1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. Everybody. 2 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: What's going on? DJ, Bucky here, moved the sticks and 3 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: we have a big answer pod today. You put out 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: the hashtag ask mts hit us up with any questions 5 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,319 Speaker 1: that you have, and uh, we're gonna roll through those 6 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: today and answer those questions. But before we get there, Buck, 7 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: how you doing, man? Man, I'm great. DJ can't complain. 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: I love this part of the process. Like we're a 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: couple of weeks away from the combine, and you know, 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: the combine is kind of like the kickoff point in 11 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: terms of when everyone begins to kind of figure out 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: what their team is going to do. And the draft 13 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,519 Speaker 1: and obviously the subculture of like drafting, speculation, mock drafting 14 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: that is kind of really I mean, grown tinfold since 15 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: I got in this in two thousand and seven. But 16 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: it's it's bananas. But it's the best part. It's the 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: best part of year for anybody who's a scout. Yeah, 18 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,279 Speaker 1: and for those that think that, uh that that you're 19 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: the only ones out there to pay attention to mock drafts, 20 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: trust me to He was keeping eye on it too. Um. 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: I had a chance to go out watch the guys 22 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: work out yesterday, and Christian Kirk was one of those 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: guys and he had mentioned he knew he knew who 24 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: we had the Arizona Cardinals taken in the mock draft. 25 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,559 Speaker 1: So the players keep up with this stuff as well, 26 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: anxious to find out who their teammates are gonna be. UM. 27 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: So it is fun. I know, I know the mock drafts, 28 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: especially this early in the process, not going to be 29 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: the most accurate buck, but it's a it's a good 30 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: talking point and people are interested as we kind of 31 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: uh geared towards what I believe, by far is the 32 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: best offseason of any of the major sports in football. Yeah, 33 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: I think the NFL has done a great job of 34 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: making uh football of the NFL relevant three six, twelve 35 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: months a year. There's always something could jump off point 36 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: where we can bring the NFL back to focus. And 37 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: you know, going into the combine being able to just 38 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 1: kind of speculate on which players are going to be where, 39 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: combined with free agency at that time, it's just a 40 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: really really good time. And so even though we're not 41 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: watching games necessarily, but the NFL on the field, the 42 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: speculation about how he could look or how it will 43 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: look when they do return to the field always kind 44 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: of drives our industry. And one more thing here before 45 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: we get to these questions I mentioned. I was watching 46 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 1: some guys work out, one of which was Joe Burrow 47 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: who's working out throwing with Josh Allen, Sam Donald, Kyle 48 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: Allen from the Panthers out there, all those guys out 49 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: at Jay Sarah High School. Uh, what's Saint Clementi right buck? Yeah, 50 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: throwing the ball around. So it's fun to watch them 51 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: go out there and work. Yeah, Saint Clementi High School? Um, 52 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: which is where. That's a beautiful school, bro, I mean 53 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 1: that Yeah, is that Scott? That's Scott Boris money. That's 54 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: that sweet sweet Scott Morris money there. So it's funny. 55 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: They've always gone by the Monica down there. One town, 56 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: one team, Uh, one team, one town or however they 57 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: reference it, because it is kind of a beachy town 58 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: away from it. Everything is right there, and they've had 59 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: a tremendous amount of success the last few years. They've 60 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: had quarterbacks come out of there. Uh, Sam Donald, I 61 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: want to say Jack Sears maybe, uh from Saint Clementi 62 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: High School? Right this was over. This was uh, this 63 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: was Jay Sarah. Oh you're Jay Sarah. My back, Um, 64 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: Jay Sara is also you could your rest high school. 65 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: Now that's a money high school. Gosh, Buck, Yeah, I 66 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: think Pat Harlow. I think Pat Harlow is to hit 67 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: coach at ye usc Alum. He's done a really good 68 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: job of bringing it up. But if you can imagine, 69 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: I know I Southern ko listeners will know this. They 70 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: compete in the Trinity League, and so the Trinity League St. 71 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: John's Bosco surveyed, uh Orange Lutheran moder day Jay, say, 72 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: Santa Margarita, I mean you're talking about like some heavy hitters. 73 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's the high school version of the SEC. 74 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 1: And so they are a team that is always kind 75 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: of competing and trying to climb the wrong But look, man, 76 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: a lot of talent down there in Orange County, a 77 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of good players, a lot of 78 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: good coaches. I'll have a chance during it there in 79 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: the combine coverage kind of going to a little deeper 80 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: detail on my conversation with Joe Burrow and visiting with him. 81 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: But one thing I want to share here for for 82 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: you and for art listeners. Buck the question and he 83 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: knows it. I said, the question you're gonna get asked 84 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: when you go to the Combine more than any other 85 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: is why the drastic jump from one year to the next. 86 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: And I feel like we jumped into this topic a 87 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: few weeks back and it very much lined up with 88 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: kind of what our theory was on that book. And 89 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: he said, look, so a lot of times he's grad transfers. 90 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: They arrive in the spring, have spring ball, then they 91 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: go through summer camp, and then they go out there 92 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: and play He's he said, I got to l s 93 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: U after the freshman had already reported in the fall, 94 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 1: So I mean he literally got there at the start 95 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: of camp. That's the first time he gets a playbook. 96 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: Then then you know, we started talking about offense and 97 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: scheme and fit um and right away he gets in 98 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: there competes for that job. But he said, uh, you know, 99 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: look what his game is, and we saw it this 100 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: year just explode. You know, they were a lot of 101 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: seven man protection his first year there at l s U. 102 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: So you get into a new system keeping everybody in. 103 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: You don't have options out in the route. You've got 104 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: no room because everything's just clogged in the middle of 105 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: the field, and he said, you go this, this new 106 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: offense comes in, he gets a chance to master it, 107 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: he gets a chance to get really comfortable with it. 108 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: And then they realize, you know, talking to him like 109 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: one of his greatest strength as his vision, And so 110 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: give me more options, get get let's get people out. 111 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: Let's go five man protection. Let's empty this thing out 112 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: and then let me see you play with the tight 113 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 1: end out there. But let's get everybody out in the route. 114 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: Because he can feel pressure, he's athletic, he's got tremendous vision, 115 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: and he can find answers to the test. And so 116 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: then you just had a perfect situation of that matching 117 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: what he does extremely well. So to me it you 118 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: know you've talked about it before, Buck that you don't 119 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: just drop him into any system and he's gonna explode 120 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: and do great. You've got to build around what he does, 121 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: which I think is true for most guys. But I 122 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: just think with him, if you can draft him, you're 123 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: not gonna be a heavy play action team. You're not 124 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: gonna be you know, six seven man protection at all times. 125 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: You're gonna be in the gun. You're gonna spread people 126 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: out and you're gonna let him dissect people and then 127 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: when you want to rush three, now he can sit 128 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: back there and take all day if he wants, or 129 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to find lanes with his athleticism. 130 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: He's gonna go take those yards with his legs. So 131 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of a pick your poison situation. But I 132 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: think if you can, if you can put in place 133 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: what he's proven he is elite at and comfortable at 134 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: in that system, I mean, I think this guy is 135 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: a limit for what this kid can be at the 136 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,119 Speaker 1: next level. Yeah, I think this guy is the limit. 