Speaker 1: of the NFL Draft from the s TOWBC Mortgage Studios.
Speaker 1: I'm Brian brought us along with my trusted scouts from
Speaker 1: the Draft Show, David Hellman and Dane Brugler from CBS
Speaker 1: Sports King Mock Draft as they like to call the man.
Speaker 1: Congratulations by the way, on that good first day, it
Speaker 1: wasn't keep his going. Absolutely, let's keep it going and
Speaker 1: towas Yeah, to join the party is a man who
Speaker 1: has I have a new face. Well, he's no stranger,
Speaker 1: No strangers the Draft Show and everybody understands and those
Speaker 1: the great Jeff Kavanaugh from one oh five three The Fan, Ah,
Speaker 1: it's still honor a privilege and sound effects sounded great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought about you earlier, Jeffrey, because I took the
Speaker 1: Jerrymobile to the airport to get Byron Jones. And the
Speaker 1: last time I was on the Jerrymobile was with you.
Speaker 1: Did I make that awkward for you? I remember that. No,
Speaker 1: it was great. We had some beer with Jerry and
Speaker 1: those zero degree weather in Indianapolis time the boss offers
Speaker 1: you cole beer. You have a beer. Everybody everybody else
Speaker 1: was ready to get up and go. If a billionaire
Speaker 1: offers you a beer, you take a beer. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: took it. What are you gonna do? Yeah? I was
Speaker 1: gonna ask for another one, Yolo. Well you had to
Speaker 1: come back in and scout. Yeah. Yeah. We had a
Speaker 1: lot going on that day. So uh, just a little
Speaker 1: background with Jeff Kavanaugh. He and Kevin Turner who will
Speaker 1: be on a little bit later on as Dave and
Speaker 1: Dane have to go do other things for the draft.
Speaker 1: This is one of my scouting partners as well. This
Speaker 1: man is on the show, as I told you, one
Speaker 1: O five three from ten to three every day just
Speaker 1: and he loves the NFL Draft. This is the second
Speaker 1: season he's been with us and with me every night
Speaker 1: that we could watch tape. This man's scene over two
Speaker 1: hundred players. He knows this draft backwards and forward. He
Speaker 1: will bring the same type of knowledge that Dane and
Speaker 1: David all of us have. Uh, it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: spirited conversation tonight. We'll get into a lot of different areas.
Speaker 1: Like last night, we talked about various teams where they
Speaker 1: could fall with picks, you know, trying to get a
Speaker 1: little bit of idea where they might fit and where
Speaker 1: if they fit in relation to the Cowboys as well.
Speaker 1: And last night we saw guys Jerry Jones and the
Speaker 1: group sweated a pick and they they were initially we
Speaker 1: had done some mocks. We talked about cornerbacks Dane, and
Speaker 1: you know, they end up getting Byron Jones after you know,
Speaker 1: maybe feeling like that they had to go up and
Speaker 1: and uh and do that. But by just sitting right there,
Speaker 1: they were able to nab the player they want him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And we saw the on the war room cam how
Speaker 1: excited they were when that uh twenty six pick came
Speaker 1: in the Ravens and it was not Byron Jones and
Speaker 1: so that they knew they got their guy. And so
Speaker 1: we talked about all the different scenarios about maybe trading up.
Speaker 1: Is that what you have to do, and that's what
Speaker 1: we did in our scenario in our seven round mock
Speaker 1: Cowboys decided to wait hey, and it worked out perfectly. So,
Speaker 1: you know, great job by by those guys not to
Speaker 1: get spooked and trade up, give up draft picks, stayed put,
Speaker 1: got their guy Byron Jones. I love the fit here
Speaker 1: in Dallas. I love the what he does for the
Speaker 1: cornerback depth. And so you have to ride that momentum
Speaker 1: now in the day two and with sixty, obviously we're
Speaker 1: gonna wait a while before they pick. Are they gonna
Speaker 1: get that itchy trigger finger again or in you know,
Speaker 1: like they didn't do yesterday, or you know, are they
Speaker 1: gonna stay at sixty wait for their guy. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be interesting. Yeah, And Jeff, you you're a guy that
Speaker 1: has us no secret listening to you on one oh
Speaker 1: five three and just all the interaction I've had with you.
Speaker 1: Big fan of there's running backs myself, aren't we all? Yeah?
Speaker 1: A big fan of the running backs. Tevin Coleman still
Speaker 1: on the board. One of my personal favorites. Duke Johnson
Speaker 1: is a guy that you've championed from the word go.
Speaker 1: And so if the Cowboys are looking at a running back,
Speaker 1: do you feel like it though, that they can wait
Speaker 1: till sixty, or do you feel like that they're going
Speaker 1: to have to make a small move to maybe go
Speaker 1: up and get a guy, like if Duke Johnson was
Speaker 1: available your personal favorite. I think I heard I think
Speaker 1: it was Steven today and he was talking about how
Speaker 1: they really sweated it out last night and they had
Speaker 1: to really sit there and they're like, Okay, we're getting close.
Speaker 1: Do we need to move? How are we gonna do this?
Speaker 1: And they sweated it out and they ended up with
Speaker 1: their guy, and he said that today they feel like
Speaker 1: it might be a little more relaxed, sorry, and like
Speaker 1: there may be you know, we're just gonna sit there
Speaker 1: and wait and maybe we'll have two or three guys
Speaker 1: to choose for them in the second and the third round.
Speaker 1: And I think that there's enough guys left, maybe five
Speaker 1: or six different guys that I would really like to
Speaker 1: pick at sixty that are on the board right now.
Speaker 1: And if they don't start falling off, or if they
Speaker 1: start falling off, you know, you just watch your pool
Speaker 1: of guys start to dwindle, and if it starts getting
Speaker 1: to the danger zone, then I would think about it.
Speaker 1: But for now. I mean as long as you're sitting
Speaker 1: there with what Duke and Coleman and a Jay and
Speaker 1: Yelden and then linebackers that you really like, Yes, like
Speaker 1: it's sixty for now. I think you feel really good
Speaker 1: and you can just sort of let this happen and
Speaker 1: see what's going to fall into your lap. If all
Speaker 1: of your guys start bam bam bam, there they go,
Speaker 1: then I might start thinking about it. But I think
Speaker 1: you go into this just kind of like, yeah, let's
Speaker 1: just see, let's just see what comes to us. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and Dave, I've kind of listed you as my numbers man,
Speaker 1: my trade guy, and you know, we had only a
Speaker 1: couple of trades yesterday, Yeah, and small trade rising Dane
Speaker 1: was talking about. Yeah, they were whimpy baby trades. They
Speaker 1: were like two spots, three spots. But I think crazy.
Speaker 1: But you feel like though that maybe you know going
Speaker 1: into this that we might see a little bit more.
Speaker 1: I think Jerry Jones was talking about more third round.
Speaker 1: He's hoping for some craziness. But I think we'll definitely,
Speaker 1: I think we'll see some stuff tonight. I don't know
Speaker 1: if i'll see it from the Cowboys. I'm very interesting.
Speaker 1: We talked about this on our show this morning, our
Speaker 1: first Round wrap up show, is that, you know, the
Speaker 1: lateness of these Cowboys picks is you're kind of unless
Speaker 1: you're especially now that you're you know, your big pick,
Speaker 1: your first round pick has gone, you're valuable, your most
Speaker 1: valuable pick, you know, kind of tied in terms of
Speaker 1: what you can do with picks from this year's I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, if you're trying to trade into the thirties,
Speaker 1: I just don't know if I see it. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: think that earlier today trying to get up to Oakland,
Speaker 1: and you know, because we were trying to stay ahead
Speaker 1: and again I was looking at running back, you know,
Speaker 1: and they could go defensive end. We'll get into about
Speaker 1: some of the names that are left on this board,
Speaker 1: but if you were to go up and you know,
Speaker 1: maybe try and get a running back, yeah, it get
Speaker 1: ahead of Jacksonville and Jacksonville being at thirty six. That
Speaker 1: seems to trust to Nard Robinson. I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think And again we'll get
Speaker 1: into this stuff. Jeff actually took the words right out
Speaker 1: of my mouth. Is that, you know, if you try
Speaker 1: to read between the lines of what the Joneses were
Speaker 1: saying last night and today. Uh, you know, why don't
Speaker 1: they feel like they're gonna have to sweat tonight? It
Speaker 1: makes you think they've got names. They've got a name,
Speaker 1: They've got guys that they like that they feel confident
Speaker 1: that they feel differently about, you know, And Duke Johnson
Speaker 1: springs to mind immediately because he's an undersize running back
Speaker 1: that you know a lot of people think to see
Speaker 1: him as a possibility in the third round. So you know,
Speaker 1: if that's your guy and you you feel COMI taking
Speaker 1: him at sixty, you probably feel pretty good that nobody
Speaker 1: else is really thinking along those lines. Yeah, And you
Speaker 1: know that's the again, they they have some confidence, You're right,
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones, Jerry Jones, Jason Garrett. They've they've set their board,
Speaker 1: and so they have an idea of already where they
Speaker 1: might want to go, in what direction they might want
Speaker 1: to go when we you're seeing us all right now,
Speaker 1: the way this is going to work tonight, there's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with the world. There's nothing wrong with the word. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we we will go immediately him where we're talking here
Speaker 1: our command position here at Valley Ranch at the SWBC
Speaker 1: Morgan Studios. We will once that they show the war
Speaker 1: room cam available to us. Uh, we will will go
Speaker 1: immediately there. You'll get to see all the action. You'll
Speaker 1: get to see the interaction that the scouts, the coaches,
Speaker 1: and then also Jerry and Stephen Jones, will McClay all
Speaker 1: those folks. So yeah, we we we we we keep
Speaker 1: an eye on that. Hopefully tonight it doesn't take him
Speaker 1: an hour now, Yeah, take them exactly. There was there
Speaker 1: was a lot of discussion in that room that they
Speaker 1: didn't want us to see. So once that happens, they'll
Speaker 1: flip that that paper out of the way and then
Speaker 1: we'll go right in there. Kent Garrison is running the
Speaker 1: show tonight. He is uh keeping us all for him.
Speaker 1: And when the commissioner goes to well tonight, it won't
Speaker 1: be the Commissioner's commissioner doesn't do the second round. So whoever,
Speaker 1: Gene Washington, I think as you normally does it, the
Speaker 1: great Darren Woodson. Yeah, well they'll they'll happen, boys, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the second as soon as the representative goes to the
Speaker 1: podium to announce to pick, we'll get us online and
Speaker 1: we'll know exactly who is going to be selected there,
Speaker 1: Laurence Skill helping out tonight, and then Douglas as well.
Speaker 1: So everybody's on hand tonight to try and bring this
Speaker 1: coverage you. Let's get into some of the names, Dane
Speaker 1: and I want to start with you about some of
Speaker 1: these names, and we focus on the running backs, but
Speaker 1: let's focus on some of the other other options that
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and some of these other teams might have
Speaker 1: as we're going along here tonight here in the second round. Well,
Speaker 1: I think we start with Randy Gregory, a player we
Speaker 1: thought would be off the board yesterday in the first round.
Speaker 1: There myself a top ten talent, but we know about
Speaker 1: the off field issues, and at some point he becomes
Speaker 1: worth the risk where you're going to take him, and
Speaker 1: I would imagine that's somewhere in the early stages of
Speaker 1: round two. But again, who knows. You know, a lot
Speaker 1: of these teams could have Randy Gregory off the board.
Speaker 1: He could fall to sixty. Who knows. Royal Greenbeckham another
Speaker 1: character guy that we've talked about out not necessarily for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, but a guy that's immensely talented, who has
Speaker 1: his issues and you know he's gonna be off the
Speaker 1: board probably here in the early second round. So there's
Speaker 1: a lot of talent, and this is where you can
Speaker 1: find good value. Because we talked about it before, Guys
Speaker 1: you get maybe at pick fifteen in this draft, not
Speaker 1: so different than the guy you're gonna get a thirty five, right,
Speaker 1: So that talent level just really it really levels off,
Speaker 1: and so this second round we're gonna see a lot
Speaker 1: of talented players get drafted, which, again, to go back
Speaker 1: to what Stephen said, you know, the first twenty five
Speaker 1: to thirty guys probably for the most part, with a
Speaker 1: few exceptions, considered on a pretty similar level. But this
Speaker 1: is where you know, you start to see some varying
Speaker 1: opinions and big differences of opinion about where a guy
Speaker 1: should go. Yeah, and Jeff, you know, you've got your
Speaker 1: own board there that you put up on one oh
Speaker 1: five three, and I believe it's about one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty one players. Public saw it, public saw it exposed.
Speaker 1: There's a real problem. We try to keep it under wraps.
Speaker 1: It's out there. Okay, anybody on that board that you
Speaker 1: know that you would like to talk about again, I
Speaker 1: brought up Duke Johnson and guys like that, but anybody
Speaker 1: else you see could could be a good value for somebody.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I think that the linebackers are becoming pretty
Speaker 1: popular right about this point. Eric Kendricks, I thought could
Speaker 1: have gone yesterday and nobody would have been really surprised.
Speaker 1: The UCLA linebacker a guy but the Cowboys had visit.
Speaker 1: But Ardrick McKinney, I think that becomes a guy to watch.
Speaker 1: And my guy, Carl Davis at defensive tackle, I think
Speaker 1: is going to be a really good player for somebody,
Speaker 1: whether you wanted to play the one or the three.
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, at three hundred twenty pounds at Iowa.
Speaker 1: I thought his ability to just sort of move offensive
Speaker 1: lineman and get off blocks, and the way he could
Speaker 1: play the run and penetrate a little bit. That's one
Speaker 1: of the guys that I really like in this round.
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I think that I think we got
Speaker 1: a bunch of real good football players that are getting
Speaker 1: ready to go. Here, Dane, As you look at your
Speaker 1: board and some of the names better offensive players earlier
Speaker 1: or better defensive players, and maybe how it will fall
Speaker 1: towards the Cowboys, I'd probably lean defense. Um, you look
Speaker 1: at best available here, Randy Gregory h O, Diggy Zooa,
Speaker 1: Landon Collins, a safety, Eric Kendricks, Eric Rowe, Ronald Darby,
Speaker 1: so Eli Harold. There's a lot of good players here,
Speaker 1: and then I think there's a good chance we see
Speaker 1: these big guys mentioned Carl Davis, Eddie Goldman at some
Speaker 1: point here, Grady Jerry. I think we could see him
Speaker 1: go the second round. Uh, these big guys. You can
Speaker 1: find places for these big guys. I think they're gonna
Speaker 1: go quickly. Is Jordan Phillips two or three? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean he's talking about big guys. He's definitely his stuff's
Speaker 1: more medical and more can you trust him on the field,
Speaker 1: So we could definitely see him second round. I saw
Speaker 1: him get blocked, single blocked a lot, you know. I
Speaker 1: mean that, Yeah, that's there's well those guys that you
Speaker 1: see it, and I remember some of those games were
Speaker 1: watching where he's penetrating up the field tackle for loss
Speaker 1: a couple of times. You're like, okay, I get it,
Speaker 1: I see it. And then you go long stretches in
Speaker 1: the game where he's not doing anything and that that's
Speaker 1: problematic to me, and especially you get a big guy inside.
Speaker 1: You know, Carl Davis is a different cat when it
Speaker 1: comes to that movement and stuff like that. You know,
Speaker 1: at least you see the effort and the desire to
Speaker 1: get off blocks and to get down the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1: So you saw him mocked to the Cowboys as recently
Speaker 1: as like within the last two weeks. Well, another guy
Speaker 1: like which is what I mean at twenty seven right,
Speaker 1: which come come hither, come come here? Oh Diggeza was
Speaker 1: another one that everybody had is you know, but with
Speaker 1: still with you when you're talking about defensive ends that
Speaker 1: are still on the board, Gregory. You know, Clark is
Speaker 1: a guy Michigan. We've talked about him a ton, you know,
Speaker 1: and Clark who you know I'm talking about, Dave, don't Clark,
Speaker 1: don't act like you know who you're I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: Don't act like I don't know. Yeah, exactly like you
Speaker 1: write this guy love letters and I do spare time
Speaker 1: and look in the second round, I know last night
Speaker 1: was it isn't like my player. I don't even like Listen,
Speaker 1: his players got a rough patch back there somewhere, but
Speaker 1: his players go, it's not even about whether he's a
Speaker 1: good player, it's the character concerns. And then number two
Speaker 1: it's just that you won't shut up about the guy.
Speaker 1: But who did they draft yesterday? Great guy? Right guy?
Speaker 1: Great guy out? Captain America? If you captain American has
Speaker 1: to have somebody to battle again. What if you just
Speaker 1: draft two? What if you try to get like an
Speaker 1: Avengers going here like two good guys? Yeah, but anybody
Speaker 1: can lead a really nice people. You know, sound challenge
Speaker 1: my coaching stuff. I like to challenge my leaders. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's there's some knuckleheads back there, regardless of who you draft.
Speaker 1: I mean there's a handful of them already. Well, go ahead.
Speaker 1: Last night, we it was a little more predictable. We
Speaker 1: didn't have those big trades. It was at some people
Speaker 1: even called a boring. It wasn't boring, But I understand
Speaker 1: people saying it wasn't. It wasn't as exciting as I
Speaker 1: was hoping for it to be. And I mean a
Speaker 1: lot of that's the movement. We didn't see trade, we
Speaker 1: didn't see no, absolutely know, it wasn't that there wasn't
Speaker 1: too many shockers in the second round. I think we're
Speaker 1: going to see some shocking picks. I really do. I
Speaker 1: think we're going to see you see you think re picks.
Speaker 1: I mean, but you talked about sixteen. That's what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say is somebody's trash is another person's treasure, so
Speaker 1: to speak, cliche man, I mean whatever, you get my point.
Speaker 1: That's what garage sales are all about. Travis Frederick was
Speaker 1: seen as a third rounder by a lot of people. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you can't call it a reach, but people value
Speaker 1: players differently. Let me ask you this second round, a
Speaker 1: guy who I don't think we've said his name yet,
Speaker 1: Mario Edwards Junior. Is that too early for a team
Speaker 1: to take him? Because I think two years ago when
Speaker 1: we're watching takes man, we're watching the first round flashing
Speaker 1: back and we're watching fifteen for Florida State whip these guys. Yea.
Speaker 1: Then you watch the what should we say, larger version
Speaker 1: of him this year. Yeah, that doesn't move so good.
Speaker 1: That's not that's not that's doing him a disservice. He
Speaker 1: was bigger, big boy, and a little slower maybe, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he looks like what a fourth
Speaker 1: or fifth round pick. I love the part where do
Speaker 1: you put him? I love the part of the combine
Speaker 1: where it's like, yeah, like what happened Gry's like, no,
Speaker 1: I just hate a lot of food. He was up
Speaker 1: front about it. He said I had an eating problem.
Speaker 1: Eating problem. I mean he ad hanging out with Jamison.
Speaker 1: They eat the krab legs, you know, without butter. You
Speaker 1: gotta skip the butter. Now is that gonna change once?
Speaker 1: Once he's earning these big contracts, if you can afford
Speaker 1: more food. Let me tell you what if you're if
Speaker 1: you're gonna do the homework and you're gonna you're gonna go.
Speaker 1: Two years ago, you talked all the scouts. Scouts, you're like,
Speaker 1: you know, they everybody knows the player that was two
Speaker 1: years this this guy now is kind of like but
Speaker 1: he's lost weight, he's slimmed down. We've talked about that.
Speaker 1: You like him at sixty? Who I'm trying? Are you
Speaker 1: upset at sixty? No? If I'm not, but I okay,
Speaker 1: it's got Coleman there. He's not your first choice. That's
Speaker 1: im same, He's not my first choice. Would you take
Speaker 1: him at sixty if your best options were not there?
Speaker 1: If you're best out, yeah, let's say you're a running
Speaker 1: backs gone and uh, you know mckenney's not there. Okay,
Speaker 1: Kendrick's gone. Nys Gondricks is going before or forty five,
Speaker 1: he's not there. Coleman's gone, Coleman is definitely gone. Duke
Speaker 1: Johnson gone. Duke Johnson goes at fifty nine, and you
Speaker 1: break the window. Oh what are we doing with Duke
Speaker 1: at fifty nine? We're moving up a spot. I'm saying,
Speaker 1: bottom line, we've talked about a lot of names in
Speaker 1: the last ten minutes. I feel pretty good one of
Speaker 1: those names is going to be there. Yes, I agree,
Speaker 1: And so I don't think there's a need to move
Speaker 1: around unless there's a guy that they really really want.
Speaker 1: But what if, what if would you move up? You
Speaker 1: get Aunty? If Duke's there at fifty eight and you're
Speaker 1: not cat mean, I mean, who's who picks in front
Speaker 1: of him? Who else is there? Because I put it,
Speaker 1: I put Baltimore, Carolina depends on that running back run. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I who else is there? Arizona and Detroit picking the
Speaker 1: mid fifties. Everybody knows what Coleman like. If you say
Speaker 1: Coleman's gone, Yeldon's gone. And now we're getting to fifty
Speaker 1: eight and Duke is sitting there. Yeah, And maybe I
Speaker 1: don't trust a j with the knee. Now do I
Speaker 1: start to think about it? Like I think that's where
Speaker 1: you start to get nervous if your linebackers are gone too.
Speaker 1: Now it's like, okay, what's it? Custom up couple spots.
Speaker 1: Let me feel really good that we're starting. That passed quickly.
Speaker 1: Willie Brown as you can see from the Raiders, and
Speaker 1: Dwight Stevenson from the Miami Dolphins. And to my right
Speaker 1: on the end with the cowboy hat, Mel Blue of
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, and next to him number twelve, Jim
Speaker 1: Kelly of the Buffalo bill and for you Chicago, the
Speaker 1: great linebacker Dick Buckets. So here we go with round two.
Speaker 1: You ready, the Tennessee Titans are now on the clock. Okay, Commissioner,
Speaker 1: thank you very much. Round starts at six o six,
Speaker 1: and here we go. The picks will be seven minutes
Speaker 1: as opposed to ten, so we'll be coming a little
Speaker 1: bit faster and more often. So we know this phone
Speaker 1: has been buzzing off the hook at the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: Uh that It's amazing how we switched to this format
Speaker 1: where it's first round one day, second third rounds the
Speaker 1: next day. The third day's fourth through seven. That format
Speaker 1: really made that pick number thirty three a lot more valuable,
Speaker 1: and so I think it would not shock me at all.
Speaker 1: We see a trade here a team that wants to
Speaker 1: get up to thirty three to make sure they get
Speaker 1: their guy, kind of like the Cowboys last year. Well,
Speaker 1: I think I think this is what I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: my own experience, I think it's gonna be very difficult
Speaker 1: to get in the early part of this round, just
Speaker 1: me personally, and just as I mentioned that Brian brought us.
Speaker 1: You don't know every You aren't talking to the mock
Speaker 1: draft king of the world here, wiz it. Yeah, that's okay,
Speaker 1: New York Giants. Okay, New York Football Giants. There you
Speaker 1: go to me though, this is this is where now
Speaker 1: you're right, dude, good job there. I was. My experience
Speaker 1: was when you had had a night to sit on
Speaker 1: the draft. When you had a night, the first ten
Speaker 1: picks were very difficult. People had their mind in their
Speaker 1: mind what they wanted to who they wanted to take.
Speaker 1: You had to really pride them off that pick. I
Speaker 1: felt like though, that it was gonna be uh that
Speaker 1: at least we were gonna go through ten picks before.
Speaker 1: But here, You're right, the Giants appear to be on
Speaker 1: the clock right now, already off to a more surprising
Speaker 1: start than last. Yeah, let's talk about the Letts forty
Speaker 1: to thirty three. And in my mock draft, my second
Speaker 1: round mock draft, I had them taking land In Collins.
Speaker 1: And so that's a player that if I'm sitting at
Speaker 1: forty and I want a safety, I know I better
Speaker 1: go up and get him because he might not last
Speaker 1: a forty for me. So Landon Collins, I think, is
Speaker 1: a player to watch right here. Does Gregory appeal to them?
Speaker 1: You think? I think the character party is really hard
Speaker 1: for them. They're one of these teams. It's not a
Speaker 1: big big on charc they're really big on character. Talent wise. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin doesn't strike me as a guy will to
Speaker 1: put up with a lot of Let's talk about their needs.
Speaker 1: Safety Danes hit it right on the head, Dan, the
Speaker 1: safety being number one. They took the offensive lineman last night,
Speaker 1: and Flowers defensive end a possibility here and also as
Speaker 1: well tight end. Uh Max Williams here maybe something like
Speaker 1: that to think about, who what what? I just wonder
Speaker 1: who else who would be trading up for get in
Speaker 1: front of everybody. Coins is this sort of guy. That's
Speaker 1: what makes sense is for landing Collins. Uh tennis or
Speaker 1: the Giants gave up obviously the fortieth pick overall, their
Speaker 1: second round pick, also their fourth and their seventh. Okay,
Speaker 1: to get up. It's not too bad. So we're moving
Speaker 1: around on the sheets here, fourth and seventh. So let's
Speaker 1: see here filling in our sheets. That's gonna go to Tennessee.
Speaker 1: Oh wow? Yeah? And then also too, they lost they
Speaker 1: did they lost Stevie Brown? Did they not? Well, it
Speaker 1: looks like here they lost Stevie Brown and Ontrell Roll.
Speaker 1: They don't. They're they've got they've got three safeties on
Speaker 1: the it has to be Collins then yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: they don't have a safety right now. And you said
Speaker 1: a seventh as well, Dane, Right, So that pick is
Speaker 1: U fourt round pick was pick one oh eight now
Speaker 1: goes to Tennessee and two forty five seven and the
Speaker 1: two forty five is the seven, so we will we
Speaker 1: will mark that. But yeah, yeah, we've we've talked about
Speaker 1: the Giants needs. They went and addressed the offensive offensive
Speaker 1: lineman last night, safety defensive end, and then also tied end.
Speaker 1: Defensive tackle corner is also uh Stevie Brown is with
Speaker 1: the Texans and Nontrel Rolls with the Bears. Now, uh
Speaker 1: so they, um, I don't I know. Dane remembers Nat
Speaker 1: Burhee is a guy that they signed like in the
Speaker 1: tail end of the draft last year. It just doesn't
Speaker 1: seem like those other needs are something. You've got a
Speaker 1: trade up seven or eight spots. I mean, you're trying
Speaker 1: to get up there, You're trying to get the safety.
Speaker 1: This is a guy that they need to start right away. Uh.
Speaker 1: And this is again I had Landon Collins to New
Speaker 1: York Giants in my second round mock at forty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I think it the need is there. I think
Speaker 1: the fit is there. The Giants just felt like they
Speaker 1: could not wait to forty to get their guy. Because
Speaker 1: again we've talked about it all year. If you don't
Speaker 1: get your safety early, you're not getting your safety. So yeah,
Speaker 1: this this makes a lot of sense. Talk about though,
Speaker 1: what you see with Landon Collins as a player though,
Speaker 1: Dane or and also there, uh, Jeff, if he's a
Speaker 1: box guy, he's a strong safety. He's gonna come up
Speaker 1: and hit you, run a stout run defender. I love
Speaker 1: the breakdown skills. Um. I love he's just a missile
Speaker 1: coming downhill now in reverse. His instincts and pass coverage
Speaker 1: leave a lot to be desired. He needs some work there.
Speaker 1: He just I don't think he trusts what he sees.
Speaker 1: He doesn't anticipate. It's like he has to see the
Speaker 1: play unfold before he's ready to react. What do you see? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought, just like for me, I hear about the
Speaker 1: guys before we start to watch them a lot of times,
Speaker 1: like some people have their boards out, and so I
Speaker 1: heard heard a lot about Landing Collins, and to hear
Speaker 1: people talk about him, you get, oh, is this man
Speaker 1: he can really cover? He can play center field and
Speaker 1: he can go side. I didn't see it at all.
Speaker 1: That was not at all. I mean, I think if
Speaker 1: you're if you need a strong safety, sure, I think
Speaker 1: that that's a solid player. If you need a guy
Speaker 1: that's gonna cover, I don't think he's gonna help you
Speaker 1: a lot. I think the Giants if in fact this
Speaker 1: is the pick, If Landing Collins is pick at safety,
Speaker 1: I would really question his ability to cover. I thought
Speaker 1: Landing Collins, if you put him an outside linebacker. I
Speaker 1: thought he had a better chance of playing. Uh, let's
Speaker 1: go to the commissioner is going to the podium, or
Speaker 1: let's see this man an announcement. It's somebody. Yeah, here
Speaker 1: we go. The Tennessee Titans have traded the thirty third
Speaker 1: pick to the New York Giants to announce the New
Speaker 1: York Giants selection. Please welcome from UCLA, the twenty fourth
Speaker 1: overall selection in the nineteen ninety eight draft by the
Speaker 1: Giants defensive bat Sean Williams, all right Chicago. With the
Speaker 1: thirty third pick in the twenty fifteen NFL Draft, the
Speaker 1: New York Giants select Landing College defensive Here we go.
Speaker 1: So Landing College, in fact is the pick. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: and we've talked about that again. I don't see a
Speaker 1: real good covered guy. I see a downhill player, a
Speaker 1: guy that could play near the line of scrimmage. He's
Speaker 1: a physical tackler. You know, a lot of the Giants has.
Speaker 1: The Giants have always been a physical defensive team. In fact,
Speaker 1: he can be that type of player. But again, in
Speaker 1: this day and age, where you have to play in coverage,
Speaker 1: where you have to play in space, I think that's
Speaker 1: a little bit of a of a stretch for him
Speaker 1: to have to do that, and you see the coverage limitations. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you guys are the tape gurus. Did they just did
Speaker 1: they just draft Barry Church that you know what, he's
Speaker 1: a better Burried Church. He's okay, Yeah, I mean, I
Speaker 1: mean that Barry Church doesn't cover well either. That's man.
Speaker 1: You have to play Buried Church up front so he
Speaker 1: doesn't have to play in space. And then this is
Speaker 1: that I think this is a similar guy. Right last year,
Speaker 1: He's got his limitations, but yes, he's a serviceable he's
Speaker 1: a serviceable guy. Now, last year, DeMarco Murray against the
Speaker 1: Giants und twenty eight yards one hundred twenty one yards.
Speaker 1: He's still in the division. Giants need a guy that's
Speaker 1: gonna be enforcer verse the run. The Cowboys are gonna
Speaker 1: probably gonna get a running back, if not today, early tomorrow,
Speaker 1: So they need a guy like this who can beat
Speaker 1: that enforcer versus the run. But again, don't expect much
Speaker 1: in coverage. But what he brings you versu the run
Speaker 1: is why they went up and got him. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so Tampa Bay is now on the clock. We swing
Speaker 1: our attention to the Buccaneers drafted yesterday. Of course, Winston
Speaker 1: the quarterback from Florida State. Any thoughts of what direction, Dan,
Speaker 1: I know you've had to do a lot of mock
Speaker 1: drafting stuff. Any thought of maybe where they might go
Speaker 1: with this porture pickle, let me get the needs if
Speaker 1: I could real quick quarterback, offensive tackle, defensive end, guard, center,
Speaker 1: wide receiver potentially as well. I'm looking at offensive tackle.
Speaker 1: You gotta protect your quarterback, you have to protect your investment.
Speaker 1: And this, this offensive line is a really, really trouble
Speaker 1: area for the Bucks. And so there's still some talented
Speaker 1: tackles on the board. Jake Fisher Oregon right, Donovan Smith,
Speaker 1: Penn State, Clemings, TJ. Clemmings, that's who I I have Clemings.
Speaker 1: I have Clemmings as still on my board in the
Speaker 1: first round. And I and I'm now thinking that maybe
Speaker 1: there was some injury history here. There's something that I
Speaker 1: don't know about that that that that caused him not
Speaker 1: to be picked. I think he's a first round tackle,
Speaker 1: and obviously he's gonna be clubbing if he's one of
Speaker 1: the guys if he is in fact selected here, you know,
Speaker 1: just outside the first round. So you know, is his
Speaker 1: rawness enough is I mean, is it enough to scare
Speaker 1: teams off that I think this isn't a lockdown guy
Speaker 1: for J. J. Clemings. I mean this Senior Bowl was
Speaker 1: really what did it for? I think for a lot
Speaker 1: of people, his struggles in that in that game, that
Speaker 1: week of practice I think really scared some people because
Speaker 1: it did show how raw he still is. And he's
Speaker 1: only been playing the position for two years. He didn't
Speaker 1: been playing high school. He was a defensive end. Threw
Speaker 1: and three. Yeah, they moved dots and the Buccaneers moved
Speaker 1: Dotson over to the left tackle spot, so they might
Speaker 1: be looking for a right tackle here. Uh, this could
Speaker 1: have been I think Clemmings. If if in case, that's
Speaker 1: my best? Who else to maybe some other offense? Donovan
Speaker 1: Smith at a Penn State and Jake Fisher I think
Speaker 1: if you're looking, I mean, Jake Fisher is the lighter player.
Speaker 1: You know. You see he's a former tight end. You
Speaker 1: see his ability to shuffle in his kickslide and pass pro.
Speaker 1: Donovan Smith's interesting because you see the talent on tape
Speaker 1: and but you just the efforts been questioned. He just
Speaker 1: feels like he should be he should be better. I
Speaker 1: thought his Senior Bowl tape was actually pretty good. That's
Speaker 1: what's going to get him drafted higher than Clemmings potentially
Speaker 1: is the Senior Bowl. Yeah, you watch his his junior
Speaker 1: tape at Penn State, very up and down again the
Speaker 1: f that's something that Penn State coaches, you talk to them,
Speaker 1: not not someone that they talk very highly of when
Speaker 1: when you talk about the effort. So but you're absolutely
Speaker 1: right about the Senior Bowl. He went to the Senior
Speaker 1: Bowl and made him It made himself some money. We
Speaker 1: do believe it's going to be an offensive tackle, whether
Speaker 1: it's uh Clemmings, Fisher Smith, one of those types of
Speaker 1: This is what we like because I constantly have the
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys in my head. Safety's an offensive lineman there.
Speaker 1: You take them up, pack them, pick them all that,
Speaker 1: all of them except the one tackle that we need
Speaker 1: to get later, but all the other ones. Pick them
Speaker 1: right now. Second rounds a great time, Okay, commissioners going
Speaker 1: to the podium, this just makes it makes way too
Speaker 1: much sense. And get your quarterback and a guy who
Speaker 1: can protect them all right, can't please? Welcome from Purdue
Speaker 1: University a second round draft pick in the nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: six draft by the Buccaneers running back Michael Statue than
Speaker 1: all stocks It's down Bowl. In the twenty fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select Donna than Smith. Penn State,
Speaker 1: here we go Donovan Smith. So they we talked about
Speaker 1: the need for the offit to tackle the Buccaneers. If
Speaker 1: we look at their first two kneeds off the board,
Speaker 1: they went quarterback. Offit to tackle was the second one.
Speaker 1: So they go bang bang on their picks. You got
Speaker 1: a stud quarterback, got a good tackle, got a stud receiver,
Speaker 1: tight end with a lot of upside. Like another team
Speaker 1: that the Dallas Cowboys we'll see during the years. So
Speaker 1: Donovan Smith could be playing as your right tackle for
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. Assuming these guys are hits. That's a nice
Speaker 1: offense that they're building down all right. Next up on
Speaker 1: the clock will be the Oakland Raiders, unless there's some
Speaker 1: type of trade going on here. Reggie McKenzie, my former
Speaker 1: guy from the Green Bay Packers, likes to move around
Speaker 1: a little bit himself, so we'll see if the Raiders.
Speaker 1: In fact, we'll stand in there. Last night, we all
Speaker 1: felt really good about the selection with the wide receiver.
Speaker 1: I still maintain it should have been Leonard Williams for
Speaker 1: whatever was. I'm a I'll be with you. Our guy
Speaker 1: Derek Car needs somebody to throw to him, and there's
Speaker 1: somebody awesome best player. But if you guy, but I
Speaker 1: agree about and you loved Car last year. I mean
Speaker 1: when we were doing radio and stuff together, you were
Speaker 1: a big fan of Car. We all had our guys Bortles,
Speaker 1: you know, the genius here had Bridgewater was his guy
Speaker 1: smart man. So you know that's what I'm saying. Though,
Speaker 1: As far as the Raiders weapons defense, Reggie McKenzie, I
Speaker 1: was surprised he passed on Leonard Williams. I'm woying Reggie
Speaker 1: mckenzip point and what he likes. But still, you know
Speaker 1: you're right about getting your your quarterback weapons have to
Speaker 1: do it. Crabtree and uh Cooper will be a nice
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen for the ring. Okay, if you look at
Speaker 1: their needs, wide receiver being the first one, they looking
Speaker 1: at a d E that can rush, and a DT
Speaker 1: rusher inside, maybe a guard tackle safety we talked about
Speaker 1: in another corner. There's not a d ND available that
Speaker 1: can rush. Is there is there? Maybe? Is there a
Speaker 1: Husker maybe I think doesn't take chances on those types things,
Speaker 1: would never take it care I'm thinking the old man
Speaker 1: was still live, they would. Well, he had been drafted,
Speaker 1: probably has kids in charge. So yeah, I think going
Speaker 1: back to offensive line too. H Jake Fisher a player
Speaker 1: we mentioned, Yeah, boy, but he is in. But okay,
Speaker 1: we talked about getting your quarterback weapons. No, no, you're right,
Speaker 1: let's not tech. They're absolutely right. You're right. So I
Speaker 1: think that's uh, let's getting more weapons, Diggie Diggy, can't
Speaker 1: you see? That's what I'm thinking. Just get enough weapons
Speaker 1: that we're just gonna snap it and throw. Is this
Speaker 1: too is too high? Well, we talked about him at
Speaker 1: twenty seven, I know, but they didn't take it. Is it?
Speaker 1: Is it too high Dane for Odiggie at thirty five? No?
Speaker 1: I mean he's a pass rusher, and there's pass rushers
Speaker 1: are a premium and so if you can get one
Speaker 1: here that you feel is starter material, absolutely not. It's
Speaker 1: not too early. Yeah, I just I just so too
Speaker 1: early for Eli Harold And how many teams do you
Speaker 1: think think he's a backer? And how many think he's
Speaker 1: an end? He got he put on a bunch of weight,
Speaker 1: right he did. I mean he's he's a player. He's
Speaker 1: a work in progress obviously, And with going Khalil mac
Speaker 1: last year, having kind of that that rush end that
Speaker 1: can stand up, can put his hand on the ground,
Speaker 1: is Eli Harold just kind of the same thing, just
Speaker 1: a more rob version. You know, I'm not sure if
Speaker 1: if that's who they would like there or here here again,
Speaker 1: let's go through again that the needs that I said
Speaker 1: about the rush end, the defensive tackle rush end, you know,
Speaker 1: and you mentioned also an offensive tackle. So we've talked
Speaker 1: about Odiggy, We've talked about We're okay, you were laughing.
Speaker 1: We were talking about Mario Edwards earlier, you know. I mean, well,
Speaker 1: and this is a player that uh, you know, Jason
Speaker 1: lockinfor came out and said he's gonna go somewhere between
Speaker 1: eleven and I remember that twenty years he said, expect
Speaker 1: I would take I personally would take the Nebraska guy
Speaker 1: myself here if it was me. I mean I I
Speaker 1: this is where you wanted legitimate pass rushier, This is
Speaker 1: where I would take to know what you said you said?
