13
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: But it's speaking of that would be myself. Uh, I'd

14
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,239

22
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: Will give it daily depths as well, but let's start

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: by I guess given a quick recap and a quick

24
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: reaction to Championship round here in the playoffs a f

25
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: C NFC North Championship Um. Both games did not go

26
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: the way I thought they were gonna go. I was,

27
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: I mean stunned by what I saw there in Denver.

28
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: The Patriots, I mean, they couldn't get anything going offensively.

29
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: That Denver Front seven played a heck of a game.

30
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: Like Tom Brady was running for his life before he

31
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: even hit the back of his like two step drops

32
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: out of the shotgun to try and throw the ball.

33
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: And they took away all of the sort of the

34
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: slants and little out routes that they made their money on,

35
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: and it just totally flustered them. It was. It was

36
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: a really impressive performance from Denver. Was Julian Edelman alive

37
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: define a lot? I mean he put on a uniform

38
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 1: and went out on the field that day, but yeah,

39
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: he was kind of a rumor for for most of

40
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: the afternoon. It was amazing. Um. I was shocked by

41
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: what I saw the the the Patriots offense, which had

42
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: been pretty running pretty well. I just got nothing going

43
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,639
Speaker 1: in Denver. Uh, a total mia colpa on my part.

44
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: We did the Tostedo's weekend scoop thing and uh and

45
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: this was a quote from me. Uh. I think it's

46
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: cute that people think that this game will be close.

47
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: It will not. So you didn't believe the game was

48
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: gonna be closed? Huh, it will be a Patriots blowout. Um. Yeah. Hey,

49
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: by the way, so we got Matt Harmon here. He's

50
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: a big time Carolina Panthers fan, kind of a tortured tool.

51
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: It's a complicated related, very complicated what's your take from

52
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: this Arizonic Carolina game? Man? Um, Again, I was surprised.

53
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be a close game. I really,

54
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: you know, Like I said, it is a complicated relationship

55
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: between the Panthers and I And that's a lot of

56
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: that is on my end as a like it's it's

57
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: not you, it's me sort of thing. He's an emotionally

58
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: complex game, very emotionally complex being. Yeah, and um, but

59
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: what makes me really love this team is how they

60
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: just like when they're on, they can just put the

61
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: foot on the throat and just suffocated team that way.

62
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: And that's really what they did all afternoon or evening,

63
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: depending on where you live. And Carson Palmer kind of

64
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: went full Jake Delme and you never go full and

65
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: which is ironic. You know, the same same team that

66
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: did it to Delme there and he had that moment

67
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: in Carolina. But I mean, I never honestly, it's it's crazy.

68
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: I never thought that, like in my adult life, that

69
00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: the Panthers would be in the super Bowl. I mean,

70
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: it's insane. It's a special moment. You're making it sound

71
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: like they haven't been there but lifetime, I said, my

72
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: adult lifetime. I think I was like eleven or twelve

73
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: last time. And you were saying that my friend Pete

74
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: watched the game with us too. You were saying you

75
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: weren't even as big of a football fan at that point.

76
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: Of course, I was like reading Harry Potter and right exactly.

77
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: But anyways, Yeah, so it's crazy and it's really exciting,

78
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: and I love just Cam Newton in the stage there

79
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: and everything. It's gonna be it's gonna be a blast,

80
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: and I'm excited for you guys to go and meet tonight.

81
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: Um quicker hot take here. But I know that I

82
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: know that it's uh, it's very convenient to say it's

83
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: the number one defense versus the number one offense. I

84
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: don't get it. Like, to me, it's not like Caroline

85
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: is the greatest show on turf. Here. They score a

86
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: lot of points with Ted gain. But that's what I'm seeing, right,

87
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean Fozzy Whittaker and Jonathan Stewart.

88
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Cam Newton is obviously the engine that makes

89
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: it go. They they've scored a lot of points this year.

90
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: I think they're the top scoring team in the NFL.

91
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: That's fine, but they also lead the league in takeaways. Man, Like,

92
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: this is not this is not a the reason Carolina

93
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: could put guys away and just absolutely take their soul.

94
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: Where are they weak? Where? I mean they're gonna score points,

95
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: They're gonna stop you on defense. Um, I just think

96
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: it's it's so strange that to me, we should be

97
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: billing this as as Peyton versus Cam. And that's fine,

98
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: But to say it's a number one defense versus number

99
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: one it just but I think you have I think

100
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: you have to build it that way because you can't

101
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 1: really build as Peyton versus Cam because what do you

102
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: have any confidence that Peyton can move the ball against

103
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: this team? Right? Well, and that's the same thing. Even

104
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: the MC Championship game was more so the Denver defense

105
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: versus Brady, not Brady versus Manning, and the Denver defense

106
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: won that matchup. Now are they going to be able

107
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: to do the same thing trying to corral that six

108
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: ft five for speed human tank known as Cam Newton?

109
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: Don't know. I don't know either. All I know is

110
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: that I just chafe at when they would say it's

111
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: the number one defense versus number it just it doesn't

112
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: to me. It doesn't seem to give Carolina their full

113
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: do Now it's more of the like proverbial passing of

114
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: the torch, you know, especially if Cam Newton and the

115
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 1: Panthers win the game. But either way, it's like we're

116
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: seeing what was and what is now true on full

117
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: display between these two quarterbacks. It's yeah, I mean, I'm

118
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: having kind of hard like I'm kind of having trouble

119
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: putting it into words because it's so weird, you know.

120
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: It's cool. As I was thinking about this too, if

121
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: you think about uh, Like, the last handful of Super Bowls,

122
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: it's basically been old guard quarterbacks versus new guard quarterbacks

123
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: because it was Wilson v. Manning, Wilson v. Brady, and

124
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: Cam v. Manning. So it's all right. I'm really excited

125
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: too for Wilson and Newton to kind of be in

126
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: the future Brady Manning, they shift your game of a

127
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: f C. You need some new, hot young quarterbacks. God,

128
00:06:54,640 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: is there anybody like Portles Blake, Bortles, Black Bortles. Oh boy,

129
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl preview, let's do it there. There's a few

130
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: names out here, a lot of first rounders, there's no

131
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: doubt about it, but some deeper guys too. Um at

132
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: quarterback Carson Wentz. I know he's so hot right now,

133
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: that Carson. That Carson, Like literally I put I put

134
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: him on because he was obviously the hottest name off

135
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: of the attendees. And then like as soon as I

136
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: was building the run on yesterday, I see Twitter going

137
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 1: like because everybody was arriving in Mobile, Obama, where the

138
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl is, and they were like, oh, I'm talking

139
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: to scouts. They think Carson Wentz like not not only

140
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: a lock to be a first rounder but a lock

141
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: to be a top ten pick, and blah blah blah

142
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: blah blah. And I was like, whoa, where does Daniel

143
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: Jeremiah has got him in the top five or some four?

144
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: Number four to Dallas. It's ridiculous. Wait was it their

145
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: line that had him afforda Dallas or I believe it's

146
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: the it's TJ's got number four to Dallas. I know

147
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: their lines got him at twelve. At twelve to the

148
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: Saints is where their line has him, and Bucky has

149
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: him at fifteen to the Los Angeles Ram, Yes, Los

150
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: Angeles Ram. That is in and Joe Marino, who writes

151
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: for Draft Breakdown at the Joe Marino on Twitter he said,

152
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: yesterday I've not spoken to one person yet in mobile

153
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: that did not mention Carson Wentz. Indescribable. Now you know that.

