1 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 1: And we welcome you into the best podcast available presented 2 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 1: by Key Private Bank. Key Private Bank is at the 3 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: forefront of helping affluent families take a comprehensive approach to building, managing, 4 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: and protecting their wealth in any environment through objective advice 5 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: and personalized solutions. On Jason Gibbs alongside Andrew Gribble. We 6 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: are eight weeks away from the NFL Draft, and in 7 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: less than two weeks from right now, free agency in 8 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: the NFL will be underway. What it looks like, no 9 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: idea what the salary cap will ultimately be zero clue Gribbs. 10 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: A lot to be determined here, not just in the 11 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: next eight weeks leading up to the draft, but in 12 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: the next two weeks leading up to free agency as well. Yeah, 13 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: and I think we we both probably saw what what 14 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: Diana Russini put out there earlier today about one coaches 15 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: take on what's going to happen in the next couple 16 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: of weeks, and that the salary cap and the crunch 17 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: that it's gonna cause could be tough for veterans around 18 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: the league. So there there could be a lot more 19 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: names out there in the coming days that we'll be 20 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: discussing that could impact the roster decisions of this team 21 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: and teams are around the league. I think I think 22 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: the number on the salary cap is maybe a little 23 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: bit more optimistic than people thought it could be a 24 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: few months ago, so a little bit more wiggle room, 25 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: and the Browns are really well positioned compared to most teams. 26 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it may it may not be that way 27 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: in a few years from now when you start locking 28 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: these guys up on extensions, but right now your window 29 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,199 Speaker 1: is pretty good to navigate this kind of situation where 30 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: you really don't expect the salary cap to ever go down, 31 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: and it's going down pretty significantly, we think, but maybe 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: not as much as we thought a few months ago. 33 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see coming up on the program 34 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: today from the Draft Network analyst, former QB, former coach, 35 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: former recruiting coordinator Jordan Reid, who has been on the 36 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: program before we'll join us. Uh, some very interesting takes, 37 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: especially on that defensive line, that edge rusher position, and 38 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: of course at corner. Looking forward to hearing from him 39 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: and then Uh, Gribble's gone through a number of mock 40 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: drafts on Cleveland Browns dot com and we'll get his 41 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 1: thoughts and takeaways on that as well. First and foremost, 42 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: as we get into this week's podcast, Kevin Stefanski talked, 43 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: Andrew Berry, our general manager, talked. Both guys talked this week. 44 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: Normally we'd be in Indianapolis, whether it was last week 45 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 1: this week. I thought it was last week, but nonetheless, 46 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: normally they talked at the NFL combine. There is no 47 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: NFL combine. Gribbs, your three biggest takeaways from these past 48 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: two days involving our hierarchy on this football team. I 49 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: would say one is that these kind of press conferences 50 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: are a lot different when you have the kind of 51 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: season that the Browns just had. I think that you're 52 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: picking twenty six, Uh, you don't have an exorbitant amount 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: of free agent cap space or anything like that. You're 54 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: not really trying, you don't have a glaring, huge holes 55 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: to fill, and you're not trying to get a new quarterback. 56 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: And so that makes these kind of media sessions, which 57 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: typically are big on news or have been for the 58 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: Browns in recent years, that these are just kind of checkens. 59 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: I would describe them as that. I would say both 60 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: of these were kind of check ins with both Andrew 61 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Berry and Kevin Stefanski, who answered a lot of questions 62 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: but you know, didn't make a lot of news. And 63 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: I think that that's that's life as a winning team, 64 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: uh In a life as a winning team that doesn't 65 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: go through a lot of change in the off season. 66 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: And for the Browns, I mean that will change here 67 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: in the next month when you have some new players 68 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: via free agency, players leaving, things like that. But when 69 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: you don't have outside of an offensive quality control coach, 70 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: when you don't have any changes to your organization, he's 71 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: the kind of press conference he's you end up getting, 72 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: which are just a lot of hypotheticals and a lot 73 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,119 Speaker 1: of non answers to these hypotheticals because these guys don't 74 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: go into hypotheticals. So I mean, it's just tough to 75 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: glean a ton of information, but it more reinforces you 76 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 1: got the right guys in charge, and they've got this 77 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: thing going in the right direction and are just trying 78 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: to fill a little holes and make this team be 79 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: even better than it was last year. Unflappable, Kevin Stefanski 80 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: took thirty questions, didn't mattan eye yesterday? Andrew Barry was 81 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: right up there with him on Wednesday, and you know, 82 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: gave gave a little bit more. Especially I thought there 83 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: was some interesting you know, based on free agents and 84 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: if it's the right scheme, not the right scheme. I 85 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: thought he had some some interesting points there. Um, I 86 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: love joint practices, and I know Kevin Stefanski mentioned if 87 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: if they could do it this year, he would love 88 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: to do it. Uh. Sounds like are are three players 89 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: that are are dinged up, probably the worst out of everybody, 90 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: Grant Delpit, Greedy, oh, b J. Everything seems to be 91 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: on track in terms of their recovery, although you know, 92 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: a lot to determine between now and you know, when 93 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,119 Speaker 1: we report for training camp at the end of July. 94 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: But you know, he did single out Kevin Stefanski yesterday. 95 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: Grant Delpit said he looked great when he saw him yesterday. 96 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: So that is a big positive and a guy that 97 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: we're counting on. And Uh. The other the other note 98 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: I made was, you know, because they don't really answer 99 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: questions about players, we want everybody to be better. But 100 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: Jacob Phillips got a nice little plug yesterday from Kevin 101 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: Stefanski as well. And it's a guy that is going 102 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: to be counted on by this football team. Yeah, and 103 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: and gives just going back to my earlier point, all 104 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: the news items you just mentioned, those are like notebooks. 