1 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: This One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health. 2 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 2: All Right, welcome into another week of One Bill's Live. 3 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve Tasker with you here on a Monday, 4 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: rocking and rolling with some news that just crossed a 5 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 2: short time ago. Right before we came on the air, 6 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: ESPN's Adam Schefter reporting at Bill's nickel corner, Tarren Johnson 7 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: has agreed to terms on a three year contract extension 8 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: that will make him the highest paid nickel corner in 9 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: the league. Reported three years, thirty one million dollars. We 10 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 2: had mentioned this on last week's show that if the 11 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 2: Bills are going to try to create some more cap space, 12 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: Taron Johnson was the next most likely candidate, at age 13 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 2: twenty eight and in the last year of his deal 14 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 2: here in the twenty four season, coming up an extension 15 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 2: just simply made too much sense. Because his cap hit 16 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: this year was twelve point four million dollars. You would assume, 17 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: and I think it's safe to assume that the Bills, 18 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 2: instructuring this new extension for Taron Johnson, reduced that cap 19 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 2: figure considerably, maybe even cut it in half. That would 20 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 2: be great because then you're saving about six million on 21 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: the cap that would be great news. But congrats to 22 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: Tarran who is coming off a career high ninety eight 23 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 2: tackle season and also had three force fumbles on the year, 24 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: eight pass breakups. Really a monster player up near the 25 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage for one hundred and ninety two pound 26 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: guy like pound for pound, be hard pressed to find 27 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: a more physical player. 28 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, and our good friend Greg Cosell and other people 29 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 3: who have been on the show. Greg mostly though kind 30 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 3: of turned us on early on and Terran's career here 31 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 3: about how unique he was because of their ability to 32 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: stay in that nickel defense in all situations. Now, we 33 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: also heard some analysts people were when Leslie Fraser was 34 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 3: the defensive coordinator, and of course now that Sean mcdermot's 35 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 3: the defensive coordinator, teams were trying to scheme and in 36 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 3: order to get the bills out of that eleven personnel, 37 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 3: trying to get him into some other formation, and they 38 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: would pick on Tarran in the running game. They'd run 39 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: a guard, they'd pull a guard around trying to get him. 40 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 3: Isoed on a guard all the time, and they'd lose. 41 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 3: I mean they lose. Arran was just too much of 42 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: a competitor to get beat like that. So all these 43 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 3: analys that we talked to who watch film and grind 44 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: it away, they all gush about the difference Tarren makes 45 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 3: in the Bill's defense and what the freedom he gives 46 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 3: the coordinators to stay in a defensive personnel set and 47 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: to use him in so many different ways. So congratulations 48 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,119 Speaker 3: to Tarren. He's well deserved, well deserved, I mean the guy, 49 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 3: and he continues to be a tremendous player for the 50 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: Bills despite I mean helped. I don't even know as 51 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 3: he'd gone to the Pro Bowl as a nickel. 52 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: No, but he was second team All Pro last year. 53 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 3: Right, He second team All Pro last year, So he's 54 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 3: starting to get a little bit of recognition. But that's 55 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: a guy who has been tremendous since the day he 56 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: got here and has made a name for himself, not 57 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: only with Bills fans, but the NFL people. 58 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: Last week, when we saw Indianapolis free agent Kenny Moore 59 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: signing a three year, thirty million dollar extension last week, 60 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: we told you keep an eye out because that has 61 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 2: now set the bar for a contract extension for Taron Johnson, 62 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: and we're assuming that this is going to give them 63 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: more cap relief for this year because you know, I 64 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 2: know it's only a three year extension here, but you 65 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: can for all intents and purposes, and the way Adam 66 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: Schefter is reporting it, it's going to run through twenty 67 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: twenty seven. So this so that's twenty five, twenty six, 68 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 2: twenty seven is the extension on the current year. So 69 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 2: they can probably take a lot of the cap figure 70 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 2: for this year of twelve point four and push it 71 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,119 Speaker 2: forward into the three years of the extension and really 72 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: reduce this cap figure this year. 73 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's it's on top of this contract. 74 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 3: So they're gonna finish this contract out. What the specifics are, 75 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 3: we don't know yet. Yeah, but they can move this money. 76 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 3: This year is the point somewhere into those next three 77 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: years or even or even restructured give them money this 78 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 3: year as a bone, you know, going forward, and Garrett 79 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 3: and what they might do is just say, listen, it's 80 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 3: the same deal overall, but this year's money is going 81 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 3: to be into a bonus. We'll give it to you 82 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 3: today and spread it out, spread it out and will 83 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 3: guarantee the second and third year deal of the deal 84 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 3: kind of thing, or at least next year in the 85 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 3: year after. So that's all that stuff is possible. We 86 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 3: don't know the specifics of it, but congratulations to Taron 87 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: Johnson and you think about it too. Poyer's now Miami 88 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 3: Dolphin and Micah Hyde is probably not going to be back. 89 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: Don't know yet, but looks like that way. Terren's like 90 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 3: the last guy standing. 91 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: He's he's the veterans, the veteran. 92 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 3: Guy all of a sudden, So you kind of you 93 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 3: don't want to go as here either, right, Tredavius is 94 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: not here, so and Rasoul Juglas has what eight games 95 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 3: or nine games under his belt, So Terrence as guy. Yeah, 96 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 3: so get your get a guy who's been here in 97 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: the building for a long time, get him signed up 98 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 3: and help him. Let him stabilize that room back there. 99 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 3: That's seen a little bit of turnover this year. Right. 100 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 2: Speaking of Treudevius White, Uh, there was a report over 101 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 2: the weekend that he was scheduled to meet with the 102 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: Rams and the Raiders now that he is a free agent. 103 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 2: As we know, he was a salary cap casualty here 104 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 2: and is also recovering from a torn achilles, which probably 105 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: will not allow him to be ready for the start 106 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 2: of the upcoming regular season, so it'll be very interesting 107 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: to see. I would imagine that for the most part, 108 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: a lot of these teams are just checking in on 109 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: his medical and get their own medical people to get 110 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: their hands on him, to see exactly where he sits 111 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 2: in terms of future playing career. But it's nice to 112 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: hear that he's getting out there and garnering some interest. 113 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: He has not played his last football in the NFL, 114 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: that's for sure. And you know, I mean, there's nobody 115 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 3: in Bill's you know, a part of Bill's mafia who 116 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 3: doesn't wish Trenevius White all yehest I mean, goodness, gracious, 117 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's one of the things. You get 118 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 3: two really rough injuries in a row, completely different ones, 119 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 3: and you know, your career changes. It's not unexpected, but 120 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 3: it's always as part of the reason the league is 121 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 3: what it is. It's a physical game and he's paying 122 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 3: the price for it, there's no question about it. 123 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: So we'll keep an eye on that. There were also 124 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 2: reports over the weekend that the Bills hosted veteran defensive 125 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: tackle Sebastian Joseph Day on a free agent visit. So 126 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: for those that don't know Sebastian Joseph Day was released 127 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: late in the year by the LA Chargers. As a 128 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 2: matter of fact, it happened right before the Bills played 129 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: the Chargers after the coaching change was made. Head coach 130 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,119 Speaker 2: Brandon Staley was relieved of his duties as head coach 131 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 2: for the Chargers late in the season, and we don't 132 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: really know all the circumstances. We obviously weren't there. There 133 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: was some speculation that he was disappointed with that decision 134 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: by ownership, and then he was subsequently released from the 135 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: roster altogether. As an interim coach, Gift Smith took over. 136 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: So he then was picked up by San Francis and 137 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: played the rest of the year for the forty nine Ers, 138 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: including on the playoff run there. But obviously it was 139 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: a free agent after that, because he just signed for 140 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 2: the rest of the year, So he is a free 141 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 2: agent that is out there. I believe he's only about 142 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: twenty eight years old and capable player, has some good 143 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: production in the league, So be really interesting to see, 144 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 2: you know, what happens there, if anything, because I haven't 145 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: heard him making any other visits elsewhere, although who knows, 146 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: maybe that stuff just doesn't leak out from other teams. 147 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 2: But interesting to see that they're still on the hunt 148 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: for more defensive line help because from a numbers standpoint, 149 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 2: the only additions they've made with eight subtractions going to 150 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 2: free agency is bringing day Kwon and aj back, So 151 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: it's still six subtractions from the defensive line room. So 152 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 2: they do need more people to add from a numbers perspective. 153 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 3: And well, I mean, this is going to go on 154 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 3: for the next It's going to go on till the 155 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: beginning of the season. They'll probably and probably in post 156 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 3: draft exactly now they'll what they'll do as well, and 157 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 3: post draft as they'll draft, not draft. Post draft, they 158 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: will sign some rookie free agents or some guys who 159 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 3: were on practice squads last year who were free agents, 160 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: Guys who have some traits or some you know, some 161 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 3: upside perhaps, but this, you know, they've got to get 162 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 3: to ninety guys, and they got a long way to 163 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 3: go to get there. So that's it's gonna be. Let's 164 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: see the Bills have Let's see they have how many 165 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 3: guys do they have signed here? I don't know, I 166 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 3: can't remember how to get Uh, they must have like 167 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 3: thirty guy and there's not very many guys. Are you 168 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: talking specifically for the Bills. 169 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, players on the roster, under contract, players under contract. 170 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: You had it at I think you had it at 171 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 2: fifty four or fifty seven, fifty. 172 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 3: Seven last week something, So they're getting there. But yeah, 173 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 3: they're gonna they're gonna. 174 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: Fill it out. Gonna be an arduous process, and who knows, 175 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: maybe with this reported extension for Taron Johnson, there's a 176 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: little bit more room to work with now to maybe 177 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: add a couple of more players here pre draft in 178 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: terms of cap space to allow for contracts to take place. 179 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: So because we had heard last week, you know that 180 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: Ty Johnson had agreed to terms to re sign with 181 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 2: the Bills, but I don't think anything official had come 182 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 2: down from the team as of yet, and maybe it 183 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 2: was predicated on creating more cap space. Bills and Aaron 184 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 2: Johnson extension. 185 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 3: Bills have fifty eight fifty eight. 186 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: Now there's other news around the NFL, which is brought 187 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 2: to you by Kalida Healthy, official healthcare system of the 188 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills.