154
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: I don't know who it was I saw on Twitter

155
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: mentioned this, But I think it was a good point

156
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: though that because none of us, I mean really are

157
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: very few of us knew who Carson Wentz was until

158
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: maybe a little week or two ago. Now he's going

159
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: to have a whole lot more screw and you're gonna

160
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: see a lot of nitpicking. I mean, you know, draft

161
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: season is the time for nitpicking, but Carson Wentz may

162
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: get nitpicked. That's why that's why you won't see him

163
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: at the combine. That's why you won't see him throw.

164
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: You won't see anything he has too though, That's why

165
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: he's at the Senior Bowl. Is he buzzes so hot

166
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: that like, where can Carson Wentz go from here? Right?

167
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: Like he could only go down? You see what I'm saying,

168
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: Like DJ has got him in the top five, there's

169
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: you can only go down. Carson Wentz at the North

170
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,719
Speaker 1: Dakota State big, tall, burly guy can run in a

171
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: little it too, running pretty well actually, but um gosh,

172
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: I would be shot if if I'm his agent. There's

173
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 1: no there's no way. I haven't played Senior Bowl and

174
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: there's and that's it. Nothing else, Like no one's gonna

175
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: touch this guy because he's at worst going to be

176
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: at the end of the first round at worst, But

177
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: if he starts throwing around the combine looking horrible, can't

178
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 1: make throws, he could follow at the top two or

179
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: three round. If he plays better, though, he could vault

180
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 1: himself over a guy like Jared Goff, who pretty much

181
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,719
Speaker 1: everybody else had at number two going to Cleveland right now.

182
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 1: But DJ has already got him ahead of of golf. Yeah,

183
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: other dollars didn't. I now golf golf as ahead of

184
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: it Wentz and DJ's mock too. Oh is he? They

185
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: have all of them, All of them have Cleveland taking

186
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: golf at too. Wow. I'm kind of with you, James

187
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: that if he nails the Senior Bowl, Like if he

188
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: comes out of this week and just looks like a

189
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: you know, a man amongst boys and sort of stuff,

190
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 1: looks really good, I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't

191
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: throw it. But nobody rose with the combine. I can't

192
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: wait until we see Mike Mayock setting up a folding

193
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: chair on the sidelines at the Fargo Dome for Carson

194
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: Wentz's pro name. He's not going to do that, but anyways,

195
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: that's why it's important to watch him this weekend at

196
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl is because if he does perform well

197
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: and he goes in the first round, he becomes one

198
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: of those guys he could be a name to watch

199
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: in fantasy circles. Oh my gosh, I gotta be honestly,

200
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 1: I I haven't even begun to watch Carson Wentz tape.

201
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: Oh god. Now, yeah, I've watched him play live a

202
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: little bit and like I hit you, Yeah, Like, well,

203
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: I work here on Saturdays, so I don't have a

204
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: lot else to do when I'm here. Good for you.

205
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: So I've been keeping up with a lot of college

206
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 1: football stuff. But yeah, no, Wentz is definitely exciting. I mean,

207
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: I think he has like a playmaker's mentality and he,

208
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: like we said, he can run and definitely has an arm.

209
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 1: So this is gonna be big for him. Alright, So

210
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: at the running back position, I gotta be honest with you,

211
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: who is KENNETHA. Dixon. He's gonna be somebody you want

212
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: to get to know. Do aimes. He is fun to watch.

213
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: He actually, for a matter of days, he was hyper

214
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: productive for all four years. For a matter of days,

215
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: actually held the FBS record for the most touchdowns in

216
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: a career. But then the Navy quarterback whatever his name was,

217
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: Keenan whatever, surpassed him. Uh. He's a compact guy. He's

218
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 1: like five ten, like two twelve. Um. He looks a

219
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: little bit like it looks a little bit like Doug Martin.

220
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: I was, I was tweeting some vines of him last night,

221
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: and one of the other one of the guys, Rob Donaldson,

222
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: who does his own website, I think he's on the

223
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: clock and he does videos for Draft Breakdown as well,

224
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 1: said he kind of reminded him of Doug Martin, and

225
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: I got that. He's got excellent feet, he's got power,

226
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: he punishes people, and he's got good hands too, So

227
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: he's he's kind of he's kind of the real deal here,

228
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be really fun to see how he

229
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: does with the combine and stuff, how he looks in

230
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl and if he's that kind of like because

231
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: a mere ab Duela was a guy that you know,

232
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: he performed really well at the Senior Bowl. He blew

233
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: up the combine and then he started rocketing up both

234
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: the regular draft and Fantasy Draft boards. So five, ten

235
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: to fifteen, if he could put together you know, um,

236
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 1: a good forty time and and and a good showing

237
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: here at the Senior Bowl, Uh, he's well, I mean,

238
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: certainly it's a prototypical NFL running back body. You gotta

239
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 1: like Kenyan Drake right from Alabama. The speed, I mean,

240
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: obviously he's a little bit of a one dimensional back.

241
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 1: Uh seems like a big play third down guy. But

242
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: uh but boy, you see the tape and you know

243
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: the guy could fly. He's got speed. He I didn't

244
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: enjoy his watching him as much because his feet, Like

245
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: it was funny because I wrote this down when I

246
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: was watching and I was reading Sura lines profile later

247
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: and certain first line was can be exhausting watching watching

248
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: him because his feet don't stop ever. Like literally, it's

249
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: like he looks you know, he looks like he's Honestly,

250
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 1: there's an expression like when I used to play soccer

251
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: a lot more is you didn't want to have like

252
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: wasted motion in in your in your cuts and you're

253
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: moving and on the field and stuff like that, and

254
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: it just looks like Kenyan Drake. I mean, he's still

255
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: fast as hell, but he is just constantly moving and

256
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't look fluid like you know, other guys will

257
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: have their clean cuts and they'll set it up. His

258
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: feet are just like thought all over the place, like

259
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: Tasmanian devil style. You don't want to be too frenetic.

260
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: Don't want to be too frenetic. It's a good way

261
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: to put it. It works for Darren sprowls. It's true now,

262
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: but his is much more contained then than Kenyan Drake's.

263
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: It's probably because his legs are about half a short. Yes,

264
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure that helps, but it's true when

265
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: you're more compact, you can get away with a little um.

266
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: The only thing that Kenyan Rake might have to work

267
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: on his his hands a little bit too, because it

268
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: sometimes looks like he was he was fighting the ball

269
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 1: when he was trying to catch it, and he had

270
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 1: he had a couple of drops in his career, and

271
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 1: he was injured a lot at Alabama. So he's gonna

272
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: be a system guy. I mean, he's got to get

273
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: into the right system because he's not one of these

274
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: guys that were you know, he lands on any team

275
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: and succeeds, you know what I mean. No, he's gonna

276
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: have to be a role player to probably he's not

277
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: a special team a role player guy, and that's how

278
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 1: he gets third down Charles Simms type or something like that.

279
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: UH wide receiver. I'm I'm super excited to talk to

280
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: UH Matt Harmon here about these wide receivers because I

281
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: know you've watched and UH broken down a few of

282
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: these guys. Know yeah, I've seen a little bit of

283
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: all of them. The guy at the top was my favorite.

284
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: I've talked a lot about him as Sterling Shepherd. You're

285
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: big on him, yes, very big. Just let Harmon take

286
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 1: the floor here, No, no please, I mean no really,

287
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: I mean of us for you. You've done the tape breakdown,

288
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: and I know you've given him grades. Um Sterling Shepherd

289
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: breakdown his game. Yeah. So you know when I, like

290
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: I mentioned, I worked here on Saturday. So what I've

291
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: been doing all year basically is is charting all these

292
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: wide receivers for reception perception, and I've finished four of

293
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: them so far. Sterling Shepherd is one of the guys

294
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: that I've finished the complete sample on and he was

295
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: just like when I I didn't know anything about him

296
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: until I turned the tape on and started working and

297
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: immediately was impressed. Um polished is the one thing that

298
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: I really was taking away from him. He's just so

299
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: he's a great route runner, and mean, you don't see

300
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: a lot of guys that run good routes in college. Um.

