1 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: Coming to you live from the Cross Country Muggage Campus 2 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: in Barrio, Ohio. This is Cleveland Browns Daily sp in Cleveland. 3 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: Here are your hosts, Bo Bishop and Nathan Zigura. And 4 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: the next level is next. We'll see you tomorrow. I'm out, 5 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: I'm done. I can't this breaks. I'm broken. But on Sunday, 6 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: that's what everybody says. People say, oh, so jacked up. 7 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: What about all the days we lost? Man, about those 8 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: We're not getting those back in all seriously. So I'm 9 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: just coming over on the turnpike and there were six 10 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: accidents of single our accidents. Cars flew into the median, 11 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: flew into the ditch, didn't look like there was anything 12 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: and they were all single car like. I didn't see 13 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: anybody flipped over anything but six cars off the road. 14 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: Remember when I told you it's twenty eight miles, it's April, 15 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: and there were six cars like as if it was 16 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: in February, Like, be careful out there. It's a brutal 17 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: driving circle. When I went to that to the ai 18 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: W show in Canton that day where there was another 19 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: out of nowhere snow and everybody had just changed their 20 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: snow tires to their summers and that's what we saw. 21 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: Like in a ten seconds stretch, we saw ten cars 22 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: off the road turn around. One that like turned its 23 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: wheels so hard because it was so out of control 24 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: that it snapped its axle. Yeah, it's a debacle. It's 25 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: it's it's ridiculous. And you know what's sad. It would 26 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: have been nice in December. What's happened is every and 27 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: it's horrible for you and I people who work in 28 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: the football industry. What's happened is everything shifted two months 29 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: or a month and a half. Think about it. We 30 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: had none of this in November and December out of it, 31 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: but it was still cold and gray, okay, but now 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: it's kind of warm through October. Yeah, it's warmer through October, 33 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: and it starts later in the years longer. Yeah, it 34 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: sucks longer, which is horrible for me because once train 35 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: camp starts the end of July, that's like rough on 36 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: my rough on the golf geme. But I had a 37 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: great day on Friday, got to go and and tee 38 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: it up with It was me and Sim's a against 39 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: the kid and the cook. Rough day for the cook. 40 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: Me and Simsy win it every way possible. Three and 41 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,399 Speaker 1: one on the front, five three and one on the back. 42 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: So the kid wanted and the kid's handicapped remains legit. 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: He couldn't even overcome. He couldn't overcome the cook. The 44 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: cook rough feels a rough day. That happens, there's that's 45 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: what happens. Sometimes you get to go in sideways. Well, 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: those conditions it was. Do you guys ever go six 47 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: holes six holes, six holes and rotate? No, it's always 48 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: a match. I want to mind playing some of that 49 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: Wolf game too. I enjoy that. Don't know what that 50 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: is too long to explain here, but a good, a 51 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: fun game. I've only played it once. I enjoyed. It's 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: like after the drives pick you pick who you're going 53 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: with and then there's all kinds of shenanigans and tom 54 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: foolery that that goes on. But that was one of 55 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: those days. Though Friday, it was muddy the course. I 56 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: could not have played harder. Walton's probably never played harder. 57 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,559 Speaker 1: There was zero role legitimately, so it was all carry 58 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: and then there were twenty thirty mile winds. That's right. 59 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 1: Friday was blustery, wasn't it. You needed to really strike 60 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: the ball and in a in a situation like that. 61 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: That played into my strength. I can strike the ball 62 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: and consistently. What was did we have a all weekend 63 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: and we was very What was the best hour, like 64 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: a decent hour? Was it Saturday afternoon? Was Friday doable? 65 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: Friday at like one to maybe it was like seventy 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: for a second, but the wind was crazy. It was 67 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: Friday night. Friday night. The wind stopped and it was 68 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: like sixty four. But I was you know, we were 69 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: in basketball gym, so I didn't see it. But it 70 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: were out in Chagrin Falls having an outdoor. Well I 71 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: had yeah, because I had lacrosse in the home of 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: MSK on Saturday warning and that was that was a 73 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: rainy Groppolis just awful um boys, some real tom foolery 74 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: out of the Tigers, uh claiming victory when not bold 75 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: move out of them. I didn't see that coming. The 76 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: boys in Blue were ahead the whole way, and it 77 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: was because they run two at the same time, so 78 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: they now to there. This was strange too, so it's 79 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: six to the whole way. They bang home three goals late. 80 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: I'm with you, you're still ahead, correct, So they had 81 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: um and they had like ten kids to our twenty 82 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: and you just rotate them through. So it's just it's 83 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: actually quite brutal. But they scored the three goals, so 84 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: they get a last one in like thirty seconds to 85 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: make it six to five. They're celebrating. We tied, We tied, 86 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: We tied. They're celebrating the tie. I got guys coming 87 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: out to wait a second, didn't we win? Yeah, in 88 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: fact we won. Not in the eyes of the folks 89 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: from ms K's home, it was dicey, dicey move. I 90 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: was surprised, a dastardly deed. It's part of the mediocritization 91 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: of our country. Well, I was like, even if it is, 92 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: what are we doing terrible? What are we doing here? Rotten? 93 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of winning, so today is Arden's fortune. 94 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: Angel I will say, one thing that you, at least 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: at this juncture, will never have to deal with is 96 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: a growing up daughter. It's a challenge as a as 97 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: a father. No, that's finite. Yeah for me, well good, yeah, 98 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: that's done, so you can live vicariously. For me, not easy. 99 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: But she is such a wonderful young woman, so proud 100 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: of her. She requested the bowlings for her birthday, so 101 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: We had a little bowlers last night, which was a 102 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: real treat, but we also had a full on Uker tournament, 103 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: and I it was it was ordained that I was 104 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: going to be playing with Nana as kind of a handicap. 105 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: See I I take umbrage with this already. She's official 106 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: Nana the show. She birthed you like. She's a great human. 107 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: But she is prone to multiple mental mistakes a game, 108 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: because she still says, even though we've been playing Yuker 109 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: basically every time we're together for I mean back into 110 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: like a lot, she still will have a remembrance of 111 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: playing the great game Pedro and apply a Pedro rule 112 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: in her mind. Or that's what she says, which at 113 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: this point we haven't played Pedro and Pedro Pedro, I 114 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: have never heard of Pedro. Pedro's a great game anyway, 115 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: similar to Yuker, but different similar like it's a partner 116 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: game and you gotta get you know, you bid and whatever. 117 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: But so she'll go back to that. So we're matched 118 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: up with Arden and Bryce in the in the semis, 119 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: so it was ms K and her brother against their parents, 120 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: Me and Nana against artin Bryce. Art and Bryce are 121 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: really good Bryce there. They are very good. Nana made 122 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: a couple of big mental mistakes. We overcome it. We win. Now, 123 00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: in the middle of the game, she made one of 124 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: her very ad mental stakes. I gave her a little 125 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: bit of crap and she threatened to leave and go home, 126 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: which is awesome, she stays. We beat them. It's ten ten. 127 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: This one goes into the extra sessions. We beat them. 128 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: So now we're onto the championship game against Kayla and 129 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: her brother, miss kaying her brother. They had beaten the parents. 130 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: It's another nail biter. My mom makes a huge, huge 131 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: mistake where she was supposed to play the trump, she 132 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: played a heart instead, and they would not let her 133 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: take the card back. She was it an honest mistake? 134 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: Or was it but two cards down like she meant 135 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: to hold put another card down? Or was it No? 136 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: She for had forgotten what trump was. Oh sorry, yeah, 137 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: I would have to rule with so they wouldn't learn. 138 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: So she at that point goes, I may, I'm gonna 139 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: go home. I'm just going home. I've had enough of 140 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: the I'm an old person. Calm down, calm down. Nonetheless, 141 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: we go on. We win the tournament. My mom and 142 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: I come back, come back, and we win the whole thing. 143 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: She's a great champion. She does her patented. That's her 144 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: big in her little two thumbs up, and it was 145 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: like it was a huge moment. So she wanted everybody 146 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: to know that that she triumphed. Now in the consolation bracket, 147 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: Art and and and Bryce, who we got lucky would 148 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: be they just did not have great cards. They beat 149 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: uh the in law's tent one which was just a 150 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: swift took care of business there. It's interesting. So it 151 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: does feel like though that that despite Nana wanting to 152 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: have that story told, I don't know that it portrays 153 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: her in the best of lights. It feels like it 154 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: portrays you in the best of light. Why because it 155 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: feels like you had to carry No. She played great, 156 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: She played great. She makes a couple He did mention 157 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: her mistakes, but that's part of the story. But she 158 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: overcame it. She overcame it. She had the heart, she 159 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: had she had the just the gumption and she did 160 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: stick with it, and she played very well down the 161 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: stretch and and even after that, once she wrote L 162 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: O L. She's enjoying the story. She stuck with it. 163 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: After the rage, I mean, it was almost a rage quit. 164 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: She almost was just like, you want let me take 165 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: this car back? Like I'm out, and like, we can't 166 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: let you do that, and Arden was right there is 167 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: kind of like at this point they'd already won their conslation. 168 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeahs like do you can't take that car back? Man, Like, 169 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: come on, like as much as I love you, we 170 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: can't allow that. And it was unfortunate, but you can't know. 171 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 1: But we overcame. So she's a champion, and we played 172 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: we are the champions and and you were chesty quite modest, 173 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: how does K handle your chestiness? K is actually super competitive? 174 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: And then we played how does she handle like when 175 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: you're that if she's my teammate, no know, when she's 176 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: the victim? Oh not, well, I'm sure so like if 177 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: we are playing and I go to like I'll go 178 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: to just like rub her shoulder if for like on 179 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: opposing side, or hold her hand, and she's be like, no, 180 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: no thanks, no thanks, no thanks nothing, not having it. Yeah, 181 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: not having at all. Kids think it's hilarious. That was 182 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: very very good. I had a Sunday morning. I had 183 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: a it was five forty A scream from the top 184 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: of the stairs, good morning, it's Easter. Bold He's ready, 185 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: he's ready to go, ready to go quickly cook. Statement 186 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: from the official Nana. It was not no rage, just 187 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 1: a temper tantrum. Okay, okay, kind of the same. You 188 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: can have it. Yeah, So he was ready to go 189 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: looking for baskets forty and and away we went off. 190 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: You go on that front little Easter egg hunt for 191 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: the kids. That was a win. What's what's his favorite 192 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: of the Easter candies? All people still Cadbury cream egs, 193 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: Like I was, No, I think we're I don't think 194 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: I think people are out of those, and they're out 195 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 1: of the on the peeps, I don't think they're out 196 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: of Cadbury creamgs. No way. Those things suck what It's 197 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: just so sugary, gooey. It's just I mean, I didn't 198 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: eat one this year, not like when I was a kid. 199 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: I sure liked it, but I don't know, did you 200 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: like if there were options, like, for example, let's say 201 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: Recy's made some sort of a Recy's egg that was 202 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: the chocolate with the peanuts, like barely even like an egg, 203 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: It wouldn't that be a superior candy to the Cadburry 204 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: I can have that taste though all year round, I 205 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: used to get Reese's pieces. I used to get peanut 206 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: butter cups. I have it. So this was this was 207 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: the only time I'd have was Easter I'd have I mean, 208 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: we all got him. I just I don't remember liking them, 209 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: not the little ones only. It's just when you would 210 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: open it, it was this that sugary. The goose look 211 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: like an egg. They even give you an egg. Ye, 212 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: open there. It's interesting that you took to that, considering 213 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: your disdain for the other eggs. Hate real eggs. Yeah. 214 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: His whole thing on Sunday morning was he felt he 215 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: felt like he needed to try everything. I just want 216 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: to try it, Dad should It was like seven in 217 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: the morning, and I'm like, well, why don't we work 218 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: in a breakfast. I just gotta try it, Dad, I 219 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: want to. I don't know, I just want I just 220 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: want to try it. That was this whole move, So Xamp, 221 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: you know what else I have. I came to the 222 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: realization over the weekend and basically all we did was 223 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: lose right for the like our city loss and state. 