Speaker 1: mail bag because I have so many questions. So this

23
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: is going to be a mail bag question only at

25
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: your question answered here on the show. It's Friday, early

26
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: on in the morning. I was like, I was banging

27
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: out now. I just went for a walk ran into

28
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: a guy wearing a Bills hat here in Scottsdale. I

29
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: just I gave him therapy for about ten minutes. We

30
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: started bs and he just talked me through it. He's

31
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: a season ticket holder and he was at the game.

32
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: I was like, got it look cold. He's like, yeah,

33
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't even that bad. You know, you're from the Northeast.

34
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: You just unfazed by freezing weather. But he was. He

35
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,839
Speaker 1: was in a good spot relatively, uh speaking. I would say,

36
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: obviously likes his quarterback. Didn't love some play calls. But

37
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: it's tough. Man. When you're a fan of a team

38
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: that just is really good but gets really really close

39
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: and you have a star player, it's I could feel

40
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: it I could feel it on him, but he wore

41
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: that hat with pride. So it's the American pastime. When

42
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: whenever I see someone wearing some NFL gear or even

43
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: college gear, walk by another guy with Michigan just talk talkball,

44
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: it's it binds us. So I don't know why I

45
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: just went on that rant, but let's let's dive into

46

00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: I just saw on Schefter's feed that the Green Bay

52
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: Packers are interviewing Brandon Staley. Either the Packers, the Dolphins,

53
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: or the Rams. Someone's gonna end up with Brandon Staley

54
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 1: and their fan base is not gonna be happy. Before

55
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:15,920

00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift has a world tour I think in Asia

60
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: around the Super Bowl, So you know if the Chiefs

61
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: were to win, who knows what she would do. I

62
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: would imagine she would find a way to be at

63
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: that game. I think it's guaranteed she'd be at that game.

64
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: It's kind of the elephant in the room. Do does

65
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: the NFL want Taylor Swift or are they gonna like rig

66
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: it for the Chiefs? You might have to because they

Speaker 1: decided to give you a try. Love it great content. Anyways,

74
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: I'm a Bears fan. I think it's a lock. We

75
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: take Caleb with the first pick, but our second pick

76
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: in the first round. I could see us trading. Do

77
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: you think we'd get enough value to be worth it

78
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: if we keep who would we draft? Well, here'd be

79
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: my take, because I'm in agreement. You are going to

80
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: trade Justin Fields and draft Caleb Williams with the number

81
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: one overall pick. You have the ninth pick, right, That's

82
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: that's where you pick in the draft, unless that's I

83
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: haven't looked in a week or two, but that's in

84
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: my mind's the ninth pick. So if you have that

85
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: pick and several quarterbacks are going to be taken after Caleb,

86
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders are going to take a quarterback. The

87
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: New England Patriots, I think it's fair to say, are

88
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: more than likely, like ninety five going to take a quarterback.

89
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: So starting at pick four, a position player hasn't even

90
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: been taken. I also think it's fair to assume that

91
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: some other team will trade into the top ten in

92
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: draft a guy, So there is a chance that one

93
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: of the top five position players on your board, non quarterback,

94
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: you get as well. If I told any team going

95
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: into a draft before you even knew picks, you're gonna

96
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: get the number one quarterback or the quarterback you want.

97
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows, maybe they take Drake Mac the

98
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: quarterback you want. In a top five position player in

99
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: a good draft like this is a very talented draft. Receivers,

100
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: you guys could use one with Dj Moore. Defensive players, corners,

101
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: a tight end, I guess you got Comet, but why

102
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: couldn't you have two? I think that I would just

103
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: keep in take the sweetest player on my board, an

104
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: offensive defense, you know, a great defensive lineman, just a

105
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: great defensive player. I don't think you can ever go

106
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: wrong that way. Always love your show. I like this

107
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: guy already. Question statement would you take as a quarterback

108
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: in the draft? Who would you take after Caleb? I'm

109
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: a Patriot fan, and I see the back and forth

110
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: takes on May and Jayden Daniels constantly looks like May

111
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: is the second off the board, so likely not a

112
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: chance to get him, but if there was a choice,

113
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: I'm curious on your scouting perspective. Well, I had texted

114
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people about Drake May as the buzz

115
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: grow throughout the season, and there was a stretch of

116
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: like three games. The first one I watched was on

117
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: the CW. They might have been playing North Carolina State.

118
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: They lost. They had been undefeated at the time, and

119
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: I thought he did not look good. And then I

120
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,559
Speaker 1: watched him the next couple weeks and I just wasn't

121
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: that impressed. Now, part of evaluating a guy in the

122
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: draft is also factoring in physical skill set, intangibles, like

123
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: sometimes coaches are idiots in college. Right if you just

124
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: valued production and how sweet you were in college, Josh

125
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: Allen never would have been the seventh overall pick right now,

126
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: some guys, I think we overthink it, Lamar Jackson, even

127
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, right, But to me, I didn't watch enough

128
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: LSU football, And I'm biased because when I watched Jayden

129
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: Daniels at LSU and even watched him last year, I

130
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: was like, I don't see it. I don't see it.

