You're listening to Steelers Nation Radio and 7 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 2: ESPN nine seventy. 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: This is the Drive. 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: And as we do at the top of our number 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 2: three here met, as we've done throughout this training camp, 11 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: it's time for the Fantasy Football focus. 12 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: And it's nice you finally know, finally got my draft 13 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: flocked for drafting home league. People were worried about that. Yeah, 14 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 1: this has gone on since like nineteen ninety three or 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: something we started this league. But I am picking five 16 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: in a twelve team league, so I wanted to run 17 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: one back and just kind of get my first taste 18 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: of what I'm gonna do, you know, try to figure 19 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: this thing out. I don't love the spot, but whatever, 20 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: we'll make it work. I'll still win this at least 21 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: your brownie's, you know. Right. It's a half PPR league 22 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: half PPR, so. 23 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: That changes things a little bit slightly. We're also only 24 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: you also only start two wide receivers instead of the 25 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: three we had been drafting. So it's one quarterback, two 26 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: running backs, two wide receivers, a tight end, a flex 27 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: which you can be a wide receiver, running back, or 28 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 2: tight end, one defense, and one special teams. We're gonna 29 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: draft six bench players as well. You draft more than that, 30 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: which we do, but it really scrape in the bottom 31 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 2: of the barrier. 32 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: It does. The end of the draft, everyone's kind of 33 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: looking at each other cross eyed for one thing, and 34 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: the uh, it's hard to find good guys on the water. 35 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 1: This is not a super flex either. Okay, So we're 36 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and that's out of our pay grade. 37 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: We're gonna go. 38 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: Ahead and draft that today on Draft Wizard Fantasy. 39 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: Co pilot here to give me a good strategy. 40 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 2: Going okay, and this is kind of how we thought 41 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 2: it was gonna go here to a certain degree. So 42 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson goes first to Lambda Slaughter, then Smile for 43 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 2: the Kamara took Christian McCaffrey at two three was judged, 44 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: Judy's took Jamar Chase and then to infinity and Bejon 45 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 2: took Austin Echolar, Tajon. 46 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: And then so pumped. 47 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 2: The Drakes is then at one six, one seven is 48 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: four Netflix and chill. One eight is Apple of My 49 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 2: ayuks uh. One nine is Stafford f one fifty one, 50 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: ten is Marshall Lawrence. One eleven is the Jackson five 51 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 2: nice uh and one twelve it hurts so good. 52 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 1: One Okay, that's a new one. Yeah, yeah, I haven't 53 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: heard these names in a while. We've been locked it 54 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: up in least a week. 55 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 2: So for me, you got a choice of three guys here, Tyreek, Interested, 56 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey, or Bjeon Robinson. 57 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: One of these days. I mean, I'm gonna run one 58 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 1: of these with Kelsey as the pick, or a couple 59 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: of them, probably over the weekend until we talk next. 60 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: But I'm not willing to go down that road yet. 61 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: They're also the top suggestion for you here is Cooper 62 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: Cup Oh no, no, no, So I want help on these. 63 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: I mean this is a this isn't just my team. 64 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 1: I lean towards Bijeon here. I think there's a bit 65 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: of a gap between him and the other running backs 66 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: to consider at this point. Yeah, you cool with that? Yeah, 67 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: all right, let's do. 68 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: Think Bjeon Robinson's I can't believe to infinity and Bijon. 69 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: What are you even doing? You gotta change your name, 70 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: you gotta change your name. 71 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: Now he took Echolar right, Okay, so now you get 72 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: a little bit of a weight here. So the rest 73 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 2: of the first round in this one, we haven't done 74 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: one of these in a while, so we'll read it off. 75 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 2: So Travis Kelsey went at one six. 76 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: Makes sense, then he'll be in consideration. 77 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: One five, Yeah, Cooper Cup one seven, one eight was 78 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill, one nine, Nick Chubb. 79 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: I know I'm not gonna get him in the second round, 80 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: so yeah, I would love to have Chubble on this team. 81 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:42,839 Speaker 1: That sounds like I got no chance of it. 82 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: One ten Suon Barkley. One eleven is Stefan Diggs. One 83 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: twelve ceed Lamb. 84 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: Oh a little early for Lamb. 85 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: Two to one was aj Brown, a Mon Ross, Saint Brown, 86 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: Tony Pollard, Derrick, Henry Patrick Mahomes. Happy to see Mahomes go, 87 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: Davonte Adams, Garrett Wilson. 88 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: I kind of thought Wilson might be my pick here. 89 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: So the top suggestions for you. Jonathan Taylor, who again 90 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: has left Colts Camp. Yeah, I guess he came back 91 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: for a bah. I didn't hear that, Okay, Josh Jacobs, 92 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: who's also also not there, not there, Jalen Wattle, Chris 93 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: A Lave? Do you I mean this is a side note, 94 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: if Jacobs and Taylor were clean right now, no questions. 95 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: You know exactly what's going on? Are they like one, one, 96 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: two turn? 97 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: Yeah? 98 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: I mean they're gone? Yeah, Okay, I agree. 99 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 2: So you're getting a bargain price here if you trust it. 100 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: Who were the receivers? 101 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 2: Waddle and a Lave are the top two here on 102 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: the suggestion thing. So your Lave, Waddle, t Higgins, Deavonte Smith. 103 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: And you could take any quarterback besides Mahomes or Andrews. 104 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: I'm not willing to do either one of those. 105 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: Yes, And your top running backs available Taylor, Taylor, Jacobs, 106 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: Romandre Stevenson, nauj. 107 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: Harris, who you like? I'm kind of leaning towards the Lave. 108 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: I was gonna say the same thing, and there's a reason 109 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 2: behind that. So if I look at the group here 110 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,679 Speaker 2: that the four guys that are being suggested here Waddle, 111 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: A Lave, Higgins, and DeVante Smith. Three of those guys 112 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: are number twos on their own team. 113 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: A LaVey is not He's not. Yeah, I'm a little 114 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: worried about investing in Dolphins at the moment too, with 115 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: left tackle going down and what if two goes down next? 116 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, I think a lave is a pick. Okay, 117 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with that. 118 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So Chris alave is your number one receiver. 