1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Welcome to everybody to a Wednesday edition of Texans All Access.

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: And when it's the off season, that means it's a

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: draft Wednesday addition of the show. Yes, get excited. I'd

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 1: love these drafts Wednesday Night. Draft Tonight is actually coming

5
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: out of our in the Lab podcast between Drew Doherty

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 1: and myself. I'm your hostess, Iveney John Harris football Adlost's

7
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: sideline reporter. We've got an awesome draft for you. Drew

8
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: came up with this idea and we're actually splitting up

9
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: into four parts because we are drafting one player from

10
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: every franchise to put together a thirty two man full squad,

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: eight picks at a time. Now, it sounds pretty easy,

12
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: all take this guy, take that guy, But then you

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: got to realize waste, Like I gotta put all these

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: guys together, and then you gotta figure out which teams

15
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: are There very few players to pick, and that led

16
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: me to the decision to take Well, I don't want

17
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: to give it away. I don't want to give it away.

18
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: You'll hear that in our next segment. I also in

19
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: our End of the Lab podcast, we talked about players

20
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: that could be available for the Texans as it sits

21
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: right now with pick number sixty seven. Who could be there, Well,

22
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: there were some players that I saw at the Senior

23
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 1: Bowl that I think could be there at sixty seven

24
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: and I think end up making this Texans roster better

25
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: by their addition. So players that could be there at

26
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: sixty seven will do that later in the show as well.

27
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: But we're gonna kick it off with Deep suit. An

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: interview she did with Gents Fryback of the Athletic been

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: covered to Baltimore Ravens for a long time, so Jeff

30
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: knows David Culley very very well. Jeff and Deep sat

31
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: down to talk about the new head coach of your

32
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: Houston Texans, David Gulley. Deepe, take it away, Jeff. The

33
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: Texans announced that they've hired their fourth head coach in

34
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,919
Speaker 1: franchise history. It's David Culley. He was the assistant head coach,

35
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: passing game coordinator, wide receivers coach for the Ravens for

36
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: the past two years. So tell me what you know

37
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: about him. John Harbaugh came out high praise for Collie

38
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: in his leadership, the energy that he brought to the team,

39
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: his teaching abilities. What was it about him? That made

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: him so valuable to that Ravens organization. Jof I think,

41
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: first of all, you know, you just feel happy for

42
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: a guy like that that you know, has paid his dues,

43
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: that's been around the NFL for a long time, that's

44
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: you know, worked for a ton of really good organizations

45
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: and Super Bowl winning coaches and always been known as

46
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: a loyal, hard working, professional guy, versatile coach. You know,

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: that's the first thing that jumps out to me. But

48
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: what he meant to the Ravens, I mean, he just

49
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: brought a sense of professionalism and leadership. He brought energy

50
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't want to you know, the

51
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: father figure term gets thrown out too much, but I

52
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: really think he has a way of being able to

53
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: relate to play ys and you know, and motivate guys

54
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: and make sure the practice level, you know, the energy

55
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: level in the practice fields up every week and you

56
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: know everybody's adhering to you know, the details of the

57
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: finer points. Just a very professional, energetic coach, you know

58
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: who gets it, you know, who gets how it should

59
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: be done, and you know, demands professionalism stuff of his players. Yeah,

60
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned all the experience he has twenty seven years

61
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: in the NFL, about fifteen years at the collegiate level.

62
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: He also played quarterback at the collegiate level. So now

63
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: that he's getting his first head coaching job at the

64
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: age of sixty five, you know what's sort of the

65
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: reaction in Baltimore around Cully's leaving. A lot of people

66
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: in Houston don't know much about Collie, but they're in Baltimore.

67
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: It seemed like on social media just around then, around

68
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: the nation, there was a lot of positive energy and

69
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: a lot of excitement for him. But you know what's

70
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: the reaction been around the Ravens organization in Baltimore. Yeah,

71
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: I changed a couple of brief messages with John Harball

72
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: and he was thrilled. He was you know, the exclamation

73
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: points were flying. He was just really excited for David

74
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: just because he's been one of those guys. He's been

75
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: a loyal guy, a great organizational guy at so many places,

76
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: who worked his way up, paid his dues. And I

77
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: think what you saw of the reaction kind of nationwide

78
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: from people who have worked with him are to come

79
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: in contact with David Culley. I think that was similar

80
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. I think the coaches and stuff. Just were

81
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: thrilled for him. You know, you don't see stories like

82
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: this happened to him too much anymore. And you know,

83
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: especially in this head coaching process here, you know, with

84
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of guys who haven't been around

85
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: very often are kind of the new hot thing and

86
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: you know, the new offensive mastermind. And you know, those

87
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: are guys and a lot of the cases who are

88
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: getting the jobs. And I think there's a lot of

89
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: people in Baltimore really pleased that a football lifer like that,

90
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: who's paid his dues and done things the right way

91
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: and treated people right, gets an opportunity to lead a franchise.

92
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: Was there any surprise that he wasn't being considered for

93
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: more head coaching jobs over the course of his career.

