You will not only get our 5 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: predictions for who the Bengals will select in the first 6 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 1: round with the eleventh overall pick, but this year we 7 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: will take a staff at predicting the Bengals first three picks. 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: We'll discuss the quarterback position and how early we think 9 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: the Bengals will draft one, and we will give our 10 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: dream scenarios, which in both of our cases involves the 11 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: Bengals trading their first round selection. Do we want them 12 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: to move up or move down? Stay tuned to find 13 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: out All of that is straight ahead. But first, here's 14 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: a quick reminder that you can have the latest edition 15 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: of this podcast delivered right to your phone, tablet, or 16 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: computer by subscribing I Tunes, Stitcher, google Play, or pod Bean. 17 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 1: It's the greatest convention since personalized golf balls. I have 18 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: a buddy who works for titlist who sent me a 19 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: gift this week, golf balls that say Sam's Dad on 20 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 1: the side in honor of my twelve year old son. 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: I love them, but I also wanted to get the 22 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: word out there just in case you find one in 23 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: the woods at a Cincinnati area golf course in the 24 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: near future and incorrectly think you found a ball that 25 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: was lost by Tiger Woods. Unfortunately for you, it's a 26 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: different Sam's dad. Let's get to the draft. Dave Lapham 27 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: has a remarkable record for predicting who the Bengals will 28 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: take with their number one pick. The first four years 29 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: we did this, Lap nailed Kevin Zeidler, Tyler Eifert, Darques Denard, 30 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: and Cedrico Boihe. In twenty sixteen, he predicted wide receiver 31 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: Will Fuller laps no Stradamis like streak ended when Fuller 32 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: was taken three picks before the Bengals were on the clock, 33 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: and they wound up choosing Will Jackson. The following year, 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: lap was right again, going with John Ross at number nine. Overall. 35 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: Last year, he predicted that the Bengals would go with 36 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: a center in the first round, and his personal preference 37 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: was Frank Ragnow. Out of the trio of Ragnow, Billy 38 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: Price and James Daniels, the Lions agreed with Lap and 39 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: took Ragnow one spot before Cincinnati and the Bengals wound 40 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: up choosing price for what it's worth. That was my prediction. 41 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: Now time for a deep dive into what we think 42 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: the Bengals are likely to do beginning on Thursday night. 43 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: Lap I want to start with the guys that we 44 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: think there's no chance on God's green Earth that are 45 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: going to be there at number eleven when the Bengals 46 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: make their first pick, because I think we can also 47 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 1: assume they're not going to trade way up in the draft. 48 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: They've almost never done that in their history. So in 49 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: my mind, Quinnin Williams, Joe Ebosa, Josh Allen, and Kyler 50 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: Murray are the four guys that I think there's absolutely 51 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: no chance in the world they'll be there. What do 52 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: you think? Yeah, I agree with that, Dan. I mean 53 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: I think that in this draft, if you go by 54 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 1: best player, I think in the in the in the 55 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: top ten, there should be seven or eight defensive linemen 56 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: that go. But it probably won't be the case because 57 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are valued so much higher. I don't have a 58 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: one A grade on any quarterback personally, just big holes 59 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: in every quarterbacks. Every quarterbacks, you know, numbers, tape, everything else. 60 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: When you say one A, do you mean like the 61 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: top third of the first round? If they were, they're 62 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: thirty two teams, so if there are thirty three, the 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: Bengals would be the last pick of the one. Ah, 64 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: they're the eleven, so they're they're the boardline. Are they 65 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: one A or they the top of one B? But yeah, 66 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: the top the top third of the draft. I don't 67 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: think any of the quarterbacks weren't being in the top 68 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: third of that, but they'll they are round quarterbacks. So 69 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: since there were first round quarterbacks, a couple of them, 70 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: at least one of them, maybe two will go one A. 71 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: And I honestly that leads me to around the league, 72 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: normally there are you know, eighteen to twenty two first 73 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: round grades of the thirty two guys that are drafted 74 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: in the first round. Everybody the consensus is, you know, 75 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: never thirty two first round grades eighteen to twenty two range. 76 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: This year I've heard as few as fifteen. I've heard 77 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: as few as twelve a dozen to fifteen one A grades. 78 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: So that means, you know, will the Bengals get a 79 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: one A player. They may they may have to settle 80 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: for a one B player at the at the end 81 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: of one AIR at the beginning of one B and 82 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: hopefully not go one C. And so there will be 83 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: a lot of teams that are in their first round 84 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: are getting one B or one C. You know, talent players, 85 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,119 Speaker 1: but because of this draft is far from top heavy. 86 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: The strength the draft is rounds two through four. Good 87 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: to have five sixth round picks. Five six round picks 88 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: I'd like to have in a perfect world, I'd like 89 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 1: to see him trade back and get an extra third, 90 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: get another pick in the top ninety five picks of 91 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: the draft. Five picks in the sixth round. The chances 92 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: of hitting a CJ. Zama, A Rex Brokehead increased exponentially 93 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: a numbers game, You're gonna hit on one of them. 94 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 1: You would think you're probably not gonna hit on three 95 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: of them though, so but you it is going to 96 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: give you a better opportunity. I mean, you're selecting consecutive 97 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: players there for a while. I mean, it gives you 98 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: a pretty good shot of hitting on one of them 99 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: because nobody's gonna be taken anything from you. You're just boom, 100 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: boom boom. What are you? What are you thinking and 101 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: how good is your board in that area. And over 102 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: the years, they've been pretty good in that area. So 103 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,119 Speaker 1: it is an interesting draft, I think, and that there's 104 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: not even usually you can say here's the top five guys, 105 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: and definitely here's the top three guys. This year you 106 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 1: can't even say that. You can't even say that, So 107 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: it's it's very interesting draft. Um, it's not a great 108 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: year to have a top ten pick, and the Bengals 109 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: are just outside of that obviously, but it's not a 110 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: super year to have that. Um, you know, there are 111 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: there are some players I shouldn't say unilaterally nobody deserves 112 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 1: to be a top ten prospect, but there aren't there 113 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: on a whole lot of first round picks talent wise 114 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: in this year's draft. And when's the last time, Dan 115 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: this has been talked about it a few times once 116 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: the last time no safety, no corner, no running back, 117 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: no wide receiver could go on the top ten. That's 118 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: been a while. I've asked people that around the league. 119 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: I said, can you remember a year where all four 120 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: of those positions are eliminated in the in the top 121 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: ten potentially and nobody can really come up with it. 122 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: You know a year right off the top of their 123 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: head like that, you think Quinn and Williams is the 124 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: best player in this draft? Correct? I do? I think? 125 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: You know, in terms of tape potential. You know, he's 126 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: a he's a guy that his body fits his frame. 127 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: You know he's not he doesn't have a Volkswagen chassis 128 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: with a Cadillac body on it. You know, is he's 129 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: still he's still a pop. He's still a young guy 130 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: that I think his best football is still ahead of him. 131 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: And he was a dominant inside guy and he's young. 132 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: I think I think he's he's going to be the guy. 133 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: In my mind, it's going to have the big, big career. 134 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: I really believe that. So we said Williams, Bossa, Allen 135 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: and Murray are definitely not going to be there at 136 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: number eleven, then I think there's another group of guys 137 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: that almost certainly won't be there as well. Devin White, 138 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: sorry Bengals fans. I think he's going to go fifth, sixth, 139 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: somewhere in that neighborhood. I think a tackle, at least 140 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: one tackle will go in the top ten. I'm not 141 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: sure which one will it be Jonah Williams, will it 142 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: be Dillard, will it be Taylor, will it be Ford. 143 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,239 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but I think a tackle will be gone. 144 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: Whatever that team considers to be the top tackle in 145 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: the draft. I think t J. Hockinson will be gone. 146 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: I think somebody will grab at the best tight end 147 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: in this draft. And personally, I think at Oliver, the 148 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: defensive tackle from Houston, will be gone. I hope all 149 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: those are true. I hope those guys all go. You know, 150 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: the interesting thing about both the linebackers, Devin White and 151 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: Devin Bush. And if Devin Bush is there at eleven, 152 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: he's obviously going to be in the in the If 153 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: White's there, he's obviously going to be in the conversation. 