1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:21,440 Speaker 1: Oh SETI text text time. Welcome, Welcome to Tuesday, Welcome 2 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: to Orchard Park, Welcome to one Bill's Drive. And John 3 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: Murphy is Steve Taskers. We take a look on the 4 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: MSG side that the work going on inside new Airfield. 5 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,959 Speaker 1: I think they're getting ready to replace that surface, and uh, 6 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: looks like they're starting up by uh, you know, pulling 7 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: up all the rubber particles, right, yea, they're vacuuming all 8 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: the dirt for lack of a better word, you round 9 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: up rubber. Yeah, it's ground up rubber bits and it's 10 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: black like soil, and that's what gives the new Those 11 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: artificial turfs these days, they're cushing us, you know. So 12 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: they're it looks like they're vacuuming that out of there, 13 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: calling it out of there, and then they'll pull all 14 00:00:54,960 --> 00:01:00,080 Speaker 1: the grass, the green strands out and then replace it. Busy, busy, 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: busy offseason. Man. They don't pull it out by the strands, right, 16 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: they pull it out in sheets made. I don't know 17 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: they probably, well, we don't know anything about it. We're 18 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: gonna get it. Looks like we're in a bit of watch, 19 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna But what we should do is 20 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: get a guest to tell us exactly what's going on 21 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: and what's going in. Who would that be when I 22 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: don't know, is it Joe Frandina? I'm not sure in 23 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: operation not sure. They're replacing the carpet the field inside 24 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: new airfield, UH, and we need a guest to tell 25 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: us about it. We can sit here, put the video 26 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: up and get play by play. We can now they're 27 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: laying in uh, sod piece number three more after this. 28 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: That went in really smoothly there at that time. I 29 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 1: think we do need a guest, though, to come out 30 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: and talk about it, especially since we can see it right. 31 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: You can see it yourself if you're watching on MSG 32 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: the new field going in outside. Here's the thing. Do 33 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: you like the blue end zones here? I don't have 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,559 Speaker 1: problem with What about the red? Problem with that either? 35 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: And they're gonna change that. And here's the thing as well. 36 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: That's not just about the fields. They're going to that 37 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: orange or kind of it's supposed to be red, but 38 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: it's not. It's like that the track around the wall 39 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: inside the wall just before you get to the edge 40 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: of the turf. They're going to replace that too, and 41 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: that's gonna be a different color, and I think it's 42 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: gonna be like pale gray. It's like gonna go away 43 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: instead of jump out. Give us the definitive word on 44 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: what's going on. So if the railing around the inside 45 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: the wall, that little rubber eye surface, the smooth surface 46 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: is going to be gray, I think this. I think 47 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: the Zos need to go red. Okay. The problem was 48 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 1: the last time they did that, they do it with 49 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 1: the red turf. Right they make the trip. It wasn't 50 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: red enough. It was pink kind of you know what 51 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: I mean. You don't gotta get red red red. Yeah. Not. 52 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: We need a field that I said this already. We 53 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: need somebody to come in and tell us about what 54 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: the plan is for the field. Attention staff, they don't 55 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: even want attention there turn out watching, No, welcome to 56 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: the show. We're watching. My mom and dad who are watching. 57 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: Call them from from this great day of Kansas. Say listen, 58 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: you know, then they'll listen. We'll get him on the call. 59 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: We got a good show today. We're gonna talk with 60 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: Dawson Knox, Buffalo's what third round on pick tight end 61 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: from Tennessee. He'll be here from Duh. He'll be joining 62 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: us at twelve thirty today he is from Tennessee's from Nashville, Tennessee, 63 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: which had to confuse one of our favorite guests. At 64 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: one o'clock, he's gonna come out and talk about the 65 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: Dolphins draft. Armando Saugaro from the Miami Herald. He is 66 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: their NFL columnists. He's been very vocal. We've had him 67 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: on the show a lot talking about the Dolphins tanking. 68 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: He thinks that's the way they should go. And now 69 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: they go out and trade for a botified quarterback, unproven, 70 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: but he's a real he's the prospect. Yeah, Josh Rosen. 71 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: And now what does Armando think? We know what he thinks. 72 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: We read some of his columns, but he says it 73 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: was a mistake for the Dolphins to go out and 74 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: get Josh Rosen because that's not how you tank. We'll 75 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: talk about Armando about this at one Theoretically, though, you're 76 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: tanking to get a guy. If Josh Rosen's got a 77 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: chance to be that guy, he could put the tank 78 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: off for fifteen years, You're not gonna be unhappy about that. 79 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: So I'm Armando's I mean, I get it. I think 80 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: they kind of latch on that phrase is the phrase 81 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: of the two thousand teens right from two tank tanking 82 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: has become the thing for NFL franchises, not only not 83 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: just that NFL to do, but also to be like 84 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: it's now it's a vernacular, right, it's it's a verb. 85 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: You're tanking, and everybody knows exactly what the problem. The 86 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: deal is you're trying to get You're trying to get 87 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: bad to get better. The problem is doesn't always work, 88 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: not right away anyway. I mean, it does not work 89 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: in the NFL. I would submit, well, okay, a couple 90 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: of issues there. I would submit that everybody does not 91 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,239 Speaker 1: understand or as an agreement on what it means to tank. 92 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: In fact, when you were gone back in when were 93 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: you gone in March? I had a huge argument with 94 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 1: our buddy, job was Scallia, who I love. I've had 95 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: him on the show several of them several times since then, 96 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: but a huge argument about tanking and where and it 97 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: started from this where the Dolphins tanking and what does 98 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: that mean? And we got into it. Joe says, anytime 99 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: you try to build, I don't want to revisit it 100 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: because I don't want to. I don't want to get 101 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: Joe angry at me again. But his basic conception was 102 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: anytime you try to rebuild your tanking, and I don't 103 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: agree that. We just couldn't arrive at in an agreement 104 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: on what it meant to tank. Armando, I think has 105 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 1: kind of a different view on this too, But you're right. 106 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: It is a it's a thing. It's a thing and 107 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: not just NFL. And I agree with you. And I 108 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: try to make this point with Joe who claimed that 109 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: the bills um but last year he said was a tank. 110 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think it was, and that's 111 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: where the disagreement came. But whatever, or was it two 112 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: years before that, I don't know. Whatever, old argument, and 113 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: we won't revisit that today. But you're right, tanking is 114 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: a thing, and I think it comes from kind of 115 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: a younger demographic reliance on what I don't it's almost 116 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: like a quick fix. Yeah, but I think they get 117 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: caught up in kind of metrics and analytics like, well, 118 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: if you're not doing this, then you're tanking. And I 119 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: think it's a mistake and I think it's a misapplication 120 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: of the phrase tanking. Anyway, it's a long way to 121 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: saying we're going to talk without Armando Selgaro about this 122 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: coming up at one YEA. And one of the things 123 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: we discussed, you know, we talk about the show and 124 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: both in small all picture is what we're gonna do 125 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: like just after the break, and we also talk about 126 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: in a week, like how we're gonna do this week, 127 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: and we talk about, you know, where we're headed down 128 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: the road, like the next thing we've got is OTAs 129 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: and all that. So one of the things we come 130 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: up with is after this draft, let's let's talk maybe 131 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: about let's talk about the Dolphins and we'll have a 132 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: guest from the Dolphins on today, maybe get somebody from 133 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: the Jets on tomorrow or Thursday, and then or tomorrow 134 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: we'll get somebody from the Patriots on you know, go 135 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: down through the division just after the draft. So we're 136 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: going to try and do that, maybe the rest of 137 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: this week, have somebody on from the Patriots and the 138 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: New York Jets as well. And today we're starting with Miami. 139 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: And and because the trade for Josh Rosen was a 140 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm not saying, well, it was an a sidebar issue 141 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: to this draft that we don't usually have in other drafts. 142 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: The Arizona Cardinals were so bad last year. It contaminated 143 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen's ability to play, no question, but it also 144 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: eroded I think the Arizona Cardinals faith in what they 145 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: had started to try and build with by drafting a 146 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: young quarterback. I mean that was that was a bad 147 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: season for the Cardinals last year, and it caused them 148 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: not only to get rid of their head coach after 149 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: one year, which to me is the ultimate admission of 150 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: a huge mistake, and then to start rebuilding again twelve 151 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: months later in the same manner by kicking the side 152 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: all the pieces that you put together that may or 153 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: may not have been great, it just they're a mess. 154 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: They're a mess. So Josh Rosen, as a result of that, 155 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 1: ends up in the division with Sam Darnold, Josh Allen, 156 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen and of course Brady and you have three 157 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: of the top ten quarterback picks in that draft in 158 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: the same division. It's gonna be a blast. And hopefully, 159 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: and I keep saying this and people are and I 160 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: get it. I mean, I will hope the Bills win 161 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: the division for the next fifteen years straight, you know, 162 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: and go to eight Super Bowls, right, But it's gonna 163 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: be nice to have. You know, you like rivalries where 164 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: you've where it's balanced as well as you know, like 165 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: you like your guys better than you like their guys, 166 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: even though their guys are pretty good. It was that 167 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: way back in the day. And I know I'm colored 168 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: by the old guys, but like Jim Kelly and Dan Marino, 169 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: and I know people in Buffalo wanted their guy. I mean, 170 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: they liked Dan, they recommalize he was good, but they'd 171 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: rather have Jim and Miami people they'd rather have Dan 172 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: rather than you know, they didn't like Jim, you know 173 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: what I mean. Yeah, So it's fun to be in 174 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: those rivalries. And it would be fun if all three 175 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: of these guys, and you know, I liked Brady Brady 176 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: to go away, you know, anytime soon. But it'd be 177 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: fun to have these three guys, Josh Rosen, Sam Darneld 178 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: and Josh Allen in the division fighting against each other 179 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: for a decade plus. Yeah, it'd be fun. Yeah, I think, well, 180 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: first of all, initially with that group, but we talked 181 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: about a little bit on Friday or Mutton maybe, yes, say, 182 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: I can't remember to have those three top ten picks 183 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: from last year's draft quarterbacks in the same division means 184 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: that you're gonna have a storyline to follow for each 185 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: of these three teams. And the Dolphins with Rosenald get 186 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: caught up the speed here, right, But yeah, I mean 187 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo. You hope that the Bills ascend and 188 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: take the lead in that group, including the lead over 189 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: the Patriots eventually. But that'll be fun. The other thing 190 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: they have, those three, I mean, it's kind of a 191 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: similar situation you mentioned Jim and Dan Marino, Kenny Brian 192 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 1: was drafted in the first round in eighty three, two 193 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: the three of them, and it was in the same 194 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: three teams. They're all set up now. Brian's sort of 195 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: didn't fade. He wasn't a great Hall of Fame caliber 196 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: quarterback like Marino and Kelly, but he was there. He 197 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 1: was in that eighty three first round. That quarter was 198 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: seven of them. There were seven in the same division, 199 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: same three teams, and it was fun. It was kind 200 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: of fun back then. We'll see if they get three 201 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: of those guys ended up going to the Hall of Fame, Elway, Marino, Jim, Kelly, 202 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: m three of them, all three of them first ballot. 203 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean there were they were like wow, yeah, you know, 204 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: and Jim and Dan went at it and they're still 205 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: close friends because of it. And it was fun. It 206 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: was fun, and it will see if I mean, it's 207 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: it's a lot to hope for, I mean, to have 208 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: all three of those guys hit it, but still, nevertheless, 209 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun, particularly here in the early going 210 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: and eighty three they all became starters too. The three 211 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: went to all of fame in this division. Hey um. 212 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Also on the show today, we mentioned Armando Saugaro.

There 276 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: were people who are wondering, if he's winning so much money, 277 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: if he could, if he could bankrupt the show, you know, 278 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: if the producers might say, well, and actually I saw 279 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: a quote from one of the Jeopardy producers said, well, 280 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: we don't budget this much money for winners. We budget 281 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: like half this much money. And he is so proficient 282 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: at betting.

There's 324 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: these mysterious characters that are you know, the big time. 325 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: There's the people that live their life the right way 326 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: and for the right reasons, and you pull for you 327 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: know what I mean. There's expans the gamut and it's 328 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: all about and it's all politically charged about who's going 329 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: to rule this kingdom. There's seven kingdoms and there's worthy 330 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: candidates all over the place, some people who should be 331 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: who can't, who will never get there because they were 332 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: not born properly right, or it's it's a whole thing, 333 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: and the good people tend to gravitate towards one another, 334 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: the people you cheer for, and the ones you don't 335 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: don't And the more evil they get, the more on 336 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: an island they get. It's just one thing after another, 337 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: and it is epic. It's wide ranging over time and 338 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: kingdoms and travel in different plots and subplots going on 339 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: all the time, and it's you know, there's it's eight seasons. 340 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: I think I think this is the last one. Eight seasons, 341 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: so you can imagine how wide ranging it goes. Yeah, 342 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: we caught up with it a couple of years ago. 343 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: We started probably about eighteen months ago, and we started 344 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: watching it two or three episodes at a time, and uh, 345 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: now we're caught up. And we watched the latest episode, 346 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: the Battle of winter Fell, last night. We we almost 347 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: had and I read social media, I almost had. We 348 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: tried to switch televisions because it's such a dark and 349 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: I mean dark like in black screen episode. You got 350 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: to have the right stuff and play. You gotta watching 351 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: the right manner or you can't see it. It's so 352 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: it takes place at night. It's battle and it's night. 353 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 1: I mean you're like in a cave, right, So it 354 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: was pretty frustrating at first, but you kind of get 355 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: used to it, I guess. So it was great. So 356 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: we're in the midst of it. Okay, season is an 357 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: episode two or three of the last season. I haven't 358 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: seen him. I did that a couple of years ago 359 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: once with Breaking Bad everyone. I made it through about 360 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: a third of that. Oh you gotta get to the end. 361 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: But I didn't watch it when it first came out. 362 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: I waited. Actually, I started watching it after the last 363 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: episode was was aired, right because you know, you can 364 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: find it anywhere on your team, because then you can 365 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 1: go and kind of watch it at your own pace. Yeah, 366 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: it was great, but I don't really I don't like 367 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: to spend that much time on TV. But this Jeopardy guy, 368 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: James Holshower, is amazing, that professional gambler, which gives me, 369 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: to be honest, it gives me new appreciation for the 370 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: h how good professional gamblers, how smart they have to 371 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: be right, how much they have to think things through. 372 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: He's really good, really good. A tweet on this a 373 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: Big Bills fan, Murph listening to you, I haven't seen 374 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: this guy in Jeopardy. I'm recording the show tonight. You 375 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: won't be disappointed. Here's another tweet, and this one's right. 376 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: We're talking about Kelly and Marino and kennel'brien, Bills, Dolphin, 377 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: Jets all getting first round quarterbacks in eighty three, and 378 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: Wayne A. Hall tweets this, and he's right. Wasn't Tony 379 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: Easton also taken first round by the Patriots? You imagine that, 380 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: Todd black Ledge? Yeah yeah, but in the division. Yeah well, 381 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: actually the division was different then, Yeah, cut right, the 382 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: Patriots were not in It was the Patriots, the Colts, 383 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: the Bills, Jets, Dolphins. Yeah, they were five team, but 384 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: four to five took quarterbacks first round in eighty three. 385 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: That's amazing. And now you think two Jim Kelly, Jim 386 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: didn't come to Buffalo. He went to Houston for two years. Right, 387 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: they didn't I'll start playing. They didn't all start playing. 388 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: The eighty six was his first year. So three years later, 389 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: two years, two full years later, then he Jim started 390 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: playing and uh and then it was two years after 391 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: that that the team got to where it was perennial 392 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: championship caliber. So yeah, it was. We will talk. We 393 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: will talk about the Dolphins quarterback Josh Rosen with Armando 394 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: su Garreltoney. We will talk with Chris Simms coming up 395 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: at two o'clock. We'll probably talk about Josh Rosen there. 396 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: And we've got Bills tight end draft pick Johnson Knox 397 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: come up at twelve thirty. That's the lineup today. I'm 398 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 1: not gonna talk about Jeopardy all day. We're gonna talk 399 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: about the Bills in the NFL, where were still a 400 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: couple of days, three days removed from the end of 401 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: the draft, and it occurs to us to think, Okay, 402 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: what's missing now white what they had a great crack. 403 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: They had went in with ten picks, chose eight players. 404 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: They had the free agency, the big free agency spending 405 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: binge back in March. So, now what. That's our Twitter 406 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: poll today and you can participate. Following the NFL Draft, 407 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: what is the biggest remaining personnel need for the Buffalo Bills? 408 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: What do you think?

We got 411 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: phone lines open eight oh three oh five fifty or 412 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: toll free one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. 413 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: Following the draft? What's the biggest remaining personnel need for 414 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills? The Twitter poll so far more than 415 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: four hundred votes in the first fifty minutes or so 416 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: of the show. It's close, it's good. Forty three percent 417 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: of you say edge rush, A prominent edge rusher is 418 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: the biggest personnel need remaining for the Bills. Forty two 419 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: percent you say wide receiver. That's close, ten percent say 420 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: tight end, and five percent say something else. I'd have 421 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: a hard time with this. Let me go backwards here. 422 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: Tight end, Yeah, I get it. They drafted too, that 423 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: was your first response this morning. But they don't really 424 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: have a proven NFL a veteran, or a guy with 425 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: decent NFL experience, extensive NFL experience on the roster at 426 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: tight end. I don't know. Tyler Croft is a pretty 427 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: good tight end. He was a good he just hasn't 428 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: played much. He's he's had some success for Cincinnati. And 429 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: the thing the big question mark because you got these 430 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 1: guys like Jake Fisher, who's a tackle moving to tight end, 431 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 1: so you know you've got them tight end that can block, right, right, 432 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: I guess I mean, isn't I'm just kind of taking 433 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: that for granted, but maybe maybe not. Um, they got 434 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: some guys there, and I let the two guys they 435 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: drafted whether their top quality elite tight end prospects or 436 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: not they are. That's the type of count of tight 437 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: end I think the Bills are looking for, meaning they 438 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: do everything well, they do everything well. They don't they're 439 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: not really great at blocking and really stinky at receiving 440 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: or really good at receiving, and they couldn't push a 441 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: blocking dummy over that kind of thing. These guys seem 442 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: to do everything at least a little bit well. So 443 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: that's the type of tight end the Bills are looking for. 444 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 1: I think Tyler Craft fits into that a little bit. 445 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Jake Fisher, he's a question mark. He may be a 446 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: guy at tight end that is, like I said, a 447 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: good blocker, not as good at receiver because he's been 448 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: playing offensive tackle up until this year. It'll be interesting 449 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: to see. I think they're an intriguing group, no question. 450 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: But I think they got enough bodies there and they're 451 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: gonna be able to cobble enough together enough skill at 452 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: that position to be okay. But I would have to 453 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: go with I'd have to go with the edge because 454 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: they've got Ed Oliver's a three technique, he's down inside. 455 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: They got the big defensive lineman, interior lineman that is 456 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: a penetrator and a game wrecker, which is awesome. Jerry 457 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: Hughes is a little is long in the tooth, although 458 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: he was very proficient last year, didn't have much help Murphy. 459 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: Trent Murphy, I think he's got to be disappointed with 460 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: his production last year. He was coming off the injury. 461 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: He had trouble getting on the field early because he's 462 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: coming off that catastrophic knee injury. I think he's gonna 463 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: be a much better player this year than he was 464 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 1: a year ago. And then you get down, you know, 465 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: Shack Lawson, you know, I think for a guy who 466 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: came back really rededicated last year and said, hey, this 467 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: is my year. I know, I got to prove myself 468 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: I'm healthy. Here we go, he was like, yeah, okay, 469 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: you know, he helped, but he didn't flash. So I 470 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: think edge rusher is the one place where I think, 471 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: and I don't know. After having said all that, they're 472 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 1: about the same spot as the tight ends. To me, 473 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: the tight ends have got a lot of question marks 474 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: with some young guys we don't know about. But the 475 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: guys they do have at edge have experience, they're solid, 476 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: they're not gonna embarrass you, They're gonna do what they're 477 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: supposed to do. And they got another year into this system. 478 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: As in Trent Murphy Man, it's it's a coin flip. 479 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 1: And I think that this this poll says that the 480 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: white although the pull says a wide receiver rather than 481 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: edge rush. I think the edge of rush in the 482 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: tight end or the more question marks. Um, look, we 483 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: were struggling, and this says something good. I think about 484 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: the Bills current roster construction, struggling to find a third 485 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,479 Speaker 1: option for a Twitter poll, Right, is a tight end? 486 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: Is it running back? What is it? And we settled 487 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: on tight end. That's not where I would vote for 488 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: the Bill's biggest personnel need. I just don't think there's 489 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: not a lot of proven top level tight end talent 490 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: on the roster. But we'll see, they'll have a chance. 491 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: Tyler Croft in particular, we'll have a chance to demonstrate 492 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: he's that guy. That's not where I would vote, would 493 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: vote wide receiver, and in his second year. And again 494 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: I said it yesterday, I understand why the Bills didn't 495 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: draft a wide out. I get it. I loved to 496 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 1: Brandon Mean's explanation, you know, about not jumping out down 497 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: the board to take a reach wide receiver. I get 498 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: that they took They stayed with their board, which is 499 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: important to do. But I still think the quarterback needs support. 500 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: The quarterback needs help. They they've done a great job 501 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: on the offensive line, signing all the what six or 502 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: seven the veteran free agent offensive lineman, drafting Cody Ford, 503 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: They've done a great job of kind of bolstering things 504 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: up front. I just think weaponry is a little bit 505 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: missing right and prominent weaponry, A number one receiver for 506 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: lack of a better term, a guy who can do 507 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of everything and line up and start. 508 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: I love John Brown. I was the biggest advocate for 509 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: John Brown even before they got him. I love what 510 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: Cole Beasley represents. A strong, you know, slot guy who 511 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: I believe will probably lead the team in receptions this year. 512 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 1: I like the prospects they have. Foster obviously showed a 513 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 1: lot last year. Is a Jones I think is taking 514 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: the right steps forward. But I just think they still 515 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: could use a prominent type want number one wide receiver. 516 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: That would be my vote. But what do you think 517 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: after the draft? What's the biggest remaining personnel need for 518 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. Give us a call to discuss eighth 519 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: three five fifty toll free from outside Buffalo one eight 520 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: eight eight five fifty two five fifty or vote in 521 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: our Twitter poll if you want to respond on Twitter, 522 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: we might even read your tweet. You got one there 523 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 1: you want to read? Yeah, I'll read the first couple 524 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: because they kind of agree with another from Jeremiah Ortiz 525 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: Edge Rusher. They need to solidify both edges for the 526 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: future and from sipp of the kool aid, I say, edge, 527 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: I think I really like our tight end and wide 528 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: receiver groups, especially if Duke Williams is who I think 529 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: he is now. The forty nine ers are shopping the 530 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen third overall pick and Solomon Thomas due to 531 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: lack of production. Maybe changing his scenery to Buffalo may 532 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: change that. We have done that with others in the past. 533 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: So you're right, and that's the thing that gets lost 534 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: in all of this as well. You mentioned a guy 535 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: like Solomon Thomas, who the forty nine ers seem to 536 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: be done with. There are some guys out there who 537 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: who can help, and they're you know, if you can 538 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: either get them by trade. You can find teams who, 539 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: now that they've gotten a guy in the draft, they're 540 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,120 Speaker 1: ready to deal a guy they feel like, they feel 541 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: like they'll be okay if they let a vet and 542 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,160 Speaker 1: player go. And I've got this list of players who 543 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: are still out there. I had a list, hold on, 544 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: let me just find it. There it is. Ziggyanza is 545 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: still out there. Eric Berry, the safety in Dominan sue. 546 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: Now he's not an edge rusher, but Corey Legit is 547 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 1: a very good inside pass rusher. Then you've got wide 548 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: receivers like Michael Crabtree, Jamie Collins, a linebacker, Trey Boston, 549 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: Jay and Guy the running back then Derek Morgan, Muhammad Wilkerson, 550 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: Shane Ray. They've got a lot there's and that those 551 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: that list is all over the map. There's a bunch 552 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: of a bunch of positions on that. But that gives 553 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: you an idea that there are players to add into 554 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: the rotation to give it, come to bring in and 555 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: let them compete to see if you can find a 556 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: guy who maybe does need a change the scenery. So 557 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,239 Speaker 1: I don't know that the Bills have room for it 558 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: for guys a bunch of people on their roster, because 559 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 1: I know they got they're almost you know, they're up 560 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: there in their limit. But if they get a guy 561 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: at the right position who can do it, who's been 562 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: a veteran, who just happens to come available, or who 563 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: they can trade for, yeah, it's I don't think this 564 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: roster has been chiseled in stone. No, absolutely not. And 565 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,239 Speaker 1: that's where we're asking you. After this draft completed three 566 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: days ago, what's the biggest remaining personnel need for the Bills. 567 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 1: We'll discuss that on the phone lines on Twitter, and 568 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: we'll continue that discussion all day long. Speaking of tight 569 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: ends that we were a minute ago, the Bills have 570 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: a new one. Dotson knocks added in the third round 571 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: on Friday night. He's scheduled to join us on the 572 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: phone line when we come back. Why don't you return. 573 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 1: It's One Bills Live.