Speaker 1: What did you say? You said pass rusher? You said
Speaker 1: pass Russia yea, I need a d they need a
Speaker 1: defensio and they went receiver first and wait defensive in Russia?
Speaker 1: What are they? What are they running in Oakland? Right now?
Speaker 1: I don't even know. Three to four it's a it's
Speaker 1: a new scheme. Well, let's see, it's Jack del Rio.
Speaker 1: So it's a three to four. Yeah, it took me
Speaker 1: a three to four. Yeah, I want I want Randy
Speaker 1: Gregory and in a three four, if I'm picking him,
Speaker 1: I would rather have him standing. I mean, but is
Speaker 1: he repetitive? With Khalil Mac what's Khalil Max roll? There?
Speaker 1: He's a stand up outside guy right right, Well, he's
Speaker 1: in Jack del Rio scheme. Probably do a little bit
Speaker 1: of both. Well. With Mario Edwards, I do think you
Speaker 1: have a player that's versatile who just you have so
Speaker 1: much talent there. If you can hone the talent, keep
Speaker 1: them away from some food the line, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: you have something. Let's talk about him though, too, flexibility
Speaker 1: to play as an end. That's what I'm saying. That
Speaker 1: first play Nickel is a nickel rusher, move them inside
Speaker 1: and passing downs. Yeah, I think absolutely that's a that
Speaker 1: makes sense. But again, you have to feel comfortable with
Speaker 1: his eating habits, you know, is he gonna put the
Speaker 1: effort in? And this is a player we know about
Speaker 1: the bloodlines. His dad was the Dallas Cowboy drafted him.
Speaker 1: I was on the staffed drafted him. How was he
Speaker 1: as an eater? He was a skinny cornerback. Corner maybe
Speaker 1: better metabolism. He was a real, real skinny quarterback. So
Speaker 1: how crazy would that be to draft the guy? Yeah,
Speaker 1: his dad played with guys who are still on this team. Yeah, weird,
Speaker 1: Yeah weird. I mean that is crazy. That is crazy.
Speaker 1: So we will see though, in fact, which way that
Speaker 1: they the Oakland Raiders go here. And I think when
Speaker 1: we talk about these first ten picks of the second round,
Speaker 1: pass rushers are gonna be a premium and or blockers
Speaker 1: the big guys. And so far we saw the safety
Speaker 1: go first. But then, uh, you know, we saw the blocker.
Speaker 1: I'm sure we're gonna see some pass rushers here come
Speaker 1: off the board. Yeah, and that's again, Yeah, you're you're
Speaker 1: talking about a position where a lot of teams, it's
Speaker 1: like cornerbacks, team are looking for those that ability to
Speaker 1: get guys on the ground. So let's see, we've talked
Speaker 1: about a bunch of different ones. Uh, it could very
Speaker 1: well be like I say, oh, Diggy, we're talking about
Speaker 1: the Nebraska kid. We've talked about Mario Edwards because of
Speaker 1: the position, flexibility and stuff like that that that you
Speaker 1: can do with him. So you know, again, I I'm
Speaker 1: with you though about the offensive lineman. I'm I'm trying
Speaker 1: to help car you know. I I've got the weapon
Speaker 1: on the outside. I think the receiver. Cooper, Yeah, may Cooper.
Speaker 1: I'm just you know, there's a lot of different directions
Speaker 1: that the Raiders can go here. So you know, well
Speaker 1: we will uh soon find out the pick has been in.
Speaker 1: There's well, Mayo's already taking his coat off as I
Speaker 1: see on that, so he's he's about ready to roll
Speaker 1: up the sleeves and get going here for him, very
Speaker 1: very early for him to do this. But uh, the
Speaker 1: Raiders though closer to being better. REGI King, Oh, by
Speaker 1: the way, okay, where we go. The Commissioner's walking to
Speaker 1: the podium, Oakland Raiders selection. Please welcome from Grambling State University.
Speaker 1: An undrafted free agent in nineteen sixty three. Raiders Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame cornerback Willie Brown, Willy Brown, thank you, I'm
Speaker 1: drinking sixty three, thank you very much. Thank you. Let
Speaker 1: me guess say, last year, I which all the mothers
Speaker 1: Happy Mother's Day. So that's coming up next week. So
Speaker 1: hapving Mother's Day, guys, Ladies happen days to her and
Speaker 1: missus cal David having mother Day to you. Okay, let's
Speaker 1: get it on. Raided Nation. Huh. With the thirty fifth
Speaker 1: pick in his two thy fifteen draft, the Oakland Raiders
Speaker 1: select Mario Edward Jr. Defense End, Florida State. I don't know, man. Again,
Speaker 1: we talked about, yeah, these these pass rats are gonna
Speaker 1: go early. If you don't get them, you better better
Speaker 1: get him early. So with Mario Redward's look, the questions
Speaker 1: are there that two seventy nine, I mean he played
Speaker 1: at probably close to twenty. Look at the question they
Speaker 1: put up three ten or two seventy two. He was
Speaker 1: close to three twenty during the year, had to That's
Speaker 1: what he looked. That's what he played like. Yeah, which
Speaker 1: is crazy because even at even at this high for
Speaker 1: a guy who maybe last year's tape doesn't say you
Speaker 1: take him high. But because I've seen what he can be,
Speaker 1: right and I know that it lives inside there somewhere,
Speaker 1: I know there's a first round player said in a
Speaker 1: minute ago, he's getting drafted based on stuff that happened
Speaker 1: to you. Yeah, look at all the they just showed
Speaker 1: a bunch of highlights. Every single one was for the
Speaker 1: National championship game against Florida from against Auburn. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: that was one of his better games. He gave Robinson
Speaker 1: problem absolutely, But notice how none of them were from
Speaker 1: this past year because there yeah, a lot of questions
Speaker 1: from his junior year. But again, the talent is there,
Speaker 1: the potential is there. If it's a need too for
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Do you ever realize that they didn't give
Speaker 1: him a new jersey? Seems like it was last year's
Speaker 1: jersey size after a Yeah, it was a tough go
Speaker 1: at one five wasn't looking very slimming. Something a little
Speaker 1: more concerning than occasional ganja Use is up with Randy
Speaker 1: Gregory me thinks, well, yeah, there's I mean, it's I mean,
Speaker 1: if he could very well be the big big slider
Speaker 1: into this round, he already is well, yeah, he could
Speaker 1: just keep going. We could keep going. And yeah, like
Speaker 1: we said, yes, and if he gives close to Dallas's pick,
Speaker 1: that's where your considerations could be. It's gonna be a thing. Okay,
Speaker 1: Jacksonville is on the clock. We've talked about We've talked
Speaker 1: about the Jaguars. This was a team that we initially thought,
Speaker 1: Jeff that was going to take a running back, that
Speaker 1: that could be where we see the first running back.
Speaker 1: Uh go off the board in the in the second round,
Speaker 1: and what do we have? What do you have for
Speaker 1: their other needs? Because I see defensive line here too,
Speaker 1: the end d tackle running back the FOLI okay, so
Speaker 1: they got the passion, they got one there. Okay, so
Speaker 1: defensive tackle is another one as well. So a potential
Speaker 1: trouble spot. You know me, I'm a Dallas Cowboys observer.
Speaker 1: So I'm watching this pick and the one thing that
Speaker 1: I'm hoping is, I hope I don't see Tevin Coleman.
Speaker 1: I hope I don't see t J. I hope I
Speaker 1: don't see a running back name come off the clock. Yeah,
Speaker 1: looks like we're at the podium. We're at the podium
Speaker 1: right now that it's gracious they selection please sprinted to
Speaker 1: the podium from Florida State University, a second round pick
Speaker 1: in the two thousand and four draft, running back Greg Jones.
Speaker 1: He was good with the thirty sixth pick in the
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen ball draft, the Jacksonville JAGUARSL tj yelled running
Speaker 1: back out of ball. Here we go. Mock drafted the
Speaker 1: draft kings well, and then we thought that was going
Speaker 1: to happen. We thought that was gonna be the running
Speaker 1: back was gonna come off the board here. Um Now,
Speaker 1: the question is when does the next running back we
Speaker 1: gonna We're gonna see a little bit of a run
Speaker 1: here or is this just an isolation pick? And you
Speaker 1: know we don't see another running back for ten picks. Well,
Speaker 1: that means the New York Jets are on the clock
Speaker 1: now as we speak at thirty seven. Um Man, looking
Speaker 1: at this again, I was talking about running back and
Speaker 1: this is just Brian broad Us focusing. They're gonna have
Speaker 1: to walk a minefield now in my opinion. And then
Speaker 1: the fact that Yelden went this early in it again,
Speaker 1: there's there's teams well ahead. I think if Dallas, to
Speaker 1: be honestly wants to be safe, I talked about on
Speaker 1: our show, I think you're gonna have to make a
Speaker 1: small trade up to Miami at forty seven. I think
Speaker 1: that that it would assure you if if another put
Speaker 1: it this way, if another running back goes, if you
Speaker 1: get Coleman now in the next two picks or three picks,
Speaker 1: where then I think you have to figure out this
Speaker 1: is not going to stretch. Let's let's let's take a
Speaker 1: little I mean, all right, maybe the Jets want one.
Speaker 1: They have Chris Ivory, he's not something super special. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Washington's got Morris, who's been great, Chicago's got Forte. Tennessee
Speaker 1: just drafted Sankky Saint Louis obviously girly last night. I
Speaker 1: think Atlanta could probably use a running back. I think
Speaker 1: Cleveland probably wouldn't mind taking a running back, even though
Speaker 1: they've got Weston Um the other Crowl Crowl Dane help
Speaker 1: me out, Isaiah Crowell. Cleveland. Yeah, New Orleans doesn't need one.
Speaker 1: Minnesota we assume doesn't need one. Uh. San Francisco, and
Speaker 1: then and then Miami at forty seven it is another
Speaker 1: trouble spot. Yeah. So, I mean I don't see a
Speaker 1: boatload of teams here that need them, but enough that
Speaker 1: it makes you want to maybe, well, you just never
Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen with the with the pick and
Speaker 1: I would only say that if there was two picks
Speaker 1: in Okay, the Jets, let's talk about them. Uh, quarterback,
Speaker 1: outside linebacker rush or a running back here? Inside linebacker,
Speaker 1: wide receiver for the Jets. And let me just kind
Speaker 1: of go through, could we see her first quarterback or
Speaker 1: the number three quarterback in this draft? Could we possibly
Speaker 1: see him here? I think yeah, I wouldn't. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think of too about the edge rusher here as well.
Speaker 1: You know, if you if you talk about could Kendricks'd
Speaker 1: be I don't know if he's an eight would be
Speaker 1: at not the edge rusher that you're looking I've just
Speaker 1: outside its really an outside linebacker, but a rusher. Uh,
Speaker 1: they're talking about running back inside see an inside linebacker possibility? Um,
Speaker 1: And I mean I'm just trying to look at who
Speaker 1: would be somebody that Mike mccagnan would you know. Let's offensively, though,
Speaker 1: how much of a shot do they want to give
Speaker 1: Geno Smith in this offense? Well, that's what Dane was
Speaker 1: trying to talk about with the first quarterback going off.
Speaker 1: That's what I want because if I really want to
Speaker 1: give him a shot, maybe you give him a toy.
Speaker 1: I'm way more forgiving than most. I don't think it's
Speaker 1: time to close the book on Geno Smith. He's been okay.
Speaker 1: They weren't great last year, but he was decent in
Speaker 1: his first year. So I don't know. Oh no, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not I don't know. Maybe Gino Smith isn't the answer,
Speaker 1: but I don't think anybody they can get right here
Speaker 1: is the answer. I know. I think you're absolutely right there.
Speaker 1: And with a new regime with Mike mcagnet GM and
Speaker 1: Bulls as the head coach, they're not pressured to take
Speaker 1: a quarterback here. They're not pressured to get a quarterback
Speaker 1: in this draft, right. I mean, I think they're okay
Speaker 1: going next year with Gino Smith and uh Fitzpatrick. And
Speaker 1: if that's the case, then you know that's what they'll do.
Speaker 1: They're not pressured to go quarterback here if they don't
Speaker 1: see one that fits their offense, fits what they want
Speaker 1: to do, and it's frankly worth the pick. The If
Speaker 1: you look at one of their big acquisitions this uh
Speaker 1: past spring was Brandon Marshall, you know, and you look
Speaker 1: you talk about Brandon Marshall with his size, Eric Decker,
Speaker 1: that's a pretty decent one too. Yeah, I mean that
Speaker 1: if you know, if you think about speed, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, if if the thing with the with the Jets,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, if you have Decker and then
Speaker 1: you have you know, I'm just trying to think of, though,
Speaker 1: who's your vertical player? Curly? I mean Curly Curly is
Speaker 1: an underneath type of a player. You know, he's an
Speaker 1: explosive little player. But I don't know. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just sonna if you're if you're thinking about best available player. Though,
Speaker 1: as far as we we've talked about that. I mean
Speaker 1: we said about the linebacker. Uh, we've you know, we
Speaker 1: talked about you know, Green Beckham. I mean, could could
Speaker 1: they add a receiver here? Could they get could they
Speaker 1: get somebody that's a vertical player. We talked about the
Speaker 1: quarterback position and obviously it's not a strength for this team,
Speaker 1: but you can help out the quarterback by adding more weapons.
Speaker 1: And you know, we know they added Brandon Marshall in
Speaker 1: the off season. Yeah, a player who's not in his
Speaker 1: prime anymore. Uh, but you know he's on the decline.
Speaker 1: But you know you can get a young player here
Speaker 1: to see. That's where I wonder underneath them, Well, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the Jets. I see say, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, and I'm not shot in the rear over
Speaker 1: the you know. I mean, I'm saying this, but I
Speaker 1: understand what Kendricks is and those I get that. But
Speaker 1: Devin Smith, Yeah, I just I'm seas. But that's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, though. If you've got two guys that can
Speaker 1: just and we know what Brandon Marshall is, you know,
Speaker 1: we know what Decker is. A damn fine receiver. He is.
Speaker 1: You kind of said that with disdain in your heard No,
Speaker 1: not at all, but did I but I did. I'd
Speaker 1: say it with the way though that he's not a burner.
Speaker 1: But what about in this day and age. Okay, the
Speaker 1: commissioners going to the podium, Let's see who they in
Speaker 1: fact select here to announce the New York Jets selection.
Speaker 1: Please welcome from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. A
Speaker 1: seventh round draft pick in nineteen sixty six, damn running
Speaker 1: back Emerson Boozer wi oh and the two draft smokes
Speaker 1: a pack in theas Devin Smith wide receiver, I go,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about that vertical threat. Yeah, holy cow, vertical
Speaker 1: threat can take the top off the defense and it doesn't.
Speaker 1: You can't really look at the impact that he makes
Speaker 1: by the catches in the stat sheet because every time
Speaker 1: he lines up on the field, defenses have to be
Speaker 1: aware of it, and they're going to pay attention to
Speaker 1: what he can do deep and so that's going to
Speaker 1: open things up underneath. And so for Devin Smith, he
Speaker 1: helps your offense in a lot of way. It was
Speaker 1: amazing his I don't have in front of me, but
Speaker 1: his yards per catch it was like twenty six. Yeah.
Speaker 1: In the touchdown the percentage like if they throw the
Speaker 1: ball to him four point it's going basically thirty yards
Speaker 1: or more and about half the time it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Numbers weren't huge, but like you said, you've
Speaker 1: got to know where he is and you've got to
Speaker 1: account for the fact that whoever's in front of him
Speaker 1: gonna stay in front of him. Somebody better be back there.
Speaker 1: He averaged twenty eight point two yards per catch. This
Speaker 1: passion didn't say that's ridiculous, And he averaged a touchdown
Speaker 1: every four catches four point zero catches. I mean, it's
Speaker 1: one thing to say big ten defenses and you know
Speaker 1: this and that, but he just really is so good
Speaker 1: at tracking the ball, the ball skills at the catch point.
Speaker 1: And then it's not necessarily the burst off the line,
Speaker 1: it's the burst down the field. I mean that separation
Speaker 1: when he's already thirty yards down the field, that second separation,
Speaker 1: that's what he does so special that not every receiver
Speaker 1: can do. To watch him, and like what you were
Speaker 1: talking about off the line, you're not necessarily, like Philip
Speaker 1: Door said at Miami, he comes off the line, You're like,
Speaker 1: holy cow, that dude's moving. Devin Smith comes off the line,
Speaker 1: You're like, he's running. And then you watch two safeties
Speaker 1: as he splits them and they're running full speed, and
Speaker 1: it's like, wow, now that dude is moving. I wonder
Speaker 1: because watching him run those deep routes, watching him outrun
Speaker 1: people's angles and outrun the fact that these guys are
Speaker 1: already bailing. To me, it looked like DeShawn Jackson is
Speaker 1: he one? Like? How does that compare? Is he? Is
Speaker 1: he a one trick pony with the deep stuff? What
Speaker 1: do you think about him that way? Yeah? And my
Speaker 1: report I say, I say he's a one trick pony,
Speaker 1: but he's really good at that one t Yeah, and
Speaker 1: he is a nine route monster, and he does need
Speaker 1: to get better with his underneath stuff. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: just he has to get better with his underneath routes
Speaker 1: and catching the ball being more reliable. But you look
Speaker 1: at Mike mccagnet what he did in Houston adding receivers
Speaker 1: like Cashaun Martin at a Michigan state. He added h
Speaker 1: de Vere Posy out of Ohio State. So he's going
Speaker 1: back to that big ten well to get that deep
Speaker 1: vertical receiver. And I think Devin Smith is a great
Speaker 1: pick here. Okay, Washington now is on the clock here
Speaker 1: as we go through the draft. Where it now where
Speaker 1: it pick thirty eight? The Washington Redskins needs being an
Speaker 1: outside linebacker safety. Uh you can say a wide receiver,
Speaker 1: running back and a guard would be the yard guard.
Speaker 1: It sounds like a lot. Uh. Well, and do we
Speaker 1: know where they're playing Sheriff for sure? I have you
Speaker 1: heard the question? I asked area. I think they're gonna
Speaker 1: play him at right tas That's what I had heard too.
Speaker 1: I can't wait for DeMarcus Lawrence to have that six
Speaker 1: set game. It's gonna be great. Yeah, I was, I was.
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see that. I wrote that in my
Speaker 1: notes today. But you know, to me, it's the redskin.
Speaker 1: And and I want to say this just looking at
Speaker 1: my board, of the of the picks that have been
Speaker 1: made so far, uh, all my picks have been coming
Speaker 1: out of guys. The only second round pick that it
Speaker 1: had on my board was Landing Collins. So if if this,
Speaker 1: if my board is any good, the names like Green
Speaker 1: Beckham are still there, guys like that, you know there's
Speaker 1: still some guys there, Coleman, John, we talk at Gregory Davis,
Speaker 1: So that's good. If the Cowboys, if you're looking at
Speaker 1: the Cowboys way potentially of thinking here, well, not only
Speaker 1: that that that's good that and you said it earlier
Speaker 1: that maybe some of these guys, if there are in
Speaker 1: fact third round guys on their board, driving guys to
Speaker 1: them from the top, I run the risk of looking
Speaker 1: like an idiot. But with the Jets passing on a
Speaker 1: running back like we were worried about, right, you probably
Speaker 1: got to run here at least of another four teams
Speaker 1: where it's not really a big concern. I don't know,
Speaker 1: did you just say that out loud? Though I know,
Speaker 1: I know, I'm sorry. And Dane Dane contradiction, I guess
Speaker 1: I guess I'm looking at Atlanta Atlanta. Yeah, and Atlanta
Speaker 1: is the one. Atlanta is the one. Yeah, Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: right there are yeah. For Devant Freeman is their lead
Speaker 1: man right now? Yeah, no, I would kind of Tevin
Speaker 1: Coleman's big, big old, big old bird on his helmet
Speaker 1: here in a few picks. But hey, you never know,
Speaker 1: look at look at the red Skins. This is a
Speaker 1: team that we know quite well. In the end, the
Speaker 1: pick is in, they're in a commercial break, und how
Speaker 1: fast these guys so the But the the thing that
Speaker 1: did I notice about the red Skins? Who is the rusher?
Speaker 1: I mean a rack rack post gone now cargan. See
Speaker 1: that's the thing about it. Did they ever Smith Murphy?
Speaker 1: Murphy was a fill in guy? I mean, we have
Speaker 1: a starter now, ain'ty? Yeah? But do they you know?
Speaker 1: All right, well, let me ask you this still playing
Speaker 1: the three four scheme. No such thing as too many
Speaker 1: pass rushing. We thought they were super interested in trading
Speaker 1: last night? Is that? I mean? Do we think that's
Speaker 1: the possibility? I think they try to get out of this.
Speaker 1: They could, could we see Randy Gregory here? Mmmm? See
Speaker 1: that's where I mean if if if the number one need,
Speaker 1: and again this thing is holding to chuckle, I don't
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. The pick is in. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: they're not trying to yeah this I just said that, right,
Speaker 1: and I just agreed with him. Sorry, I just kind
Speaker 1: of guys, the picks in, they're not trading. I was
Speaker 1: just I was just thinking about along and every everbody's
Speaker 1: at home going what the picks in? And in my
Speaker 1: second round mock, I had him going Randy Gregory because
Speaker 1: I think that that's the point where you maybe take
Speaker 1: a take a chance on a guy like this. You
Speaker 1: can never use too much pass run. You got to
Speaker 1: remember though about Gregory. John Gruden was very critical about
Speaker 1: gret and then his brother being the head coach. Well,
Speaker 1: I guarantee you he got into his brothers here. You know,
Speaker 1: these these these these needs have been holding four you know,
Speaker 1: as far what we're seeing. So if teams are a
Speaker 1: ddressing needs the first three picks we talked about again,
Speaker 1: outside linebacker, safety, wide receiver. You know who knows. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking about, Okay, who would be a guy.
Speaker 1: Maybe there is going to be an outside LIBRCA. Maybe
Speaker 1: you're right about I just don't think that they would
Speaker 1: go to Nebraska route because John was so critical of
Speaker 1: that player, you know, and that makes total sense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know who knows where they go offense? Here? Yeah,
Speaker 1: in defense, and we're looking at offense well wide receiver.
Speaker 1: I mean, is that a possibility as well? I mean,
Speaker 1: you got a pretty solid one two punch there, don't you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the dudes get the dudes get balls though. I mean yeah,
Speaker 1: but dud, would you need like a bigger guy? I mean,
Speaker 1: would would Green Beckham? Makes sense there? Somebody? I mean,
Speaker 1: you got an offensive coach? Is your head coach? Sure?
Speaker 1: That's I mean, that is a great point. And when
Speaker 1: you're talking about I mean you're talking about the money
Speaker 1: they just committed to Robert Griffin, trying to figure out
Speaker 1: if he's the guy they try to help him with
Speaker 1: an offensive lineman. So last night you got you give them? Okay,
Speaker 1: it looks like to me they're movement. They're moving the movement.
Speaker 1: Now we have the war room cam up live. Washington's
Speaker 1: pick is in. They haven't yet walked it to the
Speaker 1: podium yet, so you're now looking up. It looks like
Speaker 1: we got a way better view of Billy McClay tonight.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think the lines have something to
Speaker 1: do with the screen that we're seeing. I think that
Speaker 1: we have a bigger view, got bonus view. They get
Speaker 1: his hand, we get all of them. Interesting that they
Speaker 1: went with the same group of guys in there. I
Speaker 1: thought that as all right, can't to pick his in
Speaker 1: Commissioner's walk into the podium to announce the Washington Redskins selection,
Speaker 1: Please welcome from the University of Cincinnati. A seventh round
Speaker 1: pick in the nineteen sixty five draft defensive back brig
Speaker 1: Owens and two thousand fifteen NFL Draft. There watching Redskins
Speaker 1: select Preston Smith, linebacker Mississippi State. That Preston Smith, that's
Speaker 1: kind of surprising to me, maybe, and you guys are
Speaker 1: the you guys are the tape gurus. But we, or
Speaker 1: at least I we, I guess had him in the
Speaker 1: fourth round. But I know, I know there's people out
Speaker 1: there that were higher on him than that. Dan, What
Speaker 1: did you think on Presston? I like Preston. He was
Speaker 1: my number forty overall players, which and I'm not I'm
Speaker 1: not even really worried about tal or his fit, right,
Speaker 1: I see him as a fourth three guy, right, a
Speaker 1: fourth three guy. They announced him as an outside linebacker.
Speaker 1: If you just heard Brig go and say that, that's interesting.
Speaker 1: I see him as we've talked about, which means that's
Speaker 1: what was written down in the car. Yeah, that they
Speaker 1: turned in. I see him as a big, bulky, run
Speaker 1: stopping defensive end. I mean he weighs two hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy pounds. Yeah, because we were sort of talking about
Speaker 1: him as a d end that if you wanted to
Speaker 1: slide him in that That's what he did in Missisippi
Speaker 1: State this past year. On third downs. You watch him.
Speaker 1: He moved it to the nose of the shaded nose,
Speaker 1: it tilted nose, and he beat centers. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: like they stole something. So you know, I'll be it'll
Speaker 1: be interesting to see how they use yeah, hopefully well
Speaker 1: beating up on LSU division arrival. Hopefully they don't use
Speaker 1: them well, and hopefully that they made a poor pick.
Speaker 1: He doesn't strike me as a guy that's standing up,
Speaker 1: you know, doing the Brian rock poth thing man. And
Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. I'm
Speaker 1: not a scout, but we're all right. And they ruined
Speaker 1: it well, Scott McClue. It seems like to me that
Speaker 1: they've taken two players. Now. We had question marks about
Speaker 1: Sriff and where he was going to play, Now we
Speaker 1: have questions about where would you play Preston Smith. I
Speaker 1: was just sitting there thinking that, you know, again, these
Speaker 1: needs seemed to be holding to chalk what we're talking about,
Speaker 1: that that they would I didn't think that it would
Speaker 1: be Preston Smith as a linebacker, and that's why I
Speaker 1: was interested to see how he was announced. I that's
Speaker 1: like when I just I had it, it was assumed
Speaker 1: in my head he was going to a four or
Speaker 1: three team. I wouldn't have thought that they would try
Speaker 1: to Okay, somebody would try to fit him in anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bush Cago Bears are on the clock right now.
Speaker 1: We look at their needs. Uh, last night, who did
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears take their Dan? You remember who got white? Yeah?
Speaker 1: The wide receiver ran okay, so they got white to white.
Speaker 1: We look at defensive line here, yeah, defensive defensive end,
Speaker 1: corner de tackle or wide receiver here and it picks up.
Speaker 1: So ken't let's get to it. D tackle stick Bucks.
Speaker 1: I don't spect the intend at your duti, give him minute,
Speaker 1: Give him a minute, all right? Ye A quick buckas
Speaker 1: to announced in the Chicago Bearts selection, please welcome from
Speaker 1: the University of Illinois, the third overall pick in the
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty five draft by the Bears. Nineteen seventy nine
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame inductee linebacker Dick buckas okay, with a
Speaker 1: thirty ninth pick in the two thousand and fifteen NFL
Speaker 1: Draft to Chicago Bears select and I like this Eddie
Speaker 1: Goldman nose tackle. Very nice, Dane called it. He said,
Speaker 1: defensive lineman Eddie Goldman, the nose tackle from Florida State.
Speaker 1: The Bears are the team that just keeps drafting the
Speaker 1: defensive tackles that Cowboys fans want to be in Dallas.
Speaker 1: If you think back to last year, Ego Ferguson, Will
Speaker 1: Sutton and now Eddie Goldman really beefing up the inside
Speaker 1: of that defensive well. And the Bears are moving to
Speaker 1: a three four and so you need that nose tackle.
Speaker 1: That's why you thought Danny Shelton maybe a possibility at seven.
Speaker 1: Dango Kevin White there, okay, great, Yeah, I do not
Speaker 1: blame him for that pick at all. But here in
Speaker 1: the second round, get that nose tackle Eddie Goldman player.
Speaker 1: He can play the one the nose. He can do
Speaker 1: a lot of things for you. So I mean six
Speaker 1: three six four, three hundred and thirty six pounds. Not
Speaker 1: many human beings on the plant that can move like him. Okay,
Speaker 1: just looking as you see Charlotte Jones, Anderson Jason Garrett,
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones all as sharing a little bit
Speaker 1: of a laugh here, maybe thinking that I can't believe
Speaker 1: they took Prestons. Well, maybe maybe a situation too where
Speaker 1: they're kind of realizing that their guy it could be
Speaker 1: sliding down their direction. Off to the left of Stephen Jones,
Speaker 1: Will McClay looking down at his notes as well, trying
Speaker 1: to kind of manipulate the board the best he can
Speaker 1: and hope that they get their guy. So, uh, Tennessee
Speaker 1: is now on the clock. Uh. This is a pick
Speaker 1: they received from the New York Giants. When you talk
Speaker 1: about the Titans and some of the things that come
Speaker 1: to mind is like offensive players, weapons, How are they
Speaker 1: gonna help again, a young quarterback who could could surely
Speaker 1: use some guys to to get the football too. Can
Speaker 1: I make a bold predictionary may make it. Make it.
Speaker 1: That's what we do here. Make it. D g B.
Speaker 1: Do you think so? I like it? I like eg B.
Speaker 1: I I mean I know, I know he's a gun runner.
Speaker 1: He's like a not a doesn't sound like a particularly
Speaker 1: good back back story. But I mean he's the heck
Speaker 1: of a bailout option. He's a like he's if he's
Speaker 1: even halfway there. He should be a Dez Bryant type
Speaker 1: receiver and wide receiver would happen to be one of
Speaker 1: the Titans needs. I thought DGB would be picked thirty three,
Speaker 1: so I thought DGB would be a Thursday night that
Speaker 1: was their pick. So you're talking about okay, So, I
Speaker 1: mean it sounds good. They They have Justin Hunter, they
Speaker 1: have Kendall Wright. They signed Harry Douglas too, didn't they.
Speaker 1: I mean, we got Delaney Walker's probably like their most
Speaker 1: reliable dude. A pad fantasy year for me last year
Speaker 1: and kicked the Cowboys ass in week two. We talked
Speaker 1: about with Jameis Winston, making sure you get him help.
Speaker 1: So you get the blocker, okay, Marcus Mariota, get him
Speaker 1: some help. Is that that a pass catcher, A big
Speaker 1: bodied player, that you can develop, develop the chemistry and
Speaker 1: or do you go offensive line here? Offensive line an
Speaker 1: issue in Tennessee as well. Yeahy also, I mean again
Speaker 1: he's got he's got a trouble pass all that type
Speaker 1: of good stuff, which is actually bad stuff. But like,
Speaker 1: they need a dude that can I mean, Tennessee's so boring.
Speaker 1: They don't have any to dude. They need a dude.
Speaker 1: They need a guy who's gonna be on Sports Center
Speaker 1: and make crazy plays and win games for him and stuff.
Speaker 1: They don't have that. Yeah, I think that's that was
Speaker 1: one of those teams that we saw in h in
Speaker 1: a week it was a week two or that we
Speaker 1: are week three that we went to it was week two,
Speaker 1: was a week two? Was Delaney Walker? He kicked him
Speaker 1: up and down the field. That's right. I mean the
Speaker 1: Cowboys dominated the game at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: but they didn't have anybody, no weapon. They were throwing
Speaker 1: to um some bum and Brandon Carr was beating him
Speaker 1: up in the back of the end zone. They don't
Speaker 1: have anybody that really strikes fear in your heart. I
Speaker 1: don't I don't disagree with Dave here. I think that
Speaker 1: the pick if you if you talk about the guy,
Speaker 1: give me the guy with some weapons. Give me a
Speaker 1: guy with some possessed I was arguing against it for
Speaker 1: Oakland last night, but now I'm sitting here saying, you
Speaker 1: just hitched your wagon, Marcus Mariota. You damn well better
Speaker 1: give him somebody fund to throw too. And if you
Speaker 1: want a receiver here that that would be the overwhelming pick, right.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's talking about a guy that Dane had
Speaker 1: him taking at thirty three, and the next guy's down
Speaker 1: there at least for me is Jalen Strong and Tyler
Speaker 1: Lockett and Devin Funches. He would seem like, this is
Speaker 1: the time where you take that route. This is a game.
Speaker 1: This is the guy that's got the zip. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is the guy that's got everything the bizarre. I
Speaker 1: mean you could see the combination now the problem you like,
Speaker 1: I say, it helps Mariota. But and we've seen this, Dane,
Speaker 1: and correct me if I'm wrong about about DGB. The
Speaker 1: inside routes, the things like that, the crossing routes, stuff
Speaker 1: like that that throws at Mariota is very good at
Speaker 1: making those things. Not so much's always down the field,
Speaker 1: but those inside type breaking routes, Did you Bill help
Speaker 1: him learn to throw it far? He will just trust me.
Speaker 1: And he is a player that Randy Moss point. He
Speaker 1: does need to get better, you know, understanding how to
Speaker 1: use his big body. Um. You know, we talk about
Speaker 1: the off field stuff a lot with DGB. He is
Speaker 1: also a very raw player on the field too. He is.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of areas where he needs to
Speaker 1: get better and realize how to use his full potential
Speaker 1: to be the talent that he can be, but the
Speaker 1: talent that the potentially upside. It's just so sky high
Speaker 1: with him. Maybe maybe Mariota, assuming he is the pick,
Speaker 1: because it's not we don't have it yet. But maybe
Speaker 1: Mary Mariota's a choir boy. Maybe he can keep him
Speaker 1: in line. You know, you talk about balancing your Captain
Speaker 1: America with your bad guy. I don't. I know. I
Speaker 1: need to know more about comic book heroes. I don't
Speaker 1: know much about him either myself. You call it, yeah,
Speaker 1: you said two faced this morning, that was that's a
Speaker 1: batman tatman. But but I said a bad guy. I'm
Speaker 1: not a Captain America fan. Is it a shocking statement?
Speaker 1: That's good? Then you don't like Byron Jones America. It
Speaker 1: looks like it looks like the Rams and the Panthers
Speaker 1: have made a trade here that pick with the Ram seven. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that's the pick after after this, after this pick.
Speaker 1: So Carolina. I'm kind of scared right now because Carolina
Speaker 1: has come to from down at fifty seven. That's not good. Guys.
Speaker 1: They were right there from the Cowboys. One thing with Tennessee,
Speaker 1: they've done a lot of work on Doryl Greenbeckham. They
Speaker 1: have Okay, let's go kick Garrison to the commissioner. Tennessee
Speaker 1: Titans selection. Please welcome from Eastern Washington University a second
Speaker 1: round draft pick in two thousand and five offensive tackle
Speaker 1: Michael Ruse. Who know, With the fortieth pick in the
Speaker 1: NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans select dori Old Greenbeckel and
Speaker 1: there we go. Hey day, he had it seven picks
Speaker 1: before me. I just it's just, you know, I think
Speaker 1: it goes in both of your both of the wind
Speaker 1: column for the both arts. Well, that's why we got
Speaker 1: you both on here and paying you big money to
Speaker 1: do this. I wish you were paying. Are you getting money?
Speaker 1: It's it's something that makes sense both from a talent perspective,
Speaker 1: and with these character guys. Again, at some point it's
Speaker 1: just the risk is worth the reward right around forty Yeah,
Speaker 1: with that, with that talent, right around four if this
Speaker 1: was if he had Byron Jones's backstory, he would have
Speaker 1: been a top twenty pick, right that I mean, am
Speaker 1: I not good? He would have got to play football
Speaker 1: this year and we'd have type of a better player
Speaker 1: at the right point. That's a very good point. Well
Speaker 1: that was, you know, and again that I think everything
Speaker 1: that we said is absolutely right about that. So we
Speaker 1: now move on. Will we be surprised if we were wrong? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And this is okay, we have a trade up. So
Speaker 1: with forty one, the Rams moved up a whole heck
Speaker 1: of a lot. Well they actually at Carolina to the Rams. Yeah, Carolina,
Speaker 1: Carolina gave up a whole heck of a lot. Yeah
Speaker 1: to move up. And Dane, I'll get that from me
Speaker 1: here in a second. Let me just read off to
Speaker 1: you the Carolina Panthers needs. We've seemed to have uh
Speaker 1: done a pretty good job of of falling along and
Speaker 1: being right along with them what they need to do.
Speaker 1: I'm scrolling down as we speak. I got you here
Speaker 1: if you want to let me go for it right here.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of like the I feel good about okay. Uh.
Speaker 1: They talked about offensive towns, safety wide receiver is a
Speaker 1: possibility of the three. Last night Carolina took a Shack
Speaker 1: Thompson outside linebacker from Washington surprize and a lot of
Speaker 1: people yes, which surprised a lot of people. So again,
Speaker 1: offensive tackle, safety wide receiver would be the top three.
Speaker 1: Let me need let me throw out a curveball. I'm
Speaker 1: about running back John and Stewart's back, but they lost
Speaker 1: Angelo Williams. Could they potentially go running back here if
Speaker 1: they they see a guy worth going up to get
Speaker 1: like a Tevin Coleman, Because we look at it, who's
Speaker 1: picking up forty two Atlanta right who we thought Tevin Coleman.
Speaker 1: That could be a possibility. So maybe getting in front
Speaker 1: of Atlanta just throwing them out there curveball. As we
Speaker 1: look at the war room cam, Jerry Jones has got
Speaker 1: his chair tilted. He and Jason Garrett are having discussions.
Speaker 1: They are facing what is their draft board right now
Speaker 1: as you see Stephen Jones there to his left. Also,
Speaker 1: they're trying to plot and plan how this is gonna
Speaker 1: get to them. They're still sitting there at the bottom
Speaker 1: of the board at sixty and a long way to
Speaker 1: go before maybe that we see Jerry start putting pen
Speaker 1: to paper, or maybe their guy in fact is coming
Speaker 1: down the board to them, and they're just gonna sit
Speaker 1: tight and see what happens. So it looks like the
Speaker 1: Carolina pick is in. They are in a break right now,
Speaker 1: and we'll get it when we get back. One thing
Speaker 1: with Tennessee. Sorry to go back to that, but talk
Speaker 1: about just two opposite spectrums here with Marcus Mariota and
Speaker 1: then DGB I mean just the high character the highest
Speaker 1: of high character guy and then Doyle Greenbeckham with a
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of issues, a lot of immaturity,
Speaker 1: his baggage is gonna come with him to Tennessee. So
Speaker 1: it's gonna be very interesting to see how that plays out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it should be. But again, it's an explosive type of
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a weapon, right, and it's something that
Speaker 1: that and Dave hit the nail on the head. They
Speaker 1: did not have a bunch of pizzazz that offense. That's
Speaker 1: a guy like you're gonna go I mean, maybe maybe
Speaker 1: depending on his background, but like you would buy that
Speaker 1: guy's jersey, which you can't say that about very many
Speaker 1: other guys on Tennessee's offense. We talked about an offensive
Speaker 1: tackle here at Carolina. We've uh, you know, potentially anybody
Speaker 1: scared that it's you know, but Dave, you threw a
Speaker 1: running back out scared out there, and I don't like
Speaker 1: the way it feels. No, we're not going to bring
Speaker 1: That would be their fourth need though. That would be Stewart. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Stewart is that they have Stewart. They lost Angela Williams. Again,
Speaker 1: we have to look at who's picking forty two. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and with that being Atlanta, that's kind of yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: that's Stewart Whitaker going on Toddman A long way to
Speaker 1: jump to get it. I think it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: running back. That's just that's what That's the first thing
Speaker 1: that came in my mind when they moved up in
Speaker 1: front of Atlanta as a running back? What if? What if?
