Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: Oh good morning everybody. Hope you are.

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 3: Saturday is off to a great start. It mercifully came

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 3: to an end for one Will Levis. We'll get into that.

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 3: We're broadcasting live from the Tirec dot Com studios. Tirec

Speaker 3: recommended installers. Tirec dot com the way tied buying should be,

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 3: Will Levis. He goes thirty third overall guys. There was

10
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 3: a team actually traded up for him, you know, class

11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 3: at fall. He goes to the Tennessee Titans as they

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 3: move up to get him with the second pick of

13
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 3: the second round. And not a bad spot, not a

14
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 3: bad spot to end up, but it was quite the

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 3: long wait there.

16
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

17
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, there is nothing more heartbreaking than watching a man

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 4: who's about to be a millionaire one way or another,

19
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 4: surrounded by beautiful women sweather out.

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 2: I mean no, I honest did feel bad for him.

21
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: I really did.

22
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 4: I've known a lot of guys who have had that experience,

23
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 4: or shouldn't say a lot, but I've known a couple

24
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 4: and to a man every single guy. It's it's completely humiliating,

25
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 4: and it's it's just you know, whatever it is.

26
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,199
Speaker 2: You know, you invite the.

27
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 4: Cameras into your home, and you know it's day two

28
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 4: of the draft and you're expected to be one of

29
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 4: those second rounders, or you're in New York and you're

30
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 4: expected to be one of those first rounders. When your

31
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: name isn't called, all of a sudden, all the doubt

32
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 4: starts creeping in. It's something that athletes have to deal

33
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 4: with on the field constantly, and it's easier to conquer

34
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 4: on the field because you're in more control there. But

35
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 4: this is this is you just submitted a job application.

36
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 4: You're just sitting in the waiting room after meeting with

37
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 4: the bosses seeing if they like you enough. It's it's

38
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 4: a bizarre situation and be in and for those guys

39
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 4: who have expectations walking into it and having those expectations

40
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 4: not met and and maybe maybe getting drafted after the

41
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 4: round they were expecting to get drafted.

42
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: That that's tough man.

43
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: So yeah, Will Levis, like you said, probably a good

44
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 4: situation for him. Not not a terrible team to be

45
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 4: drafted by, not a bad culture to be drafted too.

46
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 4: With the Tennessee Titans, we'll see where they are. Kind

47
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 4: of felt like they're they they halfway hit the reset

48
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 4: button last year with some of the things that they

49
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 4: that went down, the trade of aj Brown, obviously, Derrick Henry,

50
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 4: the situation there. Uh well, we'll see what the Titans

51
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 4: look like next year.

52
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: No, absolutely, and uh like uh and and if you

53
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: look at all the quarterbacks that were drafted, it's interesting

54
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: because it was embarrassing at the time the slide, you know,

55
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 3: for Will Levis. And like you said, although he was

56
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 3: surrounded by beautiful women, I'm not sure which one was

57
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 3: his girlfriend, and maybe the like the blonde girl was

58
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 3: his sister.

59
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: I don't know.

60
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 2: I'm not sure.

61
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on there in the world

62
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 3: of Will Levis.

63
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: But he wasn't rounded by beautiful women.

64
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 3: And yeah, there were times where I don't know, if

65
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 3: you know, his back got tight and that was it.

66
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: But they showed that one shot of him kind of

67
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 3: like wincing, and you keep seeing that on a loop

68
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 3: where it's as if he's just in pain because of

69
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 3: the fall.

70
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 2: It might not have been that.

71
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 3: It might have been like, you know, his left shoulder

72
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 3: crinkled up on him for a second. I don't know,

73
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 3: but the point is he fell drastically, but he might

74
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 3: have ended up in a better spot when it's all

75
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 3: said and done, compared to look at CJ. Stroud, CJ

76
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 3: Co's number two overall rich and what do they do

77
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 3: the next pick? They trade a boatload of draft capital

78
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 3: to get Will Anderson Junior from Alabama might be a

79
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 3: good pro, but I know he doesn't play tight end.

80
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 3: I know he's not a wide receiver. He's not going

81
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 3: both ways in the NFL. And look at what c J.

82
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 3: Stroud just left at Ohio State in terms of supporting

83
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: cast and the talent around him. He left literally at

84
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 3: minimum four first round wide receivers. His tackle went sixth overall.

85
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 3: You know, like he's used to so much talent around him,

86
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: and he's got Noah Brown and Nico Collins as wide

87
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 3: receiver weapons quote unquote, Right now, he's gonna look at

88
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 3: those guys and be like, are these my scout team guys?

89
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: All?

90
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 3: These are my actual guys. You've got us around c J.

91
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 3: Stroud with a lot more talent than that. You go

92
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 3: from what he had in college at Ohio State to

93
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: what he doesn't have in the NFL that is night

94
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 3: and day. So you got us around him with talent.

95
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: And although Will Anderson Junior might be a great defensive player,

96
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 3: we'll see he's certainly not an offensive player.

97
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well we'll find out what the tenant where

98
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 4: I should say, what the Texans look like with strouded quarterback,

99
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 4: because Stroud's not known to be like a Lamar Jackson type, right,

100
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 4: you know where it's instant offense, just pour water and

101
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 4: watch it grow.

102
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: It's it's it's not gonna be that.

103
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 4: You know, there's there's a little bit more that he's

104
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 4: gonna need around him in order to make that thing

105
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 4: go kaboom.

106
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: So I agree with you.

107
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 4: I think I think when you're a quarterback that's going

108
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 4: to rely on your your pocket passing, you know, your

109
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: prowess from the I should say, from the cumulative strength

110
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 4: of your offense, like a Will Levis. You know, you're

111
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 4: gonna want to go to a place where there's a

112
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 4: little bit more of a culture. And look, yeah, Tennessee

113
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 4: relies heavily on their run game, and they've been able

114
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 4: to make hey doing.

115
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 2: That for a long time. But that's actually a good thing.

116
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: For a young.

117
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 4: Quarterback because it takes a little bit of the pressure

118
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 4: off and they've got some emerging I shouldn't say stars,

119
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 4: but solid help around the offense. Traylon Burks from a

120
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 4: year ago. We'll see what that looks like. It's it's interesting,

121
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 4: and I want to say that a it's a better

122
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 4: situation than getting taken than getting taken at the top

123
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 4: of the first round, But I'm hard pressed because getting

124
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 4: taken at the top of the first round guarantees you

125
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 4: certain things you were going to get, every single grace

126
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 4: that a football player possibly can be given. Because all

127
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 4: of these talent evaluators, especially the ones who select you

128
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 4: know how important it is to get the first round right,

129
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 4: especially the top ten of the first round right. Because

130
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 4: as a general manager, you know what are you evaluated for.

131
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 4: You're evaluated for who are your first rounders and who

132
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: are your big money free agent signings, And if you

133
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,679
Speaker 4: don't hit on those, you're not a very good general manager.

134
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: You know.

135
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 4: It's kind of like wins and losses, those records being

136
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: tied to head coaches, like, I'm sorry, you could be

137
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,040
Speaker 4: the best head coach in the league, but if you're

138
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 4: not winning football games and you're players love you. That

139
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 4: doesn't amount to a hill of beans, Like you've got

140
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 4: to win football games. You've got to get it right

141
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 4: if you're a general manager when it comes to draft picks,

142
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 4: especially first rounders, and so.

143
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 2: Getting drafted at the top of.

144
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 4: The second round for Will Levis is very different than

145
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 4: getting drafted at the top of the first round.

146
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: Would you guys make of his decisions and not stay

147
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: for the second day.

148
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 4: I was just talking about this. It's embarrassing, you know.

149
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 4: It's that feeling of like you are humiliated when and I, okay,

150
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 4: I'll give you an example.

151
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: And I think he's.

152
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 4: Actually talked about this publicly, so I don't mind talking

153
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 4: about it.

154
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: And he's had a long career. But Brian Hoyer, who is.

155
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 4: Still bouncing around the NFL, he's been a backup quarterback

156
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 4: for you know, he started a couple of years, but

157
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 4: he's been a backup quarterback for the majority of his career.

158
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: Came out of Michigan State and he had camera come

159
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 4: to his house because he figured he'd be a solid

160
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 4: second round pick, and they were at his house. I

161
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 4: believe at that point the draft was only two days.

162
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 4: I believe they were there the entire second day and

163
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 4: he fell the or no, the both days. They were

164
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 4: there day one and day two, because it used to

165
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 4: be the draft was run through two was day one,

166
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 4: and then the rest of the rounds on day two,

167
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 4: and so that's what it was. They were at his

168
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 4: house for two days, production trucks in front of the house,

169
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 4: the whole thing, and he was humiliated by it. So

170
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: I think that's the reason why he left, because if

171
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 4: he fell further, it would have gotten real bad for him.

172
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 5: I don't think he was gonna fut like if I

173
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 5: was will. And again, I guess the moral of the

174
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 5: story is you don't put may on your coffee, don't

175
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 5: at your banana peels hole, because that's obviously the reason

176
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 5: why you fell, Right, guys, I would have stuck it out.

177
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 5: I think I think you give off the wrong message

178
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 5: to the team that's drafting you. And I give Brian

179
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 5: Branch a lot of credit, the defensive back out of Alabama,

180
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 5: who a lot of people thought, including me, was going

181
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 5: to be a first round pick.

182
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 1: He was at the.

183
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 5: Event in Kansas City, didn't get drafted in the first round,

184
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 5: showed up yesterday, got drafted pretty early in the second

185
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 5: round and they asked him on stage, you know, why

186
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 5: do you stay? He's like, well, this is I mean,

187
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 5: this is my this is my moment. You know, this

188
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 5: is my one moment. You only get drafted once, right,

189
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 5: That's what Kevin Costner said in draft Day. Very much fitting,

190
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 5: and it does kind of. I don't want to say

191
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 5: that's why he fell because they found something that they

192
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 5: didn't like and it was this and that. I just

193
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 5: think of the quarterbacks, he was the fourth best, and

194
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 5: the way that the draft fell, like it just this

195
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 5: is the way that it worked out.

196
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: These things happened.

197
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 5: But I think it's not a great first impression in

198
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 5: my opinion. Like I think, if you want to overcome

199
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 5: the adversity of being a quarterback in the NFL, I

200
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 5: think you could stick around in Kansas City VIP suite

201
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 5: for another twenty four hours. Like I like, it wasn't

202
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 5: like he was gonna slide that far down. Everybody was

203
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 5: trading up, and I'm sure his agent knew that everybody

204
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 5: was trading up or trying to trade up back into

205
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 5: the end of the first round to get him multiple teams.

206
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 5: That's all we heard overnight was Titans, Raiders, all these

207
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 5: other teams wanted to get back in the first round

208
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 5: to try to get that extra year of control and will,

209
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 5: so he had to know that it was not going

210
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 5: to be a very long wait in the second round.

211
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 2: Let me hit you with this one, though. Yeah, how

212
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: about this.

213
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 4: I only bought one wedding suit because I wasn't expecting

214
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 4: to get married the next day too.

215
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, well you didn't have an extra suit.

216
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: You didn't get an extra suit.

217
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean food for thought.

218
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest, though, you call your

219
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 5: tailor that night, you say, hey, Bud, I need another

220
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 5: I need this suit in a different color.

221
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: You got this in the mint metallic green.

222
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: No I like that, but I would.

223
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: I'd love to know what all went into that where

224
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 3: if the agent like, let's just say for the sake

225
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 3: of argument, the agent is like, you know what, let's

226
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 3: let's get out of here after day one must But

227
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 3: but it's like, but you let him sit there and

228
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 3: rot for the whole first round on camera, and now

229
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 3: you want to fall Like.

230
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 5: That's the that's the network's fault, right, Like they showed

231
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 5: him a million times. I would have stayed. I don't know,

232
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 5: maybe I'm just looking at it from a different view,

233
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 5: and I'm not an NFL quarterback.

234
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: I would have stayed, hey, man, I hear you.

235
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: But the thing I always go back to, I would

236
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 3: bring in Joe Thomas just randomly popped into my head,

237
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 3: the old tackle out of Wisconsin, who I think was

238
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: the number three overall pick, and he was fishing with

239
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 3: his dad like when he got drafted. You know, I

240
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 3: think that is just your day.

241
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fair.

242
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've worked so hard. If you don't have been.

243
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 3: There for the camera, like, I get it, and it's uh,

244
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: I give you some grace on that one. But I

245
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 3: hear what you say, and Jared, I can get that

246
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 3: you didn't love the decision. But I always revert back to, hey,

247
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 3: if you want to be there on stage in your

248
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 3: first round, bit, great. You want to be at home, great,

249
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 3: you don't even want to have a camera on you.

250
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: Great.

251
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 3: I just think you've earned whatever you want to do

252
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: that day.

253
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 1: Yeah.

254
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 4: And you know what, It's so funny because I know

255
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 4: that Will Levis has an agent, and that agency most

256
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 4: likely has a marketing and pr arm and I'm sure

257
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 4: some of those people spoke with him before the draft.

258
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 4: Explained to him exactly how this was all going to

259
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: work out, and then it didn't go the way anybody planned.

260
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 4: And they saw him on camera constantly and saw some

261
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 4: of his reactions and saw some of what the analysts

262
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 4: were saying about him, and you know, maybe they thought

263
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 4: collectively like, hey, geez, you know, what if, honestly, what

264
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 4: if he does slide down the board in the second

265
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 4: round too?

266
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 2: Do we really want him out there?

267
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 4: You know, And there's a little bit of group think there, like, yeah,

268
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 4: let's pull him, Let's let's get him out of the city.

269
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 4: You know, let's say a lot of nice things to

270
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 4: Will when he gets taken, you know, will gas him

271
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 4: up and he'll go to whatever team he's going to

272
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 4: with a full head of steam, as opposed to having

273
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 4: him sitting there, you know, getting stale in the suit.

274
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 4: I I kind of I kind of liked to imagine

275
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 4: a team of people making that decision. And I know

276
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 4: we'll talk about Lamar Jackson today here and the new deal,

277
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 4: but when it's a team making that decision, it feels

278
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 4: better than it's when you know it's it's Lamar and

279
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 4: his mom and maybe a family friend making that decision.

280
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 4: You know, like when it's a bunch of people have

281
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 4: been around these cameras before and know the whole rigamarole

282
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 4: of the draft day and the presentation and all that stuff.

283
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 4: Like that's what I picture happened with will Is. They

284
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 4: said to him, and all of these wonderful women who

285
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 4: are surrounding him the entire time.

286
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 5: Hey, maybe it was maybe it was that I just

287
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 5: thought about the same thing, right, it was.

288
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: Maybe it was she didn't have a second dress and

289
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 1: not he didn't have second.

290

292

Speaker 1: Looked at He's like, I want to go home.

00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,119

330
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: So it's got to be the biggest surprise at the

331
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 3: NFL Draft so far, and I don't see this being trumped.

332
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 2: Is Will Levis's fall?

333
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 3: You know that he was thought to be maybe at

334
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 3: one time the second overall pick, and he fell to

335
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 3: the second pick of the second round. It's a huge fall.

336
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 3: But that wasn't the only surprise. I'm curious what you

337
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 3: guys thought was a huge surprise or the next biggest

338
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 3: surprise in the draft where the Jamiir Gibbs pick from

339
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 3: the Lions to trade up to number twelve overall. That

340
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 3: was a shocker because it was really the opposite of

341
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: Will Levs. Heading into the draft, a lot of people

342
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: thought Will Levis would be one of the top picks,

343
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 3: and there were a lot of people that thought Jamiir

344
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 3: Gibbs might fall out of the first round entirely, and

345
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 3: yet he went twelfth overall.

346
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 2: That was a stunner. Yeah, it was a stunner. Indeed.

347
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 4: Look, I don't exactly know why these teams feel so

348
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 4: differently about running backs. Unless look, unless I'm missing something,

349
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 4: because they have again a full staff of people evaluating

350
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 4: these talents. They have people who had boots on the

351
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 4: ground at many of these games for the Longhorns and

352
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 4: for the Crimson Tide, and so it's very possible that

353
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 4: my evaluation I'm missing something major, like these two guys

354
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 4: are gonna end up in Canton one day. But I

355
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 4: look at Robinson and Gibbs as being drafted over their

356
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 4: positional value, you know, I mean, as good as Bijon

357
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 4: Robinson is, you can find you can find a running

358
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 4: back later in the draft who could potentially be just

359
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 4: as effective in the NFL. Now, maybe I'll eat those

360
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 4: words in a year. Maybe he'll be I don't know,

361
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 4: the next Walter Payton, and he'll play for a long time.

362
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 4: It'll be one of the greatest we've ever seen do it.

363
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 4: But the reality of the NFL is this is a

364
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,719
Speaker 4: passing league. Now, you know, there's very few teams. I mean,

365
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 4: we could name one, really one team that has hung

366
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 4: their hat on their run game over the past maybe

367
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 4: two Ravens Titans over the past five years. You could

368
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 4: say those two teams really hung their hat on their

369
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 4: run game. Outside of that, the other thirty teams really

370
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 4: rely more on their passing game, and so it's so

371
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 4: bizarre to spend such a high pick on a position

372
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 4: that's not as valuable in the NFL anymore.

373
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 5: Not only that, last year they spent the fifth round

374
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 5: pick on Tyler Algier, who was a stud.

375
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 3: Yeah right, that's right, and he was really good. Yeah,

376
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 3: good rookie season, fantastic.

377
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 5: The Falcons had one of the best running games in

378
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 5: the league last year.

379
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 1: But here's what they didn't do well.

