Speaker 1: guys who did excel in but a lot of question

45
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: marks going Steen. But let's start with the top headlines.

46
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 1: The camera highlights in the world of sports, breaking, breaking news, breaking,

47
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: continue to follow, breaking news, news, has your wife. Not

48
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: too many headlines, but the one big one, of course,

49
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: involves Colin at Kaepernick. It looks like he's gonna stay

50
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: in San Francisco, although Denver and San Francisco remain very

51
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: very close. It's like Defcon five or whatever. The def

52
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: con is that I never remember the bad one. They're

53
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: so close, it's the lower whatever. I always go def

54
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: Con three. Defcon five sounds so much more, so much

55
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 1: more urgent. Uh No. But Denver in San Francisco trying

56
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: to work out a deal. It sounded like they had

57
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: something done in principle, but of course, salary cap restrictions

58
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: kind of we're limiting the options there. They wanted Kaepernick

59
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: to take a massive pay cut. Uh something I think

60
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: they wanted to knock off like six million dollars off

61
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: of his salary or some four point nine four point

62
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: nine million. That's a lot of money, man Um and Kaepernick,

63
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: you know, as is his right, said, uh, no, I'm good,

64
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm I'm gonna play in San Francisco if

65
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: need be played for Chip Killy new head coach and

66
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: take home that whatever it is, twelve million or whatever

67
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: it is that he's uh. Is it worrisome though that

68
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: some guy? I mean, obviously the forty Niners are not

69
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: going to be that great of an organization this year.

70
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: Chip Kelly last couple of years, little uh, little cracks

71
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: in his UH facade, and I you're looking at the

72
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champions Uh, a team that should have another

73
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: good defense because as long I understand they're losing players,

74
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: but as long as Wade Phillips is there, they're still

75
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: gonna be good defensively. So you don't, I understand there's

76
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: a lot of money being left on the table, but

77
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: at some point you're like, I'll make it back when

78
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: I win. I don't disagree with that, Um, but the

79
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: I think the fact that Mark Sanchez, I know it's

80
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: just sound crazy, but the fact that Mark Sanchez looms there,

81
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: that they made a trade for Mark Sanchez. And again,

82
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: this is a team, the Denver Broncos, that just finished

83
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: a championship campaign, really running a platoon at quarterback. Um,

84
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 1: I don't didn't even play in the in the Super

85
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: There you go. An argument could be made there, But

86
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing. It's I don't think they're

87
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: afraid to go that route. I think Cap sees that,

88
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: or maybe his representation sees at I don't know if

89
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: Cat he's even his head in the game enough to

90
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: even notice that. Plus it's easy for us to be

91
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: so cavalier with other people's money. Yeah, as I'm saying now,

92
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: it's starting to sound, Um, what's the best fantasy fit

93
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: for Colin Kaepernick? And I guess what would be the

94
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: ramifications the implications, um for the trade if it went down,

95
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: or even if it didn't go down. I mean, I

96
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: think it's Denver. I think Denver is the best spot

97
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: for him obviously, um from a football standpoint, because that

98
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: defense is still so good and I expected to continue

99
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: to be good next year. Um, there's not as much

100
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: pressure on him to go out and have to win games,

101
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: because as long as you don't have any major screw ups,

102
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: that defense will keep you in every single game. Um,

103
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: fantasy wise, I mean, I think I think the offense

104
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: is a fit for him. He can go back to

105
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: that pistol that he was very successful with when he

106
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 1: was at Nevat. I mean, that's how he made his

107
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: name playing in Reno with that pistol offense. Oh god,

108
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: and I got so tired of hearing about that. Dangs

109
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: and he and he has he would have better offensive

110
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: weapons than anywhere. I mean, you know, they talked about

111
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: the Brownlns potentially, and obviously the forty Niners are still

112
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: in play. Neither of those teams has the weapons that

113
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: the Broncos have. I mean, you know, Simpson, you're not scared.

114
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, de Andre Smelter And I mean but just

115
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: on a you know, the various Thomas, Emmanuel Sanders, c

116
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: J Anderson. Uh, that right there, I think gives him

117
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: more more value than he would any who has a

118
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 1: worse offensive roster Cleveland or San Francisco. Oh that was

119
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: a pregnant pause. What if Josh Gordon comes back? Stop

120
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: stop quick, quick crying about like the people crying about

121
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: crying Jordan's emes on Twitter. I like crying Jordan. Just

122
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: enjoy it. How many people are rooting for North Carolina

123
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: to lose less? Just did somebody crying Jordan Jordan's Yes,

124
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, James. There was a great one where

125
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: they showed it was actually him in the stands looking

126
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,679
Speaker 1: at his phone. On his phone, was him getting crying

127
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: Jordan's and it was a treat like panel comic, and

128
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: then it cut back to him and he was crying Jordan's.

129
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: People were people were on fire last night. Anyway, our

130
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: best filmmakers are most creative, right are making YouTube mashups

131
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: and crying Jordan's. That's where all our great filmmakers are.

132
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: That's good, all right. Should we move on Fantasy Fools Goal.

133
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: Let's do it. NFL dot com slash buyer beware, NFL

134
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: dot com slash buyer beware. It's basically h the gentlemen

135
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: here talking about, you know, Fantasy Fools Goal. Going into

136
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: it was in honor of April Fools Day last Friday.

137
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: You know, you liked to kind of try and playing

138
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: in the news a little bit. So I was just

139
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: looking at a couple of guys whose production was a

140
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: bit surprising and question marks. They could be fool's goal

141
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: depending on when you draft him, if you're expecting that

142
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: same level of production. It's like a guy on there,

143
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin. I really think Doug Baldwin is gonna be

144
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: great next year. But he's you're gonna be fooled if

145
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: you draft him expecting fourteen touchtos again. Okay, Doug Baldwin, Okay,

146
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: hit me. He's become the Batman versus Superman, where everybody's

147
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: just decided ahead of time. Oh my gosh, terrible. I

148
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: was gonna wait till Daily Dad. I was gonna wait

149
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: till Daily Dame. But can I say this. I watched

150
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: it last night with the wife, okay, and I am

151
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: trying to rack my brain. Asked her how people can

152
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 1: think it is a bad movie because it is? Is it?

153
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: Is it a great movie? No, it's not a great movie.

154
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: It's tonight. But is it as bad movie? No, it's

155
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: not a bad movie. It's impossible for people to think

156
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: this is a bad movie. Obviously it's not. It is.

157
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: It's not a bad movie. But that's the thing. Everybody

158
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: decided ahead of time. We're not going to like this

159
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: I agree, and you go in with that mindset like

160
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick it all apart, and like I if

161
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,079
Speaker 1: I like, I do this with a lot of Marvel movies.

