You know, no offense to the housewives 36 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: in the car Dashians, but I'll take the shield all day. Yeah. 37 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: To me, the two months between the start of the 38 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: NFL Combine and the end of the NFL Draft are 39 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: my favorite two months of the year because it's all 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 1: just about what could happen or Okay, this guy's now here? 41 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: What could happen? Now? What does this mean? Right? And 42 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: they're they're just every year there's there are earth shattering 43 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: moves that you don't see coming. You don't see Tyree 44 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: Hill getting traded or Davante Adams getting traded m Wilson. Right, 45 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 1: do we see Aaron Rodgers get traded this week? Do 46 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: we see Lamar Jackson get traded this week? Do we 47 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: see the Ravens use the non exclusive franchise tag and 48 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: a team just be like, Yeah, you're your two first 49 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: round picks for Lamar? Sounds great, Let's sign them up. 50 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: Like there's so much that can happen. The next time 51 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: we convene here a week from today, we'll be into 52 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: the negotiating period of free agency, and the landscape of 53 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: the NFL is going to look completely different than it 54 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: does today very quickly. Because there's always something every year. 55 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: I kind of have to refresh myself on. Can you explain, 56 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: like just in quick terms, the franchise tag and the 57 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: ramifications yet? Well, I mean it's not crash course for dummies, 58 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,119 Speaker 1: not super relevant to us. Here are the colts because 59 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: we haven't used it since tagging Pat McAfee a decade ago. 60 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 1: The franchise tag allows teams to essentially control for one 61 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: years someone who's going to be an unrestricted free agent 62 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: their contract is expiring. The exclusive versus non exclusive is 63 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: something you're going to hear a lot about today whenever 64 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: this podcast comes out, because how it relates to Lamar Jackson. 65 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: Maybe Daniel Jones will see the exclusive franchise tag means 66 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: no team can negotiate with that player. So if you 67 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: put the exclusive tag on Lamar Jackson, if the Ravens 68 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: do that, no other team can negotiate with Lamar Jackson. 69 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: But it's about fourteen million dollars more expensive to use 70 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: that on a quarterback. If the Ravens use the non 71 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: exclusive tag, I think it's about thirty two million, you 72 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: can sign that player to an offer sheet, and if 73 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: the team that plays the tag on that player. So 74 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: if the Ravens say, all right, you signed Lamar Jackson, 75 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: do a four year, fully guaranteed contract, we don't want 76 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: to match it, the team that's signed him to that 77 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: offer sheet then gets Lamar Jackson and sends two first 78 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: round picks to the Baltimore Ravens. And it was you 79 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: have until June to negotiate mid July. JU think it's 80 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: like middle of July. I. Meanwhile, Daniel Daniel Jones is 81 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: trying to command forty million a year, like the quarterback 82 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: market that has been set because of the Deshaun Watson 83 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: and what are you gonna do here? Are you gonna 84 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: not pay it? Right right? The fear of the quarterback unknown. 85 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: That's what all these guys have leverage. It's a good 86 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: it's a good time to be looking at rookie quarterback contracts. 87 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 1: Good segue right there. That's what we're all talking about today. 88 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: This is the Official Colts Podcast, brought to you by 89 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: Win Bett.

We'll also here from NFL Draft insider 97 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: Charles Davis on the show today. He sat down with 98 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: us at the combine last week, had a really good 99 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: conversation with Charles, So we'll hear that coming up in 100 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: just a bit. But let's talk about those coaching moves again. 101 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: The Colts have announced the following additions to the coaching staff. 102 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: Jim Bob Cooter offensive coordinator t J. Ingalls, assistant to 103 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: the head coach, Tom Mannings, tight end coach, Brian Mason 104 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: special teams coordinator.

Tony Sperrano Junior is in 106 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: as the offensive line coach. Cam Turner He's gonna guide 107 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks, and Chris Watt will be the assistant offensive 108 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: line coach to Sperrano Junior. And additionally, Brent Jackson has 109 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: and elevated to defensive quality control coach. Richard Smith he 110 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: was on the staff last year under Gus Bradley. He's 111 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: going to be the linebackers coach, but also take on 112 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: the title of run game coordinator. Brian Bratton will be 113 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: the offensive quality control with a focus on wide receivers. 114 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,239 Speaker 1: So we talked about Jim Bob Cooter in the past. 115 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: Tom Manning, we've talked about Tony Sperrano Junior on prior shows. 116 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: We have not talked about Cam Turner. He spent the 117 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: last couple of years in Arizona, adding the title of 118 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: co passing game coordinator last year. He helped guy the 119 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: early years of Kyler Murray as he adapted to the NFL. 120 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: Before that, though, got to start in the NFL as 121 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: a position coach three years in Carolina, the first two 122 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: as assistant wide receivers coach, the last one as assistant 123 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 1: quarterbacks coach for a Panther's team that had Cam Newton 124 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 1: on the team at the time. He is the nephew 125 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: of Norv Turner, that's the coaching mentor of Shane Steikeen, 126 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: So that might be the connection there. JJ. So let's 127 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: talk about Turner. How much of his work with mobile 128 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: dynamic quarterbacks. How much did that influence steiken to potentially 129 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: make this higher. Yeah, that's a good question, you know, 130 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: as you're evaluating quarterback coach that you know, I think 131 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people would agree that's probably one of 132 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: the most important positions to get right on this coaching 133 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: staff to because that guy's probably going to be developing 134 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: a top picked quarterback the experience that Cam Turner has 135 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: with two former number one overall pick some Cam Newton 136 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: and Kyler Murray, two guys who you know, they're different players. 137 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: Cam Newton is a big dude, whereas Kyler Murray more slight. 138 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: I always think it's funny at this time of year 139 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: when you can read into it and you can say, well, 140 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: Cam Turner coached Cam Newton, so well, it must mean 141 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: the culture gonna go get Anthony Richardson, who's like, you know, 142 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: six three, two forty four or whatever. He's Cam Newton size. 143 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm by hero. But then if you look at it 144 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: the other way, it's like, well, Cam Turner was with 145 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, well, maybe that means they could go get 146 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: Bryce Young, who weighed in like the exact same as 147 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray did at the end of Combine. All this 148 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: stuff is just it's silly season for that. There's a 149 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: lot more reading between the lines on these things than 150 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: I think you need to do. Camp Turner's just a 151 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: good coach, and that's why the Colts went hired him. 152 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about special teams. Larah Brian Mason 153 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: is in the fold. As we said, he's a Hoosier. 154 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: He's from Zionsville, so he grew up about twenty twenty 155 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: five minutes away from where we're sitting here chatting right now. 156 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: He's special teams coordinator, replacing Bubba Ventrone. We know he 157 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: left to join the Brown staff. He's making that big 158 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: jump though, making the jump to the NFL for the 159 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: first time. Fifteen year guy at the collegiate level, last 160 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: five in charge of the special teams units at Cincinnati, 161 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 1: spent last year at Notre Dame. So one year with 162 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: the Irish, and they had a terrific season on special teams. 163 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: They blocked seven punts after they blocked only six in 164 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: the previous ten seasons. So he was dialing up a 165 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: lot of creativity, you know, in the third phase of 166 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: the game, if you will. So, what do you make 167 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 1: of Mason in the fold with the Colts after the 168 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: Colts lost a Bubba ventron ow, you know, kind of 169 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: going to that pool of the a little bit inexperience there, 170 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: but a guy that obviously has a lot of upside 171 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 1: and a lot of thirst for the job. Well, it 172 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: brings in a great dynamic because he has such a 173 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: strong foundation within that special teams unit of the guys 174 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: that he will inherit within that group, and then also 175 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 1: being able to retain Joe Hastings as the assistant Special 176 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: Teams coordinator in there, so there will be continuity, but 177 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: it will be interesting to see how he can develop 178 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: that group and bring something else in that's a little 179 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: bit different from what we've been used to seeing. It's 180 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: been in a group we've talked over and over about 181 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: the consistency of production in every level of special teams 182 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: under Intron. Well, what is something that you could implement differently? 