Friday edition to Cleveland Brown's Daily. 7 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: Merely Bow the great gibe. How you doing, buddy light? 8 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: Hit your light man right out of the case. I 9 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: got I sat down today while your boy hits it. 10 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: I got lots of things going on, like let me 11 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: just make sure all the ducks in a row. Yeah. 12 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: And the one stupid mute button. You never mind the 13 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: fact that mike is on but I'm muted. Yeah. If 14 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: you only had a light when they were light, well, 15 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: what right work? Because it well, it'd be like the 16 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: cough button, like the cough buttons like the mute. Yeah, 17 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: so that like when you hit the car and then 18 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: it's come back on. So that would be the same 19 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: on the mute where it would be it would serve 20 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: the same purpose. And like in a traditional studio when 21 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: they when you hit the cough the light goes off 22 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: on your mic. Correct so that would be the difference 23 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: you'd have to That's one thing that when whenever we 24 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: get your designs approved and we redo this to your specs, 25 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: it's not just the on air light, because that won't 26 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: solve it. It's the individual microphone. On air light is 27 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: what's needed. You need to have one on the mic, 28 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: just putting one up there over there. All of the 29 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: mics are hot when that light is on, but your 30 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: light you also need to have one when your microphone 31 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: is on. Correct. We spent a lot of time talking 32 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: about the on air light, which would be helpful to know, Hey, 33 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: you're on air, but you also need both, right, But 34 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: it was essentially cough button. Yeah, so you really do 35 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: need two. You need two lights? Is where you are 36 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: on that? Uh, it is a mail bag day. Get 37 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: your questions us at Brown's Underscore daily on Twitter at 38 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: Brown's and well we'll answer those in the two. Getaway 39 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: day for you, my friend, it is getaway day. For me, 40 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: it is boots he packed. No, it's they have um. 41 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 1: They finally reached an age where we can all do 42 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: carry ons. So if you know anything about me, know this. 43 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: There is no expense that I will pay that I 44 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: will I will hesitate to pay at to make the 45 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: airplane experience best. So I've flown with family for a 46 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: long time. We fly a lot. We go to go 47 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: to California, Montana every year. That's minimum requirement. So those 48 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: two flights. So I got clear, I got t SA 49 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: pre I'm locked in everything. I've done everything that I 50 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: can do. I don't have global services like a buddy 51 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: of mine does. That's a whole other level. By the way, 52 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: that global services thing is basically like you're a diplomat, 53 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: you just walk on. How do I get that everything 54 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: flies free, upgrades all the time. You just walk on. 55 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 1: Become a VP of fortune company you can um fly 56 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: a lot. That's part of it. Um So But anyway, 57 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: I do everything that I can to make sure that 58 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: this goes smoothie. And I'm very excited because we discovered 59 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: when we went to Disney back in February that we 60 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: are now a family that can entirely do carry ons. 61 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: We do not have to check bags anymore. So this 62 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: is a game changer in every way. Right, It's a 63 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: game changer at especially here where it's just just a 64 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: disaster flying out of here. Um especially this time of 65 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: year like the lines are going to be ridiculous to it. 66 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: You will look back on I know it, but I may. 67 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people I think flew Wednesday 68 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: and Thursday too, and today I think there's been a 69 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: lot of its March. Yeah, it's gonna be chaos anyway. 70 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: Um this this allows for us to not have to 71 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: deal with quite so much of that. You go to 72 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: the clear line, you go to the TSA pre that's 73 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: pretty quick usually. UM So I'm excited about that. So 74 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: this morning, on the way to school, the boys are like, well, 75 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: what about our golf clubs? And I go, well, don't 76 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: we have some out there? I thought we had some 77 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: out there that they could just play play with it. 78 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: So my father in lawson's a picture. I don't know, 79 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: you might want to pack their bags, and I'm like, 80 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: I snapped. I'm like, I we are not checking bags, okay, 81 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: Like if I gotta buy new golf clubs out there, 82 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: we're buying new golf clubs. I'm not checking bags. We're not. Um, 83 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: so we're dealing with that. Boots. He hit me yesterday 84 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: with I need I need new movies. Like I'm right 85 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 1: in the middle of a thousand things. I need.

So all right, it'll just be a 88 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: situation where once you get to desired location and when 89 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: everything and up until that point is going to be 90 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: a debacle. We play at five thirty in the morning, 91 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: so that's a I don't know, three am wake up, 92 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: that's a I mean, we board that. I've never been 93 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: on a flight like this in my life. I've been 94 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: on red Eyes. I've never been on five thirty takeoff 95 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: I have. That's a four fifty five am boarding. Yeah, 96 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: it feels like that's where they're going now out of Hopkins. 97 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 1: That that's that they're doing that really early six am 98 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: window thing. Yep, that's I'm in the landing and takeoff 99 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: pattern six am. When I hear the first plane, I'm like, 100 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: well that's six am. Yeah, and they're going and that's 101 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: the way. Yeah, it's wild. I don't it seems like 102 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: I used to fly at seven and eight a lot, 103 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: and now that's I think that's cooked. So I don't know. 104 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: We'll do the best we can and hope for the best. 105 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: Do you allowed do you allowed the boys to pack 106 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: their own bags? The carry ons new No, no, because 107 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: you have to have a that those things got to 108 00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: be packed strategically. I don't even let them pack their 109 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: backpacks because they will put everything in there. Correct. My 110 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: oldest is of the of the opinion that everything that 111 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: he owns needs to be going. And I'm like, let's 112 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: pare this down a little bit. I won't even let 113 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: them take jackets.

So the only reason I do is my 164 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: middle boy, Beamsy, is a big Kansas fan and so 165 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: he we've I've seen Kansas City play a few times 166 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,079 Speaker 1: this year. Um, and so I was a little bit 167 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: familiar with him at the beginning of the tournament, a 168 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: lot more familiar with him now. So there's one fifty 169 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: five is the listed five seven fifty five is the 170 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: listed on him. Um he is. He played three full 171 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: seasons at Arkansas Little Rock. So I don't have a 172 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: point of reference on that, but I would imagine that 173 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: is pretty close to anonymity. I don't, I don't. I 174 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: mean that's I don't know where what the attendance records 175 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: are there. My guess is not a lot, right. I mean, 176 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be very slim pickens when it comes to that. 177 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: So plays three years there, plays last year at KSE State. 178 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: I think Bruce Weber was the coach at KSE State 179 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: last year. Your boy from Illinois. I'm pretty sure he 180 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: was still there. There might have been a guy in 181 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: between him and uh Jerome Tang. There might have been. 182 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: Um he is the lone hole. There are two holders. 183 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: They had twelve players on their team last year, ten 184 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: new players this year. He is one of two holdovers 185 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: for Jerome Tang, whos a coach Kansas State. Now. They 186 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: were picked to finish tenth in the preseason in the 187 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: Big Twelve. They were ranked much of the year. They 188 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: really bumped up. They beat Kansas in Manhattan in like January, 189 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: and that's where really they jumped up to being a 190 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 1: ranked team and kind of had a little bit of 191 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: a run. He is what's beautiful of that? What's beautiful 192 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: in that tournament? There probably is not a pro career 193 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: there for him, not in the NBA. I mean, you 194 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: could play overseason stuff, but NBA will be tough. But 195 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: for a night, a New York City kid who somehow 196 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: ends from from New York City to Arkansas Little Rock 197 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: to k State to Madison Square Garden balls out and 198 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: everybody saw it. You're not beating that. You're not beating that. 199 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: His idol was Kemba Walker. Remember Kemba Walker's run in 200 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,599 Speaker 1: the Big East Tournament years ago. Yeah, remind me a 201 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: little bit of another Yukon guard, Shabazz Napier, when they 202 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: made that run to the national title. Like sometimes you 203 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: get a guard that's hot and you just go and 204 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: they have that. They now have a moment like if 205 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: they win the national title, that moment where Jerome Tang 206 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: is trying to call a play and he waves it 207 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: off in out of the corner of his eye, hits 208 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: the guy in the la oop and overtime they're literally 209 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: literally at one point, I'm like, is that staged where 210 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: they're like trying to fight with each other. They denied it. 211 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: They denied it. I think it was staged. I think 212 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: so too. It felt to me like a stage. They 213 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: denied it postgame, but it felt like I hope it 214 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: was staged. I think it's more brilliant if it was. Absolutely, Yeah, 215 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: it was. That was an amazing play. The fact Michigan 216 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: State came back and forced overtime. Yeah, I mean it. 217 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: It's a great game. It was. It might have been 218 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: one of the better games that we've seen from the 219 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 1: tournament in the last few years, much less this year. Yeah. 220 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: And then there was an I didn't so. The other 221 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: one that I was excited to watch was Gonzaga Ucla. 222 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: That one was a ninety five tip. So I watched 223 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: until eleven and Ucla is up thirteen at half. That 224 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: was half was eleven o'clock half him. I can't. I'm done. 225 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: That's my this is the witching hour. And I wake 226 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: up this morning, I see Gonzaga came back in one 227 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: and beat him with a three. With us, they use 228 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: the Villanova play inbounder trail step into the three. It's great. 229 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: All I know is that they were saying something about 230 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: the one kid from Gonzaga and I don't remember his name, 231 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: being like maybe the greatest player to come out of 232 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: Gonzaga Drew Timmy. I dude couldn't hit the broadside of 233 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: a barn from the free throw. Now he can't shoot 234 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: free throws. It's the damnedest thing. Um. He had thirty 235 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 1: seven points thirteen rebounds. He's a good shooter, but for 236 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: whatever reason, he can't shoot free throws. So he's kind 237 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: of like everything he does is like only for the 238 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: college game. He's a two time second team All American. 239 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: This year he's a first team All American. So it's 240 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: a three time All American and he can do everything 241 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: except shoot. It's just crazy. Doesn't even make sense. Because 242 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: he's got great touch. Yeah yeah, because he drove me 243 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: crazy because I hate that more than anything else. I 244 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: make a free throw man, especially when you can shoot it. Yeah, 245 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: like he shoots. Okay, It's just it was strange. I'm 246 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: glad you put this in here. The calves one last 247 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: time on the last second shot. Yes, I did see 248 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: the guy in the blue shirt. I give the bottom 249 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: just you know what. I caught it the second time. 250 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: Who's the guy jumping, and then I looked again. I'm like, oh, 251 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: this is great. It was so good. If you haven't 252 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: seen it, it's making its way around on the socials 253 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: this morning and you're able to see it. It's it's 254 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: definitely worth The guy just devastated about a meaningless regular 255 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: season loss, and meaningless he had to have some cash 256 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: on it, right or his illusion, I mean one of them. 257 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: He's literally like a coach screaming for they to cover 258 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: the corner. Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah, it's just circling back. I 259 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: just I see that you have this in the note. 260 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: In terms of television ratings one Power five so far 261 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: in the Elite eight, just Kansas State and they are 262 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: definitely in the bottom quarter of Power five brands. So 263 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: it's Kansas State. FAU Gonzaga is basically Duke West. They 264 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 1: don't have the longevity, but that's basically what they are. 265 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: I do. There's a ratings component to them that's positive. 