224 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: Everything sucked. Guardians didn't win a win game this weekend. 225 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 1: Calves blew it on Friday spoke. But in December we 226 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 1: changed the expectations for them and it was like, very 227 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: minimum we make a postseason. They didn't. Unfortunately, it sucks 228 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: they didn't. Uh, they're not in the postseason, so that stinks. Um, 229 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: and Trey Young was a supernova. Garland struggled in his 230 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: in a big moment. I think we can all say 231 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: so we have all of that. But um, I was 232 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: looking forward to the Celtics and Nets yesterday and I 233 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: haven't watched much of these teams all season and now 234 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: loved Tatum. I love Kyrie. I mean, he's stunning. I 235 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: was reminded, I don't. I'm not a big fan of 236 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: hate in anything except sports, and it's actually the best 237 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: in sports because the vitriol that that fan base feels 238 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: towards him is equal to the vitriol that he feels 239 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: towards them. And he's such a worthy villain because he's 240 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: so damn good. That was as good a game. That 241 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: was as good a game one, series one game as 242 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. It felt like a finals game to me. 243 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: It felt like an Eastern Conference final compared to especially 244 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: compared to the other games that were on yesterday which 245 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: had nothing nothing no, no, no, that was it, and 246 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: that felt I thought it would feel that way. We 247 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: had it on as we're getting ready for Easter dinner. 248 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: It was on kind of. I was watching it, keeping 249 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: an eye on it, back and forth the whole way, 250 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: real dislike all around, and it was. It was good 251 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: old fashioned hate like um anti hate in every other 252 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 1: form of life. But I love it in sports. And 253 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: when you get a true hate, we don't see that 254 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: very often. Who's like the last I mean you see 255 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: it in the NFL. You get, you know, a decent 256 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: amount of hate, but usually it's fan bases, not player 257 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: versus fan base or player versus another team, like if 258 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: it is personal between him and them, it was great. 259 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: And then they end on a buzzer beater and Durant 260 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: and play greats. It's not a great game from Durant 261 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: and Tatum is a stud. I love Tatum. Well, the 262 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: last you saw it, I mean the way that it ends. 263 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 1: So they don't take a time out and they I 264 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: mean they go three passes in five seconds for a 265 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: spinning layup at the buzzer, So apparently they Simmons was 266 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: saying this on his podcast this morning, they played I 267 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: did see that. That's their first buzzer beater ever, first first, 268 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 1: not just him and his dad's the first ever buzzer 269 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: beater for the Celtics in the postseason, first one ever 270 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: had never happened. The Celtics have never won, have never 271 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: had a buzzer beater. They played three some playoff games, 272 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: no buzzer beaters ever. That was the first one. It 273 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: seems impossible. It seems really seems impossible. They've had them 274 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: against them, They've had them, but I don't know if 275 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: even true buzzer beaters against them. Magic's hook happens. There's 276 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: a few seconds left in that finals, not like I'm 277 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: watching every Celtics game. Did Lebron have one at the 278 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 1: buzzer against them? I can't remember. But what about what's 279 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: the one where there's the steel there's a steel by 280 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: Bird lays it in. They that there's like still six 281 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: seconds on the clock. So a true buzzer beater, don't 282 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: That was the first one? That's wild? Yeah, Simmons, Dad. 283 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: The picture to the picture they posted, Dad looks like 284 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: a great time is Dad looks like an East Coast pedro. 285 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: Now at the flowing locks. He does look like looks 286 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: like an East Coast pedro to me. Um, Yeah, outrageous. 287 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: That's amazing. First, yeah, that I think that series like, 288 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: I'll actually, that's one that I don't mind throwing on 289 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: in the background, like I'll watch that. I'm in I'll 290 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: watch that for sure. The rest, I'm not sure the rest. 291 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: It does feel like that they've finally achieved what I 292 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: suppose that league at its best is, and it's something 293 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: we enjoy in the NFL, which is it does feel 294 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: like there's true parody. It feels like anybody can win it. 295 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: It feels like in the East as many as five 296 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: teams could win it, including both of those two. Um 297 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: and in the West, I think it's I think Phoenix 298 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: everyone tells me is separated, but I don't know that 299 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: they're They felt like they were just kind of going 300 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: through the motions and took it pretty easily to the Pelicans, 301 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: who I didn't recognize many people on their roster. C. J. 302 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: McCollums column there, but Zion sitting it out and then 303 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: they've got they have McCullum and they've got Ingram. Yeah, 304 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: but like the rest of their starting val shunists or 305 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: whatever is there, but the rest of our starting lineup 306 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: I was not that familiar with. Um. You know what's 307 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: an interesting too about those games? Did you notice this? 308 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: They don't put up like in the old days. I 309 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: felt like in the playoffs, every time they showed a 310 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: score bug or on the score buck, it would have 311 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: the seed of each team. They weren't like, did they 312 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: not have that up? No? They acted almost like all 313 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: these were seedless games. It was just like, here's the game. Really, 314 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: I'll have to look for that. I didn't notice that one. 315 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: I was because I was curious about what the seeds 316 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: were and was not getting any of that information. Well, 317 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: as we said, when the Calves played him on Tuesday, like, 318 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: that's not a seven, That nets team is not a no. 319 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, that was tough, and I think Trey 320 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: played himself into being a villain around here. That'd be good. 321 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he was pretty chesty, as you should be. 322 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 1: The way he was sensational. He really was. He was great. 323 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: Speaking of great, I know those of you who aren't 324 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: hard of seeing her. For those you unlike bo who 325 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: followed me on social media, posted a clip over the 326 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: weekend of of Jeff George throwing the ball to James Jet, 327 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: who was a track guy back in the day. As 328 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, what made this come to light? 329 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: It was just like came from a random just kind 330 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: of like a random quarterback tweet about just guys with 331 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: absolute hoses, old time football. Because who tweeted it, so 332 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: j Jeff George rocket to James Jet forty nine yard 333 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: touchdown from this was a Raider. See this is the 334 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: season that Jeff George nine touchdowns, nine interceptions, No big 335 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: deal for the Raiders led the a f C. What 336 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 1: this feels like a ninety late nineties maybe in that range. 337 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: And they used to run this so that this is 338 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: the play they ran a lot. I'm very quite familiar 339 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: with them, but this is against Seattle. By the way, 340 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: those old Seahawks uniforms are great. I don't know why 341 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: we can't bring them back. Yeah, I think that they're 342 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: the one that I think that I think those would 343 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: be a good one off. I do think their new 344 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 1: ones fit. Sure, I'd love this as a one off, 345 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: but this is a one off. They should get into 346 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 1: the rotation again. It's fun. Yeah, those are good. It's 347 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: a fun one. I do think they're ones now. Are superior. 348 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: But I do think that though that's a great I 349 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: think the Seahawks probably the best modern uniform in the NFL. Alright, 350 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: he throws the ball in this I'm gonna retweet it 351 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: again for everybody right now. He throws the ball from 352 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: his own forty two. Okay. The ball is caught two 353 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: seconds later in the end zone, sixty yards in the air. 354 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: The ball, it's basically a line drap. It's a laser. 355 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a He's he always had a hose. 356 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: I just don't think the ball comes off anybody's hand 357 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: like this anymore, or it just accelerates in the air 358 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: like I think the I mean, if he played in 359 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: to day, Mahomes has a hose, Rose, it just looks different. 360 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: Michael Vick had that. Michael Vick could flick like that. 361 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: You know, he could just off of any platform because 362 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: it felt like he would just like a laser. And 363 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: then when he really wound up he had at it. Um. Yeah, 364 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: I mean no, there aren't too many. You know. He's 365 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: also like a traditional drop back, so you get like 366 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: the drop out of it, like now they're out of 367 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: the gun. So that's a little bit different. You don't 368 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: you're not dropping it in that plant foot and then 369 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: he's dropping. He's faking the rever and around a Tim 370 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: Brown he takes one hop up and gone annihilates that ball. 371 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 1: Yeah that he that was never the He always had 372 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: the big arm. I mean, that was always there. I 373 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: got something that you might be interested in. So and 374 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: this is pretty interesting. So Tom Brady tweeted at Aaron Rodgers, 375 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,400 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen like a the eyes emoji thing, 376 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: and then that's it. He added them at it. So 377 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: it appears that we have this year's version of the match. 