131
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: But I'm not ignorant, naive, like stubborn enough to acknowledge

132
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: like I've done that with other quarterbacks in the past,

133
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: especially athletic guys. Jalen Hurts. Now, he didn't have a

134
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: great season this year, but he's still a solid player

135
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: relative to the rest of the league. So I think

136
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: you just got to I'm just gonna have to peek

137
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 1: out a little more of him. At LSU, I just

138
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: didn't watch him enough. Once they you know, lost a

139
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: couple of games, once they lost Old Miss and they

140
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: were out of it, I just kind of stopped paying

141
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: attention to him. And I know he was putting up

142
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: great stats, but I don't have a great like take

143
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: on him, though, I think it's pretty clear successful athletic

144
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: quarterbacks who can throw and run at a really high level,

145
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: which he did, you know, you gotta be very careful

146
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: to kind of bet against them. And he you know,

147
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: he was a better college player than say Jalen Hurts

148
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: right now, he was a late bloomer, right, he didn't

149
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: pop immediately. Transferring doesn't bother me anymore. Everyone transfers. But

150
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: one issue I had just he does look very thin.

151
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: He just looks thin, and I think it's very hard

152
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: to be a skinny guy. Now, I don't want to

153
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: see how tall he is, how much he weighs. I

154
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: do value like part of what Caleb brings the table.

155
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: He's a thick, thick physical presence. I mean, I would

156
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: guess he weighs two hundred twenty pounds. Drake May's big, right,

157
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: Think of some of the best quarterbacks in the NFL,

158
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: they're big, like even Mahomes. He's thick. So that would

159
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: be uh, that would be my original take that I

160
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 1: just didn't watch much LSU football. Do you expect Kellen

161
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: Moore to remain as the OC for the Chargers? As

162
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh as the new head coach. I do not.

163
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: I do not at all. I think Jim Harbaugh's proven

164
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh several years ago when it was rocky at Michigan. Again,

165
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: rocky at Michigan relative to the rest of the country

166
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: is going well. But for Michigan, when you're a top

167
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: five to six program, the standards are really high. Like

168
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: Kaylin Dubor is not allowed to go nine and three,

169
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: nine and three, Brian Kelly goes nine and three. Again,

170
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: they got problems right at Michigan. It's you're expected ten

171
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: wins minimum and beating Ohiose State, and he wasn't doing

172
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: it at the time. The ten wins. He was winning

173
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 1: double digit game sometimes, but he wasn't beating Ohio State.

174
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: And he went to the spread offense. Josh Gattis who

175
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: I think was the wide receiver coach at Alabama, and

176
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: he brought him and it just he didn't like it

177
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: and philosophically it wasn't his style. Like, let's face it,

178
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: whatever you do in any business, you have especially the

179
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: older you get right, like when you're young, you're kind

180
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: of shaping your views and learning and like taking what

181
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: different mentors or people you look up to and kind

182
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: of molding it in your own way to view football.

183
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: And once you hit a certain point, like you have

184
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: some non negotiables, but whenever you're failing, like you're like, Okay,

185
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: I got to look in the mirror. I gotta try

186
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 1: some different things. He tried it, and he hated it,

187
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: and he went immediately back. Sharon Moore, who's an offensive

188
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: line coach, like that's his style. Think about his offensive

189
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: coordinators that he's had success with. David Shaw Old School,

190
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: run the ball, physical football, Greg Roman, Old School, run

191
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: the ball, physical football, Sharon Moore, Old School, run the ball,

192
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: physical football. Kellen Moore's Boise State spread it out, trick plays.

193
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: It's not really Jim's cup of tea, so I would expect.

194
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: I don't know who his OC is gonna be, but

195
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: I would be floored if Kellen Moore's the OC. I

196
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: think he's gone. From a scout's point of view, Why

197
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: do you think the legend and mystique around guys like

198
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, JaMarcus Russell, and Trey Lance Bills so much

199
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: when it's clear it hasn't worked out, the player didn't

200
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: pick himself. Gms can't see the future and the coach,

201
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: I imagine needs to pivot as soon as possible to win.

202
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 1: It seems like once they leave, everyone suddenly gained some

203
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: common sense and stops talking about them. Is it just

204
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: the media gravy train, Well, the heype machine's real around

205
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: draft time, it just is. JaMarcus Russell and Josh rosen

206
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: played at big programs like JaMarcus Russell's playing at LSU.

