Speaker 2: And what is this draft you speak of?

15
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,920

16

Speaker 1: here yesterday for the Nick Cassario party. We missed you

17

24
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,199

00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: Cassario special, A show a showcase with the press conference

28
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: and you caught up with him. I listened to that

29
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: on the way home as a matter of fact, very

30
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: nice interview, and the Draft Day movie subject came up again. Yeah,

31
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: he was bringing out You knew I was gonna bring

32
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: this up. Yeah, I mean that was the most intriguing

33
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: thing to me. No, I love the Wolf of Wall

34
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: Street reference by Nick. Movie reference is very good.

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: Nick.

36
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, how about that.

37
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: Do you think that was handed to him or no,

38
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: he's seen that, he's seen, he seen because he loves

39
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: the Wall Street stuff. Yeah yeah, yeah, he's also he's

40
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,919
Speaker 1: always talking about CNBC and this squalk box and stuff

41
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: like that.

42
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 2: He's called a box.

43
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 1: But he has not seen Draft Day. See, he'll see

44
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: The Wolf of Wall Street, which is a biography, but

45
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: he won't see Draft Day, which is not a biography.

46
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: All Right, this is pure fiction. Who I know you

47
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: watch it every year, and the guys were talking about

48
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: it this morning as well. I know you watch it

49
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: every year to get into the draft, right, and I

50
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 1: think it is a compelling film, but there are many

51
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: problems with it.

52
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, So we could either do this.

53
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: We can start out with the latest mock draft consensus

54
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: for the Houston Texans, or we can just make fun

55
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: of draft Day, which I know you don't want to do, Johnny,

56
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: but I want to crush your movie here a little bit.

57
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: That's sad. It is sad. Why crush my dreams?

58
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: I just want to so in the movie. I'm not

59
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: gonna do total spoilers here, but a couple of quick

60
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: scenes here in the movie for some reason, Kevin Costner

61
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 1: because they want to go after this quarterback bo Callahanders

62
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns right, supposedly yes, and Costner trades what everything

63
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: to get up to the number one pick, but he

64
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: ultimately picks the guy who was gonna pick anyway two

65
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: first to first three first because his first that he

66
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: was going to. It's a swap of first and then

67
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 1: the next two years number ones right to move up

68
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: to number one, But he doesn't take the quarterback because

69
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: he has a feeling that the quarterbacks not who he

70
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: thinks he is on the field. And then at some

71
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: point they get to the fourth pick in the draft,

72
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: and the thing that kills the whole movie for me

73
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: is when he says, who is the fourth pick? Like

74
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: on draft day itself, the general manager of an NFL

75
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: team would not know who has the first I don't

76
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: know thirty two picks they have that memorize. Certainly have

77
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: the first five picks. Certainly, if you were going to pick,

78
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: what were they originally seventh in this fictional showcase, they

79
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: were seventh. Certainly he would know one through six.

80
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: You would think, yes, who has it? Jacksonville.

81
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: And then he's on the phone with the Jaguars GM,

82
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: and I forget the name of the actor, but the

83
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: scene goes something like this, that's the Jacks GM.

84
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 4: What's wrong with Callahan?

85
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 5: Why is everyone passing on?

86
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: Why did you pass on him?

87
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 4: I told you we like Vonte better? Damn Sonny, I'm

88
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 4: about to be on the clock here. Please, what's wrong

89
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 4: with Callahan? And I'd be frank with you. Yes, I

90
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 4: think he's a bust.

91
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: Oh okay, So the Jags GM sounds so shaky. This

92
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: is not a good look for the Jags in this movie.

93
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,600
Speaker 1: By the way, I don't know if it's a good

94
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: look for anybody, but the Jags. GM sounds so shaky

95
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: about that, and Coostner says, I think he's a bust.

96
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: And later on they're gonna watch tape of bo Callahan

97
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: on draft night.

98
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, why not?

99
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 3: Why not you get I mean you get a final

100
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 3: view final viewing. Do you think this happens? I want

101
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 3: to ask Nick this, Do they watch tape? Wait, I

102
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 3: think I missed something. So I know we had six

103
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 3: months to prepare. I think I missed something. So the

104
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 3: Chargers either a year ago or two years ago. I

105
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 3: think it was last year. They they showed extended clips

106
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 3: to Tom Telesco, the GM. He had never seen it either,

107
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: and so oh they did this. Yes, he it was

108
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 3: hilarious because he's not like I think Nick would be.

109
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 3: Would do it even better because you hear without like

110
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 3: Nicko crack up at some things, like he'll laugh at

111
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 3: some things. Telesco. There would be a scene where Telesco

112
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 3: was like and he kind of looked around the room like, well,

113
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 3: doesn't happen like that? Like that, you know, Nick would

114
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: be laughing about it, yeah, and poking holes in it.

115
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 3: I just I just here's why I watch it every year,

116
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 3: not because it's believable. But in twenty fourteen, my first

117
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 3: year doing the draft, I had all day leading up

118
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 3: to the draft, and I just had to occupy my

119
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 3: time with something because I was like, I don't know

120
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: what to do.

121
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: I need to occupy my time.

122
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 3: So I went to the movie theater and I watched

123
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 3: a matinee of Draft Day and then did the draft

124
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 3: that night. Had a blast. I was like, that's gonna

125
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: be my ritual. That'll that's what I'll do every year.

126
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 3: I won't go to the movie theater obviously, but I'll

127
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 3: watch Draft Day. That's why I watched Draft Day, because

128
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 3: I watched it in twenty fourteen.

129
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: I think it's nice. I think it's nice. That's my ritual.

130
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 2: All right, So let's move ahead.

131
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna play every scene here, but this is

132
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: a scene where what is this Later, he's trying to

133
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: make a deal with the Seahawks, who he traded for

134
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: with He traded with them for the number one pick

135
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: originally correct. Now he wants to trade again and he

136
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: wants his two ones back and listen to this.

137
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: I want my number ones back, all of them.

138
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 2: That's crazy. Why would I give them back?

139
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 4: Because at the end of the day, no one's the wiser. Tom.

140
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 6: You haven't lost anything, and you get the quarterback messiah

141
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 6: you've always wanted for seven million dollars less.

142
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 7: Now.

