Speaker 1: Welcome to another very special edition of the OTP. I'm
Speaker 1: Amy Wells, joined by the Draft duo coach Day McGinnis
Speaker 1: and Rhett Brian. Hi guys, thanks for being here. Hi
Speaker 1: Amy Wells, Hi Riett, Hello Coach Matt Amy. It's good
Speaker 1: to be joined with both of y'all, looking forward to
Speaker 1: another OTP and talking a little defensive linemen. Absolutely, we
Speaker 1: are still remote, we are keeping a distance from each other,
Speaker 1: but it is good to see your smiling faces via
Speaker 1: the interwebs. But yes, RHTT, as you said, we are
Speaker 1: talking defensive linemen, and I think that this is going
Speaker 1: to be a really fun topic to come and talk
Speaker 1: about because well, defensive line is kind of important. And Mac,
Speaker 1: I want to start with you because you and I
Speaker 1: were having some conversations before we did this podcast, trying to,
Speaker 1: you know, get an understanding of what we're all thinking
Speaker 1: about putting our notes together, and you had mentioned something
Speaker 1: that really stuck with me. You mentioned that a lot
Speaker 1: of these guys in this defensive line group could grade
Speaker 1: a little differently, like four different teams teams. Teams could
Speaker 1: grade them a little bit differently based on the flavor
Speaker 1: that a team likes or needs explain that to me.
Speaker 1: What does a team's flavor mean? Well, And first of all,
Speaker 1: it depends on how you're going to deploy your front,
Speaker 1: your front, you know, and your back you have to
Speaker 1: be able to join together. But also your front can
Speaker 1: be different. Are you gonna are you going to deploy
Speaker 1: a three man front and play two gap people or
Speaker 1: are you going to play a four man front or
Speaker 1: a four man front that has shifted to a three
Speaker 1: man front with movement? You know, what are you going
Speaker 1: to do? What type of defense are you going to play?
Speaker 1: From front to back? And that's what's important, because some
Speaker 1: guys as defensive front people, some guys are better suited
Speaker 1: to being two gap players. And what I mean by
Speaker 1: two gap players is is they're able to fire off
Speaker 1: into offensive linemen, hold the line of scrimmage and just
Speaker 1: hold that gap and then let the linebackers or whoever
Speaker 1: the drop down safeties are free flow to the gaps.
Speaker 1: Some people like to use their defensive front as the
Speaker 1: people to run those gaps and then let the linebackers
Speaker 1: do what we call overlap, let them run out and
Speaker 1: let him run from inside out to overlap once all
Speaker 1: the gaps have been canceled and players have different abilities
Speaker 1: to do this. And so depending on what your philosophy is,
Speaker 1: and what's your defensive scheme philosophy is, there are different
Speaker 1: types or flavors, as I said, of defensive linemen that
Speaker 1: fit into your scheme. Now, Red, I want to start
Speaker 1: with you and ask this question because we know there
Speaker 1: are a lot of different positions within a defensive line.
Speaker 1: A lot of different guys make up the initial line.
Speaker 1: Our team's grading different positions differently and placing different values
Speaker 1: on the different positions within that one line. I would
Speaker 1: think so, And that's just kind of figgybacking off what
Speaker 1: coach Mac just said there. And depending on what you're
Speaker 1: set up is whether you're a three four defense and
Speaker 1: you know you have basically a couple of d tackles
Speaker 1: on either side the nose tackle in the middle, or
Speaker 1: whether you're a four three defense. But yeah, absolutely, I
Speaker 1: would think that anybody that can play in the nose
Speaker 1: or a different shade technique and also be an edge
Speaker 1: player up front, like a Jurrell Casey was certainly would
Speaker 1: have a different kind of grade on them, not just
Speaker 1: the athletic and the measurables part of it, but the
Speaker 1: skill set in you know, as a whole. All right, now, Mac,
Speaker 1: there seems to be a consensus that Auburn's Derek Brown
Speaker 1: and South Carolina's Javon Kinlaw are the two top defensive
Speaker 1: tackles in this group. What is it about these two
Speaker 1: guys that sets them apart from everyone else in that group?
Speaker 1: You know, both of these guys, amy are able to
Speaker 1: play the run and the past, you know, pretty pretty
Speaker 1: much equally. Well, they're both They're both big physical guys.
