I can't wait 23 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: to see who they pick. A couple of picks on 24 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: the schedule for the Bills tonight at fifty four and 25 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: then at eighty six. But last night was round one. 26 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: What do you think around one, Steve? But went pretty smoothly, 27 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: didn't it. Yeah, I mean there was some you know, 28 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: this kind of always you kind of get used to 29 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: the smoothness of the network broadcast, where you know, when 30 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: they're doing things virtually, there's always that slight two or 31 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: three second delay between questions and answers and the guys 32 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: on the panel who would be in studio together around 33 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: the table, you know, they have to wait for that 34 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: awkward second or two for the other guy to finish, 35 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: and then there's a waiting than which guy. You know, 36 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: there's a couple of awkward moments like that with the conversation. 37 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: But no, I was I was okay with it. Yeah, 38 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: that was that was fine. I didn't need anything much 39 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: more than that. You know that that little delay is 40 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: a small price to pay, I think, right, I mean 41 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: things once. Look, we had envisioned and we were asking 42 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: questions going into around one of the draft about what 43 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: about a major technical screw up? What if that happened, 44 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, somebody's internet goes out, somebody's phone goes out. 45 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: Didn't happen. There was a report that Vic Fangio, the 46 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: Broncos coach, lost his internet, but he didn't pick until 47 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: late in the draft. I thought, I thought it went 48 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: pretty well. I thought it went pretty smoothly. From a 49 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: technical sent yesterday, right, yeah, I thought it was. I 50 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: thought it was what do you say? Fine? You know, yeah, 51 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: I had no problems with it at all. It's it's 52 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: about everything I needed, you know, all the stuff that 53 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: you and I talked about him And I don't need 54 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: the guys making a two hundred yard walk down the hallway, 55 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: grabbing a cap from you know, Dave Kens, you're from 56 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: New Era, and stepping upon the stage and giving Roger. 57 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: I didn't need any of that. I just I want 58 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: to see the kid. That's great, show me his highlights. Awesome. Now, 59 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: let's who's next. Right, it went smoothly and it went 60 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: um According to forum. I remember you were telling me 61 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: yesterday about somebody at CBS Sports predicted a wild rash 62 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: of trades. It never happened. Yesterday. There were what two 63 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: trades in the first round, right, um? Or three? Three 64 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: trades in the first round. But it never got too crazy. 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: The quarterbacks foul as expected. It never got too crazy 66 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: last night. Yeah, the and the you know, Patriots traded 67 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: out a couple of teams flip flop, the Niners and 68 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: the who was it nine Tampa Bay flip flop picks, 69 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: which to me seemed crazy. Um, why would Tampa Bay 70 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: want to trade up one slot? That makes no sense 71 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: to me. I don't think the Niners were gonna take 72 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: the guy they wanted. I don't know. Maybe so anyway, Yeah, 73 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: pretty quiet on that front, and I'm good with it. 74 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: And I think the two the thing that always gets 75 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: you in we should have known. But there's a lot 76 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: of really quality players sitting on the board. As you 77 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: think there would be a second round of the NFL Draft. 78 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: There's some guys out there that can help, and it's 79 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: gonna be fun to see who goes first. Yeah, last 80 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: night's first round, sixteen players from the SEC half the 81 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: draft comes from the SEC. That is amazing. In sixteen schools, 82 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: only sixteen schools represented in the first round. That's amazing. 83 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: See that one college athletic conference can produce half the 84 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: first round selections, right, and it goes to show the 85 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: level of competition of the speed that is so prevalent 86 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: in the SEC. I mean those you know, it carries 87 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: a lot of weight. Coaches love putting guys that are 88 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: physically faster on the field. It makes their concepts and 89 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: their play calls look all that much better and it's 90 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: easier to win. So that's always gonna be a thing. Plus, 91 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: there's the old thing you can't coach size, Get big, strong, 92 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: fast athletes and you're gonna your football team's gonna be better. 93 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: And that's that's what a lot of coaches adhere to. 94 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: And the SEC's full of guys like that plan at 95 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: the highest level. So you know they're gonna always have 96 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: their share in the in the first round. But man 97 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: oh man, they dominated six wide receivers in the first round. 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 1: The first one didn't go until number twelve, when Henry 99 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: Ruggs of Alabama went to the Las Vegas Raiders. Six 100 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: wide receivers in the first round, and many people believe 101 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: there's another couple of two or three that might be 102 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: first round quality was available now going into day two. Yeah, 103 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: and there always is. I don't know if they dropped 104 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: to fifty four where the Buffalo Bills pick. But you 105 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: and I are gonna, you know, try our hand at 106 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: maybe taking a stab at maybe a couple of players, 107 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: at a couple of positions that we think may the Bills, 108 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: that may tickle the Bills fantasy. And let me just 109 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: be the first to say, you and I talk about 110 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: the Bills all day every day. We have people from 111 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: all over the country who come in and they have 112 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: mock drafts and all that, and we have no shot 113 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: at getting these right. Between you and I'm not conceding 114 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: defeating that. You know, we don't know. People say, well, 115 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: I think the guys on One Bill's Live might know something. No, 116 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: we don't. We think we know. We we watched the team, 117 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 1: and we've been watching and we can pay close attention, 118 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: but nobody's calling us, and we're not calling I didn't. 119 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I didn't call anybody 120 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: to make my picks about who we're gonna who we're 121 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: gonna take right, were gonna have hunches, and that's what 122 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about. That's all they are, right definite, 123 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: And you and I are we're neck deep. We're now 124 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: we're eyeballs deep into this Bill's Draft. We have been 125 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: for quite some time. So it's fun that it's all. 126 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: It's here already, and all these guys we've been talking 127 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: about with Greg Cosell and all the draft nicks, and 128 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: it's fun to see him finally come off the board 129 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: and see who's gonna be there for the Bills to pick. 130 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 1: There were six cornerbacks chosen last night in the first round, 131 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: a couple of surprising names that I had heard of. 132 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,119 Speaker 1: It didn't know they were first round considered first round talent. 133 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: Atlanta went for a cornerback from Clemson AJ Terrell, and 134 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: the Raiders got a quarterback from Ohio State Damon Arnette. 135 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: I didn't see anywhere, did any nowhere? Did I see 136 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: anybody have those two in the first round. And in 137 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: the end there were six cornerbacks selected, which was a 138 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: lot I thought last night, right, you know, you figured 139 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: was Jeff Okuda, you know he went, and it was CJ. 140 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: Henderson to Jacksonville, a couple of you know that. Aj Terrell, 141 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: You're right, and Damon Arnette. I didn't know he was 142 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: that highly thought of. I imagine without well Damon Arnette, 143 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: probably you go to the Raiders and the one thing 144 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: you can do is probably his run. But he ran 145 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: a four or five six forty. He does have a 146 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: trait though, that I'm looking at for the guys that 147 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: I'm picking for, maybe the Bills to pick Murph. He's 148 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: six feet tall at corny. I think that's becoming much 149 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: sought after commodity, A big corner who can run, and 150 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna get to our Bills are hunches on who 151 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: they might get a little bit later on in this hour. 152 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: But I agree with that. I think a big quarterback 153 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: would be essential to the Bills, especially to play opposite 154 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: for Davious White. Perhaps what else do I want to 155 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: make it known? If there was one running back? The 156 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: last pick, the thirty second pick last night was the 157 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: only running back selected, And I know that's going to 158 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: play well to a lot of people are looking for 159 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: the Bills to pick a running back in this draft. 160 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: Well you know they're available. Just one guy went last night, 161 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: the thirty second overall pick, Kansas City took Clyde to 162 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire from LSU, So you almost have your pick 163 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: of the running backs, which I'm sure we'll excite some 164 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: of our listeners. Steve, Yeah, I mean DeAndre Swift's on 165 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: the board, Jonathan Taylor, Cam Akers, JK. Dobbins, AJ Dillon, 166 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: the kid from Boston College who six foot two forty 167 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: seven or in a four to five forty I mean 168 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: a big, strong, fast kid. There's a lot of guys 169 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: on there. You know though, the kid that went off 170 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: the board, the Hilaire kid. I was watching that, Clyde 171 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire, you know who he reminded me of when 172 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: I was watching his highlights at LSU. Who reminded me 173 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: of Devin Singletary. Really the vision that he had and 174 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: his change of direction. It looked to me exactly like Motor, 175 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: almost exactly the style, the way he was running, making 176 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: guys miss. He looked a hair faster than Motor does 177 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: when he breaks loose. But they looked to be the 178 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: almost identical. Clyde Edwards Hilaire and Devin Singletary their style 179 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 1: and the way they look when they got the ball 180 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: in their hands. Uh, there's four quarterbacks went last night, 181 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: and they went pretty much as expected. Joe Burrow first 182 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: overall from LSU went to Cincinnati to a Tago Vieloha 183 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: went to Alabama at five, and the Chargers followed it 184 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: up with Justin the Herbert from Oregon at number six, 185 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: and then deep in the first round Jordan Love a 186 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: bit of a surprise. We'll talk about Green Bay traded 187 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: up to get Jordan's Love from Utah State, but let's 188 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: talk about Ta taga Viola fifth overall to the Dolphins. 189 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: I guess it didn't matter if you're tanking for Tuah 190 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: or not. You got him anyway if you're the Dolphins, 191 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: right yeah, And and good for them. I mean that 192 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 1: the guy is really um. He's a good player, he's polished, 193 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: he was thought as a he was thought a pro 194 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: prospect when he was a freshman, much like the guy 195 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: uh Lawrence in uh In at Clemson right now. You 196 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: see this guy at Alabama to a Tiger Valoah. And 197 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: remember he got Jalen Hurts benched as a freshman. And 198 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts was a guy who had who had gotten 199 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: him deep into the college playoff and gotten close to 200 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: a college Chuney. You can't remember Jalen Hurts wanted or not, 201 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: but Ta got a really good quarterback. Benched as a 202 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: freshman at the top college, top university football in you know, 203 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: in the country. He was thought to be a pro 204 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 1: prospect of everybody laid eyes on him, and ed has 205 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: not changed. The only thing it has changed that he's 206 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: gotten nicked up along the way. So the Dolphins are thinking, 207 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: you know what, it's impossible to predict or not predict 208 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: a guy staying healthy or being injured. It's happened both directions, Murph. 209 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: Guys have been injured their entire college career, come out 210 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: in the pros and and played well and had long, 211 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: productive careers without an injury history. And this's been the 212 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: opposite of kids come out scott free in college and 213 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: been never been able to get on the field enough 214 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 1: as a pro. It's impossible to predict. But to a 215 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: tag of VLOA with his injury history, I'm kind of 216 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: with the Dolphins on it. I would not have it 217 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: would not have bothered me to take him, and I'm 218 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: sure they're going to be really happy with him fifth 219 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: overall in Miami. So now everybody in the AFC's accept 220 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots as a young premium quarterback. Right, Miami has 221 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: two of the bills, say Josh Allen. Jets have Sam Darnold. 222 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if Stidham is in that category or not. 223 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: I've heard it. I heard it said last night. You know, 224 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: Ta has a long list of injuries, Steve, He's got 225 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: the you know, a couple of ankle injuries, broken ankles 226 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: over the last few years, and of course the major 227 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: hip injury last November requiring surgery. And I've heard it 228 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 1: said that with Ryan Fitzpatrick down there in Miami, they 229 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: can almost play this upcoming year with Toa as he 230 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: sort of gets a medical red shirt year as a rookie. 231 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: They can have him learn, maybe work him in a 232 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: little bit, but don't work him too hard, right, they 233 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: can make sure he's one hundred percent healthy when they 234 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: really need him to play. Do you know that I 235 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: totally agree with that plan. Go into the season, let 236 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: him watch Fitzpatrick, learn from him. You know, fitz is 237 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: going to be the ultimate team mate. He's gonna mentor Toa. 238 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna be a great asset to the to the team. 239 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: He'll be there for him he'll be able to We 240 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: know he can play a little. He'll give him a 241 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: chance to get his feet under him. Uh. Maybe they'll 242 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: be chances for TWA to get a couple of reps 243 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: in games here and there, whether they're either way down, 244 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: our way up or whatever or if fits, you know, 245 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: twists an ankle or something and come in two it 246 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: comes in. But you know, it's gonna be hard for 247 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: a kid like TWA as good as he is to 248 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: mentally be as advanced as Ryan Fitzpatrick is. It's gonna 249 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: be hard for him to come in and take over 250 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: and just earned the job away from even a guy 251 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: like Ryan Fitzpatrick who's a journeyman, because that's what Fitzpatrick's 252 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: strength is. So I think it's a great plan. Just 253 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: come in and let him compete, and don't be afraid 254 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: to start the season with Ryan Fitzpatrick and let him 255 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: go for even a handful of games or the whole season. 256 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Who cares. Just let him play and get everything else 257 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: put in place for when TWA takes over, much like 258 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:47,599 Speaker 1: they did in Kansas City with Mahomes and Alex Smith. Yeah, 259 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: so Ta is a dolphin and there was room. I mean, 260 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: our buddy Armando Saugero down there at the Miami Herald 261 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: was a big proponent of tanking. For twa they didn't 262 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: have to tank. They were competitive at times. Last year 263 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: of the Dolphins the only one five, but with the 264 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: fifth overall pick, they get to a Tago Viola And 265 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: I wonder how much of a wonder how much you know, 266 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: fan relations and selling tickets played into that Steve you know, 267 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: at the fifth overall pick. I know he's good. I 268 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: know he's good, and I know he's a valuable prospect, 269 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: but it was almost like the Dolphins sitting there at 270 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: five but two out there they were, yeah, we're gonna 271 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: take that guy because he'll sell some tickets for us. No, yeah, 272 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: what'd you think about people going back in history and 273 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: when they had a chance to get Drew Brees and 274 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: they failed him on his physical And now Drew Brees 275 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: has got a world championship and going to the Hall 276 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: of Fame, and they got Dante Culpepper. You know, I 277 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: mean that's and they've they've been spiraling sideways ever since. So, 278 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: I mean, if there were anybody left in the Dolphins 279 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: decision making group that made that decision, it'd be one thing. 280 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: But that's so long ago eating the others. Yeah, so 281 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: long ago. I don't know if I would get caught 282 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: up of that. Yeah, and they might have heard that 283 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: from their fan base, like you say. And I'm a 284 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: big proponent of if you're that high in the dreading, 285 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: don't overthink it. You know, the guys are high that 286 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: high on the everybody's board for a reason. Don't talk 287 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: yourself out of a great player because of minusia. Not 288 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: that you know, dislocated broken hip is minusha, But man, 289 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: oh man, the guy, you know, he's a human being. 290 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: He's gonna heal up, he's gonna rehab. Guys have done 291 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: it throughout history in the NFL. They've come back from 292 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: bad injuries. So yeah, give the kid a chance to play. 293 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: And I'm I'm i gotta say, yeah, it's a good thing. 294 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: I think the Dolphins did the right thing by not 295 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: talking themselves out of it. Yeah, it's a gutsy pick, 296 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: but an important one for them. Right after two goes 297 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: to Miami, Justin Herbert, quarterback from Oregon, goes to the 298 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Chargers. Back to back quarterbacks. Now, the Bills 299 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: played the Chargers in Buffalo this year. Of course they'll 300 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: get two in Buffalo as well. We don't know when yet. 301 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: The schedules schedule will be out by by May nine. 302 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: Three of the first six picks at quarterbacks. In many respects, 303 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: I feel like the Chargers, with the departure of Philip Rivers, 304 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: felt compelled to get a quarterback there at number six. 305 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: And we did talk with with Tom Talesco at the 306 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: combine about that. He wouldn't admit it, but don't you 307 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: think they were They almost had to get a quarterback. 308 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: And Herbert is a guy who stands up well, I 309 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: think as a sixth overall pick. Yeah, he's he's a big, 310 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: tall kid with a big arm. M. He's also his 311 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 1: uh you know, there's some questions that he might be 312 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,119 Speaker 1: a little bit too meek to be a pro quarterback. 313 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 1: You know, you step into an NFL quarter into an 314 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: NFL huddle, you're stepping into with a bunch of you know, 315 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: street fighters. You know those guys are in there. They're 316 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: they're big, and they're bad, and they're all confident, if 317 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: not arrogant and cocky. Uh, it takes. It's a tough crowd. 318 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: And to be a quarterback step in there and even 319 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: just to call a play, you got to have a 320 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: presence and somebody q you know, there's some people questioning 321 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: that about Justin Herbert. He didn't seem like he was 322 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: a guy who's gonna come in there and and demand 323 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: those guys turned their heads towards him and look at 324 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: him and listen to what he says. Uh. He put 325 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: that to rest a little bit of the Senior Bowl. 326 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: Not only did he play well, um, he gained some 327 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: respect from his peers and that that was it was 328 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: good to see and that and so I think that 329 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: put to rest some of the criticisms and he had 330 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: at Oregon. And good for him. He's uh, he was 331 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: mister congeniality in the draft run up process. I guess 332 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: he's got great you know. He was like yes, sir, no, 333 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: sir kind of guy. Um, and good for him, So 334 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: I we'll see. It's uh. He grew up with a 335 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: huge history in Oregon athletics with his with his uncles 336 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: and his dad and his brothers and his cousins. So 337 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: he was destined to be an athlete, and sure enough 338 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: he's a first round draft pick. It's one of Bill's 339 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: live John Murphy's team tasker. We're going through some of 340 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: the last night's first round. We will get to the 341 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: second round of what we hope the Bills too will 342 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: accomplish tonight. You can give us a call at any 343 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: point eight oh three h five fifty and toll free 344 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty to 345 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: talk about last night's first round, to talk about tonight's 346 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,479 Speaker 1: second and third rounds. There's a pick at number eight. 347 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: Arizona got the player Isaiah Simmons listed as a linebacker 348 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: from Clemson. It was interesting last night. Multi personnel guy, 349 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: a multi positional guy, they called him. I guess he's 350 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: a linebacker, but it was interesting. They had a stat 351 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 1: out there. Isaiah Simmons at Clemson played more than an 352 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: hundred snaps at outside linebacker, inside linebacker, cornerback, slot, corner safety. 353 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: I mean, he plays all over the place, and I 354 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: really Booger McFarland said something interesting last night. He says, 355 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: no matter where he plays, you really want him in 356 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: your front seven so he can have an impact on 357 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: every down. But he's gonna be interesting, I think, and 358 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: a really good player for the Arizona Cardinals. Yeah, his 359 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 1: speed and his size and his athleticism, and he's one 360 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: of those guys you could he could throw him in 361 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: at you know, at number one wide receiver too. You know, 362 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: he's one of those guys that threw him put him 363 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: on the other side of the ball. He's he's that 364 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 1: kind of athlete. It'll be fun to watch him develop 365 00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: and good for them, I Max. You'd think a head 366 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: coach like Cliff Kingsbury, who they kind of struggled, you know, 367 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: they didn't win very many games at the top of 368 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: the draft, you'd think and plus Kingsbury being an offensive guy, 369 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: wanted to come in and put his stamp on, and 370 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 1: he got Kyler Murray last year, and you think, while 371 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 1: he's gonna you know, make a splash and build a 372 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: team in his own image, which is an offensive team, 373 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: but then his draft pick goat Isaiah Simmons says a 374 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: lot about their discipline as and that they're ready to 375 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: build an entire team, not just to depend on one 376 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: guy's offensive philosophy to carry him to a championship. Moving 377 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: through the highlights of the first round, the Jets afc 378 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: East of Asian rival with their first pick eleventh. The 379 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: Jets got offensive tackle Metdee Beckton of Louisville, a guy 380 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: who failed his drug test at the Combine. But Daniel Jeremiah, 381 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: whose opinions I respected a great deal, immediately called him 382 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: the best offensive tackle in the draft. He was the 383 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: first offensive tackle chosen in the draft. And there was 384 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: a little run out offensive tackles there for a while. 385 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: But clearly, if you can improve the protection for Sam Darnold, 386 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: you're doing your offensive big favor. And with the athleticism 387 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: that Metti Becton did, a huge size, six seven, three 388 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty four pounds and the guy who can 389 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: just run all day, I think that's a really good 390 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 1: pick for the Jets at number eleven. They're seed. Yeah, 391 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: he's a huge guy. He's like that. He's listed at 392 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: sixty seven. There are some and I heard last night 393 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: you said he's taller than that. He's he's big. I mean, 394 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: he is a giant of a man. And he ran 395 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: Did you see his forty run at the Combine? Yah, 396 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: I was. It was impressive just to watch he ran 397 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: a five one, which is like, hey, you know, man, 398 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: but you should have seen him. It was he looked 399 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: athletic running it. And at six seven, three hundred and 400 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: sixty plus pounds. Are you kidding me? Where do they 401 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: find these guys? Mur Where did they come from? And 402 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: that's yeah. He played at Louisville, and some of the 403 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 1: highlights of him I liked a lot, not because of 404 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: course he was physically dominating a guy that big you 405 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: would expect it to be, but he also played with 406 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: a little streak of nasty in him, and I really 407 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: liked some of the things I saw from him, just 408 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: the way he enthusiastically blocked guys and it was It's 409 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: really something. He wasn't just out there taking up space. 410 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,719 Speaker 1: He was playing football, and that's it was nice. So 411 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: good for the Jets. McKay Beckton, who is I think 412 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: he's probably the biggest guy in the draft gonna and 413 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: you'll the Bills fans are gonna see him at left 414 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: tackle or right tackle for the Jets for a decade 415 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: decade and a half. Yeah. Right after Beckton wide receiver, 416 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: the first one went at number twelve, and it was 417 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: a bit of a surprise. Henry Ruggs, I think on 418 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 1: most lists was considered maybe third best wide receiver, but 419 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: of course it goes to Vegas as the number one 420 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: wide receiver. Off the board at number twelve, and there 421 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: were three wide receivers picked in six picks and a 422 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: total of six wide receivers in the first round. Henry 423 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: Ruggs has gone to the to Las Vegas to the Raiders. 424 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,719 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy has gone to Denver. CD Lamb goes to Dallas. 425 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: Pretty good pick up. Justin Jefferson goes to Minnesota and 426 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: the pick that would have been the Bills and the 427 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: Bills not acquired uh from Minnesota, stay Stefan Diggs, thank 428 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: you very much. So many names, and Brendan Ayak wide 429 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: receiver from Arizona State goes to the forty nine or 430 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: six wide receivers. But there are interesting as we kind 431 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: of move into we're gonna I'm gonna get a name 432 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: from you, a couple of names for you in a 433 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: few minutes, Steve. But there are more than a couple 434 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 1: of interesting wide receivers out there. And that's kind of 435 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: the way I'm leaning right now. What do you think? Yeah, 436 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: And I can see it too, and they may do it, 437 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: and there's a big We saw this when the Giants 438 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl. They and then when the Seattle 439 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: Seahawks won, They're Super Bowl They did it with a 440 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: dominant front four. Defensively, they got pressure fast on the 441 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: opposing quarterback consistently, and they did it fast, which meant 442 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: the ball had to come out fast, and with seven 443 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: guys in coverage, their defense just became dominating. This Seahawks 444 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: did it with Calais Campbell and that crew up there 445 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 1: in the legion of boom, and so did um so 446 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: did the other team I just mentioned I lost it, 447 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 1: while so did San Francisco. They got to the Super 448 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: Bowl doing the exact same thing, just a dominant front four. 449 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 1: And there's a big thought that when you draft, instead 450 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: of like, Okay, now, let's build the rest of our team, 451 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: take that dominant front four and make it more dominant. 452 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: You know. So, what are you thinking edge rush guying tonight? Well? Maybe, 453 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: or it could be the Bills. If they've got Stefan Diggs, 454 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,959 Speaker 1: they've got John Brown, they've got Cole Beasley. What are 455 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: they gonna do if Jerry Judy falls to fifty four? 456 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: You gotta grab him. Jerry Judy went last night to Denver. Yeah, 457 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 1: what are they? What are they gonna do with one 458 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: of these other the top you know wideouts is sitting 459 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: there Well, here's who's left.