183 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 1: We know a lot of things where you're seeing, you know, 184 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: Rick and Jury will talk about, you know, the NCAA 185 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: offenses and how we're seeing more of the college game 186 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: implemented now in the NFL. What are those elements that 187 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: within special teams that we have seen become more prominent 188 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: and more productive within the college game that he's going 189 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: to bring in an implement from that success that he 190 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: had at Notre Dame. And one of the things I 191 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: like about the Stike and hires in general is that 192 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 1: they've been pretty diverse. It hasn't just been one formula 193 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: or one track record that's led him to a particular guy. 194 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: It's been very broad. It's been extensive in terms of 195 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: filling in the positions that he has had to fill. 196 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: Didn't have to do a lot of work on the 197 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: defensive side because of retaining Gus Bradley and that side, 198 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: so it allowed him to hone in on these other 199 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: areas and really make sure he's getting the right fit. 200 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: So I would like, how interesting this is going to 201 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: be in terms of meshing a lot of different you know, 202 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: philosophies and mentalities, and especially for that Special Teams group, 203 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: which has had such a high bar to consistently level 204 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: up too. Yeah. I was texting with my friend Pete Sampson, 205 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: his cover Notre Dame for twenty years, about Brian Mason, 206 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: and he said he's kind of like a mad scientist, 207 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: which I really like to hear. I like, my Special 208 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: Teams coordinator kind of have some like mad scientist vibes, 209 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: but he's nuts. Yeah, well, I mean you kind of 210 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: you kind of like Bubba kind of was a mad 211 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: scientist in some ways. It's a special niche like, Yeah, 212 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: Special Teams coordinators like are kind of cut from a 213 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: specific block, right, you know. And and the other thing 214 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: that that Pete told me when I was texting with him. 215 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: Is that he Brian Mason got notre dame starters to 216 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: play hard for him on special teams. Not just play 217 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: on special teams, but to play hard. Isaiah Fosky's looking 218 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: like probably a Day two pick at defensive end. He 219 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: was one of the most critical members of the punt 220 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: block unit that Brian Mason had. When Brian Mason halfway 221 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: through this season, yeah, you're gonna love this. Then halfway 222 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: through the season Brian Mason changed the name of how 223 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: we referred to the punt return unit to the punt 224 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: block unit. Love it. And then they went out and 225 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: blocked punts in five consecutive games. I mean, it's a 226 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: we ain't gonna return him, We're gonna stop him from happening. 227 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: But but his his philosophy is if you can affect 228 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: the punt too. If you block it, that's great, But 229 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: if you can affect the punter to where field position right, 230 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 1: you can essentially get that field position back. If the 231 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: guy shanks it because he's under pre or he doesn't 232 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: hit a clean punt, that ten yards of difference is 233 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: just as good as it returned. I love that philosophy. Yep, No, 234 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: doubt about a good stuff right there. Again, check out 235 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: Colts dot com or the Colts mobile app that has 236 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: the full list, the full rundown of the coaching additions 237 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: and the titles and the new responsibilities within the coaching staff. 238 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 1: So we ran over it briefly, but again Colts dot 239 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: com has all the information there for you as that 240 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: was released today Tuesday. As we sit here and tape 241 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: this right now on the official Colts podcast, let's talk 242 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: about the combine. Last week was a busy week for us. 243 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: Let's try to put a bow on it before we 244 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: talk about free agency coming up next week. Let's talk 245 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: about quarterbacks, Lara, what did we learn about the top 246 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the draft in terms of when they spoke 247 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: to the media, when they were at their respective press conferences, 248 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: at the podium and how much stock do the Colts 249 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: put on that part of the combine. We know because 250 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,199 Speaker 1: of hearing from Chris Ballard in his media availability and 251 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about the podium availability, but when he 252 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: went off to the side and had a scrum with 253 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: the local reporters, he was asked specifically about how what 254 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: are the things you're assessing or trying to really glean 255 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: from the combine, and you know, it's not so much 256 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: the throwing sessions and this nap because obviously some guys 257 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: don't throw. And he was talking about, you know, it's 258 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: routes on air, right, like we get more from diving 259 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: in digging in down the tape. There's been money of 260 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have aced that part of it that did 261 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: not have success. So he said he really pays attention 262 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: to how they engage with the media and how they 263 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 1: conduct themselves because you do get a great sense of 264 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: not only just a guy's personality, but his maturity, his poise, 265 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 1: how unflappable he is, which are all critical aspects when 266 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: you are looking at quarterback prospects. So I don't really 267 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: think that anyone drastically impacted one way or another. I 268 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: thought all of the guys, because of the majority of 269 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks who there was so much of a spotlight 270 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: on come major programs. They're used to having all of 271 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: that media attention, They're used to doing all those type 272 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: of things. It didn't probably skew yourself one way or another, 273 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: but most likely just reaffirmed what you were already thinking 274 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: and the grating that you had already done. And where 275 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: you've stood on certain guys. I'm saying just purely based 276 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: on those situations alone, because you've seen enough of your 277 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: Bryce Young's and your CJ. Strouds, and your steps and 278 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: Bennetts and all of those guys to kind of know 279 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: they're probably going to be pretty much who you thought 280 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: they were. So between the sessions at the podium, whether 281 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: that's from college football playoff situations, bowl games combine, and 282 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: then also what you're gathering from your scouts who were 283 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: on the campus sites, you already have a pretty good foundation, 284 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: a pretty good sample size of who you think somebody 285 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: is that might just kind of affirm one way or 286 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: another exactly what you were expecting. Because these guys are 287 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: doing such kind of a car wash of media where 288 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: they're going to podiums and they're going to NFL Network, 289 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: then they're sitting with se a sex sim or different 290 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: things that they're doing over the course, So how are 291 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: they conducting themselves? Start to finish? And then also I 292 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting because you're corralling these guys around 293 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: with one another, how do they engage with the other prospects? 294 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Do they keep to themselves? Are they joking around? Are 295 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: they jovial, are they a little more introverted? Those are 296 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: kind of interesting things that you can kind of learn 297 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: one way or another. That being said, I don't think 298 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: there's one guy that you know, catapulted himself to the 299 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: front or just completely dove off a cliff from his grading, 300 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: just purely based on the couple of days we had 301 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: the combine downtown. Yeah. I mean, if you if you 302 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: went into this combine thinking Anthony Richardson is a great athlete, 303 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: you came out of this combine thinking Anthony Richardson's a 304 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: great athlete. If you want end of this combine thinking 305 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: CEJ Stroud's very accurate when he throws from the pocket. 306 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: You left this combine thinking Cej Stroud's really accurate thrown 307 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: from the part. Oh, Bryce Young's really likable. Shock, we 308 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: knew that, right. So the thing that I wanted to 309 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: do when the quarterbacks talked on Friday was not necessarily 310 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: like go talk to them, because those press conferences are 311 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: two hundred deep and everyone's asking have you met with 312 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Like, I don't care about that, 313 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: But I did go and talk to a couple of 314 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: these guys teammates Cameron Latou's tight end from Alabama. He said, 315 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: Bryce Young just lived in the building. He was the 316 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: first guy in, last guy out. That type of mentality, 317 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: I think sometimes you take it for granted with these 318 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: top college quarterbacks, but you need that. That's something that 319 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: Shane Steikin has talked about with Jalen Hurts that he 320 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: has that mentality, that it factor that he's obsessed with 321 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: the game. Talking to Jackson Smith and Jigba about his 322 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: relationship with CJ Strout and just how demanding CJ could 323 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: be in certain aspects of hey, when I put the 324 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: ball here, I need you here. You know that relationship 325 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: of them being very close and very tight. I think 326 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: just kind of hearing about the quarterback wide receiver relationship 327 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: was interesting. Justin Shorter, or wide receiver from Florida, chatted 328 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: with him for a little bit just about how Anthony 329 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: Richardson made him a better receiver because he was a 330 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: guy who could you know, he's got straight line speed, 331 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: he can go down the field and Richardson was willing 332 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: to let it rip to him and then will any 333 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: of his Kentucky teammates at the combine. But a tight 334 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: end he played with at Penn State. Brenton Strange just 335 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,479 Speaker 1: talked about will Evis's freakish athleticism and talked about how 336 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: even when he was a backup at Penn State, he 337 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: could tell he had some good leadership qualities to him. So, 338 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: you know, just hearing those things, these are the things 339 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: that as you're doing this whole vetting process, like Lara mentioned, 340 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: like everything from start to finish of the day. But 341 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: you're also talking to teammates, trainers, you know, support staff, 342 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: anyone who came in contact with these guys over the 343 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: course of their college career. You want to talk to 344 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 1: them because this is a big decision for the course 345 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: of the franchise and you need to go into it 346 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: with as much information as possible. So you're constantly being 347 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: evaluated these guys every second they were in Indianapolis last week, 348 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: they were being evaluated by the Colts and by thirty 349 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: one other teams. In the end of the