00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: What's happening everybody. Welcome into Monday edition of Texans All Access.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Harris, Football Analyst, sideline reporter. And

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: if I sound weary, it is because I am. It's

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: Draft week. It's also moving week, so there's a million

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: things going on in the Harris household, but we are

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: getting it done on a money got a really fun

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: show because one of my buddies are going to join

8
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: us from Buffalo. Buffalo Bills sideline reporter Salth Capacco, really

9
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,159
Speaker 1: good friend of mine. Got a chance to catch up

10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: with Mark at the owners meetings as well, so I'm

11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: a chestising for you know, cheating on me in some way,

12
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: shape or form. But we got a lot to catch

13
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: up with Sal. We go back to that visual playoff

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,639
Speaker 1: around game, which was incredible, So we talked about that,

15
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: the Bills, what they're thinking about doing in the draft,

16
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: and then taking a look at the AFC. The AFC

17
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: is a pritz, a monster man, and I would probably

18
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: say I wouldn't probably say I'd tell Sal this. I

19
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: told him this that I thought the Bills are that

20
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: I'm one team in the AFC, and I think the

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: Chiefs are there. But they've had so many changes, it's

22
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see how that group ends up adjusting.

23
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: But South Capaccho is gonna join me. Then we're gonna

24
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: have our into lab and on in the Lab this week.

25
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: Actually we may have one on Wednesday too. We'll see

26
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: how that goes. But on this in the Lab, Drew

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: and I did in all Time Texans Draft, where the

28
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: Texans are drafting three thirteen thirty seven sixty eight eighty

29
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: one O seven eight, And we'll stop there because the

30
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: Texans added a pick. So let's get a little bit

31
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: of news, because there's two news items, one Texans related

32
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: and one that is Texans adjacent. But I love it

33
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: and i'll get I'll tell you what that is in

34
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: just a second. But the Texans made a deal today

35
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: with the New England Patriots. Shocked face. Well, here it is.

36
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: Here's the deal. The Texans were from one O eight

37
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: to one eighty three, so they had a big gap.

38
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: They not have a fifth rounder. Well now they do.

39
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: They have the Patriots fifth rounder one seventy and in turn,

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 1: the Texans give up one eighty three and two forty

41
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: five one eighty three to two forty five going to

42
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: New England. The Texans then go to pick one seventy

43
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: so re seven three thirteen, thirty seven, sixty eight eighty

44
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: one oh seven, one oh eight. Now one seventy and

45
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 1: two oh five. That's where the draft at this point

46
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: will end for the Texans, and then they can get

47
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: working one undrafted free agents, and the Patriots pick up

48
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: one Day three, two forty five. So the Texans still

49
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 1: have two six round picks I think. I'm mean, yeah,

50
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 1: two six round picks, but they gave up one of

51
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: those six, and they gave up pick two forty five,

52
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: one of the seven, so they keep their higher seventh,

53
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: so they're gonna I'm sorry, they give up their seventh,

54
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: but they keep two sixth and my math is correct

55
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: on that, so they now have a fifth and two

56
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: six as opposed to three six and a seventh. I'll

57
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: let you do the math on that, but either way,

58
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 1: the Texans make a deal with the New England Patriots.

59
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: Now the one I'm really excited about, I'm going wait

60
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: a second, it's a draft archer, say yeah, yeah, yeah,

61
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm excited, but it's a it's a fifth for a

62
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: sixth and seveth. Okay, cool, if three gets moved, thirteen

63
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: gets moved. I'm going to yeah, then we'll start talking

64
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: in length. But this one I am pomped about. My

65
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:36,279
Speaker 1: guys from Manchester City are coming to Houston July twentieth.

66
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: They're taking on Club America and that is going to

67
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: be Copa de Lone Star July twentieth, Manchester City coming here.

68
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: It's Manchester City's first international friendly in over two calendar

69
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: years due to COVID Now. They were back here taking

70
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,320

71

Speaker 1: the guys up close again. Didn't get a chance to

74
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 1: see them in twenty seventeen, but really became a fan

75
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: in eighteen and nineteen and they won a couple of

76
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: Premier Leagues. Since they had a draw with Liverpool the

00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: like I promised, but I got to take some quick

112
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: dirt and uh, Mark was amazing and he loved he wanted.

113
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: He's like, we got to have dessert, man. So you know,

114
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: we struck up a relationships, like just like you and

115
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: I have and and andre Man andre Ware. It was great.

116
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 1: I still tell my friends, I can't believe I was

117
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: driving around Buffalo, New York and andre Ware. It is

118
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: just like in my passenger tea, I'm just like hanging

119
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: out right. It's like surreal to think about stuff like that.

120
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: But anyway, um, it was great. Mark was awesome. At

121
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: the owners meetings, we happen to be doing our radio

122
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: shows next to each other, so we kind of helped

123
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: each other out a little bit there, and the weather's

124
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: breaking here in Buffalo. It's good. Um, it's you know,

125
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: baseball season now, it's that time of year. It's draft seasons.

126
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: So we're already locked and loaded and schedules coming out soon.

127
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 1: So a lot of things going on. Man, I'm excited. Okay,

128
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: I got a little something for your Yankees later on

129
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: and all that and open the envelope. But that that'll

130
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: that'll be for a little bit later because I know,

131
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: I know my Houston fans want to ask you how

132
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: Garrett Cole's doing, which has been a pretty interesting subject

133
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 1: here in Houston. But so I want to I want

134
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 1: to rewind a little bit. I mean, you and I

135
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: I had a chance to catch up at various points,

136
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: and I texted you probably twenty four to thirty six

137
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: hours after the divisional playoff lost to Kansas City. Now

138
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: you and I both share in that we both had

139
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: teams that loss the divisional playoff round in Kansas City

140
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: under completely and totally different circumstances. But for people watching

141
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: at home, as everybody's tweeting and talking about this game,

142
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: they're saying, this is the best playoff game this is

143
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: the greatest game we've ever seen in NFL history. You

144
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: obviously were there on the sidelines, and I know it

145
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: was a gut punch at the end, not getting the W.

