We record on Fridays every week, and today 10 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: we are well this hours removed from the end of 11 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: the first round, and so we're really going to focus 12 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: today on the first round. You don't know the second round, 13 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: and we'll talk through all of the position players. Now. 14 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,279 Speaker 1: At some point in the future, I want to talk 15 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: about some of the other some of the other elements 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: that went into this draft, like offensive linemen who are 17 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: gonna help some other players and some other stuff, Brian. 18 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: But for right now, let's let's keep this too. The 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: the three or four quarterbacks that were taken, Let's talk 20 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: about the six receivers that were taken in the one 21 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: running back in the first round. Sound good? Definitely a 22 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: lot more wide receivers than I thought. By the way 23 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: to went in the first round. Yeah, I think the 24 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: over under was five and a half, so hit the 25 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: over not by a lot, but still I would have 26 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: went under glad I didn't. Well. The theory on under 27 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: was there's so many good receivers you can wait to 28 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: get one um. But I think at the end of 29 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: the day, a lot of teams that had that had need. 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: Like the Vikings are a good example in a lot 31 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: of positions, just the best player there just was a 32 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: receiver and it's just so much better than everybody else. 33 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: You just take justin Jefferson in that particular case. Let's 34 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: start with you will do these in the order they 35 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: were taken in and I think a bit of a 36 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: surprise to have Oakland take the first wide receiver Henry 37 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:52,919 Speaker 1: Oh And by the way, before we get into the receivers, 38 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: let me mention this, it's the first beautiful day in 39 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: in Minnesota for this spring, and I'm outside. You're gonna 40 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: hear random noises like crows chirping, chirp, they call a 41 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: crow cawing. You might hear a little road noise because 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: I've got a road not too far from my house. 43 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: You might hear somebody's like mowing their lawn already or something, 44 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: so you may hear some stuff. But you know what, 45 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: it's seventy degrees. It's the first beautiful day in Minnesota. 46 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be outside right now. I won't because I 47 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: have a really annoying dog as the neighbor. Uh So, yeah, 48 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: we'll mitigate that risk and I'll stay inside and stuff 49 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: for I'll be outside immediately afterwards, though, that could happen. Now. 50 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: My dogs are the annoying dogs in the neighborhood. And 51 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: our next door neighbor dog already came out and they had, 52 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, they had their dust up like they always do. 53 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: That just happened. So I think we're in the clear 54 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: with the dogs, but we'll find out. We begin at 55 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: the wide receiver position. Henry Ruggs is the first guy taken. 56 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: H he would have he wouldn't have been my choice. 57 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: Is the first one taken. But it's the Raiders, and 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: they have the wrong history of coveting speed. Yeah, and 59 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: and they got it in Ruggs Randy four to set 60 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: than forty five eleven one nine. Uh. We compared him 61 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: to Tyreek Hill that's probably the easiest comp and uh yeah, 62 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: Oakland got themselfs a Tyreek killers now to Tyreek kills 63 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: in that a f C West all of a sudden 64 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: bunch of a bunch of awesome wide receivers in the NFCS. 65 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: We'll talk about more, but uh yeah, Ruggs. You know, 66 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: he didn't post huge numbers at Alabama, but again he 67 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: was competing with Jerry Judy for targets and one of 68 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: the ween called the X factor, it's one of many 69 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: X factors. We'll call it a Y factor. Huge hands 70 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: on Henry Ruggs ten had one eight inches, that's seedee 71 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: lamb for references nine and a quarter Jerry Judy nine 72 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: and a half rugs huge hands, decent size, he's not 73 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: afraid of contact based Like we said, fast as hell, 74 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: So I would have went ceedee lamb. I think we 75 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: both agree that so at least didn't take Jerry Judy 76 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: took Henry Ruggs about two d second. But uh, I 77 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: don't r I I would have went lamb. But yeah, Ruggs, 78 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: as he's gonna be an exciting player for I think 79 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: I said Oakland, Las Vegas, Las Vegas us right, And 80 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, he walks into a just a miserable group 81 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: of receivers. They brought in Nelson Aguilar, who will play 82 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: the slot. I believe probably and I'll have to battle 83 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: Hunter Renfro But Tyroll Williams constantly hurt and did very 84 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: little through the second half of the season. There's um 85 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: and Za Jones doesn't even count. You know, we'll find 86 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: out if if Derek Car's get anything left in the tank, hopefully, 87 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: does you know I think that I think I don't 88 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: think he's valueless, and I think Henry Ruggs is pretty 89 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: special and if you can find those spots where he's 90 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: gonna hit the deep touchdown, which will happen, You'll have 91 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: to be smart about trying to pick your spots. Do 92 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: you have a do you have an initial sense of 93 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: where Henry Ruggs would would be ranked among wide receivers 94 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: for you, I I want to say that he's going 95 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: to be in the thirties. Yeah, we're talking. We're talking 96 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: just from a redraft re draft standpoint. I do want 97 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: to do want to do a whole future show on 98 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: Dyning on the dynasty value of these kids, but that's 99 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: that's later. Um. Yeah, definitely in the thirties. I mean, 100 