1 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,400 Speaker 1: At least, he's the drive with Dale Lolly and Matt 2 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: Williamson on your twenty four to seven home of the 3 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:18,439 Speaker 1: Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio. 4 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 2: And we are back. I'm Dale Lolly, he is the 5 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 2: Matt Williamson. It's the start of hour number two here 6 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 2: and I'm Matt today. Pro Football Focus came out with 7 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 2: their rankings for super Flex League. 8 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 3: Oh okay, interesting, I did so. 9 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 2: And for those who don't know what a super flex 10 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 2: fantasy league is, you can start two quarterbacks. 11 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, you get the flexbot. 12 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 2: You don't have to start two quarterbacks, which you're crazy 13 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: not to, you know what I mean, even the worst 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: quarterback that the thirty second starter in the league, yes, 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 2: is probably still a better start in your flex spot 16 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: then unless you're just completely stacked right. 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 3: And there's certainly that super flex are better than two 18 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 3: quarterback league because sometimes you can't start that second one injuries. 19 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 2: You know, you get a little bit. 20 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 3: So okay, I'm just gonna start running back this week, 21 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 3: but really, eight or nine out of ten weeks you're 22 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: starting a two quarterbacks in those leagues. So there's one 23 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 3: spot in another flex that can be quarterback relevant. So like, 24 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 3: for example, I mean some of these dynasty leagues. I'm 25 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 3: in a pretty big rosters, but like I owned Derek 26 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 3: Carr and in my super Flex league, I didn't cut them. Yeah, 27 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: I mean, like, yeah, he's he was untradable for a while. 28 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 3: But I mean I have Tyrod Taylor in that league. 29 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 3: I have Kenny Pickett in that league. I mean, like 30 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 3: I have seven or eight quarterbacks just Joe Flacco's on 31 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 3: the waiver wire. I put in a big, big number 32 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 3: in them because I might need to start them one week, 33 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 3: you know. 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 2: So they're number one overall guy in the super Flex 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: going into the season. 36 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: Jade and Daniels, huh, I mean we've done We've talked 37 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: through quarterback ranks. They don't change. I mean it's kind. 38 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: Of like a vort vertical verse horizontal. Yeah, I don't 39 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: understand that. Wouldn't this being a super Flex would not 40 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: put Jayden and Daniels ahead of Josh Allen for me either, Lamar. 41 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 3: Jackson, I mean it's he still probably is my third quarterback. Yeah, 42 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 3: just a little uncertainty in year two and you know, 43 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 3: we'll see. 44 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: He hasn't done it as long as the other two guys, right, 45 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: I think Allen's just a monster. Allen's number two, Lamar's 46 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 2: number three, four as Jalen Hurts. Five is Joe Burrow. 47 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: It's always interesting when the line of demarcation starts of 48 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: when do I take Saquon or Chase. 49 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: Or that's after five? 50 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 3: Where would you be on that? I mean, I don't have. 51 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 2: A long wait till we get down to QB seven, 52 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: and I don't know that it should be. 53 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 3: See, I don't have a ton of super Flex experience. 54 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 3: I only have that one Dynasty League. But I do know, 55 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 3: especially in Dynasty. I mean I traded Justin Herbert and 56 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 3: got a ton for him, and he's not even that 57 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 3: good a fantasy quarterback. You know he's gonna be a 58 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 3: ten year starter. I got multiple first round picks Garrett Wilson, 59 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 3: I got all kinds of stuff for him, And if 60 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 3: you see like a startup, the first two rounds are 61 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 3: just littered with starting quarterbacks. I mean, the Mahomess of 62 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 3: the world are super high picks. But in redraft, I 63 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 3: don't know that I'm gonna go that crazy. I mean, 64 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,839 Speaker 3: it's great when your first two picks can be quarterbacks 65 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: and you're done there, but you're pretty weak other spots. 66 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 2: That depends on how many teams in the league does 67 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: twelve is it sixteen? Is at fourteen? 