1 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 1: The NFL Draft kicks off four weeks from tonight, and 2 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: there is still plenty to sort out beyond number one. 3 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 1: Our guys Land Zerline and Mark Ross are here tonight. 4 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: I'll tell you which positions boast the best talent and 5 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,240 Speaker 1: which have the least. Tom Brady loves to talk about 6 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: Tom Brady. And you won't believe what Tom Brady is 7 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: saying about Tom Brady now, actually you probably will, but 8 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: we'll still dive into whether Brady really could return to 9 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: a tackle football field. Carson Beck and Emma Johnson will 10 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: definitely be on NFL fields this fall. The first two 11 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: of the most intriguing prospects will be here tonight talk 12 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: about their journeys so far and when they think they could. 13 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: Hear their names called in Pittsburgh. 14 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: Welcome inside with the Insiders alongside Judye Batista, I am 15 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: Tom Pilicero. 16 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 2: Twenty eight days until the NFL Draft. 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: And there is so much work the teams still have 18 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: to do on all of these prospects. That includes some 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: of the visits the teams are doing right now. Omar 20 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: Cooper Junior last scene breaking Gus Johnson's voice on National. 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: TV with that remarkable catch at Penn State. He was 22 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 2: on a visit today with the Cowboys. 23 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: Paying no attention to the fact he wears the same 24 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: number as George Pickens. 25 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: These things probably aren't related. 26 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: Hooper abundantly talented getting a look from Dallas month eight 27 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: free draft visits he has set up so far, and 28 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: while at Texas Tech, it was pro day today David 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: Bailey to go as high as number two in this 30 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: year's draft, the legend of Texas Tech. Patrick Mahomes among 31 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: those on hand. He also did a bench press. No, 32 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: actually that was Jacob Rodriguez who was pumping the crap 33 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: out of that iron behind the scenes, impressing everybody one, two, three, four, 34 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: five six, and not really trusting the guy spotting them here. 35 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I promise you he kept that thing going. Meanwhile, 36 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: not bench pressing each other, but definitely throwing the free grenades. 37 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: The NFL and the NFL Referees Association are not getting 38 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: along very well. It ramped up again last night with 39 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: Scott Green, the NFLRI executive director, put out a statement 40 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: that was so long we decided to just cut it 41 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: down to the first paragraph. Basically, they're not on the 42 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: same page as the NFL. We are still almost six 43 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 1: weeks away from real football. Jeff Miller from the NFL 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: answered today Judy at a time that there is an 45 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: item on the potential voting calendar for next week's league 46 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 1: meeting that pertains to potential workstop bags. 47 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 3: Where do we stay. 48 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 4: Well, we stand that the end of May is the 49 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 4: expiration of the contract with the Referees Association, and they're 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 4: getting nowhere. They have been talking theoretically over the last 51 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 4: two years, and so we are down to the last 52 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 4: eight weeks. It seems very unlikely that there's going to 53 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 4: be a deal before the expiration. Of course, that's still 54 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 4: not the start of the regular season, but there is 55 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 4: contingency planning going on because the season, the NFL season 56 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 4: would start and they need officials on the field. The 57 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 4: voting item that is on the agenda would ask for 58 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 4: permission only in the case of if they are using 59 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 4: replacement officials that people in the command center in New 60 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 4: York at the NFL could change calls, either calls that 61 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 4: are already made on the fields or flags that are 62 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 4: not thrown on the field, so they would basically be 63 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: calling the game from New York. Now, obviously that is 64 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 4: a contingency plan. It's also a pretty strong negotiating tactic 65 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 4: because obviously the on field officials would not like that, 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: and they also know they have the technology to do this. 67 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 4: The technology is far more advanced than it was fourteen 68 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 4: years ago. The last time we had a workstop wage 69 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 4: with the officials. Everybody remembers what a disaster that was. 70 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 4: Everybody would like to avoid that, but there is contingency 71 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 4: planning already beginning in case it happens. 72 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: The NFL has been pushing for some things I think 73 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: a lot of fans would say are common sense having 74 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: your pay be determined in large profile performance, having performance 75 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: not seniority, dictate postseason assignments. But unions exists to defend 76 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: for hours, wages, and working conditions. This dispute stems across 77 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: all of those different things. 