1
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the field.

2
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: Kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

3
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: player for you state a little Steve a blimp. We're

4
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 1: not even in the stragedyre of normalcy here, all right,

5
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: let's rip it up here on a Wednesday, Chris Brown,

6
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you and every time I'm here to

7
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: talk a little small talk. At the top of the show,

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: we have breaking NFL news and a very fast receiver,

9
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: probably the fastest in the entire NFL, is coming to

10
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: the AFC East. Tyree Hill, in case you haven't heard,

11
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: has been traded by the Kansas City Chiefs to the

12
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins in exchange for a first and second and

13
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: fourth round pick this year and a fourth and a

14
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: sixth round pick next year. So a massive draft haul

15
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs who throw Tyreek Hill overboard. After there

16
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: was a stalemate in contract extension talks, he was not

17
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: going to be a free agent. Tell him about the thing,

18
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: the extension he has to sign. So the extension. There

19
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: are two ways to look at this extension. Well, no,

20
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: because some people are calling it three year seventy five million.

21
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: Others are calling it four years, one hundred and twenty million.

22
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: It has avoidable year there at the end, but essentially

23
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: a four year, one hundred twenty million dollar extension with

24
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: seventy two point two million of it guaranteed. He is

25
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: now the highest paid receiver in football, surpassing the deal

26
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: signed by Davante Adams after he was traded to the Raiders.

27
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: So Tyreek Hill is the highest paid receiver in football,

28
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: and that doesn't sound right to me. Tyreek Hill is

29
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: the fastest receiver in football, but in my eyes, he's

30
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: not even close to the best receiver. He is a

31
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: receiver that has given the Bills problems over the last

32
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: few years. There's no debating that he's given just about

33
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: everybody that faces him problems. You have to play him

34
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: a different way because of the speed that he has.

35
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: He's faster than everybody else. He outruns angles. As we

36
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: have said on this show a lot of times, and

37
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: I will say this Steve the first at first Blush.

38
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: I agree with the tweet by Emmanuel Sanders, former Bills receiver,

39
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: who in the wake of this trade said Dolphins might

40
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: have one of the fastest receiving corps in the league,

41
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: or skill position corps in the league, because they have

42
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,519
Speaker 1: DeVante Parku who runs a four to four to five.

43
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: They have Jalen Waddle who runs a four to three seven.

44
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: Now they have Tyreek Hill, who runs a four two nine.

45
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: And they sign Raheem Moster, a free agent away from

46
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: San Francisco, obviously knowing the Mike McDaniel offense, and he

47
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: runs a four to three four. We've talked about adding

48
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: speed to Buffalo's defense since they lost to the Chiefs

49
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 1: again last year, with speed being a major factor in

50
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 1: that game. Now you've got it in your division. Now,

51
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that the Dolphins are going out and

52
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: threatening the Bills for the division title, but speed has

53
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: again raised its ugly head as a problem here for

54
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: the Bills and everybody else defensively in the AFC East.

55
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: So there you go. Yeah, it's yeah. You gotta think

56
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: Dolphins got better, There's no question about it. They signed

57
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: a big left tackle from the Saints, Ron Armstead Armstead

58
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: Aft over the weekend. Their offensive line was a mess

59
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: last year. One guy's not gonna make an enormous difference,

60
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: but he will make a difference, and they're getting better.

61
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill makes them better. There's absolutely no other way

62
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: to slice this. Now, you can say what you want

63
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: about the salary cap they fit him under, and they're

64
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: giving up a ton of draft capital to do it.

65
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: The Chiefs could get really a lot better from this,

66
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: but it's gonna take a while. They're gonna get three

67
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: draft picks this year. I'm sorry, Yeah, three draft picks

68
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: this year, one, one, two, and four. They have three

69
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: picks in the top fifty now and they pine thirty

70
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: and fiftieth this year. Right, so they're gonna get some players.

71
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 1: Whether those guys can jump right in and contributors is another.

72
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: Chiefs have drafted well over the years. They have and

73
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: in case homes Bred, Veach knows what he's doing. So

74
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: the Dolphins got better, no question about it. Now what

75
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: are the what are the Bills gonna do? And how

76
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: does this affect the way they think? Maybe it could

77
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: be the Bills are saying, okay, now, if they got

78
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: all that speed down there, you know, maybe we do.

79
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 1: We have to go corner at twenty five, and we

80
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: have to go corner at fifty two something like that.

81
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it certainly puts a premium on

82
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: doing one of two things. Getting better on the outside

83
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: at covering wide receivers. They've already gotten better up front

84
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: a rushing the passer. What it might come down to

85
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: is this, they're gonna do that, all right, We're gonna

86
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: draft a number one wide receiver again. We're gonna get

87
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: another guy and we're gonna score with him. Let's see

88
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: if they can score with us. Well. I mean, if

89
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: you need a receiver, this is a year to get

90
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: one of the drafts super deep again, and the Chiefs

91
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: will just reload because Patrick mahomes ability will raise the

92
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: level of the receivers on the field with him. We've

93
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: seen that already. Byron Pringle came out of nowhere last

94
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: year and all of a sudden was scoring touchdowns for

95
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: them because he was getting single coverage with all the

96
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: attention on Hill and Kelsey and became a productive wide receiver.

97
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: Now he has been signed away. I think he signed

98
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: with Chicago in free agency, so he's not there anymore.

99
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Robinson just signed with the Raiders. He's not there anymore.

100
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: Those are smaller role players, but the whole thing is flipped.

101
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the only guys that are holdovers that played

102
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: relatively significant roles in the passing game is Kelsey and Hardman, Right,

103
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: that's it, Miles. So they got to reload there, and

104
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: with picks twenty nine, thirty, and fifty they can go

105
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: ahead and do that. In fact, with twenty nine and thirty, Steve,

106
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: they see somebody they like and they want to move

107
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: up the board. They got the ammo to do it. Now. Yeah,

108
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: and here's the thing too, you lose Tyreek Hill off

109
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 1: the cheet now today without all these draft picks that

110
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have acquired. You gotta think, man, the Chiefs

111
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: maybe third in the AFC West now with everything that

112
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: the Broncos, that the Raiders and the Chargers have done

113
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: to get better and chase the Chiefs down. Hard to

114
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: think the Chiefs got better today because today they're not. Today,

115
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: they're not. They may in the future, but they gotta

116
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: wait on the draft and they gotta wait on these

117
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: draft picks to show up and show out. Now they

118
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: also have to fill out their defense. That's right. And

119
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: I'll say this, Miami is gonna jump off jump off

120
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: a fishing boat if Tyreek Hill snaps his ankle week

121
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,559
Speaker 1: one of training camp, or if he pulls a hammy

122
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: or what ever. Because that's he's been pretty durable he has.

123
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: I think the bigger question is off the field. We

124
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: know the off the field trappings of Miami and it's

125
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: often got players in hot water over the years. The

126
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:22,239
Speaker 1: beach is so enticing, and I would not call Tyreek

127
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: Hill a model citizen. He's far from it. So and

128
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: you can google him if you want and find out

129
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: all the details of that. But they better have a

130
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: close eye on Tyreek Hill off the field in Miami.

131
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: But they are a faster offense now significantly with him

132
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: and Waddle, who both runs sub four four. He'll run

133
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: sub four three. And they got the running back Mostard

134
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: who runs a four three four, and he plays And

135
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: it's not just he's fast, he plays fast too. Tyreek

136
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: is as fast as player. He's as fast as players

137
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: you'll ever witness in the NFL. I mean that he

138
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: is fast in a league full of fast, fast guys,

139
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: and he significantly fast by their standards. So he's a

140
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: difference maker. That's why he wanted to be the highest

141
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: paid wide receiver in the league because looking at it

142
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: from his perspective, he's on this team that goes to

143
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: the championship game four straight years, goes to a couple

144
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: of Super Bowls, wins one of them, and he's a

145
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: big reason why. So he's saying, okay, that's time. He

146
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: was already making eighteen and he sees all these guys

147
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: signing these deals. He says, listen, those guys didn't get

148
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: their team to a super Bowl three straight championship games.

149
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: I did pay me, and the Chiefs are gonna bro,

150
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: you're playing with Pat Mahomes. That means a lot. You

151
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: want to walk away from that, you go ahead and

152
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 1: find a trade, go ahead. Well, no, they did accommodate him.

153
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: I mean they were according to reports, they were willing

154
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: to pay him an average annual salary of twenty one

155
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: and a half million a year. That would have made

156
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: him number three in the league, behind only Davantae Adams

157
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: and DeAndre Hopkins. And I think if he asked a

158
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: hundred people of those all receivers, he'd be third every

159
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: single time. That's right, every single time, behind those other two.

160
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: So twenty one and a half million offer per year

161
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: from the Chiefs is beyond fair. In fact, it's more

162
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: than I would pay for him. Because I'm telling you

163
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,839
Speaker 1: and you and I know we're in agreement on this.

164
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: Once his speed drops off a little bit, watch how

165
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: fast his production goes down the tubes too. That is

166
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: his singular major asset. He is not a great route runner.

167
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: He just gets to space faster than people and outruns

168
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: angles after the catch, deadly weapon after the catch there

169
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: is I'm not going to debate that for a second,

170
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: but it's because of his speed. I would take Stefon

171
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: Diggs over Tyreek Hill a hundred times out of a hundred,

172
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 1: not even think about, Yeah, there's there's a handful of

173
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: guys you would do that for. But I'll say this,

174
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: in the context of a team, Tyreek Hill would be

175
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: a difference maker on every single team he landed on.

176
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: The Dolphins are no different. This is a big This

177
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: is a big trade in the NFL five draft picks

178
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: for a guy that tells you all you need to know.

179
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: He was a difference maker in the Bills game in

180
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: the Divisional round this year, and he's going to be

181
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: a difference for the Dolphins at certain top points next year,

182
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: maybe for the entire season as well. Next year gonna

183
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: be a little bit different catching passes from TWA. He's

184
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: not going to be dropping one over your shoulders sixty

185
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: yards down field. That ain't happened. See, that's the thing

186
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,719
Speaker 1: that ain't happening. And there and I get it, there

187
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: are people's a lot. That's a lot of difference in money.

188
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: If he's making thirty million dollars years opposed to twenty

189
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: million dollars, that's ten million dollars. That almost turns your

190
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars salary into tax free money. If he

191
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: stayed with the Chiefs, right, and he's going he's going

192
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: to Florida where there's no state tax, where there's no

193
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 1: state tax. Yeah, that's a lot of extra money. And

194
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: it's a lot. Seventy five million guaranteed. There's seventy two

195
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: million guaranteed guaranteed. Well, it doesn't all of that money

196
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: does not become fully guaranteed until next year, twenty twenty three,

197
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 1: right before the start of the league here, so it's

198
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: not in his pocket yet. I didn't see what the

199
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: signing bonus was, but it'll be interesting to see how

200
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: he handles a new team, a new environment. Andy Reid

201
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: has got a reputation for his players, absolutely loving the guy.

202
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: They play hard for him, and he has the ability

203
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 1: to keep those that ship steered down the road. I mean,

204
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 1: let's face it, they've been through some stuff and Andy

205
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,599
Speaker 1: Reid has been a steadying influence for a lot of

206
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 1: those guys. It'll be interesting to see if Tyreek Hill

207
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: and you know guy and a new head coach Mike

208
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 1: Daniels McDaniel can keep it between the lines. Well, here's

209
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: the thing. I think the way they're gonna have to

210
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: use Hill is on those crossers and rely on his

211
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: run after catchability. That's probably why he was so attractive

212
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: to the Dolphins. They know that, even though he has

213
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: deep speed, that gonna run him on routes like that

214
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 1: because twa can't throw the ball that far. So what

215
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to do is rely on him getting

216
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 1: open on crossing routes and taking it from there sixty

217
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 1: yards after the catch. That's what they're That's what you're

218
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,719
Speaker 1: giving up all this draft ransom. I mean, it's a

219
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: draft ransom, Steve, It's five picks. Yeah, you're doing that

220
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: because you believe you can get Tyreek Hill open on

221
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 1: crossing routes and things like that and have him take

222
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: care of the rest with his elite breakaway speed. That's

223
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: the only way He's going to be a maximum asset

224
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 1: for the Dolphins. It's not gonna be running goal routes

225
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: or anything like that because Tua can't hit a route

226
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: fifty yards downfield. He just doesn't have the arm strength

227
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: to get it there. Yeah, he's got to he's got

228
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: to get it in the air early, and it's got

229
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: to get a lot of air under it, and NFL

230
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: safeties get there in time to knock those passes away.

231
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna be a whole, a brave new

232
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: world for Tyreek Hill in Miami with TWA instead of

233
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes. And it's I don't think this transition will

234
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: be seamless. Okay, yeah, I can sign up for that.

235
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 1: I think Tyreek Hill is going to be in for

236
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: a route awakening, right. The different I mean all he's known.