68 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: Right? 69 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: But chases six Bejean Robinson seven, Jamior Gibbs eight, both 70 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: ahead of Barklay, both that of Barkley, Justin Jefferson nine, 71 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas ten. I'm gonna think Brian Thomas over Barkley. 72 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 2: Barkley eleven. Patrick Mahomes twelve. I think he's gonna have 73 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: a big year. Got a I don't know who what 74 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: receivers I want to his, but I think he's gonna 75 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: throw more than he has. That's your first round. 76 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: Okay, I'd be pretty happy. Mahomes at twelve. 77 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: Puka and the coup Is thirteen, Nico Collins fourteen. 78 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: We talked about this in the Receiver Show that I 79 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 3: think Puka is a little high. 80 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 2: Ceedee Lamb fifteen. I'm taking Lamb over the coup times 81 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: one thousand, Monross Aint Brown sixteen. 82 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 3: I wonder if they move Lamb down post pickings trade 83 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 3: maybe a little. 84 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: Maybe a little. 85 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 3: Yeah. 86 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: Like I said, these just came out today. Ashton genty 87 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: at seventeen, Malik Neighbors at eighteen. 88 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: None of that's too crazy to me. 89 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield at nineteen QB seven. 90 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 3: I think he was there QB seven when we talked 91 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 3: through this a week or so ago. 92 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 2: QB eight for them at twenty is bo Nicks. I 93 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 2: can't go there. 94 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a little rich. I mean he 95 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 3: does run a fair amount. They throw a lot of 96 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: easy completions to backs. Imight have a hard time. I'm 97 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 3: not sure if Baker will be my seven. Either he 98 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 3: throws touchdown. 99 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 2: There's touchdowns, and he does run. Twenty one is Bucky 100 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: Irving RB five, Okay, twenty two is brock Party is 101 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 2: QB nine. 102 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 3: That's the neighborhood of quarterbacks. I don't love, you know, 103 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 3: for super flex or whatever. 104 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 2: Twenty three is Kyler Murray. 105 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 3: I mean this is just a different for people who 106 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 3: haven't played super flex. Hypothetical. You get the seventh pick 107 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 3: in a twelve team league draft, you take Barkley or 108 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: Chase at seven. Now you're taking brock Party. Yeah, you 109 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 3: know what I mean? Like that's you almost have to right, Yeah, 110 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 3: I mean you're in trouble. 111 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: Twenty four is brock Bowers tight end one. Twenty five 112 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 2: is justin fields at QB eleven. 113 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 3: Like I'm taking fields over party. Yeah. 114 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: Twenty six is Justin Herbert at QB twelve. 115 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 3: Not bad. 116 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 2: Twenty seven is Caleb Williams at QB thirteen. 117 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 3: That neighborhood's a little rough too. 118 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 2: Twenty eight Christian McCaffrey. I'd probably buy him before that. 119 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: Twenty nine is Jordan. 120 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 3: Love Saw that doesn't run as much you think. 121 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: That's QB fourteen. That's fourteen to the top. Twenty nine 122 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: picks quarterbacks. 123 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 3: Because you don't well, the cam Wards and those guys 124 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 3: are valuable too, as long as you know they're gonna 125 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: start every week. You know that what you don't want 126 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 3: is it Schucker rattler, you know. 127 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 2: Like you don't want to what you don't want to be. 128 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 2: Let's just say you're in a twelve team league. There's 129 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 2: thirty two starters, right, That's why I six some of 130 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 2: them are gonna You're gonna have buy weeks, yeah, and 131 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: definitely gonna be injuries. There's gonna be some teams that 132 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: don't have three starting quarterbacks. 