Speaker 1: Down at a Steve Castor who has been all over

2
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 1: the fields kind of unique. He was kind of a

00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: dual role fighters for Steve. I'm a lily, Steve a blimp.

4
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:26,680

Speaker 1: All right, gentlemens, start your engines, and ladies. If those

00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 1: videos about a kids sitting there with his family surrounded

10
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: by getting a call from an NFL team and in

11
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: that moment, he's whole, every childhood dream comes true by

12
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 1: getting drafted. If that doesn't, if I engine brings tears

13
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: to my eyes every time. Never, if you don't do that,

14
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: If you don't if it, if that gets older you,

15
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,639
Speaker 1: if that's tried to you or whatever, you got no soul,

16
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: because that is absolutely it is must watch. I'll watch

17
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: all of even the other teams. Kids, you gotta watch them.

18
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: It is just absolutely the best two things that never

19
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: get old watching kids get drafted in front with their

20
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: families all around them, friends, every you know everybody that

21
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: played a part in their upbringing. That's number one. That's

22
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: probably number two. Number one military people coming home to

23
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: their families as a surprise, that's number one. That's number one.

24
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 1: That it's getting drafted number two. Yeah, that's never get

25
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: old old ever, And and it doesn't even matter if

26
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: it's your team. Like this kier Elam video is Yeah,

27
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: I mean I I I tear up every time I

28
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: watch it. It's just the most awesome thing. You think

29
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: last year, the one I remember from last year is

30
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: is Spencer Brown. He's in the garage with all the

31
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: whole neighborhood. Yeah, right, come on, is the table right?

32
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: He can't he has to duck under the garage door

33
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: railing when it opens. It it's the best ever. And

34
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: so it's just that to me is just something uniquely American,

35
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: uniquely American, and I it's just awesome. I mean, even

36
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: you know, even Bills fans can appreciate some kid getting

37
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: drafted by the Jets or the or anybody else, you know, Seahawks, right,

38
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 1: because we you know, it's just somehow, some way we

39
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: can all interject ourselves into it. And I told you

40
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: the story of me, I was in I was in

41
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: a dark for you. I genuinely feel bad for you

42
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 1: that you're cooked up in your own dorm room. It

43
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: was sitting by the phone. It was one of the

44
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: great moments of my life. Are you kidding me? It was?

45
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: I know that. It's just a shame you couldn't share

46
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: it with your family. You know your brothers and you

47
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: know your parents. What though, you never know it was

48
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: and it wasn't gonna happen to me, right, so who

49
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: you know. I had a lot more moments better than

50
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: that one later on, but it was still it was

51
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: still the absolute best. So these these videos that are

52
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: on splattered all over social media from every team, you

53
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: can go out and find them, and it's just it

54
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: is absolutely one of the greatest. It's the it's the

55
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: best part of the NFL Draft, the absolute best part,

56
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: no question about it. I mean, I was did you

57
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: watch you watch the draft? Right? We all watched the draft? Okay,

58
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: I was here, yeah, right, so I was working. You

59
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: get the camera shot from ESPN, the NFL network, and

60
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: it's got just to see of humanity. I mean, it's

61
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: unbelievable in Vegas, right, I mean, they really did. I

62
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: mean there's one hundred thousand people down there right and

63
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there three picks into the draft, and they

64
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: show the crowd shot and I'm going, man, oh man.

65
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 1: Every one of those people right now is thinking, man,

66
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: I wish I was somewhere else. It's like nine hundred

67
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: degrees down there, was it that one? Oh my gosh,

68
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: I thought it was super windy? Oh they're all standing there.

69
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: Only one of the guys that they've been picked in

70
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: the top three are even there, that Hayden Aiden Hutchinson.

71
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: He comes out. The other two guys are someplace else.

72
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, oh, man, this is not that good. So

73
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, start your engines for Day two of

74
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. As we saw a lot go down

75
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: on night one. Nine trades, nine trades. Is that a

76
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: record here? No, it is not a record. I have

77
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: it here. Hold on, I have it here. Nine trades

78
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: is let me see, hold on, where the heck is it?

79
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: That's Draft day trades. It's the first time that six

80
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: wide receivers were drafted in the top twenty ever common

81
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: draft era Steve. Since the twenty twenty NFL Draft, there

82
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: have now been seventeen wide receivers taken in round one

83
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty in the Latin So think about this,

84
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: six wide receivers drafted in the top twenty two wide

85
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 1: receivers traded and acquired. Yeah, that's right. If you don't,

86
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 1: if you're gonna tell me that wide receivers have not

87
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: taken over the National Football League, yeah, I don't believe you.

88
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 1: Listen to this. So here's where. July twenty fifth, twenty twenty.

89
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: So you know, almost two years ago, almost two years

90
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: ago it began. Seattle traded the number and ten pick

91
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: to the New York Jets. Jane thirty, twenty twenty one,

92
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: the Rams trade number thirty two to Detroit. February of

93
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, Indianapolis trades number sixteen to Philly, then

94
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: later San Francisco trades twenty nine to Miami, Miami trades

95
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: number fifteen to Philadelphia, Chicago trades number seven to New

96
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: York Giants, Denver trades number nine to Seattle, Las Vegas

97
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 1: trades number twenty two to Green Bay, Cleveland trades number

98
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: thirteen to Houston, Miami trades number twenty nine to Kansas City,

99
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: Philadelphia trades number sixteen and number nineteen for number eighteen

100
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: with New Orleans. With New Orleans, Washington trades number eleven

101
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: to New Orleans for sixteen. Minnesota trades number twelve to

102
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: Detroit for thirty two. Houston trades number thirteen to Philly

103
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: trades yea four number. Yeah, now we're in a draft night,

104
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: and then Arizona trades twenty basically listen to that. On

105
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: draft night, Arizona trades number twenty three to Baltimore. Baltimore

106
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: trades it to Buffalo for number twenty five. I mean

107
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: this goes on and on. Yeah, So, Steve, essentially what

108
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: happened last night, trades were made of eleven, twelve, and

109
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: thirteen all and and two of them were for receivers,

110
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: that's right. And the third one wasn't The third one

111
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: traded Jordan Davis. Huh. The third one was for Jordan Davis, right,

112
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: And didn't they trade receiver to get him though or

113
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: something like that. That was Philly's trade with Houston. And

114
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: then after that, that's right, Philly got a J. Brown

115
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: and gave pick a team to Tennessee, and a J.

116
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: Brown had a four year, one hundred million dollar contract.

117
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: Ten minutes later. You think there was a phone call

118
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: before the well, unbeknownst to us and everybody else out there, A. J.

119
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: Brown basically had been talking with the Titans, and he

120
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 1: was very public about it. He actually talked to I

121
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: want to say, the Tennessee and the paper down there

122
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: in a story that's out today, and he essentially said,

123
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: I try to negotiate with the Titans. The best offer

124
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: they were willing to give me was nineteen million dollars

125
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: a year with incentives that could push it to twenty

126
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: That's not going to get it done for a number

127
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: one wide out in this league anymore. Not twenty million.

128
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: Twenty million four months ago would have got it done.

129
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,679
Speaker 1: But then the first guy, the first guy to sign

130
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: before free agency was Mike Williams three years, sixty million

131
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: to resign with the Chargers twenty million a year. We thought, wow,

132
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: where's the market going. Then Tyreek Hill gets traded, signs

133
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: a deal for thirty million a year, and the wide

134
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: receiver market gets turned on its ear. The Bills have

135
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 1: to sign digs to an extension at about twenty four

136
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: average annual value. And then we saw other people moved

137
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: to Vante Adams getting twenty five a year. I mean

138
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: it's just it went cuckoo for Coco puffs the wide

139
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: receiver market. So now every other receiver who's in the

140
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: last year of their deal, it's like, hey, they're putting

141
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: her hand out, where's mine? Oh yeah, where's mine? And

142
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: the and the Titans did not want to step up.

143
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 1: They said, we're not paying that, okay, so they trade

144
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 1: it and then they turn around and draft Treylon Burkes,

145
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 1: who is exactly like kJ Brown. Yeah that's not as fast,

146
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: but yes, but he yeah, who knows. But that's what

147
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: you're looking at now, because here's the thing. Yes, wide

148
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: receivers are really expensive and really valuable, and these guys

149
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: like AJ Brown and Tyreek Hill have proven and Mike

150
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: Evans and you could down the list have proven to

151
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: be extremely productive and really good. The Titans ostensibly got

152
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: rid of a guy that's making what's he making twenty

153
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: five million a year for a guy that's going to

154
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: be making three and a half. And he's just saying

155
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: and hopefully, and with all due respect, could probably be

156
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 1: just as good as a J. Brown. Well, they don't

157
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: throw it enough. Right, you're the Titans, and you still

158
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: have Derrick Henry. You can't I understand why they didn't

159
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 1: want to pay a receiver twenty five million dollars a year.

160
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 1: They don't throw the ball up. My question is this

161
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: is the market gonna self correct because teams will say, well,

162
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: listen night, no, i'm gonna draft. I'm gonna draft like

163
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: this kid, the kid Jefferson in Minnesota. I'm gonna trade

164
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs and get Jefferson in Minnesota, which it was

165
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: a great, had a great for a different circumstance. It

166
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: wasn't for money. The point. The point is, though you

167
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,719
Speaker 1: can get another guy just like it. Yes, but I

168
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,079
Speaker 1: disagree the market will not self correct for two reasons.

169
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: Number one, there are always going to be a list

170
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: receivers in this league that teams are gonna be willing

171
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: to pay that kind of money. And number two, the

172
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: salary cap is gonna keep going up, allowing people to

173
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 1: pay crazy money for wide receivers. And then what you're

174
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: going to have in the grand scheme of this league

175
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: is you're gonna have about ten or twelve guys making

176
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: thirty two million dollars a year a wide receiver. Everybody

177
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: else is gonna be on rookie contracts. There will be

178
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: no middle market for wide receivers or a very limited

179
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: will Mark. Well, here's the thing. It might be that

180
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: every team, it's like the old days, every team has

181
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: one guy making it's like thirty two guys making thirty million,

182
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: and then everybody else is gonna be a rookie contract

183
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 1: or a guy. I just worry that it's gonna get

184
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: to a point where it's not going to be sustainable

185
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: for an NFL club to have a franchise quarterback and

186
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: a franchise wide receiver on second contracts. Because here's where

187
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: we're going, Steve, think about the bills. Next year, Josh

188
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: Allen's average contract value goes up into the forties. He's

189
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,480
Speaker 1: like forty three million next year, Stefan Diggs is making

190
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: twenty four. I mean, that's sixty seven million dollars on

191
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: your cap for two guys. That's not sustainable. There's gonna

192
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: be teams that just flat out can't do that. Yeah,

193
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: at least on where they have some of their other money.

194
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to fit it in somehow, some way.

195
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: And here's what's gonna happen. You're gonna have position groups

196
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: like well, i'll tell you where it's gonna happen. Defensive players,

197
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna struggle to make They're gonna struggle to be

198
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: the people you're paying. Or corners and ends. That's exactly right.

199
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: Corners and pass rushing corners and tackles, receivers, quarterbacks, those

200
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: the only people are gonna make money anymore. Right, It's

201
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 1: gonna be like like big time money. Right, It's gonna

202
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: be like pictures in the in the Major League Baseball.

203
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you right now, wide receiver, And we

204
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: talked to Brandon, I talked. I asked Brandon being this

205
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: question on Tuesday when we had him here in studio.

206
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: Wide receiver in terms of its importance on an NFL

207
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: roster is closing the gap on quarterbacks and pass rushers.

208
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: It is unquestionably third on the position priority list, unquestionably third.

209
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: And in terms of average annual salary, it may eclipse

210
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: pass Rusher. I think it's gonna eclipse pass Rusher. I

211
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: mean Tyreek's contract already does that. Yeah, So I don't

212
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: know that anybody else is gonna chase Tyreek because you're

213
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: just getting too much production from Finger quote others. You

214
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Even the bills with Steph Diggs.

215
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean, Cole Beasley, Gabe Davis and those guys are indispensable.

216
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: You can't run your offense without him. Would your offense

217
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: be significantly hindered by like losing a guy like Steph

218
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: Diggs when the draft, like last night, instead of getting

219
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: Kayer Elam, the Bills get a guy like like Pickens,

220
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: George Pickens, who's got all the tools and all that

221
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: stuff going on, a little different receiver, but still one

222
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: of those guys. Right. So that's the problem is maybe

223
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: that the best wide receivers in the league may still

224
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: command that, but because of the glut of supply, maybe

225
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: it will keep a lid on it. Well, I think

226
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 1: what's going to happen is this, the teams that have

227
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: an all world number one wide out, they'll keep that

228
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: guy for the length of whatever the term at the

229
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: contract is, and they'll just keep cycling rookie receivers through

230
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: maybe you know, because they'll say, well, this guy's having

231
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: a great year. Three, we got our number one receiver,

232
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: though for another four years. We're not gonna be able

233
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: to give that guy a second contract based on his production.