237
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: He's known one year of Alex Smith or two years

238
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: of Alex Smith, and you know four years of Patrick Mahomes.

239
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,679
Speaker 1: Now you're going to tah who doesn't have the elite

240
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: physical traits that Patrick maholl has. A completely different head coach,

241
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: you know, brand new head coach. He's gonna be walking

242
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: into a locker room that's new and yeah, it's we'll see.

243
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: Um Tho's A lot of questions have to be answered,

244
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: but certainly his ability to help a football team is

245
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: not one of them. Everything else that goes into a

246
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: into a team and all of that stuff is still

247
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: up in the air. You know, the Jets were said

248
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: to be in on Tyreek Hill. They couldn't make it happen.

249
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: The Dolphins five picks for a guy wide out. Yeah,

250
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: but this is a guy that has been instrumental in

251
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: beating the Bills each of the last two years in

252
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: the playoffs. And so maybe the Dolphins say, let's we

253
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: can get that guy him. He'll help us beat the Bills.

254
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: Now he will, I mean he will help him. I

255
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: don't know if it's good enough to beat the Bills.

256
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: He would be enough. You know, you get one big

257
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: play from him a week, it's seven, it's seven on

258
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: the board. So now the Bills have to play him

259
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: twice a year, you know. And I'm not saying he's

260
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 1: a guy that's getting Miami over the hump or anything,

261
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: but they've they've done some nice things here in free

262
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: agency so far. I'll give him. I'll give him full

263
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: marks for that. As much as it pains me to say.

264
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they just signed the best left tackle on

265
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: the market in Toronto Armstead. Protection will be better after

266
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: it was abysmal last year. They signed an underrated corner

267
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: from the Giants, Keyon Crossing, to add some depth there,

268
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: but they're already pretty stocked at the corner position as

269
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: far as coverage goes. Teddy Bridgewater as your backup quarterback

270
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: we think, and then Connor Williams, a guard from Dallas

271
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: who's been a star of the last five years. And

272
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: then they added Cedric Wilson, a receiver from Dallas who's,

273
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: you know, a depth receiver, probably your four year five.

274
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: You gotta think the Bills feel like they got better

275
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: this offseason, no question about it. At this point. Certainly

276
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: they've got question marks that you know, a corner and

277
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: cornerback to you know, tur Dave is coming back. You'd

278
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: think he's gonna come back and come back like his

279
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: old self. Cornerback to Dane Jackson had a lot of

280
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: significant snaps at the end of last year. He's not

281
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: going to be afraid of it. But they don't have

282
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: any depth there, at least not at this point. But

283
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: they got a feel they got better up front on

284
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: both sides of the ball, and Crowder's gonna help him

285
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: in the slot. Gabe Davis was a was a fine

286
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: Isam McKenzie coming back, and they got guys, they got weapons.

287
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: But did the Miami Dolphins with the signing of Tyreek

288
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: Hill turn at thirty five to nothing loss in Week

289
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 1: two last year into a win, I don't know, or

290
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: at twenty six to eleven defeat by the Bills in

291
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: Week eight, I don't know. Closer, Yeah, close the gap,

292
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: close the gap. Yeah, but that's a that's a big gap.

293
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: We'll see. But the Dolphins have to feel really good

294
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: about it today. Now, you know, when those draft picks

295
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: come up and it could have been their guy picking

296
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: and there's a guy there they really would have liked,

297
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: and we'll see, you know, But Tyreek's gonna have to play,

298
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have to play really, really well to

299
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: justify that contract and those draft picks. So, with Tyreek

300
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: Hill the topic of the day league wide, we are

301
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: rolling it into a Bills conversation and we are asking

302
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: you at eight oh three five fifty one, eight eight

303
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 1: five fifty two, five fifty how does Tyreek Hill coming

304
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: to the Dolphins and the division, change the way you

305
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: feel about the Bills chances in the division eight oh three,

306
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: five fifty one eighty eight, five fifty two, five fifty,

307
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: or he can hit us up on the tweet sheet

308
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: at one Bills Live on Twitter. So that is what

309
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: we have to chew on. Got a got a good

310
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: slate in the second hour for you. Coming up second

311
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: hour of the program, we will have the latest on

312
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: the mock Draft watch that appears weekly on Buffalo bills

313
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: dot com between now and the draft, and our colleague

314
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: Matty Glab will carry us through that and what the

315
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 1: draftnicks are saying around the country about what the Bills

316
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: might be thinking about at pick twenty five, so we'll

317
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: go over that with her, and then final half hour

318
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: of the show back for his second stint with the Bills.

319
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: Shack Lawson will be joining us the final half hour

320
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: of the program, and we were inserting his name into

321
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: the welcome back Cotter theme earlier today. Welcome Shack, going Shack,

322
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 1: Welcome Shack, Welcome Shack. We were singing that earlier just

323
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: for fun. Didn't sing it to Shack, but who knows.

324
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: So he'll be joining us in the final half hour

325
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: of the show and we'll kind of talk to him

326
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: about what the last two years have been like, bopping

327
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: around the league, last Cup. Yeah, yeah, he's he's gotta

328
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: like he'll have a lot to say about that. And

329
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: not only is he back with it, we also yesterday

330
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: we were talking, we had to kind of talk around

331
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 1: because we didn't know for sure it was gonna happen.

332
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson and Jamison crowd Are both signed a one

333
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: year deal, so that's official now. We talked about it

334
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: as if it was yesterday. We didn't know if it

335
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 1: would happen or not, but it looked like it was going. Yeah,

336
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 1: it looked like it, but you know, what do we know?

337
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: So certainly it had a few things once in a while.

338
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 1: Case Keenham's you know, and Matt Barkney that's a it's

339
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: pretty strong quarterback room. Yeah, I don't know that any

340
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 1: either Case Keenum or Matt Barkley is the guy that

341
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: Mitch Trubisky was as a player, but certainly Barkley was

342
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: a big mentor for Josh's first stint here with Buffalo,

343
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 1: and Case Keenum has got some chops. Yeah, I don't

344
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:08,440
Speaker 1: think Keenam's far off from Trubisky. Man, I'm getting old.

345
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: I still remember him as a college quarterback. I think

346
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: it was at Houston where they ran the run and shooting.

347
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: He just threw for like eight thousand yards. It was ridiculous.

348
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: He's a player. He has a rapport with Stefan Diggs.

349
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 1: We know that because he had to come in for

350
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: an injured Kirk Cousins when he was up in Minnesota.

351
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: And he's the guy that threw Stefan Diggs that pass

352
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 1: in the Minneapolis Miracle game. So some familiarity there. And

353
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: you heard Brandon Be when he was in studio with

354
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: us earlier this week. Thinks he's a gutsy player that

355
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: you know, gets the job done. So you could have

356
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: done a lot worse than case Keenam as far as

357
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. And yeah, and the Bills have added weapons too.

358
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: And Jamison Crowder might be the most notable of the group.

359
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: Oj Howard is a guy that's kind of looking to

360
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: reclaim his status as a playmaking tight end after injuries

361
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: have kind of curtailed his career production. So we'll see

362
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,120
Speaker 1: what happens there. You're banking on potential. They're more than

363
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: anything else. But yeah, I mean Tyreek Hill kind of

364
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 1: a big deal. Yeah, as we have seen some seismic

365
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: moves in the NFL. That's believable. It's not forget about

366
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks, Adams, Jock, Tyreek Hill, Tyree. I mean, guys

367
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: are going here, there, and everywhere. I mean, it's the

368
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: transient nature, Wilson. The transient nature of big name players

369
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: in this league now that are under contract. It is

370
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: pretty remarkable. I think there's one thing, and we've talked

371
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,239
Speaker 1: about it all the time, and it's the first thing

372
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: I think of when we start talking about these guys moving.

373
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 1: Can they justify the contract with their play on What

374
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: would it look like if they play the way they

375
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: have I've been playing. Is that enough money to get

376
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: the value out of it? Is that too much money?

377
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: And that's what you're looking at. You got to get it.

378
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: Not only do you have to spend wisely, you also

379
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: have to get value. You can't have a guy come

380
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: in and then not play well. That's kind of what

381
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: I'm where I'm at with these new signings. Can that

382
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: guy actually justify that contract? Tyreek Hill for thirty million

383
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: bucks a year? Man ol Man, Now he does change

384
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: it for the defense who's defending him. But does he

385
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: change it tangibly on the scoreboard? Does he mean more wins?

386
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's that's from a wide wide out position.

387
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 1: That's hard to that's hard to leverage that consideration. Yeah,

388
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think they feel it's

389
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 1: a quality player that makes them better and can turn

390
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: to it into a big play quarterback because of what

391
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: he does after the catch. I think that's the most

392
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: alluring factor for the Dolphins because they don't have a

393
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 1: quarterback that can chuck at sixty yards to a receiver

394
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: down the field. Now you've got a receiver, though, that

395
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: can take a ten yard pass sixty more yards for

396
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown. That's got to be the allure there with

397
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: Tyree Hill. I mean, teams were gonna be interested regardless.

398
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a phenomenal physical talent. But to me,

399
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 1: that's the allure. If you're the Dolphins, we got we

400
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: got a quarterback with average arm strength at best. How

401
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 1: do we make him into a big play quarterback? Get

402
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: a guy that can run the rest of the yardage.

403
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: So they got these are the additions from last year.

404
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: This doesn't even this does not even include Jalen Waddle

405
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,160
Speaker 1: and the guys that were there this he got Tyreek Hill,

406
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: tarn Armstead at left tack, left guard, Connor Williams, wide receiver,

407
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: Cedric Wilson, running backs Raheem Mostard and Chase Edmonds, fullback

408
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: alec In Gold and wide receiver, wide receiver Trent Sherfield,

409
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: who's from Sam Fran and knows the offense right. And

410
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: then of course had got you know, they've got Mike

411
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: Gisicki and Jalen Waddle, DeVante Parker, Parker, Preston Williams is

412
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,479
Speaker 1: still they also got Teddy Bridgewater to back him up.

413
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: And you know, so he's gonna have a guy who's

414
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: been around the block. Two is going to have a

415
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: guy who's been around the block helping him out right,

416
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: maybe more so than he hasn't a past. Let's go

417
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: to the phone today three five fifty to see what

418
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 1: you have to say about it, and we lead off

419
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 1: with Mark and West Seneca. Were you have first? Mark,

420
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 1: Good afternoon, gentlemen, How are you good? That's good? Hey?

421
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 1: Uh At the end of this call, because I think

422
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: he'll give you a little bit of trash talking. You're

423
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: you're my favorite reporter in Baffanda Bills, I respect you

424
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: to knowing, but I gotta give you a little bit

425
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: of crap. Okay, go ahead, okay talking to me. The

426
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: way I look at this trade is, uh, there's no

427
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,439
Speaker 1: denying Demand's talent. He is a game changer to a

428
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 1: certain extent, and a lot of what Steve has been

429
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: saying I agree with one hundred percent. But I think

430
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,239
Speaker 1: one of the things we got to remember is, um

431
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: when you play guys, and you play teams twice a

432
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: year and they're in your division, the league historically has

433
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: shown that division teams play each other tougher in a

434
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: lot of instances and on a more regular basis than

435
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: teams that only see players you know once in a while.

436
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,959
Speaker 1: Right now, we've seen we've seen Tyreek you know, a

437
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 1: couple of times in the last couple of years, but

438
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: it's still not the same as playing them twice a year.

439
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: So he puts a little bit more fear in your heart,

440
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,880
Speaker 1: and maybe you'll over set up for him when you're

441
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: game planning and stuff sometimes, which opens up things for

442
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: other players because you're soul prey to that speed. But

443
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: once you get used to playing them, I think the

444
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: Bills are going to be absolutely fine against them, but

445
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: it does put a premium on we got to get

446
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: some dbs in year now, there's no doubt about that.

447
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: I mean, it's put an urgency on. I think it's

448
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 1: pretty much throws up corner is going to be our

449
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 1: first pick. I'd be shocked if it wasn't so. Um,

450
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: you know, And I think I think Andy Reid's got

451
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: uh that Williams at Alabama. I think he's got him targeted,

452
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be the fastest guy in the draft when healthy. Um,

453
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: I gotta in a way they put premium on speed.