133 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 3: Right. Oh, they're absolutely well, but I mean we know that. Yeah, 134 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 3: and handcuffing is important, right. It sounds like a stupid example, 135 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: but like I have Tyrod Taylor in that big league, 136 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 3: and I've been trying to sell him to the Justin 137 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 3: field z owner for something, you know, just give me 138 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 3: a third round pick or whatever. He doesn't his other 139 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 3: quarterbacks happen to be really good, so he doesn't care 140 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: if Fields gets hurt that badly. But you know, like that, 141 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 3: if you have fields, Tyrod Taylor's. 142 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 2: Valuable thirty is Trey McBride, right then two? Yeah, thirty 143 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,239 Speaker 2: one is Drake London wide receiver nine. 144 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 3: Wow. There's so many receivers that they will get pushed out. 145 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 2: If I went quarterback quarterback and then I Drake London was. 146 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 3: My top receiver position player. 147 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: I'm okay with that. 148 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 3: I say that's not bad. I mean that's I Him 149 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 3: being receiver nine sounds rich. But him at thirty whatever 150 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 3: seems like a value. 151 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: Thirty one is value absolute. He's way better at his 152 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: job than brought party. Yeah, you know for fantasy. Uh. 153 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 2: Thirty two is a J Brown wide receiver ten. 154 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 3: Again, this is where you start getting values at the 155 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 3: positions that have depth. 156 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 2: Thirty three is Devin a Chan that's RB seven. Wow. 157 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 2: I mean that's a home run there. Yeah, I'm not 158 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: I'm never in on taking Devin a Chan at twelve 159 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: or in the first round. If I can take him 160 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: at thirty three. 161 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definite. I already have a quarterback and something 162 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 3: else with two quarterbacks, and right especially if it's. 163 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 2: PPR thirty or is Jared Goff that's QB fifteen, that's 164 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: a real solid quarterback too. Yeah, we can start every week. 165 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: Thirty five is Derrick Henry RB eight. 166 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 3: That's pretty nice. 167 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: Thirty six is Josh Jacobs as RB nine. 168 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 3: I mean you're getting those guys the end of the 169 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 3: third round. Yeah, and they could be RB one. 170 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 2: Thirty seven is Drake May at QB sixteen. 171 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: Should be zero chance to get benched, you know. 172 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 2: Thirty eight Lad McConkey. Thirty nine is T Higgins Wide 173 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: receiver twelve. I have less of a problem taking T 174 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: Higgins at thirty nine sure than I did when we 175 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 2: did the rankings last week and he was watching.

Cam Ward neighborhood. 308 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: Probably next quarterback is at one oh four. Quarterback twenty 309 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: two is Matthew Stafford. 310 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 3: Okay, like I would think Rogers will be in that neighborhood. Wilson. 311 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Pennix is at one o seven, cam Ward is 312 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 2: at one oh nine. 313 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 3: I wouldn't is that crazy to have one of those 314 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 3: as your QB two and super flex if you can 315 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: wait that late or maybe take two of them. 316 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: Me, I'd rather they'd be my third quarterback. Oh absolutely, 317 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 2: I mean, especially after I've filled the roster out in 318 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: those middle. 319 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 3: Rounds, right, I mean, that's why I think they're going there. 320 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 3: But if it's a twelve team league, someone doesn't have 321 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 3: QB two yet, Like if you went I'm just thinking 322 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: of how I want a team build. If I take 323 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 3: not one of the top five, but I end up 324 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 3: with Mahomes, it's the middle of the second round and 325 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 3: then McCarthy and Rogers, you know, something like that. You'd 326 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 3: be stacked everywhere else at that point, right, you know, 327 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 3: But that's a little I mean, it's that's the world 328 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 3: you live in. 329 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson is QB twenty five. Yeah, Caleb Johnson. 330 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 3: I gived Richardson and Jones and I just stream them 331 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 3: week to week. 332 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I never know which game Richard is going 333 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 2: to tap out on me. Caleb Johnson comes in at 334 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: one fourteen is RB thirty seven, by the way, So okay, uh, 335 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: Tyler Shuck even comes in here. Oh yeah, you're twenty nine. 336 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 3: You're drafting Rattler, You're drafting Shuck. You might draft Rudolph. 