That room being at Chris Westling's 6 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 2: podcast studio. 7 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 3: But Mark, yeah, it's uh, you know, it's it's always 8 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 3: tough not to have Dan with us, but it's like, 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 3: I think the toughest part is again I get put 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 3: in this seat where I'm like, my body feels awkward. 11 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,240 Speaker 3: I don't know what to do, but I'm. 12 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:38,639 Speaker 1: Body looks good. Your body looks good. 13 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 2: All of our bodies, considering we're getting older, is looking good. 14 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: I can say the same about our guests, and it's rare. 15 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: We just go right into it. But this is an 16 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 2: important man at our company. He's so important. Actually, he 17 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 2: insisted that Dan and him not do the show together, 18 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 2: and I thought, we thought, like, that's that's like a 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: lot to ask, that's kind of diva behavior. But he's 20 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: that important at draft time that we're gonna welcome in 21 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,119 Speaker 2: Daniel Jeremiah move the sticks. 22 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: Thank you Daniel for joining us. 23 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 4: Well, first of all, this is Jariffolo Colin call him 24 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 4: back later. Two things. Number one. I had two conditions 25 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 4: for me to come on this show. One, Dan's not there, 26 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 4: that's a given, right he's there, I'm out. That's done. 27 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 28 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 4: The other condition was, I said, here's the thing, I'll 29 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 4: do it. First of all, I love Sessler, so I'm 30 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 4: happy to do it for Cessler if I'm gonna If 31 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 4: I'm gonna work with Greg, though, I need him to 32 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 4: dress up like Fonzie. If he dresses like Phonsie. 33 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: It's funny, then I'll come on. 34 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: I just like kind of took off my jacket was 35 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: a little hot in here, and I thought, what are 36 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: the odds that Jeremiah doesn't mention this almost right away? 37 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: So you've made me self conscious? And this is why 38 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 2: we're getting such big numbers on YouTube. 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: Is action like this? You can actually watch me now, says. 40 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: Anybody watching you even know who FANSI. 41 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 3: Is not at this point, not at this point. And 42 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 3: I feel like I've escaped your eyre for a decade plus. 43 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 3: And I appreciate that it feels sincere. But you have 44 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 3: incredible power to remove Dan from the seat and also 45 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: alter Greg's wardrobe. That these things are not easily done. 46 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just lost money on the fact that that's 47 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 4: not a leather jacket that he draped over his white shirt, 48 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: So I lost that bet. 49 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: It's d Day's time of year. 50 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure you're thrilled because we're taping this Thursday, exactly 51 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 2: one week away from the NFL Draft. It's a long 52 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: process here for Jeremi. I mean no, no, it's crying 53 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 2: for you here. But you switched straight from the Chargers 54 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: into cranking these players out, and now you're only one 55 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: week away. What do you what is your post draft plan? 56 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 2: You have to work for one more week and then 57 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: what happened. 58 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 4: I've shortened it down. I used to the draft would 59 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 4: end and then literally would work the next day and 60 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 4: work that entire week. We would do Path to the Draft, 61 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 4: very ironically named after the draft for a week for 62 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 4: a week afterwards, and then over the years that got 63 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: shortened till okay, just you can just work till Thursday. 64 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 4: We'll give you that Friday off and then you're free 65 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 4: to the point now where I only have to do 66 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 4: that first day, So I think I do the Monday 67 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 4: show and then that's it, so I get a little 68 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 4: bit of a break, but it's kind of weird, and 69 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 4: you guys know with kids, like I still have two 70 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 4: in the house and then they you know, they're still 71 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 4: in school. So everybody's like, oh, do you go on vacation? 72 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 4: What do you do after? I'm like nothing, I'm just 73 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 4: sitting at home, like looking at baseball box scores and 74 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 4: trying to figure out if I'm gonna run on the 75 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 4: treadmill or ride the bike. Like that's that's the that's 76 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 4: what's going on. 77 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 3: I think what you should tell us at least cook 78 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: up some sort of misadventure that makes us think. You know, 79 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: Daniel jeremis at the forefront of a Personal Experience post. 80 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 2: He's listening to eighties R and B. He's watching the 81 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: padres nothing that could make him happier. I'm going to 82 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 2: start my questions here, DJ by putting you in the 83 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: minds of all thirty two gms. So this is a 84 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: world where you're actually running every team, but you can't 85 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: make trades because you'd be trading with yourself. This is 86 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 2: it's a scary world to think about. But if you 87 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: were the GM of every team, who is the first 88 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 2: team you would take brock Bauers for because the closer 89 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: we get to this draft, like the more I'm just 90 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: fascinated by him as a player and his discussion and 91 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 2: value and all that. Like, which is the first team 92 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: if it was your team? And we know ya look, yeah, 93 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 2: some of these teams, you know, they they sprinkle around interest. 94 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: Maybe someday when the kids are older, DJ Willy will 95 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: be working for a team. 96 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: Which team are you taking Bowers with? 97 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,559 Speaker 4: This is gonna mean, this is saying this as somebody 98 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 4: who hasn't rated very highly, like maybe seven or eight. 99 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 4: I think on my list somewhere around there. The first 100 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 4: team where I would personally take him with my team 101 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 4: would be fifteen with Indian Rose Coults. So and that's 102 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 4: for you know, different reasons. There's not needs for some 103 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 4: of these teams at that position. Then there's teams that 104 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: have you know, you know, golly you've got if you're 105 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 4: if you're picking right before them. The New Orleans Saints 106 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 4: have to take a tackle. Like they've painted themselves into 107 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 4: a corner here. They can't do this penning. They can't 108 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 4: do penning anymore. They can't try that. 109 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 2: I mean they are they're not even trying to do 110 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: it now. They they they'd rather play like their fourth 111 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 2: string tackle than him. 112 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 4: And then ram check is gonna be done. So like 113 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: they have no they have to they have to take 114 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 4: a tackle. So and then you look at you know, 115 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 4: I see the I see the Broncos twice a year. 116 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 4: You know, uh, they they have functional tight ends. They 117 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 4: have other needs. 118 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 3: That they can ye Jets, I thought, so I I to. 119 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 4: Me, with the Jets, I go, I go a couple 120 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: different ways. I to me, Romaduonday is a home run pick. 121 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 4: Like I never thought in a million years in that 122 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 4: draft that Garrett Wilson would get to them with their 123 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 4: second pick. I thought it was going to be a decision. 124 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 4: And I had them touching each other on my list, 125 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 4: which was Sauce Gardner, Garrett Wilson, can't go wrong. You're 126 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 4: gonna get one, no way you get both. And then 127 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 4: somehow it happened with Garrett Wilson following a lap. So 128 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 4: I won't rule it out that somehow, after everything went 129 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 4: against them last year in terms of good fortune, that 130 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 4: maybe they get that good fortune that they had that draft, 131 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 4: and somehow Roma dunsays there I would take Rome over Bowers. 132 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 4: And then it comes down to, well, if it's Bowers 133 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 4: versus the tackles I've been saying I have and I 134 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 4: would have a higher grade on Bowers than the second 135 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 4: rated tackle, but I you know, and having some conversations 136 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 4: over the last twenty four hours, one of the things 137 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 4: that was brought to my mind was if you don't 138 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 4: look at him as a tackle, like if you look 139 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 4: at Fuaga or Fatanu as guys who can play different 140 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 4: spots for a team that has been so you know, 141 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 4: so hit with injuries. To have them, I think either 142 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 4: one of those guys, in my opinion, at least they 143 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 4: beat out John Simpson right away and they start at guard. 144 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 4: And then if Tyron Smith, some might say, when he 145 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 4: gets hurt, you have one of these guys as it 146 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 4: can you know now he can kick out and play tackle. 147 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 4: So when I stop looking at him strictly as just 148 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 4: a tackle, but saying okay, I can still get him 149 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 4: on the field right now, while also gives me a 150 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: little bit of insurance for these two thirty three year 151 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 4: old tackles. That's why I bypassed Bowers there as the. 152 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 3: Jets interesting, you know, I found it enjoyable and intriguing 153 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: to watch you and Mel Kuiper in you know, headshots 154 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 3: next to each other talking about these picks. I mean, 155 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 3: I grew up Mel Kuiper, we all did, like, so 156 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 3: it was kind of fasting. 157 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 4: So he's the guy. 158 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's just like, I mean, at this point, 159 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: I think people turned him into almost a caricature, and 160 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 3: it's like he's still grinding and doing all this. So 161 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 3: I when I watch only one player, because you guys 162 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 3: brought up Michael Pennox Junior, and I believe you had 163 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 3: him at about thirteen, going around thirteen, and Kuiper has 164 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 3: him all the way down at thirty seven. We had 165 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 3: Chad Rider in here yesterday who had him the Raiders 166 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: trading up for him, but in the second round taking 167 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 3: Carolina's pick. So it's like, this is a quarterback. I 168 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 3: know those the top four, but this guy seems to 169 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 3: be all over the map. Why is there beyond the 170 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 3: injury history? And what is the disparity between you Kuiper 171 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 3: and person X and Y and Z. 172 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 4: So here's the here's the fascinating part about that. And 173 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 4: first of all, I'm glad you brought that up about 174 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 4: Mel because I think you know he's got the voice, 175 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: He's got the hair, he's got the iconic moment, you know, 176 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 4: the flashback, the mailman, the whole, the whole thing, right, 177 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 4: I think people need to put a little bit more 178 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: respect on the work that he does. Like he puts 179 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 4: in a ton of work, and you can't fake it. 180 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 4: It's one thing that I've learned, you know, obviously from 181 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 4: the scouting side, but then to this side of it. 182 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 4: You can't fake it. 183 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 3: Listen, listen to people. 