94
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: Is it just sort of the nature of the time

95
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: that he came out in coaching and and all the

96
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: hardships that black coaches have had to deal with, or

97
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: you know, what are your thoughts on that? Yeah, I

98
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: think that's probably part of it. And you know, unfortunately,

99
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: in some cases, you reach a certain age and it's

100
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: it becomes harder and harder to get a job. I mean,

101
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: you know, the Baltimore is dealing with this right now

102
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: with their defensive coordinator don Wick Martindale. You know, he

103
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't even get an interview. No one even put in

104
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: a slip to talk to him. Meanwhile, if you look

105
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: over the stats since he's been the defensive coordinator, and

106
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: the Ravens are number one across that span and just

107
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: about every category. And I think in a lot of ways,

108
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: his age is held against him, you know, and it's

109
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: probably also his affiliation with defense. You know, a lot

110
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: of teams are looking for more of the offensive mind

111
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, you know. So you know, David

112
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: Culley's been here for two years. I can't tell you

113
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: kind of what went on before that and his other stops.

114
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: All I can tell you is everywhere he's been people

115
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: raved about him, players, coaches, And I also can tell

116
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: you from the second he was here, John Harball was

117
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: saying that, you know, he's head coach caliber. You know,

118
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: he can be a head coach right now. So you know,

119
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: you never know what holds certain guys back, but certainly

120
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: it seems there's kind of an age bias at some

121
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: point where it gets harder and harder to get a

122
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: job with every year that passes by. Yeah, and you

123
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: mentioned more offensive minded coaches. Hopefully that's what David Culley

124
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: brings since he was helping a lot on the offensive

125
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: side of the ball. You and I chatted before the

126
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,239
Speaker 1: Ravens Texans Week two matchup, and I asked you about

127
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: Marquise Hollywood Brown and the jump that he made and Cully,

128
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: now we know, obviously was coaching wide receivers during Brown's

129
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: time in the league. So he sets a franchise record

130
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: Brown that is seven receiving touchdowns. That was a franchise

131
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: season record for rookie and then he made that big

132
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: jump from year one to year two. How instrumental was

133
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: Colley in his development? Obviously Brown's a talented guy him himself,

134
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: but having a coach like Colly sort of guiding him

135
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: and leading him along the way. Where would you place

136
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: his role in Brown's development? Oh, I'm sure. I'm sure

137
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: it has a lot to do with it. I mean,

138
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: you know, David Culley was the guy who's working with

139
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: him and you know, the other receivers more than any

140
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: other coach. And he's very hands on, you know, he's

141
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: very demonstrative in a positive way. And you see that

142
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: with Marquise Brown and the others. You know, people are

143
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: caught up about the Ravens having the thirty second ranked

144
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: passing game and and all that, but the Ravens asked

145
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: their wide receivers to do a lot more than not

146
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: catch the you know that then catch the ball. You

147
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: know's a it's a team that runs the ball more

148
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: than any other team in the league by a wide margin,

149
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: and where receivers come in and they better block or

150
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: they're not going to be on the field. And that's

151
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: one of the things David Culley had to teach as well.

152
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: You know, he had to get the receiving corps to

153
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: buy into the fact that, look, you're not going to

154
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: get the targets that you're gonna get in other places

155
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: around the league. You know, to get on the field,

156
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to bust your butt and block down

157
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: fields and you're probably not going to get the you know,

158
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: the targets you would like. So that group pretty much

159
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: bought in for back to back of years. I mean,

160
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: they've set up set all sorts of run records. And

161
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: you know that's not just the running backs, no offensive line.

162
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: That's partly because the uh, you know, wide receivers blocked

163
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: down field, and Cully was certainly instrumental and kind of

164
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: hammering home that mindset and making sure everyone was on

165
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: the same page. Well, I saw the Baltimore Ravens coaching

166
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: staff at the Pro Bowl aways back, and Deshaun Watson

167
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: was there as well. So Deshaun obviously has a little

168
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: bit of history with Coully, not a lot, but Colly's

169
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: work with guys like Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen. Everyone knows

170
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: the situation and Houston is is pretty precarious right now

171
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 1: with all the news surrounding Watson. So you know, how

172
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: does Colly's experience with guys like Lamar Jackson and the

173
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks he's worked with, and his just his relationship

174
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: building skills. How much will that come into play here

175
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: in Houston? How much do you think that helps the situation? Yeah,

176
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: you hope it does. You know, you hope it does.

177
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: At least they're not you know, I was at the

178
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl too, I wasn't staying at the team hotel

179
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: where these guys kind of kicked back and probably had

180
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: their you know, got to know everybody and had their

181
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: most in depth conversations. But it's a real light, you know,

182
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: light environment. I'm sure a bunch of these guys got

183
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: to know each other, so the relationship isn't starting from

184
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: square one, you know. You know, it's more of a

185
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: reintroduction rather than an introduction, which is good. And you know,

186
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: the when the word filtered out that he was going

187
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: to be the head coach, I mean the first two

188
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: you know words I thought of were steady hand. You know,

189
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: I think David Culley has a steady hand. He knows

190
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: how to relate to people, and he knows how to

191
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: talk to people professionally and sort of galvanize people, and

192
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: you know, you hope that helps in that situation. I'm

193
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: not going to sit here from Baltimore and act like

194
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: I know all of what's going on in Houston. Obviously

195
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: I read the reports like everyone else. But you know,

196
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: if you want a guy kind of to be that

197
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: steady hand, to come in with a calm, professional demeanor,

198
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: bring positivity, you know, I think he's a good choice

199
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: in those areas for sure. All Right, Well, you've covered

200
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: the Ravens for many many years, you've covered David Culley

201
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: for the last two. So before I let you go

202
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 1: any stories or tidbits or anything that really jumps out

203
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: to you about David Culley. Well, two things come to mind. One,

204
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sure you guys have been in the

205
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: same situation too, where you walk out on the field

206
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: for training camp early. I don't know what time the

207
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: Texans practice, the Ravens usually practice pretty early, and it

208
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: was almost without fail, Cully was the first voice you heard.