Speaker 1: They've got really good extension. In other words, they can
Speaker 1: make they can move the line of scrimmage. Now, what
Speaker 1: you're always talking about with the line of scrimmage offensively
Speaker 1: or defensively is that if you're being successful, you want
Speaker 1: to play on the other person's side of the line
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Both of these guys have a lot of
Speaker 1: knock back to him. Brown is a little bit different
Speaker 1: in the fact that he is really really stout, you know,
Speaker 1: against the run, and he's a really good horizontal player
Speaker 1: once he gets through the line of scrimmage. His chaseability
Speaker 1: at his size is really good. Ken Law is longer
Speaker 1: than Brown is. He's longer's got more extension to him,
Speaker 1: but still he is a disruptor. And both of these
Speaker 1: guys can be centerpieces for defensive fronts, you know, for
Speaker 1: your for your team, and that's why I think both
Speaker 1: of them. And plus they've both produced boost at a
Speaker 1: high level at a premier NCAA level. They're both Southeastern
Speaker 1: Conference players that week after week after week are playing
Speaker 1: against more of the same type of people they would
Speaker 1: be competing against in the National Football League, and so
Speaker 1: you've got a pretty good idea of what they can
Speaker 1: do on a consistent basis with their size, their knocked back,
Speaker 1: their length, and their athletic ability. Right, are there other
Speaker 1: defensive linemen that may not be of that elite status
Speaker 1: but still be of the caliber to be going in
Speaker 1: the first round? Absolutely there are, And after Javon ken
Speaker 1: Law and Derek Brown, there's a group of really good
Speaker 1: guys in there that would be in the middle to
Speaker 1: bottom of the first round, probably in another tier down.
Speaker 1: But you're talking about a guy like a Ross Blacklock
Speaker 1: from TCU or At Gallimore from Canada who played at
Speaker 1: Oklahoma who's still kind of learning the position. And there's
Speaker 1: some other guys also, a Marlon Davidson of Auburn who
Speaker 1: played with Derek Brown his teammate there. And then there's
Speaker 1: guys on down the line McTelvin, a gene from Arkansas.
Speaker 1: And then we get into the lay rounds with you know,
Speaker 1: guys like the twins from Nebraska, Carlos and Khalil Davis.
Speaker 1: There's some guys throughout this thing, but the first two
Speaker 1: that we mentioned are the top of the tier, and
Speaker 1: then there's some really good ones right after that in
Speaker 1: the middle of the bottom of the first round. Mac,
Speaker 1: what about you, Are there any guys that you think
Speaker 1: are of first round caliber? You know what, I think
Speaker 1: He's He's covered most of those. My next guy after
Speaker 1: Brown and Kenlaw would be Blacklock. And Blacklock. You know,
Speaker 1: you hear sometimes Amy and for our listeners on the OTP,
Speaker 1: you hear about guys that are making moves, you know,
Speaker 1: before the draft, are coming up before the draft. Blacklock
Speaker 1: is one of those guys. And the more you watch Blacklock,
Speaker 1: I mean when you watch him in Gary Patterson's defense,
Speaker 1: he played out of a four point stance, which means
Speaker 1: in that defense he had you talked about different flays.
Speaker 1: He had both hands on the ground and he was
Speaker 1: charged sometimes with two gapping things. But you can just
Speaker 1: envision his ability and his athletic ability if you get
Speaker 1: him into a three point stands, whether it's a right
Speaker 1: hand or a left handed three point stands, that this
Speaker 1: guy could play in either an even or an odd front.
Speaker 1: And so his stock has been rising throughout this draft.