After just six seasons, a 191 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,119 Speaker 2: neck injury has cost him the remainder of his professional 192 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 2: playing career. He is not the first, and he probably 193 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: won't be the last. But the Cowboys released him over 194 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 2: the weekend, and now you know it comes down that 195 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: he has met retired from football. Owner Jerry Jones said quote, 196 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 2: We're proud that he wore the star on his helmet. 197 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: Despite all the safety measures that exist and have been 198 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 2: implemented in this league over the better part of the 199 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 2: last ten years, it is still a brutal and barbaric 200 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 2: sport that can end anybody's career on any snap. 201 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 3: More so than at any point in history. You're seeing 202 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: guys call Aaron Donald last week, Vander Esch this week. 203 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 3: There's been other guys. 204 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 2: Patrick Willis with the Niners a few years ago. 205 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 3: Guys are just saying, you know what, I got enough. 206 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 3: I've had enough. The money's getting bigger and bigger, and 207 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 3: it's getting bigger and bigger further down the roster. And 208 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 3: there were times back in the day, back in the 209 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 3: nineteen sixties, nineteen seventies, you guys just you never saw 210 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 3: anybody retire for any reason. They kept going. And of course, 211 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 3: now as these guys get into their seventies and eighties, 212 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 3: we see the results of that, and it's sad for 213 00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 3: some of them, Like all those guys from the sixties 214 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: of the all those guys I know, from the nineteen 215 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: sixty five bills, those championship guys there. You know, they 216 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: got this hip, they got that knee, they got both knees, 217 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: they got ankles. Even my buddy, you know, Jim Kelly's 218 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 3: had his ankle replaced, that kind of thing. So, you know, 219 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 3: it's just kind of part of it. But nowadays guys 220 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 3: are I it's just more aware and they've been financially 221 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: rewarded at a high enough level to say, listen, I've 222 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 3: had it. I mean, I get it. I could probably 223 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 3: squeeze out another year, you know what I mean, And 224 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 3: they probably could, I mean, Vanderish nobody, you know, and 225 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 3: they just decide, hey, I've had it, I had enough. 226 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: And well if you remember, I mean, you know, my 227 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: broadcast partner on the Games this past year, Eric Wood right, 228 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: no neck injury. They didn't even know he had it 229 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: until he took his exit physical right, and it was like, yeah, 230 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: you really shouldn't play anymore. 231 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're smart enough to listen back in the day. 232 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 3: And I'm not kidding. Guys just say, I don't care 233 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 3: what you say. I'm playing. And they were playing for like, 234 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: you know, less money than I made as a special 235 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 3: Teams player, and they're like, going, I'm playing. It's just 236 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 3: the way it was a different mentality. It's was less 237 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 3: informed and and I and I get it too. The 238 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 3: guys these days do have an extra generation or two 239 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 3: of players to look at and say, you know, I 240 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 3: don't want to be like that. Yeah, I don't want 241 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 3: to be that guy who you know, who's either bitter 242 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 3: about it or physically enable to get up and walk around. 243 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: I mean, there's some guys that are that we all 244 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 3: know and love, who are who are struggling, and the 245 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 3: current players are aware of it. It's so uh late. 246 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 3: Vander esh retiring is just another sign that you'll you'll 247 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 3: see more and more of that, you know, Aaron Donald. 248 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 3: I mean, that guy's made a pile of money, played 249 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: ten years and you know that's enough, you know, and 250 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: the guy walks away, as far as we know, he's 251 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: one hundred percent healthy. 252 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems fine. So playing it down in dirty 253 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: position where there's a lot of you know what I mean, 254 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: We've said a lot of mass times acceleration there. 255 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 3: It is a meat grinder down inside there, and guys 256 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 3: just it's mentally exhausting to get ready to do that 257 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 3: physically every week. 258 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 2: That's the challenge. Yeah, topic of discussion for you today. 259 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 2: Want to have a little draft discussion because with all 260 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 2: the quarterback movement we saw over the weekend around the league, 261 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: with Justin Fields getting traded to Pittsburgh, so you know, 262 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: the Bears are in it for a quarterback at one. 263 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: Presumably most people believe it's Caleb Williams, but there is 264 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 2: talk now that quarterbacks could go one through four. People 265 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,359 Speaker 2: are convinced that one of these teams, whether it's Minnesota 266 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: that now has two draft choices in round one after 267 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: the trade they swung last week, or whether it's a 268 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: team like Denver where the cupboard is essentially bear they 269 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 2: have Jarrett Stidham as they're starting quarterback right now, that 270 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: one of these teams is going to swing a deal 271 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 2: with Arizona and four and move up to take a quarterback. 272 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 2: The general consensus now is one through four it's going 273 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 2: to be qbs Yeah. That coupled with what I think 274 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: many of us believe, we'll see as many as five 275 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 2: to six offensive tackles come off the board before the 276 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: Bills are on the clock. 277 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: So that gets you to like a ten. 278 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, at least one tight ends coming off 279 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 2: the board and rock clavers and presumably three receivers at least. 280 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 3: Fourteen that gets you halfway to twenty eight. Yeah. 281 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 2: So our topic of discussion today concerns Buffalo's pick at 282 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 2: twenty eight, and we want your argument, why will the 283 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: Bills be able to stay at twenty eight and still 284 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 2: get their guy? Eight oh three five point fifty one 285 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: eight eight eight five point fifty two five fifty the 286 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 2: number to get on board? And we do have some 287 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 2: open lines for you there, or if you can't give 288 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 2: us a phone call, you can always hit us up 289 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: on the tweets sheet at one Bills Live. But why 290 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 2: will the Bills be able to stay at twenty eight 291 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 2: still get their guy? In your estimation, and some of 292 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: it could be rooted in the desperation level that half 293 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: a dozen teams in this draft who pick ahead of 294 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 2: the Bills have to land a quarterback that's gonna lead 295 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 2: their franchise out of the Abyss. 296 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 3: So you got teams too like New Well, New England's 297 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 3: obvious and they're at number three, so they're gonna get 298 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: a guy for sure. But you've also got You've also 299 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 3: got Denver, who doesn't pick until twelve twelve and then 300 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 3: they don't pick again until seventy six. 301 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: The quarterbacks on their roster, Jared Stidham and Ben Denucci, 302 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 2: that's who they've got. I mean, there might as well 303 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 2: be a Neon sign blinking in Denver that says we're 304 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: drafting a quarterback with Sean Payton's going into the season 305 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 2: with Ben Denucci and Jared Stidham. There's no way he's 306 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: doing that. 307 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 3: Way. You've got to get a guy. 308 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: I think they got a trade like a future two 309 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: and there one twelve get where they need to go. 310 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 3: They gotta get a guy. Yes, now they desperately playing 311 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 3: in that division. Yeah, could they think about well, no, 312 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: they ain't gonna do that. I don't know what you do. 313 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: I think one of the more elves too far back. 314 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: Now there's now okay, so all of that there, you've 315 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 3: got Caleb Williams, Drake May, Jaden Daniels. These are all 316 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 3: the quarterbacks coming out. Who are these top guys. It's 317 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 3: Caleb Williams, Drake May and Jade and Daniels are like 318 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: the top three guys. Then you can throw JJ McCarthy 319 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 3: in there as a shiny thing on the top of. 320 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: Some people are gaga for JJ McCarthy, that's the word 321 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 2: on the street. 322 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 3: But Mike Pennix from Washington is we both like him. 323 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,919 Speaker 3: Then you got Spencer Rattler, Michael So you got all 324 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: these guys.

So you're gonna 329 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 3: get one at twelve, and he's probably gonna be somewhere 330 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 3: from JJ McCart or probably from Michael Pennick or JJ 331 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 3: mccarthin Lee it's gonna be Bo Nick, Spencer Rattler, Michael Pratt, 332 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 3: Jordan Davis, all those guys. So you're gonna get have 333 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 3: a quarterback in this draft on the board at twelve. 334 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 3: But it ain't gonna be one of those top four 335 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 3: or five guys, maybe a fifth guy. All right, so 336 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 3: let's let's maybe let's do this. 337 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: Maybe let's attack this from the other end. Who is 338 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 2: most desperate to land a quarterback? I mean, I think 339 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: it's obvious that Chicago and Washington are gonna draft quarterbacks 340 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 2: because the quarterbacks on their rosters right now are Tyson 341 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 2: Bagent and Bret Rippon in Chicago, New England, Washington as 342 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 2: Mariota and Jake from and New England as Jacoby Brissett 343 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 2: and Bailey Zappi. I think it's a given all three 344 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 2: of those teams are taking quarterbacks and probably staying where 345 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: they are. Maybe New England is still cuckoo for cocoa 346 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 2: puffs in the draft and they trade out, but I 347 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 2: really can't see them doing that. 348 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 3: No, so let's just assume the top. 349 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,479 Speaker 2: Three are good to go qb Okay. Then you have 350 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 2: the Giants with Daniel Jones in his lame duck year, 351 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 2: because that guy is as good as gone after this year, 352 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 2: as far as I'm concerned with that albatross of a 353 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 2: forty million dollar a year contract that the Giants signed 354 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 2: him to, and they have Drew Locke, who they signed 355 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 2: in free agency. Maybe they take a quarterback at six, maybe, 356 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 2: which would then make teams like Minnesota and Denver at 357 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 2: eleven and twelve say, oh jeez, we got to get 358 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 2: in front of the Giants. 359 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 360 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 3: If I'm the Giants, if Mike Pennix is on the board, 361 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 3: I'm taking him. I am taking that guy. 362 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: You can't tell me you're I mean, Daniel Jones. It's 363 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: a lame duck season. I'm sorry, Daniel Jones. 364 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 3: He is not it. 365 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: And I said that two years ago, twhen he threw 366 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: fifteen touchdown passes and they signed him to a forty 367 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: million dollar year extension. 368 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 3: Fifteen so bad. 369 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 2: It makes zero sense. I know they kind of I 370 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 2: know he kind of had him between a rocket and 371 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 2: a hard place because they made the playoffs and he 372 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 2: won a playoff game. But good god almighty, that's. 373 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 3: Where you got to cut bait man. You got to say, listen, 374 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 3: thank you for stopping by step and five. We're gonna 375 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 3: we're gonna trade you for a bag of footballs and 376 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 3: we're gonna move on. Whatever they could get for him. 377 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 3: You got to do it. 378 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 2: And well, they can't get out from under the contract 379 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 2: until next year. It's so bad why they're gonna they're 380 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 2: stuck with him. 381 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 3: But if you can't get out from under it, now, 382 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: that's why you take Mike Pennix. Yeah, let him gest 383 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: state all uh, you know Trey Lance or Patrick mahomes here. Yeah, 384 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 3: and the guy in Green Bay, well, Jordan Love was right, 385 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 3: but Jordan Love just let him gest state and and 386 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 3: you know, come out ready to play. 387 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 2: As Giants are an interesting pivot point there at six, 388 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 2: which could force a team like Minnesota or Denver like 389 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 2: and Minnesota is equipped to do that. They have pick 390 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 2: eleven and twenty three in round one, so they've got 391 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 2: the ammunition to move up and leap frog the Giants 392 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: if they feel it's necessary. So yeah, I mean in 393 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: Minnesota's got Sam Darnold, Nick Mullins and Jaron Hall. Thanks 394 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 2: for nothing, good grief. So both of the which team 395 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: do you think is more desperate Minnesota or Denver to 396 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,479 Speaker 2: get the fourth quarterback in the draft? 397 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 3: Well, whatever level of desperation they are, in Minnesota's got 398 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 3: the cachet to jump and get somebody. Denver has nothing. 399 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 2: They gotta have a second round pick. 400 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 3: They got the twelfth pick and then they got the 401 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 3: seventy sixth pick. 402 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 2: Yeesh. 403 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 3: But here's the thing. Let me say this, nobody more 404 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 3: than Sean Payton knows the value of a quarterback. And 405 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 3: he's also the dude that was in New Orleans when 406 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 3: they went one hundred and fifty million bucks over the cap, 407 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 3: trying to win now, win now, win now, win now, 408 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 3: win now, win now. He may do that in Denver. 409 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: Next year's two and the year after's number one, And 410 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 3: let's go next year's number one and the year after 411 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 3: number one. I wanna get the guy we want. 412 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 2: It might only take two ones to get up there, 413 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: because you're assuming even if Denver does take a quarterback, 414 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: they're still probably a middle of the road team, and 415 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 2: you're one of whatever quarterback they get. 416 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: Maybe they're gonna, maybe they're gonna. So I think Denver's not. 417 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 2: What I'm saying is, if I'm on the other end 418 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: of the phone and Denver's calling me and they're gonna 419 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: give me their pick at twelve, and they say we'll 420 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 2: give you next year's one two, that's probably enough to 421 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 2: get it done. Which to team like the Chargers at five, 422 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 2: don't you. I can listen to that because I'm pickbacks. 423 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 2: I'm I'm the Chargers at five, I don't need a quarterback, 424 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: and I'm I'm only sliding back seven spots and I 425 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 2: get a one next year, and you're gonna be a 426 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: middle of the road team that I'm probably better than 427 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: in my own division. 428 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 3: Thank you. 429 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 2: Next, I'll take it. Give me a one next year 430 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: and your twelve pick, and I'll slide back seven spots. 431 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 3: I'm trying to get my mind around. 432 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 2: Because I'm thinking Denver somewhere in the middle of a 433 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 2: round one next. 434 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 3: Year, right, I'm thinking, what do you do if you're 435 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 3: a division team? Do you trade with a division team 436 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 3: of that nature? 437 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 2: I don't think it matters to Sean Payton. I gotta 438 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 2: get my guy. Yeah, and if I have a shred 439 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 2: of evidence that the Giants are taking the fourth quarterback, 440 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 2: I got to get to five. I mean, ideally I'll 441 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 2: go to four, so there's no debate. 442 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 3: What about Yeah, what about Arizona? Do you call Arizona? 443 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you got to start there because you want 444 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: to leave no wiggle room in between you and New England. 445 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 3: So yeah, you got to talk to Arizona first. And 446 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 3: I bet you that's Denver will do. Sean Payton has 447 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 3: done that. Oh he doesn't care. He cashes. He pushes 448 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 3: everything to the table, in the middle of the table 449 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 3: all the time. Every year. Yeah, every off season. New 450 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: Orleans still isn't out of that that hole. I don't know. 451 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 3: They're not out of that hole. 452 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 2: I don't think. 453 00:23:58,840 --> 00:23:58,959 Speaker 4: So. 454 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, Denver is whatever it takes to get up there. 455 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 3: Denver may do it because they're because Sean Payton has 456 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 3: proven himself that. But Minnesota's got buckets of David and 457 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 3: listen in this draft right, which means the general manager in. 458 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 2: Arizona and Arizona already has a second first round pick, 459 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: they're down at twenty seven. 460 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 3: So if so, if Arizona you get, you talk to 461 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 3: Arizona if you're gonna jump up to there. Arizona saying listen, 462 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 3: and the GM out there is saying, Lo, I don't 463 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 3: need I might I'll be here next year, or I 464 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 3: might have be here in two years. 