454
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: I gotta believe that he's going to be trying to

455
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: move up the board to get that guy now. So

456
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 1: and then saying I want to give you a little

457
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: bit of trash about yeah, Chris, you yeah. And we

458
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: all worried for the longest time that the Bills aren't

459
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: going to do be able to do anything in free

460
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 1: agency other than signed some low level you know, free agents,

461
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 1: and you had to be believing that. And every day

462
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: when I turned you guys on and I hear who

463
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 1: the Bills are looking at and who they've actually signed,

464
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, where is the magician getting the money

465
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: from you know, well, yeah, and to be fair Mark,

466
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: what I thought too, I was saying the same, well, yeah,

467
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: and to be fair Mark, based on the cap room

468
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: they had and the cap room we thought they could

469
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: create with some of the contracts they had existing on

470
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: the roster, even that would not be enough. And I'm

471
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: not going to pretend to be a cap expert, but

472
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,120
Speaker 1: even that, at least from the projections that I had,

473
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: was not enough to sign somebody the caliber of seventeen

474
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 1: million dollars a year pass Rushers. So the numbers in

475
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: front of me said one thing. But then you hear

476
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: Matt Milano's moving money around, Micah Hides moving money around,

477
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: Jordan Poyer's moving money around. I mean, they had upwards

478
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: of a half a dozen guys move money around to

479
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 1: make that happen once they found out Von Miller was available.

480
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 1: That's what changed the conversation. So I'm just giving a

481
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: teasing you all, Oh yeah, that's fine, Oh yeah, you know,

482
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: it's says you know, And I just want to say

483
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: this that for the first three to four years, I've

484
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: been pretty confident. I put my trust in Brandon Bean

485
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: that he is going to do something, and I've always

486
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 1: said he has earned the benefit of the doubt on

487
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 1: how he's going to run this team and what he's

488
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: going to do. But after this season, I just, no

489
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: matter what happens, put my trust when it comes to

490
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: football and Brandon, That's how I feel about it. The

491
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: guy who's just absolutely amazing. And I'm sure Sean mcdermot's

492
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: a big part of that too. I get the impression

493
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: they work hand in hand. So you guys, have a

494
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: great day. Thanks for having me on. All right, A

495
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: good call, Mark, Thanks for it. We'll move along. But yeah,

496
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: he's right, I mean in being we trust right, I mean,

497
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: that's pretty much where it's at. I was joking with

498
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: him the other day, but we're at the NCAA basketball

499
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 1: games and he's at the games up in the club level,

500
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: and they put him on the JumboTron. And you're at

501
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: an NCAA college basketball game, and people are Brandon Bean

502
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: because he had a hell of a week. He had

503
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: a hell of a week. So yeah, stand up and

504
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: clap for that guy. Yeah, it's um, no question. And

505
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: you know it's easy enough to spend Terry Bagoula's money.

506
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: You gotta give him tip your hat. Yes, he's got

507
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 1: a cash flow to put it out there, because it's

508
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: it's paying this money up front. You don't get to

509
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: pay it later. You pay it now so you don't

510
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: have to pay it later. They're restructuring, and they're restructuring

511
00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: and stuff, and but you gotta have the cash flow

512
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: and and have a guy that's willing to sign out,

513
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,959
Speaker 1: and Brandon did. And it's the proof is in the pudding.

514
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,239
Speaker 1: And we have yet to taste that. We'll see when

515
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,119
Speaker 1: they kick off during the regular season, but right now,

516
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 1: all the ingredients looked like they are spot on, and

517
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 1: you got to tip your hat to the run. They're

518
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: they're they're in the midst of Yeah, it's it's been

519
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: a very surprising offseason from the Buffalo Bills all right

520
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 1: back to the phones and to David and Buffalo, what

521
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 1: do you have for us? David? Hey, are you doing

522
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 1: to me? One? You know? The only thing they shock

523
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: flee so much above the entire doing is there, how

524
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: can channel city and persisting the end and get one

525
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: of the best receivers there is. Yeah, look at you know,

526
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 1: you look at him and the tight end for them

527
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: every time they was behind the two to put them

528
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: back in the win to win the game next time.

529
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: I just don't understand, and I don't he making more

530
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: money than my man from Green Bay. I find not

531
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 1: hired to leave one more thing. Hey, have anybody tried

532
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: to see what's up with Delmore? Yeah? Yeah, I don't

533
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: know that the Bills are going to be in a

534
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: position to get Gilmore now, even after the signing of

535
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: von Miller. Brandon pretty much admitted at the press conference

536
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: after that signing that they're not going to be in

537
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: a position to take big swings anymore. They have to

538
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: clear out eight million dollars for their rookie pool out

539
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: a little bit less than that now that they've parted

540
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: with one of their draft choices, but around eight million

541
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: for their rookie pool. They have to have that under

542
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: the cap. And they still have, you know, some other

543
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: holes to fill here now. Granted, only the top fifty

544
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 1: one salaries count against your cap, So we'll have to

545
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: see what they do between now and the draft to

546
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: continue to fill holes on the roster. I'm not saying

547
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: they can't sign you know, a quarter a corner, a

548
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: veteran cornerback on a budget. You know somebody that is

549
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: going to cost a ton of money, kind of similar

550
00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: to what they've done the last couple of years. Josh

551
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: Norman one of year five million, Kevin Johnson one year

552
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 1: four million, somebody in that range. I'm not saying they

553
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: can't do that, but Gilmore is still going to be

554
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: double digits per year cornerback. They're not. They're not paying

555
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: that kind of money. The only chance you've got for

556
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: that is if somebody like us, Steph Gilmore or that

557
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: Ilk comes up and says, hey, what do you give

558
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: me to come play for you for a year and

559
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: they say we got three point five he says, I'll

560
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: take it. I think you're gonna win it, and I

561
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: want to be a part of it. That kind of

562
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,479
Speaker 1: thing could happen because they're all just guys. And if

563
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: he's still sitting out there waiting and he hasn't heard anything,

564
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: if the phone's not ringing off the hook, or if

565
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: he doesn't have an offer as good as that, or

566
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: if he comes to the bills and says, listen, I've

567
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: got an offer here and an offer there, they're exactly

568
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: the same. Can you match it? The bill say yeah,

569
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,240
Speaker 1: we could do that for one year. He may say yes,

570
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: that's the only way that happens in my opinion at

571
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: this point. But the further we wait, the more auntsie

572
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: those guys like that become to really have a job.

573
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: You don't want to get left out in the cold.

574
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: Plenty of veteran corner is still out there right now,

575
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: so we'll see where that lands. As far as you're

576
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: scratching your head about Tyreek Hill, the bottom line was this.

577
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: They were trying to negotiate a contract extension with him.

578
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: They were offering him as much as twenty one and

579
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: a half million a year, which would have made him

580
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: the third highest receiver in the league, behind only Davante

581
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: Adams and DeAndre Hopkins. He balked at it, and they

582
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: were at a stalemate, and at that point in time,

583
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: who knows how acrimonious had got. But the chiefs went

584
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 1: ahead and said, well, try to get a trade. See

585
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: if you had set something up, and if he can,

586
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: by all means more power to you go get your

587
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: money because we can't pay you more than that. And

588
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: they agreed to do that, and they found a trade

589
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: partner rather quickly, took only a few days. I mean

590
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: it just came out today the news and what was afoot.

591
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 1: But basically this had been in the works for a

592
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: few days and there were a number of teams interested,

593
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: but it got reduced down to the Jets and the

594
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: Dolphins as the final two suitors, and the Dolphins were

595
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: able to come to the table with more draft capital

596
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: than the Jets, who were learning now through NFL Networks

597
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: Mike Garafolo, they were not offering their picks at four

598
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: and ten at the top of the draft. They were

599
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: offering their two second round picks at thirty five and

600
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: I think thirty nine. They were not going to offer

601
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 1: two ones the chief for him. The Chiefs now have

602
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: six picks inside the top one hundred and three players

603
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: in this draft, ye three in the top fifty, so

604
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: they've got a lot of draft capital to work with.

605
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: But I think the Chiefs no, deep down, the key

606
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: to their offense is Patrick Mahomes. Is Tyreek Hill a

607
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: huge weapon, Yes he is, But with all the receivers

608
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: in the draft class this year, you watch, they'll just

609
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: reload it and they'll be right back again. I don't

610
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: think they're gonna be maybe at quite the level that

611
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: they've been the last four years. They might not gonna

612
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: be terribly far off. They'll be by the end of

613
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:42,800
Speaker 1: the season. If they can hang in there and get

614
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: it again, they'll be better. Grant Andy Reid will find out,

615
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: He'll get his guys playing better. They'll be peaking at

616
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: the right time, and don't forget. Just like Josh Allen,

617
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes elevates guys around him, those guys are gonna

618
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: play better, just like Aaron Rodgers. You know, Davante Adams,

619
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: he's not gonna have as good a year this year

620
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: as he did last year with Aaron Rodgers. I just

621
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna happen. Not with Derek Carr. They

622
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: did play together in college at Fresno against dental students. Yeah,

623
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: it's been a minute since they did that. So yeah,

624
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 1: I just don't think it's gonna happen. Now. Maybe Josh

625
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: McDaniels can work Wonders and say and be a better

626
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: play caller than Matt Lafleur in Green Bay. We'll see.

627
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: But I just think Davante Adams at best is gonna

628
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: maybe duplicate one of the seasons he had in Green Bay,

629
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: which is pretty good, which is very good, But he's

630
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 1: not gonna get better all right, we have to take

631
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: a break here. When we come back, though, we're gonna

632
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: hear from Bill's newest wide receiver, Jamison Crowder, who is

633
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: going to be addressing the media in a zoom conference call.

634
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: We'll bring that to you next here on One Bill's Live.

635
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: Presenter Boy call out of Health. It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

639
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: wide receiver is answering questions from the media. As I said,

640
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: when I was in New York, you know, had they

641
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 1: had a defense played and they haven't got it on

642
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: the offense side of football. Um, I mean, you know,

643
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 1: it's just I just why it's a great opportunity for me,

644
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 1: um to come in and try to keep sho H.

645
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,960
Speaker 1: What do you think of Josh Allen as a quarterback?

646
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 1: How has it been to watch from afar and watch

647
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: in the same division as him. I mean, obviously you

648
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: know he's he's a dog, you know, Uh, he's watching

649
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 1: the last few years his development obviously from a you know,

650
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: from a from a far like you said, but he's

651
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: a dog, he's a he's a guy that you know,

652
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: can make things happen. Uh, and then most of all me,

653
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,240
Speaker 1: he's a winner. So um, like I said, I'm excited,

654
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 1: you know, saying to uh to get a chance to

655
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,919
Speaker 1: U play alongside him and play alongside the other guys with. Yeah,

656
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: there's quite a few wide receivers on this team, which

657
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 1: is a good thing because Josh needs as many as

658
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:10,839
Speaker 1: he can get. Um, but how do you think your

659
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: skill set fits in the wide receiver room? Oh? I

660
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 1: think that, Um, you know, I'm just one of those guys,

661
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: and then they can come in and be got it

662
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: be dynamic, you know obviously. Uh, you know, like I said,

663
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: just playing us, playing us to do the last few years,

664
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,359
Speaker 1: obviously seeing the assists that called bashad you know from

665
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: the slop position. Um, I feel like I can step

666
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 1: in and they have the same kind of desist and

667
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:42,240

00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: Where are you health wise? Right now and foresee things

672
00:35:55,560 --> 00:36:00,560

679
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,040

Speaker 1: just one of those things where, um, you know, I

681
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 1: was just you know, and in discussion with my agent, Um,

682
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: you know, just kind of waiting waiting to hear from

683
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: you know, from fun some teams and you know, Buffalo

684
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 1: obviously was one that they reached out, and you know,

685
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 1: just you know, I'm just excited that, you know, we

687
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 1: Hey Jamison. Jay Scurski with the Buffalo News. Congratulations. Um.

688
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: You mentioned earlier about seeing the success that Cole had

689
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: in this offense. How closely did you maybe watch his

690
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 1: game and what's similarity these do you maybe uh seeing

691
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 1: your game compared to his, if it's at all Yeah,

692
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: I mean you know I think, Um, obviously, Man, I've

693
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: watched Cole Um for a while, basically out of my career. Um,

694
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: you know, when I was in Washington, he was in Dallas,

695
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: and uh you know, the same year he got to Buffalo,

696
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 1: I went to New York. So we've been in the

697
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 1: same division for all my career. So I'm just watching him, man,

698
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 1: just seeing how he has a feel um in a

699
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: slot for you know, getting open against man coverage and

700
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 1: obviously having that feel to uh, you know, be a

701
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: viable option in his zone coverage. Man. You know, he's

702
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: one of the guys that I've watched closely. Um. That's

703
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 1: like we have a very similar game, obviously, very similar

704
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 1: in stature and um, you know, we just you know,

705
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: make make make make things easy for the quarterback, you

706
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, be able to move the sticks

707
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 1: on third down. Um. Also you know, be able to

708
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: be an option in the red zone. So, like I said,

709
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: I've watched Cole a lot, man, and you know, I'll

710
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,359
Speaker 1: try to obviously you know, many some of my things,

711
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: some of them some of the things, um, from his

712
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: game to my game. So I guess after I can

713
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: step in and be that same kind of option for

714
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: his offense. You when you were a free agent and

715
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: Cole was a free agent when he signed here and

716
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: you signed in New York? Was there any uh did

717
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: the Bills maybe you have any interest at that point?