146
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: But while that game is going on, what are you

147
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: thinking on the sidelines watching the Bills and Chiefs in

148
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: that game? Heavyweight fight man, unbelievable, John, I mean, Mahomes

149
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: and Alan and Ni. Look at Josh Allen. Startom is

150
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: off the charts now. Everybody wants a piece of when

151
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: he's gonna be on this match with Tom Brady, Mahomes

152
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: and Rogers. He's on every podcast and videocast going out

153
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl. And I think that loss in

154
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: Kansas City, as much as it hurt, did more for

155
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: his career than any win he's ever had in the

156
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: fell because of how he can continue to battle and

157
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: what he did and Gabe Davis's game. But let me

158
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: just walk you through what happened at the end of

159
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: the game. As you know, could you do this, We

160
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: position ourselves at the right spot for certain moments they're

161
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: coming down the field. There's twenty something seconds left. He

162
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: throws a touchdown to gab Davis thirteen seconds left and

163
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: I literally went, oh my god, like I just couldn't

164
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: believe it. I turned there's two younger like chief staff

165
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 1: members who just kind of did a face palm, like, oh,

166
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: they figured the game's over. Now you go into what

167
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: mode do we go in? We have to Yeah, we're

168
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: caught up in the moment. We got to do our

169
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: job now. So I'm thinking, who am I interviewing after

170
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: the game? I get an on field interview after every

171
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: Bill's win. I'm thinking, I gotta interview someone. I can't

172
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: get Josh. He's gonna go to CBS. I know that.

173
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: So Tracy Wilson's there, and so is Jay Feely. They're

174
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 1: doing the same thing as me. Who are they getting?

175
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,599
Speaker 1: We're all scrambling around and I'm like, who are you

176
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: guys getting? What's going on? I'm going to PR And

177
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: they're like, and Tracy said, we got Josh and Gabe Davis.

178
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, fine, I talked to PR. They're like, sal,

179
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: just grab somebody, don't worry. I'm sure it's okay. Just

180
00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 1: clear it, you know, before you go on the air

181
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: or whatever. That's how that has to work. So well,

182
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: that's what we're thinking of in the meantime, I go

183
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: up to Jay Feely and I say, you gotta squib

184
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: this right now. Jay Feeley kicked in the NFL, of

185
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: course he said. He goes no, he said, I think

186
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: you could kick it deep and play defense. And I'm like, well,

187
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: I didn't agree with it, but I'm like, okay, yeah,

188
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: sure enough, they kick it deep. Now. There's been a

189
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: lot of talk since then about did Sean mcdermant want

190
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: to squib it? Did the message not get to the

191
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: special team's coach and the special team's coach and not

192
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: get it to Tyler bast what happened? We all know

193
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: the final result. They don't squib it, they kick it deep,

194
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: they play soft defense. Things go awry. Two plays later,

195
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: I see, you know, oh my god. After the one play,

196
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: I go down to the other end. I'm standing next

197
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: to Read Ferguson, the long snapper. I know, read yep.

198
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: I said to Read how far they how close safe

199
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: they get? He looked at me and he goes forty

200
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: two yard line. They'll have a shot. They get to

201
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: the thirty five games over and then John walking off

202
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: that field. I'll never forget the scene and the heartbreak,

203
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: but I'll also never forget it, just because of the

204
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: appreciation of the moment to be in that sort of

205
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: scene and the smoke and all the cameras and the

206
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: action and all of that. It was crazy. I mean,

207
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: obviously our dejection was a different form because we had

208
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 1: the lead and then watching it evaporate over a quarter,

209
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: so it was it was a different type of gut

210
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: punch where you were feeling the highs and lows. Almost

211
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: to the minute, we felt a really massive high and

212
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: then watch that. It was like you were watching the

213
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 1: car crash coming and you're like, just just turn turn,

214
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: turn turn. Oh man. It was a different feeling. But

215
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: I had kind of that same thought of walking off

216
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: the field that day in twenty nineteen, actually on into

217
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty was the last game that we played before COVID,

218
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: and I just remember thinking, something tells me this isn't

219
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: going to be the same. Something tells me. And it

220
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: was a different team for us than for you guys.

221
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: But I still felt like, look, we got we got

222
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 1: de Sean Watson, will be okay in the future. Obviously,

223
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: things did change rapidly to Andrea Hopkins was traded and J. J.

224
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 1: Watton was released and you know, everything changed from there.

225
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: But you guys, the Bills our position in such a

226
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: different way because of seventeen. And in that game, he

227
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: is unbelievable and he is, like he said, taking such

228
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: a star turn. And sal I go back to that

229
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: playoff game that we played against each other, and that

230
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: first half he was magnificent. He looked like he was

231
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: ready to turn the corner. In the second half he

232
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: has I think it was one of the buffalo right.

233
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 1: I think rights for the athletic Tim Murphy, Tim Graham, Yeah,

234
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: Tim Graham had said and used the phrase Wyoming Josh.

235
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: He became Wyoming Josh again. I thought it was a

236
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: great way of putting it. Because he did, things started

237
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: melting down, the Texas ended up getting the win, and

238
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 1: then went to Kansas City that very next week. Wyoming

239
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: Josh is in the rearview mirror about five thousand miles

240
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: away now, and he is on a track to be

241
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 1: maybe one of the best we've ever seen. When did

242
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: you south see that complete and total turn. Was it

243
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: in that game or was it prior to that that

244
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: set him up for that game? You know, really you

245
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: started to see the turn. I would say even believe

246
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: it or not. In the start of the twenty nineteen

247
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: season before that, when he had John Brown and Colebees

248
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: and he could see him doing all those things, but

249
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: the inconsistencies still showed up. But there was enough there

250
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: where you said, Okay, I think this kid has a

251
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: chance to really be really good. And then and then

252
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: really the major turn came in the first four games

253
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty during COVID, Josh Allen played like an MVP.