They actually made a move up 581 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: into the bottom part of the third round to get 582 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 1: this tight end from old Miss Dawson Knoxon.

Yeah, so, yeah, it was really cool. I'm 589 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: like fifteen minutes from downtown and I was going to 590 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: have you know, a good bit of friends and family 591 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: open to my house. And he was kind of exciting 592 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: to just seeing the whole set out to the draft 593 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: downtown like a sudden two weeks before it even happened. 594 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: So there were just a lot of bugs around the 595 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: city and stuff. So it was a pretty cool stroll. 596 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: We had Bill's GM on Brandon Bean you said, he 597 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: said you were one of the players during the run 598 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 1: up to the draft that he saw play live, and 599 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: I know sometimes you don't really know that those guys 600 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: are around. Did you have any interaction with the Bills 601 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: organization to what extent and how many times did you 602 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: meet with anybody from the Bills organization before the draft? Yeah? 603 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: So I actually had a formal every combine with the 604 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: Bills also had a couple of informals. It's called the 605 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: train station at the combine. Um, so I actually got 606 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: to know everybody a pretty you know, a decent amount 607 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: at the combine and then leading up to the actual draft, 608 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: I really didn't have a whole lot of communication, but 609 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: they did schedule workout at home, miss Um and it 610 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: was actually with it wasn't with coach Boris.

Um. We just really quick, and I'd 637 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: like the wain that he teaches his you know, different 638 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: formation and just his teaching style, and um, I really 639 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: enjoyed that.

Um. You know, 643 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: it's just you know, have projector screens that come down 644 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: on the turf field that you know, help you walk 645 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: through different stuff and read coverage, and it was just 646 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: pretty incredible. And then the locker room was just really impressive, 647 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: and not to just talked to a couple of guys 648 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: for a second and then else and you know, I'd 649 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: really good teammates.

Yeah, 650 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: we've seen it right around the corner from our studio here. 651 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: We'll have to get you in here when you go 652 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: up here in a couple of weeks. Yeah, yeah, it'd 653 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: be great. Yeah, you were part of a One of 654 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: the things that maybe one of the reasons you you 655 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: didn't get drafted a little higher than you did was 656 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: the fact that you were on a team with a 657 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: bunch of really good wide receivers who were sought after 658 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: in this draft. So there weren't too many footballs at 659 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: Old Miss to go around for you to talk a 660 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: little bit about, you know, the quality of guys that 661 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: you played with at Old Miss. Yeah, so every every 662 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: person on offense was you know, extremely talented. I think 663 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: we had seven offensive guys at the combine. Um, you know, 664 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: obviously we had those receivers that were just all world 665 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: and everything. And you know, DK Metcalf, he's a freak 666 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: athlete and you know what he can do with the 667 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: football run, and obviously aj Aj Brown is just another 668 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: great athlete. DeMarcus Lodd actually ended up not getting drafted, 669 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: which was a shot to everybody. But he's already signed 670 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: a free aiden deal, so I think It was just 671 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: a really fun offense would be a part of because 672 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: you know that or we knew that every snap, you know, 673 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: we could be scoring eighty yard touchdowns with the playmakers 674 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: that we had. And then Jordan, our quarterback, did a 675 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: great job distributing the ball and reading defenses and kind 676 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: of exploiting some weaknesses. So it was and then our 677 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: running back Scottie he didn't come out of this year, 678 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: but he had he had close to a thousand yards. 679 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: I think he will be a key part of their 680 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: offense connect year. You know, obviously Oline was great with 681 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 1: Greg little Javon Patterson both got drafted, and then next 682 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: year we'll have Alex Gibbons coming out and he's going 683 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: to be highly sought after prospects. It was a right, 684 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: you know, system to be a part of. On the 685 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: line with Dawson, Knoxville's third round draft pick, the tight 686 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: end from Ole Miss, I want to talk to you 687 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: about the process of getting to Old Miss. Dawson. You 688 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: played high school football near your hometown there, Brentwood Academy 689 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 1: in Tennessee, and you were a quarterback and a really 690 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: accomplished quarterback. In fact, you had offers scholarship offers from 691 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: other schools to play quarterback. You chosen said to go 692 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: to Old Miss and do something else, right, Right, So 693 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: I've had a couple of small school offers, and I 694 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: knew that I wanted to play the higher level, and 695 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: I wasn't one hundred percent sure if I wanted to 696 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: keep playing quarterback. I knew that if I went to 697 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: Old Miss, they'd probably be transitioning me to tight end. 698 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: And at the time they had Evan Ingram. He was 699 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: at the Giants now and he had you know, a 700 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: couple of All American seasons and it was just really 701 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: impressive to watch and I could kind of see myself 702 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: doing similar things. Unfortunately, when he left, that offensive coordinator 703 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: left too, so we started running a new system. But 704 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: I really just to see myself playing at the highest 705 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: level in college, which I think is SEC and Evan 706 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: was just a great mentor and learning to process of 707 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: how to block and just you know, learning the right 708 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: work efforts. But you didn't It wasn't like the road 709 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: was paid for you right at Old Mission. Had to 710 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: you had to walk on there, and you had to 711 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: play mostly special teams your first year, right right, Yeah, 712 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: So I walked on. I had never played a day 713 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: of time into my life. I came in at probably 714 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: two hundred and ten pounds trying to block you know, 715 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: sec D landing and practice, and that was kind of 716 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: an eye opening experience for me. I had no idea 717 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: what I was doing. I was getting thrown around and 718 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: I just had to hit the weight room hard. I 719 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: ended up putting on about thirty pounds that first year 720 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: and was able to you know, kind of get my 721 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: technique down after I read showed it. And then that 722 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: next year, Evan was still there. I was backing him 723 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: up a little bit, and I was playing on all 724 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: the specialties, which was pretty fun just to you know, 725 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 1: start getting on the field. And then once even left, 726 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: I was, you know, I was ready to go and 727 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 1: start as a tight end. Talk a little bit about 728 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 1: I was like to ask you what kind of offense 729 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: were you running at Old Miss? Uh? You know, I 730 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: know you switched to coordinators, you know, kind of part 731 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: way through your career. Like you just mentioned, what did 732 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: you enjoy about you know, what do you enjoy about 733 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: playing tight end after being a quarterback for for early 734 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: in your career? I mean, what's the good part about 735 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 1: what you do? Yeah? So I think playing quarterback was 736 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: one of my biggest advantages because you know, you just 737 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: read the defense differently. You have to look at what 738 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: everybody's doing, and you kind of look at the entire 739 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: concept instead of just one person's role. So I think 740 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: it was a really beneficial thing for me to just 741 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 1: be able to know how linebackers dropping the coverage us 742 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: and it kind of helped me learn how to run 743 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 1: routes differently and you know when I should be open 744 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,919 Speaker 1: based on the progression of the play. Just little things 745 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 1: like that that really helped the learning process with me. 746 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: Hey Dawson, Before you were selected late in the third round, 747 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: there were three other tight ends and went in the 748 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: third round, and we had Bill gm Brandon Bean in 749 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 1: here with us yesterday, and he made a move up. 750 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: He gave up a couple of fourth rounders to go 751 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 1: up and get you in the third round. He felt 752 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: like he couldn't wait because he wanted you, and he 753 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: saw something kind of a run on tight ends there 754 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: in the third round. Did you feel that coming a 755 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: little bit, that maybe someone would jump up and get you. 756 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: You know, honestly, I wasn't sure because as I was 757 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: talking with my agent we were thinking that, you know, 758 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: it was getting to the late of the third round, 759 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: and we were thinking it was either going to be 760 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots at the end of the round or he 761 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: was going to be somebody in the fourth on the 762 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: next day. Right. So when I got that call, I 763 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: actually hadn't seen the trade yet. They hadn't announced it 764 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: on the TV UM, So I saw a New York 765 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: number coming in, and I was, you know, I really 766 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: had no idea who was going to be. So when 767 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: I answered the phone, I kind of realized the trade happened, 768 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: and then I we just got you know, super excited. 769 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: From there. It was kind of hard to describe that feeling. 770 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: What is the what are the bills told you about? 771 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 1: What's next for you? When are you gonna be up 772 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: here in Western New York? What's I know?

Oh yeah, for sure. Thank you 785 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 1: for having me. Thanks Dawson Dotson, Knox Bill's tight end 786 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: third round draft pick out of Old Miss, native of 787 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: the Nashville area, played at Old Miss, walked down at 788 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: Old Miss. He went from in three years eve from 789 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 1: a walk on to a draft pick, a third round 790 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 1: draft pick. That's pretty good. That's kind of an almost 791 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 1: skyrocketing right. Yeah. Yeah, that's it's you know, it's you 792 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 1: get to take a little hard work. Yeah, I mean 793 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: think about what that what was in front of him 794 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,760 Speaker 1: to get to where he's at. And he probably didn't 795 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 1: even know enough then about what he could do or 796 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: could become to even dream about being a guy who 797 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: would go in the middle of the draft, right because 798 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: you know, you think, gosh, I just want to make 799 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: this team. He's walking on. Yeah, and you just reminded 800 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 1: me of the late I always talk about John Butler 801 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: quotes but he used to say he don't know what 802 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: he don't know. He was probably in that boat. He 803 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: came in and really had to learn how to block. 804 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 1: He was, like he said, he was just over two 805 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: hundred pound. They're wideouts in the NFL way in more 806 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,879 Speaker 1: than two two hundred and ten pounds. So he had 807 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 1: to you know, bulk up and he was trying to 808 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: push you know, pro sized defensive lineman around in the SEC. 809 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: He had a lot of work to do, and he 810 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: he was a win. From quarterback to trying to block 811 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: the lineman. That's crazy talk, right, So it took an 812 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: incredible amount of effort for him. He just know, and 813 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: plus mental discipline. I mean, you gotta it's one thing 814 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: everybody says, well, it's easy to do, you know. He 815 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 1: just it's who who doesn't know how to put on weight? Right? 816 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:04,759 Speaker 1: It's when you're a young twentysomething kid. I struggled to 817 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: put on weight. I could not put on weight, and 818 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: I you know, it was a battle because your metabolism 819 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 1: so high. You're working out to stay in shape. And 820 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: it's more the more you work out, you can't gain weight. 821 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: But you got to gain weight and get in shape 822 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,240 Speaker 1: to play. So it's a real struggle. And I remember 823 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 1: I put on thirty five pounds from the time I 824 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: was a freshman till the time I was a fifth 825 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: year senior. It took forever, and it seems like it 826 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: took forever. It was a lifetime and the same thing. 827 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: So I know the kind of work and discipline and 828 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: just the sweat and just relentless effort that you have 829 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: to put in to do that to transform yourself into 830 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 1: a different position. And that's just the physical side of it, 831 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,359 Speaker 1: and that the mental side of it is a whole 832 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: is a battle of its own. Man, you gotta really 833 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 1: tip your hat to a guy who you want to 834 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 1: talk about the learning a career in college. That's that's 835 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: you can talk about math and science and all that stuff. 836 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: Doing it academically. This is just like except there's a 837 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: physical component to it as well. Kind of so hats 838 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 1: off to guys like Dawson Knox who have been able 839 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 1: to do it. Sounds like he's got it together mentally, certainly, 840 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: and we'll get a chance to know him a little 841 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: bit better when they do come up here about a 842 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: week and a half away. So what's left for the bills? 843 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: What remaining personnel needs do they have?

Yeah. 858 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: Well we had Yes, you're right, we got It was 859 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: fun having Dawson Knox on. He's a good interview. He 860 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: would he his lights are on, you know what I mean, 861 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 1: he knew, he knew what was going on to day 862 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: of the draft. He had he was communication he wow, Yeah, 863 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 1: what impressive kid. So it was fun. It was fun. Yeah, 864 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: the show flies by when you have good guests. Yes, 865 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: it's not just you and me sitting here right. I agree. Um, 866 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about the draft and what's 867 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: still missing now from the Bills mix. What do you 868 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: think if it's a call eight oh three five fifty 869 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: to three one eight eight eight five fifty two five 870 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: fifty Our buddy jose A Barca from Rochester's an interesting 871 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: tweet and this is why tight end is on that 872 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: Twitter poll, jose Abarca, I think articulately it's this very 873 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,960 Speaker 1: well on Twitter. We are still in need of approven 874 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: NFL caliber tight end. Crofton crowm are solid, but not 875 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,520 Speaker 1: the kind that would force defensive coordinators around the league 876 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: they have to plan against them. The other three players 877 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: are unproven talent, hopefully good. But I think he's right, 878 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: it's just unproven, and maybe that's what place the Bills go, 879 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,399 Speaker 1: not where I would vote for. The Bills are still 880 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: remaining a need. But I understand why people might say 881 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 1: tinnansty Yeah, this whole team is unproven. Well, the whole 882 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 1: roster is unproven. You've got some pretty good quality players, 883 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 1: players that you're really excited about. Most notably Josh Allen. 884 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 1: Here in Western New York. People are really excited about 885 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: what he can do. Mitch Morris is a great a 886 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 1: great edition. You've got guys that you depend on. Jerry 887 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: Hughes had a really good year last year on a defense. 888 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:35,240 Speaker 1: It was a top five defense, Tremaine Edmonds, Tredavious White, 889 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 1: the safeties. This offensive line is totally revamped. So people 890 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: are excited to see it come together, but none of 891 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: it is proven. And we've said that at the very 892 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: end it's coming down. It's gonna come down. And I 893 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: said this at the end last year. Certainly the pieces 894 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 1: all seem to be there in a way total, from 895 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: top to bottom of this roster, in a way that 896 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: they haven't been for a long long time. But still 897 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: it's all brand new. Sure, we don't know. We haven't 898 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,919 Speaker 1: seen any of it work together. We haven't seen any 899 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,800 Speaker 1: of these receivers work with Josh Allen on a regular basis, 900 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 1: except I mean the new ones, you know, Cole Beasley, 901 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: John Brown, Duke Williams, any of these other guys. We 902 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: haven't seen that on a consistent basis. Tight end group 903 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: is a complete unknown. So the entire roster falls into 904 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: the unproven agree category. Aged remaining two tweets I want 905 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: to read about receivers both interesting. This one comes from 906 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: Ronnie on the tweet sheet, the idea of a number 907 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: one wide receiver is severely overrated. He writes, there is 908 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: zero correlation between having a so called number one and 909 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: Super Bowls. I can't disagree with that. I can't disagree 910 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: with it, but I know people say that. But then 911 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: his last sentence says, the Patriots have been doing it 912 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: for years. What did the Patriots have that no one 913 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 1: else they have? Tom Brady, I think that's the answer. 914 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,399 Speaker 1: There one more Bills Mafia tweets this in. I think 915 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 1: wide receiver is our biggest need. I believe the reason 916 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: we didn't get one on the drafted because it is 917 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,799 Speaker 1: because the Bills have something big trade wise in the works. 918 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: They're gonna trade for a number one receiver. People believe that. 919 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 1: I understand that. I don't discount that. You sound like 920 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: you're ready to pooh pooh that idea, Steve. I don't know. 921 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,480 Speaker 1: They might, they might trade for a wide receiver, but 922 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: you know I do. Yeah. But come on and listen. 923 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,919 Speaker 1: We talk about Twitter, and we have this Twitter poll 924 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: every day. It's our topic. It keeps it and we 925 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 1: roll it through the three hours of this show. Let 926 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: me but we all know Twitter is puke. I mean, 927 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: there's so much snark on Twitter. I mean you can 928 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: use it and it's sark. We sit we you and 929 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 1: I sit here and filter through the garbage and give 930 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 1: and give people, you know, these well thought out tweets 931 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 1: that come through. But but there's yesterday's guy, We're gonna 932 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: trade Lashawn McCoy for aj Green. We didn't read that 933 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 1: one on the air, right, you know why? Yes, I 934 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 1: do know why. Yeah, because it's stupid. Nobody's gonna trade. 935 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,439 Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna trade for that. So you get all this point. 936 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 1: It's not all puke. It's no but you have to 937 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: sift through it to get it's the good stuff. That's 938 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: our job. And Jay Harris, we are puke sifters and 939 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: and I get it. There may be a trade in 940 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 1: the works where the bills are talking to somebody and 941 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, I here's the thing they're gonna trade for. 942 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: Number one. I don't want to hear about it until 943 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: you got a name. And I know this. We're gonna 944 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 1: we're gonna trade for Julio Jones. We're gonna trade. Listen, 945 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 1: We're gonna trade Duke Williams for for you know, is 946 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: this the point where you say jaggerating to make a point. 947 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what they think, that's why they do it. 948 00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: We're trading our twoy twenty one seventh round draft pick 949 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 1: for Julio Jones. I'm gonna get it done. Come on, 950 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: I give the fans a little more credit than that. 951 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 1: I just take a phone call Matt in Buffalo. Hello, Matt, welcome, 952 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,439 Speaker 1: you're on the air with this. Hey, guys, I think 953 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,840 Speaker 1: that we're desperately needing rad zone weapons, whether it's a 954 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 1: tight end or or a big wide receiver. I love 955 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,319 Speaker 1: the addition of John Brown and Cole Beasley and what 956 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 1: they bring to the passing game, But when we get 957 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,400 Speaker 1: tunted that red zone, I mean, those aren't big guys. 958 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,360 Speaker 1: Those are very, you know, cold, easily a lot of experience. 959 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 1: I love the veteran presence that he brings to the 960 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 1: locker room. And John Brown, I love the way that 961 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 1: he can fly down the field. But when we get 962 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 1: hut of the red zone, I'm just looking at what 963 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: Josh Allen has to throw too, and gosh, that's gonna 964 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 1: be a really difficult thing. You know. I don't think 965 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 1: that we've given him enough weapons to be the passible 966 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 1: in the red zone. And it's one of the reasons 967 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 1: why I was really disappointed and kind of shocked that 968 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: we would, you know, take our third round pick for 969 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: a fourth running back when we have a very clear 970 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:31,799 Speaker 1: need to give our our quarterback some some weapons for 971 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 1: the red zone. And I just didn't understand that move 972 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: at all. Who would give me an example of a 973 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: red zone target that's playing in the league now, Um, 974 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 1: I mean I was just thinking in terms of draft picks, Um, 975 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 1: you know, I was thinking there was some guys there. 976 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 1: Miles Boykin was one who was, you know, a big guy, 977 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,879 Speaker 1: super athletic, could get down the field, the big guy 978 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 1: from Iowa State, Kim Butler. Butler, he's there, um, you know, 979 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: so I think that there were options and also in 980 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: terms of you know, the tight ends that we took, 981 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 1: those are guys that are going to help us really 982 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: with blocking not so much, you know. I mean, I 983 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 1: guess it's it's unknown, right, There's a lot of unknown there. 984 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: But I just think in terms of priorities, I'm looking 985 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,839 Speaker 1: at our red zone weapons. That's really a thick deed 986 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 1: that we have. Whether it's a receiver or tight end. 987 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: I'd like to be able to give job to throw too. 988 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, and I get you, Matt, you're right. 989 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have one of those guys that's 990 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: gonna get up. But here's the thing. If you got 991 00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 1: one of those guys, they're gonna double team him and 992 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,720 Speaker 1: you're they're gonna try and take him away. My idea 993 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 1: about the red zone is about matchups and it's when 994 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: you can dictate. And if you say, will we don't 995 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: have anybody that can win a matchup one on one? Yeah, 996 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 1: you do. The problem is all you have to do. 997 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 1: And this is up to Brian Dable. It's not up 998 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,479 Speaker 1: to the player. It's up to the player and Brian 999 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 1: guys like Brian Dable to get like their own version 1000 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 1: of Rob Gronkowski matched up against your second safety or 1001 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 1: your third corner. That's the key to the red zone. 1002 00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: And I know you got guys, and there's guys who 1003 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 1: are gifted, there's no question about it. O'Dell Beckham Juniors. 1004 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 1: You got those guys that are you know, the Calvin 1005 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,280 Speaker 1: Johnson's of old and the Gronkowskis of old. Who could 1006 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 1: you know who are one on one physical uh you know, mismatch. 1007 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: Most teams and the Bills include to have people that 1008 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 1: are going to prove themselves ready to go out and 1009 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 1: get and get open in the red zone. A guy 1010 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: like Cole Beasley, as small as he is, when you 1011 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 1: get him one on one down inside the five yard line, 1012 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:30,279 Speaker 1: his specialty is getting separation in tight spots when he's 1013 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 1: covered in the slot, when there's when there's a you know, 1014 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 1: you got one guy on you And the only thing 1015 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: he doesn't get to do is just threatened him with 1016 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: the deep ball because the back of the end zones there. 1017 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 1: But those guys are specialized in working laterally and getting open, 1018 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: and so I'm not really worried about situational football at 1019 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 1: this point in time because Brian Dable and the rest 1020 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 1: of his coaching staff and coaches around the league specialize 1021 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: in coming up with ways for the what their own 1022 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: players do different thirty two teams. Teams all have thirty 1023 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: two different groups of guys. They specialize in getting what 1024 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:08,560 Speaker 1: they got. Those guys do great matched up against what 1025 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: the defense doesn't do great, and that's what it is. 1026 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: So that's what you can bet. Even though you don't 1027 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 1: have a guy that you can point tune says the 1028 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 1: red they're gonna come up with something they can do 1029 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,760 Speaker 1: in the red zone to get guys open and get touchdown. 1030 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: I want to ask you a question, but you gotta 1031 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:21,840 Speaker 1: promise me you'll be a short answer because we're up 1032 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: against If you were a defensive coordinator getting ready to 1033 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 1: play the Buffalo Bills tomorrow, which receiver would you double team? 1034 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 1: Who necessitates a double team everyone? I could? Okay, you 1035 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: gott I mean I have a double team. Depends on 1036 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,799 Speaker 1: what formation, depends on what sub package. I mean, how 1037 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 1: many tight ends do we have on the field. I 1038 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: mean there's a bunch of variables. I know which one 1039 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: would you be most worried about keeping in check? Well, 1040 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: if you're out there with just one wide receiver, that's 1041 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 1: the one I would. If you're out there with three 1042 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: wide that's the thing. That's the whole point, Murph. You 1043 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,319 Speaker 1: can dictate how many guys they're able to double team 1044 00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: and how they're gonna double team. If you motion the 1045 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 1: guy out outside of him and they got to adjust 1046 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 1: to that, there's no way see that's the thing. You'd 1047 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: be short. Okay, Yeah, I can dictate that they can't 1048 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: double team the guy that they want to. Okay, we're 1049 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the Dolphins. Armando Sugaro from the Miami Herald. 1050 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 1: What are they doing with Josh Rosen?