143
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: No, I can't do it. I look like an idiot,

144
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 4: like I panicked. You take him? You obviously don't want you.

145
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 4: I'll stick with my draft picks.

146
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, but you want him, Tom, don't you. Seahawks fans

147
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 6: want a hero and you denied him.

148
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 4: Not that bad. Don't lie to me.

149
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 6: I checked all the Seahawks fan blogs and calling for

150
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 6: your head right away.

151
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 4: Callahan. The barbarians are at the gate.

152
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 2: I don't care about it.

153
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 4: Ah, Yeah, you do you and I know it. Oh.

154
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: I love that.

155
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 2: I've checked all the Seahawks blogs. You imagine Nick.

156
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 3: Nixon field goals today, checking it all out. He's checking

157
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 3: out with sir per dot com. Who the Panthers is same,

158
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 3: He's finding out, Hey, Scott Fitter, I read all about

159
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 3: it on sir per dot com. You guys like Anthony Richardson,

160
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 3: So let's get a deal done.

161
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 2: I could just see Oh, that's beautiful.

162
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: I've got nothing better to do but read the fan

163
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: sites of your team right now and spend time with

164
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: Jennifer Garner in the closet, because that could actually happen.

165
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: Not here, but if Jennifer Gardner existed in real NFL life,

166
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: and so did Kevin Costner, I could see that.

167
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 3: So after he makes the pick, it's funny because I

168
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 3: asked Nick this yesterday. I said, so, like, what happens

169
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 3: after you make the pick? Do you escape out? You

170
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: go the bathroom?

171
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 4: Do you like?

172
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: What do you do? No, It's it's like a game.

173
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 3: It's like, okay, first down, we did this, second now, okay,

174
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 3: we know when we're up next. We know the picks

175
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: in between, kind of track everything. And I just thought

176
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 3: it was funny because what does Kevin Costler do? He

177
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: makes that pick, and then he goes to his office

178
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 3: and that's where he starts talking with Jennifer Garner again. Yeah,

179
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 3: and while the draft is going on, all the draft

180
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: is going on, and my wife knows this. I would

181
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 3: tell her this, and she she knows full well she

182
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 3: knows because you know, twenty twenty, we did the draft.

183
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: It was the COVID Draft. And we did from home. Yeah,

184
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: and nobody came in that room.

185
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 3: Oh in that room that was in. I was like,

186
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 3: you don't even uhh, no way, no shape, some form.

187
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 3: Can you imagine if Nick just decides em, I'm gonna

188
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 3: go to my office for a little bit, my wife

189
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 3: might come in. We might share, you know, a sprite

190
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: or something like. No, when you're in draft mode, your

191
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 3: draft mode, like it's on, you don't turn it off.

192
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: You're on the entire time.

193
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: In this movie, he makes the first pick in the

194
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 1: draft from his office, not even from the draft room,

195
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: not even with the group. The best thing about this movie,

196
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: I think is Dennis Leary as the head coach getting

197
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: really frustrated, and it's Dennis Leary in typical Leary.

198
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 3: He keeps talking about the ring he's won. You know,

199
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 3: it's just it's classic. He burns a scouting report. At

200
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,439
Speaker 3: some point, He's calling teams behind Coster's back.

201
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: It's awesome.

202
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: Leary is one of the best coaches portrayed in a

203
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: movie ever.

204
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,839
Speaker 2: I think he's so good, so good.

205
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: And I don't know if I told you this, but

206
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: when I was in college he used to play, or

207
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: right after college, he used to play. This local comedy

208
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: club in Boston called played against Sam's in the basement

209
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: on Thursday nights.

210
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: No one knew who he was. We used to see

211
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:38,559
Speaker 2: him because it was.

212
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: Cheap beer down there, easy to hang out there, and

213
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: bleary eyed Dennis Leary would get on stage and just

214
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: do stand up and we didn't know he was going

215
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: to be a big star. But that's how we got

216
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: to know him anyway. Draft Day, that's the movie. We

217
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: thought we'd crushed it a little bit, but it's a

218
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 1: great tradition for Johnny. And you know what, watching some

219
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: of these scenes getting ready for this show makes me

220
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: want to see it again.

221
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: I do enjoy it exactly.

222
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: It's not terribly realistic, but it's fun because they do

223
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: get inside NFL buildings and the Texans are in it,

224
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: even with fictional characters playing management and all of that.

225
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: I forget what the Texans role is in all this.

226
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: Aren't they in the office of the fictional GM of

227
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: the Texans, Yes, And I forget what they do.

228
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: I don't know if they talk about a trade they

229
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 2: wanted to know about bo Callahan.

230
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: I think, okay, bo Callahan, no one went to his

231
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: birthday party, so that was a big problem.

232
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 3: We need talk Totin. That's the other thing we need

233
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 3: to talk to. We need to talk to our guy,

234
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 3: Brenton Karr because the security guy, the security guy in

235
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 3: Draft Day is one of the unsung heroes of that

236
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: with the stories he comes up with. We need to

237
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 3: get Brenton here and see what kind of stories he

238
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: can tell us from that.

239
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure.

240
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: He's going to share everything about these players, yay, especially

241
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: in this year's draft. Johnny and the mock draft. So

242
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: this is interesting and look, we feel it, but to

243
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 1: have Drew Doherty write it on Houston Texans dot com.

244
00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: The experts are almost split on which quarterback the tx

245
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: since we'll take second overall the NFL Draft if they

246
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: do take a quarterback. So a month ago, he says,

247
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: Bryce Young was projected to Houston on nearly eighty percent

248
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: of mock drafts. In the latest round of mock drafts,

249
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: he samples these every week, it's fifty two percent, So

250
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: it's dropped twenty eight percent. Young's stock of going to

251
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: the Texans has dropped twenty eight percent. Johnny, let me

252
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: ask you this, and sometimes I think it's good to

253
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: simplify it like this, is real information leaking out there?

254
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: Or is this just a narrative that's shaped by the

255
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: media itself?

256
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 2: Thank you?

257
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: Is there actual seepage of information from NFL draft rooms

258
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: like Carolinas or is there not. I know that it's

259
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: been said from the Carolina Panthers that there's clarity with

260
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: the first pick, and that leads everybody to believe it's Bryce.