162
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: I go in not liking them, and then a lot

163
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: of times my expectations are met, like now this is

164
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: stupid four two most Riders, second, even the second, even

165
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: the second Avengers movie. Most movies weren't. I'm gonna pause

166
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: for this because this tangent is already getting out of control.

167
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 1: Let's save it for daily tes have to fantasy. I

168
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: want to hurry up and get through fantasy. But this

169
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: is the one thing I was sorry, go go, go

170
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: is Let's say a reasonable expectation one thousand, eighty nine yards,

171
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: ten touchdowns. Yeah, that's that's wide receiver too, exactly. That's

172
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: that's where Alan Hearns was. And that's what I'm saying.

173
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 1: I say in the piece, you don't have to reach

174
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: No, no no, no, I'm besmirching it because I want you to.

175
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: I want you to go hard. I want you to

176
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: say he's to be a bust, like he's gonna have

177
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: four touchdowns off. Oh this this whole piece was a

178
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: mix of guys who but I shouldn't buy into it all,

179
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: like Ruben Randall and guys who if you buy into

180
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: that price, you might be disappointed. But it's like the

181
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham last year. If you wanted him to have

182
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: his ridiculous like eighteen point per game average, you weren't

183
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: going to get it. However, he was still like the one.

184
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: How many people were? I mean, I guess how many

185
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: people are really expecting that? I mean, I think most people.

186
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: But he's expecting Doug Baldwood to go for five touchdowns

187
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: in three games or whatever it is, you know what

188
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean. It's like, I just I don't think people

189
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: are expecting that. What's the price right now for Doug?

190
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: Sixth round? If you'll play in Yeah? And if I

191
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: if I went running back heavy in my in my

192
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: early part of my draft, because that's where I was,

193
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm buying a Dug bald in the sixth round? Why not?

194
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: Pretty like? I think he's a pretty safe pick. I think, uh,

195
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: I think that offense has now changed because I I

196
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: agree we talked about it on Total Access on Friday,

197
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: is that Marshawn Lynch is gone. And even though Tommy

198
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: Rawls is somebody that everybody's gonna try to wedge in

199
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: there as somebody who's just gonna take that torch. Like

200
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch was a pretty special talent, special one thing.

201
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: It's not easy to replace these guys with like this

202
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: guy will just come in. You're like no, no, no,

203
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: like you've You've got to have a number of combinations

204
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: of things to work for you. So I feel that

205
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: the Seahawks offense is gonna be throwing the ball a

206
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: little bit more. Um And Doug Baldwin had a legitimate

207
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: breakout season. He so sixth round. You guys are all comfortable, obviously,

208
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: I am fifth round. No, that's right now fantasy, that's

209
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: where he's a fifth round guy. Um, No, because I

210
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: think there are other guys available in the fifth that

211
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: are not just not only safer, but half high up

212
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: right now, He's he's going ahead right now of Tyler Eiffort,

213
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklan, Alan Hearn's Golden Tate, Emmanuel Sanders, Eric Decker.

214
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: These are some of the guys that that Doug Baldwin

215
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: is going ahead of. I you know, I don't know

216
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: man if if I mean the Decker thing is interesting

217
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: because we don't know what's up with fifth right, So

218
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: it's the Sanders thing he could have Sant has thrown.

219
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: Uncle Chaps is reporting, oh good that Mike Glennon has

220
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: been acquired by the Goods. I almost, I almost, you

221
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: almost got champion. He was posing as Jake Glazer and

222
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, j he's good. Let's drip thro a

223
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 1: couple other guys in this. Lankford is one I want

224
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: to talk about because we hit him a little bit

225
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: on here, but a dug deeper into it. And uh,

226
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 1: Mike clay over at Pro Football Focus and I think

227
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: he's working with ESPN now too, did a really great

228
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: study about how all the running backs in the league

229
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: fared against base defense and nickel and stuff like that.

230
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: And Lankford was the worst back in the league when

231
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: running against base defenses. So the defense he's probably going

232
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: to see the most of that you would hope you

233
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: could get decent chunk yardage against. He was. He was

234
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: bad at He also like led the league I think

235
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: and drop percentage among running backs and stuff. So for him,

236
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: when his asking price is creeping into that second round

237
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: top of the third, you'll pass, I will pass might

238
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: be a time to be a little bit wary if

239
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: you're a fantasy drafter there, especially given the fact that

240
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: you know, as we've always mentioned, they've tried to they

241
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: try to get c. J. Anderson, They're they've been flirting

242
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: with a couple other n facts. Yeah, it's really it's

243
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: really interesting because what we saw in in the highlights,

244
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: it's almost impossible to ignore because what he did was

245
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: was special out there. Man, the explosiveness, the you know

246
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: and again going even going back to his college days,

247
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: the the production. Um, what we saw in terms of

248
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: highlights from Jeremy Lankford hard to ignore. But as the

249
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: off season is progressing, we're starting to see a lot

250
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: more um like next level analytics and and and those

251
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: stats tell us buy or beware on Jeremy Lands. And

252
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: this is actually kind of this was kind of reinforcing

253
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: for me because when I I studied Jeremy Lankford last

254
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: year for Prospect Today, and I wasn't like, because he

255
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: does have some pop highlights, but when you watched the

256
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: total package, it was kind of like, Okay, he's good,

257
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: but like not not great or maybe not true feature backworthy.

258
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: So some of the stuff now that people have had

259
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: more time to dive into his rookie year seems to

260
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 1: have bored that out. Can he He could easily take

261
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 1: that step next year, But right now, man, that seems

262
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: like a big question mark to be looking at and

263
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: round top bottom around two, top, around three. I mean,

264
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: Michigan State running backs trans let's do it. I mean,

265
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,959
Speaker 1: I think my biggest concern, and you kind of touched

266
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: on it with the c. J. Anderson thing. I mean,

267
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: do you know Manager Ryan Pace has pretty much just said, yeah,

268
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: we're gonna be a committee this year. I mean just

269
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: just flat out said it. And when we were talking

270
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: about this in like February, that just seems I mean,

271
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: we aren't sold on Lankford as our workhorse guy. The

272
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: ghost of the the the the body of of Matt

273
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: fourteen isn't even cold yet, and they're talking about committees. No,

274
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: they ain't even taking the name off his locker yet.

275
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: Well that's uh, that's a John Fox staple, going back

276
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: to his time with the Carolina Panthers, with John Stewart

277
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: and the Angelo Williams. Maybe even a little bit in

278
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: Denver as well. Although when c. J. Anderson started to

279
00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 1: separate himself away from Monty Ball and Ronnie Hillman that

280
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: they gave the ball to him a lot, and and

281
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: the thing is, he was a rookie last year, so

282
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a little bit of an adjustment period.

