1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: What's up everybody. Welcome to move the sticks DJ Bucky

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: together again as we marched towards the draft. It is

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: April tenth, Buck. The draft is right around the corner, man,

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: and we have we've got some fun stuff on the

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: back of today. We're gonna go through our defensive draft

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: here in just a minute. We did the offense on

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,799
Speaker 1: the previous episode. If you haven't checked that out, go

9
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: do it. It's a fun one. So we're gonna get

10
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: to that here in a minute. But as I kick

11
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: it over with you to say, hello, man, we've got

12
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: some We got some news on Odell Beckham over the weekend. Man,

13
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: we do have news on Odell Beckham and Netta. Give

14
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: us a nice reprieve from you badgering me about what's

15
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: going on in the n West, even though we're team

16
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,279
Speaker 1: games in and you're talking about your beloved. We have time.

17
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: There's one hundred and fifty two games left, so we'll

18
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: get to where we need to get to. But in

19
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: terms of the news, Odell Beckham Junior, you signed with

20
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens as significant because that is a move

21
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: that cannot be made without Odell Beckham Junior. Heavn and

22
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 1: inkling on who the quarterback is going to be. And

23
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: when you saw the screenshot of the picture of Odell

24
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: Beckham Junior face timing with Lamar Jackson, it appears that

25
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: it's only a matter of time before Lamar Jackson gets there.

26
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: I do wonder though, because Odell Beckham Junior is on

27
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: a one year deal, is this potentially a precursor to

28
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: maybe Lamar Jackson coming in and either playing on the

29
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: tag or doing something that is short that allows both

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: of them to chase the super Bowl for a year

31
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: and then get out of town when it's all hidden death. Yeah.

32
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,279
Speaker 1: A couple things here. One, and we've talked about this before.

33
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: The Ravens who've caught a lot of grief over the

34
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: years for really struggling to draft whiteouts. They have not

35
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: been able to identify and hit on wide receivers. It's

36
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: Taylor as old as time. But they have been able

37
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: to make up for that by being really aggressive and

38
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: making some good moves in free agency at the receiver position.

39
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: Derek Mason was there when I was there. After I left,

40
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: you had ink on Bolden Steve Smith. I mean, they've

41
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: they've had a good group of veterans that have come

42
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: in there that still had plenty left. This one's a

43
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: little bit different, though, I would say just with Odell

44
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: because I think if you look at those other three

45
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: guys man toughness, like just kind of a grittiness and

46
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: a toughness to him, especially with Anquan and Steve Smith

47
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: and Derek Mason had a little bit of that too.

48
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: Odell's a little bit of a different receiver than that.

49
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: You know, that's not really his game. So you know,

50
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: we'll see after these these injuries what he's got left

51
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: couple of acls, what he looks like in this offense.

52
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: But you know, I want to see how its structure

53
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: as well, because it's a significant number fifteen. I guess

54
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: it could go to eighteen. I'm sure there's there's avoidable

55
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: years on the back end of it to try and

56
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: spread this out. I can't imagine they're gonna take that

57
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: big of a hit because when you just hit on Lamar,

58
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: like getting Lamar back next year, it feels like to

59
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: me from the outside looking in, that the lower tag

60
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: number that they hit him with, that that's not going

61
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: to sit well with him in terms of art. I'm

62
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: gonna comment, I'm gonna play on this lower tag number

63
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: for the year. I would be surprised if it wasn't

64
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: like a look, I'll show up, I'll get back in

65
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: the building and I'll play this out. But you got

66
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: to bump this number up, man, Like you cost me

67
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: a lot of money from the exclusive tag down to

68
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: this one. So to me, I think that number would

69
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: have to come up if you're gonna get Lamar to

70
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: at least show up at the beginning of this whole process,

71
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: even on a one year That's what I'm saying. I

72
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: think so yeah, I think on the one year tall

73
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: like DJ time is of the essence. Now that Odell

74
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: Beckham Junior is going to be in the building, you

75
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: need Lamar Jackson to show if you need them to

76
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: get on the same page, and you kind of want

77
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: to see where this offense is going to look like.

78
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: As Todd Munkin implements some changes to the bay structure,

79
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: the threat of Lamar Jackson if he returns, which we're

80
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: assuming he will be, you still have to kind of

81
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: change the way that you deploy defenders in the box.

82
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: You're talking about Odell Beckham getting one on one coverage

83
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: because he will get that until he deserves to be

84
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: double team. But it'd be interesting to see how this

85
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: plays out because the Odell Beckham junior did we last

86
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 1: I saw the one that was playing in the Super Bowl,

87
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: the one that played for the Rams. He showed flashes

88
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: of being a number one. I don't necessarily like him

89
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: as the exclusive or the lead receiver of that offense

90
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: because I believe he's kind of better when you got

91
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: a compliment. But you do have Mark Andrews in the middle,

92
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: and so maybe this is a situation whereas Odell Beckham junior,

93
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews kind of occupy on one a one BA

94
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: in the passing year, Yeah, because you had Cooper Cup

95
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: drawn a lot of coverage and that freeing up Odell

96
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: Beckham to work. Now, if he's going to be kind

97
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: of that exclusive top guy, he's not going to get

98
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: that same luxury. Maybe you're right, though maybe it's Mark

99
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: Andrews that provides that form. They've got to stay healthy though,

100
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: keep their other young white outs healthy. See what you

101
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: have there with Sead Bateman probably being the most important one.

102
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: To see what that looks like with this offense, but

103
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: it feels like it'll get your take on it, But

104
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: to me, it feels like there's no takers. There's nothing

105
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: in the works here with the Lamar Jackson trade. It

106
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: feels like Indie was that team, and it feels like

107
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: they seem to be intent to sit right where they

108
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: are and see how the draft goes. But if you're

109
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: asking me right now, I don't know, percentage wise, buck,

110
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: what do you think eighty five percent chancel Lamar Jackson's

111
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: back with the Ravens and maybe even hired than that.

