Everybody is safe. 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: Everybody was running to the fire, except for Fritzy, who 5 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: ran for the exit. 6 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,280 Speaker 2: I am extra safe. 7 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 3: But the big german came in, and he is a 8 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 3: firefighter and ems by trade by day, and he came in, 9 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 3: went right to the fire and helped put out what 10 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,199 Speaker 3: could have been a disaster. Fire alarm went off. Everybody 11 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 3: is safe, We're good, and we'll proceed with caution. I 12 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 3: don't know what this means for a Sports Emmy, but 13 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 3: maybe we submit. Oh no, it's too late. We already 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 3: submitted for this year. 15 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 4: This would be for next year. 16 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, who knows what could happen in the interim here? Marvin, okay, no, 17 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: I'm still basking in. Oh the long arms, no, thirty 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: one inches long? 19 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 5: Yes? 20 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I did it? You did so? Proud of you? 21 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 2: Did you call your mom? 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 5: I did? 23 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: He's like congract stat of the Day brought to you 24 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 3: by Pennine America, the official trading cards for The Dan 25 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 3: Patrick Show. Lewis Riddick for the Mothership recapping the combine 26 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: and Jeremiah Love, who was my second pick for the 27 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,559 Speaker 3: Heisman Trophy. He looked great as far as speed goes. 28 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 3: There was nothing that he was going to do with 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 3: the combine that was going to change my opinion. 30 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 2: Unless he ran. 31 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 3: Maybe a four four or five or something, then I'd 32 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 3: go wow. But you can watch him on the football 33 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 3: field and he was the fastest guy on the field. 34 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 3: You're not breaking ninety yard touchdown runs unless you're really fast. 35 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 3: But the fact that he got has great hands catch 36 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 3: the ball of the backfield. 37 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: And the Jets are on the clocket too. 38 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 3: I want to ask Lewis Riddick, could the Jets take 39 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 3: him even though you know they have Breis Hall? And 40 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 3: my thought is why not have two of those guys 41 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 3: who were great, you know, difference makers. Now I'm going 42 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: to put the pressure on the defense here. Now the 43 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: Jets aren't going to take him. Jeremiah Love is probably 44 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 3: going to be out of the top five. But if 45 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 3: you want a difference maker on offense, like how many 46 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 3: of those guys are in this draft, and that's where 47 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 3: you have to look at it differently. I know you 48 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 3: don't want to take a running back that high because 49 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: this is what's going to happen. 50 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to draft him high. 51 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 3: I hope that he gets a second contract because then 52 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 3: that validates me taking him with one of those top 53 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: ten picks, and then you're going to have to pay 54 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: him commensurate to that second contract. But if he's that great, 55 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 3: then I'm going to invest eight years of pay with 56 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 3: Jeremiah Love, because that's what it's going to come down to. 57 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 3: You'll get four years and then you'll skip the fifth year. 58 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 3: You'll sign him up, and then you'll kind of have 59 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 3: a Saquon Barkley situation, except for you don't let sa 60 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 3: Kwon Barkley go if you're team taking Jeremiah Love. 61 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: Yes, Ton, I think. 62 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 6: You take Love just for marketing reasons, because they could 63 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 6: be Jet Mariah Love and you could have all kinds 64 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 6: of fun with Jet Mariah instead of Jeremiah Love. Jet 65 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 6: Mariah Love. Oh no, get rid of Breesea altogether if 66 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 6: you have to. 67 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: You're pretty quiet in the first hour where you get 68 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: it goin. 69 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the fire in my office had a 70 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 3: better hour than you. 71 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 7: Yeah. 72 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, more much more content. Yeah, there's more content with 73 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: the fire, all. 74 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: Right, Seaton Pole, question, I don't even know what we 75 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 3: put up. In the first hour of the program, there 76 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 3: was so much happening. My life flashed before my eyes, flames, smoke, alarm, 77 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 3: big german. 78 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 8: And now here we are our two Yes, just trying 79 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 8: to piece it all back together. Yeah, somehow we power on. 80 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 8: We had two pole quests best month of the year 81 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 8: for sports, October running away with that one at fifty 82 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 8: four percent, March having a very respectable twenty six percent 83 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 8: in the second place. However, if you add up March 84 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 8: and April together, they still don't match it. October all right, 85 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 8: dominant jen no love for January, only about five percent. 