234
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: So let's draft one. Now get him in the pipeline,

235
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: and we'll let him go and cycle the next guy

236
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: up and through. Right, it'll be it'll be a question

237
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 1: of how how teams can can work that they're gonna

238
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: have guys as always because this will never change. The

239
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: teams that will be really good or have guys that

240
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: that bust out or have you known unexpected production, will

241
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: be the guys that can out form their contract. Yeah,

242
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: it's hard for a guy like Tyree Kild out perform

243
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: that contract. It's gonna be very hard. But Gabe Davis

244
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: already has. Right, But what's the bill's decision in two years? Right?

245
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: Are you keeping that fond digs at age thirty one

246
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 1: on a fat contract? Right? Or you're gonna pay Gabriel

247
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: Davis Because there's a very good chance you're not gonna

248
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: be able to do both. Right, but you also have

249
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: you have two d as between now and then. Yes,

250
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 1: so start bringing them the pipeline to make that decision easier.

251
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: Perfect segue. We're gonna draft somebody today, Oh you think so? Yeah,

252
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: here is my concern with Here is my concern with

253
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: that premise. Okay, and nobody knows how it's going to

254
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: go tonight. Yeah, here is my concern with that because

255
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: I was trying to think about, you know, the positions

256
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: that could be addressed here on day two, and I

257
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: know a lot of people are in favor of the

258
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: Bills taking a receiver at fifty seven, if not at

259
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: eighty nine. Specifically with pick fifty seven, logic would say, hey,

260
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: six receivers were taken in round one, and two other

261
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: teams acquired veteran receivers. They don't need one now, so

262
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: maybe some value falls to the Bills at the receiver

263
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: position and they can get somebody. Here's the problem. Based

264
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: on a number of top one hundred boards that I've

265
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 1: looked at and my feelings about who's left on the board,

266
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: I would argue there are only about four maybe five

267
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: true second round receivers. I could be wrong. Some teams

268
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: may like some more guys than that, but it's a

269
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: four maybe five receivers in round two tonight that fit value.

270
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: Here's the issue. The Bills are picking fifty seven and

271
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: teams ahead of them that will likely take a really

272
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 1: hard look at wide receiver Houston at thirty seven, Baltimore

273
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: at forty five, Kansas City at fifty, and Green Bay

274
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: at fifty three. Those are four teams in front of

275
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: the bills that could very easily take a wide receiver.

276
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: How you're saying they will. Now here's the guys too,

277
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 1: Skymore Western Michigan, George Pickens in Georgia, Jalen Tolbert South Alabama,

278
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: John Mechi at Alabama. Did you say Christian Watson and

279
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: Christian Watson at North Dakota to State University who Judy

280
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: called in yesterday and was calling for that, Right, he's

281
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: got a chance to be there, although he's a due

282
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: he's too fifty seven. Well that's I just named five

283
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: names and you just had four teams. Yeah, that's that's

284
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 1: the razor thin thing you're looking at, right, and and

285
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: we're not counting trades up for somebody to go scoops

286
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: right now? There are other guys. Uh yeah, round three.

287
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: You know you got an Alec Pierce. But you're looking

288
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 1: at guys speed like you're thinking like this to David Bell,

289
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: hugely productive at Purdue, catches absolutely everything, great route runner,

290
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: but I think Brownie can outrun him. Right, So I'm

291
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 1: not slow? Well I didn't say he was. I'm just

292
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: saying I said I'm not slow, right, Yeah, so I

293
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,199
Speaker 1: might have a chance. Yeah, those are the kind of guy.

294
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: That's what you're giving up now. If the Bills are

295
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: in this on the second round fifty fifty seven, there

296
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: are still guys out there that are more toolsy than

297
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: guys like David Bell from Purdue. But one Dale Robinson Kentucky,

298
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: Like wow, really fact that? But he's like, he's short.

299
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 1: He's like, so, here's the He's also shorter than Brownie.

300
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. What is he? I don't know. I

301
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: don't I don't want to. I don't want to insult

302
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: the guy. Calvin Austin might be, but not Landale Robinson. Right,

303
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: But that's what we're looking at. Here's the thing we

304
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: have to ask ourselves, what do the Bills believe they

305
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: need a wide receiver and they don't need inside guys.

306
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 1: You know you've I mean, could they draft a slot receiver? Sure?

307
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 1: You know, I realized Jamison Crowder is here on a

308
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: one year contract, Isaiah McKenzie's here on a two year deal. Um,

309
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 1: But what they need is depth on the outside because

310
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: it's basically Stefan Diggs Gabriel Davis Hodgens is a slot guy.

311
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: He played in the slot in Oregon states. I'm not

312
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he can't play outside, but you have Kumaro.

313
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: But even when when Kumar gets in the game, you

314
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: know he's almost always in the slot. You know why blocking? Yeah,

315
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: because he's not running a route. So I think you

316
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: have to make the argument here that speed is what

317
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: you need a wide receiver, much like you needed speed

318
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: at corner and they added that last night in the

319
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: form of Kyer Elam. You need speed, you need a

320
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: field stretcher, right, you need a field stretcher. And it's

321
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: gonna be very interesting if and when they do draft

322
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: a wide receiver, the makeup of that prospect and how

323
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: well he fits what the Bills might be looking for

324
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: at that position. There's some good value I think at

325
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: the linebacker position tonight in round two, and you're talking

326
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: about players like Chad Muma from Wyoming, Christian Harris from Alabama,

327
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: Leoshanal from Wisconsin, player I like a lot, Troy Anderson

328
00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: from Montana State. And then you know there's let's not

329
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: forget this, Steve, there's still some cornerback value on the board. Yeah,

330
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,160
Speaker 1: Andrew Booth is still there, Kyler Gordon is still there,

331
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: Roger McCreary is still there. And then Cam Taylor britt

332
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: a safety corner hybrid from the RASCA is still there. Player,

333
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: I like physical player, right, Um, So there's value to

334
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: be had there. And we heard Brandon Bean say it

335
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: last night. If there's a corner there and its value,

336
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: I wouldn't hesitate from taking one, Yeah, exactly. And I

337
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: and I've thought too, and you know, you kind of

338
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: fall into that traps. We got a corner, we're gonna

339
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: we're finished, Um, not so fast, um because for evidence, right,

340
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 1: so we don't we don't know what their draft board

341
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: looks like. But if I was thinking about other positions,

342
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: and I was writing this, that certainly wide receivers where

343
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: I start, Um, and there's a I've got like twelve

344
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: guys here, some of them half of whom will probably

345
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: be available in this and when the Bills pick, although

346
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: I don't know what the Bills think of them, so

347
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't know what they're like. Yeah, so um, other

348
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: spots and this this jumped out at me. I went

349
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: down and looked at it some different websites to see

350
00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 1: if they agreed. There's a couple of guys and and

351
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: I know Bills fans and some and you can. You

352
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: can because I'm just like everybody else. I'm spitballing here,

353
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,959
Speaker 1: but I think you know what they could do is

354
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:15,199
Speaker 1: go after another big dude, either a center guard or

355
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: defensive tackle. And the three, the three defensive tackles I'm

356
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 1: looking at. One is Travis Jones of you Cone, who

357
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: is a giant. He's like six five and a half

358
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty pounds. He's one of those guys

359
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: now and he is. He's tough to move. Now, He's

360
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: not as athletic as Jordan Davis, but he's a big,

361
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: big body. Also, Logan Hall is another one that I like. Now,

362
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: he's not on the list here that we're looking at.

363
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: The reason why is people don't know exactly what he

364
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: is because he's six six two eighty three. Is he

365
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 1: an end? Six six two sixty is what I was

366
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: what I would looking at. This is what last I

367
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: looked at. But yeah, he's a tall, lanky guy, but

368
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:01,439
Speaker 1: he plays he plays down down inside. You know. Uh,

369
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: he's listens a defensive taclic plays a three technique. I

370
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: like that. Perry On Winfree kid Um from Oklahoma. He's

371
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 1: a defense for Darian Matthews, mathist from Alabama. Um Winfrey

372
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: had a nice week at the Senior Bowl. I believe

373
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: he was defensive MVP of the Senior Bowl Game, So

374
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 1: you've really turned it on. He's like a two ninety

375
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 1: five pound guy. He's got a weird body for a

376
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: defensive taclic It don't look like your normal defensive tackle.

377
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 1: He's kind of got a longer trunk. Um, but he's violent. Man.

378
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: I like him. There's a but there's a ton of

379
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: guys there, and then you get over any other position

380
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: group like the center slash guard spot. Um. The one

381
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: that's really there that I'm kind of thinking about is

382
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: Cam Jurgen's from Nebraska, former tight end right who moved

383
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 1: to center, and he's super athletic. Yeah, super athletic, real

384
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: fluid in his motion. You want somebody out in front

385
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: of his scrum, go watch his tape. He's like twenty

386
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 1: five yards down the field right, so he can he

387
00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: can scoot. Uh Ryman from Central Michigan you can. You know.

388
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: I notice too, you get a lot of guys from

389
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 1: the MAC that are really good offensive lineman, you know

390
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: what I mean. Raymond is the kid who is he

391
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: was born and raised in Austria, and so the general

392
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: thought there is still learning with the techniques and such,

393
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: but a player that's got a future in the league

394
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: for sure. Nicholas petite Frere is a kid whose family's

395
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: from the Caribbean and big, tall, long left tackle played

396
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: at Ohio State. I think it's two year starter. Feet

397
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: are good enough. I'm thinking long, but I'm thinking the

398
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: Bills are not. I don't think in the market for

399
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: a tackle. I think it's guys like Cameron Jurgens. I

400
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: think it's Sean Dylan Parham. Ryan's an interest those kind

401
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 1: of guys. Ryan's an interesting player. He's one of those

402
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 1: guys who's thick from the top of his head to

403
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 1: through his ankles. Right, he's got like cankles um But

404
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: even though that's his body type, he can move. He

405
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: actually played left tackle for them last year and has

406
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: played all the way up and down the line, but

407
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: he projects to guard because he's got shorter arms. I

408
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: liked him a lot. I was thinking, I was thinking

409
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: interior offensive line, center guard because just out of a

410
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 1: quality depth and you know, you got saffled on a

411
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: one year deal. Bates just signed to a two year

412
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: deal or three year deal, and you want to have

413
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: a guy there that's at least being groomed for it.

414
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: Morris will be thirty twenty nine, twenty nine, he'll be

415
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,919
Speaker 1: I don't know what, thirty two when he's done with

416
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,919
Speaker 1: his contract. He just signed an extension, right, so whatever

417
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: that is, he's gonna be in his early thirty. But

418
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 1: this might that's I don't know, that's me spitball, interior

419
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 1: offensive line or defensive tackle other than wide receiver. I

420
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 1: saw some Bills fans tweeting about safety value, and you know,

421
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: there are some safeties in round two that makes sense.

422
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: You know, Jalen Petrie from Baylor, nice player, Jaquon Brisker

423
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: who I like, good safety at Penn State. Those guys

424
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: are expected to come off the boarding round too. But

425
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: here's the thing that I think people are forgetting. The

426
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: Bills already have young safeties in the pipeline. Jaquon Johnson,

427
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: who was a six round pick a couple of years ago,

428
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 1: and DeMar Hamlin, who was a sixth round pick last year.

429
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: I know for a fact the Bills defensive staff likes

430
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: DeMar Hamlin a lot. So I don't know that the

431
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: Bills need to go diving into the draft for safety depth.

432
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: They have it already, guys that have been in the

433
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: system for a year or two. So I know people

434
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: are worried about, you know, where this Jordan poy are

435
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,479
Speaker 1: asking for more money thing is going to end up.

436
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: But they've got guys in the pipeline. So I wouldn't

437
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: be terribly worried or concerned that the Bills now have

438
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: to go back in the draft and find more safety help.

