1
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: When it comes to the NFL Draft, they're not just

2
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: spinning the wheel in Vegas. But will the Raiders' latest

3
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: new regime go all in on a big name quarterback

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: drafts top running back or maybe somebody else here what

5
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll had to say today about Shador Sanders, Ashton

6
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: Genty and more. Our guy Adam Rank is a new

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: mock draft out and he's got the Raiders taking a

8
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: cornerback with a C. It's actually not even the most

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: stunning pick the Rank has.

10
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 2: He will tell you why.

11
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: There's a difference between what teams will do and what

12
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: he says they should do. Somebody is going to get

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: a stunt edge rusher from UCLA. But where will Oluwa Femi,

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: Olin Danjoe Land and when we'll get answers when Femi

15
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: joins our Omarweeze to discuss his future. It's almost here.

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: Welcome inside with the inside there's alongside Judy Battista, I

17
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 1: am Tom Pelisero. This is our final show before Draft week,

18
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: not our final show.

19
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 3: We'll be back.

20
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: We'll be in Green Bay on Monday, but final show.

21
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: It's the week before the week. We are now just

22
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,759
Speaker 1: six days away from the NFL Draft kicking off in

23
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: Green Bay, Wisconsin, and the Tennessee Titans officially being on

24
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: the clock. Of course, there has been ample speculation. As

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: you see the final touches, well some of the first touches,

26
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: it looks like being put on the draft stage outside

27
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: lambeau Field, a lot of discussion about the number one

28
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: pick being cam Ward, and our Daniel Jeremiah, in speaking

29
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: with reporters earlier today, certainly does not disagree with Ward

30
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: landing in Tennessee.

31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 4: Sure feels like a slam dunk. I'd be pretty shocked

32
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 4: if they didn't go with cam Ward there with the

33
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 4: first overall pick. It feels like, you know, Hunter two,

34
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 4: and then Abdul Carter three, and then with the Patriots,

35
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 4: I just have continually heard that offensive tackle was going

36
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 4: to be addressed, and I've continually heard that, you know,

37
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: that's Will Campbell's spot.

38
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguar sitting at five. And then you get to

39
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: one of the most fascinating teams in round one, a

40
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: new day again in Las Vegas. Shdor Sanders, Ashtrion genty

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: certainly popular picks land Zer Line going with Jalen Walker

42
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: as the pick at number six, overall, did John Spytech

43
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: and Pete Carroll maybe drop some draft clues today?

44
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 5: The idea is to add e leade players at any position,

45
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 5: and I don't I don't try to devalue any certain position.

46
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 5: I mean, there's times in games where there's there's nobody

47
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 5: you'd rather have than the best kicker in the league, too, right,

48
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 5: I mean in that moment. So there's certain ways to

49
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 5: build a team, and I just I don't know where

50
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 5: we got to a place where we don't feel.

51
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 6: Like running backs are valued.

52
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 5: I I come from the University of Michigan, to my core,

53
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 5: and those guys were certainly really valued there. So it's

54
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 5: hard for me to get away from that. You guys

55
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 5: have all done your investigative journalism well enough to know

56
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 5: that we've brought some quarterbacks in and that wasn't by

57
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 5: accident at it by any means. And we're we remain

58
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 5: open to the most important position in sports to get right.

59
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 5: And we're super excited to have Junior here and we

60
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 5: continue to expect them to be here for a while.

61
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 6: But you can't have too many of those guys right now.

62
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 7: We're building this team, and so much of that comes

63
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 7: from the character and the attitude and the makeup of

64
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 7: the people, And so as we draft all the way

65
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 7: throughout the rounds, you know that's going to be a

66
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 7: huge factor in all of our decisions. And we're really

67
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 7: connected and our thinking in that regard. So I know

68
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 7: we both feel very comfortable about going into this because

69
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 7: we know we have that kind of baseline that we're

70
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 7: starting from.

71
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: Let's welcome in our Steve Whites to the conversation.

72
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: Steve.

73
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: You hear Pete Carroll and John spy Tech talking right there.

74
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: They've got some building blocks. You got brock Bauers, you

75
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: got Max Crosby, you traded for Geno Smith. But there

76
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: are a lot of spots and holes they've got to

77
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: fill on that roster. How do you envision these two

78
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: tag teaming this thing in their first draft together next week?

79
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean Christian Wilkins, you know Smith, some players there.

80
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 8: But you heard Pete Carroll say right there, they're building,

81
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 8: not rebuilding, not adding to a core.

82
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 6: They're building.

