Some of the details of this deal 53 00:02:38,508 --> 00:02:42,548 Speaker 9: five years, two fifty five fifty one million dollars average 54 00:02:42,628 --> 00:02:46,148 Speaker 9: per year.

Also, 62 00:03:06,308 --> 00:03:09,508 Speaker 9: and this is worth noting, it is historic because his agent, 63 00:03:09,668 --> 00:03:13,548 Speaker 9: Nicole in now is the largest deal ever done by 64 00:03:13,548 --> 00:03:16,988 Speaker 9: a female agent in sports history. All in all, a 65 00:03:17,068 --> 00:03:20,348 Speaker 9: date where everyone can walk away smiling, and no doubt, 66 00:03:20,548 --> 00:03:24,228 Speaker 9: the Eagles in Jalen Hurts, can walk into the future together. 67 00:03:25,988 --> 00:03:29,108 Speaker 4: An incredible number and that keeps Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia 68 00:03:29,188 --> 00:03:30,268 Speaker 4: through twenty twenty eight. 69 00:03:30,308 --> 00:03:31,788 Speaker 7: The Eagles have their guy under center. 70 00:03:32,348 --> 00:03:35,628 Speaker 4: This news came out midday on Monday, so, Peter, your 71 00:03:35,628 --> 00:03:38,628 Speaker 4: initial reaction to this news is probably expecting it was coming, 72 00:03:38,668 --> 00:03:40,068 Speaker 4: but now that it's reality, what do you. 73 00:03:39,988 --> 00:03:42,188 Speaker 7: Think I was happy for everybody.

The second round pick is not a 77 00:03:48,828 --> 00:03:51,348 Speaker 7: first overall pick. The second round pick who has earned 78 00:03:51,388 --> 00:03:53,828 Speaker 7: his way onto the field and has done it. But 79 00:03:53,948 --> 00:03:56,468 Speaker 7: kudos to all the parties involved in getting it done 80 00:03:56,468 --> 00:03:58,948 Speaker 7: and getting it done first. Like I know Howie Roseman 81 00:03:59,068 --> 00:04:01,508 Speaker 7: wanted to get this thing done first. And when at 82 00:04:01,548 --> 00:04:04,268 Speaker 7: first I'm saying, justin Herbert's coming and Joe Burrow's come, 83 00:04:04,428 --> 00:04:06,028 Speaker 7: and in the second you started setting the bar at 84 00:04:06,028 --> 00:04:07,908 Speaker 7: a certain level. You don't know where that's gonna go. 85 00:04:07,948 --> 00:04:09,588 Speaker 7: But if you can dictate the narrative, and you could 86 00:04:09,628 --> 00:04:11,668 Speaker 7: be the one to say, hey, on our terms, let's 87 00:04:11,668 --> 00:04:14,188 Speaker 7: make it work for both sides, it's great. But Howie Roseman, 88 00:04:14,268 --> 00:04:16,348 Speaker 7: of course Nicole in the agent, but most importantly this 89 00:04:16,428 --> 00:04:19,988 Speaker 7: guy Jalen Hurts, who when when drafted, a lot of 90 00:04:19,988 --> 00:04:22,508 Speaker 7: people roll their eyes. In Philadelphia they already had Carson 91 00:04:22,548 --> 00:04:24,228 Speaker 7: Wentz and we know the story. He did it for 92 00:04:24,348 --> 00:04:26,948 Speaker 7: the last three seasons and talking about it. But getting 93 00:04:26,988 --> 00:04:30,188 Speaker 7: paid now this way, that's real money. That is money 94 00:04:30,188 --> 00:04:32,148 Speaker 7: that he can go home tonight and he could tell 95 00:04:32,268 --> 00:04:34,908 Speaker 7: his family, not only are we taking care of my 96 00:04:35,028 --> 00:04:37,188 Speaker 7: kids my kids, Eventual families are gonna be taking care 97 00:04:37,228 --> 00:04:38,708 Speaker 7: of their kids' families are gonna be taking care of 98 00:04:38,748 --> 00:04:40,188 Speaker 7: and their kids family are gonna be taken care of. 99 00:04:40,308 --> 00:04:42,468 Speaker 7: And oh yeah, he's twenty four years old, so he's 100 00:04:42,508 --> 00:04:45,428 Speaker 7: probably gonna hit it again. He's twenty four so he 101 00:04:45,468 --> 00:04:48,988 Speaker 7: can get the contract again. An incredible job by all. 102 00:04:49,028 --> 00:04:50,788 Speaker 7: And I said this on Twitter last night, and I 103 00:04:50,908 --> 00:04:53,748 Speaker 7: mean this, and I think it's gonna become interesting with 104 00:04:53,788 --> 00:04:57,188 Speaker 7: Cincinnati and the Chargers as well. When the owner gives 105 00:04:57,228 --> 00:05:00,308 Speaker 7: you the keys to let everyone do their jobs and 106 00:05:00,428 --> 00:05:02,908 Speaker 7: spend the money, and you know there's a salary cap, 107 00:05:02,948 --> 00:05:04,628 Speaker 7: but say, okay, spend it in a lot of you 108 00:05:04,668 --> 00:05:08,228 Speaker 7: want things can get done. Jeffrey Loriie the owner told 109 00:05:08,228 --> 00:05:11,468 Speaker 7: Howie Roseman, just get it done. Here's whatever budget you need. 110 00:05:11,508 --> 00:05:13,668 Speaker 7: Make it happen. And it is going to happen. Jalen 111 00:05:13,748 --> 00:05:15,748 Speaker 7: Hurts is a quarterback and I was the first one 112 00:05:15,788 --> 00:05:19,348 Speaker 7: to say going into last season, knowing they had two 113 00:05:19,388 --> 00:05:23,028 Speaker 7: first round picks that were on the horizon, you know 114 00:05:23,148 --> 00:05:24,988 Speaker 7: this is a make or break year for Jalen Hurts. 115 00:05:25,028 --> 00:05:27,228 Speaker 7: He didn't look great in the Wildcar Round against Tampa. 116 00:05:27,548 --> 00:05:29,708 Speaker 7: He has silenced all doubters. I don't think there's a 117 00:05:29,748 --> 00:05:32,028 Speaker 7: single person who thinks this is either a a bad 118 00:05:32,068 --> 00:05:35,068 Speaker 7: decision by Philly or see some bad deal by the 119 00:05:35,148 --> 00:05:37,828 Speaker 7: Eagles front office. You can bicker about how much guaranteed 120 00:05:37,948 --> 00:05:40,268 Speaker 7: was gotten given and was it too much, too little, whatever, 121 00:05:41,188 --> 00:05:43,308 Speaker 7: We're such a different place twelve months later than we 122 00:05:43,308 --> 00:05:45,548 Speaker 7: were last year that it is no doubt Jalen Hurts, 123 00:05:45,548 --> 00:05:47,868 Speaker 7: his team and his players are the happiest.

Why did they do this? And 128 00:05:54,708 --> 00:05:56,788 Speaker 6: it speaks to Jaalen Hurts and what he was able 129 00:05:56,788 --> 00:05:58,948 Speaker 6: to do this past season. And I'm home and I'm 130 00:05:58,988 --> 00:06:01,108 Speaker 6: looking at the news, I'm thinking, all right, Patrick Mahomes 131 00:06:01,108 --> 00:06:04,428 Speaker 6: signed his deal.