337 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson's QB thirty Aaron Rodgers QB thirty one at 338 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 2: one twenty six. 339 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 3: Now those guys all get drafted. 340 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett is QB thirty two. 341 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely. 342 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 2: Interesting, just a different way to look at things. 343 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 3: It's where where to take them? I mean, obviously the 344 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 3: quarterback rank shouldn't change. 345 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 2: I mean, if you have a top I would have 346 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 2: a top. A tough decision if I were picking six 347 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 2: in this particular draft, because the five good ones Daniels, Allen, Jackson, 348 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 2: Hurts and Burrow went ahead of me. Do you take 349 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 2: Mahomes or you take Chase or yeah, Barkley or. 350 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 3: Are you definitely taking Burrow or Hurts over first position players? 351 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 3: Kind of a bird in the hand. 352 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 2: My only problem with taking Burrow in that top five 353 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 2: his injury history is real. Oh yeah, Like and we 354 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 2: just went through the offensive line rankings in the previous 355 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: holtur they're not good, right right, right, that's not a strength. 356 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 2: Whereas I know, like Mahomes is gonna he's gonna play 357 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: through whatever, right right, Alan, Yeah, those guys are gonna play. 358 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: Yeah Yeah, Burrow's had some stuff. 359 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 360 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: And if if that's your top five pick and he 361 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 2: gets he has another one of those seasons you're shot, 362 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 2: ye done. 363 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 3: If you're sitting there five, would you prefer Burrow or Chase? 364 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 3: I mean I bring it up because they're the same team, right, 365 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 3: and if Burrow gets hurt, it hurts Chase too. 366 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, yeah, Ice, it is dicey. 367 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 3: It's it's hard to weigh that stuff. Like I said, 368 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 3: I mean, I just made a super flex trade because 369 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 3: my rookie pick cam Ward. I was picking fifth, and 370 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: cam Ward lasted all the way to five, which he shouldn't, right, 371 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 3: I mean, he should go ahead of I think Judkins 372 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: went ahead of them. And that's when I was like, whoa, 373 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 3: you know, so I'm just gonna take him. So I 374 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 3: shopped Herbert and got a ton for him. But I 375 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 3: also thought, I have car on this roster. Maybe he'll 376 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 3: be valuable. He's not all of a sudden, They're like, 377 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: now I'm a little light. 378 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 2: At quarterback, you know. So it's when in doubt take the. 379 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 3: Extra quarterback in super flex for sure, Like you want 380 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 3: four that might play three that are starters if you're optimal. 381 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 2: You know, and then like Daniel Jones or Winston, and 382 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 2: if if you have four or even five of them. 383 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 2: You can shop those guys an the goals and get somebody, 384 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 2: you know, somebody short if you have a lot. You know, 385 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 2: two teams are short. 386 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know. 387 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: Anyways, let's get to a break.

I'm Steelers guy, but that's not what we're 480 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 3: a national show. And boy do I hear about it 481 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 3: a lot. But the summer after their rookie year, we 482 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 3: would go back and forth, would you rather party? 483 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 2: Would you rather pick it? 484 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 3: I'd rather pick it then? You know, he was a 485 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 3: first round pick. I liked him a lot more coming 486 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 3: out now I hear about it all the time. I'd 487 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 3: rather party. Now I was wrong, don't get me wrong, 488 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: But I'm not still on that train. You know, more 489 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 3: information comes out, right, and after their rookie seasons, I said, 490 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 3: I'd still rather have a picket. Okay, I don't regret that. 491 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 2: At that point, I don't have a crystal ball party 492 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: had played like six games. 493 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 3: He played six games and they were good, and he 494 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 3: was mister irrelevant. Yea, that was the context at the time, 495 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 3: you know, the one the guy was the first round 496 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 3: pick that showed flashes in his rookie year but wasn't great. Yeah, 497 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 3: I'd take Dan Marino over both of them.

