1
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Please. He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

2
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: on Home of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

3
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I'm Dale Lolly here with

4
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: Matt Williamson and Matt It is mocked draft time. We

5
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: haven't used the Draft Networks mock draft here in a

6
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: while and we can't trade. Were locked in. We're locked

7
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: in with our picks. So the picks are made ahead

8
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: of us. Are they're in, They're done, and here's what

9
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: we got to pick from. Okay, I'm just gonna read

10
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: down their list of top players available. Azzolari fair enough,

11
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: Travis a t n good, Naja Harris better, Quitty pay. Okay,

12
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: I bet he's not there, but I could probably not.

13
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: Um to pick ahead of ahead of us was Jalen Phillips,

14
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, I like him better than pay. Zaven Collins available,

15
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: Christian Barmore available, Javonte Williams, who is now up the

16
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: twenty nine on their rankings. By the way player uh,

17
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: he's available. So all three running backs available, jam and Davis,

18
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: who's up to thirty on their rankings, Jason owa Landon

19
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: Dickerson's at thirty two, Caleb Farley isn't now a thirty

20
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: four ka Darius Sony Samuel caused me, that's the first

21
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: tackle that I've mentioned. I mean we could probably end

22
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: the intrigue and take naj I think that's what's going

23
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: to happen, unless you want to try to feel lucky

24
00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: and take Zaban or jam and Davis and hope one

25
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: falls to two. See that's the whole can't trade up.

26
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: We can't trade up these guys are I think you

27
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: don't take that risk. I think you gotta take him right,

28
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: and you take him, you're happy about it. He's in

29
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: both of our top twenty four. We've spent numerous hours

30
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 1: talking about the fit in the need. I got no

31
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: qualms with it whatsoever. Nausea Harris is the pick. Yeah,

32
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: good Now we don't have to worry about running back again. No,

33
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 1: that's done. That's done. Quick question for you as this goes.

34
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: If it doesn't go well, if you trade back or

35
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: you roll the dice and you you don't get one

36
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: of the top three for whatever reason. I really like

37
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: Kenneth Gainewell a little small, He's very small. I mean

38
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: he would have to be a Kamara role. Then you

39
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: then you almost have to do something, and you might

40
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: you have to do part two, like you are you

41
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: draft in Herbert and him? Or do you know what

42
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: I mean? Or Sermon or Vermonde Stephen Center, Like I

43
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 1: think there's a role for a gain Well on this offense,

44
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,519
Speaker 1: but maybe not the year. You maybe even draft that

45
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: guy next year to add him to the mix, or

46
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, Okay, our pick is up here at fifty

47
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: five the pics right ahead of us. He's it's kind

48
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: of interesting here. Joe try On at fifty, Asante Samuel

49
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: at fifty one, Creed Humphrey at fifty two. I would

50
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: like to have that option. Marie Rogers now at fifty three,

51
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: Brady Christiansen at four. He's a good football player, short arms,

52
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 1: he's old. Um he's only twenty three. It's not like

53
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: he's he's not six. Uh So the top guys available

54
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: to us here, let me get him, gonna go down

55
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: the list. Whyt Davis not for me, Ronnie Perkins, good player.

56
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 1: Gregory Rousseau. I don't love him. I don't think he

57
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: fits the system either. Joseph Asai. I would probably take

58
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: him over Rousseau strangely enough, but okay, Pat Firemouth maybe

59
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: Diamie Brown, who's gaining, is going to go around that neighborhood.

60
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: Carlos Basham. He can't reminds me of but a little bit.

61
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: Jabril Cox, Yeah, Aaron Robinson possibly Revn Jordan's. I think

62
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: Firemouth over Jordan's. Tommy Trembles at sixty four. He's rising

63
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: up um, Jamar Johnson a little bit, but makes me

64
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: think you're not getting a third round tight end. Probably not.

65
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: Jamar Johnson really good player, but I don't think it's

66
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: a twe ter second round pick. Milton Williams now sixty

67
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: seven on their board. He's right interesting, but he can't

68
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: be my second round pick with the numerous other needs.

