1
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: This the one Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health.

2
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 2: It's the day you've been waiting for for over four months.

3
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:42,279
Speaker 1: Look at it.

4
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: Kansas City Union Station. The countdown is on and their

5
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: clock is wrong.

6
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: Well, I think this was taped earlier.

7
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: Let's go. We're ready. Uh what are we? Seven hours away?

8
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 3: Had a buddy call me today. He said, you know,

9
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 3: it's like Christmas Eve of the NFL season.

10
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: It is it?

11
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: Really is it?

12
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 2: This is the official mark of the new league year.

13
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 2: A lot of people, you know, technically it's the start

14
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 2: of free agency. That's when the new league year begins.

15
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: As far as having your books done and getting your

16
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: under the salary cap and all.

17
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: Of that, it's bookkeepings.

18
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: But this is this is about where the rosters begin a.

19
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: New This is the football end of it. This is fun.

20
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: A free agency is fun and.

21
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: A little bit of a peak into the future of

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: your team.

23
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 3: But here's the thing. You this is obviously very different

24
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 3: from free agency because you're definitely gonna get somebody, right,

25
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 3: I mean, you're you're gonna get somebody this draft and

26
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 3: you got six picks and it could turn into seven

27
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 3: or whatever, depending on how it moves up.

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 1: Last year.

29
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: Don't forget, folks. Last year nine trades were made in

30
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: the in the first round. Nine that is awesome.

31
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and.

32
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 3: Last year and the first one that happens. The mock

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 3: drafts all go out the window anyway.

34
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: Last year, most of those nine trades happen later in

35
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,919
Speaker 2: the round, after pick twenty, with the quarterbacks in play here,

36
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: I think the general consensus is more of the jockeying

37
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: for position will take place in the top half of

38
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: the round, although the last six or seven picks could

39
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 2: get very interesting depending on what's on the board when

40
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: we get down there later tonight. And no doubt the

41
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 2: Bills are part of that mix. And as Brandon being

42
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 2: told us last week or week and a half ago,

43
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: right around pick twenty is when they'll begin to have

44
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: an idea as to whether or not they're going to

45
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 2: have somebody there when they pick, whether they got to

46
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: get up because the number of first round grades are

47
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: dwindling fast, or if they have to get out of

48
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: that round completely and hope they can find a trade partner.

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: So that's the problem.

50
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 3: I think a lot of Bills fans have said it

51
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 3: over the conversations we've had Bills fans be perfectly happy

52
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 3: if they get an extra pick and move out and

53
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 3: go to like thirty four, thirty seven, forty, whatever.

54
00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: The pick might be.

55
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 3: If you track trade out of the first round, the

56
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 3: problem isn't the Bill's willingness to do it. It's somebody

57
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 3: else's willingness to go into the first round. Right If

58
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 3: there's nobody there that the Bills like at that pick,

59
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 3: what makes you think there's gonna be something there that

60
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: a ton of teams think is worth that pick.

61
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: Because of the widest variance of opinion that we have

62
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: seen in a long time.

63
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,399
Speaker 1: The deeper you get into the draft, the wider the variants.

64
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: Well, and not only that, I just think the class

65
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: as a whole, Steve NFL Networks ian Rapaport tweeted the following,

66
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: In the words of one GM, it's the most unpredictable

67
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: draft in forever, and it's because there are maybe the

68
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 2: fewest number of sure fire, elite, plan't miss guys than

69
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: we've seen in several years, and that leads to a

70
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: wider range of opinions. There's gonna be teams that are

71
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: absolutely in love with somebody that another team wouldn't take

72
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: until after pick fifty, right.

73
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 3: I was talking to guys up upstairs a little bit

74
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 3: and they said, yeah, the easiest thing is that you

75
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 3: get in the second half of they're outside the top

76
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 3: ten or in the bottom third of the first round,

77
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 3: and you'll have somebody picking a guy, And certainly in

78
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: the second round. It happens, you'll have somebody picking somebody

79
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: in the second round that you had on your free

80
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 3: agent list, like it was a rookie free a you're

81
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 3: gonna sign them.

82
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: I really don't get drafted.

83
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 3: That kind of stuff happens, and plus he goes, he goes,

84
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 3: we can't even you know, you'll have debates in your

85
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 3: own war room over what's the difference between a fifth

86
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 3: round pick and a seventh round pick? Or if you

87
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 3: go closer to the top of the draft, it becomes wow,

88
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 3: yeah you can't do.

89
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: But in the bottom of the it's like, what's the difference?

90
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 3: Right, So you start getting deeper into the draft, and

91
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 3: it's a roulette wheel. Bro a roulette wheel, it is,

92
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: and you have no choice but to put all your

93
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: chips on one number. So it's the way it works.

94
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 2: So as we get set for a round one tonight,

95
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: the latest goings on regarding the picks and who could

96
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 2: be going where. It still seems that all of the

97
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 2: Bryce Young talk is in fact gonna hold true tonight

98
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,119
Speaker 2: and he will be the first pick off the board

99
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: to Carolina. After that, it gets pretty interesting. There are

100
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: some people who maintain that the Texans are not in

101
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: love with the other quarterbacks in the class and may

102
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 2: pass at pick two. I think it's cuckoo for Cocoa

103
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: puff Steve. I mean, you need a quarterback you're drafting second,

104
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: Take the guy, like take your I mean you have

105
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 2: three that you know people wouldn't look at your cross

106
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: eyed if you took any one of those three, and

107
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 2: to take a defensive player, especially when you have the

108
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 2: twelfth pick in a class that's deep at edge rusher also, like.

109
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, you take the quarterback at two,

110
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: you ain't getting them at twelve.

111
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 2: You might not get any of them at twelve, right,

112
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: So to me, the quarterback, yes, ede rusher is a

113
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 2: premium position also, but you know how fast the quarterbacks go.

114
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 2: Their value gets inflated every year because people are so

115
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 2: desperate to land one. I think if you pass on

116
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 2: quarterback at two, you're not getting one of the next

117
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 2: two guys that you wanted at twelve. I just it's

118
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 2: flat out not happening. I'd be very surprised.

119
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: You got to look.

120
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: You just go down and you look at the order

121
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 3: that the drafts in Houston, Carolina, Houston, Indianapolis all need

122
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 3: a quarterback, and they're three of the first four picks.

123
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 3: Arizona is open for business to trade, so you could see,

124
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 3: even we've seen it, Indianapolis will flip flop with Arizona

125
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 3: or somebody, or to keep somebody from leap frogging them.

126
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 3: So to keep the Detroit Lions or the Raiders or

127
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: the falcon whoever you take your pick from leapfrogging them

128
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 3: back up into the first round, up in the top

129
00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: three to get the guy they want, particularly if Carolina

130
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 3: and Houston pick, or like if Anthony Richardson's on the board,

131
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 3: somebody may say Richardson's the guy. He's gonna be good.

132
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 3: You know, the Josh Allen syndrome. This guy is not

133
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: good and he had thirteen starts in college. There's a

134
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: ton of stuff they don't know about him, but man,

135
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 3: oh man, they know the guy is a is a

136
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 3: real athlete with a big arm and a great and

137
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 3: a great work ethic. They've already seen evidence that he's

138
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 3: gotten better and better and better and better, like they

139
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 3: could jot us right, So there's a guy that's gonna

140
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 3: get better.

141
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: Let's get him now.

142
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 2: Of course, the thirteen starts may concern some people because

143
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 2: you know who else had only thirteen starts in his

144
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: college career? Who? Mitchell Trubisky?

145
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: I get that.

146
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a roll of the die, It's no question

147
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 3: it is. But you got to know, you know, I mean,

148
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 3: you get your due diligence. They're all different. I've said

149
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 3: it before. They may play the same position, but all

150
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 3: four of these guys are five guys that we're talking about.

151
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: They're all different guys.

152
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 2: So the teams with the AMMO to be movers and

153
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 2: shakers tonight, Houston with this second and the twelfth pick,

154
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: Philadelphia at ten and thirty, Seattle at five and twenty.

155
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 2: And I want to say, there's one other team with

156
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: two picks in the round. Let me look at my

157
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: sheet here really quick so I can double check on that.

158
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 2: It's Philly, it's Seattle, it's Houston. Somebody else have two

159
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: picks in the round. Uh, maybe not maybe that's it.

160
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's it. Chargers were not there, you know,

161
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: that's it.

162
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: We're good. Those three teams have two picks. Those teams

163
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: could be movers and shakers just with the draft capital

164
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 2: they have at their disposal. The other thing to note,

165
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: ESPN's Diana Rossini with this, and it comes as no surprise,

166
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 2: she's reporting that I'm told the Arizona Cardinals are currently

167
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: mulling trade offers from multiple teams interested in moving to

168
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: number three. Overall, I think we all felt and I

169
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 2: wrote this on Buffalo bills dot com top five things

170
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 2: to watch for in the draft. Pick number three. Three

171
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: is really the first pivot point of the draft because

172
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 2: even if Houston takes a quarterback too, that could prompt

173
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: people to get up to three that need one because

174
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 2: they're like, oh boy, two are already off the board.

175
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 2: If I'm going to get one, I gotta get up

176
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 2: to three now yea or yeah. Or if Houston takes

177
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 2: a defensive player, now there's more quarterback talent to be had.

178
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 2: We didn't think that guy would be there. Let's go

179
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 2: get him now and trade up to three. So Arizona

180
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: is really in the catbird seat here and as we

181
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 2: talk to some of the people you know that know

182
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: the draft and roster building, They've all agreed with us.

183
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: One player at pick three is not going to change

184
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: the fortunes of the Arizona Cardinals. It would behoove them

185
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: to trade out, get as many picks as possible and

186
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 2: hope that six players that they draft can make a

187
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: difference for their team this coming year.

188
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 3: Right, you could get conceivably three to four picks for

189
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 3: that number three pick from the right team.

190
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: Know where they're gonna be.

191
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: They well, if somebody's coming from way down the board. Yeah, Like,

192
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 2: if you've got a ball, you got a Baltimore team

193
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 2: that wants to come up from twenty two and take

194
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: Anthony richards Anthony Richardson and say, well, this is Lamar's

195
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 2: last year and in Raven's uniform, he's gone after this year,

196
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 2: and then we'll roll with him. You know. Then yeah,

197
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 2: you could you could have a king's ransom for that.

198
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, I really think Baltimore and Minnesota are kind

199
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: of lying in the weeds here as quarterback teams. They

200
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: don't need a quarterback this year, per se, But in

201
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, I would say the Vikings almost definitely Doe.

202
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: They're done with cousins. Come on, the guy's been productive,

203
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 2: but he hasn't won a darn thing in his entire career.

204
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: Yeah he's not.

205
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he didn't even win the Minneapolis Miracle game.

206
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 3: That was case case Keenum did that one. Yeah, I

207
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 3: get it. I don't think the Raiders are satisfied. Are

208
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 3: gonna be satisfied.

209
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 2: I mean, they got Garoppolo, but he's essentially on a

210
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 2: one year deal. I mean it was a three year contract.

211
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 3: But they're sitting in seven. So the Raiders, so what

212
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 3: are they hoping somebody drops?

213
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 4: Like?

214
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 3: I mean, Hendon Hooker will be there at seven. He's

215
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 3: a twenty five year old guy. It's going to be

216
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 3: a rookie. But he had an ACL tear. But he

217
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 3: showed some real to me, showed some real promise before

218
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 3: he got injured. There are some people who questioned the

219
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 3: offense that they were running at Tennessee that Hendon Hooker

220
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 3: was a part of, but he was very productive in it.

221
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 1: And I know this.

222
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 3: The head coach of the Raiders thinks he can make

223
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 3: just about anybody a really good quarterback, even though he's

224
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 3: been proving wrong time and time again. So he's got

225
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 3: a lot of confidence in his coaching ability. So he

226
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 3: could know having Garoppolo there for a year with Hendon

227
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: Hooker on ice for that first year sets him up

228
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 3: for the future and really gives him some job security

229
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 3: that he may not deserve after what happened last year.

230
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 1: M you know, they get it.

231
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 3: They'll give him another year because oh he's got this guy,

232
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 3: the plans coming together. It's what he we thought it was.

233
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 3: We knew we got Garoppolo is just gonna be an

234
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 3: okay guy, and that's what he was. So here we

235
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 3: go that you know what I mean that that kind

236
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 3: of long term thinking could get Josh McDaniels to his

237
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 3: third year.

238
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 2: Well, also, let's not forget that the Raiders are not

239
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 2: exactly flush with liquidity. They're still paying John Gruden ten

240
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 2: million a year to not coach for them. It was

241
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: a ten year, one hundred million dollar contract. There's about

242
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 2: four or five years left on that thing.

243
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: I remember, So well, yeah, they yeah.

244
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 2: They fired him. He didn't resign. He's no dummy. He's

245
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 2: not going to resign in four to fifth sixty million dollars.