He's going to be the starter. Yeah, 516 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 2: right round draft someone at that age and that situation probably. 517 00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 3: Not to start. 518 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 2: Rattler was bad last year. 519 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I bet it'll be a camp camp competition. 520 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Number two on there is r. J. Harvey which Denver. 521 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 2: He has very little competition. Three is Jonas Ivania. 522 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: Again not much competition a guard they traded up for him. Yeah. 523 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 2: Thirty seventh pick four is Quinnshaw Jenkins with the Browns. 524 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 3: He'll be their lead guy. Yeah, I mean early round 525 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 3: running backs are pretty easy cheat. 526 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 2: Cold on this Treveon Henderson is five. 527 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 3: Do you think he leads that team in rushing? No? 528 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 3: I don't either, and I think he'll be like useful 529 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 3: and making it. 530 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 2: He'll lead their running backs in receptions, I think. 531 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 3: The most yardage from scrimmage. But I bet Stevenson still 532 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 3: has at. 533 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 2: Steve going away. They just gave money, right right. Six 534 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 2: is Caleb Johnson? 535 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 3: Sure, sure, I mean I think he'll be one a. 536 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 2: There are two hundred and ninety nine touches that they 537 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 2: need to replace in that backfield, and that's if Cordero 538 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 2: Patterson isn't released. 539 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: Then it goes then it goes up right, and Gainwell 540 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 3: might just take those plus, you know, maybe Gainwell gets 541 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,400 Speaker 3: one hundred touches total most Maybe I'll take the under. 542 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 2: Right, But I think Johnson gets two hundred and fifty plus. 543 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I bet he catches more balls as a 544 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 3: Steeler than a Hawkeye too. 545 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 2: I think he was their leading receiver last year. 546 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 3: I thought only had likely had not that many catches, 547 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 3: but that they don't throw the ball. 548 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: They don't throw the ball right, they don't have any receivers. 549 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: Seven is Mason Taylor with a tight end with the Jets. 550 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: I would think he's a plug and play star. 551 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 552 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 2: Eight is Tate rat Leg's guard with the Lions. The 553 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: offensive line rankings, he was one of their starters. I 554 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 2: hope there's a linement on here otherwise, Yeah, okay. Nine 555 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 2: is Jayden Higgins with the Texans. Yeah, but he's got 556 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 2: a competition he does. I mean, is he gonna beat 557 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 2: dot Kirk and Nol. 558 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 3: Maybe they're gonna play with three receivers a lot, but 559 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: for good ones. 560 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: Ten is Dylan Fairchild with the Bengals. 561 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 3: We've talked about their line was last. There's not much 562 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:07,360 Speaker 3: in front of him. 563 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: Four more to watch Gunner Helm with the Titans. I 564 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 2: don't see that. 565 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 3: I'm not a fan of him to begin with. I 566 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 3: thought he was overdrafted. Jigg's definitely ahead of him. I 567 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 3: would think there's some blocking tight end that's going to 568 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 3: be in the mix more than Helm. 569 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,719 Speaker 2: Uh Jalen lane wide receiver with the Commanders. 570 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 3: Could be number three. It's probably battling McCaffrey. I know 571 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: Field's looking for long shots here, but you know, uh, 572 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 3: this is a long shot. Robbie Oots with the Seahawks, 573 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 3: a fullback. 574 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 2: Probably the only two back on the roster. And Berchard 575 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: Smith running back with the Chiefs, picked number two twenty eight. 576 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 3: I told you we were talking about AFC West today, 577 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 3: like he may end up being their best back. He 578 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: mightn't think he's great, but his seventh round pick, and 579 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 3: there's the guys ahead of him marked all that specially, 580 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 3: and he's just tiny. 581 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 2: He is little, right fast though defensive players. 582 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 3: This one's more interesting to me. It's easy just to 583 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 3: pick running backs around too well. 584 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: The first one is the first overall pick of the 585 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 2: second round, Carson sweesssinger, low hanging fruit the field, right field. 586 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 2: Two is Nick Amywari safety with the Seahawks. He's the 587 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: thirty first pick. 588 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he's gonna play. 589 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: Three is Will Johnson with the Parties. 590 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 591 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 2: Four. Demetrious Night with the Bengals. 592 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 3: Yes, but I don't think that's necessarily a good thing. 