1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: And now Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 1: What's up, everybody, Welcome to Move the Sticks, presented by 3 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: the U. S. Marine Corps DJ Bucky here and Bucky. 4 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: We gotta put seatbelts on today because we got a man. 5 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: We got a fast, thrill ride of a show today. 6 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: I mean, we've got a lot of stuff going on. 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about perfect pairs NFC East and NFC South, 8 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna give you my favorite mid round edge rush. 9 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: And in between the we're gonna talk to two of 10 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: the best receivers in this draft class. Two guys. I 11 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: don't think we'll go on around one, but we're gonna 12 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: hear very early on Day two. Uh, second or third 13 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: round big time players there and z Jones from East Carolina. 14 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: Chad Hanson from cal but one of one of the 15 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: better vertical receivers in this draft class. But Buck, I 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: think we got to talk about some breaking news that 17 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: we have. And I say breaking, It's been breaking for 18 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: a while, but now it seems like, Okay, this is 19 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: really gonna happen with Marshawn Lynch and the Raiders. Yeah, 20 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: it seems like Marshawn Lynch and the Raiders are negotiating 21 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: the deal. The Seahawks and the Raiders are working to 22 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: negotiate a trade. UH. From the Oakland Raiders standpoint, this 23 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: is exactly what you've been looking for. You lose let's 24 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: a Smury in free agent. You let him go, but 25 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: you get a chance to bring back a hometown hero. 26 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch gives them exactly what they need in the backfield. 27 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: Big physical, punishing runner who is an underrated leader and 28 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: a great teammate. He could help them get over the 29 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: top in the f C West. And that's our insider, 30 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport who's been dropping the knowledge about this. It 31 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: looks like it's gonna happen, looks like it's gonna go down. 32 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. It takes him out of the running 33 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: back market completely. I think they need to add another 34 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: back Bucky, but I think in this draft that's loaded fourth, 35 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: fifth round, you can find a guy well. I think 36 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: it takes some of the pressure off. They don't have 37 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: to expand a first round pick to get a runner back. 38 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: I still think they can go and get one in 39 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: the second round that can serve as an apprentice to 40 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch. You have to understand when you take Marshawn Lynch, 41 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: you're not necessarily getting him to be a three D 42 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: carry back. You're getting him for the stretch run December 43 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: January when it kind of gets thick and you want 44 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: to take a little pressure off Derek Carr to not 45 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: have to carry the entire team. You want that balance. 46 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: That's what Marshawn Lynch is dad, and we saw in 47 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: the playoff game even though Derek Carr wasn't available a 48 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: Mari Cooper, Michael Craft, you had a tough time getting 49 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: away from coverage. You got a big back in there. 50 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: You're ensure of getting one on one on the outside. 51 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: That makes everybody's job easier. Yeah, I kind of bring 52 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: that safety, bring that dropping in the box him. Yeah, 53 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: to respect him. I agree with you. All right, let's 54 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: jump in here on perfect Parents. We're doing NFC East today. 55 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: Why don't you start us off here with the Eagles 56 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: and their fourteenth pick. Who would be a perfect fit 57 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: for this folks fourteenth pick, Mike Williams is a perfect 58 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 1: pick for them. If you're building this offense around Carson Wentz, 59 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: you want to make sure he has playmakers and weapons 60 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: on the outside. Doug Peterson had talked about improving in 61 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: the passing game. Mike Williams gives him an opportunity to 62 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: do so. Big physical, number one receiver playmaker down in 63 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: the red zone, has some of the best hands that 64 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: you will see on these alley catches. He expands the 65 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: strike zone for Carson Wentz and allows them to have 66 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: a feature player in the passing You talk about al 67 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: Sean Jeffrey on one side, Mike Williams on the other. 68 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: You just play over the heads of the defense. I 69 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: love that pick there at fourteen, pick forty three. They 70 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: gotta get a corner. I look, they'd be stoked. I 71 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: believe if you had Quincy Wilson on a fault in 72 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: their lap here from the University of Florida ran in 73 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: the mid to low four fives. Okay, not a burner, 74 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: but he's a big physical Get your hands on a 75 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: receiver type corner and you see right there. He can 76 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: play the ball down the field. It plays the ball 77 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: down the field well, plays perfectly. In the defense zone 78 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: based system. You can let your corner sit off, sometimes 79 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: reround and cover two. Quest Wison would be a nice 80 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: fit there. I like both of those guys for the Eagles. 