He loves Jalen Widdle and it's almost 175 00:07:47,548 --> 00:07:49,708 Speaker 1: exclusively because he does that penguin thing and my kids not. 176 00:07:49,748 --> 00:07:51,068 Speaker 1: He wants to jump and I said, we'll see how 177 00:07:51,068 --> 00:07:51,508 Speaker 1: school goes. 178 00:07:51,508 --> 00:07:52,148 Speaker 2: Wa waita wait. 179 00:07:52,428 --> 00:07:55,308 Speaker 1: I picked him up from third grade yesterday. He comes 180 00:07:55,348 --> 00:07:57,028 Speaker 1: out of school and says, can I have the Jalen 181 00:07:57,068 --> 00:07:59,148 Speaker 1: Hurts jersey. It's the first thing he said the kids 182 00:07:59,148 --> 00:08:01,068 Speaker 1: are talking about. I go, what do you mean, why 183 00:08:01,108 --> 00:08:02,948 Speaker 1: do you want Jalen Hurts because he's rich? 184 00:08:03,508 --> 00:08:05,508 Speaker 2: Can I come, we can do better than that. He's 185 00:08:05,508 --> 00:08:07,148 Speaker 2: a lot more than just reach. He wants to jail 186 00:08:07,228 --> 00:08:07,868 Speaker 2: and Hurts jersey. 187 00:08:08,028 --> 00:08:09,748 Speaker 1: But I think it's fascinating because I always say the 188 00:08:09,828 --> 00:08:12,708 Speaker 1: jersey for a kid is an investment in not only 189 00:08:12,748 --> 00:08:15,388 Speaker 1: a player on the field, it's a player off the field, 190 00:08:15,428 --> 00:08:16,908 Speaker 1: and it's a player that is going to stay with 191 00:08:16,948 --> 00:08:18,108 Speaker 1: his team for a while. And you don't want to 192 00:08:18,108 --> 00:08:19,988 Speaker 1: buy that jersey and then he's gone. And I look 193 00:08:19,988 --> 00:08:22,548 Speaker 1: at those pictures there of Hurts and the number one 194 00:08:22,628 --> 00:08:26,028 Speaker 1: he's wearing the Michael Jordan I'm Back T shirt, Like that. 195 00:08:26,468 --> 00:08:28,948 Speaker 2: Looks like future potential face of the league. Stuff. Like 196 00:08:28,988 --> 00:08:29,708 Speaker 2: he has that. 197 00:08:29,548 --> 00:08:33,188 Speaker 1: Type of charisma, he has that type of class and 198 00:08:33,468 --> 00:08:34,788 Speaker 1: his reputation likes his teammates. 199 00:08:34,788 --> 00:08:36,508 Speaker 2: That's really cool. And I will buy a Jalen Hurts 200 00:08:36,588 --> 00:08:37,908 Speaker 2: jersey for my son. 201 00:08:38,308 --> 00:08:38,748 Speaker 7: Can I just. 202 00:08:38,748 --> 00:08:40,388 Speaker 1: Sprinkle this out here, just can I be a little 203 00:08:40,388 --> 00:08:42,388 Speaker 1: bit of Devil's advocate, just to just inject a little 204 00:08:42,388 --> 00:08:44,788 Speaker 1: because we're also a wash in this incredible story from 205 00:08:44,868 --> 00:08:47,308 Speaker 1: college and this great young man, and we know we've 206 00:08:47,308 --> 00:08:49,548 Speaker 1: talked about that for a year. Philly is a very 207 00:08:49,588 --> 00:08:52,828 Speaker 1: skeptical fan base, so I just want to acknowledge them. 208 00:08:53,268 --> 00:08:55,988 Speaker 1: Is there any sense of nervousness around the table at 209 00:08:55,988 --> 00:08:58,708 Speaker 1: all that Jalen Hurts has played one great season? Just 210 00:08:58,748 --> 00:09:01,908 Speaker 1: one like this is not three years in the making. 211 00:09:02,228 --> 00:09:05,468 Speaker 1: He had one excellent season. Is there any other sense 212 00:09:05,508 --> 00:09:07,988 Speaker 1: of nervousness that this same front office and the same 213 00:09:08,028 --> 00:09:10,708 Speaker 1: personnel it gave one hundred and seven million dollars guaranteed 214 00:09:10,748 --> 00:09:13,148 Speaker 1: to Carson wins just a few years ago, and everyone says, 215 00:09:13,148 --> 00:09:15,308 Speaker 1: we got it, it's the future, It's incredible. We're gonna 216 00:09:15,308 --> 00:09:17,428 Speaker 1: buy my kid of Carson Winster. How those jerseys looking. 217 00:09:17,828 --> 00:09:19,668 Speaker 1: I just want to put this out there. It is 218 00:09:19,788 --> 00:09:22,708 Speaker 1: not an extensive body of work. It is short and 219 00:09:22,748 --> 00:09:26,028 Speaker 1: it is spectacular. But I think the twenty twenty one 220 00:09:26,068 --> 00:09:28,228 Speaker 1: season he was, you know, kind of shaky finding his way, 221 00:09:28,348 --> 00:09:31,868 Speaker 1: very young, and last year was medi York. Absolutely, we've 222 00:09:31,908 --> 00:09:34,748 Speaker 1: seen some before where it becomes an outlier season for 223 00:09:34,788 --> 00:09:38,068 Speaker 1: a young player and that level play does not keep up. 224 00:09:38,428 --> 00:09:41,028 Speaker 2: I just any other town, maybe not. I'm sure there 225 00:09:41,068 --> 00:09:41,628 Speaker 2: are people in Phi. 226 00:09:41,828 --> 00:09:42,108 Speaker 7: I don't know. 227 00:09:42,188 --> 00:09:43,988 Speaker 1: It's a lot of money for one great season, and 228 00:09:44,028 --> 00:09:45,468 Speaker 1: I love him and I don't want to spit in 229 00:09:45,468 --> 00:09:47,868 Speaker 1: the wind right now. But we're talking about the football here. 230 00:09:47,948 --> 00:09:49,668 Speaker 1: The story is not what's going to earn him this money. 231 00:09:49,668 --> 00:09:50,988 Speaker 1: We know he is a great story in college and 232 00:09:51,028 --> 00:09:54,148 Speaker 1: all that stuff. I want to see that year after 233 00:09:54,268 --> 00:09:56,628 Speaker 1: year of excellence is what that contract is. And he's 234 00:09:56,668 --> 00:09:58,868 Speaker 1: got work to do like this, they're coming for him. 235 00:09:58,948 --> 00:10:01,188 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll turnative. And I hear you on that, and 236 00:10:01,188 --> 00:10:04,308 Speaker 7: I bere because I did have some Philly people saying 237 00:10:04,628 --> 00:10:06,548 Speaker 7: it's a lot of guaranteed, you know, and it is 238 00:10:06,548 --> 00:10:11,668 Speaker 7: no trade, no trade callill that said the alternative abyss. 239 00:10:11,948 --> 00:10:14,628 Speaker 7: They got lucky here, they struck gold. They found a 240 00:10:14,668 --> 00:10:16,548 Speaker 7: guy in the second round who is better than their 241 00:10:16,628 --> 00:10:19,268 Speaker 7: number two overall pick. Like, the alternatives, are you really 242 00:10:19,308 --> 00:10:21,788 Speaker 7: going to go indoor number three? I think they were, like, I. 243 00:10:21,748 --> 00:10:22,428 Speaker 2: Just hope he's great. 244 00:10:22,668 --> 00:10:25,028 Speaker 7: Super Bowl, he was as good as any quarterback we've 245 00:10:25,028 --> 00:10:25,628 Speaker 7: seen in that game. 246 00:10:25,988 --> 00:10:26,108 Speaker 2: Sho. 247 00:10:26,948 --> 00:10:28,788 Speaker 7: He should have been mvving a loss. He should have 248 00:10:28,828 --> 00:10:29,388 Speaker 7: and he got that. 249 00:10:29,468 --> 00:10:33,188 Speaker 6: So I feel like, yeah, wait one more year and 250 00:10:33,228 --> 00:10:34,628 Speaker 6: he does continue. 251 00:10:34,228 --> 00:10:35,828 Speaker 1: To then what now you do all that? You do 252 00:10:35,868 --> 00:10:37,308 Speaker 1: all that I'm not saying they did the wrong thing. 253 00:10:37,348 --> 00:10:38,628 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I know, I hope he's a great 254 00:10:38,628 --> 00:10:40,348 Speaker 1: player every single year. I want to see it, and 255 00:10:40,428 --> 00:10:41,948 Speaker 1: we don't know. It's the most simple size. 256 00:10:42,028 --> 00:10:44,068 Speaker 4: Okay, So if finesan it's twenty twenty, for what you 257 00:10:44,108 --> 00:10:46,948 Speaker 4: know of Carson Wentz's best and Jalen Hurts his best, 258 00:10:46,948 --> 00:10:48,828 Speaker 4: who would you rather pay for five years. 259 00:10:48,668 --> 00:10:49,428 Speaker 7: For the next five years? 260 00:10:49,508 --> 00:10:51,228 Speaker 2: Well, the wins thing was complet because he kept getting 261 00:10:51,308 --> 00:10:51,868 Speaker 2: hurt and. 262 00:10:51,828 --> 00:10:53,908 Speaker 1: I think they were locker room missiones with Wentz, so 263 00:10:53,988 --> 00:10:54,788 Speaker 1: I would say Hurts. 