86 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 8: Then we got one here from Paul the combine drill. 87 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 8: I would do the worst in forty bench, Vertical or 88 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 8: wonder Lick. 89 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 3: Well, you guys did the wonder Lick a couple of 90 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 3: years ago. That's when McLevin was here. 91 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: Yeah he did well. 92 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why he wanted to do the wonder Lick. Yeah, 93 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 3: you know Ivy League education with McLevin. 94 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 8: The results on this one. Vertical has about forty percent, 95 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 8: followed by bench at thirty seven percent. People very confident 96 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 8: in their wonder lick ability. 97 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: I would fail miserably in all of them, especially the 98 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 3: bench press. I mean I carry it, I carry a network, 99 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: but I can't bench press. 100 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 9: You know two. 101 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 8: Upper body strength can be tricky if you unless you 102 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 8: really work on it a. 103 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: Lot, right, Yeah, I you know what. 104 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 3: I was out getting chicks, so I wouldn't like Todd, 105 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 3: who just don't triceps and by sez. 106 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 6: That's early. 107 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 5: Yeah. 108 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 2: No legs, no legs, thank you? Wait business, you never 109 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 2: did leg day. 110 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 6: I did it once in a while. I got such 111 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 6: a horrible crimp from not doing it regularly that I 112 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 6: could barely get off the machine. I'm like, I'm not 113 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 6: doing this anymore. 114 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 2: Yes see. 115 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 8: The crazy part, too, is that Todd still on the 116 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 8: rare like every once in a while he'll run over 117 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 8: there and grab like dumbbell. Yeah, and he still only 118 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 8: does the same curls that he probably did when he 119 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 8: was seventeen. He doesn't change up anything at all. 120 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 7: Now. 121 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 6: I use literally on the rare occasion that I go 122 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 6: to the gym these days, I think I used four, 123 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 6: maybe five machines, and then I'll go on the treadmill 124 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 6: for twenty minutes, and uh, you know, once I get 125 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 6: the first beat of sweat, I'm out of there. 126 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: Do we have a poll question for hour two? 127 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 5: See? 128 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna stick with these. 129 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 8: I just put up the one from Paul about which 130 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 8: one the uh, which combine event you would do worse? 131 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: Okay, I can improve in the wonder lick, I'm not 132 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 3: going to I can improve in the forty. I probably 133 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 3: would take a long time to improve in the bench 134 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 3: press vert those days are done. 135 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 8: So Yeah, it is weird when you like sort of 136 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 8: crouch down to get into that vertical position and you 137 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 8: go to jump and that spring, even what limited spring 138 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 8: may have had, isn't there anymore at all, not even close. 139 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 8: That's upsetting. 140 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 3: I I remember somebody saying, hey, Marcus Johnson just dunked 141 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 3: and he's seventy. You're turning seventy, And I go, no, no, 142 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 3: I wouldn't even want to try. Something's going to fall out, 143 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: something's going to blow out. That would be horrible. 144 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 4: Yes, Paul, going back to the combine, I don't think 145 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 4: you can improve your speed you're jumping, or even your 146 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 4: wonder lick at this point in our lives. Like, I 147 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 4: think our speed is our speed, But I think strength 148 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 4: and the bench could be dealt with and could. 149 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 3: I think you could improve your speed lightly. Yes, there's 150 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 3: techniques that I think you could. 151 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 8: I think all of those things can be improved. You know, 152 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 8: we had Michael Vick on years ago and he said 153 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 8: and that we were talking about preparing for the forty 154 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 8: and he said, squats. Just have to do a ton 155 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 8: of squats and you'll improve your forty. 156 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: Oh anything else, Yeah, the wonder lick. 157 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: I think I could prepare for it knowing the question, 158 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 3: knowing the type of questions. Not knowing the questions that 159 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 3: would help too. But I would be coy and say 160 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 3: that I didn't want to appear too smart because teams 161 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 3: might not want you. 162 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: Hey, you're too smart. 