283
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: It was telling to me that he was able to

284
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: leap ahead of the veteran cadeem Carry, and John Fox

285
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: loves to lean on on the veterans, and he even

286
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: gave Carry the start when Forte was out here. Just

287
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: kind of thing. That's what Fox. That was hilarious first

288
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: Carry the f plus you know what that the Bears

289
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: offensive line is being rebuilt a little bit and now

290
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna be moving Kyle Along back to the guard position,

291
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: I think, which will be more beneficial for him. And

292
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: I expect that. I know everybody will roll their eyes

293
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: because I'm a Bears fan, but I think the Bears

294
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: will be better this year. I think John fo he's

295
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: a legit coach, and I think that with Angio, the

296
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: defense is starting to come along, and they were. They

297
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: were competitive last year, and I think this year they

298
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: take another step forward, and I think Langford could start

299
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: to pull away from that committee. It will be very

300
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: telling what they do in the draft. If they do

301
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: draft another running back, in the first three rounds and

302
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: you know, put up the warning lights. Can Can I

303
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: make this argument for Jeremy Lankford from a fantasy perspective,

304
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: I think. I think those analytics and I've seen them

305
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: to um basically tell a story of Jeremy Lankford being

306
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: a very average running back, I think. But I think

307
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: those stats tell you that he's an average running back

308
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: in real life. From a fantasy perspective, can he get

309
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: me one big pop play a game, because that's all

310
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: that matters? Right? If he can break off a fifty

311
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: yard run and then chip in, you know, thirty yards

312
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: and occasionally get you a touchdown here and there, that's

313
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: all that mattered. How frequently are those fifty yard runs coming? No,

314
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: nobody in the league's popping off an average of a

315
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: fifty yard running game. No, no, I hear you, No, no,

316
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 1: I hear you. But if that's the case, he's going

317
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: to be extremely high variant, especially if he's splitting character.

318
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: You could get me, Harry's excuse me, if you could

319
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: find me a running back who I can get guaranteed,

320
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: that's example of a pop play, fellas. That's all I'm saying.

321
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: Yard team, whatever, that's certainly why he's climbed so high

322
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: in offseason a DP. I'm just why I put him

323
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: on the Foods call while that's there. It seems like

324
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: that's just that's a risky bet to try and rely

325
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: on that, especially when he might be, you know, splitting

326
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: carries heavily in a committee. Just making that argument, No,

327
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: it's fair. Uh, Ted Gin another guy? He ain't catching

328
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: Ted touchdown for Teddy game? Why does it like, let's

329
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 1: have the internet and everybody go after Ted Gain. Doug

330
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: Baldwin alone. Baldwin is a legitimate wide receiver. Again, Like

331
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 1: if you want to talk like Ted Gain season was

332
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: more flukey because Baldwin he just watching. You're like, oh,

333
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: like he's played. Baldwin played great, played pretty well. He

334
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: dropped a lot of chances. I wanted to hit on

335
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: two more names. Cope, we don't have to hit everybody,

336
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 1: like you said, people can read it by everywhere. Uh.

337
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: The Ivory one I found interesting because one of the

338
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: narratives coming in was that they brought him in too

339
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: obviously be a goal line back. And I didn't know

340
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: this was a limited sample because I didn't do that.

341
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:08,719
Speaker 1: I didn't do the whole study. I didn't have time

342
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: when I did it, of how many plays they actually

343
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: ran in the place. What percentage they got yelled and

344
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: only got six carries inside the five yard still blows

345
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 1: my mind. I see that, and I feel like it's

346
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: a type of like he got six carries inside the

347
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: five yard line only converted for a touchdown. Meanwhile, I'veory

348
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: got eighteen converted five for touchdown, almost doubled the percentage

349
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: of what yelled in did on those. And there were

350
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: a couple too. I watched all the plays where I've

351
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: ready gotten no help from his blockers. He was hit

352
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: in the backfield, so if we were to take those out,

353
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: his conversion rate would go even higher. But still like

354
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: they've already come out and said that they're going to

355
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: split work with these guys, and it's like late late

356
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: rounds shut But you can't. You can't reach too high

357
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: for either of these backs. Right now, I want you

358
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 1: want to know how how much this freaks. This is

359
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: a kind of a red flag. Alex Gelhar is worried

360
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: about Chris Ivory. Very good the man who was driving

361
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: in look I got I have no beef with Chris Ivory,

362
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: but you know Alex was driving by Chris Marcos update

363
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: the buses explode the buses Yeah, so um, I mean

364
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: I think that tells you something about how things have

365
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,239
Speaker 1: changed over the course of free agency. Um. And then

366
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 1: the other one to hit on is Dalton who last

367
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton who last year had was having a really

368
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 1: great season to start, he had all the weapons, everybody

369
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 1: was healthy, he finally progressed. Um, Hugh Jackson was calling

370
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: great plays this year. However, Hugh Jackson's gone, the news gone,

371
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 1: Jones is gone. So I think like Dalton, maybe late

372
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: round value, but I feel much more comfortable with her

373
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: as a stream him as a streamer this year because

374
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: of just the defensive, the offensive turnover. Who are you

375
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: thinking of that? You? I don't know, guys. I only

376
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: had one cup of coffee this morning. Gosh, Like, I

377
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 1: don't even know where you're going with that. But I've

378
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: I think I've been on record with this before. I

379
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: I feel the Bengals are gonna be terrible. I'm looking

380
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: at four wins. You cannot continue to lose those close

381
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: playoff games year in seven years. And then this one,

382
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,479
Speaker 1: the one against the Steelers, is that should have been

383
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,399
Speaker 1: I would have fired everybody. That's an all time I

384
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: would have hired Hugh Jackson maybe, but I would have

385
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: fired I stop, we're done. We're just I mean the Bengals,

386
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,719
Speaker 1: I mean they probably ultimately don't care. They're like, yeah, whatever,

387
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: our stadium kind of sells out, and yeah we're okay,

388
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: we're making money. We got the shared television deals. So

389
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: maybe winning isn't that important. But I don't know. I

390
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: look at it with Hugh Jackson, gone, I see this

391
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: being a miserable franchise and anybody who's gonna be taking

392
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: a shot on Andy Dalton when there are so many

393
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: other quarterbacks out there that you could be looking at.

