It has been coming a 23 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 4: little bit sooner. I'm usually more of a Draft week guy, 24 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 4: but by popular demand, people need it a little bit 25 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 4: ahead of time. So it's moving up a week. It's 26 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 4: been moving up a week a week a year, as 27 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 4: Paths of the Draft has been moving back a week 28 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 4: and a week a year. But we're we're gonna eventually 29 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 4: we're gonna align right there. I might just be the 30 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 4: first episode of Pass of the Draft. 31 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: Who knows Path to the Draft is on its way 32 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: to being the day but you know, starting and ending 33 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: the day before the draft. But I mean, we used 34 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: to do that thing for like like eight weeks. It 35 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: used to be like two months a Path of the Draft. 36 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 4: Oh and now, by the way, it's like two weeks 37 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 4: till the combine, so oh, I know. And that's what 38 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 4: it feels like. 39 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going fast. All right, boys? You ready for 40 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: this thing? Yeah, let's go. Let's get I'm gonna rattle 41 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: off the top. I'm gonna rattle off top ten picks 42 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: and then we'll pick it apart and have some fun here. 43 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: All right, here we go the Chicago Bears. I have 44 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: the Bears trading justin Fields, taking Caleb Williams with the 45 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: first pick. Bucky, you're Carolina tar Heels quarterback. Drake may 46 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: have him going to Washington. At number two. Adam Peters, 47 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: new head coach, coming new general manager in place. A 48 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: lot of times that's a company by a new quarterback. 49 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: Very close there with him and Jade and Daniels. We'll 50 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: get into that discussion after I get to these top ten. 51 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: Jade Daniels going three to the Patriots. Marvin Harrison Junior, 52 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: who I compared to Larry Fitzgerald, goes to the Arizona 53 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: Cardinals falls in their lap. At number four. The Chargers 54 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: with a lot of options here, which we'll get into. 55 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: I had them taking Rome at doomsday, the wide receiver 56 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: from Washington. Another wide receiver goes six Molik neighbors to 57 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: the Giants as they continue to search for some more speed. 58 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: So we've got three quarterbacks followed by three wideouts. Then 59 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: we get Joe Alt to tackle from Notre Dame go 60 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: on to Tennessee to try and help that anemic offensive line. 61 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: The Falcons in their ever forever pursuit of pass rushers 62 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: that they never seem to be able to nail down. 63 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: They get Dallas Turner out of Alabama with the eighth pick, 64 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: followed by another pass rusher, Jared Verse out of Florida State, 65 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: to the Bears with their second pick, and then the 66 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: tenth pick. It's the Jets, and I figure ever mock draft, 67 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: we'll all be doing the same thing. We'll all take 68 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: the tackles, We're all going to shake them up in 69 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: a jar, and we'll just pull a different one out 70 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: every time. For the Jets, who feel like the most 71 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 1: committed to a position in this draft, which is upgrading 72 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: the offensive line, I had them taking Telisi Fuaga, one 73 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: of my favorites, out of Oregon State, with the tenth pick. 74 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: So that's the top ten right there. Buck, I'll give 75 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: you the first crack at it here. What stands out 76 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: to you? 77 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: Okay, So there's so many things to stand out, but 78 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the premise that we've talked about 79 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 2: late where we've kind of talked about the four p's 80 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: where we talked about the marquee positions and how they 81 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: should be allocated in the draft. So see three quarterbacks, 82 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: three wide receivers, two edge rushers, and an offensive tackle. 83 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: So in those fees. 84 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: We talked about passers, pass catchers, pass rushers, and pass protectors, 85 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 2: and in the top ten you made sure that you 86 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 2: checked off all the boxes when it came to. 87 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: The premium positions. 88 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: The three quarterbacks in the three pass catchers are really 89 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: interesting because we hear so much about teams talk about 90 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: I'm on line of scrimmage team, but we don't see 91 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: any line of scrimmage players come off. 92 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 3: From the seventh overall pick and it's Joe Alt from 93 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 3: notre to day. 94 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. I actually, since you mentioned Joealt, I think one 95 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 4: of the things that kind of captures my attention. In 96 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 4: addition to obviously the quarterbacks going one, two, three, I 97 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 4: think we all heard Girod Mayo talk about when he 98 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 4: was asked about, you know, where they might be leaning 99 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: in the draft, he says, we're going to do a 100 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 4: lot of research on a position that is very important 101 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 4: to a franchise, Like, well, yeah, it would make some 102 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 4: sense there for sure. And Girod is a common sense 103 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 4: type of guy. But Joe Walt being not only being 104 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 4: the first tackle, but we have two tackles go in 105 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 4: the top ten DJ, none of them named Oluvashanu, who 106 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 4: is in the first round, and we'll get to him 107 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 4: here in just a little bit. 108 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: But I did. 109 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 4: I remember being on the field in State College this 110 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,239 Speaker 4: year for Penn State game and talking to guys and scouts, 111 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 4: a bunch of scouts obviously there. They have a ton 112 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 4: of draftable players, as they do every year, and the 113 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 4: consensus among you know, the five or six guys that 114 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: were standing there was that Olu was still the top 115 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 4: tackle even though he hadn't had the year that maybe 116 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 4: we thought he was going to after a year last 117 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 4: year where he might have been the top tackle off 118 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 4: the board, but decided to go back to school. So 119 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 4: I guess my question to you, DJ, is why both 120 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 4: Joe alt and Talisi Fuaga at this point ahead of Fashanu. 121 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: Their tape was better this year. And I did Fashanu 122 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 1: over the summer, and I thought he was, you know, 123 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: I the great I gave him before last year's draft, 124 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: he would have been the first offensive tackle off the board. 