69
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: Elijah Molden maybe Richie Grant Molden verse Friar muth is

70
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: an interesting conversation to me. I'm just gonna read down

71
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: the guys. Quinn Miners still available, Okay, probably won't be

72
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: there with our third pick, probably not, but centers don't

73
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: fly off the board. Pete Warner, I would take Cox

74
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: over Warner. I think Chess. Sar Ratte, he's a little

75
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: like Melafawanu mm hmm. Yeah. Sirette's also twenty four. By

76
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: the way, because he's a little over one quarterback that's

77
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: taking all the while to transition. Josh Meyers available wouldn't

78
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: be a bad fallback plan. I'm glad to know he's there,

79
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: I think, But I think you and I would both

80
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 1: think Green over Myers at this point, I think, so,

81
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: I assume he's still away doing bring him up? Uh,

82
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: Genarius Robinson is still available. I know you like him.

83
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 1: I do, but not in the second not that high.

84
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: I'm looking here at the top tackles available. The tackles

85
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: have been picked over pretty hard. Sounds like it. Uh,

86
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: Let's let's see who's available here. So your top guys

87
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: are Jackson Carmen, who's more of a guard. I think

88
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: he's a guard. Spencer Brown, that's and I'd love the

89
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: Steelers the grabs Fencer Brown, but I'm not taking a

90
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: set Stone Forsyth, maybe the third, James Hudson, maybe the third.

91
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 1: Deante Smith, maybe the third. Robert Hanzi out of Notre

92
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: Dame Center Walker little interesting. Um, there's some guys. There's

93
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: some guys. Let's take a look at the end terror

94
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 1: offensive line. Well, miners stood out, Um, you got White

95
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: Davis Quinn, Miners, Josh Myers, Tray Smith, Ben Cleveland, Deante Brown. Yeah. Um,

96
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: there's three names to stand out to me. Molden, the

97
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: slot corner who also has some Buddha baker to him.

98
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: Friar Muth, who would be your immediate number two tight

99
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: end and give you the mension you've lacked for a while.

100
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: And my my problem with Friar Muth is that you

101
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: have a pass catching tight end who does not block. No,

102
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if Friar Mouth can block. I think

103
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a stereotype that everyone just

104
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: assumes he's a good blocker because he's a big, rugged guy.

105
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: They've never they've never asked him. That doesn't do it right. Yeah,

106
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 1: let's take him out the equation. He would be third

107
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: on my list there too. Okay, So who's then the

108
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: linebackers are are Cox, Werner, Sarratt mcgrown, Derek Barnes, Dell

109
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: and Moses Money. Rice. Cox stands out to me of

110
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 1: that group without question. But I can't take him over Minors. No,

111
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: I can't either, because Miner Yeah you know what I mean.

112
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: I agree any other positional chalky for us to go

113
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: Harris Miners because, to be very honest, if I had

114
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: to put a chip down on a that would be

115
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: a strong what's not the trifecta, what's two out of

116
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: the in a row, whatever that's called, that would be

117
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: my chip for the first two picks. So that put

118
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: a buck on. But Molden is interesting to me too.

119
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: He is mold But there's some other like when you

120
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: start looking at those cornerbacks, there's some other guys that

121
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 1: you look out there and say, well, I could get

122
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: Robert Rochelle, for example, later in the draft, or I

123
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: can get I don't know that I need a corner

124
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: to play right now. I can get Sean Wade and

125
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: put him in the slaughter I can. You know, There's

126
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: a lot of different things I can do. It's one

127
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: thing I want to throw you too, our Derris Washington,

128
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: the TCU safety right. Could he be Mike Hilton? Potentially?

129
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: I mean he didn't test. He's smaller than Hilton. Is

130
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: he smaller than Hilton's shorter? He's smaller than um. But

131
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: I bet you could blitz him. Let me see what

132
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: they list his UM. I wonder if he could have them.

133
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: They list him at five eight hundred seventy nine pounds.