207
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen was a three year starter at UCLA, so

208
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: they had tangible skills, right. JaMarcus was big. I mean,

209
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 1: he was a decent athlete, obviously enormous arm. Josh Rosen

210
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: six ' four, prototypical pocket quarterback, like a better arm

211
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: Jared Goff. I think that's what people thought. Trey Lance

212
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,559
Speaker 1: was a COVID fugazi. That's what that was. It was

213
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: a COVID fugazzi, and a team was desperate to draft

214
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: a guy. Now, one thing he was that the other guys,

215
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: you know, the other guy's had some question marks. Trey

216
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: Lance's character, intelligence, all that stuff was really good. So

217
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: sometimes you can overlook like, God, he played a small

218
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: school got he only is a one year starter. God,

219
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: who the hell did he play to? Like, oh, we

220
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: love all the intangibles. Well, ultimately, this is a production

221
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: based business and you got to be able to play. Now,

222
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 1: one thing pretty clear. Josh Rosen was traded in a

223
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: year because they could get Kyler Murray, who's obviously way

224
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: better Trey Lance. They kind of gave him a little

225
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: time and he's just not good enough. Like they get

226
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: Sam Donald in there, and they're like, clearly, Sam Donald's

227
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: way better player, and listen, we can argue till we're

228
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,959
Speaker 1: blue in the face. Sam Donald good or not, he's

229
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: better than Trey Lance. And they were immediately validated because

230
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: they traded him and he is a third string quarterback.

231
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: Think about that. Doe was drafted number three overall, traded

232
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: three first round picks. He didn't even make it to

233
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: the team year three, week one, and he's on another

234
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: team with a hat on. Technically dresses out because of

235
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: the new rules. But JaMarcus obviously just had you know,

236
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: he was lazy and had drug issues. So I think

237
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: history doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme. But every

238
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 1: human being like that. These are not businesses, right, These

239
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: are not widgets. These are people, and every person's wired

240
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: a little different. We're all one of one's so every

241
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: you know, Trey Lance just doesn't have any touch. Here's

242
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: the other problem with Trey Lance. He's an average athlete.

243
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: Like part of the reason they drafted him. They thought

244
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: he was this dual threat, like a Josh Allen. He's

245
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: not even close. Party's places faster, right, JaMarcus didn't even

246
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: try Rosen. It just turns out not good. We're drafting

247
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: human beings. This is very, very difficult. It's so easy

248
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: to say after the fact. Well, of course, look at

249
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: that draft. It was built as like this great quarterback draft.

250
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence Balky just said the other day, Yeah, we're

251
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: gonna have a heart to heart with him, basically like

252
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: we ain't paying in this offseason. Zach Wilson, all time bust.

253
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: Trey Lance didn't even make the team the third year,

254
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: Justin Fields is about to get traded, and Mac Jones

255
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: just isn't any good. So it's this is difficult. Then

256
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: think of all the people that drafted him, Right, some

257
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: of these teams were pretty good. I guess not really,

258
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: but beside the Niners, I'm a Bears fan and I'm

259
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: wondering what you think of Waldron Higher as an OC

260
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: do you think part of the reason they brought someone

261
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 1: like him, someone with the OC experience from the McVeigh tree,

262
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: is to be come the head coach if Eberflus fails.

263
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: I don't even think it's that deep. I just think

264
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: that this offense now is proven that it is quarterback friendly. Right,

265
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: It's easier to find offensive linemen in the zone running scheme.

266
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: Once you know the zone running scheme, It's easy to

267
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: call run plays when you know what you're doing. From Mi,

268
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: Kyle Lafleur, McVeigh, Mike McDaniels like it's inner, you know,

269
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: ingrained into their mind to call run plays and they're

270
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: natural at it. And then from there a lot of

271
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: the play action passes are viewed relative to NFL as

272
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: layup throws. Someone told me a while ago when they

273
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: interviewed Sala and he was bringing Lafleur, who ended up failing.

274
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: Part a big reason he failed was because Zach Wilson

275
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: was the logic behind it was, this is how they

276
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: sell the offense. We want to run the ball. Let's

277
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: say there are let's say there are let's pick a number,

278
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: sixty plays in a game. We have sixty offensive plays.

279
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: We want thirty to thirty five of those to be runs,

280
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: and we want twenty five of those to be passes.

281
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: And of those twenty five passes, hopefully ten to fifteen

282
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: are schemed through the play action, you know, out of

283
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: the half to start the game that are relatively easy,

284
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna need the quarterback to make especially

285
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: once we build up a team and more competitive. When

286
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: we're shitty, obviously this goes out the window. But like

287
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: once we get we have a team that can compete

288
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: for you know, double digit wins, we're only asking him

289
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: to make tennis throws like that. That's the logic behind

290
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: the offense. So it's very quarterback friendly. I just think

291
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: it's that simple. So whether you've got Caleb Williams or

292
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: whether you got me or you, it's just it works

293
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: like it works, and you can do so much stuff

294
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: off the offense, right, It's not just this is the

295
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: only thing we do. You can window dressing. Who'd I

296
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: hear to say this the other day? Who was talking

297
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: about this? I forget the defensive coach. Maybe a player

298
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: is you can run the same like Kyle oh Schleareth.

299
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: He's like I was doing one of Kyle's games, and

300
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: he literally ran the same like outside zone play with

301
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: nine different looks, which essentially means nine different ways to

302
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: block the point of attack. One times the tight end

303
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: gets them inside, one time the tight end gets them outside.

304
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: One time they double team the guy, one time use

305
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: check comes. The other time they motion the guy, the

306
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: other time they motion the other guy the other way.

307
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: It's the same play, but you have so much stuff

308
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 1: going all around and that and the player doesn't know

309
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: what side the blocking scheme's coming from. It throws you off.

