1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: Welcome into the lounge presented by DraftKings. The Ravens have

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: their twenty twenty three NFL Draft class. This is take

3
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: two for us doing this because Take one was interrupted

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: by them trading back into the seventh round, so we.

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,479
Speaker 2: Had to run out of the lounge.

6
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 3: Yes, I guess as we're recording this, the seventh round

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,280
Speaker 3: hasn't completely finished yet, so I swear to God so

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 3: hopefully we don't have to rush out of here again

9
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 3: for the Ravens trading back in for mister Relevant.

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,919
Speaker 1: Yes, anyway, really successful draft for the Ravens. I'm really

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: stoked about this draft class. Let's run through the entire

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: class here at the top, just so we have a

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: review here. First round number twenty two overall wide receiver

14
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: z Flowers out of Boston College. Ravens didn't have a

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: second round pick because they traded for Rokwan Smith last season.

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: In the third round, they drafted number eighty six overall

17
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: linebacker Trenton Simpson out of Clemson. In the fourth round,

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: Day three started with outside linebacker Tavius Robinson out of

19
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: Ole Miss. The fifth round, the Ravens selected cornerback Kyu

20
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: Blue Kelly out of Stanford. In the sixth round, they

21
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: picked tackle Uh sal salu salu a MoU all right,

22
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: hold on, wait, I got it, sala a mu amuve

23
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: la ulu.

24
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get it.

25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 3: I think it was closed and the Prescott close. At

26
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 3: the end of the day. Eric Takasa just said, I'm

27
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 3: going with sala.

28
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 2: All right, let me give it one more shot here.

29
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:36,279
Speaker 2: I want to hit it. Sala A move a la ulu.

30
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: I think that was right.

31
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 2: I think I got that.

32
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 3: I think it was well done.

33
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 2: Nailed it.

34
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: And then, as we said, the Ravens traded back into

35
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: the seventh round of this year's draft to select Andrew Voorhees,

36
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: a guard out of USC So that is your entire

37
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: sixth man class there.

38
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: It looked like it was gonna be a five man class,

39
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 2: six man class.

40
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: Garrett, Uh, let's start with you know, we didn't have

41
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: a pod after day two.

42
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: Let's go through and kind.

43
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: Of give a little bit of our breakdown on each

44
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:06,639
Speaker 1: of the picks.

45
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 2: Certain with Trent and Simpson.

46
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Trent and Simpson. I think clearly when the

47
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 3: Ravens talked about that, they said this is just best

48
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: player available. They felt like, you know, we don't know

49
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,839
Speaker 3: exactly who the Ravens were targeting on that second day.

50
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 3: I think it was difficult for them to just sit

51
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 3: there and wait and watch a bunch of guys fly

52
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 3: off the board and basically the draft starts and you

53
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: wait two and a half hours before you pick. And

54
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 3: Eric ta Costa said they kind of got cleaned out

55
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 3: on that day. So I don't know if that meant whether.

56
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: That was they had what was it seven to eight

57
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: guys that they thought like, yeah, we'd be happy to

58
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: get any of these guys with that third round pick,

59
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: and Simpson was the.

60
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: Last got on that list.

61
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, so a bunch of the players end up flying

62
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 3: off the board, But I think that they basically looked

63
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: at it and Simpson is the best player available. He's

64
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 3: somebody who can fly all over the field. They also

65
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 3: like his ability on special teams. That came up multiple

66
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 3: times when they talked about it. So a run and

67
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: hit linebacker. He's big, Like when I look at him too,

68
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,519
Speaker 3: like he's he's big, he's got good speed.

69
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 2: Four yeah, but he like he pretty big for a lineback.

70
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 3: It is pretty big, and like he was a versatile player,

71
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 3: like he was kind of played in a variety of different

72
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 3: roles in Clemson's defense, and they.

73
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: L who's outside inside even at Nickel, I don't think

74
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna play any corner, play any corner for us.

75
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: I don't think that's the case. And he ran the

76
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 1: affording four four four three. He was a point zero

77
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: one second slower than Za Flowers.

78
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he's got off the charts speed just in general. Yeah,

79
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 3: Like he's just a rare athlete. So and the Ravens

80
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: view him really as an off the ball linebacker. So

81
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: how they end up using him this year, you know,

82
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 3: we'll see. But I think that the athlete there, the potential.

83
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 3: It just was the best player available pick and and honestly,

84
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 3: just as a big picture level, like I know we're

85
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 3: gonna go through every individual player, but that was the

86
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: theme of this draft with that Eric Tacosta say, he

87
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: said at the end, what we thought was the end. Basically,

88
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 3: I just kind of put need to the side because

89
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: this team doesn't have a bunch of different needs. And

90
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: so they said in some ways, in a lot of ways,

91
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 3: that just freeze him up to say, trust the process,

92
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 3: trust the board, take the best player available rather than

93
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 3: trying to fit the exact needs. That you're trying to fill.