264 00:10:54,868 --> 00:10:57,468 Speaker 4: That's that's the point I think is that they found 265 00:10:57,628 --> 00:11:00,428 Speaker 4: you know, if all talent was all equal, I think 266 00:11:00,508 --> 00:11:02,908 Speaker 4: the style and this personality of this player that we 267 00:11:02,988 --> 00:11:05,468 Speaker 4: keep looking at these pictures and there is a real 268 00:11:05,548 --> 00:11:08,628 Speaker 4: match here between the city of Philadelphia and this young man, 269 00:11:08,668 --> 00:11:10,708 Speaker 4: and I think there's a value in that. And I 270 00:11:10,748 --> 00:11:14,108 Speaker 4: know the football value is wildly important. But for someone 271 00:11:14,148 --> 00:11:16,508 Speaker 4: to have his voice saying a quote from the video 272 00:11:16,588 --> 00:11:19,268 Speaker 4: that we just played, I had a purpose before anyone 273 00:11:19,308 --> 00:11:22,188 Speaker 4: had an opinion. That's a remarkable thing for a twenty 274 00:11:22,228 --> 00:11:24,828 Speaker 4: four year old or younger to say about himself about 275 00:11:24,868 --> 00:11:27,828 Speaker 4: his awareness for his football trajectory for all the things 276 00:11:27,828 --> 00:11:29,908 Speaker 4: that while his story is remarkable and at times we 277 00:11:29,948 --> 00:11:32,348 Speaker 4: can say I can't believe this actually happened, it did happen. 278 00:11:32,388 --> 00:11:34,268 Speaker 4: And this is why he is the human in the 279 00:11:34,308 --> 00:11:36,868 Speaker 4: adult that he is and why I think the franchise 280 00:11:36,908 --> 00:11:39,108 Speaker 4: went to hang their hat on this young man because 281 00:11:39,148 --> 00:11:41,628 Speaker 4: Carson Wentz may have been talented at the time, there 282 00:11:41,668 --> 00:11:43,908 Speaker 4: was a real personality match here that works for the 283 00:11:43,908 --> 00:11:45,948 Speaker 4: city of Philadelphia, because I think the Eagles that we 284 00:11:46,068 --> 00:11:48,828 Speaker 4: have known from an emotional leader standpoint, I'm thinking of 285 00:11:48,828 --> 00:11:51,388 Speaker 4: Brian Dawkins in particular, the guy who's in the middle 286 00:11:51,388 --> 00:11:54,468 Speaker 4: of the huddle. This is that same feeling, that same 287 00:11:54,548 --> 00:11:57,068 Speaker 4: heartbeat of this young man matches the Eagles, and I 288 00:11:57,068 --> 00:11:59,388 Speaker 4: think they paid him justly so and he's great. 289 00:11:59,228 --> 00:12:00,828 Speaker 7: Quarterback, yeah, no doubt about it. 290 00:12:00,868 --> 00:12:03,268 Speaker 6: And I think those type of question marks always come 291 00:12:03,308 --> 00:12:06,348 Speaker 6: out when it's a huge deal. You want to pick 292 00:12:06,348 --> 00:12:08,508 Speaker 6: it apart and figure out, right, is this the best match? 293 00:12:08,548 --> 00:12:11,388 Speaker 6: I just looked for Philadelphia. The season he had last 294 00:12:11,468 --> 00:12:13,388 Speaker 6: year where they went to play in the Super Bowl. 295 00:12:13,548 --> 00:12:15,988 Speaker 7: It's like just no alternative. It's just like, this is 296 00:12:16,028 --> 00:12:16,748 Speaker 7: the going rate. 297 00:12:16,628 --> 00:12:18,388 Speaker 6: To pay a quarterback at the top of the market. 298 00:12:18,588 --> 00:12:20,468 Speaker 6: You hold out and say I'm gonna wait one year 299 00:12:20,468 --> 00:12:22,828 Speaker 6: and see what he does. To your point, if it's 300 00:12:22,868 --> 00:12:24,468 Speaker 6: not as good as the season, you're like, all right, 301 00:12:24,468 --> 00:12:26,268 Speaker 6: well now we don't have to pay him as much. 302 00:12:26,468 --> 00:12:28,508 Speaker 6: But if he does continue to ascend and go up, 303 00:12:28,548 --> 00:12:32,148 Speaker 6: now just like well justin Herbert just got paid, Joe 304 00:12:32,188 --> 00:12:33,788 Speaker 6: Burrow just got paid. Well, now we're gonna have to 305 00:12:33,788 --> 00:12:36,308 Speaker 6: pay him more than those two guys. To Striker's point, 306 00:12:36,348 --> 00:12:38,628 Speaker 6: when you do it first, you kind of you're able 307 00:12:38,628 --> 00:12:40,388 Speaker 6: to get it at the lower end because as soon 308 00:12:40,388 --> 00:12:43,348 Speaker 6: as these next two guys sign, and possibly three guys 309 00:12:43,348 --> 00:12:46,028 Speaker 6: including Lamar Jackson, they may go out and beat what 310 00:12:46,108 --> 00:12:48,948 Speaker 6: Jellen Hurts numbers are. But of course one year just 311 00:12:49,108 --> 00:12:50,668 Speaker 6: question marks. We used to say when I was playing 312 00:12:50,708 --> 00:12:52,628 Speaker 6: all the time, Hey, to get paid, it only takes 313 00:12:52,628 --> 00:12:54,228 Speaker 6: one great year. There's no point of going out the 314 00:12:54,428 --> 00:12:57,188 Speaker 6: rookie year, balling out. Get to that contract year, go 315 00:12:57,308 --> 00:12:59,308 Speaker 6: off and you can get paid and figure it out 316 00:12:59,308 --> 00:12:59,708 Speaker 6: from there. 317 00:13:00,188 --> 00:13:03,188 Speaker 7: He also is playing on such a small salary last 318 00:13:03,268 --> 00:13:05,548 Speaker 7: year that this is what makes it's so astronomical. But 319 00:13:05,548 --> 00:13:08,748 Speaker 7: it also Herbert and Burrow they're gonna make real money. 320 00:13:08,908 --> 00:13:10,908 Speaker 7: These last two years. In their rookie contracts, they were 321 00:13:10,908 --> 00:13:13,308 Speaker 7: first and sixth overall pick. Hurts has not made real 322 00:13:13,348 --> 00:13:15,148 Speaker 7: money yet, so I think that one is cool for him. 323 00:13:15,708 --> 00:13:16,908 Speaker 7: I don't know if we have the time, we're gonna 324 00:13:16,908 --> 00:13:19,468 Speaker 7: get to the Lamar stuff. Yeah, I mean, and I 325 00:13:19,468 --> 00:13:20,988 Speaker 7: think we're gonna get to it later in the show. 326 00:13:21,148 --> 00:13:23,068 Speaker 7: But I I want to ask you because you seem 327 00:13:23,188 --> 00:13:26,068 Speaker 7: very happy and excited and you think that Jalen Hurt's 328 00:13:26,108 --> 00:13:28,948 Speaker 7: got a great deal, and yet you're also the saying 329 00:13:28,908 --> 00:13:31,188 Speaker 7: I'm saying Lamar should keep on fighting this fight. So 330 00:13:31,228 --> 00:13:31,788 Speaker 7: we'll get to that. 331 00:13:37,748 --> 00:13:41,628 Speaker 2: This is a good draft. This is a draft quarterbacks. 332 00:13:42,668 --> 00:13:45,388 Speaker 8: Right again to the Georgia coning crowd byers peep down, the. 333 00:13:53,108 --> 00:13:59,988 Speaker 2: Money drops to. 334 00:14:00,028 --> 00:14:03,388 Speaker 6: The five chop chop touch down. 335 00:14:04,868 --> 00:14:08,068 Speaker 2: He looks to his rules to his left stop. So 336 00:14:08,108 --> 00:14:09,188 Speaker 2: it looks need to be a joked. 337 00:14:15,988 --> 00:14:18,708 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, is that Timmy here again? We're just a 338 00:14:18,788 --> 00:14:21,628 Speaker 7: week away from the NFL Draft of the nineties. Then 339 00:14:21,628 --> 00:14:24,228 Speaker 7: we're getting to go. I take a lot of pride 340 00:14:24,388 --> 00:14:26,668 Speaker 7: in doing two mock drafts, one of them the week 341 00:14:26,708 --> 00:14:28,988 Speaker 7: before the draft, one of them the day of the draft. 342 00:14:29,348 --> 00:14:31,308 Speaker 7: The first one is put out there into the ether 343 00:14:31,668 --> 00:14:34,508 Speaker 7: and it is torn apart to bits. Teams get back 344 00:14:34,508 --> 00:14:37,188 Speaker 7: to me, they say, here's actually something. The second one 345 00:14:37,228 --> 00:14:38,908 Speaker 7: is a little more accurate, and we're trying to get 346 00:14:38,908 --> 00:14:41,148 Speaker 7: as accurate as we can. I always prefaceent with this, 347 00:14:41,188 --> 00:14:43,708 Speaker 7: and Kylie did a great public service announment for me yesterday. 348 00:14:44,068 --> 00:14:47,028 Speaker 7: This is not what I would do. These are just 349 00:14:47,028 --> 00:14:50,268 Speaker 7: some possibilities and some things from what I'm hearing around 350 00:14:50,348 --> 00:14:52,988 Speaker 7: the league. But I took some big swings. My first 351 00:14:53,028 --> 00:14:56,108 Speaker 7: mock draft is up right now on NFL dot Com. 352 00:14:56,108 --> 00:15:00,028 Speaker 7: We just clicked post and without further ado, let's get 353 00:15:00,068 --> 00:15:03,268 Speaker 7: into it all right, Picks one through eight. My first 354 00:15:03,308 --> 00:15:08,388 Speaker 7: mock draft is slow down and digest. Bryce Young goes first, 355 00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:12,268 Speaker 7: a Colt's logo. Second, the Colts could trade up with 356 00:15:12,308 --> 00:15:14,948 Speaker 7: a division rival Texans. Here's what I propose on the 357 00:15:14,988 --> 00:15:21,468 Speaker 7: mock draft, a trade of either DeForest Buckner and the 358 00:15:21,508 --> 00:15:25,348 Speaker 7: fourth overall pick for the second overall pick number de 359 00:15:25,428 --> 00:15:28,308 Speaker 7: Forest Buckner played for Damico Ryans in San Francisco, just 360 00:15:28,308 --> 00:15:33,628 Speaker 7: restructured his contract, or the second round pick and the 361 00:15:33,628 --> 00:15:36,588 Speaker 7: fourth overall pick to move up to number two. 362 00:15:37,028 --> 00:15:37,308 Speaker 9: C J. 363 00:15:37,468 --> 00:15:38,628 Speaker 7: Stroud goes to the Colts. 