1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio. 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 2: Well, that's right, you heard the man. It is that 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,479 Speaker 2: time of week. My name is Bernie Frattle. We are 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 2: Comedy Alive from the Fox Sports Radio compound here in 5 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 2: Las Vegas, and we'll take you up to three am Pacific, 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,799 Speaker 2: six am Eastern. I think I've probably got about eight 7 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: hours worth of content tonight, but we will squeeze it 8 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 2: into four. We're gonna get to all of it. Any 9 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 2: big stories that I might have missed. Oh, by the way, 10 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: let me let me just start by saying this, We've 11 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: got some good news and we've got some bad news. Well, 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: the good news is, you see, the biggest saga facing 13 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 2: America since John Benet, Ramsey, Tanya Harding and the Lindberg 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: Baby has in fact now been reconciled. Shudor Sanders was drafted. 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: Now let me start by saying, I like Shdoor Sanders. 16 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if he's going to translate to the NFL, 17 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: and I'll bring plenty of receipts. I covered the Lions 18 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: for fourteen years ten in an official capacity, covered drafts 19 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: pre and posed for tenn I saw a lot, talked 20 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: a lot, and yes, I've been talking a lot to 21 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: a lot of people, not just this week, but for months. 22 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: Sanders did have to wait five rounds before getting drafted. 23 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: You know how they do those winners and losers draft articles. 24 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: What if Sanders falls into both categories, and I'll explain 25 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 2: the good dudes again again. He had to wait five 26 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: rounds before getting drafted, And the irony is he's not 27 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 2: in a bad spot all things considered. He's got a 28 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 2: realistic chance to make a name for himself with the Browns. 29 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: Will he beat out Joe Flacco? No, he will not 30 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: beat out Joe Flacco. Will he beat out Kenny Pickett? No, 31 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 2: he will not beat out Kenny Pickett. Deshaun Watson at 32 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: this point, you might as well just trade Deshaun Watson 33 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 2: for a horse and did shoot the horse. I don't 34 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: really mean that I'm doing radio, Okay, I don't really 35 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: mean that. Horse lovers. I love horses. I love mister Red, 36 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: I love the mall. Okay, work with me. We're just 37 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: having a little fun here on a Saturday night, Sunday morning, 38 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: depending on where you may be listening. So, Dylan Gabriel, 39 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,679 Speaker 2: I think in Shudoor Sanders will ballot out for some 40 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: sort of role on that team. But in the best 41 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: case scenario, Sanders somehow finds his way in the field 42 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: this year, maybe even starts a game. We'll see the 43 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 2: worst case scenario, they're not gonna cut him, but he 44 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: might be on the bench, but he'll get to learn 45 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco knows a thing or two. Okay, laugh, clown laughed, 46 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco can play. The likelihood though, of a you know, 47 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 2: a guy like Joe Flacco make it to the entire 48 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: season without so much as a hangnail is not likely. 49 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: So Sanders is gonna get a chance, which is all 50 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: you can ask for in life, an opportunity, and you 51 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 2: make the most of your opportunity, which he said he 52 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 2: would do. Now the bad news, Yes, the good news 53 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: Shodor Sanders was drafted, But the bad news is he 54 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: basically lost out on about thirteen million dollars. See if 55 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: Shador Sanders had been taken in the first round, let's 56 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 2: say what the twenty first pick, he would have gotten 57 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: a rookie contract with about eighteen million dollars. Instead, he 58 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 2: was taken in the fifth round, and now he'll be 59 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 2: getting a four year deal that's worth roughly five million, 60 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: which is a million less than he made his nil 61 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 2: deal last year at Colorado. Also, he got drafted. You 62 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 2: tell me, you tell me if this is a feel 63 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: good moment, it is, but it is it. He got 64 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: drafted by a team that passed him over six times 65 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: before they actually decided to take him. All right, that happens, well, 66 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: does it? But that wouldn't be the end of the world. 67 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: And still not the end of the world. Wouldn't be 68 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: so bad if he'd been the only quarterback the Browns drafted. 69 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: But hell, they actually took one before, when they selected 70 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: Dylan Gabriel lot of Oregon at ninety fourth overall. I 71 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: don't know why everybody's been pissing all over Dylan Gabriel today. 72 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: He's small. No, he's not. He's a good player. He's 73 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: a hell of a player. Did a lot of Oregon. 74 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: He went into ann Arbor and picked apart that Wolverine defense. 75 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: I don't think Shudor Sanders would have done that. So 76 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: this is a bit of a bizarre draft strategy the 77 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: Browns have. What are you gonna do? I'll tell you 78 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna watch. I already can't 79 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: wait for the NFL season. I will tell you this, though, 80 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 2: I will hope memo to HBO get Cleveland on Hard Knocks. 81 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: Who else would you rather have than Cleveland on Hard Knocks? 82 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: All right, I've said my piece. Well let's get to 83 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,119 Speaker 2: the elephant in the room. Why the slide? All right? 84 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 2: I live in Vegas. I know a year last year, 85 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 2: you know, in May Shoodoor Sanders was listed at the 86 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: odds on favorite to be the first player picked overall. 87 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: Why that I meant nothing that in fifty cents, I'll 88 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: get you a cup of coffee Crystal Burger. That's a 89 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 2: market line put out by a you know, a book 90 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: maker who's not on the prediction business, who's not on 91 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 2: a fortune telling business. He's in the business to maximize 92 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: profit and minimize risk. So that wasn't necessarily a predictor. 93 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: And look, if someone's got better data than me, feel 94 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 2: free to tweet, aut in he or whatever, do whatever 95 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: you got to even call during the midnight hour. I 96 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 2: talked to a lot of people in the last five months. 97 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: What if I told you I was told by a 98 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: mole that I trust that she George Sanders ran a 99 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: four eight forty. That's why he didn't go to all 100 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: these pre workouts and et cetera. That again, that in 101 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 2: and of itself doesn't matter. He could still be a 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame quarterback. I'd run a four eight to forty. 103 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 2: But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Why the slide? 104 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 2: This is the story. What in the hell happened here 105 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: that caused everybody, from mel Kuiper to the to President 106 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 2: Trump to lose? Everybody weighted on this is if it 107 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 2: was some god given right that Shudor Sanders has to 108 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 2: be drafted in the top five because his PR team 109 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 2: said so, because sanders agents said so, because the group 110 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 2: think echo chambers started to leak, and when one person 111 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 2: said it, another person repeated it. The notion he was 112 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: ever going to be drafted second or third overall is preposterous. 113 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. There are objective truths and there are personal feelings. 114 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 2: We're gonna deal with facts tonight, not feelings. And let 115 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 2: me get something else off my chest while I'm at it, 116 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: because there was so much michigas after Friday's draft, when 117 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 2: Shudoor Sanders not only you know, made it through Thursday undrafted, 118 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: but Friday, oh my god, the teeth gnashing there must 119 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: be conspiracy. There must be collusions. Well, Sue, let's call 120 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: Johnny cochrane. We can't have this. He's got a god. 121 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: They've been right to be drafted high. We all said 122 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 2: it was so. Yeah. The only people this is these 123 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: are the facts. The only people who seemed confident that 124 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: Sanders would be a top ten selection. Again, I'll repeat 125 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: where Sanders, Shiloh Sanders, Dion Sanders, Deon Sanders, Junior Shador Sanders, 126 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: Colonel Sanders, anybody named Sanders and his agents and his 127 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: PR team. You know, Chador had opportunities at the Shrine 128 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: Bowl in the Combine to compete and prove he was 129 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 2: ready to lead an NFL team right away maybe next season, 130 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 2: and he opted against both. You know what, you don't 131 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: hide strength in life. Instead, he was claiming his college 132 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 2: tape was all NFL teams needed to see. Now, one 133 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 2: of the things they kept coming up last night was, oh, Hooker, 134 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: thirty two teams passed at him three rounds in a row. Okay, 135 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw my first flag. Thirty two teams did 136 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 2: not pass on them in this draft. If you just 137 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 2: take a closer look, at least twenty of those thirty 138 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: two teams were not in the market for a quarterback. 139 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: Not up in here, not here, no way. Maybe twelve, 140 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 2: more like eight. So you can say between eight and 141 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: twelve teams passed on them the first three rounds, the 142 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: first two days and including into the fourth round, but 143 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: not thirty two. So lose that narrative because it's false. 144 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 2: It's playing fast and loose with the truth. One team 145 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 2: passed on them six times, they ended up drafting them. 146 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 2: The second thing is, and this was coming out of 147 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: the mouths of a lot of talking heads on TV 148 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 2: that I actually respect. I'm not going to name names, 149 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 2: but these are guys I think to do a clean 150 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: job that have been around, and they kept saying, oh, 151 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 2: it's personal, Well now it's personal. Yeah, it must say 152 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 2: it's personal. Hello, it's always personal. As someone who covered 153 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: ten drafts the Lions, it's part of the pre and 154 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: post covered the organization for fourteen years, kept all my 155 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 2: foot Look, you have no idea to scrutiny they put 156 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 2: these guys through. You know, Shdarra Sanders may never start 157 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: a game in the NFL. He's gonna get five million bucks. Okay, 158 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: that's good work if you can get it. So the 159 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 2: truth of the matter is, you know what I'm and 160 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: I'm later on in the show, maybe probably closer to 161 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 2: the one Am hour, I'm going to share with you 162 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: exactly how the NFL evaluates draft prospects. And a lot 163 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: of it is scouting in film reviews. A lot of 164 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 2: it's the combine which he led them not to go 165 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: to Schador character background and say and I know, shoot, 166 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: door has never been in trouble. Whoop? Do you damn? 167 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 3: Do? 168 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 2: Is that the new standard? Well, it has never been 169 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: in trouble. Okay, great, that's your baseline. Okay, I want 170 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 2: to go back to what I said. It's always personal. 171 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 2: It's always personal. You get to know these guys and 172 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: they you got to fall in love with them. Now 173 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 2: I'll tell you how personal it is. I believe it 174 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: was the two thousand I'm gonna say it was a 175 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 2: two thousand and sixth sixth draft. The Lions passed down 176 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: a defensive player. Wait for it, I'm gonna give you 177 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 2: the reason. This is the level of scrutiny. And while 178 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: it's always personal, the Lions passed on in the two 179 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 2: thousand and six draft. This is Rod Marinelli's first year 180 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 2: because the player had wait for it, bad breath, true 181 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: story spoke. It set something about the player that just 182 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 2: turned the Lions off towards the Lions. You know that 183 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: was two years later they would go oh in sixteen 184 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: and the rest is history. We don't need to go 185 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: down that road. So the truth of the matter is 186 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 2: this slide happened because it was never supposed to happen 187 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: in the first place. The only people are not in cake. 188 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 2: That's bad English. The slide happened because the notion that 189 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: he would be a top five or top ten. Nobody 190 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: I talked to connected to the NFL who didn't have 191 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 2: an agenda did not great him as a first round pick. 192 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: And if you've listened to my show the last six weeks, 193 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 2: I've said that. I've said, look, he didn't have that 194 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 2: one elite tool, he doesn't have that one superpower. There 195 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: are a lot of other things I'm not going to break. 196 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: And you know what he's going to get on the field. Good. 197 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: I'm glad he got drafted. Don't tell me, show me 198 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 2: all right. Shador thought all NFL teams needed to see 199 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 2: was his college table. Turned out it wasn't. And frankly, 200 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: I will say this about Shudor his approach to the 201 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 2: pre draft process should be a lesson and what not 202 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: to do for future quarterbacks. You know, by the way, 203 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: for those who thought the NFL was teaching Shudor a lesson, 204 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 2: now they don't teach lessons. They want too busy trying 205 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 2: to win games. If you think there was collusion, if 206 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: you think there was some conspiracy, you're out of your mind. 207 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: These owners can't agree where to go for lunch, much 208 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 2: less have somebody dictate, dictate one of these guys dictate 209 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 2: to another another one of these billionaires who to take 210 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: or who not to take. Okay, this though, should be 211 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 2: a bit of a primer and a cautionary tale for 212 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 2: what not to do. If you're a future quarterback and 213 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: you really want to be in the NFL. You just 214 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: cannot simply declare yourself something you aren't and hope nobody 215 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 2: checks you on it. The reality here is Sanders is 216 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 2: a good football player. He's a quality prospect. He's someone 217 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 2: who could theoretically eventually turned into a functional starter so 218 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 2: long as he's surrounded by talent and a good offensive line. 219 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: But the questions about his arm talent, his size, his 220 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: pocket processing, and general overconfidence were very real. If you 221 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 2: don't like that hearing that, that is a you problem. 222 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 2: And by the way, I hope someone's done a wellness 223 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 2: check on mel Kuiper. I like mel Kuiper forty years 224 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: ago he created a cottage industry which has now become 225 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: a conglomerate. But man, did he lose his mind. We're 226 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: going to get to that later. Be ready to roll 227 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: tonight in the midnight hour. Coming up in about forty 228 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 2: six minutes. I'm going to take the shador in a 229 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: different angle and let you be judge jury and judge 230 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: and jury. All right, you'll see the angle I'm gonna 231 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 2: go down. You're gonna like and it'll draw from milk 232 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: Kuiper's rant.

Mark, 257 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 2: I want to pick up where I left off last week. 258 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: I made a bold statement that I believed that the 259 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 2: Clippers actually had a more favorable path to getting past 260 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 2: the Nuggets than the Lakers did against the Timberwolves. So 261 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 2: right out of the gate, today and just fantastic. Is 262 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: so clipper esque fashion, fall behind by twenty lose on 263 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 2: a slam dunk buzzer beater first time in NBA history. 264 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 2: They were so in love with all the three point 265 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: they made last game, they tried it again today or Saturday. 266 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 2: I think, you know where I'm trying to go with this. 267 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: Let's start with the Clippers. Mark. They're a good team, 268 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: but they I don't know what it is and what 269 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 2: you got the floor? 270 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, what it is is that this is 271 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 5: a competitive series that's going to keep going back and forth. 272 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 5: And what's going to happen in Game five and Tuesday 273 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 5: is anybody's guests, Because I think the first two games 274 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 5: established it was going to go down to the wire. 275 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 5: It's going to come down a single few possessions. But 276 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 5: then when the Clippers blew the Nuggets out in Game three, 277 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 5: I thought, you know what, the Nuggets are gas and 278 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 5: the Clippers are finally healthy and ready to turn it 279 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 5: up a notch. And then all of a sudden that 280 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 5: thought will up in my face today when we saw 281 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 5: the Nuggets, you know, prevail in theatrical fashion. He mentioned, 282 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 5: you know, this is the first time in NBA history 283 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 5: basically since the play by player that there was a 284 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 5: game winning buzzer beating dunk and thanks to Aaron Gordon 285 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 5: for catching Nikole Jokic's airball or as Aaron Gordon said, 286 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 5: a really nice pass. But it preludes that. I mean, 287 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 5: the Nuggets are very resilient. Obviously, Nikoli Jokic, he's always 288 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 5: going to put up numbers with points and with rebounds 289 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 5: and assists. But I thought early in the series everyone 290 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 5: else just wasn't having it. You know, Michael Porter Junior 291 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 5: was having an injury with his shoulder. Jamal Murray's been 292 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 5: up and down, and he still had a poor shooting 293 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 5: night in Game four thirteen points, five to seventeen shooting. 294 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 5: But they're a resilient team, and so you know, I 295 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 5: think I don't think the Clippers discounted them. But what's 296 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 5: going to happen in Game five is that not only 297 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 5: is it given that Kawhi Leonard, James Harden and Viatz 298 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 5: Zubots have to play at their best, they also got 299 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 5: to make defensive stops, and as you saw in Game four, 300 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 5: they weren't able to do that, especially at the worst 301 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 5: opportune time as the buzzer sounded and no one accounted 302 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 5: for Aaron Gordon gained a rebound. 303 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 2: Mark I honestly felt like Saturday was a state game 304 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 2: for the Nuggets. They serve notice that they still have 305 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 2: championship medal. This was setting up for the Clippers to 306 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: go up three to one. Aaron Gordon's playing with un 307 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: arm no, Russell Westbrook has actually been, you know, pretty 308 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: good recently, and Nicole Joki served notice once again that hey, 309 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 2: I'm the best player in the world and I could 310 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 2: put this team on my back. And by the way, 311 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 2: before I forget this was that an airball? It was 312 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: a a Lorenzo Charles thorough Bailey airball. Jimmy Valvano, Aaron 313 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 2: Gordon miraculously caught anyway is sliced it. They won the game. 314 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 2: But that's how good this team is. I think the 315 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 2: Clippers are in big trouble now. Honestly, I know I 316 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 2: don't want to be prisoner of the moment, but I 317 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 2: just don't like what I saw today. 318 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 5: Well, what wasn't good is the Nuggets took home court 319 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 5: advantage back. Obviously, as you mentioned, the confidence is back there. 320 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 5: The other thing is they have now some time to 321 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 5: rest and recover. I mean, this was a very short 322 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 5: turnaround for both teams, playing a Thursday evening game and 323 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 5: then playing you know, Saturday afternoon. And even though they 324 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 5: didn't have to travel, that's still a tight itinerary here. 325 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 5: They go back to Denver, but they don't have to 326 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 5: play until Tuesday. The Clippers face a hostile environment. They 327 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 5: have to handle the altitude. But I think what we're 328 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 5: seeing here, it's a seven game series, and anything can happen. 329 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 5: It's a four or five matchup. There's not much separation 330 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 5: between the two games. So you know, strapper seepbelt on 331 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 5: and enjoy the ride and eat some popcorn while you're 332 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 5: at it, because it's going to be very entertaining. 333 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: It's going to be very entertaining. But as someone who's 334 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: covered a bazillion of these series, I look for things 335 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: that transfer, that transfer to the next game. I'm sure 336 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 2: you noticed today, Mark that Denver very aggressively double team 337 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 2: Kawhi and James Harden and they forced other players to 338 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 2: beat him, and they couldn't do it. The supporting cast 339 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 2: couldn't step up. I look for that same type of 340 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: aggressive double teaming defense in Denver. Can the Clippers make 341 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: the necessary adjustments and execute. 342 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 5: They definitely can. I think the thing about the playoffs 343 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 5: that's fascinating. It's very contradictory as you're right that there 344 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 5: can be carryover things. But because teams can make adjustments, 345 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 5: they can quickly change course here and so you know, 346 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 5: the Clippers do have depth. Someone like Norman Powell, he 347 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 5: hit shots, he showed up, but I think was the 348 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 5: tomb didn't have a good shooting night. Neither did Chris 349 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 5: Don and those are guys that usually step up in 350 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 5: the moment. And the other thing is, you know Kawhi 351 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 5: Leonard of Vicha Zoobots and James Harden. They still produced 352 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 5: at a high level. It wasn't as prolific as in 353 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 5: other games, but the Clippers have the recipe to bounce back. 354 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 5: They have the resiliency. Tylo has the coaching shops to make, 355 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 5: you know, adjustments, and they do have a formulable a bench. 356 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 5: I would also add Derek Jones Jor. He's no more 357 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 5: to the defensive guru, but he also compliments the team 358 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 5: with some additional scoring punch with easy baskets. So as 359 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 5: as much as the Nuggets are in control of the 360 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 5: series now I don't think they're right away with it 361 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 5: with the batam. This is very much a drag it 362 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 5: out a fair entertaining playoff series. I could go down 363 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 5: to wire in any game, and because of that, I 364 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,239 Speaker 5: think it's going to go seven games. And what's going 365 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 5: to happen really is anybody's guests fair enough? 366 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: I accept that. Let's move along to the Rockets Warriors, 367 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: because I got the Warriors also served notice shrewd decision 368 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 2: sitting Jimmy Butler. The first thing I want to ask 369 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 2: you is what is the status of Butler's recovery and 370 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 2: availability for Game four and Monday? For the simple reason, 371 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 2: the Warriors have a legitimate chance to seize a two 372 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 2: game lead. So do you dare risk putting Jimmy Butler 373 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: on the floor to try to make that happen? What's 374 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: the thought here? 375 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. If it was shrewd, it was 376 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 5: he wasn't healthy enough to play. I mean pretty simple 377 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 5: as that. If he had any ounce of being able 378 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 5: to play without risking for their injury, he would. If 379 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 5: it was just a pain tolerance issue, Jimmy Butler would, 380 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 5: but he wasn't. What his status is. It's day to day. 381 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 5: So you know, it helps that the Warriors won the game. 382 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 5: It helps that they have some time to recover for 383 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler to heal, but they have no idea. This 384 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 5: is one of these injuries that is very sensitive. I mean, 385 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 5: we saw in game two that hard fall that he took. 386 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 5: I mean that was very painful to watch. And that's 387 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 5: saying something because Jimmy Butler has a pretty high time 388 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 5: pain tolerance. So does that mean he can recover in 389 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 5: time to play Monday's Game four in the Bay Area. 390 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 5: I would guess yes, but it's very up in the air. 391 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 5: But what they did is they relied on a heavy 392 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 5: dose of Steph Curry and basically played him as much 393 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 5: as they could. Forty one minutes, he produced at a 394 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,239 Speaker 5: high level thirty six points, had nine to sixths. And 395 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 5: I think that the thing that I'm not surprised about. 396 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 5: After talking to his personal trainer of brain and pain 397 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 5: earlier this week after Game two, he had a sense 398 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 5: of texting with Steph Curry that he was going to 399 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 5: make the adjustments to adapt the physicality, get him better looks, 400 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 5: improve with taking care of the ball as well as, 401 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 5: you know, making sure his teammates could rise at the 402 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 5: moment because outside of Draymond Green, a lot of his 403 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 5: teammates haven't really been prepared to play in the playoffs. 404 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 5: But you know, someone like Buddy Heell provide a lot 405 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 5: of secondary scoring Gary Payton the second he's part of 406 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 5: that championship team in twenty twenty two, he provides some 407 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 5: additional scoring punch. But it really came down to let's 408 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 5: just ride steph Curry, play him a lot of minutes 409 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 5: and hope that is enough. And so far in one 410 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 5: game it was well. 411 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 2: Until the fourth quarter. My observation was slightly different. Houston 412 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 2: focused so much defensive attention on Curry that when the 413 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: fourth quarter rolled around, the afore mentioned Gary Payton, who 414 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 2: you just ended up with sixteen points, he got loose 415 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 2: a few times. Buddy Heel had one of his best 416 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 2: games seventeen points, five threes, Quinton Post, twelve rebounds, Johnson Kaminga. 417 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 2: They all stepped up and did what they needed to do. 418 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: They did what the Clipper supporting cast couldn't do. And 419 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 2: Draymond Green, who has become still old reliable, anchored that 420 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 2: defense and clapped down. I mean, the Rockets were held 421 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 2: to twenty two points in the fourth quarter. So I 422 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 2: feel like Golden State really stole that game today, even 423 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 2: though the marginal victory was better, and they stole it 424 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 2: with role players. Just my observation. 425 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it starts with Steph Curry, but it's 426 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 5: a trickle down effect that because of the fact that 427 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 5: rightfully so, he was gained a lot of the defensive 428 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 5: emphasis the Warriors had to play and b I think 429 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 5: the Rockets made the calculation that, you know, what are 430 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 5: the percentages, what are the odds of putting one defender 431 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 5: on Steph Curry and how much held defeat them versus 432 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 5: darn some of his team it's to make open shots. Now. 433 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 5: You know, they rose to the moment, but I think 434 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 5: they calculated that if they didn't put enough defensive pressure 435 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 5: on Steph, maybe he goes off for fifty plus. But 436 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 5: you know, the Warriors, to their credit, they rose to 437 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 5: that moment. And it also illustrated something that if Jimmy 438 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 5: Butler is back now they're even more dangerous because Steph 439 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 5: Curry was having this kind of you know, benefit of 440 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 5: not always having to carry the workload. The fact that 441 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 5: Jimmy's getting free throws the faculty's game to the rim. 442 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 5: It's additional scoring punch. It's also freeing help, freeing him 443 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 5: up for more open looks. But with or without Jimmy, 444 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 5: maybe that can still be a benefit that Steph can 445 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 5: enjoy because his other teammates arise at the moment. As 446 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 5: we saw in this regular season, that wasn't always sustainable, 447 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 5: hence why the Warriors got Jimmy Butler. But in the playoffs, 448 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 5: you know, sometimes it's rhnalin rush and those battle tests 449 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 5: and moments bring out the best and players, and we 450 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 5: saw that in Game three for the Warriors, tied. 451 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 2: With Mark Medina Medina Magic. Every Saturday night here on 452 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show, All Things NBA, Marcus Are, Fox 453 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, NBA Guru. All right, let's jump to the 454 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 2: tea Wolves and Lakers. This is just absolute much must 455 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 2: watch TV for me on Sunday, and I want to 456 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: give you two areas of concern for the Lakers while 457 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 2: making no prediction about Sunday's game. We talked about this 458 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 2: when we signed off last Saturday. There's some carryover things 459 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 2: I'm concerned about if you're a Lakers fan. The Wolves 460 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 2: dominated points in the paint Friday Night, fifty six to 461 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 2: twenty six. They only had eleven turnovers to the Lakers nineteen. 462 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: They doubled on fast break points. And oh, by the way, 463 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 2: what's the latest on Luca and the stomach flu because 464 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: clearly it was bothering him. 465 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, a few things unpacked. What you asked about 466 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 5: Luca doctors. He's going to play now, does that mean 467 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,920 Speaker 5: he's going to be effective? We don't know. He wasn't 468 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 5: effective in games. He gut it out and try to compete, 469 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 5: but he didn't shoot the ball well. Seventeen point six 470 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 5: or sixteen shooting. Yeah, he had eight seven rebounds. They 471 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 5: also had five turnovers. He was feeling so ill that 472 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 5: he couldn't even start the second half, and so you 473 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 5: would think having an extra day to recover, you know, 474 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 5: do whatever you needed to do to get this bug 475 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 5: out of your system. He'll do. But that's not a guarantee. 476 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 5: The other part I think is even more troubling because 477 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 5: that's been beyond one game. The defensive issues. They haven't 478 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 5: been able to defend on the perimeter, they haven't been 479 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 5: able to defend in the paint, they haven't been able 480 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 5: to take care of the ball route and that has 481 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 5: resulted in the world's getting easy baskets, and you and 482 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 5: I have discussed the Lakers here. I have multiple times 483 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 5: about their defense. I always thought that their defense wasn't 484 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 5: sustainable because they're getting by on effort more than talent 485 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 5: post Andy Davis. But I think the disappointing thing with 486 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 5: the Lakers so far in the playoffs is, I want 487 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 5: to be clear, they are. It's not like they're not 488 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 5: giving effort, but I don't see the same kind of 489 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 5: focused intensity that they had in the regular season when 490 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 5: it comes to defense. And usually it's an other way around, 491 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 5: where in the playoffs you start dialing up as far 492 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 5: as attention to detail, and I just haven't seen that defensively, 493 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 5: and that's really what's going to make or break whether 494 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 5: they can get in the first round, because we've seen 495 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 5: Lebron James, even at forty years old, he's going to 496 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 5: have good nights, but that's not enough if they don't 497 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 5: defend well. 498 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 2: Mark. There's another aspect of this series I want to 499 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 2: put on the table that I don't think is being 500 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: talked about. The first two games, both teams had three 501 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 2: days rest, and then they had three days rest between 502 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 2: Games two and three, but all of a sudden you 503 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 2: got Friday night, and Game four is a quick turnaround, 504 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 2: you get a two thirty local tip time on Sunday. 505 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: Here's the question, how much gas in the tank did 506 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves, Luka Doncic and Lebron James burn up on 507 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 2: Friday night? And how much do they have left? They 508 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: all played more than forty minutes. And to your point 509 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 2: about Luca, it wasn't just his offensive numbers. You could 510 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 2: see he was really sick. I watched you moving without 511 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 2: the ball. He looked like he was running in quicksand so, yeah, 512 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 2: a lot's unpacked there. But your thoughts, and I'm going 513 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: to ask for a prediction on who you think prevails Sunday. 514 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, as far as you know the quick turnaround, I mean, 515 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 5: Aunston Reeves is a young player, so you know whether 516 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 5: he performs well or he struggles. I don't think it's 517 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 5: going to have to do with the fact that he's 518 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 5: fatigued or not. It's just that he's got to be 519 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 5: more consistent. It's an execution thing. I think the short 520 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 5: turnaround is more of a concern with Lebron James and 521 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 5: Luka doncicch for Luca because of what I was mentioning, 522 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 5: he still hasn't fully recovered from his stomach bug. You know, 523 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 5: as we could probably all attest. Sometimes all it takes 524 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 5: is a day for everything to get out of your system. 525 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 5: But it's also not guaranteed. With Lebron James, you know, 526 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 5: it's always day to day. I mean, he is very 527 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 5: capable of having the kind of knights that he had 528 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 5: in Game three, where he's getting thirty eight points, ten rebounds. 529 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 5: Forces define father time, but father time also has a 530 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 5: way of knocking on the door at the most inopportune moments. 531 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 5: And so I think it's also very telling that ever 532 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 5: since the playoffs started, when reporters have asked him how 533 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 5: is he feeling, you know, with his health and overcoming 534 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 5: the left growing injury late in the season, all he 535 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 5: says is I'm available. You know what that means, Bernie, 536 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 5: He's at fully one hundred percent. He's just getting by 537 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 5: because that's what he does. So yeah, it's very much concerning. 538 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 5: And so what my prediction is is I think the 539 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 5: Worlds are in control of the series, and I think 540 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 5: that they will win Sunday. I thought that I thought 541 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 5: that whoever won Game three would wind up winning the series, 542 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 5: and here we are, so anything can happen here. I 543 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 5: could be proven wrong, but so far the Wolves are 544 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 5: showing a lot more positive trends than the Lakers are. 545 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 2: Maybe Lebron's being fitted for a cast. Remember that series 546 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 2: a few years ago when they lost, and all of 547 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 2: a sudden, he's at a press conference with a cast. 548 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I have to take my gratuitous shot at 549 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 2: Lebron every time we talk. 550 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 5: No, I expect your Saturday. 551 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 2: I don't forget to try to semi boneless spaghetti. I'm 552 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 2: near all week. Look, you've had your finger on the 553 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 2: pulse of this team all year, and the one thing 554 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 2: you said is it's fluid. So what it surprised me 555 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 2: if the Lakers came out on Sunday and flex the 556 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 2: muscle in one by eight. No, it wouldn't. There's just 557 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 2: some troubling signs, so Sunday would be a referendum. And 558 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have one last question on the Lakers that 559 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 2: might bring down the house. But first I want to 560 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 2: switch gears, uh and put a Kappa on Nico in Dallas? 561 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: Why did he have this press conference and say, gee, 562 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 2: I didn't really realize how much I love Luca. Look 563 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 2: all he's got to say is one thing I was 564 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 2: talking about, Buddy Jay ship about this. Just tell the truth. 565 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 2: I did not want to pay this guy three undred 566 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars. That's my right. This is my team, 567 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 2: this is how we roll. I've been with him three 568 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 2: or four years, all due respect, God bless him. I 569 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 2: don't want to pay him three hundred and fifty million. 570 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 2: End the story. But he keeps on dragging this out 571 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: and dredging it up, and I don't know what fruitful 572 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 2: purpose it serves. Am I reading that wrong? 573 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 5: You're reading some things right. I think you're reading something's wrong. 574 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 5: As far as like why he had this press conference, Yeah, 575 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 5: teams typically always the front office always has ended the 576 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 5: season media availability, so that's nothing different. I think the 577 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 5: more puzzling part is the previous press conference he had 578 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 5: before the season even ended, on the eve of their 579 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 5: playing tournament, where they had all these weird parameters of 580 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 5: no cameras allowed and initially no recording devices allowed. At 581 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 5: least later on the recording devices were allowed. You know, 582 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 5: the thing that was really foot in the mouth is 583 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,479 Speaker 5: what you were saying that, you know, Nico admitting Oh, 584 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 5: he had no idea that you know there would be 585 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 5: such a negative backlash among fans. I mean, how can 586 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 5: you not realize that a homegrown NBA superstar is going 587 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 5: to be beloved. That's number one. Number two though, the 588 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 5: idea of just saying it's just fessing up and now 589 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 5: we don't want to pay him, I think that that 590 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 5: can also wreak bad optics that you know, this team 591 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 5: is cheap and they don't want to spend blah blah blah. 592 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 5: All they need to do is think and concede that 593 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 5: Luka Doncis is a great player and there are a 594 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 5: lot of tough decisions to be made, but they felt 595 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 5: that short and long term this was the best decision 596 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 5: moving forward and leave it at the end of that. 597 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 5: They don't need to get into the negative parts of 598 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 5: his conditioning on or off the record, or even defend 599 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 5: the trade now because the injuries are the injuries that 600 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 5: he should just say, we may what we felt was 601 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 5: the best decision at the time, and obviously it's been 602 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 5: tough now, but we feel that long term it's going 603 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 5: to play out to our advantage and that's all he 604 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 5: needs to do. He shouldn't get into we don't want 605 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 5: to pay him because that just looks bad to the 606 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 5: paying customers about Hey, this organization doesn't want to spend money. 607 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: And I've certainly in my years in Detroit and need 608 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 2: heared you covering U and OV covered many of those 609 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 2: end of the season press conferences. I just think, how 610 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 2: about looking forward instead of backward and stop regurgitating this Mark. 611 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to save my Lakers question for next week. 612 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 2: It's pretty powerful. Let's see if they win this series 613 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 2: or not, and it'll have more context. But already looking 614 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 2: forward to next week. 615 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 5: Mark, all right, Bud, looking forward to it.