163 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: Not that that would ever happen, but it'd be good 164 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 3: to use that as an excuse and todd while you're smart. 165 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 6: I was very average with that score. I don't know 166 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 6: whatever I got. It was either average or beloverdge. I 167 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 6: overthink questions a lot. When I was a little kid, 168 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 6: there was a question about the bakery and what you 169 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 6: can get at a bikery, and I picked beans because 170 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 6: I thought it baked beans. It's got to be bakery 171 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 6: baked beans. So I remember that back in third grade 172 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 6: I overthink I was the only when they get that 173 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 6: wrong out of the whole class. And that's tests.

Big week in Florida. 217 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 5: I got my three grandchildren, leam Leylan, and Sloan coming 218 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 5: down for a week of fun with Grandpa. So it's 219 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 5: going to be a blast, best and worse for the weekend. 220 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 5: I think the worst would have to be that quarterback 221 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 5: Ponder from Colorado get killed in the auto accident. Oh 222 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 5: and uh, the best of the weekend, which could lead 223 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 5: into stat of today, would be Michael Jordan making history 224 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 5: with NASCAR and his driver Reddick winning the third race 225 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 5: in a row, only time that's ever been done in 226 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 5: the history in NASCAR. 227 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, Mike's having a good month here. Mike's having a 228 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 3: good life here now, winning Daytona, a couple of races 229 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: after that, got his fishing boat there, making hundreds of 230 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 3: millions of dollars, getting away from basketball, and he's been 231 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:54,719 Speaker 3: really successful. 232 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 2: Yes, Marvin, is he still a. 233 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 11: Part of the NBC family or was what Tariko? Was 234 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 11: that just the one time he might be getting paid 235 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 11: by NBC. I don't think I would consider part of 236 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 11: him part of the NBC family. So he's still winning. 237 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know that was that was not good. It's 238 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 3: not good at all. You do one interview and whatever 239 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 3: you got twenty million dollars. 240 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: I think I've done that. Yeah. 241 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 3: Oh, because what we want is the relevancy of Mike 242 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 3: talking about the NBA not. You know, Tarico's got to 243 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 3: go in and go all right. I got all of 244 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 3: these questions, these topics, and hopefully they're evergreen, that they'll 245 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 3: last throughout the year. You would have thought, Okay, every 246 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: six weeks, you're able to go and have Mike sit down. 247 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 3: I don't and I don't know what he got paid, 248 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: but let's say twenty million dollars. I would hope twenty 249 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 3: million would would go a little further. 250 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 4: Yes, Paul, the estimates are between twenty and thirty seven 251 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 4: million dollars for a less than three hour interview. 252 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: No, it's it's not good. I mean it's good. That's 253 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 2: not good, yeah, Marvin. 254 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 11: Yeah, the part that was getting me was he was 255 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 11: just talking very general. Yeah, he didn't say anything about 256 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 11: like specific players. I want to hear you talk about 257 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 11: the current guys, the SGA's, the Jokers, the Aunt Edwards. 258 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 11: But it was just very I don't like load management. 259 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 2: Great, yeah, Paully. 260 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 4: I think though NBC got what they wanted out of it. 261 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 4: They wanted to be the big splash six you know, 262 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 4: eight months ago. 263 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 3: I think you got thirty seven million dollars worth of 264 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 3: coverage publicity. 265 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 4: Weirdly, yeah, because what. NBC knew what they were buying, 266 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 4: and they knew the limited access they would have. But 267 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 4: when they announced that we're getting the NBA and guess 268 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 4: who's joining us, Michael Jordan. No one else got them 269 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 4: for decades, and they got the buzz to lead off 270 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 4: their new era of NBC's NBA coverage. It's not long lasting, 271 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 4: but I think that it felt big right off the bat. 272 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think it worked against them because yeah, 273 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 3: oh you got oh that's it. Oh he's wearing the 274 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 3: same clothes that uh oh okay, it was Peyton switch. 