That was pretty goot set up. 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: We're back to like, we're back. 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 4: To we're series. 19 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: We mean business today it is a thirty six ish 20 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: called thirty eight hours out from the NFL Draft, the 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: beginning of the first round of the NFL Draft, and uh, 22 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: this is uh, this is exciting that hey is in 23 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: the barn for the most part, I always like, there's 24 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: always like two or three guys at the very end 25 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: that I just feel like I gotta I get an 26 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: itch and I'm like, I gotta do these guys something. 27 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: My gut is telling me that they might take one 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: of these guys. But in general, we're getting closer to 29 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft finally, thankfully, how we can start with 30 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: stop with all the pre draft nonsense and actually get 31 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: into the players that they actually pick. The Patriots actually pick, 32 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: I should say, so that is really exciting. But before 33 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: we find out who they are actually going to pick, 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: over the next three days, we have to do one 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: more draft preview shows. So we didn't do enough draft 36 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: preview shows over the last four months, so we have 37 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: to do a whole nother one for the next two hours. 38 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: So we'll get into some of the news that's come out, 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: and I will say it's a now pretty well known 40 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: line by Bill Belichick in his media year that these 41 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: twenty four to forty eight hours are when some of 42 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: the real information about the draft starts to come out. 43 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: You know, we hear a lot of smoking mirrors for 44 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: months in the lead up to the draft, but now 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: that the teams have set the board and they kind 46 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: of know what their expectations are. Heading in we start 47 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: to hear some real information. We also start to hear 48 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: a lot more about potential trades at this point. This 49 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: is when again the board is set, the trades start 50 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,119 Speaker 1: to come in, they start to field calls. So we'll 51 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: get to all of that good stuff as well, but 52 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: before we really get rolling here, support the home team. 53 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: Join New England's events staff here at Jillette Stadium.

I also want to you know, 66 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: get into some of the Patriots specific news, but also 67 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: some of just the general first round NFL news here 68 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: that's starting to trickle out as well, And we also 69 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: are going to share my first time I have not 70 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: put a top ten mock draft out, so this will 71 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: be my first top ten mock draft, so I also 72 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 1: want to put that out here today as well. And Alex, 73 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: I know you've done a couple, but this will be 74 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: your your final top ten mock draft. Now you're going 75 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: to share here on the show today, So that's the 76 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: agenda of course, all your calls and Emil as well. 77 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: But I want to start off the top with just 78 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: sort of the feeling right now around the Patriots. I 79 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: think the overwhelming favorite is Will Campbell with the fourth 80 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: overall pick. It almost feels like it's Campbell or the 81 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: field at this point. If you're a person that wants 82 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: to place a friendly wager on what the Patriots are 83 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: going to do tomorrow night, those are seem to be 84 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: your two options. I would say that the dark horses 85 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: remains Jalen Walker. I think he's probably the biggest dark 86 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: horse candidate, and then the sneaky super dark horse candidate 87 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: is Ash and Genty. Right, those three guys, I feel 88 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: like are really what we're talking about here, But at 89 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: this hour, Diana Russini, just about an hour ago, she is, 90 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, publishing reports about all of the different teams 91 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: in the top ten. It seems like she has the 92 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: Patriots taking calls for the fourth overall pick. Now, there's 93 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: a big difference between taking calls and actually having real 94 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: conversations about the pick. 95 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 3: You know. 96 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: I go back to last year Hard Knocks. We saw 97 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: Elliott Wolf and Joe Shane of the New York Giants 98 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: interacting on the phone about the third overall pick last year, 99 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: and it was, yeah, like, unless you're gonna give us 100 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: something absolutely crazy for the pick, we we're gonna stick 101 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: and pick Drake May and we feel good about taking 102 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: the quarterback. So sometimes those calls are short lived. But 103 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: I still ultimately come back to the best case scenario 104 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: for the Patriots is obviously the trade down and still 105 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: get their guy, right. I don't know if that's realistic 106 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: in multiple fronts. I don't know if Will Campbell will 107 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: still be there. I don't know if the trade down 108 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: will materialize, But if they could trade down within the 109 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: top ten and still draft either Will Campbell or Armand 110 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: Membu or even Kelvin Banks. I feel like that's a 111 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: pretty good way to go about this right now, at 112 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: this hour. How do you feel about where the Patriots 113 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: are at? 114 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, look, a trade down would be great. 115 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 5: I've said this, although the one thing I don't want 116 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 5: to see them do. And there was a report I 117 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 5: think it was Jordan Schultz this morning. I'll see if 118 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 5: I can find it that was basically like the teams 119 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,119 Speaker 5: taking calls on the picks at the top of the draft, 120 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 5: and this was even about the Browns and Giants, who 121 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 5: are obviously in a pretty good position with the two 122 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:11,559 Speaker 5: blue chip players there. 123 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 3: He had said that those calls were I thought it 124 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 3: was Schultz. I guess not. 125 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 5: We're coming in for I think the verbigs was seventy 126 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 5: cents on the dollar. 127 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, so what I don't want. 128 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 5: To see the Patriots? Do you hear it is Jordan Schultz? 129 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 5: Several teams picking in the top ten are opening trading down. 130 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 5: The challenge has been finding teams willing to move up. 131 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 5: Per sources. From what I'm hearing, there isn't a strong 132 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 5: push to trade up this year at the top, especially 133 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 5: if it means giving up significant value that aligns with 134 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 5: traditional charts. As one source put it, quote, the current 135 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 5: offers are seventy cents on the dollar. A trade down 136 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 5: would be great, especially I think Instill Go one of 137 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 5: those tackles. 138 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 3: Trade down be great. 139 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 5: I'm not saying I don't want it, but what I 140 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 5: don't want is for them to give the pickaway. 141 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: Sure, I don't. 142 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 5: I think there are some people who would be more 143 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 5: comfortable with the trade back because they're nervous about this 144 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 5: class overall. Understandable, it's not a great class. They're nervous 145 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 5: about this class overall, and they'd rather miss at nine 146 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 5: or ten than miss at four, because then at least 147 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 5: you can tell you yourself you've got something else back. 148 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: Okay, if all. 149 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 5: You got back is a third round pick one, you're 150 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 5: still getting a lesser player. 151 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: If you move back. 152 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 5: I don't think Campbell's getting to ten. And if he does, 153 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 5: what does that say about kind of how he's viewed 154 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 5: by the league. So you're still getting a lesser player. 155 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 5: Does a third round pick make that much of a 156 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 5: difference at the end of the day. And I know 157 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 5: Elliot Wolf is here, but for all intents and purposes, 158 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 5: it's a new regime. The first selection of the new 159 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 5: regime and you're gonna bargain sell it. That's a tough 160 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 5: president to set because now you're the organization that gives 161 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 5: away draft picks like Halloween candy. So, like, I don't 162 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 5: want to see if they get a good trade, I. 163 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: Want them to take it. 164 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 5: And that's ultimately what would be the best case scenario 165 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 5: is if they get a good trade. What I don't 166 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 5: want is them to sell the pick, just to sell 167 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 5: the pick and take a lesser player because they felt 168 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 5: like they had a trade down because they just weren't 169 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 5: comfortable at four. 170 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with everything that you just said in 171 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: terms of the value of a trade down. We've both agreed. 172 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: And I know that some people are gonna say, oh, 173 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: you were a Campbell guy the whole time, you didn't 174 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: want to trade down. No, we've both agreed that, yeah, 175 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: a trade down is the best case scenario for it. 176 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 5: I just don't think it's going to be there their 177 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 5: best their best case scenario. And I almost put this 178 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 5: in my maw draft on Sunday, and you and some 179 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 5: other people talk me out of it, said it was 180 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 5: two unrealistic, And now it's all the rave the most 181 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 5: like because so I put together my last NFL mock 182 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 5: and it I usually as you do, usually do too, 183 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 5: Like I usually do a trade down mock or trade 184 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 5: up or trade down. Yeah, the last few years has 185 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 5: been trade down. I just do a trade down mock 186 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 5: every year just to kind of be like, hey, this 187 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 5: is what that scenario might look like. There really wasn't 188 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 5: a trade until we got this reporting on Monday after 189 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 5: it was published that felt realistic. But the two I 190 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 5: was working on were the Panther is coming up from 191 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 5: eight to get ted McMillan, and the Bears coming up 192 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 5: from ten to get genty. If they make a deal, 193 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 5: I think it's the Bear coming up from ten because 194 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 5: the Bears are in this unique position where they have 195 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 5: thirty nine and forty one. I believe it's the last 196 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 5: pick to relay from that Bryce Young trade a couple 197 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 5: years ago. 198 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: I don't know if they have another, but this has 199 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: to be towards the end of that. 200 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 5: But they have an ext They have the Panthers first 201 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 5: round pick or second round pick, so they would maybe 202 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 5: be a little more willing to part with that. The 203 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 5: deal I had was the Bears go ten the second 204 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 5: of those two seconds, which is forty one and then 205 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 5: a future second and the idea behind it basically being 206 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 5: and I'll ask I'll pose this to you as a question. Heaven, 207 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 5: we talked about the quarterback tax all the time. When 208 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 5: teams are trading up, you got to pay more than 209 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 5: the pick is worth because it's quarterbacks that valuable. 210 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: Of a position. 211 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 5: In this draft where there really aren't any quarterbacks and 212 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 5: there's just such a lack of blue chip talent ash 213 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 5: and Genty albeit the fact he's a running back. Is 214 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 5: there going to be a blue chip talent, blue chip tax, Yeah. 215 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: In this draft. 216 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 5: And maybe it's not as much as the quarterback tax, 217 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 5: but is the way the Patriots maximize ash values gent 218 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 5: in the draft, not by taking him, but by using 219 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 5: him as bait to flip a trade. 220 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: So it's exactly where I wanted to go next. So 221 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: he read my mind. Yeah, it sounds to me like 222 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: there's enough of a market for Ashton Genty that to 223 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: your exact point, they could orchestrate a trade with basically 224 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: trading Genty. Right, You're gonna trade Genty to the Chicago Bears, 225 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: potentially to the Las Vegas Raiders. Maybe they want to 226 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: jump Jacksonville because they think Jacksonville is gonna take Genty 227 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: at five, so they come in and they jump Jacksonville. 228 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: I think that that's really now if you are hoping 229 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: for the trade down, if you're a Patriots fan, what 230 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: you're hoping for is that some team is so in 231 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: love with Ashton Genty that they were going to make 232 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: that trade happen and they're going to move up to 233 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: four to come and get him. We had a lot 234 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: of conversations about doing this exact thing for Travis Hunter 235 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: or Abdul Carter or whatever the case may be. Well, 236 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: Peter Schrager was kind of the first one on this 237 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: that said that teams have three guys in mind that 238 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: they could potentially trade up for adding Ashton Genty to 239 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: that of those other two in terms of the trio. 240 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: If the Patriots can get out of four because Ashon 241 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: Genty is such a draw to trade into four, then 242 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: that's good news for the Patriots. But the question that 243 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: I would ask is do the teams really feel like 244 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: they need to go all the way up to four 245 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: to get Genty? Could you go out to five to 246 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: Jacksonville and still get Genty? Because everybody in the league, 247 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that this information is one hundred 248 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 1: percent accurate. I think it was also Schrager who said, 249 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: you know, he tried to poke around New England and 250 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: he couldn't get anybody to talk in Foxborough about what 251 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna do at four overall, but if we just 252 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: believe all the tea leaves, and I think it was 253 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: Jeremy Fowler who said that the Patriots might have an 254 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: infatuation with Will Campbell, So maybe the league knows that 255 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: this draft is going can Ward, Travis Hunter, Abdull Carter, 256 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: Will Campbell, and the Patriots are kind of locked into 257 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: Will Campbell at four, so there would be no reason 258 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: to go all the way up to four for Genteel, Right, 259 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: that's the devil's advocage, especially. 260 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 5: When you have your nerd guy at five with the 261 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 5: Jags and he doesn't care what players on the board. 262 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 5: If you can show him on the chart that the 263 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 5: picks you're giving him are worth warning picks he's giving up, 264 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,239 Speaker 5: he's gonna do the trade. 265 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 1: Regardless of what he wants to take. 266 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 3: Well, that's an easier deal to mate. 267 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought that up, because that's the other 268 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: thing that I can't. And I've been texting you about 269 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: this off the air. I can't get over this feeling 270 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: of you're telling me that probably one of you know, 271 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: really an analytics guru, is running the Jacksonville Jaguars. Like 272 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: it's the same as all of the nerds in baseball 273 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: that get crapped on by people like you and people 274 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: like Matt McCarthy and the rest of your brethren, people 275 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: who actually enjoy watching sports. Yeah, all you got, And 276 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: I say that with love all of you guys, you know, 277 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: come at the nerds and baseball. Gladstone's basically that, but 278 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: in football of course, right, that's what he is. Yeah, 279 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: And so you're telling me, in his very first draft 280 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: as a general manager in the NFL for the Jacksonville Jaguars, 281 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: his very first draft, he is going to buck the 282 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: one analytical trend that every single nerd is dead set on, 283 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: which is that running backs don't matter. And he's going 284 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: to take a running back at five overall. And that's 285 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: right now. That is the consensus pick for the Jaguars 286 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: is action Mason Graham. For a while, I feel like 287 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: it's it's the last you know, this week, the mocks 288 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: that have been posted by the people that are in 289 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: the know. You know, the the Schrager Mack. I think 290 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: he had Genty there at five. 291 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: Ye, the Schrager Mak's usually pretty good. 292 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: Those people are saying it's Genty. And the other team 293 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: that has reportedly infatuated with ash and Gent is the 294 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 1: same team who's head coach was at the league meetings 295 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: in a month ago talking about pass epa being the 296 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: most important stat in football. And now you're telling me 297 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: that the Chicago Bears and Ben Johnson are going to 298 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: trade up for Ashton Gent. So when the Chicago Bears 299 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: have DeAndre Swift under content, oh, and I can actually 300 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: justify because the Lions thing, because the Lions can't you 301 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: nerd if you're going to take Ashton Genty in trade 302 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: up picks to take Ashton Gent. 303 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 5: The Lions did it because they had success in doing it. 304 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: Swift is on a one year deal, but yeah, a 305 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: twenty year deal. 306 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 5: He's sorry, he's on a two year deal, but it's 307 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 5: there's an out after this year, So Swift's gone after 308 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 5: this year. And because they have the offensive line to 309 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 5: justify it. 310 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: I think some of the. 311 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 5: Moves they've made this offseason, I think they're as close 312 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 5: as anybody up there. 313 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 3: That is the offensive line to justify it. 314 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 5: The Bears, I think you can make an argument for 315 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 5: I know Ben Jonson's a nerd, and they don't like 316 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 5: running guys the way they operated in Detroit. I think 317 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 5: he may be one of these nerds that is a 318 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 5: little softer on the running back thing than everybody else. 319 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 5: The Bears would not surprise me. The Jacks are the 320 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 5: reasons you're saying would surprise me. But you will disown 321 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 5: that guy so fast from the nerd community. 322 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: If they take him. If you take a running this 323 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: is what you you you if yours until they do 324 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: dumb nerd stuff and then you just own them and 325 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: you say because not like but that's what they all do. 326 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: But this isn't that's not nerd them. You you you 327 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: went against everything that we believe in. 328 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 5: What if the math is telling him to take Chencey. 329 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 5: I can't imagine the math math has just created to 330 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 5: proven argument. It's like how everybody, universally turnovers were bad 331 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 5: until a couple of years ago. People wanted to explain 332 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 5: away Josh Allen's they created some math that said turnovers 333 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 5: aren't actually that bad. 334 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: Okay, but I'm gonna leave that. 335 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 5: Maybe he's just maybe he created a new formula that 336 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 5: tells him to say, you. 337 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: Look at running backs, and that the the entire discourse 338 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: around then then running backs with the analytics people. A 339 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: lot of the reason why analytics people are anti running 340 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: back is because they're interchanged. Right, Statistically, there's only a 341 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: handful of guys that truly make a difference. Sakuon Barkley, Healthy, 342 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, Derrick Henry. Like we're talking about three to 343 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: five guys I would say in the league that truly 344 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: make a difference. 345 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 5: Well, I think if you're taking ash and Genty that high, 346 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 5: you believe he's one of those. 347 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: Okay, but it's not just that, right, that's the main 348 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: reason I would say that's like seventy five percent, sixty 349 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: to seventy five percent. The other reasons are career longevity 350 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: in prime shelf life, and Derrick Henry has bucked this trend. 351 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: He's going on ten years. But Derek Henry's a tank. 352 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is huge. Yeah, Derek Henry's an alien. I 353 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: don't think that Ashon Denty at five eight, two hundred 354 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: and eleven pounds is the same thing as saying that 355 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: Derreck Henry, who's built like a defensive end playing running back, 356 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: is going to have the same career longevity in terms 357 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: of his prime And the last thing is obviously contract 358 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: value and the fact that if you draft Genty at 359 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: five overall, you are going to be paying him like 360 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: a top five running back in the league immediately based 361 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: off the market. So is it the most valuable pick 362 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: that you could make? And if he decides to go 363 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: against all of that years of research and data that 364 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,360 Speaker 1: all of his fellow nerds have put together and takes Genty, 365 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: then he is not a true nerd. You're not doing it. 366 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: You're not doing it right. That's not it. And then 367 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 1: I would say the same thing. 368 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 5: For him, create a new data, because that's what these 369 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 5: guys do. They create data to back up what they want. 370 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: Sure, sure, But for the Patriots, as it pertains to 371 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: the Patriots with the fourth overall pick, the hope is 372 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: is that some team is so in love with Ash 373 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: and Denty that they can trade out of the fourth 374 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: overall pick, get picks back, and then maybe still pick 375 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: their guy Will Campbell as it sounds now my question 376 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: to you, And then we'll move off this. Does will 377 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: Campbell make it to eight to ten? You know, let's 378 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: say they trade out with Chicago and they go from 379 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: four to ten. Is he going to be there at ten? 380 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: And if he isn't, you know, what is your cluster? Like, 381 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: what's your stack? Because you have to have multiple options 382 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: there at ten. I don't I actually think that there 383 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: are options. I don't really hate, but I'm just interested 384 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: to hear, like, who are like the three or four 385 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: guys that you would be comfortable with at ten? 386 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 3: So with Campbell, I don't know. 387 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 5: I mean, there's a case to be made that the 388 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 5: Jags could take him if they're worried about what's gonna 389 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 5: happen with Qul. 390 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 3: Not the Jags, this case to be made. 391 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 5: The Lions could wow, oh my god, the Bears, No, 392 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 5: the Raiders, the Raiders, this case made. The Raiders could 393 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 5: take him if they're not comfortable with Colton Miller. The 394 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 5: Bears certainly, well, if they're trading up in the scenari, 395 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 5: they're trading up for Gente Center, gonna take them. 396 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: I think the Jets. 397 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,239 Speaker 5: We're all assuming the Jets are going to take arm 398 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 5: on Membu because they clearly need a right tackle and 399 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 5: he's a right tackle. Are we giving the Jets too 400 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 5: much credit for making the obvious pick? You know, we've 401 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 5: spent so much time on worrying about Membo going from 402 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 5: right to left. It would be so Jets to need 403 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 5: a right tackle and then take Campbell and try to 404 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 5: move them from left to right, which would make no sense. 405 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:04,919 Speaker 3: But again it's New York Jets. 406 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: Well, Joe All just did it, so yeah, but there's 407 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: a right tackle right there, I know, but it you know, 408 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: and it makes sense when the Chargers did it either 409 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 1: that Joe All is going to make teams think it's possible, 410 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: I guess, Butrarn Membing is right there. 411 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 5: And then I also look at the Niners at eleven 412 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 5: and the Dolphins at thirteen. Now, the Dolphins will probably 413 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 5: just draft whoever ran the fastest forty because that's what 414 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 5: they do. But like if they were smart, the Dolphins 415 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 5: desperately need offensive line help. The Niners could use a 416 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 5: tackle Trent Williams as year to year. So you know, 417 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 5: if you trade down to ten, those teams are at 418 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 5: eleven and thirteen, do they jump you and move up 419 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 5: to nine with the Saints or eight with Carolina I 420 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 5: was talking to Philip Perry yesterday. You could make a case, 421 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 5: and I don't know it's the most likely thing, but 422 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 5: it's a realistic scenario that Campbell, Membou and Banks all 423 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 5: go before ten if you trade back, yeah, and it 424 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 5: would probably take another trade up to get there, but 425 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 5: you run that risk. So what would the stack be 426 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 5: for me if Campbell go, You could sell me on 427 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 5: Membo or Banks. They're one A, one B. You're taking 428 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 5: risks with both of them. It's just kind of again 429 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 5: like we talked about campbellin Membo, it's just a matter 430 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 5: of what questions they want to deal with more. I 431 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 5: think Jalen Walkers could still be at play Down at 432 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 5: ten and at that point, you know, do you bring 433 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 5: Ted McMillan back in the conversation. 434 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: That's who I was going to bring up as the 435 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: last guy, right. I feel like it's the tackles that 436 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,160 Speaker 1: whoever in the tackle group falls. Whether it's probably more 437 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: likely Membo or Banks, but Campbell, Membo, Banks, I think 438 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: you have to put Jalen Walker in that conversation, especially 439 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: with all the buzz that has connected him to the Patriots. 