94
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and they really did kind of fill

95
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 2: the knees. Now.

96
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: The one was they didn't get an early cornerback, right,

97
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: that was the one need going in that we thought

98
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: with one.

99
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 2: Of their first two picks they're going to take a corner.

100
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 2: Everybody was like, is there gonna be a wide receiver

101
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: corner or corner wide receiver? Yep, right, And.

102
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: They didn't do that, And corner was they didn't get

103
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: a corner until the fifth rounds. So that's really the

104
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: one position that was the need that they didn't.

105
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 3: It was also of the most glaring need if you

106
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 3: were ranking needs going in, corner was a head of

107
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 3: wide receiver after the addition of a Dubaic and junior.

108
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: That's correct.

109
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 1: So just my take on Trent and Simpson, like you said,

110
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's a freak. He's a freak, right,

111
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: and and in kind of the positionless defensive football that

112
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: is played in today's NFL, he's a great fit for that.

113
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: You know, he can, like we said, he's very versatile.

114
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: Mike McDonald's going to have a lot of fun thinking

115
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,679
Speaker 1: of ways to get this guy involved. Obviously, the Patrick

116
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: Queen situation. Whatever happens with Patrick Queen, is he you know,

117
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 1: eventually replaced him.

118
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: Who knows, right, we don't know what's going to happen

119
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: with Patrick Queen.

120
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: Eric ta Costa again said he's not going to really

121
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: get into whether he's gonna pick up the fifth year

122
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: option with him. Will know that at the deadline, the

123
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: May one deadline, so you know, kind of I mean,

124
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: is a guy that reminds me of peq. I mean Peq'

125
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: is a freak athlete too. Coming out of LSU. Everybody

126
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: was talking about his athleticism. He can you know, will linebacker,

127
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,799
Speaker 1: can run all over the field, all that stuff. Trenton

128
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: Simpsons reminds me a little bit of that in that

129
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: mold so but just too good of a player really.

130
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 1: I was impressed with him as a kid. All these

131
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: all these players, yeah talking to the media like very

132
00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: impressive people. Yeah, just players, very impressive people, And generally speaking,

133
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: I think that the kind of trend was like high upside,

134
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: very high upside. You know, some of them like might

135
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: not be very polished right now, you know, but the

136
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: upside there is really like with some of these Day

137
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 1: three picks, really big, Yeah, and he's one of those guys.

138
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that there's I agree with you on

139
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 3: the people thing. It definitely seems like character wise from

140
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 3: just the conference calls. You know, you can only tell

141
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 3: so much to a ten minute conference call.

142
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a military kid.

143
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: The write ups, the stories, the features, backstories, with the

144
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 3: vibes that we got and talking with these guys briefly

145
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 3: certainly came across as an impressive bunch of people, not

146
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,239
Speaker 3: just football players.

147
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. All right, so let's go to Day three,

148
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 2: Round four.

149
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: Tavius Robinson outa ole Miss six foot six, two hundred

150
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,560

Speaker 2: And ole Miss and ole Miss.

153
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: in Canada. He played it old miss. You know, he

154
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: was thinking that he was probably gonna mabe, We're gonna

155
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 3: try to play in the CFL. You know. And also

156
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 3: another theme here, you know, we always talk about the stories.

157
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 3: They like this, you know, the stories, and like a

158
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 3: lot of guys have good stories here in this in

159
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 3: this class, he was gonna work for one eight hundred

160
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 3: junk got junk, got junk dunk and he uh and

161
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: he a couple of days before starting, ended up getting

162
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: the offer to go down to Ole Miss and then

163
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,559
Speaker 3: ends up basically packing up heading down to Ole Miss.

164
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was sending down his tape everywhere. He thought

165
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 2: he's gonna play in the CFL.

166
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: The pandemic happened, football got closed down completely in Canada,

167
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: so he said, all right, I'm gonna I want to play.

168
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: I want I'll see if I can go to the States,

169
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: and place started sending out all his tape and then

170
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: although and Behold, like every big time program was like, yeah,

171
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: we're interested, a bunch of them, and he's like, oh okay, yeah,

172
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: and so decides to go to Old Miss and doesn't

173
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: go to one eight hundred got junk.

174
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, a mist opportunity.

175
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: But you know, so he's like to talk about your

176
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 3: high ceiling thing. I think he to me, really falls

177
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 3: into that cot. He's in a sending player Eric's cassa.

