Next, we talked about the first pick, 0:00:18.760 --> 0:00:21.200 number thirteen overall with a Dolphins stick in there and pick. 0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:23.640 Will they move out, will they move up? What will 0:00:23.680 --> 0:00:26.240 happen there? Let's go ahead and get into all the 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.840 Day two, Day three and final Dolphins roster discussions here 0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:32.960 with Kyle Krabs from the Baptist Health Studios inside the 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:36.680 Baptist Health Training Complex. This is the Draft Time Podcast. 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.320 It is part two of the Kyle Krabs annual Dolphins 0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:47.080 Draft Extravaganza on Draft Time Podcast, presented by Lockdown Dolphins Podcast. 0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:48.920 Just trying to make the tyle as long as possible here, Kyle. 0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:51.400 It's a forty two word title that we do on 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.520 the podcast here every single year. Kyle, welcome back in 0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:56.279 my man. How we feel and how's the voice? Did 0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:58.560 it get better over the last two minutes? No, we're 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:02.160 still We're still putting the old college try together. 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:04.680 But that's okay. I feel good about our ability to 0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:05.600 finish here on the mock. 0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:08.240 I mean, I'm looking at a one two, three, four, five, 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:11.680 six seven page Excel sheet document that has all these 0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:15.839 beautifully colored and sordid and grades. It's it's a work 0:01:15.880 --> 0:01:18.800 of art. It's a masterpiece. It's a I'm sure a 0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.360 six plus month labor of love for Kyle. And my 0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:23.360 question for you is, Kyle, I know the work that 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:27.199 you do between freaking September to now to get ready 0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:28.959 for this. The guy will text me at nine forty 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:32.480 eight pm clips of a two lane defensive tackle locking 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:34.360 out in two gaps, Like Kyle, go to bedman or 0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:36.840 watch a movie or something. Nobody's watching football extra a 0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:39.960 lot later than nine, Let's be honest. Sometimes sometimes they're 0:01:40.000 --> 0:01:41.920 all throughout the day and I enjoy them everyone no 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:44.199 matter what time of day they are. But my question 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:46.640 for you is, Kyle, because as someone that got to 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:48.880 like post up for two straight drafts on night one 0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:51.320 and just watch and like open a cold one and 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.680 be a fan and not cover the draft was kind 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:55.560 of fun. But I am excited to get back into 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.200 the first round like we were last year with Chopp. 0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.760 What does draft weekend look like for you? Man? It's 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:01.840 got to be I'm guessing just as busy as the 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:02.800 work is beforehand. 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:05.120 Yeah. So one of the things that I try to do. 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:09.079 So that I have as robust and clean a picture 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.600 as of a possible for Locked On Dolphins with when 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:16.000 they make pick selections is I will update these boards 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.640 in real time as picks are made, so like names 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:22.760 will get grade out and crossed out, so at any 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.359 given point in the draft, I can look and say, hey, 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.120 here's where I think the value is. 0:02:27.840 --> 0:02:29.040 So in Miami picks. 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:32.720 At thirteen, assuming they stay to pick thirteen, I'll know 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:36.519 unequivocally who my best player available was. So that way 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:40.560 I don't have to kind of take the catalog in 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.120 real time when I do the show. So I have 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:44.359 a live stream on Thursday night that I'm doing with 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:46.679 Locked On NFL Scouting, But the rest of it is 0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:49.840 really going to be Dolphins focused in centric content with 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:52.960 stuff in real time, reacting to stuff as it happens, 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:56.799 making content around these picks as they're made. But I'm 0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:58.960 going to live in this document that you're looking at 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:02.280 right now and updated in real time so that you 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.560 know it paints a real time picture of the draft 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:07.320 fold unfold as it unfolds. 0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:10.320 For the Dolphins specifically. 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:10.919 We've come a long way. 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:11.080 Man. 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:12.880 When I first got into the draft back in like 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:15.440 two thousand and three, I used to write down every 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.080 single pick in a composition notebook. For what reason, I 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:19.760 don't know. I just wanted to write them down and 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.079 act like I was doing something and tracking it back 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.920 in my high school days. Real quick to kind of 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:26.880 give a follow up from episode one, which if you 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.280 did not hear that, go back to Monday's Draft Time episode. 