We've been doing this once 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: a week since mid February. I can't believe it's finally here. 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: I'm Matt Taylor, joined by Casey Valier and joining us 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: today on the Horn to talk draft the cults, wide receivers, tackles, 9 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: and other possible draft choices. Is Ian Cummings, NFL draft 10 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 1: analyst at Pro Football Network dot com. Ian, thanks for 11 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 1: the time, man, How are you. I'm doing good. I'm 12 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 1: doing good. You know, it's the home stretch and you know, 13 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: ideally and most of our grades are finalize at this point, 14 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: so a lot of the top players, you know, like 15 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: we've watched all these guys now it's just kind of 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: you know, finalizing that, you know, making sure that we're 17 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: ready for ready to roll when the draft comes around. 18 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: And obviously there's so much ground to cover, especially this 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: year with the COVID year, a lot of pros back 20 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: state for an extra year, so it's kind of a 21 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 1: bigger class, so diving into some fds guys just kind 22 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: of using as much time as you can and making 23 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: the most of the time that you have. So it's 24 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: a fun time and I'm happy to be on absolutely 25 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: ian With you specifically, I mean, the tape speaks for itself, 26 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: right that I in this guy. It does not lie 27 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: when it comes to draft prospects and potential and how 28 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: they translate to the NFL. But with you specifically, how 29 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: much fluctuation can guys move up and down your draft 30 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: board if you will, based on combine times and pro 31 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: day workouts and things like that that have happened between 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 1: the end of the college football season and the draft 33 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: this weekend. Yes, So it's a good question, and it's 34 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 1: something that I've grappled with in the past and even 35 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: this cycle. Me personally, I try to stay you know, 36 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: you want to be flexible. Obviously, I don't use the 37 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: combine times in my grades. What I do is, you know, 38 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: you have a get a pretty good impression of a 39 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: player's you know, athletic ability on tape. So a lot 40 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: of times the NFL combine Pro Day, it's not necessarily 41 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: for gauging their athleticism, but you know, providing a reference 42 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: to back up, right, So usually you're not going to 43 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 1: get a ton of surprises like Trayvon Walker, we knew 44 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: he was going to be a freak. David Javo, we 45 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: knew he was going to freak. You know, just providing 46 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: some examples. But then there's guys that you know, maybe 47 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,399 Speaker 1: test a little bit better or worse than you expected. 48 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: That's not necessarily going to change your opinion of them 49 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: as a player, because I do think that some players 50 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: show more burst on tape than they test with potentially, 51 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: So it's never something that you want to just go 52 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: with on the service level. What you want to do 53 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: is use it as a reference and then circle back 54 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: to the tape and say, you know, did I overestimate 55 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: this guy's burst or did I overestimate his agility? You know, 56 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: So it's a reference that allows you to kind of 57 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: reevaluate your perspective. It's not something that you run with 58 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, but you know, all information in the 59 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: draft process is valuable information. So it's something that's taking 60 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: a repair. You go back and look and usually usually 61 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: if you watch the tape and you know, usually if 62 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: you're in a good frame of mind. If you're getting 63 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: good stuff from it, you can have a good idea, 64 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,839 Speaker 1: a good impression of how guys can test. So there's 65 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: usually not a ton of surprises, but it's it's a 66 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: very good reference to have. Have you experienced, I mean, 67 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: as you do your own mock draft and compare your 68 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: work to other mock drafts and evaluate the offseason draft 69 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: process if you will, Are you noticing like guys moving 70 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: up other people's boards and you're just like, how why 71 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: you know this? This guy's not the tenth pick in 72 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: the draft. This guy's not going to go in the 73 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: first round. Do you have examples of this happening? And 74 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: is it is it hard to understand? It's, uh, yes, 75 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: So I do have examples. Usually it's it's easy to 76 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: understand because the draft, I mean, I guess it's hard 77 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: and easy, Like it's hard for you if you're lower 78 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: on a guy like you don't see it potentially, but 79 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: I do see a lot of times there's there are 80 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: avenues for players to be, you know, higher on other 81 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: people's boards, like Trevor Penning is one that I'll throw 82 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: out there. Obviously an elite athletic tester on safe. The 83 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: nasty mentality is very much there. He's uber physical and 84 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,839 Speaker 1: I love that part of his game. For me, though, 85 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: you know, we're hearing top fifteen, maybe top twelve for him. 86 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: That's a little too high for me. You know, he's 87 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: not even a first shound, great propect for me. You know, 88 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: I look at the technical area of his game. The 89 