Armando Sugaro on the 1104 00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 1: line of the Hello Armando, John Murphy and Steve Tasker 1105 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 1: up here, Buffalo. Thanks for coming out, gentlemen. Always my 1106 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: pleasure coming on your show. We love him. And I 1107 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:08,879 Speaker 1: thought about you, believe it or not Friday night when 1108 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 1: the Dolphins completed the trade for Josh Rosen, and I 1109 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,120 Speaker 1: thought about you, and I thought, what about the tank? 1110 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: What about the tank? Armando? Well, the tank remains. And 1111 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 1: if you believe the Dolphins, and here's the so called plan, 1112 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:28,800 Speaker 1: what would happen is so Josh Rosen gets a chance 1113 00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: to win the job. I suppose he's gonna win the job, 1114 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: and then he gets a year to prove that he is, 1115 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: in fact, you know, the quarterback that was picked in 1116 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 1: the top ten a year ago by Arizona. In that year, 1117 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: the Dolphins will be checking out to see if he 1118 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:50,359 Speaker 1: is one productive to a leader, a guy that they 1119 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 1: want to be the face of the franchise. If in 1120 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 1: that one year, I guess whatever you want to call 1121 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: it a practice run as franchise quarterback, he gets it done, 1122 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 1: then great, then it's all settled. But if he doesn't produce, 1123 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 1: if there is a question mark, if the Dolphins find 1124 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: themselves at the top of the draft again next year, 1125 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:23,240 Speaker 1: kind of like the Cardinals did this year after Rosen 1126 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 1: started thirteen games for him, They'll pick a quarterback and 1127 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,960 Speaker 1: there's three of them at the very least who are 1128 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 1: expected to come out. So if the tank's whole purpose 1129 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 1: was to get the Dolphins to draft the quarterback in 1130 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, that's still on. Yeah, let's talk about this 1131 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: plan or what have you. What are the chances that 1132 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,799 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen comes in and plays any better for the 1133 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 1: Dolphins team than he did for a bad Arizona team 1134 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 1: last year that didn't have anybody on their roster. I mean, 1135 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: how what are the chances that he comes in and 1136 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 1: proves that Well, that's a great question. And you know, 1137 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 1: the thing I keep hearing about Josh Rosen's failure in 1138 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:10,600 Speaker 1: Arizona was that he played behind a really bad offensive line. 1139 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: Oh well, the Dolphins have a really bad offensive line. 1140 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,879 Speaker 1: In fact, they don't have really a starting caliber right 1141 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:24,400 Speaker 1: tackle there there. You know, first work on the field 1142 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:29,720 Speaker 1: this offseason features are starting right tackle who has really 1143 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 1: never started in the NFL, was an undrafted free agent 1144 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:38,239 Speaker 1: and isn't really considered the guy. And by the way, 1145 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:42,799 Speaker 1: he's never played right tackle before. So there's that. Their 1146 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 1: starting right guard is Chris Reid, who they got off 1147 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 1: waivers from Jacksonville, who was a backup in Jacksonville. So 1148 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 1: a guy that was a backup and was cut is 1149 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 1: the Dolphins starting right guard. The point that I make 1150 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 1: is if Josh Rosen had troubles in Arizona behind the 1151 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 1: poorest offensive line, well, you know it's it's about to 1152 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 1: repeat unless the Dolphins help him out here in the 1153 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,400 Speaker 1: final few weeks a free agency or after June first 1154 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: cuts are made. Armando, and that piece you wrote over 1155 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:24,040 Speaker 1: the weekend for the Miami Herald you referred to Josh 1156 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: Rosen has damaged goods. Can you elaborate on that? Why 1157 00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:31,280 Speaker 1: do you call him damaged goods? It's simple, he failed 1158 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: in Arizona. You know, when he arrived to Arizona, he 1159 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: talked to the reporters and told them he was the 1160 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: number ten overall pick. And he said to them, well, 1161 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make all the teams that pass on me 1162 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:50,959 Speaker 1: regret the fact that they passed on me, they all 1163 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 1: made mistakes. Here we are a year later, and the 1164 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 1: nine guys that were picked ahead of him are still 1165 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:02,480 Speaker 1: on their team and will have hopes according to those 1166 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:07,680 Speaker 1: teams of being really good players. The tense guy, Josh Rosen, 1167 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 1: he got replaced and then he got traded. And so 1168 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 1: it's not like, you know, that's not how you write 1169 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 1: a you know, a skyrocket to success story. That's not it. 1170 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 1: It Typically, you get drafted by a team and they 1171 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: believe in you, and off you go. Not you get 1172 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 1: drafted by a team and they get rid of you 1173 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 1: the next year because they think they got somebody better. 1174 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 1: Has Ryan Fitzpatrick said anything publicly about this. He's not. 1175 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 1: He's not been made available, and no one has been 1176 00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: able to get him. My guess is Ryan Fitzpatrick is 1177 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 1: going to take this in stride, and on the other hand, 1178 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna take this as a challenge. By the way, 1179 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 1: I love Ryan Fitzpatrick and his demeanor and the way 1180 00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:02,000 Speaker 1: that he handles his business. He's just eight and so 1181 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: I don't believe that it's gonna be a problem. But 1182 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,760 Speaker 1: I also don't think that Ryan Fitzpatrick is just gonna 1183 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: lay down and let Josh Rosen, you know, just take over. 1184 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a fight, and I look forward to 1185 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,960 Speaker 1: seeing it because I'm not sure that Josh Rosen. While 1186 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 1: it's in the dolphins interests to play Josh Rosen a 1187 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 1: lot and start them and be able to evaluate him 1188 00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 1: as much as possible, I'm not sure that Ryan Fitzpatrick 1189 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 1: is going to be all cooperative about that. No, he's 1190 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 1: been through that before, right, He's lived that, He's lived 1191 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,640 Speaker 1: that story. He knows what that's like. Armando, Oh, do 1192 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 1: you think So let's put the tank concept aside and 1193 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: you say the Dolphins are gonna play Josh Rosen most 1194 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 1: likely as their starter. They're trying to win, right, They're 1195 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 1: trying to see what Josh Rosen has, But maybe Josh 1196 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 1: Rosen would give them the best chance of winning this year. Correct. 1197 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 1: You know, Well, if it's gotten to the point where 1198 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 1: it's kind of confused, yeah, I'm because, Well, think about this. So, 1199 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 1: on the one hand, the Dolphins, you know, they had 1200 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 1: a significant all time franchise history roster purge. They got 1201 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 1: rid of a lot of talent, a lot of starters, 1202 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 1: Frank Gore among those, by the way, who's now in Buffalo, 1203 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 1: and so we understood that to be what it was 1204 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 1: because they didn't replace any of those guys. By the way. 1205 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 1: In fact, right now, the Dolphins they don't have really 1206 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:35,919 Speaker 1: starting two starting edge rushers on the roster. So they 1207 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:39,920 Speaker 1: have that, and then they go out and get Josh 1208 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 1: Rosen and the idea is Josh Rosen might be our 1209 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:48,880 Speaker 1: franchise quarterbacks. So that suggests the tank is off, except 1210 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 1: that Josh Rosen is the guy that led Arizona to 1211 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 1: the number one overall pick in the draft well this year. 1212 00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know what to tell you. They're playing 1213 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: three D chess and I'm down here with my checkerboard 1214 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,880 Speaker 1: or I don't know what's going on, but either they're 1215 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 1: gonna be okay or they're gonna think. Either way they 1216 01:00:12,840 --> 01:00:18,160 Speaker 1: come out ahead. For real, Armando, here's the here's the 1217 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 1: real question that that that really needs to be answered 1218 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 1: I and I get the feeling it's gonna be kind 1219 01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:28,360 Speaker 1: of a gray area question. The answer that comes through, 1220 01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 1: how good does Josh Rosen have to be for them 1221 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:33,680 Speaker 1: to say, wow, you know what, he's got a chance 1222 01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 1: or you know, I mean, he's got to play extremely 1223 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 1: well with a bad roster in Miami or just okay 1224 01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 1: or is you know, that's the big question, correct, I mean, 1225 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: how good do you expect him to be even if 1226 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:49,280 Speaker 1: he was the guy with a team like Miami? And 1227 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,479 Speaker 1: are they going to be able to recognize that if 1228 01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 1: they can't support him. You're on a roll, brother, with 1229 01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 1: all these great questions, because this has been something that's 1230 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 1: been on in my head. Everybody thinks, well, he's either 1231 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:08,560 Speaker 1: going to be terrible or he's gonna be great, and right, 1232 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 1: the chances are more likely that he's gonna be somewhere 1233 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: in between. And at the end of the year, we 1234 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 1: don't know what they got, and worse off for the 1235 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Dolphins and better for the rest of the afcast. They 1236 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 1: you know, they don't know what they got. And so 1237 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:29,640 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, they just spend seven years trying to figure 1238 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: out whether Ryan Tannehill was their quarterback or not. They're 1239 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 1: gonna have a significant question at the end of the year. 1240 01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: My guests, and this is a guest from thirty thousand 1241 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 1: feet and a year away, my guess is, if it's 1242 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:49,640 Speaker 1: not a certainty that Josh Rosen is good, the Miami 1243 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 1: Dolphins will be trying to draft a quarterback next year 1244 01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 1: in the draft. If it's a certainty, then you know, 1245 01:01:56,200 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 1: onward they go. But anything short of that, they're picking 1246 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback. How much is this is dictated by their 1247 01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 1: investment in him. They got him for less than a 1248 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,520 Speaker 1: number ten overall pick. What did the Miami dolpon? What 1249 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 1: do the Miami Dolphins have invested in Josh Rosen that 1250 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 1: they would, you know, kind of hang tough with him 1251 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,800 Speaker 1: if he shows a little bit of promise. What's their investment? Well, 1252 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 1: it's not huge. I mean, it is significant if you're 1253 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 1: talking draft pick, because they gave up a second round 1254 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 1: pick and they gave up a fifth round pick next year. 1255 01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 1: So that's not anything to sneeze at. But as far 1256 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 1: as money and salary cap, Josh Rosen's entire salary the 1257 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:42,360 Speaker 1: next three years will amount to six million dollars. That's 1258 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:46,640 Speaker 1: backup kind of you know bucks, because Arizona absorbs all 1259 01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 1: the guaranteed money, so they can conceivably keep him on 1260 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: the rockter as a backup, assuming you know, he's okay 1261 01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:57,920 Speaker 1: with that, assuming it's not going to be a problem. 1262 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 1: So from from a compensation to the players standpoint, they 1263 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 1: can keep him and go forward. It's not it's not 1264 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 1: an issue. Hey, I got a couple of other quick 1265 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 1: Dolphins questions for you, Armando. And that's a Miami's first pick, 1266 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:17,320 Speaker 1: Christian Wilkins, the defensive tackle from Clemson. What do you 1267 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:18,800 Speaker 1: make of that pick? How did you like? That pick? 1268 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,919 Speaker 1: Is a good pick? So the you know, I mean, 1269 01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:26,320 Speaker 1: no one that I've ever talked to in the last 1270 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 1: three four days said this is a bad pick. Nobody. 1271 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:33,960 Speaker 1: The question is, if you're picking a guy thirteenth overall, 1272 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 1: are you going to get a good player or are 1273 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 1: you going to get a great player? Because the Dolphins 1274 01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 1: need a great player. They need him to be Vince Volport. 1275 01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 1: They need him to be you know, Geno Atkins or 1276 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 1: someone of that Ilker. A good player just basically doesn't 1277 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:58,080 Speaker 1: change the arc of the of the franchise. It just 1278 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 1: keeps us in the same situations. The thing with the 1279 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 1: Dolphins is look at their roster. Who would you say 1280 01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:13,400 Speaker 1: is a cornerstone, game changing guy. The Buffalo Bills have 1281 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:17,080 Speaker 1: had a lot of those, and they potentially have another 1282 01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:26,040 Speaker 1: one of those at quarterback the Miami Dolphins. I'm looking, yeah, 1283 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 1: I know, yeah, I don't see Dan Marino. I don't 1284 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 1: see a guy that can you know, put change the 1285 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:35,600 Speaker 1: course of a game. I'm not talking about a season 1286 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 1: a game. Who is their big sack guy, who is 1287 01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 1: their huge playmaker, who's their Lashawn McCoy? You know, can 1288 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 1: safety make a difference? Because because I really like make 1289 01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:51,040 Speaker 1: a Fitzpatrick a lot, but a safety right, well, I 1290 01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:54,000 Speaker 1: mean a safety can make a difference, There's no doubt 1291 01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:56,320 Speaker 1: about it. I mean Ed Reid made a difference. But 1292 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 1: the point is there aren't too many ed Reids and 1293 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:02,640 Speaker 1: Minka to ask him to be that in his second year, 1294 01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 1: that's that's you know, I would that's a hard bet 1295 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, Armando, one last thing for me, um, 1296 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 1: I just want to ask you. I mean, what's what's 1297 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:20,400 Speaker 1: your gut feeling about the Dolphins ability? Uh? Either with 1298 01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick or Josh Rosen with a brand new head coach, 1299 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,520 Speaker 1: a brand new coaching staff. You know, what do you think? 1300 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:31,400 Speaker 1: Uh Flores and what's his vibe coming out of there? 1301 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:33,920 Speaker 1: What do you what's your gut feeling about his program 1302 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 1: that he's trying to install. And with all that's gone 1303 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,720 Speaker 1: on with Josh Rosen and all this, we kind of 1304 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 1: forget they've got a new head coach, right, They've got 1305 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,200 Speaker 1: a new head coach, They've got a new quote unquote culture. 1306 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,000 Speaker 1: Uh my, My vibe on him is he's you know, 1307 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: he's a no nonsense guy. He's a leader. He's a 1308 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 1: guy that came up the hard way, both in life 1309 01:05:54,960 --> 01:06:00,880 Speaker 1: and through the coaching ranks. And so I am betting 1310 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 1: that he likes a certain kind of player who isn't entitled, 1311 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 1: who isn't um you know, kind of like Lucy Goosey. 1312 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 1: He likes his guys buttoned up and ready to work, 1313 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: and he likes them smart. Now, asked me if that's 1314 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:23,080 Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins roster right now. Not so much. This 1315 01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 1: is a project. This is gonna take a few years. 1316 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 1: And I don't see this team, you know, factoring in 1317 01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 1: the AFC East this year. But and the draft didn't 1318 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 1: change that one one iota, and the rest of the 1319 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:41,800 Speaker 1: offseason is not going to change it one iota. They 1320 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 1: have significant needs and significant holes at right tackle, at 1321 01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,840 Speaker 1: right guards that need an edge rusher, starter like to 1322 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:55,480 Speaker 1: field a defense. You know, they don't have that. They 1323 01:06:55,640 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 1: lack a cornerback, a boundary corner. So these are things 1324 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,640 Speaker 1: and we're talking we don't know what they are at quarterback. 1325 01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 1: These are not hidable positions. Tackle, corner, edge rusher, those 1326 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 1: are the and and you know, did I mentioned quarterback. 1327 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: They're premium positions. You can't win unless you have an 1328 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:21,640 Speaker 1: answer at those spots. Dolphins don't have an answer yet. 1329 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:24,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna keep coming back here for some of those answers, Armando, 1330 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 1: over the next several months. Thank you for joining us today. 1331 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 1: We really appreciate it, all right, man, It's always my pleasure. 1332 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 1: Thank you. Armando Sargaro, Dolphins reporter and columnists for the 1333 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:36,840 Speaker 1: Miami Herald, the NFL Inside of Her Radio dot Com. 1334 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 1: Discovered the Dolphins since nineteen ninety. He jumped. He's right, 1335 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:43,480 Speaker 1: I am confused now what the plan is down there 1336 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 1: at quarterback. I'm anticipating Josh Rosen will be the starter 1337 01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 1: tenth overall pick, although, as he points out in one 1338 01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 1: of his columns I read over the weekend, the Dolphins 1339 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 1: passed down him last year. Right, the Dolphins had a 1340 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 1: chance to get Josh Rosen a year ago, didn't didn't jump? 1341 01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: I think, well, yeah, I think two. It's almost and 1342 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 1: I feel Josh Rosen, who has handled this whole situation beautifully, 1343 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:07,280 Speaker 1: he's almost set up to fail. He's really got to 1344 01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 1: hit a home run for the Dolphins to say wow, okay, yeah, 1345 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:14,400 Speaker 1: Let's not take two a tag of aaloa out of 1346 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:17,320 Speaker 1: Alabama for this. Let's not take Jake from out of Georgia, 1347 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:20,759 Speaker 1: or Justin Habert Herbert out of Oregon, or Jacob Easton 1348 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,320 Speaker 1: out of Washington. These quarterbacks that are coming out in 1349 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 1: the draft next year, Let's not take any of those guys. 1350 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 1: Let's sit tight and start to start to build around 1351 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 1: this young guy. How good is he gonna have to play? When? 1352 01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:35,320 Speaker 1: And Bill's fans know it, He's gonna be thrown to 1353 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 1: Davante Parker, Kenny Stills, he's gonna be with Kenyon Drake 1354 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 1: in the backfield, he's gonna have Mike Gasecki at their 1355 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:47,519 Speaker 1: tight end spot, all these guys in Miami who you know, 1356 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 1: we kind of know him, but you know, are we 1357 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: afraid of those guys? And it's the team that the 1358 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 1: Bills hung forty two points on it the last week 1359 01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 1: seventeen last season, and that's when they had n Dominan 1360 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,759 Speaker 1: sue who's a free who's now not on that team. No, yeah, 1361 01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:06,280 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of yeah no, and Domick consue 1362 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:08,680 Speaker 1: was with the Rams last year. That's right, But this 1363 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 1: is a roster and the reason I bring him up 1364 01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,599 Speaker 1: is this part of the purging that Miami has done 1365 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 1: over the last few things. Jayagi was on that team 1366 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 1: for a minute, Jarvis Landry was on that team for 1367 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: a minute. Now all these guys are gone and domic 1368 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 1: Con sue Landry a gi. They've purged that roster. And now, 1369 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:29,719 Speaker 1: in order to be successful, this guy, Josh Rosen after 1370 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 1: a horrible year in or a rough year in Arizona. 1371 01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 1: I just you know, he's set up to fail. I mean, 1372 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. He's just set up to fail. 1373 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:44,120 Speaker 1: And I feel bad for him. I feel bad for him. 1374 01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:46,440 Speaker 1: And by the way, I think I misspoke. The Dolphins 1375 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 1: took Minca Fitzpatrick with the eleventh pick, did they did? 1376 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:51,880 Speaker 1: They flipped with Arizona. Arizona took Josh Rosen with ten. 1377 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: I can't remember. The point was it wouldn't it would 1378 01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: not have taken much of The Dolphins were interested in 1379 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:57,920 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen a year ago. It was the eighteenth pick. 1380 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 1: I think who was last year? Looking at the dress here, 1381 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 1: he's a first round pick in the year eight team. 1382 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, yeah, they had a chance last year. Look, 1383 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: I don't see how ow it's a bad thing for 1384 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, And I don't believe in the concept of 1385 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:15,639 Speaker 1: tanking intentionally trying to lose, and so I don't see 1386 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:17,080 Speaker 1: how it's a bad thing for the Dolphins to get 1387 01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:20,040 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen. I think he's probably got something to offer. 1388 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,559 Speaker 1: He's gonna get a chance, he's gonna get a really 1389 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:24,720 Speaker 1: a second chance. And here here's some sound for him. 1390 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 1: In a minute. He talks about that a second chance 1391 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,559 Speaker 1: to make a first impression in the NFL. That doesn't 1392 01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:32,880 Speaker 1: come often. And Armando is right about the fact that 1393 01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 1: here's a guy that was rejected by the team that 1394 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:39,840 Speaker 1: chose him tenth overall a year ago. But it's almost like, 1395 01:10:40,640 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 1: if the Cardinals had not been so interested in Kyler Murray, 1396 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,000 Speaker 1: they would have stayed with Josh Rosen, right, they would 1397 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 1: have known that everybody else knows that they didn't have 1398 01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 1: any good talent around Josh Rosen Arizona I'm talking about, 1399 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 1: and let's surround him with talent and see what we got. 1400 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:55,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just kind of weird circumstances that 1401 01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: led Arizona to let him go. I don't think it 1402 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,080 Speaker 1: was as much that Rosen was a failure year, but 1403 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 1: as much as it was at the Cardinals switch coaches 1404 01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 1: and they had a coach who was interested in Kyler Murray. 1405 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:08,879 Speaker 1: I believe that. Yeah, I think I read for Football 1406 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 1: Morning America from Peter King. He wrote about the Cardinals 1407 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,559 Speaker 1: at great length and what the process was of getting 1408 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: the Kyler Murray and Steve Kine, the general manager of Arizona, said, 1409 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 1: and it was not. He had not even started watching 1410 01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:23,000 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray tape until after the end of the regular season, 1411 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 1: up into January and February. So they were gonna stick 1412 01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 1: with Josh Rosen even after Cliff Kingsbury was hired. And 1413 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,559 Speaker 1: Kingsbury said, because I never had the juice to go 1414 01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:37,240 Speaker 1: in there and say, hey, listen, I want Kyler Murray. 1415 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 1: I want Kyler Murray. But when Kimes started watching the 1416 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,400 Speaker 1: film of Kyler Murray at Oklahoma in that offense running 1417 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 1: the way he did is a Heisman Trophy winner. I mean, 1418 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:49,760 Speaker 1: he had a great season. With the first pick of 1419 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 1: the draft, Arizona could sit there and say, you know what, 1420 01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 1: I like that prospect better than the one I watched 1421 01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 1: play here for sixteen years. You know, through the offseason 1422 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,719 Speaker 1: and regular season last year, I like this Kyler Murray 1423 01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:03,679 Speaker 1: and his upside better than I like Josh Rosen's upside. 1424 01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:06,679 Speaker 1: You can say that, Steve Kin. Yeah, he can also 1425 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:09,200 Speaker 1: say I want to do what our head coach wants, right. 1426 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:14,000 Speaker 1: And the simple fact the matter was from what from 1427 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,599 Speaker 1: the what I read in the article, Kingsbury said, Listen, 1428 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:19,160 Speaker 1: I I'm i'm you give me the best players you 1429 01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:21,800 Speaker 1: can possibly give me. I'll make the best of those players. 1430 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 1: He did not pound on the table for Kyler Murray. 1431 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 1: But I don't think there's any question that whole organization 1432 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:29,640 Speaker 1: was in on Kyler Murray when they decided that's what 1433 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 1: they were going to absolute. I mean, but but it 1434 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,360 Speaker 1: was never again, I'm the point is they think he's 1435 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 1: better Josh Rosen, and that's why they made the move. 1436 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:40,200 Speaker 1: That's the only reason they made the move. Hey, we're 1437 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 1: not doing a dolphin show. But there were a couple 1438 01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:44,639 Speaker 1: of comments from Josh Rosen meeting the media in Miami 1439 01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:46,639 Speaker 1: yesterday that we want to play for you. We will 1440 01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:48,479 Speaker 1: do that right after the break. And then get back 1441 01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:50,519 Speaker 1: to Bill's talk, in particular to talk about the Bills 1442 01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 1: draft and what's missing now?