440 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: Although I kind of feel like Jalen Walker's floor might 441 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: be Carolina at eight. There's a lot of very. 442 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 5: Much a panther, But as he pointed out to me, 443 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 5: like that could also be a spot for Ted or 444 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 5: Matthew Golden Town. 445 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and uh, and then I think Ted McMillan 446 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: is the other guy. Yeah. And I feel like as 447 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: we've come full circle here, Banks and mcmill and are 448 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: starting to some of the talk about them really falling 449 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: in this draft is starting to subside, and people are 450 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: putting them more in the categories that they were back 451 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: in January when this all began, which I think is 452 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: probably where the most accurate, Like they're probably in the 453 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen range of this class. And because one's 454 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: the number one wide receiver taking Travis Hunter out of 455 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: this right, and the other is a premium position player 456 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: at left tackle, you know you could talk yourself into 457 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: either one of those guys at the back end of 458 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: the top ten. 459 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 5: You just worry like if those if all three of 460 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 5: the tackles go, do you trade down again targeting Simmons 461 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 5: or Connolly. Now you forced into a trade up, and 462 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 5: you're in a bad situation where teams know how desperate 463 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 5: you are, because like you might, especially if all three 464 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 5: of those guys going top ten. Arianta Ersery's not making 465 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 5: it thirty eight, and if Josh Simmons makes it thirty eight, 466 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 5: it meets his knees made of paper mache. 467 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: At this point, you can't take them. Yeah, so you're 468 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: really playing. 469 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 5: With fire at that point. The ultimate big picture. I 470 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 5: can't hammer this enough. By I will give them the 471 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 5: flexibility that maybe Ursery falls to thirty eight, maybe or 472 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 5: falls today two when they trade up a little bit, right, 473 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 5: what time do they start on Friday night? 474 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 3: Seven o'clock? 475 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, if we don't know by eight thirty on Friday, 476 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 5: let's call it. If we don't know by eight thirty 477 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 5: on Friday, who the Patriots starting left tackle is, that 478 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 5: is a major, major, major problem. That is the one 479 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,120 Speaker 5: thing that cannot happen. Trade up, trade down. Whatever, you're 480 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 5: gonna take a tackle at four, you're gonna move up 481 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 5: and take one. However you're gonna do it when the 482 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 5: top forty picks wrap up. You're not getting a starting 483 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 5: tackle after that, You're not. 484 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's hold on on that because I did want 485 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: to bring that up because I that was some the 486 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: more other reporting that's also coming out. I want to 487 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: talk trades, really, you know, one more trade scenario and 488 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: then I want to talk about that and kind of 489 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: segue into that. So the other piece of information this 490 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: is from Adam Schefter, was a lifted list of teams 491 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: that would be willing to trade down from their current 492 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: pick in the first round. Now, there are a couple 493 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: of teams in the top ten that Eas said would 494 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: be willing to trade down, you know, Carolina, Jacksonville, teams 495 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: like that. But I'm ruling those teams out for what 496 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: I want to bring up here. The teams that want 497 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 1: to trade down that are a little bit further down 498 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: in the first round that I find interesting from a 499 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: Patriots perspective. Seattle at eighteen, it is probably a little high. 500 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay at nineteen and it's a little high. Pittsburgh 501 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: at twenty one. They're not trading down or taking a quarterback. 502 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: And Minnesota at twenty four that's the one. So if 503 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: you're looking to trade back into the first round from 504 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: thirty eight, and it kind of couples with your tackle 505 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,479 Speaker 1: yeh spiel just now, it does feel like Minnesota at 506 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: twenty four is the sweet spot they have? 507 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 3: Is it four or five picks. 508 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: I think it's five Minnesota. 509 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they have. 510 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: Five picks and they have a lot of older players. 511 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: They have a lot of players on expensive contracts and 512 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: have a good team. Quarterback isn't one and they're trying 513 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: to well but there they have a good team. 514 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 5: But like they need to strengen out their russ. They 515 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 5: have four picks. They have twenty four, ninety seven, one 516 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 5: thirty nine and one eighty seven. 517 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: That's it. Yeah, that's it. 518 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 3: So you're you might be able to get some value there. 519 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 5: Maybe you can get away like the trade I look 520 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 5: at you're going up to twenty four. Rewind to twenty twenty. 521 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 5: It was twenty three for seventy one and or twenty three, 522 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 5: sorry for thirty seven and seventy one. That was the 523 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 5: Kyle Duggart trade back for the Patriots, So that was 524 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 5: twenty three. Vikings have twenty four, thirty seven and seventy one. 525 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 5: You have thirty eight and sixty nine. Can you swing 526 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 5: that into thirty eight one oh six because the Vikings 527 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 5: are just so desperate to add draft picks. 528 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe, I don't know, maybe seventy seven. I don't 529 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna have to give up a top one. 530 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 3: You probably are. 531 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 5: Maybe maybe there's a way to do a pick swap 532 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 5: or something in there, but like, that's the sweet spot 533 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 5: to me, and I think you'll probably be able to get. 534 00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: A tackle at that point. 535 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 5: You might not get to choose, but you should be 536 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 5: able to get a tackle. That that's the sweet spot 537 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 5: to trade up. And then the other one for me 538 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 5: is if they're not feeling as aggressive, those teams late 539 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 5: in the first are always looking to trade back. So 540 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 5: this is like twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine to 541 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 5: thirty Ravens, Lions, Commanders Bills. Right, there's a trade a 542 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 5: couple of years ago between the Jaguars and the uh 543 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 5: Bucks that was twenty seven for thirty three, one oh 544 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 5: eight and one eighty. So it's a little different because 545 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 5: you have thirty eight not thirty three, but maybe one 546 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 5: eighty becomes like one forty four, and now you don't 547 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 5: have to give up any top one hundred picks to 548 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 5: move back into the first round. You can't do that 549 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 5: for twenty four. You're gonna have to do that for 550 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 5: a later pick, and hope one of those teams that 551 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 5: was in conference championship games will to move out the 552 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 5: highest you can maybe do that as the Rams of 553 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 5: twenty six. But if you want to tackle, the other 554 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 5: thing to consider, the Texans are probably a tackle team 555 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 5: of twenty five. They could be their an offensive line 556 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 5: team for sure. This could also be that thing where 557 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 5: if you took a ten and then you want to 558 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 5: grab a guard, the Texans are an offensive line team. 559 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 5: The Rams might be an offensive line team at twenty six, 560 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 5: and then you might get Obviously, the Chiefs of thirty 561 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 5: one are a tackle team, so there are some teams 562 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 5: in there you may need to jump if you want 563 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 5: to get a certain guy. 564 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: So I feel like this is this is coupled with 565 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the other reporting that kind of makes 566 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: this point even more important from a Patriots perspective, which 567 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 1: is the drop off that tackle. Yeah, and this is 568 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 1: something we've been talking about. It's reflected in all of 569 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: our you know, pre draft coverage of this of this 570 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: draft and of this class. There's really let's call it six, 571 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: but it's really five. 572 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 3: Is five in a pretty expensive lottery ticket? 573 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Josh Simmons, Yeah, right, So we're talking Campbell, 574 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: Membu Banks, Connerly, Ursery, Simmons, right in some sort of order, 575 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: put them in whatever order you want it in terms 576 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: of talent, but those six tackles are really the only 577 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: starting caliber left tackles in this draft. And if you 578 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: miss out on one of those six guys, you are 579 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: not getting a rookie starter. 580 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 5: You are getting somebody who at best is competing with Viderian. 581 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: Low and is in a developmental phase of his career. 582 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: You're getting a Anthony Belton, a Charles Grant. You are 583 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: trying to take Ozzie Trapilo and seeing if he can 584 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: play on the left. 585 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: Side like you were John Rivers, Jan Travis. 586 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 1: Right, you're talking about taking guys that are projects. For 587 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: the most part, Tapillo is better than a project. But 588 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 1: he's a right tackle. Right. 589 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 5: It's not just we will break it down. We'll talk 590 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 5: about day one starters and year one starters. Day one 591 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 5: guy comes in right away, starts year one is you know, 592 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 5: maybe he's not gonna start week one of his rookie year, 593 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 5: but you can start eventually. 594 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 595 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 5: I don't think there's any year one starters after ur Sery. 596 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 5: You're talking about guys that are long term, multi year projects. 597 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 1: So if the Patriots, if you're of the thought and 598 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: full disclosure, I think Will Campbell is the best player 599 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 1: on the board at four, and I think you should 600 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: just take Will Campbell. So I'm right there with Will Campbell. 601 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: But I hear it a lot. And if you're the 602 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: thought that he's not quote unquote the best player available, 603 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: and you're more or less reaching on a position of 604 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: need by taking Campbell. If you prefer you know, Genty, 605 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: I prefer Genty, but he's a running back, right, but 606 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: to him inside, you know Jalen Walker, Mason Graham, you know, 607 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: Tyler Warren, whoever, if you prefer somebody else at that spot. 608 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 1: The only way that you can realistically come out of 609 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: this and at least have our approval. I think I 610 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: don't have to talk for you or speak for you, 611 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 1: but based off what you've said to have our approval 612 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 1: of this draft is if you trade back into the 613 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: first round to get the tackle. You cannot come away 614 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: from this draft without an answer at left tackle. 615 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not gonna fault them if they get 616 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 5: the guy at thirty eight, but you have to get that. 617 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: Yes, if they come out. 618 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 3: Of this draft out a left tackle, it's bad draft, right, So. 619 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: They need somebody out of that group of six and 620 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: I we both kind of feel like it should be 621 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: the group of five without Simmons. 622 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 5: I like, And let me clear about this, I like Simmons. 623 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 5: I know I probably came off as somebody who didn't 624 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 5: like him as a player earlier, and I apologize for that. Yeah, 625 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 5: I like him as a player. And I know that 626 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 5: the reporting out there right now is like he's healing well. 627 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 5: It's always the next time you hear pre draft that 628 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 5: a players not doing well injury wise will be the 629 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 5: first time, right, But I I the Malcolm Mitchell komp 630 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 5: is there for a reason. Maybe I should use Malcolm 631 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 5: Mitchell instead of DOMINICQ Keasley. Yeah, because I think he's 632 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 5: a good player. But like if you get eight to 633 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 5: ten really good games out of him, but then he's 634 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 5: hurt and he just never really becomes a regular NFL player, 635 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 5: That's what I worry about, And that would be a 636 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 5: bad pick. That would be a worse pick than taking 637 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 5: a guy who moves inside of guard because at least 638 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 5: that guy's playing, which I don't think is gonna happen 639 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 5: with Campbell by the way, to be clear, but like 640 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 5: I yeah, you said it very well. You can't miss 641 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 5: and to people say, well, you know, Arianta Air series 642 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 5: projected at thirty eight. You don't need to worry about 643 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 5: it too much. And I don't think Connolly is going 644 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 5: to go in the first round. Go back to last year. 645 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 5: Here is a good tackle class with a ton of depth, 646 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 5: and we were sitting here saying, this is great. They 647 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 5: can get Drake May, they may even be able to 648 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 5: get a receiver, and still with their third pick, get 649 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 5: a starting tackle. 650 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: And what happened. 651 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 5: These guys all went around around plus earlier than we 652 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 5: thought they would. Because there's there are less than thirty 653 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 5: two human beings on the planet. They can play left 654 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 5: tackle at a starting caliber level in the NFL less 655 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 5: than thirty two human beings on the planet. If you 656 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 5: have a chance to get one consensus boards, be damned, 657 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 5: you're gonna take them if you need them. 658 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: So URSE three might be projected a forty eight. Right now. 659 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 5: If these guys start to go right, let's say you 660 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 5: trade back. Campbell goes I could even see him going 661 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 5: to the Jaguars, right, Campbell goes five, Member goes seven 662 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 5: to the Jets, Calvin Banks goes in the top twelve, right, 663 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,719 Speaker 5: or maybe fourteen. You have the Niners at eleven. They 664 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 5: need to tackle now they're flying. You think the chief 665 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 5: Connory goes to the Texans. You think the Chiefs are 666 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 5: gonna sit down thirty one and say, man with Patrick 667 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 5: Mahomes blind side's a mess. But Ariana, hey he's you know, 668 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 5: he's a projected second round pick. 669 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: We should probably take somebody else. No, they're gonna take Ursery. Yeah, 670 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna. 671 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 5: Take them because you're not getting a guy if not. 672 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 5: So this could actually be an interesting exercise. 673 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: We we you just saw this last year, like right, 674 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: the tackle run happened last year. You know, Tyler, can. 675 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 5: You pull up I just want to try something for 676 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 5: an experiment. Can you pull up like the list of 677 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 5: tackles that were taken last year? Yeah, we just need 678 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 5: or pull or pull up the mock draft database, pull 679 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 5: up last year's tackle list. I'll pull up the tackles 680 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 5: from last year. I just want to see something I've 681 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 5: been meaning to do. 682 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 6: This. 683 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: We'll do it live on the air. We're doing this 684 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: live on the Yeah, you see, you see what I'm 685 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: going for. We're getting the sausage made here. Yes, so 686 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: I can't type on this smaller keyboard though, So this 687 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: this could be a problem. 688 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 5: Okay, fine, I'll just do it all right. So Joel 689 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 5: last year was seven on the consensus board. 690 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: Let me do it on my phone. 691 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 5: On your phone, okay, Census, you have the consensus board 692 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 5: from last year. 693 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 3: I just just just and again. We're doing this live. 694 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 5: So maybe this won't work out for me, but I 695 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 5: think this is going to prove my point if I 696 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 5: remember correctly. So Joe All went fifth last year. Where 697 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 5: was he on the consensus board last year? 698 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: Seven? Seven? Okay, so he went high and expected JC 699 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: Latham he was twelve on the consensus board. He went seventh. 700 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 5: Ol Lufashanham eleventh and he went all right, that's a draw. 701 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 5: Fuanga thirteenth, he went fourteenth, Right there. Marius Mims twenty first, 702 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 5: went eighteenth. 703 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: Here we go. Jordan Morgan thirty fifth, went twenty fifth. 704 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Geyton twenty nine. 705 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 3: That's a draw. 706 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: Patrick Paul forty four, All right. 707 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 5: He went fifty five. He went a little lower, but 708 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 5: people were low on Patrick Paul, Blake Fisher seventy eight, 709 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 5: fifty nine. Roger Rosengarten sixty four, sixty two, okay, that's close. 710 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 5: Kingsley thirty seven. He later was ranked yeah, he went later. 711 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 5: Caiten Wallace, we know when he went sixty eight a 712 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 5: metagi I think was outside of the top one hundred. 713 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 3: He went seventy five. 714 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 5: Del Mar Glaze, if I remember correctly, was somewhere in 715 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 5: the one fifties. He went seventy seven. 716 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then uh, you know, depending on where he plays. 717 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: But Troy Fottenu from Washington when he was eighteen on 718 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: the consensus board, I mean some people see him as 719 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: a guard. 720 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 5: Oh he's probably not. I have the the just the 721 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 5: list of tackles up. He must be included. 722 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: But the point being, like the top tackles, it's the 723 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: day two stuff might be to get a little bit wonky, 724 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: but you know, really the guys that they were hoping 725 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: were We're going to fall to them, were you know 726 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: the guitans, you know, Jordan Morgan potentially like it was. 727 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: And there was that run. Yeah, and there was that run. 728 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: So I s isn't even shallower tackle. 729 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 5: Right, There's no reason to think that won't happen again. 730 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 5: If anything, I think the signs point to the run 731 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 5: being more aggressive. 732 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: I did. This is my biggest fear about this draft 733 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: because I hear people that say they should take the 734 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: best player available at four and then aggressive and try 735 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: to get back into the first round to get the tackle, 736 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: so that you address the needs in the right order, 737 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: right in where the value is on the board. And 738 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: I understand that that's a great in theory. It's great 739 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: when we're all on the PFF mock draft simulator and 740 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 1: forcing trades right like, it's a great concept, But actually 741 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 1: going out and executing the concept they found out last 742 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: year was a lot harder than you want it to be. 743 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: And I've said this multiple times, but there's varying reporting 744 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 1: on whether it was for a receiver or it was 745 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: for a tackle, But there is reporting from multiple outlets 746 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: at this point that they tried to make this trade 747 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,879 Speaker 1: last year. They tried to trade back into the first 748 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 1: round last year. I think it for a tackle and receiver. 749 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: They tried a few times, and they got rebuffed. They 750 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:49,479 Speaker 1: got turned down on the trade. So if you get 751 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: through this draft, and let's just say for argument's sake, 752 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: that they take Jalen Walker at four overall because they 753 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: feel like Jalen Walker is the best overall player on 754 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: their board over Will Campbell, and they get to the bottom 755 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: half of the first round, and they called Minnesota, and 756 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: Minnesota doesn't want their deal, and they call, you know, Buffalo, 757 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: who's not gonna trade with them when they wouldn't trade 758 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 1: with them last year. 759 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 5: But they roll out because the Bills made a very 760 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:15,280 Speaker 5: stupid trade with the Billings. 761 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: They made the stupid trade with the Chiefs because they trade. 762 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's a good point, yes, fair. 763 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: Kansas City says, well, why would we trade you the 764 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: tackle when we need the tackle. We're just gonna take 765 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: the tackle right again. They try to go all up 766 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: and down. Philadelphia says, nope, we we have a guy 767 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,439 Speaker 1: where Philadelphia, we know how to scout better than anybody else. 768 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: We have a guy we love here. We're taking him right. 769 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 1: You go all through all this whole scenario, and then 770 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you are left again in a 771 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: position where you don't have a tackle to take at 772 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: your thirty eighth overall pick, and then you're in the 773 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 1: third round again looking around. 774 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 5: For tackles, and Drake May is getting clocked from the 775 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,919 Speaker 5: blind side time and time again for another five months. 776 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, So that that's all the arguments. 777 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,439 Speaker 5: Can I just can I just say that, like, because 778 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 5: I think this has gotten lost as we've gotten into 779 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 5: the weeds. 780 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is all. It all goes back to Drake May. 781 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 5: For the people that think we just like love Will Campbell, 782 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,359 Speaker 5: we think he's his generational prospect, that's not necessarily the case. 783 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 5: It's about how do you invest in your best asset? 784 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 5: How do you as the Patriots? And that's what makes 785 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 5: him or whoever the top tackle. 786 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: On your board is. 787 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 5: Honestly, if you want to tell me it's armand Membu, 788 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 5: this take still applies to you. Just replace Campbell with Membo. 789 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 5: If you think it's Banks, you can do the same thing. 790 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 5: Hell if you think it's Josh Simmons. Again, I'm worried 791 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 5: about the injury, but fine, I'll have the conversation. It's 792 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 5: all about how do you invest in your best asset. 793 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 5: Some people might tell you that doing that is wide receiver, 794 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 5: but one the wide receivers at the top this draft 795 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 5: or worse than the tackles. And it's that you know 796 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 5: the meme that you love that you definitely originally created 797 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 5: and didn't steal from somebody, the. 798 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: Old Joe Burrow Chase. I created this version myself, but 799 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: it was I will admit that it was stolen from 800 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,280 Speaker 1: the Jamar Chase Penny Sewell discourse. But the tech McMillan, 801 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: Will Campbell meme yeah is copywritten to me. There you go. 802 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 5: So but the point being like, that's what this all 803 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 5: comes back and I feel like. 804 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 3: We've lost sight of that. Yeah, but that's what this 805 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 3: all comes back to. 806 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 5: How do you what makes him the best pick is 807 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 5: it's what's best for Drake May. And what's best for 808 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 5: Drake May is what's best for the football team. If 809 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 5: there was like an apex receiver in this draft, right, 810 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 5: if Luther Burden had. 811 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 3: The jump that we thought he was gonna have from twenty. 812 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 5: Twenty three to Marvin Harrison Junior was in this right, 813 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 5: we might be having a different conversation even though tackle 814 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 5: is a more valuable position, if that guy was like 815 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 5: that much better. Right, But the way this board looks, 816 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 5: getting a left tackle is the best possible thing you 817 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 5: can do for Drake May at this point. That is 818 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 5: how you invest in your best asset, and that that's 819 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 5: ultimately what this all comes back to. I'm just not 820 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 5: taking a pick that helps Drake May the most. 821 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: I think it's extremely risky and right, it's a big 822 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: chance to say we're just gonna trade. 823 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 5: Back exactly, so that that's the point, like you miss 824 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 5: on tackle, not only did you not help Drake May 825 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 5: as much as you can, and you might not help him. 826 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 1: At all in a way where you really need to 827 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: help him out. So last bit of news here, and 828 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: then I want to do our top ten box and 829 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: then we're going to open the show up to the 830 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: calls in the emails. I promise there's a lot of 831 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: reporting now from multiple sources. Adams are not my sources, 832 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: like multiple reports. Adam Schefter had it, Breer had it, 833 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 1: I think Jordan Schultz had it that Kaishan Boody could 834 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: be available via trade. Now, there's a couple of different 835 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: I guess avenues to look at this. The one that 836 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: I keep coming back to is that if they're going 837 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,280 Speaker 1: to trade one of these younger receivers that they currently 838 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 1: have on the roster, and let's assume they don't want 839 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: to trade Pop Douglas because he's probably the best of 840 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,800 Speaker 1: the group and they don't want to trade him. Between Booty, 841 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: Polk and Baker, there's no doubt that Booty has the 842 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: most value in a trade right. He has proven NFL 843 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 1: production last year almost six hundred receiving yards. He has 844 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 1: actual NFL resume as of last year. You're not getting 845 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 1: anything for Polkan Baker at this point. They they you're 846 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: those are players that you're gonna get a conditional seventh 847 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 1: round pick because you were gonna cut him anyways like that. 848 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: That that's the type of thing going at There might 849 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: be a little bit of you know, is Kaishan Boody 850 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: of Rabel program guy. You know, I think that that's 851 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 1: potentially an issue here as well. But when you look 852 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: at it to me, and we've talked a little bit 853 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: about this in the past in terms of the sacrificial 854 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: X receiver in Josh McDaniel's offense, basically just the guy 855 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: that's clearing out coverage on the outside. He's gonna run 856 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: a bunch of nine routes. He's gonna try to get 857 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: behind the defense. If he does, every once in a 858 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: while he might get targeted. But just like Kaysehan Boody 859 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: last year, you're not talking about a high volume of targets. 860 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: You're you're really running the offense through the z, the slot, 861 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: the tight ends, the running backs like that. That's where 862 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: the offense is going to live in the middle of 863 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 1: the field, and that's exactly I think what Josh mcdaniels's 864 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: offense has been notoriously, I do think that it's a 865 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: good fit with Drake may and the way he can 866 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 1: throw the ball through the middle of the field with 867 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: zip and with accuracy and anticipation. So you look at 868 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: the way they want to build the offense. To me, 869 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 1: Kai Shan Body is a perfectly fine sacrificial X receiver. 