112
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think he might even be hired. I

113
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: think it's ninety nine. That was a huge domino. I

114
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: think they kind of let it out of the bag

115
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: because we can sit here and saying, oh, well, you

116
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 1: know you have Odell Beckham junior. If you can get

117
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: a young quarterback. But that's not why you make a

118
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: move for Odell Beckham junior. You don't pay Odell Beckham

119
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: Junior fifteen million plus to play with a young guy

120
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: that's developmental and it is going to grow into the

121
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: position you make this move because now you're kind of

122
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: pushing everything into the center of the table and you're

123
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: trying to make a Super Bowl push. And the only

124
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: way you can make the Super Bowl push if you're

125
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 1: the Ravens, you gotta bring Lamar Jackson back. And whether

126
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: that's on a one year, two year, or whatever. Note,

127
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: I would expect Lamar Jackson be back in the building.

128
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: And so that changes the dynamic because now the AFC

129
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: is loaded with quarterback play, and so we're anticipating Aaron

130
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: Rodgers coming over DJ. This is this is, this is

131
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: one to watch. The AFC is stacked when it comes

132
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: to quarterback play. Yeah, and I'm looking this up right now.

133
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: So the Ravens picking twenty second, buck, they pick twenty second,

134
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: They have no second round pick. Roquan Smith came over

135
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: and was a great, great fit for them. They paid him,

136
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: so that there goes their second round pick. They have

137
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: a four or five and a six, so really only

138
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: five picks. I'll be shocked, you know, as it stands

139
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: right now, five picks. They'll end up with eight or

140
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 1: nine picks when it's all said and done. That's the

141
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: way they operate, that's the way they do business. I

142
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: will be very surprised if they pick at twenty two,

143
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 1: unless they just simply can't get out but I would

144
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: imagine they're trying to move back and try and fill

145
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 1: out the rest of this roster. But I think we're

146
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: on this. I think we're saying the same thing. I

147
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: think we know see this the same that Lamar is

148
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: going to come back. But I I don't think he

149
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 1: just comes back on that low number, do you. I mean,

150
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: at least not kicking and screaming is a you know,

151
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be happy about it. But

152
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: I think if you could find a compromise on a

153
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 1: on a short term basis, that to me the most sense. Yeah. Look,

154
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: I contend, and we've talked about this. I would say

155
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: that his best course of action if it comes to

156
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: like wanting to get fully guaranteed money, is to just

157
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: ball it up and say, hey, how about we go

158
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: three year, one hundred and fifty million fully guaranteed. That's

159
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: fifty million per It puts them over the top of

160
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: the food chain. It's essentially what the three franchise tags

161
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: lump together would be with a little sugar on top,

162
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 1: and then you have your quarterback. Everyone gets what they want.

163
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: He is on a short term deal, so man, he

164
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: can get out at the end of it and maybe

165
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: have another payday. The Baltimore Ravens are not necessarily tied

166
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 1: to the quarterback, and maybe a style of play beyond

167
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: three years. At some point, I would expect to see

168
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: a real short term deal so that all parties can

169
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: be satisfied when it comes to fully guaranteed and maybe

170
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: the length that you want to continue with this marriage. Yeah,

171
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: no doubt. Maybe it's even you get creative on it,

172
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: and you can even go shorter then and say, hey,

173
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: that's two years. Let's lock it in. But after two years,

174
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: you know, we agree not to him, you know, so

175
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: you get two years. Maybe during that time you could

176
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: work out a longer agreement over that course of time.

177
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: But it locks him in for two but also lets

178
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: him know that he's going to be free after two years,

179
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: and it allows the Ravens to have two years to

180
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: kind of plan, you know, for the next thing, for

181
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: the future. But just lock in those two numbers. Maybe

182
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of the way to go at a

183
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: higher number there than what he's getting this year. Yeah,

184
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: like two year, one hundred million dollars. You have it.

185
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: Everyone is happy. In essence, he plays on two franchise

186
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: tags and then he's able to walk out of the

187
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: duel without restriction. So he gets to guarantee that he

188
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 1: would have gotten if he had played on two tags,

189
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: but he also gets to walk away and test the market.

190
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: At twenty seven twenty eight, however over old, he will

191
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: be at the end of his term. Yeah, no doubt.

192
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: So there you go, Odell Beckham. That was kind of

193
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 1: the big news. The only remaining domino at fall is

194
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as well as this third overall pick. I mean,

195
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: we've been saying that Arizona Cardinals are not picking it three.

196
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: It makes no sense for them to pick it three.

197
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: They're going to get out. I know there's some reports

198
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: out already that they've talked to a handful plus teams

199
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: about that selection. I don't think we get to Kansas

200
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: City with them possessing the third pick. I would imagine

201
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: that gets done ahead of time and somebody's going to

202
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: get up there. I do think. I think at this

203
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,959
Speaker 1: point in time, you find the deal that you want

204
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: and then you execute trade and be done with it,

205
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: because I want certainty to be able to plan. I

206
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: know you could sit there and wait till you're on

207
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 1: the clock. I guess hypothetically, but I just think it's

208
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: easier for all parties. It's cleaner to let's get some runway,

209
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: Let's allow ourselves time to really get settled in here.

210
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 1: They're gonna have plenty offers and leverage to get a

211
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: really good deal. Okay, so let's let's go with that. So,

212
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: if this is a move to get to number three,

213
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: are we getting the number three to take a quarterback?

214
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: And if we are taking a quarterback, who is said quarterback? Yeah?

215
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you have to assume that the

216
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: you know, Strout and Bryce are off the board. Those

217
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 1: two guys are gone one and two, whatever order they

218
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: come off. So you're a team, you have to be

219
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: comfortable with whoever the third guy is for you, whether

220
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: that's Anthony Richardson, whether that's Will Levis. You gotta love

221
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: one of those guys. And that's that's what this trade

222
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: is all about. And it seems like the fact that

223
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: we have all these teams in contact with Arizona and

224
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: exploring the option, as it's been reported that there's teams

225
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: that are they're coveting one of those two guys, so

226
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: that that's who it is. I couldn't tell you if

227
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: which one. I know teams. I've talked to teams that

228
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: like Richardson. I've talked to teams that really like Levis.

