Thanks for making us part of your day, 11 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,639 Speaker 1: regardless of the platform. We have a trade and it's 12 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: a big one in the NFL. Trent McDuffie an elite corner, 13 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: and there's one or two holes for the LA Rams 14 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: special teams needed to be upgraded. They'll do that in 15 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: the draft. And they need a lockdown corner. They're GM 16 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: less need even discussed it earlier this week, and what 17 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: do you know, They've made a deal with the Kansas 18 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: City Chiefs. Striking when the iron is hot, Matt Stafford 19 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: only a couple of years left. They're going to give 20 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: up a first rounder at the end of this year's draft, 21 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: a fifth and a six and a third rounder next year. 22 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: So Trent McDuffie, in my opinion, because the Rams pass 23 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: rush is better than the current Chiefs fast rush, will 24 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: be even a better player. And he was a good 25 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: one for KC. He'll be an even better player for 26 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: the Rams. So the Rams said, hey man, we are 27 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: in a super Bowl window. We are going to go 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: for it. And Trent McDuffie is a lot better than 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: the twenty ninth pick because the Rams have two first 30 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,919 Speaker 1: round picks that he just gave up one. Here's another 31 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: team that should do that, the Chicago Bears. They are 32 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: now this morning the odds on favorite design Raiders edge 33 00:01:55,320 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: rusher Max Crosby for it. Ben Johnson's an aggressive guy, 34 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Polls an aggressive GM. Go for it. It's the 35 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: number one need edge pressure. It's not a roll of 36 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: the dice. He's an elite player, leads the NFL since 37 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: he entered in tackles for losses. He's two years younger 38 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: than Miles Garrett, who was just, you know, the defensive 39 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 1: player of the year. And here's another reason why you 40 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: have to strike when the iron is hot in the NFL. Yesterday, 41 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: the Bears all pro center Drew Dolman, who they just 42 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 1: paid a fortune do last year, retired at twenty seven. 43 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I'm done, interior O lineman beats up physically, 44 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm done. And so the Bears with Caleb Williams were 45 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: the number one pass blocking unit and the number seven 46 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: run blocking unit and anchoring. That was this great center 47 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: from the Falcons that they made a deal for a 48 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: year ago. Drew Dolman, he just retired and so he 49 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: only got two years left. With Caleb Williams on the 50 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 1: rookie deal, he's going to get expensive real quick. And 51 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: here's another example of what being passive does in the NFL. 52 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: Do you see this story yesterday the goofy Cincinnati Bengals 53 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: let Trey Hendrickson walk. Well, they've been talking about a 54 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: new contract for two years. They don't sign him. They're passive, 55 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: they don't trade him, and they just let him walk 56 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: out the door. They get nothing for him. What are 57 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: you doing? So Kansas City in a similar situation where 58 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 1: they have to rebuild parts of their team. They need 59 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: draft picks. So Kansas City is like, we'll take another one. 60 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: That'll give the Chiefs two first round picks, a fifth 61 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: and a six and a third next year. Next year 62 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: is the quarterback draft, right, they don't need one, so 63 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: you gotta go for it. The Bears are picking twenty fifth, which, 64 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: by the way, if Vegas gave Crosby, traded Crosby to 65 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: the Raiders, and Vegas got the bears twenty five pick, 66 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: you know who's available potentially at the twenty fifth pick. 67 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza's number one college target, Omar Cooper the receiver. 68 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: So you could unite for Nando Mendoza with its number 69 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: one split end in college. What a great And that's 70 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: a huge need for the Raiders wide receivers their number 71 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: one need outside of quarterback. So it works for everybody. 72 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: Twenty eight year old Max Crosby, the Rams. The Rams 73 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: just did it. Rams said, listen, we need one element 74 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: to our roster. We're close, but we got to get 75 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 1: an elite corner. There were some good corners in the 76 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: first round of the draft. They're like, nah, let's go 77 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: get McDuffie. And I think the Bears are in the 78 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: same situation. Two more years left than that, Caleb Williams 79 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: rookie deal. And oh, by the way, here's Max Crosby, 80 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: who apparently loves Bears coach Ben Johnson. 