We can touch on 646 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 2: it and why the slide so on and so forth. 647 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 2: But if you saw mel Kiper globalistic, it's not the 648 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 2: first time I has done this. He believes in his observations, 649 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 2: in his research, and he stands by them. And so 650 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 2: now this is the question I'm putting out to the callers, 651 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 2: because Chador has a real opportunity to redeem himself, as 652 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 2: it were.

Absolute crime. And someday 658 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 2: I'll tell the story on the air. But what a joke. 659 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 2: The truth of the matter is all those players were 660 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 2: passed over or delayed their their selections were delayed, and 661 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 2: mel Kiper said, they all went on and proved him wrong. 662 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 2: Fall Farv won a Super Bowl, Rogers won a Super Bowl. 663 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 2: Brady I think he won a Super Bowl. They didn't 664 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 2: have to check. Dan Marino got through Super Bowl. But 665 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 2: you know, redefined passing in the NFL in the eighties, 666 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 2: and of course Roar and Rune legend. Okay, and they're 667 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: not the only ones that were overlooked as it were, 668 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 2: or passed over or slid in the draft. So do 669 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 2: you expect shoudor Sanders to take this torch and carry 670 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: it and join the likes Afar, Rogers, Brady Marino, et cetera, 671 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 2: Warren Moon and prove whatever dowters he had wrong, get 672 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 2: Cleveland to the playoffs, whatever the case may be. He 673 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: doesn't have to win a super Bowl to redeem himself. 674 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 2: Let's just see what kind of career he has. But 675 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is the way this happened today, 676 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 2: slid all the way to one forty four, by the way, 677 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 2: in the odd in the odd coincidence, Sam Howell was 678 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,879 Speaker 2: also drafted one forty four. Who just acquired him well, 679 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 2: a team that needed a quarterback Minnesota. I'll be damn 680 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 2: can't make this stuff up. So I want to hear 681 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 2: from you on Shudor. Okay, will he? Will he come 682 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 2: back and have the last laugh? As mel Kuiper said, 683 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 2: We've got people tweeting people are gonna regret not taking Shador. 684 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 2: Let's see if they're right. I want to hear from 685 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 2: the callers eight seven, seven, nine to nine on Fox 686 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 2: eight seven, seven, nine, nine, sixty six, three sixty nine. 687 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 2: What kind of career do you predict for Shador Sanders. 688 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 2: Is he gonna be another Brett Favre or is he 689 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 2: gonna be Giovanni Carmazzi? Google it. The second thing is 690 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 2: it was Dion really the reason teams avoided him. I'm 691 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 2: not buying that these are NFL franchise I'm not worried 692 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,479 Speaker 2: about Dion now. One of their issues is the only 693 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 2: coach Shoodor's ever played for is Dion. He didn't have 694 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 2: to beat anybody out in high school, he didn't have 695 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,959 Speaker 2: to beat anybody out at Jackson State, and he didn't 696 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: have to beat anybody out of car Colorado. Be a 697 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 2: little different in the NFL. Now, he did have one 698 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 2: scholarship offer to Florida Atlantic, intended not to go elected, 699 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:12,399 Speaker 2: not to go Okay, so look, you know where I'm 700 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 2: going with this. Will as mel Kuiper said, should or 701 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 2: prove his doubters wrong. You know where I'm going with that. Also, 702 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 2: as part of the reason for this slide was it Dion. 703 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: I'm not really buying that it might have been a 704 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 2: factor for some teams that I'm having a hard time 705 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 2: and part B why not his partner in Colorado, Travis Hunter. 706 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 2: Will they allow him to go both ways? In Jacksonville? 707 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 2: Should they allow him to go both ways? I say yes? 708 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: How does it manifest itself as a practical matter. You're 709 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: not going to play one hundred and sixty snaps, that's stupid. 710 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 2: They're gonna be logistical issues because every week in the 711 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 2: NFL you install a new defensive game plan and his 712 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 2: scheme with different personnel groupings. He's gonna have you. He 713 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 2: can't climb two mounds at the same time. But I 714 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 2: would playhim full time on defense, and then I would 715 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 2: create and packages for him on offense. You know, maybe 716 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 2: get on the field sixteen to twenty snaps on offense. 717 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: That the way you're getting the best of both worlds. Hey, 718 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 2: late in the game, you got to move the change. 719 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 2: You're in the red zone. I'll tell you what you're 720 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: on offense, chardor check that Travis would be nice to 721 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 2: have in the field, wouldn't instead of standing on the sidelines. Meanwhile, 722 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 2: maybe you're trying to hold a three point lead late 723 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 2: in the game and third and seven I think you 724 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 2: want Travis locking down one of their best receivers. So 725 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 2: it's gonna be the shaudor Travis show tonight. Will Shudorf Sanders, 726 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 2: as mel Kiper said, redeem himself and have all these 727 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 2: teams regret not taking What kind of careers are you 728 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 2: gonna have? Also? Was Dion really part of the reason 729 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 2: or the reason? Chador fell? I want to get your 730 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 2: thoughts and will Travis get to go both ways in 731 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 2: the NFL? I say they should let them how they 732 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 2: do it, that's a different story. Eight seven seven ninety 733 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 2: nine on Fox eight seven seven nine to nine six 734 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 2: six three six y nine.

Jim, 758 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 2: you've got the floor. You know where to take it. 759 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 5: Bernie my man. Hey, the thing with Shaka. 760 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 6: You know, hey, he got drafted where he got drafted. 761 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 6: I think a lot of people, you know, up front offices, 762 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 6: it's not about Dion because a lot of them weren't 763 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 6: around when. 764 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 5: Dion was around. 765 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 6: So I don't think it has so much to do 766 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 6: with his dad I think they got the drift on Shaka, 767 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 6: that he's a little bit of a head case, you know, 768 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 6: a little bit of privilege and in that and they 769 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 6: just didn't want to invest the money in the early 770 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 6: rounds to pay him and see if he becomes a 771 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 6: star in the later rounds. Now, you look, it doesn't 772 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 6: matter when you got drafted. 773 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:49,720 Speaker 5: You got drafted. 774 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 2: Well, that's the reason I sayed, right. 775 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 6: The reason I say that is like, look at Mike Piazza. 776 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 6: He got drafted two hundred and sixty seventh so baseball 777 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 6: and he's in the Hall. You know, it's all about 778 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 6: what you make. You get the opportunity, Let's see what 779 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:04,439 Speaker 6: you make. 780 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 7: Make it up. 781 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 2: So what do you think Dion will Or with Holmia 782 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 2: there's a Freudian slip. What do you think shud Or 783 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 2: will do with his opportunity, As mal Kiper said, will 784 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,359 Speaker 2: he prove teams wrong? Will he make teams regret not 785 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 2: taking him? Will he get Cleveland to the Promised Land? 786 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 6: I think I think he'll be a decent quarterback. I 787 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 6: think he'll he'll show teams that they missed on him. 788 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 6: But Bertie football is the is the worst of all sports. 789 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 6: I mean, your career could be over in practice in 790 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 6: one play. So it's you know, all those guys they 791 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 6: just roll the dice. But I just think that he's 792 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 6: just a little bit too much of a head case. 793 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 6: He grew up in privilege. I mean, there's nothing wrong 794 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 6: with that, but I just I think that's what turned 795 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 6: most of the franchise in the way. But like you said, 796 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 6: there's only ten teams out of thirty two looking for 797 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 6: a quarterback. So you know, we'll say, you know, it'll 798 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,399 Speaker 6: be it'll be a good story, you know. 799 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: A great story. By the way, real quickly. Will Jacksonville 800 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 2: let Travis play both ways? 801 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 6: Yes, I think you had the best analogy on that. 802 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 6: I think defense wins games. I think that's where they're 803 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 6: gonna play him, and when any of those receivers need 804 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 6: a spot breath, you know, they're gonna pop him in 805 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 6: there and he's gonna make some place. You know. I 806 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,720 Speaker 6: think that that was the that was the best steel 807 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,319 Speaker 6: in the draft, moving up and doing that. I don't 808 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,879 Speaker 6: know what Cleveland has in the front front office. I mean, 809 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 6: those got Jacksonville got in the front office. But I 810 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 6: think that was a diamond in the rough they got there. 811 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know all right, Bell, all right, Jim, appreciate 812 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 2: you as always. Stephen, Kansas City. Welcome back in, Buddy, 813 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 2: Welcome into the Bernie Frader Show. 814 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 8: Hey, Bernie, good to talk to you to night. 815 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 9: You know. 816 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 8: I mean on this subject, there's probably gonna be movies 817 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,320 Speaker 8: and TV shows and magazine. 818 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 5: Articulture written about this. 819 00:43:56,320 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 8: Here's what I what I think happened is that I 820 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 8: think that the old man has nothing to do with Dion. 821 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 8: I don't think Dion even cares. I mean, I honestly, 822 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 8: he always had a wink in his eye with the 823 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 8: swag and everything, and people people loved him for it. 824 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 8: You can tell by those commercials with Nick Saban he's 825 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 8: still he's still popular. That what happened was is I 826 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 8: think the kid thought that he could go to Pittsburgh 827 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:28,239 Speaker 8: or Cleveland or somewhere better if he kind of, you know, 828 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 8: went to that interview and then showed him up a 829 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 8: little bit, and and we find out what happens when 830 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 8: you don't present yourself, you know, truthfully, or will blow 831 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,280 Speaker 8: him off or whatever. The kid learned a valuable lesson, 832 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,799 Speaker 8: and I think he's I think he's taking it. He's 833 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 8: taking it well. Now he may not ever be a great, 834 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 8: a truly great, great player. But this may be more 835 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 8: valuable than than any sort of millions. You know that 836 00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 8: that sort of like stay stay humble etho, that anybody 837 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 8: can be knocked down, anybody doesn't matter who you are, 838 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 8: who your daddy is. Anybody can be can be knocked 839 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 8: down and knocked down a few pegs. And I think 840 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 8: that's exactly what happened today. 841 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 2: Or all right, So the bottom line is real quickly, 842 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 2: do you think he goes on as mel Kiper said, 843 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,879 Speaker 2: does your door go on to you know, make many 844 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 2: teams regret not taking him. 845 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 8: I think he's a he's a he could be a 846 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 8: good quarterback. He could be an average quarterback. I just 847 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 8: don't want him. I just I think this is great. 848 00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,439 Speaker 8: I mean, I think this is all these all these 849 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 8: pundits are acting like this is this is terrible. I 850 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 8: wish they would have done this to Eli Manning when 851 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 8: he pulled the pulled that big move with his dad. 852 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 8: I wish they would have done the same thing. You 853 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 8: gotta you gotta knock these kids down a few pigs 854 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 8: when they get in the league, and the NBA makes 855 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 8: them carry luggage. So so I mean I'm all for 856 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 8: I'm all for this, and and let me tell you 857 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 8: about Travis Hunter. I mean, the rumor was in Colorado 858 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 8: spring game. This guy is going to change football forever. 859 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 8: So so just just keep it. Keep an eye on 860 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 8: this guy. He is he is, he is fantastic. I mean, 861 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 8: I think it's it's going to be something completely unexpected 862 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,919 Speaker 8: for most people to see a real a real two 863 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 8: way player. It's kind of ironic that his coach was 864 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 8: was Prime Time. But yeah, I've got nothing against the kid. 865 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 8: I think Shador is a nice is going to be 866 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 8: a perfectly nice young man. But sometimes it's just good 867 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 8: to slap these kids down a few notches. You know. 868 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 8: It makes them keep the humble, keeps some, keep some 869 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 8: better personal. I mean, swag does not get you in 870 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 8: the Hall of Fame. You know, that's just that's just 871 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 8: how most old guys will see it. You know, that's 872 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 8: why this is such an interesting topic, because you know, 873 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,839 Speaker 8: it's sort of new generation versus old generation. I think 874 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 8: the old the old generation one today. 875 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,280 Speaker 2: All right, thanks for checking in, buddy, I always appreciate 876 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 2: your perspectives. I don't believe that the NFL had intended 877 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,319 Speaker 2: to slap him down or teach him a lesson. They 878 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 2: got bigger fish to fry than that. I think that 879 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 2: ended up being somewhat the byproduct, and this could be 880 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: a blessing in disguise. Look when you go to a team. 881 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 2: I've said this about Dan Moreno. He benefited tremendously from 882 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 2: being taken six in nineteen eighty three because he went 883 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,440 Speaker 2: to a team, the Miami Dolphins, who'd been in the 884 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 2: Super Bowl the year before, so she was surrounded by 885 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,000 Speaker 2: a great roster. He went to play for John don Shula, 886 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 2: a true quarterback whisperer, and because he fell so far, 887 00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 2: the expectations were much lower and he set the world 888 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,080 Speaker 2: on fire. So let's see if Shaduur has a similar career. 889 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,720 Speaker 2: Tony and Los Angeles. Welcome in, Tony. How you doing, Buddy? 890 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 10: Hey Bernie. If the Pac twelve had stayed intact, Shadur 891 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 10: would have been exposed against Oregon, Washington and Utah and 892 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 10: maybe someone else. And if he had gone to the 893 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 10: Big Ten with the big the teams that went to 894 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 10: the Big Ten, he would have been really exposed. So 895 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 10: who were the best teams that he played against last year? 896 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 10: And how well did he do against him. 897 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 2: No, you're no argument, no argument. Oregon spanked him. I 898 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 2: mean North Dakota State could have beat him by you 899 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 2: pushed him around the field, Kansas State. I've had some 900 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 2: of those same thoughts, Tony, So is that is that 901 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 2: your way of saying, I want to steal your thunder? 902 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 1: Keep? 903 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 10: How many of how many of those teams have NFL 904 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 10: level defensive players that are gonna go like, hardly any 905 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:29,280 Speaker 10: compared to Oregon, Washington, Utah and Big ten defensive. 906 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 2: Players, Tony, if if, if you've listened to my show, 907 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:36,879 Speaker 2: particularly the past six weeks, I've said this objectively, not subjectively, 908 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,720 Speaker 2: because I don't care about shoot or Sanders. If succeed, 909 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,359 Speaker 2: If he succeeds, wonderful, that's good for our business. If 910 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 2: he fails, he joins the other trash heap of a 911 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 2: thousand stories from the Naked City. I have said for 912 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 2: weeks I wouldn't grade him as a first round pick 913 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 2: for multiple reasons. Tony, you got the floor? Is he 914 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 2: gonna prove everybody wrong or not? 915 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,399 Speaker 10: I think the fix was in the Cleveland owners told 916 00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,399 Speaker 10: everybody off Sanders. We want him, and we're gonna wait 917 00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 10: a long time. So we don't have to pay him 918 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 10: luck because he makes a lot of niol. 919 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:07,839 Speaker 2: More are too smart for that man. There is no 920 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,879 Speaker 2: there's no collusion in the NFL. These guys can't even 921 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 2: agree to go for a lunch. Okay, I don't mean 922 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 2: to shoot shoot you down there, big fel. I love 923 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 2: their calls, all right, Travis Hunter? Is he gonna play 924 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 2: both ways? 925 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 10: I would I would say yes. 926 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 2: I would say, hey, Tony, listen, I really appreciate you 927 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 2: checking in and good on you. You brought up a 928 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 2: lot of good context and perspective. You gave it some 929 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 2: texture because who you play against in college. I defended 930 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson to the hill several years ago when he 931 00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 2: came out of Louisville. Go back and look at the 932 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 2: box scores when he played you SEC defenses like yeah, 933 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 2: let's you, et cetera. He did great. I defended the 934 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 2: hell out of Lamar Jackson when other people were on him. Christopher, 935 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 2: North Carolina Joint. Just welcome in, Christopher. 936 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 11: Good evening, Bernie. I wanted to start with one topic 937 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 11: first and then tackle the second. 938 00:49:59,400 --> 00:49:59,720 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 939 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 11: Chris shout out to the USA women winning the gold 940 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 11: against Canada six four in over time four to three. 941 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 11: Go women, Thank you very much. 942 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,919 Speaker 2: So forgot to tell them. Come on, man, you can't 943 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 2: purry the lead there, big fella. If you're gonna break news, 944 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 2: what tell them which sport it was? 945 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:16,959 Speaker 7: Hey? 946 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 11: This was in the hockey tournament for USA women in 947 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 11: the IATTL as it deals with women hockey as they 948 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 11: get ready for the Olympics. 949 00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 2: Go all right, let's get let's get the Chador and Travis, 950 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on those two? 951 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 11: This one Shaudor last week, Like I said, this proved 952 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 11: one thing Schauduur was fake. Why because he wasn't able 953 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 11: to prove what he could do in college. This is 954 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 11: where they think that this is going to be the 955 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 11: next Tom Brady. It's not. And there's one good reason 956 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 11: why Where did he go? He went to Cleveland. Cleveland 957 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 11: is not a quarterback whisperer. There is no quarterback whispering Cleveland. 958 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 11: Where is he having the best opportunity it would have 959 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 11: been with a quarterback whispering team. He's not going to 960 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 11: do anything in Cleveland going to be a Scott Mitchell. 961 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 11: He's going to stumble and bumble around the league, and 962 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 11: he's not going to be anything other than mediocre. Think 963 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 11: about it. He really doesn't have the skills. He pretended 964 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 11: to be something he's not. He advertised something he won't be. 965 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 11: And until he can prove three things, read defenses, read whiteboards, 966 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 11: and understand the complexity of the NFL, he is going 967 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,400 Speaker 11: to be a third string quarterback. 968 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 2: Interesting. I appreciate a strong opinion, Christopher. That's what we 969 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 2: want here. We don't always have to agree. Listen, you 970 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 2: may well be right. And as many of the folks 971 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 2: I talk to in the past few months, for what 972 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 2: it's worth, facts not feelings, she do or didn't do 973 00:51:54,440 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 2: well on the whiteboard part of the interview again, he's 974 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,240 Speaker 2: now stepping into a new situation. What's passed has passed 975 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 2: as we go forward. I don't want to hear legendary. 976 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 2: Don't tell me, show me, show me. Robert and Arcadia. 977 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:12,839 Speaker 2: Welcome to the Bernie Frattleshiew. How are you. 978 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 12: Hey, I'm doing well. 979 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 13: I just want to speak towards Shador. 980 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:19,240 Speaker 9: Now. 981 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 13: The last time I seen a quarterback kind of like this. 982 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 13: His name and you mentioned him before is Lamar Jackson 983 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:29,759 Speaker 13: went to a program like this that's not knowingly to 984 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 13: be one of the top tier ones and brought him 985 00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,439 Speaker 13: to something. Now, he's not one of the top tier, 986 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 13: don't get me wrong, but to put him in the 987 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 13: fifth round, now that's just really breaking him down when 988 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 13: you think about what he has looked up to and 989 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 13: even sought, you know, grades like Tom Brady and such 990 00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:51,399 Speaker 13: to really learn, and what he just trusts his dad 991 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 13: and what he has done right, So that preaches a 992 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 13: lot of coachability. 993 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 12: Now. 994 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:57,400 Speaker 13: I see all the other stuff about him having a 995 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 13: big head, but I would love a competent quarterback in 996 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 13: my opinion. So with that being said, and the tools 997 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,719 Speaker 13: that he has around him and such, and him being 998 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,760 Speaker 13: able to scramble and still make plays with big players 999 00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:12,279 Speaker 13: and such too, why can't that translate? So I don't 1000 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 13: really see where all this extra hype is and this 1001 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 13: generational type of feel too. But overall, I think that 1002 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 13: this is a good pick for Cleveland and this type 1003 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,240 Speaker 13: you're playing with house money at this point. 1004 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 7: But I don't know. 1005 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 13: If he's going to be a great or amazing or 1006 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 13: something along those lines. But a lot of people in 1007 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 13: the top ten picks at the QB don't pan out 1008 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 13: in that type of way. But somebody that's able to 1009 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 13: show you this scrambling ability, still able to make big plays, 1010 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 13: and has this type of likability he's gonna sell tickets, like, 1011 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 13: come on, you're just letting this pass by. I feel 1012 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,520 Speaker 13: like it's slept through a lot of team pools fingertips 1013 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 13: when you talk about Travis Hunter. To answer that question, 1014 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 13: I believe that he'll be a two way player, and 1015 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 13: it just kind of depends on his durability. If it 1016 00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,920 Speaker 13: lasts long, then he'll stay a two way player. But 1017 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 13: if it continues to just hit on him and he's out, 1018 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 13: they're going to continue to just have him as a 1019 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 13: wide receiver. Feel like it's a bigger impact on the game, 1020 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 13: especially nowadays, and plus he'll get all that money as well. 1021 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 2: All right, good stuff, Robert, appreciate your thoughts to don't 1022 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:15,720 Speaker 2: be a stranger on the Bernie Fatis are just getting 1023 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,839 Speaker 2: started in the midnight hour, Harold, Rick, Jerome and Hugh 1024 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 2: you are up next in that order.