154 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: But you know, they're undersized. And look what the New 155 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: England Patriots did in the playoffs and in the super Bowl. 156 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: They went with a fullback and they said, okay, we're 157 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: going to old school, we're gonna pound you, and those 158 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 1: undersized sub packages they just beat them up, beat them up. 159 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: And you look at these linebackers and okay, they're three 160 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: down players. You're gonna get a lot of value. They're 161 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: three down players potentially, plus Darren Simmons is jeweling. I mean, 162 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, you can't have them play three downs and 163 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: all the all the special teams. But if they don't 164 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: end up being three down players, you can incorporate some 165 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: special teams. There's no way a guy with these athletic 166 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: abilities can't play special teams for him. So you got 167 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: to think as a rookie, you're spending a high pick. Man, 168 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: it's snapped. How many snaps they're gonna give you? So 169 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: you have a little a little uh, you know, a 170 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: little cushion, a little miss cushion, because special teams could 171 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: could give them a lot of snaps on the football field. 172 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: But when tight ends, big tight ends, these little guys 173 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: are going to get leveraged in the passing game. Each 174 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: guy has one career interception one. Where's the big playmaking? 175 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean there are these you know, smaller guys that 176 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: quasi safety is playing one pick each in their careers. 177 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: I don't know about the playmaking ability, particularly when you 178 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: go to the NFL level and you have these tight 179 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: ends that are the tyler efforts of you know, Hawkinson. 180 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: These guys that have size ability to run routes, you know, 181 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: length contested catch. These guys are going to struggle in 182 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: a contested catch area they did in college. Obviously they 183 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: only got one pick each. That's a little bit of 184 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: a concern to me and Devin White. I watched U 185 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: coach Turner, I watched Texas A and M. Put it 186 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: to Devin White. They beat him up, man, I mean 187 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: he's I watched solely that tape. He got knocked around. 188 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: He missed tackles. You know, I'm thinking top five pick. 189 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: You're playing like a top five pick in that game 190 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: against Texas A and M. And you can always find 191 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: games like that. But he missed a lot of tackles. 192 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: I think Bush is a more sure tackler than White is. 193 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: But I don't know, Man, going to that next level 194 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL, I'm not sure, but we'll see, we'll see. 195 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: All right, Let's take a look at kind of the 196 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: pool of guys we think will be in the mix 197 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: at number eleven. Yeah, I honestly, I think, you know, 198 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 1: Devin Bush will obviously, you know, be in the conversation 199 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: at the linebacker position. An edge rush guy like Gary 200 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: or Sweat will be in the conversation. Medical issues with 201 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: both of those guys. You know, Sweat has a thickening 202 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: wall in his heart. I mean, he has a heart 203 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: condition that a lot of some teams that I've talked 204 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: to are have a bigger concern with it than others. 205 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: It's you know, you just have to feel good about 206 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: it if you're going to draft him. Obviously. Plus, uh, 207 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: you know Mark D'Antonio said, see you later up in 208 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Michigan State. We know him. I mean, if you that 209 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: if he really feels good about a foot, he have 210 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: to have done something pretty severe for Mark to part 211 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: ways to say, Sayonara m So you know that's a 212 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: little bit but a little bit of an issue. But 213 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: man physically a freak, you know, six six, big, big size. 214 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: He's got eighty four inch length. I mean, you know, 215 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: guys have seven foot wingspans and he runs a four 216 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: to four forty And with that inspector gadget arms, he 217 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: can set the edge and lock you know, lock guys 218 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 1: up in the in the running game, keep people away 219 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: from him. He could be a big tackle for lost 220 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: sack guy. Rashaan Gary is a freak over two hundred 221 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: and eighty pounds, run sub four to six you know, 222 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: thirty eight inch vertical ten foot broad jump. But you 223 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: put the tape on where is it ten and a 224 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: half career sacks as the number one defensive line recruit, 225 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: number one overall recruit in the country. Ten and a 226 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: half career Yeah, and he only played nine games last 227 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: year and he's got a shoulder problem and supposedly it's 228 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: a rotator cuff, and uh, you know, I can I 229 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: can think back to Buffalo drafted the kid out of 230 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: Clemson with a rotator cuff first round pick. I'm trying 231 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: to think of the edge rush guy and cramping on 232 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: his name right now. But Rex Ryan Take took him 233 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: in the first round. His son, Rex Ryan Some was 234 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 1: a walk on at Clemson and said, you know this guy, 235 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: he's a big time playmaker. And uh, you know, early 236 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: in the training camp, or even maybe even before training camp, 237 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, he had to have surgery on the rotator cuff. 238 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: So if Sean Gary does have a rotator cuff problem, 239 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: maybe that's the reason his productivity was down last year. 240 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: And I thought last year, to me, it looked like 241 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: he was shutting it down some. It might have been 242 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: the shoulder might have been an agent in his ear 243 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: saying take care of yourself, don't do anything stupid, make 244 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: some good business decisions. But you know, you don't want 245 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 1: to have that. But the interesting thing that the Bengals 246 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: have dan the northern team in the league has ten. 247 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: They're almost half of their coaches or from college last year. 248 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,439 Speaker 1: Last year in college. Jordan Kovac's defensive quality control for 249 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: the Bengals on the Michigan staff last year. Tim Lucaboo, 250 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: linebackers coach for the Bengals on the Mississippi State coaching 251 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: staff last year. They know about these injuries. It's not 252 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: like speculation. It's not rumor, it's not you know, it's 253 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: they know. They were there as coaches. They know exactly 254 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: what the doctors were saying. That's intel that other teams 255 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: don't have. That's great information. So they coached some of 256 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: these prospects. Jim Turner game planned against them in the 257 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: SEC and as the offensive line coach at Texas AM, 258 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: he knows of what he sees and speaks Alabama, Florida, 259 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: the offensive lineman from those schools, he knows all about him. 260 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: He watched it. I mean, they have they have great 261 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: intel with all these college This is the only year 262 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: it's going to be that way, obviously, because you know 263 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: next year they'll be coach in the NFL. But they 264 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: have double digit guys on their staff that were in 265 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: the college game last year as coaches, and to me, 266 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: that is massive going into this game they'll have it'll 267 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 1: be interesting to see who's pounding their shoe on the 268 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: table in support of a guy who's saying, hey, you know, 269 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: and he's shaky, shaky on the field, shaky character, shaky, 270 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: whatever injury is. It's more than you think. Ah, the 271 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: injuries nothing to worry about. They will have an opinion 272 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: on all that. That's very valuable. So Devin Bush theoretically 273 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: in the mix. Edge rushers theoretically in the mist mix. 274 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: Excuse me, how about tackles. Offensive tackles, Yeah, I mean 275 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: offensive tackles are definitely going to be in the mix 276 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: because I think I think that, you know, the area 277 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: that everybody talked about is better protection for Andy Dalton 278 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: And if you do have a more solid offensive lining, 279 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: your offense is more productive, less exposure for you defense. 