Speaker 1: But I think Red has hit has hit most of
Speaker 1: those guys, and to me, any of the other names
Speaker 1: would be after first round picks, but Blacklock. Blacklock may
Speaker 1: not go in the first round, but to me as
Speaker 1: a riser, we still got some time before the draft
Speaker 1: shows up. And again Amy depending on what people do
Speaker 1: between now and the draft with their depth and defensive fronts,
Speaker 1: that helps guys rising the draft also. But Blacklock is
Speaker 1: my main guy that I think belongs really close to
Speaker 1: those other two we just mentioned. Now, Mac, I want
Speaker 1: to ask you something before we continue on, because you
Speaker 1: would mentioned hand placement, two hands on the ground, We
Speaker 1: talk about one hand on the ground, right hand, left hand,
Speaker 1: all of these different things. Explain for our listeners what
Speaker 1: that means and how that can impact the way that
Speaker 1: you evaluate a player. Well, I mean, first of all,
Speaker 1: you know when you're watching a player, and a lot
Speaker 1: of these guys I mean, they have to do what
Speaker 1: their college system, you know, charges them to do. You know,
Speaker 1: you see very, very seldom well you see a defensive
Speaker 1: lineman in the National Football League play out of a
Speaker 1: four point stance with both hands on the ground. The
Speaker 1: only time you really see that is in short yardage
Speaker 1: or goal line situations where they're trying to anchor down
Speaker 1: to get all four points on the ground and be
Speaker 1: able to just play knocked back. They're not really trying
Speaker 1: to do anything other than get knocked back. But to
Speaker 1: be to be able to be a multiple defensive lineman
Speaker 1: in the National Football League gaming, you've got to be
Speaker 1: able to rush the passer. And you to rush the passer,
Speaker 1: you do it one or two ways. You do it
Speaker 1: in a right handed stance or a left handed stance,
Speaker 1: and that depends on which hand is up and which
Speaker 1: foot is by all right, and a lot of that
Speaker 1: depends on what side of the line of scrimmage you
Speaker 1: play on, and sometimes it depends on some of us
Speaker 1: are left handed, some of us are right hand dominant.
Speaker 1: A lot of that depends on that. But to me,
Speaker 1: when you're watching somebody play, you don't ever, you don't
Speaker 1: ever grate anybody down from the way they play in college,
Speaker 1: because you don't know for sure, and you might know,
Speaker 1: but they have to do what their defense requires them
Speaker 1: to do. At that point. What you're trying to do
Speaker 1: is look at traits that you know you can get
Speaker 1: a hold of and can help them and mow them
Speaker 1: doing not only what you want to do, but maybe
Speaker 1: can accentuate their ability in some areas a little better.
Speaker 1: All right, Ratt, Let's talk about some of these Day
Speaker 1: two picks. I would assume that there are a lot
Speaker 1: of guys that teams could get in that day two.
Speaker 1: I think when you start talking about day two in
Speaker 1: the rounds two going into three, the leader in the clubhouse,
Speaker 1: if let's just say that all the guys we mentioned,
Speaker 1: the Ross, Ross, Blacklocks, Nevil Gallimore, and top guys are
Speaker 1: already taken at that point. Justin Mattabouquet from Texas A
Speaker 1: and M I think, is one of the top guys
Speaker 1: on the next day when you're going forward. He's a
Speaker 1: guy six two sixty three and change three hundred and
Speaker 1: some odd pounds, showed really good first explosive step and
Speaker 1: his measurables at the combine. Had a nice year in
Speaker 1: A and m's defense. And he is a guy that
Speaker 1: I think is on a lot of folks radar. If
Speaker 1: this is a position not only of need, but for
Speaker 1: depth there, it has a chance to contribute pretty early on.
Speaker 1: And I mentioned Marlon Davidson who was Derek Brown's team
Speaker 1: late at Auburn. He would be somebody right there in
Speaker 1: that second to third round that would be hanging around. Now, Mac,
Speaker 1: what about players that maybe on the bubble and that
Speaker 1: could end up being really good value players for any
Speaker 1: NFL team? Yeah, you know, Rex mentioned those guys that
Speaker 1: look and now again we're back into flavor. I mean,
Speaker 1: what do you what do you really want? I mean,
Speaker 1: there's a guy. There's a guy named Laurell Murchison that's
Speaker 1: at North air Line of State six two, two hundred
Speaker 1: and ninety four pounds. He's a red shirt senior. He
Speaker 1: needs upper body's strength. He plays a little bit upright,
Speaker 1: but he's got some contact balance and you know he's
Speaker 1: under sized. He lacks a strong anchor. But if you
Speaker 1: if you're gonna move your defensive front, this is a
Speaker 1: guy you might want. The guy on the other end
Speaker 1: of that spectrum, Amy, let's talk about a guy named
Speaker 1: leaky Foetu from from Utah. Now, this is a six five,
Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty seven pound guy. He's number ninety
Speaker 1: nine there. He's got size, he's got tremendous upper body's strength.