184 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 4: When they're talking about players, and when you hear people 185 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 4: reference when I watched him against Notre Dame, when when 186 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 4: I saw that, Like they're referencing moments of the work 187 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 4: that they've done versus some pluralities and generalities that can 188 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 4: get tossed around that I can pick up a you know, 189 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 4: the stats and look at him and I can give 190 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 4: you that like he the guy works hard. 191 00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 2: He we we do fake it, Daniel, It's fine, but 192 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: the show is doing. 193 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 4: The people won't know. 194 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the whole. 195 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: Like, oh, what is the huge difference between Fashanu Fuaga 196 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: and Fatanu Like we'll get back to you on that 197 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: next time. 198 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,719 Speaker 4: But I did want to make that point about mel 199 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 4: because I love him and he is literally like he 200 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 4: is a sweetheart of a man, like he is such 201 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 4: a nice guy who treats people really really well. So anyways, 202 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 4: outside of that, did Pennix So Mark, I have Penix 203 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 4: as I think my thirty fourth rated player, but I 204 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 4: had him going thirteenth, and I think that confuses people, 205 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 4: and so I try to explain it the best of 206 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 4: the way that I can. There's taking players where you 207 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 4: have him rated, but then there's also like, let's have 208 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 4: some common sense here and this if we're going to 209 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: all agree, is we I'm sure we do. The quarterback 210 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 4: is the most important position on your team and it's 211 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 4: going to be the biggest indicator whether or not you're 212 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: going to be successful or not if you're the Raiders. 213 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 4: I couldn't get by this point of saying, yes, he's 214 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 4: my thirty fourth player. Some of that's injuries, you know, 215 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 4: factoring into that. But I have Gardner Minshew and I 216 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 4: have Aidan O'Connell. Sure is he better than what I 217 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 4: have at the most important position. Yes, he is infinitely 218 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: more talented. Like that's not debatable, it's not even close. 219 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 4: So if I man, I can say, well I have 220 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 4: this player rated that higher, that player rated higher, well, 221 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 4: me upgrading a tackle or me upgrading you know, a corner. 222 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 4: Is that the same as me I can upgrade the 223 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 4: quarterback position here, like, don't you have to consider that? 224 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 4: And that's why I have the thirty fourth player on 225 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 4: my board. Going with the thirteenth pick makes sense. 226 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 2: It does make sense, and you can see. Look, I 227 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: don't think it's crazy to imagine him slipping into the 228 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 2: second or late first. No, no, and then they get in 229 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 2: the mix forum there or they just stick with their 230 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: two picks and they get him in the second. 231 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: We've just seen that very often. 232 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: And if he's the fifth quarterback, let's say, or the sixth, 233 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 2: those guys do fall far farther than people think. I 234 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 2: want to get more to the top quarterbacks because I 235 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: want to ask you. I have my takes, I have 236 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: a theory on this, but I want to hear yours, 237 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 2: yours first, because I know how you like to steal 238 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 2: my takes. 239 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 3: Dade topping here, DJ, I'm so, I'm so sorry. 240 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 4: No, I know, Mark, Look you your place is secure 241 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 4: on my on my board. Okay, you don't need to 242 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 4: even chime in on that. 243 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: Jayde and Daniels or Drake may just which evaluation is harder. 244 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 4: That's a good point. They're they're they're they're equal because 245 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 4: you're trying to evaluate one guy for what he doesn't 246 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 4: have and evaluate the other guy for an excess of 247 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 4: riches in terms of what they're playing with. And you know, 248 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 4: so the thing that's that I look at is I've 249 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 4: seen I've seen Drake May you know, with a lesser 250 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 4: cast last year than what Jaden Daniels had this year 251 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: played a really high level with just a with a 252 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 4: with a solid B level supporting cast. I've seen him 253 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 4: play at a really high level. Now, his supporting cast 254 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 4: this year was terrible, and his play, you know, took 255 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 4: a dip, and it wasn't all their fault. He got 256 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 4: some mechanical things out of whack, his delivery got a 257 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 4: little bit long, he wasn't quite as firm with his feet, 258 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 4: like there was things that he he let go a 259 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 4: little bit. With Jaden Daniels, I have, you know, all 260 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 4: these other years of him playing at kind of just 261 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 4: a huole hum mediocre level and then this year skyrockets 262 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 4: with you know, a unbelievable supporting cast. But I also 263 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 4: look at it and say, I saw, even though he 264 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 4: had more playing experience than Burrow. I saw Burrow take 265 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 4: off like a rocket ship when it just all clicked, 266 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 4: when they put an offense in place that matched his abilities, 267 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 4: he exploded and took off. So I'm not dismissing what 268 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 4: Jayden did by any stretch, but I am more forgiving 269 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 4: of Drake. And I think you always look in the 270 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 4: past to try and help predict the future, and at 271 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 4: least at least from a theory standpoint. And when I 272 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 4: look at, you know, Josh Allen from his second to 273 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 4: last year to his final year and the regression that 274 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 4: took place as the erosion of the supporting cast, it 275 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 4: was awful. I looked at Jordan Love the exact same 276 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 4: situation the year before at UTAs State. I watched him 277 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 4: and I was like, Hey, this guy's gonna be great. 278 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 4: Can't wait to watch him the next year. The next year, 279 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 4: they were terrible and he was terrible. So I've seen 280 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 4: those guys. In other words, I've seen Drake may do it. 281 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 4: I know he can do it right. It's a bigger guy, 282 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 4: he's more physical. I've seen him throw with anticipation. I've 283 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: seen him work in the in the mud in the 284 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 4: middle of the field. I've seen him create things when 285 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 4: pressure comes, like, so I don't get beholden to what's 286 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 4: the last thing I saw in the last year. It's 287 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 4: more of a body of work. And that's why I 288 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 4: ended up with Drake May over jayde and Daniels. Sorry 289 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 4: it's a word salad there, but it is kind of 290 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 4: tricky too. 291 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: I think it's the most fascinating thing in the draft, 292 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: especially for basics like us on some level that like I, 293 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 2: my theory is May is the easier because you've seen 294 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 2: him be in a tough spot and you've seen him 295 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 2: do such high level stuff. When I went and I 296 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: went back, and yeah, the quarterbacks are the most exciting 297 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 2: thing for me to watch certainly, and it's like. 298 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 3: You see it all and even this year. 299 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 2: When you watch this stuff this year, it's like, did 300 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: he take that biggest step back? I I hear you 301 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 2: that he's like misses, he misses throws more than. 302 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 3: More than more than you would want. 303 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 2: But he also has a consistency where every single game, 304 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: even this year, he's doing stuff that wows you. You 305 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 2: can see him as a red zone beast. I love 306 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 2: the guys that you mentioned, Alan and love because that's 307 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: the same sort of type of prospect he reminds me of, 308 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 2: just that he's just physically just who. 309 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: Wouldn't want to work with that? And you love him 310 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: both you have five and six. 311 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 2: But to me, Daniels is extremely hard to evaluate because 312 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: people get on McCarthy that he never you know, he 313 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 2: didn't have to do much, didn't have to throw the 314 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 2: It's like Jane Daniels threw the ball three hundred and 315 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 2: twenty five times this year. He wasn't that highly thought 316 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: of a prospect till his last like half season of 317 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 2: five seasons, and he's surrounded by great players. I think 318 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 2: it was you or it was Mina. It was you 319 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 2: and Mina that mentioned the RG three comp and that's 320 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 2: really stuck in my head since, and not as like 321 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: a negative because RG three was extremely accurate. You saw 322 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 2: how well he fit with Shanahan and look, he outplayed 323 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 2: Andrew Luck as a rookie. It wasn't like he was 324 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: a bad prospect. But he reminded Jane Natals reminds me 325 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: of him, which I find it kind of hard that 326 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 2: he gets pressure on him and then he just he 327 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 2: just goes, which is not necessarily what you want. Right 328 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 2: at the NFL that like he doesn't stick stick there 329 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 2: and throw a lot under pressure. 330 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it's kind of one or the other, you know. 331 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 4: And to me, even as a runner, he reminded me 332 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 4: of RG three and that he's kind of a narrow 333 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,239 Speaker 4: frame guy who's extremely fast but is not super elusive 334 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 4: and who takes shots. 335 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: Right. 