465 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, he just got the job last year. 466 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, give me, give me all I can have. 467 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: Well, they need they need bodies in Arizona. That's why 468 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: it's attractive, even though they pick four in twenty seven. Yeah, 469 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: you get a call from Minnesota. They say, we'll give 470 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: you three first round picks because now you have eleven, 471 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 2: twenty three, and twenty seven. 472 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 3: Right, So that's if you're a GM, you want they 473 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 3: want to now you want it now? Yeah, you don't, 474 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 3: And it makes a lot of sense. Don't don't send 475 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: me wrong. It's not unattractive to get a first rounder 476 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 3: next year, but you know, this is always the year 477 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 3: where you're thinking, Okay, give it to me. But because 478 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 3: you know next year you got a draft pick for 479 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 3: the next GM. That's always the mentality. Although you're right 480 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 3: that gym on in Arizona's probably still on his honeymoon phase. 481 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 3: I'm it's interesting because we go through this every year, 482 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 3: and actually I don't remember going through it this much. 483 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 3: When we were we had two first rounds and we 484 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,640 Speaker 3: had to get up to get Josh. I mean, this 485 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 3: is this is why the draft is so intriguing for 486 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: so it's it's its own cottage industry around the NFL. 487 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 2: There's an innumerable amount of variables that can take place 488 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 2: leading up to the draft and the night of the draft. 489 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 3: It's amazing, but I'm selling and. 490 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 2: All those permutations change with each successive pick. 491 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 3: If Newing. If everything was as it were has been, 492 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 3: New England would be the incredible wild card in the 493 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 3: thing because Bill Belichick is apt to trade out to 494 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 3: take a center or yeah, to take some guess to 495 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 3: take Cole Strange or or trade back and instead of whatever. 496 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 3: And now with Gerard Mayo and a new game in 497 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 3: New England, I'm it can't be like the wolf. They're 498 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 3: going to get back on the rails, I think on 499 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 3: Draft Day and I think they will take best player available, 500 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 3: and if it's the quarterback or whatever, I think it'll be, 501 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 3: that's who it's going to be. But it's going to 502 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 3: be one of the qbs. And I wouldn't be surprised 503 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 3: if if even New England flip flops with Washington. Uh 504 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. But that's You're looking at three 505 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 3: teams at the top of this draft, all of whom 506 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 3: won a quarterback and fourth in there, and there is 507 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 3: quarterbacks to be had in this draft that would warrant 508 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 3: that kind of pick. So after that, then you've got 509 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 3: the most the best player in the draft AFT is 510 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 3: a wide receiver, which seems a cut and dried fit 511 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 3: for Arizona, and what they're kind of get. 512 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 2: Although now the talk is mylik Neighbors might be moving past. 513 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 3: Now our leak Neighbors maybe better than it. 514 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 2: Might be the top receiver in the class well by 515 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 2: teams standards. You know, we have all the draft knicks 516 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 2: out there that you know, SA Marvin Harrison Junior is 517 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 2: the best. And it's sounding as though as a lot 518 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 2: of these draft knicks are talking to teams more often 519 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: than not, they're saying, Neighbors is the top receiver on 520 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 2: my board. Now we should also remember it's lying season. 521 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 2: That is true, and we could have some teams maybe 522 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 2: putting out some false narratives on purpose, hoping that Harrison 523 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 2: falls to them. Right, That's always something to consider as well. 524 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 2: But let's get to the phones at eight oh three 525 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 2: five point fifty one eight eight eighty five point fifty two, 526 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: five fifty as we are asking you, why would the 527 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: Bills be able to stay at twenty eight and still 528 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 2: get their guy leading us off today? Is Jay in Buffalo? 529 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,120 Speaker 3: What's up? Jay? 530 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 5: It is it Judy from Buffalo? 531 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, now see they put in Jay here in Buffalo, 532 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 2: and it sounds like it's Judy to me. 533 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 5: Okay, you know, you know I've been advocating for the 534 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 5: last three two years that the Bills did nothing to 535 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 5: help Josh Allen. They needed to draft receivers. Okay, if 536 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 5: they do nothing this year, they need to draft find them. 537 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 5: I don't care who, what round, whatever, get receivers. Kansas 538 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,479 Speaker 5: City drafted a receiver the first round, rice they went 539 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 5: to the Super Bowl. La Rams drafted a receiver I 540 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 5: don't know the third, fifth round. He made them relevant again. 541 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 5: And lord knows, the Green Bay Packers have done nothing 542 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 5: in the last two three years but draft receivers because 543 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 5: they knew they had a quarterback in love. 544 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, ends, Yeah, you're right. 545 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 5: I don't care where they are graft receivers to help 546 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 5: Josh Allen. And my my last question is are the 547 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 5: Digs in a position to put or are the Bills 548 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 5: in a position to put Digs up. 549 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 4: On the market. 550 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 5: If so, would anybody really pick him up? Because I 551 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 5: don't think he's a number one receiver any longer. Okay, 552 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 5: that's my last comment. 553 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: All right, thanks? You think Judy, Judy is the wide 554 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 3: receiver train engineer today. She is blowing the horn, she's 555 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 3: leaning on it. Uh, you're yes, I get it. And 556 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 3: I'll say this too. There's a there's a lot of 557 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 3: different and some of it is draft mechanics and where 558 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 3: you pick and is there a guy there and all 559 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 3: of that stuff, because sometimes your pick comes up in 560 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 3: the draft and the receiver you want isn't You're not 561 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,959 Speaker 3: gonna waste that pick on this guy. You can get 562 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 3: him later and then you rin value doesn't fit the pick, Yeah, 563 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 3: then you don't get him. I get that. I'm I'm 564 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 3: with you, Judy. The Bill I think should come out 565 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 3: of this draft. If they pick all eleven picks, three 566 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 3: of them got to be wide outs. I don't care 567 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: whatever wherever, because you could get a Puka Nakua and 568 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 3: in the what is a fifth round, fifth rounder you 569 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 3: can find one of those dudes. 570 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: And the Bills have done that is an example of that. 571 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: Right, So I'm I'm all about it, I'm I'm with 572 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 3: you and I But then two, it's tough even though 573 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 3: they're NFL teams like the like the teams you mentioned, 574 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 3: the Packers and the Chiefs, their NFL teams. They got 575 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 3: quarterbacks they like and dah da da da dah and 576 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 3: they're all it. Every team's different, and it's hard to 577 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 3: it's hard to compare why the built the Chiefs roster 578 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 3: is built the way it is with the way the 579 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 3: Packers rosters built and the way the Bills rosters build 580 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 3: because the opportunities they have to sign guys and draft guys, 581 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 3: and the philosophy and the kind of guys they got 582 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 3: in the room other than that quarterback. So I'm I'm 583 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: with you. I think, as a feral philosophy, if you 584 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 3: got a quarterback like Josh, you got a quarterback like Pat, 585 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 3: you got a quarterback like Jordan Love or any of 586 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 3: the other guys. Yeah, give them the weapons they need, 587 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 3: and even first and foremost, give them an offensive line. 588 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 3: So that's first. But the Bills have that in place. 589 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 3: And I'm and I so, I'm with you, Judy, you 590 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 3: got to come out of this draft, I think with 591 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 3: three guys at wide receiver and hopefully one of them 592 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 3: can want just one can get on the field. 593 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 2: And concerning Diggs, it's difficult for them to get out 594 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 2: from under that contract, even with a trade because of 595 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 2: the cap hit they would incur wouldn't be as severe 596 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: as if they just cut them out right, but it 597 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 2: would be difficult to do that after all the work 598 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 2: they did to clear cap space. Next year could be 599 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: a different story because there's as it's a little more 600 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: palatable to undertake something like that. Although there is a 601 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: guarantee for his salary for next year that kicks in 602 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 2: this year, which can be debated as well. I don't 603 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 2: want to get in the weeds on that, but there 604 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: are some things in place that might make it difficulty 605 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 2: even next year, depending on how things shake out this summer. 606 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 2: And then finally, I will say, in defense of the 607 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: Bills personnel department, they did get players that helped Josh, 608 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: Dalton Kincaid and Osiris Torrance with their first two selections. 609 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 2: Both of those players helped Josh in far different ways, 610 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 2: but they both helped him last year. And the jury 611 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: is still out on Justin Shorter because we don't know 612 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 2: what they have in him yet since he never took 613 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,719 Speaker 2: the field in the regular season. Eighth, three h five 614 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: fifty the number to get on board. Why will the 615 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 2: Bills be able to stay at twenty eight and still 616 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 2: get their guy? You let us know there as we 617 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 2: are wide open for phone calls next here on One 618 00:32:41,160 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 2: Bill's Live. Stay tuned, all right, Welcome to One Bills Live. 619 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: Chris Brown Steve's tasking with you here on a Monday, 620 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: where we are talking draft and why you think the 621 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 2: Bills will be able to stay at number twenty eight 622 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 2: and still get their guy. If you disagree, he can 623 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 2: tell us why as well. Eight O three oh five 624 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 2: fifty one eighty eight five fifty two five fifty. You 625 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 2: got a line or two open for you there. But 626 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 2: we go back to the phones and we lead off 627 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 2: with Mark in Jersey City. 628 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 3: What's up? 629 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 6: Mark, Good afternoon, gentlemen. I think you were being conservative there. 630 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 6: Chris with the tackles. I think there's going to be 631 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 6: like seven or eight. 632 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 2: Not live wow, make me happy. 633 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 6: And the center and the Oregon Stoner Powers Johnson, you 634 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 6: can throw him in there. But I think what I know, 635 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 6: Steve's a big fan the way these teams are scratching 636 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 6: and con for the quarterback. I think Pennix has a 637 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 6: chance to be that sixth guy. I think so too, 638 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 6: maybe the fifth, maybe ahead of Knicks, maybe behind next. 639 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,719 Speaker 6: Just the way it's falling, that's okay. That gives us twelve. 640 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 6: There's going to be what three edge rushers, There's going 641 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 6: to be three corners at least the three, the Big three, 642 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 6: the wide receivers. That's I just named nine. So now 643 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 6: you're getting down into the single digits. That might enable 644 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 6: them to make a move to go up and get 645 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 6: a guy that they want, whether it's Thomas, whether it's Mitchell. 646 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 6: I really think they're gonna have a look at a 647 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 6: guy that they like a lot, just because of the 648 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 6: glut of quarterbacks and tackles. 649 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 3: Right, if you get into the if you get into 650 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 3: the single digits and you get to like say pick 651 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 3: twenty and because then then it's Pittsburgh, they may take 652 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 3: a wide out Miami maybe maybe not depends Philly, Yeah, 653 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 3: they may. Minnesota they're they're gonna be one of the 654 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,360 Speaker 3: teams that probably jumps up to get out of that. 655 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 3: And whoever takes that spot that they got from Cleveland 656 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 3: at twenty three may want a wide out. Dallas may 657 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:57,760 Speaker 3: take a wide out Green Bay, Tampa, and Arizona, depending 658 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 3: on what Arizona does. 659 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 2: Pittsbury's taking alignment, you think, yeah, they need a line help, Okay, 660 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 2: I mean they could take a receiver. I know they 661 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 2: traded Deontae Johnson. I get it. 662 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 3: Point is you get down there that teams are gonna 663 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 3: try and make themselves before the draft as flexible as 664 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 3: possible because they know there's so many permutations above them. 665 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 3: The closer you get to twenty eight, like the Bills, 666 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 3: you don't know who's going to be available, So you 667 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 3: got to make sure that you can take a good 668 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 3: guy there, no matter what the position he is, or 669 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 3: as much you know, as little consideration to the position 670 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 3: as you can, just pick the best pro. So that's 671 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 3: where a lot of these teams are going to be 672 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 3: when they get from twenty to twenty eight, where the 673 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 3: Bills are. 674 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they may and the Bills may still have 675 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 2: to move up. If they have a receiver, they cover it, 676 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 2: they may still have to make a move. But if 677 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,240 Speaker 2: all of this stuff kind of falls as we anticipated, 678 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 2: will I feel even better than ever that they're going 679 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 2: to get a very very good player it picked twenty eight. 680 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 2: It may not be a receiver, because I think a 681 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 2: pivot point here, you know, fourth receiver comes off the 682 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 2: board perhaps and the Bills can't get up to get 683 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: maybe the fifth best guy, and that guy comes off 684 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 2: the board too, You're staring at one of the best 685 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 2: defensive tackles in the class, like square in the face, 686 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,879 Speaker 2: you know, like a Johnny Newton from Illinois or something 687 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 2: like that, like yes, please, right, you know, that's a 688 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 2: pretty damn good consolation. 689 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 3: And it's gonna be a little bit like it was 690 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 3: last year where the Bills get out there, Oh what 691 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 3: are you gonna and you get Dalton Kincaid, And I 692 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 3: gotta be honest, I didn't know who Dalton Kincaid was 693 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 3: that much. And then you see the Bills drafted him, 694 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 3: and the guys on the TV, and I get it, 695 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 3: they're just like us. They kind of have some information 696 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 3: on all of it, and they're going, oh my gosh, Well, 697 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 3: if you're gonna give Dalton kin kid to the Bills, 698 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 3: you get what you deserve. That guy can go. It 699 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 3: was Daniel Jeremid right, So we're sitting there going, oh sweet, 700 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 3: And it turned out he was right. I trade Kincaid. 701 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: He had the highest catch rate in college football and 702 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 2: that kind of bared itself out last sure, and so you're. 703 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 3: Gonna get a guy like that, But the problem is 704 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 3: he may not catch the ball. He may block, you know, 705 00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 3: or tackle you know. So it's control. You gotta know 706 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 3: if they even if they pick at twenty eight and 707 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: it's not a wide receiver, the guy that gets gonna 708 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 3: be a quality guy, and you just kind of have 709 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,919 Speaker 3: to like, all right, then you know, you just wait 710 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 3: your turn. I don't think there's any way even if 711 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 3: they don't take a wide out at twenty eight, there's 712 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 3: no way they walk away from this draft without three 713 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 3: of those guys. 714 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 2: If they keep all eleven. 715 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 3: You're saying, if they if they pick eleven times three 716 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 3: of them are going to be a wide out. 717 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 2: Three of them may also be defensive lineman. 718 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 3: Right, and then yeah, right, and then you may you 719 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 3: may end up you know, just all of us will 720 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 3: be hoping for a Puka Nakua type guy, you know, 721 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 3: a guy that comes out and explodes. 722 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think any team in the league 723 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: would hope for a guy like that. Over one hundred 724 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 2: catches as a rookie. 725 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 3: Good, they're out there, they're out now. Some of that 726 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 3: comes from being with Sean McVay and Matt Stafford in LA. 727 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 3: I mean, Pooka Nicoua is not going to catch a 728 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 3: hundred balls with Chicago last year. So you know that, 729 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 3: and that's that's just the reality of it. 730 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 2: Blinding spot is just as important. 731 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 3: Yes, So that's part of it. 732 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 4: As well. 733 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 2: Let's get back to the phone.