Times, No, 350 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: I agree with you, guys. I thought will Levis had 351 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 1: a bit of arrogance is not the right word, oh, 352 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: I get, but he had he had a touch of brashness. Yeah, 353 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 1: maybe if he was asking why are you throwing it? 354 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: But don't I don't knock him for that, because he's 355 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: trying to exude confidence and you want that. You'd rather 356 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: have that than someone who is timid or unsure of 357 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: themselves in front of the media. But I thought, yeah, 358 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: I thought he's also said it kind of playfully. Like 359 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: I think that the other thing is is when you 360 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: just read the words, you don't feel but context of 361 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: how it was said. So I feel like that it's 362 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 1: difficult because you see everyone taking tweets and and quoting, 363 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: you know, these are my role models. Thought it was 364 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: a little self deprecated too. It's like, yeah, I'm I 365 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: got this arm, let's go. Yeah, yeah, exactly. I think 366 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: that there's a few things that you saw tweeted out 367 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: they were a little bit taking out of context that 368 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: you really need to watch the video yea in order 369 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: for it to be properly understood. Yeah, I mean that's 370 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: life in general. That's why Twitter is such a terrible 371 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: it's a day, dangerous, dangerous follow us on Twitter. Tweet 372 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 1: deck opened in front of me right now because I'm 373 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: just like, give me the Lamar news. Yeah, But I 374 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: thought c J. Stroud he was especially good at the 375 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: podium talking about his athleticism and maybe regretting not using 376 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: that mobility more. And I thought, that's that's a pretty 377 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: wide statement right there. But all the quarterbacks I thought 378 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: did a nice job of answering the questions there on 379 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: Friday morning, Like you said, j J, there was you know, 380 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,239 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty two hundred people strong for all 381 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: the top quarterbacks when they talked simultaneously there. All right, 382 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: what did we learn about the top quarterbacks in regards 383 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 1: to their on field workouts? Lara? Any any takeaways from again, 384 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: routes versus air. Everybody's gonna look good in that context. 385 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: But did you glean anything from the top quarterbacks when 386 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: they were actually on the field spinning the rock? I 387 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: actually didn't watch any of them. Okay, I haven't watched 388 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: didn't watch a single bit of it. I basically I 389 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: just like kind of read everything after the fact. And 390 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: it was like all of Anthony Richardson's measurables were just 391 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: off the charts, you know, and well, what's all of 392 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: all of those types? Let's talk about that. Yeah. His 393 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: collective performance at the combine was a four three three 394 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: forty ten nine broad jump. His vertical leap is forty 395 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: and a half. All of these are records. Buy a 396 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: quarterback at the combine by relative athletics score, he actually 397 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: surpassed Cam Newton as the most athletic quarterback in the 398 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: history of the NFL Combine. So tell me about that performance. 399 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: Does that change how teams view him even though he 400 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: didn't play a football game? Not really. To me, that's isolated, 401 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: almost in a vacuum, because you can do all of 402 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: those things, like you can win the track meet of 403 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: the NFL Combine, right, which is pure performances and measurables 404 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: and jumps and you know, and then of course the 405 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: throwing sessions and all that, but the bench press whatever, 406 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: all of those factors that you've got to evaluate, and 407 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 1: this is for any position. What's going to be more 408 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: valuable is how does a guy break down tape? How 409 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: does a guy how receptive is he to coaching? Where 410 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: is his acumen as a quarterback? Those are all things 411 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 1: that are going to more drastically impact. Is this a 412 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: guy that we're going to spend X draft capital on 413 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: or aggressively move up to get, or we think that 414 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: all these guys are comparable or whatever. That to me 415 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: is the more important part of being able to balance 416 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: that out. You have to take that sample size of 417 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: all his measurables, and yeah, absolutely give him the trophy 418 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: for a winning you know, the combine measurables, But that 419 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: does not translate to how successful he is going to 420 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: be as an NFL quarterback because there are so many 421 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: factors in terms of being successful at that position, and 422 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 1: that's why it's so difficult to get it right. Yeah, No, 423 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: I mean, JJ, you watch him. He can throw the 424 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: ball down the field with ease. Maybe he doesn't have 425 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: the arm talent of a Will Levis and he doesn't 426 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: have the accuracy of Stroud, but he's so gifted and 427 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: it makes you wonder how much he did help his 428 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: draft stock over the weekend. But the question I have 429 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: is does that overshadow anything from last year? Because last 430 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: year Florida was six and six. I understand he can't 431 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: play defense and he's only one guy, but he threw 432 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: seventeen touchdowns nine picks. His completion percentage was fifty four 433 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: percent for the season. Does anything he did last weekend 434 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: overshadow the tape, which is what obviously Chris Ballard's going 435 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: to prioritize. Yeah, I think all the excitement about Anthony 436 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 1: Richardson last week probably came from people who hadn't scouted 437 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: him before, who hadn't really dug into him. They just 438 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: knew him as the super athletic quarterback but hadn't really 439 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: seen him do anything. Because Florida's six and six, you know, 440 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: he probably weren't tuning in to watch the Gators a 441 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: whole lot this year. This Colt's scouting staff has probably 442 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: already seen Anthony Richardson, so it's like they for them, Yeah, 443 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: it sets your athletic benchmarks, and my god, is he 444 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: off the charts on those, but you already probably have 445 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: an idea of the kind of quarterback that he is 446 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: coming into this. Having said all of that, I mean, 447 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: I heard someone put it this way that the athletic 448 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: traits that Anthony Richardson has, that's the floor of what 449 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: you might get out of him. That you get this 450 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: super athletic quarterback who you can scheme an offense around 451 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 1: as you develop the rest of it. If the Colts 452 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: do go that route with Anthony Richardson, I mean, and 453 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm not saying they will, they could go any of 454 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: four or five, six, seven, eight routes with the number 455 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: four overall pick. If you do go that route though, 456 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: that those athletic numbers do matter. They do because you 457 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: can turn that guy into a really effective quarterback. Justin 458 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: fields last year was awesome, and justin fields, I mean 459 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: even't have anyone to throw to outside of Darnel Mooney, 460 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: it felt like at times, But you can. You can 461 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: develop a quarterback with those traits. It is a lot 462 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: easier to develop a quarterback who has those traits than 463 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: who doesn't have those traits. But laras one hundred percent 464 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: right to figure out what the ceiling of that quarterback 465 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: is going to be. You have to figure out what's 466 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: between the years and can you improve that accuracy? Can 467 00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: you get him to process NFL defenses and make the 468 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 1: proper decisions as he goes through his progressions. Yeah, those 469 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: are things that every quarterback going into the draft has 470 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 1: to work on. But yeah, I mean, you see those 471 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 1: numbers and you're blown away. But I gotta think most teams, 472 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: probably all teams who were evaluating and Anthony Richardson kind 473 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 1: of expected those to be the numbers. Everybody in radio 474 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 1: row was talking about it. This guy's gonna blow it up. 475 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: But what does it mean? How does it translate, how 476 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: does it factor into the big picture puzzle there. So again, 477 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: I know the throwing drills of the combine they're not 478 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: going to offer much in terms of the evaluation, but 479 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: I think it does offer the cults, and specifically Shane 480 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: Stike in some value. He said of the combine, he 481 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: wanted to study the quarterbacks, quote, functional movement and keying 482 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: in on their fundamentals, keying in on their footwork. And 483 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: again because Stiken's getting a little bit of a late 484 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: start on these quarterbacks because he was busy, he was 485 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: coaching all the way up until the Super Bowl, any 486 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: piece of the puzzle for him is going to be 487 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: a big deal. I mean, just a quick reminder for 488 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: everyone listening, which I've said to Chicago based media outlets 489 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: like fifty times in the last week, Shane Steken just 490 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: started evaluating the quarterbacks in this year's class. Like he's 491 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: been putting the coaching staff together that we announced Today's 492 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: that's been his focus is putting together that coaching staff. 