280 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it all goes hand in hand. If the 281 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: defense is getting off the football field, the offense is 282 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: going to have more opportunity. If the offriends can't stay 283 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: on the football field, defense is going to have more exposure. 284 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's the hand fitting the glove. But I 285 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: think if you improve the offensive line, it benefits. Look 286 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: at all the skill people that they have talent wise 287 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: on the team. They have Pro Bowl players at multiple 288 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: year Pro Bowl players at quarterback, at a wide receiver 289 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: on the cusp of one at running back potentially. I mean, 290 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: they've got Tyler Eiford at tight end depending on you know, 291 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: his availabilities. They've got players, they've got skilled players, and 292 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: they've got a quarterback that can handle you know things 293 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: if you if you give him an opportunity to do so. Mentally, 294 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: I think improving the offensive line becomes paramount to me. 295 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: You know, I've I think I guess there's a former linement. 296 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: I leaned in that direction anyway, But I agree with 297 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: you Dan. You know, I'd be stunned if two tackles 298 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: go in the top you know ten, I don't know 299 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: if I'm stunned. That's probably two. That's too strong. I'd 300 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: be surprised. But one of them is gonna go, and 301 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: maybe two. I mean, it could very well happen because 302 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: around the league, I think everybody feels that way. And 303 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: you know, guys that I respect, like Charlie Cashley's got 304 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: a couple of them going, you know, in the top 305 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: ten in his mock drafts, and there are four with 306 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: high grades. Jonah Williams from Alabama, Juan Taylor from Florida, 307 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: Andre Dillard Washington State, Cody four to Oklahoma. It seems 308 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: consensus that all four of those guys are first round talents. Yeah, 309 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: and I think you know, it's it's like, what do 310 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: you um? What do you what do you like when 311 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: you when you see these guys. Taylor to me, um, 312 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: he never ran a forty. That tells me he can't. 313 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: He's not he's he's slow, he's slow footed. That doesn't 314 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: mean that he's not fluid smooth. I mean, and he's powerful. 315 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: You know. Now he's not Willie Anderson. You know, if 316 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: if Willie Anderson sitting there at ten or eleven, you 317 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: jump all over that. But he's not that. But he's 318 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: he's he's a he's a power, strong power player. He's 319 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: probably the best run player. Run right tackles strictly, a 320 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: right tackle strictly, you know, maybe a guard I mean 321 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: his feet his feet or you know, I guess good 322 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: enough to go into guard um and play the guard position. 323 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: But um, you know he's he's a right tackle strictly. 324 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: Jonah Williams, you know, hope you might hope that you 325 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: have a Matt Lite type player. I mean his film 326 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: production is pretty darn good. I think he can play left. 327 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: He played left, he can play left, right, he can 328 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: play guard, he can play center. Um, he lined up 329 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: in the SEC, as did Taylor, so they played against 330 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: the best competition you can play against. That's a plus 331 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 1: for those guys. For Taylor and Williams. M Williams is 332 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: a is a multi year captain. You know, he's number 333 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: four overall in the entire draft on the Pro Football 334 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: Focus board. Yeah, I think I think he might be 335 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: the one that goes if he is not taken. Sprint 336 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: sprint to get him, I mean, don't don't hesitate, run 337 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: the best forty time. You know he's your favorite of 338 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 1: the four. Yeah, well, I have him, Honestly, I have he. 339 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 1: He and Dillard those are my two guys, and those 340 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: are the two guys that i'd like to see him. 341 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: One of those two guys I'd like to see him 342 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: pick because in my mind, is still a big man's game. 343 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: And if you if you Dillard to me, is is 344 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: a left tackle. Dillard's the guy. He's he's the left tackle, 345 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: He's the prototype left tackle. The only thing is, when 346 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm watching him on tap Dan, I'm looking at his 347 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: body type in the linear, I'm like, I've seen this 348 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 1: movie before. It looks like Cedric Odway here a little bit. Physically, 349 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 1: It's like, oh, man, he's got long and he's got 350 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 1: the long arms, and he's fluid and he's smooth and 351 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: he's athletic. And I'm like, oh, don't like that. But 352 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: he seems to have a little more saltiness to him 353 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: as I'm watching. And he's gonna turn twenty four in October. 354 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: He's not a kid, so I think I think that's 355 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: that will help him. Um, you know it, obviously you're thinking, I, well, jeez, 356 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: he's only gonna play till he's thirty two. You know 357 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 1: how many years we got out of him. Hey, you know, 358 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: I would I would take the guy. I think his 359 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: experienced level is a plus. Washington State, you know, through 360 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: a sixty five times a game, and he was a machine. 361 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: He bends at the knees, he's got very good hand placement, 362 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: he's got a good punch. He can redirect with people. 363 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: He is the best pass blocker in my mind, the 364 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: best pack pass blocker in the draft. Kind of a 365 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: finesse run guy, not a dominant, powerful run guy. Um 366 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: will coach Turner be able to teach him technique that 367 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: because up there they don't give a don They don't 368 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: give a don about running a football. I mean, the 369 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 1: running game is a draw. You know, they don't. I 370 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: know Mike Leach, and I know Mike Leach personally. I 371 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: mean I did a bunch of his games the text. 372 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: He did not care about running the football one iota. 373 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: So you're never going to see, you know, a great 374 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 1: run run block technique out of his out of their 375 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. Doesn't mean he can't do it. But as 376 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: you look at him, he looks he looks more for 377 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: he looks more like a finesse position guy rather than 378 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: you know, come downhill and smoke you off the line 379 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. So I guess that would be you know, 380 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 1: the question of the flying Who's ointment to me? Ford 381 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: is a guard? Yeah yeah? And Taylor, Taylor and Ford 382 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: a little bit more. These guys are the old Oakland 383 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,239 Speaker 1: Raiders Allah art Shaw and Gane Upshaw clamp I mean 384 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: their techniques they grab you know that. That tells me 385 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: they're not confident in their movement. They're just they're trying 386 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: to reach and grab you and um. In the NFL 387 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 1: with the with the better athletes that they're going to 388 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: be facing. If they don't have the really good footwork 389 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: and the ability to change direction, they'll they'll maul people 390 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: in the running game. But I'm not sure about pass protection, 391 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: you know. And my experience has always been if a 392 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: guy's if his if his better area of his game 393 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: is run blocking, it's gonna be very hard. It's more difficult, 394 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: I think, to teach a good run block or a 395 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: pass block than a good pass block or a run block. 396 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: I really feel that way, all right, So possibility of 397 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: a linebacker, edge rusher, offensive tackle, What about quarterback? What 398 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: if Haskins is there at number eleven. I don't think 399 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: they I don't think they take him. I think that 400 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: in my mind, Miami sitting at thirteen Washington Stenting at fifteen, 401 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: the Giants are sitting at seventeen. I do think the 402 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: Giants are going to take one of the edge rushers. 403 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: Knowing their GM's. He loves big people. He loves, you know, 404 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: with their top ten pick, with their top ten pick, 405 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 1: their six pick of the draft. I think that Gettleman 406 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: is going to go with a hog Molly, like he 407 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 1: likes to call him. You know. He likes big people, 408 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: and he feels like you win with big people. I 409 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: think he goes there would not surprise me or stun 410 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,959 Speaker 1: me whatsoever. Was seventeen though he may be thinking, all right, 411 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: let me try quarterback here. The Bengals are sitting pretty 412 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: thirteen fifteen, seventeen. All three of those teams potentially could say, 413 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: you know, well, particularly Washington and the Giants, we're gonna 414 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: move up ahead of Miami. Let's move up to eleven. 415 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: I think the Bengals are sitting in a great spot. 416 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: I hope Haskins is there, but we'll find out if 417 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: the Bengals, I'm not saying we'll know because they didn't 418 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: trade back, you know, and Haskins being there, I bet 419 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: they get phone calls though, I bet they get phone calls. 