78 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: Still time, not time to panic just yet. 79 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: NFL Draft coming up in just twenty eight days, kicking 80 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: off in Pittford. Take a look at lanzer lines position 81 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: group ranking. This is the totality of the quality of 82 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: the talent at the positions, and you can tell by 83 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: how small we wrote quarterback down there at the bottom 84 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: of the screen. What Lance thinks about that group let's 85 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,119 Speaker 1: bring in Lance as well as our Mark Ross. Right now, Lance, 86 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: break down some of these key position groups for me, 87 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: start wherever you. 88 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: Will, Well, let me start. 89 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 5: First of all, the formula I basically give scores for 90 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 5: superstar talent in the position, star potent rather a starter potential, 91 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 5: and in depth at the position. So it's a formula 92 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 5: I created to help really quantify how these groups hash 93 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 5: out every single year. And you know, starting with the 94 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 5: wide receiver group, Wide Receiver Group's been a pretty good 95 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 5: group most of these years. I mean it's pretty steady 96 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 5: and Casey conception as the guy I want to spotlight 97 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 5: here because he is the premier separator in this group. 98 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 5: Really fantastic separating in short, medium, long throwing. You know, 99 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 5: whether it's any of the three levels he can separate. 100 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 5: I think that's something that's going to bode well for 101 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 5: him and especially for a young quarterback. Omark Coop is 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 5: another one I want to spotlight. Plays from a slot 103 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: in Indiana, but I think has the speed and the 104 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 5: ability to play outside as well. He can really get 105 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 5: vertical quickly, has great build up speed and very powerful 106 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 5: with the ball in his hands. 107 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, Lance, I like the way he did the rakings there, 108 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 6: and we did that in draft rooms as well, but 109 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 6: we kind of stacked it by colors where your blue 110 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 6: chip guys, your best, your all pro type players were 111 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 6: blue green with solid or really good starters, red orange, 112 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 6: and so forth. 113 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 7: So you can kind of see all the colors together 114 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 7: to see. 115 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 6: Which position groups were the strongest, and just piggybacking on 116 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 6: your guys there. I'm a pinpoint of Carnel Tape from 117 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 6: Ohio State, of course, who got football fans know him 118 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 6: during the season, but of course it's a combine about 119 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 6: the forty and then mkayle Lemon as well. But Carnell 120 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 6: Tate when you watch him, the nice rich history of 121 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 6: Ohio state wide receivers, and I think he fits in 122 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 6: nicely with some of those guys that have come out 123 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 6: their outstanding ball skills can get vertical. And then McKay 124 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 6: lemon from USC completely different type of receiver who's more 125 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 6: of a slot guy, super tough, quick inside, competitive as 126 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 6: can be. 127 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 7: You know what you're getting from this guy playing and 128 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 7: play out. 129 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 6: But as Lance mentioned, you know this year, I think 130 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 6: these two guys in a typical year with some of 131 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 6: those big time receiver classes of the last few years would 132 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 6: be more of mid to late first round picks, whereas 133 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 6: this year they might be top ten type guys. 134 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: Tom Safety is always a really interesting position with the 135 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: way that things are evolving lance in terms of schemes, 136 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: how different teams see different players fit in. 137 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 3: How do you feel about this class of that position. 138 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 5: It's a really great point. And I think you know, 139 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 5: there's different flavors of safety in every draft, and it's 140 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 5: really becoming even more varied in some ways, more specialized. 141 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 5: Once you find it. It's a good It's a pretty 142 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 5: good safety draft this year. And one of the guys 143 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 5: I want to spilight is Emanual McNeil Warren because he 144 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 5: is a three level safety. He's somebody who can play 145 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 5: down in the box. I think he can play a 146 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 5: robber role in the middle of the field, and he's 147 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 5: got the ability to range. That's one of the things 148 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 5: that you have to watch the tape long enough because 149 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 5: they like to play him downhill. But if you watch 150 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 5: long enough, you'll see the range there. And he is 151 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 5: a punishing hitter. A punishing hitter. Now, if you move 152 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,239 Speaker 5: to aj Halsey, this is a different type of safety. 