246
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 2: So they're paying that guy ten million year do you

247
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 2: think they want to fire Josh McDaniels pay another coach

248
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 2: to not coach for them. I can't see it. I

249
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 2: think he's going to get all the rope that he wants.

250
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: We have to look at some other things regarding the

251
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 2: draft and what could impact some team's choices. Jaguars starting

252
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 2: left tackle Cam Robinson is going to be suspended for

253
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: violations of the league's substance abuse policy. The number of

254
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: games that he will miss was not disclosed. The Jags

255
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 2: already lost starting right tackle Juwan Taylor in free agency

256
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 2: this spring. Now they do have twenty twenty one second

257
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 2: round pick Walker Little, who was penciled in to be

258
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 2: the starting right tackle for this upcoming season, but now

259
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 2: he'll presumably have to start on the right side in

260
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: the absence of Robinson, at least to start the year.

261
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: Do you think this prompts the Jags to lean a

262
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: little bit more toward offensive tackle if the value is

263
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 2: right at pick twenty four, Oh yeah, right.

264
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: They gotta do something. The draft makes a lot of sense.

265
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: I mean, they can still go out on the free

266
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,839
Speaker 3: agent market, but if there was a really good free

267
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 3: agent left tackle out there, he's he wouldn't be there. Yeah,

268
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 3: if he was that good, Yeah, they've got to I

269
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 3: mean that. So if you're the Bills sitting there, that's

270
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 3: another to me, that's another uncertainty that's made more certain

271
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: by the team's just ahead of you.

272
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 2: And I don't I don't pretend to know how many

273
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 2: game Sames Cam Robinson is gonna miss. But let's not

274
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: forget last year at this time, DeAndre Hopkins was suspended

275
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: for six Saints the first six games of the season.

276
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: So it's a chunk.

277
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a thirty year season. I mean that's a

278
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 2: big chunk.

279
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a big chunk.

280
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 2: So especially for a Jacksonville team that's trying to take

281
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: the next step after making the playoffs last year, the

282
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 2: winning a playoff game.

283
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 3: They won a playoff game last year, so they're they're

284
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 3: feeling pretty good.

285
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 2: And that's an important position.

286
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's it's a crusher for them to get

287
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 3: hit like that. But like I said, for the rest

288
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: of the league and how it affects them, despite what

289
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 3: happens on the field with who is who is or

290
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: who is not playing left tackle for him, it's a

291
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 3: certainty that they've got to fix it. Before the season starts.

292
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 3: And here we are at the draft. So you know

293
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 3: this pick now is a twenty four to twenty third

294
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 3: twenty fourth, three spots ahead of the Bills. There is

295
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 3: a certainty that one of those offensive tackles is going

296
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 3: to be gone. So if the Bills are down there

297
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 3: to where they've got like two tackles left, are they

298
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 3: gonna let the Jaguars pick one and then hope that

299
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 3: the Giants and the Cowboys don't.

300
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe if.

301
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: They they'll sit there. If they have five prospects that

302
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 2: they like, right, and if they happen to get a tackle, well, great,

303
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 2: If there's.

304
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: Five, that's great. If there's two, it's not.

305
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 2: Even five tackles. I'm just saying five prospects that they like,

306
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 2: tackle defense, whatever. If they have five guys they like

307
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 2: with grades in that neighborhood, and you know the Jags

308
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: are doing whatever they're doing at twenty four and you're

309
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: only three picks away, you're just gonna stay where you

310
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 2: are because you know you're gonna get at least one

311
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: guy that fits your value, no matter what position.

312
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 3: I think I think more likely though, they're gonna they're

313
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: gonna look at that and they say, okay, noose, those

314
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: guys are gonna take an offensive lineman. We've got three

315
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 3: prospects left. One of them is an offensive lineman, one

316
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 3: of them is what a line wide receiver, and the

317
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 3: other one is whatever. So that's where they and then

318
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 3: they got to look at the Giants and the Cowboys.

319
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 3: Is what those guys are gonna take. So if they

320
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 3: got three picks left, and there's three picks ahead of them,

321
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 3: and you know one of them is gonna be that

322
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 3: offensive lineman, or maybe he's not. Because if the you know,

323
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 3: that's that's where you gotta go. You gotta take a

324
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 3: deep breath and say, just gotta wait.

325
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 2: You can't know what you don't know. You can surmise

326
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: what you think, you know.

327
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 3: You can make some You've got to think right now

328
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 3: as we're talking, because this is why this conversation is

329
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: going on. Jacksonville is picking an offensive lineman that's a

330
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 3: tackle specific right. That is where we're at right now.

331
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: So that is a little less uncertainty. I think, Okay,

332
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: the problem is you don't know if they're liking and

333
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 3: I'll say it again, you don't know if there guy's

334
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 3: gonna be cold, strange or Jackie Slater. Right, you don't

335
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 3: know if he's gonna be a guy that you really love,

336
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 3: a guy who's a Hall of Fame kind of guy,

337
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 3: or a guy that everybody's like laughing at you.

338
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 2: Range has been our veritable whipping boy for the better

339
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 2: part of the last three months. He's the poster child

340
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 2: for it's been criticizing the Patriots. Bryce Young Steve has

341
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 2: signed with the Jordan Brand ahead of the NFL Draft,

342
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 2: so he's not even the first pick yet, and Young

343
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 2: has signed with them. According to reports, he has a

344
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 2: shot to become the face of the Jordan Brand's football

345
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 2: division moving forward, provided he lives up to the hype.

346
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 2: I wonder what the outs in that contract are for

347
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: the Jordan Brand, Like, yeah, we'll still send your shirts

348
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 2: and shoes, but you won't be doing any commercials if

349
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 2: you flop, you know what I mean? How does that

350
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: language read in the contract? They'd be very curious to

351
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 2: see that. Hey, if you're great, we're with.

00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 2: So read an interesting note on Yahoo Sports this morning,

369
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 2: and it's about the number two overall pick since nineteen

370
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 2: ninety seven, not counting last year's draft, so that's about

371
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 2: twenty five years, fifty six percent of the number two

372
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 2: overall picks have been busts. If you're their criteria was,

373
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: if you're the number two overall pick, you've got to

374
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 2: have put up at least one all pro season or

375
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: win two Super Bowls, one or the other. That's the

376
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 2: criteria that they went with. Fifty six percent bust rate.

377
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 2: Are you ready, Steve to run down memory? Lane of

378
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 2: the number two picks in the last ten years.

379
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 3: That's that's a pretty high bar. You got to be

380
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 3: an All Pro or win two Super Bowl.

381
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 2: One All Pro naming. You're the second pick in the.

382
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 3: Draft, guy, Yeah, but you're playing for the Cleveland Browns.

383
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 3: All right, Well you're playing you're playing for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well,

384
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 3: you're playing for the Arizona Cardinals. All of these teams

385
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: that suck. You got to be an All Pro for

386
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: those guys.

387
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: Thanks a lot.

388
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's go down memory lane here of the

389
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: number two overall picks for the last ten years or so.

390
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 2: Are you ready?

391
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: Go ahead?

392
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 2: So last year was Aiden Hutchinson. He's not part of

393
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 2: this pool, but looks like he's gonna be a pretty

394
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 2: good player.

395
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,480
Speaker 3: Yeah good, it's not good enough, bro, he's a bust,

396
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 3: but right now he's a bust.

397
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: Well, okay, you by the standard.

398
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty one, right, number two overall pick, Zach Wilson.

399
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: All right, that's a bit alright, I'll give you.

400
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 2: That's twenty twenty number two overall pick. Chase Young missed

401
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: all of last year.

402
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 3: He had an injury, so you kind of get a

403
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 3: pass and they did not pack, they did not pick

404
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 3: up his and now he's supposed to win two super

405
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 3: Bowls with that franchise or go.

406
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: To the once. Think about that.

407
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 2: He should be able to be an All pro once.

408
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 2: I would think, provided he gets through a season healthy.

409
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen, Nick Bosa to San Francisco?

410
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: Is he now? Is he a bust? Nobody's thinking he's

411
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: a bust.

412
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 2: Number two pick? In twenty eighteen Saquon Barkley, Okay.

413
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: Injured, but yes, he's a He's a dynamite player.

414
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: Number two pick?

415
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: Was he a bust?

416
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 2: Twenty seventeen? I think he was an All Pro that

417
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 2: one year he had that he was healthy. Number two

418
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 2: overall pick twenty seventeen Mitchell Trubisky, all right. Twenty sixteen

419
00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,160
Speaker 2: draft number two overall pick Carson Wentz twenty.

420
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: That number two over won one Super Bowl?

421
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 2: Well did he really win?

422
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: He was a hot MVP level through eleven games of

423
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 1: that season before he got hurt.

424
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: Twenty fifteen draft number two overall pick Marcus Mariota.

425
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,320

455
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,040

468
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 2: him when he jumps up in the air.

469
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,919
Speaker 1: Think about oh yeah, yeah, yeah, not right, that's like that.

470
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 3: Never never mind the fact that he could, you know,

471
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 3: when he jumps, he could bring his legs up, he

472
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 3: could jump two legged up on he could jump over

473
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 3: an automobile and never touch it.

474
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 2: That's not right. Sorry, that's just that is not right.

475
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 3: It's it's the the athleticism is unbelieving. He could outrun

476
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 3: anybody on the field. Just yeah, unbelievable.

477
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: So that yeah, that's so we are here him. Yeah,

478
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: we are two Hall of famers in there, Vaughan and

479
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: and Calvin Johnson.

480
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 2: And there's other guys with some potential to maybe but yeah,

481
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 2: but more often than not, when these teams miss at

482
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 2: pick two, it's a quarterback.

483
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: And I'll say this too, pick two is not pick one. Yeah.

484
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 2: And it was interesting because the premise of the write

485
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 2: up said, when you're not picking first and you don't

486
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 2: have the pick of the litter, yeah, but you pick second.

487
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 2: The human, the natural human reaction is you're gonna press.

488
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 2: You can press a little bit. Well, we didn't get

489
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: that guy, but we gotta get the next guy. And

490
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 2: then and then you press and maybe you force the issue.

491
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 2: That's some of the theory involved there. I don't know

492
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 2: how legitimate that is, but for somebody or like or like,

493
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 2: you just automatically press because you know you're not getting

494
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 2: the top guy, but we gotta get the next best guy.

495
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 2: It's this guy.

496
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 1: Let's I'll say this too.

497
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 3: There's some and I think most people can relate to

498
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 3: this a little bit anyway, where when you come out

499
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 3: as you can picture yourself being pictured as this marquee

500
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 3: name without ever earning it. You just you show up right,

501
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 3: You're the number one pick. It's like Aaron Rodgers going.

502
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: To the Jets. The pressure is like ratcheted up.

503
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you can imagine the effect it has on

504
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 3: a twenty one to twenty two year old kid of

505
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 3: coming into a city and all of a sudden being

506
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 3: bigger than the mayor. You know, I mean this guy is,

507
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, you are everybody's favorite person in

508
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 3: the entire city. It's it affects you mentally, and I

509
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 3: think the pressure on it, plus how the team handles it,

510
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: the leadership inside the building, your teammates, being the first

511
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 3: pick of the draft, You're coming to a team that stinks.

512
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 3: There's a lot in that that affects you, and it

513
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 3: can affect you in a positive way where you come

514
00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 3: in and say, I'm gonna earn, I'm gonna make these

515
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 3: people so glad I'm that guy, or you're gonna be

516
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 3: like they better jump because I'm you know, it's them

517
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 3: not me. Now I'm here it's a mindset. It's a

518
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 3: mindset and that's why, and it affects them and that's.

519
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: Why these teams dig into that stuff so much, the

520
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 2: character background, the upbringing. How were you molded and shaped

521
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 2: as a human being not a player? What are your

522
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 2: parents like, what's your family situation do you have? You

523
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 2: have older brothers and sisters? How did they treat like.

524
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: Hey, you played with him? What's he like?

525
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah?

526
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: You know, that's all of that goes on, And it

527
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 1: didn't that.

528
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 2: Started that mindset though, Yeah, talking about it started.

529
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 3: Happening back in the late eighties, early nineties, pollyon you

530
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,880
Speaker 3: you know, back then, and everybody kind of starts getting

531
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 3: the best practices together at kind of at the same time.

532
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 3: Somebody comes up with an idea, we should do this,

533
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 3: and somebody goes, hey, man, that's a good idea. So

534
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 3: back in the day, you can remember, they were paying

535
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: guys lots of money as a first round pick, whether

536
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 3: they deserved it or not, you know what I mean.

537
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: It was just it was part of the deal that

538
00:26:58,359 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: was so out of whacked.