119 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm cool with that. Okay. 120 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: Now we're back up here at three five. Two of 121 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: those receivers are still available, t Higgins and Deavante Smith, 122 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: along with DK Metcalf and Maury Cooper. 123 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: The running back Live with the top two. 124 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: Joe Mixon, Travis ATN, Jim Where Gibbs, Bryce Hall. 125 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: Yuck, you're real, yuck, real yuck. I don't like this 126 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: third round at all. 127 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 2: Let's see here the top six questions for you, Davonte Smith, 128 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: Mark Andrews, Joe Mixon, Travis ATN. 129 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Is this Andrews worthy? Maybe? I mean I'm gonna takehim 130 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: a second round. 131 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: You could wait around and take Hawkinson if there was 132 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: somebody else there that you that you really liked. 133 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: Who's the best quarterback? Is Allen there? Did he go? Lamar? Yeah? 134 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: I know this is everyone listens I know knows that 135 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: I'm real into Lamar this year, but I for picking five. 136 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: You either gotta take him here. You're not gonna take 137 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: them a second round. You'renoking him the fourth like this 138 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: is your only opportunity to take Lamar and I'm gonna 139 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: have to come to grips. Am I willing to do 140 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: that at three five or not? Who would you go with? 141 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: I tend to think i'd take Lamar over Andrews if 142 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: we're doing that route. I think DeVante Smith's attractive. Yeah, 143 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't think we've picked them once in our box. 144 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: Though we haven't doesn't mean he's bad. 145 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: I think I think that Andrews and Hawkinson are really close. 146 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 2: Like I don't like I'm looking the other one. I'm 147 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: looking here at the projected points between the difference between 148 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 2: the two. Last year, Hawkinson had won sixty eight and 149 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 2: Andrews scored one to fifty two. And they're projecting some 150 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: for some reason, that Andrews's going to score one sixty 151 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,239 Speaker 2: six this year and Hawkinson's going to see a step 152 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: backwards at one fifty seven. I don't see Hawkinson taking 153 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: a step backwards because there's Lion games for him more 154 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: than right, Like there were games where he just didn't 155 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: catch many. 156 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: Right, I mean, he'd have seventeen games once he went 157 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: to Minnesota. He was like, he's getting ten targets a game. 158 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: I'm not taking a tight end here. Okay. I think 159 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: that's the conclusion. We'll see what's out there round four. 160 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: But I don't think the tight ends. 161 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: And so I think it comes down I just want 162 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 2: to see what other backs are available, maybe some. 163 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: I don't like those back I don't like Atn. I 164 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: didn't like Haul this early. Man. I don't think i'd 165 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: take Cook. I definitely wouldn't take Mixon. They've gotten just 166 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: devastated here. Like it it's too early for Damian Pierce. 167 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: That's the name I was about to throw out, but boy, 168 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: that's a reach. I hope he's there in the fourth round. 169 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: I'd run to the podium. 170 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: I mean, you're looking at I just I just ran 171 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: up a bunch of them here mixing Atn, Gibbs, Briest Hall. 172 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm sort of interested in Gibbs. 173 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,239 Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker, Miles Sanders, JK. Dobbins, Cam Akers, Damian Pierce, 174 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: James Connor. 175 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: If I took Gibbs, I'd have two rookie running backs 176 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: and a second year receiver. Though, you know, like that's 177 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: really young and right, right right, I don't know. I 178 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: think it comes down to me, who do you like 179 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: better out of DeVonta Smith or Lamar Lamar Safe? Yeah, 180 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: I think that's a good approach. Su Safer, I mean 181 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: a quarterback safe in general. Let's do it, okay. I 182 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: mean when you're in a Yesterday, we talked about some 183 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: dues and don'ts and fantasies, and I think when you're 184 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: in a round like this, it just doesn't really go 185 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: your way. Take the best player safest, especially this early. Yeah, 186 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: you can pivot whatever wherever you need to pivot. After that, 187 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: let's we'll take an extra receiver. We'll take an extra 188 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: back late. 189 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: You know, Oh man, the running backs are getting just 190 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 2: crushed to pick that. 191 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I assume Pierce is gone. 192 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: We're looking at Alexander Madison, Cam Akers, James Connor, Rashad White, 193 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 2: Alvin Kamara, David Montgomery. 194 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 1: I'm not taking any of those guys here, Javonte Williams, 195 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: James Cook. I never do this approach that a hero 196 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: running back, but I might wait to suck five or 197 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: six of them, and then eighth through tenth round, you know. 198 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 2: Looking at the receivers, Amari Cooper, Keenan Allen, Calvin, Ridley, Deebo, Samuel. 199 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: I think I'd take Ridley, I would teall I looked 200 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: Ridley there. Ridley is my favorite name so far. How 201 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: about a tight end. 202 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 2: George Kittle, Darren Waller, Kyle Pitts, Dallas Goddard. 203 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: So hard one of them will be there around the 204 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: corner though, you would think, yeah, good luck. I mean 205 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: I would have a hard time building a team going 206 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: quarterback tight end in round three and four. Yeah, I mean, 207 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: you're just gonna be so bad everywhere else. I think 208 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: Ridley is a pick. Okay, Ridley, it is riddle me this. 209 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: I'm pretty happy about that. They don't have d me 210 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: a this. Yeah, come on, that's easy. Yeah, that's an 211 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: easy one. 212 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: Okay, back up here now at five to five, the 213 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: top receiver is still available, Jerry, Judy, Terry mcwell, you 214 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 2: don't need I got. 215 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: I mean, my flex is not going to be a 216 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: running back. I already know that. Yeah, the way you get. 217 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: Judy McLaurin, Watson, Christian Watson, Chris Godwin is my favorite 218 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 2: of those Okay, so the running backs didn't. 219 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: Get hit good. 220 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 2: Everybody must be filled up with running backs. So it's 221 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: Cam Akers, James Connor, Alvin Kamar, Rashad White. 222 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: I hate that neighborhood, David. 223 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 2: Montgomery, Javonte Williams, James Cook, Isaiah Pacheco, DeAndre Swift. 