19
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: Tyler Kannabily, Look, I know what it's like, have to

20
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: transition people, look, teach people about a tough last name. Yeah,

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: I'm familiar Knebel. He's a tricky one. It is a

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: little bit everyone. It's the either the naval like I

23
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: called Evil kanevl in like elementary school. Yeah, you didn't

24
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: even know what that meant that. Yeah, Yes, Evil Knevel

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: was for my time for the most part. Honestly, don't

26
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: even know what time he was. He was mid seventies, okay, Yes,

27
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: stunt daredevil guy. Yes, yeah, we're not talking about Yes, well,

28
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: some some people would say that there's evil. There's plenty

29
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: of evil in Derek Carr. Yeah, if you've drafted in

30
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: for your fantasy teams, you've had middling production every year.

31
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: But he's like four thousand yards every year, twenty eight

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: touchdowns every year, you know, twenty two, it's actually the

33
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: high in twenty three, twenty five, twenty eight touchdowns every year.

34
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: He's not you know, he certainly hasn't lived up to

35
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: his draft status. Speaking of draft status, where is he

36
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: going in drafts right now? For early drafts for this

37
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: coming year? Right now, he is the QB twenty about

38
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: round ten or eleven. It's funny because he was the

39
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: QB twenty in points per game last year. So in yeah,

40
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: in theory, you could just be do you like a

41
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: situation better or do you like it worse than the Raiders?

42
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: I think I like it worse. Although you know, Chris

43
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: A Lobby is going to be very good. Rashidch Heat's

44
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: pretty exciting. Juwan Johnson's got some upside, scout some young

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 1: players to build around. I agree. I just think that

46
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: are they better than one he had with the Raiders

47
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: because right now, I mean, if we break down his

48
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two season, we kind of use the some

49
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: of the stats with with Mariota and a couple episodes ago,

50
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: but he had the seventh worst on target percentage among

51
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two quarterbacks, the fifth worst poor percentage throws

52
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: four throws percentage, and then the only guys that finished

53
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: better than him were quarterbacks like Mariota, Zack Wilson, Davis Mills,

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. None of like the guys you expect like

55
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: they were better than him or worse. There they were worse.

56
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: They were worse than him. Yeah, they were worse than

57
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: him in that stat There was no guys like Patrick Mahomes.

58
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 1: There was no guys. No, That's what I'm saying, Like

59
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: I feel like the stat's a good stat because there

60
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: was no one that you wouldn't expect to see that

61
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: eye on the things. The guys who were all worse

62
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 1: in poor throw percentage than Derek Car We all guys

63
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: who got benched at some point last year. Yes, Mariota, Wilson, Mills,

64
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: and Wentz all guys that got benched exactly, which says plenty.

65
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: Derek Cart technically kind of got benched at the end

66
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: of the year too. It was it was for salary

67
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: cap reasons. They didn't want to guarantee his contract. But

68
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: you can understand why coming off a surprising number of

69
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: interceptions last year, which ties into this too. Yeah, he

70
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: had the most interceptions of his career in twenty twenty

71
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: two and twenty twenty one, so he's not gotten better

72
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: in the past couple of years. He also the worst

73
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: completion percentage since his rookie season at sixty point eight percent. Yeah,

74
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: that's not good and it's not like because when I

75
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: was thinking about it was like, the Raiders don't have

76
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: a very good old line do that went to PF.

77
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: Raiders allowed the tenth least sacks out of their eighty team, surprising,

78
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 1: and they posted the ninth best pass blocking grade per PF.

79
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: So it's not like he had a terrible offensive support

80
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: into Pro Football Focus, right, And he also had Josh

81
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: Jacobs last year who had the best season of his career.

82
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: So you'd like to think that Josh Jacobs would at

83
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: least taken to me off him exactly. And Adams, right,

84
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: And Derek and Darren Waller and Darrell who has hurt

85
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: a little bit, Hunter Renfroell hurt a little bit, but

86
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: he's still like Davanta Adams and Josh Jacobs a good line. Like,

87
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: I feel like you put any other quarterback in that situation,

88
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: they might have done a little better. Right. I think

89
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: you're probably right about that. You can dump off to

90
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara, but dude just doesn't look like he used to.

91
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: And I and his legal status, that thing is, that

92
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: thing could end up being trickier than people realize. Yeah,

93
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: it's it doesn't It does not right now, doesn't look

94
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: necessarily great. Um. Also, you got a factor and I

95
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: think a little bit with Derek carrt this stupid Taysom

96
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: Hill thing. Yeah, Taysom Hill is good for a lot

97
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: of red zone production. I would say he's gonna take

98
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: at least four to five touchdowns a season like that,

99
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: that's guaranteed. We say, Alvin Kamara owners know that basically

100
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: is going to take some touchdowns. And if we just

101
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: kind of look over all at the same situation, I

102
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: feel like a lave is like really the only piece

103
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: you can feel like great about. I guess Michael Thomas too,

104
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: depending on where you're at. Shockingly, they're bringing back Michael Thoms.