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: pad level is high, a lot stops moving feet, you know, 90 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: a lot of times makes reps look better with that 91 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: physicality at the end. But you know, I think there's 92 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: an avenue in the NFL where edge rushers can easily 93 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: get under him, easily get around him, and kind of 94 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: exploit him opening his hands as well. So a lot 95 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: of technical refinement is needed there. But I can understand why, 96 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, NFL teams and evaluators will be high on 97 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: him because he's an athletic freak, because he's super physical, 98 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: very strong, very powerful. Tyer Smiths from Tulsa as another one. 99 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of his upside, but we're seeing 100 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: round one talk now and that's a little too high 101 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 1: for me. So it's it's never, you know, rarely or 102 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: you're going to get completely blindsided by a prospect going 103 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: high but there are you know, there is a lot 104 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: of wiggle room. There's a lot of subjectivity in the process. 105 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: People view prospects differently, and it's just it's a matter of, 106 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: you know, how do you evaluate, how are you comfortable? 107 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: You know, what lens do you see them through? So 108 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: it's not something that surprises me. You know, there are 109 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: prospects that are a little bit higher on the board 110 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: that I wouldn't feel comfortable taking, Like you know, both 111 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker and Aid Hutchinson's kind of in that in 112 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: that number one conversation. Me personally, I wouldn't take either 113 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: one number one overall. Oh yeah, here we go, lay 114 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: the hammer in. Let's let's hear it exactly. Hey, you know, 115 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: this has been a cycle for me where you know, 116 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: a lot of times, especially as a young evaluator, in 117 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: past cycles, sometimes you kind of just roll with the consensus. 118 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: But this time, you know, I think the biggest roadblock 119 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: for growth for a lot of evaluators is not just 120 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: trusting what you see, you know, because if you're right, 121 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: you keep doing what you're doing. If you're wrong, that's fine. 122 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: You learn from it and you implement that in your 123 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: process moving forward. So you know, looking at what I 124 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: see from these guys, I don't think either one's worth 125 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: the number one overall pick. But again I can see 126 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: why people would be higher on them because again with Hutchinson, 127 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: you got that all out motor. You know he's going 128 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: one hundred and ten percent on every gown. And then 129 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: with Walker, p elite athletic upside, where if he does 130 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: reaches potential, then he is worth that. I don't think. 131 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: I think he's got a long way to go, a 132 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: very long way to go right now. But you can 133 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: see why people would feel that who feel differently, you 134 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: can at least see it. Who's your number one? Then 135 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: my number one is that's a that's a that's an 136 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: interesting topic, man. I got a few players up there. 137 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton is up there. He's not quite my number 138 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: one right now. Andrew Booths from Clemston. I know the 139 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: injuries have been a particular concern for him. Obviously, was rarely, 140 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: you know, fully healthy at his college career, had the 141 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: tweet camstring before the NFL combine and the hernia surgery. 142 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: But he's supposed to be ready for the training camp. 143 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: But Andrew Booth tape Clemson Corner for me was very good. 144 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, he's got the upside for sure, 145 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: and I think that's one of the top selling points 146 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. But I look at the 147 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: foot speed in his game, the corrective twitch that he 148 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: moves with. You know a lot of times with corners. 149 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: You know, it's not just the physicality to jam. It's 150 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: not just the players that you make on the ball. 151 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: It's just matching a guy with your footwork, with your 152 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: technique and sticking to them. And to me, Andrew Booth 153 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: is very good at that, one of the best in 154 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: these classes that using that fast feat, that corrective twitch, 155 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 1: the hit fluidity to stick with his man. He's got 156 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: a long frame, he's very physical, he's elite and run 157 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: support coming downhill and you know, engaging blocks and then 158 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: at the catch point as well. I mean, we've seen 159 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: that acrobatic ability. He can rise vertically, he can contort, 160 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: he can track the ball and make those plays. So 161 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: to me, Andrew Booth is definitely up there. And then 162 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: another guy who isn't really viewed in that range for 163 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people, but for me he is is 164 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: Georgia's safety Lewis Scene. I am a big fan of 165 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: his game. I think that he's one of the more 166 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: underrated prospects in this class. He's you know, a lot 167 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: of times people look at the hard hits that he 168 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: levies coming downhill. He's one of those those safeties who's 169 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, he's a very willing enforcer. He's physical coming downhill. 