224 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: How about the tight ends? Dalvin Cook, Dalvin Dalvin Cook. 225 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: Do you take Dalvin over Kamara mccauar is out for 226 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: three weeks? Yeah, I mean that's I think the healthy 227 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: portion of your season. All right, Dalvin Vers, McLaurin verse 228 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: best tight end Darren Waller or Kyle Pitts. I like 229 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: Pitt's better. Okay, which one would you with? Otherose, Dalvin McLaurin, Pitts, 230 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: Dalvin Okay, I mean the backs a pick from the 231 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: next round are going to be dreadful. Yeah, I think 232 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: it's gona be awful, you know. I mean, Dalvin Cook 233 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: might not even be there at that point. No, I 234 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: would bet not. 235 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 2: And then the next thing, you know, you're taking James 236 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: Cook is your number two. 237 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: Back, And that's that's say, actually your name I was. 238 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: If I didn't go running back here, I would consider 239 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: a round from now you may take both of them. 240 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: That's good synergy for that. That's Steers Steelers Nation Radio. 241 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: You take it, brother, that's what you do, all right. 242 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: So you're back up here. 243 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 2: So you now have two wide receivers, two running backs, 244 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: a quarterback. You don't have a tight end yet. You 245 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 2: don't have your flex yet. 246 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: Is Pittser, Waller or Goddard one of those available? Uh? 247 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: Pitts is gone, but Waller is there. Goddard's there, Evan 248 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: Ingram there, Pat Friarmi is there. 249 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: Goddard or Waller has a strong chance to be this pick. 250 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: I like Waller better, fewer mouse to feed, and he 251 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 2: keeps he might be the true number one receiver there. 252 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: Oh I agree, Yeah, yeah, I have him overgot it. 253 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: Who's the best receiver in backs? Wide receiver? You're looking 254 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 1: at Godwin Ayuk, Mike Williams, Christian Kirk. They're all kind 255 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: of the same. 256 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 2: And I think he can't take Kirk because you've already. 257 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: Ridley, right right, we took rid How about backs? 258 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 2: I just want to see here, Deontay Johnson's still there. 259 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 1: No, that's not bad him or Ayuk. I wouldn't mind 260 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 1: here or even around from now. 261 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, the backs. You're again looking at David Montgomery, Ovin Kamara, 262 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 2: James Cook, Khalil. 263 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: Herbert Kamara is interesting in this situation. Yeah, I mean 264 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: it's a flex and I could put a receiver in 265 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: there until he's ready. What do you think Kamara, Deontae 266 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: or Waller? I think I'd vote Waller. I think Waller. Yeah, 267 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: I think Waller. He could he could have some league 268 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: winner feel to him if he hits. 269 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's gonna be some weeks where he at least 270 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: gets you. I'm not gonna say Kittle like production. 271 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: He might catch ten balls twice this year. They'll be game. 272 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, there'll be games where he gets you Hawkins and 273 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: Andrews in that neighborhood. 274 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm happy with Waller there. Okay, now we just 275 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: pound backs and receivers. 276 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: All right, you're back up here again. We won't look 277 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: at tight ends for a while now. Wide receiver Brandon Ayuk, 278 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: Mike Williams, Christian Kirk, Deontay Johnson. 279 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: Is Deonta your favorite out of those? Take Kirk out 280 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: of the equation, but similar, they're similar. 281 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 2: I mean, Deontay's gonna catch more passes than those other 282 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 2: two guys. 283 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: James Cook the. 284 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 2: Top back available, followed by Kelley O, Herbert, AJ Dillon, 285 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 2: Antonio Gibson. 286 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: Cook Brothers or Deontay. I would probably it's harder to 287 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: find right back, but I would probably say James Cook, 288 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: let's do it. We're Herbert or Herbert. Sure sounds like 289 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: Cook is the one. Yeah, I don't think he's just 290 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: they both are gonna get pillaged by quarterback touchdown touchdowns. 291 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 2: You're hoping for. You're hoping Cook catches fifty. 292 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: That's I think you guys got a better chance to 293 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: out catch Herbert. 294 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you look at him, you really look for 295 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 2: like one hundred and fifty carries and fifty you want 296 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 2: two hundred touches out of James Cook this year. 297 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 1: I mean the brother synergy to is strong. I mean 298 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: that's a really good vibe there. Yeah, you're calling your 299 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: team home cooking cookie monster or something. 300 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: Right, all right, James Cooking is in round seven. 301 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: I like it. All right? So you get three a 302 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: lean towards receiver here. 303 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, Now, well, I mean you still have Khalil 304 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 2: Herbert is still there. AJ Dillon, smajp r On Jamal Williams. 305 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: I consider Herbert Kamara is gone, I assume. 306 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: H yeah, wide receiver, they got hit hard. Pickens gave 307 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: Davis trailing. Birch's Brandon Cooks. 308 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: Pickens or Cooks would be fine. Yeah, or Herbert. I 309 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: think that's what it comes down to. It's just Hickins, 310 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: Cooks Herbert quarterbacks have been. If you take Herbert here, 311 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: you could probably be done. Yeah, give or take it 312 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: running back. You get for the play. Yeah, they're not ideal, 313 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: but you get for the play. The cook brothers, Herbert 314 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: Pickens or Brandon Cooks, Uh, they might be spots. To me, 315 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: it comes down to Herbert or Pickens. You would not 316 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: go Cooks there. 317 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: Okay, he's maybe in the next round guy that I 318 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 2: would look at. Throwing it upside here. Yeah, I think 319 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 2: both of those guys have upside. 320 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: Herbert's a good player. Yeah. I wish he was in 321 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: a little bit different situation if he were. 322 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, if he were with a different team right now, 323 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: I'd feel better about it. 324 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: I think.