Speaker 1: He's got a good motor. He's got explosion. I'm reading
Speaker 1: off my report explosion for player his size. He plays
Speaker 1: a little upright, which a lot of big guys do
Speaker 1: because they think they can just stand up kind of
Speaker 1: like a bear just mall people. You know, he needs
Speaker 1: to keep his pads down, but he's got he's got
Speaker 1: some hit and need ben He's got a high cut frame,
Speaker 1: but he's got long arms, strong hands. He's a strong
Speaker 1: run defender. So if you're looking for a guy that
Speaker 1: you want to be able to set the anchor, you
Speaker 1: know in a two down system, you're not going to
Speaker 1: get a whole lot of pass rush out of him,
Speaker 1: you know, in a sub package. But then again, flavor,
Speaker 1: depending on what you want. Those are kind of two
Speaker 1: guys you know that I would say in the third
Speaker 1: one that I might go in there. This is for you,
Speaker 1: Amy Jordan Elliott, Adam Missouri. There you go. He's a
Speaker 1: red shirt. He's a red shirt junior and he's got
Speaker 1: some quickness. Okay, now there's a lot to his game
Speaker 1: that he's got to refine, but he's another guy that
Speaker 1: you might want to look at. And the last guy
Speaker 1: for me is Jason Strowbridge from North Carolina. Jason Strowbridge
Speaker 1: is six four, two hundred and sixty seven pounds. He's
Speaker 1: a red shirt senior. He's long, he's large, He's an
Speaker 1: interior player. He'd be a five technique, which is which
Speaker 1: is playing on the outside shoulder of a tackle in
Speaker 1: a three four front. To me, that's what he would be,
Speaker 1: and he just needs more lower bodied master anchor. But
Speaker 1: he's got some quickness and some traits to develop. And
Speaker 1: so any of these guys we're talking about down through
Speaker 1: the belly of the draft, you're gonna have to develop
Speaker 1: some of these They're not ready made guys. None of
Speaker 1: these guys are ready He may, but you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to develop a few more of these traits. RTT, do
Speaker 1: you have any value players. Another one that I didn't
Speaker 1: mention that is raised ranking wise pretty high, but I
Speaker 1: think isn't as fluid an athlete, but as one of
Speaker 1: the biggest guys at this position is Riguan Davis from
Speaker 1: Alabama six seven, three hundred and twelve pounds, so he
Speaker 1: can eat up space. He's just not as fluid in
Speaker 1: the hips an explosion that you'd like to see, But
Speaker 1: I think there's some developmental things there that you can
Speaker 1: do to help him in his particular role. He would
Speaker 1: be a guy that I would think would be a
Speaker 1: developmental spot right there that you could bring somebody along
Speaker 1: who played in a big college program system and be
Speaker 1: a value there. And later on in the draft I
Speaker 1: mentioned McTelvin, a gene from Arkansas. He's a developmental D
Speaker 1: lineman had a lot of groom to grow for him
Speaker 1: in this position because he played outside in twenty eighteen,
Speaker 1: moved to inside on that D line last year in
Speaker 1: Arkansas's defense, so he's still got some upside and learning there.
Speaker 1: And then the data's twins from Nebraska, Khalil and Carlos
Speaker 1: both ran two of the three fastest times for D
Speaker 1: lineman at this year's combines, so there's some explosion and
Speaker 1: speed there. Justin Mattabuque would be the guy who ran
Speaker 1: the fastest from A and M, but they're both blue
Speaker 1: collar guys from a big time program in Nebraska. And
Speaker 1: both are developmental but might have some upside to them
Speaker 1: because they have some explosion and power. Now, Coach Mac,
Speaker 1: give me a player two that may have really caught
Speaker 1: your eye, someone that maybe Titans fans should make sure
Speaker 1: that they're aware of and keep their eyes on. Well
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to talk about later on.
Speaker 1: And again, as I said, we've we've gone pretty deep
Speaker 1: into these defensive tackles. Amy, You've made us dig pretty deep,
Speaker 1: which is good. You're doing your job. No, that's a
Speaker 1: good thing. I mean, this is like we are having
Speaker 1: our own personal draft meetings right now. That's what we're doing.
Speaker 1: Amy Wells is John Robinson and she is quizzing her
Speaker 1: road scouts Coach Mack and Rhet Bryan. So she's doing
Speaker 1: a great job of this. How about Rochard Lawrence at
Speaker 1: LSU six two and a half, three hundred and eleven pounds,
Speaker 1: he's down the line. He's a down the line guy.