336 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 4: I think was was a Holodi that broke his leg. 337 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 4: I think it was Helodi who hit him at RG 338 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 4: three and. 339 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: Right, it may take shots too, to be fair, but 340 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: he's bigger, but he's just sturdier dude. 341 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 4: So you know, that's that's what I struggle with a 342 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 4: little bit. But he is. He is a really good thrower, 343 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 4: like I've I was texting with a Ben Kurd about it. 344 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 4: Who's you know. I love the fact we have so 345 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 4: many people that are like watching these guys and putting 346 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: their opinions out there. I think it's great. I think 347 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 4: it's fun discussion. But you know, I try to communicate 348 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 4: with as many people as I can. And we were 349 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 4: having a little chat about it and I said, you know, mechanically, 350 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 4: he looks like he looks like a really skinny CJ. Stroud, 351 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 4: just in terms of posture, feet in the ground, throwing 352 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 4: the ball accurately, you know, touch, drive, you can do 353 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 4: all those things. But Stroud and we saw it in 354 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 4: in samples in college and then saw it in bulk 355 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 4: with the Texans has he is more. He's just more 356 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 4: creative and more natural in terms of when things when 357 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 4: he's getting moved around and making things happen. And I 358 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 4: just didn't see Jayden quite like that. 359 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 3: I mean, this draft has it's every draft has their 360 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 3: own characteristics, and it's like very quarterback heavy and the 361 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 3: wide receiver class it may be possibly unprecedented. But then 362 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: on the flip side, I was driving down from my 363 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: place today listening to you and Bucky do your all 364 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 3: defensive mock draft where you've got to pick thirty two 365 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 3: defensive players and ignore all those guys. It was almost 366 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 3: comical because you got to about pick nine and it's 367 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 3: like you were doing it live. 368 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: And I listened to that weeks ago DD because I'm 369 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 2: more of just like a real you know, this is 370 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 2: why this is why we need Greg in the host 371 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: chair kno Man, because we get that kind of duck 372 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 2: kind of l that's self. 373 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 4: When he's out there working on the motorbike. He likes 374 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 4: to throw on this shah. I'm just saying I didn't 375 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 4: at the last. 376 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 3: You know, I was, well, I like to I like 377 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 3: to get crash, but I just I do find it 378 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 3: interesting is I can't remember a draft like this where, 379 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: like you basically said, it's going to be an s 380 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 3: show when you get you get down to the mid 381 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 3: twenties and you guys are really struggling even try to 382 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 3: find fits for what the team needs were. And it's like, 383 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 3: have you seen a defensive draft like this where the 384 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 3: first round talent maybe withers away as quick as it does. 385 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 4: No, And that's why, uh, I was curious on that 386 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 4: exercise how it would go because offensively, I mean, we 387 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 4: finished the first round with thirty two offensive players, and 388 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 4: I'm like, dude, I got six more receivers. I could 389 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 4: I can justify taking you know here if we were 390 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 4: to extend this out into the second round. And then defensively, 391 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 4: it's like, holy crud, like what are we doing here? 392 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 4: Like this is not a first round player. So that's 393 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 4: it was. It was a healthy exercise, which to me 394 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 4: can inform some decisions and could push up some of 395 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 4: these defensive players like I've I've been saying over the 396 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 4: last couple of days, like Byron Murphy to me from Texas, 397 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 4: the defensive tackle, who is the best interior disruptor and 398 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 4: pass rusher in this draft? I think is going to 399 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 4: go higher than people think. I think there's a premium 400 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 4: on that. I was talking to a general manager two 401 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 4: days ago and we were having this discussion and he 402 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 4: posed an interesting question, which was, right down, if you 403 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 4: write down on a sheet of paper, you know how 404 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 4: many dominant edge rushers are there in the NFL. You 405 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: go pretty deep on that of really impactful dominant edge rushers, 406 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 4: and now write the impactful dominant defensive tackles and you'll 407 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 4: come up with seven or eight and then that's that's 408 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 4: about it. So if you've got a chance to get 409 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 4: one who you think can be one of those guys, hey, 410 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 4: there's value. Look at the Look what these guys are making. 411 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 4: Look what Christian Wilkins, look at all these guys that 412 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 4: got paid in the off season. The value of that 413 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 4: position for those types of guys. And it was his 414 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 4: argument was like, why would Byron Murphy not go ahead 415 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 4: of these edge rushers like they're similar type players? And 416 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 4: he's a heck of a lot harder to find. 417 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 3: I guess, like from an esoteric ang why like is 418 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 3: this just a one year type thing? Like why is 419 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 3: there such a dearth of defensive talent? It feels like 420 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 3: that there'd be a similar amount. 421 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 4: Each yeir nah, just ebbs and flows. I mean like 422 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 4: last year's tight end class was the best that I'd 423 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 4: seen twenty years. I mean, I'd never seen anything like that. 424 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 4: This year it's not very good. So it's just, you know, 425 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 4: it's how you hit it. It's just how it falls. 426 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 4: The one thing that we're going to see consistently is 427 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 4: they'll be you know, they'll be receivers every year, no 428 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 4: matter what, They'll always be receivers. 429 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 2: All right, what if I took you your Byron Murphy take, 430 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 2: but I replaced it with Johnny Newton. 431 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: Donny Newton's my guy. 432 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: I mean, okay, I don't know, I'm not. I guess 433 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 2: explain to me why he's not like a potential top 434 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 2: ten pick, because he is a guy that I that 435 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 2: you watch and it's like he wins every snap, it 436 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 2: seems like, and the more the more, the more you watch, 437 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: it's just like he wins and wins and wins and 438 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 2: wins and wins, and you can just see that working. 439 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 2: Like he seemed next level and he seemed like a 440 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 2: guy that I was like, is this one of those 441 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: guys teams aren't talking about because they all want to 442 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: take him because they love him? Probably, but probably I 443 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 2: don't know if that really happens. Why Why wouldn't he 444 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 2: be higher? Because he seems like a really exciting guy 445 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 2: along with Murphy. 446 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: Murphy's great too. 447 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a really good player, right to me, Like, 448 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 4: if you told me that he was going to be 449 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: a top fifteen pick, I wouldn't I wouldn't bat an 450 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 4: eye on at that at all. And he's part of 451 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 4: that discussion and rightfully so to bring him up that 452 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 4: I think you'll see him get raised up now in 453 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 4: terms of like what I thought of him, like the 454 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 4: concerns I had. I thought he was unbelievable with his hands, 455 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 4: like he has like it's like a car bomb goes 456 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 4: off when he hits guys. 457 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: He has got violent jolting that translated. 458 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 3: That's awesome, it's really good. 459 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 4: But you if you're not a force generator from the ground, 460 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 4: that's a little more difficult against NFL players. So In 461 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 4: other words, if you're generating, if you're if you're twisting 462 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 4: guys and torking guys and turning guys in college, you 463 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 4: can do that a lot easier than it is to 464 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 4: do that against a twenty eight year old man up here. 465 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 4: If you're gonna beat, if you're gonna beat really good 466 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 4: NFL offensive lineman, you have to beat him with leverage 467 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 4: and roll your hips and have your legs underneath you 468 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 4: and win from kind of the floor up, not just 469 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 4: the hands. So that to me is, you know, one 470 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 4: of the reasons why there was a separation there with 471 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 4: him and Murphy. 472 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 3: I know it comes as no surprise to you that 473 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 3: Greg and I we've kind of cornered the market when 474 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 3: it comes to studying offensive lineman, what they should be 475 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 3: doing on the field, how they react, the physical nature 476 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 3: of it. But I found it interesting, he said that executives 477 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 3: kept mentioning to you over and over Graham Barton, for 478 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 3: his versatility, plays all like that. This guy sounds like 479 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 3: he could go anywhere and be of a meet at service. 480 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 4: Well, he's played He's played center as a seventeen year 481 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,239 Speaker 4: old freshman at Duke and played it well. And then 482 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 4: he's played left tackle. If you can play center and 483 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 4: left tackle, you can play left and right guard, so 484 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 4: you're a five position flex guy. And he's incredibly intelligent. 485 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 4: So it's he's one of those guys who he's good 486 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 4: on tape at tackle, but you're like, he's not. That's 487 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: not probably his best position. He's going to be better 488 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 4: served to get inside at center. But the tape is good, 489 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 4: so you get good tape. Then the testing was outstanding. 