125 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: I did him over the summer, did a little more 126 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: work on him again, all off of twenty two tape. 127 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: It was like I confirmed kind of what I believed 128 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: this year was not as good a year for him. 129 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: And there are some stuff that popped up, specifically in 130 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: the Ohio State game, which was rough. He was on 131 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: the ground a ton in that game. He got folded 132 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: a couple of times, you know, bucking. You know, when 133 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: you're going through this and you write OTG on your 134 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: paper and then when you've when you've put those marks 135 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: next to it a bunch of times, that starts to 136 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: worry a little bit here. That's a balance issue. There's 137 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of tightness that showed up there. I 138 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: to me, I'm on a quest with him just to 139 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: kind of figure out. I know we had a knee, 140 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: believe he had I think he had a scope or 141 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: something at the end of last year. I'm gonna I'm 142 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: gonna use these next months try and dig in on 143 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: that and find out what happened, because to me, he 144 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: did not look like the same player this year that 145 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: I saw last year. So and talking to teams around 146 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: the league and people, let me clarify that, because I 147 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: think people people will say, there's no draft boards are set. 148 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: You can't say this team has this player that player. 149 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 1: Let's put it this way. I talked to general managers 150 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: all the time, a bunch of them, and when they 151 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 1: tell me how they kind of have these guys right now. 152 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: It's not a concrete statement, but when they say there's 153 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: three or four other tackles that we like better than 154 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: him in this draft class, and it wasn't like they 155 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: were crushing him. There's just some other guys who played 156 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: really well this year year. So they're gonna have these 157 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: tackles and all different orders. I tweeted at the other day, like, 158 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: we have eight to ten tackles that are potential first 159 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: round picks, Like there's a ton of them. That was 160 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: my overall. Oh it's loaded, it's loaded, loaded, and we'll 161 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: get to a bunch of more of these names. But 162 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna have them in all different orders. And I'm 163 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: asked to learn more about Ola because again, he was 164 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: awesome in twenty two. He was not as good. The 165 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: Michigan game was not great for him either. So those 166 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: two games, they just they worried me a little bit. 167 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: So that's on that one. The other thing I was 168 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: going to talk about Drake May versus Jayden Daniels. I 169 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 1: do believe Caleb, just from an ability standpoint, has got 170 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: some rare stuff. So I do think he's in his 171 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: own class there and people say, oh, the numbers, and 172 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: you're going to see a bunch of stuff about how 173 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: he played against better opponents. That's going to be a 174 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: popular thing. I would just say, when you go back 175 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: and look at the tape, even when they're playing some 176 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: bad teams, teams are getting pressure with three rushers, like 177 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: they were not good up front, especially on the interior. 178 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: He was under constant dress which did lead to some 179 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: of the bad habit that kicked in. But let's gamble 180 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: on the ability here. The ability is off the charts 181 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: with him, and then with Drake versus Jayden. Jaden's tape 182 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: this year, Buck was better than Drake's tape. Drake has 183 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: what I saw last year and putting it together with 184 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: what I saw this year and different. It's it's it's 185 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: a challenge in scouting to take people outside of their 186 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: environment to say, Okay, Jaden's throwing from a lot of 187 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,679 Speaker 1: clean pockets, Jaden throwing to neighbors, and and to oh, gosh, 188 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: I've got him in my first round Brian Thomas Jonas. Yeah, 189 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: he's got studs, so he's in a better environment. But 190 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: he played great. I mean, he played lights out to 191 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: the point where I'm not saying that's in concrete for 192 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: me right now, I'm gonna let these guys travel together 193 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: through the process. I want, you know, and really dig 194 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: in and study them and kind of sort that thing out. 195 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: But I ended up going with Drake prototypical, the size, 196 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,599 Speaker 1: the physicality, the athleticism. He has a lot of a 197 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: lot of tools in his bag. I think he can 198 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: drive it a little bit more than Jayden can. But 199 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: Jayden's tape flat out was better this year, so that's 200 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: going to be interesting debate. 201 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I'm i'm I'm, I'm all with that, and 202 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: I think it's interesting. One how big is this divide 203 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 2: between Caleb Williams and the rest of the fact, Like 204 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 2: is it a significant divide or is it? Are they touching? 205 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 2: If it was the cards on the thing, like, how 206 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: did you have those guys broken up? 207 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a difference in grade there. I mean 208 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: to me to be to be fully candid, like Caleb 209 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: Williams like on my scale, like a six eighth grade, 210 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 1: so that puts him at the top. Then, uh, Jayden 211 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: Daniels was I have him in like that six seven grade, 212 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: So just this's just one grade below him, whereas Drake 213 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: may is the wild card. Like this a six five grade, 214 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: So technically the six five is below the six seven 215 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: and Jayden Daniels, but a six five it's just kind 216 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: of complicated. But you can slot a six five up 217 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: or down. It's basically for lack. 218 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 4: Of a top fifty. 219 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: You know, no, no, no, no, no, this is just 220 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: a Mons draft. But that is that is a boom 221 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: or bust. 222 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 3: So sure, go. 223 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 2: Ahead and no, because like so, here's the thing, and 224 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: here's always been the challenge, right like so, naturally you 225 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 2: would have some allegiance to the tar heel. But I've 226 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: said this all year. He didn't play as well this 227 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 2: year as he did last year. And if we're doing 228 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 2: it off of tape, if we're doing it off production 229 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: and performance as opposed to potential, those other guys played better. 