1 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:12,120 Speaker 1: He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson, home 2 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio. Welcome to 3 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: the Drive. I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt Williamson and 4 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: Matt it's a Friday. Uh. The Steelers did not have 5 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: any zoom interviews today, made nobody available, so we can 6 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 1: now assume that all of the exit interviews are finished 7 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: and uh completed over on the south side, and um, 8 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: well we're moving into uh off season uh off season 9 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: mode here completely. I would imagine now, uh, you know, 10 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: in the next few days, probably not this weekend, but 11 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: early next week Mike Tomlin will start having his meetings 12 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: with his staff and we get I could get some 13 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: news coming out of those meetings as well. I just 14 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,279 Speaker 1: want to say, we're in a new studio today. I'm 15 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: looking here at this there's a little picture of a 16 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: lake here on the screen, in front of a screen 17 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: screen saver of a lake, and for us, I want 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: to be there. I thought the same thing. I almost 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: said it as my man Brian was putting getting the 20 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: opening go and I was like, let's just go there 21 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: instead and maybe throw in the water and around or 22 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: whatever and have a cold one there cooler, a beer 23 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: and a lounge chair. Actually, I don't even know some 24 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 1: rocky there that you might you can just sit on 25 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: the rocks. I think you could. I don't think you 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: need the chair, lay there like a snake. It's lovely. 27 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: It is lovely. Did catch my eye as well. Absolutely, 28 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: a little nicer than it is in town at the moment, 29 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: a little bit. Yeah, it was fourteen degrees this morning 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: when I was getting my card. I just it's way 31 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: too cold. Yeah, way too cold. Um, but the mock 32 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: draft season is starting to heat. Yeah. Absolutely, some other 33 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: other people are spoken for, you know, some other shots 34 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: fired here on some of these some new news you know, 35 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: there's some or some new viewpoints of how the first 36 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: round might go. And yeah, it was fun. It's just 37 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: a good way to learn these players. Absolutely, And I 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: wanted to get to one that dropped today that Daniel 39 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: Jarre Maya did his first mock on NFL dot com. Uh. 40 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: I always prefaces by kind of introducing who did it? 41 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: And Daniel actually when I got let go from the Browns, 42 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: he came in so he from the Ravens with Phil Savage. 43 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: He's an extensive scouting background. Him and Bucky Brooks, who's 44 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,959 Speaker 1: also a former scout have a good podcast now does 45 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: the game day stuff for the Chargers. Yeah, and say 46 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 1: he's a color guy for the Chargers as well. Um, 47 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: and he's also dialed in in the league, so he 48 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: has a lot of his own thoughts through his scouting 49 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: eye mixed with what people tell him. Yeah, he's a 50 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: good source. Uh, so we'll get we'll jump right into 51 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: this one. Um. Of course, the final eight spots will 52 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: be decided by this weekend's games. Yeah, we'll get to 53 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: those games in the next segment. But his first pick, 54 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: he's got a little different look at this as well. 55 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: He's got the Jaguars at one, taking Evan Neil, the 56 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: offensive tackle out of Alabama. Again, I haven't looked at 57 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: this yet, so I didn't done purpose. I kind of 58 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: want to respond to her organically, and I think that 59 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: tackle at one it's very feasible, you know what I mean. 60 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: Let's just do everything to make Lawrence's life as easy 61 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: as possible. I mean, we're probably not winning the Super 62 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: Bowl in two thousand two. Gold number one through goal 63 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: number ten should be let's turn Lawrence into a star, 64 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: whatever that means. If if there was a Calvin Johnson 65 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: like receiver there take them, you know, I mean, whoever 66 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: the best offensive player is. I wouldn't argue with that 67 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: strategy at all for the Jags. That leaves at two 68 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: Aidan Hutchinson the ad dresser ad of Michigan for the Lions, 69 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: so they don't need a line. That's the one thing 70 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: the Lions that's it Sure seems like a d ND, 71 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: either Thibodeau or Hutchinson would fall to them at two. 72 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: Do you think Hutchison being a Michigan guy matters to them? 73 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: I actually almost brought that up because he's from the area. 74 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: He went to Michigan. To me, that's the tiebreaker. I mean, 75 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: if one is a ninety five and one is the 76 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: ninety four, I'm taking the ninety five. But if they're 77 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: both n yeah maybe, I mean, but oh