209
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: You know, he was always coaching, always you know, having

210
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 1: fun talking to guys and just being really demonstrative in

211
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: a positive manner. And that's what you know, that's one

212
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: of the things that kind of struck me, just the

213
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: energy level and the positivity that stands out. And then

214
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: the other thing, it was just kind of different. I

215
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: forgot the exact situation. But this past summer, you know,

216
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: everybody's availability was a little bit off with the COVID.

217
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys have the same And there's one

218
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: day where John Harball wasn't available. It wasn't his turn

219
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: to speak to them afterwards, but it was, you know,

220
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: they bring up assistance periodically and David Culley it was

221
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: his day and Lamar Jackson happened not to be on

222
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: the field, which when the starting quarterbacks not practicing. It

223
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: always gets attention, especially when the guy's the reigning MVP,

224
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: and I just remember them putting Cully up and I'm like, this,

225
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: poor guy, he's gonna get barage with questions about where

226
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 1: Lamar is and what's going on. And he handled it great.

227
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: He handled it like a head coach, you know, and

228
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: he said the right things. I'm sure he was the

229
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: organization with pre pleased with kind of how he put

230
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: out the fire while handing it professionally. He conducted the

231
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: press conference like he was a head coach. And you know,

232
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: obviously we don't want to make too much of ourselves here,

233
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: but dealing with the media is a part of the job.

234
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it is a it can be a frustrating

235
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: part of the job for head coaches. So he showed

236
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: me in that area that you know, he's calm, positive,

237
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: and that kind of came across in that interview, and

238
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: I was kind of really impressed how we handled it.

239
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: Great stuff there from Jeff's rebeca of the athletic and

240
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: of course our own deep situ coming up. I told

241
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: you it's Draft Wednesday. It is the Wednesday night draft.

242
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: Drew Doherty and myself Mono Imano or Amano Almano, I

243
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: never know either way. We're going head to head. Thirty

244
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: two teams, thirty two draft picks. It starts next on

245
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: Texans All Access. Texans All Access, Welcome back to this Wednesday,

246
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: Nation of Texans All Access, and it's a Draft Wednesday edition,

247
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: which means Drew and I are going in the Lab

248
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: for one of my favorite in the Lab drafts that

249
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: we have ever done. We're doing this in four parts

250
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: because there are thirty two picks we have to make.

251
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: Here are the first eight. I'll let Drew take it

252
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: from here. It's time to draft. Oh yeah, we've got

253
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: thirty two picks. It starts now. You get to go first.

254
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: Oh yes, one player per franchise. But this one's very

255
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 1: easy to me. Go for it, very easy because it

256
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: is to me, a priority position in the league. It's

257
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: with a team where I struggle to find players. Really

258
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: what I was gonna do and you give me the

259
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: first pick. To me, it's a drop dead lock. It's

260
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: got to be Anthony Munios the Cincinnati Bengals, the left tackle.

261
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: You go Munos right off the bats Bengals. Good choice,

262
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: all right? I had no idea what I was doing

263
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 1: with the Bengals at all, and that just that that

264
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: handles it. So I feel good, all right. Yeah, So

265
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: in that regard, in a similar situation, it's really kind

266
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,439
Speaker 1: of tricky and really kind of tough. Yeah, but I'm

267
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: gonna go to Atlanta and I'm gonna take Dion Sanders

268
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: off the board. Oh that's a good one, dead gum it.

269
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: That's a good one, because I that's another the one

270
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: part of this was the franchise is trying to figure

271
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 1: out the beauty. Oh man, Okay, you're going the same

272
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: way I'm going. Yeah, to degree. Now, I also feel

273
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: like there's a position that is probably more difficult than others. Now,

274
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: left tackle is easy, but Cincinnati, to me, was hard.

275
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: One team that has no issue as far as having

276
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 1: plenty of players, but I think they have the greatest

277
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: player this position. And that's why I'm taking Larry Allen

278
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys at offensive guard. Solid. Yeah. You

279
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: can see my you can see how I'm building. I'm

280
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: building with my lines, and so that's where I'm going

281
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: with those two. And I'm staying fairly true to my board.

282
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: I'm fairly true, fairly true I'm gonna go to the

283
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: New York Giants and I'm taking lt Man. Yeah, that's

284
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: a good one, all right, So yo, so lts off

285
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: the board. Oh man, I think I have the best

286
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: corner and the best yeah pass rusher right right there.

287
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: And it's tough because those two franchises. I think you're

288
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: taking steps down after those two guys. Yeah, I would.

289
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: There's no question, not to say great players, but I

290
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: think those guys are like yeah, and we should with

291
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: our first two picks. We should feel like Anthony Munio's

292
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: Larry Allen to the best offensive lineman's too, best offensive

293
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: line is all right, I'm gonna gona do right now

294
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: because I do think when it comes to our franchise,

295
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna force you into having to make a decision

296
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: on our franchise. So I'm just gonna go do it

297
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: and take Justin James Watt from the Houston Texans as

298
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: one of my defensive lineman edge rushers. However you want

299
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: to do it. J J. Watt is now a Houston Harris,

300
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: no argument. That's who I would have chosen first from

301
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: the Texans simply because best player in the league, defensive league. Yeah,

302
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: as voted by the folks three years. I think he

303
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: could have made a case for Yeah thirteen season two,

304
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: even though I was a bagger. Okay, I have like

305
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: a list, and then I have a list. I had

306
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: a list of just guys that I definitely won on

307
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: my team no matter what. Wh Yeah you did the

308
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: same way I did up And then I've got another

309
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: list each franchise. And so I'm gonna go back to

310
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: my list, and I'm gonna go to the Cleveland Browns,

311
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna take the guy that my dad has

312
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: always maintained is the best football player of all time,

313
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: not the best quarterback, but the best football player of

314
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: all time, Jim Brown. So I'm gonna go with him.