275 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 3: I thought, you know, because initially it was like, all right, 276 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 3: Mike's going to contribute. But if you really want to 277 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 3: spice it up, that's where you have well, he and 278 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 3: Charles are not seeing eye to eye. But if you 279 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 3: add Barkley and then you had Reggie Miller, if you 280 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 3: had a couple of different former players, you were able 281 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 3: to do, you know, with players that are current, you know, 282 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 3: currently under the UH or on the payroll at NBC, 283 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 3: maybe you could do something fun like that. Maybe you 284 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 3: could do sort of a town hall with five NBA 285 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 3: players and Mike. But I got to get more out 286 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 3: of it than what I got because it it didn't 287 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: you know, the opinions were kind of loose, you know, 288 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: I wanted I wanted it direct, I wanted Sharper and 289 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 3: uh you didn't get that.

All right, give me the 352 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 3: most important drill at the combine and you, as a 353 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 3: former front office guy, would say that will equate to 354 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: success on Sundays. 355 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, it's different for each for each position, group. 356 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 10: So when you're looking at obviously, when you look at 357 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 10: the forty, which is always the marquee event, you know, 358 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 10: it's different for the DB's as opposed offense alignment. You 359 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 10: hear all the time of OFFENSI alignment, it's about ten 360 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 10: yard split for DB's, like corners in particular, it's about 361 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 10: ten yard split. The forty is more heavily weighted for 362 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 10: corners because look, if you're sub if you're not sub 363 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 10: four or five in the forty at corner, you're probably 364 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 10: gonna have to be like ridiculously proficient as far as 365 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 10: your instincts and route recognition, because you just need raw speed. 366 00:17:59,040 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: You just do. 367 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 10: I think, for like wide receivers, I love to watch 368 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 10: the three cone drill and in the twenty yards short 369 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 10: shuttle because obviously a lot of their their movements lower 370 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 10: body explosiveness, being able to change direction, moving to serpentine, 371 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 10: that's all important. So like right now, when everybody's like 372 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 10: up in arms about Carnel Tate's forty yard time being, 373 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 10: you know four or five to one four five two 374 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 10: is agents saying it's lower, blah blah. Look it really, 375 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 10: if if we really judge wide receivers, by forties, Jerry 376 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 10: Rice would have went undrafted. So I mean, it's just 377 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 10: like you know there, it's always different from position group 378 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 10: to position group. I think across all position groups, everyone 379 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 10: likes to see what a guy's vertical jump is because 380 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 10: that is really just about raw physical explosion. And there 381 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 10: were some dudes this year who was like, I mean, 382 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 10: I was telling my son about some of these guys 383 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 10: in and their vertical jumps, and he's like forty three 384 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 10: and a half inches from standing two point, Like, yeah, man, 385 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 10: these dudes are jumping out the gym. So it's it 386 00:18:55,640 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 10: moves based on position, but I think forty ten it's 387 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 10: three cone. Those are the ones that you really want 388 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 10: to kind of pay attention to from a measurement standpoint. 389 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 2: You know what caught my attention. 390 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 3: A couple of guys had a better vertical than Vince Carter, 391 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 3: and I go, I don't know what it means, but 392 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 3: that's pretty damn impressive there. 393 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 2: I don't know. 394 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 3: I mean, there's certain positions where I could see where 395 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,239 Speaker 3: you would say, oh, you know, this guy, if an 396 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 3: edge rusher, somebody can block field goals, maybe vertical comes in. 397 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 3: But these guys are preparing for the combine. So that's 398 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: the tricky part is you know how good are they 399 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 3: or how good will they be as football players? I 400 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,199 Speaker 3: still maintain what I see on tape on Saturday is 401 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 3: now your medicals. The interview process like those are important. 402 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 3: You know, are you the height that they say, the 403 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 3: weight you say? Other than that, I just don't it's 404 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 3: a and teams do this though, Lewis. Every year somebody's 405 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 3: going to go, oh my god, like Anthony Richardson, somebody's 406 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 3: gonna go by what they saw this week in Indianapolis 407 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 3: and change what they probably saw for three months in 408 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 3: the college football season. 