378 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: He's going to involve the four quarterbacks. Did you see this? 379 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: So it's Alan's I'm seeing it right now. It's Alan 380 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: Mahomes against Brady and Rogers. And I gotta tell you, 381 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: there's so many things I'm surprised about. When this thing 382 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: first launched, I thought it was a Tiger Woods vehicle 383 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: with Peyton manning. That's what I thought. That those two 384 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: guys were the were the launch mechanisms for it, Like 385 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: you needed one of those guys for it to be 386 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: a success um and instead it went to not have 387 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: a pro I think part of the allure is to 388 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: do it with a pro, Like I can watch Tahoe 389 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: if I want to watch this, zero appeal to me. Same, 390 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't know that this hits at all, you know you. 391 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 1: I want to watch Tom Brady play with Kepka because 392 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: that's something. Then then I get to see Brady, who's 393 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,199 Speaker 1: a pretty average you know, he's a good golfer, but 394 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: not not in terms of this level versus with an 395 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: all time player in the world. Like, why do I 396 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,239 Speaker 1: want to see a bunch of amateurs play, even if 397 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: they are football players. I think they're missing the point. Yeah, 398 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm not, and I don't know that. Are you gonna 399 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: get a lot? Doesn't strike me as like a ton 400 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: of personality in this. I mean it's gonna rely heavily 401 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: on Rogers. He's the only one with his dry I mean, 402 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: they need like McAfee on the call, Like what are 403 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: these other guys handicaps? Rogers and Brady are pretty d 404 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: sent right, Rogers seemed better than Brady to me. I mean, 405 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: of the the guys that we saw play, Manning was 406 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: the best. Right of the guys we've seen, who have 407 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 1: we seen in this? We've seen Manning, Brady, Rogers has 408 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: anyone else done it like Steph would steps. Yeah, he's 409 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,479 Speaker 1: probably better than all of them. Yes, I would love 410 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: to see that. Yeah, but I think Manning is the 411 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: best of these guys at this. Where are they doing this? 412 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: Win the win again? No, I'm sorry, not for me, Like, 413 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: who's gonna what? I don't want? Where's the entertainment? What's 414 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,719 Speaker 1: the allure? They're gonna have to have Chuck do it? 415 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 1: Sure to love Chuck and maybe Justin Thomas? May they 416 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: pay Justin Thomas to do it? To make fun of him? 417 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 1: There's something about a pro you have Tiger or a 418 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: pro like end Peyton and a Pro and Brady like 419 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 1: that was fun And if you're going to you have 420 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: to have somebody without having somebody like Peyton, Isn't that 421 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: what the first one was? Wasn't the first one? Phis? 422 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: Peyton and and Tiger and Phil and Tom? Yeah, and 423 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: Peyton hit one of the most pressure packed shots ever 424 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: on that part three and Brady played like garbage, but 425 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: then he did dunk the one in from the fairway. 426 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: But without I don't know, without Manning and without I 427 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: mean so much of the humor was carried by Phil. 428 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 1: And now he's out of the mix. Apparently he's been evaporated. 429 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: And then so last year the one in Montana was 430 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: De Shambo and Phil and Rogers and Brady. Is that 431 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: what the oh KEPCA wasn't it was KEPCA with I 432 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: can't remember. I don't remember either. I remember the original. 433 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,199 Speaker 1: I remember De Shambo was acause you tried to hit 434 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: the seven under yard drive. And I remember Rogers and Brady. 435 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: But I wanted to say Phil was the fourth, but 436 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: may maybe Phil, maybe it wasn't kept Did they have 437 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: the kept cut de Shambo? Right? Yeah, But anyway, this 438 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: does nothing. This does nothing for me. Um all right, 439 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 1: lots of NFL teams are reporting, uh, in terms of 440 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: getting ready to start those off season programs. Uh, there 441 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: are some news on that side of thing. We are 442 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: going to do you a football solid in this god 443 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: awful day, and we are going to go through this roster, 444 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: tell you where we are. We'll go position group by 445 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: a position group. Let you know where we are, where 446 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: we're still needed, where there are some holes, what we 447 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: think is going to happen at these various position groups. 448 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: We will do that over the course of the next 449 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,159 Speaker 1: hour and forty UH. As we start to gear up 450 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: towards towards guys coming in here and starting to get 451 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: a little bit of work done. We're often running here 452 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: on a Monday edition Cleveland Browns Daily, fifty ESPN Cleveland 453 00:23:45,359 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns Daily on a fifty ESPN Cleveland WebM Ohio 454 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: Business Machine for her copy of provider of your Cleveland Browns, 455 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: have all the xs and oes to your office called 456 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: two and six at Ohio Business Machines dot com. All right, 457 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: let's start a breakdown of this roster and where it is, uh, 458 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: where most of the fun is, and it's in the 459 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: offensive backfield, and it is uh led by a I 460 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: think probably consensus top five quarterback in the NFL now 461 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: with Deshaun Watson. That running back room remains intact. This 462 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: is a loaded group, my friend. Yeah, So this is 463 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: gonna be absolutely one of the strengths of the Cleveland Browns. 464 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: And I do think it is possible if we're if 465 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into, you know, the draft, I think 466 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: that it is possible that you could see somebody added 467 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: here to this room and we'll start with quarterback and 468 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: then get into the running backs either one. I think 469 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: it's possible in the draft that you could be looking 470 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: at somebody as kind of a long term, viable backup prospect, 471 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 1: because currently your quarterbacks numbers two and three are on 472 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: short term deals and so you've got now, Deshaun Watson 473 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: is your starter, You've got Jacobe Burst as your backup. 474 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: Josh Dobbs third string baker still on the roster right now. 475 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: But I think we all know that's going to be 476 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: resolved at some point, and the sooner, hopefully the better. 477 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: There So this could be if there's something in the 478 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 1: mid rounds, later rounds that the Browns are interested in, 479 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: could they give a look there? Absolutely, So that's where 480 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: you're at from a quarterback perspective. From the running back room, 481 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: can we just stay on Watson just before we break 482 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: this down, because you know, with you know, he's it's 483 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: been about a month now since he's been a part 484 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: of the Cleveland Browns, and you know, you know, we 485 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: didn't see him play last year, and so it's been 486 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: a while since people have seen him play and are 487 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: aware of how great he is at at playing football 488 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: for a living. And I think what what's going to 489 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: be most remarkable with him is not only all of 490 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: the throws that he makes look very routine that are 491 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: oftentimes extraordinary. But the other thing with him is the 492 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: versatility that he's going to provide Kevin Stefanski in the 493 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: play action game is going to be stunning because he's 494 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: a jet. The dude is a jet like. He's got 495 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: that part of his game too, So you're going to 496 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: see And I was trying to think of when was 497 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: the last time that a quarterback of this talent played 498 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 1: in this type of system in their prime, like a 499 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: a Shanahan zone run, big time run system, but also 500 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: to be able to play action off of it? Who 501 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: what is the what? Who is that John Elway with 502 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: Mike Shanahan. But that's the end of Elway. He's still great. 503 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: Yan is not the athlete is but Matt Ryan was 504 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: certainly in his prime with Tile. Right. It's just usually 505 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: when you have this type of offense that we deploy 506 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: the quarterback and for whatever reason, most often times it 507 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: feels like the quarterbacks limited and that is not the 508 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: case here anymore. With the Shawn Watson. The quarterback allows 509 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 1: for even more from the offense. So if you think 510 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: about what this offense has done for Ryan or Cousins 511 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: or whomever, through the years. Now of a sudden, you're 512 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: taking a peak athlete at the position and a peak 513 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: performer at the quarterback position, and you're putting him in 514 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: it an offense that is advantageous and schemes guys wide open. 515 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: Sky's a limit, man. Well, you're talking about a three 516 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: time Pro bowler. You're talking about a guy who has 517 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: the highest completion percentage in NFL history for a quarterback 518 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: with attempts, the highest completion percentage in NFL history. So 519 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: in terms of your efficiency, in terms of your ability 520 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: to make all the plays, and then the danger that 521 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,479 Speaker 1: he adds due to his dynamic abilities as a runner 522 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: is it's a stunning thing. It is something that I 523 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: think you could be very very right about that it 524 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 1: It may be, in fact, without precedent in this offense 525 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: to have a guy at this stage of his career 526 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 1: who is this good and he's coming off of a 527 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: season in which he led the NFL back twenty three 528 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,440 Speaker 1: yards passing seventy percent completions, thirty three touchdowns, seven picks, 529 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: lead the league averaging nine yards an attempt, to lead 530 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: the league averaging twelve point six yards per completion, And 531 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: then you go in and you look and you say, 532 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: what's he doing as a runner every year? Well, for 533 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: his career, he averages basically four hundred and seventeen yards 534 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: rushing if we're in eighteen yards rushing and four point 535 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,160 Speaker 1: to five rushing touchdowns a season. He averages producing as 536 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 1: a runner about thirty first downs a year, So that's 537 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: to a game. So this is a guy that is 538 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: going to extend drives with his legs, but his ability 539 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: to make every single throw all levels of the field. 540 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: He is an incredible, incredible vertical passer. I mean, his 541 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,239 Speaker 1: accuracy on the vertical ball is stunning to watch. And 542 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: and we're gonna do some of that stuff and break 543 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: some of that stuff down for you guys uh in 544 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: the coming weeks here at Clean Browns dot com, the 545 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: Brown's mobile app, and our YouTube channel. But the Shaun 546 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: Watson is a stunning football player, and he is a 547 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: stunning quarterback that will allow this staff to come up 548 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 1: with absolutely anything under the sun because there's nothing that 549 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: he can't physically do. And the way that he is 550 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: going to stress defenses is going to be incredible. And 551 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: that leads to the next part, which is our running 552 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: back room. And when I talk about stressing a defense. 553 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: Teams are going to now, where in the past teams 554 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: were Okay, let's stop the run. Now, teams have to 555 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: be worried about our past first run as a distant 556 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: second afterthought because of what he does. Again, remember he 557 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: averaged eight point nine yards per attempt. That means every 558 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: time they called a passing play on average use in 559 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: Texans gained nine yards. The best running back in the league, 560 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: you average five yards to carry, you're gonna be amongst 561 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: the league leaders. That's a four yard difference per play. 562 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: So teams are gonna be worried about that. So we're 563 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: not gonna see eight nine man boxes anymore. So you're 564 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: gonna have Nick Chubb, who is one of the best 565 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: lightbox runners in the NFL, is also one of the 566 00:29:58,480 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: best heavy box runner in the lead because that's what 567 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 1: saw running against the light box more often than he 568 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: has at any point in his career. So you've got 569 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: a running back room that's the best in the league. 570 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: You've got Nick Chubb, You've got Kareem Hunt, you've got 571 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: de Ernest Johnson who's on the restricted tender, signed us tender. 