hey, we're 78 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: bringing into Michigan. Yeah, I mean, they could use as 79 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: much star power in Jersey sales as they possibly get. 80 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: And there's also a practicality to it too, is it 81 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: might be easier for him to adjust to the new 82 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: area and you know, as you might make things a 83 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: little bit easier, right right, right, Maybe he can be 84 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: an ambassador to the rest of the rookie class. At three, 85 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: this is a different name here as well. Of at 86 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: this spot, the Houston Texans don't take Thibodeaux, they take 87 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: Cal Hamilton's the safety at a Notre Dame. You can 88 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: make the argument that he's the best at what he does. 89 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: In this draft, it's just his negative as he's a safety, 90 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: you know, so how do you value that if you're 91 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: just looking for star power. But he's very he's very 92 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: derwin James like and if that draft was if that 93 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: draft was repicked when James came out, he doesn't go seventeen. 94 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: I know the injury issues of s and I wonder 95 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: if he had anything that showed up at the combine James. 96 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, um, I'm not even saying 97 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: this guy is better than James. I think James is unbelievable. 98 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: But he's a little bit more third level, you know, 99 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: deep middle. You know, he's a little range yer, a 100 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,119 Speaker 1: little a little bit better ball skills. James is better 101 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: in the box. So elite, you know, elite safety prospects 102 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: absolutely at four. Then that leaves the Jets with Cavon Thibodeaux. 103 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: Yeah again, I think you know, we'll talk Niners a 104 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: lot um think of their defense, especially when Robert Sala 105 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: was there now the head coach of the Jets. It's 106 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,119 Speaker 1: really geared towards the front four. They don't want blitz much. Again, 107 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: loss in good mo Carl Lawson and Thibodeaux. Now they 108 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: get all of a sudden, they went in Williams all 109 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: of a sudden, that would be the strength of the team. Uh. 110 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: The Giants senate five, no surprise here go with Ekawanu, 111 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: the offensive tackle out of North Carolina State, Richard sophomore. So, 112 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: I mean, young, young, physical. The more I think about it, 113 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: and we've done what three of these and he went 114 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: first and one of them. So I'm like saying, this 115 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: is setting stone. But it sure seems like that fit 116 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: at five is really possible, you know what I mean. 117 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that's one of those two offensive tackles. 118 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: Depends on how they Maybe one test much better than 119 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: the other and they turned into a one too as 120 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: opposed to one A and one B. You know. Yeah. 121 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: Um at six, then the Carolina Panthers take a maud Gardner, 122 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: the cornerback at a Cincinnati I d J. I don't 123 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: get that at all. I don't get that at all either. 124 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: They just drafted J. C. Horne last year they traded 125 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: for Gilmore, they signed Guilt for Gilmore and traded for 126 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: Henderson and they trade like. I don't get that unless there, 127 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: unless they're gonna think they can trade something horn going 128 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: for a quarterback or I mean that's another one that 129 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: well this is too high for a quarterback agreed right 130 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: now as we say, as we sit here, I don't 131 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: think either of us would take a quarterback there. I 132 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: don't know that they necessarily need a defensive lineman. An 133 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: offensive lineman would make a lot of sense that that 134 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: to me seems like the no brain or O line 135 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: spot Cross or whoever. Maybe DJ doesn't think Cross is 136 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: Worth is a different there than the first two. A lineman, 137 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: but corners like the only thing they don't need. Yeah, 138 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 1: I don't get that at all. Uh at seven. Actually 139 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: this would make a little sense for the for the Giants, 140 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: are for the Panthers as well. The Giants take Devon Lloyd, 141 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: the linebacker out of Utah. You said the Giants did, Yeah, 142 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: that's the Giants A seven. People love this kid. I mean, 143 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: I think his negative is he's a linebacker. How are 144 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: you going to take a linebacker the Giants have. I'm 145 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: positive they have taken one in the first round since 146 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: Harry Carson crawl backs sing or something like that. Yeah, 147 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: since our whole life basically, and their linebackers aren't good. 148 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: So yeah. Eight, the Atlanta Falcons Teake Trail and Burke's 149 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver out of Arkansas. Interesting. I've heard a lot 150 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: of Ridley trade rumors. They don't have cap space. They could, 151 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: you know, get a lot of stuff for him at 152 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: this point where they gonna resign him. He's got some 153 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: um issues with you know, mental health at the moment, 154 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: know getting that. We don't know what that is. I mean, 155 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: it could be anything, could be anything. I mean there 156 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: are a lot of people struggling with mental stuff right absolutely. 