364 00:15:38,628 --> 00:15:38,868 Speaker 2: Three. 365 00:15:38,908 --> 00:15:42,948 Speaker 7: The Cardinals stand put and they get Willy Anderson four. 366 00:15:42,988 --> 00:15:46,308 Speaker 7: In a shock, the Texans they go Tyree Wilson, they 367 00:15:46,348 --> 00:15:48,628 Speaker 7: go defense, no quarterback. They trade out of two. They 368 00:15:48,668 --> 00:15:55,028 Speaker 7: got five Anthony Richardson to Seattle six Jalen Carter. The 369 00:15:55,108 --> 00:16:00,068 Speaker 7: Lions Raiders go big ol'd lineman Peter Skoronski. Wow, Falcons 370 00:16:00,308 --> 00:16:02,908 Speaker 7: go Nolan Smith. Digest that for a little bit. Now 371 00:16:02,988 --> 00:16:07,308 Speaker 7: let's go to the next slide. Okay nine through the 372 00:16:07,548 --> 00:16:11,468 Speaker 7: Okay Bears, Christian Gonzales over Devin Weatherston. The local hero 373 00:16:12,228 --> 00:16:17,788 Speaker 7: Eagles ten Bijon Robinson. You give Jalen Hurts that running 374 00:16:17,788 --> 00:16:19,828 Speaker 7: back and let's go to work. And then here's the shocker. 375 00:16:19,948 --> 00:16:23,308 Speaker 7: Let's go at eleven. The Tennessee Titans take Hendon Hooker 376 00:16:23,388 --> 00:16:27,188 Speaker 7: out of Tennessee, twenty five years old, coming off in 377 00:16:27,228 --> 00:16:31,388 Speaker 7: acl They take him eleventh overall and he'll work with 378 00:16:31,428 --> 00:16:34,988 Speaker 7: Tannehill until he gets healthy. Twelfth, Will Levis is sitting there. 379 00:16:35,228 --> 00:16:37,828 Speaker 7: Texans say we'll take him. It's not their first pick. 380 00:16:38,228 --> 00:16:39,748 Speaker 7: Maybe I'll be their second pick. Maybe not'll be their 381 00:16:39,748 --> 00:16:42,588 Speaker 7: third pick. A quarterback. At twelfth overall, they get Will Levis. 382 00:16:43,148 --> 00:16:48,268 Speaker 7: Jets go a line, Patriots Devin Witherston the full defensive backfield. 383 00:16:48,668 --> 00:16:52,108 Speaker 7: Packers a little salt in the wound, Rogers Jackson Smith 384 00:16:52,308 --> 00:16:55,428 Speaker 7: did Bo take um Ohio State. Sorry Rogers, and Joiner Derey. 385 00:16:55,468 --> 00:16:58,828 Speaker 7: We're gonna give us some talent to Jordan Love Washington, 386 00:16:58,908 --> 00:17:02,668 Speaker 7: Dalton Kincaid a tight end, all right, seventeen, We'll go 387 00:17:02,748 --> 00:17:06,068 Speaker 7: a little faster on the back half. They just sit 388 00:17:06,148 --> 00:17:08,628 Speaker 7: pretty and they get maybe the top tackle in this draft. 389 00:17:08,628 --> 00:17:11,948 Speaker 7: Paris Johnson goes to the Steelers, which means Joey Porter 390 00:17:12,028 --> 00:17:14,908 Speaker 7: is not selected by the Steelers. Instead, the Lions get 391 00:17:14,988 --> 00:17:18,988 Speaker 7: him to go with Jalen Carter, Deontay Banks to the 392 00:17:19,108 --> 00:17:22,348 Speaker 7: Tampay Buccaneers, Lucas van Nest to the Seahawks. The Seahawks 393 00:17:22,348 --> 00:17:24,268 Speaker 7: will get Richardson and van Ness, two of the biggest 394 00:17:24,268 --> 00:17:28,268 Speaker 7: athletic freaks in this draft. Chargers Michael Mayer, the tight 395 00:17:28,348 --> 00:17:31,268 Speaker 7: end of Notre Dame. Ravens sit pretty and get Darnell Right, 396 00:17:31,308 --> 00:17:35,068 Speaker 7: who's a very highly regarded tackle. The Vikings take another 397 00:17:35,068 --> 00:17:41,108 Speaker 7: wide receiver, Jordan Addison out of USC. Then Brian Branch, 398 00:17:41,188 --> 00:17:44,468 Speaker 7: defensive back Alabama does it all for the Jaguars. And 399 00:17:44,548 --> 00:17:47,748 Speaker 7: let's get to our last slide here. Zay Flowers to 400 00:17:47,828 --> 00:17:51,788 Speaker 7: the Giants. They went they got lent Wandale Robinson, an 401 00:17:51,828 --> 00:17:54,068 Speaker 7: undersized wide receiver. Last year, they got another one this 402 00:17:54,148 --> 00:17:56,788 Speaker 7: year was day Flowers. How about the Cowboys going running 403 00:17:56,828 --> 00:18:00,148 Speaker 7: back with Gibbs out of Alabama to pair with Marcus Pollard. 404 00:18:00,788 --> 00:18:04,188 Speaker 7: And then we've got Miles Murphy another defensive end to Buffalo. 405 00:18:04,748 --> 00:18:07,268 Speaker 7: Darnell Washington tight end. Our third tight end of the 406 00:18:07,268 --> 00:18:09,708 Speaker 7: first round goes to the Bengals, and then we finish 407 00:18:09,828 --> 00:18:14,348 Speaker 7: it with Jonathan Mingo late to the Saints, Will McDonald connection, 408 00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:16,868 Speaker 7: Matt Campbell and Nick Sirianni very tight. I got that 409 00:18:16,908 --> 00:18:20,068 Speaker 7: one from Iowa State to the Eagles. Then we end 410 00:18:20,068 --> 00:18:20,908 Speaker 7: with Quinton Johnson. 411 00:18:21,228 --> 00:18:22,108 Speaker 2: They lost Juju. 412 00:18:22,188 --> 00:18:24,428 Speaker 7: They know the wide receivers room is always looking to 413 00:18:24,428 --> 00:18:26,508 Speaker 7: rebuild in Kansas City. They get Quentin Johnson, the big 414 00:18:26,508 --> 00:18:29,108 Speaker 7: guy to TCU. There it is. 415 00:18:32,148 --> 00:18:35,428 Speaker 4: Jamie Well, I have so many things. I was like 416 00:18:35,708 --> 00:18:36,948 Speaker 4: just shotting down questions. 417 00:18:37,508 --> 00:18:39,228 Speaker 1: You feel like that's true, like what we just saw 418 00:18:39,468 --> 00:18:43,268 Speaker 1: in real draft, Like I feel like those are all 419 00:18:43,268 --> 00:18:45,028 Speaker 1: just facts. Yes, that's incredible. 420 00:18:45,268 --> 00:18:46,908 Speaker 4: Well, if it is a fact, this is what I'm 421 00:18:46,948 --> 00:18:50,348 Speaker 4: most fascinated. Yeah, speak on the fact that you have 422 00:18:50,628 --> 00:18:54,188 Speaker 4: the Colts jumping up to two just two spots to 423 00:18:54,268 --> 00:18:57,068 Speaker 4: take a quarterback because is there something there with c J. 424 00:18:57,228 --> 00:19:00,228 Speaker 4: Stroud and why the Texans wouldn't want him in Houston? 425 00:19:00,468 --> 00:19:04,108 Speaker 7: Interesting? So I have heard no buzz on Stroud to Houston. 426 00:19:04,548 --> 00:19:07,068 Speaker 7: I've got the Colts loving Stroud, That's what I've heard. 427 00:19:07,108 --> 00:19:10,748 Speaker 7: They also apparently like Levis, They've like Richardson, the Colts 428 00:19:10,748 --> 00:19:13,508 Speaker 7: are in the market for quarterback. Texans have not been 429 00:19:13,588 --> 00:19:17,308 Speaker 7: outright on quarterback. And it's not just Stroud, it's Richardson included, 430 00:19:17,348 --> 00:19:20,108 Speaker 7: and even Levis, who I've got them taking later on 431 00:19:20,588 --> 00:19:23,588 Speaker 7: in the twelfth overall pick. The Stroud to Houston thinks 432 00:19:23,628 --> 00:19:27,188 Speaker 7: specifically very quiet and one of the things that has 433 00:19:27,188 --> 00:19:29,388 Speaker 7: been mentioned by multiple people, and not the agent and 434 00:19:29,428 --> 00:19:32,548 Speaker 7: of course not the team. Stroud is representative by Deshaun 435 00:19:32,548 --> 00:19:35,468 Speaker 7: Watson's agent. That might be a reluctancy to deal with 436 00:19:35,628 --> 00:19:38,308 Speaker 7: that whole situation. Again, I think that's kind of ludicrous 437 00:19:38,348 --> 00:19:41,668 Speaker 7: if that's actually why they wouldn't. But look, we might 438 00:19:41,708 --> 00:19:44,468 Speaker 7: wake up on Thursday and it might be obvious that 439 00:19:44,508 --> 00:19:47,068 Speaker 7: the Texans are taking c. J. Stroud. But I was 440 00:19:47,108 --> 00:19:49,788 Speaker 7: more intrigued by the Colts love for CJ. Stroud and 441 00:19:49,828 --> 00:19:54,588 Speaker 7: also the potential trade partner, a division rival. Would the 442 00:19:54,628 --> 00:19:56,588 Speaker 7: Texans be willing to trade with the Colts and have 443 00:19:56,668 --> 00:19:59,348 Speaker 7: to look at c. J. Stroud for the next decade 444 00:19:59,508 --> 00:20:01,948 Speaker 7: and if he's really great, know that we passed on 445 00:20:02,028 --> 00:20:04,348 Speaker 7: him and it was our pick that we gave up 446 00:20:04,428 --> 00:20:07,508 Speaker 7: to see him do this. The Giants they were the 447 00:20:07,548 --> 00:20:09,748 Speaker 7: ones that were passed over the Eagles trading with the Cowboys. 