137 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: And I think as we continue to UM, look at 138 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow and look at the way young quarterbacks have 139 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: been able to have immediate success, it has been coaches 140 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: willing to take them where they are and built around 141 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: where they are as they continue to add other elements 142 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: to the offensive playbook. UM. I mean, we we've seen this, 143 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: like Lamar Jackson was then m v P because they 144 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: revamped their entire offensive system to enable him to be 145 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: able to play, UM was in a way that is 146 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: very very comfortable to him. If we look at Pat Mahomes, Uh, 147 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes red shirted for a year. But part of 148 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: the red shirt year was enabling Andy Reid to look 149 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: at Pat Mahomes strengths and weaknesses and build and tweak 150 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: an offensive system around how he plays. Um. I think 151 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: the the old way of looking at quarterbacks like, hey, 152 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: we gotta get him in, we gotta teach him how 153 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: to play the pro way. Yeah, that don't have enough 154 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: time for that because the clock is running immediately. When 155 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: you draft a young quarterback high that you have a 156 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: five year window to get to the super Bowl and 157 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: win it before it becomes a different situation where the 158 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: team has to flip because now you're gonna pay the 159 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: quarterback a lot of money and you're not going to 160 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,559 Speaker 1: be able to build it the other way. The best 161 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: way to do it is to take the quarterback, build 162 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: the system around him, supplement him with the pieces that 163 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: he needs early, and then you hope by year five 164 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: he is able to kind of carry it forward, and 165 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: then you can lose some of the other stuff that 166 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: you're paying out because now more than money has to 167 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: go to him. I want to I want to give 168 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: you a couple of numbers here, but because I think this, 169 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: I looked this up and it really surprised me. So, 170 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: and we've theorized here before about the importance. You know, 171 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: we're seeing some of these are raid quarterbacks be successful. 172 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: And one of the things we've talked about is, look, 173 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: they get to throw the ball a lot, so they 174 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: get a lot of those reps which are gonna help 175 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: you at the next level. So you go back through 176 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: and we you know, we talked about Pat mahomes um 177 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: ma homes through nine times in college. Right. I went 178 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: through and looked through all the quarterbacks in the top 179 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: fifteen in the league buck and and just used I 180 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: just used passer rating, right, and so I'm just gonna 181 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: run through the number of past attempts that they had. 182 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: So actually, you know what, I'll give you the guys 183 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: that were under a thousand. So Tannehill was seven seventy four, 184 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: you know, Breeze six way up there. Everybody, all these 185 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: guys over uh Stafford was on um Aaron Rodgers was 186 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: one of the lowest, six sixty five, you know, because 187 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: he's only at Caldar. These are career pass attempts. And 188 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: then WinCE was six twelve obviously for the injuries, but 189 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: everybody else from you know, Breeze Lamar Jackson, Cousins, Wilson, Stafford, Mahomes, 190 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: Car Dak Watson, uh Matt Ryan, all those guys over 191 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: a thousand. You know, a lot of a lot of 192 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: passing attempts in college. So I went through and pulled 193 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: out the top five guys from this year's group. You know, 194 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: we've got Borrow to uh Herbert Love Easton From and 195 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: this is just don't know why this struck me, but 196 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: Jake From feels like he's been at Georgia for a 197 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: hundred years, right, Jake, Jake From had nine hundred and 198 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: eighty three pass attempts. Joe Burrow had nine hundred and 199 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: forty five. Like it because it doesn't it feel like 200 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow was kind of the one year guy, like 201 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: not a lot of he threw the ball in the 202 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 1: touchdowns from through seventy eight touchdowns eighteen picks. Burrow seventy 203 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns, eleven picks. How about this one buck to 204 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: a six hundred and eighty four pass attempts in college? 205 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: Would you believe that that that Burrow has almost three 206 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: hundred more pass attempts than two in their college career. 207 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: That shocked me when I saw that you know it 208 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: is shocking, and I think eight seven touchdowns eleven picks, 209 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean wow, like you talk about, 210 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: I mean that's a third more throws um that you 211 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: basically we're talking about. Like, I mean, it was weird 212 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: to me. I don't know why why that just shocked 213 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: me because we feel like we've been to of forever. 214 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: I guess is what it is. But yeah, I mean, look, 215 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: as as much as I can talk about uh two 216 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: in Champion of Flag, he really is also just kind 217 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: of like a real one year starter. Like when you 218 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: add up all of his things, it's a little over 219 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: one year of real game experience. Uh. Joe Burrow has 220 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: two years of starts. Uh. We can talking about him 221 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: being a bit of a one year one based on 222 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: the season that he just had, but give him credit 223 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: for being able to do it. I think a couple 224 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: of things with Joe Burrow. One, Joe Burrow is older 225 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: and experience. Like you talk about the throws, Uh, that 226 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: age and maturity should help him when we talk about 227 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: transitioning into the league, um, the system stuff that you 228 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: talked about, Like with him, I wrote down in my 229 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: notes when I was breaking them down, I said, man, 230 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: this dude is an r P O master. Um The 231 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: way that he is able to just quickly decipher and 232 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: get the ball in and out like that works well. 233 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: And for years we've seen Tom Brady and Drew Brees 234 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: pick people apart. Aaron Rodgers pick people apart because they're 235 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: mad is of the quick game, and I know that 236 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: a lot of times we'll talk about arm strength, and 237 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: even I'm guilty of this too. We talked about arms 238 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: strength and be able to push the ball down the field. 239 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: But when you really look at it, the top quarterbacks, 240 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: the top pocket quarterbacks, have been guys that have been 241 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: masters of the ten yard and underthrow. They're so accurate, 242 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: so decisive, so quick. They understand how to stretch the 243 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: defense horizontally, and their quick decisions enable them to really 244 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: pick up part of defense before they can get ready. 245 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: So as we continue to dig into the Joe Burrow thing, 246 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: I think that works. And I think something that we've 247 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: talked to other people about. We talked to Clay Hilton. Well, 248 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: yesterday I was on the phone with an NFL defensive 249 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,559 Speaker 1: coordinator and he talked about um man. I I I 250 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: proposed the theory that you said, like having defensive guys 251 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: evaluate offensive talent. He's like, oh, that's a great idea. 252 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: He said, like, look, if I'm a dB coach, I 253 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: know exactly what gives us problems at why receiver? He 254 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: said the same thing with quarterback. And the number one 255 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: thing that he said, when you look at quarterbacks as 256 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: you can they see it? Can they spot it? He said, Look, 257 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: I played basketball and playing point guard, it's very similar 258 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: to playing quarterback. You have to anticipate where guys are 259 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: going down the wings and those things. And so it 260 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: just kind of tied in a lot of the theories 261 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: and premises that we've talked about with quarterback and why 262 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: your quarterback has to have certain traits and the fact 263 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: that Joe Burrow was an All State basketball player, I 264 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: think it kind of correlates to how he plays the 265 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: position from the pocket. I asked him that too. I said, 266 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, how do you think your basketball has helped you? 267 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: And he's like, no, I think there is something to that, 268 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: and he said more than anything else. He kind of 269 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: echoed what Urban Meyers said, which was just I just 270 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: think you do a disservice to yourself when you're just 271 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: playing one sport, you know, you get a chance to 272 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: compete year round. He just he's a competition junkie. He 273 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: just wants to be out there and compete. UM. But 274 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: when it comes to the vision thing, that was one 275 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: of the things he also mentioned just talking about his strength. 