157 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: I mean, so can they maybe not count on them 158 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: or would it be doing the young man a favor 159 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: to trade him somewhere else in the continue him get 160 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: into a different area He's but even they could use 161 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: the receiver everything. Yeah. At nine, he has the Broncos 162 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: taking Kenny Pickett. Okay, so he must think Pickets is one. 163 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: I'm fine with it. I mean I don't love Picket 164 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: compared to other top prospects, of course, but I think 165 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: he's an NFL starter and it's gonna come up over 166 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: and over. You can't overpad. There's no such thing as 167 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: overspending for a quarterback. If he's a starter and they 168 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: have they have weapons, they've got things in places for 169 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: him to land. Yeah, absolutely, yeah, I think you do 170 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: well there. Attend the Jets take try my duffy cornerback 171 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 1: out of Washington. What they do in the first round 172 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: they took at the end they got Thibodeau. Yeah, that's perfect. 173 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: Their corners are pretty bad. Their corners are real bad. Yeah, 174 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: but he took McDuffie over Singletary is the number one 175 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: corner and over Sauce Gardner. So okay, I really try 176 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: he did. Okay, So Singletary, I'd els you, is not 177 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: one of the top two corners and at least not yet. Right, 178 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: they're not here at eleven. The Washington football team takes 179 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: Matt Corral corner quarterbacks. I think runs are going to 180 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: happen before twenty is where I'm going with this, you know, 181 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: I mean, just because who else is jumping off the 182 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 1: page that you have to have. It's not that great 183 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: of a of a draft like remember the year Cam 184 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: Newton went one overall. That wasn't a mistake. But the 185 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: only bad picks in like the top fifteen were blaming 186 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: Gabbert and Christian Ponder and it was Julio and a J. 187 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: Green and Aaron Smith, you know, all these awesome prospects. Well, 188 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: this year doesn't have similar prospects. Like Patrick Peterson came 189 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: out in this draft, you gonna be the first pick 190 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 1: in the draft, you know. Or Tyron Smith comes out 191 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 1: of this draft. He's better than those tackles, you know, 192 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: so you might as well take the quarterback if there's 193 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: not an elite prospect. So I think these how DJ 194 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: is setting this up, I think is very possible. It's twelve. 195 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: The Vikings then take Derek Stingley. I would think they'd 196 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: be a static to do that. Yeah, they need corners bad. Yeah, 197 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: a lot of high picks on corners and getting nothing 198 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: out of them. This is an interesting one. At thirteen, 199 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: he has the Browns taking Trayvon Walker, the edge rusher 200 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: at a Georgia instead of a wide receiver. Okay, again, 201 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: we've said over and over thirteen wide receiver Browns. We're 202 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: not sure which receiver but it sure seems like a 203 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 1: very easy fit. Boyd Walker's name keeps going. He's catching 204 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: a lot of team like even like National Championship, those 205 00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: announcers didn't feature him. He's he's really fighting the people 206 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: in the know. Yeah. At fourteen, the Baltimore Ravens take 207 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: Trevor Penning the offensive tackle out of Northern Irewa. Interesting 208 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 1: he is Penning ahead of cross from miss stair or 209 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: miss um. That's the only note there. The Northern Iowa 210 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: tackles have been Yeah, yeah, right's they They take these 211 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: guys that were, you know, tight end types and grow 212 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: them into being tackles. That's uh the Bills dude right now, 213 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: he's been playing a lot this year too. This guy 214 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 1: is a little more physical. But yeah, it's a great formula. Um, 215 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: these are said and done. Something we always tried to 216 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: do it Pit was trying to get the six five 217 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: that can you know, can run, that's seventeen years old 218 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: and just feed him hundred steaks, you know, keep in 219 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: the weight room. Northern Aiswa seems to have found the 220 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: They pumped out a few of those guys over the years, 221 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: as like places like North Dakota. Yeah right, right, that's what. 222 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: That's what those schools kind of schools have to do. 223 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: You're not gonna get the blue chip offensive tackle prospect, 224 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: you get it. You bring in seven tight end types 225 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: and to be their defensive lineman or something that techniques 226 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: and yeah, we just called him body type guys. You 227 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: take a guy who's six six six steven yous, tell 228 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: him you're gonna be an offensive tack and plays power 229 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: forward and instead of you know, running up and down 230 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: the court all all offseason, you feed them lobsters and 231 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: steaks and weight room. Um. I don't know have any 232 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: clue who the strength and condition coaches there or North 233 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 1: Dakota State, but they should maybe be at Bama or 234 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: l s U or Yeah, they're doing they're doing good work. 235 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 1: It's fifteen with the Eagles first pick, they take George 236 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 1: karl Aftus. That's their type of pick. Yeah, I mean, 237 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure one of their three picks will be alignment, 238 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: whether they need him or not. This is how they're built. 