Hello, Hello, Harold, 1051 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:42,799 Speaker 2: you're on the air. 1052 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 14: He man, what's happening Listen? 1053 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 12: I want to just offer alternative perspective on a whole 1054 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:52,879 Speaker 12: shdul Santa situation. You know, I know this young man 1055 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 12: who was raised Bob good Man in prime, but with 1056 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 12: the media and a lot of the morning hosts and 1057 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 12: other people made this whole draft situation what it was. 1058 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 12: Maybe the kid got a little legal, little swag, a 1059 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 12: little flow, little attitude. Maybe he didn't he cutally performed 1060 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,120 Speaker 12: at a high level. But coming into this draft, all 1061 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 12: the media voltures took this kid and then there's a 1062 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:21,040 Speaker 12: big jig Cower babel for him and put him right 1063 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 12: on top of it. So when you're a young man, 1064 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,480 Speaker 12: it doesn't matter who your daddy is or how much 1065 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 12: you getting paid nil. They definitely put him in a 1066 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 12: precarrious situation. And then for the NFL, after all, hypocritical 1067 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 12: and that is the worst group of people on the planet, 1068 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 12: given what they've hidden and the scammers that they do 1069 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 12: all the time, to all of a sudden masquerade as 1070 00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 12: though they are the paragons of virtue. We're gonna teach 1071 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,840 Speaker 12: his kid. You know what the straighter now is, it 1072 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 12: just doesn't it just doesn't ring right. And I just 1073 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 12: think he's a young man maybe kind of you know, 1074 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 12: they don't the spylight for him. They showing on him, 1075 00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 12: and then they were just waiting for him to make 1076 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,440 Speaker 12: a mistake and hopefully he'll go in the NFL and 1077 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:03,839 Speaker 12: take care of some business. 1078 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 2: Harold. I appreciate your perspective, thoughtful, and I would say 1079 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:13,359 Speaker 2: this that there's no question the media was culpable and 1080 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 2: the media was complicit in allowing this group think echo 1081 00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 2: chamber narrative to to erode what you know, Chador's reputation 1082 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 2: may or may not be, but it's what I call 1083 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 2: them Michael Jackson syndrome. Harold. The media can prop you 1084 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 2: up and take you down. Going into the year, some 1085 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,040 Speaker 2: people had him as the number one player picked overall. 1086 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 2: So it's a bit of a double ed sword. But 1087 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 2: I think the larger issue here is what's going to 1088 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,080 Speaker 2: rise to the surface. And he was raised by a 1089 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 2: good man, I like Dean Sanders. I think he's everything 1090 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,880 Speaker 2: he's touched has been successful. Now we'll see what Shador 1091 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,120 Speaker 2: can do on his own. Now it's no longer show me, 1092 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 2: tell me you follow me. 1093 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 7: That's what I call the laffin. 1094 00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 12: But I would just say this, you know everybody then 1095 00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 12: what misses you? And you could be a sposed as 1096 00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 12: it is, you could be a cost co executive, whatever 1097 00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 12: it is. You know, everybody wants this kid to come 1098 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 12: in and interviewing like he's trying to get into law school, right, 1099 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 12: And the bottom line is if I'm a team and 1100 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 12: I have a young man come in and I know 1101 00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 12: the kid is not that interested in playing for me 1102 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 12: for whatever reason, right, I want to know as an 1103 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 12: employee comes to having an interview, maybe there's some information, right, 1104 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 12: Like most people aren't forced into job interviews. When you're 1105 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 12: going through the draft for better for worse. You got 1106 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 12: to talk to all these teams and maybe there's a 1107 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 12: team that you're not really down with. Maybe they're not 1108 00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 12: down with you, so to me, kind of like going 1109 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 12: out on the day. That's where the illogic of it 1110 00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 12: just comes into play. Instead of trying to throw this 1111 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 12: poor kid under the bus. Okay, maybe he didn't comport 1112 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 12: himself with the highest degree of whatever they consider professionalism 1113 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 12: to be. For a nineteen twenty one year old man, 1114 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 12: so be it. But you want to know the straight truth, 1115 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 12: and again call him. Made a good point by Eli. 1116 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,920 Speaker 12: Oh you look at Kobe's the greatest basketball player all 1117 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 12: the time. Like some people just don't want to go 1118 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,479 Speaker 12: to certain places. And if I'm the employer, I would 1119 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 12: rather know that sooner than later. 1120 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 2: Fair enough, all right, thanks, Harold, don't be a stranger. 1121 00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 2: Look again, it's all gonna come out in the wash 1122 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 2: when he gets on the field. And I will stick 1123 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 2: to this though. I do not think that missing the 1124 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: Shrine Bowl and the combine and saying just look at 1125 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,959 Speaker 2: my film, that's enough may have been the smartest play, 1126 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 2: but the rest of it is all subjective. And listen, 1127 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 2: he's got a lot of guys supporting him to shudor 1128 00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 2: does so. Now again, let's just get on the field 1129 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 2: and play ball. Rick and Louisiana Joint. Just Rick, welcome 1130 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 2: into the Bernie Fradershaw. How are you? 1131 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 15: I'm all right you thanks for taking a call. 1132 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 10: Yes, sir, again, I'm going. 1133 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 7: To do all three first. 1134 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 15: I do believe that is gonna do well. But it 1135 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 15: is a team sport, so he can't do it all 1136 00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 15: by himself. I mean, he's got to have an offensive line, 1137 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 15: he's got to have receivers, and he's got to have 1138 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 15: a running back that's gonna offset some of that. So 1139 01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 15: I think that that they have a love, that they 1140 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 15: have a Cleveland has a challenge too to make sure 1141 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 15: that you know, he's protected to a certain you know, 1142 01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 15: a certain degree. So I will say, if he gets 1143 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 15: the protection he need and have the receivers in the 1144 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 15: running game, I think he's gonna do well. 1145 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 8: Uh. 1146 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 15: Secondly, as far as you asked the question about Dion, 1147 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 15: I will say this much. I think that, you know, 1148 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 15: with lebron the way he did his son, Bronian was 1149 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 15: able to get him in. I do think there is 1150 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 15: some fear out there. That's what I took it as 1151 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,040 Speaker 15: a fear because I think there was some that said, 1152 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 15: you know, I really don't want to deal with that, 1153 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:51,480 Speaker 15: because I don't want to deal with Dion because it's 1154 01:00:51,480 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 15: his son, and you can't you can't blame them for 1155 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 15: him to speak up for his son. If things get 1156 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 15: you know, go disarray and they ask the question, well, 1157 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 15: why is he not playing? Well, You're not fully utilizing 1158 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 15: which kind of leads me to the third thing, and 1159 01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 15: that is do you think they're gonna use Travis Hunter 1160 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 15: if they're smart. 1161 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 7: They will. 1162 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:16,840 Speaker 15: When Dion played, Dion was primarily defensive back, but he 1163 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 15: also would line up on third down, well, wide receiver. 1164 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 2: You know what. And Rick in nineteen ninety six he 1165 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:27,320 Speaker 2: started sixteen games. 1166 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 15: On offense, right, and it was also punk return. 1167 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:34,560 Speaker 2: That's right, killer punk returner. 1168 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 15: So if they're smart, they should be utilize them. But 1169 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:41,880 Speaker 15: to play like he did in college and have him going, 1170 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 15: you know, defensive back and wide receiver the whole game, 1171 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 15: now that that's too much in my opinion and pro. 1172 01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 2: All right, thanks very appreciate your thoughts today, ladies and gentlemen. 1173 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,320 Speaker 2: Boys and girls, please turn your hymndals to page twenty, 1174 01:01:56,480 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 2: as we now welcome in the comedic stylings of Jerome 1175 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 2: and Charleston.

And the media was 1334 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 14: definitely the blame because they had him hyped up with 1335 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:35,560 Speaker 14: that big party. 1336 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 2: With all the you're not wrong, and that's the reason 1337 01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:42,160 Speaker 2: he slipped, because who in the hell besides his own 1338 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:44,320 Speaker 2: camp and a few people said he was going to 1339 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 2: be a top five pick. Nobody I talked to in 1340 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:48,880 Speaker 2: NFL circles go ahead, Well a. 1341 01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 14: Year ago they did, but then. 1342 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but not the NFL people. 1343 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,720 Speaker 14: No, so they hiped him up and back. He said, 1344 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 14: the media drives him down, and he dropped like a 1345 01:09:59,120 --> 01:09:59,599 Speaker 14: light balloon. 1346 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:04,679 Speaker 2: Basically, well, go ahead, He's not the first one. Listen, 1347 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:08,759 Speaker 2: I have a time crunch Mike real quickly.

All right, back on the Bernie Fraddle Show, 1373 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:40,680 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. The Midnight Hour continues. Umberto San Diego, 1374 01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:42,519 Speaker 2: Waena Snowches, how you doing? 1375 01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:49,080 Speaker 19: Umberto Berto come starts, Bernie, Will you be any two 1376 01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:52,560 Speaker 19: movie and listen listening to your show amazing as always 1377 01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 19: and have Regarding the point that you have with Travis Hunter, 1378 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 19: he's going to be jat Wars, so he has to 1379 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:03,639 Speaker 19: pick his spots. He wants to be great. I think 1380 01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:09,839 Speaker 19: you cannot play both ways all downs. So I remember 1381 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 19: Dion Sanders was great cornerback in a good receiver when 1382 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 19: he played offense. So it'll be interesting to see how 1383 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:22,400 Speaker 19: the Jaggers use him. So the kid can be at 1384 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 19: one hundred percent for every single play according to the 1385 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:31,479 Speaker 19: downs or whatever. But yeah, that's something that the NFL 1386 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 19: is different than college and he's going to find that 1387 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:36,120 Speaker 19: out in the first few games. 1388 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:41,439 Speaker 2: I think, no, I'm an agreement. Look, he's a special talent, 1389 01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,960 Speaker 2: and I think you know, on offense, you know, if 1390 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:46,719 Speaker 2: it's the fourth quarter, you need to get some points 1391 01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 2: on the board to move the change, you're in the 1392 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:50,679 Speaker 2: red zone. You might want him on the field on offense. 1393 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:52,840 Speaker 2: As far as defense, you probably I think you want 1394 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:55,000 Speaker 2: him their full time and then pick your spots for 1395 01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:58,080 Speaker 2: some offensive packages. All right, is shedor going to do 1396 01:12:58,120 --> 01:13:01,559 Speaker 2: what mal Kuiper says and make people regrets not taking them. 1397 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:07,719 Speaker 19: Well, the drawback on that is he's in the Browns, 1398 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:12,360 Speaker 19: one of the most dysfunctional organizations there are. They make bad, 1399 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 19: choicest people don't forget. They run Baker Mayfel to the ground. 1400 01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 15: They did not give him respect. I don't know. 1401 01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:27,280 Speaker 19: I don't trust the organization. I think the kid has 1402 01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 19: the tools, he can be really good, but unfortunately he's 1403 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:36,679 Speaker 19: in that organization, the same organization that paid Deshaun Watson 1404 01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:40,000 Speaker 19: a lot of money for nothing. So that's the only 1405 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 19: drawbot the kid. I think it'd be great, but I 1406 01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 19: think he's in the wrong. 1407 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:48,080 Speaker 2: Place all right, And Bertel appreciates you as always, I 1408 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 2: would humbly remind of the folks Baker Mayfield joined that organization. 1409 01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 2: They were one in thirty one, two years on Hugh 1410 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,639 Speaker 2: Jackson and got them to the playoffs the second year. 1411 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,439 Speaker 2: Now I realized they ran Baker out of and all 1412 01:14:00,479 --> 01:14:03,639 Speaker 2: that stuff. And you're not wrong about Cleveland's history. Bernie 1413 01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 2: Coosar had a run there, and Fernis Boner doesn't drop 1414 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 2: the ball in the goal line and go to the 1415 01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 2: super Bowl. But it's inarguable the Cleveland franchises. I don't 1416 01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:12,960 Speaker 2: know if it's cursed or what. So your points, we'll 1417 01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:15,839 Speaker 2: take it in. Bertel, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, 1418 01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 2: we welcome in a man who makes time for us, 1419 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:22,959 Speaker 2: and we are eternally grateful. Say hello to Manuel and Guardina, 1420 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:23,880 Speaker 2: Well what's up? 1421 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:32,719 Speaker 9: Buddy Burn Baby Burn faction came in the chain reactions. Bernie, 1422 01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,640 Speaker 9: great show as usual. I want to thank you personally 1423 01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:41,680 Speaker 9: for giving us a boy and for always covering all 1424 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:45,679 Speaker 9: the bases in such a professional fashion. Now let's get 1425 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 9: down to business. Chadure Sanders. Okay, so I'm not a 1426 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 9: Chadur hater, But last I checked, the guy didn't win 1427 01:14:55,880 --> 01:15:00,560 Speaker 9: his division. Guy didn't win a national championship. Everybody was 1428 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 9: up in arms there. He had his jersey retired. So 1429 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,240 Speaker 9: why is it such a big deal to everybody that 1430 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:09,879 Speaker 9: the guy fell in the draft. 1431 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:10,759 Speaker 7: It happens. 1432 01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 9: You know, I take the same stance with him as 1433 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:17,720 Speaker 9: I take with my Lakers. Don't talk about it. 1434 01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:18,719 Speaker 16: Do it. 1435 01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:23,920 Speaker 9: Show me on the fields, on the court how anybody 1436 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:29,240 Speaker 9: could sit there and blabber blabber, talk crap, But do it. 1437 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 9: Put your money where your mouth is. 1438 01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:33,799 Speaker 5: Okay. 1439 01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:39,360 Speaker 9: As far as Travis Hunter generational talent, and that's another thing, 1440 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 9: is he going to have somebody like that to throw with. 1441 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 9: We saw what happened to Johnny Manziel all of a 1442 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:48,519 Speaker 9: sudden when his receiver went to Tampa Bay and became 1443 01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 9: Hall of Famer. Johnny Manziel started calling himself, Billy and 1444 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 9: started going to your town, you know what I mean. 1445 01:15:56,360 --> 01:16:00,120 Speaker 9: So everything you know, we got. 1446 01:15:59,920 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 7: To see it. 1447 01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:03,840 Speaker 9: Man, I'm tired of all this. I think Travis Hunter 1448 01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 9: is going. 1449 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:04,639 Speaker 16: To be great. 1450 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,600 Speaker 9: But like Umberto was saying, man, this ain't college. 1451 01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 7: Man. 1452 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:11,680 Speaker 9: We've seen the best of the best, you know, be 1453 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 9: able to go both ways a little bit here and there, 1454 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 9: guys like Mike Grable, guys like Charles Woods, Deon Sanders, 1455 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 9: but they pick and choose their spots. Like m Berto 1456 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 9: was saying, is st anc two a my friend? 1457 01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 2: Great stuff as always? Man, Well, I want to give 1458 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:29,760 Speaker 2: you some props too, because let's be honest here, let's 1459 01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:32,640 Speaker 2: keep it real. When they got on the field against Nebraska, 1460 01:16:32,680 --> 01:16:37,360 Speaker 2: they got humbled. Same with Kansas State. Kansas BYU did 1461 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 2: not farewell against the bigger boys. And I'm gonna correct respectfully, 1462 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 2: Ryan Clark. After the Nebraska game, a reporter said something about, 1463 01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,160 Speaker 2: you know, Schudoor Sanders in his rough game, and he 1464 01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 2: looked at the reporter if if I've got this correct, 1465 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:57,040 Speaker 2: and said, how many times was Dylan Royola sacked? So 1466 01:16:57,520 --> 01:17:03,639 Speaker 2: he did have some instances where perhaps they have followed him. 1467 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 2: It's not the end of the world again. He's going 1468 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 2: to get on the field in July and we're going 1469 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,439 Speaker 2: to see where we go from there. All right, Bryce 1470 01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 2: from Texas, it looks like you got the last word tonight. 1471 01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:13,799 Speaker 2: One of your thoughts on these issues as. 1472 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 18: A Brown fan. I can go on way too long 1473 01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:17,679 Speaker 18: about this, but I'll try to make it as short 1474 01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 18: as possible. I'm not going to talk about Travis Hutter. First, 1475 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:24,000 Speaker 18: I opened for manwell last week. I appreciate him returning 1476 01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 18: the favor and opening for me tonight, Thank you. Second, 1477 01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:31,200 Speaker 18: I think that the Shador standers him getting drafted in 1478 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:32,960 Speaker 18: the fifth round is not as big of a deal 1479 01:17:33,080 --> 01:17:36,200 Speaker 18: as everybody's pointing out to be. Will Howard also fell 1480 01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:38,479 Speaker 18: to the fifth round here and won a national title. 1481 01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:41,880 Speaker 18: But I think Shador felt because of his dad, and 1482 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:45,120 Speaker 18: it's not because of his loud mouth or the attitude. 1483 01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:47,360 Speaker 18: I think it's because he's been shielded by his dad 1484 01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:50,640 Speaker 18: being his only coach all his life. We don't know 1485 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 18: what Shudor is going to do with a new coach. 1486 01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:55,600 Speaker 18: Can he learn a new system, can he learn a 1487 01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:58,760 Speaker 18: new scheme or whatever. I think that's the thing that 1488 01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 18: hurt him. Now, going to my lovely Browns. The Browns 1489 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 18: are like the girl who keeps getting into bad relationship 1490 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:10,280 Speaker 18: after bad relationships, starting way way, way way back. You 1491 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 18: can go through Johnny Manziel, you can go through Josh Gordon. 1492 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 18: We just like to have bad relationship to get beat 1493 01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:18,479 Speaker 18: up on. And so if we're going to get beat 1494 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:21,840 Speaker 18: up verbally by somebody, who better than Dione Sanders and 1495 01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 18: his son. But the good news is this is a 1496 01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 18: match made in heaven because the bar for the shered 1497 01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:29,800 Speaker 18: door Sanders is very low, and he only has to 1498 01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:31,479 Speaker 18: meet one number, and that's ten. 1499 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:33,120 Speaker 6: He only has to have. 1500 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:36,920 Speaker 18: Ten starts to be considered a success in Cleveland, because 1501 01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:40,679 Speaker 18: that's above average every other starter in the last ten 1502 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:42,080 Speaker 18: years in good stuff. 1503 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:43,640 Speaker 2: Hey, Bryce, you're on a good rule. I want to 1504 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:47,640 Speaker 2: ask you a question. I got about twenty seconds, and 1505 01:18:47,680 --> 01:18:50,160 Speaker 2: I don't want to cut you short. If you have 1506 01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:53,680 Speaker 2: more thoughts, I'll make you the last call over. If 1507 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:55,479 Speaker 2: you're going to hang on after the one am, you 1508 01:18:55,479 --> 01:18:57,480 Speaker 2: want to hang on and finish the rest of your thoughts, 1509 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,040 Speaker 2: I'll hold on. Okay, We'll continue you. Because he's given 1510 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 2: some good statistics and as to what the measure of 1511 01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:06,680 Speaker 2: success might be in Cleveland, because he's bringing up a 1512 01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:09,559 Speaker 2: good point. Maybe we need to grade this on the curve, 1513 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:12,479 Speaker 2: you know, not coming to go to a super Bowl 1514 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 2: or anything like that. Maybe you grade this on the 1515 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:17,680 Speaker 2: curve compared to other ones. Keep it locked. This is 1516 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:19,679 Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show.