81 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: Let's move on now to the Washington Redskins, who owned 82 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: the seventeenth pick. And to me, the more I think 83 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: about this pairing of potentially adding in Hassan Reddick from 84 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: from Temple, the more I like it. Because you talk 85 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: about somebody can play off the ball on rundowns. He 86 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: can run sideline to sideline, all kinds of range and 87 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: athleticism they bring the mix can cover. And then also 88 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: if you get some passing situations, you want to let 89 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: him get his hand on the ground opposite of carry 90 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: and let him go hunt quarterbacks. He can do. That 91 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: gives Greg Monusky, to new defensive coordinator, plenty of options 92 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: to attack the offense. You have a guy that can 93 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: play inside on rundowns, go outside, can blitz, he can 94 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: do a lot of different things, and he's athletic enough 95 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: to cover perfect lineback for them. But if nine they 96 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: have to get better at stopping the run. How about 97 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: Dalvin Thomlinson, that one underrated throughout this entire process, rocks 98 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: solid run defended, one of those blue color guys that 99 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: does all the dirty work. He helps this team get 100 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: better because he can occupy and eat up blockers and 101 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: allow those runbacks. Those linebackers are running check. Yeah, you 102 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: can't move him off the ball when you study them. 103 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: He is so stout and so strong at the point 104 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: of attackings. Get a little more quickness, I think than 105 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: people give him credit for. Let's keep things rolling here. 106 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: Let's go over to the Giants, Bucky, they own the 107 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: twenty third pick. Who do you like? Look, I'm gonna 108 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: go and give them something that they haven't had since 109 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: Jeremy Shocky. How about a big play tied in in 110 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: the middlefield David and Joku. I know David is one 111 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: of your favorite guy. He has Pro Bowl potential, long athletic, versatile, 112 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: can play outside, can play inside, can be a bit 113 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: of an inline traditional tied in has big playability and 114 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: in this offense where you're surrounded by talent on the outside, 115 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: he could be a difference maker, a game changer between 116 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: the hash All right, who do you like? Or actually, 117 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: I'll take this one. Let's go fifty five. I think 118 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: offensive line. If they don't address a dress it at 119 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: twenty three, I think that's an option for Antonio Garcia 120 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: from Troy, who just plays with little nastiness to him. 121 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: He's got an edge to him. He finished his place, Bucky. 122 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: There's there's some snaps where you watch him. He goes 123 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: off the screen, he latches on, drives his man, and 124 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm watching from the tight copy of the inside where 125 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: where I can't find him. He's gone. He took the 126 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 1: dude all the way off the screen. Feisty, nasty, physical, 127 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: upgrades their offensive line. You need to continue to build 128 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: the pieces around Eli Manning. Upgrading offensive line is a 129 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: nice way to start. All these teams though they're chasing 130 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, and when you look at the Cowboys 131 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: and what they need, you start on the defensive side 132 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: of the ball. We can look in the secondary, but 133 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: I think you talk about all the time building your 134 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: defense front to back, and Charles Harris to me as 135 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: an edge rusher makes a lot of sense for this 136 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: football team. Polishy, you see a little nifty inside spin 137 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: here against Florida. Great hands, Uh, He's ready to come 138 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: in and make an impact right away. He could be 139 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: a double digit sack guy. You're one. I think he 140 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: can be a double digit sack artist. And Rob Marrionati's defense, 141 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: would they really pride themselves on hustle, hit and determination. 142 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: He can do. I'm going to back end and continue 143 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: to help upgrade this Cowboys defense. How about Usseul Douglas 144 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: from West Virginia, long range e ball hawk. Nice fit 145 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: in this system. They play cover one little man free 146 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: on early downs, but their bread and butters to get 147 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: in that Tampa two and allow their corners to read 148 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Outstanding hand some of the best hands in 149 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 1: the draft no matter what position. I like this. I 150 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: like the two guys that we have going to Dallas Cowboys. 151 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: All right, we check the the NFC East off, We've 152 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: got them taken care of. Let's move on now to 153 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: the NFC South and man some explosive offenses in this division, Bucky, 154 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: But we've got a chance now to either supplement that 155 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: offensive even more weapons, or we go to the defensive 156 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: side of the ball. Let's start with the Panthers fell 157 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 1: off big time last year. Cam Newton is coming off 158 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: of an injury. Right now, they got the eighth overall pick. 159 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: What do they do. We gotta build around the quarterback. 160 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: Cam Newton felled of if you went from being an 161 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: m v P to really struggling, I want to make 162 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: sure that we build up the pieces around him. Leonard 163 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: Fournette is the first piece that I want to get 164 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: because I want to make sure the Panthers get back 165 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: to their identity as a tough, physical, blue collar football team. 166 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: This is a guy it as a hard hat and 167 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 1: lunch peril running back, physical, aggressive, violent finisher of his runs, 168 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: has big play potential. And we're Jonathan Stewart at thirty 169 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: years old. You're looking for the next guy that can 170 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: kind of carry the torch. Then is that guy? Yeah, 171 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: it's weird to say a steal with the eighth pick, 172 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: but I think this would be steel for him if 173 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: he falls to him turn that card and don't waste 174 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: any time. Alright it pick number forty. How about a 175 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: guy that uh that we both like and we've talked to. 176 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: That's a Jones to me, the wide receiver from East Carolina. 