170 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you know, I think you 171 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: look at with safeties a lot of the more impressive 172 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: reps sometimes are when you're not getting thrown at, when 173 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: you're you know, kind of discouraging targets with your positioning downfield. Right, 174 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: and I see Lewis Scene. He's six two one nine 175 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: nine thirty two and a half in charms, so he's 176 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: got a long frame. He's not a small guy. Every 177 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: safety looks small compared to Kyle Hamilton, you know, but 178 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: Lewis Scene acts he has very good size for the 179 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: safe position, and then he moves incredibly well. He ran 180 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: in the four threes in his forty yard dash had 181 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: you know, elite explosive his numbers, which that checks out 182 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: on tape, and that's one of those those things where 183 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: you know, you see it on tape and then the 184 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: testing numbers reflect that. But he is an effortless mover 185 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: on the back end, very explosive, very twitchy. But then 186 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: the hit fluidity too. He flips his hips and he 187 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: can carry that acceleration, you know, effortlessly, you know, very 188 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: steamless transitions and open field. So I would trust him 189 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: to run with a wide receiver in open field. But 190 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: I'd also trust him come downhill and closing ground very quickly. 191 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: He's very instinctive, processes extremely well. The ball skills is 192 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: the thing that I would want him to improve. He's 193 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: still kind of working on, you know, when to get 194 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: his head around how to track the ball in mid air. 195 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: But he has the physicality and he has you know, 196 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: the positioning, the elite athleticism in the short range, and 197 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: the explosive is to close very quickly. The Lewis scene 198 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: for me, he's that enforcer. You can put him in 199 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: the big slot, you can put him a too high, 200 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: you've got the range per single high. To me, he's 201 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, arguably, I think the gap between Hamilton and 202 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: the rest of the guys is not very big at all. 203 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: And that's not a slight to Hamilton. This is just 204 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: a very good safety class and Lewis teen is right 205 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: there for me. Now, do you think that the NFL 206 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: falls into that trap of, you know, the top overall 207 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: pick has to be you know, impact player at either quarterback, 208 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: defensive end, tackle. You just mentioned two safeties in a 209 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,439 Speaker 1: corner and that's rare to see one of those guys 210 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: taking number one overall. Do you think the NFL just 211 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: kind of falls into that trap of, well, you have 212 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: to take this position at that spot. Yeah, I think 213 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: that could be it me personally, I look at you know, 214 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: every position is important to completing the puzzle, right, but 215 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: I do think that there are certain positions that are 216 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: a little more important to me in the modern NFL. 217 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: I think the ones that you look too first are 218 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: the ones that directly impact the past. So I mean 219 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: quarterback obviously, because you're passing the football, right, Like, if 220 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: there's a blue chip quarterback, then you take them if 221 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: you need it. Obviously this class, that's been an interesting discussion. 222 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: But you know, but beyond that, you know, offensive tackle 223 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,839 Speaker 1: protecting the QB, cornerback, covering those wide receivers and forcing 224 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: the QB to hang onto the ball for longer. The 225 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: add rusher pressuring that quarterback around the tackles, right, So 226 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: it's it's all about impacting the past and impacting the 227 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: quarterback and restricting that offense or if you're on offense, 228 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: allowing you to work with more freedom. So I think 229 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: that you know, impacted them pass and that kind of 230 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: falls to the edge rushers, the tackles. We see those 231 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: premier positions taken a lot in the early stage of 232 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: the first round. And you know, you can look the 233 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: contract info too, which positions are commanding the most money 234 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: because maybe that's the one where you want to lock 235 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: up that flue chip talent early on that rookie deal 236 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: and then get him in your you know, in your 237 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: organization so you can maybe keep him around if he 238 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: turns out to be that guy. You know, there's a 239 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: lot of factors to take into account. But I also 240 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: think with the NFL, you've got old school evaluators. If 241 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: there's a guy like in Aidan Huddington who has that 242 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: lunch pail mentality all right, where he's coming at you 243 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: with one hundred and ten percent, he's got grit, he's 244 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: got that motor right, all the you know, all the 245 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: stereotypical things, but you know he does have that. Like 246 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: there's a guy if you're if you want a guy 247 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: who's got that high for who you're not going to 248 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: have to worry about giving effort, then that if he 249 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: has the athletic traits which we saw how he tested. 