230 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 2: I would even say Michael Pennix played better. What goes 231 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: in Drake May's favor is he's the prototype, right size, arm, talent, 232 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: ray kid, leadership in tangibles, all those other things check 233 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 2: out in his favor. But if we're looking at the tape, 234 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 2: those other guys are better performers, and so scouts have 235 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 2: to kind of figure out where they are in the 236 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: team building process, what they can put around him, and 237 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: those things before making that decision on whether it's Drake 238 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 2: May or Jayden Daniels or any of the other quarterbacks 239 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 2: in the conversation, because his performance doesn't equate to where 240 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 2: his potential grade would put him coming off. 241 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: The ball, I can, I can I give you one thing, 242 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: one thing on that, and this is I'd be totally 243 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: frank and honest. There's always recency bias in scouting, okay, 244 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: and there's always things that get stuck in your head. 245 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: And when I look at this situation and I got 246 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: to be careful, I want to make a mistake on this. 247 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: But I'm sure in the back of my head, even 248 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: if it's not the front of my mind, I gambled 249 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: on the undersized quarterback last year as my top pick. 250 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: I had a prototypical guy in CJ. Stroud right there 251 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: with him, and I gambled. Didn't work out. So now 252 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: I've got Jane Daniels, who now has put on weight. 253 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: Now he's not like he was. I just at Arizona 254 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: State he was one hundred and seventy something pounds. Like 255 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: he's put on weight, he's but Drake May is the prototype. 256 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: So I'm sure, even though that's not like on my 257 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: paper in my notes, I'm sure in the back of 258 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: my mind that's probably has an effect. 259 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 2: I'm with you on that because everything last year, if 260 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 2: we go back to last year, everything suggests that c. J. 261 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 2: Stroud should be the top guy based on the prototypical 262 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 2: dimensions that have played in the league, all that other stuff. 263 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: How we saw him play in the offense, he's from 264 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 2: the pocket, all the thing. We didn't do that, so 265 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 2: naturally the next year sometimes there's a tendency to overcorrect, 266 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: and so it'd be interesting as we get down the 267 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: line and we look at Drake and yep, look, JJ 268 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: McCarthy is going to kind of benefit from some of 269 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 2: that prototypical size stuff that. 270 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 3: We'll talk about, like what do we do with all this? 271 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 4: So it makes sense to me last thing I'll say 272 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 4: on this, and I know we'll move into the next 273 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 4: batch of picks here from eleven to twenty. But when 274 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 4: you look at both those guys, I think there's some 275 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 4: congruencies with players we've seen come out of at that position, 276 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 4: come out of those schools in recent past. I mean, 277 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 4: like you remember what happened with Sam Howell in Chapel 278 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 4: Hill when he had all that talent was there, right, 279 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 4: and we were talking about Sam Howell as a potential 280 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 4: first round pick. Well, all that talent leaves and then 281 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 4: he didn't have as great as a year and bam 282 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 4: he falls all the way down to the fifth No, 283 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 4: obviously that's not happening here with Drake May. But then 284 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 4: you know, you just you kind of think about how 285 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 4: year to year production can ultimately affect how a prospect 286 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 4: obviously is viewed. And then with Jaden Daniels, doesn't this 287 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 4: feel in a way very similar to the way we 288 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: talked about Joe Burrow in that final year of average 289 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 4: right their first year on campus, you know, it wasn't great, 290 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 4: and then you know, had some great moments certainly, but 291 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 4: then exploded with massive talent right there on the on 292 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 4: the outside. And Brian Thomas and Lak Neighbors, and I 293 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 4: just I think some of those kind of draft profiles 294 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 4: as you look look back in history are kind of 295 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 4: interesting as well as we follow both those guys. 296 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: Hereditch, yeah, and you guys brought it up. I mean, 297 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: this is not my top fifty list a mock draft. 298 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: I do kind of more off of what I'm hearing 299 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: and what I think is going to happen, and then 300 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: I'll stack them up with how I have them in 301 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: my top fifty, and that is not there's nothing to me. 302 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: I would say, I feel feel pretty confident Caleb Williams. 303 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: You know, unless I learned something along the way that 304 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: I don't know at this point in time, probably going 305 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: to go wire to wire is my top guy, and 306 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: then there's going to be a fight between these other 307 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: guys and really kind of sort it out as we 308 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: go along. But make no mistake, the tape on Jayden 309 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 1: Daniels is really good. The one thing I would say 310 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: and concern he got here a couple of times he 311 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: gets the stuffing knocked out of him. I mean, he's 312 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: got to do a better job of protecting himself. You 313 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: can't play that pin pall style of football at the 314 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: next level, so that's something he'll have to work on. 315 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: All right, Let's say quick break, we come back. We'll 316 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: jump in to pick number eleven. Keep this train moving, 317 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: all right, guys, I'll rip off eleven to twenty here 318 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: and then pick out where you want to go. Eleven 319 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: is Byron Murphy, defensive tackle to the Minnesota Vikings. Twelve 320 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: is Terry and Arnold Corner, who I think is the 321 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: best corner of the drafts are excellent player going to 322 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: the Denver broncos Pi with patz er Tan. How about 323 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: that tandem. To be honest with you, my nuclear mock, 324 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: but I was working on. I had him going fifth 325 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: to the Chargers, and you know, even with all those 326 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: players there, because the Chargers are so bad, yeah, so 327 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: bad at corner. I thought this will be an option 328 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: for them, but I didn't think the world was ready 329 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: for that yet. But I think Terry and Arnold has 330 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: got a chance to be a top ten pick. Fishanu 331 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: here he goes off the board here to the Raiders 332 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: at thirteen, oh Nicks quarterback, but I mean it just 333 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: swallowed hard to the New Orleans Saints at fourteen, Rock Bowers. 