81 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: He's one of the best in the league, one of 82 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: the best play callers without a doubt. He does an 83 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 2: incredible job in all facets of offense, you know what 84 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: I mean, like the run game, to the past game, 85 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 2: to the triggeration. He's really got all that. I mean 86 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: somebody I respect a lot, and I really I can't 87 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: say much bad things about him, you know what I mean. 88 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: Every time you go out there against an offense led 89 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 2: by him, like you got to be on you and 90 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: be at your best because he's going to make it difficult. 91 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, respect the hell out of him. 92 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, sounds like he's just planting a seed for the 93 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. Rams just did it this morning. Hey, Matt Stafford, 94 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: two more years. Let's get solve put Bondo on the 95 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: one big problem with his team corner. Get up some 96 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: draft picks, even the first round pick, and Max Crosby 97 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: is a more valuable player than even Trent McDuffie, who's 98 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: a great corner. Okay, so this week now there are 99 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: those who said we were just trying to stoke the 100 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: fire and it was no big deal. But I have 101 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: been saying the honeymoon is over for Luca with the Lakers. 102 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: Remember when ad came to the Lakers the first year 103 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 1: they win the COVID Championship. Oh, it was all Bouquet's 104 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,239 Speaker 1: flowers rainbows. Next year he comes in out of shape. 105 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: He was honeymoon was over. Lebron wasn't happy that point forward. 106 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis never knew if he was in shape. The 107 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: honeymoon was over. Right now, James Harden, he's played in 108 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: nine games for the Calves. They're eight and one in 109 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: games he's played. Oh, it's the honeymoon period. Way to 110 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs. So Luca last year working out in the 111 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: off season. Everybody bought in. But eventually your game's your game, 112 00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: and defensively there's just limitations and shortcomings. He also has 113 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: to have the ball. So the Lakers really do need 114 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: to view everything because they're not a championship team this 115 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: year through the prism of what can we surround Luka 116 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: Donzich with to protect him, not elevate him, because he 117 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: has the ball in his hands all the time. Set 118 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: some screens, he'll elevate himself. He doesn't need offensive elevation. 119 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: He's got the ball and he's got control what he 120 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: needs is protection on the other end, and so that's 121 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: the relationship between Luca and JJ. Reddick will be as 122 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: strong as the roster they construct for him, because remember, 123 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: superstars in this league are only truly content when you 124 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: can take away from their responsibilities the thing they don't 125 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: love to do. Magic Johnson not a great defender. So 126 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: the Lakers gave up Norm Nixon, a multiple time All Star, 127 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: for Michael Cooper. All right, so Michael Cooper, I don't 128 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: think he ever made an All Star team. He was 129 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: a great defender, but that's what Magic needed. They let 130 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: go of a more talented player, Norm Nixon, to get 131 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: one that could compensate for the weakness of Magic defensively. 132 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: Michael Cooper, Kobe Bryant. They didn't need wings, they didn't 133 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: need ball control, they needed Bigs shack Er, Pal Gasol. 134 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: So eventually Kobe could control and facilitate the offense with 135 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: Luca rim protectors. Remember when he was in Dallas. They 136 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: made that deal. They got like PJ. Washington, not a 137 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: great player, but a big long rim defender Boom. Luca 138 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: was never happier. So as far as the you know 139 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: that little confrontation on the sideline, JJ Reddick says, no 140 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: big deal at all. 141 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: Those things happen, you know, not every game, but they 142 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 3: happened very frequently. You know, sometimes you have to rehash 143 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 3: him with the player or you know, as a teammate. 144 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 4: Sometimes it happens player to player. 145 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 3: It just it's it's a competition, and you know, there's 146 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 3: two guys here who, in this case, are trying to 147 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 3: win a basketball game and and be on the same 148 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 3: page about stuff. 149 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: Luca's going to get much happier when we stopped talking 150 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: about his defensive liabilities because right now, the Lakers roster 151 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: and it's not Lucas's fault or Lebron's fault doesn't protect either, 152 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: it really does. It just shines a light and it 153 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: puts a magnifying glass on his weakness because the Lakers 154 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: now are just a bunch of lobsided players who need 155 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: the ball, and Luca's got to have the ball. All right. 156 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: We've got ourselves. Our first big free agent trade came 157 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: down a minute before we went on the air. The 158 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: Rams are giving up a first, a fifth, and a 159 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: sixth and a third next year, not the hole for McDuffie. 