266 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: And then Yukon Guy. I just don't think anybody sees 267 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: the Big East because they're all their games are on 268 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: FS one, so nobody sees that league. But they annihilated Arkansas, 269 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: so it's uh from a TV standpoint, it could be bad. Yeah, 270 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: they really need They need Alabama, which is a you know, 271 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: it's a brutal story, but it's an interesting brutal story. 272 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: You need Alabama, you need either Houston or Texas. I 273 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: think you're fine either one of those teams come out 274 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: of the other side over there. And then you need Gonzaga, 275 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: you need Kansas State. That's kind of your path in 276 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: terms of because this Noel kid could he could be 277 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: a star. He could, he could carry it a little bit. 278 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: So from an NFL perspective, really one of the strangest 279 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: things I've seen. I was driving home when all this 280 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: was going. It was wild. So I cut up on 281 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: this last night involving Lamar Jackson. So by now you 282 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: no doubt, no, at least have a decent handle on 283 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: what's going on there. Um, Lamar Jackson does not have 284 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: an agent, and most people around the league believe, I 285 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: think correctly that a very big reason that he's in 286 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: this position and that the Ravens are in this position 287 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: is because he doesn't. Because there isn't any There's a 288 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: lot of factors here, but not have an agent. Number one. 289 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: All of the stuff that you would say to an 290 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: agent that then could be sugarcoated before it gets to you. 291 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: Is now said directly to you. So hard feelings are 292 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: now said. Low ball offers have now been heard. They 293 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: don't all have to be heard. If you have an agent, 294 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: they can hide that stuff from you. And so I 295 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: think that's the first thing. The second thing, now that 296 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: we're in this phase where he's able to talk to 297 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: other teams because he doesn't have an agent, there isn't 298 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: anybody to say, hey, what's he worth on the open market? 299 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: Like call up a general manager, call up an owner 300 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: and say, hey, what you know. We deal with you 301 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: guys all the time. Give me an idea, what do 302 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: you think he's worth on the open market. There's nobody 303 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: to do that. So yesterday the NFL sent out a 304 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: memo to all teams saying that a guy by the 305 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: name of Ken Francis is trying to negotiate on behalf 306 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: of Lamar Jackson, and that he's actually prohibited from doing so. 307 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: So Tom Pellaicero tweets out Ken Francis is a Florida man, 308 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: of course, who most recently was a pitching a home 309 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: fitness invention. I'm told he now is trying to negotiate 310 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: a nine figure contract with NFL teams were being told 311 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: they're not allowed to negotiate with him because he's not 312 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: a certified agent. Lamar responds to this, He actually quote 313 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: tweeted this, stop lying that man never tried to negotiate 314 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: for me. He does not say that he didn't try 315 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: and call teams for me. He just didn't try to 316 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: negotiate for me. And that could be Tom's mistake. It 317 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: could be who knows. Lamar then a couple hours later, 318 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: dropped a tweet saying his business partner Ken and Him 319 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: will be dropping a new product line called the entire 320 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: Gym this summer, posted tweet and will handle of it. 321 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: And this honestly looks like an SNL skit. It's him 322 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: with a rolling suitcase going out on a football field 323 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: and pulling out what looks like a shake weight yes, 324 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: and a yoga pad and doing nonsense, and you just go, 325 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: how did we get here? How do we get to 326 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: this point? I felt like when I saw crazy, I 327 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: was like, someone needs to do a mental health check 328 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: on Lamar, Like in all Fairies, I feel like you 329 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 1: might have gone off the deep end here? How did 330 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: we get How did this guy get this access? Yeah, 331 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: how did this Ken Francis guy? Who who is he? 332 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: How did he get this access? It's a mess, and 333 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: it's hard feelings left and right. From Lamar's standpoint, he's 334 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: taking all of this very personal, obviously, you can see 335 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: that from his tone. Hey remind me a little bit. 336 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: You remember there was that handler that got ahold of 337 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: Britney Spears, Yes, Sam Lefty or something like that twenty 338 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: years ago. Real piece of work. That's kind of what 339 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm just like, why are what are we doing here? Like, 340 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: let's just get this deal done? And you know, I'm 341 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: not in any I have no interest in the Ravens. 342 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: I hope they don't have. Lamar Jackson benefit all of 343 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: us if we didn't have to deal with him all 344 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: the time. But at the same time, like it's a 345 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: former MVP of the league, Like, let's let's get this 346 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 1: locked up a little bit. And again the fact that 347 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: no one's talking to him, no, I mean he's literally 348 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: on an island. Things are gonna get interesting. I think 349 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: this weekend we're gonna we're gonna get some clarity, hopefully, 350 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: because this weekend is the owner's meetings, right and they're 351 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 1: in Phoenix. They're at the Biltmore. It's a little place 352 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: we've been before. Um. I believe some of it starts tomorrow, 353 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: but the bulk of it is Sunday Monday. Okay, Uh 354 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 1: Coach's breakfast Monday. Our guy Poise out will be on 355 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: the ground. AB's talking to people on Sunday. Um. So 356 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: it we're gonna get an idea because the Ravens people 357 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: all have to talk, Yeah, and gonna be quite interesting 358 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: to hear what they have to say given this situation. 359 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: And does someone reach out to Lamar this weekend and 360 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: try to do something? Yeah, Look, it's it is a 361 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: really really tricky uh spot, right, because as we've said 362 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: with the Lamar thing, like if at any point somebody, 363 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: if somebody makes him an offer, they're basically doing the 364 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: negotiating for the Ravens themselves. It's almost it has to 365 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: happen at the ownership level, which is probably why it 366 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: could happen this weekend, like saying, hey, he's not coming 367 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: back there, what would you guys take for him? And 368 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: and that's that's probably your best shot, quite honestly. So 369 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: I don't it's none of this, None of this is good. 370 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: Every time something happens. When is the Lamar interview with 371 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: Lamar this weekend? I don't know I'm going to see that, 372 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: like Lamar interviewing Lamar. Yeah, sometimes you just you can't 373 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: do everything by yourself, man, not not something this comp 374 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot going on here. Look at a lot 375 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: of levers to this. We're going to get as much 376 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: money as being as reported. Yeah, you can afford to 377 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: give three percent to an agent or four percent to 378 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: an agent. Honestly, the best ones are one because they've 379 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: all been negotiated down. So like you know, a lot 380 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: of the best ones. It's one. So go get yourself 381 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: a guy. Go get someone to especially if you don't 382 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: want to play for the Ravens anymore. If it's done, 383 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: which I mean all indications are it's trending that way. 384 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't even know how. I don't know how they 385 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: come back from it. But at the same time, give it. 386 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what his options are going to be 387 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: around the league. You're dwindling. We always go back to Atlanta. 388 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: I suppose Atlanta Miami. I mean, those would be the 389 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: ones if Miami, if they would want to in the deal, 390 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: those are the two teams that kind of seem to 391 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: make a little bit of sense, but it's pretty limited. 392 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: I agree the Raiders maybe, well they just got Garoppolo, 393 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: so no, not the Raiders. Well but if the Raiders 394 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: are whining and dining Bryce Young, yeah, which I would 395 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: think that they would be. Yeah, probably No, not the Raiders. Yeah, 396 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. There could be a wild card out 397 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: there that could be that. There could be Seattle, could 398 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: be Detroit too, Yeah, I don't know. It's just ugly. 399 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: The Detroit one keeps coming back is they've got extra ones, 400 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 1: like you've got to have the two ones, so well, yeah, yeah, 401 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: you need the consecutive year ones is what the minimum 402 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: requirement is. But as I've said, the problem with that 403 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: is is there's no there's nothing that would um. As 404 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: soon as you agree to that, they can match it. 405 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: So really, what you what you have to have more 406 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: than anything else, is you have to have a deal 407 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: with Bishati. What would you take in a trade like 408 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 1: a sign and trade situation, It's like an old NBA 409 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: sign and trade is probably the best path forward. Either 410 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: that or a number so big that the Ravens are 411 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: comfortable just getting two twos and letting them walk, or 412 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: two ones and letting them walk. Those are the Those 413 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: are the two pass forward as you said, But like, 414 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: when is this gonna When is this gonna come to bed? 415 00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: I think by the draft. I think they're too good 416 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: of an organization for not to come by the draft. 417 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: The Ravens have just done too much right to not 418 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: you know, to not land the play off. Yeah, I mean, 419 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: if if you're the Ravens, you want you want a 420 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: number one this year? If yeah, and they don't have 421 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: any plan B a quarterback hunt. He's not even there anymore, 422 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Now he's done. He walked, so 423 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: there's no I don't know if he's been resigned, but 424 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: he's but I'm pretty sure he's not. He's not on 425 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: their team anymore. So there is no plan B for them. 426 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: It's possible they would in any trade. Maybe they would 427 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: want a quarterback in return, So maybe Miami would make 428 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: some sense, or if you're Atlanta, maybe Desmond Ritter would 429 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: make a little bit of sense. Um, just get you 430 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: a little bit of a heads up on what you 431 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: got to look forward to, what you have to look 432 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: forward to tonight. On the basketball side of things, You've 433 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: got San Diego State in Alabama. That's your early game. 434 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: That's a six thirty TBS tip. And then it's seven 435 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: to fifteen it's Miami and Houston. That's a seven fifteen 436 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: tip on CBS nine o'clock as Princeton and Creighton. And 437 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,919 Speaker 1: then ninety five the night closes with Xavier and Texas. 438 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 1: So that is the slate it should be. I've never 439 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: seen ninety five. I'm gonna see half. I was going 440 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: to say, you've got obligations. Yeah, I mean the game 441 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: I'm most looking forward to, much like yesterday is the 442 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: earliest game. Yesterday was Kansas State, the case Michigan State game, 443 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: and it's San Diego State Alabama. That's the one that's 444 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: got the most intrigue around it for sure. Yeah. So 445 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: that's your slate for tonight. One other thing quickly on that. 446 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: You will notice that in the of the four teams 447 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 1: already in the Elite eight, as I mentioned, only one 448 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: is a power five in terms of the games over 449 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: the next couple of days. Alabama will obviously be favored 450 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 1: coming out of their region, and they are a power five, 451 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: but they are not a basketball brand in any way, 452 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: shape or form. In fact, the furthest they've ever gone 453 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: in the tournament as a program is the Elite eight. 454 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: They've never been to a final four. Texas has been 455 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: to three final fours, most recently h three. The other 456 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: two are in the forties. So while they are a big, 457 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: big brand, they are not a basketball brand in any way, 458 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: shape or form. You're going to have a lot of 459 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: new blood in the NCAA Tournament over the next couple 460 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: of weekends Saturday and then next weekend. In the final fours. 461 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: They are They're the one. They're the one team that yeah, yeah, 462 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean get a little juice, But yeah, I mean, 463 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: I think any combination of from a television perspective, if 464 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: it's Alabama, KA State, Houston, or Texas and Gonzaga, that 465 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: would have some juice to it from a TV from 466 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: a rating standpoint, and that's what they'll be banking on. Still, 467 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: time to get your questions into us at for the 468 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: mail Bay coming up a two thirty a Browns Underscore Daily. 469 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: Our good buddy Austin Ward we'll be joining us covers 470 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: all things.

Obviously at 474 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: the top end of it, but then also some guys 475 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: that we could have an interest in in. And once 476 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: you're talking into the third round, some defensive lineman, perhaps 477 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: some secondary guys you could be taking a look at. 478 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: So we'll get into that with him. We'll go around 479 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: the league. Mail kiper Junior had a ninety minute presser 480 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: on the draft.