83
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 8: And part of the thing that that a spy Tech

84
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 8: and Carroll want to make sure people knew is that

85
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 8: they were on alignment. They were asked a question, with

86
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 8: all things being equal, who has final decision making power,

87
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 8: and they shot down a battle of egos or structure

88
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 8: right away. Pete Carroll said there will be a consensus

89
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 8: on these draft picks, with John spy Tech saying, if

90
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 8: we don't have a consensus, then we're probably not going

91
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 8: to take that player. So they're saying they're in alignment

92
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 8: on the types of players that they want, and they

93
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 8: stressed character, passion, and competitive spirit. We know that's big

94
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 8: with Pete Carroll, the competition part of it. So spy

95
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 8: Tech was saying, hey, the fact that they brought these

96
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 8: players in, they were looking at them eye to eye,

97
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 8: even in a fifteen minute interview at the combine. They

98
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 8: hope they can get some information about the kids' willingness

99
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 8: to compete in whatever way that they've done that because

100
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 8: that is such a huge aspect of what they're trying

101
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 8: to have on their roster. Want a bunch of guys

102
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 8: who go out there every day to practice, like Max Crosby.

103
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 9: They don't have that many Max Crosby's on that roster.

104
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: Let's face it.

105
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 9: They have a handful of very good players and then

106
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 9: a roster with a whole lot of holes. I was

107
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 9: struck by the fact that they sure didn't slam the

108
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 9: door on the quarterback question when he said, you know,

109
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 9: we didn't bring those guys in by accident. That certainly

110
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 9: makes you think they're looking seriously at a quarterback, even

111
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 9: if it's not with the first round draft pick. Steve,

112
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 9: what are your impressions about what direction they're going to

113
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 9: go here?

114
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 8: Yeah, they've got nine, they've got nine overall picks, and

115
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 8: to me, they made it abundantly clear a quarterback will

116
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 8: be used or us in some way to acquire a quarterback,

117
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 8: even if it's used as trade bait to get a

118
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 8: veteran quarterback in there. Let's not forget what Pete Carroll

119
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 8: did when he first got to the Seattle on twenty twelve.

120
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 8: They spent at the time thirty six million dollars on

121
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 8: a three year deal to get veteran Matt Flynn to

122
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 8: be their starter. What happens they draft Russell Wilson in

123
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 8: the third round. Oh, and guess who beat out Matt

124
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 8: Flynn to be the starter. Carroll, we talked about the

125
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 8: competitive spirit.

126
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 6: This is what he's all about.

127
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 8: So again, I think they're going to have a quarterback

128
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 8: in there, and not just a training camp arm somebody

129
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 8: who can come in and give Geno Smith a run

130
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 8: for his money, even though Gino Smith is their guy.

131
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 8: Another position that they didn't shut it down. We heard

132
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 8: right there is running back. We know Ashton Genty out

133
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 8: of Boise State, if he is there at six, could

134
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 8: be somebody who's highly appealing to them. We know Pete

135
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 8: Carroll wants to run the football. He will draft a

136
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 8: running back in the first round. We saw him do

137
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 8: that with Seattle. We saw at USC he had star

138
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 8: running back after star running back. So that is a

139
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 8: core type of player we'll see later in the draft.

140
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 8: Offensive tackle. We know Colton Miller's having some contract discussions.

141
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 8: They got a lot of ways that they can go.

142
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 8: But you know, you heard some slight things in there

143
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 8: with Spy Tech talking about, hey, we value skilled players.

144
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 8: You know, we don't undervalue running backs the quarterback. They

145
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 8: got a lot of ways they can go. But I

146
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 8: think those two valuable spots on offense will be fairly

147
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 8: high on the Raiders priority list.

148
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: Is a steep hill to climb in the AFC West.

149
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: Everybody chasing the Kansas City Chiefs, who have made a

150
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: habit of go into the Super Bowl basically every year.

151
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: That list also includes the Denver Bronco Whs took a

152
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: big step forward last season in Sean Payton's second year

153
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: at the Helm, getting into the playoffs behind their rookie

154
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: quarterback bow Knicks. This is as close to a mock

155
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: draft consensus as you're going to see. Six mock drafts.

156
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: Five votes for Omrion Hampton, who we had on the

157
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: show last night. Sean Payton, you got any answers for us?

158
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 6: There's two.

159
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 10: Great allies that I think for quarterback play. To help

160
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 10: quarterback play, it's real good defense and obviously a real

161
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 10: good running game, and so I appreciate that term weapons.

162
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 10: And yet I think, look, they'll be focused on the

163
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 10: running back position. It's a pretty good draft for running backs.

164
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: Not many more valuable draft picks in recent years than

165
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: Brock Purty, mister irrelevant in the draft back in twenty

166
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: twenty two. And now he's in a position where he's

167
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: looking for a market level contract. Besides him yet to

168
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: agree on exactly what that deal would look like, though

169
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: one of his division rivals, Poka Nakua, actually has some

170
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: thoughts on the situation.

171
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: Brock Prudy, is he going to get a five.

172
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 6: I don't think.

173
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 10: So.

174
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 6: Do you think he's going to go with a four?

175
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 11: It's going to start with a four?

176
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 10: Yeah?

177
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 6: High four?

178
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 10: Umm?

179
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 11: No, I think mid for a forty five?

