Welcome to move the sticks, DJ, Bucky. 3 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 2: With you Buck? What's happening Man? Not too much, DJ Man. 4 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 3: I just love going through this stuff that we've been 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,760 Speaker 3: going through in terms of just looking at the teams, 6 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:18,279 Speaker 3: evaluating the arrested because training came. 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 2: Is right around the corner. 8 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: No doubt, this is going to be an abbreviated episode 9 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: today we are we are ripping through our championship foundation pieces. 10 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: So if you don't remember, the way we do this 11 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: is we get NFL research to kind of pilot this 12 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: and then we copilot it, which is a championship foundation 13 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: consisting of a quarterback, three offensive playmakers, three quality offensive lineman, 14 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: two pass rushers could be two outside guys, two inside 15 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: guys or one of each, and then three playmakers from 16 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: the back end, you know, anywhere from linebacker, safety, corner. 17 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: We need three guys that can make plays for us there. 18 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: So that's what you know, that's what we're looking at 19 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: here as we work through this. We are on the 20 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: NFC South the Colors. Just to reiterate, Blue is a 21 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: blue chip player. I mean in a top five, top 22 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: ten at worst player at his position. Green is a 23 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: really solid, dependable starter. Yellow has some type of concern, 24 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: be it age, injury, or contract, so it could be 25 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: going to his last year of his deal, coming off 26 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: of an injury, or just a little bit older. Pink 27 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: is an unproven young player you're hoping is going to 28 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: ascend to a Green or maybe even a blue. And 29 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: then Purple is a young, unproven young player but has 30 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: blue chip potential. Really that's kind of reserved for the rookies. 31 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 2: You know. 32 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: It is the guys that were hopeful, but we have 33 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: not seen anything. So those guys are going to be 34 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: the color purple. 35 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 2: You're eight a roll? 36 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, let's do it all right, Here we go again. 37 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: If you missed the previous episode, we went through the 38 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: NFC East and the NFC North. Today we're going to 39 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: work through the South and the West. So let's start 40 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: in the NFC south of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Let's 41 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: start at the quarterback position. Baker Mayfield is a Green. 42 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: Mike Evans for the playmakers, Mike Evans, Rashad White both greens, 43 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 1: and then Chris Godwin is a yellow. We get to 44 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: the quality offensive lineman. Tristan Worth's only twenty five years old, 45 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: is a blue. Gadeki is a green at twenty five 46 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: years old. And you've got Graham Barton the rookie, who 47 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 1: I think is gonna be a really good player. Obviously 48 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: he's a purple at this point in time. For pass rushers, 49 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: you've got your choice between Vida Veay and Elijah Cantsey, 50 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: two different, totally different style of players there. And then 51 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: you've got their greens listed as greens. Ya Yaddabi and 52 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: Chris Braswell would be pinks. Ya yat Diabi played really 53 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: well last year as a rookie. Braswell, you know, we'll 54 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: see what he looks like in his rookie season. You 55 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: get to the playmakers. Antoine Winfields is a blue, Jimmel 56 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: Dean is a green, and Levante David is a yellow. 57 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:43,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 58 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 3: Man, this is a really interesting team to look at, right. 59 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 3: So when we talk about the guys that in the 60 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 3: green category that can go up or down, Mike Evans 61 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 3: to me is a guy that could be in that 62 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 3: blue category. Just when you think about Nast eight years 63 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 3: with a thousand yards, he's a little old, but he 64 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 3: continues to dominate on the outside. We have seen Chris 65 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 3: Godwin play at a high level, and the two of 66 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 3: those guys win healthy and right, they can make a 67 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 3: bunch of plays that can give you kind of one 68 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 3: of those best tandems and football on the perimeter. And 69 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: if you have that, then Baker Mayfield can move into 70 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: a different category because of the supporting cast. So in 71 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,559 Speaker 3: really long story short, I'm saying the tamp Bay Buccaneers 72 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: have an offense that has the potential to be much 73 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 3: better on paper if the pieces of the falls have 74 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: just come together and play really. 