490 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 4: He had a great workout, and then, as you can imagine, 491 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 4: when you have those two things going for you and 492 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,479 Speaker 4: your Duke level smart you get in and meet with 493 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 4: these teams so many of which which I think is 494 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 4: a big theme in this draft, and I think you 495 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 4: know something to keep an eye on going forward, is 496 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 4: this league is so full of young starting quarterbacks and 497 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 4: we're going to add a handful more this year, so 498 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 4: teams are trying to do everything they can to serve 499 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 4: those young quarterbacks. Having a freaking genius center that he 500 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 4: can play with for a long extended period of time 501 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 4: is a nice quality to have. 502 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 2: That almost sounds like uh landon Dickerson coming out. Other 503 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 2: than I know people were concerned with the injuries but 504 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 2: just like that was when you were you were very 505 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 2: high on they'll give you your props coming in and 506 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 2: that was absolutely right. He's turned into a bargain. They 507 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 2: just gave him a ton of ton of money. That 508 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 2: actually makes me think, do you have some what are 509 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 2: some picks or maybe just one like one one uh 510 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 2: selection over the years. Take one of your guys that 511 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 2: you're like at that you're proud of that, yet you 512 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: want to stick your chest out, and then to balance 513 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 2: it out one that you wish you had. 514 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 4: Bounce a wish fifty whiffs the hits because. 515 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: You could you remember him better? You mean, yeah, yeah. 516 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 4: Because you're just like, oh gosh, but I mean the 517 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 4: the hits never make their way to the front of 518 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 4: your brain. Those were always like lodge somewhere in the 519 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 4: in the back of your brain. I always just did 520 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,719 Speaker 4: a fallback with Kelsey because that wasn't you know, that 521 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 4: was a fun one. But I mean, that's like the 522 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 4: greatest example of scouting to me of what scouting is 523 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 4: is that you're going to come out, Okay, you really 524 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 4: want to come out to the front of the stage. 525 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 4: As one of the people who evaluated Jason Kelcey and 526 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 4: we took him, what was he the sixth round and 527 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 4: he's going to go into the Hall of Fame and 528 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 4: you know, one of the best centers of all time. 529 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 4: You want to beat your chest on that, or do 530 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 4: you want to remind everybody that we took Danny Watkins 531 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 4: in the first round of that same draft. 532 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 2: Well that's like I think, Scott piol you got to 533 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 2: keep keeping his on his office. 534 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: There were some guys from tight End Stakowski. 535 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 2: I believe they took a round in front of Tom Brady, 536 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 2: so he always kept that framed on his desk as 537 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 2: a reminder of like, you're not as smart as you think. 538 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 4: Yeah no, but like you know, the fun ones like 539 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,479 Speaker 4: Geno Stone, I could not want. He was watching him 540 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 4: coming out and I went back and I was watching 541 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 4: some of the old draft stuff and that was my 542 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 4: kind when it got picked him, Like I didn't, I 543 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 4: don't understand it. Like I I him like a he 544 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 4: was like a third round grade. And I would talk. 545 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 4: All I do is talk to gms and buddies around 546 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 4: the league, and I'm like, nobody liked the guy, and 547 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 4: I'm like, what am I missing? Like he's just a 548 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 4: good player, gets his hands on the football. He's super instinctive, smart, tough. 549 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 4: And then the Ravens I think took him in like 550 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 4: the sixth or seventh round, and I think he just 551 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 4: got paid a nice chunk of money in free agency. 552 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 4: He's been a really, really good player. So those are 553 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 4: the those are kind of the fun ones. But then 554 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 4: for every one of those, there's ten where you're like, oh, man, like, 555 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: I mean, look like, I didn't trailing Burks. I thought 556 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 4: was a really good player. I didn't necessarily think, you know, 557 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 4: he was going to be an All Pro, but I 558 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 4: thought he'd be doing more than he's doing. 559 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 3: Now, we'll let you go in a minute. Here. There's 560 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 3: so much wide receiver talk, but there's one guy, and 561 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 3: I know that he had like concerns with whether it's 562 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 3: off the field or what happened on the field after 563 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 3: a game. But yeah, Jermaine Burton from Alabama. Like watching him. 564 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,239 Speaker 3: I know, because of all that other stuff, maybe some 565 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 3: teams don't even have him on their board, but I 566 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: loved what I saw, Like, is it is this person 567 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 3: like draftable or is it gonna be what happens? What's 568 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 3: the destiny here? 569 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 4: There's a lot of ability there. Yeah, No. I mean, look, 570 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 4: everybody's it's all different, right, everybody has their things. I 571 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 4: don't ever jump into that stuff. There's no win for 572 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 4: me and doing that, So I just say he's he's 573 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 4: got to have a lot of ability. But that's why 574 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 4: there's a little bit of a challenge in terms of 575 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 4: the stuff you learn, you know, talking to everybody and 576 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 4: doing all the homework versus the pure Like in some ways, Mark, 577 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,479 Speaker 4: like what you're doing is just a pure scouting, you know, 578 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 4: like this would be an example of that because you 579 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 4: did it. Remember you asked me about George Pickens, the 580 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 4: George Pickens yere Greg did. 581 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 582 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 4: Greg's like, what am I missing? This guy's a freak. 583 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 4: I'm like, I know, it's not that the tape is great, 584 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 4: but everybody's got to figure out all the other stuff. 585 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: And it's sort of what Pickens is. 586 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: He's kind of born out on both sides of like, yeah, 587 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 2: the talent is the charts, but there's there's some headache there. 588 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 1: What's up? 589 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 4: So I mean that's what I'm getting to Mark, And 590 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 4: that's why, like when you're in the draft room, this 591 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 4: is the discussion that takes place where the area scout 592 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 4: who went into the school, got all the information. He 593 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 4: might have a lower grade on a player, and then 594 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 4: they'll give cross check assignments and the guy in in 595 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 4: the southeast or you know, other part of the country 596 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 4: is going to watch the same player, and he's like 597 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 4: this area scout's an idiot, Like this guy's much better 598 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 4: than that. And it's like, yeah, well you're just doing 599 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 4: the pure football evaluation and he's doing the whole the 600 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 4: whole picture, you know, So then you have to have 601 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 4: that discussion. 602 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: It makes sense. 603 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 2: Who's uh? And yeah, I know, I know. You got 604 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 2: mina times later and Move the Sticks. Everyone should check 605 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 2: that out. You've probably got a million things. 606 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 4: We did a home and home. We did a little 607 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 4: uh one on her podcast's coming on Move the Sticks. 608 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 4: That's nice trade. 609 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: Everyone wins. 610 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: It's the ESPN crossover. 611 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 4: Does she also have the same role that she doesn't 612 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 4: come on unless Dan's not on your show? 613 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: She has engaged with Dan on the show many times, 614 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: many times. 615 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 4: Really yeah, so he wasn't supposed to be there and 616 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 4: showed up any She. 617 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 3: Doesn't have a ten year grudge Matt, whether it's real 618 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 3: or fake with I. 619 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: Think it really is. 620 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 4: It might really be I think it is, it is, 621 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 4: it is. Do you remember what the first iteration. 622 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 3: Of that being, No, it goes back to like ancient Greece. 623 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 3: It's like, it's it's deep ancestry, do you. 624 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the wholesome fun of. 625 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 4: Him for dressing like an uber driver, a Lemo driver 626 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 4: or something on the very first episode. 627 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,919 Speaker 2: That's the wholesome assassins. And now I'm now I'm Fonz. 628 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 1: All right. 629 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 2: Last last football one for you is we just haven't 630 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 2: talked running backs, Like, who do you like? Who's your 631 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 2: favorite running back in this class? He thinks gonna step 632 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 2: in and do some fantasy damage. 633 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 4: Maybe Yeah, I like Marshall Lloyd from SC He's like 634 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 4: got the perfect running back bodies five a's two hundred 635 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 4: and twenty pounds. He catched the ball out of the backfield. 636 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 4: He's not bad as a past protector, so to me, 637 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 4: I'm a fan of his. I like Ray Davis from 638 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 4: Kentucky another one who's like two fifteen sturdy guy. And 639 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 4: then just in terms of like two guys, I think 640 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 4: they're going to have a roll and catch balls next year, 641 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 4: Bucky Irving can really catch it out of the backfield 642 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 4: from Oregon, who like kind of gives me a little 643 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 4: Devin Singletary vibes coming out of college, so that would 644 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 4: be one. And then Dylan Lowby, who might he might 645 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 4: not even get drafted, he'd be a six to seventh 646 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 4: round pick, maybe even a free agent. But the kid 647 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 4: out of New Hampshire, he caught a bazillion balls. So like, 648 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 4: to me, I don't think it's a great running back year, 649 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 4: but you got a couple interesting guys who can kind 650 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 4: of be more feature backs, and then after that those 651 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 4: are a couple guys will be kind of third down 652 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 4: guys catch the ball a little bit. 653 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 2: That's why I like DJ, even though sort of on 654 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 2: some level, you're and you know this, your prospects list 655 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 2: set the tone in some ways for the rest of 656 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: the draftnick industrial complex out there, Like your your prospect 657 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 2: list has real impact. But you ask him about the 658 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 2: running backs, like that's way off a lot of those 659 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 2: consensus boards, and I like that. 660 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: DJ's thinking, yeah, you know, I was talking. 661 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 4: I talked to someone last night and we just got 662 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 4: the running backs, and it's like his top three running 663 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: back would be like my eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth rundbacks. 664 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 4: Like it's just a weird year with that group. 665 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: All right, Daniel Deremia, it's your week, it's your time 666 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: of year.