I appreciate that you got it. 837 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 8: So my question today really is about Jordan Poyer now 838 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 8: that he's with Miami and they signed him to it. 839 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 8: I believe it was a two million dollar deal. I'm 840 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 8: just curious, in your guys' opinion, one had been better 841 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 8: for Buffalo to hold on to Jordan Poyer and get 842 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 8: the mic a veteran minimum with the incentives maybe of 843 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 8: getting up to where he wants to be, but put 844 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 8: him on our roster as a leadership role, if not 845 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 8: a training role for our news safety that we're gonna get. 846 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 8: I just understand why we trade him to our one 847 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 8: of our biggest rivals in the entire league for a 848 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 8: price that I think was affordable for Buffalo to keep 849 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 8: him on the roster. 850 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,600 Speaker 2: Well he was, Yeah, he was. He was actually under 851 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 2: contract with the Bills. Ricky had a year left on 852 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 2: his existing deal. The problem was his cap figure was 853 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 2: eight million dollars and the Bills were in a position 854 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 2: where they had to create cap space and he represented 855 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 2: a formidable savings for them. 856 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, it had nothing to do. Yeah, he was never 857 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 3: He was a salary cap casualty. And so there's nothing 858 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 3: that says the Bills didn't go back to him and say, hey, listen, 859 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 3: we'll give you this or this or there, or veterminimum 860 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 3: or whatever. And in the interim he got contacted by 861 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 3: Miami and decided to make a change. That's what it was. 862 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 3: That the Bills didn't say goodbye to him because they 863 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 3: didn't like him. It was strictly a business financial decision. 864 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 2: Now, I will say that watching Jordan play last year, 865 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 2: while he had a very productive season over one hundred tackles, 866 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: I think it was second or third on the team 867 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 2: in tackles. He was playing a different role. He was 868 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,320 Speaker 2: much closer to the line of scrimmage. He was playing 869 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 2: in a dime package, almost as a linebacker type. And 870 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 2: I think that's because his range wasn't quite what it 871 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: was in his prime in terms of coverage. That's not 872 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 2: to say he's not a capable NFL player. I just 873 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 2: don't know that he's the same NFL player that he 874 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 2: was here in his prime, as he'll be thirty three 875 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 2: years of age, I believe before the season starts in 876 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 2: the fall. So he was a free agent and he 877 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 2: signed a free agent minimum contract with the Dolphins, which 878 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 2: I think speaks to what the rest of the league 879 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 2: feels his value is on the open market as a 880 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 2: thirty three year old safety. 881 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 3: And there might be some you know, there's probably something 882 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 3: in it about Taron Johnson, you know, kind of taking 883 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 3: over the leadership role. There's also probably something in there 884 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 3: about Taylor Rapp in the Bill's you know, belief that 885 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 3: he may be the next guy that they wanted to 886 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 3: move in there and move and get to a younger 887 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 3: spot athletically, whatever, No question about it, it's gonna be 888 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 3: virtually impossible to replace what Poyer brings to the room 889 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 3: as a leader and a mentor and an experience, a 890 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 3: voice of experience. But Poyer could quite frankly make more 891 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 3: than that someplace else for a team that wants him 892 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 3: on the field, And the Bills probably would not have 893 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 3: put him on a field had he come back. So 894 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:33,759 Speaker 3: for a guy like Poe, I would I would think 895 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,720 Speaker 3: he made the best decision for him and his family, 896 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 3: and the Bills did what they believe. Now, you can, 897 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 3: you can poke holes in It's sure, you always can, 898 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 3: but I don't think that anybody on either side of 899 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 3: this is beefing this too much. 900 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get back to the phones and too, Mike 901 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 2: and Easter or what's up Mike? 902 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 9: Happy birthday? 903 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 3: Yeah? Thanks? 904 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 2: And also Eric, yes. 905 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:07,240 Speaker 9: Also this is her. This is mainly a question for Steve. Steve, 906 00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 9: do you think that Sean McDermott can get Chase Young's 907 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 9: hat out of his rear end uh and get him 908 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 9: play into his ability provided the Bill could find a way. 909 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:26,800 Speaker 7: To sign him. 910 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 9: And also if they did sign him, what do you 911 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 9: think the contract would look like? 912 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 2: All right, here's the thing, Hirst, of all, I had 913 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 2: to cut him loose Stone was breaking up. 914 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 3: Thanks Mike, here you go, Mike. First of all, if 915 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 3: a guy doesn't want to play, it doesn't matter who's 916 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 3: coaching him. We've seen that with other players around the league. 917 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 3: If there was a chance that the Bill signed him, 918 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 3: you can bet it's gonna be a one year deal 919 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 3: so that he'll be highly motivated financially to play hard. 920 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 3: That's the way it'll work. Chase Young will play for 921 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 3: the money, so you don't have to light a fire 922 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 3: under him. If you're asking a coach, you'd be hard 923 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 3: pressed to find a coach who can break through to 924 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 3: a guy who doesn't have a motor. 925 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 2: And that is the knock on Chase Young. 926 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 3: Chase Young doesn't play hard on a consistent basis. So 927 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 3: that's his problem, and that's why Washington gave up on him. 928 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 3: That's why he's available now with That's why. 929 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 2: An uber talented twenty four year old pass Rush ubertailable now. 930 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 3: Think Jadavian Clowney. It's the same guy, hugely talented, but 931 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,799 Speaker 3: he's going to bounce around and he's going to make 932 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 3: pretty good money. But you just he will forever until 933 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 3: he changes it. It will be forever labeled as an underachiever. 934 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: And I think the other thing we have to remember 935 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 2: here too is the Bills have worked very hard to 936 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,359 Speaker 2: create cap space so they can make the necessary moves 937 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 2: to fill out their roster. As Steve mentioned, they're only 938 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 2: up to fifty eight active fifty eight players under contract. 939 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 2: They got a long way to go. Do the Bills 940 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 2: sound like the kind of team that would want to 941 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 2: undertake that kind of situation, knowing they're always looking for 942 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 2: Bills DNA type players. I don't know that they are. 943 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 2: He's probably gonna cost you about thirteen to fourteen million 944 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 2: on a one year deal, which also, by the way, 945 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 2: doesn't affordge it the opportunity to spread that money out 946 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 2: in any way, shape or form, And it's a risk. 947 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 2: And I think they'd rather take a couple of sure 948 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 2: things with two players that cost thirteen million than one 949 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 2: where they know they're gonna have to be kicking the 950 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 2: guy in the pants every week in practice. 951 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 3: Right, So yeah, that's just it might be too big 952 00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 3: a rot a home And I get it. I mean, 953 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 3: Sean McDermott has gotten the most out of a lot 954 00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 3: of the players on this roster. But one of the 955 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 3: reasons these coach is like like a Mike Tomlin, like 956 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 3: a Sean McDermott, like whoever, like Dan Campbell in Detroit. 957 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 3: Some of these guys that have a reputation for maximizing 958 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 3: the guys on the roster. There are others out there 959 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 3: and I'm not thinking of them. One of the reasons 960 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,439 Speaker 3: they're able to do that is because they don't hire 961 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 3: guys like Chase Young, right. They only bring in guys 962 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 3: that are high motor guys, and so they that helps 963 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 3: them get the most out of their roster. So you 964 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 3: get a you bring a guy in here who's highly 965 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:34,720 Speaker 3: motivated but not as gifted. You always have that idea 966 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 3: that they're playing above their punching weight, you know. Whereas 967 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 3: a guy like Chase Young, it's like, uh, yeah, I 968 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 3: want is there anybody out here who will trade for him? 969 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 2: You know, because I'll say this, Well, the Niners traded 970 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 2: for him at the deadline. 971 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,800 Speaker 3: Just for a stretch run too, and they're ready. 972 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 2: To get rid of it, and they didn't. They're not 973 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 2: going to resign them. 974 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:01,879 Speaker 3: I Mean, here's the thing. Guys like that like Chase Young, 975 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 3: like Jadavian Clown, a nice guy. Okay, all of that 976 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 3: but here, let me tell you something. They're they're a 977 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 3: drag on your attitude and your and your work, you know, 978 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 3: and your work ethic, on your vibe, on this maximizing 979 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,239 Speaker 3: your roster. They are a drag on it, because, man, 980 00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 3: they if you got a guy like that in your 981 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 3: locker room, you can bet he's gonna make friends in 982 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 3: the locker room, and anybody who makes friends with him 983 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 3: is going to be the same way and get dragged down. 984 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 3: They're gonna get dragged And all of a sudden, you 985 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,399 Speaker 3: got it like he's you know, he's got a couple 986 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 3: of his defensive line buddies. He's got a defensive back buddy, 987 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 3: maybe even a tight end or alignman. And all of 988 00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 3: a sudden, you got guys from sprinkled out through other 989 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 3: position groups who are all getting dragged down. You know, 990 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 3: their attitude's bad, their work ethics bad. They're leaving the 991 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 3: facility instead of staying in doing stuff. You know, they 992 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 3: if they're they they're cutting loose as soon as they can, 993 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 3: thinking about other things. They don't they don't live it, 994 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:56,320 Speaker 3: breathe it, talk it, you know that kind of stuff. 995 00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 3: And that's what guys like Chase Young can do. So 996 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 3: that's why teams, man, they treat them, They treat them 997 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 3: like man. They they they want to take a pill 998 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,280 Speaker 3: and get rid of them like they're like a cold, 999 00:51:09,640 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 3: you know, give me a give me a shot so 1000 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 3: I can get rid of this.