134
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: Hilton his last year here was five eight and change

135
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: in a d five pounds probably still is. Probably still

136
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: is Washington listed at a hundred seventy nine pounds. I

137
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: don't know what he tested, what he checked into this

138
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: pro day. I don't know if they've made the transitioner.

139
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: But he didn't run well. I know that. No Hilton,

140
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: but he's agile when he's little, when he's top went

141
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: undrafted too, I know, I know, I know, I'm thinking

142
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: not in this there neighborhood thinking. It just dawned on

143
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: me the other day. I like, wonder if he could

144
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: be a Hilton for this potentially, And we've looked at

145
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 1: those safeties and there's a bunch of those safeties that

146
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: have played the slot during your crew, Like, don't call

147
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: him safety, call him a slot. I'm thinking in the

148
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: fifth round. Yeah. Um, again, Molden verse Miners to me,

149
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 1: I would love that Molden to this team, but I

150
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 1: think Miners is the pick. Again. It's chalky, it's boring,

151
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: but I really like Harris Minors to start I draft. Yeah,

152
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: I agree, Um, and it gets a little redundant. I'm sorry,

153
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: but I'm still gonna take guys alike. I mean we're

154
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 1: talking about a guy that was not on their draft radar.

155
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: That the Yeah, we're taking him, Yeah, take him. He's

156
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: got a ton outside and it's it's the athletic profile.

157
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: Is its phenomenal ridiculous. Yeah, Okay, we're taking away here

158
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: down to our next pick here at seven and uh

159
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: so we filled running back and we feel sentence in

160
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: my opinion, Yeah, we've filled our two biggest needs. And

161
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if Miners is a day one starter.

162
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: I don't care with it, but I think he start

163
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: ends up starting at some point during the season. Yeah. Yeah, alright,

164
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: we're back up here. Now the top guys available, Well,

165
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: this is interesting. Pete Werner is the top. Fine. Uh,

166
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 1: then you got Davis Mills, Kellen Mond Paulson and Deebo

167
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: Stone Forsyth. That's really interesting to trace Sermon. Uh Sermon

168
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: fell to three. Yes, I would take him in the

169
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: third round. Uh, Nasal Laden the safe you at a

170
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: Florida State Elijah Griffin, it's another one of those slot

171
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: type guys at the USC Tray Smith at the Tennessee

172
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,599
Speaker 1: Benjamin st just out of Minnesota. Interesting, Hunter longbvable. That

173
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,439
Speaker 1: would be a nice fallback option. Yeah, I might be

174
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: the name I like best so far. Robert Rochelle still available,

175
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: kind of like that. Yeah, you got Keith Taylor, Cameron mcgron,

176
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: James Hudson still available, Um, Darius Washington, who who we

177
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: just talked about. Yeah, a little early form for me

178
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: considering his size. I want to just take a look

179
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: here and see what's still available. What's on the board

180
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: still at linebacker. Yeah, so you're looking at Werner, who's

181
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: by far great at ahead of everybody else that you

182
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: can understand that mcgron. I would definitely take warrener mcgron,

183
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: do you think you could sneak Derek Barnes through for

184
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: another round, because that would be a nice fallback option

185
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: if you don't, if you don't take Warner here. I

186
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: do think there's a good chance of that because then

187
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: you got Dylan Moses, Money, Rice, Charles Snowdon, Joshua Ross,

188
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 1: Garrett Wallow. They they're they're actually down on Wallow. Everybody

189
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: else is up. He's he's risen on everybody else's boards,

190
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: and I think he's actually that was a great fourth

191
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: round pick period. End of sentence. You know, Um, I'm

192
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,959
Speaker 1: just looking here as anybody else that jumps out at me.