420 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: And if Haskins doesn't get picked in those, and how 421 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: far will he slide? You know, do you like Haskins? 422 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 1: I do? I think, you know, I do think that 423 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: his his mechanics are inconsistent sometimes, But man, he's got 424 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: a gun. You know, if I'm his agent, I'm gonna 425 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: tell him to fifty touchdown passes. What if he only 426 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: has thirty five next year? I mean, does his value 427 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: go down? Or to fans who would be like, oh, man, 428 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: he was he was not even close to as good 429 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: as he was his junior year or the year before 430 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: and um, but you know, to football people, they'll look 431 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: at tape or his mechanics better, was he more decisive 432 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: with his decision making and all those kind of things. 433 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: A lot of teams around the league think that he 434 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 1: could have used one more year, so one year starter, 435 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: which is a knock typically if you look at past 436 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: quarterback success going from college to the NFL, the more 437 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: games you start the better. Secondly, a lot of people 438 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: seem to take the feet are not very good. Yeah, 439 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: I think I think that's the that's the thing you 440 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: know they think. Um, you know, mobility is a little 441 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: bit of a question mark. I know, is more mobile 442 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: than Tom Brady was coming out of Michigan. I know 443 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: that for sure. And that Michigan game is puzzling because 444 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: you know, they were the best defense in football. But 445 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: o'house day players were wide open. When you look at 446 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: that tape, you know, I'm not saying every Tom, Dick 447 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: and Harry could make the throws, but man, he didn't 448 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: get challenged with having to make a lot of tight 449 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 1: window throws. And I think a lot of a lot 450 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: of NFL people are like all right with the scheme 451 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: of offense that they ran. Man, he had a lot 452 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 1: of wide open areas to throw the football. Can he 453 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: make it? That's why during his pro day everybody was 454 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: making a big deal out of it. He was putting 455 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: that like on a back shoulder type spot, even though 456 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 1: it was against air. He was trying to show people 457 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 1: I can hit places. Instead of being what I'm into 458 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: a wide open I'm not using gonna throw it to 459 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: him right in front him where it's needs. I'm gonna, 460 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, pretend there's tight courage, back shoulder, you know, 461 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: make him throw throw it where only he can make 462 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: a play on the football. And he did that a 463 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: lot in his pro day. I noticed I was watching that. 464 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: I thought, well, that that's smart. That's smart to handle 465 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: it that way. I think, obviously, you know he's going 466 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: to be a first round guy. It's just a question 467 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: of where and when. But I don't think it's I 468 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: don't think the Cincinnati Bengals are gonna make that pick. No, 469 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to it. With the eleventh pick 470 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: in the twenty nineteen NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals select, 471 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Dillard because I think Williams isn't there. 472 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: But if Williams is there, Williams, but one of those 473 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: two guys, I would go with that, uh, you know, 474 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: with that offensive lineman. I think if Gary is there, 475 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: Shack Lawson's the guy I'm thinking of from trying to 476 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: think of from Clemson. He came out with Buffalo first 477 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 1: round edge rusher, and he had that shoulder issue. If 478 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: Shack loss If or Shaw Garry has a has a 479 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: shoulder issue like Shack Lawson. You know. Now now you're 480 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: looking at these subluxes that bad boys, looking at surgery 481 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: in a six months rehab um. So I mean the 482 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: thing about him, though, like we talked about great athletic talent, 483 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: just plays at a good level. When you have great talent, 484 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: you got to play better than a good level. And 485 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: you know that's that's this thing. And then sweat, you know, 486 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: sweat being there again, coaches on the staff can speak 487 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: to these and I don't know, I don't know where 488 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: they have them on the board. You know, we always 489 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: talk about the group guys. They'll have you know, one 490 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 1: through four, But on the big board one to ten, 491 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: one to twenty five, one to fifty. Do they have 492 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: the top two tackles on their board ahead of the 493 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 1: three and four edge rush guys. I don't know, but 494 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: we'll see, you know, I guess we'll probably find out. Um, 495 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: where do those linebackers been in on the big board? 496 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: You know, they're the top two linebackers obviously, where are 497 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,360 Speaker 1: they on the big board? Though? Um, just knowing how 498 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: Mike Brown thinks, I could see him going offensive tackle 499 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 1: there and if if you and he the reason I'm 500 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: thinking Dillard Jonah Williams played left tackle, but Man Farrell 501 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: from Clemson gave him a hard way to go in 502 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 1: that bowl game. Looking at that tape, Jonah Williams didn't 503 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: have his best day and Farrell Farrell's one. See, guy 504 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: Farrell is the first round guy. He's he's not a 505 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: guy at eleven. You know, I don't think but I'm 506 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: not saying that. You know, he's chopped liver. He's a 507 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: good football player. But I think the safest left tackle 508 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: in my eyes watching is Dillard. That's why I think 509 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: they do that because you can always you can always 510 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: go to other spots from left tackle. It's hardest to 511 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: go to that left tackle spot because in the NFL 512 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: is changing a little bit. It used to be it 513 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 1: was automatic. The best pass rusher was the right defensive end. 514 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: Now in these sub packages they have, you know, rushers 515 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: everywhere that are are a factor. You have to have 516 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: pass protectors everywhere, and that's what okay, And you say, 517 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: all right, well what do you do with Cordy him 518 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: into guard? So you're not thinking Dillard starts at right 519 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: tackle to begin his career and then eventually bounces to 520 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: left when Cordy Glenn has done, You're thinking he's right 521 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: in there at left tackle. I think if he shows 522 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: himself in training camp to be the left best left tackle, 523 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: I'd play him at left tackle. And Bobby Hart shows that, 524 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, he should be playing right tackle, play right tackle. 525 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: If Cordy plays left tackle well and he's healthy and 526 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: you know, engaged, yeah, and then it's a battle Bobby Hart, 527 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: and it's a battle those three tackles. The best guys 528 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 1: of those three tackles start and then if you if 529 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: you have to shuffle h Cordy goes inside plays some guard. 530 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: You got Miller and Cordy, two former Bills. You got 531 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: a buffalo tandem at guard. In college, Bowling was the 532 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 1: left tackle. Cordy Glenn was the left guard at Georgia. 533 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,199 Speaker 1: So you know, he, uh, you can. You can do 534 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: that easier. It's hard. It's easier to go tackle to 535 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: guard um. But the thing, you know, the reason I 536 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 1: like Jonah Williams is, honestly, I think he'd be a 537 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl guard potentially, even a Pro Bowl center potentially. 538 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: I think he played right tackle easier than left tackle, 539 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: but he can play left tackle. But in my eyes, athletically, 540 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: body type wise, watching him go, I think I think 541 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: Dillard Dillard being the guy he's he's he's bigger, faster, 542 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: you know, athletically, his numbers are are crazy. Again, you 543 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: know the nightmare I had a little bit, Am I 544 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: looking at? What am I looking at? I've seen this 545 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: playout and it didn't play out well, and it wouldn't 546 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: shock me if if the Bengals, it wouldn't shock me 547 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: if they go tackle in the first dance, second round, 548 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 1: that would shock me. Well, the reason it wouldn't shock 549 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: me if Howard's there from Alabama State in the second round, 550 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: because I think TuS Howard, Titus Howard. He is a 551 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: He's a first round talent. He started as a quarterback. 552 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: He was a quarterback at Alabama State, like Lane Johnson 553 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: with the Philadelphia Eagles when I was doing Oklahoma games. 