276 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: He's like, look, even if we're if we're trying to 277 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: work right or left, he has He's like, I can 278 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: kind of take a picture in my in my mind 279 00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: and kind of see the whole field. And we had 280 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: a we had quarterback coach and I remember which one 281 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: it was when I was coming up Buck that you said, 282 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: you got as a quarterback, you gotta be able to 283 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: stand on the front porch and see all the way 284 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: around the house. Let's I always think about that, like, 285 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: that's your vision to be able to see everything, And 286 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: that is a that this unique man. That is a 287 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: big time skill to be able to see everything at 288 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: once and not have to work from sections of the field. Yeah, 289 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: I think basketball does that. And and DJ was funny 290 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: because when we look at um the top quarterbacks, a 291 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: lot of those guys are dual threat players but also 292 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: had multi sport backgrounds. In as much as we talk 293 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: about basketball in the vision, I think vision is also 294 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: necessary in baseball in terms of if you play middle 295 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: infield and turning to and field and anticipation and all 296 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: those other things. We can talk about Pat Mahomes, arm 297 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: angles and all of that, but also just imagine like 298 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: having to throw around base runners coming at you, trying 299 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: to turn to and all of that other stuff. Because 300 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson play second base and played in the infield, 301 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: all of those things matter. And so look, we're at 302 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: a weird time in U sports where we have so 303 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: many coaches selfishly trying to get guys to play one 304 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: spoort and specialize. When we're seeing and the evidence not 305 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: only statistically but visually when we look at the top players, 306 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: the top players have played other sports because it allows 307 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: you to build other skills, no doubt, and we'll move 308 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: on here. I do want to finish up this the 309 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: numbers here just because I know some people probably listening 310 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: wondering about the other guys. Herbert pass attempts love eleven 311 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: east and seven eighty two, um, so that that's kind 312 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: of where those guys are with with the amount of 313 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: reps and attempts that they've got. The other thing I 314 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: would add on Burrow mentioning you know that first year 315 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: and I mentioned getting there too late, um in an 316 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: offense that doesn't necessarily, you know, ideally suit him. The 317 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: other thing, he was like, look, I haven't really played 318 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: in three years. You know, like this, you gotta knock 319 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: some of that rustoff now we have played so UM 320 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: it was it was interesting. It was a good conversation. 321 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: He is I'll say this about him. Biggest takeaway from it, 322 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: he is he is highly intelligent, highly confident, and sometimes 323 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: when you get that combination buck, it can rub people 324 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: the wrong way. It is not with this kid at all. 325 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: Like it's very authentic, it's very real. I think the 326 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: words swagger is kind of thrown around and maybe overused. 327 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: Buck that dude has. He is dripping with swagger. He 328 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: has got so much confidence. Man. Um it's so I enjoyed. 329 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: I enjoyed busiting with no It's funny. So DJ, here 330 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: here's what you know from playing the position. Um. The 331 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: quarterback position requires a lot of different things. We can 332 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: talk about the physical talent, we can talk about the intellect. Um, 333 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: we can talk about the leadership ability. The other thing 334 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: that I believe is important. The best ones they have 335 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: a relatability and so the high i Q and confidence 336 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: in the real swag that you allude to that brings 337 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: people in towards you. So I'm a big believer in 338 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: going to games and watching how people react to the quarterback. 339 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: And every time I watched L s U play, I 340 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: felt like the L YOU players were genuinely happy for 341 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: the success that Joe Burrow had. And I think we've 342 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: been around the game enough to know that we've seen 343 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who have put up big numbers and have had 344 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: a lot of individual accolades, and when they go get 345 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: the award, the rest of the team is on the 346 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: other side of the field because they don't really care 347 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: about him. Every time we saw Joe Burrow do something 348 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: that was another notable accomplishment, I felt like the entire 349 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: squad was there. And so that swagger that you talk 350 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: about um him projecting, I think his real is genuine 351 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: and I think it's one of those things that in 352 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: a locker room works really really well. Much like and 353 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: I'll say this like much like Baker Mayfield kind of 354 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: had that as well. Um, there's something to your quarterback 355 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: being the pod piper. Uh. That is kind of one 356 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: of those unknown quantities that you're looking for. But you 357 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: have to have him because it really shows up when 358 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: you get kind of down to the nitty gritty, No doubt. 359 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: All that was fun, man. I was glad we got 360 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: to get into that discussion there. As we launched into 361 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: these questions. All right, we put out the hashtag hashtag 362 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 1: ask mts you guys dropped questions. We can keep that 363 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: going to if you have other questions along the line 364 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: and drop them on that hashtag. Now, Bill is going 365 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: to collect these as we go through the spring, and 366 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: we'll have a little segments throughout the pod. Um before 367 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: we get to the draft, we will drop some of 368 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: these in. Uh So, now Bill, we uh how many 369 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: questions do we end up coming up with here? And 370 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: to be all out of this pile? Oh, we got 371 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: a bunch of them, but I narrowed it down to 372 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: fift alright, okay, fifteen questions, buck, So we've we've got 373 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 1: the list here. Um, let's go, let's go every other one. 374 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 1: All right. Um, I'll start off here, hit you up 375 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: with this one. Assuming a j Green returns to the 376 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: Bengals and with the healthy old line, would Joe Burrow 377 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: be walking to the most talent rich offensive situation a 378 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: number one pick has had in recent memory. That's from 379 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: at d lb n O the most talent rich. I 380 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: don't know if it's the most talent rich situation. UM. 381 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: I felt like Andrew Luck walking to a decent situation 382 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: because he hit give me my answer and whatever what 383 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: we gonna say. So I went back and I cheated. 384 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: I looked at this question. So I went back and 385 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 1: I looked up some of these and I'll be darn 386 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: buck like because yeah, because Luck had I think t 387 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: Y came in in his class. Offensive line was not good. 388 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: They didn't have a big time back. Um, so that 389 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: one wasn't great. I went through all these guys, I 390 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 1: came down and I thought, you know, it is one 391 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: of the best. The one that I would put above 392 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: it is Cam Newton. Cam Newton went to Carolina with 393 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: Steve Smith. You had, you had Ryan Khalil was an 394 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: All Pro center at that time. You still had Jordan Gross, 395 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: you had D'Angelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart in the backfield. 396 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: Like that's a lot. You get a lot of dudes there. 397 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 1: I think I think la Fell might have been their 398 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 1: second receiver. Okay, but I mean, Steve Smith's a Hall 399 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: of Fame player. Um, you've got two Pro Bowl caliber 400 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: backs and you've got two Pro Bowl caliber lineman. That 401 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: was a pretty good set up there for Cam that 402 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 1: is a pretty good set up. But I will say 403 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,479 Speaker 1: this about the Cincinnati Bengals, Um, when you look at 404 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: this situation on on paper, and I know they've been 405 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: rumors in conversation about Joe Burrow not wanting to go 406 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: to Cincinnati. However, when we talk about Joe Burrow and 407 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: what he would probably need around him, man, Joe Mixing 408 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: is a Pro Bowl caliber running back. Uh, A J. 409 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: Green and Tyler Boyd. That's a nice combination at why 410 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: receiver if they resigned A J. Green and Tyler Boyd 411 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: is a nice number two. The only question that I 412 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: would have two questions that I have about Cincinnati in 413 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: terms of Joe Burrow, UM, the offensive line, I'm not 414 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 1: fully confident in the offensive line, being kind of like 415 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: an upper echelon offensive line. And then the second thing 416 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: would be what can Zach Taylor do in his second 417 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: season as a head coach? Is he better equipped to 418 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,959 Speaker 1: call an offense and to build a team around a 419 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: young quarterback like Joe Burrow. My question would just sent 420 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: around the offensive line and coaching. But from a personnel standpoint, 421 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: I've certainly seen number one picks and inherit worst situations 422 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: fall into worst situations. This this isn't a bad situation 423 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: for him to fall into. No, I agree with you. 424 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: All right, what's the next question? Here? Here we go? 425 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: What in European is the most challenging part of scouting? 