We got our 1455 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:44,320 Speaker 1: own definition and one and done. Our Twitter poll today 1456 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:46,800 Speaker 1: is interesting. Get a lot of takes on this after 1457 01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. What's the biggest personnel need for the 1458 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,560 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills On the Twitter poll with more than a 1459 01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 1: thousand votes in right now, it's very close. It's really 1460 01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,840 Speaker 1: close between edge rusher and wide receiver. Forty three percent 1461 01:13:57,920 --> 01:13:59,960 Speaker 1: say edge Rusher is the number one person on the 1462 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,320 Speaker 1: remaining for the Buffalo Bills, forty two percent say wide receiver, 1463 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:06,439 Speaker 1: nine percent say tight end, six percent say something else. 1464 01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 1: We'll get back to that in a moment. We want 1465 01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:10,160 Speaker 1: to kind of finish up with Josh Rosen, who I 1466 01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:14,320 Speaker 1: think the old Josh Rosen question is extremely interesting Steve 1467 01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 1: and the Bills. Obviously, with the division rivalry, the Dolphins 1468 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 1: get a chance to play Josh Rosen or Ryan Fitzpatrick 1469 01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:24,200 Speaker 1: a couple of times, including a Week one, two, three, four, five, six, 1470 01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:27,640 Speaker 1: Game six, Miami's here and then Miami. They go to 1471 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: Miami middle of November. But Rosen did an interesting news 1472 01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 1: conference yesterday, first day the Dolphins at their offseason conditioning program. 1473 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:37,160 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen basically was asked how the trade went down 1474 01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 1: for him, what his take was on the trade from 1475 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:43,559 Speaker 1: Arizona to the Dolphins. Here's what he said. It felt 1476 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:48,720 Speaker 1: like I got drafted twice. I mean it was. They 1477 01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:51,200 Speaker 1: actually called me from like their draft rooms. So I 1478 01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 1: talked so like like head coach like Jane, head coach 1479 01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:57,080 Speaker 1: Cordinad and Justice as if you're I was like actually 1480 01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 1: normally drafted. But I was just backing my place. Anari 1481 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:04,719 Speaker 1: had some buddies was hanging out and yeah, just normal. 1482 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:08,360 Speaker 1: I mean, so it happened. It's just kind of another opportunity. 1483 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:10,559 Speaker 1: Very rarely do you get a second chance to make 1484 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:14,000 Speaker 1: a first impression. So, um, trying to get off to 1485 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:15,880 Speaker 1: the right foot. Um, with all these guys here and 1486 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,759 Speaker 1: meet all my teammates, try and break down this playbook 1487 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:22,639 Speaker 1: as quickly as you can. Um. And uh, like I said, 1488 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,400 Speaker 1: just get off to the right foot. So in the 1489 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:27,760 Speaker 1: playbook is interesting because I would think now this would 1490 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:32,559 Speaker 1: be the third different playbook, third different system he's had. Right. Actually, 1491 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:34,280 Speaker 1: they fought you their offensive coordinator in the middle of 1492 01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 1: the year. I don't know how much their offense change 1493 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:41,040 Speaker 1: last year's about this year's Arizona offense that he's worked 1494 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:42,880 Speaker 1: with for at least a month and a half, maybe longer, 1495 01:15:42,880 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 1: And now he's got to do offense. Yeah, but they 1496 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:46,720 Speaker 1: probably weren't doing too much in the you know, well, 1497 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 1: I guess they probably were. Actually they're probably doing it 1498 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:50,880 Speaker 1: like the bills are doing it. They're trying to install 1499 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:55,960 Speaker 1: stuff on paper and yeah, we haven't run through anything. 1500 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:59,559 Speaker 1: But young guy, yeah, young guy. Yeah, he's his head's 1501 01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,160 Speaker 1: probably spending a little bit. Um. It'll be interesting to 1502 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 1: see when and I couldn't even tell you who the 1503 01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:07,639 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator is in Miami right at the present moment. 1504 01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:10,559 Speaker 1: Let me go see if I can find that out. 1505 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 1: But it's uh yeah, he's he really handled it well, 1506 01:16:15,240 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 1: no question. It's a really difficult situation for him to 1507 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 1: handle it being considered what Uh No, I don't know. 1508 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:25,719 Speaker 1: You can't say he was a he was a bust. 1509 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:29,439 Speaker 1: He just wasn't successful on a bad team, which you know, 1510 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:31,600 Speaker 1: welcome to the club. There's a you know, everybody in 1511 01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:33,240 Speaker 1: the league can say that who didn't win the Super 1512 01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 1: Bowl to a certain extent. But it's good that he's 1513 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna get another chance. But man, oh man, I, um, 1514 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:46,280 Speaker 1: you know you kind of hanging out with your that's 1515 01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 1: that's a tough tough phone call when you know it's coming, 1516 01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 1: you don't know what's coming. And then to you know, 1517 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: he handled it great. I gotta he handled it really 1518 01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,960 Speaker 1: really great. Former Patriots wide receivers coach Chad o'sheay, is 1519 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 1: the Dolphins offensive or I just looked at up. I 1520 01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,640 Speaker 1: did not know that either. Um. The other thing from 1521 01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen, and this goes to Armando saw Garo's point 1522 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 1: about proving it, proving he can be a starter getting 1523 01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:12,960 Speaker 1: a second chance to do it, and Josh Rosen was asked, 1524 01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:14,439 Speaker 1: is this, in fact a prove a year for you 1525 01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:19,439 Speaker 1: in your NFL career? I think a regardless of situation, 1526 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 1: I think you gotta have the mentality that you're trying 1527 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 1: it every single day. I think you hear quotes from 1528 01:17:25,439 --> 01:17:27,840 Speaker 1: from the goats like Tom and Peyton and on all 1529 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 1: of them, and they're saying that every year someone's trying 1530 01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 1: to come in and replace them thereative. Even if they're not, 1531 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,000 Speaker 1: they try to act like they are every single day. 1532 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,840 Speaker 1: They try to earn the respect of their teammates, which 1533 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:41,479 Speaker 1: they already have. Every single day they try to earn 1534 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 1: the praise of their coaches, which they already have. So 1535 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:46,120 Speaker 1: I think, whether that's true or not, I'm going to 1536 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:48,479 Speaker 1: have that kind of mindset, like it's my job every day, 1537 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 1: every hour, and every minute to prove that I'm the guy. 1538 01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:53,479 Speaker 1: Really thought that you would have a ship on your 1539 01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 1: shoulder given everything that was said about you and how 1540 01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:59,439 Speaker 1: to slash you to band be suspected and motivated. Josh, 1541 01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:01,920 Speaker 1: I don't think my chip's got to grow anymore. I 1542 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:06,240 Speaker 1: might tip over a lot of chip on his shoulder 1543 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 1: might tip him over. Yeah, that's all the right answers 1544 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:14,680 Speaker 1: exactly doesn't matter. M And with Ryan Fitzpatrick, I mean, 1545 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:20,200 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick goes to the bench. Um, probably I think 1546 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen comes in as the starter. Don't you think 1547 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 1: I do? I do? There's no I love fitz I oh, 1548 01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:29,960 Speaker 1: I'd take a backseat to no one in my admiration 1549 01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:33,879 Speaker 1: and genuine affection for Ryan Fitzpatrick. Put there's no upside 1550 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 1: and making him your starting quarterback at Miami. They've got 1551 01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:39,479 Speaker 1: to fo Yeah, they've got to find out about Josh Rosen. 1552 01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:44,439 Speaker 1: They're not I would say that Armando Salguero probably said, 1553 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:46,479 Speaker 1: you know, he said they're gonna compete. They ain't gonna compete. 1554 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:50,320 Speaker 1: They're not gonna have a competition. Josh Rosen gets plugged 1555 01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 1: in day one, that's just done. You got to find 1556 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:54,800 Speaker 1: out about him, and you're gonna, you know, sink or 1557 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:56,880 Speaker 1: swim with him this season and be willing to do 1558 01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:59,599 Speaker 1: it with a new head coach, new staff, new offensive system. 1559 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,280 Speaker 1: You know, Fitzpatrick, you know what you've got there. We 1560 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 1: all know that. Everybody in the National Football you've seen 1561 01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 1: we're in Fitzpatrick play. It's is sixth teams, So you know, 1562 01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:13,639 Speaker 1: we know what he is. Tremendous, he's got more kids 1563 01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:18,599 Speaker 1: than he ass teams, tremendous teammate, tremendous backup quarterback. Will 1564 01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:23,120 Speaker 1: give you some really solid, sometimes spectacular play as a backup. 1565 01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:28,519 Speaker 1: But he's not gonna be your franchise guy. In fact, 1566 01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 1: he may be. Yeah, yeah, So I don't think there's 1567 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,280 Speaker 1: gonna be any competition in Miami. One thing, Armando, So, 1568 01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:35,880 Speaker 1: I didn't want to get deep into it because we 1569 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:38,000 Speaker 1: got to move on from Josh Rosen. I do find 1570 01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 1: it fascinating, but Armando wrote that the idiot Dolphins gave 1571 01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 1: up a second rounder to get Josh Rosen. They should 1572 01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,000 Speaker 1: have waited until the third round. There were two picks 1573 01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:49,680 Speaker 1: away from the third round. They essentially gave up a 1574 01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:51,680 Speaker 1: third rounder, right closer to a third rounder than a 1575 01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:55,200 Speaker 1: buttified second rounder. You know whatever, that's what the that's 1576 01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:57,840 Speaker 1: what guys do. Let's talk about the Bills, right, We've 1577 01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,320 Speaker 1: done up with the Dolphins. You got anything more in 1578 01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:02,720 Speaker 1: the Dolphins? Now, listen, we're gonna get a belly full 1579 01:20:02,720 --> 01:20:04,760 Speaker 1: of them. We're gonna see him twice. We see him 1580 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:06,840 Speaker 1: in week seven and then you see him again in 1581 01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 1: week eleven a month later. So uh, we'll keep track 1582 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:13,559 Speaker 1: on keep track of them, and we're gonna find out 1583 01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:16,320 Speaker 1: how they do. They're gonna, I mean, they've got a 1584 01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:18,479 Speaker 1: more question marks in the Buffalo Bills do at this point? 1585 01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:21,360 Speaker 1: Sure do the Bills after the draft? What's their biggest 1586 01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 1: personnel remaining personnel need? The Twitter poll has edge Rush 1587 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:27,240 Speaker 1: wide receiver the top two. What do you think give 1588 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,800 Speaker 1: us a calle fifty toll free one eight eight five 1589 01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 1: fifty two five fifty from the tweet sheet. Wyatt responds 1590 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:36,040 Speaker 1: with this, I think it has to be wide receiver. 1591 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:38,640 Speaker 1: The addition of ed Oliver should get the outside a 1592 01:20:38,680 --> 01:20:42,320 Speaker 1: little more pressure. Yeah, okay, I like the additions of 1593 01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:45,800 Speaker 1: the wide receiver room referring to free agency, I think 1594 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:47,840 Speaker 1: and the O line. But we need to surround Ellen 1595 01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,560 Speaker 1: with as many receiving weapons as possible now right, And 1596 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 1: I think that's where the disappointment comes from from some 1597 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,000 Speaker 1: Bills fans. Yeah, absolutely, the weapon. We're surprised, I mean 1598 01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,760 Speaker 1: we're surprised he didn't take at least one, and you know, 1599 01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 1: down to the fourth, fifth, and sixth and seventh rounds 1600 01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,160 Speaker 1: you think, who cares it's gonna be a flyer anywhere 1601 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:05,920 Speaker 1: for the guy. Remember last year they had Ray, Ray 1602 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 1: McLeod and Austin Prole, and you know Austin Prole couldn't 1603 01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:12,040 Speaker 1: make the team, and this is it's kind of like 1604 01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:15,800 Speaker 1: seventh round or would give somebody a chance, but it 1605 01:21:17,760 --> 01:21:19,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think that was the biggest thing. 1606 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 1: It just was a surprise that there was not a 1607 01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:23,920 Speaker 1: receiver good enough at any point that where they picked 1608 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 1: to take one. I think that's and we said it 1609 01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,880 Speaker 1: yesterday all day. What discipline it takes not to just say, 1610 01:21:30,880 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: you know what, we just need we gotta get one 1611 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:34,559 Speaker 1: right and just to say forget it, we're not taking 1612 01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:36,760 Speaker 1: this guy. We're taking this between a fan or a 1613 01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:39,200 Speaker 1: person like me and the guy who actually pulls the 1614 01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:41,240 Speaker 1: names off the board, not only pulls the names off, 1615 01:21:41,320 --> 01:21:44,200 Speaker 1: but doesn't in the best way possible, no matter what's 1616 01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 1: up there. Right, all right, Yet, let's go from Chack 1617 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:49,400 Speaker 1: from the Twitter Twitter sheet, this is a tough one. 1618 01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:52,639 Speaker 1: I went wide receiver just because after Brown and Beasley, 1619 01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:57,000 Speaker 1: we really don't have anyone anyone proven guys. Foster came 1620 01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:59,320 Speaker 1: on last year's they continues to develop. So there's hope, 1621 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:03,080 Speaker 1: but not a tone of size, and no one looks 1622 01:22:03,160 --> 01:22:05,679 Speaker 1: like a true X wide receiver right now. I'm excited 1623 01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:11,680 Speaker 1: to see what Sills can do as well. So uh yeah, this, uh, 1624 01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:19,600 Speaker 1: the rookie free agent David Sills fifth West Rona is 1625 01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:24,800 Speaker 1: kind of cool. That's we'll see fifth wide receiver Chad, 1626 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,559 Speaker 1: Chad and too, he might be practice squad. That's okay, yeah, 1627 01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 1: chat in Tonnawanda on the line, Hello, Chad, how are 1628 01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:37,120 Speaker 1: you good? Yeah? I uh, it was all over the 1629 01:22:37,200 --> 01:22:39,880 Speaker 1: Sills thing too. It's like I heard that they picked 1630 01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:45,400 Speaker 1: him up and really liked the pick. I mean, what 1631 01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 1: did you watch him in West Virginia, Chad. I saw 1632 01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: a lot of coverage after after the pick. My friend 1633 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 1: of mine saw that and and said, oh, we got 1634 01:22:55,680 --> 01:23:00,040 Speaker 1: this David Sills. And you know, I uh I I 1635 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:01,800 Speaker 1: don't like to pick up after the fact. You know, 1636 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:06,639 Speaker 1: what does he have to do to make the roster? Well, 1637 01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:09,599 Speaker 1: I mean, you got a big target, you got Josh Allen. 1638 01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:12,479 Speaker 1: You know he's gonna he's gonna have somebody that's gonna 1639 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,559 Speaker 1: run down the field and they have somebody to throw 1640 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:20,160 Speaker 1: to at least, you know. I mean the the the 1641 01:23:20,360 --> 01:23:24,000 Speaker 1: tight ends are great pickups. Uh. I didn't think they 1642 01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:27,880 Speaker 1: needed too, but you know, to take to take one 1643 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:31,479 Speaker 1: and and then take a wide receiver after the fact 1644 01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 1: is a is a great pickup. I think. Okay, thanks. 1645 01:23:35,800 --> 01:23:37,880 Speaker 1: You know, I would have thought, you know, with with 1646 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 1: the Buffalo, with the ub thing, they could have took 1647 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 1: the quarterback and wide receiver. But it just didn't happen. No, 1648 01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:49,040 Speaker 1: and Anthony Johnson of course went to the Bucks not drafted. Um, 1649 01:23:49,320 --> 01:23:52,320 Speaker 1: and we've got Tyree Jackson coming here. Thanks for your call, 1650 01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 1: ched good talking to me that. Let's go to Steve 1651 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:58,200 Speaker 1: and Alabama. Hello, Steve, Hey John Steve, how you guys 1652 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 1: doing doing well? Thanks for calling. Yeah, you know, I 1653 01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:04,680 Speaker 1: had my little Mikeshift war room here, you know, Friday night, 1654 01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:07,840 Speaker 1: and I saw the Bills trade up, and I was 1655 01:24:07,960 --> 01:24:11,599 Speaker 1: expecting Jay Sternberger. Got to see him playing a lot. 1656 01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 1: I think it's A and M and I thought he 1657 01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:16,680 Speaker 1: was a playmaker and just really flash. But you know, 1658 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:20,560 Speaker 1: once again, going going back to the receiver situation, I 1659 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,000 Speaker 1: just I want to interrupt just for a second. I 1660 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 1: think Sternberger, Um, well, no, I was wrong. I thought 1661 01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 1: he went before Devin Singletary. He went right after Devin 1662 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: Singletary right after Yeah, all right, all right, go ahead. 1663 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry he was no no problem. M looking at 1664 01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 1: looking at the receiver situation. I'm a little more glass 1665 01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 1: half full on this situation because if you look so, 1666 01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:43,880 Speaker 1: let's say we are in a three wide set and 1667 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:47,640 Speaker 1: assuming that John Brown and Cold Easley are going to 1668 01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:50,360 Speaker 1: be starting, you know who's that third guy? Is a 1669 01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 1: za or is it Robert Foster? Yeah, that's a really 1670 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:55,920 Speaker 1: good question. Is it gonna or is it gonna be 1671 01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:58,880 Speaker 1: somebody else? Like depending on what you want to do. 1672 01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:01,840 Speaker 1: Isaiah McKenzie and speed guy or a bigger guy like 1673 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,120 Speaker 1: Duke Williams, who's got who's six three two twenty five? 1674 01:25:05,160 --> 01:25:07,960 Speaker 1: You got a bigger body? Uh, and you can dictate 1675 01:25:08,040 --> 01:25:11,080 Speaker 1: where you want to go. Zay Jones six two two hundred. Uh, 1676 01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:15,360 Speaker 1: Duke Williams six three two twenty five is significantly bigger. H. 1677 01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 1: Robert Foster's speed guy, John Brown speed guy. Uh. Cole 1678 01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 1: Beasley is a get open slot guy. Um. I've said 1679 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 1: this yesterday and Steve you can tell me what you 1680 01:25:25,040 --> 01:25:27,519 Speaker 1: think about this as well. The Bills have got a 1681 01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 1: boatload of speed. They can throw out on the field 1682 01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:34,680 Speaker 1: at any given moment. The question is is that going 1683 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:37,400 Speaker 1: to be enough? Because they don't have a you know, 1684 01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:40,880 Speaker 1: unless they put one of those guys out there, like 1685 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 1: one of these tight ends, or a guy like Duke 1686 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 1: Williams or Cam Phillips or Damari Scott, you know who 1687 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:48,639 Speaker 1: guys are at least six feet tall and two hundred pounds. 1688 01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:51,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna have a bunch of small guys out there. 1689 01:25:52,240 --> 01:25:54,679 Speaker 1: So are you ready to go with that? With three wides, 1690 01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 1: three small guys, and a and a tight end, that's 1691 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,920 Speaker 1: the question, kind And I really thought Jay Sternberger made 1692 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:04,400 Speaker 1: a lot of sense with that pick because he's really 1693 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:06,760 Speaker 1: like a tall receiver as much as he is. I 1694 01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 1: tied in, But I will say, being from here in Alabama, 1695 01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 1: when Duke Williams first guy to Auburn, I'm not going 1696 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:15,599 Speaker 1: to say he was thought of to be Julio Jalons tight. 1697 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,959 Speaker 1: But let me tell you, this guy was really talented 1698 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:21,000 Speaker 1: and high expectations and then he just ran into a 1699 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:24,799 Speaker 1: lot of off the field problems. But if Duke Williams 1700 01:26:24,920 --> 01:26:27,360 Speaker 1: pans out, well, he is going to answer and solve 1701 01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:30,479 Speaker 1: a lot of problems. Estafely. He led on situations and 1702 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 1: looked at his production and CFL was outstanding. If he 1703 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:38,320 Speaker 1: pans out and also seals that may answer that question 1704 01:26:38,400 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 1: with us having some size at wide receiver. What was 1705 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:43,519 Speaker 1: your impression? You guys had Duke Williams on the show 1706 01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:46,000 Speaker 1: a couple of Fridays ago, wouldn't Yeah, we had Duke 1707 01:26:46,080 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 1: Williams on. He sat down and he we asked him, 1708 01:26:48,880 --> 01:26:50,360 Speaker 1: you know what he what he got out of the 1709 01:26:50,439 --> 01:26:52,200 Speaker 1: CFL and he said, he gave me a chance to 1710 01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:55,160 Speaker 1: grow up. I mean, he admittedly embraced his past and 1711 01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,000 Speaker 1: he had some issues off the field. He was a 1712 01:26:57,000 --> 01:26:59,600 Speaker 1: little bit entitled. He was He didn't work hard at it. 1713 01:26:59,640 --> 01:27:02,120 Speaker 1: He didn't understand what it was was expected of him. 1714 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:03,880 Speaker 1: He didn't know how to work, you know, the way 1715 01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:06,759 Speaker 1: he wanted to work. Uh. And going to the CFL 1716 01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:09,840 Speaker 1: being up there, Uh, having to work for everything that 1717 01:27:09,960 --> 01:27:14,080 Speaker 1: he got, h making his own way in another country, 1718 01:27:14,640 --> 01:27:21,280 Speaker 1: you know. Uh. And it's he said, it really forced 1719 01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:23,560 Speaker 1: him to grow up and become his own man and 1720 01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:27,479 Speaker 1: be his own guy. Um that Having said that, that's 1721 01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:29,479 Speaker 1: exactly what you want to hear from a guy who 1722 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 1: went through what Duke Williams has been through. Um, he 1723 01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:36,120 Speaker 1: he had some things to learn about himself, how to 1724 01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:38,479 Speaker 1: work hard and how to be his own professional and 1725 01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,000 Speaker 1: take it upon himself and not you know, look for 1726 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:43,160 Speaker 1: somebody to do it for him or hand him things. 1727 01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:45,720 Speaker 1: It was so he said all the right things. And 1728 01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:48,920 Speaker 1: Steve from Alabama, the caller, you said, if he pans out, 1729 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,840 Speaker 1: he had a lot of upside when he was down there. 1730 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:55,760 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, maybe now is the time when he gets 1731 01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:57,559 Speaker 1: a chance to tap into that and become the guy 1732 01:27:57,640 --> 01:27:59,560 Speaker 1: with that you down there thought he was going to 1733 01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:01,720 Speaker 1: be early on which career? Would you agree? I guess 1734 01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:03,640 Speaker 1: I feel this way that it's an uphill climb for 1735 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:07,519 Speaker 1: a roster spot for Duke Williams here. Absolutely yeah, And 1736 01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:09,400 Speaker 1: I think he and I think the thing about it 1737 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:11,680 Speaker 1: is no question about it because you talk about it. 1738 01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 1: You've got three guys starting with starting with John Brown 1739 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:21,200 Speaker 1: and Cole Beasley. I mean, those are two guys that 1740 01:28:21,280 --> 01:28:23,800 Speaker 1: are probably at the top of the depth chart. Jones 1741 01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:26,320 Speaker 1: up there now, Zay Jones, who's going into his third 1742 01:28:26,400 --> 01:28:28,800 Speaker 1: year as a second round pick, who played well. Robert Foster, 1743 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 1: who flashed and really was the most exciting guy on 1744 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 1: the roster on the receiving roster last year, there's four 1745 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:37,639 Speaker 1: spots right there. You're gonna have five on game day 1746 01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 1: if the other guys can play special teams. If the 1747 01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:42,479 Speaker 1: bottom four and five guy, the fourth guy's got to 1748 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:44,960 Speaker 1: be a return guy maybe and the fifth guys or 1749 01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:46,880 Speaker 1: the fifth guy's got to be a return guy, and 1750 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:48,800 Speaker 1: then the fourth guy's gotta be a coverage guy or 1751 01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:50,519 Speaker 1: a helper on special teams. They got to do that. 1752 01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: So you know who who's gonna do that, as Duke 1753 01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:55,200 Speaker 1: William's gonna do that, is or any of these other names. 1754 01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:57,080 Speaker 1: You know, we don't talk about much as Andre Roberts, 1755 01:28:57,120 --> 01:29:00,640 Speaker 1: who's got a tremendous resume as it returns specialists and 1756 01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 1: would be in the wide receiving group. Is he number five, 1757 01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:07,040 Speaker 1: so he could be very easily. We never talked about 1758 01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:09,840 Speaker 1: Andre Roberts. We did when they first signed him unrestricted 1759 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:12,920 Speaker 1: free agent. Led the league right in returns for the 1760 01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,600 Speaker 1: Jets last year. We can't forget about him. He's a 1761 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:17,519 Speaker 1: ten year vet. Yeah, he knows what it takes to 1762 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:19,280 Speaker 1: stay on the roster. He's gonna do what it takes 1763 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:22,400 Speaker 1: to survive that roster hits as it is an uphill 1764 01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:24,600 Speaker 1: battle and it's an uphill battle for anybody off the 1765 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:27,240 Speaker 1: list that we just named those five guys. It's gonna 1766 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,160 Speaker 1: be really uphill. We got a break here. We're coming 1767 01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:31,360 Speaker 1: back with more One Bills Live from One Bills Drive 1768 01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:46,880 Speaker 1: presented by Kalida Health.