539
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 3: They finally fixed it, right, It was just crazy, right,

540
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 3: So they're right, So the team started thinking listen, We're

541
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 3: spending multimillion dollars and we don't know these kids. How

542
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 3: about we spend a little money, hire some experts to

543
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 3: come in and get a personality interview, start finding out

544
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: who and what these guys are. It started way back then,

545
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 3: and now obviously it's commonplace everybody interviews these guys and

546
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 3: get an intelligence tests.

547
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: They got a new and improved S two test that

548
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,159
Speaker 1: they like even better than the wonder lick. They got.

549
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 3: All this stuff is they spend money on it so

550
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 3: they don't waste bigger money or that they have a

551
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 3: chance to make bigger money by having a star on

552
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 3: their team that gives them, you know, home run ticket sales.

553
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

554
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 3: So that this is all hugely important because of just

555
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 3: what we were talking about. When they get picked high

556
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 3: in the draft, you cannot be unaffected by it.

557
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 1: But is it a positive or a negative? And you

558
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: got to find that out.

559
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,959

Speaker 3: We had a little remembrance today the guys in the

577
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 3: control room. I reminded them and they said they remembered

578
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 3: that last year when with the Bills were on the clock,

579
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,640

Speaker 3: Remember when they were on the clock. When they were

581
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 3: on the clock, I said, that's the guy they're gonna pick.

582
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 2: And we were right. I don't think it was too hard.

583
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 2: He was like the last good corner on that.

584
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, And then they had and then we got to

585
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 3: round two and both of us picked James Cook.

586
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: We hit on James Cook. So we had that going.

587
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,600

588
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:20,760

589
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:25,080

590
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,040

00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 2: to whoever the first round draft choice is tonight. How

625
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 2: about that?

626
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 3: It's like every year and because mafia, the Bills Mafia,

627
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 3: they considered it family. And I've said it a bunch

628
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: on this show. One of the things about that is

629
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 3: that there's a level of affection that fans not only

630
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 3: have for their team, like every fan base, but there's

631
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 3: a level of affection for each other. As you go

632
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 3: around the country, as it go builds it, you know,

633
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 3: they kind of embrace each other and there's a friendship,

634
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: the kinship there that is deeper and more pride soaked

635
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 3: than a lot of other fan bases. They like each other. Certainly,

636
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 3: there's you know, obvious knucklehead exceptions, but that's kind of

637
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 3: the atmosphere in which you come to. And so I

638
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 3: say it every year at this time, the Mafia is

639
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 3: getting another family member today. And I said it to

640
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 3: a guy when the Bills were playing a Monday night game,

641
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 3: I think it was against the Packers this year. It

642
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: was an ESPN game or whatever, and I was talking

643
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 3: to a guy I know, Mike Golick, who was from

644
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 3: Mike and Mike. He and I were drafted together by

645
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 3: the Houston Oilers. We're reminiscing and I was asking about

646
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 3: his family. He was catching up with mine and I

647
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 3: and I, you know, I told him my wife and

648
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 3: I we've been here ever since I left you and

649
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 3: the Oilers in eighties. And he said, you know, so

650
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 3: you're kind of he was talking about me and Jim

651
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 3: Kelly and Thurman and you know how we live here.

652
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 3: He says, you're kind of Buffalo royalty, aren't you football worldy?

653
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 3: And I was like, no, no, it's better than that.

654
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 3: I'm family not royalty. We're family and so that that's

655
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 3: kind of put it in perspective for me. And that's

656
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 3: what we're getting tonight with these kids. Some guy is

657
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 3: gonna get you know, like you're going to the pound

658
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 3: and you're gonna get a new dog, right, I mean,

659
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 3: this is it.

660
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: Let's go, let's go choose him.

661
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: Which one? I hope he's a dog? Whoever write it?

662
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 3: Which one is it gonna be? And so is it

663
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 3: gonna be one of the big guys or is it

664
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 3: gonna be one of the athletes? So what are we

665
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 3: gonna get? And so that's the fun part about this.

666
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 3: That's why it's like it's like Christmas Eve today around here, right.

667
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 2: And we're asking you what Christmas gift you want under

668
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 2: the tree for the Bills at pick twenty seven. Who

669
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: is your player of preference for the Bills tonight in

670
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 2: Round one? Leading us off today, Tim in north Tonawanda,

671
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 2: what do you got for a s? Tim?

672
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 8: Oh?

673
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 9: I want Darnel Washington all the way.

674
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 10: But I think they're gonna go after Brian Breese.

675
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 2: I've been Washington draft since you had hair and Steve

676
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 2: was a rookie. Yeah, and it's been a long time

677
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 2: since I've had hair, Tim, so well, let's.

678
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 11: Tells you how old I am too.

679
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,760
Speaker 4: It wasn't even on TV when I started.

680
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, all right, Darnell Washington, you know it's ah.

681
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,759
Speaker 2: I will say this, Tim. We know that Brandon Bean

682
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 2: loves elite physical traits and he certainly checks the boxes

683
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 2: for that, So I don't think that's an outlandish wish

684
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 2: to want.

685
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 3: Darnell Washington's also a big physical presence in the run

686
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,760
Speaker 3: game as well. Yeah, you know, and you think about

687
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 3: a tight end and you want him to do some stuff,

688
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: and certainly this guy, Michael Mayer is a guy that

689
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 3: they say is the best tight end. But you talk

690
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 3: about the upside, Darnell Washington is upside. He's all upside.

691
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy's high, high ceiling.

692
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: He's got a huge ceiling.

693
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 3: And right away, I mean, you don't need him to

694
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 3: come in and take Dawson Knox's place, but if you come,

695
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 3: if you bring him in the in the game, all

696
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 3: of a sudden, you may be running the football right

697
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,359
Speaker 3: behind him because the guy is big.

698
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 2: Or if you're or if you're good at it, or

699
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 2: if you're in the red zone, you got two sequoias

700
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 2: to throw too right. I mean him and I mean

701
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 2: Dawson's no shrimp. He's six ' five and this kid's

702
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: six ' six. I mean, just throw it up to

703
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 2: one of those guys. Let's go back to the phones here,

704
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 2: Let's go to we got a lot of people to

705
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,399
Speaker 2: get to. Let's go to Rick in South Buffalo next.

706
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: What you got for his Rick?

707
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 7: I have Jordan Addison usc Okay, love the kid. I

708
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 7: love his rout running ability, the fact that he was

709
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 7: productive with Kenny Pickett at Pittsburgh then moved to another system.

710
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 7: Learn the book. It just says that he has the

711
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,800
Speaker 7: ability to be prepared right away to play in the NFL.

712
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: Yeah.

713
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 2: What I like about him most is he seems to

714
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 2: have that like dog mentality, like he he wants to

715
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 2: like go get it every single time. He's ready to

716
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 2: get in the face of the dB. How concerned are you, though, Rick,

717
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 2: that he's still gonna be there at twenty seven.

718
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 7: I think the way how the boards seems like it's

719
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 7: falling in most mock drafts, there is a good chance

720
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 7: he will be there. It seems like his forty time

721
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 7: wasn't as great as they wanted it. To be right,

722
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 7: So I think that might help out along in the

723
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 7: draft process for him to follow to Buffalo. I think

724
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 7: that he's more quick than he is fast, and that

725
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 7: often gets overlooked in.

726
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 9: The lot front offices.

727
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good call, and you're right.

728
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 3: Actually, the last mock draft that Bucky Brooks did, which

729
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 3: I saw today, he had the Bills taking Jordan Addison.

730
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 3: He was very, very productive at Pitt and given the

731
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 3: atmosphere in college football, you know this these days. He

732
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 3: went from Pitt for where he's a three year guy

733
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 3: and was a Blittanikoff Award winner, went to USC and

734
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 3: can I just say he probably did it because he

735
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 3: got a.

736
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 2: Pay raise, a right nil money, right, Yeah, And so.

737
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 3: He decided to go run, you know, go to USC,

738
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 3: play in the Pac twelve, play with a in a

739
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 3: different offense, with a different quarterback, and do what he

740
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,240
Speaker 3: can do. And certainly it didn't cost him much because

741
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,560
Speaker 3: he's still on the on the radar. But yeah, he's

742
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 3: he's been mocked to the Bills multiple times, and really

743
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,360
Speaker 3: multiple times in the last week and a half or

744
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 3: two weeks. Early on, nobody thought he would be there.

745
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 3: But now because of the way the rest of the

746
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 3: positions are falling. He has been mocked to the bills

747
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 3: more than on more than one occasion.

748
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, my concern is the LA Chargers at twenty one.

749
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 2: And one of the main reasons why is they have

750
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 2: two twenty million dollar receivers in Mike Williams and the

751
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 2: slot guy k thank you, thank you, Keenan Allen and

752
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 2: Keenan Allen's getting a little long in the tooth. And

753
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 2: add in the fact that there's a connection there from

754
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 2: his college days. So he was recruited heavily to pit

755
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 2: by their wide receivers coach, Chris Baide, and he is

756
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 2: now the wide receivers coach for the LA Chargers. So

757
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 2: if there's going to be anybody banging a table on

758
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,959
Speaker 2: Draft night, it's going to be the wide receivers coach

759
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 2: for the Chargers who recruited him at pitt with pick

760
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,919
Speaker 2: twenty one. So hopefully he's still there for your sake.

761
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: But I don't know if he's going to make it

762
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:21,959
Speaker 2: down to twenty seven.

763
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: I hope he does.

764
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,800
Speaker 2: I'd be happy with him. Back to the phones and

765
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 2: to finger in California. What do you got for us?

766
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 6: Hey?

767
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,360
Speaker 4: There, Chris, Steve lovely to talk to you guys, and

768
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 4: now you guys doing good and great, good good way.

769
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,720
Speaker 4: By the I honestly really want to see no picks

770
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 4: for Buffalo tonight. I'm really hoping to be unless they

771
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 4: have a first round a first round great on either

772
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 4: an offensive line guy or a tight end. I want

773
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 4: to trade back and get as many picks as I

774
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 4: can because we could definitely find the talent in the

775
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 4: later rounds for sure.

776
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 2: Right.

777
00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 11: I liked that on that end of it.

778
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 4: I just want to just say, really quick, on my

779
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 4: end of it, for the Aaron Rodgers trade to the

780
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 4: New Jersey Jets, if you will, I just laugh at it,

781
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,840
Speaker 4: and I'll tell you why. You can always put maple

782
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 4: syrup and powdered sugar on a dog turd, but it's

783
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 4: still gonna taste like a dog turd, you know what

784
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 4: I mean. And not only that, the maple syrup and

785
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 4: the powdered sugar, they're expired, you know, So they can

786
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 4: make all this They could just make all this claim

787
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 4: that they're gonna be better and all, but with all

788
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 4: the things that we saw with Denver last year and

789
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,800
Speaker 4: the way they're setting up to make the packers be

790
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 4: the Jets of the East. You know, I just have

791
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 4: no worries at all about Aaron Rodgers. I do worry

792
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 4: about the Dolphins though. They guys. I think they're gonna

793
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 4: do a heck of a lot better and they're gonna

794
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 4: be the number two in the division, you know, under us.

795
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 4: As far as the draft is concerned, I really hope

796
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 4: unless we have a first round grade on an offensive tackle,

797
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 4: guard or a tight end, please just trade back and

798
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 4: get more picks.

799
00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 2: All right, sounds good, Thanks for the call.

800
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 1: I like to thought, and it's a real thing.

801
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 2: I think it's a possibility.

802
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 1: I think it is a possibility, and I would have

803
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: a problem with it. Either.

804
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 3: The more the wider net you can cast, the more

805
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 3: picks you can get, the better chance you have of

806
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 3: hitting on guys like Tarren Johnson, Gabe Davis and Matt

807
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 3: Mulano and guys like that.

808
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 2: So, and we know how tight this team is against

809
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 2: the cap. They need chick labor as much of it

810
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 2: as they can find, especially if it's of a high quality.

811
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 2: So if you get an extra two, I mean, people

812
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 2: have said all along, even though there's a wide variance

813
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 2: of opinion, maybe the widest we've seen in many years

814
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 2: on the prospects in this draft. The general consensus is

815
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: the meat and potatoes of this draft in terms of

816
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,479
Speaker 2: best value, is going to be on Day two, rounds

817
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 2: two and three. So if you get an extra pick

818
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,879
Speaker 2: in that range, you're probably doing yourself a favor. Let's

819
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 2: go back to the phones and to Joe in Rochester.

820
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 2: What do you got for us?

821
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,800
Speaker 11: Joe, Hi, Christ and Steve. Great job, Thank you for

822
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 11: taking my call. Steve, you should be a Hall of Famer.

823
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 11: Deb's a nope, everyone knows it. My thing is, I

824
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 11: don't care who they picked tonight. I want d Hop

825
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 11: in a Buffalo Bill's uniform, and I want to take

826
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,239
Speaker 11: a look at what they're gonna do on defense. When

827
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 11: you spread out Diggs, d Hop, Dawson, Knox, you have

828
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 11: James Cook, Naheim, Hines, and Harris in the backfield, Josh

829
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 11: being Josh.