572 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: And so could another team try to prime away at 573 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: this point. Yes, you've got John Kelly, who had a 574 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 1: very nice preseason for you a year ago. Trey Harbison 575 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: as well, who spent some time in the organization. But 576 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,479 Speaker 1: those are the the five running backs that you currently 577 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: have on the roster. And then you'd add Johnny Stanton 578 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: in there as the loan fullback. Right now, that's what 579 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: you've got here running back. The Browns have met with 580 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: some ring backs. Could I see a later round running back? 581 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: Because yeah, and the reason is you're not gonna be 582 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: able to keep the three or top three, You're not 583 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: gonna be able to stay intact beyond this year. Most 584 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: likely it does. Yeah, I mean this is this is 585 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: it for for Hunting Chubb together? Like this would be 586 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: the end of the road for for those two guys. 587 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: I think most people would say that, and you acknowledge it, um, 588 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: but I think it would. It would really suck if 589 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: we weren't able to see that, because we just haven't 590 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: been able to see them both healthy consists, you know, 591 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: like they've been banged up. I mean, Kareem Is so 592 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: many games last year, Nick Smiths games, like it would 593 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: just be a hell of a thing to see them both. 594 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: We love what you're in the springs, But you'd be 595 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: something to see the two of those guys healthy for 596 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: a season, And it's something that we've seen in flashes, 597 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 1: but in terms of for a full season, would be 598 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: a remarkable thing to add to what Watson can do 599 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: to this offense. Have both those guys standing behind him. Yeah, 600 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: and he's very effective at getting running backs involved in 601 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: the passing game as well. He's never had a runner 602 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 1: quite like this, But you know, you could see the 603 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: way that Kareem Hunt is a weapon out of the 604 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: backfield being another thing, and you could I think you're 605 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: gonna see them on the field together, not so much 606 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: for lead running, blocking and power game, but just to 607 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: create mismatches. You can motion cream out, you can get 608 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: a tell from the defense and then you have maybe 609 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: an r p O where you can run a little 610 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: screen out to Kareem as he runs a little bubble 611 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: from the slot, or you can run an angle route, 612 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: or you could do the handoff to to Nick Chubb 613 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: and just read the safeties. That's the thing. Defenses have 614 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 1: never had to account for our quarterback and even in 615 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's m v PCs and the defense has never 616 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: had to account for Matt Ryan. The offenses do have 617 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: to account for Deshaun Watson, and so that changes a 618 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: little bit of the math. It's just another little thing 619 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: that tips the scales in the favor of the offense. 620 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: And so we have the opportunity and and I think 621 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: our work is not done at the receiver position, and 622 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that as we kind of keep going 623 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: through all these positions. But we have the opportunity to 624 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: have a top three offense in the NFL. And I 625 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: don't think that's hyperbole at all. I think we will 626 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: have the best running game of any offense in the league. 627 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: And people go back to Minnesota. That was with Kirk 628 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: Cousins and very talented Justin Jefferson, very talented Dalvin Cook, 629 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: solid Adam Felan, although he missed a lot of last year. 630 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: The scheme there's sound similar to ours, although I think 631 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: we're more diverse in our scheme. There's a stretch where 632 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: I think they had ten straight games where they didn't 633 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: score below twenty six points. If we did that last year, 634 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: we were we won our division. We may have won 635 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Yeah, I don't know, but we didn't. 636 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: Now we have an offense that's going to do that. Yeah, 637 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: I think that's um and and maybe someone will come 638 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: to mind. But all of the things that we have 639 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: the potential to be here offensively, Uh, this is this 640 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: is all why this deal is done because this unlocks 641 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: so many things and it puts you immediately in a conversation. 642 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: And we'll go through and continue to articulate, and we're 643 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: not done. But there's gonna be other guys added to 644 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: this roster. But when you think about the best teams 645 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: in this league, and you think about the Bills, you 646 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: think about Kansas City, Uh, the teams that are gonna 647 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: be in the mix going forward into and obviously sincein 648 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: Andy they were in the super Bowl, you've got to 649 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: have to score a ton of point. You're gonna to 650 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: be very diverse. There is no offense in the league 651 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: that has the potential, especially I know, we gotta figure 652 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: out what's gonna happen receiver beyond the Marii. But whatever 653 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: else is added there to the potentially as diverse as 654 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: this one does. The Shawn's ability to take off and 655 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: go is something that this type of offense has never 656 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: seen matched with his arm talent. It just there aren't 657 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: because there aren't there many guys you have ever had 658 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,719 Speaker 1: that type of talent, let alone played in this system 659 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: with a guy like Nick Chubber, a guy like Kareem 660 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: Hunt standing beside him. Now, So just kind of I'm 661 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: going through real quickly here um in the A s C. 662 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: And you've got uh there we go, all right. So 663 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: these are just these are the teams that are predicted 664 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 1: to have their wins be up on par with ours, 665 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: right and and just kind of what they're big three 666 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: would be. So you'd have the Bills, Josh Allen, Stefind 667 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: Diggs and then Devin Singletary. So a little bit of 668 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,959 Speaker 1: a weak link at running back, Mahomes, Kelsey, Clyde Edwards, 669 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: Hilaire again, weak link at running back Justin Herbert Keenan 670 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: Allen Heckler. That's a good one. That's a good one. 671 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. That's a pretty good and there, yeah, 672 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: go ahead, continue Broncos, Russell Wilson, Javonte Williams, Jerry Judy 673 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: not this level, but you can see the potential for 674 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: it if Williams, Borrow, Chase Mixing, Legit, uh Tannehill, Derrick, 675 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: Henry A. J. Brown, Tan Hills, A little bit of 676 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: a of a hold back, you know, Lamar Jackson, j K. 677 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 1: Dobbins coming off the injury, and Hollywood Brown that's not 678 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 1: not not elite, Deshaun Watson, Amari Cooper, Nick Chubb, that's 679 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: pretty good. And you've got some depth there. And then 680 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: Indianapolis you would have Matt Ryan, Michael Pittman Jr. Jonathan 681 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: Taylor not bad. The Dolphins is interesting because now you 682 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: got to uh and I mean, you're really your weapons 683 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: are are Wattle and Tyreek Hill. But they added to most. 684 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: They added Chase Edmonds who could fit there. New England 685 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: doesn't really have anything that you're now the Raiders, Derek Carr, 686 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: Davante Adams and Josh Jacobs. I mean, it's just again 687 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: it's a it's a pretty loaded well. Even in the 688 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: end if you want to add Rogers and then you 689 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 1: want to do Rogers and Brady and Dac and those guys, 690 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: there's nobody on the level of us no, because they 691 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 1: don't have they don't have the no no. That's the 692 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 1: weak link. Well. And the receivers in Green Bay, the 693 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: running back in in Tampa Bay, Matt Stafford, Cooper cup 694 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 1: and and it's committee committee Cowboys Ezekiel, it's terrible, So 695 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't matter. In Ceedee Lamb would be there their trio. No, 696 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: that's it. It's a it's just kind of an interesting 697 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 1: thing that they've putting themselves. The Browns now have an opportunity, 698 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 1: I think to truly be dynamic, and I think we 699 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: need one more dynamic playmaker at receiver. And we've got 700 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: ten days to the draft, and I think that's where 701 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: it could come. There could be somebody in free agency 702 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: as well, maybe a combination of of both as you 703 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: look to get one or two more receivers in here. 704 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: But when you think about where you are at quarterback, 705 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: and let's not forget Jacoby Percents, a six year veteran, 706 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: former third round pick. He was the Colts Walter Payton 707 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: Man of the Year in This is what he did 708 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: as a starter in two seasons with Indie thirty one 709 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns, thirteen picks. We just haven't, at no point 710 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 1: in my tenure have we ever had touchdown interception ratios 711 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: that never Now, the second half of when Baker was 712 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: was very very good. Twenty touchdowns sooner receptions. That's the 713 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: best stretch we've had. But of our season standpoints to 714 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: have these kind of numbers, Watson, would I say at 715 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: thirty one and seven or something. No, five yards are 716 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: rushing and eleven touchdowns on the ground. So he's a 717 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: guy again can give you both of those things. And 718 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 1: then you talk about you know, Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt. 719 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: This is just a ridiculous. It is an unbelievable amount 720 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: of riches. And then into your Journice Johnson last year 721 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: started two games Denver, New England three five total yards 722 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: and a touchdown. Hereage a hundred and sixty total yards 723 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: and and half a touchdown in those games. No, he 724 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: was he was absolutely sensational. Um And you got to 725 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: think about this from I've seen about this from Kareem standpoint, 726 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: because last year, you know he only he missed eight games. 727 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 1: He was half the season, so in two uh two 728 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: of his one with was suspension obviously, but then in 729 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 1: this this last year he only played half the games 730 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: in the game. When in the season when Kareem played 731 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 1: sixteen games, it's eight forty one on the ground and 732 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: six touchdowns. It's another three oh four in the air 733 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: and five it's eleven touchdowns and yards. Brother, going to 734 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs. He scored again a couple of times in 735 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Counting the playoffs, in Chubb and Hunt became 736 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: the fourth running back due in the history of the 737 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: NFL to both have more than twelve hundred total yards 738 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: and twelve total touchdowns in the same season. Yeah, it's 739 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 1: just it's it's stunning when it goes and it's amazing, 740 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: Like Kareem's still only twenty seven, and his you know, 741 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: from a workload standpoint, it hasn't really have had to 742 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: been there because they have timeshare. I mean, you know, 743 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: he had two hundred and seventy two carries as a 744 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,879 Speaker 1: rookie in Kansas City. His next highest is the second 745 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 1: year in Kansas City. One. I'm sorry here in um, 746 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: but it's forty three. It's seventy eight. Like, he's pretty fresh. 747 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: He will be quite fresh, quite hungry, and he's got 748 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 1: a guy that's got an opportunity. You know, for Kareem Hunt, 749 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: the the likelihood that he's a starting running X somewhere 750 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: in three it's probably pretty high, right, you mean, he's 751 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: such a good player, but and this is a good look, 752 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: great fit for him. It has been incredibly productive when 753 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: he's been on the field. It's worked very well. It's 754 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,479 Speaker 1: helped keep Nick Chubb fresh as well on his three 755 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: straight Pro bowls um something that only Jim Brown has. 756 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: Jim Brown and Leroy Kelly are the only ones who 757 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: ever go in the Pro Bowl in this franchise is 758 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: history three straight seasons. Kelly did in sixty seven to 759 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: seventy two and Jim Brown is the only other one 760 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: to do it. The guy is this is crazy for 761 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: Nick Jubb. Three straight thousand yards seasons. He's average three 762 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,399 Speaker 1: yards nine point three rushing touchdowns per season, never been 763 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: below five yards per carry or eight rushing touchdowns in 764 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: any season in his NFL career. Go back to his 765 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: rookie year he runs for and remember we were was 766 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: over a thousand, was over a thousand, then came back 767 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: and then we were trying to get Baker the touchdown records. 768 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: We were throwing inside the five or whatever, and at 769 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: any point you could have given it to him, he 770 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 1: would have went back over a thousand. Didn't care, No, 771 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 1: he didn't care. He went He finished that rookie year 772 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: five point two per Here's something to think about, guys. 773 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb last year nine eight yards after contact, four 774 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:16,359 Speaker 1: point to five yards per carry after contact four point 775 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:22,240 Speaker 1: five yards after contact per carry. That's against a loaded box. 776 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: We're not going to see that anymore. There's gonna be 777 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: none of that. The days of teams coming out and 778 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 1: putting everybody at the line of scrimmage nine guys sometimes 779 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: and saying, okay, we dare you to throw our over. 780 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 1: They will be like, can we entice you to try 781 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: to run it? Even though Nick Chubb is he is 782 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: as much a big play threat as a runner as 783 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: anybody else in the NFL, forty one runs of ten 784 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,359 Speaker 1: yards are more less year second in the league. That's 785 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: stunning that that the offensive backfield a tremendous embarrassment of riches. 786 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 1: We'll check it on the offensive line the tight end 787 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: group coming up next to listen to Cleveland Browns Daily 788 00:40:55,080 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: on ESPN Cleveland Cleveland Brown's Daily sp N Cleveland m.