178
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 3: The comparison that he threw out was Darius Smith and

179
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 3: Sadarius Smith was a late bloomer, played basketball, decided to

180
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 3: play football late in his career, ends up kind of

181
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 3: he ends up falling in.

182
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: The fourth round. We went the Juco route, I believe, Yeah.

183
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 3: And it was just like, you know, this guy's athletic,

184
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: but hasn't played a ton of football.

185
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 2: You know, good.

186
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 3: Measurables, will freaking athlete. A lot of similarities there, and

187
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: so yeah, certainly if it turns into a Zadarius Smith

188
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: type pick, that would be a home run.

189
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: That would be one of the best pass rushers in

190
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 1: the NFL. Yeah, I mean, dude's huge, six foot six,

191
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: two six seeds. They really talked about and he talked

192
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 1: about on his call with us the motor, high motor.

193
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: You know, he said that a player he's always looked

194
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: up to is Max Crosby the defensive end of the Raiders,

195
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: primarily because of his high motor. Just how hard he

196
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: plays the game. Eric Tacosta talked about that also and

197
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 1: the review press conference, just this guy's always running to

198
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: the ball, and so, you know, you see a player

199
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: who really developed, really took big strides once he got

200
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: into a big time program at Old Miss. Who plays hard,

201
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: wants to be really good desires there. The freakish athleticism

202
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: there like checks a lot of boxes, right like the production.

203
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: I think he had seven and a half sacks or

204
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: something seven sacks last year, tied for the most force

205
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: fumbles in FBS in college football. So like a lot

206
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: of you know, it's not just oh he has the tools.

207
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: He also was productive last year. It's not just became

208
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: a football player.

209
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, the trajectory that you're looking at is

210
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 3: on he's on the right upward trend.

211
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 2: Oh, it's like, okay, this is the guys. Guys. I mean,

212
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 2: if you're if you just got drafted, you better have

213
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,079
Speaker 2: an upward trend.

214
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: If you're going down at this point in your career,

215
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: that's very bad. But I think his is like spiking,

216
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: Like there's a high slant to that puppy.

217
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like again, guy who hasn't played football in

218
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: the States for all that long, and so you hope

219
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 3: that like you get him here, coat him up all

220
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 3: that stuff like that.

221
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: Man off, they hired Chuck Smith as they're out outside

222
00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: linebackers coach.

223
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: Doctor Rush has a new patient. Oh, come on, you're

224
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: not going to give me a laugh for that. Doctor

225
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: Rush has a new patient. Your a cruse control. Wake up, man,

226
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: Come on.

227
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: I've been listening to your jokes for like the last

228
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: seventy two hours and they.

229
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: Just they just started to fall flat.

230
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 3: I don't even like they don't even resonate anymore in

231
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 3: one ear out the other.

232
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: I was going to compare him just real quick and

233
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: then we'll wrap him up. I was thinking, like the

234
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,599
Speaker 1: question with him is is he a DN? Is he

235
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 1: an outside linebacker? He was kind of a hybrid, you know,

236
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 1: he stood up his first year at Old miss UH

237
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: and then put his hand in the dirt the last

238
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: two years and had more production with his hand in

239
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: dirt in Baltimore. You would think maybe they used him

240
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: in both. You know, Zadarias Smith did both. Sometimes he

241
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: was in a two point sands, sometimes he was a

242
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: four point sants, you know, so.

243
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: Maybe he'll do that in the NFL. That's kind of

244
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 2: the question.

245
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: He's a little bit of a tweener d n outside linebacker.

246
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: I was wondering, is he Brent Urban? Granted the Canadian

247
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: roots kind of played into that come but Eric said,

248
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: you know, more close to Zadarius, So yeah, I think

249
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 1: they want him to stand up.

250
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 2: Yeah.

251
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 3: And part of that could I mean the trend to

252
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 3: some degree you talk about positionless football and all that, Yeah,

253
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 3: that could also.

254
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: You know, be to minimized and be part of the

255
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: pass rush package, you know, get another pass rusher on

256
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: the field.

257
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 3: And so there's a bunch of guys who kind of

258
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 3: fall into that, like the tweener categories different layers of

259
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 3: the defense totally. So maybe he's one of those guys

260
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: as well.

261
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: All Right, So fifth round, the Ravens draft cornerback Kyu

262
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: Blue Kelly out of Stanford. And now this is a

263
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: little bit of a different pick. You know, I talked

264
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: about how a lot of high really high ceiling. This

265
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: was more of like a really high floor kind of player. Right, Like,

266
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: here's a four year starter at Stanford who had a

267
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 1: really really good junior season. David Blackburn in the review

268
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: press conference said he thought if he came out last

269
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: year that he would have been a Day two pick,

270
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 1: ends up staying for a senior year and really didn't

271
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: have nearly as much production in terms of PBUs, in

272
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: terms of interceptions, in terms of plays. You know, he

273
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: said he got he got target target twenty five times only. Right,

274
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: So like just kind of like the buzz kind of

275
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: waane about him, you know. And in a deep cornerback class,

276
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 1: a guy like that, who with that who's that talented,

277
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,839
Speaker 1: could last can last. Still the fifth round and the

278
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: Ravens kind of got a bargain there. The very solid,

279
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: very good player totally.