448 00:20:09,788 --> 00:20:12,068 Speaker 7: They have to watch Micah Parsons every single day, and 449 00:20:12,508 --> 00:20:16,228 Speaker 7: you look at that draft they deal with that. Stroud 450 00:20:16,268 --> 00:20:17,948 Speaker 7: to the Texans might very well be the case. Ninety 451 00:20:17,988 --> 00:20:20,348 Speaker 7: nine percent of the mox you have out there have 452 00:20:20,508 --> 00:20:23,188 Speaker 7: it went a little different, and I thought, Demiko Ryan's 453 00:20:23,188 --> 00:20:25,548 Speaker 7: a defensive head coach with a GM who's pretty secure. 454 00:20:25,908 --> 00:20:27,868 Speaker 7: They don't have to take the quarterback. 455 00:20:27,748 --> 00:20:29,908 Speaker 2: Tyson Right now. On NFL dot com, Schrager Maker is 456 00:20:29,908 --> 00:20:30,668 Speaker 2: the number one story. 457 00:20:30,708 --> 00:20:33,548 Speaker 1: Okay, if you go a few ticks below it, it 458 00:20:33,748 --> 00:20:36,908 Speaker 1: says Texas GM opening to listening for calls for number 459 00:20:36,908 --> 00:20:37,308 Speaker 1: two pick. 460 00:20:37,668 --> 00:20:39,068 Speaker 2: You're right there next to each other. 461 00:20:39,068 --> 00:20:42,828 Speaker 7: Buddy, Nick Cassearo did not play by the rules. Remember 462 00:20:42,868 --> 00:20:45,908 Speaker 7: he took Derek Stingley before Sauce Gardner last year when 463 00:20:45,908 --> 00:20:48,828 Speaker 7: every mock draft had Sauce before Stingley. Yeah, instingly played 464 00:20:48,828 --> 00:20:49,508 Speaker 7: well as well. 465 00:20:50,108 --> 00:20:52,428 Speaker 6: As I look at this, you have the Texans passing 466 00:20:52,508 --> 00:20:55,148 Speaker 6: up making that trade, Coles get Straut, but the Texans 467 00:20:55,148 --> 00:20:57,508 Speaker 6: still end up getting a quarterback later and Will Levis. 468 00:20:57,908 --> 00:21:01,588 Speaker 6: Five quarterbacks going in the first twelve picks kind of 469 00:21:01,628 --> 00:21:02,668 Speaker 6: insane for a first es. 470 00:21:03,148 --> 00:21:06,428 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's very high, and it's not a great quarterback 471 00:21:06,508 --> 00:21:10,068 Speaker 7: draft where it's like there's you know, three all pros here. 472 00:21:10,148 --> 00:21:12,428 Speaker 7: I just felt the urgency for these teams made sense. 473 00:21:12,788 --> 00:21:15,868 Speaker 7: Anthony Richardson to Seattle is an interesting one. They have 474 00:21:15,988 --> 00:21:19,268 Speaker 7: Geno Smith, They love Geno Smith. Gino's deal is essentially 475 00:21:19,308 --> 00:21:21,628 Speaker 7: one year, twenty seven million dollars, and there's all sorts 476 00:21:21,628 --> 00:21:23,708 Speaker 7: of ways out of it. Geno's thirty two years old. 477 00:21:23,708 --> 00:21:25,508 Speaker 7: I don't think the Seahawks plan on being top five 478 00:21:25,548 --> 00:21:28,988 Speaker 7: again anytime soon. Will Levis was the hardest one for me. 479 00:21:29,028 --> 00:21:31,028 Speaker 7: I didn't know what to do with him because I 480 00:21:31,108 --> 00:21:32,948 Speaker 7: heard the culturally like him. I hear there's some other 481 00:21:32,988 --> 00:21:35,268 Speaker 7: teams that have a high grade on him. But to 482 00:21:35,428 --> 00:21:37,508 Speaker 7: take a quarterback in the first round, you're saying you 483 00:21:37,548 --> 00:21:39,468 Speaker 7: are the guy for me. I gave him to the 484 00:21:39,508 --> 00:21:42,348 Speaker 7: Texans in their second first re pick because it's like, 485 00:21:42,428 --> 00:21:45,268 Speaker 7: all right, we got another guy, we got something else 486 00:21:45,308 --> 00:21:47,908 Speaker 7: in common. It's almost like, we'll take him if he's there. 487 00:21:47,948 --> 00:21:50,188 Speaker 7: But I don't have many teams for Levis. I really don't. 488 00:21:50,428 --> 00:21:51,668 Speaker 2: Got a little cute with the Levis. 489 00:21:51,708 --> 00:21:53,348 Speaker 1: I think, I know, I think I think it would 490 00:21:53,388 --> 00:21:55,948 Speaker 1: be It would be adorable if the textants like, hey, 491 00:21:55,988 --> 00:21:57,148 Speaker 1: we still got a quarterback. 492 00:21:57,388 --> 00:21:58,788 Speaker 2: But maybe it works out that way. 493 00:21:59,028 --> 00:22:01,468 Speaker 1: The Levis thing's fascinating because I'm watching your face like 494 00:22:01,508 --> 00:22:03,108 Speaker 1: sprinkle the different express you can't. 495 00:22:02,948 --> 00:22:03,708 Speaker 2: Find that I've seen it. 496 00:22:03,748 --> 00:22:06,588 Speaker 7: I've seen guys Paxton Lynch. I've seen guys that when 497 00:22:06,628 --> 00:22:08,068 Speaker 7: they don't have a place going to drive that they 498 00:22:08,148 --> 00:22:08,548 Speaker 7: just fall. 499 00:22:09,028 --> 00:22:09,188 Speaker 2: Yes. 500 00:22:09,268 --> 00:22:11,588 Speaker 7: Last year, everyone's like, Malik Willison, can you Pickett? And 501 00:22:12,068 --> 00:22:13,428 Speaker 7: pick it? When twenty and none of the other guys 502 00:22:13,428 --> 00:22:14,388 Speaker 7: I taken in the first round. 503 00:22:15,228 --> 00:22:18,468 Speaker 1: The fun picks some of the headliners we know, including 504 00:22:18,468 --> 00:22:20,028 Speaker 1: the Bears. The Bears are at nine. 505 00:22:20,068 --> 00:22:21,188 Speaker 2: You know that we used to be at one. They 506 00:22:21,228 --> 00:22:21,668 Speaker 2: go to nine. 507 00:22:21,708 --> 00:22:24,308 Speaker 1: B Jon Robinson and Devin Witherspoon on the board. You've 508 00:22:24,308 --> 00:22:26,268 Speaker 1: got them taking the corner. Christian gonzales I. 509 00:22:26,268 --> 00:22:29,428 Speaker 7: Think that makes a lot of sense. He is a gamer, 510 00:22:29,628 --> 00:22:32,948 Speaker 7: he is a athlete, and I know that this is 511 00:22:32,988 --> 00:22:34,468 Speaker 7: one of those deals. You're like, well, what do you 512 00:22:34,508 --> 00:22:36,428 Speaker 7: mean he's a gamer and an athlete. They're all gamers 513 00:22:36,428 --> 00:22:42,588 Speaker 7: and athletes. This one here different body size, taller, leaner. 514 00:22:42,668 --> 00:22:45,468 Speaker 7: I feel like he could fit Eberflus's defense. And I 515 00:22:45,468 --> 00:22:48,268 Speaker 7: also just I'm hearing more and more it's fifty to 516 00:22:48,308 --> 00:22:51,228 Speaker 7: fifty Weatherspoon or Gonzales, and in this case, I think 517 00:22:51,228 --> 00:22:53,668 Speaker 7: Gonzales might make more sense for the Bears and Weatherspoon. 518 00:22:54,908 --> 00:22:57,348 Speaker 4: That is, it was a to jump the local the 519 00:22:57,428 --> 00:22:58,828 Speaker 4: local products would be interesting. 520 00:22:58,908 --> 00:22:59,908 Speaker 7: Let's go past catchers. 521 00:23:00,188 --> 00:23:01,348 Speaker 2: You you really intrigued me. 522 00:23:01,388 --> 00:23:03,188 Speaker 4: This is what I wrote down on my sheet, in particular, 523 00:23:03,228 --> 00:23:05,668 Speaker 4: the back end always interest, where the vikings are taken. 524 00:23:05,708 --> 00:23:09,268 Speaker 4: You had him go wide receiver Jordan Addison, the Bengals 525 00:23:09,308 --> 00:23:13,988 Speaker 4: getting Darnell Washington the tight end out of Georgia. That late, 526 00:23:14,068 --> 00:23:16,668 Speaker 4: to me, would be one of the most ridiculous steals 527 00:23:16,708 --> 00:23:18,948 Speaker 4: to bolster and offense that's already so powerful. 528 00:23:19,188 --> 00:23:20,548 Speaker 7: And then Quentin Johnson just. 529 00:23:20,508 --> 00:23:23,708 Speaker 4: Adding I mean, Mike, if Patrick Mahomes had that talented 530 00:23:23,748 --> 00:23:26,108 Speaker 4: big wide receiver walk us through some of these pass cutchers. 