And hopefully we're getting closer 8 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: to the NFL going to training camp and begin to 9 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: have a little football. Yeah, I hope. So, man, fingers 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: are crossed at all levels, um high school level, the 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: college level, and the professional level. My son is Uh. 12 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: They've actually started doing some conditioning stuff, so they started 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: this week, which they are very uh detailed in terms 14 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: of they have kind of their groups of five guys. 15 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,919 Speaker 1: Everybody brings your own water bottle, uh, you know, your 16 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: own bag with the stuff that you need, and then 17 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: they kind of put them out in on the field 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: and they're just doing like stations, you know. So it's 19 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: just and no ball, all right, no football. Yeah, they're 20 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: not lifting weights, so they're not touching weights. But man, 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: it's a it's a grind of conditioning of you know, 22 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: up downs and change of direction and box drills and 23 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: you know all that stuff they're doing on the field. 24 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 1: But I'll be honest with you, He's like, man, this 25 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: is a lot of work. But I'm like, man, I'm 26 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: just glad you get doing something. You know, like it's 27 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: been so long just to be able to get out 28 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: there and do something. We'll take it. Yeah, No, it's 29 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: it's it's it's funny because, um, at the school where 30 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: I coach that we have been forced to kind of 31 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: do everything via Zoom. So, um, I think we're nine 32 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: weeks into a workout plan that we've done on Zoom, 33 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: just body weight stuff like by the way, squats, vertical jumps, uh, 34 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: push ups, all kinds of app stuff or whatever, and 35 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: then we asked the guys to kind of do the 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: running on their own. We give them a running plan, 37 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: so we do that three days a week. The other 38 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: three days, um, they're running on the O and then 39 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: they get one day off and so we'll see. But 40 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: like what you described in terms of your son, it 41 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: kind of reminds me of how we were introduced to 42 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: the game. And literally like literally you just did County 43 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: Fair and like those stations that you talk about. I 44 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: just remember my coach is talking about he get your ticket, 45 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: We're going to the fair. What fair? What are you talking? 46 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't se any fairs wheels. No, oh, this station, 47 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: we got up downs. This next station, get your ticket, 48 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: we're running over the bags. Oh, this is a sprint station. 49 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: So I think we're having to do some of that because, um, 50 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: you just challenge because I don't know how you can 51 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: lift waste unless you're one of those schools or places 52 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: that where you have an outdoor weight room, you know, 53 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: where you have the ability to put your weights outside. Yeah, 54 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: like it's you know, it's just one of those things 55 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: where you kind of have to do it. So everyone 56 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: is kind of improvising. And so we'll see because it 57 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: seems like things are a little further along down in 58 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: San Diego in l A County. Um, it's not. Everything's 59 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: kind of been halted in terms of workouts or whatever. 60 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: So we're just kind of see what this looks like 61 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: because I don't know if anyone knows how this is 62 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: going to play out. Yeah, I mean, look and and 63 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: we're just spitballing here, But doesn't it feel like high 64 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: school football in California? I mean, spring is probably our 65 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: best bet. I think it kind of seems like it 66 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: kind of seems like that like when you started factoring 67 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: in the public schools, It just seems like a January start, 68 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: like somewhere in the spring is kind of it's going 69 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: to be where your football starts. But I think it 70 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: brings up an interesting thing because you know, like I know, 71 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: the high bed of Southern California football. Um, there are 72 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: a lot of four or five star players that will 73 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: have to make a decision because they were planning to 74 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: be early in rolees. So what does that mean? Do 75 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: they just opt out of their final season in high 76 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: school go right to college? They? I mean, like, but 77 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: you wanted because you have some of these guys who 78 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: would kind of set up everything to be able to 79 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: graduate in December so they could go join their colleges. 80 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: And I I just wanted that for a mantow buck. 81 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: And you're a high school coach, so you have a 82 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: unique perspective here. But that to me and David Shaw 83 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: is great to talk about this. He doesn't allow guys 84 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: to come early. He look, you're a high school were 85 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: for once in your life go to prom get a 86 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: graduation like don't miss out on those experiences. Everybody's in 87 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: a hurry to kind of get to the next thing. 88 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: And I think I agree with him on that. And 89 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: if kids are gonna miss their senior or of high 90 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: school football, I mean I I still have tons of 91 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 1: memories from my senior year in high school football. You know, 92 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: friends you keep up with to this day, those those 93 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: moments you share together kids, it's the last time you're 94 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: gonna get the chance to play with kids that you 95 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: went to kindergarten with. You know, you kind of all 96 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: grew up together. But even that's getting lost in this 97 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: whole transfer culture. We're positioning yourself to get to this 98 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: school so you can get seen by this coach. And 99 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: it's so driven by, you know, getting to college. And 100 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: I used to say, Okay, I understand it for the 101 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: kid that maybe doesn't have any offers. Maybe you're at 102 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: a smaller school, you have no offers, and you feel 103 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: like you just, you know, hey, I can't afford college. 104 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: I need to go someplace where I can get seen, 105 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: where I can potentially get one. That's not what anything. 106 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: All these kids are four and five star recruits and 107 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: they're still maneuvering around of different programs like explait, please 108 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: explain that to me. I can't explain it, DJ, I 109 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: can't explain it like um, Like, I'm at a public 110 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: school now, and I kind of understand the challenges of 111 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: the landscape where look, man, we can't offer what some 112 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: of the private schools can offer, Like, we can't give you, um, 113 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: some of the top notch facilities. We can't necessarily guarantee 114 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: you that you're going to play against and with some 115 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: of the best competition or whatever, where we can provide 116 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: you with an experience. However, there are people who are 117 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: treating the high school game like his business. It is 118 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: the launch bad. Yeah, it's to launch bad to my 119 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: NFL career before I get to college. So I need 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: to go to a big time high school. I need 121 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: to be seen, I need to be around a bunch 122 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: of four or five star players. And then I'm going 123 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: to go to a college. I'm gonna go early. I'm 124 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: a plan to be there three and a half years, 125 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: and then I'm moving on to the National Football League. 126 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,239 Speaker 1: And for like a small, very small minority of players, 127 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: that could be a proper blueprint, but the overwhelming majority 128 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: of guys aren't going to play in the National Football League. 129 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: Most of them won't get an opportunity to play major 130 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: college football, and so the high school experience should be 131 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: what that is and like a real pure and fun 132 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: experience where look, you develop those those trades and characteristics 133 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: that help you beyond the game. You know, to help 134 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: you become a good person in the community, that helps 135 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: you become a good person at home, helps you become 136 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: a leader, uh in your house and out in the community. 137 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: And if you are fortunate enough to go to college 138 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: and do all those other things, look, man, it's another 139 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: opportunity to have four or five years of life lessons 140 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: to help shape you as a young person. But you know, 141 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: everything is fast forward. And I feel bad because we've 142 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: talked about the specialization and all those other things. I 143 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: just feel bad for the kids that don't have the 144 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to kind of dip their toe in a bunch 145 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: of different waters like oh, football season, basketball season, baseball 146 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: or track. Uh hey, let me try and do all 147 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: these things, because when you get to college, you don't 148 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: get a chance to do all of that. Like, it 149 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: is a very singular and narrow focus when it comes 150 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: to it. So it's unfortunate But like, man, I it's 151 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: hard for me to say that A is going to 152 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: ever go back to how it was yesteryear. You played 153 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 1: at the ultimate level. Book, you played in National Football League, 154 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: and I played in college. But I can just compare 155 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: the college experience of the high school experience. You can 156 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: have the history to be able to compare all three. 