229
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: So's it's going to come down to who it is. No, no, No,

230
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: I think is a It's gonna be an interesting watch

231
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: from afar because with Will Levis and Anthony Richardson and

232
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: do you value those guys as top five picks and

233
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the team that moves up into the top five to

234
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: get them, what is that going to look like in

235
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 1: terms of building it out for those guys to have success,

236
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: Because we could sit here and talk about A. Both

237
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: guys need to red shirt, they need to have time,

238
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: they need to develop. When you take someone at number three,

239
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: it is the clock is ticking on when he's want

240
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: to get them the field. And so you take that

241
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: and add that pressure and all of those things, it

242
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: does become a fascinating thing. The other thing is we've

243
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 1: always kind of assumed that the Houston Texans are going

244
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: to take one of the other quarterbacks at whoever. They

245
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: don't whoever's not taking at one, they're gonna take them

246
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 1: at two. Lance Zelin kind of made that that that

247
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: conversation come throward grenade, and that when you talked about

248
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: what maybe and as my draft he put Tyree Wilson

249
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: or pass pass Rusher there because maybe they don't want

250
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: to deal with the same representation that represented Deshaun Watson.

251
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: If it's c J st do you buy that? Do

252
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 1: you buy that theory? Though? Do you buy that? I

253
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 1: mean because because to me, I mean, like who the

254
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: agent is? I mean, that's like, you know what that

255
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: reminds me? You know what that reminds me of? That's

256
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: the same thing Buck is. I don't know if you

257
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 1: know people like this. I was gonna go see that movie,

258
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: but that actor I don't agree with his political, uh

259
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: you know, beliefs. So I'm not gonna go see this movie.

260
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, who cares, I'm watch the movie. He's an

261
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: actor act in the movie. I can I can separate

262
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: that between what the movie is. If you if you

263
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: if you gonna hit an agent and say, Okay, I

264
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: didn't like how we dealt with him on this particular client.

265
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 1: There's there's what three or four big agencies that represent

266
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,680
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the league, Like you can't just not

267
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 1: deal with them because you had one bad dealing with

268
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 1: an agent like that I don't. I just don't think

269
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: it works like that. Oh well, I certainly would like

270
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: to think that you don't bypass that, because then if

271
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: you are the Texas and you decide not to take

272
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback, then when are you going to get your quarterback?

273
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: And what happens if yeah, what happens if he's got

274
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback? Next year? You're gonna just say, oh, I

275
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: can't take a he's got this quarterback. But that there's

276
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: no way. It is one of those things that I'm

277
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 1: worried about. But it'd be interesting to see how it

278
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: plays out. Starting with Arizona Cardinals, who trades up to

279
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: get to that spot, and then who says the table

280
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: for the team that takes the number three pick by?

281
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: What did Hues and Texans do at two? Do they

282
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 1: take a quarterback or do they try and find another position? Play?

283
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: To go to me, it has to be a quarterback.

284
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: But we've seen crazier things happen when drafting. All Right,

285
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: before we take a break and come back into this

286
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: defensive draft, Buck, just tell me this. You're Houston. You

287
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: just brought in, you brought back to Miko. Ryan's like

288
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: the former player bringing all types of energy back into

289
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: the building, into a stadium and a fan base that's

290
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: starving to have something going for him. So you got Demko,

291
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: you got all this, you know, optimism. They did some

292
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: things in free agency, brought in some key pieces. They

293
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: had a pretty good draft last year to get Larmy

294
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: Tunsel locked up, and it's like we've built up this

295
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 1: crescendo and then week one you look at your quarterback

296
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: group and you've got Davis Mills, Case Keenum and E. J. Perry. Really,

297
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: there's no way they're not taking a quarterback. Zero chance. Yeah,

298
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: they now they have to take one. They have to

299
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: take one DJ because you can't try that out there.

300
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: And you were lucky because you had a franchise quarterback

301
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: for a while. They and Deshaun Watson they played at

302
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 1: the top. I love the last time you played for

303
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: their franchise. They need to have somebody else because, as

304
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: we talked about it with Lamar Jackson participally going back

305
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 1: to Baltimore, it is loaded on the AFC side, and

306
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: guess what is loaded a young quarterback talent. So if

307
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: you're going to get into this arms race, you better

308
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: identify your QB one and give yourself a chance to

309
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: kind of close the gap on the competition. All right,

310
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: we're seeing that the same there. Let's take a quick break.

311
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: We're gonna come back and we'll knock out our defensive draft.

312
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: Bucky has the first pick. We'll get to that right

313
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: after this. All right, Buck, it's time we knocked out

314
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: the offense. On the previous episode. I won't give you

315
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: the names there. You can go back and listen to

316
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 1: that if you haven't already. It's a fun episode. But

317
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: today we're switching over to the defensive side. You were

318
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: kind enough to give me the first pick on offense.

319
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: That means you are up with the first pick on defense.

320
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: And i'mn be honest, Buck, I have put together a

321
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: strategy that I think is a winning strategy of how

322
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: to piecemeal this defense to other and where to go

323
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: first and where to go in this direction. So I mean,

324
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: I I'm ready for this kind of this off the

325
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: off the off to the side strategy. Maybe not mainstream,

326
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: but I feel like I've got something for you here.

327
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: So go ahead, start us off. Take Will Anderson. Let's go.