But Pro Day down there on Wednesday, 504 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: Let's start at the top. Let's start with the headliner 505 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: and CJ. Stroud. You and I obviously remembered the Georgia game. 506 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: I've a feeling a lot of the people who cover 507 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft didn't, but now they're being reminded of it. 508 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: It feels like this was we kind of in terms 509 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: of the Pro Day, the whole NFL was there for 510 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: crying out loud or thereabouts. How did CJ look pretty 511 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: darn good bos you might imagine for somebody with his 512 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 1: arm ability, and you know there's I always wonder like 513 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: what exactly? So all thirty two teams were there. The 514 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: Panthers brought in I think fourteen representatives from our organization, 515 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: including the ownership, which I don't recall happening before for 516 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: an Ohio State Pro Day. May have, but it may 517 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: have slipped my mind. But I know that Carolina did 518 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: it this week and they got a show as I 519 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: thought that they might. I mean, Cjy didn't need to 520 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: really work out much more that after what he did 521 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 1: in the combine. We saw how impressive he was there. 522 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: He followed that up by you know, throwing the Jackson 523 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: Smith and Jigbua and Marvin Harrison and he threw like 524 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: a sixty five yard deep ball to wrap up the 525 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: workout to Jayden Bauer. That was absolutely perfect. So you know, 526 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: if if people needed to see him do that in 527 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: shorts and a T shirt one last time to be convinced, 528 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: so be it. He did it. I think maybe more 529 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: than anything, it's stacking that up one day of watching 530 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: CJ strout and making sure that you do get an 531 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: appreciation for how big he is physically compared to somebody 532 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: like Clepsay Fryce Young. You know this, he is physically imposing, 533 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure that many people realize that last 534 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: season or even going into last season. Certainly you get 535 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: up close and personally you realize how big and strong 536 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: this guy is. And I know that Anthony Richardson and 537 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 1: Will Levis will have that going for them too, but 538 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: they don't have the rest of the stuff that d 539 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: Trout put on display again on Wednesday. He is um 540 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: You know, there's only been three Buckeyes who have gone 541 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: number one overall in the draft. Wilkinson did it, Pace 542 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: did it, Kuzano did it. Never a quarterback, obviously, he 543 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: would be the third straight O Highest state quarterback to 544 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: be a well, he will be the third straight oh 545 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: Highest state quarterback to be a first round pick. At 546 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: this point in the process with the other two, how 547 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: would you rank where CJ is now versus how you 548 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: viewed Fields and Haskins. Yeah, I think to start with 549 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 1: Dwayne he had a lot of you know that stuff 550 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: that you go see a workout and you're going to 551 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: be blown away. The arms talent was exceptional. I think 552 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: everybody in the Woody had an idea that he needed 553 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: more time to, you know, develop some of the mental 554 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: processing for the position. You know, we can't go back 555 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,719 Speaker 1: and change that and his decision and anything after that, 556 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: but you knew that it might take a little bit 557 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: longer for him to become that at the next level. 558 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: But all at the same time, nobody faulted him because 559 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: he had already done enough to be a first round pick, 560 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: but he was the furthest away from being a starting 561 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL when he left. Justin was much 562 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: closer to that. But I think that you know, the 563 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: situation he was gonna be in wasn't gonna put him 564 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: in any advantageous situations, and he it took a while 565 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: for Chicago to figure out what to do with his athleticism. 566 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: Ere One was kind of a waste for him in 567 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 1: Chicago in terms of just off the charts athletic ability. 568 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: You know, Justin the Fields is almost in a category 569 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: all by himself at Ohio State. You know, you lump 570 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: him in with Braxton Miller, but that does a disservice 571 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: to how talented Justin Fields is with his arm CJ 572 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: is sort of a mix between the two, and now 573 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: he's got two full seasons of starting at Ohio State. 574 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: He's the most pro ready in my mind of these guys. 575 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if he'll reach the same ceiling as 576 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: justin Fields, and maybe it'll depend on where he lands 577 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: or what Caroline up puts around him, but in terms 578 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: of going out and being ready for everything that's going 579 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: to be thrown at him, I think he's probably closest 580 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: to that point. Yeah, I would have I had it. 581 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: I felt the most confident about Fields at this point 582 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: in the gestation process heading to the draft and then 583 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: and then Stroud second, and then Haskins third. But part 584 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,719 Speaker 1: of my Haskins, much like you had that, that that 585 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: knowledge from that that was he needed to go to 586 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: the right spot where he was nurtured along. And I'll 587 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: never get talking to an NFL general manager at the 588 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: combine and they were like, the one thing about him 589 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: is the stuff is so open because of their talented 590 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: receiver that it's hard to know that if he if 591 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: he has to process quickly and hit tight windows, will 592 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: it be able to do it. So I was a 593 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: little clouded by that information, but I like him. I 594 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: like Fields a lot and I like Stroud a lot too, 595 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: and I think he's the safest bet for sure among 596 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: this group. One of three Buckeyes will be first round picks, right, 597 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: Paris going to go in the top ten or fifteen. 598 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: Feels like he's got a chance. How did he look? 599 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 1: And then of course Jackson Smith at JIGBA. A lot 600 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: of people worry about that speed, but in and out 601 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: of breaks, he's got all of it. Give me a 602 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 1: little on those two guys, Bud, Yeah, I think Paris, 603 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's hard for me to know for sure, 604 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: because like sure the measurable stuff for Paris, Like, I 605 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: don't know what they need from an offensive lineman. How 606 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: many times is he gonna run a forty and a 607 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: straight line at the NFL level? Probably zero. But I 608 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: was out there and I sort of escaped the cage 609 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: in the corner a little bit. We're working on our 610 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: Cam Brown, you know, Docuse series, So I floated a bit, 611 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: and the people, the evaluators out there on the field, 612 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: we're raving about what Paris Johnson did? You know? To me, 613 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: it looks like a guy moving through bags. And I've 614 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: also seen him play for the last two years and 615 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: it looked like a first round draft pick. So again 616 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: it was a situation. I don't know what more they 617 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: need to see, but whatever it is that they were 618 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: looking for, he showed. He moved around very well. He's 619 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: incredibly polished as an interview subject. He's been doing a 620 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: lot of extra homework so that he can get on 621 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: the board and draw offenses for you know, these people 622 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: when he sits down for the interviews. I think the 623 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: process has been off the chart successful for Paris Johnson. 624 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: As I sit here, you know, he told me about 625 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: a week or so ago, you know that Justin fields 626 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: him and calling him, and he talked about how great 627 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: it would be if they can get back together in Paris, 628 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: you know, can come help protect him in Chicago. I 629 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: don't know. Sometimes maybe it's just a maybe it's just 630 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: an anecdote. I don't know, but I'm having a hard 631 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: time in my mind thinking that Paris gets past that 632 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: point down there at number nine, I believe. And then 633 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: so he's done everything he needs to do. Is he 634 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: should be the first tackle off the board for me. 635 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: But we'll see what these guys all decide next month. 636 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: And then Jackson did run the forty. He ran one forty. 637 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: He thought that was good enough to call it a 638 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: day on that port that part then went out and 639 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: did the same you know, electrifying stuff running routes that 640 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: everybody expects. Caught the ball. Well, I think that the 641 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: hamstring stuff should be put in the rear view mirror. 642 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: He and if anybody doubts his ability or willingness to 643 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: want to go out and play and perform after last year, 644 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: I think they just have to look and understand some 645 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: of the medical stuff for him and how severe the 646 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: hamstring the second setback really was there in October. The 647 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: guy loves to play football, he wants to play football, 648 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: and you know he had a chance. He wants he's 649 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 1: fully healthy to go round that forty. I think he 650 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: put up the time. That's good enough when you put 651 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: that in together with the rest of the rest of 652 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: the speed in and out of breaks that you mentioned. 653 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: And if you want somebody to go plug and play 654 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: and spot next year, if for an NFL team, Jackson 655 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: Smith and Jim was just about the best you could 656 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 1: do in my mind, talking to the great Austin Ward, 657 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: he writes dotting the Eyes. He's a host of the 658 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: podcast on the Highest State Rivals Network. He joining us 659 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: on the Twisted te Hotline, brought to by Twisty Heart, 660 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: iced official sponsor for your Cleveland Browns. So none of 661 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: those guys are going to be there when the Browns 662 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: picking the third round. That way, Yeah, in terms of 663 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: guys who could be and I think a tremendous position. 664 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,479 Speaker 1: The Browns with free agency don't really have needs at 665 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: this point. They've Andrew Berries tackled that in terms of 666 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: free agency in the trade with Elijah Moore this week, 667 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 1: so he can take best available. But there are position 668 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: groupings on this team that are more appealing than others, 669 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: and I think more maybe needy than others. And it 670 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: starts up front. And I don't know if Zach Harrison 671 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: will get there in the third round, but they do 672 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: have two third round picks. What do you make of Harrison? 673 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: And this is the guy who's a five star kid 674 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: out of Powell, Northern Columbus suburbs, who never quite had 675 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: the sack numbers, but maybe that doesn't tell the whole story. 676 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: What do you think about Harrison and his fit in 677 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,760 Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, I think his best football is ahead 678 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 1: of him stillbo and we've been saying that you and 679 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: I for going on four years now, and it has 680 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 1: got progressively better. I think it's a lot of times, 681 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: at least locally down here, Zach Harrison's been trapped by 682 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 1: what you need to be Chase Young, You need to 683 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: be Joey Bosa. He need to be Nick Bosa, and 684 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: that's not necessarily his game. He's long. I think the 685 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: biggest problems that he wound up causing last year with 686 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: his wingspam batting down passes. He paul and he's got 687 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 1: super long arms, and he started figuring out how to 688 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: use that when he couldn't get to the passer. I 689 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: think that there's you know, he's really good against the run. 690 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: He's got a bunch of tackles for loss. He understands 691 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 1: how to play football and he doesn't physically the knock 692 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: down here was just always he was a split second 693 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: way from getting sacks, and you know, sometimes that's opportunity, 694 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: sometimes that's other things and coverage. You know, that can't 695 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: be the only way that you evaluate it. But he 696 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: has everything you would want, both physically and mentally and 697 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: emotionally to be a professional player. And I think that 698 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: most people will realize that at the next level. So 699 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: I don't know that he'd get to the third round. 700 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 1: I think it's unlikely. Although maybe he didn't run the 701 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 1: forty just to think his stock a little bit and 702 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, maybe go to a better spot where he 703 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: can play. I don't know, that's just the joke. I 704 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: don't know, because I want to see him run the forty. 705 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: He is so fast and that would have the beden 706 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: thing that I thought could have put him in all 707 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: the way up into the first round. I think you'll 708 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 1: go in the second. But I do believe that he's 709 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: going to be a good pro, and probably a long 710 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: time one at that. Let's talk about the two secondary guys. 711 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: You mentioned Cam Brown, the corner you're doing the docuse 712 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: series with, and then Ronnie Hickman, who is the safety. 713 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: What do you make of those two as they transition. 714 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: I mean we all remember Fuller right a couple of 715 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: years ago, and you're like, boy, this guy went from 716 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: late pick all of a sudden, he's starting in the 717 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: super Bowl for the Rams. Yeah. Ronnie Hickman is an 718 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: interesting one for me. He didn't work out at all 719 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, and he didn't do the drills at the 720 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 1: combine in Indianapolis. He I think it was some sort 721 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 1: of hamstring issue. I'm not an hundred percent sure on that. 722 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: At least that was the case in Indy. He didn't 723 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: do any interviews or anything with the media on Wednesday, 724 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: so I'm not an hundred percent sure what that health 725 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: situation is. But he That makes him even more interesting 726 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: to figure out, I think for NFL teams, because the 727 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: first half of last season, I thought he's playing himself 728 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: into the top two rounds and maybe the first because 729 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: he was he was never out of position assignment sound 730 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 1: grading off the charts from the Ohio State coaching staff. 731 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: The year before, he had been asked to do something 732 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: a little bit differently, and he was Ohio State's leading tackler. 733 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: Now that was on a defense that wasn't great, but 734 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: he was the first year starter, led them in tackles, 735 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: was not afraid to go lay the woods. So he's 736 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:20,959 Speaker 1: shown that he can do things in coverage. He's shown 737 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: things he didn't do going up into the box, but 738 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: he's also had some breakdowns and pass coverage. The second 739 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: half of the year, I think maybe he got a 740 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: little too caught up in where his draft stock was 741 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: at that point. And the play flips he had. He 742 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: was not good in the rivalry loss, and he was 743 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: not great in the Peach Bowl, and so I don't 744 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,879 Speaker 1: know where his stock sits, but I know he has 745 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,799 Speaker 1: the potential to be a good NFL player. I don't know, 746 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: I really I'd have to throw a dart to know 747 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: what round he's gonna go in. Because teams could fall 748 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: in love with him, or they could they could find 749 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: things that they hate, and the same will be true 750 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 1: for Cam Brown. Although the issue for him at Corner 751 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 1: has always been helped and staying healthy. He still had 752 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: a hamstring issue that he was working through on Wednesday, 753 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: but he knew that he needed to go through those workouts. 754 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 1: I know he can run faster than four or five three. 755 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: I've personally seen him do that many times, but I 756 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: don't the rest of it. Some of the feedback he 757 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: got was that the footwork was still great. He dropped 758 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: the ball. He was really kind of beating himself up 759 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: a bit, and the rest of his teammates were giving 760 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,919 Speaker 1: him a hard time because he dropped four or five 761 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: balls in the cornerback workout drills and they're like, well, 762 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 1: that's why you were converted from wide receiver to defensive back. 763 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. It's the same. Those guys are 764 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 1: in the same boat. Like I could see the teams 765 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: jumping up into the third round and wanting to grab 766 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: him and betting that with some good health and good 767 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: luck for both of those guys that they can be 768 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: in a secondary at the next level for a long time. 769 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 1: Or I can see teams having concerns and letting that 770 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: linger a little bit longer to the fifth or sixth 771 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 1: or later. We'll see what happens. But the upside of 772 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: those guys, if you're willing to roll the dice a bit, 773 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 1: you can get some really good players, but it probably 774 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: will take a little bit of courage on both fronts 775 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 1: if you're gonna move up a bit. Austin, great stuff 776 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: is always Bud love talking to you.