254
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: I mean he just was throwing the ball everywhere around

255
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,359
Speaker 1: the yard. Of course, they get Stefan Diggs. He was unstoppable.

256
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: The Bills had gone checked this out. The Bills had

257
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: gone five years I think since they had a three

258
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: hundred yard passer. Wow, Josh Allen took their four hundred

259
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: yards in the second week of the season that year, right,

260
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: I mean like they had three hundred and they had

261
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: four hundred. It was something like that. Tyrod Taylor was

262
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 1: the last one. It was an overtime game actually when

263
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,719
Speaker 1: Rex was there, so you know, he just it was

264
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: a big benchmark. They hit it. But then as the

265
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,960
Speaker 1: season went on, of course he had his ebbs and flows,

266
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: but he never he never stayed out of the MVP race.

267
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: He was always right there. He was runner up to

268
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: MVP that year, and then really last year when the

269
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: Bills just every time they needed a Josh Allen made it.

270
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: And I think that there wasn't like that one crystallized moment.

271
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 1: It was always more of a comfort of I know,

272
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 1: I got seventeen now, and we're always going to have

273
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: a chance with seventeen. And in that game against Patrick Mahomes,

274
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: that really showed up that. You know, what was different

275
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: about that game was John though the Bills are the

276
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: number one defense in the league. Last year, yeah, it

277
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: didn't play like the number one defense in the league.

278
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: And I think there were people questioning, well, if you

279
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: don't have the number one defense, can Josh Allen continue

280
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: to lay haymakers and come back all the time? Well

281
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: he answered that question for sure, and I think that

282
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: is what gives people, you know, the comfort of knowing, like, hey,

283
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: even if everything else isn't on point, seventeen's always gonna

284
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: keep him in this. Yeah, no doubt. You guys win

285
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,599
Speaker 1: a division, Bills win a division and twenty twenty in

286
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, I know there's a lot of New

287
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: England Patriots PTSD because they were so good for so long.

288
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: But as you realistically look at it South, do you

289
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: feel like the Patriots are in the rear view mirror

290
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: or do you always feel like they are The objects

291
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: that are closer today appear in the side mirror. How

292
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: do you look at the AFC East, in particular the

293
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. I love this question because it's such

294
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: a it's such a nuanced like kind of thing to

295
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: look at it from our perspective versus everywhere else. Because

296
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: when you lived here for twenty years and went through

297
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: what the Patriots did to the Buffalo Bills, there is

298
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: so much scar tissue built up John that even if

299
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: the Patriots were supposed to be the Jaguars this year,

300
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: let's say, right if they were a team that like, ah,

301
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: you know, what are they gonna even if you thought

302
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 1: they were Lions, it wouldn't matter. In Buffalo, we'd always

303
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: see them as no, no, no, it's the Patriots, Bill Belichick.

304
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, in our head, what are we gonna do? Right,

305
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: It's always going to be that. But the Bills, their

306
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: Bills really did bury the Demons last year, not only

307
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: obviously in the playoff game, but even going before that,

308
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: when they won in New England the day after Christmas.

309
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: Remember that game when Josh was a past the Bills

310
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 1: went two straight games without punting against a Bill Belichick

311
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: coach team. He never had that happen over four hundred

312
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: games of his coaching career. They did it twice in

313
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: a row. And then they go to the playoff game,

314
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: and I think they really buried the Demons. And let's remember,

315
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: as much as I have the scar tissue, Josh Allen

316
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: doesn't stop on digs, doesn't Matt Milano doesn't. Those guys

317
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: weren't here for twenty years. They don't care about that.

318
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: It's always there. But I'll say this, I think Bills

319
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: fans feel now that maybe even New England has to

320
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: worry about Miami obviously, and maybe that Miami's caught them.

321
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: And you know, you got the Jets and they have

322
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson. But if the Bills don't go out and

323
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: win this division again, and maybe even handily, I would

324
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: say I think that would be a really big disappointment now.

325
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: So Bills fans still think about them, but I don't

326
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 1: think they really few them as much of a threat,

327
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: especially considering the gap at quarterback. Oh, there is a

328
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: gap at quarterback, no doubt. From Josh down through everybody

329
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: in the league potentially not named Patrick Mahomes or Aaron Rodgers.

330
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: Josh Allen has been getting it done. We're gonna dive

331
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: into Josh Allen. We're gonna get into Von Miller, and

332
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: then our thoughts on the AFC coming up next. Right,

333
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: are in Texans all axis, rare in Texans all axis.

334
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: You're in Texans at welcome Back. It's money issue of Texans.

335
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: All access from the Hounday Texans Studio. I am John Harris,

336
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: glad you are with me. And we left you were

337
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: talking with our buddy salth Capaccio, the Buffalo Bills sildline reporter.

338
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: You can hear him at w g R in the

339
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 1: mid Day's Great Gig up there. Loves himselves of football

340
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: and some hockey. And yes he's a Yankees fans, so

341
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: I do break his balls a little bit here. But

342
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: we gotta talk about Von millerd Von Millard becoming a

343
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill. That was wild. And here's Sal discussing Miller's acquisition.

344
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: Sal afc East I think has gotten better. Tyreek goes

345
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: to Miami. I think the Jets are gonna be better.

346
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see what they do with

347
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: those two top ten picks in the draft. Everybody talked

348
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: about DAFC West, Khalil Matt goes to Chargers, Russell Wilson

349
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: gets traded there. I mean, Adams goes to the Raiders.