75 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: Well, no doubt. 76 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: So if I'm gonna if I'm gonna make a cut 77 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: there on that list, man, when I look at having 78 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: a couple extra names for those spots, I'm gonna go 79 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: still with Vida Vea over Kalija Kancy. I love Kalija 80 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: Cansy and what he's going to be he's going to 81 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: develop into. But I'm gonna give I think I might 82 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: give Yaya Diyabi coming off that rookie year that he had. 83 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: I might actually might already put him in the green category, 84 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: which might be kind of early for that, But I 85 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: liked him and what he brought to the table. There, 86 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: big time, big time juice, great tester, and someone who 87 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: played well as a rookie. Let's get to the Saints 88 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: buck at quarterback position. Derek Carr is a yellow at 89 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: age thirty three. Alvin Kamara is a yellow at age 90 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: twenty nine. The other two playmakers, Chris Olave is a 91 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: green twenty four years old. Rashid Shaheed is a pink. 92 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: You get to the quality offensive lineman. Eric McCoy is 93 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: a green. Ramchecker Ruiz would be yellows, and then Tyler 94 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 1: c Fuaga, one of my favorites in the draft, is 95 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: a purple as a rookie. Get to the pass rushers, 96 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: Cam Jordan and Chase Young. You've got two yellows for 97 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: different reasons. You get to the pass rushers. The other spot, 98 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: you've got Carl Granderson is a green. The defensive playmakers, 99 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: you've got Lattimore or a Deebo. Those are greens. And 100 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: then to Mario Davis and Tyron Matthew. Those choices of 101 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: those guys would be yellows. And then you've got kool Aid. 102 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: McKinstry would be listed as a he should be a purple. 103 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: I would guess there's us as a pink here, but 104 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: I'm guessing he should be a purple. 105 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, DJ, What's interesting, Like the the Ross's that we've 106 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 3: talked about on the last two podcasts, there's been a 107 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 3: handful of guys that would say, oh, well, this guy 108 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: can be a blue, this guy can be a blue 109 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 3: or whatever. This is one of the first teams that 110 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 3: I'm kind of getting to it and I'm looking on project. 111 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, well, who can move into a higher category. 112 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 3: And for the Saints, maybe Chris o'live could be that. 113 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of love on the streets 114 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 3: for Paulson a debo as a cornerback. He can do that, 115 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 3: so same with Marshawn Lattimore. But they're kind of a 116 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 3: team that's just kind of stuck right in the middle. Now, 117 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 3: that doesn't mean that they won't be a highly competitive 118 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 3: team or team to even somehow finds a way to 119 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: win a division, But when you look at the talent 120 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,919 Speaker 3: long term wise, DJ, they're one of these teams that 121 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: are just kind of stuck, stuck like in no man's land. 122 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think I'm gonna make an executive decision here. 123 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: If we're talking about foundation pieces, we're obviously talking about 124 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 1: building something, and I admire the career tomorrow Davis is 125 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: a great player, but he's thirty five years old. I 126 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: don't think you would say as part of the building 127 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: blocks for the future. So I think we should we 128 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: should swap him out. Just put a debo on that 129 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:05,119 Speaker 1: line and a Deebo should be a green, so that 130 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: that would be the that would be the move there. 131 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: So that'll clean that up a little bit. And then 132 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: let's sair an old team. 133 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 2: They're like, they're over thirty. 134 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 3: Just in this conversation that we're talking about, we're talking 135 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 3: about Derek Carr, we might just war in clue Alvin Kamara, 136 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 3: Ryan Ramchick, Cam Jordan, Mario, Davis, Tyron Matthew. 137 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they are an old team. So a couple 138 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: of things gonna happen. 139 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: Either they're gonna loaded for Bear this year and it's 140 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 3: going to go great for them, but when they fall off, 141 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: they're gonna fall off the cliff because so many of 142 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 3: their foundational pieces are older players. 