261
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 1: But about a month ago, everybody was believing it was

262
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: Stroud and they've said nothing different, nothing to make you

263
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 1: think that that might have changed. It's all interpretation from

264
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: the outside looking in. Is there real seepage of information

265
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: going on?

266
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 3: Okay, let's take for instance, yesterday press conference. Laden the

267
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 3: press conference, our buddy be Scott Brandon Scott, who's been

268
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 3: sitting in for seth this week on sports Radio six ten,

269
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 3: shout out to be Scott Houston.

270
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: Houston guy. I just love him.

271
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: He asked the question about are you open for business

272
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 3: at number two? Yeah, and Nick's response was anything is possible.

273
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 3: And I swear to you when possible bull came out

274
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 3: of his mouth. As soon as he got to the

275
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 3: period at the end of that sentence. I remember thinking

276
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 3: they're gonna they're gonna run with him.

277
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 2: By they everybody.

278
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 3: Everybody's gonna run with that quote because it's not it's

279
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 3: a headline, because it's stamping the thought of oh they can.

280
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 7: Be but.

281
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: Anything is possible.

282
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that is you know, the Panthers could take

283
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 3: Stroud and leave the Texans with the thought of do

284
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 3: they want Bryce Young? Right, that could happen. They could

285
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 3: take anthro your richest and leave Stroud and Young. There

286
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 3: there's any He's right, anything is possible. But people are

287
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 3: reading into well, the Texas need a quarterback. And the

288
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 3: GM just went up and said that to me is

289
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 3: something that is triggering the odds people that know things

290
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 3: about the Texans. Michael Lombardi, Well, Mike Lombardi spoke. He

291
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 3: spoke from the pulpit of I know the people in Houston.

292
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 3: I've been in the NFL. Well that's what he's in

293
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 3: Vegas too. Yeah, he does a gambling show. So the

294
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 3: gamblers are like, all right, well, that guy's a qualified information.

295
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: Source and as soon he's talked to friend, right, right,

296
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: But honestly, but have they I don't think so.

297
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 2: I doubt it because I doubt it.

298
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: If I'm nick, I know Mike Lombardy I've worked with him, right,

299
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: I've worked in the same building as Weld tell him anything,

300
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: But is Mike even gonna call Nick? And if Mike

301
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: reaches out to Nick, is Nick gonna give him anything anything?

302
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: He'll be like, Hey, Mike, how's it going, how's the family?

303
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 2: That's it. That's it.

304
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: There's no chance. Now, some gms might say a little

305
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: bit more. Some people have a more difficult time keeping

306
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: their mouths shut. Nickosario is not one of those people.

307
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: But I don't know if the other gms in the

308
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: top ten are either Okay, I mean, I would assume

309
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: that they'd be pretty tight lift about what they want

310
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: out there.

311
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: I think they all are.

312
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 3: I do think there's probably a GM or three that will,

313
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 3: you know, plant a story with an agent with a

314
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 3: with a rap aport or a shifter or somebody of

315
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 3: that ILK that they may want out there and who

316
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 3: knows what it's on. So I do think that that

317
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 3: definitely happens. Now during a draft, I don't know about that.

318
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 3: I feel like teams are super secret with their draft

319
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: strategy and well, especially in a draft like this where

320
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 3: you don't know what I remember about last year at

321
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 3: this time last year, as they're looking at mock drafts

322
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 3: and we're going, wait, what's Jacksonville going to do at

323
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 3: number one? It really wasn't coming into focus. And then

324
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 3: I remember Tuesday, two days before the draft, all of

325
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 3: a sudden it was one Trayvon Walker. Now the Jaguars

326
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 3: didn't say that, but it was all signs like every

327
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 3: single reporter in the NFL Treyvon Walker, Trayon Walker, Trayon Walker,

328
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 3: looks like it gonna be Tradeon Walker, Trademon Walker, Trademon Walker.

329
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 3: And then you knew, okay, at that point, if they're

330
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 3: taking trade bon Walker, Detroit's probably taking a Hutchinson because

331
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: they need edge. So you kind of knew the first

332
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 3: two picks. Does that happen next week on Tuesday? Do

333
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 3: we find out Tuesday? Wednesday? Do we get some sort

334
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 3: of read yep Panthers number one pick, they already know

335
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 3: that they're gonna take Bryce Young.

336
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the old days, they could sign them.

337
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, you want to at that point because, yeah,

338
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 3: because you could draft them and then not know whether

339
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: you could sign that particular player. But if you signed them, great.

340
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 3: That's what the Texans did with Mario Williams way back

341
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 3: in the day. So I don't think. I don't think

342
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 3: anybody in NFL buildings speaks in earnest about you know,

343
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: of the Nick Cassario, Scott Fitt or you know GM.

344
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 3: You know, at that particular point, could you catch somebody slipping,

345
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 3: you know, a scout or whatever. Maybe, but I don't

346
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: know that you're gonna get that kind of stuff. I

347
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 3: think when people say, well, I got it from this source,

348
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: So I got it from this source, and then people

349
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 3: connect the dots, right, they connect a lot of dots. Well, okay,

350
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: because I was doc connected. I was doc connecting. I

351
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 3: texted you this morning. I'm like, oh, well, this this

352
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 3: quarterback was coached by this guy and was by this guy,

353
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 3: and those guys know these guys, and so it's got

354
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 3: to be you know, so you kind of try and

355
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: do that sort of thing.

356
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: There might be more validity to that, but that could

357
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: also talk you out of something. Yeah, he knows them

358
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: really well. And I got the word that maybe not

359
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: a great idea. So it could go either.

360
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 2: Western Hackenberg with Bill O'Brien.

361
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, just because Bill O'Brien coached Christian Hackenberg and got

362
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: a lot out of him in college didn't mean that

363
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: he was in love with Christian Hackenberg as an NFL prospect. Yes,

364
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: I mean it's a very different game. And these guys

365
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 1: who coach at both levels understand that well, and the

366
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: college coaches or whoever, they understand that the needs of

367
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: an NFL organization might be different. So yeah, you could

368
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: build a case either way in either direction for that.

369
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by all of it. Really, it's awesome, you know,

370
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: it's awesome.