157 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: But I've you know, I've played in big college games, 158 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: I've played in eighty thousand people and all that kind 159 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: of stuff. I've never had more fun than with my 160 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: friends that I grew up with, that I've known literally 161 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: since I could pee, you know, learn how to pee 162 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: in a toilet. Um, those have been my friends for 163 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: twelve years. Like we grew up together. And when we 164 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: would play our rival school, like we went to Christianize, 165 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: we played Maryan Catholic, that's our rival. And to play 166 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: in those games with your friends against guys you've been 167 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: playing against since you know, middle school, Like, those are 168 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: memories that these guys are all just foregoing all that stuff. 169 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: And I don't even think it's necessary. Man, Like you 170 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: already got it, You've already got your scholarship offers. You 171 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: already know you're gonna go on and play in college. 172 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: It's gonna be an adjustment. You'll make the adjustment if 173 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: you have the red shirt. It's not the end of 174 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: the world. But they're missing out on so many these 175 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: good memories and experiences I had. I don't know. I 176 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: don't like it. Man, No, that's a different time, DJ, 177 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: I can. I can tell you this, and it's funny. Um, 178 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 1: just a peek into how I used to think at 179 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: high school. I went to Millbrook High School in Raleigh, 180 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: North Carolina, and the big deal for me was just 181 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: to see my name in the paper, right like you 182 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: had to. I remember in basketball you had to score 183 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: ten points to get your full name in the box school. 184 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: If you didn't score ten points, you would only get 185 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: like your last name. So I remember in basketball at 186 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: that being big. I remember in football like, obviously you 187 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: wanted to get a picture in the paper. You want 188 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: to score touchdowns, you want to kind of get a 189 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: headline and those things. And I remember the big goal 190 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: because I used to write all my goals down on 191 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: like this little folder that I would get from this 192 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver camp. And one of my goals was like, hey, 193 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: I want to be in the news and deserber uh 194 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: all Region team All East, Like, that's that was the 195 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: big deal. You didn't think about All American. I mean 196 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 1: maybe you thought about All State, but the big thing 197 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: was I wanted to be all conference and if I 198 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: could be all Region, that was like a big deal. 199 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: And so to come from that to now the Internet 200 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 1: has opened up the world and everyone wants to be 201 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: like a army all American. Uh, you want to play 202 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: an under armored game, or you want to do all 203 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: these other things or whatever. And I get it, like 204 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: you should have lofty dreams and ambitions, but I think 205 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: we lose out on some of the essence of what 206 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: high school football is. High school football is an opportunity to, 207 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 1: as you say, play with your buddies, represent your neighborhood, 208 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: um make lasting memories with the rival game at Millbrook 209 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: Arrival was Garner High School. Anthony Barber was a big 210 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: time player that they want to stay title. And I 211 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: remember those games. I vividly remember those games, and I 212 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: still say this, There's nothing like Friday night lights. There's 213 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: nothing like going to school with your jersey on that day, 214 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: having a pregame meal, walking out in pregame stretched like 215 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: all of those other things, and then playing the game 216 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 1: Friday night, and then if it was homecoming or whatever, 217 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: the dance afterwards. Man, there's nothing that can can top 218 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: those things. And like, look, I I'm friends with a 219 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: bunch of my guys from high school on Facebook and 220 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: those things, and you see them and some of their 221 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: kids now go to the high school and they still 222 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: have the same traditions, and so it's tough because we 223 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: kind of lost some of that that since some of 224 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: that sense of community in high school. Yeah, anyways, I 225 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: just we weren't even planning on talking about that. I 226 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: just I was thinking about my son working out, and 227 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: then this whole the whole culture of everything. I'm okay, 228 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: if they want to do the game, if they want 229 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: to high school football in the spring, I mean, they 230 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: could do it in March April May. I mean at 231 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: the very push it all the way back. Obviously you'd 232 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: have issues with baseball and you know, I have all 233 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: those sports kind of going on at once, and you know, 234 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: you wouldn't be able to play all those different sports. 235 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: But if that gets you know, if that gets cheerleaders 236 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: and fans in the stands and and it makes it 237 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: like a real high school, you know, experience I find 238 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: by me. Man, I'm good with that. Yeah, I am. 239 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm good with it too. Like I just want the 240 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: young people to be able to have like that stuff 241 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: because I feel uh crushed for all the guys who 242 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: didn't have an opportunity to finish their baseball, their spring seasons. 243 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't have a prom, didn't have a 244 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: real graduation. Everything was virtue will Um. I would like 245 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: them to have that experience. For the overwhelming majority of them, 246 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: that's the last time they're gonna play competitive sports uh 247 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: and be around people, uh, to be kind of the 248 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: center of attention and those things before they go about 249 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: living a civilian lifestyle. So I would I would just 250 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: like them to have the opportunity, even if it's an 251 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 1: abbreviated season, I just want them to have an opportunity 252 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: to kind of enjoy it for one last time, no doubt, 253 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: I'm with you. UM, all right, this is what we're 254 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: doing today, and I'll give you kind of the origin 255 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: of of why we arrived at this topic. I was, um, 256 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: I was doing a radio interview the other day and 257 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: I kind of asked about I was in Utah and 258 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: they asked me about you know, what I think about 259 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: where their guys landed. I know, you know, you taught 260 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: a ton of guys drafted this last year. You know, 261 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: what do you think about the fits? And I started 262 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: thinking about I'm rapping my brand and go okay, man, 263 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: the draft is in April. That's been a minute. I've 264 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: started watching guys for this next year's draft class. And 265 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: then I could not remember in my mind like who 266 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: went where in the draft, And so I started thinking 267 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: about them, like, well, we've had no O T A. S. 268 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: You've had no rookie camp, like out of all this 269 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: off season, out of the spring, we would always hear 270 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: about this guy was popping him, this guy looks like 271 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: he could start. Man, he's gonna nudge out this veteran 272 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: he's you know, maybe this guy struggled a little bit. 273 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: Remember like Lamar Jackson. They were saying, oh you couldn't 274 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, it couldn't throw a spiral and was struggling early. 275 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 1: There's all these storylines that every year emerged out of spring. 276 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: We don't have any of those this year. So these 277 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: these rookies have kind of been out of sight, out 278 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: of mind. And I was thinking, almost like if you 279 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: were taking a course, um, and you'd say, Okay, this 280 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,599 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a review week, Like we're just 281 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: gonna go back and review and go over what we 282 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: did earlier in the semester. I thought it'd be kind 283 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: of fun just to kind of review the first round 284 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: of the draft and try and remind ourselves where all 285 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: these guys went. You know, I think it's a good 286 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: idea because I think we have kind of lost sight 287 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: of where guy's going because you and I've already talked 288 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: about next year's class and the group of guys that 289 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: are that are um potentially coming into the league in 290 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: one draft, and so we have kind of forgotten about 291 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: the uh half class, where you guys are going, what 292 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: to expect of them even in the pandemic and the 293 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: the I mean, I guess the non existent offseason when 294 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: it comes to their on the field work. Yeah, so 295 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: I think it is a good time to kind of 296 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: take a look at some of the guys that were 297 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: drafted in the first round and just kind of talk 298 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: about what we liked about them when they were coming 299 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: out and how we see them fitting. Yeah, let's let's 300 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: roll through it here. Man, We'll just kind of go 301 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: we only spend a lot of time on each one, 302 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: but just kind of again just a reminder of where 303 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: all these guys went uh and what to expect from. 304 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: So we start there at the top Joe Burrow and 305 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals buck Um with no offseason. I I still 306 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: think he's the Week one starter, do you Yeah? I 307 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: think he's the breaking onest part and I actually think 308 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: he is going to be set up to have success. 