593 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 3: That's part of the reason why I didn't love their 594 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 3: draft is I thought he was a fourth round player 595 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 3: that they took. 596 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 2: The same as like my fifth best inside linebacker, fourth two, right, 597 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: they were all bad After that, I thought he was 598 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 2: vastly overdrafted. Five is Nick Martin with the forty nine Ers, 599 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 2: another linebacker. 600 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, boy, I thought linebackers were really overdrafted. 601 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 2: Six j T. Twomloa with the Colts. 602 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it'll be in a rotation. 603 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 2: Seven Omar Norman Lott defensive tackle with the Chiefs. 604 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 3: Yes, but really a spot player. Yeah, you know, yes, 605 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 3: if they're winning and it's loud and arrowhead and he 606 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 3: comes in to close out games, right next to Chris Jones. 607 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: Cool. Eight is Nick Scourton with Ed Dress with Panthers. 608 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: Not much competition, but they also did draft Prince Hugh. 609 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 3: I would think Scourton's more of the early down guy 610 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 3: and Prince is more of the laid down guy. 611 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. Nine Andrew mccooba with safety with the Eagles. 612 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 3: Could be Gardner. Johnson's gone, so there's a path. 613 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: Ten Jacob Parrish cornerback with the Tame Buccaneers. 614 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 3: Interesting he doesn't mention Benjamin who was drafted ahead of them, 615 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 3: because then you draft Parish is slot outside capable, you know, 616 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 3: an umbrella in case Ben Morrison isn't ready. 617 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 2: Three more to watch. Baron Sorrel edge rusher with the 618 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 2: Packers one hundred and twenty fourth pick. 619 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that path is great. 620 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 2: Tyryan Ingram Dawkins defensive lineman with the Vikings. 621 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 3: Maybe part of the rotation anything. 622 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's those other guys are a little older they signed. 623 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 2: And then Jordan Phillips defensive tackle with the Dolphins. 624 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, but they drafted Grant's strictly a run stuff early 625 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 3: down next to Grant to get. 626 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 2: Big what kind of impact he's gonna make? 627 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 3: Impacts a big word. Yeah, Any Steeler defensive rookies come 628 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 3: out to mind. 629 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: For Jack Sawyer, and for Jack Sawyer to make an 630 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 2: impact means that's something bad. 631 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 3: Happened, right. 632 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I'd be disappointed if Harmon didn't make an impact. 633 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: But this was guys outside outside the first round. 634 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 3: I forgot with that. Yeah, then no, I don't think 635 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 3: there's somebody that's Yeah, I think black will see the field. 636 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 2: Some make an impact. Is if you're making Jordan Phillips 637 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: like impact yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, stopping a run, 638 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 2: third guy on early downs type of dude. Cool, Yeah, 639 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: but just an interesting little look care at that by 640 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 2: field Yates and that's a tougher. Like everybody thinks their 641 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 2: first round, we're going to make an impact. 642 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 3: Sure, and fifteen of them do. Yeah, you know, five 643 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 3: get hurt. Some guys are swimming, somebody gets you in 644 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 3: a bad system or whatever. 645 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 2: You know.

Oh, by the way, it's 662 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 3: the team that just won the Super Bowl and they're 663 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 3: really good in their building.

We're going 669 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,239 Speaker 2: to get eyeballs on it. 670 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 3: But I'm looking forward to it.

Right now, 672 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 3: let's go, you know, right, but long way away. But 673 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 3: it is schedule release week. 674 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: It is scheduled release week. Tomorrow when we show up 675 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 2: for this show, the league wolf announced all the international game. 676 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 3: That's pretty cool, pretty cool, right, And obviously the Steelers 677 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: are very relevant in that. 678 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 2: Man, Yes, we will know who the Steelers' opponent and 679 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 2: date time, all that all that stuff for the game 680 00:33:59,080 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 2: in Ireland. 681 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 3: What what kickoff time do you expect Eastern Well, they 682 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,240 Speaker 3: they would be like a nine to thirty game. 683 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 2: They're five hours ahead of US. I believe five hours 684 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 2: ahead of US. I don't know that. 685 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 3: That's why I was trying to figure it out. So 686 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,439 Speaker 3: there that would be, you know, that would make some sense. 687 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 3: They're usually earlier than one us a standalone game. 688 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 2: Well, if it started, if it starts, I would assume 689 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 2: nine o'clock Sunday morning. Yeah, yeah, which would be basically 690 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: two o'clock in the afternoon there. 691 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 3: Okay, so that's usually about when the International games. 