But still overall, 812 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: what should be one of the one of the strengths 813 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: of this or any team. Absolutely, and we'll start with 814 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: the offensive line from left to right. Your starters, Jedrick Will's, 815 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: Joel Betonio, multiple time All Pro. Your Nick Harris, who 816 00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 1: was our guest couple days ago here, he was great. 817 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: I liked him a lot. Same, Yeah, he was fantastic. 818 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 1: Nick Harris starting center, Why Teller, right guard, and the 819 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: two time All Pro Jack Conklin might tell her n 820 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: All Pro last year, Jack Conklin your right tackle. So 821 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: where we've got some depth though, I think, in all 822 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: of these positions. So let's start with the it will start, 823 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: we'll go inside out. So inside Ethan Postic, who has 824 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: forty starts to his name, a former second round pick 825 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: out of l s U was with the Seattle Seahawks. 826 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: The Browns have signed him and he is likely to 827 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: be the backup true center to Nick Harris. And then 828 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: at the guard positions, You've got a lot of names 829 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 1: that you guys know very very well here backing up 830 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: Joel Bettonian White Teller, Michael Dunn, Blake Hants. Blake Han's 831 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: again remember truly an interior offensive lineman, just side the 832 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 1: fact that he started a ton of games before he 833 00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:27,360 Speaker 1: had tackle a year ago. So those two you have 834 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: Drew Forbes who was your draft pick a couple of 835 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: years ago out of Southeast Missouri State. UM. And then 836 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 1: you've got yelled fro Holt who was here, yelled the 837 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 1: fro Holt who was with you for a lot of 838 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: the season last year. I was even active for a 839 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,240 Speaker 1: couple of games as well. UM. And then David Moore, 840 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 1: a first year guy out of Grambling State. Those are 841 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,800 Speaker 1: kind of your backups on the interior of this offensive line. 842 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 1: And so you know, when you think about what hands 843 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: did you know seven starts at both left tackle and 844 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 1: right tackle, four team games. You got done. Who's made 845 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: starts for you in the playoffs. He made start against 846 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: Vegas and Green Bay last year. UM. Forbes was your 847 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: six round pick in twenty nineteen. He's missed all They 848 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 1: opted out COVID that year. UH knee injury cost him 849 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: last year, he's fighting. Froholt was on the team the 850 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: roster last year. So there are and and David Moore 851 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 1: was on the practice squad last year. So that's your 852 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 1: guard backup room. And you're probably looking at you know, 853 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: Postic making the team and then maybe hands and done. 854 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,399 Speaker 1: That's a pretty darn good interior of your line. There 855 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 1: so now we go to the outside of the line 856 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: and and your key contributors at the tackle position, and 857 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: guys that you're looking at. Chris Hubbard is back. It'll 858 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: be great to see him. Miss Hall last year at 859 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 1: that triceps injury. Um just a started forty plus games 860 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: for this franchise at right tackle. A veteran. He can 861 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 1: play tackle, he can play guard. He's filled in a 862 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 1: guard for Wyatt Teller and our playoffs season. You've got 863 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: James Hudson, who was our fourth round pick a year ago, 864 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: who made some starts for you as well, Um as 865 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: a backup. And so you're thinking the this line feels 866 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: in a way like you could kind of go into 867 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: it right now and say, all right, those are our starters, 868 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,919 Speaker 1: our backups are gonna be. You know, Michael Donn, Blake 869 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 1: Cant's posted in the middle, Chris Hubbard and Hudson on 870 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 1: the outside, and you're already at ten. There it is. 871 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: Now there's gonna be competition, and Jack is you know, 872 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 1: with that injury, where are what's kind of a time 873 00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: to have you heard anything on that? Anytime he's looking good, 874 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 1: there's optimism that he can be a guy that is ready, ready, 875 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: to roll, ready to roll when this season gets going. 876 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 1: See or swagged throwing the level around. It's a beautiful 877 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: thing to see. But isn't he a lot of spring 878 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 1: him down when you're a man of great means? Whether 879 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 1: I guess as immaterial to you. Um but I think 880 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: the hope is that Conklin is gonna be ready to 881 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: go for the season. I know he's in here busting 882 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: his butt every single day to get back. He looks great, 883 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: He's in great spirits whenever I've talked to him. Um. So, 884 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 1: I think that there's opt is him there, but James 885 00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 1: Hudson and or Chris Hubbard, one of those two will 886 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 1: be ready to go if he's not at the right 887 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: tackle spot earlier in the year. And then you've got 888 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,399 Speaker 1: a couple of projects where guys that you know, developmental 889 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: guys on your offensive line in the tackle room as 890 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: it sits today as well. Alex Taylor, who spent and 891 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 1: most of one on the Browns practice squad, he was 892 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,879 Speaker 1: on the active roster last year. He's that tackle that's 893 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: six eight an eight eight eight inch wingspan, which was 894 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: tops of the combine. UH. He was the only player 895 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,800 Speaker 1: in twenty from an HBCU to get a combined invite. 896 00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 1: He played hoops in football South Carolina State, so he 897 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: was an All American in twenty nineteen. They like the 898 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: town clearly if you stay in the program for a 899 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 1: third year. They like what they're seeing the development. And 900 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: I mean that size six eight and those long arms, 901 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: that's something they can get behind. Now the other guy, 902 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: it's interesting, Uh, Elijah Nkansa. He's an undrafted free agent 903 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: out to lead up six one, which is very short 904 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 1: for a tackle. But he's been on a practice squee 905 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,919 Speaker 1: practice squads around the league since eighteen Tennessee, Seattle, Houston, Indy, 906 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: the Jets, the Browns played in one career game. So 907 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna be fighting for a roster spot there. But 908 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: that's a look at your your line room right now 909 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: we talked about is you've already got fifteen guys here. 910 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 1: I mean you've got three three lines. Yeah, yeah, No, 911 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: you've got You're you're set there, You're good to go. 912 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 1: Um and and what we're gonna get into coming up next, 913 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 1: we'll get into tight ends, We'll get into wide receivers.

That 941 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 1: was a former running backs coach, Kirby Wilson, who is 942 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: the head coach I guess of the marauders. The running 943 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,600 Speaker 1: back in question, dave On Smith said I did nothing 944 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 1: disrespectful or did anything disrespectful.

And I'm 980 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 1: happy we did it. My fam motiples on, let's go 981 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:37,919 Speaker 1: on work. I know don't do so I figure it out. 982 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,800 Speaker 1: So what Yeah, he said he didn't want chicken salad? 983 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: Did they have anything else? He saw some pizza, said hey, 984 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 1: can I have some pizza? The guy said no, Is 985 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: that going to be a problem? And he said yeah, 986 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: because he doesn't need chicken salad, And they cut him 987 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 1: for that, which is stupefying. Jeff Kurk from cbsaid, just 988 00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:59,439 Speaker 1: from the video and his explanation allays as a player 989 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 1: wanting something else eat, he got cut for not wanting 990 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: to eat chicken sell And think about that. I mean, 991 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 1: what if it feels like if I was on this 992 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: team and all they had was egg salad and you're out. 993 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: I can't eat that, you blew it. But anything else 994 00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 1: I could eat, they would have cut me. So I 995 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 1: was trying to see, I mean, this is and you 996 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 1: watched the video the guy's despondent. Well yeah, I mean 997 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 1: the whole thing is is there's a guy who says 998 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 1: it's John Peterson, who's on first I was wondering if 999 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: that was a guy who's former O highest state, he 1000 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: was on the highest state staff persons involved too, that 1001 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:33,239 Speaker 1: maybe he's in personnel, Like I'm not sure on that. 1002 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 1: And honestly, there's not even a there's not even like 1003 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 1: in terms of like they're the USFL websites. Like you 1004 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 1: click on their website, it's brutal. It says news, schedule, 1005 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: roster like that doesn't there's nothing on like coaches or 1006 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: like front office or any of that. Um wow, yeah, 1007 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't think you want that. I don't think you 1008 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 1: want that. Did you watch any of the game? I 1009 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 1: did not. Did you know I watched none of it? Zero? 1010 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,399 Speaker 1: So they're all playing in Birmingham this first year. All 1011 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 1: of these games are in Birmingham. It's believe, So I 1012 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: believe that no one's playing at a home stadium. They're 1013 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 1: all just playing in Birmingham. So for example, like it's uh, 1014 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 1: New Orleans Breakers, Philly Stars. They all just played in Birmingham. 