439
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 1: They have it on their roster already. And I didn't

440
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: even mention Josh Thomas, the undrafted kid from app State

441
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: from two years ago, who like also like a lot,

442
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: who's been on the practice squad the last two years,

443
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: really good athlete. So um, they have guys here already

444
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: on board that know the system. They've got some depth already,

445
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 1: and and and depth with some high hopes attached to it. Yeah, um, yeah,

446
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 1: safety is a possibly, But I don't think there's anybody,

447
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 1: and not even on this second, at this high in

448
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: the draft, that would step in and give them any

449
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 1: more than what they're asking for from, you know, from

450
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: the guys they've got on the run. I like your

451
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: guard thoughts. I just think I don't know why I'm

452
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: thinking round three for that that may be. And I

453
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: say this, I think the value there's about there's five

454
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: guys at the top of this wide receiver class that

455
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: are still on the board that to me are all

456
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: more important than either Bryce Bruce Hall or Kevin Walker,

457
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker the third either one of those top running backs.

458
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: I still think they're at least five wideouts on the

459
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: board that are better than those guys. Just a matter

460
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: of whether one of them is gonna fall to you.

461
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: If I don't know if those guys will, then it

462
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: starts to be a question mark for me is whether

463
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: there is another wide receiver who's better than the two

464
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: running back here's the hope with that. Okay, you only

465
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: had one quarterback go off the board yesterday. Watch the

466
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: race your quarterback talent here. Yeah, I think as many

467
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: as four quarterbacks were going round two tonight. That obviously

468
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 1: will push things down the board teams to look at

469
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 1: for that. Seattle has picks forty and forty one. Watch

470
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: them make a move up for the quarterback they want tonight,

471
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 1: forty and forty one Seattle picks. They watch them move

472
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: up to the top of the board tonight to try

473
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: to get the guy that they want. They could go

474
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 1: all the way up to either yeah, right the top,

475
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 1: they could go to Jacksonville, Minnesota, or Tennessee. Right at

476
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: the top of this ye watch them make a move

477
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: to try to get to the top of the board

478
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: before the night starts, so they ensure they get the

479
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,560
Speaker 1: quarterback that they want. They want to get ahead of

480
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: probably Houston. Maybe, I don't know, it's hard to tell

481
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: what they Davis Mills is that. I don't know. I

482
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: feel like they want to give him another year, and

483
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 1: I don't know that this year's class excites them enough.

484
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 1: I think they go another year with David. When you're

485
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: talking about this stuff, I mean, what other team Carolina

486
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: is the only other Tennessee. Well, yeah, because after this year,

487
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: Tannehill's contract gets stupid and he's probably done. And now

488
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: with A J. Brown not there, you're probably very close

489
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,239
Speaker 1: to rebuilding mode. Well, if you get the guy on

490
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: board that can learn the system and start to get acclimated,

491
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: then I think Tennessee is a possibility. Absolutely. Seattle. They're

492
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 1: the third pick of this draft, so Seattle's got to

493
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: get ahead of them. Seattle's got to jump up to

494
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: thirty four Minnesota or thirty three Jacksonville, and that means

495
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: given up probably eight or forty and forty one picks.

496
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: And the reason that's good news for the Bills is

497
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: if you have four quarterbacks go before the Bills, that's

498
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: pushing all that other talent down, like receiver and other stuff.

499
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: So hopefully that takes place for the Bill's sake tonight.

500
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: But even so, Jacksonville could drop down to twenty eight,

501
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: twenty nine or third I'm sorry, forty forty one and

502
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: take a wide out. Yeah they could. But they just

503
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 1: signed Christian Kirk the gigantic money in free agency rookie contracts. Well,

504
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: it was gigantic money at the beginning of here, five years,

505
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: seventy two million. I was like for Christian Kirk, but now, heck,

506
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: it doesn't look so ridiculous. Yeah, it doesn't look like

507
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: a ridiculous contract. And they have other young players there.

508
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: I know they lost DJ Chark, who I believes in

509
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 1: Detroit now. But yeah, so there's a lot of intrigue

510
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: with how the board falls tonight, for sure, which is

511
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: why we are asking you what's your reaction to the

512
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: Bill's first round pick from last night, kayyear Elam, and

513
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: what's on your wish list for tonight? We've got callers

514
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: on the line at eight oh three five fifty one

515
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: fifty two, five fifty. There are a couple of open

516
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: lines for you there as well. For those of you waiting,

517
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: Hang tight. We do have to take a break here,

518
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: but we're right to the phone calls when we return

519
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: here on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalada Health, It's

520
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, ladies in germs. As we

521
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: get ready for night two, we remind you that for

522
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: the second straight season, Tasker Damas has struck and told

523
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: you what was going to happen on Night one of

524
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. Here is Stephen a tasker on One

525
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: Bills Live at approximately two fifty pm on Thursday. I

526
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: think it's going to be Kayer Elam elite traits and

527
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: he can play in certain situations right right off the bus.

528
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: That's all you need to know. That's why you listen

529
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: to this show people, this is why you listen to

530
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: the show. Last year, at this time, Tasker Damas said

531
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: the Bills will take defensive and Greg Russell with the

532
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: thirtieth pick, do you know how hard it is to

533
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: peg the thirtieth pick in a draft or the twenty

534
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: fifth or in this case, twenty third pick in the draft.

535
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: Tasker Damas two years running, tune in next year at

536
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: this team to see if he makes it a trifecta.

537
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: Don't don't kid yourself. Folks out there listening. I demanded

538
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: that they play that so because I'm I'm not right

539
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: so long we would have played it anyway. That is.

540
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: That's rare that far down the board to call it

541
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: two years in a roast. I just got a bravo

542
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: to you man. Well, bravo to you, Tasker Damas. We

543
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: should have a T shirt made up. Tasker Damas. Listen.

544
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 1: The way it got there has nothing to do with

545
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: me knowing anything. I mean, I well, come on, you

546
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: got But it's not like we're playing golf and he's

547
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: like spitting this stuff out to me. I mean, I

548
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: don't know, but we talk about it all the time

549
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: and sometimes, um, I don't know. Maybe I I get

550
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: an instant, maybe I know here's the thing I caught

551
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 1: myself doing. I'm like, you know what, let's not overthink this.

552
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: We gotta get it. We gotta get a guy yep,

553
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: and that's really the only guy that there's a question mark.

554
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: We both went with that position. I mean we both

555
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: went with a player with the lead athletic trades. You

556
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: went with Kayer Elam. I went with Jackson Hill, who

557
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: went a short time later. Yeah. Um, you know, guys

558
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: with speed. I think speed is a higher priority for

559
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: the Bills with the people that are going to be

560
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: drafting at the skill positions this year, both offense and defense.

561
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: And we saw that last night with Kayer Elam. But

562
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: let's get to the phones at eight O three five

563
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: fifty one eight eight five fifty two five fifty your

564
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: reaction to last night's round one pick and what you're

565
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: hoping for tonight with rounds two and round three. We

566
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: lead off today with John and Buffalo. What do you

567
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: got first? John? Hey, guys, I'm trying to understand what

568
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: happened last night. Okay, how do we allow Kansas City

569
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: to jump with eight takes ahead of us and the

570
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: best cornerback on the board, and then we turned around

571
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: and trade a fourth thrown pick to move up two

572
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: spots for no apparent reason. Dallas wasn't taking a cornerback

573
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: and either it was Baltimore, they wouldn't have traded it.

574
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: I was branding and staff sleeping or what happened. Well,

575
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,960
Speaker 1: I understand the argument because you're not the first person

576
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: to say, why did they feel they needed to trade up.

577
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: I think they wanted to ensure they got their guy.

578
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: That's how Brandon explained it. They had one guy left

579
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: with a round one draft grate, and there was always

580
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: and that was Kayer Elam. There's always a chance that

581
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: Dallas would have gotten him. If if and I don't

582
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: know this, but they're not taking a car. If you

583
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: saw Dallas's look, when did Buffalo pick Kayer Elam? I

584
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: don't know whether it was a result of that or what,

585
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: but they looked they looked they looked like somebody stole

586
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: their dog. But I don't know if they were even

587
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: thinking about Kayer. I don't think they were thinking. I

588
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: think the Bills didn't want to take that chance. Now,

589
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 1: as far as letting the Chiefs jump ahead of him,

590
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: the Bills couldn't jump up as high as the Chiefs.

591
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: Good because the Chiefs had more draft capital. They had

592
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: more draft picks than anybody else in the league except

593
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: the Jets, so they could they could afford to jump

594
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 1: higher than the Bills could, and the way the Bills

595
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: board fell, the last guy available that the Bills thought

596
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: they could take and still be okay with in the

597
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: first round was Kayer Elam, So they had no problem

598
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: given up a was a fourth rounder and this and

599
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth pick to jump up two spots. Um,

600
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with it because I the

601
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: guy can really go. The guy is an absolute stud here.

602
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 1: And I'll just pose this to John, because he's already

603
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: hopped off here. I'll just pose this to you, John.

604
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: Would you rather have a general manager that's aggressive and

605
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: make sure he gets the guy he feels they need

606
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:50,919
Speaker 1: for their team? Or would you rather have a guy

607
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: sit and wait miss out on the guy? And then

608
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: where how do you feel about today? Because because if

609
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: if they don't get that guy, I'm telling you right

610
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: now what Brandon Bean's doing, He's going the other way.

611
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: He's trading out. So you'd be sitting here today without anybody.

612
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: So how would you feel if the Bills traded out

613
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: of round one and don't have a cornerback? That's the

614
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,919
Speaker 1: question you have to ask yourself, John, and see which

615
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: one you're happier with because they can't take that chance. Yes,

616
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: we can say now that the Cowboys weren't going to

617
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: draft a corner, and I'm pretty confident they would not have. Okay,

618
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: they have other more pressing needs on their offensive line.

619
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: Baltimore had already taken a safety. So but I guess

620
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 1: what the risk is is some other team jumps up

621
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: there because they have a similar board to the Bills

622
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: and they know that kayr Elam is the only other

623
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: first round corner worth his salt, and they might leap

624
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: frog the Bills, knowing the Bills need a corner, do

625
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: a trade with Dallas, take kayre Elam off the board,

626
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: A twenty four and now you're standing there with no

627
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 1: dance parts twenty conversation too, where somebody thought that it

628
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: was possible that somebody else was trying to do the

629
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 1: exact same thing the Bills were doing and the Bills

630
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: had a better off, and you don't know what or not.

631
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: But here's the thing as well, you're not And I

632
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: get your point, like the Chiefs are doing this, and

633
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs listen, we're not playing the Chiefs today or yesterday.

634
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,919
Speaker 1: You're trying to get the best player you can get

635
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: with the with the capitol you have, so you can't

636
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: worry about what other teams are doing in the draft

637
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 1: unless they're trying to get to the same spot. You

638
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: are the same guy you are. If it is face it,

639
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: if the Chiefs wanted to jump higher than the Bills,

640
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: and that's there's nothing the Bills can do about it. Yeah,

641
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,400
Speaker 1: and that's what the Chiefs did. They jumped from what

642
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: was it, twenty nine to twenty one. The Bills would

643
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: have to give up four picks to do that. Not

644
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: to mention the fact that the Patriots to twenty one

645
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 1: are not helping the Bills out to move up to

646
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: their spot twenty one, pat not doing it with Yeah,

647
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 1: the Patriots wouldn't trade the Bills for that, or maybe

648
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: they would have. I doubted, but here you go. You're

649
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: you're sitting there, but you're not putting you know, just

650
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 1: because the Chiefs are doing this and some Bills fans

651
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: have their their guts in an over anything that the

652
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 1: Chiefs do. Because they've beaten us in the playoffs two

653
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: years in a row. It doesn't matter what the Chiefs did.

654
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 1: This about this about us, this about the Bills, and

655
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: you're trying to get the guys. You need to make

656
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: your team as good as it can be. Chiefs are not,

657
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: So it doesn't matter who jumped up ahead of you,

658
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 1: because they're doing their thing and you can't control it.

659
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 1: You may not even know about it until after the fact.

660
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: So you got to do your thing, which is what

661
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: the Bills did. And I would say this too once

662
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 1: they took Trent McDuffie. There's a genuine concern that a

663
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 1: cornerback run is starting. And if you're at twenty five

664
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 1: and the cornerback runs started at twenty one, and you

665
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 1: got one guy left on your board that's worth a

666
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: first round grade a corner, you better get moving. And

667
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: that's what Brandon Bean did and you and he's not

668
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: the only one that did that last night. Because look

669
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: at what happened at pick ten or pick pick eleven

670
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 1: or to pick ten, Jets take Garrett Wilson wide receiver.