Shod door success will be relative when you 1535 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:21,479 Speaker 2: compare it to what they've had. You know, I don't 1536 01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 2: want to put wars in your mouth, but continue on 1537 01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 2: with your point. 1538 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,040 Speaker 18: No, that was absolutely where I was going with this. 1539 01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:30,559 Speaker 18: I think we're so caught up on how well Baker 1540 01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:34,479 Speaker 18: Mayfield did in Baker Mayfield's greatest achievement in Cleveland was 1541 01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 18: his longevity. 1542 01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 12: That was it. 1543 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:38,120 Speaker 18: Did you go back and look at his numbers? He 1544 01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:41,519 Speaker 18: had one foloid year, but his last few years there 1545 01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:45,840 Speaker 18: were pretty bleak throughout the league. I mean it was, Oh, 1546 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:47,280 Speaker 18: I just had him pulled up. But I think his 1547 01:20:47,439 --> 01:20:50,640 Speaker 18: last year he had like twenty two touchdowns twenty one interceptions. 1548 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:53,639 Speaker 2: He did win a left game, did he not? Bryce 1549 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:54,840 Speaker 2: He did win a playoff game. 1550 01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:57,320 Speaker 18: He did win a playoff game against the team that 1551 01:20:57,360 --> 01:20:58,400 Speaker 18: had a backup quarterback. 1552 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:00,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, well they went into Pittsburgh. I think the game 1553 01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:02,320 Speaker 2: was played in Pittsburgh if I'm not mistaken. 1554 01:21:04,439 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think it was a good. 1555 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:09,719 Speaker 2: So the bottom line is, do you think Schador will, 1556 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:13,720 Speaker 2: in the words of Mel Kuiper, create a situation where 1557 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:18,160 Speaker 2: other teams regret multiple teams regret not taking them. 1558 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:20,920 Speaker 18: I don't think the other teams regret not taking him, 1559 01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:22,439 Speaker 18: But I think the Browns made a good choice. 1560 01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:23,759 Speaker 2: He could sit behind Joe. 1561 01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:25,960 Speaker 18: Blacko for a year and learn from him and then 1562 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:29,639 Speaker 18: be set to have a long, longer sit in Cleveland 1563 01:21:29,680 --> 01:21:32,840 Speaker 18: than what people are expecting that and so you expect. 1564 01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:35,240 Speaker 2: Him to beat out Dylan Gabriel then, because look what 1565 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,000 Speaker 2: it's going to be like. I don't know what the 1566 01:21:37,080 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 2: hell they're gonna do with the Sean Watson, but Flacco's 1567 01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,200 Speaker 2: going to make the team, and Kenny Pickett's going to 1568 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:43,400 Speaker 2: make the team, and they're not going to carry four quarterbacks. 1569 01:21:43,720 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 2: You can't do that on a fifty three man roster. 1570 01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:50,920 Speaker 2: One of them he'll be on a scout team or 1571 01:21:51,080 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 2: he'll be on the h but they don't call it 1572 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 2: the taxi squad anymore. But you know where I'm going, 1573 01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 2: all right? Anything else? 1574 01:21:57,720 --> 01:21:58,120 Speaker 10: Uh No? 1575 01:21:58,120 --> 01:21:58,760 Speaker 16: So that was all. 1576 01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 18: I didn't want to thank too much time and not 1577 01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:01,640 Speaker 18: use all my time on that. 1578 01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:04,919 Speaker 2: All right, sounds good. I think it's a good perspective. 1579 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 2: All the callers just simply outstanding tonight, thoughtful, Okay, in 1580 01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:14,400 Speaker 2: terms of well, you know, what are they going to 1581 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 2: surround you do or with if he gets his chance. 1582 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:18,879 Speaker 2: If he earns his chance, those are all fair points. 1583 01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,280 Speaker 2: Or on the other hand, sometimes you've got to be 1584 01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:23,360 Speaker 2: the guy to lift the team above you. That was 1585 01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:26,400 Speaker 2: always my beef with Matt Stafford Detroit. People think I'm 1586 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:29,240 Speaker 2: a Stafford hater. No I'm not. I just got tired 1587 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 2: of the fact they said he never had anything to 1588 01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:33,760 Speaker 2: work with in Detroit, where that's not true. Yes, for 1589 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 2: the twelve years he was there, he didn't. But of 1590 01:22:37,960 --> 01:22:39,720 Speaker 2: the twelve years he didn't, but four of me did, 1591 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:44,400 Speaker 2: and and he fumbled it. I mean, in the twenty 1592 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:47,559 Speaker 2: fourteen team in Detroit had the number three ranked defense. 1593 01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:51,040 Speaker 2: You had in Dominican Sue, you had Calvin Johnson. They 1594 01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 2: won twelve games that year, they went to the playoffs. 1595 01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:54,720 Speaker 2: He had Dallas beating the road, and Stafford turned the 1596 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:56,760 Speaker 2: Bowl over twice in the fourth quarter. I know you're 1597 01:22:56,760 --> 01:23:01,599 Speaker 2: tired of hearing that story. My listeners are particularly tired 1598 01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:03,840 Speaker 2: of hearing this story. But it's the truth, all right. 1599 01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:06,360 Speaker 2: So look, part of it's predicated on who they surround 1600 01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: him with. I want to see if his game translates. 1601 01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:12,800 Speaker 2: I'm just one hundred percent sure I think you put 1602 01:23:12,840 --> 01:23:17,160 Speaker 2: him on the field with NFL at NFL speed, He's 1603 01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:18,840 Speaker 2: got to ramp it up quite a bit more than 1604 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 2: you realize. I'm not saying he can't. I look, and 1605 01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:23,720 Speaker 2: I want to get to some of the tweets I 1606 01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:26,559 Speaker 2: wasn't able to get to earlier Homeward nineteen sixty seven, 1607 01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:30,160 Speaker 2: said Bernie. The question on Shodor Sanders is will the 1608 01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:32,320 Speaker 2: Browns give him a fair shot? They have few or 1609 01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:35,639 Speaker 2: four qbs and drafted Dylan Gabriel. The Browns weren't exactly 1610 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:39,040 Speaker 2: high fiving each other when they drafted them. Well, that's true. 1611 01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 2: That's a visual that's going to hang around a long time, 1612 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 2: kind of like Laramie Tunsel's a mask back in the 1613 01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen draft. I mean, these things stick. But if 1614 01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,519 Speaker 2: Shodor has success, no one will care. But boy, if 1615 01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:57,080 Speaker 2: you saw that draft room, my goodness, gracious, look like 1616 01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 2: some you know, they all just smelled a bad fart 1617 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:01,080 Speaker 2: and he can wouldn't get off there. You know, it 1618 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,680 Speaker 2: just it wasn't a good look. Okay, let's maybe we 1619 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:06,400 Speaker 2: don't read too much into it. Spoxwed says, I think 1620 01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:09,040 Speaker 2: Schador sliding in the draft will be a blessing in disguise, 1621 01:24:09,320 --> 01:24:12,120 Speaker 2: it very well could be. It's a real come down 1622 01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,000 Speaker 2: for him. The chip on his shoulder he's going to 1623 01:24:14,040 --> 01:24:16,000 Speaker 2: have will be the best fuel to be the best 1624 01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 2: he can be. He'll get a chance to play in Cleveland, 1625 01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:22,200 Speaker 2: and he mel may indeed be a profit. Well, that 1626 01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:25,479 Speaker 2: may very well be true. I said this many years 1627 01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:28,639 Speaker 2: ago that when Dan Marino in the nineteen eighty three draft, 1628 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:31,559 Speaker 2: you know, which was the best quarterback draft of all time. 1629 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 2: Marino was the sixth quarterback picked overall, behind guys like 1630 01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,240 Speaker 2: you know, Kenny O'Brien and Todd Blackledge. But he went 1631 01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 2: to Miami, who had been in the Super Bowl the 1632 01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:43,760 Speaker 2: year before. He was coached by Don Shula, a Hall 1633 01:24:43,800 --> 01:24:45,280 Speaker 2: of Fame coach, and when he was coach of all 1634 01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:50,680 Speaker 2: time and a quarterback Whisburg. And because he fell, the 1635 01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:53,320 Speaker 2: expectations and pressure was not the great and Marino let 1636 01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 2: it up, he didn't win a Super Bowl. I get it, 1637 01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:58,639 Speaker 2: all right, So I think it is a blessing in disguise. 1638 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:00,920 Speaker 2: This is not a bad spot. It's what you make 1639 01:25:00,960 --> 01:25:03,840 Speaker 2: of it. It's what you make of it, you know. 1640 01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,559 Speaker 2: Terry Bradshaw went to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Look, look, at 1641 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 2: what they were before he got there. So and I 1642 01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:13,960 Speaker 2: could name other examples. Here's a chance for Chador to 1643 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:17,400 Speaker 2: take a blank canvas and pain paining a masterpiece. Cowboy 1644 01:25:17,520 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 2: Drew says, a lot of teams will will regret not 1645 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 2: taking Sanders. May well be right, We've got to let 1646 01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,599 Speaker 2: this play out. Have you have you ever a little 1647 01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 2: later in the show, by the way, I'm gonna do this. 1648 01:25:30,600 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you the top quarterbacks who were drafted 1649 01:25:36,680 --> 01:25:39,639 Speaker 2: specifically in the fifth round, and we're gonna go back 1650 01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,120 Speaker 2: a long way and there's some good names in there, 1651 01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 2: more than you think. So you know, whoever said it's 1652 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:49,920 Speaker 2: not you know where you're drafted, it's you know that 1653 01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:52,280 Speaker 2: you're drafted and what you do with it when you 1654 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:56,040 Speaker 2: get there. And those are facts. But did you ever 1655 01:25:56,200 --> 01:26:02,040 Speaker 2: wonder what teams do, how they havevaluate NFL draft prospects. 1656 01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:07,960 Speaker 2: It is incredibly thorough, incredibly they evaluate. I mean, it's 1657 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:12,640 Speaker 2: a multifaceted process. Okay, obviously it starts with scouting, but 1658 01:26:12,680 --> 01:26:16,040 Speaker 2: then there's testing. You know, you go through the the 1659 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:21,160 Speaker 2: the measurables, you go through the you know, the traits, 1660 01:26:21,760 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 2: and then you look at what their performance. You analyze film, 1661 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,160 Speaker 2: you look at their character assessments, They put them through 1662 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:30,760 Speaker 2: various testing, They analyze their college games, and then they 1663 01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 2: conduct interviews not just with the you know, the player 1664 01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:37,120 Speaker 2: that they may or may not draft, but with coaches. 1665 01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:39,640 Speaker 2: They talk to other coaches, They talk to players to 1666 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:43,200 Speaker 2: assess their strengths and weaknesses. The beauty of it is 1667 01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:46,519 Speaker 2: and this is why the NFL Scouting Combine can be 1668 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:50,240 Speaker 2: very valuable. It provides a centralized platform for a lot 1669 01:26:50,280 --> 01:26:54,680 Speaker 2: of evaluations, physical testing, medical evaluations. It allows teams to 1670 01:26:54,720 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 2: sort of validate and confirm whatever their scouting judgments are. 1671 01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:01,400 Speaker 2: It gets use them an opportunity to gather a lot 1672 01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:04,640 Speaker 2: of crucial medical information. Also, you get a chance to 1673 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:09,639 Speaker 2: talk face to face background character, off field conduct. Chador 1674 01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:13,679 Speaker 2: chose not to attend the combine, and see that's where 1675 01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 2: the BS meter hit me, because if you really thought 1676 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,040 Speaker 2: he was going second or through overall, I mean he 1677 01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:22,679 Speaker 2: was wearing New York Giant cleats what two or three 1678 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 2: months ago, and you know someone asked me you going 1679 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:27,000 Speaker 2: to the combin. He goes, now we know where we going. No, 1680 01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:28,800 Speaker 2: he thought he was going to New York. I think 1681 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:31,040 Speaker 2: I think he wanted to go to New York. Fortunately, 1682 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 2: New York wasn't interested in him. Maybe he might have 1683 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:36,639 Speaker 2: benefited from going to Combine. We'll never know. I realized 1684 01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:38,479 Speaker 2: that if you really know where you're going, and you know, 1685 01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:40,719 Speaker 2: Travis Hunter didn't need to go to the combine. Okay, 1686 01:27:40,960 --> 01:27:43,720 Speaker 2: he couldn't improve his stock, neither would have cam Ord. 1687 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 2: But someone like Shador he misread the room, I think. 1688 01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 2: But again again, this is all going to start up 1689 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:54,240 Speaker 2: again in July, and he's gonna get on the field. 1690 01:27:55,400 --> 01:27:59,639 Speaker 2: The evaluation process starts to go to you know, skew downward. 1691 01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:03,240 Speaker 2: From there, you start with scouting and film review. Okay, 1692 01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:05,800 Speaker 2: scouts have already attended a lot of the college games 1693 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,160 Speaker 2: that Shudor played in. They observe them in their natural environment. 1694 01:28:09,200 --> 01:28:11,360 Speaker 2: That's what they're there for, and they are allowed, you know, 1695 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:13,719 Speaker 2: they were able to assess their skills and decision making 1696 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:18,160 Speaker 2: abilities in a game setting and game speed. Then they 1697 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:20,519 Speaker 2: take that and they'll make they'll take film from that, 1698 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,200 Speaker 2: and they'll go back and watch the game tape to 1699 01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:28,160 Speaker 2: reanalyze and play backup players performance in various scenarios. And 1700 01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:30,920 Speaker 2: there's when they'll start to identify strengths and weaknesses. Now, 1701 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,320 Speaker 2: the great Bill Walsh used to say, don't tell me 1702 01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:36,400 Speaker 2: what a quarterback can't do, tell me what he can do. 1703 01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:40,920 Speaker 2: And then again you're back to interviews, coaches, players, people 1704 01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,400 Speaker 2: who are involved in the player's program. They want insights 1705 01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,400 Speaker 2: into their what you know doesn't show up on the newspaper. 1706 01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 2: And you know where we're going with that. Okay, again, 1707 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,439 Speaker 2: I want to repeat the combine. The combine serves as 1708 01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 2: a standardized platform. Everybody's on an equal footing. There you 1709 01:28:56,640 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 2: got agility drills, strength tests, medical evaluations, physical tests, and 1710 01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:04,640 Speaker 2: again it's used to sort of confirm or validate a 1711 01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:08,400 Speaker 2: scout's judgment and impression and try to get a deeper 1712 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:12,640 Speaker 2: understanding of what you'd beginning, what is this player's real capabilities? 1713 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:16,800 Speaker 2: Again along with medical assessments. And finally, this is important. 1714 01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 2: I don't you know. I know Ryan Clark said, here's 1715 01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:22,160 Speaker 2: a kid who's never been in trouble. Yeah, it's true, 1716 01:29:22,240 --> 01:29:24,360 Speaker 2: best of my knowledge, he's never been in trouble. So 1717 01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,719 Speaker 2: what is that your base? You've never been in trouble? 1718 01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:30,599 Speaker 2: Whooped the damn do? You're not supposed to be in 1719 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,760 Speaker 2: trouble now? I know Baker Mayfield got in trouble, and 1720 01:29:33,800 --> 01:29:36,479 Speaker 2: that seemed to really bother Ryan Clark that he still 1721 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 2: got drafted high. Ryan Clark made sure to point that out. Now, 1722 01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:44,720 Speaker 2: I'm not for, you know, condoning what Baker Mayfield did. 1723 01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,160 Speaker 2: He got tackled by that cop. You've seen the video. 1724 01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:50,280 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield, you know, but he's turned out pretty good 1725 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:52,120 Speaker 2: in the NFL, hasn't he like what he's done in 1726 01:29:52,120 --> 01:29:54,280 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay. So again, here's a chance to wipe the 1727 01:29:54,320 --> 01:29:56,960 Speaker 2: slave clean. And I'm not saying Shoot Door did anything wrong. 1728 01:29:57,240 --> 01:29:59,880 Speaker 2: I could rub some people the wrong way. I just 1729 01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:03,639 Speaker 2: I mean, human nature is human nature, and people are 1730 01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 2: going to form impressions based on the impressions you give off. 1731 01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:09,599 Speaker 2: If you're driving a Rules Royce on a college campus, 1732 01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:13,040 Speaker 2: you're giving off a certain impression you just are, all right. 1733 01:30:14,680 --> 01:30:17,439 Speaker 2: I don't give a damn what he drives. Again, I 1734 01:30:17,520 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 2: covered the NFL. They just want to win. If this 1735 01:30:21,040 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 2: kid can get on the field and help them win, 1736 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:26,559 Speaker 2: that's all that's gonna matter. The rest is Michigas take 1737 01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 2: it down river with you. It doesn't matter, all right. 1738 01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:32,360 Speaker 2: But character and background assessments. People look at their own 1739 01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:35,800 Speaker 2: they look deep into a player. They'll look into his 1740 01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:38,479 Speaker 2: work ethic. I have no reason to believe that Door 1741 01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:43,000 Speaker 2: Sanders does not have a good work ethic. His character, 1742 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:45,759 Speaker 2: I know nothing about him. Seems like a decent chap. 1743 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:48,720 Speaker 2: Seems like he's very full of himself. He inherited that 1744 01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:51,720 Speaker 2: from his dad. His dad could back it up. His 1745 01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:54,120 Speaker 2: dad played Major League Baseball. He was a good player. 1746 01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:56,599 Speaker 2: His dad played in the NFL, played the Super Bowl, 1747 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,600 Speaker 2: play in the World Series. He ain't his dad. I 1748 01:30:59,760 --> 01:31:01,800 Speaker 2: think if he ain't shoot Door Sanders, he's his dad. 1749 01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:04,599 Speaker 2: Tell me why you think that? In a thousand wards 1750 01:31:04,640 --> 01:31:08,519 Speaker 2: or less come on attitude, I don't think she Door 1751 01:31:08,600 --> 01:31:12,200 Speaker 2: has a bad attitude. He has at attitude. Depending on 1752 01:31:12,280 --> 01:31:17,560 Speaker 2: your personal subjective feelings, you might think he's cocky. You 1753 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:20,559 Speaker 2: might think he's as confident. Does he have leadership qualities 1754 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 2: he appears to, But you don't exist. You know, you 1755 01:31:23,560 --> 01:31:26,519 Speaker 2: don't express that leadership in an NFL locker room by 1756 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:30,040 Speaker 2: talking and going raw raw. That'll last about ten seconds. 1757 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 2: You get on the field and you make place. After that, 1758 01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:38,679 Speaker 2: all the background checks, interviews, coaches, teams, et cetera, family background, 1759 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:41,880 Speaker 2: academic performance convinium. Let me try that to get an 1760 01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:46,040 Speaker 2: English community involvement. Those are all considered as factors in 1761 01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:49,760 Speaker 2: a player's overall evaluation. So I'm gonna go back to 1762 01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:52,760 Speaker 2: what I said at the top of the show, why 1763 01:31:52,840 --> 01:32:00,400 Speaker 2: did he slide? Why did you door slide? Because the 1764 01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:03,840 Speaker 2: only people who really believed he would go second or 1765 01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:07,759 Speaker 2: third overall or ninth or certainly not past twenty first 1766 01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:12,559 Speaker 2: were his agents and his PR team and his holm 1767 01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 2: Shpooka of the Sanders team Sanders, Shiloh Sanders, Dion Sanders Junior, 1768 01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:23,400 Speaker 2: Dion Sanders, Shador Sanders, and his posse and his PR team, 1769 01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:27,519 Speaker 2: And that's spilled into the media. They said it. They 1770 01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 2: created that expectation. Nobody I know that I talked to 1771 01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 2: that has NFL experience and NFL inside or not, he's 1772 01:32:36,439 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 2: had him as a first round draft choice. There's no 1773 01:32:39,200 --> 01:32:42,080 Speaker 2: crime against that. I guess later in the show, I'm 1774 01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:43,799 Speaker 2: gonna give you a lot of the fifth round choices 1775 01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:46,200 Speaker 2: who are a lot of games in the NFL. All right. 1776 01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:48,840 Speaker 2: I also want to say that I don't think his 1777 01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:53,519 Speaker 2: approach to the pre draft process was serving him well. 1778 01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:57,080 Speaker 2: And it might be a primer and a cautionary tale 1779 01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 2: and what not to do if you're a future quarterback. 1780 01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:02,000 Speaker 2: Don't you to declare yourself something you aren't and hoping 1781 01:33:02,040 --> 01:33:05,000 Speaker 2: he nobody checks you out. The reality here is Sanders 1782 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,680 Speaker 2: is a good football player. He appears to be a 1783 01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:11,240 Speaker 2: quality prospect, someone who could eventually turn into a functional 1784 01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:13,960 Speaker 2: starter in the NFL. Again, as one of the earlier 1785 01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:16,519 Speaker 2: callers said, he's got to be surrounded by talent and 1786 01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:20,040 Speaker 2: a good offensive line, but they're still he has to 1787 01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:24,720 Speaker 2: get on the field and prove against NFL players that 1788 01:33:24,880 --> 01:33:27,680 Speaker 2: he has the arm talent. Those wins he threw in 1789 01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:30,240 Speaker 2: college aren't going to close in the NFL. They're not 1790 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:33,200 Speaker 2: going to be as wide. He's got to prove he's 1791 01:33:33,200 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 2: got pocket processing ability in general proclivities to play the position. 1792 01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:40,680 Speaker 2: He can't just take off a run. He can't hold 1793 01:33:40,680 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 2: the ball for three seconds. He can't get sacked like 1794 01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,800 Speaker 2: he did at Colorado. And also, I think that the 1795 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:51,559 Speaker 2: perception that Shudor was a little overconfident for his own 1796 01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:57,600 Speaker 2: good is accurate. It's it's spot on. It's just spot on, 1797 01:33:57,840 --> 01:34:02,639 Speaker 2: as simple as that. So there you have it all good. 1798 01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:05,120 Speaker 2: He gets a chance to prove himself. I think the 1799 01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:08,519 Speaker 2: great story would be I really do. I think the 1800 01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 2: great story would be that Schador leads he somehow finds 1801 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:15,240 Speaker 2: his way in the field, becomes a starter, and leads 1802 01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:17,840 Speaker 2: the Brons to the playoffs. That would be a story 1803 01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:20,720 Speaker 2: ridding for him to fail as a fool's Errand as 1804 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:22,679 Speaker 2: a matter of fact, I want to take two seconds 1805 01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:26,640 Speaker 2: to call out these knuckleheads from University of Mississippi. What 1806 01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:30,960 Speaker 2: were you thinking finding the number? Somebody must have leaked 1807 01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:34,720 Speaker 2: that number because the NFL has a documented base of 1808 01:34:34,760 --> 01:34:36,360 Speaker 2: phone numbers for all these guys that don't know who 1809 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:38,519 Speaker 2: to call, and they call him, and I mean, this 1810 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,599 Speaker 2: is this young man's life, and you pull that crap. 1811 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:43,439 Speaker 2: I hope these kids are in trouble for what they did. 1812 01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:45,800 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm serious. If you didn't hear about it, 1813 01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:50,040 Speaker 2: they pulled a prank. They called Shador Sanders and pretended 1814 01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:52,040 Speaker 2: they were the New York Orland Saintsans and you've been 1815 01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:54,519 Speaker 2: drafted by the Saints. I don't have any other details 1816 01:34:54,560 --> 01:34:57,840 Speaker 2: past that, but apparently it did happen. I think Chador 1817 01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:00,040 Speaker 2: was kind of street smart enough to figure out and 1818 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:04,639 Speaker 2: feel right about this call. But regardless, that's beyond malicious, 1819 01:35:05,080 --> 01:35:09,280 Speaker 2: completely unnecessary, and is beyond me why someone would have 1820 01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:12,519 Speaker 2: to drum up something like that, I'm not going to 1821 01:35:12,560 --> 01:35:14,360 Speaker 2: be doing my brand new Fool segment tonight because I 1822 01:35:14,360 --> 01:35:17,800 Speaker 2: got a guest at two am. But your brand new fools, Okay, 1823 01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:20,320 Speaker 2: that's what you are.

I see that in a 1833 01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:55,439 Speaker 2: colloquial sense because we always do this, right, Who were 1834 01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:59,479 Speaker 2: the winners and losers? And yes, it's not credit to 1835 01:35:59,560 --> 01:36:05,200 Speaker 2: Nick Right who said, fooy on, all you people who 1836 01:36:05,800 --> 01:36:08,320 Speaker 2: beneath you to give draft grades two days after the draft. Well, 1837 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:11,719 Speaker 2: you certainly can give draft grades. I mean, the Lions 1838 01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:14,320 Speaker 2: every year would need offensive linemen, and Matt Millan would 1839 01:36:14,360 --> 01:36:16,880 Speaker 2: draft a wide receiver. He got an f built a 1840 01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,280 Speaker 2: team from the periphery. Didn't work, did it? 1841 01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:20,240 Speaker 17: So? 1842 01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:22,599 Speaker 2: You can draft, you can give grades. I'm not gonna 1843 01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:23,840 Speaker 2: give grades, but I'm gonna look at some of the 1844 01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:27,320 Speaker 2: notables right players who were drafted. It seemed to be 1845 01:36:27,400 --> 01:36:30,000 Speaker 2: a bullseye for the teams that drafted him and others 1846 01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:32,360 Speaker 2: not so much. I'm Bernie fraddlework company line for the 1847 01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:35,479 Speaker 2: Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio studios.