1015 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 1: It's the Houston Gamblers, Michigan Panthers, Birmingham, Birmingham Stallions, New 1016 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,520 Speaker 1: Jersey Generals. The game was played in Birmingham at that 1017 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: field that used to host the got the Birmingham Bolts 1018 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 1: of the ex original season ticket holder and they at 1019 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 1: that at that stadium down there, which is Legion Field 1020 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,680 Speaker 1: where they used to play the Iron Bowl forever um. 1021 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,839 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a pretty wild circumstance. I also think 1022 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 1: so there's all I don't know, like they're all these 1023 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: guys are banking on nostalgia and that's why they have 1024 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,759 Speaker 1: the Houston Gamblers in the Michigan, New Jersey General's, Birmingham's Like, 1025 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 1: these are all teams that were original USFL. I was 1026 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 1: unaware of a Pittsburgh Mawlers in the USFL. I think 1027 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:03,319 Speaker 1: it's surprising, stunning, and borderline negligent that they didn't put 1028 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: one of these teams in Ohio, Like the fact that 1029 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 1: Columbus is sitting there empty, vacant in the string with 1030 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,840 Speaker 1: three million people in the biggest metro in Ohio, and 1031 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:15,879 Speaker 1: they don't they don't put one of these teams in Columbus. Like, fine, 1032 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: don't put it here, don't put in Cincinnati, but put 1033 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: one of those teams in Columbus to me is crazy 1034 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 1: rather than give another Pittsburgh. Really, don't they have enough 1035 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,839 Speaker 1: going on? It feels like it feels like it like 1036 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 1: it seems like a stretch. Um, that's a bad look 1037 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:32,919 Speaker 1: of the league. I don't. I didn't watch it. Um, 1038 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 1: I'm not interested in it that. The nostalgia is not 1039 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: gonna help. I'll give the Rocks thing a shot to 1040 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: see what he does around that. But it's still it's 1041 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 1: gonna be a race to who gets an association with 1042 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: the NFL first. That's it. That's all this is. It's 1043 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 1: a race to that who gets an association with the NFL. 1044 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm more curious than who plays there and 1045 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,640 Speaker 1: becomes the dearernist Johnson or p J. Walker, who plays 1046 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: there and and makes the name for themselves and gets 1047 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: themselves a career that the wouldn't they're aways had without 1048 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 1: this developmental league. But are you interested in you seeing 1049 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 1: them become that? Or are you interested in that once 1050 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: they get here? It's justest in hearing about it, then 1051 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,439 Speaker 1: watching some of it and then getting here, getting here. Yeah, 1052 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 1: here's the other thing that these spring leads didn't have 1053 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,400 Speaker 1: to contend with the last time that we did this, 1054 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 1: the a F and the wasn't there an XFL a 1055 00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 1: couple of years ago too. So here's what those leagues 1056 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: have to deal with now that they didn't have to 1057 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: that name, image and likeness in college. So what those 1058 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 1: leagues could have been at some point is they could 1059 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 1: have been a jumping off point for kids who did 1060 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 1: not want to go to college to make a little 1061 00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 1: money and play some football until the NFL allowed for 1062 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: somebody under the age of twenty one to come three 1063 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: years or moved from high school to come to the NFL. Well, now, 1064 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: I don't know how any of these things are gonna 1065 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 1: be able to match the money that these kids are 1066 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: gonna be able to make on campus at big state. 1067 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 1: You they're not none, they're not. So even there was 1068 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,400 Speaker 1: a thought that maybe some of the best players who 1069 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:00,759 Speaker 1: didn't want to play school would be able to do 1070 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: go this route. It would be an alternative form. We're 1071 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: seeing that in the NBA, the G League. There's another 1072 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:08,080 Speaker 1: there's a unite whatever that thing is where you can 1073 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: go make some money if don't want to go to 1074 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 1: college and go make some money doing that, or you 1075 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 1: can go overseas. I think it wasn't Maybe this may 1076 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: be one of these leaders with me that but that 1077 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:18,840 Speaker 1: all happened before n I L. Yeah, with n I L, 1078 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: you're never going to get those players you want to 1079 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 1: be at the big schools of course, where all the 1080 00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: money is. Man. By the way, speaking of this, just 1081 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: tweeted out by the Rock, monumental partnership is our XFL 1082 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,879 Speaker 1: three partners with the NFL's alumni Academy. This partnership will 1083 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:36,560 Speaker 1: serve as a pipeline to the NFL in the fall 1084 00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 1: and the XFL in the spring. I'm excited for players 1085 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,800 Speaker 1: in our entire football ecosystem. So they've announced a partnership 1086 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: with the NFL's alumni academy to scout, train, scout, and 1087 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 1: train potential players for three season. So it just feels 1088 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:51,840 Speaker 1: like he just did it. Already has a tie and 1089 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: he's already got the association. Yeah, because everyone to be 1090 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: associated with the Rock, I mean, it's pretty and who 1091 00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 1: would guys electric um. I also saw the US from 1092 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk this morning, the UM, the Direct TV, 1093 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 1: the red zone, and the Sunday Ticket. Apple could be 1094 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 1: making a move on that to take it away from 1095 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:15,399 Speaker 1: Direct TV, so that would be a part of them, 1096 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: like their Apple Apple TV. I suppose a yeah, but 1097 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 1: can I get that if I don't have an Apple TV, Yes, 1098 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 1: you can. It'll download. Even on a Samsung I couldn't 1099 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 1: find it. That's where like ted Lasso is. No. I know, 1100 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: I've never seen any of that stuff because I've never 1101 00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: downloaded the app. Downloaded, baby, So it's all I can 1102 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: get that on the Samsung TV or on the Sony TV. 1103 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: All right, I'll give it a shot. Yeah, there's good 1104 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 1: stuff to say. It's like a net. Yeah, but I 1105 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 1: thought I searched for it and it was its own. 1106 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 1: I blew it. Speaking of blown it, the Saturday morning 1107 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,480 Speaker 1: screams from the boys loft area as they were watching 1108 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 1: watching something about something boots.

All right, let's do the tight end room, 1264 01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 1: my friend, as we continue our voyage around your Cleveland 1265 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:21,560 Speaker 1: Brown's offense, that the tight endroom is gonna look a 1266 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 1: little bit different this year. It is Austin Hooper is 1267 01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:27,840 Speaker 1: now with the Tennessee Titans, and so coming back in 1268 01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 1: the tight end room, you've got David to Joku and 1269 01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:34,160 Speaker 1: Harrison Bryant, and you know, the chief just signing that 1270 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: he's put the franchise tag placed on him. Last year 1271 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:41,120 Speaker 1: thirty six catches, four hundred and seventy five yards, third 1272 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 1: on the team, third teen point two yards a catch 1273 01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 1: team my four touchdowns. He had that game against the Chargers, 1274 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 1: seven catches on seven targets, hundred forty nine and a touchdown. 1275 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 1: I'd love to see him in a bigger role. I 1276 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: think that is possible. I think that certainly is in 1277 01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:57,000 Speaker 1: line for him. Here's something that I thought was incredible 1278 01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,200 Speaker 1: in four games with five or more targets last year 1279 01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 1: sixteen catches, t U, nine yards, and two touchdowns. That's 1280 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,919 Speaker 1: four games with five or more targets. To do the math, 1281 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 1: that means you, if you just got five targets a 1282 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: game or more, he would have been on pace last 1283 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 1: year for basically sixty four catches, over a thousand yards 1284 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 1: and eight touchdowns. So I think he's gonna get an opportunity. 1285 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:20,360 Speaker 1: I think this could be huge for him this season. 1286 01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 1: Then you've got Harrison Bryant for fourth round, picking three 1287 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:27,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns in each of his first two years in the league.

These are reports 1301 01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: are now being confirmed around the league, and I imagine 1302 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 1: we are going to have, you know, we'll have a 1303 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 1: official Brown's response to that. But what I like about 1304 01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:41,880 Speaker 1: it is the Warden of the North is gonna be here. 1305 01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 1: You have the ability to have one of the most 1306 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: dominant cornerback duos in the league now going forward with 1307 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 1: Greg Newsome on a rookie contract for four more years, 1308 01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 1: three years plus that fifth year extension. So that is 1309 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 1: a that's a good thing obviously for the Cleveland Browns. 1310 01:08:59,080 --> 01:09:02,160 Speaker 1: And congrats the Denz l Ward because certainly he earns 1311 01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: it and he has stolen the thunder from the tight 1312 01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:07,400 Speaker 1: end room. They probably feel under appreciated, number of valued, 1313 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:12,040 Speaker 1: but listen, when you're worth, it's worthy. It's Uh, it's 1314 01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:14,880 Speaker 1: amazing how we've locked up all of these young defenders 1315 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 1: on this team. Uh, this defense is gonna have a 1316 01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 1: chance to grow together. Denzel a very big part of that. 1317 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,120 Speaker 1: This is a Cleveland kid. Man as a Cleveland kid, 1318 01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:25,760 Speaker 1: the tragedy and the loss of his dad, uh the 1319 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,639 Speaker 1: standout player he was at Ohio State, and what he's 1320 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:30,280 Speaker 1: been the last couple of years here has been nothing 1321 01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:33,599 Speaker 1: stored of extraordinary and and now he's gonna be here 1322 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,560 Speaker 1: for at least the next five years with a monumental 1323 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:41,200 Speaker 1: deal that includes UH seventy one guaranteed and the highest 1324 01:09:41,240 --> 01:09:44,759 Speaker 1: paid corner in the National Football League. That's that's awesome. 1325 01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 1: That's awesome. I mean when you think about the core 1326 01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,880 Speaker 1: of this defense, that's all very very young, but of 1327 01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 1: Denzel Ward, Greg Newsom, Miles Garrett, Jeremiah Wusu, Cormoa, John Johnson, 1328 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, Delpit can continue to sent and really what 1329 01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 1: is the second year is basically a rookie last year. 1330 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:01,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you really have the makings of something special. 