Welcome into Cleveland Daily in Cleveland. 786 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 1: Give me you know what happened twenty two years ago today, 787 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: twenty two years ago. It's tough and you're not gonna 788 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: get it unless you saw it. So this was the 789 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 1: day Randy Johnson hit the dove out of the air 790 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: spring train spring training game. So I saw this morning. 791 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,760 Speaker 1: The guy, the guy who got it to go viral. 792 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 1: Apparently this was down in Tucson, University of Arizona and 793 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: I think they may have been playing the University of Arizona. 794 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,399 Speaker 1: He was in with the Diamondbacks like a split squad. Yeah, 795 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: And there was no there was no telecast of it, 796 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: so the only camera was the center field camera. That 797 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: was the only thing that had images of it. This 798 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: guy goes and gets the tape and took it to 799 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: local news and either Tucson or Phoenix, and that's how 800 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: it went out. It was truly a one and a 801 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 1: billion shot, like a fastball hitting a bird, rating a bird. Yeah, yeah, 802 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean by the time. Yeah, there were feathers, that's all. 803 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: I was a puff of feathers. I don't even know 804 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: if anybody even realized right away what happened. How would you. 805 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: Let's here a thud and then that's it. It's absolutely crazy, 806 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: crazy crazy crazy. Wow. Yeah, twenty two years ago, so 807 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 1: we're getting old. Yeah, and the fact that the only 808 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 1: way twenty two years ago it got seen is because 809 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: of a center field camera. That's it. No camera phones, No, 810 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: I remember if something like that happened today. Yeah, no, 811 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: pat clip right away. So we used to do I 812 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: was in local television at the time, and there was 813 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 1: a I was CBS affiliate, so there was a CBS feed, 814 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 1: and then there was a CNN feed that we paid for, 815 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: and sports would come like twenty minutes. It's like usually 816 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: the last fifteen minutes of every hour. So as opposed 817 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: to like just getting any highlights you wanted, they would 818 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: have a fifteen minute feed of the highlights of the 819 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,839 Speaker 1: sports of the day. So if you wanted to run, 820 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: like if this would in the old days, if this 821 00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 1: like here in town, if you wanted to run and 822 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 1: some out of market NBA highlights, the only way to 823 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: get him was on that feed. They would put them 824 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: up and you'd be mercy to whatever they put on 825 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: the feed. That's all you'd get. It's all. You could 826 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: pick the highlights you wanted and they would always have 827 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: a miscellaneous would be in the last five five minutes 828 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 1: of the feed. And'll never forget when this thing came down, 829 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: looking at it, being like and then I ended my 830 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,359 Speaker 1: sportscast that night with it with this video like, you're 831 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 1: not going to believe what happened down in spring training. 832 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: So in those days, you couldn't just put it on Twitter, no, 833 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: and let it go. No, and like the next day 834 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: it's ever getting pushed out. See it, you're done. You 835 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 1: might have missed it. It might not tell you anywhere. No, 836 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 1: it wasn't until social media, YouTube all that stuff got 837 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: a second life. But up until that point you had 838 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 1: to see it that in that moment or else you'd 839 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: never see it again. Sports Center picked it up on 840 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: all of it. It went in the definition of viral 841 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: for those days. We have a pro day today will 842 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,960 Speaker 1: leave us down in Lexington, frank Wich, Scott Fitterer both 843 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: going to be there. No ownership there, huh No, dialed 844 00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 1: back a little bit. There's there's how you go on that. 845 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll and John Schneider will be there. Seattle's taking 846 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: all these end. He was down in Tuscaloose. I saw 847 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: that picture with Pete and uh Saban down in Tuscaloosa 848 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: from yesterday. So he was in Columbus Wednesday. So they're 849 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: sitting there at five. I mean maybe, I mean, what 850 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: do they signed gino three year deal? Yeah? Yeah, but 851 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, who knows how quickly they could 852 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: get out of it if they wanted to, and they 853 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: have the two first round picks, so they could they 854 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 1: could theoretically make a move there. Mike Vrabel, he's taken 855 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 1: them all into Tennessee's not in any position to get 856 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: to a quarterback, are they? I don't think so. I mean, 857 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 1: you would go anybody's smart would go to the Ohio 858 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 1: State and Alabama pro days anyway. And maybe Vrabel just 859 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: feels that way, like go to every pro day that 860 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,839 Speaker 1: every big time school has, and Kentucky's become a big 861 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: time school season eleven, so I guess maybe, Well he's 862 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 1: also probably looking at, you know, all the other guys 863 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:58,919 Speaker 1: that Alabama, Ohio State, and Kentucky have yeah, it's maybe 864 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 1: he's looking at Jackson's Smith. Yeah, yeah, going, well, we 865 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 1: gave away a guy last yere you go, can we 866 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 1: get it? We can scoop that guy up. Um oh, 867 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: this is pretty interesting. I didn't see this. Get you 868 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,240 Speaker 1: have the details on this. Broncos looking for an upgraded 869 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: or brand new stadium. Yes, they have started quietly, although 870 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 1: it became not so quiet yesterday. They've sent surveys out 871 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: to all of their season ticket holders, corporate partners, suite holders. 872 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 1: How can we improve the stadium experience? And it's a 873 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: pretty detailed, in depth survey. So well, how I just 874 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: I'm curious. So now it's called Empower Field. It was 875 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: Investco at Mile High. Um, I remember when this thing opened? Correct, 876 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: It's so it opened an O one. Huh So it 877 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: opened an no one. I mean ours was ninety nine. 878 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 1: Any well, yeah, all right. So they're so they they're 879 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: they're looking at what to do here. Their latest survey, 880 00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: sent to season ticket holders and big wigs asked asked 881 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,800 Speaker 1: fans a battery of questions, including several about a potential 882 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: news stadium. Some of those questions included what would an 883 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 1: authentically Denver or authentically Colorado Stadium look like. What our 884 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: favorite roof configurations in order of preference at a new stadium. 885 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 1: Broncos ownership has not yet made a decision on whether 886 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: construct a new stadium. They have been researching the project 887 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: for months with focus groups and the season ticket survey 888 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: as part of the process. You've been out there. You 889 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: guys always loved that place, right, I thought the stadium 890 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: was great. Yeah, again, it's outdoors, they do. They note 891 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: the stadium currently undergoing more than one hundred million dollars 892 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: in upgrades, including expanding the scoreboard above the south stands, 893 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 1: creating the fourth largest video board in the NFL. Still, 894 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: the survey acknowledge that the Broncos are exploring the possibility 895 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:58,240 Speaker 1: of constructing a new, state of the art football stadium. Well, 896 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: here's the deal. I mean, if that's a city, if 897 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: they decide if they put a dome on it, then 898 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: they can have a Super Bowl a second, they can 899 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: have anything they want. They could have Final Fours, they could. 900 00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 1: It's a huge city. Stupid, the airport sucks, but other 901 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: than that, it's it's a win across the board. Wow, 902 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 1: that's interesting to me, Like, if you're building a new stadium, 903 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: and actually had a guy. We were having this conversation 904 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 1: about the horseshoe down at a highest state about because 905 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: they just got to improve that thing, and he was like, 906 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: I would build He an architect, reached out to me 907 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 1: and he was like, you could put a dome on 908 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,480 Speaker 1: that thing, similar to the Vikings. Everyone points to that 909 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: Vikings one because it's got the translucent ceiling so it 910 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: has that open air feel without being open air. And 911 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 1: everybody points that one, like you put one of those 912 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: in Denver and even if you could open up the 913 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 1: two ends so it gets a breeze running through it. 914 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 1: Because some of those fall days in Denver are perfect, 915 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: absolute perfection, and they don't while they get the cold, 916 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 1: they don't get the absurd weather we do. They don't 917 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 1: get Groppel, they don't get like Lake of Fact, they 918 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 1: don't get rain turned to snow turned to tornadoes. Like 919 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 1: they get snow and it gets cold, but it's not 920 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: like it is here in terms of the wild card weather. Correct. 921 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 1: And I mean when we won there on that Saturday 922 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:16,399 Speaker 1: night in nineteen yeah, no eighteen, yez, my first year, 923 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 1: that's coal eighteen. I mean it was it was cold, 924 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 1: but it wasn't awful. No, it's okay. It was comfortable. 925 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: It wasn't anything bad. I love the stadium. I thought 926 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 1: the stadium is actually really nice. But obviously if you 927 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: have owner new owners and new owners want to build 928 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: you a dome and you don't even have we're not 929 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: sure you even have a quarterback to build it around. 930 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, no, I think I would be shocked if 931 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: you build a new one now and it's not a dome. 932 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: It's just so much more valuable. Yeah, it is, and 933 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: you control the conditions. It's just so much more finite. 934 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliot's wish list of teams for next season Eagles, Bengals, 935 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,240 Speaker 1: and Jets. The Eagles saying they haven't engaged. The Bengals 936 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: sing that as well, corrected him today and said, yeah, 937 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: we haven't talked to him. Yeah, which is you know what, 938 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: they wouldn't admit it if they had. I thought the 939 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: only thing was interesting about him, including the Bengals, was 940 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 1: Mixon's not gone yet. Kind of leads you to believe 941 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: that maybe mix and will be gone. They've already lost 942 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: p Rhyan, so they need a little bit at running 943 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,719 Speaker 1: back on that side. I feel like that's an ezekiel 944 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: wish list, and I'm not sure that there's any reciprocation 945 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,840 Speaker 1: going on from any of the one of those three parties. 946 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: I think he could do quite well as and he's 947 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 1: so good in pass pro. I think there'd be value 948 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: for him in either Cincinnati or or Philly. I think 949 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: he could do well in both of those cases. I 950 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 1: think I know z thinks he's washed. I think he's 951 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,399 Speaker 1: got a little juice still in his tank. He's been 952 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: banged up last couple of years. He don't have to 953 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: be in every down and that's in those situations. No, 954 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: not at all. Vegas Aces and Raiders owner Mark Davis 955 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 1: announcing Tom Brady has acquired an ownership interest in the 956 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: world champion Las Vegas Aces. Tom's trying to find his why. Man, 957 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is the road you want 958 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:05,920 Speaker 1: to go down. But maybe it allows him to get 959 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: into ownership in Vegas though with the Raiders, maybe allows 960 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 1: him to be a minority owner there. It's just weird 961 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: like that that came out today and I just looked 962 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 1: at it and just like, what, Yeah, you could have 963 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 1: seen at some point that being part of like him 964 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 1: playing for the Raiders. But it does feel like as 965 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 1: the day's stack, we'll get more and more emphatic that 966 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: do you want do you want to be in cahoots 967 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 1: with Mark Davis? No? I mean what probably not. That's 968 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 1: what I don't understand what the tie is to the 969 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 1: w NBA franchise. So I think when he when he 970 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: got the situation with didn't that come with the deal 971 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: with the Raiders. Wasn't that part of it with the stadium, 972 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 1: like he was going to take that on. Maybe I 973 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: could be speaking recklessly. They're very likely that I am, 974 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,359 Speaker 1: but I think both. I think that was all kind 975 00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,240 Speaker 1: of tied in with that.