531 00:23:26,148 --> 00:23:27,908 Speaker 7: Here's the deal. There's not a I mean this is 532 00:23:27,948 --> 00:23:30,028 Speaker 7: going to sound like you're like, say, not a great 533 00:23:30,028 --> 00:23:30,948 Speaker 7: wide receiver draft. 534 00:23:31,148 --> 00:23:31,428 Speaker 2: It's not. 535 00:23:31,588 --> 00:23:34,668 Speaker 7: There's no Randy Moss, there's no Calvin Johnson. There might 536 00:23:34,708 --> 00:23:36,788 Speaker 7: not be a Justin Jefferson or Jamar Chase. And at 537 00:23:36,908 --> 00:23:40,108 Speaker 7: comes from the scouting community. So we've a receiver taken 538 00:23:40,188 --> 00:23:42,948 Speaker 7: fifteenth overall, but I have him going there. It could 539 00:23:42,988 --> 00:23:45,188 Speaker 7: as easily be Quinton Johnson. It could have easily been 540 00:23:45,228 --> 00:23:47,948 Speaker 7: Jordan Addison. They're wide over It is a great tight 541 00:23:48,028 --> 00:23:51,108 Speaker 7: ends draft. Yeah, so I think you're gonna see potentially 542 00:23:51,588 --> 00:23:54,508 Speaker 7: three tight ends in the first round, maybe four. And 543 00:23:54,588 --> 00:23:56,308 Speaker 7: I don't think the wide receivers are going to be 544 00:23:56,308 --> 00:23:59,108 Speaker 7: going top ten, maybe not even top fifteen. I don't 545 00:23:59,108 --> 00:24:01,708 Speaker 7: think it's a great wide receiver draft compared to other years, 546 00:24:01,828 --> 00:24:05,268 Speaker 7: and yet the tight end draft is awesome. Vikings feeling's gone. 547 00:24:05,388 --> 00:24:07,548 Speaker 7: It was a fit. Addison can play, you can move. 548 00:24:08,028 --> 00:24:10,108 Speaker 7: Viking's quarterback was something I wanted to figure a way 549 00:24:10,148 --> 00:24:11,668 Speaker 7: to do. I thought it makes sense. It just didn't 550 00:24:11,708 --> 00:24:12,508 Speaker 7: with on the way this went. 551 00:24:12,828 --> 00:24:15,988 Speaker 1: Peter, you're not just the pure mocker. You're also not 552 00:24:16,068 --> 00:24:19,188 Speaker 1: the pure insider. You're also a content provider and you 553 00:24:19,268 --> 00:24:22,068 Speaker 1: understand the content that comes to this table. I'm looking 554 00:24:22,108 --> 00:24:24,068 Speaker 1: at the Green Bay Packers. 555 00:24:24,388 --> 00:24:25,308 Speaker 2: How much is. 556 00:24:25,308 --> 00:24:29,028 Speaker 1: That of you wanting it? Or are you hearing whispers? 557 00:24:29,068 --> 00:24:32,508 Speaker 1: Because it explained, contextualized for everybody. Why that is a 558 00:24:32,588 --> 00:24:33,108 Speaker 1: crazy pick? 559 00:24:33,148 --> 00:24:39,588 Speaker 7: One hundred percent wanting it, zero percent whispers. Never gone. 560 00:24:40,188 --> 00:24:42,348 Speaker 7: They've never gone receiver with Aaron Rodgers. 561 00:24:42,348 --> 00:24:43,828 Speaker 2: Never tight end either, Never tight end. 562 00:24:44,428 --> 00:24:46,268 Speaker 7: You know you want to go on Pat McAfee and 563 00:24:46,348 --> 00:24:48,948 Speaker 7: talk about all the old people from the old front 564 00:24:48,988 --> 00:24:51,148 Speaker 7: office and how good they are and how great they are, 565 00:24:51,228 --> 00:24:53,508 Speaker 7: and how you are going to retire. This is what 566 00:24:53,668 --> 00:24:55,388 Speaker 7: I want. I want content. I want them to come 567 00:24:55,388 --> 00:24:56,628 Speaker 7: out in the first round. I want them to take 568 00:24:56,628 --> 00:24:59,068 Speaker 7: a wide receiver and say we love Jordan Love and 569 00:24:59,108 --> 00:25:01,788 Speaker 7: we want to give them all the tools that are possible. Look, 570 00:25:02,068 --> 00:25:03,868 Speaker 7: I think there every receiver is going to be on 571 00:25:03,868 --> 00:25:05,228 Speaker 7: the board, and each tight end is on the board. 572 00:25:05,228 --> 00:25:08,228 Speaker 7: When the Packers are up, it would be irresponsible not 573 00:25:08,348 --> 00:25:11,028 Speaker 7: to give Jordan Love a pass catching talent in this draft. 574 00:25:11,268 --> 00:25:13,508 Speaker 2: Again, not a great wide. 575 00:25:13,308 --> 00:25:15,348 Speaker 7: Receiver draft where there's all these guys, not a bunch 576 00:25:15,388 --> 00:25:17,388 Speaker 7: of blue chippers in this draft, but if they can 577 00:25:17,468 --> 00:25:20,148 Speaker 7: get Jordan Love another receiver, based on what the receiver's 578 00:25:20,188 --> 00:25:22,748 Speaker 7: room looked like last year and who left Alan Lazard, 579 00:25:22,828 --> 00:25:24,068 Speaker 7: I think it makes the most sense. 580 00:25:24,348 --> 00:25:28,028 Speaker 1: Sorry, Rogers might be irresponsible to draft out of spite though, like. 581 00:25:28,108 --> 00:25:36,788 Speaker 7: Potentially the Rams running back tour did not go well 582 00:25:36,868 --> 00:25:40,428 Speaker 7: last year. It went awful. They lost a key role 583 00:25:40,428 --> 00:25:43,708 Speaker 7: player at every position, and it included Matthew Stafford, who 584 00:25:44,108 --> 00:25:47,468 Speaker 7: only appeared in nine games before being sidelined with elbow 585 00:25:47,508 --> 00:25:50,908 Speaker 7: issues efter getting hurt against the Saints. Stafford was in 586 00:25:50,988 --> 00:25:55,028 Speaker 7: Los Angeles yesterday at Rams voluntary off season workouts and 587 00:25:55,068 --> 00:25:58,068 Speaker 7: he was asked how he was feeling ahead of the 588 00:25:58,108 --> 00:25:59,068 Speaker 7: next season. 589 00:26:00,788 --> 00:26:02,508 Speaker 5: I mean, I felt really confident I was coming back. 590 00:26:02,828 --> 00:26:05,268 Speaker 5: I feel like more people were that's confident that than 591 00:26:05,308 --> 00:26:07,148 Speaker 5: I was. But no, I was ready to go, ready 592 00:26:07,148 --> 00:26:09,628 Speaker 5: to play, you know, as soon as I was clear, 593 00:26:09,668 --> 00:26:12,988 Speaker 5: and I feel great, feel healthy, and you know I'm 594 00:26:13,028 --> 00:26:16,988 Speaker 5: not twenty five, but I definitely feel good. 595 00:26:17,348 --> 00:26:17,508 Speaker 3: You know. 596 00:26:17,628 --> 00:26:19,908 Speaker 5: Not probably a human drugs machine like I used to be, 597 00:26:20,828 --> 00:26:23,548 Speaker 5: but I can still get it out there and throw 598 00:26:23,588 --> 00:26:28,188 Speaker 5: it around, you know, a bunch. So it'll be a process, 599 00:26:28,228 --> 00:26:30,228 Speaker 5: as it always is, to try and stay as healthy 600 00:26:30,228 --> 00:26:32,668 Speaker 5: as you possibly can at all times. But I definitely 601 00:26:32,668 --> 00:26:35,308 Speaker 5: feel like I can go out there and compete and 602 00:26:35,348 --> 00:26:38,348 Speaker 5: do everything I want to do, which is fun and 603 00:26:38,388 --> 00:26:39,068 Speaker 5: exciting for me. 604 00:26:41,828 --> 00:26:43,948 Speaker 7: Staffords are a lot of personality but also a lot 605 00:26:43,948 --> 00:26:46,788 Speaker 7: of confidence there for me. Not twenty five, but he 606 00:26:46,788 --> 00:26:48,868 Speaker 7: can still sling it and he's no longer the human 607 00:26:48,948 --> 00:26:49,748 Speaker 7: drugs machine. 608 00:26:49,988 --> 00:26:50,308 Speaker 2: Like that. 609 00:26:50,548 --> 00:26:53,388 Speaker 7: We forget that this Rams team was really good, really 610 00:26:53,468 --> 00:26:56,268 Speaker 7: good two years ago, and they all got injured, everyone 611 00:26:56,428 --> 00:26:59,148 Speaker 7: was out, and yet they still found a way to 612 00:26:59,228 --> 00:27:01,028 Speaker 7: win some games at the end of the season. Let's 613 00:27:01,028 --> 00:27:03,068 Speaker 7: go to next year, though, in a game we call 614 00:27:03,108 --> 00:27:05,388 Speaker 7: wee in and we out scarred off. I'm gonna make a comment. 