870 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: Like if he's the guy that's just gonna run nine 871 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: routes and he's every once in a while he's gonna 872 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: sneak behind Derek Stingley for a forty five yard touchdown 873 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 1: at the end of the half, Like, that's what that 874 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: role is for. That role is not for putting a 875 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,360 Speaker 1: star receiver in that role that is going to emerge 876 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: into a high volume player. It could be you could pivot, 877 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 1: but if they want to build the offense the way 878 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,319 Speaker 1: that they have in the past, that is the role. 879 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: So I am a little bit surprised that they don't 880 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 1: see a fit in that particular role for Kaishan Boody. 881 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: And I would just say, if you're gonna trade Kishan 882 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: Boody and then you're just gonna use a not you know, 883 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: a top fifty pick, let's call it a top seventy 884 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: five pick on an ex receiver. The most likely scenario 885 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: is that you're just going to replace Kaishan Boody with 886 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: a draft pick. Like, maybe you go in it into 887 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: it and you think that there's a little bit more 888 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 1: ceiling to the player that you're going to draft in 889 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: that role at seventy seven or one oh six or 890 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: whatever the case. Horton, Right, you know, maybe you feel 891 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: like there's a little bit more ceiling, or maybe you 892 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: feel like the guy is a better guy. Right, He's 893 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: just a better football character, dude. But in general, like 894 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: I feel like you're just throwing another dart at it 895 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: being Kaishan Boudi or Jayvon Baker emerging or whatever. I 896 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,280 Speaker 1: would at that point just hold on to Kishan Booty 897 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,319 Speaker 1: into camp and see what he looks like in his 898 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 1: third training camp now with the Patriots. So I'm a 899 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 1: little bit surprised that they are so ready potentially to 900 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: move on from Kishan Boody. But I do understand that 901 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: he probably presents the most trade value out of anybody 902 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: in that group. So maybe that's all it is. Maybe 903 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,240 Speaker 1: it's just simply we can't get anything for these other guys, 904 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,320 Speaker 1: but we might actually be able to get a return 905 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 1: for Keisha on Boody. 906 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 7: Yeah. 907 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 5: I mean I think they trade anybody if they you know, 908 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 5: if they got the right offer, I wouldn't. 909 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: I don't think that move's coming. 910 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 5: Like before the draft though, that's I bring him in 911 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 5: a camp, bring everybody in a camp and see what's 912 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 5: going on. You still have that extra roster spot of 913 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 5: Stefan Diggs opens on pup so look, could I. 914 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 3: See him getting traded. 915 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd like them to at least bring him in 916 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 5: a camp, especially if they get a guy like one 917 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 5: oh four. Right, Yeah, that's an open competition between that 918 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 5: guy and Booty. To me, that guy's not a lock 919 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 5: for anything, so I understand seeing what he's worth. 920 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 3: I don't think he's a guy. 921 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:34,399 Speaker 1: Like you have to keep. 922 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 5: He's not untouchable. No, but I don't think they need 923 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 5: to be in a rush to trade him either. 924 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just a nice role for him. And I 925 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 1: look at this group of X receivers in the draft, 926 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: I don't I'm not crazy about any of them, Like 927 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't love I tried all offseason, all draft season 928 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: to find an X to fall in love with, to 929 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: be like, this guy is gonna be my guy in 930 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,799 Speaker 1: the prototype that they need, you know, somebody with some 931 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: size and some speed on the outside. I think Trey 932 00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: Harris probably came the closest to being that guy, but 933 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't quite have the top end speed that I 934 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: would really like. But I could see him being this 935 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 1: type of player and being successful there. Jayden Higgins, I 936 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: just don't think he plays to the athleticism that he 937 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 1: tested at at the Combine. I don't think he plays 938 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: to a sub four five forty type of guy. I 939 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: think he's more of a mid four to fives guy 940 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: on tape. I don't think he really runs by people 941 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: very much on the outside. That doesn't mean he's going 942 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: to be a bad player. I just don't love him. 943 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,560 Speaker 1: I don't love him, especially at thirty eight, so I 944 00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: had a tough time with that. I've kind of come 945 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: around to cash on Booty competing for that X receiver 946 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 1: spot under the assumption that it's going to be a 947 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,280 Speaker 1: low volume role, like under the assumption that they're really 948 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: not going to feature that spot in the Josh McDaniels offense. 949 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: All Right, so that's where the news stands right now. 950 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: A lot of trade rumors, rumblings things like that about 951 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: draft picks moving, a lot of ash and gent rumblings, 952 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: and that booty trade also coming up in multiple spots. 953 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 1: Let's do our top ten mocked and now we can 954 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: go pretty quickly through some of these because they're kind 955 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 1: of mine at least at the top, are pretty chalk. 956 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I feel would I 957 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,000 Speaker 1: do the one I publish or should I just like 958 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 1: do this live on the air. Whatever you want to do, 959 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: it's your mocker. I don't do the updates we've gotten since. Okay, 960 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna start. Yeah, I'm gonna go cam 961 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,479 Speaker 1: Ward at one, yep, Travis Hunter at two, Abdul Carter 962 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: at three. 963 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 3: I am going to agree with you. 964 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't see that changing. I think that that's 965 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 1: been locked in. I think we're gonna find out, like 966 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 1: we always do, after the draft, that dad has been 967 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: locked in for like six months. 968 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 3: Can I give you a tape? Can I give you 969 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:37,879 Speaker 3: a take? 970 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 1: Yeah? 971 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 5: So both those teams obviously will need quarterbacks now, right, 972 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 5: the Browns and the Giants. I think we're both candidates 973 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 5: to trade up. The Browns are the more interesting one 974 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 5: to me because there's two scenarios that are fascinating. 975 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: One they trade up. I think Jalen Milroe has a 976 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: good shot to be a first round pick. Yep. 977 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 5: And Tommy Reeves, who's the ocat in Cleveland, was the 978 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 5: oc at Alabama twenty twenty three when Miller had a 979 00:44:59,000 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 5: breakout year. 980 00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:00,439 Speaker 1: I could seem like him. 981 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 3: That's one scenario. You want something that's so Browns it hurts. 982 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 5: So gm Andrew Berry had set after the Colorado Pro 983 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 5: Day watching Travis Hunter Shudur Sanders, man, I wish I 984 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 5: could have them both to the Browns jump the Steelers 985 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 5: at twenty one, take care, take Hunter two drump jump 986 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 5: the Steelers at twenty one. 987 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,959 Speaker 1: And take Shudur Sanders at like eighteen or nineth The Browns. Yeah, 988 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 1: the Browns. That makes the most sense for them. That 989 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: would be now. 990 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 5: So brown And this is not me saying it would work, 991 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 5: but it would be so brown. 992 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 1: That that I feel like And it kind of goes 993 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,240 Speaker 1: back to what we were talking about with the Patriots 994 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,240 Speaker 1: potentially targeting a different player than coming up for the tackle. 995 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 1: In this from the second round, it's it's trying to 996 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 1: have your cake and eat it too, it really is. 997 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: It's like, Okay, well, we know Travis Hunter is a 998 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 1: much better player, you know, grades out as a much 999 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 1: better player than Shador Sanders, but we're desperate for the quarterback. 1000 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,760 Speaker 1: So what we're gonna do is we're gonna take Travis 1001 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: Hunter at two, then we're gonna trade out to twenty, 1002 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: and we're gonna draft sha Door Sanders, and then we're 1003 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna come out of this draft with Travis Hunter and 1004 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 1: Shador Sanders. On the surface, that sounds like an awesome plan. 1005 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 1: Like everybody in Cleveland would sign up for that plan 1006 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: right now. If I told you with one hundred percent 1007 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 1: guarantee that they were gonna be able to pull that off, 1008 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 1: I would just have a ton of reservations, more even 1009 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 1: more so than I do with the Patriots as a 1010 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 1: Browns fan that's been scarred for years and years of 1011 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 1: them screwing up drafts. But they would actually be able 1012 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:27,720 Speaker 1: to pull something like that, doing. 1013 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 5: Something gimmicky like that. Doesn't that feel like and I think, 1014 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 5: better quarterback? But doesn't that feel like Man's ellish? 1015 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,360 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean it feels it feels like but it 1016 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: also feels so Cleveland. Brown's like Butcher and not be 1017 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 1: able to do it and not be able to pull 1018 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: it off. 1019 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:40,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. 1020 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,759 Speaker 5: So well, if if the league is as low on 1021 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 5: Shoudar as some reports suggest, some of it is bad, 1022 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 5: then and then the Browns are just trying to fly 1023 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 5: up for him, that would be pretty Browns too. 1024 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 1: If Shador slides, and I don't want to spend too 1025 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 1: much time on Shador, but if Shador slides, let's say 1026 00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 1: he slides out of the first round. Yeah. The number 1027 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 1: one reason I feel like that Shador will slide out 1028 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 1: of the first round is because of how he handled 1029 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 1: the process, not because of the film. I think he's 1030 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,840 Speaker 1: a late first round quarterback on film, but he treated 1031 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,120 Speaker 1: himself like he was a top five pick. He didn't 1032 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: throw at the combine. He had a showcase pro day 1033 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 1: where he threw just like Jay you know, Jenden Daniels, 1034 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 1: Drake Man, Caleb Williams did last year. He didn't work out, 1035 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 1: didn't test, he didn't interview particularly well. If you read 1036 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,879 Speaker 1: around about some of the reports about his interviews, and 1037 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of a sense of entitlement, and you know, 1038 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,799 Speaker 1: just a little bit more entitlement is the best way 1039 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 1: to put it. He treated himself like he was Caleb 1040 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: Williams and was going to be the number one overall pick. 1041 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: If he had went into the process with some you know, 1042 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,800 Speaker 1: self awareness of what he really was worth in the draft, 1043 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: then I think he would have been a much higher 1044 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 1: draft pick. But he just hasn't handled the process great. 1045 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 1: From what everybody is saying, you know, we'll see. Maybe 1046 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 1: that is the Pittsburgh Steelers trying to put out, you know, 1047 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 1: all this information as smoke screen to get him to 1048 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: fall down the boord to them at twenty one. So 1049 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: Cam wored Travis Hunter, Abdul Carter. Number four overall, the 1050 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 1: New England Patriots I have selecting Will Campbell. I think 1051 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 1: that's just yeah, it's Will Campbell versus the field at 1052 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,839 Speaker 1: this point. Number five the Jacksonville Jaguars. This is where 1053 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 1: it gets really interesting with the Jaguars. Ideally, and I 1054 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 1: went back and forth with this, I believe ideally the 1055 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: Jaguars would trade out of this pick, yep, just like 1056 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots would probably ideality at four, I think they 1057 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 1: would try to trade out. Maybe it's with the Chicago Bears. 1058 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,240 Speaker 1: Maybe those two swap because I think they want different 1059 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: players and they want them to go in the right 1060 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: range of the draft. Right, So the Jacksonville Jaguars, in 1061 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 1: my mind want Ted McMillan. They're a tech McMillan team. 1062 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 1: They want Tech McMillan. I think from two angles. One 1063 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,879 Speaker 1: you pair him with Brian Thomas Junior. That's a great 1064 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: one too, tandem for Liam Cohne to work with. The 1065 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:56,320 Speaker 1: reporting out of Jacksonville is that they want they're targeting 1066 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 1: touchdowns in this draft, right, They're talking offensive skill play 1067 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 1: is big. They have the nerd. I don't think the 1068 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 1: NERD's taking a running back. I'm just gonna stick to that. 1069 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to stick to that premise. I don't think 1070 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,840 Speaker 1: he's taking a running back. So if you add that 1071 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 1: all up, Teed McMillan he could profile for Gladstone very 1072 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 1: similarly to Puka Nikua right where he's not a forty 1073 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: time tester, but he's fast in game. He's fast with 1074 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 1: the ball in his hands. He's got great body control, 1075 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: he's got great ball skills, Like there's a lot of 1076 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:30,320 Speaker 1: Pukah to his game. Yeah, So Jacksonville had five overall 1077 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 1: unable to make a trade down. Here, I have them 1078 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: taking Teed McMillan. 1079 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 5: So I'll get a little creative here. I have them 1080 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,640 Speaker 5: trading back as well, all of them trading back. I 1081 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,279 Speaker 5: think that they put, you know, on the chart, on 1082 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 5: the trade chart, the math tells the nerd to make 1083 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 5: the trade. The Bears move up and get ash and Genty. 1084 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: It's fair. I had that. I went back and forth 1085 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,320 Speaker 1: with that. I think that's the most the sense you 1086 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 1: know that this trade is coming. I feel like it 1087 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: is out there that there's this big trade coming that 1088 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 1: a lot of people have been teasing. And it sounds 1089 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 1: a lot like that. It could be the two of 1090 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 1: them swapping there. So right now we have cam Ward, Travis, Hunter, Abdua, 1091 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 1: Carter Will Campbell as the top four. I have Tech 1092 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: McMillan five to the Jaguars. You have Ashon denty five 1093 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:17,840 Speaker 1: to the Bears in a trade down with Jacksonville or 1094 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:21,800 Speaker 1: trade up with Jacksonville. Six. Overall, this one's a wildcard 1095 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 1: to me a little bit too, especially if Genty goes 1096 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 1: at five. I think it's between armand Membu and Mason Graham. 1097 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,280 Speaker 1: I think both those guys have been linked to Vegas enough. 1098 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 1: I went with armand Membu here. I just feel like 1099 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,800 Speaker 1: they are going to want to build in the trenches. 1100 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:42,320 Speaker 1: You get Colton Miller. I think they'll satisfy Colton Miller. 1101 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 1: They'll figure it out with him. Armond Membu's your right tackle, 1102 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,800 Speaker 1: Colton Miller's your left tackle. Get back to Pete Carroll, 1103 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 1: ground and pound offense with a good offensive line. Armond 1104 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: Membu six overall to the Raiders can have some fun 1105 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 1: with this one. Now. 1106 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:57,759 Speaker 5: I don't necessarily think this is what's gonna happen. I'm 1107 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 5: just throw a snary out for you. Tom Brady's in charge. 1108 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 5: He saw for years and years and years what not 1109 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 5: investing in the wide receiver position does to a quarterback. Yep, right, 1110 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 5: Pete Carroll's in charge. He wants to throw the ball 1111 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 5: around the yard. And Gino Smith, who's got a good 1112 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 5: deep ball. I'm not talking about Tet McMillan. 1113 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 1: Evan, Matthew Golden. 1114 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, so he stole my thunder. 1115 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 1: Is that what you're talking about? Yeah? 1116 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 5: Sixteen years ago, Michael Crabtree was the consensus top receiver 1117 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 5: in the draft. Everybody thought he was going high, he 1118 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 5: was gonna be a top five pick. He was far 1119 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 5: and away the number one player on the board at 1120 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,120 Speaker 5: that position. The Raiders were the first team to take 1121 00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,359 Speaker 5: a wide receiver. Did they take Michael Crabtree. No, they 1122 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:47,240 Speaker 5: took who Evan Darius Hayward Bay because he was faster 1123 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 5: from the grave. From the grave. Now, look, I don't 1124 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 5: think Teed McMillan is Michael Crabtree, but it's Crabtree and 1125 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:58,439 Speaker 5: every that was a shocking pick at the time. It's 1126 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 5: Crabtree Hayward Bay two two point zero. The Raiders make 1127 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 5: Matthew Golden wide receiver one at pick six. 1128 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: Okay, so because he is fast, so I get Matthew. 1129 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:11,720 Speaker 1: I have Matthew Golden take here in a second. Okay, 1130 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 1: But so we're Ward Hunter, Carter Campbell, Genty Golden for you. 1131 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm McMillan, Membo Becle. I'm shounding fun with this. I 1132 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,280 Speaker 1: know this is but I'm serious. 1133 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 3: Mine serious because I haven't published why I published three. 1134 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 1: So you can check those out. Number seven to the 1135 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 1: New York Jets. So you're the New York Jets, and 1136 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 1: I love this for the Jets as a Patriots guy. 1137 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: You're the New York Jets. The two top tackles are 1138 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,239 Speaker 1: gone you're you're perfectly fit. Right tackle is gone right 1139 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 1: because he just got taken by the Las Vegas Raiders 1140 00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 1: at six. Overall with Membo, there's also a lot of 1141 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,680 Speaker 1: scuttle boat with the Jets and Tyler Warren. And the 1142 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 1: Jets have Garrett Wilson, they have Breise Hall, but they 1143 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 1: don't really have a second fiddle to Garrett Wilson in 1144 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,440 Speaker 1: the passing game. Tyler Warren makes sense. It helps both 1145 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 1: of their other offensive assets. He's a great blocker and 1146 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 1: he's a great pass catcher. He's a clean prospect for 1147 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:06,799 Speaker 1: a newer regime to take. Aaron Glenn's like one of 1148 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: those coaches that you know, he's kind of like Dan Campbell. 1149 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 1: He wants to be tough and physical and you know, 1150 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:15,320 Speaker 1: build a bully of a football team. They can't get Membo. 1151 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: I have the Jets taking Tyler Warren at seven. 1152 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I still have Membo on the board. He's 1153 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,440 Speaker 5: the obvious pick, he's the clear pick. 1154 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 1: It's the Jets. 1155 00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:26,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're not going to do that. 1156 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 5: So I'm kind of attempted to go Mason Grahame here. 1157 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 5: The Jets don't need him at all. But Aaron Glenn's 1158 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 5: gonna want a defensive player. He's the best defensive player 1159 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,879 Speaker 5: on the board. But I'll have them going Tyler Warren 1160 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:36,120 Speaker 5: as well. 1161 00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tyler Warren makes a lot of sense for them, 1162 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: which I if you're a Patriots fan, I think that 1163 00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 1: you're fine with them getting Tyler Warren number eight as 1164 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. This to me, I think is one 1165 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 1: of the bigger surprise picks I have in my top ten. 1166 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,800 Speaker 1: When I look at the Carolina Panthers and I texted 1167 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:58,759 Speaker 1: you the screenshot of their wide receiver depth chart right now, 1168 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 1: it's not good that the worst wide receiver room in 1169 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 1: the NFL. Now that the Patriots have added Stefon Diggs, 1170 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: I can safely say that is the worst wide receiver 1171 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:12,319 Speaker 1: room in the NFL. It's Xavier Lagett, a thirty something 1172 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 1: year old Adam Feelin is in there right like. It 1173 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:22,080 Speaker 1: is not good. And beyond that, I just can't see 1174 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: Carolina going into next season with that being their wide 1175 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 1: receiver depth chart. It's just not good enough on any level. 1176 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:34,600 Speaker 1: So with the eighth overall picked, the Carolina, Carolina Panthers 1177 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,319 Speaker 1: select Matthew Golden from Texas, I just think that it 1178 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:40,720 Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense for them to add another 1179 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:45,280 Speaker 1: offensive playmaker. They need to add receivers. Tech McMillan's already 1180 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 1: off the board in my mock, so they can't take 1181 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: Tech McMillan. When a guy runs the sub four three forty, 1182 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: even if he doesn't play to the sub four three 1183 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 1: forty on tape, teams just fall over themselves for those 1184 00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:58,840 Speaker 1: types of players. There's a lot of smoke here for 1185 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: Jalen Walker being a Carolina Panther. Maybe that's the other 1186 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 1: pick here, but I'm going Matthew Golden because I look 1187 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,759 Speaker 1: at that Carolina offense and I say, this is not good. 1188 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,000 Speaker 1: This is not NFL caliber, Like you have to add 1189 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 1: something to this group. 1190 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:13,759 Speaker 5: I'll go Teed McMillan say everything you just said, them 1191 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:14,360 Speaker 5: needing a receiver. 1192 00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,759 Speaker 1: But I SI love McMillan on the board. Yep, all right. 1193 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 1: Number nine the New Orleans Saints. This one was a 1194 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: little bit tricky to me as well, because I so 1195 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,759 Speaker 1: see Mikel Williams as a New Orleans Saint fitt. They 1196 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: love their ed rushers in New Orleans. They especially love 1197 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 1: their toolsy ed rushers in New Orleans. They've made some 1198 00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: mistakes in the draft, in New Orleans targeting edge rushers, 1199 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: so it could be mikel Williams. But I'm going to 1200 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: take the other Georgia edge rusher, Jalen Walker in this spot. 1201 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 1: He's still on my board right now to New Orleans. 1202 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 1: So the Saints ad Jalen Walker. I think they would 1203 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 1: be a Tyler Warren team if Tyler Warren fell to 1204 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,400 Speaker 1: them at nine, but he got scooped up by the 1205 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,279 Speaker 1: Jets at seven. Did you know the Saints starting tight 1206 00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: end right now is Foster Moreau. He is there starting 1207 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 1: tight end. There's teams with the worst tight end rooms, honestly, 1208 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:06,240 Speaker 1: so they were They are definitely a Tyler Warren team. 1209 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if they'll take the risk on Colston 1210 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,319 Speaker 1: Lovelin on the injury risk. So I'm gonna go Jayalen 1211 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:12,800 Speaker 1: Walker here at nine to the Saints. 1212 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 5: I'm gonna have them trading down again. This is two 1213 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 5: trades in the top ten, which might be unlikely. But 1214 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 5: I think that the Miami Dolphins look even Mike McDaniel 1215 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 5: should be able to see how bad that line is. 1216 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:25,760 Speaker 5: You have a quarterback that has a history of injuries, 1217 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 5: you have to be able to address it. I have 1218 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,239 Speaker 5: armand Membu falling here. Even if he doesn't. Maybe it's 1219 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 5: a trade up for Calvin Banks for Josh Simmons. They 1220 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,319 Speaker 5: need offensive line help. Armond Membu to the Dolphins at nine. 1221 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 5: With the Saints moving back and the Saints by a 1222 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 5: bunch of needs, they're just perpetually in cap hell at 1223 00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 5: this point, they still are. 1224 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: They could use more picks thanks to the makes a 1225 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 1: lot of sense. Yeah, so they get him at thirteen here, 1226 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,919 Speaker 1: So who you actually taking a night Membu to the Dolphins? Membu? 1227 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 1: Do the Dolphins that time? Okay? Last pick number ten 1228 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,920 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. See where this is going the Bears. 1229 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,080 Speaker 1: Everyone is telling you that the Bears are ashon gent 1230 00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:03,320 Speaker 1: crazy right now in this mock, I had Ashton Genty 1231 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,720 Speaker 1: falling to them right in their laps for Ben Johnson. 1232 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:07,600 Speaker 1: Don't even need to trade up for him. So the 1233 00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: Bears taking at ten ash and Genty they get their 1234 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 1: guy without a trade up, which probably isn't gonna happen. 1235 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: They're probably gonna end up swapping with Jacksonville and taking 1236 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 1: him at five, and Jacksonville will get their guy Ted 1237 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 1: McMillan at ten. But I think those are two teams 1238 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 1: are taking McMillan and Genty in some order like however, 1239 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: they figure it out. They figure it out. But I 1240 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,120 Speaker 1: just had them. Everybody's sticking in picking here Ashton Genty 1241 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 1: at ten, So cam Ward to the Titans, Travis Hunter 1242 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 1: to the Browns, Abdul Carter to the Giants, Will Campbell 1243 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 1: to the Pats, Teed McMillan to the Jaguars, Membu to 1244 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,360 Speaker 1: the Raiders, Warren to the Jets, Matthew Golden is surprise 1245 00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,600 Speaker 1: top ten pick to the Carolina Panthers, Jalen Walker to 1246 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:49,200 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints, and Ashton Genty to the Chicago Bears. 1247 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,800 Speaker 1: That's the official. There you go. Evan is our top ten. 1248 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 3: I guess I got a wrap mine up. 1249 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 5: I'll take Mason Graham to the Jacks because it'll bug 1250 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 5: you that the NERD's taking a defensive tackle. 1251 00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 1: So the only player in the top ten that I 1252 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 1: felt wrong about keeping out was Mason. I've seen him 1253 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 1: out of some people's top tens. This isn't completely out 1254 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: of left field. He is another one of those guys 1255 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 1: that has been hiding in the pre draft process. Did 1256 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: no testing, nothing at his pro day, nothing at the combine, 1257 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,920 Speaker 1: he's a great football player. He wins with technique, he 1258 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:20,960 Speaker 1: wins with leverage, he wins with hustle, he wins with 1259 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: effort and finish all those types of things. But he's 1260 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: not an athlete. And he's clearly not an athlete because 1261 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 1: he refuses to work out, so he's hiding the fact 1262 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:31,480 Speaker 1: that he's not an athlete. For the most part, I 1263 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,680 Speaker 1: think if you're picking in the top ten, you want 1264 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 1: to be picking athletic specimens in the top ten. You 1265 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: don't want to be picking guys that are are Oh well, 1266 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: this guy's savvy and he's sound, and he's smart, and 1267 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: he's you know, hustles and all that like that's usually 1268 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 1: not top ten worthy. So I see Mason Graham being 1269 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: the odd man out falling out of the top ten. Yeah, 1270 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: all right, So there you go. That's the official mock draft, 1271 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: my one and only top ten mock draft. I think 1272 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 1: it's going to be right, probably not, probably gonna be 1273 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 1: very wrong. We'll see. But let's get into your part 1274 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: of the show. Now. We're gonna get into the phones 1275 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: and we're gonna get into the emails.