177 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: He makes a lot of sense for this football team. 178 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: Give him another weapon in the passing game, big physical 179 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: on the outside, Bucky. We've talked about it a lot 180 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: underneath stuff on tape. You go to Senior Bowl, see 181 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: him get over the top. I think he'd be a 182 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: great weapon for this football I think He's an improvement 183 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: over what they had in TI. Again. I believe he 184 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: can run the routes, try down the field. He can 185 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: be the vertical playmaker. With the big guys on the outside, 186 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funches, you need someone that still 187 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: can stretch the defense and run routes. Z A. Jones 188 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: is a perfect compliment to those big watch This is 189 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: called the tease. We're gonna talk to A. Jones a 190 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: little bit later on in the show. Nice tea, and 191 00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good one. All right, Let's let 192 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: keep things rolling here with the Saints. The eleventh overall pick. 193 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: Tack McKinley to me from U c l A start 194 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: out in the process. We're talking about maybe him in 195 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: the late teams, early twenties. I think he's back up 196 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: here in the mix. Now you talk about right around 197 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: the top ten because he's so explosive off the edge 198 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: and Bucky I say it every time with this kid, 199 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: the effort man just blows you away how hard he plays. 200 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: Effort matters as pass rushers is not always gonna be clean. 201 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to escape some of the 202 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: clutches of these elite offensive Dacos, but if you outworked him, 203 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: you can't get to the quarterback. He has proven that 204 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: he can do that. The next guy that we're gonna 205 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: pay him with. How about a Dorry Jackson from usc 206 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: going with the thirty second pick. Dorri Jackson is a 207 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: world class athlete and a big time playmaker. He can 208 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: contribute in a couple of different ways. Really could be 209 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: a three phase player defense, special teams, and offense. As 210 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: an occasional gadget player, he can help him not quite 211 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: polished as a corner, but he's going to give you contributions. 212 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: It means that he could be a Pro Bowl punt 213 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: returner from day one. I like that pick. That's great 214 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: value there a pick number thirty two. Let's move on 215 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: now to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the night teenth 216 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: overall pick, Doug Martin. We don't know what's gonna go 217 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,479 Speaker 1: on there, Bucky. You think and running back? Thinking absolutely 218 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: about a big time running back front Florida stay Dalvin Cook, 219 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: reuniting him with Jamis Winston. Dalvin Cook terrific playmaker. Three 220 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 1: one euros seasons at Florida State, forty six touchdowns, explosive 221 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: running between the tackles also had the burst, and we 222 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: go to take into distance, catches, the ball out of 223 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: the backfield, everything that you're looking for as an RB 224 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: one in the National Football League. Yeah, I like that 225 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: one as well. Reuniting there with this quarterback. All right, 226 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: pick number fifty, let's get a corner in here. Got 227 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: some age in that second here, Let's get Tease Tabor. 228 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: You can team him up with last year's first round pick, 229 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: Vernon Hargrave's former teammates in college now their teammates once 230 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: again in the NFL. Tabor famously ran slow at his 231 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: pro day, Bucky uh An awful time in the fourth seventh. 232 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: I didn't think the speed was a major issue when 233 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: you study to my tape. That though, will drop him 234 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: down the second round at pick number fifty. I think 235 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: it makes some sense. He puts him right in range 236 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: the paramote with his team and his former teammate, Vernon 237 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: hard Grace, who can hold him a little accountable. They 238 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: can challenge each other. Both of these guys to have 239 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: alpha personalities. And then the scheme fit Mike Smith zone 240 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: defense is a nice fit for Tease table a little 241 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: cover to some cover three allow him to playoffs sometimes 242 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: use his hands. I like that fit. All right, Let's 243 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: go to the team that just came up just a 244 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: little short for a Super Bowl last year, the Falcons 245 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: a pick number thirty one. Let's get him an edge 246 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: rusher or somebody that can compliment what they already have 247 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: there to close out game, something they couldn't do in 248 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Let's get t J. Watt. Throw him 249 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: on the opposite side of Vic Beasley. Let these guys 250 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 1: go get after quarterbacks. The thing that in the Nflcons 251 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: do better than anybody. They really do a great job 252 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: of having these situational packages where they have pass rushes 253 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: in different body types. On their defense. T J. Wat 254 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: can rush off the edge, he can play lineback, he 255 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: can do a bunch of different things. That versatility is 256 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: a huge asset for the Falcons. But I also want 257 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: to upgrade their offense and their offensive line. Alright. Taylor 258 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: Moen Western Michigan comes in, physical player, very solid. I 259 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: like the way he controls it at the point of 260 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: attack that we can line up play the outside. I 261 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: think you can kick down inside and a guard. This 262 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons team has gotten better because they've added pieces 263 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: to the offensive line This is another piece that helps 264 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: pushing them over the top and allows them to retain 265 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: their spot. Isn't isn't there a song about him? Slow 266 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: moten Baby? Maybe? No? Alright, Buck, you know, you know 267 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: I'm a sympathetic guy, and uh, I feel for people 268 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: out there. I like to think of myself as somebody 269 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 1: that can feel the pain of others. And I'm I'm 270 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: sympathetic to those people that keep buying these store pack 271 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: five pack underwear.