280
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 3: And so you know, he talked about going to the

281
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 3: Senior Bowl and wanting to show NFL teams like, uh yeah.

282
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 2: I still got it. I'm still him, Like I still.

283
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: Have the ability and you guys might have forgotten about

284
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 3: me a little bit. And my name is, you know,

285
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 3: not as high as it was a year ago, all

286
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 3: that stuffy.

287
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 2: And he played well at the Senior Bowl, really well.

288
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: He was the National defensive or National Player of the week.

289
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 1: I think national team players a week, so really good week.

290
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 1: Player of the week, Yeah, really good week.

291
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 3: And then you know, I think the David Blackburn who

292
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 3: you mentioned, he scouted him on the West Coast, you know,

293
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 3: for the past couple of years, and we start four

294
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 3: years at a school Stanford, it's going to stand out.

295
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 3: So when he really caught his eye, and it also

296
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 3: a little plug here for the Ravens Press Pass podcast

297
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,240

00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: of the draft in its entirety. But he said what

300
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 3: caught his eye initially about Kye Blue Kelly was Drake Lunton.

301
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: He was matched up against Drake Lunchon locking him up. Yeah,

302
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 3: And Drake London was struggling against Kye Kyu Blue Kelly,

303
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 3: and it was like, oh, okay, this guy you need

304
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 3: to pay a little extra attention to him. He also

305
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,680
Speaker 3: had some good battles with Jordan Addison.

306
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: Jordan Nisen got one big long touchdown against him, but

307
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: then really kind of strapped him up the rest of

308
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: the time.

309
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he's had some some big matchups in his career,

00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 3: Created Creation, which sounds pretty cool.

316
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: His video game, Like, I haven't played video games in

317
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: a long time, but I kind of want to.

318
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 2: Play this game. I want I do want to play

319
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 2: this game. He's talking about Seal Squad.

320
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 3: He described it as he didn't want to give too

321
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 3: much away. I guess there's also a movie that's going

322
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 3: along with based off a movie. All right, So the

323
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 3: premise of these games is that you go back and

324
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 3: Seal Team six is throughout history and you stop historical

325
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: events from taking place.

326
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,479
Speaker 2: So he's like a back to the future.

327
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: Vibe, say the Titanic, Yeah, steer away from the iceberg.

328
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: I don't know what all the different scenarios.

329
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 3: I don't know.

330
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: If I pressed steal teams with six mission, I don't know.

331
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 3: I don't know exactly what Seal Team six missions are.

332
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 3: He didn't want to say too much. He didn't want

333
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 3: to give too much away about the movie or the game.

334
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 3: But impressive guy, very impressive.

335
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure.

336
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, and also like very athletic, six

337
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: foot one ninety five, like very loose, very fat, like

338
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: like good athlete. Also, you know, And so he looked

339
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: he was going step for step with Jordan Assen. I

340
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: think some of his speed, his long speed was a

341
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: little bit of the question mark maybe also and why

342
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: he lasted until the fifth round, but look, probably a

343
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: fast going against Jordan Assen, who's a big play wide receiver.

344
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: So next round six round, Uh salah a'mu man, here

345
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: we go again.

346
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: A movie laulu.

347
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: This is a six foot five three and twenty five

348
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: pound blocker out of Oregon.

349
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 2: Who's just like fork lifts people.

350
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about all impressive size, this wide body,

351
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: big bone.

352
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 2: He's the opposite to you. He's strong and.

353
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 3: Just just like he's playing offensive tackle in the NFL.

354
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: I would hope that he is six five, three hundred

355
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 2: plus black.

356
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: I mean, just like a big dude who mauls people,

357
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: very physical blocker, you know. I think the reason that

358
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 1: he's here is, you know, there's technique stuff that needs

359
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: to be cleaned up. You know, bending at the waist,

360
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff is what you read in

361
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: the scouting reports. Uh, but this is a developmental prospect

362
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: to give the Joe.

363
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: D on his birthday by the way, you know it's

364
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: Jode's birthday, birthday, Joe, happy birthday.

365
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: On on his birthday, he gets two linemen with the

366
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: last pick developmental and two or you're probably lineman.

367
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 2: You know now Now he played.

368
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: Tackle, uh solid played tackle primarily right tackle at Oregon.