409 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 10: Yeah, And usually what that is is then at this 410 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 10: point in time is where a lot of other people 411 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 10: come into the evaluation process, namely coaches, namely administrators, you know, 412 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 10: whether it be a team president and owner, whoever it is. 413 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 10: They haven't been out on the road since August and 414 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 10: September October and I've ever they have been watching tape. 415 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 10: They've been doing their own thing. I mean, coaches have 416 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 10: been coaching their teams. So what winds up happening is 417 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 10: sometimes they can come in and they can Now it's 418 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 10: important for a general manager in particular to not let 419 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 10: this happen, but they can kind of blow up all 420 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 10: the work that's been done all day, and next thing 421 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 10: you know, it like everything is in chaos, when really 422 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 10: you want to just keep the train on the tracks 423 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 10: and keep it moving down the road. It's just another piece. 424 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 10: It's confirmation a lot of times for what you've seen 425 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 10: on tape. 426 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, or it's. 427 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 10: The reason why you go back and maybe evaluate a 428 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,919 Speaker 10: little bit more, especially if a guy isn't as athletic 429 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 10: in the testing numbers as you thought he looked on tape, 430 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 10: or if a guy's a lot more athletic looking than 431 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 10: you thought he was in the tape, then you need 432 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,959 Speaker 10: to go back and research was he hurt during the season, 433 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 10: what kind of scheme was he dealing with during the season, 434 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 10: what kind of coaching was he getting during the season. 435 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 10: So or you know, you don't want to miss on 436 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 10: somebody who maybe just had who dealt with an injury, 437 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 10: dealt with a bad situation during the fall. But he 438 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 10: is a great athlete, and quite honestly, he does have 439 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,719 Speaker 10: football instincts, and maybe you could wind up catching someone 440 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 10: whose values a little depressed and wind up really hitting 441 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 10: on him once he gets to your place. It's another 442 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 10: it's just another data point. But I'm with you. There's 443 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,160 Speaker 10: no games being played right now, no guys who were 444 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 10: catching passes, intercepting passes, rushing the passer, So let's not 445 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 10: make crazy, wild changes on people's evaluations. Although there were 446 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 10: some guys who really did confirm what you saw on tape. 447 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 10: And the cool part about it, it's all the top 448 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 10: players that were doing it and they blew it up 449 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 10: as far as they're testing, which right now is going 450 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 10: to make Night one of the drafts super, super exciting. 451 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 3: Lewis Riddick of The Mothership, former NFL defensive back and 452 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 3: pro personnel director with the Eagles, also was in the 453 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 3: front office with Washington. You can see him on NFL 454 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 3: Draft Daily three eastern weekdays on ESPN two, ESPN, APP 455 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 3: and Disney Plus. It's weird to say, hey, is the 456 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 3: best player, the most talented player going to be taken 457 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: number one overall and the answer is no. In basketball, 458 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 3: if the Portland Trailblazers had taken the best player in 459 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 3: the draft, they would have taken Michael Jordan, but they 460 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 3: at the time, you had to have a big man, 461 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,479 Speaker 3: so you pass, you know, a keen goes one, then 462 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 3: you got Sam Buie. But the NFL do they do 463 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 3: that as well. It's position you're not going to take 464 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 3: Jeremiah Loved number one and he could be the best 465 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 3: player in the draft, or Sony Styles or whoever you 466 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 3: want to throw in there is it's it's the person 467 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 3: in front of you. Aside from quarterback, it's it's need. 468 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 3: There could be a defensive back who's the best player 469 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 3: in the draft. He ain't gone number one, but yeah, 470 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 3: so how do you justify when you take somebody even 471 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 3: if you know the guy who's going to go four 472 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 3: picks later is the best player and and you know 473 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 3: could be a Hall of Famer, Because. 474 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 10: It's it's it's always well, there's there's really there's two things. 475 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 10: It's always like a there's always a battle between best 476 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 10: player available and best player available at the position that 477 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 10: you do need because you are actually trying to build 478 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 10: a football team and you're not just collecting talent. So 479 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 10: it's like like, look, let's just say, for instance, if somehow, 480 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 10: some way, which it won't happen, let's just say Fernando 481 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 10: Mendoza's slid down the board to number, you know, to 482 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 10: number nine in Kansas City's there on the board. They're 483 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 10: not going to take Fernando Mendoza, even if he was 484 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 10: the best player on the board at that time, because 485 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 10: it just doesn't make sense, right, So you're always trying 486 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 10: to balance those two. 487 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but take quarterback out of the equation. 