692 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,239 Speaker 2: Which is why you don't necessarily need to have the 693 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 2: open by date after that game. 694 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is a nice perk. Good point. You get 695 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 3: out of the way Eastern time. Just live on an 696 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 3: Eastern time clock the whole time. Yeah, it's early, but 697 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 3: you've been there for a while and you get out 698 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:48,959 Speaker 3: of there. 699 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 2: Quick, and you're flying back and it's no different to 700 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 2: going to the West coast. 701 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 3: I mean, they'll fly back right after the game, just 702 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 3: like if they played Seattle or whatever. Right, so you're 703 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 3: done by noon Eastern. You're home by five or six 704 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 3: Eastern SAT. Sunday day. Okay. 705 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 2: Interesting, Yeah, so well know that this time tomorrow, right, 706 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 2: what's Tyler sending me here at eight thirty two pm? Yeah, 707 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:15,959 Speaker 2: five hours that's what I said. 708 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, you're sending me this like. 709 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 2: I was wrong about this and I'm like, no, it's 710 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 2: five hours. It's five hours, and it's not the same 711 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 2: as going to London, for example, by the you're a 712 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: little closer, Oh got a great deal close they're in 713 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 2: the same time. But you probably say, I don't know 714 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 2: what the flight to Ireland from Dublin to London's about 715 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 2: an hour, but I'll bet it's at least forty five minutes, 716 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 2: half hour, forty five minutes all in the Germany games, 717 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,760 Speaker 2: or like if you were driving, if you were driving, 718 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 2: what that we We're gonna have Michael McQuaid on tomorrow, 719 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 2: who's part of NFL Ireland. I might ask him that 720 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 2: if you were able to drive a car from Doubleland 721 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 2: to London, Yeah, how long would that take? Gotcha? I 722 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 2: wonder if it's like driving to Philly driving it's not 723 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: an hour, it's like an hour flight. But that would 724 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 2: that be like driving to Philly? Or would that be 725 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 2: like driving to Indie? 726 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 3: I have no clue. 727 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: They're not technically as the crow flies or the swallow flies. 728 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 2: As the swallow flies, it's not that far, no, but 729 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 2: actual drive time would be rough. Yeah, Like if you 730 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 2: if you take a flight from Pittsburgh to Philly, you're up, 731 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 2: you're down. It's still half hour ish. 732 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 3: I've mentioned this on the air before, but we joke 733 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 3: about it on that my other podcast because he's a 734 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 3: Cali guy and I'm a Pennsylvania guy.

You can like walk there that. 740 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 2: We were in Denver one year for a Steeler game 741 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 2: and me and a couple of the guys went out 742 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 2: for adult heal beverage at night and the place we 743 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 2: were going to was carting everybody, and the guy looked 744 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 2: at our our driver's licenses and said, oh, you guys 745 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 2: are from Pennsylvania.

Kevin Jones is running back the Lions drafts 753 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,359 Speaker 2: in Virginia Tech. I was reading something one day. It 754 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 2: was it was online, and I knew that I knew 755 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 2: the author, and he wrote that the Steelers would be 756 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: interested in drafting Kevin the local product, Kevin Jones. And 757 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,879 Speaker 2: I'm like, he's from Chester. I remember he came out 758 00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 2: outside of Philadelphia. And I emailed him and I'm like, hey, dude, 759 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: Chester is nowhere near Pittsburgh. 760 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 3: He was a lot closer Virginia tach than he was. 761 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 2: He's closer to Baltimore. He's closer to DC than he is. 762 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 2: Oh well, Tyler's now now you're getting the information I 763 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 2: can use. 764 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 3: Okay, look at Tyler. 765 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 2: So if you were able to if you were able 766 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: to drive. 767 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 3: With the ferry, including the ferry, yeah right, it's which 768 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 3: is a direct shot eight hours eight hour ride. Wow, okay, and. 769 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: The ferry doesn't move necessarily real fast. But there's a 770 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 2: reason why they went back and forth. But they also 771 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: don't have to go round mountains and stuff. 772 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 3: They can go. 773 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 2: Straight shot across through the crow. 774 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 3: Then. 775 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't even know what the what's that sea 776 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 2: calls that the Irish Sea. I'm not sure no, this 777 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 2: is more of your ally. Well, that's taking the ferry 778 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: Way north too. Well, now, I guess you're that's pretty direct. 779 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 2: Eight hours, so okay, that's so bad. But you're right. 