James Gladstone, thirty four years old, his 1873 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 2: first ever stint as an NFL general manager, pulls off 1874 01:38:14,920 --> 01:38:18,760 Speaker 2: the most notable, perhaps stunning in some people's eyes move 1875 01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,880 Speaker 2: of the night, right out of the geat when he 1876 01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:26,240 Speaker 2: made a deal with Cleveland that moved Jacksonville from the 1877 01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:29,800 Speaker 2: fifth pick to the second overall pick. The Browns got 1878 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:32,880 Speaker 2: the fifth pick in the first round. They did great 1879 01:38:32,920 --> 01:38:34,800 Speaker 2: with that pick, by the way, Mason Graham's a stud. 1880 01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:37,639 Speaker 2: They got the thirty sixth overall pick in the second round, 1881 01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 2: the one hundred and twenty sixth overall pick in the 1882 01:38:40,560 --> 01:38:42,560 Speaker 2: first round, pick that the Jags would have had in 1883 01:38:42,600 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 2: twenty twenty sixth The Jags got that second overall pick, 1884 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:47,720 Speaker 2: the one hundred and fourth pick in the fourth round, 1885 01:38:47,760 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 2: and then a sixth round pick, the two hundred pick. 1886 01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:52,200 Speaker 2: And what did they do with that pick? Well, you 1887 01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:54,320 Speaker 2: know what they did. They used it on Travis Hunter. 1888 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:57,519 Speaker 2: Now I realized they paid a hefty price to make 1889 01:38:57,560 --> 01:39:01,240 Speaker 2: the deal happen. But Travis Hunters a generation player. He's 1890 01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,280 Speaker 2: gonna put butts in seats and he's the type of 1891 01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:07,519 Speaker 2: guy who can can really change a culture by what 1892 01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:11,280 Speaker 2: he does. He's just electrifying some of the plays he made. 1893 01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:14,160 Speaker 2: If you remember the very first game against North Dakota 1894 01:39:14,200 --> 01:39:20,960 Speaker 2: State last August twenty ninth National TV game standalone game Colorado. 1895 01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 2: Early on, North Dakota State took a three to nothing lead. 1896 01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:28,639 Speaker 2: Just a few minutes later, Travis Hunter caught a sixty 1897 01:39:28,680 --> 01:39:33,840 Speaker 2: two yard touchdown pass, just electifying, electrifying, And you know 1898 01:39:34,439 --> 01:39:38,320 Speaker 2: he helps Jacksonville plug two big needs. Jacksonville had a 1899 01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:40,800 Speaker 2: need at receiver and they haven't need a corner. They 1900 01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:44,080 Speaker 2: fell two needs with one player two birds one stone. 1901 01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:47,720 Speaker 2: So the fact that this guy had the cajones to 1902 01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:50,360 Speaker 2: make him move that quickly that early. And I know 1903 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:52,640 Speaker 2: he was criticized for the amount of capitally gave up, 1904 01:39:52,720 --> 01:39:56,160 Speaker 2: but guess what you gotta give to get sometimes in 1905 01:39:56,280 --> 01:39:59,439 Speaker 2: this league. And I think you have to give him 1906 01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:02,200 Speaker 2: an a g not only for that pick, but for 1907 01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:04,840 Speaker 2: the picks that followed also because after that they got 1908 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:09,519 Speaker 2: a cornerback Caleb Bransaw and Wyatt Mileham in the third round. 1909 01:40:09,560 --> 01:40:13,599 Speaker 2: They also got Virginia running Tech Vishultoton and these guys 1910 01:40:13,640 --> 01:40:17,160 Speaker 2: can all play. Okay, these are guys that are gonna 1911 01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:18,960 Speaker 2: get on the field this year. 1912 01:40:20,080 --> 01:40:20,759 Speaker 6: This year. 1913 01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:26,960 Speaker 2: Jacksonville serve notice. And if Trevor Lawrence can somehow start 1914 01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:31,000 Speaker 2: to reach the potential everybody thought he had, the Jacks 1915 01:40:31,080 --> 01:40:33,160 Speaker 2: could be good. And they're in lines by the reason, 1916 01:40:33,200 --> 01:40:36,519 Speaker 2: I think the shador was that rated highly. In my boat, 1917 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:39,599 Speaker 2: he's not gonna get on the field this year. He might, 1918 01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:43,439 Speaker 2: he's not gonna help Cleveland win this year. If he does, 1919 01:40:43,520 --> 01:40:46,280 Speaker 2: he does, I'll eat my words. But I don't see 1920 01:40:46,320 --> 01:40:48,680 Speaker 2: that happening. And from all the years I covered the 1921 01:40:48,760 --> 01:40:51,720 Speaker 2: draft with the Lions, you got that first round pick 1922 01:40:51,880 --> 01:40:54,679 Speaker 2: much less top ten pick. You have to say to yourself, 1923 01:40:54,760 --> 01:40:57,720 Speaker 2: this guy's starting day one, and we can plug him 1924 01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,920 Speaker 2: into our lineup the next five years and look for 1925 01:41:01,040 --> 01:41:02,760 Speaker 2: him to make at least Pro Bowls three of those 1926 01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 2: five years or all Pro. That's the way it is now. 1927 01:41:06,280 --> 01:41:12,840 Speaker 2: Cam Ward obviously gets no mention, very little. After taking 1928 01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:16,920 Speaker 2: Ward with the first overall pick, the Titans did their 1929 01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:19,759 Speaker 2: best to try to surround him with a few weapons, 1930 01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:22,040 Speaker 2: and in the fourth round they got a couple of 1931 01:41:22,080 --> 01:41:25,439 Speaker 2: good receivers to Marry d k and the leak CanYa Manner, 1932 01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:29,599 Speaker 2: and a tight end named Gunner Helm. Those three guys, okay, 1933 01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:33,400 Speaker 2: they became Tennessee became who think they are? Matt Millen, 1934 01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:37,639 Speaker 2: the first team in seventeen years to draft three pass catchers, 1935 01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:45,160 Speaker 2: three receivers in the single round. Now they're all gonna 1936 01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:48,320 Speaker 2: play though. They are all gonna help this Titans team. Okay, 1937 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:51,240 Speaker 2: And by the way, they also the Titans after the 1938 01:41:51,320 --> 01:41:54,280 Speaker 2: draft went out and signed cam Ward's number one target 1939 01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 2: last year at Miyami xavier 'strepo. He's an undrafted free 1940 01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 2: agent and look Ward mentioned he wanted to play with Rastrepo, 1941 01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:05,640 Speaker 2: and he Titans got the message, so they were helping him. 1942 01:42:06,600 --> 01:42:08,760 Speaker 2: I think the Titans will be improved and we'll see 1943 01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:10,600 Speaker 2: how cam Woord does. He's got a lot on his 1944 01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:14,000 Speaker 2: shoulders to who much is given, much is expected. But 1945 01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:19,880 Speaker 2: Cam Woard, you gotta love his story. Wasn't recruited out 1946 01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:23,840 Speaker 2: of high school, went to Incarnate Word, made a name 1947 01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:26,040 Speaker 2: for himself, ended up in Washington State and that police 1948 01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:28,080 Speaker 2: did very well and ended up in Miami and he 1949 01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:30,240 Speaker 2: made a lot of big time throws this past year, 1950 01:42:30,320 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 2: big time. How about the Ohio State Buckeyes. Did anybody 1951 01:42:34,320 --> 01:42:38,120 Speaker 2: notice the year national champion Ohio State Buckeyes had a 1952 01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:41,800 Speaker 2: total of fourteen players taking in the draft. That's tied 1953 01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:45,120 Speaker 2: for the second most by any school for the first 1954 01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:49,120 Speaker 2: seven rounds of the draft. And Amika Abuca was the 1955 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 2: first Buckeye to go off the board as well. He 1956 01:42:51,080 --> 01:42:53,280 Speaker 2: should have one of the best receivers. He's going to 1957 01:42:53,320 --> 01:42:56,320 Speaker 2: step right into the league, be a target for Baker Mayfield. 1958 01:42:56,360 --> 01:42:59,680 Speaker 2: With nineteenth overall, the guys a stud and you talk 1959 01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:03,960 Speaker 2: about character checks every box and then Will Howard even 1960 01:43:04,040 --> 01:43:06,280 Speaker 2: finally you know, one hundred and sixty six picks, he 1961 01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:08,920 Speaker 2: was a hundred and eight fifth pick overall. Will Howard 1962 01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:11,360 Speaker 2: became the final Buckeye to go off the board. And 1963 01:43:11,439 --> 01:43:15,280 Speaker 2: who was you drafted by the Steelers. The Steelers did 1964 01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:19,679 Speaker 2: draft the quarterback, you know, they passed on Chaudor five times, 1965 01:43:19,720 --> 01:43:26,599 Speaker 2: but they finally drafted a quarterback in Will Howards. Something 1966 01:43:26,680 --> 01:43:31,040 Speaker 2: to keep an eye on, you know. Robert Salah clearly 1967 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,759 Speaker 2: was not the problem in New York for the Jets. 1968 01:43:34,479 --> 01:43:36,800 Speaker 2: He'd been away from San Francisco for five years and 1969 01:43:36,880 --> 01:43:41,600 Speaker 2: he was a phenomenal defensive coordinator and he's back with 1970 01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. And the forty nine Ers said, Robert, 1971 01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:45,479 Speaker 2: we want you back. We're glad to have you back. 1972 01:43:46,439 --> 01:43:50,200 Speaker 2: We're gonna draft defensive guys. And the Niners used their 1973 01:43:50,240 --> 01:43:55,200 Speaker 2: first five picks in the draft on defensive players, just 1974 01:43:55,280 --> 01:43:58,920 Speaker 2: a second time in history that they've done that. But 1975 01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:03,599 Speaker 2: these are guys you're gonna hear about. Michael Williams, Alfred Collins, 1976 01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:07,040 Speaker 2: Nick Martin Upton Stout out of Western Kentucky's a little guy, 1977 01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:09,880 Speaker 2: one of the hardest hitters in the draft. CJ. West. 1978 01:44:10,760 --> 01:44:14,120 Speaker 2: The Niners aren't dunnies. Okay, they cleaned some house, cleared 1979 01:44:14,160 --> 01:44:16,200 Speaker 2: some cap space. Not one hundred percent sure what they're 1980 01:44:16,200 --> 01:44:20,160 Speaker 2: gonna do with Brock Prody. But that's this NFC West 1981 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:22,160 Speaker 2: is a very winnable decision. I know everybody wants to 1982 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:25,080 Speaker 2: crown the Rams. Seattle'll have a say in that. Even 1983 01:44:25,120 --> 01:44:27,240 Speaker 2: in Arizona got a little better. But don't go to 1984 01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:31,040 Speaker 2: sleep on the Niners. I think Robert Salla is looking 1985 01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:34,560 Speaker 2: at chops at the idea of playing Michael Williams and 1986 01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:39,360 Speaker 2: Nick Bolsa together, a couple of great, great pass rushers. Remember, 1987 01:44:39,400 --> 01:44:42,680 Speaker 2: the Niners lost a bunch of key defensive players this 1988 01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:47,479 Speaker 2: past season. Javon Hargrave, Leonard Floyd, Dre Greenlaw, Javarius Ward. Look, 1989 01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:50,880 Speaker 2: that's just the way it is, all right. We all 1990 01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:53,600 Speaker 2: paid close attention, on least some of us did, to 1991 01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:59,200 Speaker 2: Tom Brady, because Tom Brady was extremely active in terms 1992 01:44:59,240 --> 01:45:05,759 Speaker 2: of his influence and input and decision making with the draft. 1993 01:45:05,840 --> 01:45:08,720 Speaker 2: This was his first draft, and it's really sort of 1994 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:12,759 Speaker 2: interesting if you look what Brady did. Maybe he's looking 1995 01:45:12,880 --> 01:45:17,200 Speaker 2: for another guy below the radar, like he was in 1996 01:45:17,280 --> 01:45:19,320 Speaker 2: the sixth round of the draft. And this may or 1997 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:22,639 Speaker 2: may not be a coincidence. Probably not. The Raiders took 1998 01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:26,920 Speaker 2: two quarterbacks in the sixth round. Now I'm not that 1999 01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:30,800 Speaker 2: familiar with Montana State's County im a lot. I think 2000 01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:33,800 Speaker 2: he's a Julian Edelman type, but I'm very familiar with 2001 01:45:33,880 --> 01:45:38,880 Speaker 2: North Dakota State's cam Miller. Cam Miller was outstanding at 2002 01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:42,439 Speaker 2: North Dakota State. He put up huge numbers. I will 2003 01:45:42,520 --> 01:45:48,759 Speaker 2: tell you against Shador Sanders Colorado team on that Thursday 2004 01:45:48,840 --> 01:45:52,680 Speaker 2: night to start the season, he gave them everything that 2005 01:45:53,040 --> 01:45:57,760 Speaker 2: Colorado could handle. All right, I mean I love this pick, 2006 01:45:57,880 --> 01:46:02,040 Speaker 2: cam Miller, And on that night against Colorado, he was terrific. 2007 01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:03,760 Speaker 2: He threw for two undred and seventy seven yards in 2008 01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:06,439 Speaker 2: a touchdown. He also ran for eighty one yards and 2009 01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:09,480 Speaker 2: two touchdowns, averaged over five yards of cary against Colorado. 2010 01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:12,200 Speaker 2: By the way, Chador ran for seventeen yards at night, 2011 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:14,479 Speaker 2: averaged about two yards of carry. Yeah, I know, Colorado 2012 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:17,599 Speaker 2: won thirty one twenty six and Sudor threw for about 2013 01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:21,880 Speaker 2: four hundred. But cam Miller caught my eye quite a 2014 01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:25,240 Speaker 2: bit that night, and they also won the national championship. 2015 01:46:25,280 --> 01:46:28,120 Speaker 2: But this is a guy that can really play. I 2016 01:46:28,200 --> 01:46:31,559 Speaker 2: think Tom Brady and it'll be curious to see because 2017 01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:35,240 Speaker 2: cam Miller runs so well. I mean, he ran for 2018 01:46:35,360 --> 01:46:42,439 Speaker 2: like twenty three hundred yards and forty touchdowns in his career. Look, 2019 01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:45,720 Speaker 2: he's got Chip Kelly. I think he makes a team. 2020 01:46:46,439 --> 01:46:48,280 Speaker 2: We'll see what he does. It'll be interesting to see 2021 01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:54,920 Speaker 2: what he does. I'm not sure what this allot kid 2022 01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,400 Speaker 2: will do out of Montana. But Brady's not an idiot. 2023 01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:00,320 Speaker 2: I understand there's a talk that they'll switch him wide 2024 01:47:00,400 --> 01:47:03,479 Speaker 2: receiver because he's that athletic. But if you look at 2025 01:47:03,520 --> 01:47:07,560 Speaker 2: every one of the Raiders picks that Tom Brady and 2026 01:47:07,640 --> 01:47:10,840 Speaker 2: his former Michigan teammate who's now the GM and for 2027 01:47:10,920 --> 01:47:14,400 Speaker 2: the Raiders John Spytech made, they're all damn good picks. 2028 01:47:15,080 --> 01:47:18,160 Speaker 2: If you follow your football, they're all damn good picks. 2029 01:47:19,600 --> 01:47:23,240 Speaker 2: I think the Bears offense got better, man, I don't know. 2030 01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:25,719 Speaker 2: They say they're the best team in the NFC North. 2031 01:47:26,520 --> 01:47:31,040 Speaker 2: That's an exaggeration, but if you're being honest, you're gonna 2032 01:47:31,080 --> 01:47:33,240 Speaker 2: have to take notice of this team, especially on offense. 2033 01:47:33,680 --> 01:47:37,560 Speaker 2: They're starting to turn some heads. Okay, Colston Loveland on 2034 01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:40,320 Speaker 2: a Michigan They got him in the first round, temph 2035 01:47:40,400 --> 01:47:44,120 Speaker 2: overall pick. He was actually drafted, you know, ahead of 2036 01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:47,000 Speaker 2: another damn good tight end in the in the draft, 2037 01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:52,400 Speaker 2: and he's compared, you know, favorably to guys like Brock Bowers, 2038 01:47:53,280 --> 01:47:55,120 Speaker 2: and that's why the Bears took him. But they also 2039 01:47:55,160 --> 01:47:58,400 Speaker 2: selected Luther Burden a third and you got Ben Johnson 2040 01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 2: and Caleb Williams. So I thought progressed quite nicely in 2041 01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:05,600 Speaker 2: his first year. Ben Johnson has the creative mind to 2042 01:48:05,760 --> 01:48:10,400 Speaker 2: call plays with these two new weapons. And that's also 2043 01:48:11,360 --> 01:48:13,320 Speaker 2: make note of the fact the Bears have already started 2044 01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:18,880 Speaker 2: to overhaul their offensive line. They drafted Osi Trapillo out 2045 01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:22,200 Speaker 2: of Boston College, who's now a two more offensive players 2046 01:48:22,240 --> 01:48:24,400 Speaker 2: at the back end of the draft. And they even't 2047 01:48:24,439 --> 01:48:27,320 Speaker 2: have got themselves a running back in the sixth round. 2048 01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:31,280 Speaker 2: So from people off talk through, the Bears get very 2049 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:33,920 Speaker 2: high grades for all their picks, and I got to 2050 01:48:33,960 --> 01:48:37,920 Speaker 2: believe that Caleb Williams is probably quite pleased with the 2051 01:48:38,000 --> 01:48:43,760 Speaker 2: additions that the Bears have made. I'm going to watch 2052 01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:46,560 Speaker 2: the Tyler Shuck situation. That Saints had not taken a 2053 01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:50,040 Speaker 2: quarterback in the first two rounds of the draft for 2054 01:48:50,160 --> 01:48:54,720 Speaker 2: like fifty years, but that drought ended, you know, when 2055 01:48:54,760 --> 01:48:58,799 Speaker 2: New Orleans selected Shuck with the fortieth overall pick. Very interesting. 2056 01:49:01,040 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 2: He's walking into what I think is a very friendly 2057 01:49:03,479 --> 01:49:08,479 Speaker 2: quarterback situation. Derrick Carr is dealing with his shoulder injury. 2058 01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:12,360 Speaker 2: I do not believe he'll start the season. So Shuck 2059 01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:14,759 Speaker 2: is in a quarterback room with Spencer Ratler, Jay Canler, 2060 01:49:14,920 --> 01:49:19,720 Speaker 2: Ben Denucci not to be confused with Don Fiducci, with 2061 01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:22,280 Speaker 2: the godfather of the Black can So here's the deal. 2062 01:49:24,040 --> 01:49:27,560 Speaker 2: The reason I said Shuck has a favorable situation. I 2063 01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:31,080 Speaker 2: saw him in Louisville. He had his moments, but he's inconsistent, 2064 01:49:31,160 --> 01:49:35,920 Speaker 2: but he had his moments. I know the Saints fans 2065 01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:39,000 Speaker 2: can't be thrilled, nor should they be, because it's a 2066 01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:43,080 Speaker 2: completely unknown quantity. And the reality of it is, if 2067 01:49:43,200 --> 01:49:45,280 Speaker 2: Shuck can't beat out Ben de Nucci, j Canner and 2068 01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:48,040 Speaker 2: Spencer Ratler, then he may not be long for the 2069 01:49:48,080 --> 01:49:49,680 Speaker 2: Saints world. It's just all there is to doe. But 2070 01:49:49,720 --> 01:49:53,080 Speaker 2: the Saints drafted him pretty damn high. And you know, 2071 01:49:53,200 --> 01:49:56,120 Speaker 2: I think Kellen Moore knows a thing or two about 2072 01:49:56,120 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 2: the quarterback position. All right. He's coached DAK and he's 2073 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:03,800 Speaker 2: coached Jalen Hurts, and he did great at Boise State 2074 01:50:03,840 --> 01:50:07,080 Speaker 2: and had a cup of coffee in the NFL. And 2075 01:50:07,320 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 2: I would just say this that Oftentimes what happens on 2076 01:50:10,840 --> 01:50:13,080 Speaker 2: draft day looks great and turns out not to be 2077 01:50:13,200 --> 01:50:15,200 Speaker 2: so much. And then there are other times where you 2078 01:50:15,280 --> 01:50:18,040 Speaker 2: scratch your head and then you look up six months 2079 01:50:18,120 --> 01:50:21,400 Speaker 2: later go, oh, that's why they did that. But it 2080 01:50:21,479 --> 01:50:24,240 Speaker 2: has to play itself out, all right. So those are 2081 01:50:24,280 --> 01:50:27,000 Speaker 2: the things that caught my eye on the positive side 2082 01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,400 Speaker 2: of the ledger. Coming up, Let's take a look at 2083 01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:31,280 Speaker 2: some of the things that caught my eye on the 2084 01:50:31,680 --> 01:50:35,559 Speaker 2: negative side of the ledger.

