Burn download the afterday, make every moment more. 10 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: We are live and in person in broad Ripple O 11 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: Brett Kilroy's NFL Day two draft party. Am I saying 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: that right, nailed nailed it. We didn't have the Day 13 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: one draft party, coach because well, quite frankly, for the 14 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: third time in four years, we have not had a 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: number one pick. So Day two season Colts having selections 16 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: in the second round and third round today number four, 17 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: two and seventy three, and I want to start it. 18 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: There were nine trades yesterday, so a lot of business, 19 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff going on in the NFL, not 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: only grabbing players out of college, but you know veteran 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: players making some moves and definitely moving teams eleven pick 22 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: trades that were agreed to before the draft again and 23 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: it made for an exciting evening. Guys, number eleven, twelve, 24 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: and thirteen, we saw Markeys Brown dealt from the Ravens 25 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: to the Cardinals, a J Brown goodbye out of the 26 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: AFC South, traded to the Tennessee Titans, traded from the 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans to Sirianni's Eagles. And I'll start with you, 28 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: what do you make of all this wide receiver movement? 29 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: Big money being spent early on in this thing, when 30 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: we saw Christian Kirk go to the Jaguars for big money. 31 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: What's going on? Coach? Well, the term I would use 32 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: is evolution in two ways. Number One, I think the 33 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: receipt the value of receivers today is so much greater 34 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: than it was perceived five years ago. Okay, I think 35 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: there's a hell of a lot more involved. You're gonna 36 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: see a bunch more come off the boards. And I 37 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: think the I think the basically the spread offense in college, 38 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: the seven on seven camps teams are spitting out receivers. 39 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: And then the second part of the evolution is they 40 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: are really getting paid now. I don't know that I 41 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: can agree with that. I'm kind of like mad, I 42 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: mean I can't. I don't know how you can pay 43 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: your quarterback third and then and then pay your receivers 44 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: twenty seven million. But at this point they're getting paid, 45 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: and so you're seeing this chaotic movement and as soon 46 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: as you lose somebody, you get somebody. I mean, Tennessee 47 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: was amazing. I mean they announced the Brown tape, you know, 48 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: when they draft Burke within ten minutes. I mean it 49 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: was I was like, oh, well, we got that. I mean, 50 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 1: in the Baltimore situation, Arizona had Hollywood Brown at their 51 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: draft party. I mean, so all these things have been 52 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: in the works. Again, it's like nothing I've ever seen 53 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: because the receiver position was undervalued up until just recently, 54 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: and then number two, it was never overpaid. Yeah, I mean, 55 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: right now, you talk about a guy like hey J. 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: Brown going from a rookie contract where he's making about 57 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: four million dollars a year to twenty five for the 58 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: next four years. It's just I don't think it's sustainable. 59 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: To your point, Rick, you can't pay your quarterback thirty 60 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: plus and your wide receiver twenty five plus. If you 61 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: do that, you're gonna be shopping at Dollar General. The 62 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: rest of the way, it's safety or guard or linebacker. 63 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you saw teams like you know, 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: in the off season, Kansas City in Tennessee and Green 65 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 1: Bay they're trading these wide receivers because it's just getting 66 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: too steep. When you already have a guy like Aaron 67 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: Rodgers or Patrick Mahomes, you just you can't keep up 68 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: with all these escalating prices at that position. But that 69 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: being said, six receivers in the top eighteen, that's never 70 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: happened before, other marquee receivers being traded. It's fascinating to 71 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: see what's happening now because you've got receivers going at 72 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: the top of the draft. You've got receivers that are 73 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: proven in this league going to other teams via trade. 74 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: It's clear though that teams are saying, this is what 75 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: we have to do to compete, and we have two 76 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: ways to go about it. We can get guys that 77 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: are going to turn into those guys, or we can 78 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: go pay for the guys that are proven in the 79 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: NFL that have produced these last three or four years. 