Let's see what's available. 336 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 2: Not running back, p Ryan, Zach Charboney, Jerck McKinnon, Elijah Mitchell. 337 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, none of the none of those options really blow 338 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: my doors up. Who's like top suggested, I'm not taking 339 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: a quarterback. 340 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 2: Jeff Wilson Junior. I don't like any of those guys. 341 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: Raheem Mostered Tyler Algaeer. 342 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: I do have Bijeon. You got bijeon. I bet he's 343 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: their next round, though. Do you think somebody's gonna scarp 344 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: him up? Quarterback is sharbon Ay, it's not bad, It's 345 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: not bad. I mean we're talking about upside. 346 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: Uh Daniel Jones, Gino Smith, Aaron Rodgers, Anthony Richardson at 347 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 2: the quarterback position? Is it too early to jump on? 348 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 2: And I know you're an Anthony Richardson believer. 349 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: He's enticing as could be, But that's too early to 350 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: take my second quarterback tight end. 351 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 2: You're looking at Ingram, Pat Farmouth, David Joku, Dalton Schultz. 352 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: And I'm mary to Waller. Okay, who are we talking about? 353 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: Running sharbon A? How about say Waller's thirty two years old. 354 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: I know, I know missed some time in the last two years. 355 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 1: I just don't feel strong enough about my backs and 356 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: receivers to back up tight ends or quarterbacks yet. 357 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 2: This might be a situation, and we talked about it 358 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 2: yesterday on the show when we talked about the dues 359 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 2: and don'ts I think you want to get your first 360 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 2: round draft picks Handcuff sooner rather than before somebody they 361 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: run the ball before somebody else grabs him. Would you 362 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 2: take him over Charbona though, like in a vacuum, I 363 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 2: would rather have sharbon Ay. So I feel like I'm 364 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 2: taking the lesser player. 365 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: But I'm just. 366 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 2: Looking here at their their rankings. They have Algiers RB 367 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 2: forty six. Charbonnay is our thirty nine, so it's not 368 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 2: that different. 369 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, who's the top receiver again? And this would be 370 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 1: our fifth receiver, right or fourth receiver? 371 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 2: The top suggestion for you is some my JP, Ryan Cortland, Sutton, 372 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 2: Zach Charbonne, Quinton Johnston. 373 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: Mhmm. Do you trust Courtland Sutton. I'm thinking about doing 374 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 1: something crazy here, Okay, I'm thinking about taking Richardson. Okay, 375 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: and keep my fingers crossed at alger is there in 376 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: the next round. 377 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: Okay, you wouldn't do that? Yeah, Okay, Anthony Richardson going upside. Yeah, 378 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 2: and hey, history is. 379 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: It's big, and it's hard to trade quarterbacks, especially in 380 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: this league I'm in. I just think Richardson could be 381 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: a top five quarterback this year. 382 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 2: Okay, running back Algier is still there. You don't eve 383 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 2: want to look at any Yeah? 384 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: Sharbon ay there, Jakobe Myers, Sky Moore, Alan Wizard, Nico Collins, 385 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: Sky and Nico. Yeah, you know my love for sky Moore. 386 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: There's no bounds up to you. I'd say Sky or 387 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: Algier we could take out. 388 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 2: I mean, if you don't take Algier here, you're probably 389 00:18:59,119 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 2: not going to get him. 390 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: That's try true for both of them, probably true for 391 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 1: at this stage of the game, Sky would be our 392 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth receiver. Well, let me show you Pickens. 393 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: Uh, you got a lave Ridley Pickens is what you have, 394 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 2: and James Cook is your flex right now, so you 395 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 2: have three receivers. 396 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: I'm not married to handcuff world. Sky could be big. 397 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: Sky could be huge. I say, Sky, I think you're 398 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: leaning that way too, aren't you. I'm digging Sky more 399 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: this year. I'll take the upside in that offense. I 400 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,959 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be their number one receiver. Yeah, that's 401 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: kind of what I mean. 402 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 2: I think that's I think he might catch eighty. 403 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: Five passes in you and I mean it's not gonna 404 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: be like Tyreek, no, you know. 405 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: I mean if he catches, he could catch eighty five passes. 406 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: It might be for nine hundred and fifty yards or 407 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: something like that. 408 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 2: But they score touchdowns, right, yeah, I mean they're gonna 409 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 2: use them with the goal lines things like that. They 410 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: like to toss those one yard touchdown passes. 411 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: Is your fourth receiver? That's fine, all right, Sky Moore? 412 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: It is maybe out here's there at the turn. I 413 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: might be done at running back because they might. 414 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,400 Speaker 2: Just it just went. 415 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: So are you done? 416 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 4: Then? 417 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: At wide receiver? You got four? I'd consider a backup 418 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: tight end at this point. Okay, let's see what farmth 419 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: is there. That's enticing, as is nadjoku On and Tyler Higbee, 420 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: one of whom will be there in the next running back. 421 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 2: You're looking at Jeff Wilson Junior, Devin Singletary, Kenneth Gamewell, 422 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 2: and Raheem Mostert. 423 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,360 Speaker 1: I don't like any of those guys. Okay, gain Well, 424 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: maybe he's another receiver. Uh, Tank Pigsby is there as well. 425 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: I think I'm taking Tanks Bigsby, Okay, I think he's 426 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: way too underrated. I think he might be their leading rusher. 427 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: You want bigb yeah, okay, consider Mouth around the corner though, 428 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: or even the Joku or chig. 429 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 2: I'll get you the fourth. That's that fourth running back. 430 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: Now, okay, so we have four backs, four. 431 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 2: Receivers, so now you can pretty much do whatever you 432 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: need to do. You get two quarterbacks. You don't have 433 00:20:58,680 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 2: a tight end. 434 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: That's second tight end. Chick is the top guy available. 435 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. How about receivers or backs? I 436 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: bet the backs are receivers. You're looking at Darnell Mooney. 437 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: We're on Del Moore, Romeo Dobbs, Adam Thielen. To me, 438 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: maybe Rondell Moore might be the Yeah, it is half 439 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: PPR A lot right, Ronn. It can't be any backs 440 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: of no. 441 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 2: Tom Kenneth game, while Rashawn Johnson, Gus Edwards schoob behover. 442 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, yuck, chig. 443 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 2: You want to get chiggy with it? 444 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: M hmm. Okay, I had planned on not using picks 445 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: this early on backup running backs and tight ends. But 446 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: the backup quarterbacks and tight ends the way it goes. 447 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: If that's the best guy on the board's best guy 448 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: on the board. 449 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 2: Okay, So now you're thirteen five, Let's see what the 450 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: top suggestion is for you. It's Romeo Dobbs, Zamir White, 451 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 2: Cordero Patterson, or the Cowboys defense. 