160 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: Top five or six corner in the NFL who will 161 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: now go to the Rams with a more consistent pass rush. 162 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: He'll be the highest paid at this point, probably highest 163 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: paid defensive player they have. They're going to work in 164 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: a new deal. But I think what the Rams are 165 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: sending the bat signal is we're going for it. We're 166 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to start paying some of these defensive guys 167 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: in the next three years. We're going for it. Matt 168 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 1: Stafford getting closer to forty. I think Caleb Williams two 169 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: years left on the rookie deal. Max Crosby the betting favorite, 170 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: he'll be a bear Poles, Ben Johnson hyper aggressive guys. 171 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: I'd love to see him go for it. What do 172 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: you make of the Rams CHIEFSA What does it say 173 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: about the Kansas City Chiefs? J? 174 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 5: Mack Yeah, Kansas City essentially Colin the Chiefs just don't 175 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 5: have a lot of talent on that roster. I mean, 176 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 5: we talked about this for a couple months now. Imagine 177 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 5: going through your roster, free agencies coming up, You're up 178 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 5: against the cap and you're like, damn, we just we 179 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 5: can't pay McDuffie. We need talent. We got to trade him. 180 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 5: They got a good houl. I would say it's good 181 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 5: pick for the Chiefs. But Colin, you look at that 182 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 5: defense in the youth and the lack of talent. I mean, 183 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 5: are they a top three or four team in the AFC? 184 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 5: I know, just with Mahomes and Reid, you're a contender, But. 185 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't think they're a top two roster in their 186 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: own division. 187 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 5: I don't think that's a hot take either. I mean, listen, 188 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 5: it's a good trade for them. 189 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 6: They need picks. They certainly got that. 190 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 5: I think the Rams is a home run because I 191 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 5: was just looking at their lineup. Lake, you know, the 192 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 5: Quinton Lake who was injured last season. He was kind 193 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 5: of a chess piece that played a lot of safety, 194 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 5: but a lot of in the slot too. He can 195 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 5: now go back to roaming a safety. McDuffie slides into slot. 196 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 5: I think this is huge for the Rams. They've got 197 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 5: to be the Super Bowl favorites at this point, right, Yeah, 198 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 5: as a two time All Pro you're getting yeah. 199 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: All right, great stuff. 200 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 6: Be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 201 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 6: and neon Eastern non a em Pacific on Fox Sports 202 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 6: Radio FS one and the iHeartRadio app. 203 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: Hey, it's Rob Parker and Calvin Washington from The Odd 204 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: Couple on Fox Sports Radio. 205 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 7: In addition to hearing us live weeknights from seven to ten 206 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 7: pm Eastern on Fox Sports Radio, we are excited to 207 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 7: announce brand new YouTube channel for the show. 208 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: That's right. 209 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 5: You can now watch The Odd Couple live on YouTube 210 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 5: every day. 211 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 7: All you gotta do search Odd Couple FSR on YouTube 212 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 7: again YouTube, Just search Odd Couple FSR.

So 221 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: not all trends in the NFL workout. For a while, 222 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: very shortly, there was the running shoot didn't work, the 223 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:05,079 Speaker 1: Wildcat offense lasted about you know, twelve weeks eventually didn't work, 224 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: and undersized quarterbacks to uh Kyler, Bryce Young's fourteen and thirty, 225 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: Johnny Manzel, Dylan Gabriel, three of the last four seasons. 226 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: Kyler can't. He didn't play a full season. So the 227 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: NBA is a tall man's game, and the NFL is 228 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,959 Speaker 1: a big, strong man's game, and I think Kyler's super talented. 229 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: But I'll give you an example of this morning. I 230 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: went and looked at the height. Forget the names, forget 231 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: the players. The height of the top ten passer ratings 232 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: in the NFL. The height number one is six four, 233 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: then six to three, then six four, six', two six,' 234 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: five six four. Sixty four the short guy six, to 235 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 1: one sixty five. Sixty two who's the? Short guy oh 236 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: brock perty who has as, a coach the Quarterback Whisper, 237 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: kyle shanahan Who May mac jones look very viable last 238 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: year and we all thought his career whizzle And brought 239 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: pretty's a seventh.

End COMBO so I Think russell wilson 245 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: got a lot of guys drafted that, were undersized and, 246 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: you know he had about an eight to nine year 247 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: Period With, marshawn lynch, you know with a semi stacked 248 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: ross with the best defense.