First thing I wanted to see yesterday, 1295 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 8: I'm to you, is I wanted to get your guys 1296 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 8: feeling on draft fatigue. I know that's kind of a 1297 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 8: big buzzword or buzz buzz word's going on right now, 1298 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 8: and I think a lot of us in this area 1299 01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 8: have it. And the reason why we have it is 1300 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 8: because the last two seasons twenty three and twenty four. 1301 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 8: I don't know about you, I don't know about any 1302 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 8: of the other fans, but I started looking at the 1303 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 8: top prospects coming out in November because that's how crappy 1304 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 8: this team has been. So we're not you know, we're 1305 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 8: not looking from January the end of January and to April. 1306 01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 8: I'm looking from the middle of November into Abril. So 1307 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 8: I've got a good idea on who's out there, what 1308 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:36,959 Speaker 8: they're good at, what they're not good at. I don't 1309 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 8: break down the film like you, Evan. I'm not as 1310 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 8: even though I'm older than you guys, more experienced, I'm 1311 01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 8: not as smart as you guys, because you know that's 1312 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 8: your full time job. So I wanted to get your 1313 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 8: thoughts on that. My second thing I wanted to talk 1314 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:52,720 Speaker 8: about is you guys were bringing it up twenty four 1315 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 8: that's going to be a hotspot to trade up. Now, 1316 01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 8: what if four tackles are off the board in the 1317 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:01,680 Speaker 8: top fifteen, right, and then what teams like Kansas City 1318 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,640 Speaker 8: and Houston jump Minnesota and then you know all these 1319 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 8: people that are clamoring to take somebody else beside the 1320 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 8: left tackle at the number four spot. You're done, You're cooked. 1321 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 8: You're not getting a left tackle this year. No, but 1322 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 8: that's a variable I've not heard anybody bring up yet. 1323 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 8: And the last thing I want to end it with, Alex. 1324 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 8: I know this is probably gonna be kind of boring 1325 01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 8: for you because I saw on TV last night you 1326 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 8: did the you did a bunch of mock drafts. But 1327 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:31,720 Speaker 8: this was my predictive list. First pick Campbell, Second pick 1328 01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 8: Jalen Noel. One thing that doesn't get talked about with 1329 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 8: Noel is he was a team captain, so he's a 1330 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 8: high character guy. Number three Jack Sawyer, And this is 1331 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 8: sticking and picking. I think Sawyer is going to fall. 1332 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 8: Jack Sawyer number three. I think they're going to get 1333 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:47,800 Speaker 8: a tight end. I think the best one in round 1334 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:49,440 Speaker 8: three that's going to be available to them is going 1335 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 8: to be Terrence Ferguson. Fifth pick, Jacob Parrish. Fifth pick 1336 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 8: for Shard Smith got asked, m you and I rounded 1337 01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:59,760 Speaker 8: out with Drew Kendall, Cayleb Rodgers, who's a versatile he 1338 01:01:59,800 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 8: could inside and he can play tackle. Highly penalized guy, 1339 01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:06,680 Speaker 8: but I mean he's he wouldn't be a bad guy 1340 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 8: to be sort of that firstatle lignement that you could 1341 01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:11,959 Speaker 8: mix and match at any position. If somebody goes down 1342 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:15,720 Speaker 8: and Ryan Fitzgerald the round it off, that's all I got. 1343 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,560 Speaker 8: Let's go, baby, let's go. 1344 01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: Thanks for the call, Patty Good mock, good mock. I 1345 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 1: will say Drew Kendall, I think is gonna go a 1346 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 1: lot higher than people think. I Drew Kendall's like like 1347 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 1: a fourth or fifth round pick. But I like the mock. 1348 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,240 Speaker 1: I like all the players that he picked there. I 1349 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 1: think they're guys that we've discussed and we've talked about 1350 01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 1: a lot. I do I find the the Jalen Knowle 1351 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 1: thing interesting. It's on the one hand that they could 1352 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 1: look at it and we could look at it as 1353 01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: kind of like a redo on Lad McConkie, right, Like 1354 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 1: it's kind of a similar type of player, and you 1355 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 1: might feel like, all right, well, they have kind of 1356 01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: enough of that kind of player, they have enough slots, 1357 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 1: they have enough inside guys. But he's probably the best 1358 01:02:58,640 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 1: receiver that you could take there. 1359 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:02,640 Speaker 5: I also don't think they like people who have said 1360 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:04,960 Speaker 5: the slot position is filled, I disagree with that. I 1361 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 5: think they have options, but we've talked about this. Pop 1362 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 5: Douglas I think absolutely has a role here. Yeah, he's 1363 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,439 Speaker 5: a good player, He's not that one hundred and twenty 1364 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 5: target year guy. He's more Danny A. Mondola than Julian Edelman. 1365 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,200 Speaker 5: And after that, if they're gonna play digs in the slot, 1366 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 5: so that's one thing. I know, you think they're gonna 1367 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 5: play digs in the slot, I'd see Moore as a Z. 1368 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,440 Speaker 5: So now you're down to Jalen Polk. 1369 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's kind of it. 1370 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:33,560 Speaker 1: And like Kedrick Bourne, I guess, I guess. 1371 01:03:32,680 --> 01:03:35,080 Speaker 5: If you feel good about those as your slot options, 1372 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 5: especially in a different slot than a different kind of 1373 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 5: slot player than maybe Polk is. I kind of want 1374 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 5: to do this later in the show, but I'll just 1375 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 5: bring it up now. Like there's always two or three 1376 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 5: guys that I think the Patriots are gonna take. You know, 1377 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 5: everything tells me the Patriots are gonna take that I 1378 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,439 Speaker 5: want to get into a mock draft that I don't 1379 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,240 Speaker 5: end up getting in, and usually they end up taking 1380 01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:58,440 Speaker 5: one of those guys, and it bugs me because I 1381 01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 5: didn't put him in both Iowa State receivers or in 1382 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 5: that category. 1383 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 1: For me, this year. 1384 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 5: I did one last night. I was texting about this. 1385 01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 5: I was trying to get Noel or Higgins in. Yeah, 1386 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 5: I couldn't make it work. I ended up putting Tray Harrison, 1387 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 5: who I think is a fit too. But like I 1388 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 5: bet you, I'm gonna regret not putting one of the 1389 01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 5: Iowa state wide receivers in. But if I put one in, 1390 01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:18,640 Speaker 5: they would have taken the other, so I would regret 1391 01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:20,280 Speaker 5: it either way. But I regret not getting those guys 1392 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 5: my mock draps. 1393 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: It's interesting. The nole thing to me is interesting, and 1394 01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:27,280 Speaker 1: I know that I was thinking. It was yesterday that 1395 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 1: that Los Angeles the Chargers put out bear side of 1396 01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:32,600 Speaker 1: the trade call for Ladd McConkie, and it just kind 1397 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:35,120 Speaker 1: of brought the whole thing back up again at the 1398 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 1: Patriots passing on Ladd McConkie. And I do wonder if 1399 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 1: this time around they say, well, we want to take 1400 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: a receiver here, Knowle's the best receiver. We literally just 1401 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,000 Speaker 1: made this mistake a year ago, passing on the receiver 1402 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: because it was too redundant to the guys we already have, like, 1403 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 1: we're not going to do that again, and we're just 1404 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 1: gonna take Jalen Rowle to your point about the slot, 1405 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 1: Like I think Diggs is a Z. But in historically, 1406 01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:01,600 Speaker 1: you know, there's two different types of of like Patriot slots. Right, 1407 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 1: There's like the Welker Edelman slot that's truly a third 1408 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 1: receiver that comes on the field in eleven and plays 1409 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:10,760 Speaker 1: the slot. And then there's the Julian Edelman slot who's 1410 01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 1: kind of like a moveable piece that is really truly 1411 01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 1: playing the Z, but he's playing like a fifty to 1412 01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 1: fifty split of inside outside. So I see Stefan Diggs 1413 01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 1: playing more in that like Julian Edelman type of archetype 1414 01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 1: or mold of being an inside outside guy, a movable 1415 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 1: chess piece around the formation type of guy. If they 1416 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,959 Speaker 1: take a guy like Jalen Nole, that's probably his best 1417 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 1: role as well. So how do you make that work? 1418 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 1: Maybe it's Nol in the slot early on. Diggs is 1419 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:40,000 Speaker 1: probably not a long term thing here in New England. 1420 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: It's probably more of a short term thing. So maybe 1421 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six or twenty twenty seven, Nol you know, 1422 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 1: moves over and plays more on the outside. All right, 1423 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: Randy is in Providence. What's up? Randy. 1424 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:54,040 Speaker 2: Hey, how's it going, guys? 1425 01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 1: Eight? 1426 01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 2: Hey, So I had a question that I had two takes. 1427 01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:00,959 Speaker 2: I want to get your reaction on. They'll be quick. 1428 01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:05,480 Speaker 2: So I saw tweet this morning from a guy named. 1429 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: Simon Charles is fake account, fake account? 1430 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:11,520 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, cool? 1431 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:12,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1432 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm not familiar with him, so all right, yeah, 1433 01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 2: then two takes. 1434 01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 1: Stop getting god by Simon Charles. 1435 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:25,200 Speaker 4: Guys keep going, yeah, I'm not a big look, I'm 1436 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 4: not a big Twitter guy. 1437 01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 3: We're to make it funny, you know, We're not making 1438 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 3: funny in that, all right? 1439 01:06:31,640 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 2: So, uh, two takes number one. I think Carter goes 1440 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 2: it too, and that's I don't know that that's like 1441 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 2: the hottest take in the world, but every one in 1442 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:42,800 Speaker 2: the world has Hunter, and I just think like Andrew 1443 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:45,480 Speaker 2: Berry is kind of known for enjoying the gamesmanship of 1444 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 2: this right, and he's kind of like been a little 1445 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 2: too public about it, and I don't know, I think 1446 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:52,320 Speaker 2: that if he was going to sit down with Miles 1447 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 2: Garrett and sell him on a plan, telling him on 1448 01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,800 Speaker 2: like we're going to create this ridiculous path rush is 1449 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:02,440 Speaker 2: more attractive to a guy like Miles Garrett. Then we're 1450 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:05,040 Speaker 2: going to drive Travis Hunter and you, like you were 1451 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,640 Speaker 2: saying earlier, you know, you can't exactly like one hundred 1452 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 2: percent promise, but we're going to get Hunter and Sanders 1453 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:13,480 Speaker 2: or something like that, you know, So I just to me, 1454 01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:16,800 Speaker 2: I think that, you know, I'm always suspicious of news 1455 01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:19,840 Speaker 2: and stuff that comes out in April, especially from guys 1456 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 2: who like to kind of play the media a little bit, 1457 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,400 Speaker 2: like they have that reputation like Andrew Prairie does. And 1458 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:31,160 Speaker 2: then the hotter take that is quick is I think 1459 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 2: that more tight ends go in the top ten than 1460 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 2: quarterbacks or wide receivers were end. 1461 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 3: So I have a take along those lines. 1462 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 5: Thanks for the I think Mason Taylor's going to be 1463 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 5: first round pick, or if not first round, like I 1464 01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 5: don't think he's gonna be on the board of thirty 1465 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 5: eight because Tyler Warren's gonna go top ten, Wavelin's gonna 1466 01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 5: go top twenty, if not top fifteen. Some people think 1467 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 5: he might go before Warren. Mason Taylor right now on 1468 01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 5: the consensus board is fifty. Yeah, So let's see even 1469 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,400 Speaker 5: say loved and falls to twenty were going thirty picks 1470 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 5: without a tight end were going twenty picks a year 1471 01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 5: after brock Bowers in a copycat league like and there's 1472 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:10,480 Speaker 5: teams that need tight ends. The Rams are down there, 1473 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 5: they need a tight end. You could argue the Ravens 1474 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 5: should start getting ready for life after Marc Andrews Denver. 1475 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 5: Denver needs a tight end at twenty. If Loveland goes higher, 1476 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,439 Speaker 5: I think that's probably Loveland's floor floor. Like Mason, I 1477 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,160 Speaker 5: don't think Mason Taylor, there's a I think there's a 1478 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 5: really good chance Mason Taylor is not good at thirty eight. 1479 01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:29,280 Speaker 5: And I'll dress the take up a little bit and say, 1480 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 5: I think Mason Taylor's gonna be. 1481 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 1: A first round ten. So I think it's a I've 1482 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 1: heard that you're not alone. Yeah. To me, it's a 1483 01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,360 Speaker 1: lot of projecting for a first round pick. I get it. 1484 01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,679 Speaker 1: He's a good, great athlete. 1485 01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:41,719 Speaker 3: He's that much of a projection. 1486 01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 1: He's just young, but he just doesn't have he doesn't 1487 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,639 Speaker 1: have a great college production, but he's like the skill 1488 01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: level is very polished for somebody his age. Yeah, I agree, 1489 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:52,599 Speaker 1: he's good well in terms of the ball skills, certainly, 1490 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,719 Speaker 1: like there's some route running detail that he's probably gonna 1491 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 1: have to hone in on in the pros. But he's 1492 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: a great athlete. He's a smooth athlete. He's a smooths catcher. 1493 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:02,679 Speaker 1: The gauntlet drill that he'd put on in the combine 1494 01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 1: was just breathtaking, right, Like, that's exactly how it should look. 1495 01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:09,000 Speaker 1: He's young, he's athletic, you know, all, it checks all 1496 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 1: of the boxes. I do think it's a little bit 1497 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,360 Speaker 1: steep to put him in the first round, but I 1498 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:15,479 Speaker 1: could see him going in the thirties for sure. Like 1499 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:16,920 Speaker 1: I think that he's an early second. 1500 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 5: The real take is, I don't think he's on the 1501 01:09:18,479 --> 01:09:21,960 Speaker 5: board of thirty eight. But you know, as the Great 1502 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 5: League Courses said, we're in the entertainment business. I'll dress 1503 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:25,640 Speaker 5: it up a little bit. 1504 01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 1: Now. The the take about it being there being more 1505 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 1: tight ends than quarterbacks and receivers in the first round, that. 1506 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:32,960 Speaker 3: One topped ten. 1507 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:37,120 Speaker 1: He said, oh, in the top the top ten. Oh well, maybe, 1508 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess maybe sometimes I could see it, 1509 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 1: because how are you gonna get three tight ends in 1510 01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 1: the top ten? Are they gonna be two quarterbacks in 1511 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,320 Speaker 1: the top ten? No, he's said quarterbacks and receivers. 1512 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:48,720 Speaker 5: So what if one of these teams that needs a 1513 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:51,439 Speaker 5: pass catcher, looks at it and likes Colston Lovelin better 1514 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:53,040 Speaker 5: than McMillan or Golden, whoever's there. 1515 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:55,320 Speaker 1: That's a big, big risk. It would have to be 1516 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,559 Speaker 1: two to one. It would have to be two to one. 1517 01:09:57,600 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 5: But like I could see it. I don't know they 1518 01:09:59,439 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 5: did bet on it, but I could see it. You know, 1519 01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:03,560 Speaker 5: it's not gonna be three to two. It's gonna be 1520 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 5: two to one. 1521 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 1: Now if we're talking first round. I don't see it 1522 01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:11,559 Speaker 1: at all. Like I think McMillan, eg, Buka, Matthew Golden 1523 01:10:11,640 --> 01:10:14,839 Speaker 1: our lock first round picks at receiver, and cam Ward's 1524 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 1: a lock first round pick a cord I sneaky love 1525 01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:22,160 Speaker 1: if he falls there, Buka to the Eagles at thirty two, Yeah, 1526 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:23,639 Speaker 1: would be such a good pick. 1527 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:25,840 Speaker 3: And I have not seen nearly enough people talk about that. 1528 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,559 Speaker 1: I know if he'll fall that far, but yeah, it's 1529 01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:30,559 Speaker 1: a good pick. But those four guys are going in 1530 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 1: the first round. I can't get too. 1531 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 5: Because it's it's kind of the same thing with Tet 1532 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 5: where he's not that that level of athlete that teams 1533 01:10:39,360 --> 01:10:41,639 Speaker 5: usually want from wide receivers in the first round. He's 1534 01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 5: incredibly skilled and he's a good player, and it's annoying 1535 01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:47,480 Speaker 5: that we're kind of just banking so much on athleticism 1536 01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:49,719 Speaker 5: and not looking at how good is this guy at football? 