452 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 1: Yeah cool, yuck, yuck. It has to be a running 453 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: back or receiver. I'm not taking a defensive side. 454 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: The top receivers, Bill Well, Darnell Mooney, We're on del Moore, Romeo. 455 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: Dobbs says, owns Rondell. 456 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 2: Let's look at their first running backs real quick, Corderio Patterson, 457 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 2: Zamir White, Tay j. 458 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: Spears, Spears is kind of interesting too, Josh Kelly Spears 459 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: or Rondell Mmm. I think Spears, Yeah, I think he 460 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: plays in Week one and an injury rookie running backs, 461 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: that's okay. I don't want old ones. 462 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: All right, And you did wait to take your second 463 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 2: back a while. 464 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: One is kind of throwing some darts. 465 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's probably not a bad idea. I don't 466 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 2: know that you want to go there again. 467 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: And even Dalvin Cook's a little risky. 468 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 2: Right right, there's he could be a fifty to fifty split. 469 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: We'ren't around fourteen now coming rounds total fifteen fifteen, yes, okay, 470 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: so you. 471 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 2: Still need a defense. You get the Chiefs, Saints, Steelers, Dolphins. 472 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm fading on the Dolphins quickly. Yeah, the whole team, 473 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: Steelers my favorite of those. Okay, might just do that. 474 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 2: If you want to wait. The top suggestions for you, 475 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: the Chiefs, the Saints, the Steelers, the Dolphins. They're saying 476 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: to take a defense here. 477 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 1: Done. 478 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: Oh that was the last. 479 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: That was it? That was it? 480 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 2: Okay, didn't like it at all. 481 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: You gotta c minus seventy out of the worst draft. 482 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: That's right, that's promising for my ear. 483 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 2: You ended up with Lamar Jackson a quarterback, but Jean 484 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 2: Robinson and Dalvin Cook is your two running backs. 485 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: Uh, wide receivers Chris. 486 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,879 Speaker 2: Slave, Calvin Ridley tight end, Darren Waller. Your flex is 487 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 2: James Cook, your defense the Steelers. Then you have on 488 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: the bench George Pickens, Anthony Richardson, sky Moore, Tank, Bigsby, 489 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 2: Chicken Kwon Quo, ty J. 490 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,719 Speaker 1: Spears. I'm okay with it. I think it's better than 491 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: the CE minus. 492 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 2: The only question I would have would be, you've got Lamar, 493 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook, uh Waller. Who are all guys who've missed hard? Yeah, 494 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 2: I missed some time with injuries in recent years. 495 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: Lamar's backed up strong, Chiggs, okay, back up an average backup. 496 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: You're not gonna gonna replicate that. 497 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: I don't love my flex situation. 498 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you might be starting sky Moore there 499 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 2: in week one, or Tank Big. 500 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: Even like a Bigsby or Pickens. There's you know yeah, yeah, yeah, 501 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: kind of hoping for touchdowns. 502 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 503 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 1: A lot of youth, A lot of youth. 504 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 2: That's a very young I mean, you got a rookie 505 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 2: running back, you got one rookie running back, two rookie 506 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: with three rookie running. 507 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: Backs on that team. I don't problem with that. Yeah, 508 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: and Melvin Cook and Spears and a Lava or second 509 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: year guys, right, Scotty Chiggs the second year guys, guys, Yeah, yeah, 510 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 1: call that when the young uns. That's my first go 511 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: round from some number five. It's okay. I wonder if 512 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,439 Speaker 1: I didn't do to them, if we didn't go Lamar 513 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: the third round, obviously, that would be a drastically different 514 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: build if that's a running back pick after with DeVante Smith, 515 00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 1: Mark Andrews T. 516 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 2: Higgins mixing at and Damian Pierce went in that round 517 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 2: even though he wasn't ranked that high. 518 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: So Davante Smith was the one that I was really 519 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: torn on. 520 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Joe Burrow went in that round as well. 521 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I'd much I have of Lamar than Burrow. Yeah, okay, 522 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 1: I can live with it. 523 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 2: That was Matt's picking fifth in his his home draft. 524 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. I hope no one's listening, Yeah, they probably as Anyways, 525 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break. 526 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,360 Speaker 2: He is Matt Williams and I am Dale Lolley.

Just a little bit ago. Earlier today, 543 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin had his press conference and lead the lead 544 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 2: up to the game against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday, 545 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 2: and I wanted to play that back to you. Ye, 546 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 2: we'll hear what he said and then some it all up, 547 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: some it all up here in sum up training camp. 548 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 2: So let's hear from Mike Tomlin. 549 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, and we're excited about leaning in on our 550 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 3: second preseason opportunity. A couple of reasons why. First, it's 551 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: a home game weekend. We're always excited about familiarizing ourselves 552 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 3: with Akashure and and some of the good things and 553 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 3: some of the challenges that come along with it. One 554 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 3: of the challenges is defensive communication. Our home game venue 555 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 3: is a is an asset to us in that regard, 556 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 3: but it does present some challenges from a defense. It's 557 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: a communication perspective, and so that's one of our little agendas, 558 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 3: if you will, in preparation for this game, making sure 559 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 3: that we respect that component. We get one opportunity in 560 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 3: the preseason to play at home, and so defensive communication 561 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 3: in the midst of that is going to be big 562 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 3: for us. Also, just familiarizing ourselves with the itinerary on 563 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 3: the home game schedule, hotel things of that nature. Dealing 564 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 3: with traffic. There's a lot of new stealers, and so 565 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 3: we don't take any of those things for granted. We 566 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 3: need that exposure. It'd be interesting to watch the group 567 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 3: push through it and how they remain focused on what's 568 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 3: really important, ultimately their play in the midst of all 569 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: of that. Man, it's a reasonable opportunity to expect us 570 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 3: to be better in all areas because of last week's exposure. 