80 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: On Sundays of the National Football that's Matt Taylor Boys 81 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: of the Colts. Here with Rick ben Urry. I am 82 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: the gore Man wearing broad ripple at Kilroys the Colts 83 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: Day two draft party presented by our friends at bud Light. 84 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: Come on down. A lot of giveaways going on. The 85 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: cheerleaders are gonna be here. Big Joe Wrights will be 86 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: down here, the big Man signing some autographs. Let's get 87 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: back to the draft, Rick, I want to talk about 88 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: the positional depth at forty two, specifically wide receiver. Everybody's 89 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: saying the Colts are gonna nab a wide receiver at 90 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: forty two. It's most needed. We hear that all across 91 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: the media boards, national and local. But there's also an 92 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 1: offensive tackle question mark that's going on right now. What 93 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: are we looking like at forty two? Coach Well, I 94 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: think at forty two, I think basically you're gonna have 95 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: a cluster of players whose grades are very similar. I 96 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: think if Raymond makes it, the left tackle from Central Michigan, 97 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: I think he's the only guy that would legitimate be 98 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: a left tackle pick at for nine nine wide receiver. Now, 99 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: the other people in the cluster is you have several receivers, 100 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: you have a ton of receivers with Pickins, Watkins, Pierce, Shakier, 101 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: a Gray, Jones, sky More. I mean you you have 102 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: a lot of depth, more depth at that position than 103 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,679 Speaker 1: any position. And then I think tight end is maybe 104 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: available to us because the tight end position is there 105 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: isn't a great one at this day. But there's a 106 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 1: very good Jack Doyle type in McBride who is a 107 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: very good even faster than Jack. And then you have 108 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: Jelaney Woods, who I really like out of Virginia, who 109 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: you shoot high for, you know, who has a tremendous ceiling. 110 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: So I think within those three positions, I think you're 111 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: gonna have real quality. And obviously you never turn your 112 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: back on a corner if he slips to you. You know, 113 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: defensive line is under valued, particularly the interior, but there's 114 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: gonna be guys there. There's no question in my mind 115 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: at forty two you're gonna get a good player. Hear 116 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: what coaches saying, Matt, everybody's saying wide receiver, wide receiver, 117 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: But you gotta fill other holes. Like coach said, defensive line. 118 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: We got some cornerback depth issues and stuff going on. 119 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: What do you like at forty two? Mate? I agree 120 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: with Rick I think it's first a Listen, this is 121 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen inevitably, because when you're picking this second round, 122 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,559 Speaker 1: in third round, every team has holes, every team has needs. Okay, 123 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what year it is, you're gonna go 124 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 1: into that particular draft and have something that is sort 125 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: of a burning question for you from one offseason to 126 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: the next. So I think inevitably what's gonna happen here 127 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: for the Colts is position of need and highest player 128 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: on your board are going to intersect. And that's it. 129 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: That's when it becomes easy. When it becomes tricky, is 130 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: what Rick is alluding to is when just to keep 131 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: it simple, like if you're if you're rating players one 132 00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: to ten, if ten is the highest on your draft board, okay, 133 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: if you have a tackle that's an eight or a nine, 134 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: or a wide receiver that's an eight or a nine, 135 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 1: that's when it becomes tricky because you know, maybe maybe 136 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: it's a guy that's said an offensive tackle position that's 137 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: at a nine, receivers at a seven. So that's when 138 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: it becomes a little bit murky. But the Colts are 139 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: never going to reach. They're always gonna take best player available. 140 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: And if you reach for a position of need and 141 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: get it wrong, well guess what you got the same 142 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: needs next year and you're not a good football. We're 143 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: at the Colts Day two draft party at kill Roys 144 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: and Broad Ripple, Rick, Ben Turrey, the ball coaches here, 145 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: matey boys, and the Colts.