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 1: he's a a wide receiver three at best. I feel like, 101 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: at least for the first half of the season, he 102 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: might you know, as he ramps up for the long 103 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: end of the season, at least he's got Darren Waller 104 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: to help keep defenses. Honest though, it's all I can say. 105 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: There's that. I just think that whole passing offense just 106 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: goes through him right away. You know, thirty might seem 107 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: high to some people, but the other guys that you're 108 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: going to find in the thirties are John Brown, Marquis Brown, 109 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones. Yeah, I think Chark will be higher than that. 110 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, it could be um So that's you know, 111 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: that's that to me, is is why I think Rugs 112 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: will fit into that that sort of spot. All right, 113 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: let's go to our next wide receiver, Denver. Next up? Uh, 114 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: I was Denver. I think was sweating that all three 115 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: of those receivers could have been gone before their pick, 116 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: because the Jets, the Raiders, and the Niners went thirteen 117 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: and many people me had had them going receiver receiver receiver, 118 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: and that would have left Denver, left Denver with the 119 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: fourth best receiver, you know, and I had Justin Jefferson 120 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: penciled in for Denver. Instead, Jerry Judy drops to them, 121 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: what do you think of the Jerry Judy fit for Denver? 122 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: Immediate face palm. I was like, oh my god, Ceedee 123 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: Lamb is there. He's silver platter for Denver. Who asked 124 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,840 Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton, who's like a Batman receiver? Right? So I 125 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: guess they wanted a robin because that's what Jerry Judy is. 126 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: They didn't want to Batman's. They could have had two 127 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: bad I mean, we could be talking about the two 128 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: best wide receiver, you know, the best wide receiver duo 129 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and Courtland Sutton and Ceedee Lamb next 130 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 1: season possibly, But I don't know that. Jerry Judy, Jerry 131 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: Juice not bad. I mean, you know, you know you're 132 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: making it sounds like dude was incredibly productive and he's, 133 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, arguably the most pro ready of any of 134 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: the receivers in this class. Yes, but we had we, 135 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: You and I and a lot of people had Lamb 136 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: just basically in his own tier as the top receiver, 137 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 1: and Ruggs was right there and Judy was right there 138 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: behind Rugs. Uh So I don't know, we should mention 139 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: really quick when we said the Jets didn't take a receiver, 140 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: big win for Brashott Perriman if you very true, very true, 141 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: and even Jamison Cratter. They might take a Day two guy, 142 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: Day three probably, but it's still they didn't take one 143 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: of the elite guys. So that's a that's a big 144 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: boon for Brashott Berriman. Uh shares out there. But back 145 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: to Judy Um again. You know, at Alabama with Henry Ruggs, 146 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: he was, he was the one a option there, twenty 147 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: four touchdowns across his last two seasons, but you know, 148 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: six it just doesn't have standout size speed. He's just 149 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: like he seems like a nice, complimentary receiver, which is 150 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: what will be for Sutton. But they should have they 151 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: should have swung for the fences and went with Lamb. 152 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: But I don't know, but Judy will be a fine player. 153 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: And Denver also was very exciting office. Yeah I think 154 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: so too. Yeah. The problem, I think the problem from 155 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: a fantasy standpoint for Jerry Judy Courtland Sutton is is 156 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: already an accomplished go to number one receiver on that team, 157 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: and I don't know that Jerry gets up to being 158 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: a one B. I think he remains the number two guy. 159 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: And you've you've hint you've just hinted at this. I 160 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: think he stays. I think he's robbin to Courtland Sutton's Batman. 161 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: He might be who's the third in the Batman group? Right, 162 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: because no A Fantom might be robbin for all. Yeah, 163 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: I think it is probably Deshaun Hamilton's flashed for a 164 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: little bit, but it's you know, Kim Patrick. I mean, 165 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: those guys aren't gonna threat. It's probably no A Fan 166 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: who and and these guys a lot unlock some some 167 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: real downfield speed in Courtland Sutton and Jerry Judy. So 168 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: I think the underneath will open up for no Ah 169 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: Fant a little bit as well. Um. I suspect right 170 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: now Jerry Judy would be roughly in the fifties for me. 171 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be in the Emmanuel Sanders, Um, 172 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: Anthony Miller, Sterling, Shepherd, Preston Muslims handcuffs For Courtland Sutton, 173 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: it's like you kind of you kind of It's like 174 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: the rare one of the rare wide receiver handcuffs scenarios. 175 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: If you you draft Courtland Sutton. But what is this 176 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: too for Drew Drew lock He's like borderline no quarterback 177 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: one now and you know, top twelve quarterback, not the 178 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: top overall quarterback. But yeah, it's it's exciting offense now 179 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: because it is still a nice compliment. It is like 180 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: it's not a bad pick by any stretch. Now let's 181 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: go to Seed Lamb, who was the next youever taken. 182 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: I was stunned when Dallas took him. In fact, as 183 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 1: I was doing the I was I was working with 184 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: the Vikings and could have taken I'm sorry to cut 185 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: you off before we go there, right, Atlanta, they should 186 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: have taken Lamb. Well, they had two good receivers too. 187 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: You know, they have gaping need a cornerback. Still, he 188 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 1: had the best players sitting there to take the best player. 