571 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 3: Not only last week's exposure, but last week's film study 572 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,479 Speaker 3: and then adjustments in terms of what we focused on 573 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 3: this week in practice. Some things that we need to 574 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 3: do better individually and collectively will highlight our agenda and 575 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 3: enough to allow these guys to show what they're capable 576 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 3: of and their ability to get better in designated areas 577 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 3: and improve. Just like last week, man, as I sit 578 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 3: here today, we expect to play all healthy players. Three 579 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 3: guys that that that that are probably not gonna play 580 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 3: just based on their level of health as we sit 581 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 3: here right now, as Larry Ogan, Jobi Trey Norwood, although 582 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 3: he has been practicing in a partial capacity, will probably 583 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 3: wait till next week on him, and Nate Herbert has 584 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 3: missed a few days and it's probably not appropriate to 585 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 3: put him in uniform. I am excited about seeing some 586 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 3: guys play this year for the first time, Guys that 587 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 3: we held out last week, Guys like Cam and TJ 588 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 3: and Maker and Pat p, Joey Porter, Junior, Kean O'Neil 589 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 3: kaz are some guys who who didn't play last week 590 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 3: who are scheduled to play and and looking for or 591 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 3: to watching those guys, particularly the guys that are new 592 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 3: to the NFL like Joey or new to us. UH, 593 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 3: like Keano and Pat, I'm really excited about seeing the 594 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 3: specialist work. You know, last week we played the younger 595 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 3: new specialists. This week we're playing the guys who have 596 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 3: Steeler experience. Looking forward to watch them, watching those guys execute, 597 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 3: specifically in the return game. UH, really interested in Anthony 598 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 3: McFarland is a kick returner and Calvin Austin is a 599 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 3: punk returner. We focused their efforts last week man on 600 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 3: their office of contributions, particularly in the first half of 601 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 3: the game. We're really gonna be interested in their special 602 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 3: teams contributions those two in particular, UH, this week, along 603 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 3: with obviously their their offensive responsibility. But looking for those 604 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 3: guys to show their capabilities in that space if given 605 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 3: an opportunity. UH. Those are just some of the reasons 606 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 3: why we're excited. Obviously, we're doing a little bit more 607 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 3: game planning. UH. Last week, we we had one day 608 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 3: of prep in preparation for play. This week, we'll have 609 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 3: two days, and so it's reasonable to expect the guys 610 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 3: to display more understanding relative to this week's challenge, to 611 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 3: play with more fluidity, for us to do a few 612 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 3: more things schematically. Because of that additional day, and so 613 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 3: all of those things I'm excited about seeing from the 614 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 3: group out pause and open it up for questions. 615 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 1: Mike got here, he said, you better be open to 616 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: being pleasantly surprised in this environment. 617 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 3: For you, you know, our supplies on a lot of 618 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 3: levels positively, but you know, I'm open to it, and 619 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 3: I think that that's what this process needs to be 620 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 3: about in this environment. Sure we have a hardcore plan, 621 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 3: Sure there's some things that we want to see, but 622 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 3: we better be open to adjustments to give the group 623 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 3: what it is it needs, and we better be open 624 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 3: to being pleasantly surprised or to see the unexpected. We 625 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 3: got ninety guys here trying to take to fifty three, 626 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 3: and so we can't have too many preconceived notions in 627 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,239 Speaker 3: the effort to make sure that this process is a 628 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 3: fair one. 629 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: Mike, someone along those lines. When you got here, you 630 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: talked about that feeling in the air that you had, 631 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: the vibe and how has that manifested itself. A lot 632 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 1: of guys have talked about that repeated. 633 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 3: You know, I just think I just think the the 634 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 3: individuals bring it. We've been talking a lot about not 635 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 3: making things mystical we're responsible for the creation of a 636 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 3: great day individually if we're positive contributors to it, and 637 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 3: so we're trying to take the mystique out of some 638 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 3: of those things. We're not hoping that we're going to 639 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 3: have a great day or hoping that there's going to 640 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 3: be a positive vibe. We're owning our roles in the 641 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 3: creation of it, just like we own our roles in 642 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 3: the creation of victory. We're not rabbits foot type people 643 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 3: when it comes to creating victory. And so that's been 644 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 3: some of the things that's been on the front of 645 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 3: our radar as we've developed as a team in this process. 646 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: Mike, Omar and Andy have discussed the depth that they've 647 00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: been able to add to this roster of you. How 648 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: have you seen that play out here over camp? 649 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not looking at it from a depth 650 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 3: perspective right now. I'm just really interested in giving the 651 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 3: ninety guys that are here an opportunity to show what 652 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 3: they're capable of, and in the midst of that it 653 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 3: will be revealed to us. We respect all ninety We're 654 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: looking forward to them stating the case for themselves, and 655 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 3: obviously we feel good about the ninety that we have 656 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 3: that is highly competitive, and that creates the depth in 657 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 3: which you mentioned. 658 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 4: Mike. I know focusing on the details is a big 659 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 4: thing for you in this team. How have you seen 660 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 4: these guys kind of do that every day and zone 661 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 4: in on getting those details right. 662 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 3: I think it's just a continuous it's a continual process. 663 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 3: We cannot tire. We'll be continually trying to put that 664 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 3: eight pounds in the five pound bag. We like to 665 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 3: say it is details. When it's good on good and 666 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 3: everybody knows what they're doing, it's varsity on varsity. What's 667 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 3: the determining factor for success? Ultimately, Man, it's it's it's 668 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 3: technique relative to the positions that you play, and it's 669 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 3: the detailed understanding of assignments that allows you to play 670 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 3: fast and fluid, light on your feet, communicate in all 671 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 3: of those things. 