1331 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 1: Somebody needs to step up in the interior of this 1332 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:05,080 Speaker 1: defensive line, there's no doubt about that. And they need 1333 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 1: to address the defensive end opposite of Miles. But you're 1334 01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:14,080 Speaker 1: talking about a team that has now locked up its 1335 01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,040 Speaker 1: top corner and a long term deal. It's locked up 1336 01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 1: its top pass Rusher in a long term deal. They 1337 01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,880 Speaker 1: gave very little to get him. Are Cooper They've brought in, 1338 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,559 Speaker 1: They brought into Shaun Watson at quarterback. I mean Andrew 1339 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,280 Speaker 1: Berry locked up, He's locked up. Nick Chubb is locked up. 1340 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:30,680 Speaker 1: Why a teller is locked up? Joel Betonio is locked up. 1341 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a pretty darn good job of roster 1342 01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: building that has been done by Andrew Berry and this 1343 01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,519 Speaker 1: front office. Um, the Browns again, we will we will 1344 01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:43,360 Speaker 1: confirm this for you shortly in terms of everything and 1345 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:45,560 Speaker 1: and going out here at Cleveland Browns dot com and 1346 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,680 Speaker 1: the Brown's mobile app, our YouTube channel, all of that. 1347 01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 1: But uh, Denzel Ward will be at Cleveland brown for 1348 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:55,479 Speaker 1: a long long time. And that's a pretty that's a 1349 01:10:55,479 --> 01:10:58,080 Speaker 1: good thing, very good thing. Well, and now all of 1350 01:10:58,120 --> 01:11:01,240 Speaker 1: these this this means that you've you've hit on good people, 1351 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 1: you've hit untalented players, You've developed them and you want 1352 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 1: them to stick around. And this is how you know 1353 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:09,920 Speaker 1: you've arrived. That's because you're getting second big time contracts 1354 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:12,840 Speaker 1: with the most important players. Um, you know that you've 1355 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,200 Speaker 1: drafted in the last last few years or so. So 1356 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 1: it's uh, it's a pretty remarkable thing that's happened here. 1357 01:11:18,680 --> 01:11:22,280 Speaker 1: It really is. It's awesome and Denzel Ward certainly deserves it. 1358 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 1: And when he is on the field, his presence has 1359 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 1: felt uh definitely. When he is not on the field, 1360 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:30,080 Speaker 1: his presence is is it's noticeable in his absence. So 1361 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,360 Speaker 1: this is a great thing to lock him up and 1362 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 1: and look, the Warden of the North is gonna be here. 1363 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,639 Speaker 1: Lockdown at the lake. Let's go, baby. I like it. 1364 01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,120 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, a little some thumbs up there around her, 1365 01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 1: but he's fired up in the building. Yeah, just coursing through, 1366 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:46,920 Speaker 1: coursing through the veins. Yeah, yeah, I think I think 1367 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 1: I saw him walk by and go Scott a boot 1368 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,719 Speaker 1: one of the thing. And Sam Monson points this out, 1369 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:56,720 Speaker 1: Denzel is just twenty four. Yes, he's just twenty four 1370 01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,040 Speaker 1: years the young fellow, so he is. He is very 1371 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 1: very young, um, and and a hearty congratulations to him. 1372 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,320 Speaker 1: You were talking about the tight end room and chief 1373 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 1: and his ascent, and we'll need to add to that room. 1374 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:11,280 Speaker 1: I would say, probably in the draft that could be 1375 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:13,639 Speaker 1: a position that we look to add to here as 1376 01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 1: we get into that. Yeah, there's no doubt. And so 1377 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,759 Speaker 1: as I was mentioned, you've got Chief. You've got Harrison Bryant, 1378 01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 1: who has been you know, he's improved his blocking last year, 1379 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:23,639 Speaker 1: caught seventy of the past has thrown his way twenty 1380 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 1: one catches, two and thirty three yards of three touchdowns. 1381 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,160 Speaker 1: I thought he was better as the season went on. 1382 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:30,760 Speaker 1: I believe he scored three of our last five games, 1383 01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 1: so that's good. But for a team that we used 1384 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 1: to be deep here, Stephen Carlson was our fourth. He's 1385 01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 1: a restricted free agent, but at this point remains unsigned. 1386 01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:41,720 Speaker 1: You've got and Austin Hooper's gone. You've got Chief, You've 1387 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 1: got Harrison Bryant. Also here. Miller Forrestall, who was an 1388 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,200 Speaker 1: undrafted free agent out of Alabama originally signed by the Titans, 1389 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 1: spent time on the practice squad and active roster with 1390 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,479 Speaker 1: the Browns. In one he appeared in two games with 1391 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,680 Speaker 1: eleven snaps and no stats. And then Nick Googomos, who 1392 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:57,799 Speaker 1: was on a reserve futures deal, spent time with Seattle 1393 01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:00,680 Speaker 1: the football team now Commanders, and the Browns and one 1394 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,560 Speaker 1: he was on the practice season practice goad late in 1395 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:04,840 Speaker 1: the season reserve future deal, but not a lot of 1396 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 1: NFL experience behind Chief, Harrison Bright Now, look, we're not 1397 01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 1: a three tight end team anymore. Throw that out, well, 1398 01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 1: we do it sometimes. Absolutely, Are we gonna lead the 1399 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,880 Speaker 1: NFL and three tight end sets. No, we're gonna play 1400 01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 1: I'll heck of a lot more eleven personnel, a heck 1401 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:23,120 Speaker 1: of a lot more because we have now a passing 1402 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,599 Speaker 1: game that is going to allow us to be able 1403 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 1: to do that in our best matchups on the field 1404 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:33,360 Speaker 1: are going to be those matchups. Um, you know, we 1405 01:13:33,400 --> 01:13:35,080 Speaker 1: still have work to do in that receiver room, which 1406 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:36,680 Speaker 1: we'll talk about in a second. But from the tight 1407 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 1: end standpoint, that's where you are today. Chief is your one, Bryant, 1408 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,960 Speaker 1: your two. Got some guys competing to be the depth. 1409 01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 1: But wouldn't surprise me to see us select somebody in 1410 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,000 Speaker 1: the draft at that position as well. All right, we 1411 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,519 Speaker 1: will get into the receivers, and as we do so 1412 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:52,839 Speaker 1: we we acknowledge and uh bring attention to the reports 1413 01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:55,280 Speaker 1: the Denzel Award will be at Cleveland Brown for the 1414 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:57,560 Speaker 1: next five years. Go ahead, I remember that draft, so 1415 01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 1: it's obviously the two thousand and eighteen draft we were doing. 1416 01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 1: I was we were in the Muni lot for a 1417 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:07,679 Speaker 1: huge draft party. All I had heard the entire time 1418 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:09,280 Speaker 1: that I had been here. So first season was two 1419 01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 1: thousand thirteen, why don't we draft somebody from Ohio State. 1420 01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 1: But if you remember in that draft, all the hype 1421 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 1: was around, like people really wanted Bradley Chubb but an 1422 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,599 Speaker 1: excellent rookie year, but then he's battled injuries since then. 1423 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:23,800 Speaker 1: I think it's at North Carolina State if I'm not 1424 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:27,840 Speaker 1: mistake a pass rush. I remember being on stage we 1425 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:31,280 Speaker 1: draft Denzel Ward and I'm like Denzel Ward if people 1426 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 1: were booing like they booed me off the stage, and 1427 01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 1: I was like, we said, we finally drafted a Buckeye 1428 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 1: and and pleased, not pleased at all. And then now 1429 01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:44,880 Speaker 1: look at them, Oh, everybody's pleased. Everybody loves the Warden 1430 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:47,000 Speaker 1: I need. I knew he would, uh, he would earn 1431 01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:49,680 Speaker 1: them or you know, earn their affection and respect. And 1432 01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 1: now he's earned himself a five year, one hundred point 1433 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,639 Speaker 1: five million dollar contract extension, which sounds great. It feels 1434 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 1: like you could that'll go a long way. Yes, really 1435 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 1: spread that round.

Also, 1456 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,599 Speaker 1: you know John Johnson, you had the Kareem Hunt extension. 1457 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:28,320 Speaker 1: I mean it is. It's a pretty wild it's a 1458 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:31,800 Speaker 1: wild thing and very well accomplished, doing a tremendous job. 1459 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 1: And you know you still have some work to do there. 1460 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: And the Browns are gonna you know, they're counting on 1461 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 1: the salary capt going up, They're counting on the fact 1462 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 1: that they will be able to maneuver around it. Um. 1463 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:48,160 Speaker 1: But they are getting people at key positions locked up. 1464 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 1: And what I love about it, And it's kind of 1465 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:52,800 Speaker 1: his philosophy, right, I'm paying Jack Conforton while Jed Wills 1466 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:55,439 Speaker 1: is on his rookie deal. I'm paying uh in this 1467 01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:57,840 Speaker 1: case defensive end. That's why a lot of us think 1468 01:16:57,840 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 1: they will go edge in this draft. But they'll be 1469 01:16:59,360 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 1: able to get an edge on the rookie deal while 1470 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 1: we're paying Miles Geart. Now you may have pay Clowney 1471 01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 1: this year, and I think you would. We would love it. 1472 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 1: Come on back, come on, come on home, test did Evan? 1473 01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:11,000 Speaker 1: That would be great. But you go to the cornerback room. 1474 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,960 Speaker 1: You're paying Denzel while Greg Newsom is on his rookie deal. 1475 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:16,519 Speaker 1: You're paying John Johnson while Grant Delpit is on his 1476 01:17:16,600 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 1: rookie deal. That is something that I think is has 1477 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:22,639 Speaker 1: been a very smart thing that Andrew Barry has done 1478 01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 1: at some of the very very important positions in this league. Yeah, 1479 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,759 Speaker 1: it's it really is, and it's he is. He has 1480 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,960 Speaker 1: checklists of things that need to be done in an 1481 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:35,880 Speaker 1: off season and he just methodically checks boxes. I mean, 1482 01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:38,439 Speaker 1: it's just crazy that you go through an off season 1483 01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:40,240 Speaker 1: and nothing is left unchecked. By the time you get 1484 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 1: to the next season, there's still a lot more things 1485 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:43,760 Speaker 1: to check on this box, but a lot of the 1486 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,880 Speaker 1: big things have been accomplished, and getting Denzel Ward extended 1487 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:49,720 Speaker 1: was certainly, uh something that needed to be done. It 1488 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 1: now is done. One of the other things that need 1489 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 1: to be done is you need to get a number 1490 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:54,720 Speaker 1: one a receiver. You get it, You get a Mariy 1491 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:57,360 Speaker 1: Cooper in a trade, and then that room will have 1492 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 1: perhaps some other names going into it as well, who knows, 1493 01:18:00,640 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 1: but certainly draft free agent who knows, they will add 1494 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,720 Speaker 1: to that room as is. It's a fun room. It 1495 01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:07,840 Speaker 1: has a chance to be a great room. Yeah, and 1496 01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. And like I said, I don't believe that 1497 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 1: the work is done there, but Amari Cooper is a 1498 01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:15,439 Speaker 1: big piece of what they are trying to do. I 1499 01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 1: think you'd love to get a vertical component to go 1500 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:20,320 Speaker 1: with him, because he is just such a stud in 1501 01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:22,840 Speaker 1: terms of his route running, in terms of his ability 1502 01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 1: to to make plays, and that's what you love about him. 1503 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:27,439 Speaker 1: But you think about, you know, the guys that going 1504 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 1: into the season last year, talking about a remade room. 1505 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 1: Going into season last year, you would have thought your 1506 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 1: top three receivers were Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry, and Hollywoodhiggins. 