189 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: But anyway, I'm sorry, go ahead. So Dallas is on 190 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: the clock and I'm I'm doing radio in the Twin Cities, 191 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: and I say, man, look at you. Look at the 192 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: needs that Dallas has, and they need cornerback, they need safety, 193 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: they need defensive tackle, defensive end. The only thing I 194 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: know for sure about this Dallas pick is it's not 195 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: gonna be offense Bam, Seedee Lamb and I look like 196 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: an ass. So well, it didn't fully make up for 197 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: the Randy Moss Gas many years ago and Dallas and 198 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: a drafted Randy Moss passed on because of the character 199 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: issue with character issues. But I think Jerry Jones is 200 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: just like, you know what, this will make up for 201 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: it somewhat, I guess. But they took the best player. 202 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: That's Jerry Jerry Jones played fantasy football. Yeah he did. 203 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: I mean he just went fantasy football on his team 204 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: and he said, you know what, good luck stop score fifty. 205 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,599 Speaker 1: You know, figure out a way to stop us. You 206 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: know this is Ceedee Lamb is in time going to 207 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 1: be the best receiver on this team. And they already 208 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: had really good receivers Amari Cooper obviously, and then Michael 209 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: Gallup just emerged in a huge way last year. And 210 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: now with Ceedee Lamb, I think see Lamb's the best 211 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: of the bunch. The problem is the problem is the 212 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: good thing is how do you how do you double 213 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: cover any of those guys? You can't, So they mean 214 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna be guys open all the time, ready for 215 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: big plays. The downside is there's just one ball to go. 216 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: But Weena, how do you feel about Ceedee Lamb's fantasy prospects, 217 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: especially in the short term, Probably the worst, worst landing 218 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: spot for the short term when we think he'll still 219 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: be a factor. But he's a man. I would be 220 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: hard pressed to have to pick between he and Rugs 221 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: and Redraft. I might have to go with Rugs just 222 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: because I feel will get more targets than my opportunity 223 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: in Dallas is I've always you know, they've always wanted 224 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: to kill the clock, run the ball, and they're they're 225 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: in a soft division, so they might be able to 226 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: do that more so than not. So yeah, I don't know. 227 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 1: Lamb is he's in the mid to late thirties when 228 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: he could have been a top twenty four option, you know, 229 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: if he landed on the Jets perhaps or something like that. 230 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: But now he's on Dallas and uh, but what There's 231 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: a lot of eye popping stats for Lamb, but again, 232 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: never dropped a pass of twenty plus yards in his 233 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: three seasons at Oklahoma, and we caught a lot of them. Yeah, second, 234 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: a lot of second most broken tackles last year twenty 235 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: six absolutely electric after he's the best receiver after the 236 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: catch in this draft, the instinctiveness number one across college 237 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: football and yards run per route. Um, he wins all 238 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: these contested catches, and just after after he catches the ball, 239 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: you think, you think he's dead, that the defense has 240 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: got him cornered. There's three men between him and the 241 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: end zone. And the next thing you know, he's put 242 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: some crazy freaking move on these dudes and he's running 243 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: down the sideline untouched. What happened? How did you do this? 244 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: An immediate impact player? UM? Just a very tricky landing spot, unfortunately. 245 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: And I think what that's going to mean for him 246 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: and Cooper and Gallup is they're gonna have some down 247 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: games where they're gonna have to catch games while the 248 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: other guys are blowing up. And it's gonna add a 249 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 1: lot of altility and for Gilly Kamari Cooper, who was 250 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: already that way, you know, Cooper was already you know, 251 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: big box score, little box score, big box score, little 252 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: box score. I think it adds just that much more. UM, 253 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: I guess variability to their potential output. Oh yeah, I 254 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: absolutely agree. But it's gotta I mean, Dac is already 255 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: uh top five option for the most part of quarterback. 256 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: But man, I think I like Dac more than Deshaun 257 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: Watson now, even though I might have like Dak one 258 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: of Deshaun Watson ever since they practically jettisoned DeAndre Hopkins 259 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: from Houston. But a big boon for Dak little. Yeah, 260 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard to peg which receiver is gonna 261 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: go off on any Givens some day this year unfortunately 262 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 1: won't be this year where the NFC East where the 263 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys play, are playing the a f C West. We're 264 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: not doing that this year. But when they do play 265 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: the f C West, the NFC East, that is, think 266 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: of Ceedee Lamb gets to face Oakland and Denver in 267 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: the same season, and I'll show him what a huge 268 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: mistake they made. They made not draft picking. Now, that's 269 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: how we feel like this year, Ceedee Lamb, I believe 270 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: I will have ranked in the forties. UM in the 271 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: same kind of ballpark with Jerry Judy and um. You 272 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 1: know if his dynasty values is different than that, and 273 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that in a different show, but from 274 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: a redraft standpoint, I believe he'll be in the forties 275 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 1: as sort of a fourth tier guy who I expect 276 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: to have again big games in small games. Uh, perhaps 277 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: roughly alternating this year. Let's let's take what Let's take 278 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: a break, and then I want to turn my attention 279 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: to the next wide receiver taken Jalen Reagor, and we'll 280 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: also talk about Justin Jefferson and Brandon Ayuk as the 281 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: remaining first round receivers.