I didn't have any offers 311 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: except for one that came pretty late, and that was 312 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 1: to Idaho State, which is a D one double A school, 313 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: and so I played it played my freshman year there. 314 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: UM decided that that, you know, it was probably my 315 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: best interest if I if I decided to h transfer 316 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: up and I thought I could, I was you know, 317 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to play against the best competition possible. And 318 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: and you know, coming from growing up in in southern 319 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: California watching the Pack twelve every weekend. Uh, for me, 320 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: the the top the top level was the Pack twelve, 321 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 1: and and that's that had always been my dream. So 322 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: I decided, you know, there's no better time than then 323 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: to to try that out. So so it actually it 324 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: worked out. It worked out really well for me. But 325 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: um yeah, so so I contacted Cal, they got back 326 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: to me, and it's just sort of history from there. 327 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 1: And I'm extremely lucky to have that opportunity. You know, 328 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: you had an opportunity to play with a lot of 329 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: terrific players, particularly in that wide receiver room, a bunch 330 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: of guys that have gone on to the National Football League. 331 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: What have you been able to learn from their growth 332 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: as National Football League players to prepare you for this 333 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: moment to go into the NFL? Oh yeah, you know 334 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: they I was extremely lucky. There were six wide receivers 335 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: just from last year that are now playing in the 336 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: NFL and and being able to be behind them and 337 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: watch how they uh conduct themselves every single day, you know, 338 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: in the facility, on the field, all that stuff. So 339 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: I think, I think being able to watch them and 340 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: try to mimic what they do really helped me grow 341 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: as a person and as a player. And I think, um, yeah, 342 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, them coming back and telling me what to 343 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: expect has has really been helpful on this journey towards 344 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: the draft and after that. So uh, there have been 345 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: a big help so far. How was your Combine experience. 346 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: M hmm, it was combined. I think combine is pretty 347 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: much similar for everybody. I think it's more of a 348 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: mental grind than a physical grind. Um. You know, the 349 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: only thing that's on TV is the is the workout 350 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: at the end on the last day. But you know 351 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: what I heard before I got there, the combine is 352 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: for medical stuff and interviews, and so that is definitely 353 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: the truth because you know, you spend three of the 354 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: three of the four days you're they're doing interviews and 355 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: medical stuff. So um, it was definitely a great experience 356 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: just being with all the top athletes in this class. 357 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: So um, it's a definitely an experience that I'm gonna 358 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: remember for the rest of my life. You know, when 359 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: you look at yourself, you make a ton of splash players. 360 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: You caught a bunch of balls. Um. If you could 361 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: describe your game and what it looks like at the 362 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: next level, what would you say to strengths and weaknesses 363 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: of your game? On? Well, I think, um, starting with 364 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: the weaknesses, I think, uh, definitely being in a spread 365 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: offense and being an air raid offense. Um. I think 366 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: I think the one knock on me is I haven't 367 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: had to learn, um, you know, like like play calls 368 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: and all that stuff because most of our stuff is 369 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: concept and and stuff like that, and and route running. 370 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: I wasn't really asked to run the full route tree 371 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: here at cal and um that's something or those are 372 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: both things that I've been really working on since the 373 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: end of the season until now. And I think that's 374 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: that's one of my strong points now. But um strength, 375 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: I think I think that I have really good hands. Um, 376 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: That's that's something I really proud myself on. And is 377 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: winning balls and just being there for the quarterback when 378 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: when he thinks I'm gonna be there and uh, helping 379 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: him have trust in me. And and so I think 380 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: I think that's that's huge for a receiver, being able 381 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: to be trustworthy for the quarterback because if if that's 382 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: not there, then you know you're never gonna get any balls. 383 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: And so I think that's that's the relationship I tried 384 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: to build with Davis in this offseason and through the season. 385 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: One thing we do a scouts, you always looking for 386 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: comparisons for players, and when I look at the way 387 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: you get vertical and make plays down the field, remind 388 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: me a little bit of Jeremy Mackman when he was 389 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: coming out of Missouri and watching him and the plays 390 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: that he made. Obviously went on to be a first 391 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: round picks, had a really nice career with the Eagles 392 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: and with the Chiefs. I love what he brings to 393 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: the table. Is there somebody when you watch games on 394 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: Sunday you see a player maybe reminds you of yourself? Well, yeah, 395 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: I think you know, as a football player and probably 396 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: everybody else in this draft tries to mimic as many 397 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: things as they can from every receiver, take the best 398 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: and take the best of every receiver and try to 399 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: try to mimic that and try to try to do 400 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: that on the field. And that's I think that's what 401 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: I try to do. So watching Jordy Nelson or Larry 402 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald Gerald watching them um set up their opponent and 403 00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: and you know, winning winning the play before the snap 404 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: is even m before the snap. I think that's that's 405 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: huge in the next level, just the mental game really, 406 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: I mean, because everybody is a great athlete, and I 407 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: think that's the way to uh separate yourself. And I 408 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: think I think watching them, you can really you can 409 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: really see that, you know, You're fortunate at l you've 410 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: had an opportunity play with a couple of great quarterbacks. 