153 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 5: He's more of a split field safety, someone with terrific instincts, 154 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 5: really recognizes what the quarterback wants to do as a ballhawk, 155 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 5: and he is physible. You can see from his build 156 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 5: now he is built to punish and that's something he 157 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,559 Speaker 5: can really do. He can hit you. But don't sleep 158 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 5: on the ball skills because aj Halsey is a very 159 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 5: dangerous defender on the back end. 160 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 6: I said, like how you said, all the flavors are 161 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 6: at the rise and the success of Kyle Hamilton and 162 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 6: in nickmana Warre last year put defensive coordinators and scouts 163 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 6: moral notice like, Okay, these type of guys can survive 164 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 6: and thrive. Whereas in the past they're trying to figure 165 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 6: out what exactly to do with those type of bigger safeties. 166 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 6: Now teams say, you know what, we can do something 167 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 6: with them. But I'm going to spotlight Caleb Downs and 168 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 6: I don't think there's any other position where there's well 169 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 6: running back as well in Jeremiah Love where it's this, 170 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 6: He's to me is by far and the way the 171 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 6: best safety in the draft. 172 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 7: And just because he can do everything. 173 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 6: I mean, he is so instinctive, he is so smart, 174 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 6: He's always around the football. 175 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 7: He is athletic. He can move, but he can. 176 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 6: Tackle securely, gets everybody lined up. And the biggest praise 177 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 6: that I got a real good friends with is one 178 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 6: of the coaches there at Ohio State said he's the 179 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 6: smartest player he's ever been around. And this guy coach 180 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 6: in the NFL and Colline forever ever the smartest way 181 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 6: he's ever been around. So that's going to bode well 182 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 6: for Caleb Downs come draft night. 183 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: Let's get to that eight point font on the bottom 184 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: of that first board here. The quarterback position lance we've 185 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: all known, has not been highly regarded with in the league. 186 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: It's part of why you've seen teams wanting to get 187 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven draft picks, not twenty twenty six draft picks. 188 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: When you look at this class as a whole, what do. 189 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 5: You see, well, I mean, you know, it's it's pretty 190 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 5: it's pretty self explanatory by this point. I mean, Fernando 191 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 5: Mendoza is the clear number one in my opinion. I 192 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 5: don't think it's really all that close. Tys Simpson for me, 193 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 5: is a clear number two as well. Mendoza. I think 194 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 5: if he's protected, well, if they make protection a very 195 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 5: you know, a priority, in Las Vegas. I think he's 196 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 5: going to be really good. I think that ty Simpson's 197 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 5: got a chance to be pretty good. But there's one 198 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 5: year starters, man, there's not a great history for that, 199 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 5: so I think he's got to be managed properly. Once 200 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 5: you get past those two guys, man, it really drops. 201 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 5: There was a lot of love for Garrett muss Meyer 202 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 5: and Carson Beck and Drew Aller headed into the season, 203 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 5: but the tape is really bumpy on those guys. So 204 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 5: I think that, you know, I just I can't personally 205 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 5: trust them with a top three round pick, and so 206 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 5: I think they're more day three guys that you hope 207 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 5: can kind of redevelop and get their confidence. 208 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 8: Man. 209 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 6: Agree with you on this one too, Lance, And to me, 210 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 6: Fernando's the clear cut number one. But agree, he's got 211 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 6: to be the point guard. You know, he can't be 212 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 6: your league guy, your shoot guard. Let's go get buckets. 213 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 6: He's if he's got the infrastructure, he'll be good, much 214 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 6: like he was at Indiana. And I know the ty 215 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 6: Simpson hype machine is in full effect here, but I 216 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 6: mean that tape is scary for most of that season, 217 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 6: and that upside I just don't see is there. The 218 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 6: guy to me that the wild card is Taylor Green, 219 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 6: who came on the scene for most people at the 220 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 6: Combine when he absolutely destroyed it and set quarterback records. 221 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 6: But when you watch the tape, you see the athletic ability. 222 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 6: Now he can take off and run the movement stuff 223 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 6: that is clear cut. I mean, he is going to 224 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 6: be super dangerous doing that. But what was surprising to 225 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 6: me that he. 226 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 7: Does have vision. He's got poised. 