Speaking of DFS, 298 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: I am, as of this morning, a proud co owner 299 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: of DraftKings. Oh nice, Yeah? How much? How much? Steak 300 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: can't say, but you know, and you know enough that 301 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm calling Jason Robbins and giving him 302 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: some advice things that he needs to know. There you go, 303 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: very important. Let's get back to Quite the Ride for 304 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: those guys. Quite the Ride. It's it really is. It's 305 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: a story I've I've told Jason this several times. It 306 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: really is. It's gonna be a movie someday. It's it's 307 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: destined to be a movie. Just HB like a mini 308 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: series I think would be better. HBO thing would be great. 309 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: HBO generally does it, right. Um, all right, let's go 310 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: to Philadelphia. They took the fourth receiver off the board, 311 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: Jalen Reagor. Most people had justin Jefferson going to Philadelphia. 312 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: I did. Um, they end up with Reagor instead, And 313 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: I think the reason they did it, Brian, was because 314 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: they wanted to get a receiver who they felt more 315 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: comfortable running outside. Jefferson primarily running from the slot last year, 316 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: and I think Regor gives you the opportunity to get 317 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: somebody that can play inside but also has proven to 318 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: be a a solid producing receiver on the outside as well. 319 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about the fit for the Eagles? 320 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: And Lord knows they needed help with the position, Holy cow, Yeah, 321 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: they're probably not done drafting receivers, but yeah, we pegged 322 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: Regor as a possible Day one guy, and he obviously 323 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 1: turned out to be one h A little bit of 324 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: a head scratching pick, though I din't think Philly would 325 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: take Justin Jefferson as well. Reagor didn't have a lot 326 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: of great numbers uh last year. Um, but that seems 327 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: play with quack true freshman as well. So I don't know. 328 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: From a redraft standpoint, I I don't a bit of 329 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: the drop sees I've heard in a case of the 330 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: drop seas, But when it comes to opportunity and quarterback 331 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: in prolific offense, I think he stands to had the 332 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: best season of any one rookie wide receiver this year. 333 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: If it's not Henry Ruggs, Yeah, it is it is possible. 334 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,479 Speaker 1: It's just because you have so much. A fantasy football 335 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: is about opportunity. This whole passing offense may end up 336 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: going through Jalen Reagor sooner than later, and as soon 337 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: as potentially this year, just because who else you gonna 338 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: trust me? Look at look at they were making do 339 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 1: with the likes of Greg Ward last year. They couldn't. 340 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: They didn't have a healthy body to throw at that position. 341 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: And God only knows what the status of all Sean 342 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: Jeffrey is going to be going forward. And you know 343 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: you can't, You can't really trust him at all. So 344 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 1: you just you get the feeling that you're marrying Jalen 345 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: Reagor all the productivity you despite the terrible quarterbacking at TCU, 346 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: the lead level of athleticism, his double move is ridiculous. 347 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: He battles for every contested ball, And now we're gonna 348 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: hook him up with potentially some pretty darn good quarterbacking 349 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: and Carson Wentz and the upside here seems to be 350 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: awfully high. Yeah, I think, and right now I think 351 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 1: the sharp play, I mean, people aren't sharp on Ragor yet. 352 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: I think if you're if you're drafting right now in 353 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 1: Best Ball or even just seasonal, people are still going 354 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: to gravitate towards Cede, Ceedee, Lamb, Jerry Judy, Henry Ruggs. 355 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: When you probably get Ragor one to three rounds later 356 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: than those guys. And again he probably will outproduce all 357 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: those all those guys in his rookie year based on 358 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: the expected volume he's gonna get. So yeah, ragor Uh 359 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: sneaky play, you know, a sleeper as of right now 360 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: in my mind, yeah, I think so too. I'm really 361 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: interested in him. I think for redraft for this year, 362 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: he'll be in the thirties. For me, again, I like him. 363 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: I like him just the opportunity to me is just 364 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 1: so good. So I think he's in the conver station 365 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 1: with some of the guys who mentioned in the thirties 366 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: before the Marvin Jones and Marquis Brown and John Brown 367 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: and Christian Kirk. I think he's in that. I think 368 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: he's in that level of conversation for re draft of 369 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: this coming season. Let's let's go to the next player taken. 370 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: That's Justin Jefferson in Minnesota. Vikings Uh end up replacing 371 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: Stefan Digs, a player who's pretty different than Diggs. Jefferson 372 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 1: ran eighty percent of his place from the slot last year, 373 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: but the year before that played much more outside. What 374 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: was fascinating about Jefferson in the slot. So many of 375 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: the slot receivers are Cole Beasley. You're running eight yards 376 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: slants and here comes the ball and let's see what 377 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: you do after the catch. That's not the way l 378 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: s you use jeff jeff Justin Jefferson at all. They'd 379 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: be they were running full route trees out of the 380 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: slot for him. Bombs forty yards downfield out of out 381 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: of the slot repeatedly, and he's he's getting separation, and 382 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: when he's not, he's winning contested catches. He's got He's 383 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: one of the best contested catch receivers in this league 384 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: and insanely productive, top three in college football in receptions, yards, 385 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 1: and touchdowns. That's Justin Jefferson. Yeah, and and not built 386 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: like a stereotypical slot receiver either. It's six tous pounds. 