411 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 1: You had Jerry Golf obviously earlier, but this year you 412 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: had a chance to play with Davis Webb. Tell us 413 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: a little bit about Davis Webb from his play to 414 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: his leadership. How is he able to kind of help 415 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: you guys this year? He's a he's a great leader. 416 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: I think I think that's one thing that that everybody 417 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: knew right when he walked in the locker room that 418 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: he was going to be the leader of the team. 419 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,719 Speaker 1: And and you know, whenever anything bad was going on, 420 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: he everybody would look to him and and you know 421 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: he would have some something that calm everybody down in 422 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: the huddle something like that. So his leadership skills are 423 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: are are great and he's super intense and I think 424 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: that that really helps the team get going and all 425 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: that stuff too. But um, but I think I think 426 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: his his best attribute is off the field. Um, the 427 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: time that he puts in the hours of film and 428 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: and uh understanding defenses and and going over all that stuff. 429 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: I think that's why he's able to be successful on 430 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: the field. Yeah, that that's everything I've heard about him 431 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: as well. And I want to talk now our big 432 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: three h questions. We can kind of go through these 433 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: rapid fire here chat, and this is something we've done 434 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: with every player that's come through here. So we'll start 435 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: off here with your highlight. What's your greatest highlight in 436 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: your college career? You know, I think I think I 437 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 1: think probably you know, scoring the go ahead touchdown against Texas. 438 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: I think that was just a great feeling. That was 439 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,479 Speaker 1: our first home game, um against the number eleven Texas 440 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: team that came in here, and and I thought, you know, 441 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: just being able to to score a touchdown late in 442 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: the game to give our team the best chance to win. 443 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: I think that was that was a great feeling for us. 444 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: And and run to the sidelines, you all, your all 445 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: your friends. It is just awesome. Okay. So during the 446 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,479 Speaker 1: same time, what would you say has been your greatest 447 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: hardship that you've had to overcome? Definitely transferring that was 448 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: that was a really tough experience. But I think, um, 449 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: I'm the player I am today because of it. It 450 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: made me tougher mentally, and and um, it made me 451 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: get better at my craft. All right. Last one is 452 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: your hero who's your hero. Um, you know, I think 453 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: that's a that's a tough question because I can't really 454 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: pick one. I'd say my parents for sure. Um, just 455 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: because of how much they've sacrificed for me to be 456 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: where I am now. Um, that was just just knowing 457 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: growing up and understanding the sacrifices that they had to make. 458 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: Just it's just it's it's really cool. So um, definitely them. 459 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 1: Last thing I hit you on before we let you 460 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: go over your shoulder, over your right shoulder. There's a 461 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: guy wearing number eight holding the ball. Can you tell 462 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: us who that is? Saron Rodgers. He's pretty Rogers. You'd 463 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: be okay if you got drafted and got to play him. Yeah, 464 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: he's a great quarterback. Yeah, definitely, that's not a bad idea. 465 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: All right, Chead, thank you so much for joining us, man. 466 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: I wish you the best of luck. Look forward to 467 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: fallwing you on your journey. Thank you, I appreciate it. 468 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me on. Chad Hanson Bucky interesting story 469 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 1: because if if there's and there's a chance Davis Webb 470 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 1: sneaks into the back end of the first round. I 471 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: know you don't see much action last year, but there 472 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: you were four. But you're talking about a guy that's 473 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: been around two first round quarterbacks in two year. It's 474 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 1: prett unique, pretty unique, pretty remarkable. He has come on 475 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: like game Buss his death. Final season at KL was outstanding. Uh. 476 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: Surprised at his times. I thought he ran fast because 477 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: on tape he played much faster vertical threat. I think 478 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: it's interesting that he talked about Jody Nelson and Larry 479 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: Fitzgerald talks about how he sees himself. Maybe he's a 480 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: little bit of a possession receiver with some big play Potentially. Yeah, 481 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: I think when you talk about where he's gonna go, 482 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: I would say probably mid the late second round. Uh, 483 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,719 Speaker 1: potentially gets into that third round area. I think that's 484 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 1: where you'll see him go off the board. But a 485 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: chance to be a really good pro another wide receiver 486 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: I think is gonna go early in the second round 487 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: at worst, Bucky a really really good football players. A 488 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: Jones from East Carolina. You talk about production, this kid 489 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: has it, and I'll tell you what not just production, 490 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of personality, as you'll find out here.