830
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 4: Not to mention Jave Davis.

831
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 11: There's no one who could match up against us. So

832
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 11: have fun on Draft night, but make something happen for

833
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 11: de Hop.

834
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 9: And I think this is just like the.

835
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 11: Cornelius Benet trade. You bring him in we go to

836
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 11: the super Bowl. Steve, you even said when Cornelia's Benan

837
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 11: walked in the locker room. You guys were like, holy smokes,

838
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 11: we're going to Super Bowl. I feel the same way

839
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 11: about de Hop.

840
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 2: That's how I feel, all right, Thanks, Joe, appreciate the call.

841
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you this and you're gonna have to

842
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 2: wait with your answer until we come back because we

843
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 2: are up against the break here. Do you think a

844
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 2: d Hop trade is an if then scenario? What I

845
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 2: mean by that is, if the Bills get a receiver

846
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 2: in round one tonight or round two tomorrow, do you

847
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 2: think a d Hop trade is off the table? Or

848
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,719
Speaker 2: if they don't get a receiver in either of those

849
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 2: two rounds, would that prompt a d Hop trade. We

850
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 2: will have Steve Tasker's answer to that question when we

851
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,399
Speaker 2: return here. On One Bill's Live presented by Klida Health,

882
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:58,400

883
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,799
Speaker 1: I do get him patient. Let's just show me the before.

884

Speaker 2: Oh my god, you should watch it with my wife

885
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 2: because she says the same thing. Oh my gosh.

886
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,400
Speaker 1: So you get to the end, yeah, of course.

887
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 2: And then the worst part is that gives that gives

888
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 2: every woman out there the belief that any any husband

889
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 2: can do a complete room and remodel this in a

890
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:20,680
Speaker 2: half an hour. You know what.

891
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 3: I do notice about that though, because they with Chip

892
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 3: and Joanna Gaines with their fixer upper. Yeah yeah, and

893
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 3: then same thing with the Property Brothers, and for sure

894
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 3: with Love.

895
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 1: It or Listen, I know all these shows. I can't

896
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: believe it anyway. So they get this house playing.

897
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: They got in here.

898
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 1: This is our budget.

899
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 3: So they spend whatever they spend fifty grand renovating it. Okay,

900
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 3: I'm not kidding you. They spend seventy five grand staging

901
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 3: the thing. They bring in two hundred thousand dollars worth

902
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 3: a brand new furniture and put it up there.

903
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 1: They got a van, which you can do with just

904
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: fifty k. They got a van go above the fireplace.

905
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,439
Speaker 3: The fireplace costs two grand, the van go it costs

906
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 3: five million, but it makes house, you know what I mean,

907
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 3: that's what they're doing.

908
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: The furniture costs more than the renovation does. When they stay.

909
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable.

910
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 3: They got like a ten thousand dollars dining room table

911
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 3: and they're sweating over five hundred dollars difference on the

912
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 3: countertop prices.

913
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you talking about? So there's a

914
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 1: little bit of that going on.

915
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 2: Steve has giving this a lot of thought. I'd like

916
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 2: to give him more thought to, though, I like him

917
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 2: to give more thought to is the question we asked

918
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 2: before the break, which was do you believe a DeAndre

919
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 2: Hopkins trade is an if then situation? The situation I

920
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 2: posed to Steve was if the Bills do not come

921
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 2: out of round one or two with a wide receiver,

922
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 2: is the trade then on? And if they do get

923
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 2: a receiver in round one or two, is the trade off?

924
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 2: You think it's a Do you think a trade is

925
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 2: predicated on what whether or not the Bills can get

926
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 2: a receiver in one of the first two rounds?

927
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it might. I think a little bit.

928
00:45:58,080 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 2: Yeah.

929
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna be like a flipping of

930
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 3: the ones and the two, like if the Bills give

931
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 3: Arizona the twenty seven pick and Arizona will give them

932
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 3: the thirty four pick or whatever it is.

933
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,360
Speaker 1: I don't think it's quite that high.

934
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 3: Because they've got the Arizona's got thirty four and the

935
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:18,320
Speaker 3: Bills have twenty seven.

936
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: It would take about a third round.

937
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 3: I think it would probably be if the Bills don't

938
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 3: get one at twenty seven, and if they don't get

939
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,200
Speaker 3: one at fifty nine, then maybe yeah, the next pick,

940
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 3: the ninety one.

941
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 1: Pick, maybe that does go to Arizona for d Hop.

942
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 3: Okay, but by that time, yeah, I think I think

943
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,799
Speaker 3: it's gonna happen this weekend, if the trade's gonna happen

944
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 3: this draft, if it's gonna happen, and I do believe

945
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 3: there is an if then kind of scenario going on.

946
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 3: I think the Bills surely, sure they'd love to have

947
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 3: d Hop on the team. And I think d Hop's

948
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 3: better than anybody in this draft. Right, He'll help them

949
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 3: faster than any drafted player, even if he doesn't play,

950
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 3: as long as that a drafted break could, right, So.

951
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: I think though the money's an issue, and fixing that

952
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 1: would be not insurmountable, but I think it does predict.

953
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 1: I think it is.

954
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 3: And if then, if the Bills don't get one of

955
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:17,879
Speaker 3: their guys at twenty seven or one of their guys

956
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 3: at fifty four, fifty nine to nine then Yeah, I

957
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,479
Speaker 3: think the de hop thing might happen.

958
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm inclined to think that as well, but we'll

959
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:26,879
Speaker 2: just have to wait and see.

960
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: But I think you're right. The cheap labor thing's big. Yeah.

961
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 2: Moving back.

962
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

963
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 2: In the meantime, we go back to the phones to

964
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 2: get your answer as to who your pick for the

965
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,400
Speaker 2: Bills is at twenty seven tonight, who's your favorite? To

966
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 2: John and Buffalo, we go, who do you got?

967
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: John?

968
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hi, guys, I'm gonna give you a mini quiz

969
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 2: real quick.

970
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 9: Okay, he was picked a Spiders football player in college,

971
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,839
Speaker 9: and he was a Buckers Award and he's a defensive player.

972
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 4: Who you got?

973
00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:56,320
Speaker 2: That's I believe that's Jack Campbell.

974
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 4: You got it?

975
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 1: You got it?

976
00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 9: Brother?

977
00:47:58,320 --> 00:47:59,719
Speaker 8: Wait a right on, that's my guy.

978
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:04,759
Speaker 4: He's a Matt Milano slash Edmunds clothe. Even Jay s

979
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 4: Kirsky said.

980
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,720
Speaker 1: That he's about as close to Edmunds as we're.

981
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 9: Going to get in this draft.

982
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:09,600
Speaker 8: He's my pick.

983
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: I know you guys love offense, but I'll go with

984
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:12,359
Speaker 1: that kid.

985
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 7: If he's available, I say, we grab him.

986
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:15,800
Speaker 1: What do you think I got? I like him. I

987
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 1: wouldn't have a problem with it.

988
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 3: But I'll say this, him being the closest thing to

989
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 3: Tremaine Edmunds in this draft doesn't say much because everybody

990
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,280
Speaker 3: else in this draft's a smurf at linebacker, right except

991
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 3: Drew Sanders.

992
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,800
Speaker 2: I would say that Campbell is not quite the athlete

993
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,319
Speaker 2: that Tremaine Edmonds is, but I think he's gotten beat

994
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:35,520
Speaker 2: on natural instincts in spades. The biggest selling point for

995
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,399
Speaker 2: Jack Campbell are his football instincts and his football IQ.

996
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 1: Like he said, he's a smart guy.

997
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 2: He worked for a week with Luke Keigley, the former

998
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,839
Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers linebacker. He worked with him for a week

999
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 2: out at his training facility, tried to soak up as

1000
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 2: much as he could. I like Drew Sanders a little

1001
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 2: bit better than Campbell. I think he's a little bit

1002
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 2: better athlete, and I also think he's a two position player.

1003
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 2: Now I could be way off on what his value is,

1004
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 2: who knows, but I'd be happier with him at twenty

1005
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 2: seven because I.

1006
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 1: Think he gives you more.

1007
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 2: And I'm very interested to see where we're headed with

1008
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:19,799
Speaker 2: Sean McDermott and this defense with him calling it. We've

1009
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 2: got Taylor rap in here, he may be playing a

1010
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:27,280
Speaker 2: third safety role. Do you want? Are we getting closer

1011
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 2: to multiple position athletes on defense? Is that where we

1012
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,279
Speaker 2: are trending? Because if we are, Drew Sanders is a

1013
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 2: two position player as I.

1014
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 1: See it, Yes, I agree with all of that.

1015
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 3: I think there's a question as to how different the

1016
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,279
Speaker 3: defense will look in the scheme it will run the

1017
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 3: different because they never changed personnel when in down and

1018
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 3: distance under Leslie Frasier, But now Sean McDermott's doing all that.

1019
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,920
Speaker 3: Are they going to be more will to put different

1020
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 3: personnel groups on the field. Are they gonna be dictated

1021
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 3: by their roster to put more combinations on the field

1022
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 3: to match up with teams? Are they still gonna be

1023
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 3: this nickel defense?

1024
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 1: And that's it kind of thing.

1025
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 3: Whether that was Leslie Fraser, whether it's Sean McDermott, whatever,

1026
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:20,719
Speaker 3: we're gonna find out. But there's some questions that we

1027
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 3: don't know the answers to, and those questions and the

1028
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 3: answers to those questions have a lot to do with

1029
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,560
Speaker 3: what that middle linebacker is going to be asked to do,

1030
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 3: and who's gonna be there and what they even how

1031
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: much they even care about that spot. So there's a

1032
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 3: lot we don't know about what this defense is gonna

1033
00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 3: be this season, let alone who's gonna line up at

1034
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:40,280
Speaker 3: middle linebacker.

1035
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:44,800
Speaker 2: Mm hm. We have to take a break here, but

1036
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 2: when we come back our number two, we'll be talking

1037
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 2: one of the final mock drafts that are out there,

1038
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,440
Speaker 2: and we'll also be talking about some of the latest

1039
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 2: rumors that are out there concerning some of the top

1040
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:03,800
Speaker 2: picks in the draft tonight, round one, and we'll be

1041
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 2: doing that with Evan Silva coming up next here on

Speaker 2: Eve of football season.

1051
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 8: I'm super excited. I'm nervous. I have a lot of anxiety.

1052
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 8: You know, how much stuff am I going to get wrong?

1053
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 8: How many of my predictions are going to go wrong.

1054
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 8: I mean, everybody's that it's they're gonna be crazy outcomes tonight,

1055
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 8: and I don't know, we'll see. I'm ready to get

1056
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 8: started though.

1057
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1058
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 3: And as you see this thing take shape, how deep

1059
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 3: into the top ten or the first round tonight do

1060
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 3: you think it will go before it kind of goes

1061
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 3: off the rails and we start getting people that are surprising,

1062
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 3: How deep do you think they go? I mean, certainly

1063
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 3: you could interchange maybe fifteen guys into the top ten,

1064
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,399
Speaker 3: but outside of that, then all of a sudden, maybe

1065
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 3: you get a player like a thirty five ranking into

1066
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 3: the top ten, that kind of thing. How deep do

1067
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 3: you think it goes before they go off the rails.

1068
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 8: That's a really good question, I think, thinking logically, because

1069
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 8: this is not regarded as a strong draft. I mean,

1070
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 8: Brandon Bean kind of alluded to that. Jordan Renan, who

1071
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 8: covers the Giants, was talking about some teams don't even

1072
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 8: have first round grade. Teams have first round grades on

1073
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:03,440
Speaker 8: fewer than ten players in the draft. So thinking logically,

1074
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 8: are there guys worth trading up for? You know, I

1075
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 8: don't know, you know, so I kind of think that

1076
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,920
Speaker 8: there is a chance that there isn't as much chaos

1077
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:16,360
Speaker 8: as a lot of people are predicting, and that teams

1078
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 8: are gonna sit and pick unless unless teams up top

1079
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 8: are willing to take discounts to trade down, which I

1080
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 8: think that the Cardinals might because they I mean, they

1081
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,359
Speaker 8: just need picks period because their roster is so poor.

1082
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 8: So I think that there's actually a chance that it

1083
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,400
Speaker 8: could not. It might not be as chaotic as a

1084
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,040
Speaker 8: lot of people are predicting.

1085
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:36,520
Speaker 2: But who knows.

1086
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 8: I mean, you know, when when teams get desperate for

1087
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 8: quarterbacks and there are I think gonna be five first

1088
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 8: round quarterbacks, you know, teams teams make move to get

1089
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 8: the most impactful position in pro sports EVN.

1090
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 2: I know in your column that you put up on

1091
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,959
Speaker 2: established orun dot com about ten things I think about

1092
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,760
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty three NFL Draft, you were pretty adamant

1093
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 2: that wide receiver was going to be drafted before pick thirteen.