301
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: I remember he has some sexy vines on Twitter. Like,

302
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: I haven't watched the actual tape yet, but I've seen

303
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: things that like Harmon's tweeted out and other people and

304
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 1: it's like you wipe the brow off you're getting like

305
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: Steeny watching those routes for I mean yeah, and and

306
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: like not only does he have a great like he

307
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 1: gets off press coverage really well, he's for reception perception.

308
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: I put a little post up on on my website. Um,

309
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: he just like blew everybody away in in getting open

310
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: versus press coverage, man coverage to um, he's just like

311
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: he's always open. He's like the consummate guy that is

312
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: consistently running good routes in a variety of patterns. And

313
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: I think he makes plays with the ball in the

314
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: air too. And that's gonna be the big question that

315
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: can he be a guy that makes plays in traffic,

316
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: because if he is, he's gonna be really hard to stop,

317
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: especially early in his pro career. I think that one

318
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: of the always the early knocks of these guys from

319
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: the Big twelve is that you know, it's more of

320
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: a wide open offensive league and they don't play defense

321
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: down and that's the that's the I think it's the misconception.

322
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: But but yeah, they don't have you know, necessarily lockdown dudes.

323
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: But and especially because every team is so wide open,

324
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: it's it's hard for defenders to shine. Um, what do

325
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: you what your I guess takeaways from that? What what

326
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: would you say to somebody who says something like that

327
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: about Sterling Shepherd Well. I actually in that post that

328
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: I mentioned, when I was comparing Josh Doxton, Sterling Shepherd,

329
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: Corey Coleman and then like looking at their numbers versus

330
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: Lakwan Treadwell, who obviously plays in the SEC, I was

331
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: saying that, like, it's one thing I haven't like rec

332
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: or I haven't conciled, reconciled. That's the word I was

333
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 1: looking for. I haven't reconciled in my head is like

334
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: how to normalize the data between conferences because they are

335
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: so different. So I think it's something that you have

336
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 1: to keep in mind when you're just looking at raw numbers.

337
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: But that's why it's important when you're watching players to

338
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, look at their traits, look at what they're like,

339
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: try your best to isolate the player verse, what's going like,

340
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: what they're doing compared to the cornerback or whatever. And

341
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: I think that's why I do the work that I do.

342
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: So to me I think if you if you he

343
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: checks the boxes as an individual, then it's okay, okay,

344
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: um early grade on him. I mean I think he

345
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: is like, uh right now, I see him as like

346
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: a second round pick for sure, like a high second

347
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: round pick. The question is what is he gonna How

348
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 1: is he going to test at the combine? Because I

349
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: think he has a really good combine, has a good

350
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 1: senior performance. I could see him getting into that late

351
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: first round, but like that might just be me because

352
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: I don't know that everybody feels that way. Well, it's

353
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: also a wide receiver. It is a wide receiver in

354
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: this class. I think is like tread Well is at

355
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: the top for me clearly, But the rest of these

356
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: guys are going to be like strong second to third

357
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: round picks, guys that can be contributors. So I guess

358
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: that's the that's the the number one name that most

359
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: folks are familiar with this wide receiver position is tread

360
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: Well out of their old miss. But how does he compare?

361
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: I mean, Treadwell is great. I think that there are

362
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: people are gonna there's gonna be a lot of questions

363
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: about his long speed and like what is his forty

364
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: time gonna be. But to me, I think that he

365
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: does everything well. I mean, he's the standard of this

366
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: wide receiver class to me, and I think that he

367
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: he does like he does everything well. I know people

368
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: will focus on his plays in traffic and how he

369
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: makes contested catches and they'll kind of give him that

370
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 1: alshon Jeffrey comparison. Um, but I think that doesn't even

371
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: do him justice, like and and that's Jeffrey is a

372
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: good player, but Jeffreys, but I think that Treadwell has

373
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: potential to be even better. All right, let's talk about

374
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: these other guys a little bit too. Uh who do

375
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: you want to dive into? Carew? Yeah? Carew is interesting too.

376
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: He um Carew from Rutgers Leonte Carew. He he actually

377
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: just measured in uh moments ago. There's little If you're

378
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: on Twitter right now, you're gonna see some measurement draft raft.

379
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 1: Twitter is a buzz right now. So he just measured

380
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,159
Speaker 1: in I think at five eleven and to seventeen. So

381
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: he's that kind of like compact body style and you

382
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: could see that when he plays, like watching him run,

383
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: He's one of the ones that like I kind of

384
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,959
Speaker 1: had He sounds like a running back a little bit.

385
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: He's kind of built like a running back. And the

386
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: way he runs routes too, is like everything is really

387
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: like choppy compact, but he knows how to create separation

388
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: at the stemma routes and he might be the best

389
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: vertical at um among the bigger name guys. He's got

390
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: some Speed's watched him a little bit last night, and yeah,

391
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: he was. He was good at a lot of those

392
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: comebacks and stuff and using his feet to to get

393
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: away from guys. He was also he was pretty quick

394
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: off the line to which get a good release five eleven,

395
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: two seventeen, seventeen. Like that's kind of Randall Cob territory though.

396
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: That's a big boy for wide receiver. I know it's

397
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: it's interesting and you can see that in the way

398
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: that he plays too. Um, that's that's the guy that

399
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: he is, and I think that he is very much.

400
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 1: He's gonna be one of everybody's favorite sleepers in this

401
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: class for sure. Um. The question, he does have some

402
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: off the field issues, so there he missed two games

403
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: with the suspension. I think it was actually domestic violence

404
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: accusation got dropped. I think it was that that got

405
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: dropped and then he missed curfew curfew. Yeah, so there's

406
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 1: some stuff there that I think is going to push

407
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: him down the board for the draft, knicks and all

408
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. But but good, good player is

409
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: gonna like if he gets in the right system. He's

410
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: the type of guy that he is. His last his

411
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: last two years, he averaged nineteen point seven and twenty

412
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: point seven yards per catch. So that's what that's pretty good.

413
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: That's some bad and just yeah, I was gonna say,

414
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 1: don't forget it's at Rutgers. It's not. It's not like

415
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 1: he has a potential first round quarterback chucking him the football. Wow. Wow, Wow.

416
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 1: Two guys that are on this list and I'm not

417
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: necessarily too high on from the Big ten uh. Aaron

418
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: Burbridge from Michigan. Braxton Miller from Ohio State. Your takeaways,

419
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon, Yeah, Bourbage, I think is a really like

420
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: I could see him being like a solid contributor UM.