That's East Carolina's z A Jones, who I'm 494 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: sure in the time I'm introducing him, I think he 495 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: caught four more balls based off what he did this year. Za. 496 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: How's it going, man? You're wrapping ecu there with the shirt. Yeah, so, 497 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: and it's going good. How are y'all doing? We're doing great, man. 498 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you. You know, watch you on tape 499 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: during the fall, and I saw a million catches. You 500 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: had a hundred fifty plus catches. But I just remember 501 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: going through my notes and say, man, I wish they 502 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: would let this dude get down field, and then I 503 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 1: could see you go to the Senior Bowl and when 504 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: you kind of took over from that point. Was that 505 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: was that exciting for you to get down there and 506 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: get to stretch your legs a little bit and get vertial? 507 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: Was it was? And you know, I wasn't playing a 508 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 1: hundred snaps a game, so it was just fun that 509 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: you go out there and compete, uh, do multiple things, 510 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: stretched the field a little bit and play with some 511 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: some NFL guys, you know, and and talking about this 512 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,479 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl experience, I don't want to say you were 513 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: off the grid, but you certainly in the standouts coming 514 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: out of the week of the game. What was your 515 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: goal going into the Senior Bowl? What do you want 516 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: to show scouts that you were able to do. I'm 517 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: just a complete football player. Um, that I can compete 518 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: at a high level. Uh, That I am a dominant 519 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: wide receiver, that I'm not not just a product of 520 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: a system. Um, that I can stretch the field, that 521 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: I can beat man man press, Um, go up and 522 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: compete and catch the ball and just just do everything. 523 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 1: And I just wanted to move all doubt. You had 524 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: the momentum going. I mean from coming out of the 525 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl. Then you go to the Combine and you 526 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: ran plenty fast there and had at a great time 527 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: there in Indianapolis. I mean, can you feel it? We 528 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: talked about it from the outside looking in, you know, 529 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: just feel like somebody just kind of moving up and 530 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: up and up. Could you get the sense of that 531 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: just with the excitement of the teams you were talking to, Like, Okay, 532 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm moving up a little bit here. Most definitely, 533 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: I feel like I was just building momentum. It was 534 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: a snowball effect. Um. I was just trying to check 535 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: things off the list, just focusing on the next thing 536 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: that I had. UM in the order it was a 537 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl in the combined in my pro day. So 538 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just trying to go out there and 539 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: just show people that you know, I am why I 540 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: say am, you know, and and thinking about that because 541 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: I think a lot of times it gets lost, uh 542 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: in the process to be able to focus on the 543 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 1: next task. So you go Senior Bowl. You have the comment, 544 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: didn't you have pro days? At the pro days? In 545 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: private workouts would have been some of the things that 546 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: you're still trying to check off the list. You know, 547 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: just just constantly trying to improve my game all around. 548 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: You know, you never stopped working. Um. I told I 549 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: told some people, you know, some guys are gonna get 550 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,439 Speaker 1: complacent with what they've done, but me, I haven't. You know, 551 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: I'm always just trying to get better, always trying to 552 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: find an extra an extra thing in my game that 553 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: I can improve on. UM, day in and day out. 554 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,959 Speaker 1: Have you heard any comparisons of players or is there 555 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: one that comes to your mind? Because when I watch you, 556 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: I think of last year's class and Michael Thomas come 557 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: out of Ohio State, who to me was just he 558 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 1: was the best route runner in last year's draft, and 559 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: in hindsight, I should have rated him even higher than 560 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: I did. I be talking about somebody that just understands 561 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: how to play the game, has that size and physicality, 562 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: but just a real precise route runner. Is there is 563 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: there a player that comes to mind that you study 564 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,679 Speaker 1: you want to model yourself after. You know, there's no 565 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: particular person, Um, Michael Thomas. I think it's a great 566 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: comparison though, with a lot of respect for his for 567 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: his game and what he's done. But I'm a I'm 568 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: a fan of football. I try to try to take 569 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: bits and pieces from everyone's game. I mean, I know 570 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: Mike called a bunch of balls this year, and I'm 571 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: trying to emulate that and do the same thing that 572 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: he's doing. Um. But at the end of the day, 573 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go bes. I'm just gonna do my thing, um, 574 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: inside and outside receiver, whatever it is, whatever coaches asked 575 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: me to do, I'm gonna I'm gonna go be dominant. 