328
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: Let's start the draft. You're up, Okay, No, I'm not

329
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: taking Will Anderson out of the gate, I'm going and

330
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna going with the number one defensive player in

331
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: the draft. I'm gonna go with Jaylen Carter. Jayleen Carter,

332
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: for that was my play BB, because I am going

333
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: with him. I understand all the things that we feel

334
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: like we had the right environment for him to flourish

335
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: and thrive. When you look at the player, the player

336
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: is a dominant player with versatility. He could play anywhere

337
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: from one to five. He gives me the bility to

338
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: dominate as a point of attack. And so Jaylen Carter,

339
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: walk over and pick up your draft hat. You're in

340
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: there with team BB. Oh you make me so mad.

341
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: So that was my that was the cleaner I thought,

342
00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna go with the cleaner player. I thought you're

343
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: gonna go with Will Anderson. Oh no, no, Like as

344
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: my dad would say, like on every team, you gotta

345
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: have a couple of guys with the hack cock to

346
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: the side a little bit. So I'm okay with Jalen Carter.

347
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: We'll we'll deal with some of the other Stokay, all right, Well,

348
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: you totally destroyed my I gotta rethink the whole draft now.

349
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: It's terrible. You really thought Jilen Carter. Yes, yes, terrible

350
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: would leave me. All right, all right, I have other

351
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: areas I would like to go, but I gotta go.

352
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: I'll go Will Anderson here, I'm all out of sorts

353
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: right now. I gotta go Will Anderson. I'm sure my

354
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: highest rated defensive player, all things considered. I'm sure he's

355
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: excited by the way that you hand to Dick card

356
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: In like. I'm sure he's like, whoa wow, look at

357
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: look at the peak into their draft room. They're really

358
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: excited to get me. I want to go and job

359
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: no to me in the real draft, in the real draft.

360
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: I'm excited because he's my highest rated defensive player. But

361
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: in the strategy of trying to build out an eleven,

362
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: I thought that the right you made, the right move

363
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: you take. It's a thin defensive tackle class compared to

364
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: the edge rushers. So that's why, say, that's why Bucky

365
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: gets paid too. Okay, he's making a good pick. It's

366
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,719
Speaker 1: a good strategy. I gotta react. Now, we gotta get

367
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 1: I gotta get it back on. I gotta get back

368
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 1: on the horse. Here. What do you got, what's next? Okay? Okay,

369
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: So look, well we'll go so Will Anderson is off

370
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,959
Speaker 1: the board, So how about I will go with Tyree Wilson.

371
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 1: I'll make sure that I get a second rated pass

372
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: rusher almost boards. I'll take the Texas Tech stand out.

373
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put him alongside Jayleen Carter, and away we

374
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: go because we're hunting, hunting, hunting, hunting quarterbacks all the time. Okay,

375
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: I like that. That's a good pick. I'm gonna come

376
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: back with Devin Witherspoons, so I'm gonna get my top corner.

377
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 1: So right now I end up. I end up with

378
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 1: my top edge rusher and Will Anderson. Now end up

379
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: with my top corner here and Devin Witherspoon, who as

380
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: answer the test. The tape is clean. He makes plays

381
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: on the ball. He's an excellent tackler. I guess there

382
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: were some folks that were worried about how he was

383
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: going to run. I didn't really see that as an issue.

384
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: He went out and ran the low four fours. Check

385
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: that box. You know. The work habits, the study habits

386
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: are off the charts. The competitiveness, he's a little chippy,

387
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: likes to talk a little bit, plays with a little edge.

388
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: I like that in my corners as well, I wish

389
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: he was ten pounds heavier, but it is what it

390
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: is buck to me. I like him the best. I

391
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: think he's the best corner in the draft. Oh look

392
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: he's now standing corner. He has great instincts, awareness, he

393
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: has all the technique things that you look for, and

394
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 1: so I love what he can do on the island.

395
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: Now that I get a chance to pick, I love cornerbacks,

396
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,640
Speaker 1: but I'm not taking a cornerback. I am now going

397
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: to take Kalijah Cancy to then go on my defense

398
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: because we're gonna build it from front to back. We're

399
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: gonna make sure that we are dominated at the point

400
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,679
Speaker 1: of attack, and we can just put him there so

401
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 1: we can piss him in with Look, he's not Aaron

402
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: Donald him. We'll put him in a gibbe our sub

403
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: defensive attack and make sure we can get up to

404
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: the quarterback all the times. Yeah, I like it. That

405
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: move that's strong. It's strong, too, very strong there. So

406
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm impressed with that. But I'm gonna go I'm gonna

407
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: you're trying to build front to back, I'm gonna build

408
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: it a little bit back to front. So I went

409
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: with Witherspoon with my first pick. I'm gonna come back

410
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: with Christian Gonzalez and just feel like I got the

411
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: best pair of corners in the draft. So I've got Weatherspoon,

412
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: it was not quite as big, but as really instinctive,

413
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 1: fluid and a playmaker. I've got Christian Gonzalez. I can

414
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: match him up with the bigger whiteouts. He's six six

415
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 1: o one three so over six one, he's got thirty

416
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: two inch arms, ran fourth, three eight fluid, fast, a

417
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: really really talented football player I think is best ahead

418
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: of him. So I'm gonna get my corners. So you

419
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 1: can wait on corners now because I've got both those

420
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: guys locked up. You know I can wait on corners.

421
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,280
Speaker 1: This is a good thing because right now, man, I

422
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: know you're big on HDTV, and so you like to

423
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: see how these guys build houses and those things. And

424
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: so look at all stores said the foundation, and so

425
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: what I'm doing is I'm putting the pieces of a

426
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: foundation for a dominant man defensive line. And so now

427
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here and I'm struggling. I'm like, who do

428
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: I want to be that final piece? Like do I

429
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: want Hercules to be that piece on the edge And

430
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: Lucas Vanes or do I want to go off the

431
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: grid and maybe get some twitch, some juice. And I

432
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: know this one might hurt you. This one might hurt

433
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: you because what I'm doing is I'm going through there.