239 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: I've seen some people actually like him better people than Thibodeaux. 240 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, he may be closer to those two than 241 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,079 Speaker 1: a clear third. That's all said and done. I hear 242 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 1: he's gonna test phenomenally one. Uh the Eagles with their 243 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: second pick in these first runs. At sixteen, take Drake 244 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: London the wide receiver at the USC off a compliment 245 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: for Davante Smith. Yeah, and I think Regor is a 246 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: total bust Um, the Stanford kid the year before that 247 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: they took ahead of white Side. He's a total bust. 248 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: I think he's a bigger but I think Arsega white 249 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: Side is a bigger bust than Reagor. I still haven't helped. 250 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: I still have hope for Regor. Yeah. Regor makes a 251 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: lot of mental under the three year rule, right, No, 252 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: I hear. I liked Regor a lot more coming out 253 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: of school. And he's got the physical tools. Yeah, I 254 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 1: mean Arsega Whiteside was not didn't have the physical tools. No, 255 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 1: there was a couple of good ones on the board 256 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: when they took him, and he's a big, slow dude. Yeah, 257 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: but they need a receiver. It really might be the 258 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: only thing on offense they really need if they're gonna 259 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: stick with herds. Yeah, get a number one type receiver. 260 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: One a type receiver. Um. At seventeen the Chargers, how 261 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: about this one? This is a new name, not a 262 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: right tackle or d tack. They take an offensive tackle. 263 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: But it's Bernard Raymond at of Central Michigan. Okay, again, 264 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: I haven't watched him. His name has went on all 265 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: the lists, but not quite that high, you know, so 266 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: d J must like him interesting the Saints. He certainly 267 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: knows the Chargers too. Yeah, right, the Saints at eighteen, 268 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: take Garrett Wilson, the wide receiver out of Ohio State. 269 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: If it's not quarterback, wide receiver makes a ton of sense. See, 270 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: that would be one there that If I'm the Steelers 271 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: and the like a guy like Garrett Wilson's available, it's 272 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: pretty intriguing. It's pretty intriguing. Folks. Just go YouTube highlight 273 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson. You'll be like, Oh, I wouldn't mind him. 274 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 1: He's jumping over and he almost I mean he almost 275 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: gets there. At eighteen. Yeah, I would imagine Michael Thomas 276 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: isn't back. We talked all week all year about how 277 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: bad their receivers are. Maybe they bring back Winston or whoever, 278 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: or their guy was PICKT and he's gone. I mean, 279 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: receiver could certainly be in play there. Plus they have 280 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: a ton of Ohio State guys. Yeah, they really like 281 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: a real pipeline at nineteen, the Philadelphia Eagles take Kenyan 282 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Green guard out of Texas A and M. He doesn't 283 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: go high in the last couple of monks we've talked about. 284 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: He's very good. Yeah, he's just really good. Was a 285 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: little bit of tackle background, big big. I mean him 286 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: and Dan morp together at A and M and last 287 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: year they won the the coach More Offensive Line of 288 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: the Year, you know, I mean, it's a good group 289 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: and he's the best of the group. I mean, it 290 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't break my heart if you say you're gonna be 291 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: the Steelers right guard son, you know, put him at 292 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: twenty and that might be a real good fit. That 293 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: would be a really nice The Steelers did that. If 294 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: you think back with Marquise Pouncey Gilbert, they drafted they 295 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: drafted the poundcy the first year, and they got Gilbert 296 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: in the second round the next year, and those guys 297 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: where your your starters for the next six years. Thinking, 298 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: you know, mid first round guards have worked out pretty 299 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: well for the Steelers's done okay there, and that's a 300 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: low bust rate. You plug him in and he's probably 301 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: gonna be a double we might be a home run. Yeah, 302 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: that leaves at twenty. The Steelers take Charles Cross, offensive 303 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: tackle Mississippi State. What's you have to say about him? 304 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: Because the Cross is way higher on every market board 305 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: I've seen. I'm just curious why he gets the twenty. 