380
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 5: Rush the passer, block for the passer, get after the passer,

381
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 5: defend the passer. I think it's just like all of

382
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 5: the other things that are so important. And I made

383
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 5: a joke with one of my friends who had a

384
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 5: really successful mock draft, and his one of his key

385
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 5: picks was having the Falcons draft Beijon And when I

386
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 5: asked them about it, he said, yeah, just like the

387
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 5: fit makes sense. And I look at what the Falcons

388
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 5: have done in the last three years. Last year in

389
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 5: the top ten, they draft Drake London. Two years ago

390
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 5: in the top five, they draft Kyle Pitts, and now

391
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 5: this year in the top ten, they draft Bjon Robinson.

392
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 5: It's like a kid, a fifteen year old kid who's

393
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 5: playing Madden is running their team in the draft the

394
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 5: last three years, Like, let's just take all the best

395
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 5: offensive players in the top ten and forget about every

396
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 5: other important position that is required to win in the NFL.

397
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 1: Defensive end, cornerback, offensive line, etc. Etc. Like it it is.

398
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: I think the Atlanta pick.

399
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 5: At eight was very very was very surprising to me,

400
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 5: especially because you had a couple of really good offensive

401
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 5: linemen fall into that spot. You had the Christian Gonzales

402
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 5: corner kid, who I thought was the Patriots were trying

403
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 5: to trade up for him at one point. Of course

404
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 5: they trade back and they end up getting him anyways,

405
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 5: because that's just the Patriot way. Like, there was a

406
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 5: lot of really good players in that eight, nine, ten

407
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 5: to eleven spot. I know, the offensive lineman Skarotsky at

408
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 5: a Northwestern had an interesting run and Broder Jones ended

409
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 5: up getting taken later by Pittsburgh.

410
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,399
Speaker 1: They'd end up jumping the Jets.

411
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 5: So there were some really good foundational pieces for the

412
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 5: Falcons available at eight corner o line and they end

413
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 5: up going running back. And again, I'm not running the

414
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 5: show there. I would imagine if Thomas Dimitrov was still

415
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 5: maybe this will be a very different pick. But that

416
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 5: was a very intriguing selection at eight, considering who you

417
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 5: had on your roster and what you really struggled to

418
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 5: do last year.

419
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, it's always a balancing act between what

420
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 3: you perceive to be best available and what's your biggest need.

421
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: And there are sometimes opportunities that present themselves that you say,

422
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 3: how can we on this guy? But I would think

423
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,479
Speaker 3: some of those teams when it said and done, they're like, oh, shoot,

424
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 3: we kind of didn't address this huge area of need

425
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: over here. Where I just think of the Dolphins. We'll

426
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 3: throw my Dolphins in the mix where they get Devon

427
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: Ah Chain, a running back out of Texas A and M.

428
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 2: Who is electric. I love this guy.

429
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 3: But if you look at the Dolphins similar to what

430
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 3: you're talking about, Jared, the offensive line eh needs some upgrading,

431
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 3: need some work, and yet you go with the running back.

432
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 2: And that's great.

433
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 3: But in terms of protecting to you know, keeping to

434
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 3: a upright, making sure too isn't concussed again and thinking

435
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 3: about retirement at twenty five, yeah, really important. So you

436
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 3: could say something similar about the Dolphins, but it's always

437
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 3: interesting the decisions that these teams make. Another stunner was

438
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 3: that Jalen Carter, who might have been the best player

439
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 3: of the entire draft, was still.

440
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 2: There at ninth overall and then Eagles get him.

441
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 7: That was crazy.

442
00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, Yeah, but that makes sense, right, you know,

443
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 4: like where they're selecting, and then you look at their team,

444
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 4: like the composite of that offense.

445
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 2: Not much has changed. Like the Eagles feel like.

446
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 4: A team that could repeat some success and they have

447
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 4: a little latitude to just go and take the best

448
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 4: possible player at the position they're drafting. So at ninth overall,

449
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 4: even though you have you know, pretty stout defensive line

450
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 4: with Davis and Graham and Cox, Yeah, go ahead and

451
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 4: add you at Carter and have yourself just a rotation

452
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 4: of monsters in the middle of that defense. I love

453
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 4: it when you go back to the Robinson or the

454
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 4: Gibbs pick that high in the first round, taking running

455
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 4: backs in the top twelve.

456
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,120
Speaker 2: It just it's a head scratcher.

457
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 4: Because of the teams they went to, Like you were

458
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 4: pointing out with the defense in Atlanta, but also the

459
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 4: defense in Detroit. Like the one thing we said about

460
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 4: Detroit the entire season was Oh, yeah, these guys can't

461
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 4: stop anybody. Like the offense is really good, but like

462
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 4: they just can't. I mean, you know, they're getting thirty

463
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: hung on them routinely, thirty five. And they're in shootouts

464
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter every week if they're if they're

465
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 4: even in the fourth quarter, you know.

466
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's it's interesting.

467
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 4: But that Carter selection, I mean, if he ends up

468
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 4: being at the NFL what he was at Georgia, and

469
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 4: I know a lot has happened between the point that

470
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 4: his season ended and the point of him stepping onto

471
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 4: that stage. If he can continue that success, that dude

472
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 4: is a freight train in cleats. He yeah. I mean

473
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 4: he doesn't have low lights. They're all highlights. He's incredible.

474
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought Seattle had a good draft too.

475
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 5: I really like the Witherspoon kid out of out of Illinois.

476
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 5: You know, corners become a position. You saw Sauce Gardner

477
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 5: last year when the defensive rookie of the year. That

478
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 5: is an impact position right away, and obviously defending the

479
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 5: pass is like the paramount thing to do in the

480
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 5: NFL football period. Clint Hurt last year had a ton

481
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 5: of rookies on that defense. Woollen an absolute rock star,

482
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 5: and then you've got Kobe Bryant, the other rookie corner

483
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 5: they had last year out of Cincinnati.

484
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: Both those guys played really well. You had Witherspoon to

485
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: that mix.

486
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 5: Dare I say with Kandre Diggs kind of like the

487
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,199
Speaker 5: you know, the veterans safety get a little legion of

488
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 5: boom light now back in Seattle. And then at twenty,

489
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 5: so that was the pick that they got in the

490
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 5: Russell Wilson deal at five for Witherspoon, and then at

491
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 5: twenty where they really were taking.

492
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 1: They took Jackson Smith.

493
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 5: And Jigba, who I think is the best receiver in

494
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 5: the draft who slid down to twenty. You pair him

495
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 5: with Metcalf and that is a very formidable wide receiver group.

496
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 5: And then of course, you know in the second round

497
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 5: they take another running back to pair with Kenneth Walker.

498
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 5: So if they could figure out again that offensive lines

499
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 5: had issues too, there's some holes there. But they do

500
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 5: have Charles Cross and they do have Abraham Lucas, two

501
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 5: rookies that they drafted last year. They're building a very

502
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 5: and they were one of the I think the Seahawks.

503
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 5: I didn't check the final numbers, but right around mid

504
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 5: season they had the most snaps from any rookie class

505
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 5: last year. So now you add I think three guys

506
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 5: that are gonna start right away, two on offense at

507
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,959
Speaker 5: skill position, and then of course Witherspoon the corner who

508
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 5: I think is gonna step in and be just a

509
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 5: tone setter. I thought Seattle in that division, with San

510
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 5: Francisco's quarterback situation a flux, the Rams they could, they're

511
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 5: gonna be the favorites I think to win that division

512
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,920
Speaker 5: again next year. And that's gonna be an interesting, interesting

513
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 5: situation in the NFC West.

514
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 3: I think, man, that's something we got coming up here

515
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: is the trend in the NFL A lot of teams

516
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 3: strengthening a strength. I think that's very interesting. Also, you

517
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 3: talk about strengthening strengths over here. That's basically the plaque

518
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,719
Speaker 3: in front of Isaac Lowenkron that just says what he

519
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 3: does on not only a you know, an hourly basis,

520
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 3: a daily basis on and off the air. I low

521
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 3: with the latest, what's going on right f I'm.

Speaker 8: Good morning to you, And with that in mind, I'm

523
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 8: actually gonna have a little change of pace here, because

524
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 8: I'm gonna take this first item off. Instead of telling

Speaker 3: I appreciate that Fox Sports Saturday rolling forward here on

567
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio. And yeah, guys, that was one of

568
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 3: the trends of the draft you've seen. This wasn't just

569
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 3: an outlier in twenty twenty three, but some teams they

570
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 3: elect to strengthen a strength. Where you just were talking

571
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 3: about the Seahawks, Jared, and you look at their wide

572
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 3: receiving corps. When you put Jackson Smith and Jigba as

573
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 3: the first receiver off the board at twentieth overall, when

574
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 3: you pair him with DK Metcalfe, Tyler Lockett, that's strengthening

575
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 3: a strength. If you look at the Chargers, right, they

576
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 3: went with Quinton Johnston, our guy out of TCU, who

577
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 3: we spent most of the college football season talking about.

578
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 3: When you look at the weapons that Justin Herbert has

579
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 3: to throw to, they weren't just absolutely aching for talent.

580
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 3: It wasn't like the Houston Texans over there, and yet

581
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 3: they go wide receiver first round and it just goes

582
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 3: on and on. Like the Eagles with their D line.

583
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 3: They took Jordan Davis in the first round last year.

584
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: They go back and get his former teammate Jalen Carter

585
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 3: this year. Where you could go with the Raiders as well.

586
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 3: The Raiders go Tyree Wilson. He's gonna be opposite Max Crosby.

587
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 3: I just find that to be really really interesting, where

588
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 3: some teams they don't say, hey, we're good in the secondary.

589
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 3: The Dolphins went corner with their first pick. They just

590
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: traded for Jalen Ramsey. They've got Xavian Howard. You know,

591
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 3: I just think it's interesting that there are teams they know, oh,

592
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 3: they're strong in an area, but they're like, let's be

593
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 3: over the top strong in this area, and we know

594
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 3: there's turnover going forward. But I think it's interesting when

595
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 3: teams elect to just strengthen a previous strength. Sometimes there's

596
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 3: a great strategy in doing exactly that.

597
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, it's interesting.

598
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 4: If you were if you were asking me flat out,

599
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 4: like if I thought the Bills were gonna go tight

600
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 4: end in the first round, I probably would have said, no,

601
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 4: I don't really see how that makes sense. But when

602
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 4: you start looking at the whole of the draft board

603
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 4: and thinking about all right, who's the best available player here,

604
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 4: and if if they wanted to. Again, when you're a

605
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 4: talented football team, you can kind of use the draft

606
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 4: to just take the best player you deem available at

607
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 4: that time off the board, and maybe they had a

608
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 4: huge grade on Dalton Kincaid out of Utah and said, well,

609
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 4: you know what, here's your time, buddy, because you're the

610
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 4: highest card left on our board and you don't need

611
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 4: a quarterback, you know. So it's it's just one of

612
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 4: those situations where, you know, to the victors go the spoils.

613
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 4: You know, we say it in we say it in

614
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 4: college football all the time, the rich get richer. Well,

615
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 4: there's a certain level to that in the NFL. Obviously,

616
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 4: you know, with the salary cap, there's a little bit

617
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 4: more equity in the NFL than even other professional sports leagues,

618
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 4: and that's why it's so competitive. But the NFL Draft,

619
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 4: when you're a playoff team that has you know a

620
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 4: lot of the edges kind of nice and nicely sewn

621
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 4: up and you're all hemmed in there, you can just

622
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,239
Speaker 4: sort of add strength on strength, and the Eagles did it,

623
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 4: the Seahawks did it, the Bills did it. There's gonna

624
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 4: be a lot of teams over the next five years.

625
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 4: Who you know. The Kansas City Chiefs kind of did it,

626
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 4: although they need some help on defense. There are gonna

627
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 4: be a lot of teams that are going to be

628
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 4: have the luxury of doing this over the next couple

629
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 4: of years. It doesn't guarantee them anything, but it is

630
00:31:59,120 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 4: a luxury.

631
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 5: They did it the following day, the Chiefs did. They

632
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 5: took Rashi Rice yesterday. Yeah, there you go, kid at SMU.

633
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 5: It's just a few lightning bolt That's my favorite part

634
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 5: of the draft.

635
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:10,479
Speaker 1: Guys.

636
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 5: Honestly, getting you know, winning bets is my second favorite

637
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 5: part of the draft.

638
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: Didn't do great at that this year. It was a

639
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 1: tough draft. I think this year from a gambling perspective, But.

640
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 5: I love seeing like we don't get an actual glimpse

641
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 5: behind the curtain very often in the NFL. It does

642
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 5: not happen. We're not in the meeting rooms, we're not

643
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 5: in the film rooms. We don't get to hear what

644
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 5: the coaches are saying. We don't get to see the reactions.

645
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 5: We don't get to see that behind the scenes stuff.

646
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 5: Very often. We get to see it on draft night.

647
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 5: There is a There is a camera in every single

648
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 5: war room. We don't get to hear what they're saying,

649
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 5: but we could see the process play out as much

650
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 5: as we get to see the sausage being made, about

651
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 5: as much as we do in any specific because I

652
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 5: wish that I could be at practice, every practice, every

653
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 5: week to hear the things that are being said and

654
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 5: those little moments that shape of franchise and their attitude,

655
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 5: their core beliefs, their culture. On Draft night, they have

656
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 5: to show us their cards, they have to tell us

657
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 5: who is the guy that they want to take the

658
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 5: direction of the franchise. We get to actually see the

659
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 5: ship being steered, and that's why Draft night's so fascinating,

660
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 5: and every franchise has a different way of doing it.

661
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 5: The Lions are the perfect example. They drafted two positions

662
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 5: in the top eighteen that most people, average analytical minds

663
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 5: in the NFL would say, those aren't positions that you should.

664
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: Be valuing linebacker and running back.

665
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 5: They're not positions that have a ton of overall top

666
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 5: end first round value. You should go corner, you should

667
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 5: go quarterback, offensive line, right, defensive edge. Russia ed they

668
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 5: went in another direction because those are the positions that

669
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 5: they value, old school head coach, tight end guy, biting kneecaps,

670
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 5: let's go linebacker and running back right like it. It

671
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,719
Speaker 5: shows the direction that teams want to go in, and

672
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 5: I love that because we don't get.

673
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: Those glimpses very often, so I try to soak up

674
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: all those little moments.

675
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 5: For example, when they gave us a glimpse into the

676
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 5: Dallas Cowboys war room, it looked like the desk star

677
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 5: when they were meeting with Dark Vader and Admiral Tarkan

678
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 5: and they're all kind of sitting there huddled around that weird,

679
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 5: you know star underneath. Like again, it shows the direction

680
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 5: that certain teams want to go. It gives us a

681
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 5: glimpse in of their culture. It gives us a glimpse

682
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 5: into their overall vibe, and I soak up every minute

683
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 5: of it.

684
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,320
Speaker 3: That was one of my favorite parts of the draft

685
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 3: in the first round was they're looking at the there's

686
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 3: like a live look into the war room for the

687
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys and on ESPN they're just like man. When

688
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 3: we're evaluating Michael Mayer, the tight end at a Notre Dame,

689
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 3: it's striking how similar he looks to Jason Witten, who

690
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 3: was an all time great tight end for the Cowboys,

691
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 3: and they're just like, it almost makes too much sense

692
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 3: to go with Michael Mayer. And I agreed with them, folly,

693
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 3: but they're just setting this up, setting the stage and

694
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: the Cowboys are shaking hands. They're like, ah, yeah, he

695
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 3: probably took Mayor right, and they go, Nah, we go

696
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 3: d Lineman out of Michigan.

697
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 2: Let's go with that guy.

698
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: Smiths could be a good player too. I like him

699
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: a lot.

700
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 3: He very well could be. It's just funny how that

701
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 3: that all transpired. There, we've got Rich Hornberger, Penn State,

702
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 3: All American's with us. I'm assuming he's in a tight

703
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 3: black T shirt this morning. I'd be disappointed if he's

704
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 3: not there. You go there, that's right. Jared Smith is

705
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 3: with us as well. FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian no

706
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 3: Coming up next, It's one of the worst predictions of

707
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,359
Speaker 3: all time. It's Fox Sports Saturday right here on Fox

708
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 3: Sports Radio.

709
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 2: Welcome back in.

710
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 3: It's Fox Sports Saturday Live from the Tyraq dot Com studios.

711
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what fellas. It's one of the worst

712
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 3: predictions of all time. It would be John Morant the

713
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 3: Star Memphis Grizzlies point guard, where he said earlier in

714
00:35:55,440 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 3: the regular season, I'm fine in the West. I have

715
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 3: to worry about these Boston Celtics. But I'm fighting the West.

716
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 3: And they get bounced in the first round of the

717
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 3: playoffs by the Lakers, and they lose the closeout game

718
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 3: last night, Game six by forty points. I want to

719
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 3: hear all the excuses.

720
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:17,479
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear well.

721
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, Jahn Morant's hand injury and a

722
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 3: couple of the bigs are missing. Let's not Let's not

723
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 3: make Brandon Clark and Steven Adams out to be I

724
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 3: don't know, like Tim Duncan.

725
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 2: And David Robinson, you know what I mean.

726
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 3: I know it hurt them, but they just won Game

727
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 3: five by seventeen. John Morant had forty five points in

728
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 3: one game. He had thirty one points in the previous

729
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 3: game in Game five, and they were an absolute no

730
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 3: show in a closeout game. When they talked all that

731
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 3: smack about I'm fighting the West, that that's a very

732
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 3: chatty team that did absolutely nothing when it actually mattered.

733
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 2: They talk a good they talked to talk.

734
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,840
Speaker 3: I haven't seen them do anything in terms of walking

735
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: it though.

736
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love by the way that that that adjective.

737
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 4: Chatty, so chatty chatty, a chatty bunch they are.

738
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 2: Yeah.

739
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 4: Look, you know what's what's actually interesting about this postseason

740
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 4: overall is the upsets.

741
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 3: You know.