309 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: When you look at the Cincinnati Bengals, I know people 310 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: like to kind of um really dump on them and 311 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: talk about how they don't have much going on. But 312 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: when I look at this offense, I think Joe Burrows 313 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: should be successful from day one. Joe Mixon is a 314 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: guy that had over a thousand yards rushing, one of 315 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: the top running backs in the league. If a j 316 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: Green it's healthy, you now have a tandon with him 317 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: and Tyler Boyd that can create problems. The offensive line 318 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: is a bit of a question mark, but they get 319 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: Jonah Williams back. If Jonah Williams plays at a high 320 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: level like they that gives them a decent offensive line. 321 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: And if Zach Taylor is really committed to doing what 322 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: he said he wanted to do, with Joe Burrow, which 323 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: has meet him halfway, kind of take some of those 324 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: concepts from L. S U and let him kind of 325 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: spread it out and play the game that he's always 326 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: played as a pass first point guard. There's no reason 327 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: why Joe Burrow can't hit the ground running as a 328 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: rookie starter. Yeah, spread and shred, right, That's what you 329 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: said a while ago. I've I've adopted it. I think 330 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: that's what you'll see there. Get him comfortable, get everybody 331 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: out in the route, and go um all right, Washington 332 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: Redskins Chase Young, Uh, they got that in our you know, 333 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: I think we both had him as the top player 334 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: in the draft. With when you look at that defensive front, 335 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: we've talked a lot about the five first rounders. A 336 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: similarity there with the forty niners. When you look at 337 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: their defensive line, is it would you say it's the 338 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: best defensive line in the division When you look at 339 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: that group, I mean, I think they're right there with Philadelphia. 340 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: I think Philadelphia has more experience with Fletcher Cox and 341 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham and those guys. Jron Hargrave like there. But look, 342 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: they're they're pushing in terms of just raw talent. They 343 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: have a ton of talent. Five first round is amongst 344 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: that defensive line rotation. Uh they have Montes Sweat, uh 345 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: Doron Payne. You think about Jonathan Allen and Ryan carrigaan, 346 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: but Chase Young is the final piece. He's kind of 347 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: like the cherry on top of the Sunday when you 348 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: hear Ron Rivera and Jack del Rio made the comparisons, 349 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: did Julius Peppers and Von Miller? Well, when you look 350 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: at the impact that those guys had, a couple of 351 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: years after those guys joined the squad, they went to 352 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. Now the Washington Ridskins have a lot 353 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: of stuff to do to make that dream become a reality. 354 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: But Chase Young is a dominant player, and you put 355 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: him on that line where he may get more one 356 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: on ones. There is no reason why he shouldn't have 357 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: double digit sex really really early in his career. Yeah, 358 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: I think I would still probably lean towards Philadelphia, like 359 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: you said, the experience there. But that's that defensive front 360 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: is gonna have to carry the Washington Redskins, all right. 361 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: The Detroit Lions took a couta. Remember the debate at 362 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: the draft was a Kuda versus Derek Brown. There's a 363 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: lot of buzz and maybe they would take Derek Brown, 364 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: they end up going to Kuda um And I remember 365 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: at the time we discussed the the kind of philosophical 366 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: uh side of things with Patricia coming under Belichick, which 367 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: is he builds actually you know, outside in versus inside 368 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: out and working on the secondary and putting your resources 369 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: there versus the front. Yeah, when you look at it, 370 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: and obviously look is not a coincidence that Matt Patricia 371 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: was in New England for a long time. He has left, 372 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: but he is seeing Stefan Gilmore emerged and evolved into 373 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: the defensive player of the year. He has seen how 374 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: with Stephan Gilmore they've been able to kind of lock 375 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: him up on a person and maybe double team on 376 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: the other side, or just play man to man all 377 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: over the field. The Detroit Lions are a team that 378 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: lives in man to man coverage. Jeffrey Couta is a 379 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: guy that can play man as well as anybody, but 380 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: he can do it in a variety of different ways. Uh. 381 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: To think about it with Acuda, I think, uh, the 382 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: comparison to Gilmore is at because I don't know if 383 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: I find Gilmore is what I call an A plus athlete, 384 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: meaning he's gonna check off all of these high level 385 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: boxes as an elite athlete when it comes to speed, explosive, 386 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: this uh leaping ability and I don't think Jeffrey Couda 387 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: is at but what both guys are, they're very detailed 388 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: and thorough technicians. When you watch them, it is like 389 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: watching clinic clinic tape. They're tough, they're tackle, they're do 390 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: those things. That is always going to give a couta 391 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 1: chance to be a high level player. UM I liked 392 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: him a lot. You know, It's it's tough because I 393 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: don't know if they have enough pass rush for him 394 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: to hold up on that island all bound stuff in 395 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: that division. But I think they got a good one. 396 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: We'll just see how Matt Patricia is able to kind 397 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: of integrate him into the lineup and kind of put 398 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: him in a position to succeed. All right. Andrew Thomas 399 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: to the New York Giants. UM I did not have 400 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: him as the top tackle, but he's the one who 401 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: had the most experience, you know, playing at a solid 402 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: level in the SEC for three years. UM. I think 403 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: he's kind of a steady Eddie. I didn't think he's 404 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: you know, I view him as a big time you know, 405 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna emerge as a top five talent in the NFL. 406 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: Maybe you will, but I didn't have him there. But 407 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 1: I thought from a floor standpoint, a very high floor 408 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: kind of fit the Dave Gentleman profile there with the Giants. Yeah. Absolutely, Look, 409 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: he's kind of a brand name, right, He's a brand 410 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: name because he played at a big school in SEC, 411 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: had very solid tape, Like it wasn't necessarily like outstanding, 412 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: but it was solid. You know exactly what you're getting. 413 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: And I think for the Giants and Dave Gentleman and 414 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: where they are in their rebuilding process, they just want 415 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: to make sure that as we've talked about it, like look, man, 416 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: if you can get on base, if you can hit doubles, 417 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: you can win a lot of games. And so I 418 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: think right now they were playing for the double. They 419 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: could have swung for defenses and maybe taking a better 420 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 1: and more explosive athlete and mica I Beckton or even 421 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: looked at Jeddrick Wills, But for them, I think they 422 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: wanted safe. They opted for safe and taking times and 423 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: that's why he goes in the top five, even though 424 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: many many of us didn't expect him to be a 425 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: top five pick. Interesting thing, I didn't even thought about 426 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 1: this until right now when you look at this year 427 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: when they took DeAndre Baker out of Georgia and DeAndre 428 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: Baker struggled, and then DeAndre Baker the immaturity issues that 429 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: you heard about that kind of cropped up a little 430 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: bit here in the off season. I wonder what kind 431 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: of relationship Andrew Thomas has with him going back to 432 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: their days at Georgia, and if maybe he could be 433 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: a good influence on him, because by all counts, Andrew Thomas, 434 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: the character and everything was was solid. Yeah, that Scaracter 435 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: is outstanding. He saw that you. I mean, you're talking 436 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 1: about someone they talked about playing in the band and 437 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: having a love of musical instruments and all that other 438 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: stuff are very mature, uh kid. I think the thing 439 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: with DeAndre Baker and you wanted because like it kind 440 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: of goes against it because I didn't view DeAndre Baker 441 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: as a safe pick a season ago, Like I was 442 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: slow to warm up to him if I ever warmed 443 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: up to him as a player. Um, I think that 444 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: also played a part in the process, like they kind 445 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: of maybe swung for the fences a little bit with 446 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 1: DeAndre Baker, thinking that he would be something that was Yeah, 447 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: so they took a bit of a chance. I think 448 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: in the top five they wanted to make sure that 449 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: they got it, that they didn't mess up. And I 450 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: think that's why David Gettleman kind of leaned towards Andrew 451 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: Thomas in this process. All Right, we get to to 452 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: five and six, we get the quarterbacks to a Taco 453 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: vloa to the Dolphins. The Chargers follow that up with 454 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. Uh. Look, man, the to a pick is 455 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: is interesting because of everything that we heard about with 456 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: the injury history. Right, Um, is he healthy? Canny do it? 457 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 1: He had the kind of workout, thessimulated workout where we 458 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: saw him move around a little bit, we saw him 459 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: throw the ball, and I think people fall in love 460 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: with I think the Dolphins filling up with the personality. 