421
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: And I've only for for for for for clarity's sake,

422
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 1: I've only done two games on him, so I still

423
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 1: need a lot more work to do. UM. But to me,

424
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 1: he definitely seems like a real solid guy. Didn't break

425
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: out until his senior year at Michigan State really was

426
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: just kind of a guy and then he became Connor

427
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: Cook's leading receiver this year. But but he's an interesting

428
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: player to watch, probably in the later rounds now. Braxon

429
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: Miller is interesting because he's a really big name. You know,

430
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: he started out a quarterbackack and then moved to Actually,

431
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: I found a really funny tweet of mine last night

432
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: that I because I was just looking for like old

433
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: like if I had ever. You know, sometimes I go

434
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: back and searching my old tweets, like what did I

435
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: think about a player at this point? And I found

436
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: this really funny tweet from two thousand and four team

437
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: my girlfriend not girlfriend now, uh just texted me, I

438
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: hope you didn't draft Brax the Miller and Darnell Docket

439
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: on your fantasy teams. God bless her. She's try but close,

440
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: so close shouts shouts to you if you're listening, I

441
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: know you're not anyways. But so I think he was

442
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: that like that was when he was a quarterback was

443
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: back then. And now he's playing kind of like almost

444
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: like a Percy Harvin wide receiver sort of role. But

445
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: he is like he's a special athlete, like he was

446
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: absolutely eye popping in that Virginia Tech game to open

447
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 1: this season. Um, it's just gonna be like can he

448
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: run routes, which I'm not sure of yet. He definitely

449
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,720
Speaker 1: has the physical ability. But also there was one I

450
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 1: can't remember, I think it was against it was against

451
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: Rutgers that he had like a deep pass kind of

452
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: fall in and out of his hands and he eventually

453
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 1: corralled it. But he's still working through all that stuff.

454
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 1: It's just it's just gonna take some time. But but

455
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: he's the guy that could get on the field right

456
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: away and like some packages and make plays. Yeah, I

457
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: mean I was kind of surprised that. Um, I know

458
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: he's trying to make the transition, but it's it's not

459
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 1: that easy, you know what I mean. Look at We'll

460
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 1: look at Tarrell Prior, and I know the Prior started

461
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: later wide receiver spot, but I mean, you know, he's

462
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: Prior still that curiosity, kind of that oddity of you know,

463
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: what what are they gonna do with him? You know,

464
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: are they gonna put him on the field? So I

465
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 1: think I think that transition is gonna be Kudos to

466
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: Brexton Miller for starting it earlier than like going to

467
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: the draft and trying to do it late. Um, because

468
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: you know, like Denard Robinson, he didn't really even switch

469
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: until the draft. In your bowl, yeah, Senior Bowl, and

470
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: they started him at wide receiver and then finally I

471
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,919
Speaker 1: think they're like, yeah, actually let's try to running. And

472
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: he's he's made He's made a successful transition. But so

473
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: with Aaron Burbage too, Like I think you said Harmon,

474
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: he's he's gonna be a good contributor. Like when I

475
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: watched him, he didn't have a ton of eye popping plays,

476
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: but he did a handful of things pretty pretty well.

477
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: Like he he had good hands for like snaring like

478
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 1: low balls and things like that and making tough boundary catch.

479
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: Isn't a good body control, but it'd be interesting to

480
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: see if he has any like splash ear plays or

481
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: can showcase, um some athleticism because he wasn't that great

482
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: and I know contested catches is one of your metrics,

483
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: but he would get bodied a little bit on those.

484
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: The biggest guy. I just didn't I don't know. Yeah,

485
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,159
Speaker 1: it's like you said, nothing popped. Nothing popped when I

486
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: was watching I only watched a couple of his games

487
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: last night too quickly on on draft breakdown and h

488
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: everything Like I was ketching, my other players were catching

489
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: my eye more than he was when I was trying

490
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: to watch him so well. But which is a big

491
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: reason why I'm not. I'm just not terribly high on him. Um,

492
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: he had a he had a quarterback that not terribly accurate.

493
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: But that's okay. Um, And I yeah, it's like you said.

494
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. He just didn't to me,

495
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: just didn't make a lot of a lot of eye

496
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 1: popping plays. Uh. Will that translate in the NFL generally

497
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: doesn't so um Braxon Miller Man, gosh, what what an

498
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: interesting name. It's like you said, he's just got all

499
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: those measurables. What a great athlete he is. But it's

500
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: too bad that he Um, I guess decide. I think

501
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 1: he could have been an okay quarterback. Uh. He needs

502
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 1: to obviously hone his craft, but I don't know. It's

503
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: interesting to me that he just said to switch it

504
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,479
Speaker 1: up to wide receiver. But that's what he's doing. So

505
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: we shall see what he does in the Senior Bowl.

506
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: And you can see what he does in the Senior

507
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: Bowl at one thirty pm Central Time on NFL Network

508
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: Central Times, And well that was what they have on

509
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: the website. I like it. But before before we move

510
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: on to um, Gal har has mentioned it. I've mentioned

511
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: it at one point. Draft breakdown dot com is a

512
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 1: really good website to watch all their amazing quick cut

513

Speaker 1: ups of these guys. So definitely, if you want to

514
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: and honestly, if you want to be a good at fantasy,

515
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: especially if you are like to play in dynasty leagues,

516
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,960

519
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 1: to to to watch it and see guys that catch

520
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: your eye. Just just check it out for yourself and

521
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 1: and learn about these guys so that when, like, hey,

522
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: if one of these guys gets in a situation where

523
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,479
Speaker 1: they contribute as a rookie, you can pick them off

524
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: waivers before everybody else does, right, And I think you

525
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: know a lot of it too, is um. It's so funny,

526
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 1: you know. Draft breakdown is such a great website. YouTube

527
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 1: has got an amazing amount of cut ups. It's an

528
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 1: amazing amount of cut ups. On YouTube. All you do

529
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: is just type in the guy's name to and watch

530
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: tape all day long. Um, that's what you could do.

531
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: And and I think when you if you cross reference

532
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: that with where they're projected to go in the draft,

533
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: use some combine numbers, look and then you look at

534
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,959
Speaker 1: the system that they're going to go into. Yeah, you

535
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: use all that information for fantasy purposes. And there's no

536
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. It's all right. Let's dive into

537
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: the a f C North should away. Let's give a

538
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: quick post mortem on what used to be the most

539
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: rugged division in the NFL. Maybe not so much anymore.

540
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: They've been beset by injuries this year, There's no doubt

541
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: about it. How about the Cleveland Browns? A lot of changes,

542
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: Uh for the Cleveland Browns. What do we make of

543
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: what Cleveland has done the offseason and what do we

544
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: take away from the twenty fifteen campaign? Well, I think

545
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: in terms of what they've done this Obviouslyason Obviously the

546
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: big change starts at the top. There they are team analytics. Now, Um,

547
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: you know, bringing in Paul de Podesta, you know he's right,

548
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: you know, Slashy Brown the next the guy that comes in,

549
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: I mean, so they're obviously changing something, and I know

550
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: that it's easy to to look at them and laugh.

551
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: It's like a ha ha, Browns being the Browns. But

552
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 1: when you've been as bad as you've been for as

553
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: long as you've been, it makes sense to try something different.

554
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 1: So I think the key is going to be how

555
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: they use you know, these metrics, like which ones they value,

556
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: which ones they use, and how they build a team

557
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: from that um. But you know, I think, I think

558
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 1: we're going to see something different. I don't know if

559
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: it's gonna be better, but we'll see something different out

560
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 1: of Cleveland this year. I'm curious to see. I mean

561
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: because last year they didn't have a ton of fantasy

562
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: like stars off it other than you know, Gary Barnkowski. Finishing.

563
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: Finishing is the tight end too, let's go. What I'll

564
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,439
Speaker 1: be curious about is the backfield, especially too with that

565
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: split between Isaiah crow Oil and Duke Johnson, because down

566
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: the stretch Duke was looking like the more effective back

567
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,480
Speaker 1: all around, both like just straight running the ball and

568
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: obviously catching it out of the backfield. Persons forte and

569
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 1: they're not committed to kroll um financially in any aspect

570
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: at all. What else is gonna be curious to watch

571
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: is this passing game? Because one, Travis Benjamin's free agent,

572
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: and two if Josh Gordon gets reinstated, like whoever whoever

573
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: they have under center, Like god, oh, I want to

574
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 1: talk about Josh Gordon. I'm so excited for him to

575
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 1: be back. He's, for one, he's great, I mean, just

576
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 1: a phenomenal talent um and he's one of those wide

577
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: receivers when you watch him like it's easy, like he

578
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 1: just he just was born to do this. You don't

579
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: know what kind of shape he is in though I

580
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 1: know I know, but but he at least from by

581
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: all accounts, he has taken the whole thing seriously. He's

582
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: always tweeting about how much he wants to be out there.