493 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: Last week probably was the first time he really dove 494 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: into evaluating the quarterbacks in this year's class. And that 495 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: is something you have to keep in mind, is you're okay, 496 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: the Colt's going to trade up. If the Colts trade up, 497 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 1: they have probably have someone in mind if you're going 498 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: to trade up to number one. And you know, like 499 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 1: Chris Bollard said, I just don't know if we're there yet. 500 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: Maybe they get there, but right now Tuesday at one 501 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 1: fifty three pm, I don't know. All right, I want 502 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: to go back. This popped up for me the other day. 503 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: I want to talk about quarterback draft history. I saw 504 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: something the other day. Since twenty eleven, there have been 505 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: twenty five quarterbacks that have been taken with a top 506 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: ten pick. Right, So that's the last decade plus twenty 507 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: five quarterbacks taken in the top ten. And in that span, 508 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: it's kind of a coin flip. For every Patrick Mahomes 509 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: or you know, you hit it right with Joe Burrow 510 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: or Josh Allen or Herbert Andrew Luck. For every one 511 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: of those guys, there's Sam Darnold or Baker Mayfield, Josh 512 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: Rosen or Mitch Trubiski or Zach Wilson. Who's the latest 513 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: example and all of this later, I'm gonna start with you. 514 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: What tells you that the quarterbacks in this class based 515 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: on what you've read, how you've heard them speak again, 516 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: combined workouts, whatever you want to go on. But what 517 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: tells you that the quarterbacks in this draft will be 518 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: successful in the NFL and they won't be in that 519 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: draft bus category? Honestly, nothing other than the team that 520 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: they go to will most greatly impact whether they are 521 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: a bust or whether they are a success. Because in 522 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: looking at that list that you ridle off, do you 523 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 1: look at an organization you talk about Patrick Mahomes, Okay, 524 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: like Kansas City, what has the stability been like with 525 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: the ownership, the head coach, what success did he have 526 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: prior to drafting Patrick Mahomes? Right? Like, there are a 527 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: ton of other factors. Joe Burrow got into an ideal 528 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:11,160 Speaker 1: situation in Cincinnati with Zach Taylor, Josh Allen with Buffalo 529 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: that is a monster that had been building for a 530 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: long time. He walked into an ideal situation for Josh Allen. 531 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: Same thing you know justin Herbert. It was an organization 532 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: that was, you know, beginning to I don't want to 533 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: say necessarily like rebuild, but find a next era post 534 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,959 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers. And they had designed themselves to move that direction. 535 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: They already had, and they already had a good defense 536 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: that they had been building around. So you look at 537 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: the stability within organizations and you know that's that's not 538 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,959 Speaker 1: to knock on you know, the Jets or the Browns, 539 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: or the Cardinals or the Bears, but it also kind 540 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: of does. So it just in saying it's it's so 541 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: much more about the fit and putting that player in 542 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 1: a position of a successful because of the coach you're 543 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: pairing him with, the system he's playing within, and also 544 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: what you have on the other side of the ball 545 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: that will determine all of those things. Look at Daniel Jones. 546 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: The first three years of Daniel Jones' career, it was like, 547 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: this guy's a bust. Then Brian Dable comes in this 548 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: year and proves how much coaching in scheme matter. Eno 549 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: same thing with Josh Allen. Brian Dable right there that 550 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: Lara hit it on the head completely. That situation matters 551 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,360 Speaker 1: so much. There are some quarterbacks who can overcome bad situations. 552 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: Those are once every ten years those guys come through 553 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: the league. You counting on someone to come in and 554 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: overcome a bad situation with substandard coaching, with subpar teammates 555 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: around him is so difficult. I mean, look at Trevor Lawrence. 556 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: Trevilor Lawrence in twenty twenty one was a bad quarterback. 557 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't because Trevor Lawrence was a bad quarterback. It's 558 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: because Urban Meyer was his head coach, I mean him. 559 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: And then you come in this year and you get 560 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson as his head coach with Jim Bob Cooder, 561 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk has a career year, Travis Etn is there, 562 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: You've got a good, solid offensive line, you give Calvin Ridley. 563 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean, situation matters so much for these guys. And 564 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: here's the thing. Inevitably, this is just the truth. Inevitably, 565 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 1: the odds are one of these guys is gonna be 566 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: really good. He's gonna have a really good career. One 567 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: of them probably won't pan out, like you said, Larry's 568 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: gonna go to the wrong team or not developed, not 569 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: be able to take coaching, won't translate to the NFL 570 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, and then the other two will probably 571 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: just be okay. Now, you might have two quarterbacks flame out, 572 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: you might have two quarterbacks be really good, But the 573 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: odds are one's gonna be really good. One's gonna flame 574 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: out on the other are just kind of they're going 575 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: to tread water from maybe a contract or two in 576 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: the NFL. One thing that I think is going to 577 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: be interesting to follow over a span of time is 578 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: because of how college football has been monetized and made 579 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: more corporate from a NIL perspective, major broadcast rights, college 580 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: football playoff expansion, all of those factors, a lot of 581 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: these top tier quarterbacks are more so treated like pros 582 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: when they become starters at the college level. I am 583 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: curious if these guys will be better prepared to transition 584 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: into the NFL because for most of them, it's going 585 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: to be a much larger sum of money. But it's 586 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: not the first time that they're coming into being able 587 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: to command their worth. They're already doing it. Guys who 588 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: are playing at top tier college programs already have those situations. 589 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: Will that lead to less of a drop off across 590 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: the board for players going from the NF or from 591 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: college football to the NFL. It's going to tap. This 592 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: is a study that needs to probably go ten years 593 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: deep from the beginning of the NIL all of this, 594 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: But I mean, I am curious that I how that 595 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: will be a factor in particular with this class of guys, 596 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: because they've already had so much media scrutiny. As sure, 597 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: it's different than what you're gonna get the NFL level, 598 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: but high degree of it. When you're talking about the 599 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: major top tier college programs, five programs, it's kind of 600 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: go out on a limb here. This is why I'm 601 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: not really worried about who the Colts take, because the 602 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: conversations we've had with Shane Steken and the way that 603 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: I think he can put whatever quarterback the Colts take 604 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: into a good situation is so important. Shane Steiken has 605 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: a really good understanding of how to bring a quarterback 606 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,959 Speaker 1: along and develop him. In twenty twenty, he told us, 607 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: he told Justin Herbert, the running back is going to 608 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: be your best friend. And Austin Neckler led the league 609 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: in running back receptions that year. Because Justin Herbert, you know, 610 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: you don't have that accelerated vision. You haven't seen these 611 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: coverages that it's going to take you three, four five 612 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: years to see every single coverage in the league and 613 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: see every single front and not be surprised by something. 614 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: It takes time and for the right coach to come in. 615 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: That's so critical, and the Colts are not without weapons 616 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: on offense. Jonathan Taylor, you know, Jelani Woods is someone 617 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: we're all excited about here, Alec Pierce and ascending guy 618 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 1: Michael Pittman Junior is a hundred catcher exactly. And that 619 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: to me, like, you don't it doesn't have to be perfect. 620 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 1: If it were perfect, the Colts would not be picking 621 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: fourth overall. But you need to have some pieces in 622 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: place to where you don't have a twenty twenty one 623 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: Jaguars situation or you know, some other teams like that. 624 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: When the Bears drafted Mitch Trubisky, his number one wide 625 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: receiver that year was like I don't even literally, I 626 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: can't remember who the number one receiver on that team was. 627 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: It was like maybe Dontrell Inman, who they traded for midseason, 628 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: former Colt, Like that was the level of talent that 629 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: was around him. The Colts do not have that. They 630 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: have much better players, and it matters that you have 631 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,959 Speaker 1: an offensive minded head coach in Shane Steiken who can 632 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: come in and develop that quarterback and know what buttons 633 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: to press and when to accelerate that development and when 634 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: to say we might need to dial it back a 635 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: little bit. That will put whoever this quarterback is in 636 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: the best position to succeed. I also think it's worth 637 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: noting that a lot of your weapons, when you're talking 638 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: about within this offense wide receivers, tight end running backs, 639 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: it's a young group and it's an impressionable group that 640 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,719 Speaker 1: you can mold together. I mean, we talked about how 641 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: young the receiver corps is. Looking at the tight ends, 642 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: I mean MOLEI Cox is the most experienced of that group, 643 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: and then surrounding him, you know a lot of you 644 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 1: guys coming off of their first and second years. Look 645 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: at how young the receiving group is. Jay T still 646 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: incredibly young in his NFL career. So I think that 647 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: it is a group that you can bring along together. 648 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: It's not like this quarterback should the Colts draft one 649 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: have to come in and make do with a bunch 650 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: of guys who have been within another system or heavily 651 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: influenced by one particular quarterback. They're going to bring this 652 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: group up and build that group together as one. The 653 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,720 Speaker 1: other thing to keep in mind is rookie year results 654 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: are not necessarily predictive of the rest of this quarterback's career. 