180
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 6: I think so.

181
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I think if he does that, that'd be

182
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 2: smart for him and them.

183
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, I think he's he seems like a

184
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 12: smart guy. I think he like there's still they have

185
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 12: a chance to still be in their window. And I

186
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 12: think if if he goes for a five, that the

187
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 12: window closes.

188
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 6: Right.

189
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: Puka would be a hard negotiator because there is absolutely

190
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: no way the brock Perty's new contract is going to

191
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: start with a four. Will set that aside. Let's need

192
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 1: somewhere following that in the back of his head for

193
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: whenever Pooka is up for a new deal. You don't

194
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: normally hear that type of open comment Steve, about a

195
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: player talking about someone else's contract. Here, it's a real thing, though,

196
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: when we've already seen the forty nine ers taking some

197
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,719
Speaker 1: steps forward in terms of moving on from some high

198
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 1: price veteran players, to face the reality that once you

199
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,199
Speaker 1: have a rookie quarterback who's no longer on that rookie contract,

200
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: things do change. From a roster building perspective.

201
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, Tom, let's get to your point, Poop.

202
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 8: I'm sorry, brock Perty is not starting at a mid

203
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 8: four contract. He has been vastly underpaid based on the

204
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 8: production over his first three years. I mean, he just

205
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 8: made but a million or so dollars last year. There's

206
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 8: quarterbacks in college making more money than him. So this

207
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 8: is why a deal hasn't been done yet. I mean

208
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 8: his side wants a market deal, like fifty fifty million

209
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 8: dollars annual plus type of deal. But the Niners also known.

210
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 8: These are from conversations that we had the league meetings

211
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 8: that they're negotiating kind of against themselves. Right if you

212
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 8: were on the open market, would he get that type

213
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 8: of deal that? That's what they're battling now. It doesn't

214
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 8: sound like they're that far away, but clearly some hurdles

215
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 8: to get to now. In terms of Pook and the Kua, Pooky,

216
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 8: you gotta understand when you do a podcast that goes

217
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 8: out everywhere, because guess what, you're elegent for an extension

218
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 8: after this season, dude, And if you keep producing, I

219
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 8: keep producing, You're going to be in there with the

220
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 8: Aman Ross and Brown guys of thirty million plus annually.

221
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,719
Speaker 8: You want people talking about your pockets. You gotta be

222
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 8: careful doing this type of stuff.

223
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: My man.

224
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't think we can emphasize enough how extremely

225
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 9: unusual it is to hear a player talk about another

226
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 9: player's contract, especially a player suggesting that the other player

227
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 9: take a below market deal.

228
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 2: You just don't hear players say that.

229
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 9: I certainly would wonder how that was received in the

230
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 9: Rock Party camp, or in any camp, and certainly I'm

231
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 9: sure it is being filed away in the Rams front office.

232
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 2: For future use.

233
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 9: I also sort of take his sho with the idea

234
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 9: that you can't win if you have a quarterback with

235
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 9: a contract that starts with the number five. I mean,

236
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 9: we just saw the Eagles do it, and Jalen Hurts

237
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 9: contract has an average annual value.

238
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 2: That starts the five. So it is doable.

239
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 9: You have to have a team that's really good at

240
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 9: drafting and really good in free agency the way the

241
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 9: Eagles were, and really smart about how they structure the contracts.

242
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 9: And yes, the Eagles are going through a little bit

243
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 9: of a period now where they've lost some players in

244
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 9: free agency. And yes, the San Francisco forty nine ers

245
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 9: have had to let some players go in preparation for

246
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 9: this rock Party contract.

247
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,599
Speaker 2: But I do think it's a bit overstated.

248
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 9: The idea that you can't have a highly paid quarterback

249
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 9: and have your windows shut completely.

250
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 2: That's just not true.

251
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 9: The salary cap is rising, it's rising dramatically every year.

252
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 2: It's doable.

253
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 9: I would say that, Pooka, just tap the brakes on

254
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 9: your negotiating skills. Make sure your agent is not quite

255
00:11:58,880 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 9: listening to you.

256
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 13: Ward back of the end zone, talk for a touchdown,

257
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 13: and guess so, mister rival in space to the put

258
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 13: on touchdown?

259
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 2: Warn another one on one, drops it over the shoulder.

260
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 13: Throws into the end zone, Todd ten yard line. Ward's

261
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 13: gonna take off, diving touchdown. Cam Ward, there's the wheels.

262
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: Cam Ward the presumptive number one pick to the Tennessee Titans.

263
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: It's at number two where things could start to get weird.

264
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: It certainly did in our guy Adam Rank's recent mock draft.

265
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: Now this is not, as the headline shows there, what

266
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: Rank thinks will happen. He's taking the bold choice of

267
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: telling you what each team should do in round one.

268
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: Rank here to explain further on the insiders with me,

269
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: Tom Pelicero as well as Judy Batista rank you went

270
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: chalk with that number one pick with cam Ward two

271
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: through four? What the hell happens here?