718
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: Did you did you talk to them at all then?

719
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,360
Speaker 1: Or were you just kind of set on going to

720
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,279
Speaker 1: the Jets then? Well? Yeah, I mean Buffalo, Yeah, they

721
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: had reached out, But you know, I think that at

722
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: that time, I believe that Jets we're only a little

723
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: bit more um, you know, So that's what you know,

724
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: I ended up kind of making a decision to go there.

725
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: But but like I said, man, you know right now

726
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: and I'm just excited to be joining the Bills right now,

727
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: and you know, I can't wait to get to work. Yeah.

728
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: And then lastly for me, you know, you're going from

729
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 1: an offense that has had uncertainty, I guess is the

730
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,879
Speaker 1: best word to use at quarterback. You know, you've gone

731
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 1: through a couple of different guys there, uh, to now

732
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: coming to an offense that is established with one of

733
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks in the NFL. UM, what what was

734
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 1: the process us like kind of in New York not

735
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 1: knowing year to year you know who you're who you're

736
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: going to have at quarterback and the difficulty that that

737
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: can bring for a wide receiver as too opposed to

738
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: now coming to an established, you know, superstar quarterback and

739
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Yeah, I mean it's definitely tough. Um. You know,

740
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 1: it definitely affects the kmaraderie and the chemistry. Um. You

741
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: know that you have to have to go out there

742
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: and be able to perform at a high level on Sunday,

743
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 1: uh knowing, you know, not knowing you know what the

744
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 1: quarterback situation will be. But you know, like you said,

745
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: you know here, uh you know it's established. Um. And

746
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 1: obviously you know Josh she's one of the top quarterbacks

747
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: in the league. And so like I said, and I'm

748
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 1: just I'm just very excited man to be here. And

749
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: I just you know, can't wait to get out there

750
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: and you know, get a chance to meet joshon just

751
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 1: try to help build that chemistry and that commodity. Um.

752
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: Thanks appreciate your time. Appreciate it. Yeah, Jamie said, I

753
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: came out a little bit late. Apologize if you already

754
00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: answered this. Uh, what what does it feel like joining

755
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 1: an offense with so much star power? Obviously everybody knows

756
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, but joining a receiving corps with Stefan d

757
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 1: Eggs and obviously Gabriel Davis, a kid that had that

758
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: big performance against the Chiefs last year. For for a

759
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: veteran like yourself, do you just see all kinds of

760
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: possibilities joining a group like this? Yeah, No, for sure

761
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: I do. Um, you know, it kind of reminds me

762
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: back when I when I first got drafted, um to Washington,

763
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: and I came into a room a guy like you know,

764
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: the son Jackson peered the song Jordan read. Um. You know. Obviously, man,

765
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: the more the more, the more weapons you know that

766
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: that you have around a good quarterback. Um, you know

767
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It only it only advances, you know,

768
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: opportunities for the offense to be you know, to be successful.

769
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: So I definitely see a lot of opportunities, you know,

770
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 1: see a lot of a good that can come out

771
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: of you know, me being able to join the team. So,

772
00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: like I said, and I'm looking forward to it. I

773
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: just can't wait to get out there and learn the

774
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 1: offense and uh and get ready to play. Have you

775
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,320
Speaker 1: been to Buffalo? You have to sign your deal yeah. Yeah, Yeah,

776
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 1: I was in Buffalore yesterday. So yeah, everything everything is uh,

777
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,439
Speaker 1: you know, there's things sit What was your impressions of

778
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,880

00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: is very nice, you know, from the locker room to

00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 1: the weight room, so um, you know all the all

784

785
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 1: beautiful facility. UM. I didn't really get a lot of

786
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: much time to um see the city much, um obviously

787
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: because I was doing physicals and you know, meeting with

788
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,760
Speaker 1: you know, coaches and strength staffs and stuff like that. Um.

789
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: So you know that's that's something that I look forward to,

790

Speaker 1: against the Nashville Predators on Friday, April first. The legendary

804

809
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: game date. Gotta get right back to the phones. So

810
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 1: we got a lot of people waiting to chime in

811
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,880
Speaker 1: on how Tyree Hill impacts the AFC East Race. And

812
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: we go to John and Buffalo next. What do you

813
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: have for us? John? Hey, guys, this smells to me

814
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 1: like desperation. Moved by the Dolphins. I can't believe a

815
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: team that isn't built properly to win right now? Is

816
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: going to give up that many draft picks for a

817
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: receiver who is like one hit away from not playing anymore.

818
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if you realize this that the Miami

819
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 1: Dolphins haven't had a top ten offense since Jim Kelly

820
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: and Tim Marino are playing quarterback. Nineteen ninety five is

821
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 1: the last time they've had a top ten offense, So

822
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: maybe they're looking at it that way. You know, we

823
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 1: can't beat them with our defense against our offense. We

824
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: got to build up our offense, and they went all

825
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 1: in an offense to this offseason. So I'm a big

826
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: fan of both you guys. So like, here, what you

827
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: have to say about that? Yeah, I mean, John, you're

828
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: right that it's a desperate move because they're desperate. They

829
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 1: can't beat the Bills. They can't beat them. They've won

830
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: what if they lost now seven in a row? Here,

831
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: I think it's seven in a row now. They can't

832
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,400
Speaker 1: beat the Bills, and the Bills aren't getting to the

833
00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 1: super Bowl either. That's how far back to Dolphins are.

834
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,320
Speaker 1: The Dolphins haven't even started to think about the Chiefs.

835
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 1: They're not even thinking about, you know, the Baltimore. They're

836
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,399
Speaker 1: thinking about trying to win the division, and they can't

837
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: get by the Bills or the Patriots or the Jets,

838
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: so they gotta you know, Yeah, they're desperate. And the

839
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 1: thing you said as well is a point well taken.

840
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,719
Speaker 1: They are all in on offense. Every team in the

841
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 1: league is all in on offense. It is an offensive league.

842
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,240
Speaker 1: It's a throwing league, and it's a quarterback driven league,

843
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 1: perhaps more so than at any point in history. You

844
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: got Josh Allen, Pat Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady,

845
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow, Matt Ryan, Matt Ryan, Matt Stafford.

846
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: Well he's in the NFC, but you got you got

847
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:50,879
Speaker 1: all these guys. The league is about the quarterback right now,

848
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 1: and you have a quarterback with Noah league traits, so

849
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: you have to try to raise the level of his

850
00:44:55,040 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: game by putting elite weapons on the field. Tyree Hill

851
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 1: is an a lead weapon. There's no debating that. I

852
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: still believe that he is limited as a route runner,

853
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: but there are ways you can utilize him, and I

854
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 1: would I would imagine that Mike McDaniel sees Tyreek Hill

855
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 1: as his version of Deebo. Samuel Now I don't know

856
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:17,799
Speaker 1: that he's gonna be able to do everything that Deebo

857
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 1: Samuel does, but he has been used in those ways

858
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,439
Speaker 1: before by the Chiefs, and I think Mike McDaniel sees

859
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: a multi purpose weapon that he can incorporate into this offense.

860
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: Think about this, You think about those teams, all the

861
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 1: teams like like the Bills, the Chiefs, the Chargers, the Packers, Singles,

862
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: the Bengals. The best player on their team is the

863
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: same guy on the Dolphins. It may be Tyreek Hill

864
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: right now, and that doesn't stack up with the best

865
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: teams in the league. Right Let's get back to the

866
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 1: phones and we go to Bob and cheek towagan xs.

867
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: We got first, Bob Hi, guys, I know this sounds crazy,

868
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,439
Speaker 1: but I'm kind of thrilled. And yes, I know how

869
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:06,600
Speaker 1: good Hell is. My biggest fair was Okay, we gotta

870
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: get by the Chiefs every year. My Homes is a

871
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 1: phenomenal quarterback. Killen is the kind of quarterback that can

872
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: get the ball on a Hill. I don't think Tua is.

873
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm not smacking on the guy, but the way Hill

874
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: runs his tanterns, you know, my homes is running around

875
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: he was getting the fall to him, he would come

876
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:29,439
Speaker 1: back for him. I don't think Miami has yet. I'm

877
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 1: feeling really good. I'm looking at Kansas City right now.

878
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: It's gonna We got him now, guys, I'm telling you,

879
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: and and I'm not worried about it. I know he's

880
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,760
Speaker 1: a great, great wide receiver. Bob, you guys, a receiver

881
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 1: ron quarterback. Don't worry, guys. We got it. That's all

882
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 1: I want to say. Yeah, okay, Bob. The logic theory

883
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 1: says is this with the Tyreek Hill departure from Kansas City,

884
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 1: Kansas City, we got Kansas City. Now they've been weakened.

885
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,719
Speaker 1: They've been weakened. We were good to get them last

886
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: year and they came up thirteen seconds short and all

887
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: of that. We were offensively good enough to get them

888
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:06,919
Speaker 1: last year. They had a play, they made a couple

889
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: of plays, they beat them, and they won the coin flip. Okay,

890
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 1: but now they're not that. We were better than the Chiefs. Now,

891
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 1: the Dolphins got better, but they ain't that good. So

892
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 1: the Bills actually come out winning this trade in the

893
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: big picture, because they're now they do become better than

894
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Dolphins aren't yet good enough to

895
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: beat them. Yeah, and the others to logic. The other

896
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 1: part of that, too is TWOA is not going to

897
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 1: be able. I mean, even with some of the best scheming,

898
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 1: TWOA is not gonna be able to maximize Tyreek Hill

899
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: the same way that Patrick Mahomes maximized Tyreek Hill. I

900
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: think that's reasonable to assume if they can. Mike McDaniel's

901
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 1: a genius. We go back to the phones into Rick

902
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: all the way out in California. I got first Rick,

903
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: Hey you did, mister DASKI, mister Brownie, how are you

904
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 1: guys doing doing well? What you got for us? Good? Well,

905
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 1: I got a couple of things for you guys. I

906
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 1: got an overall time suggestion. But before we get to that,

907
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: I just want to say, with the move with Tyreek Hill,

908
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 1: that does not bug me in the least because he

909
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,879
Speaker 1: is now the face of the franchise and I think

910
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: the Bills can cover that area every which way from Sunday.

911
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 1: But that being said, I really hope we don't turn

912
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,160
Speaker 1: to a free agent, you know, like Stefan Gilmore, with

913
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 1: all the crap talking he's talked, you know about Buffalo

914
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: over the years. I really hope we don't get him anyway,

915
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: but I really hope we spend our resources in the draft,

916
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: hopefully number twenty five, or even move up a couple

917
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 1: of spots if we have to to get the number

918
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: one corner going so far, because with all of the

919
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: elite quarterbacks now in the AFC, I believe we're just

920
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: gonna have to worry about that. So you know what,

921
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 1: Tradevius White. You know, we have him, thank god, but

922
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: if we get another Tradevius White with the tandem safeties

923
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: that we have, that'll put all those warriors the rest

924
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: in my opinion, what do you think about that? Yeah,

925
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 1: I mean I don't necessarily disagree, but I think if

926
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 1: you want to get up and get the top corner,

927
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,479
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to get up into the top twelve picks.

928
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 1: And I don't see Brandon being in that kind of

929
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,440
Speaker 1: a move. Rick Sauce Gardner is going to go in

930
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 1: the top twelve choices in all likelihood. Then you have

931
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 1: Derek Stingley, and then you have Trent McDuffie, the kid

932
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 1: from Washington. I don't know if any of those three

933
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 1: are getting down to twenty five, but if McDuffie slips

934
00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: as far as twenty maybe you pick up the phone

935
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: and call Mike Tomlin and say, hey, you want to

936
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,240
Speaker 1: slide back to twenty five. We're coming up to twenty

937
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: but they need a corner two. So after those top

938
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 1: three corners, there's a drop off in terms of consistency,

939
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:35,840
Speaker 1: in terms of versatility, there's there are concerns there after

940
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: the top three. So if the Bills want to get

941
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: one of the top three, what are they willing to

942
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 1: do to do that? Otherwise do they go in another

943
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: direction at twenty five because the value doesn't fit. That's

944
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: a real question that we're gonna have to ask there.

945
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 1: I know Steve and I were knocking this around earlier.

946
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: We wouldn't be surprised if there is a veteran budgetary

947
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: signing a corner as they've done in years passed, with

948
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 1: the likes of Josh Gordon, the likes of Kevin Johnson, E. J. Gaines.

949
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: They're going to draft a corner somewhere. How early is

950
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 1: the question, And the value has to fit. You don't

951
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 1: draft a corner because you need a corner. You draft

952
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: a corner if the value fits. That's how Brandon being

953
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,440
Speaker 1: operated right, And I think that's what the case will

954
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: be as well, and it will have to add that

955
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:22,480
Speaker 1: up to in a month because as we've seen over

956
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, the landscape around the league can

957
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: change really dramatically. For all we know, the Bills may

958
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: sign three guys before the draft at corner, so I know.