250 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: I am of the belief that his functional athleticism on 251 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: tape doesn't quite match the athleticism he tested with. But 252 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: as long as he tested with those numbers, we know 253 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: the teams to have thresholds for that, and if players 254 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: to pass that threshold, they're gonna be comfortable taking them. 255 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: So I think you look at that, you know there's 256 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: a positional value, but also you know if they have 257 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: those qualities where that would win over you know, old 258 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: school football evaluators that can play a factor in it too. 259 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: All right, Ian, let's talk about the Cults. They are 260 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: on the look for potentially wide receivers, tight ends, and 261 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: tackles this week in the draft, among other positions. They 262 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: sit at forty two, no first round pick. Hypothetically, what's 263 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: a better play in your opinion if both players have 264 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: similar evaluations according to the Colts, which card do you 265 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: pull on draft night? Do you pull a tackle or 266 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: a wide receiver? Based on where the Colts are? You know, 267 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: That's an interesting question because I think for the Colts 268 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: here's the thing. For me, The first thing that I 269 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: factor in for this tackle versus receiver is the depth 270 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: of the class at each position. I think at offensive 271 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: tackle you're looking at not nearly as much depth as 272 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: you are a wide receiver. So if I'm the Colts, 273 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: the first thing I'm looking at is is there a 274 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: guy at forty two that is still there that's, you know, 275 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: the value proposition is worth picking because if not, if 276 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: you decide to wait until seventy three, then all the 277 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: tackles that might be able to start on day one 278 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: might be gone. At that point. I think it's it's 279 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: a lot more barren of a position. And that's not 280 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: to say that there's you know, developmental talent, right, but 281 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: the wide receiver group in this class, I think it's 282 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: so much deeper. I think you can get a Day 283 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: one contributor at that seventy third pick if you really 284 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: wanted to. So the first thing I'm looking at for 285 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: the Colts at forty two is tackle, you know, because 286 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: I want to make sure is there a guy that 287 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: can start right away? And even there, like I don't 288 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: think I wouldn't be one hundred percent comfortable with the 289 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: guys that you're getting there starting right away. I think, 290 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: to me personally, looking at this class, You've got Evan 291 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: neal right, he's my OT one. You've got Kim Kwanu, 292 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: You've got Charles Cross, all very good prospects, and I 293 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: think it dips after that. Trevor Penning, you know, has 294 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: that starting up, but again there are some technical refinement 295 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: to undergo. Tyler Smith kind of the same deal, right, 296 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: and then you've got guys like Bernard Raymond, which you know, 297 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of the athletic upside too, but 298 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: he's gonna be twenty five years old. He's still gotta 299 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 1: work on his hand a little bit, right, So there's 300 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: not really a guy that I'm head over heels for 301 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: in that range. But again, you know, if you wait 302 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: even further, you might lose your chance to get them too. 303 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: So I think the first thing I'm looking for at 304 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: a forty two viticults. If Tywer Smith or Bernard Raymond 305 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: is there, you know I've maybe considered taking one of them, 306 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: and not because I don't love them, but I do know, 307 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: you know, if I wait until seventy three then maybe 308 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: you're stuck with guys like Nicholas Petite freyre Ohio State, 309 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 1: who you know, he has upside too, but again very 310 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: much a work in progress with his technique. It just 311 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: kind of the depth keeps dwindling as you go further down. 312 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: So for me right now, I'm looking at you know, 313 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: hoping that maybe tywer Smith drops right because as much 314 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: as he does have allot of things to work on. 315 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: A he's a stellar athlete, he's incredibly physical, he's very strong, 316 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: very powerful. There's tools to work with him, more so 317 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: than if you wait till seventy three, and I think 318 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: ultimately at seventy three you can still get a very 319 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: good wide receiver. This wide receiver class, like I've got 320 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: a top twenty and I've got like over you know, 321 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: probably almost two dozen guys that I would take on 322 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: day two. You know, it's a very deep, very strong 323 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver class. So I think you take advantage of 324 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 1: that and look at the position that doesn't have as 325 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: much depth at forty three forty two, and hope you 326 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: can get a guy you said, two dozen receivers that 327 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: are worth either a second or a third round uh 328 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: selection on Yeah, maybe a little less than two dozen. 329 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: But I'm a I'm a very big fan of this 330 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver class. There's a lot of guys, a lot 331 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: of different molds too, you know, I think that see 332 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: the talent that's there. There's size guys if you want side, 333 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: there's speed, you know, there's guys who can route, run, 334 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: can separate, right. So a lot of different molds, a 335 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: lot of different you know, nuances too. But I'm a 336 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: big fan of what the class has to offer overall. 