227 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 6: The accuracy comes and goes, but his supporting cast is 228 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,839 Speaker 6: awful and he couldn't. I mean every play he's running 229 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 6: for his life and the receivers let him down a ton. 230 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 6: But when he gets in a system or better infrastructure 231 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 6: with some players around him, I think he has a 232 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 6: chance to flourish because he is still a little bit 233 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 6: raw with some of the stuff he does, but he's 234 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 6: got vision. In boys and toughness, Tom. 235 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: Lancemark, do not move because in a little bit here, 236 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: guys going to be back to talk about the scouting 237 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: of traits in some guys we've seen have a lot 238 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: of success at the NFL level, and maybe how you 239 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: can translate that some of the guys are scouting in 240 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: this year's draft that will include the likes of Joe Burrow, 241 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: Jackson Smith, and Jay But. 242 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 2: What did our guys see on them coming out? Who 243 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 2: could be the next one? 244 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: They'll tell you in just a little bit, But first 245 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: we'll talk to one of those quarterbacks from this year's 246 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: draft class, Carson Beck from Georgia to Miami to who 247 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: knows where next? 248 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 2: Maybe Beck notes we'll ask him right after this on 249 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: The Insiders. 250 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 4: Here's Bucky Brooks's top five quarterback prospects two point zero 251 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 4: or on two point zero are ready for Nanna Mendoza 252 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 4: and number one of course, and then the spotlight number 253 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 4: four on Carson Beck from the University of Miami took 254 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 4: the Hurricanes all the way to the National Championship Game. 255 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 4: And now Carson Beck is here on the Insiders joining 256 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 4: me to Batista and Brian Balding of Carson.

We explored a lot of different things, 492 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:44,719 Speaker 13: and I'm very happily retired. 493 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 14: Let me just say that too. 494 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 13: So I loved being out there playing in the flag game. 495 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 8: I love not getting hit. 496 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 14: I've got a lot of. 497 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 13: Really fun things I'm involved in, and it's never going 498 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 13: to be old, you know, and get old thrown passes 499 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 13: to incredible athletes on the football field. But if anything, 500 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 13: that game reconfirmed to me that I'm very happy in 501 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 13: my retirement. 502 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 3: Let's be very clear about this. 503 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 1: The NFL may love the idea of a nearly fifty 504 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: year old Tom Brady playing football again for the same 505 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: reasons they love Philip Rivers coming back after five years away, 506 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: But they don't like that idea judy because it's explicitly 507 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: against the rules. 508 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 2: But also, he's going to be forty nine years old 509 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 2: by the time this season starts. 510 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 4: Having said that the last time he played, when he 511 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 4: was forty five, he did have career highs in attempts 512 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 4: and completions, So if it was out there, somebody would 513 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 4: take a look at him. 514 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: And we'll keep asking him until he's in his eighties 515 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: at least, because it's Tom Brady. 516 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 3: He's the greatest of all time. 517 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: And why wouldn't you so slightly younger quarterbacks even though 518 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: they might be twenty five or so over themselves based 519 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: upon all the rules in college. 520 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 2: Football right now? 521 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: Headed into the NFL Draft kicking off four weeks from tonight. 522 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: You see one of them, Fernando Mendoza at the top 523 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: of Charles Davis's mock for more on the skeleton of 524 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: this class and much more, Lance Zerline and Mark Ross 525 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: take it away. 526 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, Mark, he's trying to put some people on game here. Okay, 527 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 5: So we're going to move to the quarterback position. I 528 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 5: want to know two traits that you think are very 529 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 5: important for quarterbacks, and then give me one that you 530 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 5: think is a little bit overrated when it comes to 531 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 5: the quarterback. 532 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 6: Sure, Lance, you know you could have scouting reported to 533 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 6: go with fifteen positive trades five to six negative traits, 534 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 6: But I really look for the poise that quarterbacks have, 535 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 6: and then the offset of the vision, off of the pois. 536 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 6: So the poise is when everything's going to haywire around them, 537 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 6: lance they do, what can they do? 538 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 7: How do they handle it? 539 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 6: And the vision is how they can look downfield and 540 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 6: find everybody. And then on the flip side one it's 541 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 6: not as important. It gets talked about all the time, 542 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 6: especially at pro DA's. Is the arm strength and both. 543 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 6: Joe Burrow, to me, is a perfect encapsulation of what 544 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 6: I'm talking out there. When you watch Joe Burrow play, 545 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 6: he manipulates everything, He feels everything around him. He never panics, 546 00:23:56,840 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 6: he never is flustered, and he always goes to his first, second, 547 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 6: and third sometimes fourth receiver or hey, let me get 548 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 6: out of there when I feel stuff. And no one 549 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 6: had ever say Joe Burrow has the strongest arm, but 550 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 6: his timing is anticipation, his touch, his accuracy offset. 