742
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 4: I mean, now, the Lakers, I think they're better than

743
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 4: a seven seed win healthy, but still taking down a

744
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 4: two seed, the Heat taking down a one seed. You know,

745
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 4: I guess you could say the Knicks taking down Cleveland

746
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 4: is an upset. But but it's but it's it's better

747
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 4: than it's been in a long time. This postseason has

748
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 4: been way better than it's been in a very long time.

749
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 4: In the NBA, I've been I've been interested, I've been activated. Look,

750
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 4: we're sports talk radio show hosts, so we're gonna watch

751
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 4: these games regardless. But I know when I feel differently

752
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 4: about something i'm watching. The NBA regular season hit a

753
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 4: very familiar.

754
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 2: Chord with me.

755
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,479
Speaker 4: It really did not feel like it mattered, even more

756
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 4: so now because there was even less intrigue about well

757
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 4: how this all plays out with the play in Now

758
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 4: that's becoming rote, Now that's becoming you know, I'm just

759
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 4: sort of a passenger in this new NBA. I'm like,

760
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 4: I get it. Yeah, ten teams in basically right, ten teams.

761
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 4: That's crazy. You know, you got two thirds of the

762
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 4: league in the postseason, but then when you whittle it

763
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 4: down to eight and you actually see some of these upsets.

764
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 2: I mean, this is fun. This has been fun so far.

765
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: This is the first time in the history of the

766
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 1: NBA postseason that a seven and an eight seed have

767
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: both advanced in the first one.

768
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, shot out Miami Heat.

769
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, never happened before in the NBA postseason. And of

770
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 5: course you have the nixt Technically it was an upset,

771
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 5: of course, but you know, odds wise it was an upset.

772
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 5: You have Golden State seating wise could be an upset.

773
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 5: But I don't think anyone market wise based on the gambling.

774
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 5: You know, people think that's an upset. That the Warriors

775
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 5: were a big favorite series to win. And we'll get

776
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 5: a Game seven there, which should be really fun. But yeah,

777
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 5: I don't really have much else to say about the upsets. Besides,

778
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 5: we are finally getting the popcorn that we deserve, Like

779
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 5: we were waiting all regular season for it, and it's

780
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 5: taken a long time to pop.

781
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: You know, you put the popcorn in the microwave. You

782
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: hit the popcorn button and you.

783
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 5: Wait, and we waited, and we waited, and now we

784
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 5: are getting the uh, the the Orville Reddenbacher experience here

785
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 5: here in the in the first routs, and man, our

786
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 5: popcorn is turning stale in terms of watching the Grizzlies

787
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 5: actually make good on all these bold proclamations.

788
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 3: Like John to say I'm fine in the West and

789
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 3: then turn around in a closeout game and shoot three

790
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 3: for sixteen from the field, right, are you serious? And

791
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 3: like Dylan Brooks, I think Dylan Brooks who made headlines

792
00:39:52,840 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 3: calling out Lebron James and calling him old earlier one

793
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 3: by forty, I guess he respects the Lakers now, but

794
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 3: man like, I think Dylan Brooks skipping out again on

795
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 3: his media obligations like the boast game interviews, and he

796
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,399
Speaker 3: ducked out before the media got in.

797
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,240
Speaker 2: There after the closeout loss.

798
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 3: It's so lame, but I think that does take a

799
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 3: lot of the venom away from Jaw with one of

800
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 3: the all time worst predictions. If not for Dylan Brooks,

801
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 3: I think Joe would be getting called out a lot

802
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 3: more right there. But very chatty team low on results.

803
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,279
Speaker 3: All right, come up the court. What did you like

804
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 3: the most and what move did you dislike the most?

805
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 3: What do you love and what do you hate? We'll

806
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 3: get to that here. Hope you having a fantastic Saturday morning.

807
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 3: We are broadcasting live from the tiraq dot com studios.

811
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:58,919
Speaker 3: tire buying should be. Okay, the move that you love

812
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 3: the most in the NFL draft thus far, and the

813
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,479
Speaker 3: move you hate the most in the draft so far.

814
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 3: You know what, I'm gonna start off with hate, gonna

815
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 3: start every now and then it was like, let's start

816
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,320
Speaker 3: off on the right foot positive, No, forget that, Let's

817
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 3: start off on a sour note over here. I think

818
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 3: that's more interesting. I'm gonna go with the Houston Texans. Well,

819
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 3: they're getting a lot of roses. For oh Man, you

820
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 3: get CJ. Stroud and then and then you go right

821
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 3: back and get Will Anderson Junior. These could be foundational

822
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 3: pieces and YadA, YadA, YadA, YadA. I just look at

823
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 3: this and say, if you get CJ. Stroud, Okay, but

824
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 3: you gotta surround him with a lot of talent. That's

825
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,919
Speaker 3: arguably the main reason he was so successful at Ohio State.

826
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 3: That would be my argument is he surrounded by who's

827
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 3: who's supporting cast and it's like having a baby and

828
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,320
Speaker 3: just not even throwing him in the crib with no binki,

829
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 3: no no blanket, no toys. No, you threw him in

830
00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 3: a cardboard box and said, ah, he'll be fine.

831
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,320
Speaker 2: That's what the Texans just did. They drafted CJ.

832
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 3: Stroud and they trade all this draft capital that they

833
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 3: got in the Deshaun Watson trade to get Will Anderson Junior,

834
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,839
Speaker 3: who might be a good pro. We'll say that sentencedtone

835
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 3: that he's going to be a stud, but he certainly

836
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 3: doesn't play offense. And the price tag. You can't just

837
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 3: gloss over the price tag. So the Cardinals, they were

838
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 3: the trade partner in this. The Arizona Cardinals got the

839
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 3: twelfth overall pick, the thirty third overall pick right at

840
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 3: the top of the second round.

841
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 2: They get a.

842
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 3: First round pick and a third round pick next year

843
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,719
Speaker 3: from the Houston Texans. Question, how many games do you

844
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 3: think the Texans are gonna win this year.

845
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean really like that.

846
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,840
Speaker 3: Could be maybe the number one overall pick. It's probably

847
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 3: a top three pick. You traded all that for Will

848
00:42:55,160 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 3: Anderson Junior doesn't play offense. I think it's wreck by

849
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 3: the Texans. I think they are stumbling drunk to do that.

850
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 4: The only thing, the only thing that I can make

851
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 4: sense of is Nick Cassario has has a long leash,

852
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, like their general manager. The

853
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 4: only reason why you make a move like this is

854
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 4: if if you really and truly wanted to have what

855
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,879
Speaker 4: you would deem your foundational player on the offense, your

856
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 4: foundational player on the defense, and you just start building

857
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,759
Speaker 4: around them, and everybody in the organization is aware that

858
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 4: this team's gonna stink out loud for another season and

859
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 4: they're going to get better for it. Like so, if

860
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 4: you're sold, if you're the McNair's, and you're sold that

861
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 4: this is going to be a multi year process, and

862
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,399
Speaker 4: you go and you take arguably two of the best

863
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,720
Speaker 4: players on offense or defense, and arguably the best player

864
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,320
Speaker 4: offensively and defensively in the whole draft, and you're done

865
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 4: before the fourth pick comes in. I can make an argument,

866
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,359
Speaker 4: but again, I agree with you. I don't think they're

867
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 4: gonna be very good next year. If we're gonna if

868
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 4: we're gonna lead with hate, Yeah, I'm gonna get I

869
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 4: bet y'all get crushed for this by by someone out

870
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 4: there listening to us right now. But I I really

871
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 4: think that Bejon Robinson going as high as he did

872
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,399
Speaker 4: is ridiculous. Yeah, I think. I mean it's just there.

873
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 4: I see no value in doing this. I see no

874
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:26,720
Speaker 4: value in doing this. I mean, even if he is incredible,

875
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 4: even when running backs in this are incredible, Derrick Henry,

876
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 4: who has been better than Derrick Henry in the league

877
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 4: in recent memory, no one.

878
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:40,360
Speaker 2: He's just been King Henry. We're give him a scepter

879
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 2: and a crown. Where's his throne? He's amazing. Give him

880
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 2: some grapes, Yeah.

881
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 3: Give him grape Give this man a goblet.

882
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 2: I want to see Jules. I mean, he's been so unbelievable.

883
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 4: The Titans, though, they haven't been able to get over

884
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 4: the hump because they don't have a great quarterback like

885
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 4: I as great as Bijon Robinson can possibly be in

886
00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,240
Speaker 4: the NFL, and I imagine he will be great because

887
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 4: he's kind of one of those can't miss prospects. He

888
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 4: shouldn't no running back. This is nothing against him. No

889
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 4: running back should be taken that high. It's unfathomable in

890
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 4: a league. I mean, there's no positional value. Go after

891
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 4: an edge rusher, go after a corner, go after a quarterback,

892
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 4: go after a left tackle, go after a wide receiver

893
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 4: before you go after a running back.

894
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 2: It makes absolutely zero sense to me. I hated the selection.

895
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, it reminds me of your fantasy football draft when

896
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,640
Speaker 5: the guy takes like a kicker in the sixth round,

897
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 5: and it's like, hey, he's on the best offense. He's

898
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,399
Speaker 5: gonna get a million points, right, Like, you can get

899
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 5: a kicker at any point in the later rounds, and

900
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:53,640
Speaker 5: he's probably gonna have similar production Kauf Tyler Algier Kauf

901
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 5: in the fifth round. Light like right, it goes back

902
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 5: to the same thing. So I agree with you there.

903
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,479
Speaker 5: I think you can put the lines in the same boat.

904
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 5: But again, it's their organizational structure is kind of going

905
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 5: in that direction. I'll give you since I guess we're

906
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 5: all being negative today, I'll give you my slightly negative

907
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 5: take on the first round here, because you guys kind

908
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,240
Speaker 5: of hit on the two key points and then I'll

909
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 5: hammer it home with a positive because we're all about

910
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 5: positivity here on the show.

911
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: Right, Oh yes, sometimes right? Yeah, I didn't I didn't love.

912
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 5: So the Chargers at twenty one had their pick of

913
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 5: the litter. We know they needed a wide receiver. Everybody

914
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 5: knew they were going to take a wide receiver, and

915
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 5: they had their pick of the litter between Quintin Johnson's

916
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 5: A Flowers and Jordan Addison, and I think they picked

917
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 5: the third worst guy out of that trio. And it's

918
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 5: no surprise that the Ravens ran to the window after

919
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 5: Quentin Johnson was taken at twenty one and took Save

920
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 5: Flowers at twenty two. Like, if you were going to

921
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 5: ask me organizational talent in terms of scouting which team,

922
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 5: and I know the Ravens have not had a good

923
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,759
Speaker 5: track record with wide receivers, I get that, But besides that,

924
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 5: they've been pretty good with scouting out players and drafting

925
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 5: guys and getting a lot of positional value. I would

926
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 5: choose the Ravens out of the Chargers in that group.

927
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 5: So I was a little I didn't love. I would

928
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 5: have I would have gone Za Flowers at twenty two.

929
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 5: But again that's micro managing all three of those receivers.

930
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 5: I'm sure each of them had an element to their

931
00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,239
Speaker 5: game that one team particularly like. Maybe the Chargers like

932
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,719
Speaker 5: the physical guy that doesn't really run routes that well,

933
00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 5: a little bit inconsistent, doesn't have great speed over the

934
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 5: Za Flowers, more polished type of receiver. Maybe they feel

935
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 5: like they got that with Odell and they needed a

936
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 5: little more of a body.

937
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: I don't know.

938
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 5: That's where the Ravens went and the Chargers I think

939
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 5: probably made a little.

940
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: Bit of mistake.

941
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 5: Can we just say, we've been doing this show for

942
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 5: an hour. Have we mentioned Bryce Young's name yet once?

943
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 3: No, And it's just because it was like, uh, it

944
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 3: just for technicality of.

945
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: The actually, but again, they made a trade and they

946
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 1: moved up.

947
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 5: And I know the trade happened so long ago that

948
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 5: by the time we got the draft night it was

949
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 5: like stale potatoes.

950
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 1: But I do give them a lot of credit.

951
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 5: I do think Carolina made a statement and I think

952
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,320
Speaker 5: they're going to be very you know, in good hands

953
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 5: with All State, right or whatever whatever that commercial is

954
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 5: with Bryce Young and Frank Reich at the Helm of

955
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 5: this franchise now for the next however many years.

956
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,760
Speaker 1: You know, I would assume Frank's.

957
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:19,279
Speaker 5: Job security is probably less than Bryce's. But it just

958
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 5: it seems like Carolina quietly added the best player in

959
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:24,760
Speaker 5: this draft.

960
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, and and and I think that that certainly can't

961
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: go on.

962
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,719
Speaker 2: Said, well, that's my positive.

963
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 4: And Brian, I can't wait to hear because I know

964
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 4: your mister positivity.

965
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:35,800
Speaker 1: You know he's waiting.

966
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just get out of bed with just Clee.

967
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 3: You know each step is cleeful. Yes, I can't wait

968
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 3: to your yours.

969
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,840
Speaker 4: But Bryce Young, I mean that is that is my positive,

970
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 4: most positive takeaway. I think Carolina did two things really

971
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 4: right this offseason, signing Frank Reich as your head coach,

972
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:59,399
Speaker 4: not being not being fooled by what the Indianapolis Colts did,

973
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 4: because if you want to if you want me to

974
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 4: be honest, the Colts are the fools. Like the Jim irsay,

975
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 4: he's a fool for firing Frank Reik. I think that

976
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 4: was a mistake. I think he's a fool for meddling

977
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:15,359
Speaker 4: with the depth chart in the middle of a season. Yeah,

978
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,800
Speaker 4: I think that they had a culture that was built

979
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,479
Speaker 4: up there. I think they had a leader in Frank Reich,

980
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 4: and I think they tore it apart, or I should say,

981
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 4: one man, Jim Irsay, tore it apart because he was

982
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 4: becoming impatient. And that's a shame and not for Carolina

983
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 4: fans though, because they're going to get to enjoy what

984
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 4: great leadership at the front of an organization looks like.

985
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 4: And he's gotten to get over all those early foibles

986
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 4: of learning the position of being a head coach in Indianapolis.

987
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 4: So Frank Reich's gonna come to Carolina with all that

988
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 4: and then he's going to bring in Bryce Young. This

989
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,400
Speaker 4: guy's a quarterback whisper, and he doesn't get enough credit

990
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 4: for it. I mean, think about the turnover ap quarterback

991
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 4: and the production that that colts offense has gotten to

992
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 4: enjoy over the the course of time with some guys

993
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 4: who have been retrofitted too. I mean, he got a

994
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 4: lot out of and Andrew luckoff of injury, a lot

995
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 4: out of an aging Philip Rivers. He got a lot

996
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 4: out of a Carson Wentz who looked like he had

997
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 4: on one foot on a banana peel, the other foot

998
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 4: out the door.

999
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:18,720
Speaker 2: It's kind of it's kind of amazing.

1000
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 4: What he's done in Indianapolis over his time as a

1001
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 4: head coach there. And you bring in Bryce Young, who's

1002
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 4: a quick processor, he gets the ball out fast. He's

1003
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 4: a pocket passer first, but he has the mobility to escape.

1004
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 4: I mean, he's a willing learner, comes out of a

1005
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:37,520
Speaker 4: great culture in Alabama. I think it was a home

1006
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,840
Speaker 4: run for the Carolina Panthers this offseason.

1007
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 3: I would go with my positive move. I would go

1008
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:48,400
Speaker 3: with the Eagles and getting Jalen Carter. And I just

1009
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 3: love the reaction from Micah Parsons, who plays for the

1010
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 3: Dallas Cowboys, vision rival of the Eagles, and he was

1011
00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,240
Speaker 3: just like, Ah, are you serious they.

1012
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:00,919
Speaker 2: Get this guy?

1013
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 3: They lost Javon Hargrave to the forty nine ers and

1014
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 3: how about Micah Parsons maybe a future GM over there

1015
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 3: where he's talking about how much money Hargrave got and

1016
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 3: then the money that you know Jalen Carter isn't going

1017
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 3: to get as a slotted number nine overall pick, Like

1018
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 3: that's a huge difference in cash, but you might have

1019
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,800
Speaker 3: gotten a player that's as good, if not better, and

1020
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 3: Jalen Carter right away. So for a player from a

1021
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 3: division rival to basically throw nothing but rose pedals in

1022
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 3: the direction of the Eagles. For that move, I would

1023
00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 3: put that at the top of the list the move

1024
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 3: I love the most. I also in terms of a story,

1025
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 3: I absolutely love Joey Porter Junior getting drafted by the

1026
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,840
Speaker 3: Steelers And there was this great picture flying around the

1027
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 3: you know, on social media where you had Joey Porter,

1028
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,800
Speaker 3: who was, you know, a linebacker, edge rusher, never forget

1029
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,879
Speaker 3: him with Clark has shout out right with that three

1030
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 3: four the edge rushers putting heat on Peyton Manning and company.

1031
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:09,319
Speaker 3: But when it was Super Bowl forty, Joey Porter won

1032
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 3: that game against the Seahawks with the Steelers and there

1033
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,360
Speaker 3: was this picture where he's holding both of his sons

1034
00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 3: after the game and Joey Porter Junior at the time,

1035
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 3: he's like five, maybe four something like that, and he

1036
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:27,280
Speaker 3: just got drafted by the same team about what seventeen

1037
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 3: years later. I thought that was just an awesome story.

1038
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 2: So cool, so cool.