1094
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 2: I think the general consensus is Smith and Jigmil will

1095
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,800
Speaker 2: be the first off the board. My question to you is,

1096
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 2: we all know this is considered a watered down receiver class,

1097
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 2: particularly at the top. It's lacking alpha males. If you will,

1098
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 2: do you think the class is good enough with the

1099
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 2: first round graded guys that many people feel will go

1100
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 2: in that round. Is there are there enough there to

1101
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:26,400
Speaker 2: create a run on receiver and if so, where do

1102
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 2: you think that happens.

1103
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, so, you know, some of the more plugged in

1104
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 8: national reporters and analysts kind of came to a little

1105
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 8: bit of a consensus beginning last night when Daniel Jeremiah

1106
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,040
Speaker 8: did his mock draft and he had the Titans taking

1107
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,920
Speaker 8: Ja Flowers at number eleven.

1108
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 4: Wow.

1109
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 8: Overall, that was really really early, you know, and I

1110
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,359
Speaker 8: think a lot of people expect Smith and jig Butt

1111
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 8: to go to the Packers at number thirteen. I see

1112
00:54:57,480 --> 00:54:59,400
Speaker 8: to this point, I had been expecting the run to

1113
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 8: happen in the twenties. Quinton Johnston at a TCU I

1114
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 8: think will be a first round pick somewhere in the twenties.

1115
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,799
Speaker 8: And then Jordan Addison. A lot of teams really like him,

1116
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 8: and I think Chargers at twenty one make a lot

1117
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:14,719
Speaker 8: of sense to him. I think it'll be a little

1118
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,800
Speaker 8: bit more spread out. But I do think that the

1119
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 8: the Bills at twenty seven, I think that they might

1120
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 8: be the end of the run.

1121
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 1: Actually, this draft of wide receivers, and we've talked about

1122
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:30,319
Speaker 1: a lot.

1123
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,400
Speaker 3: They all kind of seem to be a little bit undersized,

1124
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 3: except for Quinton Johnson and some guys further are actually

1125
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 3: way down the list. There's a couple of bigger guys

1126
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 3: down the list, but the top ten guys, with the

1127
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 3: exception of maybe one or two, are all undersized NFL

1128
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 3: wide receivers.

1129
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: Certainly, they all bring it, you know, all bring something

1130
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:51,720
Speaker 1: to the table.

1131
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:55,280
Speaker 3: But what separates one guy from the What's separates Jordan

1132
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:59,399
Speaker 3: Addison from you know, Smith and Jigba, What separates Smith

1133
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 3: and Jigba from Flowers because they all are very similar

1134
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 3: in their size and what they've been asked to do

1135
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 3: in college.

1136
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that Smith and Jigba and Zay Flowers

1137
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 8: are the true slots. Like, you know, if the Bills

1138
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:18,320
Speaker 8: are looking for a slot receiver, those would be the

1139
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 8: guys that I think that you look that that you

1140
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,759
Speaker 8: look for. And I do think that they're looking for

1141
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 8: a slot receiver. Although you know, you could make an

1142
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 8: argument that if the Bills uh want, like just want

1143
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 8: to take the best receiver that that falls to them,

1144
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,359
Speaker 8: then it might be Quinton Johnston and then you play

1145
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,280
Speaker 8: him outside across from Gabe Davis, and you work Stefan

1146
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 8: Diggs into the slot more, which I think that I

1147
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 8: think that that's a realistic scenario if that's something that

1148
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:51,000
Speaker 8: that they want to do. So I think that so

1149
00:56:51,239 --> 00:56:53,839
Speaker 8: so Flowers and Smith and Jigba stand out because they're

1150
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 8: they're slot receivers, and Jordan Addison can do a little

1151
00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 8: bit of both. And then I think Quinton Johnston is

1152
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 8: like the clear, you're outside guy, let's flip.

1153
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:06,799
Speaker 2: It to offensive tackle here, because I think that's an outside,

1154
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 2: you know, shot for the Bills to tap into if

1155
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 2: the value matches up. And I was interested to see

1156
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:18,360
Speaker 2: and we've heard this. You know that Darnell wright Stock

1157
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 2: was going through the roof here in the late going,

1158
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 2: and you've got him going fifteenth to the Jets, So

1159
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,919
Speaker 2: that's not much of a surprise based on what we've

1160
00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 2: heard and read and seen out there. But then you've

1161
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 2: got Tipman going twenty four to the Jaguars, the center

1162
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 2: guard from Wisconsin, and then you don't have another tackle

1163
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 2: coming off the board until Broderick Jones all the way

1164
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,680
Speaker 2: down at thirty one. We've seen him routinely in the

1165
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 2: teen's early twenties the latest. Are you hearing anything on

1166
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,959
Speaker 2: Broderick Jones. Why the drop for him and your mock?

1167
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:57,960
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean when you're doing a mock draft, sometimes

1168
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 8: you know, you're just trying to match players with teams

1169
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,800
Speaker 8: and specifically positions. I mean, at one time I had

1170
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 8: Anton Harrison from Oklahoma as the number thirty one pick

1171
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 8: to Kansas City. I actually think that he could play.

1172
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:17,960
Speaker 8: He could be in play for the Bills. Yeah, at

1173
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:23,440
Speaker 8: number twenty seven. He was supposed to not be super athletic,

1174
00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,200
Speaker 8: but he went to the Combine. He tested really well.

1175
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 8: He's got really long arms, and I mean he played

1176
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 8: a lot of football at Oklahoma. Yeah, I mean I

1177
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 8: think Broderick Jones is probably going to go earlier than

1178
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 8: thirty one. That's just kind of how the mock shook out.

1179
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 8: And you know, I wanted to I wanted to make

1180
00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 8: sure that I had him in the first round. I

1181
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 8: just you know, I was matching a bunch of other

1182
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 8: tackles to teams, and he just happened to slip the

1183
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 8: thirty one. It's just kind of how it.

1184
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,040
Speaker 2: Goes, gotcha, right, right? Yeah?

1185
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 3: Do you think that, as you said, We've heard it

1186
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 3: from the beginning of this it wasn't a strong group

1187
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 3: of receivers, and it's and it's spilled over in some

1188
00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 3: of the things. It's deep and tight end, deep in

1189
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,280
Speaker 3: edge rushers, but overall this is a draft that's kind

1190
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 3: of a yawner in the big picture. Are we still

1191
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 3: suffering from the twenty twenty pandemic and where that NCAA

1192
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 3: allowed guys to come back for a fifth year? A

1193
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:17,800
Speaker 3: lot of guys stayed out of the draft that year

1194
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,240
Speaker 3: and then the next year. There was a huge pool

1195
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 3: of players in twenty twenty one, twenty two, and now

1196
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,600
Speaker 3: players are staying in college a little longer because they've

1197
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 3: got NAAL money and some of them will take a

1198
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:34,200
Speaker 3: pay cut coming to the pros. Do you think this

1199
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 3: is kind of a trend where the draft is kind

1200
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 3: of finding its own level after the chaos of the

1201
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 3: last two or three years.

1202
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's it's starting to bounce back to

1203
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 8: normal because there were a lot of guys, I mean,

1204
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 8: just teams didn't have a whole lot of tape on guys. Shoot,

1205
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 8: there was one year that wasn't even a combine, right,

1206
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 8: you know, So yeah, I think it's starting to bounce

1207
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 8: back toward normalcy, But you're right. I mean teams were

1208
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,520
Speaker 8: kind of wing it there for a while, and they

1209
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 8: had to rely on really small sample size of game

1210
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:10,440
Speaker 8: tape to watch and you know, and like talking to

1211
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 8: the college departments about how athletic the guys really were

1212
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:19,120
Speaker 8: and how they tested, you know, privately, and going to

1213
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,280
Speaker 8: the pro days. I mean, yeah, they were winging it

1214
01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 8: for a while, no doubt.

1215
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,840
Speaker 2: What do you see Houston doing at two. There's been

1216
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:30,800
Speaker 2: a lot of talk that they are off the quarterback

1217
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 2: train at two and they may just take the best

1218
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 2: defensive player. I have a hard time, especially know when

1219
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 2: they have picked twelve in what is a deep edge

1220
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 2: rusher class at least at the top, that they're just

1221
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:48,600
Speaker 2: gonna bypass quarterback. I don't know why, but I just

1222
01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:49,280
Speaker 2: can't get there.

1223
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 1: Where are you on that? Well?

1224
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 8: One of the hotter rumors, and I don't know if

1225
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 8: there's any cree ins to this, one of the hotter

1226
01:00:56,400 --> 01:00:58,880
Speaker 8: rumors that came out in the last like forty eight

1227
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 8: hours was that the Patriots want to come up to

1228
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 8: two and take Will Levis and they would trade mac

1229
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,920
Speaker 8: Jones to Houston. You know, there's a lot of people

1230
01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 8: that used to work in New England right that currently

1231
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,640
Speaker 8: work in Houston, So that connection, I don't know if

1232
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 8: that's going to happen, but I mean that is like

1233
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 8: something that has been bancied about. But yeah, I understand.

1234
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 8: I think that the Texans want to play it a

1235
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 8: little bit safe though, and they want to make sure

1236
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,400
Speaker 8: they get two really really good players at two and twelve.

1237
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,280
Speaker 8: And I don't think that they're in love with the

1238
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 8: quarterback class. So well, I totally get what you're saying,

1239
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 8: Like it, are they really going to emerge from you know,

1240
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,840
Speaker 8: their two top twelve picks without a quarterback when all

1241
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 8: they got is with Davis Mills and case Keenum. It

1242
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 8: doesn't make a lot of sense to us. But I

1243
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 8: just I don't think that they're in love with the

1244
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 8: quarterback class.

1245
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: Wow, And if so, who are they in love? And

1246
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:57,200
Speaker 1: that's what you really want to know.

1247
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 3: I mean, they're not going to They probably will not

1248
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:03,160
Speaker 3: be able to get a quarterback at twelve because they'll

1249
01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 3: probably be off the board. Unless they're thinking about taking

1250
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 3: a guy like Hendon Hooker who's not going to play

1251
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,400
Speaker 3: for the first half of the season. Maybe they'll maybe

1252
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 3: they could count on him sliding although I think that's

1253
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:15,160
Speaker 3: in and of itself as a roll of the dice.

1254
01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 3: What what do they do if you know they're not

1255
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,320
Speaker 3: going to trade for mac Jones for the number two

1256
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 3: pick of the draft.

1257
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1258
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 8: You know, they're not a real well run organization, and

1259
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:32,200
Speaker 8: that's been the case for a long time. So you know,

1260
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 8: we're trying to apply our logic to them, and it's

1261
01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 8: just I don't think that that they're thinking like us.

1262
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 11: Oh boy, yeah o.

1263
01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:43,560
Speaker 2: Best of luck to the Texans. Good lord, I hope

1264
01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:46,200
Speaker 2: they don't crawl it up. Jesu yay. I'm not encouraged

1265
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:47,960
Speaker 2: by what I'm hearing here, Evan, you got me even

1266
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 2: I almost feel bad for them, or at least they're

1267
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 2: fans anyway, for goodness sake. The tight end class, you know,

1268
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 2: as Steve mentioned Devan is considered to be super strong.

1269
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:00,360
Speaker 2: We could see as many as five times ends in

1270
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,920
Speaker 2: the top fifty picks. Are you in if you're a

1271
01:03:05,040 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 2: team in need of a tight end are you Are

1272
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 2: you waiting on it because the class is so deep?

1273
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:16,600
Speaker 2: Or is there enough separation from the top two or three,

1274
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,040
Speaker 2: from four, five or six or six, seven or eight

1275
01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:22,000
Speaker 2: to say, well, let's just get the best of the bunch.

1276
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:22,240
Speaker 5: Now.

1277
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:27,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that there are like six really really

1278
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,600
Speaker 8: good tight end prospects, and I think they're going to

1279
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 8: come off the board because again, the rest of the

1280
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 8: class is pretty weak, but these guys are legitimately really

1281
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,400
Speaker 8: good prospects. Luke Musgrave of Oregon State, he made it

1282
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:44,640
Speaker 8: into Daniel Jeremiah's first round mock draft last night, and

1283
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:46,560
Speaker 8: he's been you know, he's like considered like the fifth

1284
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 8: tight end. I think we could see upwards of four

1285
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 8: tight ends go in the first round, and then and

1286
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,000
Speaker 8: and then some other tight ends come off the board

1287
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 8: early in the second. I think that Sam Laporta is

1288
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 8: an excellent prospect out of Iowa. He was really productive

1289
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:04,840
Speaker 8: for two years. These Iowa tight ends had been doing

1290
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 8: great in the NFL. T J Hawkinson, Noah, George Kittle.

1291
01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 8: But I think that Michael Mayer is the true alpha stud.