426 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: What is the most enjoyable man? This is? Uh, this 427 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: is interesting? Can simplify this? The most challenging thing is 428 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: figuring out the kid, right and then the heart. The 429 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: most enjoyable thing for me is watching the tape. That's 430 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: my simple answer to that one. That's funny. So my 431 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: my my thing was the challenging part was the projection 432 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: as it comes from college to the pros, because it's 433 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: really an apple's to oranges evaluation. You're watching uh kids 434 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 1: play against kids, whereas when they go into the National 435 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: Football League, they're playing against some of the best men 436 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: that you will find, and sometimes you just don't know 437 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: how they're going to project when they get out of 438 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: their comfort zone in college scheme, uh, environment, uh, money, 439 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 1: all those other things. And so that is the toughest 440 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 1: thing to projection part. The most enjoyable part is when 441 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 1: you're part of a team. Is being a part of 442 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: a team that goes on and has success at a 443 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: high level, meaning winning playoff games, winning division titles, being 444 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 1: able to win a Super Bowl. I think they would 445 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: be the most enjoyable part because as a scout is different. 446 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: Your report card comes later. Your report card is down 447 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: the line, three or four years down the line. Whereas coaches, 448 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: they get evaluated each week. A we either passed or 449 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: failed the class on Sunday, scouts and evaluate it. It's 450 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: a little longer. So yeah, the challenging part is seeing 451 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: how it all plays out down the road. Yeah, I 452 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: think you said that beautifully. When I I'll just to 453 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: summarize what I was saying, just trying to figure out 454 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: I think watching the tape and watching the players, that's 455 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: gotten to the point where it's not too difficult to 456 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: figure out who can play, But then what makes these 457 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: guys tick? What's their character like, especially on the outside 458 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: when you're not with a team. That's a hard part 459 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: for us. Um So that's kind of I would break 460 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 1: that down, all right. The next question what QB evaluation 461 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: have you been the most wrong about is that? Uh? 462 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: Is that player? Uh? Was that player much better than 463 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: you're great at the NFL level? And what did that 464 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: teach you? And I that's a question from at Brandon 465 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 1: Dower and Brandon, that's that's a question. Look, we can 466 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: go through and find tons of them. Buck Uh. I 467 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: would say, you're always trying to learn lessons on guys 468 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: you get right or guys you get wrong. That's why 469 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: we do the hits and mrs um. But I feel 470 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 1: like two guys, you know, Patrick mahomes Um. I know 471 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: I mentioned that he's you know, was a boomer bust 472 00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 1: high ceiling, low floor. Obviously he's hit the ceiling. So um. 473 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: In some ways, I feel like, Okay, I knew he 474 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: had this capabilities. I bet on the under. I should 475 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: have been on the over. And I think the lesson 476 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: that I took from that was, Man, we got to 477 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: talk to him that late in the process, and we're 478 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: still impressed with him with his intelligence, his recall, his leadership, personality, 479 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: his whole everything about him being around him. Um was, Man, 480 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: you gotta find a way to get some time with 481 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: these kids earlier on in the process. That was my 482 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: lesson with Mahomes and then Russell Wilson, who's one that 483 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: I loved as a player buck, but I I still 484 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: put a ceiling on him in terms of where to 485 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: put the grade because of his height. And I think 486 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: we've seen the rest of the league kind of learned 487 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: that lesson collectively. Yeah, it's funny. Um Pat ma Holmes 488 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: is the one for me. Um. Pat Mahomes is a 489 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: guy that I struggled with in the evaluation part of it. 490 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: Like I struggled Um with trying to figure out what 491 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: he could be at the next level, because I've never 492 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: seen this kind of thing before. I've never seen a 493 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: player who played the way that he played at Texas 494 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: Tech and have sustainable success. This meaning he was a 495 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: sandllite player at Texas Tech. He had to do a 496 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: lot um Obviously, we mentioned the number of throws that 497 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: he had. He didn't have a lot of high end 498 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: or NFL talent, and so I just worried about the 499 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: bad habits that maybe he formed at Texas Tech trying 500 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: to make these plays, because we would see these improbable 501 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: throws where he's rolling left, throwing back right, all the 502 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: things that coaches till young quarterbacks not to do, and 503 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: we saw him kind of living on the edge, and 504 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: I just wondered if any coach in the pros would 505 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: be able to kind of reel him back in. Um. 506 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: The talent was there, the other stuff was there, but 507 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: still at the time when he came out, we hadn't 508 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: seen a lot of success from air A quarterbacks, and 509 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: so because of that look, I downgraded him. I downgraded 510 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: him because of the the I would call it frenetic 511 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: style and the lack of track record for aver A quarterbacks, 512 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: and so it kind of left me to leave him. 513 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a projected second round guy based 514 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: on how I thought he would play, and he surpassed 515 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 1: all of that, and you're right late in the process, 516 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: we got a chance to sit with him on this podcast. 517 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: He's that right here in the studio and we talked 518 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: to him, and when he walked out the door, we said, oh, man, 519 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: I wish we had talked to him earlier before we 520 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: did theft, before we did the top five, because he 521 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: was smart. He had tremendous recall. I remember you asking 522 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: him a question about a play maybe against Kansas State, 523 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: and he was able to dial it up precisely. And 524 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: so the great quarterbacks, the great players, they live and 525 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: breathe it. That interaction that we had with Pat mahomes here, 526 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: I was like, man, this dude kind of he kind 527 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: of lives it. He kind of breathes it like he 528 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: he kind of has that it. So Pat mahomes to 529 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: me is the evaluation that I got wrong and that 530 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: I really learned a lot from Yeah, and I think 531 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: that another way I would say less than I tried 532 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: to take from that was if you have guys that 533 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: are quote unquote kind of a boom or bust. A 534 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: lot of times that comes down to the kid, like 535 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: what makes him tick, How motivated is he, how passionate 536 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: is he. He might not be where he is where 537 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: he needs to be right now, but if he's got 538 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: that upside. To me, gamble the guys. You want to 539 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: gamble on the guys with upside that have all the intangibles. 540 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: So if you've got the upside and the intangibles, lesson 541 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: learn on my end, Like, Okay, go in on those guys. 542 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: Don't don't worry about it. Take your shot. Yeah, it's 543 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: it's um, it's something to be learned. Like he he 544 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: just is a guy that that makes a ton of plays. Uh, 545 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: and you just didn't know. And I think that is 546 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: why we always talk about like get to know the kid, 547 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of it is bet on 548 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: the kid, bet on the character of the kid. Here 549 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: we go. Uh. The fourth we got question? The fourth question, 550 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: which team should move up in the first round of 551 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: the draft? And for who that's at? Mr jackal Man, 552 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: this is an interesting question. I think you think. I 553 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: think moving up in the first round. I think it's 554 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: about having currency and having a player that you want 555 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: to target. UM. The two teams that I think have 556 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: the currency in the first round, the Miami Dolphins and 557 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. UM. And when you move up, you're 558 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: moving up to target a blue chip player. I think 559 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: if you're the Miami Dolphins, and depending on how this 560 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: quarterback thing shakes out, Joe Burrow to a talk about 561 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: loa either one, I think you move up to ensure 562 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: that you get one of those quarterbacks. If you feel 563 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 1: like those two guys are separated apart from other guys, 564 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: I think you have to make the move to get 565 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: the franchise quarterback of your choice. So I'm the Miami Dolphins, 566 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: I'll target one of those quarterbacks. Assuming Joe Burrow goes, 567 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: then I'm moving up to get to the number two 568 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: position to make sure that I can get to them. Yeah, 569 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: I like that. I throw the chargers in there too. 570 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: I think there, you know there's some urgency. They're going 571 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: into new building. Philip Rivers has moved on to be 572 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: able to find your quarterback. Now, they don't have all 573 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: those extra picks, but they have a very talented roster Buck. 574 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: So either you can get creative and package players with picks, 575 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 1: or you get you You spend this next period of 576 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: time once the league year starts to be able to 577 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 1: maybe trade some veterans, acquire some picks and kind of 578 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: increase your arsenal there. So you have what you need 579 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: if you wanted to move up for a guy like 580 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,719 Speaker 1: to them. So I keep an eye on them all right. 