371
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 3: I mean it's so to me, it's so cool because Mark,

372
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 3: I remember when I was in college a long time ago.

373
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 2: Well, I didn't have cable in my dorms or where

374
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: I lived out, and.

375
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 3: So I would have to go to a sports bar

376
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 3: downtown Providence and I would sit all day at the

377
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 3: table downtown Providence and watch the draft.

378
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 2: I would go through breakfast.

379
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 3: And lunch and dessert, and that would get me to

380
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 3: about pick twenty one or twenty two, and then I

381
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 3: was just like, Okay, I just gotta go, can't. I

382
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 3: can't afford to get dinner year too, So that's what

383
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 3: I would do on a Saturday because it was Saturday

384
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 3: and Sunday. And then I would just follow it as

385
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 3: much as they could on Sunday and then of course

386
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 3: read it in the newspaper the next day to see

387
00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 3: what it's become now and the interest that's in it.

388
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: It's just incredible.

389
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 3: It's absolutely incredible to see the fervor that there is now.

390
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 3: There needs to be a little bit more positive fervor,

391
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 3: especially in this town. Like he calmed down, like it's

392
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 3: getting a little out of hand, Like you get on

393
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 3: Twitter and it's just like.

394
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 2: Texas, don't do this.

395
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, just don't down, man, Relax a lot more of

396
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 3: the things that we can be upset about. Let's if

397
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 3: you don't like the guy the draft, great, understand you're

398
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 3: not happy with it.

399
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 2: That's fine, but give the guy a chance.

400
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: Here's my desire. I'd love to drive home from Miller

401
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: Outdoor Theater knowing who the quarterback of the future is, right, Okay,

402
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: at the very least, Johnny Friday Night, I gotta know

403
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: who the quarterback of the future is. I really, this

404
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: is my personal preference. I'll just say this out loud.

405
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: I don't want to wait till next year.

406
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 2: I agree.

407
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams looks great. You can't plan on Caleb Williams.

408
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 2: No, you do that. I know I don't think they

409
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 2: would do.

410
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: That, because that's planning to fail, not only fail, but

411
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: fail miserable. Right, you might project, you know what, we

412
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 1: might not have a winning season. Think that that's different.

413
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: Then we're going for the number one pick in the draft.

414
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 2: You can't do that. Think got miserable twenty twenty two

415
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 2: was miser We still got to pick two. Right, we

416
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 2: can get back once exactly.

417
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: You came down to a final play of the season

418
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: and you still had a chance at the number one pick,

419
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: and you didn't get it. And even if you had

420
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: it this year, do you really have your guy?

421
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 2: You might not.

422
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: Maybe you do think Caleb Williams is that much better

423
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: than Bryce Young.

424
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 2: I don't know.

425
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,479
Speaker 1: I don't know how they feel. I don't know how

426
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: anybody feels, but I know how I feel, and that

427
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 1: is I want a quarterback of the future this year

428
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: by Friday night, because I could see. Look, football organizations

429
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 1: can talk themselves into topic of the second round or

430
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: second pick in the second round on Friday Night, We're

431
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 1: gonna take I don't know, Jake Haner or Hendon Hooker

432
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 1: he drops, or whatever the case may be, And I'd

433
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 1: be okay with that. I'm on record saying I think

434
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: any one of those top five quarterbacks could be the

435
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 1: best player.

436
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 2: And if they think that.

437
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: One of those players is I'm alright with it. I'll

438
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: go with that for now and we'll see where it

439
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: takes us.

440
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 3: Let me ask you this question. Yes, week eleven the

441
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three season. Yes, is a veteran or a

442
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,640
Speaker 3: rookie starting for the Texans at quarterback?

443
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: Rookie unless he gets hurt in week seven? Right? Right?

444
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 2: I'm not sure I got gotcha.

445
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 1: I could never have predicted twenty seventeen.

446
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: By the way, that was bizarre.

447
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: I don't know if you were at the golf tournament,

448
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 3: and so I can't remember if I was listening on

449
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 3: the app later or why was happening.

450
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 2: I can't remember. But Landry, who I'll be on with tonight,

451
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 2: on his YouTube channel.

452
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 3: He said, Okay, with all this smoke around the Texans

453
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 3: trading down, what about trading with the Raiders and what

454
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 3: happens if you get Jimmy Garoppolo back?

455
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 2: How would you feel about that?

456
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 3: Because I drove for a while listening to it, and

457
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 3: he made a compelling case, and I don't know that he

458
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 3: was pushing it.

459
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 2: But he was just this is what it could be.

460
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: And I kind of was like, I feel, okay, short

461
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: term Garoppolo and Keenum, but I'm building for next year,

462
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: year after the year after as well. Right, this is

463
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: a whole process. I want all these guys to grow

464
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: up together. If they think that's what's best for the team,

465
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: and they've evaluated all these quarterbacks and think, nope, none

466
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: of these guys are gonna work out for us, that's

467
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: a risky bet. But if that's their evaluation, that's their evaluation.

468
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: Because they have the number two pick. So you're gonna

469
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: miss out on whoever Carolina picks, got it, Bryce Young, whoever.

470
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: You're telling me that the next four quarterbacks, none of

471
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: those players can help you win long term?

472
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 2: Interesting? All right?

473
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: Also interesting dpcity visiting with Rhet Lewis from NFL Network.

474
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: That's coming up. Then Johnny comes back. As Johnny comes back,

475
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: that sounds like a song. As we go around the

476
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: NFL contract, big one yesterday, the effect on the league

477
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: and whatever else is going on, We've got it for

478
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: you right here on Texans Radio. Keeping the draft talk

479
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 1: going here on Texans Radio. Let's get some national perspective

480
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 1: now from NFL Network retlud deep b Sit who had

481
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: a chance to catch up with him today.

482
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 2: So let's hear some of that conversation.

483
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 5: Rett.

484
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 8: I know you're really busy with the draft right now,

485
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 8: but I have got to ask you twenty twenty two

486
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 8: to twenty twenty three. I mean, these are completely different drafts.

487
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 8: So we're talking quarterbacks this year. We weren't even mentioning

488
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 8: quarterbacks this early in the draft last year.