193
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: How don't a long is jumping out at me? He

194
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: got two tackles you mentioned, Hudson and Forsyth Stone. Forsyth Hudson,

195
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: Deante Smith is still available. There walker little still available

196
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: there hard time pac. Part of me thinks, So when

197
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: it's all said and done, when the smoke clears, Day

198
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: two is gonna end, and we're gonna get a blurb

199
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: on our phone the Steelers signed Andrew or al Andrew

200
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: villain away but one year, three million dollar deals, bring

201
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: him in and let him bring him in and have

202
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: and if next year your tackles are junkie. Draft went high,

203
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not saying they're gonna ignore it, but

204
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's his higher priorities. Everyone thinks,

205
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: and I find it very peculiar that he doesn't have

206
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: a job, you know, but he's not the only offensive

207
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: tackle that's doesn't have a job right now, because I

208
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: think I think it's because of the depth at the

209
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: offensive tackles. I think teams are teams are waiting to

210
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: see what how the draft plays out, and then they'll

211
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,719
Speaker 1: make their move to Like the Colts don't have a

212
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: starting left tackle right now. The Chiefs don't have either

213
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: starting tackle right now, so they're waiting to see how

214
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: this draft goes before they Okay, we gotta go sign somebody.

215
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I know Al's agents phone has wrong. It's

216
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: not because that nobody wants a guy. I just think

217
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: there might be a handshake deal in place between Kevin

218
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 1: and Al saying, you know, there's a really good chance

219
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,599
Speaker 1: we're gonna bring you back here to compete with the

220
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: starting job. We'll see how it goes. We want you

221
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: in the room, you know, coach up the new center

222
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: and whoever else we bring in. So what do you

223
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: want to do here? Hunter Long? Can we go Hunter Long?

224
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: We can go Hunt along? He's been a long favorite

225
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: of mine. Is Yeah, I just think the rest of

226
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: if you don't go tight end here, they stink, Yeah,

227
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: you're out of the tight end. We take a six

228
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: or seven throw on tight end, and I think, in

229
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: the back of my head, but that might and I

230
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: make a team, right, you know, like, Okay, Hounter Long

231
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: as to pick Pete Werner went next, so you can

232
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: see that guy. Yeah, alright, we're taking away down here

233
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: to one twenty. And I wish the Steelers would make

234
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: a Vince Williams like signing a tight end. Yeah, I

235
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: mean they then they could get Jesse, you know, if

236
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: they signed Jesse James or someone like that, or Vince

237
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: more than Jesse. We're the guy from the Titans. I'm

238
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: blanking on his name right now. Um but really yeah,

239
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: really good run blocking tight end. Not much of a receiver,

240
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: but that's what you need at the position. It's fine.

241
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: I mean an NFL player that is established. Okay, here

242
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: we are round four pick top guys available, Andre Cisco interesting, Yeah,

243
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: Hamil Shard, hamilcar Rashid for Monday, Stevenson still available. They're interesting,

244
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: that's yeah. Yeah. Taking I'm obviously uh oh. And the

245
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: Beijo uh big, but I can't pronounce it. To get

246
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 1: the edge from Vanderbilt, we've never talked about him. I'm

247
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 1: not sure if he's an edge or if he's eventually

248
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 1: a Hayward. I mean he's too eighty ish. Yeah, he's

249
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:18,559
Speaker 1: six six to six they listened to six. Probably a

250
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: little too long to play. I don't know if he

251
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: be bulk up to be. He might not be a

252
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: Steeler because he's probably a four three edge guy. The

253
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: other thing, too, is um and so Sheldon Richardson got released.

254
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: We knew that was coming. With the Clowney thing, there

255
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: you go. I mean, you helped yourself at one and

256
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: now you've created another one and you've a big hole

257
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: where you didn't need one in a bad draft for

258
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: for defensive tackles right right right where Edges lined up,

259
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: really nice, just to add clowney. I'm not sure it

260
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: made you better. Um, what the hell we were saying

261
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: something about a day in. Oh. Yeah, we just haven't

262
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: brought him up because I think he's really intriguing. The

263
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: more I think about, I just don't think he fits.

264
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: He blew his a c is Achilles out like two

265
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: months ago, so he's like to play it all this year.

266
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't help you, doesn't help you at all.