He had a call 1013 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: frience call with the media. This was just from a 1014 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: couple of days ago. Here's some highlights from that ninety 1015 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 1: minute presser talking a lot of things that will be 1016 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 1: important to you. Let's have a listen. I was curious 1017 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,879 Speaker 1: of what your current assessment of Paris Johnson is as 1018 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: a draft and develop offensive tackle in terms of a 1019 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:20,320 Speaker 1: Paris Johnson Junior. Love the versatility, you know, left tackle 1020 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 1: this year, right guard. You know, you look at the 1021 00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 1: Bears and you say, okay, yeah, you can play left tackle, 1022 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: you can project the right tackle. He's played guard. He 1023 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,160 Speaker 1: at least played on the right side of guard. And 1024 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 1: that's the kind of guy an Ohio State with Justin Field. 1025 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: Do you think about him as a guy who continues 1026 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 1: to develop emerge. He's only had like I said, he 1027 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 1: had one year at left tackle, at the guard. He's 1028 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 1: still a developing player, which you like. He has not 1029 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 1: played his best football yet. So I just felt like 1030 00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 1: the Bears, you know, now, with Jaitlyn Carter off the 1031 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: board and that mock draft, I went to the next 1032 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,040 Speaker 1: best option, which was the offensive tackle. Hey, Mal, thanks 1033 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 1: for doing it. I'm wondering, who are the top defensive 1034 00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: tackles and could you see one of them worth thirteenth pick? 1035 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: Are they more toward lower the bottom of the first round, Rich, 1036 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:09,320 Speaker 1: That's a great question. I went with Jalen Carter gone obviously. 1037 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 1: You know when you talk about pick six, some people 1038 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 1: think he could drop a little bit. I don't anywhere 1039 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:16,880 Speaker 1: between five and ten. Jalen Carter to come off the 1040 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 1: board as obviously before pick thirteen. Now if they got 1041 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: dann Mber Warren Snap dropped to twelve, I believe Rich 1042 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 1: when he came out, so you never know, you never know, 1043 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: But so if he was there, certainly Jalen Carter. But 1044 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 1: the guy that's red hot right now and I have 1045 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: him going in the later first. I almost put him 1046 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 1: in ten to Philadelphia's at a Tommy wa At a 1047 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: bare from Northwestern. He had production at Northwestern. He was 1048 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 1: forcing fumbles, he had a lot of quarterback pressures. You know, 1049 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,879 Speaker 1: he's over two eighty. He ran four four nine. He's 1050 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: got long arms. He's a great kid, recruited by Army 1051 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,600 Speaker 1: Air Force, ends up at Northwestern. So he would be 1052 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:54,479 Speaker 1: next to Collijah Kancy from Pits. A three technique, super quick, 1053 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,239 Speaker 1: it's about six one two eighty, ran really well if 1054 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,360 Speaker 1: to common, actually round better than Aaron Donald. Doesn't have 1055 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 1: the arm length though. Brian Brazie at Clemson, you know, 1056 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 1: it's this situation, the anguish mentally anguish with his sister 1057 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: passing away, and then he had the medical situation. He 1058 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:12,920 Speaker 1: had the ACL two years ago. He would look refreshed 1059 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 1: and regenerated at the at the combine, looked really good. 1060 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,839 Speaker 1: Brian came out of Damascus, Maryland. He's a local kid 1061 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: here from the Maryland area. Great family, a great kid. 1062 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 1: I think he's in the late first round. Nick now 1063 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,919 Speaker 1: as well. So those are the four rich first round 1064 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,200 Speaker 1: defensive tackles. Carter and I think at a Bar as 1065 00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: something defensive end. I think he's a three technique, and 1066 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 1: then Cancy and then Brazie, Hey, mal, I wanted to 1067 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: ask about the Browns. They don't pick until forty two, 1068 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,880 Speaker 1: So number one, How hard is that when you know 1069 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:44,319 Speaker 1: there's so much variables before you pick, and then you 1070 00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: mentioned some of the speed receivers. But that appears to 1071 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 1: be the Browns number one need of right now. So 1072 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 1: who would you like for them at forty two? Yeah, 1073 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: as you had to say right now, that's sting. You say, 1074 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: which receiver could still be there? Jayden Reid Michigan State 1075 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,080 Speaker 1: would be a guy. Think to look at it, there's 1076 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: not a lot going one at that particular spot. There's 1077 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 1: a slot guy in Josh Downs. Jaylen Hyatt, Tennessee is 1078 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 1: a speed option. Could he be there? Yeah? He could? 1079 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 1: Could he go into Lake first? Yeah, if you want 1080 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 1: a guy could take a top off the defense and 1081 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 1: had a heck of a year as a deep threat 1082 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,239 Speaker 1: for heading and hooker average almost twenty yards to catch 1083 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 1: a ton of touchdowns. It would be Jalen Hyatt, So, 1084 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,720 Speaker 1: Jalen High possibly Jayden Reid Michigan State. I think would 1085 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 1: be there at that particular point of the first of 1086 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:29,839 Speaker 1: the second round. And if you're looking for a guy, 1087 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,399 Speaker 1: like I say, one day three of the draft. If 1088 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,799 Speaker 1: he drops, it's gonna be interesting, kay Sean Booty at 1089 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 1: LSU if he drops into day three. A couple of 1090 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 1: years ago, he looked like a guy was gonna be 1091 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 1: a first round pick and just hasn't worked out, So 1092 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 1: he would be a guy somebody's gonna roll the dice 1093 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 1: one at that particular point. Well, I know you talked 1094 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,440 Speaker 1: about being curious about how Jackson Smith and Jigboat will 1095 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 1: run today, but I'm curious in your comprehensive evaluation of him. 1096 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 1: How do you weigh two and twenty two versus two 1097 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:57,399 Speaker 1: thou and twenty one and try to put that whole 1098 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:00,959 Speaker 1: puzzle together. Dan, It's not easy struggle with that because 1099 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:02,879 Speaker 1: I had him as a sixth best player coming into 1100 00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 1: the year on the big board back in August, and 1101 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,399 Speaker 1: I say, okay, why am I moving a guy down 1102 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,320 Speaker 1: when he didn't play. He had a hamstring it was 1103 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 1: legitimate injuries. I say, well, he could have played. Well, 1104 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 1: I know amstring injuries, and you can they can bother 1105 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 1: you to the point where you don't feel comfortable to playing. 1106 00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 1: So that's that's you know, you look at how he 1107 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 1: did it to Comboty was smooth like he had been 1108 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 1: at Ohio. Say, he tested well. He was elite in 1109 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,279 Speaker 1: terms of what he did there. He was gonna be 1110 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 1: running today. He'll be running routes today as well. Was C. J. 1111 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 1: Strout throwing the football to Marvin Harrison Junior and Jackson 1112 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 1: Smith and Jig But today I would have liked this, Obviously, 1113 00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 1: would have loved to seeing him duplicate what he did 1114 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: the previous year. But that previous year as a slot guy. 1115 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 1: You think about having Garrett Wilson, and you think about 1116 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 1: having a guy Crystal LaVey. The way they moved him 1117 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: around they did. He didn't have to deal with any 1118 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,920 Speaker 1: pressing net, to deal with anybody harassing him coming off 1119 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. He didn't have to deal with 1120 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 1: any of that. How will you adapt for that in 1121 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 1: the NFL is a question. But he outproduced in terms 1122 00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:00,560 Speaker 1: of the receptions, receiving yards average per catchum. You know 1123 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 1: Alabby and Wilson. That was my touchdowns. But he had 1124 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 1: a heck of a year. So I think somebodys have 1125 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,399 Speaker 1: said to me, it's like Derek Stingley junior. Dan, Yeah, 1126 00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,000 Speaker 1: he didn't have the play. Did you hold that against him. 1127 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:13,359 Speaker 1: He still went with third overall, Jackson Smith and jac 1128 00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 1: basically didn't play. Are gonna hold that against him? With 1129 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: the hamstre He's still gonna go high. So I have 1130 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: him at what he thought about him at fourteen. If 1131 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,960 Speaker 1: he runs under four or five today, mcshaye thought Todd 1132 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: said four to four eight. He thinks, so run he 1133 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: runs under four or five because I estimated to be 1134 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 1: about four or five five. I think he goes in 1135 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 1: the top fifteen guaranteed. Do you think that that nil 1136 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 1: is affecting now the draft and are you seeing more 1137 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 1: guys that you thought would come out staying because of 1138 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 1: the NL nil option Anngelique, that's probably true that they 1139 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 1: are now getting the kind of money in college to 1140 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 1: stay and not if it's risky, if it's if they're 1141 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 1: smart about it, if they really investigate and say, okay, 1142 00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: what's the worst case scenario, Angelique and look at it 1143 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 1: that way and say, okay, I can really better my 1144 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 1: draft position by going back, I can get money from 1145 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 1: the NIL. Then yeah, I think it allows them a 1146 00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,680 Speaker 1: better option than saying I got to force my way 1147 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: into the NFL. Maybe overrate my situation just kind of 1148 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 1: be realistic with it. Get the right kind of reports 1149 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 1: and objective reports. Listen to those objective reports, and always 1150 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: look worst case. And if they always say if you're 1151 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 1: happy with the worst case, then come out. If you're 1152 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:22,640 Speaker 1: not happy with the worst case, you got to stay in. 1153 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: And that was before nil asually. So now with that, 1154 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 1: I l I think it almost as guarantees you that, hey, 1155 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 1: if I'm getting the worst case and I don't like 1156 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 1: the worst i gotta go back. So I think it 1157 00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: gives them that flexibility. Now, the big picture question for 1158 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:38,000 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks, if we could have four in the first 1159 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 1: four picks or four in the first five picks, I think, 1160 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,200 Speaker 1: is what you had? Is this an all time quarterback 1161 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,680 Speaker 1: class or is this a case of everybody there works 1162 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 1: so few last year and everybody is this need or 1163 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 1: is this an all time great quarterback class? And could 1164 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,960 Speaker 1: Baltimore join that mix of teams looking to trade up? 1165 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,040 Speaker 1: You think if things go a certain way with Lamar Ryan, 1166 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 1: it's great. You have to wait and see on the 1167 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 1: whole of Marth. Then you're watching that. I'm watching that, 1168 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:06,160 Speaker 1: and we'll see what happens. And seem to be any options. 