337 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: And I know the Colts especially, you know, they kind 338 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: of favor those size guys who over two hundred pounds, 339 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, kind of have that size to hold up 340 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: in the middle of the field. From versatility, if you're 341 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: looking for it, there's a lot there. There's a lot 342 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: of that this class has to offer, you know. I 343 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: think if it's Colts, it's a really good opportunity to 344 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: add a weapon and get that value. There's a couple 345 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: of guys from Alabama who are pretty top tier wide receivers, 346 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: both coming off ACLS and John Mitchie and Jamison Williams. 347 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: How much do you see that impacting their draft status? 348 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: And with that being said, the Colts being at forty 349 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: two Is there a chance of one of those guys 350 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: fall that, you know, probably if they were healthy, they're 351 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: they're a you know, a top twenty pick. Is there 352 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: a possibility that happens. Yeah, I think with Jamison, probably 353 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: not going to happen. I think we've been what we've 354 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: been hearing from Jamison is that he's going to be 355 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: a Round one pick anyway. And you know, you look 356 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: at the game breaking speed that he has, it's no surprise. 357 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy would have run a four to 358 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: three if he was gonna if he you know, was 359 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: healthy enough to run that that forty of the combine. 360 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: But even you know, the forty yard dash. We talked 361 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: about testing numbers, right, you know, even that doesn't always 362 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: encapsulate the impact a player can have with his speed. 363 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: Like we look at Jamison Williams. His it's not just 364 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: his speed, it's you know, the explosiveness that he has. 365 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: It's how much you know, ground he covers, which with 366 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: each stride. He's a long strider. He's almost six two. 367 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: So he's not just a speedy guy. You know, he's 368 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: a guy who at the moment he opens his gate 369 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: like he is gone, you know, like that's just how 370 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: it is with him, he destroys tackling angles in space. 371 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: You know, he can stack defenders very easily, that elite 372 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: deep throat At the same time too, you know, you 373 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: look at what are the components that you look for 374 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: for route running development, right hip sync, sinking those hips 375 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: on your transitions, the ability to stop very quickly, decelerate 376 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: very quickly using throttle control on you know, stop and 377 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: goes and other routes. He's shown he can do all 378 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: that as well. So I think with James and Williams, 379 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: you're not just looking at a pure speed guy. You're 380 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: looking at a player with his length as well his 381 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: body control instincts can potentially be a complete wide receiver 382 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: on top of that that speed. So, you know, me 383 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: personally as as much as the ACL factors in, he's 384 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: such a dynamic player, you know. Beyond that that, I 385 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: do think he's gonna gonna go round one either way, 386 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: and if he flips around two like theoretically again, I 387 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: think the chance is very low. But were he too, 388 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: I think you'd have a frenzy of teams trying to 389 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: trade up the thirty three to get him because he's 390 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: that talented. So I don't see him being an option 391 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: for the Colts. Mechi, I think could very well be there. 392 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: I think even if he hadn't been injured. To me, 393 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: he's more of that you know, mid second, late second 394 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: you pick. I do think he's a very solid player, 395 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: I think particularly in the slot and you can move 396 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: him around a little bit. I think he's pretty versatile 397 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: with his releases. But he's just kind of an all 398 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 1: around solid receiver. He's very twitchy with his routes. You know, 399 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: he's very good at generating displacement, you know, with that 400 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 1: lateral moves. And then at the same time he's got 401 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: pretty good hands. I'd like him to shore up his 402 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: hand technique a little bit. But again, he's a player 403 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: who can track the ball can you know, cantork. And 404 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: he's got very good zone awareness too, can sneak into 405 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: those open zones get opened. He's got a good feel 406 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 1: in space. So I think Metchi, you know, not quite 407 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: the upside that Williams has, but especially for the Colts, 408 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: if we're looking for a guy compliment Michael Pittman Jr. 409 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: You know, I think that's a guy who allows you 410 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: to do that. Give some contrasting skill sets on the field, 411 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: and we talked a lot about wide receivers. I want 412 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: to double back to tackles. I'm gonna give you a 413 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: handful of tackles that I've seen in mock drafts, including 414 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: your own tackles that are projected to go late first 415 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: round to middle second round. Really speaking right, here are 416 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: the guys that I've jotted down. Tyler Smith out of Tulsa, 417 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: Bernard Raymond at a Central Michigan, Daniel Falolelee at a Minnesota, 418 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: Nick Pettit Frere Freery out of Ohio State. I don't 419 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: know if I'm getting that name right. Maybe you can 420 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: correct me