272
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 14: What do you mean if the Cleveland Browns are calling

273
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 14: me up and they're like, hey, who should we take

274
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 14: at number two?

275
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 11: Dude?

276
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 3: Take up Dual Carter?

277
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 11: What are you thinking?

278
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 14: You got Joe Flacco, you got Kenny Pickett, your solid

279
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 14: at quarterback. Why not fourtify that defensive side? It was

280
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 14: two years ago the Browns made a run to the

281
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 14: playoffs with Joe Flacco at quarterback, and you're still in

282
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 14: a division with Joe Burrow, with Lamar Jackson. Those guys

283
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 14: seem to be pretty good. Why don't you fortify your

284
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 14: defensive line? Miles Garrett ab Duel Carter give you a

285
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 14: huge advantage and you go out there and you win

286
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 14: with defense, and you win with that.

287
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett.

288
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 14: As for the Giants, listen, I know the Giants are

289
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 14: kind of in this mode where like, hey, you made

290
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 14: a mistake. You gotta go up and make it up

291
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 14: to everybody. Yeah, we shouldn't have let Saquon Barkley.

292
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 3: Go to the Eagles.

293
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,719
Speaker 14: But listen, what would you say if we brought in

294
00:13:55,320 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 14: ash Jin Genty to be the guy to replace Saquon Barkley. Oh,

295
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 14: this feels like, hey, I forgot to bring a gift.

296
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 14: I'm bringing Ashton Genty. But that's exactly what It's exactly

297
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 14: what you need to do. Like I'm so sorry I

298
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 14: forgot it was your birthday. Here's Jashion Genty.

299
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 6: Pretty good.

300
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 14: They will have to address the offensive line at some point.

301
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 6: You do that later.

302
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 14: And for the Patriots, let's get fun. Patriots, do you

303
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 14: have the worst offensive line in the NFL?

304
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: Well? Pro Football Focus seems to think think so. However,

305
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 3: I don't care. You worry about that later.

306
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 14: Much in the same way as my kids are doing

307
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 14: homework right now because they spent their entire spring break

308
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 14: goofing around.

309
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 3: You worry about that later.

310
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 14: Go get Travis Hunter, let him be your wide receiver

311
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 14: with Stefan Diggs and all that good stuff. A dragway

312
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 14: and by the way, let him play let them play corner. Hey,

313
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 14: I don't know if you've paid attention to baseball. The

314
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 14: Angels brought in sho Hey Otane seven years ago, and

315
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 14: they said, listen, you can pitch and you can hit,

316
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 14: and it worked out pretty well. Show Hey turned out

317
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 14: to be a pretty good player. Let's be fun, NFL

318
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 14: let Travis Hunter play both to the football.

319
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 9: I can't imagine the reaction. I'm going to be at

320
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 9: the New York Giants, and I can't imagine the reaction

321
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 9: at the Giants draft.

322
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 2: Party if they now would draft a running back. I

323
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 2: think it would sort of be like, oh, now you

324
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: like running backs?

325
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 9: Two years too, eate and they pass on Travis Hunter.

326
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 9: In the meantime, all right, let's go. You've got three

327
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 9: tight ends going in the first round. That hasn't happened

328
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 9: since twenty seventeen. It's only happened three times in NFL

329
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 9: draft history.

330
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 14: Explain yourself, Well, I really think that the NFL is

331
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 14: a copycat league, and people will look at what happened

332
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 14: with the Las Vegas Raiders last year.

333
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 3: At brock Bowers. Hey, by the way, I picked that

334
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 3: last year too.

335
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 14: I told the Raiders to take brock Bowers, and you

336
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 14: guys on YouTube, this guy is an idiot.

337
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: Okay, how did that work out?

338
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 14: Also, like Sam Laporta has done really well with the Lions,

339
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 14: and obviously Travis Kelce what he's meant to the Kansas

340
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 14: City Chief Chiefs. It is really a point of emphasis now.

341
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 14: I think teams want to go out there and get

342
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 14: tight ends at number five. Know why people are assuming

343
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 14: that the Jags are just gonna pick Mason Graham or

344
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 14: somebody on defense?

345
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 3: You know what you need to help out Trevor Lawrence.

346
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 3: Enough is enough.

347
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 14: You cannot let Trevor Lawrence go out there with Jess

348
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 14: Brian Thomas Junior and think that's gonna be good enough.

349
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 14: Christian Kirk's no longer on that team, go out there

350
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 14: and get Tyler Warren. Let him go out there and

351
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 14: do some damage. I think that would be a huge

352
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 14: spot for him. Iink Colston Lovelin is going to be

353
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 14: a great player in this league. And last season the

354
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 14: New York.

355
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 3: Jets passed up, passed up on brock Bowers.