671
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: Two other teams trade it up to within two picks

672
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 1: of pick ten. Why because they thought a wide receiver

673
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: run was starting and they wanted to be a part

674
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: of it. New Orleans jumps up there. They take Chris

675
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 1: Lave with the very next pick. Detroit trades up from

676
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: thirty two twenty spots to get Jamison Williams. So Brandon

677
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: Bean is not alone and being aggressive when you sense

678
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: the run is starting and you know you're not in

679
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: a position to get the last guy that you think's

680
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 1: worth is worth the grade on the board. So I'd

681
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: rather have my general manager be aggressive and go get

682
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,800
Speaker 1: the guy he wants rather than sit and wait and hope.

683
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 1: Here's what you're looking at too. You got twenty three

684
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,439
Speaker 1: pick ins to the twenty five pick. Do we really

685
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: care where they got it? If they got the right guy,

686
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 1: who cares where pick they got it at? Now, what

687
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: you do care about is the fourth rounder who's up there?

688
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: At the fourth rounder that we're all sitting there going,

689
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna miss out on that guy. Well, we'll see, right,

690
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 1: that remains to be seen. We'll see. But if you

691
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: got the guy that's gonna you're gonna plug him into

692
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 1: the CB two spot. And already there are other analysts

693
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: around them. The high the end, the high end of

694
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:11,919
Speaker 1: kayre Elam is cornerback one plugmant. He's the guy that's

695
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 1: his top end. He's a like Trey White. And if

696
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 1: you got that guy, nobody cares. Yeah, nobody cares. Let's

697
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: go back to the phones and we go to Joanne

698
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 1: and Buffalo next. What do you have for us? Joanne? Hi?

699
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: How are you good? What I want to know is, um,

700
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 1: I waited all night for that pick. I was so excited,

701
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: and when they call his name, they didn't give him

702
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 1: any accolades at all. They didn't show his picture, they

703
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: didn't show his family, and they just like blew Buffalo off.

704
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 1: I am totally Joanne, I am totally on board with that.

705
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: I kyre Elam. Now, he was not in Vegas. Okay,

706
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 1: some of the picks weren't. They didn't have a camera

707
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 1: in his spot, they didn't have anything in his spot. Um,

708
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 1: we didn't to hear from him. We didn't see highlights nothing.

709
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: I was like, way, wait a minute, yeah, I'm talking now,

710
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: which feed were you watching? Were you watching NFL network? Okay?

711
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: Maddie and I were getting to work when the pick

712
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: was made, so I wasn't really paying attention to what

713
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: the coverage was on Elam on the TV because we

714
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: were going on set to do our live stream rum

715
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: on the Bill's YouTube channel after the pick was made

716
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: with Greg co Sale and then Brandon Bean, Um, that's surprising.

717
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,479
Speaker 1: They didn't have a they don't have footage on well,

718
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,360
Speaker 1: they may not have had a camera at his house.

719
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 1: They didn't. They had uh, they had footage and highlights.

720
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: They had like two They gave him like two maybe

721
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: two plays highlights and that was it and they were

722
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: like gone. Now. I will say this, sometimes, based on

723
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: the television breaks, some of the draft picks in around

724
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: one get less coverage than the others. And so I

725
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 1: can't even recall whether they were coming back from break

726
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: watching Roger do it now we're still talking about. Yeah,

727
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: I mean, they did make a trade up that shouldn't

728
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: catch the television network off guard. That happens all the time. Heck,

729
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: it happened five times already. The Bills were the six

730
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: of nine trades in the round one. So yeah, I

731
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't have an answer for you, Joanne.

732
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: That's very interesting. I mean they ran highlights of him

733
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: and all of that stuff. Yeah, and they gave him

734
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: a quick the guys, the analysts, like, they gave him

735
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: a quick little say, hey, here's what this guy's all about.

736
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 1: And they showed some highlights and it and then they

737
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,720
Speaker 1: were good highlights as we've all seen. They talked about

738
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: how he is a guy who is a lockdown corner,

739
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:41,760
Speaker 1: huge upside athletically and you know all of this everything

740
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 1: you can say. So yeah, but then that was it.

741
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: We didn't get a live shot of him that I

742
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: think that's what we're missing, a live shot of Kaier

743
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,879
Speaker 1: Elam he was And we started the show with it today, Yeah,

00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 1: to pass along and thank you to Rachel's Mediterranean Grill

760
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 1: for providing us with sustenance on what is a long

761
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: three days for us. Here at one Bill's Drive dropped

762
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 1: off lunch for us today. That was huge. Yeah, it

763
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,320
Speaker 1: was very absolutely huge. I am currently mowing down pea

764
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: chips like a like a beaver on a tree and

765
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: hummus A good. Yeah. They had chicken wrap, steak wraps,

766
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 1: big big Greek salad. How good is that for lunch?

767
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: I would argue that pea chips are Greek food's answer

768
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:24,120
Speaker 1: to nachos. You know what I mean? Yeah, exactly, yeah,

769
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,520
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, you don't even need to put anything

770
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 1: on them, although they gave us like a I'm burping

771
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: through the entire segment. That's up, belchy. I know it's

772
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: so bad, but I can't help it. I'm just I'm

773
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 1: eating foodie. Steve. Remember after a night like we had

774
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: last night, you're up late, you know, Well, I'm telling

775
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: you we're all short on sleep at this point. But

776
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 1: the last thing I was thinking about getting ready for

777
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 1: work today was what am I bringing for lunch? Because

778
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm usually a brown bad guy, Like, yeah, I'm a

779
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 1: brown bad guy, so I'm always bringing my lunching. Today

780
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: I was just like, I don't even want to think

781
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: about it, and thankfully I totally forgot coming in right

789
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: long weekend. Let's go back to the phones, though, and

790
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: we go to Bob and Amhurst next. What you got first? Bob, Hello, gentlemen, Um,

791
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,879
Speaker 1: I have two things. First of all, Brownie, Brownie, tell

792
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 1: me that you saw Sean mcvay's interview. Oh, we did,

793
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: We've got it. We will. We'll be playing that in

794
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: the second hour of the show, along with Patriots fans

795
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 1: and Patriots reporters reactions to their pick of a guard

796
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: that some people feel is not even a seground selection Tennessee, Chattanooga. Yeah,

797
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: so stay tuned for that. Because we'll be backing that.

798
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 1: You can mark my, we're gonna be throwing that up

799
00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 1: because it is for Bills fans, deliciou. It is absolutely savory. Yeah,

800
00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: you'll love it. You love it when when they're picking

801
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,440
Speaker 1: on when they're picking on New England and Buffalo's got

802
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 1: no blood. Yeah right, we've got no skin in the game.

803
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: It's just them just commiserating, fumbling all over them. Oh great, Yes,

804
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,240
Speaker 1: it is the sweet nectar of what else you got, fans? Okay,

805
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: the other thing, um, I'm just thinking about it. In

806
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,879
Speaker 1: the beginning of the show, you were talking about how

807
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: the quarterback and the edge rusher and the wide receiver

808
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: are taking the bulk of the money. How soon before

809
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:39,839
Speaker 1: the colleges or or the pros figure out that it's

810
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: the cornerbacks now that have to cover these wide receivers.

811
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: And when do they become the the next people, you know,

812
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: like Drell read that's back in the day. I mean,

813
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 1: you know, when do they become the when do they

814
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 1: get their money? And well, and they already kind of

815
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: are making that money. By not i mean their their

816
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: market didn't vault into the stratosphere the way the receiver

817
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,919
Speaker 1: market did. This offseason. But if you recall not too

818
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: long ago, their money went up precipitously when the Carolina

819
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 1: Panthers rescinded the franchise tag off of Josh Norman because

820
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 1: they didn't want to pay him on a one year

821
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 1: deal and couldn't agree on a contract extension. They rescind

822
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: the franchise tag and Washington swoops in and signed him

823
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: to a fifteen million dollars a year contract, which at

824
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: that time was about four to five million higher than

825
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,640
Speaker 1: the highest paid guy in the league. So they turned

826
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: the cornerback market on their ear about six seven years ago.

827
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: And then it was Jalen Ramsey to the Rams and

828
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 1: that you know, and Steph Gilmore and of course then

829
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 1: it was Darrell Reevas signed a one year deal. So

830
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,239
Speaker 1: they're they're up there, but it's never been more than

831
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 1: maybe two or three, got one or two guys at

832
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,760
Speaker 1: a time. Now, you're right. I think I think you're right, Bob,

833
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 1: that there's going to be more and more guys making them.

834
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:07,399
Speaker 1: You know, even on the bills trade is making seventeen yeah,

835
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: and that's not making thirty though, no he's not. And

836
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,880
Speaker 1: I'll say this too for the lower levels of football.

837
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: It's harder to play dB at corner than it is

838
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: play wide receiver because all the rules are against you. Yeah,

839
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: and you're out there by yourself, and they can they

840
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 1: can get a matchup that is unfavorable for you whenever

841
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: they want it, just with shifts in motion. So it's

842
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 1: hard to play. It's harder to play dB and wide receiver.

843
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,359
Speaker 1: And the reason I say that is because kids got

844
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 1: to choose a spot. So let me ask you this.

845
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 1: We see this endless supply of receivers every year, which

846
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: should conceivably help NFL clubs keep their costs down at

847
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: the position, because anytime someone becomes too cost prohibitive, you

848
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 1: trade them and you draft another one. That's what Tennessee

849
00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:56,200
Speaker 1: did last night, traded AJ Brown, drafted Traylon Burke's come

850
00:47:56,239 --> 00:48:01,239
Speaker 1: on down. But because of what you just said, the

851
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: rules are slanted towards the offense in terms of how

852
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,200
Speaker 1: this game is officiated and played. I wonder if more

853
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 1: GM's just say, well, who am I going to pay

854
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,320
Speaker 1: the guy that it's easier for to succeed or the

855
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,920
Speaker 1: guy that's harder for to succeed. But I think I

856
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: think GM's will come out down on both sides of

857
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,440
Speaker 1: that fence, because on the one hand, you say, this

858
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 1: guy's got a good chance to succeed, it's gonna make

859
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: me look like it's worth paying this guy money. But

860
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: on the other hand, if I can find one of

861
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: those corners that can still win despite the rules, I

862
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,439
Speaker 1: should pay that guy because they're hard to find. Well,

863
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 1: they're rare. Everybody's gonna roll out three wides and they're

864
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 1: gonna be pretty good ones because of the depth of

865
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 1: the position around the league and the guy's coming out

866
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:51,320
Speaker 1: on the draft. There's not that many corners. This draft alone,

867
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: you got like, you got what twelve thirteen wideouts who

868
00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 1: are going to step on the field and contribute in

869
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: a big way on the off and the side of

870
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: the field. You got you know what, it was six

871
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 1: of them in the first round. No, um, we just

872
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:11,319
Speaker 1: said it was like the receivers. Yeah, receivers six two

873
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: moved by so six in the first round. There were

874
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: only four corners before. There was a precipitous drop off,

875
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,840
Speaker 1: you know, And it's like, and watch tonight, what are

876
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:23,879
Speaker 1: you gonna do. You're gonna watch three or four more

877
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 1: receivers going there, And I'll say, what if you're a

878
00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: young kid coming up to play, it's like, do you

879
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: want to be the easy way and make a lot

880
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 1: of money and catch the ball and score touchdowns? Or

881
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: do you want to be a dB that's always in

882
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: the back of the end zone going like like we

883
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 1: just got checking for rain, just got I just got

884
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 1: beat sooner or later. They're all, I mean, all the

885
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: great ones. Revas, it happened to Revas, it happened to

886
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, it happened to happens to Jalen Ramsey. All

887
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: of them get smoked. None of these, you know, none

888
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: of young kids weren't like I'll no, I'd rather be

889
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: the guy dancing in the end zone rather than the

890
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,880
Speaker 1: one walking back to the bench. Yeah, doing the gritty

891
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: or whatever. Yeah, I get it. Um, we have to

892
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 1: break here. When we come though, we'll be checking in

893
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 1: with the one and only Greg Cosell from NFL Films.

894
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: He will help us break down kier Elam and maybe

895
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:10,880
Speaker 1: even help us take a look at where the value

896
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: might be in round two tonight in terms of who's

897
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 1: still out there on the board. I know he's a big,

898
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: big fan of a certain Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver talked

899
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,880
Speaker 1: to him about that as well. Coming on next on

900
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 1: one Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

901
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 1: At a Steve Tasker who has been all over the fields,

902
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,279
Speaker 1: kind of unique. He was kind of a dual role

903
00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:56,719
Speaker 1: player for you, Steve, Steve a blimp. We're not even

904

Speaker 1: three after trading up with the Baltimore Ravens is senior

910
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:26,360
Speaker 1: producer from NFL Films, Greg Cosell, and Greg, I know

911
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 1: you were on with Manny and I last night on

912
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: our draft stream after the pick was made, and we

913
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,279
Speaker 1: did not know it at the time, but now we do.