Speaker 1: What if? You're about to be really unha? Okay, let's
Speaker 1: go through who would be your best who would be
Speaker 1: your best offensive tackle left on the boarding? Okay, Clemmings
Speaker 1: would be the best running back. Your best running back
Speaker 1: would be cry Tevin Coleman. And then tell you who's
Speaker 1: your best wide receiver available Strong, Jalen Strong. Those are
Speaker 1: all three guys that you've got a lot of love
Speaker 1: his first round picks, you know, and they're I mean,
Speaker 1: they're sitting here atty one. See, I think you have
Speaker 1: to say, okay, out of that group. Out of the group.
Speaker 1: He just said, I think Coleman would be my best
Speaker 1: option of the players that that I would consider, you know,
Speaker 1: I think that's where I would you know, if you're
Speaker 1: asking me what direction I would go in, I'm sam
Speaker 1: I would say Coleman. I mean, I mean, what do
Speaker 1: y'all I think Coleman's better than Yelden. That's just me.
Speaker 1: Clemingso is a good I don't know what's wrong with Clemings.
Speaker 1: I there must be something medically roughing there and we're
Speaker 1: and we're it's like, it's just like Collins. Collins is
Speaker 1: off a lot of people's boards now, So you're gonna
Speaker 1: have that in your first round. Clemings was a guy
Speaker 1: that we talked about even all the way back to
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, about the best, some of the best,
Speaker 1: the best, who is the best player here type of
Speaker 1: thing at the sea. And I know Dane was talking
Speaker 1: about Clemings a bunch. It probably didn't have the greatest
Speaker 1: of senior bulls. But you know, if you watch throw
Speaker 1: on the Duke tape, it's just amazing watching him play football.
Speaker 1: It's just fun. But again, the injury, I think there
Speaker 1: could be something. There is something there. That's the reason
Speaker 1: there is something there. Okay, well again, it looks like
Speaker 1: the picks in they're back. Let's see if they go
Speaker 1: here soon, to the UH, to the commissioner. They have not,
Speaker 1: So we'll sit here and visit some more. But I
Speaker 1: think again, these needs teams are dressing their needs very
Speaker 1: early in this Browns just moving back. They were at
Speaker 1: forty three. They just moved back with Houston, so Houston
Speaker 1: would be coming up. Houston got jumped for a running
Speaker 1: back yesterday, if I remember right, they did. So let's see, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a that's behind. I mean, we still we still
Speaker 1: got Gregory are still on the board. I mean, I
Speaker 1: know we're talking about needs, but those two players to
Speaker 1: be getting into the forties and those two like something
Speaker 1: like Gregory, so this many people are scared of him.
Speaker 1: Something's up that I don't think I want any part
Speaker 1: of Well, you're not you're not letting that they're if
Speaker 1: they're passing him in the if they're passing him in
Speaker 1: the first round, they're gonna probably pass him in the
Speaker 1: in the second round. And nobody's really comfortable taking that
Speaker 1: particular player right now. But I'm worried that the Cowboys
Speaker 1: are going to be comfortable doing it, which I don't.
Speaker 1: But you are more You're far more comfortable at sixty
Speaker 1: than you are at twenty seventy. Okay, the commissioner's commissioner's
Speaker 1: walking to the podium. Let's go. This would be the
Speaker 1: U This would be the Carolina Panthers selection from the
Speaker 1: Rams traded the forties forty first pick to the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 1: To announce the Carolina Panthers selection, Please welcome from the
Speaker 1: University of Notre Dame, selected in the second round of
Speaker 1: the nineteen ninety draft, defensive back Pat Terrell. With the
Speaker 1: forty first pick of the two thousand and fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers select Devin Funches, wide receiver University. Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, Devin Funches. That's interesting. Huge for my desire
Speaker 1: to draft a running back at sixty That's all I mean.
Speaker 1: I'm here to keep a Cowboys focus boy. That's interesting,
Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah? We talked about team needs and wide
Speaker 1: receiver being one of them. Cam Newton get the ball
Speaker 1: last year? You know, do you feel like you feel
Speaker 1: like Carolina just overreacted a little bit there, Like maybe
Speaker 1: they needed to trade up to get Funches? But did
Speaker 1: they need to trade up that far? I don't know, Dan,
Speaker 1: what do you think? It is interesting? Devin Funches is
Speaker 1: such a wild card because on paper, will they play
Speaker 1: it tied in? Well? That's that's the other thing. Where
Speaker 1: what position? Is he having a pretty good time? On paper?
Speaker 1: He looks like a top twenty pick. He looks like
Speaker 1: a player that is going to be a mismatch night
Speaker 1: mayor in the NFL. But you turn the tape on,
Speaker 1: it just does not match up a player that drops
Speaker 1: a lot of balls. He just doesn't think. He doesn't
Speaker 1: play up to his size consistently. And again, where do
Speaker 1: you play him? At six four two thirty two. He
Speaker 1: was a former tight end moved outside to a wide
Speaker 1: receiver this past year. Each team is going to look
Speaker 1: at him differently, and so I think the Carolina Panthers
Speaker 1: see him more of it as an outside receiver, a
Speaker 1: guy that you know you can throw the ball up
Speaker 1: to against smaller corners be a mismatch nightmare. But again,
Speaker 1: a player that does have does have more hiccups than
Speaker 1: you want to see on tape. Yeah. I was impressed
Speaker 1: though the size, Yeah, absolutely yeah. And when he plays
Speaker 1: up to it, it is impressed. If you do get
Speaker 1: some goosebumps watching him, saying this could be a really
Speaker 1: good player, but I just didn't see him do it
Speaker 1: necessarily enough, consistently play up to his size. He only
Speaker 1: had a couple of touchdowns last year. Just really kind
Speaker 1: of disappointed. I know Devin Gardner wasn't the best quarterback,
Speaker 1: but see that, I mean I see that in the notes.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the Devin functious notes in verse notre Dame.
Speaker 1: I made a note that you'd like to see him
Speaker 1: be better at catching contested balls that size. I want
Speaker 1: to be able to he just doesn't do it consistently.
Speaker 1: Dane used the term tall trees to describe Jamis Winston situation.
Speaker 1: I'd say Cam Newton's got himself a couple now. And
Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin Greg Olsen for good measure. Okay, Atlanta is
Speaker 1: on the clock right now, they're at pick forty two.
Speaker 1: Atlanta's team needs. We talk about the Falcons and what
Speaker 1: they they have done, what they did in the first
Speaker 1: round last night, and let's see Atlanta Vic Beasley the
Speaker 1: defensive end from Clemson, so that takes out of the outside.
Speaker 1: Really the defensive end. Rusher, safety, cornerback, and guard would
Speaker 1: be the top three needs left for the Atlanta Falcons.
Speaker 1: And we talked about what safety means here. Safety I
Speaker 1: mean Various Randall and Landing Collins are gone. So it
Speaker 1: sounds like corners probably where your value is if you're
Speaker 1: looking for a second. Okay, then then let's focus on
Speaker 1: the corners. Then we got PJ. Williams is still on
Speaker 1: the board, Jalen Collins and Derby. Rank those three, who
Speaker 1: would you take if you're the land of Falcons out
Speaker 1: of those three? I would take Derby? Those three? Um,
Speaker 1: I think he has the speed that you want, the fluidity,
Speaker 1: the lower body explosion. Not a flawless player, obviously, it's
Speaker 1: why he's still here. Uh, some run, some hiccups and
Speaker 1: run defense. But a good player that can stick with receivers.
Speaker 1: Up and down the field day, fight for me, fight
Speaker 1: for Jalen Collins. If you can't, No, WHOA, I don't
Speaker 1: want to fight for Jalen Collins. I don't think he's
Speaker 1: that good. Is that okay? Do I have to fight
Speaker 1: for James? I mean, okay, the things you don't like
Speaker 1: about him, then he I mean, this is more Again.
Speaker 1: I'm not a scout. I'm not breaking down Taple, but
Speaker 1: you now what, you lum that watches him play. Quis
Speaker 1: started ten games. He lost his job to a true freshman.
Speaker 1: I just I don't remember. The most impressive play he
Speaker 1: ever made was chasing down Melvin Gordon in the open field. Yeah, hey,
Speaker 1: he was sort of fast on that play. He had
Speaker 1: a couple. He had a couple of good games. I
Speaker 1: don't know. And if you're drafting, if you're drafting Jayalen Collins,
Speaker 1: you're doing it on potential and the fact that he's
Speaker 1: about six two. I mean, you know he's got that.
Speaker 1: He's got that size and speed. I hate I don't
Speaker 1: want to compare him to the best cornerback in the
Speaker 1: game at all, but he's got that Richard Sherman build
Speaker 1: that teams are all about these days. If that's how
Speaker 1: you want to play, okay, But I don't Darby do
Speaker 1: anything for you. I don't see it. I would probably
Speaker 1: take one of the two Florida state guys because we
Speaker 1: talked about Jayalen Collins, and man, I love what he
Speaker 1: could be. Because you are talking about the size. Oh well,
Speaker 1: we got to pick. Coming up here, okay, Commissioners at
Speaker 1: the podium, the Atlanta Falcons selection. Please welcome from LSU,
Speaker 1: a seventh round pick in the nineteen ninety nine draft
Speaker 1: by the Falcons Center, Todd McClure. There you go, Tagan.
Speaker 1: With the second pick of the twenty fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons select Collins. Go Tigers, Jalen Collins. I
Speaker 1: love what he could be, the size and the speed,
Speaker 1: and I thought he had some ability and coverage. We'll
Speaker 1: let that side of the table talk about him, because
Speaker 1: I don't think anything nice. I want to love him.
Speaker 1: He went to my school, you know, I just I'd
Speaker 1: never I don't love him either. My biggest issue with
Speaker 1: him was I thought that when you got to like
Speaker 1: when you get to the point where it's we are
Speaker 1: making the catch, I didn't think his coverage was that
Speaker 1: bad when I was watching him. I just thought, when
Speaker 1: the ball is in the air and when the ball
Speaker 1: gets there, there's too much. For me, there was too
Speaker 1: much of a he was right there kind of guy,
Speaker 1: like you're not able to stop the guy from making
Speaker 1: the Yeah, it's not like he's getting burned, he's just
Speaker 1: not making the play. Yeah. And I thought that was
Speaker 1: frustrating for a guy that you see the physical potential
Speaker 1: and what people would like about him. I don't want
Speaker 1: to I don't want to spend a top forty ish
Speaker 1: pick on potential that you haven't really seen. Great keep
Speaker 1: pushing guys down the play I think. I think you're
Speaker 1: also getting a player that could play either side of
Speaker 1: the field, and I also could play in the slot
Speaker 1: that's might would be at Lanta, Mike. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: no looking He's an athletic guy. Like, I'm not saying
Speaker 1: he's got no chance to be successful, But based on
Speaker 1: what I've seen, I never loved him. Yeah, ten and
Speaker 1: ten games started right. A little part of me will
Speaker 1: always love him because he's a Tiger. But I get
Speaker 1: to see him next year. There's another player you get
Speaker 1: to see. I would not want him. Hey Byron Jones
Speaker 1: is fine with me. I'll take Byron. Take Byron Jones.
Speaker 1: We talked about it earlier. This is on the clock.
Speaker 1: Now it's Houston traded up with tet with the Browns here,
Speaker 1: so the Houston Texans now owned the forty third pick
Speaker 1: here in the in the draft. Uh, in the first
Speaker 1: round they add a fourth and a six. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: in the in the sixteenth pick over all the first
Speaker 1: they took Kevin Johnson. So let's see that takes a
Speaker 1: corner out of play here. Outside linebacker. Inside linebacker is
Speaker 1: a need and then potentially a wide receiver. So if
Speaker 1: you look at the team needs, it sounds like to
Speaker 1: be linebacker is the prevalent. So you think this is
Speaker 1: a linebacker. So we talked last night, Well we talked
Speaker 1: about inside outside. We I mean, we heard people say
Speaker 1: last night that running back was something that Houston might
Speaker 1: considered to spie Arian Foster. We don't feel that way.
Speaker 1: What about receiver? I see, I'll fight for anything you
Speaker 1: want to fight for here. I think, like you said, again, well,
Speaker 1: the Christians walked on, So here we go. We don't
Speaker 1: have time. Texans got it in forty third pick to
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans to announce the Houston Texans selection please
Speaker 1: welcome from Mississippi State University, a second round pick in
Speaker 1: the nineteen ninety eight draft, defensive back Eric Brown urs
Speaker 1: Fred Smoot in jail with the pick in the twenty
Speaker 1: fifteen NFL Draft, with the Houston Texans select McKinney. Is
Speaker 1: it all right? That's two picks in a row where
Speaker 1: the guy making the pick went to the same school.
Speaker 1: That's gotta be a coincidence, right, that's not I don't
Speaker 1: think they're doing it on perfect I don't think. I
Speaker 1: don't know. The league is great, but I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's that great. But the team would adjust in
Speaker 1: the draft for him to accommodate the NFL. After I listen,
Speaker 1: this is who's announcing the pick. You gotta take one
Speaker 1: from that school. That's Erie is saying. Mohammed and Tuggle
Speaker 1: are the starters and inside linebacker for the Texans if
Speaker 1: they played tomorrow. But now they got McKinney, the physical
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, mic linebacker. I was talking to some coaches
Speaker 1: here about him. Could even think about putting his hand
Speaker 1: on the ground and letting him rush a little bit
Speaker 1: super thump. Yeah, So the can I just spent a
Speaker 1: hot take and just I'm just putting it out there.
Speaker 1: I'm glad he's gone because I didn't want the Cowboys
Speaker 1: to take him, and now I don't have to worry
Speaker 1: about I'm with him. Yeah, so this is one of
Speaker 1: those guys you fake throw your pin like. Oh, I'm
Speaker 1: just like damn yeh shucks, damn. We can't have Kyle
Speaker 1: Wilber Oh crap. Oh no, Like, I don't like the
Speaker 1: idea of a guy who's like us. Maybe sometimes we'll
Speaker 1: play him at defensive end, like, no, be good at
Speaker 1: one thing. I don't know. I'm with you. I feel
Speaker 1: like I, oh, Bernardo McKinney an apology. For as much
Speaker 1: as bad as I've talked about him, I just don't
Speaker 1: see a player that, um I can trust in space.
Speaker 1: He is uh. He does have talent downhill against the run,
Speaker 1: he can't pass rush a little bit, but I just
Speaker 1: don't feel great about him in any type of space. Jeff,
Speaker 1: would you like to say anything positive about the young man? Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's some positive. I think that the positive is a
Speaker 1: lot of that downhill stuff. You know, if you want
Speaker 1: a guy that's gonna line up in the middle of
Speaker 1: the field and he's gonna come down. He's gonna be
Speaker 1: an old school guy that's gonna take on blockers in
Speaker 1: the hole, and he's gonna be strong against the run. Sure, sure,
Speaker 1: I see that in him. I think there was a
Speaker 1: little bit of Stefan Anthony who went in the first round.
Speaker 1: I thought there was a little bit of that in
Speaker 1: him in terms of if it's in a straight line,
Speaker 1: you can make that play and computer right there because
Speaker 1: of that, Thank you, Brian. Yeah, it's the same way.
Speaker 1: You know, if you're not playing in a straight line,
Speaker 1: the game is a little more difficult for the guy
Speaker 1: I think not a very stressed looking Cowboys draft room. Right, Well,
Speaker 1: I tell you what. Okay, So before we started this round,
Speaker 1: I went to the Twitter verse and I sent out
Speaker 1: six names, and I said, this is why if I'm
Speaker 1: the GM, I just sit there calmly and watch. Sure,
Speaker 1: because there's six names on the board, then I'm comfortable with. Okay,
Speaker 1: Yelden and and McKinney and the group. So they're gone,
Speaker 1: I've still got four. I've still got Merrick Kendricks on
Speaker 1: the board. I've still got Duke Johnson, Tevin Coleman, and
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory. So at this point, I don't think there's
Speaker 1: any there's any pains. Let me go around the room
Speaker 1: real quick, though, said the piggyback off. What you said,
Speaker 1: is Randy Gregory the last guy that you would be
Speaker 1: comfortable taking of. I mean, and maybe this is the
Speaker 1: wrong way to ask this question, but is he the
Speaker 1: I'm okay, I know you're not okay. If he's at sixty,
Speaker 1: I feel a lot better about it. Okay, him taking
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory or say taking Coleman or I'll take my
Speaker 1: running back now, because I tell you I want the
Speaker 1: running back man. And like maybe I'm I'm not like
Speaker 1: a super educated football guy because I just want the
Speaker 1: flashy but I want the beastly, badass running back I want.
Speaker 1: I'm starting to get worried about Gregory because of this,
Speaker 1: because of where we are in the draft and what
Speaker 1: David's been saying all night, Like the further the more
Speaker 1: teams that are wanting to pass on him twice, but
Speaker 1: go through the whole round. You saw him go through
Speaker 1: the first round. Now right now there's a bunch of
Speaker 1: teams pass on him again. Well, it's because there's it's
Speaker 1: more than just the failed drug test. It's a lack
Speaker 1: of daisical attitude, a single block by tight ends. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: I'm just you know, there's there's a lot of things
Speaker 1: that turned off teams to Randy Gregory besides the failed
Speaker 1: drug test. So you look on the field as well.
Speaker 1: The weight. You know, can he sustain comfortably two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty pounds that's a big question mark. But at
Speaker 1: some point, again we talked about it with dgbuh, We'll
Speaker 1: talk about it with some more of these character guys.
Speaker 1: At some point the risk is worth the possible reward.
Speaker 1: And so where is that in this draft. It's hard
Speaker 1: to put a number on it. If you were to
Speaker 1: write it out on a list of pros and cons,
Speaker 1: the pros would be he's got a boatload of potential
Speaker 1: and he's cheap at the where he would go. And
Speaker 1: the cons are like, you don't know how much he
Speaker 1: cares about football. You don't know if he can stay
Speaker 1: out of trouble, You don't know if he can handle
Speaker 1: the work. Well, you don't know when he's gonna get
Speaker 1: popped for a drug test and be suspended. You don't
Speaker 1: know if he's ever gonna meet that potential. You don't
Speaker 1: know how he fits your scheme. You guys convinced me
Speaker 1: that we don't need to take him this. I don't
Speaker 1: want him, I never have. It's it just depends who
Speaker 1: else is there. And you know that's really what depends
Speaker 1: when they take him in twenty in an hour. Now
Speaker 1: like this is gonna be like I just said that,
Speaker 1: and now I feel bad, Like this is I don't
Speaker 1: want I don't want him. Cowboys prob people out there
Speaker 1: didn't feel the same way you do. Yeah, but you
Speaker 1: just but did these guys feel But that's I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They took a shot on on Kevin Hardy, greb Greg Hardy.
Speaker 1: Kevin Hardy was an old, long time linebacker. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: he took on Greg Hardy. Yeah, that's an looked at
Speaker 1: me like, who the hell's kid linebacker Jackson? We gotta
Speaker 1: pick up Okay, Yeah, this should be the New Orleans
Speaker 1: Saints election. Yeah, here we go, Saints. I'm sorry, welcome
Speaker 1: from the universe. Take Gregory and not making our process.
Speaker 1: Second round draft pick in two thousand and three by
Speaker 1: the Saints offensive tackle scomb Georgia. That's what they're saying,
Speaker 1: pick tick, that's a good pick. The Bulldog putty four
Speaker 1: pick in the two thousand and fifteen NFL draft, the
Speaker 1: New Orleans sayings, select, Holy kikha, your boy. There's one
Speaker 1: I like, that's your boy. There's one I actually really like.
Speaker 1: All Right. I liked him better than Shack Thompson. We're
Speaker 1: on on every board now. If he had talk about acls,
Speaker 1: but he played all of last year healthy had an
Speaker 1: outstanding senior year. Keen Sacks is that good? The production
Speaker 1: was his outstanding, it really was. And so the resumes there.
Speaker 1: And he's one of these guys where you talk about
Speaker 1: the forty times, the traits, the athleticism is not necessarily though,
Speaker 1: but he knows how to. It's one of those things
Speaker 1: where we talked about with Nate Orchard. He doesn't have
Speaker 1: the traits that you want, but you have to look
Speaker 1: at the end result and the fact that he gets sacks.
Speaker 1: He makes plays in the backfield, and it just the
Speaker 1: highlights are impressive. Talk about him there, young scout. I
Speaker 1: just I thought when we watched him, you know, the
Speaker 1: ability to beat offensive tackles inside and out. You know,
Speaker 1: you talk about a forty time and then you talk
Speaker 1: about you turn on the tape and you watch him
Speaker 1: play on the tape, he looks faster than you're trying to.
Speaker 1: Then the combine would tell me that he is when
Speaker 1: he lines up in sprints. You put him on a
Speaker 1: football field, and I just thought there was multiple ways
Speaker 1: that he was able to beat people, which is a
Speaker 1: quarter absolutely. Yeah, that's where I saw a guy when
Speaker 1: he was rushing up the field. He had counter moves.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of these guys to just try and
Speaker 1: beat you. This guy's swat, swim, this guy's ripped, this
Speaker 1: guy's bull this guy's dip this. He's got an idea,
Speaker 1: he's got a plan when he wants to go to
Speaker 1: the quarter. He's a good kid. I talked to him
Speaker 1: last summer before this year, and he he just he's
Speaker 1: a joy to talk to, a really engaging individual. So
Speaker 1: I think, you know, the Saints want to get that
Speaker 1: pass rusher. They got a heck of a one here
Speaker 1: if he can stay healthy. You know what I forgot
Speaker 1: about I completely when the Saints did that deal to
Speaker 1: send Kenny Still to Miami, they got Danielle Ellerby in exchange. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you get Anthony last night and Ellerby to be
Speaker 1: your you know, your middle guys. And now a hell
Speaker 1: of the outside rusher for them. That's okay. Rob Bryan's
Speaker 1: probably pretty pumped. He has to be very pumped bad.
Speaker 1: We like the player. We all agree that. Okay, that
Speaker 1: means the Minnesota Vikings are now on the clock. I
Speaker 1: think this has to be I think this has to
Speaker 1: be linebacker. You think so they want a linebacker. They
Speaker 1: wanted a linebacker badly. And if it's a linebacker, I'm
Speaker 1: losing my guy. I bet you might be, because McKinney's
Speaker 1: off the board. All right, Yeah, we know that's not it. Dawson.
Speaker 1: I don't think this might be for him. So I
Speaker 1: think we're Summer wants a run, hit guy that can
Speaker 1: get they can get to the football side. Here we go.
Speaker 1: Sounds off Commission UCLA. Maybe right much to announce the
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings selection. Please welcome from the University of Maryland,
Speaker 1: a second round draft pick in two thousand and three
Speaker 1: by the Vikings linebacker E. J. Henderson, and the two
Speaker 1: thousand and fifteen NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings select Eric Kendricks.
Speaker 1: Great job, Dave Brugler. They're coming after my guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: after our guys. Vikings have been they were eyeing this
Speaker 1: second round pick to get that linebacker. McKinney went. They
Speaker 1: stayed at forty five, and they got a heck of
Speaker 1: a linebacker. That's great value, isn't it forty five for
Speaker 1: that we're talking about my first round for sure. Boy,
Speaker 1: that is a good football player. That's a player that
Speaker 1: conceivably could have gone at twenty seven depending on how
Speaker 1: the first round played out. Yeah, you know, and talking
Speaker 1: to some people with the Cowboys, he was a guy
Speaker 1: that that name the coach is really really liked. In
Speaker 1: matter of fact, they sent to Mattie Reflus, a linebacker
Speaker 1: coach now out to Westwood to work him out. This
Speaker 1: guy's got a real nose for the football. And that's
Speaker 1: what Mike zimmer I, you know, working with Mike and
Speaker 1: being around Mike a bunch. He's gonna want guys that
Speaker 1: could run. He's gonna want guys that get hit. He's
Speaker 1: gonna want sure tacklers. This guy, man, when you put
Speaker 1: him on the move, he is very difficult to block.
Speaker 1: And he's also a good wrap up tackler. So I
Speaker 1: don't see a player at the FBS level with over
Speaker 1: one hundred solo tackles this year. Yeah, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: darnin pressive. I see you sweating over there on Twitter.
Speaker 1: I'm starting to you sound a real confident two picks ago,
Speaker 1: because because four of your guys were still there coming
Speaker 1: after I added a guy, we're down, I threw a
Speaker 1: new guy in who I threw, uh, threw Carl Davis
Speaker 1: into my group. Now, okay, the thing is is, I'm
Speaker 1: not saying you're wrong, but we're still fifteen picks away.
Speaker 1: You're a long way ago. A player that we're kind
Speaker 1: of surprised is still available. Jail and Strong Uh just tweeted,
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. Oh I feel fat.
Speaker 1: Maybe they watched Stevie Nelson against you. Yeah, maybe they
Speaker 1: watched the kid Jefferson too block. I love when y'all
Speaker 1: are mean. What about Marcus Peters? He did a nice
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters did another. J well, Jale Strong, I touchdown
Speaker 1: against Marcus Peters Corners. You know, corners heading ability to
Speaker 1: let's say, step their game up, don't act, don't act
Speaker 1: like the kid didn't have some rough games. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, And I gave m a second round grade.
Speaker 1: He's not a first round player. He's a second round player.
Speaker 1: And that's a big guy, can climb the ladder, can
Speaker 1: kind of possession guy. Yeah, and that's there's nothing wrong
Speaker 1: with that. You need those guys, especially in the red zone.
Speaker 1: Guys that are you're gonna box defenders out, use that
Speaker 1: length to catch the ball away from your body. He
Speaker 1: has those ball skills. So I think I still think
Speaker 1: we'll see Jalen Strong here, but I think too some
Speaker 1: news came out about his injury history. Might be something
Speaker 1: going on there, maybe why he's still on the board.
Speaker 1: So we talked about a lot of different things right here.
Speaker 1: It looks like to say San Francisco, we've talked about
Speaker 1: them on the clock. If you look at their team
Speaker 1: needs inside inside linebacker, guard, maybe some type of an
Speaker 1: interior defensive lineman. But they I think they dressed that
Speaker 1: we have another trade trade Philadelphia came up. Oh okay,
Speaker 1: so that's Philadelphia. They ain't taking a running back. They
Speaker 1: got eight of them. That's Philadelphia going to Miami is
Speaker 1: what that is. We talked about Miami as a destination
Speaker 1: for the Cowboys. That maybe could have been a pick
Speaker 1: that has had So here's a division rival going to
Speaker 1: Miami at forty seven. San Francisco has their card in
Speaker 1: right now. But I feel pretty confident in Philadelphia is
Speaker 1: not after somebody I want. I don't know, am I am?
Speaker 1: I righting that? Uh? Yeah I would I would think so, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would think that you would play run. They run
Speaker 1: different defensive schemes. They definitely don't need a running back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Armstead was their pick a last night. The defensive end
Speaker 1: from UH Oregon. So San Francisco, Oregon. Yeah, looking at
Speaker 1: inside linebacker, guard, a possibility corner, tied end, outside linebacker,
Speaker 1: and a wide receiver. So let's see what they in fact?
Speaker 1: Do you know San Francisco with Trent Baalky a new
Speaker 1: head coach there, So Trent Balky's really running uh this draft?
Speaker 1: You know Harball I believe had an influence and what
Speaker 1: was going on? Now? You know, Jim tom Seula, the
Speaker 1: head coach, is sitting there and enjoying a nice meal
Speaker 1: or two while trimp Balky picks his team for him.
Speaker 1: So Jim tom Seula just looks like a guy that
Speaker 1: I would get a beer with. He just, oh, he's
Speaker 1: a fun guy. He's an NFL. He's an NFL, NFL
Speaker 1: europe guy. So yeah, I mean the Eagles trading out
Speaker 1: the forty seven. I talked about at twenty how Byron
Speaker 1: Jones was an option for them because Chip Kelly wants
Speaker 1: that big defensive back moving up to forty seven for
Speaker 1: the Eagles, maybe for like an Eric Row type size. Right,
Speaker 1: it's he missed out on I mean he had a
Speaker 1: chance to take Jones. He didn't take Jones. There was
Speaker 1: thought that maybe he would try and take a guy
Speaker 1: that could play as a safety. They had they added
Speaker 1: two corners Uh during off season, so could they use
Speaker 1: I think you, I think you're onto something Dame with Row,
Speaker 1: just because remember I'm trying to get you to play.
Speaker 1: Remember I kiss kept arguing with you about potentially play
Speaker 1: him as a safety. Sure, I thought maybe they would
Speaker 1: do the same thing with Uh with Row claim at safety.
Speaker 1: So I think you might be. With so few safety
Speaker 1: options in this draft, you just can't rule it out.
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to keep him a corner, right,
Speaker 1: I think he can do that. I think that's where
Speaker 1: he might be best. But again, with so few safety options,
Speaker 1: you cannot rule out an Eric If that's what if
Speaker 1: he is the pick for Philadelphia forty seven? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: the again San Francisco forty nine Ers were waiting for
Speaker 1: their selection to go in the Eagles. Uh, they make
Speaker 1: a jump from fifty two to forty seven. We talked about, UH,
Speaker 1: this pick could potentially have been traded if the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: you know, wanted to maybe go up at Miami. UH
Speaker 1: was in fact available to be there for the trade.
Speaker 1: So let's go to the podium right now and see
Speaker 1: with San Francisco pick. To announce the San Francisco forty
Speaker 1: nine ers selection, Please welcome from James Madison University, a
Speaker 1: fourth round draft pick in nineteen eighty six by the
Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers, defensive end and newest member
Speaker 1: of the Hall of Fame Charles Hanley. In two thousand
Speaker 1: fifteen draft, the San Francisco for the nine select Johaski
Speaker 1: Tart defensive backs Stamford whoa again talking about those safeties.
Speaker 1: You gotta get him early and with Tart, this is
Speaker 1: a player where you hope he's a lot better two
Speaker 1: years down the road than what he is right now
Speaker 1: because he's just very, very raw. You have a lot
Speaker 1: to work with. Their a small school player. He was
Speaker 1: Jimmy Ward's teammate and in high school, a player that
Speaker 1: he was he's new to the game, didn't he only
Speaker 1: played one year in high school, goes to Stamford, and
Speaker 1: he really was a playmaker for that defense. You have
Speaker 1: a lot to work with here. But again, I think
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a big transition for him, a big
Speaker 1: jump up. And we saw a little bit of that
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl and you see it on tape. But
Speaker 1: he does make some splash plays, but he does miss
Speaker 1: some plays too, So a lot of potential here. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure you see it from day one, though, how
Speaker 1: how scale one to ten? You you are the guru,
Speaker 1: I defer to you. How surprised are you see him here?
Speaker 1: Not too surprised because the fact we talked about the safeties.
Speaker 1: You gotta get him early, So not too surprised. Although
Speaker 1: top fifty is pretty early for him. I think, well,
Speaker 1: how about sample somebody like that I Louisville. Well, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying a guy. I mean to me, Sample's
Speaker 1: a better player the kid from Louisville. If you're talking
Speaker 1: about a strong safety, a guy that could cover a
Speaker 1: little bit, a blow him up type of a guy,
Speaker 1: I think I'm sample more than this kid. I think
Speaker 1: that it's an interesting corollary to Dallas. I mean, we
Speaker 1: were talking about leading into the draft. You know, you
Speaker 1: made you want Duke Johnson at sixty you hope he's there.
Speaker 1: That maybe seems too early for a lot of other people,
Speaker 1: but you get your guy. You like the way he's valued. Obviously,
Speaker 1: you know, they feel a lot better. The forty nine
Speaker 1: ers do feel a lot better about him at forty
Speaker 1: six than maybe a lot of other teams would. So
Speaker 1: you know, this is what kind of what Stephen Jones
Speaker 1: was alluding to, is that teams are gonna feel, you know,
Speaker 1: even largely different about players, and you know, just just
Speaker 1: because it seems early, you know, different teams have different opinions.
Speaker 1: And I forgot that I mentioned Jimmy word, not even
Speaker 1: connecting the two that now their teammates. They are teammates
Speaker 1: in high school and other teammates in the press, Jimmy
Speaker 1: might have walked into the draft room and helped them
Speaker 1: out a little bit. Yes, that's pretty cool. Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: that means that Philadelphia, the pick is in and the
Speaker 1: commissioner is walking to the podium. This is the Philadelphi Eagles.
Speaker 1: The Eagles the Miami Dolphins have traded the forty seventh
Speaker 1: pick to the Philadelphia Eagles. To announce the Philadelphia Eagles selection,
Speaker 1: please welcome from the University of Michigan. Selected in the
Speaker 1: fourth round in the nineteen ninety six draft, offensive tackle
Speaker 1: and congressman John Runner, Dan Congressman. With the forty seventh
Speaker 1: pick of the twenty fifteen NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles
Speaker 1: select Eric Rowe defensive back Q Tall. I just had
Speaker 1: a feeling about that as soon as the Eagles moved
Speaker 1: up safety play. I had Eric wrote to the Eagles
Speaker 1: in my mock draft, knowing that that there was that connection.
Speaker 1: As soon as Philadelphia moved up, you got the sense
Speaker 1: that they wanted to go up and get that safety
Speaker 1: or corner. You know, you know he can play both.
Speaker 1: I still think he's gonna I still think he's gonna
Speaker 1: play safety myself. That I just you know that again,
Speaker 1: you're you're talking. That's a team that was awful in
Speaker 1: the secondary last year and the year before. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: so and and and Chip Kelly knew that they lost
Speaker 1: football games last year because their inability to deny people
Speaker 1: from catching the football. Yeah, yeah, here's a guy. Dane
Speaker 1: talked about it. He's got the range he's got the size.
Speaker 1: I just think it's too good of a fit there
Speaker 1: for them. Uh you know, and and I know we've
Speaker 1: had a bunch of arguments about that. At the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: I was looking for a true free safety. I think
Speaker 1: the Eagles did find a true free safety. Even though
Speaker 1: I do like Randall the kid from from Arizona stay
Speaker 1: better than him. But you know, a tall guy like this,
Speaker 1: you gotta love everything about him and what he is.
Speaker 1: A year ago I would have said I would agree
Speaker 1: with you about safety, But what he showed me in
Speaker 1: this past year at corner, I feel good about keeping
Speaker 1: him there. Yeah. But you know, again, with so few
Speaker 1: safety options, would not be shocked at off. That's what
Speaker 1: the Eagles plan is, the plan of safety. Yeah, well
Speaker 1: that's gonna be the Philadelphia Eagles have made the trade
Speaker 1: and they did select Eric rowe h. He is the
Speaker 1: cornerback safety from from the University of Utah that puts
Speaker 1: the San Diego Chargers on the clock. And this will
Speaker 1: give us an opportunity to take just a little bit,
Speaker 1: well the picks in we'll take a break after San
Speaker 1: Diego's pick. The Commissioner's gonna walk to the podium here
Speaker 1: and give us pick. We'll take a break after that.
Speaker 1: But uh, let's talk about San Diego and what direction
Speaker 1: that the Chargers might go in. We talked about their
Speaker 1: first round and what they were able to do last night.
Speaker 1: They trade they're not gonna go running back. They're not
Speaker 1: gonna go running back though that would be interesting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So just uh, maybe some thoughts about what you might
Speaker 1: think with the Chargers here? Could they Could it be
Speaker 1: they need some offensive lineman for Philip Rivers? Do they not? Well?
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I mean that the guard tackle would
Speaker 1: be a probability there. Also talking about outside linebacker, a cornerback,
Speaker 1: a tight end, and those are all possibilities. Uh, linebacker again,
Speaker 1: an inside linebacker being a mentioned here. They lost uh
Speaker 1: you know, catch Kart is here now and then Walker
Speaker 1: has been their third and fourth of the past three seasons,
Speaker 1: so they failed to replace them. Who is your best
Speaker 1: linebacker left an inside linebacker? How about your boy from Miami?
Speaker 1: Perriman is the top one I've got left here? It
Speaker 1: would be Pairman and then Phil Dawson from TCU is
Speaker 1: talk talk a little bit, talk a little bit about
Speaker 1: a Perriman though, because he's an interesting player to me
Speaker 1: and the way he just runs all over the upper
Speaker 1: He's a thumper. He's one of those guys. He's another
Speaker 1: one of those guys if you want to call him
Speaker 1: old school or a throwback. He's sort of a squat
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna come downhill and he's gonna take guys
Speaker 1: on it, and he's gonna make plays on running back.
Speaker 1: He's gonna tackle with some violence to him. I thought
Speaker 1: he was okay also when you're not necessarily dropping him
Speaker 1: to cover deep or playing man coverage, but on crossers,
Speaker 1: it seemed like he's gonnaare football player coverage, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it seems you know. He seems like to me a
Speaker 1: very solid, at least two down linebacker. Yeah. I think
Speaker 1: the best way to describe him as a hammer looking
Speaker 1: for a nail. I mean, he wants to hit you
Speaker 1: and he brings it every time. He's short, but he's
Speaker 1: not small. He's very thick and he brings it. He
Speaker 1: brings his whole body when he tackles you. He drives
Speaker 1: his hips and his legs through his target. So just
Speaker 1: a very violent player. I think a lot of teams
Speaker 1: would love to have him on their squad. I tell you,
Speaker 1: I love the kid myself. Man, he might be short,
Speaker 1: but he is around the football. You never if you've
Speaker 1: turned on the tape, you don't have to ask what
Speaker 1: number he is because fifty two is always going to
Speaker 1: be in the pile. He's always gonna be around the ball.
Speaker 1: He's not dodging the block. No, And that mammy produces
Speaker 1: some good linebackers with that number. Huh two yeah, fifty two.
Speaker 1: I I just you know, San Diego. You got to
Speaker 1: think about the way that they play and all that.
Speaker 1: So you know the way they play defense and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, in their in their scheme and all that that,
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a very aggressive defense. They do
Speaker 1: a really really nice job with that three four package
Speaker 1: and stuff. This kid could be an inside linebacker, uh
Speaker 1: you know, and and and make a ton of plays
Speaker 1: if he's given that opportunity. I just like the fit
Speaker 1: there myself. Uh if he would be there? Anybody else though,
Speaker 1: strike his line? Who else did you have their? Jeff
Speaker 1: is Paul Dawson was my next one is Paul Dawson?