356
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 14: They also passed up on Brian Thomas Junior, which I

357
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 14: told him to do. But you go out there and

358
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 14: get you go out there and you get Lovelin, and

359
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 14: now you pair him with Garrett Wilson, Brece Hall. Justin

360
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 14: Fields now has a lot of options to be successful

361
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 14: for the New York Jets.

362
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 3: Let him be the quarterback of the future.

363
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 14: And obviously if you look at most people's mind I

364
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 14: didn't look at anybody's mock drafts.

365
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 3: I don't look at him. I don't want to know.

366
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 3: A lot of people have a tight end slated for

367
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 3: the LA Chargers. I do too. I guess gonna be

368
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 3: Mason Taylor.

369
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 14: Mason Taylor is actually a better fit for the Chargers

370
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 14: because he plays all three downs.

371
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 3: It's not like, Okay, he's.

372
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 14: Coming into the game, They're gonna throw the ball for sure.

373
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 14: Jim Harbaugh wants a tight end who could block. Mason

374
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 14: Taylor would be that guy. I think that's a good

375
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 14: spot for him.

376
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: We've heard over and overthrow out the pre draft process, Frank,

377
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: this is not a great wide receiver draft class. You

378
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: don't have those top ten type prospects here, but you

379
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: gave one of the Panthers at eight. Yeah.

380
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 3: I love Matthew Golden.

381
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 14: I think when you look at the wide receiver prospects

382
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 14: coming out right now, Matthew Golden is a primetime player,

383
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 14: someone that steps up into the moment makes good plays.

384
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 14: He was viewed as the number two wide receiver for

385
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 14: Texas coming into last season, but you know what, he

386
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 14: ended up being the number one guy. And when I

387
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 14: think of fit for the Carolina Panthers, when I see

388
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 14: Matthew Golden, I kind of see a lot of Chris Olave.

389
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 3: So I think this be a great option for them.

390
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 14: And again, you need to help out Bryce Young last

391
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 14: season excellent work going out there, getting a couple of

392
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 14: guards helping them out. I think Matthew Golden is the

393
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 14: way to go. I also think too, like don't sleep

394
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 14: on the tight end position. You have not replaced the

395
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 14: tight end since Greg Olsen left. I don't think that

396
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 14: the Bears are going to gift you Cole Comet like

397
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 14: the Bears gifted you Greg Olsen years ago. That might

398
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 14: also be an opportunity to go out and draft a

399
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 14: guy if somebody like Colson Lovelin falls to them.

400
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 9: All right, here's an evergreen question for the NFL network.

401
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 9: What should the Dallas Cowboys do?

402
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 14: You know what, if the Dallas Cowboys wanted to be fun,

403
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 14: you know what they would do.

404
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,680
Speaker 3: They would draft Shad or Sanders. That would be amazing,

405
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 3: That would be the funnest thing ever.

406
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 14: But I do have them going with a running back.

407
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 14: I think Hampton makes the most sense for them. That

408
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 14: he's been in the building, and the Dallas Cowboys really

409
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 14: need some offensive playmakers.

410
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 3: I know Ted McMillan could be another great option here.

411
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 14: But I thought with Steve Smith Senior, and I'm like,

412
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 14: I don't like Ted McMillan anymore, just kidd, but I

413
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 14: really think Hampton would be a great pick. I know

414
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 14: that the people out there who disagreed with me are

415
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 14: like they got Javonte Williams, like I exactly, they got

416
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:14,479
Speaker 14: Davonte Williams.

417
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 3: You need some firepower there.

418
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 14: I think the Cowboys need to be less conservative with

419
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 14: this pick. Do something crazy. They've done a really nice

420
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 14: job of drafting in the past. Go for Hampton, and

421
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 14: when he goes out there and rushes for fourteen hundred

422
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 14: yards and scores twelve touchdowns.

423
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 3: And you win your fantasy league, you'll thank me.

424
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: Last thing, ranking your what team should do mock draft

425
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: first twenty picks, There's only one quarterback. It's cam Ward

426
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,479
Speaker 1: at number one. Here's the Steelers. They can pick whichever

427
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: the others they.

428
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 3: Want, and they choose should or Sanders.

429
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 15: I don't know.

430
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 14: I think the Steelers obviously need to draft a quarterback

431
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 14: at some point.

432
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 3: Whether you sign Aaron Rodgers or not.

433
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,719
Speaker 14: They need to go out there and get a quarterback,

434
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 14: and they need to get their quarterback of the future.

435
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 3: It's some point.

436
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 14: Shadur Sanders makes a lot of sense. Now, obviously he

437
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 14: still needs some growth. This would be a situation where

438
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 14: you want him to sit on the bench and go

439
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 14: out there and grow and eventually become the starting quarterback.

440
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,520
Speaker 14: They did it years ago with Ben Roethlisberger when they

441
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 14: already had Tommy Maddox on the roster. They drafted Ben

442
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 14: Roethlisberger and sort of that was actually in week I

443
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 14: think it was Week nine when he eventually became the starter.