655 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the list mate of the top ten 656 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: pick quarterbacks since twenty eleven, there were twenty six of them. 657 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 1: You know, you go down the list, but okay, twenty 658 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: five twenty Well, maybe it'd include Terrell Prior, who counted 659 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 1: as a quarterback in this. But Trevor Lawrence. I have 660 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: a tendency to miscount awful situation for Trevor l. Yeah, 661 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: it's not that much. Um, Trevor Lawrence awful situation his 662 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: rookie year. He rebounded from it. Joe Burrow tore his 663 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: acl because the offensive line in Cincinnati was so bad 664 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: his rookie year. He's doing just right now. Josh Allen 665 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: was like he wasn't like a real NFL quarterback his 666 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: rookie or he just scrambled and threw it fifty yards 667 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 1: down field. His completion percentage coming out of college was 668 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: like fifty three. So that's the Brian day ball effect, right, 669 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: He's going he goes to the right situation. Right, But 670 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: you can what did Shane Steken say? You can coach 671 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 1: accuracy with scheme and with technique. So just because if 672 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: someone comes in and whoever, the Colts take doesn't have 673 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: a good rookie year, that does not mean that they 674 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: are a bust. I think there are levels of struggles 675 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: as a rookie that might inform you of that. You know, 676 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 1: I think probably some teams or you know, the Jets 677 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: might have realized early on that Zach Wilson maybe didn't 678 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: have it there. You know, Jake Locker, a guy the 679 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: Titans took in the top ten, a guy who you 680 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: know didn't really have it early on. But for the 681 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: most part, you can just because you have a poor 682 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 1: rookie season and your production maybe isn't there, does not 683 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 1: mean that you won't grow as a quarterback. And I 684 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: think that's something that christ has talked about, right Mattey, 685 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: that in this age of instant gratification and we want 686 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: everything to be great right from the jump, don't give 687 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: up on a guy after a year. Wait and develop him. 688 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: And you know, maybe you have a rookie season like 689 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert or like Cam Newton or Andrew Luck and 690 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: you know, you show a lot of really good things 691 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: and you're productive from week one, but you don't have 692 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: to be to be the long term solution at quarterback. 693 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 1: And the unfortunate part of this. To your guys's point, 694 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 1: I completely agree with you that a lot of how 695 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: we view these guys that are in the bucket of 696 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: draft bus has to do with where they were drafted, right. 697 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean, do we think Sam Darnold is a bad 698 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: quarterback that can't play in the NFL? No, but he 699 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: was drafted by the Jets and they've had some instability. 700 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 1: To put it lightly, I mean, would Marcus Fall's career 701 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:50,879 Speaker 1: been different had he not gone to the race? Sure? 702 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: Had Baker Mayfield been drafted by the Chargers over Justin 703 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 1: Herbert Hypothetically, I know they're not in the same draft class, 704 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: but you get the idea, like what if what if 705 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen is drafted by the Chiefs and he's paired 706 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: up with Andy Reid? Like, do we think of Josh 707 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: Rosen completely differently? That's my point. They get him in 708 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: the right situation and that sets them up for rookie 709 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: contract trajectory. By the way, I will speaking of Sam Darnold, 710 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: I will give you a million dollars right now if 711 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: you could tell me who the leading rusher and leading 712 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: receiver on the twenty eighteen New York Jets were When 713 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold was a rookie rushier and receiver. Yeah, like 714 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 1: a million dollars one guy, or we played him that year, 715 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 1: but that was five years ago, so I have no idea. 716 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: Isaiah Crowell, Isaiah Crowell was the leading rusher. He averaged 717 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: forty one hundred forty three attempts six to eighty five yards. 718 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: Not bad. Robbie Anderson leading wide receiver fifty catches for 719 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: seven and fifty two yards. Yeah, yeah, what is Robbie 720 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,479 Speaker 1: Anderson now being known as? Though he's changed it because 721 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: he changed Robbie Anderson and now I think he's getting 722 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: cut by wow. Oh yeah, he now has a different Yeah. Well, 723 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: here's the last one. Here's the last one. I'll lead 724 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: the chosen, chosen, all right, chosen Anderson, all right, last one, 725 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: and then we'll we'll switch to a different topic. But 726 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 1: to put a bow on the conversation. Since nineteen ninety eight, 727 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: seventy two quarterbacks have been picked up in the first round. 728 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: Eleven of the seventy two delivered their team a Super 729 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 1: Bowl championship. Forty one of them failed to win at 730 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 1: least one playoff game. So it's a big deal. Obviously, 731 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: it goes without swim. It's like it's like there's not 732 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: a lot of media, not a lot of gray area. Yeah, right, 733 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: so that's why you know, the Colts potentially here have 734 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: this monumental decision to make if indeed they choose to 735 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: go quarterback in the draft. All right, speaking of all 736 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: of this, we were all at the Combine. There was 737 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: more fallout from the Combine from the Bear sitting at 738 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: number one currently their general manager Ryan Poles. He spoke 739 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: with Peter King of NBC Sports of the combine, and 740 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: Peter King reported that Poles has talked with According to him, Poles, 741 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: that is, has talked with three teams about trading the 742 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: top pick in the draft, has a good idea of 743 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 1: what he can get in return. King reported he said 744 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: he had enough conversations about a deal to know and 745 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: swapping first round picks this year that he can get 746 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 1: a twenty twenty four first round pick and at twenty 747 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: twenty five first round pick in a major package for 748 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: a trade. Poles wants to be sure he gets a 749 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:22,760 Speaker 1: quote blue player, that's his term for a premier first rounder, 750 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 1: and there may be only six or eight of those 751 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: when the Bears end up setting their board now last 752 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: week of the combine, Chris Ballard said the Colts wouldn't 753 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: trade up for a quarterback unless unless he was quote 754 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: just convinced that this, no freaking doubt is the guy. 755 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: That's a that's a very Chris Ballard type of quote. 756 00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: I love it, Lara. Are there any quarterbacks in this 757 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: draft class that fit the Chris Ballard quote of quote 758 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 1: no freaking doubt the guy as we sit on March seventh, 759 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: Not to me, I don't think so. They're still much 760 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:04,800 Speaker 1: to be glean from Pro Day's private workouts, complex visits, 761 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,919 Speaker 1: because they'll bring guys into their building. There's a lot 762 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: to be learned before that last week and in April. 763 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: So there could be a guy who separates himself and 764 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: solidifies himself as that guy in the next month, month 765 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: and a half. But as it sits right now, that's 766 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: no right. I don't think that's the first part of it. 767 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 1: The second part of it j J. Hypothetically, if that 768 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: guy does exist, how do you feel about the Colts 769 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: giving up two first rounders and back to back years 770 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: to go up three spots. That is a whopper of 771 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: a deal if you get it right. It doesn't matter 772 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: if you get that pick right. Who cares? I would 773 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: agree with you on that that but and look, the 774 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: Colts have to get this pick right anyway. They could 775 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: stay at four and get it right, or they could 776 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: stay at four and get it wrong, and it'll have 777 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 1: just the same ramifications. Obviously, losing two first round picks 778 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: adds to the pain, But what matters is getting the 779 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 1: quarterback pick right. And if you have to trade two 780 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: first round picks to do it, then you're okay with 781 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: that if you think you can be convicted right, But 782 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: you can't just do that to be like, well, we 783 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: want to control the draft, pard you need to do 784 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 1: that because you are convinced that that's the guy. If 785 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: you have three or four guys bunched up on your 786 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: board and there isn't that much separating the right, you 787 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 1: feel like you could stay at four and take that guy, 788 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,439 Speaker 1: stay at four and then continue to build your team 789 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: with those picks. But if you need to, if you 790 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: feel like we gotta go get this guy, go do it. 791 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: And the price at that point, who cares? If you 792 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,320 Speaker 1: get it right, no one's going to care that the 793 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: Colts aren't picking in the first round in twenty four 794 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,239 Speaker 1: and twenty five. Here's the thing, though, I think that 795 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: there are teams that are in a more desperate quarterback 796 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: situation because of they're too far back in the draft 797 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: to be in the conversation. I think a team like 798 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: Carol Lina could be the team to jump up and 799 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: make that move and be more aggressive because of where 800 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: they are sitting, just inside the top ten as opposed 801 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: to the Colts, who are still in a good position 802 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 1: at four. So I think that there's a team like 803 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 1: that that could be kind of skewing this conversation to 804 00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's Carolina, but just kind of 805 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 1: looking at quarterback situation, looking at where they're sitting, I 806 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: don't think that a guy is going to be there 807 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 1: at nine, So it might be advantageous and might be 808 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 1: worthwhile for them to jump up, And