Draft 705 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 2: is only one week away. We'll have you covered all 706 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 2: next week. We got the Mark Sessler mock draft coming up. 707 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: It's going to be like the sixth or seventh annual. 708 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 3: I think it is the sixth or seventh. And then, 709 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 3: like I know, the gist in the past was I 710 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 3: just you know, thrown a couple darts at a wall. It's 711 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 3: like I've been grinding the tape this time, Greg, No, Mark's. 712 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: Been He's been doing it, and we're we're working on 713 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: some extra motivation, some extra spells and whistles. We're adding 714 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 2: to the Mark draft, so that'll be exciting. And then 715 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 2: on Thursday, of course we'll recap round one. We'll we'll 716 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 2: have another preview show as well. We'll do some sandwiches. 717 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 2: But for now, we thought we would open up the 718 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 2: mail bag and get your draft questions to just try 719 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 2: to hit as many as we can before we go Mark. 720 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 2: So if you're watching on YouTube, we'll fly the questions up. 721 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 2: But the first one is from Daniel Hall and he asks, 722 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 2: had the Panthers given the Bears the third overall pick 723 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 2: instead of the first overall pick, do you think Justin 724 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 2: Fields would be their starter for twenty twenty four. I 725 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 2: find this interesting because it is a good reminder that 726 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 2: the Bears great moves last year, they did get lucky, 727 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 2: how bad the Panthers truly were, and you need luck 728 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 2: to build a dynasty along the way. It's like, you know, 729 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 2: the Chiefs needed Patrick Mahomes to fall that far to 730 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 2: make the smart move to go to go get them, 731 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 2: and they're lucky. I don't think Fields would be their starter, 732 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 2: no matter what. If they had a top three pick, 733 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: you chose the right number, number three. If they were 734 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 2: further back then, I think it becomes more of a discussion. 735 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 2: I tend to think they did not really see Justin 736 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 2: Fields as a true difference maker, and that Drake Maye 737 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels would also, you know, provide a window into 738 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 2: a new field. 739 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 3: I wrote down the same thing. I think they made 740 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 3: their evaluation on Justin Fields and in top three, I 741 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 3: think they would have found something to like in each 742 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 3: one of those guys to move on from Fields, right. 743 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 3: It seems clear to me every teams different. 744 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 2: It really sounds like, based on everything we're hearing, more 745 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 2: teams have Daniels two than May, and that there are 746 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 2: some teams out there, and who knows if the Bears 747 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 2: would have been one of these teams that agree with 748 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 2: the Chris Simms and the JT. O. 749 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,320 Speaker 1: Sullivan's of the world. And like some people just aren't 750 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:16,879 Speaker 1: in on May. 751 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 2: They're just like nah, right, And I'm surprised by that 752 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:24,720 Speaker 2: because to me, he's as exciting and maybe as good 753 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 2: as any prospect I can remember watching since like Andrew 754 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: Luck along with Calla Williams is even better. So it's 755 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 2: crazy there's two of these guys, but just in terms 756 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: of pure excitement level and talent, he seems to be 757 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 2: at that level. But some teams aren't into it. There 758 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,359 Speaker 2: are three really good quarterbacks in this class, though, so yeah, 759 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 2: I think they would not be keeping fields. The next 760 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 2: question is from Patty seven to ten on Twitter. Could 761 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 2: you pass on to Mark Sessler that I was watching 762 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 2: Winnie the Pooh with my daughters and Rabbit uses the 763 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: phrase heavens to Betsy, so he is in good company. 764 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:58,919 Speaker 2: More of a comment than a question, but I liked it. 765 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I've I've mentioned before multiple times that 766 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 3: it was my grandmother that used to say this in 767 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 3: various situations when flustered or something was surprising. Yeah, so 768 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 3: maybe she caught it from Winning the Pooh's Friend Rabbit. 769 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. 770 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 2: It's always just a trip back in time on the 771 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 2: Around the NFL podcast, whenever that comes up. Next one 772 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 2: is from Tom Marsh, A longtime listener recognized Tom a 773 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 2: serious question, could Justin Jefferson be traded at the draft? 774 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 2: He also says, unserious question, is Mahomes really nowhere near 775 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 2: goats status? Let's start unserious. First, we didn't say that 776 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 2: he's nowhere. 777 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 3: Who would have said that? 778 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's responding to our conversation. 779 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 2: On Wednesday that it was like his start his We 780 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 2: were saying, like, it's just hard to compare someone who's 781 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 2: had an entire career, like if Mahomes' career ended this moment. Yeah, 782 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 2: his his peak was brilliant, But how do you compare 783 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 2: that to guys like Montana or Brady or especially Manny 784 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 2: that played so long. I don't know, it's hard guys 785 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 2: who won three or four. 786 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: It's like a goat farm. There's a couple, So it's not. 787 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: He's nowhere near. 788 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 2: It's just like he's got to keep plaining and he'll 789 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 2: get there. There's almost no question the Jefferson question. I 790 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: was glad someone asked this. I do think there's like 791 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 2: a greater chance that Justin Jefferson is traded than probably 792 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 2: public perception is out there. I would still be shocked, 793 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: but you do have the recipes here for at least 794 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 2: it being possible, which is really great quarterback prospects, and 795 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 2: the Vikings being this motivated to try to go up, 796 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 2: like I would only trade Justin Jefferson, and if I'm 797 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 2: going up to one, then I would maybe think about it, 798 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 2: But I wouldn't think about it if I'm the Vikings, 799 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: but he is not as valuable making thirty million dollars 800 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 2: a year or whatever. It's going to cost one hundred 801 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 2: million dollars guaranteed as he is this moment on this 802 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 2: rookie deal, and that's what it's going to cost. But 803 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: I still think like it would be crazy for them 804 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 2: to do it. 805 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,759 Speaker 3: I think it's like there's this assumption because they've got 806 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 3: the two number ones, that they have everything they need 807 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 3: to move up. But if teams aren't going to play 808 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 3: ball with those those picks and they want if it's you, 809 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 3: we need Justin Jefferson to get up to two or 810 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 3: three or whatever. Like I think the trend is you 811 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 3: move on from some of these like massively starry wide 812 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 3: receivers when the contracts become insane and you find, like 813 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 3: DJ said before, like these players will not Justin Jefferson, 814 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 3: but great wide receivers will be available in every draft 815 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 3: from now until the end of time. 816 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 1: Hmm. 817 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, Jefferson's so unique that quessi adopomenta that their 818 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 2: GM's comment that like, we're ready to make them the 819 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,400 Speaker 2: highest paid player in the league. To me, that just 820 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 2: said they know what they have and I don't think 821 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 2: there's almost any chance. But if you if I'm individually 822 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 2: looking at Ayuk and Jefferson and you want to throw 823 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: some surprise T Higgins and some surprise names out there, 824 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,480 Speaker 2: like a like an AJ Brown or divide like individually, 825 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 2: I don't think any of them are close to likely, 826 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 2: but odds, you know, the history would say, like there'll 827 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 2: be one surprise out I. 828 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 3: Think I uke to the Steelers. There's little buzz and 829 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 3: whispers around that, so we'll see. 830 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: Next one is from Eric Blazel, who would be your 831 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: dream non NFL figure to announce a draft pick for 832 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,240 Speaker 2: your favorite or any franchise? 833 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 4: You go ahead. 834 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 3: I came up with a quick list. Oh I like this, 835 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 3: Brad and Leo. This is from Myle's just like from 836 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 3: my pick, Like this is who I like. It's my team, 837 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 3: your guys, So they would be one. 838 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 2: But what about Leo potentially playing Frank Sinatra in an 839 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 2: upcoming Biac biopic? 840 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: Did he see that? 841 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 3: I did? 842 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: I don't. 843 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 3: I don't see the resemblance, but I don't know. But 844 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 3: why not, Well, you don't have to look exactly like No, No, 845 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 3: I mean I like I liked I like him in 846 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 3: any for the most part. Yeah, I think he could 847 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 3: pull it off. So I have them. 848 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 2: I have Chelsea Clint Jennifer Lawrence would play his his 849 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 2: second wife. I believe in that movie she's too old 850 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 2: for tough luck for the first one in real life. 851 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have Chelsea Clinton dressed in a suit in 852 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: medieval armor. King Kong Bundy. Although King Kong Bundy that 853 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 3: was this would make news because King Kong Bundy died 854 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen, so we'd be back from the dead. 855 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 3: Dana Harvey announcing the pick is ross pro that would 856 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 3: be nice an AI version of Julius Caesar or Raggedy 857 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 3: ann Andy. 858 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: Those are all amazing. 