576 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: You know, you're a rarity because you were kind of 577 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: involved in the family business. I guess for the Jones 578 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,719 Speaker 1: That's that's what y'all do. Y'all played football. Your dad played, 579 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: your uncle Jeff played, your older brother Caleb is playing. Um, 580 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: what have you learned from watching guys and your family 581 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: move on to the National Football League and have success 582 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: and what lessons have they been able to come to 583 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: convey to you? Yeah, I've learned so much. Um. Even 584 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: though my dad played years ago, is there there's still 585 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 1: things relevant to today. Um. And my dad just told me, 586 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 1: you know, just just attack each and every day, enjoy 587 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: the process. Uh. You know, I'm just watching these highlights 588 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: right here. That's pretty cool. But you know, he's he's 589 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: just just such an influential person in my life. UM. 590 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: And he told me, Isaiah, whatever you do, just be 591 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 1: the best at it, you know, put your head down 592 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: and work. Um. And then having my brother play more currently, 593 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: he always just says, Isaiah, just be yourself, just go bes, 594 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 1: don't try to be anyone else. Just be yourself and 595 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: things are gonna happen for you. And then I got 596 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: my younger brother, Levi, who just committed to the USC 597 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: Trojans and I'm excited to watch him, um play in 598 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: the near future. Now, how did how did you end 599 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: up at wide receiver by the way, because Levi is 600 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: going to play linebacker. That stand your dad, Yeah, he's 601 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: a big dude. Your dad obviously has you know, three 602 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: Super Bowl rings as as a linebacker. But somehow you 603 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: ended up skirting out and uh and going over the 604 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: offensive side of the ball. How did that happened? I 605 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: don't know what happened to me and kayleb both being receivers. Um, 606 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: I guess since my mom has some some good hands, 607 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: she passed it down to us. So we became the 608 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: white out of the family. You know. I mean, that's 609 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: that's that's a pretty good deal. But also like your 610 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: uncle Jeff and uh, I haven't been around Jeff and 611 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: watch him throw the ball and so emery and what 612 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: have you been able to get from him because he 613 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: also deals in dabbles and coaching a little bit as well. Well. 614 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: Uncle Jeffkins still throw the ball. He threw out my 615 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: brother's pro day last year, So I mean he's got 616 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: an arm. Um. You know, he's playing lead for fourteen years. 617 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: And then you know Emory of course played for all 618 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 1: Burn and then went on to play for the Rams 619 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: for a little bit. So I mean I'm learning for 620 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: all of my family. You know, just just how to 621 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: be a pro, how to be a complete player, and 622 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: how to go out and compete at a high level. Well, 623 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: one of the things that I want to get to 624 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: here before we get to your highlight, hardship and hero. 625 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: You probably uh better equipped to answer this question than anybody, 626 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: and that is that East Carolina barbecue versus that Texas barbecue. 627 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: What's better a little vinegar that North Carolina barbecue? Now, Um, 628 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: you know what, I love, I love E see you, 629 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: but I'm a Texas bit heart, and I think that 630 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: Texas barbecue is better for that. But Bucky just dropped 631 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: you about four spots dis wropped you about four spots 632 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: on his list. Uh, it is a little VINEGARYE. I 633 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: gotta be honest. I when I went down to the 634 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: first time I had it was acquired taste for that 635 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 1: Carolina barbeue, just a little bit of an acquired bridges. 636 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: There's place, there's some places here that have some good 637 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: barbecue that I'm not gonna lie, like Parker Parker's Barbecue 638 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: and and and those things. So it is good, but 639 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: I would prefer the Texas barbecue. Yeah, that was my 640 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: look and I went to scouting East Carolina. It was 641 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: the finding the right players with secondary. I was like, 642 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 1: I will try some of this barbecue that I've been 643 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 1: hearing about. The eating. Yeah, Bucky makes fun of me 644 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: because I know I know all the best place to 645 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: eat at every college from scouting. Alright, greatest highlight of 646 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: your career? What what? What is it? It would have 647 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: to be, uh, breaking all time n C double a 648 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: receptions record. I had my entire family there. It was 649 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: my senior night. Um, just an emotional night for me. 650 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 1: Justin Hardy was also there to UM kind of hand 651 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: over the crown and torch to me, and Um, it 652 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: was just a moment that I won't ever forget. What 653 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 1: has been the greatest hardship that you've had overcoming your 654 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: collegiate career. The greatest hardship, Um, I would say, Shoot, 655 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: that's tough. I would say, just you know, we had 656 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: some down years. Um. Sometimes you know, we had a 657 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: lot of coaching staff changes and a lot of quarterback changes, 658 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: and those are tough things to go through, especially being 659 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: a wide receiver. You know, different guys thrown to you, um, 660 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: different coordinators. Um. But somehow I just continue to work 661 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: and stayed consistent, So that would be the hardship of 662 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: all the changes in there. All right, how about your 663 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: hero hero moment? Is that? How about just the hero 664 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: person an individual? It's been kind of your hero? Oh? 665 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: Definitely my father for sure. Um. Just the things that 666 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: he's done, um, growing up where he grew up in 667 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: black Stone, Virginia, and for him to develop as a 668 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: young man and win three Super Bowls um and play 669 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: for ten years in the NFL is just something that's 670 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: truly phenomenal. So would have to be my dad for sure. 671 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: All right, last question before we let you run. We've 672 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: two of your dad's former teammates that work here in 673 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 1: Dion Sanders and Michael Irvin. You only get to pick one. 674 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: Who's your dude? Oh Michael, I'm taking DV. I'm going, 675 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,239 Speaker 1: I'm going Mike for sure. You go playmaker. Okay, I'll 676 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: let playmaker. No. Nice, nicely done, say hey man, best 677 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: of luck. We can't wait to see where you end 678 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 1: up going and following you as you embark on your career. 