434
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: I'm driven through there on my way. But I think

435
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: i'm gonna I think we're gonna aims Iowa. I think

436
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: I'm going to Iowa State. I think i'm gonna get

437
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: Will mc done. I think I'm put Will McDonald on

438
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: the air. Just give me a little more, a little

439
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: more juice to come off the air. So now we

440
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: get we got all bounced team, a bunch of cats

441
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: at that line of scrimmage. I like it. I like it.

442
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: You've got your whole defensive line taken care of, which

443
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: means I can wait on d line, which means I

444
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 1: can now continue to build out the best secondary imaginable.

445
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: Buck Because I've got the top corners, I hope you

446
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: can do something. Yeah, you got the top two quers now,

447
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: and now I'm going to add the best nickel in

448
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: the draft who I could list him as a safety,

449
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: but I have him as a nickel on my board.

450
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna stay there, gonna go Brian Branch from Alabama,

451
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: who's gonna be playing a nickel for me. And we're

452
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: just gonna build out the best secondary we can here.

453
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 1: So we've got Weatherspooning Gonzales at corners, I've got Brian

454
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: Branches my nickel, and I've already got the A plus

455
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 1: edge rusher here and Will Anderson and I can wait

456
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: on the rest of my d line here. I got

457
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: time to figure that one out. I mean, you certainly

458
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 1: have time. You have time to get back to building

459
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 1: out that the great secondary. I mean, like you have

460
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: all the guy all the skinny guys like are all

461
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: back there, Like I hope, oh someone can slow down

462
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: the ball before he gets to the secondary. But you

463
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: got those guys they can cover. I don't know if

464
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: we ever get to a passing down, but yeah, that's

465
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,880
Speaker 1: that's gonna be great. So I'm gonna continue to work

466
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: on the foundation. And so now I'm just thinking about

467
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: the second level. And it's so funny because this is

468
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: a really interesting class when it comes to looking at

469
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: the linebackers, and I got to make a decision on

470
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: what do I want? Do I want like speed, like

471
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,959
Speaker 1: a Trent Simpson that can run around and make plays.

472
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: Do I want to downhill plugger like a Jack Campbell

473
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: who can do it? Do I won't Sanders who can

474
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: do a bunch of different things. So what I'm gonna

475
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: go right now is I think I'm gonna go with Campbell.

476
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Iowa standout. I'm just holding.

477
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: I'm going with Jack Campbell. I'm gonna put him as

478
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 1: my antide linebacker and now have a green dot player

479
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,439
Speaker 1: who can make some things happen. And so we can

480
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: get lined up and we can play. And if you

481
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 1: want to play seven, nine on seven, we're ready to

482
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 1: have a nine on seven drill because we've got some

483
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: thumpers up up front. Yeah, I like that pick. I

484
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: can't complain about that. Jack Campbell ultra you know, ultra instinctive, smart, tough,

485
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: all the characteristics of any Iowa football player. He checks

486
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 1: all those boxes. Big too, be able to run down

487
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 1: the steam and make plays. But you hit on the

488
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: guy I'm gonna take. You went with kind of the

489
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: uh you know, the maybe more of the tackle to

490
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,439
Speaker 1: tackle guy. I'm gonna go just speed, athleticism, explosiveness to

491
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: match with my secondary. Now I'm gonna drop Trent and

492
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: Simpson down in the middle of that defense. Here, give

493
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: me some real speed at linebacker. So I feel like, again,

494
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: were we are, We're ultra ultra athletic. In the back

495
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: end of the defense right now, you are ultra athletic.

496
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: And for those who over will like I'm partially influenced

497
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: by my time with the Carolina Pants is when we

498
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl and that front line that

499
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: we had a front we had Mike Rutger, we had

500
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: Brinson Buckner, we had big man Julius Peppers, and we

501
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: had Chris Jenkins, and so we were able to dominate

502
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: people up front because we had Dan Morgan behind the

503
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: mark fields being able to get it done. So now

504
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: I need another I guess I need a know, a

505
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 1: linebacker that can kind of make plays. And so this

506
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: is where it really gets tough for me because like

507
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: kind of man that who I want a man that

508
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: spot that that can play there. And I kind of

509
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: feel like, like, do i want like a pass rushing

510
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: linebacker that can do some of those things? No, I'm

511
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: gonna wait. I'm gonna go to corner right now. And

512
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: so what I'm gonna do at corner is I'm gonna

513
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: take Joey Porter Junior, and I'm gonna put him on

514
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 1: one side, and he's gonna lock it down, and we're

515
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: gonna be a very, very physical and aggressive team, rescuing

516
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: towards more of a Tampa two type team where we

517
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 1: beat you up from brush four. But I kind of

518
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: like the way we're putting it together. All right, Now

519
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: I get to Now I get to come down hard

520
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: on you because this is the first mistake that's been

521
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,439
Speaker 1: made in the mock draft. I already had my two corners.

522
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: You could have waited. You didn't need to take a corner,

523
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 1: I know, but I was just trying to put it together. Now,

524
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: so you want you wanted your guy that much, Now

525
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to tell Joey Porter when he

526
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: comes in. Look, man, I could have taken you the

527
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: last pick of the draft. I didn't have to do it,

528
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: but I have so I love you so much. I

529
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: couldn't disrespect you and have you wait in line behind

530
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 1: these other positions. So I mean, that's no I could building.

531
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 1: It's an identity. It's an identity thing you're building with

532
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: your roster, all right. I can go linebacker or safety here,

533
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: So I've got two options. Man, I do not love

534
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: I do not love this group. Here. Um see, see

535
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: you're stuck now, you don't have anything picking at the

536
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: bottom of the barrel. All right, all right, all right,

537
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm I got though. You look great in shorts. I'm

538
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: gonna go. I'm gonna go to the safety position, and

539
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: I might surprise you with this one. Here. I'm gonna

540
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: go with Sydney Brown from Illinois. Sydney Brown, I'd pick

541
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 1: man six picks really good, that's one. Plus, he's a

542
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: great special teams player. You know, Hey, let's get let's

543
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: get somebody early on. We able to cover some kicks

544
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 1: with him as well. Man, that's a really good pick.