Those would be the top guys. And 463 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: I think the Bills are gonna have their pick of many. 464 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: And maybe we'll talk about this when we return about 465 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: the second round.

I misspoke first segment. Andrew Thomas was the 508 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: first offensive tackle taking. The Giants got him with a 509 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: fourth overall pick that Georgia Meckey Beckham went to the 510 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: Jets way down about midway through the first round, the 511 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: Louisville tackle.

What would you do if you're the Bills 514 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: GM tonight rounds two and three? And what do you 515 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: think around one? A couple of phone calls here? We're 516 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: going to start with Ryan and Pittsburgh. Hello, Ryan, you're 517 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: on the air. Hey guys, So I guess to answer 518 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 1: both of your questions. I guess to put on my 519 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: you know, armchair GM hat. I'd love to see the 520 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: pig trevon day because if you can drop that load, 521 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 1: I just think, you know, having you know, getting another 522 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: corner would be great. But also just the storyline of 523 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: having the two big brothers would be great. Let me 524 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: just stop you for a second, and I understand that 525 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: Ryan is a storyline worth investing your first draft pick on, 526 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't think it is. 527 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: To the football guys. I don't think they would make 528 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: that decision based on the fact that the guy's brothers here. 529 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: Do you think it is worth it? I have a 530 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: good secondary quarterback, but as well they think you think, 531 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: you know, maybe motivated. I think just having those two 532 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: year would be awesome. That's just my okay. He is 533 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: a good corner. You're right about that. Well. And I'll 534 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: tell you this too, not for nothing, but he is 535 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: the top corner left on on the if you go 536 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 1: to NFL dot com, they're draft tracker, Treyvon Diggs is 537 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: the top corner left on the board, right behind Jeff 538 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: gladny C J Henderson and Jeff Okuda. Treyvon Diggs is 539 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: the next guy on the board. So he's a he's 540 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 1: a legit prospect. And if that's where they're leaning and 541 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: he's left on their board, they may well get him 542 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 1: just now. I don't care if his net last name 543 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: is Diggs or not. Um, he's he might be the 544 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: best corner on the board there, you know, left on 545 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: the board. And if you look at his uh scouting report, Um, 546 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: he's six one two oh five, he's perfect for the Bills. 547 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: I mean, the big corner he can scoot, he's got. 548 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: He came from a big, big time program in Alabama. Yes, 549 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 1: brother will be there. I mean you'll have that kind 550 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: of family atmosphere that will keep him you would think 551 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: would help him in his acclimation to the to the league. Yeah, 552 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: I'm all about that. If he's there, I doubt he'll 553 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: be there at fifty four, but I'm that's that's I'm 554 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: with you one hundred percent. In fact, Murph and I 555 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: are going to give our our you know, our projections. Uh, 556 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: he's one of mine. If he's on the board, I 557 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: think you gotta take him. I think it's a it's 558 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: a it's a no lose situation. Go ahead, Ryan, What 559 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: else did you want to say? Yeah? And the second 560 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: one was I wanted to hear your opinion. Um, you 561 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: know the Greener Packers jumping up to get Love. You know, 562 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 1: that's definitely something I wasn't expecting, especially with Rogers still 563 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 1: having four years left in his contract. So that's interesting 564 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: to see your opinion on that. It's an interesting move. Um, 565 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: it's certainly not a need pick for Green Bay, but 566 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: they must, you know, they they You gotta trust that 567 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: these guys know what they're doing. And with Matt Lafleur, 568 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: you know, the head coach there making a lot of 569 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: these calls, you gotta believe that he loves Jordan Love, 570 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,239 Speaker 1: you know. But it was an interesting movement that they 571 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: have no need at that position. Certainly, it's a move 572 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: for the future, and I don't know how. I don't 573 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: know how well they're gonna handle i't know how Aaron 574 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: Rodgers will handle it. What do you think, Steve all Right, 575 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 1: that's the most shocking move of the first round for me, 576 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: no doubt. It's it's no doubt. I had no inkling 577 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: that they would do that. M Jordan Love is a project. 578 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: It's if you're gonna bring a guy in for a project, 579 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: that might be the perfect place to do it. Aaron 580 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: Rodgers has been in the league a long time, He's 581 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: not gonna play forever. Jordan Love is a project quarterback. 582 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: He's got all the physical tools, but he needs a 583 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: lot of work in a lot of areas. Um, it's 584 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: a lot to ask of Aaron Rodgers. I don't know 585 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: if Aaron Rodgers the kind of guy who would do that, 586 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: although he can look back on his own career and 587 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: maybe want to do it better than Brett Farve did 588 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: it for him. Uh, their notorious Brett Farve and Aaron 589 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: Rodgers are did not become close buddies when Aaron when 590 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers was backing him up, maybe Aaron Rodgers would 591 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: be committed to doing a better than that, But I 592 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: was shocked by that move. Thanks for your calling. Let's 593 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: go to Mike in Connecticut. Hello, Mike, you're on the air. Hey, 594 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: Steve John, how are you doing good? Real good? I'm 595 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,479 Speaker 1: hoping Brandon Bean's on the phone right now. Colin, you 596 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: know the thirty third pick and trying to trade up 597 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: because I really think we should go after te Higgins. 598 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm actually surprised he's still on the board, and I 599 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: think we need a big body, wide receiver on the outside. 600 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: I know we got Stefan Diggs, but he as much 601 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: as a great player as he is, he's not a 602 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: big receiver, you know those you know six three six 603 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: four type of big receivers. And I think te Higgins 604 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: would be a Greek addition to the Bill. So I 605 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: really hope a Brandon Bean is trying to wheel and 606 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: deal right now. If we speak so tonight, we will 607 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: see that. As you know, trade has been made in 608 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: the Bills. Take te Higgins, Like, I think you need 609 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: a big receiver, they don't have one. What do you 610 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: think they need one? Red zone? Well, because why can't 611 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: you use a tight end down there? You can. I'd 612 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,080 Speaker 1: rather have a receiver. Why I think they can get 613 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: open easier than a tight end. Well, it's only the 614 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: small field in the red zone. There's no place to 615 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: get open. I would rather have a big, athletic wide 616 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: receiver than a tight end almost any day, unless he's 617 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: a special tight end. Okay, but so, okay, go ahead, Mike. 618 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I think we just need that big, 619 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, wide receiver for those fifty fifty jump balls, 620 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: for you know, red zone threats. Um you know that 621 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: a receiver that the man's double coverage that might be 622 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: able to open up digs or you know, Beasley or Brown. 623 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: And I think the builds are lacking that. I mean 624 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: even our coats at all of our receivers are like 625 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: the Smurfs. Smurfs big body receiver. Thanks Mike, there's another 626 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: big body in there. But our next gular wants to 627 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: bring him up. Andrew and Rochester is gone. I'll bring 628 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: him up. Chase Claypool, he's there. He's a little bit 629 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: bigger than t Higgins. He is a little bit faster 630 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: with a better forty time. He's six four point three 631 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: and te Higgins six three and a half, so he's 632 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: like the bigger. He's two hundred and thirty eight pounds. 633 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: Te Higgins is two hundred sixteen pounds. Look, that's not 634 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: a crying need wide receiver. And I'm they've got their 635 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: top three. I don't expect whether it's T Higgins or 636 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool or Denzel Mims. I don't expect if the 637 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: Bills get a receiver in this draft problem. If they 638 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: got one tonight, I don't expect him to get significant 639 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: playing time this year. But there's nothing wrong with stockpiling 640 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: guys for the future, especially with two guys Beasley and 641 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: uh and John John Brown approaching thirty one years old. Well, 642 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't think too. I'll say this about Chase Claypool 643 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 1: and T Higgins, the football guys I've listened to and 644 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: read about. T Higgins is a much better pro spot 645 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: prospect at wide receiver than Chase Claypool's a. He's a 646 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: He's a better wide receiver than Chase Claypool. You even 647 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: heard people talking about Chase Claypool moving inside to make 648 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: play tight end. He's that big. Now, he didn't run well, 649 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: But I'll say this, te Higgins has been at the 650 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: top of the wide receiver conversation since we started talking 651 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: about this class. So if te Higgins is there and 652 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool are there, in my opinion, there's no contest. 653 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: Te Higgins is the guy. I disagree, but we'll see. 654 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: I could I could be wrong. Let's take another call here. 655 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: Let'll go to Paul in Toronto. Hello Paul, and you're 656 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: on the air.

Let us know what you think. Who should 659 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: the Bills go after tonight? Who should they wind up with, 660 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: and Steve, it's time. Now let's hear your two We 661 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: we talked about it yesterday. Wech even give two names 662 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: to look for tonight that we hope and I think 663 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: I can speak for you here. We don't really have 664 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: any inside information, but two people we hope the Bills 665 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: wind up with by the time they're done with the 666 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: third round to leag go first, Steve, what do you think? 667 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: All right, I'll go first, and I'll go with the 668 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: guy that we were just talking about. I'll go with 669 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: treyvon Diggs. If he's there. I think it's it's a 670 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: perfect fit. The way he plays corner, the size that 671 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 1: he brings to this position, the way he on the 672 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: prospect rankings. In his he is slated and ranked high 673 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: enough by most rating services that he's expected to be 674 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 1: a starter in the NFL. At corn that's big, and 675 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: you put him, you plug him in across from Tredevious 676 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,839 Speaker 1: White in your defense becomes a top five defense again, 677 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: or remains a top five defense, maybe a top three, 678 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,959 Speaker 1: maybe number one in the league. He changed his things 679 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: for you. That's the guy. That's one guy I would want. 680 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: The other one would be Cameron Danceler, who is a 681 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: little further down on the list from Mississippi State. He's 682 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 1: also a corner but he's six two and he's pretty slim. 683 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: He's one hundred and eighty eight pounds, but he's also 684 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: fast enough to get it going. And I said, both 685 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,399 Speaker 1: those guys are the two guys I would say at 686 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: that at cornerback, Um, and that's that's who I think 687 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna get now. I also, you know, I also 688 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: have some names at the edge, rusher and run we 689 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: get two and those we get too. And I think 690 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 1: Treybon Diggs is the guy I probably would probably if 691 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: I was twisted to say who if he was there 692 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: and everybody else is there, that's the guy for me. 693 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 1: Traybon Diggs is not likely to be there at fifty four, right, 694 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: you'd have to make I think a pretty soon. Then 695 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: we can move up in the second round and get 696 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: Treybon Diggs. No, he's a first round talent. They're still 697 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 1: on the board, Murphy, I'm picking him, Okay, I'm not 698 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: talking about I mean there's some guys too. There's some 699 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 1: other guys like DeAndre Swith and Jonathan Taylor at first 700 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: round talents and there are still on the board at 701 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: running running backs. Yeah, let me say this. I do 702 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: think that I've said it for over a week now. 703 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: I think the Bills are gonna move up. I think 704 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: they are, and I rechecked the math last night. For 705 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: them to move up into the top thirty five and 706 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: right now there were fifty four. So to move up 707 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: twenty spots, they would require, you know, flipping their second 708 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: round or obviously giving up their third round in their 709 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: fourth round pick for then they move up in the 710 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: top forty, which would be a move of what fourteen 711 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: spots to get in the top forty, you know, so 712 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: fifteen sixteen, seventeen spots, they'd have to get flipped their 713 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: second round or give up a third round. Either move 714 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: his viable, I think for the right guy, but with 715 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: whose left I don't know if if they're going to 716 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: need to get up to the top thirty five. And 717 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: so my two players, my two players, Number one is 718 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool, and they might not have to make him 719 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: move at all to get him at fifty four. I've 720 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 1: seen he's a first round talent, I believe, but I 721 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: think he might be available there at fifty four. Believe 722 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: it or not. Based on what you see and based 723 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: on the other receivers around, I think they might be 724 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 1: able to sit there and wait till fifty four. They 725 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: may not want to, but I have a feeling that 726 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool's name will be called by the Bills tonight. 727 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 1: And the other one is a corner I agree with 728 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 1: that there's some good corners left. One of them Bryce 729 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: Hall of Virginia, good size, six one, two hundred two pounds, 730 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 1: played in Virginia's started for four years. I got hurt 731 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,240 Speaker 1: than ankle injury last year. But I do think Bryce 732 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: Hall is a guy that maybe would require a bit 733 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,959 Speaker 1: of a move up. And look, there's gonna be plenty 734 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: of good players. Do they want to move up? Do 735 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: they want to give up a third rounder? They're gonna 736 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: have to go up a third rounder to move and 737 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,760 Speaker 1: their third rounder is worth something. But those are my two, 738 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: the cornerback Bryce Hall, and of course the wide receiver 739 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool. And the thing about Bryce Hall, Murph is 740 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: it's interesting because now it becomes gamesmanship because Bryce Hall, 741 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: You're right, he had an he had an injury. He 742 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: didn't do the combine. He has no numbers from the 743 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: combine that are available, so and you know, no pro 744 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: days and stuff. So he's kind of a question mark. 745 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: So some teams may back shy away from him, and 746 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: he may be available just because of those question marks. 747 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: Now if you're if you're wanting to take it at 748 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: face value and look at his film and go with that. 749 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: He's the right size, he played at the right level 750 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: um of you know, he played at Virginia, so they 751 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: played some quality opponents and he had film to watch. 752 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,879 Speaker 1: He could be there at fifty four even though he's 753 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 1: a talent, because they're some question marks about his ankle 754 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: and some question marks in the fact that I haven't 755 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 1: been able to look at him because he was a 756 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: recovering from the injury. So that's to me, Bryce Hall's 757 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: a guy that you may not have to make a 758 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: move to get if you're willing to live with the 759 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 1: question marks for the time being. One of the callers 760 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: said a moment ago, if I were a Brandon Bean, 761 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: I would get on the phone. Believe me. What is 762 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: it almost one o'clock this afternoon. That guy's been living 763 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: on the phone, I'm sure since last night, and I'm 764 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: sure he's just checking things. What's going on asking everybody 765 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: what's going on. I still think they're gonna move up. 766 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 1: Let's take the call here from Erie, Pennsylvania Dan on 767 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: the line from Erie, Dan, what do you got, hey, guys? 768 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: You know you and talking about a good, tall, possession 769 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 1: wide receiver and in the red zone. I think they've 770 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: already got one in Duke Williams. I don't know why 771 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: they don't give him more playing time. And the other 772 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: thing I was wondering about, when do you guys think 773 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 1: they may address running back? Let's see you get in 774 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: on this too. Duke Williams had a whole year to 775 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: prove that he belonged on the field last year, and 776 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: not until the very end of the year did he 777 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: get a chance. So that's just something to me. I'm 778 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: not giving up on him. But you know, they had 779 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 1: him in practice for the entire season and never used 780 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: him till the last few weeks of the year. I 781 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: don't think I think his first game was right at 782 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: the end of the year, so he had He got 783 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,399 Speaker 1: in for the Tennessee game earlier in the year, caught 784 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: the winning touchdown past and he disappeared until the last 785 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: game of the regular season. In the playoff game, and 786 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: in the playoff game, the Texans forced the Bills to 787 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: target him ten times. They took away John Brown, they 788 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: took away Cole Beasley. They said, you know it was 789 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: the simple fact was that Texans said, listen, if if 790 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 1: you can beat us with Duke Williams, go ahead. And 791 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: then and Josh Allen saw it and went to him 792 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: ten times. He only caught five of those balls. A 793 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: couple of them were really good catches. A couple of 794 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: them you wish you would have caught. So you're right, Murph, 795 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: For you and me and the rest of us sitting 796 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,800 Speaker 1: out here, there are still question marks about Duke Williams. 797 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 1: Why did it take him so long to get on 798 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: the field? Was last season at the end of the year, 799 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: the last two games that week seventeen, in the playoff game, 800 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 1: when all the chips were on the table, Duke Williams 801 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 1: was in the game the whole game. Does that tell 802 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: us something about Duke going forward? Maybe says something I think, 803 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 1: maybe I think they like him. And you know, he 804 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,520 Speaker 1: hung in there and got active just before the Tennessee 805 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: game and he was on the roster the rest of 806 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: the season. He admittedly had a lot to learn and 807 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,919 Speaker 1: they know. But let's face, they know more about Duke 808 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: Williams than they know about any of these other drafters 809 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: draftees that they're drafting. The caller had a question about 810 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: when do they start thinking about picking a running back. 811 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: What do you think, Steve, they're thinking about it right now. 812 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,080 Speaker 1: I would imagine with the guys on the board now, 813 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:47,839 Speaker 1: they're probably in the mix, depending on what receivers are there, 814 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 1: edge rushers and corners, and also that running back. If 815 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 1: I think it will come down to the best player 816 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 1: who they think will have the best pro career at 817 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: any one of those positions, whoever's there at fifty four, 818 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: at least as it stands now, that's who they're gonna take, 819 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 1: unless they think there's a guy who can make a 820 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: difference for this football team. And like we said, Murphy, 821 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: and then they jump up to make what number forty 822 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: forty two to get him, jump up ten spots, twelve 823 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 1: spots to get him. Then if that happens, then all 824 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: bets are off. I don't know who that will be. 825 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 1: They are I'm sure considering the running backs, because only 826 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: one was drafted last night. I hope they don't draft 827 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: one before the fourth round at the earliest, but you 828 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 1: know they might might have another idea.