105 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: Those aren't really like headlines. I mean, these are just 106 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: like little tidbits here and there, nuggets that you know, 107 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: maybe they'll make the pro football talk, you know, but 108 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: that that the bar is pretty low there. They'll they'll 109 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: aggregate anything, but you know, I mean, I think that 110 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's just it's one of those things where 111 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: these are a lot of news and notes type of things, 112 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: but there's just not a lot of big issues hanging 113 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: over the team right now. It's it's more about how 114 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: do you do what you did last year, but do 115 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: it even better? And I think that goes into my 116 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: second takeaway where it's like you don't hear much about 117 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: last year from these guys, and I think that that 118 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: the page has been officially turned. Uh and and and 119 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: it's really just about how do you make a good 120 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: team better? And I think that's a that's that's a discussion. 121 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: We haven't been able to have much with this with 122 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: this franchise. And I think that it's a it's an 123 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: area to be and it's why when you see what 124 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: happens in free agency in the coming months, you may 125 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 1: not see the splash signings that maybe we've we've had 126 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: in previous years. You don't get the big draft pick. 127 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: Number twenty six doesn't usually generate a ton of headlines 128 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: unless it's Stortan Love, which was last year a number 129 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: twenty six. But you know it just you're you're filling 130 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: gaps and you're filling places where you have good scheme 131 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: fits and guys that work within your system, not just 132 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: the biggest names out there. And I think that's that's 133 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: the focus right now with with this coaching staff in 134 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: front office. And your third takeaway, I mean, I guess 135 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: I'll go with the Richard Higgins mentioned in the in 136 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: Andrew Berry's press conference and that that was that was 137 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: as revealing as it gets where he said, I think 138 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: suffice to say we we'd like to have Richard back. 139 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: But I think then he goes into the fact that 140 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: Rochard had a really good season last year, and that's 141 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: going to generate interests from other teams, and I think 142 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: that you might be competing for for his services. And 143 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: then ultimately it comes down to where where the you 144 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: follow the money or where the wherever Chard ultimately controls 145 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: that decision if it reaches March seventeenth at four pm. 146 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: So that was I guess revealing. You heard Kevin Spansky 147 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: say he'd love to have a lot of these guys back, 148 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: and I think even though we've had like no movement 149 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: on this so far, I would not read into that 150 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: at this point. I think these teams are waiting for 151 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: this cap to be finalized and then you go in 152 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: and maybe start resigning some of these guys. The Brons 153 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of free agents. I mean they've got 154 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: uh I think it's about eighteen or nineteen or something, 155 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: and half of half half of your defensive starters last year, 156 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: every game starters are gonna be free agent, so that 157 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: it wouldn't surprise me if we start to see some 158 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: movement on that front. But again, if we're to believe 159 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 1: what some are predicting, I mean, there's just gonna be 160 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: this surplus of names on the market that you maybe 161 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: didn't expect, and that will ultimately maybe change the calculus 162 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: inside the building right now, yea, and that could be 163 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: the delay, not just here in Brea, but with all 164 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: thirty two teams. Everybody's looking to see who's going to 165 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: get cut and maybe you can sign them for the 166 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: one year prove a deal or the one year deal 167 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: to bridge things until hopefully the salary cap goes back up. 168 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: I think everybody's in a watch and wait mode across 169 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: the NFL. Yeah, I mean it usually you see some 170 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: more action right now, and maybe, uh maybe there are 171 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: just hasn't been enough eyes to resigned to long term 172 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: extensions that you typically have at this time. But we 173 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 1: have had those quarterback trains. I think that filled the 174 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: void for a little bit. But you just aren't seeing 175 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,719 Speaker 1: the numbers. I mean, you're those guys are inheriting contracts 176 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: that they that they've had. You're you're just not seeing 177 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: these extensions or resignings. I think we did have on 178 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: on Wednesday Tyrrelle Williams, the wide receiver he's signing with 179 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: the Lions. He had the J. J. Watt signing with 180 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. But really not a lot to not going on. 181 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: But I would expect next week it starts to pick 182 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: up before it really dovetails into the free agency week 183 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: on March fifteenth, where you can start the legal tampering 184 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: YEA next week on the BP a will will kind 185 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: of put the draft talk to bed for a week 186 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: and really focus in on the free agent market less 187 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: than a week out from one free agency and free 188 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 1: agency madness getting going. We'll talk more about mock drafts 189 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: and and we'll talk about mel Kiper's comments on his 190 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: call with the media.

Sure, kind of looks like it might 211 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: end up being there. Jordan Read joins us here, compliments 212 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: our friends at Key Private Bank, and Jordan's always a 213 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: pleasure to have you another year unlike any other. Uh 214 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: as we start this, you know, last year we at 215 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: least have the Combine. This year we have the Senior Bowl, 216 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: and that is it outside of some pro days obviously, 217 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: But your thoughts as you get ready for this draft 218 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: big picture wise and trying to prep for it without 219 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: a combine here in one well, first and for most, 220 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: Jason Andrews a pleasure being here. This is something that 221 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: I look forward to every year. So when Jason Simmond 222 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: texts last week because I missed it, I've seen it 223 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: like two hours later, I was like, man, I'm mad 224 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: I missed it. So I was one of appologize to 225 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: you about that, just because I look forward to doing 226 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: this every year. But yeah, it's definitely different as far 227 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: as We're an uncharted territory with everything that's going on. 228 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: And I think the big difference from compared to last 229 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: year to this year is that I think COVID hed 230 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: around early March of late February and pretty much the 231 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: draft was done as far as draft profiles and resumes 232 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: and get stuff together as far as guys information. But 233 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: this year is completely different just because you weren't allowed 234 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: to take some of those on campus visits, there was 235 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: limited numbers of scouts that could go to actual end 236 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: game visits. Um, we don't have actual combine, which is 237 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: something a lot of teams rely on as far as 238 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: medical situation and the testing numbers on the field drills 239 