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:32.680 We talked about the Dolphins offseason approach cap all like 0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:34.160 all the stuff that you want to talk about from 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.520 an off season perspective, and we concluded it with the 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:39.560 Dolphins first round draft pick discussion. And in that we 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.040 did not get into Tyler Warren content because we talked 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:44.560 about seven defensive players and you did say there was 0:03:44.640 --> 0:03:47.760 no player that would crack that seven player group as 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.520 a potential top of that group player. I'm curious, though, 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.480 because I'm looking at Tyler Warren here as a really 0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:55.560 highly graded player on your board. Where would he factor 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.040 into those seven players we talked about. 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:00.560 So he he's right up there, this same grade as 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:01.200 Will Johnson. 0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:03.080 For me, Now. 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:08.360 That's where you put those players into a tier, you 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:11.800 try to start to separate, you know, positional value kind 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.920 of becomes part of the conversation. I would defer to 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.240 if both were on the board, either Jday Baron or 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:23.400 Will Johnson over Tyler Warren because of the traditional positional value, 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:25.479 and then it is a bigger piece of meat. So 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.160 that's kind of why I like that these are there's 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:31.520 an individual number grade, but it's also more focused on 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:35.200 a tier, so I can look within the tier and say, Okay, 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:39.480 what's the best possible solution of the same players who 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:40.480 fit within the tier. 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:41.839 So Warren's in that tier. 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.720 There would be some iterations of top twelves in which 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.000 Tyler Warren would probably be on the short list and 0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:53.200 get more strong consideration for me, but it would have 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:56.239 to be a very hyper specific type of situation where 0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:01.320 you probably get one quarterback in that scenario. You're probably 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.599 very offensive line light in the first twelve picks for 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:09.080 that scenario where maybe you get Memboo and Will Campbell 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:11.080 or off the board and that's it for offensive linemen. 0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:13.920 I like Josh Simmons from Ohio State a ton, but 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:17.120 with the medical questions there, I just I probably wouldn't 0:05:17.120 --> 0:05:20.160 feel too comfortable without knowing a lot more of what 0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:22.599 the teams know. Just me being somebody who's on the 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.720 outside looking in, I can't imagine that I would would say, Hey, 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:30.560 you know Pat teller tendon issue, I feel really good 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:32.800 about that with you know, as good of a season 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:36.159 as he had. But if they may, if they were to, 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:39.160 in any situation, make that choice, you'd have to assume 0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.040 if they're comfortable with what they found on the medical background. 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.640 Yeah, especially given Greer's comments about needing impact players from 0:05:45.640 --> 0:05:47.200 this year's class. And that's probably gonna be in the 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:48.800 first round. Like you guy, get a guy that's gonna 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:52.240 play in this first round most most likely. Just real quick, 0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:54.920 another quick aside because I'm looking at Ashton Genty here 0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:57.080 and his Great Player's Tribune article. I'm sure you saw it, 0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:02.440 like the quote of Time Football. If I were you, 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:04.440 I would take the guy they can't tackle like that 0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:08.080 ys draft me. That was so cool? What about him? 0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:11.360 Like he's a great player, right, but like the position value, 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.240 You've already got two good backs here, Like what do 0:06:13.240 --> 0:06:14.240 you think about that idea? 