143 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: Yep, one hundred percent. All right, let's get to the 144 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. Now you go from an older team to 145 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: a younger team. Outside the quarterback position, Kirk Cousins is 146 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: a yellow at thirty six. The playmakers b Jon Robinson, 147 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: Drake Lennon, Kyle Pitt's all greens twenty two, twenty three, 148 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: and twenty three years old. Hopefully they make the leap 149 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: this year. At least one of those guys gets his 150 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 1: way into the blue category with better quarterback play offensive 151 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: line wise, the three guys you'd go with Chris Lindstrom's 152 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: twenty six. You've got Dolomon or McGarry. Both those guys 153 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: for one spot there, they're greens. Jake Matthews would be 154 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: a green, he's thirty two years old. You get to 155 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: the pass rushers, this has been the issue. I've got 156 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: Arnold Abakattie at twenty five or Rouco roo Row this year. 157 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: Those guys are pink or purple. You get Grady Jared 158 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: as a yellow. Those are your pass rushers and your playmakers. 159 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: Jesse Bates I would say, shouldn't be a blue. He 160 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,559 Speaker 1: says is a green. Here. Aj Terrell is a borderline blue, 161 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: but he's a green. And then Clark Phillips would be 162 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: a pink. So that's the group there. Obviously, they need 163 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: those young guys on offense to at least one or 164 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: two of those guys to ascend. 165 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: They have to. Man, we've talked so much about the Falcons. 166 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: I feel like for the last two years we talked about, Man, 167 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: this would be one of the best offense that we've seen. 168 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: Look at all the weapons that they have on the outside. 169 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 3: Calf Is, Jake London, b Jehan Robinson. Well, at some 170 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 3: point they have to take the next step. I am 171 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: really hopeful and optimistic that Zach Robinson is going to 172 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: do a really good job of putting this offense in 173 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: a position to really make a lot of plays. But 174 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 3: they're going to need the quarterback, whether's Kirk Cousins or 175 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: Michael Pennix Jr. To help these other guys touch the 176 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 3: ball enough where they can have an impact that allows 177 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 3: us to say, hey, these are blue chip players. 178 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: Yep, one hundred percent. To me, their whole thing is 179 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: they need a pass rusher to emerge, and they need 180 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: those offensive players to step up to where they were drafted, 181 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: and hopefully the quarterback play helps them do that. Let's 182 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: get to the Carolina Panthers a pink there for Bryce 183 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: Young at the quarterback spot, still twenty three years old. Man, 184 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: hopefully this is better for him this year. Offensive playmakers 185 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: Deontay Johnson. I'll put him in their over feeling as 186 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: a yellow. And then you're going to really rely on 187 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: some of these young guys. You've got Xavier to get 188 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 1: Jonathan Brooks, two rookies, those would be purples. If you 189 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: got Jonathan Mingo off last year, he would be a 190 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: pink man. A lot of unproven players there. Not going 191 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: to use Adam Thielen in this mix as a thirty 192 00:08:59,920 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: four year old. And then the quality offensive lineman Ikwanu. 193 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: How I guess we could make him. He's a green here. 194 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: I would argue he should probably be a pink. He's 195 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: just been too inconsistent. Taylor Moten is a is a green. 196 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: Then you've got Robert Hunt or Damian Lewis who came over. 197 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,599 Speaker 1: I think I might put both those guys in. I 198 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: might take might take Moten out there and make those 199 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: guys greens. And then defensively pass rushers Derek Brown, you 200 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: could make the cases of blue very good green if 201 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: not a blue. And then you've got Clowney who is 202 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: a yellow. And then the defensive playmakers, You've got Josie 203 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: Jewell as a green. Then you've got Shaq Thompson and 204 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: j C. Horn as yellows. And again j C. Horn, 205 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: that's just health. He should he should have sent to 206 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: at worsted Green, if not a Blue by the end 207 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: of the year. 208 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 2: Yeah. No. 209 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 3: So this is really interesting because when I'm sitting here 210 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,599 Speaker 3: and I'm looking at this team, You're right, there's a 211 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 3: lot of unproven talent, a lot of guys that have 212 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 3: a lot of potential, a lot of upside that you 213 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: value Bryce young baby leg Get you think about Jonathan 214 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 3: I mean, go all young players, we don't know what 215 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 3: they could be, and you open that Dave Canalis can 216 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 3: put them in a situation where they can play well. 217 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 3: The Greens that we talked about all on the offensive line. 218 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 3: So if anything, the Carolina Panthers are going to improve, 219 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 3: They're going to improve and eventually emerge as a team 220 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 3: to a viable contender because of their offense more so 221 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 3: than their defense. So a lot of pressure on Dave 222 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 3: canal is to get this offense up and going. 