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: and things of that nature. Everybody's process is different as 240 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: far as across our all thirty two teams, but we know, um, 241 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: this is definitely a chartered territory for a lot of teams, 242 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: So the process is really different for a lot of guys. 243 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: And Jordan's how much of an added wrinkle is it 244 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: to where you're ranking guys and what you think gonna 245 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: happen with all the quarterback movement in the league that's 246 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: going on right now, and and really getting an idea 247 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: of what teams actually might even need a quarterback by 248 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: by the end of April. And that's the hardest thing 249 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: to predict as far as the draft perspective, just because 250 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: we know teams are gonna move up, they're gonna trade 251 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: back depending on which teams won a quarterback the wins 252 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: teams are trying to stop pip draft capital for the 253 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: most part. In I think with the quarterbacks, I think 254 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: it's really hard to predict this year just because there's 255 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 1: so many at the top, and we haven't seen quarterbacks 256 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: go back to back to back since I believe it 257 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: was where it was a Keeli Smith, Tim Couch and 258 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: um Donovan McNabb. So I think we could be faced 259 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: with a similar situation this year with Trevor Lawrence, Fields, 260 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: and Zach Wilson. Those are considered like the top three 261 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: guys right now. But after that you have Zach or 262 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: excuse me, you have Trey Lanson and also Mac Jones 263 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: as well, So potential five quarterbacks going in the first round. 264 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: But we know what quarterback movement it's really unpredictable. We've 265 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: seen guys like Matthew Stafford already be traded Jared Goff 266 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: that trade was one of those ones where you had 267 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: to check the blue jeck mark for Adam Schefter to 268 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: see if it was actually real when the transaction came through. 269 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 1: And then there's other guys just starting to see Russell 270 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 1: Wilson come out with some some unpleasant things that he's 271 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: coming out with right now. That's a good article about 272 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: that last week. So when I'm sure he won't be 273 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: the last better quarterback, Alex Smith is another one. Any 274 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 1: Rapport just came out and said about that. So the 275 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: quarterback movement is really unpredictable, not only from the NFL standpoint, 276 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: but also the draft as well. I want to circle 277 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: back to the guys that are coming out in this 278 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: year's draft at the quarterback position in just a few minutes. 279 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: But when putting together all of this and doing your 280 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: research and doing your homework, how tough is it when 281 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: you've got players that have maybe played three games, in 282 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: five games, six games, maybe they played ten or twelve 283 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: depending on what conference they were in uh or or 284 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: ended up opting out. How difficult is it going back 285 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: almost two years maybe with some of these guys to 286 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: see tape as you try to put together and figure 287 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: out who's gonna go where. Well, that's a really good question, 288 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: and I think there's different tiers to it, honestly, just 289 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: because we know guys like Vane Soul, Jamaar Chase, and 290 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: some of the other early opt outs. Cable Farley is 291 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: another one. I don't think those guys need to put 292 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: anything else on tape. We know exactly what there are, 293 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: what they are through their sophomore seasons. I don't think 294 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: if they would have came back and played, they wouldn't 295 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 1: have hurt their stock negatively. But you see some second 296 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: and third tier guys that are opting out, whether that's 297 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: advice from people in their ears or potential agents or 298 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: whatever it was. So I think the hardest part is 299 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: just is this the best that you saw of that 300 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: guy as far as their development or or where they 301 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: continue continuously going to get better. So I think that's 302 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: the hard part about the evaluation process, just because there's 303 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: some guys you have not seen since the nineteen season, 304 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: but they didn't play well at the end of that 305 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen season, So is there room for them to 306 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: grow or have they kind of plateau with their development? 307 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: So I think that's the hardest part about the evaluation 308 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: just because you're starting to forget about some guys just 309 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: because you haven't seen them since that twenty nineteen season, 310 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: so you have to go back and check tape. But 311 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: for example, like a guy like Zach Wilson, imagine that 312 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson would have opted out prior to this year 313 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: and he wouldn't have had the monsters year that he 314 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: had last season, So there was obviously continuous room for 315 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: growth for him, but we would have never seen that 316 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: but for a guy like Trade Lance, for example, from 317 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: North Dakota State. He only played that one game, the 318 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: showcase game against Central Arkansas, which he played. Okay, I 319 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: don't think it should move the needle in any direction 320 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: for him, but you're talking about a rich sophomore that 321 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: has only played in seventeen career games. And just to 322 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: share a stat with you, guys, so since the year 323 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: two thousand, when we're talking about quarterbacks, there's only been 324 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: five of the guys that have started seventeen or less 325 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: career games that have went on to be first round picks. 326 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: And it's been Mark Sanchez, Cam Newton, Liter, Robiskie, Kyler Murray, 327 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: and Dwayne Askin. So obviously a mixed back of guys. 328 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: So if you're talking about a guy like a trade lance, 329 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: you don't really know what you're gonna get for him, 330 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a huge risk no matter which 331 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: way you feel about him. I'll ask you as a 332 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: guy that's played. And this may be hard to project 333 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: and be individualized, but how hard is it going to 334 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: be for some of these guys who opted out or 335 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: didn't even have an opportunity to play last year? How 336 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: hard is it for them to be able to just 337 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: go from doing that too then getting into the NFL 338 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: right away? And do you think that some teams, maybe 339 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 1: beyond those leaders at the top of the draft, may 340 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: use it as a tiebreaker, being like I'll go with 341 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: the guy that that's played some football last year as 342 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: opposed to someone who may be opted up. Oh yeah, 343 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: for sure. And I mean, you guys know, just speaking 344 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: from as a formal quarterback, it's all about reps repetition, 345 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: and Baker Mayfield is a great example. He's been a 346 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: ton of systems during his career, but you saw the 347 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: continuous amount of reps that he had his Stefanski system. 