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:18.240 It's kind of the same thing as Tyler Warren for me, 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.159 where I can envision a World where if Ashton Genty, 0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:26.039 he's my eighth rated player on the Dolphin specific board 0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:28.320 and the names that are in front of him are 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:33.560 Travis Hunter, Abdol Carter, Jada Baron, Tyler, Warren Mason, Graham, 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.240 Will Johnson, and we mentioned Josh Simmons as a guy 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:40.000 who I really like, but with the medical questions that 0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:44.559 I have, I can't downgrade. Is great because the tape 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:47.240 and the resume is the tape in the resume, but 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:49.839 the risk versus reward at thirteen I probably wouldn't feel 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:53.320 comfortable with. And Genty's in the same tier and bucket anyway, 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.400 so it's not hard for me to imagine where where 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:59.120 he is that the best player available, just authentically the 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:03.040 best player regardless of need. And if you make that decision, 0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:05.880 then you know that would be my focus on it 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:07.360 and how do we make it work with the other 0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.680 players that we have and what other solutions can you 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:11.840 find at the other spots where you have needs. 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.800 Yeah, it's these conversations you have to have because, like 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:19.240 you said, there's hyper specific boards that could create situations 0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:21.240 where you get solutions and maybe you weren't planning on, 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:23.200 so you have to have at least some type of 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:27.040 conversation around these potential options to make yourself prepared for 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:29.200 what could happen come draftneck, because it gets crazier every 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:31.480 single year. It seems like, Okay, Kyle, we've done enough 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.000 thirteenth pick talk. I think we have. Let's let's go 0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:35.480 ahead and get into the second round. Here, we'll take 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.760 our first break. We've talked about the position needs. Chris 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:40.760 Career talked about him in his press conference, like it's 0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:42.760 not really much of a mystery defensive tackle. You've got 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:45.400 some spots to fill there. Right now, we'll see about 0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:46.920 the guard position that there's been a lot of talk 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.400 about Lea Meikenberg as a competition piece at that position, 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.880 which I have to imagine means another veteran or high 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.440 draft pick at that position. Safety, similar thing there, and 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.640 then cornerback obviously, especially in a post Ramsey world if 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.520 and when they do get him traded off the roster. 0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:04.280 So looking at those four spots, and really you can 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.480 go beyond that as well, but those four spots kind 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.200 of the key the keys to hone in on here 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.480 as you look at pick forty eight, like I'm seeing 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:12.880 a bunch of players in those position groups that would 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:14.560 kind of stack up in that glut you have there. 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:16.520 What are you looking for at that position and how 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.800 would it change based upon what could happen in round one, 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:24.360 be it Baron or Johnson versus Kenneth Grant versus Starks 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.960 and emon. Worry like, how does the first round impact 0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:28.760 where you might go in terms of positional value in 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.640 that second round? Take us through pick forty eight. 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.040 Men, Yeah, I think the only thing that would be 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:35.360 off the board for me is potentially a double dip 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:38.800 with the first two picks. Now, there's some spots where 0:08:38.840 --> 0:08:41.400 you could probably afford a double dip where you could 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.720 probably argue at corner if you double dip, then it 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:48.360 was Jday Baron and Benjamin Morrison, for example, the corner 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:53.920 from Notre Dame or Savon Revel from ECU, who was 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.000 a player that's right up there in the top twenty. 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:58.880 But just like Josh Simmons has some medical background stuff 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.680 that probably not willing to commit the thirteenth overall picked. 0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:05.760 But because of that and because the level of competition 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.559 maybe is there later and if you wanted to double 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:10.720 dip in that regard and kind of go to Vonte 0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:14.640 Davis Sean Smith route from that draft class where the 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:15.920 Dolphins double dipped. 0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:19.440 On corners real early. I could get on board with 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:20.360 that kind of vision. Now. 0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:22.200 I think there's a lot of other foundation work that 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:26.520 has to be done in some other places, but generally speaking, 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:28.600 I would be surprised if you double dipped at thirteen 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:33.839 and forty eight. This is probably where you have potential 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.240 to find a needle moving player at offensive guard that 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:42.360 you're expecting to exclusively play offensive guard. I expect Gray's 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:44.600 Abel from North Dakota State it's going to be gone. 