859 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,879 Speaker 3: I can't top that. When you get to day three, though, 860 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 3: they had they have animals announcing the picks. 861 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 2: And sure my and my just first instinct was Nicholas Cage. 862 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 2: I just love him and I just feel like I 863 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 2: don't know what he's gonna do. That's the whole beauty 864 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 2: of Nick Cage. I just feel like he will own 865 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 2: the moment. Our next one is from our friend Matt 866 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 2: Tanton had some barbecue with him in Austin. He's a 867 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 2: big time Bears fan. He addresses this directly to tug Bot. 868 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take that as a slight, but you know, 869 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 2: Dan did send out the prompt. Is the world prepared 870 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,439 Speaker 2: for the Bears to have an actual legit QB If 871 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams is as generational as US Bears fans, hope, pray, 872 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 2: believe he'll be. 873 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 3: My answer to this is are the Bears prepared? Hmmm? 874 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 2: The world's prepared the world. The world's not thinking about 875 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 2: the Bears. We're excited about new quarterbacks coming into the league. 876 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be fantastic. Not I guess I 877 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,359 Speaker 2: needed to do this, but just watch it's just like 878 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 2: I just can't see how it's not gonna work. I 879 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 2: just can't see how he's not gonna be. And now, 880 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,280 Speaker 2: generational is one thing, but if like Trevor Lawrence level, 881 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 2: like you're in the top ten quarterbacks in the league 882 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 2: is the floor and I'd be surprised if he's you know, 883 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 2: like long term. I just can't imagine him not being 884 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 2: higher in that. Like we're ready. It's fine, it's another 885 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 2: great quarterback. We love quarterbacks. Are the Bears ready because 886 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 2: they have been a somewhat unserious franchise for a long 887 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 2: time in terms of their offense, and people are like, oh, 888 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 2: they're in great position now. It's like, I guess, like 889 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 2: it's a new offensive system that bringing in. I like 890 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 2: Shane Waldron, fine it I like Keenan Allen, but they 891 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 2: don't really have a number three and you know, he's 892 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 2: had his injuries and stuff the offensive line. It's like, Okay, 893 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 2: it's a new offensive system. Are they ready? 894 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 4: Well? 895 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 2: Is Matt Eberflus ready? Is the GM and ownership already? 896 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 2: I'm not that I'm moment, I'd say. 897 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,439 Speaker 3: Especially if at number nine they get one of these 898 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 3: like top white outs. I I've talked to Tanton dating 899 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 3: back like a decade plus in our newsroom about the Bears, 900 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 3: and he's frustrated from the top of the heap all 901 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 3: the way down with how the whole place is run. 902 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 3: And I get it. But even under Levy Smith and 903 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 3: even previously that they always had these like thirteen and 904 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 3: three seasons with no quarterback where it was like there's 905 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 3: always defense in the same you know erlocker and like 906 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 3: a great secondary and stuff. It's like if they were 907 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 3: quarterback led and the Bears had like a top two 908 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 3: or three guy. I think from a fan angle, having 909 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 3: watched football for like forty years, that is something that 910 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 3: I'm not totally prepared for in the sense they have 911 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 3: been sort of the same thing forever and if not 912 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 3: milk toe's sort of the weird, wrong type of good team. 913 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 3: When they've been gone to the playoffs, this is this 914 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 3: would be different, right? 915 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 2: And are we ready for the fans because they are 916 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 2: among the best fans in the league. It would be 917 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 2: great for the NFL. They have been irrationally optimistic about 918 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 2: their team on an annual basis. Adam rank here at 919 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 2: the NFL I think represents that well and been so 920 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 2: wrong so many times that when they actually have a 921 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 2: real quarterback and a good team, I mean, They're going to. 922 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: Get wild and I love it. It's a great sports down. 923 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: Was reminded of that watching the nine to ten playoff 924 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 2: playing game. I don't know if you were in on 925 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 2: Bulls Hawks, it wasn't much of a game, but then that. 926 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 3: Crowd was insane for a night. 927 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 2: Like the Bulls fans, it makes sense they they just 928 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: want a winner and this team's been sub mediocre forever. 929 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 2: They're ten games under five hundred, but they're going freaking 930 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 2: crazy because they you know, they want a winner and. 931 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,279 Speaker 3: That ball is completely different than basketball. True, and in 932 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: this case, I think it's it is the same, great, 933 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 3: it's similar, similar, and. 934 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 2: Yet it's a Bearstown for all those titles. Everyone in 935 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: Chicago will tell you it's still Bears and everything. 936 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 3: I thought Bulls would have put that to the test 937 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 3: for a while. 938 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: I had a question. This was the most common question. 939 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 2: This one's from Mode Design Things, but we got about 940 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 2: seven or eight times asked, will there be an ATM 941 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 2: draft show? 942 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: Quite enjoyed last year. 943 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 2: Unfortunately there won't be, so we we had to mention 944 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: it at some point where. 945 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 3: Advice rewatch last year's that's still that would be great. 946 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 2: It's got two million views on you, which is wild, 947 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 2: but don't have enough resources to do it. So we're 948 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 2: very disappointed and would love to bring it back. Not 949 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 2: happening this year. All right, we're gonna take a quick break. 950 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,000 Speaker 2: We'll hit more of the mail bag after this. Okay, 951 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 2: we are back. Next question is what do the heroes 952 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 2: think is the most Chris Wesseling type prospect of the 953 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 2: draft and look, I just want any reason to uh 954 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 2: to mention Chris on the show. And it got me thinking, actually, 955 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 2: what is that even? What what is a Chris Wesseling 956 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 2: type podcat prospect. 957 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 3: I came up with. I remember how much Westling loved 958 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 3: the physical nature of Steve Smith, and I'm not saying 959 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 3: that the same player, but Roman, don't say, to me, 960 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 3: was like someone that I think Chris would have been. 961 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 3: Like I I get Marvin Harris and all said, it's 962 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 3: like no one's looking past that. But like Rome, to me, 963 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:52,799 Speaker 3: is this kind of guy that's going to come in 964 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 3: and be a nasty, physical player. And I think Wes 965 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 3: always appreciated. 966 00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 2: That that is a perfect pick. You're absolutely right, that 967 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 2: was his style. Well, uh an ankwon bold and type 968 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 2: of who I asked too. But Wes was unpredictable on 969 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 2: some level in that like he liked what he liked 970 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 2: and that was what quarterbacks he could be. 971 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 1: All. 972 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 2: You know, he loved Mariota, but he also loved like 973 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 2: big physical guys like Herbert. So I thought Drake Drake 974 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 2: made to me popped up. I felt like, you know, 975 00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,200 Speaker 2: that's when I think we would have like agreed on 976 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 2: that just watching someone do things, and I think May 977 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 2: could be like this in terms of the throws that 978 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 2: he makes, do things that you just haven't seen guys 979 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 2: do before. That he loved. He loved a running back 980 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 2: that could just pop a big play. When I was 981 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 2: thinking about what what is he like running back like? 982 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 2: He likes ones that are physical. Certainly I don't know 983 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 2: this class well enough, but Trey Benson is that guy 984 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,319 Speaker 2: who can just pop the big play like Wes was 985 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 2: early on on Jonathan Taylor really thought he'd be great 986 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 2: and loved Chris Johnson. Right, So that's the thing, different 987 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 2: types of players. He likes the physical type, but he 988 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 2: likes the big playmakers. It's about me, it always is. 989 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 2: And uh yeah, if you want to check my Twitter 990 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 2: account this week, I sent out randomly this what West 991 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 2: saw as his football syllabus. It was just a Excel 992 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: spreadsheet essentially of all the books that he believes would 993 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 2: be a great And I know you're not active right 994 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,240 Speaker 2: now on Twitter, so you well, I have a copy 995 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 2: of this though, right yeah, right, And he had sent 996 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 2: it out. We have copies, so it but just randomly 997 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 2: I clicked on it this week and I and I thought, oh, 998 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,320 Speaker 2: that would be cool to send it out and people 999 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 2: really like seeing it. And got all the best football 1000 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 2: books of all time, category categories and million wains long 1001 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 2: his best long forms. He really spent a lot of 1002 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 2: the time the first time he was sick going through 1003 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,280 Speaker 2: all these long forms. I was like a project form 1004 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 2: those sports long forms, nonsports. 