348 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: He continuously got better. And there's gonna be some rough 349 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: patches here and there. That's just how it goes with 350 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: quarterback development. But like I said, with guys like Piney Soul, 351 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase, I think you're a little bit more easier 352 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 1: on them just because of the talent. But some of 353 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: these second and third tier guys, you definitely use it 354 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: as a type brecord just because you don't know how 355 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: that next step of their development is going to go. 356 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: And usually with players, especially younger guys, the more reps 357 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: that they gain, the better that they get, just because 358 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 1: with football saw psychological, all mental un Once that game 359 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: starts to slow down for them, that's when things started 360 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: to click for them. But that only comes with reps, 361 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: and experience is the best teacher with football. There's nothing 362 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: else that they can gain, uh, just because experience and 363 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: in game reps is the only way that the game 364 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: is going to slow down for them. You can go 365 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: over plenty of plays in the playbook, you can get 366 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 1: on the white board or however these coaches are teaching them, 367 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: but the only way that they're going to get better 368 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: and learn the playbook and just learn the speed of 369 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: the game is to actually be in it. Talking with 370 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: Jordan Read, draft analysts for the Draft Network, former quarterback, 371 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: former coach, and former recruiting coordination done it all here 372 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 1: and in is his early and very blossoming media career. 373 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: Now here as he transitions into the Draft Network and 374 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: taking a look at the Browns needs. What the biggest 375 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: positions of need seemed to be on the defensive side 376 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: of the football. A lot of guys back on the 377 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: offensive side, but defensively, what positions do you see of 378 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: strength in this year's draft? Uh? I think cornerback is 379 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: a really strong position in my opinion. And you hear 380 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: about the guys at the top, J C. Horne, Caleb Farley, 381 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: Patrick's to Chain, but there's some second and third tier 382 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: guys that I think the world are right now. Greg 383 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: News from the second from Northwestern, Tyson Campbell from Georgia 384 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: and then also Eric Stokes from Georgia as well, and 385 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: Kelvin Joseph from Kentucky is another one. They're starting to 386 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: gain some steam in the corner I think that could 387 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: be a huge need for the Browns, just because Greedy 388 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 1: Williams has not been able to stay healthy. Denzel Ward 389 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: has shown some flashes, but injuries has really been a 390 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: problem for him. A little bit throughout his career with 391 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: him being a smaller corner and I think he's a 392 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: really good player, but injuries is something that's starting to 393 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: mount up a little bit for him. And that's not 394 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: to say he's not in the long term future for them. 395 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: I think he's a really good player. He definitely is 396 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: in their plans, but he's been nicked up quite a 397 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 1: bit throughout his career. And then they have quite a 398 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: few free agents out on the perimeter at cornerback as well, 399 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: so we could see the situation of where they addressed 400 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: the secondary, whether it's safety or corner early on. That 401 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: would not surprise me at all. And I'll ask you 402 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: about a guy you projected recently to the Browns and 403 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: and that's Davin Collins, the Tulsa linebacker. What about him 404 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: makes you think that the Browns could buck the trend 405 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: slash reputation they have where they might or people just 406 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: don't think they will take a lineback in the first round. Well, 407 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 1: so there's two guys I think maybe could buck the 408 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: trend with the Browns. And I know every time my 409 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: market line back into the Browns, everybody was like, oh no, 410 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: we don't take lineback, because really they just don't value it. 411 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: But I think both of them are worthy. And that's 412 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 1: Jeremiah Whossel Carmoa and then also Zavin Collins. And I'll 413 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: just start with Davin at first. Um versatility, that's the 414 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 1: first thing that really stands out about him, and then 415 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: his size at six ft four two and sixty pounds, 416 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: he kind of reminds you just to paint a picture 417 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: of him of Anthony Barr. That's the player that he 418 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: really reminds me of as far as he can rush 419 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: off of the edge, he holds up really will and coverage, 420 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: and then he's a physical player as well. You can 421 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: move him all over the place. I think It's also 422 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: did a really good job of just moving him all 423 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: over the place, just showing off his versatility, and similar 424 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: fashion with the Woussel Carmoa, he's more of your strong 425 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 1: safety outside linebacker type. I think they even could play 426 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: in the box as opposed to him, I think you 427 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: have to keep him on the perimeter. But you're talking 428 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 1: about these versatile chess pieces, and we know that the 429 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: NFL is so past happy right now that you have 430 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: to have these linebackers that not only can play the 431 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: first two downs, but also on third down that can 432 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: match up with tight ends and then they shift the 433 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: slide receivers as well. So if there were two guys 434 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: that I think could book the trend, I definitely think 435 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: both of them will be worthy. If both of those 436 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 1: guys are gone at Picky six, maybe even into the 437 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: second round. There are there some names of those at 438 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: that linebacker position. You know, last year there weren't a 439 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: lot of linebackers, you know, the linebacker class. If you 440 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: didn't get one of the top three or four, there 441 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: was a pretty significant drop off at least in the 442 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: ratings of those guys. Is that a similar situation to 443 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: share a linebacker? So this linebacker class is kinda I 444 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: would call it unique. I think it's very similar to 445 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: edge rusher and that there's not that top guy at 446 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: the top. There's not a headline in name. There's not 447 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: a Miles Garrett at the top of edge rusher, and 448 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: then there's not a one that linebacker either, even though 449 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: I think Michael Parks Parson is a really good player, 450 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: but there's some people that don't have him as that 451 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: top guy. Is not like a Miles Garrett. Coming out, 452 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: we knew that he undoubtedly was going to be the 453 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: number one overall pick. But if we're talking about some 454 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: guys that they could get in the second or third round, 455 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: Jabrille Cox from l s U, who was the North 456 