1039
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 4: The NFL draft, man, it really is the best because

1040
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:41,760
Speaker 4: it is like watching in real time lottery winners getting

1041
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 4: their life made. And I mean it is a life

1042
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 4: changing moment every single time of the year. This year,

1043
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,479
Speaker 4: or I should say this time of the year, I'm

1044
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 4: automatically zoomed back to my draft day. And you know,

1045
00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 4: it is true what you brought up earlier, Jared. You

1046
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 4: only get one draft day, you know, you only get

1047
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 4: to do that once in your entire life. And uh,

1048
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 4: for the few that get to hear their name called,

1049
00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:11,759
Speaker 4: or their family get to hear their name called, it's

1050
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 4: one of the coolest experiences. And for Joey Porter to

1051
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 4: have that experience with his dad, you know, to I mean,

1052
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 4: I'm getting chills talking about I can feel the tears

1053
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 4: welling up in my eyes because what a special moment

1054
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 4: for these two, you know, I mean, the the household

1055
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 4: that he grew up in. I'm sure when he was

1056
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 4: a kid four or five years old, he had no

1057
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,040
Speaker 4: idea what dad was doing. Just it was just normal,

1058
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 4: like all dads go.

1059
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,319
Speaker 2: To work and play for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

1060
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, Like that's what all dads do, you know.

1061
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,880
Speaker 4: And and then he got to realize how special that

1062
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 4: journey was. And when he became a young man, he

1063
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 4: started on his own journey and it's brought him to

1064
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 4: the same exact place. It's it's incredible. What what a moment,

1065
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,920
Speaker 4: What a cool What a cool experience that must have been.

1066
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:05,919
Speaker 4: And as fans of the game, in a weird way,

1067
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:08,320
Speaker 4: we all get to enjoy that along with that family

1068
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 4: because we've been following the game and admiring the greatness

1069
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:16,879
Speaker 4: of that team and that player for all those years,

1070
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 4: and now we get to watch his son play for

1071
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 4: the same yellow and black.

1072
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 2: That's pretty awesome.

1073
00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 1: I thought Pittsburgh quietly had a good draft too.

1074
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought porter a lot of teams wanted to

1075
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,720
Speaker 5: trade up, and we heard that all, you know, Thursday

1076
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 5: night into Friday morning, how Pittsburgh's pick.

1077
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:34,919
Speaker 1: And this happens every year.

1078
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 5: The first pick in the second round always gets a

1079
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 5: lot of calls because you're sitting on it for you know,

1080
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:42,359
Speaker 5: almost twenty four hours. And then I thought they did

1081
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:47,840
Speaker 5: a really smooth maneuver earlier in the first round jumping

1082
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 5: the Jets. And you know, you can thank the Patriots

1083
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 5: as an assist for that. So you had the Jets

1084
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 5: is sitting there at fifteen, you had the Patriots at fourteen,

1085
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 5: and then the Steelers a couple picks back, and Pittsburgh decides, hey,

1086
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 5: we're gonna jump the Jets. We know the Jets won

1087
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 5: an offensive tackle. They go up and get the Broderick

1088
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,360
Speaker 5: Jones kid out of Georgia. Who fun story, Fun fact,

1089
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,160
Speaker 5: I played craps with here at the M Casino in

1090
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 5: Las Vegas when he was in town meeting with the

1091
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 5: Raiders the night before. All of a sudden, I see

1092
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,399
Speaker 5: this gigantic, massive human roll up to the craps table

1093
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:22,160
Speaker 5: across the street from me, which is I live right

1094
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,719
Speaker 5: by the Raiders' facility here down in southern the you know,

1095
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 5: the southern part of Las Vegas.

1096
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:28,279
Speaker 1: And he's just betting a thousand dollars on don't pass.

1097
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,359
Speaker 5: And I'm like, yes, you know, you're like, you look

1098
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 5: like you're twenty five years old, buddy, you have a

1099
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,399
Speaker 5: lot of money. So uh and and he ends up

1100
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 5: the Raiders obviously passed.

1101
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 1: They went another direction, but he ends up going.

1102
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 5: To uh Pittsburgh, and he is just I mean, you

1103
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 5: stand next to him, Rich, I stood next to you.

1104
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,320
Speaker 1: He is a large, large.

1105
00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,560
Speaker 2: Er Jones love that, Yeah, I got it.

1106
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:52,839
Speaker 3: Rich just sort of like nose size compared to this guy.

1107
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:54,320
Speaker 2: Goodness, Roderick Jones.

1108
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 1: He's massive.

1109
00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 5: And then speaking of massive, and speaking of Georgia, man,

1110
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 5: Georgia just very well represented in this draft. In the

1111
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 5: third round, they take Darnell Washington, the tight end. Who

1112
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:07,960
Speaker 5: you want to talk about some massive, massive people that

1113
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 5: Pittsburgh brought to their roster. Broderick Jones and Darnell Washington

1114
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 5: could sink a boat just the two of them sitting

1115
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:14,440
Speaker 5: in it.

1116
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:17,839
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's absolutely absurd. So you got him

1117
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 1: protecting Jones, protecting Picket. Now you had another weapon. And

1118
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:21,760
Speaker 1: then you add Porter.

1119
00:56:22,040 --> 00:56:24,840
Speaker 5: I thought the Steelers had a quietly, quietly, really really

1120
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 5: slick draft.

1121
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 3: All right, we've got a lot to dive into. We've

1123

00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 3: but not just in general. But how about this, So

1141
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson gets his contract extension Baltimore Ravens quarterback one

1142
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 3: hundred and eighty five million dollars guaranteed. It's a two

1143
00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty million dollar deal, but it's all about

1144
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 3: the guaranteed money. One eighty five guaranteed, big payday. Finally

1145
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 3: got it good for him, Will Will Levis, or as

1146
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,400
Speaker 3: I call him, Will the Thrill. He falls to the

1147
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 3: thirty third overall pick in the NFL draft. I think

1148
00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 3: there's a link, you guys tell me if I'm crazy.

1149
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 3: Here link that I see between the two is if

1150
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson, who was banged up last year. He had

1151
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,320
Speaker 3: a knee injury against the Denver Broncos we thought it

1152
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 3: was gonna be a week to three weeks. It was

1153
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 3: the rest of the season. Didn't play in the playoff

1154
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 3: game against the Bengals. That was a big topic of Hey,

1155
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 3: is he healthy enough to give it a go even

1156
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 3: though he's gonna be limited. Not the same guy, and

1157
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 3: a lot of people thought it was contractually linked. It

1158
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,720
Speaker 3: was tied to his contract. The point I'm making is this,

1159
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 3: if Lamar Jackson goes out there isn't one hundred percent

1160
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:42,520
Speaker 3: and looks like it, he doesn't have the same burst.

1161
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 3: Maybe there are a couple of errant passes, maybe the

1162
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 3: Ravens are one and done in the playoffs and he's

1163
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,960
Speaker 3: a little rusty because he missed the previous four regular

1164
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 3: season games, whatever it was, he doesn't stand as good

1165
00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 3: of a chance to get the payday he just got.

1166
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 3: And if you look at Will Levis with Kentucky last year,

1167
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 3: there are a lot of games that he played while hurt.

1168
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 3: There were some teams that were reports that they were

1169
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 3: scared off because of the toe injury. Whether you buy

1170
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 3: that or not, he was hurt and that did impact

1171
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 3: to a degree his production in his final year at Kentucky.

1172
00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 3: So if Will Lewis said, you know what, instead of

1173
00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:27,959
Speaker 3: playing this night game against Tennessee where we're clearly undermanned

1174
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 3: and I'm not one hundred percent, I'm just gonna say, nah,

1175
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 3: I can't go. And the crazy twist is his value

1176
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:39,360
Speaker 3: might have been a bit higher come draft night if

1177
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 3: you didn't have all of these. You know, you look

1178
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 3: at the stat sheet and you say, ah, man, like

1179
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 3: I love twenty twenty one, but twenty twenty two not

1180
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 3: so much.

1181
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 2: You know, he really took a step back.

1182
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,560
Speaker 3: If he says, you know what, I'm not operating at

1183
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,240
Speaker 3: one hundred percent, I think that his value is a

1184
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:55,840
Speaker 3: bit higher.

1185
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:57,520
Speaker 2: And I absolutely hate that.

1186
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 3: But the point is this, sometimes when player goes out

1187
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 3: there hurt, organizations don't take that into account.

1188
01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 1: They just go by what they see.

1189
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 3: And if Lamar goes out there isn't a hundred percent,

1190
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:13,560
Speaker 3: he might not get one eighty five guaranteed. If will

1191
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,440
Speaker 3: Levis sat on the sideline a couple of times, he

1192
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:20,240
Speaker 3: might not have dropped to thirty third. Overall, I hate

1193
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 3: that that's the reality, but I see that playing out here.

1194
01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:26,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, you're not crazy. I think there's some

1195
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:30,520
Speaker 4: of that. I also think this. I think leverage in

1196
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 4: a lot of businesses.

1197
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:34,120
Speaker 2: Is seasonal.

1198
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 4: I think your leverage in the NFL is somewhat seasonal.

1199
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:41,480
Speaker 4: And I'll explain it by saying this, Like if I

1200
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 4: had an air conditioner to sell and I waited all

1201
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 4: the way until October fifteenth to sell it, I'm selling

1202
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 4: it for a lot less than I would on June fifteenth.

1203
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 4: You know what I mean, because people just need air

1204
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 4: conditioning less in October versus the dead of the summer,

1205
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:04,400
Speaker 4: you know, or the beginning of the summer. Like you're

1206
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 4: out playing your hand if you're waiting too long. When

1207
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 4: you're sitting on a contract negotiation in the NFL, April

1208
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:18,080
Speaker 4: twenty third is around the time where you really need

1209
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 4: to start getting the contract talks piping hot again, because

1210
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,479
Speaker 4: you are four days away from the NFL realizing how

1211
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,840
Speaker 4: cheap the talent can possibly be. Like the Baltimore Ravens

1212
01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:32,439
Speaker 4: before locking the door of their warroom, Lamar Jackson, I'm

1213
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:35,560
Speaker 4: guessing had the date in mind, Like, Okay, that's about

1214
01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:38,520
Speaker 4: as far as we could push it, because my seasonal

1215
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 4: leverage is about to decrease dramatically once we get there,

1216
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,360
Speaker 4: because then the Ravens have a decision to make do

1217
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 4: we really trust that Lamar Jackson is going to be

1218
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 4: our long term solution at quarterback or do we need

1219
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,040
Speaker 4: to make a move here, And he didn't want to

1220
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 4: see what the answer to that question was when that

1221
01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:00,680
Speaker 4: warroom door locked, And so I think he always had

1222
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:03,560
Speaker 4: it in mind, like, I know exactly how long I

1223
01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:06,120
Speaker 4: could push this, but I'm going to be selling a

1224
01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 4: lot less ice pops in December than I will be

1225
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:09,440
Speaker 4: in August.

1226
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,760
Speaker 2: So it's time. It's time.

1227
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 4: And so I think this had less to do with

1228
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 4: the Ravens and their valuation of Lamar or injury and

1229
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 4: had a lot more to do with Lamar and I.

1230
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:22,640
Speaker 4: And again I think he should have had an agent

1231
01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 4: through this whole process. I think this could have been

1232
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 4: a lot less painful. I think this could have been

1233
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:30,520
Speaker 4: a lot easier on him from a public relations standpoint.

1234
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 4: But the deal got done because I think he realized

1235
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 4: that his leverage was about to decrease significantly and took

1236
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 4: the best offer he possibly could by pushing it as

1237
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:43,680
Speaker 4: far as he possibly could.

1238
01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely one hundred percent like he he didn't.

1239
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 5: He realized he wasn't going to get what he wanted,

1240
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,640
Speaker 5: so he took what he could, and I think it's

1241
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 5: a smart actually, And I've been critical, We've all been

1242
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,720
Speaker 5: critical of the of the agent thing. I agree with

1243
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 5: everyone's take here. It could have been a lot easier

1244
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 5: for him if he didn't have an agent, But this

1245
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:05,640
Speaker 5: is the way he wanted to do it. I mean,

1246
01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 5: from what I heard, multiple agents were basically saying, almost

1247
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 5: pro bono, but you know, just let me take this

1248
01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 5: case and show you what I can do for you, Lamar.

1249
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 5: I mean, if I was an agent, that's what I

1250
01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 5: would have done. I would have begged Lamar to be

1251
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 5: that guy that bridges this gap.

1252
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 1: But he wanted to go it alone. He went it alone.

1253
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 5: This was the road that he walked down, and eventually

1254
01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 5: he did make the decision because let's be honest, the

1255
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,640
Speaker 5: deal that he got that he signed that we're hearing

1256
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 5: is not a whole lot different than what he was

1257
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 5: offered months ago. Maybe just the you know, the parameter's

1258
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,160
Speaker 5: a little different. I think you had a little more money,

1259
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 5: but not a lot. He just realized, you're right, the

1260
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 5: timing is everything in life. He realized the timing of

1261
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,479
Speaker 5: this deal. It made sense for him to sign now

1262
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 5: before the draft because then the Ravens go out and

1263
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 5: what do they do.

1264
01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 1: They take Save Flowers in the first round.

1265
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:01,920
Speaker 5: I mean, you want to talk about upside for Lamar Jackson,

1266
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:04,959
Speaker 5: now Odell Beckham, what does he have left in the tank?

1267
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,920
Speaker 1: We'll see Zay Flowers. Well, I'd say he's got a

1268
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 1: lot left in the tank.

1269
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,280
Speaker 5: There's gonna be some people that are gonna come out.

1270
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:13,360
Speaker 5: And I had some friends behind the scenes that bet

1271
01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:15,240
Speaker 5: Zay Flowers to be the first receiver off the board.

1272
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 5: They thought he had a chance to be the best

1273
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 5: receiver in this draft.

1274
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 1: We saw Jackson Smith and Jig Befall. We saw the

1275
01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:23,880
Speaker 1: Chargers make it questionable.

1276
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 5: But I think organizational decision to go Quintin Johnson and

1277
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 5: then we see the Ravens do what they do at

1278
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,560
Speaker 5: twenty two and take Jay Flowers. That is the crystallization

1279
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 5: of the Lamar Jackson deal. And I'm happy for Lamar

1280
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:38,880
Speaker 5: because I hope it works out. The difference between Lamar

1281
01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 5: Jackson and Will Levis. Will Levis woke up today as

1282
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:44,240
Speaker 5: the third string quarterback on the Titans roster behind Malik Willis.

1283
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 5: Was that came out just now from Mike Brabil that

1284
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 5: it'll be Tannehill one, Willis two, Levis three. Lamar Jackson

1285
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 5: in his first season was in the postseason. He was

1286
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,160
Speaker 5: an MVP his second year. So I think there's a

1287
01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 5: bit of a different trajectory than the two pass those

1288
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 5: guys are going to take, even though they were drafted

1289
01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 5: in similar spots. But I do I'm happy for Lamar,

1290
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 5: and I think it's gonna work out at least to

1291
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 5: the best that it can based off of the timing

1292
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:11,200
Speaker 5: of when the deal took place.

1293
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 3: All right, Uh, we got a draft day steam being

1294
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 3: the wildest steam, and we've also got Isaac Lohmancron the

1295
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 3: wildest update.

1296
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 2: Anchor of anchors. Boy, is that legit? There? I Low?

1297
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:26,560
Speaker 2: What do you think about that?

1298
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 8: Oh? You've seen the pictures, haven't you. I was young

1299
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 8: and firm, oh boy, and I wear it with pride.

1300
01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 2: Hello, Why do we move out of the NBA Playoffs?

1301
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 2: Shall we? We've always said that about Isaac? Yeah?

1302
01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:51,200
Speaker 8: Right, Well, speaking of going back in time, fellas, I'm

1303
01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 8: gonna fire up the flux capacitor. Why don't you join

1304
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:58,120
Speaker 8: me on a little journey through time. Let's go back

1305
01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:00,600
Speaker 8: in time to the aftermath of Game two of the

1306
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 8: NBA playoffs and Memphis is Dylan Brooks talking about the

1307
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 8: Lakers Lebron James.

1308
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:12,600
Speaker 9: I don't care he's old. I pulled Bears. I don't

1309
01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 9: respect no one until they come and give me forty.

1310
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 8: Well, in Game six on Friday night, Lebron and the

1311
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 8: Lakers gave him forty. I mean, you couldn't make this

1312
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 8: stuff up. Kat winning by forty points one twenty five

1313
01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 8: to eighty five to take the series four games to two.

1314
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 8: D'Angelo Russell scored thirty one. The Grizzlies shot thirty percent

1315
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:44,600
Speaker 8: from the field. A PostScript on Dylan Brooks, reporter Tim

1316
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:50,160
Speaker 8: McMahon tweeting after the game quote, Dylan Brooks exited the

1317
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 8: locker room before the media was allowed to enter. Unquote.

1318
01:06:55,240 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 8: So since we're not hearing from Dylan Brooks anymore, I

1319
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:01,760
Speaker 8: thought I'd go on social media and look at his

1320
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 8: latest mentions. Lucas tweeting, quote, where are you Brooks? Lakers

1321
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 8: qualify for the next round, you go back home. Don't

1322
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:16,280
Speaker 8: speak too much. You need more practice, little puppy haha,

1323
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 8: unquote Lucas summarizing things. Also, gas Stone tweeted, and I

1324
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:32,040
Speaker 8: quote decile al Viejo Casse prepade, which means in English,

1325
01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 8: tell the old man to get ready, apparently reference to Lebron.

1326
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,560
Speaker 8: So the fans out there are on the same wave

1327
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:41,880
Speaker 8: look apparently as the rest of us.

1328
01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:42,360
Speaker 7: Anyway.

1329
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 8: Earlier on Friday night, the Sacovato Kings forced a Game

1330
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:48,240
Speaker 8: seven wedding at Golden State what eighteen to ninety nine.

1331
01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 8: Sacramento will host Game seven on Sunday. In Round two

1332
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,640
Speaker 8: of the NFL Draft, on Friday night, the Titans drafted

1333
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 8: Kentucky quarterback Will Levis thirty third overall. In the third round,

1334
01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:02,280
Speaker 8: the Detroit Lions drafted Tennessee cornback Hendon Hooker at number

1335
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:05,480
Speaker 8: sixty eight overall. While the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Dallas

1336
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,680
Speaker 8: Stars one in Minnesota four to one to take the

1337

Speaker 8: series in six. The Colorado Avalanche one at Seattle four

1347
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:42,760
Speaker 3: terms of draft day steam, the betting odds, you talk

1348
01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:46,000
Speaker 3: about wild fluctuations.