What 838 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,479 Speaker 1: do you think they should do with those two pits? 839 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,839 Speaker 1: That's what we're talking to fans about today. Eighth three 840 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 1: five fifty, toll free one eight eight eight five fifty 841 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 1: two five fifty and around the line from his cell phone, 842 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: go a hand Andrew on the air, Hi, I was 843 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: calling earlier, talk about Chase Claypool. I heard you already 844 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: cover that, and but I want to say I do 845 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,760 Speaker 1: trust Brandon being and then he'll take a great value 846 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: with whatever position he goes for. But with that being said, 847 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: the second and third round round. Wide receivers is where 848 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 1: a lot of the great value is. So I really 849 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: do hope they grab a receiver in the second or 850 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: third round. And I mean names you'd like to see there. 851 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: Andrew Chase Claypool was my guy. He was my guy. 852 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: I thought he'd be a great compliment to Steffon Diggs 853 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: and John Brown. And also I was hoping they do 854 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 1: not trade up because I again the value in the second, 855 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: third round. I did not want to lose that third 856 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,879 Speaker 1: round pick. And then another thing, I do not want 857 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: them to take a running back because I think that 858 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: would hamper Devin Singletary's um development. Really, and I didn't 859 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: I mean beyond the fourth or fifth round to compliment 860 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 1: that would be fine with me, But I'm with you, 861 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: I do not want them to take one early. What 862 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 1: if they get a guy that's what if they get 863 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 1: a guy that's better than Devin Singletary, well then I mean, 864 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: I guess you take it. But I'm hoping they'll get 865 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: Chase Claypo. I hope that's where the value falls. But 866 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: as you said, if they get an opportunity, I'm not 867 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 1: going to be opposed to an advancement in any position. Yeah, 868 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 1: I agree with you about trusting Brandon Bean. I think 869 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 1: he's the ace in the hole that the Bills, and 870 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,359 Speaker 1: they're most of their fans understand that. But Steve, which 871 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 1: are though? Like the top running backs available? Who who 872 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:40,880 Speaker 1: would you be ready to say is better than right 873 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:48,280 Speaker 1: now than? Uh Singletary, Dobbin, Swift, Taylor? Probably yeah? All three? Yeah? Yeah, 874 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,839 Speaker 1: I mean if they're I don't know, Yeah, I think 875 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:56,839 Speaker 1: they're all home run hitters where Devin is not. But um, 876 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 1: you'd have to The one I kind of like is 877 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor out of us coin. He's the guy that 878 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: carried the ball sixty gazillion times at Wisconsin and had 879 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: sixty trillion yards in his career. He ran a four 880 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: to three nine forty. I mean, the guy is really 881 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: fast and he weighs two hundred and twenty six pounds. 882 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: To me, yeah, he's he's a physical force. Uh that's 883 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 1: different than Devon is now, Devin's you know, he's two 884 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: two hundred, but you know, Devin's five to seven and 885 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: he's got elite vision. He's different. So I think a 886 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: guy like Jonathan Taylor, if he's there, that's he's a 887 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: game changer. I think he's a different kind of back 888 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: and he's a guy that can carry it. As you've 889 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: seen in Wisconsin. He carries it a bunch and he's 890 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,359 Speaker 1: used to it. I mean, there are some guys in 891 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: this draft that are better than Devin. Yeah, I just 892 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 1: don't know if you want to invest draft capital on 893 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,280 Speaker 1: a position which is kind of almost out of vogue, 894 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, right, And that's the thing. It's 895 00:44:56,120 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: a balance between you get a guy who's really really good, 896 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, what's that? But can you get 897 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: a guy that's not really really good, only really good 898 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 1: at the fourth round, right, and you get a really 899 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: good wide receiver in the second round? That kind of thing, 900 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: How long do you wait? You know? That's the balance. 901 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: Are you going to get more out of a te 902 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 1: Higgins than you are a Jonathan Taylor in your offense? 903 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: And I don't know that's a good questions. That's where 904 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 1: Jed Brandon Bean has got to make that call, and 905 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 1: so does Sean McDermott and the position coaches. But that's 906 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: what you're looking at. You're looking at two guys that 907 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,919 Speaker 1: can really play. Which one will help your offense the most? 908 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna take a break when we want 909 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,960 Speaker 1: to continue with your phone calls. But when we come back, 910 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,360 Speaker 1: we're going to talk with Great Cosell from NFL Matchup 911 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 1: on ESPN.

We're finally getting ready to jump into 966 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 1: the draft? What happened last night? Either Steve and I watched, 967 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,319 Speaker 1: you know, we watched all of it. It was oh, 968 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 1: there was a draft last night. Oh I'm glad you 969 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:43,359 Speaker 1: guys told me. You know, I gotta tell you, Murf, 970 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: maybe you feel the same way because you know we're 971 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: older guys. Yeah. I kind of like the fact that 972 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 1: I was teared down a little bit. I did too, 973 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 1: said Stevens.

I didn't miss that at all. 976 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: Last Now, I kind of I don't know. I guess 977 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: I'm aging myself here, but I kind of enjoyed it. 978 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 1: I did too. You know what would make it better? Greg? 979 00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,440 Speaker 1: The only thing that I missed was the fact that 980 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: the draft picks could only have like four or five people, 981 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 1: four or five members of their family, and usually you'd 982 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: have thirty or fifty. Some of these guys have fifty 983 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: people in their house because they're all you know, all 984 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: those people help them get there. And I think the 985 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: only thing that we missed was the jumping up and 986 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 1: down by the people around the draft pick that are 987 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 1: so happy for the kid that he made it, and 988 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 1: he's so happy. So it was really the player reactions 989 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 1: were much more subdued last night than I think we're 990 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 1: used to because it's family and friends that are the 991 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: most happy for the kid, and I think that's the 992 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 1: one thing we missed. Yeah, I kind of actually enjoyed 993 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: two seeing whether it was the coach or the GM 994 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 1: seeing you know, his kids right around there. I thought 995 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,839 Speaker 1: that was pretty cool. You know, it just it was, 996 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 1: as my wife said, I was the draft unplugged, and 997 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: it was kind of nice. It was pretty cools. Our guest, Greg, 998 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 1: we want to do a deep dive into the prospects 999 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 1: selected last night with you and coming up tonight as 1000 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,759 Speaker 1: well rounds two and three. But I do want to 1001 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: ask you this, was there anything about last night's draft 1002 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 1: that you think could be explained by just the different 1003 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 1: circumstances this year? I mean, look, the quarterbacks went scheduled, 1004 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 1: there were only three trades made in the first round. 1005 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: There were all big school people that went in the 1006 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 1: first round. Could any of this be explained by the 1007 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 1: different circumstances because of the quarantine and the virus the spring. 1008 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any way to know that 1009 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,840 Speaker 1: for sure, Murph, but I think the big school element. 1010 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: And again I don't have previous draft numbers in front 1011 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,320 Speaker 1: of me, and I don't necessarily look at that stuff. 1012 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,359 Speaker 1: If I worked for a team, I would certainly look 1013 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: at that stuff. But I guess there were fifteen players 1014 00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 1: I think chosen from the SEC something like that. You know, 1015 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,280 Speaker 1: I think sixteen I had been done more. People tend 1016 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: to believe that if a player plays in a Power 1017 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 1: five school, and certainly the SEC, which is universally regarded 1018 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 1: it was the best conference in the country, then you 1019 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,479 Speaker 1: have a chance to be a better player in the league. 1020 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 1: So again I don't have numbers in front of me, 1021 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 1: but it wouldn't surprise me if that did factor in 1022 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:12,240 Speaker 1: a bit, since you had to rely more on tape 1023 00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: than anything else this year. Yeah. In the run up 1024 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 1: to the draft, obviously the teams with the one of 1025 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 1: the teams that was sitting pretty was the Miami Dolphins. 1026 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: We had all kinds of speculation, maybe they'd trade some 1027 00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 1: of the picks, they do some things to get higher 1028 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: in the top five. Whatever was thought. They ended up 1029 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: picking all three of their picks. They got a quarterback 1030 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 1: two attack of Iloa from Alabama, they got the offensive 1031 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 1: tackle from Louisville, and they got a corner as well. 1032 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: What do you think about the Miami Dolphins so far 1033 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 1: using all those picks and getting value for them. Well, 1034 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 1: I think they did well because I think they drafted 1035 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 1: positions of need with good prospects. I think Ta is 1036 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 1: going to be a good pro. Maybe I'm not quite 1037 00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 1: in the category that he's generational. I don't see that. 1038 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 1: I think he's and we've talked about this. I think 1039 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,799 Speaker 1: he's very system based, and I think that they'll understand that, 1040 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 1: very timing, rhythm based, really quick feed on his drop, 1041 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 1: quick set up, quick delivery, really accurate in the short 1042 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: intermediate areas, really good in the RPO game and the 1043 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: play action game. You know. I think he has clear, 1044 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 1: clear strengths. And then they drafted the left tackle from 1045 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 1: usc correct, Austin Jackson, who I really like a lot. 1046 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: He's a younger kid, which means there's a lot of growth, 1047 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 1: but he's really really athletic, really good feet. Probably needs 1048 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 1: to get a little bit stronger, but I thought he 1049 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,800 Speaker 1: was efficient both as a run blocker, and the past 1050 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: protection the traits really show up and then and this 1051 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: is where I think you rely on tape and conference. 1052 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: They drafted the corner from Auburn. Noah Iggy is what 1053 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: we're going to call him for our purposes, Noah Iggy, 1054 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:56,600 Speaker 1: and I really think he's another ascending type player. And 1055 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 1: I made a note when I evaluated him that I 1056 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: thought that he had all the traits to be a 1057 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 1: slot corner and I think that's the way they will 1058 00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 1: use him because they have Xavier Howard and they have 1059 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 1: Byron Jones now on the outside, So I think what 1060 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 1: they'll do is they'll play Noah Iggy in the slot. 1061 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,799 Speaker 1: Although I'll tell you what with Ryan Flores coming from 1062 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 1: New England, where Bill Belichick would do different things depending 1063 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,720 Speaker 1: on opponents. There could be games where Byron Jones matches 1064 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: up to a tight end man to man because he's 1065 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 1: done that in his career as a safety, and you 1066 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: could see someone like Noa Iggy playing outside. But I 1067 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 1: think he has the ability to play both inside and 1068 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: outside and he's a tough, competitive, highly athletic kid. It's 1069 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 1: interesting story serging too, because you talk about the afcast, 1070 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 1: you got the Miami Dolphins who were neck deep in 1071 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,439 Speaker 1: first round draft picks, the Jets getting McKay Beckton, who's 1072 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 1: one of the top tackle prospects, and then you've got 1073 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 1: the Bills out of the first round and the Patriots 1074 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 1: trading out of the first round. What do you make 1075 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: of that for where all those teams set and how 1076 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 1: it affects the you know, the division. The Patriots and 1077 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 1: the Bills outside the first round and the Jets and 1078 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 1: the Dolphins getting some pretty good players up there. Well, 1079 00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 1: I think you're dealing with teams that are needy. I mean, 1080 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,399 Speaker 1: the Jets obviously drafted McKay Beckton with the eleventh thick. 1081 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: They clearly needed offensive line help. You know, obviously the 1082 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: Dolphins and they they certainly won more games last year 1083 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,120 Speaker 1: than many expected. I thought that they were a really 1084 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: well coached team, and now they're looking to improve their 1085 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: talent level. Obviously it starts at quarterback. We know Bill 1086 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:34,279 Speaker 1: Belichick is always a trader in the draft, so we'll 1087 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 1: see what they do. Hey, for all we know he 1088 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: could make more trades. I get Buffalo has fifty four 1089 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: and eighty six tonight, is that correct? That's right? Yeah? Now, 1090 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: who knows what Sean and Brandon Beanell do you know? 1091 00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 1: So we don't know the answer to that. I mean, 1092 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 1: obviously they didn't tell you who they're taking or what 1093 00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,440 Speaker 1: they're going to do, so you know, we don't know 1094 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 1: what's going to happen at fifty four and eighty six. 1095 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 1: Teams sometimes see a guy they really want. Look look 1096 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: at what the Niners did. They traded up to twenty 1097 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 1: five because they obviously clearly wanted Brandon Ayuk. So you 1098 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 1: don't know. You don't know if Buffalo has someone that 1099 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:08,759 Speaker 1: all of a sudden it gets to forty nine and 1100 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 1: there's someone they really really want, they decide we have 1101 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: to go get him, or you never know. But you know, 1102 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:18,279 Speaker 1: I think Buffalo is a very solid team. Obviously every 1103 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: team can improve. They're certainly counting on Josh Allen to 1104 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 1: continue to take steps forward and become a dominant NFL quarterback, 1105 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 1: and that always changes everything when your quarterback is someone 1106 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: you can kind of lean on any given week. But 1107 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,160 Speaker 1: they're a team that has certainly the areas they want 1108 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 1: to improve, but probably not a ton of gaping holes. 1109 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,040 Speaker 1: We're lying on the line with Greg Costal, Executive producer analyst, 1110 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:48,240 Speaker 1: NFL matchup on ESPN. Justin Herbert went to the Chargers 1111 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 1: right after Tua did to the Dolphins. I wonder what 1112 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,360 Speaker 1: kind of evaluation you had on Justin Herbert. What do 1113 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,280 Speaker 1: you think of that pick? Right? Yeah, Herbert's a fascinating 1114 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,800 Speaker 1: guy because he's what we call very toolsy. He's big, 1115 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,839 Speaker 1: he's athletic, He's got a really strong arm. He can 1116 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 1: move around, although I don't think he moves within the 1117 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 1: pocket particularly well, but he certainly is an athletic kid. 1118 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: I remember standing next to him on the floor of 1119 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium at the combine and just thinking, Wow, 1120 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,839 Speaker 1: this kid just looks the part and then the ball 1121 00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,400 Speaker 1: came out so easily. But a lot of the nuances 1122 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 1: of the position he needs work on. He's not a 1123 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 1: true anticipation thrower. He tends to be what I call 1124 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: a see it throw a quarterback. He has to wait 1125 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: a little bit. He's not really aggressive in terms of anticipation. 1126 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,880 Speaker 1: I think in the NFL he needs to learn to 1127 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:39,319 Speaker 1: be a little quicker in that area. That can he 1128 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,879 Speaker 1: be No one knows the answer to that, But when 1129 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,880 Speaker 1: you look at his traits along with his size, you 1130 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,440 Speaker 1: think that, hey, this guy I can make him a 1131 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 1: big time quarterback. And I think I've told you guys 1132 00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 1: this before. I kind of see him coming out in 1133 00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,319 Speaker 1: much the same way I saw Josh Allen coming out 1134 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 1: of Wyoming. And we know that Josh Allen started his 1135 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 1: rookie year, had ups and downs, obviously played a full 1136 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:05,879 Speaker 1: season last year, had more ups than downs, and looks 1137 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 1: like he'll be a really solid player. And hopefully for 1138 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 1: the Bill is a great player. So hopefully Justin Herbert, 1139 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 1: for the benefit of the Chargers in the league, can 1140 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: follow the same kind of path. One of the most 1141 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 1: surprising things Greg that happened during the first round was 1142 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers trading. That was a trading up 1143 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 1: to get Jordan Love and nobody telling Aaron Rodgers about it. 1144 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:34,439 Speaker 1: Javu all over again twelve years later or eight years later. 1145 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: What do you make of that? Well, I can only 1146 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 1: tell you what the tape shows and what I know 1147 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 1: about Matton Lafloor. Matt Lafloor's background is Kyle Shanahan Sean McVeigh. 1148 00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:48,400 Speaker 1: So his background is timing, rhythm pass game, that the 1149 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: offense is an efficient offense, and that plays outside of 1150 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: structure are rare, but that's not the way we want 1151 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 1: to play football. Now, Aaron Rodgers, when you watch the tape, 1152 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: no one questioned the ability as much ability as any 1153 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: quarterback we've seen, you know, since I've been watching football, 1154 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 1: and that's a long time. But I think that Aaron 1155 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 1: Rodgers over the last number of years has become a 1156 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 1: very much of an unstructured player, and he leaves a 1157 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 1: lot of the structured plays on the field by not 1158 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 1: throwing the ball. Now, I'm not going to sit here 1159 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 1: because I haven't discussed this with Matt Lafloor, but I'm 1160 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and tell him at Floor doesn't 1161 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 1: like that. But I know the way he thinks about offense. 1162 00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:29,880 Speaker 1: So I think they're looking at Rogers. Age think they're 1163 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 1: looking at the way they want to play offense, and 1164 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,280 Speaker 1: they're thinking it's time to get his replacement. Now Rogers 1165 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 1: is I don't think he's going to be traded, you know, 1166 00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,240 Speaker 1: so he's going to be the quarterback. But I think 1167 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 1: it's a sign that Rogers, given his age and what 1168 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 1: we just talked about, is not going to be certainly 1169 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 1: their long term quarterback. I don't think he's going to 1170 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 1: play three four more years in Green Bay. We're with 1171 00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 1: Greg co Sal, executive producer analyst of NFL Matchup, on 1172 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: the ESPN Senior producer NFL Film Age Pick. Last night. 1173 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,919 Speaker 1: I've always I've been by Isaiah Simmons, the defensive player 1174 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: from Clemton for a while. Greg and I heard Booger 1175 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 1: McFarland say something I thought was pretty astute last night. 1176 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 1: He said, you know, you can play a variety of positions, 1177 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 1: but you really want him in your front seven. You 1178 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: want him active and involved on every play. From what 1179 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 1: you've seen of Isaiah Simmons on tape, what you know 1180 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: of him, Is that an accurate assessment of how the 1181 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,760 Speaker 1: Cardinals might use him. I would somewhat disagree with that. 1182 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 1: I understand the reasoning because he's super athletic, but I 1183 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 1: don't think he's very physical. I think that's the part 1184 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: of his game that he's not best at. I think 1185 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: he's a space player. Now, can you play him in 1186 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 1: space as a linebacker? To some degree, you probably can, 1187 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: depending on how you structure your front, but I saw 1188 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 1: him more as a safety. He has the size of 1189 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: a linebacker, but the playing style and movement of his safety, 1190 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 1: so I'm not sure how Arizona is going to use him. 1191 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 1: The key part to his game is when you play 1192 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 1: your sub defense. So if you play your sub defense 1193 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 1: seventy seventy five percent of the time, which a lot 1194 01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 1: of teams do, then he becomes that movable chess piece 1195 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 1: that depending on the opponent and a given week, and 1196 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 1: do a lot of different things for you. So that's 1197 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 1: kind of the way I see Simmons. I don't think 1198 01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 1: he's at his best where the bodies are. I think 1199 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:20,760 Speaker 1: he's much better away from the bodies. And if you're 1200 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: not going to play him, he's a twin. He's like 1201 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:24,880 Speaker 1: the old tweener. He's now the new tweener. Used to 1202 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 1: be a guy whether he's a linebacker or a defensive lineman. 1203 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 1: Does he played with his hand on the ground or 1204 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 1: does he play with his hand off the ground? Right? Right? 1205 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 1: And for me, Isaiah Simmons is now the modern day twinner. 1206 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:37,480 Speaker 1: Does he play in the back end of your defense 1207 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 1: or does he play in the front end of your defense? 1208 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 1: And you're telling me, and I kind of agree with you. 1209 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 1: He's not a guy who's going to take on a 1210 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: pulling guard, but he will run the play down from behind. 1211 01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,919 Speaker 1: No that's exactly right. And again now you get into 1212 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 1: you know, people throw out the platitude that, well, it's 1213 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,000 Speaker 1: a passing league, and that's fine. I'm not going to 1214 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,400 Speaker 1: disagree with that. But there are a lot of teams 1215 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,280 Speaker 1: that like to run the ball. Asked, your full backs 1216 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: were used more than they were in many years. So 1217 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: it depends on who you're playing, who the opponent is. 1218 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:07,760 Speaker 1: He's with Arizona, correct. Okay, so they're going to play 1219 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers twice. They play with us check 1220 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 1: forty five of the snaps. He's going to play the 1221 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 1: Seahawks twice. They're a running football team with Chris Carson. 1222 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:17,880 Speaker 1: They line up and they pound the football. They played 1223 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,000 Speaker 1: with six offensive linemen about twenty percent of their snaps 1224 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 1: last year. You know, the Rams. We'll see what the 1225 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: Rams are this year. They've sort of changed up a bit, 1226 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 1: getting rid of Brandon Cooks. Maybe they play with more 1227 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 1: two tight ends. So the point is, you know, I'm 1228 01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 1: not sure Simmons is a box player taking on blocks 1229 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 1: and shedding blocks. I don't know if that's his game. 1230 01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:41,919 Speaker 1: I don't think the tape shows that that's his game. 1231 01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 1: Greg co sal is with US from ESPN NFL matchup. 1232 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about tonight, Greg, and let's start 1233 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 1: with round two for an overview. Which position group do 1234 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 1: you think as the most depth available and maybe the 1235 01:01:56,120 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: most leftover unselected potential first rounders to go tonight in 1236 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,320 Speaker 1: rounds two and three? Which position group is strongest tonight? Well, 1237 01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:05,960 Speaker 1: let's look at offense. I think there's a lot of 1238 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 1: good backs, and I still think there's a lot of 1239 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:12,360 Speaker 1: good receivers left now. I would guess that the Bills 1240 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:15,919 Speaker 1: are not necessarily in the receiver market right now. I'm 1241 01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: not sure what they're feeling is about their backs. You know, 1242 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 1: we don't have an off season, so you don't really know. 1243 01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: We don't get to hear the coaches talk as much 1244 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 1: as we do in a normal year. I don't know 1245 01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 1: how they see Singletary. I think they see him as 1246 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 1: a good player. I don't know if they see him 1247 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: as a guy on a weekly basis that you're going 1248 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:35,480 Speaker 1: to give the ball to eighteen nineteen times a game. 1249 01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 1: I don't know that. Maybe they don't know that. I mean, 1250 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure they have a good feel for it, but 1251 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if if that's what he is. So 1252 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if they feel that they need to 1253 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 1: get another back that can essentially be, you know, a compliment, 1254 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 1: so that they have two backs who can be explosive, 1255 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:56,560 Speaker 1: because the one thing about Singletary he does have explosive traits. Well, 1256 01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 1: let's go to the backs then. Jonathan Taylor, one of 1257 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,600 Speaker 1: your favorites of the last several weeks, almost a couple 1258 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 1: of months, now still available. Would he be a realistic 1259 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,520 Speaker 1: pick at fifty four? Do you think? Well? To me, 1260 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor is a true foundation back. He's not a 1261 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 1: back you give the ball to seven eight times a game. 1262 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 1: I think he's a true back that you can give 1263 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 1: it to eighteen nineteen times a game and he's your foundation. 1264 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,480 Speaker 1: I love Jonathan Tayler. I think he's the best runner 1265 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,200 Speaker 1: in this draft class. I understand what the Chiefs did 1266 01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:26,200 Speaker 1: last night. We know why they did that because of 1267 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,959 Speaker 1: the style of offense they play, because most of these 1268 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,840 Speaker 1: picks are team and scheme specific. Very few players are 1269 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 1: scheme transcendent. But I think Taylor is the kind of 1270 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 1: back that you can build your offense around, and I think, 1271 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: quite honestly, the Bills will move in that direction. That's 1272 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 1: kind of what they are on offense. You know, I 1273 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 1: think the run game is important. I think Alan under 1274 01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 1: center is important, So you know, I think that if 1275 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 1: he's there and again, now it comes down to their 1276 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:54,919 Speaker 1: evaluation of him. That's the thing we don't know, which 1277 01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 1: is why to me, mock drafts are a waste of time, 1278 01:03:57,880 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: but I know people love them because we don't know 1279 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 1: how teams have their board set. I have no idea 1280 01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,360 Speaker 1: what Sean or Brandon being thinks of Jonathan Taylor, but 1281 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 1: I think he's I thought he was the best runner 1282 01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,080 Speaker 1: in the draft based on my tape study. Well if 1283 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: he is, but can you get a guy who's comparable, 1284 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 1: or even if you can, can you wait another round 1285 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,920 Speaker 1: to get a guy like that? And the certainly the 1286 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 1: Bills are gonna go into the end of the season 1287 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 1: with Devin Singletary no matter what they think of him. 1288 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 1: He was their lead back last year at the end 1289 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: of last year, and they have t J. Yelden as 1290 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 1: well coming back, and a rugby player in Christian Way. 1291 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 1: I mean, those are kind of the only three guys 1292 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 1: they need an auster, you know, they're gonna have to 1293 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:43,400 Speaker 1: get someone somewhere. The draft seems like the perfect place 1294 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 1: if you can get a guy who's the lead back, 1295 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:47,840 Speaker 1: why not? And I and I agree with you. I 1296 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 1: think they need it back in this draft. The question 1297 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:53,400 Speaker 1: that is who they have highly rated, who's there at 1298 01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 1: fifty four? And like I said, if it gets to 1299 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 1: forty eight, forty nine and there's someone they really want, 1300 01:04:57,240 --> 01:05:00,560 Speaker 1: do they make a move? I mean, DeAndre Swift hasn't 1301 01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 1: been drafted yet. I really like Cam Akers at a 1302 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,720 Speaker 1: Florida State. I would love to see him go to 1303 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 1: the Bills. I think he'd be a really good pick 1304 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 1: for them. JK. Dobbins has been very polarizing. People are 1305 01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 1: seemed to be all over the yard with him. As 1306 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:17,480 Speaker 1: far as the evaluation. Some loved him. I think he's solid, 1307 01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 1: you know, so Zach Moss another guy who's kind of 1308 01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:24,720 Speaker 1: a grinder, A sustainer and a grinder. You know. I 1309 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,960 Speaker 1: don't know if you know he's going to be there, 1310 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 1: So you know, I think there's backs to be had. 1311 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:34,439 Speaker 1: It comes down now to your evaluation of those backs. Greg. 1312 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 1: I know you know you kind of gloss over receivers there, 1313 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 1: and I know the Bills have Stefan Diggs and I 1314 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 1: would acknowledge the Bills probably have their top three receivers 1315 01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 1: already in the bag. But there's so many good receivers left. 1316 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 1: Te Hagen's, Denzel Mims, Chase Claypool, Labiscus. You know, how 1317 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 1: would you rank that group? And maybe he would be 1318 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 1: the best fit for the Buffalo Bills if in fact 1319 01:05:56,360 --> 01:06:00,440 Speaker 1: they do get a receiver tonight. Well, I really like 1320 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:04,840 Speaker 1: Michael Pittman and I like Denzel Mims. And again, receivers 1321 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:07,520 Speaker 1: are clearly in the eye of the beholder, because obviously 1322 01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 1: jay oleen Rieger was taken twenty first by Philly, and 1323 01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,919 Speaker 1: I'm in the Philly area, and of course that pick 1324 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 1: was immediately ripped, which you know, I never understand that 1325 01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 1: because obviously that's how the Eagles had guys evaluated. But 1326 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 1: you know, Denzel Mims is a really solid prospect. Michael Pittman, 1327 01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,200 Speaker 1: I have no idea he'll be there at fifty four. 1328 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 1: Chanal is a fascinating prospect. There's a player who I 1329 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 1: think is really intriguing out of Memphis named Antonio Gibson, 1330 01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 1: who played running back and receiver in college at Memphis, 1331 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 1: and he played a lot in the slot. You can 1332 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 1: move him around. He's great run after catch because he 1333 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 1: has running back ability. So the receivers that are here, 1334 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 1: and there's fifteen others. I could mention. Ben Jefferson at 1335 01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 1: A Florida is a fascinating prospect with his precise and 1336 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: subtle route running skill set. So I think the receivers 1337 01:06:58,280 --> 01:06:59,920 Speaker 1: are in the eye of the beholder. It's a pay 1338 01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 1: what you're looking for, how you want to deploy that receiver, 1339 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:07,560 Speaker 1: and then then who do you like? Yeah, and if 1340 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:09,720 Speaker 1: it comes down to it, I still believe I'm with 1341 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:11,920 Speaker 1: you Greg. If there's a lot of guys left on 1342 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 1: the boards, you kind of tend to wait and get 1343 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 1: one later. I think, if I'm trying to predict what 1344 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:18,600 Speaker 1: the Bills are going to do, I still think if 1345 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 1: if one of the top corners is left on the board, 1346 01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 1: I think that's where they'll go. I think if it's 1347 01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:28,960 Speaker 1: going to be like a Jonathan Taylor or Tayron Diggs 1348 01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:31,640 Speaker 1: is there, or Kristin Fulton or somebody's still there one 1349 01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,439 Speaker 1: of the big corners or Cameron Danceler, I think they'll 1350 01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 1: probably go there and then wait on the wide receiver, 1351 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 1: knowing they don't need the wide receiver to contribute as quickly. Yeah, 1352 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:43,120 Speaker 1: And he makes a great point, Steve, I'm curious where 1353 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:46,959 Speaker 1: Diggs goes, where Fulton goes, Danceler. I mean there's still 1354 01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: corners Johnson from Utah, there's corners who are available now. 1355 01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 1: Corners play in this league. Usually corners are the position 1356 01:07:57,840 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 1: that's drafted the most in the draft or a very 1357 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 1: to it. So who knows. Will we see your run 1358 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,880 Speaker 1: on corners. I have no idea, but I don't think 1359 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 1: you ever have enough corners, and maybe if there's one 1360 01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 1: there that they like, it would make sense to take 1361 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:14,480 Speaker 1: a corner. Edge rushers, we can't just gip over at Greg. 1362 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,120 Speaker 1: You could argue pretty convincingly that the Bills need an 1363 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 1: edge rusher more than anything else. But is there anybody 1364 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:22,559 Speaker 1: still available, whether it's z Epinessa or somebody else that 1365 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:24,960 Speaker 1: might make a difference for the Bills drafting in the 1366 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 1: second round. So well, I don't view Epines as an 1367 01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:28,439 Speaker 1: edge rusher, and I think that's why he was not 1368 01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:32,679 Speaker 1: a first round pick. I think there's some really intriguing guys, 1369 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:35,679 Speaker 1: depending on your point of view. I think there's Terrell 1370 01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 1: Lewis of Alabama. I think there's Jabari's a Nigga of Florida. 1371 01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: Julian Okwar of Notre Dame. These are guys that to 1372 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 1: me have traits that need some work, but have traits 1373 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:51,880 Speaker 1: they look the part. So you know, again, without knowing 1374 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:55,719 Speaker 1: where guys get drafted, I don't know that Zach Bond 1375 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:57,960 Speaker 1: from Wisconsin's a fascinating guy to me. But he's two 1376 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty eight pounds and given that they play 1377 01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:03,400 Speaker 1: the Bills, that is a four to three. He'd probably 1378 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 1: have to be an off the ball linebacker in your 1379 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:09,720 Speaker 1: in your base defense, which he didn't really do much 1380 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 1: of at Wisconsin. But he's a really good pass rusher. 1381 01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:15,600 Speaker 1: What do you think about some of the next the 1382 01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:20,160 Speaker 1: other guys, the edge rushers that are still out there, Grossmadows, Davidson, Taylor, Aquara, 1383 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:25,680 Speaker 1: Zinga Zuniga, Terrell Lewis. I'm fascinated by a lot of 1384 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:27,880 Speaker 1: these guys because they have length. You mentioned three of them, 1385 01:09:28,560 --> 01:09:32,400 Speaker 1: well four of them, Lewis, Zo Nakara, and Taylor from Tennessee. 1386 01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:34,519 Speaker 1: They all have length and they all look the part, 1387 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 1: and they have shown explosive traits off the edge. You know, 1388 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: that's what you look for. You want to see some bend, 1389 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,439 Speaker 1: you want to see some flexibility. They've all shown that now. 1390 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:45,920 Speaker 1: I think they all have some work to do. The 1391 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 1: one who fascinates me the most is the kid from 1392 01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 1: Florida's Zoo Nigga. You can move him inside as well. 1393 01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 1: He's he's a fascinating prospect. And he got hurt his 1394 01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:57,640 Speaker 1: last year there, so he only played six games. I 1395 01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: believe that's true. But I found him to be a 1396 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 1: fun watch. He's a guy I really wanted to see 1397 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:05,719 Speaker 1: more of and obviously when we played a certain number 1398 01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:08,400 Speaker 1: of games. But Jabari zoo Ninga, to me, is a 1399 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:13,559 Speaker 1: really interesting prospect. I was gonna ask one follow up. 1400 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: You get these guys like um Aquara Zinga and Terrell Lewis, 1401 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 1: they do have some length, And is there one of 1402 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 1: those guys who's the best prospect of the bunch? I mean, 1403 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:26,519 Speaker 1: is there a guy that's gonna if all those guys 1404 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,760 Speaker 1: are there at fifty four? I mean, and you're saying, Okay, 1405 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta get a guy like that, who's 1406 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:37,840 Speaker 1: it gonna be? Um? I guess for me, I'm most 1407 01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:40,679 Speaker 1: intrigued by Zuniga. He'd be the guy that that really 1408 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 1: now why him and not the other guys? Because I, 1409 01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 1: like you said, are there there's questions about his his 1410 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 1: senior year, he only got six games in right, Well, 1411 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:53,600 Speaker 1: the reason I thought he showed really explosive traits. And 1412 01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: the other thing that I really did like about him, 1413 01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:58,720 Speaker 1: by the way, is he played a lot inside as well, 1414 01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 1: so he's a kind of a movable chess piece in 1415 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,759 Speaker 1: your defensive front as a pass rusher because he showed 1416 01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:07,360 Speaker 1: the ability to rush the quarterback from the inside as well. 1417 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,519 Speaker 1: And pass rush has really become for a lot of 1418 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: teams a matchup game, you're looking to get really good 1419 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,639 Speaker 1: pass rushers matched on guards and centers, and I think 1420 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 1: Zoo Nigga, you know, has a chance to be a 1421 01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 1: stud pass rusher, both working off the edge and then 1422 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:22,720 Speaker 1: bringing him inside at times. He was a guy that 1423 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:26,720 Speaker 1: just I phot He showed outstanding flashes of explosive athleticism 1424 01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,679 Speaker 1: as a pass rusher, and I'm curious to see where 1425 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,600 Speaker 1: he goes and how he develops, because I think he 1426 01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:35,160 Speaker 1: could be a really really good pass rusher. Greg, who's 1427 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,040 Speaker 1: the next quarterback to go tonight? What do you think 1428 01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:40,880 Speaker 1: it will be? It would not surprise me if it's 1429 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. And how early in the second round. Well, 1430 01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 1: I don't have the list in front of me of teams, 1431 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 1: so that's a hard question for me to answer. But 1432 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 1: I think that Jalen Hurts will go earlier than a 1433 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 1: lot of people may have expected, because I think there's 1434 01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 1: a real sense in this league now with all multiple 1435 01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,000 Speaker 1: backfield actions and what you can do with the run 1436 01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,960 Speaker 1: game that includes the quarterback, and how the pass scheme 1437 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 1: can work off that and really define the throws much 1438 01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: in the way the Ravens do with Lamar Jackson. I 1439 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 1: think there's a sense that that can really really be 1440 01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 1: effective now in the NFL. Could be fun tonight. Greg. 1441 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 1: We look forward to talking to you some more. Thanks 1442 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:22,640 Speaker 1: for coming on with us here today. We appreciate it. 1443 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Guys, love being with us. Always. Stay well. 1444 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 1: Thanks Greg, Greg go sal Executive producer analyst NFL Matchup 1445 01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:33,479 Speaker 1: which you catch on ANSBN, Senior producer at NFL Films 1446 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:36,320 Speaker 1: previewing tonight's second round and doing a pretty good recap 1447 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 1: of last night's first round. What do you thinks? Did 1448 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 1: you learn anything? He's really high on Jonathan Taylor. He 1449 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:44,960 Speaker 1: remains high on Jonathan Taylor is a running back and 1450 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:47,519 Speaker 1: I'm glad. I mean I like him. I like him 1451 01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 1: a lot. He's right now sitting here looking at this. 1452 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 1: I like him more than anybody else and at any position. No. Oh, okay, 1453 01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:00,720 Speaker 1: now I do like him. I think I would. It 1454 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:03,320 Speaker 1: depends on who's there, Murph. I mean, if we're all 1455 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 1: the way down the list of prospects at corner, I 1456 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:08,559 Speaker 1: would take a corner, one of the top corners, if 1457 01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 1: they're there before. I would take the running back because 1458 01:13:11,240 --> 01:13:13,040 Speaker 1: I know you're going to get a quality guy later 1459 01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 1: in the draft, and I have and I do have 1460 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: confidence that motor singletary can carry you for the season. 1461 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:23,479 Speaker 1: So I think corner is a spot that they could 1462 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:27,599 Speaker 1: really help them, and it keeps your defense stout, and 1463 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,960 Speaker 1: that's important for an offense that needs to score points. 1464 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 1: You need to keep the other team down.