1537 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 5: Actually it's not just a track meet. But yeah, like, 1538 01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:54,439 Speaker 5: if Tedt's gonna fall, you can make an argument that 1539 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 5: Buka's gonna fall too, because they're short. They're very different players, 1540 01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:00,000 Speaker 5: but their shortcomings on the surface are kind of. 1541 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,479 Speaker 1: They both don't have top end speed, right, they both 1542 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:06,400 Speaker 1: have that modest place uh top end speed. I wouldn't 1543 01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:08,719 Speaker 1: call it play speed because I think ted is fast 1544 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 1: with the ball in his hands, but they are not 1545 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:14,280 Speaker 1: necessarily dynamic route runners in terms of speed. I could 1546 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:16,320 Speaker 1: I could see a Buka falling a little bit. I 1547 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:20,760 Speaker 1: still feel like he's right in that jsn addison z 1548 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:23,600 Speaker 1: A Flowers sweet spot right right in the twenties somewhere 1549 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 1: makes the most sense for Buka. All right, Rio is 1550 01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 1: in Texas? What's up? 1551 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:28,280 Speaker 6: Rio? 1552 01:11:31,479 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 1: Rio? You're there? Good? 1553 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 2: Uh? 1554 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:38,920 Speaker 7: I'm ready for this draft season to be over. I 1555 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 7: don't know if you all feeling in the same. 1556 01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:44,519 Speaker 1: Way we love the draft season here. Oh yeah, I 1557 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:48,559 Speaker 1: don't know. There's something about like sea ready to be 1558 01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:50,679 Speaker 1: over and like wanting to know who they are actually 1559 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 1: going to take. I think are two different things. I'm 1560 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:53,880 Speaker 1: ready to actually see who they're gonna take. 1561 01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:55,880 Speaker 5: I enjoy it, it's fun to talk about and all that, 1562 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,680 Speaker 5: but there is an element of, like, you put all 1563 01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 5: this work in you want to pay off. You won't 1564 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:02,960 Speaker 5: know if you were right or not right, So it's 1565 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 5: kind of there's a there's a balance there. 1566 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:08,600 Speaker 7: Well, none of us are going to be right in 1567 01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:11,720 Speaker 7: the end, but I just wanted to get a couple 1568 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 7: of things off of my chest and then ask a 1569 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 7: ask a question kind of with Patty was saying earlier. 1570 01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:20,800 Speaker 7: You know, going back, it's been a very long draft 1571 01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:24,760 Speaker 7: season and I spent quite frankly since the words young 1572 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,240 Speaker 7: Tunger Cat were uttered. I've been looking at the draft 1573 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:31,519 Speaker 7: class because I was a little dubious at that point, 1574 01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:34,680 Speaker 7: and this draft has reminded me of a lot of 1575 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,719 Speaker 7: twenty twenty two, where you're going to have a whole 1576 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:40,680 Speaker 7: bunch of prospects debated at the top, and I think 1577 01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:43,320 Speaker 7: we're going to look back in three years and say, yeah, 1578 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:44,680 Speaker 7: there are a couple of guys that are pretty good, 1579 01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:46,720 Speaker 7: and the rest of them that we've been debating, they 1580 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 7: all kind of stink. There's nothing great there. And when 1581 01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 7: Alex brought up earlier with Darius Hayward Day and Michael Crabtree, 1582 01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 7: you know that was a shocking pick at the time. 1583 01:12:57,520 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 7: Neither guy was any good Tree. 1584 01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 1: He was solid. 1585 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 3: He wasn't what he was supposed to be, but he 1586 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 3: was solid. 1587 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 7: Do you want to take him as a tautent tick? 1588 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 7: I don't, But my thinking is why not try to 1589 01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:17,680 Speaker 7: avoid the entire mess basically? And I know you thought that. 1590 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 7: Evan said earlier that the Raiders were going to take 1591 01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,519 Speaker 7: care of Colton Miller. I don't think they are. I 1592 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 7: think they're going to try to go a different direction. 1593 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 7: What do you think about just one for six and 1594 01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:30,599 Speaker 7: Colton Miller? Just valu him as a third round pick 1595 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 7: since you have to pay him, take yourself out of 1596 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,840 Speaker 7: the position where you even have to be thinking, I 1597 01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:39,720 Speaker 7: have to take a tackle at four overall because we 1598 01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 7: got to protect Drake May and now you open up 1599 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:43,559 Speaker 7: the board for yourself at six. 1600 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:46,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a it's a good theory. Rio, thanks for 1601 01:13:46,840 --> 01:13:47,439 Speaker 1: the call. 1602 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,679 Speaker 5: Real quick, just for the record. Yeah, Michael Crabtree seventeen 1603 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:51,479 Speaker 5: game average in his. 1604 01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:53,560 Speaker 1: Career, stuck on Crabtree averaged. 1605 01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 5: Over seventeen games each season, seventy six catches, nine hundred yards, 1606 01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:56,960 Speaker 5: seven touchdowns. 1607 01:13:56,960 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 1: I'd take that. Yeah, he was fine. That's fine. He 1608 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: wasn't what he was full to be, but he's not 1609 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:04,640 Speaker 1: a bad player. Would I trade for for six and 1610 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:07,800 Speaker 1: Colton Miller? Yeah, I probably would. I would. I don't 1611 01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:09,759 Speaker 1: think the Raiders would. I don't know if the Raiders would. 1612 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 1: I also have just decided that the market for these 1613 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 1: trades that include veteran players is so wacky at this 1614 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 1: point that I'm done trying to predict what exactly a 1615 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 1: player is going to get in return. Colton Miller could 1616 01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 1: be worth the first round pick, it could be worth 1617 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,639 Speaker 1: the seventh round pick. I honestly have no idea anymore, 1618 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,439 Speaker 1: because everything seems to be a case by case basis 1619 01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,719 Speaker 1: where it just depends on the supply and the demand 1620 01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:31,559 Speaker 1: and that all this. 1621 01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 3: There's more demand at the position. 1622 01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 5: But yeah, if you're the Raiders, would you rather move 1623 01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:42,240 Speaker 5: up two spots or get the thirty eighth pick outright. 1624 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 1: In this draft? How would they get the thirty eighth 1625 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:47,800 Speaker 1: pick for Coldon Miller? 1626 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:50,200 Speaker 5: I'm saying if those are the two options, right, you 1627 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 5: can either move up probably get the thirty eighth pick. 1628 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:55,040 Speaker 5: I would too if I'm the Raiders. So the whole 1629 01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:56,360 Speaker 5: six to fourth thing that doesn't work. 1630 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,080 Speaker 1: Well unless the only way I guess I wouldn't it 1631 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:02,760 Speaker 1: just to play Devil's advocate, is if the Raiders are 1632 01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:05,680 Speaker 1: convinced that Genty's going five to the Jaguars and they 1633 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:09,360 Speaker 1: want genty, so then you got yes, you're jumping the 1634 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 1: Jaguars to get genty I. 1635 01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:13,680 Speaker 5: It also doesn't matter because there was nothing in that 1636 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:15,760 Speaker 5: report that Colton Miller wants to be traded right, just 1637 01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:18,080 Speaker 5: that he wants a new contract. He's a starting caliber 1638 01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 5: left tackle. We've talked about how hard those guys are 1639 01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 5: to find. That's gonna you're you're that was less than 1640 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 5: a week ago. So you're gonna trade a guy over 1641 01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 5: contract dispute if it's even reached that point it's optional workouts. Yeah, 1642 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 5: you're gonna move on from that guy in a week. 1643 01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:37,360 Speaker 5: Over All that a twenty nine year old starting left tackle, because. 1644 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:38,400 Speaker 1: That's a that's a camp trade. 1645 01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,280 Speaker 5: If it's a trade right now, and the Patriots absolutely 1646 01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:44,439 Speaker 5: cannot say, well, Colton Miller might be available, so we're 1647 01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 5: not gonna take a left tackle. You can't do that 1648 01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,360 Speaker 5: because if he doesn't become available, which odds are he 1649 01:15:49,400 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 5: won't because these tackles never become available. If he doesn't 1650 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:53,639 Speaker 5: become available, now you don't. 1651 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:55,680 Speaker 1: Have a tackle. You the Colton Miller thing. 1652 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 5: It's a nice thought, there it logistically for a million 1653 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:00,240 Speaker 5: reasons won't happen. 1654 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 1: The question that I would pose, and feel free to 1655 01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,599 Speaker 1: call on an email, and and I'm not saying this 1656 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 1: argumentatively necessarily, but the question that I would pose is that, 1657 01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 1: are all these people that are trying to find I'm 1658 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:16,840 Speaker 1: not picking on Rio either, all these people that are 1659 01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 1: trying to find creative ways to get out of taking 1660 01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:22,479 Speaker 1: Will Campbell at for overall or any tackle? Is it because, 1661 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 1: and be honest with yourself, is it because you just 1662 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:28,400 Speaker 1: don't like the player? Yeah? Or is it because you 1663 01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:30,519 Speaker 1: don't like the idea of taking a tackle because it's 1664 01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 1: not fun enough? Right? Like, it's just not like you 1665 01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 1: want to come out of this draft with something that 1666 01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:38,840 Speaker 1: is sexy, something that is appealing, something that is fun, 1667 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,840 Speaker 1: and it socks for Christmas, and you don't want to 1668 01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:43,200 Speaker 1: pull the you know, you don't want to pull the 1669 01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,599 Speaker 1: trigger on socks for Christmas you want the Xbox, And like, 1670 01:16:46,680 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 1: now we're just talking ourselves into every other possible avenue. 1671 01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: You know, take gent ed four, trade back up into 1672 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:56,120 Speaker 1: the twenties for the tackle, trade four for six and 1673 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,960 Speaker 1: Colton Miller, you know, trade a third round pick for 1674 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 1: Colton Miller, and then you don't need to take the 1675 01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:03,679 Speaker 1: tackle at four. We're just trying to find a bunch 1676 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 1: of different ways to avoid taking the tackle. And I'm 1677 01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:09,479 Speaker 1: genuinely curious if that is because you just don't like 1678 01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:12,559 Speaker 1: the players available at the position, or it's because you 1679 01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 1: don't want to take the tackle, because I think a 1680 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,040 Speaker 1: lot for a lot of people is that you just 1681 01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:19,200 Speaker 1: don't want to take the tackle. You just don't. You 1682 01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 1: just don't want the socks and underwear for Christmas. You 1683 01:17:21,880 --> 01:17:28,479 Speaker 1: want the xbox. And sometimes, speaking as an adult right now, 1684 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:32,479 Speaker 1: that's trying to adult and failing miserably telling you right now, 1685 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 1: the socks for Christmas are practical and they're great. And again, 1686 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:36,200 Speaker 1: if you don't. 1687 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,120 Speaker 5: Want Campbell, that's fine, but like you got to tell 1688 01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 5: me then, especially you're like, if you tell me member 1689 01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:42,759 Speaker 5: with four, fine, okay, you believe more in him than Campbell. 1690 01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:44,360 Speaker 1: I'm talking tackles in general. 1691 01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:46,000 Speaker 5: Right, if you're saying I don't want to tackle it 1692 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:47,880 Speaker 5: for you got to tell me either how else you're 1693 01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:51,639 Speaker 5: getting that player or why you're comfortable with Vederian low 1694 01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:52,320 Speaker 5: starting her again? 1695 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:54,679 Speaker 1: All right, Jordan is in Ohio.

Is he looking for 1711 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,799 Speaker 5: a new contract? Is he coming here trying to reset 1712 01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 5: his value? And he plans on hidden free agency? If 1713 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:40,479 Speaker 5: he's coming as a rental, No, I maybe late day three. 1714 01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 5: I'm not trading a top three pick or a top 1715 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:43,360 Speaker 5: uners pick for rental. 1716 01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go crazy and be like, I don't 1717 01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:48,120 Speaker 1: want George Pickens on my type. But I'm just saying 1718 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:52,040 Speaker 1: that I would probably be conservative. I wouldn't give up 1719 01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 1: thirty eight, but I give up seventy seven for George 1720 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 1: Pickens probably, like I. 1721 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:59,080 Speaker 5: Think you kind of not going to sign a new contract. Okay, 1722 01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:00,880 Speaker 5: that he's in the last year's deal. 1723 01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 1: Right, getting there. I don't know if it's the last year. 1724 01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:07,120 Speaker 3: He's in twenty two draft four? Yeah's the second round pick. 1725 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:08,760 Speaker 1: He doesn't have a rookie options, so yes, last year 1726 01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,679 Speaker 1: was deal? All right?

I think you're probably 1750 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 1: looking up a giving up the twenty twenty six first 1751 01:20:08,439 --> 01:20:10,439 Speaker 1: round pick.

I'm not necessarily a baseball guy. 1763 01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 1: There's some baseball people that think he's the best player 1764 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 1: of all time in baseball, right, like that, that's not 1765 01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:52,040 Speaker 1: a hot take to say that, Shoeyo Tani might be 1766 01:20:52,080 --> 01:20:54,960 Speaker 1: the best player of all time at his sport. If 1767 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,679 Speaker 1: you are comparing that guy to that player in shoe 1768 01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 1: Heyotani and Travis Hunter, you are taking Travis Hunter because 1769 01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,559 Speaker 1: if three years from now you ended up being right 1770 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:08,160 Speaker 1: and you passed on show Hey Otania Football, then you 1771 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 1: are going to look like a moron. So you're not 1772 01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 1: doing that. 1773 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:13,680 Speaker 5: It's going to cost the future first either way, I 1774 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:17,679 Speaker 5: don't it's not worth They need more than one great player, 1775 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,280 Speaker 5: and Travis Hunter is a great player, but he's not worth, 1776 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 5: you know, getting a potential game changer this year, whether 1777 01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:26,920 Speaker 5: it be Will Campbell, Jalen Walker, even Ash and Genty 1778 01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,120 Speaker 5: somebody else. Yeah, plus whoever're gonna get next year in 1779 01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:32,800 Speaker 5: a better draft. It's it's not worth it. 1780 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. All right, Henry is in DC. What's up? Henry? 1781 01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:41,639 Speaker 10: Hey, guys, thanks so much for taking my call. Love 1782 01:21:41,720 --> 01:21:45,519 Speaker 10: listening to the show. You getty, good listener. I like 1783 01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:48,639 Speaker 10: to run a lot of draft simulations, and there's two 1784 01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 10: situations I was interested in. 1785 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 2: Your take on. 1786 01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 1: Okay. 1787 01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 10: The first is in the second round. I feel like 1788 01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:57,559 Speaker 10: there's always three or four guys that I really want, 1789 01:21:57,640 --> 01:21:59,479 Speaker 10: and none of them fall to thirty eight. So for 1790 01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:02,559 Speaker 10: each of year, who's someone that you'd be pounding the 1791 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:05,400 Speaker 10: table to trade up to get at like thirty three 1792 01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 10: or thirty four? And then in the third round, I 1793 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:12,920 Speaker 10: feel like there's just so many good options that I 1794 01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:15,320 Speaker 10: can't pick between them, and I never know what to do. 1795 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,360 Speaker 10: So my two questions are who would you trade up 1796 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 10: to get at thirty three or thirty four? And then 1797 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,559 Speaker 10: what would an A plus third round look like? 1798 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 1: To each you O great good questions, Henry, Who would 1799 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 1: I trade up for in the second round? Line? There 1800 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:33,640 Speaker 1: are a lot, I think it all. It's hard to 1801 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:35,360 Speaker 1: answer because it depends on who they take it for. 1802 01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:37,519 Speaker 1: Right If they don't take a tackle at four, then 1803 01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 1: I they're trading up for a tackle, right, like they 1804 01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:43,519 Speaker 1: have to trade up for Connorly or a nursery in 1805 01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:46,479 Speaker 1: my mind. The other guy that you know, I don't 1806 01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:48,000 Speaker 1: know if I necessarily would need to trade up for 1807 01:22:48,080 --> 01:22:51,240 Speaker 1: him or would but just in terms of, you know, 1808 01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,920 Speaker 1: for the sake of conversation, as they like to say, 1809 01:22:54,240 --> 01:22:56,920 Speaker 1: one of the more fascinating players in this draft to 1810 01:22:56,960 --> 01:23:01,000 Speaker 1: me from Patriots perspective is Luther Burden because they are 1811 01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 1: a team that needs special talent on the offensive side 1812 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,720 Speaker 1: of the ball that needs game changing skill talent on 1813 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:08,080 Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball, which is one hundred 1814 01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:12,040 Speaker 1: and ten percent what Luther Burden is. But they've also 1815 01:23:12,479 --> 01:23:17,919 Speaker 1: spent the entire offseason targeting guys that are high character players, 1816 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 1: that are good locker room guys, that are leaders, that 1817 01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:23,920 Speaker 1: are captain material, all these kinds of things. And if 1818 01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,240 Speaker 1: Luther Burden falls out of the first round, it's going 1819 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,400 Speaker 1: to be because of the football character question marks, right, 1820 01:23:29,400 --> 01:23:32,640 Speaker 1: It's going to be about the person Luther Burden, not 1821 01:23:32,720 --> 01:23:35,800 Speaker 1: the player Luther Burden. So if the Patriots are sitting 1822 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:39,120 Speaker 1: there at thirty eight and Luther Burden's falling because of 1823 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:44,400 Speaker 1: the concerns about his character and his makeup, that to 1824 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:49,880 Speaker 1: me is the ultimate litmus test of the Mike Rabol program. 1825 01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:53,479 Speaker 1: Would they take the risk on a player like Luther 1826 01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:56,639 Speaker 1: Burden Because to me, and I don't know the guy, 1827 01:23:56,920 --> 01:23:59,280 Speaker 1: I don't do the vetting. I'm not a big dom 1828 01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:02,320 Speaker 1: in Philadelphi, right, I'm not. I'm not making calls and 1829 01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:06,160 Speaker 1: finding out about these guys. But to me, Luther Burden 1830 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 1: would really tip the scales for the Patriots, Like if 1831 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:10,479 Speaker 1: they came out of this draft with Will Campbell and 1832 01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:15,120 Speaker 1: Luther Burden, Like, I am absolutely ecstatic. Would they do it? 1833 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:19,760 Speaker 1: Would they take Luther Burden? I'm prepared to be disappointed. 1834 01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:23,040 Speaker 5: He's like everything we've heard they're not looking for with 1835 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 5: some of the red flags, which I think are overblown. 1836 01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:27,040 Speaker 3: I go watch Drew Locke. 