310
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: So it's just a very, very I would say, quarterback

311
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: friendly thing. I hear Colin compare Josh Allen to Cam

312
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: Newton and Ben Alott and he predicts that allen style

313
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: of play probably won't age. Well, do you think that

314
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: Allen will be able to adapt when his athletics declines?

315
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: If not, I don't see when he will ever win

316
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl? Well, I would disagree like Josh Allen

317
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 1: to me, I know he hasn't won an MVP, but

318
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: over the course of his career, like he's a more

319
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: consistent player than Camp. But I think he plays more

320
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: like Cam with a touch of Ben than he does

321
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: Ben with a touch of Camp. Because a huge part

322
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: of his game isn't just running, its power running. Now,

323
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: Ben scrambled around and took a lot of hits, but

324
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,959
Speaker 1: they weren't running him on like quarterbacks sweeps unless I'm

325
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,679
Speaker 1: my memory's not serving, like not working anymore, Like Josh

326
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: is running over people and you just like I was

327
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: watching that game against Gantasy Chiefs, going he could not

328
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: do this for the next ten years. I don't care

329
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: how big and strong he is, so there's gonna have

330
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: to be some sort of balance. But I do think

331
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,879
Speaker 1: he's a pretty special player and right now for the

332
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: next I would say half decade, you got a chance

333
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: to win a Super Bowl, right And it's it's not

334
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,959
Speaker 1: on him anymore. Obviously he needs to play well in

335
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: these big spots, but I mean it's on the organization.

336
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: Better guys on defense, you know, there's obviously injury. Luck

337
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,359
Speaker 1: better guys, you know, guys on offense, a consistent running game.

338
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: Keep Joe Brady. Do you know what I find really

339
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 1: stupid about the NFL rules, Like I totally understand the

340
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: new rule and I totally understand these new rules on

341
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: coordinators interviewing minority candidates because guys that are quarterback coaches

342
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: slash coordinators are you know, fifty times more likely to

343
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: become head coaches. Of course they are. That's you know,

344
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: the highest paid guy on the team is the quarterback.

345
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: But when I have Joe Brady as my offensive coordinator,

346
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: I fire what's his name, Ken Dorsey during the middle

347
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: of season, and I have Joe Brady and I want

348
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: to keep him as my offensive coordinator. I'm not hiring

349
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 1: him from the outside. I'm not just running a search

350
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: where I'm already in tunnel vision. If I want to

351
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 1: keep Joe Brady, I shouldn't have to interview anyone else.

352
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 1: If that's who I want to hire. That is the

353
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: optics sometimes in society, like that's stupid. If I want

354
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: to hire Joe Brady, totally understand you're hiring outside like

355
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: the Raiders or the Bears or whoever. If you're just

356
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: doing an offensive coordinator the Eagles an offensive defensive coordinator search,

357
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: for sure. But if the guy's already on my fucking

358
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 1: staff and I want to elevate them, and I know

359
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: what am I doing. I've always thought that about, Like, listen,

360
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: when you're hiring these coordinators, totally understand it. If I

361
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: want Jim Harbaught, if I want Bill Belichick, if Mike

362
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: Tomlin were to get fired, I want to Mike Tomlin.

363
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: If I want Pete Carroll, I shouldn't have to fucking

364
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: interview anyone else. I remember when the Raiders got in

365
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 1: trouble for hiring John Gruden. It's like, what are we

366
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: doing here? Like there should be a level of tenure

367
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: if you've won a Super Bowl, Like, I don't need

368
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: to interview anyone else if that's the guy I want.

369
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 1: It happens in business all the time, right, Think about

370
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: in business, like I want this guy, I want that

371
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: number two from Apple to run my company. I don't

372
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: fucking waste time interviewing anyone else. I've already known. I've

373
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: been following her career or his career for a decade.

374
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: I've already known the person for seven years. They're who

375
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 1: I want. Can we just put some common sense in

376
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: all of this, Like that one if the guy's on

377
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: your staff and you want to keep them, because this

378
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: notion of like, well they didn't know about Mike tom Well, yeah,

379
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: they were doing an open search. Like that's not the

380
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 1: way these coordinator like Josh Allen wants Joe Brady as

381
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: he should love the golf betting content. I agree that

382
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 1: it's a great sport to bet on, but where I

383
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: get frustrated is the coverage. Unless you have money on

384
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: someone in contention, it feels impossible to see how your

385
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: player is performing. Do you think golf is leaving a

386
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: lot of potential on the table by not providing a

387
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: good way for betters to watch players they want to watch.

388
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: I love betting on the Ryder Cup, but even that

389
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: is hard. I think the hard part about golf relative

390
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: to let's just say baseball, basketball and football in those

391
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: other sports, or even tennis. Right the Australian Opens going

392
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: on right now, It's all going on in one place. Right.