that could be 809 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: where a lot of this conversation, well, that is fueling this. 810 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 1: Now that's the next part of this. Do the Colts 811 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: have to move up to at least number three? Then? Okay, 812 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: if they don't go from four to one, do they 813 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: have to at least move up to three with the 814 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 1: Cardinals in order to prevent a team like the Panthers 815 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: or somebody else that needs a quarterback in the top ten, 816 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: prevent that team from moving up in front of you 817 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: to ensure that you get at least one of the 818 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: top three quarterbacks in the class. That's a huge hypothetical, JJ, 819 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: because it all boils down to your evaluation of these 820 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: draft quarterbacks. If there's a gap between let's say the 821 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,879 Speaker 1: top two and the next two, or the top three 822 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: and the last one there at number four. If the 823 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are close, then you don't trade up. You get 824 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 1: one of the best four quarterbacks in the draft, and 825 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,479 Speaker 1: you feel good. But if there's a gap, I would 826 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: find out why, and I would see if I can 827 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: coach up Anthony Richardson or if I could coach up 828 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: Will Levis right, because Richardson is this unicorn in terms 829 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 1: of talent and athleticism and ability. If I feel like 830 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: I can coach up his flaws, if I feel like 831 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: I can develop him even further, I'm not giving up 832 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: two first round picks, certainly to go from four to one. 833 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: But that next conversation is a little bit intrigue. Going 834 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 1: from four to three, obviously the price tag is not 835 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,439 Speaker 1: going to be as steep. It might be a little 836 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: bit more manageable, and you also ensure you get one 837 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: of the top three guys if in fact that cluster. 838 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: What you don't want to be doing is in that 839 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 1: scenario that Daniel Jeremiah had on Twitter yesterday, he said, 840 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: quote Indian Carolina both need to identify the quarterback prospect 841 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 1: they want and do what it takes to move up 842 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,879 Speaker 1: and get them. I don't think patience is your friend 843 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 1: right now. With so many quarterback needy teams out there, 844 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 1: Bears can issue a buy now price for that pick, 845 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 1: and I believe one of these two will pay it. 846 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,879 Speaker 1: So that's Daniel Jeremiah jj our thoughts on possibly going 847 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: up to one or possibly going up to three. Maytee, 848 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 1: I think you're the point you made in there about Okay, 849 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 1: why is there a gap. Let's say, just hypothetically, there's 850 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: a gap between the top two quarterbacks and then the 851 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 1: next two. No, I mean no, seriously, But if you're 852 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 1: all over Anthony Richardson, if you like him, and you 853 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: and I think there's teams out there that think, believe 854 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: it or not, he's like the second best quarterback in 855 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,320 Speaker 1: this draft. But I think there's teams out there, So 856 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: if it was me, I'd figure out why, and I 857 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: would camp out in Gainesville and just figure out what's 858 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 1: going on and talk to as many people's boss. But 859 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 1: if you do that, I need to say, Okay, we 860 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 1: have we have Anthony Richardson number three on our board, 861 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,879 Speaker 1: and there is a gap between the top two guys 862 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 1: and Anthony Richardson. But if we surround him with the 863 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: right pieces, which we could take in the twenty four 864 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,800 Speaker 1: and twenty five drafts with our first round picks, he 865 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: will have a chance to succeed. So we feel comfortable 866 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: staying at four, even if maybe he's the third guy 867 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: on our board. And again, we don't know what the 868 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: Colts draft looks like, absolutely no idea what that group 869 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: looks like. But that this is where the the cat 870 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: and mouse game of the next couple of weeks is 871 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 1: going to be so fascinating because it sounds like the 872 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: Bears want to make this trade this week. Yeah, right now, 873 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: aren't they because they they need they're selling peace of mind, 874 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: but they also need picks so they could maybe go 875 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: out and trade for someone like a DeAndre Hopkins. Right now, 876 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,360 Speaker 1: they don't have the picks to go send a you know, 877 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: a high second round pick for him, you know, if 878 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 1: they need to know what picks they have so they 879 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: can go weaponize their cap space through trades, not just 880 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 1: free agency, and use those picks to acquire some players 881 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: to put around justin fields. So it behooves them to 882 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 1: make the trade this week, so then going into free 883 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: agency they can start making those moves. Uh that way. 884 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: But if I'm the Colts, you know, it's like I 885 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 1: was talking about earlier, Shanesteke, and just got started evaluating 886 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,319 Speaker 1: these quarterbacks. And now if the Bears are saying, well, 887 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 1: pick one, is that going to lead the Colts to 888 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: back off? I don't know. Does that lead the Colts 889 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,719 Speaker 1: to trade up to number three and say, yeah, we 890 00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: like three of these guys. We don't know who we 891 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 1: like yet, but we like three of us, and we'll 892 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: go up. All right, We'll just make sure we get 893 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: one of them. And also, are we sure Houston's taking 894 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: a quarterback at number two? I don't know. Yeah, this 895 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: is also fascinating in many respects. We're just getting started. Man. 896 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: The legal tampering period starts a Monday. Free agency next week, 897 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,799 Speaker 1: and then of course the ongoing quarterback talk, so let's 898 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 1: continue that now Charles Davis, as we said, one of 899 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: the best and nicest human beings in the football business 900 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: and in life for that matter. Charles and I sat 901 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: down at the NFL Combine last week. We talk Colts, 902 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: We talk Quarterbacks.

Yeah, thanks to you. I'm gonna keep it. 916 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:28,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it a lot. You know, we're sitting 917 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 1: here talking about prime forty seven. Saint Elmo is like, no, 918 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 1: I'm going to get airheads rocket fizz. How many times 919 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: have you hit that up? By the way, so far? Man? 920 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: I hit it up so much that my pictures up 921 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: into place. Now. I like it. Yeah, you're putting somebody 922 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: through college, That's what it's all Aboutody is very happy. 923 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: How might get stocked next time? Well, let's let's talk 924 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 1: about the colts. I know you're you're pressed for time, 925 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: so well we'll maximize it to here. Charles on day 926 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,440 Speaker 1: two of the of the combine Shane Steke and the 927 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,320 Speaker 1: Fit in Indianapolis. What what do you make of that? 928 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,839 Speaker 1: I like it a lot, you know, And and look 929 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:02,840 Speaker 1: all the controversy I went through with Jeff Saturday and 930 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:06,240 Speaker 1: him getting the job and all that. I firmly believe 931 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 1: that mister Ersey intended for that to be more than 932 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: what it was. But the way things went it put 933 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: everything into you know, play everything in the jeopardy. You 934 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: can't have a thirty point lead blown. You can't only 935 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: win one game. You can't do that. This isn't me 936 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: pointing fingers at Jeff because I'm a huge Jeff Saturday guy, 937 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,839 Speaker 1: and I know there's controversy, but I thought Reggie Wayne 938 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 1: hit it best. Oh really at the TSA line. You're 939 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 1: not going to jump up there if they give you 940 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: an opportunity, Absolutely, who would. I don't blame Jeff at all. 941 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: But now that it's open, here comes Shane Steike in 942 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: the way that he ran offense in Philadelphia. And what 943 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: people have to understand is he did call the play's 944 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 1: last two years at Philadelphia. That was turned over to 945 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 1: him by the head coach. He had firm control of 946 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 1: that offense. He's going to play to whatever his talent 947 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 1: gives him. He's gonna be a lot like Brian day Ball. 948 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: I believe Brian day Ball. I don't believe wanted to 949 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: play in New York the way he played last year. 950 00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: I don't think he wanted to have his quarterback running 951 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: of team quarterback runs right, But that was that's how 952 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 1: he could win ball games and he didn't get to 953 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I think Shane will do the exact same thing. Obviously, 954 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: a quarterback is going to be a big, big part 955 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 1: of this draft process for the Indianapolis Colts and how 956 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: you build around that quarterback and go from there. You 957 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: saw what he did with Jalen Hurts. He played to 958 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: what Jalen did best and what that team presented. It's 959 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,479 Speaker 1: going to take some time to have an offensive line 960 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 1: like Philly, sure, but Indianapolis had that just a few 961 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: years ago, so they can build it again. With all 962 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 1: that out there, what was it impaired of the Colts 963 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: kit a offensive minded head coach. It certainly felt like it. 964 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 1: I am a big believer that these teams and hiring coaches, 965 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: you better get someone who's a leader of people. You 966 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 1: better get someone who commands the locker room, someone that 967 00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:47,479 Speaker 1: the team can respect. I don't care if his offense 968 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 1: or defense. I feel like loui Anna Rumo of Cincinnati 969 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 1: totally overlooked by by people in his hiring cycle. He 970 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 1: gives you everything that you're looking for. The person who 971 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,720 Speaker 1: can command the locker room, get the respect to the players, 972 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,280 Speaker 1: do all of that. That's a scaret business. This idea 973 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: that a head coach is the only guys coached, really 974 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: one side of the ball. I have to admit I 975 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,279 Speaker 1: don't like that. Yeah, I don't like that at all. Yeah. 976 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 1: I want a head coach who knows everybody on the team. 977 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: I want a head coach who understands what you're doing 978 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: on defense, if he's an offensive coach, if he's an 979 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: defense coach, or he understands what you're doing on office. 