583
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 1: So you know, of course I'm playing like it's a

584
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: total guesswork game. But at the same time, like we

585
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: know what this guy can do when he's on the field,

586
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: and if he's in shape and healthy and in shape

587
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: and healthy and in shape, big things are going to

588
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 1: happen again for Josh Gordon. And I don't know what

589
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 1: they're gonna do at at quarter back. Josh McCown I

590
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: thought was a stable presidence in the backfield. I thought

591
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,439
Speaker 1: he was okay. Um, but you know he wants to

592
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 1: come back after all those injuries again. Or if Hugh

593
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: Jackson gets his guy at the top of the draft

594
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: because he's got the second overall pick. It's very good point,

595
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: um and it and it does look like they're gonna

596
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 1: be taking a quarterback there. I'd I'd be shocked if

597
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 1: they don't, which means the Johnny Football era there short lived,

598
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: uh and probably gonna be over, I would imagine. But yeah,

599
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 1: I mean in the running back position, I think Duke

600
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: Johnson is such an interesting name. I don't know what's

601
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: gonna have happened with Travis Benjamin. But what happens with

602
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: with Gary Barnett? Is he a one year wonder? That's

603
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: where I'm leaning right now. I mean, I don't think

604
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: he completely disappears. I don't think he totally vantishes. But

605
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: you know, look, I know Michael Fabiana likes to say,

606
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: be where the magical season. I have a feeling this

607
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: was the magical season for a you know, thirty plus

608
00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 1: year old tight end that nobody had ever heard of

609
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 1: until about week three. Yeah, I mean I think that

610
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: he is still gonna be like a usable asset. I don't.

611
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: I would be like you said, I would be surprised

612
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: if he's the tight end too. Again, but I don't

613
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: think he's gonna completely go away. They did extend him

614
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 1: rather quickly, you know. I think they like him there.

615
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: They especially if Benjamin leaves, they won't have a number

616
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: two receiver across all pro Josh Gordon um and Yeah,

617
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: so I think that he will still be a valuable player.

618
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: So late round pick maybe is your tight end. Yeah,

619
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't go I wouldn't go too crazy neither. Well,

620
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 1: what are we talking? Are you saying double digit rounds?

621
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: Tent tentha round nine. I don't think he's gonna survive.

622
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. I would be surprised. I think people

623
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: will like kind of forget about him, and I don't.

624
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be overdrafted. He's I think he's

625
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: gonna be overdrafted over the likes of like a Tyler

626
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: Eiffert and Delaney Walker and Travis Kelsey. I think all

627
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: those guys will go before him. Well, all right, Gary

628
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: barn Is, Travis Kelsey, I'd take I'd take Kelsey next year, anybody, Yeah,

629
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: anybody going on the Barne train. I'd probably still take

630
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,959
Speaker 1: Kelsey the most lukewarm response ever. I mean it's kind

631
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 1: that's kind of how I feel about it too. Like

632
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: I'll take Bartage, I'll take Barnage in that scenario because

633
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: because I'll tell you this, I think the draft price

634
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: for Kelsey will also be much higher. I think I

635
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: think if we're projecting out for for next year's draft,

636
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be gronk uh going super super early, girls

637
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: fairly early. Um. I mean, here's the thing. I would

638
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: take Delaney Walker ahead of both those guys, bart Barnage

639
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: and Kelsey. Yeah. Agree. I think Delaney Walker had of

640
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 1: both of them. He was the tight end two in

641
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: PPR league. Yeah, yeah, he was great. I like it.

642
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: Don't don't sleep on him just because he's a Titan. Yeah.

643
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: Well he's got Marcus Mario, so that's not bad. I'll

644
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: take it. I'll take it. And and it's like you

645
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: guys said, I think he will. You we want to

646
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 1: talk about forgotten man. I think he will be the

647
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: forgotten man I'll come come draft time. Um, but that's okay,

648
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: So there you go. How about the Baltimore Ravens. You

649
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: had Joe Flacco there, you had Buck Allen, you had

650
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: the injuries on this team though, Like as I was

651
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: putting their top quarterback, their top running back, their top

652
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: wide receiver, their top two tight ends at times, Steve

653
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: Smith is coming back. So that's interesting. Yeah, yeah, this

654
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: is actually I was. I was riding up Joe Flacco's

655
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: like two thousand sixteen projections early for our draft and

656
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: real quick forgot their number one overall pick two pairman. Yeah,

657
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: So I mean it's actually an interesting wide receiver corps.

658
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 1: Like if it all hits right Steve Smith, camar that's that.

659
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean that is interesting at least, like because I

660
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: think Camar Akin proved himself at least, like at worst

661
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: as a solid number three receiver. We are guy Matt Frames,

662
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: Where's where's the franchise? I know he needs to be

663
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: here for this one. I think while we're talking about Akin,

664
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: he's a restricted free agent. Is that means he'll be back? Yeah?

665
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 1: He should, he should. He should be back. Restricted free

666
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: agent means he's gonna be back. Um, but so he's

667
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: at least a solid three. I think if they get

668
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: something out of Steve Smith and Brashad Perriman. That's pretty interestingman,

669
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: is that guy who's supposed to stretch that field. Camar

670
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: Aikin can can work that ten to fifteen yard area,

671
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: and Steve Smith can do a little bit of everything.

672
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: I agree, areath you when you look at that trio.

673
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: It's not bad, it's just all you know, It's like

674
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: it's all health questions. I mean, Perryman has taken exactly

675
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: zero NFL snaps, right, Steve Smith is is thirty six

676
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: six now thirty seven maybe even yeah, he might have

677
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: already seven this year and coming off a torn achilles.

678
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean, he's my favorite player. Ever, I don't I

679
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: don't doubt the guy at all, but I mean this

680
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: is there are some question marks, but like I said,

681
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: at its peak, I think this could be interesting. And

682
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: they have two talented tight ends as well. We didn't

683
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: talk about your boy Crockett Gilmore, bro Crocket Gilmore and

684
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: uh that Max Williams was starting to play a lot

685
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: more at the end, and like tight ends, his rookies

686
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: never do anything. So I would be I know, I

687
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: love Crokey Gilmore for this year, but I would probably

688
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: be more leaning towards more excited about Yeah, alright, they

689
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: got an interesting um one to punch there at running

690
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: back as well. Uh in regards to just before set

691
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: and Buck Allen, But this is this is gonna be

692
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: an interesting team. This is gonna be interesting. We don't

693
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: know what this team is gonna look like at all.

694
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 1: In my favorite saying that one thing that I thought,

695
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: like just off the top of my head as I

696
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: was looking at this, like I could see it being

697
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: kind of a slow start, like because Flacco is also

698
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 1: coming off of major injury, and then like around week six,

699
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: these guys all start to kind of click it once

700
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: and then like I'm gonna be if it all goes

701
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: the way I'm thinking, like I'm gonna be buying Ravens

702
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: mid season like crazy, and I'll throw a few darts.

703
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: This is a team that people are gonna sleep on

704
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:23,959
Speaker 1: a lot because, like you look at it, their highest

705
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: performer was Crockett Gilmore at tight end twenty four at

706
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: their positions, so like people are gonna sleep on this team.