1349
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:45,479
Speaker 2: It was.

1350
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,759
Speaker 3: It was insane what happened leading up to the draft

1351
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:52,679
Speaker 3: On draft day. Will levis at the top of the list.

1352
01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:56,920
Speaker 3: The Reddit story where someone said, yeah, he's been telling

1353
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 3: people he's gonna be the number one overall pick, and

1354
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,120
Speaker 3: then better is just flocking to him being the number

1355
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:06,720
Speaker 3: one overall pick, and then he goes thirty third overall.

1356
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,400
Speaker 2: It was wild. It was absolutely wild.

1357
01:09:10,360 --> 01:09:14,800
Speaker 3: I don't think that there is, like I don't know,

1358
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 3: inappropriate steam as much as there is with Draft day.

1359
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:23,240
Speaker 3: They're leading up to Draft day. Man, it was wild.

1360
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,360
Speaker 3: Some of the steme it turned out to be correct,

1361
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:27,920
Speaker 3: like c. J. Stroud being the number two overall pick.

1362
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:31,559
Speaker 3: It wasn't all wrong. And you man, there Bryce Young

1363
01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:34,559
Speaker 3: being number one overall AFT on the heels of you know,

1364
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 3: the incorrect c J. Stroud number one overall steam. But

1365
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,519
Speaker 3: there were wild fluctuations leading up to the drafts. Man,

1366
01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,160
Speaker 3: if you were betting on it, you might have gotten

1367
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,120
Speaker 3: a winning bet, but when you got it, you know,

1368
01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:49,439
Speaker 3: like the odds of when you got it. It could

1369
01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:51,559
Speaker 3: have been night and day, crazy difference.

1370
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:57,040
Speaker 4: I feel for Levis for two reasons. One because I

1371
01:09:57,080 --> 01:10:01,120
Speaker 4: think that that roller coaster rye of the pre draft

1372
01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 4: process is kind to some and it's really unkind to others.

1373
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:08,439
Speaker 4: He probably, at best was always going to be a

1374
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:11,679
Speaker 4: late first round pick, like maybe somebody sneaks up into

1375
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:16,479
Speaker 4: the first round and steals him away. I mean, I

1376
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 4: think we all wrapped our head around what we were

1377
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,920
Speaker 4: hearing and sort of said, okay, geez. I mean, if

1378
01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 4: the betting market is moving that significantly, maybe there's something

1379
01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:28,759
Speaker 4: to this. And so it's almost like the tail wagging

1380
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 4: the dog. And I think that's what happened. And with

1381
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,920
Speaker 4: social media being what it is now and the beehive

1382
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:42,560
Speaker 4: of of Twitter and redditors and Instagram and TikTok followers

1383
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:45,719
Speaker 4: who can get behind something and make it a thing

1384
01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:49,880
Speaker 4: even though it actually isn't, I think that's what happened

1385
01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,840
Speaker 4: in this case with Will Levis. And so, you know,

1386
01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:54,840
Speaker 4: you go to Kansas City, you put on the suit,

1387
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,200
Speaker 4: you know, you have the flock of women around you,

1388
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:00,000
Speaker 4: and you're expected to be taken within the first fifteen picks,

1389
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 4: I'm sure, and it goes completely sideways for you. And

1390
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 4: and I'll also say this, I bet you there was

1391
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:11,800
Speaker 4: a certain amount of relief from these NFL executives, you know,

1392
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:16,599
Speaker 4: maybe in Houston, maybe in Seattle, maybe in uh maybe

1393
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 4: in in Carolina who had a top pick and were

1394
01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:25,920
Speaker 4: they they were they were too afraid to leak the

1395
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,560
Speaker 4: rumor that they had interest in Will Levis just to

1396
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:31,439
Speaker 4: see if anybody would come up and bite at that

1397
01:11:31,439 --> 01:11:34,240
Speaker 4: that level, you know what I mean, because like, do

1398
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:36,759
Speaker 4: you really or is this just smoke? Like nobody's really

1399
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 4: gonna believe that. But if this is generated somewhere else,

1400
01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:42,840
Speaker 4: and then you know, these executives are getting called on

1401
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:44,719
Speaker 4: now and all of a sudden, it's like, hey, really

1402
01:11:44,840 --> 01:11:47,800
Speaker 4: do like are you guys gonna take Levis? Look, I

1403
01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:49,640
Speaker 4: don't want to tell you who's on top of our

1404
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 4: border quarterback, but let's just say there's interest. Why are

1405
01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,200
Speaker 4: you interested in the trade? Like you know, like that's

1406
01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:57,439
Speaker 4: that's the sort of stuff that happens. That's why you

1407
01:11:57,439 --> 01:12:01,120
Speaker 4: hear rotation of different names at the top picks, because

1408
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 4: any bites for Will Anderson, no bites said Will Anderson.

1409
01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 2: How about Bryce Young? No bites said Bryce? What about

1410
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:10,559
Speaker 2: c J. Stroud, No bites, will Levis, anybody will Levis,

1411
01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 2: anybody will Levis.

1412
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:13,719
Speaker 4: They're trying to get somebody to creep up the board

1413
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:17,800
Speaker 4: and offer them everything for this pick. And you know

1414
01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:21,439
Speaker 4: this one was kind of generated online. So I feel

1415
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:21,960
Speaker 4: for the guy.

1416
01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 5: I stand by my opinion that I think Rich Hornberger

1417
01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:28,880
Speaker 5: would have been a fantastic auctioneer in another life. I

1418
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 5: think that's a I think you missed your calling. Rich,

1419
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:33,880
Speaker 5: you would have been you would I would have gone

1420
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:35,960
Speaker 5: to that auction and I would have just enjoyed myself.

1421
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 5: So the gambling markets in this draft, the draft in general,

1422
01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:46,799
Speaker 5: has become a much more interesting bettable experience since twenty twenty.

1423
01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:49,320
Speaker 5: Remember when when Roger Goodell was in his was in

1424
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,160
Speaker 5: his basement doing the draft and we didn't have a

1425
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 5: whole lot else to bet on during that time in

1426
01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:59,240
Speaker 5: April May of twenty twenty, and it became a spectacle

1427
01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 5: of gambling cronies where the market would steam in weird

1428
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:05,559
Speaker 5: directions and.

1429
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:06,799
Speaker 1: Rumors and all this stuff.

1430
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:10,280
Speaker 5: And it doesn't help that Reddit has just I mean,

1431
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 5: Reddit's been a treasure trove or maybe a pirate's nest

1432
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 5: of you know, Hornet's nest of bad info. You know,

1433
01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:19,040
Speaker 5: you get all the Reddit people that are buying game

1434
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,680
Speaker 5: stock stock that's been a disaster. And then it reminds

1435
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:26,559
Speaker 5: me the Levis rumor reminds me a lot of the

1436
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:27,040
Speaker 5: Super Bowl.

1437
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:27,960
Speaker 1: Guys. Remember when the.

1438
01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:32,920
Speaker 5: Super Bowl Pro Football Reference accidentally or someone went onto

1439
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:34,960
Speaker 5: the site and put the score of the Super Bowl

1440
01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:38,680
Speaker 5: on their site, and people went to go bet the

1441
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 5: final score prop based off of that absurd leak that

1442
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:48,919
Speaker 5: someone made up and just completely you know, fabricated. But frankly,

1443
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 5: people are goible and they want a quick score, and

1444
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 5: they want the information fed to them on a silver

1445
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:56,600
Speaker 5: platter and a spoon. I mean, I get people like

1446
01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:58,040
Speaker 5: these are my dms all the time?

1447
01:13:58,080 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 1: What are the.

1448
01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 5: Locks of the day? What's go? You know, it happens

1449
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,519
Speaker 5: all the time. And the we got a lot of

1450
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:09,600
Speaker 5: bad info in this draft. Everyone, even the smart insiders,

1451
01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:12,360
Speaker 5: the ones who do this for a living, the Peter Schragers,

1452
01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 5: the lance zerlines that are track record proven that having

1453
01:14:15,960 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 5: good information got completely duped in this draft. Everybody thought

1454
01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 5: the Colts were going to take will Levis at four.

1455
01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:24,640
Speaker 5: Will Levis was connected to the Colts at for this

1456
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:28,760
Speaker 5: entire pre draft process, and then on draft morning, an

1457
01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 5: agent tweeted out, Anthony richards is gonna go a lot

1458
01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 5: higher than people think in this draft. Yeah, And at

1459
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,800
Speaker 5: one point I thought it was the Titans trading up

1460
01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 5: into the top four to get Anthony Richardson.

1461
01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:40,120
Speaker 1: I sent you guys that text right before the draft.

1462
01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:43,000
Speaker 1: What happened was the Texans heard CJ.

1463
01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:45,599
Speaker 5: Stroud was going to and they were trying to get

1464
01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:47,760
Speaker 5: in front of the Texans to get CJ's draft. So

1465
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:50,960
Speaker 5: it just it's bizarre, and I think the draft markets

1466
01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:53,280
Speaker 5: in general are really changing. But yeah, a lot of

1467
01:14:53,320 --> 01:14:55,719
Speaker 5: bad information this year, guys, Watts.

1468
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:59,120
Speaker 3: We've got rich Ornberger Fenn State, all American. He's got

1469
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 3: good information. We've got Jared Smith fs O betting analyst.

1470
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:07,240
Speaker 3: He's got good information. Sometimes I'm Brian No, I've got

1471
01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 3: opinions information.

1472
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:11,360
Speaker 1: You're not mad.

1473
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,320
Speaker 5: You're mad at the information that I gave you guys

1474
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:15,439
Speaker 5: before the drafts Oh yeah, yeah, you're not.

1475
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:17,120
Speaker 1: Happy about that.

1476
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 5: It wasn't the greatest information I got duped too, Jay, yeah,

1477
01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 5: Sin Yeah, Oh that was me.

1478
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:27,120
Speaker 1: I was thinking that was all you were all over, Jays.

1479
01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:29,760
Speaker 3: That I thought Jackson Smith and Jigma might sneak into

1480
01:15:29,760 --> 01:15:30,479
Speaker 3: the top ten.

1481
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:32,200
Speaker 2: What I really met was the top twenty.

1482
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:37,080
Speaker 3: Hey you go, yeah right, just added extra ten to that.

1483
01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:40,439
Speaker 3: I think I texted it Twice's a count coming up next,

1484
01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:44,000

1493
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,519
Speaker 3: Our trusted producer Bo Benson, he just mentioned to me,

1494
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:16,719
Speaker 3: he goes uh. Dylan Bricks is trending on Twitter. Dylan

1495
01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 3: Brooks the Memphis Grizzlies. He is yappy, yappy, yet unproductive.

1496
01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:26,080
Speaker 3: Yeah player right there. But on the good side, how

1497
01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 3: about this kind of like the opposite of Dylan Bricks.

1498
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 3: That would be Dearn Fox, who has just been spectacular

1499
01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:38,040
Speaker 3: for the Sacramento Kings. As he comes back, he broke

1500
01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:42,200
Speaker 3: his finger. It's like the his left fingertip. He broke

1501
01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:45,439
Speaker 3: it in Game four and I thought, well, it's a rap.

1502
01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:48,880
Speaker 3: They're done without him. He's him missed the beat. He

1503
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,559
Speaker 3: played in game five. They lost that game. But Game

1504
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:54,880
Speaker 3: six on the road last night, the Kings with a

1505
01:16:54,960 --> 01:17:00,120
Speaker 3: surprising performance. They beat Golden State decisively. They held gold

1506
01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:04,440
Speaker 3: State to ninety nine points. Very surprising performance by the Warriors,

1507
01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:08,320
Speaker 3: the defending champs. But you got to give dearon Fox's roses.

1508
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:11,120
Speaker 3: He is listened to this stat the third player in

1509
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 3: NBA history with twenty points and five assists in each

1510
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 3: of his first six playoff games. It's the third time

1511
01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:21,439
Speaker 3: it's happened in NBA history. And he went for twenty

1512
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 3: six points eleven assists last night. He has been tremendous.

1513
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:28,719
Speaker 3: So shout out to de Aaron Fox and light the beam,

1514
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 3: light the beat. Those fans will go nuts if they

1515
01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:32,719
Speaker 3: win Game seven tomorrow.

1516
01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:35,240
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Yeah, that's been such a fun story

1517
01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:38,280
Speaker 2: to follow in. Fox, like you said, deserves his flowers.

1518
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:44,040
Speaker 4: It's amazing how you know the playoffs will make certain players.

1519
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:47,400
Speaker 4: You know, if you look to the NFL, how many

1520
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:52,280
Speaker 4: you know, uh receivers has Tom Brady made in the

1521
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 4: postseason or even just offensive skill position players, Danny am Mondola,

1522
01:17:56,640 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 4: playoff Danny. You know, Wes Welker, Julian Edelman that Super

1523
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,599
Speaker 4: Bowl against the Falcons, playoff Lenny. He literally gave him

1524
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:10,680
Speaker 4: the nickname. Leonard Fournette with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You know,

1525
01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:14,120
Speaker 4: there are certain guys who in the postseason, you know,

1526
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:18,639
Speaker 4: mister October, Reggie Jackson with the Yankees, like they go

1527
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:20,920
Speaker 4: down as all time postseason greats.

1528
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:22,800
Speaker 2: Like this guy is.

1529
01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:27,720
Speaker 4: He's making his name right now, and it's amazing when

1530
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 4: that's juxtaposed against what.

1531
01:18:29,600 --> 01:18:31,200
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks did to his career.

1532
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:34,639
Speaker 4: Like I mean, like I not a lot of people

1533
01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:37,800
Speaker 4: were saying his name all that often prior to this

1534
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:41,760
Speaker 4: postseason and and that whole commentary about how he likes

1535
01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:46,240
Speaker 4: to poke Bears, Well Bears poked back, buddy. But Darren

1536
01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:50,000
Speaker 4: Fox quietly or I should say loudly now making his

1537
01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:53,040
Speaker 4: name known as one of the best in the league.

1538
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:57,080
Speaker 4: And he's doing it the right way, like the Beam.

1539
01:18:57,120 --> 01:19:00,280
Speaker 5: It is a really fun team. It's a fun story.

1540
01:19:00,640 --> 01:19:03,400
Speaker 5: I think when you look at what Sacramento is if

1541
01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:04,960
Speaker 5: they were able to pull this. First of all, they

1542
01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 5: were a big underdog in the series to begin with,

1543
01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:10,360
Speaker 5: despite having home court similar not as big of ann

1544
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:12,640
Speaker 5: or not. They were a bigger underdog than what the

1545
01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 5: Nuggets are with home court against the Suns today. But

1546
01:19:16,479 --> 01:19:19,120
Speaker 5: it is interesting to see a team that's an underdog

1547
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:24,160
Speaker 5: now get a game seven at home. Fascinating stuff. I'm

1548
01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,800
Speaker 5: rooting for the Kings. I'm absolutely in the Kings bandwagon.

1549
01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:32,200
Speaker 5: I think it's a fun team, a fun story. Mike

1550
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 5: Brown is a very underrated head coach, and they're gonna

1551
01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:37,640
Speaker 5: be a tough out. I this is gonna be a

1552
01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:40,920
Speaker 5: really good game. I think can Sacramento tomorrow.

1553
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

1554
01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:46,360
Speaker 3: They always say this in golf drive for show, putt

1555
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 3: for Doe, And if you look at basketball, the postseason

1556
01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:52,080
Speaker 3: is putting for dough.

1557
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:52,559
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1558
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 3: I mean that's where you really make your name. And

1559
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:59,439
Speaker 3: if you look at John Morant compared to Deer and Fox,

1560
01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 3: it's advantaged Fox in the playoffs this season by far.

1561
01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:09,200
Speaker 3: And Dylan Bricks that's the reason why it's trending on Twitter.

1562
01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 3: It's not because he had a bad January, you know

1563
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:14,519
Speaker 3: what I mean, It's because he had a bad playoff series.

1564
01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:17,960
Speaker 3: There's no doubt coming up next. The ceiling is often

1565
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:19,880
Speaker 3: seductive to a fault.

1566
01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:22,120
Speaker 2: Ah, the ceiling.

1567
01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:25,360
Speaker 3: You gotta talk about the ceiling when it comes to

1568
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:29,400
Speaker 3: the NFL draft, no doubt about it. It's contractually obligated,

1569
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:29,880
Speaker 3: by the way.

1570
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:31,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if you knew that, but it is.

1571
01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:34,600
Speaker 3: And we're broadcasting live from the tirack dot com studios.

1572

Speaker 3: Tirack dot com will help get you there an unmatched selection, fast,

1574
01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:46,000
Speaker 3: recommended installers. Tirack dot com the way tire buying should be.

1575
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,280
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, fellas. If you look at Anthony Richardson

1576
01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:54,120
Speaker 3: quarterback out of Florida, he goes to the Colts with

1577
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,479
Speaker 3: the number four overall pick, and you hear a lot

1578
01:20:57,520 --> 01:20:59,880
Speaker 3: about the ceiling. He's got a lot of potential, there's

1579
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:02,680
Speaker 3: no doubt about that. But here's how I think of it.

1580
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:04,840
Speaker 3: I want to hear what you guys think as well.

1581
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:09,800
Speaker 3: When I always hear the ceiling and the potential and

1582
01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:13,479
Speaker 3: all of that, that's great, but I always say, what

1583
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 3: is most likely to be realized?

1584
01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:18,519
Speaker 2: That's what really matters. Your potential.