223 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: Do want to remind everybody the top one hundred is back. 224 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: Find out who the players voted as the best player 225 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: in the NFL.

We are going to rip through here again. 230 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 1: This is a brief episode today. We're gonna rip through 231 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: the NFC West right after this break. All right, Buck, 232 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: let's get to it here. The forty nine Ers, coming 233 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: off of twelve and five season. Brock Purdy is a Green. Truthfully, 234 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, people can argue about it on his way 235 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: to a blue if he has an year this year 236 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: like he did last year. I'm done trying to make 237 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: excuses for a guy's success. Man, At some point in time, 238 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: we's got to give him his due. But he's a green. 239 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey is a Blue at twenty eight years old. 240 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: For one of the playmaker spots. You've got your choice 241 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: here between Deebo and Ayuk, both Yellows for different reasons. 242 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: Contract obviously being the reason there for Brandon Ayuk, and 243 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: then George Kittle's still a Blue thirty years old. You've 244 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: got offensive line wise, Trent Williams is a Blue at 245 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: thirty six and no signs are slowing down. Colt mckivtz 246 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: is a green, and then you've got Jake Brindle or Feliciano, 247 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: either one of those guys you want to pick would 248 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: be a yellow. Nick Bosa is a blue on defense, 249 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: Hardgrave is a green on defense gives you the inside 250 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: outside there, and then you've got Fred Warner as a blue. 251 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: You've got Chavarius Ward is a green, and you've got 252 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: Hufunga or green Low, both those guys coming off of injury. 253 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: They're yellows for those reasons, but definitely have green, if 254 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: not blue upside. 255 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 3: Say what you wish man. They are the gold standard 256 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 3: right now personnel. Of all the people that we've talked about, 257 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 3: all the teams that we talked about the last two 258 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: podcasts in the NBFC, this team. 259 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 2: Has by far the most blues in their prime. 260 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 3: And we could talk about some of them being older, 261 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: George Kittle being thirty, Trem Williams being thirty six, but 262 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 3: there's still blue players. 263 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: Brod Purdy should be in the blue. 264 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 3: Category based on how he's played, so we shouldn't apologize 265 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 3: for that. We can talk about Deebo Samuel and Brandon 266 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 3: Niyuk almost being blue chip players in terms of the 267 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 3: role that they play within this team. This team is 268 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 3: absolutely loaded, which is why they went to a Super 269 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 3: Bowl a season to go. But man, when you just 270 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 3: think about where they are right now and where they 271 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 3: could be in a couple of years, like the window 272 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: is closing, but it's still. 273 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 2: Wide open for the forty nine is to win a 274 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. 275 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: It's interesting to me if you compared the two teams 276 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: that we've gone over so far in these two episodes, 277 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: if you look at the rematch from last year's NFC 278 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 1: Championship game, Okay, you've got a little more. You've got 279 00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: the Blues with San Francisco that are okay, they're still 280 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: on their window, but they're moving towards the back of 281 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: their window. For some of these guys, obviously we think 282 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: about Trent Williams, George Kittle, like these guys are are 283 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: great players, have been great players. But you know, age wise, 284 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: you're talking about you know, a tackle who is an elite, 285 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: elite player, but it's thirty six years old. You're talking 286 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: about George Kittle at the tight end position, who's thirty. 