Speaker 1: See where do you have him? Dane? Where do you
Speaker 1: have like him? And Parriman? And is there anybody else
Speaker 1: that I'm missing that is a solid second Yeah, Dawson
Speaker 1: he's more of a second third uh, you know, early
Speaker 1: third round type. But with Dawson, similar to Gregory and
Speaker 1: these other guys turning turning you off yeause of the
Speaker 1: avoid he tries to. He's the opposite. Yeah, the opposite
Speaker 1: of Pairman, right exactly. And so yeah, with with Dawson,
Speaker 1: the instincts are off the charts. Uh, you see that
Speaker 1: on film. But again going back to uh, he just
Speaker 1: turned off coaches turned off. I mean his own coach
Speaker 1: Gary Patterson said, if he doesn't change his way as
Speaker 1: in the NFL, he's gonna be He's gonna be fined
Speaker 1: over and over and over. So what does that is?
Speaker 1: That up being late thing? What is it? What he
Speaker 1: means just not caring, not just allowing outside influences affect him. Well,
Speaker 1: here's here's the Chargers with the selection too, and we're
Speaker 1: thinking linebacker. Here there go Charger selection. Please welcome from
Speaker 1: the University of Tennessee, the fifteenth overall selection in the
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight draft by the Chargers wide receiver Anthony Miller.
Speaker 1: With the forty eight pick in the twenty fifteen draft,
Speaker 1: the San Diego Charger select Denzel Perman, linebacker Miami. Now
Speaker 1: there you go, there you go. See that's we thought
Speaker 1: along that the lines of a linebacker, a guy that
Speaker 1: can make plays a couple different one. They could have
Speaker 1: gone for Paul Dawson instead, they went for the guy
Speaker 1: I like to watch his highlight. That's violence that Dane
Speaker 1: was talking about, the hammer looking for a nail. This
Speaker 1: kid is always around the football. He's short, but he's tough.
Speaker 1: He's stout and on the move. He's very, very difficult
Speaker 1: to block. So I think it's a really really good
Speaker 1: selection there for the San Diego Chargers. Helps him inside
Speaker 1: for a group and the starting to watch struggled a
Speaker 1: little bit. Struggle, watch struggle, But okay, we're gonna take
Speaker 1: a little break here and then we will come back.

Speaker 1: Hellman joined here now by my second draft partner, Kevin
Speaker 1: Turner of one oh five three the fin Kevin, welcome
Speaker 1: to the Fray. Hey, thanks for having me in here.
Speaker 1: Good to have you here. We're in the middle of
Speaker 1: a lot of things. It looks like to me that
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs are on the clock right now.
Speaker 1: The Chiefs last night was able to address a draft
Speaker 1: to the corner Peters from Washington, John Dorsey, my old
Speaker 1: buddy from the Green Bay Packer days, looking to build
Speaker 1: his team along with Andy Reid. Take this for what
Speaker 1: it's worth, what you will. But I don't know. I
Speaker 1: this is not a concerned looking Cowboys war room. Jerry
Speaker 1: and Stephen Jones just wandered off screen. They're having They're
Speaker 1: having a conversation in Chris Hall's office. On the back,
Speaker 1: Charlotte Jones is laughing about something. So this doesn't look
Speaker 1: like the room that was kind of squirming around in
Speaker 1: their seats being terrified that their guy wasn't going to
Speaker 1: be there last night. So I don't know. Again, you can't.
Speaker 1: I mean, we have no idea what they're saying, but
Speaker 1: that they look very at ease. They do look very
Speaker 1: at ease, and you know, it could be a couple
Speaker 1: of different things though again, they could be the team
Speaker 1: that is comfortable taking the Nebraska Rush, ind could be
Speaker 1: taking Gregory and you know they knowing that they they're
Speaker 1: seeing this young man, we're all seeing it right now
Speaker 1: slide down the board and they think you gotta call
Speaker 1: it a free fall at this point. Well, yes, well
Speaker 1: we've been mean to these kids, some of them. We
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't be totally mean to them. But they look
Speaker 1: like that they're comfortable that Randy Gregory could potentially get
Speaker 1: to them, or maybe the running back we've talked about
Speaker 1: a bunch of different running backs and possibility Coleman being
Speaker 1: in the mix. This looks like a room that is
Speaker 1: comfortable that the guy they want, whoever it is, or
Speaker 1: a guy they want, will be there in sixty Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: Well we could talk about the Kansas City Chiefs now.
Speaker 1: They addressed their corner need last night with again with
Speaker 1: Peters the needs right now being a wide receiver, a
Speaker 1: center a possibility we talked. Dane was extensively talking about
Speaker 1: Irwin the center from Florida State. We've seen him kat
Speaker 1: at tackle and we've also seen him play some center
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, yeah, very good player. I was thinking
Speaker 1: with Kansas City, they'll, I know they signed Macklin in
Speaker 1: the off season. This might be a good spot wide
Speaker 1: receiver maybe and give another target, you know, maybe it's Lockett.
Speaker 1: Maybe that makes a lot of sense. I know, it
Speaker 1: might be a little early in the second round maybe,
Speaker 1: Jalen Strong, if the risk checks out. There's a couple
Speaker 1: of names that I think they need to help Alex
Speaker 1: Smith that a little bit, give them another a few targets. Yeah, Dane,
Speaker 1: any thought about you know again, the needs we look
Speaker 1: at receiver was mentioned, absolutely, Yeah, Jalen Strong. That we
Speaker 1: go back to. That is something going on with the wrist,
Speaker 1: is something that the injury a little bit more. And
Speaker 1: that looks like the commissioners walking. Yeah, let's see the
Speaker 1: commissioner's walking to the the podium hill to announce thee
Speaker 1: Kansas City chief selection. Please welcome from Baylor University, the
Speaker 1: tenth overall selection in the nineteen seventy seven draft by
Speaker 1: the Chiefs defensive back Gary Green Baylor University sick Em
Speaker 1: Barrass with the forty ninth pick, and the two thousand
Speaker 1: and fifteen NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs select right
Speaker 1: up the road Mitch Morris Center from Missouri. There. I
Speaker 1: like it Mitch Morris. Okay, he played tackle at Missouri.
Speaker 1: We've evaluated him as a tackle. I to me he
Speaker 1: was a center. I know you had him on the
Speaker 1: board as a city right and and that's all the
Speaker 1: tapes at at tackle though. Well, he did play a
Speaker 1: center as a sophomore and then he moved to right
Speaker 1: tackle as a junior, moved to left tackle as a senior.
Speaker 1: Um a player, you have that versatility. But I do
Speaker 1: see him as a legitimate player that can play all
Speaker 1: five offensive line spots. Yeah, I don't. I don't disagree. KT.
Speaker 1: We saw him playing left tackle, uh for the Missouri
Speaker 1: TI guy really light on his feet. Yeah yeah, And
Speaker 1: if that's ah, if that's the direction they wanted to go,
Speaker 1: I kind of like grass you a little bit more.
Speaker 1: But did you know no problem with that? You know
Speaker 1: we on our boarding we kind of had him like
Speaker 1: a five you know later on. But sure, if you
Speaker 1: need to fill that need, uh and they need that center.
Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, I have no problem with Mitch Moose right there.
Speaker 1: Good pick. If Dane look at their situation though, U
Speaker 1: last night, would you've taken Irving and then made something
Speaker 1: made a play for one of these corners that's on
Speaker 1: the board, a PJ. Williams or something like that, or
Speaker 1: or is this the route that you would have particularly gone.
Speaker 1: That's tough because they went Marcus Peters over irving two
Speaker 1: players that you think were in the generally the same area,
Speaker 1: and so they went with the with a better corner.
Speaker 1: Can't really fault them for that because they knew they
Speaker 1: could get Mitch Morse here in the second. So I'm
Speaker 1: okay with what they did, getting the talented corner at
Speaker 1: eighteen and then waiting getting Mitch Morse here. I feel
Speaker 1: really good. I feel really happy for Morris. He was
Speaker 1: one of the great uh just individuals people in this draft. Uh,
Speaker 1: Mitch Moore is going to a good, good spice of
Speaker 1: Texas kid too. Yeah. We have actually got a first
Speaker 1: here on night number two, which is a Buffalo Bills selection.
Speaker 1: There we go the Buffalo Bills. They were not in
Speaker 1: the first round, don't remember. It was part of the
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins right. Yeah, and here we go with the Bills.
Speaker 1: We I'm curious to see what this is. They got
Speaker 1: quarterback Bryce Petty, done a lot of work on them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was thinking fifty one might be a spot here.
Speaker 1: Here we go. Is it a Ryan to see fake out?
Speaker 1: Who knows? Let's see commissioners Danny a perty goo got
Speaker 1: the crowd misre ago, Oh oh oh, Jim Kelly wait
Speaker 1: to go? Okay. I was wondering why there was such
Speaker 1: a you know, ovation there, which totally makes sense. Kent
Speaker 1: was doing the very nice thing of letting Jim Kelly
Speaker 1: get some applause. So that's why he's a great executive
Speaker 1: producer for this program. That's a relate. That's a pretty
Speaker 1: cool moment right there, to announce the Buffalo Bill selection,
Speaker 1: please welcome from the University in Miami. Selected by the
Speaker 1: Bills is at fourteenth overall pick in the nineteen eighty
Speaker 1: three draft. Two thousand and two Hall of Fame inductee
Speaker 1: quarterback Jim Kelly, h thank you. If I could just
Speaker 1: take a second and thank everybody all over the world
Speaker 1: for especially my NFL family, for all your prayers this
Speaker 1: last year. Last year, this time I was in the
Speaker 1: hospital not knowing if I'd be here today because of
Speaker 1: all the prayers and the well wishes and the love
Speaker 1: of God for my NFL family. Thank you, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank God, bless you. All. Right, here we go with
Speaker 1: the fiftieth pick and the two thy fifteen NFL drag.
Speaker 1: We the Buffalo Bill select Ronald Darby defensive back, good pick. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: there we go Ronald Darby now going off the board.
Speaker 1: I like it a lot better than the potential Rice
Speaker 1: Petty pick. Yeah. Well, and that just shows you too.
Speaker 1: You had Jalen in that second round group of guys
Speaker 1: we've talked about. We had PJ. Williams, Jalen Collins, and
Speaker 1: now Darby. You like Darby more than PJ and go
Speaker 1: to the same school and played on the same national
Speaker 1: I gave Darby the edge, Did you really over PJ?
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we're talking about two second round players,
Speaker 1: so not a huge gap between two, right. I gave
Speaker 1: Darby the edge because of the speed. Yeah, I tell
Speaker 1: you what I like PJ. Williams. The thing about PJ
Speaker 1: Williams to me is that I like how when you
Speaker 1: play that press. I mean he's a grabber now, I
Speaker 1: mean he's a little bit of a grabber holder guy,
Speaker 1: but he is up on you and there's a lot
Speaker 1: of times you see him deny the football. So maybe
Speaker 1: you're right though, both second round type players on this
Speaker 1: on my particular board, and I know Katie same way. Yeah.
Speaker 1: With Darby, there's just no separation. You know, he's got
Speaker 1: to get his head on the ball and track the
Speaker 1: ball a little bit better, but there's just no separation.
Speaker 1: He runs with every wide receiver. Yeah. Let me ask
Speaker 1: you this, Dan. You closed the book on Gino Smith
Speaker 1: an hour or so ago. DJ Manuel speaking of Florida
Speaker 1: State players, Buffalo was interested in Petty. They met him
Speaker 1: in Dallas, tucked him out, but did not go that
Speaker 1: direction here. So I you know they brought in Castle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know he might be the starting quarterback. I bet
Speaker 1: you he is the starting quarterback at begin of the year.
Speaker 1: So EJ Manuel, I'm not betting too much on him
Speaker 1: this year. We might see more Matt Castle this year.
Speaker 1: From all right, let let's throw something out here. And
Speaker 1: I kind of had the run potentially where we could
Speaker 1: have seen we couldn't seen Bryce Petty go and we're
Speaker 1: getting shocked we haven't seen him. Yell, okay, we're seeing
Speaker 1: I think they am smart. It's just me, am, I
Speaker 1: am I Okay. The Browns are in now. We've got
Speaker 1: a Brown selection in about Please welcome from the University
Speaker 1: of Southern Mississippi. Nate Archer here. You think the twenty
Speaker 1: second overall pick of the nineteen eighty one draft by
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns defensive back Hanford Dixon. They knows all
Speaker 1: these Ohio guys. I'm gonna say, I'm gonna defer to
Speaker 1: mister Youngstown. With the first pick in the twenty fifteen draft,
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns select Nate Orchard, back or Utah. I
Speaker 1: feel like I've known this pick for about three months.
Speaker 1: Have you been sitting on it? They the Browns love
Speaker 1: what Nate Orchard can bring to their defense. They were
Speaker 1: all over them at the Senior Bowl. Um, and they've
Speaker 1: just the coaches, especially the coaches really like what he
Speaker 1: brings to the defense. Though he's gonna be uh outside
Speaker 1: linebacker for Mike Petton's defense, He's not gonna start. He'll
Speaker 1: be a sub package player. Jibals sheared left and free agency.
Speaker 1: This is kind of their answer to filling his shoes.
Speaker 1: So Nate Orchard who a lot of people. When we
Speaker 1: all started this draft. He was an early favorite at
Speaker 1: twenty seven. Obviously he dropped down after that a lot
Speaker 1: of people were talking about him as a first round pick. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he um, it's fine. They go within what probably ten
Speaker 1: picks of each other. Yeah, him and Kakaha tied for
Speaker 1: the leading sackson college football last year. So, I mean
Speaker 1: nineteen that's I mean, I don't know, you're you're doing
Speaker 1: something right. I mean, that's a that's an absurd amount
Speaker 1: of sacks for one college football season. Yeah, and I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what again, there was a lot of times
Speaker 1: though where you saw sacks where Katie where it was
Speaker 1: like if it was clean, you know, if he was
Speaker 1: gonna make that sack. But there was times where he
Speaker 1: would also get hooked up on guys and stuff and
Speaker 1: get washed out of the play, get knocked wide, not
Speaker 1: really play with much power, you know, around the edge.
Speaker 1: As far as one of these guys that they were
Speaker 1: talking about as an elite rusher, Yeah, the guy that
Speaker 1: might need to put on a little bit away, just
Speaker 1: a little bit, and you know, as a guy is
Speaker 1: sometimes to me, I saw a guy would kind of
Speaker 1: be taken out of the game just a little bit,
Speaker 1: and then you'd seem shine for a few players and
Speaker 1: then you'd kind of seem disappear a little bit. Yeah, um,
Speaker 1: good player. That's probably about where he thought he'd go too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I Dolphins are now up and they're they've made the moving.
Speaker 1: Here we're going, can't. We got the Dolphins on the clock,
Speaker 1: and there's no time for our nonsense. Nineteen eighty eight
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame inductee offensive lineman Dwight Stevenson, thank you.
Speaker 1: With the fifty second pick in the NFL twenty fifteen draft,
Speaker 1: the Mammy Dolphins select Jordan Phillips, defensive tackle Oklahoma, another
Speaker 1: another early favorite for twenty seven and the Cowboys that
Speaker 1: kind of dropped down the board. Here's a team, though,
Speaker 1: the Dolphins. We've always talked about their their defensive line
Speaker 1: in the front seven that they had that was a
Speaker 1: pretty formable group in the last see maybe one of
Speaker 1: the strength. And here they add Jordan Phillips. To me,
Speaker 1: a little bit of a boom or bust type of
Speaker 1: player here, I think more bust than boom. You know,
Speaker 1: just watching him play, you just said we should be nicer,
Speaker 1: like five minutes ago. I just think you'd be nicer
Speaker 1: and be honest, be honestly nice, nice and be nice
Speaker 1: and yeah and unhonest. Okay, but yeah, I think there's
Speaker 1: some things about this player that's very inviting. You know,
Speaker 1: the size there's I mentioned it. There's times you see
Speaker 1: him getting the gap, get up the field, beat block
Speaker 1: all those things that you want to see in a
Speaker 1: defensive lineman, and then you see guys that are clearly
Speaker 1: not as good as him block him one on one
Speaker 1: for long stretches of the game. So the Dolphins, you know,
Speaker 1: feelt like, you know, here's a guy that everybody had
Speaker 1: his potential first round talent, and now they get him
Speaker 1: at the fifty second pick. Uh, so you know, we'll
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. You play him next to Sue, right,
Speaker 1: and then uh, he's got a you know, he's got
Speaker 1: a little bit of a bad back situation too. It
Speaker 1: was a little concerning, right right, I just like I said,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Sue, there's no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: They went out and they made a big play. They
Speaker 1: got Sue. That makes them, I think, inside even more difficult,
Speaker 1: especially with what the edge rushers they have that I
Speaker 1: just wondered if this guy, you know again, he's boom
Speaker 1: or bust. I'm thinking more bust. That's just me. I
Speaker 1: just I just just too many times, too many times
Speaker 1: where I just didn't see him totally play all out
Speaker 1: like I thought he needed to be so Okay, well,
Speaker 1: now that puts uh Cincinnati on the clock, Dane. Last
Speaker 1: night Cincinnati uh went offensive lineman with a booey right that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I might not start the season. Yeah, they went with
Speaker 1: a booty last night. Uh. Again, a team that might that,
Speaker 1: A team that traditionally does not like to pay uh
Speaker 1: their their veterans. They allow their veterans to move on
Speaker 1: offensive tackle. You know, they they we said a buoy. Uh.
Speaker 1: Both starters are up after next season, lared Cincinnati, r
Speaker 1: Uh could we see you know, you've talked about a
Speaker 1: Jake Fisher. We've talked about Clemmings. Uh, you know, we've
Speaker 1: we've even talked about you know, and and he's off
Speaker 1: a lot of boards. You know, since a Bengals have
Speaker 1: been known to take risks. Before I bring up Collins,
Speaker 1: you know a name, just because Cincinnati there's a lot
Speaker 1: of times that they don't care about particularly and they've
Speaker 1: had good luck taking LSU tackles. I'm just throwing it
Speaker 1: out there as a possibility. But I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: I just know. But let's look at their other knees
Speaker 1: tight end, tackle and safety. Okay, tight end? Uh the
Speaker 1: uh they didn't not have a pass usher list. I
Speaker 1: guess they did add Michael Johnson, Randy Gregory. Would they
Speaker 1: go that direction here? Talking about the character guys they
Speaker 1: traditionally they don't they do traditionally do not or they're
Speaker 1: not scared of character guys. That that's the thing. I
Speaker 1: and you know, and I and again I talked about team.
Speaker 1: They're a team that traditionally does not like to pay guys.
Speaker 1: You know, they let guys if you if you're a
Speaker 1: guy that it's up, the contracts up, they let you
Speaker 1: move on. And you know, so both the offensive tackles
Speaker 1: are up next year. But you know, I like what
Speaker 1: you're talking about. Uh, you know, but the Max Williams here,
Speaker 1: That's a team it's always seemed to have drafted. Isn't
Speaker 1: this a team that just drafted Tyler Eiffert. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: he's coming off ir Jermaine Gresham in the first round
Speaker 1: a few years ago. Then Tyler Eiffert's like a surefireway
Speaker 1: to piss off their fan base. Yeah. Well, but not
Speaker 1: that they won't do it. I'm not saying they won't
Speaker 1: do it, But I know if I was a Bengals fan,
Speaker 1: it'd be interesting because their first pick was a pick
Speaker 1: for the future. Yeah. Yeah, Max Williams would be another
Speaker 1: pick for the future because he's a Richard sophomore, very young,
Speaker 1: and a player that might not have a big impact
Speaker 1: for you in year one. You're looking down the road
Speaker 1: for him. P J. Williams here, maybe we're talking about
Speaker 1: a quarter there. Okay, I like that. I still have
Speaker 1: Leon Hall? Is he still there? Let me look at
Speaker 1: the I can honestly say, I don't look at a
Speaker 1: lot of Cincinnati Bengal tape in the year. Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not well versus Denard would be on there and
Speaker 1: then Hall is still there, is on the wrong side
Speaker 1: of thirty. Yeah, and then they just redid uh Kirkpatrick? Right?
Speaker 1: Did they pick up the option on Kirkpatrick as well? Yes,
Speaker 1: so you know, we'll see how that, uh that plays
Speaker 1: out again. Yeah, they're a team that just does not
Speaker 1: like to pay and that's and that's a big, big thing.
Speaker 1: And I think you have to keep the Bengals are
Speaker 1: the ones that took dark Wise Denard right, aren't? So
Speaker 1: I don't know, all right, I don't know, but it's
Speaker 1: listened to one of their needs. And yeah, we talked
Speaker 1: about you know, they they they trying to replace Hall
Speaker 1: is what you talked about, Dave that that is a uh,
Speaker 1: you know. And and and then they got pat Nan
Speaker 1: Jones as well, so you know, maybe get a little
Speaker 1: bit more, maybe added another younger player there. Interesting and uh,
Speaker 1: Baltimore just moved up. Baltimore just went to Arizona's spot five,
Speaker 1: went to just where the running back running Detroit was
Speaker 1: kind of standing out as well. Detroit and Arizona or
Speaker 1: the two I've kind of had an eye on. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're getting you're getting close, but but I don't feel
Speaker 1: good about it yet. I really don't. Please. Welcome from
Speaker 1: the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. The thirty first overall
Speaker 1: selection in the nineteen eighty eight draft by the Bengals
Speaker 1: running back and miss a shuffle can get some cold cuts. Yah. Wow, Hey,
Speaker 1: this is his moment. This guy's awesome. He hasn't been pick.
Speaker 1: In the two thousand and fifteen draft NFL Draft, the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals select Jake Fisher tackle, tackle, back to back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we talked about this. This is a team that does
Speaker 1: not like to pay their guys, and you know, and
Speaker 1: and Jake Fisher, it's a little bit surprised though, because
Speaker 1: I think, to me, so they've always had big lineman
Speaker 1: and he's kind of not in really the mold of
Speaker 1: what you would think as a Cincinnati Bengal offensive tackle
Speaker 1: with as far as his So, yeah, the team that
Speaker 1: drafted Andrea Smith t J. Clemings to the Bengals in
Speaker 1: the third round, then yeah, just just load him. Get
Speaker 1: something's definitely wrong with Clemings now, I mean that's that's
Speaker 1: top fifty. That's almost as puzzle. I mean, it's more
Speaker 1: puzzling than Randy Gregory because we know what's wrong with
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory to an extent. Okay, this, uh, the these
Speaker 1: next two picks are interesting with Detroit and baltim Yeah, Baltimore.
Speaker 1: Baltimore has moved up to Arizona spot. Is this where
Speaker 1: your heart gets broken? Brian? Is this where your boy
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman goes. I'm not so sure. Yeah, I'm not
Speaker 1: so sure, because again you're I think you're right about
Speaker 1: running back. I think I think this is where one
Speaker 1: I mean the one. Yeah, I me, personally, I would
Speaker 1: take Tevin Coleman here if it was me, you know,
Speaker 1: but you gotta you know, that's a team in the past.
Speaker 1: That's that's kind of gone, you know a little bit
Speaker 1: that they've done, guys like Reggie Bush and guys like that.
Speaker 1: What do we what do we make of Will mcclaybean
Speaker 1: on the phone right here? Well, Will is on the
Speaker 1: which I don't know if I don't know, if I
Speaker 1: don't know if that's on the actual Uh, I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's on the actual feed. No, oh it is,
Speaker 1: it is, Okay. Yeah, I was like, oh no, yeah,
Speaker 1: well it just gave away the golden goose. Yeah. Uh
Speaker 1: is that? Would he be a guy that would be
Speaker 1: on the phone in a trade something? I don't know
Speaker 1: if he if the trade, they would go to their
Speaker 1: bank of phones. They would be the phones. You see
Speaker 1: a group of phones right there in front of them. Uh,
Speaker 1: And that's where I think that they were talking to
Speaker 1: another team. Those phones are all programmed. You see right
Speaker 1: on the other side of the cowboy helmets. Uh, those
Speaker 1: are in the middle here, Yeah, right in the middle there,
Speaker 1: they've got the bank of phones, and that's where they
Speaker 1: would Uh. So Will McClay being on the phone in
Speaker 1: the back office, I shouldn't take that to me. He
Speaker 1: might be Will might be calling one of his other friends.
Speaker 1: Uh in the in the league. He might be have
Speaker 1: another general manager that he's talking to about stuff going on.
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett's going to bring him over. Yeah, having a
Speaker 1: little pow wow here and you know, mines are up, yeah,
Speaker 1: and here we go. Oh, lines are up. There we go.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, good Joan are moving fast tonight. I love it.
Speaker 1: At University the twenty nice pieman of the nineteen eighty
Speaker 1: eight draft by the line, How thinny looks linebacker Chris Spielman.
Speaker 1: It is funny to see how different I mean all
Speaker 1: stat didn't look as you know, he looked kind of smaller.
Speaker 1: With the fifty fourth pick in the twenty fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions select a mirror Abdullah. Oh all right,
Speaker 1: so Abdullah goes and there's a short running back off
Speaker 1: right there, Joike Bell and a mir Abdullah throwing a
Speaker 1: little theoretic. I like what they're doing there behind Warford
Speaker 1: and Tomlinson. Now, yeah, exactly, you get a bit, you
Speaker 1: get a little guy running behind those big offensive lineman.
Speaker 1: And we've talked about kt when we and I were
Speaker 1: watching tape on Abdullah. Though a lot of holes there
Speaker 1: in Nebras some of the biggest holes you'll see in
Speaker 1: the country. So if you liked what you saw on tape,
Speaker 1: you might get used to it because you might have
Speaker 1: those holes in Detroit with those two big guards. Man
Speaker 1: Dula is a great player. Now we liked Coleman and
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson just a little bit more. And if I'm
Speaker 1: you know, with the cowboys sitting there at sixty, I'm
Speaker 1: kind of pumped. I've got to I've got to think
Speaker 1: if you want Coleman or you want Duke Johnson, I know,
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman's the guy I've got my heart set on it.
Speaker 1: Is it he decided he's made it this far? Is
Speaker 1: it realistic? Here? All right? We're at fifty five, that's right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we're at fifty five. We're five picks away. Realistic to
Speaker 1: think that you might have to choose between not just
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson or yeah, Duke Johnson and Randy Gregory, but
Speaker 1: also Tevin Coleman. Yeah, Baltimore here, Yeah, I'm not. I know,
Speaker 1: I know the last I mean, I just jinks died
Speaker 1: by saying it. So, but forget about that is I mean,
Speaker 1: we've been talking about Tavin Coleman since February as a
Speaker 1: guy that's like he's forgetting about. He's one of my
Speaker 1: favorite players. I am. I am, honestly, I'm shocked that
Speaker 1: he is still available. But let's and again not Jinks it,
Speaker 1: but everybody in that in that war room right now,
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones, he having conversations, he sees, he sees the names,
Speaker 1: he sees the names and maybe the opportunity to move
Speaker 1: back in this draft. Maybe that's what he's talking about.
Speaker 1: Which when you look at the numbers, it's really interesting.
Speaker 1: They could get somebody. If they could get somebody, maybe
Speaker 1: you get New England to come walk up to you
Speaker 1: if you get to you know. But again, maybe somebody
Speaker 1: coming from the back of the round. The Tampa, Tennessee
Speaker 1: Jacksonville took a running. Maybe they want to come up.
Speaker 1: But if they get enough names on that draft. For
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're sitting there and you think you haven't,
Speaker 1: you know, one of your guys will be there. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: You know. Jerry Jones is out of the room right now,
Speaker 1: you know. So they they're just sitting there, they're mining
Speaker 1: their own business. But you see Jason Garrett now it's
Speaker 1: having a little bit more conversations with Stephen Jones, Jerry
Speaker 1: Junior involved as well. Charlotte in the middle of this
Speaker 1: right now, you know you worry that's maybe too cute. No,
Speaker 1: you just take your play. I think that they I
Speaker 1: think that picks in them for the Ravens. This is
Speaker 1: a trader. Cardinals have traded the fifty five offense to
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens offense last night. Yeah, I think so. Well,
Speaker 1: they need a cornerback though, from the University of Miami
Speaker 1: ten the tenth overall pick in the nineteen ninety eight
Speaker 1: drafts and after the defensive back Dwayne starts with the
Speaker 1: fifty fifth pick. In the two thousand and fifteen NFL draft,
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens select Max Williams. T end who's picking next,
Speaker 1: all right, the Steelers And that's where I had Max
Speaker 1: Williams slotted. And the Ravens knew they needed to get
Speaker 1: in front of Pittsburgh and already get Max Williams. Yeah,
Speaker 1: great job. And and Ozzie Knews gives them a lot
Speaker 1: of credit for they always seem to have a really
Speaker 1: good feel for who is going to be where on
Speaker 1: that board. Max Williams, Dane talk about him and what
Speaker 1: you saw from the very talented flex tied end really
Speaker 1: from the Minnesota Golden Gophers. Yeah, player just turned twenty
Speaker 1: one years old. He's just scratching the surface of the
Speaker 1: player that he's going to be. Uh he's not yet
Speaker 1: really a detailed route runner, but he accelerates well, soft hands,
Speaker 1: You love the ball skills that he brings. He can
Speaker 1: really be a mismatch nightmare. But he is very young.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's a player that's going to help right.
Speaker 1: He just turned twenty one, So he's not a player
Speaker 1: that's going to help you out. I think a ton
Speaker 1: as a rookie. But he can place in some two
Speaker 1: tight end sets and then when you look at his
Speaker 1: pick three years from now, it's going to be a steal.
Speaker 1: I'd see a lot of Heath Miller with him. Now.
Speaker 1: You'd seem to make some circus catches too. I think
Speaker 1: that's really impressive, how good a hands he has. H
Speaker 1: greg Olsen was the type of guy that I kind
Speaker 1: of compared him to. Greg Olsen's a little bit bigger
Speaker 1: than that. But yeah, Max Williams, Now I'm getting thrilled
Speaker 1: because I think Baltimore was another table that we are
Speaker 1: terrified of keep taking guys that we don't want. And
Speaker 1: now it's fine with me. And now I'm starting to
Speaker 1: come around on the broad trade down I did. Now
Speaker 1: as we get closer and closer, and I think more
Speaker 1: guys I like, as we get closer to sixty, a
Speaker 1: lot of teams just see this draft as such a
Speaker 1: deep running back class. And you know, if you don't
Speaker 1: keep your running back here in the second, you can
Speaker 1: get a David Johnson, and the third, you know, you
Speaker 1: can get a David Cobb in the fourth or fifth.
Speaker 1: So absolutely, I think that's what we're seeing when a
Speaker 1: lot of these running backs is, you know, but here
Speaker 1: with Tevin Coleman and Duke Johnson's on the board, Heck,
Speaker 1: I'm not moving back. I'm staying at sixty and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go get one. I never would have guessed that
Speaker 1: Abdulla would be the fourth running back off the board.
Speaker 1: It's Randy Gregory's still in your thoughts at this point
Speaker 1: in time. He's in your thoughts, which means he's in
Speaker 1: my thoughts because I trust your opinion. I just how
Speaker 1: do you feel. I'm just looking at the defensive ends,
Speaker 1: and I mean, this guy's potentially could have had a
Speaker 1: first round grade. Yeah, I mean, that's that's what you
Speaker 1: gotta wait. If he's still on their board, he's not
Speaker 1: on their board, probably somewhere second or third round. I mean,
Speaker 1: i'd have to think that he would probably be a
Speaker 1: guy that we talked about second To consider him here,
Speaker 1: you can't just you know, uh say we're going running back,
Speaker 1: that's it. And who's ever on the board we're taking.
Speaker 1: There's no doubt. I mean, yeah, you gotta you gotta
Speaker 1: consider it's just based on the value. I mean, you're
Speaker 1: talking about a really talented guy. I just still don't
Speaker 1: know if it's worth it. Also, we mentioned him at
Speaker 1: the top of the at the top of the round,
Speaker 1: and this is probably more in line with what they thought.
Speaker 1: But Diggie Diggy Diggy's still sitting there too. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: sure is. Like like I mean, I'm starting my I'm
Speaker 1: the wheels are starting to turn. Like there's enough names
Speaker 1: there that I'm okay, let's do some inventory. Then here
Speaker 1: Coleman comfortable. Coleman still on the board, Dude, Johnson's still
Speaker 1: on the board, Gregory's still on the board, Carl Davis
Speaker 1: is still on the board, and p J Williams. We
Speaker 1: don't think they would take he would still be on
Speaker 1: the board as well. Uh, if you're talking about and
Speaker 1: Bryce Petty, all right, Bryce Petty, now shut up, don't
Speaker 1: say that. Well, I'm just talking about if you're talking
Speaker 1: about Jerry Jones. Aren't you think aren't you the king
Speaker 1: of the wind? Now, aren't you the king of the wind? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't know. But see that's me. I'm
Speaker 1: out of here. I'm sitting here doing radio right now.
Speaker 1: I will flip if this team takes Bryce Petty, if
Speaker 1: all these guys are still on the Jerry Jones is
Speaker 1: still is now returned stuff. Yeah, he's back in the
Speaker 1: war room here. It looks like to me the Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: Steelers are on the clock. We talk about the Steelers
Speaker 1: in a couple they seem like to always have a
Speaker 1: player fall into their laps. I think that happened a
Speaker 1: little bit last night with Bud Dupree. Quick, Paul, We've
Speaker 1: got I've gotten there from enough readers that I think
Speaker 1: I want to hear y'all's take Gregory and Tevin Cole
Speaker 1: when are both there in sixty Gosh, that's so hard.
Speaker 1: I guess it's a really hard question why I would
Speaker 1: take or who they're gonna take. No, who would you take?
Speaker 1: And then tell me what you think they'll take. I
Speaker 1: would take Coleman, but I think they're gonna take I
Speaker 1: think they would take the end. I would take Coleman too,
Speaker 1: but I love Coleman, so I'm biased. I would Coleman's
Speaker 1: a beast. The line is great. He doesn't have any
Speaker 1: real issues that you have to worry about. The thing
Speaker 1: is that Randy Gregory, to me, he's best is a
Speaker 1: three four outside linebacker. Yeah, agreed, He's two hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty five pounds. I think Randy Gregory is, no question,
Speaker 1: the better talent than Tevin Coleman or a running back.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm not convinced of his fit in Dallas Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1: We're talking about a cornerback. They got the edge rusher
Speaker 1: last night in Bud Dupree, safety of possibility, an offensive
Speaker 1: tackle or a guard. These, these needs that we've checked tonight,
Speaker 1: have seemed to have held up. Teams seemed to be
Speaker 1: drafting off their needs here early uh in the in
Speaker 1: there in this second and first and second round. We
Speaker 1: talked again about the Steelers with Bud Dupree last night,
Speaker 1: a corner and a safety as well. Any any particular
Speaker 1: cornerbacks we've talked. We've now the Steelers are a team
Speaker 1: that Steelers needed a corner. We were worried about them
Speaker 1: maybe sniffing around Byron Jones, and we talked about it.
Speaker 1: Pji is still on the board, Nelson on the board,
Speaker 1: Shaw on the board. Uh, that seems like a smart
Speaker 1: pick for them right here, Saw or or or Nelson,
Speaker 1: I mean something like that. Or you think or p
Speaker 1: J Williams. I I mean, I I'm not I'm not
Speaker 1: the tape guy, but I know I like PJ. Williams' size.
Speaker 1: He's a bigger guy. Yeah. Do you think that they
Speaker 1: would go size? I mean Williams the guy see the Stewards.
Speaker 1: To me, Stewards might be a team that will play
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean they're big. They've always been
Speaker 1: a big, physical team. Yeah. I mean they always had
Speaker 1: gotta be to play in that division. Yeah. I just
Speaker 1: who was who? Okay, if the guys they just named,
Speaker 1: who are the best cover guy? Williams, Nelson, Shaw, can
Speaker 1: you throw? I mean Carter, I'm named Goldson. I'm naming guys.
Speaker 1: I mean anybody, anybody strike me since we like the corner.
Speaker 1: We like the fit of corner here. Any of those
Speaker 1: other names do anything for you here? I think one
Speaker 1: name that I kind of like, the John Smith out
Speaker 1: of Florida Atlantic. He's in this area. Now we talk
Speaker 1: about p J. Williams, also not squeaky clean off the field,
Speaker 1: and the Steelers traditionally are a team that they want
Speaker 1: high character guys. Yeah, and factoring that in, you know,
Speaker 1: could they go in a different direction than PJ. Williams
Speaker 1: if they do go corner here? Yeah, well we will
Speaker 1: see what particular. There's a lot of activity going on
Speaker 1: in the war room. Guys are very focused, a little more,
Speaker 1: a little more yes, stressed out, look, I mean, grant
Speaker 1: me and they're four picks away. Yeah, but but they
Speaker 1: know they have options. They do have options. Stephen Jones
Speaker 1: now leaning over talking to Jason Garrett. He's telling them, Hey,
Speaker 1: if we can go back, maybe we can land a
Speaker 1: guy or two. They've got names. I guarantee you, Garrett.
Speaker 1: The Steeler selections in. Let's go to it. Cowboy hat
Speaker 1: for the wind Steelers up on the clock. Here we go.
Speaker 1: Please welcome from Southern University selected in the third round
Speaker 1: of the nineteen seventy draft by the Steelers Hall of
Speaker 1: Famer defensive back Mel Blunt. Thank you. Okay, here we
Speaker 1: go steal a nation. With the fifty sixth pick in
Speaker 1: the two thousand and fifteen NFL Draft, the Pittsburgh Steelers
Speaker 1: select sin Quez Golson, defensive back Mississippi. That seems all right.
Speaker 1: They went corner. We were, we were on the trail
Speaker 1: of what they were doing. These teams are holding in
Speaker 1: there on their on their on their needs size. Yeah,
Speaker 1: five eight and a half. I mean a player that
Speaker 1: he's got into some trouble too. He's to me he's
Speaker 1: a nickel. Um, I don't I don't see him playing
Speaker 1: on the outside. Uh, he had I love his ball skills,
Speaker 1: you know, ten interceptions as a senior. Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: We're shaking hands and looking real happy here in the Cowboy. Well,
Speaker 1: Garrett looks, Garrett looks not comfortable. Jerry looks excited, Stephen
Speaker 1: looks excited. We're we're glad handing and slapping backs all
Speaker 1: over the place over here. Okay, Well, maybe like I say,
Speaker 1: they're gonna get ready. Yeah, let's see we got I
Speaker 1: mean there there's still three picks away, So unless they traded,
Speaker 1: like yeah, so what, I'm very maybe Twitter has an
Speaker 1: answer for us. You know, I think that again, we've
Speaker 1: we've talked about all the possibilities that they can go through,
Speaker 1: you know, and and that's the thing that that we
Speaker 1: we have to be you know, you have to be
Speaker 1: really be alert for of all those names. I mean,
Speaker 1: they had a lot of options on their on their uh,
Speaker 1: their board to go to, and you know, we we
Speaker 1: we've gone through them and and and talked about them.
Speaker 1: And again I think that the runners were there. We
Speaker 1: talked about Randy Gregory, a bunch, Carl Davis, We've talked
Speaker 1: about you know, these guys. You know, it's there was
Speaker 1: a lot of options. It looks like to me they're
Speaker 1: gonna stand there and to make a pick. This is
Speaker 1: not a group that's sitting there gonna sweat some things.
