WEBVTT - The 2017 Pre-Draft Show 0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:04.680 The NFL draft is returning to its birthplace. He's got 0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:06.560 a chance to be as go to class that running 0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:08.399 back is with James Royce with that two out of 0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:10.200 eight row. When you watch him on tape, you just 0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:12.360 don't see separation. You could be looking at the second 0:00:12.400 --> 0:00:14.560 or third best player overall at He's the real, real 0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:21.160 intriguing guy. He's definitely an ascending guy. My top two 0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:24.280 players this year freaks. His vision is run tempo, his patience, 0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:27.240 He's a game tea to play in and play out crime. 0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:29.560 There's not a running back in today's NFL where you 0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:32.000 can really truly compare him to. You want to move 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:34.159 back and move back to get down. I think we're 0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:36.040 gonna see a quarterbacks froll eye in this draft. You 0:00:36.120 --> 0:00:37.960 go that time with one of the guys, where do 0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:39.919 you kind of wait? Can believe you can trade down 0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:42.320 fact and to be where he is here the top 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:44.920 guy and maybe his dreak A bayone is the biggest 0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:55.000 strongest back. This guy out him. Finally, welcome to the 0:00:55.040 --> 0:00:58.640 two thousand seventeen New York Jets Draft Show. We're brought 0:00:58.680 --> 0:01:02.480 to you today. I m SEU, the Official Credit Union 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:06.840 of the New York Jets. We're here at MetLife Stadium 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:10.319 the fifty yard line. In fact, on stage, I'm joined 0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:15.320 by Rich Sermonello and the Mad Backer himself, Bart Scott 0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:19.679 in the building. Thousands of season ticket holders coming in 0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:24.240 here to MetLife Stadium. The annual Jets Draft Party, two 0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:29.600 thousand seventeen Draft is almost upon us. Guys got to 0:01:29.640 --> 0:01:32.360 be excited right now because the Jets are gonna get 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:35.240 better in a couple of hours. Yeah. I think the 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:38.720 Jets are gonna get much better with the number six pick. 0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:41.199 I don't think there's any question about that. We've gone 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.800 through this process now for the past three months, so 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.440 I think everybody's eager to see, not just the Jets, 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.600 but all thirty two teams in which directions do they help. 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.320 I think in the current you know, collective bargaining agreement 0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:54.640 with how gods are slotted now, I think you're going 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:56.919 to see a lot of activity early in this draft, 0:01:56.920 --> 0:01:59.120 a lot of trades and every since they go into 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:01.480 this new format the players are slotted. You know, it's 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.320 always been exciting to see who's gonna move up, who's 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:07.280 going to who's going to mortgage the future? You know, 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.480 for right now, who's gonna try and move up from 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.680 the twenties up to the top five. And I think 0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.280 the Jets are in prime position to want either to 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:16.680 move up or move down, but also they can get 0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:21.000 them a Blues player right now, all right. Mike mccagnet 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:24.880 has said he is open for business if teams want 0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.240 to move up, give the Jets the call, because he 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:34.240 wants that's the stockpile draft picks in a very deep class. 0:02:34.400 --> 0:02:37.440 The Jets are sitting there at six. We know the 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:41.880 Cleveland Browns hold the cards early because they had the 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:46.560 number one overall selection in the two thousand seventeen NFL draft. 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:49.600 A lot of noise today, gentlemen, as far as who 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:53.000 are the Browns going to go with Myles Garrett, the 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:55.560 pass rusher out of Texas Day and I'm or the 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:59.720 quarterback for North Carolina Mitch Drabinsky Bart, it seems like 0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:04.080 out the late reports out of Cleveland are that it's 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.600 gonna be Miles Garrett. Well, I think that I think 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:09.160 the Cleveland Browns are still a ways away from being 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:11.280 a competitive football team right now. You have to get 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:13.799 the best players, and I think if you ask collectively 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.880 the scouts around around the league, they're going to say 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.880 that Miles Garrett is the best prospect. He's as you 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.040 can never say I can't miss talent, But I don't 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.760 think you overreach for a quarterback that's early, especially when 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:27.320 you have three that's kind of on the same playing field. 0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:29.360 You can move down if you don't get your biscuity. 