287 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: You think about McCaffrey running back age wise twenty eight, 288 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 1: like that's you know, you're getting there towards towards the 289 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: back nine. 290 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: So to speak. 291 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: And then you look at the Detroit Lions. You look 292 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: at their left tackle, Pane Suel's twenty three. You look 293 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: at their tight end, who's a big time player, Sam 294 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 1: Laporta twenty three years old. So man, there's you look 295 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: at the running back Jimior Gibbs twenty three versus McCaffrey 296 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: being twenty eight. Like we can look at it and say, Okay, 297 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: the Niners are a more talented team than Detroit. But man, 298 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: if you're betting on the future, if you want to 299 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: say for this year, okay, But if you're going to 300 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: say over, if I give you either of these fosters 301 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: for the next five years, I'm taking Detroit. 302 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 2: Man. 303 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,959 Speaker 1: Like all those guys are still growing. 304 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 3: They are still growing, like they are on the come. 305 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 3: They're the young, hungry Lions. And when you just look 306 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 3: at the way the game played out DJ that championship game, 307 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 3: the Lions were whooping on the forty nine ers the 308 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 3: first had and they fell apart, and I would say 309 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 3: it was more of a case and forty nine Ers 310 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 3: fans can be mad at me, And I'm Okay with this, 311 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: it was more of the Lions giving the game away 312 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: more so than the Niners winning the game. And look, 313 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 3: that's part of football, Like when teams turn the ball over, 314 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 3: they don't make plays, that's what happens. But this Lions 315 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 3: team is right on par with the Niners. And I 316 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: can't wait to see them square off because you talk 317 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 3: about two teams that are loaded. When we have gone 318 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 3: through the list and mentioned the blue chippers, they're right 319 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 3: there and. 320 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: The Lions are. 321 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 3: I mean, the Lions and the Eagles are the only 322 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 3: teams that come close to challenging what the Niners can 323 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 3: offer when it comes to the blue chip talent on 324 00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 3: their roster. 325 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is what this exercise is all about, to 326 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: kind of see some of these things as it unfolds. 327 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to Let's get to the next 328 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: team here, which is the La Rams coming off ten 329 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: and seven wild card berth Matthew Stafford is a Green 330 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: at thirty six. Pooka Nakua is a Green twenty three 331 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: years old. Kien Williams is a Green twenty four years old. Again, 332 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: both those guys right on the cusp of being blues. 333 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup is a yellow. You know, coming off of 334 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: an injury plague season, you've get the quality offensive lineman, 335 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: Dotson and Jackson as greens, haven Stein as a yellow. 336 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: Pass rushers Kobe Turner and Byron Young. You could pick 337 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: between those two guys. I think I might put each 338 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: of those guys on the list because the other two 339 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: are the rookies. With Jared Vers and Fisk, We'll see 340 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: what those guys can do. Excited for him, But right now, 341 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: Kobe Turner and Byron Young coming off outstanding rookie seasons. 342 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: Kobe Turner let all rookies and sacks, so I'd say 343 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: both those guys are greens. A lot of good young 344 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: players there, Ernest Jones a Green as a twenty four 345 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: year old, playmaker, Cameron Curls a Green twenty five years old. 346 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: And then the other spot, you have your choice between 347 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: Tredevious White coming over at twenty nine, or you've got 348 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: Darius Williams thirty one. So pick your poison there. But 349 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: to me, I would put Jared Vers and Fisk. Love 350 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: those guys talent wise, but I think Turner and Byron 351 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: Young deserve the two spots or two pass rushers. 352 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, they do deserve those spots. 