369
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: But Joe Ortiz said, certainly he sees the potential for

370
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: him to move inside the guard.

371
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could. And so let's just kind of keep

372
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 3: rolling here to the last.

373
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: Well, I would just want to say they had Daniel, right,

374
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: who's like your development, developmental, big body tackle. Now they

375
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: got the guard, exciting stuff at a lot of talent,

376
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: kind of replenished the interior offensive line.

377
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 3: There's a lot of belief and Joe d as offensive

378
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: line ye, which he's got a great track record of

379
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 3: develop the guys. I mean, look at Ben Powers totally

380
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: the fourth round pick and now gets this big contract.

381
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 2: In total, there's a lot of third round pick.

382
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so he's got a lot of success in

383
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 3: develop helping develop offensive lineman. And so both of these

384
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 3: guys is late round picks I think could turn out

385
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 3: to be potential starters for sure on this line at

386
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 3: some point.

387
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: Well you talk, you think about the Eric was drawing

388
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: comparison to the nineteen ninety nine draft class.

389
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 2: You know who is in that draft class, Edwin Mulatalo,

390
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 2: late fifth round I think, late.

391
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: Guard pick, who turned out to be a very key

392
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: starter on Super Bowl team.

393
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 2: Yep. So that could be the case.

394
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 3: And then the last pick they trade back in, they

395
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 3: give up a sixth rounder next year to move back

396
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 3: into the Cleveland to take Andrew Vorhees, who's an offensive

397
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 3: linement out of USC six.

398
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: Foot four, six foot six, six foot six. So there

399
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 2: was different.

400
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 3: Here's we get different. We got different numbers initially when

401
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 3: it sort of coming in, so it's like which which

402
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 3: which sheet are we working off here? Uh six six

403
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 3: three ten, sixty six three ten towards ACL at the combine.

404
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 3: So he's not gonna play this year. You know the expectation.

405
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 3: This is basically a red shirt year with him. But

406
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 3: before that injury, he was a Day two pick, most

407
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 3: likely maybe a high Day two pick. Who knows how

408
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 3: high he could have gone. But you know, he has

409
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 3: that injury and then he's basically going to miss this season.

410
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 3: But the Ravens felt like it was just too much

411
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 3: value there in the seventh round that they had to

412
00:17:58,920 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 3: get back in.

413
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: Well, even after the injury, dude still did the bench

414
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 1: press at the combine with a torn ACL put up

415
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: thirty eight reps.

416
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he tours ACL anyway and sat down on

417
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 3: the bench just said, I'm still doing this.

418
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: I mean, you look for toughness and offensive lineman, I

419
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: think you got it. That's like a Marshall yonda Ask story.

420
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 3: That is a marshalll Yon Ask.

421
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 2: That's a story he's gonna tell a lot.

422
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 1: I have a feeling over the years and and you

423
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: know Eric DaCosta obviously last year should with David Ajabo,

424
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: like when the value he is willing to say, all right, guys,

425
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: and he even said this before the draft. Injuries heal,

426
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, like it's only a matter of time. They

427
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: get better from these injuries, right, So you if you

428
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 1: can get incredible value because of an injury, like he

429
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: sees that as a bargain. And so that's what they

430
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: got last year with David Ajabo, who they you know,

431
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: talk about, who was a.

432
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: First round talent, would have been a first.

433
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 1: Round pick had he not torn his his achilles at

434
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: is per day now Andrew verhees you get big time

435
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 1: value because the guys got a ACL. They don't need

436
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: him to play as a rookie. They have plenty of guards.

437
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: It's they're going to have a good competition for replacing

438
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: Ben Powers at left guard.

439
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 2: So he wouldn't have probably won that anyway. So whatever

440
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 2: he sits out his.

441
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: Rookie year, he gets a red shirt year, and then

442
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: he's competing for that job next year.

443
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, totally. And so again you get these two

444
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 3: developmental offensive linemen. Give him to Joe de and and

445
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 3: let them work.

446
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: Yep.

447
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,440
Speaker 2: Let them development.

448
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 3: I think the real reason that they drafted for He's

449
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 3: is long loyal listeners allows one know this. So we

450
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 3: had Daniel Jeremiah on the podcast and he made the

451
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 3: point that he expects the Ravens to pick more than

452
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: five players. So they trust that process way too much.

453
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: They are going to pick more than five players in

454
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 3: the draft. If they don't. If I have a piece

455
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 3: of paper in front of me, I'm gonna eat it. Right,

456
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 3: He's gonna eat the paper in front of him on

457
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 3: the draft desk, right.

458
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: So, and Eric Dekasa loves trading so much that he

459
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: can't resist.

460
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: Was kind of part of the thought process exactly.