The 1492 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,599 Speaker 1: tweet sheet, we're asking the question, if you're the Bills, GM, 1493 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:58,000 Speaker 1: what should you do tonight? Kevin tweets in I'd like 1494 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,600 Speaker 1: to see another big body running back drafted the compliments singletary, 1495 01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:05,560 Speaker 1: more linebacker depth also possibly, I anticipate there's gonna be 1496 01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people looking for a running back. What 1497 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 1: do you think, Steve, Yeah, because there's good ones out there. Yeah, 1498 01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor is not gonna be sitting there. I don't think. 1499 01:15:17,800 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's gonna be the guy that 1500 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 1: you know, goes off the board first. And when I 1501 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 1: can't find my little list here that i'm here it is, Yeah, 1502 01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't think he's gonna be there. 1503 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Well, well, we'll see. I just 1504 01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:35,400 Speaker 1: a lot of question marks. But I'm with you. I 1505 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:37,639 Speaker 1: think a lot of teams are gonna go for running back. 1506 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:40,639 Speaker 1: That doesn't necessarily mean the Bills have got to grab 1507 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: one right away that could get That could mean that 1508 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:48,120 Speaker 1: uh and even better running back falls to them. But 1509 01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:52,479 Speaker 1: for me, I'm I don't care where they go. I'm 1510 01:15:52,479 --> 01:15:55,720 Speaker 1: just excited to get there, you know. Yeah, I mean, 1511 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 1: I've been talking We've been talking about these guys forever. 1512 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: What do you think is a better story, Murph, you think, 1513 01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:06,920 Speaker 1: uh Diggs is a better story? Tryvon Diggs coming to 1514 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 1: Buffalo with his brother or the Bills drafting Antoine Winfield Junior. Oh, 1515 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:15,080 Speaker 1: that's a close one. I get them both, and they're 1516 01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:18,360 Speaker 1: both kind of nice sentimental stories. They don't make decisions 1517 01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 1: based on either when you're not suggesting that, right, brother, No, 1518 01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:24,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think. I guess. I don't 1519 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 1: know which is a better story. And I'm not saying 1520 01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:29,720 Speaker 1: I don't care because we'll talk about it if it 1521 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:33,320 Speaker 1: is Diggs or Winfield Junior. But I think Diggs better. 1522 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:36,360 Speaker 1: Jigs is the better player. I mean, they're both sitting there. 1523 01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 1: I think Diggs is the better player. He plays corner. 1524 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:43,160 Speaker 1: Uh and uh yeah, So I'm I'm for that for 1525 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:45,559 Speaker 1: taking the better player. But you know, it's interesting though 1526 01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:47,439 Speaker 1: that we have a connection to both those guys, and 1527 01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,600 Speaker 1: uh one now present day and then the other his 1528 01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 1: father was taken in the first round by the Bills. 1529 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting to see what happens and where 1530 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 1: those guys go. There's another film, the tweet sheet from 1531 01:16:57,240 --> 01:17:00,760 Speaker 1: Tiffany a stut observer says, I would attempt to jump 1532 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:03,639 Speaker 1: up in round two and steal running back DeAndre Swift. 1533 01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:06,879 Speaker 1: I'm stunned he's still available. He's the total package, elusive 1534 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:09,559 Speaker 1: runner with great hands break can we Speed a total 1535 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:13,080 Speaker 1: game changer? Imagine the offense formation coach Davie could dial 1536 01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 1: up with Motor and Swift go bills. Look, I will 1537 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,479 Speaker 1: say I kind of I'm not anti running back. I 1538 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 1: want to set the record straight here, but Steve, I 1539 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,760 Speaker 1: just think the way the NFL is going on, the 1540 01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:25,040 Speaker 1: way you win in the NFL, I just don't think 1541 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 1: there's position value and drafting a running back at fifty four, 1542 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 1: say in or you know, in the second round a 1543 01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,840 Speaker 1: little bit later tomorrow someday, I'd be up for that. 1544 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 1: There's position value there. They have a good running back now, 1545 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,040 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary. They have a good running back who was 1546 01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 1: underutilized last year. I just don't know what the other 1547 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 1: needs they have. And they're not a perfect team. They 1548 01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 1: have needs. I just don't know that I use their 1549 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:50,960 Speaker 1: first pick or their second pick tonight. I'm a running back, 1550 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 1: that's all I'm not. I'm with you. Here's the thing. 1551 01:17:54,040 --> 01:17:56,519 Speaker 1: Everybody's we're fresh in our minds. Is the run that 1552 01:17:56,560 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans put together in the second half of 1553 01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:03,040 Speaker 1: last year with travel with Derrick Henry. I get it, 1554 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,920 Speaker 1: that's great, But do you and I really do I 1555 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:07,519 Speaker 1: believe and I don't know if you do. I don't 1556 01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 1: think you do. I don't believe that Derrick Henry is 1557 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 1: going to do that for an entire season. And I 1558 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:18,559 Speaker 1: don't think they can string years of success together like 1559 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:22,320 Speaker 1: with that philosophy with a running back that cannot be stopped. 1560 01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 1: I just don't think that's sustainable because the running back 1561 01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 1: just doesn't last that long. You're gonna use him up 1562 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:34,479 Speaker 1: before you can find another one that's as good. Derrick 1563 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:38,799 Speaker 1: Henry is an enormous dude, and he put it together 1564 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:41,160 Speaker 1: really well in the last half of that season. And 1565 01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 1: it's one of the rare occasions in today's NFL where 1566 01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 1: you saw a running back transform the ability of an 1567 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,880 Speaker 1: offense to get the most out of their quarterback. Because 1568 01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill is still Ryan Tannehill, He's still the Ryan 1569 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:57,800 Speaker 1: Tannehill who playing for the Dolphins, but because he had 1570 01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:02,920 Speaker 1: this Derrick Henry guy running wild, it was unstoppable. The 1571 01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:05,920 Speaker 1: game became so easy for the Titan quarterback that even 1572 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:10,679 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill looked like a Pro Bowl, possibly Super Bowl 1573 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:15,520 Speaker 1: winning quarterback. That to me, is not sustainable, that philosophy 1574 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:19,719 Speaker 1: on offense. It's too physically challenging and demanding that week 1575 01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:22,840 Speaker 1: after week you're gonna get eleven fresh guys taking pot 1576 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 1: shots at your prize cow in Derrick Henry. It's not 1577 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 1: gonna last. And I'm not gonna build my team like that, 1578 01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 1: and I don't think the Bills will. So don't get 1579 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:37,879 Speaker 1: enamored that that's how to win. It's not. In my opinion. 1580 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:41,880 Speaker 1: You need running backs more like Devin Singletary who can run, 1581 01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 1: catch pass, pick up a blitz now and then slip 1582 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:47,839 Speaker 1: out for a screen pass, do a lot of other stuff. 1583 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,800 Speaker 1: You build a team because of your offensive line and 1584 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:55,760 Speaker 1: your quarterbacks ability to hit the open guy. That's the 1585 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:57,880 Speaker 1: way it is. And you can also win with a 1586 01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:00,800 Speaker 1: dominant defense, like we've seen in the past ten years 1587 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 1: with teams doing that. So yeah, running back is important, 1588 01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:10,439 Speaker 1: but you're not building your offense around the guy. So 1589 01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Murph. Having said all of that, if 1590 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:17,800 Speaker 1: he's the best guy out there, and he's better than 1591 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:21,679 Speaker 1: the guy you got get him, No, you got other needs, 1592 01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:23,960 Speaker 1: though you got other needs. I don't think our needs 1593 01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:27,719 Speaker 1: are is as deep as you know that we need 1594 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:29,400 Speaker 1: that there's a go you know you're telling me you 1595 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 1: need is like a wide receiver. I don't think so. 1596 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:34,839 Speaker 1: We could We could have gone deep in the playoffs 1597 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:39,880 Speaker 1: last year without Stefon Diggs. I mean that, you know so. 1598 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:43,759 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a glaring need. It'd be nice. 1599 01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:46,120 Speaker 1: I think it's a luxury. I think it's a I 1600 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 1: think it's a hood ornament right now, it's a it's 1601 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 1: a fresh coat of paint on what we're looking at 1602 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,680 Speaker 1: right now with this team. I don't think that's an 1603 01:20:52,760 --> 01:20:56,680 Speaker 1: engine cog what wide receiver? Yeah? I agree with there 1604 01:20:56,720 --> 01:20:59,880 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty, But there's life after this season too. 1605 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:02,920 Speaker 1: Well that's fine, but I want to get us as 1606 01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:04,360 Speaker 1: good as we can get this year and we'll worry 1607 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 1: about next year. Is this one progresses? Take all here 1608 01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:10,439 Speaker 1: from Brandon Lack. I wanta hello, brand you're on the air. Hey, 1609 01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 1: what's going on guys? Hope you guys are staying safe 1610 01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:16,200 Speaker 1: through all this? Yeah, we're good, good good. Yeah. My 1611 01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:19,799 Speaker 1: fiance's works. She's had like twenty dusts from this COVID. 1612 01:21:19,840 --> 01:21:25,439 Speaker 1: So old folks on Father Baker Manner and Orchard park 1613 01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:31,360 Speaker 1: At That's tragic, It's terrible. Yeah. Um, I just wanted 1614 01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:34,400 Speaker 1: to comment on a couple position groups. I was hoping 1615 01:21:34,439 --> 01:21:38,799 Speaker 1: that we would look at obviously corner, outside linebacker, and 1616 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 1: the running back position. I know you guys have been 1617 01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 1: talking a lot about them. Guys, some of the prospects 1618 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:48,559 Speaker 1: I like, agree with you on Diggs. Also, I like 1619 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:52,320 Speaker 1: that Jonathan Greenyard from Florida. But my favorite prospects still 1620 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:57,679 Speaker 1: available aside from Jonathan Taylor and JK. Dobbins, is Zach 1621 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 1: Bond out of Wiscon and he's got double digit sacks. 1622 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,640 Speaker 1: He's a turnover machine. And I was watching some of 1623 01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,680 Speaker 1: his highlight film and he kind of reminds me a 1624 01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:12,519 Speaker 1: little bit of Derrel Dalley. You know, we don't talk 1625 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:15,679 Speaker 1: about linebacker as much. Stephen outside linebacker. Um, he played 1626 01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:17,639 Speaker 1: it in three to four I believe in Wisconsin, So 1627 01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: you have some adjustment to make. What do you think 1628 01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:25,679 Speaker 1: of a linebacker, Steve, I get it, Lorenzo Alexander's cone. 1629 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:28,040 Speaker 1: They got a J. Klein from the Saints, so they 1630 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 1: got it. Brought in a veteran guy. You've got your 1631 01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 1: The main lynch pins of your linebacking corps is Tremaine 1632 01:22:35,240 --> 01:22:40,200 Speaker 1: Edmonds and Matt Milano. They're both young to get younger 1633 01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:43,880 Speaker 1: and better. Yeah, it's hard to argue with that, It 1634 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:46,000 Speaker 1: really is. It's hard to argue with that. And you 1635 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,280 Speaker 1: get a guy who can do a lot of things, 1636 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,040 Speaker 1: particularly in the front seven. If he can come up 1637 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: and be stout in the run and also create turnovers 1638 01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 1: and rush the passer once in a while, that might 1639 01:22:56,200 --> 01:23:00,240 Speaker 1: help with the Lorenzo losing Lorenzo, you know, so I'm 1640 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:03,080 Speaker 1: all for it. We haven't talked much about it because 1641 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 1: it's it's hard from our perspective unless you're gonna grind 1642 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,640 Speaker 1: through film and do it a lot. Linebackers are hard 1643 01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:14,160 Speaker 1: to evaluate for me. Um, you know, you see him 1644 01:23:14,160 --> 01:23:16,200 Speaker 1: make a lot of tackles. Okay, Is it because the 1645 01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:18,479 Speaker 1: defensive linemen are playing well ahead of him and keeping 1646 01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:21,519 Speaker 1: guys off him? Why? Why is he you know, considered 1647 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:25,840 Speaker 1: a good player? So I don't know, that might be 1648 01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 1: the one that that might be the position that's furthest 1649 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:35,599 Speaker 1: off our radar? Do you think Murphy if you're mute, Yeah, 1650 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:38,680 Speaker 1: that's a dollar, just a dollar. Okay, Now I have 1651 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:41,240 Speaker 1: a reason why it is off our radar, radar, at 1652 01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:44,559 Speaker 1: least off my radar, and it's that I'll never you know, 1653 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:47,040 Speaker 1: it was not stunning to me, but it got my 1654 01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,600 Speaker 1: eyes open when Leslie Frazier, this past winner, came in 1655 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:53,919 Speaker 1: our show and said they played, you know, nickel defense 1656 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:57,240 Speaker 1: seventy percent of the time. So a third linebacker's gonna 1657 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:59,639 Speaker 1: be a part time player, a rotational player at best 1658 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 1: for the Bills. Yeah. I mean a J. Lion Is 1659 01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:04,400 Speaker 1: is signed and he could move in there, and I 1660 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:06,679 Speaker 1: think he could be effective. But you want to spend 1661 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:09,240 Speaker 1: your draft capital this year and a guy would played 1662 01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:10,960 Speaker 1: thirty percent of the snaps, I don't know. I don't 1663 01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:12,640 Speaker 1: know about that. Yeah, I don't know. If he's a 1664 01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:14,800 Speaker 1: good player, and you're talking about the second round or 1665 01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:17,760 Speaker 1: maybe the third round later tonight, Yeah, maybe you do 1666 01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:20,040 Speaker 1: spend that on a guy that plays thirty percent of 1667 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:26,200 Speaker 1: your defensive snaps. Lorenzo played what it's there's a spot 1668 01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 1: for guys like that, and that's the way the league 1669 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:29,960 Speaker 1: is now. You got you got guys running on and 1670 01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:33,080 Speaker 1: off the field every play. I mean, we talked about 1671 01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:36,040 Speaker 1: this Lorenzos had other roles to play on the defense. 1672 01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,360 Speaker 1: By the way, he would line up on the defensive line, 1673 01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:41,599 Speaker 1: he'd line up as an interior defensive linement on third downs. 1674 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 1: So just think that they could draft a guy to 1675 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,880 Speaker 1: take over everything Lorenzo was doing on defense, I think 1676 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 1: is a reach. I don't think that would happen. Yeah, 1677 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:51,840 Speaker 1: I think it's it. You need to understand too, and 1678 01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 1: ask the question of these prospects that you know, our 1679 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:56,800 Speaker 1: caller just called in and went down the list, which 1680 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,160 Speaker 1: one of those guys is the most versatile, Which one's 1681 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,960 Speaker 1: the best athlete, Which one is like Isaiah Simmons, the 1682 01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 1: kid out of Clemson. You know, which one can play 1683 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:07,200 Speaker 1: different spots. What are his strengths and weaknesses and how 1684 01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 1: will they fit, how can you use them, and how 1685 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,479 Speaker 1: would they help the Bills defense. So that's the real question, 1686 01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 1: and that's what it's really hard to know about. Zach 1687 01:25:15,640 --> 01:25:19,200 Speaker 1: Bond and Kenneth Murray. And Kenneth Murray who was just 1688 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 1: picked by the Chargers, Logan Wilson out of Wyoming, Josh 1689 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 1: Uch out of Michigan. There's a ton of guys on 1690 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:31,920 Speaker 1: this list. Davis Gaither from Appalachian state and you go up. 1691 01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:34,040 Speaker 1: The highest one that I'm looking at is the Zach 1692 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:38,479 Speaker 1: Bond kid out of Wisconsin. He's got a chance to 1693 01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:41,880 Speaker 1: be really good. But you're right, Murph, is he gonna 1694 01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 1: get on the field. He's not certainly not gonna play 1695 01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:47,400 Speaker 1: in front of Tremaine Edmonds. If he's that kind of 1696 01:25:47,439 --> 01:25:52,559 Speaker 1: player six two, two thirty eight, I don't know, We'll see. 1697 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:54,800 Speaker 1: He's not the athlete that Isaiah Simmons is. He ran 1698 01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 1: a four six five forty, but maybe he brings other 1699 01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:00,040 Speaker 1: things to the table. I think he gotta get a 1700 01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:04,360 Speaker 1: guy who's versatile, like Lorenzo Alexander. Like I like this kid, 1701 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:12,040 Speaker 1: Isaiah Uh, you know from Simmons, Yeah, Isaiah Simmons. All 1702 01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:16,920 Speaker 1: these these versatile athletes like Minca Fitzpatrick, the athletes on 1703 01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:19,799 Speaker 1: defense that can do different things that in a pinch, 1704 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:22,840 Speaker 1: can man up on a tight end or corner. Uh, 1705 01:26:23,040 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 1: can man up on a running back and cover them 1706 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,040 Speaker 1: and then also come up and you know, stick their 1707 01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:30,920 Speaker 1: nose in the running game. You need a guy that 1708 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:33,040 Speaker 1: can do a bunch. And that's really the question you 1709 01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:35,600 Speaker 1: need to ask when you're talking about linebackers today in 1710 01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 1: the NFL. Matt Milano twenty five years ages to the 1711 01:26:38,240 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 1: light in today's game. He's really good because he can run. 1712 01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:46,360 Speaker 1: All right, we got a break and we're back with more. 1713 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:49,759 Speaker 1: One's Live presented by Klada Health.