489
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 7: I think it's a great point, DP, because I think

490
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 7: that is going to absolutely dominate the drama at the

491
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 7: top of the draft now that we get quarterbacks back

492
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 7: involved in that conversation with just Katie Pickett kind of

493
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 7: carrying the flag for the position in the first round

494
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 7: a year ago. Now, like I think we could certainly

495
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 7: see four quarterbacks in the top ten, maybe five in

496
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 7: the first round total. So I think there's just so

497
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 7: much drama and intrigue, and obviously the Texans will play

498
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 7: a big part of that. At number two.

499
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw your mock draft.

500
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 8: You have the Texans taking Ohio State CJ Stroud at

501
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 8: number two. So why Stroud over some of the other

502
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 8: quarterbacks in this draft class and even defensive players at

503
00:22:58,359 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 8: number two.

504
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 7: Well, I think there's a ton of options obviously for

505
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 7: the Texans evaluation crew to parse through at number two.

506
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 7: And look, if quarterback is a spot where you see

507
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 7: the face of your franchise for the next decade, and

508
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 7: you've got that kind of great on a player, you

509
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 7: got to take him. Like It's just that's the deal

510
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 7: in the NFL. Now, if you don't have one of

511
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 7: the top five quarterbacks, you better be on the hunt

512
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 7: for one. And so if that's you know, what the

513
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 7: Texas believe is sitting there at number two, then absolutely

514
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 7: it makes sense. And with CJ. Stroud, to me, he

515
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 7: could certainly fit that bill because he is the best

516
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 7: peer passer in the draft, plain and simple. He throws

517
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 7: the ball better than anybody on a consistent basis. Now,

518
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 7: are there things that Bryce Young from Alabama does that

519
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 7: makes him maybe a more attractive prospect overall? Yeah, sure,

520
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 7: he's a playmaker. He is an improvisational type of player.

521
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 7: Once he breaks the pocket, he is a sudden but

522
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 7: he's also a flight player in terms of frame, whereas

523
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 7: c J. Stroud represents the more prototypical build. So I

524
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 7: think that's a part of it. So I think He

525
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 7: fits and checked a lot of the boxes that you

526
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 7: want from today's quarterback. And I think he has a

527
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 7: little bit more ability talking about more mobility, talking about Stroud,

528
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 7: then maybe he is given credit for so I think

529
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 7: he would make a lot of sense. But look, if

530
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 7: you're happy with Davis Mills and you want to surround

531
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 7: him with more talent and make it go at it

532
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 7: that way, You've got a great choice of defensive players

533
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 7: there at number two. Will Anderson from Alabama, Tyree Wilson

534
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 7: from Texas, tex Jalen Carter from Georgia's steam to fit

535
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 7: that bill for me. So I'm really intrigued by the

536
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 7: options here with the Texans.

537
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 8: All Right, I'm gonna nail you down a little bit

538
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 8: because you mentioned defensive players and that's where I was

539
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,360
Speaker 8: going to go next. So, if it's not a quarterback

540
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 8: at number two, who do you want the Texans to

541
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 8: take at number two?

542
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 7: Like? If we go defensive, right, I think, So here's

543
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 7: the thing. You need a cornerstone, need a cornerstone to

544
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 7: build that defense into Miko Ryans's image over the next

545
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 7: you know, let's say, let's hope five to ten years

546
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 7: right in Houston, And so let's kind of bring the

547
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 7: astros into this conversation because they talk about this analogy

548
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 7: a lot with my buddies Daniel, Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks

549
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 7: on the Movie podcast. So with the first round pick,

550
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 7: you got to hit a double. Now, double doesn't sound

551
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 7: as sexy as a home run. Okay, it doesn't say

552
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 7: you know, but you know what every now and then

553
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 7: and now two Vey's stand up double. That works just fine.

554
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,719
Speaker 7: It puts you in scoring position and you're there and

555
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 7: you're ready to kind of at least you know you've

556
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 7: hit and you've found success. And to me, that's what

557
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 7: Will Anderson feels like at number two from Alabama. You've

558
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 7: seen the productivity at the highest level in college football

559
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 7: at Bama in the SEC over the last two years, right,

560
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,479
Speaker 7: So we've got a great body of work and just

561
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 7: feels like the type of player that you can hang

562
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 7: your hat on on the defensive side of the ball.

563
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 7: You can count on that player week in week out.

564
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 7: I think he's the safest pick in the draft, and

565
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 7: that's something we all that's also a that's frazing we

566
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 7: sometimes use for players that don't have the elites feeling.

567
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,520
Speaker 7: I still think he has that part of it too.

568
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 7: So I think Will Anderson, if not quarterback, just makes

569
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 7: the most sense because you're not going to miss on

570
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 7: a player like that, and he's got the ability to

571
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 7: be a ten year, multi time pro bowler and a

572
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 7: guy that can stand there and be the face of

573
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 7: your defense.

574
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 1: Continuing the conversation between d b Sidu and Rhet Lewis

575
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 1: of the NFL Network.

576
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 8: We heard general manager Nick Cassio talk about fielding calls

577
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 8: for that number two overall pick.

578
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 5: It could be in play. Maybe the Texans they trade

579
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 5: that spot to another team.

580
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 8: So give me a scenario where you think that could

581
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,360
Speaker 8: play out, where the Texans trade out of number two.

582
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 5: What you think is a possibility.

583
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 7: For last night, Well, it's kind of interesting because I

584
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 7: think if you're trading out of number two, you're saying

585
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 7: we're not sold on the second quarterback on our board,

586
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 7: or you're saying, we like the second quarterback on our board,

587
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,719
Speaker 7: but the value doesn't match up at number two, and

588
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 7: that's that's fine too. So at that point you're making

589
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 7: that decision. You know, if Bryce Young goes here, we

590
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 7: don't want we don't want the next person off our board.

591
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 7: At the quarterback spot at number two. Now, let's field

592
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 7: some calls. So you've already made those calls in advance.

593
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 7: You know what it's going to take to move down.

594
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 7: You've got some teams that might be wanting to move

595
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 7: up to take that next quarterback off the board. But

596
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 7: I don't want to move down too far where I

597
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 7: lose out on one of those three defensive players, right.