315
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: It's a good one. He was amazing back in the day. Yeah,

316
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: retired early, could have kept going, but uh yeah, he

317
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: was just he was insane. Back when Sports Century ESPN

318
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: did that Sports Century series at the end of the

319
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: last century, I think he was fourth maybe on the

320
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: all time list. So I'm gonna make it tougher on

321
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: you choosing a Brown. I'm gonna have to. I'm gonna

322
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: have to. I'm gonna have to reach way back. But

323
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: I think I have one for the Browns. And since

324
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: you've taken a Brown, I don't have to worry about

325
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: you taken a guy like Ozzie k Newsom, so I

326
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: could still get a Hall of Famer at tight end,

327
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: which I've I've thought about, but you know, there are

328
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: certain positions that I look at it and go all right,

329
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: where do I feel like is the best? And then

330
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: I thought about twenty fourteen, and I'm like, man, what

331
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: if the Texans had drafted with the number one pick

332
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Donalds. So I'm gonna make it happen. I'm putting

333
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: a defensive tackle along with JJ Watt and think about

334
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: what could have happened. I'm putting Aaron Donald with JJ

335
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: Watt of the Texans. So thus far I've gone lines

336
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: Anthony Munius left tackle, Larry Allen Cowboys at guard, and

337
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 1: then the great JJ Watt and Aaron Donald together. So

338
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: I've got two Hall of Famers and two active players.

339
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 1: Eventually we'll make the Hall of Fame. And amongst the

340
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: two of us. In four we made four picks, yet

341
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: you have made jors yet, so seven picks thus far,

342
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: three of them are the three players that have one

343
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 1: defensive player of the year three times. That's pretty amazing,

344
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: pretty good. All right, I'm gonna go back to the

345
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: well up front. I'm like you, you gotta be good upfront.

346
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,160
Speaker 1: And I think we're waiting. We're kind of dancing around

347
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback here. I'm still gonna dance. I'm not taking

348
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: a quarterback yet. I'm gonna go back to the team

349
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: that broke my heart so many times as a young lad,

350
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: loved him so much. Lots of choices of players you

351
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 1: could take, but I'm gonna take a guy who you

352
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: can argue I don't think he is, but you can

353
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: argue is the greatest oiler of all time. Most people

354
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: are gonna say Earl Campbell, understandably. So I'm gonna get

355
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: with a guy because I think there's a lot of

356
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 1: great running backs that you could cycle in there with Earl,

357
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: and I might choose him one though I can't because

358
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm doing this, but I'm going with Bruce Matthews because

359
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 1: didn't play anywhere. He was pro bowler at all five

360
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 1: positions up front, but I'm gonna choose him so that

361
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: I can't take any Titans. I can't take any more oilers. Yeah,

362
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,479
Speaker 1: but I'd like to take Earl Campbell. I'd pretty much

363
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: given him to you if you want. You know, the

364
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: thing about running back, I you know, I don't want

365
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: to lose the opportunity for running backs, but I just

366
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 1: feel like there are some options at running back, so

367
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: I don't I don't feel I don't feel horrible about that.

368
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with the I'm gonna stick with the

369
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: lines and go back to the offensive line on this one, Okay,

370
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: because I watched this guy growing up and I felt like,

371
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: before he was injured, he was the greatest center that

372
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: ever lived. I'm going to the Miami Dolphins. I'm gonna

373
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: take Dwight Stevenson at center. Good choice. Yeah, his last

374
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: year in the league was nineteen eighty seven. He was

375
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: an All Pro and he'd been all I think the

376
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: previous four years before that. So yeah, and so that

377
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: takes my dolphin off the board. And you know, it's

378
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: interesting because I had a lot. I mean, I had

379
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 1: a bunch of dolphins that I had written down like

380
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: that I wanted to, you know, have on my board.

381
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: And I was like, and then I wrote steven Stone.

382
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 1: I was like, no, I've gotta get I've got to

383
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: get him because after that for centers. I mean, look,

384
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: there are some options. There's no doubt there's a great one.

385
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to give you any ideas, but I

386
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: felt like with Miami, I wasn't Marino was not gonna

387
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: be my guy. And then I was like, where else

388
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: would I go with Miami? And that that that hit

389
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: me and I'll go that way. Zach Thomas would have

390
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 1: been another guy look at a linebacker, just because of

391
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: how productive he was. I think he should be in

392
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Yes, I think it's there's no question.

393
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 1: I think it's an oversight right now that he should

394
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: be in the Hall of Fame. It was really cool

395
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,239
Speaker 1: when I was in Lubbock. I was there from two

396
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: thousand and five to two thousand and nine oh six,

397
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 1: oh seven ish. During that Dolphins bye week, the Lumnock

398
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: Chamber of Commerce had him back, had Zach Thomas back,

399
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: and they honored him and it was a massive turnout.

400
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: He was there, Jason Taylor was there, a few other Dolphins.

401
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: I think Wes Welker was back because yeah, I believe

402
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 1: it was oh six because he would have been still

403
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: with the Dolphins. Yes, it was really cool, cool, cool

404
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: thing there okayum. Seattle is a tricky franchise, so is

405
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 1: Steve Largent, and you wouldn't be wrong going there with

406
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver. But I like the left tackle. I want

407
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: to be good up front, and I think this Chester pit.