1585
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:21,960
Speaker 3: That's great, but what are you most likely going to

1586
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 3: see in terms of this pro realizing His potential. So

1587
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:29,879
Speaker 3: I put it like this, think of a real tall building,

1588
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:35,800
Speaker 3: you know, real tall building, And if Anthony Richardson, if

1589
01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:39,840
Speaker 3: we're thinking of it in terms of potential, like his

1590
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,960
Speaker 3: top floor might be the fiftieth floor. Okay, like that's

1591
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,479
Speaker 3: his ceiling. Maybe Will Levis let's just say it's lower,

1592
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:52,320
Speaker 3: it's the forty fifth floor. Okay, that's fine, that's just potential.

1593
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:58,720
Speaker 3: But production wise, if Anthony Richardson's elevator just goes to

1594
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:03,479
Speaker 3: the thirtieth floor in terms of production and Levice's goes higher,

1595
01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 3: I really don't care about the ceiling, you know what

1596
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:09,599
Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like, yeah, it's cool to talk about the ceiling,

1597
01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:13,439
Speaker 3: that's fine, but be realistic about how much of that

1598
01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:17,400
Speaker 3: potential is actually going to be realized. It's just a

1599
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:20,760
Speaker 3: way to check yourself instead of just saying, well, look

1600
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:24,559
Speaker 3: at the potential. It's okay, fine, but really walk through

1601
01:22:24,640 --> 01:22:26,559
Speaker 3: what do you think is going to be realized? What's

1602
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:28,760
Speaker 3: the production going to be like? Because that's the only

1603
01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:30,439
Speaker 3: thing that truly matters well.

1604
01:22:30,479 --> 01:22:33,960
Speaker 4: And also, when we use terms like that, we feel

1605
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:34,920
Speaker 4: like they are.

1606
01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:41,040
Speaker 2: Definitive terms. They're just not. They're just not.

1607
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:44,920
Speaker 4: Like I just mentioned his name, and you know again,

1608
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:48,080
Speaker 4: I'm kinda I'm kind of in the misty eyed, you know,

1609
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:52,280
Speaker 4: review of my own draft day. I remember we got

1610
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:58,800
Speaker 4: seventh rounder out of Kent State Julian Edelman, who was

1611
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 4: a dual threat court back and he ended up becoming

1612
01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:05,600
Speaker 4: one of the best receivers during his career with the

1613
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:08,960
Speaker 4: New England Patriots. You know, he he helped them win

1614
01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:11,719
Speaker 4: a Super Bowl. He helped them win multiple Super Bowls,

1615
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:15,280
Speaker 4: you know he. I mean you if we talked about

1616
01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:19,360
Speaker 4: Julian Edelman's NFL ceiling, yeah, when he was drafted, we'd

1617
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:23,120
Speaker 4: be talking about a low drop ceiling that like when

1618
01:23:23,120 --> 01:23:24,920
Speaker 4: you walked into the room, you'd be like, this is

1619
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,680
Speaker 4: uncomfortably low, Like why did you guys put in a

1620
01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:30,160
Speaker 4: drop ceiling in this? But it makes no sense. I

1621
01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 4: mean it's stand there touching the door jam. What are

1622
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:35,760
Speaker 4: we doing here? Are these six and a half foot ceilings?

1623
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 4: Like what are you just hiding cash up there? Why

1624
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:41,599
Speaker 4: is there a false ceiling? But you get my point,

1625
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:45,160
Speaker 4: like I think this is just such an arbitrary term,

1626
01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:49,640
Speaker 4: Like like we're going to say today on April, you know,

1627
01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:53,439
Speaker 4: we're nearing the beginning of May, right, because I don't

1628
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:54,519
Speaker 4: have a calendar in front of me, and I have

1629
01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:56,559
Speaker 4: lost track of the dates. You get my point, though,

1630
01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 4: we're damn near May. You're gonna tell me what a

1631
01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:03,080
Speaker 4: NFL he is already, or what a year, what a

1632
01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:05,320
Speaker 4: career is gonna look like two or three years into

1633
01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:08,280
Speaker 4: the career, or where Anthony Richardson or Bryce Young or CJ.

1634
01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 4: Stroud or Will Anderson's or Jelly Carter's ceiling looks like now?

1635
01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:14,840
Speaker 4: Like nobody knows Will Levis, I mean, nobody has any

1636
01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 4: idea Tom Brady was a sixth rounder. I mean it

1637
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:21,800
Speaker 4: just it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what anybody thinks

1638
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:25,240
Speaker 4: the ceiling is. Because the truth is Bryce Young could

1639
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:29,759
Speaker 4: go into the NFL and suck. He could Will Levis

1640
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 4: could go into the NFL and maybe one day replaced

1641
01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:35,479
Speaker 4: Tom Brady as the greatest of all time.

1642
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 2: We don't know, nobody does.

1643
01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:42,439
Speaker 4: This is the inexact science of sports, you know, This

1644
01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:45,120
Speaker 4: is the reason why people who take such big swings

1645
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:46,920
Speaker 4: like the movie Air.

1646
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 2: I just saw that recently.

1647
01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:51,719
Speaker 4: It was great, Oh, incredible performances all around.

1648
01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:54,839
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan out of you and c could have sucked.

1649
01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,559
Speaker 2: That's the truth. It's the truth. Yeah, it's the truth.

1650
01:24:59,040 --> 01:24:59,280
Speaker 1: I mean.

1651
01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:02,360
Speaker 4: And guess what Sonny Vaccaro and Phil Knight and the

1652
01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:05,400
Speaker 4: the execs said, Nike, they could have all been fired.

1653
01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:06,559
Speaker 2: They could have been.

1654
01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:10,280
Speaker 4: Thrown out of there for for betting the entire farm

1655
01:25:10,560 --> 01:25:15,120
Speaker 4: of their marketing budget on this, this this great athlete

1656
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,719
Speaker 4: out of UNC because he looked great on paper, and

1657
01:25:17,760 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 4: the scout said, hey, yeah, he's a sure fire, but

1658
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,519
Speaker 4: it could have all failed. You just don't know until

1659
01:25:23,560 --> 01:25:27,320
Speaker 4: you know. So I can't wait to see, like the

1660
01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:31,439
Speaker 4: day that comes where you know, we did this actually

1661
01:25:31,479 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 4: a year ago, Isaac Pacheco, you know, Brock Purdy, did

1662
01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:39,479
Speaker 4: you guys see the NFL draft commercial where they were, Yeah,

1663
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:42,760
Speaker 4: the analysis on them, you know it. People miss on

1664
01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:45,160
Speaker 4: their analysis. They miss on what the ceiling for these

1665
01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:47,160
Speaker 4: athletes are all the time. So I don't put much

1666
01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:48,719
Speaker 4: stock into it in the first place.

1667
01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:53,080
Speaker 1: The ceiling is the roof. Yeah, great, Michael Jordan would say,

1668
01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:54,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know what he I still don't know

1669
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 1: what he means by that.

1670
01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 5: Half years later, but here's here's a list of some

1671
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:04,759
Speaker 5: great third day draft stars. Geno Atkins, Richard Sherman, David

1672
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:09,840
Speaker 5: Bachtiari Jason Kelcey right, Like these are foundational pieces on

1673
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:14,240
Speaker 5: their respective teams. Obviously Richard Sherman's moved on, but the

1674
01:26:14,280 --> 01:26:19,360
Speaker 5: other guy is still still active. It just it goes

1675
01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:22,439
Speaker 5: to show you just there's value in this draft at

1676
01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:26,160
Speaker 5: all turns. And I don't know what the Will Levis

1677
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:29,519
Speaker 5: ending will be. Here's what I know today. He got

1678
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:32,760
Speaker 5: drafted later than people thought. Maybe he got drafted where

1679
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,240
Speaker 5: he should have been drafted, but just the hype surrounding

1680
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:37,400
Speaker 5: it was obviously fake.

1681
01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:40,720
Speaker 1: And he wakes up today as the.

1682
01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,880
Speaker 5: Third string quarterback on a team that I think has

1683
01:26:43,920 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 5: playoff hopes, but let's be honest, probably isn't a playoff

1684
01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 5: team this year. He's the third string quarterback on maybe

1685
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,320
Speaker 5: the second or third best team in the AFC South.

1686
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:58,519
Speaker 2: But you know that's gonna change fast. Maybe Sano out

1687
01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:01,280
Speaker 2: there for the long haul. Eleaku will a done no like.

1688
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: But what is he this year?

1689
01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:05,280
Speaker 5: Like, We're not gonna know the But by my point being,

1690
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:08,040
Speaker 5: we're not gonna know the answer on Will Levis this year,

1691
01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 5: whereas I think we're gonna get the answer on a

1692
01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:13,360
Speaker 5: lot of other guys a lot sooner. Like I don't

1693
01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:14,960
Speaker 5: know if we're gonna see will Levis play it all

1694
01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:15,320
Speaker 5: this year?

1695
01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:18,439
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know. I don't think so when

1696
01:27:18,439 --> 01:27:20,960
Speaker 1: you start as the third string quarterback on your depth chart,

1697
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:22,599
Speaker 1: you're right, there could be a lot of changes.

1698
01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:26,280
Speaker 5: Brian Ryan Tannehill could could get hurt again. And Malik Willis.

1699
01:27:26,320 --> 01:27:28,599
Speaker 5: You know, they don't love Willis. I know that that's

1700
01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:31,720
Speaker 5: why they drafted Levis where they did. I just I

1701
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:34,400
Speaker 5: don't know how it's It's really hard and that's why

1702
01:27:34,439 --> 01:27:37,479
Speaker 5: the draft is a hard thing to grade. And we

1703
01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:40,479
Speaker 5: all have our opinions, but it's gonna be months, if

1704
01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,320
Speaker 5: not years, until we really get the final answer on

1705
01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:43,679
Speaker 5: a lot.

1706
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 1: Of these guys.

1707
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:46,439
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's the thing is and there's you know

1708
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:49,320
Speaker 3: how it goes. There's gonna be instant analysis. Oh yeah,

1709
01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:51,360
Speaker 3: but it's gonna take a little while. And I think

1710
01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,000
Speaker 3: one of the things that we don't spend as much

1711
01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:56,719
Speaker 3: time as we should now that we know where these

1712
01:27:56,760 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 3: players have gone, these five quarterbacks have gone. Where you

1713
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,880
Speaker 3: have you know the top three guys, three of the

1714
01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:07,080
Speaker 3: first four picks. Bryce Young goes to Carolina. We all

1715
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:10,080
Speaker 3: know about c J. Stroud going to Houston. Anthony Richardson

1716
01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:13,680
Speaker 3: with the Colts, thirty third overall Will Levis to the Titans,

1717
01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:17,000
Speaker 3: and then you get Hendon Hooker going sixty eighth overall

1718
01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 3: to the Lions. Now that you know where they are,

1719
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:25,280
Speaker 3: it's interesting to look at what talent they have or

1720
01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 3: what they lack around them. And I think the biggest

1721
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:32,120
Speaker 3: transition is going to be CJ. Stroud right now, going

1722
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:35,080
Speaker 3: from what he had at Ohio State, which was a

1723
01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:41,160
Speaker 3: who's who, to Nico Collins and Noah Brown. Are you serious?

1724
01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:44,360
Speaker 3: Those are the weapons to throw to? So I think

1725
01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 3: that we mentioned Josh Allen quite a bit the Bills quarterback,

1726
01:28:48,479 --> 01:28:50,920
Speaker 3: and his first two years were not very good at all.

1727
01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:52,639
Speaker 2: And what did they do? Year three?

1728
01:28:52,760 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 3: They got this guy named Stefan Diggs who helped them

1729
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:58,920
Speaker 3: quite a bit. And it wasn't all just Diggs. Allen

1730
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:02,639
Speaker 3: did a lot to work on his footwork. He really

1731
01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:06,599
Speaker 3: basically fixed his accuracy issues. So he did a lot

1732
01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:10,599
Speaker 3: on his own. But what you're surrounded by matters as well.

1733
01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:13,599
Speaker 3: And so when you go team by a team and

1734
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:17,120
Speaker 3: you look at Carolina traded a boatload to get Bryce Young,

1735
01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:21,479
Speaker 3: Houston traded a boatload to get Will Anderson Junior, who

1736
01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:23,560
Speaker 3: might be good, but he plays defense, you know what

1737
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:26,400
Speaker 3: I mean, Like Indianapolis has to upgrade the talent around

1738
01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:27,920
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson a lot.

1739
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:29,759
Speaker 2: It's not like Tennessee.

1740
01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:32,760
Speaker 3: The cupboard is full to capacity over there, right, So

1741
01:29:33,320 --> 01:29:36,080
Speaker 3: you've got to do a lot more to compliment these players.

1742
01:29:36,120 --> 01:29:38,960
Speaker 3: And what you're saying, Jared is there's gonna be instant analysis.

1743
01:29:38,960 --> 01:29:40,920
Speaker 3: But you're right, it might take a couple of years

1744
01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:44,200
Speaker 3: to have a firm sense of this is the guy.

1745
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:45,880
Speaker 3: We thought RG three was going to be a stud

1746
01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:46,599
Speaker 3: after year one.

1747
01:29:46,680 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 2: Oh that case.

1748
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,240
Speaker 3: We thought Josh Allen was a dead after two years,

1749
01:29:50,760 --> 01:29:52,559
Speaker 3: not the case. So it does take time.

1750
01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:56,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Peyton Manning led the league in interceptions

1751
01:29:56,560 --> 01:30:00,759
Speaker 4: famously as rookie year. I mean, he stunk out loud,

1752
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:04,600
Speaker 4: he was terrible, and he goes down as one of

1753
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:07,360
Speaker 4: the greatest quarterbacks of all time. Like it is so

1754
01:30:07,720 --> 01:30:11,519
Speaker 4: easy for us, you know, to pencil whip something and say, hey,

1755
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:12,479
Speaker 4: I'm turning in.

1756
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 2: My class project CJ.

1757
01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 4: Stroud is is gonna be good, and it's just like, okay, okay,

1758
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:22,320
Speaker 4: based on what what he did in college. That has

1759
01:30:22,560 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 4: never been an accurate rubric to base your assessment off

1760
01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:31,920
Speaker 4: of because there are certain guys who are incredible in

1761
01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:35,840
Speaker 4: college who go to the NFL and just struggle, and

1762
01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:40,080
Speaker 4: it's situationally, or it's the teammates to have around them,

1763
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,120
Speaker 4: or it's the money and the fame and the acclaim,

1764
01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:47,280
Speaker 4: or the pressure, or the coaching, or the culture or

1765
01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:52,599
Speaker 4: the geographic location. I mean, there's so many factors. There's

1766
01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 4: so many variables. It's impossible to know if a guy

1767
01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:58,639
Speaker 4: is going to make it at the next level. Now,

1768
01:30:59,160 --> 01:31:01,960
Speaker 4: there are certain person that you play, you know, I

1769
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 4: think it's something like there's a fifty percent hit rate

1770
01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:10,679
Speaker 4: if you are five star recruit out of high school

1771
01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:13,160
Speaker 4: that you'll end up in the NFL. Right, you know

1772
01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:15,439
Speaker 4: that you'll be talented enough during your college career to

1773
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:18,240
Speaker 4: end up in the NFL. So you play those percentages.

1774
01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:22,160
Speaker 4: You know, there's there's something like a forty percent, maybe

1775
01:31:22,160 --> 01:31:24,519
Speaker 4: it's something less than maybe it's a thirty five percent

1776
01:31:24,600 --> 01:31:27,360
Speaker 4: hit rate. If you take a first round quarterback that

1777
01:31:27,880 --> 01:31:30,880
Speaker 4: he's going to turn into your franchise quarterback and at

1778
01:31:31,080 --> 01:31:35,680
Speaker 4: very least by all criteria, be considered good. Those percentages

1779
01:31:35,720 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 4: are pretty low, but it's a really important position in

1780
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:42,559
Speaker 4: the NFL, and if you can hit on thirty three

1781
01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:45,200
Speaker 4: percent even you're going to take that risk if you're

1782
01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:48,120
Speaker 4: a general manager, because if you get one of the

1783
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:51,000
Speaker 4: great ones, you're going to have a job for a

1784
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:54,599
Speaker 4: long time. So look, you got to pick somebody, and

1785
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,200
Speaker 4: you know, when your time on the clock comes, you

1786
01:31:58,320 --> 01:32:01,120
Speaker 4: better have a good reason to take a guy, and

1787
01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,559
Speaker 4: you better have a lot of scouting and a lot

1788
01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:07,040
Speaker 4: of interviews with that guy, and a lot of conversations

1789
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:09,360
Speaker 4: with his agent, and a lot of conversations with his

1790
01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:12,400
Speaker 4: parents and his high school coaches and do all the background.

1791
01:32:12,760 --> 01:32:15,080
Speaker 4: But we all know because we've been watching this game

1792
01:32:15,160 --> 01:32:18,120
Speaker 4: long enough. Should I played it? When you get out

1793
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 4: there and the bullets are flying for real, some guys

1794
01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:21,679
Speaker 4: can do it and some guys can't.

1795
01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:23,800
Speaker 2: And we're not exactly sure why that is.

1796
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:25,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's why the CJ.

1797
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:30,519
Speaker 5: Strouts does interesting because the pre draft process was very

1798
01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:34,439
Speaker 5: negative with him. Yeah, way more negative with him than

1799
01:32:34,479 --> 01:32:35,679
Speaker 5: any of the other guys.

1800
01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,240
Speaker 2: And from what I think, it was way more with Willis.

1801
01:32:38,280 --> 01:32:40,439
Speaker 3: You don't think so you thought it was more negative

1802
01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:44,000
Speaker 3: with Stroud than than will The thrill Levis.

1803
01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:47,080
Speaker 5: Well, the S two score, I mean it was you

1804
01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:49,559
Speaker 5: know that that was the real part about it. And

1805
01:32:49,680 --> 01:32:52,280
Speaker 5: from what I'm hearing, it was fat not fabricated, but

1806
01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:57,840
Speaker 5: the score wasn't as low as what was reported. And yeah,

1807
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:01,000
Speaker 5: I think Levis, I mean there were I sent you

1808
01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:01,959
Speaker 5: guys the reports.