488 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 10: True, Okay, true? So I think what winds up happening is, 489 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 10: and I remember being taught this a long time ago, 490 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 10: you need to come up with a way in which 491 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 10: you prioritize the positions in terms of importance one through 492 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 10: twenty two on a football team, obviously, Okay, we'll take 493 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 10: quarterback out at the top. So the other twenty one positions, 494 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 10: what exactly how do you prioritize them? So you know that, Okay, 495 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 10: when you're looking at your board like you have typically 496 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 10: if you can picture a board, a physical board up 497 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 10: in the draft room, you have all the positions across 498 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 10: the top of the board horizontally, and then everybody stacked 499 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 10: vertically within those positions, and you kind of and then 500 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 10: you have like a grading scale on the far left 501 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 10: and you kind of slot them in vertically a cross 502 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:54,479 Speaker 10: positions like this. So what winds up happening is depending 503 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 10: upon how you you know, stack positions. So let's say 504 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 10: that your top five positions are cornerback, pass rusher, defensive corner, 505 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 10: offensive tackle, wide receiver. Let's see that those are your 506 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 10: top five positions in that order. Most teams are going 507 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 10: to have those five positions in some kind of order 508 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 10: outside of quarterback. Okay, And you come up and you're 509 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 10: and you're up on the you're on the clock, and 510 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 10: say you're at pick five, right, and you're looking across 511 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 10: the board and you have three guys at premium positions 512 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 10: who are all literally, as you look horizontally across the board, 513 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 10: on the same plane, you haven't graded exactly the same. 514 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 10: Now is when you go to how you prioritize building 515 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 10: a football team? Yeah, okay, and how you prioritize building 516 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 10: a football team sometimes it's like philosophically, how you believe, 517 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 10: you know, teams should be built. There's obviously salary cap 518 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 10: ramifications that are involved here. So you know, a guy 519 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 10: who winds up, you know, positions that carry a higher 520 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 10: value in the NFL when you're talking about you know 521 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 10: what the franchise tag would be with the average year, 522 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 10: average salue per year would be. You want to kind 523 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 10: of get those guys when they're younger on a rookie contract. 524 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 10: You don't want to have to be in free agency 525 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 10: having to find those kind of people, so you wind 526 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 10: up prioritizing those. Number One, they have high positional value 527 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 10: on a football team anyway, as far as how you 528 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 10: play the game. And number two, that's usually gonna come 529 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 10: with a higher salary, So you want as much cheap, 530 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 10: affordable labor as you can possibly get, so you're gonna 531 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 10: prioritize those guys higher. That's why running back, that's why 532 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 10: it slides down the board, and that's why pass rushers, corners, 533 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 10: offensive tackles are always gonna go higher. And there may 534 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 10: be guys who go higher even if they are on 535 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 10: your board. Jeremiah Love is sticking out. He's above everyone, 536 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 10: but you're gonna but you need an offensive tackle. You 537 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 10: may take CC mauioa from Miami, even if he is 538 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 10: a notch below Jeremiah Love simply because of the positional 539 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 10: value to your football team. 540 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 3: But if you take Jeremiah Love in the top ten, 541 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 3: which he probably will, which yeah, so you're gonna double 542 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 3: down on that, you're gonna have to pay him as 543 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: a top ten pick. 544 00:26:59,119 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 2: Yep. 545 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 3: And then if if he works out, you're gonna have 546 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 3: to pay him again yep. Correct, Like if you draft 547 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 3: him and he turns out to be great, then you 548 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 3: get to that fourth year. Well, now you're doubling down 549 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 3: on that position. So now you get into that Zeke 550 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 3: Elliott situation, and then you go how much gas does 551 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: he have left? Can I get eight years out of 552 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 3: Jeremiah Love? And that's why teams I didn't get nervous 