707
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: I will throw a few darts late in rounds because

708
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: they're all gonna be coming off of injuries and stuff

709
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: and try and bank them, or like you said, Harmon

710
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: scoop them up mid season, because let's not forget this

711
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: is a well coached team with a good coordinator too.

712
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: That's gonna just have a huge influx of talent, both

713
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: coming back from injuries and probably the draft too, So

714
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: that's it could all come crumbling down. But it seems

715
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: to be going back towards the situation where there could

716
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: be some fantasy success here. I don't see a lot

717
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: of holes offensively. I mean I don't see a lot

718
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 1: of explosion either, Like there's not like there's not a

719
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 1: guy that on here that's like new Copkins or something.

720
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: But you know, I don't see a lot of holes.

721
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,280
Speaker 1: They've got solid running backs, they've got a solid quarterback,

722
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: solid wide receiver, solitat end. And I think that's the thing.

723
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the Ravens aren't gonna be the roster you

724
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 1: go to to get your frontline fantasy guys. But if

725
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: you're looking for good role players, you're looking for an

726
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 1: RB two, if you're looking for a flex option or

727
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: somebody you can you know, plug in when the matchup

728
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: is right, then I think the Ravens are your team.

729
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 1: There you go. How about the Cincinnati Bengals, Uh, Andy

730
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 1: Dalton when he was healthy, was on fire. Somehow someway

731
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, Jeremy Hill, who was just a conundrum.

732
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: Geo Bernard was there as well. Um and A J. Green.

733
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: I thought he performed admirably this season. And then there's

734
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: Tyler Eifford who was just a touchdown catching machine. Um.

735
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: Takeaways from the Bengals, Marcus Grant Um. You know they

736
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,000
Speaker 1: were good, but I felt like they left us wanting more.

737
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 1: I guess it is the best way to describe it.

738
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,439
Speaker 1: I mean, Andy Dalton had a fantastic sea and until

739
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 1: he got hurt. You know. A J. Green was very

740
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: much up and down this year, and I think for

741
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: a lot of people who drafted him, you know, spent

742
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 1: maybe a second round pick on him, they were left

743
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: wanting more. I think, you know, Tyler Effort was fantastic,

744
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: but yeah, he missed games with injury. Jeremy Hill, I'm

745
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: looking at his numbers now. Jeremy Hill was the number

746
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: four overall running back taken finished as the fourth best

747
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: fantasy running back. No, he's the four team RB fourteen.

748
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he's not the fourth. Uh Am I

749
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: looking at the wrong league here. I've got him at

750
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: number four behind Will Williams. No, no, he's no, no, no no,

751
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 1: because it was Davanta Adrian. Those might be available players

752
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: something somebody might have draw you know what, never might

753
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: take that back. You're correct, I was looking at he

754
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,839
Speaker 1: had because I had sort of by touchdowns by bad

755
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 1: human error there there's the human error here. Um, but

756
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,320
Speaker 1: you had eleven touchdowns, but he had few of the

757
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,720
Speaker 1: eight hundred rushing yards. That's amazing. That was, That's amazing

758
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: what that was? That was Jerome what do you what

759
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: do you do with that? I mean, Geo Bernard another

760
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,720
Speaker 1: guy who was really disappointed. It's like the the Bengal

761
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 1: offense to watch was very productive from a fantasy standpoint,

762
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: it was. It was it made you pull your hair

763
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 1: out right. To put a little context to the touchdown

764
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: dependency that you're kind of alluding to here. In games

765
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: where Jeremy Hill did not score a rushing touchdown, which

766
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 1: he had double digits, he averaged five point zero one

767
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: fantasy point. So that is a cataclysmic bottom hole of

768
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: a four. And also and he always like doubled up

769
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: his touchdowns. He a touchdown in one, two, three, four, five, six,

770
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: seven games, And that's including Week seventeen. So costco back,

771
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: costco back. You know what's crazy about Geo Jubernard two

772
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: is actually saw I wish I would have wrote this

773
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: down for the podcast, but um, he had one of

774
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 1: the highest numbers of red zone carries for a running back,

775
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: but like didn't score a touchdown. It was it was

776
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: insane because I mean, obviously I think they gave him

777
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: the ball like at the eighteen, which still counts as

778
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 1: a red zone carry. Did he not? Did he not

779
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: come out of the gates on fire and just kind

780
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 1: of peter off to the end there a little bit.

781
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: I mean, he was racking up more yardage and stuff

782
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: earlier on um, but then he was just kind of

783
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: always like in that eighty to ninety yard range and

784
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: then he did slow down a little bit at the end.

785
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: But A J Green, what do we make of his season?

786
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 1: And uh, where do you guys project him for? I

787
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,399
Speaker 1: think I think his season had it had its ups

788
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: and downs, but he he finished the season strong and

789
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 1: as we see, I mean he finished granted it, it

790
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: hurt a lot of people with his low weeks, but

791
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: he finished with almost yards and ten touchdowns. I will

792
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 1: definitely take a shot at A J. Green in that

793
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 1: second to third round range, depending on how the draft falls.

794
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: With wide receivers as you know, like a wide low

795
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: and wide receiver, one high and wide receiver too. Just

796
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: and just hope he evens out a little bit more,

797
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 1: because when he does go off, though, it's like game over,

798
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 1: you won your week. I mean, that's what That's what

799
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: was so interesting about UM stats in general, right, but

800
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: A J. Green in particular, it's like that dude had

801
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: hundred yards. If you were to follow him on a

802
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 1: week to week basis, there's no way in hell you

803
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: thought he had yards. Yeah. The the one thing I

804
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: talked about with this offense all year is that, like

805
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,319
Speaker 1: they have so many talented players, they have these two

806
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 1: guys we've already talked like, well, the all the running

807
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: backs who deserve touches, especially Geo Bernard's receiver out of

808
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 1: the backfield to Green is obviously number one receiver. They

809
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 1: have Tyler Eifford as a stud tight end. But then

810
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: they also have guys like Marvin Jones and Mohammed sannw

811
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: who command, especially Marvin Jones come in some targets too.

812
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: So that's why I think A J. Green was so

813
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: volatible because Andy Dalton's not like two coming. Yeah, can

814
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: make all tides rise in the offense on a week

815
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,839
Speaker 1: to week basis. However, so new and Jones are both

816
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: free agents, they're both gonna and I would be surprised

817
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: if they're both back. So maybe that opens up some

818
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: more targets. I would be shocked if they let go

819
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: of Marvin Jones. I wonder if Jackson makes a big

820
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: push to break Cleveland. That's that's I've heard. I've heard

821
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: that speculated a lot as well. Alright, I like it.

822
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: Uh a j Green next year? Though? Where where do

823
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: you guys project him? Is he a second round guy? Okay,

824
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: there you go. Just because there's so many good wide

825
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 1: receivers Pittsburgh Steelers speaking of good wide receivers, Uh, this

826
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 1: offense watch out. I mean, it was just unbelievable what

827
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: these guys were putting up on a week to week basis.

828
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown has a legit shot, a legit case to

829
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: be made that he should be the number one overall

830
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: pick even as standard drafts next year. I you know,

831
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: Adam Rank and I had debated this, uh for NFL

832
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: now as to who should be the number one the

833
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: one point oh one next year, and uh, and he

834
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: took Antonio Brown. He made a pretty convincing argument because

835
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 1: you know, again you talk about those safe floors. Antonio

836
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: Brown's right there, He's right there. Um, and I think

837
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are gonna be gun

838
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 1: shy um next year in regards to running backs because

839
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: of the injuries uh this year. Um. Despite that, I

840
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: made a pretty strong I made a uh my case

841
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: to to to say that David Johnson, if I had

842
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: the number one overall pick, I'm gonna take David. I

843
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: love you so much. I know Harmon wanted to kiss

844
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: you on the mouth. Look, look, I know it's insane

845
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,439
Speaker 1: and people people are on Twitter. We're saying you're you're nuts.