615 00:27:05,428 --> 00:27:07,908 Speaker 7: You guys tell me if you agree. All right, Though 616 00:27:07,908 --> 00:27:09,828 Speaker 7: the Niners went to the NFT Championship Game and the 617 00:27:09,868 --> 00:27:13,428 Speaker 7: Seahawks went to the playoffs, the Rams should be preseason 618 00:27:13,588 --> 00:27:17,068 Speaker 7: NFC West favorites with a fully healthy Matthew Stafford. Are 619 00:27:17,108 --> 00:27:18,068 Speaker 7: we innery out? 620 00:27:18,148 --> 00:27:22,108 Speaker 6: Jason mccordy really cool hearing Stafford talk human jugs me 621 00:27:22,148 --> 00:27:24,348 Speaker 6: seeing I really enjoy that. But I'm one hundred percent 622 00:27:24,468 --> 00:27:27,948 Speaker 6: out out. The forty nine Ers won the division last year. 623 00:27:27,988 --> 00:27:30,188 Speaker 6: The forty Nineers have been really good. We can easily 624 00:27:30,228 --> 00:27:31,748 Speaker 6: just say, hey, if the forty nine ers have a 625 00:27:31,748 --> 00:27:34,708 Speaker 6: healthy quarterback next year, they are the favorites to win 626 00:27:34,988 --> 00:27:38,188 Speaker 6: that division. They swept the Rams last year, they were 627 00:27:38,228 --> 00:27:40,668 Speaker 6: undefeated in their division last year. I have no reason 628 00:27:40,708 --> 00:27:44,108 Speaker 6: to believe that whether it is brought party, whether it 629 00:27:44,148 --> 00:27:47,308 Speaker 6: is Trey Lance, whether it is Sam Donald at Kyle Shanahan, 630 00:27:47,348 --> 00:27:49,788 Speaker 6: will somehow be able to have the quarterback go out 631 00:27:49,828 --> 00:27:52,388 Speaker 6: there and play competent enough for them to at least 632 00:27:52,468 --> 00:27:55,308 Speaker 6: be the favorites in the preseason to win that division. 633 00:27:55,348 --> 00:27:57,588 Speaker 2: I'm out too, I'm out to I'm going Seattle, though. 634 00:27:57,908 --> 00:28:00,548 Speaker 1: Did you know that the Seahawks are drafting Lucas van 635 00:28:00,588 --> 00:28:01,908 Speaker 1: Ness and Ed Russer for Lo Iowa. 636 00:28:02,068 --> 00:28:03,668 Speaker 2: They're gonna get him in the first. They're gonna get 637 00:28:03,668 --> 00:28:07,188 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson the first. He may take over eventually. Listen. 638 00:28:07,388 --> 00:28:09,068 Speaker 1: I know it was a weird season last year, but 639 00:28:09,108 --> 00:28:11,868 Speaker 1: Peter like everyone wasn't injured. And I saw Ramsey out there, 640 00:28:11,908 --> 00:28:14,388 Speaker 1: I saw Donald out there. They were three and six 641 00:28:14,428 --> 00:28:16,508 Speaker 1: with Stafford. It was terrible, and I know Cooper got 642 00:28:16,548 --> 00:28:18,028 Speaker 1: hurt and it was just this sort of snake bit 643 00:28:18,068 --> 00:28:18,628 Speaker 1: in weird year. 644 00:28:18,788 --> 00:28:19,908 Speaker 2: I like what Seattle's doing. 645 00:28:20,068 --> 00:28:23,508 Speaker 1: It's never super exciting and over the moon nationally for Seattle, 646 00:28:23,508 --> 00:28:25,908 Speaker 1: but they're always solid, they're always there. Think they're getting 647 00:28:25,908 --> 00:28:27,748 Speaker 1: better in the draft. I like van Neess out of Iowa. 648 00:28:27,748 --> 00:28:29,828 Speaker 1: They're gonna get him for sure. That is a deadlock, 649 00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:32,308 Speaker 1: and he'll be coming after Stafford Peter. So I'm going Seattle. 650 00:28:32,748 --> 00:28:35,748 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say you're welcome already to the RAMS social 651 00:28:35,788 --> 00:28:39,348 Speaker 4: media department because this has officially become billboard material, as 652 00:28:39,508 --> 00:28:42,108 Speaker 4: I had to reread this question two times because my 653 00:28:42,308 --> 00:28:45,548 Speaker 4: initial reaction was such a visceral. Seriously, is this a 654 00:28:45,628 --> 00:28:48,308 Speaker 4: question that I'm going to go out on this too? 655 00:28:48,348 --> 00:28:51,028 Speaker 4: They are absolutely not the preseason favorites. Even if he 656 00:28:51,108 --> 00:28:52,588 Speaker 4: is healthy, they had a lot of other issues they 657 00:28:52,628 --> 00:28:54,108 Speaker 4: had to fix. They have a ton of new coaches 658 00:28:54,228 --> 00:28:56,068 Speaker 4: as well. They have to get in the mix. So no, 659 00:28:56,188 --> 00:28:57,948 Speaker 4: it's still somebody else besides them. 660 00:28:57,948 --> 00:28:59,668 Speaker 7: I don't even to picko it. Yeah, I would say 661 00:28:59,668 --> 00:29:02,068 Speaker 7: Seattle is to me, and that's shocking considering how good 662 00:29:02,108 --> 00:29:05,028 Speaker 7: San Francisco was. Seattle brings back everyone and Gino and 663 00:29:05,028 --> 00:29:07,268 Speaker 7: they're gonna have two picks in the top twenty. You're right, 664 00:29:08,508 --> 00:29:11,228 Speaker 7: the case for the Rams, the most draft picks of 665 00:29:11,268 --> 00:29:13,108 Speaker 7: any team this year. Yeah, they KNOW'M a first rounder, 666 00:29:13,188 --> 00:29:15,908 Speaker 7: but they load up on the draft. They get cut back, 667 00:29:15,948 --> 00:29:18,628 Speaker 7: they get Donald back, they get Stafford back, they get 668 00:29:18,668 --> 00:29:21,148 Speaker 7: cam Akers back, they get all these guys back, and 669 00:29:21,188 --> 00:29:24,508 Speaker 7: they are truly under the radar. We're talking way under 670 00:29:24,508 --> 00:29:26,428 Speaker 7: the wind, maybe justifying you're not. 671 00:29:26,388 --> 00:29:29,508 Speaker 1: Asking if they're making playoffs, should they be preseason favorites? 672 00:29:29,548 --> 00:29:30,508 Speaker 2: And I don't think they should. 673 00:29:34,108 --> 00:29:35,748 Speaker 7: Welcome back, mister Scott Peel. 674 00:29:38,828 --> 00:29:42,708 Speaker 2: Good morning everyone. Great to see everyone, Scott. 675 00:29:43,108 --> 00:29:45,708 Speaker 7: There were big news that was made out of Philadelphia yesterday. 676 00:29:45,868 --> 00:29:48,948 Speaker 7: Just as we left the set, our NFL Network insiders 677 00:29:48,988 --> 00:29:52,508 Speaker 7: Ian Rapaport and Tom Pelisaro broke into programming to tell 678 00:29:52,588 --> 00:29:54,988 Speaker 7: us that Jalen Hurts had agreed to a five year, 679 00:29:55,028 --> 00:29:58,588 Speaker 7: two hundred and fifty five million dollar contract extension. When 680 00:29:58,588 --> 00:30:01,348 Speaker 7: you look through the details of the deal, and I 681 00:30:01,388 --> 00:30:04,268 Speaker 7: know you know Jalen Hurts quite well, what stood out 682 00:30:04,548 --> 00:30:06,948 Speaker 7: you about the contract and the extension. 683 00:30:08,748 --> 00:30:11,508 Speaker 8: Well, it wasn't so much the details of the contract, Peter, 684 00:30:11,548 --> 00:30:13,228 Speaker 8: because we're still getting some of that in. But what 685 00:30:13,388 --> 00:30:15,348 Speaker 8: stood out to me was what a great job they 686 00:30:15,508 --> 00:30:19,348 Speaker 8: did getting this done quickly. Getting it done quietly, because 687 00:30:19,388 --> 00:30:21,828 Speaker 8: what the Eagles have done here is they've bought a 688 00:30:21,868 --> 00:30:25,348 Speaker 8: little extra time in terms of they have eliminated a 689 00:30:25,548 --> 00:30:28,148 Speaker 8: huge distraction. We would have been going into the season 690 00:30:28,148 --> 00:30:30,588 Speaker 8: where he was due to make four point three million dollars. 691 00:30:30,828 --> 00:30:33,028 Speaker 8: Everyone would have been talking about how little that was. 692 00:30:33,268 --> 00:30:36,588 Speaker 8: They'd been talking about the potential franchise number, which this 693 00:30:36,668 --> 00:30:39,548 Speaker 8: past season for quarterbacks was about thirty two million dollars. 694 00:30:39,948 --> 00:30:41,308 Speaker 2: We will see what. 695 00:30:41,428 --> 00:30:44,468 Speaker 8: That thirty six million dollars over the next two years 696 00:30:44,508 --> 00:30:47,348 Speaker 8: looks like compared to the details of the contract. But 697 00:30:47,468 --> 00:30:50,508 Speaker 8: to me, this was so smart by the franchise because 698 00:30:50,548 --> 00:30:52,268 Speaker 8: they have eliminated a distraction. 699 00:30:52,708 --> 00:30:54,388 Speaker 2: And the other thing that I really like is the 700 00:30:54,508 --> 00:30:55,508 Speaker 2: length of this contract. 701 00:30:55,508 --> 00:30:57,308 Speaker 8: They didn't go out and try to take too much 702 00:30:57,308 --> 00:30:59,828 Speaker 8: of the player's time, which is sending a message not 703 00:30:59,868 --> 00:31:01,908 Speaker 8: only to Jalen Hurts that he's going to get another 704 00:31:01,908 --> 00:31:03,108 Speaker 8: bite of the apple, but. 705 00:31:03,148 --> 00:31:04,148 Speaker 2: To his teammates. 