306 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: He said. Cross is a solid player on tape. He 307 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: plays with balance, He's got quick feet. The Steelers need 308 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: to continue to upgrade their offensive line, and Cross is 309 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: ready to play right away. Maybe he just doesn't like 310 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: maybe just like the other guys better right right right, 311 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: or DJ's next mock he goes to twelve and don't 312 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: show you how deep this draft is and tackles. If 313 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: you'd be happy with Penning or any of those guys, 314 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: we know they get pushed up, but I don't know 315 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: that six of them are gonna get pushed up. One 316 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: thing we haven't seen yet is linder Bomb taken. Would 317 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: you pass on I would not, or I would not 318 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: or a tackle? I mean, tackles to me are more 319 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: valuable than centers. But Lindar Bomb is a better prospect. 320 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: If if if this draft is that deep in tackles, right, 321 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: who who's the tenth one? Then? Right? You know what 322 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: I mean? That's what I'm much like last year when 323 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: you get a dan More in the fourth round. If 324 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: I can get a generational interior lineman in the first round, 325 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: that guy's gonna hold that position down for the next 326 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: ten years. Whether he plays guard or center, I don't care. 327 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: I don't care right right, I just want him staying 328 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: at center. A lot of people talk about Green moving 329 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: the guard for a Green. Wouldn't make me not take 330 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: one or the other. You know, at this point, like 331 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: together next year in camp, you can take a look 332 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: at it all preseason and say, Okay, this is our best, 333 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: this is how this works the best moving forward. And 334 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: of course DJ doesn't know this information either. If they 335 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: were to sign a center, then I'm out of the 336 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,959 Speaker 1: liner bomb conversation. Probably yeah, But still if he has 337 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: top ten grade and he's a twenty, help him and 338 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: put someone a guard that doesn't used to play, take 339 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: the best player, and you figure out where he fits 340 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: into the equation. And I guess one thing we'll be 341 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: doing that both of us would admit, now we don't 342 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: know is who is the tent through twelve best tackle? 343 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: Who's the Are there other centers you like? Is there 344 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: any guards in this class? In around two that you're 345 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: gonna love. We don't know those guys. I'll say this 346 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: about Cross as well. Yeah, that's something that is a 347 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: check mark in his favor. Red shirt sophomore and yeah, 348 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: to mention, he's very young, he's very athlete athletic, and 349 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people think his best football is ahead 350 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,640 Speaker 1: of him. It's twenty one the Patriot. It's then take 351 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis, defensive tackle out of Georgia. Should have a 352 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: problem with that. That is a very Patriot pick. I mean, 353 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: they love those hits in the middle of last year. Yeah, 354 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: and I really think the two things that they need 355 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: most are wide receivers and team speed. And he's the 356 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: slowest guy in the first round times a million because 357 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: he's three hundred million pounds. But I can see Belichick 358 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: falling in love with the guy. He values those big 359 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: pigs in the middle of your the defense. What he 360 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: wants to do is, if I have enough beef in 361 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: the middle, I never have to play a three four 362 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: or four three. I can always have nicol behind and 363 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: that's the beauty of it. And they still can't run 364 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: on me. I get it. I'm sure they love them, 365 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: but I would take a receiver there or somebody that 366 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: can really run. I'll say this as well, for as 367 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: much credit is everybody gives Belichick, and everybody was all 368 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 1: over Belichick all season on well, what did a great 369 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: job he did rebuilding this team. Yeah, they're picking one 370 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: spot after the Steelers. I don't think I trade their 371 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: roster for the quarterback. Aside, let's not talk a quarterback. 