581 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: Next question, Uh, let's go here five. I think we 582 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 1: kind of touched on the one right after that, Bucks 583 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: the same that's kind of the same question we just answered. 584 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: So let's go to the next one. Uh, do you 585 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: think Ceedee Lamb is too tempting for the Cardinals to 586 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: pass on over an offensive lineman? Reuniting Murray and Ceedee 587 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: Lamb Um. This is interesting question. And while I love 588 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, buck, let me give you my theory on 589 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: why I think I would go the offensive line route 590 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: number one. Protecting Kirk. Not only you want to I 591 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: mean protecting Kirk, protecting um Um Murray. You want to 592 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: be able to keep him healthy. But it's not only that, 593 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 1: but it's not even keeping him healthy. You remember earlier 594 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: in the year they tried to get everybody out in 595 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: the route they couldn't protect, and then then you saw 596 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: Kingsbury start playing with more tight ends, had to adjust 597 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: what he was doing to help give him some time, 598 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,120 Speaker 1: and it was a lot of two man three man routes. Um. Well, 599 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: for that offense to go as they envision it, they 600 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: gotta get more guys out and the only way you 601 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: can get more guys out is if you're better upfront. 602 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: So while I love Ceedee Lamb, I'm I'm made, I 603 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: am the president of the Ceedee Lamb Fan Club. I 604 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,479 Speaker 1: think for their offense, it do them more good and 605 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: give them more that they could expand in their offense 606 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 1: if they got better upfront, which would keep them from 607 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 1: having to keep those tight ends in look, man, I 608 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: I love the situation a lot of times. DJ and 609 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: we've talked about this. We've talked about in the days 610 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: leading up to the draft to exercise that we typically 611 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: do as a scouting staff. What we do is we 612 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: kind of assess where the strengths and the weaknesses in 613 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: the draft, where is the depth and so this year 614 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: in this class, the strengths the supply is that wide receiver. Uh. 615 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: The offensive line class is good, the offensive tackle class 616 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: is solid. Is solid at the top. Though, So if 617 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: I could tell you that, hey, I could go and 618 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: get one of the top offensive tackles and then come 619 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: back and maybe in the second round get Jalen reagor 620 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: are Brandon Aiyuk, I think I would take that because 621 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: the drop off is so significant at offensive tackle that 622 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: I would rather get the best offensive tackle that I 623 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: could get and then maybe get a B plus wide 624 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: receiver in the second round. Because we have seen second 625 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: round receivers A J. Brown, uh, Deebo Samuel, we saw 626 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. Those guys have emerged him in big time playmakers. Yeah, 627 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: I'm opting for the big guy over the skill guy 628 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: because in the second round I can get a skilled 629 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: guy that can be a Pro Bowl caliber player. All right, 630 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: we'll get us to the next question here book. Oh man, 631 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: look at this rich non quarterback has the highest selling 632 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: in this draft offense and defense. Man, This is by 633 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: at tag about nothing. This is interesting to me, and 634 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: it's interesting to me, um because there are a couple 635 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: of different guys that kind of pop when I think 636 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: of it. Uh. The first guy that pops and comes 637 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: to mind Derek Brown for Auburn. And I know people 638 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: talk about, oh, Dick Brown, he's a blue chip player. Yeah, 639 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: but I don't think we've given Derek Brown enough conversation 640 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: about how good he could be. We've talked about Chase 641 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: Young being the best defensive player in the draft. But 642 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: I think we can make a case that even though 643 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: Chase Young is a generational talent in terms of checking 644 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: off all the boxes, when you look at Derek Brown 645 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: on tape, Derry Brown does some special things. And I 646 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: hate to say this because it's almost blasphemous for me 647 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: to mention him with the name that I'm gonna mention, 648 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: but Ingram Bay, I had an opportunity to play with 649 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: the late Reggie White, and I'm not saying that Derek 650 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: Brown is Reggie White. But what I'm saying is some 651 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: of the things that I saw Derek Brown do on 652 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: tape in terms of throwing guys and humping guys, that's 653 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: the stuff that I remember ninety two doing for the 654 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. And once again, I'm not saying he 655 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: is that, but Derek Brown is a grown man, and 656 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: I just believe at this level, sometimes inside you have 657 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: to have someone that is an absolute destroyer. He is 658 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: a destroyer of young men inside. Yeah, that that hump move, 659 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: which is just taking your inside arm forklifting the dude 660 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: up in the air and throwing him aside. What Reggie 661 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: White did for all those years. You see Derek Brown 662 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: do that. I was having a conversation with the GM 663 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: the other day and I said, I said, hey, do 664 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: you like the uh you like the L s U Guard? 665 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: I just finished watching the LSU Guard. I think Damian Lewis, 666 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: He's like God, I'm just not that fired up about him. 667 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: I go, look, did you watch the Army? Yeah? I watch. 668 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: Look that dude at Auburn does that to everybody. Don't 669 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: penalize the guard from L s U. He does that 670 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: to everybody. Go watch some other guys, that guy is 671 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: not human. Okay, so you gotta divorce yourself from that. 672 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: You can't. You can't let Derek Brown reckon shop on 673 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 1: these offensive lineman. Allow you to kill the offensive lineman 674 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: because he did it to everybody he played against. He's 675 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: a look dj um And I know we we talked 676 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: about the SEC and I know as he's he's kind 677 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: of been put on the pedal still when it comes 678 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: to producing talent. But sometimes when you just happen to 679 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: watch guys and you're watching the Auburn tape and you're 680 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: looking at Derek Brown just act like a superhero. He's 681 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: just knocking people around or whatever. He's knocking people around. It. 682 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: I think Morland Davidson looks at him in film and 683 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: it's like, I guess I'm supposed to knock people around 684 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: two because when I looked at the L s U game, 685 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: I saw both of those guys. I saw both of 686 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: those guys just tossing people out the club. It's it's 687 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 1: unbelievable to watch it. But yeah, Derek Brown, Derek Brown 688 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: is especial player. And I think in any other draft class, 689 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: we didn't have like these quarterbacks and the fascination about 690 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: the throwers. We will be talking about the conversation between 691 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: Derek Brown Chase Young, which one would you want? Which 692 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: one is going to be the guy that dominates the 693 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: league for the next ten years. I asked Burrow, who's 694 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: the best player you played against? He said, Derek Brown. 695 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: I said, who's the second best player you played against? 696 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: Marlon Davidson that that Auburn defensive line was no joke man. Uh? 697 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: He big time, big time dudes. Uh. The other other 698 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: upside guys, I would say Buck for for me, Um, 699 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: I'll say Simmons just because Isaiah Simmons can do so 700 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: many things on defense. He's kind of the new wave 701 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: player from Clemson. So I'll put him on the upside. 702 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: And then for for the offensive side, non quarterback upside, 703 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go McKay Beckton uh from Louis because you 704 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: just at six seven, three seventy pounds to move around 705 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: like he does. I mean, that's to me the definition 706 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: of upside, like what what you could do with him 707 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,239 Speaker 1: and what he can be? Hey, DJ, and I know, 708 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: like talking about offensive tackles isn't necessarily a sexy topic, 709 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: Like it's not one desk going to generated a lot 710 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: of clicks, but I had a chance to go back 711 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: through because I was doing all my top five and 712 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: I was looking at all the offensive tackles at the 713 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: top of the board or whatever, and man, I think 714 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: this is a rare year where you can have your choice. 