1005 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: It's really great. 1006 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 2: Check check that out on my Twitter account if you want. 1007 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 2: This week next one is from Bradley Sadler, who says 1008 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,359 Speaker 2: who has a better chance of drafting a first round 1009 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 2: qb Rams, Jets or Seahawks. 1010 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 3: Uh. You know, it's interesting because I was going to 1011 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 3: bring this up with DJ, and you know, we moved on, 1012 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 3: but he and Bucky had a conversation about the fact 1013 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 3: that the Seahawks could be a very good destination for 1014 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 3: Michael Pennox junior. That they are you know, they've got 1015 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 3: people in the building, they're the guy running their offense 1016 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 3: is a Penix. He's a he's a tutor of Pennix. 1017 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 3: They're up in the Northwest, like no Pennix knows how 1018 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 3: to play in that in that world, in that weather, 1019 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 3: and it's someone that you could kind of nestle behind 1020 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 3: Geno Smith and Sam Howell for a season, which makes 1021 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 3: sense for him. But it's like the arm talent and 1022 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 3: what they have, It's like, I think they should look 1023 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 3: forward to the quarterback. The thing is this, though, because 1024 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 3: they have a they've got their first round pick, but 1025 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 3: they don't have a second, I believe, and so they 1026 00:46:43,320 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 3: have to like figure out if they even wanted to 1027 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 3: package picks now right. 1028 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: Up, I thought they I think they do not. They 1029 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 1: maybe sold. 1030 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 2: I think they got rid of one of theirs, but 1031 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 2: they had they got rid of the they lost one 1032 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 2: in the Leonard Williams trade, but I think they had 1033 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 2: one from the Broncos, So I think it even even. 1034 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 3: I'm looking at Seahawks dot com and it's round one, 1035 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 3: round three, two fourths, two sixth and a seventh. Uh So, 1036 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess it would be it would be 1037 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 3: that's kind of your draft right there, and it would 1038 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 3: be not their number one need at the moment. But 1039 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 3: I'd say that over the Jets. To me, it's like, 1040 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,919 Speaker 3: why are we first round Jets? Like they Aaron Rodgers 1041 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 3: just telling to me wants to play multiple years. Rams 1042 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 3: that's a little spicy. Depends who would fall to over 1043 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 3: or what they would do. Yeah, I thought, and you're right, 1044 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 3: there isn't a second round pick. That was a brain 1045 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 3: part by me. 1046 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 2: I thought it was an interesting question because we haven't 1047 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 2: heard quarterbacks associated really with any of these teams, and 1048 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 2: yet they're all strong surprise teams. The Rams have to 1049 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: start thinking about the post Matthew Stafford world. First round 1050 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 2: would be a surprise, but if the right guy fell 1051 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,400 Speaker 2: to them or second round. I kind of opened this 1052 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 2: up in my head as like, okay, but mate, what 1053 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 2: about a surprise second round pick if the right guy fell, 1054 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 2: like if Penix falls the Jets. 1055 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: It's not crazy to think about that. 1056 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 2: And we had another question that was first round though 1057 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 2: not first round probably and someone said, well, so the 1058 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 2: that would just be Jets to the Jets do. 1059 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: The Jordan love thing. 1060 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 2: It did motivate Aaron Rodgers to win into uh MVP Awards, 1061 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 2: and then the Seahawks. It's almost weird how little connection 1062 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 2: there has been made that, like the Washington offensive coordinator 1063 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 2: is their offensive coordinator. Pennix picked the right year to 1064 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 2: come out with that, so he's there, and then he 1065 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 2: also has a close relationship and I think you know, 1066 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 2: played with played for Antonio Pierce, and those are two 1067 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:32,879 Speaker 2: teams that might be drafting quarterbacks. I don't think it's 1068 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 2: going to be a priority for Seattle in round one, 1069 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 2: but round round two maybe. 1070 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 3: Never know, and I hope not. 1071 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 1: I'll just be like a lot of drama. Next question 1072 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 1: is really for you. It's from Sam Brown. 1073 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 2: He says, please, can you just give Mark three minutes 1074 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 2: uninterrupted to talk about what he was. 1075 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,080 Speaker 1: Doing in the year nineteen ninety seven. I'm excited. 1076 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 3: Well, I don't think. I hope this won't take three minutes. 1077 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 3: But I came up with a bulleted list. I had 1078 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 3: to go through the memory banks on this one, and 1079 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 3: here it goes.

On these calls, 1089 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 3: I used an aka Drew Corbette and would compile a 1090 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 3: case to bust their asses.

It's just obvious. 1140 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,760 Speaker 2: Any words of advice for a very near future first 1141 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 2: time that my immediate thought was would be like don't worry, 1142 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,359 Speaker 2: and I guess this would apply to you Eric as well, 1143 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:13,239 Speaker 2: is don't stress or plan too much before they get there. 1144 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 2: Seems like a waste of time that like, enjoy that, 1145 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 2: not like you have to like desert your your lovely wife. 1146 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,439 Speaker 2: You should be supporting her and helping her in any 1147 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 2: way obviously while she's pregnant. But like I see a 1148 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 2: lot of times people like, well I got to plan this, 1149 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 2: I gotta do this, I gotta. 1150 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 1: Come up because it's like. 1151 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 2: It's all got to be meaningless anyway, So you might 1152 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 2: as well just like enjoy enjoy the time before it's a. 1153 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 1: Little bit of a calm before the storm. 1154 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I really agree with that. I think in general 1155 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 3: for a dad, one on one time is very valuable 1156 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 3: no matter what you're doing. But the second thing I 1157 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:52,160 Speaker 3: thought it was like the child with a child. Yeah, 1158 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 3: with our first born, Luke, like I had I was 1159 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 3: home four days a week, like during because I was 1160 00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 3: working in NFL, but it was only three days a week, 1161 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 3: and like I literally was like taking care of him 1162 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 3: as a newborn for like hours a day, and it 1163 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 3: formed this incredible bond. So I know a lot sometimes 1164 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 3: dad's like out on all that until like until the 1165 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 3: baby can talk or the child can like interact. It's 1166 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 3: like get in there early and like be part of 1167 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 3: that because it really creates something that I never expected. 1168 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 3: So there you go. 1169 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 5: Eric, Right, I'm actually pretty excited. I don't know, I mean, 1170 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 5: obviously I'm pretty excited I'm having a son, but I'm 1171 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,959 Speaker 5: really like gung ho. I've had weird radio hours before, 1172 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 5: so I feel like I've been primed and nurtured to 1173 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,399 Speaker 5: have be up at two am every two hours through 1174 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 5: the night. So like I'm actually kind of excited about 1175 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 5: like being my wife has done enough, Like I'm gonna 1176 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 5: be like ready to go and take take over whenever needed. 1177 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:43,440 Speaker 3: So good messaging five wakes out. 1178 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:44,400 Speaker 1: That's exciting. 1179 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 2: And although I do find it, I feel like this 1180 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 2: happens for a lot of couples that they realized with 1181 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 2: the second kid. 1182 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 1: It's like, well, we don't both have to get up 1183 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 1: every time. 1184 00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:57,359 Speaker 5: Second, my wife just made that clear that there will 1185 00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 5: be a period of time where I am the guys. 1186 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 3: But the key being like. 1187 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:09,360 Speaker 2: Either she's the overnight woman that night or in general 1188 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 2: that week or whatever it is. 1189 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: And you know, it doesn't have to be the same 1190 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:12,799 Speaker 1: person every day. 1191 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 3: Lug each other. 1192 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 2: You don't need to be like, oh, come, you know 1193 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 2: you're again. It's like do one or the other? You 1194 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 2: want the other stronger in the day. Also, people don't 1195 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 2: know this, but every human child is dramatically different, and 1196 00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 2: so these like base sort of like recommendations for what 1197 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 2: to do and how to think, Like, you know, it 1198 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 2: doesn't exactly work because every child reacts completely different. Look 1199 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 2: at the Westling Brothers, right, my even my two children, 1200 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 2: one advice for one would have been terrible advice for 1201 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:41,919 Speaker 2: the other, and vice versus. 