372 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: Would you trade the other fifty two for their fifty two? 373 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: I don't think I would know. I mean, Judean isn't 374 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 1: what you know what I mean like, I mean, I 375 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: would not. And so the Steelers in their quote unquote 376 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: rebuilding year made the playoffs, made the playoffs and finished 377 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: they get their their got beat bad and round one 378 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: you know against really good teams, the one the Patriots 379 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: in their rebuilding year one, seven and nine and didn't 380 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: make the plays and got the quarterback and they the 381 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: first round quarterback. Right. So anyways, at twenty two, the 382 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: Raiders take chrisal Love received rad of Ohio State. I 383 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: think the rugs, not the rugs was awesome, but they 384 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: were counting on him. I thought the offense was a 385 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: lot different without than guys like Za Jones had to 386 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: get a lot more run than they probably want. I 387 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: don't hate Jones either, but I mean a number one 388 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: type receiver I think makes some sense for then they 389 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: could go some directions to that leads for the Cardinals. 390 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: At twenty three, David A. Jabbo, the edge rushia out 391 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: of Michigan, another Red Shirts sophomore by far, the latest 392 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: we've seen him in the mock drafts we've gone. I 393 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: most people have him six seven in that neighborhood. I'm 394 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: sure Arizona be thrilled to get him. They they need 395 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: edge help and Chandler Jones might not be back at four. 396 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 1: I don't know about this one. Okay, the Cowboys taking 397 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: Nakobe Dean linebacker at a Georgia. They drafted three linebacker. 398 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: They drafted linebackers like crazy the last over the last 399 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: three or four years. If I mean, here's how I 400 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: could excuse it. Vanderesh isn't coming back. I think his 401 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: contracts I've already Smith is gone. Um, they might say, hey, Mike, 402 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: you're too good of an edge rusher to play in 403 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: the second level. You're just gonna line your hand up 404 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: in the dirt. And Dean is a very good prospect. 405 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's a he's kind of a Devin 406 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: Bush like prospect, you know, white, and he'sn't test extremely well. 407 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: He's not super huge, big time leader, great defense, you know. Yeah. 408 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean I would get it if those are the 409 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: that's the thought process. But they drafted three linebackers last 410 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: right at the Bengals, get Tyler Linden Bomb. That'd be terrible. 411 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I can see a center falling. I mean, 412 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: there aren't many. I remember watching Nick Mangold go and 413 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 1: this is one of the best centers I've ever seen. 414 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: I just knowing how Mike Tomlin values all this organizations 415 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: have like three in our lifetime, you know what I mean, 416 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: it'd be hard for them to pass on it, really hard. Yeah. 417 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: Is it linder Bomb or Linden bombomb with an R 418 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: with an R? Okay, okay, linder Bomb. I've called him both. 419 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: He's really good, though at twenty six it'd be terrible. 420 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: Fiends up there. The Dolphins take Daniel Filele good, I'm 421 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: glad it's he the huge one. Yeah, he's the huge one. 422 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: He's six nine six nine three eight and not you know, disgusting. 423 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: He can move. I mean he's a raw player. He's 424 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: kind of like backed in a couple of years ago. 425 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: Just a massive human beings that like the sixth or 426 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: seventh tackles. That is the sixth tackle Okay, yeah, that 427 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: sounds about right. Who the wod he end up with? 428 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: He ended up with Miami very much. Yeah, that's a 429 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: pick they got through that makes sense, more sense than 430 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: any of the other Dolphins picks we've seen the other moms. 431 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 1: The other ones have been linebackers and receivers and stuff. Uh. 432 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: Twenty seven, the Bills then take Kyler Gordon, the cornerback, 433 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: the other corner, the other corner at of Washington. It 434 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,160 Speaker 1: must have been terrible to throw against the two first 435 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: round corners. I think corners are most likely spot. Yeah, 436 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: the Titans, and at twenty eight take Kay Walker, the 437 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: linebacker at of Georgia. Okay, I think Evans is up 438 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: after this year. They did pick up Cunningham though, and 439 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: his contract. They're kind of a hard team to pick. 440 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 1: But I think i'd take the best receiver on the board. Yeah, 441 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: I'm not kinding on Julio. I'm not counting on I'd 442 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 1: even considered the top tight end. Yeah, even quarterback back. No, 443 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: he's not there. L was already gone. Yeah, Okay. At nine, 444 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: we do have our second or another quarterback take and 445 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: this would the third of the first round. Okay, we'd 446 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: pick it in korne so far, the Detroit Lions take 447 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: Malik Willis. See that makes a ton of sense, Like 448 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: you're not gonna take one at two or three or 449 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: wherever they put two. But at the end of the 450 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: first round with the fifth year option, you know, grab 451 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: one that's a developmental player that doesn't need to play 452 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: at all this year, truly red shirt him or play 453 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 1: in the last month when you're you know, one and ten. 454 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: That makes sense to me. And thirty the Chiefs take 455 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams, why receiver out of Alabama. He's We've talked 456 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: about him a lot. That would be awful for the 457 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: rest of the Yeah, right, because he's probably the number 458 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: one receiver if it's not for injury. But this is 459 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: a third mock in a road that he's gone in 460 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: the first round still, but ten picks later than he 461 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: would have or fifteen picks later than he would have. Yeah, yeah, 462 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: that would be scary. Um. At thirty one, the Bucks 463 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 1: take Johan Dotson, the wide receiver at of Penn State. 