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: Dakota State transfer, I think he's a player that they 457 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: will have a lot of interest in. And the thing 458 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: about Jabrill is that a lot of times you see 459 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: players that go from FCS to that big time Division 460 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: One level, which is what he did. You rarely ever 461 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: see a player go from FCS to the SEC and 462 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: still have He didn't. The surroundings didn't look forwign to him, 463 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. He the speed of the game 464 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: wasn't too fast for him, and that just goes to 465 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: show that he has unique versatility, but also he has 466 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: unique athleticism as well. And then another one that I 467 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: think a lot of people are kind of sleeping on 468 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: it right now is Baron Browning from Ohio State. I 469 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: think he's a player that could go a little bit 470 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: higher than what some people are expecting right now. And 471 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: he played really well down at the Senior Bowl. That's 472 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 1: something that I really wanted to see from him. Just 473 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: because Ohio State had a ton of linebackers. I think 474 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: they had three or four that probably have a chance 475 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: at getting drafted right now. But I think he was 476 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: the best of the bunch. And you talked about athleticism 477 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: for days. Just going and watch him against the Game 478 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: and the Senior Bowl, I think he was fantastic. Is 479 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: there an addresser you like it that part of the 480 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: draft that you think can make an impact and potentially 481 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: help the brown still avoid that if if Olidia Vernon's 482 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: not back here next year. Yeah, And even though there's 483 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: not a consensus guy at the top, it's just a 484 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: matter of what type of flavor that you want. A 485 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: Zizo Glari from Georgia is one that I like a lot. 486 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,479 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's going to be available at 487 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: twenty six. There's kind of mixed reviews out there right 488 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: now about him. It wouldn't surprise me if he goes 489 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 1: top twenty. It wouldn't surprise me if he's there at 490 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: twenty either, just because they're so many mixed reviews about him. 491 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: And then another one is Jalen Phillips from from u C. 492 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: L A who transferred to Miami. Here's another one that's 493 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: starting to get a lot of steam here lately, even 494 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: though he has some off the field stuff from when 495 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: he retired at u c l A for a brief stint, 496 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: and then he also had some it flag in his 497 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: background that he has to answer as well. There's plenty 498 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: of other guys to Jason Noway from Penn State, Gregory 499 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: Russo from Miami. I go on and on about some 500 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: of these guys. Just because there's no proven top guy 501 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: at the top, each one is going to have their flaws. 502 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: Just like I said, it's just a matter of which 503 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: flavor and type that you want on the offensive side 504 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: of the football. Um, there is a concern about needing 505 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: to build up some depth on that offensive line and 506 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: also maybe looking at a at a wide receiver, someone 507 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: who can get down the field, you know, a burner 508 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: that can really get behind the defense, stretch him out 509 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 1: a little bit and allow everything to open up underneath 510 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: a little bit more. What do you see when you 511 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 1: look at those two positions this year in the draft 512 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: so similar to last year. I think wide receiver is 513 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: really deep. I think it's even deeper than what we 514 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: saw on Day two and Day three a year ago. 515 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: And you saw these guys come in and contribute immediately 516 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: on Day two. Whether it was a Denzel Mims with 517 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: the Jets or Leavisco Channaut with the Jaguars, And there's 518 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: plenty of others. Te Higgins from Cincinnati, so you guys 519 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: are familiar with You came in and made an immediate 520 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: contribution to them. So when you're talking about Day two 521 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: guys that I think could come in and help the 522 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: Browns immediately, I think Damie Brown from North Carolina is 523 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: one that could come in and help right away. I 524 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: like him a lot. He does have some catch concerns 525 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: that does worry me a little bit, but I think 526 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: he's one that could improve on that. It's not a 527 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: situation where he's just blatantly dropping the ball, is more 528 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: of a looking the ball in before you move up 529 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: the field type of situation. And Terrorice Marshall from l 530 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: s U as another one that I think would be 531 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: a really good fit on the Browns as well. And 532 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: there's plenty of us. Like I said, there's a lot 533 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: of talent. On Day two. I really just looking for 534 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: a burner, those down the field type of players that 535 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: really could have tread the Browns on Day two and 536 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: Day three. I'll go a little with a little bit 537 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: of a big picture of questionnaire. Now that's just what 538 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: what did you take away from Andrew Berry's first draft 539 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: with the Browns and how does that make you think 540 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: the the approach could be for this upcoming year? What? What? 541 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: I know, it's just one draft? What did what did 542 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: you see from that? Now that comply this year? I 543 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: honestly think it was a home run. You rarely see 544 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: a team hit on as many picks as they did, 545 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: and I think he got a lot of great value 546 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: from the late round picks as well. You're talking about 547 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: Harrison Bryant who came in and even though it was 548 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 1: primarily as a blocker, the tight ends have to have 549 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: some type of role early on, and you guys know what, 550 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: David and Joeku, it's kind of like learning two positions 551 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: and one. That's why I think tight end we don't 552 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: rarely see or we rarely see them come in and 553 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: contribute right away just because they're learning how to be 554 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: a blocker, they're learning how to be a pass catcher 555 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: as well, and that can be really difficult for players 556 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: early on. So I think Harrison Bryant was really good value. 