Speaker 1: They can bass on Randy Gregory. I don't I don't
Speaker 1: think they can pass on am I am? I I
Speaker 1: get Are they that confident that they're yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a Randy Gregor as a player they were
Speaker 1: considering a twenty seven. Yeah, absolutely so if he's here
Speaker 1: at sixty, I'm just I just gotta believe, I just
Speaker 1: gotta believe that, you know, the running back. Yeah, let's
Speaker 1: go the pick here. Next, we've got up on the
Speaker 1: board right now, this would be Saint Louis would be
Speaker 1: on the on the on the Lewis Rams selection. Please
Speaker 1: welcome from the University of Hawaii, a second round draft
Speaker 1: pick in two thousand and three by the Rams linebacker
Speaker 1: Pisa Tino. He's Samoa. Thank you. With the fifty seventh
Speaker 1: pick and a two thy fifteen NFL Draft, we the
Speaker 1: Saint Louis Ram select Robert Havenstein, tackle Wisconsin. This is
Speaker 1: and this is exactly what we were talking about at
Speaker 1: the top of the team's value guys in different ways.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy that I thought had
Speaker 1: a much lower grade than second round. But all it
Speaker 1: takes is one team. Yeah, well that's again, that's a
Speaker 1: you look at you look at the situation, you know
Speaker 1: with uh these teams. We're hearing something in our ears
Speaker 1: right now. It looks like some talking going on here
Speaker 1: we're here in Jason Garrett, I'm sorry, sorry about that. Well,
Speaker 1: we know it's a defensive player. Let's see. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: about that. I mean to talk over him here we go.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, so we're we're okay, we're just
Speaker 1: gonna keep Okay, So we weren't playing any audio from anything.
Speaker 1: Any calls they say, okay, good, fair enough, fair enough.
Speaker 1: I just so I'm sorry about that. We stopped down
Speaker 1: the show. Uh there it looked like we were hearing
Speaker 1: something in our headsets, so we didn't want to interrupt
Speaker 1: anybody making any calls. Uh. The Cowboys are or obviously
Speaker 1: they've got the player they wanted to be got. If
Speaker 1: you look in the war room, they've got their guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they've locked again. That means we still have Arizona on
Speaker 1: the clock. We've got and then after them, after that
Speaker 1: would be uh, Denver and then Dallas. So they know
Speaker 1: that they're gonna get their player here uh with with
Speaker 1: their pick. Uh. So uh we'll just h we'll see
Speaker 1: how this all uh plays out here. But again, um,
Speaker 1: just go through the names, you know, the runners. Let's
Speaker 1: go the picks up, the picks up. Now, this will
Speaker 1: be the Cardinals select from Baltimore. Is this a running back?
Speaker 1: This is another popular landing spot. Commissioners on the clock. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's see if we don't have any audio here, we're
Speaker 1: gonna get an announcement on the player. Nothing coming to
Speaker 1: the Headsblands. So okay, who we speculated about potentially which
Speaker 1: way they you go? You know, defensive players here though
Speaker 1: they've lost their defensive coordinator, new defensive mark Marcus Golden.
Speaker 1: Marcus Golden is a player, so sorry about that. Didn't
Speaker 1: have anything in my headphone saying but we didn't get
Speaker 1: the commissioner's pick on there. But yeah, Marcus Golden, the
Speaker 1: defensive end from Missouri. That puts the Denver Broncos now
Speaker 1: on the clock, which is right ahead of the Dallas Cowboys. Um,
Speaker 1: so we will see who the Broncos and then the
Speaker 1: Cowboys will have their option. If you've already seen celebration,
Speaker 1: we've seen Jerry Jones on the phone right now, uh
Speaker 1: talking obviously too. He's uh, he's just hung up the phone,
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones. Everybody looks extremely happy. Um again, so we
Speaker 1: keep talking about names, you know, and we we focused.
Speaker 1: I mean, look look at your board, Brian. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at my board and it's one of two players. It's
Speaker 1: it's either it's either it's got to be either it's
Speaker 1: either Randy Gregory, right or Carl Davis, right, I think
Speaker 1: that if you if you talked about yeah, I think
Speaker 1: that I think you have to include one of these
Speaker 1: running backs in there too. Rod Marinell he's not talking
Speaker 1: to a running back. We saw him pick up the
Speaker 1: phone and talk. You know, that's right, that's right. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: my bad. I was just adding names to the into
Speaker 1: my into my mind. But yeah, it's either it's either
Speaker 1: gonna be Randy Gregory or it's gonna be Carl Davis.
Speaker 1: I mean that that that seems like the only logical conclusion.
Speaker 1: I think it's Randy Gregory. Yeah. Think that's the pick.
Speaker 1: They considered him at twenty seven. We thought there maybe
Speaker 1: he could have been the choice there. Think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be sixty. Yeah, I do. Well, here we go. The
Speaker 1: Broncos are now up. The Broncos are making the selection
Speaker 1: here with the Commissioner Minnesota, a fourth round pick in
Speaker 1: the nineteen seventy five draft by the Broncos wide receiver
Speaker 1: Rick up Church. If I can just take one second,
Speaker 1: I'd like to to think my Denver Bronco family and
Speaker 1: my family back in Holland, Ohio. I'm in the process,
Speaker 1: I'm by I'm fighting leukemia and my family, the Denver
Speaker 1: Broncos and my family back in Holland, Ohio. I just
Speaker 1: like to say thank you for being in my corner
Speaker 1: with the fifty ninth Pig and the two thousand and
Speaker 1: fifteen NFL Draft. Our Denver Bronco select Ty Sambrilo, tackle
Speaker 1: from Colorado State University. Okay, Ty Sambrello, our state products,
Speaker 1: staying in state. Yeah, I like the fact I like
Speaker 1: this kid myself. I mean I did. I like the
Speaker 1: fact that I thought he could be able a swing tackle.
Speaker 1: I thought he could be one of those guys that
Speaker 1: you know, Dany, we we talked about maybe a little
Speaker 1: bit light, maybe not the strongest guy in the world,
Speaker 1: but I liked I always liked the foot quickness, I
Speaker 1: like disability to stay with this guy. He was a
Speaker 1: guy that could finish his blocks as well. So it's
Speaker 1: really one of those guys that I really like it.
Speaker 1: As far as he's gonna have to put on some way,
Speaker 1: he's got to put on some strength, build up a
Speaker 1: little bit, but as far as far as finishing the guy,
Speaker 1: that's what he annailed him. Let's be honest, We're talking
Speaker 1: Ty Sambrello and Number sixties up. Yeah, I think that.
Speaker 1: I think the fans want to know who that's six.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be. Yeah, we've been We've been mentioning it
Speaker 1: all day. Randy Gregory's still there, still there, If he's
Speaker 1: still on the board, do you pass on running back
Speaker 1: here to go get the talent? Well, I think that
Speaker 1: that David Hellman made a very stupe point. We got
Speaker 1: your defensive coordinator. Yeah, and I was thinking, Okay, could
Speaker 1: it be the running back? I was trying to add Remick.
Speaker 1: I personally think that Randy Gregory is on their board
Speaker 1: very high. I think they've waited this pick out they
Speaker 1: were they started today thinking he was going to be there.
Speaker 1: He in fact has got all the way to them
Speaker 1: in this draft. So I'm willing to bet that this
Speaker 1: pick is gonna be Everyone in this room, this thing.
Speaker 1: It just goes to show all the preparation in the world.
Speaker 1: Man never would have thought Randy Gregory would be here
Speaker 1: in this position. Never would have thought you would have
Speaker 1: your choice between two or three really solid running backs.
Speaker 1: I mean, I would have told you you were crazy
Speaker 1: if Tevin Coleman was still there at like forty eight sixty, say,
Speaker 1: the first draft show we did back in January. If
Speaker 1: you would have if someone would have told us you
Speaker 1: the Cowboys ended up with Randy Gregory and Byron Jones,
Speaker 1: been like, oh, Byron Jones would have been a nice
Speaker 1: secon round pick. Okay, Cowboys on the clock, and we
Speaker 1: would say, here's Dallas. The selection is up for Dallas.
Speaker 1: We would have said, what did they do to go
Speaker 1: up and get Randy gregor? Darren oh Man, what's up? Dude?
Speaker 1: How about them Cowboys? With the sixtie of the pick
Speaker 1: in the twenty fifteen NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys select
Speaker 1: great pick Randy Gregory. Are boom shaka laka. All right,
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory, we see him there. He's in Chicago, very
Speaker 1: happy that this uh, this journey has come to an
Speaker 1: end for him. Uh, you know, and you have to
Speaker 1: think with with all that's going on in his life,
Speaker 1: he's very happy right now obviously, but cal always have
Speaker 1: to be as just as happy as well to get
Speaker 1: a guy that getting ten talent. Yeah, I mean, now
Speaker 1: the questions is the support system. Jason Garrett is everything
Speaker 1: that we believe that this team has stood for, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, as far as helping their players and stuff.
Speaker 1: Can this kid adapt and come in and uh, well
Speaker 1: even you know, even the offensive coaches are happy at
Speaker 1: looking to see the war room from up top, you know,
Speaker 1: the offensive coaches are. I think Scotland Hands is over
Speaker 1: there somewhere like, yeah, well he's he's happy to be again.
Speaker 1: It's you know, about getting off the field. It's about
Speaker 1: getting off the field on third down. Guys, this is
Speaker 1: what this guy can do for you. This is this
Speaker 1: I mean, leave it. Leave it to the Cowboys, and
Speaker 1: I mean this in a good way. Leave it to
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I mean, this has got to be one
Speaker 1: of the most interesting picks of the draft so far.
Speaker 1: I mean, like I said at the top of yesterday,
Speaker 1: I mean Gregory was mentioned in the same breath as
Speaker 1: Leonard Williams. I mean maybe you know, just yeah, when
Speaker 1: this all started, he was considered a top five, top
Speaker 1: ten guy. You get him at sixty and I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, this is nothing new to anybody that follows
Speaker 1: this team that a guy who's got an interesting off
Speaker 1: the field life is something you have to look out for.
Speaker 1: So always an adventure with this team. And hey, if
Speaker 1: they hit, then this guy has the potential to be
Speaker 1: an absolute monster. You were you feel better now? I mean,
Speaker 1: you were very critical. Every everything I said before stands.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to change my opinion just because they
Speaker 1: picked him. I think it's a very it's a boomer
Speaker 1: bust pick. I mean, in my opinion at least. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm not You're right, I'm not. I'm not sure how
Speaker 1: well he fits the scheme. I'm not sure how well
Speaker 1: they can keep him under control, keep him motivated, whatever
Speaker 1: it is they got to do. I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: He's not like a maniac or anything, but it's it's
Speaker 1: a concern. Otherwise he wouldn't be at sixty. You look
Speaker 1: at looking at my draft board, the Cowboys draft in
Speaker 1: the last two days and a top sixty picks drafted,
Speaker 1: my number sixteen and my number twenty two players in
Speaker 1: this draft. Right, that's a haul and if you hit
Speaker 1: on these picks then it all pays off. But again
Speaker 1: risk reward at this point, the draft number sixty, How
Speaker 1: I'm all for it. Yeah, Can I ask this question
Speaker 1: you guys more concerned about the off the field stuff
Speaker 1: or just the kind of the scheme fit his ability
Speaker 1: to put on a little bit of weight. Honestly, a
Speaker 1: little bit of both. Yeah, I mean I think, yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to consider both two two hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: five pounds. I mean, Devin funchis probably weighs two hundred
Speaker 1: and thirty five pounds. I think what you have to
Speaker 1: think about this player when you look at and you know,
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll get one of the coaches in here later,
Speaker 1: you know, to have an opportunity to visit about Randy Gregory.
Speaker 1: I think that we have to think about a guy
Speaker 1: playing in a rotating system. I don't think you're gonna
Speaker 1: ask Randy Gregory to play sixty five seventy plays if
Speaker 1: they get if they get a Nickel situation, I guarantee
Speaker 1: you're gonna see Randy Gregory playing at the right end.
Speaker 1: You're gonna see Jeremy Mintscy kick inside play, play maybe
Speaker 1: the three. And then also then you get Crawford and
Speaker 1: then the Marcus Lawrence. Here's you know, and that's a
Speaker 1: rotating system, and that's you know, something that I think,
Speaker 1: but he will get challenged, He will get challenged, and hey,
Speaker 1: there's no doubt about let's not forget that. If they're
Speaker 1: I mean, there might not be a better group of
Speaker 1: guys to coach a project player than Marinelli, Leon Lett
Speaker 1: and Ben Blooming those guys, I mean, anybody good at reading.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you look in the room in the
Speaker 1: immediate aftermath, yeah, it was. I mean you saw how
Speaker 1: excited these guys were. I mean right, and I think
Speaker 1: they know they got a really high talent at a
Speaker 1: really low pick. Yeah. Um again. I mean it is
Speaker 1: interesting just all the concerns that we've already listed. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think in the case of Byron Jones, you get
Speaker 1: a really good player who you didn't think was going
Speaker 1: to be there, who you're not ever worried about him
Speaker 1: as an off the field guy, and now you got
Speaker 1: all that other stuff to worry about. So I mean
Speaker 1: it's I mean, there you go, there's your answer right there.
Speaker 1: Stephen Jones and Will McClay just fift bumped the hell
Speaker 1: out of each other. Yeah. Uh so. I mean, well,
Speaker 1: Jason Garrett's a man sitting there and you know, and
Speaker 1: he's going to be tested on this one too, ye.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is where and I'm positive he's he's
Speaker 1: thinking about that. I mean, he's the he's the right
Speaker 1: kind of guy. That's his contra you know, and they
Speaker 1: were watching, you know, Randy Gregor get interviewed on stage
Speaker 1: and they all kind of sitting there like concerned parents.
Speaker 1: Therefore it's over there fist bumping. Yeah, well it it will.
Speaker 1: What do you I didn't mean to interrupt, you know,
Speaker 1: go ahead. What you know? He's two hundred three to
Speaker 1: five pounds? How why does he fit the scheme? What?
Speaker 1: What's the realistic projection? I mean, you know a lot
Speaker 1: of people want a defensive end because Hardy's probably not
Speaker 1: gonna be available for six to ten weeks. What's I mean?
Speaker 1: What can this guy do right off the bat? This
Speaker 1: is a guy that you think probably wants to put
Speaker 1: on weight. I mean yeah, but the problem he run
Speaker 1: into is he's at a he's at a school where
Speaker 1: there is a good strength program Nebraska. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: would naturally saying maybe he can't put on weight. That's
Speaker 1: what you have to be concerned at. Is if you're
Speaker 1: a scout, you have to be concerned at. This guy
Speaker 1: is a lean up the field rush player. I I
Speaker 1: mean maybe if you put weight on him, he won't
Speaker 1: be as good. Is that They They've got to find
Speaker 1: a comfort spot for him where he could play at
Speaker 1: it as an elite pass rusher and I want to say,
Speaker 1: there's times where you see elite play, and then there's
Speaker 1: other times where you don't see elite play. And that's
Speaker 1: why I liked him better as a linebacker more so
Speaker 1: than a hand on the ground, you know, trench player,
Speaker 1: because of you look at him and his wrists, his
Speaker 1: ankles very skinny, and that's an indication right there about
Speaker 1: how much weight he can actually put on. I just
Speaker 1: I don't believe he can sustain two hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: pounds consistently. But I hope, I hope this team proves
Speaker 1: me wrong. If the Cowboys were still running a three four,
Speaker 1: I'd be And I mean, I'm not saying that this
Speaker 1: is a bad pick. I think you know, when you
Speaker 1: talk about the value, when you talk about what they
Speaker 1: feel comfortable with it. Oh, they they feel more than
Speaker 1: comfortable with it. They're pumped. I'm so. I'm not trying
Speaker 1: to write him off right away, but I will say
Speaker 1: that if they were running a three four scheme here,
Speaker 1: I'd be much more excited. But off field stuff combined
Speaker 1: with scheme fit makes me what's the word I'm looking for,
Speaker 1: I'm thank you, Yeah, I am concerned. It's a word
Speaker 1: that Jason Garrett really doesn't like us to ask him
Speaker 1: about are you concerned? No, he doesn't. He also doesn't
Speaker 1: like hypotheticals, and he doesn't like players. Right, I will
Speaker 1: gladly eat Crow if he's a boss. I'm not not
Speaker 1: rooting against the guy. I'm just trying to give my
Speaker 1: honest assessment. Yeah, so that's where we are. But hey,
Speaker 1: like I said, I think, really, when you think about it,
Speaker 1: just in terms of value, you get a top five
Speaker 1: to fifteen guy at sixty. It's hard to argue against
Speaker 1: that kind of value. Right Again, we talk about the
Speaker 1: character guys. At some point somebody, somebody decides it's worth it,
Speaker 1: and it was sixty, and I have a hard time
Speaker 1: arguing that that's wrong. And also Duke and Tevin Coleman
Speaker 1: and a couple other good runs still there, still on
Speaker 1: the board for still there tonight. Realistically, there was a
Speaker 1: chance we thought we'd be talking about this pick last night,
Speaker 1: and so sure, how much better does it feel to
Speaker 1: be talking about it at sixty? It feels loads loads
Speaker 1: better talking about it knowing that we already have Byron
Speaker 1: Jones in the building, a player who the utmost character
Speaker 1: quote unquote safer pick, So yeah, I think you'd feel Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: ask a question here, just an observation from what we've seen.
Speaker 1: Does it feel like that Stephen Jones had to be
Speaker 1: talked in excume Jason Garrett had to be talked into
Speaker 1: that pick. Yeah, Garrett looked like the least excited guy
Speaker 1: in the room. So yeah, yeah, that's why I asked
Speaker 1: the question about body language. Yeah, you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: is that really he? I ranked Stephen as the most
Speaker 1: excited guy and Will McClay right behind him at number two. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and so and there's a lot of work, you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of work that Jason's kind of chewing
Speaker 1: on his glasses right here, just like, what have we
Speaker 1: what do we have waiting? Okay, the draft continues on
Speaker 1: as we go here. Uh, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, oh wow,
Speaker 1: have gotten to have have got this pick, the sixty
Speaker 1: first pick from the uh from the Indianapolis Colts. So
Speaker 1: that means the Buccaneers are on the clock, followed by
Speaker 1: the Packers. Seahawks will get their first pick of the draft,
Speaker 1: and then we finished up the round with the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots. What we're gonna do is, let's take a
Speaker 1: little let's take a little break right now, kind of
Speaker 1: regroup here and then come back. We'll have those picks, Buccaneers, packers,
Speaker 1: Seahawks will be right back after these messages. Introducing ATNT

Speaker 1: Ondellas Cowboys dot Com. Back here with the continuing coverage
Speaker 1: of the NFL Draft from Dallas Cowboys dot Com. UH,
Speaker 1: Brian broad Us and Jeff Kavanaugh currently in UH watching
Speaker 1: these final few picks in around. We were gonna we're
Speaker 1: gonna have uh Randy Gregory. We'll be joining us here
Speaker 1: in UH briefly UH to visit talk about his experience
Speaker 1: in Chicago and really what he's gone through here. The
Speaker 1: last couple of days, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made their
Speaker 1: selection Ali Moore Pett the tackle from Hobart and let's
Speaker 1: go to the commission right now for the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 1: Throughout the Green Bay Packers, please welcome from Al Gordon
Speaker 1: State University, a seventh round pick in the nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: nine draft by the Packers wide receiver Donald Driver with
Speaker 1: the sixty second pick in a two thousand NFL draft,
Speaker 1: Al Green Bay Packers Gold pack gold Quentin Rose Deep
Speaker 1: as a back from the universe of Miami, Ohio. Well
Speaker 1: Quentin Rawlins the the cornerback from Miami, Ohio. Quentin Rawlings, uh,
Speaker 1: Ted Thompson and the Green Bay Packers make the selection
Speaker 1: there with Quentin Rollins. We've talked about Quentin Rawlins as
Speaker 1: a guy that potentially could play as UH could play
Speaker 1: as a cornerback. Some people like him play him as
Speaker 1: a safety. Uh that he was because you're talking about
Speaker 1: a guy that was a college basketball player, yes, and
Speaker 1: then gets in one year of college football is one year, right, right,
Speaker 1: So he plays it for one year. And to me,
Speaker 1: how advanced he was at the position. I thought I
Speaker 1: would see a much more raw player, right, And I'm not.
Speaker 1: And that's not to say that he's got this thing
Speaker 1: figured out and perfected. But I was expecting to see
Speaker 1: just a naturally athletic guy that wasn't really sure what
Speaker 1: he was doing. And I thought he showed an understanding
Speaker 1: of his own concepts. I didn't think he was bad fundamentally,
Speaker 1: and I think that people are looking at his smarts
Speaker 1: and the recognition that he shows, combined with his athleticism
Speaker 1: and his willingness to tackle, and that's where that projection
Speaker 1: comes from. I could see him playing either spot. I
Speaker 1: was just really surprised at how advanced he was for
Speaker 1: a guy that you're talking about a one year football player. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and he got his eye, he had to have it again,
Speaker 1: his eyes stuck in the backfield and some of those
Speaker 1: things that you know happened with kind of raw players. Yeah, KT,
Speaker 1: this is your team. Now. Last night you mean you
Speaker 1: had you know, you took Randall. Yeah, and now you
Speaker 1: know Ted Thompson doing some stuff with this secondary though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess said that they're not afraid to get like
Speaker 1: a safety corner, you know, hypertype player Micah hides another
Speaker 1: guy that they'll run out there. They just got two
Speaker 1: of them home. Yeah, they's got two like that. So
Speaker 1: we've got the Seahawks selection now up on the podium. Okay,
Speaker 1: with the sixty third pick in the twenty fifteen NFL Draft.
Speaker 1: My team, the Seattle Seahawks. Hey, don't don't hate on us, now,
Speaker 1: don't hate on us. Okay, the Seattle Seahawks Celettin Frank Clark. Oh, defensive,
Speaker 1: we're okay, Hey, we're okay because we just took ours. No,
Speaker 1: but Brian's pet cat, I know, but it worked out, okay, Brian,
Speaker 1: because we got our pass rusher Now we can let
Speaker 1: Frank go because now we're worried about our runner. Now
Speaker 1: we're worried about our runner. Frank can go wherever he wants.
Speaker 1: Got our pass Rush Ryan is screaming internally right now.
Speaker 1: It's okay, I am screaming internally right now. No. I
Speaker 1: will say this though, if they had not gotten Randy
Speaker 1: Gregor make it lessens the blow. Yeah, if they went Runner,
Speaker 1: we'd be said, we've all talked and has anybody had?
Speaker 1: And that will the Seattle Seahawks first pick after they
Speaker 1: made the trade with the New Orleans Saints, so they
Speaker 1: did not have a first round pick, but they take
Speaker 1: Frank Clark, who I have to say this, my intern
Speaker 1: learned well, my intern, John Snyder. That is a story
Speaker 1: that I don't get tired of. My intern who worked
Speaker 1: at my side, trusted intern who's now went in Super
Speaker 1: Bowls up in Seattle. Candy man, right, absolutely, the candy
Speaker 1: man he is. Uh. He went and got a guy.
Speaker 1: And that's something with Seattle. And we all talked about
Speaker 1: the talent with Frank. John will tell you this though
Speaker 1: about those players he has util But and let's go,
Speaker 1: this will be the final pick in the round and
Speaker 1: it would be the world champion Negld Patriots to announced
Speaker 1: see New England Patriots selection. Please welcome from the University
Speaker 1: of Michigan. A first round pick in the nineteen ninety
Speaker 1: five draft by the Patriots, defensive back Ty Law. Good
Speaker 1: player was a good player with the sixty fourth pick
Speaker 1: of the two fifteen draft, the Super Bowl forty nine
Speaker 1: champion New England Patriots do that. Jordan Richards, defensive back Stanford.
Speaker 1: All right, Jordan Richards the pick from Stanford five, ten
Speaker 1: to eleven. I think there was probably a couple of
Speaker 1: safeties that we thought better. But who are us? Two
Speaker 1: questions the world champion New England Patriots. But yeah, we'll
Speaker 1: get into Jordan Richard cheering and that ends. Uh, that
Speaker 1: ends the second round of the draft. We are now
Speaker 1: going into the third round. And that means that the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, in a trade, that trade that they made
Speaker 1: with Tampa, they opened the third so the Indianapolis Colts
Speaker 1: will open the third round. We now know that the
Speaker 1: picks are five minutes per selection, so, uh, the Indianapolis
Speaker 1: Colts on the clock. But getting back to John Snyder
Speaker 1: playing in a rotating system. You know, we talk about
Speaker 1: Frank Clark. We've all loved the the ability, we all
Speaker 1: love the first step explosion. Then we all thought he
Speaker 1: was a second round player. I felt like on the
Speaker 1: Draft show and then some of the stuff that we
Speaker 1: were studying squeaky clean. If you put a one on him,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be mad at you. Yeah, I mean that.
Speaker 1: I just the ability was just too much. I mean,
Speaker 1: and and the fact that he was selected in the
Speaker 1: second round. I think that's the right spot for him.
Speaker 1: I really really do so good job by the Seattle
Speaker 1: Seahawks selecting a player that I love, Jordan Richardson. Like
Speaker 1: I said, I think there was probably a couple of
Speaker 1: more h safeties that we maybe would have thought a
Speaker 1: little bit better than George rich I know, I like
Speaker 1: the sample kid from Louis Ball. Keep bringing his name up. Uh,
Speaker 1: Darren Smith from Fresno was a guy that we talked about.
Speaker 1: Even the Swan kid from Georgia. Yeah, Holloman was not. No.
Speaker 1: I like football players that aren't cowards. But that's but
Speaker 1: that's the truth takes well, but that's what I'm saying. No,
Speaker 1: if you know Bill Belichick, he picked a guy that
Speaker 1: they could actually play. And I'm not arguing with you.
Speaker 1: I just love you, buddy. Can we can we go
Speaker 1: backwards for just a second, backwards them. Just the way
Speaker 1: that this whole thing has turned to me is fascinating,
Speaker 1: because I spent five hours on the radio today trying
Speaker 1: to talk people into why I think the Cowboys should
Speaker 1: and will take a running back in the second round.
Speaker 1: I've been on that train for about three months now,
Speaker 1: I'm right there with it, and I'm sitting there trying
Speaker 1: to explain it to everybody because everybody's talking about you've
Speaker 1: got to get a pass rusher, You've got to get
Speaker 1: a pass rusher. And my whole line was, I can't
Speaker 1: make them appear out of thin air. Once I get
Speaker 1: to sixty, I'm gonna have a better player at running back.
Speaker 1: Now it falls the exact opposite of everything we thought
Speaker 1: the runners are falling towards ninety one. The pass rusher
Speaker 1: that nobody thought would be there at sixty. The whole
Speaker 1: thing we said what everyone thought the value wasn't I
Speaker 1: didn't think the value would be there at twenty seven,
Speaker 1: and aside from Gregory, it really wasn't right. Which, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right either way. In the first three rounds.
Speaker 1: If you could get a corner, an edge rusher and
Speaker 1: running back and and no matter where it was, we
Speaker 1: were all gonna be happy with that. Plus that will
Speaker 1: be it's it's it's perfect. And now I wonder I'm
Speaker 1: gonna couch that and say, I mean again, we got
Speaker 1: a long way. Apends on the runner. It depends on
Speaker 1: the runner. I'm gonna I'm gonna feel a lot less
Speaker 1: excited if it's well. And I don't know if anybody is.
Speaker 1: Anybody did you say something about Mike Davis. I'm rather
Speaker 1: it's a football player, Okay? Would you at this point
Speaker 1: because we just named a couple of the runners. It
Speaker 1: depending on who you ask, they like him differently, but
Speaker 1: Duke and Tevin Coleman and maybe jay A Zay if
Speaker 1: you're the Cowboys. Now, are you looking at a spot where,
Speaker 1: whether it's something in this year's draft or next year's draft,
Speaker 1: that you think that that player is clearly a cut
Speaker 1: above that next group of running backs where you want
Speaker 1: to move up here? Is that? Is that something that
Speaker 1: you think about at some point as you watch how
Speaker 1: this plays out. I don't know. Sitting work, Sitting puts
Speaker 1: served you pretty well through two picks in the draft.
Speaker 1: I just I'm just looking at war room cam right now,
Speaker 1: and Jerry Jones leaning over talking to Jason Garrett, and
Speaker 1: and you know, he's it looks like he's having this
Speaker 1: fatherly talk with him, trying to explain, you know, the
Speaker 1: thoughts that they had and what they might do and
Speaker 1: then the planet. And I think that Garrett, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: he's listening very intently. He trusts Jerry Jones, he trusts
Speaker 1: these scouts. He knows it's his job to take this player.
Speaker 1: But to talk about tramp, I think now and as
Speaker 1: the cult selections up, let's go to it. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: let's go to select that John Smith. Okay, little cornerback,
Speaker 1: good player, good little corbette. But to get back, I
Speaker 1: could say, uh, you know, I think that to me
Speaker 1: if if they in fact they're gonna have to go
Speaker 1: through this whole thing and this this whole third round,
Speaker 1: and and maybe you do talk about that, maybe Jerry
Speaker 1: Jones has a plan to go get somebody like a
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson or Coleman or one of those guys, you know,
Speaker 1: and maybe he's talking to Garrett that and Jerry's one
Speaker 1: of those guys. He's a very Jerry's a very emotional
Speaker 1: type of a person, so he understands a little bit
Speaker 1: what Garrett might be going through right now with the player. Right,
Speaker 1: and we've we've gotten a lot of questions about this,
Speaker 1: so it's probably something worth looking out for. Two things.
Speaker 1: First of all, Jagie's knee scared you at sixty right, right?
Speaker 1: Does it scare you at ninety one? Well? I think
Speaker 1: that again. I always talking about the fourth round guys,
Speaker 1: you know I would talk about it. You know, players
Speaker 1: that are injured, are they you know, fourth round type
Speaker 1: of players? Uh? You know this, this kid has a situation.
Speaker 1: You cannot uh, you cannot fix his bone on bone.
Speaker 1: You know you've had terrible knee injuries myself. But he
Speaker 1: is one hundred percent healthy today. It could be next week,
Speaker 1: could be in five, ten years, and if it's in
Speaker 1: four years, you don't care. But that's the way these guys,
Speaker 1: The way these guys, uh go through a running back,
Speaker 1: You go through a four year running back and then
Speaker 1: you know, and then that's what you uh, you know,
Speaker 1: his contracts up and then away we go. So uh,
Speaker 1: you know, that's the kind of thing you have to consider. Right,
Speaker 1: And we've gotten plenty of reader questions about it. You
Speaker 1: both brought it up yourself, trading up. Is that a
Speaker 1: scenario that that you feel good about? Your ninety first
Speaker 1: pick is worth one hundred and thirty six points, your
Speaker 1: fourth round pick is worth forty five, and your fifth
Speaker 1: is worth twenty six. So all in all, you're looking
Speaker 1: at roughly two hundred points worth of value for your
Speaker 1: next three picks. Yeah, I think you've got You've gotten
Speaker 1: at least some time to figure it out though, right,
Speaker 1: you know. And I'm just one guy talking here on
Speaker 1: the on the radio and into the camera. Okay, it
Speaker 1: seems we got Randy Gregory, and we're gonna we're gonna
Speaker 1: shuffle out here and uh and Nick Eatman's gonna come
Speaker 1: and join us, and so we are gonna get a
Speaker 1: chance to visit with the newest member of the Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboy Uh of the Dallas Cowboys. Excuse me, Randy Gregory.
Speaker 1: And as Nick Eatman slides on the headset, UH, Douglas
Speaker 1: is gonna pipe us on in and so uh, here
Speaker 1: we go. Randy, are there here? Hello, Randy, It's Brian

Speaker 1: you on this football team. And there's a lot of
Speaker 1: guys here in this room they're very happy to have
Speaker 1: a guy that has elite pass rush talent. So talk
Speaker 1: about your journey to this point. It's ended very well
Speaker 1: for you though it really had you know, it's been
Speaker 1: a long one as you can imagine, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: some both flown the road, but uh, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: in a great spot right now with a great city,
Speaker 1: great team, great coaches, UM, just a great staff personnel,
Speaker 1: and I couldn't be more honored to you know, represent
Speaker 1: that kind of organization. Randy Hey, David Helman with Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys dot Com. Congratulations man, Um, just really, you know,
Speaker 1: obviously we've been watching this whole thing play out quite
Speaker 1: a ride for you. Um, can you just take us
Speaker 1: through your emotions. I imagine there's probably some low points
Speaker 1: there over these last two nights and then obviously ending
Speaker 1: on a big high. Just kind of what you've been
Speaker 1: experiencing up to getting picked. I mean exactly what you expect,
Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of disappointment, um, you know
Speaker 1: last night, but uh, you know, I after sitting down
Speaker 1: and and really you know, thinking about it was real
Speaker 1: humbling for me, you know, and it's I'm glad I
Speaker 1: actually went to the draft experienced this and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, I couldn't be more honored. And you know,
Speaker 1: it was definitely worth the wait, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: all the other emotions, all the bad emotions that came
Speaker 1: with it, it was definitely worth because I definitely feel
Speaker 1: like I'm a great organization and great sass. Hey Randy,
Speaker 1: this is a Nick Eatman from the Dallas Cowboys website.
Speaker 1: Can you talk about your meetings with the Cowboys there
Speaker 1: leading up to this, whether visits here or at the
Speaker 1: combine or just did you get a sense that Dallas
Speaker 1: would be one of those teams interested? Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 1: You know, I met with him with the top thirty visits,
Speaker 1: and uh, I felt like it probably went the best
Speaker 1: out of all my visits, especially you know, me with
Speaker 1: coach Marinelli, and I think me and him, um, you know,
Speaker 1: we we definitely click, you know, He's the type of
Speaker 1: coach I need, type of coach I want and I like,
Speaker 1: and uh, he's gonna push me to the limits. You're
Speaker 1: gonna give me to the level I need to be
Speaker 1: a help this team out and get the team where
Speaker 1: they need to be. And you know, they have great ownership,
Speaker 1: and I just I can't say how much I'm honored,
Speaker 1: you know, to be a part of this organization, really
Speaker 1: can Randy, you know, and we're joined here by Randy Gregory,
Speaker 1: the newly acquired UH defensive end, very talented defensive end
Speaker 1: for from the University of Nebraska, and Randy, you know,
Speaker 1: when we get the opportunity and I and I'm a
Speaker 1: former NFL scout and I dragged these guys all into
Speaker 1: the to my room there and let him watch tape
Speaker 1: with me. And the one thing that we get really
Speaker 1: excited about watching you play football is your ability to
Speaker 1: capture that edge and get around it. And you know,
Speaker 1: you're one of those guys that you know from an
Speaker 1: outstanding program though as coach Marinelli or those guys in
Speaker 1: your thirty visit, when they took in that room, they
Speaker 1: talk about some of the plans that they might have
Speaker 1: for you when you got that opportunity to come this direction. Definitely.
Speaker 1: You know, we sat now for a long time watch film, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, watch a little a little bit of film
Speaker 1: with them, and uh, watch a lot of Simi and Rights.
Speaker 1: You know, sim I don't reminded Hill of Simion Rights,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know I have to watching him the
Speaker 1: definitely guy. I want to know Monel myself after and
Speaker 1: it's I just really feel like I can really help
Speaker 1: this team out. You know, I think I've done a
Speaker 1: lot of couge level, but I definitely think, um, you know,
Speaker 1: that staff can get me to a whole nother level.
Speaker 1: I think I haven't scratched the surface yet and I'm
Speaker 1: really excited to get a part of this organization. Randy.
Speaker 1: One of the things that some people talk about with you,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna talk about the things that you want
Speaker 1: to see somebody improve at or a possible concern is
Speaker 1: just the weight that you play at as a possible
Speaker 1: defensive end and the two hundred and thirty five pound range.
Speaker 1: Have they talked to you about trying to put on
Speaker 1: weight or is that something that you feel like you
Speaker 1: can play at that weight and still be effective at
Speaker 1: defensive end? Well, I think I've been you know, effective
Speaker 1: to a certain extent, you know, at that weight, but
Speaker 1: that's definitely not the way I want to play it.
Speaker 1: You know, You're definitely gonna put some more weight on me,
Speaker 1: and you know it's a work in progress, and I
Speaker 1: definitely feel like, you know, like I said, I can
Speaker 1: play at that position. You know, whether you know I'm
Speaker 1: two forty five, two fifty whatever it is, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get after the quarterback and that's you know,
Speaker 1: that's what they want me to do. Randy, you talked
Speaker 1: about bumps in the road. What what did you tell
Speaker 1: specifically the Cowboys and Jason Garrett Jerry Jones on giving
Speaker 1: them the confidence that you can overcome those things and
Speaker 1: you will be the right kind of guy that Jason
Speaker 1: Garrett always preaches about. Well, I think, you know, it
Speaker 1: kind of started with the fact that, um, you know,
Speaker 1: I made a stake. I really didn't make a mistake.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, UM, you know, I felt
Speaker 1: like they saw me as a still a high character guy.
Speaker 1: Um that made it the mistake mistake. You know, I'm young,
Speaker 1: I'm twenty two. Um, you know, I just this whole
Speaker 1: process has really opened up my eyes. And you know,
Speaker 1: one of the big things was sitting in front of
Speaker 1: you know, Jerry Jones and this guy I've looked at
Speaker 1: for so long, and um, you know, me and him
Speaker 1: really had a heart and heart and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I left it that day. I really felt like that
Speaker 1: was a team I need to be with. And um
Speaker 1: that's the truth, it really is. You know, I couldn't
Speaker 1: I couldn't be more honor. You know. It's funny how
Speaker 1: things work. Um, I was joking about it earlier. I
Speaker 1: was wearing red and white, you know, yesterday because of Nebraska,
Speaker 1: and then today I was wearing uh blue with silver
Speaker 1: and white. My age and my dad and my brother.
Speaker 1: It was it was just weird, you know. And uh,
Speaker 1: I'm glad everything, you know, worked out the way it did, Randy,
Speaker 1: you know, and and as we as we go forward
Speaker 1: here now, you know, and and again we've talked about
Speaker 1: your elite play and stuff like that, and you went
Speaker 1: through this first round in draft. You talk about the
Speaker 1: humbling experience. Though, does Randy Gregory come to Dallas with
Speaker 1: a big chip on his shoulder right now? Of all
Speaker 1: the fun you know it and and the and the
Speaker 1: thing is the organization cares and stuff like that. The
Speaker 1: players who you know, Jerry Jones, does you know? So
Speaker 1: it's it's it's me perfect and um, you know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna come in here with that same mentality, and uh,
Speaker 1: like I said, we're gonna throw up the elite goes.
Speaker 1: All right, Randy, We're gonna let you go out. One
Speaker 1: quick question. One of the quarterbacks you're gonna be trying
Speaker 1: to to uh sack is r G three? Now are
Speaker 1: you r G one? RG? What is that? You know,
Speaker 1: an initial that they throw at you. Yeah, thats to
Speaker 1: call you RG, but you know you can't do too
Speaker 1: much with it. And already three he's kind of already
Speaker 1: got that go on for him. But uh yeah, I
Speaker 1: definitely will go after him, you know I will. I
Speaker 1: will try to sack as much as I can. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not too worried about the nickname. But all right,
Speaker 1: maybe I can get a nickname, you know, after I
Speaker 1: get a few seconds the league. Awesome. All right, Well
Speaker 1: that's Randy Gregory, the newest Dallas Cowboys defensive vent for
Speaker 1: everybody here. But we really appreciate absolutely you've given us
Speaker 1: some time here and good luck to you here in Dallas.