715 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Beckton and I'm writing down in my 716 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: nose like, oh, dancing bear strong with light feed and 717 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: this and that, And then I go right back to Worfs, 718 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: Tristian Worfs from Iowa, and I'm looking at him and 719 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, dancing bear life feed, nice technique. Then 720 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, it's like, oh, dancing bear, nice feet. 721 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: I just believe this is a special year where you 722 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: really have like five guys that could could go in 723 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: the first round, maybe even more at offense tackle. But 724 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: all of these guys should be Day one players. And 725 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: even though some have played right tackle in college, I mean, 726 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: they have the footwork that would normally be ruther is 727 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: required of being a left tackle in the league. I agree. Uh, 728 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: the next question, I feel like we've already kind of 729 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: answered the Dolphins trade up. Uh, you already kind of 730 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: mentioned that they should, so we can skip that one. Well, 731 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: let's go to the next one here. Well, will there 732 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: be a three down linebacker available to the Packers when 733 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: they pick it thirty? They need speed linebacker and wide 734 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 1: receivers deep, So if Kenneth Murray is there, they take him. Right. Um, 735 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a I think that would be a 736 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 1: great pick for them if they picked Kenneth Murray. There. 737 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: I know he got mad at me the other day 738 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: or I don't know, he retweeted something because yeah, because 739 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,359 Speaker 1: you know one of those deals where you do an 740 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: interview and they ask you, um, hey, is Kenneth Murray? 741 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: Is he is he Luke Keikley. Uh I'll say this, 742 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: I'll say this. He can be so he can be 743 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: mad at me. Uh no, no, no, no, um. He 744 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,959 Speaker 1: he is a good player. He's fast, explosive, but instinctwise, 745 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 1: that's that's a different level there. You know. No, I 746 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: don't put him with the Devon's from last year. I 747 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: don't put him with Devon Bush or Devon White. But 748 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: he's a really good football player and at thirty Yeah, 749 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm with that for the Packers. Okay, So 750 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 1: so the great that I gave him DJ is right 751 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: at that that it would be right at that borderline 752 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: first second round thing. When I looked at him and 753 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,479 Speaker 1: evaluated him, I was like, look, man, super athletic, quick 754 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,439 Speaker 1: fast sideline, the sideline, good blisser and stints. It's good 755 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: cover skills. But you know what I never saw. I 756 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 1: didn't see a great player in any one area, you know, like, 757 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: And it was tough because what you're looking at you 758 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 1: looking to see, Hey, can I see him dominate? And 759 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 1: it's funny. I watched him, and then I wanted Zach 760 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: Bard back to back, and I looked at the Wisconsin kid, 761 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: and I'm looking at the Wisconsin kid. Come off the edge. 762 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: He's making plays, he's tracking people down from the back end. 763 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: And so my thing is when you're looking at the tape, 764 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: like you just kind of want to make it easy, 765 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: like if this was a two or three minute highlight tape. 766 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: If I'm looking at the highlight tape and I go, 767 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: oh uh, wow, that's what I want to see. I 768 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,959 Speaker 1: didn't feel like I had enough wild plays from Kenneth Murray. 769 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 1: I think, look, if the Green Bay Packs are able 770 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: to get him at thirty, he's a perfect fit for them. 771 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: He upgrades the athleticism and speed and their sideline, the 772 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 1: sideline playmaking abuilding. But he's certainly not uh what we 773 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: were talking about in Devin Bush and Devin White, those 774 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: guys that we saw come out a year ago. No, 775 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you, all right, next one, here what 776 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: challenges are presented for scouts when teams change systems? How 777 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: do you communicate scheme fit and scouting reports? So the 778 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: challenges are like when you have a new coach take takeover. Uh, 779 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: the new coach has to sit with the personnel directors, 780 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: he has to playing here's my vision for how I 781 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: want to play, and here the kind of players that 782 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: I want. Uh. We are a three or four team, 783 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: and we want the big guys up front to be 784 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,279 Speaker 1: two gappers, meaning we occupy the gap to the right 785 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: and the left. So we've got to be stout and 786 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 1: stronger or whatever. I need these guys in the back end. 787 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: I want my corners at six foot who can jam 788 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: and reroute. The more zone corners demand demand corners, and 789 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: so the challenge for scouts. We go out on the year, Uh, 790 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 1: go out on the road each year looking for certain 791 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: players that fit how we play well in the fall. 792 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 1: If we go looking for something that was previously established, 793 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: and we get turnover. Now we gotta rework our eyes, 794 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: we gotta redo our grades because we're grading based on 795 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: how these players would fit in our scheme. And so 796 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 1: it's the I would say, the evaluation flexibility to be 797 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: able to project a player in multiple systems and those 798 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: grades corresponding with how they will play in those respective systems. 799 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: So this is the way we did in Philadelphia, which 800 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: I really liked, and I think of a lot of 801 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 1: teams to do this. You might you guys have done 802 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: this as well. Buck. You have the summary section, right, 803 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 1: so you're you're writing up the report on the player, 804 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: what he is, and that goes from and we've talked 805 00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 1: about writing reports before. You know, what is his body type, 806 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: where does he line up? Um, how does he play 807 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: against the run, how does he play against the past, 808 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: how's his effort, speed, athleticism, whatever, So that goes in 809 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: your summary report. Then underneath that, we had a box 810 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: called Eagles value, So underneath that we would write in there, 811 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: Okay for us, he plays you know, he's our Sam linebacker, um, 812 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: and he's better, he's better or worse than somebody on 813 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: your roster. So basically this is he's a starter for 814 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: us here at this spot. This is his role for 815 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: our team. So you get a coaching turnover, you don't 816 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 1: have to go back and change your whole summary of 817 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 1: your report. Um, that's telling you what he's done and 818 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: who he is as a player. All you have to 819 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: do is go back into that little Eagles value and say, okay, 820 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: now we we just switched fronts. So for us now 821 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 1: instead of being this, he's this, and that to me 822 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: puts him you know that's a good spot for him, 823 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: or you know it doesn't not really an ideal fit 824 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: for the Eagles, and that that is what you kind 825 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: of clean all that stuff up. Yeah, that is the way. 826 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: And so for the aspiring scouts that are listening, UM, 827 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: one of the tools that you have to be able 828 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: to have to be a really really good scout, it's 829 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: not just your eye, it's your ability to communicate. And 830 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: so that's not only verbally being able to stand in 831 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: front of the room and present it, but also uh 832 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: being able to write and being able to UH. Ron 833 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 1: Wolf always talked about, UH, can you paint the picture? 834 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: Can I listen to someone reading your report, close my 835 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: eyes and imagine what or envision what this player is 836 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: going to do. And so when we talk about that, 837 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: being able to communicate here's how this guy fits, here's 838 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: how he plays. And sometimes if you can give me 839 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: a comparison, a comparison of, hey, he kind of reminds 840 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: me of this player. It is all to paint the 841 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: picture on how a play a player will fit in 842 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: your system. And so, yeah, the communication skills to writing skills, Uh, 843 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: they're critical to being able to be to be a 844 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: really good scout, to being considered a really good scout, 845 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: because you have to be able to articulate it. Yeah, 846 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: and and the comparisons, especially if you can do it 847 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,479 Speaker 1: with guys on your own roster, like you know, hey, 848 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,800 Speaker 1: he's he's a better rusher than x UM with the 849 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 1: potential to be better against the run, but there's you know, 850 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: developments needed or whatever. So you're kind of describing, Okay, 851 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 1: this is I don't want to bring a guy in 852 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: if you're not gonna make us better. So compared to 853 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: somebody else that we have, whose job is he eventually 854 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: going to take, whose job is he gonna take right now? 855 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: Or how does he slide in to me? That's that's 856 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: a key part you need to understand your roster. I 857 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: think that's one thing that teams need to do a 858 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 1: better job with with their college scouts is having their 859 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:55,399 Speaker 1: college scouts spend more time studying your own roster, because look, 860 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 1: you don't want to bring guys in you're gonna cut. 861 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 1: You wanna bring guys in and make your team better. 