1837 01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:29,920 Speaker 1: I'd be pissed to Brady after Brady Cook, thank you. 1838 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:32,919 Speaker 1: I liked Drew Locke. That do you still like? 1839 01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:33,639 Speaker 3: I do still like Drew. 1840 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:35,200 Speaker 1: That's why you won't quit Drew. 1841 01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:37,920 Speaker 5: I won't quit Drew Locke and you won't quit Tes Johnson. 1842 01:24:38,040 --> 01:24:41,120 Speaker 5: But I'd be frustrated to about him. He is you 1843 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 5: said it there. 1844 01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:46,840 Speaker 1: He is exactly the kind of receiver the Patriots need. 1845 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: He is explosive breaker, He's a yeah, game breaker is 1846 01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 1: a great way to put it. But are those off 1847 01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:55,000 Speaker 1: field concerns going to be an issue? The only reason 1848 01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:57,120 Speaker 1: he's we're even having this conversation is because of those 1849 01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:01,120 Speaker 1: because the issues aren't on the tape. So I'm prepared 1850 01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 1: to be let down by that. But like, if he's 1851 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 1: there at thirty eight or within range of trade up, 1852 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:06,760 Speaker 1: like I would love for them to take him, I'm 1853 01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:10,720 Speaker 1: just not expecting it. Yep, all right, Ken is in Louisiana. 1854 01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 1: What's up? Ken? 1855 01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:17,240 Speaker 4: Hey Evan, how's it going good? Before I do anything, 1856 01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 4: I wanted to thank both of you guys for the 1857 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,559 Speaker 4: amount of research and the affort you put into this 1858 01:25:21,680 --> 01:25:26,120 Speaker 4: draft season, because you've made this incredibly enjoyable and informative 1859 01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:29,400 Speaker 4: in you know, you two are my go to guys 1860 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:33,959 Speaker 4: for Thank you, Thank you. It means a lot of research. Secondly, 1861 01:25:34,040 --> 01:25:36,799 Speaker 4: I really you know, I was reading a column today 1862 01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:39,200 Speaker 4: and it kind of mirrored something I was thinking was, 1863 01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:42,519 Speaker 4: this is a very obvious pick for the Patriots. They 1864 01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:46,640 Speaker 4: have always been talking about protecting the protecting the quarterback, 1865 01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 4: and they've been talking about this for a long time. 1866 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:55,720 Speaker 4: And uh, you know, Will Campbell may not be what 1867 01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:59,240 Speaker 4: everybody thinks they should get for a fourth round pick, 1868 01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 4: but you worth a fourth you know, fourth pick. But 1869 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 4: he's worth a fourth pick to us, you know, on 1870 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:08,479 Speaker 4: a on a on a team level. You know, other 1871 01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:11,599 Speaker 4: people maybe you know or maybe that's not the case 1872 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:13,920 Speaker 4: if you've got a line, but you know, to go 1873 01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:17,479 Speaker 4: back to your Christmas uh uh gift, we got holes 1874 01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:21,000 Speaker 4: in our socks and uh and this guy you know 1875 01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:24,000 Speaker 4: has got a darning needle and can make it better. 1876 01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 4: One of the other things I was I lived for 1877 01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:32,240 Speaker 4: ten years in Monroe, Louisiana, where he's from. It is 1878 01:26:32,280 --> 01:26:36,519 Speaker 4: a football rich area. It's like a backwater for everything else. 1879 01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:39,920 Speaker 4: But I mean all that is a really football rich area. 1880 01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:43,400 Speaker 4: Just a couple of names. Cam Robinson was from Monroe, 1881 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 4: Andrew Whitworth was from Monroe. So you know, kids grow 1882 01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:50,599 Speaker 4: up there, you know, they're not just the tallest kid, 1883 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:53,800 Speaker 4: and they on the team and they get to play 1884 01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 4: quarterback and then they go to hockey hockey practice at 1885 01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 4: the end of the season. They grow up, you know, 1886 01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:04,760 Speaker 4: wanting to be lineman or something like that. And so 1887 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:09,479 Speaker 4: there's a very very rich history for that area. You know. Well, 1888 01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:14,000 Speaker 4: Milt Williams, you know, played college ball there. Doug Peterson 1889 01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:16,880 Speaker 4: played college ball there. You know, so there's you know, 1890 01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:20,400 Speaker 4: it's a really football rich area. Anyway, That's that's all 1891 01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:23,160 Speaker 4: I had. And thank you very much for all the 1892 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:24,280 Speaker 4: really good work you've. 1893 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:25,400 Speaker 2: Done for us this season. 1894 01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:28,599 Speaker 1: Thank you. Thanks Ken. That was a great call, not 1895 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:30,080 Speaker 1: just because he was praising us. 1896 01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 3: But I love his research. So I just looked it up. 1897 01:27:32,560 --> 01:27:35,000 Speaker 5: Neville High Schools where where Will Campbell went to uh 1898 01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:36,680 Speaker 5: went to high school there. I don't know if there's 1899 01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 5: more than one high school in Monroe, but it's a 1900 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:43,960 Speaker 5: pretty good alumni list. Larry Anderson, Bubby Brister, who else. 1901 01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:44,240 Speaker 1: Is on here? 1902 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:48,040 Speaker 5: Some other older players I haven't heard of. Justin Ellis 1903 01:27:48,040 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 5: was a good player back in the day. Caventre Turpin, 1904 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:56,600 Speaker 5: Max Mitchell also the head strength and conditioning coach for 1905 01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:57,160 Speaker 5: the Chiefs. 1906 01:27:57,560 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 3: There you go, who's now with the Bills. I guess 1907 01:27:59,200 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 3: that's not updated. 1908 01:28:01,720 --> 01:28:04,040 Speaker 1: I thought he put it great where you know Will 1909 01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:06,759 Speaker 1: Campbell And this is what we've all been pounding the table. 1910 01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:09,600 Speaker 1: It might not be the best pick for everybody, it 1911 01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:11,439 Speaker 1: might not be the best pick in every year for 1912 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 1: the fourth overall pick, but for this team, for this year, 1913 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:16,040 Speaker 1: it's the best pick that they can possibly make. I 1914 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 1: think that's the best way to put it. That's a 1915 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:22,720 Speaker 1: perfect way to put it. I would just say you 1916 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:26,880 Speaker 1: and I started doing this together in twenty eighteen seventeen 1917 01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 1: right around there. You and I have never covered a 1918 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 1: draft where left tackle wasn't in need. We have never 1919 01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:36,439 Speaker 1: done it. We have never covered a draft. Maybe the 1920 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:40,200 Speaker 1: only time was like nineteen right after they had drafted 1921 01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 1: Isaiah Win in eighteen. I guess they probably, but I 1922 01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,400 Speaker 1: think assume that Win was going to be the left 1923 01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 1: tackle in nineteen coming off the injury. But he's coming 1924 01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:49,000 Speaker 1: off an injury, right. 1925 01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 5: There were questions about him coming off the injury, and 1926 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:53,840 Speaker 5: I did they need a right tackle that year? 1927 01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:54,599 Speaker 1: Was that? 1928 01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:57,280 Speaker 3: When after they? Did they like Cannon go after eighteen. 1929 01:28:57,080 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 1: Or after nineteen? Yeah, you have to, I don't. 1930 01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:01,920 Speaker 5: I'm okay still at Cannon, So maybe twenty nineteen is 1931 01:29:01,960 --> 01:29:02,479 Speaker 5: the one year. 1932 01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:05,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was coming off a Win was coming 1933 01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:07,320 Speaker 1: off of torn achilles at the time. He tore his 1934 01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:11,200 Speaker 1: achilles in the preseason the year before. We have never 1935 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:14,320 Speaker 1: covered a draft where the Patriots haven't had a need 1936 01:29:14,360 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 1: at left tackle. They have also and we're getting old. 1937 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 1: So that's we're going on in like eight drafts where 1938 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 1: we've talked about tackles every single year. We are also 1939 01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:28,400 Speaker 1: going on two to three years now of the Patriots 1940 01:29:28,439 --> 01:29:31,080 Speaker 1: having some of the worst offensive line play in the NFL, 1941 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 1: the worst like twenty twenty two, twenty three, twenty four, 1942 01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:38,160 Speaker 1: when you've just seen a precipitous drop off of their 1943 01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:42,040 Speaker 1: offensive line play from bad to worse here in New England. 1944 01:29:42,240 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 1: So if they draft. Will Campbell had four overall, which 1945 01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:48,080 Speaker 1: is certainly what it seems like. You need to come 1946 01:29:48,080 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 1: out of this draft with the dancer at left tackle. 1947 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:52,240 Speaker 1: You need to come out of this draft elevating the 1948 01:29:52,320 --> 01:29:56,519 Speaker 1: talent in the room on the offensive line. And it's 1949 01:29:56,840 --> 01:29:59,960 Speaker 1: easy to sit back now and not want to build 1950 01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:03,320 Speaker 1: through the trenches. And then everybody gets to the season, yep, 1951 01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 1: and they watched Drake May get battered and beaten for 1952 01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:10,799 Speaker 1: six months. They watch Mandre Stevenson fumble a bajillion times 1953 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:13,640 Speaker 1: and have no place to run the entire year, and 1954 01:30:13,720 --> 01:30:16,320 Speaker 1: everything gets blamed on the offensive line, and then we 1955 01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:18,639 Speaker 1: get to April and nobody wants to draft alignment. 1956 01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:19,360 Speaker 4: Right. 1957 01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 1: It's I get it. It's it's not fun. Like I 1958 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:24,920 Speaker 1: would much rather than get Travis Hunter just for the 1959 01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:26,920 Speaker 1: pure excitement. I think he's a better player too. But 1960 01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:30,280 Speaker 1: even if I thought they were equal, I probably might 1961 01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:33,759 Speaker 1: want Travis Hunter more because it's more exciting, it's more fun. 1962 01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:38,519 Speaker 1: But sometimes you just need to go with what you need, 1963 01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:41,320 Speaker 1: and what they need is the left tackle. I just 1964 01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,240 Speaker 1: I thought that the callers said it great. It just 1965 01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:46,240 Speaker 1: is the best pick for them this year. 1966 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:49,679 Speaker 5: So when I when we work together in twenty nineteen, 1967 01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 5: we covered that draft I didn't like, so I apologize 1968 01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:54,760 Speaker 5: in advance that I can't do this to myself. So 1969 01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 5: I don't want you to think I'm taking a personal shot. 1970 01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:58,679 Speaker 5: I found your mock draft from twenty nineteen. 1971 01:30:59,240 --> 01:30:59,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to know. 1972 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:00,240 Speaker 11: No. 1973 01:31:01,520 --> 01:31:04,800 Speaker 3: So thirty two, Yeah, Jerry Tillery Notre Dame. 1974 01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:05,400 Speaker 4: Ah. 1975 01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:07,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, now I did like him defensive tackle. 1976 01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:08,760 Speaker 3: In the second round. 1977 01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:11,320 Speaker 5: You actually had them trading up in the second round 1978 01:31:11,360 --> 01:31:13,920 Speaker 5: to take offensive tackle. 1979 01:31:14,160 --> 01:31:17,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, Dalton Reisner. I was right about that, So clearly 1980 01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:18,360 Speaker 1: he's a better guard. 1981 01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:18,800 Speaker 3: Would you say? 1982 01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:20,559 Speaker 5: As always, we can expect a lot of trades from 1983 01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:22,920 Speaker 5: Belichick on draft weekend. We try to predict one here, 1984 01:31:22,960 --> 01:31:25,800 Speaker 5: and it comes back to the cluster theory, whatever that is. 1985 01:31:25,800 --> 01:31:26,640 Speaker 3: This is a strong. 1986 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 5: Offensive tackle class, but the drop off after a certain 1987 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:32,599 Speaker 5: point is considerable. The Patriots jump up ten spots at 1988 01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 5: one of the premier players at the position. New England 1989 01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:37,439 Speaker 5: could opt for left tackle prospects like old Missus Greg 1990 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,120 Speaker 5: Little or Caleb McGarry, and I also like the versatile 1991 01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:42,640 Speaker 5: Titus Howard. Here, you weren't necessarily wrong, but we go 1992 01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:45,719 Speaker 5: with Reisner as a scheme, as a system and culture fit. 1993 01:31:46,560 --> 01:31:47,960 Speaker 3: You said Scar would love him. 1994 01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:50,559 Speaker 1: And uh tough guyoun on the. 1995 01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 5: Right side, Shack Mason and Reisner would give the Patriots 1996 01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 5: two bulldozers. So we were talking tackle in the top 1997 01:31:56,400 --> 01:31:58,840 Speaker 5: maybe not in first pick. I also found the mock 1998 01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:01,760 Speaker 5: draft tracker. There's a lot to Jerry Tillery, a lot 1999 01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:04,880 Speaker 5: of Yeah, there's some quarterbacks in there, Drew Locke, Will Greer, 2000 01:32:05,840 --> 01:32:09,400 Speaker 5: shout out to Rick Sarah Tella who had Jeffrey Simmons. 2001 01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:12,080 Speaker 1: So that that was, But there there are a couple 2002 01:32:12,400 --> 01:32:15,120 Speaker 1: bad draft. We were talking tackle in the top one hundred. 2003 01:32:15,240 --> 01:32:19,800 Speaker 1: We all were so sure that Belichick would never draft 2004 01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:21,640 Speaker 1: or receive in the first round. Yeah, yeah, and so 2005 01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:24,040 Speaker 1: especially that year. None of us were on that scent 2006 01:32:24,200 --> 01:32:27,479 Speaker 1: because of that. But good pull, good pull, not terrible. 2007 01:32:28,080 --> 01:32:29,599 Speaker 5: Hang on, you want the rest of it while we're here, 2008 01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 5: Just just a couple the whole thing. Will Greer, Jase Sternberger. 2009 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 5: They did get Will Gear eventually. Yeah, you had me 2010 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:39,439 Speaker 5: Cole Hardman in the third round, ninety seventh. Overall, there 2011 01:32:39,439 --> 01:32:41,840 Speaker 5: we go. Pats Way wires the third round. This one 2012 01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:44,800 Speaker 5: directly relates to their tears system. You said he could 2013 01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:47,280 Speaker 5: be an element player who moves around the formation, can 2014 01:32:47,320 --> 01:32:50,800 Speaker 5: return kicks. Okay, who else did you have here? Most 2015 01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:52,200 Speaker 5: of these Day three guys didn't make it in the 2016 01:32:52,280 --> 01:32:54,360 Speaker 5: league so well, but their Day three Oh yeah, they 2017 01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:56,720 Speaker 5: had like five seventh round pixels here. Yeah, so you 2018 01:32:56,800 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 5: take me Cole Hardman ninety seventh. You took Jalen herb 2019 01:33:00,040 --> 01:33:02,240 Speaker 5: one thirty fourth and then they had four picks to 2020 01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:04,720 Speaker 5: fifty five picks. You must have made some trades five 2021 01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:05,840 Speaker 5: picks to fifty or later. 2022 01:33:06,040 --> 01:33:07,880 Speaker 1: I did like Jalen Hurd as well. I thought Jalen 2023 01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:09,240 Speaker 1: Hurd was gonna work. He's made sense. 2024 01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:11,240 Speaker 3: He met with We went with the Rutgers guy late. 2025 01:33:11,360 --> 01:33:11,799 Speaker 1: Sure. 2026 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:16,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a bunch of linemen on both sides. Nick Easley, Iowa, 2027 01:33:16,920 --> 01:33:18,360 Speaker 5: I like vaguely remember. 2028 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 1: Him, always easy to go at the lineman. Uh So 2029 01:33:21,120 --> 01:33:23,679 Speaker 1: every year we can safely say we've been talking about tackles, 2030 01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:26,320 Speaker 1: whether it's left or right or whatever the case may be. 2031 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:29,160 Speaker 1: I just I'm sick of it. I'm sick of talking 2032 01:33:29,200 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 1: about tackles. I'm sick of the offensive line, you know, 2033 01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 1: not being up to snuff, not being NFL caliber. And 2034 01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:37,400 Speaker 1: I think what we've learned over the last couple of 2035 01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:41,240 Speaker 1: years no, it doesn't necessarily move the needle like a 2036 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,439 Speaker 1: top flight receiver would, like a Jamar Chase level receiver would. 2037 01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:46,960 Speaker 1: But we've learned over the years is that you literally 2038 01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:50,400 Speaker 1: cannot operate with a bad offensive line. It doesn't have 2039 01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:52,360 Speaker 1: to be great, it doesn't have to be elite. It 2040 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:56,120 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be Philly's offensive line or Detroit's offensive line. 2041 01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:58,280 Speaker 1: It can be middle of the pack, but you have 2042 01:33:58,360 --> 01:34:01,719 Speaker 1: to be at a certain le on the offensive line 2043 01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 1: because you just can't call plays right with an offensive 2044 01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:07,080 Speaker 1: line at that And we've seen it. So I just 2045 01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:10,679 Speaker 1: let's let's take the socks for Christmas people. It'll be okay? 2046 01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:14,120 Speaker 1: Will is uh? Is that Kentucky? Maybe I don't know. 2047 01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:15,840 Speaker 1: I'm bad with my abbreviations. What's up? Will? 2048 01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:18,040 Speaker 2: Not much? 2049 01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:21,639 Speaker 12: I'm with the socks and some Kentucky thing or the 2050 01:34:21,680 --> 01:34:25,760 Speaker 12: socks for Christmas thing? Because receivers look better when the 2051 01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:29,160 Speaker 12: quarterbacks got more time to throw the football. If you 2052 01:34:29,160 --> 01:34:31,120 Speaker 12: can't even finish this drop before you're getting hit, how 2053 01:34:31,240 --> 01:34:34,720 Speaker 12: you getting even get the ball out? I'm tired of 2054 01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:36,879 Speaker 12: wat of some people get smacked back there playing quarterback. 2055 01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:41,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough? Well what else you got? 2056 01:34:44,520 --> 01:34:48,200 Speaker 12: Oh question? What's what would what's the chances of them, 2057 01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:51,320 Speaker 12: like somebody like say the Giants throwing a curveball since 2058 01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:53,960 Speaker 12: they need a right tackle and getting Membo instead of 2059 01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:58,559 Speaker 12: abdual Carter because then they move Evan Neil into guards. 2060 01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and thanks for the call. Well, I I 2061 01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:04,920 Speaker 1: don't think there's a very good chance of that. Now. 2062 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:07,200 Speaker 1: Is there a chance that they trade out of the pick? 2063 01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:10,240 Speaker 1: They trade the Giants trade back with somebody so somebody 2064 01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 1: else can take at dual Carter three? Sure, there's no 2065 01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 1: reason for them to take at dual Carter Act three 2066 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:17,200 Speaker 1: or excuse me, arm On Membo. Yeah right, No, like 2067 01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:19,599 Speaker 1: they can trade out of that pick, somebody else will 2068 01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 1: take the pick for Abdul Carter and they can still 2069 01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:25,400 Speaker 1: take Membo at six. Right, anybody sneaks up in there, 2070 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:26,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be genty. 2071 01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:26,639 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2072 01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:28,200 Speaker 1: Do the Giants over correct? 2073 01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:30,840 Speaker 5: Is Joe Shane over correct on losing Saquon Barkley and 2074 01:35:30,840 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 5: take genty and three because that's the one. 2075 01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:33,680 Speaker 1: If you move back you might not get them. 2076 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2077 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:37,080 Speaker 1: So we have about approximately one thousand emails coming in. 2078 01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:39,679 Speaker 5: A little little breaking news real quick here. The Saints 2079 01:35:39,680 --> 01:35:42,080 Speaker 5: are picking up chrys Olave's fifty year options. So he's 2080 01:35:42,120 --> 01:35:44,920 Speaker 5: been kind of loosely floated as a Patriots trade target and. 2081 01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:46,600 Speaker 1: Now is an extra year on his contract. Okay, And 2082 01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:49,360 Speaker 1: they're not picking up the option on Trevor Penning, all right, 2083 01:35:49,439 --> 01:35:50,519 Speaker 1: Trevor Penning is not good. 2084 01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:52,439 Speaker 5: If Will Campbell is a guard, like you all say, 2085 01:35:52,560 --> 01:35:53,799 Speaker 5: Trevor Penning is not good, it's. 2086 01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:55,439 Speaker 3: Gonna be a lot of copio Trevor Penning. 