This is the Drivetime Podcast. 0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.319 I think I have a solid fifteen eighteen questions here 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:10.080 for Kyle, plus some riffing and follow ups we did 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.640 on this edition of the Drift Time Podcast. So planning 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:14.520 to get to let's not waste any more time and 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:18.040 get to my guest Kyle Crabs and joining me now 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:22.280 on the Drivetime podcast is the grind Father himself, the 0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:25.960 director of scouting at the Draft Network. Locked on Dolphins. Also, 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:29.160 should I say locked on Dolphins? Kyle Crabs? How are you? 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:32.319 My friend? Is that you poking fun at me already? 0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:35.240 And they just got here? Yes, they don't have that 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.720 Pacific Northwest accent to roll with, but it's good to 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:41.240 catch up and talk a little ball, Travis. And I'm 0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:44.320 obviously excited to talk Dolphins and draft and a couple 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:47.400 of my favorite things. So I would love to get 0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:50.560 this thing started or whatever direction we we think that 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:52.320 people are going to enjoy the most. Well, look at 0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:54.200 you take in the high road there on my trash talk. 0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:56.160 It was something I've I've I've asked you about in 0:01:56.200 --> 0:01:57.880 the chat a few times and you probably just blow 0:01:57.920 --> 0:01:59.680 me off. And that's probably the best way I do, 0:01:59.680 --> 0:02:01.960 because just being stupid like I like to be sometimes. 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:03.800 But uh, you know, you mentioned the draft and the 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:06.120 Dolphins and it's a big week this week. Anything going 0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.720 on for you this week? Man? Uh? No, you know, 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:11.000 I might go to bed beev and beyond. We'll see. 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:12.800 I don't know. I don't know if we'll have enough time, 0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.400 but uh yeah, we'll we'll be in uh we'll be 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.919 in Las Vegas with the Draft Network all week and 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.800 we're gonna do some some really cool stuff with some 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.200 of the prospects that are coming through. And obviously we'll 0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.760 have our coverage. Uh this is some video content and 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:29.760 a bunch of written content. We've got a great team 0:02:29.800 --> 0:02:32.880 over there, so we're we're full steam ahead. This is 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:35.359 kind of our super Bowl. We love that this weekend 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:38.160 can be all inclusive for all thirty two teams, even 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:40.520 when you only have four picks and none in the 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.799 first one. And uh, as we heard Chris Crewer talk 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:46.160 a little bit about last week, you know that that 0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.400 depth of process this time of year is is important 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:53.720 for not just now in making these decisions, but you 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:55.160 might get a year or two down the road and 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.280 somebody is available via the waiver wire, or you want 0:02:58.280 --> 0:02:59.960 to make sure you mind your p's and qus dor 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:02.240 I s cross teams. So it's it's a great time 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:04.160 a year for that for all thirty teams. Are you 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:06.200 just proving to me that listen to Drift Time? Since 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:08.280 I told you I haven't cop on Lockdown Dolphins, Like 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.000 I talked about that exact same thing, I think a 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.400 couple episodes ago, So I think that's coming maybe what 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:15.720 you're doing here. Uh no, man, it's it's an interesting point. 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.639 I loved, you know, Chris Greer's press conference last week 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.640 was very very informative, very transparent, and just I like 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.800 the way he told he spoke about certain things, and 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:25.400 that was one of the things that rested out to 0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.360 me was him talking about the value of the picks 0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:28.760 they do have, and you're not just gonna like go 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:31.079 into the draft and say, like we're not just actually 0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:33.960 gonna watch Tyreek Hill highlights. Obviously a joke on his part, 0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.040 but you know, I put this point out there, and 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:37.880 you probably know better than I do because you run 0:03:37.880 --> 0:03:40.320 in more circles across the league than just one team. 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.600 But you know, I've I've heard this from I think 0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:45.440 Move the Sticks talks about it sometimes about the value 0:03:45.560 --> 0:03:48.360 of the depth of your scouting staff and your regional scouts, 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:51.560 your area scouts, and how much really goes into this process. 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:54.560 But just how valuable is the depth of your scouting 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:57.920 staff when you do get into that sixth seventh round 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:01.200 priority U D F A S regularly regular U d 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:04.440 f a s. Those guys become more important at that 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.320 stage of the draft. Maybe more important is the wrong term, 0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:08.880 but they really get their their hands dirty, and that's 0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:10.920 the work that comes out of that is typically that 0:04:10.960 --> 0:04:13.360 part of the draft in my writing that, yeah, I 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:16.080 mean that that's the group that's boots on the ground 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:19.120 right who regionally is going to schools all throughout the 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:21.680 summer and the fall, and you know, you kind of 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:23.920 create a little bit of a relationship with people within 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.160 each one of those respective schools and their buildings to 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:29.520 kind of intimately know the finer details that when you're 0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:31.840 trying to scout. You know, some of these databases are 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.800 starting with like ten tho prospects, and you whittle it 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:37.800 down throughout the course of the summer and then the fall, 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:39.359 and then you get to the start of the winter 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:42.000 and you know, these lists are down around three hundred 0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.280 to fifty and you just continue to whittle it down. 