461 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 1: I still believe this when he's healthy and right. To me, 462 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: he's a left handed version of Drew Brees and turns 463 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: of the way the ball comes out, the way he's 464 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: able to kind of play the game, and I connected 465 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: that's fashion. I think the bigger thing will be Kenny 466 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: be Canny become a durable player, a player that can 467 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: line up each and every week, play sixteen games. You 468 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: were down there with the Charges, man Philip rivers two 469 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: hundred plus starts. Um Eli Manning being able to suit 470 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: up two hundred plus times like the A level quarterbacks 471 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: show up each and every week they take the ball, 472 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: and so can too, would be a guy that shows 473 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 1: that he can be a durable, dependable, and high level 474 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: player for the Miami Dolphins. Dad is the biggest question 475 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: mark that will will happen because I think the town 476 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 1: is there is just a dour building and I get 477 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: to Justin Herbert here with the with the Chargers, I 478 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 1: would anticipate we're gonna see Tyrod Taylor unless Justin Herbert 479 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: just blows everybody away in camp, which is gonna be 480 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: challenging with the limited offseason, I think they have an 481 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: acceptable option there with Taylor, So I anticipate Herbert we 482 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,959 Speaker 1: see him maybe in the back half of the season. 483 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: Um But I do think it's a good fit with 484 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: this scheme, It's gonna be a different looking offense for 485 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: the Charger's gonna it's gonna resemble a lot more of 486 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: that Shanahan scheme that Anthony Lynn played in. Shane Styke 487 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: can'll be calling the place, but you'll see a lot 488 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: more quarterback movement. And I do think, um, you know, 489 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: if Justin Herbert could kind of cherry pick a place 490 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 1: to go, I think this will be someplace he can 491 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: be comfortable, UH and have a chance to to succeed. 492 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: But I do think you gotta be a little patient there. Yeah, 493 00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: I think you have to be a patient. But also 494 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: think this system, if done correctly, have done in the 495 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: way that Shanahan and even Sean McVeigh have been able 496 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: to do it. H It elevates the play of the quarterback. 497 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: And so for Justin Herbert, I think this is the 498 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: perfect marriage because I think they will create an offense 499 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: that has a lot of play action passes, UH, some 500 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: movement based passes that put him on the move. He 501 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: was kind of underutilizing that aspect at Oregon. I think 502 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: he can be what we call a highly efficient game manager. 503 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if he would be the takeover type, 504 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 1: meaning like a Pat Mahomes type, but I do believe 505 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: he can do what the guy that played against UH 506 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes did, Jimmy Garoppolo high level, high high level 507 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: of efficiency in terms of getting the ball to the 508 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: playmakers and being able to win a ton of games. 509 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert to me, has that kind of ceiling. He's 510 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 1: not what I would call maybe like a five star player, 511 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: but I certainly think he's a four star player that 512 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 1: can certainly get them to the Winter Circle. Yeah, since 513 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: we have baseball on the brain. With baseball coming back here, 514 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: I kind of think the Chargers offense is going to 515 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: be more of a or you know, they're they're winning formula, 516 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: is going to be more of a we're not gonna 517 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: make errors, We're gonna throw strikes, We're gonna take bases, 518 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna take the extra base. If we have to 519 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: move a guy over, we're gonna move him over. And 520 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna kind of grind out games, whereas the Kansas 521 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: City Chiefs are gonna play for the three run homer, 522 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 1: you know, like trying. Yeah, that's a big boy ball 523 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: that way. Yeah. Like I think the Charges are like 524 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: the old school Atlanta Braves, Like they're Maddox and Glavin 525 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: and Smalls and they're gonna throw strikes, they're gonna minimize 526 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 1: keep you in every or keep you in every game. 527 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: And like there's an old saying more games are lost 528 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: than one, meaning that more teams give it away by 529 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: being aggressive and turning over the ball. And I think 530 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,640 Speaker 1: what you're gonna see from the charges is, Hey, we're 531 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: going to make you beat us by not giving you 532 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 1: easy opportunities, not turning the ball over, not being uh 533 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: super short fields. Yeah, like we're gonna play it the 534 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: right way. And so I think with Justin Herbert, I 535 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 1: think he is certainly cable of being able to play 536 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: that styut because that's the style that he played at Orgon. Alright, 537 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 1: a couple of defenders here at seven and eight, and 538 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: this was the decision for the Carolina Panthers. We thought 539 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: they might go Isaiah Simmons. They ended up going Derek Brown, 540 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: the defensive tackle at Auburn. Isaiah Simmons then turns around 541 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: goes to the Arizona Cardinals with the eighth pick. Uh 542 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: Derek Look, Derrick Brown was the most disruptive player that 543 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: that I saw on tape. Inside he terrorized people. And 544 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: the way the game is going, you have to have 545 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: two pass rushers, one inside, one outside. I know people 546 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 1: will talk about Derek Brown's lack of sack production, but 547 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: his disruption showed up on tape. He is a very 548 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,439 Speaker 1: disruptive defender, plays hard. You don't see guys that are 549 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: three plus pounds that run all over the field like 550 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: he runs with the NonStop motor. I think he's gonna 551 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: be a good one. Um. And I understand why Matt 552 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: Rule opted for that. When you're trying to integrate and 553 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: build up your culture, you want people that embody what 554 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: you talk about when you stand in front of the meeting. 555 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: Matt Rule has talked on our show about I want hardworking, tough, 556 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: and competitive. Well, when you look at Derrick Brown, check 557 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: check check, he does all those things. Yeah. And I 558 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: look at him lining up next to Brian Burns, who 559 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,959 Speaker 1: had a good rookie year. Uh. And I always go 560 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: back to, you know, one of the dominant defenses that 561 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: I don't think people reference a lot, Uh, that that 562 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty niner team that lost in the Super Bowl. 563 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: But that that team for those four or five years 564 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: with Hardball, in those early years when they had Justin 565 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: Smith and Alden Smith lined up next to each other, 566 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: that was I mean, they terrorize people. And I think 567 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: when you can find that combination of a dominant defensive 568 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: tackle put him next to an edge rusher, that's gonna 569 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: give people problems. And I like that young nucleus. They 570 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: have their line, those guys up next to each other 571 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: and pick your poison on the offensive line. Yeah, if 572 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: they're athletic enough to run those games. Because you talked 573 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: about San Francisco forty nine crew, Justine Smith and Altos 574 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: Smith's gay people problems because they're Rundo's simple t e stunts. 575 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: Justine Smith would come up to field, Autos Smith would 576 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: come up under. He did a great job of really 577 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: creating opportunities for Autos Smith to rack up a ton 578 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: of sacks. And if you go back Aunt Smith those 579 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: first three years, I mean you talk about like a numbers, 580 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: like big, big sack numbers, and a lot of that 581 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: had to do with his ability, but also Justin Smith's 582 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: ability to set him up. Darry Brown will set him up. 583 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: In terms of set up, I think the Arizona Cardinals 584 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: have to be careful with how they deploy asays Simmons, 585 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: so they can set him up for success. He is 586 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 1: a very talented player. He can play in the back end, 587 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: he can play a new the line of scrimmage. How 588 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: does Van Joseph use him? Because you have so many skills, 589 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: so many tools in the toolbox, you gotta make sure 590 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: you give him the opportunity to use the right tool 591 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: in the right situation. I think that is the biggest 592 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: challenge because there's no doubt about his talent, but the deployment. 