980 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: I want anything to run through them. I want to 981 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:23,919 Speaker 1: be Denzel Washington and remember the Titans. You will run 982 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 1: the defense under my overall direction, right right. That's what 983 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 1: I want as a head coach, and I believe that. 984 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,839 Speaker 1: I think Shane Stikin can provide all those things. But yeah, 985 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 1: he will be an offensive minded coach first, because that's 986 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 1: really where we're going into lage and he's got a 987 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 1: lot on his plate and he's doing it the way. 988 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 1: Keeping Gus Bradley was a great moment, no question about it. 989 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 1: So you look at all that, are you surprised that 990 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 1: with all that, doing it for the first time, he 991 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: still wants to call plays and they manage that. No, 992 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm not surprised at all because so many of these coaches, 993 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 1: they believe what got them the job is what they 994 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: should continue to do. Okay, Okay. Nick Sirianni started calling 995 00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 1: plays in Philadelphia before turning it over to Shane Steiken 996 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 1: Brian Day Bowles. At almost an exception, he never called 997 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 1: plays with the Giants. He turned over to Mike Kafka, 998 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 1: but he made sure Mike Kafka proved himself in the 999 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 1: offseason and the preseason before he totally turned it over 1000 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: and said go ahead and take it. Many of these 1001 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: coaches get the job for their acumen. And look with 1002 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 1: the news we get in Buffalo yesterday with Leslie Frasier 1003 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 1: no longer stepping away years to be a sybbatical what 1004 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,839 Speaker 1: have you? Will you be surprised if Sean McDermott at 1005 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,479 Speaker 1: some point announces that he's going to take over defense again. 1006 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be, because that's how things have changed. Todd 1007 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 1: Bowles and Tampa last year was a DC elvated head coach. 1008 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: He told me last summer he's gonna keep calling plays 1009 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:41,160 Speaker 1: because I don't have time to get a person in 1010 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,840 Speaker 1: who's gonna run the system, etc. It's better than I 1011 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: do it. I have someone I trust. Whether he'll do 1012 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 1: it next year, I don't know. But where he got 1013 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 1: the job in the time frame, he thought it was 1014 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 1: best to keep calling them. So none of that surprises me. 1015 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,359 Speaker 1: Their acumen, their skill level got them the job. They 1016 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 1: believe that's how they do it. Frank Wright called the plays. 1017 00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 1: He's gonna call my bitch, Frank call them in Carolina too. 1018 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,480 Speaker 1: Where are you with the quarterback class? How much tape you? 1019 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: I got a ton more to do, but I think 1020 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:12,839 Speaker 1: I've done more to this stage considering where I normally start, 1021 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: than I have in years past. So it's probably, you know, 1022 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: a low bar. Yeah, But at the same time in 1023 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: the past, you know, because I called games during the 1024 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: year and I hope no one is listening. And same boy, 1025 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 1: that kid makes a lot of excuses. This is not 1026 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 1: an excuse. It's just my schedule ends after the Super 1027 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 1: Bowl because I called the Super Bowl for international broadcast, 1028 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 1: so I'm fully immersed in calling and calling games everything. 1029 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,160 Speaker 1: Do I watch? Yeah, when I can. But I'm not 1030 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,760 Speaker 1: gonna lie to people and say, oh, yeah, I'm watching 1031 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 1: so much college football on Saturday because I'm getting ready 1032 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: for an NFL game. Okay, now I pick up the 1033 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:50,879 Speaker 1: pace and now I go. But I have seen more 1034 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 1: already than I normally do, and I will tell you 1035 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,719 Speaker 1: for me, I know the size is the thing, but 1036 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: Bryce Young is my number one quarterback out of Alabama. 1037 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 1: I've got to have a hard time getting off of 1038 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 1: that unless tomorrow on Friday. Let me see me on Thursday. 1039 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: He measures and weighs one hundred and seventy pounds, Yeah, 1040 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to happen. If he weighs 1041 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: anywhere close to two hundred, you're good with that. He's 1042 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: gonna throw his hands up like he just won the 1043 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 1: heavyweight championship a few years ago. Matt. We were all here, 1044 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: Remember we were waiting for the measurement for Kyler Murray. 1045 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: Would he'd be five ten? Yeah? And he was Remember 1046 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's hand, Yeah, can he pick his hand enough? 1047 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 1: Those are those are the early wins for him. Anywhere 1048 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 1: close to two hundred I think is a major victory 1049 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,120 Speaker 1: for Are you going to be putting your arms in 1050 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 1: the air though, celebrating that. I'll be celebrating because it'll 1051 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: take away when I have to fight with people over 1052 00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: why I like Bryce Young because they made they said, well, 1053 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: you know, he weighed one sixty five when he played 1054 00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 1: against I don't think he ever weighed one sixty five, 1055 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 1: but I hear that a lot. This kid is a 1056 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 1: playmaker extraordinaire. I think he plays from the pocket better 1057 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 1: than he gets credit for. He's not a runner as 1058 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 1: much as he is a mover when necessary. Can he 1059 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,080 Speaker 1: pick up first downs with his legs? Absolutely? Yeah, but 1060 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: he's not really They're not calling a ton of quarterback 1061 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 1: run game for him. You know, that's not really what 1062 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 1: he does. But go back and watch some of the 1063 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:15,839 Speaker 1: anticipatory throws he makes, where the ball is placed, the accuracy. 1064 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,879 Speaker 1: And by the way, my alma mater, Tennessee finally beat 1065 00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 1: Alabama fifteen seasons. Right, if he doesn't play against Tennessee 1066 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:29,239 Speaker 1: this year, they get run. It was twenty eight ten 1067 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: at one point, and he brought to Alabama back and 1068 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: had a position win the ball game, go to the 1069 00:54:34,080 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: LSU game this year. So so look at his losses 1070 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:39,320 Speaker 1: this season, might say his Alabama's lost this season. My 1071 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,760 Speaker 1: Alabama friends are just all upset. Didn't get the playoff? 1072 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: How did we not gonna called football playoff? My volunteers 1073 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: kicked the field goal at the buzzer from forty yards 1074 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: to beat them. Somehow kid knuckle balled. It was not pretty. Yeah, 1075 00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: can you imagine you got that young man felt drawn 1076 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 1: his leg back to kick that one. It doesn't matter. 1077 00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:01,359 Speaker 1: It went inca. It's not aesthetics. By the way, as 1078 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: soon as the thing went through. They became an instant 1079 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:07,320 Speaker 1: hero on campus. Right now, they'd lose at LSU in 1080 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 1: overtime on a two point conversion play last play the 1081 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 1: the two losses they had this year, run the last 1082 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: plays it again. If he doesn't play in either one 1083 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,120 Speaker 1: of those games, they get jumped on in both todowns. 1084 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,319 Speaker 1: That's who this kid is. And I think he's got 1085 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,279 Speaker 1: a toughness to him. I really like him. No, I'll 1086 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: just put it to you that way. CJ. Stroud, I 1087 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: think it is terrific. Will Levis, I gotta do more 1088 00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:31,799 Speaker 1: work on. I know there's a Tennessee bias. People are 1089 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 1: gonna accuse me of it, but I do think if 1090 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: Hendon Hooker does not have to ACL, I think we'd 1091 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,240 Speaker 1: be having a bigger fight about whether Hooker or Levis 1092 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: is QB three this class. And Anthony Richardson's the most 1093 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 1: physically gifted quarterback in this class bar none is not 1094 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 1: even close. If you see him in person on the hoof, 1095 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna call me, Matt Taylor, gonna go good Lord? 1096 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,320 Speaker 1: Is that a good looking kid in terms of physical ability, stature, 1097 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 1: the whole thing, pull up the Utah. He might be 1098 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 1: the number one pick in the draft. All right, Lastly, 1099 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: I know you gotta run after this. You know the 1100 00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 1: cole Shane Steken spoke earlier today. He talked about the 1101 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 1: number one trade. The number one thing that they're going 1102 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: to prioritize in their quarterback and their search in this 1103 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 1: draft potentially is relentlessness, right, wanting to be the best quarterback, 1104 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:21,920 Speaker 1: having a drive, having a passion, elevating everybody else around them. Yep, 1105 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 1: in this class, what you know about these guys? Who 1106 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:28,120 Speaker 1: has those traits sort of in spades? Same same kid 1107 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 1: I talked about before, right, show, That's who he is. Relentless, 1108 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 1: sees the big picture, makes all his decisions based on 1109 00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: how am I getting better today? Yeah, Now that's not 1110 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: to say that the others don't do that. He's the 1111 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 1: one I probably know a little bit better. Sure, I've 1112 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 1: had a little more experience with him for some stuff offseason, etc. 1113 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying Hooker doesn't. I'm not saying Levis doesn't 1114 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 1: do that. Let me tell you zone, Will Levis is 1115 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,000 Speaker 1: a good looking kid. Now, he knows what weight room is, 1116 00:56:56,160 --> 00:57:01,240 Speaker 1: all right, he spent his time. Richardson is bigger, stronger 1117 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,839 Speaker 1: than Will Levis and when I'm just telling you, Matt, 1118 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:06,800 Speaker 1: when you see if you're gonna go, you'll call me. 1119 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: Trust Yeah, okay, I'm not seeing those guys don't have it. 1120 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:13,399 Speaker 1: I just know that Bryce Young has it, yeah for sure. 1121 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: All right, Well, if you see some extra charges on 1122 00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 1: your tab at Rocket Fizz, that's probably me.