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.840 This whole draft process is largely from a team perspective. 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.479 We're trying to find disqualifiers that we feel like, don't 0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.200 make you somebody we feel safe investing in to bring 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:56.480 into our program. And those people who are in the 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.880 minutia of it all for your late round guys in 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.200 your U d f A s. Yes, they're essential and 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:03.760 they're critical, and especially when you get to the U 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:06.080 d f A portion too, because a lot of times 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.960 you have to If you're a highly prized U d 0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:12.520 f A, you could probably have half the league calling you, right, 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:14.720 and it's you know, what is your what is your 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.800 ability to convince that player to come play for you? 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.680 Is it the most guaranteed money that you can offer 0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:22.680 at signing, which we we've seen teams try to strategize, 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.440 or is it having a good relationship with somebody in 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:28.080 the building that makes you feel like I'm gonna have 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:29.320 a home here and I know I'm going to get 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:31.680 a chance to compete based on what these conversations have been. 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:33.719 So a lot of that sounds almost like a college 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:36.320 recruiting pitch, like you're back into that eighteen year olds 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:38.960 living room talking to mom and dad about the best opportunities. 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.680 That kind of kind of the same idea. Yeah, I 0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.320 think that's it's a great way to present the long 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.200 and the short of it. You know, we we all 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:50.000 we we hit one four o'clock on Saturday, and the 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:52.920 last pick is in and Mr. Irrelevant. They they do 0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:55.120 the quaint thing where the guy goes up with the 0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.440 jersey Mr. Irrelevant and to fifty seven. I think this 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:01.120 year it's like to sixty or whatever, and that you 0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.440 have your pomp and circumstances and I'm like, okay, drafts over, 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:05.600 you turn the TV off. But like it's after the 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:07.640 draft is over for so many of the teams, it's 0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:09.479 like that's when things get really crazy. You know. I 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.480 would expect that to be the case for Miami this year. 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.640 We're only having four picks. You know, you're gonna have 0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.320 a chance to bring in a lot of guys to 0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:22.360 compete for those bottom of the roster spots. Um. And 0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.360 that's something that you can play up as well as 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:29.880 obviously locale state income tax, and you know, the opportunity 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.600 to compete. This is a young team that's coment contending, 0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:34.840 and you can point to the guys like a Nick 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:37.320 need Hum and say, hey, this guy was a U 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.599 d f A. He came in here, he worked already, 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.760 did all the right things, um and here he is 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:44.839 and he's entering into his third season with the team, 0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:48.320 or his fourth season with the team. H and a 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:51.240 chance to to secure yourself a long term future as 0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.520 a member of an NFL franchise. No, that's that's a 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.640 really good point to talk about the previous guys they 0:06:55.640 --> 0:06:56.880 brought in, and you know, you can go back to 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:58.640 Robert Jones last year as a guy that I'm a 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:00.720 big fan of. We've talked about a lot and the 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:02.640 limited snaps he played last year and how he kind 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:04.520 of impressed us with his work there and his potential 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:06.360 to you know, maybe make a push for for a 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.200 job this year on the offensive line. We'll see how 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.320 that works out. But you know, it'll be interesting to 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:11.760 see what the U d f A class looks like 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.040 because you kind of feel like as you go along 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:15.800 and I think that you know, from from the top 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:18.480 down Mr Rosster, Chris Career to to Mike McDaniel and 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.480 those guys have to believe this this roster is as 0:07:21.480 --> 0:07:23.600 far along as it's been during this you know kind 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:27.000 of twenty nine team process of building these put putting 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.360 these resources together, putting these assets together, and ultimately putting 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:31.840 a football team on the field that can go out 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:33.760 there and win a bunch of games and you know, 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:36.120 getting to the postseason and all that fun stuff. So 0:07:36.320 --> 0:07:38.480 it's interesting to start there talking about the back end 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.800 of this draft, and it'll be a big part of 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:43.000 of what our content coverage is here on Drift Time 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.040 in Miami Dolphins dot Com and for Lockdown Dolphins as well, obviously. 