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.920 But Donovan Jackson from Ohio State I think has a 0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:51.280 chance to has a chance to be there. Jonas Savinaya 0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:54.640 from Arizona has a chance to be there. Tate Ratleige 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:57.520 from Georgia probably will be there. And those are three 0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.320 names at that spot that I look at and say, hey, 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:02.959 if you want invest in protecting your quarterback and getting 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:05.440 a run game back on track, and getting more long 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:07.760 term security for your offensive line, and getting a cost 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.800 control player where all of a sudden, league average guards 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:15.320 are costing thirteen, fourteen, nineteen million dollars a season, which 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:18.400 he's all this year of agency, might not be a 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:21.440 bad idea to kind of that changes the stereotypes of 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:25.240 positional value for that position in the draft because the 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:27.840 economics there have gone crazy the last two years. 0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:30.320 Yeah. Man, I'm sitting here looking at your board thinking like, 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:32.520 oh yeah, when you first started answering that question, like 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:34.800 he's going to talk about defensive tackles because he's got 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:38.520 Tylee Williams at forty six, You've got Alfred Collins at 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.280 forty nine, Walter Nolan at fifty one, and then I 0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:43.000 thought I had one more, but maybe I'm not seeing it. 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:45.520 But those that's three players that could be on the 0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:48.200 board for you in that spot, and then I'm thinking 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:49.800 you're going to talk about them. Then you talk about 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.079 offensive lineman and they're all there. But now I'm looking 0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:54.360 at the cornerback spot too, and you've got guys right 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:57.000 there as well. So it's almost like to go back 0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.000 to Chris Careers comments, like the draft does kind of 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:02.480 stack up nicely for you could want. So, I mean, 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:05.240 I don't know the question to ask because there's so 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.319 many permutations of how it could go at that position, 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.280 but it kind of sounds like, regardless, Mimi's going to 0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:13.080 be in a position to get a guy at forty eight. 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:17.440 That could be a potential, you know, because like arianti Essery, 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.720 here is a Minnesota attack well Marcus and Bo from 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:22.720 Wake Forest as a guy that like, I think both 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:24.839 those guys could possibly kick inside and play guard too. 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:26.839 That could be part of that equation. Am I am? 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.080 I looking at this as a potential, like, can we 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:31.680 try to find a way to get two picks in 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:33.760 this range because I kind of feel like there's a 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:34.920 lot of guys I like in this position. 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:36.000 Kyle, Yeah, I. 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.920 Think in a perfect world you double the amount of 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:43.680 picks you make on day two because there's a lot 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:47.640 of potential for players. And you mentioned corner right where 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:50.280 if I skip the top four corners that I have 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.840 on the board, including Travis Hunter, I have Trey Amos 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:56.640 from Ole, miss Darian Porter from Iowa State, Benjamin Morrison 0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.360 from Notre Dame, Jacob Parish from Kansas State, Maxwell Harrison 0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.880 from Kentucky, azari A Thomas from Florida State. That's kind 0:12:02.880 --> 0:12:07.000 of like a collective tier of talent. That's six names 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.080 at corner. Now, not all of them are gonna be there, 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:12.000 but you mean to tell me all six are gonna 0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:14.839 be gone? And even if all six are gone, then 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:19.160 you say, okay, defensive tackle, it's Tyler Williams, it's Alfred Collins, 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:22.760 it's Walter Nolan. I would put Darius Alexander from Toledo 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:24.240 in that same bucket as well, So now I got 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:26.720 four names there, and if all those in all the 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:28.560 corners are gone, then you shift your focus to the 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:33.880 offensive line, and it's Donovan Jackson. Predictively speaking, I have 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:35.480 grayz Abel in this bucket, but I think he and 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:38.840 Tyler Booker will be gone. So it's Donovan Jackson. It's 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:43.160 Tate Ratledge, It's Jonas Savignaya, it's ariantay Erserie, It's