408
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: So I'm with every Sunday at home in the Texans

409
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: play a game, and he comes on the shows a

410
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: couple times in the offseason. He played left guard. He

411
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: started out as a left tackle, knows how tough it

412
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: is to play offensive line in the NFL, and he

413
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: is adamant about Walter Jones being the greatest left tackle

414
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: of all time. Says it's not even a debate. And

415
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: I tried to debate him and say Anthony Munio, so

416
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 1: he wouldn't have any of it. That's that's for another time.

417
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna I'm gonna honor Chester's pick here. This

418
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: is kind of a proxy pick, and I'm gonna go

419
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,959
Speaker 1: with Walter Jones, and I'm gonna eliminate my Seahawks choice

420
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: off the board. So I've got an offensive line of

421
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: Matthews and Walter Jones so far, boy, that is that's

422
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: pretty good. Now I'm gonna go to a team that

423
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: I felt like buzz I felt like very tricky, even

424
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: though they've been around for sixty some odd years. But

425
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: I started thinking about them, going, man, what am I

426
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: gonna do from the Vikings? And I just you have

427
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:39,199
Speaker 1: about thirty one opportunities availabilities here. That was a really

428
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: tough one. They have so many great, great players, right,

429
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 1: and then I started thinking, all right, where did they

430
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: have a great player where I feel like I can

431
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: kind of continue with my theme in some sense. And

432
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: I'm literally going one of two ways. In my heart

433
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 1: of hearts, I do feel like, because what I've done

434
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: with the defensive line, I don't have to go there.

435
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with guard Hall of Fame guard,

436
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 1: and I think one of the better ones ever Random

437
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: McDaniel from the Minnesota Vikings, and I'm gonna put him

438
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: opposite Larry Allen. I was always a big fan of

439
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: Random McDaniel, the Hall of Fame offensive guard. So my

440
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: offensive line has really has really come come into view.

441
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 1: But I, you know, Drew, I struggled, and I don't know,

442
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: maybe that's because I grew up as a Packers fan

443
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 1: and just hated the Vikings. But there was one guy considered.

444
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: But then I was like, I we talked about this earlier,

445
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: Randy Moss, Is he a Viking? Is he a Patriot? Like?

446
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: What is he? And so I wanted to stay true

447
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 1: to the franchise aspect of things, and so I went

448
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: with McDaniel, who spent his majority, the majority, if not all,

449
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 1: of his career with the Minnesota Viking. And I don't

450
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: know that. My man, Tyler Suttart is like, yeah, forks up,

451
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: baby sun da bla blah blah blah blah. So he's

452
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: happy with that. So there we go. All right, another

453
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,199
Speaker 1: franchise that's been around a long time and has had

454
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: a lot of great players, and they won a lot

455
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: of championships, but they haven't done it since Eisenhower was president.

456
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 1: I think the Detroit Lions. Yeah, now, I already took

457
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: a running back. I took Jim Brown attempted here, but

458
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: instead I'm gonna go with a wide receiver are Alvin Johnson.

459
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the best lines of all time,

460
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,680
Speaker 1: and I don't have a big playmaking pass catcher yet,

461
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,920
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna get make a tron. I still don't

462
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: know how we stopped him in the second half in

463
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: two thousand because he did in the first half was

464
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: like with ease, and I thought he was gonna have

465
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns that day. I mean, he just went to town.

466
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: So the Lions are off the board for me. Yeah,

467
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: Lions off the boards for you. Now off the board

468
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: for me. Bengals, Cowboys, Dolphins, Vikings, Texans, Rams. In doing

469
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: this exercise, one of the things that you think about

470
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: are your most recent franchises because those obviously, mathematically would

471
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: seemingly have fewer players that you would want to just

472
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: grasp onto. And that's that's the guy. Ye. So I

473
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 1: got to finish my offensive line. So this one to

474
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: me was easy because I think he should be in

475
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame and he was actually a Texan

476
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: for a period. My final pick and I will move

477
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: him over the right tackle and I feel okay with that. No,

478
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: you got you got one more? This is seven? Yeah,

479
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 1: I know. Oh, but I'm finishing my offensive line by

480
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: adding Tony Basselli to my line. My two tackles are

481
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: from USC. Both them played in the AFC. But I

482
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: wasn't totally sure what I wanted to do with Jacksonville,

483
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: even though I lived there and I know they've had

484
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: some players I just felt like there wasn't anybody other

485
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: than to me and Besselli's the greatest jaguarthers been. I

486
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 1: think you should go into the Hall of Fame. It

487
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: should be in the Hall of Fame. And I feel like,

488
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 1: you're sure you've gone in with this crew? Please not.

489
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: But I wasn't sure exactly where I would go with

490
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:16,959
Speaker 1: the Jags, and so I was like, you know what,

491
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: Masselli's the best jaguarther's been, finishes my offensive line. I

492
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: feel good about that. Away we go. Now you have

493
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 1: to you have to decide on somebody from Jacksonville. I was, well,

494
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: I know where I'm going to Jacksonville. It's easy. I'm

495
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait. I don't need to do that now.

496
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: But the Eagles is offensive franchise. It's tough and uh

497
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: because they've had a lot of great players, but I

498
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: think the drop off after this guy is pretty substantial.

499
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with Reggie White from the Eagles,

500
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: the minister of defense. So I've got Reggie, I've got

501
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: Lawrence Taylor. Now that's a weird defense. What are you

502
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: gonna run? You're gonna run three four four three. I

503
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: don't think it really matters. Just send any of that.