593 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: How did they deploy him? How would they utilize him? Well, 594 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 1: I think if you look at kind of the the 595 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: guy you have to worry about when you play Seattle 596 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: is Russell Wilson. So and that in those two games 597 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna use him to mirror him and uh and 598 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: try and inspire Russell Wilson and be able to chase 599 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: him down in space. When you play the forty Niners, 600 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: you gotta deal with George Kittle. That's who you gotta stop. 601 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: So in those two games you gotta I think you'll 602 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: see him matched up a bunch and he'll get a 603 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: chance to cover George Kittle. You know the Rams. In 604 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: the past, it would have been Todd Gurley. He's not 605 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: there anymore. We'll see what this, you know, kind of 606 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: new version of the Rams offense looks like, but they 607 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: run a lot of outside zone. So just having that 608 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: range in that sideline to sideline speed will benefit him there. 609 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: So I do think it's a delicate balance in terms 610 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 1: of not giving him too much. But I do think 611 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: inside that division you can customize, you know, the playlist, 612 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,479 Speaker 1: so to speak for him, Well, yeah, and I think 613 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: that's the way that you have to do. I think 614 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: this year, unlike any other year, I think simple is better. 615 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: I think the ability to simplify and really create opportunities 616 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: for your young players has to be Um has to 617 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: be at the forefront, has to be the priority. You 618 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: gotta make it where those guys can play fast and 619 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: they can make an impact. Yeah, that's that's gonna be, 620 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, kind of a plan for him in this 621 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: upcoming season. All right, let's get to the rest of 622 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,880 Speaker 1: the top ten. Here, what's two guys. C. J. Henderson 623 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:48,239 Speaker 1: to Jacksonville the corner and then Jedrick will Is the tackle. Uh, 624 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: the second tackle off the board to the Cleveland Browns. C. J. 625 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: Henderson to me is interesting because, uh, some would say 626 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: that he was a late rise of the process. There 627 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: was legitimate conversation about whether it's c. J. Henderson and 628 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: Jeff Okuda in several meeting rooms. When I look at C. J. Henderson, 629 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: the thing about him UM very natural and his ability, 630 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: UH smooth and fluid athlete, his ability to transition and 631 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: and kind of play a variety of techniques with a 632 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: press or off. All those things I liked. I liked 633 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: his physicality very early in the year when it came 634 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: to playing bump coverage. The thing that everyone is going 635 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 1: to talk about is he going to up the end 636 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: when it comes to his physicality when tackling on the perimeter. 637 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: The one thing that has to happen now in the 638 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: National Football League, your corners have to be sure and 639 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 1: willing tacklers. And so we have to see if c. J. 640 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: Henderson is going to embrace that part of the job description. 641 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: Can he come up and thump when they asked him 642 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: to thump in the ring game? Yeah? And I think 643 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: when you look at that division, and that's a division 644 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: where you've got some teams that want to run the football, 645 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: like the Indianapolis coach with their offensive line. Look at 646 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans obviously with what they've done. Um, so 647 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna challenge his corners to tackle, so he's got 648 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: to do better in that department. But the physical skills 649 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: are are outstanding. Um I do think there's a little 650 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: bit of assembly required. I don't think he's one of 651 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: those guys we say come in clear packaging where you 652 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: know exactly what you're getting. I do think there's some 653 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: development to take place there. But the the foundation of 654 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: what you have to work with is outstanding. Um So 655 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:15,479 Speaker 1: he's got to coach him up and get it out 656 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: of him. Then the Cleveland Browns with Willis, with Eddrick Wills, 657 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: you know it's gonna be interesting with them when you 658 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: have two new tackles right with him and Jack Conklind. 659 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: So getting those guys comfortable, getting them in a new 660 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: system with a new coaching staff, and will Is trying 661 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,479 Speaker 1: to make that jump up to the next level. I 662 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: believe in his ability, but I would caution that there 663 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: could be some rough moments just because of all the 664 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: change and the newness here without the off season, and 665 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: the spot that he's in in a division where you 666 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: see some dudes now. Um So, that to me is 667 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: is gonna be one where I would just caution Browns 668 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: fans don't freak out if he gives up a couple 669 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: of sacks early in the season, I think you'll see 670 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: him get better. Yeah, I think you will see him 671 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 1: get better. I think the big thing for him and 672 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: his improvement will be how how much the Browns elect 673 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: to use twelve personnel, two tight ends, one back to 674 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: tight end on the field, to wide receivers, Because if 675 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: they use two tight ends on the field, they can 676 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 1: really provide him with some kind of help with either 677 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: chip body help. They can kind of change, uh, the 678 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: approach and kind of help him out without the off season, 679 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: You're right, going from right tackle the left tackle could 680 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 1: be a transition. But man, I just think he's so 681 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: natural that what he does. Um, I think he will 682 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: figure it out. I do believe early in the season 683 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: is very important that they protect him. So I think 684 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: you will see a lot. One. You can see a 685 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: lot of play action passed from Kevin Stefanski anyway, But two, 686 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: I think you need to see a lot of that 687 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: play action passing game early to kind of nullify some 688 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 1: of the pass rush from the opposition by making them 689 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: slow down and respect the running game. All right, let's 690 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: go every other one now, So I'll give you one 691 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: that I'll follow up on just what just ping pong 692 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: and we'll get we'll pick up the pace here as 693 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: we're outside the top ten, I'll give you the floor first. 694 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: Mackay becked in to the Jets. Look man, big body, 695 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: uh Sam Donald needed a protector. I did think they 696 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: also needed some nasty this in a tempo set on 697 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: the defensive line. I am surprised that he landed outside 698 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,959 Speaker 1: of the top ten. But the New York Jests got 699 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: a good one in my estimation when they got Mackay Beckton. Yeah, 700 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders at twelve, they take Henry Ruggs, 701 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: the first receiver off the board. We talked about that 702 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: being a possibility. It was not just a race between 703 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: Cede Lamb and Jerry Judy, and sure enough, Rugs leap 704 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: frog both of them. I I look at this pick 705 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: with the Raiders and I go back to the big 706 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: benefactor being his former college teammate in the run game 707 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: there and Josh Jacobs. He's gonna be able to run 708 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: safeties out of there. You've got Waller, the tight end 709 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: who runs four four. You've got two guys inside and outside, 710 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: one inside, one outside. You're gonna be able to to 711 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: run coverage off. It's gonna create more room for Josh Jacobs. 712 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: So if you do the fantasy football thing, get Josh 713 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: Jacobs early. Yeah, I think you have to get Josh 714 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: Jacob's earlier. I just want to see if Derek Carr 715 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: can mess with that because he's more of a Dincon 716 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: dunk past. He doesn't really push the ball down the field. 717 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: We'll see if they can get maximum value from Henry 718 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: Ruggs at thirteen. The tam Bay Buccaneers and Tristan Works. 719 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: I was a big Triest and Worse fan. I like 720 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: his combination of side strength and athleticism. I like technical 721 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: savvy h the fact that he is really a high 722 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: level athlete, Like this is a guy that was dominant 723 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: in high school not only as a wrestler, but as 724 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,479 Speaker 1: a shot and disthrower. State championship level um. I think 725 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: you see those traits when he plays, and I think 726 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: for Tom Brady, for Tom Brady to play well, the 727 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers have to protect him. I would like 728 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: to see them upgrade a running game. They don't necessarily 729 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: have the running back to do that, so Tristan Worst 730 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: is going to have to be on his game as 731 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: a past protector, and I love the wrestling background with 732 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: offensive lineman as well. All right, fourteen the Niners, this 733 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: is the pick. Remember they trade the Forest Buckner to 734 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: the Colts, they get this pick. They end up replacing 735 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: the Forest Buckner with Javon kin Law from South Carolina. Um. Well, 736 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: I'll say about Ken Law buck before he shut it 737 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: down at the Senior Bowl. Um. I mean that was 738 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: kind of the exclamation point on him as a prospect. 739 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: They couldn't really block him down there in mobile, long, lean, lean, 740 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: athletic physical Uh. The strength empower kind of pops and look, man, 741 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: I think he's a guy that is highly motivated. I 742 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: think that that inspiration and motivation this place shows when 743 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: he's on the field. Uh. Fifteen the Denver Broncos took 744 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: Jerry Judy uh to pair up with Uh. Eventually kJ 745 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: Hamdler to give Drew locks and weapons on the outside. 