Yeah, 1794 01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:01,240 Speaker 1: we're coming out of the draft, and we spend what 1795 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:04,160 Speaker 1: months talking about the draft starting at the end of January, 1796 01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:07,120 Speaker 1: third week of January, the Senior Bowl and then um, 1797 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:09,680 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl is not about the draft, obviously, but 1798 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:11,920 Speaker 1: they run up to the combine, You do the combine, 1799 01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 1: you have Pro Days, and you think it's critical, right, 1800 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 1: what's going on? But people fall through the cracks a 1801 01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,479 Speaker 1: little bit. See. Yeah, there's two hundred and fifty six 1802 01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:21,280 Speaker 1: players I think this year drafted. I think that's the 1803 01:31:21,320 --> 01:31:23,560 Speaker 1: exact two hundred and fifty six players drafted and have 1804 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 1: a ton of guys show up at the Combine, but 1805 01:31:26,640 --> 01:31:29,599 Speaker 1: thirty three players were drafted by the NFL this year 1806 01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 1: who were not at the Combine, and one hundred and 1807 01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:36,280 Speaker 1: seventeen players who did go to the Combine did not 1808 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 1: get drafted. One hundred and seventeen players who were at 1809 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:42,439 Speaker 1: the Combine who did all the stuff on TV, they 1810 01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:45,040 Speaker 1: were on ESPN, they got all that gear, they didn't 1811 01:31:45,040 --> 01:31:47,280 Speaker 1: get drafted. You're mad about the gear, right, And no, 1812 01:31:47,400 --> 01:31:50,559 Speaker 1: I'm not mad about right exactly. And then and then 1813 01:31:50,640 --> 01:31:53,960 Speaker 1: thirty thirty guys, Yeah, thirty three guys who didn't get 1814 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:55,720 Speaker 1: invited to the Combine. Any think, wow, what chance do 1815 01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:58,040 Speaker 1: they have? Well, they got drafted. A ton of them 1816 01:31:58,080 --> 01:32:00,040 Speaker 1: got drafted. That's what That's the that's the state I 1817 01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:01,720 Speaker 1: was in. I was one of those thirty three guys. 1818 01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:03,839 Speaker 1: I didn't get Joe to the Combine and I got drafted, 1819 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:07,840 Speaker 1: and it's you know, we get caught up in how 1820 01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:11,559 Speaker 1: important that is and how they and your guy, I'm 1821 01:32:11,600 --> 01:32:14,000 Speaker 1: Sam calling him, You're a guy DK Metcalf who really 1822 01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 1: took the whole He grabbed everybody's attention at the Combine 1823 01:32:17,640 --> 01:32:20,320 Speaker 1: and continued to in the run up to the draft 1824 01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:24,400 Speaker 1: and fell down, fell down, found down, finally finally got 1825 01:32:24,520 --> 01:32:28,000 Speaker 1: taken late by the by the Seahawks, and it just happened. Guys, 1826 01:32:28,040 --> 01:32:30,720 Speaker 1: these guys ride a roller coaster round. Think about these 1827 01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:32,920 Speaker 1: young kids too, and I and these these thirty three 1828 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:35,040 Speaker 1: guys who were not invited to the combine and one 1829 01:32:35,120 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy team players who every kid that got 1830 01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:41,559 Speaker 1: drafted outside the first or second or third round, all 1831 01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:47,080 Speaker 1: these guys ride this enormous roller coaster right leading up 1832 01:32:47,080 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 1: to the draft. They don't know if they're actually gonna 1833 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:51,519 Speaker 1: get drafted. They don't know if how high they're gonna 1834 01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:54,040 Speaker 1: get drafted, They don't know, you know, which team's gonna 1835 01:32:54,120 --> 01:32:57,160 Speaker 1: draft him. They get these they have And we spoke 1836 01:32:57,200 --> 01:32:59,439 Speaker 1: to a Dawson Knox. He goes he had an informal 1837 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:01,519 Speaker 1: meeting with the Bills, a formal meeting with the Bills, 1838 01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 1: you know up here, visited up here, and it came 1839 01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:08,439 Speaker 1: down to the Bills traded up to get him, traded 1840 01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:11,759 Speaker 1: back into the third round to get him. So imagine 1841 01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:14,240 Speaker 1: the roller coaster these guys ride. I mean I I 1842 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 1: did it. I was on that ride for a long 1843 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:19,160 Speaker 1: time for you know, my draft time, and even as 1844 01:33:19,200 --> 01:33:24,760 Speaker 1: a player. It's emotionally it's crushing. Man, you're just exhausted 1845 01:33:24,960 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 1: from thinking about it. It's amazing. And if you don't 1846 01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 1: get drafted, oh my gosh, like Tyree Jackson and UB, 1847 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:33,120 Speaker 1: you mention that roller coaster ride, he's got to get 1848 01:33:33,160 --> 01:33:36,960 Speaker 1: himself ready to compete. Still, yeah, up here, and then 1849 01:33:37,080 --> 01:33:40,559 Speaker 1: there's that That brings up an entirely different conversation too, 1850 01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:43,560 Speaker 1: because Tyree Jackson's good player. Now, certainly he could have 1851 01:33:43,680 --> 01:33:46,800 Speaker 1: used obviously another year in college maybe to keep going, 1852 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 1: but he wanted to go to the NFL. Man, he 1853 01:33:48,640 --> 01:33:51,960 Speaker 1: wanted to declare for the draft. He had a good 1854 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 1: year at UB, they won a lot of games, and 1855 01:33:54,160 --> 01:33:55,640 Speaker 1: he just thought, you know what, that's gonna do it 1856 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 1: for me. I'm gonna be able to do it. Goes 1857 01:33:57,000 --> 01:33:59,479 Speaker 1: to the Combine, gets invited the Combine, then it doesn't 1858 01:33:59,479 --> 01:34:03,200 Speaker 1: get draft. Now he has no recourse. He has to 1859 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,720 Speaker 1: come out as a rookie free agent or start doing 1860 01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:09,640 Speaker 1: something else with his life because he can't go back 1861 01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:12,240 Speaker 1: and play at college. Even though he hasn't had until 1862 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:13,800 Speaker 1: the time he signs a contray, he had never made 1863 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:17,120 Speaker 1: a dime playing pro football and may still never make 1864 01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 1: another dime make playing pro football other than what he 1865 01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:22,360 Speaker 1: got to sign whatever contract the Bills gave him. That 1866 01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:24,800 Speaker 1: he's he can't go back and play it you be 1867 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 1: now and that I think that's a shame. But he 1868 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:32,240 Speaker 1: can't go back. Yeah, why couldn't he? I don't know 1869 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:33,920 Speaker 1: that's been going on. That's the way it is. I 1870 01:34:34,280 --> 01:34:36,439 Speaker 1: declare as a pro and that's a really good reason 1871 01:34:36,520 --> 01:34:38,000 Speaker 1: why he can because that's just the way it is. 1872 01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:40,639 Speaker 1: The NBA has I think a better system if that's 1873 01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:42,240 Speaker 1: what you're saying. Oh, it's exactly what. You can go 1874 01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:45,320 Speaker 1: and test your your you know how how you might 1875 01:34:45,360 --> 01:34:47,240 Speaker 1: be drafted, and you have certain deadlines. But once you 1876 01:34:47,320 --> 01:34:49,519 Speaker 1: declare to, once you hire an agent, and once you 1877 01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:53,559 Speaker 1: start getting paid, you can't well, once you get started 1878 01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:56,320 Speaker 1: getting paid. But once he wasn't drafted, he still wasn't paid. No, 1879 01:34:56,439 --> 01:34:58,360 Speaker 1: but maybe he signs with an agent and gets money 1880 01:34:58,400 --> 01:35:01,200 Speaker 1: to do workouts. I mean, I'm sure you know the 1881 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:05,760 Speaker 1: agent carried him for a while. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, you're wrong. 1882 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:07,840 Speaker 1: It's two o'clock or at the top of the air. 1883 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:09,400 Speaker 1: You want to open up that cannon where now, I 1884 01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:12,080 Speaker 1: don't I don't know.

Thank you very much for joining us. 1944 01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:08,280 Speaker 1: No anytime, guys, what's going on. I'm goad to be 1945 01:38:08,439 --> 01:38:11,080 Speaker 1: on hope. You two are doing well. We're doing well, 1946 01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:13,800 Speaker 1: and we were impressed, I think and encouraged by your 1947 01:38:13,960 --> 01:38:15,880 Speaker 1: rating of the draft you had. You gave the Bills 1948 01:38:16,280 --> 01:38:19,519 Speaker 1: a silver medal for their draft this past weekend. What 1949 01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:23,360 Speaker 1: did you see there? Yeah, well, I mean liberally, first off, 1950 01:38:23,439 --> 01:38:25,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just I'm a big fan of not 1951 01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:29,120 Speaker 1: only Sean McDermott, how he coaches the football team, the 1952 01:38:29,280 --> 01:38:32,439 Speaker 1: overall vision of the football team in general, Brandon Bean, 1953 01:38:32,600 --> 01:38:34,639 Speaker 1: some of the things that were done in free agency. 1954 01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:36,680 Speaker 1: I thought it was a phenomenal free agent period for 1955 01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:39,840 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. And then the draft. I mean, hey, 1956 01:38:39,960 --> 01:38:42,160 Speaker 1: it starts off with the first pick. As you guys know, 1957 01:38:42,320 --> 01:38:45,000 Speaker 1: this is no shock, but Ed Oliver certainly in the 1958 01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:48,000 Speaker 1: conversation for one of the three or four freakiest athletes 1959 01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:50,720 Speaker 1: and players in the draft this year, and a guy 1960 01:38:50,800 --> 01:38:52,960 Speaker 1: that I really think is gonna thrive in the Sean 1961 01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:56,439 Speaker 1: McDermott defensive system. You got a lot of big people 1962 01:38:56,479 --> 01:38:58,919 Speaker 1: in the interior defensive line now, you got a interior 1963 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:02,640 Speaker 1: defensive linement and Ed who's very Aaron Donald ish in 1964 01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:05,360 Speaker 1: his athletic movements, and he's a guy that can be 1965 01:39:05,479 --> 01:39:07,960 Speaker 1: a three technique defensive tackle and he can win that 1966 01:39:08,080 --> 01:39:10,599 Speaker 1: gap between a guard and to tackle, but also play 1967 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:13,360 Speaker 1: defensive end and be you know, very athletic for that 1968 01:39:13,479 --> 01:39:15,840 Speaker 1: position as well. Love that, of course, and I don't 1969 01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:18,599 Speaker 1: think anybody's not going to love that. But Cody Ford 1970 01:39:18,720 --> 01:39:22,200 Speaker 1: in round two. Cody Ford. And again not that I 1971 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:24,160 Speaker 1: have every answer in the world, the one thing you 1972 01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:25,680 Speaker 1: can count on with me is I'm going to do 1973 01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:28,040 Speaker 1: my homework and study these guard guys and watch a 1974 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:30,120 Speaker 1: lot of films. I thought Cody Ford was the best 1975 01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,679 Speaker 1: tackle in the draft. I really did. You know, maybe 1976 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:36,760 Speaker 1: not as athletic as Diller from Washington State or maybe 1977 01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:39,280 Speaker 1: a Juwan Taylor or some of the other guys that 1978 01:39:39,360 --> 01:39:43,439 Speaker 1: were in the conversation for tackle, but the athleticism wasn't 1979 01:39:43,640 --> 01:39:46,920 Speaker 1: that less than those guys. And what I like more 1980 01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:49,400 Speaker 1: of was the power and the ability to anchor verse 1981 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:51,720 Speaker 1: the power rush. Where I would look at some of 1982 01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,479 Speaker 1: those other guys and go, oh, I don't like how 1983 01:39:53,560 --> 01:39:56,320 Speaker 1: they handled the power rush and how are they gonna 1984 01:39:56,320 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 1: be able to handle the power rush when they got 1985 01:39:57,880 --> 01:39:59,680 Speaker 1: to play the Khalil Max of the world and the 1986 01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:02,120 Speaker 1: other good power rushers coming off the edge. So a 1987 01:40:02,280 --> 01:40:05,080 Speaker 1: huge fan of Cody Ford. And then a Devin Singletary 1988 01:40:05,120 --> 01:40:08,160 Speaker 1: who's awesome in space, third down running back into break 1989 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:12,960 Speaker 1: ankles like Lashawn McCoy. Gawson knocks a really good run 1990 01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:16,360 Speaker 1: blocking tight down tight end at an old miss. And 1991 01:40:16,479 --> 01:40:19,640 Speaker 1: then Voshan Joseph in the fifth round. I don't mean 1992 01:40:19,680 --> 01:40:22,840 Speaker 1: to ramble here, but I would argued he was the 1993 01:40:22,920 --> 01:40:26,280 Speaker 1: third best linebacker in the draft and a guy that 1994 01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:29,640 Speaker 1: is gonna be I think a major player, maybe not 1995 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:32,680 Speaker 1: in year one, but year two three for Buffalo. A 1996 01:40:32,720 --> 01:40:34,880 Speaker 1: guy that can stay on the field all three downs. 1997 01:40:34,960 --> 01:40:38,080 Speaker 1: Really athletic middle linebacking, ball hawking type of guy. So 1998 01:40:38,439 --> 01:40:41,120 Speaker 1: I really thought Buffalo killed it in the draft. Yeah, 1999 01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:44,080 Speaker 1: this Vashon Joseph, as you said, and I think you're 2000 01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:46,000 Speaker 1: right if he does he's a little rough, He's a 2001 01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:48,879 Speaker 1: great athlete, no question. He can go sideline to sideline. 2002 01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:51,360 Speaker 1: He seems to me like one of those guys. Perhaps 2003 01:40:51,439 --> 01:40:53,679 Speaker 1: in his first year we had the same thing happened 2004 01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:55,560 Speaker 1: with a draft pick a couple of years ago, and 2005 01:40:55,640 --> 01:40:58,880 Speaker 1: Matt Milano, who was a fifth round pick who all 2006 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:00,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden immersion just you know, he just had 2007 01:41:00,840 --> 01:41:02,719 Speaker 1: a nose for the football and was in the right spot, 2008 01:41:02,760 --> 01:41:05,320 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden he went from being an afterthought, 2009 01:41:05,400 --> 01:41:08,840 Speaker 1: maybe a role player on special teams too, evolving into 2010 01:41:08,920 --> 01:41:10,960 Speaker 1: this guy that is in the starting lineup. Is that 2011 01:41:11,080 --> 01:41:13,760 Speaker 1: kind of the track you think Vashan Joseph is going 2012 01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:18,400 Speaker 1: to take. I think that's very very similar track, exactly right. Yeah, 2013 01:41:18,439 --> 01:41:21,280 Speaker 1: he's a little raw, a little wild, you know, in Florida, 2014 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:23,720 Speaker 1: you know SEC football, he just got to play in 2015 01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:26,120 Speaker 1: the middle linebacker and they said go get the football. 2016 01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:29,639 Speaker 1: He wasn't always you know, gap integrity, sound, didn't always 2017 01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, take on lead blockers with the perfect shoulder. 2018 01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:35,120 Speaker 1: You know. Hey, yeah, some of those things he's gonna 2019 01:41:35,120 --> 01:41:37,080 Speaker 1: have to learn. And Sean McDermott of course will stand 2020 01:41:37,080 --> 01:41:39,479 Speaker 1: in as but but yeah, I think that's a very 2021 01:41:39,640 --> 01:41:43,799 Speaker 1: similar route we're gonna see Steve exactly like probably special teams, 2022 01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 1: probably get in and a few you know, first and 2023 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:49,719 Speaker 1: second downs here and there throughout the year, but grow 2024 01:41:49,800 --> 01:41:52,880 Speaker 1: as a player, learned the defensive system, and then by 2025 01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:55,680 Speaker 1: the time Matt Milano is going, hey, damn, I'm pretty good. 2026 01:41:55,680 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 1: I'd like to be paid more money. They're gonna go, okay, well, 2027 01:41:58,920 --> 01:42:00,760 Speaker 1: find you want more money. Oh we got another guy 2028 01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,439 Speaker 1: coming up the ranks here that we don't have to 2029 01:42:02,479 --> 01:42:04,920 Speaker 1: pay as much, So, you know, go on, Mat Malana 2030 01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:07,200 Speaker 1: or whatever it may be. They'll have the ability to 2031 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:10,600 Speaker 1: have decisions there. But I do think Joseph at the 2032 01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:13,760 Speaker 1: end of the day, maybe next year is going to 2033 01:42:13,840 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 1: be in the conversation for a starting linebacking spot for 2034 01:42:16,680 --> 01:42:18,920 Speaker 1: the Buffalo building Chris. The Bills are getting into their 2035 01:42:18,960 --> 01:42:21,320 Speaker 1: second year with Josh Allen. There are people who will 2036 01:42:21,360 --> 01:42:24,280 Speaker 1: tell you that this year's draft was a lot about 2037 01:42:24,360 --> 01:42:26,240 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. You know, when you look at Cody Forward 2038 01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,280 Speaker 1: and the running back end and the two tight ends 2039 01:42:28,360 --> 01:42:30,960 Speaker 1: later on that they're still trying to build around Josh Allen. 