554 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: He came to Oklahoma as a quarterback. Now he's, you know, 555 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: quarterback and moving the tight end. Beef him up now tackle, 556 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl tackle. Howard's three hundred and twenty five pounds, 557 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: long arms, three time captain, He's kind of the face 558 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 1: of the program down there. The dude can play. He 559 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: can play. If Greg Little's there at the Bengal spot 560 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: in the second round, you got to think about the guy. 561 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: You know, and we've talked about how it didn't work 562 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: out with Cedric boy he uh and Jake Fisher, but 563 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: it has worked out at other positions where you know 564 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: you double down to make sure you get at least one, 565 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: and you know there's a there's a ton of a 566 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 1: ton of instances of it. You look at Mohammed Sanu 567 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: uh and Jones that you know that that worked out 568 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: where both guys are still playing. I mean I go 569 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: back to uh, David Versor and Chris Collinsworth. Chris Collinsworn 570 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: in the second round. You know it's like, okay, well 571 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 1: we think versus a guy, but boy Collinsworth's right there 572 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: with him, He's there in the second round. Oh my gosh, 573 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: we gotta take him. I turned out, I've turned out 574 00:29:58,160 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: pretty well. I mean, there's been a lot of cases 575 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: when they doubled down, more cases of it working with 576 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: the football team than not. But tragically it didn't work 577 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: out of tackle for him last time. Spikes and Simmons. 578 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: Spikes and Simmons another good one. Two first round guys 579 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: that you know that that's got it done. I mean 580 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: C J. Zama and Tyler Croft. You know they're both 581 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: both signed long contracts five six million bucks a year, 582 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: you know, and their contract extensions. So you know, you 583 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: get you get that one, that one working out. It's 584 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: it wouldn't it wouldn't. It wouldn't stun me. It would 585 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 1: surprise me, but it wouldn't stun me if they did that. 586 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: So for what it's worth, I think you will be 587 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: right if White and Bush are gone. If Bush is 588 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: there at number eleven, I think that's what the Bengals 589 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: will do, So I will make him my pick in 590 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: the first round. And here's my thinking. You've only got 591 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: two first round linebackers in this draft, and then in 592 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: some you know, experts whatever mock drafts, the next linebacker 593 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: doesn't come up until the third round. So I think 594 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: there's a big drop off between the two guys at 595 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: the top and then the next wave. It was the 596 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: biggest weakness on one of the worst defenses in NFL history. 597 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: I think historically the Bengals would not look at an 598 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 1: undersized linebacker that high in the draft. But the game 599 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 1: is changing. You've got your nickel and dime defense on 600 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: the field about three quarters of the time. Now they 601 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: need a sideline to sideline speed guy in the run 602 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: game and in the passing game. And the last time 603 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: this defense was good was when the will linebacker was good, 604 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: back when Vontes was healthy and engaged and not suspended whatever. 605 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: So to me, if Devin Bush is there universally graded 606 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: as a first round guy, I know you don't like 607 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: the size, I get it, but I still think that's 608 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: the guy they'll take a number eleven. I think it 609 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: very well could be. I mean, he's going to be 610 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: talked about. And again, like we said, if White is there, 611 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: he's going to be talked about. It would not be 612 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: a bad pick. I just I think that the league 613 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: um trends and shifts, and I think with so much 614 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: sub package being played, I mean starting and I agree 615 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: with you. I mean, Vantz Berfick was a three down 616 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: starting will linebacker. Where's almost two hundred fifty pounds or 617 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: it was two fifty had a hard time stand at 618 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: two fifty two fifty five. This guy, this guy is 619 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: even looks smaller on tape than what is what his 620 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: measure measurements are. But like we talked about before, he's 621 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 1: overcome it at every level. Overcame it at high school, 622 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: overcame it in the in the Big Ten, you know, 623 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: overcame it against really good football teams. I honestly, I 624 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: don't see a big gap between White and Bush. A 625 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: lot of people do. I don't. I think they're very, very, 626 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: very similar. I would have no problem if they took 627 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: Devin Bush. I wouldn't. But I guess the old school 628 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: in me says man I just I just think, you know, 629 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick seems to be the guy that sets the 630 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: trends on a lot of ways. And you know when 631 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: he decided to just hunker down and throw that full 632 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: back back there and just started pounding people in that 633 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: running game, I think we want to see more and 634 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: more teams doing that against you know, the smaller sub packages, 635 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: because you're right, that's the way the league is now. 636 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: The league is seventy five to eighty percent nickel and 637 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: dime packages. That's just the way it's going, all right, 638 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: So you are taking Dillard or Jonah Williams if he's 639 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: there at number eleven, I'm taking Devin Bush. Let's go 640 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: to our dream scenario next. What would be the ideal 641 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: thing to happen the cards falling perfectly for the Bengals. 642 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: To me, it would be, you know, trade back they 643 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: number eleven comes Haskins. Is there? They getting multiple phone calls, 644 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: you know, like we said, you know, my Miami at 645 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: number thirteen, thinking hey we better trade up because Washington, 646 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: the Giants, I mean, be awesome. But the Bengals are 647 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: talking to Miami. Washington and the New York Giants pick 648 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: thirteen fifteen seventeen. You have three teams on the horn 649 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: saying Haskins is our guy. We've identified him as the 650 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: guy that we want to try to go get. And 651 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to be the case. I mean, 652 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: I don't think everybody is going to be interested in 653 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 1: moving up to a number eleven for Haskins. They've got Jones, 654 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: They've got a bunch of other guys that I'm sure 655 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: they're looking at. All teams are, But to me, that 656 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: would be unbelievable to move back to that to get 657 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: an extra third round pick because they own the sixth round, 658 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: but they don't have much currency, you know. Otherwise. As 659 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: my feeling is, and I agree with a lot of 660 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: people that I've talked to, this draft is about rounds 661 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: two through four. That's when the draft starts getting real serious. 662 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: And if you can have an extra pick in the 663 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: top ninety five picks or one hundred picks or whatever 664 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: the case may be, I think that would bode well 665 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,760 Speaker 1: for the Bengals. All right, so we are in complete 666 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: agreement on our dream scenario. Here's what I have written down. 667 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: Haskins is there, and Washington at number fifteen desperately wants him. 668 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: Alex Smith will be thirty five. Is careers in jeopardy 669 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: after the brutal leg injury last year. Right now, their 670 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are Colt McCoy and Josh Johnson. Not good. The 671 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 1: Dolphins are at thirteen. They're starting quarterback this year is 672 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: set to be Ryan Fitzpatrick. Not good. So the Redskins 673 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: decide we need to jump ahead of the Dolphins in 674 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: order to get Haskins. They make the deal with the Bengals. 675 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: So the Bengals move backward from eleven to fifteen. And 676 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: I looked at one of those NFL draft charts. The 677 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: eleventh pick in the draft, according to the one that 678 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,320 Speaker 1: I looked at, is worth twelve hundred and fifty points. 679 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: The fifteenth pick in the draft is worth ten fifties. 680 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: So there's a two hundred point difference between the Bengals 681 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: pick and the Redskins pick. The Redskins third round pick 682 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: is worth two hundred and ten points on the draft board. 683 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: So here's the deal. The Bengals move back, They get 684 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: the Redskins first round pick and third round pick, and 685 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: they give the Redskins one of their sixth to make 686 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: up that ten point difference. There's your deal. Now, the 687 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: bad thing, in my opinion, if they make this deal 688 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,919 Speaker 1: is that Bush will no longer be there. If there's 689 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 1: any chance he's there at eleven, I don't think he'll 690 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 1: be there at fifteen. So they lose out on the 691 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 1: chance to get Devin Bush, get lineman. You still get 692 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: your linemen. And what it does do is it allows 693 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 1: you to address four positions of need instead of three. 