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:47.400 But I want to talk a little bit with you, 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:51.840 Kyle about just the general draft because I find myself 0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:54.080 a week out here and I'm doing my Dolphins work 0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:56.520 and I'm getting to work on some future content stuff. 0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:59.520 But I thought to myself today, like I really don't 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:01.680 how haven't paid as a close attention to all these 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.200 mock drafts, all the you know, the buzz is this 0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:05.760 guy is gonna go up and get this guy or 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:08.440 whatever the case may be. Like, I haven't really focused 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.000 as much on that stuff. So I just kind of 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:12.080 wanted to get your take on the top part of 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:14.640 this draft, kind of what you think will define this 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:16.880 year's draft. And you know, I guess just kind of 0:08:16.960 --> 0:08:19.280 riff off of the part of the draft the Dolphins 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.080 are not going to be participating in the first round. 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:26.119 How do you describe it? It's the wild wild West 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.160 this year, I think would be the best way. I mean, 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:30.320 we're we're a week out as of you and me 0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:34.360 sitting down talking about this, and we're we're having meetings 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.480 with our group of td N talking right now about 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.800 how we we wouldn't be surprised to see the guy 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:42.200 who's been the presumptive number one overall pick in the 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:46.960 last three four months, Michigan's defensive end, Aidan Hutchinson, uh 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.000 making it the four and we're I mean, we're we're 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.679 sitting here, Okay, you know, there's some some buzz on 0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:58.120 Trayvon Walker, the defensive end from Georgia potentially usurping hushingson 0:08:58.200 --> 0:09:02.000 and going at one. Obviously Trent Balky, who's who's in 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.880 an executive role there was there in San Francisco and 0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:07.200 the success that they had with Alvin Smith and and 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:10.880 Walker has kind of rare athleticism and an elite length 0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:15.160 versus Hutchinson is more of a high floor but doesn't 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:17.480 have those rare physical skills as length as and as 0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:19.800 notable like if that's something ball, he's gonna hang his 0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:21.640 hat on like he could go one and then you 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:25.600 get to two and we're having the conversation about, Okay, well, 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.280 there's there's Brad Holmes, who's the GM there in Detroit, 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:32.200 And yes, Adan Hutchinson's from Michigan, but Brad Holmes is 0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:34.760 from out West and they just took Penny School last 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:37.160 year and they took COmON Ross St. Brown last year. 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:39.440 They like they had a pretty successful tenure with with 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:42.480 picking pack twell players. Is that gonna push them in 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:45.280 that direction? Or will they go quarterback? And it sounds 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:48.719 like the buzz of Malik Willison, that connection was there 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.760 because of the Senior Bowl has cooled off a little bit. 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:53.559 And then you get to three in Houston and m 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:55.920 will they go corner? Will they go past? It's it's 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:59.640 like every we know so little this year versus your 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:03.400 enter year at this point in the draft process that 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:06.880 it really makes it fascinating, even though I think some 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.320 of the sexy positions on the offensive side of the 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.680 ball that really moved the needle for draft discussion don't 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.920 have their usual spice that they do on a normal year. Yeah, 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.040 that's that's kind of the theme I've got. You talked 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:19.199 about the Draft Network doing big things and expanding. You 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:21.600 guys have made up I think I think you are 0:10:21.720 --> 0:10:24.800 five of ten, so previously it was now batting and 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.800 even five hundred as far as Draft Network employees doing 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:29.959 my my preview shows hearing you guys have absolutely killed 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:31.160 it for us. So a big thank you to you 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:33.440 and your team for getting on that up with us 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.680 and making it happen for us here. But um, you 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:37.679 know I want to play. I want to get to the 0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:39.120 the Dolphins here in just a seconds ahead and take 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:41.240 our first break. Before that first break, though, I have 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.080 a rapid fire game for you. I have not disclosed 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.679 this with you before coming on the show, so I 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:48.920 know you attack my character when we come on, and 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:51.959 attack my my lingo and my my vocabulary. And now 0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:55.240 you're ambushing me with something to make a fool of myself. 