2087 01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:57,000 Speaker 1: Trevor Penning is a big draft bust. 2088 01:35:57,439 --> 01:35:59,599 Speaker 3: He should probably be played. I think he'd be okay 2089 01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 3: as the guard. 2090 01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:02,639 Speaker 1: That's a guy. He's tall though, he's like a big 2091 01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:05,400 Speaker 1: it's true, I don't. I think McKay Beckton kind of 2092 01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:07,639 Speaker 1: proved you can have tall guards though. But Makai Becton 2093 01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:11,240 Speaker 1: is like huge, right, Like he's Trevor Petting's like a 2094 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:13,720 Speaker 1: tall athlete, like he's kind of like a Nate Soldier build. Yeah, 2095 01:36:14,040 --> 01:36:19,200 Speaker 1: all right. Marcel is from Austria. He's emailing in and uh, 2096 01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,560 Speaker 1: I look, I understand Marcel's train of thought here a 2097 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:23,040 Speaker 1: little bit. 2098 01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:23,679 Speaker 4: Uh. 2099 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:26,120 Speaker 1: He has a quick draft question for us, which isn't 2100 01:36:26,120 --> 01:36:27,960 Speaker 1: so quick. But that's okay, Marcel, we still love you. 2101 01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 1: If Membo can't play left tackle because he can't make 2102 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:34,759 Speaker 1: the switch from right to left. And if Campbell can't 2103 01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:38,080 Speaker 1: play left tackle because of the arm wingspan, then shouldn't 2104 01:36:38,520 --> 01:36:42,240 Speaker 1: the Patriots take Armond Membu essentially? And to me, which 2105 01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:45,240 Speaker 1: I've said before, which I'm saying a lot today, to me, 2106 01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:50,200 Speaker 1: this is the best pro Membu argument for the Membu people. 2107 01:36:50,520 --> 01:36:53,719 Speaker 1: The pro Membo argument is that no matter what, Membu 2108 01:36:53,840 --> 01:36:55,960 Speaker 1: is a tackle, he might be a right tackle, but 2109 01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:59,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna play tackle, so he's either your left tackle 2110 01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:02,080 Speaker 1: or he's right tackle in the future. Morgan Moses is 2111 01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:05,240 Speaker 1: thirty four years old. Either way, he's there's a path 2112 01:37:05,280 --> 01:37:09,400 Speaker 1: for him to be a starting NFL tackle. For Will Campbell, 2113 01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:14,760 Speaker 1: the backup plan is guard. So in theory, Membo would 2114 01:37:14,800 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 1: have a little bit more value positionally than Will camp I. 2115 01:37:17,800 --> 01:37:20,479 Speaker 5: Just think you shouldn't And I look, I get drafts 2116 01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:22,760 Speaker 5: haven't gone here well last few years. Besides last year, 2117 01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:26,960 Speaker 5: you shouldn't be drafting a player based off of what 2118 01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:30,639 Speaker 5: is the worst case scenario, Like that's just drafting scared 2119 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,240 Speaker 5: to me. Yeah, because if Campbell hits, he's going to 2120 01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:34,639 Speaker 5: be a better left tackle than Membo. 2121 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 3: If he adds I think so. 2122 01:37:36,760 --> 01:37:39,040 Speaker 5: And somebodys say you shouldn't just draft for the ceiling either, 2123 01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:41,760 Speaker 5: like there has to be a happy medium, which flying arguing, well, 2124 01:37:41,800 --> 01:37:44,960 Speaker 5: if it all hits the fan, you'd rather end up 2125 01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 5: with the worst version of arm On Membo than the 2126 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:51,600 Speaker 5: worst version of Will Campbell. That's probably true, but you 2127 01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:54,000 Speaker 5: shouldn't be drafting with that mentality. That's kind of sad 2128 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,519 Speaker 5: if that's how you're approaching it. Yeah, And honestly, if 2129 01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:58,759 Speaker 5: you're gonna draft purely on four, then it's Ashton genty. 2130 01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. Ashton gen is the highest floor of any of 2131 01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:03,240 Speaker 1: these guys were talking about. So I do think that 2132 01:38:03,240 --> 01:38:06,080 Speaker 1: that is it's an outside the box reason to take 2133 01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:08,760 Speaker 1: armand Membu. Yeah, but it is the best case for 2134 01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:11,479 Speaker 1: Armel Membu, which is that he's going to play tackle. 2135 01:38:11,520 --> 01:38:14,559 Speaker 1: It just depends on which side of the formation he's 2136 01:38:14,560 --> 01:38:17,240 Speaker 1: going to be on. At the same time, I grade 2137 01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:21,320 Speaker 1: out Will Campbell higher at tackle than I grade out Membo. Right, 2138 01:38:21,479 --> 01:38:24,200 Speaker 1: And a couple of the other questions on Campbell and 2139 01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:26,400 Speaker 1: Membu that I wanted to get to one other. I'm 2140 01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:28,880 Speaker 1: sorry I lost the email, but I'll just ask the question, 2141 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:33,880 Speaker 1: was you know that Membu had better tape against the 2142 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:36,840 Speaker 1: same competition. They both were in the SEC, they both 2143 01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:42,320 Speaker 1: went through the SEC gauntlet last year. The only pushback 2144 01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 1: I would have about that is that I don't think 2145 01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:49,200 Speaker 1: that their past blocking reps were apples to apples. I 2146 01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:52,040 Speaker 1: think Will Campbell had tougher assignments. I think Will Campbell 2147 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:56,000 Speaker 1: was left more consistently on an island without chip help, 2148 01:38:56,080 --> 01:39:01,040 Speaker 1: without moving pockets, like straight NFL styled rop back passing, 2149 01:39:01,320 --> 01:39:04,040 Speaker 1: compared to Membu, which I thought was a little bit 2150 01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:05,439 Speaker 1: more helped out by Missouri. 2151 01:39:05,600 --> 01:39:10,560 Speaker 5: And it's also Missouri's running more RPOs, more play action screens, 2152 01:39:10,680 --> 01:39:15,080 Speaker 5: whereas it's it LSU was straight set the pocket. You 2153 01:39:15,160 --> 01:39:16,960 Speaker 5: just set the pocket for a guy that had no 2154 01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:21,240 Speaker 5: clue where to go in there. But yeah, I'm with 2155 01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:21,680 Speaker 5: you on that. 2156 01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:27,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a little bit of so PFF tracks true 2157 01:39:27,240 --> 01:39:32,080 Speaker 1: pass sets. Yeah, that's the which takes out play action screen, RPO, 2158 01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:36,000 Speaker 1: quick game and really measures like the dropbacks where the 2159 01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:38,679 Speaker 1: quarterback actually has to hold the ball for a couple beats, right, 2160 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,639 Speaker 1: and you're really pass blocking like in an NFL level. 2161 01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:46,280 Speaker 1: Membo had almost I think it might have been one 2162 01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 1: hundred less true pass sets last year than Will Campbell 2163 01:39:50,479 --> 01:39:54,240 Speaker 1: one hundred I think, which is a lot. So Campbell 2164 01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:58,000 Speaker 1: by far had the most out of the top six tackles. Right, Yeah, 2165 01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:00,759 Speaker 1: it wasn't. There were a couple guys that were close, 2166 01:40:00,800 --> 01:40:02,880 Speaker 1: like Ursery I think was close, but he had the 2167 01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:08,400 Speaker 1: most they ran, and then Membu had near the bottom. 2168 01:40:08,479 --> 01:40:10,960 Speaker 1: So when you talk about like apples to apples, with that, 2169 01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:14,240 Speaker 1: I do think that Campbell had the tougher job to do. Yes. 2170 01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:16,960 Speaker 1: The other question here from Aiden, which I think is 2171 01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:19,759 Speaker 1: a good question, is that you hear a lot about 2172 01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:22,759 Speaker 1: Membo and Banks and their upside and how they're younger players, 2173 01:40:23,040 --> 01:40:26,280 Speaker 1: and you don't hear the same for Will Campbell, even 2174 01:40:26,320 --> 01:40:28,479 Speaker 1: though he's a true junior as well and it is 2175 01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:30,559 Speaker 1: coming out with a good athletic profile. I would just 2176 01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:33,240 Speaker 1: say that the upside. People feel like the upside with 2177 01:40:33,240 --> 01:40:35,280 Speaker 1: Campbell is tapped because of the length, like that's what 2178 01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:38,080 Speaker 1: it is, like. They don't think because of history and 2179 01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:40,800 Speaker 1: because of precedent. There isn't a ton of precedent of 2180 01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:44,200 Speaker 1: a thirty three inch t arm tackle turning into an 2181 01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:46,759 Speaker 1: all pro Like there just isn't a lot of that now. 2182 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,479 Speaker 1: If you really want to be sunk in on Campbell. 2183 01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:53,479 Speaker 1: I think the one kind of rebuttal to that argument. 2184 01:40:54,520 --> 01:40:56,559 Speaker 1: They haven't really tried a lot of thirty three inch 2185 01:40:56,680 --> 01:40:59,439 Speaker 1: arm tackles at tackle right. You know, it used to 2186 01:40:59,439 --> 01:41:02,200 Speaker 1: be thirty four, so if you were anything under thirty four, 2187 01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:06,280 Speaker 1: you were automatically kicked inside until Rashawn Slater about five 2188 01:41:06,360 --> 01:41:08,800 Speaker 1: years ago, you know, ten years ago, whatever that was, 2189 01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:13,160 Speaker 1: and he kind of changed the threshold. So now you're 2190 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:17,480 Speaker 1: starting to see Rashawn Slater. The Colts have two tackles 2191 01:41:17,720 --> 01:41:21,400 Speaker 1: that play it under thirty three inches. Smith and Bernard 2192 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:25,880 Speaker 1: Raymond both play left and right tackle with sub thirty 2193 01:41:25,880 --> 01:41:29,120 Speaker 1: three inch arms. Caleb McGarry plays right tackle with sub 2194 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:32,880 Speaker 1: thirty three inch arms. So there's our guys now at 2195 01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:35,000 Speaker 1: the threshold has moved a little bit, that are doing 2196 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:36,920 Speaker 1: it a little bit more. But none of them have 2197 01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:39,240 Speaker 1: been named to All Pro, Pro Bowl or anything like that. 2198 01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:41,880 Speaker 1: Raymond's probably the best player. Yeah, and he's coming the closest. 2199 01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:44,920 Speaker 3: And I well know Schlater was an All bro he 2200 01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:45,840 Speaker 3: at thirty three. 2201 01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:48,640 Speaker 5: At thirty three, Well, Campbell's at thirty three, So I think, no, 2202 01:41:48,760 --> 01:41:50,479 Speaker 5: he is, don't laugh, he is, I'm laughing. 2203 01:41:50,920 --> 01:41:52,080 Speaker 3: I also think. 2204 01:41:52,160 --> 01:41:54,519 Speaker 5: People are waiting to hear about the upside like after 2205 01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:57,320 Speaker 5: last year, right, Marvin Harrison, and probably little too high 2206 01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:59,200 Speaker 5: on Marvin Harrison, but like very good player. 2207 01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:00,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, people are kind of. 2208 01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:02,320 Speaker 5: Waiting to hear about the Marvin Harrison joe all the 2209 01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 5: upside because the Patriots are picking that high. That's not 2210 01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:08,960 Speaker 5: this draft. The players with that upside aren't there. So 2211 01:42:09,720 --> 01:42:13,519 Speaker 5: Campbell's upside maybe isn't that of a typical top five 2212 01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:15,559 Speaker 5: pick or you know, four or five sixty seven in 2213 01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:20,120 Speaker 5: that range, assuming Carter and Hunter gone again, unless you want. 2214 01:42:19,960 --> 01:42:23,360 Speaker 3: To take genty. Nobody has that upside in this draft. 2215 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:24,320 Speaker 1: Nobody does. 2216 01:42:24,680 --> 01:42:28,280 Speaker 5: So it's just again, this class is part of why 2217 01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:31,960 Speaker 5: the bars just lower. Somebody shared earlier this morning was 2218 01:42:31,960 --> 01:42:35,200 Speaker 5: at the twenty twelve NFL draft. The twenty thirteen Yeah, 2219 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:39,360 Speaker 5: we're like this draft could be like that. This draft 2220 01:42:39,400 --> 01:42:41,520 Speaker 5: could very much be like that, where. 2221 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:44,760 Speaker 1: That's DeAndre Hopkins went in like like twenty sixth or 2222 01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 1: something in that draft, which is. 2223 01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:48,759 Speaker 5: Cristy, but I mean at the top, Eric Fisher, Luke Jokol, 2224 01:42:48,800 --> 01:42:52,599 Speaker 5: Dion Jordan, Lane, Johnson, Ezekiel Onsen, Barcavius Mango, Jonathan Cooper, 2225 01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:56,000 Speaker 5: Tevon Austin d Milner, Chance Warmack, I'll keep going DJ Fluker, 2226 01:42:56,080 --> 01:42:58,559 Speaker 5: d J. Hayden right, and those are considered the best 2227 01:42:58,600 --> 01:42:59,360 Speaker 5: players in the draft. 2228 01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:02,320 Speaker 1: Lane Johnson is the only good player right. 2229 01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:06,240 Speaker 5: But like, and it's different because Eric Fisher went first overall, 2230 01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:08,280 Speaker 5: Flip Lane Johnson Eric Fisher right if. 2231 01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:10,439 Speaker 1: Lane Johnson went forward because at the time there was 2232 01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:12,960 Speaker 1: still a stigma against left and right and Lane Johnson 2233 01:43:13,040 --> 01:43:14,800 Speaker 1: was a right tackle, not a left tackle. He was 2234 01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:17,479 Speaker 1: the best tackle in the draft, but he played right tackle, 2235 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:19,800 Speaker 1: and so teams prioritize. 2236 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:22,200 Speaker 5: But again, it's like, if that's the kind of class, 2237 01:43:22,240 --> 01:43:23,920 Speaker 5: if we find out ten years from now that that 2238 01:43:24,120 --> 01:43:25,840 Speaker 5: was the class we were looking at, that level of 2239 01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,880 Speaker 5: talent and they get a guy who starts, they get 2240 01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 5: a guy who's a solid starter for ten years. Yeah, 2241 01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:33,559 Speaker 5: you feel pretty happy about that compared to what's around him. 2242 01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:36,200 Speaker 1: Well, this is I was texting you about this yesterday 2243 01:43:36,200 --> 01:43:39,400 Speaker 1: because I do listen to your station. This is what 2244 01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 1: Felger was saying all day yesterday was that he doesn't 2245 01:43:43,600 --> 01:43:45,400 Speaker 1: think Will Campbell's were at the fourth pick, so he's 2246 01:43:45,439 --> 01:43:47,599 Speaker 1: not just picking him. And I was like, I'm sorry, 2247 01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:50,160 Speaker 1: but you can't create a player in Madden and put 2248 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:52,240 Speaker 1: him into the draft so that you can create a 2249 01:43:52,240 --> 01:43:55,120 Speaker 1: player that has higher upside than Will Campbell. Like, this 2250 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:57,519 Speaker 1: is the this is the group you're picking from. So 2251 01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:00,360 Speaker 1: tell me who is the player that you feel is 2252 01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:05,080 Speaker 1: better than Will Campbell? And I will probably disagree with you, frankly, 2253 01:44:05,360 --> 01:44:08,200 Speaker 1: because the point of the matter is is that all 2254 01:44:08,240 --> 01:44:11,519 Speaker 1: these guys, once you get past Abdul Carter and Travis Hunter, 2255 01:44:11,720 --> 01:44:15,160 Speaker 1: Ash and Genty aside, all these other guys are equal. 2256 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:20,160 Speaker 1: They're all the same player to me, Bembo, Campbell, Graham, Warren, like, 2257 01:44:20,200 --> 01:44:23,639 Speaker 1: I all have them graded in one big cluster. And 2258 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:25,200 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, like we've been saying 2259 01:44:25,240 --> 01:44:28,479 Speaker 1: for four months, Yeah, the position outweighs the rest of 2260 01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:30,960 Speaker 1: it because there's no other way to displace it up, 2261 01:44:31,000 --> 01:44:34,800 Speaker 1: there's no other way to slice the pie. Like, are 2262 01:44:34,840 --> 01:44:38,080 Speaker 1: you gonna take an interior run stuffer in Mason Graham 2263 01:44:38,320 --> 01:44:40,200 Speaker 1: or are you gonna take the position to need at 2264 01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:42,599 Speaker 1: left tackle? You're gonna take the left tackle. Are gonna 2265 01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:44,240 Speaker 1: take the tight end when you have Hunter Henry and 2266 01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:46,719 Speaker 1: Austin Hooper? Or are you gonna take the left tackle? 2267 01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:49,479 Speaker 1: You're gonna take the left tackle. So that's the type 2268 01:44:49,520 --> 01:44:51,760 Speaker 1: of draft that we're in. That's the deal breaker in 2269 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:57,960 Speaker 1: a draft like this. Here's a question from Chris. He asks, Uh, 2270 01:44:58,400 --> 01:45:01,800 Speaker 1: if you're there at thirty eight and Arianti Ursery and 2271 01:45:01,920 --> 01:45:04,680 Speaker 1: Josh Simmons are both on the board, which player are 2272 01:45:04,720 --> 01:45:06,559 Speaker 1: you taking? I know, I know your answer to this. 2273 01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:09,120 Speaker 1: I think, I mean, if the medicals are clean, I'm 2274 01:45:09,120 --> 01:45:11,559 Speaker 1: taking Simmons. But I'm worried about the medicals being clean. 2275 01:45:11,600 --> 01:45:14,040 Speaker 1: All Right, I'm surprised you wouldn't consider Simmons. I think 2276 01:45:14,040 --> 01:45:16,080 Speaker 1: Simmons is a better player than Nursery. The medical stuff 2277 01:45:16,120 --> 01:45:18,280 Speaker 1: just scares me. Yeah. The other thing I wanted to 2278 01:45:18,280 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 1: bring up about Simmons one of the tidbits that I 2279 01:45:21,120 --> 01:45:25,240 Speaker 1: did feel like was worthy of that that was important 2280 01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:28,320 Speaker 1: that Mike Frabele shared in the pre draft press conference. Uh. 2281 01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:30,600 Speaker 1: He was asked, I believe it was by Andrew Callahan, like, 2282 01:45:30,640 --> 01:45:33,880 Speaker 1: what's the thing that you've learned about the draft from 2283 01:45:33,920 --> 01:45:36,880 Speaker 1: your time in Tennessee. And in Tennessee they took a 2284 01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:41,600 Speaker 1: number of injury risk players. Isaiah Wilson was both. He 2285 01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:44,120 Speaker 1: was both an injury risk and a character risk. They 2286 01:45:44,160 --> 01:45:46,919 Speaker 1: took a handful of those types of guys in Tennessee, 2287 01:45:46,960 --> 01:45:50,240 Speaker 1: and Rabel did point out that injury risk players, they 2288 01:45:50,280 --> 01:45:52,719 Speaker 1: got burned by them in Tennessee, and he probably wouldn't 2289 01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:55,160 Speaker 1: do that again. And if that's not Josh Simmons, and 2290 01:45:55,200 --> 01:45:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Right like that, Josh 2291 01:45:57,400 --> 01:46:00,600 Speaker 1: Simon sounded Josh Simmons. Now, the only diferences is that 2292 01:46:00,640 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 1: Josh Emmons went to his alma mater with Ryan Day, 2293 01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:04,960 Speaker 1: who's a good friend of his, so like, maybe they 2294 01:46:04,960 --> 01:46:07,639 Speaker 1: have better intel on the injury than he would normally. 2295 01:46:08,240 --> 01:46:10,839 Speaker 1: But that to me sounded a lot like Josh Simmons, 2296 01:46:10,960 --> 01:46:12,639 Speaker 1: do you want to play a little game. Let's play 2297 01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:14,320 Speaker 1: a little game with one of these emails? Is just 2298 01:46:14,320 --> 01:46:15,880 Speaker 1: one of the ones. We're gonna get myself in trouble again, 2299 01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:18,480 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Okay, So this is from Noah 2300 01:46:18,720 --> 01:46:21,760 Speaker 1: and he basically wants to give me, have us give 2301 01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:24,320 Speaker 1: our best argument for and against a couple of different 2302 01:46:24,320 --> 01:46:28,400 Speaker 1: players that are against consensus, like not guys that people 2303 01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:32,720 Speaker 1: have them taking normally Mason Graham four and against. 2304 01:46:32,479 --> 01:46:37,360 Speaker 5: Born against four like for the Patriots specifically, Yeah four. 2305 01:46:38,760 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 5: You know, you either get Christian Barmore insurance or you're 2306 01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:47,000 Speaker 5: just freaking so athletic upfront with him and Barmore and 2307 01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:49,679 Speaker 5: Milton Williams, Like, there's not a lot of offensive lines 2308 01:46:49,720 --> 01:46:53,479 Speaker 5: that are built to handle that athleticism. The case against 2309 01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:57,280 Speaker 5: is assuming Barmore is healthy and you know, knock On Wood, 2310 01:46:57,320 --> 01:46:59,760 Speaker 5: it's very early, but he's in the building. It's great 2311 01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:02,960 Speaker 5: all that. If he is healthy. He's not coming off 2312 01:47:02,960 --> 01:47:08,400 Speaker 5: the field. Milton Williams isn't coming off the field Keon White. 2313 01:47:08,439 --> 01:47:09,639 Speaker 5: I don't think it's coming off the field. 2314 01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:10,680 Speaker 1: You're using the. 2315 01:47:10,680 --> 01:47:12,320 Speaker 5: Fourth overall pick on a guy that's going to be 2316 01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:15,400 Speaker 5: a rotational player, using on a guy that's probably not 2317 01:47:15,439 --> 01:47:17,800 Speaker 5: gonna be on the field a ton at least initially. 2318 01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:19,599 Speaker 5: They need that first round pick to be an impact 2319 01:47:19,600 --> 01:47:23,240 Speaker 5: player right away, or you're knocking somebody else out of 2320 01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:25,479 Speaker 5: the lineup who has proven more so they can be 2321 01:47:25,479 --> 01:47:26,200 Speaker 5: an impact player. 2322 01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:29,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the four argument is exactly what you said. 2323 01:47:29,360 --> 01:47:32,400 Speaker 1: That is a game wrecking defensive line like Keon White, 2324 01:47:32,840 --> 01:47:36,439 Speaker 1: Milton Williams, Christian Barmore, Mason Graham is a heck of 2325 01:47:36,439 --> 01:47:36,760 Speaker 1: a group. 