Speaker 1: Congrats man, thank you, appreciate you at all right, good luck,
Speaker 1: all right, Randy Gregory, he's a first round guy, I mean,
Speaker 1: but he's a player too, is a first round player too.
Speaker 1: And again, the off the field things he's gonna have
Speaker 1: to address. He's talked about a humbling experience, and we
Speaker 1: we kind of talked about this with Byron Jones obviously
Speaker 1: opposite opposite, Oh yeah, completely, But you know when a
Speaker 1: guy can have a moment like that and everything that's
Speaker 1: gone on with him in the last two days and
Speaker 1: come on here and he just lost millions of dollars. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he went through you know, I don't want I mean,
Speaker 1: his draft stock fell, all this scrutiny, all this stuff.
Speaker 1: He has a elation when he finally gets picked everything,
Speaker 1: and then he comes on here and gives very direct, honest,
Speaker 1: open answers, really well thought out answers. You know that
Speaker 1: that says a lot to me, that that he's got
Speaker 1: that kind of composure employees immediately after all this crazy
Speaker 1: emotional stuff just happened. I do have one thing and
Speaker 1: I wouldn't maybe I should have said that to him
Speaker 1: or ask him about it. He says he he made
Speaker 1: a mistake. Yeah, he's made more than one though, right.
Speaker 1: I mean that's kind of why we're here where we are.
Speaker 1: I mean, Shane Ray kind of made one, yeah, and
Speaker 1: this guy's made a little bit more than one. It
Speaker 1: was more of a pattern of mistakes, which I think
Speaker 1: is kind of a lot. I think it's real important
Speaker 1: for us. And you ask the questions of him now,
Speaker 1: But when you get to see a man face to
Speaker 1: face and you can kind of see, you know, ask
Speaker 1: him the questions and see how he reacts and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, And I think that's what you'll know a
Speaker 1: lot about Randy Gregory as a person. If he can
Speaker 1: answer that question, look at you in the face and say, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm a I'm a I did I was wrong. I
Speaker 1: feel bad. You know. That's where I think you'll know
Speaker 1: a lot about it. But he's still he's got a
Speaker 1: he's got a lot of hurdles. In my opinion, he's
Speaker 1: still gonna Here's here's a I had a conversation with
Speaker 1: a guy today that deals with some of these players
Speaker 1: and a lot of things they go through on and
Speaker 1: off the field. He says that when you're dealing with
Speaker 1: the with the program, I guess and he'll probably come
Speaker 1: right into the program. Absolutely. Um, it's it's it's not
Speaker 1: so much how many tests you fail or whatever, it's
Speaker 1: the progress you make and the willingness to work with them.
Speaker 1: Are you gonna go to rehab? Are you gonna go
Speaker 1: to counseling? Are you gonna to be there, show up
Speaker 1: on time? If you show the effort, they are pretty
Speaker 1: lenient there. So he's got to have that attitude that
Speaker 1: we saw and say, you know what I want, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna mess this up again, and I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: let down Jerry Jones and the Cowboys. And if he
Speaker 1: can do that, that's the hope. He's gone a shot.
Speaker 1: I mean, oh, one more thing to that. The guy.
Speaker 1: The guy said this is most important. We've drafted players
Speaker 1: with much worse. Yeah, I believe that completely. I have
Speaker 1: no prop And now why are we doing this? Well,
Speaker 1: they probably retired of us commenting about what's going on
Speaker 1: in time. I don't know is are the two backs
Speaker 1: still on the board? Yes, well they were when I
Speaker 1: mean we've been kind of pani. Yeah, let me go
Speaker 1: back and we're two Oakland's pick is gonna come up here,
Speaker 1: and uh, we talked about the Colts at sixty five
Speaker 1: took John Smith uh from the quarterback from Central Florida. Uh.
Speaker 1: Tennessee was next. They took Jeremiah uh Putassi, the tackle
Speaker 1: from Utah. That was Tennessee took, and then Jacksonville took
Speaker 1: h at sixty seven took the guard aj Can, the
Speaker 1: center guard from h from South Carolina. And then we're
Speaker 1: waiting right now here for the Oakland Raiders pick. That
Speaker 1: will be at number sixty eight. I will I will
Speaker 1: say that fourth to go right now. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's enough. Well, here's the Redskins. Well, it looks
Speaker 1: like the Okay, the Redskins have made a deal. They're
Speaker 1: behind Oakland, so it looks like the Seahawks have come forward.
Speaker 1: The Seahawks gonna take. It's gonna take me a minute too, Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: hitch up to everything that's happened. This is this will
Speaker 1: be the Raiders selection, So let's go to it. Kent
Speaker 1: Garrison from Northwestern University the twenty third overall pick in
Speaker 1: the two thousand and two draft by the Raiders. Linebacker
Speaker 1: and Illinois senator Napoleon Harris, Thank you. With the sixty
Speaker 1: eighth pick into two thousand and fifteen NFL Draft, the
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders select Clive Walford, tidy end, University of Miami.
Speaker 1: So Clive Walford number two tight ended. Yeah, Clive Walford.
Speaker 1: And he's one from my favorite places if you're a
Speaker 1: player from this particular city in Florida, I'm drafting to high.
Speaker 1: He's from bell Glade, Florida. And I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: all great footall players come from Belleglade, Florida. But anyway,
Speaker 1: how did Miami not win more games? Well? Clide Walford though,
Speaker 1: let me and we've watched Clide Walford play. I personally
Speaker 1: I love him. I had him right there behind Max Williams.
Speaker 1: When you talk about a guy that is a better
Speaker 1: point of attack blocker than you think a tie up guy.
Speaker 1: He's a finisher though, but I like his athletic ability.
Speaker 1: I like the way time. But as far as a
Speaker 1: red zone player, this guy makes a lot of really
Speaker 1: nice plays down in the red zone. They throw him
Speaker 1: stuff underneath, you could throw him stuff in the corner,
Speaker 1: you can throw him stuff, you know, really all over feel.
Speaker 1: He's got a solid set of hands, makes a lot
Speaker 1: of spectacular plays. I think that the Raiders. Once again,
Speaker 1: they went out and got him, a very athletic player
Speaker 1: that can help. Yeah. I'll tell you what, if you
Speaker 1: told me you thought he was the best tight end
Speaker 1: in this draft, I wouldn't fight you too hard on it.
Speaker 1: I think the red zone stuff that you're talking about
Speaker 1: was it's really really good that when they get him
Speaker 1: going down the field and they just leave a ball
Speaker 1: up high, that's a guy that's gonna go get the
Speaker 1: football and he's gonna compete for it and he'll go
Speaker 1: he'll do it through content. Okay, here's the Seattle Seahawks
Speaker 1: selections now in fifteen NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks. So
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett, Wow, Tyler Lockett, and there they go. Tyler Lockett.
Speaker 1: We've talked about him as well, the very talented wide
Speaker 1: receiver from Kansas State. Shorter guy, explosive player though, Katie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's very explosive player. And they gave up a lot
Speaker 1: to get up there, so you know, they wanted to,
Speaker 1: you know, help out the offense a little bit. Um
Speaker 1: good route runner, he catches everything with his hands, will
Speaker 1: go up and snatch it, even though he's a little frail,
Speaker 1: you know, five ten one eighty. Yeah, but he's shifty.
Speaker 1: He's gonna help out on special teams. I would assume
Speaker 1: he's there. He's gonna step in and be their kick
Speaker 1: returner and punt returner. That's a dangerous weapon for a
Speaker 1: team that traded away Percy Harvin last year. They've got
Speaker 1: a good player who's gonna help out and pretty much
Speaker 1: all facets to the offense. If I can throw it
Speaker 1: back to Randy Gregory, yes, um, well yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: you know the Cowboys picture. I just thought it was
Speaker 1: I mean, I thought, really interesting interview overall. Um, and
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't it doesn't solidify or cement anything.
Speaker 1: But and you know, we saw this with Byron Jones today.
Speaker 1: We know what lies in front of him. You know,
Speaker 1: he's talking to the Dallas media right now. Picks in, Dave,
Speaker 1: excuse me. The second for the Houston Texans, with the
Speaker 1: seventh pick into twenty fifteen NFL Draft. The Houston Texans said,
Speaker 1: let Jalen Strong. There he goes receiver. But okay, this
Speaker 1: pick was originally was the New York Jets pick. So
Speaker 1: you got the Houston Texans, uh jumping up here, making
Speaker 1: a little bit of a jump. Uh, going from their
Speaker 1: spot in eighty two uh to going to the New
Speaker 1: York Jets to grab Jalen Strong and go ahead and
Speaker 1: finish your point and we'll get into jails. That was
Speaker 1: a great step in the right direction for him. And
Speaker 1: Nick talked before he got off the air just about
Speaker 1: you know, commitment, accountability, kind of moving in one direction,
Speaker 1: showing that you care about correcting the things that made
Speaker 1: you slip in the draft in the first place. I
Speaker 1: just think that was a great step. I don't know
Speaker 1: if he keeps it up and maintains that over the
Speaker 1: course of the next you know, well several years, but
Speaker 1: also the next five or six months, you know, but
Speaker 1: I think that's at least a great one step in
Speaker 1: the right direction. Obviously, I was I was advocating for
Speaker 1: not taking an hour, hour and a half. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of people that were that felt the same way
Speaker 1: as you. But and you know, like it's going to
Speaker 1: take a lot more than that to convince me that
Speaker 1: I was wrong in my opinion. But that's a great
Speaker 1: way to start out, basically, is what I'm trying to say. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it's just it's risk reward at twenty seven. The
Speaker 1: things that you're saying when they're true. The concerns that
Speaker 1: you have at twenty seven, they're magnified at twenty seven.
Speaker 1: It's enough to make you say, well, I'm not comfortable
Speaker 1: taking the player. And you get to sixty and you
Speaker 1: have those same concerns and you got somebody in your
Speaker 1: other ear who says, right, but remember remember when he
Speaker 1: was a top ten player before he failed that drug test.
Speaker 1: That's a great point. The risk reward is it changes
Speaker 1: as you go and it's sixty, you know, And I'm
Speaker 1: a guy that I love the runner Duke Johnson. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I wanted Duke Johnson in this draft. But when Gregory
Speaker 1: makes it to sixties, yeah, I'm kind of like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I you've got to get your pass rush. Brian's whole
Speaker 1: mantra this entire time is keep an open mind. I
Speaker 1: mean that's what he always says. So, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: and like I said, I'll be happy to eat crow
Speaker 1: about the guy, and you know, I I hope I do,
Speaker 1: because it means he's a good player and that, you know,
Speaker 1: I guess that's one step in the process of of
Speaker 1: of making me ecrow, of winning people over, I guess,
Speaker 1: and everything you'd heard is that the environment was so
Speaker 1: important to him. If he goes to a place that
Speaker 1: he's a happy person, and no matter what you know
Speaker 1: is going on with him, you go to a place
Speaker 1: where he's a happy person, you can bring out the
Speaker 1: most and him. And also let Rod Marinelli get his
Speaker 1: hands on him. Let's see what we can do. And
Speaker 1: also we need to get him some food. I mean,
Speaker 1: he'll eat plenty of food here, guys. Some barbecue, absolutely,
Speaker 1: But I have confidence in this organization's ability to create
Speaker 1: a good environment for guy. And the reason I asked
Speaker 1: him the question about the chip on the shoulder, you know,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I would right before you ask that question.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the most scrutinized guy in this draft,
Speaker 1: right behind jameis Winstea. And I mean having that many
Speaker 1: million people dissect you and talk about your every move
Speaker 1: as though they know you has got to be a
Speaker 1: really frustrating experience. Okay, let's go to We got the
Speaker 1: secret audio of Jerry Jones's call to Randy Gregory. Brandy Gregory,
Speaker 1: Sir Jason Garrett here, I was a gone coach. It's
Speaker 1: going great. Congratulations. I appreciate it because I'm gonna make
Speaker 1: you proud. I can promise. I know you will. I
Speaker 1: know you are. You're ready to get to work. Let's
Speaker 1: do it, man, I'm ready to win a championship. We've
Speaker 1: got the fools. Take it one day at a time.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get you right, We're gonna help our foots.
Speaker 1: So let's do it. Okay man, We're handing the phone
Speaker 1: to Rod Marinelli. Congratulations, thank you. Okay man, Hey Strett,
Speaker 1: how are you doing? How are you well? You've gotten
Speaker 1: so many messages for him me, I might as well
Speaker 1: talk to you. Huh. Hey, you know, like I said,
Speaker 1: I was thinking the other day and I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: really he felt like when I left, I said, you know,
Speaker 1: the best possible to guy, that's really gonna get me
Speaker 1: where I need to go to help me help this
Speaker 1: team out the best well, and I can't. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: make you guys, so I know you will. Hey, gonna
Speaker 1: let you down. Let's dig in now. It's every single
Speaker 1: day and you gotta go. Okay, that's what I'm counting
Speaker 1: on now. Okay, I'm gonna I'm here for you too. Hey,
Speaker 1: be hard on him. I'm gonna be as hard as
Speaker 1: you can that well, so hey, you handled today really well.
Speaker 1: All right, all right, cod Okay, you know Jason, I said,
Speaker 1: Jason Jerry Jones, but Jason Garrett obviously first. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: and that's something again sounding it sounds like a very
Speaker 1: sincere man. When we got to talk to him, Uh,
Speaker 1: he's uh, he's very happy. He seems very relieved. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, but again, Dave, you like talking about it
Speaker 1: every day. You know, it's going to be a new
Speaker 1: challenge for him. Yeah, and how he plays will be important.
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell is at the podium right now for the
Speaker 1: Chicago selection m H to make the Bears announcement. Please
Speaker 1: welcome Sam, Thank you, Commissioner Goodell. With the seventy first
Speaker 1: pick in the twenty fifteen NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears
Speaker 1: select Hernus Grassoo Center from Oregon. There you go, Brasso.
Speaker 1: I kind of thought that's what Seattle was trading up
Speaker 1: for at sixty nine. Absolutely. Okay, Well that's a grass
Speaker 1: through the center. We liked him, we position blocker. But
Speaker 1: let's go back before we get to into the grass
Speaker 1: su Let's go back and talk about Jalen Strong if
Speaker 1: we could. And that pick that goes to the to
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans at number seventy. They made a trade
Speaker 1: with the New York Jets. Jeff Jalen Strong is a
Speaker 1: guy that we we've kind of busted on about. You know,
Speaker 1: there's been some quarters in and the PAC twelve that
Speaker 1: in fact have covered him and sen at UCLA, Nelson
Speaker 1: at Oregon State. Um, I'll tell you what Peters. Peters, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that he went right about where he belongs.
Speaker 1: You know, for all the guys talking about him as
Speaker 1: a first round pick, there's a lot of good in
Speaker 1: that player. You know, the size, a guy that's over
Speaker 1: six two, he's two seventeen, a four four guy. When
Speaker 1: you look at those measurable as you said, that's a
Speaker 1: really good player. You watch them run the back shoulder fade.
Speaker 1: You put him on a team that runs that back
Speaker 1: shoulder fade and he'll go get a contested ball. He
Speaker 1: knows how to use his body, he knows how to
Speaker 1: adjust to the football on that. But when we saw
Speaker 1: him against the best level of competition you were going
Speaker 1: to see him against, he had some struggles to get open.
Speaker 1: So the good is in there. You know, he lined
Speaker 1: up everywhere. He'll go underneath, he's got speed, if you
Speaker 1: can find him in space. There's a whole lot of good.
Speaker 1: But you go watch him play against the best competition.
Speaker 1: He played against the guys that are gonna be in
Speaker 1: the NFL, and I thought he had some struggles to
Speaker 1: get open when he's on the outside. Yeah, he used
Speaker 1: his body well and he's going to take the spot
Speaker 1: of you know, Andre Johnson at some point. Right, maybe
Speaker 1: Hopkins lives up to some of his potential. It's kind
Speaker 1: of more of the explosive guy, and Jalen Strong is
Speaker 1: kind of more of your possession type of receiver, a
Speaker 1: big body and makes a lot of sense to give
Speaker 1: someone a from one of their quarterbacks. I guess they
Speaker 1: have horrier now right to throw too, right, Well, that's
Speaker 1: to me again. There was a lot of good I
Speaker 1: thought of the player, but that I love the size.
Speaker 1: I do like his ability. There was time where he
Speaker 1: would snatch the football. You'd see on those inside routes
Speaker 1: where you know, when it was a little bit of
Speaker 1: a contest he catch. But I think getting off the line,
Speaker 1: that's something he's gonna have to learn. That's something he's
Speaker 1: gonna have to develop. You know, these NFL corners, they
Speaker 1: do not want to give you a bunch of room.
Speaker 1: They want to they want to start, they want to
Speaker 1: stop you at the line. They want to make you
Speaker 1: have to restart. Can Jalen Strong beat press coverage initially
Speaker 1: and then accelerate down the field separation and give the separation?
Speaker 1: And I thought that that affected him. That's one of
Speaker 1: the notes I have in here is that when you
Speaker 1: can't get off the line of scrimmage, when you can't
Speaker 1: get clean off of a guy and threaten him up
Speaker 1: the field, it hurt him on his ability to separate
Speaker 1: on his end routes and on his out routes. Because
Speaker 1: if you have a guy that is able to get
Speaker 1: his hands on you that well and ride you up
Speaker 1: or down the field, they can react to your route.
Speaker 1: So it's just it makes it harder to get separation.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be big for him, Yeah, And I think
Speaker 1: that's why, you you know, people initially talked about him
Speaker 1: as a first round type of player. You know, there's
Speaker 1: a there's been wide receivers that have gone into the
Speaker 1: seconds and second and third rounds and become very productive
Speaker 1: NFL receivers, and he can be one. He can And
Speaker 1: I think there was a lot of talent there. I
Speaker 1: just but I do think that the concerns that we're
Speaker 1: all voicing is something that Jalen Strong is going to
Speaker 1: have to work with. Okay, we talk about Grassou the
Speaker 1: the center from Oregon. I myself watching him block one
Speaker 1: on one, I saw a guy that was a very
Speaker 1: good position blocker, second level blocker, real handsy type of guy. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, the Bears, here's the team that we you know,
Speaker 1: they they've a little long at center with Garza, you know,
Speaker 1: moving on from there, having to get some young guys
Speaker 1: up in that offensive line though. But a guy that
Speaker 1: is a very good position block kind of your typical
Speaker 1: kind of Oregon offensive lineman. He's not in malanknock in
Speaker 1: a mall. Yeah, just kind of cut you off getting away. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we saw that too with Fisher. Okay, the pick
Speaker 1: is now in. This is gonna be the Saint Louis
Speaker 1: ram Ms will be on the clock. So here we're
Speaker 1: gonna twenty fifteen NFL Draft, the Saint Louis Rams select
Speaker 1: Jamon Brown, tackle Louisville. Jamon Brown did we did? Okay,
Speaker 1: So we get into the seventy third pick and Jamal Brown,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna try and find me some notes
Speaker 1: that I had on Jamal Brown because I'm trying to
Speaker 1: think I know he was in some All Star Game stuff. Well,
Speaker 1: I can tell you this is gonna be the first
Speaker 1: pick ro I'm stumped forty one trade. Now that you
Speaker 1: guys said it, who the hell is this guy? I
Speaker 1: was gonna act like I knew who who he was
Speaker 1: and sounds smart Day three type guy. Uh, we're kind
Speaker 1: of thinking Jamon Brown, though I don't. Did we I'm
Speaker 1: trying jumping out, jumping out at me because he is.
Speaker 1: I could just rattle off a bunch of really good
Speaker 1: things about offensive tackles, but Jamon Brown. Saint Louis thinks
Speaker 1: they're being real smart right now. Well they they they
Speaker 1: drafted one of the best running backs in the draft. Well,
Speaker 1: the best running back in the draft. So let's uh,
Speaker 1: I didn't think of DIGGI zooa, Duke Johnson, Bryce Petty,
Speaker 1: Brett Hunley, T. J. Clemings, Carl Davis, P. J. Williams,
Speaker 1: Eli Harold, Michael Bennett. We're gonna be on the board
Speaker 1: and hear Jamon Brown, Eli Harold. But it happened, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just happened. Yeah, well, I I just this is
Speaker 1: where this is the point in time where you hope
Speaker 1: you have somebody around you. This is where this is
Speaker 1: where you need Dane. Where's Dan Dan? We have Dane
Speaker 1: right here? Yeah, I mean names book will give you
Speaker 1: the give you the summary. Um, he didn't go to
Speaker 1: the combine because he had a lower body strain. Where
Speaker 1: did this guy go to school? All right, John Miller,
Speaker 1: that's the guards know. It's great. Like a week ago,
Speaker 1: I told you and Jeff to get the hell out
Speaker 1: of the office and stop watching table. We should have
Speaker 1: stayed and watched John, like somebody's gonna slip through the cracks. Well,
Speaker 1: here we go it. Pick it. Pick seven at seventy one,
Speaker 1: not two, not one, seventy one. Say this, there's where
Speaker 1: we're kind of waiting. Though. For each player that goes
Speaker 1: by that's not Tevin Coleman or Duke Johnson really kind
Speaker 1: of high five each other. I gotta believe they put
Speaker 1: the thing back up over the cam because they're up
Speaker 1: to something. Well, now I didn't miss anything, did I.
Speaker 1: Carl Davis is still there too. He is still the
Speaker 1: Carl Davis is still there. So I got three survivors
Speaker 1: from my group that I was comfortable with. Six, let's
Speaker 1: talk about the guys that we do know and Atlanta
Speaker 1: now on the clock. But Atlanta was a team that
Speaker 1: we were worried about that as a running back. The
Speaker 1: type of a team, Yeah, that's DeVante Freeman. That's their
Speaker 1: depth chart basically. So I think that you know, we
Speaker 1: hear it right here. We've talked, we've talked about, we've
Speaker 1: talked about, we've talked about these running backs. We thought
Speaker 1: it might be a second round run. It's it's looking
Speaker 1: like more in the third round. Uh, you know, if
Speaker 1: in fact a guy like Tavin Coleman goes, if in fact,
Speaker 1: you know, if we get Duke Johnson to go. But
Speaker 1: Atlanta was a team that we talked about meeting a
Speaker 1: running back, and Katie, you said, who was there? Who's
Speaker 1: their depth chart on the Who's it's it's DeVante Freeman
Speaker 1: from Florida State and it's Antoine Smith. Yeah, and that
Speaker 1: makes too much sense for me. Yeah, it makes way
Speaker 1: too much sense. It's just too much value at these
Speaker 1: running backs right now. It's just I can't believe it.
Speaker 1: Do we overvalue that? We wrong? Like we're we so
Speaker 1: focused on the need at running back. Though we're not wrong.
Speaker 1: I don't believe we're not wrong. This is a really
Speaker 1: good cropper, and it's hard for me to say that
Speaker 1: we did overvalue it because two guys went in the
Speaker 1: top twenty. You know, Yeah, two guys went in the
Speaker 1: top twenty, So maybe maybe everybody just kind of assumed
Speaker 1: that their guy would be there. I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: I'm very surprised that at least one of these two
Speaker 1: guys hasn't been taken by sixty and yelled Yelden was
Speaker 1: taken right at the top of the second round. So
Speaker 1: it's not like nobody's interested. But I'm stunned that Tevin
Speaker 1: Coleman is still there. I'll tell you that. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: didn't think they'd get to sixty, and we're sitting here
Speaker 1: hoping that they fall to ninety. I mean, it's shot.
Speaker 1: We're just gonna sit here and hope. Okay, where are
Speaker 1: we We're not gonna complain, We're gonna sit here and hope. No,
Speaker 1: don't be a woss Tell me right, And like how
Speaker 1: when when can we where? When can we start talking
Speaker 1: about a trade when one of them we probably well,
Speaker 1: you're gonna lose one here so when one of them go,
Speaker 1: where do you feel comfortable moving to? Where do you
Speaker 1: We're at seventy three, they have the ninety first pick.
Speaker 1: What's my five worth? And how far? You're five? Of
Speaker 1: your five is worth twenty six points? How far does
Speaker 1: twenty six get me up in the round? Twenty six
Speaker 1: could get you to about the eighty eight or eighty
Speaker 1: seventh pick. So not far, not far at all. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm giving you next year's pick. Come on, I'm coming
Speaker 1: for you. What about what about your fourth? You're not
Speaker 1: interested in moving your fatch? What worth? Again? Give me
Speaker 1: some matham? The four you're four is worth forty five.
Speaker 1: You combine that with your third, you've got one hundred
Speaker 1: and oh one hundred and eighty one points. Yeah, here's
Speaker 1: the commissioner. Excuse me, I looks like that they've taken
Speaker 1: o a commissioner longer make it big fits the Falcons.
Speaker 1: With to seventy third pick in the two thousand and
Speaker 1: fifteen NFL Draft, the Atlanta Falcons select Tevin Coleman. Dang it, well,
Speaker 1: here's the on. It wouldn't Duke. I'm not actually I like,
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna pretend like I'm pissed off. He's
Speaker 1: he's still here in seventy three. He was supposed to
Speaker 1: go at forty three. It's hard for me to act
Speaker 1: like it's some big disappointment that hurts right there. I
Speaker 1: will brought I mean brought us his pets. Well, let
Speaker 1: me tell you this though. I I had this kid
Speaker 1: in the second round. I think when you start talking
Speaker 1: about the second best back in the draft, this was
Speaker 1: my kid. And I'm like, again, another team that I
Speaker 1: get to walk down the field and watch this kid
Speaker 1: warm up next season when he comes to AT and
Speaker 1: T Stadium. So they are all coming here, All of
Speaker 1: the guys that we wanted are winding up on teams
Speaker 1: that are playing the Cowboys. Yeah, and and but I
Speaker 1: will say this, the kid. You know when you when
Speaker 1: you Matt Ryan, you're gonna be able to hand the
Speaker 1: ball to this kid. You're gonna be able to to
Speaker 1: let him run and the zone runner. He's productive, he
Speaker 1: could beat angles, he can catch the football. You know,
Speaker 1: there's there's so many positive things about this player. And
Speaker 1: the fact that he played on a bad toe and
Speaker 1: got as many yards as he did, I think says
Speaker 1: an awful lot about the situation that he was dealt.
Speaker 1: We watched the tape that that Indiana offensive line just
Speaker 1: no bueno and that to me, and hey, there's another
Speaker 1: one of my buddies down there in Atlanta, Tommy Dimitroff Thomas, Congratulations,
Speaker 1: you got you a hell of a football player right there.
Speaker 1: I wish that he could have had a star on
Speaker 1: his helmet, but that's not going to be the case
Speaker 1: right now. All right, So all right, you guys talk.
Speaker 1: I'm no, no, no, because I want to talk about
Speaker 1: what you're talking about. Because we've nailed this draft so far.
Speaker 1: We sat on the patient we got We didn't twenty seven.
Speaker 1: We were gonna get our corner. We got him. We
Speaker 1: waited at sixty patiently, perfectly, and got our pass rusher.
Speaker 1: My runner is not leaving this board. We're finding a
Speaker 1: way to go up. We need to do some math
Speaker 1: and we need to go get Duke Johnson. All right,
Speaker 1: that's what we need. You're starting to panic a little. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm standing. We're going to get Duke Johnson. Figure
Speaker 1: out the math. Okay, Well, here we go. We got
Speaker 1: a pick in you're for the New York Giants. Here
Speaker 1: we go, can't we got to pick for the Giants.
Speaker 1: And it looks like we're not gonna get the pick
Speaker 1: for the Giants because Kent's in there visiting with our boss.
Speaker 1: So great, can't while you're in there with the boss,
Speaker 1: y'all figure out how we're gonna get up to get
Speaker 1: Duke jump. Will we just miss but we'll just miss it?
Speaker 1: Oh dig Zo, the guys we've been talking about for
Speaker 1: an hour and a half, we're finally starting to get picked.
Speaker 1: Oh Diggi Zuwa is the is the selection by the
Speaker 1: New York Giants. So here's another guy that you get
Speaker 1: to face twice a year. I think, Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 1: a good They're all going to cowboys, Like what's going on?
Speaker 1: You sound like they're playing in right now? They going on? Katie,
Speaker 1: talk to me a bill about about Oz. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: he's a he's a good player. Um, probably gonna play
Speaker 1: left defensive end, so probably gonna play on that side.
Speaker 1: More of a run stoppers and you know, to me,
Speaker 1: it's kind of more of a guy that you're gonna
Speaker 1: maybe put across from to Marcus Lawrence if you were
Speaker 1: if he was a cowboy. Um he wasn't. I didn't
Speaker 1: see him unleashed a lot on film, you know, to
Speaker 1: where he was just hey, sit back and maybe it
Speaker 1: was a scheme thing, scheme thing all the way you'll
Speaker 1: get the quarterback. We didn't see a whole lot of that,
Speaker 1: but he was an impressive player, a guy I think
Speaker 1: on our board you know we had in the second
Speaker 1: we have, yeah, but he was a guy that we thought,
Speaker 1: you know, there could be some interested at defensive end.
Speaker 1: But uh, I'll take Gregory over O DIGGI zoos. We're
Speaker 1: talking about it that way. It's a it's a good
Speaker 1: combination of the athleticism and the right sort of size,
Speaker 1: a guy that's over six three, a guy that's two
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy pounds, and when you talk about the
Speaker 1: measurables and how he is a fairly explosive athlete for
Speaker 1: a guy that you're talking about at left defensive end,
Speaker 1: and you mentioned that maybe they didn't ask him to
Speaker 1: do it a lot, but I think that is a
Speaker 1: guy that shows you the ability to do both the
Speaker 1: ability to be strong enough to stand up an offensive
Speaker 1: lineman and play the run and the ability to rush
Speaker 1: the pastor a little bit so in that spot in
Speaker 1: the third round, I think that makes sense, and I
Speaker 1: think that's a good pick. Well, o DIGGI ZOOI. He
Speaker 1: will be a New York Giant come this time. We'll
Speaker 1: see him next this season. Excuse me rushing as the
Speaker 1: Giants have always done a night job with there, with
Speaker 1: those pressure players. And yeah, I think I think KT's
Speaker 1: right about the player. When you talk about him, it's
Speaker 1: like he almost played him as a two gap guy
Speaker 1: instead of just the wider you put him and the
Speaker 1: more you allow him to get up the field, the
Speaker 1: better shot he has when he plays as a head up.
Speaker 1: Why a head up like a head up a five
Speaker 1: technique and tries to two gap and he can't play
Speaker 1: that way. You could kick him down inside two. You know,
Speaker 1: you watch the US right from three a little bit,
Speaker 1: you can. You can watch the USC game. That's really productive.
Speaker 1: I didn't think he was a productive in the Texas game. Okay,
Speaker 1: The next next group that's on the board, next team
Speaker 1: it's on the board is at seventy five is the
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints. Okay, Now we've talked about quarterback here
Speaker 1: before this is we were talking about quarterback to the
Speaker 1: Saints at thirty one. Yeah, and then but also then
Speaker 1: some in the second round as well. I was out
Speaker 1: of the room. I didn't miss a Petty or Huntley
Speaker 1: pick up. No, you did not. You did not miss
Speaker 1: as I didn't miss. No, they're all there. They're all there. Now.
Speaker 1: See that, That to me is where you start. You know,
Speaker 1: if this team is in fact thinking about replacing in
Speaker 1: a future day, not now, but replacing, uh, I think
Speaker 1: is dumb. But go ahead, Well you're okay, you're from
Speaker 1: the city. I mean, I know you cover this football team,
Speaker 1: but to talk about it from the perspective, I think
Speaker 1: it's this legendary. But say they're like the Cowboys. They're
Speaker 1: gonna have to make this journey someday. But there are
Speaker 1: a lot like the Cowboys in the sense that if
Speaker 1: they're gonna win, it needs to be in the next
Speaker 1: you know, two or three years. And why just why
Speaker 1: we used to pick on a guy that's not gonna play. Well,
Speaker 1: you're talking about future picks. I mean, this is a
Speaker 1: team that had two first round picks. You gotta feel
Speaker 1: like you got two third round picks too. Yeah, did
Speaker 1: the Graham Did the Graham trade not signify in any
Speaker 1: way to you that maybe they're already thinking about how
Speaker 1: they're gonna rebuild it, not really honestly. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, they got a good offensive linement
Speaker 1: out of it, and you got a guy to protect
Speaker 1: the pocket Breezes five ten and five eleven. He needs
Speaker 1: a good pocket. You got jar. We question Pete, though
Speaker 1: we questioned pet I mean, and it's Day liked him more,
Speaker 1: but we I I have my questions about Pete. You've
Speaker 1: got Breese better protected now than you did at the
Speaker 1: start of free agency. I mean, you got Max Hunger,
Speaker 1: you got Pete. If you think he's any good, h
Speaker 1: I don't think Drew Breese needs great skill players, you know.
Speaker 1: I mean he won the Super Bowl with like not
Speaker 1: pro bowlers. H So no, and I think, I mean
Speaker 1: he's probably got three years max, maybe four, I don't know. Uh.
Speaker 1: And I just I don't see Bryce Petty as a
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna do much for me. And by the
Speaker 1: time he is able to do anything for me, it's
Speaker 1: contract will be up anyway. That's I mean. I feel
Speaker 1: the same way about the Cowboys. I would be bummed
Speaker 1: out by a Cowboys pick of a quarterback for the
Speaker 1: very same reasons. So at ninety one, I mean, we
Speaker 1: still got Jeff is fighting for Duke Johnson here right now?
Speaker 1: Well I looked I'm not fighting for Duke at ninety one,
Speaker 1: I'm fighting for Why are other teams still picking this is?
Speaker 1: Let's get up there. We could. We could maybe get
Speaker 1: to eighty one with the four. You give up that's Buffalo.
Speaker 1: You give up your three in your four to get
Speaker 1: to Buffalo. I had a huge and who we talked
Speaker 1: about as maybe being interested in a running back. I
Speaker 1: would do that. Would you guys do that? You're three
Speaker 1: in the four, yet seven picks away, you're three in
Speaker 1: your four are worth about uh your well, your four
Speaker 1: is worth forty five and so that's about a forty
Speaker 1: nine point difference. It's it's it's in that range where
Speaker 1: Buffalo might agree. So we would. We would not get
Speaker 1: we would not have the pick to start today Tomorrow,
Speaker 1: you'd sit through the entire round unless you want to
Speaker 1: give something up. Next year, you would have a fifth
Speaker 1: and two sevenths to close out your draft. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: you would get the duke. You would get a corner
Speaker 1: you didn't think didn't. You would get a pass rusher
Speaker 1: you didn't think you were getting, and you would get
Speaker 1: a running back at his silly value. Let's go get
Speaker 1: get just just done sitting. We throw the fourth round
Speaker 1: pick out of here if I can have Randy Gregory,
Speaker 1: Duke Johns. We just I'm sorry, we just missed the
Speaker 1: pick there. And who's the third one off? Okay? Grayson
Speaker 1: is all right, Oh okay, you worry about that. You can't.
Speaker 1: You're doing a great job in there, and I'm I'm
Speaker 1: sit there talking about players. Are so okay, Garrett Grayson.
Speaker 1: We we talked about a quarterback. It's not the order
Speaker 1: we had them. Yeah, they took instead of taking instead
Speaker 1: of taking Bryce Petty or or Huntley for that matter,
Speaker 1: they take Grayson. Uh, the quarterback out of out of
Speaker 1: excuse me, out of Colorado state. So that would put uh,
Speaker 1: let's see here on the clock, should be the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 1: Unless I'm missing something on it, it's the chief Okay,
Speaker 1: it's the Chiefs. I'm sorry. You're right, Kat, that's a
Speaker 1: pick that they they obtained. So the Chiefs at seventy
Speaker 1: six are now on the clock. Let's talk a little
Speaker 1: bit about Grayson and what we saw potentially down in
Speaker 1: New Orleans. I'll tell you what we saw. I think
Speaker 1: we saw the arm talent was there. I think we
Speaker 1: saw an accurate, strong armed guy who goes down the
Speaker 1: field a decent amount. I don't think you saw really
Speaker 1: bad decision making. I thought that I thought that there
Speaker 1: was some really good with this guy. My biggest issue
Speaker 1: is I felt like he got locked onto would target
Speaker 1: too often right like he would take the snap wherever
Speaker 1: he was going is where he was going, and sometimes
Speaker 1: that would lead to a poor decision. I remember a
Speaker 1: play where he has a guy squatting on a stop route.
Speaker 1: They're probably in cover two, and he's still throwing it
Speaker 1: like that's just where he was gonna go with it.
Speaker 1: But when he's not doing that stuff, I thought we
Speaker 1: saw a guy that he had the arm talent. He
Speaker 1: goes down field. He you know, he looks like a
Speaker 1: guy that you could turn into something or take a shot.
Speaker 1: I like till he stood in the pocket to deliver
Speaker 1: the football. I think there was a lot. I think
Speaker 1: there's some mobility in this kid too, and he's taller.
Speaker 1: He's a tall quarterback, so you don't have to worry
Speaker 1: about the middle of the pocket so much. With this guy.
Speaker 1: You think this is maybe a wide receiver. I have
Speaker 1: the Chiefs addressed that at all. Well, the Chiefs have
Speaker 1: not addressed a wide receiver spot and they got Jeremy
Speaker 1: Macklin and a whole bunch of zip Yeah, a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of NATA. Yeah. I think that he feels like
Speaker 1: if you look at the receivers and we talked about Hardy,
Speaker 1: we haven't really talked about right. But here's the picks
Speaker 1: in Kent I things have traded the seventy six pick
Speaker 1: to the Kansas City Chiefs. Okay, with the seventy six
Speaker 1: pick in a two thy fifteen NFL draft the Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. So Chris Connley, there you go. Receiver Georgia,
Speaker 1: receiver from Georgia. Workout warrior. See for all the guys
Speaker 1: who said that about Byron Jones, I disagreed Chris Conley.
Speaker 1: If you call him a workout warrior, I don't think
Speaker 1: I would fight you on that. You know, I think
Speaker 1: he had six hundred and some odd yards last year,
Speaker 1: But when you turn on the tape, I don't think
Speaker 1: the tape matched up to what he measured out. As
Speaker 1: it's a guy that his run, his shuttles, his jumps,
Speaker 1: the explosiveness, I didn't see it. The same on a
Speaker 1: football field as you saw it to coming by. Yes,
Speaker 1: his cuts weren't real smooth um, you know, but he
Speaker 1: wasn't used a lot, you know. I think there's some
Speaker 1: untapped potential. He's a guy that you can just try
Speaker 1: to get the ball in his hands as much as possible.