And I started my 2102 01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:35,320 Speaker 2: show off by saying, hey, with it. You know, some 2103 01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:38,720 Speaker 2: good news and some bad news. And you know, no 2104 01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:41,120 Speaker 2: one likes if anybody ever hits you with that. You 2105 01:51:41,240 --> 01:51:42,720 Speaker 2: just don't like hearing it. It's like the old joke 2106 01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:46,400 Speaker 2: about the doctor calls up one of his patients and says, well, 2107 01:51:46,400 --> 01:51:48,400 Speaker 2: I got some bad news and some worse news. He 2108 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:51,080 Speaker 2: what's the bad news? Because you got twenty four hours 2109 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:54,120 Speaker 2: to live? What's the worst news? Oh? I meant to 2110 01:51:54,160 --> 01:51:57,000 Speaker 2: call you yesterday. No one likes hearing good news and 2111 01:51:57,080 --> 01:52:01,760 Speaker 2: bad news. So even for Shadoor, yes, it's good news 2112 01:52:01,840 --> 01:52:03,439 Speaker 2: that the kid got drafted, even though he had to 2113 01:52:03,520 --> 01:52:06,599 Speaker 2: wait and teams. The team that drafted him passed him 2114 01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:11,120 Speaker 2: over six times, but he also lost out on about 2115 01:52:11,160 --> 01:52:14,840 Speaker 2: thirteen million dollars. See if schdor Sanders had been taken 2116 01:52:15,479 --> 01:52:18,160 Speaker 2: in the first round with say the twenty first pick, 2117 01:52:18,240 --> 01:52:22,000 Speaker 2: as many predicted, even though Pittsburgh had their eyes on 2118 01:52:22,520 --> 01:52:26,840 Speaker 2: the defensive player Harmon for a long time. He would 2119 01:52:26,840 --> 01:52:29,719 Speaker 2: have gotten a rookie contract with about eighteen million dollars. Instead, 2120 01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:32,760 Speaker 2: you take it in the fifth room around he'll get 2121 01:52:33,400 --> 01:52:35,479 Speaker 2: He'll get a four year deal that's worth about five million. 2122 01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:37,080 Speaker 2: Nothing to sneeze at. But I think he made like 2123 01:52:37,120 --> 01:52:40,320 Speaker 2: six million of Colorado. And again, I don't care what 2124 01:52:40,439 --> 01:52:43,760 Speaker 2: anybody says. If the team that took you passed you 2125 01:52:43,960 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 2: over six times before they actually decided to take you, 2126 01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:48,920 Speaker 2: I'm not saying you dwell on it. There's an old saying. 2127 01:52:48,920 --> 01:52:51,479 Speaker 2: You can look back, but don't stare. But you know 2128 01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:56,799 Speaker 2: it's the old Heydor. Sorry, we passed on you six times, 2129 01:52:58,320 --> 01:53:02,360 Speaker 2: along everybody else. But we want you now though. Really 2130 01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:10,240 Speaker 2: all right, h quinn Ewers you if you thought Shador 2131 01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:13,880 Speaker 2: Sanders had a painful fall in the draft, well, ladies 2132 01:53:13,920 --> 01:53:16,360 Speaker 2: and gentlemen, we give you Quinn yours, the former Texas 2133 01:53:16,479 --> 01:53:20,080 Speaker 2: quarterback who should have probably could have maybe should have 2134 01:53:20,120 --> 01:53:22,720 Speaker 2: stayed in college one more year. He was projected to 2135 01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:25,040 Speaker 2: be a mid round pick, but that even didn't happen. 2136 01:53:25,920 --> 01:53:30,400 Speaker 2: He sat on his couch and I don't know what 2137 01:53:30,479 --> 01:53:33,400 Speaker 2: he did for three straight days, But finally the Dolphins 2138 01:53:33,439 --> 01:53:38,800 Speaker 2: did select him in the seventh round with the two 2139 01:53:38,880 --> 01:53:42,240 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty first pick. Now, look of all the 2140 01:53:42,320 --> 01:53:44,519 Speaker 2: human beings, who's ever strapped down a helmet in their 2141 01:53:44,560 --> 01:53:48,080 Speaker 2: life and shoulder pads and a jockstrap? And it ate easy. 2142 01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:49,519 Speaker 2: I don't care what love you play that I only 2143 01:53:49,560 --> 01:53:53,920 Speaker 2: played in high school. It's hard. So for whatever quinn 2144 01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:56,120 Speaker 2: Ewers did, he's had a ninety nine point nine percent 2145 01:53:56,120 --> 01:53:58,120 Speaker 2: of people who whoever put on a pair of pads. 2146 01:53:59,200 --> 01:54:00,920 Speaker 2: But it's got a piss off a little bit. For 2147 01:54:00,960 --> 01:54:02,680 Speaker 2: the rest of his life, clinn Ewers is going to 2148 01:54:02,760 --> 01:54:05,840 Speaker 2: know that he was drafted behind two kickers and a punter. 2149 01:54:06,880 --> 01:54:10,320 Speaker 2: Two kickers at a punter were drafted before quinn Ewers 2150 01:54:10,360 --> 01:54:13,240 Speaker 2: went off the board. Remember it wasn't that long ago. 2151 01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:14,920 Speaker 2: I was reporting on the show that he was offered 2152 01:54:14,920 --> 01:54:16,800 Speaker 2: a million dollars to skip his senior year in high 2153 01:54:16,800 --> 01:54:19,680 Speaker 2: school to go to Ohio State. Didn't work out, turned out. 2154 01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:22,000 Speaker 2: I think there was a pervisa in the nil contract 2155 01:54:22,080 --> 01:54:23,720 Speaker 2: that he had to start and he didn't. But he 2156 01:54:23,800 --> 01:54:26,800 Speaker 2: ended up in Texas and acquitted himself pretty good. I 2157 01:54:26,840 --> 01:54:29,560 Speaker 2: would say Quinn Ewers accomplished quite a bit more of 2158 01:54:29,600 --> 01:54:33,560 Speaker 2: Texas and Shudorf Sanders did at Colorado, although Shoot Door 2159 01:54:33,640 --> 01:54:37,000 Speaker 2: Center's numbers were good. Everything's relative again, everything, you know, 2160 01:54:37,120 --> 01:54:38,960 Speaker 2: every you get. You know, we're like the six degrees 2161 01:54:39,000 --> 01:54:40,760 Speaker 2: of Shodoor Sanders. It's just going to wah, it's going 2162 01:54:40,800 --> 01:54:44,400 Speaker 2: to be uh, you know, it's it's what, it's going 2163 01:54:44,480 --> 01:54:47,160 Speaker 2: to be, all right. But the good news is for 2164 01:54:47,240 --> 01:54:51,440 Speaker 2: Quinn Eures always heading into a quarterback friendly system. You know, 2165 01:54:51,760 --> 01:54:54,400 Speaker 2: he's behind Tua. He's going to have to beat out 2166 01:54:54,560 --> 01:54:56,440 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson, which I do not think he will do 2167 01:54:56,640 --> 01:54:59,760 Speaker 2: if he wants to win the backup job again. Hewers 2168 01:54:59,840 --> 01:55:04,160 Speaker 2: was the thirteenth quarterback taken behind two kickers, a punter, 2169 01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:09,560 Speaker 2: two FCS quarterbacks, and one of the quarterbacks, Tommy Malott 2170 01:55:09,560 --> 01:55:12,240 Speaker 2: has stud out of Montana State probably won't even play quarterback. 2171 01:55:14,400 --> 01:55:18,560 Speaker 2: Justin Tucker, oh boy, he had after being just the 2172 01:55:18,640 --> 01:55:23,160 Speaker 2: most reliable legendary kicker in the NFL for years. The 2173 01:55:23,320 --> 01:55:27,200 Speaker 2: Ravens kind of put Justin Tucker unnoticed by drafting a 2174 01:55:27,280 --> 01:55:32,160 Speaker 2: kicker for the first time in Baltimore Ravens history. They 2175 01:55:32,320 --> 01:55:35,880 Speaker 2: drafted the guy my good buddy Arnie Spaniard is probably 2176 01:55:36,640 --> 01:55:39,200 Speaker 2: familiar with because he went to Arizona. His name is 2177 01:55:39,760 --> 01:55:43,680 Speaker 2: Tyler Loop. Now, I am not going to even for 2178 01:55:44,000 --> 01:55:46,840 Speaker 2: half a second pretend to tell you that I know 2179 01:55:46,960 --> 01:55:53,080 Speaker 2: who the hell Tyler Loop is, all right, but I 2180 01:55:53,160 --> 01:55:57,040 Speaker 2: do know this. Tucker is coming off the worst season 2181 01:55:57,080 --> 01:56:02,000 Speaker 2: of his career, and he's also facing multiple allegations of 2182 01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:06,360 Speaker 2: sexual conduct along the lines of what Deshaun Watson faced. 2183 01:56:07,560 --> 01:56:11,320 Speaker 2: Look anyway, a slice it. Tucker's had a pretty damn 2184 01:56:11,360 --> 01:56:14,400 Speaker 2: good thirteen years in Baltimore, pretty memorable thirteen years. I 2185 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:16,760 Speaker 2: remember a Monday night game in Detroit. My god, he 2186 01:56:18,160 --> 01:56:20,400 Speaker 2: kicked like a sixty three yarder to beat the line. 2187 01:56:20,440 --> 01:56:23,000 Speaker 2: He made so many clutch kicks, but nothing less. It 2188 01:56:23,080 --> 01:56:25,520 Speaker 2: came to an end. I think it's coming to an end. Hello, 2189 01:56:25,720 --> 01:56:27,840 Speaker 2: Tyler Loop. I have no idea who Tyler Loup is, 2190 01:56:27,880 --> 01:56:31,640 Speaker 2: but you're following a legend. How about I have dual 2191 01:56:31,720 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 2: Carter all right now? For whatever reason, I would have 2192 01:56:35,080 --> 01:56:39,240 Speaker 2: thought he wore eleven at Penn State, Michael Parkson's wore 2193 01:56:39,240 --> 01:56:41,920 Speaker 2: eleven at Penn State. Michael Parsons continued to wearing eleven 2194 01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:45,840 Speaker 2: with the Cowboys, where he's done very well. And I 2195 01:56:45,880 --> 01:56:48,480 Speaker 2: would have thought, I mean, dual Carter, it's just a stut. 2196 01:56:48,560 --> 01:56:50,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I knew he was gonna go, you know, 2197 01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:53,920 Speaker 2: very high. I knew he was going to the New 2198 01:56:54,000 --> 01:56:57,160 Speaker 2: York Giants. It was the worst kept secret. But he 2199 01:56:57,240 --> 01:57:00,440 Speaker 2: has to wear number fifty six. That number is hired, 2200 01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:02,720 Speaker 2: you know, kind of like Shdor Sander's number. Remember this 2201 01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:05,760 Speaker 2: is the six degrees of George Sanders tonight, and that 2202 01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:10,360 Speaker 2: number belonged to the legendary Lawrence Taylor, who maybe defined 2203 01:57:11,040 --> 01:57:13,839 Speaker 2: defense in the National Football League going back six decades. 2204 01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:17,440 Speaker 2: There's not a quarterback whoever lined up over center when 2205 01:57:17,440 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 2: they played the New York Giants. He say's Joe Montana. 2206 01:57:20,640 --> 01:57:22,360 Speaker 2: Who The first thing they want to know is where 2207 01:57:22,400 --> 01:57:24,960 Speaker 2: the hell is Lawrence Taylor on the field. Well, Lawrence 2208 01:57:25,000 --> 01:57:28,120 Speaker 2: Taylor ain't having it. Abdua. Carter says, can I wear 2209 01:57:28,440 --> 01:57:30,840 Speaker 2: number fifty six? And Lawrence Taylor says, not up in here. 2210 01:57:31,520 --> 01:57:33,720 Speaker 2: He will not be letting Carter wear it. Says, get 2211 01:57:33,760 --> 01:57:37,160 Speaker 2: another number, end of quote. I don't care if it's 2212 01:57:37,200 --> 01:57:40,760 Speaker 2: double O zero to make it famous. Well, Carter needs 2213 01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:45,360 Speaker 2: to maybe see if Warren Moon can go to bat 2214 01:57:45,360 --> 01:57:47,880 Speaker 2: for him because Warren mood is allowing cam Ward to 2215 01:57:47,920 --> 01:57:53,480 Speaker 2: wear number one, right, I would say the Bengals Charger Sanson. 2216 01:57:53,560 --> 01:57:57,240 Speaker 2: Eagles had the Wars drafts just off the top of it. Okay, 2217 01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,960 Speaker 2: the Bengals got a raw talent, Jamar Stewart, but they 2218 01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:03,400 Speaker 2: didn't bother to try to fill many other defensive needs 2219 01:58:03,440 --> 01:58:06,080 Speaker 2: like corners, safety, defensive tackle. That's why you're able to 2220 01:58:06,120 --> 01:58:08,440 Speaker 2: give grades the next day. Why they would not address 2221 01:58:08,560 --> 01:58:13,560 Speaker 2: those needs, I don't know. Okay, by the way, the Eagles, 2222 01:58:13,880 --> 01:58:17,720 Speaker 2: I take that back, I take that back. Howie Roseman 2223 01:58:17,840 --> 01:58:19,880 Speaker 2: worked his magic early in the draft. I don't know 2224 01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:23,160 Speaker 2: how he gets Jehat Campbell, who's a stud. He gets 2225 01:58:23,160 --> 01:58:25,360 Speaker 2: all these Georgia guys. The truth of the matter is 2226 01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:28,480 Speaker 2: is that Jihat Campbell probably would have been a top 2227 01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:31,000 Speaker 2: ten pick if it hadn't been for injuries. But bet 2228 01:58:31,080 --> 01:58:33,880 Speaker 2: against Hollie Roseman at your own risk, because the guy 2229 01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:37,840 Speaker 2: just does magic year after year after year. And so 2230 01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:40,360 Speaker 2: you got to give the Eagles a lot of credit. 2231 01:58:42,160 --> 01:58:46,400 Speaker 2: The Chargers, meh. The Saints. Kelvin Banks Junior is a 2232 01:58:46,440 --> 01:58:49,960 Speaker 2: good pick, but then what came after that, Well, we've 2233 01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:52,840 Speaker 2: already talked about that. So look, here's the beauty of this. 2234 01:58:53,440 --> 01:58:56,040 Speaker 2: All these teams have the opportunity to prove us wrong. 2235 01:58:57,120 --> 01:58:59,680 Speaker 2: Maybe they will, maybe they won't.

He's with ECI say hello 2253 01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:56,880 Speaker 2: to Jeff Dawson. Jeff, how are you, buddy? Appreciate you 2254 01:59:56,960 --> 01:59:58,040 Speaker 2: getting up early as always. 2255 01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:02,840 Speaker 16: Oh, good morning, Bernie. Coffee hot here back east. We 2256 02:00:02,960 --> 02:00:06,600 Speaker 16: got about three inches of rain yesterday, sawn Noah's ark. 2257 02:00:06,760 --> 02:00:09,240 Speaker 16: But draft is over and we're ready. 2258 02:00:10,200 --> 02:00:12,120 Speaker 2: I want to start there. We had a pretty lively 2259 02:00:12,320 --> 02:00:16,440 Speaker 2: discussion about three hours ago having to do with Shudor Sanders. 2260 02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:20,960 Speaker 2: I would like to ask you to respond to mil 2261 02:00:21,360 --> 02:00:27,920 Speaker 2: Kuiper's assertion that Dion did it again. Shudor Sanders will 2262 02:00:28,080 --> 02:00:32,080 Speaker 2: in fact make multiple teams regret not taking him. Where 2263 02:00:32,120 --> 02:00:34,520 Speaker 2: are you weigh in on the hull Shudor Sanders saga? 2264 02:00:36,320 --> 02:00:39,120 Speaker 16: Well, I think the writing was on the wall with 2265 02:00:39,320 --> 02:00:42,640 Speaker 16: about seven to ten days to go before the draft, 2266 02:00:43,320 --> 02:00:46,960 Speaker 16: and I think a lot of people tuned it out, 2267 02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:51,440 Speaker 16: meaning he did not do well in the interview process. 2268 02:00:51,640 --> 02:00:55,360 Speaker 16: I guess a little arrogant was to say it lightly, 2269 02:00:55,960 --> 02:00:59,720 Speaker 16: so some teams didn't even have them on the board. 2270 02:01:00,160 --> 02:01:04,040 Speaker 16: Only a handful of teams, Bernie that actually were in 2271 02:01:04,400 --> 02:01:07,640 Speaker 16: the Sanders sweep stakes, and I think two of them 2272 02:01:07,840 --> 02:01:11,880 Speaker 16: just thought that they were bidden against themselves. So has 2273 02:01:11,960 --> 02:01:17,400 Speaker 16: a lot of talent, But this year's quarterback class was 2274 02:01:17,520 --> 02:01:20,720 Speaker 16: not that great compared to last year and what everyone's 2275 02:01:20,800 --> 02:01:25,560 Speaker 16: expected this year next year. Excuse me, So will teams 2276 02:01:25,640 --> 02:01:28,200 Speaker 16: regret it on term? Bernie? 2277 02:01:28,280 --> 02:01:28,920 Speaker 12: I don't think so. 2278 02:01:29,440 --> 02:01:33,880 Speaker 16: I think the fact his skill set plus Dion the 2279 02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:37,880 Speaker 16: circus of you know, I think he's right where he 2280 02:01:38,080 --> 02:01:41,440 Speaker 16: belongs with the crowded room. He has an opportunity now 2281 02:01:41,640 --> 02:01:45,640 Speaker 16: to prove himself what he's worked. And I'm not calling 2282 02:01:45,720 --> 02:01:49,760 Speaker 16: him the next Bernie Cosner or Brian Site, but we'll 2283 02:01:49,800 --> 02:01:52,920 Speaker 16: be talking a lot about Sanders and his progress all year. 2284 02:01:53,840 --> 02:01:56,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, we certainly will. I'm just not sure if the 2285 02:01:57,000 --> 02:01:59,880 Speaker 2: skill set that he has as someone who covered four 2286 02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:02,520 Speaker 2: team draft for the Lions, I'm not sure if it 2287 02:02:02,640 --> 02:02:07,480 Speaker 2: translates that he can prove me wrong. But I have 2288 02:02:07,600 --> 02:02:10,240 Speaker 2: some question marks. Again, he can prove me wrong, but 2289 02:02:10,320 --> 02:02:13,880 Speaker 2: we shall see. Also, we discuss Travis Hunter. I believe 2290 02:02:13,960 --> 02:02:16,200 Speaker 2: Travis Henter should go both ways. I think he should 2291 02:02:16,240 --> 02:02:19,640 Speaker 2: be a starter on defense and then find some packages 2292 02:02:19,720 --> 02:02:24,560 Speaker 2: for him on offense. You know, maybe sixteen twenty snaps 2293 02:02:24,600 --> 02:02:27,600 Speaker 2: a game. The thinking is, if you're in the fourth quarter, Jeff, 2294 02:02:28,200 --> 02:02:30,120 Speaker 2: and you're in the red zone or you're driving to 2295 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:32,640 Speaker 2: try to score you might want Travis Hunter on the 2296 02:02:32,640 --> 02:02:35,120 Speaker 2: field as a wide receiver. He might make a play 2297 02:02:35,200 --> 02:02:37,720 Speaker 2: for you, as he did in Colorado. On the other hand, 2298 02:02:38,000 --> 02:02:39,920 Speaker 2: if you are holding a lead and it's late in 2299 02:02:39,960 --> 02:02:42,000 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter and the other team is in the 2300 02:02:42,040 --> 02:02:44,080 Speaker 2: red zone, etc. You're gonna want Travis Hunterer on the 2301 02:02:44,120 --> 02:02:46,880 Speaker 2: field locking down one of their receivers. Your thoughts on 2302 02:02:47,120 --> 02:02:49,560 Speaker 2: whether or not you think Jacksonville will employ him on 2303 02:02:49,640 --> 02:02:50,600 Speaker 2: both sides of the ball. 2304 02:02:51,760 --> 02:02:57,760 Speaker 16: Well, they stripped the offense. Ingram is gone, Kirk is gone. 2305 02:02:58,280 --> 02:03:00,400 Speaker 16: They kind of want to move off of have as 2306 02:03:00,440 --> 02:03:06,400 Speaker 16: etn So I think the Tarrott or for drafting him 2307 02:03:06,600 --> 02:03:09,120 Speaker 16: was to say, hey, don't you worry. You see where 2308 02:03:09,240 --> 02:03:12,680 Speaker 16: our offenses. Well, you're going to play plenty of offense, 2309 02:03:12,960 --> 02:03:16,560 Speaker 16: and yes, we're going to give you opportunities on defense. 2310 02:03:16,920 --> 02:03:20,240 Speaker 16: I like your thought process there, or Burnie very much. 2311 02:03:21,640 --> 02:03:25,200 Speaker 16: I think offense, the hard part is how many snaps 2312 02:03:25,280 --> 02:03:27,720 Speaker 16: a game? I mean, how fresh can you be If 2313 02:03:27,760 --> 02:03:32,480 Speaker 16: he's playing both sides full time, I'd say late third, 2314 02:03:32,520 --> 02:03:35,160 Speaker 16: early fourth quarter, he's going to be one tired man. 2315 02:03:35,320 --> 02:03:37,960 Speaker 16: But I like the thought process here. We're going to 2316 02:03:38,080 --> 02:03:42,839 Speaker 16: use your sixty five percent on offense. Thirty five on defense, 2317 02:03:43,280 --> 02:03:47,120 Speaker 16: or you know, maybe move him in on third downs 2318 02:03:48,320 --> 02:03:52,760 Speaker 16: or red zones. So whatever keeps him happy, whatever keeps 2319 02:03:52,800 --> 02:03:56,120 Speaker 16: the Jaguars movement. But I'm excited to see him, especially 2320 02:03:56,640 --> 02:03:59,320 Speaker 16: offensively on the Jaguars this year. 2321 02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:04,400 Speaker 2: One of the larger issues is the logistical issue. The 2322 02:04:04,560 --> 02:04:07,760 Speaker 2: defensive coordinators each week will install a new game plan 2323 02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:11,160 Speaker 2: with different schemes and personnel groupings, and there's a lot 2324 02:04:11,160 --> 02:04:13,800 Speaker 2: of film study and a lot of practice time implementing 2325 02:04:14,600 --> 02:04:17,360 Speaker 2: those schemes, and you just can't show up when you 2326 02:04:17,440 --> 02:04:19,120 Speaker 2: feel like it. I mean, this is a it's like 2327 02:04:19,200 --> 02:04:23,040 Speaker 2: two full time jobs. So we'll see. We'll see how 2328 02:04:23,200 --> 02:04:26,360 Speaker 2: they navigate through that. Jeff, I want to talk about 2329 02:04:26,360 --> 02:04:30,560 Speaker 2: the Patriots because look, ever since the former coach who 2330 02:04:30,640 --> 02:04:35,720 Speaker 2: won all those Super Bowls with Tom Brady left the Patriots, 2331 02:04:35,840 --> 02:04:40,120 Speaker 2: I still think are in the public eye now. I 2332 02:04:40,320 --> 02:04:42,760 Speaker 2: am of the belief the Patriots had a pretty damn 2333 02:04:42,880 --> 02:04:47,040 Speaker 2: good draft. Will Campbell at LSU. You talked about him 2334 02:04:47,240 --> 02:04:50,080 Speaker 2: weeks ago, him or Membu was going to be the guy, 2335 02:04:50,280 --> 02:04:53,920 Speaker 2: and there's no question he steps in and has a 2336 02:04:53,960 --> 02:04:57,280 Speaker 2: long career. I believe. I love the Treevion Henderson pick 2337 02:04:57,840 --> 02:05:00,120 Speaker 2: I love the Kyle Williams pick the wide receiver to 2338 02:05:00,280 --> 02:05:04,480 Speaker 2: Washington State, and then from there they grab some defensive guys. 2339 02:05:05,120 --> 02:05:08,800 Speaker 2: It feels like Rabel has his fingerprints all over this draft. 2340 02:05:09,080 --> 02:05:11,560 Speaker 2: How do you grade the Patriots draft and can they 2341 02:05:11,680 --> 02:05:15,520 Speaker 2: make noise in a division? I wouldn't call it wide open, 2342 02:05:16,320 --> 02:05:19,080 Speaker 2: but I think someone's right there to challenge Buffalo and 2343 02:05:19,240 --> 02:05:20,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's going to be Miami and 2344 02:05:20,440 --> 02:05:21,640 Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to be the Jets. 2345 02:05:23,400 --> 02:05:27,880 Speaker 16: Well, we are very excited. I'm looking at the draft. 2346 02:05:28,080 --> 02:05:33,959 Speaker 16: I was locked in all three days, excited for Vrabel, 2347 02:05:34,240 --> 02:05:38,480 Speaker 16: excited for Wolf, and I really wanted to see the 2348 02:05:38,600 --> 02:05:40,400 Speaker 16: comparison between last year. 2349 02:05:40,720 --> 02:05:44,160 Speaker 9: Wolf was there last year obviously with girod Mayo. 2350 02:05:44,800 --> 02:05:49,760 Speaker 16: Now Vrabel with his team, and the difference between last 2351 02:05:49,840 --> 02:05:54,440 Speaker 16: year and this year was just eye opening. They had 2352 02:05:54,520 --> 02:05:59,600 Speaker 16: a plan, they stuck to it. They're sitting at four. 2353 02:06:00,720 --> 02:06:03,920 Speaker 16: No one wanted to move up. They fell in love 2354 02:06:04,000 --> 02:06:07,800 Speaker 16: with Will Campbell. They did extensive research. They went back 2355 02:06:07,880 --> 02:06:12,960 Speaker 16: down to LSU late last week. Vrabel and Will have 2356 02:06:13,160 --> 02:06:17,080 Speaker 16: a bond. That was their guy. But after that, it 2357 02:06:17,200 --> 02:06:21,040 Speaker 16: gets really interested in Bernie is at the second round, 2358 02:06:21,160 --> 02:06:25,160 Speaker 16: the thirty eighth pick. A video got leaked out late 2359 02:06:25,280 --> 02:06:29,680 Speaker 16: last week with the Chargers and them back and forth 2360 02:06:29,800 --> 02:06:34,600 Speaker 16: on the phone and eventually making that trade which the 2361 02:06:34,800 --> 02:06:38,280 Speaker 16: Chargers got Lad McConkey and the Patriots fell in love 2362 02:06:38,400 --> 02:06:41,120 Speaker 16: with Polk and Baker. They were in that same spot 2363 02:06:41,200 --> 02:06:44,880 Speaker 16: this year, Bernie, and if you saw the draft, they 2364 02:06:45,080 --> 02:06:48,600 Speaker 16: waited to the last handful of seconds to make their pick. 2365 02:06:48,720 --> 02:06:52,000 Speaker 16: They were fielding a lot of opportunities for potential trades. 2366 02:06:53,840 --> 02:06:57,120 Speaker 16: I think it was someone wanted to move up for Henderson, 2367 02:06:57,560 --> 02:07:00,240 Speaker 16: so they were looking at the BC edge rusher. They 2368 02:07:00,320 --> 02:07:03,200 Speaker 16: had a couple of wide receivers on the board, Noel 2369 02:07:03,480 --> 02:07:08,640 Speaker 16: and Williams. Rabel went to Ohio State from under Stevens 2370 02:07:08,840 --> 02:07:12,720 Speaker 16: I think led the NFL and fumbles both. They took 2371 02:07:12,800 --> 02:07:16,280 Speaker 16: their guy with Henderson, they come back with Kyle Williams 2372 02:07:17,080 --> 02:07:20,720 Speaker 16: and then they go back on some defense with Wilson 2373 02:07:20,840 --> 02:07:25,720 Speaker 16: and they get a center. Big, big draft grated, very 2374 02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:30,360 Speaker 16: very high. Now again their kids. The Patriots have a 2375 02:07:30,560 --> 02:07:34,920 Speaker 16: lot of holes to Phil Bernie and they need to 2376 02:07:35,480 --> 02:07:40,760 Speaker 16: revamp the whole team. So we're excited. I think I 2377 02:07:40,840 --> 02:07:42,840 Speaker 16: don't want to be a Homer, but I drew him 2378 02:07:42,880 --> 02:07:45,520 Speaker 16: in a minus Bernie, fair. 2379 02:07:45,400 --> 02:07:49,040 Speaker 2: Enough, And look, I think it's actually good for football 2380 02:07:49,760 --> 02:07:53,280 Speaker 2: if somehow the Patriots get back into the mix, and 2381 02:07:53,800 --> 02:07:57,280 Speaker 2: it'd be a quantum leap, right, But it's happened before. 2382 02:07:57,440 --> 02:07:59,320 Speaker 2: I mean, Cam Newton took a one in fifteen team 2383 02:07:59,400 --> 02:08:01,640 Speaker 2: year before got to the Soper Bowl next year. So 2384 02:08:02,240 --> 02:08:04,120 Speaker 2: am I predictat you? No, go ahead? 2385 02:08:05,000 --> 02:08:09,440 Speaker 16: It's it's an AFC East that is dominated by obviously 2386 02:08:09,600 --> 02:08:12,360 Speaker 16: the Bills, and then there's a lot of question marks 2387 02:08:12,400 --> 02:08:16,920 Speaker 16: and Jets new coach Justin Fields Miami, we know t 2388 02:08:18,320 --> 02:08:20,800 Speaker 16: and they income the Patriots. Are the Patriots going to 2389 02:08:20,840 --> 02:08:24,120 Speaker 16: the playoffs? Probably not. But we said the same thing 2390 02:08:24,240 --> 02:08:27,600 Speaker 16: last year about Washington, who go from the bottom to 2391 02:08:27,720 --> 02:08:31,560 Speaker 16: the top. So you know, a lot of variables, a 2392 02:08:31,680 --> 02:08:34,760 Speaker 16: lot of moving parts here, but this team will look 2393 02:08:35,040 --> 02:08:38,760 Speaker 16: a lot different than they did last year. Their offensive 2394 02:08:38,840 --> 02:08:42,800 Speaker 16: line got better a year older. For May really excited 2395 02:08:42,880 --> 02:08:46,240 Speaker 16: to see what Brabel does. You know, seven to eight, 2396 02:08:47,600 --> 02:08:51,760 Speaker 16: maybe nine wins, Bernie, But I think very competitive is 2397 02:08:51,840 --> 02:08:54,920 Speaker 16: what we're looking at looking for. And as you said, 2398 02:08:55,440 --> 02:08:58,240 Speaker 16: six times Super Bowl champs, it'd be nice to be 2399 02:08:58,400 --> 02:08:59,600 Speaker 16: relevant again, Bernie. 2400 02:09:00,600 --> 02:09:02,640 Speaker 2: Let's wrap it up with the NBA playoffs, and I 2401 02:09:02,720 --> 02:09:05,920 Speaker 2: want to focus on the Eastern Conference. Earlier with Mark Mnina, 2402 02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:09,320 Speaker 2: we focused on the Western Conference. And the question is 2403 02:09:09,400 --> 02:09:12,200 Speaker 2: can Boston repeat? I mean, Sunday night, you got the magic. 2404 02:09:12,240 --> 02:09:14,600 Speaker 2: They're looking to go up three games to one, but 2405 02:09:14,760 --> 02:09:18,120 Speaker 2: Boston's banged up. You got three starters, Datum, Brown and 2406 02:09:18,160 --> 02:09:22,520 Speaker 2: Holiday are all banged up, suffering some sort of ailment. 2407 02:09:23,280 --> 02:09:25,880 Speaker 2: And if the Celtics want to repeat, you want to 2408 02:09:25,920 --> 02:09:29,720 Speaker 2: get this series over with because Cleveland looks to be 2409 02:09:29,880 --> 02:09:34,280 Speaker 2: the real deal. Your thoughts on the Celtics quest to repeat, 2410 02:09:34,320 --> 02:09:36,920 Speaker 2: that they have it in them, and how much of 2411 02:09:37,000 --> 02:09:39,440 Speaker 2: a threat you believe the Cavaliers are. 2412 02:09:41,520 --> 02:09:45,840 Speaker 16: I think that Cavaliers are definitely a threat. They hold 2413 02:09:45,920 --> 02:09:49,080 Speaker 16: the home court advantage. They have beaten the Celtics this 2414 02:09:49,280 --> 02:09:55,720 Speaker 16: year at Boston Garden leading up to the playoffs. Jalen 2415 02:09:55,760 --> 02:09:58,720 Speaker 16: Brown to me was not one hundred and I tried 2416 02:09:58,800 --> 02:10:02,320 Speaker 16: to tell all the Green nation here, we're got to 2417 02:10:02,400 --> 02:10:05,920 Speaker 16: pump the brakes here. We are not healthy. Last year 2418 02:10:06,120 --> 02:10:09,480 Speaker 16: was the perfect storm, Bernie. Every team that we faced, 2419 02:10:09,800 --> 02:10:11,080 Speaker 16: their stars were out. 2420 02:10:11,640 --> 02:10:12,560 Speaker 7: We were healthy. 2421 02:10:12,800 --> 02:10:16,080 Speaker 16: We cruised right through and of course then fac the 2422 02:10:16,200 --> 02:10:18,920 Speaker 16: number five seed with the Dallas Mavericks. This year a 2423 02:10:19,000 --> 02:10:23,480 Speaker 16: little different Magic has played well. Uh you know they've 2424 02:10:23,600 --> 02:10:28,080 Speaker 16: They've shown flashes. They're just too young right there. Obviously 2425 02:10:28,240 --> 02:10:31,960 Speaker 16: looking to win today, get up three to one. Obviously 2426 02:10:31,960 --> 02:10:34,200 Speaker 16: you don't want to even the series and come back 2427 02:10:34,240 --> 02:10:37,560 Speaker 16: to Boston the best of three after that, I'd expect 2428 02:10:37,600 --> 02:10:40,800 Speaker 16: the Celtics to find a way to win today. We're 2429 02:10:40,840 --> 02:10:44,840 Speaker 16: assuming it's the next Bernie. But Pistons have played very, 2430 02:10:45,040 --> 02:10:48,440 Speaker 16: very well in that series as well. But the Calves 2431 02:10:48,520 --> 02:10:53,600 Speaker 16: have looked the part. Expect them to sweep the Heat 2432 02:10:54,160 --> 02:10:57,480 Speaker 16: and then Paces. But we are assuming the Paces. But 2433 02:10:57,600 --> 02:11:00,800 Speaker 16: you get Giannis and well, but we've been waiting for 2434 02:11:00,960 --> 02:11:05,800 Speaker 16: a while. It's setting up for a Cabs Boston that series. 2435 02:11:05,880 --> 02:11:09,840 Speaker 16: Bernie will go six or seven. Neither team is going 2436 02:11:09,920 --> 02:11:12,000 Speaker 16: to run either one of them out of the building. 2437 02:11:13,040 --> 02:11:15,360 Speaker 2: Should be interesting to see. I know the Lakers are 2438 02:11:15,400 --> 02:11:18,120 Speaker 2: looking tired already, but I know the NBA would love 2439 02:11:18,200 --> 02:11:21,120 Speaker 2: dearly to see a Celtics Lakers finals, although it seems 2440 02:11:21,120 --> 02:11:23,800 Speaker 2: to like a pipe dream at this point. Jeff, great stuff, 2441 02:11:24,120 --> 02:11:27,000 Speaker 2: as always is we get toward the NBA Finals, Boston's 2442 02:11:27,000 --> 02:11:29,000 Speaker 2: around certainly want to get you back on to get 2443 02:11:29,040 --> 02:11:31,680 Speaker 2: your thoughts on one other things. So appreciate you as always, Jeff. 2444 02:11:32,440 --> 02:11:35,200 Speaker 16: Bernie, I'll be here for you whatever you need. 2445 02:11:35,320 --> 02:11:38,200 Speaker 2: Have a great, great Sunday, Thanks Palace.