2040 01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 1: Do you see that? I do? I do. I think 2041 01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:36,280 Speaker 1: that was you know, the main focus of you know, 2042 01:42:36,479 --> 01:42:40,120 Speaker 1: free agency and of course the draft. The draft. You know, 2043 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:42,640 Speaker 1: you're getting a Cody Forward, who I think has a 2044 01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:45,600 Speaker 1: chance to be a franchise left tackle, you know, and 2045 01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:48,160 Speaker 1: then yeah, you know, getting a blocking tight end. But 2046 01:42:48,240 --> 01:42:52,120 Speaker 1: what they did in free agency too. With the slot receivers. Okay, 2047 01:42:52,240 --> 01:42:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, just whether that's Cole Beasley or John Brown, 2048 01:42:55,560 --> 01:42:57,880 Speaker 1: that's going to be perfect. You know. In the Brian 2049 01:42:57,960 --> 01:43:00,719 Speaker 1: day Ball New England offensive system, you know they're gonna 2050 01:43:00,720 --> 01:43:03,200 Speaker 1: be good. You know, getting a Tyler Crop, getting a 2051 01:43:03,280 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 1: Mitch Morse, Tye n Secki, a guy who I thought 2052 01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:08,679 Speaker 1: the starting tackle in the NFL, who's been a backup 2053 01:43:08,720 --> 01:43:10,960 Speaker 1: for the Washington Redskins for a few years. So I 2054 01:43:11,080 --> 01:43:13,759 Speaker 1: do think there was a concertative effort to give Josh 2055 01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:18,240 Speaker 1: Allen some help, not only with receivers but pass protection, 2056 01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:22,080 Speaker 1: because you guys saw it last year's they're a special 2057 01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:24,880 Speaker 1: and add Josh Allen. I'm just a believer. I always 2058 01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:27,200 Speaker 1: have been. I see it in his play and his 2059 01:43:27,400 --> 01:43:30,200 Speaker 1: movements and the way he throws the football. Yeah it's 2060 01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:33,160 Speaker 1: not perfect, but he can do a lot of things 2061 01:43:33,280 --> 01:43:35,400 Speaker 1: that a lot of other quarterbacks in football can't do. 2062 01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:38,200 Speaker 1: And I'd rather have that problem than vice versa. And 2063 01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:40,200 Speaker 1: I think they're on the right track with Josh Allen 2064 01:43:40,240 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 1: and this Buffalo offense altogether. Chris, we're on the line, 2065 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:45,240 Speaker 1: by the way, with Chris Sims from NBC Sports, we've 2066 01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:47,640 Speaker 1: been asking Bills fans today about what remains as a 2067 01:43:47,880 --> 01:43:50,160 Speaker 1: need for the Bills after the draft. A lot of 2068 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:52,840 Speaker 1: folks saying the receiver, and people point out that the 2069 01:43:52,880 --> 01:43:54,840 Speaker 1: Bills may not be able to point to a true 2070 01:43:55,120 --> 01:43:57,720 Speaker 1: X receiver and number one at least a candidate for 2071 01:43:57,760 --> 01:44:00,960 Speaker 1: a number one receiving spot. Two quite do you agree 2072 01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:03,360 Speaker 1: with that? And part two? How important is that? What 2073 01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:06,439 Speaker 1: do you think? Well, it's always important to have that guy, 2074 01:44:06,760 --> 01:44:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, for a quarterback that's let's just say, get 2075 01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:12,640 Speaker 1: out of jail free card, right like, Oh like, let 2076 01:44:12,920 --> 01:44:16,719 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski for Tom Brady went in doubt everybody's covered, 2077 01:44:16,800 --> 01:44:18,599 Speaker 1: Let me throw it to his spot and let Rob 2078 01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:21,200 Speaker 1: Gronkowski just go up and use his great ability to 2079 01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:24,439 Speaker 1: catch the football. Yeah, I get that there's no proven 2080 01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:27,280 Speaker 1: commodity as far as that's concerned on the Buffalo Bill's 2081 01:44:27,360 --> 01:44:30,760 Speaker 1: roster right there. But again, I think if I had 2082 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:32,840 Speaker 1: to read between the lions here a little bit, I 2083 01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:35,720 Speaker 1: think Sean McDermott and Brendan Bean are going, you know what, 2084 01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:37,920 Speaker 1: some of these guys on the outside we think have 2085 01:44:38,040 --> 01:44:40,400 Speaker 1: a chance to kind of be something. You know, Robert 2086 01:44:40,479 --> 01:44:44,760 Speaker 1: Foster showed some promise last year. Zay Jones showed some 2087 01:44:44,920 --> 01:44:47,240 Speaker 1: promise last year. I think they can do some different 2088 01:44:47,280 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 1: things for the offense. And you know, again, in the 2089 01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:53,800 Speaker 1: New England offense, it's not always about that. It's not 2090 01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:56,600 Speaker 1: always about you know, one on one matchups, let's do 2091 01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:59,479 Speaker 1: those type of things. It's more about we like well 2092 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:03,680 Speaker 1: rounded receivers. Yes, we'll take advantage of some of their 2093 01:45:03,720 --> 01:45:06,600 Speaker 1: strengths and not ask them to do some of their weaknesses. 2094 01:45:07,120 --> 01:45:09,639 Speaker 1: But the greatness of the offense is the system itself 2095 01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,000 Speaker 1: and their ability to get people open over the middle 2096 01:45:13,240 --> 01:45:15,479 Speaker 1: and take advantage of some of those different skill sets 2097 01:45:15,560 --> 01:45:18,400 Speaker 1: that receivers have. So yeah, I know there's no you know, 2098 01:45:18,920 --> 01:45:22,320 Speaker 1: superstar AJ Green on the outside that you just go, okay, 2099 01:45:22,400 --> 01:45:24,559 Speaker 1: I love this, But I think Robert Foster will scare 2100 01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:26,840 Speaker 1: people with his ability to run deep. I think Zay 2101 01:45:26,960 --> 01:45:30,519 Speaker 1: Jones good route runner, great body control, he can have 2102 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:33,120 Speaker 1: that ability to kind of be that back shoulder, oh gosh, 2103 01:45:33,200 --> 01:45:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm in trouble, let me throw the ball to him 2104 01:45:34,880 --> 01:45:36,639 Speaker 1: type of guy. As well well as the Bills picked 2105 01:45:36,640 --> 01:45:38,760 Speaker 1: at number nine in this year's drafted. You know, some 2106 01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:41,479 Speaker 1: things had to fall right ahead of them to get 2107 01:45:41,680 --> 01:45:43,559 Speaker 1: ed Oliver who and I agree with you is one 2108 01:45:43,560 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 1: of the top talented defensive linemen in this draft. But 2109 01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:49,240 Speaker 1: one of the things that happened most notably what happened 2110 01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:52,600 Speaker 1: was that the Giants took Daniel Jones. Should we you know, 2111 01:45:52,640 --> 01:45:54,960 Speaker 1: for us here in Buffalo, it's no skin off our chin. 2112 01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:56,679 Speaker 1: If a team in their the conference, in a different 2113 01:45:56,720 --> 01:45:59,679 Speaker 1: division wants to draft a quarterback and get get trouble 2114 01:45:59,720 --> 01:46:02,920 Speaker 1: for it. But do they need to cut Dave Getleman 2115 01:46:03,000 --> 01:46:06,439 Speaker 1: some slack for taking Donald Daniel Jones? What do you think? Yeah? 2116 01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,080 Speaker 1: I do. I do think they need to cut him 2117 01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:10,320 Speaker 1: some slack. I almost feel guilty about this because I've 2118 01:46:10,360 --> 01:46:12,439 Speaker 1: been one of the number one people probably on TV 2119 01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:14,840 Speaker 1: as far as these talking heads and guys that got 2120 01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:16,680 Speaker 1: podcasts and all that. I've been saying that I did 2121 01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,920 Speaker 1: not think Daniel Jones was worth a first round pick. 2122 01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:21,640 Speaker 1: I really did not. I thought he was more of 2123 01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:24,880 Speaker 1: a second round type quarterback. I just didn't see any 2124 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:27,280 Speaker 1: elite physical traits that would make me think he's a 2125 01:46:27,360 --> 01:46:30,240 Speaker 1: number six pick. But at the same time, I know 2126 01:46:30,400 --> 01:46:32,320 Speaker 1: that I don't know everything in the world. I also 2127 01:46:32,400 --> 01:46:35,400 Speaker 1: know these teams have a lot more information at hand 2128 01:46:35,479 --> 01:46:37,400 Speaker 1: than I do. They get to meet these players and 2129 01:46:37,560 --> 01:46:39,880 Speaker 1: really get to know them, and we're I'll stick up 2130 01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:42,920 Speaker 1: for the Giants. And David Getleman is if they believe 2131 01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:45,800 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones was their guy, then that's fine by me. 2132 01:46:45,960 --> 01:46:48,360 Speaker 1: And then they did right by what they believed and 2133 01:46:48,439 --> 01:46:51,160 Speaker 1: what their evaluation is. You don't wait. You know, if 2134 01:46:51,200 --> 01:46:53,560 Speaker 1: you think a guy's your franchise quarterback and he's the 2135 01:46:53,640 --> 01:46:55,879 Speaker 1: next guy for the next ten years to be underneath 2136 01:46:55,960 --> 01:46:58,080 Speaker 1: the center for the New York Football Giants, then you 2137 01:46:58,200 --> 01:47:01,000 Speaker 1: do that. You take him at number six, and you 2138 01:47:01,160 --> 01:47:03,520 Speaker 1: don't roll the dice and hope he's there at seventeen 2139 01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:06,120 Speaker 1: or at the top of the second round whatever, And 2140 01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:08,880 Speaker 1: maybe that's too risky. Now where Getleman's also got himself 2141 01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:11,680 Speaker 1: in troubles when he says things like I know for 2142 01:47:11,840 --> 01:47:14,760 Speaker 1: a fact there's two teams that wanted to draft them. Well, 2143 01:47:14,760 --> 01:47:16,519 Speaker 1: when you say things like I know for a fact, 2144 01:47:16,920 --> 01:47:19,000 Speaker 1: everybody checks up on you and goes, well, I know 2145 01:47:19,160 --> 01:47:21,519 Speaker 1: some of these people that you say you know for 2146 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:23,040 Speaker 1: a fact, And then all of a sudden we hear 2147 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,479 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos weren't going to draft Daniel Jones and 2148 01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:27,640 Speaker 1: had to Drew Locket number one. You know, so he 2149 01:47:27,640 --> 01:47:29,400 Speaker 1: didn't do him any self favors there. He just needs 2150 01:47:29,439 --> 01:47:32,200 Speaker 1: to say something like, hey, you know, we were scared. 2151 01:47:32,240 --> 01:47:34,479 Speaker 1: There were some other teams that were interested in Daniel Jones, 2152 01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:35,920 Speaker 1: and I think that would have been the selling point. 2153 01:47:35,960 --> 01:47:38,200 Speaker 1: And that's all he had to say. Everybody is being 2154 01:47:38,200 --> 01:47:40,360 Speaker 1: a little too critical of Daniel Jones at number six, 2155 01:47:40,600 --> 01:47:43,559 Speaker 1: But I'll say this, Steve, There's been worse draft picks 2156 01:47:43,640 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 1: in the first round. I can name a whole lot 2157 01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:47,880 Speaker 1: of them. Blake Bortles at number three. I think it 2158 01:47:47,960 --> 01:47:51,559 Speaker 1: was an all time horrible pick. You know, Christian Ponder 2159 01:47:51,640 --> 01:47:54,600 Speaker 1: at ten, I'd throw in there, Jake Locker at eleven, 2160 01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:57,400 Speaker 1: Johnny Manzel, who I did not think was a first 2161 01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:00,840 Speaker 1: round quarterback. All these I would go Daniel Jones has 2162 01:48:00,920 --> 01:48:02,720 Speaker 1: more of an upside than any of those guys, and 2163 01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:05,360 Speaker 1: it's not even close. There's things to like about Daniel 2164 01:48:05,439 --> 01:48:07,719 Speaker 1: Jones game. I just didn't think he had the elite 2165 01:48:07,800 --> 01:48:10,320 Speaker 1: talent to be worthy of drafted at number six. Chris, 2166 01:48:10,439 --> 01:48:12,080 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about another pick that helped 2167 01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:15,960 Speaker 1: the Bills, actually, the Oakland Raiders fourth pick overall, the 2168 01:48:16,040 --> 01:48:19,400 Speaker 1: Clemson defensive lineman Cleland Farrell, who you point out, wasn't 2169 01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:21,640 Speaker 1: even there the best defensive lineman at Clemson, right, and 2170 01:48:21,680 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 1: he went before I any of the rest of them. Yeah, 2171 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:25,679 Speaker 1: that's a right. I mean he was the third best 2172 01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:27,640 Speaker 1: defensive lineman on the Clemson team and got to be 2173 01:48:27,680 --> 01:48:29,479 Speaker 1: the fourth pick of the draft. You know, you could 2174 01:48:29,520 --> 01:48:34,160 Speaker 1: you figure that out again? You know? Yes, Cleland Farrell 2175 01:48:34,400 --> 01:48:36,960 Speaker 1: I don't think in any shaved way or form really 2176 01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:39,160 Speaker 1: deserved to be a top fifth team pick. By what 2177 01:48:39,320 --> 01:48:42,000 Speaker 1: you saw on film and if you read you know, 2178 01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:44,479 Speaker 1: and listen to some of the interviews Mike Mayock has 2179 01:48:44,520 --> 01:48:47,280 Speaker 1: done since the draft, I don't think they thought he 2180 01:48:47,400 --> 01:48:49,400 Speaker 1: was one of the top thirteen or fifteen players in 2181 01:48:49,439 --> 01:48:51,960 Speaker 1: the draft. You know, they were hoping somebody would trade 2182 01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:53,559 Speaker 1: up for them. He made a comed he was hoping 2183 01:48:53,640 --> 01:48:56,200 Speaker 1: Miami would trade up to four and then they would 2184 01:48:56,240 --> 01:48:58,439 Speaker 1: be able to maybe take a Clell and Farrell at thirteen, 2185 01:48:58,880 --> 01:49:03,080 Speaker 1: maybe more in line where his value started. But again, 2186 01:49:03,400 --> 01:49:05,320 Speaker 1: where I'll stick up for the Raiders is I think 2187 01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:07,560 Speaker 1: they had three needs they wanted to address in that 2188 01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:11,960 Speaker 1: first round, and it was defense end. They wanted Josh Jacobs, 2189 01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:14,840 Speaker 1: as they said, and they had a crush on Jonathan Abrams, 2190 01:49:14,880 --> 01:49:16,920 Speaker 1: out of Mississippi State, and I think they get all 2191 01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:19,960 Speaker 1: three of those physicians. They had a reach on pick 2192 01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,120 Speaker 1: number one, and I think what they did is they 2193 01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:24,360 Speaker 1: reached on a guy who. Yeah, I don't think we'll 2194 01:49:24,360 --> 01:49:27,960 Speaker 1: ever be in the conversation for leading football and sacks, 2195 01:49:28,280 --> 01:49:29,880 Speaker 1: but I think he is the type of guy that 2196 01:49:30,200 --> 01:49:32,439 Speaker 1: is going to be. He has a very high floor. 2197 01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:34,840 Speaker 1: I don't think there's very much bust factor, and I 2198 01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:36,519 Speaker 1: think it's all the other things that he brings to 2199 01:49:36,600 --> 01:49:40,000 Speaker 1: the table. He is one hundred miles per hour every play, pedital, 2200 01:49:40,120 --> 01:49:42,960 Speaker 1: the metal, great work at the great motor, and of 2201 01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:46,080 Speaker 1: course a really good football player. But yeah, I think 2202 01:49:46,439 --> 01:49:48,680 Speaker 1: that pick was a little bit of a reach and 2203 01:49:48,800 --> 01:49:51,240 Speaker 1: people aren't talking about it as much because of the 2204 01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:53,519 Speaker 1: guy we just talked about Daniel Jones at number six. 2205 01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:57,320 Speaker 1: But either way, I thought Mike Mayuk, like Brandon Bean, 2206 01:49:57,600 --> 01:50:00,800 Speaker 1: killed free agency and killed the draft over. What are 2207 01:50:00,800 --> 01:50:03,080 Speaker 1: you going to remember about the twenty nineteen draft when 2208 01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:05,800 Speaker 1: three years down the road or four years down the road, 2209 01:50:05,840 --> 01:50:08,000 Speaker 1: what's going to be your impression that you look back 2210 01:50:08,040 --> 01:50:10,439 Speaker 1: on and say, oh, yeah, I remember that draft. Yeah, Well, 2211 01:50:10,439 --> 01:50:12,280 Speaker 1: I think the first thing is right at the top, right, 2212 01:50:12,360 --> 01:50:15,400 Speaker 1: I mean Kyler Murray, Josh Rosen. We've never seen that before. 2213 01:50:15,560 --> 01:50:17,120 Speaker 1: Just to start it out, we go, Damn, there's a 2214 01:50:17,160 --> 01:50:20,120 Speaker 1: quarterback that you know was borderline five nine. He just 2215 01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:23,519 Speaker 1: made five ten and he got drafted to a team 2216 01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:26,479 Speaker 1: who had picked another quarterback at number ten in the 2217 01:50:26,640 --> 01:50:29,519 Speaker 1: draft the year before. So that certainly was a different 2218 01:50:29,560 --> 01:50:32,200 Speaker 1: set of circumstances that we've never seen. And then I 2219 01:50:32,280 --> 01:50:34,080 Speaker 1: think the other thing I will look at, you know, 2220 01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:36,760 Speaker 1: how did these defensive guys pan out? You know, there 2221 01:50:36,880 --> 01:50:39,760 Speaker 1: was so many great front seven guys drafted there in 2222 01:50:39,840 --> 01:50:42,960 Speaker 1: the top fifteen picks of the draft. How they pan out? 2223 01:50:43,320 --> 01:50:45,880 Speaker 1: And then you know, our first subject is there are 2224 01:50:45,960 --> 01:50:48,640 Speaker 1: second subject we talked about the day Daniel Jones. You 2225 01:50:48,720 --> 01:50:51,840 Speaker 1: know that's that's gonna be one of the polarizing conversations 2226 01:50:51,880 --> 01:50:54,240 Speaker 1: of this draft is how good is he? Was he 2227 01:50:54,360 --> 01:50:57,599 Speaker 1: worth it? And was he worth being the Eli Manning successor? 2228 01:50:57,720 --> 01:51:00,040 Speaker 1: Only time will tell. And I'm a Giants fan, and 2229 01:51:00,240 --> 01:51:02,880 Speaker 1: so again I didn't love Daniel Jones number six, but 2230 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for him now and I'm all in on it, 2231 01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:07,200 Speaker 1: and I hope it works out because I got one 2232 01:51:07,280 --> 01:51:09,000 Speaker 1: more for you, not about the draft but I read 2233 01:51:09,040 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 1: recently where you warned Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr not 2234 01:51:13,040 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 1: to let John Gruden quote invade your brain. What did 2235 01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:18,679 Speaker 1: you mean by that? Well, yeah, that's exactly right, because 2236 01:51:18,720 --> 01:51:20,880 Speaker 1: he's good at invading your brain. You know, that's what 2237 01:51:20,960 --> 01:51:24,120 Speaker 1: he is. You know, he pushes buttons. He can talk 2238 01:51:24,120 --> 01:51:26,840 Speaker 1: a little loosely with the media. He can talk about 2239 01:51:26,960 --> 01:51:29,400 Speaker 1: how he loves every other quarterback in the NFL except 2240 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:31,599 Speaker 1: the guy that he's working with on a daily basis. 2241 01:51:32,000 --> 01:51:35,160 Speaker 1: And you know, if you're not careful, you'll start finding 2242 01:51:35,240 --> 01:51:38,040 Speaker 1: yourself obsessed and improving John Gruden wrong. You know, I 2243 01:51:38,200 --> 01:51:41,400 Speaker 1: found myself in meetings at times and at practice is going, man, 2244 01:51:41,520 --> 01:51:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna teach this little effort of lesson and show 2245 01:51:45,160 --> 01:51:47,679 Speaker 1: him I'm the man, and I'm gonna prove him wrong. 2246 01:51:47,880 --> 01:51:50,040 Speaker 1: And oh wait, what's the play coach? Or wait, what's 2247 01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:52,519 Speaker 1: my read? You know, So that's what I meant by that. 2248 01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:55,599 Speaker 1: You know, just stay focused on being a good football player. 