706 00:31:04,428 --> 00:31:06,148 Speaker 8: But this team is not going to try to take 707 00:31:06,188 --> 00:31:08,708 Speaker 8: advantage of me more than likely when it's my turn 708 00:31:08,748 --> 00:31:10,308 Speaker 8: to come to the table. So to me, again, it 709 00:31:10,348 --> 00:31:13,228 Speaker 8: was the elimination and the distraction, so everyone can go 710 00:31:13,268 --> 00:31:15,188 Speaker 8: out and play and he can go out and be 711 00:31:15,228 --> 00:31:20,068 Speaker 8: the best player that he is and simply lead Scott. 712 00:31:20,108 --> 00:31:22,468 Speaker 1: I think about five seconds after the news broke about 713 00:31:22,508 --> 00:31:24,908 Speaker 1: Jalen Hursts, we started thinking about Lamar Jackson. What are 714 00:31:24,908 --> 00:31:27,708 Speaker 1: the ripple effects of the Hurtz contract for Lamar and 715 00:31:27,788 --> 00:31:28,908 Speaker 1: some of the other young guys too. 716 00:31:30,948 --> 00:31:32,988 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think what happens here is once the real 717 00:31:33,068 --> 00:31:35,508 Speaker 8: numbers are in, it's going to mean a couple of things. 718 00:31:35,588 --> 00:31:37,828 Speaker 8: What's going to happen is we are going to understand 719 00:31:38,148 --> 00:31:42,508 Speaker 8: more clearly what the new market is for players in 720 00:31:42,548 --> 00:31:45,708 Speaker 8: this age range. You mentioned Joe Burrow, you mentioned Justin Herbert. 721 00:31:46,508 --> 00:31:50,268 Speaker 8: The complicated one continues to be Lamar Jackson because the 722 00:31:50,308 --> 00:31:53,668 Speaker 8: floor has been set previously, the market has been set previously, 723 00:31:53,988 --> 00:31:57,068 Speaker 8: and this deal still hasn't gotten done with Lamar. And 724 00:31:57,108 --> 00:32:00,668 Speaker 8: again no one's is surprised. I'm still perplexed by the 725 00:32:00,708 --> 00:32:03,748 Speaker 8: whole thing. But when you look more back to Burrow 726 00:32:04,028 --> 00:32:06,268 Speaker 8: into Herbert, to me, this is going to tell This 727 00:32:06,428 --> 00:32:09,948 Speaker 8: tells me that Justin Herbert is probably going to get 728 00:32:09,948 --> 00:32:12,828 Speaker 8: a deal that's similar, maybe a little bit more, because 729 00:32:12,868 --> 00:32:16,348 Speaker 8: he has proven more in terms of the winning and 730 00:32:16,468 --> 00:32:20,628 Speaker 8: he's done a little bit more. And if he waits longer. Usually, again, 731 00:32:20,708 --> 00:32:24,028 Speaker 8: those tides continue to rise. In terms of the Herbert deal, 732 00:32:24,348 --> 00:32:26,308 Speaker 8: I can't imagine the deal being as good as the 733 00:32:26,388 --> 00:32:29,628 Speaker 8: Hurts deal. In the future. Maybe it'll be close, but 734 00:32:29,708 --> 00:32:33,388 Speaker 8: to me, he hasn't done nearly as much as Hurts. 735 00:32:33,748 --> 00:32:37,028 Speaker 8: So to me, those markets are in and around being set, 736 00:32:37,068 --> 00:32:40,068 Speaker 8: it should make those deals get done quicker, sooner and earlier. 737 00:32:41,468 --> 00:32:43,468 Speaker 4: Scott, let's talk about some players that are coming into 738 00:32:43,468 --> 00:32:47,308 Speaker 4: the league as soon as late next week. Specifically, Bryce Young, 739 00:32:47,428 --> 00:32:50,788 Speaker 4: Alabama quarterback, has canceled the remaining scheduled draft visits he 740 00:32:50,868 --> 00:32:56,148 Speaker 4: has with teams. How do we decipher this, Jamie, I don't. 741 00:32:55,988 --> 00:32:58,628 Speaker 8: Think we read too much into it, quite honestly, because 742 00:32:58,708 --> 00:33:01,748 Speaker 8: it's simple. He has visited the teams that matter the most, 743 00:33:02,108 --> 00:33:04,188 Speaker 8: and I think people don't understand what happens with some 744 00:33:04,228 --> 00:33:06,468 Speaker 8: of these players. If they go on too many visits, 745 00:33:06,988 --> 00:33:10,188 Speaker 8: it becomes a detriment to them. What I mean by 746 00:33:10,228 --> 00:33:13,068 Speaker 8: that is their players spend from the time at their 747 00:33:13,108 --> 00:33:16,108 Speaker 8: season ends until the draft or up until the combine 748 00:33:16,148 --> 00:33:19,188 Speaker 8: and shortly after their Pro day, where they're doing everything 749 00:33:19,268 --> 00:33:22,508 Speaker 8: to get better in terms of their physical condition, their sleep, 750 00:33:22,708 --> 00:33:25,828 Speaker 8: their nutrition, everything is building up to this point, and 751 00:33:25,868 --> 00:33:28,188 Speaker 8: when they start going on all these visits, their sleep 752 00:33:28,188 --> 00:33:30,988 Speaker 8: patterns are messed up. They don't get rest, they're dehydrated 753 00:33:31,028 --> 00:33:34,148 Speaker 8: from flying. And to me, when I look at Bryce Sung, 754 00:33:34,188 --> 00:33:36,908 Speaker 8: he said, hey, listen, I have an idea what's going on. 755 00:33:36,988 --> 00:33:39,468 Speaker 8: My agent has an idea what's going on. Someone at 756 00:33:39,508 --> 00:33:41,788 Speaker 8: the top is clearly talking to him. Why am I 757 00:33:41,788 --> 00:33:44,068 Speaker 8: going to waste my time and let my body get 758 00:33:44,068 --> 00:33:45,788 Speaker 8: out of shape. I need to just sit here and 759 00:33:45,828 --> 00:33:48,188 Speaker 8: continue to focus on my training. So when it comes 760 00:33:48,188 --> 00:33:50,948 Speaker 8: to rookie mini camp, I will be ready physically. I 761 00:33:50,988 --> 00:33:53,788 Speaker 8: haven't lost those three to four weeks of traveling and 762 00:33:53,908 --> 00:33:56,468 Speaker 8: lead up to the draft, and I will be ready 763 00:33:56,508 --> 00:33:58,628 Speaker 8: and I have to worry about soft tissue injuries or 764 00:33:58,708 --> 00:34:01,268 Speaker 8: problems of not being in shape when I report to 765 00:34:01,348 --> 00:34:02,108 Speaker 8: Rookie Mini Camp. 766 00:34:03,668 --> 00:34:06,708 Speaker 6: Scott, let's talk about one of his former teammates at Alabama, 767 00:34:06,788 --> 00:34:09,428 Speaker 6: Will Anderson. And I know you've worked for Alabama as 768 00:34:09,468 --> 00:34:12,068 Speaker 6: a consultant. What are your impressions of him as a 769 00:34:12,108 --> 00:34:13,748 Speaker 6: player but also as a person. 770 00:34:15,388 --> 00:34:18,308 Speaker 8: Well, I want to talk about the person to start off. 771 00:34:18,428 --> 00:34:20,228 Speaker 8: I spent a couple of years with him, being around 772 00:34:20,268 --> 00:34:24,228 Speaker 8: the program and everything that you saw there, the authenticity, 773 00:34:24,308 --> 00:34:27,228 Speaker 8: the genuine nature of who he is in terms of 774 00:34:27,268 --> 00:34:30,668 Speaker 8: being a kind person, a good person, a respectful person. 775 00:34:30,828 --> 00:34:33,068 Speaker 8: I go back and count how many times he said 776 00:34:33,148 --> 00:34:34,788 Speaker 8: thank you to you guys, not only when you were 777 00:34:34,828 --> 00:34:37,748 Speaker 8: on the air, but when you were off air. He's 778 00:34:37,948 --> 00:34:39,788 Speaker 8: just the right kind of guy. And I want to 779 00:34:39,788 --> 00:34:41,788 Speaker 8: tell you this. You know, spending time around that program, 780 00:34:41,828 --> 00:34:46,148 Speaker 8: there's a person there who's Nick Saban's assistant and really 781 00:34:46,188 --> 00:34:47,228 Speaker 8: her chief of staff. 782 00:34:47,228 --> 00:34:48,268 Speaker 2: Her name is Linda Leoni. 783 00:34:48,308 --> 00:34:51,028 Speaker 8: Linda Leoni worked for Belichick for five years in Cleveland 784 00:34:51,388 --> 00:34:53,908 Speaker 8: for parcels, five years in New York at the Jets, 785 00:34:54,188 --> 00:34:56,188 Speaker 8: and then it has been with Nick for fifteen years. 786 00:34:56,228 --> 00:34:59,948 Speaker 8: And Linda Leoni knows every player and every story. When 787 00:34:59,988 --> 00:35:02,348 Speaker 8: I first asked Linda about will Anderson a couple of 788 00:35:02,388 --> 00:35:06,108 Speaker 8: years ago, she said, he's one of the finest players 789 00:35:06,108 --> 00:35:09,148 Speaker 8: and people to ever come through the program, including his family. 790 00:35:09,428 --> 00:35:13,188 Speaker 8: So everything that I know and see in person and 791 00:35:13,268 --> 00:35:16,428 Speaker 8: that you all saw, this guy's a total package. And oh, 792 00:35:16,548 --> 00:35:18,988 Speaker 8: by the way, he is going to be a great 793 00:35:19,028 --> 00:35:21,068 Speaker 8: player in this league, not a good player.
