1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:06,280 Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: What's up? Everybody? Welcome to move the sticks, DJ, Bucky 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,600 Speaker 1: back with you, Buck? What is going on? Man another? 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: And everything is good. We're making the rounds. You got 5 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: Pro days kicking off. We're talking about players doing their 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: thing workouts, having to conversations. Now, how much value do 7 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: you placing these workouts versus what we saw way back 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: when we studied the film, and so now it's kind 9 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: of moving season for some. But the good valuators have 10 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: already kind of anchored in their grades and they're slight 11 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: moving on those boards. If they're doing it, I would 12 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: say the right way, which is off the film study, 13 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: not off these workouts and this other stuff hundred percent. 14 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: We are going to have Mike Renner from PF is 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: going to join us here in a little bit. We're 16 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: gonna talk about some of the free agency stuff as 17 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: well as going to spend a good bit of time 18 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,880 Speaker 1: here on Aaron Rodgers and that long I don't know 19 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: if you saw it. I was a long, long, long, 20 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: long appearance on Pat mcview. I didn't see it in 21 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: its entirety. I saw snippets and got what I needed 22 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: out of it. Um, we'll get to that in just 23 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: a minute, but I do want to have a PSA 24 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: little public service announcement here, buck as guys who have actually, 25 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, been on the road with our watches and 26 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 1: Scouts oh gosh, twenty years combined between us. But the um, 27 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: there's a difference between Agent Internet Times, Scout Team times. 28 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: I love it when i see times roll up on 29 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: Twitter and then I've gotten the text message from the 30 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: agent with that time, Like I'm gonna roll with that, 31 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: Like I ain't publishing that. A lot of other people are. 32 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: And so they published these Agent times and then let 33 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 1: me text, let me text the buddy that was there. 34 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 1: And it's amazing how some some four to four oh 35 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: Internet Times magically turned into four four nine. So just 36 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: a public service announcement out there when you see some 37 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: of these times roll out on the Uh. Yeah, I 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: think the platforms just be a little bit cautious there. Yeah, 39 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: you gotta be careful because the times and the timing 40 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: is different, you know, it's the difference. End. Do you 41 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: hold a stop watch when you click it with your 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: thumb or do you click it with your first finger? 43 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: Like that's the thing like to me, that's that's scouting 44 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: one on one. If you're over there timing guys with 45 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: your thumb, that that's a no number problem. You get 46 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: at the trigger finger on it so you get an 47 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: accurate time. And when we talk about timing, when are 48 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: you stopping it? Are you stopping it when the first 49 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: thing cross the line or when the midpoint of the 50 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: body all of that thing goes in. Like people think 51 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: scouts are being sticklers for the timing, but there's a 52 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: certain protocol and procedure that you operate under when your 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: timing guys first movement. Oh that's great that you're trying 54 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: to get this rolling start, But I saw you flinch, 55 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: so the clock is going might as well, might might 56 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: go when you go into forty. All those things matter. 57 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: And you hear people talking about what I don't understand, 58 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: why don't have official times or electronic timing systems all over. Well, 59 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: the electronic timing system you can't pack that up and 60 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: take with you everywhere, and so everyone depends on their 61 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: hand times, and so hand times matter. It is consistent 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: and that is the number that goes on the card. 63 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: And so you have to understand how scouts are thinking 64 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: when it comes to timing, and so that's why you 65 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: can't ignore some of those Internet times they float out there, 66 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: because it's always going to be a little faster than 67 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: what the scouts rock with because we're sticklers. Yeah, a 68 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: little bit a little bit different there on those. All right, 69 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: let's jump in here. Tons of tons of moves here 70 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: in free agency. We'll get some of those here in 71 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: a little bit, but let's start. First of all, Aaron 72 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: Rodgers says it is his intention to play for the 73 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: New York Jets. Before we get into your takeaways and 74 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: everything that he said, Buck, let's have, but let's let's 75 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: work shop the compensation here of what you think this 76 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: compensation should look like. As we're recording this, there's no 77 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: deal in place. It sounds like, you know, they aren't 78 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: on the same page right now, and everybody argues of 79 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: who has the leverage. But what would you say is 80 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: fair compensation for thirty nine year old Aaron Rodgers. I 81 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: don't think you give a pre first round pick for 82 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: any Rodgers just because I don't think he's gonna play 83 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: long enough to get the return of the investment. I 84 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: would give up a two. I would give up two twos. 85 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 1: But I'm not giving up a first round pick for him. 86 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: He's thirty nine years of age. He said out of 87 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: his own mouth, he's ninety percent. He was ninety percent 88 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: thinking of retirement when he went into the darkness before 89 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: he came out and decided to want to play DJ. 90 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if you thought that that was good, like, oh, 91 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: I'm all in. But when you say you're ninety percent done, 92 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: like what kind of level of commitment am I getting 93 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: from the player? I mean, maybe I get this year, 94 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: but beyond this year, I can't count on him being there. 95 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: So because of that, I can't give up a first 96 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: round pick. And I know that. Look, the Packers can 97 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: say they want to hold him into the day before 98 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: the regular season game, and they can, and it does 99 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: complicate matters for the New York Jets, But I can't 100 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: give him a first round pick. I cannot give up 101 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: a first round pick, let alone to think about multiple 102 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: first round picks for a guy that may at his 103 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: best main play two years for us. All right, so 104 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: you went with you went with two two's potentially, Okay, 105 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: So let me give you this is my I've been 106 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: thinking about this, So this is my creative way of 107 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: trying to get this thing done. So you tell me 108 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: what you think we start this year. It's a four 109 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: this year, Okay, for this year. Next year it's a 110 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: two that converts to a one if any of the 111 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: following take place. Four thousand passing yards for Aaron Rodgers, 112 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: they win the division, or they appear in the conference 113 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: championship game, any of those things would trigger next year's 114 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: two to convert to a one. Because the one thing 115 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: you cannot do if you're the Jets, if you part 116 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: with next year's one with no conditions, Buck and your 117 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: thirty nine year old quarterback blows out his knee, shoulder, 118 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: whatever in training camp, and then you potentially have a 119 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: top two pick with two you know, decade plus level starters, 120 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: and next year's draft that we know about there might 121 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: be more. You cannot forego that opportunity. If something happens 122 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: to Aaron Rodgers, you get a one year rent on 123 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, he gets hurt, doesn't play, and you lose 124 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: out on a top five pick the next year. You 125 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: can't take that risk. That's why to me and be like, Okay, 126 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 1: you and maybe it's your choice. Maybe you can have 127 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: a two this year, in a two next year, or 128 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: if you want to you want the opportunity to potentially 129 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: get a one. It will say, okay, yeah, we'll give 130 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: you a one next year. But it's only gonna be 131 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: a one if any of those things happen, because if 132 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers goes for four thousand yards, that's not going 133 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: to be a top five pick. If Aaron Rodgers, if 134 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: they win the division, obviously it's in the twenties, and 135 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: if they go to the conference championship game, you know 136 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: it's it's a later first round pick. So that would 137 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: be the conditions I would want if I was the Jets. Yeah, 138 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: I mean that that makes sense. It makes sense to 139 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: want to use the conditional draft picks because you want 140 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: to build us some insurance to protect yourself because you 141 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 1: do have an aging quarterback. You also want to kind 142 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: of make it where the incentives are maybe likely to 143 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: be earned, but then not necessarily easy. Four thousand yards 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. Stay healthy, I mean, if he 145 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: stays healthy, he should throw for four thousand yards. He's 146 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: gonna throw for four thousands. That's what he's traditionally done. 147 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: And if you're the Jets, you're looking for someone who 148 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: can hit that number. You hit the number, we probably 149 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: won't get to improved even hit that. They haven't had 150 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: a four thousand yard passer since Joe Nameth. That's amazing. 151 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: I mean, how bad is that? It's a lot It's 152 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: not that hard, like four thousand yards like that's a 153 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: lot of utility at the position. That's a lot um. 154 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: But so I if I'm the Jets, I want to 155 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: make sure that it has my bet that I protect myself. 156 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: If I am the Packers, I want to make sure 157 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: that I get rightful compensation for the player. And even 158 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: though we can be a stickler saying we want first 159 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: round picks in those things, they have the luxury of 160 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: being able to kind of sit right now because it 161 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: doesn't appear that there is a chair open for Aaron 162 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: Rodgers elsewhere. But they have to be careful to not 163 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: get too cute in the negotiation. At some point, you 164 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: want this to be done. You want to be done 165 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: because you don't want this hang it over the franchise. 166 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: You don't want to hang it over Jordan Love's head. 167 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: And you know, you just kind of want to part 168 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: ways with Aaron Rodgers and let him go and do 169 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: whatever it is that he wants to do for the 170 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: next year or two before he eventually comes back to 171 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: the franchise and goes in the ring of on and 172 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: does all the stuff that they will celebrate him four 173 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: down the line. Yeah. I mean, I think you put 174 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: together a couple of different proposals, like a menu, and 175 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: send them, send them over to the packers and say, hey, 176 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: you know this is uh this this is the options here, 177 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe another one. A creative way to 178 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: do it is maybe it's this year's two and next 179 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: year it's a three. That could that could convert to 180 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: it two. Um, So he ended up with two twos 181 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: or would you rather have a four and a chance 182 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: to get a one? You know, yeah, because because in 183 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: my mind of the reason why I say two twos, 184 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: because those two, those two twos can turn into a 185 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: one next year, because you can trade those out. You 186 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: can trade those um for someone to make sure that 187 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: you get the first round pick next year. I think 188 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: the biggest thing that came up that conversation was Aaron 189 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: Rodgers saying that he's the best packer of all time. 190 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: He said that out of his own mouth. Yeah, he 191 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: said that. I think that he said debatably. I think 192 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: you said, like the baby bye the best, no disrespect, 193 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: but that's basically what it is. Yeah, most Yeah, he's 194 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: a big fan of Aaron Rodgers of all Time twenty 195 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: eight Hall of famers that played for that organization, twenty eight. 196 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: The trophy is named after the coach, Coach Lombardi, and 197 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: it's a lot of guys. I mean, I love the 198 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: swagon comments. Come on, man, you can't say that out loud, like, 199 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. Um, all right, well, let's uh, let's 200 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: take a break. We'll stick a pin in the free 201 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 1: agency discussion. We're gonna we're gonna revisit that. But we're 202 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: gonna jump into some college right now because we have 203 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: a chance to have really a friend of the network here, 204 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: Mike Renner, who's lead draft analyst with PF and we 205 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: see him on network all the time. Does a great job. 206 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: You know. PF is something that I think every team 207 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: utilizes in some form or fashion. Um, So I'm looking 208 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,839 Speaker 1: forward to getting a chance to visit with Mike. I've 209 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: known him, I known him for a little while, but 210 00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: we've never had a chance to have him on the podcast. 