The whole thing 1144 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 1: is something I've had to be careful of my entire 1145 00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: life and so many other people. So it's not a 1146 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 1: joke for me. But I do have to be conscious 1147 00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 1: of it because if I see rocket fizz, I'm like, 1148 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: I'll take two of those, eight of those, twelve of 1149 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,520 Speaker 1: those things, of those type of those and just ship 1150 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 1: them to my house.

To take care, Okay, Charles Davis again 1155 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 1: one of the greatest dudes in the NFL talking football 1156 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:49,240 Speaker 1: right there. That was from the combine last week. It's 1157 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,919 Speaker 1: always so bizarro. You talk to all these guys about 1158 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: their favorite haunts and stops in Indianapolis of the Combine, 1159 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 1: it's it's Prime forty seven and Saint Elmo it's Harry 1160 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: and Izzy's. Or I have like a hole in a 1161 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 1: wall bar for Charles, it's Rocket Fizz with the candy 1162 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 1: on the circle. It's how much candy could you eat 1163 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: in a setting before you started to feel awful about 1164 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,480 Speaker 1: yourself physically and mentally consciously a Laria Overton, you don't 1165 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 1: strike me as a big candy gal because I can't 1166 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: keep it in the house, like because you eat it. Yeah, 1167 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:20,400 Speaker 1: Dan Tucker and I have one day a week that 1168 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,640 Speaker 1: we buy candy, and that is on Sunday and at 1169 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 1: the grocery store or what We usually go to CBS 1170 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: because there are two pretty close star house in the 1171 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 1: b rip and uh yeah, we go and we get 1172 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 1: candy on Sunday. And that's kind of like my indulgence 1173 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: is the candy I get on Sunday. So I have 1174 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 1: to have some will That is why I can only 1175 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 1: get it one day a week, because if I have 1176 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 1: candy around me at all times, like I'm not one 1177 00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,240 Speaker 1: of those people can have like a candy dish at 1178 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 1: my desk. Like we got a couple of co workers 1179 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: like David Thornton got some candy jars over there, Lindsay 1180 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 1: Gatavlo says, some epic candy jars over here. In self 1181 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 1: restraint sponsorship, you know, uh yeah, I don't have a 1182 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 1: lot of self restraint. I could go pretty deep, you know. 1183 00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: The bigger thing for me than candy just kind of 1184 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 1: only within the sweets category. I one could house a 1185 01:00:05,680 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: full pack of double stuffed Oreos without coming up for air, 1186 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 1: So I know it's not a candy, but still within 1187 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 1: like the sweets realm. Yeah, So I mean that gives 1188 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 1: you some perspective on the lack of willpower that one 1189 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:22,760 Speaker 1: Lara Overton possesses. That pretty well illustrates it. Like I 1190 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: can go ham on some candy, and I too. I like, 1191 01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 1: I like chocolate candy. I like the chocolate, peanut butter 1192 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 1: and the ree season the stuffs, I like the sweetness 1193 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,520 Speaker 1: sours candies, like the gummies and the sour Patch kids 1194 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: and all of that. So like I'm pretty equal opportunity. 1195 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: The one thing, just don't come at me with some licorice, 1196 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 1: keep that ish or anything tappy person, No, no no, 1197 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 1: not not not stretchy candy those like you know those 1198 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 1: Albanie gummy bears or the sour worms, like I'm all 1199 01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:57,880 Speaker 1: about those, some Starbursts, the Starburst jelly beans, the sour Skittles, 1200 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 1: all of it is. It is a day's proposition. JJ, 1201 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:12,160 Speaker 1: My kids loved shmp shrimp. Uh. Do you have the 1202 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,920 Speaker 1: same problem where there's candy in your house at all 1203 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 1: times because of the holidays and certainly Halloween candy that's 1204 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,640 Speaker 1: left over we have. We have candy on on fold 1205 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 1: display three sixty five. It seems like cookies cookies for us. 1206 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 1: Every time we go to the grocery store, you know, 1207 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,520 Speaker 1: we'll take the boys and they each demand to get 1208 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: a box of cookies or like a package of cookies 1209 01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: because there are two of them and everything has to 1210 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 1: be equal. Son, it will just come home with all 1211 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: these oreos or like the like the really good like 1212 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: soft baked store brand cookies, and we'll just come home 1213 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,680 Speaker 1: and then it's like, oh shoot, like I'm gonna eat 1214 01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:53,200 Speaker 1: a bunch of these cookies and the the one like 1215 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:56,320 Speaker 1: the little I don't know if I'm ashamed of it 1216 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 1: because I'm admitting it on a podcast setting, but after 1217 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 1: I was safe space, after there there have been days 1218 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:05,440 Speaker 1: where I've come back and I've had I've had, you know, 1219 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: a couple of drinks, like Wednesday, when I was out 1220 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 1: until one am at the Combine because I'm an idiot 1221 01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 1: and I just was having fun with my friends. NFL 1222 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 1: spring break is what referred to it as a night. 1223 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 1: It's the greatest. I got back home to my house 1224 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:22,560 Speaker 1: at one forty five in the morning. It was terrible. 1225 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: This is a bad decision. But I then went into 1226 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 1: where our cookies are and I ate an entire sleeve 1227 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 1: of oreos. I was so hungry. I was really hungry. 1228 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 1: I had a couple of beers and I was like, oh, man, 1229 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 1: oreos sound really good. Here's the other thing. Orioles just 1230 01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:41,800 Speaker 1: taste better late at night too. There's something cereal taste 1231 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 1: better late at night. I had a bowl of Life 1232 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Cereal the other night. This looks at me like, I'm 1233 01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 1: nuts cereal for dinner. I don't know what We're going 1234 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,760 Speaker 1: Snacking on cinnamon toast crunch at nine thirty pm really hits. 1235 01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm a big bed cereal guy. I'm not gonna lie 1236 01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 1: in bed laying on the maddress cereal guy. And it's 1237 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: probably not the best with oreos though. In the bed 1238 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 1: crumb City, Yeah, crumb City, crumb City. But yeah, what 1239 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,480 Speaker 1: about you? Well, my kids, it's uh, it really is 1240 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 1: a lot of self restraint because my kids love candy. 1241 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: There's always candy available, and they equate candy with a snack, 1242 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 1: so they say, can I have a snack, and they 1243 01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: just go get a piece of candy. Right, So you 1244 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,439 Speaker 1: definitely have to combat that. There's some parenting that needs 1245 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 1: to happen on our part to fix that and overcorrect that. 1246 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 1: But do you know what, I think there's no saturation 1247 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 1: point on that. I could probably have and to an 1248 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 1: endless degree, I think, and it's kind of playing to 1249 01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 1: our conversation or your conversation rather with Charles Davis and 1250 01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:41,240 Speaker 1: the nostalgic candies six lets, I could eat six lets 1251 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 1: like a full bucket. I don't think I know what 1252 01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,760 Speaker 1: that is. It is. It is like around, It's like 1253 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: a round chocolate candy outside. They used to come in 1254 01:03:51,040 --> 01:03:53,280 Speaker 1: a little sleeve, a little plastic sleeve and you would 1255 01:03:53,280 --> 01:03:58,080 Speaker 1: just like open them up at Yeah, gravity would go down, 1256 01:03:58,120 --> 01:03:59,760 Speaker 1: you know I'm talking about. Yeah, you need to see 1257 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:03,400 Speaker 1: us six let You're a singular the six lits, So 1258 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 1: anyone out there who's still listening to this podcast. If 1259 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,200 Speaker 1: you're on board with me, I'm a six lit. Maybe 1260 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm aging myself out of our audience here. Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, 1261 01:04:12,720 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: I remember. Yeah, they're smaller than an eminem and like 1262 01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 1: they're not as rich as an eminem, so you could 1263 01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 1: just engulf those things among these six related questions on 1264 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:27,760 Speaker 1: Google for sixlets, are six lits real chocolate? Also? Do 1265 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,640 Speaker 1: six do six lets have sugar? I'm pretty sure they do. 1266 01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 1: All right, that's a good random thought.