Speaker 1: We've already mentioned Chauncey Rivers from Mississippi State. There's a
Speaker 1: guy at Old miss named Josiah Cotney that's sixty three,
Speaker 1: three hundred and eleven pounds. None of these guys are
Speaker 1: ready made players, but they are guys that have played
Speaker 1: at you at big universities, and they've played at a
Speaker 1: fairly high level. And so again, look when people start
Speaker 1: being drafted, and we've all experienced the draft, and so
Speaker 1: have our OTP listeners, those names start coming off the
Speaker 1: board really really quick. So that's why. And again, as
Speaker 1: I said, Amy Wells, you're doing a good job as
Speaker 1: John Robinson taking us deep into the people we've looked
Speaker 1: at to try to get at least names out there
Speaker 1: if it comes up that you need a defensive linement
Speaker 1: on the third day. I've always considered myself the general
Speaker 1: manager of this podcast just overall. So and so this
Speaker 1: is perfect where les quite well rhet what about you.
Speaker 1: Do you have any guys that people should be watching?
Speaker 1: You know, there is a couple of names, uh, and
Speaker 1: he hits some that I was thinking about. But James
Speaker 1: Lynch from Baylor is a guy in this who's six four,
Speaker 1: two eighty five and a smart football IQ guy doesn't
Speaker 1: have all of the athletic measurables that you'd like, but
Speaker 1: I think he has the experience and he's played in
Speaker 1: some different spots. He'd be somebody I would have paid
Speaker 1: attention to. H and I'll tell you one that is
Speaker 1: a developmental guy that is getting some folks attention is
Speaker 1: Bravy on Roy from Baylor. He's not prototypical size for
Speaker 1: a nose tackle, he's six one three twenty, but he
Speaker 1: has a really good first step and he's very athletic.
Speaker 1: I think he's a guy that if somebody was looking
Speaker 1: at a late Day three pick might take a flyer
Speaker 1: on somebody like that to develop, maybe on their taxi
Speaker 1: squad or even you know, trying to put into busting
Speaker 1: the roster if he does well. Now let's bring this
Speaker 1: into context a little bit. Let's talk about the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1: How has free agency and some of the moves have
Speaker 1: reportedly been made. How is that going to impact the
Speaker 1: way that the Tennessee Titans approach this specific position in
Speaker 1: the upcoming draft. Mac, I'll start with you, okay, I
Speaker 1: mean it's going to because you've seen already. I mean,
Speaker 1: and as you said, reportedly, that's what we have to
Speaker 1: say right now. You know, reportedly, you know they're they're
Speaker 1: getting depth players right now on the on the interior.
Speaker 1: That's what they're that's what they're going with. Of course,
Speaker 1: clearly with Jarell Casey no longer being in there. With
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Simmons moving up into into a lead role, de
Speaker 1: Kwon Jones is still there. You know now they're now
Speaker 1: they're adding depth players. But here's here's what you do.
Speaker 1: Just like Jeffrey Simmons was drafted when Jarell Casey was
Speaker 1: still here, you still have to be able to fortify
Speaker 1: your defensive from with players that you're looking at long
Speaker 1: term issues on, you're looking at long term processes with,
Speaker 1: and so it will impact it some, but I still
Speaker 1: believe that they will go after one or two interior
Speaker 1: defensive lineman. You know in this in this not only
Speaker 1: this draft, but when I talk about draft, I'm talking
Speaker 1: about the entire draft process, because you know, we're there's
Speaker 1: a big list of these guys that were at the
Speaker 1: combine that I sat and watched a lot of names
Speaker 1: we haven't even mentioned right now that that will be
Speaker 1: free agents that you will be able to go and get.
Speaker 1: You know, the Titans are sitting there right now with
Speaker 1: three seventh round picks. When you've got three seventh round picks,
Speaker 1: once you start looking at your board horizontally and deciding
Speaker 1: that if this group is deeper than the rest of them.
Speaker 1: Towards the end of the draft, we might load up
Speaker 1: with a couple of them. And so, look, you can
Speaker 1: never have too many big men. You really cannot, because
Speaker 1: you need you need big men not only in training camp,
Speaker 1: but during the course of the season. We've all experienced
Speaker 1: and have seen because of the constant physical banging that
Speaker 1: these guys do, I mean they can are consistently. Your
Speaker 1: rate of a chance for injury, either short term or
Speaker 1: longer term is pretty high because that's that's a physical
Speaker 1: contact position, both on the offensive and the defensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball continuously, and so you've got to have bodies.
Speaker 1: And it's not just Jurrell Casey in this too, because
Speaker 1: it's also been reported that Austin Johnson, the former second
Speaker 1: round pick in twenty sixteen, is now a New York Giant.