394
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: That's the one thing. It's like whenever, um, whenever we

395
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: do these like total access things wherever people come over

396
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:42,919
Speaker 1: and get our opinion, like hey, what do you think

397
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: about captain? Like who cares? Like honestly, like, these guys

398
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: are so far down the list it it really doesn't matter,

399
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: like you, it doesn't like you could literally not draft

400
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback and then just start streaming week in a

401
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 1: week out and you'll be fine, especially if you're in

402
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 1: the league where you where you get four touched four

403
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: points for a touchdown pass. Then it's like, then a

404
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: quarterback doesn't even matter. Your your kicker is more important. Goskowski,

405
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: So that a read it NFL dot com slash byer

406
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: beware alright, check it out friends. Rookie running backs. First

407
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: of all, Rookie running backs are always so exciting. Man,

408
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: they are. I mean because the wide receivers, you know,

409
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: they there's a learning curve right a little bit. We

410
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: even like I feel it's over. It's uh, it's understated

411
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: because like rookie running backs really don't I mean, they

412
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: don't really have that huge of an impact, not as

413
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: much as people anticipate. Because every time there's a Melvin

414
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 1: Gordon or even Ryan Matthews in this first year taking over,

415
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: you gotta find that one Ladadi and Tomlinson, Like I

416
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: don't remember Levian Bell being exceptional. Missrookie could be miss misremembering. No,

417
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: I think you're right, but it seems to me, like,

418
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: but think about running backs. Everybody goes so hyper over

419
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: them and then they're like, man, they're fine. Like even

420
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: if you went back and looked at um Emmett Smith,

421
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: I was just curious, so like what was he doing

422
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: his right year? He was like, fine, The thing is

423
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: more so now than back in the day, is running

424
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: backs becoming a young man's position. So that's why there

425
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: is always opportunity for rookie runners to succeed. They like

426
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: the running back position in general, it's very volatile, like, yes,

427
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: we'll get our Todd Gurley center, David Johnson's will also

428
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: get our amirs and Melvin Gordon's, but it's a lot

429
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 1: of these guys are going to come into situations where

430
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: they could either start as the featured back as Melvin

431
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: Gordon did, or they could earn that that position later

432
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: in the year. So it's worth you know, studying them

433
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 1: and taking shots on them later in rounds well and again, man,

434
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: you gotta just find that one. That's that's what I

435
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: always believe, right, like you gotta of course, every position

436
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: super volatile, but rookie running backs to me are so

437
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: interesting because of all the offensive rookies that come in,

438
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: these are the it's the one position group that you

439
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: could pretty much say guaranteed for sure, there's gonna be

440
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: one guy in this class that's gonna make a fantasy impact. Yeah,

441
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like New Year's Eve though for the

442
00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 1: anticipation just far ultimately doesn't. Uh. I mean, there's like

443
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 1: you could look back in your life and be like, oh,

444
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: there was a couple of New Years that were really

445
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: fun that we're really awesome. But for the most part,

446
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, man, we spent all this time thinking

447
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: about this, making all these plans, and this is what happened.

448
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: People are falling asleep at eleven thirty whatever. And so

449
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: I mean even Girly last I mean, Girly was great

450
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: last year, but he wasn't great. It wasn't like he

451
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: was listening. He was good, but it did not if

452
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 1: you look at a flow chart where the hype versus

453
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: the production, I think the hype clearly. I mean, no,

454
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: he didn't quite live up to the hype because everybody

455
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: is hyper like everybody was really excited about him, and

456
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: I mean obviously a mere Abdula was somebody I was

457
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: very fond of me hit that one run in the

458
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: preseason and everyone lost their mind exactly and it was

459
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: but a lot of it it's just kind of like

460
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: just still failing to see how you think Todd Gurley

461
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: didn't reach the hype. He missed the first basically four

462
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: games of this season or three games of the season

463
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: and still finishes the RB five amazing. I thought he

464
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 1: was great. First of all, how terrible the position? What

465
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: do you do? Are you? Are you trying to drive

466
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: his price down so you can grab him? What's starting?

467
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 1: He's just trying to be hipster like when you try

468
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: and he tells. He tells kids to go to go

469
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 1: Yahoo something right, Google? So what's wrong with Yahoo? Go'll

470
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: ask Jeeves? I get you go go bang go bing

471
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: legitimate thing because like I play a lot of my fans,

472
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 1: like my Fantasy Baseball, it's on Yahoo. So it's like

473
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: easier just to be on the Yahoo. I'm just teasing.

474
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,239
Speaker 1: Let's let's get into No, no, no no, you guys do that.

475
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: I want to if you look at his game by game,

476
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: you do the research we're gonna talking about. He was good.

477
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,640
Speaker 1: I have it right now. So the first game where

478
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: you played like five snaps one point four points, I

479
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: remember that sixteen fifteen point nine point three, twenty point six,

480
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: sixteen point nine, fourteen point nine, ten point six, two

481
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: bad weeks three four point one tw six nine. That

482
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 1: was this early. That one doesn't count. That should gets

483
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 1: you hot and bothered. Man, that's a that's a game

484
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: log right there. Yeah, I guess it was this stretch

485
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: on December six and November twenty nine where he just

486
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: did those Those two weeks were scary. He played two

487
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: tough defenses Cincinnati and Arizona, but then he brutal bad.

488
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,400
Speaker 1: I guess it was better than I was thinking. It's okay,

489
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: I did win my league with him. Zeke. Let's get

490
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: into Ezekiel Elliott, no question about it. Um. I was

491
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 1: hyper on this dude last year. Man, I said last year,

492
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: I thought he was the best running back in that conference. Um,

493
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 1: this year in the class. Uh yeah, well knowing that conference,

494
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: but that conference last year, oh yeah was silly. I

495
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 1: see what you're saying. It was ridiculous in the Big ten.

496
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,919
Speaker 1: Gordon and h Coleman and Cobb, all those dudes, it

497
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:58,639
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. Wars him out for David Cobby. But um,

498
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 1: but yeah, he enters into this UM draft as I mean,

499
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: a super interesting prospect. Gail her, what's your take on Zeke?

500
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 1: Give me the best fit? How do you see him

501
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: projecting into that? I mean, he he is the most

502
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: complete back in this draft. He's the only one that's

503
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: probably going to be drafted in the first round. He

504
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: can do everything. He can run with power, he's shifty,

505
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: he has lateral agility, he has suddenness, he can pass protect,

506
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: he can catch like he he is the complete package,

507
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: I mean, best fit. Let's be real. We want him

508
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 1: to go to Dallas. We want him behind again. We

509
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: I know we talked about that, there's a committee there.

510
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: If he he's the committee, and we want him to

511
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: go there because he that way, he gets put up

512
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: with a good quarterback and a good wide receiver and

513
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: a good passing game. We don't want him to go

514
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: somewhere where it's all on Zeke. Not to say he

515
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: can't do it. I mean, Todd Gurley just did it.

516
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: But if we're talking a dream landing spot, we don't

517
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: want him to go to Philadelphia, where he's being projected,

518
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: where he's in a real committee. If they draft him,

519
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: they're not gonna may probably probably yeah, they probably get

520
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: rid of run Matthews. But I mean, I guess I'm confused.

521
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: Why is Ryan Matthews uh so much markedly better than

522
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 1: a guy who just got four yards last year and

523
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 1: then they just signed a guy in the off season

524
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: and Alfred Morris in the Cowboy. It's like ze over

525
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: No no, yeah, well what no, No, what I'm saying

526
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: like the comedian Dallas versus the committee in Philadelphia, I

527
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: think both of them are not great. Landing Ryan Matthews

528
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: is better than Darren McFadden. It's the Darren McFadden Alfred

529
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: Moore's combination. No, yeah, that It's like saying I'm gonna

530
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: mix one percent milk and two percent milk, be delicious.