105
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: Didn't gotta be done with that guy by now, but no,

106
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: they're breaking him back. He looks okay when he's on

107
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: the field last year. I mean I remember Week one

108
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: he had two touchdowns against my Falcons, So yeah, I

109
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: know he looked okay, but he is he gonna be

110
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: on the field. He hasn't been on the field in

111
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: the past three years, virtually, not at all for three

112
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: years exactly. So I'm you mentioned the Kamara thing. Get

113
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: the suspension was also not twenty nineteen anymore. Their old

114
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: line is seemingly worse. Saints had the sixth worst PPF

115
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: pass blocking grade and finished about the middle of the the

116
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: packinsack a lot, So he's not getting a better situation

117
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: with the Saints for in terms of offensive line their

118
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: offensive play calling is probably gonna be worse. I can't

119
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: I don't know who. I don't even know who the

120
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator is for the Saints. I kindly gonna better

121
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: than Josh McDaniels, who, I mean, we know what Josh

122
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,119
Speaker 1: McDaniels is at this point. Their weapons are overall worse.

123
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: And you mentioned the taste mil thing. So yeah, now

124
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: car is a better deep ball passer than Andy Dalton

125
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: was and LaVey and Rashishi Head. I mean there those

126
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: are some downfield fast receivers, so I think he can

127
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: unlock some of those big plays. Um and i'd like

128
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: to see I'm optimistic about Derek Carr that way. But

129
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: you know, if you ask me right now, given that

130
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: he's going in round ten eleven his quarterback twenty, I

131
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: could take Anthony Richardson today, not knowing what his landing

132
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: spot's gonna be or even if you'll start this year,

133
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: or Derek Carr. I think I would take Richardson, And

134
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of other you know, there's a bunch

135
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: of other quarterbacks I think that I I think I'd

136
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: rather have at this stage than necessarily try get your

137
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: you know, your twenty five touchdowns out of Derek car

138
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: every year. Yeah. So there's a lot of notable quarterbacks

139
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,799
Speaker 1: going after him in draft. So i'll read off the quarterback.

140
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: You tell me if you would take him, okay, right now,

141
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: over Derek Carr, Bryce Young? Yeah, not knowing landing spot

142
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: not yet. Um, yes, I think I would. I think

143
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: he could. I think Bryce Young in the in the

144
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: right spot. It well, he'll be pick one or two

145
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: probably right. He also presents rushing upside that Derek Carr

146
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: just does not have whatsoever. Yeah, at least, yes, at

147
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: least some Yeah, I think that's a yes. Yep, all right,

148
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm in. I'm in on Bryce Young, Maddie Stafford. Can

149
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford just tell us if he's gonna quit the

150
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: game of football or not. I wanted to come out

151
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: and say I'm definitely coming back because we haven't heard

152
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: that yet and they're gutting this Rams team. I don't know.

153
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: I'm for me, it's it's probably still Stafford, Cup. Yes,

154
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: that's that's all you need. I need Cup to come

155
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: back healthy, but hopefully you will. Yeah, okay, I'll take Stafford,

156
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: all right. CJ. Stroude. Let's say he goes to the

157
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: Panthers at one. I don't get a lot of the

158
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: rushing production out of Stroud, but I like the passing.

159
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: But he's gonna be on one of two pretty weaponless teams. Yeah,

160
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go no on Stroud. Okay,

161
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: Kenny Pikett, No zero interest in Kenny Pickett, not Kenygain. No,

162
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: he showed he did. Hey, dude, could you throw two

163
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 1: touchdowns in a game? Is that really too much to ask?

164
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: Because he's never done it? Yeah, he's got some weapons too,

165
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: he does. Yeah, all right, last one, Jordan Love. Yeah,

166
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: and they could go Jordan Love on the Unknown and

167
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: just hope he's better. Yeah, yep, as a what is

168
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: the fourth year, fourth year first time starter? Yeah, I

169
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: like Rogers. Yeah, I think i'd go Jordan Love, you know,

170
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: given the given the offense and the weapons and yeah,

171
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: although his receivers aren't great either, honestly, but I trust

172
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: Green Baya to get something out of him. So yeah,

173
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: I think I would go with Jordan Love. Here. Um, yeah, cars,

174

Speaker 1: interested in Derek Carr. Now I'm kind of offen. Yeah,

182