350
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: Every's talking about DAFC West, and yet Brandon Being and

351
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: Sean McDermott wait and wait, wait a little bit, and

352
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: then bang they get von Miller. Now, it's not Von

353
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: of twenty twelve, thirteen fourteen, when he was just completely

354
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: reckoned shot, but he is not far from that, still

355
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: being part of his game. We saw that the last

356
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: part of the season with the Rams. He and Donald

357
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: played off one another tremendously. What's been the thought in

358
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: Buffalo and bringing in von Miller to the Bills, Well,

359
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: a lot of it is here. We are in April

360
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: and people keep going, oh my god, I still can't

361
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: believe that von Miller's on the Buffalo Bills. Right, It's

362
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: just not the kind of move that this team has

363
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: made traditionally. Yeah, they signed Mario Williams from the Texans

364
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 1: back in twelve. That was a really big high ticket item,

365
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: and nobody ever thought he'd, you know, come to Buffalo,

366
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: but they kind of locked him in a room and

367
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: said signed the contract and offered him a whole bunch

368
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: of money, so he did. This was in that case, though, John,

369
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: this was a player choosing to come to Buffalo. Yes

370
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: the contract mattered, of course that he's getting twenty million,

371
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,479
Speaker 1: but overstaying in La with Aaron Donald and with that

372
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 1: incredible cast they have, and it shows that Buffalo as

373
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: a destination now is what it is? I think it's

374
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: it's it's obviously on the field what it represents that

375
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: this team is going to contend and right now they're

376
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: the favorite to win the super Bowl in most books.

377
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: But really what it is it represent it's representative of

378
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 1: what this organization's become. It's become a destination. And the guy,

379
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: the guy, believe it or not, who Bond Miller will

380
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: tell you convinced him to come to Buffalo is Stefan

381
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 1: Diggs who said, how great it is. You know, Jerry

382
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: Glanville had a great quote one time, and I know

383
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: you guys know Jerry well from there in Houston, right.

384
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: Great Glanville had a great quote one time. He said

385
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,360
Speaker 1: Buffalo made me cry twice in my life. Once when

386
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 1: we had when we had to move there, my wife

387
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: cry twice. I'm sorry, he said, once when I told

388
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: her we had to move there, and once when I

389
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: told her we had to leave. Buffalo is a great

390
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: city to be in, to live in, to work in,

391
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: to raise a family in, but you don't know it

392
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 1: until you get here. Stefan Diggs realized that von Miller

393
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: now is saying I want to be there. I want

394
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: to win championships. It's obviously not just about the city,

395
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: that's a big part of it, but about the fan base.

396
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: It's about the team they have. So to answer your

397
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: question about what bon Miller means, it's here to Buffalo,

398
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 1: it means the Bills are going all in to win

399
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. They're paying this man at the age

400
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: of thirty three, twenty million dollars a year because they

401
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 1: feel that if they have von Miller, they close out

402
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: the thirteen seconds in Kansas City. Yeah, I think you're

403
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: I think you're absolutely right about that, And that's a

404
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: great way of looking at it. And if you go

405
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: back to the previous playoff loss in twenty nineteen, I

406
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: should say twenty twenty against the Chiefs, but before that

407
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: against US, there was clearly a thought that Josh Allen

408
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: needed somebody to throw the ball too. Yeah, Diggs is

409
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 1: then traded for that offseason, and he signs the contract

410
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: this offseason, and away you go, and those two are together,

411
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 1: and it's it's kind of from AFAR awesome to watch

412
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: those two and how connected they are off the field.

413
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: They look like friends, they look like they're having fun together.

414
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: It's a pretty amazing to watch. Talk through this one.

415
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,360
Speaker 1: I especially a lot of teams making changes. Let's take

416
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,719
Speaker 1: our two teams out so we're not biased. Obviously our

417
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: team is not where yours is right now. I think

418
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: it's really hard to not see the Bills as number

419
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 1: one in the AFC. So I would put them at

420
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: the top. Maybe you're biased, maybe you wouldn't do it.

421
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: I would. Let's put them at the top. How would

422
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 1: you then handicap the AFC as it sits right now

423
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: with all the various quarterbacks that are really around a

424
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: conference to Shaun and Cleveland Burrow in Cincinnati. Obviously, well,

425
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 1: Josh Buffalo will leave them out of it. You've got

426
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks in the a f C West they're a

427
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: car with the Raiders now, Russell Wilson and Denver, everything

428
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: that has happened in AFC, how would you handicap it?

429
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: Beyond the Bills. I would still put put the Chiefs

430
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 1: right there with anybody, and I think that they'll be

431
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: battling in the end, probably, you know, with the Bills,

432
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,239
Speaker 1: because they soild Patrick Mahomes, they silve Andy Reid as

433
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,919
Speaker 1: I had coach. They still have a very talented offense,

434
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: even on without Tyree Hill. But they voluntarily got rid

435
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: of Tyreek Hill. I mean, they traded them right, and

436
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: it's going to hurt them, There's no doubt about that.

437
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: And they did have some battles with the Chargers last year.

438
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,239
Speaker 1: And you gotta love the Chargers roster as long as

439
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: you have Justin Herbert, as long as you have those

440
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: wide receivers, and I think they're defense. They're gonna have

441
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: some guys back from injury and things like that, They're

442
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: gonna be right there. The thing about the West is, though,

443
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: even if I put any team up near the Bills,

444
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: what people have to understand is that division's going to

445
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: cannibalize itself this year. Right. It's so good they're gonna

446
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: beat each other up. And the Bills only play one

447
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 1: team from the West this year, that is the Chiefs.

448
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: They don't play the dever Broncos. They don't play the Chargers,

449
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: they don't play the Raiders. Go ahead, have your fun

450
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: beat up on each other. We'll let you guys do

451
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 1: that while we're taking care of these guys in the ASCA.

452
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: So we're getting the number one seed, right, So I

453
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 1: think that's where the West falls in, which is I

454
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: do think those teams can compete for a championship, but

455
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: they're probably gonna have to go on the road at

456
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 1: the end of the day because they're beating each other

457
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: up and giving each other losses. The team that I

458
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: think is the dark horse is the Baltimore Ravens. They're

459
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: getting a lot of guys back from injury. John Harball's

460
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: an excellent coach. Lamar was hurt last year. We know

461
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: at the kind of level he can play at. I

462
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 1: always have a lot of respect for their organization. I

463
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: think the Baltimore Ravens are gonna be in this mix

464
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 1: when it's all said and done. And of course you

465
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: can't count out the Cincinnati Bengals. With Joe Burrow Jamar Chase,

466
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 1: that entire group. The thing about Cincinnati is, though you know,

467
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: do they have the wherewithal as an organization to make

468
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: everything happen, to make everything work as they go forward?