914
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 1: You know, Steve and I were debating do the Bills

915
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: go for elite physical traits with a guy like kier

916
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:45,400
Speaker 1: Elam or do they go with a scheme fit like

917
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 1: Andrew Booth If both are on the board. Both were

918
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:53,919
Speaker 1: on the board, they went elite physical traits, So why

919
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:56,680
Speaker 1: do you think Booth slipped all the way out of

920
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: the first round. I know you might not know what

921
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: everybody's thinking there, but because he didn't time maybe and

922
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,879
Speaker 1: there was no time on him I saw there isn't

923
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 1: because he got hurt. Yeah, you know. It's it's funny

924
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 1: you asked me that, Chris, because I actually had done

925
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,880
Speaker 1: Booth earlier and then redid him and went back and

926
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,920
Speaker 1: watched some other stuff, so I really got a pretty

927
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 1: detailed view of Booth, and I only finished that actually yesterday.

928
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: And it's funny that you would ask me that. Because

929
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:27,399
Speaker 1: Booth I thought had some issues that I'm not saying

930
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 1: we'll prevent him from being a good player, but I

931
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:36,720
Speaker 1: think that Elam overall is has far more traits than Booth.

932
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: Booth had some concerns that showed up in multiple games.

933
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 1: He was a little slow with his transitions. He almost

934
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 1: seemed to have a segmented feel to his movement at times.

935
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: There were other times he looked very good, but I

936
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: thought that when he had to stop in off coverage

937
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 1: and plan and react forward, he was a little sticky

938
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,120
Speaker 1: and segmented. It also showed up at times when he

939
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:04,879
Speaker 1: had had to open his hips and turn and run

940
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 1: with vertical routes. So I don't know if these were

941
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,640
Speaker 1: the reasons that he dropped out of the first round.

942
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: I can only tell you from watching six full games

943
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 1: of tape on Andrew Booth that I started to notice

944
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,919
Speaker 1: these things. And even though he's super competitive and does

945
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 1: have man's own scheme versatility, I think there are some

946
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:26,480
Speaker 1: things that need to be worked through. And I think

947
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: Elam overall was the better prospect, and that's because of

948
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:35,399
Speaker 1: his high you know, because of his ceiling. Right well,

949
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 1: Steve to me, you know, you're dealing with a guy

950
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 1: that's over six to one. He's ran a really good forty.

951
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: He has really high level press man traits. That's his game.

952
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 1: He's long, he's athletic. He did play some some slot

953
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,480
Speaker 1: as well toward the end of this season, so theoretically

954
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 1: he could play in the slot. But he's got the

955
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 1: profile that you really look for in an NFL corner size, length, athleticism, speed, competitiveness,

956
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 1: ability to play press. You know, everybody just automatically assumes,

957
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 1: of course, you guys, don't you're there, that are the bills.

958
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,319
Speaker 1: They just play his own. Well, that's been kind of

959
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,640
Speaker 1: less and less true over the last couple of years.

960
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,600
Speaker 1: Of course they play his own but there was a

961
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:22,839
Speaker 1: sense I think with Leslie and Sean, you know, going

962
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 1: back three four years and oh this is his own team.

963
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 1: They play a lot of man coverage, and more teams

964
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 1: play man coverage for any number of different reasons. But

965
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 1: Elam has great traits to play press man. The one

966
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 1: thing that I don't think we covered yesterday was he

967
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,400
Speaker 1: is a physical hitter. He likes to bring the war

968
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,960
Speaker 1: on the hits. Now he do, he does miss at times,

969
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 1: and Brandon Bean did even say that his tackling technique,

970
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 1: that's an area where they're going to have to work

971
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 1: with him on that. But the I would say the

972
00:54:55,560 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: biggest difference that I've seen with this franchise McDermott and

973
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:06,719
Speaker 1: being came along is player development. Yeah, players get here

974
00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: and then they get better. I could run down the

975
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 1: list of examples. Matt Milano is probably one of the

976
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:15,839
Speaker 1: primary ones, but to me, that's something that I could

977
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:19,240
Speaker 1: think I could see them easily fixing in his game.

978
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,440
Speaker 1: For some reason, the Florida kids, they go for ankle

979
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 1: tackles a lot out on the edges and now and

980
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 1: by virtue of that their head is down, and so

981
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,359
Speaker 1: that's why I think they miss as much as they do.

982
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,399
Speaker 1: I think once they correct that. He's got the physicality

983
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,719
Speaker 1: to really bring the wood, doesn't he without question? And

984
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: he's willing to do so. I mean he challenges receivers,

985
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:47,399
Speaker 1: he is willing to tackle. I don't think there's any

986
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 1: question about that. Those are technique issues which coaches always

987
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: feel that they can correct. And you made a great point.

988
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:55,440
Speaker 1: I mean you can even look at Ron Johnson, look

989
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: where he is based on where he was drafted. So yes,

990
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 1: players do get better, and I think players in the

991
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,280
Speaker 1: secondary get better. I mean, look look at what Levi Wallace,

992
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: who's obviously not there anymore, but look what he accomplished.

993
00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,319
Speaker 1: Was he even drafted or was he crafted? Yeah? He

994
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,920
Speaker 1: was undrafted. Yeah, that's what I thought. And here he

995
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 1: was starting on the outside on a team that was

996
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,319
Speaker 1: close to a Super Bowl for you know, a couple

997
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,839
Speaker 1: of years. So, I mean, you're right, and I think

998
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 1: that's very true at the corner spot. And this guy

999
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,840
Speaker 1: does have high level trades. I remember a couple of

1000
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 1: days ago someone asked me about corners that I thought

1001
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 1: were clear first round trade corners and Elam was right there.

1002
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 1: I think I think you're Elam is a first round

1003
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 1: trades corner and you have to be able to play

1004
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 1: man coverage in the NFL, and he can do that.

1005
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 1: I even think that the zone portion, which we briefly

1006
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: touched upon last night, Chris, I think that's coachable as well,

1007
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 1: because that's understanding receivers splits. That's understanding route combinations that

1008
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,720
Speaker 1: come from the different splits, whether you're to the field

1009
00:56:55,800 --> 00:57:00,160
Speaker 1: or to the boundary. That stuff's teachable. I'm not. I'm

1010
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:03,880
Speaker 1: sure that the high level competitiveness is. And Steve, you

1011
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 1: could speak to this better than I. But you know,

1012
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 1: from playing a long time, you know that high level competitiveness.

1013
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:10,839
Speaker 1: That's a tough thing to teach if a guy doesn't

1014
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 1: have it right. I mean, knowing where your help is

1015
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,879
Speaker 1: on a coverage, knowing where your strengths are and where

1016
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 1: you're where they're going to attack you, where the weakness

1017
00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: of your defense is. That's all knowledge and repetition and

1018
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:25,200
Speaker 1: film study. Um attitude's a little bit more esoteric. I mean,

1019
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 1: I don't know how you you can get a guy

1020
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 1: even if you give him a good pep topic at

1021
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:31,240
Speaker 1: the beginning of the game. You know, that's pretty good

1022
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 1: until the opening kickoff's done and then you gotta you know,

1023
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,439
Speaker 1: you got a guy's got to play. So attitude, Yeah,

1024
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:40,600
Speaker 1: attitude is something you can't really it's got to come

1025
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: from the kid, you know, right, and all that those stuff. Yeah,

1026
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:49,600
Speaker 1: the zone coverage, that's very learned Athletically, it's much easier

1027
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 1: to play than man coverage. It's about knowledge and understanding

1028
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 1: and that is all learnable, no question about it. So

1029
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 1: I think that's why, you know, if you're gonna get

1030
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: a guy, get somebody who's absolutely gift to do the

1031
00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 1: hard stuff and teach him the easy stuff. Yeah, And

1032
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 1: I think your point's a great one because I think

1033
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:10,760
Speaker 1: it's much easier to teach what you said than to

1034
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: teach a guy how to be a really good man corner, right,

1035
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 1: you know, I think, And he's a really good man

1036
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 1: coiner right now. And sure, well, when you come into

1037
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 1: the league, do you have some issues because you're playing

1038
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 1: better players? Of course, we know that always happens. But

1039
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,280
Speaker 1: he wants to play press man. He knows how to

1040
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 1: play press man. He's competitive with it. You can teach

1041
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 1: him his own principles. So I think this is to me,

1042
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: given the way the draft played out, chriss I thought

1043
00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: this was a really really good pick. Yeah, And the

1044
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,400
Speaker 1: one thing that I'm curious about and I'm just curious

1045
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: for your thoughts on this, maybe not right out of

1046
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,520
Speaker 1: the shoot, but with what he brings to the field

1047
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:51,360
Speaker 1: physically and athletically. As we have seen over the years,

1048
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 1: Leslie Fraser has tried just about everyone in covering Travis Kelsey,

1049
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 1: Tredavious White, Matt Milano, Jordan Poyer, Micah Hyde. I mean

1050
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,680
Speaker 1: down the list, they've tried everyone, yea, with very very

1051
00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: limited success. What do you think of him in time

1052
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 1: as a matchup option for Travis Kelsey with his size

1053
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:14,240
Speaker 1: and length. That's a great point because it seems that

1054
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 1: you're going to have to go through Kansas City to

1055
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 1: get to where you want to go, and they play

1056
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 1: him again this year. Yeah, I know, I guess, I guess.

1057
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,120
Speaker 1: We don't know what week. The schedule hasn't come out yet,

1058
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: but but I'm even talking in the playoffs, assuming you

1059
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: know it all works out. You know, that's a great

1060
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 1: point because teams have done that with corners matching up

1061
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 1: to Kelsey, particularly if you have corners with the length,

1062
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,400
Speaker 1: and he has physicality to him. Now, obviously a tight

1063
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:45,200
Speaker 1: end like Kelsey's bigger than Elam, but Elam would not

1064
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 1: back down. He would he would try to get up

1065
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,120
Speaker 1: in his face and play physically because that's who he is,

1066
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 1: that's the way he plays. That's just built into his

1067
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 1: whole personality. So that's an interesting point. I wonder if

1068
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: that was thought of. I mean, look, the first thing

1069
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 1: you have to do is get through your division. I mean,

1070
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 1: you gotta win your division first and foremost so, but

1071
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:06,440
Speaker 1: not that. Look, guys who've been doing this for a

1072
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: long time never go into a season saying, oh, we

1073
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 1: got our division, no problem. You know, Steve, you know

1074
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 1: that no one thinks like that. Every year is a

1075
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 1: different year, and you know, one or two fluky things,

1076
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 1: one or two bad injuries, and all of a sudden,

1077
01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: you know, a team that everybody predicts to be fourteen

1078
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 1: and three can be nine and eight, and you know,

1079
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 1: just like that, you know how that works. Um, But

1080
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 1: you know, I think that that he can probably line

1081
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 1: up against quality tight ends. I mean it's there, there's

1082
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of the tight ends that they'll face,

1083
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 1: even in their division. I guess Becauseki's gone, right, where

1084
01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:41,600
Speaker 1: did he sign? No? Got franchise? Didn't he got franchise? Oh?

1085
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: Did he? Yeah? I think so? Okay, so he's still

1086
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 1: in Miami. Um, so you know you got John Smith

1087
01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 1: and Hunter Henry in New England. Right, that's something to

1088
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: think about for sure. Yeah. So you get this guy

1089
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 1: who's um, You're right, he's gifted to play man coverage.

1090
01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 1: It's in his attitude and all of that. You know,

1091
01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 1: you got be long, you gotta be loose hipped, confident,

1092
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,760
Speaker 1: you gotta be smart. You gotta have speed and quick

1093
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 1: twitch as well. All None of that stuff really is

1094
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,560
Speaker 1: something you sit in a classroom and learn. It's all given.

1095
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 1: You know, you can correct, you walk in the door

1096
01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: with it, the rest of it. And I think that's

1097
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's all reps. Yeah. I couldn't agree more.

1098
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 1: And I think in today's NFL, because look, look what

1099
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 1: you have. You have quicker drops, now you have RPOs.

1100
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 1: Miami is going to be an RPO team. There's gonna

1101
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: be a lot of quick, slanting, glance routes. We know

1102
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 1: what New England's gonna do. They do a lot of

1103
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,200
Speaker 1: that as well, because Mac Jones is their quarterback. So

1104
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 1: what's happened in the league, guys, is because there's quicker

1105
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: game throws. You don't get to the quarterback on those

1106
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 1: throws because the ball comes out too quick. So if

1107
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:54,480
Speaker 1: you can't impact the quarterback, who do you have to impact?