Just check 178 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 1: it out on cools dot com. Day two. I love 179 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: this for Chris Ballard because he has a, you know, 180 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: a success history with getting the second day picks. Right, 181 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: let's go over some of them. Okay, Leonard Smith, he's 182 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: in Taylor Pittman. All second rounders, you know what I'm saying. 183 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: Solid contributors like Taekwon, Lewis, Kamoco Terrey. You those guys 184 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: are second day guys. But he loves to trade coach 185 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: we He talks about getting more pi He talks about 186 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: it at his press conference, Give me more picks. I 187 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: don't know how I'm gonna do it, but I'm gonna 188 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: find him. Can we expect that today? Yeah? I think 189 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: you can. I think because when we get to forty two, 190 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have a cluster of players, like, 191 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: for instance, there may be five receivers with good grades 192 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: that if you backed up maybe three spots, you might 193 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: be able to get him. I'm not a trade back guy. 194 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: I think it's a cop out. I think you explained 195 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: that to me real quick, because you did earlier, and 196 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: I love it. Okay, it's a coast of the ball. 197 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: You rate your player, Okay, from top to bottom. You 198 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: rate a guy number forty six, he's better than number 199 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: fifty five. So to me, every time you move back, 200 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: you go down talent wise exponentially. So I think you 201 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: have to be really careful with it sometimes. I think 202 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: sit there, make the tough decision between a couple of 203 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: guys and go on. Now, if it's a trade back 204 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: two or three spots and you pick up a premium 205 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: draft pick, fine, But if you pack in with threes 206 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: and fours and fives, all you're really doing is changing 207 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: oil because those guys are interchangeable. We lost seven guys 208 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: to free agency and went right on because there are 209 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: interchangeable parts in a team. So what we need is 210 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: guys that can help us win twenty two. We've done 211 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: that in the off season, but now we have to 212 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: do it in the draft. I'm gonna ask Metay first 213 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: and follow up with coach Rick van Urry here and 214 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: Ripple at kill Roys. This is the last word. We 215 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: got a coach Draft Day two, Day two draft party, 216 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: the Colt raft party right here in broad Ripple Matte 217 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: at forty two, add number forty two. Are there future 218 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: star receivers they're available in this draft? Coach, I'm gonna 219 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: ask you, because everybody's been chirping about we've got a 220 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver heavy draft. Yeah, heck yeah, absolutely, there's there's 221 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, there's future All Pro guys. There's future Pro 222 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: Bowl guys at receiver at forty two for the Colts. 223 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: I mean, but that being said, I think we should 224 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: temper expectations a little bit in terms of what they're 225 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: going to translate into next season. But that does not 226 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: diminish the Colts need and dependency on one of these 227 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: guys for the upcoming season. Don't get that misconstrued. There's 228 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: only been one Colts receiver, rookie receiver ever in the 229 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: history of the franchise that's gone over a thousand yards 230 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: in his first year. That was Bill Brooks back in 231 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six. Brooks. But I mean, just as Rick said, 232 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: I mean Danny Gray out of SMU, Sky Moore out 233 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: of Western Michigan, Alec Pierce at A Cincinnati. These are 234 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: guys that project very very well, very very high in 235 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: the NFL, and at least one of those guys, probably 236 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: multiple of those guys are going to be sitting there 237 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: when the Colts are on the clock at forty two. 238 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: But I think their biggest dilemma is gonna be if 239 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: Bernard Raymond at tackle still available, what do you do? 240 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: Do you take a tackle with his measurables and what 241 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: he projects to be as a depth piece on the 242 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: offensive line next year. Or do you take a wide receiver, 243 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, the the ninth, tenth, eleventh best receiver in 244 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: this in the coach, you just dride receiver at forty two. 245 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: He's a Day one starter. Am I wrong? No? That's right? 246 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: And I think the perception of receivers five years ago 247 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: and today is different. And you don't have to come 248 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: in to be a thousand yard guy. What you have 249 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: to do is be a guy that threatens the field, 250 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: that gives you another dimension on the outside, so they 251 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: can't sit down and jam the running like they did 252 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: a year ago and like they do every year by 253 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: the end of the season. Okay, mate, quarterbacks, I want 254 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: to get to this. Kenny Pickett the only one picked 255 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: last night, right, the only one after five quarterbacks were 256 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: taken in Round one of last year's NFL Draft. What's 257 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: more surprising than just one quarterback jing drafted? Was it 258 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: that it wasn't Malik Willis out of liberty. Everybody's loved 259 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: this kid, all right. He was seen by many as 260 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: a top quarterback in it. Certainly the prospect with the 261 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: most upside guy. All right, that's what they're saying about. 262 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: So with so many quarterbacks still on the board, mate, 263 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to you first, We've got Ellinger on this roster. 264 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 1: Don't forget that, dude, Are we getting the same guy? 265 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: If we take a guy at the seventy third, one 266 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: oh one, what a sort of mid range round draft pick. 267 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: I think, hypothetically it's worth talking about because there are 268 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks available. As you said, there was only one take 269 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: in last night, and it is the most pressing long 270 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: term need for the Colts. They are three years in 271 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: the post Andrew luck era, if you will, so, hypothetically, yes, 272 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: you can't cross that off. But it's all about a valuation, 273 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: and you know, I think it all boils down to 274 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: whether or not they are absolutely sold on a prospect. 275 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: If they are, you just can't ignore that. But I 276 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: think the downside of that is if you draft a 277 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: quarterback on Day two, and let's also be real, this 278 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: is not you know, this isn't Fields in Chicago, right, 279 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: this isn't last year's quarterback class. So if you draft 280 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: a quarterback at forty two, the ideas that eventually in 281 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: a couple of years you're gonna give this guy the 282 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: keys of the car, but it's not gonna be until 283 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: year three. And this team has pressing needs right now. 284 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: They want to compete right now in the AFC with 285 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: a really good quarterback in Matt Ryan. So that's what 286 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: it's going to boil down to a quarterback. I think 287 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: you're on the same page as Mate. First of all, 288 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: never say everybody okay. I was never in favor of Willis. 289 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: The selection of Pickett validated me. And if we get 290 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: back to this, to me, the intriguing guy is Ritter. Now, 291 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it on the second round, says I'm 292 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: at it. I have the rams in me. I want 293 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: to win now. I worry about next year. Next year. 294 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: We are a team that is positioned to win in 295 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: two twenty two. Let's get somebody that's on the field 296 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: from day one and makes a little bit of a difference. 297 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: Look for it. Look for it. That's coach Rick Venturi, 298 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: Mate voice and the Colts here.