746 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: And DJ, I don't know, I know you went dark 747 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: on social media for a while, but j G has 748 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: been posting these videos where he is working out. Man. 749 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: Whatever you thought about him as a as a route runner, 750 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: add a plus to it his ability to use hesitation 751 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: stop and start. Suddenness and quickness is outstanding. I think 752 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna be a terrific player, and if they move 753 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: him to the slot, he's gonna be a problem for 754 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: people because mc cortland suddening on the outside and maybe 755 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: kJ Hamdler playing on the outside on the other side 756 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: as a speed threat. Jerry Judy work in the middlefield 757 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: could be a handful for nickel defenders and linebackers easy 758 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: completions there for Drew Lock, He's gonna give him a 759 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: lot of easy completions, all right. The Atlanta Falcons A J. 760 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: Terrell Um thought there was a chance they could end 761 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: up trading up for C. J. Henderson. They didn't. They 762 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: stand pat but they end up getting a big, tall, long, 763 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: athletic corner and A J. Terrell a little bit earlier, 764 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: uh than I had him graded, But now I had 765 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: him as a first round player. He was in that mix, 766 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: so it wasn't a huge reach. And I think when 767 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: you look inside that division, specifically when you look at 768 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 1: what you have to deal with with Tampa Um and 769 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: then you also look at what you have to deal 770 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: with with Mike Thomas and New Orleans, having a big 771 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: corner is uh is not just a nice thing, it's 772 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: a necessity. And I think that that fits the build 773 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: there for the Falcons. Yeah, it does fit the build. 774 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 1: Like you have to build your team to win your division. 775 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: All of those big time wide receivers demand extra attention 776 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: and you have to have guys that can not only 777 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: play man to man, but they got to be able 778 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: to be physical enough to hold up against those big 779 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 1: bodies that dominate within the division. At seventeen, the Dallas 780 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: Cowboys take Ceedee Lamb, DJ and I we always talked 781 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: theoretically about a take the best player available, and that's 782 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: what the Dallas Cowboys did. Uh. They didn't stretch and 783 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: and reach for a position of need. They went and 784 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: got the best player. And I think Ceedee Lamb and 785 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: Dallas gives them an opportunity to really take that offense 786 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: and and and and take an offense that was already 787 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 1: really really good take it to another level. Because now 788 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: their loving personnel package with Ceedee Lamb, a Maori Cooper, 789 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup, Zekiel Elliott in the backfield. I know Blake 790 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: Darwin is just kind of like an unknown commodity at 791 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: tight end, but wow, that's a lot of weaponry. I 792 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: think you can say they have the best and most 793 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: explosive offense in that division, and that's gonna give them 794 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: a chance to maybe win the division because they can 795 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: really play offensive football and they can put points on 796 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 1: the board. I think they have a super Bowl caliber team, 797 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: I really do. And I love Ceedee Lamb. I love 798 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: to fit there. I think he's gonna be outstanding, and 799 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: I like the fact that he doesn't have any concerns 800 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 1: about rocking the eight. You want to throw the AD 801 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: eight on in Dallas. You've got some confidence and I 802 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: do like that, all right. Next, we talked about this 803 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: for a long time. Austin Jackson going to the Miami Dolphins. Uh, 804 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: you know, the question was would they take him with 805 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: this pick or would they wait for their third first rounder. 806 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: They had to upgrade that offensive line. They take two. 807 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 1: They needed some help there, and the tackles just went 808 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: flying off the board, as we would expect. Austin Jackson 809 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: had ups and downs at USC last year. A Jvanessa 810 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: got the best of him in the bowl game, but 811 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: very athletic. He's young, he's twenty years old. Um. You know. 812 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 1: The whole thing with donating bone marrow to his sister, 813 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: So he missed the offseason coming into his last year 814 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 1: at USC. You're betting on the future there. He was 815 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: not picked eighteen based off what he put on tape 816 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,640 Speaker 1: at USC. He was picked eighteenth based on what you 817 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: hope he can become. Yeah, DJ, and I think it's 818 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 1: important to know you mentioned a bone marrow surgery. Uh. 819 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: He said that that really impacted the way that he 820 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: played into the season, and so he never fully felt 821 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 1: right until about midway in the season when he said 822 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: he was fully recovered because he had this surgery late 823 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: in July. And so, look, I think we're gonna see 824 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: a better version of Austin Jackson and we saw at 825 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: SC during his final season. There's no doubt athletically he 826 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: has all the trades that you look for in a 827 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: high end left tackle. All right. Who we got next 828 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: to your buck? All right? So look, we gonna go 829 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 1: to nineteen. The Las Vegas Raiders took Damon Arnette and 830 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: that was a bit of a surprise. And it was 831 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: a bit of surprise because I don't think many people 832 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 1: had him grade at this high. Now. I liked Arnette, 833 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: saw him kind of as a fringe, uh, first rounder, 834 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: more like a second round player. But here's what I 835 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 1: like about him. I think he's pretty solid and how 836 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: he plays. From a technique standpoint, I think he has 837 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: those things. I think he's tough, he'll tackle on the perimeter. 838 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 1: He does a great job when he's kind of locked 839 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 1: up in man to man, does a really good job. Ideally, 840 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: in my mind, he's an ideal number two corner. I 841 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 1: don't know if he's number one, but look, sometimes in 842 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:26,879 Speaker 1: the draft you take a guy that has to be 843 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: the backside corner. I think he's a backside corner, and 844 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 1: if it put in the right role, I think he succeeded. 845 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: But if you're expecting him to be Nambi Aske, like 846 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 1: the Raiders have had those number one corners in the past, 847 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a Namti type. But I do 848 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: think he's a very very solid player. Yeah, a little 849 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: bit earlier than a lot of people had him, but 850 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: they they liked him. They like his toughness a lot, 851 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: so he fits in kind of what they're trying to 852 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: build there with the Raiders. Twenty Jags come back with 853 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: their second pick. They go back to the SEC. They 854 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: take Caleb and Chason, who is a phenomenal athlete. I know, Bucky, 855 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: you were a little bit low to warm up to 856 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 1: him just because the lack of production. Um, but I 857 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 1: think what you look at with them, this was kind 858 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,240 Speaker 1: of an upside pick. You know, again use the baseball analogy. 859 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 1: I feel like they kind of drafted the high school players. 860 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 1: When you look at C. J. Henderson and Calebon Chason, 861 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,680 Speaker 1: the all the ability in the world need a little 862 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: bit of development. You're betting on the com betting on 863 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: the upside. Uh, maybe a little bit lower floor, but 864 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: really high ceiling with the Jags. Two picks, you know. 865 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,479 Speaker 1: So I think here's what I like about the pick um. 866 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: I think it's important to not look at it picks 867 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 1: uh in a vacuum, just pick in team. I like 868 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: what they they put around him because now what you're 869 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: doing is you're putting Calebon Chasing opposite of Josh Allen. 870 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,359 Speaker 1: And I don't know how many people realize that Josh 871 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: Allen had ten sacks with the Jackson with Jaguars last 872 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: year as a rookie and he was just kind of 873 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 1: figuring it out. Well, now they removed some of the 874 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: players in that locker room. Marcello Darius Calias, Campbell, Stay, 875 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: having gock Way too, Buck Yeah, and they are entrusting 876 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: Josh Allen to be the leader of that in it 877 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,279 Speaker 1: up front, and then you talk about yannicking Gotkway. So 878 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: now you're talking about Caleb and Chasing potentially being either 879 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 1: a rotational player or a backside complimentary rusher. I like 880 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,760 Speaker 1: him in that role more so than a You're our guy. 881 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna be the number one pass rusher. We're depending 882 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 1: on you to be able to get double digits ass 883 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 1: to really set the table for the rest of the defense. 