Hello, Jeff, how are you? Jeff and Buffalo 1720 01:27:15,120 --> 01:27:20,720 Speaker 1: have been waiting a while? Half Jeff, Yeff, I'm gonna 1721 01:27:20,720 --> 01:27:22,080 Speaker 1: give him a minute because you've been waiting for an 1722 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 1: over an hour. But I'm not gonna wait all day. 1723 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:35,640 Speaker 1: Jeff three, very patiently. If you're on the air online Monopoly, Jeff, 1724 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:39,080 Speaker 1: you're on the air, how are you? And I'm I 1725 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm about to hit board walk with the hotel. 1726 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 1: Could be Jeff, Jeff, if you're playing Monopoly or you're 1727 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 1: coming on the show with us, what are you doing? Um? Now, 1728 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:49,880 Speaker 1: I'm on the show. I'm gonna put the board away. Yeah, 1729 01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 1: iPads kind of go someplace holset ye thinking about their 1730 01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:58,200 Speaker 1: draft and thinking about all your prospects for Day two. 1731 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:03,600 Speaker 1: And with all the improvements that we've made in the 1732 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:07,280 Speaker 1: last year, the improvements we've made are already on the roster. 1733 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 1: So on the defensive side of the ball, I think 1734 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:15,519 Speaker 1: we need to start grooming Garry huss replacement. You want 1735 01:28:15,520 --> 01:28:19,479 Speaker 1: to keep that defense elite, so Josh Allen can use 1736 01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:22,400 Speaker 1: the weapons he can be on the field. We can 1737 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 1: create turnovers and pressure is going to make a Norman better. 1738 01:28:27,560 --> 01:28:29,559 Speaker 1: Lee By Wallace is gonna be better for that with 1739 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:31,880 Speaker 1: that pressure. So I think you got to look for 1740 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:36,840 Speaker 1: that guy if he's there looking for a defensive linemen. Yeah, 1741 01:28:36,880 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 1: and edge rusher because I cline and bringing Klein in 1742 01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 1: gives you depth and versatility. The also the guy from 1743 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:48,200 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh gives you a little bit of versatility. Um, but 1744 01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:52,120 Speaker 1: I think we need pressure and pressure makes r DB's better. Um. 1745 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:55,720 Speaker 1: You know you've you've debated that over the years, and 1746 01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:59,639 Speaker 1: you know having great corners is wonderful, but having great 1747 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 1: pressure makes your corners better. So well, it's also the 1748 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:06,759 Speaker 1: reverse is also true. When the coverage is there, they 1749 01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:09,599 Speaker 1: have more time. And I agree with you. I think 1750 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:12,280 Speaker 1: it's a lot of both. And I do know that 1751 01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:15,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people are panicking because Jerry Hughes is 1752 01:29:15,400 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 1: getting old and Trent Murphy's in the last year his deal, 1753 01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:20,960 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I don't know what we're gonna 1754 01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,000 Speaker 1: do for a pass rush after you know, all these 1755 01:29:23,040 --> 01:29:29,400 Speaker 1: guys leave. Don't forget, you know, the Bills just spent 1756 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of money bringing in some pretty 1757 01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:37,439 Speaker 1: quality guys to play for this year. And it starts 1758 01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 1: with Mario Addison, it starts with Vernon Butler, Quinton Jefferson. 1759 01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:48,920 Speaker 1: Those three guys are really good players. Quin Vernon but 1760 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:52,040 Speaker 1: I mean Quintin Jefferson's a really good defensive Tyler. Vernon 1761 01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:55,640 Speaker 1: Butler's a really good defensive tackle from Carolina. Quinton Jefferson's 1762 01:29:55,680 --> 01:29:59,400 Speaker 1: a really good defensive end from Seattle. And if you 1763 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 1: look at this to satistics from a year ago, they've 1764 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 1: more than replaced them with the guys that they lost. Oh, 1765 01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 1: and I get it everybody's worried about Jerry Hughes leaving. 1766 01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm I think we got plenty of 1767 01:30:11,200 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 1: time to get that done without going out a limb 1768 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:16,839 Speaker 1: in this draft and picking a guy who and stretch 1769 01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:19,640 Speaker 1: for a guy who may never be that good. I 1770 01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:24,040 Speaker 1: guess my thought is, with the proven deals we've brought in, 1771 01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:26,960 Speaker 1: I would like to have a guy at each level 1772 01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:29,559 Speaker 1: in the defense that's a rock. And Jerry Hughes hasn't 1773 01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:32,519 Speaker 1: been a rock Tradabus White, you just paid him, he's 1774 01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:35,760 Speaker 1: been a rock. I want somebody there who you can 1775 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:39,559 Speaker 1: play off of, who's a rock. So these provo deals, 1776 01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:41,800 Speaker 1: who maybe one of them become the long term guy 1777 01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm getting at Oliver seems to be your rock interior Blineman, 1778 01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:51,559 Speaker 1: I want something. We got to get to the top 1779 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:53,120 Speaker 1: of the hour, Jeb. But let me just say I 1780 01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:55,679 Speaker 1: kind of agree with you on your philosophy. Are getting 1781 01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:58,720 Speaker 1: a rock? But I don't think rocks are born. I 1782 01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:00,479 Speaker 1: think they're made, you know what I mean, A guy 1783 01:31:00,520 --> 01:31:02,479 Speaker 1: you can always rely on. I think you'd be hard 1784 01:31:02,479 --> 01:31:04,360 Speaker 1: pressed to draft a guy and put plug him in 1785 01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:06,840 Speaker 1: and say he's our guy, he's our rock. I don't know, 1786 01:31:06,960 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 1: And you said it at Oliver. I don't think anybody 1787 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 1: looks at him as a rock upfront just yet, do you? 1788 01:31:12,439 --> 01:31:15,719 Speaker 1: I look at him as a potential rock. You're gonna 1789 01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:17,559 Speaker 1: pay you know, when you get to that this year. 1790 01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: If he continues to improve, you're going to pay him. 1791 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:24,559 Speaker 1: The guys are on one or two year deals. We're 1792 01:31:24,600 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: not sure yet. I got you all right, Thanks, Jeff, 1793 01:31:27,880 --> 01:31:30,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that he's right. You know what. But 1794 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,120 Speaker 1: here's a guy who they signed to a short deal. 1795 01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was one or two, but 1796 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:37,280 Speaker 1: Lorenzo Alexander became a rock, you know, for this team. 1797 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:40,320 Speaker 1: Now he's gone. But you develop guys into rocks, and 1798 01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 1: I think I know what he means by that. And 1799 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:43,920 Speaker 1: he talked about a guy who can rely on and 1800 01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:47,120 Speaker 1: depend on and will instill help you instill the culture 1801 01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 1: you want to instill. But I don't mean draft a 1802 01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:51,800 Speaker 1: guy or acquire a guy and say boom, he's our guy. 1803 01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:54,519 Speaker 1: You Steve no. But I'll tell you this, Murphy, we 1804 01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:56,439 Speaker 1: talked about it, particularly during the season. We've kind of 1805 01:31:56,439 --> 01:31:58,400 Speaker 1: forgot about us since we're talking about this draft. But 1806 01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:01,720 Speaker 1: that coaching staff that we have here, and we had 1807 01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:08,719 Speaker 1: our our guest yesterday alluded to it. Mike Ross from 1808 01:32:08,920 --> 01:32:13,600 Speaker 1: the NFL from uh uh the U from the NFL, 1809 01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:20,240 Speaker 1: Mark Cross. He having a coaching staff and talent development 1810 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 1: program is something I think the Buffalo Bills have done 1811 01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:26,760 Speaker 1: a really really nice job at you forget some guy 1812 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:31,200 Speaker 1: like like uh, Devin Singletary, like some of the even 1813 01:32:31,240 --> 01:32:34,280 Speaker 1: even Duke Williams, how he developed throughout the year I got. 1814 01:32:34,400 --> 01:32:37,240 Speaker 1: I got high hopes for Bam Johnson, Darryl Johnson who's 1815 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:39,559 Speaker 1: already on the roster. And also you know the high 1816 01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:44,839 Speaker 1: draft picks like Cody Ford and uh and at Oliver 1817 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:49,160 Speaker 1: Tremaine Edmonds has certainly developed, Matt Milano has certainly developed. 1818 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:52,240 Speaker 1: Their ability on the coaching staff to get these guys 1819 01:32:52,280 --> 01:32:55,679 Speaker 1: to play better than they have and do it weekend 1820 01:32:55,800 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 1: week out, get better and better and better until they 1821 01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:00,120 Speaker 1: reach their full potential. I think that's one of the 1822 01:33:00,160 --> 01:33:06,439 Speaker 1: assets that has been underappreciated here in this offseason that 1823 01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:08,120 Speaker 1: we've seen. I don't have a problem with him getting 1824 01:33:08,120 --> 01:33:09,880 Speaker 1: a guy that developed, because I have a lot of 1825 01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 1: faith in McDermott and the staff to get something out 1826 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,479 Speaker 1: of him.