And as I mentioned earlier in 2478 02:13:24,800 --> 02:13:26,640 Speaker 2: the show, I was not going to get through tonight 2479 02:13:26,720 --> 02:13:33,400 Speaker 2: without referencing this crazy transfer portal. Not just in men's basketball, 2480 02:13:33,440 --> 02:13:37,320 Speaker 2: of which I believe closed last week two fety nine 2481 02:13:38,360 --> 02:13:41,920 Speaker 2: players entered the portal. The football portal, though, is the 2482 02:13:42,000 --> 02:13:44,760 Speaker 2: one that really is making the headlines, and I want 2483 02:13:44,800 --> 02:13:47,360 Speaker 2: to revisit his story. We started a couple of weeks ago, 2484 02:13:47,520 --> 02:13:50,760 Speaker 2: three weeks ago, and for what it's worth, don't we 2485 02:13:50,800 --> 02:13:54,000 Speaker 2: don't have the final numbers on the Football Transfer Portal 2486 02:13:54,080 --> 02:13:58,240 Speaker 2: as of yet, but to get some perspective, the first 2487 02:13:58,320 --> 02:14:02,360 Speaker 2: year there were like fifteen hundred and sixty one players transferred. 2488 02:14:02,400 --> 02:14:05,600 Speaker 2: Then that's morphed into the years at twenty three and 2489 02:14:05,680 --> 02:14:10,879 Speaker 2: twenty four, a total of eleven thousand players eleven thousand 2490 02:14:11,480 --> 02:14:14,480 Speaker 2: over to your span evident to portal. But if there 2491 02:14:14,560 --> 02:14:18,760 Speaker 2: was any transfer story that got the raised the eyebrows 2492 02:14:18,800 --> 02:14:23,400 Speaker 2: of coaches or administrators or agents or anybody who's a 2493 02:14:23,560 --> 02:14:28,200 Speaker 2: fan or observer of college athletics, If there's any transfer 2494 02:14:28,320 --> 02:14:32,000 Speaker 2: story that got people really buzzing the past few weeks, 2495 02:14:32,640 --> 02:14:37,000 Speaker 2: it was the crazy situation surrounding Tennessee and their former 2496 02:14:37,080 --> 02:14:42,880 Speaker 2: quarterback Nico aama Liava. Now, the rumors were that he 2497 02:14:43,000 --> 02:14:46,600 Speaker 2: was holding out for a better deal. All right, he 2498 02:14:46,760 --> 02:14:49,960 Speaker 2: was getting two point four million from Tennessee. It was 2499 02:14:50,040 --> 02:14:52,680 Speaker 2: reported allegedly he wanted four million. The kid from Duke 2500 02:14:52,760 --> 02:14:55,840 Speaker 2: got four million, and Carson Beck got ten million. And 2501 02:14:56,360 --> 02:14:58,320 Speaker 2: then of course they denied it, said, no, this isn't 2502 02:14:58,360 --> 02:15:00,640 Speaker 2: a holdout. I was just worried about the the offense, 2503 02:15:00,800 --> 02:15:06,800 Speaker 2: and okay, I don't care what your story is. Nico 2504 02:15:06,920 --> 02:15:10,040 Speaker 2: was a highly recruited quarterback coming out of Southern California. 2505 02:15:10,080 --> 02:15:13,920 Speaker 2: He's Peers and he's returned home to Southern California, and 2506 02:15:13,960 --> 02:15:17,720 Speaker 2: we'll play for Ucla because remember him and his family 2507 02:15:17,760 --> 02:15:20,080 Speaker 2: said they were worried about the offense, So sure, why 2508 02:15:20,120 --> 02:15:24,440 Speaker 2: not leave Tennessee a prolific offensive team and go to Ucla. 2509 02:15:24,720 --> 02:15:26,720 Speaker 2: I believe they ranked one hundred and eighteenth in offense 2510 02:15:26,840 --> 02:15:30,280 Speaker 2: last year. Maybe he can get them to move up 2511 02:15:30,320 --> 02:15:33,640 Speaker 2: the ranks. I don't know how much he's making. I've 2512 02:15:33,760 --> 02:15:37,880 Speaker 2: heard allegedly it's a less than a million dollars. So 2513 02:15:38,080 --> 02:15:39,880 Speaker 2: for maybe it really wasn't about the money, because he 2514 02:15:39,960 --> 02:15:44,440 Speaker 2: left two point four million to get a million. It 2515 02:15:44,480 --> 02:15:47,720 Speaker 2: would have been nice to in the perfect world, he 2516 02:15:47,760 --> 02:15:50,560 Speaker 2: stays in Tennessee, has a good year, and he enters 2517 02:15:50,600 --> 02:15:52,680 Speaker 2: the draft and he's only twenty years old and the 2518 02:15:52,760 --> 02:15:57,680 Speaker 2: world is oyster. He's got NFL potential. Okay, what was 2519 02:15:57,760 --> 02:16:03,080 Speaker 2: bothersim about the ordeal was just a couple of days 2520 02:16:03,120 --> 02:16:06,520 Speaker 2: before the Tennessee Vall spring game. The tension had risen 2521 02:16:06,600 --> 02:16:09,280 Speaker 2: to such a such a level, and it had been 2522 02:16:09,320 --> 02:16:14,320 Speaker 2: simmering that he just up and left and left the 2523 02:16:14,360 --> 02:16:18,720 Speaker 2: team in the lurch and I think the general consensus 2524 02:16:18,960 --> 02:16:23,959 Speaker 2: was that iam Aliava just outplayed his leverage. He overplayed 2525 02:16:24,000 --> 02:16:26,880 Speaker 2: his hand instead of returning to Knoxville on what was 2526 02:16:27,080 --> 02:16:29,680 Speaker 2: a pretty lucrative contract, I think two point four million. 2527 02:16:29,720 --> 02:16:31,920 Speaker 2: So now he'll get closer to home and it looks 2528 02:16:32,000 --> 02:16:36,119 Speaker 2: like he'll he'll play for UCLA. And by the way, 2529 02:16:36,240 --> 02:16:42,080 Speaker 2: that's that whole decision kind of set a domino effect 2530 02:16:42,160 --> 02:16:46,760 Speaker 2: happening because on top of Yamiliava and his younger brother, 2531 02:16:46,920 --> 02:16:52,120 Speaker 2: Madden Yamiljava via the Arkansas Razorbacks committing to UCLA, a 2532 02:16:52,160 --> 02:16:54,880 Speaker 2: bunch of other quarterbacks changed scenery. And I'm about to 2533 02:16:55,000 --> 02:16:59,640 Speaker 2: get to my point. He see, here's what's funny. Urban 2534 02:16:59,720 --> 02:17:01,800 Speaker 2: Meyer waited in a couple of weeks ago and said, oh, 2535 02:17:01,879 --> 02:17:05,880 Speaker 2: Tennessee screwed. They had themselves a good quarterback and now 2536 02:17:06,160 --> 02:17:07,680 Speaker 2: they got nothing. They got a kid on the bench 2537 02:17:07,959 --> 02:17:11,200 Speaker 2: through six passes last year. As Lee Corso would say, 2538 02:17:11,360 --> 02:17:16,800 Speaker 2: not so fast. My friend enter Joey Aguilar. Joey Aguilar 2539 02:17:18,400 --> 02:17:23,000 Speaker 2: was matriculating at Appalachian State. He was a starter and 2540 02:17:23,160 --> 02:17:27,240 Speaker 2: and by the way, uh, the u c l A 2541 02:17:27,520 --> 02:17:31,360 Speaker 2: staff really liked him in terms of their Scotty report 2542 02:17:32,080 --> 02:17:34,600 Speaker 2: and for good reason. Now here's the beauty of it 2543 02:17:34,760 --> 02:17:37,240 Speaker 2: and why I referred to this as the circle of life. 2544 02:17:38,320 --> 02:17:43,640 Speaker 2: When Nico IAmA Liava entered the NCAA Transfer portal following 2545 02:17:43,720 --> 02:17:45,840 Speaker 2: this dispute over the nideal, a couple of weeks ago, 2546 02:17:47,120 --> 02:17:50,320 Speaker 2: folks were wondering who Tennessee would get to take a 2547 02:17:50,400 --> 02:17:53,440 Speaker 2: spot under center because he left some fairly big shoes 2548 02:17:53,480 --> 02:17:59,480 Speaker 2: to fill. Let's be honest, Well, the irony among all ironies. 2549 02:18:00,480 --> 02:18:03,800 Speaker 2: It turns out it happens to be the guy IAmA 2550 02:18:03,879 --> 02:18:07,040 Speaker 2: Liava forced out of UCLA when he announced his commitment 2551 02:18:07,080 --> 02:18:10,840 Speaker 2: to the Bruins a couple sundays ago because Joey Aguilar, 2552 02:18:11,600 --> 02:18:18,200 Speaker 2: who transferred from Appalachian State to UCLA once he found 2553 02:18:18,200 --> 02:18:22,080 Speaker 2: out that Nico was coming. Nico said, of course, my 2554 02:18:22,240 --> 02:18:24,400 Speaker 2: journey at ut has come to an end. Cool. This 2555 02:18:24,520 --> 02:18:27,880 Speaker 2: decision was incredibly difficult, truthfully, not something I expected to 2556 02:18:27,920 --> 02:18:30,360 Speaker 2: make this soon, but I trust God's timing. What does 2557 02:18:30,400 --> 02:18:32,440 Speaker 2: God's timing have to do with you blown out of 2558 02:18:32,480 --> 02:18:34,920 Speaker 2: there because you said you want a two point four 2559 02:18:35,000 --> 02:18:37,840 Speaker 2: million and they didn't give it to you. All right? 2560 02:18:38,040 --> 02:18:41,360 Speaker 2: Fair enough, Even though this chapter is ending, a new 2561 02:18:41,440 --> 02:18:43,920 Speaker 2: chapters began and I'm committed to UCLA. I frankly would 2562 02:18:43,920 --> 02:18:46,320 Speaker 2: like to use to see UCLA rise back through the 2563 02:18:46,360 --> 02:18:50,840 Speaker 2: football ranks. It's been a long time. Okay again, enter 2564 02:18:51,200 --> 02:18:55,959 Speaker 2: the aforementioned Joey Aguilar. He was a former three star 2565 02:18:56,080 --> 02:19:00,000 Speaker 2: recruit in the class of twenty twenty three who commit 2566 02:19:00,080 --> 02:19:03,400 Speaker 2: hit it to UCLA back in December. Was all set 2567 02:19:03,480 --> 02:19:06,040 Speaker 2: to battle for the starting quarterback job with the Bruins. 2568 02:19:06,280 --> 02:19:09,160 Speaker 2: Probably would have won the job after he transferred from 2569 02:19:09,160 --> 02:19:14,520 Speaker 2: Apple Aachian State, but following Niko's arrival, and by the way, 2570 02:19:14,640 --> 02:19:17,240 Speaker 2: Joey Aguilar is no slot cheater six foot three senior, 2571 02:19:17,600 --> 02:19:20,680 Speaker 2: he hit the portal again to find another school where 2572 02:19:20,720 --> 02:19:22,680 Speaker 2: he had to have a legit chance to start. Well, 2573 02:19:22,840 --> 02:19:27,040 Speaker 2: guess what that program just happens to be wait for it, 2574 02:19:27,520 --> 02:19:32,880 Speaker 2: Nico's former school, Tennessee. It's my understanding. Joey Aguilar has 2575 02:19:33,000 --> 02:19:37,560 Speaker 2: signed with the Valves. According to reports on ESPN and 2576 02:19:37,760 --> 02:19:41,920 Speaker 2: heading into the transfer portal, Joey Aguilar was the fourth 2577 02:19:42,040 --> 02:19:44,880 Speaker 2: best quarterback available in the transfer portable. According to on 2578 02:19:45,040 --> 02:19:51,240 Speaker 2: three quote, the QB trade is complete. Joey Aguilar plans 2579 02:19:51,320 --> 02:19:55,279 Speaker 2: to sign with Tennessee after transferring to UCLA from Appalachian 2580 02:19:55,360 --> 02:19:59,360 Speaker 2: State in the winter portal. As sources told ESPN, essentially, 2581 02:20:00,480 --> 02:20:04,760 Speaker 2: Joey Aguilar traded places with nico Iyamalaliava, who transferred from 2582 02:20:04,840 --> 02:20:08,320 Speaker 2: Tennessee to UCLA and the current portal. Nothing to see here, 2583 02:20:08,840 --> 02:20:16,600 Speaker 2: move along. This happened fast, and I if I'm being honest, 2584 02:20:17,600 --> 02:20:20,080 Speaker 2: I think Tennessee got themselves a hell of a quarterback. 2585 02:20:20,120 --> 02:20:23,400 Speaker 2: If you look at Aguilar's numbers in two seasons with 2586 02:20:23,520 --> 02:20:27,160 Speaker 2: Appalachian State, he threw for about sixty eight hundred yards, 2587 02:20:27,200 --> 02:20:31,880 Speaker 2: fifty six touchdowns, rushed for four fifty two and five scores. 2588 02:20:32,480 --> 02:20:36,600 Speaker 2: And his addition gives Josh Heipel, the former quarterback himself 2589 02:20:36,959 --> 02:20:40,760 Speaker 2: options along with the people erb Admyer was talking about. 2590 02:20:40,760 --> 02:20:42,840 Speaker 2: I think the kid's name is George McIntyre. He threw 2591 02:20:43,879 --> 02:20:45,800 Speaker 2: Oh no, Jake Merklinger, I think is a kid to 2592 02:20:45,840 --> 02:20:48,240 Speaker 2: through six passes and he got an incoming freshman. I 2593 02:20:48,320 --> 02:20:51,160 Speaker 2: think Joey Aguilar will start. And by the way, if 2594 02:20:51,200 --> 02:20:53,199 Speaker 2: you talk to people in the know in college football 2595 02:20:54,760 --> 02:20:57,080 Speaker 2: as a pure pastor, now, Aguilar is not the runner. 2596 02:20:57,240 --> 02:21:01,400 Speaker 2: Is iamailiavi is. He's more of a pocket. But they 2597 02:21:01,520 --> 02:21:04,600 Speaker 2: say there are people in camp who say they believe 2598 02:21:04,800 --> 02:21:09,600 Speaker 2: Akilar is actually an upgrade as a pure passer over 2599 02:21:09,720 --> 02:21:13,360 Speaker 2: Nico Iamaiava, who's more of a dual threat guy. All right, 2600 02:21:14,640 --> 02:21:17,200 Speaker 2: he threw for yama Aliava, threw for twenty six hundred 2601 02:21:17,240 --> 02:21:21,840 Speaker 2: nineteen touchdowns, rash for three fifty eight. Joey Aguilar threw 2602 02:21:21,879 --> 02:21:23,959 Speaker 2: for a lot more than that. This is again his story. 2603 02:21:24,640 --> 02:21:28,960 Speaker 2: We'll be watching and it's college football. Well, look, the 2604 02:21:29,040 --> 02:21:31,160 Speaker 2: future always says a way of arriving at a schedule. 2605 02:21:31,240 --> 02:21:34,800 Speaker 2: College football will be here before you know it. Well, 2606 02:21:34,879 --> 02:21:37,480 Speaker 2: as I say every week, we don't just cover the 2607 02:21:37,520 --> 02:21:43,280 Speaker 2: football that is spelled foot b A l L. We 2608 02:21:43,400 --> 02:21:49,840 Speaker 2: also cover the football spelled fut bul nationally and internationally. 2609 02:21:50,400 --> 02:21:53,160 Speaker 2: It's time Chris Purfetts World soccer. 2610 02:21:54,520 --> 02:22:05,039 Speaker 20: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drum. 2611 02:22:08,040 --> 02:22:08,440 Speaker 7: I am. 2612 02:22:10,400 --> 02:22:13,800 Speaker 1: It's all here in this report from the World of soccer. 2613 02:22:14,400 --> 02:22:18,600 Speaker 21: Major storylines going across Europe. Bernie in the world of soccer. 2614 02:22:19,120 --> 02:22:21,879 Speaker 21: As we wait for the semi finals of the UEFA 2615 02:22:22,000 --> 02:22:25,320 Speaker 21: Champions League, which start this week on Tuesday Arsenal and 2616 02:22:25,400 --> 02:22:28,720 Speaker 21: Paris Saint Jermaine, happening at three pm Eastern on CBS, 2617 02:22:29,040 --> 02:22:31,800 Speaker 21: we have to acknowledge what a treat this weekend has been, 2618 02:22:32,040 --> 02:22:35,840 Speaker 21: starting with l Classico in the Copa del Rey as 2619 02:22:35,959 --> 02:22:40,280 Speaker 21: Barcelona had to take Real Madrid through extra time, a 2620 02:22:40,720 --> 02:22:46,800 Speaker 21: tremendously shippy match, especially with how this started, where Real 2621 02:22:46,879 --> 02:22:51,520 Speaker 21: Madrid TV putting out a video this season attacking one 2622 02:22:51,560 --> 02:22:55,160 Speaker 21: of the officials that would be refereeing the Copa del 2623 02:22:55,240 --> 02:23:02,280 Speaker 21: Rey match, thirty nine year old Ricardo Burgos Bengos, who 2624 02:23:02,680 --> 02:23:06,920 Speaker 21: apparently the Madrid took umbrage with because of talking about 2625 02:23:06,959 --> 02:23:11,000 Speaker 21: the club's record when he referees the matches. Then before 2626 02:23:11,040 --> 02:23:12,640 Speaker 21: the end of the game, there were about three red 2627 02:23:12,720 --> 02:23:16,360 Speaker 21: cards handed out to Real Madrid, who went from a 2628 02:23:16,480 --> 02:23:19,320 Speaker 21: two to one lead in this game to tie it 2629 02:23:19,440 --> 02:23:22,600 Speaker 21: around the end of regulation as Ferron Torres scored the 2630 02:23:22,640 --> 02:23:26,840 Speaker 21: equalizer for Barcelona and then Jules Colnde managed to score 2631 02:23:26,959 --> 02:23:30,840 Speaker 21: the winner at the one hundred and sixteenth minute. Barcelona 2632 02:23:30,879 --> 02:23:33,120 Speaker 21: then held on and took home the Copa del Rey. 2633 02:23:33,800 --> 02:23:39,240 Speaker 21: Classico remains very very fun to watch and Barcelona and 2634 02:23:39,280 --> 02:23:41,720 Speaker 21: Real Madrid still trading blows as we come to the 2635 02:23:41,959 --> 02:23:44,920 Speaker 21: end of that season. Four points separating the two in 2636 02:23:45,000 --> 02:23:49,240 Speaker 21: La Liga play Napoli and Inter Milan TA Stey remained 2637 02:23:49,680 --> 02:23:53,720 Speaker 21: drawn at seventy one points apiece in the Siria table, 2638 02:23:53,959 --> 02:23:57,760 Speaker 21: as Italy looks to be finishing the season almost down 2639 02:23:57,800 --> 02:24:02,000 Speaker 21: to the wire and England could be officially officially done 2640 02:24:02,360 --> 02:24:05,600 Speaker 21: in the Premier League if Liverpool pit picks up just 2641 02:24:05,720 --> 02:24:10,680 Speaker 21: a single point against Tottenham here on Sunday morning. 2642 02:24:11,240 --> 02:24:12,720 Speaker 1: Of course, we've known this for a while. 2643 02:24:12,560 --> 02:24:14,320 Speaker 21: As we've talked about in the world of soccer, and 2644 02:24:14,360 --> 02:24:17,200 Speaker 21: I've said for probably a close to a month now 2645 02:24:17,600 --> 02:24:22,200 Speaker 21: that Liverpool's title is virtually theirs and that Arsenal, the 2646 02:24:22,280 --> 02:24:26,040 Speaker 21: club that is still laggedly chasing them, has no real 2647 02:24:26,120 --> 02:24:29,240 Speaker 21: shot to catch up with them. And indeed, on Wednesday 2648 02:24:29,320 --> 02:24:31,840 Speaker 21: a too to two draw against Crystal Palace, who. 2649 02:24:31,720 --> 02:24:34,119 Speaker 1: By the way, are going to the FA Cup Final. 2650 02:24:34,280 --> 02:24:40,000 Speaker 21: Crystal Palace has left Arsenal incapable of catching up. And 2651 02:24:40,120 --> 02:24:42,800 Speaker 21: to be honest, fine, they have the Champions League to 2652 02:24:42,840 --> 02:24:46,840 Speaker 21: play for. The title is Liverpool's. It's just a matter 2653 02:24:46,879 --> 02:24:50,000 Speaker 21: of formality at this point. Relegation is basically sewn up. 2654 02:24:50,040 --> 02:24:53,000 Speaker 21: So what is there really to talk about in England? Well, 2655 02:24:53,720 --> 02:24:58,680 Speaker 21: what about rexhum Bernie? The Hollywood story continues for the 2656 02:24:58,959 --> 02:25:03,200 Speaker 21: little else club taken into an interest of Ryan Reynold 2657 02:25:03,240 --> 02:25:07,080 Speaker 21: and Rob McIlhaney taking them from the fifth division National 2658 02:25:07,160 --> 02:25:11,880 Speaker 21: League to English League One and they will be headed 2659 02:25:12,000 --> 02:25:17,680 Speaker 21: up to the Championship. And the Championship is one step 2660 02:25:17,879 --> 02:25:22,000 Speaker 21: below the Premier League, which means that this is as 2661 02:25:22,040 --> 02:25:25,760 Speaker 21: about as big as you can get. Three promotions three 2662 02:25:25,920 --> 02:25:30,920 Speaker 21: years that is unheard of. It's almost unprecedented, it is. 2663 02:25:32,520 --> 02:25:35,119 Speaker 21: It's being described across there as a miracle. A three 2664 02:25:35,240 --> 02:25:39,200 Speaker 21: NIERL win over Charlton actually allowed Wrexham to move to 2665 02:25:39,400 --> 02:25:44,000 Speaker 21: second place here with just one match day to go 2666 02:25:44,320 --> 02:25:47,920 Speaker 21: and clinching second place. If they had fallen at all, 2667 02:25:48,040 --> 02:25:51,360 Speaker 21: they would have had to play in a promotion playoff. 2668 02:25:52,200 --> 02:25:55,560 Speaker 21: No club in English football has ever been promoted in 2669 02:25:55,840 --> 02:26:00,800 Speaker 21: three consecutive seasons until now. This is not been done 2670 02:26:00,879 --> 02:26:03,960 Speaker 21: before and they will move up to the EFL Championship 2671 02:26:04,280 --> 02:26:07,440 Speaker 21: here and this is where the real hard work is 2672 02:26:07,560 --> 02:26:11,800 Speaker 21: going to begin. Wrexham is celebrating like crazy and they should. 2673 02:26:12,440 --> 02:26:15,520 Speaker 21: This is unbelievable and there's going to be a day 2674 02:26:15,560 --> 02:26:18,080 Speaker 21: that will come where we'll have to start to talk 2675 02:26:18,160 --> 02:26:21,400 Speaker 21: about how much more difficult it is in the Championship 2676 02:26:21,560 --> 02:26:24,720 Speaker 21: with some tremendously great clubs who come up and down 2677 02:26:25,080 --> 02:26:28,360 Speaker 21: from the Premier League all the time in clubs in 2678 02:26:28,480 --> 02:26:31,520 Speaker 21: there by the way that also feature plenty of celebrities 2679 02:26:31,560 --> 02:26:34,320 Speaker 21: who have decided to throw their weight in following the 2680 02:26:34,360 --> 02:26:37,480 Speaker 21: Wrexham model and back some of these clubs out there, 2681 02:26:37,920 --> 02:26:41,320 Speaker 21: like for example, Burnley with JJ Watt as one of 2682 02:26:41,360 --> 02:26:44,200 Speaker 21: their celebrity heads, who is getting promoted to the Premiership 2683 02:26:44,320 --> 02:26:48,760 Speaker 21: along with a very big favorite in Leeds United, who 2684 02:26:48,800 --> 02:26:51,000 Speaker 21: happens to have a lot of American players on it. 2685 02:26:51,040 --> 02:26:53,280 Speaker 21: And I know a lot of my friends tend to 2686 02:26:53,400 --> 02:26:55,960 Speaker 21: keep up with Leeds United. Or what about a team 2687 02:26:56,040 --> 02:27:00,720 Speaker 21: that's joining Wrexham up to the Championship in Burmingham City 2688 02:27:00,840 --> 02:27:02,279 Speaker 21: one of their minority. 2689 02:27:01,879 --> 02:27:03,720 Speaker 1: Owners, Tom Brady. 2690 02:27:04,240 --> 02:27:06,160 Speaker 21: The difficult world work will begin. And I know I've 2691 02:27:06,160 --> 02:27:08,160 Speaker 21: already kind of like come in here and said, hey, 2692 02:27:08,240 --> 02:27:11,520 Speaker 21: the rocky roads ahead for Wrexham. But again, no other 2693 02:27:11,600 --> 02:27:13,640 Speaker 21: club has done what they have done. This will be 2694 02:27:13,680 --> 02:27:17,440 Speaker 21: a tremendous story for the FX series, a tremendous story 2695 02:27:17,640 --> 02:27:20,520 Speaker 21: for a club in Wales with a passionate, passionate fan 2696 02:27:20,680 --> 02:27:24,160 Speaker 21: base who's seen it come practically from the dead to 2697 02:27:24,760 --> 02:27:29,240 Speaker 21: the top flight of the English Football League and perchance 2698 02:27:29,400 --> 02:27:32,960 Speaker 21: on the doorstep of the Premier League. A return to 2699 02:27:33,040 --> 02:27:36,320 Speaker 21: glory if there has ever been one for Wrexham, and 2700 02:27:36,400 --> 02:27:38,400 Speaker 21: it should be celebrated far and wide. 2701 02:27:38,520 --> 02:27:40,400 Speaker 1: And yes, I do say a return to glory. 2702 02:27:40,520 --> 02:27:44,480 Speaker 21: Wrexham has had very ancient success in its past measured 2703 02:27:44,520 --> 02:27:47,800 Speaker 21: against the success of its time. This is a lesson 2704 02:27:47,879 --> 02:27:50,480 Speaker 21: in all sports, and it is especially true against soccer. 2705 02:27:50,720 --> 02:27:54,520 Speaker 21: Nothing ever truly dies. You're just waiting for its rebirth 2706 02:27:54,600 --> 02:27:57,480 Speaker 21: at any point, and we wait for better things to 2707 02:27:57,720 --> 02:28:00,240 Speaker 21: rise from the ashes, and we shall do that here 2708 02:28:00,280 --> 02:28:01,080 Speaker 21: on the world of soccer. 2709 02:28:01,160 --> 02:28:02,160 Speaker 1: Bernie, we bid you. 2710 02:28:02,280 --> 02:28:06,400 Speaker 21: Ado Champions League semi finals first legs are starting this week. 2711 02:28:06,560 --> 02:28:07,920 Speaker 21: That's a wonderful, wonderful time. 2712 02:28:10,600 --> 02:28:13,880 Speaker 2: Well, let me give this some perspective, because Rexham could 2713 02:28:13,920 --> 02:28:16,680 Speaker 2: actually make the Premier League, the English Premier League, and 2714 02:28:16,800 --> 02:28:19,160 Speaker 2: even the most casual observer knows what an English Premier 2715 02:28:19,280 --> 02:28:23,960 Speaker 2: League is. And for Wrexham to do that, they need 2716 02:28:24,040 --> 02:28:26,280 Speaker 2: to win their championship or finish in the top two 2717 02:28:26,360 --> 02:28:30,080 Speaker 2: during the automatic promotion. I'll give us some perspective. If 2718 02:28:30,120 --> 02:28:32,720 Speaker 2: Rexham made it to the English Premier League next year, 2719 02:28:33,200 --> 02:28:35,480 Speaker 2: that would be like the Cleveland Browns with Shudur Center 2720 02:28:35,480 --> 02:28:38,440 Speaker 2: as a quarterback making him to the Super Bowl next year. 2721 02:28:39,040 --> 02:28:43,320 Speaker 2: That's how unprecedented this is for Ryan Reynolds and Wrexham 2722 02:28:43,920 --> 02:28:46,520 Speaker 2: is doing. They've got a significant challenge ahead of them, 2723 02:28:46,560 --> 02:28:49,560 Speaker 2: but look what they've done to this point. Just saying, 2724 02:28:49,640 --> 02:28:52,600 Speaker 2: coming up, we wrap up the show and let's take 2725 02:28:52,600 --> 02:28:55,480 Speaker 2: a little walk down memory lane. All right, it is 2726 02:28:55,600 --> 02:28:59,400 Speaker 2: not the worst thing that Shudor Sanders was drafted in 2727 02:28:59,480 --> 02:29:01,040 Speaker 2: the fifth roe. As a matter of fact, if we 2728 02:29:01,120 --> 02:29:03,800 Speaker 2: live throughout history, there have been a lot of quarterbacks 2729 02:29:04,520 --> 02:29:08,080 Speaker 2: names you will definitely recognize who drafted in the fifth 2730 02:29:08,160 --> 02:29:11,120 Speaker 2: round who went on to make a name for themselves. Well, 2731 02:29:12,560 --> 02:29:15,560 Speaker 2: I dated for the third time called shador Dion. Will 2732 02:29:15,560 --> 02:29:17,520 Speaker 2: Shudor be one of those? Will his name be out 2733 02:29:17,560 --> 02:29:20,959 Speaker 2: of the list? Well, I'll give you the list. Coming up, 2734 02:29:21,360 --> 02:29:23,080 Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddle.