334 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: The tight end is going to be interesting discussion based 335 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: off the talent versus the positional value. He goes fifteen 336 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: to the Colts. Troy Fontanu or Fatanu. I'll figure that 337 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: pronunciation out. I apologize, Troy. I'll get there. That is 338 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: to the Seattle Seahawks at sixteen. Someone who can play guard. 339 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: It could be an all pro type guard, but can 340 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: play tackle if you needed to as well. They've invested 341 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: in some young tackles. Quinyon Mitchell, a corner from Toledo. 342 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: Get to know that name. He's going to run in 343 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: the LITW fourth thres going to test like a freak. 344 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: He had a ton of ball production in twenty two, 345 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: wasn't much much in twenty three. He goes to Bucky's 346 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: Jags where they have some needs there Cincinnati. JC Latham 347 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: a tackle who could be he could be the seventh pick. 348 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean he's again. You shake up these tackles and 349 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 1: whatever order you want. But the Alabama big tackle going 350 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: to the Bengals. The Chargers are sorry the Rams. I 351 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: wanted to put a quarterback here, and I think there's 352 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: a real chance they take a quarterback herejmc not rule 353 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: that out. Yeah, you got JJ McCarthy. There is what 354 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: about Adam taking They gets TESSM Bennett. Yeah, exactly. They 355 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: could take a quarterback. Leatu Latu ed rusher from UCLA, 356 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: very talented. He was going nineteen there to the Rams 357 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: twenty Why not go shopping at the same store. The 358 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: Steelers go back to Georgia. Last year they got Broderick Jones, 359 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: got Dannel Washington the tight end. Now they're bringing to 360 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: Marius Mims and they're trying to build a big, physical 361 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: bully team there in Pittsburgh. So there we go, eleven 362 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: through twenty. Rhtt. I'll let you have the first crack 363 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: at this before Bucky gets to Bonex. 364 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 4: Go ahead, Well, okay, well that's that's where I was going. 365 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 4: But I mean, yeah, let's just let's jump right in 366 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 4: because I mean, are we are we talking about, you know, 367 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 4: a better Taysom Hill here with Bo Nicks? Is this? 368 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: Uh? 369 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's quite the athlete that that 370 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 4: Taysom Hill is, but I do. I do think that's 371 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 4: kind of interesting there. I mean, my question is, you know, 372 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 4: if you're gonna go with the Saints there, you know, 373 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 4: why not Michael Pennix? Why not JJ McCarthy. How much 374 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 4: better is is Bo Nicks at this point of the 375 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 4: process than those two guys who will be down and 376 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 4: mobile at the Senior Bowl, which I think is super 377 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 4: cool to see them down there again, maybe on opposite 378 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 4: teams for round three with Nix and Pennix after they're 379 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: this year was really fun watching those two guys and 380 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 4: their teams go at it up in the final year 381 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 4: of the PAC twelve. I think the Saints gotta, you know, 382 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 4: they gotta have one, whether this is it for Derek 383 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 4: Carr or whether you know there's another year or two 384 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 4: for Derek Carr. It does feel like the quarterback succession 385 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 4: we have waited far too long to figure out, you know, 386 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 4: since Drew Brees has left, and even before he was 387 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 4: on his way out that they needed to find someone 388 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 4: to plug in their long term. So let's start there 389 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 4: with that buck with BOTNICKX to the Saints, and then 390 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 4: I've got some questions on Bowers too after that. 391 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: Okay, so here's what I'll say about and watching him 392 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: for a long time in college, because he was in 393 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: college for a long time. Uh, the experience sixty one six. 394 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: Sixty one stars. 395 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 2: And so if we're doing this and we talk about 396 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: the quarterbacks that have had it meaning to throw CJ. 397 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,919 Speaker 2: Strode out, but when people are looking at rock Pretty 398 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: and even for it to a lesson to like in 399 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 2: o'connall guys that were older, guys that had significant experience, 400 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: Rock Pretty particularly had a lot of experience, won a 401 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 2: lot of games. 402 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 3: One thing that we can say about Botnix Is both. 403 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 2: Learned how to win impact big games while he was 404 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 2: at Oregon, took all of that experience, the negative experiences 405 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: from Auburn translated played at a different level. I could 406 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: see some intrigue about him because one thing, we know, 407 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 2: he's mature. He has great and tangibles. He has enough talent, 408 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: he's athletic to give you some of the off scheduled 409 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: quarterback run game stuff that you want. There's a lot 410 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 2: to like about him. It's just just whether does that 411 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 2: value come in in the first round. 412 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 3: People'll talk about quarterbacks being pushed up. 413 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 2: I could see that conversation heating up around bo Nix, 414 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 2: Michael Pennix, and JJ McCarthy as people trying to sort 415 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 2: out that tier of quarterbacks as we get closer to 416 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 2: the draft. 