959
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna rule any plenty of time before

960
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: the plenty of time. But as it sits, and we're

961
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,360
Speaker 1: all talking as it sits today, I agree, get the

962
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: best corner on the board and run with it. We

963
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 1: have to take a break here. When we come back,

964
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 1: our good friend Maddy glab is going to join us.

965
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,919
Speaker 1: Speaking of the draft, we'll be discussing a little bit

966
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: of the latest mock drafts as she presents us the

967
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,399
Speaker 1: Mock Draft Watch, appearing now on Buffalo bills dot com

968
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 1: on a weekly ba. He says, see what the draft

969
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,759
Speaker 1: knicks are saying about Pick twenty five that's coming up

970
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 1: next here on One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health.

971
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio at a Steve Tasker who has

972
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: been all over the fields. Kind of unique. He was

973
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 1: kind of a dual role player for you, Steve, Steve

974
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: a blimp. We're not even in the strated here of

975
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:43,359
Speaker 1: normalcy here, all right, welcome to our number two Chris Brown,

976
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker with you. Please to be joined now by

977
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:50,439
Speaker 1: our colleague, Bills media reporter multimedia reporter Mandy Glab who's

978
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 1: already hot on the trail of the mock draft watches.

979
00:51:55,360 --> 00:52:00,480
Speaker 1: She's compiling any and all people that have an Internet

980
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,359
Speaker 1: outlet and want to make a pick in the draft,

981
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: scouring cyberspace, and today you can take all those mock

982
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: drafts and go, oh, come on, Tyreek you think do

983
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 1: you think the Tyreek Hill is going to change things? Now?

984
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 1: I mean, well, Miami, because now Chiefs got extra picks

985
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,840
Speaker 1: and stuff. Now the mocks all we're only doing the

986
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 1: first round number one, which has changed again, well it has,

987
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: but they're picking both picks are behind the Bills, so

988
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 1: unless they decided to get sneaky, they're picking a twenty nine.

989
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,360
Speaker 1: Because this is there's a lot of layers of this.

990
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 1: But I don't want to get off on. I don't

991
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: want to go down on the wheeze before we get

992
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 1: to your pick. No, no, I want to We'll do

993
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: that later. But the mock draft, now, what are we

994
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: looking at now, what do people see in the Bill's roster.

995
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: I would say it's probably a lot like what we're

996
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: talking about. Yeah, so, I mean after the Bill's got

997
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 1: Von Miller, the mock draft started to change to a

998
00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 1: lot of cornerbacks and wide receivers from what we're seeing

999
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,080
Speaker 1: seeing at number twenty five, and not like that wasn't

1000
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: what it was from the beginning. It was cornerbacks, wide receivers,

1001
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: and a mixed defensive lineman some offensive linemen in there

1002
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 1: as well, But now you're seeing a lot more cornerbacks

1003
00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 1: being mocked to the Buffalo Bills and wide receivers at

1004
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:18,480
Speaker 1: that number twenty five spot. Our latest edition is the

1005
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 1: fourth edition of the mock Draft. Watch will do several

1006
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,400
Speaker 1: more of these before the draft at the end of April.

1007
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:29,319
Speaker 1: And this one had twenty two different mock drafts in it,

1008
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,959
Speaker 1: and of those twenty two, seven wide receivers were mocked

1009
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 1: to the Buffalo Bills. Ten cornerbacks, so cornerback is number one,

1010
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:41,319
Speaker 1: and then you had two linebackers, one offensive lineman, one

1011
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,399
Speaker 1: defensive lineman, and one running back. I will be very

1012
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 1: interested to see the next mock draft, yes five point,

1013
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:51,239
Speaker 1: because that will be after the Jamison Crowder signing, right,

1014
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,760
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering if the Crowder signing run packs those

1015
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 1: people that were leaning receiver in round one. I'm not

1016
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,600
Speaker 1: saying the Bills won't draft one, but in round one

1017
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 1: maybe it's less of a consideration because of the Crowder edition.

1018
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,320
Speaker 1: Of course, I don't even know if Beasley was clipped

1019
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,319
Speaker 1: by the time they were doing all these things too,

1020
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: But still in all I think Crowder could impact some

1021
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,239
Speaker 1: of those decisions. The one that's most interesting to me

1022
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: is a linebacker, which I think is a very sneaky

1023
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 1: positional need that's kind of flown under the radar for

1024
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,600
Speaker 1: the Bills. And I say that from this perspective. Tremaine

1025
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:30,399
Speaker 1: Edmonds is in a contract year here, and there are

1026
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,520
Speaker 1: a lot of other big contracts that the Bills are

1027
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,000
Speaker 1: going to have on their plate and their front burner

1028
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: come next year. Dawson Knox, Okay, what are you doing

1029
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:42,640
Speaker 1: with Devin Singletary? Are you going to extend him a year?

1030
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,239
Speaker 1: Are you going to say thanks for coming and just

1031
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: get another running back? There are a lot of players

1032
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 1: in that range along with Tremaine. It's not just Tremaine.

1033
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:56,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it's other guys, so I wonder if they

1034
00:54:56,239 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 1: try to account for covering all their bases. I'm not

1035
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 1: saying that's a first round pick, it's just interesting that

1036
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,080
Speaker 1: linebacker came up a couple. Yeah, we have tracked, or

1037
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,799
Speaker 1: I have tracked seventy five mock drafts so far, and

1038
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,360
Speaker 1: of the seventy five I just counted it up, only

1039
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 1: three linebackers have been mocked to the Bills at the

1040
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 1: number twenty five spots. So definitely not something popular, but

1041
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 1: like you said, maybe something to address in the later

1042
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,160
Speaker 1: rounds two, three, four, five. It has become not one

1043
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 1: of the money positions. You know, it's not a white out,

1044
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 1: it's not a corner, it's not an edge rusher, it's

1045
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 1: not a quarterback, and it's not a left tackle. Those

1046
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:35,440
Speaker 1: are the money's positions that people are looking at the

1047
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 1: draft high and get those physical trades linebackers again. You know,

1048
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 1: all you need a guy with some instinct you know,

1049
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,880
Speaker 1: a size, some physical traits and instincts. Everything else falls

1050
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,400
Speaker 1: into place, and that's why you feel like you can

1051
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,520
Speaker 1: get those guys somewhere outside the first round. Yeah, unless

1052
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:52,719
Speaker 1: we're talking about some freakish athletic linebacker who can also

1053
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:54,920
Speaker 1: be a box safety X y Z. Some of the

1054
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 1: guys that you've seen got of the draft way higher

1055
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: than what their position tells them. Okay, so let's start

1056
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: with Trent McDuffie at Washington. You know, he's got a

1057
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 1: teammate there, Kyler Gordon, who isn't too shabby either, although

1058
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,560
Speaker 1: he didn't test very well and that's now raising red

1059
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 1: flags and sending people back to the tape. But Trent

1060
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 1: mcduffey considered the third best corner in the draft, and

1061
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,440
Speaker 1: my concern here, Maddie, is that he doesn't get to

1062
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: the Bills at twenty five, because that's what I'm thinking,

1063
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,799
Speaker 1: because after him, that's where the dropoff starts. So if

1064
00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 1: you're one of those teams in front of the Bills

1065
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 1: that needs a corner like Pittsburgh at twenty and the

1066
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 1: other two corners are already off the board, it's not

1067
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 1: going to take long for that third guy to go.

1068
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: If there is the drop off that everybody is in

1069
00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 1: agreement on after the top three, yeah, I mean you

1070
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 1: talked about Sauce Gardner in the previous segment, and then

1071
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:50,720
Speaker 1: there's there Derek Stingley, and you know there's not many guys.

1072
00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: Underneath those two guys, Trent McDuffie is right there. There

1073
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 1: you go, Gardner Stingley McDuffie. I don't know if mcduffey's

1074
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,920
Speaker 1: gonna make it to number twenty five, but if he does,

1075
00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 1: he would be a solid option for the Bills if

1076
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,480
Speaker 1: they're still looking for a cornerback. This kid is a junior.

1077
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 1: He's five eleven, one hundred and ninety three pounds, so

1078
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: sometimes he gets docked for his size. Based on what

1079
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,840
Speaker 1: I've read, he's played in twenty eight games as a

1080
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: three year starter. He looks like a senior to me

1081
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 1: when you watch him on tape, because he kind of

1082
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,200
Speaker 1: has everything you need in a package four cornerback. He

1083
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 1: ran a four four at his at the Combine. I

1084
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: can't remember if Prota or the Combine, but when you

1085
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 1: turn on the tape, I see a good sound tackler,

1086
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: someone who can make tackles in space. He provides good

1087
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: help to the defense and run coverage. He's a high

1088
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 1: level route runner with receivers. He really hugs receivers when

1089
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: you see him break into route running. I think he

1090
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,320
Speaker 1: has some burst and quickness to him. He plays aggressive,

1091
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,560
Speaker 1: but he's not overly aggressive where he's jumping routes, he

1092
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:52,160
Speaker 1: can bait guys. He moves well and is just like

1093
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 1: a sound technician from what I've seen and per pff

1094
00:57:56,080 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: this stat is insane. He allowed sixteen catches on two

1095
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety six total passing snaps in two thousand

1096
00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 1: and twenty one. NFL Network grades him as a year

1097
00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: one starter and says that he can play outside or

1098
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:14,200
Speaker 1: from the slot. That's big. Yeah, that you know, those

1099
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 1: numbers jump out at even even at that level where

1100
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 1: you're not you know, you're not guarden guys like I mean,

1101
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 1: if you're sure he's not getting I know, but he's stuff. Dang,

1102
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:28,160
Speaker 1: that's a downer, yeah, I mean, but you never never know.

1103
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 1: Here's what to watch for. If a guy like Trent

1104
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:32,760
Speaker 1: McDuffie is gonna drop to twenty five out of the

1105
00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 1: top fifteen to twenty, it means this there's gonna be

1106
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 1: and this is what you watch for. And I always

1107
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 1: watched for it. In those top ten to fifteen picks

1108
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 1: in the draft, somebody was going, oh he was draft.

1109
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 1: He was like a guy like McDuffie taken in the

1110
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 1: top five. That kind of thing. If there's a ton

1111
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 1: of guys at other other spots who are taken way

1112
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:55,960
Speaker 1: too high in that top fifteen. Surprise picks is what

1113
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. That that means guys like Duffy who

1114
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 1: are value you there go down one. Every time there's

1115
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 1: a player picked out of the turn, those guys all

1116
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: get clicked down one pick, and then another guy gets

1117
00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 1: clicked down one pick, and then there's a couple of

1118
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 1: stretch of teams that don't need a corner, and then

1119
00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: somebody else takes one that's out of turn, and all

1120
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 1: of a sudden, a guy like Trent McDuffie could drop

1121
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: five picks. Maybe maybe, But that's what you're talking about.

1122
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,080
Speaker 1: I mean, that's and he's listened like what sixteen on

1123
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 1: the chart, you know, he's like the sixteenth best player

1124
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 1: coming out. But he has been the favorite in this

1125
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 1: mock draft watch, which I think is interesting. His name

1126
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 1: showed up time after time again, so people think, at

1127
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:39,480
Speaker 1: least right now, he could go at number twenty five.

1128
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: But based on what I just said, based on what

1129
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 1: you guys would probably think when watching his tape, this

1130
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,120
Speaker 1: is a really good corner. Yeah, yeah. And the thing

1131
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: I like about him is he plays physical, but he

1132
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 1: doesn't draw flags because you got a lot of You

1133
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 1: got a couple of corners in this draft that play

1134
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:57,200
Speaker 1: a physical style, but there's flags all over the place.

1135
00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 1: Kier Elam is an example of that, and he's considered

1136
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 1: a late first round prospect. But that guy draws flags left,

1137
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,880
Speaker 1: right and center, and that throws up a red flag

1138
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 1: for team. Sometimes it's like, well, can you channel that

1139
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 1: physical style in such a way where you're not drawing

1140
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 1: flags all the time, And that's a concern sometimes. All right,

1141
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:20,440
Speaker 1: Andrew Booth is another guy that figures to be around

1142
01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: this area. Did not have a super productive senior year

1143
01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 1: though no due in part to people, I guess not

1144
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 1: targeting him quite as much. But still in all you

1145
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: want to kind of see him finish on a high note.

1146
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 1: We didn't see that. Yeah, So Andrew Booth could be

1147
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: an option available at number twenty five. I think he

1148
01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,240
Speaker 1: will go later than Trent mcduffey. He played in thirty

1149
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: five games. He's a junior. He's six feets a little

1150
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,920
Speaker 1: bit taller, one ninety four one pound heavier than Trent mcduffey.

1151
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 1: In his career, he has sixty eight total tackles, five

1152
01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 1: and a half TFLs, fourteen passes defense, and five interceptions.