461
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 3: And so then we make the five picks. Ravens are done.

462
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 2: You know. Press conference is on the underway. We start walking,

463
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 2: you know, we say.

464
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 3: You know what, let's let's get that clip. We get

465
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 3: that clip we tweeted at the NFL network and Daniel

466
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 3: Jeremiah say, all right, DJ, it's time. It is time

467
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 3: for you to eat the piece of paper. Press conference

468
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 3: takes place ten minutes after that. We're sitting here to

469
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 3: record the episode of the Lounge and get the call.

470
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 3: They've traded back in. They now have six picks they've

471
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 3: taken Andrew Voorhes and Daniel Jeremiah is saved by the bell.

472
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 2: Yep.

473
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: Well, and the other part of that story that you

474
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: left out was the final question or one of the

475
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 1: final last questions in the Review Review press conference was

476
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: from yours truly, in which I asked Eric Casa, you

477
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: know what it felt like?

478
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 2: How he felt only making five picks.

479
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: And you know, everybody thought he was going to trade

480
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: back and we were going to get extra picks and

481
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: haha ha, we didn't.

482
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 2: How did it feel? And so really, what this is

483
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 2: all about.

484
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: Is making me look like an idiot and saving Daniel Jeremiah.

485
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 2: That's what it's about.

486
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 3: That's the theme of the weekend, you know, right, That's like.

487
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 2: I already lost our mock draft. You already got Zave Flowers.

488
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 2: I already lost that.

489
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: I've already had to deal with that all weekend long,

490
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: a pit in my stomach, yep, because Zave Flowers is

491
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: my guy.

492
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 2: You just having to pick them. Yeah, that's how much

493
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: as work, thank you, But he's my guy. You just

494
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: picked my guy. And so I've had to deal with

495
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 2: that all week and everybody making fun of me. The

496
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 2: Garrick one blah blah blah blah blah, and.

497
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: Then I asked the question, how's it feel to make

498
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: five picks? Ah ha ha ha make you wrong with

499
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:27,760
Speaker 1: May six?

500
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's exactly what happened. I think they left and like,

501
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 3: all right, let's just take one more jab at mank

502
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 3: here before the weekends over.

503
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 2: Exactly he already missed.

504
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 3: I mean, Ortiz, we talked to him on Friday's giving

505
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 3: you a hard time.

506
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a tradition around this building. You got

507
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: to take a shot at mink. Yeah, it's a tradition.

508
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that and that tradition extends beyond draft weekend.

509
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 2: Did you see the.

510
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 1: Shot of them in the war room after making They

511
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: were laughing that question for making?

512
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: They were I just know it. Well, that's a good teaser.

515
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: was that a direct shot at me?

00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 2: No? Was treck shot? Right?

538
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 3: gave my big picture takeaway, you know about the Draft.

539
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 2: Best Player available, that's your point. I think it was.

540
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 3: I think it was generally, and I would also say

541
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 3: the other part of it is, like it will it's

542
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 3: gonna be interesting. They only had initially obviously five picks

543
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,360
Speaker 3: they end up taking six. Zay Flowers is gonna play

544
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 3: a really important.

545
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: Role this year, really important role. The rest.

546
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,239
Speaker 3: It will be interesting to see how much they end

547
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 3: up playing this year. Like, I don't know that there

548
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 3: is one hundred certainty for a immediate path onto the field.

549
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: M h yeah, Like I said, kind of like some

550
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: developmental like high ceiling guys. Yeah, you know, I mean

551
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 1: Tavius Robinson. I mean maybe he you know, he's like

552
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: becomes a big time you know, a pass rusher like

553
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: Zadarius I think had six sacks is rookie or something

554
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 1: for six sacks is rookie year, right, Like maybe he's

555
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: a situational past pass rusher that can put up some numbers.

556
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: You know, they need more pass rush off the edge.

557
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: Trenton Simpson, like we said, you know, we'll see what

558
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: happens to Patrick Queen.

559
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: Uh. I would expect that he could be a rotational

560
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 2: kind of guy. You know, he's not gonna be a.

561
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: Starter, right, away, uh, Kye Blue Kelly. I mean, I

562
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: think a reserve quarterback, I don't. I don't expect that

563
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: he's gonna step in them with the spot vacated by

564
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters right away, right, which which just would be

565
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: a lot asking a lot of a fifth round pick.

566
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

567
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: And then and then you have the two interior offensive

568
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: linemen who are really seen as developmental kind of guys.