393
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: If you're watching Roger Federer play Djokovic, they're playing on

394
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: the same court, Like you don't need to go back

395
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: and forth between course. The Chiefs and Bills game is

396
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 1: literally just the Chiefs and Bills game in golf, Like

397
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: there's one event and everyone's on a different hole. So

398
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: I do find it difficult now. I do think in

399
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: the future, could you find a way to get a

400
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: camera on every person. Here's the problem NBC is they

401
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: had to spend so much money for golf. The golf

402
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 1: doesn't make him that much money. If this was football,

403
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 1: they would find a way, they wouldn't have this problem.

404
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean. Right in golf, it's like,

405
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: are we really gonna go above and beyond with our

406
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: costs when we don't get the money back? Like I'm

407
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: in agreement with you. If I have money, and I

408
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: have a lot of money on several guys this weekend

409
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: at Torrey Pines, I want to be able to see,

410
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: like what's Ludviig doing right now? I got a top

411
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: twenty bed on him? Is he moving up the min

412
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: Wu lee? Where's he at? But it is difficult. I

413
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: do give them, not even the benefit of the doubt.

414
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 1: The reality of covering the sport and a cost standpoint,

415
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: is it really worth it? Like you gotta, I always

416
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: look at stuff from a business perspective, right, I saw,

417
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: like anyone my age or older, you grew up on

418
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: sports illustrated. Right, Sports illustrated was a huge, huge part

419
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: of your youth. I even remember, if I closed my eyes,

420
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: the library at Pioneer Elementary where I went to elementary school,

421
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: used to have sports illustrated for kids, and you would

422
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: go there and read Sports Illustrated for kids. This is

423
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: in the mid nineties. It was an enormous deal. I

424
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 1: remember the forty nine Ers won the Super Bowl and

425
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 1: I got one of those Sports Illustrated sweatshirts, the hoodless ones.

426
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: The reaction of Sports Illustrated going under from all the

427
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 1: journalists I thought was pretty laughable. Like, guys, Sports Illustrated

428
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: didn't die last week. It died like a decade ago.

429
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: Magazines are fucked. Is there any endus that is more

430
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: emotional about failed businesses than the media? Like what I understand,

431
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: if it just was humming and it just went under,

432
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 1: people would be like, what the hell, No one's reading

433
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: it anymore? Society changed. I am a great example of

434
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: someone that read Sports Illustrated his entire I haven't read

435
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: the thing in a decade plus. I don't even think

436
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 1: it existed. I actually saw it probably five or six

437
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 1: years ago. It was thinner than like three pieces of paper. Like,

438
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: why do you guys mad about the consumer? It's like

439
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: the corporate greed. No we are not. The consumer is

440
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: not reading, the consumer is not consuming. Follow the consumer,

441
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 1: Like where is that guy? I'll tell you where he is.

442
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: Podcasts youtubes blogs. I mean the world's changed. It's actually

443
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: whenever I see and I don't mean to go on

444
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: this ramp, but I gotta get off my chest because

445
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: I see it a lot on the X channel. The

446
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: complaining by it, this is so unfair. What's that to journalism?

447
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: It's actually, I'd argue, it's never been easier to be

448
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: a quote unquote media person. There's a million outlets, substack, YouTube.

449
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 1: Fucking start a podcast, but guy's a hard I don't

450
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: just fucking start it. Figure it out. I'll promise it.

451
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 1: It works. The writing for a magazine no longer works.

452
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: That's over. It's why defended Peacock, Like, guys, this is

453
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: where it's going. The Scorsese movie this eighteen hours long,

454
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 1: The Killer of Flower Moon. Wasn't that in theater like

455
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: a two weeks ago? I yesterday or earlier this week,

456
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: clicked on Apple TV. There it was cool for me,

457
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: like Broken Silver, Bring me the movie. I don't want

458
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: to go to the theater anymore. And I was someone

459
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: that loved movie theaters. I don't go to movie theaters anymore.

460
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 1: Why I got two eighty plus htvs and I paid

461
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars to smart tech my entire house, so

462
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,640
Speaker 1: I got speakers everywhere, I got all sorts of shit

463
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: in every room. So I this notion that like, oh

464
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: my god, I can't believe it went under. You can't.

465
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: What are we talking about is It's like I'm not

466
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: anti like feeling like you got a raw deal when

467
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: I've been fired, but like if you get fired because

468
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: the business is failing and it's been clear for a

469
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 1: long time, like I feel little to no sympathy for you.

470
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 1: I actually kind of call you an idiot. Like it's

471
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: pretty clear people that are having success in your industry

472
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: are not doing what you're doing. So if you want

473
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 1: to succeed financially, pivot. I'm like, no industry and I

474
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: have friends in the beer business, family, in the farming industry,

475
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: construction industry, Like most of my friends are not people

476
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: in the media, And I see this group complain over

477
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: and over about this, Like I bet everyone listening if

478
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: you get nostalgic about things in your industry and listen,

479
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 1: we all are humans. We don't necessarily want things to change.

480
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 1: But when it's pretty clear, you either change with the

481
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: times or you're gonna get laid off, fired or not

482
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:05,360
Speaker 1: survive business gonna go under. Welcome to capitalism. Hey, John,

483
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: used to listen to you back when y'all were on

484
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: ninety five to seven The Game a long time ago.