on that. Rashid Walker at a Penn State 421 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: in Abraham Lucas at a Washington State. Of those guys, 422 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 1: which do you like the best and which do you 423 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: think is most likely to be there around forty two? 424 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: To give the cults something to think about. Yeah, so 425 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: the one that I like the best of that group 426 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: is Kyler Smith, and it's a caveat here. He's gonna 427 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,719 Speaker 1: need some time to refine his game, for sure. I 428 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: think all these guys, you know, again, as I mentioned Jarlier, 429 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm not super comfortable with any of 430 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: them starting right away. The depth of the class kind 431 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: of falls off after the first three. But with Tyler Smith, 432 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: you're really shooting for the stars with that because looking 433 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: at him on tape at Tulsa, he is very physical. 434 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 1: He is you know, he's got that nasty mentality to him. 435 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: He's a natural left tackle, so you can fit him 436 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: in right there. It's not you know, he's not a 437 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: natural right tackle, so you might have to transition him around. 438 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: You can move him right to left tackle at day 439 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: one opposite Bradon Smith and be set, you know, but 440 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: I do think there's some room from refinement with the 441 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: hand usage, with the you know, the synergy between his 442 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: upper and lower body. There's times where he strikes before 443 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: his base is set and that can cause him to 444 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: lurch lose his balance. But at the same time, he's 445 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: got great knee bend for his size. He's not bending 446 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: at the waist. He's very flexible, very fluid. As a mover. 447 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: You can flip his hips and redirect his momentum explosive 448 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: off the snap. You know, very good lateral mover as well, 449 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: can match guys around the edge, and then you know, 450 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: if you can refine and channel his hand usage. The 451 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: guy is physical. I mean he is violent with his hands, 452 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,959 Speaker 1: with his strikes. So I love the upside there. And 453 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: I think at that point, because you're not getting a 454 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 1: super high floor with anyone, I think you have to 455 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: shoot for the stars and go with Tower Smith if 456 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: he's there. So that would be my preference. I think 457 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: that you know who's the most likely to be there. 458 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: Probably you know, you're probably looking at guys like Nicholas 459 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: Petit Frere. Maybe Bernard Raymon, although there's him talk to. 460 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: Maybe he could be a fringe first round pick. That's 461 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 1: way too rich for me. But you know, sometimes teams 462 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: get win over by guys. That's just how it is. 463 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: Sometimes they fall in love and they take a guy 464 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: earlier than you expect, right, So I'd say maybe Abraham 465 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: Lucas Daniel Fallee. I don't love the fit there. He's 466 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: more of a pure power guy. Don't love the lateral 467 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: mobility from him. He's also very tall, right, so he 468 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: plays with a high pad level a lot. So if 469 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: you're an NFL edge rusher, it's not that hard to 470 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: get under him, get under his pads and kind of 471 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: control the rep from there. Pallee I think, you know, 472 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: he's also a right tackle, right, so I think putting 473 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: him a right tackle, you know they've already got Braden Smith, 474 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: there's not a perfect fit. I would probably go with, 475 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Nicholas to pitte Frere, although again that's 476 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,959 Speaker 1: way too rich for me. Again, so I think if 477 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: Kylie Smith isn't there, then you're either looking at a 478 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: major reach at forty two, so you might want to 479 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: wait until seventy three, But then guys might be off 480 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 1: the board there, so maybe a trade back is possible, right. 481 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: I think it's just that's not the best range in 482 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: this class four an offensive tackle, because a lot of 483 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: these guys are probably more third round values that you 484 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: might have to take in round two. Thomas Smith is there, 485 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 1: get him because he's a guy who has the upside 486 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: to potentially go round one. So if he's there, that's 487 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: a good value deal. But again, even then not a 488 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: super higher floor. You're still working with some projection unfortunately. 489 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think the group that you mentioned is 490 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: probably the group that you're working with. Abraham Lucas is 491 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: another natural right tackle. Again, he played right tackle at 492 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: Washington State, so you'd have to move him over if 493 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: you're going to get him in there, and we've seen 494 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: in the past, like it's something that can be done right, 495 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: but you know it's not a transition. If you're the colt, 496 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: you know you've got Matt Ryan, are kind of looking 497 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: to compete right now. I'd rather get a guy who 498 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: at least is you know, has a natural feel at 499 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,239 Speaker 1: left tackle, so I don't need to develop that on 500 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: top of beat the hand usage, to the synergy other 501 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: elements like that. Now final thing on tackle you talk about, 502 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, at forty two, you probably want a guy 503 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: you