569
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 3: Right, So it's I agree, it's got a high ceiling

570
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,439
Speaker 3: with the exception of say Flowers, but I think is

571
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 3: for this year, he's going to be a huge piece

572
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 3: of this offense. I think this offense just I mean,

573
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 3: obviously the Lamar Jackson piece and the contract extension there

574
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 3: that took place on Thursday. We've talked about that on

575
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 3: a couple of other podcasts, but obviously that sets your

576
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 3: offense up to be in a really good position and

577
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 3: with a remove.

578
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,199
Speaker 2: The I just think that this is like this offense

579
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 2: is ready to go. The defenses.

580
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, there weren't many needs on offense at all.

581
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: It was really another weapon for Lamar another wide receiver

582
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: which they got a primo one, I mean, pretty awesome

583
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: pick and uh. But beyond that, I mean you weren't

584
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: gonna draft probably a starting left guard.

585
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 3: And you have you have guys in house.

586
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 2: You feel pretty good. They drafted two tight ends last year.

587
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: They they have all their running backs back, ye right,

588
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: Like what else were you drafted on offense? So it

589
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: is wide receiver and and then some developmental interior guys

590
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: that will whatever become starters down the road hopefully, and

591
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 1: then defense.

592
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 3: And then you just added some pieces to this defense.

593
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 3: You could be rotational players, you know.

594
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: Exactly defense, like you really don't have like the I

595
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 1: mean on offense of course at wide receiver, running back

596
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 1: you're rotating, but offensive line primarily it's.

597
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: Those five guys the whole.

598
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: Game, right Like on defense you're mixing. You have a

599
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 1: much better chance of having guys like play a role,

600
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 1: right like kind of getting some reps in the rotation.

601
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: And I think all of these guys could do that.

602
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: You know, depends on injuries now. Now maybe Kyle Blue Kelly,

603
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: you know, he talked about how he feels like he

604
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: can play in the slot. Also in nickel. The Ravens

605
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: do have an opening there, especially because because Kyle Hamilton

606
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: played a lot in the slot last year. But you

607
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: would presume he's gonna play more in the Chuck Clark

608
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 1: spot certainly be a little bit more of a deeper

609
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 1: outside the out of the box safety, So that opens up.

610
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: You have two cornerback back spots really open.

611
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 2: Now.

612
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 3: I think I think that Brandon Stevens is.

613
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: I think going to be a primary contender for one

614
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 1: of those. Yes, But like could Kyle Blue Kelly get

615
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: some snaps in Nick Well, I mean Pepe Williams did

616
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: last year. I think Papa Williams could, and well again

617
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: this will like get Jalen Armor Davis.

618
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 3: And I still like, you know, Jalen Armor Davis, you

619
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 3: know got hurt last year and you know we didn't

620
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 3: see too much of him, but a lot of talent there.

621
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 1: So for sure, I mean they drafted him thinking this

622
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: is starting outside corner. This is a boundary perimeter, starting

623
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: talent corner.

624
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 3: And like from the time we're going back into the

625
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 3: draft here, you know, talk about last year's draft, but

626
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 3: he's said at last year's draft and what many times

627
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 3: since then, Like from the time he got to Alabama,

628
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 3: people are like, you're you're Anthony Aaverrett. You remind me

629
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,679
Speaker 3: of Anthony Averrett. Like everything about you and Anthony Averrett

630
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 3: was slower to get on the field both at Alabama

631
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 3: and here. Uh and but when he got a field,

632
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 3: he played pretty well. So that could be the case

633
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 3: with Jaalen Armor Davis. And just in terms of corner,

634
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 3: it's like, so what's next, Like, will the Ravens add

635
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 3: a corner? Obviously Marcus Peters is still on the market.

636
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 3: There were reports that Rokya Sin visited here made somebody

637
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 3: that the Ravens could add.

638
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 1: I think that they will definitely add a veteran corner.

639
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: I think I think they're gonna have I mean, Eric

640
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 1: tkstas know now with getting Lamar deal done, the Ravens

641
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: do have more cap room. You would presume we haven't

642
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: seen the numbers of what his cap hit is next year,

643
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: but you would presume that they have more cap space

644
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: than they did before getting the deal done, and so

645
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: that allows them to make some moves over the next

646
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: month or so in this next wave of free agency.

647
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: And Eric Costa said that, you know, like he expects

648
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 1: that they're going to be active and so they're still

649
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: going to augment this roster. You know, justin Houston is

650
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: another guy, right, Like, you know, do you bring him back.

651
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: Sure you have Tavis Robinson, but like the guy led

652
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: the Ravens and sacks last year with nine and a half,

653
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: wouldn't shock me if they still want to bring back

654
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 1: another veteran there.

655
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 2: You know.

656
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: So, I think the Ravens are certainly they're absolutely not

657
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 1: done building this team and cornerback.

658
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: I absolutely believe that they'll be in that market. Yeah.