545
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,159
Speaker 1: That's a good pick. All right. Kind of kicking myself

546
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 1: like I liked him. That's a good pick. You know,

547
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: you're man, he kind of stuff like, I know, we

548
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: took took all the front line guys. I got my linebacker.

549
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here now trying to figure out like where

550
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: else there I got two sticker. But I'm gonna I'm fine.

551
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: I gotta get my nickel. I gotta get my nickel corner,

552
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: So let me get my nickel. I'm gonna go and

553
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: get Clark Phillips to play nickel for US from Utah.

554
00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 1: I like that. Arguably the best nickel corner in the draft.

555
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: Great Instincts has six picks last year. Tough, competitive, very athletic.

556
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: So we now have it outside corner. We got an

557
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: inside nickel. Uh really, man, I'm telling you, man, it's

558
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl thirty eight Carolina Panthers that we're rebuilding.

559
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: I like that. I like it. Uh all right, my

560
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: my next one. Gosh, man, I just I know, man,

561
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,959
Speaker 1: see love. I don't love these options, but shopping shot

562
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: shopping shopping is tight. Mm hmmm h all right, m

563
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: it's tough, all right. I don't like this. I don't

564
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: like it, but I'm gonna end up going. I'm gonna

565
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: get my second safety here. I'm gonna add my second

566
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: Alabama player to put in the secondary. I'm gonna go.

567
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Battle from Alabama is my other player. It's a

568
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: good player, so consistent player can play in the deep half.

569
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: Un didn't love him getting run over by b Jean Robinson.

570
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you about that one. Didn't love

571
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: that aspect of it. But somebody that's it's aware can

572
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: find and play the football. He certainly is a where

573
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: he can't play the football. He does have like a

574
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: little knack for being able to make things happen. And

575
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: so I'm with that. So let's now go. And this

576
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: is interesting because I need a linebacker. I need two

577
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: safeties and a corner. I think I can wait on

578
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: the linebacker a little bit. Let's go. And even though

579
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: I don't need to get the corner because you've already

580
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: locked up the corner, let's get the corner anyway, because

581
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: I want to try these guys out. And so now

582
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: let's go with Deyontay Banks from Maryland. And so now

583
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 1: what you're seeing is we talked about being big on

584
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,880
Speaker 1: the perimeter. So now I have Joey Porter Jr. On

585
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: one side, have Beyontay Banks on the other side, have

586
00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: Clark Phillips inside. We can beat you up out, played

587
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 1: cover to play man to man. Uh And then we

588
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 1: got Clark Phillips to be able to run around with

589
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: your slide guy kind of like what we're putting together. Okay,

590
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: I like that. I like that. Um I am up

591
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 1: next with I gotta get a linebacker here. I'm gonna

592
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: come on and get one and take one off the board.

593
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: You're not in love with the linebacker class, not in

594
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: love with the linebacker class at all. No, I know

595
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: you're him in a home and you can't figure it out.

596
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: There's a guy sitting there like a blinking like. You

597
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: don't want him, you don't like the way he fits

598
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 1: your program. You're gonna take away sometimes you gonna have to.

599
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: You have to take him. Guys, got poor guys sitting

600
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: in the green room waiting to hear his name called.

601
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: You just you just come on, man, have some excitement,

602
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 1: have some excitement about your team. I'm taking Drew Sanders

603
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: buck and I am gonna plug him right in next

604
00:28:55,120 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: to Trenton Simpson. And I've got myself a versatile player. Um,

605
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: almost as much taking him from you as opposed to

606
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 1: taking him for me. You're a little higher on him

607
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: than I am. But I got somebody with some some

608
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 1: size speed there. What's it gonna take him? Man? I

609
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: love that phone call. I love that phone call that

610
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: you made, like in the draft room, like, hey man,

611
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: I got white there, I got white clean? Yeah. Yeah,

612
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: how are you doing? Are you moving out of your live?

613
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: Everybody's there all right? Man? Well yep, I think we're

614
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: gonna take come on in. That's what you basically did.

615
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: That was a a lot of enthusiasm. Not a lot

616
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: of enthusiasm, But that's okay. So let me add to

617
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: the let me add to my secondary. Let me see

618
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: if I can find the safety. Let me go with

619
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: the I think he is the self proclaimed turnover king.

620
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: I think that is Jayre Brown from Penn State. Yep, yeah,

621
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna go with him. So we talked about

622
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: uh ten and it's options fifteen total turnovers that he's

623
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: been a part of throughout his career with the Nney lines.

624
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: And now I have a teammate with Jolie Porter, so

625
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: we talked about the communication in the back end and

626
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: so we dig it really good, really good. I like

627
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: that really good football player on tape which she ran faster,

628
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: but similar to uh, what was my man from from

629
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: Notre Dame last year who did not run as fast?

630
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: Hamilton ended up playing well, Yeah, Kyle Hamilton's so I

631
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: think he's kind of this year. Is Kyle Hamilton's all right?

632
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: That's solid. That means now I can just fill out

633
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: my D line and then you need to fill out

634
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: a linebacker and what else you got and a safety.

635
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: I get a safety, So I'll fill out the rest

636
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: of my D line. And this is what this is. Well,

637
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 1: I get to fudge a little bit because I mean,

638
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: I can just fill out my D line. Then you

639
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: can take your guys because we're we're not picking on

640
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: each other anymore. So when you're gonna love how I

641
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: gets a little sneaky with this, so edge player, I

642
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,479
Speaker 1: already have Willie Anderson on the other side. Of will Anderson,

643
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw Nolan Smith and I'm gonna have I'm

644
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: gonna have a fastball coming at you on the other side.