598
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 7: I want one of those three big defensive players, Tyree Wilson,

599
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 7: Jalen Carter, will Anderson. So to me, man, I really

600
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 7: don't want to get too much further, Like you know,

601
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 7: Gosh Dode, the Seahawks really want one of these quarterbacks.

602
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 7: They've been doing some of the homework on them. Maybe

603
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,439
Speaker 7: the Raiders at seven, and you could still kind of

604
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 7: find your way into one of those top defensive players,

605
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 7: or you know, you feel better about taking a quarterback

606
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 7: at seven or at six, and then you still have twelve.

607
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 7: So I think trading down is definitely a possibility.

608
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 8: All right, So let's talk about what you would consider

609
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 8: a success for the Texans with number two and number twelve.

610
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 8: Who do they pick or say not number two another

611
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 8: draft spot and number twelve. What's considered success with the

612
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 8: first two picks in the draft for the Texans.

613
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 7: I want a cornerstone. I want the cornerstones of your

614
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,640
Speaker 7: franchise here, right, So to me, take a quarterback at two,

615
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 7: take the best defensive player available to you at number twelve,

616
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 7: and you're setting yourself up to the next decade on

617
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 7: both sides of the ball. That's what I feel like.

618
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 7: This draft really represents that kind of opportunity.

619
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: So if C. J.

620
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 7: Stroud's the guy at two, let's come back at number twelve.

621
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 7: Let's look if Lucas van Ness is there from Iowa

622
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 7: at number twelve. Feels like a great opportunity to make

623
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 7: that pick there and to get a bona fide stud

624
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 7: on the defensive side of the ball that can help

625
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 7: you in a variety of ways. I do feel like

626
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 7: there's a little JJ Watt in his game, but I

627
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 7: don't want to say that too loudly. Okay, don't put

628
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 7: that out on Twitter just yet. We don't want to

629
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 7: make that type of comparison.

630
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 3: Yet.

631
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, right, you know, I think of a Nolan Smith.

632
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 7: I think well, Miles Murphy, I think of players in

633
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 7: that in that vein right there. So ideal scenario, you

634
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 7: get your franchise cornerstone on offense and defense, and you're

635
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 7: building for the next decade right there, all right?

636
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 8: I like it a big success from last year's draft

637
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 8: class Damian Peer. So in free agency the Texans added

638
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 8: a veteran running back in Devin Singletary. Now, how do

639
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 8: you think Singletary really compliments that backfield and what Pierce

640
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 8: is able to do.

641
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 7: I think it's a great point. I think it was

642
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 7: a great move by Nicosario and company there in Houston

643
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 7: to find somebody that offers you, maybe just a little

644
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 7: bit different of a skill set, right not necessarily the

645
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,719
Speaker 7: bowl in the China shop that Damian pierces with his

646
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,240
Speaker 7: running style, with the aggressive mindset that he has running

647
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 7: between the tackles, outside the everywhere he just wants contact

648
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 7: and finds it. Singletary a little bit more shifty, has

649
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 7: a little bit more of the elusiveness that you could

650
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 7: use as as that change of pace that we all

651
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 7: like to use that phrasing when we're talking about running

652
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 7: backs inbook. In this league, you've got to have more

653
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 7: than one. You've got to have two backs that can

654
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 7: get it done where you can give Damien a break.

655
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 7: You know, if you need to here and there, you

656
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 7: can spell them, and then you can also find ways

657
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 7: to excentuate his skill set. I think about the Kansas

658
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 7: City Chiefs winning the Super Bowl this year. I think about,

659
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 7: you know, Isaiah Pacheco, who has a little Damian Pierce

660
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 7: in him, right, and a physical, aggressive running style, and

661
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 7: then you throw Jerck McKinnon in there, and he's a

662
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 7: guy that gives you that Devin Singletary type of option.

663
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 7: So I kind of see a little bit of that,

664
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 7: a little bit of correlation with how the Chiefs operated

665
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 7: in the run game with maybe how the Texans can

666
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 7: by adding Singletary.

667
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: We could did do the conversation between Rhet Lewis of

668
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: the NFL Network and dB Zido.

669
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 8: All right, Well, the Texans receiving corps also ramped up

670
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 8: with some additions this offseason. The Texan signed tight end

671
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 8: Dalton Schultz and then also wide receiver Robert Woods. So

672
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 8: let's start with Schultz played tremendous football last year, especially

673
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 8: down the stretch for the Cowboys in the postseason. Just

674
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 8: a total touchdown scoring machine. So what does he do

675
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 8: so well as a tight end?

676
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think Schultz gives you that real option as

677
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 7: a pass catcher from that tight end spot, which you know,

678
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 7: allows you to work that middle area of the field

679
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 7: with some reliable hands, the ability to create some separation

680
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 7: with his athleticism, and then you know, I think just

681
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 7: you're looking at matchups with Dalton Schultz because you know,

682
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 7: when you got a guy like Robert Woods on the outside,

683
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 7: O'Collins on the outside, you know, counting on John Metchi

684
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 7: to come back this year, and you know, love all

685
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 7: the positive momentum that he's had in his recovery, and

686
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 7: so you add that in man, you've got a terrific

687
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 7: like eleven personnel group. In three wide receivers, one tight end,

688
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 7: you get pierced in the backfield. You've got so many

689
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 7: different ways to attack the defense. And Schultz is a

690
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 7: big part of that. I think, you know, in and

691
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 7: around the middle of the field, working some of those

692
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 7: benders in the middle, and then just again trying to

693
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 7: accentuate the matchup problems that they can cause there.

694
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 5: All right, how about Robert Woods, just a veteran wide receiver.

695
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 5: How to help a young quarterback?

696
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 7: Helps a young quarterback? I think it helps young wide

697
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 7: receivers looking to take the next step. Talking about a

698
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 7: guy like Nico helping shepherd, a guy like John Metchi

699
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 7: who essentially is going to be a rookie again this

700
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 7: year having not been able to play last year. I

701
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 7: think there's a lot to like about the veteran presence again,

702
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 7: a winning pedigree from his time in Los Angeles, having

703
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 7: been to a Super Bowl. Like, There's a lot that

704
00:31:56,120 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 7: Houston wants that Robert Woods has accomplished right in his career,

705
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 7: and I think he helps bring you back closer to that,

706
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 7: you know, when you were winning four division titles in

707
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 7: five years and back to back eighteen nineteen and that

708
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 7: sort of thing. So I just think the experience and

709
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 7: then just again reliability. You know where he's going to

710
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 7: be on the field, which whoever's playing quarterback back there

711
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 7: is going to be able to count on. I know,

712
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,480
Speaker 7: if I got to get the ball up quickly, I

713
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 7: know Robert's going to be exactly where he needs to be,

714
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 7: and I know where I'm going to be able to

715
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 7: find him, and I'm going to count on him to

716
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 7: catch the ball, move the sticks, keep the offense on

717
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 7: the field.