All right, 1921 01:37:51,520 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 1: we all set it intellectually, Brownie, but we knew coming 1922 01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:56,479 Speaker 1: into the second round there's gonna be some good players 1923 01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:58,360 Speaker 1: left on the board, But now today it's like, oh, 1924 01:37:58,400 --> 01:38:01,320 Speaker 1: there's a lot of them. Give me two or three 1925 01:38:01,400 --> 01:38:03,840 Speaker 1: position groups that you think the Bills will be looking 1926 01:38:03,920 --> 01:38:07,120 Speaker 1: hard at, and give me a couple of names. Yeah, 1927 01:38:07,160 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, I want to We've talked about this, and 1928 01:38:11,080 --> 01:38:13,360 Speaker 1: I think cornerbacks an area where they'd like to go. 1929 01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:17,880 Speaker 1: I think, you know, linebacker, would be nice to get 1930 01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:22,799 Speaker 1: a fast running and hit linebacker, and you know, offensive tackle. 1931 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:26,120 Speaker 1: But here's the thing, guys, you saw six offensive tackles 1932 01:38:26,120 --> 01:38:28,960 Speaker 1: come off the board yesterday, and you're surprising. At least 1933 01:38:28,960 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 1: to me, it was surprising to see six cornerbacks come 1934 01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:35,400 Speaker 1: off the board yesterday. There was an early run on corners, 1935 01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:38,160 Speaker 1: and I think there were even a couple of reaches 1936 01:38:38,200 --> 01:38:41,240 Speaker 1: in round one. I thought aj Terrell went a little 1937 01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:42,920 Speaker 1: higher than he should have. I thought he was like 1938 01:38:42,960 --> 01:38:45,840 Speaker 1: a fringe end of the first round type prospect. And 1939 01:38:45,960 --> 01:38:49,240 Speaker 1: Damon Arnette I had as a second round guy, and 1940 01:38:49,360 --> 01:38:52,680 Speaker 1: you know he goes nineteenth overall to the Raiders. So 1941 01:38:53,439 --> 01:38:55,800 Speaker 1: and I think that only prompted the run from there. 1942 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,720 Speaker 1: And you know you had two more go in the 1943 01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:00,960 Speaker 1: last three picks in the round on one, so a 1944 01:39:01,040 --> 01:39:03,760 Speaker 1: total of six corners off the board. So just looking 1945 01:39:03,840 --> 01:39:07,840 Speaker 1: at how I have guys ranked for Day two, you 1946 01:39:07,960 --> 01:39:13,440 Speaker 1: really only have three or four cornerbacks with second round value. 1947 01:39:13,880 --> 01:39:18,719 Speaker 1: You really only have three linebackers with second round value, 1948 01:39:19,040 --> 01:39:23,000 Speaker 1: and probably only two offensive tackles with true second round values. 1949 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:26,240 Speaker 1: So the positions where the Bills might be looking, I 1950 01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:27,960 Speaker 1: don't know if much is going to be left if 1951 01:39:27,960 --> 01:39:31,320 Speaker 1: they stay where they are at fifty four, Brownie. As 1952 01:39:31,320 --> 01:39:33,559 Speaker 1: far as yesterday, as far as the first round yesterday, 1953 01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:37,040 Speaker 1: let's talk about the Bills AMC East Division rivals. It's 1954 01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:39,400 Speaker 1: been read, it's been written several times all over the 1955 01:39:39,479 --> 01:39:42,080 Speaker 1: league that the Dolphins won the day yesterday were their 1956 01:39:42,120 --> 01:39:44,720 Speaker 1: three first rounders. What did you think of Miami's day? Yeah, 1957 01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:47,519 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you can certainly check the boxes 1958 01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:50,400 Speaker 1: as far as positional needs go. I think two is 1959 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:54,799 Speaker 1: a good pick. By all reports that we've seen floating 1960 01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:59,000 Speaker 1: around from the NFL national reporters and such who have 1961 01:39:59,120 --> 01:40:02,400 Speaker 1: contacts with medical doctors who are obviously trying to get 1962 01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:05,120 Speaker 1: the word out on prospects, so agents are happy with 1963 01:40:05,160 --> 01:40:09,120 Speaker 1: where their players get drafted. All signs were positive regarding 1964 01:40:09,200 --> 01:40:14,320 Speaker 1: Toa's medical situation, but I'd still be a little bit 1965 01:40:14,360 --> 01:40:19,120 Speaker 1: nervous knowing he is not big in stature, and if 1966 01:40:19,120 --> 01:40:22,200 Speaker 1: he was that susceptible to injury, and not small injuries. 1967 01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:25,639 Speaker 1: We're talking major injuries at the college level. I think 1968 01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:27,680 Speaker 1: there has to be some measure of concern. But I 1969 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:31,599 Speaker 1: think most people, most of the experts that you know 1970 01:40:31,640 --> 01:40:35,600 Speaker 1: work for NFL teams as general managers or personnel executives 1971 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:38,439 Speaker 1: were of the opinion the two was the better prospect 1972 01:40:38,439 --> 01:40:41,160 Speaker 1: over Herbert, so I understand why he went before Herbert did. 1973 01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:44,679 Speaker 1: But then with respect to offensive tackle, they needed one 1974 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:46,720 Speaker 1: and if you're going to go with to it, you 1975 01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:50,200 Speaker 1: better have him protected. And they did that, you know, 1976 01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:54,600 Speaker 1: by taking the tackle that they did. And then you 1977 01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:58,720 Speaker 1: look at the cornerback that they took. That was perplexing 1978 01:40:58,760 --> 01:41:01,120 Speaker 1: to me, only because they have two starting corners and 1979 01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:05,559 Speaker 1: Byron Jones and Xavian Howard, they're saying that they're probably 1980 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:07,720 Speaker 1: gonna play him in the nickel. Here's the problem that 1981 01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:12,200 Speaker 1: I have with Austin Jackson and with Noah Igbanagenay. The 1982 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:17,680 Speaker 1: two guys are young, ascending type players with high ceilings. 1983 01:41:18,640 --> 01:41:21,679 Speaker 1: I'm worried that they're gonna be thrust into major roles 1984 01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:25,160 Speaker 1: right away because the Dolphins have so many holes and 1985 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,160 Speaker 1: I think they might put a lot on the plates 1986 01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:29,280 Speaker 1: of those two players, and there's gonna be some growing 1987 01:41:29,320 --> 01:41:31,880 Speaker 1: pains there. Jackson, I think is going to be a really, 1988 01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:34,160 Speaker 1: really good tackle in a couple of years, but as 1989 01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:35,720 Speaker 1: a rookie right away, if they stick him on the 1990 01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:38,720 Speaker 1: left side, he's gonna have some rough weeks. And then 1991 01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:41,800 Speaker 1: for Igbogenay, the guy is a young player at the 1992 01:41:41,840 --> 01:41:45,280 Speaker 1: cornerback position. He's only played there for two years, doesn't 1993 01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:50,920 Speaker 1: really understand reading pattern and combinations and all of that 1994 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:54,240 Speaker 1: stuff from the opposed offense. And now if they are 1995 01:41:54,240 --> 01:41:55,799 Speaker 1: in fact going to put him in the nickel position, 1996 01:41:55,840 --> 01:41:58,439 Speaker 1: that's a completely different role from playing out on the 1997 01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:00,760 Speaker 1: boundary or playing field corner, which is where he played 1998 01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:03,759 Speaker 1: for Auburn. So I think there's a lot of learning 1999 01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:06,679 Speaker 1: curve here. For the other two picks that the Dolphins 2000 01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:09,559 Speaker 1: took in Round one, well, and I say too. Murph 2001 01:42:09,560 --> 01:42:12,439 Speaker 1: and I were both very complimentary of the Dolphins and 2002 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:14,760 Speaker 1: what they did because we're like you, I mean, but 2003 01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:17,639 Speaker 1: how easy does it? How easy is it to win 2004 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:21,160 Speaker 1: the day when you got three picks, you right, and 2005 01:42:21,320 --> 01:42:24,559 Speaker 1: you get your pick of the top three prospects at 2006 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:28,240 Speaker 1: anyone given position. Certainly they did not overthink the quarterback thing. 2007 01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:31,800 Speaker 1: They're gonna take two a tag of eyloa and take 2008 01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:36,000 Speaker 1: their chances, right. I mean, you can slice anyway one. 2009 01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:37,800 Speaker 1: I made this point to Murph earlier, and I'll see 2010 01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:41,240 Speaker 1: what you think about it, Brownie. We've seen players with 2011 01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:44,519 Speaker 1: injury histories in college come in and go through like 2012 01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:49,120 Speaker 1: ironclad players for a long, perfect career. We've also seen 2013 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:51,479 Speaker 1: guys with no injury history come in and not be 2014 01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:53,439 Speaker 1: able to stay on the field in the pros. I 2015 01:42:53,479 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 1: think when you look at tag of eloh and that 2016 01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:58,559 Speaker 1: it's like, how do you know? But I know this 2017 01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:01,960 Speaker 1: from the moment we saw him step on the field 2018 01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:05,160 Speaker 1: in Alabama. The guy was a pro prospect. He had 2019 01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:07,720 Speaker 1: it all. He's still got it all, And now that 2020 01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:10,280 Speaker 1: he's been got a few dents in his fender, that 2021 01:43:10,360 --> 01:43:12,800 Speaker 1: shouldn't change the kind of prospect he is and the 2022 01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:14,800 Speaker 1: kind of player he can be. Even if they only 2023 01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:17,599 Speaker 1: get him for six years, he's gonna be a really, 2024 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 1: really good player for them when he's healthy. Yeah, and 2025 01:43:19,920 --> 01:43:22,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see how fast he gets 2026 01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:25,639 Speaker 1: on the field. I think Dolphins fans are anticipating this 2027 01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:28,600 Speaker 1: guy is lock Stock and Barrel week one starter. But 2028 01:43:28,680 --> 01:43:32,280 Speaker 1: I don't think we can forget Ryan Fitzpatrick knows the 2029 01:43:32,320 --> 01:43:34,439 Speaker 1: offense that he's walking into this year like the back 2030 01:43:34,479 --> 01:43:37,080 Speaker 1: of his hand. Shane Gailey is there as offensive coordinator. 2031 01:43:37,360 --> 01:43:40,720 Speaker 1: That guy knows the out offense better than anybody that's 2032 01:43:40,720 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 1: probably still playing in the league right now. Now, what 2033 01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:46,280 Speaker 1: does logic say. Logic says you took the kid fifth, 2034 01:43:46,439 --> 01:43:49,439 Speaker 1: put him on the field. I'm gonna be interested to 2035 01:43:49,439 --> 01:43:52,320 Speaker 1: see how things play out in training camp for them. Hey, Chris, 2036 01:43:52,520 --> 01:43:54,479 Speaker 1: I mentioned this as Steven the first hour. I heard 2037 01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:57,479 Speaker 1: some of the on the draft last night say Dolphins 2038 01:43:57,479 --> 01:44:00,760 Speaker 1: can use to give him like a medical red shirt 2039 01:44:00,800 --> 01:44:03,720 Speaker 1: they got Fits. Let him get completely healthy, let him 2040 01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:06,000 Speaker 1: learn that offense, and kind of take it easy. They 2041 01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,000 Speaker 1: don't have to. I know he's a fifth overall, but 2042 01:44:08,040 --> 01:44:09,519 Speaker 1: they don't have to throw him into the breach rather 2043 01:44:09,600 --> 01:44:12,639 Speaker 1: way right or wrong. I don't think they do. It's 2044 01:44:12,680 --> 01:44:15,240 Speaker 1: gonna be interesting because we've seen teams over the years 2045 01:44:15,960 --> 01:44:20,040 Speaker 1: sometimes ben to public pressure, you know, and they know, 2046 01:44:20,479 --> 01:44:24,160 Speaker 1: let's face it, as much as everybody loves Fits, two 2047 01:44:24,280 --> 01:44:27,080 Speaker 1: is a draw. And if he's and we've seen that 2048 01:44:27,160 --> 01:44:31,240 Speaker 1: stadium guys very often October November, it's half full, yep. 2049 01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:33,639 Speaker 1: So you want to sell some more tickets, get people 2050 01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:36,479 Speaker 1: in the building, you know, Provider, we're out from under 2051 01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:40,519 Speaker 1: the you know, cover of the COVID nineteen situation. That 2052 01:44:40,600 --> 01:44:43,479 Speaker 1: guy's gonna put butts in the seats. So There's a 2053 01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:46,000 Speaker 1: lot of factors that go into whether a guy should 2054 01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:48,160 Speaker 1: play earlier or not, and it's gonna be interesting to 2055 01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:50,679 Speaker 1: see who makes the ultimate decision there. Is it Stephen 2056 01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:53,479 Speaker 1: Ross who wants to get more ticket revenue, you know? 2057 01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:56,559 Speaker 1: Or is it Chris Greer and Brian Flores. So we've 2058 01:44:56,560 --> 01:44:59,960 Speaker 1: got these position groups out there, Brownie, and they've got 2059 01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:03,240 Speaker 1: some pretty good players at the top of most of them. 2060 01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:06,679 Speaker 1: You know, Treyvon Digg probably won't fall to fifty four, 2061 01:45:08,600 --> 01:45:12,280 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor probably maybe probably won't fall to fifty four, 2062 01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:16,360 Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift maybe not fall to fifty four, Gross Maadows 2063 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:19,479 Speaker 1: the edge yet or must Grossmados may not fall to 2064 01:45:19,560 --> 01:45:22,240 Speaker 1: fifty four. Some of the other guys might. Julian Aquara, 2065 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:28,400 Speaker 1: Zeniga Zaniga, who Greg Costelle really likes. Give us a 2066 01:45:28,560 --> 01:45:31,960 Speaker 1: guess at you know, if one of those top guys 2067 01:45:32,000 --> 01:45:35,559 Speaker 1: at one of these position groups, like Trevon Diggs, Jalen 2068 01:45:35,640 --> 01:45:39,720 Speaker 1: Johnson at corner, Gross Maados or Davidson at at edge, 2069 01:45:39,760 --> 01:45:43,200 Speaker 1: Rusher or Swift or Jonathan Taylor at running back, which 2070 01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:46,400 Speaker 1: one of those six names, you know, do the Bills 2071 01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:49,040 Speaker 1: get or if they have to jump up three spots 2072 01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:51,519 Speaker 1: or five spots, which one do they need? It's I mean, 2073 01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:54,240 Speaker 1: it's really hard to read this. I mean I think 2074 01:45:54,640 --> 01:45:59,160 Speaker 1: early here on day two, you're gonna probably see the 2075 01:45:59,240 --> 01:46:02,920 Speaker 1: two tackle with second round grades go fast and talking 2076 01:46:03,040 --> 01:46:06,280 Speaker 1: Josh Jones from Houston as Rick Cleveland from Boise State, 2077 01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 1: because I think after that it's a drop off. So 2078 01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:10,639 Speaker 1: those two players are going to be in high demand. 2079 01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:13,040 Speaker 1: And then you think about the next three or four 2080 01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:20,280 Speaker 1: corners digs Christian Fulton from LSU, cam Danzler who may 2081 01:46:20,280 --> 01:46:22,240 Speaker 1: not have a grade forty time, but is a long 2082 01:46:22,360 --> 01:46:25,120 Speaker 1: corner and makes a lot of plays on the ball 2083 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:28,360 Speaker 1: from Mississippi State. He's probably gonna go somewhere in round two, 2084 01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:30,880 Speaker 1: maybe not in the top half, so maybe he falls 2085 01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:33,439 Speaker 1: to them, but they've already got a corner that's very 2086 01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:35,400 Speaker 1: much like him and Levi Wallace. I don't know if 2087 01:46:35,400 --> 01:46:38,000 Speaker 1: you want two guys that run four six two on 2088 01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:42,040 Speaker 1: the stopwatchs playing corner for you. And then Jaylen Johnson 2089 01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:45,599 Speaker 1: you mentioned, and I like him a lot, But here 2090 01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:51,200 Speaker 1: is where the truncated pre draft process could potentially hurt 2091 01:46:51,240 --> 01:46:56,120 Speaker 1: a prospect. Jalen Johnson had three shoulder surgeries in his 2092 01:46:56,200 --> 01:46:59,479 Speaker 1: college career. One is a freshman, and then a second 2093 01:46:59,479 --> 01:47:02,000 Speaker 1: one because wasn't done right, and then a second one 2094 01:47:02,040 --> 01:47:06,240 Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, and then I believe is he the 2095 01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:08,759 Speaker 1: one with the ACL. No, it was his safety teammate 2096 01:47:08,800 --> 01:47:11,599 Speaker 1: at Utah there that at the ACL problem. But three 2097 01:47:11,640 --> 01:47:15,080 Speaker 1: shoulder surgeries is gonna convince a team. Hey, we got 2098 01:47:15,080 --> 01:47:16,920 Speaker 1: to get our own guys to take a look at him. 2099 01:47:17,240 --> 01:47:19,080 Speaker 1: And if you didn't get a chance to do that 2100 01:47:19,720 --> 01:47:21,720 Speaker 1: and he didn't go back for the medical recheck at 2101 01:47:21,720 --> 01:47:25,400 Speaker 1: the combine, that's a guy that's gonna lose money in 2102 01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 1: the draft. I mean, he's probably a second round pick 2103 01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:32,280 Speaker 1: on a normal draft, but in this situation, he's a 2104 01:47:32,320 --> 01:47:34,920 Speaker 1: guy that could fall because of his medical history. So 2105 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:38,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see how players like him 2106 01:47:39,720 --> 01:47:43,439 Speaker 1: may suffer because of you know how COVID nineteen has 2107 01:47:43,479 --> 01:47:46,439 Speaker 1: corrupted the pre draft process. Chris Brown Bills inside of 2108 01:47:46,479 --> 01:47:48,519 Speaker 1: Buffalo bills dot Com on the line with this. Chris 2109 01:47:48,520 --> 01:47:50,960 Speaker 1: wrote a piece on Buffalo bills dot Com about how 2110 01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:53,840 Speaker 1: the first round impacted what the Bills may do or 2111 01:47:53,880 --> 01:47:56,519 Speaker 1: may be able to do tonight. And you mentioned wide receivers, Chris, 2112 01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:59,800 Speaker 1: And it's a legitimate question that mister Tasker asked me 2113 01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:02,400 Speaker 1: last couple of days, you know why you drafted a 2114 01:48:02,400 --> 01:48:05,200 Speaker 1: wide receiver when your top three are already set. I 2115 01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:08,439 Speaker 1: acknowledge the top three are set for twenty twenty, but 2116 01:48:08,680 --> 01:48:10,760 Speaker 1: I think you drafted a wide receiver maybe with an 2117 01:48:10,760 --> 01:48:13,880 Speaker 1: eye in the future. What do you think? And yeah, 2118 01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:18,200 Speaker 1: six six wide receivers went first round last night. As 2119 01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:20,759 Speaker 1: you point out on your posts on Buffalo bills dot com, 2120 01:48:20,800 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 1: there's still four or five who would probably be okay 2121 01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:27,320 Speaker 1: picks in the first round, let alone the second tonight. Right, Yes, 2122 01:48:27,680 --> 01:48:30,640 Speaker 1: And I think you say, well, what would prompt the 2123 01:48:30,680 --> 01:48:33,439 Speaker 1: Bills to take a receiver? Well, if the value stinks 2124 01:48:33,479 --> 01:48:36,559 Speaker 1: at offensive tackle and the value is not that good 2125 01:48:36,560 --> 01:48:39,720 Speaker 1: at linebacker, and corners go off the board early on 2126 01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:44,040 Speaker 1: night two here tonight, a size wide receiver might be 2127 01:48:44,120 --> 01:48:46,519 Speaker 1: staring them in the face and sitting at the top 2128 01:48:46,560 --> 01:48:48,959 Speaker 1: of their board, far and away from any other prospect. 2129 01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:51,479 Speaker 1: It could happen. Same thing could happen at running back. 2130 01:48:51,680 --> 01:48:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean, there's probably gonna be two or Jonathan Taylor's 2131 01:48:54,040 --> 01:48:56,240 Speaker 1: going to go early. I mean, I love Jonathan Taylor. 2132 01:48:56,280 --> 01:48:58,240 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any way he gets down to 2133 01:48:58,320 --> 01:48:59,760 Speaker 1: fifty four. I don't think he gets out of the 2134 01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:03,320 Speaker 1: top forty quite Frankly, DeAndre Swift, who many people thinks 2135 01:49:03,320 --> 01:49:05,400 Speaker 1: the top running back in the draft, probably gonna go 2136 01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:07,760 Speaker 1: off the board pretty early too. But there should be 2137 01:49:07,840 --> 01:49:10,360 Speaker 1: running back and wide receiver value even as low as 2138 01:49:10,400 --> 01:49:12,680 Speaker 1: fifty four. And as I mentioned in the right up 2139 01:49:12,680 --> 01:49:15,639 Speaker 1: on Buffalo bills dot Com that your reference, Murph, You've 2140 01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:19,920 Speaker 1: got size wide receivers out the wazoo here. I mean, 2141 01:49:19,960 --> 01:49:24,360 Speaker 1: you've gotten probably nine guys with Day two grades that 2142 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:26,960 Speaker 1: stands six two and our two hundred and five pounds 2143 01:49:27,040 --> 01:49:29,640 Speaker 1: or more. And you know I'm in your boat with you. 2144 01:49:29,720 --> 01:49:32,040 Speaker 1: On Chase Claypool. I loved the kid, thought it was 2145 01:49:32,120 --> 01:49:34,760 Speaker 1: great at Notre Dame, and I liked him at the 2146 01:49:34,800 --> 01:49:39,320 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl too. But you've got other size wide receivers 2147 01:49:40,120 --> 01:49:42,599 Speaker 1: yet you can turn to. Do you like Denzel Mims 2148 01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:45,880 Speaker 1: who's six three and runs like a deer and runs 2149 01:49:45,920 --> 01:49:50,400 Speaker 1: four three five and makes plays on contested catches. I mean, 2150 01:49:50,400 --> 01:49:53,120 Speaker 1: there is a host of options that could be sitting 2151 01:49:53,120 --> 01:49:55,600 Speaker 1: in the Bill's lap at fifty four that may not 2152 01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:58,639 Speaker 1: address a primary mean now that you have Stefon Diggs, 2153 01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:01,800 Speaker 1: but you do not have outside of Duke Williams at 2154 01:50:01,840 --> 01:50:04,919 Speaker 1: the wide receiver position, so you could make an argument 2155 01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 1: for it if the value is right. Yeah, And I 2156 01:50:07,960 --> 01:50:11,040 Speaker 1: was gonna say there, while there is some question marks 2157 01:50:11,040 --> 01:50:14,640 Speaker 1: in this draft because there it was a compressed offseason, 2158 01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:17,320 Speaker 1: a compressed valuation process. You didn't get a chance to 2159 01:50:17,400 --> 01:50:20,240 Speaker 1: check out guys who have had surgery. You've got question 2160 01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:23,439 Speaker 1: marks about guys you hadn't didn't do medicals on them. 2161 01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:29,960 Speaker 1: There could also be a chance for a team who 2162 01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:32,280 Speaker 1: everybody thinks, well, we're taking a fire on this guy 2163 01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:34,759 Speaker 1: because we don't know. But if you if one team 2164 01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:37,840 Speaker 1: shies away from a guy because of his medical you 2165 01:50:37,960 --> 01:50:40,080 Speaker 1: take him and find out his medicals are fine after 2166 01:50:40,120 --> 01:50:43,000 Speaker 1: the fact, you might get value that you didn't know about, 2167 01:50:43,479 --> 01:50:46,800 Speaker 1: so do you. It's it's how you view the If 2168 01:50:46,840 --> 01:50:48,599 Speaker 1: the Bills are looking at some guys to say, well, 2169 01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:51,160 Speaker 1: this guy's got some potential, so does this guy. This 2170 01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:55,200 Speaker 1: guy's potential is off the charts, but he had ankle surgery, 2171 01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:57,519 Speaker 1: which you know what I mean. So they could get 2172 01:50:57,560 --> 01:51:01,360 Speaker 1: a really good talent because people passed on him for 2173 01:51:01,800 --> 01:51:04,160 Speaker 1: a reason they couldn't answer, and the reason didn't exist 2174 01:51:04,240 --> 01:51:06,280 Speaker 1: in the first place. You know what I'm saying I do. 2175 01:51:06,640 --> 01:51:10,120 Speaker 1: And really it comes down to what a team's philosophy 2176 01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 1: is in terms of risk. How much do you want 2177 01:51:12,880 --> 01:51:15,840 Speaker 1: to manage the risk. Maybe you're more apt to take 2178 01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:18,759 Speaker 1: a player like Jalen Johnson if you're deep at corner 2179 01:51:19,120 --> 01:51:21,599 Speaker 1: and you're set. You know, we've got guys that can 2180 01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:25,240 Speaker 1: play on our roster right now. You know, Jalen Johnson 2181 01:51:25,320 --> 01:51:27,479 Speaker 1: should not be this far down the board. It's only 2182 01:51:27,520 --> 01:51:30,840 Speaker 1: because of his medical do we get at least any 2183 01:51:30,960 --> 01:51:33,920 Speaker 1: scans of his shoulder to see what the situation is 2184 01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:37,160 Speaker 1: with the labram, what's going on there where the three 2185 01:51:37,160 --> 01:51:39,439 Speaker 1: surgeries all on the same side, where they on two 2186 01:51:39,479 --> 01:51:41,720 Speaker 1: different sides. Is this guy gonna be able to come 2187 01:51:41,760 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 1: up and tackle or we're gonna have to worry about 2188 01:51:43,320 --> 01:51:45,599 Speaker 1: losing it for twelve games if he makes the wrong 2189 01:51:45,680 --> 01:51:49,880 Speaker 1: tackle with his shoulder. These are all legitimate concerns. But 2190 01:51:49,960 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: maybe if you have five corners on your roster that 2191 01:51:52,160 --> 01:51:54,639 Speaker 1: you know can all play, maybe you let this guy 2192 01:51:54,680 --> 01:51:57,799 Speaker 1: spend it year to get healthy, put him on reserve pup, 2193 01:51:58,640 --> 01:52:00,800 Speaker 1: and you know, let him by a year in red 2194 01:52:00,800 --> 01:52:03,439 Speaker 1: shirt and do it that way. It's all a manner 2195 01:52:03,479 --> 01:52:05,840 Speaker 1: of how much you want to manage risk and how 2196 01:52:05,920 --> 01:52:08,800 Speaker 1: much risk you're willing to take. Because what's different here, 2197 01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:12,879 Speaker 1: Steve is some of these guys with medical are site unseen. 2198 01:52:13,320 --> 01:52:17,400 Speaker 1: You don't have updated medical, you haven't had your doctors 2199 01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:20,280 Speaker 1: get a chance to get their hands on them and 2200 01:52:20,360 --> 01:52:23,519 Speaker 1: give you their own opinion. The guys that you trust, 2201 01:52:23,760 --> 01:52:27,240 Speaker 1: you're trusting other doctors from parts unknown, And I don't 2202 01:52:27,280 --> 01:52:29,880 Speaker 1: know if that sits well with every NFL club. One 2203 01:52:29,920 --> 01:52:31,439 Speaker 1: of the things Murph and I just talked about in 2204 01:52:31,439 --> 01:52:35,519 Speaker 1: our last segment, Brownie, was we've kind of overlooked it 2205 01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:37,680 Speaker 1: because we're all talking about these new guys are to 2206 01:52:37,760 --> 01:52:40,280 Speaker 1: come in and help, and they signed these veteran players. 2207 01:52:40,280 --> 01:52:41,960 Speaker 1: But one of the things the Bill's staff, I think 2208 01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:44,599 Speaker 1: Murph and I believe have done a really good job 2209 01:52:44,640 --> 01:52:49,559 Speaker 1: of is developing young players. People are saying, well, you know, 2210 01:52:50,080 --> 01:52:52,800 Speaker 1: Jerry Hughes might be out the door. I've got a 2211 01:52:52,880 --> 01:52:56,880 Speaker 1: lot of optimism about Bam Johnson. They're young players on 2212 01:52:56,920 --> 01:52:59,040 Speaker 1: the squad who they think that I think are going 2213 01:52:59,080 --> 01:53:01,160 Speaker 1: to get developed in Some of these draft prospects may 2214 01:53:01,160 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 1: fit into that category. Murph, what did you say, Well, 2215 01:53:03,280 --> 01:53:05,280 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I want Chris to talk about this, 2216 01:53:05,320 --> 01:53:07,160 Speaker 1: because he's the one that you were on a piece 2217 01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:08,840 Speaker 1: about it or more than a year ago, Chris, and 2218 01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:12,160 Speaker 1: I think you're right. The player development is often overlooked. 2219 01:53:12,160 --> 01:53:16,840 Speaker 1: It's great today, tomorrow, Saturday, Tomorrow is Saturday, it'll be great, 2220 01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:19,000 Speaker 1: who gets the best draft, who wins the draft, But 2221 01:53:19,080 --> 01:53:21,840 Speaker 1: the unknown pieces player development, and you pointed out, and 2222 01:53:22,040 --> 01:53:24,080 Speaker 1: you were talking about it more than a year ago, Well, 2223 01:53:24,280 --> 01:53:25,880 Speaker 1: how important it is and what a good job this 2224 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:28,760 Speaker 1: coaching staff seems to do with player development, right, And 2225 01:53:28,840 --> 01:53:31,439 Speaker 1: I think that's why more often than not, at least 2226 01:53:31,439 --> 01:53:34,720 Speaker 1: in the last couple of drafts, you can find examples 2227 01:53:35,200 --> 01:53:41,400 Speaker 1: of where Brandon Bean leaned more towards elite athletic traits 2228 01:53:42,240 --> 01:53:49,920 Speaker 1: then maybe true positional singular position value. Tremaine Edmonds is 2229 01:53:49,920 --> 01:53:52,760 Speaker 1: a perfect example of that. Guy never played middle linebacker 2230 01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:55,880 Speaker 1: at Virginia Tech. He played on the outside, he played 2231 01:53:55,920 --> 01:53:58,040 Speaker 1: up on the line as a blitzer, never played a 2232 01:53:58,080 --> 01:54:02,280 Speaker 1: middle linebacker, but his athletic traits are off the charts, 2233 01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:06,800 Speaker 1: and they traded up to go get him because he 2234 01:54:06,920 --> 01:54:10,719 Speaker 1: was such an athletic anomaly. And they have so much 2235 01:54:10,720 --> 01:54:13,599 Speaker 1: trust in Bob Babbage as their linebackers coach. They say, 2236 01:54:13,720 --> 01:54:17,000 Speaker 1: we can take these elite athletic traits, drop him in 2237 01:54:17,080 --> 01:54:19,360 Speaker 1: the middle of our defense, and he's going to be 2238 01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:23,160 Speaker 1: an ascending and eventual Pro Bowl player for us. Because 2239 01:54:23,160 --> 01:54:25,920 Speaker 1: we believe in our player development and the kid's character 2240 01:54:26,040 --> 01:54:29,280 Speaker 1: is great and his athletic traits are ridiculous, We're moving 2241 01:54:29,320 --> 01:54:32,360 Speaker 1: up to get this guy. Josh Allen's another example. Matt 2242 01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:36,000 Speaker 1: Mulatto is an example fifth round kid. You know, a 2243 01:54:36,080 --> 01:54:40,400 Speaker 1: converted safety to linebacker. Okay, young at the position, may 2244 01:54:40,440 --> 01:54:42,800 Speaker 1: not know all the ins and outs of it just yet, 2245 01:54:43,280 --> 01:54:46,360 Speaker 1: but we again, we trust our coaching staff to develop him, 2246 01:54:46,520 --> 01:54:49,800 Speaker 1: and he's got the athletic traits to grow and play 2247 01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:53,280 Speaker 1: successfully and be productive in the NFL. So you know, 2248 01:54:53,320 --> 01:54:56,240 Speaker 1: if they get a chance to grab some elite athlete 2249 01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:59,160 Speaker 1: that was sliding but may not have the college resume, 2250 01:54:59,440 --> 01:55:02,120 Speaker 1: and they their coaching staff can make him a better player, 2251 01:55:02,440 --> 01:55:05,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna take the player. Hey, Chris, uh, I want 2252 01:55:05,680 --> 01:55:07,160 Speaker 1: to give you a chance. We gotta get moving here. 2253 01:55:07,160 --> 01:55:10,640 Speaker 1: But Steve and I, when the show began, each spit 2254 01:55:10,680 --> 01:55:13,839 Speaker 1: out two names of guys we think the Bills will 2255 01:55:13,960 --> 01:55:15,640 Speaker 1: end up with by the end of the night. Tonight, 2256 01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:19,200 Speaker 1: I put yeah, I put. My two names were Chase 2257 01:55:19,280 --> 01:55:22,320 Speaker 1: Claypool in the cornerback Bryce Allen from Virginia. Steve, you 2258 01:55:22,320 --> 01:55:25,040 Speaker 1: had a couple of corners, right, Steve, Trevon dig Treyvon 2259 01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:30,120 Speaker 1: Diggs and Cameron Dancer Ameron Danzer, So spit out two 2260 01:55:30,200 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 1: names you think the Bills could wind up with your 2261 01:55:32,120 --> 01:55:35,840 Speaker 1: best guests right now? A right, the best guests. You 2262 01:55:35,880 --> 01:55:38,000 Speaker 1: can use my name, Stu if you want to. Yeah, 2263 01:55:38,040 --> 01:55:41,640 Speaker 1: I mean I really am, I really am partial to Claypool. Um. 2264 01:55:42,080 --> 01:55:44,600 Speaker 1: I think he fits those elite athletic traits that we're 2265 01:55:44,640 --> 01:55:47,960 Speaker 1: talking about. UM, and I think what he does on 2266 01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:51,080 Speaker 1: special teams puts him on a football field even if 2267 01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:53,080 Speaker 1: he's not in your top three receivers, so you can 2268 01:55:53,160 --> 01:55:56,000 Speaker 1: argue for his value there. And then the second one, 2269 01:55:56,520 --> 01:55:58,880 Speaker 1: I'm in the same boat as Greg Cosell. I love 2270 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:01,920 Speaker 1: Jabari Zaniga and I think he could be there at 2271 01:56:01,920 --> 01:56:04,800 Speaker 1: eighty six because he doesn't have a fat college resume, 2272 01:56:05,160 --> 01:56:07,880 Speaker 1: but you I watched three of his games and he 2273 01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:10,640 Speaker 1: is so quick off the ball. And if there's one 2274 01:56:10,680 --> 01:56:13,520 Speaker 1: thing that the Bills need, they need a youth player 2275 01:56:13,720 --> 01:56:16,960 Speaker 1: off the edge who can bend the corner and is 2276 01:56:17,400 --> 01:56:21,400 Speaker 1: explosive and that's what Zuniga is to me. I think 2277 01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:25,400 Speaker 1: he's vastly underrated because again he doesn't have the college 2278 01:56:25,440 --> 01:56:28,280 Speaker 1: tape to back it up, but elite athletic traits. I 2279 01:56:28,280 --> 01:56:30,960 Speaker 1: think he's the kind of player that would fit what 2280 01:56:31,040 --> 01:56:33,120 Speaker 1: the Bills do very well, and they need extra speed 2281 01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:35,760 Speaker 1: off the edge. All right, So, Chris, you and Maddie 2282 01:56:35,920 --> 01:56:38,440 Speaker 1: the Bill's draft preview six thirty tonight on all our 2283 01:56:38,440 --> 01:56:41,880 Speaker 1: social media platforms.