1108
01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 1: You have to impact the receivers. You have to disrupt

1109
01:01:57,120 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: the timing of the receivers because you're not going to

1110
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,560
Speaker 1: impact the timing and disrupt the quarterback. Now, obviously all

1111
01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 1: that changes when it's third and nine, but just in general,

1112
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 1: you know, normal down and distant situations, you have to

1113
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 1: really impact and disrupt receivers more so than the quarterback.

1114
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 1: And Greg, I know you're more about grading the players

1115
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,360
Speaker 1: in terms of what their skill set is, not necessarily

1116
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,120
Speaker 1: to put them on a draft board. But tonight for

1117
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:27,400
Speaker 1: round two, are there any player? I know one player,

1118
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 1: I know one player that you're pretty excited about that's

1119
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 1: still on the board, George Pickens. But besides him, is

1120
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: there anybody else that you really liked in your film

1121
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 1: study that you're maybe even a little surprised is still

1122
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 1: out there on the board right now? I mean surprised, No,

1123
01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 1: because I've done this too many times, you know, to

1124
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:52,720
Speaker 1: be truly surprised by it, but I mean there's players

1125
01:02:52,760 --> 01:02:54,800
Speaker 1: I really like. And again, then it comes down to

1126
01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,840
Speaker 1: what the Bills could be looking for. I would I

1127
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,520
Speaker 1: would still think they'd be looking for offense of lineman,

1128
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't you guys think so? And I know they upgraded

1129
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 1: that to some degree, but I and they have a

1130
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 1: new coach and Aaron Cromer, But I would still think

1131
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 1: that offensive line would be an area that they would

1132
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 1: definitely be interested in. What number pick do they have

1133
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:19,920
Speaker 1: in the second round, and I'm I mean, obviously that's

1134
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 1: that's a ways down, so but there's always players. But

1135
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 1: I would I would think offensive line would be an

1136
01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 1: area that they might continue to look at. Um, is

1137
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,560
Speaker 1: this a spot, Chris where they could look for a

1138
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 1: running back? Because I still believe I don't know if

1139
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 1: they're gonna look for that bell cow back because I

1140
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 1: don't think their offense is built like that. But you know,

1141
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 1: I still James Cook to me is fascinating. I've really

1142
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: liked him. I think that he fits kind of the

1143
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:52,440
Speaker 1: way the Bills play really really well. See I think

1144
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,200
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker is a bell cow, He's a he's a

1145
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 1: volume back, and I don't think their offense is built

1146
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 1: on a volume back. Well, if they have a guy

1147
01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 1: that steps up and do it. I think we saw

1148
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 1: in the last month of the season last year Devin

1149
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,000
Speaker 1: Singletary become kind of that bell cow back. He was

1150
01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 1: in the game if they were on the field offensively.

1151
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:16,520
Speaker 1: So if I think one reason they have not run

1152
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 1: their running backs that way is because up until this

1153
01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 1: last month of this last season, they never had a

1154
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 1: guy do that to be a guy who deserved it.

1155
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:27,160
Speaker 1: I think if they had a guy like a Kenneth

1156
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 1: Walker the third who stepped onto the field and was

1157
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: productive from the first snap all the way through and

1158
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:36,040
Speaker 1: got better, I think they would become an offense like that,

1159
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:38,040
Speaker 1: where they would have a guy where they would where

1160
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:39,720
Speaker 1: they would handle the ball, they wouldn't take him off

1161
01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 1: the field. Well, but I don't know. I just don't know.

1162
01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 1: If they're gonna give him, it doesn't mean they're gonna

1163
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 1: run the wich is which is why I like Greg

1164
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 1: love James Cook, because here's a guy that knows how

1165
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 1: to rotate in, rotate out and still remain in the

1166
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,000
Speaker 1: flow of the game. My point is this, whether they

1167
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 1: give him the ball or not, he's the guy on

1168
01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 1: the field. Okay, let me ask you this, Steve, just

1169
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 1: to go back to when you played, because it just

1170
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,880
Speaker 1: struck me right now with the K gun and that offense,

1171
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:10,680
Speaker 1: which was obviously you know, it was thought of as

1172
01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:14,240
Speaker 1: a passing offense. But yet Thurman Thomas, how many times

1173
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 1: he carried an awful lot, didn't he it was a

1174
01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:20,919
Speaker 1: fifty fifty split. Yeah, So I mean, I don't think

1175
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:24,400
Speaker 1: to me, this offense now with Josh would not be

1176
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 1: looking for that. I don't. I don't think they'd be

1177
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 1: looking for that. I think they want more than they

1178
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,200
Speaker 1: had through clearly most of last season, more like what

1179
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 1: they had down the stretch. But I don't think they're

1180
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 1: looking for a fifty fifty split. No, they're not looking

1181
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 1: for a fifty fifty split. But what my point would

1182
01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 1: just be this more about snap counts, because right they're

1183
01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: they're running guys on and off the field or constantly,

1184
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:47,440
Speaker 1: whether they're handing them the ball or not, with pass

1185
01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:50,560
Speaker 1: protection and all that, and I think they would maybe

1186
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:53,240
Speaker 1: not do that as much. Your Belle Kyle guy would

1187
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:55,080
Speaker 1: just be the guy that gets the most snaps. Devin

1188
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:57,560
Speaker 1: Singletary far and away got more snaps than any other

1189
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 1: than Zack Moss or the other guy or a Brita

1190
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: last year at the end of the season. Not that

1191
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:07,320
Speaker 1: they're going to become a running offense by any stretch

1192
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: or even include or up their percentage, but at least

1193
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,680
Speaker 1: they've got one guy in there, and they become because

1194
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,440
Speaker 1: of a skill set less predictable because when Moss is

1195
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: in there, they're gonna use him to pass protect. When

1196
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:21,920
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary is in there, they're gonna hand it to him,

1197
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,040
Speaker 1: or they're gonna throw him out in the route, that

1198
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 1: kind of thing, right. Yeah, The reason I like Cook

1199
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: for this offense is the one thing Cook gives them,

1200
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:33,680
Speaker 1: which really Singletary doesn't and Moss certainly doesn't, is Cook

1201
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:37,000
Speaker 1: can split out and run intermediate and vertical routes, right,

1202
01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 1: And that allman I think would really help this offense.

1203
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: And you know, I guess it depends on a receiver

1204
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:45,680
Speaker 1: as well. They could take a receiver at fifty seven,

1205
01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:49,680
Speaker 1: no problem at all, but Cook has vertical ability as

1206
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:52,040
Speaker 1: as a pass receiver. He happens to be a very

1207
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:55,320
Speaker 1: good runner as well. He runs. He actually looks like

1208
01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 1: his brother, He's just a little smaller, but he's got

1209
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:01,840
Speaker 1: very good running ability, and he's a terrific pass receiver

1210
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:05,360
Speaker 1: who has split out and made big plays running intermediate

1211
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 1: and vertical routes that would give them a dimension that

1212
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:11,360
Speaker 1: they don't presently have. I forgot about him, and this

1213
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,320
Speaker 1: is the guy at every time. It's his hair and

1214
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,320
Speaker 1: the way he runs away, he looks. His uniform looks

1215
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 1: like Alvin Kamara to me. And if yeah, you know what,

1216
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:23,000
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. I think deployment wise, you know,

1217
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:25,080
Speaker 1: I don't want people to think we're saying he's absolutely

1218
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,720
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara right now, but deployment wise, I think you

1219
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 1: can use him in a similar fashion. Yeah, and that

1220
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense to me. Yeah, I was pointing.

1221
01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 1: I was pointing a lot of our listeners to the

1222
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee game. Watch how they split him out in that

1223
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:41,280
Speaker 1: game in the red zone in particular, he's outside the

1224
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:44,360
Speaker 1: numbers and he's catching Oh yeah, well he I think

1225
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 1: two years in a row, if I'm not mistaken, he

1226
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:50,520
Speaker 1: caught long passes against Alabama and Nick Saban's defense where

1227
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:54,360
Speaker 1: he was split outside the numbers and he ran vertical routes.

1228
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 1: And he is a tough matchup because he even out

1229
01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,400
Speaker 1: of the backfield. He can run will routes. He can

1230
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:02,440
Speaker 1: run h seemed the halfback seam routes. He gives you

1231
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:06,000
Speaker 1: a dimension in the pass game that's different from Singletary

1232
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 1: and Moss for sure. It's also different from Bruce Hall

1233
01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:12,480
Speaker 1: because Bruce Hall is not a polished route runner like

1234
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,880
Speaker 1: James Cook is. In my opinion, I just don't think

1235
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:17,360
Speaker 1: he's as advanced in that area of the game. He's

1236
01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 1: got good hands, but if you need splitting him out wide,

1237
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:22,600
Speaker 1: I think would be a very different conversation and a

1238
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:26,080
Speaker 1: much bigger learning curve. And the other factor with Cook

1239
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:30,040
Speaker 1: two Singletary, I wouldn't call him purely explosive. Even as

1240
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:32,600
Speaker 1: a runner. Cook is explosive. If Cook gets to the

1241
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 1: third level, he could take it to the house. One

1242
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:37,439
Speaker 1: other guy that I wanted to run by you, and

1243
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:38,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw him or not, so

1244
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:40,040
Speaker 1: I hate to put you on the spot. If you

1245
01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 1: didn't see him, you didnt see him. I'm just thinking,

1246
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:44,639
Speaker 1: if they don't get a running back tonight, somebody later

1247
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,920
Speaker 1: in the draft, the Arizona State kid Rashad White, the

1248
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:49,800
Speaker 1: running back, I don't know if I saw him. Yeah,

1249
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 1: what do you think of him because I think he's

1250
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,519
Speaker 1: a natural pass catcher as well. I mean not, I

1251
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,000
Speaker 1: really like him too. Yeah, I think he fits the

1252
01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:01,479
Speaker 1: NFL game. I mean I would not. I would see

1253
01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: him as someone who would fit today's NFL and would

1254
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 1: not surprise me if he becomes an excellent NFL player,

1255
01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:10,439
Speaker 1: because he's got good running traits, not special, but good.

1256
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:13,799
Speaker 1: And plus he's two fifteen, and he's a really really

1257
01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 1: good receiver. As you mentioned, he can line up both

1258
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,960
Speaker 1: in the backfield, he can detach from the formation. He

1259
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:24,599
Speaker 1: really has wide receiver traits as as a receiver. So

1260
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:28,040
Speaker 1: he's another guy and I studied him closely and I

1261
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:31,040
Speaker 1: think he fits that as well. Chris, that that's another player.

1262
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 1: Is there again? I don't you know. I never know

1263
01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 1: where guys are gonna go, but I think he fits

1264
01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 1: just what you're talking about. Let me let me say

1265
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 1: this then, Is there there? We talk about position as

1266
01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 1: players defensively, guys that are hybrid linebackers, safety's safety linebackers

1267
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,879
Speaker 1: or edge rushers, defensive ends, that kind of stuff on offense,

1268
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,400
Speaker 1: that's kind of the hybrid that guys are looking for. Now,

1269
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:53,160
Speaker 1: guy that can split out wide and beat you as

1270
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,120
Speaker 1: a wide receiver, but then like a Deebo Samuel, line

1271
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:58,759
Speaker 1: up in the backfield and take the handoff. It becomes

1272
01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:02,439
Speaker 1: a real yeah, matchup problem for defense to set their

1273
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:05,240
Speaker 1: defense not knowing exactly what role that guy is in

1274
01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:08,120
Speaker 1: in that play. Are there any other running backs other

1275
01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:10,080
Speaker 1: than the two guys we've just been talking about who

1276
01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:12,839
Speaker 1: are like that as a running back or wide receiver.

1277
01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:16,720
Speaker 1: As running backs, I'm trying to look. I mean, ty

1278
01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:19,720
Speaker 1: Chandler is somewhat like that. Coming out of North Carolina,

1279
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: he ran some vertical routes coming out of the backfield.

1280
01:10:23,160 --> 01:10:25,599
Speaker 1: He'd be a later round pick, I would think. I don't.

1281
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:30,240
Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be a Day two player. You know.