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.400 But that's great. Let's go go go ask Damnian and 0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.160 keep how I prepped them. I gave him the entire 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.200 rundown and they were, man, this is awesome. I'm so 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:03.640 ready to go with this. Just I'm just throwing bullets 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:05.080 at Kyle here and he's gonna go ahead and fend 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.040 them off here. So I think you'll do well. This 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:08.560 is a fun game, I trust me. It said's something 0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:10.320 that will get some good education for the fans here. 0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:12.240 So what I'm gonna do is tell you a position 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:14.319 and I want to hear where you think the first 0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:16.200 name comes off the board. You can say top five, 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:18.760 top ten, you can say pick eight, it'll go pick eight, 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.240 it'll be a quarterback there. So each position, I want 0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:22.840 to go down the board and just tell me what 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:24.839 range that first player goes. Does that work for you? 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:32.559 That does work for me? QB Dick, I thought you. 0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:34.360 I thought I lost it there. That was some some 0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:36.920 thought about that well, and I think that might be 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:40.559 a sneaky trade spot two with Carolina. They don't have 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:42.640 any picks. They gave up all their picks. But I 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.480 will say six either via Carolina or via Tree. And 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:49.960 that's Molik Willis. You think probably will not be surprised 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:52.240 to see Pittsburgh come get it. Okay, Yeah, that's been 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:53.760 a lot of buzz on that since the Senior Bowl. 0:11:54.120 --> 0:12:00.760 Running back thirty eight. Wherever Atlanta picks in the early 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:02.880 second round, not first round, then that's that's kind where 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:04.480 I thought you were gonna go. And then who's your 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:05.720 top back in the draft? Who do you like that 0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:08.880 the most? I like Isaiah Spiller from Texas A and 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.440 M the most. I know that that he didn't necessarily 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:13.840 run a great time but listen, neither did Naji Harris 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:17.400 last year. And I'm not saying that that Isaiah Spiller 0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.559 is Naji Harris, but he's somebody who I think does 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.200 really good when he gets out of the mesh point. 0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:27.000 He's pressing the line of scrimmage to anticipate lanes and 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.880 manipulate defenders to create lanes for himself. He just doesn't 0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.319 have four or four speed, but he he checks literally 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.760 every other box. Yeah, he's he's awesome catching the ball 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:37.800 of the backfield too. He's like he just the A 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:39.400 and M offense. A lot of time went through him 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:41.320 last year. He's he's a lot of fun to watch. 0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:45.319 How about wide receiver? I will go ten really Jets, 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.960 because because what I heard someone talk about I came first, Jeremiah. 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:52.559 It was a guest on the podcast talking about, like 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:54.560 just take the receiver at four. I thought you were 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.240 gonna go a lot higher than that. Well, I think 0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:59.480 the I know that they're really dialed in on three 0:12:59.520 --> 0:13:03.800 potential positions, edge, offensive tackle, and wide receiver. I think 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:06.520 the scarcity and and the fact that the Giants picked 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:10.160 twice behind him the Panthers and Seahawks. I mean, I 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.480 think there's enough competition for those other spots that they'll 0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:14.720 probably go trenches first and get and get the I 0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:16.440 think they can still get wide receiver one at ten. 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:23.959 Tight end, uh, sometime outside the top fifty fifty. Yeah, 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:26.200 it's we had fran Duffian and he was talking about 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:27.880 how nice the classes, but how kind of that glut 0:13:27.960 --> 0:13:30.080 might actually push it down a little bit. Yes, which 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:31.600 you agree. If the Dolphins are in the range for 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:32.959 a tight end and looking for it, you could get 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:35.959 a nice value pick there. Uh, let's go offensive tackle. 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:40.400 I will say offensive tackle is five to the Giants. Okay, 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:42.839 so da that's again these positions that keep thinking they're 0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:45.400 gonna go top three might be a heavy edge portion 0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:48.280 of I think we'll go edge, edge corner in the 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:49.800 top three. Well, there's a couple of answers. So I 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.120 want to ask you edge, want to ask your corner, interier, 0:13:52.160 --> 0:13:58.040 your offensive line, interior offensive line. I'll say right now 0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:00.920 fourteen to Baltimore and that they will friendly Bozeman in 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:05.920 free agency. So whether it is Zion Johnson, Kenyan Green, 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.120 I think they've got a couple of options there. Johnson 0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:13.080 showcase some some positional versatility, potentially snap, um, and then 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:15.640 they've got enough lottery tickets. At right tackle. They do 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:19.680 have Jawan James who missed last year. He's still under contract. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.160 He's gonna contend for that right tackle spot. And they'll 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.640 get Ronnie Stanley back as well. Yeah, it makes perfect sense. 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.240 Let's go over to the defensive spot. Uh, Is Jordan 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:29.080 Davis the first tackle off the board? And who do 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:30.840 you where do you see the first defensive tackle going 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.960 off the board. I would not be surprised to see 0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:38.000 it at seventeen or eighteen to the Chargers or Eagles. 