1292
01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 8: He's an excellent blocker. Reminds me of a lot of

1293
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:21,160
Speaker 8: Todd Heap who played for a long time week and

1294
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,560
Speaker 8: he was a first round pick. And I think that

1295
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 8: his spectrum, Michael Mayer, I think will go in the

1296
01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:30,800
Speaker 8: teams and I think his his his draft spectrum starts

1297
01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:35,160
Speaker 8: with the Packers at thirteen and and I think ends

1298
01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:37,760
Speaker 8: with the Lions at eighteen. I think he'll go somewhere

1299
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 8: in that range.

1300
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 1: What position group has the most first round picks this season?

1301
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:44,640
Speaker 8: I think offensive line?

1302
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, tackles or guards. Will there be some guards taken

1303
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:50,439
Speaker 1: in the first round.

1304
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:53,840
Speaker 8: I think that there will be at least four tackles,

1305
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:58,760
Speaker 8: and I think that Joe Tipman I would I'm considering

1306
01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,400
Speaker 8: Scronski out of North Ustern a tackle for now, but

1307
01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 8: Joe Tipman also could could sneak into the first I

1308
01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:08,960
Speaker 8: think that the Jaguars at number twenty four are hot

1309
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 8: on him and they need interior line help pretty badly.

1310
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 8: And they just just came out to Cam Robinson. Their

1311
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 8: left tackle is going to be suspended. Yes, so they

1312
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:20,440
Speaker 8: need they need a line help.

1313
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. Just you know,

1314
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,480
Speaker 3: Jacksonville may be relegated to tackle instead of guard.

1315
01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:29,160
Speaker 1: But I agree with you, Joe.

1316
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:32,880
Speaker 3: I've been hammering Joe Tipman to Brownie for weeks because

1317
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:34,880
Speaker 3: I think he's just the kind of guy that would be.

1318
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 3: Because the Bills are pretty the Bills have got a

1319
01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:41,040
Speaker 3: really good roster and a guy like Tipman could be

1320
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 3: the air apparent to a center position where Mitch Morris

1321
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 3: is plus add some really quality depth down inside. It's

1322
01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,480
Speaker 3: a hard roster to make, but sooner or later you

1323
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 3: gotta start replenishing. I thought Tipman is really really a

1324
01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:55,640
Speaker 3: good player down inside.

1325
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:57,000
Speaker 1: Could he play guard as well?

1326
01:05:57,800 --> 01:05:58,000
Speaker 11: Yeah?

1327
01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 8: I think so, And I know teams like him more

1328
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:05,880
Speaker 8: than the sort of that the media buzz like. The

1329
01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 8: teams really really like him, and I think that they

1330
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,920
Speaker 8: think he's like clearly the best interior line prospects.

1331
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:15,320
Speaker 2: Last one I've got for you, Evan is you know,

1332
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 2: we all heard the you know, the hype on Bijon

1333
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 2: Robinson and the general consensus is he'll be off the

1334
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:23,439
Speaker 2: board before we get even to the middle of the round.

1335
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,520
Speaker 2: But Jamir Gibbs is getting more play here in the

1336
01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 2: late going as a late first round pick. We've seen

1337
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 2: reports of him being linked to the Bills, the Eagles,

1338
01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:40,160
Speaker 2: the Bengals. What do you think the likelihood is that

1339
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,120
Speaker 2: he sneaks into the bottom around one here.

1340
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:44,400
Speaker 8: If you asked me a week ago, I would have

1341
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:47,360
Speaker 8: said I kind of wasn't buying it, But I think

1342
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 8: it's going to happen, and I think the Eagles at

1343
01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:52,200
Speaker 8: number thirty, assuming that they don't take b John Robinson

1344
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:56,320
Speaker 8: up top, which I do think is a possibility. I

1345
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:00,000
Speaker 8: think the Eagles at number thirty really really like Jamir Gibz,

1346
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 8: and I think that that's a distinct possibility.

1347
01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:06,720
Speaker 1: Evan, good stuff. I can't wait.

1348
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:09,320
Speaker 3: It's like we're all waiting to open our presence here

1349
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 3: on Christmas Eve and we're excited.

1350
01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 1: Thanks for giving us some insight.

1351
01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 2: Appreciate you, all right. That's content creator and creator of

1352
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 2: the website, established the Run dot com. He used to

1353
01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 2: be big on roto World. I remember Evan Silva, so

1354
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,280
Speaker 2: it started his own thing, Established the Run dot Com.

1355
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,080
Speaker 2: He's got a podcast too, so check it out if

1356
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:31,280
Speaker 2: you get a chance. Got some good content on there.

1357
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 2: Always good to catch up with Evan. On the draft,

1358
01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 2: he said Michael Mayer will be the first tight end drafted,

1359
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,840
Speaker 2: and it won't be close yet. The most interesting note

1360
01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:46,280
Speaker 2: that he had on Mayer was his ras His raw

1361
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:50,680
Speaker 2: athletics score was better than Mark Andrews of the Ravens

1362
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 2: really coming out. So I think he gets knocked because

1363
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 2: he doesn't run like a deer like some of these

1364
01:07:57,120 --> 01:08:01,000
Speaker 2: other past catching only tight ends in the class. This

1365
01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,400
Speaker 2: guy does everything and he's still a pretty darn good athlete.

1366
01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1367
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:08,240
Speaker 3: He also he's got a couple of tidbits that he

1368
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 3: you know, through his mock draft and all the stuff

1369
01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,520
Speaker 3: the research that he's done. There's a couple of guys

1370
01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:15,120
Speaker 3: like the edge Russian from Iowa State, Will McDonald and

1371
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:19,519
Speaker 3: the offensive tackle Anton Harrison from Oklahoma. He thinks those

1372
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:23,000
Speaker 3: guys are way higher on most people's boards than guys

1373
01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 3: like you and me think they are. He thinks they're

1374
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:25,479
Speaker 3: gonna go higher than they.

1375
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,840
Speaker 2: I think both those guys sneak into the bottom of

1376
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 2: the round.

1377
01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 3: And he also pegged that Joey Porter Junior the corner

1378
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,800
Speaker 3: out of Penn State and Dalton Kincaid the tight end

1379
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 3: out of Utah. Both those guys have been buzzed a lot.

1380
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 3: He thinks they're not as high as.

1381
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 2: Zoey Porter doesn't have elite testing measurables. He has elite size,

1382
01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 2: elite physicality, but he doesn't have really good testing measurables,

1383
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:51,720
Speaker 2: and so I think that's gonna knock him down a

1384
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:53,759
Speaker 2: little bit. So I would tend to agree with that opinion.

1385
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 2: Dalton Kinkaid just checked out medically like a week and

1386
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 2: a half ago off the back injury, right, and that

1387
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:05,600
Speaker 2: back injuries they're tough, number one and number two. You

1388
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 2: want to talk about a wide variance of opinion, go

1389
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 2: ask ten doctors about the same back injury and you'll

1390
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:13,840
Speaker 2: get about eight different answers the back. If so, you know,

1391
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:15,880
Speaker 2: the medical stats for all these teams are going to

1392
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 2: give them a different give their team a different. Oh,

1393
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:19,840
Speaker 2: don't touch him in the first round. Oh, this is

1394
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:22,000
Speaker 2: a one contract guy. His back's going to be breaking

1395
01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 2: down after year four. You know you're gonna have all

1396
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 2: these different opinions on ken Kaid's back.

1397
01:09:27,120 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 1: Right, If you get the back disease, you're in deep trouble.

1398
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,640
Speaker 3: Because it because it is so mysterious and there's you know,

1399
01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:37,640
Speaker 3: there's no really easy way to get over it, and

1400
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:38,880
Speaker 3: it's debilitating.

1401
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:42,560
Speaker 2: If it's if it's well, he hadn't done anything since Thanksgiving.

1402
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:44,320
Speaker 3: So it's it's a real thing. Now there will be

1403
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:46,040
Speaker 3: and like you said, there's the other side of the

1404
01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:48,280
Speaker 3: corner that two say, hey, guys, this guy is a steal.

1405
01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:51,880
Speaker 3: You get the back thing is nothing, you know, so

1406
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 3: just go ahead and it's not an issue. So some

1407
01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:58,720
Speaker 3: team will say we got the guy right, so that

1408
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 3: those are the kind of thing that's why you find

1409
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 3: out at the combine and all of that stuff, and

1410
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 3: he got and now that he's cleared, I think most

1411
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,519
Speaker 3: teams forget you should treat a guy like that who's

1412
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 3: been cleared and all ready to go, just like you

1413
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:14,920
Speaker 3: would a player on your own team who's already under

1414
01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,479
Speaker 3: contract who gets cleared, like, Okay, let's go, let's see

1415
01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:19,479
Speaker 3: what you got kind of thing. I don't think there's

1416
01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 3: any of that going on with guys who've played in

1417
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:24,760
Speaker 3: the league who got injured at playing football. It's wrong

1418
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 3: to project something sinister on a guy in his future

1419
01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:31,080
Speaker 3: just because you hasn't been he hasn't been on your

1420
01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:34,560
Speaker 3: team yet. So teams kind of get caught up in

1421
01:10:34,640 --> 01:10:35,640
Speaker 3: that a little bit too much.

1422
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,640
Speaker 2: I think sometimes let's get back to the phones and

1423
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,479
Speaker 2: see who your guy is. For the Bills at pick

1424
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 2: twenty seven, tonight open line for you. At eight h

1425
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:47,120
Speaker 2: three oh five fifty, we go to James and Tonawanda,

1426
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 2: who's been waiting patiently. What do you got for us? James?

1427
01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:56,320
Speaker 12: Yeah, I would want to get Darnell right, okay, And

1428
01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 12: or if he's in like the twenty three, trade up

1429
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 12: the gill him or go tight end, just so we

1430
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:05,600
Speaker 12: have a bigger target for a Josh Allen.

1431
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:08,840
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, is there a tight end you like there?

1432
01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:11,000
Speaker 7: All right?

1433
01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:16,760
Speaker 12: Luke Musgrave Okay, yeah, I think he's gonna be like

1434
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,840
Speaker 12: the one there. I'm not too sure. The other two

1435
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 12: might be off the mording right, and Steve wish.

1436
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:25,000
Speaker 4: You were in the Hall of Fame.

1437
01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:26,679
Speaker 12: You're a Hall of Famer to us.

1438
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 1: So we love you.

1439
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 3: Thanks, James, I appreciate your uh, listen, I don't think

1440
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:37,800
Speaker 3: just we thought Darnell Wright was gonna be there when

1441
01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 3: we all started this two months ago, three months ago.

1442
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 3: But yeah, Darnell right, maybe then we started watching him

1443
01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 3: and says, yeah, we hope he's gonna be here.

1444
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 1: That'd be awesome. I like the guy.

1445
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:48,080
Speaker 3: We could get him at twenty seven. Then later on

1446
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,000
Speaker 3: it's like, we ain't getting him. We're gonna have trade

1447
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 3: up to get him now, because the more we watch

1448
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:55,560
Speaker 3: him and the more you find out about him, the

1449
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:56,639
Speaker 3: more he's like, ah.

1450
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:58,519
Speaker 1: He's too good. He's never in the line right.

1451
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:02,679
Speaker 2: And while trading up is you know, all good and well,

1452
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:06,439
Speaker 2: the Bills are not dealing from a position of strength

1453
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 2: in terms of draft capital. Sure, they could lob in

1454
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:13,120
Speaker 2: some picks next year and make a trade happen if

1455
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,400
Speaker 2: they really felt they had to do it. But they're

1456
01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:18,040
Speaker 2: not dealing from a position of strength this year with

1457
01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 2: only six picks, and they need cheap labor on the roster.

1458
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 2: And that's why Brandon Bean said, you know, if you're

1459
01:12:26,320 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 2: placing a bet in Vegas, the Bills are more likely

1460
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 2: to trade out around one than they are to trade up. Yeah,

1461
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:34,599
Speaker 2: knowing they'll have to give up some of the limited

1462
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:35,760
Speaker 2: draft capital they already had.

1463
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 3: There's two there's two sides to this coin. We've been

1464
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,760
Speaker 3: talking about them. I see if I can encapsulate them. One,

1465
01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:44,680
Speaker 3: it's a very weak draft topped about. There's not that

1466
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:48,000
Speaker 3: many players that are really difference makers. Even in the

1467
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,200
Speaker 3: top of the first round, there's only ten or twelve,

1468
01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 3: less than fifteen guys that most teams think that's a

1469
01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:57,479
Speaker 3: guy you got to take if you're there. Everybody below

1470
01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:03,600
Speaker 3: that is not that, and so there's everybody behind that.