1153
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: He has a couple more interceptions than Trent mcduffey. This

1154
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 1: guy has good hands and awareness. He has a one

1155
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 1: handed interception on When you turn on his tape, it

1156
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 1: is like a highlight reel. It's insane. So he's the

1157
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:07,360
Speaker 1: type of guy who comes flying out of nowhere to

1158
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: make tackles when people throw up fifty fifty balls, Like,

1159
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 1: do not throw a fifty fifty ball toward this guy

1160
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:17,040
Speaker 1: because there's a good chance that's going to get intercepted.

1161
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 1: He's really good at tracking the ball. He has some

1162
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:21,959
Speaker 1: power in his punch and you can see that kind

1163
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 1: of like ball hawk mentality and a player like him.

1164
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 1: NFL Network grades him as a starter within the first

1165
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 1: two seasons and says he's a press his own combo

1166
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 1: corner who is more effective off coverage. Underneath is this

1167
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: is one of those guys, Brownie that would be a

1168
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 1: perfect fit for Buffalo because he's got an he's got

1169
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: the ceiling. I mean, he's like off the charts potential,

1170
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 1: and with this coaching staff and their ability to get

1171
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,800
Speaker 1: that out of guys, he could be one of those

1172
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,200
Speaker 1: guys that how is this guy? How is this guy

1173
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 1: the third corner taken or the fourth corner, the fifth

1174
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 1: corner taken? He's got the physical ability. To me, he's

1175
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: got those abilities that he could be the best guy

1176
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:06,200
Speaker 1: out there. The reason I think they're saying that he's

1177
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:09,880
Speaker 1: not gonna be like a year one starter instead of

1178
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: a first year for second year starter is the intangible stuff.

1179
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 1: This guy has got all the physical tools. Yeah, and

1180
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: again this is what you look at the corners that

1181
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 1: they take. They take corners that aren't afraid to stick

1182
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 1: their nose in some dirty areas. Yeah, you know, and

1183
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,920
Speaker 1: that's not just out on the edge the edge of

1184
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: the formation run support. I mean, you better be a

1185
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 1: good run support player as a cornerback in this system,

1186
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: or they don't watch you. So you don't stick your

1187
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: head in the dirty areas. You're not gonna play here.

1188
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:43,240
Speaker 1: Very You watch him on film and you get you say,

1189
01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 1: there's one of those guys there's they look thirsty to

1190
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 1: make a tackle. Well, yeah, do they tackle like Taron Johnson? Yeah?

1191
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 1: Like that's how you that's what you should look when

1192
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,000
Speaker 1: you're looking at corners, say, is this guy tackle like

1193
01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,080
Speaker 1: Taron Johnson? Is he aggressive like him. Is he not

1194
01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 1: afraid to stick his nose in the dirty area? Is

1195
01:02:57,160 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 1: he not afraid to take on a big fullback or

1196
01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:01,160
Speaker 1: a running back? Right? And if you say, if you

1197
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 1: check all those boxes, it's probably a guy that fits.

1198
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 1: But this, Yeah, I like Andrew Booth because of his traits.

1199
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 1: All right, So last one, Matty, just to give the

1200
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:14,680
Speaker 1: people that are pining for a wide receiver in Bill's nation, here,

1201
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 1: let's go and look at Treylon Burks, who was mocked

1202
01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:20,080
Speaker 1: to the Bills a few times. Yeah, so here's a

1203
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 1: little taste of some of the wide receivers who are available.

1204
01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: I mean, we've already talked about Jamison Crowder, so Burkes

1205
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 1: is another guy who could go around number twenty five.

1206
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 1: He went to Arkansas. I think one of the cool

1207
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,840
Speaker 1: things about him is that he chose to stay home

1208
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 1: and go to Arkansas instead of go to colleges like Clemson,

1209
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 1: Michigan some other big schools. So I just like that.

1210
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 1: And a guy he's a junior. He's six two, two

1211
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 1: hundred twenty five pounds. So this is your big wide

1212
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 1: receiver who is a big play threat. He played in

1213
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 1: thirty two games in college last year, he had sixty

1214
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:55,360
Speaker 1: six catches for over a thousand receiving yards, eleven touchdowns

1215
01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 1: average sixteen points seven yards per catch. Also had one

1216
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:01,440
Speaker 1: hundred twelve rushing yards on the ground, and in his

1217
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:05,400
Speaker 1: career he had about twenty four hundred receiving yards, one

1218
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 1: hundred forty six catches and eighteen touchdowns. So this guy

1219
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 1: has reliable hands. Because of his size, his hands are huge.

1220
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,840
Speaker 1: He's I think he has a little bit of speed

1221
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,360
Speaker 1: to him. I know he didn't test well on speed,

1222
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 1: and I know people are saying he's not as quick,

1223
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,440
Speaker 1: but I think for his size he has decent speed.

1224
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 1: But what sticks out I think for his size is

1225
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 1: his route running ability is very smooth. He's powerful because

1226
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 1: he's a bigger wide receiver, and he's going to be

1227
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:36,680
Speaker 1: an immediate mismatch because of his size. NFL network grades

1228
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 1: him as a boom or bust potential, and he's a

1229
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 1: versatile wide receiver when you look at his tape, who

1230
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:44,760
Speaker 1: can line up in a bunch of different ways. So

1231
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,120
Speaker 1: I like that Arkansas used him in that way because

1232
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 1: he'll definitely be used in that way in the NFL.

1233
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,160
Speaker 1: Hely knock that I've seen on him is that he

1234
01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 1: doesn't get the consistent separation because they say, oh, he's

1235
01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:58,440
Speaker 1: great on contested balls. But then some teams also look

1236
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,720
Speaker 1: at that as a negative. They say, too many of

1237
01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:04,600
Speaker 1: his catches are contested because he's not getting the consistent separation.

1238
01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:07,400
Speaker 1: But because he's so big in college, he's able to

1239
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:09,280
Speaker 1: come down with those. Will he be able to come

1240
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: down with as many in the NFL, knowing it'll be

1241
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,600
Speaker 1: even harder for him to get separation at this level.

1242
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:18,080
Speaker 1: That's like the projection part of the scouting that people

1243
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:19,960
Speaker 1: wonder about. And I think one of the reasons if

1244
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 1: if you didn't talking about twenty five, I don't know

1245
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: that Burke's if it depends on who's available, and I

1246
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:28,920
Speaker 1: don't know he'd be he would be the best option

1247
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 1: of the guys that are available at twenty five. But

1248
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:33,000
Speaker 1: you're talking about all the guys we're talking about it.

1249
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,440
Speaker 1: Steve likes Jamison Williams even though he's got the ACL right,

1250
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:40,160
Speaker 1: Jamison Williams I think has a bigger upside. Yeah. I

1251
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:45,040
Speaker 1: like John Dotson as well. So if you know any

1252
01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 1: of those three are going to help you. But man,

1253
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 1: oh man, I think it just comes down to what

1254
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 1: are you looking for and what are his skill sets?

1255
01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 1: But like I said, I like Jamison Williams better than

1256
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 1: maybe most of the guys on the list once he

1257
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,360
Speaker 1: comes back into one hundred percent, but he's not so Maddie.

1258
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: Are the mocks weekly on Buffalo bills dot com? Bi weekly?

1259
01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 1: Just refreshing pretty much bi weekly. So we've had four

1260
01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 1: and I think last year we maybe had around ten

1261
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 1: that came out to ten, so we're gonna have at

1262
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:18,240
Speaker 1: least eight. I could believe. It's just really a convenient

1263
01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:20,920
Speaker 1: way for you, as a fan of the draft end

1264
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,160
Speaker 1: of the bills for that matter, to just get a

1265
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:27,400
Speaker 1: one stop shop for what everybody is thinking about the bills.

1266
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:29,720
Speaker 1: And it gives you a menu. You know, the five

1267
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 1: thousand kids coming out of college all you need. This

1268
01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 1: gives you a menu to go out and check out

1269
01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 1: the ones you're like at the It gives you a quick,

1270
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,680
Speaker 1: a shorter menu. And one of the things that's really

1271
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 1: fun to think about, Brinie, we're talking about just before

1272
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:45,560
Speaker 1: we came on the air, I sense there's going to

1273
01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:48,320
Speaker 1: be some movement in the first round with trades. Trades

1274
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,440
Speaker 1: for teams that are jumping up and jumping ahead of

1275
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:54,560
Speaker 1: people to get guys. Eight teams in the National Football

1276
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:58,320
Speaker 1: League don't have a first round draft pick. Eight of them.

1277
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:03,560
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles have three first round picks, the Jets have too,

1278
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:06,480
Speaker 1: the Giants have two. There's a ton of Chiefs. Two

1279
01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 1: Chiefs have two now. So there's a ton of ammunition

1280
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 1: out there for teams to jump up and get a guy,

1281
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 1: and particularly for teams that are in a spot where hey,

1282
01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 1: we may you know, we're one guy away or something

1283
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 1: like that, or we need more picks. Take our pick

1284
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: and we'll give you know, we'll take a couple of years.

1285
01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:26,920
Speaker 1: So I just think there's a lot of potential for

1286
01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:29,680
Speaker 1: some shuffling of those picks on draft day when it

1287
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:30,920
Speaker 1: comes around. I think it's gonna be a lot of

1288
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 1: fun to win. I mean this often. This offseason has

1289
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:36,800
Speaker 1: just been wild to begin with. All its off season

1290
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:38,400
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways have been more as exciting

1291
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,880
Speaker 1: as the regulars to approach the NFL Draft and think

1292
01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:43,680
Speaker 1: that the off season could become even more wild. I

1293
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:47,920
Speaker 1: mean today has been insane. Yeah, it's been nuts. So Maddie,

1294
01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 1: thanks for doing the mock drafts. We'll keep an eye

1295
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:53,120
Speaker 1: on Buffalo Bills dot com. For future installments. As the

1296
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:55,320
Speaker 1: draft closes in. We have to take a break here

1297
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 1: because when we come back, we will have one Shack

1298
01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 1: Lawson joining us as uh, he's back for his second

1299
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 1: stint with the Bills. We'll get his thoughts on returning

1300
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 1: to Buffalo after a sojourn that went from Miami to

1301
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,320
Speaker 1: Houston to the New York Jets in the span of

1302
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:13,600
Speaker 1: two years. We'll talk about that with him next. Here

Speaker 1: with a guy who's back for his second stint with

1309
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,479
Speaker 1: the Bills. It's Shack Lawson joining us here on One

Speaker 1: extra ah working for you. His name's Jordan Phillips. I'm

1314
01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:05,639
Speaker 1: sure you've heard of him before. I don't know if

1315
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,920
Speaker 1: you saw the end of his press conference, Shack. But

1316
01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:11,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play you the last comment. He was asked

1317
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:15,120
Speaker 1: about you specifically, and it seems like he's working for

1318
01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:18,519
Speaker 1: you as an agent. So just listen here for a second. Yeah,

1319
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: you see with Shaq Rol and represent and he was

1320
01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:28,519
Speaker 1: turning back to your Uh Shack signed the contract. So congratulations, Shack,

1321
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 1: you have you have a new agent. I don't know

1322
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,360
Speaker 1: if he's looking for a cut of your new deal,

1323
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:34,719
Speaker 1: but what do you think about that? All right? Absolutely,

1324
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,479
Speaker 1: I ain't never I ain't hear about it until, oh

1325
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,920
Speaker 1: until I signed. I'm like, that's crazy trying to recruiting.

1326
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:44,840
Speaker 1: But hey, it worked. It worked though, man, my guy

1327
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 1: got me back. You know, it was great to be

1328
01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 1: back with my dog Joy. You know, oh great. What

1329
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 1: did you tell your your real representation when they called

1330
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:55,960
Speaker 1: you and said the Bills were interested? What was your

1331
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 1: reaction and who reached out to you first? My age

1332
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:04,320
Speaker 1: and hitman. My age was like, you know, the bat

1333
01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 1: back gam. I'm like, in no way, I'm about to

1334
01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:09,320
Speaker 1: turn it down. You know, I know I left the

1335
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:14,759
Speaker 1: first time. No because family of family, you know, reasons,

1336
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 1: they got to take care of family. But when he

1337
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:19,760
Speaker 1: told me the opportunity to be back. I was so

1338
01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:22,479
Speaker 1: happy I'm tending to be bad. I was like, I mean,

1339
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:26,559
Speaker 1: I can't even passed that up, so I end up

1340
01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,760
Speaker 1: going with it. That's why I stopped out. Jodan has said,

1341
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 1: that's it's kind of it's kind of great. Yeah. So

1342
01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:37,800
Speaker 1: you've got, you know, some guys here that you know

1343
01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:40,120
Speaker 1: you are still here from the last time you were

1344
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:43,800
Speaker 1: in town playing. You know, obviously you already mentioned Jordan's back.