Speaker 1: And God knows, Alex Smith that needs some targets to
Speaker 1: work with. They're trying to throw a touchdown to put
Speaker 1: him across from or in the slaughter or whatever. With
Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklin on the field at the same time, you
Speaker 1: get two burners that you gotta pay attention to when
Speaker 1: you're game planning for that offense. But that's definitely like
Speaker 1: a project. Maybe a guy who's a gunner, you know,
Speaker 1: right now special team, right before he's sliding in and
Speaker 1: getting the ball. A don't. Yeah, I thought Kansas City
Speaker 1: needed a real receiver, you know, and we've you know,
Speaker 1: if you look, look, you talk about a guy like
Speaker 1: you know Green, you know, Florida State. I think that
Speaker 1: Green has got yeah, a more talent than then this kid.
Speaker 1: Normally I would avoid doing this, but it is our
Speaker 1: esteemed colleague Dane brugler Uh telling us that Duke Johnson
Speaker 1: will be a Cleveland brown here. Well that see, that's
Speaker 1: that's where you know, and it is it is Duke.
Speaker 1: He has been central to our broadcast. So I felt
Speaker 1: a great night. Yeah, since worth it. Sit down, We're
Speaker 1: through this, a great night. We're gonna get through this. Well,
Speaker 1: Dan doesn't stop us from trading up. Well, they picked him,
Speaker 1: we can still trade for him. Well, here's here's the
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints. Excuse me, the Cleveland Browns. I'm looking
Speaker 1: to pick ahead. The Cleveland Browns are on the clock.
Speaker 1: Dane has been very accurate. Dane is Dane has plugged in.
Speaker 1: He's plugged into Cleveland. And if Dane Brugler is saying
Speaker 1: that Duke Johnson is going to be the pick with
Speaker 1: the h from the University of Miami, and we talked
Speaker 1: about that the Cleveland Browns needed a running backs. I
Speaker 1: mean they have Terence West and Isaiah Krowll, not exactly
Speaker 1: two dudes that you're sold on being, you know, franchise backs.
Speaker 1: Makes sense, pretty pretty devastating. Well, I can say Dane
Speaker 1: has yet to be wrong about any of the about
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns picks. Uh. That would be something that
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, Uh, that would hurt them in relation to
Speaker 1: uh to potentially into their board and how they might
Speaker 1: have uh those guys. You know we've talked about Gordon
Speaker 1: and Johnson and Coleman. Uh you know what direction now
Speaker 1: you know we've we've the running backs also, you know,
Speaker 1: is if in fact Duke Johnson is a pick, is
Speaker 1: a Jay the best running back left out of that
Speaker 1: out of that group and for me, and that's we
Speaker 1: have to you know, or they've did bring in the
Speaker 1: USC kid and this is this is the fun of
Speaker 1: the draft is you know we talk about you couldn't
Speaker 1: say no to Gregory because the value was too good.
Speaker 1: I mean, I hate to use the word, but maybe
Speaker 1: you reach on a GI even if you don't feel
Speaker 1: great about it because you're I mean, if that's what
Speaker 1: if that's the direction you want to go, Hey, maybe
Speaker 1: it's not, but that's what I was gonna to consider.
Speaker 1: That's what I was going to ask. What is the feeling?
Speaker 1: Uh what do the Cowboys feel or how do they
Speaker 1: feel about a GI's knee because if if that's the
Speaker 1: big factor, well they know they know it's non fixable.
Speaker 1: You know, it's bone on bone. But the scenarios we've
Speaker 1: talked about has been, has been that they also know that, hey,
Speaker 1: they they could use a guy for four years and
Speaker 1: then you move on. So I mean it's it's very
Speaker 1: similar to Ron Leary in the sense that you don't
Speaker 1: know when it can't happen. Yeah, it hasn't happened Ron
Speaker 1: Learry yet. Big difference there being that they didn't draft
Speaker 1: Ron Leary. They got it as a priority free agent, right,
Speaker 1: so when you're talking about spending a top one hundred
Speaker 1: pick on it, I understand their trepidation. I also happen
Speaker 1: to think they could really use another running back to
Speaker 1: add although if you're taking Jones at his word, he
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to think it's as important. He said he
Speaker 1: can sleep if they don't address the position in this draft,
Speaker 1: although he also said that about defensive end and they
Speaker 1: went and got Randy Gregor. I think that you can
Speaker 1: survive with what they have. I think you can feel
Speaker 1: a team and play on Sunday with what they have.
Speaker 1: And when I don't, yeah, I don't, You're not gonna
Speaker 1: I don't trust Yeah, what they have necessarily, UM don't.
Speaker 1: I think I don't know either. Yeah, I think as
Speaker 1: Jay at this point if if I think, if your
Speaker 1: guy becomes your feature back immediately. But now we're in
Speaker 1: a spot where value wise, how does that work? Because
Speaker 1: you're gonna have Carl Davis sitting on the board too,
Speaker 1: who we have a second round player? Is t J
Speaker 1: Cleming still on the board. That's something's got to be wrong.
Speaker 1: Something's wrong with something. We miss something medically something because
Speaker 1: that's the first round ish at least, yeah, offensive tackle,
Speaker 1: and we're working our way down here to where we
Speaker 1: may have to take a guy who's a third or
Speaker 1: fourth round running back to fill a need. So now
Speaker 1: we're just we're getting in an interesting spot. This is
Speaker 1: where the draft gets fun. And the word I mean again,
Speaker 1: when you say the word reached, that's a bad word.
Speaker 1: I mean if you think this point in time, it's
Speaker 1: not really a reach. I mean he's not ach No,
Speaker 1: you know well as a player, No he's not. But
Speaker 1: it is ninety one. And we talked about this with
Speaker 1: Leall Collins this morning. Actually, do you get to a
Speaker 1: point where you're like, if his knee goes it was
Speaker 1: only the ninety first pick? Is that? Are you that
Speaker 1: debate him or debate him or are Carl Davis I
Speaker 1: don't know where to start. I mean, Carl David. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you what. I think that either player that I
Speaker 1: pick is immediately upgrading the guy that's in front of him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think J J. I E. The de sets footing camp.
Speaker 1: We talk about this. Cal Davis is your best defensive
Speaker 1: tackle the day he sets footing camp other than Tyrone Crawford. Perhaps,
Speaker 1: are you more comfortable playing with who's on and at
Speaker 1: the one technique and three technique than you are running
Speaker 1: the football? Oh? Man, that's tough, because we know running
Speaker 1: the football is how we're gonna win football games. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we know what they have. But that's the case. Maybe
Speaker 1: you should have got Duke. Yeah, well maybe we should
Speaker 1: have up. Yeah, we've seen but I like I like McFadden.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm a foot or two on that.
Speaker 1: I don't know him. He hit him with the Can
Speaker 1: he play sixteen games? Oh? He plays sixteen games? Where
Speaker 1: is this confidence coming from? He's done it once? You
Speaker 1: know what then? Was a former personnel man, you gotta
Speaker 1: have confidence. Okay, that's called blind faith. Right? What would
Speaker 1: you do? Because I think for a good band, wouldn't
Speaker 1: blind faith? I've never heard of them for us, there's
Speaker 1: no doubt that Carl Davis is going to be higher
Speaker 1: on our board anyway, and that Jji is going to
Speaker 1: be lower. But we're a running football team and we
Speaker 1: don't trust the running back corp that we have, and
Speaker 1: we let DeMarco Murray get away. So now, so now, Brian,
Speaker 1: what do you do? What would you do? And first
Speaker 1: of all, maybe neither one of these guys makes it.
Speaker 1: Carl Davis can be gone. Ji can be gone. We
Speaker 1: can be sitting in ninety one talking about, Okay, who's
Speaker 1: the guy that has the best shot of being there?
Speaker 1: The best shot. I think a Ji will be there
Speaker 1: because yeah, I'm popping him in ninety one. If I
Speaker 1: get there and he's there, I'm popping him at night.
Speaker 1: Because you're other guys, well, i'll tell you what. If
Speaker 1: this is by draft, I don't know if they'll do it.
Speaker 1: I'll take Mike Davis from South Carolina too. I got
Speaker 1: no problem with that morning back. But after that, I
Speaker 1: think you're dropping out. You don't know. You don't know
Speaker 1: how much I liked him. If you took him at sixty,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be mad at you. Dane thinks he might
Speaker 1: eat his way out of the league. I think he's
Speaker 1: a month. Here we go. We got the good supporting
Speaker 1: active duty and veteran services, Cleveland Browns our salute to
Speaker 1: service campaign thought Rogers called them and their love of
Speaker 1: our country. It's back from the country. Please welcome here
Speaker 1: and in selection square service members from all five military branches,
Speaker 1: and four Tilman scholars from the Pat Tillman Foundation New
Speaker 1: s a U S. A commissioner walking down the line.
Speaker 1: Just describe him here, the commissioner walking down the line
Speaker 1: and shaking hands with each of the military members on
Speaker 1: the stage. So he's now at the podium and we're
Speaker 1: gonna get the Cleveland Browns pick. Announcing the next selection
Speaker 1: is Army Sergeant first Class David fing H. I think
Speaker 1: I'm half of the service members. Thank you, Commissioner for
Speaker 1: the NFL's support both here and abroad. And now with
Speaker 1: the seventy seventh pick of the twenty fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns select Duke Johnson Miami Ka. Dame Brewler
Speaker 1: has might as well be in the scouting department for
Speaker 1: the call him now trade him Byron Jones. Oh no, no,
Speaker 1: what do you want? You want? Byron No? I had
Speaker 1: a couple names to the conversation. Yeah, Carl Davis isn't there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, whatever happens with the gi well we
Speaker 1: got we're getting we're getting requests to we I mean,
Speaker 1: Mike Davis is getting mentioned. Were we looking at realistically
Speaker 1: for running backs that are left on the board? David Johnson?
Speaker 1: Maybe David Johnson's there, Mike Davis is there, Buck Allen's there. Ye.
Speaker 1: After that, the next guy that we would actually have
Speaker 1: is a guy named Thomas Rawls at Central Michigan. But
Speaker 1: fu yeah he's down. Yeah, and it's not in the
Speaker 1: conversation at this page, say we don't go running back? Okay,
Speaker 1: let's just grant like you don't. Don't get tunnel vision here?
Speaker 1: I mean no, no, we did. We did for Duke Johnson.
Speaker 1: Do it. He's a brown move the click. Let's wait,
Speaker 1: so let's wait until the drafts over. Dat, Let's do
Speaker 1: have a couple of other names. I know it might
Speaker 1: not be a great fit. Eli Harold's a guy who
Speaker 1: slipped down to the third round. Now who knows Mike
Speaker 1: Well Bennett's a guy who could play inside. So just
Speaker 1: a couple of names, you're just throwing him out there
Speaker 1: in case Carl Davis gets what about? What about? Okay,
Speaker 1: here's an interesting scenario which, granted we don't know, but
Speaker 1: we talk about a need for a swing tackle. Do
Speaker 1: you take that risk on whatever's wrong with TJ Clemings
Speaker 1: at ninety one? I want to know why he's there.
Speaker 1: I'm terrified. I gotta know why he's there. Something's terrifyingly wrong. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I'm missing something with TJ. Clemings. As long as
Speaker 1: your T is not there, there's no way he's still.
Speaker 1: As long as you're taking risks on dudes who are
Speaker 1: dirt cheap because of some I mean, they just took
Speaker 1: Randy Gregory, might as well do it again. I'm playing
Speaker 1: devil's advocate here. No, and you know what, when I
Speaker 1: figure out what's going on and what's pushing him down here,
Speaker 1: if it's something that's not a long term deal, sure,
Speaker 1: if I can get t J. Clemings and I think
Speaker 1: Free's replacement, there's something going on. Let me tell you this.
Speaker 1: If I'm taking a chance on some of them, taking
Speaker 1: a chance on the runner, I'm taking a chance of Ji. Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean I'm with you, Yeah, I mean we're also
Speaker 1: getting towards your quarterback zone here. Yeah, if they draft
Speaker 1: a gi he could be here for the press conference
Speaker 1: in forty minutes, right sec. That's what I'm saying, though,
Speaker 1: if you, if I have to take a guy that's hurt,
Speaker 1: I'll go in and take the runner who we thought
Speaker 1: was a top forty player before we knew about this problem.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I have a hard time arguing with you.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a guy. I mean again, I've been
Speaker 1: critical of him as far but carrying the football. I
Speaker 1: mean the past protection we've seen not great, but physically
Speaker 1: you teach him to do that. No, that's enough, but
Speaker 1: you remember you remember damn good and well there was
Speaker 1: times with a desire to do it not good. Absolutely, yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 1: Our Twitter fam is telling me that Clemings has a
Speaker 1: stress fracture in his foot. I'm going off of that,
Speaker 1: so yeah, thank you, thank you. That is true. That's true.
Speaker 1: But I didn't think I could open fix it and
Speaker 1: send it back. I didn't think it was as as
Speaker 1: he would be. I mean, if you drafted, if you
Speaker 1: draft a guy with it who is three months off
Speaker 1: at torn ACL at twenty one, it's weird to me
Speaker 1: to think that a stress fat fracture, especially for an
Speaker 1: offensive tackle. I mean, Doug Fredy learned that firsthand, right right. Well,
Speaker 1: it's it's getting to point, creeping towards where you might
Speaker 1: have to start talking about your Baylor guy. Well, I'm
Speaker 1: creeping there. I'm asking, I'm I will ask when we
Speaker 1: get to that point, Jerry Jones was the thought was
Speaker 1: that there could be a quarterback there and take him
Speaker 1: at the right spot. Is ninety one with I mean,
Speaker 1: we're throwing a lot of names out there, Nikki. We
Speaker 1: don't we don't. We don't have we don't have a
Speaker 1: quality uh really a player. The best player we have
Speaker 1: on our board. My opinion right now would be as
Speaker 1: far as to pick would be Carl Davis. I agree,
Speaker 1: that would be I agree that would be okay at
Speaker 1: the end of the world. And if you want to
Speaker 1: throw resources at defense like you're talking about it, I
Speaker 1: have no problem picking that big son of a gun.
Speaker 1: And how you're gonna say the other word, Oh, I'll
Speaker 1: say it. He gets picked because he he will. He
Speaker 1: is a he is a he's active, he's inside. He
Speaker 1: could give you a push again. He could play three,
Speaker 1: he could play one. I would I would go I
Speaker 1: would stand both feet up on the table to get
Speaker 1: a guy like, don't you take him over the runner?
Speaker 1: That's that's where spot take the runner. I'm glad I'm
Speaker 1: not runner. The runner is healthy, the runners healthy. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have him for four years. Maybe he could last,
Speaker 1: Maybe he could last. Maybe I drafted Jeremiah Trotter Jeremiah TV.
Speaker 1: The doctor told me, I don't know, Brian if he
Speaker 1: could play ten games or ten years. The guy played
Speaker 1: like twelve years. Man, that's a bad decision. You got lucky. Yeah,
Speaker 1: guy's a Pro Bowl player. I don't think at the end.
Speaker 1: All right, we get the podium pick right here now,
Speaker 1: this would be the New Orleans Saints fifteen NFL Draft.
Speaker 1: The New Orleans Saints select p J. Williams, defensive back Florida.
Speaker 1: We're seeing now, Rob Bryan. He got him a press
Speaker 1: corner there. P J. Williams, he will grab you all
Speaker 1: day long. But it's a good You're right. It's have thought.
Speaker 1: I mean they took Andrews Pete. I would have thought
Speaker 1: to have seen more focus on the offense from that team,
Speaker 1: especially losing Jimmy Graham, losing Kenny Stills. Well, they took Pete.
Speaker 1: They took Pete and then they've taken three straight defenders. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: rob Ryan is he's a happy man. He must he
Speaker 1: must have liked they got Sean Payte locked up somewhere.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I p J. Williams to me, guys, you
Speaker 1: watched him as well, Katie, you just see me thoughts
Speaker 1: about p J. Williams and what you saw. Yeah. No.
Speaker 1: One thing that we always uh that I have in
Speaker 1: my notes that stood out is this guy's gonna get
Speaker 1: flagged a lot in the NFL if he doesn't stop grabbing.
Speaker 1: He's a holder heavy guy. Here, got another chair. Forty
Speaker 1: nine ers are in the San Francisco forty nine or
Speaker 1: select Eli Harrold. Oh wow, I like that pick for
Speaker 1: them a lot. Yeah, there you go, Eli Harold, Like, okay,
Speaker 1: finish up with a PJ. And then and then Jeff,
Speaker 1: if you give me some Eli Harold, if you could, Yeah,
Speaker 1: p J. Williams. He's got to learn, you know, to
Speaker 1: stop making contact down the field. You know. The freshman though,
Speaker 1: he's gotta get eaten up with those illegal contact pill
Speaker 1: he's at the NFL level. But um, you know, I
Speaker 1: think he does a good j using the sideline that televerage.
Speaker 1: I think he understands a good feel of how to
Speaker 1: play use his body and you know, how to control
Speaker 1: kind of receivers a little bit, right, And I just
Speaker 1: the problem is Keny Canny get in there and stay
Speaker 1: in front of the wide receiver. Yeah, you know, I
Speaker 1: think he's very handsy. Yeah, yeah, it shows you see
Speaker 1: some separation. And I mean even for a press man corner.
Speaker 1: You see he's got the recovery speeding right back and
Speaker 1: fix that, okay, Eli Harold goes to San Francisco forty
Speaker 1: nine ers. Yeah, so we watched him play at six
Speaker 1: zero three to six on the height, two hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty five pounds on the weight, but apparently he's added
Speaker 1: somewhere between ten and fifteen pounds. I think you said
Speaker 1: that he was out here and you saw him, and
Speaker 1: I think he was a pretty big guy, right. We
Speaker 1: watched him play like that's his weight. You know, some
Speaker 1: of these guys is just what you're talking about. Maybe
Speaker 1: his hands on the ground, maybe he's standing up outside
Speaker 1: as a linebacker and is going to pursue down the line. Well,
Speaker 1: shows you a little bit of an ability to get
Speaker 1: around guys, to work down the line. But when you
Speaker 1: when you're talking about a run game that's coming at him,
Speaker 1: you're talking about a weight that's hard to hide. You're
Speaker 1: just talking about he's gonna have a problem dealing with
Speaker 1: the run coming right at him. I noted that sometimes
Speaker 1: it doesn't look like he has a plan on his
Speaker 1: pass rush, but then on other parts you do see
Speaker 1: flashes of him turning that length and his speed into
Speaker 1: some power. So I saw a real mixed bag from
Speaker 1: Eli Harold, is what I saw. Yeah, and a lot
Speaker 1: of people thought that Eli Harold in the third round
Speaker 1: though more like a maybe a late one, Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: a second round guy. And you're right. I think you're
Speaker 1: absolutely right about the player. You know, the power to speed.
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of things that you know.
Speaker 1: There's a he's a flash player. I don't think he played.
Speaker 1: He didn't really play that low and aggressive fire off
Speaker 1: the ball consistently. He really really didn't. And I think
Speaker 1: that you talk about a guy again, it's about capturing
Speaker 1: that edge, it's about getting around that corner, about sharpening.
Speaker 1: And I don't think with Eli Harold you always saw it.
Speaker 1: But San Francisco, you know they've they've over the years
Speaker 1: had played some pretty good some good units. Okay, uh,
Speaker 1: we're back up at the podium here. This is gonna
Speaker 1: be the Buffer Bills us first pick into two thy
Speaker 1: fifteen NFL Draft, The Buffalo Bill select John Miller, Guardsville Guard.
Speaker 1: We know, there you go, Kat's got John John Miller.
Speaker 1: A little bout before we do that, I want to
Speaker 1: talk about Detroit's pick at eighty right there, Alex Carter,
Speaker 1: the cornerback from Stanford, another one of a big your guys, Yeah,
Speaker 1: is that you know, kind of a we were talking
Speaker 1: about names for the Cowboys at ninety one, and we're
Speaker 1: talking about running back and Carl Davis and some of
Speaker 1: these other guys. You know, I'm not going to rule
Speaker 1: out corner at this point if we're staying open minded
Speaker 1: and there's one on corners going, I've got a couple
Speaker 1: good grades again, Carl Davis best guy on the board. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you got about ten picks left till till you're up. Maybe,
Speaker 1: Carl Davis goes, maybe Corner isn't. Can we run this
Speaker 1: down one more time? I know we did it already,
Speaker 1: but just for everybody listening, I mean, how many picks
Speaker 1: we got it? We got about ten. Yeah, we're running.
Speaker 1: Throw throw me some names that sound I mean, Carl
Speaker 1: Davis has got it. I mean, he's probably top of
Speaker 1: the list. Okay, Dallas is sitting at and on the
Speaker 1: clock currently is the uh is the New York Jets
Speaker 1: at eighty two. So you're, yeah, what is that? That's uh,
Speaker 1: that's seven names to you, right, eight names to you?
Speaker 1: So one, two, three, four, five, six, seven eight nine? Yeah,
Speaker 1: excuse me. So so you're you're looking right there. I mean,
Speaker 1: we we've we said this all along it. You know,
Speaker 1: Carl Davis is best guy on on the on this board,
Speaker 1: Andy all right, put it this way, He's the best
Speaker 1: guy on our board. Yeah, and I and you know,
Speaker 1: and the fact that he can also play as at
Speaker 1: one is at at three, that that's I don't think
Speaker 1: that keeps you from over from taking him where you
Speaker 1: need to take him. But but with nine nine picks,
Speaker 1: I had it. I mean, I mean, there's a decent
Speaker 1: bet he could be gone here in the next four
Speaker 1: or five if he's I mean, there's somebody else has
Speaker 1: got to feel that way. So what are some other names? Well, okay,
Speaker 1: could the could the could the next pick? Could you
Speaker 1: think about the pick. I'll throw it out there, Bryce Petty,
Speaker 1: I'll throw out the quarterbacks. I know, Petty or Hunley,
Speaker 1: I'll either one. I'm gonna go on the record and
Speaker 1: say that I would love the pick because when I
Speaker 1: said I didn't like the Gregory pick, they picked him.
Speaker 1: So I love the Bryce Petty pick. I think that's
Speaker 1: what they should do. I think they should go. So
Speaker 1: you're using the opposite, amusing reverse psychology on the Cowboys
Speaker 1: front office right here? Can I tell this out there too, though?
Speaker 1: Because we were talking about maybe a potential runner, there
Speaker 1: still are two teams in front of you, Cardinals and Ravens,
Speaker 1: who might have a need or a desire to get
Speaker 1: a running back. So I want to throw that out
Speaker 1: there just in case. I don't know how urgent it's
Speaker 1: going to be to get you know, Jayagi or David
Speaker 1: and That's or whoever you like. But there's two teams
Speaker 1: who might take a running back that we're thinking about.
Speaker 1: It's a giant at ninety one, like us being too
Speaker 1: focused on running back and maybe panicking or is it
Speaker 1: you think that's something they would do. It's talent, but
Speaker 1: again it's injury and we and I've always said I
Speaker 1: think it's something that you think it's something you say
Speaker 1: fourth round, I say fourth round. To me, ninety one
Speaker 1: is basically the fourth round. That's a great point. It
Speaker 1: is a great point. In my experience though working in
Speaker 1: front offices is always been guys have medical issues or
Speaker 1: those those questionable issues all of a sudden end up
Speaker 1: in the fourth round. And but you know, we'll see. Okay,
Speaker 1: the commissioner is walking to the podium. He has got
Speaker 1: a guest with him, so let's go there. This would
Speaker 1: be the New York We're excited. So many fans here
Speaker 1: in Chicagogo have had the opportunity experience this year's draft
Speaker 1: here tonight from more than one hundred NFL Draft diehards
Speaker 1: who have attended every round of every draft for more
Speaker 1: than ten years. Wow, it's away from the Mike Roger
Speaker 1: coach coached. Mony're in stretch mode right now. Thanks run
Speaker 1: a little fast in the second round. They're trying to
Speaker 1: stretch it out. Let'spet that extra half hour of ratings
Speaker 1: representing all of you diehards. Here's New York Jet season
Speaker 1: ticket holder Albert Mahrds announced the Jet selection. Albert, there's
Speaker 1: a guy there who yells, who that every time? These
Speaker 1: dudes coming. With the eighty second pick off the twenty
Speaker 1: fifteen NFL Draft, the New York Jets select Lorenzo Mountain,
Speaker 1: linebacker on Louisville. Here you go, well, not a factor
Speaker 1: on fun with that. Louisville Cardinals putting some dudes. Now,
Speaker 1: the first one was a guy no one's heard of. Well,
Speaker 1: how about this, Well the first one wasn't. Well how
Speaker 1: about this? Though? They went back to back. You got
Speaker 1: John Miller goes to Buffalo at eighty one, and then
Speaker 1: you turn around and you got Lorenzo Maulden, who you
Speaker 1: guys tried to not like very much. I was try
Speaker 1: to like him all I tried to not like anything.
Speaker 1: They tried not to like him. I think I try
Speaker 1: to like him because Lorenzo Maulden. Let me tell you this, though,
Speaker 1: when you watch him play, that guy's got some edge
Speaker 1: rush of billy. He's sure. And I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: when he remember some of the stuff though from the
Speaker 1: back side, when he was running down plays the Miami game,
Speaker 1: slashing through there. Yeah, I'm a little bit higher on
Speaker 1: this guy than I thought you two were. I've got
Speaker 1: effort on two many plays questionable is my biggest deal.
Speaker 1: But what were some of the positive things, though, that
Speaker 1: you had about him that can get low Lean into
Speaker 1: the bend? Yeah, the bend, the rush. I think you
Speaker 1: can work with the guys. A good hands to swat
Speaker 1: offensive tackles, get his feet going though, to get moving.
Speaker 1: That's why he couldn't play the four three. I got
Speaker 1: one for you guys from a reader. I mean, I've
Speaker 1: been so caught up in the in the excitement, in
Speaker 1: the moment, the name that we're familiar with him and
Speaker 1: put on my Homer Glass trade for duke. Yeah, the
Speaker 1: Neil Hunter. We feel about that is that we like him.
Speaker 1: You've got your already got a guy rusher, you do,
Speaker 1: We've got our long and lanky edge rusher. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean another one couldn't hurt though defensive that doesn't Really
Speaker 1: you're getting towards the right range, I think. Actually, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't even I don't like the Neil
Speaker 1: Hunter that much, but I think you're getting towards the
Speaker 1: right range though. Yeah, you start looking at him as
Speaker 1: with his athleticism. I'm just saying I'm trying to think
Speaker 1: of names that sound like they're plausible. Tre Flowers is
Speaker 1: another one, got Ohio State Michael Bennett. Michael Bennett in
Speaker 1: the mix. If Carl Davis is there, though, why wouldn't
Speaker 1: you rather just have Carl Davis. Well, no matter what
Speaker 1: name I throw out, I'm gonna say I'd rather have
Speaker 1: Carl Davis. So I'm trying to throw around. You're saying
Speaker 1: that you think it should be Carl Davis. If it
Speaker 1: gets to that point, I just throws it off. I
Speaker 1: throws it off for me. It makes it a tough decision.
Speaker 1: I have a hard time. I don't like to drop
Speaker 1: off from him to the next guy. I like David Johnson.
Speaker 1: I think Mike Davis at sixty that's a great point.
Speaker 1: I would take Mike Davis. The whole world disagrees with
Speaker 1: me with Mike Davis, so I'm trying to I'm trying
Speaker 1: to let him go and not champion him all the time,
Speaker 1: and then just whoever takes him, eventually I'll re champion.
Speaker 1: But the whole world seems to disagree with me on
Speaker 1: Mike Davis, so I'm trying to be quiet about him.
Speaker 1: That's fair. I'm gonna sit here quietly. So if he
Speaker 1: turns into something you're gonna be obnoxious as hell. Absolutely, Yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: he's my Timmy journ again from last year, Timmy Jura
Speaker 1: was a second round. I was gonna take him at sixteen.
Speaker 1: Well that, yeah, that's fair. While we're throwing out names
Speaker 1: like I'm just throwing out names. If in case Carl
Speaker 1: Davis goes a Grady Jarrett, you knows your Cooper, there's
Speaker 1: you guys in the next If not that, I think
Speaker 1: it's actually approaches Flowers as Flowers has not been picked
Speaker 1: on the boarders, I'd watch that. I would watch that pick.
Speaker 1: I'd watch that pick at New England at the end
Speaker 1: of the end of the day at ninety six. To
Speaker 1: be honest with you, right there, that would be one
Speaker 1: and I would be So if we're and I I
Speaker 1: have I have no idea if jag I at ninety
Speaker 1: one is a plausible option. But there's really only one
Speaker 1: team between right now and the Cowboys, maybe two if
Speaker 1: you conclude Baltimore that would maybe want a running back.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it seems like a decent bet that he'll
Speaker 1: be there, especially with his injury concerns. I just think
Speaker 1: we're in such a we're in such a strange spot
Speaker 1: now because I agree, I think you need I think
Speaker 1: you need a runner. But I think if you're going,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna skip, like in the case of our board,
Speaker 1: you're skipping a full round. I'm not skipping that, tack
Speaker 1: taking them, I'm not I'm not skipping that. I love
Speaker 1: the player. So if it happens, it happens, and then
Speaker 1: you're just gonna have to see what you end up
Speaker 1: with a running back, you know, and if maybe David
Speaker 1: Johnson makes it to four, then this could be one
Speaker 1: of those things. Well, I mean, you never thought Randy
Speaker 1: Gregor gonna pick in here this, never thought Randy Gregory
Speaker 1: was getting sixties. N Here we go the Chargers, the
Speaker 1: San Diego Charger select Craig Meger defensive back. Texas State,
Speaker 1: Texas say, there we go. Texas State is a good
Speaker 1: place to hang out with your friends from Lulling, Texas
Speaker 1: Old Craig Meger and Craig is not a bad football player.
Speaker 1: No wait, talk about Craig a little. Let me try
Speaker 1: to get down to my notes on him real quick,
Speaker 1: because ten is gonna pop to my forefront. Be dishonest
Speaker 1: with you. Do you remember liking him though? Start to
Speaker 1: dry up all yeah, and this this makes me want
Speaker 1: to throw out a few names. What's what's throw out?
Speaker 1: Stevie Nelson and Josh Yeah, you wonder about you wonder
Speaker 1: about Here's the guys that we really liked. We talked
Speaker 1: about Shaw, we talked about Nelson, h And you know,
Speaker 1: Craig Meger is a guy that I basically had in
Speaker 1: the fifth round on my board. But Jeff, go ahead
Speaker 1: and give us a little thumbnail on him. Okay, here's
Speaker 1: what I for him now. Granted this is against South
Speaker 1: Alabama and the like, but they'll use him on the
Speaker 1: corner blitz. He's got the awareness to get his hands
Speaker 1: up to bat balls down in that situation, aggressive and
Speaker 1: willing tackler against the read option, nice adjustments on deep
Speaker 1: balls to get a body on bigger wide receivers and
Speaker 1: box him out. Makes an interception in that scenario against
Speaker 1: South Alabama. And then I made the note that off
Speaker 1: coverage needs to stop in college football because off coverage,
Speaker 1: like a lot of these guys that we watch, when
Speaker 1: you take him out of the press man and they're
Speaker 1: playing off man, I feel like all of them play
Speaker 1: so conservatively and give up the underneath routes. But that
Speaker 1: was the biggest thing I had on him, is that
Speaker 1: an off coverage he gives up that short. I thought
Speaker 1: he looked like an aware zone player. I don't know
Speaker 1: that he's a four or four guy on the field right,
Speaker 1: although he timed at that. But yeah, I mean, I
Speaker 1: feel like I'm listening a lot of good out of
Speaker 1: the notes there for a small school guy. That's it.
Speaker 1: I think he got the player pretty much nailed there. Again,
Speaker 1: I didn't see a guy that played great off man. Okay,
Speaker 1: Philadelphi Eagles now are at the podium. Let's go to
Speaker 1: their picks. Welcome Eagle fans. Frank Arnold from Coltsville, Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: thank you Troy. With the eighty four pick in the
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen NFL Draft, my Philadelphia Eagles select Jordan Hicks, linebacker,
Speaker 1: University of Texas. Jordan Hicks linebacker, eris Texas, six one,
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty six pounds. Kind of all over
Speaker 1: the map with this guy. I think we should go
Speaker 1: to kat for Jordan Hicks, because, if I remember correctly,
Speaker 1: you've got some strong Jordan Hicks opinion that wasn't really
Speaker 1: crazy about Jordan Hicks. Um he struggled in coverage. So
Speaker 1: so what are you gonna if you're gonna put him
Speaker 1: out there in Philadelphia? And they played as an outside
Speaker 1: linebacker too. Yes, I mean he would need to be
Speaker 1: more of a thumper type of guy, and I don't
Speaker 1: think that's that's I mean, I guess he can handle it,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't a guy that I saw who was
Speaker 1: very good reading plays to him getting hand I mean,
Speaker 1: he would get handled, wouldn't get off blocks very well. Um,
Speaker 1: I didn't seem to be to be a real physical player.
Speaker 1: And he was going up against good competition. Now you
Speaker 1: know TCU and UCLA and Oklahoma and you know West
Speaker 1: Virginia's in the world. He played against, you know a
Speaker 1: lot of big schools, and I just didn't see a
Speaker 1: guy that could really get downhill, who was getting off blocks.
Speaker 1: I say, it wasn't a guy that I that I really,
Speaker 1: you know, to be Frank, I didn't enjoy watching the guy.
Speaker 1: Feels like you're drafting an athlete. Yeah, I think he
Speaker 1: was a really fluid athlete. Like you look at his
Speaker 1: three cone time, I think it was like under I
Speaker 1: think it was six seven eight. So you're talking about
Speaker 1: a guy with the skills to move really really well.
Speaker 1: It's just your worry is the power the way that
Speaker 1: he gets engulfed by blockers in the run game for
Speaker 1: a linebacker. So I think coverage is sort of what
Speaker 1: you're counting on him for because the run game is
Speaker 1: going to be a struggle at least to me, and
Speaker 1: the history of hip and achilles injuries that those are
Speaker 1: always a good to have right there. Yeah, he's want
Speaker 1: that and your linebacker, but that's chip. He'll get it.
Speaker 1: He'll get a guy who say that's the thing about
Speaker 1: it is I And and then here we go. Now
Speaker 1: we got to pick. The next pick is and this
Speaker 1: will be the Cincinnati Bengal into two thy fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals select Tyler Croft, tight end Rutgers. Tyler Croft. Okay,
Speaker 1: I love hearing that tight ends or the pick because
Speaker 1: I just don't care at all about that. Just take
Speaker 1: the guy that I don't care about. You don't care
Speaker 1: about Tyler Croft. I don't want to know anything about
Speaker 1: Tyler Croft. I mean, you guys can talk about Tyler Croft,
Speaker 1: but as far as the cowboy's interests go, it's not
Speaker 1: a need that anybody had even remotely outlined they're pushing
Speaker 1: our Carl Davis choice down to Petty. This guy is
Speaker 1: like A. He's like an H. He's like an H.
Speaker 1: He's A. He's a Why he could play in the slot.
Speaker 1: That's really some of the things you know. Yeah, Dane
Speaker 1: and I were talking about him. Dane kind of compared
Speaker 1: him to a bigger Riley Cooper that you know, with
Speaker 1: that type of a player. So when you're looking at
Speaker 1: the tight ends, it's stuff like that. Yeah, he's gonna
Speaker 1: play in the flex position. He's gonna be a getting
Speaker 1: away blocker. He's never gonna have great functional strength as
Speaker 1: a player, but he catches the football very well. He's
Speaker 1: always going to be detached, removed up the field type
Speaker 1: of players. So that's what you got from Tyler Kropp,
Speaker 1: who was selected at the eighty fifth spot by the
Speaker 1: He's from Rutgers with the from the Cincinnati Band. So
Speaker 1: this football team is based in Texas. Yeah, and Katie,
Speaker 1: are you originally from Texas? I am originally from seventy
Speaker 1: five percent of people in this room originally from Texas.
Speaker 1: So understandably getting a lot of questions about Paul Dawson,
Speaker 1: Kat's guy. How do we feel about Katie's guys. He
Speaker 1: makes every tackle, he makes every play. Yeah, K give
Speaker 1: the positives. He'll be he'll be here for the press
Speaker 1: conference in thirty five minutes. I'm sure. No. I like
Speaker 1: Paul Dawson a lot more than my comrades here, but
Speaker 1: that's just uh, that's just me. You're not bad. He
Speaker 1: doesn't know. He will not blocked. I mean he will
Speaker 1: try his hardest to not get blocked. He gets around it.
Speaker 1: He's elusive, and I think typically when you want your
Speaker 1: linebackers coming up and making plays, he'd like to see
Speaker 1: him ripped through, shed a block, take on a little
Speaker 1: bit better. Yeah, he's not doing that. He's getting around it.
Speaker 1: And then there's the off the field stuff that you know,
Speaker 1: we were talking about a little bit earlier. Um, he's
Speaker 1: the type of guy who's, you know, just he was.
Speaker 1: He was laid a lot. Gary Patterson wasn't really too
Speaker 1: high on him. But I like Paul Dawson. I think
Speaker 1: he's a guy who comes in. There's just enough tape
Speaker 1: that says, hey, war room, got war room cam back up,
Speaker 1: We are back. Yeah, we're back. So that was removed
Speaker 1: so that kat was described ahead. There was enough tape
Speaker 1: that showed him making every single play on the field,
Speaker 1: and that was enough to impress me. Yeah, and you
Speaker 1: know what, there's there's value to a linebacker that is
Speaker 1: able to work his way through traffic and make every
Speaker 1: tackle on a running back. And I think at this spot,
Speaker 1: you know, get into this, right, I think he you
Speaker 1: know what, tell me if his best fit is a
Speaker 1: three four team where you can have one middle linebacker
Speaker 1: that's the sum and he's the free one and he's
Speaker 1: the runner. Yeah. Yeah, But the thing about it is
Speaker 1: if you leave him uncovered, you know, he's gonna try
Speaker 1: and avoid blocks. So but when he does avoid blocks
Speaker 1: and he or he does get caught, he's gonna run
Speaker 1: himself out of some potential sure, some potential plays. Right.
Speaker 1: So he's a guy though, I mean he plays that
Speaker 1: scheme they run to the ball, TC. There's no doubt
Speaker 1: about it. His ability to run to the football. And
Speaker 1: so that's the great thing about him is what he
Speaker 1: what he can do. So uh, I will I will
Speaker 1: duck off. Dane Kibler has returned after breaking our hearts. Sweet,
Speaker 1: there was a guy that went in the third round
Speaker 1: we hadn't heard of. We need you so I will
Speaker 1: be off to cover the pick and it has been fantastic. Jay,
Speaker 1: thanks for a lot of problem. I will see amorrow
Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely save ladies and Dave Hellman with the golf
Speaker 1: and a top notch football. Okay, tiny Jim, thank you
Speaker 1: very much for all you did. Oh Man. Okay, Tiny Jim, Okay,
Speaker 1: here we go with the uh as we got. Kent
Speaker 1: has now got war room cam up for you right now.
Speaker 1: Uh you see that, Uh, Jason Garrett is starting to
Speaker 1: fill in some of the picks that he might have missed. Uh.
Speaker 1: They probably had some meetings and talking about the direction
Speaker 1: that they were wanting to go in. I can't see
Speaker 1: any coaches that might give you a clue who might
Speaker 1: be in the U. In the mind U, the coach
Speaker 1: would probably stand over there behind Jerry Junior. I don't
Speaker 1: think you could see him on the screen. We can
Speaker 1: so uh but uh, you know, Dan, we've been through this.