At linebacker the front four needs. No, 288 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 5: introduction now the secondary. Is elite adding, mcduffee offense your. 289 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 5: Setate receiver you got great tight ends they want with 290 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 5: three tight ends, this year their running back room. 291 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: Is. 292 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 6: Loaded yep what do they. 293 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 5: Do it with the pick and? THE teens i believe. 294 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: It's, thirteenth yes they would go for a wide RECEIVER. 295 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: From us see. McKai lemon he solves their special teams 296 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: return Duties And DeVante adams is about thirty two or thirty, 297 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: three interest so he would be the Future alongside pooka 298 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: and he would solve their return duties. For punt remember 299 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: that big turnover. They had, Oh yeah so he solves 300 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: two of their problems and McDuffie solves their. Corner problem 301 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: so they got, a first second and. THE third i 302 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: would guess they'd go, wide receiver, offensive tackle and safety 303 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: and they're ready. To. 304 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 5: ROLL interesting i always think swing offensive Linemen haven stein 305 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 5: retired and now at, right tackle there's some. Question mark 306 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 5: although the fifth round or they played did. Do, WELL 307 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 5: colin i will, just say if You're, the rams remember 308 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 5: McVeigh and sneid don't go to. The combine, they send, 309 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 5: you know their troops who are going to do all. 310 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: The interviews my guess is they sent there on the. 311 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 5: Ground folks they took a look at the. Defensive backs 312 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 5: they spoke. To them, they, said guys we can't find 313 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 5: someone who's to have the impact or near it of. 314 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 5: A McDuffie let's go. Grab him let's give up the 315 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 5: twenty ninth and some. Other picks this to me is 316 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 5: a home Like A grand slam For. The rams For, 317 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 5: THE chiefs i think it's a. GOOD deal, i mean 318 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 5: as you, said earlier. 319 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: They're gonna have two first, round picks so, right there 320 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: they can solve their tackle situation in one of those. 321 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: TWO picks, I mean i think they have to go 322 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: get a right tackle that, that's paramount and then the. 323 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: Other pick it's not a good running, back draft or 324 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: maybe they get lucky in the running back love falls. 325 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: To them they take him and a tackle late in the. 326 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: First round late, first round you got four or five 327 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: potential interesting, tackle PROSPECTS so i think they can solve 328 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: some of the. Stuff surrounding they also need an, edge 329 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: rusher but you could pick that up in the. Second 330 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: round so they're gonna have now two. To ones, A 331 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 1: second i think they have.

BEING schdor i was shocked 362 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 5: to see. The Odds Are tye simpson going To the 363 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 5: jets are plus. TWO fifty i don't know who's setting, 364 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 5: these lines But the jets To Draft. 365 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 6: Tie simpson they're not taking. 366 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 1: Him early we. Know this, of all they're not taking. 367 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: Him Early the steelers make the. Most sense first, of 368 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: All the STEELERS have i think. TEN picks i may be. 369 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: Shorting them they have ten or, Eleven, picks okay so 370 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: they And the steelers frankly have to get younger and cheaper. 371 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: On defense but they don't need. A ton what they 372 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: need is a future quarterback and then they can load 373 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: UP because i think offensively they need a number. Two 374 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: receiver they need a quarterback for. The FUTURE then i 375 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: would go heavy defense to get cheaper, on defense but 376 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: it could End up being'll tell you, right now it 377 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: could be a very very good draft For the steelers 378 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: if they Could land simpson and a number two receiver 379 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: and then just load up. The defense, mike McCarthy he 380 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: is slowly pivoting this which we talked about, for years 381 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: to an offense. First Franchise and I'VE got, I got 382 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: i really believe what. TEN picks i could See the 383 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: steelers moving up not, a ton but give away a 384 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: four maybe to move up a few spots to get him. 385 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 5: Mid first what if the owner steps in, and says 386 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 5: a the last time we drafted a quarterback who had 387 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 5: just one hot shot Year Was.