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:31.240 You can get you know Watson and be happy with 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:33.680 that as well. You know, you talk about two teams 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.680 that have a lot of flexibility. You talk about the 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.240 Cleveland Browns, you talk about the Tennessee Titans, both of 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:40.440 path two picks in the first round. I think you 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.840 get Miles Garrett and then you're open for business. You 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.240 try and get to whoever you have talent at your 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:48.040 top rated quarterback later in the round. So Rich, what 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:51.240 do you think about that? To the Browns grab Garrett 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:55.880 and then try to package that twelve overall selection and 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:59.200 move up to ensure themselves that your biscuity. I think 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.400 that makes the moves since at this point, if there's 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.560 if there's one player that he's can miss, it has 0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:07.840 to be Miles Garrett. I know there are some questions 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:11.839 about maybe he doesn't have passion for football, but when 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:16.720 you look at that combination of size, speed, tenacity. Everyone 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:20.040 I've ever talked to said, he's a high football character guy, 0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:23.840 so he's gonna bring it in practice. I think he 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.760 loves the sport. I think he's the closest thing to 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.599 a short thing. And you know Artist mentioned a quarterback. 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:31.800 I mean, listen, do you do you want a quarterback 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:33.800 on this team that is not going to have the 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:37.480 tools around him. How demoralizing would it be for a 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:39.880 the Shawan or Mr Drobisky if they were a part 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:41.800 of that organization. Well, you don't want to damage a 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:44.640 young player. Earlier we saw car struggle in Houston with 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:46.920 that as well. They don't have the surrounding players. They 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:48.880 do have a blue chip Hall of Fame player and 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:51.080 Joe Thomas. You know it's blinds out to be covered. 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.279 But if you can't establish that with a solid run 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.640 game and be able to build around a young player, 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:57.920 I think you get the pieces around him. I think 0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:00.480 last year the quarterbacks they're they're about he. Well, I 0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:03.640 forget the kid from USC. He played amarably at times. 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.120 I think you continue to build around him, continue to 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.520 stackpole future picks, traded up and sound the board and 0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:12.359 playing moneyball right now, Sassy Brown. You know he's an 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.440 analytic type of guy. I think you try and get 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.240 your blue chip player. They missed the opportunity last year, 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:19.279 but they didn't go out and get wins. I think 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:21.720 it's not a quarterback in his draft, but though at 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.039 that caliber. So you go with the short miss, you know, 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:26.880 the short camp miss MOUs Garrett, who's a pass rusher. 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.279 You think about this game, now you need a quarterback. 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.200 You need a pass rusher. Used to be that the 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:34.240 cornerbacks were the most important players, but now stopping the 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:37.240 most important player on the opposing team, it's the pass rush. 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.239 All right, Enough about the Cleveland Brian, Let's talk about 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.840 the New York Jets, who do hold that number six 0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:48.560 overall selection. Tonight as the draft gets underway, Rich starting 0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.120 with you, who do you think is going to be 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:55.479 available for the Green and White when they're put on 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:59.520 the clock if they don't trade back and he offensively, 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.520 I think we have to talk about O. J. Howard, 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:06.039 the tight end from Alabama Leonard four net could be 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.919 a possibility. The running back from LSU would be a 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:12.320 splashy pick, would be a face of the franchise, type 0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:15.359 of a player. Defensively. I think we have to talk 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:19.480 about defensive backfield. I would love to see a Jamal 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.960 Adams the safety slip. Don't think it happens, but Marshawn 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:27.039 Lattimore from Ohio State Malie Hooker from Ohio State. Those 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:29.840 are two players that could possibly fall into the Jets 0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:32.760 lap part. Who's jumping out to you? Um? I love 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.520 the Howard kid only because of the combination between him 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.000 and s Paron Jakins. What that can really do to 0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:41.840 opposing defenses being that you can have two pass catching 0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.360 tight ends that can also help you in the in 0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:46.640 the past with Texas as well, keep one guy in, 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.040 split him out. They can act as receivers as well. 