We want you 1004 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 3: want to get more problems? 1005 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:28,080 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1006 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 2: Does you know do the plus is outweigh the minuses? 1007 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 3: When things our teams are debating. When things are going good, 1008 00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 3: you got a million things you got to deal with, 1009 00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 3: let alone bringing in a million and one. 1010 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 2: We are up against the break. Jack and cheek to 1011 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 2: Waga will lead us off when we come back, as 1012 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 2: we are wide open for phone calls. Why will the 1013 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,840 Speaker 2: bills be able to stay at number twenty eight and 1014 00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 2: still get their guy, give us your best argument for 1015 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 2: that when we return here on One Bill's Live presented 1016 00:51:52,880 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 2: by co Lot of Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. 1017 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 1: The one Bills Live presented by Calida Health. 1018 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 2: All Right, welcome to our number two here on a Monday, 1019 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 2: Chris Brown, Steve tasker with you and working our way 1020 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,240 Speaker 2: through the second week of free agency, but our attention 1021 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 2: today has shifted somewhat to the draft, where our question 1022 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 2: on the table for you is as follows, why will 1023 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 2: the Bills be able to stay at twenty eight and 1024 00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 2: still get their guy? Maybe stay? 1025 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 3: Make your best argument to us. 1026 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 2: State your best argument to us as to why that 1027 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 2: will be the case. We're both pretty confident that the 1028 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:10,439 Speaker 2: Bills will be able to get a very very good 1029 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,400 Speaker 2: player at pick twenty eight, even if it is not 1030 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 2: at the necessary position of choice that me or Steve 1031 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 2: or any of you may have. But let us know, 1032 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:22,879 Speaker 2: why will the Bills be able to stay at twenty 1033 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:24,799 Speaker 2: eight and still get their guy? We go to the 1034 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 2: phones and waiting patiently. There has been Jack in cheek 1035 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 2: to Wargen, What do you got for us? 1036 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 3: Jack? 1037 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,920 Speaker 10: Hi? First of all, Happy bladed birthday to Chris, to 1038 00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 10: Eric and de Butcher yep. Thanks regarding the question. I 1039 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 10: don't think they're going to be able to get their 1040 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,919 Speaker 10: guy if they stay at twenty eight. Okay, Now there's 1041 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 10: a couple of aspects to this. We've got five or 1042 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 10: six weeks of free agency left, and we know that 1043 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 10: Brandon Bean's intention is to go into any draft not 1044 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 10: being forced into a position of need. So we've got 1045 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,920 Speaker 10: to believe that, you know, what we're talking about now 1046 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 10: isn't going to be the same five or six weeks 1047 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:01,439 Speaker 10: from now when. 1048 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 4: The draft comes up. 1049 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 10: But if it comes up and the offensive linemen the 1050 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 10: quarterbacks push other positions back in the draft, I think 1051 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 10: that the Bills are going to be looking at a 1052 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 10: situation where a guy that they did not think was 1053 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 10: going to be available is getting close, and therefore I 1054 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 10: think they're going to have to trade some of the 1055 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:27,440 Speaker 10: draft capital and move up in the draft to get 1056 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 10: their guy, just like they did with kin Kaid. Now, 1057 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 10: Arizona just traded Marquise Brown today and we're looking at 1058 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 10: the draft team drafting immediately in front of us, so 1059 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 10: we know that they're probably going to look at that 1060 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:49,160 Speaker 10: position in particular. I would think that him he's going 1061 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 10: to have to do a little move up to pick 1062 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 10: the guy. And like Steve said, it might he might 1063 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 10: not catch the ball. But if we're in good shape 1064 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 10: going into the draft, get the best player available, there's 1065 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 10: gonna be somebody they like and they're gonna have to 1066 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 10: trade some of that draft capital to, you know, to 1067 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 10: move up in the draft, whether it's four picks, five picks, 1068 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 10: whatever is reasonable to do with what we've got. I think, 1069 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 10: you know, that's what's going to be more likely. I 1070 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 10: don't see being trading back to fill a number three 1071 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 10: draft picks slot because he didn't get one from the 1072 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 10: league that he should have gotten. 1073 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:29,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, I. 1074 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 10: Don't see that because you've got eleven picks and you're 1075 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 10: not gonna use all of them. Put them the better 1076 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 10: use in move up when you have to. And I'm 1077 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:38,320 Speaker 10: gonna hang up and listen. 1078 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,479 Speaker 3: All Rightah, that's good Jack. That's something I hadn't thought 1079 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 3: about too much. We you always kind of tend to 1080 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 3: all of us. And I don't know if the Bills 1081 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 3: do this or not. I amn't really spoken. There's certain 1082 00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 3: guys you just know are not going to be there 1083 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 3: when you get there. And Jack's assertion is because of 1084 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,800 Speaker 3: all these quarterbacks and the and the offensive tackles and 1085 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:03,080 Speaker 3: edge guys and defensive tack all that there's gonna be 1086 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 3: a guy down at number twenty eight or getting close 1087 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,840 Speaker 3: to anith like you say, twenty three, right, twenty twenty one, 1088 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 3: twenty two, twenty three that the Bills did not think 1089 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 3: was gonna fall that far, and they got maybe a 1090 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 3: top ten value on this guy like Romadunze, right I'm 1091 00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 3: using I mean his example. 1092 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 4: Right. 1093 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 3: Then all of a sudden, you're thinking, okay, well we 1094 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 3: do have We've had conversations with and I'll give you that. 1095 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,799 Speaker 3: You know, we've had conversations with Miami and Philly and 1096 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:34,879 Speaker 3: Minnesota at twenty one, twenty two, and twenty three about 1097 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,360 Speaker 3: what it would take to move up, and now we 1098 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 3: do want to move up, and that guy might be 1099 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 3: worth it. So having a guy that was unexpected fall 1100 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 3: that far and maybe it's who knows what, maybe it's 1101 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 3: not a wide receiver, maybe somebody else. But nevertheless you're thinking, 1102 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 3: oh my gosh, how did that guy get to twenty three? 1103 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,840 Speaker 3: Then you're thinking, okay, everything's different. Now they are going 1104 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 3: to move up and get it. 1105 00:56:57,640 --> 00:56:59,840 Speaker 2: So I have to spring into action, which Brandon being 1106 00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 2: as a history of doing, we all know this. 1107 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 3: And last year he's he makes a good point. Last 1108 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:08,160 Speaker 3: year they went up and got Dalton King kid. Did 1109 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 3: they trade up for him? 1110 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:13,879 Speaker 2: Yes, they did one spot, one spot in a deal 1111 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 2: with Jacksonville. 1112 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:18,040 Speaker 3: Think about it. I mean that that's right, and that's 1113 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 3: not even for a wide out. 1114 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1115 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 2: Two things that Jack mentioned that I have to address. One, 1116 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 2: markis Brown was a free agent. Arizona did not trade him. 1117 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 2: He just signed as a free agent with Kansas City. Two, 1118 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 2: Arizona has two picks in Round one at four and 1119 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 2: twenty seven. So I think if you're a Bills fan, 1120 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 2: you're hoping that they take they that if they stay 1121 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 2: put at for they take Marvin Harrison Junior or Moleague neighbors, 1122 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 2: and the receiver need is not a concern for their 1123 00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 2: pick at twenty seven. Even if they trade out at 1124 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:52,400 Speaker 2: four and slide down the board to twelve or thirteen, 1125 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 2: they probably take one of the top three receivers there. 1126 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 2: If it's still on the board, and with all the 1127 00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,240 Speaker 2: quarterbacks at the top, it may push the people down, 1128 00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 2: so they do still get one of the top three 1129 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 2: receivers in the class. And so then you're concerned about 1130 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 2: pick twenty seven becomes moot and you don't have to 1131 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 2: worry about leap frogging them. I think your greater concern 1132 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 2: is probably you know, a team like Tampa. Uh, perhaps 1133 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 2: I don't you know. I don't think you gotta worry 1134 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,720 Speaker 2: about Philly. 1135 00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 3: I don't. 1136 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 2: I think Minnesota's fine. They drafted a receiver in Round 1137 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:35,120 Speaker 2: one last year, rafted in Addison, uh Dallas, they just 1138 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 2: threw Michael Gallop overboard. But they have people. Green Bay 1139 00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 2: they've been there, as Judy our Color earlier said, they've 1140 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 2: been drafted nothing but receivers in pass catching tight ends 1141 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 2: the last two years early in the draft. So I 1142 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 2: don't think they do that. Tampa. Tod got Mike Evans back, 1143 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 2: they still have Godwin, and if Arizona takes one with 1144 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 2: their first pick, you're okay. What you have to worry 1145 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 2: about his teams leap frogging you into that range. So 1146 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:07,760 Speaker 2: you know, like Baltimore, Well, but Baltimore drafted a first 1147 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 2: round receiver last year, and they need offensive line help. 1148 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 2: They lost John Simpson and they traded away their right tackle, 1149 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 2: Morgan Moses to the Jets. 1150 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 3: They lost obj. 1151 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,320 Speaker 2: They need they need offensive line help. The Ravens they'll 1152 00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:21,120 Speaker 2: draft an old line. 1153 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 3: Detroit's interesting what they're gonna do. Who they'd be looking at. 1154 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 2: I think you gotta be more worried about the teams 1155 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 2: behind you leap frogging you at twenty eight than you 1156 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 2: do about the teams in front of you. So then 1157 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 2: that that begs another question. What's the safe spot to 1158 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 2: move up to to make sure they don't leap frog you, like, 1159 00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 2: make it cost prohibitive for them to try to get 1160 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 2: in front of you by sliding up two spots yourself. 1161 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Pinpoint who the guy who 1162 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,640 Speaker 3: it is? Right? I mean it could be it could 1163 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 3: be any of those teams. It could be. It could 1164 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,720 Speaker 3: be Detroit, Baltimore, San Francisco or Kansas City or any 1165 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 3: of those guys in the. 1166 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 2: Set, Like if San fran loses eye. 1167 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 3: It could be Caroline or New England or Arizona in 1168 00:59:56,760 --> 01:00:02,080 Speaker 3: the second round, right you know? So yeah, that's the game. 1169 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 2: That's that's the game you're playing. 1170 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 3: Is and you know you sit tight. We've seen it 1171 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 3: work really well for teams. We've also you know, you 1172 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 3: also know the teams have been bit bitten by it. 1173 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 2: It's valid. So but Brandon Bean has pretty much not 1174 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 2: missed in round one. You could say what you want 1175 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 2: about the Kyrie Eland pink pick. I think the jury's 1176 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,880 Speaker 2: still out on that. Give it time because we gave 1177 01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 2: the at Oliver pick time. And howd that turn out 1178 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 2: pretty good in the year four. Yeah, so give it time. 1179 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 2: He does not miss it in round one. 1180 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,320 Speaker 3: There's been Yeah, there's been some guys too, A Jpanessa 1181 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 3: just you know, because of the COVID year. We talked 1182 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 3: about it last week about you know, a lot of 1183 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 3: these guys around the league his second round pick too, 1184 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 3: and we're delayed. We're delayed in their development because of 1185 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 3: the weirdness of the twenty twenty season. They kind of 1186 01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 3: didn't get a full season until twenty twenty one, and 1187 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 3: now twenty twenty four or twenty twenty three was their 1188 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,080 Speaker 3: third season, and so now those guys kind of spread 1189 01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:58,880 Speaker 3: their wings a little bit. So there's a little bit 1190 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 3: of that going on around the league. So yeah, I'm 1191 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 3: I've been really happy with the way the Bills have 1192 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 3: drafted up for the most part. And I and I'll 1193 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 3: say this too, I think Kyrie Elam is going to 1194 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 3: be a pleasant surprise this year. I think the changes 1195 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 3: on their coaching staff are going to help them help 1196 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:21,800 Speaker 3: him get a fresh set of eyes on him, give 1197 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 3: him a fresh start, and you know, plus clear the 1198 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,720 Speaker 3: deck a little bit, give him some more reps and 1199 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:30,920 Speaker 3: some more opportunity. Earlier in the season, so we'll see. 1200 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 3: But this is that's where we're sitting. You're right, I mean, 1201 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 3: I think that's really interesting. And this was from from 1202 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:47,480 Speaker 3: Jack about the problem is what makes you want to 1203 01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 3: jump up in the draft is when you get a 1204 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 3: guy within reach that you didn't think was in wh reach. 