387 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: He's got sized, and he can win on the outside 388 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: if they if his route tree gets extended to the 389 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: outside and the pros. But again, he has no real weaknesses. 390 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: But we went over this couple of weeks ago with Jefferson. 391 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: He might have the safest floor of all these day 392 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: one wide receivers, but not the highest ceiling. He doesn't 393 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: have that superstar potential, it seems. But he's going to 394 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: be a very solid proro and he should contribute right 395 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: away now that Stefon Diggs no longer a Viking. But 396 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. They kind of got to slot guys 397 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: in Feeling and justin Jefferson now, so some the just 398 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: student adjustments are not to be made by somebody. But 399 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: I think both these guys are good enough that shouldn't 400 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: be too much of a problem. Yeah, they'll find ways 401 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: to use both. In your right, Adam thelands is his 402 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: best productivity does come from the slot, but he plays 403 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: a lot outside as well. And I think they I 404 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: think they will use they will use both in and outside, 405 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: and sometimes I think they both. They'll both be inside. 406 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: They'll they'll four receiver sets. Will they'll use Theeling and 407 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: Jefferson inside. I think there's another guy that feels like 408 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: he's he's the thirties are getting are getting crowded here. 409 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: He feels like he could be in the thirties For me, 410 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,360 Speaker 1: maybe he's a little closer to forty. But Justin Jefferson 411 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: is going to be somebody that ends up getting a 412 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: lot of playing time beginning Week one. And he's got 413 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 1: a strong armed quarterback in Kirk Cousins that can get 414 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: him the ball. Yeah. Yeah, He's gonna definitely be a 415 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: viable wide receiver three option. I would think this season, 416 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna call him high forties. Uh, in the Darius 417 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: Slayton level conversation right now for Justin Jefferson. In a 418 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: different year, Justin Jefferson could have been the first wide 419 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: receiver taken. The final receiver taken in the draft this 420 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: year was San Francisco taking Brandon Ayuk, a Juco transfer 421 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: who end it up being incredibly productive and and it's 422 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: somebody that I think the steam on him just kept 423 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: growing and growing. He's explosive, he's got deep speed. He's 424 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: also a return guy. For those in leagues that that 425 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 1: give give extra points for returns, you'll get return yardage 426 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: and potentially touchdowns. Is both a kick returner and a 427 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: punder returner. What are your thoughts on Brandon Ayuku probably 428 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: slots in as a day day one, game one starter. Yeah. 429 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: I was a little surprised to see San Francisco move 430 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: up to draft him. But then I read today that 431 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: Kyle Shannon Shanahan had him ranked as his number one 432 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver on his on his big board, with ceed 433 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb closely behind. So I'm like, wow, wow. And 434 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is bread some pretty nice receivers over over 435 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: his career, starting with you know, Josh Gordon, Julio Jones. 436 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: The list goes on and on. Pierre Look, Deebo Samuel 437 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: as a Brookie Davo Samuels. But but yeah, built similarly 438 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: to Henry Ruggs, he's abou five eleven pounds, but he's 439 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: got the wingspan of Megatron. His wingspan is one. He's 440 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: a freak of nature in that sense. So his catch 441 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: radius is much bigger than it seems. So yeah, you hyeah, 442 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: you know he's gonna arguably be the top wide receiver. 443 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel's a mighty fine player, of course, George Kittles 444 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 1: in tow in San Francisco, he's the top receiving option. 445 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: But you because, uh, again, we're running out of numbers 446 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: in the thirties, I think, but he's, uh, you can't 447 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: argue if you put him, put him in that kind 448 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: of range. I know. It's just so many good receivers 449 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: this year, Brian, It's crazy. There was only one running 450 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,479 Speaker 1: back taken in the first round, which was one more 451 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: than many people expected. But I had mocked running back 452 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: to the Chiefs. I had it as DeAndre Swift because 453 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: I thought they might want a little more muscle at 454 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 1: the position. But Clyde Edwards Hilaire is so much fun 455 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: and he's so good. He is going to be Brian 456 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: Westbrook for Andy Reid, just like Westbrook was with the Eagles. 457 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: He's if you if you think Maurice Jones Drew, you've 458 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: got the right idea on Clyde Edwards. Hi layer and 459 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 1: what a fascinating development this is for fantasy players. Yeah, 460 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's a top ten running back right now. 461 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: I would have to say, uh in redraft, you know 462 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: quick reaction. Um. I think he built like a house. 