1471
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 3: You start to get varied and more wide ranging opinions

1472
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:09,719
Speaker 3: about everybody who's left after those first ten or fifteen guys,

1473
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,800
Speaker 3: Very wide ranging opinions So what happens when you get

1474
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 3: to the twenty seventh pick of Buffalo. There has to

1475
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,000
Speaker 3: be some team out there, which is very possible actually,

1476
01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:23,840
Speaker 3: that they have a very high value on a guy

1477
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,479
Speaker 3: that's fallen to twenty seven that you don't have, or

1478
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 3: that nobody else has. So there is that possibility that

1479
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:34,599
Speaker 3: somebody out there thinks there's no way this guy should

1480
01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:38,639
Speaker 3: still be on the board, when in actuality, nobody believes

1481
01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 3: he should. He should not be on the board, right.

1482
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:45,080
Speaker 3: You got to find that team and trade them to

1483
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:47,519
Speaker 3: get extra picks, because you know the guy's a stiff

1484
01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:49,519
Speaker 3: even though they think he's valuable.

1485
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:50,760
Speaker 1: So there's all this.

1486
01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:54,719
Speaker 3: On one side, it's a shallow draft. Nobody wants to trade.

1487
01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 3: Most people aren't going to want to trade up to

1488
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:59,600
Speaker 3: twenty seven because there's nothing worth taking there. But the

1489
01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:03,920
Speaker 3: wide variants of opinions speaks against that. So they might

1490
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,439
Speaker 3: be somebody out there thinking, I can't believe he's still there,

1491
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:12,599
Speaker 3: get it, don't get him right. So the very well

1492
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 3: both ends of that spectrum make it the wild wild

1493
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:16,720
Speaker 3: West out there.

1494
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:18,599
Speaker 2: It's gonna be wild tonight, I think it is. I'll

1495
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 2: be surprised if it's not. I think the wide range

1496
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 2: of opinions, or the wide the perceived wider range of

1497
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:28,200
Speaker 2: opinions on prospects than we're used to seeing. This is

1498
01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:30,400
Speaker 2: going to prompt teams to act.

1499
01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:32,760
Speaker 3: Do you have the courage to stand there and say,

1500
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:36,080
Speaker 3: I know that guy's really gonna be good, but I

1501
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 3: know too that we may not. We may be the

1502
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:40,200
Speaker 3: only ones who believe it. So we're gonna sit tight

1503
01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:42,120
Speaker 3: and he's gonna be there at thirty four rather than

1504
01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:42,760
Speaker 3: twenty seven.

1505
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,680
Speaker 2: Mel Kiper said this, and you can take what mel

1506
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 2: says with a grain of salt, but he's been doing

1507
01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:49,879
Speaker 2: this a long time. He's seen a lot of draft classes,

1508
01:14:49,920 --> 01:14:53,520
Speaker 2: and he said the variance of opinion is so widespread

1509
01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:57,439
Speaker 2: in the scouting community on so many players that if

1510
01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,840
Speaker 2: your team comes out of this draft and in three

1511
01:15:00,360 --> 01:15:02,920
Speaker 2: gets an A plus, an A or a B plus

1512
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 2: grade on their draft class this year, they all deserve

1513
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,839
Speaker 2: a race because this is the hardest one to evaluate

1514
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:10,720
Speaker 2: that they've seen in like fifteen twenty nine.

1515
01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,760
Speaker 3: That says a lot, and I agree with it from

1516
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,320
Speaker 3: what we've heard and what we said. Mel Kiper's all overnight,

1517
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:16,760
Speaker 3: and I would agree with him on that there's a

1518
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:18,120
Speaker 3: lot of stuff you don't agree with him on, and

1519
01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:19,599
Speaker 3: he's been wrong as much as been right.

1520
01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 1: She's like every GM. But that makes a lot of

1521
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:22,760
Speaker 1: sense to me.

1522
01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 2: Break time for us here when we come back, more

1523
01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:28,840
Speaker 2: of your phone calls on who is your guy for

1524
01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,599
Speaker 2: the Bills pick at twenty seven? We got an open

1525
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 2: line for you at eight oh three five point fifty

1526
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:36,080
Speaker 2: your phone calls next here on One Bill's Live on

1527
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 2: Draft Day. All right, welcome back to One Bill's Live.

1528
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,519
Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you asking you for your pick?

1529
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,840
Speaker 2: Who's your guy for the Bills that picked twenty seven?

1530
01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:57,880
Speaker 2: Back to the phones and to Kevin and Hamburg. Next,

1531
01:15:57,960 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 2: what do you got Kevin?

1532
01:15:58,800 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 10: Guys, tell you do it? Thanks for in my call. Sure,

1533
01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:04,120
Speaker 10: I'm gonna try something different and say who I don't

1534
01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 10: want the Bills to get and throw a little monkey

1535
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 10: wrench who I don't want the Bills to get in

1536
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:09,000
Speaker 10: this case?

1537
01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:09,280
Speaker 2: Right?

1538
01:16:09,560 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 10: And that's the body catcher from TCU who's had a

1539
01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:15,519
Speaker 10: lot of drops on a team that had way too

1540
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 10: many droughts last year for as far as we were

1541
01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:20,519
Speaker 10: supposed to go, which we didn't. And if you're a

1542
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:23,600
Speaker 10: body catcher, you know what happens, and Steve, you know

1543
01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:26,639
Speaker 10: this because you caught passes once that weather gets cold

1544
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:30,880
Speaker 10: and around from say Halloween and Thanksgiving and Christmas, the

1545
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:34,000
Speaker 10: ball gets cold, the pads get cold. That leads to

1546
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:36,720
Speaker 10: an inevitable disaster that I don't even want to think

1547
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:40,080
Speaker 10: about as any fan, but especially bouncing up in the air,

1548
01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 10: bounce off your pads, and that's just a scary thought

1549
01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:47,240
Speaker 10: because that weather, you know science, cold equals hard. Warm

1550
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 10: egals soft and compared to September when it's like seventy

1551
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:53,240
Speaker 10: and you get a cold, nasty game went to Miami

1552
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 10: before Christmas. Oh, I don't even bounce off. He's had

1553
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 10: a lot of droughts last year in Texas which don't

1554
01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:02,800
Speaker 10: get as holds as we do. I can't imagine the

1555
01:17:02,920 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 10: fine in November December bouncing up and caught by an

1556
01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:06,719
Speaker 10: opposing jersey.

1557
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,000
Speaker 3: All right, fair enough, you have to Kevin, Yeah you

1558
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:12,599
Speaker 3: don't want Jonathan Quinton Johnston then yeah, I get it. Yeah,

1559
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:14,960
Speaker 3: that's been one of the knocks on him. He doesn't

1560
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,120
Speaker 3: catch the ball well enough and catched it with his body.

1561
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,799
Speaker 3: And this just in if you're gonna play wide receiver

1562
01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:24,040
Speaker 3: in the NFL, catching the ball is kind of important.

1563
01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 2: Okay, So what if I told you Steve over the

1564
01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:31,920
Speaker 2: last three seasons that Quentin Johnston has one hundred and

1565
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:36,000
Speaker 2: fifteen receptions over the last three years and a total

1566
01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:40,080
Speaker 2: of thirteen drops. He had a career high eight drops

1567
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:43,960
Speaker 2: last year. Also had a career high sixty receptions for

1568
01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:47,240
Speaker 2: oney sixty nine yards and averaged almost eighteen yards a catch,

1569
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 2: eight drops, sixty catches.

1570
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:54,320
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's yeah, it sounds great to me.

1571
01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:56,559
Speaker 1: He's right. Kevin makes a good point.

1572
01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:58,120
Speaker 2: He played there's a body catch right there.

1573
01:17:58,160 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 3: You just saw he got the body catch it against

1574
01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 3: in KU. But he he had a really nice game

1575
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:06,400
Speaker 3: against the Jayhawks and TCU went off on the line.

1576
01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:08,880
Speaker 3: That was the first game that KU really had their

1577
01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 3: hands full. They got off to a lightning start and

1578
01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:14,840
Speaker 3: TCU came in and lumped them up and Johnston was

1579
01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:15,519
Speaker 3: a big part of it.

1580
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,759
Speaker 1: He had a really nice season.

1581
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:18,880
Speaker 2: You see there.

1582
01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 3: He's a contested catch guy. He's big, and that's rare

1583
01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:25,880
Speaker 3: and unique in this draft class. A big receiver. Now,

1584
01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,360
Speaker 3: there's some guys down the line that I like.

1585
01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:34,080
Speaker 1: I mean that I like. You know, we're talking about

1586
01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 1: what's the guy's named Ford Wheaton out.

1587
01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:39,880
Speaker 2: Of Brice fordft.

1588
01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 3: You can get him day three, uh, and he's six

1589
01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:47,400
Speaker 3: four two twenty five and faster than Johnson.

1590
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:48,720
Speaker 2: He runs a four to three eight.

1591
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:54,080
Speaker 3: So there's guys out there with some traits, but he's

1592
01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 3: got the same knock. He can catch it real that well.

1593
01:18:56,200 --> 01:19:02,080
Speaker 2: Right route running Polish is something Quenton john needs. Makes

1594
01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:04,519
Speaker 2: you wonder like how much work does he need? How

1595
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 2: much is he? Is he worth the first round pick

1596
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,320
Speaker 2: if he's not going to help you in year one?

1597
01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 3: The the evaluation process is like this. There are certain

1598
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:16,000
Speaker 3: things that you coach up, and certain things that come

1599
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:20,800
Speaker 3: from the player. Attitude, commitment to getting better, you know,

1600
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:24,679
Speaker 3: work ethic, all of that stuff comes from inside the player.

1601
01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:27,640
Speaker 3: If you're a coaching staff, you gotta think, listen. I

1602
01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:29,280
Speaker 3: can get I can teach the guy how to run

1603
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 3: a route. I can coach that up. I can coach

1604
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 3: up all this other stuff. Catching the ball, well, I'll

1605
01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:38,160
Speaker 3: get him on the jugs machine. We'll get him catching

1606
01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:39,800
Speaker 3: three hundred balls a day and it'll be like second

1607
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,120
Speaker 3: nature to him. We'll fix all of that. But I

1608
01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:45,240
Speaker 3: can't fix an attitude, and I can't fix like stupid.

1609
01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 3: I can't fix that. A guy can't learn, I can't

1610
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:49,400
Speaker 3: teach him right.

1611
01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: That kind of thing.

1612
01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,960
Speaker 3: There are certain aspects and tool sets that coaching staffs

1613
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,280
Speaker 3: are like, Now, I'll forget that, I'll fix that. I

1614
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,240
Speaker 3: can't fix a guy who's five to six. I don't

1615
01:19:59,280 --> 01:20:00,840
Speaker 3: have to fix the who's six four.

1616
01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:01,720
Speaker 1: Right.

1617
01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:05,320
Speaker 3: You can't coach tall, right, That's about one of the

1618
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:08,040
Speaker 3: few things you can't coach. So you get a guy

1619
01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,559
Speaker 3: like that, and a lot of coaches will say, give

1620
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,000
Speaker 3: me a chance to work on that guy. Or if

1621
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,960
Speaker 3: you're in a guy like a place like the Bills are,

1622
01:20:14,600 --> 01:20:19,720
Speaker 3: like they tried to do with Isaiah Hodgens, give us

1623
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:21,200
Speaker 3: a chance to coach him up and see if we

1624
01:20:21,240 --> 01:20:22,880
Speaker 3: can get him good enough to get on the field.

1625
01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:24,960
Speaker 3: And well, here in Buffalo he couldn't get good enough

1626
01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:26,640
Speaker 3: fast enough to make it on the field. He can

1627
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:27,920
Speaker 3: go to the Giants and play for them.

1628
01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:29,599
Speaker 1: That kind of thing.

1629
01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:33,599
Speaker 3: That's what's what you're looking at. You got a guy

1630
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:36,680
Speaker 3: with some traits and some skills, and your coaching staff's going, now,

1631
01:20:36,720 --> 01:20:39,439
Speaker 3: I can fix that. I can't fix this other thing.

1632
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:41,360
Speaker 3: This guy's easier to coach up and get on the

1633
01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:43,479
Speaker 3: field faster than this guy over here. He has got

1634
01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:45,880
Speaker 3: a different set of problems. That's what you're looking at

1635
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:48,200
Speaker 3: with these draft picks. And there's some guys like Quintin

1636
01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:52,640
Speaker 3: Johnston who are rare in this class. But there are

1637
01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:55,360
Speaker 3: some guys further down the line, like the guy I

1638
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:59,840
Speaker 3: mentioned who you know, they're kind of comparable, don't have

1639
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,800
Speaker 3: the college career he did, but the coaching staff might say, hey,

1640
01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 3: I can fix that guy that we can get in

1641
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 3: the fifth round and make him as good as the

1642
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:07,639
Speaker 3: guy you're thinking about taking it twenty.

1643
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:11,880
Speaker 2: Seven, the same measurables and faster. Yeah, let's go back

1644
01:21:11,920 --> 01:21:14,360
Speaker 2: to the phones. Dennis in North Carolina is next?