780 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 2: But by planet it takes an hour and twenty minutes. 781 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 3: So your original point is flying home from Locker. It's 782 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 3: different than flying home from double Yeah, look quicker, right, right, 783 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 3: It's like flying home from Phillips if you were on 784 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 3: their end. If Mike tomorrow came from Pittsburgh, it's a 785 00:38:58,680 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 3: lot farther than going to Philly. 786 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, you go. Okay, So we will have talked to him. 787 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 2: He's a good time. Yeah, we'll have him on tomorrow 788 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 2: to talk about the game. Now that he'll actually know, 789 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: we'll know. I'm sure so many people are on the 790 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 2: edge of their seats of travel. Huge deal over there too, 791 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:14,760 Speaker 2: Like all they want to know. 792 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 3: I'm talking about the Pittsburgh is going over. Yeah, I 793 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 3: want to know. I've been as you have been for months. 794 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 3: What are we gonna know? What are we gonna know? 795 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 3: I gotta make plans. But cool, we'll see. 796 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:27,280 Speaker 2: It might be could be Green Bay, could be Minnesota, 797 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 2: Vikings over a chance to right, could be I think 798 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 2: the Jets were No, maybe not. I can't remember who 799 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 2: the other one wants now, but I think it's ponsibility. 800 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 2: I think it's one of those two and it'll be interesting. 801 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 2: And last time the Steelers did play overseas was in London. 802 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 2: They played Minnesota. Nice, So if it happens to be 803 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 2: Minnesota again, well known trivia thing for you. The Vikings 804 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 2: actually founded Dublin, not the Minnesota but not the Minnesota 805 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 2: version of the Vikings, the Norway version of. 806 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 3: The Vikings, right right. 807 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 2: They were busy crew. They were everywhere. 808 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 3: They traveled well, they traveled well. You didn't like seeing 809 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 3: the Viking boat. 810 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 2: They brought a good crop with them, right, it's going 811 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 2: to go their way too. They were not always they 812 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 2: weren't as fearsome as like. 813 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 3: They lost. 814 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 2: They lost some battles. 815 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 3: Now that they had a lot of first round picks 816 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,279 Speaker 3: on that team, and they were good at what they did. 817 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 2: They were pretty pinpoint with what they were attacking. They 818 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 2: had a lot of attacking of monasteries and things of 819 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 2: that nature. 820 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 3: So maybe better strategy, better coaching than giving They had 821 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 3: good coaching, yeah, less talent than given credit. 822 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,799 Speaker 2: The monasteries had, because of course they weren't Christians. They 823 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 2: didn't care. Oh no, right, so they had no problem 824 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,480 Speaker 2: raiding a monastery which had a lot of gold chalices 825 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 2: and things that crosses and taking that the monks weren't 826 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 2: going to fight you for. Well, yeah, right, and then 827 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 2: there you go. Good coaching, Good coaching, I like it. Yeah, 828 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 2: in that case, it was also it was the Jimmies 829 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 2: and Joe's, but it was also the x's and o's. 830 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 3: But the x's and o's don't get enough credit. Yeah, 831 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 3: Jimmies and Joe's get a lot of credit there, but 832 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 3: maybe they're not quite as strong. 833 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 2: As the sevens and Odin's fours. 834 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:03,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. 835 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 2: Anyways, that's gonna do it for today's show. 836 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 3: Going out with the bang with the bank. We'll come 837 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 3: in with some europe talk as well. 838 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 2: We will, We'll have lots of talk about tomorrow. We'll 839 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: have all the international game schedule that's going to be 840 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 2: interesting as well, not just the Steelers and who they is, 841 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 2: but there's other international games and this is only continuing 842 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 2: to ramp up. It will be long stuff before teams 843 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: are will have to go internationally every year. 844 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 3: You think that every team will go internationally at least 845 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 3: once a year at some point. 846 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 2: I think that's part of the you know, seventeen to 847 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 2: eighteen game schedule. Yeah, yeah, so you think there'll be 848 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,239 Speaker 2: at least sixteen games per year. I think ideally that's 849 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 2: what the league is pushed, is moving. 850 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 3: Everyone will get one, yeah, or Jackson will get two. 851 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 3: You know they had two before? 852 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? 853 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 3: Cool, Well a lot tomorrow. 854 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: We certainly will no more than we did today.