267
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: But if he's sitting around the sixth round, for anybody,

268
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: there's a lot to work with. There was a there

269
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: was a guy I can't I can't remember who the

270
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: player was now off the top of my head. Um,

271
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: but it was after day two of the draft of

272
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: one year and he was still available and he was

273
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: a considered a first round talent. This is like, this

274
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: is when Tom Donahoe was still the Steelers GM, and

275
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: there was, but he was injured. There were three or

276
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: four of us sitting around talking with Donahoe just back

277
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: in the in the in the Steelers lunch room. Yeah,

278
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: after day two, and I said what about this guy? Um?

279
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: And he said, well, he's hurt. And I said, yeah,

280
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: but what if you could get him in like the

281
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: seventh round just to take a flyer and give him

282
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: a red shirt here. It's not a bad idea, but

283
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: somebody else ended up doing it, and I think he

284
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: ended up being, you know, doing you know, was hanging

285
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: around the league for five or six years. As you're

286
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: telling that story, I'm sitting there Donahoe draft Wheels Beaey

287
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: in the first round after he blew out his knee

288
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: in the National Championship game. Yeah, pretty sure he did,

289
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: you know. Um, let's see what are we doing here.

290
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: We've got three picks on the boarder. I'm looking here.

291

292
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,440

Speaker 1: able to wait at any tackles. Let's take a look

Speaker 1: the top. They're gone, They're gone. Yeah. The top guy

00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: available now is Dan Moore out of Texas A and

303
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: M down calling out. Um, Josh Ball is still available,

304
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: but he's a project. And there's some of them and

305
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: I don't remember what I don't know what the off

306
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: the field stuff is, but I keep reading that there's

307
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: off the field statum, which means fifth round pick to

308
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,719
Speaker 1: me not Yeah, I'm not jumping on that right now.

309
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: But let's look at the I just gonna say, let's

310
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: look at edge. We haven't taken a linebacker. That's a

311
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: bigger need. Uh. Rashid Uh from Oregon State, the Vanderbilt

312
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: Patrick Jones, Ogan dej from Notre Dame, Dalen Hayes from

313
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: Natter Dame Notre Dame, Rashad Weaver, Chauncey Golston, Jonathan Cooper,

314
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: Allison Smith Shaka, Tony Patrick Johnson, Why you were those

315
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: Malcolm Coon's still available. So there's some guys there that,

316
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,479
Speaker 1: you know, if we need a number three edge. I mean,

317
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: I'm reacting probably too much to mel putting Coon's in

318
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: the second round. But I start to think that maybe

319
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: he's better than we thought he was. You know that

320
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: I might have brushed him off with the preconceived notion

321
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: that he's a fourth fifth rounder when really he's the third.

322
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 1: Here's what's left it inside linebacker or off ball, Dylan Moses,

323
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: I'm not really interested in going down that road. Money Rice,

324
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: that's he's all right, Yeah, Charles Snowden might be more

325
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 1: edge guys tall, Tony Field, Joshua Ross, Garrett Wallo, Ernest Jones,

326
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: Wallow and Rice would be the two I like best

327
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: of that. I mean, Rice is right, is probably a

328
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: little bit better athletes, a little bit bigger too. Um,

329
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: he might be a starter. Yeah. Now you've taken some

330
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: of that need off the board with the signing, like

331
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: the the extreme need that you know two weeks ago

332
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: we think Hunter Long. Now you've got a little more

333
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: depth there. This guy is not going to be necessarily

334
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 1: expect because all things being equal, Vince probably starts the

335
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 1: season as the starter, probably unless the SS take a

336
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: second round pick. Yeah, the guy that can't believe that.

337
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: So you take a you take a guy like Monty

338
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: Rice for as an athlete, and you say, okay, and

339
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: you hope maybe by week eate he's a starter, or

340
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,719
Speaker 1: you know, even if he takes a year. I mean

341
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: we're talking about a fourth round draft pick here. Vince

342
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: is only gonna this is gonna play one more year,

343
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: so you gotta fill that spot, you know. Yeah. Yeah,

344
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: there's a lot of names that I liked. I mean,

345
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: Trey Brown is a slot corners pretty valuable to me.