694 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: So to me, they desperately need a linebacker, they need 695 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: another defensive lineman, they desperately need an offensive tackle. And 696 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: to me, I think tight end is a huge area 697 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: of need because of Tyler Eifford's injury history. So now 698 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: you can hit all four of those spots in the 699 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: first three rounds by trading back four spots. I agree 700 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: with you. And also here's another factor, and next factor 701 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, the Josh Rosen factor at quarterback. There's no 702 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: way in hell I don't care they're saying, okay, well, 703 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: both these young quarterbacks would be on a rookie deal. 704 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: That quarterback room would be toxic. You got a guy 705 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 1: that was the tenth pick of the draft. I mean 706 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals last year moved from fifteen to thirteen 707 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: and gave up a third and a fifth rounder to 708 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 1: do it. So look at the inventory in the capitol 709 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: they gave up last year to move up to Josh Rosen. 710 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: Now you take a quarterback with the first pick of 711 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: the draft, Josh Rosen is not going to be an 712 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinal if they do that. I think it's interesting. 713 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: You know, Randy Moss when he was traded to New England, 714 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: he went for a physical to New England and people 715 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: found out about it. Got to start tracking. Is Josh 716 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: Rosen going anywhere this week before the draft? Because you 717 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 1: got to get a physical, make sure everything's okay there, 718 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: and they'll try to do it, you know, espionage undercover 719 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: as much as they possibly can. But there are already 720 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: a ton of teams, I'll guarantee you, Miami, Washington, the Giants, 721 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 1: they're all talking to Arizona. What would it take to 722 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: get Josh Rosen? Because if Josh Rosen came out in 723 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: this draft, he would have either been the number one 724 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 1: or number two quarterback in this draft. So Josh Rosen 725 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: could significantly affect two drafts in a row. A team 726 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: moved up five spots from fifteen to ten to get 727 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: on now they're going to trade them, and he'll affect 728 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: the order of the quarterbacks potentially, you know, in this 729 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: year's draft. So I think that Josh Rosen factor could 730 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: be massive and the Bengals will be dealing with that 731 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 1: a little bit, as will everybody else. With eleven overall picks, 732 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: When did the Bengals pick a quarterback? Not until Day three. 733 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be Day one or day two, because, 734 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: like you said, the needs, the other needs they have, 735 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: um you know, they'll they'll address it. And I think 736 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: I think that, uh, I think that not only I 737 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: don't think offensive tackler. I think linebacker. I think offensive 738 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: line linebacker. They could double down in multiple spots with 739 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: eleven picks. If they trade back and get twelve, they 740 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: can double down in three spots and still have six 741 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,800 Speaker 1: other picks. Of course, you know a bunch would be 742 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: in the sixth round, but they'd still have a bunch 743 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: of picks to deal with. So that'd be interesting if 744 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: it could, if it could pan out that way. I 745 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 1: really think when it comes to quarterback the Bengals, I 746 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 1: think let's build it up around Andy Dalton for one 747 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: more shot. We still believe in him. We still think 748 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 1: he's a guy that in twenty fifteen could have not 749 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: only won a playoff game, but maybe won several playoff 750 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: games before he broke his thumb. That's how well the 751 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: team was playing that year. So I think their approach is, 752 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: we've got a new offensive minded coaching staff, let's build 753 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: up the talent around Andy and take a run at it. 754 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,800 Speaker 1: And that's why I don't think they'll take Haskins or 755 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 1: anybody with one of their top, you know, couple of picks. 756 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,520 Speaker 1: I do think they'll take one. I'm thinking maybe the 757 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 1: fifth round, same round they took a J. McCarron, some 758 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: sort of you know Gardner Minshoe Greer from West Virginia, 759 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: somebody in that you know, that realm that they think, 760 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: you know, this is a guy that that looks more 761 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 1: like a really good potential backup quarterback that you could 762 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: win with if you had to. But let's hold off 763 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 1: on using one of our top picks for now. Yeah, 764 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: And I think if you go with Kyler Murray, if 765 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: Arizona goes with him, they are committing to a specific 766 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: style of offense that they're going to run. It's like, 767 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 1: you know, look at look at what Washington did. They 768 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: won RG three and they went Kirk Cousins in the 769 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: same draft, and it worked out where Kirk Cousins was 770 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 1: the guy that went to the Pro Bowl and made 771 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: all the money in RG three flamed out with an injury. 772 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: RG three was a straight line track guy, but he 773 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: didn't have to make him miss. He couldn't even slide. 774 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,240 Speaker 1: RG three couldn't slide to the ground to protect himself. Weird. 775 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,759 Speaker 1: You know, as athletic as he was, wasn't athletic enough 776 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: to do some simple things. But they're two different style 777 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks. RG three gets injured, you have you have 778 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: to have two different separate offenses. And that's what you're 779 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: doing with Kyler Murray in most cases. You know, Baker 780 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,399 Speaker 1: Mayfield is a Kyler Murray type guy. Obviously they did 781 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: the same things at Oklahoma. But if you have a 782 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: real that that type of quarterback, I mean to me, 783 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: you're making a huge commitment if you're the Arizona Cardinals 784 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: to say, all right, we're gonna junk everything. Cliff Kingsbury 785 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 1: is a quarterback guru. He has an offensive philosophy of 786 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: Texas Tech. You know he's gonna throw it he's gonna 787 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 1: have a mobile quarterback that can change the launch point. 788 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be interesting. It will be very interesting 789 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,359 Speaker 1: to see what they do with the other people at 790 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: the quarterback position, because if he goes down, what do 791 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 1: you got? Then you're gonna have to implement a whole 792 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: new style of offense that Cliff Kingsbury doesn't necessarily even 793 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: want to implement. All right, you ready to take a 794 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 1: stab at the Bengal second and third round picks. Let's 795 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 1: go with the second round. This is the forty second 796 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,320 Speaker 1: pick overall. Now, admittedly this is really a crapshoot. You 797 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: don't know you know who's going to get selected before 798 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,760 Speaker 1: the Bengals are on the board with the forty second 799 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: pick overall, But what the heck, we'll take a shot 800 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 1: the Bengals second round selection. So let's say that you 801 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: know your first round selection comes true and they have 802 00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: taken Dillard, the offensive tackle from Washington State. Who do 803 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,840 Speaker 1: you see them taking then in the second round? In 804 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 1: the second round, I could see him if he's there, 805 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 1: and I don't think he will be. I think he's 806 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: gonna be late one early two Dexter Lawrence Clemson six 807 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: four three hundred and forty two pounds. He's got a 808 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:21,000 Speaker 1: seven foot wingspan exactly defensive defensive line. Um, he's he's 809 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: he's a load. There's no question about it. He's he's 810 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: he's a factor. I mean, Clemson could literally have four 811 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: defensive linemen. Three of them probably going to be first round, 812 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: the fourth might be. If not, he's going to go 813 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: early in the second if only two go all, all 814 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: four of them going to be gone very early in 815 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: the second round. And this this guy is uh, you know, 816 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 1: a little over five flat forty. It's not like he's 817 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 1: a you know, he's a he's a big old hog 818 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: that can't move. He's a he's got some significant long arms, 819 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: big hands, big old muckers. When he grabs you, he 820 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 1: puts you in the vice. You know, he can he 821 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: can leverage you when he locks you out. And that's 822 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 1: that's the thing that you that's that's key as well. 823 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: Not only a big body guy. He gets his big 824 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: hands on you and he bench presses you away from 825 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: him and you're seven feet away. He's got separation. He 826 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 1: can discard you, you know, shuck you like an era 827 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: corn and be right in the right in the place 828 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: to make a play. So that would be my dream 829 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: pick in the second round would be Dexter Lawrence. But 830 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,319 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that's gonna happen. I think 831 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 1: that is a pipe dream. And you know, potentially if 832 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: a guy like Mack Wilson might be there out of 833 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: Alabama and the linebacker out of Alabama, UM, you know, 834 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 1: go go that route. Six pounds, not caught, not as 835 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 1: fast as the others for seven ish type guy, but great, 836 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: you know football IQ. Um. You know another guy in 837 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: and out of Notre Dame. Um, I don't think he's 838 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: second round. I think he's a little bit later. He 839 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: might be my third round guy. But Tevn Coney out 840 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 1: of out of Notre Dame would be a linebacker type 841 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 1: guy that they might go if they don't go you know, 842 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,839 Speaker 1: Devin Bush in the first round. I know Coney came 843 00:43:59,880 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: in for a visit, so clearly they're at least kicking 844 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,880 Speaker 1: the tires on him. Yeah, I mean I think I 845 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 1: think he would be a you know, a good possibility there. 