1169 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,479 Speaker 1: Baltimore is the option but well, that's a little story 1170 00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 1: for another day. But I think when you look at 1171 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 1: the quarterback class this year, Bryce always had the A 1172 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 1: week grade. You knew the size was going to be 1173 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: an issue, but you know he's a great quarterback, so 1174 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:18,960 Speaker 1: he was going to be up there at the top. 1175 00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 1: You knew that CJ. Strout had a chance to be 1176 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,440 Speaker 1: based on what he did last year, and he just 1177 00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 1: went out and did exactly the same thing. I mean, 1178 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 1: he's at seventy percent the last two years. He doesn't 1179 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,560 Speaker 1: throw intersections, and what he did against Georgia, you wish 1180 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,840 Speaker 1: you would have seen that you have any rushing touchdowns. 1181 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: So again, he'll be able to use those legs in 1182 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 1: the NFL to be the defense. So that put him 1183 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: way up there. If they richardson just one talented. I 1184 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 1: think that Utah game, I think people look at that 1185 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 1: and say, boy, if we could just bottle that game. 1186 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 1: We always say for CJ. Strout, we could bottle the 1187 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,880 Speaker 1: Georgia game, right, we could bottle that Utah game. For 1188 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:55,000 Speaker 1: for Anthony, boy, he's spectacular. So again, and I think, 1189 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: like he said, if he can just figure out and 1190 00:59:57,160 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 1: do what Josh did, Josh Allen to figure it out, 1191 00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: get the people. Everybody has to work on those things, 1192 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 1: and he can work on it and hopefully fix that. 1193 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 1: So I think you know the talent of them then 1194 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 1: Will Levis. I love Will Levis. Some don't think he's 1195 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,439 Speaker 1: gonna go as high as that. I think you throw 1196 01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 1: out twenty twenty two. Why would you evaluate twenty twenty 1197 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:19,000 Speaker 1: two when he was playing with significant injuries, beat up 1198 01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 1: from head to toe, he couldn't move. He had nine 1199 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns in twenty twenty one. He had zero over 1200 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:26,800 Speaker 1: the last eight games this year because he couldn't move, 1201 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,560 Speaker 1: He couldn't plan, he couldn't throw. That affects your accuracy. 1202 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 1: He was behind in games where he just kind of 1203 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 1: threw it up, the interceptions where it didn't even matter. 1204 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 1: What's the difference. You're gonna lose by fifteen twenty year, 1205 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 1: he'll lose by thirty thirty five. Does it really matter? 1206 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:42,960 Speaker 1: He said, he stayed out there and he gutted it out, 1207 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: and he was showed up for their bowl game to 1208 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 1: at least be there. He didn't. He wasn't absent from 1209 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: their bowl game. He didn't not travel for their bowl game. 1210 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 1: He wasn't not with their team. For their Bowl game. 1211 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 1: He was with them every step of the way. That 1212 01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: showed something. So see perfect, No the turnovers. You gotta 1213 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 1: fix that, Daniel Jones, fix the judge. It fixed it. 1214 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 1: I think you can fix that. So I'm hiring Will 1215 01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: let Us and some people are we'll see. But to 1216 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 1: answer your question, I think it came together for those guys. 1217 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: Stroud and Richardson had that one great game, but talent 1218 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 1: of those guys is gonna win out. And Bryce Young 1219 01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 1: had always been way up there. We'll have three, possibly 1220 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: four going very very high, and all four should have 1221 01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 1: a chance to be if things fall right, have a 1222 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 1: chance to be great. Now, Anthony Richardson, there's that boomer 1223 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 1: bust something Will let Us is boomer bus Bryce Young 1224 01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: size makes you worry, right and C J. Stroud will 1225 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:33,920 Speaker 1: he take that Georgia game and build on it. So 1226 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 1: there is concerns with every one, but they're still all 1227 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:40,160 Speaker 1: four going to go very high regarding one versus two, 1228 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 1: Stroud versus Young is paper thin gap between them now 1229 01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 1: and then please explain why you why you put him 1230 01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: up higher and why others are Is it because we're 1231 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:53,440 Speaker 1: maybe putting a little bit too much and what we 1232 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 1: saw at the combine or the post game tape stuff 1233 01:01:56,560 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 1: that team evaluators always say that they believe is paramount 1234 01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: to What do you attribute to all this? John, I 1235 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of factors that go into to 1236 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 1: try to figure this out. Uh. Does Frank Reich stick 1237 01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:11,840 Speaker 1: to what he's done with the bigger quarterback? Uh? And 1238 01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,240 Speaker 1: go with C. J. Stroud? Does he go with the 1239 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 1: ultimate outlier? There's some people that feel like you never 1240 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:22,600 Speaker 1: should draft an outlier outliers. Will you can't do it? Uh? 1241 01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: Bill Poe And always drolled that into me when he 1242 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: was at the ESPN. But Bill always said, Hall of 1243 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:30,439 Speaker 1: Fame general manager, super Bowl winning general manager, always said, 1244 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 1: you don't draft outliers. Uh. You know, Bryce Young is 1245 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 1: an outlier. There's no way other around that. Um. You know, 1246 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 1: so I think that's the And HEA's a great player, 1247 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: So you know, I mean people said, go back to 1248 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,520 Speaker 1: Todd McShay. I've said, hey, he's Patrick Mahomes, Yeah, he's 1249 01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 1: Steph Curry. Okay, if you're Patrick Mahomes Steph Curry, you're 1250 01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:53,680 Speaker 1: going number one. But then the size factors in, Uh, 1251 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, if you were a little bigger, Yeah, and 1252 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm not really talking about the height as much. It's 1253 01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 1: the way can he maintain that two four. That's why 1254 01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 1: I think today will be important. I'll ascuse me. Tomorrow 1255 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: will be important for that reason to see what he 1256 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 1: is when they bring him in for their private workouts. 1257 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 1: So it's really it is you're really close. You're really close, 1258 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:14,680 Speaker 1: and I think Levis is in that mix for me, 1259 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,600 Speaker 1: and Richardson's in there. I think all four of those 1260 01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: guys are really close. You know. I went with Bryce 1261 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 1: Young because I set the bart one ninety five and 1262 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 1: I said, if he's one ninety five, we're heavier, I'm 1263 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:28,160 Speaker 1: going with him. He was two o four, So that's 1264 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 1: why I went with Bryce Shung. So I went Young, 1265 01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 1: Levis Strout, Levison Strout basically the same grade, and Richardson 1266 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 1: right there as well. So again for Carolina, it's gonna 1267 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 1: be interesting to see if right deviates and goes away 1268 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 1: from what he has done at quarterback to go with Young, 1269 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 1: or he sticks with what he's had with the bigger 1270 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 1: quarterback and goes with the sixty three two hundred and 1271 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 1: fifteen two hundred and twenty pounds c J. Strout. So 1272 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:52,040 Speaker 1: that's gonna be fun to see how it plays out. 1273 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if they made that decision yet or not. 1274 01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 1: Sometimes teams have made that call by the time Pro 1275 01:03:57,360 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 1: Day stake play. I've had GM say I knew going 1276 01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:02,880 Speaker 1: into the day who I was taking a quarterback to 1277 01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 1: all the Pro days, and I was there for everyone, 1278 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 1: but I knew who my quarterback was before the Pro 1279 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 1: Day's even happened. I had another informant GM and say, hey, 1280 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 1: it's not the Pro day. Pro days aren't important. It's 1281 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 1: the private workouts for quarterbacks that are gonna be the 1282 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:18,800 Speaker 1: most critical part of the equation. So we'll see. By 1283 01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 1: the time we get the late April, we're still over 1284 01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: a month away. It's gonna be fun to see how 1285 01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 1: this plays out. Because, like I said, you could argue 1286 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 1: either quarterback just the right pick, and they have to 1287 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 1: pick one. So that's why sometimes it's better to get 1288 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 1: the guy that's left over that the other guy that's good, 1289 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 1: the guy they don't take and take him. Sometimes that 1290 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 1: works out better in the long run. Sometimes it doesn't. 1291 01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: There's no perfect way to evaluate quarterbacks. There's no blueprint 1292 01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:44,960 Speaker 1: for success. It's a lot of hit or misses, as 1293 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 1: you see. But for quarterbacks, there's got to be your 1294 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 1: gut field. You got to trust your gut on quarterbacks, 1295 01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: you really do. Everybody sees everything. We see all this, 1296 01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: We get all the numbers. You know, you know everything 1297 01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:57,400 Speaker 1: you can everybody. The information is all out there. There's 1298 01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,919 Speaker 1: no private information, things that they know that we don't. 1299 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,960 Speaker 1: Now everybody knows everything. So it gets down though, you 1300 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 1: know who do you feel always best suited for your team? 1301 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 1: That brings that it factor, brings that attitude, brings that 1302 01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:11,600 Speaker 1: approach that you want. That's why Brayce Young to me, 1303 01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 1: that's why. That's another reason I gave him an edge. 1304 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,959 Speaker 1: And the one ninety five was the bar with the weight. 