can plug in right now. But let's say let's 504 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: move into you know, day three, you've highlighted Devin Cochrane 505 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: out of Georgia Tech with a lot of upside. What 506 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: is a guy like him? Where do you see his 507 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 1: availability to get on the field if if they do that, 508 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: you know, let's say day three, a guy like that 509 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: who's got you know, upside, the size at tackle, but 510 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: just need development. Where do you see him, Blake, is 511 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: it a two year, three year project? Yeah, I'd say probably, 512 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, multiple years. I can't. You know, it's it's 513 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: tough to figure out with a lot of guys because 514 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: on the outside. There's only so much information we have, 515 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: you know, obviously with development, a very key thing is 516 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: information retainment, you know from coaching, and that's something that 517 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: you know. As much as you want to gallage that 518 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: as an evaluator, it's not something we can get an 519 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: accurate pulse on all the time. If I had to guess, 520 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: I'd say, you know, probably one or two years before 521 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 1: he's getting you know, that starting experience. I think he's 522 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: a little over reliant on those two hand punches right now. 523 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: I'd want to see more independent hands from him. But 524 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: again you look at the upside and the six seven 525 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: three or six thirty five and three eight arms, so 526 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: very very long frame which you can use to get 527 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: a lever round guys very quickly. He's got five ten forty, 528 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 1: which the forty or dash again not super indicative for 529 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 1: offensive tackles, but it at least shows your athleticism how 530 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: you can move in space right and then on top 531 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: of that as well, thirty inch vertical nine four broad 532 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: so really good short range burst as well. So I 533 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: think you're looking at you know, the biggest things that 534 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 1: you got to work with with Cochrane is improving the 535 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: footwork I think the pad level can be high to 536 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: which when it got six to seven. That's that's a 537 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: common problem. A lot of offensive tackles have that. You've 538 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: got to work on that because I don't think you know, 539 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: I think you have good knee bend. Sometimes bend it's 540 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: a waist a little bit right, So I want to 541 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: clean that up and make sure he's not lurching. But 542 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, again, it's the tools to work with. If 543 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: you can get that in, I think it's gonna be 544 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: a multi year project either way. I'd probably want to 545 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: try and get a veteran tackle that's on the market 546 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: to kind of provide that buffer. But you know, again, 547 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: there's talents to mold. And I'll throw out a few 548 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: other names as well in this class. I think you 549 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: know Zach Thomas a guy who could be one. Again. 550 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: He's a little bit smaller. He doesn't have a great 551 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: power element to his game, but he's athletic. It's very flexible. 552 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: He's pretty versatile too. He's got independent hands. He's a 553 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: guy that might be able to start a little bit earlier. 554 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: Although you're not working with as much upside, he's still 555 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: got a good ceiling I think. But not quite that 556 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: longer powerful guy, more of that, just guy who can 557 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: kind of hold down the fort. Matt will Let's go 558 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 1: from South or North Dakota is another guy who's got 559 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: a very long frame. He's in that left tackle again, 560 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: probably going to have to adjust a little bit because 561 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: he is over a line on those two and extensions. 562 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: But at the Senior Bowl that was a big milestone 563 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: for him coming in and proving that he belonged against 564 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: FBS competition. He definitely did that. So athleticism linked to 565 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: what Let's go is another guy who provides that there's 566 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: a lot of guys on day three if you're looking 567 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: for that, as you know, developmental tackle talent for the Colts. 568 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: You'd like to have someone to start right away, but 569 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,959 Speaker 1: at forty two, at seventy three, you're not in the 570 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,199 Speaker 1: best spot to get that, so you might have to 571 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 1: defer to a day three guy. It just depends on 572 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: how the board falls. We'll see, but there are options 573 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: there for sure. All right, last one from me, Ian 574 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: And you've been so gracious with your time, so we 575 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: really appreciate. I want to go inside the division talk 576 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: about the Houston Texans because for the first time since 577 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, they actually have a first round pick. In fact, 578 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: they have two. They sit at number three and number 579 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 1: thirteen after they traded de Shaun Watson to the Cleveland 580 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: Browns last month. They're obviously in the process of rebuilding 581 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: their roster. The Texans actually have eleve and picks in 582 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: the draft, including five in the top eighty. What do 583 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 1: you see for the Houston Texans in terms of need? 584 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: What do you think they do and how much better 585 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: can they become here late in the month of April 586 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: in early May. Yeah, so the Texans are an interesting 587 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: team that I still They've made a few additions, but 588 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: again I still think they're in that phase where you 589 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: can pretty much go BPA, right, you know, I don't 590 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: think there's anything restricting them from taking you know, someone 591 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: who's not BPA. Right. I think there's a lot of 592 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 1: needs still on the roster, and we've seen, you know, 593 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: over the long term getting that BPA because needs are 594 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: shifting every year, guys are always getting filtered in and out. 595 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 1: It's always I think a better strategy to just take 596 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: the top overall talent, right. So where the Texans, I 597 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: could see a number of different scenarios at number three overall, 598 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: I think you'd get Evan Neil, is that right tackle 599 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: if you really want to move Titus Howard inside, But 600 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: I think you could go edge too. I mean, it 601 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: depends on how they value the top guys. And if 602 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: one of Hutchinson or Trayvon Walker falls, that would probably 603 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: be the pick. I'd have to say, because those are 604 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: kinds of the guys that we've been seeing at one 605 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 1: and two. Right, So if the Texans, if one drops 606 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: the three maybe if you're if you're the Texans, you're 607 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: thinking that's great value. Again, as I mentioned earlier, I 608 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't take either guys number one overall, but it seems 609 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: to be a done deal that they're going to go 610 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: in the top five. Cavon Cuvedo potentially right, and if 611 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: he falls to you know, thirteen as well, you know 612 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: we've been hearing that he might fall some teams maybe, 613 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: you know, unsure of his character, mean personally, that's another 614 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: thing I don't like to, you know, say anything definitive 615 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: about that, because I haven't met the guy in person. 616 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: I can't speak to that. What I can't speak to 617 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: is the upside on the film, the explosiveness, the length 618 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: of power capacity. So if he falls to thirteen or 619 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: you know, if the Texans feel comfortable with his character, 620 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: he could be to picket either those spots. Right. So 621 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: I think with the Texans, you're probably looking at one 622 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: of those premier positions with one of those picks as 623 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: your tackle, because I think that's where the value is 624 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: on the board. But then I could see corner as well. 625 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: I think they could use a corner. I could see 626 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: wide receiver, maybe Drake London at thirteen if you like 627 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: him getting that size in that room. I'd like to 628 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: think probably those positions, like we said earlier, that impact 629 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 1: the pass and I think with the Texans it is 630 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: a very good opportunity to, you know, invest in those 631 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: positions early on, especially in the offensive side of the ball. 632 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 1: One reason that I've kind of leaned Evan Neil for 633 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: them is you've got Davis Mills, right, and you're giving 634 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: him a chance to become that guy. We don't know 635 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: if he's going to be the guy, but if you're 636 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: going to give him that chance, you need to invest 637 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,199 Speaker 1: in him and make sure that you support him as 638 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: much as you can. And in this class, with the 639 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: way the tackle position drops off after the first three. 640 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 1: I would love to get Evan Neil at that right 641 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: tackle spot alongside Laramie Tunsel. You know, that gives you 642 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: some flexibility and a top end tail on at right 643 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: tackle and then maybe get a wide receiver at thirteen. 644 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 1: We could see them double down on offense and then 645 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: take an edge rusher later on because the depth of 646 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: edge rusher is very strong in this draft as well. 647 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: Bottom line, the Texans have flexibility. That's something they haven't 648 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: had for a while, and it comes at a good 649 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: time because you are trying to take the next step 650 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: with Davis Mills and see if you can kind of 651 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: buoye that offensive transition. So there's a lot of flexibility. 652 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: That's what I would say what they're going to do there. 653 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: And I do think that having the extra picks in 654 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: this class, like you said, eleven picks very valuable, like 655 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: at thirty seven, sixty eight, eighty. You know, for me personally, 656 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 1: I think one of the strongest ranges in this draft, 657 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, maybe not at tackle but other positions is 658 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: you know, in that day two range, right, So having 659 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,959 Speaker 1: multiple picks in that range again very valuable. You can 660 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: kind of compound the growth that you get with two 661 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: first round picks, so they're in a good situation. Can 662 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: they make the most of it? The texts haven't really 663 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: proven that they can do that in the past. We'll 664 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: be thinking write the shift this year. Well, they've got 665 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: the draft capital to do it, and they've got a 666 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: lot of darts of the dartboard, that's for sure. That's 667 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: Ian Cummings, NFL draft analysts at the Pro Football Network 668 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: Pro Football Network dot com.