557 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: Donovan People's Jones who came in and played really well 558 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: as well in spots, and then Jordan Elliott came in 559 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: and filled in really well. I think Grant Delfit is 560 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: gonna end up being a good player. We'll see how 561 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: he returns from the Achilles. But I mean, there's no 562 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 1: secret that Jendrick Wills was the best of the bunch 563 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 1: with how well he played at his left tacole spot. 564 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: So you're starting to see the value stack up. And 565 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: for Barry to go out have never been a GM 566 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: in his entire career before and draft as well as 567 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 1: he did. I mean, the skies that for him, and 568 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: I know you guys are really intrigued. Even though it's 569 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: not as early of a pick as you guys are 570 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 1: used to in the building, I still think they have 571 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: a chance to have a really good draft, considering how 572 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: well he drafted a year ago and then just last one. 573 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: I mean, do you get a sense that teams are 574 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 1: looking would maybe potentially move on from some picks and 575 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: try to stockpile more picks for next year just because 576 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: it might be a more normal college football season, or 577 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: do do you think that it'll just be business as 578 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,959 Speaker 1: usually even with this weird season. I think it's kind 579 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: of toothfold, honestly, Andrew, just because I think some teams 580 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: are kind of just want to hit doubles. You know 581 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: what I mean by that is players that you know 582 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: are gonna be safe bits in the league. And I 583 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: know there's no guys that are gonna be safe bets. 584 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: But as far as the Browns are really analytically based, 585 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: so they're gonna say guys that are that fear really 586 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: will in the system that check all the boxes and 587 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: whatever the algorithms are, and they're not gonna take a 588 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 1: bunch of chances on maybe guys that had injury red 589 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: flags that don't pass the character backgrounds or things of 590 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 1: that nature. So I think they're gonna stay very close 591 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: to the vest as far as players that they can 592 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: just hit doubles with, as far as risking maybe once 593 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: they could potentially hit home runs with it. That makes sense, 594 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: all right. Jordan's before we let you go, because we 595 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: ask everybody every week that we have on the podcast, 596 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: how many quarterbacks go on the top fIF team, because ultimately, 597 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: the more quarterbacks that go push us that talent pool 598 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: back to us a little bit at twenty six. So 599 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: we're rooting for as many quarterbacks as possible to go 600 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: in that top fifteen. How many quarterbacks do you think? 601 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: And I know you just uh in your podcast that 602 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: just came out, the Read Option podcast. I know you 603 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: talk extensively about quarterbacks. You break down every guy and 604 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: it's a great podcast leading up to the Draft. I 605 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: would recommend everybody get on board with that. Check it out. 606 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: You can follow him by the way at Jordan Underscore read. 607 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: How many qbs go on the top fifteen. Honestly think 608 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: five go on the top fifteen, as crazy as that 609 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 1: is to say, I think the Patriots are gonna take 610 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: one whoever's left of the five fifteen if they don't 611 00:28:58,280 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: end up trading up, and I think it's gonna be 612 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 1: Mac Jones. If I had to predict to date, I 613 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: think five quarterbacks going to top fIF team. We're a 614 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: big fan of that. The more the merrier because we 615 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 1: don't actually have to deal with that, and it's been 616 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: a long time since that's been the case. Absolutely, Jordan Read, 617 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: appreciate your time, continued success to you and everybody over 618 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: at the Draft Network, and uh, we encourage everybody make 619 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: sure you check it out.

Absolutely, thank you, guys. I look forward to 624 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: this every year thanks to Jordan Read from the Draft Network. 625 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: Appreciate his time and insight, and again GRIBs, it's it's 626 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: fascinating because we're a picky six and there's so many 627 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: things that can happen between pick one and pick twenty 628 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: six and where we might go. We're starting to see 629 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: some names floating in and we'll get to those in 630 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: just a minute. But some great insight from from Jordan 631 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: Reed on really this draft class as it starts to 632 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: come together and we start to see these pro days 633 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: and get a little more of a background on some 634 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: of these guys going into draft day. Anytime we talk 635 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: to these guys and then I look at all the uncertainties, 636 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: I look at all the teams I had the Browns, 637 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: I have similar needs and could easily take some of 638 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: these guys that were starting to fall in love with. 639 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: I'm I'm just I'm starting to get the itch for 640 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: the for the move up, Like do you need to 641 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: move up? And I can see I can see how 642 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: some teams fall into the trap of that in the 643 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: end of the first round. I mean, you get it 644 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: gets to be eleven o'clock on the first round the 645 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: draft to get a board, you know, you want to 646 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: get it over with. I mean that it up a 647 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: long night. I mean, it's so I'm just wondering, this 648 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: is too much uncertainty. I'm used to the certainty that 649 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: that you have at the top of the draft. Even 650 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: even last year, number ten, I felt a lot more 651 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: certain about You're going to get a tackle at some point. 652 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: Now I don't. I don't know. I mean, I just 653 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident it's gonna be on defense. But outside 654 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,239 Speaker 1: of that, I don't know if my insight is going 655 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: to change much more by April. I don't think I'm 656 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: gonna know any more then than I do now. I 657 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting, and we teased it earlier. Mel 658 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: hyper Jr. Put out his mock last week. It was 659 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 1: kind of crazy. We talked about it a little bit, 660 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: some trades and Mel never puts trades in things. Uh. 661 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: He had a teleconference with the media and it's it's 662 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: pretty insane to listen to it because It's literally him 663 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: ninety minutes just answering question after question from like from 664 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: like Dubuke to Fort Lauderdale to you name the city. 665 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: Someone's calling with a question, and he just rattles things 666 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: off like it's nobody's business. And there were a couple 667 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: of Browns questions, include our including our Anthony Possel, who 668 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: had a question for him about what to do it 669 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: pick number twenty six And obviously in his mock he 670 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: had the Browns taking a linebacker. But the follow up 671 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: question came a little bit later on defensive end, wide receiver. 672 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: Could you see one of those positions? Mel saying, if 673 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: you're looking for a burner, if you're looking for a 674 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: speed ster that gets but you know what they can 675 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: get behind the defense, maybe you're better off trading into 676 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 1: the second round and getting rid of that pick. And 677 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: he also said the defensive ends at that point in 678 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: the draft, there could already be some questions there. There 679 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: there are a lot of questions about some of those guys. 680 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: What do you make of that? I mean, we we've 681 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: seen the linebacker mock to this team a ton and 682 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's gonna happen, not gonna happen. 