417 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: All right, so I'll give you my Bonnx here. Let's 418 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: start with the a's. Let's start with the letter A 419 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: and kind of where that is and his evaluation and 420 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: Bucky hit on some of it. I love the fact 421 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: that he's been through adversity, and you can say the 422 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: same for Penis. You know when we talk about Penix, 423 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: but I love that he's been through adversity anticipation, accuracy, athleticism, 424 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: and we always point out the fact that completion percentage 425 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: does not equal accuracy ball placement. Ball placement is different 426 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: than a completion percentage number. That being said, this dude 427 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: completed like seventy eight percent of his passes this year. 428 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: He was incredibly accurate. He processes extremely fast, He gets 429 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: through things. The ball is out, it's where it needs 430 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: to be, it's on time, it's accurate. I think his 431 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: arm is going to be the big question mark. How 432 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: much you know, how much horsepower does he have in 433 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: that arm. I'm going to get a chance and to 434 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: see him down there as a Senior Bowl, and I'll 435 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: have an answer to that question. I have a feeling 436 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: that the arm's going to be better than people think 437 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: once they get a chance to be around him and 438 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 1: watch him spend it. Ret you've probably seen him at Manning, 439 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 1: I would imagine he's really good. So yeah, yeah, I 440 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 1: think he'll be able to spin it better than people anticipate. 441 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: So now with the experience, with all that he's got, 442 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: he's ready to go. Now it. We talked about two 443 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: of the other day. We talked about the Dolphins, and 444 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: we said they built their team a certain way. That 445 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: team was not built to go play in minus thirty 446 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: degree Windshiel, I don't think you're Bo Nicks. I don't 447 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,479 Speaker 1: think if you're the you know, if you're the New 448 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: York Jets, do you take bow Knicks. No, I don't 449 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: think he fits there in New Orleans Saints, where we 450 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,360 Speaker 1: saw what Drew Brees did for his career in that building, 451 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: in that environment, in that atmosphere, as an anticipation, accurate, 452 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 1: quick decision maker. I've seen this episode before, and Drew 453 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: Brees somebody who played a lot of football in college. 454 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: Somebody was very accomplished. So I don't use that lightly 455 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: when I throw around the Drew Brees comp But I 456 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: think this guy from an intelligence, maturity, accuracy, anticipation, athleticism 457 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: even is comparable to Drew. And Drew came into the league. 458 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: He could move around pretty good. I like him. I 459 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: think he's a good football player. He's not for everybody, 460 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: but I thought in New Orleans, I think he'd be 461 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: the best quarterback option that they'd have. I'm waiting for 462 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: the pushback here, where's the put Well? 463 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 2: I would say this because we talked about like your 464 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 2: quarterback being built for the location. Okay, well, the benefit 465 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 2: of bow Knick's playing in New Orleans is not only 466 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 2: the games that he plays in New Orleans. 467 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: So that's eight or nine day he's going to play inside. 468 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 2: The Atlanta Falcons play inside, So now that makes us 469 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 2: go up to maybe ten. Tampa Bay Buccaneers play outside, 470 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 2: but it's warm weather. Talking about eleven games and favorable 471 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 2: conditions and Carolina, depending on when you play them, he 472 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: may play twelve games in control conditions where if the 473 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 2: arm is an issue, it's not really a major issue. 474 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: I believe this. 475 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: People have talked about John Gruten not initially joining the 476 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 2: staff but kind of being around. To me, bow Knicks 477 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 2: is a John Gruten type quarterback. And so if you're 478 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 2: Dennis Allen, you're leaning on someone that maybe you regard 479 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 2: as a mentor, who is Derek Carr like because they 480 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 2: have an affinity for Derek Carr, where bo Nis could 481 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 2: certainly fall into that category and kind of move up 482 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: the charts as they're looking for someone to be the 483 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 2: air appearent to Derek Carr. 484 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would touch on Ret's question two here. I 485 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: know you mentioned Broc Bowers. Bowers is going to be 486 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: one of those ones where top fifty, well, my top 487 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: fifty list comes out probably going to be one on 488 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: my top five to seven players in the entire draft. 489 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: And then you just have to make that decision of 490 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 1: where you are at the tight end position and how 491 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: high you want to take a tight end because Kyle 492 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: Pitts was the most talented tight end that I've ever 493 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: evaluated and hasn't hasn't moved the needle for that team. 494 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: Plus what the cost of what you're paying that rookie 495 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: tight end versus the top of the market of tight 496 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: ends and free agency. It's not like you're get into 497 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: big savings. Whereas if I take a wide receiver up there, 498 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: the wide receiver money, now we're pushing up to thirty 499 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: million bucks of years where that market's headed. So now 500 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: you're getting significant value if you get a wide receiver 501 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 1: on a rookie contract versus a tight end first round 502 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: tight end on a rookie contract, there's less. I guess 503 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: surplus value would be the would be the proper term there. 504 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 4: But my question on that on that part was like, 505 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 4: at some point are we going to get too caught 506 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 4: up in the the tags right in those those sort 507 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 4: of distinctions with wide receiver with tight end, Like, could 508 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 4: you make an argument for you know, I know your 509 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 4: grade's going to be higher on Roma duneesay than it 510 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 4: is on rock Bowers, but obviously at different positions, But 511 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,160 Speaker 4: could you make an argument that I gave at a target. 512 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: I gave Neighbors and brock Bauers the same grade. So 513 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: that's a good jump there. 514 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 4: So he's right up in there, right, So I have 515 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 4: Neighbors going. 516 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: With the sixth pick, so and and literally like kind 517 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: of once you go down through the list, he gets 518 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: to I mean really I kind of have the same grades. 519 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: Fuaga is like my last one there, so I would 520 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: say he would be he would probably be between Jared 521 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 1: Vers and Fuaga just like he's in that grade in 522 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: that range. So you're talking about anywhere from like seven 523 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: to ten is probably where he slots in. Like you say, Okay, 524 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: now he's a higher graded player than who I have 525 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 1: going there, you know. Yeah, And but here's the thing. 