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:51.880 I think, um, you can't go roll before Nette um he. 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.280 I think he's a guy who's been carried a load. 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:56.960 I saw him yesterday. He looks great. It looks like 0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:59.560 he's keeping that water weight off. You know, he was 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.359 there with his family, had a huge entourage. Happy for 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.880 the kid. It's always a great time. You know. You 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.159 see guys that work so hard to come to this 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.760 point and really enjoy the night before you know you 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:11.760 have to go to work and get that business done. 0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:14.240 I would love the combination between him and Allow Paul, 0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:16.320 who you know. I believe it's earned the right to 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:19.120 get a lot more playing time. He's still relatively young 0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.440 in his career. He has little trade and he still 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.520 has a lot of trade left on the tires. But 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:25.920 if I had to pick, I think the biggest matchup 0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:29.400 in any draft is that tight end. They've revolutionized the 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.280 game because their matchup nightmare. The Jets are fortunate to 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.440 have two of those guys and you can do a 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:36.880 lot of things with the two tight end personnel. Okay, 0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:40.920 so Rich Sermonalo and the mad backer south part Scott say, 0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.960 if O. J. Howard is on the board, they'd like 0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.840 the Alabama tell you down to come in here and 0:07:47.120 --> 0:07:51.280 be a Jet. With that being sad, there are six 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:56.920 picks Friday and Saturday for the Jets. Bottom line is 0:07:57.440 --> 0:08:00.520 not only do you have to hit early, but here 0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.480 is a draft a lot of talent, a lot of 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:07.080 tal important part you're a guy who wasn't drafted. I 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:10.920 mean how important our Friday and Saturday When you're a 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.040 team in transition and you're trying to build, well, if 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.240 you're picking in the top ten every year, then you're 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.480 not a pretty good team, so you hope that this 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.600 is the just last time up in here, so they 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:22.360 have to make sure that they win. But then you 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:24.680 think about in the second rounds, that's when the teams 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:26.920 are really made. That's when you get guys that are 0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:29.600 coming hungry. They're going to be positional type of players. 0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:32.040 They're gonna be role players. But also those are guys 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:33.840 that you know, may just need a little bit of 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.600 developments from coaching and they can turn into and become 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.040 you know, you think about Leon Washington, I think about 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:42.640 Drew Coleman, I think about Eric Smith. I think about 0:08:42.679 --> 0:08:44.439 some of the guys that are major contributors to some 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:46.200 of the teams that I was a part of. You know, 0:08:46.240 --> 0:08:48.400 they were guys that came in as late draft picks, 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.680 but they contributed, they were well and they're always going 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:53.080 to be cheap. The team can't be full of high 0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.760 price creators and high draft picks. You know, if you're 0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:58.280 the great, teams have guys that they find and that's 0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:00.679 where your scotting department really comes in. The rich What 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:04.880 ups off to you about the second round and beyond 0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:08.440 as we'll start Day two Friday night, Well, listen, the 0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:10.920 Jets are gonna choose, in my opinion, either the tight 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.760 end or a defensive back with that first pick, and 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.679 you look deeper in the draft. Those are two positions 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:21.439 that are very deep. I mean defensive backfield in general, corners, safeties, 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.600 tight ends on offense a tremendous amount of debt. So 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.560 if it's Howard the first you can still get some 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:31.440 quality dbs, second round and beyond if it's one of 0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:34.640 the defensive backs. Tremendous tight ends. One of the deepest 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:37.679 tight end classes I can remember, So you could go 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:40.920 deeper even beyond that second and third round and still 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.840 get a playmaker at that tight end position. So a 0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.840 lot of talent, and a lot of talent in areas 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.280 where the Jets need help. No offensive line. I think 0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:53.200 the Jets can use some offensive lineman. But this draft 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:59.959 is different because, yeah, usually every year you can say, hey, 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:03.800 it's gonna be in the top ten. When when is 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.080 the first offensive linement going to go in this draft? 