2249 01:51:55,840 --> 01:51:58,720 Speaker 1: What you have to do as a player, do you know, 2250 01:51:58,840 --> 01:52:02,280 Speaker 1: improve your crap. Don't always worry about you know, the 2251 01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:04,840 Speaker 1: little Napoleon in the background yelling at you. That's what 2252 01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:08,280 Speaker 1: I like to call Gruden every now, very plain with 2253 01:52:08,400 --> 01:52:11,000 Speaker 1: that exactly, Chris. We admire your work. Thanks you spending 2254 01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:12,640 Speaker 1: a few minutes with us here today. We appreciate it. 2255 01:52:12,880 --> 01:52:14,519 Speaker 1: Thanks so much. Guys, be good, have a good day. 2256 01:52:14,600 --> 01:52:17,240 Speaker 1: Chris sims And an NBC Sports, NFL analyst, co host 2257 01:52:17,320 --> 01:52:20,479 Speaker 1: of PFT Live, former NFL quarterback eight seasons. He just 2258 01:52:20,520 --> 01:52:22,640 Speaker 1: called them a little to one of the one of 2259 01:52:22,680 --> 01:52:25,360 Speaker 1: the things I've always said when Gruden was at Tampa 2260 01:52:25,479 --> 01:52:28,479 Speaker 1: Bay and he and it didn't go well for him 2261 01:52:28,479 --> 01:52:30,120 Speaker 1: at TIM but he got there and one year later 2262 01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:32,280 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl and then it was downhill from there. 2263 01:52:32,320 --> 01:52:34,600 Speaker 1: And Simms was one of the guys that he worked with, 2264 01:52:34,760 --> 01:52:37,360 Speaker 1: and it was and he was murder on him. I mean, 2265 01:52:37,439 --> 01:52:39,120 Speaker 1: it was used to go back and look at the 2266 01:52:39,200 --> 01:52:41,680 Speaker 1: old ESPN clips of whether it was hard knocks or what, 2267 01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:43,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what, or maybe it was the old 2268 01:52:43,880 --> 01:52:47,080 Speaker 1: uh embedded or you know, thirty for thirty, I can't 2269 01:52:47,120 --> 01:52:50,240 Speaker 1: remember what it was, but they had a Gruden miked 2270 01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:53,200 Speaker 1: up and he was crushing sim I mean, just all 2271 01:52:53,360 --> 01:52:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, and Gruden's offense is complicated and diverse and 2272 01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:03,240 Speaker 1: very intric kit and very verbal. You know, you gotta 2273 01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:05,880 Speaker 1: it takes a long time to call to play. It's complex, 2274 01:53:06,320 --> 01:53:08,120 Speaker 1: so you got to get it right. And you know 2275 01:53:08,240 --> 01:53:10,400 Speaker 1: they were going around and around. It was just you know, 2276 01:53:10,479 --> 01:53:12,760 Speaker 1: you could just see that's the way Gruden coached. You know, 2277 01:53:12,920 --> 01:53:16,160 Speaker 1: he pushed his buttons and he gets some and you know, 2278 01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:18,760 Speaker 1: forgot like he's you know, you gotta have you gotta 2279 01:53:18,800 --> 01:53:20,439 Speaker 1: have your lights on and your guard up all the 2280 01:53:20,520 --> 01:53:24,080 Speaker 1: time with him. So it's, uh, it's interesting to hear 2281 01:53:24,200 --> 01:53:26,000 Speaker 1: his take on it. So many years later. You met 2282 01:53:26,080 --> 01:53:29,479 Speaker 1: Gruden obviously in your network work. Occasionally he came in here. 2283 01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:33,880 Speaker 1: Once the Bills had a preseason event for sponsors and 2284 01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:35,800 Speaker 1: John Gruden was the guest speaker. We're here for that. 2285 01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:38,680 Speaker 1: I was not, so I interviewed him and introduced him 2286 01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:41,240 Speaker 1: at the event and talked to him basically for fifteen 2287 01:53:41,320 --> 01:53:44,439 Speaker 1: twenty minutes before the event. Totally charming. I mean, really, 2288 01:53:44,479 --> 01:53:46,760 Speaker 1: you can see why the network TV people like this guy. 2289 01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:49,160 Speaker 1: I liked him after fifteen minutes. Sure, I wouldn't want 2290 01:53:49,160 --> 01:53:51,679 Speaker 1: to play for him, though. I don't think he's He's 2291 01:53:51,720 --> 01:53:53,439 Speaker 1: one of those guys. And and he'll tell you this 2292 01:53:53,600 --> 01:53:56,479 Speaker 1: story is you know he was want to I want 2293 01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:58,639 Speaker 1: to play, He would do everything to get on the field. 2294 01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:00,840 Speaker 1: And he's a grinder. You know, he watches film, he 2295 01:54:00,960 --> 01:54:03,240 Speaker 1: knows everything about it. He couldn't get it done physically, 2296 01:54:03,320 --> 01:54:05,680 Speaker 1: you know. I mean it was just he wasn't good 2297 01:54:05,760 --> 01:54:07,880 Speaker 1: enough physically. So he's one of those guys that coaching 2298 01:54:08,040 --> 01:54:10,720 Speaker 1: is perfect for him. I mean it's his wheelhouse. And 2299 01:54:10,920 --> 01:54:12,920 Speaker 1: you saw it his first go round with the Raiders. 2300 01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:15,519 Speaker 1: He was the youngest head coach at the time, maybe 2301 01:54:15,640 --> 01:54:18,720 Speaker 1: ever in the NFL by Al Davis. And you know, 2302 01:54:18,800 --> 01:54:20,479 Speaker 1: he never slept a guy, was a you know, a 2303 01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:23,599 Speaker 1: three hour a night sleeper. And he had a lot 2304 01:54:23,640 --> 01:54:26,080 Speaker 1: of success with Rich Gannon his first go around. Who's 2305 01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:27,640 Speaker 1: a guy I worked with his last year and Rich 2306 01:54:27,720 --> 01:54:29,840 Speaker 1: was the same way. Rich was a grinder. So those 2307 01:54:29,880 --> 01:54:32,040 Speaker 1: two hit it off and got all the way down 2308 01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:34,560 Speaker 1: to well almost to the doorstep of the Super Bowl. 2309 01:54:34,600 --> 01:54:37,360 Speaker 1: And then the next year when Al Davis traded John 2310 01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:40,560 Speaker 1: Gruden instead of a player, Rich met him in the 2311 01:54:40,600 --> 01:54:43,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. So that was the Gruden's victory with the 2312 01:54:43,240 --> 01:54:45,720 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers over the Oakland Raiders. That he is 2313 01:54:45,760 --> 01:54:48,760 Speaker 1: an intriguing guy, but he's one of those guys that man, 2314 01:54:48,880 --> 01:54:53,440 Speaker 1: if he has to be in football or he I 2315 01:54:53,480 --> 01:54:55,400 Speaker 1: don't know what else he'd do. Well, I guess I 2316 01:54:55,520 --> 01:54:58,000 Speaker 1: hear what you're saying about. He was born to coach, right. 2317 01:54:58,160 --> 01:55:00,160 Speaker 1: I think he was better on TV. I think he's 2318 01:55:00,200 --> 01:55:04,000 Speaker 1: better suited with his opinions, with his analysis and his grinding, 2319 01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:08,280 Speaker 1: better suited on TV than he is to lead a team. 2320 01:55:08,360 --> 01:55:10,160 Speaker 1: Not that he doesn't. He knows his x's and o's. 2321 01:55:10,200 --> 01:55:11,920 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about to be 2322 01:55:12,000 --> 01:55:15,920 Speaker 1: a leader of a great communicator, a great leader. But 2323 01:55:16,320 --> 01:55:18,880 Speaker 1: you know he's not. His leadership style is not one 2324 01:55:18,920 --> 01:55:21,600 Speaker 1: where he's gonna, you know, be arm in arm drinking 2325 01:55:21,640 --> 01:55:24,320 Speaker 1: beer with his with his players. You know, he's he's 2326 01:55:24,360 --> 01:55:25,880 Speaker 1: pushing them to be as best as they can be, 2327 01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:29,680 Speaker 1: and sometimes players rankle against that. Yeah, you can see it. Yeah. Hey, 2328 01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:32,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk more about the Bills draft. What's left? 2329 01:55:32,040 --> 01:55:34,320 Speaker 1: What work do they have to do as far as personnel? 2330 01:55:34,560 --> 01:55:37,760 Speaker 1: What remaining personnel need do you see for the Buffalo Bills. 2331 01:55:37,800 --> 01:55:39,640 Speaker 1: After the draft, we'll go back to the tweet sheet. 2332 01:55:39,800 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 1: We'll take a few more phone calls. Got lines open 2333 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:44,360 Speaker 1: at eight oh three oh five fifty or toll free 2334 01:55:44,440 --> 01:55:47,440 Speaker 1: one eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty plus 2335 01:55:47,640 --> 01:55:49,200 Speaker 1: NFL two or false. We have to do it today. 2336 01:55:49,200 --> 01:55:51,240 Speaker 1: We didn't do it yesterday. All right, when we come back. 2337 01:55:51,360 --> 01:55:53,880 Speaker 1: One Bill's Live, presented by Kalida Health from One Wheels Drive. 2338 01:55:54,240 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 1: This is Buffalo Bills Radio, John Murphy, Steve Tasker here 2339 01:56:09,920 --> 01:56:12,000 Speaker 1: until three. That means twenty eight more minutes. Steve again, 2340 01:56:12,400 --> 01:56:15,240 Speaker 1: the show is flying by. You feel it. I felt that. 2341 01:56:15,280 --> 01:56:17,000 Speaker 1: I told you twenty after twelve. I was like, man, 2342 01:56:17,080 --> 01:56:19,440 Speaker 1: this show's we're booking again. We got a lot, we 2343 01:56:19,520 --> 01:56:21,920 Speaker 1: had good guests. We hit the ground running today. I 2344 01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:26,000 Speaker 1: will say high level rep Partee a couple of the 2345 01:56:26,120 --> 01:56:29,840 Speaker 1: shots going back and forth. It's been great. Chris Simms 2346 01:56:29,960 --> 01:56:33,000 Speaker 1: was very complimentary. Has some good stuff, particularly on some 2347 01:56:33,120 --> 01:56:36,160 Speaker 1: of the Bill's lower round draft picks of Oshan O 2348 01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,680 Speaker 1: Sean Joseph. He thinks he's going to be a starter 2349 01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:40,520 Speaker 1: at some point because he's just that kind of athlete. 2350 01:56:40,560 --> 01:56:42,280 Speaker 1: It'll be fun to see. He looks like an athlete. 2351 01:56:42,280 --> 01:56:44,240 Speaker 1: He looks small, right, Joseph. He's a little light and 2352 01:56:44,320 --> 01:56:46,320 Speaker 1: that's why that's why the Bills were able to draft 2353 01:56:46,400 --> 01:56:48,440 Speaker 1: him when they did, was because he's a little light. 2354 01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:52,040 Speaker 1: But man, the guy can scoot. So we'll see. And 2355 01:56:52,120 --> 01:56:53,920 Speaker 1: you make a good point. I did never thought about this, 2356 01:56:54,280 --> 01:56:58,880 Speaker 1: the parallel to uh Mulatto. Yeah, you know Mulatto. In fact, 2357 01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:02,120 Speaker 1: some people think Mulatto remains a little liked. But he's 2358 01:57:02,120 --> 01:57:04,120 Speaker 1: been a player, he's been a playmaker, he's been around 2359 01:57:04,120 --> 01:57:06,000 Speaker 1: the ball. If you look at the if you look 2360 01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:09,560 Speaker 1: at the draft, that got the top guy, Devin Bush 2361 01:57:09,680 --> 01:57:12,640 Speaker 1: who came out of Florida or no, I'm sorry, LSU, 2362 01:57:13,320 --> 01:57:15,280 Speaker 1: or was it Devin White. I can't remember Devin Bush 2363 01:57:15,320 --> 01:57:19,320 Speaker 1: or they were both of them were two thirty. I 2364 01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:21,240 Speaker 1: mean that's how big they were. They were and they 2365 01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:23,880 Speaker 1: were six foot. Devin Bush is the Michigan guy, the 2366 01:57:23,920 --> 01:57:26,200 Speaker 1: linebacker who went to Pittsburgh. Devin White is the LSU 2367 01:57:26,280 --> 01:57:28,480 Speaker 1: guy went to Tampa Bay, right, I mean they were 2368 01:57:28,600 --> 01:57:33,280 Speaker 1: They're not that big, And so you know, with Sean Joseph, well, 2369 01:57:33,320 --> 01:57:35,040 Speaker 1: we'll see how We'll see how he does. I mean, 2370 01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:37,880 Speaker 1: because he's not like it's not a reach to say 2371 01:57:37,920 --> 01:57:39,920 Speaker 1: he's a linebacker in the NFL. I'm just what I'm saying, 2372 01:57:39,920 --> 01:57:42,520 Speaker 1: I guess. So it'll be interesting to see how he performs. 2373 01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:45,000 Speaker 1: The Bills what's left for them. Our Twitter poll today 2374 01:57:45,160 --> 01:57:47,160 Speaker 1: is pretty simple, and we'd like to get your response 2375 01:57:47,280 --> 01:57:49,680 Speaker 1: on the phones at eight oh three oh five fifty 2376 01:57:49,800 --> 01:57:52,480 Speaker 1: or TWL three one eight eight eight five fifty two 2377 01:57:52,520 --> 01:57:55,160 Speaker 1: five fifty. Okay, the draft is over. What's the biggest 2378 01:57:55,200 --> 01:57:58,280 Speaker 1: remaining personnel need for the Buffalo Bills? On Twitter? We've 2379 01:57:58,320 --> 01:58:01,680 Speaker 1: got about twelve thirty votes in on Twitter and it's 2380 01:58:01,720 --> 01:58:03,800 Speaker 1: been like this all day. Forty three percent of you 2381 01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:06,640 Speaker 1: say edge rusher is the number one remaining person on 2382 01:58:06,800 --> 01:58:09,400 Speaker 1: need for the Bills. Forty two percent say wide receiver, 2383 01:58:09,880 --> 01:58:12,360 Speaker 1: nine percent say tight end, six percent have somebody else 2384 01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:15,120 Speaker 1: in mind, So eighty five percent of you say it's 2385 01:58:15,160 --> 01:58:17,600 Speaker 1: either edge rusher or wide receiver. Let's talk about it. 2386 01:58:17,680 --> 01:58:20,440 Speaker 1: Give us a call and we'll discuss. Here's Perry on 2387 01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:24,520 Speaker 1: the line. Is this Perry? Yeah? Hi, Hi, glad to 2388 01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:26,320 Speaker 1: be on again. Guys, and I kind of wanted to 2389 01:58:26,360 --> 01:58:28,760 Speaker 1: talk about the third round a little bit and they 2390 01:58:28,840 --> 01:58:32,560 Speaker 1: got and who was still available or me? Hakim Butler 2391 01:58:33,560 --> 01:58:37,240 Speaker 1: out of Iowa State, big guy, big outside receiver, ran 2392 01:58:37,440 --> 01:58:41,760 Speaker 1: real well, high points the football, wins, contested catches on 2393 01:58:41,880 --> 01:58:44,480 Speaker 1: a lot of boards. He was like top of the 2394 01:58:44,560 --> 01:58:48,800 Speaker 1: second and he falls all the way to you you know, 2395 01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:53,120 Speaker 1: I didn't really understand passing up on him. Before you 2396 01:58:53,200 --> 01:58:54,960 Speaker 1: move on, I think you're moving on, Perry. I'm just 2397 01:58:55,000 --> 01:58:58,400 Speaker 1: counting up. There where two or three receivers chosen in 2398 01:58:58,520 --> 01:59:01,720 Speaker 1: between the Bills picked and when Hakim Butler finally went, 2399 01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:05,280 Speaker 1: indicating that it wasn't just the Bills who he went 2400 01:59:05,320 --> 01:59:08,520 Speaker 1: first pick in the fourth round and after Devin Singletary, 2401 01:59:08,880 --> 01:59:12,160 Speaker 1: there were two other receivers chosen, Miles Boykin from Note 2402 01:59:12,160 --> 01:59:15,040 Speaker 1: tre Dame and there was one other I'm missing him here, 2403 01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:16,880 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it wasn't just the 2404 01:59:16,960 --> 01:59:19,800 Speaker 1: Bills who passed by him, teams who needed receivers. Oh, 2405 01:59:19,960 --> 01:59:24,200 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin from Ohio State. Yeah, I think that it 2406 01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:26,640 Speaker 1: was a little bit of what flavor do you want? Yep, 2407 01:59:27,200 --> 01:59:28,880 Speaker 1: And I think it was maybe he had a couple 2408 01:59:28,960 --> 01:59:31,320 Speaker 1: of drops and they were worried about that. But for 2409 01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:35,080 Speaker 1: what the Bills needed, I felt like they don't have 2410 01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:37,720 Speaker 1: a guy other than maybe Ruben Foster that can high 2411 01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:43,680 Speaker 1: point of football on a consistent basis, and Rubens Robert Roberts. Oh, 2412 01:59:43,720 --> 01:59:46,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, yeah, Robert Foster, but he did high point 2413 01:59:46,840 --> 01:59:49,120 Speaker 1: a couple of balls last year, so it shows promise, 2414 01:59:49,280 --> 01:59:53,120 Speaker 1: but I saw no reason to really pass. And again 2415 01:59:53,200 --> 01:59:56,440 Speaker 1: I entirely understand what you're saying. Parent, I want to 2416 01:59:56,480 --> 01:59:59,560 Speaker 1: get cbing on this. But you said the Bills didn't 2417 01:59:59,560 --> 02:00:01,520 Speaker 1: need it. I said this right out of the box 2418 02:00:01,680 --> 02:00:04,560 Speaker 1: yesterday's show. They didn't draft for need. It almost as 2419 02:00:04,600 --> 02:00:07,200 Speaker 1: if they didn't care what they needed. It was who's 2420 02:00:07,240 --> 02:00:10,160 Speaker 1: on our board, and Brandon being admitted they didn't have 2421 02:00:10,240 --> 02:00:13,480 Speaker 1: to admitted he said it yesterday. We stayed with our board. 2422 02:00:13,600 --> 02:00:15,200 Speaker 1: That was the number one takeaway I got from the 2423 02:00:15,200 --> 02:00:18,720 Speaker 1: Buffalo draft. They stayed true to their board. And you 2424 02:00:18,800 --> 02:00:21,000 Speaker 1: say they passed up what they needed. It didn't matter 2425 02:00:21,080 --> 02:00:23,760 Speaker 1: than them, it appears, and not for what they said, 2426 02:00:23,760 --> 02:00:25,320 Speaker 1: but from what they did, it did not matter to 2427 02:00:25,360 --> 02:00:27,680 Speaker 1: them what they needed or what anybody thought they needed 2428 02:00:27,680 --> 02:00:30,480 Speaker 1: to go ahead. That's exactly right, there's no question. And 2429 02:00:30,720 --> 02:00:37,960 Speaker 1: obviously they had Devin Singletary ranked ahead of the King 2430 02:00:38,520 --> 02:00:42,200 Speaker 1: Butler or whoever else, the guy from um Um Notre Dame. 2431 02:00:42,320 --> 02:00:44,440 Speaker 1: So that's just the way it was. They had him 2432 02:00:44,520 --> 02:00:46,920 Speaker 1: rated ahead of him for whatever reason that their evaluation 2433 02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:50,760 Speaker 1: was probably obviously different than yours, Perry. But uh, they said, 2434 02:00:50,800 --> 02:00:55,040 Speaker 1: you know, they put the best player available at whatever 2435 02:00:55,080 --> 02:01:01,480 Speaker 1: the position was, and this guy, Devin Singletary was They 2436 02:01:01,560 --> 02:01:03,920 Speaker 1: had him ranked notched ahead of all these other guys 2437 02:01:04,360 --> 02:01:06,480 Speaker 1: in his ability in the way he could help the team. So, 2438 02:01:07,360 --> 02:01:09,360 Speaker 1: while you're right, I think at that during the draft, 2439 02:01:09,400 --> 02:01:11,080 Speaker 1: I think it was we were all surprised that a 2440 02:01:11,160 --> 02:01:13,840 Speaker 1: wide receiver didn't present themselves to the Buffalo Bills at 2441 02:01:13,880 --> 02:01:18,800 Speaker 1: that point. But by the same token, uh, they they 2442 02:01:18,880 --> 02:01:24,800 Speaker 1: did by their by their evaluation, Devin Singletary is going 2443 02:01:24,840 --> 02:01:26,600 Speaker 1: to be a better addition to this team than anybody 2444 02:01:26,640 --> 02:01:28,320 Speaker 1: else would have been. And I don't neither one of 2445 02:01:28,360 --> 02:01:29,920 Speaker 1: us trying to show you down, Parry, because you make 2446 02:01:29,920 --> 02:01:31,880 Speaker 1: a good point. It's true we had the same I 2447 02:01:31,960 --> 02:01:34,640 Speaker 1: had the same reaction, And you're right at the kind 2448 02:01:34,680 --> 02:01:36,880 Speaker 1: of the inflection point of the draft for the Bills 2449 02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:40,080 Speaker 1: third round. You know, the first two guys really good 2450 02:01:40,120 --> 02:01:42,600 Speaker 1: picks people love, and right there when they went to Singletary, 2451 02:01:42,960 --> 02:01:45,839 Speaker 1: many of us me included, were like, WHOA, what receivers 2452 02:01:45,880 --> 02:01:47,960 Speaker 1: are available there? Right? And you had one of the names. 2453 02:01:48,200 --> 02:01:50,560 Speaker 1: So we're not trying to show you down, Parry. That's true. 2454 02:01:50,720 --> 02:01:53,440 Speaker 1: It was a surprise, no question about it, and it'll 2455 02:01:53,440 --> 02:01:55,720 Speaker 1: be it'll have to wait and see it. Does Devin 2456 02:01:56,080 --> 02:01:59,680 Speaker 1: I mean, does does Devin Singletary Uh turn out to 2457 02:01:59,680 --> 02:02:02,440 Speaker 1: be a better pro at his position than the receivers 2458 02:02:02,480 --> 02:02:04,440 Speaker 1: you mentioned. We'll have to wait and find out. But 2459 02:02:04,520 --> 02:02:08,400 Speaker 1: the Bills think he will be particularly on this team. Yeah. So, 2460 02:02:08,760 --> 02:02:11,560 Speaker 1: so my response to that is a couple of things. 2461 02:02:12,400 --> 02:02:14,640 Speaker 1: You had ten picks going into the draft, and it 2462 02:02:14,800 --> 02:02:18,240 Speaker 1: was a deep, deep, wide receiver class. It had to 2463 02:02:18,360 --> 02:02:22,360 Speaker 1: have lined up somewhere in my opinion. If it wasn't there, 2464 02:02:22,480 --> 02:02:25,040 Speaker 1: then somewhere else because there was plenty of other talents. 