469
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: Essay had Joe Burrow. They did a good job addressing

470
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: the offensive line, but wasn't enough. He was the most

471
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: sack quarterback last year in the NFL. As you know,

472
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: I love the Miami Dolphins roster John As you know,

473
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: though you're you've coached, I've coached. The head coach is

474
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: a CEO. It's a different role from Mike McDaniel. I

475
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: don't know what he's gonna do there, just like I'll

476
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: tell you I love Brian Dabele. I don't know how

477
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: good of a head coach he'll be in the Giants.

478
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 1: It's a different role to be a head coach and

479
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: a delegator and a CEO that it is to be

480
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: a play caller or a coordinator and all the different

481
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: things that go along with it. And you're right because

482
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 1: it goes the other way too. I thought Mike Vrabel

483
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: was one heck of a position coach here in Houston.

484
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: His one year as a coordinator not so great. Now,

485
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: Look he lost J. J. Watton, Whitney, merciless. But you

486
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: always sense that Rabel was going to be a better

487
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: head coach than he even was a position coach or a

488
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: a coordinator, so it went the other way for him.

489
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: But there's some other guys that, man, they need to

490
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: be coordinators. Always felt like Vic Fangio needed to be

491
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: a coordinator, and it should be a coordinator. It's a

492
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: tremendous coordinator. And I think it's a head coach. He

493
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 1: got short change in Denver because he never really had

494
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 1: a quarterback situation that they needed to have in Denver

495
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,120
Speaker 1: for Vic to be successful. But there are always those guys,

496
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 1: and you're right, it's gonna be interesting with these new

497
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 1: coaches which guy ends up. And I thought when you

498
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: were talking about Miami, you were talking about Tua and

499
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: that's the one guy that if it doesn't happen for Tuah,

500
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: I mean the whole tank for two a couple of

501
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: years ago, Man, if that doesn't happen for Tuah. And

502
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: the thing about it is with the weapons they have offensively,

503
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: he's not a guy that throws the ball down the

504
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: field a ton. So are they just gonna be a

505
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 1: completely horizontal offense? Which at some point you end up

506
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: being able to stop, because if they can't attack you

507
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: down to field, forget it, then they've got to be

508
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: they've got to be that accurate and execute that well

509
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: for eight to ten to twelve play drives and that

510
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: that's just not gonna happen. And that was the one

511
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: thing with Kansas City. You saw that in twenty twenty one.

512
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: With Kansas City, teams were just saying, look, we're gonna

513
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna let you have stuff in front. We're gonna

514
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: take away the big place to the extent that we can.

515
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: And there were different ways teams were doing it, whether

516
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 1: it was more too high or whatever. But you saw

517
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: Kansas City sort of slow down because there's an impatience

518
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: with them and with Patrick and he wants to get

519
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: more as opposed to you give me seven yards, I'll

520
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 1: take seven yards. And that really wasn't wasn't part of

521
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 1: what they were doing, and it took them a little

522
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 1: while to adjust. So pretty interesting in the AFC draft

523
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: coming up, hugely important obviously for us. We're sitting at

524
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: three and thirteen. A lot of players that we talked about,

525
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: i'm sure have not been talked about a Buffalo because

526
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: maybe not gonna get that far. But I texted you

527
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 1: the other day and I'm gonna just paraphrase my text, okay,

528
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: because I did a mock drafts up Houston Texas dot

529
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: Com my version two. It'll be the last one. And

530
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: I texted you and I said, I can't get running

531
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: back out of my head, even though I would never

532
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: draft a running back in the first round unless that

533
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: dude is special. And I felt like I was one

534
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 1: player away, and I think breeseaw is special, and I

535
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: think you guys are, if not one player away or

536
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: a couple of players away from going and winning a ring.

537
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: So I could see it. So I said, you know

538
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,919
Speaker 1: what the bleep and I did it, and I mocked

539
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: Breefe Hall to the Buffalo Bills your response to first

540
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: round running back, but a dude deck could change things

541
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 1: all told, maybe take some of that running game heat

542
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: off of Josh combined with mosson singletary, what are your

543
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 1: thoughts about running back in the first round and if

544
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 1: not running back, where do you think the Bills going?

545
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: What are they doing? First round? Yeah? Well, first of all,

546
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: that's why I love talking with you, because you're so smart,

547
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 1: Because it's not even your team, but you you got it.

548
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: You understand the blueprint, and I'm with you. And this

549
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: is exactly how we've walked through this, and we've tried

550
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 1: to navigate this whole thing about running back because it

551
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 1: is a discussion and everything you said is exactly right, John,

552
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: which is this, let me lay it out this way.

553
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: I think Brandon Bean shares your philosophy, which I do too.

554
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: Don't draft the running back in the first round. Let's

555
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: look at what the Bills have done since Brandon Bean's

556
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: been here. La. Sean McCoy was already here when they

557
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: got here, all right, So that's one thing. But since

558
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean's been here in five years and now I

559
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: was a GM and Sean McDermott. The highest prick they've

560
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: ever spent in the running back is a third round

561
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: er twice, Devin Singletary and Zach They've never given a

562
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 1: big contract to a free agent running back. The only

563
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: running backs they've signed a free agency TJ. Yelden Sonoris Perry.

564
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: They tried to get jd. Mkissick, which have been a

565
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: nice this year. It wasn't even gonna be a ton

566
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 1: of money. He went back to Washington. They signed Duke Johnson.

567
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: These are not spenders. They're not Matt Breeda. They're not

568
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: paying a lot of money. The Bill's philosophy of building

569
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: their team is we got seven team. We're not paying

570
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: a running back because he's throwing the ball to all

571
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: the wide receivers and that's just not a financially sound

572
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: structure to build a football team. We're not using big

573
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: assets on that. However, let's go back to what we

574
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: said about von Miller. This was something different. It was

575
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: off script. It was an all in move. The Bills

576
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: have done everything to go all in this offseason, including

577
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: making sure stuff on Digs is happy and not having

578
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: a distraction by giving him a contract extension. To me,

579
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: that's an all in move, Like, I'm not letting anything

580
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: derail us this year. Don't let this guy be unhappy.