679 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: Like Bucky said, it's the family business man. Thank you 680 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 1: so much. It means a lot. I appreciate it. Bucky. 681 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: That's about his likable guys we've had. We've had a 682 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: lot of players on this on this show this year, 683 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: and the 're up for the draft. I don't anybody 684 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: has a better personality, to say Jones lost of personality, 685 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: loss of juice, bigger uh. In terms of his game, 686 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: his game supersedes it. But he is an outstanding player, 687 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: a nice person. I really liked the kid. Yeah, you 688 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: just you're not digging his taste in barbecue. But hey, 689 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: that is you can't be perfect. You can pull holes 690 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: and all these guys his barbecue selection. Um. Alright, but 691 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: let's talk about some mid round edge rushers. We we 692 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: we see this every year. We see guys like a 693 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: Marcus Golden h not first round players, but they come 694 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: and have an immediate impact. I've got some guys on 695 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: my list. I know you've got yours as well. Let's 696 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: jump into that. I'm gonna go Dante Davis from you 697 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: Teach Hattanooga as somebody I think you're gonna see in 698 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: that probably fourth round, maybe even in the fifth round range. 699 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: But when you watch him, I see a little bit 700 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: of a Jabaal Sheared Because you talk about some power, 701 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: uh to really really push the pocket plays with good 702 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: effort um. You see him here against Alabama, made a 703 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: couple of plays in that game, which was nice to 704 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: see as well as Tennessee. So when the competition stepped up, 705 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: he stepped his game up. Very impressive to watch on tape. 706 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: I like first up, quickness, is burst, and ability to finish. 707 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: You'd like to see these guys step up when they 708 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: play big time competition. Didn't look out of place when 709 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: he had opportune to do that, Because that you feel 710 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: good they got it. I'm going with how about to 711 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: Marcus Walker from Florida State. For whatever reason, he's kind 712 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: of been We haven't talked about him at all in 713 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: the process, but every time I turn him to tape, 714 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: he just continues to not quarterbacks around. Then you see 715 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: the stats and a half tackles for lost sixteen sex 716 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: second most in FBS, and in those big games when 717 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: they needed some one to close out the game, he 718 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: was able to do so. I know he's a bit 719 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: of a between here. He's not an outstanding athlete, but 720 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: there's something to be sad for guys who just have 721 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: a skill. His skill is being able to get home. 722 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: He's gonna find a way to be successful as a pro. 723 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: I like that one. Alright, my next one here, Bucky, 724 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have a song for this one because 725 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: last episode I talked about I like Jake Button, I 726 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: cannot lie. Uh So now we've got Mr Hendrickson from 727 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: f a U and I'm just gonna go that's why 728 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: we tray, Kay, you need to trade just to make 729 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: it today. Anyways, that's I'm a big Trey Hendrickson. Fanny. 730 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: You talk about somebody that has production a little bit, 731 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: a little bit straight line, a little bit stiff um, 732 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: but man, he knows how to rush the pastor great 733 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: with his hands. Had a phenomenal week at the East 734 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: West Shrine Game. I think that's really up to stock 735 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: third round. Wouldn't shock me. You might even get him 736 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: in the fourth round. I think he's gonna be a 737 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: good pro, a very good at the East West front 738 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: Games show flashes being able to take over the game 739 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: as an edge rusher. Absolutely like that. They got it. 740 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: Also like small school guy. How about terreal Bashing from Ohio? 741 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: Great name look mac Defensive Player of the Year. Has 742 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: a knack for getting to the quarterback, great instincts and intangibles, 743 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: nice hand skills, have some power off the edge. More importantly, 744 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: I just liked the way that he is able to 745 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: get home. I think those skills translate to the National 746 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: Football League. He's gonna be a nice solid sack artists 747 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: of someone who comes out of a mid round selection. Yeah, 748 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: so your team's out there, you need an add rush, 749 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: you need somebody to make an impact. You don't necessarily 750 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: have to do that in the first round. We've given 751 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: you four names we think are gonna be pretty productive 752 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: players outside that round number one. All right. One of 753 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: the fun things we've been doing this spring is we've 754 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: been getting scouting stories from general managers and we've kind 755 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: of put it to animation. We've all been there, done that. 756 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: We've got our road dug stories from the road, and 757 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: we thought we'd get these from the general managers. And 758 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: you got a great one, Bucky from Chris Greer of 759 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,959 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins. Enjoy.