1202 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 5: Right, well, we'll get through this first one. Before I 1203 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:46,319 Speaker 5: got to worry about trends. I'm just you know, just. 1204 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:47,600 Speaker 1: Saying you're all different. 1205 00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 3: It seems like a fair plan. 1206 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 2: Jeff Yates, what would, in your mind be the most 1207 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 2: polarizing pick your team of fandom could make this year? Oh, 1208 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,319 Speaker 2: I didn't read this right the first time. Well, for me, 1209 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 2: it would be the Patriots trading down and just doing 1210 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 2: that like that, no matter who's on the board, whether 1211 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,959 Speaker 2: it's May or Daniels. And I would be personally more 1212 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 2: into it if it was if May is gone and 1213 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,920 Speaker 2: Daniels is on the board and they traded down to 1214 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:16,320 Speaker 2: like the Giants and they still get one of the receivers. 1215 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 2: To me, I'm gonna I'm gonna ride with that and 1216 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:22,000 Speaker 2: just see what happens. But that would be the most polarizing. 1217 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,319 Speaker 2: Everyone wants the QB, I think. 1218 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 3: So if I'm coming from a Browns angle, like, don't 1219 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:29,160 Speaker 3: they don't pick till the fifty fourth pick? And so 1220 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 3: I kind of was like, I mean, quarterbacks stupid just 1221 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 3: because they're not going to take a quarterback at ninety four. 1222 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 3: But like I thought, the one thought like this, the heart, 1223 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 3: the beating heart of the Browns is Nick Chubb. But 1224 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,840 Speaker 3: there's questions about his health still and where will be 1225 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 3: and like his future to some degree in terms of 1226 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 3: like what is this player post injury? Like if they 1227 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:49,840 Speaker 3: went and picked at fifty four, it could work like 1228 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 3: a starting type running back. I think that would yeah, 1229 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 3: cause some problems with certain Browns fins. 1230 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, that wouldn't makes it. 1231 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 2: The thing is, like everyone loves all these offensive players 1232 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 2: and like none of the tackles are are going to 1233 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:07,839 Speaker 2: be polarizing. It's always a team that just looks at 1234 00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 2: their board differently than the rest of the league. It's 1235 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 2: often been the Seahawks lately, used to be the Patriots 1236 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 2: often where it's just like they take a guy who's 1237 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,279 Speaker 2: on the consensus board at like forty three, except they 1238 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 2: take them at sixteen and everyone goes crazy. But it's like, 1239 00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:26,359 Speaker 2: you don't know anything. Finlay McClure, which you know sounds suspicious. 1240 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,440 Speaker 2: Is that a made up name, Finlay McClure. I think 1241 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 2: it possibly is from overseas, I don't know, or it's 1242 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,919 Speaker 2: a character from like Ducktails. If you are Sean Payton 1243 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 2: and the Broncos, which scenarios do you pick trade up 1244 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 2: to four, give up three first to get MacArthur or 1245 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,760 Speaker 2: may Stan Patt twelve and take Pennix or take best 1246 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,839 Speaker 2: player available non quarterback at twelve and build the team 1247 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 2: up first. Of those three, I would go for the 1248 00:56:53,400 --> 00:56:57,400 Speaker 2: third option, but I I like to take a quarterback. Yeah, 1249 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 2: I just think reaching at twelve seems so and I don't. 1250 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't give up all those. 1251 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 2: Picks for for the third quarterback in this CLUBB even 1252 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 2: though I love me, I think, uh, you stay at twelve, 1253 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 2: and I think there's a real chance that Bo Nicks 1254 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:14,280 Speaker 2: is available at your second round pick, or Michael Pennix 1255 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,520 Speaker 2: is available, Like all these guys aren't gonna go like, 1256 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:17,400 Speaker 2: don't force it. 1257 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 3: I I'm with the don't force it, but don't ignore 1258 00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 3: quarterback just because like this concept of we're going to 1259 00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 3: build a team and wait for a quarterly if they 1260 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 3: go four and thirteen, you don't have time for that, 1261 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 3: Like no one has time for that. 1262 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 1: I'm Layton might of anyone, but yeah, I hear it. 1263 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1264 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 3: I feel like the Peyton thing like needs to work 1265 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 3: for like this invincibility shield around him to continue to 1266 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 3: be accurate. And there's it's like the quarterback draft is 1267 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 3: going to allow someone to come down there. I but 1268 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,439 Speaker 3: I I would do it. But if you're saying, may 1269 00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 3: is this potentially player that we've never seen before and 1270 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 3: he's sitting there at three, it's like, then you then 1271 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 3: why would you not trade? Sure, get your first or 1272 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 3: three first round picks. Sure, but if he's that if 1273 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 3: he's that guy you know who knows that's it'll look genius. 1274 00:57:58,720 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 1: But that's fair. 1275 00:57:59,200 --> 00:57:59,760 Speaker 3: I don't know if you. 1276 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 2: Paid your it's also or whoever it would be, would 1277 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 2: have to take that pick. So you need to two 1278 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 2: teams to tangle there. Other Elliott Wolf, the GM in 1279 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 2: practice not in name for the Patriots, said on Thursday, 1280 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 2: we're open for business. We're open for business on pick 1281 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 2: three and everything else. But we're open for business, so 1282 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,640 Speaker 2: I think they'll be listening.

But otherwise, 1315 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 2: you know, when when the Vikings didn't take their pick 1316 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:21,840 Speaker 2: and the other two like ran up to take it 1317 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 2: in three, that was just like an incredible draft. 1318 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 1: We're like, what am I watching the four draft? 1319 01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 2: To me, nothing will top Rivers, Big Ben, Eli Manning. 1320 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: There was a lot of stuff going into their aft. 1321 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 2: But literally as it happened, we all thought they were 1322 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 2: gonna trade and make the trade ultimately that they did make, 1323 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 2: but no one knew for sure. And then the Chargers 1324 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 2: take Eli and he has to hold it up, and 1325 01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 2: there's there's not Twitter at that point, and so it's 1326 01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 2: just like you're living in this total netherworld. 1327 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 1: It was like, Wow, they really took them. 1328 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 2: They're putting the giant's feet to the fire, Like, what 1329 01:00:58,120 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 2: the hell is gonna happen? I guess they're just gonna 1330 01:00:59,880 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 2: keep them, and and he's holding it up and he's 1331 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 2: like not happy about it, and so that like twenty 1332 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,560 Speaker 2: thirty minutes, it was fifteen picks minutes per pick. Then 1333 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,480 Speaker 2: before Rivers and the Eli trade actually happened, and that 1334 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 2: was just so ballsy by their GM. Who it's escaping me. 1335 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 2: Who that was was? Aj Heg Smith, I believe was 1336 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 2: his name, who just sat there, took Eli and just 1337 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 2: waited until the best offer came in and they got 1338 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 2: a great one and then they ended up getting Rivers. 1339 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: So they were both I. 1340 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,680 Speaker 3: Think both those things you mentioned, the best pick by 1341 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 3: the Vikings and in that scenario right there, like they've 1342 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 3: never that's never really happened since that way at all. 1343 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, that was incredible. The Ricky Williams I was 1344 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 2: in New Orleans. 1345 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 3: That was crazy. 1346 01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:41,800 Speaker 2: I was in New Orleans for that draft. That was 1347 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:42,960 Speaker 2: that was when I was in college. 1348 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 3: That that hasn't happened again either. 1349 01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,600 Speaker 2: So now that was a wild thing and that that 1350 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 2: was a rare I think I just wanted the weekend off. 1351 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 2: Right in the postgame, the press conference where he came 1352 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,920 Speaker 2: and showed up in Ricky's dread, wearing Ricky's dreads, it 1353 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 2: was just it was a different time. All Right, We're 1354 01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:02,120 Speaker 2: gonna take one last break and wrap up the mail bag. Next, 1355 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 2: let's go to our next tweet. Oh yeah, you know, 1356 01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 2: I brought this one up last year's Greg hit on 1357 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: Sam Laporta, who is Greg's only fantasy sleeper superstar that 1358 01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,479 Speaker 2: Dynasty Keeper managers need to keep their eye. I still 1359 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 2: want to watch some of these running backs. I can't 1360 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 2: pretend that I have a hot take, and that's usually 1361 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:30,880 Speaker 2: the fantasy thing. But for me, it's Brian Thomas Jr. 1362 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 2: I just I just love me some Brian Thomas Jr. 1363 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:34,720 Speaker 1: Love him like. 1364 01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 2: I just think that he could be up there with 1365 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,280 Speaker 2: those three guys in the end as just this crazy 1366 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 2: explosive year after year, big time wide receiver. 1367 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:44,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. And Chad Ryder, who had on yesterday had him 1368 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 3: falling all the way down to the Bengals. 1369 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of disagreement with him that he 1370 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 2: could that would be on any incredible landing spot that 1371 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 2: would be if he landed there, he would be big 1372 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 2: time players sooner than later. Where on the peace scale? 1373 01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,960 Speaker 2: Our next, sweet ass? I think this is the last one. 1374 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 2: How about that? Cranked?