1345
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:47,280
Speaker 1: Ed's you know Ed's here. He's kind of rounded into form,

1346
01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:50,120
Speaker 1: He's turned into a pretty dang good player. And then

1347
01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:52,879
Speaker 1: there are some young guys out on the edge. Uh,

1348
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:55,320
Speaker 1: you know, they could use a couple of tips and

1349
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:57,680
Speaker 1: tricks of the trade that you might have in your

1350
01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 1: back pocket. What's it like coming back here as kind

1351
01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 1: of the vet that can teach some of the younger

1352
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 1: guys some tricks. Oh man, that's but blessing you no

1353
01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:15,040
Speaker 1: come back, But if can also feel like I can

1354
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:18,000
Speaker 1: learn for those guys too, you know, man, I was

1355
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:22,800
Speaker 1: like another big signing. Like when I seen barn end

1356
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,680
Speaker 1: Up signing, I was like, man, that's an opportunity to uh,

1357
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:28,560
Speaker 1: to learn from one of the best pass Russians. To

1358
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:31,320
Speaker 1: have me change my game as a pass Russian. So

1359
01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:34,040
Speaker 1: I was just looking at it like that, just stuff

1360
01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:36,080
Speaker 1: I can learn from other guys and saying like that,

1361
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:38,519
Speaker 1: Is there anything you're looking forward to get back to?

1362
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:40,760
Speaker 1: I know you've been you know you've been away from

1363
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,320
Speaker 1: the club for a year or two. What do you

1364
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:45,960
Speaker 1: Is there anything you missed and are looking forward to

1365
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:50,719
Speaker 1: having return to your life after you come back to Buffalo.

1366
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,960
Speaker 1: I missed Bill Mafield, the fans. I missed the fans. Man,

1367
01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna I tell you I missed the fans.

1368
01:11:56,360 --> 01:12:00,640
Speaker 1: You know, Um, that's what I missed. Part about it,

1369
01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:04,800
Speaker 1: the fans. Damn around the guys like you, says a

1370
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 1: lot of guys that are pretty much the whole back

1371
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 1: back seven, all the old guys still minus only leave.

1372
01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:18,840
Speaker 1: But other than that, everybody stood up. So I mean

1373
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:21,719
Speaker 1: that's why I missed about them. You know, those guys

1374
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,320
Speaker 1: already know me, then they know what type of guy

1375
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:27,000
Speaker 1: they gonna get. They ain't know they know I'm loud,

1376
01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:30,320
Speaker 1: they know I like the crant Jones, you know something

1377
01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:33,360
Speaker 1: like that. So I mean, it always feel good to

1378
01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:36,719
Speaker 1: go back and you know people know you and stuff

1379
01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 1: like that, right, so maybe just share for a shock

1380
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,680
Speaker 1: since we haven't talked to you in a while. You know,

1381
01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,200
Speaker 1: obviously you know you already mentioned. You get the big contract,

1382
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,479
Speaker 1: you go down to Miami, you take care of your family,

1383
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,720
Speaker 1: you have a pre productive season down there, uh you know,

1384
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:56,839
Speaker 1: in in twenty twenty, and then I don't know, Miami

1385
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 1: turns around after signing a bunch of you guys in

1386
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 1: free agent to see and they start chipping people out,

1387
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:07,439
Speaker 1: cutting people. Um, what was it like to kind of

1388
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 1: sign a big deal with the club and then one

1389
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 1: year later, you know, you're out the door. That had

1390
01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:15,080
Speaker 1: to be really strange for you after a team made

1391
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:17,600
Speaker 1: the commitment the size of the one Miami made, What

1392
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:21,080
Speaker 1: was that like? Uh? Yeah, that was kind of a

1393
01:13:21,160 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: little different. He had a top five defense. It was

1394
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:28,240
Speaker 1: kind of different. But I mean it was like I

1395
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:31,760
Speaker 1: was out of position though I was a linebacker. So

1396
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 1: they seen lead bet as a three n no as

1397
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:38,640
Speaker 1: a three four a linebacker, which I didn't get a

1398
01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 1: year later. Why it happened that way? But um, and

1399
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 1: that I knew Houston wanted me and stuff like I

1400
01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 1: knew I knew Houston had a trader for me and

1401
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,360
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So that's how that ended up playing

1402
01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:55,760
Speaker 1: out right. That's uh, you've so you've been on both

1403
01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 1: sides of it. Now you've you've seen the Bills, you

1404
01:13:58,080 --> 01:14:00,599
Speaker 1: know from the inside. Then you've played against have been

1405
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:02,760
Speaker 1: in the same division as Then what is the perception

1406
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:05,400
Speaker 1: and what do you see when you look at this

1407
01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:09,320
Speaker 1: club from the outside and now coming back inside the building.

1408
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: Tell us about what you're thinking about that and how

1409
01:14:12,600 --> 01:14:16,240
Speaker 1: that's gonna change. Man, that's a special group watching me

1410
01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 1: his last two years. He's got a special in his career.

1411
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,479
Speaker 1: And I remember day one when coachman Dermot came and

1412
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:27,880
Speaker 1: he was his plan was to change of coaching and

1413
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:31,680
Speaker 1: he did that. You know, it was before he got here.

1414
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,919
Speaker 1: We are talking about trying to get in the playoffs.

1415
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:39,040
Speaker 1: Now it's about winning championships. So so man, it's just

1416
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 1: the whole whole. It's just whole change. It's a whole

1417
01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:46,680
Speaker 1: change scenery and people respected, people respect us to win,

1418
01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 1: you know, things like that. And I know that's that's

1419
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,040
Speaker 1: the great part of being back and like seeing like

1420
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:56,240
Speaker 1: the major change because y'all know I was there with

1421
01:14:56,320 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: race Ryan, so I've seen and the first parts of

1422
01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:05,320
Speaker 1: it hear me. So it's just great to be back. Yeah,

1423
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,559
Speaker 1: and you know, your last season in the Bills uniform

1424
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 1: is still your most productive in your career. You know,

1425
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:14,599
Speaker 1: you had six and a half sacks, you had eighteen

1426
01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:17,639
Speaker 1: quarterback hits, you had thirteen tackles for loss. Those are

1427
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:21,920
Speaker 1: all single season bests for you. Uh. And with you know,

1428
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,679
Speaker 1: the gang kind of getting back together and Jordan coming

1429
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:26,840
Speaker 1: back with you, you guys were kind of neck and

1430
01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:29,719
Speaker 1: neck for the tackles for a lost lead. I remember

1431
01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 1: back in twenty nineteen. Um, do you think you're gonna

1432
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:36,040
Speaker 1: start that friendly competition up again? Stee? Who could be

1433
01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:40,559
Speaker 1: more productive? I just I just gotta do what I

1434
01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 1: gotta do for us to help the team win. You know. Uh,

1435
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,840
Speaker 1: those those things gonna come with the game, you know.

1436
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:50,240
Speaker 1: So I'm just I'm just happy to be back. I'm

1437
01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:53,960
Speaker 1: happy to Buffalo Bills, wanted to be back and things

1438
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 1: like that. So I'm just ready to work with all

1439
01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:58,840
Speaker 1: the new guys. Yeah, if you work out that way

1440
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:02,760
Speaker 1: like I did years ago, I'd be a blessing. And

1441
01:16:02,960 --> 01:16:05,799
Speaker 1: uh should we should? We have expect the full return

1442
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:10,639
Speaker 1: engagement of ty Crane. I mean people are wondering, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1443
01:16:11,600 --> 01:16:14,280
Speaker 1: that's another problem too. Yeah. Yeah, I try to leave

1444
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:16,679
Speaker 1: when I love a time. I'm trying to calm myself

1445
01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:19,320
Speaker 1: to Ukrane. Ain't it not? It work? I said, Man,

1446
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:25,759
Speaker 1: I'm just have been in Buffalo and everybody. Jack, that's awesome.

1447
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,880
Speaker 1: Thanks man, I appreciate your time, thanks for coming on

1448
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:29,799
Speaker 1: with Its great to have you back in the building.

1449
01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:34,639
Speaker 1: And I hope everything turns out as as as great

1450
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:37,360
Speaker 1: as we all hope it does. Yeah, sir, thank you.

1451
01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:39,639
Speaker 1: All right, Jack, Well, we'll see you up here soon.

1452
01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: Take it easy, stay in shape, my man. Yes, sir,

1453
01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:45,439
Speaker 1: all right. That's Shack Lawson joining us here back with

1454
01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 1: the Bills after a two year hiatus. So pretty cool, um.

1455
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 1: I mean, he's excited to be back, and you understand why.

1456
01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:56,080
Speaker 1: And I think for a guy that saw this program

1457
01:16:56,200 --> 01:17:00,479
Speaker 1: in its infancy to where it's at now, I think

1458
01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:02,640
Speaker 1: he's even more interested in coming back and trying and

1459
01:17:02,680 --> 01:17:05,360
Speaker 1: contribute in some way, shape or form. I know you

1460
01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:08,760
Speaker 1: and I talked about this, Steve. It's a little bit

1461
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,360
Speaker 1: different now, though it's gonna be somewhat of an uphill

1462
01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 1: battle for him making this roster because you have von

1463
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 1: Miller and you have the three young kids. That's four

1464
01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:21,040
Speaker 1: right there. Now. They did, if memory serves, keep five

1465
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:23,559
Speaker 1: ends and four defensive tackles last year on the fifty

1466
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:29,040
Speaker 1: three man roster, right, So he's battling to be the

1467
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:31,200
Speaker 1: fifth end for all intents and purposes. I mean, he's

1468
01:17:31,240 --> 01:17:33,599
Speaker 1: here on a one year deal. It's no skin off

1469
01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 1: their nose if they tear up the contract. So yeah,

1470
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:39,760
Speaker 1: I mean he's got to come in rare and a go.

1471
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:46,240
Speaker 1: Yeah it's I mean it's Greg Rousseau, boogie bash him?

1472
01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 1: Who else? Von Miller? Von Miller? There's four right there? Um,

1473
01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 1: they keep five? Who's it going to be? I would

1474
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,439
Speaker 1: say Shack, but you know now that's who's got to be,

1475
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:13,920
Speaker 1: right because Jordan Phillips's defensive tackle at Oliver because really

1476
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:16,320
Speaker 1: his only competition right now is Mike Love. Now that

1477
01:18:16,360 --> 01:18:21,320
Speaker 1: could change. But I think Shack's versatility is what helps

1478
01:18:21,360 --> 01:18:24,640
Speaker 1: him here in this regard because if you remember when

1479
01:18:24,680 --> 01:18:27,680
Speaker 1: he was here the last time, yes, he was a

1480
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:29,760
Speaker 1: defensive end in four three, but they would kick him

1481
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,080
Speaker 1: down inside and obvious passing downs and he did quite

1482
01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:36,880
Speaker 1: well in there. So I think it's his position versatility

1483
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:39,720
Speaker 1: that helps and for all intents and purposes, he could

1484
01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:42,920
Speaker 1: be this year's fa Obata, you know what I mean.

1485
01:18:43,200 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 1: I think that's the role he could play, perhaps an

1486
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:49,000
Speaker 1: even larger one if one of those young players does

1487
01:18:49,040 --> 01:18:51,880
Speaker 1: not mature and develop. You know, in year two for

1488
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 1: Basham or in year three for epinessa Roussel is going

1489
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,559
Speaker 1: to be on the field. I think that's a given. So, yeah,

1490
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:00,280
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out. Yeah,

1491
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:02,639
Speaker 1: but he's probably the fifth end on this scene. Yeah,

1492
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:04,840
Speaker 1: and they did keep a ton of guys on the

1493
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:07,280
Speaker 1: active raw. They kept ten guys on the defensive line

1494
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 1: active last year. That's a big number because we all

1495
01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,120
Speaker 1: know they rotate him through. It'll be interesting to see

1496
01:19:13,120 --> 01:19:15,040
Speaker 1: if they get a guy like von Miller and if

1497
01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 1: one of these other guys like Greg Russo or whatever

1498
01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: goes out and starts to get the lion's share of

1499
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 1: the snaps, do they go down to eight defensive linemen,

1500
01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 1: you know, four tackles, four ends, and go with that,

1501
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 1: because then that gives you two other guys you can

1502
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:33,760
Speaker 1: you can carry two other safeties, two other linebackers, two

1503
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:36,880
Speaker 1: other corners, or a wide receiver and a running back

1504
01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 1: or a tight end and all that other, all the

1505
01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 1: other combinations you just get an extra two roster spots back.

1506
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:43,479
Speaker 1: If you get a guy like von Miller who's instead

1507
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:45,559
Speaker 1: of taking thirty three percent of the snaps like these

1508
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 1: guys do, he takes fifty five percent, and so does

1509
01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 1: Greg Russo take fifty five percent, then you don't need

1510
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:57,400
Speaker 1: those other two guys in the rotation. Something to think about.