1809
01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:03,479
Speaker 1: I still have it in my inbox.

1810
01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:07,439
Speaker 5: The scouting report of Levis from the Combine was that

1811
01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:09,080
Speaker 5: he was going to be the number one pick. I

1812
01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:12,880
Speaker 5: still have that in my inbox from things that I

1813
01:33:12,920 --> 01:33:15,800
Speaker 5: tweeted out during the pre draft process because I thought

1814
01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:18,640
Speaker 5: to myself, I tweeted out two things critical of the

1815
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:21,320
Speaker 5: pre draft process. The first was how people thought Anthony

1816
01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:22,840
Speaker 5: Richardson was gonna be the number one pick. I was like,

1817
01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:25,240
Speaker 5: what do we watch the games this year? And second

1818
01:33:25,479 --> 01:33:27,000
Speaker 5: was how we thought will Lewis was going to be

1819
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:28,920
Speaker 5: the number one pick? Similar do we watch the games

1820
01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:33,639
Speaker 5: this year? It was so positive about their physical tools

1821
01:33:34,160 --> 01:33:38,360
Speaker 5: and so negative about c J. Stroud's mental acuity. That

1822
01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:40,760
Speaker 5: was all I heard during the pre draft process was

1823
01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:44,679
Speaker 5: Richardson and Levis were just these physical specimens and teams

1824
01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:48,880
Speaker 5: were drooling over them, and that CJ. Stroud teams were

1825
01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:51,480
Speaker 5: a little concerned about the mentals and how he diagnosed

1826
01:33:51,520 --> 01:33:53,639
Speaker 5: defenses and the S two score and all that stuff.

1827
01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:56,880
Speaker 5: Those were That was the smoke I heard about these

1828
01:33:56,920 --> 01:33:58,120
Speaker 5: quarterbacks leading up to the draft.

1829
01:33:58,120 --> 01:33:59,400
Speaker 1: Didn't hear much about Bryce Young.

1830
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:02,360
Speaker 5: Makes sense, everyone kind of knew going forward he was

1831
01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:03,240
Speaker 5: gonna be the number one pick.

1832
01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:05,360
Speaker 1: There wasn't need to smoke.

1833
01:34:05,120 --> 01:34:07,360
Speaker 5: Him up or smoke him down in any way because

1834
01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:09,439
Speaker 5: he was going on and that was the end of it.

1835
01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:12,000
Speaker 1: But the other three there was a lot of this jockeying.

1836
01:34:12,560 --> 01:34:15,920
Speaker 5: And I think even even Chris Ballard the Colts GM,

1837
01:34:15,960 --> 01:34:18,479
Speaker 5: if you watch his post draft interview, even he was

1838
01:34:18,520 --> 01:34:21,559
Speaker 5: critical of the negative smoke that CJ. Stroud was getting.

1839
01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:23,719
Speaker 5: He came out and said it. He said, I hated

1840
01:34:23,960 --> 01:34:26,280
Speaker 5: the way he was covered. He didn't mention Stroud by name,

1841
01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:28,240
Speaker 5: but you can kind of read between the lines who

1842
01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:30,680
Speaker 5: he was talking about based on the two score and

1843
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:33,240
Speaker 5: some of the other things that were reported. And it's

1844
01:34:33,280 --> 01:34:36,479
Speaker 5: gonna be interesting to see which quarterback uses this as

1845
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:39,360
Speaker 5: a chip. Bryce Young obviously isn't gonna use that as

1846
01:34:39,400 --> 01:34:41,240
Speaker 5: motivation he was the number one pick, although he could

1847
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:44,439
Speaker 5: find his own motivation. Richardson kind of got picked where

1848
01:34:44,479 --> 01:34:46,920
Speaker 5: he maybe was supposed to. But CJ. Stroud a lot

1849
01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:48,840
Speaker 5: of negative a lot of people coming out and say

1850
01:34:48,880 --> 01:34:51,600
Speaker 5: he can't diagnose defenses, not smart enough to play in

1851
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,080
Speaker 5: the NFL. And Will Levis, of course, with the slide,

1852
01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:57,360
Speaker 5: those two guys now have these natural chips that they

1853
01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:00,120
Speaker 5: could put on their shoulder and use his fuel. And

1854
01:35:00,280 --> 01:35:02,080
Speaker 5: it'll be interesting to see which one kind of comes

1855
01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:05,760
Speaker 5: out with the better career, because I think Stroud and Levis,

1856
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:08,320
Speaker 5: you know, Richardson got drafted higher than I think some

1857
01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:12,200
Speaker 5: people thought Bryce got taken first. Richardson and Levis have

1858
01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:14,600
Speaker 5: these kind of stigmas, you know, and it will be

1859
01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:17,000
Speaker 5: curious to see or Stroud and Levis have these kind

1860
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:18,920
Speaker 5: of stigmas. It'll be interesting to see which one uses

1861
01:35:18,960 --> 01:35:21,120
Speaker 5: that as motivation has a better pro career.

1862
01:35:21,479 --> 01:35:24,519
Speaker 3: I think it would be hilarious if Willis in the

1863
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:26,840
Speaker 3: same division. I don't know why I keep going calling

1864
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,519
Speaker 3: him Willis. I think it's because we talked about a

1865
01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:33,840
Speaker 3: second Will the thrill. It'd be hilarious if Levis is

1866
01:35:33,920 --> 01:35:37,400
Speaker 3: better than top five picks C. J. Stroud and Anthony.

1867
01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:38,880
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, and they're all in the same division.

1868
01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:40,519
Speaker 2: They're all in the same division.

1869
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:41,160
Speaker 1: Fascinating.

1870
01:35:41,439 --> 01:35:44,479
Speaker 3: It would really hilarious. Oh yeah, you know how it

1871
01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:46,599
Speaker 3: goes with the fan bases, You know. I was doing

1872
01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:50,559
Speaker 3: a fill in show in Indianapolis yesterday and I'm like, yeah,

1873
01:35:50,600 --> 01:35:53,480
Speaker 3: I know, I just I'm not sold on Anthony Richardson.

1874
01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:56,080
Speaker 3: He threw three hundred and ninety three passes in college.

1875
01:35:56,120 --> 01:35:58,800
Speaker 5: What do the Hoosiers fans think about, Oh my god,

1876
01:35:58,960 --> 01:35:59,400
Speaker 5: this dude.

1877
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:00,519
Speaker 1: Everyone thought Levis.

1878
01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:04,559
Speaker 3: Well, well, now that it's Anthony Richardson, this guy look

1879
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:05,440
Speaker 3: at the potential.

1880
01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:11,320
Speaker 2: He's like, ohlay, He's like, well, I will say I

1881
01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:11,960
Speaker 2: will say this.

1882
01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:14,880
Speaker 4: You know, you know, when you when you evaluate some

1883
01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 4: of the things that he did in the college football season,

1884
01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:20,960
Speaker 4: and and you get to see some of the tape

1885
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:25,400
Speaker 4: that maybe you miss before there there there are arguments

1886
01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:28,240
Speaker 4: to be made based on the tape that he's better

1887
01:36:28,280 --> 01:36:31,680
Speaker 4: than maybe he looked on the statu sheet. But at

1888
01:36:31,680 --> 01:36:35,320
Speaker 4: the same token, all of this is looking through life

1889
01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:39,040
Speaker 4: wearing the Pollyanna lenses, you know, the rose colored glasses,

1890
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:43,720
Speaker 4: like where I mean, it could be awful or it

1891
01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:47,360
Speaker 4: could be great, or guess what, it's most likely somewhere

1892
01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:50,960
Speaker 4: in between. But but the reality is you can't. You

1893
01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:54,400
Speaker 4: can almost base nothing off of what you think may

1894
01:36:54,439 --> 01:36:57,879
Speaker 4: happen from what you saw on on on film because

1895
01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:00,840
Speaker 4: how many times has that happened where you know, there's

1896
01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:03,559
Speaker 4: there's even guys who have struggled at the college level

1897
01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:06,160
Speaker 4: who came to the NFL and just figured it out then,

1898
01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:10,400
Speaker 4: because some people even physically don't mature enough until they

1899
01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:12,639
Speaker 4: get to the NFL. The FAY makes the example there

1900
01:37:12,720 --> 01:37:15,840
Speaker 4: is James Harrison, you know, I mean it's you just

1901
01:37:16,240 --> 01:37:18,920
Speaker 4: you just never know. It's such a blind faith thing.

1902
01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:22,400
Speaker 4: And the fact that there are million dollars to spend,

1903
01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:25,879
Speaker 4: millions of dollars to spend, and you have to pick somebody. Anyways,

1904
01:37:26,320 --> 01:37:29,200
Speaker 4: making a justification for why a team is a genius

1905
01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:32,640
Speaker 4: in the spring is what the fan base's job is.

1906
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:36,720
Speaker 4: So I'm sure in Indianapolis, in Carolina, in Houston, they

1907
01:37:36,720 --> 01:37:38,240
Speaker 4: are cheering on their franchise.

1908
01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:40,439
Speaker 2: It's like, we got our guy, we got our guy.

1909
01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:41,559
Speaker 2: Everything's gonna be fine.

1910
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:46,920
Speaker 3: Everything's what's crazy, too, is those those teams might have

1911
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:50,280
Speaker 3: gotten their guy, but the Jaguars in that division definitely

1912
01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:51,840
Speaker 3: helped their guy guy.

1913
01:37:52,560 --> 01:37:56,519
Speaker 5: That's an interesting judgtaposition because all three of those teams

1914
01:37:56,520 --> 01:37:59,680
Speaker 5: that we just mentioned with these new quarterbacks. Meanwhile the

1915
01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:02,360
Speaker 5: ja just sitting up there kicking their feet up. Would

1916
01:38:02,360 --> 01:38:05,439
Speaker 5: they go O line in the first round. Right, yeah, wait, yep,

1917
01:38:05,479 --> 01:38:06,000
Speaker 5: we're good.

1918
01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:06,680
Speaker 1: We're all right.

1919
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:09,080
Speaker 5: We got the guy we want. We got Evan Ingram,

1920
01:38:09,080 --> 01:38:11,000
Speaker 5: and we got all these great receivers. We got our

1921
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:13,920
Speaker 5: great offensive coordinator, great mind, Dug Peterson head coach.

1922
01:38:14,040 --> 01:38:16,240
Speaker 1: We're just gonna go offensive tackle in the first round.

1923
01:38:16,280 --> 01:38:18,080
Speaker 1: And like you guys, worry about all that quarterbacks.

1924
01:38:18,160 --> 01:38:21,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely all right. We've got rich Oronberger Penn State, all American.

1925
01:38:21,760 --> 01:38:23,719
Speaker 2: We've got Jared Smith FSR betting gunners.

1926
01:38:24,840 --> 01:38:27,840
Speaker 3: I'm Brian No, I don't know why I'm talking so fast.

1927
01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:29,280
Speaker 2: It that way coming up with.

1928
01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:33,240
Speaker 3: Next This strategy would have made sense, but no team

1929
01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:36,320
Speaker 3: elected to do it. It's Fox Sports Saturday right here

Speaker 2: Slash match.

1937
01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:59,200
Speaker 3: You know this strategy made sense, no team elected to

1938
01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:01,240
Speaker 3: do it. At the top of the NFL draft, which

1939
01:39:01,439 --> 01:39:05,760
Speaker 3: was hey, don't go with the quarterback. This year, if

1940
01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:09,479
Speaker 3: you're expected to have a bad season, maybe you're in

1941
01:39:09,520 --> 01:39:12,759
Speaker 3: line to draft a guy like Caleb Williams from USC

1942
01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:17,679
Speaker 3: or Drake May from North Carolina. It was an interesting thought, like, hey,

1943
01:39:17,680 --> 01:39:21,120
Speaker 3: maybe the Texans do that. Maybe they defer to the

1944
01:39:21,160 --> 01:39:23,920
Speaker 3: second half, if you will, and look at the twenty

1945
01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:26,880
Speaker 3: twenty four draft, and that did not turn out to

1946
01:39:26,880 --> 01:39:30,080
Speaker 3: be the reality over here, as these quarterback needy teams

1947
01:39:30,080 --> 01:39:33,479
Speaker 3: they just couldn't wait an extra season. And I get

1948
01:39:33,520 --> 01:39:35,920
Speaker 3: both sides of it. On one side, you could say

1949
01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:40,800
Speaker 3: there are some coaches that are just drooling over Caleb Williams.

1950
01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:43,800
Speaker 3: In particular, there was a piece that Bruce Feldman did

1951
01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:47,360
Speaker 3: on The Athletic and he quoted a quarterback coach that

1952
01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:51,240
Speaker 3: said about Caleb Williams, his arm is special, his play

1953
01:39:51,240 --> 01:39:54,559
Speaker 3: extension is special, his throw selection is special. He's the

1954
01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:59,000
Speaker 3: closest I've seen to Mahomes. He's like a refined Mahomes.

1955
01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:00,879
Speaker 1: Oh Man, what.

1956
01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:01,639
Speaker 2: This guy said.

1957
01:40:02,439 --> 01:40:05,800
Speaker 3: So on that hand, I get why you would think

1958
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 3: about looking to next year's draft to address your quarterback position,

1959
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:12,519
Speaker 3: but not knowing where you're gonna be in the order.

1960
01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:16,320
Speaker 3: I understand that side of it too. Maybe the Texans

1961
01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:18,960
Speaker 3: mess around and they win a couple of games and

1962
01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:21,799
Speaker 3: they don't have a top two pick. That was possible

1963
01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:25,000
Speaker 3: also if they didn't go quarterback this draft. So I

1964
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:27,200
Speaker 3: see both sides of it. But I'll just say one

1965
01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:30,240
Speaker 3: last thing. If you look at the Seattle Seahawks, there

1966
01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:32,760
Speaker 3: were a lot of mock drafts that had the Seahawks

1967
01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:37,240
Speaker 3: getting Malik Willis as their quarterback last year, and they

1968
01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:40,800
Speaker 3: didn't do that. They went offensive line, and they were

1969
01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:44,040
Speaker 3: way better off doing it that way. So I understand

1970
01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:47,000
Speaker 3: all these teams they gotta have a quarterback, and that's fine.

1971
01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:52,120
Speaker 3: The man sometimes in this particular case, Waiting would play

1972
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:54,040
Speaker 3: out to be the better option of the two.

1973
01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:56,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you just never know.

1974
01:40:57,479 --> 01:41:00,240
Speaker 4: And like even Seattle using them as an example and

1975
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:03,439
Speaker 4: not to refute your point, because I think it's beautifully

1976
01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:07,720
Speaker 4: laid out, but they got lucky on Gino Smith. Yeah,

1977
01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:12,200
Speaker 4: I mean Geno Smith, even when Seattle signed him as

1978
01:41:12,240 --> 01:41:16,280
Speaker 4: their backup and they traded for Drew Locke, Like the

1979
01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:20,240
Speaker 4: thought process was like, we're gonna we're gonna struggle at

1980
01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:22,599
Speaker 4: that position this year, like we know it, we know it,

1981
01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:25,519
Speaker 4: We're but we're gonna make do. And you know what,

1982
01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:27,840
Speaker 4: We're gonna try to lean on our running game because

1983
01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,400
Speaker 4: we really have a lot of belief in our running

1984
01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:33,839
Speaker 4: back room, and we're gonna try to get better up front,

1985
01:41:34,040 --> 01:41:37,519
Speaker 4: and our long term goal, our long term strategy is

1986
01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,679
Speaker 4: gonna be let's just be good enough at quarterback, let's

1987
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:43,920
Speaker 4: possess the football, let's try to rebuild this defense, and

1988
01:41:44,320 --> 01:41:44,840
Speaker 4: let's see.

1989
01:41:44,720 --> 01:41:45,839
Speaker 2: Where we're at in division.

1990
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:49,040
Speaker 4: Okay, but Gino Smith was a happy surprise, and that's

1991
01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:54,640
Speaker 4: the reason why you can't really guess what you're gonna have.

1992
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:58,200
Speaker 4: You have to let these things unfold. Now, Seattle looks

1993
01:41:58,240 --> 01:42:02,120
Speaker 4: like geniuses because they got more out of Geno Smith

1994
01:42:02,160 --> 01:42:05,160
Speaker 4: than that anybody has, and he's been with multiple teams,

1995
01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:07,400
Speaker 4: and it puts them a little bit in the cat

1996
01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:10,880
Speaker 4: bird seat here, especially if he's able to revisit some

1997
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:13,639
Speaker 4: of what he was able to do last season this season.

1998
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:18,840
Speaker 4: It really gives them some buffer before or who knows.

1999
01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:20,880
Speaker 4: I don't even want to. I don't want to underplay

2000
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:23,920
Speaker 4: the ceiling for Gino Smith either. Who knows. Maybe this

2001
01:42:23,920 --> 01:42:25,840
Speaker 4: guy could end up winning a Super Bowl for them?

2002
01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,360
Speaker 4: I mean, is it a possibility?

2003
01:42:28,479 --> 01:42:28,759
Speaker 2: Sure?

2004
01:42:29,040 --> 01:42:33,400
Speaker 4: Is it gonna happen? I would bet no, But but

2005
01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:36,080
Speaker 4: he really turned in a nice season for them last year,

2006
01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:37,800
Speaker 4: so it puts them in a different stratosphere.

2007
01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:40,360
Speaker 2: But that was that was complete luck.

2008
01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:43,320
Speaker 4: You know, So any of these these teams who took

2009
01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:46,920
Speaker 4: a quarterback this season, even if there's a better crop

2010
01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:50,120
Speaker 4: coming in next year, just like the Arizona Cardinals did,

2011
01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:53,080
Speaker 4: sometimes you just go right back in and you get

2012
01:42:53,120 --> 01:42:56,200
Speaker 4: another quarterback, just like the Tennessee Titans did. You know,

2013
01:42:56,360 --> 01:42:56,960
Speaker 4: sometimes you.