645
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: Then with the defensive tackles, this is where we get

646
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: to fudge a little bit because Lucas Vanes does a

647
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: little outside but he also gives you a little inside

648
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: play some three technique in there, so I get to

649
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: kind of put my racecar package out there. He's not

650
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: gonna know what to do when when they do the

651
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,239
Speaker 1: starting lineups. He's not gonna know what to do when

652
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: you call his name. Lucas Vanes. Oh, I mean the game.

653
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: He's not gonna know to run out the tunnel like this.

654
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, like that's cool. So Lucas Vanes. Lucas

655
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: Vnes defasive tackle, all right, so I'm putting him at

656
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: D tackle. We're a little undersized there, but we're gonna

657
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: really be able to rush the passer um. And then uh,

658
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: I gotta get one more dtacle. So in fact, I'm

659
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: a little undersized with the first one. I gotta go

660
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: a little bit bigger with the neck one. So I'll

661
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: end up going, Uh, I'm gonna put I think I'm

662
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: gonna put. I think I'm gonna put big Mosi Smith

663
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: in there next to him from Michigan. Okay, super athletic,

664
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 1: big plugger, um, massive athlete, anybody. All these guys, a

665
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: lot of these guys that we talked about have made

666
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: Bruce Felman's freak list, um, and so that is a

667
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: nice addition. I'm gonna go back, though, because I'm a

668
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: little perturbed at myself for not making the Nolan Smith pick,

669
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: because I think I could have talked him into being

670
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 1: an off ball linebacker with some edge rush ability in

671
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 1: those things, like it's one of those things. What's funny, though,

672
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: What's funny is that like with Nolan Smith, like he

673
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: kind of gets lost in the sauce a little bit

674
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 1: because you do wonder what is it going to be

675
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: his pro position? Much like when Leonard Floyd came out

676
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: of Georgia, Like, how do you feel? Can you get

677
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: the right thing? Can you put him in the right

678
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: spot to unlock him? So what any I need another

679
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: safety and I need a linebacker. So let's gone here

680
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: we go, Let's go safety. Let's go to Boise State.

681
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 1: How about we go? Skinner, jail skinner, jail skinner, somebody, yeah,

682
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: mighty cutting dere interesting, George, I looka two point zero

683
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: I no top top of mine. That's the only thing

684
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: I can think about right now without my list. I'm

685
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: out here, I'm out here blind, I'm you're flying box

686
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: down no paper? Will you hold my strategy with the

687
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: jail and Carter pick? That changed my whole draft when

688
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: you did that. I don't think you're you're lustered. And

689
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 1: let me get Henry, Henry with all the oaths Toto. Yeah,

690
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: we're putting back. Okay, that's a solid squad. You got

691
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,719
Speaker 1: yourself right there, buddy, um let's let's sum it up here.

692
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: Let me give you Bucky's team. Bucky me has got

693
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: a dominant front. He's gonna go on his defensive line,

694
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna have, well, he's gonna have Will McDonald and

695
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: Tyree Wilson off the edges with Jalen Carter and Elijah

696
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: Cancy on the defensive tackle. So I'm gonna give you

697
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: the edge on the d line for sure. That is

698
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: a great looking group. Your two linebackers are Jack Campbell

699
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: from Iowa and Henry Toto from from Alabama. Your corners

700
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: you got two hulking big corners and Joey Porter and

701
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: Deontay Banks. And then your nickel is Clark Phillips out

702
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: of Utah, who's a playmaker. And then your safeties are

703
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: Gyre Brown and Jail Skinner. So Jyre Brown, you go.

704
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: You know, great player. Didn't run as well Jail Skinner huge.

705
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 1: I don't think he ever tested. I don't think he

706
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: ever ran. I don't think he was healthy. I don't

707
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 1: think we have a forty time. I was just yeah,

708
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 1: we don't have a forty time on him, but almost

709
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: he's almost six foot four, two hundred and nine pounds. Yeah,

710
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,439
Speaker 1: he had ankle and a peck injury, so he didn't

711
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 1: get a chance to work out. But that's your squad there, Buck.

712
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: What do you like, what are you you know, what

713
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: are your concerns here with your squad? Well, the concerns

714
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: would be in the back end, just to speed at safety.

715
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: Even though I can sit here and tell you that

716
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: we're committed to being more at a zone team, more

717
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: of a Tampa two team, because we're gonna really rely

718
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: heavily on the front to create the pressure, much like

719
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles had been able to do. I do

720
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: worry about a little bit of the speed and playmaking

721
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: in the back end with Skinner up front, I love,

722
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: I love the front. I'm not gonna lie. I love

723
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,959
Speaker 1: I love being able to get after it with four,

724
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 1: we talked about the best way to play defense. If

725
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: you can rush for and drop seven, it gives you

726
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: an opportunity to have maximum coverage. And if your guys

727
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 1: can win up front, you can really control it. And

728
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: so when you think about the front line, when McDonald,

729
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: you have Colligi cancer, you have it's Tyree Wilson on

730
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: the other side of those guys are able to win

731
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 1: one on ones because Jalen Carter is going to command

732
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: a double team, and so just upfront being able to

733
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: control the trenches. That was the emphasis in the focus.

734
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: I like it my group. I've got Will Anderson and

735
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: Nolan Smith off the edges. I fudged a little bit

736
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 1: to put vaness Is kind of my three technique a

737
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: little undersized, and then put big Mozzi Smith from Michigan

738
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: next to him kind of eat up some of those blocks.

739
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: At linebackers, I've got Trenton Simpson and Drew Sanders, two

740
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 1: really athletic guys that can both rush as well as

741
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: the cover. I've got a corner package or a combination

742
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: of Devin Witherspoon and Christian Gonzalez the top corners for me.

743
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: And then I've got Brian branchon the nickel. And then

744
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: at safety, I've got Sidney Brown from Illinois and I've

745
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: got Jordan Battle from Alabama. So two solid players in

746
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 1: a in a safety class that I don't really love.