1205 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 2: And it's like, oh, that's when Brandon moves because think 1206 01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 2: about this, even after he traded up twice to get 1207 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,720 Speaker 2: Josh up at he thought Tremaine Edmonds was gonna be 1208 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 2: a top ten pick, he's at thirteen and he's still available, 1209 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 2: and he's been on the phone for ten minutes already 1210 01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:09,720 Speaker 2: trying to get back up there to go get him, 1211 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 2: and he ultimately does it picks sixteen. Right, So he 1212 01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 2: traded all his draft capital to get the quarterback, and 1213 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 2: then he sees this top ten prospect sliding into the 1214 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 2: middle of round one, he goes back up again. Yeah, 1215 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 2: and still didn't give away a future one. 1216 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:26,080 Speaker 3: It's unbelievable. 1217 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to Mike in Orchard Park, who's been 1218 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:29,560 Speaker 2: waiting patiently. 1219 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 7: What's up, Mike, Hey, Dylan, how you doing? Happy birthday? 1220 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 4: By thank you? 1221 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, So, guys, I'm looking I'm doing a deep guve 1222 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 7: into our roster right and we trust brandan Bean that 1223 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 7: make the right decisions. There's two positions I'm looking at. 1224 01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 7: Obviously receiver is the sexy pick, but I'm looking we lost, 1225 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 7: we lost base, we lost more. I'm looking at the 1226 01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 7: interior of our offensive line. If we move Connor to 1227 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 7: the center, that leads us with two active guards on 1228 01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 7: the roster right. So I'm looking at that group and 1229 01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 7: I feel like that was the foundation of this team 1230 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 7: last year. We finally got a solid group of five together. 1231 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 7: And the other position group, I'm looking at his safety 1232 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:15,919 Speaker 7: that leads us with Taylor Rapp and Cam Lewis back 1233 01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:20,440 Speaker 7: there and obviously Hamlin. So just depending on how this 1234 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 7: how this draft goes, I won't be surprised if you know, 1235 01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:28,160 Speaker 7: if you've got jack Power sitting there, you know, close 1236 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 7: to twenty seven twenty eight, or you know, you got 1237 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 7: Kitchens kind of kind of falling down to the to 1238 01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,840 Speaker 7: the later round one. So I'm just I don't know, 1239 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 7: just looking just my personal opinion. I'm looking at them 1240 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 7: two position position groups, and uh, you know, I wouldn't 1241 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:44,720 Speaker 7: be surprised. 1242 01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. The thing is interior o line not 1243 01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:53,760 Speaker 2: a strong year for that. So does that prompt some 1244 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 2: teams that really need one badly to get one early? 1245 01:03:58,560 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 4: Right? 1246 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 2: Because there are few? The guard people are like, why 1247 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:05,960 Speaker 2: are guards getting so much money in free agency? It's 1248 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 2: because there aren't any in the draft. Just feel good 1249 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 2: about plugging into the lineup like the Bills did last 1250 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 2: year with Osiris Torrance. There's not too many a guys, 1251 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 2: not too many guys like that this year maybe three. 1252 01:04:17,400 --> 01:04:20,120 Speaker 2: So there's gonna be a premium on interior line guys. 1253 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 2: And uh, Fortunately the Bills are in a position where 1254 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 2: they have starting guards. 1255 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 3: They got well if you count McGovern which is now 1256 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 3: he's now kind of a center, you got three of them, 1257 01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 3: David Edwards, Osirius Torrance, which are two pretty good ones. 1258 01:04:33,720 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 3: And then you've got the depth guy from from last year, 1259 01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 3: Kevin Jarvis, is still on the rosters. They got bodies, 1260 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 3: but Kevin Jarvis, I don't know if you got Alec Anderson. 1261 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 3: And Alec Anderson, who was attacked listed as a tackle, well, 1262 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:49,120 Speaker 3: he came in as a tackle because that's where he 1263 01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 3: played at UCLA, but I think the Bills see him 1264 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 3: as a center guard guy, right, So there you go. 1265 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 3: It's yeah, I don't know what you're what you're gonna 1266 01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:03,439 Speaker 3: do with when this draft comes to I think they're 1267 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 3: fine on the offensive line. I just say that, and 1268 01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 3: I rarely say that this team. We've seen it other teams. 1269 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,960 Speaker 3: One of the most critical things that falls apart for 1270 01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 3: every team is their offensive line. It's half of your 1271 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,720 Speaker 3: roster on the offense, and you've got to get it right. 1272 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 3: You have five guys on the field all the time, 1273 01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:26,520 Speaker 3: and they've got to be clicking otherwise nothing else works. 1274 01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:28,800 Speaker 3: Nothing else works. Now, certainly you got a guy like 1275 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 3: Josh or Mahomes or Lamar, they can transcend that. Even 1276 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:37,720 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow who doesn't run at all, and he just 1277 01:05:38,240 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 3: ends up. He's ends up between plays, every between every play, 1278 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:44,920 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow is on his back. He hits the ground 1279 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:48,240 Speaker 3: every single pass play. When with that offensive line in 1280 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 3: Cincinnati three years ago, well they kind of fixed it up, 1281 01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:52,760 Speaker 3: and now they go to the super Bowl, and now 1282 01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 3: now he gets hurt again and now they can't go again. 1283 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:58,080 Speaker 3: But if you don't have that offensive line, none of 1284 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 3: this other stuff works. The Bills don't have that problem 1285 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 3: right now. 1286 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:01,840 Speaker 4: Now. 1287 01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 3: They they're you know, Osiris filled a huge hole for them. 1288 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 3: Last year, and so did McGovern. But now Mitch isn't here, 1289 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:09,880 Speaker 3: and now you're gonna shift it around. But you've got 1290 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 3: those guys, you think now their depth is a question 1291 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:15,640 Speaker 3: mark right now, I would say no question about it. 1292 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,000 Speaker 3: But last year they didn't need it. 1293 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 2: And the Bills have done a good job in the 1294 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 2: later rounds drafting linemen that would have made their roster 1295 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:27,200 Speaker 2: if it wasn't as deep. I mean, you go all 1296 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 2: the way back to three years ago when they drafted 1297 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:32,720 Speaker 2: Jack Anderson in Round seven, a guard center prospect. He 1298 01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 2: got poached off their practice squad and is still on 1299 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:39,360 Speaker 2: active rosters. I think he's in Indie now. Nick Broker, 1300 01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 2: they drafted in the sixth round last year as a guard. 1301 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:44,480 Speaker 2: He was on their practice squad because he couldn't make 1302 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 2: their roster because of the depth they had with veterans, 1303 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,160 Speaker 2: and he gets poached off their roster by another team. 1304 01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:52,080 Speaker 2: I think he's in Houston. So the Bills have done 1305 01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 2: a good job of drafting interior offensive lineman late in 1306 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 2: the draft, good enough to make rosters in this league, 1307 01:06:57,760 --> 01:06:59,439 Speaker 2: so I think they'll be able to find another one. 1308 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 2: I don't think they have to do it early. Let's 1309 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,480 Speaker 2: go to Dave in Eerie, Pa. Next, what's up, Dave. 1310 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:09,600 Speaker 11: Hey, Christlas David. It's a pleasure to be on. What 1311 01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:11,720 Speaker 11: are the chances I don't know if they've been picked 1312 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,880 Speaker 11: up by somebody else, Shaq Lawson and Brandon Phillips coming 1313 01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 11: back here. 1314 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 3: Jordan Phillips, I think you mean right. 1315 01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 11: I mean, yeah, I mean I mean Jordan Philips. 1316 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think there's a fair chance. Jordan 1317 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 2: Phillips is back for two reasons. Number One, he should 1318 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 2: be affordable because each of the last two seasons for 1319 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 2: him have ended in injury, and I think you can 1320 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:37,160 Speaker 2: use that. You're not purposely trying to use that as 1321 01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 2: a negotiating tactic against him, but facts are facts. He's 1322 01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 2: had trouble being available throughout the whole season, and so 1323 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 2: because of that, knowing your cap situation is tight, I 1324 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,240 Speaker 2: think you could get him at an affordable number. I 1325 01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 2: believe he played last year on a one year, four 1326 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 2: million dollar deal. You might be able to cut that 1327 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,320 Speaker 2: in half or a little bit more, just because of 1328 01:07:56,360 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 2: his injury history the last two seasons, shoulder surgery at 1329 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 2: the end of last year, and then what did he 1330 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 2: have this year? He had the wrist. He had a 1331 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 2: wrist and risk surgery that kept him out of the 1332 01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:12,479 Speaker 2: postseason this past year. I know he loves playing here 1333 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:14,520 Speaker 2: and I'm sure the Bills would like to have him, 1334 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 2: but I think they're gonna have to talk turkey about 1335 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 2: contract number and hopefully it's amenable to both sides, wh 1336 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:22,960 Speaker 2: when the Bills have a tight cap situation. As far 1337 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 2: as Shock goes, he played injured most of last year 1338 01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 2: with an ankle issue. He's on the wrong side of thirty. 1339 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if he resigns with the Bills. I 1340 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 2: think that's a June signing, right, Yeah, both of them 1341 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:37,760 Speaker 2: summer signing. 1342 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:39,840 Speaker 3: Both of them probably are because, let's face it, at 1343 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:43,519 Speaker 3: this point in their careers, those guys want the top 1344 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 3: dollar no matter where it is. They got to do 1345 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:47,919 Speaker 3: it because they don't know when this could end, particularly 1346 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 3: a guy like Jordan Phillips who's now he has been 1347 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:51,760 Speaker 3: nicked up a little bit and it's hard to bounce back. 1348 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 3: They're going to get the top dollar they can and 1349 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 3: the but the demand is probably going to be diminished, 1350 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:01,599 Speaker 3: so then they start to weigh the differences in those 1351 01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 3: contracts and where they want to work. The later it gets, 1352 01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,000 Speaker 3: the more likely to me, the more likely they are 1353 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:09,680 Speaker 3: going to sign back here. 1354 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 2: Shack has signed one of your deals I think each 1355 01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 2: of the last two years to come back to play 1356 01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,559 Speaker 2: for Buffalo, and I think Phillips has done the same. 1357 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 2: So it wouldn't shock me if they want to be 1358 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:19,400 Speaker 2: back here, they're gonna have to go down that same 1359 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:22,080 Speaker 2: road again, and maybe for even less money, better a minimum. 1360 01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 2: Stuff like that. We'll have to see. 1361 01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 3: Let's go to Mark and West senecon next. What's up Mark? 1362 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:30,560 Speaker 12: Hey, guys all right today? Good hey, Happy birthday to 1363 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:32,519 Speaker 12: the new three amigos. 1364 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 3: Eric, Eric, and Butch. 1365 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,800 Speaker 12: Yeah so, And I gotta say I love listening to 1366 01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:43,240 Speaker 12: the Butcher. I'm also from the east Side. All the 1367 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:47,880 Speaker 12: smart bull fans come from the east Side. So the 1368 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:52,719 Speaker 12: reason I called is as far as the receivers, if 1369 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 12: Mitchell or Thomas they're not on the board at twenty eight, 1370 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:57,920 Speaker 12: I'm with Butch moved down. As long as you don't 1371 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,640 Speaker 12: go any lower than forty forty two stay above that 1372 01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:04,719 Speaker 12: that I'm all for moving down. But that The reason 1373 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 12: I called, though, is see what that board you have 1374 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 12: there with the value of picks. What can the Bills 1375 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 12: do by packaging there are two fours, maybe a four 1376 01:10:18,880 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 12: and five. How far would that get them up the board? 1377 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:24,559 Speaker 12: Would it even get them anywhere near the third round? 1378 01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 12: First of all? And then more importantly in my mind, 1379 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 12: would there be any safeties that you realistically think are 1380 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,600 Speaker 12: worth picking that high that would still be on the 1381 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,560 Speaker 12: board that the Bills might be looking at, because I 1382 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:43,680 Speaker 12: really think after receiver d tackle that's where they need 1383 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:45,559 Speaker 12: to go. They need to get some youth in net defense. 1384 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 3: Say you work on. 1385 01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 2: Do you see what that gets? 1386 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 3: That awesome? 1387 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:51,240 Speaker 2: I'll help them with safety. 