551 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 5: Then, so I gotta go hunt Joe Burrow. So here's 552 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 5: what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna get defensive ends. And 553 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 5: this is what I look for when I look at 554 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 5: the defensive ends. I want to see get off. I 555 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 5: want to see somebody who gets off the ball and 556 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 5: can beat the tackle on the first two snaps, because 557 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 5: the quicker you get to the top of the rush, 558 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 5: like Micah Parsons, the better chance you have to turn 559 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 5: a corner flat and go get the quarterback. That's essential. Now, 560 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 5: you don't have to have the greatest get off if 561 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 5: you've got great hands. And that's where TJ. Watt comes in. 562 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 5: When you see TJ. Watt and his ability to utilize 563 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,719 Speaker 5: his hands, I made a big mistake scouting him. I 564 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 5: was worried too much about the get off. I was 565 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 5: worried about beating the people around the corner and bending 566 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 5: and blah blah blah. And then this guy has unbelievably 567 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 5: elite hands and he turns into one of the best 568 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 5: sack artists we have in the league right now. So 569 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 5: those are very important. I think rated a little bit 570 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 5: on that is. Sometimes that's just bull rushes and speed. 571 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 5: The power I think can be a little bit overrated. 572 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 5: If you got an anchor, heavy tackle. 573 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 6: Love that lance, Yeah let me switch. Always had those, Yeah, yeah, 574 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 6: I want to pair of the receivers. I'm gonna go 575 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 6: to receivers too, with two good trades and one bad 576 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 6: to pair with my quarterbacks there. And for receivers it's 577 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 6: what do you gotta do. You gotta run routes, Lance, 578 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 6: and then you got to catch the ball, you know, 579 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 6: and the overrated is the forty time and we've heard 580 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 6: this Cardinell Tate's been the victim of this. 581 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 7: Just pass seas well. He's not fast. 582 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 6: But if you look at the best receivers in the 583 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 6: league right now, Jackson Smith and Jigbo who just got 584 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 6: a ton of money. He's not the biggest, he wasn't 585 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 6: the fastest, but he runs routes and he catches everything. 586 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 6: And it's not just easy catches lances when people are 587 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 6: around him or in traffic or adjusting to catches. And 588 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 6: if you go down the aman Ross Saint Brown's and 589 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 6: the cd Lambs of the world, the Puka nukuas, they're 590 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 6: not straight line fast, run fast forties, they run routes 591 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 6: and they catch the ball. 592 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 5: Lands get open and if your tight window make a 593 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 5: contested catch, those guys stay in the league forever. That's great, Mark, Tom. 594 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 5: That's a little look with the scouting hats we had 595 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 5: on back to you. 596 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: The twenty twenty six NFL Draft now just twenty eight 597 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: days away, and our Bucky Brooks revealing his two point 598 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: oh list of the top prospects by position.

He's played in 896 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 5: every blocking scheme imaginable. Whatever type of scheme you're looking for, 897 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 5: he can do it. He's great on the movie. But 898 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 5: one of the things I really love about him in 899 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 5: the running game is he can get into space, make adjustments, 900 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 5: and get tough blocks that can help spring big running plays. 901 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 5: And that's before we even get to his basketball athleticism 902 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:07,919 Speaker 5: with his pastors. 903 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 4: Baldy, what do you think about Francis now weoah. 904 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,439 Speaker 11: I think a lot about him, Judy, I think about 905 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 11: him all the time, Like that's an anchor right there. 906 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 10: Where do you want to play it? 907 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 2: I don't know. 908 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:22,919 Speaker 11: Lancelike sometimes I think, are we looking at that all 909 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 11: pro guard? 910 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 10: Are we looking at an all pro tackle? 911 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 11: I kind of watch him and he's always on his 912 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 11: feet lands. 913 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 10: He's a big, strong body, he's got a great. 914 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 11: Base, he's never off balance, He's got unusual power. Whatever 915 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 11: you want him to do, do you want to play 916 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 11: him inside? I believe he's an All Pro guard. You 917 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 11: want to play him outside. He's going to protect the edges, 918 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 11: and I feel like the way that Mario Christopaul coaches, 919 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 11: and he's on the offensive line every day, and you're 920 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 11: going up against those Ed's rushers at Miami and there's 921 00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 11: Jason Taylor on the other side breathing fire at you, 922 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 11: like I think he's been well tested for these three years. 