When we come back. We're gonna 2297 01:57:15,160 --> 01:57:17,240 Speaker 1: talk to a man who has a role to play 2298 01:57:17,320 --> 01:57:19,760 Speaker 1: in the Bill's first selection tonight. We'll talk to him 2299 01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:22,400 Speaker 1: when we come back. One Bill's Live presented by Kalada Health, 2300 01:57:22,560 --> 01:57:25,440 Speaker 1: coming to you from radio only from our homes. This 2301 01:57:25,480 --> 01:57:38,160 Speaker 1: is Buffalo Bills Radio one, presented by Colada Heal. We 2302 01:57:38,200 --> 01:57:40,920 Speaker 1: got fall mines open eight O three five fifty filly 2303 01:57:40,920 --> 01:57:43,920 Speaker 1: three one eight eight five fifty two five fifty. We've 2304 01:57:43,960 --> 01:57:45,560 Speaker 1: got a few minutes left on the show here too. 2305 01:57:45,840 --> 01:57:49,720 Speaker 1: Joe on the line from Buffalo, Go ahead, Joe. Hey, guys, 2306 01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:52,920 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get your thoughts on um, maybe 2307 01:57:52,960 --> 01:57:55,480 Speaker 1: taking the guy like Davidson in the stock in. You know, 2308 01:57:55,680 --> 01:57:59,320 Speaker 1: he's technically an edge rusher, but he could also play inside. 2309 01:58:00,000 --> 01:58:02,800 Speaker 1: I just think like his versatility might you know, might 2310 01:58:02,840 --> 01:58:05,520 Speaker 1: be beneficial for the Bills on the up front of 2311 01:58:06,480 --> 01:58:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, up front of them on the defense. Yeah. 2312 01:58:09,040 --> 01:58:11,160 Speaker 1: I don't know much about him. I know he's from Auburn, right, 2313 01:58:11,160 --> 01:58:15,200 Speaker 1: the Auburn defensive lineman. Right, Yeah, he can the big guy. 2314 01:58:15,240 --> 01:58:18,880 Speaker 1: I think you're onto something with the versatility, because they'd 2315 01:58:18,960 --> 01:58:20,879 Speaker 1: like guys who can play a couple of different positions, 2316 01:58:20,960 --> 01:58:24,000 Speaker 1: especially on defense, and they will rotate them through. I'm 2317 01:58:24,080 --> 01:58:25,760 Speaker 1: sure he would be a prospect. I think they'd have 2318 01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:28,360 Speaker 1: to be aware of and maybe take a look at Steve. Yeah, 2319 01:58:28,400 --> 01:58:30,880 Speaker 1: you're right. He's a three hundred pound guy who plays 2320 01:58:30,920 --> 01:58:34,920 Speaker 1: on the end. That's big. You know, that's heavy, but 2321 01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:37,200 Speaker 1: he's you know, he sets a hard edge against the run. 2322 01:58:37,240 --> 01:58:39,120 Speaker 1: I mean they say, you know, he's a pretty good player, 2323 01:58:39,440 --> 01:58:42,640 Speaker 1: so it'll be interesting to see. But you're right, he 2324 01:58:42,680 --> 01:58:44,720 Speaker 1: does make some sense because they do want a guy 2325 01:58:44,760 --> 01:58:47,760 Speaker 1: that can go down inside and three hundred pounds Davidson 2326 01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:50,560 Speaker 1: will be able to do that. And plus, remember the 2327 01:58:50,600 --> 01:58:53,840 Speaker 1: last guy they drafted in Ed Oliver is only two 2328 01:58:53,880 --> 01:58:59,320 Speaker 1: eighty five. He's you know, light. Three hundred is a 2329 01:58:59,320 --> 01:59:02,800 Speaker 1: different story, and a guy like Marlon Davidson would give 2330 01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 1: him some off the edge and if he's got some 2331 01:59:05,240 --> 01:59:07,480 Speaker 1: pass rushing Billies, I don't know how good he bends 2332 01:59:07,520 --> 01:59:10,680 Speaker 1: the corner, but certainly he's a big enough body and 2333 01:59:10,760 --> 01:59:13,520 Speaker 1: he's versatile enough to do that. Thanks you recall away 2334 01:59:13,520 --> 01:59:15,400 Speaker 1: a few minutes left for calls. Hey, we talked about 2335 01:59:15,400 --> 01:59:17,320 Speaker 1: it for a couple of weeks. Here Bill's GM Brandon 2336 01:59:17,400 --> 01:59:20,240 Speaker 1: Bean while he prepared for the draft also stepped up 2337 01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:23,320 Speaker 1: to the plate, donated money to help relief efforts. Teamed 2338 01:59:23,400 --> 01:59:25,200 Speaker 1: up with the United Way of Buffalo and Erie County 2339 01:59:25,240 --> 01:59:28,720 Speaker 1: to increase awareness for the recently established Western New York 2340 01:59:28,840 --> 01:59:31,320 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen Community Response Fund. And one of the things 2341 01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:34,560 Speaker 1: Brandon Brandon Bean did was set up a contest and 2342 01:59:34,560 --> 01:59:38,240 Speaker 1: they randomly picked fan winners. People who donated to the 2343 01:59:40,320 --> 01:59:44,839 Speaker 1: cause got one of seven special gifts. They raised seventy 2344 01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:47,880 Speaker 1: seven thousand dollars in this too. It wasn't they weren't 2345 01:59:47,880 --> 01:59:51,720 Speaker 1: fooling around. The contests ended last Friday, and they're ready 2346 01:59:51,760 --> 01:59:54,200 Speaker 1: to award one of the prizes today. We have the 2347 01:59:54,240 --> 01:59:56,840 Speaker 1: winner of it on the line.