862 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,800 Speaker 1: So to me, that's a key part of it. I 863 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 1: think that's missed by some teams out there, is understanding 864 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: your own roster with your scouts. Yeah, it's a very 865 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: critical part of it, and it's one of those things 866 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: that everyone has to understand, Like you have to know 867 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: your roster, you have to know the league. You have 868 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: to continue to study the league and figure out what 869 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: fits um. I think in that area, like for me, 870 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: I had a tough time with offensive lineman because we 871 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: will see you guys on the road and everyone is 872 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: looking for I talked about the Dancing Bear with life, 873 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: where there are a bunch of guys that play that 874 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: aren't there. They're a bunch of guys that are kind 875 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: of Malla brawler types that sometimes they're on the ground, 876 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: but they find a way in certain instances to be 877 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: able to play. And so you have to kind of 878 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,919 Speaker 1: know who succeeds, who's playing in the league, and how 879 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 1: they're sustaining their success, because that then gives you a 880 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: point of reference when you're looking at guys down the road, 881 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: no doubt. Um, all right, all right, I'm gonna move 882 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: to these last ones. Yeah, I'm I'm gonna move down 883 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,439 Speaker 1: because I'm gonna skip the chips chief because I'm gonna 884 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 1: go to this one because I think this is fast 885 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 1: and I want to get your take on it is 886 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill such a rare player or why don't teams 887 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: look like uh six and seventh round quarterback prospects and 888 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: make them into weapons at the NFL level? That is 889 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: by at Big John nineteen o six. I think the 890 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill conversation is absolutely fascinating to me. Um, I think, here, 891 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: here's what Taysom Hill is. Taysom Hill, to me was 892 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: kind of like the next version of Tim Tebow. When 893 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: I watched him at B y U. He was an 894 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: outstanding runner. He was a physical, uh playmaker when he 895 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: had the ball in his hands at b y U. 896 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: But he was oft injured at B y U. I mean, 897 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: he had a ton of injuries at b y U. 898 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: That really kind of prevented you from being able to 899 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: really project him as a player and then as a quarterback. 900 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 1: Going back to when he came out, that style of 901 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: quarterback wasn't in vogue. You didn't see the run first 902 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: quarterback UM viewed as a guy that was optimal that hey, 903 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 1: this is who we want in the National Football League, 904 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 1: and so um unless those guys could play multiple sports, 905 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 1: I mean multiple positions, unless they were willing to move 906 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: away from being a quarterback, it made it really hard. 907 00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,399 Speaker 1: And the only way that you could project or really 908 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: make that for deck projection, you had to talk to 909 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: him and you had to get some buy in from 910 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: the kid. And so the reason why you don't see 911 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: more teams kind of project guys in this way, a 912 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 1: lot of players are unwilling to make that move. When 913 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: you initially suggested doing the run up to the draft, well, 914 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,800 Speaker 1: I think this other thing too. People need to remember 915 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 1: about Taysom Hill. As we've had the athletic some of 916 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: these athletic quarterbacks, people have tried to try him in 917 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 1: different roles and do different things, and it hasn't always 918 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: worked out. And some of the reason is because you 919 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: might get a guy like a Pat White, right, it 920 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,399 Speaker 1: was fast, really athletic, but he's real skinny. Yeah, even 921 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: r G three, who was a little bit leaner, you know. Um, 922 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: then you look at Tim Tebo. Tim Tebow ran four 923 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: seven to Taysom Hill ran four four four. Like this 924 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: is a guy who's, you know, two hundred and twenty 925 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 1: five pounds is running four four Like this is not 926 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: like people kind of act like, oh, you gotta Taysom 927 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: Hill every year, Like no, No, there's not two hundred 928 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: five pound quarterbacks that run four four that come out 929 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: every single year like those. He even though he was 930 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 1: later selection or was a there isn't because of the 931 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: ability it was he was. He was. He was an 932 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 1: injury prone. He had a ton of injuries. There b 933 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 1: why you would feel like he was a b by 934 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: you forever? Um he was why if he was clean 935 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: health wise, he would have got picked. He would have 936 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: got picked just off of his measurables. Yeah, he would 937 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: have got picked off his measurables. And here's what I'll 938 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: say about the Taysom Hill conversation. I'm sure I'm gonna 939 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: write about it later in the week. You know who 940 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill really is Taysom Hill is Cordell Steward. So 941 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 1: when you go back and you think about Cordell Steward, 942 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: when Cordell Steward was coming out of Colorado, big, physical, fast, Uh, 943 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:32,880 Speaker 1: you wanted to give him a chance to play quarterback, 944 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 1: but you just didn't know. Um, the Pittsburgh Steelers take him, 945 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: select him, and what did he do? He was slash 946 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 1: part running back, part receiver, part playmaker, and then he 947 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 1: got a shot to be a quarterback. Maybe Taysom Hill 948 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 1: is that. The only thing is you didn't know because 949 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: he was so injured in college, you didn't know how 950 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 1: he would hold up. Now we'll see in the off 951 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 1: season where people really view him as a quarterback. But 952 00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: to me, Taysom Hill is a version in a very 953 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,919 Speaker 1: s of what Cordelle Stewart was early in in the league. Look, 954 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 1: people are gonna debate whether what do you you know 955 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: what he's gonna do and how much successful have at quarterback. 956 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,719 Speaker 1: I'm here for it, man, that's a great storyline in 957 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: the league. I'm I hope, I hope he goes somewhere 958 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: where they let him start at quarterback. I don't know 959 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: if he's physically gonna hold up over the over the 960 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 1: entire season, Buck, But it canna be fun to watch, 961 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: you know, as we've seen the creative offense that the 962 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens have run. I'm here for it, man. I 963 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: think it's good for football. I think it's fun to watch. Um. 964 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,879 Speaker 1: I hope he does get a shot at quarterback. Look, 965 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 1: if he does get a shot, I just think he 966 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,040 Speaker 1: continues to speak to the revolution that that we're seeing 967 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. You're seeing more and more offensive 968 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,919 Speaker 1: coordinators like, hey, you know what, I need my guy 969 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: to be a passer. Plus he needs to be a 970 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: good pastor, but he also needs to be able to 971 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: add some other dimensions to our offense. And so look, man, 972 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 1: I'm all for athletic quarterbacks. I'm all for creativity and 973 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,919 Speaker 1: doing it a little different than it's been done before 974 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: in the National Football League. So kudos to tast some meal. Alright, 975 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,359 Speaker 1: let's uh get to this next one here quickly. Some 976 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: of your favorite small school players. I like, we've talked 977 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: about these guys a bunch, but BArch from St. John's 978 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: The Tackle had a good week. Kyle Dugger from Lenore 979 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 1: Ryan had a great week. Senior Bowl guys. And then 980 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: Adam Troutman from Dayton. I know they're all Senior Bowl guys, 981 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: so technically not like deep deep cut sleepers, but those 982 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 1: are three of my favorite small school guys. Yeah, I'm 983 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 1: with that because if they played a Senior Bowl. To me, 984 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: it's just, uh, it's about finding players that could play 985 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 1: at the highest level. I think the Senior Bowl is 986 00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:26,280 Speaker 1: a way to start. I think, look, we've been around 987 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:30,280 Speaker 1: this for so long. I there's something to knowing guys. 988 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: We don't have to look up under every rock to 989 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:33,959 Speaker 1: try and find the guys. They kind of find their way. 990 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 1: I think those three guys that you mentioned, Troutman, Dougger, 991 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: and Bart are guys that are small school guys who 992 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,320 Speaker 1: should have an opportunity to have a lot of success. 