1507 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:39,839 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham unsigned Jarvis Landry and signed Hollywood Higgins Carolina Panthers, 1508 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:43,679 Speaker 1: So it is a complete rebuild. Now. Donovan People's Jones 1509 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:46,160 Speaker 1: ended up being one of those top three and actually 1510 01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:50,840 Speaker 1: supplanting Hollywood Higgins in that role. And he's had a 1511 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:54,880 Speaker 1: great He's done a great job coming and in developing 1512 01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:57,559 Speaker 1: in his young career. And if you look at you know, 1513 01:18:57,640 --> 01:18:59,679 Speaker 1: last year, in terms of what he was able to do, 1514 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: it was very impressive. He goes from three hundred four 1515 01:19:02,439 --> 01:19:05,439 Speaker 1: yards in his rookie season and then Donovan People's Jones 1516 01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:09,080 Speaker 1: takes a big leap last year while maintaining those big 1517 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:11,840 Speaker 1: yards per catch, which I thought was a huge thing 1518 01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 1: for him and for the Cleveland Browns. So, but he 1519 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,639 Speaker 1: is your top in terms of guys coming back, that's 1520 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 1: your number one receiver coming back. And Donovan People's Jones 1521 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:23,920 Speaker 1: last year. In terms of guys from last year. I 1522 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:26,439 Speaker 1: know we've added a Mamori Cooper, but Donovan People's Jones 1523 01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 1: very productive for you. Five hundred ninety seven yards seventeen 1524 01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:32,920 Speaker 1: point six yards to catch three touchdowns. This is the 1525 01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 1: thing that I think is amazing about him, and we 1526 01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:36,960 Speaker 1: talked about that with Chad o'sha. He only has seventy 1527 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 1: eight targets in his career and he has nine hundred 1528 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:42,559 Speaker 1: and one yards receiving five touchdowns in average and eighteen 1529 01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 1: point eight yards of catch. That efficiency, that efficiency right there, 1530 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 1: If you average ten yards of target, you are performing 1531 01:19:49,280 --> 01:19:52,519 Speaker 1: at an elite level at the wide receiver position. And 1532 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:54,839 Speaker 1: and a great receiver would get a hundred plus targets 1533 01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 1: ten yards target. Do the math very easy, see they'd 1534 01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:00,040 Speaker 1: be over a thousand yards. Donovan People's Jones nine in 1535 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 1: the yards, seventy eight targets eleven and a half yards 1536 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 1: of target. That is ridiculous efficiency for a guy that 1537 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:08,679 Speaker 1: should continue to get better, hopefully be able to play faster. 1538 01:20:08,720 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 1: He's much more of a contexted catch guy than he 1539 01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:15,120 Speaker 1: is necessarily a a burner for a monster separator. But 1540 01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:18,280 Speaker 1: he has been incredibly efficient for this football team, and 1541 01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:19,880 Speaker 1: I think that that's a guy that you want to 1542 01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:22,479 Speaker 1: see it take the leap forward. But Amari Cooper, he's 1543 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 1: gonna have to be the guy right now as we 1544 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,280 Speaker 1: know it, the number one receiver and the guy who's 1545 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 1: got inside out versatility for the Cleveland Browns. Comes to 1546 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,160 Speaker 1: this team a four time Pro Bowler. Uh you look 1547 01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:35,400 Speaker 1: at his seasons, you know, the last couple of years 1548 01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:37,439 Speaker 1: he's got in the year that he gots traded to 1549 01:20:37,479 --> 01:20:39,839 Speaker 1: Dallas A thousand and five and seven, he's got eight 1550 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 1: nine and eleven, fourteen and five and last year in 1551 01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:47,240 Speaker 1: fourteen games, eight sixty five and eight touchdowns catches for 1552 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 1: his crew, about six of his targets averages eight point 1553 01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:53,519 Speaker 1: seven yards per target for his career coming off of 1554 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:55,719 Speaker 1: the sin Dallas verging nine point one yards per target. 1555 01:20:56,760 --> 01:21:01,320 Speaker 1: Marie Cooper a very very effective, very real good receiver. 1556 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 1: But right now it's those two. You have. Anthony Schwartz, 1557 01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 1: w you thought was gonna have a big year after 1558 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 1: that initial game down to Kansas City, did not materialize. 1559 01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:15,280 Speaker 1: You've got Felton, You've got JaMarcus Bradley, You've got Jachem Grant. 1560 01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:17,640 Speaker 1: But we need a couple more guys in there. And 1561 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 1: I think what you're looking at is, can we get 1562 01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:22,240 Speaker 1: one more guy on the outside who can stretch the defense? 1563 01:21:22,520 --> 01:21:24,639 Speaker 1: And free agency that could be a guy like Will Fuller, 1564 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 1: or perhaps you find somebody in the draft, whether that 1565 01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 1: ends up being a George Pickens, whether it because and 1566 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:32,120 Speaker 1: Alex Pearce in the third round, a big X receiver 1567 01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:34,639 Speaker 1: who can stretch the field. And then you need somebody, 1568 01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 1: I think, who can be your your slot guy. And 1569 01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 1: so that's why the scenarios open that Jarvis Landry can 1570 01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:42,599 Speaker 1: come back. That's why Khalil Shakour maybe in the third 1571 01:21:42,720 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 1: round out of Boise States, a guy that can make 1572 01:21:44,320 --> 01:21:46,680 Speaker 1: sense for the Cleveland Browns to fill that role. But 1573 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:50,799 Speaker 1: there are multitude of ways to attack that wide receiver position, 1574 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:52,840 Speaker 1: and I think the Browns will do so with at 1575 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:55,639 Speaker 1: least you know, one in the draft, one in free 1576 01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,360 Speaker 1: agency to to round out this room. This room is 1577 01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 1: still incomplete to me. Now now I know John McLean 1578 01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:03,080 Speaker 1: says you don't need to invest lot in the receiver room, 1579 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,679 Speaker 1: because you've got such a good quarterback and the stats 1580 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:08,040 Speaker 1: honestly would back that up. But you want to make 1581 01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,559 Speaker 1: sure you've got the juice that you need to be effective. 1582 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:13,160 Speaker 1: And Schwartz is a guy that if he can take 1583 01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:14,920 Speaker 1: a big leap in year two and we're asking for 1584 01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:18,439 Speaker 1: a lot, but he has the speed to play that 1585 01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 1: vertical role for this football team. That's what he was 1586 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:22,599 Speaker 1: drafted to do as a third round or a year ago. Well, 1587 01:22:22,640 --> 01:22:24,519 Speaker 1: I mean we asked chat Oh about that last week. 1588 01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:26,880 Speaker 1: He's in with us about about Schwartz taking that step, 1589 01:22:26,880 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 1: and he kind of lit up with the idea that 1590 01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:31,559 Speaker 1: that perhaps he could make that. But yeah, I'm with you. 1591 01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you need you. You you need 1592 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:35,680 Speaker 1: someone who can come in and help right away. And 1593 01:22:35,720 --> 01:22:37,240 Speaker 1: then I think you do need to do some future 1594 01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 1: planning here as well in terms of having another You 1595 01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 1: need another guy, You need a big You need another one. 1596 01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:45,840 Speaker 1: It's not a one too, you need it to Amari's 1597 01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:48,680 Speaker 1: the one you needed to probably in there. Donovan as 1598 01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:50,760 Speaker 1: good as a two three. You need somebody in their 1599 01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:53,360 Speaker 1: complementary as well, Um, who you could put out on 1600 01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:55,599 Speaker 1: the outside and make some plays. And maybe that's Donovan 1601 01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 1: you know, there's always the stuff with Jarvis that's not 1602 01:22:57,800 --> 01:22:59,519 Speaker 1: going to go around away. I think that there was 1603 01:22:59,560 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 1: obviously mutual affection between I mean, you know how much 1604 01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:04,280 Speaker 1: we love him, We know much the organization loves him. 1605 01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:06,000 Speaker 1: We know how much he loves the organization, much he 1606 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:07,680 Speaker 1: loves the town, and much he loves the fans. So 1607 01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:09,880 Speaker 1: you know, I think all of those things add up 1608 01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 1: and and put you in a pretty good place in 1609 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 1: terms of going forward. But this room, of the ones 1610 01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:16,000 Speaker 1: that we discussed on offense, this one has the chance 1611 01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:18,240 Speaker 1: to be the most changed by the time we get 1612 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 1: to May. Yeah, I mean it's gonna be the most 1613 01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:24,200 Speaker 1: turnover room from last year, and it will I think 1614 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 1: it still has. There will be two probably principal individuals added. 1615 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 1: And if you have those two that are principal, and 1616 01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, your receiver room is you know, 1617 01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:38,200 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, a couple of new guys, DPJ and Schwartz, 1618 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:40,840 Speaker 1: Like that's a pretty stout one to five Dimitric Felton 1619 01:23:40,920 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 1: is going to try to make it as a Swiss 1620 01:23:42,200 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 1: army knife grants your punt returner, and a guy who's 1621 01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:46,960 Speaker 1: been able to hit some big plays in his career 1622 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:55,920 Speaker 1: as well. Jake Trotter just retweeted Denzel's Instagram that's it 1623 01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 1: is a good mood. That's awesome. I can you imagine that. 1624 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:04,360 Speaker 1: I mean that that you imagine a Cleveland kid, you know, 1625 01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:09,120 Speaker 1: highest state kid getting this contract here to stick around, Like, 1626 01:24:09,200 --> 01:24:13,640 Speaker 1: how cool that is? Man's that's a dream. That is 1627 01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:17,360 Speaker 1: your wildest dreams coming true. You're living your wildest dreams. 1628 01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:20,000 Speaker 1: You don't dare to dream this big and it it's 1629 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:22,439 Speaker 1: happening for Denzel Ward. He's one of the best kids. Man. 1630 01:24:22,479 --> 01:24:27,679 Speaker 1: He deserves it. Awesome, awesome player, awesome teammates. And you'll 1631 01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:31,519 Speaker 1: see the teammates, the reactions from the teammates. They absolutely 1632 01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:36,240 Speaker 1: love him. And I think when you see these types 1633 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 1: of deal gun and by the way, I say kudos, 1634 01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:42,639 Speaker 1: say Andrew Barry. I think Andrew Berry is again locking 1635 01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,840 Speaker 1: up a premium position. The salary cap is only gonna 1636 01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 1: go up and up and up and up and up 1637 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 1: and up once it's direct TV deal or not direct TV. 1638 01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 1: But if it goes to Apple team, that's gonna be 1639 01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:56,559 Speaker 1: more money to get these guys, Miles Denzel DeShawn under 1640 01:24:56,680 --> 01:25:00,160 Speaker 1: these deals. Now, I think he's massive. I think eight 1641 01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 1: job by Andrew Barry and and it's cool to see 1642 01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 1: a Brown's team and organization where the stars are the stars, 1643 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 1: and the Stars eight want to stay here be are 1644 01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:16,720 Speaker 1: staying here and are being obviously paid quite handsomely to 1645 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:19,800 Speaker 1: do so. But that's that's what the NFL is about. Yeah, 1646 01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:21,760 Speaker 1: when you draft your guys and then you give them 1647 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:24,840 Speaker 1: big second extensions, that's the deal. Core. That's it. So 1648 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:27,200 Speaker 1: the Core is in very very good shape here, still 1649 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:28,760 Speaker 1: so much more to come.