211 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: So let's let's bring them in. What's up fellas on man? 212 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: How are you doing, Bud? I'll doing fantastic. It's my 213 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: favorite time of the year right now. Oh it's the best, 214 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: um all right, So we've we've got to just jump 215 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: right in here. Let's let's get this draft stuff. Free 216 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: agency wise, by the way, how much does that mess 217 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: with you as you as you're trying to get ready 218 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: for the draft and doing all your homework and you're 219 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: trying to identify you know, like I have these little 220 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: cheat sheets that I use like with with needs and 221 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, and then it's like it's 222 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: not worth the paper it's printed on. After free agency, 223 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: right like this whole week I kind of just glaze 224 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: over as all these things are coming. And then next 225 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: week I dive back in and start, you know, redoing 226 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: the needs and the PFF draft got to put out 227 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: a whole sheet with the death charts for every single team, 228 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: and I have to go through and do that and 229 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: kind of evaluate every single player on every teams just 230 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: like feel how good they are where the needs are. 231 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: After that, so it basically pre impost free agency is 232 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: a whole a whole different ball game. It is a 233 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: different ball game, and you know, like, I've been checking 234 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: out you guys list overall. I want to just get 235 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: a field before we go into positions. What do you 236 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: think about this twenty twenty three draft class? What are 237 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,439 Speaker 1: your initial thoughts when you look at the players that 238 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: available to prospects? How deep inteled did you see this class? 239 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: The thing is, I think the positions that are like 240 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: the best positions in the deepest positions are not necessarily 241 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: traditionally like the valuable position. Now. I do like this 242 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: quarterback class. I don't think it's a special class by 243 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: any means, but I think it's one we could look 244 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: back on, like say twenty twenty, where it had Burrow 245 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: Herbert two h Hurts, like no one was calling those 246 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: guys anything, you know, generational about all means, but looking back, 247 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: everyone's like, oh, you know, I really like that class. 248 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: I think we could look at this class similarly. But 249 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: it's a great running back class, great tight end class. 250 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: I think it's also a very good cornerback class, which 251 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: probabs a little bit more valuable position. But like running back, 252 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: tight end or especially offensively, probably called the two least 253 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: valuable positions, or at least two the lost paid in 254 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: the NFL nowadays, so it's not a banner class by 255 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: any means, but obviously there's still talent to go around. 256 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: I haven't wanted to ask you this. We've had a 257 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: chance to visit over the years, but I've I've known 258 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: that this existed, but last year was the first year 259 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: that I dove into it. How much time did it 260 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: take to aid develop the mock draft simulator? And how 261 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: much time have you wasted on this thing after it's 262 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: been up and running? And it's not by the way, 263 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: this is this is talking with general managers in the 264 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: league and they'll send me text messages of screen grabs 265 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: of dude, if this works out like this, we're gonna 266 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: be stoked. Like literally, there's general managers in the NFL 267 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: that are fooling around messing around on the mock draft simulator. 268 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: You can look up and you've you've spent two hours 269 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: on that thing doing mock drafts. I wish I could 270 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: take any credit for it. I am not technically savvy enough, 271 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: but crazily enough, the guy who started Team of Risque, 272 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: who works at PFF, he whipped it together in less 273 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: than a couple of weeks to the initial version now 274 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: what it's become since then. We put some serious I 275 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: resources in and it's obviously evolved since I believe it 276 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: was two years ago when we first debuted it. But 277 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: it's it's pretty dark cool. I have friends who'll text 278 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: me who aren't really like big football draft guys, they 279 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: aren't like into it, and they'll be like, I've done 280 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: over one hundred drafts this week. It really have you seen? 281 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: Like is there? I'm sure you guys can track all 282 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: this right, Like, has there have you noticed just an 283 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: incredible spike once that thing got up and running just 284 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: with traffic. Oh, the traffic we get on that compared 285 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: to any other page, and like the time spent on that, 286 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: It'll be like the average time on that page is 287 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: ten minutes. The average other pagees like thirty seconds. It's 288 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: it's pretty crazy how that keeps people on the best. 289 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: It's the best buck. Have you ever messed with that thing? 290 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: I have not messed with me. I have just love 291 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: hay relationship with mock drafts. But it's it's look, it's 292 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: a necessary evil, and I just get into my head 293 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: so much when when I'm doing it. But I have 294 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: seen it kind of messed. I've seen people go through it. 295 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: I've had friends do it, but I haven't fully dove 296 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: in it, just because I'm trying to waste all my 297 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: time on the mock raft deal. I hate when it's 298 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: like I'm trying to draft for a team and then 299 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: the guy wants not there, and I'm like, Okay, I 300 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: got to restart because the guy one I'm gonna have 301 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: you can't really predict to the other people are gonna drap. 302 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: But I know because it's it's in terms of like 303 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: the rankings. I'm sure obviously you have your input on 304 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: that um, but there's still gonna be guys like I would. 305 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: I would always laugh because it's like, well, there's maybe 306 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: one or two guys that I'm just I'm gonna be 307 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: way higher or lower on than anybody than anybody else 308 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: that you talk to. But I'm like, dude, I can't. 309 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: This guy's there for me in the third round every time. 310 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: I can't just that that is funny. So you talked 311 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: about the quarterback class, and I think there's a lot 312 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: of fascination about the quarterbacks. What are your initial thoughts 313 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: on the quarterbacks and the guys at the top of 314 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: the board. I think this is gonna stop back. I 315 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: think Bryce Young's getting underrated in this discussion. I watch 316 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: his tape and I'm in awe of what he does 317 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: and the way he sees the game, just in you know, 318 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: the annals of quarterback prospects in AFL history. Like, I 319 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: think the way he processes and gets to uh, you know, 320 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: gets to his receivers is exact what you want. I 321 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: think he is a special prospect, and you know, if 322 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: he were ticking the size box measurables, we would be 323 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: discussing him as such. So I don't think it's that 324 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: big a detriment, and especially in the way he plays 325 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: the quarterback position that size, I don't think it's a 326 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: massive impact to his game to you know, look elsewhere 327 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 1: in this draft class to put someone else over him. 328 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: But but then after that, it's kind of a you know, 329 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: ei of the Beholder draft class. It's like, do you 330 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 1: want tools? Did you want like the high end physical 331 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: ability because you're not going to find more than what 332 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson has ever, you know, like he is as 333 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: much as you could