1388 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:54,759 Speaker 3: That gets them all the way. That'll get them. That'll 1389 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 3: only get them to pick one o five one oh six, 1390 01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 3: It won't even get them into the third round. But 1391 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,479 Speaker 3: if they if they package those are the two fours, 1392 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 3: that's what pick one twenty eight and one thirty four, 1393 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,720 Speaker 3: you could get all the way to pick one oh 1394 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,240 Speaker 3: five one oh six. Now they do. And now if 1395 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:15,280 Speaker 3: you want to throw in pick one sixty uh, that 1396 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 3: would get them to that would get them right to 1397 01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 3: the end of the third round of the compensatory picks, 1398 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 3: like where Washington, the Rams and Philly ar that's picked 1399 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 3: one ninety seven through one hundred. You might be able 1400 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:32,960 Speaker 3: to get up that high, but that's only at the 1401 01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 3: end of the third round. That's if you do three picks. 1402 01:11:37,160 --> 01:11:41,519 Speaker 3: So they've got pick one forty four. If you throw 1403 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,760 Speaker 3: one forty four in with one twenty eight and one 1404 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:49,760 Speaker 3: thirty four, Uh, that would get you to you know, 1405 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:52,160 Speaker 3: that gets you into the well, that'd get you right 1406 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:53,479 Speaker 3: at the end of the third round. They'd get you 1407 01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:56,720 Speaker 3: ahead of the compensatory picks. That's about it. You're not 1408 01:11:56,760 --> 01:12:00,240 Speaker 3: gonna get very high. That's three picks. That's trading three 1409 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:04,040 Speaker 3: picks to move up thirty spots from one twenty eight 1410 01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:04,960 Speaker 3: to like ninety eight. 1411 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 2: Right, And as far as safeties, that could be you know, 1412 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:14,240 Speaker 2: in the back half around three. If that's where you're 1413 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:18,080 Speaker 2: looking to move, I think you're talking about a player 1414 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 2: like Javon Bullard who's going to be knocked for his size. 1415 01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 2: He's only five eleven point eighty, although if you watch 1416 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 2: him at Georgia, he plays bigger than his size, and 1417 01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 2: I think he has enough speed to play the deep half. 1418 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 2: What the Bills really need at safety right now with 1419 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 2: Taylor Rap back in the fold as a center fielder, 1420 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,679 Speaker 2: somebody in the back end that can cover the deep half. 1421 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,639 Speaker 2: Bullard can do that, and at five eleven point eighty, 1422 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:44,840 Speaker 2: the size isn't as much of a factor. If he's 1423 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,720 Speaker 2: playing twenty yards from the line of scrimmage most of 1424 01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 2: the time and he's got he's enough of a ball 1425 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:52,320 Speaker 2: hawk to do that. The other guy that I like 1426 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:54,960 Speaker 2: is Cole Bishop. Now, he played a lot closer to 1427 01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:58,840 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage for Utah and would blow up 1428 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:00,880 Speaker 2: everything near the line of image. That guy blew up 1429 01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 2: screens better than anybody ever saw in college football. Last 1430 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:09,000 Speaker 2: season when he clocked a four four five at the combine, 1431 01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:13,880 Speaker 2: I think it signaled to NFL clubs, Oh, this guy 1432 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 2: has the speed to play free if we wanted him to. 1433 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:18,760 Speaker 2: The question is, you know, has he do on the 1434 01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 2: wonder lick? How does he test on the board and 1435 01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 2: all of that stuff. Is he quick on the uptake 1436 01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 2: to transition from a box safety to a free safety. 1437 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 2: Is he interchangeable? And if he is, then I think 1438 01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:31,000 Speaker 2: he is a consideration there. That's the information that people 1439 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 2: like us don't have because we're not sitting down with 1440 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:35,600 Speaker 2: him in a room and putting him on the board. 1441 01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:39,599 Speaker 3: Right, And that's that's true of every team and every 1442 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,040 Speaker 3: every coaching staff and scouting staff. And I'll say this too, 1443 01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:47,960 Speaker 3: there are some don't underestimate the ability of other teams, 1444 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:51,599 Speaker 3: even though they're all doing the same thing. I'm shocked 1445 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:54,880 Speaker 3: at the disparities between what one team thinks about a 1446 01:13:54,920 --> 01:14:00,040 Speaker 3: player and another team thinks about him. It's shocking. But 1447 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:03,080 Speaker 3: they the different the wide variety, the spectrum of opinions 1448 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:07,840 Speaker 3: there are about these guys, don't underestimate the value. And 1449 01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,040 Speaker 3: that's why guys will say, why is this guy still available? Yeah, 1450 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,760 Speaker 3: and there'll be two or three or five teams that say, 1451 01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:16,679 Speaker 3: we don't like the guy. We have a red flag 1452 01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 3: on him, we have this on him, we have that 1453 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 3: on him, we found this out about him, or we 1454 01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 3: think we think this about him. Sometimes it's not even fact, 1455 01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:30,240 Speaker 3: it's just opinion. That's that's the enormousy the enormity of 1456 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:31,599 Speaker 3: the unknowns in this draft part. 1457 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,880 Speaker 2: The one other safety prospect who should be there laid 1458 01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:36,720 Speaker 2: Day two early Day three is Dadrian Taylor Demerson from 1459 01:14:36,800 --> 01:14:41,639 Speaker 2: Texas Tech five' eleven, one ninety five. That guy can 1460 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 2: be a center field safety and the most attractive thing 1461 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:46,479 Speaker 2: about his game is Texas Tech used him at all 1462 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 2: three levels of their defense up at the line of scrimmage, 1463 01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:52,840 Speaker 2: in coverage, in run support, in the slot, and in 1464 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 2: the deep half. So and he has shown the athleticism 1465 01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,240 Speaker 2: capable of playing all three levels of your defense. So 1466 01:14:58,360 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 2: you want a guy coming in the door that has 1467 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 2: versatility already. That might be a guy Taylor Demerson to 1468 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:06,599 Speaker 2: keep an eye on late Day two, early Day three 1469 01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:08,320 Speaker 2: if the Bill's trade up into the bottom of the 1470 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:10,640 Speaker 2: third round or stay there in the top half of 1471 01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:12,760 Speaker 2: the fourth. We have to take a break here, but 1472 01:15:12,840 --> 01:15:14,680 Speaker 2: Bob and Cheek Towaga is gonna lead us off. When 1473 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 2: we return, DJ and Niagara falls, we'll get to you 1474 01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 2: as well. Open phone lines for you. As we're talking 1475 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:21,840 Speaker 2: about the Bills pick at twenty eight, why will they 1476 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:23,800 Speaker 2: be able to stay there and get their guy? Make 1477 01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 2: the argument for us here on One Bill's Live. Stay 1478 01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:43,960 Speaker 2: tuned all right back here on One Bill's Live. Chris Brown, 1479 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:45,519 Speaker 2: Steve Tamsk here on a Monday. Good to have you 1480 01:15:45,640 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 2: with us as we are discussing Buffalo's first round pick 1481 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 2: at number twenty eight. Make the argument for us, why 1482 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:54,519 Speaker 2: will the Bills be able to sit at twenty eight 1483 01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:57,559 Speaker 2: and still get their guy? If you disagree, that's fine too, 1484 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 2: but make your case at eight O three five fifty 1485 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:02,160 Speaker 2: you got some open lines for you there one eight 1486 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 2: five fifty two five fifty. 1487 01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 3: We lead off with Bob and Cheek Dewoga. In this 1488 01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:07,240 Speaker 3: segment we got for us Bob. 1489 01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:11,439 Speaker 13: Hi, Guys, I want to say this. I think they'll 1490 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 13: stay right at twenty eight. And I think they're in 1491 01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:16,759 Speaker 13: good shape to do that because the signing of Samuel 1492 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:21,160 Speaker 13: Washington was really smart move and I think up and 1493 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 13: ASA on defense signing him, and I think losing Lloyd hurt, 1494 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:29,040 Speaker 13: but I think von Miller is going to be back 1495 01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:32,680 Speaker 13: better than people think. In that last playoff game, he 1496 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:35,639 Speaker 13: was pushing off a little bit better on the foot. 1497 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:39,720 Speaker 13: So I think they're going to draft the receiver just 1498 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:41,960 Speaker 13: like they always wanted to win at twenty eighth, and 1499 01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:45,559 Speaker 13: I'm opening it to McConkey, but I don't know who 1500 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:47,760 Speaker 13: it will be. But I think that's the reason they'll 1501 01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:50,200 Speaker 13: be able to stay at twenty eight is because of 1502 01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 13: what they did with Samuel, and I think they they 1503 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 13: made some smart moves and I see him drafting and then, 1504 01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 13: like you guys said, in the third round, you can 1505 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:02,400 Speaker 13: get your safety and you can get your defensive tackle 1506 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 13: or end that chump. But I would stay right where 1507 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:06,960 Speaker 13: they are, and I think that's why they will. 1508 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:11,720 Speaker 3: When you say that, yeah, you're right, I mean we forget, Yeah, 1509 01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 3: Curtis Samuel is a good player, and you're right, that 1510 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 3: was we thought they might do this, and we kind 1511 01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 3: of forget every season that Brandon Bean seems to have 1512 01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 3: the ability to get this team pretty much filled in 1513 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,720 Speaker 3: with whatever voids they have before the draft so that 1514 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,760 Speaker 3: they are more free to take somebody other than some 1515 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:32,759 Speaker 3: glaring need. And it's, you know, it's the old adage 1516 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:36,560 Speaker 3: that goes, you know, need is a horrible talent evaluator, 1517 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:38,679 Speaker 3: So you never want to go into the draft where 1518 01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:42,519 Speaker 3: with you got to have a player at this position 1519 01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 3: or that position. The Bills are pretty much there right now, 1520 01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:51,800 Speaker 3: even at wide receiver with the Samuel signing, so I'm yeah, 1521 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 3: that does take a big edge off. But nevertheless, there 1522 01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 3: is this thought that the Bills are going to have 1523 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:06,599 Speaker 3: to start refurbishing at that spot because dig is gonna 1524 01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 3: be in his early thirties a you know, and Samuel 1525 01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 3: Samuel be twenty nine, and you know, so the all 1526 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 3: of that stuff, and pretty soon it's going to be 1527 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 3: at other positions as well. Now this year it's also 1528 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 3: at safety. Because of the two guys that they're losing 1529 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 3: or doesn't look like a hide's going to be back 1530 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:26,519 Speaker 3: poier in hide, they're gonna have to do something about 1531 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 3: that spot. I would be surprised if the one thing 1532 01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 3: that keeps Sean McDermott awake at night at this time 1533 01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 3: of year, in this situation where we're at at this 1534 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 3: point in history, I'll bet it's the safety spot. I'll 1535 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 3: bet it's the safety position. He's the coordinator, he's the 1536 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 3: guy that when they first got here, the first two 1537 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:49,599 Speaker 3: guys he signed were poorer in hide. That's and those 1538 01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:52,799 Speaker 3: are the guys. I would be surprised if that's changed. 1539 01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:55,120 Speaker 3: And so when you look at the roster of the way, 1540 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 3: it's right now Sean mcdermotts saying there, you know, looking 1541 01:18:57,360 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 3: at the ceiling in bed at night, he's going, man, 1542 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 3: we gotta we got to find somebody. Can we find 1543 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,120 Speaker 3: two guys like those two guys? And that's I think 1544 01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:12,680 Speaker 3: that's it. So it it may be that if one 1545 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 3: of the if that if the best safety in the 1546 01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 3: draft does fall to twenty eight, they go there. 1547 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:19,000 Speaker 2: I don't know that there's any I mean, the only 1548 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 2: safety that I think would merit any consideration in the 1549 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:25,599 Speaker 2: top forty picks would be Tyler Newban, the Minnesota kid 1550 01:19:25,640 --> 01:19:28,600 Speaker 2: who proke call of Antoine Winfield junior's records for the 1551 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 2: Golden Gophers had thirteen career interceptions. That's probably the only 1552 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:35,360 Speaker 2: safety going in the top fifty. Maybe somebody does like 1553 01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:38,400 Speaker 2: him enough to take him in round one. But to 1554 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 2: your point about filling in the two safety holes, I 1555 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:46,439 Speaker 2: think after seeing the daunting situation that that can present 1556 01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:48,439 Speaker 2: to a defense, I don't think they want the same 1557 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 2: situation at any position on offense, and that's why they 1558 01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 2: may dip back into the receiver pool. Even though they 1559 01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:57,800 Speaker 2: did sign Curtis Samuel. I'm glad we lasted an hour 1560 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:00,559 Speaker 2: and a half into the show before somebody met Curtis 1561 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:05,120 Speaker 2: Samuel as a means of at least reducing the urgency 1562 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:08,920 Speaker 2: of grabbing a receiver in round one should the value 1563 01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 2: not be right, You're not at the end of your 1564 01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:13,760 Speaker 2: rope because you have Curtis Samuel on your roster now. 1565 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:17,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't think that precludes you from taking 1566 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:20,400 Speaker 2: a receiver because of what lies down the pike. In 1567 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five at the position with Digs another year older, 1568 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:28,040 Speaker 2: Samuel another year older, you know, in pushing thirty. So 1569 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:32,080 Speaker 2: you need an influx of youth. And I know people argue, well, 1570 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:34,839 Speaker 2: don't you have that with Justin Shorter and Khalil Shakir 1571 01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:37,760 Speaker 2: and Dalton Kincaid even though he plays tight end, and 1572 01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:40,479 Speaker 2: I would say yes, and James Cook even right. But 1573 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:43,759 Speaker 2: at the same time, there's a specific type of player 1574 01:20:43,800 --> 01:20:47,880 Speaker 2: you need lining up outside at wide receiver, and if 1575 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 2: you have a player in Diggs who may not be 1576 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 2: able to fulfill that down in and down out for 1577 01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:56,480 Speaker 2: seventeen games anymore, you better have somebody in the pipeline 1578 01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 2: that you know is capable of doing that, and that 1579 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:04,439 Speaker 2: I think is what keeps receiver position, you know, one 1580 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 2: of their top three needs. For sure. Let's go to 1581 01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:08,600 Speaker 2: DJ and Niagara falls next. What do you got for 1582 01:21:08,640 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 2: his DJ? 1583 01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:10,760 Speaker 4: How's going guys? 1584 01:21:11,040 --> 01:21:12,920 Speaker 14: I think a lot of the stuff you just hit 1585 01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 14: on as well is the fact that we lost two 1586 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:18,600 Speaker 14: of the three wide receivers that we just replaced with 1587 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:22,519 Speaker 14: Matt Collins and Curtis Samuel, which helped, but it doesn't 1588 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:24,800 Speaker 14: change the need of the fact that, yeah, Diggs has 1589 01:21:25,160 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 14: got a few years left at most. You got to 1590 01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 14: replace Gabe Davis's spot and want someone to take over that. 1591 01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:34,240 Speaker 14: So I think wide receiver one is that you know, 1592 01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 14: pick at first round for us anyways, and I think 1593 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:40,120 Speaker 14: the biggest thing is it's less of what the Bills need. 1594 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:43,559 Speaker 14: And also looking at the teams around us, the pick 1595 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:44,599 Speaker 14: twenty one down. 1596 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:45,120 Speaker 4: To twenty eight. 