718
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 8: Texans also added a veteran on defense in Jimmy Ward.

719
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 8: Played a little bit of Nickel, Dimico Ryans says he's

720
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 8: definitely going to play safety, and then last year the

721
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 8: Texans drafted Gale and Petrie, another safety back there. So

722
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 8: what does the impact of a guy like Jimmy Ward

723
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 8: do for this Texans defense, especially having that he's played

724
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 8: for Demico Ryans before.

725
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 7: Well, first off, can we just take a hat tip

726
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 7: to everybody involved with the Texans draft class a year ago.

727
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 7: The fact that you get starter caliber players with your

728
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 7: first five picks is incredible in this day and age,

729
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 7: and like it really is. Yeah, players that you can

730
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 7: build around right all the way up at the top

731
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 7: with sting the Kenyan Green to Jaln Petrie to you know,

732
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 7: Christian Harris to John Metchi you know has that ability

733
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 7: when fully healthy and man, it was just and then

734
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 7: Damian Peers obviously, So there's so much to like about

735
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 7: that class. And then when you mentioned Jimmy Ward, like,

736
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 7: to me, that was the biggest free agent acquisition that

737
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 7: the Texans got this year because for Damiko Ryans to

738
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 7: implement the defense that we saw in San Francisco that

739
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 7: was the best in the league for the last couple

740
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 7: of years, he needs a vessel on the field. Somebody

741
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 7: who's been there and done that, and that is Jimmy Ward, who,

742
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 7: again win healthy, is one of the better safeties in

743
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 7: the league and now coming in with that experience in

744
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,400
Speaker 7: this system to help bring along a guy like Derek

745
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 7: Stingley and to help bring along a guy like Jalen Petrie.

746
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 7: I think that was an absolutely impactful signing. One of

747
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 7: those things that you've got to have, especially with a

748
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 7: first year head coach and then trying to install a

749
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 7: new defense in the first season as well.

750
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 5: We saw Shaq Mason right guard.

751
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 8: Also asked, this Texans O line that's anchored by Larrymylyn

752
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 8: Titus Howard, who really held it down last year.

753
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 5: So what do you like about the addition of Shaq

754
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 5: Mason to this O line.

755
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, again, a guy who's played in big games and

756
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 7: has played for you know, a quarterback who knows exactly

757
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 7: what he wants and you know, I think that understanding,

758
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 7: you know, the type of investment that the Texans are

759
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 7: going to put in the quarterback position here moving forward,

760
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 7: not just this year or next year, but you know,

761
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,479
Speaker 7: Shack Mason knows what that's like, you know, protecting both

762
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 7: in Tampa and New England, a guy like Tom Brady,

763
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 7: and so I think he knows what demanding quarterbacks are like,

764
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 7: he knows how to deal with those types of situations.

765
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 7: And you know, in understanding what's been put on him

766
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 7: as a potential starter for this team. And then look,

767
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 7: even if he's not a starter, maybe he's your sixth

768
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 7: offensive line and maybe he's your guy that can help

769
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 7: you and plug in right guard, left guard. You know,

770
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 7: if somebody goes down because you can't. You know, in

771
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 7: today's league, you need You're gonna need seven, eight, nine

772
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 7: offensive linemen just based on attrition. And so I feel

773
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 7: like he's the guy that he gives you some options on,

774
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 7: some flexibility there, and then just a proven commodity.

775
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: Continuing the conversation between Deep b Sidu and Rhett Lewis

776
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: of the NFL Network, All right, one more for you.

777
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 8: Denzel Perriman linebacker who had one hundred and fifty four

778
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 8: tackles for the Raiders in twenty twenty one, set a

779
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 8: franchise record for them, and then last year fourteen tackles

780
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 8: for loss. So how important was the addition of pairman

781
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 8: to really help Demiico build that type of defense that

782
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 8: he wants.

783
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 7: Deep e get ready for the boom because Denzel Perryman

784
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 7: is an absolute hit stick, ready to just waiting to launch.

785
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 7: And so that's the one thing I loved about his

786
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 7: game both when he was with the Chargers when he

787
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 7: was with the Raiders, had that Pro Bowl caliber season

788
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty one. Denzel Perryman is a stud and look,

789
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 7: I think he is a guy that can set a

790
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 7: tone for a defense. And look, when you're playing Derrick

791
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 7: Henry twice the year, you want a guy that on

792
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 7: the flip side. Because we know that Derrick Henry can

793
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 7: dictate the pace of a game and set the tone

794
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 7: for the offince. You want a guy that can match

795
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,439
Speaker 7: that type of intensity and physicality on the other side,

796
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 7: and Denzel Perriman certainly fits that bill. The question is,

797
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 7: you know, can you stay healthy for a full season.

798
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 7: We saw what he was capable of in twenty one

799
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 7: when that happened. Other years he's been fighting injuries. So

800
00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 7: let's hope he stays healthy because he's an impact player.

801
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 5: If so, all right, love the insight RHTT as always,

802
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 5: So tell me about yourself.

803
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 8: It's draft season, So yeah, you run ESP and you

804
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 8: I know you're just everywhere right now.

805
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 5: But tell me what you're doing these days.

806
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 7: Yeah. So obviously, in addition to Paths of the Draft,

807
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 7: which we run weekdays up until the Draft on NFL

00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 7: class talks some experts around the league. We have some

817
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 7: fun with mock draft, so we've got another episode there,

819
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 7: a lot of look work. It's my favorite time of

820
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 7: year when we get to kind of merge the college

821
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 7: and pro games. I just I live for the Draft.