581
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: Let's get him there. I think Greese Hall is an

582
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: all in move, so I wouldn't be surprised. It's just

583
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: now how Brandon Bean has operated. Now that said, John

584
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary was really good in the last five six

585
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: weeks of the season, one of the best running backs

586
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: in the league. They also have Josh Allen, who's a

587
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: quasi running back back there. How many balls are there

588
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: really to go around for this offense? The Bills did

589
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 1: tip their cap by and Brandon Bean did tip his

590
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: hand by signing thinking he's signed Jade McKissick at least

591
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: agreeing to a deal, and then by going out and

592
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: getting Duke Johnson. So they do want that guy. They

593
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 1: want a guy to put in this offense. So I

594
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: think a guy like Treylon Burks could even fit into

595
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,479
Speaker 1: this heat to me, is like a Deebo Samuel Light right.

596
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: He's a guy that you get the ball in his hands.

597
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: He makes explosive plays wide receivers, an area I think

598
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to address outside of step On Diggs

599
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,719
Speaker 1: and Gabriel Davis. Who's the third outside guy. It's Mark

600
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 1: Quiz Stevenson right now. Who you know they're from Houston, right,

601
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: I mean just not the experience. Now you have Jamison Crowder,

602
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: you have Isaiah McKenzie. Slot guys, they do need to

603
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: add to that group. If there's a thought and buffalo

604
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: that last eleven personnel more twelve personnel, and that's why

605
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: they signed Oj Howard. You have Dawson Knox, Oj Howard.

606
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: So maybe they don't go there. The one glaring need,

607
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: the one thing that sticks out in this ro on

608
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: this roster, if you look at it, is cornerback Tredevious

609
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 1: White coming off in ACL. He's five months removed right now.

610
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: By the time the season comes around, what is he

611
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 1: gonna be? John? I don't mean, I don't know. That's

612
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 1: a tough deal. That's a tough injury to come back

613
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: from right and opposite him. They let Levi Wallace go.

614
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: He's signed a free agency with the Pittsburgh Steelers. They

615
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: like Dane Jackson a lot. I like Dane Jackson. But

616
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: if you go into a game right now, you're starting

617
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: corners are Tredevious White coming off the ACL and Dane Jackson,

618
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,239
Speaker 1: and behind them, you don't have a lot other than

619
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: some young guys coming off your practice squad. I think

620
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: corner is the spot that stands out to where the

621
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: Bills are probably going to have to shift a lot

622
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: of their attention early in the draft. I think there

623
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: are a couple of good options down there, though, So

624
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: I think I like this cornerback class. I think there's

625
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: there's some good depth beyond the two that everybody talks about.

626
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: Sauce and Destiny. I wouldn't mind having one of those

627
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: two here, whether it's three or thirteen, because the Texans

628
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,239
Speaker 1: have got to improve that position as well. So at

629
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: three or thirteen I could. I mean, I'd be okay

630
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: with those two. Beyond that, you've got Trey mcduffey Washington.

631
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: You've got Andrew Booth from Clemson. Even though he's not

632
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: working out. Everybody knows what Booth can do. I mocked

633
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: him to the Patriots. He just felt like a Patriot.

634
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: But the two that I think, and I had one

635
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: fall into us at thirty seven, but Kyler Gordon from

636
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: out of Washington and Kyer Elam from out of Florida.

637
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: I think those two guys would fit what McDermott wants

638
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: to do defensively. I think they're physical, they're athletics all

639
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: get out, the good size for a corner. Those are

640
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: the two that I could I could see coming off

641
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: the board for a corner if that's where they highlight

642
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: it right there I had. I did put Breeze Hall

643
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: in there, and I had Gordon I think going right

644
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the first round. But then I

645
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: had at number thirty seven, so I did I mocked

646
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: through thirty seven because that's where we are. I had

647
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: us taken Kyer Elam at that point because I did

648
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 1: not take Saucer Stingley earlier. But I think corner is

649
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: a tremendous position for the Bills to have a need

650
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: because there's plenty of depth. And even if they do

651
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 1: go corner in the first and they and here to

652
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: that philosophy, they're gonna find a running back in the

653
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: third round. They're going to find a running back in

654
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: a third round. Who's pretty because there's a lot of them.

655
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: There's so many running backs in this draft, and it's

656
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: such a very group. Like you said, you mentioned Treylon

657
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: Burks and different things he can do. These running backs

658
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: all do so many different things. And I've had I've

659
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: told people here, what you know, what are gonna do

660
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: a thirty seven when you can do a thirty seven?

661
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: And I was like, as much as a as much

662
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: as i'd like to have Breesaw b I don't know

663
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: if he's gonna be there, but see I might pass

664
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: on him to look at sixty eight and eighty with

665
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,719
Speaker 1: the running back and get maybe a higher priority position

666
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 1: like corner, like a Kyer Elam that I would pass

667
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: on Breesaw even though it would kill me. Like you

668
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 1: said earlier, you got to stick to your philosophy, and

669
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: that is priority positions in the first couple of rounds. Man,

670
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 1: if you got an opportunity to go get one, you

671
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: have to absolutely go get them. So I think I

672
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: think you're right. I think corners and you mentioned Dan Jackson.

673
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: I think he can be a good I think he'd

674
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 1: be a good player, but it might be too much

675
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: to expect it right now. And like you said, Tredevius

676
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: coming off the ACL, you never know how somebody's can react.