463 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 1: He's got speed, he's got moves, he can catch the ball. 464 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: He's obviously on the most prolific offense in the NFL. 465 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: Damian Williams is still going to factor in. But I 466 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: know that's the flying, that's the fly in the ointment, 467 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: isn't it it is? Man? Yeah, Andy Reid, he already 468 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: said that, uh ce H is better than Brian Westbrook 469 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: is most productive running back of all time. I don't 470 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: know how he can really make that call. I think 471 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: Brian Westbrook is number two in total yards all time. 472 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because he was a return guy, got in 473 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: the return yards and stuff. Yeah. Um, I top ten 474 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: might be aggressive. Let me throw some Clyde Edwards Hilaire 475 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: based on what we right no, right now, which in 476 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: my mind is that I think he's a sixty forty 477 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: timeshare winner. I think he's on the sixty side of sixty, 478 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: and maybe it's more like seventy. But in that offense, 479 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: that's like seventy thirty at least on an average team. Right, 480 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: just get that piece of that juicy pie. So if 481 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: it came down to him or let's say Kenyan Drake, 482 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire or Kenyan Drake, oh man, uh the 483 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 1: offense is exciting enough, the prospects of it in Arizona. 484 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 1: I'm probably lean Drake. Who's gonna be the Bell Cow situation? 485 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: I think it's that that close. I'm giving you guys 486 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: in that ten to twelve range Austin Ekeler I probably 487 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: had on the heels of last season, and now that 488 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: Gordon's I'd have to lean Ekeler. But these are they're 489 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: not easy decisions. They're definitely it's not a ten out 490 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: of tend scenario. Right, take Eler every time, that's for sure. 491 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: No Um, Josh Jacobs or Clyde Edwards, Hilaire Ppr, I 492 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: gotta I might have to go Edwards Layer there. I 493 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: don't I know Jacob's Uh. I was down on Jacob's 494 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 1: last year. I was wrong, but I just now now 495 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: the offense is outweighing the player when and Edwards A 496 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: layer might be a better player than Johsh Jacobs there. 497 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: He probably is actually, so yeah, I love him. Let's 498 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: just touch on Let's touch on him for just second, 499 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more for people that maybe I don't 500 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,959 Speaker 1: know how you couldn't have seen his game at at 501 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: some point because LSU was so high profile. But the 502 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: low center of gravity, powerful compact runner um, excellent short 503 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 1: space footwork, and that ends up giving defenders a lot 504 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: of bad angles on tackles that don't end up connecting 505 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: very well, and he breaks a ton of them. He's 506 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: got amazing balance in a spin move that's devastating. He's 507 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: a good, good receiver, maybe the best receiving back among 508 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: the elite backs here in the in this draft. So 509 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: there's just a ton to like for him altogether, and um, 510 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: yeah a lot. I just I just think the only 511 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: the only real knock on on Clyde Edwards Hilaire is 512 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: at the combine run of four six, and people really 513 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: expected that to be more like a four five, and 514 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: so the slower combined time for some people was a 515 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: bit of a red flag. But obviously not Frandy Reid. 516 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: You know, he seems like a guy though, who's not 517 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: going to be weighed down by paths at all. I 518 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: feel like he might run faster and paths, whereas other 519 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: running backs, by the way, they should we wear helmets 520 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: and paths in the combines when they running these drills. 521 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: I don't understand. Yeah, I'm kind of with you. They 522 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: never you know, they're they're never gonna track track shorts 523 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: the play the game. So I'm kind of with you. 524 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: They're never playing in the speedos. But uh, but anyway, Yeah, 525 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,959 Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire, Uh, he's the top rookie running back off 526 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 1: the board's regardless where these other guys fall, though, I 527 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: would have to say I think at all. I think 528 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: it's too earlate to say that there's too many running backs. 529 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: You know, Jonathan Taylor falls into the perfect spot, DeAndre 530 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: Swift in the perfect spot, or j K. Dobbins in 531 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: the perfect spot. We're gonna have another conversation and that'll 532 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: be by the way. That will be the next podcast. 533 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: Next week's podcast will be the rest of the draft 534 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: after week, after the first round, we'll touch on the 535 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: key players who went afterwards. UH and speaking of coming 536 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: up next after this break, we will talk about the quarterbacks, 537 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: the four quarterbacks, what their prospects look like in the 538 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: short term and long term. For Joe Burrow to Justin 539 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: Herbert Jordan's Love. We'll talk through those guys in just moments. 540 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,959 Speaker 1: It is Fantasy Football Weekly with Paul Charchying and Brian Johnson. 541 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul charchy and Brian Johnson 542 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: with you. We're breaking down the first round rookies. As 543 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: we're recording, I'm in my backyard. It is the first 544 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: beautiful day of spring in Minnesota. UH. We have one 545 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: round to work with. Next week we'll break down rounds 546 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: two and beyond. This week we're focusing on the players 547 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: and went on round one. We've already done the running backs, 548 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: We've done the well running back singular, We've done six 549 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: of the all six of the wide receivers. Now we 550 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: turn our attention to the quarterbacks taken in this draft, 551 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 1: in the first round, beginning with Joe Burrow. I it's 552 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: the obvious pick, as Joe Burrow comes off arguably the 553 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: greatest passing season in the history of college football, and 554 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: he has a lot of advantages that a lot of 555 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: quarterbacks don't have, Brian in that he gains a pretty 556 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: complete set of offensive players around him to help support 557 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: him in a way that a lot of players that 558 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: go first overall don't have. And you know, for example, 559 