possibly put into one human being 334 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: in terms of physical ability. Do you want accuracy? You know, 335 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: decision making, timing, the things that like traditionally have been 336 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: you know what wins at the quarterback position FL that's 337 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: c J Strout to a T. Yeah, I think he 338 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: is ticks all those boxes. I think you saw it 339 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: really well at the combine as well. And then do 340 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: you want kind of athletic upside combined with NFL readiness, 341 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: which is to me Will Webb. I mean, he has 342 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: tools for days in his own right, and I love 343 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: how he operated and two under two different NFL offensive 344 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: coordinators kind of was playing, you know, pretty much from 345 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: behind in all the games he was playing in terms of, 346 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: like a lot of guys weren't going to succeed in 347 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: those situations he was put in. It might get easier 348 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: for him next year in the NFL, which is something 349 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: you can't often say for guys. Very similar to like 350 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: a channel Daniel Jones in that respect, where all of 351 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: a sudden, what he was looking at a dude was 352 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: almost easier than what he was looking at in the 353 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: NFL with the Giants. So I think it's a pick 354 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: your poison after Bryce Young, Yeah, I'm with you on 355 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: Bryce Young on that point as well. I just kind 356 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: of ripped the band aid off. I'm like, dude, if 357 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have him as my second or third player, 358 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: if you're willing to say he's a second or third player, 359 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: you might just making the number one player. So I 360 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: just pushed him up to the very top. And I 361 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: don't know where the flaw is outside of the frame 362 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: because the height even height, I don't care about that, 363 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: but the frame is that's a legitimate thing. And I 364 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: get that you're gonna hold your breath every time he 365 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: gets hit. But if you look at the important traits 366 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: and characteristics of a quarterback, from accuracy, poised to sit 367 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: as you're making playmaking processing, like if you want to 368 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: make the ten things, he's at not like an above 369 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: average level. He's at boardline elite level in all of 370 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: those things. Um, so I'm with you on that one. 371 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 1: I want to go back to the tight ends real 372 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: quick because this has been a fun one. And uh, personally, 373 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: and then in talking to guys around the league as well, 374 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: how do you like the top of the group. Um, 375 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a Dalton Kincaid fan. I've kind of 376 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: put that out there and I'm gonna I'm gonna ride 377 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: that one all the way through. But it's it definitely 378 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: in terms of flavors. It's it's the same at the 379 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: tight end position as the quarterback position. Yes, tight ends 380 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: a unique position because there's just so few difference makers, 381 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: you know, so a few guys that really move the needle, 382 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: and to me, to move the needle, you better be 383 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. You know, you better be able to 384 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: get open. I think that's the big separator between like 385 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: the halves at tight end the have not is the 386 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: guys that can win one on one. You know, if 387 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: you have a guy out there who can't beat me 388 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: on coverage NFL off squares, I'm gonna want that guy 389 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: in a football field out they're down. It's like, so 390 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: you can you go out and beat me at coverage. 391 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: To me, there's two guys in this draft class that 392 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 1: lack I know for sure I can go out there 393 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: and do that. Ones don't Kincaide like you mentioned, I 394 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: think he is a special tight end prospect, and the 395 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: other one's Michael Mayer. Now I don't think it's a 396 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 1: full route tree for Michael Mayer, but if you want 397 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: him to run slants, option routes, those sort of things, 398 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: he can do that till the cows come home. So 399 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: I really like those those two guys at the top, 400 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: and then you've got depth in terms of just like 401 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: athletic projects, whether it's Luke Musgrave, the Oreganst State tight end, 402 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: who you know when he gets up to full speed 403 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: down the football field, he's running away from corners, safeties 404 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: on tape like that unique physical ability, whether it's Sam 405 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: Laporta the Iowa tight end, odiline man he was forgetting 406 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: an electric after the catch as well, Like that's something 407 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: that again, like tight end, the way they're utilized, it's 408 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: you either can you beat man coverage? Well, if you can't, well, 409 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: then can you take underneath flat routes, crossing routes, those 410 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: sort of things and then create after that. I think 411 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: laport is great at that. I think Tucker Craft him 412 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: South Dakota State is great in that regard. I think 413 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: even Darnell watch Ington can do some things after the 414 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: catch that are intriguing. But I do think it's those 415 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 1: two guys at the top that I mentioned. Mayor Kim 416 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: Kaid are the two I'd put firmly in the first 417 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: round conversation that I'd go to bathroom there and then 418 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: just a ton of guys on day two that you 419 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: love their skill sets, you know, and thinking about it, 420 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: you mentioned the cornerback position being one that is loaded. 421 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: You said, very good, not quite great. Who are the 422 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: guys that you love in this class? I really liked 423 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: Devin winnerspoon man come on, and it's so easy talking 424 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: over with this game. And I don't know what happened 425 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 1: to him from early on his career to senior year, 426 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 1: but it was a completely different player this past year 427 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: in what he put on tape. Gosh, I'm getting a 428 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:44,719 Speaker 1: phone call with brutal uh. He just in press coverage 429 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage as feisty a corner as 430 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 1: you'll see in college. Now, what iss that? And so 431 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: I love that part to his game. Obviously we haven't 432 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: seen him test yet, don't really know what he's going 433 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: to be. Undersized, doesn't take like all those boxes. But 434 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: you flip on the tape and no one I better 435 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: take this pass fall. Yeah, he was at the training facility, 436 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: and they're really accurate down there where he was working out. 437 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: I think he was in Frisco mid four fours, you know, plenty, 438 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: plenty fast enough. He's not gonna go out there run 439 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: four three two, but he's mid four fours all day long. 440 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: But the quickness, the you know, the ball skills, the awareness, 441 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: all that stuff's elite, off the charts stuff. So I'm 442 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: a big fan of his as well. Looking at some 443 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: of these other positions. To me, the one that we 444 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: haven't