346
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: It's a lot of corners there. Though. I think there's

347
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: more corners available that I like than linebackers. And I

348
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: think there's more edge available than true linebackers. Yeah, the

349
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: edge was not a priority after the late listening to

350
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: the names, and same with tackle. Let me just look

351
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: at one thing, you're yeah, the safety classes. It's Cisco,

352
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: Jacobe stevens uh half and Nana from USC Wiggins. I

353
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: think Cisco is more of a free yeah, bled So

354
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: from Missouri. So yeah, I was just looking to see

355
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: if the Virginia Tech kid was still available, that would

356
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: be interesting. He's gone. He's gone. Um So what did

357
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:49,239
Speaker 1: that come down to? Inside linebacker verse corner? I think

358
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:54,199
Speaker 1: so down to I think you take Rice. That can

359
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: be convinced. There's a lot of corners there, and you're

360
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: gonna have a hard time convinced me not to go

361
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: corner with the next pick though. Yeah, oh no, I know,

362
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: but yeah, I think Rice. I'm fine with it. You know,

363
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: you get a younger, faster version of Vince Williams. Yeah,

364
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 1: sec player that he could beat out of Vincent week

365
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 1: one two. I don't think that's crazy, or at least

366
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: in some packages, right, you know, all right, let's make

367
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: that to pick in we haven't. I don't think we've

368
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,399
Speaker 1: ever taken money, right, I don't think so either. But

369
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: he's our type of guy, I mean before he's would

370
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: be a great special team or and yeah, that goes

371
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: that's say, okay, we're taking down. We're back here on

372
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: the clock at one forty. Uh, let's see what corners

373
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: are available. Trey Brown, the top guy, Rhre, Darius Williams, Ambree, Thomas,

374
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 1: Marco Wilson. Yeah, to be happy if any of those

375
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 1: guys carry Vincent Brown, is my favorite of those. Yeah,

376
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: because he might be your starting slot, right might be? Um, even,

377
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: let's just do it. Okay, that's the pick. Remember when

378
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: we could get him in around seven? I was thinking stealing. Yeah,

379
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 1: things change when people catch up. We should go back

380
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: and listen to the show from a month ago. Boy,

381
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: we'll take that draft. They Quentin Miners in round six

382
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: and Trey Brown around seven. Right, so we got we

383
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: have a tight end actually, which is we actually got

384
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: a tight end, which you we usually don't end up

385
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: getting here, um hoping, you know, we're down into the

386
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: two hundred here and Edges Ellerson, Smith's Shaka Tony still available,

387
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: Patrick Johnson still available. Toy and Johnson are pretty good players.

388
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: Why are Hubert still available? So there's some guys there

389
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: that might be the pig we're that. We're up at

390
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: two sixteen. The top guys available are Semihoko the wide receiver,

391
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 1: Stanford Cornell Powell out of Clemson. I like both those guys.

392
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: I was about to say, I went would consider a

393
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Patrick Johnson is the next guy on the list.

394
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: The Edge Restaurant a Tulane like him a lot. Why

395
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: Hubert the Edge at Kansas State. Malcolm Kount's still available.

396
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: That would be hard for me pass on. Um all

397
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: those there's a whole bunch of wide receivers. Josh Kando

398
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: is still available to Ali Kaneo too. I think I

399
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: take Coons out of that group. But there was three

400
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: or four edge you man, there's some good edges there. Yeah,

401
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's some. I mean, Tony is a

402
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: good player. He's not available anymore. Yeah, he got taken. Yeah,

403
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 1: he just got taken. Johnson and Coons are both Johnson

404
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: and Koons are are a pretty good That's nice value

405
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: there and gladly taking the one on at that spot. Um. Yeah,

406
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what hope between him and from most two.

407
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: That's a tough one. Here's the thing I didn't get

408
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: to see, like Coonston do any of the offseason work on,

409
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 1: which is judging strictly off of his tape, which is good,

410
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: and his tape is great, but it's against MAC school. Now,

411
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: I trust that they'll know more about guys from the

412
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: MAC than most other team. Patrick Johnson, you could make

413
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: the same argument. Okay, he had a lot of production,

414
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 1: but it was a tolane Yeah, and he had another

415
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: guy on the other side, it was pretty good too.