846
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,399
Speaker 1: That's who is David Johnson. I get it. But here's

847
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: saying when you have the number one overall pick, you're

848
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: not getting value. Guys, You're not gonna get value. So

849
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: I get it, David Johnson. If I were to do

850
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 1: just pre draft rankings, David Johnson's like, I don't know,

851
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 1: like six or seven, okay, but like I'm not gonna

852
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: get him at six or seven, right, I gotta get

853
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: him if I'm gonna ge him. I gotta get him

854
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 1: at one. You gotta go get your guy, all right,

855
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: Go get your guy, Go get your guy. Uh what

856
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 1: do we take away from the Pittsburgh Uh? Well where

857
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,319
Speaker 1: is You're going to the Baltimore Ravens to get kind

858
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: of your number two guys running backs, wide receivers, etcetera.

859
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: You're getting your ones in Pittsburgh. You know you're getting

860
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 1: at Tonio Brow, You're getting you know, Leve Bell, You're

861
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: you know you're getting even that Martavis Bryant has. You know,

862
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: he may come off the board drafted as a wide

863
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,799
Speaker 1: receivers too, but he will give you wide receiver one

864
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: potential on the way to wait. Yeah, so you know

865
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 1: that that is Yeah, it's funny because you know, obviously

866
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: these Steelers traditionally have been known for defense. Now they

867
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: are an offensive juggernaut. I mean, when when all those

868
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 1: guys are there, when Roethlisberger and and either it was

869
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 1: Williams or Bell, Brown, Bryant, all those guys, they were

870
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: a juggernaut. They were fantasy gold. Hey. Speaking of number

871
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: one overall picks um, Michael Fabiana has been preaching lev

872
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: Bell as the number one overall pick um do you

873
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: guys agree with that. Here's the thing for me, because

874
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 1: of the way how well d'angela Williams played, and and

875
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: with the uh injury concerns surrounding Levian Bell. Um, I

876
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: really think that there's gonna be some question marks as

877
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: to whether or not the Steelers use a more of

878
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 1: a committee approach moving forward. Yeah, we talked about this,

879
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 1: I think with a week or two ago. Yeah, week

880
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: or two ago with like Fitzgerald Tussan is, Like why

881
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,240
Speaker 1: he was a pretty decent DFS player in the playoffs

882
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 1: is because Mike Tomlin has historically always preferred just one

883
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,919
Speaker 1: running back. And I think the Steelers running back, whether

884
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: like in games where Williams or Bell finished, they average

885
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: like of the snap. So like, even when Bell came

886
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: back and Williams had clearly proved himself to be an asset,

887
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: they really didn't use him much at all. Um. I

888
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: think I think Bell will still be the guy. Williams

889
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: is definitely just probably like the best insurance policy out there,

890
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: and if Bell gets hurt again, Williams, Williams will be

891
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 1: fresh to then take that quote on himself. It's not

892
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: forget that Williams had an injury at the end of

893
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,919
Speaker 1: the year not as serious as Bells, and he's gonna

894
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 1: be what thirty two three? I think you guys trust

895
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 1: in love Bell as being a you know, look, he's

896
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 1: gonna be one of the first five picks off the board.

897
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: Do you trust him there? Right now? I could I

898
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 1: do what? I also? What else I like about taking

899
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: a running back like love Bal instead of like Antonio

900
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,760
Speaker 1: Brown is uh. I'm sure Rank had some good points,

901
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 1: But if like injuries are not just limited to the

902
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: running back position, If Roethlisberger gets injured again, that murdered

903
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: rounds fantasy value. Like when when Landry Jones and uh,

904
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,880
Speaker 1: Michael Vick were in there, like Brown, Brown disappeared, whereas

905
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: like the running back, running back is a little bit

906
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,359
Speaker 1: more quarterback proof the quarterback gets injured. So I think

907
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: that's the safety there of taking one of those guys,

908
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,839
Speaker 1: because left Bell still produced when Mike Vick was in there,

909
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: Guys like that year Aaron Rodgers broke his collarbone, Eddie

910
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 1: Lacy still produced without him. Hadrian Peterson has been producing

911
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: without a quarterback because their career. So there's there's that.

912
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: That's that's the safety I feel then with taking one

913
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: of those guys as opposed to a wide receiver one

914
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: oh one. Al Right, where do you take a guy

915
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 1: like Mark Davis Bryant. I was gonna say, says, because

916
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 1: it's one of his boys. The season was so weird

917
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: form Martavis because we saw some of the flashes and

918
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: then he kind of got frustratingly, you know, Marcus Wheaton

919
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks and so so Harmon, what

920
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: do you think where did he finish? Where whide receiver?

921
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 1: Thirty three overall? But remember he did miss the first

922
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 1: four games. He finished fifteenth in points per game play.

923
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: He actually missed the first five games? Correct? He injured?

924
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,399
Speaker 1: How did injury coming off the suspension? That's right? Um,

925
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean I am. I said I love you James

926
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: because of the David Johnson thing because I'm just such

927
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: a sucker for upside and potential, just completely like willing

928
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: to get totally intoxicated on these guys. And uh, Mark

929
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,359
Speaker 1: Tavis Bryant like is the summation of that. He had

930
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: an average depth of target of fifteen point two for

931
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: the entire season per Pro Football Focus. But we saw

932
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: that go up and down like at different points in

933
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,439
Speaker 1: his rookie year, it was like at nineteen and then

934
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: early in the season it was at a nineteen range two,

935
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: which is, you know, almost like you're an exclusive vertical player. However,

936
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 1: then we saw for a stretch there like he was

937
00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: kind of used closer to the line of scrimmage. Um,

938
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 1: people think he has like drop issues, but when the

939
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 1: guys being asked to make like consistently the most difficult

940
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: catches to make in the league, you know, I don't

941
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: really I don't really consider that big of a deal. Um,

942
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 1: he does have some areas he needs to work out,

943
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: but he can win you your week, like on one play.

944
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,399
Speaker 1: And I mean, he's gonna be popular. People are gonna

945
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 1: fight over him, and I'm going to be one of

946
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: the ones leaving the fight. All right, So where are

947
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 1: you going to start being comfortable taking him? Fifth round?

948
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 1: Fourth round? I would go forth I was taking Maybe

949
00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 1: I'm an idiot, No I'm not, but I was taking

950
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: him like in the fourth to fifth round of draft

951
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, I was gonna say. That's why I

952
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 1: was for the suspension. That's why I was curious about

953
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:22,959
Speaker 1: how where his stock was going to go is because

954
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,399
Speaker 1: that was kind of his area. Last year and then

955
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: like he's still kind of like hit it, I guess.

956
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting to see if people like

957
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: allow these last few weeks where he was kind of

958
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,399
Speaker 1: quieter to cloud their judgment of what kind of player

959
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,440
Speaker 1: he actually is. What's the thing of thing that people

960
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: always forget to when you're looking at like final fantasy numbers,

961
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: Like he did play two more games in the playoffs

962
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 1: where he stepped up, especially in that Denver game. Man

963
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,320
Speaker 1: like they you know, Ben obviously challenged him at the

964
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: beginning of the playoffs and then Mark Tavis Bryant responded

965
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 1: like by being the number one receiver for the for

966
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: the Steelers against the Broncos with Brown out. So I

967
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: think that's an even more data point. All right, So man,

968
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 1: harms gonna take him the fourth MG, where are you

969
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 1: taking him? Fifth? Six? No? I mean I don't see

970
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: him lasting that long. I mean I think I think

971
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: you're getting him. You probably are getting him in the

972
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 1: fourth round just because well because the hype is gonna

973
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 1: be there. I mean, everybody sees the potential and you're

974
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 1: going to see like you're gonna see that flipping playoff catch,

975
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: you know, where he fount of the back of the ends,

976
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,239
Speaker 1: and you're gonna see a ton of That was not

977
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: a catch. I don't think it was a catch. It's

978
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:31,720
Speaker 1: not a catch. Um, human rules, not aliens. But but

979
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 1: no one knows what the rules are, so it was

980
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: a catch. Um, you know. But you're gonna see that.