0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:09.760 It could be Forest lamp and he's not even a tackle. Well, 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.160 I tell you what, when you think about the tackle position, 0:10:12.280 --> 0:10:14.360 how it's changed. I played with the likes of Willie 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.880 Rode Jonathan Ogden. You know young Joe Thomas, you know 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:23.360 Walter Walter Jones, you know, uh, big Willie out in Cincinnati's. 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:26.080 They don't make those players anymore. Those guys don't exist. 0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:28.920 Now you have positional guys. It's not that six eight 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:32.679 and six seven, three fifty pound dominant lineman tackle anymore. 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:34.720 And I think, you know when you think about the 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:38.080 tackle position, and I think it's a big disconnect between 0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:40.920 the collegiate level and the program level because now these 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.120 guys are used there, used to playing basketball getting in front. 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:46.679 You're going side to side, and you know the league 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:48.679 you have to drop back and protect that seven step 0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:50.720 drop and then they're just not used to doing that. 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:53.000 They're not big enough to really handle, you know, the 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.640 bull rushes and things those sorts. So I think, you know, 0:10:56.480 --> 0:11:00.520 you get you a tackle late in the draft. You development. Um. 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.800 Let's talk about the Jets off season to day that 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:09.400 released a number of prominent veterans, Brandon Marshall, the Roll, 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:17.000 revus Um, Nick Mangold, Brenda Jakamini, Nick Folk, uh part. 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.520 Some of these guys you played with them, A lot 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:22.880 of these guys who played with them, But it's a 0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:26.960 salary cap era. The Jets won just five games last year. 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:31.080 There's obviously a youth youth movement going on here. A 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:34.600 lot of these players over thirty years of age. What 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:39.400 stands out to you as far as making those necessary 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.120 of moves here this offseason. But when you can't win 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:44.160 with a high stylary cap, you have to do you 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:45.720 don't have to do a money permos and that's just 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:48.160 a business. You have to go young. It's a time 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:50.240 for these young guys have an opportunity to play into 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:53.439 develop because you're studying their growth, so to speak. Because 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:55.880 every year you're trying to win, but the young players 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.880 don't get to get an opportunity. The only way you're 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.120 gonna get better is about actually playing in real life moments. 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.560 And I think the Jets having a very young football team. 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:06.160 I remember being a part of a football team after 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:08.600 a lot of veterans got pursed. When you think about 0:12:08.600 --> 0:12:13.320 the Baltimore Ravens, you think about Shanny Sharp, Charles Woodson, Adams, 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.559 Rob Burnett, all those guys who we came in the 0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:18.160 root of youngest team in NFL history. But it allowed 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.360 us to get some experience. We took our lunch and 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:23.440 allowed us to create a foundation and that those were 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.559 the teams that were consistently in the playoffs and brought 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:28.680 in Joe Platteau and Ray Rich and some of those 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:30.880 old players, and that's how we're able to be consistent 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:34.200 with all right, So so everybody can hear us at 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.800 Montlife Stadium, I'm gonna ask both of you guys to 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:39.920 pick off your mix and speak right into them because 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.520 we're on the board throughout mount Life Stadium. Thanks the 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:46.559 Jets Nation for attending the Jets Annual Draft party here 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:51.000 at Montlife Stadium. We're getting under way here at seven o'clock. 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.520 The general public is going to be in as well. 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.760 Remember we are presented today by m c U. It's 0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:01.840 the official credit union of the New York Jet uh Rich. 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:08.960 We're talking about offseason transactions by the Jets. Any surprises 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:12.520 to you of the moves that Mike mccagnan made as 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:15.480 far as the departures are concerned, I don't know so 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.640 much about surprises. I think it's uh for the fan base. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:23.000 Sometimes you've grown accustomed to the Nick Mangold, Darrell Reeves. 