Marcus 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:46.800 Imbo who can play guarder center on the interior for you, 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:49.520 I think Charles Grant from William and Mary is probably 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.360 a little bit more of a projection as a smaller 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.240 school guy. Maybe you don't want to take that extra 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.880 bisk but I would put him in that bucket as well, 0:12:56.880 --> 0:13:02.280 and that's Jackson, Grant, Ratledge. Savina remarks, that's six. So 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:07.920 that's sixteen names between guard, defensive tackling corner. We didn't 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:12.600 talk about safety yet, so it really does stack what 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.400 in a perfect world you could give me two picks 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:18.120 in the forties and fifties, you can give me a 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:19.679 pick in the seventies, and you can give me a 0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:23.160 pick at ninety eight. And I think you have a 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:26.439 chance to really gobble up a bunch of players. Now, 0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:29.559 I think the thing that does out of everything we 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:32.760 just presented, the biggest thing that I would point to 0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:37.760 is at the safety position. The star semen or a 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:39.920 tier is a tier all in and of its own. 0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:42.520 And then I think you have a Xavier Watson Andrew 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:46.880 mccouba for me, is the next tier down. But where 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:51.280 you have a lot of interchangeable and similar value kind 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:54.160 of pushes closer to ninety eight in my opinion. Where 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.079 now that's Lathan Ransom and Jonash Sanker and Kevin Winston 0:13:57.160 --> 0:14:02.200 and Jalen Reed and Billy Bowman, and you put Craig 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.520 Woodson and Malachi Moore in that bucket as well. Caleb 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:09.320 Ransaw has corner safety capability. Marcus Siegel from Kansas State 0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:11.800 has corner safety capability. Where you talking about ninety eight 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:17.200 or one sixteen, So that that depth and that's where 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:19.080 the sweet spot is for safety. So if you're not 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:22.520 gonna go like needle moving difference maker early. I think 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:26.040 instead of plucking one at forty eight, unless it's too 0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:28.880 good to be true player it's available, just trust that 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:31.320 that run, you're not going to miss the entirety that run, 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:32.160 and you'll have somebody a. 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:32.760 Little later on. 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:35.760 I think that shakes up quite nicely for pick forty 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:37.560 eight and ninety eight. We kind of discussed both those 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:39.920 there and that one question. Let's go ahead and take 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:42.080 a break right there, come back and discuss day three, 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.360 and we'll conclude the podcast with a Kyle Krabs mock draft. 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:47.320 We've already taken our first pick in the first round. 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.920 All round out, round two, two, three, and beyond for 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:52.560 you guys here with Kyle on the show Draft Time Podcast, 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:57.600 brought to you by Auto Nation. Back here with my 0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.600 guest today, Kyle Krabs locked on Dolphins Podcast talking all 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.760 things Dolphins Draft, and Yeah, man, like, just looking at 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.000 that list and the discussion about the players in that 0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:09.800 grouping like it kind of sounds like if somebody were 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.120 and the Chicago Bears are a team that has two 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.560 picks in the forties and maybe could want to get 0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:15.960 back into that first round. I don't know what their 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:17.600 approach would be. But that's like, that's one team that 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:20.280 could do it. It sounds like you might be willing 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:23.320 Kyle to get out of the first round altogether based 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:25.440 upon what you have here in this list between you know, 0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:27.400 picks twenty five through eighty. 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:31.880 Really, yeah, I think there's there is a world that 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:35.480 exists where the player that's on the board at thirteen. 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.960 Is too good to pass up. Yeah, But. 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:46.520 When the conversation becomes the opportunity cost to move out 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:50.800 of that player at potentially, you know, if it's a 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.040 team that's in the top three that passes on a 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:54.920 quarterback and wants to come back up and get in 0:15:54.920 --> 0:16:00.920 front of Pittsburgh. Hypothetically Cleveland has thirty three, sixty seven, 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:05.600 ninety four, one oh four. The Giants have thirty four, 0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:08.880 sixty five and ninety nine and one oh five. And 0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:13.440 you know, so you're talking about potentially moving back twenty spots. 