1597 01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:47,760 Speaker 14: Many of those teams, I would be shocked if ave 1598 01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 14: them to take a wide receiver. But I'm looking at 1599 01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:53,200 Speaker 14: you got the Chiefs below us and the Ravens below us. 1600 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 14: We're all competing for the same players, and we've seen 1601 01:21:56,360 --> 01:22:00,560 Speaker 14: the AFC just reload on offense. We're all competing for 1602 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:03,400 Speaker 14: the same thing. You need offense in order to win, 1603 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:06,280 Speaker 14: and they all need wide receivers as well. You have 1604 01:22:06,439 --> 01:22:08,760 Speaker 14: to imagine that Brandon Bean knows that they're looking at 1605 01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:11,560 Speaker 14: the same players, and it's not only who do we 1606 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 14: get on our guy, but how do we make sure 1607 01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 14: our guide doesn't go to our top competition. Who's gonna 1608 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:19,880 Speaker 14: burn us if they get over us to get them instead. 1609 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,160 Speaker 2: I respect that, I mean I do respect that, but 1610 01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:26,720 Speaker 2: that you can't you can't live that way. And I'll 1611 01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 2: say this. If there's one advantage that the Bills have 1612 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:34,880 Speaker 2: at this very moment over teams like the Chiefs and 1613 01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:38,080 Speaker 2: the Ravens is their offensive line is in much better 1614 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 2: shape than theirs. The Chiefs need tackle help and the 1615 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 2: Ravens need tackle and guard help. They lost John Simpson 1616 01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:49,840 Speaker 2: and traded Morgan Moses to the Jets, so they don't 1617 01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:52,280 Speaker 2: have a starting guard and a starting tackle from last 1618 01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:54,760 Speaker 2: year's squad. All the Bills lost was a center, which 1619 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:57,639 Speaker 2: isn't nothing, but I think they already have a plan 1620 01:22:57,760 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 2: in place as to how to address that. I don't 1621 01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 2: know that the Ravens do at two starting line positions 1622 01:23:03,280 --> 01:23:05,960 Speaker 2: on their roster, and I think we can all feel 1623 01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,719 Speaker 2: comfortable in the fact that the Chiefs were not happy 1624 01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:12,280 Speaker 2: with the performance they got at the tackle position from 1625 01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:16,519 Speaker 2: Donovan Smith, who's a free agent, and Juwan Taylor, who 1626 01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:20,759 Speaker 2: had more penalties than any other lineman in football last season. 1627 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 2: So round one, I mean, they might want a receiver 1628 01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 2: as much as the next guy, but knowing Baltimore and 1629 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:33,800 Speaker 2: their history of developing it in the trenches, I think 1630 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,439 Speaker 2: they go O line there at thirty and if not, 1631 01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:40,160 Speaker 2: probably corner because they need a corner something bad. 1632 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:44,160 Speaker 3: You're right, though, I mean the Baltimore Ravens, the Kansas 1633 01:23:44,160 --> 01:23:46,960 Speaker 3: City Chiefs, and the Cincinnati Bengals to a certain extent 1634 01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 3: as well. All those teams know and I think they're 1635 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:51,400 Speaker 3: in the same spot. We see it as an arms race. 1636 01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:56,040 Speaker 3: You got to score, and defenses are being more and 1637 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 3: more by virtue of rules changes and the way they're 1638 01:23:59,200 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 3: calling games being hamstrung even more and more. So it's 1639 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,240 Speaker 3: more offense, more offense, more offense, more scoring, more scoring. 1640 01:24:06,720 --> 01:24:10,360 Speaker 3: All of that is happening, and you got to stay 1641 01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:13,240 Speaker 3: up with it. And those three teams are four teams 1642 01:24:13,280 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 3: that I mentioned along with San Diego and now looks 1643 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 3: like Houston, San Diego, LA Chargers, and Houston Jacksonville has 1644 01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 3: been on that train, although you know Trevor Lawrence took 1645 01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 3: a step back last year Indianapolis with Anthony Richardson. All 1646 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:31,600 Speaker 3: these teams with these quarterbacks, no, you gotta have a 1647 01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:34,439 Speaker 3: guy that can score on anybody at any time. And 1648 01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:38,679 Speaker 3: so just the fact that the Chiefs and the Ravens 1649 01:24:38,680 --> 01:24:40,560 Speaker 3: and all these other teams are in that boat with 1650 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:43,479 Speaker 3: you doesn't mean you should build your team like you're 1651 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:45,880 Speaker 3: not gonna keep good players off those teams you're just not. 1652 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:48,040 Speaker 3: You got to build your team as good as you 1653 01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:51,240 Speaker 3: can build it. That's too. You can't. As much as 1654 01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:54,679 Speaker 3: it would be great, you can't sabotage them the dragons. 1655 01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:58,720 Speaker 3: You can't do it. It's it's wasted energy and or 1656 01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:03,519 Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna cripple yourself in your attempt to 1657 01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:08,120 Speaker 3: cripple another team's draft order. So don't worry about that. 1658 01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:10,080 Speaker 3: You build your team as good as you can build it. 1659 01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:13,080 Speaker 3: And the other teams, you know, let them worry about them. 1660 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:17,439 Speaker 3: I get it though, I mean it's it's easy to 1661 01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:19,840 Speaker 3: worry about Kansas City and those guys, you know, when 1662 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:21,880 Speaker 3: you're sitting over here and there. You can't get past 1663 01:25:21,960 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 3: them in the playoffs, the top of either and they're 1664 01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:25,640 Speaker 3: going back. They went back to the super Bowl two 1665 01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:28,439 Speaker 3: times in a row. And want it. Nah, you can't 1666 01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:30,360 Speaker 3: do You can't live like that. Don't let yourself fall 1667 01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:33,360 Speaker 3: into that that trap, because there's no way out. Just 1668 01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:36,240 Speaker 3: focus on building the Yeah, build you can and play 1669 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,680 Speaker 3: good on that day. Let's go to Will in Virginia X. 1670 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:40,320 Speaker 2: What's up, Will? 1671 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:42,560 Speaker 4: Hey? What's up? Can you hear me? 1672 01:25:42,720 --> 01:25:42,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1673 01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:44,720 Speaker 4: Hey, what's up? Christ? 1674 01:25:44,720 --> 01:25:45,679 Speaker 8: And Steve and I have birthday. 1675 01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:45,920 Speaker 3: Chris. 1676 01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:49,640 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if I probably missed this, but I 1677 01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:51,680 Speaker 4: know that the Bills play like heavy nickel and like 1678 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,280 Speaker 4: heavy dime. But is it possible to like switch the 1679 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,960 Speaker 4: base defense and the posse switch Taron Johnson the safety. 1680 01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:00,000 Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying. 1681 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 3: I wish, but ice defense and what safety. 1682 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:05,160 Speaker 2: Move Taron Johnson to safety? I think Terren's too valuable 1683 01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:08,200 Speaker 2: as a nickel to move him to another spot. 1684 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:11,479 Speaker 3: Don't ask, Yeah, don't ask a player. 1685 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:14,680 Speaker 2: He's a second team All Pro at nickel corner. I 1686 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:19,280 Speaker 2: really don't want to try to fix one problem and 1687 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:20,960 Speaker 2: create another, if you know what I mean. 1688 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 3: I have a hard time thinking moving Tarran to safety 1689 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:27,120 Speaker 3: would give you an all pro safety as much as 1690 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:29,559 Speaker 3: subtracting an all pro nickel. Right. 1691 01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 2: It's kind of a bird in the hand versus two 1692 01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:31,840 Speaker 2: in the bushes. 1693 01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:34,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't know that Taron Johnson is 1694 01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:37,559 Speaker 3: gonna play safety better than he played nickel corner. 1695 01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:39,719 Speaker 2: It's another best in the league. 1696 01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:44,000 Speaker 3: Just like saying a guy's gonna play inside linebacker better 1697 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:47,599 Speaker 3: than he plays outside linebacker or something like that. I mean, 1698 01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:51,840 Speaker 3: I say, yeah, I get it. Keep good players on 1699 01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:54,519 Speaker 3: the field and replace. But I don't know why who 1700 01:26:54,560 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 3: you're gonna put in at the third linebacker. 1701 01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:00,400 Speaker 2: Or at the nickel corner. I mean, William Lewis, you. 1702 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 3: Know you're gonna you're gonna put in you know, the 1703 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:08,200 Speaker 3: third linebacker. I mean, was it Dorrian Williams? And then 1704 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:12,080 Speaker 3: play you know, play you know Bernard and Milano, and 1705 01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:14,800 Speaker 3: then have Dorian Williams on the field, you know, and 1706 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 3: spots and we give it a try. I don't know, 1707 01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 3: but I don't know how. 1708 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:20,200 Speaker 2: Dorian Wims can big a void at the position you 1709 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:23,160 Speaker 2: take Taran out of, which is clearly his best position 1710 01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:26,000 Speaker 2: where you know he is second. He's all pro level 1711 01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,160 Speaker 2: at that spot. I can't see moving him for anything. 1712 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:31,360 Speaker 3: I have a hard time seeing Dorrian Williams or anybody 1713 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,240 Speaker 3: else garden. What are they gonna do when they go 1714 01:27:33,320 --> 01:27:36,400 Speaker 3: three wide and go on? You can't go man, You 1715 01:27:36,439 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 3: can't play man. 1716 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:38,920 Speaker 2: And I guess you could drop him down into the 1717 01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:41,040 Speaker 2: box and cover the slot from his safety position and 1718 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:42,639 Speaker 2: then there's somebody else on the field, But then you're 1719 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:44,479 Speaker 2: doing what you did in the beginning. Anyway, Yeah, then 1720 01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 2: you're back to leave him there and don't make a 1721 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:48,920 Speaker 2: don't make an easy math problem more complicated. 1722 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:51,080 Speaker 3: If you do that, you're not You're not gonna be 1723 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:52,720 Speaker 3: able to put somebody in there who can play man 1724 01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:55,519 Speaker 3: like like tarran Can and then hold up in the 1725 01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 3: run game as well. 1726 01:27:56,920 --> 01:27:58,840 Speaker 2: Got to take a break here. Some thoughts on the 1727 01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:00,800 Speaker 2: tweet seet. When we return here on one Bill's Live, 1728 01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:20,560 Speaker 2: stay tuned all right quickly. Some final thoughts on the 1729 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,080 Speaker 2: tweet sheet here, presented by Corgan Moving System is the 1730 01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:25,360 Speaker 2: official equipment moving company of the Buffalo Bills. Why will 1731 01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 2: the Bills be able to stay at twenty eight still 1732 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,600 Speaker 2: get their guy? Cherry Red says they'll be able to 1733 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:31,719 Speaker 2: stay at twenty eight and still land their guy because 1734 01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:33,799 Speaker 2: the roster is already so strong that they can select 1735 01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:38,280 Speaker 2: the best man standing. Ad Mitchell available, question Mark, he Works, Chop, 1736 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 2: Braden Fisk, Johnny Newton, Byron Murphy, Cooper, Dejean, Lad McConkie, Bullard, 1737 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 2: Kinchins all make us better. Also, some team's gonna screw 1738 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:50,880 Speaker 2: up and go off script, leaving a great value player 1739 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 2: to us. 1740 01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:55,280 Speaker 3: There is always one of those, right, I forgot about that. 1741 01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 2: Somebody makes a sharp left turn at Albuquerque and everybody's going. 1742 01:29:00,200 --> 01:29:04,000 Speaker 3: There's always somebody out there going they took who and 1743 01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:06,439 Speaker 3: you go down. You love when that was cold strange. 1744 01:29:06,479 --> 01:29:08,519 Speaker 3: A couple of years of range is the is the 1745 01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 3: one we always go to there, you know, and you 1746 01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 3: go back years and years. That always happens. Somebody goes 1747 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 3: off script. 1748 01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:19,120 Speaker 2: Jmax says, I think six wide receivers go before twenty eight, 1749 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:21,559 Speaker 2: and possibly seven in round one. That would tiere record. 1750 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 2: I hope they trade back and add capitol and get 1751 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:27,479 Speaker 2: the best wide receiver in the second round. That might 1752 01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:30,920 Speaker 2: be might be able to do that because you have 1753 01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 2: Samuel now and maybe you feel that affords you the 1754 01:29:33,439 --> 01:29:36,280 Speaker 2: opportunity to wait on it a little bit. And look, 1755 01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:38,040 Speaker 2: if seven go in front of them at twenty eight, 1756 01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 2: the value is not gonna be their receiver at twenty 1757 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:40,800 Speaker 2: eight anyway. 1758 01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,639 Speaker 3: Somebody else you probably moved. If there's seven guys gone, 1759 01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 3: forget it, You're gonna get somebody else. 1760 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:45,439 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1761 01:29:45,760 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 2: Thanks for all the birthday wishes.