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,479 Speaker 1: if Miami had had the first pick, which I think 560 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: was the plan all along, they would they did not 561 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: have all the weapons around Joe Burrow that the Bengals 562 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: have got. You know, a j Green, John Ross, Tyler Boyd, 563 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: Joe Mixon. These are these are quality players that can 564 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: take a lot of heat off of him and really 565 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: unlocked some playmaking ability. Yeah, it's definitely underrated. Arsenal in 566 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: Cincinnati that that never got to play together last year. 567 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: A J Green the whole season and John John Ross 568 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: got off that amazing start and then he practically missed 569 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: the whole season. So yeah, all those guys can stay healthy. Burrow, 570 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: it's got something to work with him. You know, he's 571 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 1: got the he's got the size you want, six three 572 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: two twenty. Underrated as a runner as well, he had 573 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: almost four into at rushing yards at five rushing touchdowns. 574 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: Yes year at l s U. So not the biggest arm, 575 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: but it's incredibly accurate. Uh So, Yeah, Burrow will be 576 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: a spot starter in one quarterback leagues this year. In 577 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: redraft leagues for sure. Yeah, he's not a top twelve 578 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: option by by any means, but I think he'd be 579 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: inside the top twenty almost just based on the fact 580 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: that since he's going to be Remember it's fantasy football, 581 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 1: it's not reality football, so the Bengals are usually chasing 582 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: points in a fall in the air, so you gotta 583 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: let so you know. And at this point of that 584 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: most for listeners already very familiar with Joe Burrow. Um, 585 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: but need us to say the NFL game is not 586 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: going to be too big for him. You look at 587 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, you look at what he did in big games, 588 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: and he's just you know, there's nothing to suggest that 589 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: he hasn't headed on a path of superstardom. So we 590 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: love Joe Burrow. Just again, Redraft, and we'll have a dynasty, 591 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: the whole separate dynasty. Show later, Redraft, where are you 592 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: looking at Joe Burrow? As and you mentioned you think 593 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: he could be a cube, a spot start QB one 594 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: as a rookie, right, yeah, definitely the right. So what 595 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: are we talking about talking about? Quarterback? Is he in 596 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: the Matthew Stafford, Tannehill, Drew Lock range. He's a little 597 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: behind those guys in my mind, definitely behind Lock. Now 598 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: that they drafted Jerry Judy Burrows like the perfect quarterback 599 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: to draft if you if you invest early in a 600 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: Mahomes uh you know, or Lamar Jackson or a Doc 601 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: Prescott even uh weight on Burrow, He's he's gonna go 602 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: probably you know, around the twenty quarterback off the board, 603 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: woman imagine, So I'll put him right around there, all right. 604 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: Next up, Miami was picked five. They held tight to 605 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: pick five and sweating bullets, I believe, hoping that to 606 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: a Tonguo Vio Lowa would fall to them, and he did, 607 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: and so it all worked out for Miami. You know, 608 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: the whole premise all last year was tanked for tah. 609 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: They end up winning some games that they probably didn't 610 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: intend to win, but they ended up winning games and 611 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: they still got to us, So it turned out okay 612 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: for them. Um, I don't know, you know, I think 613 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: the big question for fantasy owners is going to be 614 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: is he a week one starter? Is he a Week 615 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: nine starter? Or does he sit the whole season. That's 616 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: gonna be one of the really difficult things, at least 617 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: now as we're you know, several months away from the 618 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: start of the start of the season. That's gonna be 619 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 1: one of the big questions. On TOA is you know, 620 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: how how long of a runway did they give Ryan 621 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick before they ease TWA into play. Yeah, well, to 622 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: A probably wouldn't have been there if not for the 623 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: hip injury for Miami for five, you have probably got 624 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: the number one overall. He would or he would he 625 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: could have been arguing the number one quarterback taken if 626 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: he was you know, a full healthy season at Alabama. 627 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: But that didn't happen, so we won't discuss that. But 628 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 1: you know, I think two as sits for the majority 629 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: of the season, because Fitzpatrick looked pretty good towards the 630 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: end of last year in Miami. Has got something cooking 631 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 1: down in South Beach. And let's not forget that the 632 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: Patriots are not really the Patriots anymore. And right it's 633 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: wide open now, and Ryan Fitzpatrick could lead the Dolphins 634 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,239 Speaker 1: to an ANFC East Division title, even though I think 635 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: Buffalo takes at home. But yeah, to Uh, this is 636 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: I know we're not talking too many dynasty implications, but 637 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm not drafting to Uh in redraft. You're obviously taking 638 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: Burrow before two and redraft. But if I'm taking a 639 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: quarterback in dynasty, I'll probably taken two over Burrow because 640 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: I think long term injuries not a concern, at least 641 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: the hip. You know, an injury like anyone else's, it's 642 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: possible for any player. So I'm going to along to 643 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: him over bur Oh, but definitely Burrow in the short term. Okay, 644 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 1: that's yeah. Two. Back to your Patriots Dolphins as it 645 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: is today, the Friday after Round one, in which the 646 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: Patriots traded out of Round one and the Dolphins had 647 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 1: three first round picks. I would rather have the Dolphins 648 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: roster than the Patriots, and I don't think it's very close. Yeah, 649 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: I can't argue that I'd rather have the Patriots coach. 