416
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,719
Speaker 1: I like both and and even here on their ratings. Uh,

417
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: the overall ratings Johnson's one seventour, So you I mean

418
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: they're super super close. It's a coin flip your call,

419
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: flip something. Let's stay Koons, okay? Or is that I mean?

420
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: I guess I could see a tiebreaker in the room

421
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: coming down to who do we think is better on

422
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: special teams, you know something like that. I think Uns

423
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: might run. I don't know, I don't. I just don't know.

424
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 1: With with those two guys I'm looking. I wonder if

425
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: Coons would have ran a four or five one and

426
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: then he's not even available to you. Here's the I

427
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: think you're going to see more UM this year than

428
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: maybe ever before. You hear them talking about GPS is

429
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: on the we might even talk about forties, right, how

430
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: fast is he on the football feet because that's what

431
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: really matters is in pads chasing people. Yeah, I was

432
00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: thinking it's funny about that up because I was thinking

433
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: about this on away here that like when you run

434
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: a forty you stop. You think I've been practicing this.

435
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: It's almost like coming to the free throw line where

436
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: GPS is how fast you play on the basketball court

437
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: when the balls bouncing all over the place and you

438
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: gotta set a pick and how many false steps? Do

439
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Let's takes. Yeah, yeah, it's fun.

440
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: All right, we're taking away here. Now is a receiver.

441
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: Now we can do anything. We can do anything. I

442
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: would even consider a scat back. Let's second running back.

443
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: Would there be a bad thing, some kind of weapon. Um,

444
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: if there was a quarterback out there that I can't

445
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: believe it's still available, that's when I would take it.

446
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: I can. I mean, if there's a guard that I

447
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: can't believes available, I consider them. You just look at

448
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: the over was there I couldn't. Okay, they believe it

449
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: or not. There are some good ones here. Um A

450
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: mirror Smith Marcella the wide receiver out of Iowa who

Speaker 1: Milne the wide receiver out of b y U. Trey Norwood,

464
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,080

465
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: Racy McMath is a guy watch receiver at l s

466

469
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: Quind of interesting. Um. I mean if he's only a

470
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 1: special team or your old life and plays five snaps

471
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,719
Speaker 1: a game, he's interesting. I mean there's some guys here

472
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,719
Speaker 1: in this in this area then and Johnson, the two

473
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: receivers to me are pretty darn interesting. You need you

474
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: need nothing from him? This year. But what if there's

475
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: an injury, they could get in your top four easily.

476
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 1: Darren Hall still available from San Diego State. Another guy

477
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: there that my three favorites are Rump and the two

478
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: receivers I mentioned. I'm just looking here and just just

479
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: jumping out at you. Those are really the safety You

480
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: can't believe they're those. I mean, we just took an edge,

481
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: so I don't know that we can take back to

482
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: back edge. And you assigned marsh Well probably if we

483
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: we got another pick coming up at two fifty four,

484
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: But if we pass on the wide receiver here, we

485
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: may not get them. I like those two a lot.

486
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: I mean, which one do you like better? Johnson is

487
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: a little bigger. He's a little bigger pure slot. Darden's

488
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: more lean, more explosive, faster, Yeah, but smaller, I mean

489
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: not just a little smaller, lot smaller. I kind of

490
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: like Johnson there. Yeah, I gotta think you know, worst

491
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: he's your return guy, right. I don't know Juju will

492
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 1: be back after this year. I don't I don't know.

493
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: It might be your starting slode receiver a year from now. Yeah,

494
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: I'm cool with that. Okay, let's take k Johnson good value. Yeah,

495
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: I didn't play this past year, but I don't care.

496
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: You know, it might be the reasons still available. We're

497
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: up at two fifty four. Uh, the Iowa receiver still there,

498
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: Saint Churette, Josh Kando still available? Consider Kando. UM, just

499
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: looking at Gowan's still available? Um, what would Gowan do

500
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: for us? That's a good question. Um. You know he's

501
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: a six two eighty five pound outside corner. Um. I mean,

502
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: he could be your next justin Lane. You know that

503
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: they have a history of drafting those guys that are

504
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: long and going back to Ike Taylor that don't do

505
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 1: anything their first year, and then we see what happens.