526 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. The Lions. The Lions are going to 527 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: be a great example. The Lions built out the infrastructure, right, 528 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: they built out the offensive line, they built out the 529 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: defensive line, and then they had the quarterback in place. 530 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: So guess what, Now you have that stuff in place. 531 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: I can take Jamiir Gibbs, I can take Jack Campbell. 532 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: I can go outside the premier positions in the first 533 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: round once the house is the foundations built. But I 534 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 1: think it'd be hard to take the tight end if 535 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: you don't have those foundational things in place. Offensive line, 536 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: defensive line, quarterback. I think those things. And even with 537 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: Amen Rod, they even had the receivers, the receiver in 538 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: place before they decided. 539 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 4: Struck on that in the fourth round. Yeah, I mean 540 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 4: not everybody can say that. 541 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 2: And the other thing you talk about the tight ends, 542 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 2: I think everyone is going to look around. Much like 543 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 2: we look at running backs, They're gonna look around at 544 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 2: the recent success. 545 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: Of Sam look Water too. Maybe look at Luke musk Grave. 546 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 4: I mean the quarter quandary with Kyle Petress there high right, Yeah, 547 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 4: and that's when they traded. 548 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: It's been a great it's been a really good party, 549 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: but they traded. 550 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, So so I think people may it may be 551 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: the last consideration in the first round. You may look 552 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: at other positions, but we say, okay, let's go get 553 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 2: the tight end. 554 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. But that being said, you know if the Chargers 555 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 1: took him with the fifth pick, Hey, he's a great player. 556 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: You've got your left tackle in place, and Slater, you've 557 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: got your quarterback in place in Herbert, depending on what 558 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 1: they do with with you know, with Bosa and Mack, 559 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: They've they've got a lot of those premier positions in place. 560 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: So that would be the team I would circle as 561 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: a team in the top that would do bours. I 562 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: would say the Chargers at five would be one. 563 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,239 Speaker 4: That's what I would think. 564 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, you would throw them into the mix there, Yeah, 565 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: because they have those pieces in place. I would say. 566 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 4: Also in LA, I think the law to selection to 567 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 4: to Los Angeles to the Rams is pretty interesting because 568 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: this is what their first first round pick in I 569 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,120 Speaker 4: don't know, a decade forever, it feels like, but they 570 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 4: have really hit on the day two picks, in particular 571 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 4: Day three too, obviously with Puka this year, but with 572 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 4: Kobe Turner, with Byron Young. I mean, they have really 573 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 4: started to nail those Day two picks. And now you 574 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 4: can go and with your first first round pick, and 575 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 4: however many years it's been, you go get one of 576 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 4: those blue Chippers who we've been talking about on previous podcasts. 577 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 4: There's a reason why edge guys go up early, right 578 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 4: There's a reason why we're talking about all these teams 579 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 4: that are in the postseason right now that have gone 580 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 4: heavy on the edge rush. And obviously the you know, 581 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 4: the Rams being a playoff team, aren't going to be 582 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 4: drafting up in the top ten. But to get you know, 583 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 4: a high end talent like that in Latsu at nineteen 584 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 4: and a premier edge rusher and at a premier position. 585 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 4: This totally makes sense and fits with how we talk 586 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 4: about we like to build out rosters. 587 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: Yep, no question. But the other thing I mentioned them 588 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: with a quarterback, if you look at if you look 589 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: at Shanahan and McVeigh as you know, kissing cousins in 590 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: terms of what they do offensively, and you look at 591 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: what brock Purdy's done, do you think that's why, Like 592 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: Bo Knicks to me, if he does, if he doesn't 593 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: go there, I would think he the Rams wanting to 594 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: plan for the future and saying we don't have to 595 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: we don't have to play a guy right away. But 596 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: I've literally he've already seen the test case. Like if 597 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: you put brock Purdy and Bo Knicks on a field 598 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: and did a private workout and went through all the stuff. Yeah, 599 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: I don't think it looks all that just similar to 600 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 1: be to be totally honest with you, and we've seen 601 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: how efficient that offense can operate with the guys. Yeah, 602 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: go ahead buck the other thing with the rams. 603 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 3: And you talk about like a bow Nix or a 604 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 3: type like that. 605 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: Because they've had so much success hitting on guys that 606 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: are mature, bo Nix is going to be all on that, 607 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, Like just a maturity standpoint. 608 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,959 Speaker 2: You think about pooking the two, how mature he was, 609 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: that's going to be something that I think they. 610 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 3: Begin to hang their hat on. 611 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 2: We're going to make sure that we get the grown 612 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 2: ups in the room that can come in and handle 613 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 2: all the things that come along with being a pro, 614 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 2: and we can get that production right away. 615 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: Yeah. And as we go through the rest of this 616 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: list here, I do want to hit while we're talking quarterbacks, 617 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: I don't have bo Nix in here. I don't have 618 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy in here. And I'll give you the Michael Pennick. 619 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: Sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry, Yeah, Penis and Pennox and McCarthy, 620 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: So Pennix. Look, the semi final game was amazing. We 621 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: talked about it. Just driving the ball, throwing seeds. Rhtt. 622 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: You've known him going all the way back to Indiana. 