683 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:52,719 Speaker 1: We're really who knows what direction. But with questions at 684 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: defensive end or Mel's advice to trade out of the 685 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: first round to go get a wide receiver, what do 686 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: you make of these? Yeah, I mean it just kind 687 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 1: of makes sense when you think about a defensive end 688 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: is one of the most valued positions in the NFL. 689 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: We saw what Myles Garrett is making, We saw the 690 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: impact that he's able to have. I mean, it's it's 691 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: it's right up there, it's it goes quarterback, then maybe 692 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: tackle or pass rusher. I mean that that's that's that's 693 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: how important that position is on the field. So if 694 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: you're looking for a plug and play pass rusher, number 695 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: twenty six is not going to be the spot to 696 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: get it. I mean, you're you're there's gonna be a 697 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: reason why a pass rusher falls to number twenty six. 698 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: So there's gonna be either a mix of maybe lack 699 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: of consistent motor or inconsistency maybe, or it's the wrong 700 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: size for the position that in terms of the scheme, 701 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: or it's someone like a Quidty Pay out of Michigan 702 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: who maybe his best football is a few years from now. 703 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's the that's the reason why when 704 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: you're getting into pass rusher at number twenty six, just 705 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: like you would be if with a quarterback, and just 706 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: like you would be with an offensive tackle. I mean, 707 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: if if you're getting someone down there at that spot, 708 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have to work with them a little 709 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: bit before they're ready to go Week one. I mean, 710 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: I think you you might strike gold and get get 711 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: and and get a great player that has fallen maybe 712 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: too far than they should. But odds are, teams do 713 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: their homework, and so if you're drafting a pass rusher 714 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: at number twenty six, I think the odds of them 715 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: being able to start right away are different than if 716 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: you're drafting, say a linebacker at number twenty six or 717 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: a running back at six. I just think there's with 718 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: each position you have to go higher and iron in 719 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: the draft to get someone that is truly a plug 720 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: and play day one guy. I think there is a 721 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: misconception that if you get drafted in the first round, 722 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: you need to be an impact player right away. And 723 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: I think top ten, absolutely, no question about maybe even 724 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: top fifteen, But those picks later in the first round 725 00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: can be a developmental pick. I don't know what behoof's 726 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: the Browns at pick to get a guy that can 727 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: play right away or a developmental guy. It will be 728 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: fascinating as this draft unfurls to see exactly what the 729 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 1: Browns thought processes as as it pertains to that. Yeah, 730 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: and you go back to last year, I mean, and 731 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: really you go back to the second round last year 732 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: where this kind of logic can play out. I mean, 733 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: you got a guy in Grant Delpitt who was in 734 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 1: all and what we think was a plug and play 735 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 1: guy at safety, but that's safety. I mean, you don't 736 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: see a lot of safeties go in the first round 737 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: of the draft, and and so, but with him, you 738 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: got someone who maybe had first round value that ended 739 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 1: up falling down that way. So maybe your goal is 740 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,959 Speaker 1: maybe you're getting someone with top of half of first 741 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: round potential at six and maybe having to wait a 742 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: little bit, or you get someone similar to maybe like 743 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: the Ravens last year, getting like a Patrick Queen down 744 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: at that part of the draft. I mean, he was 745 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: plug and play and he had his ups and downs 746 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: last year, but we're assuming he's just gonna be locked 747 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: into that spot on the Ravens defense for the years, 748 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: so you have the opportunity to maybe get someone like that, 749 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: like a Zaven Collins. But it's all about what you 750 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: value position wise, and is it better to have a 751 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: linebacker that you know you can can start for you 752 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: for the next four years or a pass rusher that 753 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: maybe you think can develop into something even more special 754 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 1: down the road. And so that that's that that's all 755 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: the the analysis that the front office has to do 756 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: and why they're uh in charge of what they're doing. 757 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: And I think that what they do in free agency, 758 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: I think we'll have to dictate a little bit of that. 759 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: I know, when we talk about draft, you you can 760 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 1: say you never draft for need. I think that changes 761 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: just a little bit when you're in the position the 762 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: Browns are, when you're in the position of making trying 763 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: to get back to the playoffs. I just think it's 764 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: a little different than when you're say, like what the 765 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: Jaguars are going into this draft right now or the Jets. 766 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, those teams can't draft for need because they 767 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of needs. The Browns they've got some needs, 768 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 1: but they've they've got where the ability to target some 769 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: of those needs. Maybe a little bit better than some 770 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: other teams. Well, and the clock is ticking. A lot 771 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 1: of contracts are up, a lot of rookie contracts are up, 772 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be time to to get some of 773 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: those guys paid. And when now, when they're on those 774 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:22,240 Speaker 1: rookie contracts, I think that also takes on and added importance. 775 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: All right, on your breakdowns, your weekly mock draft review 776 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns dot com. You can check that out, Uh, 777 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:37,839 Speaker 1: mocks from the Athletic from NFL Network, CBS Sports dot com. 778 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: The one name that keeps popping up, Actually there are 779 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 1: two names to the pop up, Quitty Pay, Quity k 780 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: w I t y uh and tray Von Morig is 781 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: the H silent. I think it's all right, Uh safety 782 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: out of t see you. Uh, two names that definitely 783 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: keep popping up. What do you know about Quitty Pay? 784 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: We'll start with him first. Well, he's again someone with 785 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: a lot of upside and I think that as as 786 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: Chris Burke mentions in his draft, there's there's legitimate top 787 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 1: ten buzz around this guy, and so twenty six and 788 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: obviously that'd be great to get someone that is potentially 789 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: getting top ten buzz. I think Todd McShay had him 790 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: his high had him at eleventh in his draft. So 791 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 1: this is there's a lot of mixed opinions on him, 792 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: I think. And I just think it's because he's a 793 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,959 Speaker 1: developmental player because he went to Michigan, had had played 794 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 1: running back in high school, so he's only two eight 795 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: pounds in high school. UH, And it's just a freakish athlete. 