504
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 1: So I'm going with Reggie White. All Right, you can't

505
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: take him from the Packers, but I didn't think he would, no,

506
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:08,479
Speaker 1: And that's who I'm gonna go with. Okay, quarterback bro Yeah,

507
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: So I'm going back to the thought of most recent

508
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: franchises because to me, trying to trying to find all

509
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: time players in some sense from a particular franchise gets

510
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: pretty difficult, especially after Basella. I know you probably have one.

511
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 1: I actually have one that I could have gone with

512
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 1: that might have been shocking, and I think he actually

513
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: should be up with the all of Fame, but that

514
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: I'll leave that for a different time. And when you

515
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: go to Jacksonville, actually see him doing the Chester Pits

516
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: thing with like Chester does with you up on the board.

517
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: You see him there, but I don't want to give

518
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: you any ideas. But he's a running back. You've already

519
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: got a running back. So I'm going to the Carolina Panthers.

520
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: And so at this point I'm thinking, Yeah, I met

521
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 1: him in twenty eleven at the Lombardi Awards. I thought

522
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: he was absolutely awesome. I've loved him. I'm gonna ended

523
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 1: up in Carolina. He was my nephews and niece's favorite player.

524
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: Everybody loves Luke Keikley. I'm adding the smartest defensive player ever.

525
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: You don't get all I have Luke Keikley, Aeron Donald

526
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: JJ Watt. Feel very good about what I'm doing. Take

527
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers off the board, and look, you're not

528
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: dead in the water with Panthers, but Panthers and Jags. Yeah,

529
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: I know who you could go with the Panthers, and

530
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: it actually would be a very very good pick because,

531
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: like you said when we started all this, you've got

532
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 1: other jobs on a football team that you've got to

533
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: get taken care of. And if you can do it

534
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: with more than all player, or do the more jobs

535
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: with one player, then you're gonna be sitting pretty So

536
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: that was my eighth pick of the day. Luke Keikley

537
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: from the Carolina Panthers. Good, all right, you got left

538
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: got me? So we're gonna just do eight today. I

539
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:06,239
Speaker 1: like this. Originally I said, hey, let's do sixteen, but

540
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: we can break this up over four. And this is

541
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 1: gonna be pretty easy to do as far as like

542
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: setting it up and making it go and all that

543
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: other stuff. But I've got a great right tackle, excuse me,

544
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: a great left tackle, and I think I'm gonna start

545
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: and try to round out my offensive line. As you know,

546
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: I went to SMU. I was there in pretty pretty

547
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: lean times. Not the leanest SMU times, but they were

548
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: pretty lean. The texts of they losing seasons. My freshman, junior,

549
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 1: and senior years went six and five. As a sophomore,

550
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: played in the Cotton Bowl. That was our home stadium.

551
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 1: We never played an a bowl game, but the home

552
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: stadium back then for the SMU Mustangs was the Cotton Bowl,

553
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: and as you know, the Connon Bowl seats what seventy

554
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: eighty thousand yea, we would routinely pack sixteen thousand on

555
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: a good day. So rall out and kick your legs up.

556
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: And didn't see too many great players come through. Chris Fumat, Mafala,

557
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: Brian Urlocker, I think they were some guys that we saw.

558
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: But one of the greatest Samme Mustangs of all time

559
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: to play. He came back and was the first coach

560
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: after the death penalty to kind of get them back

561
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 1: on their feet. Did an admirable job there. But this

562
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: guy was a hell of a football player. For the

563
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. He was a right tackle. He's in

564
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, many says, maybe one of the

565
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 1: greatest offensive linement of all time. I'm gonna go with

566
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: Forest Greg. So I've got Forest Greg, I've got Walter

567
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: Jones over at left tackle. I've got Bruce Matthews sort

568
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: of Roman. Wherever he's We're gonna figure out a spot

569
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: for him and the guard center guards spot. But I'm

570
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: going with Forrest Greg And I'm gonna give you lots

571
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: of options when we start picking again for the Packers.

572
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: But to reiterate your line, you started off with Anthony

573
00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: Munos of the Bengals. Yes, you got Larry Allen from

574
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. That was your second pick offensive lineman. Your

575
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: third pick with JJ Watts the Texans. He's he's a

576
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: virtual guy. He can play end, he can do a

577
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: lot of things, play on the inside. We know that

578
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: you went with Aaron Donald man he got Watton Donald,

579
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: two greatest defensive players of this decade. And then after

580
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: that you had Stevenson, Dwight Stevenson the center, All Pro

581
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: from the Dolphins, Random McDaniel, all Pro guard from the Vikings.

582
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: You got Tony Passelli of the Jaguars you took I

583
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: think he's probably the greatest Jaguar. He took him off

584
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 1: the board. And then you wrap things up with probably

585
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: the greatest panther, And that was who I was going

586
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: to pick, Luke Keekley at linebacker. That's a good, good unit.

587
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: You've got a good start there, John. Neither of us

588
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: have picked a quarterback yet. Yeah, and there's still time

589
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: for that. I don't want to say that it's in

590
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: this exercise. I feel like this was that's the most

591
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: that's the easiest position to pick. If I don't know,

592
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong in that because I feel like a

593
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: lot of different ways with that particular pick. There are

594
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: a couple of franchises I'm struggling with, Oh, yeah, where

595
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: do I like? Where do I want to Where do

596
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: I really want to go with this? And back to quarterback.