1305 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 1: But he's got that thing that says, just let me 1306 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 1: be out there with my team and I'm gonna win games, 1307 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna win the big I'm gonna do what 1308 01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:27,320 Speaker 1: it takes. And I just I see things that nobody 1309 01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:31,439 Speaker 1: else sees. I can decipher things quicker than anybody else can. 1310 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 1: That's Bryce young strength. That's what he does best. Can 1311 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: he stay healthy for a long NFL season? That's what 1312 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: worries me. A lot of stuff there with mel Kiper 1313 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 1: also some breaking news while we were enjoying listening to 1314 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:44,080 Speaker 1: all that and get a little bit smarter on the 1315 01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 1: draft field. Yates the first report the Browns are signing 1316 01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 1: former Seahawks wide receiver Marquise Goodwin to a one year 1317 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:52,760 Speaker 1: deal per source, has been confirmed by many people after that, 1318 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,240 Speaker 1: so that he now joins Elijah more in our receiving. Remember, 1319 01:05:56,280 --> 01:06:00,200 Speaker 1: Marquise Goodwin was in here on Monday into Tuesday and 1320 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:02,800 Speaker 1: was a guy that certainly you looked at and thought, well, 1321 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 1: that would solve that. Then they went out and get 1322 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 1: Elijah Moore, and you thought, well maybe, But if you 1323 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,760 Speaker 1: listen to the show, we talked about this, weapons weapons, weapons, weapons, weapons, 1324 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,160 Speaker 1: get us more of them. You had to, and so 1325 01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,200 Speaker 1: he is a big time weapon. You're talking about it. 1326 01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 1: For a career average yard per reception of sixteen point two, 1327 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 1: so this is a deep ball threat in every way. 1328 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:26,040 Speaker 1: He is thirty two years of age, last most recently 1329 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:29,680 Speaker 1: with Seattle twenty seven catches three eighty seven fourteen yards 1330 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 1: per reception, four touchdowns with the Seahawks. The previous two 1331 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 1: years from that fifteen and a half fifteen point seven 1332 01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:38,080 Speaker 1: had a stretch with the Niners, which would be a 1333 01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:40,560 Speaker 1: similar offense to the one that we ran in seventeen 1334 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 1: and eighteen where he averaged seventeen yards of catches. Best 1335 01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:47,200 Speaker 1: year was twenty seventeen fifty six catches, nine hundred and 1336 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 1: sixty two yards and seventeen point two yards per reception. 1337 01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:55,200 Speaker 1: So this is another big time weapon that goes into 1338 01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 1: this mix, and you needed to have a bunch of them. 1339 01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 1: And now I think your wide receiver room is almost 1340 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:03,000 Speaker 1: entirely set. You got Amari, you got DPJ, you got 1341 01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 1: Elijah More, you got Marquise Good when you got David Bell, 1342 01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:08,160 Speaker 1: who's a high round draft pick from a year ago, 1343 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:09,920 Speaker 1: who's got to show you a little bit more. I 1344 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:12,360 Speaker 1: think it would be. I think it's those five, and 1345 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 1: then it's Jachem Grant would be the sixth if he's 1346 01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:19,040 Speaker 1: healthy as a return man, I would say Schwartz, Felton, Woods. 1347 01:07:19,200 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 1: All those guys would have to work like heck to 1348 01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 1: make the team because you're not going to keep many 1349 01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 1: more than five five and a half. If Grant being 1350 01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:29,200 Speaker 1: the five and a half, if he just is the 1351 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 1: return guy, if he can get back to health, Yeah, 1352 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 1: it's an interesting it's a good signing. You mentioned it, 1353 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, it's not a guy the most 1354 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: catches he's had in his career is fifty six, but 1355 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:42,360 Speaker 1: he makes the most of his catches when he catches 1356 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 1: the football, like he gets down field, he can score 1357 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:52,000 Speaker 1: the football super important. And as you mentioned, it's another weapon. 1358 01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 1: Like this free agent class of wide receivers isn't something 1359 01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:57,960 Speaker 1: you write home about. That's why the Browns went out 1360 01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 1: and got Elijah Moore. And but there were opportunities to 1361 01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,760 Speaker 1: get guys, maybe not necessarily in the first week a 1362 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:08,200 Speaker 1: free agency, but then you know you have the levels 1363 01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 1: of free agry where you have the next week, then 1364 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,479 Speaker 1: the next week after that, here's a tier two guy 1365 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 1: coming on board of the Browns. And again it's another 1366 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver weapon who's a veteran that can help out 1367 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,080 Speaker 1: that locker room and elite tweet, elite traits. So this 1368 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 1: is a deep ball guy, is what he is. When 1369 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 1: you talk about that yards per catch. Two seasons with 1370 01:08:26,960 --> 01:08:30,679 Speaker 1: over seventeen yards per catch, so there's that deep ball component. 1371 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he's got career long catches eighty four yards, 1372 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 1: eighty three yards. It's a guy who could take it 1373 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: to the house. He's getting a little bit longer in 1374 01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:39,040 Speaker 1: the teeth, but that doesn't mean that on fifteen plays 1375 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,120 Speaker 1: a game, he can't make the defense pay attention to 1376 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:42,960 Speaker 1: where he is on the field, and that's really all 1377 01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 1: that's needed. Elijah Moore is a true I mean his 1378 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 1: potential coming out of old mess and what he was 1379 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 1: for a six seven game stretch as a rookie was 1380 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 1: someone who is turning into a one. So now he's 1381 01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 1: got to prove that he still has that in him. 1382 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 1: We're willing to bet that he did. The bet on 1383 01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,960 Speaker 1: that was basically to move back thirty spots in the draft. 1384 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,240 Speaker 1: Is all that that was for a guy who's twenty 1385 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:06,960 Speaker 1: three years of age. So he is a like if 1386 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 1: you were to if I were to guess how this 1387 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,519 Speaker 1: would be, I think it's possible that DPJ and Elijah 1388 01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:13,639 Speaker 1: Moore would be on the outside and Amari would operate 1389 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:16,760 Speaker 1: in the slot some to start the season. But when 1390 01:09:16,760 --> 01:09:19,559 Speaker 1: you're in the four wide set, now Goodwin slides in there, 1391 01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:22,519 Speaker 1: David Bell rotates in through there, Bell slides into the slot. 1392 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:27,720 Speaker 1: This is the other thing that is very apparent. We 1393 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:31,520 Speaker 1: are going to be a much more pass first team 1394 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:36,760 Speaker 1: next season. This offense will make the revolution to that 1395 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 1: through this offseason and quite Frankly, it's the only way 1396 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 1: you can do it. It's the only way you can 1397 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 1: win a super Bowl. If you're trying to win a 1398 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 1: super Bowl, the only way to do it is to 1399 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,600 Speaker 1: throw your way to it. And now you think that 1400 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 1: you have enough weapons to be able to go out 1401 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:50,320 Speaker 1: there and do it. And now in the draft, to me, 1402 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:52,799 Speaker 1: it almost takes wide receiver off the board unless somebody 1403 01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:56,400 Speaker 1: just extraordinary falls to you, because there's there's just not 1404 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 1: space for it. No, and we talked about it, yes, 1405 01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 1: you mentioned it specifically. I mean, the Browns have two thirds, 1406 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 1: two fourth, two fifths, six and a seventh. There's no 1407 01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 1: way they're going to draft eight players. No, no, no, no no, 1408 01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:12,760 Speaker 1: it's got to be they're gonna trade out of some 1409 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:16,479 Speaker 1: of those and push them into future drafts. And yeah, 1410 01:10:16,560 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean if we did the fifty three, Z did 1411 01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:20,640 Speaker 1: the fifty three. I think it was yesterday on the 1412 01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:22,720 Speaker 1: show and we were kind of breaking it down, and 1413 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 1: he thought five to six receivers at most, and the 1414 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:30,080 Speaker 1: sixth was Grant being, you know, kind of a just 1415 01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,000 Speaker 1: if he came back as a full time return guy. 1416 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,640 Speaker 1: But now that five I think is crystallized. It's a 1417 01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:37,160 Speaker 1: Mari it's DPJ, provided they all stay healthy. It's a 1418 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:40,240 Speaker 1: Mari DPJ, Elijah Moore, Marquis Goodwin who comes into the 1419 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 1: fold today reportedly, and then David Bell out of Purdue, 1420 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:44,840 Speaker 1: who they still like but we need to see a 1421 01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:48,240 Speaker 1: little more from him, and certainly was a big time 1422 01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 1: player at Purdue. So I love it because I you 1423 01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:54,640 Speaker 1: there's no such thing as too much of this. You 1424 01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: need all of this. Like, by the way, there will 1425 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 1: be injuries, yeah, So you gotta have enough bodies to 1426 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 1: overcome a five month season. Yeah. And if you don't 1427 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:11,320 Speaker 1: have the depth, you will not succeed. No, And if 1428 01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 1: you have quality, you can you can pick up right 1429 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 1: where you left off. And there's a guy he was 1430 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:24,320 Speaker 1: in the Olympics twenty twelve, qualified for the long jump. Yeah. 1431 01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 1: It's a four time All American at Texas. Yeah. Yeah, 1432 01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 1: I mean an athlete. But you can catch the football, yeah, 1433 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 1: most a thousand yards in twenty seventeen. I love the 1434 01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:39,200 Speaker 1: yards per catch. I think that's pretty sweet. So you 1435 01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 1: need to have more weapons and you're able to do so. 1436 01:11:42,120 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 1: And now that receiver room to me feels like it's complete, 1437 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,799 Speaker 1: so there's no more room. I feel like free agency 1438 01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 1: is getting close to that as well. Yeah. Well the 1439 01:11:51,080 --> 01:11:52,760 Speaker 1: last thing now I think will be and this will 1440 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 1: be something for more of the summer, will be like 1441 01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 1: that veteran d N like a Frank Clark who gets 1442 01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 1: through four agency unsigned. Yeah, that type of guy, like 1443 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,560 Speaker 1: a veteran who wants who wants to come in and 1444 01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:05,960 Speaker 1: play on a smaller deal. We get ten million of 1445 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:10,759 Speaker 1: cap space. June one goes with John Johnson and Clowney Clowney, 1446 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 1: So once that happens, that frees up a little space 1447 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:15,760 Speaker 1: and then we can go maybe big game hunting there 1448 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:17,599 Speaker 1: as well. But I would say yes that the work 1449 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,120 Speaker 1: is largely done for the Browns on that side of 1450 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 1: thing with the trades and for you. I love it. 1451 01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 1: I absolutely love this deal and I think that's a 1452 01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 1: pretty formidable receiver room compared to where it was just 1453 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,960 Speaker 1: a season ago.

And even then, it's even then, 1487 01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:25,479 Speaker 1: it's hard because just from a numbers game, I know. Yeah, 1488 01:14:25,680 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: I mean that's you're filling holes and you're winning.

I think you know you're at draft. 1493 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:47,200 Speaker 1: You're talking defensive line. You need a linebacker. I know 1494 01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 1: we're bringing back everybody, but like a lot of guys 1495 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,160 Speaker 1: don't know. I think you don't really need anything. I mean, 1496 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:54,360 Speaker 1: you you can other than I think you do need 1497 01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 1: interior defensive line, defensive end. I feel like you think 1498 01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:00,600 Speaker 1: you can go to corner. Me. Yeah, I agree with that. 1499 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 1: I think slot corner. You need a lot of depth 1500 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:05,320 Speaker 1: in the safety room. Right now, we have three kind 1501 01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 1: of pros back there. You definitely need another safety that 1502 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:12,160 Speaker 1: could be draft or that could be you know, more 1503 01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:15,519 Speaker 1: guys on these one year deals in free agency.