2465 02:02:25,320 --> 02:02:28,280 Speaker 1: You know, did you hear our show yesterday, Perry, Because 2466 02:02:28,600 --> 02:02:30,480 Speaker 1: the interview with Brandon Bean was good and we talked 2467 02:02:30,480 --> 02:02:33,600 Speaker 1: about these issues and he said, wow, the receiver crop 2468 02:02:33,800 --> 02:02:36,360 Speaker 1: was deep. His indication was and it wasn't just brand 2469 02:02:36,400 --> 02:02:38,600 Speaker 1: and others have said this. It was kind of like, 2470 02:02:39,520 --> 02:02:41,200 Speaker 1: what do you want? What kind of receiver you want? 2471 02:02:41,240 --> 02:02:43,560 Speaker 1: They're not all made the same. And while the Bills have, 2472 02:02:43,760 --> 02:02:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, a great slot receiver now in Cole Beasley, 2473 02:02:47,880 --> 02:02:51,080 Speaker 1: maybe somebody lined up in their draft spot who was projecting, 2474 02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, like the guy from Massachusetts, right, a slot guy, 2475 02:02:55,400 --> 02:02:58,920 Speaker 1: And yeah, he went, we're a second round but I mean, 2476 02:02:58,960 --> 02:03:01,000 Speaker 1: it was like the right guy wasn't there for the 2477 02:03:01,040 --> 02:03:03,080 Speaker 1: Bills at the right time. And I don't have any 2478 02:03:03,320 --> 02:03:05,080 Speaker 1: Are you saying that, what are not telling the truth 2479 02:03:05,120 --> 02:03:08,360 Speaker 1: about that, Perry or what's your point? Just don't trust 2480 02:03:09,080 --> 02:03:13,560 Speaker 1: my evaluation and their evaluation obviously is different. I'm saying 2481 02:03:13,640 --> 02:03:16,960 Speaker 1: I thought that there was plenty plenty to be had 2482 02:03:17,160 --> 02:03:19,520 Speaker 1: in any of the rounds past the first round, Okay, 2483 02:03:20,040 --> 02:03:23,520 Speaker 1: matched up? Yeah, okay, And yeah, you may be right 2484 02:03:23,720 --> 02:03:27,400 Speaker 1: because some of these guys down the DK Metcalf, Marquis Brown, 2485 02:03:28,040 --> 02:03:32,920 Speaker 1: Paris Campbell, A J. Brown, Deebo, Samuel Nikil Harry, who's 2486 02:03:32,960 --> 02:03:37,280 Speaker 1: the first receiver taken by New England. Some of those 2487 02:03:37,320 --> 02:03:39,080 Speaker 1: guys are probably gonna turn out to be pretty good 2488 02:03:39,120 --> 02:03:44,200 Speaker 1: pro wide receivers. The Bills through their work in free 2489 02:03:44,240 --> 02:03:47,839 Speaker 1: agency with Cole Beasley and John Brown and Duke Williams 2490 02:03:47,840 --> 02:03:50,480 Speaker 1: all these other guys and their roster that's on the team, 2491 02:03:51,360 --> 02:03:54,520 Speaker 1: they felt like they could take the best player, the 2492 02:03:54,560 --> 02:03:57,120 Speaker 1: player they wanted the most, not the player they wanted, 2493 02:03:57,160 --> 02:04:01,400 Speaker 1: but the player who was had the best chance for them. So, yeah, 2494 02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:04,040 Speaker 1: you're right. We were all surprised by the fact that 2495 02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:07,840 Speaker 1: they didn't take a wide out, but I don't know. Yeah, 2496 02:04:07,920 --> 02:04:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm not that upset about it because we none of 2497 02:04:10,720 --> 02:04:12,920 Speaker 1: us still know. We can debate it until you know, 2498 02:04:13,040 --> 02:04:15,280 Speaker 1: next week, twenty four hours a day, and we'll never 2499 02:04:15,360 --> 02:04:17,280 Speaker 1: know until these all these guys take the field. We 2500 02:04:17,320 --> 02:04:20,200 Speaker 1: get to watch them. But your points well taken. Everybody 2501 02:04:20,280 --> 02:04:22,120 Speaker 1: was surprised by the fact that Bills didn't get one 2502 02:04:22,160 --> 02:04:24,560 Speaker 1: of those guys in this draft, and you're also at 2503 02:04:24,640 --> 02:04:27,240 Speaker 1: that spot, third round, at that spot. Yeah, well, I 2504 02:04:27,280 --> 02:04:29,080 Speaker 1: think it is because the running back. Yeah, they just 2505 02:04:29,160 --> 02:04:31,240 Speaker 1: signed two running backs in the weeks leading up to 2506 02:04:31,280 --> 02:04:34,440 Speaker 1: the draft in Frank Gore and t J. Yelden Um. 2507 02:04:35,520 --> 02:04:39,800 Speaker 1: And then you know, so, yeah, if there's any semblance 2508 02:04:39,840 --> 02:04:42,160 Speaker 1: of need, that's you know, that kind of takes that 2509 02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:46,400 Speaker 1: off the handle for you. You know. Thanks. Very True 2510 02:04:46,440 --> 02:04:48,680 Speaker 1: or False brought to you by Yancey's Fancy New York's 2511 02:04:48,720 --> 02:04:51,560 Speaker 1: artists and Geez True or False Number one. The Dolphins 2512 02:04:51,600 --> 02:04:54,960 Speaker 1: should still target a quarterback in the twenty twenty draft, Steve, 2513 02:04:55,000 --> 02:04:57,040 Speaker 1: I can argue either way. So I want you to 2514 02:04:57,120 --> 02:04:59,080 Speaker 1: go first, and I will take exactly the opposite of 2515 02:04:59,160 --> 02:05:01,360 Speaker 1: what you say. Ok, I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say, yeah, 2516 02:05:01,360 --> 02:05:05,200 Speaker 1: they should. I mean, there's at this point sitting here 2517 02:05:05,440 --> 02:05:09,600 Speaker 1: unless Josh Rosen is an absolute uh crusher at quarterback. 2518 02:05:09,600 --> 02:05:11,280 Speaker 1: I mean where he goes in there and really lights 2519 02:05:11,320 --> 02:05:13,880 Speaker 1: it up and throws for you know, forty seven hundred 2520 02:05:13,960 --> 02:05:17,880 Speaker 1: yards and thirty thirty twenty five to thirty touchdowns and 2521 02:05:18,360 --> 02:05:22,400 Speaker 1: ten or fewer interceptions. Um, yeah, I think it's you 2522 02:05:22,480 --> 02:05:24,560 Speaker 1: still go after him if you're in the position to 2523 02:05:24,640 --> 02:05:28,120 Speaker 1: do it. And they they're not invested in him financially 2524 02:05:28,240 --> 02:05:31,040 Speaker 1: very much. They're they're into him for what was it, 2525 02:05:31,480 --> 02:05:35,080 Speaker 1: six million bucks over three years. Yeah, that's nothing in 2526 02:05:35,160 --> 02:05:37,880 Speaker 1: the NFL. So yeah, take a shot, take another swing 2527 02:05:38,240 --> 02:05:41,320 Speaker 1: at the at the home run, and get a quarterback 2528 02:05:41,440 --> 02:05:43,520 Speaker 1: from Miami. That's that's the way to go. If you're 2529 02:05:43,520 --> 02:05:45,440 Speaker 1: gonna build a roster, you need that guy. And they'll 2530 02:05:45,480 --> 02:05:47,400 Speaker 1: have another chance to do that this next year. And 2531 02:05:47,480 --> 02:05:48,960 Speaker 1: now we'll go the other way. Just to go the 2532 02:05:49,040 --> 02:05:51,320 Speaker 1: other way, because I couldn't make that. I could agree 2533 02:05:51,320 --> 02:05:53,760 Speaker 1: with what you said, but look, let's wait and see 2534 02:05:53,800 --> 02:05:55,600 Speaker 1: how Josh Rosen plays. Right, I don't know if they 2535 02:05:55,600 --> 02:05:57,920 Speaker 1: should target it quarterback. Can we at least get him 2536 02:05:57,920 --> 02:06:00,400 Speaker 1: a chance to play, maybe start a season and see 2537 02:06:00,400 --> 02:06:02,200 Speaker 1: what kind of quarterback he is, see if there's development 2538 02:06:02,240 --> 02:06:05,280 Speaker 1: from his rookie year at Arizona. I wouldn't say at 2539 02:06:05,320 --> 02:06:08,040 Speaker 1: this point they should target a quarterback. They're smart, they'll 2540 02:06:08,080 --> 02:06:10,120 Speaker 1: know how to handle it. They'll keep their eye on quarterbacks. 2541 02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:13,200 Speaker 1: My career said it over the weekend. We could still 2542 02:06:13,280 --> 02:06:16,280 Speaker 1: draft a quarterback, could still not, will still draft a 2543 02:06:16,360 --> 02:06:19,200 Speaker 1: quarterback next year. So I'm gonna say false. Yeah. I 2544 02:06:19,240 --> 02:06:23,120 Speaker 1: think we had Armando on from the Miami Herald. I 2545 02:06:23,240 --> 02:06:26,840 Speaker 1: think it's the problem is what happens if I show 2546 02:06:26,920 --> 02:06:29,080 Speaker 1: some really promise but oh my gosh, I don't know, 2547 02:06:29,280 --> 02:06:30,720 Speaker 1: you know what I'm he Well, if it's a big 2548 02:06:30,800 --> 02:06:34,520 Speaker 1: gray area and the answer the question isn't answered right well, 2549 02:06:34,760 --> 02:06:37,240 Speaker 1: definitively again, and that is likely the way it'll go. 2550 02:06:37,320 --> 02:06:39,440 Speaker 1: I think Armando said that. And by the way, when 2551 02:06:39,640 --> 02:06:41,600 Speaker 1: Armando said that with us back at in the one 2552 02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:44,400 Speaker 1: o'clock hour, I thought to myself, we were just in 2553 02:06:44,480 --> 02:06:47,640 Speaker 1: that position, right. We had Tyrod Taylor playing pretty well, 2554 02:06:48,320 --> 02:06:50,800 Speaker 1: pretty well, pretty well for a year or two. You 2555 02:06:50,920 --> 02:06:53,000 Speaker 1: could you know, live with that, could buy with it. 2556 02:06:53,120 --> 02:06:55,800 Speaker 1: But the Bills wanted to get great, you know, at quarterback, 2557 02:06:55,880 --> 02:06:59,080 Speaker 1: so they said, you about a Tyrod and drafted a 2558 02:06:59,160 --> 02:07:01,480 Speaker 1: first round quarter Which is not to say that's the 2559 02:07:01,520 --> 02:07:02,720 Speaker 1: only way you can do it, but we were right 2560 02:07:02,760 --> 02:07:05,280 Speaker 1: in that seat. Yeah, didn't that sound familiar? That's true. 2561 02:07:05,560 --> 02:07:09,080 Speaker 1: I never thought about that, But you're right because there 2562 02:07:09,160 --> 02:07:13,120 Speaker 1: was a lot of pushback trading Tyrod. People were like, 2563 02:07:13,200 --> 02:07:15,360 Speaker 1: well what you know? Well, what are you doing? You know? 2564 02:07:15,760 --> 02:07:17,760 Speaker 1: So I got you to the playoffs? How could you 2565 02:07:17,840 --> 02:07:20,520 Speaker 1: not go with him? Exactly? NFL True or False Part two, 2566 02:07:20,880 --> 02:07:24,000 Speaker 1: Tyree Jackson, you bet quarterback just signed to a undrafted 2567 02:07:24,080 --> 02:07:26,880 Speaker 1: rookie rage and contract with the Bills. Tyree Jackson is 2568 02:07:26,880 --> 02:07:29,800 Speaker 1: the quarterback the NFL draft for good true or false. 2569 02:07:29,960 --> 02:07:31,960 Speaker 1: You can go Steve on this. Obviously they did. He 2570 02:07:32,040 --> 02:07:33,760 Speaker 1: did not get drafted. He came out and I think 2571 02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:36,560 Speaker 1: he had high hopes for getting drafted. He's a big, strong, 2572 02:07:36,960 --> 02:07:40,800 Speaker 1: strong arm quarterback. He's an athlete. Um, I think um. 2573 02:07:41,440 --> 02:07:44,720 Speaker 1: He he wanted to go prouh. He did not want 2574 02:07:44,720 --> 02:07:46,800 Speaker 1: to hang around and play another year of college football. 2575 02:07:46,800 --> 02:07:48,680 Speaker 1: He had put it, got into the porthold to transfer, 2576 02:07:48,800 --> 02:07:51,480 Speaker 1: that didn't work out. Nobody was really biting on that, 2577 02:07:51,760 --> 02:07:54,360 Speaker 1: and uh, he wanted to turn and give it a try. 2578 02:07:54,440 --> 02:07:57,080 Speaker 1: He had some confidence in his physical abilities. It wasn't 2579 02:07:57,160 --> 02:07:59,240 Speaker 1: enough to get him drafted. And I think if he 2580 02:07:59,320 --> 02:08:00,680 Speaker 1: had to do over and I think he would have 2581 02:08:00,720 --> 02:08:02,920 Speaker 1: probably sat tight in college one more year and given 2582 02:08:03,000 --> 02:08:05,360 Speaker 1: himself a chance to develop and go into this next draft. 2583 02:08:07,000 --> 02:08:09,280 Speaker 1: But so I say, yes, I think that's true. They 2584 02:08:09,320 --> 02:08:11,560 Speaker 1: did forget about him, and now he looks like he's 2585 02:08:11,600 --> 02:08:13,200 Speaker 1: going to sign with the Buffalo Bills. I guess I 2586 02:08:14,200 --> 02:08:16,400 Speaker 1: don't know if it's true or false. I don't accept 2587 02:08:16,440 --> 02:08:19,440 Speaker 1: the word forgot. They all knew who he was, team's 2588 02:08:19,480 --> 02:08:21,720 Speaker 1: interested in quarterbacks. I'm sure took a long look at him. 2589 02:08:22,800 --> 02:08:25,120 Speaker 1: They know Tyree Jackson is and what he can do, 2590 02:08:25,320 --> 02:08:28,160 Speaker 1: and what his flaws are, and what his strengths and 2591 02:08:28,200 --> 02:08:30,880 Speaker 1: weaknesses are. So I'm gonna say false and and forget him. 2592 02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:32,560 Speaker 1: They just didn't choose him, you know, I mean, what 2593 02:08:32,640 --> 02:08:35,160 Speaker 1: do we say? What about the Jake Delagala, Western New Yorker, 2594 02:08:35,840 --> 02:08:39,840 Speaker 1: Central Connecticut State signed with Cincinnati undrafted? They forgot him too. 2595 02:08:40,120 --> 02:08:42,120 Speaker 1: They didn't forget it these guys, They just chose not 2596 02:08:42,240 --> 02:08:45,000 Speaker 1: to draft him. I don't like the word forget. That's 2597 02:08:45,040 --> 02:08:48,200 Speaker 1: my objection. So I'm going false. Finally, the NFL true 2598 02:08:48,240 --> 02:08:51,120 Speaker 1: or false. The Patriots now have the most versatile group 2599 02:08:51,200 --> 02:08:54,480 Speaker 1: of wide receivers in the NFL. By versatile, does that 2600 02:08:54,600 --> 02:09:02,400 Speaker 1: mean not talented? Seriously? Nikkil nikkil uh Harry is their 2601 02:09:02,440 --> 02:09:04,240 Speaker 1: newest pick out of Arizona State. Let me just go, 2602 02:09:04,400 --> 02:09:07,080 Speaker 1: Can I read you the others on the roster, Phillip Dorsett, 2603 02:09:07,360 --> 02:09:11,839 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman uh and here we go, Maurice Harris, Bruce Ellington, 2604 02:09:12,160 --> 02:09:17,760 Speaker 1: Braxton Barrios, Damon Patterson, Matthew Slater. I guess it's versatile. 2605 02:09:18,440 --> 02:09:19,960 Speaker 1: I think Nikil Harry is a chance to be a 2606 02:09:20,000 --> 02:09:23,960 Speaker 1: pretty good player. Dorsett is a is a pretty good player. 2607 02:09:24,480 --> 02:09:26,680 Speaker 1: Edelman is a special player at a special in a 2608 02:09:26,720 --> 02:09:29,320 Speaker 1: special role. Does that mean they're versatile? I guess I 2609 02:09:29,360 --> 02:09:31,840 Speaker 1: don't know how good they are, but yeah, I'll go 2610 02:09:31,960 --> 02:09:36,560 Speaker 1: true Again, I don't like the word versatile. They're versatile? Sure, 2611 02:09:36,760 --> 02:09:39,360 Speaker 1: how good are they? Yeah? I don't know if you 2612 02:09:39,400 --> 02:09:41,680 Speaker 1: can say, because listen, there's a bunch of names there 2613 02:09:41,720 --> 02:09:44,720 Speaker 1: nobody knows, uh. And the names that you do know, 2614 02:09:44,920 --> 02:09:47,000 Speaker 1: like Nikil Harry's, because we just got him draft, we 2615 02:09:47,040 --> 02:09:50,680 Speaker 1: don't have to can play to say they're the most 2616 02:09:50,720 --> 02:09:52,720 Speaker 1: in the NFL. That's thirty two other teams with some 2617 02:09:52,800 --> 02:09:55,360 Speaker 1: pretty good players on their rosters. I don't know if 2618 02:09:55,360 --> 02:09:57,200 Speaker 1: you can say that, so I'm gonna I'm gonna say false. Listen, 2619 02:09:57,240 --> 02:09:59,160 Speaker 1: they're just another team with the guys. Some of them 2620 02:09:59,280 --> 02:10:01,400 Speaker 1: can do something well, some can do other things well. 2621 02:10:01,840 --> 02:10:04,120 Speaker 1: Uh you know, Josh Josh Gordon is also on the 2622 02:10:04,320 --> 02:10:07,680 Speaker 1: on the Patriots roster. He just signed but he's not active. 2623 02:10:08,000 --> 02:10:10,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, they they've got a good group of guys 2624 02:10:10,400 --> 02:10:12,640 Speaker 1: they like, and they've got one of the all time 2625 02:10:12,680 --> 02:10:14,640 Speaker 1: great throwers thrown to them, so they're gonna play better 2626 02:10:14,880 --> 02:10:18,080 Speaker 1: than they would otherwise. But I'm gonna listen, they're good 2627 02:10:18,120 --> 02:10:21,520 Speaker 1: groups receivers, they're they're coached extremely well. They're gonna be 2628 02:10:21,640 --> 02:10:26,520 Speaker 1: very productive with that quarterback in that offense. But listen there, Yeah, 2629 02:10:26,840 --> 02:10:29,120 Speaker 1: they're the same as any every other So I'm gonna 2630 02:10:29,120 --> 02:10:31,120 Speaker 1: say false. They're they're a good group, but they're not 2631 02:10:32,840 --> 02:10:35,040 Speaker 1: the most or the best at anything. Hey. Yeah, one 2632 02:10:35,080 --> 02:10:39,000 Speaker 1: correction for us from Twitter. Uh can't get right tweets 2633 02:10:39,040 --> 02:10:42,440 Speaker 1: in um nikkil Harry was not the first wide receivers drafted. 2634 02:10:42,480 --> 02:10:47,600 Speaker 1: It was Marquee Hollywood Brown. The Baltimore Ravens slightly earlier 2635 02:10:48,600 --> 02:10:50,960 Speaker 1: to the Baltimore Ravens, the Oklahoma Wide Out. We're taking 2636 02:10:51,000 --> 02:10:53,040 Speaker 1: a break. We're back One Bills Live from One Bill's Drive. 2637 02:10:53,360 --> 02:11:10,200 Speaker 1: This is Buffalo Bills Radio. What have we learned from 2638 02:11:10,240 --> 02:11:12,880 Speaker 1: today's show? Brought to you by Advanced Alarm providing Western 2639 02:11:13,000 --> 02:11:16,200 Speaker 1: New York's homes and businesses with the finest and security 2640 02:11:16,240 --> 02:11:18,680 Speaker 1: and home theater. The preferred alarm and home theater or 2641 02:11:18,720 --> 02:11:20,680 Speaker 1: provider of the Buffalo Bills. We had a good conversation 2642 02:11:20,720 --> 02:11:23,240 Speaker 1: with Dawson Knox early on in the show. Seems like 2643 02:11:23,320 --> 02:11:26,040 Speaker 1: just minutes ago, Bill's tight end third round pick, Dawson 2644 02:11:26,120 --> 02:11:28,760 Speaker 1: Knox from Old Miss talked to us about being drafted 2645 02:11:28,840 --> 02:11:32,840 Speaker 1: in the third round by the Bills. No, honestly, I 2646 02:11:32,960 --> 02:11:36,160 Speaker 1: wasn't sure because as I was talking with my agent, 2647 02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:38,960 Speaker 1: we were thinking, good, you know, we can the later 2648 02:11:39,080 --> 02:11:40,720 Speaker 1: the third round, and we were thinking it was either 2649 02:11:40,760 --> 02:11:42,080 Speaker 1: going to be the Patriots at the end of the 2650 02:11:42,200 --> 02:11:44,360 Speaker 1: round or it was going to be somebody in the 2651 02:11:44,440 --> 02:11:47,400 Speaker 1: fourth on the next day. Right. So when I got 2652 02:11:47,480 --> 02:11:50,440 Speaker 1: that call, I actually hadn't seen the trade yet. They 2653 02:11:50,480 --> 02:11:53,880 Speaker 1: hadn't announced it on the TV, so I saw a 2654 02:11:53,960 --> 02:11:56,560 Speaker 1: New York number coming in. I was you know, I 2655 02:11:56,680 --> 02:11:59,560 Speaker 1: really had no idea who was going to be, so 2656 02:11:59,640 --> 02:12:01,640 Speaker 1: when I answered the phone, I kind of realized the 2657 02:12:01,720 --> 02:12:04,960 Speaker 1: trade happened, and then I rediscrat, you know, super excited. 2658 02:12:05,000 --> 02:12:06,960 Speaker 1: From there, it's kind of hard to describe that feeling. 2659 02:12:07,640 --> 02:12:09,400 Speaker 1: He tried and did a good job describing that feeling 2660 02:12:09,440 --> 02:12:12,200 Speaker 1: there thanks to Dawnson Act. We had Armando Salgaro from 2661 02:12:12,240 --> 02:12:14,720 Speaker 1: the Miami Herald with us. We got talking about Josh 2662 02:12:14,840 --> 02:12:17,520 Speaker 1: Rosen going to the Dolphins, and we asked, Armando, what's 2663 02:12:17,680 --> 02:12:20,600 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen's what's his role going to be in there Miami? 2664 02:12:20,760 --> 02:12:23,520 Speaker 1: Is he starter, potential franchise quarterback or just a one 2665 02:12:23,600 --> 02:12:28,440 Speaker 1: year feeling. Here's what he said, So Josh Rosen gets 2666 02:12:28,480 --> 02:12:32,160 Speaker 1: a chance to win the job. I suppose he's gonna 2667 02:12:32,200 --> 02:12:34,680 Speaker 1: win the job, and then he gets a year to 2668 02:12:34,800 --> 02:12:38,400 Speaker 1: prove that he is in fact, you know, the quarterback 2669 02:12:38,480 --> 02:12:40,680 Speaker 1: that was picked in the top ten a year ago 2670 02:12:40,840 --> 02:12:45,280 Speaker 1: by Arizona. In that year, the Dolphins will be checking 2671 02:12:45,360 --> 02:12:49,240 Speaker 1: out to see if he is one productive to a leader, 2672 02:12:49,760 --> 02:12:51,640 Speaker 1: a guy that they want to be the face of 2673 02:12:51,720 --> 02:12:57,040 Speaker 1: the franchise. If in that one year he gets it done, 2674 02:12:57,200 --> 02:13:03,800 Speaker 1: then great, then it's all settled. But if he doesn't produce, 2675 02:13:03,960 --> 02:13:07,640 Speaker 1: if there is a question mark, if the Dolphins find 2676 02:13:07,760 --> 02:13:11,320 Speaker 1: themselves at the top of the draft again next year, 2677 02:13:11,640 --> 02:13:15,440 Speaker 1: they'll pick a quarterback. Poor Josh Rosen. I don't really 2678 02:13:15,520 --> 02:13:19,360 Speaker 1: mean that, but look, most first around quarterbacks get at 2679 02:13:19,400 --> 02:13:21,080 Speaker 1: least a couple of years. If they're gonna watch out 2680 02:13:21,080 --> 02:13:23,200 Speaker 1: to watch out, he's got this. If he watches out 2681 02:13:23,240 --> 02:13:25,320 Speaker 1: this year. If he's not the guy, he's done right 2682 02:13:25,600 --> 02:13:29,360 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Oh no, okay, no, are you kidding me? 2683 02:13:29,600 --> 02:13:32,480 Speaker 1: Two teams at that position. If he was a wide out, 2684 02:13:32,600 --> 02:13:36,880 Speaker 1: maybe okay, And it all depends on what he looks like. 2685 02:13:37,240 --> 02:13:38,840 Speaker 1: There's gonna be some coaches out there thinking, you know, well, 2686 02:13:38,840 --> 02:13:40,440 Speaker 1: they didn't re using him, right, they didn't let him 2687 02:13:40,440 --> 02:13:41,960 Speaker 1: do this, they didn't let him do that. He'll be 2688 02:13:42,000 --> 02:13:44,880 Speaker 1: all right.