353 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 3: And what I will say in looking at this like 354 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 3: they have a lot of greens, and so to me, 355 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 3: the Rams are just a notch below the elite teams 356 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: in the NFC based on their personnel, but they're good 357 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 3: enough on any given Sunday to win. 358 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 2: The game based on how much talent they have. 359 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 3: When you have as many greens as they have, they 360 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 3: have solid starters who have blue chip talent they just 361 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 3: aren't blue chip players either yet or they were blue 362 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 3: chip players that have come down just a little bit. 363 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 3: But a very good roster. And when you add in 364 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 3: the coaching element with Sean McVay and a staff, this 365 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 3: is a team that's can surprise. And so what I 366 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 3: see is a very good team, a team that can 367 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 3: get over ten wins and then once you get the tournament, 368 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 3: anything can happen. 369 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 2: Yep. 370 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: Again, a team with a lot of greens needs needs 371 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: guys like Pooka or Kyraen Williams to back up what 372 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: they did last year. If they have the same exact year, 373 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: they're gonna be uh, They're gonna be blues. They're gonna 374 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: be blues. So interesting group to look at. Seattle Gino 375 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: is a yellow I'm guessing, uh, is that because of 376 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: the age, I think we should make the adjustment make 377 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: him a green. Or maybe it's because he's coming into 378 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: the back end of his deal, but I think we 379 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: should we should look at that one. 380 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 2: Uh. 381 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: DK is a green, Kenneth Walker is a green, Tyler 382 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: Lockett is a yellow. Than the quality offensive line, You've 383 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 1: got Charles Cross as a green, uh, Abraham Lucas and 384 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: Laken Tomlinson as yellows. Pass rushers, between Boye Mafe and 385 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams, they're both greens. Byron Murphy is listed as 386 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: a purple here obviously is the rookie excited about what 387 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: he can do. And then defensive playmakers, You've got Witherspoon 388 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: and Riek Wolan both as greens. And then your choice 389 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 1: there between Julian Love and Jerome Baker. Uh, they both yellows. 390 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: I would go Julian Love and I don't know why 391 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 1: he's a yellow there. I have to get clarification on that, 392 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: but he's definitely a green player. 393 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 394 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 3: You know what's interesting going into this DJ, I aspected 395 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 3: the Seattle Seahawks just on paper, to look like they 396 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 3: were the next team, right like, just like I talked 397 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 3: about the Rams being there, but when you look at 398 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 3: on paper, there's a lot more questions around the Seattle 399 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 3: Seahawks more so than the LA Rams. What I will say, 400 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 3: they got good players. You know, Spence a good player, 401 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 3: Tyler Lock's a good player. You talk about Lucas and 402 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 3: Thomlinson being good players, but I just don't know can 403 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 3: they get into that blue category? 404 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 2: And then their green players are really good. 405 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 3: But of the ones that we talk about, maybe DK 406 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 3: Metcalf can get there. 407 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 2: The other guys are really really good players. 408 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 3: To Rek Woland, I mean Reek Wolan and Devin witherspoone, 409 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 3: they potentially can get there, but it's a little different 410 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 3: seeing because they don't have a standout blue chip player 411 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 3: right now. They just have good players that are kind 412 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 3: of stuck in that little spot where they're at. 413 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, more about depth here. Really good players. I think 414 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: Riek Willen and Witherspoon, like you said, I think even 415 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: when those guys are capable of making the leap to 416 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: go up into the blue category, I'm excited to see 417 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: what Byron Murphy looks like. I will say man Lake 418 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: and Tomlinson did not play well for the Jets after 419 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: coming over in free agency a few years ago from 420 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 1: the Niners. Was not the same player, so they need 421 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,239 Speaker 1: him to give you a little bit more than that. 422 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: Let's get to the Arizona Cardinals to round it up 423 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: around at the round it all off here to Kyler 424 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: Murray coming off of a When he got on the field, 425 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: you saw flashes again of what he can be. Green 426 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: player at twenty seven years old. James Connor a yellow 427 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: at twenty nine. Marvin Harrison is a purple at twenty two, 428 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,239 Speaker 1: but man, he could go on the fast track from 429 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: a purple all the way up to a blue once 430 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: we get a chance to see him in action. Trey 431 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,479 Speaker 1: McBride's at green. So those are your playmakers there. Trey 432 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 1: McBride only twenty four years old. Quality offensive lineman. Paris Johnson. 