Well, I'll tell you 2370 02:01:16,000 --> 02:01:19,120 Speaker 1: exact truth. I mean, I'd seen some news articles and 2371 02:01:19,840 --> 02:01:23,320 Speaker 1: you know, radio and TV, and people were saying that 2372 02:01:23,440 --> 02:01:28,720 Speaker 1: certain disadvantaged communities were really suffering disproportionately from COVID and 2373 02:01:28,760 --> 02:01:30,880 Speaker 1: I thought, hmm, I wonder, you know, if there's anything 2374 02:01:30,920 --> 02:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I can do. And then I filed my taxes on 2375 02:01:33,600 --> 02:01:35,560 Speaker 1: the fifteenth and realized I was going to get a 2376 02:01:35,600 --> 02:01:39,400 Speaker 1: refund and said, you know, I don't really need the 2377 02:01:39,480 --> 02:01:43,200 Speaker 1: money now, but somebody must, So what can I do? 2378 02:01:43,280 --> 02:01:45,960 Speaker 1: And then I thought of the United Way, So I 2379 02:01:46,080 --> 02:01:47,879 Speaker 1: you know, I went over to see how to donate 2380 02:01:48,520 --> 02:01:51,320 Speaker 1: and the next thing I know, there's this, uh, you know, 2381 02:01:51,480 --> 02:01:53,680 Speaker 1: way to donate to this special fund. I said, Wow, 2382 02:01:53,680 --> 02:01:56,440 Speaker 1: this is exactly what I was looking for. This is 2383 02:01:56,560 --> 02:01:59,960 Speaker 1: really easy, and so I made a donation and then, 2384 02:02:00,160 --> 02:02:02,360 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't think much more about it, and 2385 02:02:02,400 --> 02:02:04,280 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, I got the calf in 2386 02:02:04,320 --> 02:02:07,000 Speaker 1: the United the Way. Hey, you won the most coveted prize. 2387 02:02:07,440 --> 02:02:11,040 Speaker 1: You get to stand on the draft pick.

What's your favorite part of it of of 2392 02:02:25,480 --> 02:02:28,320 Speaker 1: listening on the radio? Um, yeah, well, I gotta tell 2393 02:02:28,320 --> 02:02:31,960 Speaker 1: you the truth. The fact that you radio guys seem 2394 02:02:32,000 --> 02:02:34,600 Speaker 1: to know when there's a flag on the play, you 2395 02:02:34,600 --> 02:02:37,240 Speaker 1: know why there's a flag on the play. You know, 2396 02:02:37,600 --> 02:02:40,360 Speaker 1: if there's a stoppage, what happened or who actually did what? 2397 02:02:40,800 --> 02:02:43,640 Speaker 1: It's just insane on TV. Uh you know, there are 2398 02:02:43,640 --> 02:02:46,160 Speaker 1: these long pauses like, well, there's been a flag, we're 2399 02:02:46,200 --> 02:02:52,960 Speaker 1: not sure why. Looks turn on the radio. They'll know anyway. 2400 02:02:53,200 --> 02:02:54,920 Speaker 1: So how's it gonna work tonight, Peter, what are you 2401 02:02:54,920 --> 02:02:59,280 Speaker 1: gonna do? Um? Well, apparently, uh well, the draft starts 2402 02:02:59,320 --> 02:03:01,760 Speaker 1: tonight at seven. Last night, it was at eight tonight, 2403 02:03:01,760 --> 02:03:03,280 Speaker 1: it's at seven because they got to go to two 2404 02:03:03,360 --> 02:03:08,360 Speaker 1: rounds and then, uh Brandon beans said that he thinks 2405 02:03:08,360 --> 02:03:10,920 Speaker 1: that the bills will you know, I'll be on the 2406 02:03:10,920 --> 02:03:15,240 Speaker 1: clock somewhere in the eight o'clock hour. Um, and uh 2407 02:03:15,400 --> 02:03:18,480 Speaker 1: so I'm going to be there with him, uh you know, 2408 02:03:18,560 --> 02:03:21,640 Speaker 1: on zoom. So uh you know, he'll be in his 2409 02:03:21,720 --> 02:03:23,880 Speaker 1: office or at home, I guess, and I'll be you know, 2410 02:03:23,960 --> 02:03:28,360 Speaker 1: joining him on zoom and uh um yeah, pretty much 2411 02:03:28,760 --> 02:03:30,839 Speaker 1: that said, I don't think he's going to be asking 2412 02:03:30,880 --> 02:03:33,880 Speaker 1: me for any advice. What's gonna say? What if what 2413 02:03:33,960 --> 02:03:36,040 Speaker 1: if you don't like who Brandon wants to pick? What 2414 02:03:36,120 --> 02:03:38,000 Speaker 1: if he's picking an offensive lineman, you'd go to have 2415 02:03:38,040 --> 02:03:39,720 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. I think you earned the right to 2416 02:03:39,840 --> 02:03:46,720 Speaker 1: jump in and say no, no, no, no, no, you 2417 02:03:46,840 --> 02:03:49,440 Speaker 1: got a golden opportunity to put your stamp on Buffalo 2418 02:03:49,520 --> 02:03:53,560 Speaker 1: Bill's history tonight. Buffalo Bill's history. Right, yeah, well I know, 2419 02:03:53,760 --> 02:03:56,760 Speaker 1: and there and there are a couple of wide receivers left. 2420 02:03:56,800 --> 02:03:58,840 Speaker 1: But hey, we just got Stefan Dix.

It's Buffalo history, 2454 02:05:34,800 --> 02:05:37,840 Speaker 1: yea Buffalo sports history, and it happens every year. I 2455 02:05:38,720 --> 02:05:41,080 Speaker 1: gotta imagine too, if you're a fan like Peter or 2456 02:05:41,120 --> 02:05:43,520 Speaker 1: any Bills fan, if you don't, if you got a 2457 02:05:43,600 --> 02:05:46,240 Speaker 1: favorite in mind, you would maybe wouldn't do it. Would 2458 02:05:46,240 --> 02:05:48,280 Speaker 1: you'd be tempted to say, no, Brandon, let's let's go 2459 02:05:48,400 --> 02:05:50,760 Speaker 1: for Chase Clay come up and maybe you'd take a 2460 02:05:50,760 --> 02:05:52,560 Speaker 1: minute or two to talk him into your pick. No, 2461 02:05:52,720 --> 02:05:54,880 Speaker 1: wouldn't you try it? Yeah?

It is One Bill's Live presented by Klaida Health, 2474 02:06:23,760 --> 02:06:26,320 Speaker 1: coming here from home today radio coverage only. This is 2475 02:06:26,360 --> 02:06:41,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radioday. So what have we learned from today's show? 2476 02:06:41,120 --> 02:06:43,960 Speaker 1: Brought to you by Skyworks, the official construction equipment rental 2477 02:06:44,040 --> 02:06:46,560 Speaker 1: company in the Buffalo Bills. We had Great Cosell on 2478 02:06:46,720 --> 02:06:48,560 Speaker 1: the show back in the one o'clock hour. He is 2479 02:06:49,080 --> 02:06:52,440 Speaker 1: the executive producer in analysts for NFL Matchup on ESPN, 2480 02:06:52,560 --> 02:06:56,040 Speaker 1: senior producer at NFL Films. Gregg's talked about Jonathan Taylor, 2481 02:06:56,080 --> 02:06:58,560 Speaker 1: the running back out of Wisconsin for weeks now on 2482 02:06:58,720 --> 02:07:00,960 Speaker 1: the show and with all that running back talent left 2483 02:07:01,000 --> 02:07:03,320 Speaker 1: on the board at started today's second round, he talked 2484 02:07:03,320 --> 02:07:05,440 Speaker 1: about how Taylor could be it might be a good 2485 02:07:05,480 --> 02:07:08,560 Speaker 1: fit for the Buffalo building. To me, Jonathan Taylor is 2486 02:07:08,600 --> 02:07:10,600 Speaker 1: a true foundation back. He's not a back you give 2487 02:07:10,640 --> 02:07:13,640 Speaker 1: the ball to seventy times a game. I think he's 2488 02:07:13,680 --> 02:07:16,760 Speaker 1: a true back that you can give it to eighteen 2489 02:07:16,880 --> 02:07:19,640 Speaker 1: nineteen times a game and he's your foundation. I love 2490 02:07:19,720 --> 02:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Jonathan Taller. I think he's the best runner in this 2491 02:07:21,920 --> 02:07:24,720 Speaker 1: draft class. I understand what the Chiefs did last night. 2492 02:07:24,880 --> 02:07:26,680 Speaker 1: We know why they did that because of the style 2493 02:07:26,720 --> 02:07:29,480 Speaker 1: of offense they play. Because most of these picks are 2494 02:07:29,520 --> 02:07:32,880 Speaker 1: team and scheme specific. Very few players are scheme transcendent. 2495 02:07:33,720 --> 02:07:35,960 Speaker 1: But I think Taylor is the kind of back that 2496 02:07:36,120 --> 02:07:39,080 Speaker 1: you can build your offense around. And I think quite honestly, 2497 02:07:39,320 --> 02:07:43,680 Speaker 1: the Bills will move in that direction. They might they 2498 02:07:43,760 --> 02:07:46,920 Speaker 1: might go to a running back. Steve when you were playing, Steve, yes, 2499 02:07:47,160 --> 02:07:49,480 Speaker 1: did you know did you have a sense of what 2500 02:07:49,640 --> 02:07:51,720 Speaker 1: might happen on draft game? And you guys would talk 2501 02:07:51,800 --> 02:07:54,200 Speaker 1: then to John Butler and Bill Pauline and that group, 2502 02:07:54,480 --> 02:07:57,200 Speaker 1: all those personnel guys, did you ever know who they 2503 02:07:57,240 --> 02:08:00,400 Speaker 1: were going to pay? No? No, not at all, particularly 2504 02:08:00,440 --> 02:08:02,320 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl years when we were drafting, you know, 2505 02:08:02,600 --> 02:08:05,920 Speaker 1: in the last part of the draft, had no idea. 2506 02:08:06,320 --> 02:08:08,400 Speaker 1: I had no idea who Don Beebe was when they 2507 02:08:08,480 --> 02:08:10,720 Speaker 1: took him. I had no idea who Thurman Thomas was. 2508 02:08:12,240 --> 02:08:14,840 Speaker 1: Shane Conlin, no idea. You know, you can go down 2509 02:08:14,880 --> 02:08:18,400 Speaker 1: the list. I know this, when they traded for Cornelius Bennett, 2510 02:08:18,440 --> 02:08:20,960 Speaker 1: I knew who that guy was. Yeah, yeah, you know 2511 02:08:21,000 --> 02:08:23,920 Speaker 1: what I mean. So it's very few guys that you say, 2512 02:08:23,920 --> 02:08:25,920 Speaker 1: oh okay, you know, you kind of say okay. You know, 2513 02:08:26,560 --> 02:08:29,120 Speaker 1: over the years they drafted, you know, guys like Russell Copeland, 2514 02:08:29,240 --> 02:08:34,240 Speaker 1: Al Edwards wide receivers in my position that you know 2515 02:08:34,680 --> 02:08:37,400 Speaker 1: that gets your attention, but you know he's still you know, 2516 02:08:37,480 --> 02:08:40,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot that goes into making a football team. So, yeah, no, 2517 02:08:40,920 --> 02:08:43,440 Speaker 1: I was. You'd be surprised at how little players pay 2518 02:08:43,480 --> 02:08:46,280 Speaker 1: attention to it just just because of the spectacle, because 2519 02:08:46,280 --> 02:08:48,120 Speaker 1: it's a show, because of the league. You kind of 2520 02:08:48,160 --> 02:08:51,520 Speaker 1: got to. But they don't get into players. I don't think. Yeah, 2521 02:08:51,920 --> 02:08:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think teams like the Bills and most 2522 02:08:55,040 --> 02:08:58,400 Speaker 1: teams are much more close mouthed about their draft plans 2523 02:08:58,480 --> 02:09:00,440 Speaker 1: now than they ever had been. I I was thinking 2524 02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:02,920 Speaker 1: about this the last time I remember really having a 2525 02:09:03,040 --> 02:09:05,600 Speaker 1: bead on who the Bills we're gonna get. Um, I'm 2526 02:09:05,600 --> 02:09:07,840 Speaker 1: gonna look up what year it was. But when Jeffrey Burris, 2527 02:09:07,960 --> 02:09:10,280 Speaker 1: cornerback Notre Dame was the Bills first round and pick, 2528 02:09:10,720 --> 02:09:12,800 Speaker 1: somebody told me, and I knew. I was at a 2529 02:09:12,880 --> 02:09:16,240 Speaker 1: hockey game, believe it or not, that night in the 2530 02:09:16,400 --> 02:09:18,960 Speaker 1: draft must have been a Sunday. I don't know. No, 2531 02:09:19,080 --> 02:09:21,560 Speaker 1: the draft was like the following Thursday or whatever. Somebody says, 2532 02:09:21,560 --> 02:09:23,760 Speaker 1: who the Bill's gonna pick, and I said, Jeffrey Burrus, quarterback, 2533 02:09:23,840 --> 02:09:26,320 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. That's twenty years ago. Nobody gives it up 2534 02:09:26,360 --> 02:09:29,120 Speaker 1: like that anymore, you know what I mean? Yeah, nobody 2535 02:09:29,160 --> 02:09:31,400 Speaker 1: tells you anymore when you know like that. I don't 2536 02:09:31,440 --> 02:09:34,880 Speaker 1: blame them. What never happened never happens. And yeah, the 2537 02:09:34,960 --> 02:09:38,400 Speaker 1: draft picks are too valuable, you know. They can't let 2538 02:09:38,560 --> 02:09:41,680 Speaker 1: take a chance on losing a competitive advantage on one 2539 02:09:41,720 --> 02:09:43,880 Speaker 1: of the foundational pieces of your club, even if it 2540 02:09:44,040 --> 02:09:48,480 Speaker 1: is even for the Bills this year. You you've got God, 2541 02:09:48,640 --> 02:09:50,720 Speaker 1: you you've got needs, you want to You're trying to 2542 02:09:50,720 --> 02:09:53,640 Speaker 1: build a club. You don't want to let anybody know 2543 02:09:54,000 --> 02:09:55,920 Speaker 1: what your plans are until they until you have to 2544 02:09:55,960 --> 02:09:58,280 Speaker 1: tell them on draft day. So I'm with you. It's 2545 02:09:58,360 --> 02:10:01,160 Speaker 1: everything's changed a little more tight than it used to be, 2546 02:10:01,320 --> 02:10:04,960 Speaker 1: and it's for good reason. Brus was ninety four, first 2547 02:10:05,040 --> 02:10:08,520 Speaker 1: round picking ninety four, So Steve de Recap, we both 2548 02:10:08,680 --> 02:10:10,440 Speaker 1: you know, we don't know, let's say that, and I 2549 02:10:10,440 --> 02:10:12,240 Speaker 1: don't think we really have a good lead on who 2550 02:10:12,280 --> 02:10:14,120 Speaker 1: the Bills are going to draft. But we have guys 2551 02:10:14,160 --> 02:10:16,880 Speaker 1: who we would like to see the Bills come away 2552 02:10:16,920 --> 02:10:19,160 Speaker 1: with and guys who we hope are you know, Buffalo 2553 02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:21,400 Speaker 1: Bill's property. At the end of the night, I mentioned 2554 02:10:21,520 --> 02:10:24,680 Speaker 1: Chase Claypool, Notre Dame wide receiver, who could be there 2555 02:10:24,720 --> 02:10:26,680 Speaker 1: at fifty four. They may have to make a move up, 2556 02:10:26,720 --> 02:10:29,160 Speaker 1: but maybe not. There's so many other good receivers. I 2557 02:10:29,400 --> 02:10:31,960 Speaker 1: just think Claypool would fill a kind of a need. 2558 02:10:32,000 --> 02:10:34,400 Speaker 1: I like what Brownie said a moment ago too about 2559 02:10:34,560 --> 02:10:36,480 Speaker 1: how we would jump right in on special teams. That's 2560 02:10:36,520 --> 02:10:38,840 Speaker 1: good to hear, and I think he and Bryce allan 2561 02:10:38,920 --> 02:10:42,840 Speaker 1: cornerback from Virginia who lost much of his last year 2562 02:10:42,880 --> 02:10:45,560 Speaker 1: at Virginia with injury and ankle injury. I think those 2563 02:10:45,600 --> 02:10:47,640 Speaker 1: would be really good, solid editions for the Bills. What 2564 02:10:47,720 --> 02:10:49,360 Speaker 1: do you have in mind, Steve Well, I like I 2565 02:10:49,560 --> 02:10:52,200 Speaker 1: think if you think about it, is there's a possibility 2566 02:10:52,280 --> 02:10:55,959 Speaker 1: that a guy as good as Trayvon Diggs, Cameron Dancelers 2567 02:10:56,040 --> 02:10:58,120 Speaker 1: one of the top prospects of those things continue to 2568 02:10:58,200 --> 02:11:01,040 Speaker 1: fall because they've been through the first round already and 2569 02:11:01,240 --> 02:11:04,800 Speaker 1: teams and there was a run of six corners already 2570 02:11:04,840 --> 02:11:07,640 Speaker 1: in the first round, So those teams that are looking 2571 02:11:07,680 --> 02:11:10,720 Speaker 1: for a corner have already filled that spot. They're not 2572 02:11:10,760 --> 02:11:12,960 Speaker 1: gonna They've got other needs they're gonna fill at that spot. 2573 02:11:13,080 --> 02:11:15,440 Speaker 1: So's it kind of takes a lot of teams off 2574 02:11:16,120 --> 02:11:19,320 Speaker 1: the hook or out of the mix for getting another one. 2575 02:11:19,480 --> 02:11:21,640 Speaker 1: So you'd think maybe those guys might fall a little 2576 02:11:21,680 --> 02:11:24,680 Speaker 1: further even now than they would have than we expected 2577 02:11:24,720 --> 02:11:27,080 Speaker 1: them too at corners, So that may be a possibility 2578 02:11:27,120 --> 02:11:29,280 Speaker 1: for a guy as good as Digs to get to 2579 02:11:29,360 --> 02:11:32,160 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills at fifty four. But then again, you 2580 02:11:32,240 --> 02:11:34,680 Speaker 1: and I both kind of forgot about talking about it today. 2581 02:11:35,000 --> 02:11:36,960 Speaker 1: There's every chance the Bills jump up to the number 2582 02:11:37,000 --> 02:11:39,240 Speaker 1: forty spot or the forty two spot or the thirty 2583 02:11:39,280 --> 02:11:41,360 Speaker 1: eight spots, something like that, and getting one of those guys. 2584 02:11:41,600 --> 02:11:44,040 Speaker 1: One more thing and a real quick thing. Here's how 2585 02:11:44,080 --> 02:11:46,760 Speaker 1: far I believe most of us have come in terms 2586 02:11:46,800 --> 02:11:50,000 Speaker 1: of Bills fans. Yeah, the Dolphins had a big day yesterday, 2587 02:11:50,040 --> 02:11:52,520 Speaker 1: a good day last night, right, and they got potential 2588 02:11:52,640 --> 02:11:55,960 Speaker 1: franchise quarterback too, Otago Boola and I got a text 2589 02:11:56,000 --> 02:11:58,280 Speaker 1: from a friend of mine last night, Oh, Man, Dolphins 2590 02:11:58,360 --> 02:12:01,160 Speaker 1: get their quarterback. This is gonna be trouble. And I thought, oh, 2591 02:12:01,200 --> 02:12:03,160 Speaker 1: it's not. Bills have their quarterback and they've got a 2592 02:12:03,200 --> 02:12:05,640 Speaker 1: great defense. And I think it's fun to have a 2593 02:12:06,120 --> 02:12:08,000 Speaker 1: they have good players in your division you have to 2594 02:12:08,160 --> 02:12:10,040 Speaker 1: face twice. I think that's kind of fun. And I 2595 02:12:10,120 --> 02:12:11,920 Speaker 1: feel that way because I think the Bills are pretty good. 2596 02:12:11,960 --> 02:12:15,880 Speaker 1: Steve and Bills and Dolphins and Jets alike, A lot 2597 02:12:15,960 --> 02:12:19,560 Speaker 1: of these players, they aren't gonna be any good. Murph. 2598 02:12:19,760 --> 02:12:22,440 Speaker 1: That's right. They're not gonna be any good. They're not 2599 02:12:22,520 --> 02:12:26,960 Speaker 1: gonna be transformational players. They're gonna be okay. Now, they'll 2600 02:12:26,960 --> 02:12:29,040 Speaker 1: always look shiny and new when you pull them off 2601 02:12:29,080 --> 02:12:31,760 Speaker 1: the shelf in the store, but you get them home 2602 02:12:31,800 --> 02:12:35,880 Speaker 1: and the warranties not real good. You know. Yeah, some 2603 02:12:35,960 --> 02:12:38,240 Speaker 1: of them are gonna be great, no question. Some of 2604 02:12:38,240 --> 02:12:39,840 Speaker 1: them are gonna be players you're gonna look at for 2605 02:12:39,880 --> 02:12:41,680 Speaker 1: a decade maybe, But there's gonna be a lot of 2606 02:12:41,760 --> 02:12:43,560 Speaker 1: them that you think, Wow, they're gonna be really good 2607 02:12:43,600 --> 02:12:46,480 Speaker 1: with that guy, and it's not gonna happen. It's gonna 2608 02:12:46,480 --> 02:12:49,160 Speaker 1: happen for the Bills and against the Bills, So let's 2609 02:12:49,160 --> 02:12:53,280 Speaker 1: just sit tight and wait.