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:14.560 That's a big drop. 0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:19.640 But if it's giving you the picks in this range, 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:24.400 and there's future draft implications that comes as a result 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.520 of that as well, with twenty twenty six draft capital, 0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:30.040 I would be listening. Now, I'm not guaranteeing that I 0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:34.120 would do it, but you can either try to incrementally 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:35.800 slide your way down, or you can get a team 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:37.960 that's really desperate that that is going to give you 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:40.560 the Day two picks you want now and something big 0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:42.480 in the future. And if if you get that, then, 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:45.680 especially if that team's already made a pick in the 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:48.560 top three and got like a needle moving player elsewhere, 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:51.240 I would listen to those phone calls for sure. 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:53.680 And as it stands, a chance to get three impact 0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:56.080 players in those first three picks, the top one hundred 0:16:56.120 --> 0:16:58.680 of this year's draft, and at positions of need to 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.000 it seems like so a pretty good stacked board here 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.200 for us going into date number three. And we'll go 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:04.480 ahead and make those picks at the end of the 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:07.080 podcast here from Kyle. But let's go ahead and pivot 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:08.680 on to the third day of the draft. In a 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:11.760 Saturday morning, some folks might have some draft fatigue. The 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:15.520 real ball knower's, the real fans of the draft will 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.920 be sticking around for all four rounds on Saturday. As 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:21.359 we get into pick one sixteen, which would be the 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:24.679 thirteenth pick made on Day three, and I'm looking at 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:26.400 this list here, you've got a couple of the guys 0:17:26.440 --> 0:17:29.000 we just talked about. You've got some interior defensive linemen, 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:32.160 some receivers, even some more corners in this range. Kyle, 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.520 you look at the third day and you know, based 0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:36.920 upon all the stuff you just discussed for the first 0:17:36.920 --> 0:17:38.720 three picks and maybe you scratch off three of the 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.320 need you have, is this where you start thinking about 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.439 just taking the best player, regardless of positions, because like, 0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:47.760 this is the time where it comes to like you 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:49.840 can't really you know, parse your needs. It's like, just 0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:51.879 take the best player because this is kind of a 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:54.520 not a crap shoot, but it's tough to find hits 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:56.879 at this late in the draft. 0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:59.760 I kind of struggle with this, whether it's a part 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:02.720 of me that says Day three is where you should 0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:07.400 shift your focus to addressing your needs to get more 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:10.199 bodies in and then maybe you compliment that with veteran 0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:15.960 players and hope that develops talent. But I look at 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:20.520 tight end, running back. We didn't talk about these positions 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:24.560 at all, but they're kind of ancillary or complimentary players 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:28.880 that Dolphins probably need another body at least at running back, 0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.400 you know, with with Raheem Moster and Jeff Wilson being gone, 0:18:31.400 --> 0:18:36.439 and off the roster. Uh, another back that you know, 0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:40.080 Alexander Madison that's not a big financial commitment to so 0:18:40.240 --> 0:18:42.080 you know he's gonna have to compete for his spot. 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:45.119 I think you need some more competition. Day three, with 0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:47.840 those picks is the perfect kind of place to do 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:48.639 something like that. 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:49.720 I think that you're you're. 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:54.399 Getting into appropriate window to have another swing of the 0:18:54.400 --> 0:18:56.720 bat at the quarterback position as well, to bring in 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:58.720 a third quarterback. I don't I don't think the Dolphins 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:01.560 should roster just two quarters in season. I think they 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:04.840 would benefit from having a third guy that they carry 0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:07.600 with confidence and is a cost control player at the position. 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:10.960 And on Day three, you're kind of in the point 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.480 where you're expected return on investment for those picks is 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:16.040 diminished automatically just because of where you're at in the draft. 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:18.960 So having somebody who has some traits that you like 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:21.879 and you want to get in house makes all the 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:24.320