923 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 5: At the you I side of it, I'm with you. 924 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:04,919 Speaker 5: I think you could be a pro BAWL pro type 925 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 5: of guard as well, But teams don't like doing that. 926 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 5: They like to start your tackling the guy I want 927 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 5: to talk about, No doubt he was going to start 928 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 5: off the tackle. I was going to stay at tackled 929 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 5: as Blake Miller from Clemson. You're not going to find 930 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 5: many players who have more game experience, more snap experience 931 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 5: than Blake Miller. He's played a ton of time. He's 932 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 5: right tackle, a little bit upright. Not a great vender, 933 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 5: but he is a terrific athlete. The bend doesn't seem 934 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 5: to be much of a problem for him. He's got 935 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 5: thirty four inch arms, which you love to see outside 936 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 5: for a tackle. He's got a little nastiness to him. 937 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 5: He's also someone who can get into space and make blocks. 938 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 5: I talked about it with Fano, but he's an aggressive 939 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 5: down blocker on inside zone and then he can get 940 00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 5: wide and seal the edge playside get your cutoff blocks 941 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 5: on the backside with the outside zone game. So Blake 942 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 5: Miller's a guy I think who's really rising right now 943 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 5: on some team boards during the process. 944 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: Not as much tape on Monroe freely in just a 945 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: one year full time starter balldy, but playing left tackle 946 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: for Georgia and that conference, you see tough opponents every week. 947 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: What do you see about him that you like? Is 948 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: it translates to the NFL? 949 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 11: Well, I think just his overall size and his length 950 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 11: almost six foot eight. You know, he's got long arms, 951 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 11: he's got all the measurables you want. You mentioned just 952 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 11: the one year starting that's the only knock. And I 953 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 11: do think you have to project. 954 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,959 Speaker 10: A little bit with Monroe. He's only twenty one years old. 955 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 10: If you project, you know, two years from now. 956 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 11: Where he's just physically stronger, with a stronger core, understands 957 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 11: the game a little bit better, you might have a 958 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 11: really great perennial pro Bowl player, But you've got to 959 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 11: be a little bit patient because he does have to 960 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 11: get stronger when he does that, and when that happens, 961 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 11: I think you're going to get a. 962 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:41,280 Speaker 10: Very good player. 963 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 5: Look, Baldy, I got a cheat on this whole thing. 964 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 5: I'm going center. I know it's supposed to be a 965 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 5: tackle is a tackle segment, but the centers are so 966 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 5: fun to watch in this draft, and Logan Jones is 967 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 5: one of the most fun. I mean, if Freely needs 968 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 5: more seasoning, Logan's got all the season. He's not a 969 00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 5: problem for He's twenty four years old right now. He 970 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 5: has terrific snap quickness. He can get to any landmark 971 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 5: you need. His his hand placement, his leverage is right 972 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 5: off a teach tape, like it can't get any better than. 973 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 3: What he does. 974 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 5: He's got very repeatable process with his footwork, which is 975 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 5: a hallmark of a Kirk Farns coach team. They're the Joe. 976 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 5: He was a lenchpenner of the Joe Moore Award. You 977 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 5: can see my helmet there, the Joe Moore Award winning 978 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 5: offensive line, and I was the best offensive line in 979 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 5: college football. He was one of the main reasons he's 980 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 5: just such an integral cog and he's a type of 981 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 5: smart center that offensive line coaches are going to absolutely love. 982 00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 5: Forget the fact that he's just a dirt dog that 983 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:34,719 Speaker 5: does his job. 984 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 11: Lance When I watch him, like the hold back, the 985 00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,280 Speaker 11: hook blok is back. 986 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 10: He can gets back from the two technique, the three technique, 987 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 10: We're back. We're back. It's back. 988 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 11: Like I as soon as I watched him, like the hookblock, 989 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 11: we can like we can. Actually he's so quick and 990 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 11: being able to like wheel like that, I'm like, oh goodness, 991 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 11: that point, we're gonna. 992 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 5: Blow past the break, Tom, We're gonna blow past the break, 993 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 5: talking old line. 994 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: Four weeks from tonight, the NFL Draft will take the 995 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: streets of Pittsburgh live APM Eastern Time, Thursday, April twenty third, 996 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,240 Speaker 1: withth Round one continuing for the next couple of days, 997 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: all seven rounds.