485
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: Just started listening again for the past month and have

486
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: always enjoyed your takes. Colin has said that the Raiders

487
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: likely will hire Cliff Kingsbury for offensive coordinator and was

488
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: wondering if you think that it would be a good fit.

489
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: I personally would like Zach Robinson. I'm also curious of

490
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: your take on what the Raiders should do with Josh Jacobs.

491
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: I think the running back situation is always tough, because

492
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: would I give Josh Jacobs like two years? You know

493
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: basically what. I forget the exact number of Jonathan Taylor's contract,

494
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: but I would just try to give him that contract, right.

495
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,479
Speaker 1: But if he thinks he's getting like fifty million dollars,

496
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: like hey man, hit the open market. He's a good player.

497
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: I like Josh Jacobs. He's also battled a lot of injuries.

498
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,679
Speaker 1: I have no clue what they're gonna do with offensive

499
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: coordinator none. I couldn't even begin to guess. I personally

500
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: would not hire Cliff Kingsbury like I would hire like

501
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: I said one of the what the Bears did, hire

502
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 1: someone from you know the crew McVeigh Shanahan. Now McDaniels like,

503
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: hire those guys. Listen, it's not guaranteed to work. The

504
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: Bears hired Getzy and everyone hated him immediately. I'm not

505
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: like some pro getsy guy, but I will defend him.

506
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: It's not like he was playing with Josh Allen or

507
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. He's playing with the guy that can't throw

508
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: from within the pocket. Kyle shanahan and John McVay might

509
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: have looked bad. As a longtime Giants fan, I've been

510
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: blessed to see two Super Bowls, but the Giants have

511
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: been a colossal failure since twenty eleven. It's a shame

512
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: and Mars should be embarrassed by his hiring, seemingly constantly meddling,

513
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: and the insistence on sticking with a below average quarterback

514
00:27:54,520 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 1: in Jones. His only qualification is being Wellington's son. Assume

515
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: you are the GM of the Giants. What are the

516
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: first few moves? Being a head coach is difficult and

517
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: people are gonna disagree, right Being a leader, people aren't

518
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: always gonna be, you know, believing you I saw a

519
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 1: clip today on YouTube the algorithm of when John Harball

520
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: was hired. Ed Reid was like, I hated half the

521
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: things he was saying. He used to piss me off.

522
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: He's like, at first, I did not think this was

523
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: gonna work. So you're gonna rub some people the wrong way, right,

524
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: There's no growth without a little confrontation. But like a

525
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: couple of years in, everyone hating Brian day Ball to

526
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: me is not an ideal situation. So I would look

527
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: long and hard, like what's this guy's deal? What's our

528
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: problem here? And I would think about hiring Bill Belichick.

529
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you tell me, if the New York Giants

530
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: hire Bill Belichick tomorrow, you guys wouldn't be excited. That's

531
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: what I do. Maybe demote Brian davi Well like tight

532
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: ends coach. That would be my first call, you know,

533
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: bring the whiz kid home. Do you think coaches get

534
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: a courtesy call to to let them know that they

535
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: aren't selected for the position, or do you see Chefter's

536
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: tweet and think to themselves, dude, what the fuck I

537
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: killed that interview? That's a good question. You know. I've

538
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: never been in a situation to interview for you know,

539
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: a GM or a head coaching job. Obviously it's a

540
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: very very very public position. If I had to take

541
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: an educated guess, I would say the owner and the

542
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: GM who's hiring a coach or vice versa, even the GM,

543
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: they know that this information is going to get out

544
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: really fast once they call, So I would guess that

545
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: before you call. Let's say I'm offering, let's pick a guy,

546
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: uh who just got hired Raheem Morse. Before I hire

547
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: Raheem Morse, I call three or four guys and tell

548
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: them they did not you know, the final if there

549
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: was a final two or a final four, I call

550
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: them and say they did not get the job before

551
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: I hire the guy. That that's the most logical way

552
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: to make sure that doesn't happen. Now, does that always

553
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: happen that way? Probably not. I bet there's a it's

554
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 1: one hundred percent happened where people find out they're in

555
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: the running for a job they didn't get the job

556
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: through Twitter. If Deebo Samuel doesn't end up playing Sunday,

557
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: how do you think Detroit's defense Mainly the linebackers stack

558
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: up against Christian McCaffrey and Kittle. I got a text

559
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: yesterday from a buddy who covers the Niners who was

560
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: at practice. He's like deebos plan. Obviously, Deebo practiced on Thursday,

561
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: and he was moving his shoulder around dancing before Debo's plan.

562
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: I feel like everyone rags on the secondary for a

563
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: good reason, but I feel like between the pass rush

564
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: and rattling purty, thinks can get evenly mashed. You hit quarterbacks,

565
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: whether it's Tom Brady, whether it's Joe Montana, or whether

566
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: it's Brock Purdy, like you got a chance. We saw

567
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: the Giants win two Super Bowls by peppering Tom Brady.

568
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,959
Speaker 1: If you can hit a quarterback, I don't care if

569
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: you're playing the best quarterback ever or Joe Schmoe, average

570
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 1: backup quarterback. You can beat anybody. You can beat anybody.