677
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: Some guys come off ACL and it's like you never

678
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: knew they were hurt. Yeah, the guys, It just takes

679
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: a while, especially in a position like that. Yeah, So

680
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: let me touch on corner, on running back. Then I

681
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: want to go back to corner because I think you

682
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: said a lot of really good things. Can you get

683
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: a guy like Isaiah Spiller in the second round? You know,

684
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker is gonna be there. Pierre Strong a guy

685
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: I think would really fit for the Bills later in

686
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: the draft, right, I mean, I think that's a guy

687
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: you could look at. So I agree with you one

688
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: hundred percent. Maybe that's the way you go, and I

689
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 1: think that's been the modus operandi of Brandon Bean. I'm

690
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: gonna get these guys in middle rounds. Devin Singletary has

691
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: one year left on his deal. At the way the

692
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: Bills pay their team, I don't think they're gonna pay

693
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: him a second contract. So I think you get him. Now,

694
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: you get a running back in another third rounder, Zach

695
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: Moss hasn't quite worked out. Then he takes over in

696
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: that role. Now you have another guy at rookie contract.

697
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: You should kind of let the whole thing churn itself

698
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: over all the time at that position. So let's go

699
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: to corner. You're on the same two guys I am.

700
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 1: I think the best two options for the Bills are

701
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 1: Kyrie Elam and Kyler Gordon. I actually mocked ky Elam

702
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 1: to the Bills in my first on Friday, So however,

703
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: that is subject to change, and I very well think

704
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: I might be getting to Kyler Gordon by the time

705
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: it's all said and done because of what you said. Look,

706
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: if you talk to analysts and scouts and you've done this,

707
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: Kyler Gordon could wind up being the highest ceiling guy

708
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: of the whole group, and that includes saus Gardner and

709
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: Derek Stingley Junior. I mean, this guy has the athletic

710
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: traits to maybe do that. And John, I've been selling

711
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: myself for eleven months, so I remember this. I remember

712
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 1: this eleven months I've been saying it. I gotta remember this.

713
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: The Bills love to draft traits under Sean, under Brandon Bean,

714
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: Greg Rousseau, Spencer Brown, Tommy Doyle, guys who have a

715
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: Austin Knox Raw. But we're gonna We're gonna develop them.

716
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna have faith in our coaching staff. They're gonna

717
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: be great under us. They let lee By Wallace walk

718
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: lee By Wallace decent athlete. What he is is a technician. Though. Yes,

719
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: I think they want a better athlete there. I think

720
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: they want speed there. I think they want a hip

721
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: turner there. I think they want a guy who can

722
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: catch Tyreek Hill. Maybe not catch him, you know what

723
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: I mean, who can at least stay a little bit

724
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: more in trail coverage on Tyreek Kill than what we saw.

725
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: And I think that's the change of philosophy. So I

726
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: think Kyler Gordon, by the way, Lorenzo Alexander our friend

727
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: plays who's out in Arizona, not played for the Buffalo Bills.

728
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: He actually is in the media. He and I were

729
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: chatting last week and you know what, working through this,

730
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: he took Kyler Gordon to his mock draft doing it

731
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: doing a radio as well for the Bills, and he

732
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: knows the kind of player the Bills are looking for.

733
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: I think elam I think Gordon by the way, Andrew Booth,

734
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: so many Bills fans are mocking him. You know, he

735
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: had Osgard slaughters as a kid growing up, and I'm

736
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: not saying that can prevent him. He's had a great

737
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: career and that's great, right. He also had the double hernia.

738
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: The medical is such a big deal. I just wonder

739
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: if that fits into what the Bills would want right now. Yeah, No,

740
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: I absolutely, and I think that's a that's a big part.

741
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: Like I said, he felt like a Patriot to me,

742
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: just the way that he plays the game. Belichick saying, look,

743
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: we gotta wait for him, will wait for him. I

744
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: just not to say that the Patriots are more patient

745
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 1: to the Bills, but this is and I don't know,

746
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,880
Speaker 1: some people like to talk about the windows. I bring

747
00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: it up sometimes when you have Josh Allen, I think

748
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: the window is just going to stay opened for a while,

749
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 1: But that really wide open window is right now and

750
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: getting somebody, even if it's a rookie that could come

751
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: in and has traits. And it's so interesting when you

752
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: just talk to scouts. The first thing they they'll bring

753
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 1: up every single trait you can think of. It's not oh, well,

754
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: this guy, this guy you know he played well in

755
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 1: this game, or he played well against this guy. It's

756
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: this guy has length, this guy has speed, this guy

757
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: has size. It's all of that and then beyond that,

758
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: because as they say, you win with traits, which I don't.

759
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with all that much, all right, I'd

760
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: be remiss if I didn't finish with how much vitriol

761
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: you have towards Garrett Cole early in April and how

762
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: he's handling his business with your pin stripers, because I

763
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: know my fans in Houston well schaden freud watching him,

764
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: frustration and meltdowns. They're having a great time doing. It's

765
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: a hard Yankees fans feeling about it. Actually, I'll tell

766
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: you this, they're pretty mad, but thankful for Garrett Cole.

767
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: That the offense has stunk because they're more mad at

768
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: the fact that they kick it and he runs. They lose.

769
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: They're getting shut out by the Tigers. They're losing their

770
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: score two runs a game, right, Garrett Cole Opening Day,

771
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I'm jacked up. Opening Day whatever. Right,

772
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like you know, they're doing the

773
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 1: whole thing at Yankee Stadium. They're saying God Bless America.

774
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: They're having throughout the first pitch, and this guy's going

775
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: crazy the dugout because he has to wait for a

776
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: minutes to go out and pitch. I'm like, dude, like,

777
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: I get it, you got your routine, but it totally

778
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 1: messed him up. Couldn't find the strike zone a couple

779
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,399
Speaker 1: of times. So listen, I mean, I'm a Yankee fan.

780
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 1: You know that I'm a little upset about the whole

781
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: errand Judge situation and where that's gone. My son, he's

782
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 1: he's eight years old. He loves eron Judge. He has

783
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: sunglasses and he calls him his err and Judges because

784
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 1: they look like the ones. Dad give me my errand

785
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: judges right when he plays baseball, so you know, he

786
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: likes to win. Him in ninety nine when he can.