1511
01:19:57,920 --> 01:19:59,760
Speaker 1: And I think I think it'll manifest itself, and we

1512
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:02,519
Speaker 1: want know that until game day, until if the final

1513
01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:05,720
Speaker 1: rosters after training camp, right, I don't think there's any

1514
01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:09,160
Speaker 1: debate about that. Question for you is how does Tyreek

1515
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:12,320
Speaker 1: Hill being traded to the Dolphins today and the AFC

1516
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:15,000
Speaker 1: East change the way you feel about the Bills chances

1517
01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:18,200
Speaker 1: in the division. Time for us to go to the

1518
01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 1: tweet sheet brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the

1519
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:25,160
Speaker 1: official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills, and we

1520
01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:27,760
Speaker 1: lead off with JT who says we will continue to

1521
01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:29,960
Speaker 1: run the AFC East. Hill will have to put up

1522
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,479
Speaker 1: with mister Lockdown himself, Trey White, plus the Fish don't

1523
01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,880
Speaker 1: have a quarterback that can accurately sling it down the field,

1524
01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:40,479
Speaker 1: not to mention mister one hundred fifteen career sacks Barreling

1525
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:44,160
Speaker 1: down on their quarterback. Also, Josh is the Finn's daddy.

1526
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:48,519
Speaker 1: He owns them. Some of those things are true. It's

1527
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:51,599
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see how much Tyreek Hill lines

1528
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:55,960
Speaker 1: up outside Steve. Because Jalen Wattle is the slot guy,

1529
01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:58,080
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill won't be lining up in the slot nearly

1530
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 1: as much as he did in Kansas City. So are

1531
01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:04,000
Speaker 1: they are they gonna line them up outside exclusively now

1532
01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:06,880
Speaker 1: because they have Jalen Wattle and eighty catch guy in

1533
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:09,719
Speaker 1: the slot already. I think what you'll see is Tyreek

1534
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:12,000
Speaker 1: Hill being just what you said, Adebo Samuels type of guy.

1535
01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:15,720
Speaker 1: They'll line him up everywhere, absolutely everywhere. His speed is

1536
01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:17,800
Speaker 1: a problem. And when you start, all of a sudden,

1537
01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:22,400
Speaker 1: you line him up behind tah Zay for instance, you

1538
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:24,599
Speaker 1: run and you know they probably won't do this because

1539
01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:26,280
Speaker 1: two is probably not up to it. I mean, think

1540
01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:32,080
Speaker 1: about running a quarterback option or an RPO run or

1541
01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:35,960
Speaker 1: pass option with Tyreek Hill in the backfield, and you

1542
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 1: know you got a quarterback coming down the line, with

1543
01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:40,120
Speaker 1: a running back out there for either a pitch or whatever.

1544
01:21:40,160 --> 01:21:42,400
Speaker 1: You got guys running rounds. I mean, that's a nightmare.

1545
01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:44,960
Speaker 1: If the Bills are running it because Josh is a

1546
01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:47,439
Speaker 1: guy you gotta respect his run game. And you got

1547
01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 1: a guy on at the running back position number ten

1548
01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:52,720
Speaker 1: who nobody can keep up with. And then you got

1549
01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:55,160
Speaker 1: to cover guys in the back end. That's a real issue.

1550
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:57,320
Speaker 1: Not so much for the Dolphins because you know the

1551
01:21:57,360 --> 01:22:00,120
Speaker 1: quarterback is going to give it away. You know he's

1552
01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:02,200
Speaker 1: gonna toss it, so as something that's gonna be a

1553
01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 1: problem for them, but to line up Tyreek in the

1554
01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:09,360
Speaker 1: backfield just the same, the defense has gotta check that.

1555
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:12,880
Speaker 1: Who are you gonna if they go, man, you're gonna

1556
01:22:12,880 --> 01:22:17,000
Speaker 1: put you know, Tremaine on him, even Milano, No, you

1557
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:20,000
Speaker 1: can't do it. So when you start moving him around,

1558
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 1: which I think they'll do, they'll give Waddle and he'd Samuel.

1559
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 1: They'll give those guys spots where they line up, and

1560
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,680
Speaker 1: the wild card is gonna be Tyreek Hill. Worry. You

1561
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:31,080
Speaker 1: gotta find him and then you gotta check to make

1562
01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,240
Speaker 1: sure you've got him either doubled or you got the

1563
01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,599
Speaker 1: right guy on him. Christopher on the tweet sheet says

1564
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,280
Speaker 1: he had a top five, maybe top three quarterback in

1565
01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:42,200
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and now he's going to have maybe the

1566
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 1: worst starting quarterback in the league that might be a

1567
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:47,599
Speaker 1: little strong. This trade benefits the Bills more than anyone else.

1568
01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:50,000
Speaker 1: As the Chiefs no longer have their big play receiver.

1569
01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:53,760
Speaker 1: Juju is not a great replacement in Kansas City. You're

1570
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:55,640
Speaker 1: thinking of the Juju that had to play with a

1571
01:22:55,720 --> 01:22:58,880
Speaker 1: rag arm Ben Roethlisberger the last two years. Put Juju

1572
01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:02,759
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes. Watch what happens, right, Watch what happens.

1573
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:06,559
Speaker 1: I agree with that. He'll and in one of the

1574
01:23:06,560 --> 01:23:09,000
Speaker 1: other tweets, they said, you know, Juju was with Ben

1575
01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger last year. Last two years, he's with a rag

1576
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,880
Speaker 1: armed Ben Roethlisberger. So Juju is probably gonna get a

1577
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:17,800
Speaker 1: wild look at this guy throw it. I'm I'm gonna

1578
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:19,559
Speaker 1: go out here and you know all go to places

1579
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:21,160
Speaker 1: on the field where I would not have gone for

1580
01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:24,120
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlison too. So he just steps right in there.

1581
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:27,720
Speaker 1: Um yeah. And like we we talked about earlier in

1582
01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:30,120
Speaker 1: the show, Mahome is going to elevate people. Josh Allen

1583
01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:34,160
Speaker 1: elevates people. Aaron Rodgers elevates people, Russ Wilson elevates people,

1584
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:39,120
Speaker 1: Herbert Burrow, you know, name it, all those guys. Tua

1585
01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:43,680
Speaker 1: has not shown the ability to do that, and I

1586
01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,880
Speaker 1: think it'll be interesting to see how much Tyreek can

1587
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:49,760
Speaker 1: elevate everybody else with his presence. Jay add on the

1588
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:51,519
Speaker 1: tweet sheet says, I think we may need to go

1589
01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:54,120
Speaker 1: cornerback cornerback with our first two picks this year. We

1590
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 1: should still win the division, but I can see Miami

1591
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,200
Speaker 1: overtaking New England for second place. What do you think

1592
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:02,799
Speaker 1: about that? I think that's in the cards. That's possible. Yeah,

1593
01:24:03,479 --> 01:24:06,040
Speaker 1: because his last echeck. New England is still slow as

1594
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:09,240
Speaker 1: molasses as a football team, particularly on defense, and they

1595
01:24:09,280 --> 01:24:15,720
Speaker 1: lost J. C. Jackson and they're radio silence in free agency. Yeah,

1596
01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:19,439
Speaker 1: they resigned Trent Brown, their offensive tackle. They lost Ted Carriss,

1597
01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:26,800
Speaker 1: the guard. I mean, yeah, I don't know. Bill Belichick

1598
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:32,920
Speaker 1: phenomenal head coach, general manager, not so great. They chaded Trace,

1599
01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:36,720
Speaker 1: traded Chase Winowich for Mack Wilson and a linebacker for

1600
01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 1: a linebacker exchange with the Browns, and they traded away

1601
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:43,840
Speaker 1: Shack Mason. They traded Jack Mason to Tampa Bay for

1602
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 1: a fifth round pick, and they also released Kyle van Noy.

1603
01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:51,040
Speaker 1: They signed wide receiver Time Montgomery away from New Orleans.

1604
01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:53,920
Speaker 1: And a cornerback, Terrence Mitchell, who was one of the

1605
01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:56,880
Speaker 1: most penalized corners in the entire league last year. They

1606
01:24:56,880 --> 01:25:00,960
Speaker 1: signed him away from Houston. But they also lost jac Jackson,

1607
01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:04,439
Speaker 1: the fullback, Jakob Johnson, Ted Carress. As you mentioned, Steve,

1608
01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:07,840
Speaker 1: they resigned Nick fo Matt Slater, Trent Brown, James White,

1609
01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:13,479
Speaker 1: Jacobe Myers, Devin mccordy, Brian Hoyer. At best, they stood

1610
01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:16,400
Speaker 1: pat at best, and I wouldn't even say they did

1611
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:18,400
Speaker 1: that because they lost Shack Mason and Ted Carres. They

1612
01:25:18,439 --> 01:25:22,719
Speaker 1: lost two two guards um on their offensive line, so

1613
01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:25,559
Speaker 1: they got a lot of work to do. And I

1614
01:25:25,600 --> 01:25:29,280
Speaker 1: know they're they're usually dumpster diving for bargains at the

1615
01:25:29,360 --> 01:25:32,160
Speaker 1: end of free agency, but man, that's a that's a

1616
01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:35,040
Speaker 1: big to do list, big to do list. Jack says,

1617
01:25:35,240 --> 01:25:38,280
Speaker 1: I'm not scared of the Fish. Josh Allen still owns them,

1618
01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 1: and they do not have mahomes to lob them the bombs.

1619
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:44,080
Speaker 1: So whatever, the Dolphins will be a more interesting team,

1620
01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:48,040
Speaker 1: but I predict they are still second best. Second best

1621
01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:51,439
Speaker 1: would be an improvement for them, though. Yeah, and if

1622
01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:54,120
Speaker 1: you're second in this division, you might be in the

1623
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:58,479
Speaker 1: hunt for a wild card you might be. Yeah, it's

1624
01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see. We've talked a lot about him.

1625
01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:02,920
Speaker 1: People tongue in cheeks say, wow, you know the AFC

1626
01:26:03,080 --> 01:26:06,559
Speaker 1: West is really gonna be it is. That's a tough

1627
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,479
Speaker 1: division on paper anyway. Yeah, I don't know how it's

1628
01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:11,200
Speaker 1: going to manifest on the football field. But the Chiefs

1629
01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:12,720
Speaker 1: are still gonna be good with Pat Mahomes. You know

1630
01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:14,680
Speaker 1: they will with Andy Reid caldon plays. They're gonna be

1631
01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 1: good offensively anyway. The Raiders seem to have gotten better.

1632
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:20,680
Speaker 1: They got a new head coach, though. The Broncos, you'd

1633
01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:22,439
Speaker 1: think they're getting better with Russell Wilson, but they got

1634
01:26:22,439 --> 01:26:26,920
Speaker 1: a new head coach. The San Diego Chargers are perennially underachievers.

1635
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:28,599
Speaker 1: We'll see if they can get out of their own way,

1636
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:32,559
Speaker 1: but they've got some players. New coaching regimes usually struggle

1637
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:34,760
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs in the first year, and I

1638
01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if that holds true for those two

1639
01:26:37,280 --> 01:26:39,240
Speaker 1: teams out there in the AFC West, especially in light

1640
01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:42,200
Speaker 1: of the competition they have to play in their own divisions. Yeah,

1641
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,559
Speaker 1: go ahead quickly. Because John challenged us on this on

1642
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,240
Speaker 1: the tweet, cheat, He says. I know you guys won't

1643
01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:49,720
Speaker 1: read this on the air, but I don't care that

1644
01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,840
Speaker 1: he went to Miami because, in my opinion, Tua is trash.

1645
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:56,160
Speaker 1: Let's be honest. Mahomes made Hill who he is? Bill

1646
01:26:56,280 --> 01:27:00,680
Speaker 1: still running the East. I'll hang up and listen. Yeah,

1647
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:03,000
Speaker 1: there's that sentiment out there. How much can they help?

1648
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:05,240
Speaker 1: How much can two him make? How you know? Can

1649
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,719
Speaker 1: Tyree Hill be as good as he was for Kansas

1650
01:27:07,720 --> 01:27:10,240
Speaker 1: City when Pat mahomes Is thrown it to him as

1651
01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:11,800
Speaker 1: he as he will be with two have thrown it

1652
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:16,080
Speaker 1: to him. I I have hard time seen it myself.

1653
01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:19,160
Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel and his offensive staff are gonna have to

1654
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:22,080
Speaker 1: be as creative as as as they have ever been

1655
01:27:22,600 --> 01:27:25,160
Speaker 1: because of the limitations of their quarterback. Who was the

1656
01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:28,800
Speaker 1: last head coach to be a first year head coach

1657
01:27:28,800 --> 01:27:31,439
Speaker 1: and take his team to the playoffs? Was it McVay

1658
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:36,200
Speaker 1: eighteen with the Rams? McDermott and McDermott did it in seventeen.