597
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: There's two franchises I'll say three actually that I've looked

598
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: at that I would really like to choose that quarterback.

599
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: But they have perhaps the greatest player at their position. Yeah,

600
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: at another spot, and in two cases they've got two

601
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: greater two other players. So I can't go wrong. Like

602
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: once one of us chooses one of these players. It's

603
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: gonna make it easier, you know. I think, Yeah, well,

604
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm out of the match shop business, Tony Banks, Um

605
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: Brock Oswiler because I took J. J. Watts, you know,

606
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: but um we didn't say Sage. Yeah yeah, Sage, Sorry,

607
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: um yeah about taking Larry Allen. I'm out of the

608
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: Tony Romo, Roger Starbuck, Dak Prescott, you know, cowboys, cowboys business.

609
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: But I feel like when I look at I mean,

610
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: no quarterback was taken. So I look at my top

611
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: I just wrote down my top six and you can go.

612
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: I mean, man, you can go however, however far you

613
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: want to, to be honest with you, because we haven't

614
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: taken one. So that, to me is the biggest curiosity

615
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: is how that will unfold. And I've just got to

616
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: make sure I don't pin myself into a corner because

617
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: I just look at a couple of Frances and go, man,

618
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, I really, I really don't know. So

619
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: so I gave the rundown of yours what Dion Sanders

620
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 1: from the Falcons, Lawrence Taylor from the Giants. I think

621
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 1: I got the greatest cover corner and one of the

622
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: greatest pass rushers of all time. Then I got Jim

623
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: Brown from the Browns, Bruce Matthews from the Oilers, Walter

624
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: Jones from the Seahawks, Calvin Johnson from the Lions, Reggie

625
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: White from the Eagles, and Forrest greg from the Packers.

626
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: So I like, I'm sitting. I think you're a very

627
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: still loser in this game. There's no no I think

628
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: I think people will think will look at yours and

629
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: go yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Dion lt Jim Brown, you

630
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: got the Jim Brown. I'm expe you are familiar with them.

631
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: I went with the I'm gonna build my offensive line.

632
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,479
Speaker 1: That's so you know, people are like, hell, you took

633
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: Tony of course here in Houston because Tony Biselli is

634
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: some kind of bad word. And here there's a strategy

635
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: to this and you're following I think a sound strategy.

636
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: You're you're getting like the tough franchises out of the way. Yeah,

637
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: now there are still a few to handle, but I

638
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,439
Speaker 1: look at and go, I've got multiple names for all

639
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,359
Speaker 1: my franchises. Oh and also, like you said, we still

640
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: have to draft a punter and a kicker, So I

641
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,360
Speaker 1: think we might draft a putter from the same franchise,

642
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: to be honest, but that's I don't want to give

643
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: anything away, but we could. We'll see. See. I took

644
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 1: my punter off the board when I took Reggie White

645
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: because I was thinking about I'm not joking, I'll think

646
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: about taking Randall Cunningham. Oh yeah, I did late in

647
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: this process, but I was like, uh, he's too dang good.

648
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 1: I'm not don't don't don't. So I might have just

649
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: given you an idea. No, no, I mean, listen, I'm

650
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 1: thinking about this. I split up my team fifteen offensive players,

651
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: fifteen defensive players, and do specialists. That's how I split

652
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: it up. So there's more. Also that your long snapper

653
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: out of the way because J. J. Watt, yes, at

654
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 1: times has been on the depth chart now like not

655
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 1: high on the depth raper, like the third long snapper.

656
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: He's capable of doing that. So I got a lot

657
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: I feel with my offensive line in place, a lot.

658
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: I think Stevenson can't handle that, and we'll go from there.

659
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's gonna be interesting. I think the next

660
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 1: eight through sixteen becomes really interesting and I want to see.

661
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: My curiosity is how you will attack the younger franchises,

662
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: the Texans, the Panthers, the Jags. How you go about

663
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: looking at those franchises. That's gonna be interesting to me. Oh,

664
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: this is gonna be fun. But I like my offensive

665
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 1: line how it's come together. Now I gotta start getting

666
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,959
Speaker 1: my skill players mixed in. And I have a pretty

667
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 1: salty team up front. There's no doubt about that. All Right,

668
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: we get back Drew and I also talked about players

669
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: that have the potential to be where the Texans are

670
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: picking right now at sixty seven. We had one a

671
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: few of them that I saw at the Senior Bowl.

672
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: Do that next right, You're in Texans All Access Undraft

673
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: Wednesday edition. Wednesday Edition, Wednesday edition. We'll follow a segment

674
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 1: this Wednesday dation the Texans All Access. I'm eros John

675
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 1: Harris Football and also side of the Reporter, and the

676
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: Texans had one transaction day. They actually added a Quisenberry

677
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 1: to the roster. No, not David who was with the

678
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: Texans originally who had a chance to interview that Scott

679
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: the middle brother, who I also interviewed at the Senior Bowl,

680
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: but Paul tight End who be able to Patriots. He

681
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: is now a Houston Texan glad to see him here,

682
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 1: and hopefully we have a chance to complete the trifecta

683
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: of Quisenberry interviews interviewing Paul at some point. But Paul

684
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: Quisenberry a Houston, Texan. Okay, he's added. There will be

685
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: rookies added, and the first one is that sits now

686
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 1: is at number sixty seven in the draft. Drew asked

687
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 1: me this week who I thought were some of the

688
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: players that could potentially be there at that spot in

689
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: the twenty one draft. There are a lot of different

690
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: ways to go with this. From the Senior Bowl or

691
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: a couple of guys that I really enjoyed watching and

692
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: I felt like, man, they would be really good. There's

693
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: we've talked a lot about this offensive line. I don't

694
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: think the offensive line played up to its capability last year.