2326 01:47:36,800 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 5: How much are you gonna be able to put all 2327 01:47:37,960 --> 01:47:39,960 Speaker 5: those like justify putting those four guys on the field 2328 01:47:39,960 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 5: at the same time. 2329 01:47:40,600 --> 01:47:44,240 Speaker 1: Yep, that's fair. It could go one of two ways. Yeah, 2330 01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:47,400 Speaker 1: it's either the Philadelphia Eagles, where you just have waves 2331 01:47:47,439 --> 01:47:49,840 Speaker 1: of talent on the defensive line to send at people, 2332 01:47:50,240 --> 01:47:53,640 Speaker 1: or it's the Washington football team circa you know, twenty 2333 01:47:53,720 --> 01:47:55,840 Speaker 1: nineteen where they use like a bunch of first round 2334 01:47:55,880 --> 01:47:59,439 Speaker 1: picks on Alabama defensive lineman and all the only strength 2335 01:47:59,439 --> 01:48:01,880 Speaker 1: of their ross was their defensive line and they stunk 2336 01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:04,720 Speaker 1: everywhere else. Right, So those are the four and those 2337 01:48:04,760 --> 01:48:07,920 Speaker 1: are the against you're really putting all your eggs, and 2338 01:48:08,000 --> 01:48:11,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna be this dominant upfront team on defense and 2339 01:48:11,200 --> 01:48:12,960 Speaker 1: we're just not gonna give up any points in a. 2340 01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:15,200 Speaker 5: Draft that's so good at defensive tackle. I think you 2341 01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:17,519 Speaker 5: can if you want to recreate what the Eagles had, 2342 01:48:17,600 --> 01:48:20,160 Speaker 5: or even you go is I somebody sent me the 2343 01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:22,800 Speaker 5: because the thing about, well, do the Giants real they 2344 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 5: want to add Noal Carter because they have all these 2345 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:26,120 Speaker 5: pass rushers. You know, somebody like, yeah, I missed the 2346 01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:28,519 Speaker 5: NASCAR defense. Yeah, Like, if you want to recreate that, 2347 01:48:28,760 --> 01:48:30,160 Speaker 5: I think you can get guys later in the draft 2348 01:48:30,160 --> 01:48:31,639 Speaker 5: to do that. You don't have to do that at four. 2349 01:48:32,160 --> 01:48:34,080 Speaker 1: This is an interesting one. It's not gonna happen, but 2350 01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:36,559 Speaker 1: it's just for the sake of the exercise for or 2351 01:48:36,600 --> 01:48:40,600 Speaker 1: against Jahati Baron Baron from Texas. 2352 01:48:41,200 --> 01:48:44,680 Speaker 5: I mean it's kind of like Mason Graham, where like, 2353 01:48:46,320 --> 01:48:48,320 Speaker 5: if you have Gonzalez and Carlton Davis on the outside, 2354 01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:51,200 Speaker 5: I think Baron's can play the slot. Right, If you 2355 01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:53,160 Speaker 5: have those two on the outside and Jaday Baron in 2356 01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:56,240 Speaker 5: the slot. Yeah, if Baron is the player people think 2357 01:48:56,240 --> 01:48:58,519 Speaker 5: he is, that might be the best cornerback trio in 2358 01:48:58,560 --> 01:48:59,040 Speaker 5: the league. 2359 01:48:59,280 --> 01:49:00,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2360 01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:03,400 Speaker 5: Do you really want to allocate all your resources that 2361 01:49:03,560 --> 01:49:05,679 Speaker 5: heavily to that one position? 2362 01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:07,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? And I shouldn't mention this is obviously would be 2363 01:49:07,720 --> 01:49:09,240 Speaker 1: in a trade. That be a trade now, Yeah, to 2364 01:49:09,280 --> 01:49:12,800 Speaker 1: get Baron, your argument for and against her are solid. Again, four, 2365 01:49:13,600 --> 01:49:16,559 Speaker 1: you have a nickel corner to complete the secondary. Yeah, 2366 01:49:16,640 --> 01:49:21,240 Speaker 1: that is a complete group with Gonzalez, Carlton Davis and Baron. 2367 01:49:21,640 --> 01:49:23,920 Speaker 1: Barn reminds me a ton of Brian Branch. I think 2368 01:49:23,920 --> 01:49:25,479 Speaker 1: he can play the nickel. I can think he can 2369 01:49:25,520 --> 01:49:30,200 Speaker 1: play a little bit of safety, physical, feisty, corner ballhowker 2370 01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, all around the football a ton That would 2371 01:49:33,240 --> 01:49:36,400 Speaker 1: be a great, great group against Again, it's same thing, 2372 01:49:36,439 --> 01:49:38,640 Speaker 1: as Mason Graham, you just had a lot of resources 2373 01:49:38,640 --> 01:49:40,640 Speaker 1: sunk in the corner. You might not give up a 2374 01:49:40,680 --> 01:49:42,320 Speaker 1: completion on defense, but you're not gonna be able to 2375 01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:44,639 Speaker 1: score on offense either, so it's not gonna matter. Yeah, 2376 01:49:44,840 --> 01:49:47,559 Speaker 1: that's the against all right, last one here, which is 2377 01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:51,240 Speaker 1: interesting but again probably not gonna happen. But fun Jalen 2378 01:49:51,320 --> 01:49:58,200 Speaker 1: Milroe at thirty eight four and against. I can't really 2379 01:49:58,200 --> 01:50:00,639 Speaker 1: make a case for that. I can't either, And people 2380 01:50:00,640 --> 01:50:02,320 Speaker 1: are gonna say, well, he'd be a good wide receiver. 2381 01:50:02,479 --> 01:50:04,840 Speaker 5: No, he's gonna get chance play quarterback. Yeah, and I 2382 01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:07,000 Speaker 5: think he has a chance to to, you know, make 2383 01:50:07,040 --> 01:50:07,679 Speaker 5: plays there. 2384 01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:10,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. 2385 01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:12,559 Speaker 5: At the end of camp, somebody's quarterback gets hurt, you 2386 01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:15,120 Speaker 5: maybe flip them, like if you take him at thirty eight. 2387 01:50:15,479 --> 01:50:17,439 Speaker 5: Maybe somebody gets desperate for a quarterback and gives you 2388 01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:19,280 Speaker 5: a first round pick next year because they really need one. 2389 01:50:19,400 --> 01:50:21,840 Speaker 1: I'm really reaching here. No, I don't have one. 2390 01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:22,639 Speaker 3: That's a tough one. 2391 01:50:22,760 --> 01:50:24,960 Speaker 1: I do. I did like the exercise, but that was 2392 01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:26,920 Speaker 1: the one I couldn't. I couldn't. It's a thinker. I 2393 01:50:26,960 --> 01:50:31,000 Speaker 1: almost didn't even say it. I don't have before obviously 2394 01:50:31,120 --> 01:50:33,760 Speaker 1: obvious again, sir obvious. So you have Drake May and 2395 01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:37,000 Speaker 1: you don't need another quarterback. It's the Madden move where. 2396 01:50:38,439 --> 01:50:41,120 Speaker 5: The only good enfranchise, the only good player in the draft, 2397 01:50:41,200 --> 01:50:42,759 Speaker 5: or the best player in the draft is a position 2398 01:50:42,800 --> 01:50:45,519 Speaker 5: you already have loaded, but you draft him because you 2399 01:50:45,520 --> 01:50:48,519 Speaker 5: can just trade him immediately after the draft. But that's 2400 01:50:48,560 --> 01:50:51,080 Speaker 5: not how the real world works. Here's a case for Madden, 2401 01:50:51,120 --> 01:50:51,719 Speaker 5: but not in really. 2402 01:50:51,800 --> 01:50:53,880 Speaker 1: A couple more emails, then we'll take these last calls 2403 01:50:53,880 --> 01:50:56,960 Speaker 1: and we'll wrap it up. So Ashton, Canada rites in 2404 01:50:57,000 --> 01:51:00,599 Speaker 1: with two prospects he's surprised that we don't hear more 2405 01:51:00,640 --> 01:51:03,400 Speaker 1: about related to the Patriots. One is Walter Nolan, the 2406 01:51:03,640 --> 01:51:06,639 Speaker 1: three technique from Ole, miss The other one is one 2407 01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:10,639 Speaker 1: of our favorites, Jihad Campbell from Alabama. So Walter Nolan 2408 01:51:12,680 --> 01:51:15,040 Speaker 1: tapes a little streaky on Walter Nolan, but he's a 2409 01:51:15,040 --> 01:51:18,240 Speaker 1: good player, and I think that he's gonna be a 2410 01:51:18,280 --> 01:51:20,280 Speaker 1: good player in the pros if a team can get 2411 01:51:20,280 --> 01:51:24,320 Speaker 1: his motor on, turn that switch on permanently and not 2412 01:51:24,439 --> 01:51:26,720 Speaker 1: let it go right, which I thought at times it 2413 01:51:26,760 --> 01:51:30,519 Speaker 1: did watching his tape. But a penetrating three technique, it's 2414 01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,320 Speaker 1: the same thing with Mason Graham, Like, how many more 2415 01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:37,720 Speaker 1: interior penetrating defensive lineman can you possibly have on one roster? Right? 2416 01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:40,200 Speaker 1: You have Milton Williams. You think you're gonna have Christian 2417 01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:43,320 Speaker 1: Barr Moore, you have Keon White, Like, they're all kind 2418 01:51:43,360 --> 01:51:46,599 Speaker 1: of the same type of player, same type of position overlap. Yeah, 2419 01:51:46,720 --> 01:51:49,200 Speaker 1: it just is the same kind of argument. Giodd Campbell 2420 01:51:49,280 --> 01:51:52,439 Speaker 1: is an interesting one. He has the shoulder issue. He 2421 01:51:52,840 --> 01:51:57,360 Speaker 1: had surgery on his shoulder recently, like really recently, right 2422 01:51:57,400 --> 01:52:00,439 Speaker 1: after the combine, I want to say, and there is 2423 01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:02,200 Speaker 1: some doubt that he'll be ready to go to start 2424 01:52:02,200 --> 01:52:04,880 Speaker 1: the season. He could start the year on PUP. If 2425 01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:06,720 Speaker 1: he does start the year on pp and people have 2426 01:52:07,280 --> 01:52:09,720 Speaker 1: issues with the shoulder, Like, I see they're at thirty eight, 2427 01:52:09,840 --> 01:52:12,439 Speaker 1: and do you start to entertain g Hot Campbe because 2428 01:52:12,439 --> 01:52:14,240 Speaker 1: I think he's a first rounder all day. Yeah, but 2429 01:52:14,320 --> 01:52:15,519 Speaker 1: the injury might push him down. 2430 01:52:15,800 --> 01:52:17,640 Speaker 5: See that's where more comfortable taking the risks with an 2431 01:52:17,680 --> 01:52:19,400 Speaker 5: injury player. It's also a shoulder, it's not like a 2432 01:52:19,479 --> 01:52:22,120 Speaker 5: knee or an ankle. Right, Yeah, I like get Campbell. 2433 01:52:22,240 --> 01:52:22,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2434 01:52:22,439 --> 01:52:24,160 Speaker 5: I think the reason we haven't talked and I really 2435 01:52:24,160 --> 01:52:26,360 Speaker 5: like Walter Nolan. I think did Trager have him go 2436 01:52:26,439 --> 01:52:27,240 Speaker 5: in like eleven or twelve. 2437 01:52:27,320 --> 01:52:29,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's gonna go high this morning. He's Gonnai people 2438 01:52:30,120 --> 01:52:30,880 Speaker 1: team sniffing around. 2439 01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,680 Speaker 5: That's the guy Trags keeps texting me about for Cincinnati. 2440 01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:38,599 Speaker 5: Walter Nolan. Yeah, we haven't talked about him, just because 2441 01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:42,040 Speaker 5: he's in between. Like it'd be a trade way down 2442 01:52:42,160 --> 01:52:45,200 Speaker 5: or a trade way up. If Campbell falls, I'd probably 2443 01:52:45,200 --> 01:52:47,519 Speaker 5: take him. I take the risk on the injury him. 2444 01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:49,840 Speaker 5: Robert Splane, those guys are gonna crack skulls. There a 2445 01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:52,720 Speaker 5: second level that'd be a really fun group. That's a 2446 01:52:52,760 --> 01:52:54,920 Speaker 5: case where as much as we've heart we've harped on 2447 01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:58,000 Speaker 5: drafting for knee throughout this process, there are certain guys 2448 01:52:58,040 --> 01:53:00,840 Speaker 5: that are just so good, especially later on, Like if 2449 01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:02,760 Speaker 5: they don't feel like they if they get the tackle 2450 01:53:02,880 --> 01:53:05,439 Speaker 5: for they don't feel like they're pressed to get a receiver. Yeah, 2451 01:53:05,479 --> 01:53:07,720 Speaker 5: Gihad Cambc's are a really good football Player's nothing wrong 2452 01:53:07,720 --> 01:53:08,720 Speaker 5: with adding a guy like that. 2453 01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:11,559 Speaker 1: I'd be really I'm interested to see. I think there's 2454 01:53:11,600 --> 01:53:14,720 Speaker 1: an argument, and I'm not necessarily saying I'm making it, 2455 01:53:14,760 --> 01:53:18,679 Speaker 1: but there is an argument Jalen Walker versus Gihod Campbell, 2456 01:53:18,680 --> 01:53:20,479 Speaker 1: Like I think that's maybe a little bit closer than 2457 01:53:20,479 --> 01:53:21,200 Speaker 1: some people make it out. 2458 01:53:21,400 --> 01:53:24,000 Speaker 5: I think Walker is the higher ceiling and that's why 2459 01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:26,839 Speaker 5: he's getting more looks. But like because he's a tweener 2460 01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:29,600 Speaker 5: and there's more development there, Giodd Campbell's gonna come in 2461 01:53:29,680 --> 01:53:31,160 Speaker 5: right away and be a damn good linebacker. 2462 01:53:31,240 --> 01:53:33,120 Speaker 1: I just think Giodd Campbell's got a little bit more 2463 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:35,160 Speaker 1: size and a little bit more length. Like I think 2464 01:53:35,200 --> 01:53:38,200 Speaker 1: his edge rushing tape might actually be better than Jalen Walker. 2465 01:53:38,280 --> 01:53:41,920 Speaker 1: He reminds me of like Levonte David. I could see that. Yeah, yeah, 2466 01:53:42,040 --> 01:53:43,559 Speaker 1: I think it's really. 2467 01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:45,840 Speaker 5: His rushing tape is good. Which stands out to me 2468 01:53:45,920 --> 01:53:49,560 Speaker 5: is he's such a good coverage linebacker. Yeah, like in 2469 01:53:50,040 --> 01:53:52,840 Speaker 5: space and there are not, you know, not every not 2470 01:53:52,840 --> 01:53:54,519 Speaker 5: a lot of Fred Warners flowing around the league, and 2471 01:53:54,560 --> 01:53:57,479 Speaker 5: that maybe a little lofty of a camp but on 2472 01:53:57,600 --> 01:54:01,879 Speaker 5: my comp yeah, Tremaine Edmonds, Oh yeah, okay. 2473 01:54:01,800 --> 01:54:05,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, really athletic. He's got that like soccer goalie thing 2474 01:54:05,720 --> 01:54:07,439 Speaker 1: going on, where like you got to throw around him 2475 01:54:07,600 --> 01:54:10,160 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field of the great wingspan. Uh, 2476 01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:15,680 Speaker 1: extremely good in space, smart coverage, can spy quarterbacks. Yeah, 2477 01:54:15,720 --> 01:54:18,880 Speaker 1: good football player. All right, Pedro in Brazil. It's a 2478 01:54:18,880 --> 01:54:21,160 Speaker 1: big market for US now these days, alex So shout 2479 01:54:21,160 --> 01:54:24,519 Speaker 1: out to Brazil. Uh, he said, outside of the first round, 2480 01:54:25,320 --> 01:54:27,320 Speaker 1: who would you put your money on that? At the 2481 01:54:27,400 --> 01:54:30,479 Speaker 1: end of the draft, this player will be a Patriot. 2482 01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:34,160 Speaker 1: This is the Jack Sawyer question. I'm just gonna say it. 2483 01:54:35,000 --> 01:54:36,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the obviously. Now I'm gonna go. 2484 01:54:36,640 --> 01:54:39,000 Speaker 5: Look, the only guy so I try not to double 2485 01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:41,360 Speaker 5: up in mock drafts the last couple of years, I 2486 01:54:41,400 --> 01:54:43,320 Speaker 5: have in the first round because they're picking so high 2487 01:54:43,360 --> 01:54:46,080 Speaker 5: with Drake May and Will Campbell. This year, there's only 2488 01:54:46,120 --> 01:54:47,840 Speaker 5: one other guy Wh've doubled up on in the last 2489 01:54:47,840 --> 01:54:50,040 Speaker 5: two years, Yeah, in mock drafts. 2490 01:54:50,200 --> 01:54:52,280 Speaker 1: And that is Drew Kendall. Yeah, so I think I 2491 01:54:52,360 --> 01:54:54,200 Speaker 1: kind of have to say Drew Kendall. Yeah, that's a 2492 01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:56,120 Speaker 1: good one. Jacksaw is a good one to Jack Sawyer. 2493 01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:59,800 Speaker 1: Drew Kendo obviously, big oz Ozzi Trapilo from Boston College. 2494 01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:02,840 Speaker 5: So I don't think so because he's a right tackle. No, 2495 01:55:03,440 --> 01:55:05,840 Speaker 5: not because I don't think they like him. I think 2496 01:55:05,880 --> 01:55:08,040 Speaker 5: he's gonna go kind of higher than people expect. Yeah, 2497 01:55:08,080 --> 01:55:09,920 Speaker 5: and I don't know that he's gonna go where they 2498 01:55:09,920 --> 01:55:12,840 Speaker 5: would take him. He might go between thirty eight and sixty. 2499 01:55:12,920 --> 01:55:14,480 Speaker 5: They're not gonna take him at thirty eight, it's too 2500 01:55:14,560 --> 01:55:17,560 Speaker 5: I he might go before sixty nine and they might 2501 01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:21,040 Speaker 5: not have a chance to get him. So he's another 2502 01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:23,480 Speaker 5: donut guy. I think they'd love to take him. 2503 01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:23,960 Speaker 1: I do. 2504 01:55:24,400 --> 01:55:26,400 Speaker 5: I think he's their kind of guy. If it's profile. 2505 01:55:26,440 --> 01:55:28,720 Speaker 5: He's at BC with Moron and all that. Yeah, and 2506 01:55:28,760 --> 01:55:30,160 Speaker 5: he would be a good pick if they If you 2507 01:55:30,200 --> 01:55:33,720 Speaker 5: fall sixty nine, yeah, I wonder if somebody else is 2508 01:55:33,720 --> 01:55:34,600 Speaker 5: going to ruin that for them. 2509 01:55:34,920 --> 01:55:36,880 Speaker 1: Fair enough? All right, let's take these last two calls, 2510 01:55:36,920 --> 01:55:38,160 Speaker 1: and then we got to wrap it up.

But if they, if they 2537 01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:44,600 Speaker 5: hadn't signed Carlton Davis, you guys would have been sick 2538 01:56:44,720 --> 01:56:46,200 Speaker 5: of hearing me talk about Darian Porter. 2539 01:56:46,400 --> 01:56:48,000 Speaker 1: You know how ages I am. 2540 01:56:48,320 --> 01:56:49,480 Speaker 3: He's gonna be twenty four year old. 2541 01:56:49,560 --> 01:56:52,440 Speaker 1: Okay, reminds me of Quall and a lot though a 2542 01:56:52,440 --> 01:56:54,760 Speaker 1: little bit of trek walling in his game. How long 2543 01:56:54,840 --> 01:56:56,560 Speaker 1: it took that guy to care to matter? 2544 01:56:56,640 --> 01:56:56,840 Speaker 7: Though? 2545 01:56:57,120 --> 01:57:01,320 Speaker 1: Like one, no, no, Darian, Like this is the only 2546 01:57:01,400 --> 01:57:03,520 Speaker 1: year that he started full time in Iowa. That's true. 2547 01:57:03,600 --> 01:57:07,000 Speaker 1: Like he he literally he's the definition of like I mean, 2548 01:57:07,040 --> 01:57:09,320 Speaker 1: did block three punts while these planets I am a 2549 01:57:09,320 --> 01:57:11,520 Speaker 1: man amongst boys, like I am twenty four years old 2550 01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:14,640 Speaker 1: playing against nineteen year olds, and they shows. That's the 2551 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:17,040 Speaker 1: only thing I'd worry about. With Darien Porter, I didn't. 2552 01:57:17,080 --> 01:57:18,840 Speaker 1: He also didn't play a ton of man to man, 2553 01:57:18,720 --> 01:57:21,120 Speaker 1: and I at Iowa. He's more of like a zone corner. Yeah, 2554 01:57:21,120 --> 01:57:21,920 Speaker 1: but really really good. 2555 01:57:22,040 --> 01:57:23,440 Speaker 3: He's gonna go to Vegas and be nasty. 2556 01:57:23,520 --> 01:57:27,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, a good good comp to Grequelle. Craig is in 2557 01:57:28,680 --> 01:57:31,520 Speaker 1: Ohio but originally from Providence. What's up, Craig? 2558 01:57:32,640 --> 01:57:33,360 Speaker 10: Hey, how you doing? 2559 01:57:33,440 --> 01:57:33,680 Speaker 1: Hey? 2560 01:57:35,120 --> 01:57:35,440 Speaker 10: All right? 2561 01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:39,840 Speaker 6: So I have twoth eggs that quit. First thing is 2562 01:57:39,840 --> 01:57:42,440 Speaker 6: is I'll be in from Rhode isowad not having a 2563 01:57:42,520 --> 01:57:45,240 Speaker 6: college man living out here in Ohio. That's all I 2564 01:57:45,280 --> 01:57:45,959 Speaker 6: hear about. 2565 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:47,080 Speaker 8: All day long, and it's annoying. 2566 01:57:48,800 --> 01:57:55,000 Speaker 6: Nomber two. I hear everybody's case against Will Campbell. But 2567 01:57:55,040 --> 01:57:58,040 Speaker 6: my thing I always come back to is I always 2568 01:57:58,040 --> 01:58:00,280 Speaker 6: say that he only gave up four stacks. So what 2569 01:58:00,360 --> 01:58:02,360 Speaker 6: is the case for him being a guard if he's 2570 01:58:02,400 --> 01:58:03,720 Speaker 6: only given up four sacks? 2571 01:58:05,000 --> 01:58:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? Thanks for the call, Craig. I think this in general, 2572 01:58:08,120 --> 01:58:09,960 Speaker 1: and this is not a Will Campbell take. This is 2573 01:58:10,000 --> 01:58:16,080 Speaker 1: a general take. I don't really believe that the production base, 2574 01:58:16,160 --> 01:58:19,840 Speaker 1: like the charting metrics for college tackles, I don't think 2575 01:58:19,840 --> 01:58:22,720 Speaker 1: that that holds much weight going to the NFL because 2576 01:58:22,760 --> 01:58:25,600 Speaker 1: so much of that is fluffed up by screens and 2577 01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:28,560 Speaker 1: RPOs and quick game throws and all this kind of 2578 01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:31,720 Speaker 1: stuff that doesn't necessarily happen at the same volume as 2579 01:58:31,720 --> 01:58:35,080 Speaker 1: the at the NFL level. Like armand Membu gave up 2580 01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:38,960 Speaker 1: eight pressures the entire season last year at Missouri eight 2581 01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:43,280 Speaker 1: all hurries, no sacks, no quarterback hits. But how many 2582 01:58:43,440 --> 01:58:48,720 Speaker 1: of those dropbacks were screens? How many of those dropbacks 2583 01:58:48,720 --> 01:58:52,400 Speaker 1: were bootlegs? How many of those dropbacks were RPOs? Right, 2584 01:58:52,480 --> 01:58:56,160 Speaker 1: So a lot of those metrics are not exactly We 2585 01:58:56,240 --> 01:58:59,360 Speaker 1: don't see a ton of that being predictive like that. 2586 01:58:59,440 --> 01:59:02,640 Speaker 1: That is, this guy gave up x amount of saxon college, 2587 01:59:02,720 --> 01:59:05,440 Speaker 1: so he's going to be a good pro. The data 2588 01:59:05,480 --> 01:59:07,920 Speaker 1: would tell you that it's not necessarily predictive like that, 2589 01:59:08,280 --> 01:59:09,960 Speaker 1: So you just have to keep that stuff in mind. 2590 01:59:10,240 --> 01:59:13,920 Speaker 1: All right, last call here, Cuba is in Atlanta. What's up, Cuba? 2591 01:59:15,720 --> 01:59:19,600 Speaker 13: Hey, I wanted to act about jalend. Nobody heres asked 2592 01:59:19,640 --> 01:59:21,840 Speaker 13: the vote or said what kind of gets shorter? In 2593 01:59:21,920 --> 01:59:25,280 Speaker 13: the ready has so we'll that affect him. We will 2594 01:59:25,320 --> 01:59:27,200 Speaker 13: go to affect a steam on what they do tomorrow. 2595 01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:31,080 Speaker 1: I think that all right, Thanks for the call, so 2596 01:59:31,240 --> 01:59:34,640 Speaker 1: Jalen Polk. I think we're all in the boat, at 2597 01:59:34,720 --> 01:59:39,960 Speaker 1: least me personally. I guess I should say of expecting 2598 01:59:39,960 --> 01:59:42,840 Speaker 1: the worst and hoping for the best, Like I hope 2599 01:59:42,880 --> 01:59:46,120 Speaker 1: that he can that last year was you know, an aberration, 2600 01:59:46,240 --> 01:59:49,040 Speaker 1: and he breaks out this year, and I hope that 2601 01:59:49,120 --> 01:59:52,720 Speaker 1: it works out. I do. Uh. There's not a lot 2602 01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:57,840 Speaker 1: of precedent for a receiver being really uh, non contributor 2603 01:59:57,920 --> 02:00:00,720 Speaker 1: as a rookie and then suddenly block coming into a 2604 02:00:00,720 --> 02:00:04,000 Speaker 1: really productive player. There just isn't there's guys that have 2605 02:00:04,120 --> 02:00:06,800 Speaker 1: done it. You know, DeVante Adams is always kind of 2606 02:00:06,840 --> 02:00:09,960 Speaker 1: the poster child for this. But DeVante Adams put up 2607 02:00:10,000 --> 02:00:13,120 Speaker 1: some numbers as a rookie, like he had some production. 2608 02:00:13,920 --> 02:00:16,280 Speaker 1: You hear a lot about like the five hundred yard club, 2609 02:00:16,320 --> 02:00:18,040 Speaker 1: Like if you hit five hundred yards as a rookie, 2610 02:00:18,080 --> 02:00:20,320 Speaker 1: you're on your way to being a really good NFL player. 2611 02:00:20,880 --> 02:00:22,720 Speaker 1: There's just not a ton of president for guys that 2612 02:00:22,800 --> 02:00:25,760 Speaker 1: have caught as few passes as Jalen Polk going on 2613 02:00:25,880 --> 02:00:29,080 Speaker 1: to be productive NFL players. I think at this point 2614 02:00:29,320 --> 02:00:32,440 Speaker 1: you can safely say Jalen Polk's ceiling is probably like 2615 02:00:32,560 --> 02:00:33,640 Speaker 1: on an NFL roster. 2616 02:00:33,880 --> 02:00:35,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, look, I don't think they need a 2617 02:00:36,040 --> 02:00:37,680 Speaker 5: rush to move on from them. Bring him into camp, 2618 02:00:37,720 --> 02:00:39,680 Speaker 5: see where he's at. But yeah, I don't think he 2619 02:00:39,720 --> 02:00:41,879 Speaker 5: necessarily cement many plans or anything. 2620 02:00:42,040 --> 02:00:44,680 Speaker 1: Yep, absolutely, all right, that does it for today's show. 2621 02:00:44,960 --> 02:00:46,760 Speaker 1: I wish we could get to all these emails, but 2622 02:00:46,800 --> 02:00:48,640 Speaker 1: we'd be here for another hour and we just can't 2623 02:00:48,680 --> 02:00:51,640 Speaker 1: swing that. So I apologize to all the emailers that 2624 02:00:51,720 --> 02:00:54,040 Speaker 1: emailed in and we weren't able to get to you. 2625 02:00:54,120 --> 02:00:57,720 Speaker 1: But we'll be back next week and we'll recap the draft. 2626 02:00:57,720 --> 02:00:59,880 Speaker 1: It will be a big show. We'll go pick bike 2627 02:01:00,080 --> 02:01:03,280 Speaker 1: pick like we always do and recap the draft one 2628 02:01:03,320 --> 02:01:07,120 Speaker 1: at a time, and hopefully there'll be plenty of discussion 2629 02:01:07,200 --> 02:01:09,800 Speaker 1: about what the Patriots do over the next couple of 2630 02:01:09,880 --> 02:01:13,800 Speaker 1: days for us next week. But until next time, do 2631 02:01:13,800 --> 02:01:15,480 Speaker 1: you have to shout out our friends at bud Light. 2632 02:01:15,560 --> 02:01:18,040 Speaker 1: It's easy to drink, easy to enjoy. Bud Light, the 2633 02:01:18,040 --> 02:01:20,640 Speaker 1: official beer sponsor of the New England Patriots. Alex and 2634 02:01:20,680 --> 02:01:22,200 Speaker 1: I are going to need a bud light on Sunday. 2635 02:01:22,240 --> 02:01:25,880 Speaker 1: I think maybe ten bud lights on Sunday. All right, guys, 2636 02:01:25,880 --> 02:01:27,160 Speaker 1: we'll see you next week. Enjoy the Draft. 2637 02:01:27,280 --> 02:01:27,880 Speaker 3: Joy the Draft. 2638 02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:33,000 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Fred.