464 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: I guess receiver makes sense for them, especially if Godwin leaves. 465 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: Kevin's isn't young. I don't think they can afford to 466 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: bring Goblin back. Yeah, I can. Center back would bake 467 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: some sense to for them if they you know, yeah, 468 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean they drafted Trash last year, but I think 469 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: he's a lifetime back up. Yeah, that makes receiver. Wouldn't 470 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 1: be terrible pick for them. And then at thirty two 471 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,719 Speaker 1: of the Packers take Devonte Wyatt, the defensive tackle at 472 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: a Georgia. It's a bunch of Georgia defenders going in 473 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: that first round. He's the other d tackle, but he's 474 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: more of an upfield guy. He's also a big body, dude. 475 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: Um do they list his height and weight? I think 476 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: he's like six six. He's big too, not as big 477 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: as I'm just thinking. Could he be in play at 478 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: twenty It seems a little early for him. But you know, 479 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 1: Bob was talking even about I'm getting a big defensive 480 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: linement no matter what type of situation. Why it's I'd 481 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: rarely get one of those middle realm type guys than 482 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,360 Speaker 1: another another developmental guy that doesn't need you know, you're 483 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: not because he's not gonna play right away. The other 484 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: d tackle name I need to dig into is Yukon 485 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: as a guy in Sam Jones, who's also six five 486 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: three forty in that neighborhood, to that maybe he's a 487 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: Steeler second round guy. And and when not when when 488 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: I say things like knows I'm not talking about Hampton 489 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: will Fork, I mean we're talking you know, hopefully the Heloti, 490 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: Hilary Nada types. You know that a little bit. He's 491 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: somebody I need to dig into. He's been second third 492 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 1: on the defensive tackle lists i've seen. Um, it does 493 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: not look like a very good defensive tackle draft in 494 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: general though, no, especially it's not great. Um. The one 495 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: that there's there's a couple of guys there that that 496 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: I've kind of been a little bit intrigued with. I 497 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: want to learn some more about. Um kid out of Uh. Well, 498 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: there's an Alabama guy there, Fidarium Mathis I think is 499 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: I've seen the name. He's got the classic size that 500 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: the Steelers look for. Uh. And then Christopher Hinton out 501 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: of Michigan kind name rings of belts because his dad 502 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: was a former first round draft pick traded for Elway. 503 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 1: Rated for John Elway six six four or three ten. 504 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: How much. Mike Tomlin likes the bloodlines. Yeah, right right, 505 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: if you're talking like day two in that neighborhood's connection 506 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: six four three ten, he's he's almost he looks if 507 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: when you see him in uniform, like a young Tyson 508 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: and Lululu, that kind of build like yeah, you know, 509 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: as an anchor ish type build but not you know, 510 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 1: but has a little bit of juice and you know, interesting, 511 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm excited to learn about him. And his dad was 512 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, dad was really good. That really seems 513 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: like a Steeler doesn't Michigan with bloodlines, and it checks 514 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 1: a couple of bocks, and it checks off a couple 515 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: of the boxes. That always gets my radar, like, I 516 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: don't know anything if he's good or not, but I 517 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: bet I've seen him play a couple of times and 518 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, all right, but yeah, So that's Arry 519 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah's first try at the mock draft. That's three 520 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: mock drafts now we've seen from from the national guys 521 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: this week.

You know, things are 524 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 1: starting to take a little bit more shape when it 525 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 1: comes to the draft, and then soon after that we 526 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: might see some I don't I'm not predicting it, but 527 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,959 Speaker 1: a team could trade picks for Russell Wilson or something too. 528 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: Something could happened. There's a lot of stuff on the 529 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 1: horizon that changes. Yeah. Really, if you start looking at 530 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: the middle of March show when free agency starts, isn't 531 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: that far away far away at all? Yeah, I mean 532 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: you're talking about seven weeks.