mentioned, I think the four deepest positions we touched on, 445 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: you know, talk about running backs on offense, talk about 446 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 1: tight ends defensively, we touched on the corners. I think 447 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: edge rusher. I've got ten of these dudes in my 448 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: top fifty. And again it's all different shapes and sizes 449 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: and skill sets. We've had this debate. I'd be curious 450 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: just kind of in your own personal evaluating how you 451 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: come down on this. But in a in a league 452 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: where the ball comes out quick, you know some guys 453 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: that can really crush the pocket, Whereas in the past 454 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: maybe you get punished a little bit for being a 455 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: little bit tight, a little bit stiff. But now it's like, man, 456 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: if you're not going to get to at least affect him, 457 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: what are you prioritizing when you're watching edge rushers. I 458 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: think it's explosiveness, right, that's ultimately what wins that you 459 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: base everything else off of that. And so you know, 460 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: if you are explosive, and like you said, if you 461 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: are tight, well then are you long and are you 462 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: flexible in a way like you know, kind of like 463 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: Lucas Vanessa's like, can you get underneath the guy's pads? 464 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: And so this class has a ton of guys in 465 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: that mold of that bull rusher mold, whether it's you know, 466 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: Isaiah Fosky, if nor Dame, whether it's even Zach Harrison 467 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: from Ohiouse State like that. To me, the guys with 468 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: the get off and then the length is what I'm prioritizing. 469 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: If you don't have those two things, you better have 470 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: some electric quicks or some darn good hands because that, 471 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: to me is the combination that wins, and the combination 472 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: that you basically is the baseline if you're going to 473 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: be an edge rush in the NFL. All right, I'm 474 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: a buck. I'm ann jump here one more real quick, 475 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: because this is my I've got my guy, that's my 476 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: third round. Like there's always that third fourth round guy 477 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: in a loaded draft. I just feel like, God, there's 478 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: a sweet spot in there you can get a really 479 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 1: good football player. Do you have a mid round edge 480 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: rusher in a deep group that you really like? Oh, 481 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: mid round edge rusher. We'll give you mine, all right, 482 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 1: go ahead. I love Isaiah McGuire, Okay, Missouri edge rusher. 483 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: I think his flexibility is rare for a guy. I 484 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: think he plays around like two seventy like for a 485 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: guy that bend around the top of the pocket. I 486 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,120 Speaker 1: just think he has a high floor. I'm not sure 487 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: he's not that explosive guy that's gonna go high, but 488 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: I think he has a high floor because of that. 489 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: Because he can get underneath and stack offensive tackles. I 490 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: think you saw that against Rodert Jones when he face 491 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: I was gonna say he got he got underneath Rodert 492 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: Jones in the Georgia game, beat him with power. Um. 493 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: It's an interesting player. Yeah, he's He's able to generate 494 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: power without a runway too. That's the little thing you 495 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: separate some of those guys, some guys that need a 496 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: little bit of runway to get gone. He can generate 497 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: some some any immediate power. Buck my guy, I'm I'm 498 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 1: sticking with us, dude. I've been rolling with him from 499 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: the beginning. Is Jose Ramirez from Eastern Michigan, and he 500 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: blew like all the change of direction stuff, all the 501 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: testing stuff was off the charts. His ten was excellent. 502 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: He ran at four seven three. But he's one of 503 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: those guys who's got you know, he's just under six two, 504 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: he's two hundred and forty two pounds, he's got thirty 505 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: two and three quarter arms. But he's got production. He 506 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: can bend, he's got a lot of a lot of 507 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: tools in his bag. And he's like to me, you're 508 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: gonna get him in the you might get him in 509 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: the fourth round, but he's gonna be a good player. 510 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,880 Speaker 1: He's got shaff Barty esque. Yeah, there you go. That's 511 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,640 Speaker 1: a nice one. I like that. How about that? Look 512 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: at y'all putting out a name. So the kid for 513 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: me was at the especial one game Killer Murphy popped up. 514 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: And the only reason is because DJ knows that I 515 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: have a thing about sack production and how sack production translates. 516 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: And you watch him at a small school and he dominates, 517 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: and he comes off the as and he does all 518 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 1: the stuff and so on the heels of James Houston 519 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: having a lot of success following the similar path. I'm 520 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: thinking day three, bottom of day three. He comes in, 521 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 1: he comes off the boy, he finds like a little role. 522 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: He becomes that situational pass for Rush that everyone is 523 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: looking for, one of these sub packages. I like that 524 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: one book. I like that one. You get my hands 525 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: on the Fair State tape. Oh dude, I'll tell you 526 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: what the who was it. There's one team, there's one 527 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: dude here. Um oh, now I gotta now, I gotta 528 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: find it. He's gonna drive me nuts. But I literally 529 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: in my notes when I was watching him, it was 530 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: a small school guy. Wasn't Yeah, no, it wasn't Fair State. 531 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: But there was another one with a small school guy. 532 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: And that was funny because I was talking to a 533 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: buddy with another team and I'm like, dude, I'm trying 534 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: to watch this guy. And it was one of those 535 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: deals where they have like black numbers on black jerseys 536 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: and they don't have a scaffolding. So the end zone cut, 537 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's like watching gopher cam like that. It's 538 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: so low. I can't see over the offensive lineman to 539 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: see him when they're on that one, they're on that 540 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: side of the field. And then I was talking to 541 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: a buddy with a team, and I'm like, dude, I'm 542 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: trying to watch this guy. I can't even find him. 543 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: I don't even know where he is. And he's like, 544 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: our head coach just came down and said the same thing, 545 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: because we had given him to watch him. And he's like, 546 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: I've been watching for fifteen minutes. I don't even know 547 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,360 Speaker 1: where he is. They can't find him on the tape. Um. 548 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: But that's one of those things as a program. I 549 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,479 Speaker 1: don't care if you're any I a division three, Division two, Like, hey, 550 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,239 Speaker 1: let's just get a little investing, a little gotta get 551 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 1: elevated a little bit.