796 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 1: And I think the UH. He was included in Bruce 797 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 1: Feldman's UH College Football Freaks list for UH and his 798 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: freakiest attribute is three cone speed drill, which, as he 799 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,320 Speaker 1: recorded UH for for Scouts the year before the Combine, 800 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: his time of six point three seven seconds would have 801 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: topped anyone at the actual NFL Combine. So he's he's 802 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: a very just a tremendously gifted player. But again would 803 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: fall into the discussion on I don't know if he's 804 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: plug and playing. I don't know if he's someone that 805 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 1: you say, say, Olivia Vernon is not back, we'll put 806 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: Quity pay there. I don't know if that's the I 807 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: don't know if that's the the answer, because you're getting 808 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: him late in the first round and you might need 809 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 1: to work with him for a little bit, but clearly 810 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,800 Speaker 1: falls into the tremendous upside while also helping the Browns 811 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: fill an area where they need some more depth. I 812 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: think that's pretty clear. I don't know if you're going 813 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: to get a starter and free agency or the draft 814 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: at that position, but you certainly need some more body 815 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 1: to that position. Treyvon Morig Safety TCU. I'm I'm intrigued 816 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: because it's not just one draft that has us taking 817 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 1: a safety. It's numerous mock drafts that have us potentially 818 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 1: taking a safety. I'm intrigued. Why safety do you think 819 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: in in the first round? It pick well, listen it 820 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: it would be if you're getting more and you're doing 821 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 1: it at twenty six odds are you're probably taking the 822 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: first safety off the board. I mean, he's he's he 823 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: seems to be the consensus agreement to be one of 824 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 1: the best safeties in this draft. And honestly, when you 825 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: read his strengths and weaknesses, it sounds like another Grant 826 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 1: Delpit and and so in terms of what he can do, 827 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: the versatility, uh, just the coverage skills, all that and 828 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: you know a mix of everything you want out of 829 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 1: that position. Uh. And and for the Browns. I mean, 830 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,240 Speaker 1: you get back Grant Delpit and you're getting back Ronnie Harrison, 831 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 1: but Karl Joseph Andersondo, they played a lot of snaps 832 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 1: on this defense last year. They're both free agents, so 833 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,439 Speaker 1: depending on what you do with them, you may haven't 834 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: need at that safety position. And I think more it 835 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: would fall into the category of if you're at twenty six. 836 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if if it falls into the Harrison 837 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: Bryant category discussion where you're like, this player is so 838 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: good on our high on our board, we gotta take them, 839 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: even if we don't necessarily have glaring mead that we 840 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 1: might have at other positions. That could be the logic 841 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 1: behind that pick. Or if you want to get creative 842 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: on your defense and and have a lot of these 843 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 1: guys that can wear a lot of hats, I think Harrison, 844 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,160 Speaker 1: Delpitt and more it can all do be played at 845 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: a bunch of different positions, and that gives Joe Woods 846 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: a lot of options. So I think that's that that's 847 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 1: the maybe the calculus that goes into that kind of decision. 848 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: I think to take a safety twenty six, I mean, 849 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: now I think it would surprise me a little bit, 850 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,799 Speaker 1: But it could be like I just mentioned with Harrison Bryant, 851 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: where it's like, gosh, we have this guy ranked ten 852 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: spots higher than anyone else that's left on the on 853 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,359 Speaker 1: the board. You gotta go grab it. It just makes 854 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: your team better. Alright. What about Christian Barmore out of Alabama. 855 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: Pe Prisco has him going to US at pick. He's 856 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: an Alabama guy, but a defensive tackle in the first round. 857 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 1: You don't see a lot of defensive tackles going in 858 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 1: the first round, more defensive ends obviously than tackles. Yeah, 859 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 1: and it's it's in this year. You don't have any 860 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: defensive tackles may be projected in that first half of 861 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: the first round, which typically have at least one or 862 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: two going in the first half the first times. It's 863 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: a prett valuable position and it's kind of changed over 864 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: the last few years and what you see out of 865 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: defensive tackles. But bar More is like one of the 866 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 1: players who benefited the most from there being a season, 867 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 1: and particularly he benefited most from Alabama's playoff run because 868 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 1: that's where he rose to the occasion. I think Alabama 869 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 1: has had a lot of players that do this and 870 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: that they show out at the final part of their career, 871 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,319 Speaker 1: and that's all it takes because some guys just don't 872 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: get the opportunity. I mean, you go to Alabama's a 873 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: defensive lineman, you're probably red shurating and that's that's just 874 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 1: the depth they have at that position. But the track record, 875 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,319 Speaker 1: you trust what Saban has developed on that defensive line. 876 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 1: And I think you know, Alabama gets dinged a lot 877 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: because they people claim they have a lot of bus 878 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 1: in the NFL, but because they put a lot of 879 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 1: players in the NFL, you're gonna have more busts when 880 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: you do that. But if you're going position by position, 881 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 1: I would say the smallest bust rate you've had is 882 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: on the defensive line. I mean, you're you may not 883 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of superstars that have come out of Alabama, 884 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: but all these guys are solid players that that last 885 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 1: in the league for a while playing defensive line. So 886 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 1: I think Barmore is someone that is maybe more He 887 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 1: hasn't punted a ton at the college level. He finished strong, 888 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 1: but it's an arrow up kind of guy who was 889 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: in who's at Alabama for three years playing two of 890 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: them after Red Chee in that first year yeah, definitely 891 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: some interesting names. Were starting to see some trends. We're 892 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: starting to see certain positions becoming the focus of all 893 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 1: of these mock drafts that are coming in weekend and 894 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: week out. We're eight weeks away from the draft. We 895 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: are two weeks away from NFL free agency, the NFL 896 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,919 Speaker 1: machine getting revveed up. Two months ago on this day, 897 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,720 Speaker 1: we qualified, by the way, for the playoffs. We beat Pittsburgh. Yeah, 898 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,879 Speaker 1: actually two weeks from yesterday, Yes, weeks for me yesterday. Yeah, 899 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: I know what I'm doing.