531
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: That gives you three percent milk. So like and I

532
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 1: don't know otherwise dream Landing spots Raiders too. I I

533
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: like Raiders would be a I don't think there's any

534
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 1: way he falls that far in the draft, But then

535
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: he would take over for Murray too, because they don't

536
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 1: seem sold on him. And then you got young quarterback,

537
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: young running back to I'll throw it out there Indianapolis.

538
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: Why not he cain't never make anything? Look look, look, look,

539
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: I said, he ain't never. That's like I get it.

540
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: I get it, Like he won't fall that far. But

541
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,479
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is that I wouldn't be surprised if

542
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: the Colts move up to go get him and pair

543
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 1: him with You're saying that they d Elliott and Andrew

544
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: Luck those guys together just uh, they could wreck shop

545
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: on That would be offensive, beautiful, But I don't think

546
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 1: you move they move up to get a running back

547
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: as far as well, wait where are they picking? I

548
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: forget they had a pretty terrible year. What about the Giants?

549
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: That's super interesting too. I wouldn't mind that, Beckham little,

550
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Um, let's move on. I mean, look,

551
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: everyone's so Zeke is going to be the earliest running

552
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: back taken pending falling to a disastrous situation, and he's

553
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: pretty much the presumptive one dot oh one in Dynasty

554
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: rookie drafts too. I would agree, Oh yeah, I would

555
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: agree as well. Um, depending on where he goes comfortable

556
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: range for Zeke Elliott. I mean he's probably going to

557
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,719
Speaker 1: climb up into that anywhere from two to four, like

558
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: you think he's that. I was gonna say more ran

559
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: round five, but I guess he's probably gonna be there

560
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: air climbed up into round three guys by the time

561
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: we started, right, But I mean, I just I do

562
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 1: wonder if memories of a Mirabdullah scare some people. These

563
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: are different, These are the different I was. I was

564
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: high on Abdula, but Josh Ferguson is this year is

565
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: a Mierabdullah. I hear that, like he's the guy who

566
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: will go out, he'll do something amazing in I was

567
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: gonna say spring training, he's gonna be the guy who

568
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: does something special in the preseason, and like, yeah, we

569
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 1: really love this guy. I'm about Derrick Henry. I mean

570
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: just gigantic. Yes. By the way, he came through the

571
00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: NFL media last week and he immediately Alex and I

572
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: just kind of like slacked each other as he is

573
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: a huge. He just kind of looked at each other

574
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: like a comedy when both our eyes go wide, and

575
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: then we were like hating on I am so like

576
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: they actually like talk like. But he looks like a

577
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: defensive end, like he is towering. He's six three to fifty. Yeah,

578
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: he's and every bit of that. He's six fifty d N.

579
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 1: I mean he is gigantic. I just I saw him

580
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: walk by and immediately thought, my god, could you imagine

581
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: trying to tackle this man? I think I would literally

582
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: explode into a cloud. Yeah, he's like the first guy

583
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: I've ever seen who would be who's like that where

584
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: you're like Nope, I would I would not get off

585
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: my block at all. It was him because I like

586
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 1: even like Trrelle Davis, who's here. I remember one of

587
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: our coworkers one. Ti'm going like, could you imagine trying

588
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: to tackle him? And like I go, if I would

589
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 1: have played football at Fullerton, I would have been playing

590
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: against him because he was at longbeah, I would have

591
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: done that. I could imagine trying to tackle lt. I

592
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: know i'd i'd hit air, but like I would have been, like,

593
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: I could take this like Derrick Henry in the open

594
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:08,719
Speaker 1: note and like think business decision. Um. Despite the size, man,

595
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: you look at the speed and athleticism too. It's insane.

596
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 1: He raised four five Are you kidding me? At that size?

597
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: A thirty seven inch vert at that size? Come on,

598
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: that's ridiculous, isn't that? Like? The hip thing to now

599
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: is that the Cowboys would pass on Ezekiel Elliott go

600
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: with the one of the defensive players. Be it? Uh? Everyone,

601
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: So many folks are second round, which seems to make

602
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 1: a lot of sense, I think. So, So here's some

603
00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: here's something fun about about Henry because while he is

604
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: he's super explosive, super fast. One thing he lacks is

605
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of lateral agility. That's not to say

606
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't have any because he's so huge, he's not

607
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: that elusive. But here's here's an example of how crazy

608
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: explosive he is. So he finished in the top five

609
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: in the combine and the vertical jump he finished fifth,

610
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: and the broad jump he finished second. Both of those

611
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: are good measures of explosion um and the power from

612
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: your legs. So he finished the top five in both,

613
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: weighing on average thirty three and a quarter pounds more

614
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: than the other top five finishers in the vert and

615
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: forty two and a quarter pounds more than the top

616
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: finishers in the broad jump. Yeah, it's insane. So he's

617
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna have his limitations. But if he goes to

618
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: the right situation like a Dallas in the second, or

619
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 1: even if Cleveland takes him in the second as a

620
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: replacement for Isaiah Crowel and does a total thunder and

621
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: lightning thing with him, the duke like he's gonna be.

622
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a big beast. He's not gonna have

623
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: maybe have as many eye popping highlight plays, but he'll

624
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: have some long runs and he's gonna get in the

625
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: end zone. Yeah, he's he's gonna be an end zone machine. Um.

626
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: Long term wise, the only thing I worry about, and

627
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: this is long term. I'm not talking about next season,

628
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: but I think just long term, uh, the fact that

629
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: he's not that elusive and that he actually looks for

630
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: he loves contact. Um that size. I mean, you're right,

631
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: a lot of dbs won't be wanting to make that tackle.

632
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: But I guarantee you there's a lot of linebackers and

633
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: a lot of d ns that are looking to square

634
00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: this dude up and make a name for them so

635
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: else because he is a big time name. And if

636
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: you're that linebacker and you want to make sports inner,

637
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: you want to you want to make that highlight reel

638
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 1: you're looking at pop right exactly. I didn't hope you

639
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:15,239
Speaker 1: don't hit him with a full head of steam. Linebackers. Um.

640
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: DeVante Booker out of Utah. I love this kid. I

641
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: think he can do everything. Um, you know, a nice

642
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: shifty guy, but you know he doesn't shy away from

643
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: contact either. I love the lecturn um, highly productive player

644
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: at Utah. Adam Rink, what's your thoughts on Devonte Booker?