1645
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:15,360
Speaker 1: What do you got for his? Dennis?

1646
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:25,360
Speaker 13: He uhbout buffaloft draft Darnell Washington or Dalton McKay from

1647
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:29,720
Speaker 13: Utah because uh Brandon bing hadn't hit the tight end

1648
01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:34,439
Speaker 13: and free agency, and we need some help in the

1649
01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:38,920
Speaker 13: secondary with all the transient scenes going on in the East,

1650
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 13: so you want to think about that.

1651
01:21:41,280 --> 01:21:43,439
Speaker 2: You want guys that can cover receivers, is what you're

1652
01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:47,840
Speaker 2: getting at. Yeah, yeah, you're thinking of tight end or

1653
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:49,400
Speaker 2: second or or secondary.

1654
01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 1: And I get it.

1655
01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:54,719
Speaker 3: A mock I saw today had the Bills taken Dion

1656
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:59,720
Speaker 3: or Brian Branch the defensive back out of out of Alabama. Yeah,

1657
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 3: so that's on the but I'll say this to you,

1658
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:05,160
Speaker 3: I don't have a problem where the Bill's secondary is

1659
01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:09,240
Speaker 3: right now. Trap is gonna help him, Taylor Rap Rap

1660
01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 3: is gonna help them in the back end at safety.

1661
01:22:11,200 --> 01:22:15,360
Speaker 3: They got safety depth, they got corners as Kyrie Elam,

1662
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:17,879
Speaker 3: they got Trey White's gonna come back with a vengeance

1663
01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:20,600
Speaker 3: this year. I would think also Jackson, Dan Jackson and

1664
01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:24,320
Speaker 3: ben and Benford, Taron Johnson, Taron Johnson.

1665
01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:25,719
Speaker 1: They've got guys that can play.

1666
01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:27,200
Speaker 3: I think there is deep and as good in the

1667
01:22:27,240 --> 01:22:29,720
Speaker 3: secondary coming into this training camp, deeper and better than

1668
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:32,639
Speaker 3: they were last year because they didn't have They didn't

1669
01:22:32,680 --> 01:22:35,840
Speaker 3: have Trey and Benford and Kye were huge question marks.

1670
01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:39,040
Speaker 3: So I think this year they got to feel really

1671
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:40,600
Speaker 3: good about where their secondary is.

1672
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:43,640
Speaker 2: So I would corner class, you can get somebody on

1673
01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:45,639
Speaker 2: day three that could be a bottom of the roster.

1674
01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 3: Guy, and this is a deep corner class. So I

1675
01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:49,880
Speaker 3: wouldn't say it's out of the question. I wouldn't say

1676
01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:51,479
Speaker 3: it's out of the question, Dennis, but I wouldn't put

1677
01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:53,240
Speaker 3: it as high as a priority as you do. I'm

1678
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:56,400
Speaker 3: not as scared by the roster right now as you

1679
01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,479
Speaker 3: seem to be. In fact, I'm kind of encouraged by it.

1680
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:01,600
Speaker 2: So I think he's worried about the rest of the

1681
01:23:01,680 --> 01:23:04,600
Speaker 2: division more. No, I get the firepower. That's let's get it.

1682
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:08,920
Speaker 3: You got Wattle, you got Wattle and Hill down in Miami.

1683
01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:11,240
Speaker 3: Then you got those guys, these jokers up here in

1684
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:15,600
Speaker 3: New York. Yeah, Aaron Rodgers, it's tough. It's tough, but

1685
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:17,479
Speaker 3: I think this is the team that can hold up

1686
01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:17,680
Speaker 3: to it.

1687
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:18,200
Speaker 1: Don't forget.

1688
01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:20,160
Speaker 3: This is a real This was a really good defense

1689
01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:22,360
Speaker 3: last year, and I think they could. They got a

1690
01:23:22,439 --> 01:23:26,839
Speaker 3: chance to be more spectacular this year, if not more effective.

1691
01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:29,479
Speaker 2: Let's go to Cal in Grand Island next.

1692
01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:30,120
Speaker 1: What do you got for us?

1693
01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:30,360
Speaker 2: Cal?

1694
01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:32,280
Speaker 4: Hey? How you got doing it?

1695
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:32,880
Speaker 9: A great show?

1696
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:33,639
Speaker 1: I love it's good.

1697
01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:37,679
Speaker 9: What I got is I'd like to see Brandon bean

1698
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:39,640
Speaker 9: like trade down. And I was doing the maths on

1699
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:43,680
Speaker 9: that chart, and twenty seventh pick is worth like six

1700
01:23:43,800 --> 01:23:45,880
Speaker 9: hundred and eighty points, and fifty nine is three tens,

1701
01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:49,519
Speaker 9: so that's nine ninety and if you go back down

1702
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,639
Speaker 9: we can That's the same equivalent as forty and forty one,

1703
01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:54,920
Speaker 9: and I've been looking at I've done a lot of

1704
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:57,559
Speaker 9: mock dress myself, and I believe we can still get

1705
01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 9: Jack Campbell and Jalen hya At both, you know, forty

1706
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 9: and forty one, because like they got Jack in the

1707
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:07,920
Speaker 9: like like late thirties ranked in or upper forties and

1708
01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 9: Jalen Hyatt like forty four or whatever.

1709
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you're doing like a trade sandwich, Cal, You're

1710
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 2: you're trading up from the bottom around two and back

1711
01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:17,439
Speaker 2: from the bottom around one. You're doing a trade sandwich.

1712
01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 9: You got it, And that's what I'd like to get

1713
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:21,960
Speaker 9: both the guys. Like a lot of people who are

1714
01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:24,360
Speaker 9: saying that there's not a lot of first round talent,

1715
01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:27,120
Speaker 9: well it seems like what the Bills need is some

1716
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,360
Speaker 9: of the high end second round talent, and I think

1717
01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:33,000
Speaker 9: that'd be great. You know that Tennessee kid Hyatt, he

1718
01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:35,080
Speaker 9: runs like a four to three and I think he's

1719
01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,280
Speaker 9: got a lot of potential. And I think everybody's agreement

1720
01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,160
Speaker 9: about Jack Campbell. So that's what I do.

1721
01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:43,760
Speaker 2: All right, that's an interesting approach, Cal, Thanks for the call.

1722
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:45,919
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem getting more draft picks.

1723
01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,960
Speaker 2: A trade sandwich. Yeah, you want to move back from

1724
01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:52,760
Speaker 2: one down to forty, so you'd pick up another three

1725
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:56,639
Speaker 2: conceivably there. And then he wants to trade up from

1726
01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:59,439
Speaker 2: fifty nine to forty one, so he wants back to

1727
01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:01,360
Speaker 2: back pick at forty and forty one. So you're probably

1728
01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:03,920
Speaker 2: coughing up that three you just got right, and so

1729
01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,760
Speaker 2: you're basically giving up twenty seven and fifty nine to

1730
01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 2: pick forty and forty one because he thinks.

1731
01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:10,439
Speaker 1: I'm good with that.

1732
01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,560
Speaker 2: That's fine if you got Jack Campbell, you know, and

1733
01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:16,240
Speaker 2: a wide receiver and Jalen.

1734
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,200
Speaker 1: Hyatts, he's a name.

1735
01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:21,000
Speaker 3: But I don't know, I'm having a hard time getting

1736
01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:22,719
Speaker 3: excited about any of these receivers.

1737
01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:24,680
Speaker 2: That guy's one hundred and seventy eight pounds at six

1738
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:25,200
Speaker 2: foot one.

1739
01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:29,240
Speaker 1: I like the roster the way it is now myself.

1740
01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:31,200
Speaker 3: I know I'm kind of in a minority of that

1741
01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:33,320
Speaker 3: for most Bills fans because I think the more the better.

1742
01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:38,680
Speaker 3: I like Sherfield and I love Hardy, the guys they

1743
01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,360
Speaker 3: got on in free agency along with Gabe Diggs.

1744
01:25:43,479 --> 01:25:47,200
Speaker 1: The guys they've got I just Khalis Shakir.

1745
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:52,160
Speaker 3: I like that roster, and like I said, I was

1746
01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 3: telling guys today I'm everybody knows, I'm like all in

1747
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,759
Speaker 3: on this team. This is a team that's roster before

1748
01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 3: this draft is good enough to win the division and

1749
01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 3: go to and win the Super Bowl.

1750
01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:05,040
Speaker 1: This draft is gravy. They're cherry.

1751
01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:07,120
Speaker 3: It's gonna be cherry on the cake if they get

1752
01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:10,120
Speaker 3: somebody who can actually help. But right now, if this

1753
01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:14,559
Speaker 3: roster will to stay complete, one hundred percent healthy, they're

1754
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 3: gonna they'll they'll go. They'll may lose three games again,

1755
01:26:19,240 --> 01:26:20,519
Speaker 3: and they won't lose them by a total of eight

1756
01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:22,040
Speaker 3: they'll lose them by less than a total of eight

1757
01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:23,880
Speaker 3: points the way they did last year. I mean, that's

1758
01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:26,599
Speaker 3: the way this team is. Josh gives them that chance.

1759
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:29,840
Speaker 3: James Cook gives them that chance. Dawson Knox gave Davis

1760
01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 3: Steph Diggs. This new refurbished offensive line getting a little younger,

1761
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:35,400
Speaker 3: and if they stay healthy, they won't have to be

1762
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:40,160
Speaker 3: you know, Defenser Brown will play better. Yeah, they're yeah,

1763
01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:47,240
Speaker 3: this roster. To me, this draft is just about hood

1764
01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:50,840
Speaker 3: ornaments and paint jobs. This is not about an engine. Okay,

1765
01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 3: this roster's got its engine.

1766
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:54,840
Speaker 2: We'll take a break here, take a couple more phone calls.

1767
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:56,640

Speaker 2: one you wish. Steve going to quickly give our little

1782
01:28:02,680 --> 01:28:06,160
Speaker 2: pod of players that we think could be picked. Twenty seven.

1783
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:09,600
Speaker 3: Go okay, one, we believe Brownie knife the pick up

1784
01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:12,080
Speaker 3: twenty seven instead of trading out of trading Van Allad Yuck.

1785
01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:15,000
Speaker 3: One of these four players or five players in Brownie's case,

1786
01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:17,479
Speaker 3: are going to be a Buffalo Bill. My four players

1787
01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:21,720
Speaker 3: are Joe Tipman center out of Wisconsin, Jordan Addison, wide

1788
01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:24,799
Speaker 3: receiver out of USC, Jack Campbell, linebacker out of Iowa,

1789
01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:28,599
Speaker 3: or Brian Brasci defensive tackle out of Clemson.

1790
01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:31,720
Speaker 2: Okay, we've got a couple of overlaps. I too had

1791
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,920
Speaker 2: Jordan Addison on my list. I also had Brian Brezze

1792
01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 2: on my list. Additionally, I have Anton Harrison, the Oklahoma tackle.

1793
01:28:41,120 --> 01:28:44,760
Speaker 2: I have Drew Sanders, the Arkansas linebacker, and I have

1794
01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 2: Will McDonald, the edge rusher from Iowa State. There's just

1795
01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:51,160
Speaker 2: a sense that I have that there the value is

1796
01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:52,840
Speaker 2: going to be on the defensive side of the ball.

1797
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:54,240
Speaker 2: By the time we get down there.

1798
01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:57,639
Speaker 3: It will be Yeah, maybe maybe there's a run on defenders.

1799
01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:01,280
Speaker 3: Maybe teams are going to start soaking up defensive players

1800
01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:03,639
Speaker 3: rather than offensive players. You know, we've always talked about

1801
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:05,880
Speaker 3: the arms race that the AFC is, and how we

1802
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:07,400
Speaker 3: can kind of get caught up in the wide you know,

1803
01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:08,000
Speaker 3: all that stuff.

1804
01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:10,559
Speaker 1: It may be that these things. Listen, the best players

1805
01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:12,880
Speaker 1: are on the defensive side. Let's get one right.

1806
01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:15,639
Speaker 2: We are out of time for today. Sorry, we couldn't

1807
01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:18,479
Speaker 2: get to everybody waiting on the line for their picks.

1808
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:24,879
Speaker 2: Four pick twenty seven tonight, But everybody enjoy the chaos

1809
01:29:25,200 --> 01:29:28,840
Speaker 2: that will ensue pretty early in this draft. It's gonna

1810
01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:30,479
Speaker 2: be a wild Yeah, we're going it's gonna be a

1811
01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:32,800
Speaker 2: lot of fun. Brownie and Mad you're gonna be here.

1812
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 2: I will be watching them. I hope you guys will too.

1813
01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:36,400
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a fun night. And then we'll be

1814
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:38,479
Speaker 2: back tomorrow at one to break it all down here

1815
01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 2: on One Bill's Live. We'll see that
