1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: That'd be Friday, everybody, I'm Will Selva and usually a

2
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: good morning football headlines from NFL Network. The first round

3
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: of it twenty twenty one NFL Draft did not disappoint.

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: What exciting first night of action. We saw quarterbacks go one,

5
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: two and three for only the third time in the

6
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: common Draft Europe, the Jaguars selecting Clemson's Trevor Lawrence first

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: to overall, followed by the Jets picking by us Zach Wilson,

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: and that's when the fun really got started as the

9
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: Niners surprise many fans by selecting Trey Lands from North

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: Dakota State. San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked,

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: how does the pick affect the incumbent quarterback jim Jimmy

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 1: situation is, if he isn't here on Sunday, I would

13
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: be disappointed because Jimmy Jimmy is a quarterback who's played

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: one year and took us to a Super Bowl and

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: played at a very high level. He's had some fortunate injuries,

16
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:52,959
Speaker 1: but I believe in Jimmy as a person and he's

17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: shown what he can do on team. Now, we made

18
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: this move, so it's obvious what I hope and what

19
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: I believe in with this guy coming in, But it

20
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: would be a very tough situation if Jimmy's not on

21
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: our team. I think I want Jimmy to be here,

22
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: and I wanted this kid to be brought along. I

23
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: want to see how he does, and if it turns

24
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: into a competition, it turns into a competition. It records.

25
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: Seven straight offensive players were taken before the Panthers made

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: South Carolina defensive back jac Horne the first defender off

27
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,200
Speaker 1: the board. The Bears turned up the select Ohio state

28
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: quarterback Justin Fields at eleven, so justin what are you

29
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 1: going to bring the Chicago organization? I think the kind

30
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: of player of the Bears getting is a you know,

31
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 1: a versatile player, player that can you know, make plays

32
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: both with my arm and also with my legs, and

33
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: of course a smart player, a player that's going to

34
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: make smart decisions, and a player that you know that

35
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: wants to win, that's willing to do whatever you know

36
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: to win. So that's that's of course my number one job.

37
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: When big moments present themselves, I feel like, you know,

38
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: there's just another thing that kicks inside of me. But

39
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: just just just you know, I think capitalizing moments and

40
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: of course you know you playing well on B stages.

41
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: I think that's definitely one of my strengths for sure.

42
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: The Patriots made Alabama's Mac Jones the fifth quarterback selected

43
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: in the first round at selection number fifteen. As for

44
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: another quarterback who was in the news yesterday, Aaron Rodgers

45
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: is unhappy with the Packers as negotiations on a contract

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: extensions drag on. According to NFL networking satur Ian Rappaport,

Speaker 1: weeks with no deal done. Rogers remains unhappy, leaving room

49