433 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: I think it's going to chance to be a green. 434 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: If not, you know, maybe even eventually better than that, 435 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: only twenty three years old. He's listed as a pink. 436 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: J Williams is a green, and then you've got your choice. 437 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: I think we'll go with will Hernandez is a yellow 438 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: there for those offensive line spots, and then pass rushers. 439 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: Xavan Collins is a twenty five year old is a yellow. 440 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 1: And then you've got the young guys. Here's pinks with 441 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: b Jo Jilari and Darius Robinson is young guys pink 442 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: or purple your choice there, and then Buddha Baker is 443 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: a yellow as a playmaker. Jalen Thompson is a green. 444 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: And then you get Garrett Williams Max Melton, two young guys. 445 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 1: You're looking at pink or purple there. 446 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, DJ. 447 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 3: When you look at the board and you see a 448 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 3: little bit of a fruit salad like all the different colors, 449 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 3: it kind of tells you that the team is in 450 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 3: a rebuild. And I love what they're trying to do, 451 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 3: and I like the competitiveness and the fistness, but just 452 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 3: from a personnel standpoint, a talent standpoint, they're just behind 453 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 3: some of the other teams. 454 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 2: That's it. 455 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 3: Jonathan Yannon and those guys did a really good job 456 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 3: of making this team very competitive. And when you have 457 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 3: a quarterback, you. 458 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: Have a chance. Kylin Murray can elevate the offense on 459 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 2: his talent alone, and if the offense plays at a 460 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 2: higher level, they can win some games. 461 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean, you know, offensive playmaker wise, I 462 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: think I might I might sub out man. I know 463 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: James Connor has just been a rock steady player, but 464 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: Michael Wilson, I think is gonna be a really good 465 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: player for them. So I'm excited to see what he 466 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: brings to the table as a young sending player. You know, 467 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: I say that I want to pull up Connor's numbers. 468 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: He had all the seven touchdowns, one thousand yards, but 469 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: you know, at his age, I think I'm looking at 470 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: at a guy like Michael Wilson coming off of a 471 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: year where we saw him, you know, do some nice 472 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: things there, big, fast, physical. I think you see this 473 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: young receiving core grow. They need those guys to be greens, 474 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: if not better, by the end of the year. And 475 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: I think if Kyler Murray, if they if those guys 476 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: are greens, Kyler Murray's going end up being a blue 477 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: because he's just too talented and that ability to wind 478 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: up shining through there. So to me, when you look 479 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: at that division as a whole, though, it does feel 480 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: like San Francisco is just they're just head and shoulders 481 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: above everybody else. I know they only they won the 482 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: division by two games last year, but it feels like 483 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: that gap is wider than that. 484 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it does feel like they have a sizeable 485 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 3: advantage over the competition within the division, and it also 486 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 3: feels like they have a bit of an advantage over 487 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 3: the rest of the teams in the NFC. 488 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 2: Well, there you go. 489 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 1: I told you it was gonna be almost a little 490 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 1: speed round there, but we got through it. We knocked 491 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 1: out those two divisions, so we've got the NFC done. 492 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: We've got rehtt coming up on the next episode where 493 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: we are going to dig into the Manning Passing Academy 494 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: and what he saw there, and then next week we 495 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: will knock out those four divisions in the AFC, So 496 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: we will have all this championship foundation and stuff done 497 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: and in the books, and we'll be sure that I 498 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: believe NFL Research will be posting these and we'll have 499 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: some good conversation online about it. So hope you guys 500 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: have enjoyed it. We appreciate you hanging with us, and 501 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: we'll see you next time. Right here on with theistics 502 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: Tends as before,