981
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 1: You're gonna see the speed and the potential, and you're

982
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: gonna remember how good this stealer's offense is. And I

983
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: think he's going to come off the board in the

984
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 1: fourth round. I can't wait. I can't pay that price, man,

985
00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,839
Speaker 1: I can't wait to draft a fantasy team with David

986
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,760
Speaker 1: Johnson in the first round, Alan Robinson in the second round,

987
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: and then Josh Gordon in the third round. There you

988
00:46:53,200 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 1: go and get the fifth that let's crazy, but and

989
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: and that team will either like slaughter all souls or

990
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 1: crash and burn it. Hey, Ben Roethlisberger, we talked about

991
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 1: this being a tremendous offense. It starts with him, though

992
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 1: it really does start with him. The the offense struggled

993
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 1: when when he was when either a he struggled or

994
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: or he just wasn't out there. Um, where do you

995
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,879
Speaker 1: take Ben Roethlisberger? I love the potential that Big Ben

996
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 1: gives you on a week to week basis. Not I

997
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 1: know he put up a couple of horrendous games, but man,

998
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 1: when he carries you, he carries you. Yeah. I think

999
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: I think he's a good like one of those if

1000
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:36,959
Speaker 1: you're waiting on in a quarterback, because he probably won't

1001
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 1: still be one of the first ones off the board,

1002
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: but he should be one of those first ones probably

1003
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: off the board, and the weight on a quarterback run

1004
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 1: in the later rounds. Whenever that starts, it would be

1005
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 1: a top five quarterback ticket. Yeah. I don't know how

1006
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: long he can I don't know if you're waiting on quarterback,

1007
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: I don't think Ben roethlisb I mean not like super late.

1008
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm not saying like you wait till round twelve to

1009
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: get him, got it now? I think he's off the

1010
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,319
Speaker 1: board by round eight. Yeah, Yeah, that's what I was

1011
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 1: gonna too rich for my blood to take a quarterback hash.

1012
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 1: I think I think he'll be gone by round six.

1013
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 1: Could be a big name guy, big name team. Uh.

1014
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,720
Speaker 1: You know, obviously a lot of fantasy drafts are are regional.

1015
00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 1: You know, if you have a fantasy drafted Boston, you

1016
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: know Patriots are flying off the boardway early. I was

1017
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: part of a I was part of a league that

1018
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 1: was primarily based in Seattle. Russell Wilson went in the

1019
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:23,280
Speaker 1: first round, um, just because they wanted to get there. Again,

1020
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: your guy not truck exactly. So uh, you know, drafts

1021
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 1: are regional, so I mean, obviously if you're in the

1022
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh area, he's gonna be Ben roethlisb be gone super quick.

1023
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,880
Speaker 1: But but yeah, out on the West coast even, I

1024
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 1: mean there's a lot of studio fans everywhere, so yeah,

1025
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 1: it's interesting. Doesn't mean now in Los Angeles that you know,

1026
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,239
Speaker 1: Case Keendom's gonna start coming off the board. Yeah, like

1027
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 1: the sixth round and drafts and if you want to

1028
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 1: win every game, all right, should be daft to get

1029
00:48:50,640 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 1: out of here. Deaths all right, Taylor Dap time we

1030
00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: shall start with the whiz kid from Wisconsin. What's up?

1031
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: A couple of things I saw? I was actually at

1032
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 1: the gym, so I had to go back and find

1033
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 1: it later. But E sixty on ESPN. I know it's

1034
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: like hearsay to talk about the other now, but they

1035
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 1: did on the sixty obviously, you know I always do

1036
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,480
Speaker 1: their different stories on stuff in sports, and they had

1037
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: a really cool feature that was following the main American

1038
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,800
Speaker 1: team in the Big Dota to International Video Game Circuit

1039
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: back in August. This was It's a video game competition

1040
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,760
Speaker 1: they had at the Key Arena in Seattle, total prize

1041
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 1: pool of over eighteen million dollars for her video game

1042
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: and this was the first time this American team had

1043
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 1: ever won. And they had a documentary following them all

1044
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: beforehand and through the tournament and stuff that they won.

1045
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 1: So that was a pretty cool feature. And if you

1046
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,240
Speaker 1: want to see like what the future of like sports

1047
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: and stuff is, like the sports is coming up, like

1048
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,239
Speaker 1: eighteen million dollars for playing video games. Wouldn't say it's

1049
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 1: the future of sports. Not. I don't mean that's not

1050
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 1: it's not now. Hold on, I didn't mean that it's

1051
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 1: like all sports, but like it is going to come

1052
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: into the fray. Like if you if you told somebody

1053
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 1: in the fifties, like, man, this soccer thing, people are

1054
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: gonna watch it, they would have said the same thing.

1055
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:09,719
Speaker 1: They're like, Okay, here's thing. I'll tell you this. My

1056
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 1: my brother works for a prominent um video game company.

1057
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 1: UM I love video games. Um, I am a good

1058
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 1: Asian male. I love video games. Um. But no but

1059
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: to say and like I get, ESPN is making a

1060
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: humongous push to tap into, um the video games. Yeah,

1061
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,080

Speaker 1: on Twitter sprouting his flat earth theories. He got checked

1166
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:41,239
Speaker 1: on Twitter by Neil de Grasse Tyson. Of course. He's

1167
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,400
Speaker 1: responded though with a dis track, which I think might

1168
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: be the first ever distract written about a scientist. Dude,

1169
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:49,320

00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 1: this morning, so I can't wait to listen to anyway.

1172
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 1: Back to your your I'm gonna daily DAP a dis

1173
00:55:56,400 --> 00:56:00,400
Speaker 1: track to Neil Degrassi. That's a go BLB Neil de

1174
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: Grasty not the high school from Canada or whatever whatever.

1175
00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,759
Speaker 1: Neil de grass Tyson, Yeah sure, whatever, whatever his name is.

1176
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:07,439
Speaker 1: Do you have a point you were going to finish

1177
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 1: me now now I'm just now I'm just lost. Um

1178
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 1: Anti dap for for Destiny being only available online but

1179
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,280
Speaker 1: daft to the actual game though, it's a it's a

1180
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 1: very smooth shooter. I know, it's the same guys that

1181
00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:22,359
Speaker 1: made Halo, the original Halo, so it's a very very

1182
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 1: smooth game. It's just there's just it's almost there. And

1183
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of what's frustrating about the game.

1184
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 1: It's it's almost a great game and it just ends

1185
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,239
Speaker 1: up being a yeah, I got it okay game last

1186
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,799
Speaker 1: year when it came out, but I honestly played it

1187
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 1: for like an hour and then the season came and

1188
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:42,240
Speaker 1: I was like, well that was fun, So I honestly

1189
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: got haven't put it back in since. But uh, I

1190
00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:47,560
Speaker 1: felt similarly in my like two hours that I played it. Yeah,

1191
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: it's a it's a good, solid game, but I just

1192
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: felt like it could have been great. So anyway, so

1193
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 1: there you go. Um boy, I'm gonna I can't wait