Speaker 1: Of course, he's a New Jersey native, and it's reported
Speaker 1: that he is gone and is now playing in the NFC.
Speaker 1: So if you've got a couple of bodies gone in
Speaker 1: this whole equation, then it does create a hole in
Speaker 1: a need in things. And I'm looking through the list
Speaker 1: of free agent interior defensive lineman. They're still left and
Speaker 1: nothing jumps off the page. But you know, John Robinson
Speaker 1: always keeps notebooks like coach Mack does in terms of
Speaker 1: looking at guys that he's previously vetted in previous drafts
Speaker 1: and what kind of works best for what they're doing.
Speaker 1: And Mike Gravel's defense in this whole thing, I certainly
Speaker 1: think that it'll be a focus in this draft because
Speaker 1: you're going to need to replace some things, and your
Speaker 1: coach Max said the best you've got to have big
Speaker 1: men up front. You have to. Now I want to
Speaker 1: hear from both of you on this. In your opinion,
Speaker 1: is defensive line one of the most important positions for
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans to address in the twenty twenty offseason.
Speaker 1: Go Mac all right, I'll go to me. No, And look,
Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a it's a pertinent question. But
Speaker 1: to me, when you start talking about most important, let's
Speaker 1: talk about the game of football just for a minute,
Speaker 1: real quick. The game of football is probably one of
Speaker 1: the most unique sports that's played because you've got all
Speaker 1: different body types playing all different types of positions and
Speaker 1: they all have to interconnect with one another. So really,
Speaker 1: to say one is more important than the other. You
Speaker 1: can't say that what you hand say is at the
Speaker 1: particular time with your particular team. Are your needs a
Speaker 1: little bit greater at one position than they are at
Speaker 1: the other? I will I will answer this question this way.
Speaker 1: When I was making picks, I always wanted to be
Speaker 1: sure that I had big men on both sides of
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage that could that could do some things.
Speaker 1: If you want to talk about most important position, the
Speaker 1: most important position on any National Football League team is
Speaker 1: the quarterback because without that, regardless of these other people,
Speaker 1: are these other positions that we talk about. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm getting ready to say, Amy, and you do too, Rett.
Speaker 1: All you've got is a highly paid rugby team. But
Speaker 1: after you have your quarterback in position, then you start
Speaker 1: to layer your team with what you have on hand
Speaker 1: and what you think you can get. Look, defensive line
Speaker 1: to me is just as important as offensive lineman. It's
Speaker 1: just as important as cornerbacks right now, It's just as important,
Speaker 1: as as as getting as getting backup. Running backs is
Speaker 1: just as important because of sub packages of being able
Speaker 1: to supplement your receiver position. That's the way I'm going
Speaker 1: to answer that. Well, Max, that might have been the
Speaker 1: coachiest coaches answer I've ever heard in my whole life. Well,
Speaker 1: I must coach speak talk to bottom. I like it,
Speaker 1: and that's only a Rhett. What are your thoughts? Well,
Speaker 1: I'm not a coach, never have been, don't play one
Speaker 1: on the radio. And I'll say this currently as we're
Speaker 1: sitting here with this OTP, with the things that have
Speaker 1: been reported that they've lost or gained in terms of
Speaker 1: the Titans organization, certainly d line is a concern and
Speaker 1: a level of importance. Don't know that it is the
Speaker 1: most important, but it's up there, and he, you know,
Speaker 1: coach Matt glossed over a couple of the others. I've
Speaker 1: contend that hornerback is just as important, and right tackle
Speaker 1: for depth and future strength is important to go along
Speaker 1: with interior defensive line. And whether you have drafted a
Speaker 1: backup running back or you find a veteran or whatever.
Speaker 1: Those are some things and three or four things that
Speaker 1: I think are important to the Titans as we sit
Speaker 1: here the low three weeks away from the draft. All right, well, guys,
Speaker 1: it is always so good to talk to you. There's
Speaker 1: always lots to discuss, and we will continue with these
Speaker 1: because there are more positions to talk about and Rett.
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, the draft is roughly three weeks away,
Speaker 1: so coach Mac, Dave McGinnis, Rett Brian, thank you so
Speaker 1: much for being here. Well appreciate it as always. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks Amy, Thanks Ritt all right for coach Mac and
Speaker 1: Rett Brian. I'm Emmy Wells and this has been BOTP