650 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: I don't have to deal with them. I'd rather have 651 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: that coach. Let's go to the third quarterback taken pick 652 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 1: number six, the Chargers taking Justin Herbert. Um this despite 653 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: offseason repeatedly saying Tyrod Taylor, we love Tyrod Taylor, We're 654 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: ready to go to war with Tyrod Taylor all the time. 655 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: And then Tyrod Taylor same thing as Baker Mayfield when 656 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: he was with the Browns, right Baker, They were doing 657 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: the same thing with the Browns talking about Tyler Taylor 658 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: could be their starter, and you know, they don't need 659 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 1: to take a quarterback, and then they take a quarterback 660 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: who presumably will end up starting sooner than later over 661 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor. Do you think I think until they fall 662 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: out of contention, which they probably will the Los Angeles Charterers, 663 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: but I think Tyrod starts the season uh as the starter, 664 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 1: basically rendering Herbert useless and redraft drafts. I'm not going 665 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: to be target name and drafts by any means, I 666 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: think he's a more of a project than to and 667 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: definitely Burrow. So I'm not too excited about herbert prospects 668 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: this season, and I don't know. I'm not sold on 669 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: him long term either. I know we're not really going 670 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: there now, so I don't know. I have a ton 671 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: of exciting things to say about Herbert. He's not really 672 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: gonna factor in. You know, it'll be he'll be a 673 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: much more interesting conversation when in our Dynasty podcast because 674 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: long term, when he can work out some of the 675 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: some of the issues that he's got, accuracy, you know, 676 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: the fumbling, you know, it's all different conversation. I could 677 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: see Herbert, just the arm is so good. I could 678 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: see long term, we're Herbert's got a lot of value. 679 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: I just I'm not sure, um that it's gonna materialize 680 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: this season. I think he starts sooner than you do. 681 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 1: But that's you know, that's neither here nor there, because 682 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: he's not he's probably not draftable. Last guy and he's 683 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: totally undraftable and redraft is Jordan's love to the Green 684 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 1: Bay Packers in a shocking and frankly baffling move. Yeah, 685 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, I don't know what to say. 686 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: There's nothing to say when it comes to redraft, right, 687 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 1: He's not gonna play this year, He's not gonna play 688 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: next He's not gonna play until Rogers gets hurt or 689 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: just gets so piste off that he quits football. How 690 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: about I was saying, traded to the Patriots. This is 691 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 1: the only team that needs a quarterback that's left is 692 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: are the Patriots. And so that makes you know, that 693 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: makes I've already seen a bunch of tweets from people 694 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: talking about how the Patriots, the Patriots, with all the 695 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: draft capital that they've got as we head into Friday's draft, 696 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,479 Speaker 1: could end up moving for Aaron Rodgers. It's not gonna happen, 697 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: but it's still fun to talk about. It's not a 698 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 1: huge window. It's it's a very small window. But there 699 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: is a window open right now for the Packers to 700 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. But they pretty much just slammed 701 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: it shut. I mean, if they're gonna trade up, they 702 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: trade up and you draft ceedee lamb Rogers. We're kidding 703 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: right outside of Davante Adams and you know, yeah, perplexing move. 704 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 1: Uh the Packard Look the Packers may have somebody like 705 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: Tee Higgins or Laviska Chenald or Denzel Mims or Michael 706 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: Pittman fall to them at the bottom of the second round. 707 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,479 Speaker 1: That's that's a real possibility for them. You can't fault 708 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 1: the long term play. But I mean, but when you 709 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: have no you can't the best the best you can 710 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 1: you can In this instance, I think you can. I mean, 711 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, Love has got a lot of work to 712 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: do a lot now. Fortunately, I'll have a lot of 713 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: time to get it straightened out. He'll have He's a 714 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: matter of years to learn behind Aaron Rodgers. And if 715 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers gets bitchy about this, I'm gonna lose it 716 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: because he was this guy to Brett Are. He can't that, 717 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: he can't have an attitude about this at all. And 718 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: if he does, shame on him. I'll ever forget how 719 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: piste Off Jordan loves girlfriend looked when she got the 720 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: news they're going to Green Bay one. Yeah, she was 721 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: so upset, exactly. She was like, Oh, I'm going to 722 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and Mike you you know, my boyfriend is 723 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: gonna be a big star in l A and he's 724 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: gonna be the Chargers quarterback or whatever. Now you're going 725 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 1: to Green Bay to sit on the bench. I hope 726 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 1: you enjoy Country Kitchen. For the tallest buildings are water towers. 727 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 1: Got it, Brian spent a lot of fun. The rest 728 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,479 Speaker 1: of the draft will be a ton of fun. Next 729 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 1: week's show will break down the rest of the draft, 730 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: not every single player like we did this time. She 731 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: can't too many players, but the notable players that came 732 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: out of rounds two through seven will be the next show. 733 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: I believe it will be Matt Harrison's turn up to 734 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 1: bat right. Sounds about it right. I think that sounds 735 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: about right. We'll probably have Matt Harrison on the show 736 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: for that.