444
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 14: But Shadur Sanders makes a lot of sense for me

445
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 14: right here. Although I don't know what about Milroe?

446
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:28,959
Speaker 16: What about Milroe?

447
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 3: Would Milrow be fun? It's got to be somebody who's

448
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 3: gonna sit. Although at the same.

449
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 1: Time, change your mind.

450
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 14: Maybe I don't know. I'm a listen It's like listen.

451
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 14: My whole thing is like what you should do? Things change?

452
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 3: You ask me right now. If you're flying into Chicago

453
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 3: right now, you're like, where should I go? Be like,

454
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 3: go to Portillo's. You asked me on Monday, I might

455
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 3: say Geno Zis.

456
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 11: I don't know.

457
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 14: I might change my mind. Tom I'm allowed to do

458
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 14: these things. This I'm unconventional. You know this.

459
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: When Shudur Sanders came on the show last week from

460
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Airport after his visit, he had a big

461
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: grin when talking about Mike Tomlin in that organization. You

462
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: could at least see the logic if he ends up

463
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: still on the board there at twenty at maybe NFL

464

471
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 15: Obviously, the expectations that he's had, you know, throughout his

472
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 15: college career and then taking Colorado to new heights like that.

473
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 6: You know, that's not easy.

474
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 4: The knock is a little bit of the arm strength,

475
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,959
Speaker 4: and then you know, holding the ball took a lot

476
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 4: of sacks.

477
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 15: With my experience of playing, like if I can show

478
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 15: my guys you know that I can get hit and

479
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 15: then keep going, that just shows a lot about you know,

480
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 15: your leadership and just being able to learn to get

481
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,160
Speaker 15: the ball out play within the timing of the offense

482
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 15: and concepts. So I think those are things that he

483
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 15: has and will continue to.

484
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 7: Learn and development, no doubt.

485
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: Coming up later on in the show, let's talk about

486
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,000

491

492
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: anybody really in a practice setting like that. Hopefully he

493
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: doesn't hit our Omar Ruiz. That's probably gonna end the

494
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 1: interview early Omar with Femmi. Next on the Insiders.

Speaker 1: prospect femi Ola day Joe, including this one with our

519
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: Omar Ruiz.

520
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 17: Happy to be joined now by my fellow Sacramento native,

521
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 17: Oloa femi Ola Dejo out of UCLA OLOI. It's great

522
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 17: to see you one week out from the draft. How

523
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 17: you feeling, man?

524
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 16: I'm excited, very grateful, very grateful to be where I'm

525
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 16: at right now, and that's gonna be an exciting time.

526
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 17: We've been expecting your name to be called on next

527
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 17: Friday or a Day two prospect Round two, round three.

528
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 17: What have you been hearing? Where are you expecting to

529
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 17: go hobbly Friday?

530
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 16: That's the plan, Laura Willing, But I think it's a

531
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 16: matter of not being too focused. On that and just

532
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 16: knowing wherever you go it's a new chapter. Everything that

533
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 16: passes behind and now it's a second contract. That's the mindset.

534
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 17: We're a week away now from perhaps your life changing

535
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 17: for the better and becoming a full time NFL player.

536
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 17: But I know the pre draft process is so arduous

537
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 17: and so many of your UCLA to defensive teammates have

538
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 17: gone through this layout. To Lattu, one of your buddies

539
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 17: was the first defensive player taken last year. One of

540
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 17: your buddies from this year, Carson Swessinger, also going through

541
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 17: the process. I know you guys ran into each other

542
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 17: a couple of weeks ago at the airport. Correct, what

543
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,959
Speaker 17: a coincidence that was. But what has this process been

544
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 17: like for you now here we are a week away

545
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 17: from the draft.

546
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think, in all honesty, he's been a blessing.

547
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 16: You know. I've heard from a fellow Sacramento native, Eric Armstead,

548
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 16: that is going to be a long process.

549
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 6: But just stay.

550
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 16: Grounded, take a day by day, be your feeder, and

551
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 16: don't look too far ahead, but rather just take a

552
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 16: day by day.

553
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 11: Well, you brought up Eric Armstead.

554
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 17: I want to talk about him for a little bit

555
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 17: because I was talking to one of your senior Bowl coaches,

556
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 17: kJ Wright, who is a great linebacker in the NFL

557
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 17: for a long time, and he said that your game

558
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 17: reminded him of Eric Armstead. And that's not a coincidence, right,

559
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 17: I guess not.

560
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 6: I didn't know that. You know, Eric is a big

561
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 6: man seven, but.

562
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 15: I mean.

563
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 17: Your game reminded him of him because you could line

564
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,400
Speaker 17: up inside outside, and how you rush the passer, over

565
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 17: the center, over the guard. You can take on the

566
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 17: tackles in every different way.

567
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 18: Your versatility like that, Yeah, I think shout out to

568
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 18: all my Pop Warner coaches, middle school coaches, high school

569
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 18: coaches kind of played every position in football besides quarterback

570
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 18: and defensive back.