Since two thousand and seventeen, 340 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: the Colts general manager Chris Ballard has drafted twelve players 341 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. In the first 342 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: three rounds. Okay, by comparison, just five picks have been 343 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: spent on the offensive side of the ball. Who are they, 344 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: Chris Ballard offensive guys by the ball? Well, the first 345 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: the first two guys are really obvious. It's it's Pittman 346 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: and Taylor Bombo and those are those are top ten guys. 347 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: Um Smitty the right tackle, top ten guy. And I mean, 348 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: if you evaluate those kinds of picks, you're very confident 349 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: for tonight because he has been a master of the 350 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: second and third day. I don't think there's any question 351 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: about it. And I am buying myself sometimes. This is 352 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 1: the hell of a filibuster. Man, Okay, I'm gonna go. 353 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Quentin Nelson every day, 354 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go Paris Campbell. It is Paris Campbell. 355 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: I was thinking of twos. I wasn't the top three. Yeah, 356 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 1: my mind is on those number two. There you go, 357 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: Paris Cambell. Hey, really quick, give me ten seconds.

Day one winners, maytay, you're up. 370 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: Give me the winners from the first round. Nothing about 371 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: the second round because it's coming up and you are 372 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: looking for the coach to be Day two winners. But 373 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: last night, first round, who'd you like? All Right, I'm 374 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: going I'm going Lions and I'm going Jets, the Jets 375 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: with Sauce Gardner at four, and then they landed Ohio 376 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: state wide out Garrett Wilson at ten. Then they traded 377 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: up to grab Florida State defensive and Jermaine Johnson Rick 378 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: who a lot of people thought he was gonna go 379 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: in the top ten, but he falls to twenty six. 380 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 1: So some really good value there and then the Lions 381 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 1: get Aiden Hutchinson at number two that they trade up 382 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: big time, right, they go what from thirty two or yeah, 383 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 1: thirty two to twelve to get Jamison Williams, who might 384 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: be the most explosive wide receiver in the draft class 385 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: win healthy. But we'll see when that is. So I'm 386 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: going Lions and Jets. Yeah, I think. I think Matt 387 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: hits it on the head. I think particularly the Jets 388 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: because three elite players, elite players Gardner, Wilson, and Johnson 389 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: and all in game changing positions, very high important positions. 390 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: But I will say this, if you have three number 391 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: one draft you're a freaking idiot if you don't have 392 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: a good year. Okay, to me, the best team, to me, 393 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: the best team in this draft yesterday who maneuvered to 394 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: get where they had to get and they are they 395 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: are ready to win right now is the New Orleans 396 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: Saint Oh. We love it because they had two crittical 397 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: guys that not only are super talents, but they fit 398 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: needs a star you know that is a lave a 399 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: number one and big and the big tackle Penning from 400 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: Northern Iowa. And again the reason I say that is 401 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: those are teams are compete ready. Okay, they maneuvered to 402 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: get those two pens. All right, go ahead, GM, Matt Taylor, 403 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: your dream scenario tonight, the general manager for a second, 404 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: go ahead, dream scenario, second third round to night. What 405 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: do you do? All I'll go real quick. I think 406 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: you're gonna see the Colts trade back, either in the 407 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: second round or third round. That is the the history 408 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: of Chris Ballard fourteen Draft a Day trades since twenty seventeen. 409 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: And then I'm not gonna put It's got to be 410 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: this or that. I'm saying best player available probably in 411 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: all likelihood will intersect again at either tight end, tackle 412 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: or receiver. Rick all right, three guys I want to 413 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: walk out of here with, and it might have to 414 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 1: come all the way till Saturday morning.

I walk out 418 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: with those three guys, I'm going home. You can do 419 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: the rest. Hold on a minute, are they more?