645
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: Now I've really really excited about him. Yeah, I feel

646
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: again like everybody's always fantasy booking where the Cowboys are

647
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: gonna go for a running back, and I think that

648
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: he's somebody because he again he's also a good receiver

649
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, and he really um got his

650
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: stuff together over the last couple of years. I mean,

651
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: everybody remembers him being recruited at Washington State and being

652
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: excited about it. Then he disappeared to go work on

653
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 1: his academics, which makes him a little bit older. And

654
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: he's got that buddy type two that he started to

655
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: get injured a little bit at the end, obviously missed

656
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 1: the last couple of games for Utah. So you do,

657
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,040
Speaker 1: you do have a couple of concerns like that. But

658
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: I did think when I was looking at his game

659
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: and what he does is even though they've got again,

660
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: he would be going to a committee situation. But I

661
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 1: look at him going to a place like Baltimore where

662
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,640
Speaker 1: Mark Tressman loves to use his running backs out of

663
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: the backfield as receivers, that he could really flourish in

664
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 1: that type of system. I think he can be a

665
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: very productive NFL player, maybe even with a similar type

666
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: of traits that like Danny Woodhead has where you know

667
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,280
Speaker 1: he's that sneaky guy who's putting up quality Fantasy points

668
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: even though he might not be dominating the highlights on

669
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: Total Access. I got. I feel like, I mean, right now,

670
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: everybody says, you know, Zeke is the number one running

671
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,839
Speaker 1: back in this class, Derrick Henry probably number two. When

672
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: he gets the number three, I feel like it's a

673
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,720
Speaker 1: it's a coin flip between Devontae Booker and Kenneth Dixon,

674
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,399
Speaker 1: Jonathan Williams and c J. Pross. Probably it's a big mix.

675
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: It is a big because because I know, I don't

676
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 1: you know, gel Hard is a huge Kenneth Dixon fan.

677
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 1: I tend to side slightly toward Booker, but I feel

678
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: like they are guys who do some similar things, and

679
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 1: I think it's it's really is going to be a

680
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: toss up which one of those people like more and

681
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,439
Speaker 1: this I do think though that that next year, really

682
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: it does come down to Devonte Booker and Kenneth Dixon.

683
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: I know c J pros. A lot of people like

684
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: c J. Pross's underrated, but he's only had one year

685
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: as a running back. Um, you know, the game tape

686
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: is is is good, it's not great. Uh, And I

687
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: don't know. I think I think there's I think there's Uh,

688
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: it's there's a mixed bag of opinions on him, you know.

689
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: And so that's why I would say he's that one,

690
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,720
Speaker 1: just a touch below in terms of a tier group

691
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: below Booker. He is nice to because he's very adept

692
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 1: as a pass catcher and he's got some moves and stuff.

693
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: But you're right, he hasn't done it as long, which

694
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: when you look at somebody like Kenneth Dixon. He did

695
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: it for three years in Louisiana Tech. And as I

696
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: put in my right up which I just which just

697
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: came out to day on him for Prospect today, for

698
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,479
Speaker 1: a hot second, he was actually the all time leading

699
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,439
Speaker 1: touchdown score in the FBS history. It's ridiculous when he's done.

700
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: The Navy quarterback stole at once twenty eight touchdowns as

701
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 1: a freshman, had an injury, and as a junior had

702
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: another twenty eight touchdowns, and then as senior had twenty

703
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: six touchdowns. Really slacked as a scene. We saw a

704
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 1: drop off, guys, we saw a drop off. No, but

705
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 1: I've done as insane. Yeah, he's he's fantastic. And the

706
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: thing about him, and some people will knock him because

707
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 1: he's not as big, he doesn't have elite long speed.

708
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: I think he ran like a fot um and then

709
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: you watch him. Some people were like, oh, woke he

710
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: played in comfort, USA, like when he played against Alabama

711
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: and I forget what other big program he hit. Um,

712
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 1: he couldn't do that well that stuff. But I watched

713
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: those games and that was more on the discrepancy of

714
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,720
Speaker 1: talent between an Alabama and Louisiana Tech than just Kenneth Dixon,

715
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: because poor guy would get the ball in the backfield

716
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: and have three Alabama defenders just playing rock paper sis,

717
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: who's gonna crush him? As long as he doesn't go

718
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: to Cleveland, he's going to be on an NFL caliber team,

719
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 1: which means he's gonna have those guys blocking form. Now

720
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 1: that's that's a huge thing. I know because um, because

721
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: Ladanian Tomlinson got kind of that rap too, because he

722
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: was coming out of the word they're away like, oh

723
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 1: like small school like even Marshall fault. They're fine, but sorry, no,

724
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: they're just not surrounded. Our offensive line is not NFL.

725
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,399
Speaker 1: And the thing is too. Like if he came out

726
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: with average production from the whack and conference, say, exactly

727
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: dominated those fools. And he's got such great balance and

728
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: foot quickness and he can set up his cuts that

729
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: I think he could come into the He could come

730
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: into the NFL right away as a complimentary piece, like

731
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 1: like a Geo Bernard, but he could. He has the

732
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: talent and the ability, and he's actually bulked up. He

733
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: gained seven pounds of muscle from combined to his pro day.

734
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: He wants to be a featured back. I mean, I

735
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 1: think it's interestly that you say GIOE. Bernard because when

736
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: I watched him, that's kind of the guy that player

737
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 1: I thought, that's not a bad thing. I'm not knocking

738
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: to at all, but I think that is kind of

739
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 1: who he projects to be at the next level. But

740
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: that's why I love him is hopefully he falls in

741
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: a good offense that's ready to use his skills, because

742
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: I think definitely he's a late round guy who could,

743
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,760
Speaker 1: like even if as a complementary piece like ju Bernard

744
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: was basically an RB two like fringe RB three, like

745
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: a good flex player last year like Dixon, in the

746
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: right offense, could be that kind of guy this year.

747
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: It really depends on what teams they go to, it is.

748
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: So that's why that's why this is all speculed right now.

749
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: And I saw somebody when you're tweet now in prospects

750
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: of a day like chirped at the Fantasy handle, like,

751
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: how do you can you project into this if you

752
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 1: don't know what their team they're at. One's like, well, look,

753
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: there's a whole thing where we're looking evaluating their skill set,

754
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: so you better know when they land with said team

755
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: what to expect, right, what do you want us to

756
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: do start doing the research as soon as they land

757
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 1: with No, It's like no, you gotta look at these

758
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 1: guys ahead of time, right and figure out. And when

759
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: the draft comes, it's like boom, just immediate takes, you

760
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's like, hey, this is a

761
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: great fit. It's not a great fit. I see him

762
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: doing this. I don't see him doing this. But you

763
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: mentioned five, ten to fifteen combined. He's twenty two. See

764
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: that's amazing. So he bulked up, didn't lose any of

765
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: his speed, He still got his quick So he's he

766
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: wants he's trying to prove to them he's like, give

767
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: me the ball. His lateral quickness, man, he's got some highlights.