Speaker 1: We've been through uh names, We've we've lost players, we've
Speaker 1: gained players. UH, We've we've tried to figure this all out.
Speaker 1: It seems to be that Carl Davis is the best
Speaker 1: player on our board. How about on your board. Let's
Speaker 1: go a pick right here. Uh, this is going to
Speaker 1: be the Arizona Carton the NFL Draft, the Arizona Carton'll
Speaker 1: select David Johnson. Oh, there we go. And then there
Speaker 1: was one Yeah, right? Are we are we okay? Are
Speaker 1: we okay with making that pick? Now? Waiting Dane? How
Speaker 1: do we balance Carl Davis being higher to us as
Speaker 1: a player versus Jagi being maybe our last hope as
Speaker 1: a lead runner. Well, but you gotta talk to me.
Speaker 1: He might have some other guys. He might have the runner,
Speaker 1: the USC runner. I'll take Mike Davis. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: Well with running back, okay, Ji obviously it's a little
Speaker 1: bit of a loaded uh question with the knee. Just
Speaker 1: don't know. I think for this team, you have to
Speaker 1: look at Buck Allen. Yeah, you have to look at
Speaker 1: jgii Uh. David Johnson just off the board, so that's
Speaker 1: no longer an option, right, Do you feel comfortable with
Speaker 1: one of those two guys at ninety one? But you're
Speaker 1: right about Carl Davis, a player that I think you
Speaker 1: we saw him coming off the board somewhere in the
Speaker 1: second round, maybe even a top fifty pick. So if
Speaker 1: he's still available before you at ninety let me tell
Speaker 1: you this. They had great success with Anthony Hitchens last year. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's an Iowa kick haw guy. Yeah, I mean he's
Speaker 1: and let's see, it looks like we got to go
Speaker 1: up to the podium once again. Uh, let's see what's
Speaker 1: going on right there. Commissioner's making his way. This is
Speaker 1: going to He's got a twenty fifteen NFL draft. The
Speaker 1: pitch birt Steelers select Sammy Coats, wide receiver Auburn. There's
Speaker 1: your vertical nine runner. The Steelers got lucky with a
Speaker 1: guy that had some drops in college last year with
Speaker 1: Martevis Bryant. Sure did. Yeah, that turned out. Okay, So
Speaker 1: we'll see if Sammy Coates the same way, straight speed.
Speaker 1: That is a speed guy, right there is and he's
Speaker 1: built really well. Now he doesn't look like a wide receiver. Okay.
Speaker 1: So as we're getting close to Dallas's pick, we keep
Speaker 1: talking about guys the Carl davis Is of the world.
Speaker 1: We've talked about Bryce Petty, we've thrown out, We've thrown
Speaker 1: his Hunley. Who you have Hunley over Bryce pay if
Speaker 1: they were going to a quarterback route. So it looks
Speaker 1: like some celebration going on here in the in the
Speaker 1: war room. It's Scott Lenahan just came in the room
Speaker 1: and he shaved the picks. Another picks. Let's go to
Speaker 1: the podium real quick. Twenty fifteen NFL Draft, The Minnesota
Speaker 1: Vikings select Daniel Hunter defensive end lsu All right, Daniel Hunter. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we're a little we're running. We're looking at war
Speaker 1: room cam. Here a lot of handshakes going all around
Speaker 1: that room. Scott Lenahan coming in the room. That tells
Speaker 1: you it's going to be an offensive player. This very
Speaker 1: well could be Bryce Petty. I mean, and I'm just
Speaker 1: speculating right now. We don't know the pick. We need
Speaker 1: to see. They still got Carl Davis. Uh. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's all kinds of names. But with with Lenahan coming
Speaker 1: in the room, I think that gave you a little
Speaker 1: bit of clue right now. If you're watching with us
Speaker 1: and know we're a little bit behind on probably Petty
Speaker 1: or a runner. Yeah Petty or a runner right there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, exactly, I shouldn't say I would come here
Speaker 1: to overstep my body. But the offensive coordinat in fact
Speaker 1: came in the room. Minnesota took Danil Hunter. That means
Speaker 1: that uh uh, let's see who We're back up here.
Speaker 1: We've got the RAMS selection going on right now. Let's
Speaker 1: see who the Rams have in fact select, did uh
Speaker 1: this would be what pick? Would this be? Number eighty nine?
Speaker 1: Sean Mannion, Sean Many, Grayson and Manion over Hunley and Petty.
Speaker 1: How about that? So Caroline has sends his pick that
Speaker 1: picked with the Saint Louis. If I'm not, isn't I
Speaker 1: right there? At pick that is a RAMS pick? So
Speaker 1: that means let's see exactly what happens with you know,
Speaker 1: with the with the cowboys, uh, Baltimore being on the clock,
Speaker 1: We'll see which direction they're gonna go. Uh, you know, potentially,
Speaker 1: I just start naming guys you think might might be
Speaker 1: that at that spot. Uh. Man, I tell you what,
Speaker 1: I think it's only a matter of time before we're
Speaker 1: looking at people whose boards catch up to what we've
Speaker 1: been thinking, which is Carl Davis for the last twenty picks. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Other than that, you look around there, what about Darryl
Speaker 1: Williams the offensive tackle? Yeah? What about Paul Dawson or
Speaker 1: maybe one of these corners like Josh Shaw or Steven Nelson.
Speaker 1: I'm just throwing out the guys that at least for me,
Speaker 1: look like the highest guys left. Michael Bennett, I think
Speaker 1: it's fair to about Trey Flower's name guys like that.
Speaker 1: But I just kind of waiting with Baltimore up on
Speaker 1: the clock right now. And Baltimore has a traditional history sometimes,
Speaker 1: you know, the Cowboys have always I know my experience
Speaker 1: with them, they always seem to have at everything the
Speaker 1: Cowboys going back when we were the Cowboys traded ahead
Speaker 1: against for Dez Bryant, and the Ravens have always been
Speaker 1: a team that been around the Cowboys when they're picked
Speaker 1: and stuff. Ozzie Knewsom seems to have a sense what's
Speaker 1: going on with Dallas, and they have a sense what's
Speaker 1: going on with him. So let's see, you know, with
Speaker 1: the Ravens being on the clock, I think you have
Speaker 1: to sweat this pick a little bit. The picks in
Speaker 1: here now for the Ravens, let's go to it, and
Speaker 1: then that would put the Cowboys on the clock. The
Speaker 1: pick and the two thy fifteen NFL Draft, the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Ravens select Carl Davis. Oh no, but we remember we
Speaker 1: saw these guys jeering. Yeah, so Carl Davis is not
Speaker 1: gonna be a thick. Yeah, uh, it's gonna be an
Speaker 1: offensive player here. Yeah it is, Well, it could be
Speaker 1: the quarterback. I mean we've talked about a bunch of
Speaker 1: different again. Now let me ask you this. I'm still
Speaker 1: trying to wrap my head around the Sean Manion pick.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, if you look about it, you know,
Speaker 1: if you start talking about guys again, Petty, we were quarterbacks,
Speaker 1: you know often, could they go for the swing tackle here?
Speaker 1: Could this? Would this be too early to go for
Speaker 1: the swing tackle? Maybe? I mean we've taught I mean,
Speaker 1: we've mocked guys. I keep mocking at you know, we're
Speaker 1: talking about fourth round. Chaz Green's been a guy we've mocked.
Speaker 1: I'm a big Chaz Green fan. I mean, I'm just
Speaker 1: trying to throw out names. I mean, yeah, you made
Speaker 1: you talk. You talked about offensive tackles, You talked about
Speaker 1: Green or not Green, Skimmy Williams, Y Williams, Darryl Williams
Speaker 1: and those guys. Yeah, so that would be our top two, right,
Speaker 1: Daryl Williams and Chaz Green right there? Yeah, So with
Speaker 1: whatever is going on with t J clemingson, so you know,
Speaker 1: I mean, could this be the spot? Could they value
Speaker 1: one of you know, could they value a tackle? I mean,
Speaker 1: we've we lost our defensive tackle here. But again, everybody
Speaker 1: in that room was was very very happy about the
Speaker 1: situation going on. You saw Scott Lenahan, the offensive coordinator,
Speaker 1: step in the room. I don't see anymore other than
Speaker 1: like I say, a gy is on the board, A
Speaker 1: gy is on the board. They'd be okay with him
Speaker 1: at this point. I mean, you didn't want him at
Speaker 1: sixty with the knee, what's going on with that? But
Speaker 1: here you feel okay with that type of gamble. Well,
Speaker 1: oh a little clue if you just look at the
Speaker 1: in the war room cam and remember we talked about
Speaker 1: Chad's green and if it wasn't for the injuries and
Speaker 1: a durability, I gave him a fifth. If it wasn't
Speaker 1: for the durability, I would have had him as a
Speaker 1: late too early three. Okay. So that type of talent. Okay.
Speaker 1: So Dallas's pick is in. As we look at the TV,
Speaker 1: they're in a commercial break, you know, the war room
Speaker 1: as you could see doing very well. Everybody's happy. Charlotte
Speaker 1: Jones Anderson shaking hands with Jerry. I got a little
Speaker 1: a little hint there the phone left. I saw Frank
Speaker 1: Pollock hang up the phone, So Frank Pollock was on
Speaker 1: the phone, uh down here on the left side of
Speaker 1: the screen. So that tells me that they're gonna take
Speaker 1: an offensive tackle. I think we're gonna see Chaz green
Speaker 1: be I'm not really sure. I mean, like I say,
Speaker 1: it's it's you know, would if you just look at
Speaker 1: the clues, what's going on in the in the in
Speaker 1: the room, we're gonna come back with the pick and
Speaker 1: see how that all plays out. But you talked about
Speaker 1: him Dane potentially you know a guy that could be
Speaker 1: uh that type of guy. I if it's not for
Speaker 1: the durability concerns and the injuries, I would have had
Speaker 1: green rate a lot higher. He missed all twenty thirteen
Speaker 1: uh and just was dinged ump throughout his career. Couldn't
Speaker 1: stay healthy. But he brings his position versatility left tackle,
Speaker 1: right tackle. You see the movement skills very consistent when
Speaker 1: he was on the field, A very seasoned player. M
Speaker 1: But again, can he stay on the field that that reliability?
Speaker 1: Even having my report, can he bust through that fragile tag?
Speaker 1: And as long as he can do that is a
Speaker 1: very good player. Yeah, here's the guy that's played, oh
Speaker 1: on the left and right side. Again, we're just speculating there.
Speaker 1: From what we've seen, they've now gone to the closed
Speaker 1: war room camp right there. So the pick in fact
Speaker 1: is in. So there's you know, we just need to
Speaker 1: figure out what that is. You know, this is a player,
Speaker 1: like I said, he's a young guy that it's got.
Speaker 1: I think it's got a lot of upside. Kat Jeff
Speaker 1: and he thoughts as far as if that in fact
Speaker 1: is the pack, I'm not going to get away from
Speaker 1: my sadness of not picking a runner. Yeah, I would
Speaker 1: have wanted And you said it. Frank Pollock is in
Speaker 1: there talking on the phone, which makes it sound like
Speaker 1: you're going offensive line. Yeah, so sure, the player I
Speaker 1: think is a good one. But now you're kind of
Speaker 1: taking yourself out of the guys that I would consider
Speaker 1: to be a chance to be your lead back of
Speaker 1: the stable that you've got. And I know Doug Free
Speaker 1: was banged up at the end of the year last year,
Speaker 1: but we could say that, you know, we got pretty
Speaker 1: lucky if full season your entire offensive line was healthy.
Speaker 1: It's good to have a guy like that. I just
Speaker 1: think where I wasn't it's we've had tunnel vision too,
Speaker 1: just a little bit. Oh yeah, oh, there's no doubt
Speaker 1: about that kind of running backs this whole way. The
Speaker 1: way things worked out with Gregory in the second round
Speaker 1: was kind of hoping something would fall there at the
Speaker 1: running back position at ninety one and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: and it's still possible. I like a gi I just
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, the medicals. Yeah, that warroom camp
Speaker 1: thing gives you a little bit of clues who's on
Speaker 1: the phone and who's not on the phone. So just
Speaker 1: we think it might be an offensive tackle. You know,
Speaker 1: there's a you know, we've we've kind of speculatet. We
Speaker 1: think that, you know, it could be Williams. Talk about
Speaker 1: him a little bit, Dane, if you want to, you know,
Speaker 1: talk about the massive guy playing at that right tackle
Speaker 1: though for the Oklahomah yeah, uh similar to phil Odhole
Speaker 1: who you know, another Oklahoma soon or right tackle, but
Speaker 1: uh with Darrel Williams, guy that blocks out the sun.
Speaker 1: Just that type of player with that size. Um And
Speaker 1: we talked about the tackles. If you think your tackle early,
Speaker 1: we're gonna see a little bit of a drop off.
Speaker 1: A few options We've seen some some guys come off
Speaker 1: the board having Dean uh Sam Brelow and so him
Speaker 1: at this point, Uh, you might be pressured to go
Speaker 1: get that tackle if he's still available for you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well they're they're talking about it right now here on
Speaker 1: the on the feed. Uh. So we think it's going
Speaker 1: to be an offensive tackle. We like I would assume
Speaker 1: anything to wait. We we like we all here think
Speaker 1: that that uh Chaz Green is a better player. Let's
Speaker 1: go to the podium now and the selection. With the
Speaker 1: ninety first pick in the two thousand and fifteen NFL Draft,
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys select Chash Green, tackle Florida. So so
Speaker 1: there it is. They went out and got the six five,
Speaker 1: fourteen pound Chaz Green. Uh. You talk about a guy
Speaker 1: that is very athletic. Uh. Dan's documented his uh you
Speaker 1: know there's been some talk about him. Uh, just go
Speaker 1: through his injury real quick. He missed time over his
Speaker 1: career multiple ankle injuries, sprain and two eleven, miss four
Speaker 1: games that ritch Refreshman another sprain as a senior, missed
Speaker 1: all of twous and thirteen with torn labram that required surgery,
Speaker 1: and just different bumps and bruises. Throughout his career. But uh,
Speaker 1: you know, going away from the doom and gloom, there
Speaker 1: a very talented player. You see in his kickslide a
Speaker 1: wide base athletic with his feet, he knows how to
Speaker 1: He just looks very natural in his pass sets. You
Speaker 1: see him use his hands, not afraid to punch. And
Speaker 1: he has the awareness too. He can pick up pressures.
Speaker 1: He sees the blitz. So I think with Chaz Green
Speaker 1: at this point in the draft, I like the player
Speaker 1: that you're getting as long as he stays on the field. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and any thoughts on you on your guys behalf there.
Speaker 1: You know. For me, it's hard to it would be
Speaker 1: hard to fault the team for picking an offensive lineman
Speaker 1: given the recent history of what they've done on the
Speaker 1: offensive line and how much that's become the anchor of
Speaker 1: the football team. Um, I think Kat nailed it a
Speaker 1: couple of minutes ago. I think at this point in
Speaker 1: the draft I had tunnel visioned so much on a
Speaker 1: running back and now, oh, I just wonder what you're
Speaker 1: gonna do for the runner. Now I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe I'm overreacting to Jasi. You can keep going.
Speaker 1: I think he will maybe he can keep going. I
Speaker 1: think it tells you what they think of this running
Speaker 1: back class. I think they're comfortable with five names right now.
Speaker 1: There's not one of those five names that you know,
Speaker 1: maybe if Duke Johnson was still on the board, sorry,
Speaker 1: maybe if Duke Johnson was still on the board, he's
Speaker 1: where you had. Yeah, sorry, he could beat his pig,
Speaker 1: but he's not. Sorry. Uh so maybe that in that scenario.
Speaker 1: But given the current scenario at pick ninety one, you know,
Speaker 1: you pass on the running back, you're gonna get your
Speaker 1: guy maybe fourth round. Well, you know, Chas Green and
Speaker 1: I'll i'll kind of piggyback on what Dane was talking about.
Speaker 1: You know, this guy is you know, he can drive
Speaker 1: block and you know when he blocks down inside, you
Speaker 1: know you're talking about a six five really three hundred
Speaker 1: and fifteen pound guy, very athletic, and you know when
Speaker 1: you talk about the speed of five one eight forty
Speaker 1: you you know you this this team likes to on
Speaker 1: those zone schemes. They'd like to get guys on the edges.
Speaker 1: They'd like to get big bodies out there on the outside,
Speaker 1: and this is one of those guys that can do that.
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, he's a guy that plays on
Speaker 1: his feet. You see him get a little bit over
Speaker 1: extended at times, but most young tackles will do that. So,
Speaker 1: you know, I think in pass Pro Dane was talking
Speaker 1: about the kickslide stuff. I really like the guy. The
Speaker 1: way this guy plays in pass pro, and I think
Speaker 1: that's is really one of his best strengths. Because you
Speaker 1: watch him get away from the line. I can echo
Speaker 1: exactly what Dane was talking about. But you know, again,
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to develop some strength with this guy
Speaker 1: that I think that's gonna be the biggest thing and
Speaker 1: be probably more mentally tough, develops some strength. But man,
Speaker 1: he's a very good athlete. I'll tell you what. I
Speaker 1: remember in the Alabama game, there was a play where,
Speaker 1: because you're talking about the athleticism and getting away from
Speaker 1: the line, I remember a play where he's sort of
Speaker 1: by one of their bigger and more powerful defensive lineman
Speaker 1: sort of got walked back to the quarterback. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: the very next play the guy tries the same thing
Speaker 1: and Chaz Green drops that anchor and it's like, no,
Speaker 1: that's not happening again. Like so to see the adjustment
Speaker 1: even from play to play. That's encouraging. Okay, the Packers
Speaker 1: just made a pick and they took Time Montgomery. Oh,
Speaker 1: they took my kick returner we missed. Let me go
Speaker 1: back after we were talking about that with Chaz Green
Speaker 1: here Dallas. At ninety two, Denver took Jeff Herneman Herman
Speaker 1: is that hireman from Ohio State? Excuse me, Jeff Hireman,
Speaker 1: the tied end from Ohio State. And then the Indianapolis
Speaker 1: Colts took Henry Anderson, the defensive end from Stanford. So
Speaker 1: we like this guy, we like him very much. And
Speaker 1: now we've got the Green Bay Packers taking uh, Tie Montgomery. Uh,
Speaker 1: probably handle all their stuff. As far as the kick,
Speaker 1: he's like a he's like a loose play guy. You know.
Speaker 1: They do a lot of different things with him, Dane Uh.
Speaker 1: As far as trying to get him the football, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to manufacture touches for him. A player that
Speaker 1: we thought maybe be there in the fourth fifth round. Um,
Speaker 1: he can impact you your team right away on special
Speaker 1: teams and whatever he adds on offense. Really a bonus.
Speaker 1: So interesting pick for the Packers there with Time Montgomery. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and that to me, inconsistent hands and when I watched
Speaker 1: him play. Here's here's another pick again, let's go. This
Speaker 1: is the Redskins. They got this in Seattle fifteen NFL Draft.
Speaker 1: The Washington Redskins select Matt Jones, running back Florida. Interesting.
Speaker 1: Matt Jones actually liked him a little bit. One of
Speaker 1: the bigger backs, will get downhill and as a just
Speaker 1: sort of a power guy. Just give me the ball,
Speaker 1: watch me get downhill. I'm gonna be kind of tough
Speaker 1: to tackle. And I saw him in pass pro taking
Speaker 1: on some bigger guys and was really able to hold.
Speaker 1: Oh he's a big guys, a linebacker. Yeah, he's six
Speaker 1: two days and he's he's a big guy and so
Speaker 1: he'll run over you. Another guy talk about these Florida
Speaker 1: guys dealing with injuries. That was Matt Jones junior. Came
Speaker 1: out early, but a player that offers a lot that
Speaker 1: you know, he's not gonna hide behind blockers because he's
Speaker 1: so big. He's not gonna really use his elusiveness to
Speaker 1: make guys miss, but he'll run over you. He'll run
Speaker 1: when he runs behind his pad. He has some powers.
Speaker 1: So make Jones interesting that he's the next running back
Speaker 1: off the board. There and awesome and awesome, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: I'm still holding out that Jaji you hope, right. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well again that's and a lot of it has to
Speaker 1: do with the the the the knee and then medical report,
Speaker 1: because again a Jai would be a guy that would
Speaker 1: be uh off the board or would be you know,
Speaker 1: would be taken by now. Okay, so let's go to
Speaker 1: our new member of the Dallas Cowboy University of Florida
Speaker 1: offensive tackle Chaz green Chatz. You're with Brian broad Us
Speaker 1: in company here for Dallas Cowboys dot Com. We're covering
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft and we're very excited to welcome you
Speaker 1: to the Dallas Cowboys if the dream comes too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm really really grateful for this opportunity. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to get up there. Well, Chats, we were talking about
Speaker 1: and this is a team last year, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: a playoff team. You know, you're used to winning a
Speaker 1: lot of football games, yourself, outstanding football program there at Florida.
Speaker 1: You come to Dallas here, you know, Yeah, the offensive
Speaker 1: tackle position here, you know, you could do a lot
Speaker 1: of different things. I think you know, play left, right side.
Speaker 1: Is there one side though that you feel the most
Speaker 1: comfortable at? Or are you one of these guys that say, Hey,
Speaker 1: wherever they're gonna line me up here, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: play football. I'm definitely a guy that says, whenever you
Speaker 1: line me up either type of position, I feel comfortable at.
Speaker 1: I can sliding to play guard. I'm grateful for the
Speaker 1: opportunity to come in and be able to help this
Speaker 1: organization or coach Paul all those guys, Coach Garrett, I
Speaker 1: mean coming in and be able to learn behind um
Speaker 1: Tyron Smith and Duck Free and those guys. And I'm
Speaker 1: just really grateful, you know, for the opportunities. Yeah, Jazz,
Speaker 1: you talked about did they say something about you potentially
Speaker 1: playing guard? I just kind of picked up something you said.
Speaker 1: Or is it just that was something you're just willing
Speaker 1: to do if you had to. I'm just willing to do.
Speaker 1: I think they've talked about me playing a mainly swing tackle, okay,
Speaker 1: and you know that I'll do that as well as guard.
Speaker 1: You know, whatever the other team needs, I'm available to
Speaker 1: do that. I got you, man. Hey, Jazz is Rob
Speaker 1: Phillips from Dallas Cowboys dot Com. Congratulations. I want to
Speaker 1: ask you about the Cowboys offensive line. Is it excites
Speaker 1: you to come to an offensive line that well documented.
Speaker 1: They've got a lot of talent. Three Pro Bowlers and
Speaker 1: uh not only that developed a guy in one year
Speaker 1: who made the All Pro team. Does that excite you? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's an honor to say that Lisa's an them. It's
Speaker 1: a dream come true to being with the organization with
Speaker 1: as much history and much legacy and that especially as
Speaker 1: far as getting us a line. You know, it's the
Speaker 1: best offensive lot of them I play in last season.
Speaker 1: And you know, like I said, coming in being able
Speaker 1: to learn are on two great tackles and Tyronne Smith,
Speaker 1: you know, Dug Free and just being able to get
Speaker 1: around that guy, those guys and that culture and just
Speaker 1: being able to grow. You know, I'm just I'm just
Speaker 1: looking forward to day one. I just want to get
Speaker 1: to work as soon as possible, to know chess, you know,
Speaker 1: when you you know, you look at Andre and Rob
Speaker 1: was asking about that, about you coming in and working
Speaker 1: with this group and all that and being a swing
Speaker 1: tackle and stuff. Though it's you know, it's playing in
Speaker 1: the in the Southeastern Conference and you're talking to an
Speaker 1: LSU man here right now. So you know, many at
Speaker 1: many a day of watching you block my guys and
Speaker 1: taking Hunter out of the play and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: So I don't always appreciate how great you were against
Speaker 1: my OLSCU Tigres. But but when when you know, you
Speaker 1: talk about playing at Florida and then how it's prepared
Speaker 1: you with you know, they've got some outstanding edge rushers
Speaker 1: that play in the SEC week in week out. You
Speaker 1: guys never shied away from competition. Talk about though, your
Speaker 1: development though at Florida and how that's going to help
Speaker 1: you play here at the National Football League. I mean
Speaker 1: just over the course of my career, you said, I
Speaker 1: played against great players in practice and in games, and
Speaker 1: I'm very, very fortunate that I played in the SEC.
Speaker 1: You know, at the University of Florida. It didn't go
Speaker 1: as planned. Obviously, wish you to have one more games,
Speaker 1: but the fact that I got that competition every day
Speaker 1: in practice, one of these guys like Fowler and easily
Speaker 1: and then going against guys like Cloudy in the games,
Speaker 1: I mean, it just it just prepared me. I feel
Speaker 1: like for the next level. How important was it, Chatz
Speaker 1: to come back your senior season and have a healthy season.
Speaker 1: I know you've gone through some injuries the past few years. Uh,
Speaker 1: not only for your draft stock, but just how how
Speaker 1: important was it for you to finish your college career off,
Speaker 1: you know, on the right foot. It was, it was,
Speaker 1: it was a great decision. It was. It was definitely
Speaker 1: something that that I thought about. Um, you know, happen
Speaker 1: to shit out twenty thirteen, but coming back, you know,
Speaker 1: being anointed as one of the team team captains by
Speaker 1: my team, he's you know, it is one of the
Speaker 1: greatest memories that I'll never forget, you know, going back
Speaker 1: to just just all that time you spend bonding with
Speaker 1: you guys in college and you never get that back.
Speaker 1: So you know, I wouldn't change it for the world.
Speaker 1: I'm glad I came back and finished my fifth year
Speaker 1: and we had we had a we had a pretty
Speaker 1: good season, you know, not as good as plan. But
Speaker 1: I'll never change, you know, anything that I did. Chats,
Speaker 1: and I'm just asking the question, did did you come
Speaker 1: in for one of the thirty visits? I think I
Speaker 1: saw your name on that list that you were one
Speaker 1: of the guys that came in and got to visit
Speaker 1: with the coaches and see the facility. Man, Am I
Speaker 1: right about that? Yes, okay, so they put you on
Speaker 1: the Yeah, they put Frank Pollock, Coach Pollock and those
Speaker 1: those guys put at you on the board and all
Speaker 1: that stuff like that, and and so it really a
Speaker 1: good opportunity for you as well, not only for them
Speaker 1: to get to know you, which obviously you know they
Speaker 1: feel good enough about you to draft, but the fact
Speaker 1: you got to know them, and you talk a little
Speaker 1: bit about your experience when you came into Dallas and
Speaker 1: being a part of the thirty day visit here. You know,
Speaker 1: when I when I went on five visits and when
Speaker 1: I came to Dallas, I could tell it it was
Speaker 1: just it was a first class organization and it was
Speaker 1: a step up from from all the other teams. You know,
Speaker 1: everything clearly is bigger in sechs Um meeting with all
Speaker 1: the coaches, coach Coach Garrett, meeting with mister Jones, and
Speaker 1: just you could just tell that it was there was
Speaker 1: a there was a different legacy behind the organization that
Speaker 1: you know, I felt honored at the time if I could,
Speaker 1: if I was fortunate enough to end up there. And
Speaker 1: now that now that they drafted meet you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's just a dream come true. To be a part
Speaker 1: of it, and like I said, I just can't wait
Speaker 1: to get the work now. We just started talking about
Speaker 1: it as when you get the work. Oh that's great.
Speaker 1: Well hey listen Chas they congratulations again. I know the
Speaker 1: guys and watching here from our positioner of Valley Ranch.
Speaker 1: Everybody in the war room all high fives, hugs all around.
Speaker 1: Very happy to have you as part of the Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys and we look forward to seeing you here real
Speaker 1: soon and seeing you out in the football field and
Speaker 1: covering you from Dallas Cowboys dot Com. You've got a great,
Speaker 1: huge fan base here and I'm sure everybody's gonna find
Speaker 1: you a wonderful guy to cover and to be a
Speaker 1: fan of. Okay, yes, I'll appreciate you everything. All right,
Speaker 1: thanks Chess, all right, thank you. As Chaz Green, the
Speaker 1: offensive tackle newly drafted from the University of Florida's Yeah,
Speaker 1: he used to beat up on my LSU get that kid. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he moves really well. He'd love the movement skills. And
Speaker 1: you saw that at the combine and you see it
Speaker 1: on his tape. At the combine ran a four eight
Speaker 1: six forty yard dash and for a big guy to
Speaker 1: six three two ninety three, so he moves really well
Speaker 1: for a size. He was kind of out of position
Speaker 1: I thought at Washington State and their three four based defense,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna go to a three four based defense
Speaker 1: in Cleveland. So we'll be interesting to see how that
Speaker 1: plays out where they see him playing. I liked him
Speaker 1: best as a three technique. Um, where did you see him? Brian?
Speaker 1: I thought he was a three technique myself. I mean
Speaker 1: that's where where I mean I felt like Trader. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I felt like that if he could play on the
Speaker 1: outside shoulder and then he could find a way to
Speaker 1: get up the field. I think that was something that
Speaker 1: was going to be very very positive for him as
Speaker 1: far as the fully again not playing as a two
Speaker 1: gap guy. Can't you got something for me? We're gonna
Speaker 1: have a press conference here pretty soon from the Cowboys
Speaker 1: executive so people stay tuned to this feed. It'll be
Speaker 1: on this channel, Okay, that we will have the we
Speaker 1: will have they will wrap up what was going on
Speaker 1: in the second and third rounds today, the Cowboys making
Speaker 1: a couple of selections. Uh, you know, everybody was very
Speaker 1: excited about the opportunities that they, you know, coming into
Speaker 1: this to this day. H Randy Gregory falling to them
Speaker 1: with that sixtieth pick, Jerry Jones, Stephen Jones, Jason Garrett,
Speaker 1: you know again, and Randy was talking about the supports him.
Speaker 1: He's got a chip on his shoulder, he's excited about
Speaker 1: being here. I think he's got a lot to prove.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of hurdles for him to still clear.
Speaker 1: But if he can do that, we're talking about an
Speaker 1: elite talent right there. No, there's no question about it.
Speaker 1: And you know again, a player that we talked about
Speaker 1: maybe at twenty seven, you know, could he come off
Speaker 1: the board there? And he doesn't. He lasts until the
Speaker 1: second round and the Cowboys stay put and their guy
Speaker 1: guy falls in them. So outstanding to see that happen. Well,
Speaker 1: it looks like we're going to be joined here by
Speaker 1: offensive line coach Frank Pollock. Coach, you just put on
Speaker 1: the headsets there and hopefully they fit. Coach Frank Pock.
Speaker 1: Brian brought us. Dane Brugler from Dallas Cowboys dot Com,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. We really appreciate.
Speaker 1: We just got off the phone with Chaz and he
Speaker 1: was excited about the opportunity to play for you and
Speaker 1: you know, and I didn't know if you had the
Speaker 1: opportunity to go work him out or at Florida. But
Speaker 1: just talk about the impressions you had of Chatz and
Speaker 1: its process going through right. Well, I watched him on
Speaker 1: tape early in the process. Like what I saw. He's athletic,
Speaker 1: he can play multiple positions. He's got a good football character.
Speaker 1: He looks to finish guys, he's got a good change
Speaker 1: of direction, he's sudden. And then through our draft process,
Speaker 1: how the opportunity to go work him out of Florida
Speaker 1: as well, and everything you see on tape he showed
Speaker 1: you in his private workout. He's explosive, a lot more
Speaker 1: explosive than I thought, and I was impressive. I like
Speaker 1: the young man. He did a nice shop in the classroom,
Speaker 1: picking up some of the things I was teaching him
Speaker 1: and be able to give it back to me as well.
Speaker 1: So he's got a lot of upside. Excited to work
Speaker 1: with him. Frankie, You've guess have developed really a special
Speaker 1: room over there. We've all talked about the young kids
Speaker 1: that you have, but you have a guy like Doug
Speaker 1: Freed that's, you know, a veteran It kind of keeps
Speaker 1: everybody in line though, and I expect that you think
Speaker 1: the Chaz will be will fit right in with that group.
Speaker 1: A hard working, blue collar type of guys if you
Speaker 1: want to use a cliche, but that type of group.
Speaker 1: He seems to have those kind of characteristics and traits. Yeah. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: he was kind of raised that way. Military background family
Speaker 1: as far as you know the Florida program as well.
Speaker 1: He's got great work ethic. All the reports come back
Speaker 1: high on him from the head coach to his position coach,
Speaker 1: and they'll do a great job fit in our room.
Speaker 1: Do you feel go ahead? Dan? He played tackle? Do
Speaker 1: you think he could play inside a guard? If he did?
Speaker 1: He's played guard as well in the past, so you
Speaker 1: can play both positions. Yeah. We were asking him and
Speaker 1: meet because he said how you think he fits and
Speaker 1: he says, heck, I want to play anywhere, and he
Speaker 1: threw out guard and I my second question with way
Speaker 1: if you talked about playing a little guard. So that's
Speaker 1: something though that you've as as an organization with you
Speaker 1: coming in as a coach in the last couple of years,
Speaker 1: a lot of guys having to play a lot of
Speaker 1: multiple positions here on this offensive line, and so it's
Speaker 1: something very important that you obviously saw in the player. Right.
Speaker 1: What's unique about this league is you only address usually
Speaker 1: seven guys on game day, so that's two backups for
Speaker 1: five spots. So you gotta play multiple spots if you're
Speaker 1: not a full time starter. And that's just the way
Speaker 1: it is in this league. So you have to be
Speaker 1: able to cross train guys whether we tackle guard guards, center,
Speaker 1: center guard, whether their number one position is, they're going
Speaker 1: to have a second position, They're getting just as much
Speaker 1: reps and experience and workout. One thing I loved about
Speaker 1: Chaz Green talking to people who knew him, just the
Speaker 1: mental toughness, the way he came back from injuries, the
Speaker 1: way he persevered. Is that something that you could tell
Speaker 1: when you were talking to him and getting the no chazz. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's all business, very mature, and that's definitely important. As
Speaker 1: far as especially fitting in our room. Got a great
Speaker 1: blue collar group, well you do, yes, there they're workers,
Speaker 1: they're professionals, absolutely, so we're I'm very fortunate the coaching
Speaker 1: room like that. And then he'll be a great addition,
Speaker 1: so you know, and going through when you said that,
Speaker 1: all the fits and things with you know, we as
Speaker 1: we try and evaluate, Oh, they run zone schemes, they
Speaker 1: do this, but the tackle position, though, You've got guys
Speaker 1: that are really are outstanding athletes, a lot of guys,
Speaker 1: especially in the running games success you had working with
Speaker 1: the tight ends, getting guys on the edge, capturing the edge,
Speaker 1: and then getting guys to the outside. Second level. Chaz
Speaker 1: Green and the tapes that i'd seen it, it looks
Speaker 1: like he's a kid very capable of doing those kinds
Speaker 1: of things. Yeah, he can at both first and second level.
Speaker 1: It's very important in our offense. In our scheme, you
Speaker 1: can play at the second level cover up linebackers with success.
Speaker 1: Well he's on the back side or the front side.
Speaker 1: He's showing you can do that. Well. Coach, thank you
Speaker 1: very much for coming buy and having a few words
Speaker 1: and congratulations. Get the guy you're gonna work with and
Speaker 1: know do great things with. So Frank Pock, the offensive
Speaker 1: line coach for the Dallas Cowboys, taking a little time
Speaker 1: out of his busy schedule, very happy about having Chads
Speaker 1: Green here to be a part of his room. And
Speaker 1: I asked a question about the room. It's a very
Speaker 1: close room. Yeah, it's a very when you talk about
Speaker 1: those guys and how they all fit together. Doug Free
Speaker 1: is obviously the leader there, you know, but they do
Speaker 1: have a bunch of young guys that can do have
Speaker 1: done some amazing things already very young in their career,
Speaker 1: and Chad Green will get this opportunity to be a
Speaker 1: part of that. And for the offensive line, you're only
Speaker 1: as strong as your weakest link. You know, you have
Speaker 1: to play in unison, you have to have the communication.
Speaker 1: So that's great to hear that Chad's Green fits exactly
Speaker 1: what they want, not only on the field, but behind
Speaker 1: the scenes stuff that necessarily fans don't see. Well, the
Speaker 1: due diligence, you know. Frank Frank Pollacko and he had
Speaker 1: him in the thirty visit. He goes to Gainesville, he
Speaker 1: puts him on the board. He's comfortable with everything about him.
Speaker 1: So you know, the fact that he could play a
Speaker 1: lot of different positions I think also helps to okay,
Speaker 1: Keke Kerrison tells me and Douglas tells me that we
Speaker 1: have some secret audio from Chad Green, So let's go
Speaker 1: to that jazzy This is Jerry Jones with a Dallas cowboy. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm doing just fine, and I'm sitting here with our
Speaker 1: head coach and our offensive coordinator and our offensive line coach,
Speaker 1: and we're all high five and you're a Dallas cowboy.
Speaker 1: Now we just turned the part in. But congratulations of
Speaker 1: everybody that had a lot of good things to say
Speaker 1: about you. So you're a hard worker and can compete,
Speaker 1: and you're going to be with some of the greatest
Speaker 1: coaches in the world. You've heard promise you won't make
Speaker 1: him to think with the great listen, I'd like talk
Speaker 1: to you longer. I'm gonna hand this phone were to
Speaker 1: our head coach and he don't welcome you. Okay, Chas,
Speaker 1: Chaz Green, your Thirst, Jason Garrett here, how are you man,
Speaker 1: I'm doing great, Coach, Well, congratulations, I had a great
Speaker 1: visit with Coach must Champ yesterday. He speaks the world
Speaker 1: of you, and I'm excited to have you a part
Speaker 1: of this thing. Thirst. You're ready to get into work
Speaker 1: as soon as possible. Okay, very good, All right, congrats man,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. Okay, Well, that was Jerry Jones.
Speaker 1: It's always been exciting for those kids. Jy. You looked
Speaker 1: at your phone and Jerry Jones is on the phone
Speaker 1: and and Jerry has a way of making these kids
Speaker 1: feel very special about their selection with the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1: Chaz no different. Jason Garrett talk about gave you lew
Speaker 1: insight there. He talked to Will Muschamp, who's now the
Speaker 1: defensive coordinator at Auburn but was the head coach during
Speaker 1: Chaz's career at Florida. So all they do is you
Speaker 1: try and get as much information as possible about these players,
Speaker 1: and that's what they're doing, talking about the most information
Speaker 1: as possible. Um A lot of questions about why Chaz
Speaker 1: Green over TJ Clemmings well with clumbings and that that
Speaker 1: stretch fracture in his foot, it's bad. You know, it's
Speaker 1: got to be bad. And that's the thing is just
Speaker 1: a lot of question marks about that, something that came
Speaker 1: up late in the process. When you're dealing with these,
Speaker 1: uh these injuries, it's it's a tough thing. You have
Speaker 1: to listen to your doctors, listen to the trainers, and
Speaker 1: really go based off of what they tell you. And
Speaker 1: obviously with TJ Clemmings, the news the doctors gave not promising, No,
Speaker 1: not promising at all. So well, that's gonna do it
Speaker 1: for us tonight. We can't thank you guys enough for