747
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 1: So that would be probably the area that I like,

748
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 1: don't love. But that's the that's the pool of players

749
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 1: that we have. They're in the safety position. Buck. Yeah,

750
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 1: it's interesting because like the safety position, you know, I

751
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 1: saidn't even think I could have taken maybe Antonio Johnson

752
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 1: from Texas and m as of great he was on

753
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,839
Speaker 1: the board in available, and I had a brain fart

754
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: basically and forgot about him. The position is empty if

755
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a safety, particularly after you took Sydney Brown.

756
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 1: The athletes are not at safety as they are at corner,

757
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 1: and so it'll be interesting to see how these teams

758
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 1: look at the secondary and kind of figure out if

759
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: you need a center field or if you need a

760
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 1: ball hawk, if you need someone that can play the

761
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: deep halves. Who are those guys, because most of the

762
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 1: safeties that we talk about are either star players, meaning

763
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: they play the nickel that hybrid nickel linebacker spot, or

764
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: they're guys that are very very comfortable in the box. Yeah. No,

765
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,240
Speaker 1: it's it's interesting to see the difference in the positions

766
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 1: and where the strength lies and where some positions works

767
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: a little bit shallow and kind of going through these

768
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: exercises the last two days, a couple of things stood

769
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 1: out to me. Number One, if you want, you know,

770
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 1: a big time defensive tackle, you know there's really the

771
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: two guys that have a chance to be real, real

772
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: difference makers. You got both of them with Carter and Kancy.

773
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,759
Speaker 1: I think it drops off a little bit there. You

774
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 1: kind of get a little bit of this, a little

775
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 1: bit of that, but I don't think you get that

776
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: real dynamic player like those two guys are. And then

777
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 1: you look at the you know, the corner position. I

778
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 1: think there's depth. So if you did wait, you'll be

779
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: able to get yeah there. I think when you look

780
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: you look on the offensive sidebuck like those tackles, like

781
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: going through that process and you look at it. To me,

782
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: if you're going to count Skonski as a guard or

783
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: an interior player, there's three tackles and then for me,

784
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: it falls off, not maybe not a cliff, but after

785
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: you know, right Paris Johnson, Broderick Jones, after those three guys,

786
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: to me, that is a steep decline before you get

787
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: to the next group of tackles. So if you need

788
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: a tackle, take one early. You can maybe wait on

789
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: a corner if you need it to and if you want,

790
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 1: if you want one of those defensive tackles, you got

791
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,760
Speaker 1: to get one of those guys early. No, it's funny

792
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: because this excess idea kind of crystallize the strengths and

793
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: weaknesses of the class. And DJ was funny because when

794
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 1: you were rattling off the corners, I wasn't really worried

795
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 1: because I'm like, man, they're like a million corners that

796
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: you can talk about and bring up, from Kaylee Ringol

797
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: to Cam Smith to Manu Ford, Like, there's so many

798
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: corners that you could talk about. So we like the

799
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: depth there even up front with the edge rushers and

800
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: those things, like there are a lot of names that

801
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 1: you could throw out that we didn't even get to.

802
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 1: But you're right at defensive tackle not as much because

803
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: the guys that you mentioned, Jalen Carter and Kalijah Cansie,

804
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,359
Speaker 1: they're the pass rushing into your players the I mean,

805
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: you can talk about the defensive tackles after that. Mosi

806
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 1: Smith is more of a run stopper. You have a

807
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: handful of guys that are more of your run stopper types.

808
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 1: I would say Brian Breezy is a guy that is

809
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 1: more of a bit of a wildcard because you don't

810
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: know which one you're going to get, the guy from

811
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: his freshman year or the guy that showed up the

812
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 1: last two years. So there are some challenges when you

813
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 1: evaluate the class and when you're going to make it.

814
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: And so I believe that we've kind of talked about

815
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: it to me, DJ and this class, they're like fifteen

816
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 1: to eighteen guys that are your blue chippers, that are

817
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: your first rounders that you feel solid about. And then

818
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: after that f picks fifteen to forty five, there's a

819
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: bunch of guys that are good players, really good players,

820
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,479
Speaker 1: not necessarily great players when it comes to like looking

821
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: at in his prospects. Yeah, And to me, even going

822
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: through this helps me to crystallize some thinking, Like if

823
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: I go back in and make some minor tweaks in

824
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: my in my sequence list, like one that I was

825
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,760
Speaker 1: sitting there looking at and I ended up taking Mozzi Smith.

826
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: But man, if you're looking for kind of an all

827
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: around complete player, I'm not so sure that you know,

828
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 1: really looking at it, if I wouldn't take a due

829
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 1: over on that one to take Keanu Benton from from Wisconsin,

830
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: I think he gives you a little more there. So

831
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: that's like an interesting yeah. Yeah. So it's funny when

832
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: when when you talk about those things like DJ because

833
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: I'm going through it, like Friday, I wrote a think

834
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,760
Speaker 1: about polarizing prospects and the ten guys and Missie Smith

835
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 1: was one of those guys because like you see the size,

836
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: you see the freak freakish athleticism, deady brings you don't

837
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 1: necessarily see the production. And then I have this thought

838
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: in my head with Rashan Gary, were you similar? You

839
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: didn't see it? And then in time at Green Bay

840
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: he's become um and also caliber player. Mosi Smith just

841
00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: wonder how is it going to develop for him down

842
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 1: the line. Yeah, no, it's interesting, fun discussion. Man. I

843
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. That exercise is great. You totally screwed me

844
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 1: by taking Jayalen Carter first. That was my whole plan.

845
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: My whole plan was to go Jaalen Carter too. That

846
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,800
Speaker 1: was my whole plan. I don't know how dead that

847
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: one little thing threw off your strategy. I can't I

848
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 1: can't breathe it that you allowed to deadly required to

849
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:50,240
Speaker 1: kind of mess you up. Yeah, totally ruin me. Um,

850
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: all right, that was That was a fun exercise. I

851
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 1: hope you guys enjoyed hanging out with us as we

852
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,200