2014
01:42:56,920 --> 01:42:59,920
Speaker 2: Feel like, you know what, maybe maybe we weren't.

2015
01:42:59,800 --> 01:43:03,479
Speaker 4: A thrilled with the selection we made, and instead of

2016
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:06,280
Speaker 4: going with Rosen, We're gonna draft a Kyler Murray, instead

2017
01:43:06,280 --> 01:43:08,479
Speaker 4: of going with the Willis, We're gonna draft the Levis,

2018
01:43:08,520 --> 01:43:10,720
Speaker 4: And we're gonna we're gonna roll the dice again and

2019
01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 4: see if we can come up with a better a

2020
01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:14,639
Speaker 4: better roll of the die this time.

2021
01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:18,920
Speaker 5: The one thing I've learned in the NFL the last

2022
01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:21,040
Speaker 5: few years, especially now that I do this every day,

2023
01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:24,400
Speaker 5: and it's it's like my it really is just it's

2024
01:43:24,479 --> 01:43:24,960
Speaker 5: it's just a.

2025
01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:27,080
Speaker 1: Chore to stay up with these teams.

2026
01:43:27,560 --> 01:43:29,920
Speaker 5: But the one thing I've really noticed is there is

2027
01:43:30,040 --> 01:43:33,160
Speaker 5: not a lot of this long term strategy with the draft.

2028
01:43:33,720 --> 01:43:38,559
Speaker 5: Every team every year is its own independent event, and

2029
01:43:38,800 --> 01:43:42,120
Speaker 5: I don't think you really can have this, Oh, we'll

2030
01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:45,040
Speaker 5: just punt till next year and draft Caleb Williams. Well,

2031
01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:47,200
Speaker 5: first of all, Kayleb Williams played twenty five games in

2032
01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:50,519
Speaker 5: college football, Like, can we let the guy play he had?

2033
01:43:50,600 --> 01:43:54,400
Speaker 5: He hadn't even played two full seasons, So I that

2034
01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:56,760
Speaker 5: needs to be the first part of the equation is

2035
01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,080
Speaker 5: we are all we're going all in next year for

2036
01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:02,080
Speaker 5: a guy that we don't know yet anything that's going

2037
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,800
Speaker 5: to take place this season. We don't know how any

2038
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:07,120
Speaker 5: of the vibe is going to look in next year's draft.

2039
01:44:07,160 --> 01:44:09,160
Speaker 5: Who's at the top of the draft, what do they need,

2040
01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:12,400
Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera. And another thing that I really

2041
01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:14,160
Speaker 5: struggle to wrap my head around when it comes to

2042
01:44:14,760 --> 01:44:18,880
Speaker 5: drafting guys next year before we've even gotten through this draft,

2043
01:44:20,160 --> 01:44:23,640
Speaker 5: the NFL stands for not for long. If your strategy is, oh,

2044
01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:26,240
Speaker 5: I'll be around next year to draft Kayleb Williams, what

2045
01:44:26,280 --> 01:44:29,120
Speaker 5: if you're not. What if you have a two and fourteen,

2046
01:44:29,320 --> 01:44:31,760
Speaker 5: two and fifteen year and you're fired and you're not

2047
01:44:31,800 --> 01:44:34,800
Speaker 5: even there to draft Kayleb Williams. So I understand why

2048
01:44:34,880 --> 01:44:38,880
Speaker 5: teams are not as long term. With the top of

2049
01:44:38,920 --> 01:44:42,679
Speaker 5: the draft. We're drafting in the top of this year's

2050
01:44:42,720 --> 01:44:45,280
Speaker 5: selection process. We need to get a guy that can

2051
01:44:45,320 --> 01:44:47,680
Speaker 5: help us win right now because I might not be

2052
01:44:47,760 --> 01:44:49,040
Speaker 5: around to draft next year.

2053
01:44:49,200 --> 01:44:50,280
Speaker 1: So who cares if Kayleb.

2054
01:44:50,320 --> 01:44:53,400
Speaker 5: Williams is coming, Because if I'm not picking, then I

2055
01:44:53,400 --> 01:44:54,960
Speaker 5: don't really care who's at the top of the draft.

2056
01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:59,599
Speaker 5: So I understand why the short term strategy is prevalent.

2057
01:44:59,640 --> 01:45:00,240
Speaker 1: With a lot out.

2058
01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:03,439
Speaker 5: Of these teams, they need to win right now because

2059
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:05,720
Speaker 5: that's the kind of league that they're in. That's the

2060
01:45:05,800 --> 01:45:09,040
Speaker 5: kind of job security that they have, which is basically none.

2061
01:45:09,479 --> 01:45:13,240
Speaker 5: Maybe Nick Cassario and Demigo Ryans have a little bit

2062
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:16,880
Speaker 5: more runway, but for the most part, you gotta win

2063
01:45:17,000 --> 01:45:18,960
Speaker 5: right now in the NFL or you might not be

2064
01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:19,800
Speaker 5: around next year to.

2065
01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:20,160
Speaker 1: Make a pick.

2066
01:45:20,600 --> 01:45:22,280
Speaker 3: I get it, But that's what I think with the

2067
01:45:22,320 --> 01:45:24,799
Speaker 3: Houston Texans is getting CJ.

2068
01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:25,439
Speaker 2: Stroud.

2069
01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:29,599
Speaker 3: They very easily could have a top two pick next year.

2070
01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:33,320
Speaker 3: So they really could and they'd be sitting there like, hmm,

2071
01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:37,400
Speaker 3: we could make a run if we had that pick anymore,

2072
01:45:37,400 --> 01:45:40,120
Speaker 3: which they don't because of the will Anderson junior trade.

2073
01:45:40,439 --> 01:45:43,759
Speaker 3: If they had that pick, they might think, hmm, maybe

2074
01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:47,200
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams or Trake May We'd rather have either of

2075
01:45:47,240 --> 01:45:48,600
Speaker 3: those guys than c J.

2076
01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:49,040
Speaker 2: Stroud.

2077
01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:51,679
Speaker 3: They very well could be thinking that next year.

2078
01:45:51,880 --> 01:45:52,519
Speaker 2: To your point.

2079
01:45:52,680 --> 01:45:55,719
Speaker 4: To your point, and this proves your point is look

2080
01:45:55,720 --> 01:45:59,040
Speaker 4: at the Chicago Bears. How many people thought that they

2081
01:45:59,160 --> 01:46:01,880
Speaker 4: might trade away Justin Fields and go back into the

2082
01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:05,120
Speaker 4: draft four Stroud or Bryce Young this year before trading

2083
01:46:05,160 --> 01:46:07,200
Speaker 4: their pick to the Carolina Panthers.

2084
01:46:07,200 --> 01:46:08,240
Speaker 2: So your point is.

2085
01:46:08,160 --> 01:46:11,360
Speaker 4: Well heard, man, I mean it is a win now league.

2086
01:46:11,360 --> 01:46:16,080
Speaker 4: To Jared's point two, it's we're in strange times because

2087
01:46:16,120 --> 01:46:21,000
Speaker 4: the instant gratification that these general managers in their front

2088
01:46:21,040 --> 01:46:24,240
Speaker 4: offices need to strike with their franchise and their fan base.

2089
01:46:24,520 --> 01:46:25,679
Speaker 4: I mean that's a real thing.

2090
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:29,400
Speaker 3: No, it absolutely is someone else who is also a

2091
01:46:29,439 --> 01:46:29,920
Speaker 3: real thing.

2092
01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:32,519
Speaker 2: I love the segue.

2093
01:46:33,280 --> 01:46:36,160
Speaker 5: This is my favorite part of every show.

2094
01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:40,639
Speaker 3: Like Buffer, He's a real thing, He's a real human.

2095
01:46:41,200 --> 01:46:44,679
Speaker 3: He is a real breath of fresh air. I would

2096
01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:47,320
Speaker 3: say that would be one Isaac Lowen Cron what's going on?

2097
01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:49,880
Speaker 8: Actually, I hate to break it to you, but I'm

2110
01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:35,040
Speaker 8: while I give you the background. So we start by

2111
01:47:35,080 --> 01:47:37,599
Speaker 8: going back for the context. Game two of the NBA

2112
01:47:37,720 --> 01:47:42,160
Speaker 8: Playoffs Memphis is Dylan Brooks talking about the Lakers Lebron James.

2113
01:47:42,439 --> 01:47:48,200
Speaker 9: I don't care he's old. I pulled Bears. I don't

2114
01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:51,240
Speaker 9: respect no one until they come and give me forty.

2115
01:47:51,640 --> 01:47:55,080
Speaker 8: Well in Game six on Friday night, they did give

2116
01:47:55,160 --> 01:47:58,599
Speaker 8: him forty as Lebron and the Lakers defeated Memphis five

2117
01:47:58,640 --> 01:48:04,960
Speaker 8: forty points eighty five, eliminating the Grizzlies four games to two. Now,

2118
01:48:05,200 --> 01:48:08,200
Speaker 8: to get people out there, sort of a lay of

2119
01:48:08,240 --> 01:48:12,599

Speaker 8: To One final note about the Dylan Brooks look or

2199
01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:22,200
Speaker 8: lack thereof the dark glasses at night only Jack Nicholson

2200
01:52:22,360 --> 01:52:24,679
Speaker 8: is allowed to do the dark glasses at night because

2201
01:52:24,720 --> 01:52:28,439
Speaker 8: his own exactly, he wears the dark glasses because his

2202
01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:31,599
Speaker 8: own luster gets in his eyes. So Jack Nicholson, it's okay.

2203
01:52:31,680 --> 01:52:33,000
Speaker 8: Dylan Brooks not so much.

2204
01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:33,680
Speaker 2: You know, I.

2205
01:52:35,640 --> 01:52:38,759
Speaker 3: Really was not as big of a defense when people

2206
01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:40,439
Speaker 3: put super Bowl as one word.

2207
01:52:40,840 --> 01:52:42,320
Speaker 2: That's the greatest deference right there.

2208

2212
01:52:52,400 --> 01:52:55,599
Speaker 3: is one word. I think it's just when it's an adjective, right,

2213
01:52:55,680 --> 01:52:58,080
Speaker 3: Like when it's like my everyday routine, that would be

2214
01:52:58,120 --> 01:53:01,360
Speaker 3: one word, but lakes all day every day.

2215

2216

2217
01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:06,639
Speaker 2: Yeah?

2218
01:53:06,680 --> 01:53:08,760
Speaker 3: Maybe this every day buckets, that would be one word,

2219
01:53:08,880 --> 01:53:10,200
Speaker 3: every day buckets one word.

2220
01:53:10,320 --> 01:53:13,240
Speaker 4: This is a pronoun So maybe maybe he just makes

2221
01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:13,960
Speaker 4: his own rules.

2222
01:53:14,200 --> 01:53:17,240

2287
01:56:47,440 --> 01:56:50,200
Speaker 3: or Kings. I'm putting words into his mouth, but he likes.

2288
01:56:50,320 --> 01:56:52,360

01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 3: the second.

2293
01:57:00,400 --> 01:57:01,640
Speaker 1: A gentleman's sweep.

2294
01:57:02,120 --> 01:57:03,600
Speaker 2: Well, I added that he didn't.

2295
01:57:03,600 --> 01:57:07,960
Speaker 5: Okay, I mean, yeah, you have Lebron James and Anthony Davis.

2296
01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:11,360
Speaker 5: Anything's possible. But I think those if those.

2297
01:57:11,240 --> 01:57:15,080
Speaker 1: Kings can find a way like the Beam tomorrow.

2298
01:57:16,400 --> 01:57:18,760
Speaker 3: You know what's crazy is I think the Kings are

2299
01:57:18,800 --> 01:57:25,120
Speaker 3: a worst matchup to a fast quick you know, going

2300
01:57:25,320 --> 01:57:26,839
Speaker 3: one hundred miles per hours.

2301
01:57:26,880 --> 01:57:28,360
Speaker 1: But the line will be in that series, what the

2302
01:57:28,400 --> 01:57:29,440
Speaker 1: serious price will be.

2303
01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:31,960
Speaker 3: It's fascinating if it is Lakers Kings.

2304
01:57:32,600 --> 01:57:36,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the Lakers will be slight favorite. Yeah,

2305
01:57:36,640 --> 01:57:39,880
Speaker 1: Warriors are favored as not having home court by a

2306
01:57:39,920 --> 01:57:42,600
Speaker 1: big margin. Against the Kings. It was like minus two fifty.

2307
01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:45,520
Speaker 1: They were favored in the series. Wow, yeahah, and.

2308
01:57:45,480 --> 01:57:47,080
Speaker 3: I don't I don't love those odds anymore.

2309
01:57:48,120 --> 01:57:51,080
Speaker 2: You can't wait for three seven? All right? So one

2310
01:57:51,080 --> 01:57:52,920
Speaker 2: word or two words, whatever your preference is.

2311
01:57:53,000 --> 01:57:58,040
Speaker 3: Round table gambling talk. Yeah, we'll start with you, Jared Smith.

2312
01:57:58,080 --> 01:57:58,800
Speaker 3: What are you thinking for?

2313
01:57:59,480 --> 01:57:59,960
Speaker 1: How about this?

2314
01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:03,000
Speaker 5: There is a baseball game being played in Mexico City

2315
01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:05,040
Speaker 5: today between the Padres and the Giants.

2316
01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,200
Speaker 1: The total is fifteen and a half.

2317
01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:12,400
Speaker 5: Oh man, I mean you gotta bet the over right

2318
01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:15,800
Speaker 5: tee it up high and let it fly in Mexico City.

2319
01:58:15,880 --> 01:58:17,720
Speaker 1: Remember when they played in London, the Red Sox and

2320
01:58:17,760 --> 01:58:18,200
Speaker 1: the Yankees.

2321
01:58:18,240 --> 01:58:20,640
Speaker 5: The totals were in the teams they were scoring thirty

2322
01:58:20,720 --> 01:58:22,920
Speaker 5: runs in the game. So I mean, listen, you're not

2323
01:58:22,920 --> 01:58:24,600
Speaker 5: gonna get rich bet in the total of fifteen and

2324
01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:26,680
Speaker 5: a half. But I would bet the over between the

2325
01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:29,240
Speaker 5: Padres and the Giants today because something's brewing down there

2326
01:58:29,400 --> 01:58:30,400
Speaker 5: in Mexico City.

2327
01:58:30,520 --> 01:58:33,120
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna take the Nikola Jokic over assist props.

2328
01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:33,600
Speaker 1: How about this?

2329
01:58:34,040 --> 01:58:36,120
Speaker 5: He was thirty seven and a half minutes per game

2330
01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:39,680
Speaker 5: in the playoffs at home when he plays thirty eight

2331
01:58:39,720 --> 01:58:43,280
Speaker 5: minutes or more. This assist prop has hit every single

2332
01:58:43,320 --> 01:58:45,280
Speaker 5: time to the over seven out of seven this year.

2333
01:58:45,600 --> 01:58:49,240
Speaker 5: Volume and dimes for Nicola today against the Suns over

2334
01:58:49,480 --> 01:58:50,360
Speaker 5: nine and a half says.

2335
01:58:51,320 --> 01:58:55,440
Speaker 4: Okay, wow, I love it a lot, especially that Padres

2336
01:58:55,480 --> 01:59:01,240
Speaker 4: Giants line because also remember you're at altitude in Mexico City, flies, Yep,

2337
01:59:01,400 --> 01:59:06,560
Speaker 4: at altitude. Okay, I'm just gonna make this simple Kings

2338
01:59:06,800 --> 01:59:07,520
Speaker 4: money line.

2339
01:59:07,600 --> 01:59:11,800
Speaker 2: Book it. I just I think this is a hungry team.

2340
01:59:12,240 --> 01:59:14,520
Speaker 4: I think that they've hung around in this series and

2341
01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:17,360
Speaker 4: done everything that they were supposed to do. Get it

2342
01:59:17,400 --> 01:59:20,840
Speaker 4: to a Game seven at home in Sacramento. I mean,

2343
01:59:20,880 --> 01:59:23,400
Speaker 4: this line is narrow thin. So if you like the

2344
01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:26,800
Speaker 4: Kings yet Kings, you like them to win. I like

2345
01:59:26,880 --> 01:59:29,000
Speaker 4: the Kings to face the Lakers in the second round.

2346
01:59:29,920 --> 01:59:30,160
Speaker 2: Yep.

2347
01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:34,640
Speaker 3: Like the Beam game one tonight, Nuggets hosting the Suns.

2348
01:59:35,520 --> 01:59:37,520
Speaker 3: Interested in this series. I'm gonna be a little bit

2349
01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:40,520
Speaker 3: dangerous over here. A little dangerous because Devin Booker was

2350
01:59:40,560 --> 01:59:44,120
Speaker 3: tremendous in many games against the Clippers. I'm gonna take

2351
01:59:44,120 --> 01:59:48,160
Speaker 3: his point total under thirty and a half today. I

2352
01:59:48,240 --> 01:59:51,160
Speaker 3: know he's been cooking. It's dangerous, but he's gonna be

2353
01:59:51,200 --> 01:59:54,480
Speaker 3: a key for that Nuggets defense. They're gonna they might

2354
01:59:54,520 --> 01:59:56,680
Speaker 3: double him and force other guys to beat him. So

2355
01:59:56,680 --> 01:59:58,880
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take the under on d Book thirty and

2356
01:59:58,880 --> 02:00:02,120
Speaker 3: a half fair. If it's wrong, just forget I even

2357
02:00:02,160 --> 02:00:02,480
Speaker 3: said that.

2358
02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:04,240
Speaker 2: You know, everybody, have a great day. We'll see you.