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:25.199 I think it's a little bit difficult to not have 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:27.920 those faces in the building. Anymore. But to Bart's point, 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.400 part of the business necessary transition. Have to move on, 0:13:32.559 --> 0:13:35.319 have to do the purge, have to get younger. I 0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:38.760 think Mike mccagnan did a good job of resisting the 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.200 temptation to mortgage the future. You adda Morris Clayborne. I 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:44.760 like Marris Clayborne. I think if he's healthy, he is 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:48.920 a quality defensive back. He's an upgrade and Kelvin beach him. Listen, 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:52.440 he's he's not gonna be a top of tier. He's big, 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.440 he's athletic guy. I had mentioned you off the air 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:58.000 that uh, you know, June Jones had once told me 0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:00.559 one of the most athletic tackles he's ever each before. 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.720 That's of you. So I think it's important to tap 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:06.280 the brakes and improve through the draft. At this point, 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:08.720 what about Josh McCown. That's a guy that you faced 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:12.440 off against. Talk talking about you know, Hackenburg, and talk 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:15.360 about Bryce Petty. You know what better pro to learn 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:17.760 to than a guy that's been a lot of different systems. 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:19.960 You know, a guy that can really tutor and mentor 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:21.600 these guys to teach him how to be a pro, 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.760 teach him how to prepare um and I think it's 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:26.040 gonna you know, if you want to find out what 0:14:26.080 --> 0:14:28.080 those guys have, sometimes you have to put somebody in 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:30.200 there that can lead them and teach them. You know, 0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:33.120 the IDEO Sncracy's are playing a position how to prepare 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.040 what to look for in film. And I think you 0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:37.080 know that it would be great for the Jets because 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.240 he's a pro. He's gonna come out, he's gonna put 0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:42.040 him in positions, he's not gonna lose the game. And 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.320 I'm excited about this young receiving corps. I love a 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.920 new Wak. You know, he reminds me of a Kwa Bolden. 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:50.240 You know, he's a beast. You talk about a guy 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.240 that's willing to do the dirty work. But I think 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.200 last year showed his ability to separate and kind of 0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:58.680 be a one to one B type of receiver that 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.200 Decker comes back. You know, then if you can get 0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:03.440 a tight end or or if we can get Safren 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.280 Jenkis to kind of step up a little bit. We 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:07.360 know what bla Pal has been able to do because 0:15:07.360 --> 0:15:09.600 he's a guy that steps on the football field and 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.120 you don't know because he's tough in between the tackles, 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:14.800 He's a great receiver of the football, but he'll shorten 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:17.960 your neck as well and pass cover, so you know, 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.120 I think they have a lot of flexibility. I'm excited 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:21.800 about this offense that they have. I think it can 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.560 only get better. A new offensive coordinator and John Morton, 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.640 new quarterbacks coach, and Jeremy Bates from the Jets this year. 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:34.160 McCown he's got some gun slinger mentality and him doesn't 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:37.520 it absolutely. You know, he's a guy that's not afraid 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:39.280 to fail. You know, when you've been around the league 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:41.560 for as long as he has, and you think about 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:43.280 I think about a couple of years ago when he 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:45.480 was in you know, he had huge receivers like he'll 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:47.240 have with the Jets, and you know, you look what 0:15:47.280 --> 0:15:49.480 he was able to do in Chicago pushing the ball 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.360 down the field, and you talk about some of the 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.720 numbers he's able to put up. I think you should 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.600 be inspired if you're a young receiver, because he's gonna 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.040 throw the ball with the ball, but the defense dictates 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.080 the ball as supposed to. Oh, he's not gonna make 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:03.320 many mistakes. You know, he's just gonna be incumbent that 0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:07.600 these young guys make plays for the quarterback you mentioned Claiborn. Uh, 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:09.720 we're talking about him a little bit, and he played 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.240 his best football last season in Dallas. That's something Jason 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:17.080 Garrett told me at the NFL owners meetings when he 0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:19.600 was asked about Claiborne. He said, listen, he's a guy 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:23.320 who wanted to have back in Dallas. Rich mentioned before, 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:27.200 here's a former top ten pick. If you're him, Barton, 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.640 