571
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 16: So just trying to apply it to the football field

572
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 16: and just be a versatile athlete.

573
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 11: Yeah.

574
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 17: Speaking of that versatility, we know that you transition in

575
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 17: college just last season as a matter of fact, from

576
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 17: linebacker to out on the edge rushing the passer. What's

577
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 17: been the most difficult challenge to making that position change

578
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 17: for you.

579
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 16: I want to say it's been a difficult challenge anything

580
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 16: like to like, oh this is insane, but just continuously

581
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 16: get in reps and perfecting my technique, my craft, my

582
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 16: past rush. Of course, just being more consistent playing the

583
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 16: run and setting edges.

584
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 6: Yeah.

585
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 17: Well, obviously you've worked your way to one of the

586
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 17: top edge prospects in this draft. I want you to

587
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 17: go through some of your highlights here, we have this

588
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 17: tape prepared. I want you to describe your style of

589
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 17: play for us, looking at some of your game film

590
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 17: from this past season.

591
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 6: All right, let's do it. Okay, this is junior year.

592
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 16: Just I believe this is as far as on drop right,

593
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 16: I saw I knew in.

594
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 6: A round was coming right now, You've got to get skinny,

595
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 6: make the play. Let's see, we got.

596
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 11: One of your many tackles for this is the first

597
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 11: play of the game.

598
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 16: It was a ringo blitz stump. This is big cymember

599
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 16: over the guard, cross chopped fell, a little bit effort, chase,

600
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 16: pursue exactly, Lord of Guys. So that game, it's tough.

601
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 16: We lost usc man.

602
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 17: But yeah, yeah, I know you've made nine Top thirty visits,

603
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 17: You've met with eleven different teams. What do the teams

604
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 17: want to know about you here in the pre draft process?

605
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 16: Yeah, just who I am and how I carry myself?

606
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,200

00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:14,240
Speaker 16: might be the first ni jering quarterback in the NFL. Ever,

611

00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 6: So there's a lot of greats that are great for

628
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 6: me to watch.

629
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 11: Yeah, we saw some of that.

630
00:28:58,440 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 10: T J.

631
00:28:58,840 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 11: Watt their tape.

632
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 17: What do you like about his game or what are

633
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 17: some of the things you're trying to pick up from

634
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 17: these guys, the greats in the NFL.

635
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, just there.

636
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 16: I'm trying to see their thought process on the field

637
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 16: when they're playing play action, or how they're taking on blocks,

638
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,959
Speaker 16: or how they like to defeat guys who open their

639
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 16: shoulders or vertical sets, two hand punchers, et cetera, and

640
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 16: just how they.

641
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 6: Look at this guy freaking hature.

642
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,959
Speaker 16: You've got a lot of eff a lot of motors,

643
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 16: So just trying to study out what makes them great.

644
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, you mentioned TJ.

645
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 17: Watt, Max Grosby, a couple of guys that play with

646
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 17: incredible motors. Okay, here we are, Holo, a femmi one

647
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 17: week away from the draft. What is your last appeal

648
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 17: to the teams to take you and make them make them.

649

Speaker 6: I'm a pro. I'm grounded. I feel very confident.

652
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 16: I'm going to home the market out on top of that,

653
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 16: you know, but on top of that, I'm going to

670

671
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,800

00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 6: work I'll put in, I'll have this opportunity to, you know,

687
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 6: peace out, and we are here. The twenty twenty five

688
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 6: NFL Scouting Combine is.

689
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 16: The peak everything we're working too for every kid's dream

690
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 16: to make it to an NFL combine and go.

691
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 6: Crazy, and you got to go make it happen.

692
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 11: I'm gonna let it fly, take a deep breath, and

693
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 11: game on.

694
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 16: So I'm gonna feel confident myself, you know, confident the

695
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 16: work I'll put in and watch up.

696
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 2: Now, welcome back to the Insiders. That's Tom. I am

697
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 2: Judy and Tom.

698
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 9: You have a story up on NFL dot com right

699
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 9: now with the players you think could sneak into the

700
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 9: first round as maybe surprise candidates, and you've got them

701
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 9: all over a bunch of positions.

702
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 2: So let's just go down the list.

703
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 9: Let's start with the quarterback you think could be a first.

704
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:42,479
Speaker 1: Rounder, Tyler Schuck from Louisville. Judy is helping himself as

705
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: much as anybody through this pre draft process. Seven years

706
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 1: of college. He's been in college football so long. He

707
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: was backing up Justin Herbert at Oregon, had a bunch

708
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: of different injuries. Put it together last year with the Cardinals,

709
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: and as he's gotten in front of coaches what they

710
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: see as an older guy. Obviously he's more mature. He's

711
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: playing in the pro style, off had responsibility at the

712
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage on his shoulders. There's a lot that's

713
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: familiar to coaches. We'll see if he pushed it all

714
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: the way up till round one, Judy, but certainly I

715
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 1: would not rule it out.