Thanks so much so. Shador Sanders 2744 02:29:54,360 --> 02:29:56,240 Speaker 2: was drafted in the fifth round, one hundred and forty 2745 02:29:56,280 --> 02:29:57,000 Speaker 2: fourth overall. 2746 02:29:57,920 --> 02:30:00,320 Speaker 5: And you know, I I. 2747 02:30:03,400 --> 02:30:05,520 Speaker 2: I want to say that is that is not the 2748 02:30:05,600 --> 02:30:08,200 Speaker 2: worst thing.

There have been many quarterbacks over 2757 02:30:36,760 --> 02:30:41,160 Speaker 2: the years that have been drafted in the fifth round, 2758 02:30:42,160 --> 02:30:44,720 Speaker 2: and more than you think, more than you may realize, 2759 02:30:45,360 --> 02:30:48,240 Speaker 2: many of them actually went on to have quite you know, 2760 02:30:48,440 --> 02:30:51,400 Speaker 2: productive careers in the National Football League. And you can 2761 02:30:51,440 --> 02:30:53,800 Speaker 2: start by going back fifty years. I'm sure you remember 2762 02:30:53,879 --> 02:30:56,879 Speaker 2: Steve Grogan of the New England Patriots. He won seventy 2763 02:30:56,959 --> 02:31:00,720 Speaker 2: five games as a starter through for over twenty seven yards, 2764 02:31:01,440 --> 02:31:06,320 Speaker 2: and that's nothing to sneeze at. Mark Brunell coming out 2765 02:31:06,360 --> 02:31:11,720 Speaker 2: of Washington in the early nineties now very solid reporter 2766 02:31:11,720 --> 02:31:13,560 Speaker 2: who had one hundred and fifty starts in the NFL, 2767 02:31:14,560 --> 02:31:17,400 Speaker 2: won seventy eight games through for over thirty two thousand yards. 2768 02:31:17,959 --> 02:31:20,560 Speaker 2: Was one of the one of the better all time 2769 02:31:20,720 --> 02:31:23,959 Speaker 2: Green Bay Packer quarterbacks, of course, behind you know farv 2770 02:31:24,040 --> 02:31:30,640 Speaker 2: and behind Aran Rodgers, et cetera. But he was seventy 2771 02:31:30,640 --> 02:31:33,320 Speaker 2: eight and seventy three as a starter. Threugh fo one 2772 02:31:33,360 --> 02:31:36,160 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty four touchdowns. He threw for seventy six 2773 02:31:36,280 --> 02:31:39,760 Speaker 2: more touchdowns and interceptions then I'm sure you've seen Dan Arlofski. 2774 02:31:39,840 --> 02:31:43,080 Speaker 2: I covered the Dan Arlofski Lions. Arlawski signed with the 2775 02:31:43,200 --> 02:31:46,720 Speaker 2: Lions in seven. He unfortunately was part of that infamous 2776 02:31:47,879 --> 02:31:52,320 Speaker 2: Ole in sixteen team in two thousand and eight, the 2777 02:31:52,520 --> 02:31:55,119 Speaker 2: last year I covered the Lions in an official capacity. 2778 02:31:55,920 --> 02:31:58,280 Speaker 2: I know he's most remembered for running out of the 2779 02:31:58,360 --> 02:32:00,360 Speaker 2: end zone in the game against the Minnesota by Kingson. 2780 02:32:00,400 --> 02:32:03,400 Speaker 2: They lost twelve to ten that day, but dan Orlowski. 2781 02:32:03,440 --> 02:32:05,640 Speaker 2: He had twelve starts in the NFL. He got his 2782 02:32:05,879 --> 02:32:10,040 Speaker 2: chance and he was drafted in the fifth round. Now, 2783 02:32:10,040 --> 02:32:13,200 Speaker 2: I remember Troy Smith coming out of Ohio State. He 2784 02:32:13,320 --> 02:32:15,600 Speaker 2: was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens. And this is almost 2785 02:32:15,640 --> 02:32:19,119 Speaker 2: twenty years ago now, and he's like twenty oh seven, 2786 02:32:19,200 --> 02:32:23,400 Speaker 2: and the scouting of quarterbacks was a little different than 2787 02:32:23,480 --> 02:32:25,600 Speaker 2: Troy Smith's game actually would have translated a little bit 2788 02:32:25,640 --> 02:32:30,039 Speaker 2: more in this current climate. But look, he had eight starts. 2789 02:32:30,080 --> 02:32:32,360 Speaker 2: He was four and four. Never made a big name 2790 02:32:32,400 --> 02:32:35,080 Speaker 2: for himself with Baltimore. Another guy drafted a year later 2791 02:32:35,120 --> 02:32:38,119 Speaker 2: who's been on about sixteen teams in the NFL, Josh 2792 02:32:38,240 --> 02:32:41,440 Speaker 2: Johnson to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He hasn't had a 2793 02:32:41,440 --> 02:32:43,200 Speaker 2: lot of starts, but he's had a job in the 2794 02:32:43,360 --> 02:32:48,320 Speaker 2: NFL for over a decade. Another Green Bay Packer starter, 2795 02:32:49,320 --> 02:32:51,600 Speaker 2: well sort of. He had nine starts, but was given 2796 02:32:51,680 --> 02:32:55,840 Speaker 2: every opportunity. Brett Hunley out of UCLA obviously well before 2797 02:32:57,160 --> 02:33:01,520 Speaker 2: you know Jordan got there. Look at the bottom line 2798 02:33:01,640 --> 02:33:05,120 Speaker 2: is he had his chance. He had nine starts through 2799 02:33:05,160 --> 02:33:08,959 Speaker 2: for two thousand yards. Never was able to acquit himself 2800 02:33:09,040 --> 02:33:14,200 Speaker 2: well as a starter, consistent starter, Brett Hunley in Green Bay, 2801 02:33:14,440 --> 02:33:19,959 Speaker 2: but nonetheless had his chance. Nathan Peterman maybe more near 2802 02:33:20,000 --> 02:33:23,000 Speaker 2: the bottom of the barrel on this list. Twenty seventeen. 2803 02:33:23,120 --> 02:33:26,120 Speaker 2: You know, Buffalo Bills. He had five starts in the 2804 02:33:26,200 --> 02:33:29,360 Speaker 2: National Football League. He's bounced around quite a bit. He's 2805 02:33:29,480 --> 02:33:31,480 Speaker 2: probably on a lot of taxi squadron not even though 2806 02:33:31,480 --> 02:33:34,600 Speaker 2: they don't call it that anymore. Mike White signed with 2807 02:33:34,640 --> 02:33:38,959 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys in twenty eighteen and again only had 2808 02:33:39,040 --> 02:33:42,240 Speaker 2: seven starts in the NFL, but had his chance. Sam 2809 02:33:42,320 --> 02:33:49,000 Speaker 2: Howe coincidentally, this is crazy. You can't make this stuff up. Quincidentally, 2810 02:33:50,160 --> 02:33:53,680 Speaker 2: Sam Howe drafted in twenty twenty two by the Washington Commanders. 2811 02:33:53,760 --> 02:33:59,440 Speaker 2: He was just dealt to the Minnesota Vikings. I believe 2812 02:33:59,520 --> 02:34:03,520 Speaker 2: Saturday he's had eighteen starts in his career in the NFL. 2813 02:34:03,600 --> 02:34:06,640 Speaker 2: He's only five and thirteen I get that. Twenty two touchdowns, 2814 02:34:06,680 --> 02:34:09,480 Speaker 2: twenty three picks. He was drafted one hundred and forty 2815 02:34:09,520 --> 02:34:15,400 Speaker 2: fourth overall, just like Schudor Sanders, but he had his start. Finally, 2816 02:34:15,440 --> 02:34:19,560 Speaker 2: Spencer Ratler, who still has an opportunity to win the 2817 02:34:19,680 --> 02:34:23,240 Speaker 2: job with the Saints again this year. He's not lit 2818 02:34:23,320 --> 02:34:26,600 Speaker 2: it up he's owned six as a starter, four touchdowns, 2819 02:34:26,640 --> 02:34:32,400 Speaker 2: five interceptions. But look, you know, none of the quarterbacks 2820 02:34:32,560 --> 02:34:34,959 Speaker 2: picked in the fifth round had become regular starters over 2821 02:34:34,959 --> 02:34:38,440 Speaker 2: the last thirty years. Only one fifth round quarterbacks ever 2822 02:34:38,520 --> 02:34:40,959 Speaker 2: made the Hall of Fame. That was the legendary Bob 2823 02:34:41,040 --> 02:34:45,199 Speaker 2: Waterfield of the Rams. But those names I just gave you, Okay, 2824 02:34:46,640 --> 02:34:51,080 Speaker 2: they're familiar names if you follow football, So slice it 2825 02:34:51,160 --> 02:34:55,560 Speaker 2: this way. Shudor Sanders is now an NFL quarterback. If 2826 02:34:55,600 --> 02:34:59,000 Speaker 2: he follows the path of every one of these names 2827 02:34:59,400 --> 02:35:01,800 Speaker 2: I just met, he's going to get a minimum with 2828 02:35:01,920 --> 02:35:04,600 Speaker 2: six starts in the NFL and perhaps as many as 2829 02:35:04,640 --> 02:35:08,959 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty like Mark Brunell did. Now we've 2830 02:35:09,040 --> 02:35:13,800 Speaker 2: come full circle. Look, I talked about this at the 2831 02:35:13,840 --> 02:35:19,600 Speaker 2: top of the show. Why did Shidor Sanders slide? And 2832 02:35:19,840 --> 02:35:24,000 Speaker 2: I do not buy this narrative that you know, all 2833 02:35:24,040 --> 02:35:26,200 Speaker 2: the stuff coming out of people's mouths Friday night was 2834 02:35:26,280 --> 02:35:29,200 Speaker 2: really crazy. Oh how could thirty two teams pass on 2835 02:35:29,240 --> 02:35:32,520 Speaker 2: the thirty two teams didn't pass on them? Because of 2836 02:35:32,680 --> 02:35:36,160 Speaker 2: those thirty two teams, most likely a maximum of twelve, 2837 02:35:36,360 --> 02:35:41,119 Speaker 2: more likely eight, we're on the market for a quarterback. 2838 02:35:42,120 --> 02:35:44,440 Speaker 2: So really only eight to twelve teams passed on him 2839 02:35:44,760 --> 02:35:47,400 Speaker 2: all those rounds, including the team that drafted him Cleveland 2840 02:35:47,720 --> 02:35:52,080 Speaker 2: six times. So let's set the record straight. And when 2841 02:35:52,080 --> 02:35:55,080 Speaker 2: people started to say it's personal, it's personally, it became pal. 2842 02:35:55,360 --> 02:35:58,840 Speaker 2: I got news for you. It's always personal. I talked 2843 02:35:58,840 --> 02:36:01,760 Speaker 2: to you, I talked earlier. It linked about the evaluation 2844 02:36:02,000 --> 02:36:06,680 Speaker 2: process he did. Scouts and personnel directors and teams go 2845 02:36:06,800 --> 02:36:10,040 Speaker 2: through an exhausting process, or really get to know the 2846 02:36:10,200 --> 02:36:14,280 Speaker 2: gentleman that you don't door is going to get a 2847 02:36:14,320 --> 02:36:16,120 Speaker 2: four year deal for about five million bucks. It's not 2848 02:36:16,200 --> 02:36:18,760 Speaker 2: the steez AT's on first round money if he'd been 2849 02:36:18,840 --> 02:36:21,760 Speaker 2: drafted by Pittsburgh, a guy eighteen million dollars. But it's 2850 02:36:21,840 --> 02:36:26,160 Speaker 2: always personal. I told you I covered ten drafts on 2851 02:36:26,240 --> 02:36:28,640 Speaker 2: an official capacity for the Lions between ninety eight o eight, 2852 02:36:28,840 --> 02:36:33,160 Speaker 2: saw it all part of the Lions pre and post broadcasting. 2853 02:36:34,560 --> 02:36:36,040 Speaker 2: One year, I want to say it was two thousand 2854 02:36:36,080 --> 02:36:39,920 Speaker 2: and six, the Lions passed on a draft choice because, 2855 02:36:40,320 --> 02:36:42,640 Speaker 2: wait for it, you don't think it's personal. The report 2856 02:36:42,640 --> 02:36:48,080 Speaker 2: of the guy had bad breath, not joking. Something about 2857 02:36:48,160 --> 02:36:51,280 Speaker 2: that triggered one of the Lions' scouts. He didn't like 2858 02:36:51,360 --> 02:36:53,960 Speaker 2: it just thought it was bad attention to detail. It 2859 02:36:54,040 --> 02:36:58,160 Speaker 2: said something about the individual, and they did not draft 2860 02:36:58,200 --> 02:37:01,879 Speaker 2: that player. And that's just the way it is. So, look, 2861 02:37:02,520 --> 02:37:08,440 Speaker 2: Shador Sanders, He's going to have an opportunity, and you know, 2862 02:37:09,200 --> 02:37:13,880 Speaker 2: will he redeem himself or will other teams regret not 2863 02:37:14,040 --> 02:37:19,040 Speaker 2: taking Shudor Sanders. Like mel Kiper said, why did he slide? 2864 02:37:19,200 --> 02:37:21,880 Speaker 2: And I'll say it again for the third time. The 2865 02:37:21,959 --> 02:37:25,320 Speaker 2: reason he slid is because the number that had been 2866 02:37:25,400 --> 02:37:28,199 Speaker 2: banded about top five, two or three. The only people 2867 02:37:28,240 --> 02:37:31,080 Speaker 2: who seemed confident Sanders would be in that area were 2868 02:37:31,560 --> 02:37:34,760 Speaker 2: people named Sanders and his agents and his PR team 2869 02:37:34,800 --> 02:37:36,840 Speaker 2: and his posse. And then a few of the media 2870 02:37:36,920 --> 02:37:39,360 Speaker 2: members glombed on to this and it became the group 2871 02:37:39,440 --> 02:37:43,240 Speaker 2: think echo chamber, and that's what it becomes. Bothersome nobody 2872 02:37:43,320 --> 02:37:46,280 Speaker 2: I talked to in the NFL or people I know 2873 02:37:46,400 --> 02:37:49,400 Speaker 2: that would be qualified to comment. Had him graded as 2874 02:37:49,440 --> 02:37:52,040 Speaker 2: a first round choice, that's not the end of the world. 2875 02:37:52,280 --> 02:37:57,240 Speaker 2: And perhaps had Shudor Sanders taken advantage of opportunities at 2876 02:37:57,280 --> 02:38:01,360 Speaker 2: the Shrine Bowl and the NFL Combine to compete against 2877 02:38:01,400 --> 02:38:03,200 Speaker 2: others and improve, he was ready to lead an NFL 2878 02:38:03,280 --> 02:38:07,800 Speaker 2: team right away. But he opted against doing that instead 2879 02:38:07,800 --> 02:38:11,640 Speaker 2: of claiming, you know that, hey, look at my college tape, 2880 02:38:11,640 --> 02:38:14,280 Speaker 2: that's all NFL teams need to see. Well, turns out 2881 02:38:14,320 --> 02:38:18,360 Speaker 2: it wasn't. And I would say Shudor's approach to this 2882 02:38:18,480 --> 02:38:23,120 Speaker 2: whole pre daft process, pre draft process should be a 2883 02:38:23,280 --> 02:38:25,959 Speaker 2: cautionary tale and what not to do for future quarterbacks. 2884 02:38:26,240 --> 02:38:29,640 Speaker 2: Don't you simply declare yourself something you are and hope 2885 02:38:29,680 --> 02:38:32,840 Speaker 2: nobody checks you out on it. The reality here Sanders 2886 02:38:32,959 --> 02:38:36,440 Speaker 2: is a good football player. He's potentially a very quality prospect, 2887 02:38:36,520 --> 02:38:39,720 Speaker 2: someone who could eventually turn into a functional starter as 2888 02:38:39,760 --> 02:38:41,640 Speaker 2: long as Cleveland surrounds him with some talent and he 2889 02:38:41,760 --> 02:38:43,800 Speaker 2: wins the job. He's got a long way to go. 2890 02:38:44,080 --> 02:38:47,320 Speaker 2: We'll see. There are still questions about his arm, talent, 2891 02:38:47,440 --> 02:38:50,920 Speaker 2: his size, his pocket processing, and let's be honest, he's 2892 02:38:50,959 --> 02:38:53,880 Speaker 2: a good kid, but his overconfidence rubbs some people the 2893 02:38:53,920 --> 02:38:56,039 Speaker 2: wrong way. It's gonna do it for the Bernie Fraters Show. 2894 02:38:56,080 --> 02:38:57,720 Speaker 2: See you next week. Keep it locked up next to 2895 02:38:57,800 --> 02:38:59,760 Speaker 2: great Andy Ferman, Fox Sports Radio.