1282
01:10:30,720 --> 01:10:33,559
Speaker 1: I don't think they would view Brian Robinson this way,

1283
01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 1: but he was a pretty good receiver at Alabama. I

1284
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,559
Speaker 1: think Jerome Ford has that ability as well. I think

1285
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,680
Speaker 1: Jerome Ford would be another guy that you could put

1286
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 1: in that category. Not quite at the same level as

1287
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 1: Cook and White, but I think he could fall into

1288
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,759
Speaker 1: that category. You know, if you got if he's sitting

1289
01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:54,000
Speaker 1: there in the fourth round, let's say, and you think, Okay,

1290
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 1: we wanted to get it back in this draft. I

1291
01:10:56,200 --> 01:11:00,640
Speaker 1: think he can fit into that role, you know, to

1292
01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:02,160
Speaker 1: play off what you said, Steve, and I know we're

1293
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:04,320
Speaker 1: probably running short on time, but to playoff and you said,

1294
01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,760
Speaker 1: when you have an elite quarterback, you really want to

1295
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:11,280
Speaker 1: be able with your offense from a formation perspective, of

1296
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:15,560
Speaker 1: personnel perspective. You want to stress and challenge the defense

1297
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:19,479
Speaker 1: both horizontally and vertically as much as you possibly can.

1298
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:23,080
Speaker 1: And you know that's why I think teams like this,

1299
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:26,880
Speaker 1: you know, Buffalo, Kansas City, they're not looking for bell cows.

1300
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 1: They're looking for guys who can do this kind of

1301
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 1: thing that we're talking about. Sure, you have to run

1302
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:34,719
Speaker 1: the ball sometime, and you want to run it well

1303
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,960
Speaker 1: when you do, no question. But I don't think they're

1304
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,639
Speaker 1: looking for that kind of back where they say, Okay,

1305
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:43,639
Speaker 1: this guy needs to get at eighteen to twenty two

1306
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:47,200
Speaker 1: times every week where our offense isn't gonna work. Yeah. Right,

1307
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,639
Speaker 1: It's almost it's almost as if the guy may carry

1308
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 1: the ball as much as he catches it in this offense.

1309
01:11:53,920 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 1: You know, James Cook to me, and again we're just

1310
01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:57,760
Speaker 1: talking about him because I like him. You know, I

1311
01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,439
Speaker 1: could see him being the kind of guy that gets

1312
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 1: eleven car he's a week and also gets you know,

1313
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 1: eight or nine targets a week. He's that kind of player, Right,

1314
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 1: I agree with you. And he's really intriguing because I

1315
01:12:09,040 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: think two he's for whatever. Maybe not for us because

1316
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,479
Speaker 1: we've been talking about him, but as a consensus, he's

1317
01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:19,800
Speaker 1: a step and a half behind the pure running backs

1318
01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:24,439
Speaker 1: like Bruce Hall and Kenneth Walker the third, but he's

1319
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 1: in some ways for the pros. He's a much better

1320
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:31,120
Speaker 1: fit then, Yeah, because then it becomes team and team specific. Steve.

1321
01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:33,040
Speaker 1: It depends what you're looking for, right, you know, the

1322
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 1: Bills are not looking in my view, Hey, now watch

1323
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 1: the Dell draft Kenneth Walker and we'll all you know,

1324
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 1: I'll look like an idiot, but hey, to me, the

1325
01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:43,840
Speaker 1: Bills are not looking for a bell cow back you

1326
01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 1: know that needs twenty carries in order to be effective. Yeah, right,

1327
01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 1: I agree? All right, Greg, listen enjoy night two of

1328
01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 1: the draft. I know on the draft stream tonight, Manny

1329
01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,200
Speaker 1: and I'll catch up with you after the Bill's second

1330
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 1: round pick, and then Steve and I'll review the whole

1331
01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,240
Speaker 1: kit and caboodle with you next week. Thanks very much,

1332
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,200
Speaker 1: looking forward to it. Thanks guys. All right, that's great.

1333
01:13:03,200 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 1: Costale senior producer from NFL Films joining us and breaking

1334
01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 1: down the Bill's first round pick. He's big on the

1335
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:15,720
Speaker 1: RBS man, he is big on the running backs. So

1336
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 1: and I like James Cook a lot. I just happened

1337
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,760
Speaker 1: to watch a lot of Georgia games this year and

1338
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,800
Speaker 1: him and his teammate Zamir White, the other running back

1339
01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,519
Speaker 1: they're both in this draft pool. Zamir White is more

1340
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:30,840
Speaker 1: of the one cut and go guy, not quite as

1341
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,360
Speaker 1: shifty as Cook is. Cook can just do so many

1342
01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:37,200
Speaker 1: different things. I would say. The only thing where you

1343
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:40,840
Speaker 1: might wonder about his game a little bit is where

1344
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,400
Speaker 1: a lot of running backs struggle a little bit, not struggle,

1345
01:13:44,479 --> 01:13:46,959
Speaker 1: but maybe aren't as advanced is in the past protection

1346
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,960
Speaker 1: And he's a little light in the pants. So how

1347
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:51,720
Speaker 1: is he going to hold up in pass pro when

1348
01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:53,640
Speaker 1: he's got a two hundred and thirty pound linebacker coming

1349
01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:56,040
Speaker 1: out and with a head of steam. That remains to

1350
01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:59,559
Speaker 1: be seen. But the diversity that he can give your

1351
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:03,280
Speaker 1: offense from the running back position, it's impressive. Here's the

1352
01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 1: thing about a guy like like James Cook. Yeah, he

1353
01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:10,240
Speaker 1: may not be able to pass protect, but The way

1354
01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:14,559
Speaker 1: he protects your quarterback is he gets open immediately. So

1355
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,360
Speaker 1: if he flares out, if that guy's not on him

1356
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:21,679
Speaker 1: and the rush isn't free and clear right up the middle,

1357
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:25,760
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks got the ball out of his hand to

1358
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 1: James you know, James Cook, and he's gone. That's how

1359
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:33,040
Speaker 1: he passed protects. He gives the quarterback a place to

1360
01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,639
Speaker 1: throw the football before he gets hit. And that's what

1361
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:38,320
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator's job is. If you're gonna and this is

1362
01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 1: what the K gun was back in the day. It

1363
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 1: was a tight end there and they had five pass pros,

1364
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 1: and the tight end and the back would both release.

1365
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,400
Speaker 1: You had to cover both those guys right away or

1366
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:50,840
Speaker 1: one of them was going to be open and the

1367
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:53,519
Speaker 1: ball was gone. You couldn't get home even with only

1368
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:57,680
Speaker 1: five offensive linemen rushing or protecting. So even if he

1369
01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:02,639
Speaker 1: had a stud pass rush, sure if he wins, if

1370
01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:04,800
Speaker 1: you can double him every time he goes someplace, if

1371
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:07,599
Speaker 1: if somebody else wins, you got a running back who's

1372
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:10,000
Speaker 1: who turned out to be a Hall of Famer and

1373
01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:13,320
Speaker 1: a great tight end. One of them is going to

1374
01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 1: be an option. It's gonna go bink right to him

1375
01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:19,439
Speaker 1: and away you go, you you lose. So that's why

1376
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 1: pass pro is a running back. Yes, it's one thing

1377
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:26,400
Speaker 1: if you're if it's a third and you know third

1378
01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:29,400
Speaker 1: and fifteen. Yeah, you might keep a tight end in

1379
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:31,240
Speaker 1: and a running back end to pass protect because you

1380
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:33,040
Speaker 1: gotta wait for the routes to get down the field.

1381
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 1: But other than that, on regular down and distance, when

1382
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 1: you're on schedule, that pass pro is is a secondary

1383
01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:44,559
Speaker 1: consideration for a running back James Cook. For those that

1384
01:15:44,600 --> 01:15:48,240
Speaker 1: are wondering, four four two forty time ten yards split

1385
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 1: one five four, that's explosive. All right, listen, that's my

1386
01:15:54,200 --> 01:15:57,760
Speaker 1: guy tonight. You can't take my guy. I'm taking him.

1387
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:00,000
Speaker 1: You didn't take him. That was my guy. You didn't

1388
01:16:00,160 --> 01:16:02,640
Speaker 1: say you were gonna take him. You didn't. I didn't know.

1389
01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:04,439
Speaker 1: I didn't say I was taking him tonight. He's my guy.

1390
01:16:04,439 --> 01:16:06,400
Speaker 1: I have my eye on him for like a month out.

1391
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:09,360
Speaker 1: Yeah you're saying that now, of course, so am I.

1392
01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 1: But no, he's I like that. I like him. I

1393
01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:15,920
Speaker 1: like him and his skill said better than I like

1394
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:19,320
Speaker 1: the other two Breece Hall, and he might be there

1395
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:21,000
Speaker 1: in round three. I just don't think he's gonna be

1396
01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 1: there at eighty nine. Take him, now, take him now,

1397
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:27,560
Speaker 1: you'll get it because listen, there's like eight offensive tackles

1398
01:16:27,600 --> 01:16:30,439
Speaker 1: still on the board. There's a bunch of defensive there's

1399
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys with some traits still on the

1400
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,240
Speaker 1: board at those other spots. And I don't think, guy,

1401
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:36,439
Speaker 1: I don't think the wide receiver value is gonna be there.

1402
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 1: I see. That's the thing with me. This guy gives

1403
01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:42,880
Speaker 1: you real value on the field. I mean, I think

1404
01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:46,040
Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey could carve out a role for a guy

1405
01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:50,040
Speaker 1: like James Right, like James Cook, Like I mean, just

1406
01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 1: look at what the Saints do with Kamara. That guy's unbelievable. Yeah,

1407
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 1: because Kimara is put together a little bit better than Cook.

1408
01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:01,080
Speaker 1: But still, yeah, I get what you're saying. That's I

1409
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 1: think that's the guy. All right, we gotta take a

1410
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 1: break here. When we come back, we'll get an update

1411
01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:10,120
Speaker 1: on Kyle Brandt's cross country travel in an effort to

1412
01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 1: get tonight two of the draft, where he's announcing the

1413
01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:15,760
Speaker 1: Bill's third round pick at the lectern. So we'll check

1414
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 1: in on that, and we'll also bring you the sad,

1415
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 1: sad situation of the New England Patriots fans reaction to

1416
01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:28,519
Speaker 1: their first round pick of a guard that some other

1417
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:32,519
Speaker 1: teams had as a third round player. You don't want

1418
01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 1: to miss it. We have it for your next here

1419
01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:36,599
Speaker 1: on One Bill's Live, presented by Kalid to Health, It's

1420
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:51,080
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bill's Radio. All right, Welcome back to One Bill's Live.

1421
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:52,800
Speaker 1: Chris Brown, Steve d Ask me with you as we

1422
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:55,639
Speaker 1: wait for Day two of the NFL Draft to begin.

1423
01:17:56,640 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 1: And part of two's festivities as it pertains to the

1424
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 1: Bills picks involves Good Morning Football's Kyle Brandt as he

1425
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:10,479
Speaker 1: broke the news here on our show on Monday, he

1426
01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:14,960
Speaker 1: has been asked to announce the Bill's Round three selection

1427
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,960
Speaker 1: at pick eighty nine tonight. The problem was he still

1428
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:21,679
Speaker 1: had to do Good Morning Football in New York this

1429
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:24,720
Speaker 1: morning and then head to the Newark Airport in New

1430
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:28,680
Speaker 1: Jersey right after the show for a noon flight, and

1431
01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:31,920
Speaker 1: he is currently airborne as we understand it, but he's

1432
01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 1: providing a social media update on his progress as he

1433
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 1: madly makes his way across the country to get to

1434
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,839
Speaker 1: the lectern in time to make the Bills or announce

1435
01:18:42,880 --> 01:18:45,519
Speaker 1: the Bills pick at eighty nine. So here is Kyle

1436
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:49,040
Speaker 1: brand New York City at eleven o'clock and twenty five minutes,

1437
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:52,639
Speaker 1: I will leave this set in this building by car.

1438
01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:55,800
Speaker 1: I will travel to the Garden States of Newark and

1439
01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 1: Newark Airport, in which I have a fight that is

1440
01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:00,920
Speaker 1: currently on time. Five and a half hour flight to

1441
01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:06,080
Speaker 1: arrive in Las Vegas, touchdown, go directly directly to the

1442
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:10,400
Speaker 1: draft theater at the Bellagio Fountains, at which point, god willing,

1443
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 1: I will be able to make the eighty nine pick. Okay,

1444
01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 1: there is a very very realistic possibility that I am

1445
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:20,240
Speaker 1: not there in time. That's the whole schedule. Okay, Adams,

1446
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:22,040
Speaker 1: what jumps out to you about that sched I'm trying

1447
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:25,240
Speaker 1: to look here. I mean, New York seems like it'll

1448
01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 1: be fine for you. What's chicking out to you? That's

1449
01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:29,400
Speaker 1: really really not good. I mean, when you get to Vegas,

1450
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 1: we have a car waiting there. You might get to

1451
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,759
Speaker 1: the Belagio stage. You might need some help go from fans.