768
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: He has got some jump cuts. Man. If you go

769
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 1: to to the to the piece I put out today,

770
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 1: you can find it on NFL dot com slaghe fantasy

771
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: or prospect. Today I linked to a great post from

772
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 1: rich Rebar at the at the Fake Fake Football who

773
00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: wrote this up. But he put in a bunch of

774
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 1: gifts of like some of these amazing cuts that Kenneth

775
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: Dixon has done. You just watch it and you like

776
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: have to fan yourself off because these are these are impressive. Uh.

777
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: If he goes to his zone blocking scheme type type

778
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 1: of team, he can kill. He can absolutely kill. He's

779
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: got unbelievable cuts. As ALC Hill Harris mentioned, uh C

780
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: J process, can we take into him a little bit more.

781
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: I know he's a big time name because he came

782
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: from a big time program and Notre Dame. Uh. He

783
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: was actually recruited as a safety to Notre Dame, then

784
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: played wide receiver and then for one year decided to

785
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: give running back to try and and was pretty good

786
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: there as well. Uh. He enters the draft is an

787
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: interesting process because he's got a lot to learn, but man,

788
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:08,280
Speaker 1: the skill sets is very interesting. Look, he's a converted

789
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: wide receiver, so obviously he knows how to catch the

790
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: ball out of the backfield. He's got great size, He's

791
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,399
Speaker 1: six ft to twenty, which makes his transition it's running back.

792
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: It makes a lot of sense. So I don't know,

793
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 1: I get why people are are are high on him.

794
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: But then at the same time, it's not a video game, right,

795
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: you just can't prop this guy into it. I mean

796
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: a lot of these things, especially when you're watching players,

797
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: is how instinctual are they do they do they see

798
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 1: the field? Do they know the way the player is

799
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 1: supposed to develop? Can they let things? You know? I

800
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: I you want to a running back who knows like, Okay,

801
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 1: this is gonna take a little bit of time to

802
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:45,320
Speaker 1: develop and I'm gonna gonna hit this hole and stuff

803
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: like that. You can't just get that in one year.

804
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: And even though he's a great talent and he played

805
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 1: at a high end university, you just can't expect him

806
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: to go out there and immediately put up huge fantasy

807
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: or do anything like that. He's such an interesting guy

808
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,840
Speaker 1: because he has the size of that first down, second

809
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: down guy, but his skill set is more of a

810
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 1: third down guy. That's why he's so interesting. Franchise wrote

811
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 1: up a great profile on him for Prospect Today and

812
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: talked about how versatily is and the thing is, like

813
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,240
Speaker 1: with he's I like his versatility. That he's played safety

814
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 1: and played wide receiver. That shows he's also a smart player.

815
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: And once he gets more comfortable and like you said,

816
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 1: rank instinctual, and that was one of Franchise knocks, it

817
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: needs to be more decisive. I think he could be

818
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 1: really dynamic. And let's not forget like if the player

819
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: is smart and they're as athletically gifted to play multiple positions,

820
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,439
Speaker 1: a limited ability are limited like time frame in college

821
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 1: one position, isn't that damning? Anthony Barr only played one

822
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,879
Speaker 1: year at linebacker U C l A and now he's

823
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 1: arguably one of the best young defensive players in the

824
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: league playing linebacker for Minnesota. I mean the transition from

825
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: you know, d N to like linebacker but running back, well, no, no,

826
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: but he also played d N. That was what I'm saying,

827
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 1: you know, so like, no, you're right, it's he's a

828
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: great athlete. It's just c J. It's so interesting. But

829
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: mostly like those guys go from offensive positions to defensive

830
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,760
Speaker 1: positions and flourish, Like, are there a lot? I guess?

831
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 1: I guess. You know what else I always think about.

832
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: I always think about basketball players who just go and

833
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: decided to play. I just want to play tight end.

834
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:14,439
Speaker 1: I mean it's like it's not even like they get

835
00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: any kind of time under their belt. They're just like, yeah,

836
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: let's just get out there, just run it out there,

837
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: let's let's just see what happened. And I I think I

838
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,280
Speaker 1: think of the prosis is just just watching the tape.

839
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: I mean, just watching him gives you this feeling that, yeah,

840
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,920
Speaker 1: this guy can make this change, you can make this leave.

841
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: Let's speak to a couple more of these markets. Let's

842
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: double down on the Arkansas Backs. You watched Jonathan Williams,

843
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: I've watched Alex Collins. What did you see in Jonathan Williams.

844
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 1: You're a big fan, right I did. I have a

845
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: big fan of him, and I know that he kind

846
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 1: of got overlook he pretty much missed the year with injury.

847
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,600
Speaker 1: You know, so he it's been you have to go

848
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 1: back I think fourteen to actually watch him play. Um,

849
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 1: but I mean, the guy would just great feet You

850
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: know he's he's the guy who is he gonna He's

851
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: not gonna dance around a whole lot. He's gonna get

852
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: up feel really really quickly. You know. I think he's

853
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 1: got toughness. I think he has a lot of things

854
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 1: going for him. And you know, Arkansas has has had

855
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 1: a program that has really featured running backs over the years.

856
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 1: I mean, I go back to the days of you know,

857
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: Darren McFadden and uh, you know what who they have done.

858
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,279
Speaker 1: That's somebody else with mcfaden. I can't remember who it

859
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: is now I'm blanking out. But either way, I like Jones.

860
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: I want to say Julius Jones, and I knew that

861
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: wasn't right. Um. I mean, I think I think this

862
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 1: is a guy who he's obviously not going to come

863
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:25,879
Speaker 1: in and be a feature back. And I think once

864
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: you get past you know, Derrick Henry on this list,

865
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: there aren't a lot of guys who are going to

866
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 1: come in and be featured bats right away. But he's

867
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: a guy who could come in and be a nice

868
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: pass catcher, be a good change of pace back. I

869
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: think the big cast, the big question for him is

870
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: can he stay healthy because obviously missing a full season,

871
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 1: especially with a foot injury, is something a lot of

872
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: people are gonna be keeping an eye on, all right.

873
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: Alex Gillhart talking about Alex Collins. Alex Collins is interesting

874
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:49,839
Speaker 1: because he had a lot of pop plays, but then

875
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 1: he tested atrociously at the combine, like bad forty time,

876
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: bad agility and stuff. And I think the thing with

877
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: him though, is that it's one of these interesting ones

878
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: where you kind of have to uperate the tape from

879
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 1: the measurables a little bit, because like, nothing he does

880
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: on tape would indicate that he is that special of

881
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,800
Speaker 1: an athlete. But he is a good player. He shows

882
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: good vision, he's got good balance, he's got some good power,

883
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 1: he's got decent speed. So like he's a kind of

884
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 1: guy like maybe that's more of like a Alfred Morris

885
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 1: type where if he gets into the right the right scheme,

886
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:19,959
Speaker 1: in the right system and he gets the ball a lot,

887
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: he could definitely be a fantasy ascid, but he might

888
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: be pigeonholed as more of a later round back up

889
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: to start in his career. So he's a guy that's

890
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 1: like a late round dynasty pick. But unless he falls

891
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 1: in a great situation, I don't know if I'm gonna

892
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,400
Speaker 1: be buying a ton of Alex Collins yet in re

893
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: draft leagues. To your point, his measurables five ten to fifteen. Uh,

894
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: he ran a where did you run a four or

895
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: five ninety and just a forty and a half inch vert?