695
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 1: There were some moving parts and some injuries, all that

696
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: kind of stuff, so to me, and there's been some

697
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 1: talk about what to do on the interior. I thought

698
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,439
Speaker 1: there were there were three players at the Senior Bowl

699
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,280
Speaker 1: that I think could could be around at sixty seven.

700
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,439
Speaker 1: One probably more intriguing than the others. But the two

701
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 1: names people may know. Number one is Trace Smith from

702
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: out of Tennessee. Not to me, he's a top twenty talent,

703
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: but there have been a lot of different things that

704
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 1: have happened to Tray Smith. He's had some medical issues,

705
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: some injuries. I think that's sort of kind of stunted

706
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: his progress over the years and really kind of kept

707
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: him from hitting his ceiling. And I think he is

708
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: a top fifteen, top twenty talent, but I think he

709
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 1: might get into that third round because he just hasn't

710
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: kind of polished up his full game. So Tray Smith,

711
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: a guard from Tennessee who is I really like him.

712
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: I just don't know whether he's going to fall teams

713
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: are gonna fall in love with him because of all

714
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: the issues that he has had. The other one is

715
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 1: Creed Humphrey from out of Oklahoma, but a lot of

716
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: football in the Big Twelve. He's a former wrestler and

717
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 1: when you watch him, you kind of like, yeah, okay,

718
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: and then you keep watching You're like yeah, man, wow, okay,

719
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 1: and you will keep watching like, boy, he's really good. Yeah,

720
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: he's very good. And that was kind of the way

721
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 1: I felt at the serio. I've seen him play a lot,

722
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 1: and I texted the buddy in my right befoot. The

723
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl started, and I said, I said, what do

724
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: you think about Creed Humphrey. Yes, I said, I can't

725
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: figure it out. He goes he's that kind of like

726
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: you kind of couldn't figure it out. The more I

727
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: watched him at the Senior Bowl, the more it was

728
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,800
Speaker 1: like the way he played Oklahoma. And I think Creed

729
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: could be around at the top of the third round. Now,

730
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: I do think he maybe sneaks in the back in

731
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: the second, but he's a center, and I don't know

732
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: that teams are gonna get all excited about a center

733
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: in the first couple of rounds, and so maybe Creed

734
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: is there at sixty seven. Now the third guy, I

735
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: save it, Save it, dude. We don't want to go

736
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: all the way. We don't want to shoot all our

737
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: bullets at once, man. And I want to say a

738
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: little something about Creed. Okay, Hey, he's a center and

739
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: he wore fifty six. I like that. Yeah, I like that.

740
00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:57,800
Speaker 1: Normally that's like a linebacker. That's a dude that's wearing that. Yeah,

741
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: I like that. And then Creed Humphreys better than Creed Bratton. Oh, Now,

742
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 1: that's a good question on the field yes, with a guitar. No,

743
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: working at dunder Mifflin, Yes, working a website. Probably not.

744
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 1: So there's all that. Now. The one I wanted to

745
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 1: get to, Drew is this last one is a guy.

746
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: I think that it's funny because I thought about you

747
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: a lot, because first of all, just a whale of

748
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: a football player. But also I thought about Drew's dozen

749
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: with Quinn Miners from University of Wisconsin Whitewater. Make sure

750
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 1: you put the Whitewater part on there. We talked about

751
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: him last week, Yes, and he is love. I love

752
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: this guy. I love watching him, Drew. I think people

753
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl film love with him and his story.

754
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: To me, it's kind of interesting because we see players

755
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: from big schools all the time. They declare early, the

756
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: Penn States, the Ohio States, the USC's, the Texas. These

757
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 1: guys go through years and then they declare right. So

758
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: Miners declared early from Wisconsin Whitewater and he really. It

759
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 1: caught my attention one day because somebody that I follow

760
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:16,960

Speaker 1: excited about this. And Drew he did the same thing.

772
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: He was going against Patrick Jones from pitt and Patrick

00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 1: Jones try to work a move called the cross shop,

774

00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: basketball maneuver kind of all in one. It's really kind

776
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: of become the rage for a lot of really good,

777
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: agile pass rushers. And Jones tried to work this move

778
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: on Miners and Miners put him in a turf and

779
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: I was like, and I mean, that was just one

780
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 1: of many. And he wore his shirt up the whole time,

781
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: like showed he showed belly, like it didn't matter this belly,

782
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: and he loved it. And he had one of the

783
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 1: funniest moments to see you. Was watching for far and

784
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: I watched the running back walk up to him and

785
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 1: then you can tell they were talking. And then I

786
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: see the running back kind of point like point, and

787
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 1: then you see Miners kind of grab his belly. So

788
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: the running back was kind of pointing at his bellet

789
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: Miners just kind of grabbed it, you know, kind of

790
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 1: like the old Philly fanatic would do and shook it.

791
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 1: And I was just like, that's awesome, and that's really awesome.

792
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 1: So I think those guys can be around there. They're

793
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 1: obviously a few other names we can hit that in

794
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 1: feature weeks, but those are the interior a linement that

795
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: I think could be there around sixty seven. I will

796
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: not hold back my love of Quinn Miners. He is

797
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 1: absolutely fabulous to watching a football field and then his

798
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 1: belly just a superstar. You'll love him when you see him,

799
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 1: and I hopefully, I hope one day he'll become a Texan.