884 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: All Right, about the Eagles one, you know, like, look, 885 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 1: this is a tough one because this one has been 886 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: debated in all companies. Jalen Reagor um the fielder. Eagles 887 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 1: had to make a decision between Jalen Reagor and Justin Jefferson, 888 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: and I just firmly believe that this came down to 889 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: they wanted someone that could be a stretch to fuel guy, 890 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: so they went with Jalen Raker. The trick will be 891 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: can Reagor be consistent enough as a pass catcher to 892 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: give them what they want in that position. The biggest 893 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: thing that we've had the biggest issue we had with 894 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: the Eagles. One was a lack of speed, but to 895 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,760 Speaker 1: the lack of consistency when it comes to catching the ball. 896 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 1: Can it be a more consistent threat because the big 897 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 1: play potential is there, he has to contend assistantly catched 898 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: a board. Yeah, I mean that was the decision, really 899 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 1: outside guy versus an inside guy, and they felt comfortable 900 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: where they were on the inside, so they went and 901 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: got somebody on the outside that can really stretch the field. Um, 902 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: you get to Minnesota, they end up taking Justin Jefferson 903 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: right after that. Remember how fast they turned the card 904 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: in when he was there. They did not mess around 905 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: to get that one in. And I've gone on record, 906 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: you know that the wide receiver from l s U. 907 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: We have a mutual friend that that was around him, 908 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: that's been around a lot of great receivers, and he 909 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: gave him high, high praise. I'm on record as saying 910 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: I think his production and I said this thinking we 911 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: would have an offseason at the time, which we we 912 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: did not have, but I believe his production will eclipse 913 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 1: Tefon Diggs who left and went to the Buffalo Bills. 914 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: I really think Justin Jefferson is kind of made to 915 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: play with a guy like Kirk Cousins. When you look 916 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: at the success that Kirk had um in Washington and 917 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: the comfort level he had there, UM, I think you're 918 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: gonna see the same type of a thing we saw 919 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,360 Speaker 1: him take a step forward last year with Minnesota. UM, 920 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: and I just look at the guys he's tradition only 921 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,479 Speaker 1: had success with. To me, Justin Jefferson matches up. Yeah. 922 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 1: Man Like typically, Kirk Cousins has outstanding success with guys 923 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: that are route runners, and um the under reported aspect 924 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: of Kirk Cousins. This year's he gets Gary Kubiak, So 925 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: now he really gets to sit at the knee of 926 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: the guy who was the master of this offense to 927 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: Shanahan system. Yes, Mike Shanahan and Cole Shanahan deserved credit, 928 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: but Gary Kubiak took that offense to another level when 929 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: he was at Houston. And when you look at wherever 930 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: he's been, the quarterback has played well and they've had UH. 931 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 1: They found a way to get wide receivers to play 932 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: at a high level. Justin Jefferson being an outstanding route runner, 933 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:39,279 Speaker 1: I think it's very possible that you could see him 934 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: and Adam Thineland both go over the thousand yard mare. 935 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: I believe Justin Jefferson is that good, and I'm a 936 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: big believer in this offense with Gary Kubiak called him 937 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: to place Alright, twenty three, the Chargers come back in. 938 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: They make a trade to get back into the first round. Yeah, look, 939 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray gives them something that they needed. You talk 940 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 1: about being strong right down the middle. You have Derwin 941 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: James there, who's the hybrid, but they still needed a 942 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: second level defender that can make plays. Well, that's Kenneth Murray. 943 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray is the epitome of a side on the 944 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: sideline chaser. He can come down and blitz. He doesn't 945 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,919 Speaker 1: mind striking in the whole. He also has enough athleticism 946 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 1: to cover backs of the backfield. I like him, and 947 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 1: I like what they're doing because they're building this defense 948 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: to match up with the Kansas City Chiefs. So if 949 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: you can imagine he may have to match up with 950 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: Clyde Edistler, I like that opportunity. I like that matchup, 951 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 1: and I think the Chiefs, uh, the Charges had to 952 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: do that with defending the Chiefs, and I yeah, also 953 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 1: an outstanding blitzer. So when you get in in pass 954 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: fresh situations, you're gonna be able to have guys with 955 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,920 Speaker 1: Bosa Ingram uh Chenna no Wosu, who's very versatile, can 956 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 1: walk around and move around, and Kenneth Murray. Those are 957 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: a lot of chess pieces for Gus Bradley to kind 958 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: of move around and can get kind of exotic. I 959 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 1: know that hasn't really been his, uh his way of 960 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: doing things, but he's gonna have some some creativity and 961 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: some flexibility now with Kenneth Murray added to that mix. Uh. 962 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 1: Caesar Ruiz steady Eddie center from from the University of Michigan. 963 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: He goes to the Saints at for the Saints, and 964 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: I think you'll see this continue after Drew brees career 965 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:07,320 Speaker 1: is over. But just philosophically believe in protecting the interior. 966 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 1: First um, they hit on Ryan Ramschack is a tackle 967 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: and obviously have Tarran Armstead, but they've always invested in 968 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 1: the interior of that offensive line, be at the draft 969 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 1: or or in free agency, and that continues here with 970 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 1: just a really steady Eddie, solid player and Caesar Ruiz, 971 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 1: yes steady Eddi player individually want to be selling on 972 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 1: the inside. Guys like Drew Brees they hate having pressure 973 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,920 Speaker 1: right in their face. And most traditional pocket passes that 974 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: don't have the movement skills, they don't like people that 975 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 1: are right up there. So that's why you gotta build 976 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: a fortress right in front of them, and we can 977 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,920 Speaker 1: forget forecast. If it's Taysom Hill or really if it's 978 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: Jamis Winston, they're building the fortress up front to make 979 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 1: sure that their traditional driveback pasters can have success. Brandon 980 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: I Yuk was the next one. Brandon I Yuk is 981 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: an interesting one because he really reminds me a lot 982 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: of Deebo sam Uh in terms of the way that 983 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: he is able to kind of make plays on the move, terrific, 984 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 1: terrific with the ball in his hands. His ability to 985 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: make things happen gives them a dynamic playmaker to really 986 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: build around. And as we think about Kyle Shanahan in 987 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 1: this offense, man, I just think he goes to the 988 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 1: next level with another playmaker like Yep. I love what 989 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: he does after the catch, Um that was his best trade. 990 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 1: All right, things got interesting at again. Some people were 991 00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: blindsided by this. I wasn't we We talked about this 992 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 1: all the time Buck on our show. We talked about 993 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: it on Path of the Draft with Jordan's loved Green 994 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 1: Bay Packers. Uh, they make a move to try and 995 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 1: get the air apparent to Aaron Rodgers, maybe a year 996 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 1: or too early as opposed to a year or too late. Um. 997 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 1: And again, I know there's been a lot of people 998 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: that are upset about this. I think Aaron Rodgers has 999 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,439 Speaker 1: kind of come around to understanding it. Maybe it wasn't 1000 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:42,880 Speaker 1: communicated as well as it should have been. Um. I 1001 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: don't have a problem with this pick. I have a 1002 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: problem with with not using some of these follow up 1003 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: picks to to put more weapons around Aaron Rodgers. That 1004 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,880 Speaker 1: was my only critique of the Packers draft. Yeah, and 1005 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: talking to people there, they were saying like, look, man, hey, 1006 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 1: why I received on the radar. But unfortunately in every 1007 00:44:58,280 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: round where they're about to get their guy there, guy 1008 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,760 Speaker 1: came off the board. Some would speculate that maybe Brandon 1009 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,439 Speaker 1: Ayuk was going to be their guy in the first round, 1010 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 1: he's off the board, Jordan Love is sitting there. They 1011 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: take him. This is a pick that is for the future. 1012 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 1: You know, we talked about the quarterback position being the 1013 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 1: most important position. Well, you need to invest in that, 1014 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,399 Speaker 1: and you need to invest in it before your due. 1015 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: And I think this gives them an opportunity to really 1016 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 1: develop Jordan Love to prepare him for starting roll down 1017 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 1: the line. All right, Who we have next, look Jordan 1018 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 1: Brooks and you talk about surprises Jordan and Jordan. Jordan 1019 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: Brooks going to the Seattle Seahawks out of Texas Tech. 1020 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: Not a lot of people talked about him leading up 1021 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,280 Speaker 1: to the draft, but when you see him on tape, 1022 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: very productive, a guy that is a high mortar guy, 1023 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,919 Speaker 1: very instinctive. And we've talked about what Pete Carroll likes. 1024 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 1: He loves guys that are instinctive, they have a nose 1025 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 1: for the ball. Jordan Brooks has that. Yeah, big time 1026 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: speed and range too, which you have to have to 1027 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: play in that defense. It'll be interesting to compare the 1028 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: linebackers from this draft and and where how they end 1029 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: up doing. We talked about Kenneth Murray, Jordan Brooks. That 1030 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 1: then right after Jordan Brooks, you have Patrick Queen going 1031 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 1: to the Baltimore Ravens, who I like the best out 1032 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: of all three of these guys. He ends up being 1033 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 1: the third one picked, and the ravensh just have a 1034 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: very very talented guy who didn't have a long track 1035 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 1: record there at l s U. H didn't start to 1036 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't even the starter heading into his 1037 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 1: last season there at l s U. But man, he 1038 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,760 Speaker 1: came on like Gangbusters, played great in their big games 1039 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 1: and can run and hit. Um. I just think that 1040 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens team had to address the second level of 1041 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 1: their defense and they did it with some big time 1042 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: capital here in the draft with the first round pick 1043 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: and Patrick Queen and I think, uh, you know, they 1044 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: know how to scout that position. You know, Baltimore for 1045 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 1: a long time and I was there, we had a 1046 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: little bit of a blind spot at the receiver position. 