506
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: I'd be okay to say, I'm look, I'm reading here

507
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: on the many Regamba the guy. The kid is from Miami, Ohio.

508
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,919
Speaker 1: Uh started eleven games in his career early on at

509
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 1: Iowa and then transferred to Ohio. UM will be all

510
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: over this guy. I mean, UM, what's his dimensions? He's

511
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: five eleven, so decent enough side he might be outside

512
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: inside version. Um. Somebody who need to know more about him? Yeah,

513
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: I need say I'm reading what their thing here that

514
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: says on him. Uh. Developmental Nickel cornerback. We just took

515
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: a nickel though attacking pressman scheme cover one. That's what

516
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: we want, that's what we want to play a ton

517
00:28:55,360 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 1: of that. I might not be opposed to take that

518
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: guy unless you think you can sneak him through. There's

519
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: only like six picks after us. Mhm um, I'm fine

520
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: with it. There wasn't another guy that was like, boy,

521
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: I have to have him. I mean, Kando is interesting.

522
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: He is. He's a pedigree guy on edge. I think

523
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: he's I think he might be more of a four

524
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: three because he's so tall and lanky. Um, he's to

525
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 1: sixty ish. Yeah, and he's six seven is six seven?

526
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: He's six seven, Yeah, he's tall. Um, I'm fine with

527
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 1: the Miami corner. Let's take him. We've never he's we've

528
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: never taken him on him. I mean I would consider

529
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: throwing any kind of offensive linement into the mixture too. Yeah. Okay,

530
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: so token late round guy. Our picks we took Nause Harris,

531
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,840
Speaker 1: our first two or Choc is gonna be Quinn Miners.

532
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you and I would take as

533
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,479
Speaker 1: we sit here on April sixteenth or whatever, you had

534
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: sacrifice and pick for those two players right now. We've

535
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: got Hunter. Yeah, we got a Hunter Long at seven.

536
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: That's outside our norm, but I like it. Monty Rice

537
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: at he'sould be a good steeler. Yeah, Trey Brown at

538
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: one forty This are I kind of liked. We didn't

539
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: all right in this neighborhood. Malcolm Coon's at to sixteen

540
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: to forty five. We took k Johnson. That's a BOONUS prize,

541
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: we usually and then we took Manny Rogamba um project

542
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 1: corner at two. Yeah. But he's not little, not little.

543
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: He can you know, he's he's got the same basically

544
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: the same size as Cam Sutton. Yeah, I say he

545
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: has a lot of suttons, whereas you know, you know,

546
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: when you look at Trey Brown, he's he's he's five

547
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: nine five pounds, you know, he's that's what he is. Yeah.

548
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: He's not line up outside ever. Yeah, but he might

549
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: line up this year for US. He might. Yeah, he

550
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: was probably a little more polished in Thangamba the Miami

551
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: Dude Screams practice squad. Yeah just fine. Yeah, unless he's

552
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 1: a great special teams player special, but he'll played a

553
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: lot in the preseason. See if you can line up outside,

554
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: if you can't. That doesn't mean you're overall for him.

555
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: In fact, if he looks bad in the preseason, so

556
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: what that means nobody else gonna sign him? Right? But anyway,

557
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 1: that's that's that's not bad. That's not that's not a

558
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: bad draft. I kind of like that one honer along

559
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: to me kind of stands boy, all of the tight

560
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: ends they've invested in lately in the draft or you know,

561
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: they're long shot types and they often do that. This

562
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,479
Speaker 1: was a little different that this guy might be at

563
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: snap a game guy for the next two or three years. Yeah,

564
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: that's not bad at all. So that that's gonna do

565
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: it for this segment on another fun draft for us,

566
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: and we're running out of mock draft. What do you

567
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: know left? Not many left, but that's the latest one.

568
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: So for my partner Matt Williamson for Jacob Rick here

569