We don't have big apps, yeah, just 554 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: just simple little contrast, so we check out the numbers, 555 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: little trim so we can really see all the numbers. 556 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: I've faded into the thing just a little bit on 557 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: just for the film. It looks cool up close, but 558 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: on film it's a it's a challenge. Yeah, Mike, what's 559 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: your put You gotta put the band on the identical. 560 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: Nothing worse than an entire secondary where they all have 561 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: dreads and all were come on, guys killing me, Man, 562 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: you're absolutely killing me.

What's your favorite 565 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: part least favorite part of this gig? I think my 566 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: favorite part is just watching the tape. Like I think 567 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: it's so that feeling they were of excitement that you 568 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: get when you, like see a good football player, when 569 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: you see a guy who's like special in some way, 570 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: shape or form, you just get excited about it. I 571 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: don't know I've been that way ever since, you know, 572 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: I was a kid watching guys in college. So I 573 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 1: think that's my favorite part. I think my least favorite part, 574 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: and it's really not even close, is repeating myself. You 575 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: guys have to know you repeat yourself in this role 576 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: zillier times from now until the draft, because like there's 577 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: no new stuff to say about guys. Sometimes it's like 578 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: this is who they are. I got to say the 579 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: same thing every time, or else I'm lying to myself 580 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: or lying about who they are. So you kind of 581 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: have to repeat yourself when you talk about guys. Probably 582 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen times before the draft, all right, this 583 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: is my this is my one piece of knowledge I'm 584 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: going to pass on to you free of charge. That 585 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: it's going to be that you're gonna love this because 586 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: we did this when I was in Baltimore. Every year 587 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: at training camp, we would have a scouting term session. 588 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: So it was literally really free flowing. We would just 589 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: name a position, all right, go words, descriptions, boom boom, boom, 590 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: boom boom, and then you would end up grabbing, you know, 591 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: as you're getting ready to go out into the fall 592 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: and hit the road, you end up grabbing like I 593 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 1: remember one year, like the term as a tackler, stopping power. 594 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: Like one of the guys use the term stop.

You could make 607 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: a template. You can make a template like back in 608 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: the day for like the stiff fullback, Like you know, 609 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: he's not report in the system, so let me just yeah, 610 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: here we go. That's my that's my one, free of charge. Mike. 611 00:27:58,720 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: I think you guys will you'll come up with a 612 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: couple new ones. I used to have. You had on Facebook. 613 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: You had a whole list of scouting terms, but then 614 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: it went away. It was like the link that I 615 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: had saved it's no longer active. I've definitely stolen a 616 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: bunch from that past. Yeah, that's terrible. I gotta be honest. 617 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: I never really logged onto Facebook, but it used to 618 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: be where you could if you're going to post something 619 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: on one of the other platforms, who would have a 620 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: little drop down like, hey, add to Facebook. Maybe was 621 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: Instagram or something. But then I forgot my it asked 622 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: for my Facebook password. Haven't known it in years, so 623 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: I don't know that I've had anything that's made its 624 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: way to Facebook, which is gonna be really disappointing to 625 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: all my you know, to my my parents and that 626 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: everybody else who's on who's on Facebook. Yeah, anyways, Hey, 627 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: what what are you most looking forward to with this 628 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: draft class as we get to April? In terms of 629 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: the intrigue, where's the intrigue in this draft? For you, Mike, 630 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: it's a quarterback landing spots. I mean, for the Panthers 631 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: to trade up to one and there's still not to 632 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: be you know, a guy that we know who's going 633 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: number one. Overall, I think that's always, you know, that's 634 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: good for us that people are going to be watching 635 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: us more listening to who's going to be drafted. But 636 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: I do think that's ultimately what I think it's most intriguing. 637 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: And then the second thing that's intriguing to me is, 638 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: and we actually I think talked about on twitters, there's 639 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: a lot of tiny prospects in whether it's even Bryce Young, 640 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: whether it's you know, Deucevawns of the world, Like, there 641 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,479 Speaker 1: are guys who are uniquely small for their respective one 642 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty six pound corner that might be my 643 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: favorite player in the whole draft. Yeah, it could be 644 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: a first rounder six pounds like that there are uniquely 645 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: small dudes who are still very very good, who not 646 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: only to see where they come off the board and 647 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: how the NFL values them, but then like, can they 648 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: actually play in the NFL? Like, is that the way 649 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: the game is going nowadays? The size kind of getting 650 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: thrown out the window at some position. So I think 651 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 1: that's one of the most intriguing stories. Still, it is 652 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: an intriguing story. Djena always talk about like size and 653 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 1: how size matters, and we both have heard Nick Sabers quote. 654 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: We talked about there's a reason why you don't put 655 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: in middle weights in the ring with heavyweights, and as 656 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: we see with the smaller guys, and you worry about 657 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: durability concerns with small corners, can they tackle guys in space? 658 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: This will be interesting to see who goes where in 659 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: this class, but to see how they play and if 660 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: it is kind of like the sign of a sea 661 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: change in terms of how we value size and dimensions 662 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: and prototypes and all those trades that we've always coveted 663 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: for so long. That's great. Well, this has been fun man, Mike. 664 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 1: It's great to catch up with you. I enjoy our 665 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: We have brief visits where we'll see each other in 666 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: an All Star game or at the combine. But man, 667 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: you do a good job. I've i've you know, I 668 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: use PFF for all my cutups when I want to 669 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: get a chance to watch cutups on Ultimate. And the 670 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: business is incredible that you guys have built. But I 671 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: know behind that as a lot of work in terms 672 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: of the hours you put in, and in much respect 673 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: to you for that, and look forward to chatting as 674 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: we get a little bit closer to the draft. Will 675 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,479 Speaker 1: catch up again. Man, I appreciate fellas. You guys are 676 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: the best. Thanks all right, thanks buddy, appreciate you man, 677 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: But great to catch up with Mike. You know, I 678 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: I have respect for him, but it spends the time 679 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: that he spends and there's there's others out there as well. 680 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: It just spends so much time studying these guys, and 681 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: it's not as something you can fake. You can't go 682 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: out there and have strong opinions and have the inability 683 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: to back it up. He does the work and I 684 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: respect that now he does. They do a ton of work. 685 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: PFF does great work. We talked about it. You talked 686 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: about ultimately being able to look at the clips and 687 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 1: all the other stuff, the rating system that they utilize, 688 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: and the work that he does in terms of looking 689 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: at all these draft prospects, and he and his colleagues 690 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: putting out these lists. They make for compelling thoughts. And 691 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: you know, for us, I am all about like being 692 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: a part of the think tank where you kind of 693 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: take information, you look at it, and even if you 694 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: agree or disagree with the opinion, it makes you go 695 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: back and do some more work to make sure that 696 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: you feel good about the stance that you're going to take. 697 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: Because we're coming down to it path on the draft 698 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: is coming. We're continue to dig down deep in the podcast, 699 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: and you just want to know that what you're about 700 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: to say or what you're saying and for the masses 701 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: to hear that you feel great about it. And so 702 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: sometimes it does help if you kind of do a 703 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: recheck to go back and look at your nose and 704 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: look at the tape and make sure that you feel 705 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: good about your opinion, no doubt. Um, all right, let's 706 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: circle back here to some of his pro stuff. UM. 707 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,959 Speaker 1: Couple couple signings here. Orlando Brown to the Cincinnati Bengals, 708 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: continues to bet on himself, continues to believe in himself. 709 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: I actually send him a direct message last night just 710 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: congratulated him because I feel like this has kind of 711 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: been his thing throughout his whole career. Now coming out, 712 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: he posted some clips from the combine working brief. Um 713 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: didn't have a good workout there, but just kind of 714 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: keeps he keeps kind of proving people wrong. Now people 715 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: can debate and argue, you know, is he a top three, 716 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: top five? Whatever? All I know is dude continues to 717 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: get paid. He's got to he's got a stab throw 718 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: on the his on his finger and now he's getting 719 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 1: ready to go to his third team and uh and 720 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: God bless him and keeps believing in himself. Look, four 721 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,080 Speaker 1: time pro bowling, and you can take that for what 722 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: it is, but you recognize as being one of the 723 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: best amongst your peers. Four time pro bowler, one time 724 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: Super Bowl champ, who has been paid. He got big 725 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: paid thirty one you know, signing bonus and all the 726 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: money that he cashed in forgetting to the Cincinnati Bengals. 727 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. And then reading his statement, he just 728 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: talked about continuing the legacy of his dad, but also 729 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: just how important it is for him to play left tackle. Now, 730 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: you and I may have a proper conversation saying it's 731 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: debatable whether he really is a legitimate left tackle in 732 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: terms of like the skills and the traits and those things. 733 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: But he bettered himself. He had an opportunity to do 734 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: it in Baltimore, he replaced Stanley and then bounced to 735 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 1: Kansas City. Kansas City put him back at left tackle. 736 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: He held his own. He loves that. And then you 737 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: have an opportunity in Cincinnati to do it. And so 738 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: I give him credit for not only betting on himself 739 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: and believing in himself, but making an happen because in 740 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: this league where you have to show improve, he certainly 741 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: has proved himself worthy to be a guy that's collected 742 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: to big contracts for his work between the lines. Yeah, 743 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, So good for him. Some other things 744 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: that came down. The Eagles brought a bunch of dudes back. 745 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: They get Fletcher Cox back, they get James Bradbury back. 746 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: They were going to release Darius Slay, then that didn't happen. 747 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 1: They work things out, so he's going to be back 748 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: as well. So they bring a lot of key players 749 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: back there. The Cowboys move on from Zeke Elliott. They 750 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: also trade for Stefan Gilmore, who's one of those rare 751 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: guys who I think Stefan Gilmore's age pretty well, you know, 752 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: for a corner on the other side of thirty, still 753 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: playing at a high level. Yeah, Stefan Gilmore at his 754 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 1: age pretty well because he understands exactly who he is 755 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: as a player. He knows his deficiencies and he always 756 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: puts himself in a position to not allow those deficiencies 757 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: to be exposed. And as he transitioned, it helps that 758 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,479 Speaker 1: he's going to be playing with Trayvon Diggs, He's gonna 759 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 1: be out side, he get a lot of work. But 760 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: dan Quinn has done a really good job of building 761 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 1: his defense and the defense is very similar to Gus Bradley. 762 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: So for Gilmore, I think he will enjoy the same 763 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 1: kind of success that he enjoyed in Indianapolis with the 764 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: Cowboys because it's a very very similar system. For Zekiel Elliott, 765 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: I think this is the story of the running back 766 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 1: and we talked about it and people have been trying 767 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: to kind of shoe Ezekiel Elliott out the league, but 768 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:12,240 Speaker 1: this is kind of the the lifespan of a marquee 769 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: running back in this league. Zekie Elliott got seven seasons. 770 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: Zekiel Elliott was drafted as a first round pick. I 771 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 1: come from a school a thought when we were to 772 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, find a great running back, draft him high, 773 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: run him to the wheels fall off, and then find 774 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: another one. Ezekiel Elliott was basically the example that we 775 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: would use in terms of how we did it in 776 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: Carolina when we had Stephen Davis and Deshaan Foster, DeAngelo Williams, 777 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart. That is how it goes. And so I 778 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: know we've reached the time where running backs aren't valued 779 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 1: high like that, but there's still the difference between like 780 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: that marquee running back like a Bijean Robinson and some 781 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: of the other running backs that we'll see. And so 782 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see Ezekiel Elliott being dismissed now. I'm 783 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: curious to see the impact that it will have when 784 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: people having our tune they look at Bijon Robinson and 785 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: where that he's come off the board. Because you've talked 786 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: about him being a top five talent, maybe top three 787 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: on your list, He's RB one for me. But where 788 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: does he hear his name called? Because in the past, 789 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: a top ten talent, the top three talent, he would 790 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: come off the board within the top ten. Now we're 791 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 1: talking about well, maybe he gets called in twenties. It'd 792 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 1: be interesting to see how the value of running backs 793 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: has plummeted based on where Bijon Robinson is drafted. Yeah. No, 794 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: it's going to be one of the big storylines keep 795 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: an eye on in the draft. I think again, you know, 796 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: I'm not going to criticize anybody for taking that dude. 797 00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: I think he's such an elite player as a great player. 