716
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 9: Especially with so many teams in desperate need of a quarterback.

717
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 9: All right, let's talk about the wide receiver on your.

718
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: List, Mecca Abuca from Ohio State. And yes, he has

719
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,320
Speaker 1: been in the top twenty on Daniel Jeremiah's list, but

720
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: I haven't seen his name in the mock drafts on

721
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: NFL dot Com. What teams like about Abuca is, obviously

722
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: he's been highly productive. He's been durable, arguably more explosive

723
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: than Jackson Smith and Jigba his former teammate who went

724
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: high to the Seahawks a couple of years ago and

725
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: just as coming off of his first Pro Bowl. There's

726
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 1: a bunch of teams in between let's say twenty and

727
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: twenty five in this draft, Judy, who all need a

728
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: receiver team like Houston and maybe could use a slot.

729
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: That was one of many potential landing spots for Abuca.

730
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 9: All right, how about the linebacker.

731
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: Carson Schwsinger, another one that he played with Emioladejo was

732
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 1: just on the show here, came on the Insiders recently

733
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: as well, a one time walk on. Finally, guys opportunity

734
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: just last year to start. But he could play all

735
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: three downs. He can run, he can cover. We talk

736
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: about those run spots in the draft. There's a bunch

737
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: of teams toward the end of Round one who all

738
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: need an off the ball linebacker. There's going to be

739
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: fans of g Hod Campbell. He's got versatility, could be

740
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: a pass rusher. But in terms of the true off

741
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: the ball guys, Sweessinger is going to be in that mix.

742
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 2: All right.

743
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 9: Offensive line, we know teams always need offensive linemen. We

744
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 9: always hear coaches and evaluators say there just are not

745
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 9: enough good offensive linemen. Who do you have as an

746
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 9: offensive lineman?

747
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: Well, there's definitely not enough centers, Judy. In this draft,

748
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 1: some teams are going to project Gray Zabel to that position.

749
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: He could end up playing there. But if you want

750
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,760
Speaker 1: the guys's actually snapped the ball before, how about Jared

751
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,319
Speaker 1: Wilson from Georgia, another one year starter. He had five

752
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: hundred and eleven pass blocks last season. Acory at PFF

753
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: allowed zero sacks. He's like a lot of Georgia's centers.

754
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: He's going to be quicker than he is strong. We'll

755
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: see how oh high exactly he could go. He's mostly

756
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: projected second third round here. But again, if you have

757
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: a need at center, and when somebody's played the position,

758
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: Jared Wilson's you got.

759
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: And finally, defensive line.

760
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 1: Ty Leek Williams is the name that's come up. He's

761
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty four pounds. He's a really good

762
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: run stuffer. His pre direct process got cut short because

763
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 1: he pulled a hamstring when he was running the forty

764
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: yard dash at his prodet You could say, what's the

765
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty four pound man doing running the

766
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: forty at all, well, they're going to take it easy

767
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 1: on him for these next few weeks, ire, but it

768
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 1: does not sound like it's anything that's going to impact

769
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 1: him as we get into training camp. He's a really

770
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 1: interesting prospect for multiple reasons, as he displayed earlier today

771
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,439
Speaker 1: on Good Morning Football.

772
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,919
Speaker 20: Kaus Havoc And I'm gonna show up every play, every game,

773
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 20: and you know you're going to have to account for

774
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 20: me at all times because that will you know, record offense,

775
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 20: you know if I'm not so really just being dominant

776
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 20: and you know, just showing up in the big games.

777
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 1: This is what I mean when I say that, what's

778
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: your favorite one oh them?

779
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 16: I mean that's that's the benefit of staying at one

780
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 16: school and putting it work the whole time.

781
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 21: That's don't want to open its basically, you know Texas, Oregon,

809
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,440

00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 19: and a lot of stuff is going on, shod you

817
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 19: self belief and so you don't believe in themselves. So

00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: Wisconsin for the NFL Draft beginning next week. Five years ago,

854
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: none of us were anywhere. We were all home as

855
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 1: the draft occurred. In the early stages of the COVID

856
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 1: nineteen pandemic. John Schneider, the GM of the Seahawks, as

857
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: Dog Charlie got caught the Zuomies here, Judy.

858
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 9: Listen, I actually enjoyed the COVID Draft for just this reason.

859
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 9: Like I liked all of these peaks behind the curtains

860
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 9: into people's homes. I liked to see players sitting in

861
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 9: their own living rooms with their families, like they were

862
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,879
Speaker 9: only allowed to have their families around them. I thought

863
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 9: that was like a really sort of sweet, stripped down draft,

864
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 9: and I like it. I like the glitz too, but

865
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 9: like this kind of stuff was really kind.

866
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 1: Of fun, and no one even remembers Charlie. The Seahawks

867
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,640

881
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 9: the draft when we're standing outside. But I'm hoping they