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:41.920 And that's Jordan Davis, either Jordan Davis or Davante Wyatt, 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:43.680 a couple of one of the Georgia kids. And no 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:45.680 one's gonna love to hear that. How about the uh? 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:52.400 How about off ball linebacker? This one's tough. Um. It 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.560 depends on I think it depends on how the corner 0:14:54.560 --> 0:14:56.960 group falls. I could see New England taking Devon Lloyd 0:14:56.960 --> 0:15:00.240 at twenty one. Um. You think about Donta high Tower 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:03.680 not renewing his contract thereas of this point in time, 0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:07.000 and and Lloyd showcasing the kind of three down value 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:08.920 that he had last year and making plays in the 0:15:08.920 --> 0:15:11.560 passing game, both as a pressure player and in zone 0:15:11.600 --> 0:15:17.000 coverage underneath. I think that's very much a New England centerpiece, 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:22.160 kind of that quarterback in the defense. UH. Dallas maybe 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:24.440 a sneaky spot depending on what they and if they 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:27.160 want to play Micah Parsons more on the edge Tennessee 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:31.240 at UH. And then I would also point to Detroit 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:33.480 as thirty two is kind of just a team that 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:35.320 needs to get as good of a football player as 0:15:35.360 --> 0:15:36.720 they can. That might be p p A for them 0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:38.760 at thirty two. I know you agree here. I do 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.480 not want to see devn Lloyd in New England. No, No, 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.400 he's a he's a stunt. Yeah, he's he's an absolute stunt. 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:46.440 And stay out of the a FC East in general. Please. 0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.480 And so you ted, you said cornerback at number three 0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:51.800 to Houston. I have to imagine that, sauce. I That's 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:53.680 how I would lean. I think Nick as Serio in 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.160 his background with the Patriots, and you think about how 0:15:56.400 --> 0:16:01.200 they've liked big, long, physical press guys, I think that 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:03.240 makes a lot of sense. And then the last question 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.720 is Kyle Hamilton, the safety. Where does he go? The 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:08.200 big mystery right now? I would point to either eight 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:11.480 to Atlanta or eleven to Washington as my two favorite 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:14.040 landing spots for Kyle Hamilton's possibly the best player in 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:15.680 the draft right is? Where does he rank on your 0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:19.400 big board? He's one for me? Firstly, I know, listen, 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.760 I I know he ran four or five seven, but 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:23.720 Ed Reid ran a four or five eight, I think, 0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:26.560 And I'm not saying Kyle Hamilton's Ed Reid. He's a 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:28.680 very different player. But the big trend in league right 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.080 now is a lot of too high safety looks trying 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.520 to take away explosive place for imposing offenses. And he 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:35.560 can align back there and play downhill and fit the 0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:38.640 run and be an absolute stud in that capacity, and 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:41.720 a lot of his other athletic testing was very explosive. 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:43.920 He just happens to be six four. So yeah, I 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:46.400 think he's He's somebody I'm not gonna get bored with. 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:48.520 He's my my top player. Yeah. Talking about the four 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:50.440 or five, all I could picture was the Jeffy OI 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:53.040 send us of I don't care, I don't care, I 0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:56.520 don't care, I don't good stuff. Let's come back. I'll 0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:57.880 take our first break, come back, and we'll talk to 0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:00.520 Miami Dolphins Draft. Here next on the Drive Too on podcast, 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:02.680 your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Auto Nation. 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:09.040 My guest today Kyle Crabs. All right back here for 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:12.800 the B block, the Dolphins Draft preview edition of the 0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:16.040 Drivetime Podcast. I have who else besides Kyle Crabs have 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:19.160 locked on Dolphins and the Draft Network here talking some draft, 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.240 talking some Dolphins and Kyle before we get into that, 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:23.840 you know, looking at your Twitter profile and seeing your 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:26.159 your banner there with you in the great Joe Marino, 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:29.480 Ricky Williams Man, you got a chance to meet them, 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.199 go tell us about that. What a that was a 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:36.040 bucket list item for me. I'll be completely honest. Now, 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:38.480 I'm not blessed enough to go on the fish Tank 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:41.000 and talk to to Seth and Juice or anything like that. 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:44.399 But yeah, we went out to Los Angeles for the 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:47.200 Super Bowl for a couple of days and uh, Ricky 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:49.359 was there with one of our partners, with Panini, and 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:51.800 he did like a card opening and did a couple 0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:54.159 interviews and one of them that he did with was 0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:57.000 with us and getting to talk to Ricky and catching 0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:59.520 up about like what life has been like after the 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:03.639 NFL and hearing about all of his entrepreneurial ventures that 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:07.520 he is embraced and really tackled with enthusiasm, and then 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:11.040 getting into talking about the running back position and uh, 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:13.720 talking about what traits Ricky would look for if he 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.960 were looking for criteria for running back to draft in 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:20.080 the NFL, and uh, we kind of got him down 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:23.000