672 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: And how much longer will you play Kenny in the 673 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: first team offense or. 674 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 3: Will you Well, we'll play it by ear. I acknowledge 675 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 3: that those guys are gonna play. I'll also acknowledge that 676 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 3: they're gonna play more. But what that is as I 677 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 3: stand here right now, I'd be lying. If I gave 678 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 3: you a direct answer I'd. 679 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 4: Want to see from Kenny in this out. 680 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 3: Just like I mentioned at the outset, just like I 681 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 3: talked about the entirety of the group, is reasonable to 682 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 3: expect them to be better in all areas given last 683 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 3: week's experience in stadium experience, the process by which we 684 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 3: go through the te up performance is something that we 685 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: want to capture and master, and so this is the 686 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 3: second time for us to do it, and so it's 687 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 3: reasonable to expect that performance floor to be higher. You 688 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 3: obviously don't have any control over who you can get 689 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 3: to face in the preseason, but excited about the challenge 690 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 3: of your defense getting to face Josh Allen. Like you mentioned, 691 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 3: we don't have control, So whoever shows up and plays well, 692 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 3: we'll face them. That approach you talked about a little 693 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 3: bit ago. 694 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 2: Does that explain why there haven't been any fights or 695 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 2: skirmishes anything we've seen. 696 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 3: You know, we appreciate tough guys, but this is not 697 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 3: an MMA team that we're putting together, and so fights 698 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 3: don't help us win football games. And so we've been 699 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 3: talking very black and white in that manner, and I 700 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 3: appreciate the guy's willingness to make that posture of that 701 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 3: position real by adhering to it. 702 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 1: Mike, what have you seen from Kenny in his first 703 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: campus and starting quarterback? 704 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 3: Man. I just like the way he's communicating with people. 705 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 3: I like the way he comes every day ready to compete. 706 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 3: You know, he's not over analyzing the big picture too much. 707 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 3: He's just trying to, you know, play his role in 708 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 3: the creation of a great day and being there. I 709 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 3: think that I think other people, by virtue of his position, 710 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 3: get their vibe off of that and his ability to 711 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 3: remain singular fo singularly focused and hyper competitive, I think 712 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 3: as an asset to our unit and to our team. 713 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 4: Like we've seen, Cam and TJ have just this kind 714 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 4: of goofy relationship in some ways. How do they push 715 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 4: each other and maybe bring out the best in each 716 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 4: other on and off the field. 717 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,879 Speaker 3: You know, I watch it. Obviously I'm not in their relationship, 718 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 3: but I appreciate it, and I watch it, and I 719 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 3: just think that both guys are teed up comfortably for 720 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 3: their roles in their relationship. Cam is a big brother 721 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 3: in his real life and TJ's a little brother in 722 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 3: his real life, and I just think that they're comfortable 723 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 3: in the ways that they come together on that premise, 724 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 3: and obviously there's mutual respect in TJ's a grown man 725 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 3: and you know, an elite professional, but their dynamics, I 726 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 3: just think it's very comfortable for them because because of 727 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 3: who they are in their personal lives. From a brother perspective, like, 728 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 3: is there any potential long term concern with Ogijob or 729 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 3: herbic coach? 730 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: In this game and even in the next week game 731 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 1: is just the chance for your those fighting for the 732 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: third stream quarterback to show what they show. 733 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 3: And they can do to earn a spot. Man. Everybody's 734 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 3: fighting for everything. I always smile when you guys try 735 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: to identify battles. Man, they're all battles. We're not assuming anything. 736 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 3: I respect every man here and what they're pursuing. And 737 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 3: so that's just one of the many opportunities that's being 738 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 3: sorted out through this process. 739 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,840 Speaker 2: You guys have touched some rain drops and things of 740 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,919 Speaker 2: that nature out here. Can talk a little bit about 741 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: what your field crew. 742 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 3: Means to this cooping company. Have done an awesome job 743 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 3: first presenting some quality feels for us, but also working 744 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,840 Speaker 3: hard to maintenance them and keeping them upright as we 745 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 3: tear them down. I can't say enough about the service 746 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 3: that they've provided. And there have been some challenges, particularly 747 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 3: early on we had some rain days and so forth, 748 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 3: we had to put together a tart crew man. We 749 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 3: just respect all the roles departmentally that that that that 750 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 3: make this thing go, and that field group is significant. 751 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: Right. 752 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 4: What have you seen and or like about Nick herb 753 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 4: big As You've been everything that you thought when you. 754 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 3: Picked he has obviously, you know, we like doing business 755 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 3: with Wisconsin Man just thematically the things that they were 756 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 3: doing defensively under their former coordinator, Jim Leonard, with things 757 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 3: that were very similar to what it is that we do. 758 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 3: And so there's less speculation there in terms of your 759 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 3: your vision of what he might be capable of doing. 760 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 3: It's the same thing that made us comfortable when we 761 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 3: drafted TJ and louder Milk and Benton, and so there's 762 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 3: very little speculations schematically, there's a lot of carry over 763 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 3: and so I can't tell you that I'm overly shocked 764 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:52,839 Speaker 3: at what we're seeing from him is very much in 765 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,479 Speaker 3: line with what we saw on Wisconsin video. 766 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: Mike, what did you see from the tape with Broderick 767 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: Jones from the game on Friday, and how much pushing down. 768 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 3: I thought he did a really nice job for a 769 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 3: first time out. I thought he played with energy. I 770 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 3: thought he played with finish. And oftentimes when the guy's 771 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 3: in his first opportunity and he's worried about assignment, some 772 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,919 Speaker 3: of those things are lost. And so it's really good 773 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 3: to see him play with physicality and finish. And it's 774 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 3: reasonable to expect him to take a significant jump this 775 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 3: week and into the next and what happens over the 776 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 3: course of the next two weeks. Probably we're determined that 777 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:26,760 Speaker 3: that component of the discussion. 778 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 1: That you mentioned no coincidence. He played more than any 779 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 1: offensive player. 