are you looking at this as a chance to kind 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:33.480 of get a fresh start. You're still a young player, 0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:36.080 you still have a lot of upside, and now you're 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:39.800 gonna go to a new organization and a very good 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:43.240 medical staff handed by John Molly. Absolutely, John Belly is 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.000 one of the best in the business. But also I 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:47.480 think Clayborn health is gonna be key. He was healthy 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.000 last year. You know, coming coming in this year, it's 0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:53.240 gonna be him coming. He's a very physical, competitive quarterback 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.320 at the at the point of attack. He's somebody that 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:57.800 you can you know, he's gonna have his man can 0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.680 road covers opposite. It's just gonna be incombing in the Jets. 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:02.920 With the Jets as always, you're gonna have to find 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.600 a way to generate a pass rush without Blitzen, and 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:07.159 you may be able to find one of those players 0:17:07.280 --> 0:17:10.440 in the second term round. First, all right, that's the 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:14.560 man backer, Bart Scott. I'm here on stage with Rich 0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:19.120 Sermonello as well. It's the Jets annual Draft party. You're 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:23.120 watching live basically all our platforms right now. We're brought 0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:25.720 to you today by m c U, the official Credit 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:28.399 Union in the New York Jets. Let's continue to talk 0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:31.800 some offense and bring in a former Jets running back 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:35.160 right now in Zach Stacy. Zack, thank you so much 0:17:35.200 --> 0:17:38.560 for joining us. So from a three person set, we 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:42.200 go to four. And since your former running back, let's 0:17:42.200 --> 0:17:44.919 talk about the running backs and you played in that 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:49.119 sec what do you think about Leonard four Nett and 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:54.080 his running style and what excites you about that prospect? 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:58.400 Oh man, it's crazy. Um, I'm just glad I didn't 0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:01.640 come out this year because the draft lasses loaded outer 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.360 this year. You know, guys like fort as you mentioned, 0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.720 you know David Cook, uh, you know Christian McCaffey, But 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:10.639 Leonard Fournette brings us a special element to the table 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.240 just because you don't see guys two forty pounds run 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:19.640 like he does. Waterway. Absolutely, but it's actually good because 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:23.199 a report said that he actually lost weight. Uh you know, 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.680 he's done like two two pounds now, so I'm eager 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:28.840 to see how he does. But once in the I mean, 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.879 he's probably the niche, closest thing to Adrian Peace in 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:33.679 my in my opinion. You know, we said a lot 0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:36.439 about that about Todd. Gurley obviously had a down season 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:39.280 last year, but I think you know he's gonna be 0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:42.119 for net Is, gonna have a chance to have a 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.960 splash last Eliot did part What do you think about 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:50.440 that coison here? I see the comparison, but that's gonna 0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:52.040 house doing the next levels be able to be a 0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:54.359 receiver of the ball because it's a different game now. 0:18:54.640 --> 0:19:01.120 You know me personally, I'm stuck between Dalvin Cook and McCaffrey. 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:04.040 I love McCaffrey because he's tough in between the tackles, 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.040 but I just don't think he's a good fit for 0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:09.000 this team. But I think he's the best. He may 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:10.880 not have the best career, but I think he's gonna 0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.160 have the most impact. You talk about a guy who 0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:15.520 touches the ball in the in the in the return game, 0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.320 he can run the ball in between the tackles. He's 0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:20.440 more physical than you think. You talk about pedigree. We 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:22.399 talk about this all the time with the Matthews and 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.639 Legacy and all that stuff. You know, his dad was 0:19:24.680 --> 0:19:27.560 a tough s ob and his dad knows and he 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:29.760 can go in and his dad's not gonna not gonna 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:31.359 pacify Hi. He's gonna tell him what he needs to 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:33.760 do to be a pro. He's gonna be business and working. 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.680 Like in the offseason he played for David Shaw, who 0:19:36.440 --> 0:19:39.560 who I've worked with before, remember of the Baltimore Ravens. 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:42.520 So he's been in the pro style offense and he's 0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:44.040 a great receiver of the ball. He could be a 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:46.639 matchup nightmare because you go empty and you put him 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:49.160 in that slot and you get stuck with that linebacker 0:19:49.160 --> 0:19:51.760