822
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 7: I live for this time, probably because my sister and

823
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 7: I grew up torture New Orlands Saints fans and without

824
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 7: a lot of wins, the draft was our super Bowl.

825
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 7: So I love this time of year and I always have.

826
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 7: But I love geting a chance to talk to you

827
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,240
Speaker 7: as well, and to hang out with my Texans friends.

828
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 5: It's always fun.

829
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 8: And your sister Morgan, she works for the Texans and

830
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 8: she has great stuff just hailing our players and player

831
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 8: availability and just does so much for that program as well.

832
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 5: And you're one of our favors. We're definitely biased towards you.

833
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 8: RTT, so appreciate the time as always, looking forward to

834
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 8: seeing all your draft coverage.

835
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 5: Have a great draft, and thanks again for the time.

836
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 7: All right, thanks a bunch, deep appreciate it.

837
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 2: All right.

838
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: There it is dB City with RHT Lewis of NFL Network.

839
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: Next segment, Johnny comes back. We react to what's going

840
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: on around the National Football League and beyond and as

841
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: it applies to the Texans. You know the number two

842
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 1: pick is going to come up again because it always does.

843
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 1: It's Texans, Texan's All Access. It's been a fun show

844
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: and we're running out of it. Johnny Harris comes back

845
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: and Jalen hurts contract. John when you look at the

846
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: guaranteed money, it's not Watson money. But the conversation shifts

847
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: to Lamar Jackson. Lamar Jackson's got to get more than

848
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. I think most people agree with that. I

849
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,439
Speaker 1: heard a debate on the Morning Show today about hey,

850
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: he runs a lot. Is this gonna be good long

851
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: term for the Eagles? That's their problem. I like Jalen Hurts.

852
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: I know you do too, ye. Thing I like about

853
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts is he's already shown the ability big time

854
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: to change, evolve, improve, the drive to do it. And

855
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: I think it's well worth the investment. And Lamar Jackson

856
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 1: is amazing. Ken he stay healthy? Will he stay healthy?

857
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 1: Will he get Deshaun Watson type money?

858
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 2: I don't know.

859
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if the picture is any more clear

860
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 1: than it was before the Hurts contract, but it does

861
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: up the endy. You see what the effect that Watson

862
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 1: deal had on the entire market.

863
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 3: Here's one of the things the NFL teams are gonna

864
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 3: have to figure out. Took him a long time to

865
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 3: figure out how to incorporate quarterbacks legs effectively into an offense.

866
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 3: You're now gonna have to figure out this. How do

867
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 3: you pay these quarterbacks that run the football? And does

868
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 3: this contract become in I'm not saying Jalen has a

869
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 3: Jalen protects himself pretty well.

870
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 2: But when they get third and short, what do they do?

871
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 2: They put him under center.

872
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 3: And the last night looked the Texans went quarterbacks against

873
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 3: the Bucks in fat Albert Haynes where it stepped on

874
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 3: matt jobs foot and he was done on a Super

875
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 3: Bowl potentially winning year.

876
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 2: So the NFL teams are gonna have to figure that out.

877
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 3: Hopefully, they're figuring it out with Jalen Hurts, like, hey, look,

878
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 3: Jalen means that much to our organization. Run past whatever,

879
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 3: he's it, he's him, As they would say, you're gonna

880
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 3: have to figure it out for Lamar Jackson too.

881
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,280
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to figure it out.

882
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 3: For well, they've already kind of figured out a guest

883
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 3: in Arizona with Kyler Murray. But quarterbacks that move and

884
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 3: run and they do this like Anthony Richardson. If Anthony

885
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 3: Richardson's a hit an NFL, you're gona have to figure.

886
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:01,919
Speaker 2: Out how to pay.

887
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to get over that fear of, oh boy,

888
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 3: he's a runner. We can't pay him because we don't

889
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 3: know if he's going to be right. The NFL is

890
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 3: gonna have to figure that out. So they've kind of

891
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 3: figured out along the waits taken him a little bit,

892
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 3: but now that's the next step in the evolution. How

893
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 3: do you pay guys that can run a football. It's like,

894
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,880
Speaker 3: you know, Josh Allen's gotten paid. They kind of figured

895
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: it out. They know he takes some hits, but they've

896
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,320
Speaker 3: figured out teams are gonna have to do that as well.

897
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 3: The Lamar situation has been fascinating, you know that. I've

898
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 3: thought that for a while. I'd love to talk about

899
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 3: it because it's just really interesting to me how this

900
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 3: is all going to go down for him. I don't

901
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,439
Speaker 3: think he leaves Baltimore. I did it in my mock.

902
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 3: I had him going to Washington just for fun. But

903
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 3: I've always thought he's going to staying in Baltimore. I

904
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 3: think they're gonna get a deal done soon.

905
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: Well, a lot of people are talking about Texans trading

906
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,280
Speaker 1: with the Colts, the Colts going for Lamar Jackson.

907
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 2: Who knows what the heck happens.

908
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: But let me go back to the number two pick,

909
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 1: as we always return to this, Johnny come back home,

910
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, he's there at number two. Is there a

911
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: possibility that the Texans say, you know what, he's best

912
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: playmaker in this draft among the quarterbacks. Let's go ahead

913
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: and take him. I'll worry about year five and six later.

914
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,919
Speaker 1: I want him right now making plays for my football team.

915
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: I think that sounds a little of a stretch, but

916
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: maybe it's not the strangest thing in the world either.

917
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 3: I don't think it's the strangest thing in the world.

918
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 3: Quoting our GM Nick Cassaria, what do you say yesterday?

919
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 3: Anything is possible, Anything is possible? And I think that's

920
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 3: that's anything that is definitely anything. I mean, it would

921
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 3: there would be some kind of hairy moments, but man,

922
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 3: it would be fun to watch him. I mean, I've

923
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,359
Speaker 3: already thought through hit a seventy five yard run.

924
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 2: Against who's that against? Was against Utah?

925
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 3: I think no, Lsu Lsu hit a seventy five yard

926
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 3: touchdown run. Can you imagine calling a seventy five yard

927
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 3: quarterback touchdown run?

928
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 2: Let's go.

929
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: I think, look, if he be exciting, if he was

930
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 1: the pick Miller outdoor theater, it's going to erupt.