780 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,879 Speaker 3: I'm surprised by that. I'm surprised by that. 781 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: The way you've been able to use your inside linebackers, 782 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 2: that can be kind of flexibility and some mixing and 783 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 2: matching the things you want. 784 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 3: It's just really a component of today's game. Man. We 785 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 3: got some varsity inside linebackers and of varying skill sets, 786 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 3: and and so man, we're we're just excited about, you know, 787 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 3: dividing the labor up on a weekend and week out 788 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 3: basis to highlight that skill set and position ourselves to 789 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 3: play really good defense. Got respect for for the contributions 790 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 3: of all of those guys that have been working in 791 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 3: that group, and Ac has been doing an awesome job 792 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 3: of coaching them. 793 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: And Nargie Harris had a Liz Frank injury here last year. 794 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 3: Have you done anything differently about the way you approach 795 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 3: his workload or what you're doing for him. This is 796 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 3: not in response to that injury that you mentioned. It's 797 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 3: just about the maturation of him as a professional and 798 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,479 Speaker 3: giving him what he needs. We don't live in fear 799 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 3: regarding injury or injury history. 800 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 4: What did you feel that he needed during camp this 801 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 4: year as compared to his first couple of years of. 802 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 3: Camp less physical reps required? The older he gets, and 803 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:38,439 Speaker 3: that's nothing groundbreaking, the earth shattering about that, anyone else? 804 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 1: All right? 805 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 3: Thanks? 806 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 2: Ad Coach Mike Tomlin earlier today with the assembled media 807 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 2: talking about the game with the Buffalo Bills. We're gonna 808 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 2: take a break. We'll come back and talk about that 809 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 2: and finish up the show. He is Matt Williamson. I 810 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 2: am Dale, Lallie. You're listening to the Drive here on 811 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: Steelers Nation Radio and ESPN nine seventy.

Uh, 818 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 2: We're gonna take a break. We'll be back with more 819 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: right after this. 820 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: Welcome back on Dale, Lollie. 821 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 2: He is Matt Williamson and Matt, we just heard from 822 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 2: Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin talking about the game on 823 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 2: Saturday against the Buffalo Bills. 824 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: That would be the Steelers. 825 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 2: Only preseason game at home, uh this preseason, and he 826 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 2: mentioned that, well, this is a good opportunity for the 827 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 2: defense to work on communication because when you're at home, 828 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: presumably the fans are loud when the defense is on 829 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 2: the field. When you're on the road, it's usually when 830 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 2: the offense is on the field. Although with Steeler fans 831 00:40:54,239 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 2: that sometimes. 832 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: I guess that's a good point. You always think about, Boy, 833 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 1: it's easy for the offense at home they can communicate well, 834 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: but it isn't easy for the defense. 835 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 3: Right. 836 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 1: This is a good offense that they're going to be gun. Yeah, right, right, No, 837 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 1: this is a great test for him. I mean, anytime 838 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: Allen's on the field, I mean, look out, that's a stiff, 839 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: stiff test. So I expect there'll be a lot of 840 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: crowd there too. Yeah, I think so as well. 841 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 2: And he also made mention, and we've talked about this, 842 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 2: that you know, most of your change or turnover on 843 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 2: this roster. There's a bunch of new guys on this roster, 844 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 2: but largely it's on that defensive. 845 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: Side of the ball. And in terms of the guys 846 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: who are going to be playing a lot like Kawant, 847 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: Alexander is a perfect example, you know, like he's really 848 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: exciting out here. They may have a find, but what 849 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 1: if he's not doing his assignments right in the games 850 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 1: or you know. 851 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 2: I know, so the last the last preseason game down 852 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: in Tampa, they used Alexander and Landon Roberts as their 853 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 2: green dot guys. 854 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: Oh I didn't know that. Yeah, I thought it was 855 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: just hold them. No, it was they used the preseason. 856 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 1: You have to have multiple guys. So you know they're 857 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: looking at Kwant, Alexander's being their dime linebacker. 858 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 2: He's going to be out there a lot so alone. Yeah, 859 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 2: alone at times. And so you know, you look at 860 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 2: that defense. You know, Patrick Peterson is a new guy, 861 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 2: Joey Porter Junior a new guy. Both inside are all 862 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 2: three inside linebackers new guys. 863 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: So not to mention the rookies that the Betons of 864 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 1: the world. 865 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 2: That communication has to go through those guys. So that's 866 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: a big part of this game, I think for the Steelers. 867 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's an interesting aspect of it, and I think 868 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: that's smart to do it in a stadium against the 869 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: quality opponent while trying to cover Stefan Diggs and deal 870 00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: with Josh Allen. Right, So that's that's a big part 871 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: of this. 872 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 2: You heard Mike Tomlans saying that, you know, there's only 873 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 2: three guys that really aren't going to play, that being 874 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 2: Nate her Big, Larry Ogan Trobe, and then Trey Norwood. 875 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 2: Everybody else is kind of in line to play at 876 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 2: least a little bit. We're assuming, you know, nobody he 877 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 2: doesn't talk after after today's practice. We assume nobody got 878 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 2: hurt today. 879 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 1: I didn't notice anyone, and it was sort of a 880 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: lighter practice. But hopefully that's just three. 881 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, So and he also made notes that well, we're 882 00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 2: gonna we're gonna do two days of preparation for this 883 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,600 Speaker 2: preseason game, today being the first day of that. We 884 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 2: saw that during this practice here, in the final practice 885 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 2: here at Saint Penci College, they'll have the walkthrough which 886 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 2: will be again dedicated to preparing to play the Bills 887 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 2: and then you go into a real game. So this 888 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: was more of like a a full week yeah thing, 889 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 2: but it's like it was more like they played on 890 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 2: Sunday and here's what you got to get ready for 891 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 2: a game on Thursday. 892 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: And there are some you know, a lot of new 893 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: guys and the rookies, and this is how you start 894 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: to prepare for regular season action.