553 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 3: with that top ten pick on a running back. 554 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 10: You know what's also interesting about that though, See I 555 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 10: do think traditionally, like back in the two thousand's, early 556 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 10: twenty tens, late nineties, Yeah, you used to. You always 557 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 10: thought about can I get how much runway can I 558 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 10: get with a player? Can I get two contracts out 559 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 10: of him? Can I get a decade? Can I get 560 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 10: ten years? You see how fast the league changes now? 561 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 11: How much? 562 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 10: I mean coaches get two three years and they're blown 563 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 10: up out of there. I do think the mentality has 564 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 10: changed some, meaning, look, we got to win now. Otherwise 565 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 10: we see how impatient owners get right now. Yeah, I 566 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 10: think a little bit of that calculus has changed. Like 567 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 10: I don't know if you worry about that so much 568 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 10: as you look with Jeremiah, I wouldn't be worried about 569 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 10: that about Dublin down and trying to figure out, you 570 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 10: know what am I gonna do with his second contract? 571 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 10: I just want to get through his first contract. I 572 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 10: want to win some games. I want to be able 573 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 10: to go worse to first like some of these teams 574 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 10: are doing, because if I don't, I may be out 575 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 10: of here. And the way in which he is able 576 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 10: to help you win football games with his explosive playmaking ability, 577 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 10: which is priority number one for every general manager and 578 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 10: head coach right now. 579 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 2: But why do did just take him at two? 580 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 9: You know what? 581 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 10: Probably because they're thinking this, Look, they're gonna believe at 582 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 10: some point here. I think they're gonna franchise Breese Hall. 583 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 10: They really do like breast ball, and Breece is a 584 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 10: good player, and I just don't think that makes sense 585 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 10: for them. But I think, look, could Tennessee wind up 586 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 10: taking him, Could Arizona wind up taking him? Could the 587 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 10: Giants at five for sure wind up taking him? I 588 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 10: absolutely think so. I absolutely think that he may not 589 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 10: get past the Giants at five. He's look, they saw 590 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 10: what they gave up, and I understand why they thought 591 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 10: they maybe needed to give this up, meaning let Sae 592 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 10: Kwon go. But they saw the difference that he can make. 593 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 10: They saw the difference that he can make. Now, obviously 594 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 10: you need to make sure your sae Quon went to 595 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 10: the perfect place with the perfect offensive line at that time. 596 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 10: But Jeremiah is different. And I know for a fact 597 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 10: as I hear it all the time. It's what every 598 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 10: head coach is after. We need guys who can win 599 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 10: games on one play. It's too hard to try and 600 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 10: go ten to fifteen plays, and Jeremiah can do. I 601 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 10: end up running back. Coach told me this, tell me this, Dan, 602 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 10: He said, you know who he reminds me of. He 603 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 10: goes don't, don't, don't. I'm not saying this is the 604 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 10: one to one comparison, but he moves with the ease 605 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 10: and fluidity of Eric Dickerson. That's what reminds me of. 606 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 10: And I haven't heard anybody in my entire time of 607 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 10: scouting since I got done playing compare anybody to Eric Dickerson. Nobody, No, 608 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 10: but not a single runner. That was pretty high praise. 609 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 10: And I respect the hell out of this guy who 610 00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 10: told me that. 611 00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 2: You're in love with love. 612 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm not the only one. 613 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody. Yeah he's a special Yeah. But see then 614 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 2: I go back to the Jets. Why not have another playmaker? 615 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I have Breeze Hall, I get another playmaker. 616 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 3: I want to put pressure on you on the defensive side. Yeah, now, 617 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 3: now deal with this, we'll we'll incorporate these guys in 618 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 3: the offense. If he's the second best, most valuable player, 619 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 3: difference maker, I have a hard time passing. 620 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 10: The only problem is, like they were, they were like 621 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 10: epically historically bad on defense, Like they have no playmakers onside, 622 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 10: they gave all of them away. 623 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: We're just gonna score more points. We don't have to 624 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 2: score one more point, Lewis. 