March 682 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:02,840 Speaker 1: madness but reportedly college basketball may try to screw it 683 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 1: up and go from sixty eight teams to. Ninety eight it's, like, timeout. 684 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:13,439 Speaker 1: Timeout timeout, last year the average margin in the first 685 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: round was. Seventeen points do we need? It double THE 686 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 1: blowouts i mean were there were twenty of the games 687 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:27,240 Speaker 1: were double. Digit differences many were twenty point. Blowouts plus 688 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: so coach k on the rumors of, tournament expansion. 689 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 11: That's a, big mistake, You know, like one there are 690 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 11: less teams capable right now than, ever before and. 691 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: There are many have knots and it's not. 692 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 11: Their FAULT and i don't think you mess with something that, 693 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 11: is gold, you know like. IT'S gold i think the 694 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 11: do thing you should mess with is getting a leadership 695 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 11: group and having them study and see what happens with. 696 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 1: THAT group i mean they already a few years ago 697 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: it was like sixty four teams Starts ON, thursday lfg 698 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: and then they screwed with it because, you know, somebody 699 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: complains somebody feels slided in the. Directional school and now 700 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: it Starts on Tuesday, and wednesday and there's the first 701 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 1: four and, it's like WHAT do i do with? My 702 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: BRACKET do i have to pick? Other games it's like 703 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: like the more people you let into, a club it dilutes. 704 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: The club like. It's perfect it Started, on thursday it was. 705 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: Sixty four there's no reason to be. Sixty eight none 706 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: of those playing teams. Are winning we don't need to 707 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: go to. Ninety eight don't screw. It up. You know 708 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: it's like one of the reasons That the masters is 709 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: so great because THE average pga event has like one 710 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,359 Speaker 1: hundred and. Fifty Golfers the masters under. One hundred that's 711 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: what Makes the. Master special it's the best of. The 712 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 1: best it's why It takes, rory McElroy who seventeen tries to. 713 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 1: Win IT so I and I Think mike krzyzewski pointed. 714 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: Out something and this is the. Real truth the transfer 715 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: portal IN, the nil it's the. Gold rush not everybody. 716 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: Gets rich the people selling the pots and the pans, 717 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: got rich and a handful of people struck rich. With gold. 718 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: Most don't same WITH the nil and the, transfer portal 719 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: it has made the teams at the top in college basketball. 720 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 1: EVEN stronger, I mean michigan is just stacked, with size very. 721 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 1: Rare size but IT'S also i mean there's good and 722 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: there's bad. And everything the transfer portal now allows kids 723 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: to leave just like COACHES. The nil, you know college 724 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 1: athletes are driving some of. These numbers now they. Get 725 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: paid the downside is in, college basketball when you have 726 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 1: three hundred And fifty division one programs. The bottom now 727 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: it's hard for a small let's say a School like Belmont, 728 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: in nashville kind of a, private school good, basketball program 729 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: gets a really, good, player, well boom, You know michigan's 730 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: gonna go. Buy him, In fact michigan's BEST player i 731 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: think was at uab and he was like gonna be 732 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 1: a second. Round Guy and michigan, comes in signs a. Big, 733 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: check boom they lose their best player and he Goes 734 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: to michigan SO the nil and college basketball can really, 735 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: fix holes and a lot of those holes. Are fixed 736 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: it's almost Like the pirates Or the YANKEES triple. A system, 737 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: You Know paul stein's once you gotta, pay him oh 738 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 1: he'll Be. A yankee it's a little like baseball in 739 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: that regard where You've got there is a Gap Between 740 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 1: dodgers yankees. In bottom nobody would. Deny that i've always 741 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: just said, with baseball the middle and top is bigger than. 742 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: YOU think, i mean there's only like four teams that 743 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 1: can WIN The nba championship. Right now toronto should have 744 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,399 Speaker 1: Won The. World series there are seven teams, next Year, 745 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: the Cubs, the Padres, the Dodgers, the yankees the met should, 746 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: be Better the astros if, they're Healthy, the Tigers, the Mariners. 747 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 1: The brewers there's a lot of teams. In baseball the 748 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: middle up is really good. In baseball the. Bottom's bad 749 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: you see get the same thing in college basketball. Right 750 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: now so adding teams would not add teams from the top. 751 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,840 Speaker 1: Or middle it would add teams from. The bottom and 752 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: we do just have. 753 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 4: More. 754 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: Blowouts now Jmack Loves, march MADNESS but i do think 755 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: what makes it special is. Right now with sixty, eight 756 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: teams there are potential upsets on the, first day not, 757 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,439 Speaker 1: a lot but if you go to, ninety eight it's 758 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: just more than twenty four. 759 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 5: Point, blowouts, Possibly Yes, but colin at the, same time, 760 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 5: you know you keep, MENTIONING, BASEBALL, nba nfl there's like, 761 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 5: thirty teams thirty.