846 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: So I think another defensive lineman in the in the 847 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 1: third round potentially is Western Illinois Klin Saunders, big guy, 848 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, a little under six one, three hundred twenty 849 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: five pounds, very athletic. I mean, if he's there in 850 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 1: the third round, they could be going that route if 851 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: they go linebacker and round two defensive line. I think 852 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: if they go offensive lineman with the first pick, they 853 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: start attacking defense with the second and third round. With 854 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: the deficiencies we're talking about, and if there is some 855 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 1: some edge rusher in some way, shape or form that 856 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 1: has slid to they're picking the second round, I think 857 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,760 Speaker 1: they jump on it and then you know, then there's 858 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: obviously a little bit of a drop off from that 859 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 1: edge rush standpoint. That's why you know, even though these 860 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 1: guys have medical issues potentially um you know, Sweat and Gary, 861 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 1: you still have to talk about him at eleven because 862 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 1: once those four guys go, it's it's a drop, just 863 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: like the two line backers a drop. The four edge 864 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: guys a drop. But those might only be a couple 865 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: of edge guys because of the injury factor. It's going 866 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 1: to be interesting to see how it all plays out. 867 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: And we know that every team has a different philosophy. 868 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: Some guys will take these guys off the board if 869 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: they have this type of injury. You know, I shoulder 870 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: problem or particularly a hard issue. Others were got no 871 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: problem in role. But I've already heard a lot of 872 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: Bengals fans and other people around the league and said 873 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: to me, are they gonna draft another injured player? Ll 874 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: they drafted Billy Price last year and look what happened. 875 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 1: You know, they're gonna draft another injury player. Well it 876 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 1: wasn't his pack. He had another injury. And you just 877 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: you can't control injuries. You can't you know, determine. Oh yeah, boy, 878 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 1: in the future, he's gonna have, you know, Liz Frank 879 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: type problem. And you know, but I think I think 880 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:50,239 Speaker 1: Bengals fans would like to see guys that are one 881 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,359 Speaker 1: physically cleaned from an injury standpoint, being that eleventh pick 882 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 1: in the draft, and maybe even the second and the 883 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 1: third rounder. I get it a way. He had the 884 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 1: torn acl John Ross was injured before the Bengals took him. 885 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: Price tourist pack doing the bench press at the Combine. 886 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 1: So there has been a recent history there is, and 887 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, I think, I think when you look 888 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: at it, that's another reason I like Dillard Clean is 889 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,759 Speaker 1: a whistle, you know, the big lineman. I think the 890 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: offensive line guys are pretty clean. I'm not saying that 891 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 1: you know, Bush or White have any injury history, but 892 00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 1: when you look at it, you think, all right, from 893 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 1: a durability standpoint, over the long haul the pounding in 894 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 1: the National Football League, a big, strong offensive lineman or 895 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,720 Speaker 1: an undersized linebacker that's going to be battling those hog molleys, 896 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: you know, day after day after day. I think, you 897 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 1: know again again, I guess I'm thinking old school, um, 898 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: but I do think I think the league is gonna 899 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 1: said it a couple of times now. I think it 900 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: is gonna go Bill Belichick through it out there. Everybody's 901 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,640 Speaker 1: going to have a full back, slashed height end guy, 902 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, wing back type that they can line up 903 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:01,720 Speaker 1: in that I formation with the Bengals, Hubbard, Sam Herbert 904 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,759 Speaker 1: going there and just start pounding those little bodies, you know, 905 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,319 Speaker 1: for Joe Mixon and Giovanni Bernard. All right, my second 906 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,440 Speaker 1: round pick, after I've taken Devin Bush eleventh overall, I'm 907 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 1: going to take one of the two second round tackles 908 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:17,760 Speaker 1: that you mentioned earlier, so Titus Howard from Alabama State. 909 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 1: The Bengals historically don't like the small school guys. I 910 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,399 Speaker 1: get it, but everything else looks good. He's big, six 911 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: five three twenty He faced Auburn at Alabama State, did 912 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 1: not give up any sacks or pressures in that game, 913 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: graded out very well at the Senior Bowl. So yep, 914 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 1: so Titus Howard. If he's gone, then Greg Little. You 915 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: mentioned him from Ole Miss, the bug a boo from 916 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 1: like a Bad Mojo. Perspective with him is that he's 917 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: from Cedrical Boy's High School, but he was the number 918 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 1: one offensive line recruit in the country, went to Ole Miss. 919 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 1: Long arms thirty five and a quarter inch arms, eighty 920 00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 1: five inch wing span, longest arms of any tackle, good feat. 921 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: Maybe didn't play as well as the measurables in his 922 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: college career, a little bit inconsistent, maybe a little more 923 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 1: of a finesse guy than you would like. But second round, 924 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,359 Speaker 1: you're hoping that Jim Turner can get him to play 925 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 1: up to his potential. I think Little will be there. 926 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,879 Speaker 1: I don't think Howard will. I don't know Howard's There's 927 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 1: no secret with Howard anymore. It's out. The dude is 928 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: He's I think, got a potential to be special, And 929 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 1: like I said, he's the face of that Alabama State 930 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,640 Speaker 1: team three time captain. What does that tell you about 931 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: the guy? So you're talking about all of those traits 932 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 1: and characteristics. If if I knew he were there in 933 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 1: the second round, I wouldn't even mess with the tackle 934 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,920 Speaker 1: in the first round. I think I think he I 935 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 1: would not go eleven. I would not go to eleven 936 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: with Titus Howard. I think that is a little bit 937 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: too rich. But man, I'd do a one SEA on 938 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: him all day, every day. I'd do a two A 939 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: on him. And that's why I'm not sure if the 940 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: Bengals are gonna be able to experience him at that 941 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: stage of the second round. I think they do have 942 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 1: a better chance of getting little That's why I thought. 943 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 1: You know, I'm thinking, man, if they if they go 944 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 1: that route, um, you know, people people are It's it's 945 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: almost a split camp. Cordy Glenn underachieves. Wasn't wasn't you know? Engaged? 946 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:18,320 Speaker 1: Wasn't this? Wasn't that? Um. Bobby Hart signing was caused 947 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 1: as much negativity in Bengaldoom as a lot of recent signings. 948 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 1: For sure, you know, maybe they do go two tackles, 949 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 1: but with other needs that would that would be a 950 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 1: surprise for sure. All right to the third round, the 951 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:36,440 Speaker 1: seventy second pick overall in the draft. You're on the clock, 952 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,959 Speaker 1: Dave Lapham, who do you select? Well again, I'm gonna 953 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna either go um if I go defensive lineman 954 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,360 Speaker 1: Lawrence in the in the in the third round, if 955 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 1: he's a second round if he's there, I'm gonna go linebacker. 956 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 1: If I go, uh linebacker in the second round, like 957 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 1: I was talking about with Mack Wilson, Uh, then I'll 958 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: go a defensive lineman in the third round. So my 959 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: my third round defensive lineman is Klin Saunders, big boy 960 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: out of Western Illinois, a little under six one three, 961 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: under twenty five pounds, very athletic. I thought, I think 962 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: the Bengals, you know, being right at the cusp of 963 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: three A or beginning of end of three A or 964 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,560 Speaker 1: beginning of three B, that would be a you know, 965 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 1: a decent pick for them. And if he's not available, 966 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 1: then I would go with Coney as a as a 967 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: third round linebacker. I think that's good value. I think 968 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,160 Speaker 1: second round might be is too rich for him. I 969 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,720 Speaker 1: think third round value value for a guy like Coney 970 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 1: would be there. He's very, very intelligent football IQ as 971 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 1: well as overall IQ having matriculated at Notre Dame. All right, 972 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: in the third round, I am going back to Michigan. 