1047 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 1: Couldn't get that right. They've never had problems drafting linebackers. Uh, 1048 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,439 Speaker 1: they usually hit on those. And they found a bunch 1049 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 1: of undrafted ones who are pretty good too. But this kid, 1050 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: he's gonna be a star. I really believe that, Oh, 1051 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,080 Speaker 1: he is gonna be a star. And what I love 1052 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 1: about them is just how they kind of put it together. Um, 1053 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 1: they understand exactly what they want to up front. You 1054 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: talked about like play like a raven and the trades 1055 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: that you have to have. Well, he embodies all of 1056 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 1: those trads and I think he's gonna have some success. 1057 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 1: I think the expict is interesting to Tennessee Titans. Titans 1058 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 1: taking Isaiah Wilson part of the reason why it's interesting 1059 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 1: because I was Isaiah Wilson is someone that we had 1060 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: heard that people like him in the first round, but 1061 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 1: it was hard to justify based on how we saw 1062 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,920 Speaker 1: the tape. But the one thing that we know is 1063 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: he's a rogue greater. He's a guy that really lives 1064 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 1: in that mall and mash world. Well, the Tennessee Titans 1065 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: want to mash you upfront, and so they get a 1066 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,800 Speaker 1: guy that can move bodies off the line of scrimmage. 1067 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: And so if they're able to kind of run the 1068 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,280 Speaker 1: football the way they want to run, Isaiah Wilson won't 1069 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: have a problem. I think the big problem comes in 1070 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: pass protection. If they have an opportunity, if they're one 1071 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,280 Speaker 1: of those teams that falls behind and he is forced 1072 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: to play on that island by himself, sometimes they might 1073 00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,439 Speaker 1: not look pretty, but if they can dictate the terms 1074 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 1: and run the football, he could have success. There's the 1075 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: first round pire. Yeah, I think if Orlando Brown, uh 1076 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: not not Orlando Brown Jr. Who's with the Ravens, but 1077 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 1: his dad Zeus Isaiah Wilson. You know, to me, that's 1078 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: kind of the career hoping to have out of him, 1079 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,320 Speaker 1: which is a dominating run blocker and just hold on 1080 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: for dear life and past protection. Uh. Miami. Noah Igbanogeny 1081 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: the corner from Auburn, that's their third first round pick. Um. 1082 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: I think when you you look at two of where 1083 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: they got him, I love that. I Austin Jackson is 1084 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 1: a good player, maybe a little bit early for him. 1085 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: Noah Igbanogeny is a really tough, physical player, instinctive. He 1086 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: just doesn't have good great ball skills. Buck. He just 1087 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 1: doesn't doesn't make a lot of plays. Um. So to me, 1088 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 1: I thought that was a little rich for where they 1089 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,320 Speaker 1: took him. But I again, they they valued the toughness 1090 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:36,800 Speaker 1: and again a great kid like off the charts and tangibles, intelligent, tough, 1091 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,320 Speaker 1: all that stuff. But yeah, look, son of track star parents, 1092 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 1: has a track background, straight line runner. Um. The thing 1093 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: about it is he doesn't have a lot of ball skills. 1094 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: But the thing about the Miami Dolphins, they play so 1095 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,799 Speaker 1: much man demand that ball skills aren't necessarily high on 1096 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: the list. Uh. They this is a team that also 1097 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 1: pay big money for Bryan Jones and byan Jones has 1098 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: two career interceptions in seventy seven games. I think what 1099 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: this is is we've talked about fit in scheme. He 1100 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 1: fits how they want to play. They want to play 1101 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: man to man, they want to be nose to knows. Well, 1102 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: that's what he did in Auburn. He's not going to 1103 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: get a lot of interceptions, but he should get a 1104 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: lot of breakups because he has enough speed. It is 1105 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: a little early, but the player in terms of stylistically, 1106 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: he fits what they want to do. Now we will 1107 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: see as a nickel player if it has enough value 1108 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 1: to kind of justify why he was selected in the 1109 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: first round. I like what Minnesota did with their next 1110 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 1: peck here at thirty one, buck Man, Jeff Gladen. He's 1111 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: a good player man, really good football player on the island. 1112 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:37,800 Speaker 1: They lose a couple of corners Xavier Rose, Trey Waynes, 1113 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: they get Jeff GLADDENI who's a tough, physical player, a 1114 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 1: guy who had TCU did a really good job of 1115 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,320 Speaker 1: just putting his hands on people knocking him around, putting 1116 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,880 Speaker 1: himself in positions to make tack because he makes players 1117 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 1: on the ball. I think he's a tough minded player 1118 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,560 Speaker 1: and I think that's really why Mike Zimmer wanted him. Yeah, 1119 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: he fits the build there. I like what they're doing 1120 00:49:57,520 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. I thought that had a great draft. Kansas 1121 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 1: City rounds it out with a player that was made 1122 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 1: to play in their system. Clyde Edwards, a layer running 1123 00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 1: back out of l s U goes to the Chiefs. 1124 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes all that vertical speed. They're gonna be able 1125 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 1: to stretch people out and then you're gonna have the 1126 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 1: ultimate checkdown guy. And Edwards a layer to do damage 1127 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 1: out of the backfield, and also somebody that is going 1128 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: to run in light boxes anywhere he is on the field, 1129 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: and he's strong, he's loaded the ground, he's tough to 1130 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 1: get on the ground. Um again, we we put our 1131 00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: flag in the ground on running backs on this podcast. 1132 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,319 Speaker 1: We are not anti drafting running backs. However, we are 1133 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 1: anti paying them on the second contract, but we're not 1134 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: anti drafting them early. I think it's really apparent now. 1135 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,319 Speaker 1: I think now you can look at the Kanda City 1136 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 1: Chiefs and see kind of their long range plan. Right. 1137 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: So they do the draft and then they signed Pat 1138 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: Mahomes after the draft. And now that Pat Mahomes has 1139 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: signed on that big time deal, we've talked about the 1140 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: importance of being able to draft and develop the role players. Well, 1141 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: the most important role player for Pat Mahomes will be Clade. 1142 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 1: It was a large and part of this is because 1143 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 1: he is going to be the guy that is the 1144 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 1: ultimate counter. Uh. If you play light boxes, you play 1145 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 1: too deep coverage, you really try and put an umbrella 1146 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: around the passing game. Cool, We're either handed off to 1147 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards a large or we'll give it to him 1148 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 1: in the screen game. And you cannot underestimate what has 1149 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,840 Speaker 1: been said from Andy Reid and Brett Veach. They compared 1150 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 1: him to Brian Westbrook. And if you go back and 1151 00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: look at Brian Westbrook's success in Philadelphia when he was 1152 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 1: a two time Pro Bowl player, someone who really did 1153 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 1: it in a variety of different ways, running, touching the 1154 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 1: ball in the passing game was allar has has that stuff. 1155 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,359 Speaker 1: And we know what Eric b enemy being in his ear. 1156 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,560 Speaker 1: He's gonna be tough, He's gonna play tough and so 1157 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 1: I like the fit. I think this is one where look, man, 1158 00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 1: whether you liked him as a as a true first 1159 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,840 Speaker 1: round pick or not, he fits exactly what the Kansas 1160 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: City Chiefs do and I can see why they valued 1161 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,759 Speaker 1: him over some of the other guys in the position. Yep, 1162 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 1: I think again, it comes down to fit and it's 1163 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 1: a perfect fit. Well, this was it, but this is 1164 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 1: like the review shehet, we just gave your review worksheet, 1165 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: uh for for the final here. But it was fun. 1166 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: It was fun to kind of go back through that draft. 1167 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: I needed it, to be honest with you don't know 1168 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 1: where where you were, but I literally names would come 1169 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: up and I'm like, where the heck did he go? Again? Yeah, 1170 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 1: I'm I was already under the other class. I kind 1171 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,840 Speaker 1: of flushed all the other stuff. I put the notebook away. 1172 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 1: Uh the notebooks in my drawer right here. I don't 1173 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: even know. I can't remember half of those names. I 1174 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,280 Speaker 1: kind of flushed him out and I got a new notebook, 1175 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,439 Speaker 1: my notebook for one class that I'm already working on. So, uh, 1176 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: this was a great refresher um and we're gonna have 1177 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: to kind of do it again when when these guys 1178 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 1: go to camp and we began to uh talk about 1179 00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: them and whether they have a preseason or not.