993 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: Um um, Okay, here we go. Do you want to 994 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: go the next one? Yeah, we're going next one. What 995 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: scouting team building philosophy do you guys argue about the most? 996 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this sentence is all what scouting team building 997 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 1: philosophy do you guys argue with each of the most about? Um? 998 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 1: I think probably the running back thing. I think running 999 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: backs and draft status because we come from two different 1000 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: to two different schools. I thought. I was at a 1001 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: place in Carolina where we valued running back to the 1002 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,240 Speaker 1: point where we would take them in the first round. 1003 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 1: I mean, we we took guys high, and we believed, hey, 1004 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,160 Speaker 1: you take a guy high, and then when he is 1005 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 1: nearing the end of that first deal, you take another 1006 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 1: guy high. And so I sat there and watched Andon 1007 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: when de Shaun Foster was the second round pick, and 1008 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: then they added D'Angelo Williams was the first round pick, 1009 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 1: and then Jonathan Stewart comes on board, and so it's 1010 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: just one of those things where you value them in 1011 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: a different level. I think you come from a different 1012 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: place where you see value in getting running backs a 1013 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 1: little down the line. Yeah. The only thing I would say, though, 1014 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 1: is I've and I've seen it both ways. And I 1015 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,360 Speaker 1: was in Baltimore and we watched Jamal Lewis rush for 1016 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,360 Speaker 1: two thousand yards. It was a fifth pick in the draft, 1017 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 1: so they invested in that there and kind of wrote 1018 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 1: his coat tails offensively for for a long period of time. 1019 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: So my whole philosophy on the running back thing is simple. 1020 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 1: I'm not against taking a running back high in the draft. 1021 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: To me take one with with two things. Number one, 1022 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: he's gotta be special on elite number or three things. 1023 00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,800 Speaker 1: I should say he's gotta be special elite number two. 1024 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 1: You don't bypass you know, an elite player at another 1025 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 1: you know, the quarterback, defensive end, corner. You know, there 1026 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,879 Speaker 1: is still a hierarchy of positions, and I think they 1027 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 1: slide down there, but I'm not. I will take a 1028 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 1: great running back over a good player at some of 1029 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: those other you know positions, safe quarterback. And the last 1030 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 1: thing I would say is I do like the philosophy 1031 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 1: of let's try and build out as much of your 1032 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:23,879 Speaker 1: team as possible and then drop that running back in, 1033 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 1: that high pick running back, because then his carriers will matter, 1034 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 1: they'll be useful if there's a limited number of them. 1035 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:30,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to waste him on teams are gonna 1036 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 1: win five games. That makes sense, makes a lot of sense, 1037 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 1: because then I think you also will subscribe to the 1038 00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: theory of I'm never paying one, because I think when 1039 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: you talk about doing it that way where you build 1040 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: up the rest of the team and dropped the running 1041 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 1: back in, you're dropping him. And you can even tell 1042 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: them on the day a man, congratulations. I just want 1043 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 1: you to know you're not going to be a lifelong whatever. 1044 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna We're gonna draft you, and we're gonna ride 1045 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: you to the wheels fall off for five years and 1046 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 1: then we're gonna let you get your money elsewhere. But 1047 00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: we never will resign another running back. And I saw 1048 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: I play out in Seattle. We took Sean Alexander. He 1049 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,520 Speaker 1: was terrific player for US, played a tremendous high level. 1050 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 1: When they made a decision to pay him on that 1051 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: second deal, he was never the same. And so there's 1052 00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: something to a draft one high. But make sure when 1053 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,399 Speaker 1: you draft him, you know a that five years we're 1054 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: gonna use him. We canna use them up and then 1055 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 1: we'll let someone else kind of take him after that. 1056 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,840 Speaker 1: Draft him high after five say bye, Like that's like 1057 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: that's the that's the philosophy, up on the up on 1058 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 1: the room, all right, Uh, sixteen, skip that one buck, 1059 00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 1: let's go to let's go to the last one here, seventeen. 1060 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: If you're a GM, what would be on the checklist 1061 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 1: of things you want out of a draft, meaning certain 1062 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: positions or extra picks? Um. I've always look the goal 1063 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 1: to me was always three starters. If you get three 1064 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,759 Speaker 1: starters out of a draft wherever they may fall, that 1065 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,720 Speaker 1: is a really good draft. Four starters is an unbelievable draft. 1066 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: So to me, I always kind of look at that 1067 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:56,399 Speaker 1: three or four starters and then I we've talked about 1068 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 1: this before. I'm always of the mindset of I want 1069 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,400 Speaker 1: to make a trade every year to get an extra 1070 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 1: three or four in the next year's draft. I want 1071 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: some extra capital to go on next year's draft. And 1072 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 1: the reason is when we get to the trade deadline, 1073 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: I have that little piece and I'm almost like setting 1074 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 1: that aside. It's like a savings account. I'm gonna have 1075 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 1: a little piece there, and if if we're in it 1076 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: and we've got a chance to make a trade to 1077 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,399 Speaker 1: try and help us, I've got that extra three or four, 1078 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: which is usually about all you need to make a 1079 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,800 Speaker 1: trade at the trade deadline to make your roster better. 1080 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: And if there's not anything there, then you go into 1081 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: the next draft. You've got an extra pick. But I 1082 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 1: would always want to come out of one draft with 1083 00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: at least one bonus pick in the next. In the 1084 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 1: following draft. Yeah, look, I I think that's important. I 1085 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: think I think you you touched on a couple of 1086 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:39,280 Speaker 1: things that are really important. I think the trade pieces terrific. 1087 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 1: I think when you're drafting this year, you always have 1088 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 1: to kind of draft with next year in mind in 1089 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: terms of you just want to have capital and currency 1090 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,400 Speaker 1: um in terms of what I want to come out with. 1091 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 1: You talk about three starters. I just think it's important 1092 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: those first two rounds. Those first two rounds, we gotta hit. 1093 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 1: But more importantly, I gotta hit on my first round picks. 1094 00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: My first round picks have to be guys that come 1095 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 1: in and their starters, and ideally you'd like them to 1096 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:05,279 Speaker 1: be started at a high level. But you and I 1097 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 1: have talked about it, and I don't know if this 1098 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: is all the way a Baltimore thing, but you can 1099 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 1: win a lot of games just hitting the ball in 1100 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: the fairway. I don't need to crush it. I don't 1101 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: need to hit it three hundred yards, but if I 1102 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 1: hit it two fifty right in the middle, it says 1103 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 1: that my next shot. The main thing is, let's just 1104 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 1: make sure that the guys that we take in the 1105 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 1: first round are guys that we know that we can trust, 1106 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 1: we can count on, we can depend on them coming 1107 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: in being solid, starters or more, and so spend the 1108 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 1: buck of your time really mining the first round, making 1109 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,120 Speaker 1: sure you get it right on the first round pick, 1110 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: because the league really is comprised of first round picks 1111 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: and some second rounders. When you go and you look 1112 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 1: at the Pro Bowl rosters, and I know people talk 1113 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 1: about it being watered down. The bulk of the Pro 1114 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 1: Bowl roster our first and second round picks. Make sure 1115 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,399 Speaker 1: you hit on those picks. Now that's good stuff. Man. 1116 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: Well this is fun going through all these questions. But 1117 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 1: I've had a fun discussion there at the top um 1118 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: as well as just kind of ripping through these questions. 1119 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: And again hashtag asked MTS if you want to keep 1120 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,239 Speaker 1: dropping those or the other place you can put them 1121 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: and we will definitely see them. As if you leave 1122 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,319 Speaker 1: us a review there on Apple Podcasts and drop your 1123 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: questions in there, we will get to those as well. 1124 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:12,239 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna do it for us. Anything else 1125 00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 1: you want to add before we get out of here, No, 1126 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: it is a great man.