973 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: Two of my top three picks are going to be 974 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: from Michigan. I'm going for Chase Winovich as my edge rusher. 975 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,120 Speaker 1: Pro football focus would be doing cartwheels. They've actually got 976 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: him as a late first round on their top two 977 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty players board. Most of the other boards 978 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 1: that you look at seem to think he's a second round, 979 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,280 Speaker 1: third round guy. So I'm I'm saying that he somehow 980 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 1: slides to seventy two because he's a little under size 981 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,640 Speaker 1: six three two fifty six but tests off the charts 982 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: four point five nine speed, great production at Michigan, more 983 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: productive than Gary even though Gary's going to be the 984 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: first round pick. So and they did bring in Winovich 985 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 1: for a visit, so they're interested in him. I think 986 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: they get Bush in the first round, either Howard or 987 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 1: Little in the second, and Chase Winovich falls to them 988 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 1: at number seventy two overall as an edge rusher, I'm 989 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,759 Speaker 1: seeing him and everybody's top fifty now I think I 990 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,359 Speaker 1: don't think if he's there, I would jump on that, 991 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 1: but I don't think. I don't think he's gonna be there. 992 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 1: But that would be that would be amazing if he would, 993 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 1: if he would be there, But again he's he's he's 994 00:51:46,800 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 1: no secret anymore. And he really wasn't a secret. I mean, 995 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 1: he was the guy that was was, you know, putting 996 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: on all the pressure. Richard gary Is was the number 997 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: one recruit out of high school Rochard gary He was 998 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: the number one guy in the country. And he didn't perform, 999 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:05,800 Speaker 1: like I said, great measurables, just good performance. Oneevich has good, 1000 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: very good measurables. Great performance. I mean, that's what you're 1001 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,719 Speaker 1: looking for. I would I would run to the bank 1002 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 1: if he were there at number three, Dan, that would 1003 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 1: be awesome, that would be a real dream. But I 1004 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,919 Speaker 1: just I'd be stunned if he's there. So if not 1005 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 1: one of the other good edge rushers that slide, you know, 1006 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 1: there's going to be somebody that the Bengals have a 1007 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 1: second round grade on that's there in the third round 1008 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,239 Speaker 1: because their board is different from other people's boards. There'll 1009 00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:39,160 Speaker 1: be somebody Jalen Ferguson from Louisiana Tech. You know, forty 1010 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: five career sacks, but a small school guy in Conference USA. 1011 00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: Maybe he slides, he's another guy they brought in for 1012 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 1: a visit. But somebody like that that the Bengals like 1013 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 1: more than other teams. And he's there at number seventy two. Yeah, 1014 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,879 Speaker 1: I mean there's there's always somebody that the light goes on, 1015 00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 1: or they were used improperly, like at Oliver was abused 1016 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,520 Speaker 1: at Houston. I mean, I couldn't believe they had him 1017 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: playing over the nose in the defensive line. He is 1018 00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: a three technique by everybody's standards and everybody's measurements. And 1019 00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: you talk to me, that says a lot about his 1020 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 1: character that he would do that and not bitchman and 1021 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 1: complaining every single day of his football life at Houston. 1022 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: So he's a team guy, you know, and that to 1023 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 1: me that that's a plus for him. But you hate 1024 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:27,000 Speaker 1: to see things like that. A lot of times guys 1025 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 1: are stuck in a system at college. I mean, you know, 1026 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 1: the legendary Paul Brown went in scouted Booby Clark at 1027 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: Bethune Cookman and they were playing him at tight end 1028 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 1: and he's like, huh, that guy, that guy's a fullback. 1029 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:43,280 Speaker 1: I've always had, you know, maryon Motley, the big body 1030 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:48,959 Speaker 1: Booby Clark is my fullback. So talent evaluators, Paul Brown, 1031 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 1: Bill wallsh they'll see a guy and say, he's this 1032 00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:55,160 Speaker 1: in my scheme, in my West Coast offense, he's this. 1033 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,479 Speaker 1: Even though they haven't doing that, they're wasting this guy. 1034 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:00,879 Speaker 1: And that's where that's where you're making your money. That's 1035 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,320 Speaker 1: why you know, people are saying there are so many 1036 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 1: prospects in this draft. Rounds two, three, and four, that's 1037 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 1: where you're going to make your money. And third and 1038 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,800 Speaker 1: fourth round are going to be very, very interesting for 1039 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 1: every team, including the Cincinnati Bengals. Final question for you, 1040 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: do you think that the coaching change has a big 1041 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 1: impact on the draft? You know, I think so for 1042 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: the reason I said before, the ten of them were 1043 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 1: in the college ranks as coaches last year. That's great 1044 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:35,240 Speaker 1: intel for Duke Tobin and his people. But I think, honestly, 1045 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:39,840 Speaker 1: I think this year in particulars as this staff was assembled, 1046 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 1: it was assembled fairly late. Marvin Lewis had his way 1047 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: of doing things in a draft room, coming from the 1048 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers, the Baltimore Ravens. Obviously, you know Zach was 1049 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 1: with the Rams and some of the coaches and staffed 1050 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:58,399 Speaker 1: with other organizations, but not necessarily having the involvement they 1051 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: had here with the Bengals. In my mind, this will 1052 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 1: be more of a Duke Tobin draft. I think Duke 1053 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 1: is going to drive this draft like he's never driven 1054 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,280 Speaker 1: a draft. I think he's in. He's the bus driver. 1055 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: He's driving the bus. And I'm not saying that the 1056 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,800 Speaker 1: coaches won't have any input. They'll have a lot of input. 1057 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 1: Like I said from a oh, I know this about 1058 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,279 Speaker 1: this guy that nobody else knows. I was with him 1059 00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:21,399 Speaker 1: for four years. I was with him for three years. 1060 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: I know all about this guy. But I think I 1061 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: think that in terms of, you know, decision making, and 1062 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 1: I think Duke's Duke's vote is going to carry a 1063 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: lot of weight. You know, with Mike Brown, as he's 1064 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,319 Speaker 1: making his final decisions, everybody will get up and still 1065 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 1: give their pitches. And but I think I think the 1066 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,760 Speaker 1: relationship between Duke and his scouts and the coaching staff 1067 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 1: is in its early infancy stages. You know, it's it's 1068 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: going through a metamorphosis for sure. So I think the 1069 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 1: guy that is going to steer the ship, that has 1070 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:54,160 Speaker 1: all the experience is Duke Tobin. We've been talking about 1071 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:57,439 Speaker 1: the draft for nearly an hour. I could do another hour. 1072 00:55:57,800 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 1: This is fun, I know, that's why that's why they 1073 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 1: get great ratings. I mean, everybody, everybody, uh, you know, 1074 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:04,759 Speaker 1: wants to see what the new blood is going to 1075 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 1: be with their particular franchise. And I do think that 1076 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 1: a lot of organizations around the league, of the Bengals 1077 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 1: being one of them, have had some success in some 1078 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,840 Speaker 1: a lot of success with the draft, draft, develop and retain, 1079 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 1: you know, getting those second contracts, the second bite of 1080 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 1: the apple. And in a lot of cases, like we 1081 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:24,799 Speaker 1: talked about, you know, Croft has done it elsewhere. Other 1082 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:27,759 Speaker 1: guys Birkhead is going to be doing it elsewhere. But 1083 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:31,839 Speaker 1: the Bengals for a good part of last year had 1084 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 1: the most players on the NFL rosters that they originally 1085 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 1: brought into the league through draft and college free agents 1086 00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,840 Speaker 1: that they signed than any other team in the National 1087 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 1: Football League. That speaks to what Duke Tobin, his guys 1088 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: and the coaching staff and everybody involved with the draft. 1089 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,080 Speaker 1: That speaks volumes, I mean, tip of the cap to 1090 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:54,839 Speaker 1: their their process. Their process has been working. Next week 1091 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: we'll talk about all the guys they picked. That'll be 1092 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,520 Speaker 1: fun too. Here you go, you get your you get 1093 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 1: your Chris presence, and then you get a chance to 1094 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 1: unwrap them and take them out in the field and 1095 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 1: see what they look like. But it's like it is, 1096 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 1: it's like Santa Claus and say, oh, what present are 1097 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 1: we going to get here at linebacker? What are we 1098 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 1: going to get here at this position group? So it's 1099 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 1: an interesting dynamic.