798 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 1: I want to get your thoughts on this one, Buckers, 799 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: we kind of bring this to a close. I'm a 800 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 1: big fan of themes and off seasons. When you're with 801 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: a team, you get a chance to finish the season, 802 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: take a month, evaluate your own roster, evaluate your season, 803 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,280 Speaker 1: and then to me, I think you can give yourself 804 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 1: kind of an offseason theme of what we want to pumpish. 805 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: Let me give you some examples of that. You might 806 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 1: get back at the end of the year and say, 807 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: you know what, we're not physical enough, Like we've got 808 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: to bring in more physical players, and we've got to 809 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: do a better job of developing some physicality in the 810 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,399 Speaker 1: group that we have. You know, we're not versatile enough. 811 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 1: We got we got injuries last year and we just 812 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: we were screwed. We didn't have different pieces we could 813 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,880 Speaker 1: move around. We got to get some more versatile players, 814 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 1: be that in the secondary of the offensive line. You 815 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: know what, We've got to get smarter, man. Look at 816 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: all the penalties we had, look at some of the 817 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: dumb pre snap stuff that we messed up. We just 818 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: got to get a smarter football team. And finally, I'll say, 819 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: and this is what I want to get to as 820 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 1: the Giants, and talking with those guys we've got, you know, 821 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 1: we've both got all. We know those guys really well, 822 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,800 Speaker 1: they're like, we're slow, man, Like, we have got to 823 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: get faster and more dynamic on offense. So what do 824 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: they do while they get say Quon on the franchise 825 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: tag to make sure your most explosive players back. They 826 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 1: trade for Darren Waller, who, even though he's been beat 827 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 1: up a little bit, still one of the faster, most 828 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: athletic tight ends in the NFL. And as of today 829 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago, as we're recording here, they signed 830 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: Paris Campbell, who hasn't worked out yet. Paris Campbell's a 831 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 1: low four three all day, every day. Get the ball 832 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: in his hands and let him go. I think that 833 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 1: they had a theme of what they wanted to accomplish, 834 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: and they're going to still have the draft to continue 835 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: on that way. But I think that gives you some 836 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: directions that make any sense at all. Absolutely makes sense. 837 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: You want a faster team because a faster team produces 838 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,760 Speaker 1: more explosive plays offensively and defensively. You want to surround 839 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, but a track team because all the attention 840 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: is still gonna be on sa Quon Barkley in the backfield. 841 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: So you want to be able to take advantage of 842 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: the one on one coverage on the outside, much like 843 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson has been able to have those opportunities to 844 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: push the ball down the field because everyone is focused 845 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,800 Speaker 1: on that quarterback running back mesh point in the various 846 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: reads and power reads and zone reads at the Giants execute. 847 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 1: You want Speaster's on the perimeter in the passing game 848 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: to take advantage of that. And so Bryan day Ball 849 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: wants more points. He wants a more productive office when 850 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 1: it comes to delivering the explosive plays. The only way 851 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: that you do that is you have to put explosive 852 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: athletes on the perimeter to take advantage of what the 853 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: looks are that the defense gives you. Yeah, no, I know. 854 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 1: And Brian day Ball and one of the jobs that 855 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: he interviewed for as a head coach, Um, there was 856 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: a team in the division um that was that was 857 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: a really good football team, and I know he went 858 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: in there and his sales pitch was like, dude, we're 859 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: gonna hang fifty on that team. You know every time 860 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: we play it, you know what I mean. Like he's 861 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: got that, he's got the confidence, but he's also got 862 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 1: the background. I mean, I think it comes from in Buffalo. 863 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,320 Speaker 1: What they did in New England. Like New England was 864 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: the bully on the block. And how many times we've 865 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: seen teams come in and say, we know what we're 866 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: gonna we gotta set our sights onwa We're gonna compete 867 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: with New England. And Brian Dayball is like, forget that, 868 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna blow him off the field and we're gonna 869 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: hang And that's what we're not. We're not gonna yeah, 870 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: we're not gonna back down, We're gonna go right at them. 871 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: And you know, there's there's a I think there's a 872 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 1: book by a guy who was squash coach, like Nasty Brunown, 873 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 1: and he talked about run to the and how lions 874 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: when they hunt like they put the old beat up 875 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: lying out front and she roars and you run away 876 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 1: from it. You run to the woods. Whereas the people 877 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: who really understand that, they run to her because she's 878 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: the weak link. And so Brian day Ball and some 879 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 1: of these coaches that understand the way that you beat 880 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: the bully is you go right at them. Do you 881 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,439 Speaker 1: don't run away from them? So you build a team 882 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 1: that is constructed to deal with them. And so we 883 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: talk about the speed. Fact that we talk about the 884 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 1: explosive athletes that the Giants are bringing, well, that's done 885 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: directly in relation to the Philadelphia Eagles, because the Eagles 886 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 1: are now the bully on the block and the way 887 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: that they played and the way that they had to 888 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 1: deal with them twice a year. He wants to build 889 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: a team to deal with what they have upfront. And 890 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 1: so if you can't go at them physically, you got 891 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: to be able to run around them. And so some 892 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: of that is the speed factor, take advantage of some 893 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,479 Speaker 1: of those matches that they have on the perimeter, no doubt. 894 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: All right, this has been a fun one. Again. Want 895 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: to thank our thanks go out to Mike Rinner from 896 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: PFF for joining us spending some time with us there. 897 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: If you haven't done it, by the way, Buck, you 898 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 1: gotta get on this thing, this PF Mock Draft simulator, 899 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: because you can just pick a team.