659
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 3: I think that within the next you know, days, weeks,

660
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 3: whatever that the amount of time is, there will be

661
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 3: at least one more veteran corner yep on the team

662
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 3: like GS added yep.

663
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 2: Who's your favorite pick of the draft? Talk about this

664
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 2: favorite pick?

665
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 3: I mean, for me, I think it like the low

666
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 3: hanging fruit. Here is day Flowers. I would I would

667
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 3: point to him. I just think that he's somebody that

668
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 3: gives him a year.

669
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 2: It's it's teasy, it's that's the favorite pick. It's also

670
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 2: the pick that I predicted. All right, how many mob

671
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 2: that players? Zero? We're moving on? It was er, we're

672
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 2: moving on? All right? Who is your favorite?

673
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: Zero?

674
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 2: What over for this year? I'll admit it. I'll admit it,

675
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 2: all right, I'll stop. I won't move on.

676
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: I blew it this year I whiffed. I whiffed, all right,

677
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: I didn't even really come close. So many not close

678
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:36,640
Speaker 1: for me.

679
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 2: No, they would have taken Banks. Well, ask Eric when

680
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 2: he comes.

681
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 3: They would have taken Banks, that he was there, they

682
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 3: could have taken.

683
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: I'm saying, if y wasn't on the board, if the

684
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: charters didn't take Quinton Johnston, Deontay Banks was the pick.

685
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 2: We all know that. We'll confirm a lot of ifs,

686
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: we'll confirm it. We'll confirm it with Eric. So I

687
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 2: was close on that one. The rest not so much.

688
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 1: All right, better question who is your favorite Day two

689
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: or Day three pick?

690
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 2: Like you just like that pick a lot?

691
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 3: Right? You got?

692
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 2: What do you got?

693
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's I like these picks. I mean, I

694
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: guess I would go with Trent and Simpson. That you

695
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: get a guy who just can fly all over the field,

696
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 3: isn't a great and is a great athlete, I would

697
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 3: probably go with that pick.

698
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like, I really liked what he said afterwards.

699
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: He's like, you know, I'm gonna go down as a great,

700
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: an all time great raven.

701
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 2: He was confident, but confident but not cocky.

702
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. I liked his demeanor.

703
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I liked it a lot, Like you're not gonna

704
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: regret this pick. I mean some him get emotional, you know,

705
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 1: with his family.

706
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 3: Really like the guy, so you're going trans Simpson.

707
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: Also, I'm actually gonna go with somebody else. I I

708
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: like the Kye Blue Kelly pick.

709
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 2: I really do.

710
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: I think this is a guy you just want to

711
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: play his video game. I definitely want to play his

712
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: video game. This is a guy who, like you know,

713
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: he's just a competitor, Like was a really good you

714
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 1: know his junior year. There's no reason to think that

715
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: like he got any worse his senior year. I think

716
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: just outside circumstances proved that at the Senior Bowl that

717
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,959
Speaker 1: he can still be that dude. Like I see, like

718
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: we kind of said like high floor, Like this is

719
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: a guy who could step in and you feel like reliable,

720
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: like a good player, you know.

721
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 2: So I like that pick. I like the Tavius Robinson

722
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 2: pick there too.

723
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: If he turns out to be hidarious, I mean, yeah,

724
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: well then the war he is I means.

725
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 3: I know, look, I think that there's like I mean,

726
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 3: you're you're hitting all the stories too, which I think

727
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: is like you that that is part of one of

728
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 3: My favorite things of draft weekend is like you you

729
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 3: do a lot of research on the first two rounds,

730
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 3: you know, and you get a good feel for the

731
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 3: guys at the top of the draft, and then like

732
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 3: you do the immediate research, you get a chance to

733
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 3: talk to these guys soon after the draft is highly emotional,

734
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 3: super excited, and you just can kind of be like, Okay,

735
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 3: I see like Kyl Blue Kelly, You're like, oh, okay,

736
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 3: I get it. I can see why they're so interested,

737
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 3: the Raids are so interested in getting you. Oh like,

738
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 3: just seems like it was it's a pick that makes

739
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 3: too much sense. Did the Ramies just trade back into

740
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 3: the drug?

741
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: No? No, do you do you know any other fifth

742
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: round cornerbacks out of Stanford?

743
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 3: Richard Sherman, That's correct, fifth round?

744
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 2: There you go next. Is a little bit.

745
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: Different six foot three, but Kyu's got good size too,

746
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: just saying like six foot a little different than six

747
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: foot three. But anyway, yeah, like you know, you never know,

748
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: Like I like the guy's demeanor, I like it.

749
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 2: I'd like to pick. I like to pick. I like

750
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 2: to pick.

751
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 3: So look, if the players coming here for work Communic campus,

752

753
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:47,719