571
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: If you don't touch a quarterback. You can make average

572
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: guys look good, and good guys look great, and great

573
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: guys unstoppable. So it's football has always been pretty simple

574
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: that way. It's like, you hit the quarterback, you got

575
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: a chance, Now relentlessly hit him like one sack. You

576
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: get one sack and it feels big, and then you

577
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: don't pressure them the rest of the game, or are

578
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: you constantly in his ass you always mentioned Josh Allen's

579
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: name first, is so exhausting. Lamar is about to be

580
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: a two time MVP. Joe Burrow has made it to

581
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and has actually beat Mahomes in the playoffs.

582
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: Patrick is a two time champion, two time MVP. Josh

583
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: Allen has only made it to the divisional round of

584
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: the playoffs with no noteworthy accomplishments. Yeah, I mean, I sorry, Mahomes.

585
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: And if Lamar beats Mahomes Lamar, then Burrow's been injured.

586
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: Like listen, there's four guys that are clearly better than everybody,

587
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,480
Speaker 1: and there's one guy who's better even if Mahomes lose

588
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: a Sunday, like Mahomes the King. And then there's a

589
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: group of three guys I personally would take Josh Allen

590
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: over the other three, like football is not. This isn't

591
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: one on one basketball, Like Lamar's team is good, like

592
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 1: fucking fantastic. Obviously he is too, but let's face it,

593
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: he was not having some like look at his numbers

594
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: the last three or four weeks inflated it a lot.

595
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: And again, like part of the reason Perty was in

596
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: the MVP conversation. It was an atrocious MVP year. So

597
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: this notion that like Josh Allen doesn't belong in the conversation.

598
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: To me, it's like, are we watching the same guys

599
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 1: play fucking football? His defense is fucking off. He was

600
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: playing with guys off the street. I feel like I

601
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: can defend Josh Allen. I mean, what do we anyone

602
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: who's watched football long enough and watched that guy's play

603
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 1: and doesn't go God that the guy's a remarkable player.

604
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: Joe Burrows in a sling. My question is about how

605
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: much defensive scheme impacts the pressure defensive lineman's generate. I've

606
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: seen two lines, and the Niners and Eagles with big

607
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: names generate little to no pressure in their playoff games

608
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: this year. Bosas specifically sounds out stands out as a

609
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: player is having an extremely down year compared to with

610
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: Demiko Ryans. I think the scheme definitely helps write any player.

611
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: But I do think sometimes as a defensive lineman it's

612
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: like it's a three to two count. You either can

613
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: hit the outside fastballer you can't right. You either can

614
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: get a shot one on one against a good defender

615
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: in the playoffs or you can't. Like eventually, if I'm

616
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: a pass rusher and I'm going one on one with

617
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 1: a tackle, or I'm an interior pass rusher and I'm

618
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: getting chipped, I either get penetration, right, I can't. And

619
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, I think it's easy to blame the

620
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: defensive coordinators. But like, sometimes you gotta make plays, you know,

621
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: Like I watch Aaron Donald a lot over the years.

622
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: It's like he just finds there's a will, there's a way,

623
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: like TJ. Watt. You just watched TJ Watt, Like is

624
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 1: it the scheme or is it just like this guy's

625
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: just getting home? So I I typically when it comes

626
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: to defensive lineman, like corners, corners can greatly benefit from

627
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: a scheme. Most corners are very scheme dependent. To me,

628
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: good defensive lineman, highly paid, twenty thirty million dollar defensive

629
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,360
Speaker 1: lineman gotta win. You're one on one with a guard

630
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: fifteen times during a game in pass RUSS situations like

631
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: can you get five pressures? Do you think the Broncos

632
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: should draft a quarterback and build around him or should

633
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: they just trade up for someone like Tua? Uh? That's

634
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: a good question. Who's really Tua? In this draft. I

635
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,760
Speaker 1: guess it would be Penix. His combine is gonna be huge.

636
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,480
Speaker 1: You know his knees, uh, the medical with him, So

637
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: I would say I would just imagine they draft a quarterback,

638
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: but I don't know when. Wouldn't totally shock me if

639
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: they keep building up the team and they just play

640
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: next year with Stidham said, you listen to financial podcasts,

641
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: what would you recommend? I get asked this question a lot.

642
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: I think I've said it like ten times. You know

643
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: the compound Josh Brown, He's my go to love the

644
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: show and I listen every day while I'm running my route.

645
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: I'm a big Panther fan and wanted to get your

646
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: thoughts on Canalis as a head coach. Most fans on

647
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:26,399
Speaker 1: X think it's just Dan Morgan's buddy. Well, I don't

648
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: know the guy. I honestly don't know that much about him. Obviously,

649
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,000
Speaker 1: he's a long time position coach for Pete Carroll in

650
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: Seattle and as a coordinator this year was good, I

651
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: mean resurrected Baker's career. He looks. I mean, you see

652
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: that guy. I always wonder a coaches the hours they work, Like,

653
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: how does he say so skinny. Does he just not

654
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: have a sweet tooth? Is hes not snacking looks fantastic.