1452
01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:37,280
Speaker 1: If people see Kyle Brandt along the way, help him,

1453
01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:40,360
Speaker 1: give him provisions, snacks. It doesn't sound like you're going

1454
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:42,559
Speaker 1: to have any pretzels or anything at your disposal. They

1455
01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 1: might make you like low the lug at yourself. I

1456
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 1: might need to do that. Speaking of that, I may

1457
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,559
Speaker 1: need to also need to pay twenty five dollars on

1458
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:51,640
Speaker 1: this flight to use the seatback, which I've been more

1459
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:54,439
Speaker 1: than willing to do. A couple of scenarios here. If

1460
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:56,719
Speaker 1: the bill decided to move up in the third round

1461
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:59,360
Speaker 1: from eighty nine to say seventy nine, I will not

1462
01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:01,760
Speaker 1: be there in time the pick. If the flight is

1463
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:04,599
Speaker 1: delayed at all, I will not be there on time

1464
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 1: for the pick. It is high stakes, perilous travel, of

1465
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,120
Speaker 1: which I will finish this show and then go, and

1466
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:12,439
Speaker 1: I will say I did the research. Brandon being the

1467
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 1: three straight years in a row, he has not moved

1468
01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 1: from his third round pick. So if you stick at

1469
01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:20,360
Speaker 1: eighty nine, I can get there. I can bring the

1470
01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 1: house down for you. I just need you to help me.

1471
01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:25,240
Speaker 1: Don't move up too far. It's eighty seven shirt, I

1472
01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:28,800
Speaker 1: can get there. So that's where it's at. And last

1473
01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:32,120
Speaker 1: we heard he was in flight en route to Las Vegas.

1474
01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:34,240
Speaker 1: So the plane took off. It looks like he's on time.

1475
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 1: He's got his T shirt already for the flight. It's

1476
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:40,960
Speaker 1: the Josh Allen flex photo from just the other day

1477
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,240
Speaker 1: in the bill's weight room. He's already got an ironed

1478
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:47,599
Speaker 1: onto a T shirt. So I suffice it to say

1479
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 1: he's amped and ready to roll, and we would expect

1480
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:55,479
Speaker 1: nothing less. That's exactly right. And I've been there though

1481
01:20:57,200 --> 01:21:01,120
Speaker 1: where Yeah, you're trying to you got you got a meeting.

1482
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:05,120
Speaker 1: You gotta get to know in the flights. Everybody's got

1483
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:07,160
Speaker 1: a horror story of travel. This is a this is

1484
01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:09,800
Speaker 1: one that think about it. It's not just he's got

1485
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 1: like now, it's like a public a public meeting he's

1486
01:21:13,520 --> 01:21:16,479
Speaker 1: got to go to. And if he's nine time, if

1487
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:18,040
Speaker 1: he's not on time, you e better hope you're not

1488
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:19,920
Speaker 1: the airline that is the cause of it. Perilous was

1489
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 1: a good word, yes, that Kyle used there. On the

1490
01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:26,400
Speaker 1: other end of the spectrum, there was a certain draft

1491
01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 1: choice last night that not only elicited head scratching, but

1492
01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:38,280
Speaker 1: outright laughter from another NFL team, the New England Patriots,

1493
01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 1: who traded out of their pick at twenty one and

1494
01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,680
Speaker 1: moved back to pick twenty nine in the trade with

1495
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 1: Kansas City went with University of Tennessee Chattanoogagard Cole Strange

1496
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 1: and after this pick was announced, while La Rams GM,

1497
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 1: Less Sneed and head coach Sean mcvayh were addressing the

1498
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:04,719
Speaker 1: Los Angeles media. They did not have a pick um,

1499
01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:07,880
Speaker 1: but they were made available to the media out there

1500
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:13,000
Speaker 1: while Kansas City or New England's pick was announced at

1501
01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:17,120
Speaker 1: pick twenty nine. Here is the reaction of Less Sneed

1502
01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:24,280
Speaker 1: and Sean McVeigh to New England's pick of guard Cole Strange. Really,

1503
01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:32,120
Speaker 1: oh my ut Chattanooga to the first round. Hey, where's

1504
01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:35,120
Speaker 1: how about that? And we wasted our time watching him

1505
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:41,679
Speaker 1: thinking he'd be at one oh four. They didn't. An

1506
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:47,760
Speaker 1: unabashed Sean McVeagh with the mic drop comment, we thought

1507
01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:50,280
Speaker 1: he'd be there at one oh four, which is I

1508
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:53,920
Speaker 1: think one of their first picks. Holy mackerel like talk

1509
01:22:53,960 --> 01:22:56,960
Speaker 1: about a mic drop on Bill Belichick. Listen the first

1510
01:22:56,960 --> 01:22:59,840
Speaker 1: thing out of it the GM and I what's it?

1511
01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:02,960
Speaker 1: The gym's name, less Less Snee sitting there and you

1512
01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:06,120
Speaker 1: can he goes for real, for real, he goes Tennessee,

1513
01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:10,360
Speaker 1: Chattanooga to the first He couldn't believe it. He couldn't

1514
01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:13,280
Speaker 1: believe it. Well, he's not the only it was. It

1515
01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:15,600
Speaker 1: was genuine dismay. It wasn't like they were rubbing the

1516
01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:17,320
Speaker 1: face of it. They were like, they're just like wow,

1517
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:20,920
Speaker 1: Like there were more wrinkles on their forehead than mine. Um,

1518
01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:25,439
Speaker 1: they uh, because I have a big forehead. Anyway, They're

1519
01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:28,759
Speaker 1: not the only ones that were in disbelief. Oh man, Steve,

1520
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:32,120
Speaker 1: We're going to New England now, where we will get

1521
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:36,200
Speaker 1: the reaction from the analysts that cover the team, as

1522
01:23:36,200 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 1: well as some select fans and their reaction to the

1523
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:45,720
Speaker 1: first round choice of UT Chattanooga guard Cole Strange. Cole

1524
01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:49,719
Speaker 1: Strange gonna be the Patriots pick. Strange? Hang on, okay, Albert,

1525
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:53,800
Speaker 1: we'll get a hold on ye. But oh boy, don't

1526
01:23:55,520 --> 01:24:00,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what to say. From Chattanooga is an

1527
01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 1: interior offensive lineman who was projected as a third round

1528
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:08,640
Speaker 1: I can't believe. Again, Patriots fans, it's draft night and

1529
01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:10,760
Speaker 1: we've taken another player that none of us have ever

1530
01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:12,400
Speaker 1: even heard of it. I don't think you'd be able

1531
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:14,680
Speaker 1: to find anywhere on the internet a single first round

1532
01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:26,760
Speaker 1: mock draft that had cold Strange going first. You still

1533
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:29,679
Speaker 1: have a defense that did not force the Buffalo Bills

1534
01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 1: to punt even either of the final two games. That

1535
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:38,719
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten any better. In my mind, it's a fourth

1536
01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 1: round pick. It's a great decision, yes, Mike, Well, I

1537
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:43,920
Speaker 1: mean I have no faith that they did the right thing.

1538
01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:46,799
Speaker 1: I've I've lost faith in the team and the decision making.

1539
01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 1: And that's where we are. Lap it up. I just

1540
01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:54,360
Speaker 1: get a big old ladle, get a big old ladle,

1541
01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:57,320
Speaker 1: stick it in this pot of the New England Patriots messages.

1542
01:24:57,520 --> 01:25:00,759
Speaker 1: Lap it up all over your face, just it all over,

1543
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:07,480
Speaker 1: just oh my god, so so tasty. The the lamenting,

1544
01:25:08,680 --> 01:25:13,240
Speaker 1: the Patriot fans, and they that was. I mean, they're

1545
01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:15,880
Speaker 1: just like Buffalo. They got they got the studio set up,

1546
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,000
Speaker 1: just like us here. They got the studio setups, they

1547
01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 1: got the analysts sitting there and all of them are

1548
01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:25,040
Speaker 1: absolutely crushed. My favorite part of the whole video there

1549
01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:28,360
Speaker 1: for our for our radio listeners who could not watch it,

1550
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:32,360
Speaker 1: there are three Patriots fans, all in jerseys, staring at

1551
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 1: the television on the case. The camera is the camera

1552
01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:38,799
Speaker 1: is looking out of the TV screen at three fans

1553
01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:42,760
Speaker 1: looking right back at it as they watched. Yea. They

1554
01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:45,080
Speaker 1: don't say a single thing And the best part is

1555
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:48,640
Speaker 1: their wives and significant others are heard in the background

1556
01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:54,360
Speaker 1: laughing just out loud. Absolutely their disappointment. It is the

1557
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:58,280
Speaker 1: tastiest thing since Bill Belichick slammed the phone on the

1558
01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:02,000
Speaker 1: sidelines on the Monday night game in twenty twenty. That's

1559
01:26:02,000 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: how delicious that minute of video was for me. I

1560
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,240
Speaker 1: hope you enjoyed it as well. And as I told Steve,

1561
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:14,559
Speaker 1: if you're familiar with the Netflix show Stranger Things, the

1562
01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:17,439
Speaker 1: Patriots are living in the upside down right now because

1563
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:21,360
Speaker 1: it has completely flipped for them. They are on the

1564
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:23,599
Speaker 1: bottom looking up and they don't know what the hell

1565
01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,679
Speaker 1: they're doing. In the draft again, they drafted. They drafted

1566
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 1: a kid that really literally would have been there at

1567
01:26:28,479 --> 01:26:31,800
Speaker 1: a hundred. He would have been there at the pick

1568
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 1: one when the Rams were on the clock, right and

1569
01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,800
Speaker 1: they picked him in the first round. Love it, Love it,

1570
01:26:40,080 --> 01:26:41,760
Speaker 1: love it. We thought that would be something that you

1571
01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:44,240
Speaker 1: would enjoy as well. If you don't, if you didn't

1572
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:45,960
Speaker 1: get a chance to watch it because you're listening on

1573
01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:48,559
Speaker 1: the radio, pull it up on your phone. It is

1574
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:51,400
Speaker 1: worth watching. It'll just bring a smile to your face

1575
01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:54,599
Speaker 1: and make your day even better. Bill's got a corner

1576
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:57,360
Speaker 1: addressed the need, and the Patriots still don't know what

1577
01:26:57,400 --> 01:26:59,479
Speaker 1: they're doing in the draft. It doesn't get any better

1578
01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:01,519
Speaker 1: than that. We have to take a break, Steve and

1579
01:27:01,560 --> 01:27:03,479
Speaker 1: I with one more segment to go. Stay tune. We'll

1580
01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:04,920
Speaker 1: be back in a moment here on One Deal's Live.

1581
01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:20,759
Speaker 1: Just to take the Patriots pick a step further guard

1582
01:27:20,800 --> 01:27:26,160
Speaker 1: Cole Strand going twenty ninth overall, when some people, including

1583
01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:30,640
Speaker 1: draft analysts, felt he was a third round prospect. The

1584
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:33,920
Speaker 1: Patriots basically had to fill a hole that they created themselves.

1585
01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:38,280
Speaker 1: They traded away starting guard Shack Mason this offseason and

1586
01:27:38,320 --> 01:27:41,679
Speaker 1: then had to plug that hole with their first round pick,

1587
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,160
Speaker 1: who many people feel as a third round prospect. Yeah,

1588
01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:50,160
Speaker 1: have fun with that. We did have word that Bill's

1589
01:27:50,200 --> 01:27:53,479
Speaker 1: first round pick, Kayer Elam is on site here at

1590
01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:57,479
Speaker 1: one Bill's Drive. One of our photographer, Bill Whippert, snapped

1591
01:27:57,479 --> 01:28:02,320
Speaker 1: some shots at the airport after he landed. Good sharp shot,

1592
01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:06,080
Speaker 1: like a light blue plaid look with the blazer there,

1593
01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:10,400
Speaker 1: trim cut. Yeah, he looks good, awesome. There was also

1594
01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:13,240
Speaker 1: a picture we had of him and Tredavious White also

1595
01:28:13,439 --> 01:28:16,320
Speaker 1: that they met for the first time. I guess it's

1596
01:28:16,360 --> 01:28:19,040
Speaker 1: for the first time. We good stuff. He will be

1597

1603
01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:41,439
Speaker 1: young kid in the middle Bill's hat. It's got the