625 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 10: I mean what you're looking at is can we address 626 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 10: it somewhere later on down the you know, down the line. 627 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 10: I know they're gonna get a quarterback too, so that 628 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 10: that's the other thing too, Dan, I mean, what are 629 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 10: they gonna do with sixteen? What are they gonna do? 630 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 10: I mean, are they gonna wind up taking a guy? 631 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 10: And I'm sitting here looking at my board, I'm going, 632 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 10: hey man, they got to get somebody. They gotta get 633 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 10: somebody to pull the trigger. I know they've got so 634 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 10: many different things going on there, but yet Jeremiah's got 635 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 10: a lot of people right now in personnel departments sitting 636 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 10: there going should we We saw what Jamiir Gibbs did. 637 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 10: We know what Bjon Robinson can do. We saw what 638 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 10: Saquan can do when he's at the right spot. Are 639 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 10: we set up to where we can get that kind 640 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 10: of return on investment if he's ours? And I think 641 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 10: that's This is the fun time of year. It's a 642 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 10: fun time of year for us. I don't know how 643 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 10: fun it is for the teams, and you know, we're 644 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 10: actually trying to make these decisions. But there's some dudes, man, 645 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 10: there are some guys right now who just showed over 646 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 10: the week, over the past week, that the athletic component 647 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 10: of the game is skyrocketing. These athletes are insanely, insanely 648 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 10: talented and skilled and trained, and the game has never 649 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 10: been more more specialized and more athletic than it will 650 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 10: be in twenty twenty six. 651 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 3: That's for sure, great to talk to you as always, 652 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 3: of course, thank you about it. Alrighty Lewis Riddick of 653 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 3: the Mothership. Here are the updated odds DraftKings the NFL Draft. 654 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 3: Who will be the number two overall pick after Fernando Mendoza. 655 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 3: Rvel Reese is your favorite, then David Bailey. Baaley's out 656 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 3: of Texas Tech is that the edge rusher all right, 657 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 3: Ruben Bain Junior, the third, Caleb Downs, Sonny Styles, Ohio State, 658 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 3: Ty Simpson, and then Jeremiah Love. But Jeremiah Love is 659 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 3: plus forty five hundred, whereas rvel Reese is minus one forty. 660 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 3: The Jets are not going to take Jeremiah Love. They're 661 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 3: not going to take a quarterback Ty Simpson either. But 662 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: Sonny Styles had a great combine, and I'm not sure 663 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 3: what happened. Was it Carnell Tait, the Ohio State wide receiver, 664 00:32:54,800 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 3: and he ran a pedestrian four to five, which is average, 665 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,479 Speaker 3: Actually it's below average. And then all of a sudden, 666 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:08,239 Speaker 3: Adam Schefter tweeted out that there were other people at 667 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 3: the combine handheld who had him in. 668 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: The four fours. 669 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 3: Now, I don't know if Adam has mentioned this, that 670 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 3: there are other players handheld times that would be better 671 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 3: than the actual official time at the combine, but it 672 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 3: certainly sounded suspicious and Drew Rosenhaus is Carnel Tate's agent. 673 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 2: Now, I'm not saying that. 674 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 3: Drew Rosenhaus asked Adam Schefter to Hey, there's some hand 675 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 3: timed So wait a minute, I'm going to take a 676 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 3: hand timed forty over the actual system that they've been 677 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: using for years. What if the hand time was worse 678 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 3: than the actual combine? 679 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: Would he have reported that? 680 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 11: Yes, yes, Marvin, But I'm going to give Tate the 681 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 11: benefit of the out because he's an Ohio state wide receiver. 682 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,719 Speaker 11: I think I'll take my chances with him four five, four, six, whatever, 683 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 11: just because of the lineage that the guys that they've 684 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 11: produced as of lead. 685 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 3: Okay, but why do we need to maybe adjust his 686 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 3: time so you know it passes the eye test? 687 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 2: Here? No clue? 688 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 11: Okay, because it said I went to Ohio State as 689 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 11: a wide receivers period. 690 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 3: Yes, I went to Ohio State. I don't have to 691 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 3: run the forty yard dash. He could have done that. 692 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 3: But if you run a four or five whatever and 693 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden they're hand timed four fours. 694 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,799 Speaker 3: I just want to know if Adam has reported on 695 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 3: any other players that had hand times that might have 696 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 3: been better than their forty yard dash. I'm not saying, 697 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 3: but I'm just saying. We'll come back with our best 698 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 3: and worst of the weekend right after this.