623 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: The reason they didn't have him in there two Part 624 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: number one. I want to learn more on the medical 625 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: side of things. All the injuries that teams were concerned about, 626 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: So I want to learn what the long term looks like. 627 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 1: They're from the injury standpoint, the durability standpoint. So I 628 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: don't have that answered yet at this time. I will, 629 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: so we'll get to that. The other thing is I 630 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: want to see him at the Senior Bowl up close, too, 631 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: because the questions I have about him as a passer 632 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: are some of the touch things, some of the up 633 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: and over, up and down throws, I should say, those 634 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: second level touch throws. I thought he struggled to control 635 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 1: that a little bit. The more that I stuyed him, 636 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 1: the more that I watched him, everything was flat and firm, 637 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: like the Wold throws are the skinny posts, driving the 638 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: ball deep down the field. He throws a beautiful deep ball, 639 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: the best deep ball in the draft, I mean, loft beautiful. 640 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: The up and down throws over linebackers under safeties that 641 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: require a player touch layered throws another great word. That's 642 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: what I want to see. And that's why you go 643 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: to an All Star game, That's why you do the combine, 644 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: that's why you go to Pro days, because you want 645 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: to see these different you know, clubs in your bag, 646 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: so to speak. I know he's got the driver. I 647 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: want to see how, you know, how he is just 648 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: getting that ball up and down. Buck. Yeah, it looks. 649 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 3: It's a big part of it. 650 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 2: And it's the lasting image, right, The lasting image that 651 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: we have with Michael Pennix is him kind of like 652 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 2: trudging off the field holding his ribs, looking like he's 653 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,239 Speaker 2: been beat to a pulp by Michigan's defense. And so 654 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 2: what it did is it brings all of those injury 655 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: concerns right back front of mine. And so if you're 656 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 2: a scout there, if you're watching the TV copy all 657 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: that other stuff, it does remind you, Ay, he's had. 658 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 3: A couple issues. Let's make sure they were fully confident 659 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 3: in that. 660 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 2: And then because the game was so up and down 661 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 2: and out of whack for I watched an offense that 662 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: the kind of rolled through everybody. You then kind of 663 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: want to kind of reserve judgment on how big of 664 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 2: a grade you want to put on him until you 665 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: can kind of get around him at the Senior Bowl 666 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: and see some of the other stuff that you can't 667 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: really see when you're just studying tape. 668 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: And on JJ McCarthy. I haven't done enough on him 669 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: yet to put him in there, So he was a 670 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: late declaire. I didn't think he was coming out to 671 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: balance you. I thought he was going back to school 672 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: till last minute. I've done a little bit on him, 673 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: but not enough to feel comfortable enough to stamp him 674 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: and put him in the first round. So not saying 675 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: neither of those guys you know don't end up in 676 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 1: there when it's all said and done, and not saying 677 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: they won't have a prominent place on the top fifty 678 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: when that comes out, but information I have right now 679 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: incomplete didn't put him in there. All right, let's go 680 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: through the remainder of the list here of this mock 681 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: draft twenty one to the Dolphins. I had fun with 682 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: this one. I said, screw it, let's take Brian Thomas Jimson. 683 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: Let's just take Brian Thomas Junior, and let's throw him 684 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: in there. With Tyreek Hill and Waddall. Give him some 685 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: size to go along with the undersized speed merchants and 686 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: he can fly to I think it'd be a fun 687 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: weapon to have, especially if they're going to pay to 688 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: a I get another reason to make him look even 689 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: better than he did this past year. Tyler Geiden to 690 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: the Eagles a tackle from Oklahoma. As they are getting 691 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: to the end of the line with one tackle from 692 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Lane Johnson. They go back to Oklahoma and 693 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: they get Tyler Guidon chop Robinson edge rusher going to Houston. 694 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: He's got big tig juice. He's gonna run like in 695 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: the low four fours. He's a free so you put 696 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: him in there opposite of Will Anderson, last year's first 697 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: round pick, Jordan Morgan. Tyron Smith is aging and he's 698 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: up from a contract standpoint. They get Jordan Morgan tackle 699 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: from Arizona. The Green Bay Packers have a type of 700 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: offensive linemen they like. It's versatile guys who are intelligent. 701 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: Graham Barton could play all five spots at a duke 702 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: had him going to the Packers. One of my favorite corners, 703 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: Ennis ray Castraw from Missouri going to the Tampa Bay Bucks. 704 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: Cooper dejen the playmaking machine out at Iowa going to 705 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals, who again I think he could play 706 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: any spot in the secondary and also give a special 707 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: teams value. Davontees walker Man. How about two tar heels 708 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: going in the first round to the Kansas City Chiefs 709 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: to wide out team up with Rashi Rice. Give them 710 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: a nice one to two punch there. Of young players, 711 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: now we get to kind of the best available portion 712 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: on the bottom of the first round. I have Newton 713 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: the DT from Illinois going to the Buffalo Bills, who's 714 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: got some pass rush inside. Nate Wiggins, who's going to 715 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: be a really really big time tester, hightweight speed corner 716 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: out of Clemson going to the Lions who laid McKinstry 717 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: other corner out of Alabama. He goes thirty one to 718 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco, who you know, the question on him, he's 719 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: going to need to run. Well, that's the that's the 720 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: concern with him and the evaluation process, the combine the 721 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: pro day will be big for him to just kind 722 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: of alleviate some of those concerns. And then Troy Franklin, 723 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: let's finish up with another wide receiver the Baltimore Ravens. 