655
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: Let's be real about this. The Panthers organization is beyond

656
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 1: a shit show simply because of the owner, who has

657
00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: unlimited money, who thinks he who tells coaches what plays

658
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 1: to run and drills to run in practice and who

659
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: to draft, and who designed Most people did not want

660
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,479
Speaker 1: that job. I'm not taking anything away from this guy.

661
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: But Dave Canalis, who was a one year coordinator kind

662
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: of out of nowhere, signs a six year contract that

663
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: tells you everything you need to know. Dan Morgan was

664
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: just in the building as the last several years and

665
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: he becomes the gm SO and listen. I've always liked

666
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 1: Dan Morgan, met him a couple of times. I just

667
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: think that organization is talk about it problem, new listener

668
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: the last couple of months to your podcast. I listen

669
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 1: to almost everyone now. The way you translate real life

670
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,919
Speaker 1: to sporting scenarios is next to nothing. Colin does it well,

671
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: but he's on a bigger scale, doesn't have time for

672
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,439
Speaker 1: listeners to go on and on. Learn a lot from

673
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,919
Speaker 1: yourself in life and how to operate as a young

674
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 1: man God influencing the youth and the way you should

675
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: conduct yourself. I don't know if I'd go that far,

676
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: but I appreciate it. Uh Hey, John love thepod. I'm

677
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: not a Bills fan, but I think it's a good

678
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:12,839
Speaker 1: idea they could do to fix their team is to

679
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: move on from Diggs. I think they need to trade

680
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: him and try to get Jefferson or someone else that's

681
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: in the class of wide receivers. How do you do that?

682
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 1: That's one of the great trades of all time. There

683
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: was a win. Win was the Vikings trading Digs of

684
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: the Bills for pick whatever it was twenty two and

685
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: taking Justin Jefferson. So if you are gonna trade Digs,

686
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 1: you're not gonna get a first round pick at this time,

687
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: and then you just got to keep your fingers crossed.

688
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: You get like Deebo, Samuel dk metcalfor DeVante Adams in

689
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: the second round, assuming you get a second round pick

690
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: for him. I don't normally watch much of the late

691
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 1: rounds of the draft, but a few years ago a

692
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,240
Speaker 1: kid who had watched play in high school had declared

693
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: for the draft. For the last several rounds, he was

694
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: listed as one of the best players available. He wasn't drafted,

695
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: probably because of injuries, as a free agent and played

696
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,759
Speaker 1: briefly in the National Football League. Is it better to

697
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: be drafted and be saddled with the tag of mister

698
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: irrelevant or be listed on the draft board? Is the

699
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: best player still on the board when the draft ends? Well,

700
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: who's board? Right? If you're on the team's board, it's like, hey,

701
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: we want you as an undrafted free agent. We had

702
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 1: you as a fifth round pick, but we didn't have

703
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: any picks. Yeah, that's good. But if you're on mel

704
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: Kiper Daniel Jeremiah's board, that doesn't matter. It's irrelevant. And

705
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: I listen, I love DJ and mel Kiper is like

706
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 1: anyone my age, dude to badass. But their boards do

707
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: not matter for the league. So you would always want

708
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 1: to be drafted, in my opinion, because that means the

709
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: team there are people invested in you as an undrafted

710
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,760
Speaker 1: free agent. I do think it's a little harder, even

711
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: though in the NFL it's definitely possible, right, and we

712
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: see it all the time, guys become legit players. But

713
00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 1: you are fighting an uphill battle and you're gonna need injuries, right,

714
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: so if things don't break your way, it can be difficult.

715
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: And yeah, that's all I would say. It's if I'm

716
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 1: a six I'd rather be a six round pick than

717
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent and just be like when the

718
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: draft ends, I'm the best undrafted player on mel Kiper's board,

719
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 1: I would much rather be picked two H two. I mean,

720
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: look at rock Perty. Part of the reason like they

721
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: not only they drafted them, they when they call them

722
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,279
Speaker 1: like we like you. The forty nine ers put it

723
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: out a couple months ago, like of the draft call

724
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 1: of Kyle going, people in this building like you. You

725
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: always want supporters. I say it all the time. You

726
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: want people in your professional life. As a young person

727
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: who believe in you. It has to happen whether you're

728
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos or me or you. If you start at

729
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 1: a company doing whatever you're gonna do in your early

730
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: to mid twenties, you need a support system of someone

731
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 1: that goes I believe in this kid. If you don't

732
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: have that, this fucking cutthroat world man, the private sector

733
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 1: will eat you up and spa you alive. I don't

734
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: care what you're doing, especially playing in football. So sometimes

735
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 1: undrafted free agent like We just need a body, and

736
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,280
Speaker 1: we lie to them. If I draft you, one hundred

737
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: percent people like you in the building position coach, a coordinator,

738
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 1: the owner, the GM, the assistant GM. Somebody likes you.

739
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: Now that that's true sometimes too an undrafted free agents,

740
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 1: But it's one percent true when I use a draft

741
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,720
Speaker 1: pick on you as a player. So I would always

742
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 1: rather be drafted the volume