I know that Fontana has a little pull 1519 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 1: that he has up. Yeah, he likes his brackets and 1520 01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:10,520 Speaker 1: he loves I love the bracket. The best two thousands 1521 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:15,240 Speaker 1: TV show. So we're doing the greatest. Yeah, we're doing 1522 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:19,400 Speaker 1: the greatest TV shows of all time, and we're going 1523 01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:22,759 Speaker 1: to buy did you split him in doo like drama 1524 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:25,599 Speaker 1: versus comedy? Did put them into one? No, we went 1525 01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:28,760 Speaker 1: by decades. So right now we are in the two thousands, 1526 01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 1: and as of this morning, everybody loves Raymond was ahead 1527 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:37,439 Speaker 1: of the wire. So people are idiots, Yes, very much so. 1528 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 1: And now it has rightly turned and the wire is 1529 01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,439 Speaker 1: now supremely in the lead and we shouldn't have any 1530 01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 1: sort of issues. But my god, what was everyone doing? 1531 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:50,800 Speaker 1: How did the OC make this? Like gym? You know 1532 01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:55,880 Speaker 1: who was you know who who nominated the OC? Fontana 1533 01:16:56,320 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 1: Fontana one option and he goes, you know what, Yeah, 1534 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:03,000 Speaker 1: well we'll throw on the OC. So the the OC 1535 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 1: was a phenomenon, though there was a two season window 1536 01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:11,439 Speaker 1: where the OC was a phenomenon. Now there was no 1537 01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 1: path for it forward, unlike nine O two and Oh, 1538 01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 1: it's predecessor in the wealthy teen drama category, from a 1539 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: decade previous. There was no path for it for the 1540 01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 1: college years, like it was. It just just kind of 1541 01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,439 Speaker 1: petered out. Yeah, but the first season or two that 1542 01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 1: was a That show is a bonanza. I mean that 1543 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:34,519 Speaker 1: show spawned like Laguna Beach and all those MTV shows, 1544 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 1: they all came after that show. So yeah, I don't 1545 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:41,000 Speaker 1: have a there was a moment for that show for sure. 1546 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:44,759 Speaker 1: That's odd though, like, how do you so, here's the thing, polish, 1547 01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 1: are you you did? You're not old enough to have 1548 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:48,720 Speaker 1: watched The Wire in real time? Are you not? In 1549 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:51,559 Speaker 1: real time? I went back and rewatched about a year ago, 1550 01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:53,839 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have to do another watching. It's amazing. 1551 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:57,400 Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite shows. Yeah, it's it's you 1552 01:17:57,479 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 1: know that the Sopranos like those were those were so 1553 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 1: they set everything that happened forward, allowed for it. Those 1554 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,559 Speaker 1: type of shows did. But The Wire did not ever 1555 01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:11,920 Speaker 1: win an Emmy. It wasn't really that popular in the 1556 01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:15,680 Speaker 1: moment about No, it wasn't that popular. Critics loved it, 1557 01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:17,800 Speaker 1: but it wasn't something that was talked about in the moment. 1558 01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:21,320 Speaker 1: The Sopranos was a phenomenon um for sure, but The 1559 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 1: Wire was not. It wasn't until afterwards that it got 1560 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:26,679 Speaker 1: a second life when people you know, at the time 1561 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,360 Speaker 1: before there was HBO Max, there was HBO Go, and 1562 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:31,840 Speaker 1: when that happened, like a decade ago, then people were 1563 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,639 Speaker 1: like able to binge it. That's when it picked on 1564 01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:37,160 Speaker 1: another life because it was it was not. I was 1565 01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:39,160 Speaker 1: old enough to remember. It was not a hit in 1566 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:43,479 Speaker 1: the real time. Yeah, so at all. Yeah, So as 1567 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,679 Speaker 1: of right now, this is for the brackets for tonight. 1568 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: We have that seventy show. In one side of the bracket, 1569 01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:54,360 Speaker 1: that seventy show Entourage, Sex in the City, and Niptuck, 1570 01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:57,080 Speaker 1: and then in the other Niptuck's the best of those four. 1571 01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:01,600 Speaker 1: I nominated Niptuck. Niptuck was good. It ran out of 1572 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:02,960 Speaker 1: steam too. There was just so much you could do 1573 01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:05,320 Speaker 1: with plastic surgery in Miami. But the first few seasons 1574 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,960 Speaker 1: that were really strong. Entourage is the most overrated show ever. 1575 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 1: They should have pivoted after Sea, of course you did 1576 01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 1: after season one. They should have pivoted to Piven, like 1577 01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 1: the kids weren't that interesting. Piven was the star of 1578 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,120 Speaker 1: the show. That should have pivoted to Piven and made 1579 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 1: it his show. With idiots as clients that kept coming 1580 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 1: in that he had to deal with. You can't build 1581 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 1: a show off of a star when Vinnie Chase can't act. 1582 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 1: That's the problem with Entourage all there it is. And 1583 01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 1: then the other side of the bracket obviously again together 1584 01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:38,960 Speaker 1: the Wire. Everyone loves Raymond Gray's Anatomy and the OC 1585 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:43,040 Speaker 1: and Wire wins out there. It was another great series 1586 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 1: that kind of goes it was on FX Rescue Me. 1587 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,240 Speaker 1: Rescue Me is great, that got nominated. I don't think 1588 01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:55,080 Speaker 1: it's in the in the overall thirty two man there 1589 01:19:55,200 --> 01:19:58,880 Speaker 1: was Dennis Larry was great in that towed the line 1590 01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 1: on a few things. Well. The best honestly, I think 1591 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:04,720 Speaker 1: the best one of the FX shows in terms of 1592 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 1: start to finish was Justified. Um that was that one 1593 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:12,320 Speaker 1: was the best of all that. Different those are those 1594 01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:15,360 Speaker 1: like comedy, Yeah, the comedy stuff like how do you 1595 01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 1: compare Kenny Powers to the Wire. That's almost impossible. So, 1596 01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:23,680 Speaker 1: like I think there's there's the ones that need to 1597 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:26,120 Speaker 1: be in your list. You need So from AMC, you 1598 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:28,680 Speaker 1: got to have mad Men and Breaking Bad in yep. 1599 01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 1: From from FX, he's got to have so Niptuck's fine, 1600 01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 1: you got to have justified Sons of Anarchy it is, 1601 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:37,920 Speaker 1: and the Shield is another one that was really really good. 1602 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:40,320 Speaker 1: You mentioned Rescue Me FX had some bangers for a 1603 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: minute there, and then HBO you've got to have You've 1604 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:46,679 Speaker 1: got to have the Sopranos, game Wire, Game of Thrones 1605 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 1: succession probably if you're well, if you're doing tooths now, 1606 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:52,559 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be We are doing two thousands, and then 1607 01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 1: next week it's going to be two thousand and tens 1608 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 1: and twenties. A succession will be in that with Game 1609 01:20:57,439 --> 01:21:01,560 Speaker 1: of Thrones. Um. Honestly, the best single season of television 1610 01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:04,200 Speaker 1: I've ever seen is the first season of Deadwood U, 1611 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:06,640 Speaker 1: which was an HBO show about the Black Hills in 1612 01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:09,080 Speaker 1: the eighteen eighties, which is stunningly good. I couldn't get 1613 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 1: it into season one one episode. The first season's unbelievable.

Yeah, but like I don't know, I reject 1634 01:22:14,520 --> 01:22:17,719 Speaker 1: anybody saying that it's that they love salmon. I would 1635 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:21,360 Speaker 1: agree with that. I love a dog today. Any old 1636 01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,960 Speaker 1: school coaches growing up that you couldn't stand as a 1637 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:26,920 Speaker 1: five year old, Jerry Glanville grinding my gears, and you're right, 1638 01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 1: Sam White, since he isn't Cleveland. Bob Knight, you know, 1639 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:34,479 Speaker 1: like Bob Knight as a kid, I hated him. I 1640 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:38,800 Speaker 1: like him. Now I hated Larry Brown. Yeah, it was 1641 01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:40,640 Speaker 1: not a fan of Larry Brown. Well, well he's a 1642 01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 1: Carolina guy. Yeah, so that would make sense. Um, Matt Doherty, 1643 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,920 Speaker 1: I wanted to fight. Yeah, I'm a duke guy. Yeah 1644 01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:49,599 Speaker 1: that Now it was Bob Knight. And then Bob Knight 1645 01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:52,559 Speaker 1: ended up hunting on my uncle's property in Montana every year, 1646 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 1: random pheasant hunting in the middle of north central Montana. 1647 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,400 Speaker 1: So that was always Uh, that was funny how that 1648 01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:01,439 Speaker 1: ended up being way he put on a basketball camp 1649 01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:05,799 Speaker 1: in north central Montanas. You know that was like the exchange. Yeah, 1650 01:23:05,840 --> 01:23:10,479 Speaker 1: to justify at all. Yeah, each Snyder with regards to 1651 01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 1: your traveling dude, always have to carry on we are 1652 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:18,240 Speaker 1: we are four and never check a bag, yes, agreed. Yeah, 1653 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:20,559 Speaker 1: but I mean that's only been possible for us, like 1654 01:23:20,640 --> 01:23:23,080 Speaker 1: in the last year, because I would tell that point 1655 01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:24,840 Speaker 1: you have to take all of the stuff for the kids. 1656 01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:27,479 Speaker 1: I mean they had car seats, all that stuff. This 1657 01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:29,800 Speaker 1: is the now they're all at a high enough weight 1658 01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:33,439 Speaker 1: to where we don't have to have the car seats. Uh, 1659 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 1: Matt Snyder, does anyone know what happened to will Fuller's 1660 01:23:40,080 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 1: would seemed like a low risk Hiro Award weapon you 1661 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:44,880 Speaker 1: can stretch the field is only twenty eight would be cheap. 1662 01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:47,679 Speaker 1: I'm not sure he's in play now for us. Yeah, 1663 01:23:47,720 --> 01:23:51,320 Speaker 1: I clearly that that ship has already sailed. I don't 1664 01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: even know what happened. What did he has? He? Did 1665 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:59,080 Speaker 1: he even play last year? Do you have off field stuff? Yeah? Yeah, 1666 01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 1: I feel like did. I don't know if he's signed 1667 01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:05,760 Speaker 1: with anybody a year ago. So the last time he 1668 01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:09,599 Speaker 1: played was twenty twenty one. He played two games, played 1669 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,360 Speaker 1: three games, started two with Miami in twenty twenty one, 1670 01:24:12,920 --> 01:24:14,760 Speaker 1: so we mentioned him a lot in twenty you know 1671 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:19,240 Speaker 1: last year. I don't. I have no idea he's a 1672 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,639 Speaker 1: first round pick. Yeah, I know how to notre Dame 1673 01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:28,080 Speaker 1: Jeez enough from the clown rapid fire. All right, uncle bow? 1674 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 1: What will it take for the Buckeyes to get back 1675 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:32,760 Speaker 1: to the dance next March? Holtman likely safe because of 1676 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:37,559 Speaker 1: this contract. Correct, Yeah, he's safe. They just need these 1677 01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:39,679 Speaker 1: freshmen to come back. If sends about is a first 1678 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:41,439 Speaker 1: round pick, if somehow he could come back, and they're 1679 01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:43,479 Speaker 1: trying to get it done on the collective. So maybe 1680 01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:45,280 Speaker 1: if he can come back, those four come back. They 1681 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:47,760 Speaker 1: have a top five to six recruiting class in the 1682 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 1: country coming in. If they can land a transfer, they 1683 01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:52,880 Speaker 1: could they could be a real team of consequence next year. 1684 01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 1: But there is some heat on him. I mean, he's 1685 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 1: got to go. Gibby is a fellow falcon A Lum, 1686 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:03,719 Speaker 1: what's your best memory from BG Shoe Gargoyles, Downtown broad 1687 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:06,519 Speaker 1: House and a party I threw called tower Fest that 1688 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 1: might have landed me with a number of law enforcement 1689 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 1: agencies in northwest Ohio. Um, if you could trade places 1690 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,280 Speaker 1: with anyone for a week, who would it be? And 1691 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 1: why just for a week? I always think of, you know, 1692 01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 1: things that I can't do, so like, it would be 1693 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,479 Speaker 1: really fun to be like a Blue Angels pilot for 1694 01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:35,200 Speaker 1: a week. It would be really fun to be like 1695 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,840 Speaker 1: from a bass like Lebron James for week, or Patrick 1696 01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:40,800 Speaker 1: Mahomes for a week, or Rory McElroy for a week. 1697 01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:42,840 Speaker 1: Probably for me it would be Rory because I've always 1698 01:25:42,880 --> 01:25:45,040 Speaker 1: sucked at golf and it would be something to just 1699 01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:47,120 Speaker 1: every time you go up there, you just stripe like 1700 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:51,640 Speaker 1: yesterday every week? Right, Wouldn't that be fun? Did just 1701 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 1: do that? M Z's a really good golfer, so we 1702 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't because he's sent more similar to be able to 1703 01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:00,320 Speaker 1: do that, you'd say, Larry David, Yeah could. I mean 1704 01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:02,719 Speaker 1: so I always think like, well, what's something I can't do? 1705 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,280 Speaker 1: I'd like to do that for a week. Would be fun. 1706 01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 1: Thirty seconds. If you could relive any decade of your life, 1707 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 1: which one would you choose? And why? I'm cool? Where 1708 01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:14,439 Speaker 1: I am? I mean, you want to go back to 1709 01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:18,559 Speaker 1: your twenties. That's a mess. Teens are a mess. Like 1710 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:22,599 Speaker 1: the late nineties. I'm just thriving. It was pretty good. 1711 01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 1: You were thriving. It was pretty good. I mean people 1712 01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:31,200 Speaker 1: might disagree with that.