724 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: They were stacked in that room. Now with Jay Flowers 725 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: doing what he did last year, Obj doing his thing, 726 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: and now you throw Troy Franklin in the mix, who 727 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: can really really go as well as Bateman. So they 728 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: that would be a fun group there for Lamar Jackson. 729 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: There you have it. That's mock one zero. 730 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 3: Boys. 731 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 4: Boy, let me just jumps off the page to me 732 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 4: right now, is Chop Robinson joining Jonathan Gernard and Will 733 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 4: Anderson down in Houston. 734 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: That is Yeah, I should have mentioned by the way, 735 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: he is coming off of a big year. 736 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, just some serious juice right there. I 737 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 4: mean I've watched I've watched Chop Robinson, you know rec games. 738 00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 4: I mean against big time competition like the Michigan game. 739 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 4: He almost ruined it for Michigan and it's probably part 740 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 4: of the reason why they decided not to throw the 741 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 4: football Michigan in the second half because Chop was destroying 742 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 4: the right side of their offensive line. He's a stuff. 743 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 4: He's also one of those dudes that I view kind 744 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 4: of like TJ. Watt and kind of like Aiden Hutchinson 745 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 4: who can end a game. He's a closer at the end. 746 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 4: Fortunately it was on the wrong side of that, and 747 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 4: the I U was on a verge of an upset, 748 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 4: and he put he put an end to it at 749 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 4: the at the very end with a strip sack, you know, fumble. 750 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 4: It was fantastic. He's just I mean, major burst, major juice. 751 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 1: Love that. 752 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 4: And then I love that he's sandwiched in there between 753 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 4: three tackles as you as you kind of get all that, 754 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 4: all that going might take three tackles. 755 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: Uh I no, no kidding, What do you got about? 756 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 3: Man? 757 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 2: No, Look, I think it's interesting, right when we talk 758 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: about a draft that may not have like twenty two 759 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 2: to twenty four true first rounders, to see so many 760 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 2: skill guys go the combine would be the great separator 761 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 2: for a lot of these guys. How they run, how 762 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 2: they jump, what they look like catching passes, both guys 763 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 2: pass catchers and defensive So it should be a fun 764 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 2: thing to watch. 765 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 3: Should be fun. They even he did the order for 766 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 3: the combine for us so we can see it. 767 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 4: One last one for you here, DJ that I saw 768 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 4: in person was Gerson Johnny Newton at Illinois. I think 769 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 4: that's actually an interesting one there in Buffalo because there 770 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 4: is a little Ed Oliver there as like a smaller 771 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 4: interior player's person quickness. I mean, you go watch that 772 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 4: Minnesota game, the way he beats that right tackle and 773 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 4: then chases the quarterback all the way off to the 774 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,399 Speaker 4: left side, like and I think he's got a little 775 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 4: bit of that scheme versatility and where you can use him, 776 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 4: you know, up and down the line, which will be 777 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 4: pretty valuable for a team, especially down there at the 778 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 4: end of the first round. 779 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, he's a he's a good football player. And 780 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: again that's when you start getting down to the bottom. 781 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,800 Speaker 1: You start just going, Okay, who are the best available 782 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: guys still out there? And not not so much need 783 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: based Again, this is one point zero. We haven't got 784 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: the free agency. There's a lot that's gonna change. I'll 785 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: watch a lot more guys. Lock it in, Yeah, lock 786 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: it in. We'll see some of the names get in 787 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 1: here as a as I continue to work through the tape. 788 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: But buck, Man, you're gonna be up. You're gonna be 789 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: up next man. So I'm looking forward to that one. 790 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: It's uh, it's it's interesting to see at the very 791 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 1: top how that changes the dominoes. I just know like 792 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:28,439 Speaker 1: if I was going to go back to one more point, 793 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 1: I was in that building in New England against the 794 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 1: Chargers and it was so dead in there. It was 795 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: so boring. And they've seen so much good football over 796 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 1: the years, and they have to take a quarterback, take 797 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: a exciting quarterback. And that's why I think we're gonna 798 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: see three quarterbacks go one, two, three when it's all 799 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: said and done. 800 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 2: Well, the funny thing you talk about they they need 801 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 2: some excitement or whatever. Like like you think about Jaden 802 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 2: Daniels and what he does if he plays the way 803 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: that he play the L s U in terms of 804 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 2: like the run pass threat and giving them some sizzle 805 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 2: and some juice. Yeah, Like that's something that they haven't seen. 806 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 2: They haven't had an opportunity to see a dynamic player 807 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 2: at that position. Despite all the time Brady's success, they 808 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 2: haven't seen kind of like that new school quarterback kind 809 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 2: of play in Julette. 810 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, and again we'll see the you know, I think 811 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good fight, a good battle between 812 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 1: Drake May and Jade and Daniels as we go, you know, 813 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: through this entire process, we'll see how it all shakes out. 814 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: One more thing, guys. I was gonna tell you this. 815 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: I had a recommendation to uh, a person who's involved 816 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: in interviews for these coaches and GM jobs. I was 817 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: talking to someone who's been in the room and they're 818 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,399 Speaker 1: part of this decision group as they're trying to make 819 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,320 Speaker 1: this call, and I said, can we I think it 820 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: would be very you know, fan friendly. If like the 821 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: dunk contest where you just hold up like a number 822 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: like number nine ten. I like the interview, like, just 823 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: give me like a number that was eight five eight 824 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: five on that interview and then we kind of follow 825 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: it along.