787
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 1: So I'm upset about that. And now, of course we

788
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: have the whole Yankee letter coming out soon. It's coming.

789

800
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,920

Speaker 1: much about our trip to Buffalo, and well that's a

816
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 1: story for a different day. But we had a blast regardless,

817
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: and he did a great job showings Buffalo. So when

821
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,520

822
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 1: get back the Texans draft at three thirteen thirty seven.

823
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: You know the numbers. What if we were able to

824
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: draft from all time at those spots, what kind of

825
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 1: team could we put together? Drew Doran I did that.

826
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: We'll do that next. Texas Access, Texas Access, Texas Access.

827
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 1: We got one file segments Monday edition the Texans All

828
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 1: Access from Monday Texans Radio Studio. I am John Harris,

829
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: and we all know the draft is coming up on Thursday.

830
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 1: And Drew Dory and I do this every year. It's

831
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: one of our favorite geek out moments in the Lab.

832
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: And we look at the position where the Texans are drafting,

833
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:10,280
Speaker 1: and we draft the best players at those particular positions

834
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: all time, and it starts at number three all time. Man,

835
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,280
Speaker 1: listen to some of these names, yet we had to

836
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: keep it close to home with our pick. Check this

837
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: out to day on in the Lab, John, we're making

838
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: the Texans a better football team and we're doing so

839
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: by drafting players from the past, okay out of the

840
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: current selection. So like the Texans have the third overall pick,

841
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: so we've got Andre John all the all time third

842
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: overall picks. And we're gonna get into that because there

843
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 1: might exactly so there might be some reasons to change

844
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,879
Speaker 1: your mind about that. But all of the third round

845
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: picks in the history or third overall picks in the

846
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: history of the draft, starting in nineteen thirty six in

847
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,399
Speaker 1: that case because some of the years are a little

848
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: different are at our disposal. So there's eleven selections total.

849
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna write him down and we're not gonna get

850
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: too exhausted on this. We could, we could spend an

851
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: entire podcast on every single one of these picks, but

852
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: we're not. It's gonna be the reader's digest version and

853
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna get going. So with the third overall pick

854
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: john the Texans have had it once. They had Andre

855
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: Johnson in two thousand and three. Say no more. I

856
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: mean he's a Hall of Famer. Further, he's a Hall

857
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: of Famer in my book. Now, you've had some people

858
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,760
Speaker 1: who have changed the game at their positions respectively, also chosen.

859
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: Twelve who've been chosen third overall wound up in the

860
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame. Are good. Pal Tyler Marcott,

861
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: he's Detroit Lions fan nume growing up. Now he loves

862
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: the Texans, but when he was a little guy, he

863
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,919
Speaker 1: had his Detroit Lions pj's. He went to sleep under

864
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: his Detroit Lions bedsheets at night. Bobby Lane maybe the

865
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: greatest Detroit Lione ever? Or is he? Oh? I think

866
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:03,320
Speaker 1: I was thinking a different because there's another third overall

867
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: pick by the Detroit Lions. Uh, Doke Walker, who you

868
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: could say is maybe the great Oh no, no, Barry

869
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: Sanders was also a third overall pick, but Doke Walker

870
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: was a third overall pick. Two three pretty good. Two

871
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: of them were Higsman winners. Two of them Landon Walker

872
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: played in the same backfield in high school. How about that?

873
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: You had the greatest Texas quarterback not named Vince Young

874
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 1: and then uh, you got Doe Walker, whos the greatest

875
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,720
Speaker 1: sm of you football. It's kind of like Clayton Kershaw

876
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 1: and Matt Stafford were high school teammates, exactly like that,

877
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: Like that also taken a third overall. Y a tittle

878
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,839
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer from LSU. He's a quarterback played in

879
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: the in the league for a long time in the sixties.

880
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 1: Olie Mattson. Oh yeah, a guy named Johnny Robinson who

881
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: was an LSU. Yeah, he had like nearly sixty decade

882
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 1: all decade al teams, I should say, as a child

883
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,720
Speaker 1: of the eighties, like you, I know Merlin Olson from

884
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: the dick Enberg Merlin Olson tandem on NBC. But he was, yeah,

885
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: he was. He was a phenomenal defensive tackle for the

886
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 1: Ramps for a long time. Yep, so was Charlie Taylor,

887
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 1: a wide receiver for the for Washington. Dick Butkus, I

888
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 1: mean some people associate the linebacker position with Dick Buckas.

889
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: You had a dog named Butkas named after Dick Buckas. Yes,

890
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: Claude Humphrey maybe the most underrated defensive lineman of all time.

891
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: It was a sackmaster for the Falcons for about fourteen years.

892
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: Another guy who you could say is the best left

893
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:32,760
Speaker 1: tackle ever, best offensive lineman ever, Anthony Munios, third overall,

894
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 1: Barry Sanders, and then Cortez Kenners. He was third overall.

895
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: So you've got those guys. Those are twelve for him

896
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. You've also got Dre Who's gonna

897
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: be in the Hall of Fame? Say the year after

898
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: Drey was picked, Larry Fitzgerald picked by the Cardinals. That's

899
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 1: pretty good. Joe Thomas pro bowler just about every single

900
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: year but his but his last. And then Matt Ryan

901
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: and Joey Bosa, two excellent picks. Yes, this is the

902
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: Houston Texans podcast. We love the Texans. Andre Johnson is

903
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: the Chuck. The only guy I think I would consider

904
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 1: bumping for for him would be Munio's just because of

905
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 1: how amazing he would be. But do we want to

906
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: would consider Barry Sanders? Of course you'd yeah, but yeah,

907
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: it's a Texas podcast. We're going with you. We're gonna

908
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 1: stick with Dre. So Texans go to the podium and

909
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: they take Dre first to overall, my sharpie does not work,

910
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 1: so um here you got pencils. The pencils sharp low five.

911
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 1: So Dre is our first pick. Now we did every

912
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,040
Speaker 1: single pick, so go check out in the Lab podcast