896
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 1: That's that's no bueno. And for that size, a four

897
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,799
Speaker 1: or five nine is not great either, Uh, I mean

898
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 1: pushing for six that's uh not great. Um, you were

899
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: mentioning Josh Ferguson a bit. Give us your take on

900
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 1: Josh Ferguson, Adam right. You know, i' really liked him

901
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: when you're out here on the West Coast at nine am,

902
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,359
Speaker 1: when you guys should be watching mad and NFL Live

903
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:10,720
Speaker 1: on Saturday. But after that Illinois this year they weren't

904
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,879
Speaker 1: on as much, but they're always one of those nine

905
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 1: am games, and Josh Boxon was somebody I I don't

906
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 1: think that Illinois was surrounding him with a lot of talent,

907
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 1: but he was one guy who always just kind of

908
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 1: stood out. He he just has a fun way about him,

909
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 1: you know, and there's just certain players that you like

910
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 1: to watch and what he brings and just making these

911
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: just mundane plays and just stretching him into stuff that

912
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: you didn't think it was gonna be there. Part of that, though,

913
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: could be a problem because he does try to hit

914
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: the home run like every time, and he's he's out there,

915
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: he's playing Matt and he's one of those guys. Now

916
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 1: he's running backwards. You're like, oh my god. I think

917
00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 1: it was. I think they were playing in the Heart

918
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: of Texas Bowl a couple of years ago and there

919
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:52,920
Speaker 1: was a broken play. I think it was one of

920
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:54,440
Speaker 1: those things he was supposed to throw the ball and

921
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,720
Speaker 1: a collapse and he just did the super tech Mobowl

922
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,040
Speaker 1: bo Jackson where he's running all over the play and

923
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: somehow gets a game. And that's one of the things

924
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,480
Speaker 1: like at some point you just want your running back

925
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: to be like, Okay, this is how much I've gotten.

926
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 1: I've got a eight yards, I'm going down or I'm

927
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,880
Speaker 1: going out of bounds or anything like that. So he

928
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 1: does have some ability. The one thing that's the most

929
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: glaring is that he fumbles the ball way too much.

930
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: If we learned anything from a mirror Duela over the

931
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,920
Speaker 1: last season, it's that if anybody puts the rock on

932
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: the ground, you're not playing I mean it's any he

933
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 1: compares two guys like a mirab Duel or Ronnie Hillman,

934
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: guys who have had trouble with fumbles and pretty much

935
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 1: had it ruined their fantasy careers. I mean, they're still

936
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: getting paid. But whatever, he's exciting. UM. I don't think

937
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,439
Speaker 1: he'll be as hyped as a mirror, but he will

938
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:48,240
Speaker 1: start getting into that David cop type situation where people like, hey,

939
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,960
Speaker 1: like late in drafts, You'll be like Adam and see

940
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 1: what happens, and then we won't hear from him, and

941
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:56,919
Speaker 1: then a couple of years from now he'll do something special. Well,

942
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:58,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just know there's a guy on

943
00:46:58,760 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 1: this list that you guys knew what I was going

944
00:46:59,960 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: to talk about, Daniel Alaska out of cal um There

945
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: was nobody more surprised by his combined results than I was,

946
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,320
Speaker 1: because quite honestly, you know, I've watched him play his

947
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: entire career there, and occasionally he would have those explosive plays,

948
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 1: but I didn't see four four six. He was a

949
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: combined hero. He was unbelieved forty one and a half

950
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,839
Speaker 1: inch vertical. He was a hero at the co He

951
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: was ridiculous at the combine. Um, And I didn't see

952
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: that athleticism at all. I shouldn't say at all, but

953
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 1: very few plays did I see that level. It's hard

954
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 1: to show when you're running that bear raid offense there

955
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: and letting Jared sling it, you know, fifty times a game.

956
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: But I mean even in in you know, running out

957
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: of the shotgun is tough. I I get that, But

958
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 1: even when he would get the ball in open space, UM,

959
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 1: I wasn't blown away by Daniel Lasko. So it's interesting

960
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 1: to me because the size and speed combination that Daniel

961
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 1: Lasco has would tell you this guy could be a

962
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: very good NFL player. Unfortunately, I've seen a play way

963
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 1: too much to think that, so I don't know. It'll

964
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 1: be interesting to see where he got right. Let me

965
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: ask you a question, have you This is what a

966
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 1: lot of people say a lot of scouts and things

967
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: I've listened to on podcast this time of year, like

968
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 1: Josh Norris has said it, and I think uh DJ

969
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,239
Speaker 1: as well from our own offices has said lots of

970
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 1: times the combine. People use it to confirm what they've

971
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 1: seen on tape and if something surprised you, the combine

972
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: you gotta go back. Then you go back and watch

973
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: so have since the combine? Have you gone back and

974
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,280
Speaker 1: like re examined it in a in a new lighter,

975
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: like taken off the you know, the cal Homer cap

976
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:36,839
Speaker 1: for a minute, and uh, just just watching him. I'm

977
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 1: just I'm totally curious. Um, I've I've watched. I wouldn't

978
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: say I've gone back and have done a full tape

979
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 1: mock up, because again, when you've seen that much of

980
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 1: Daniel Lasco, and again I've seen so many of these

981
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 1: cow games, it's like, how much do I need to

982
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: go back? I guess is what I'm saying. He had

983
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: a very injury riddled senior season, so you know I

984
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 1: did have to go back to his junior plays. But

985
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 1: and and you know again that's where he showed a

986
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,839
Speaker 1: lot of explosiveness. But the only time he showed it.

987
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a one year wonder. He should have

988
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 1: less act. Why don't you go back to school? In

989
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 1: your point to go to college and go get a job?

990
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:16,360
Speaker 1: It is go like leave, especially running backs. I never quarterbacks.

991
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 1: I get it, like, hey, stay, you might want to

992
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 1: learn a little bit and to help your game, But

993
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 1: running backs, like dude, your window is short, right, go

994
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:24,359
Speaker 1: make that money. I agree with you. Um, so yeah,

995
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if I was telling Colin Kaepernick to

996
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:32,720
Speaker 1: take you know, cut out. It's tough. So yeah, Daniel

997
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,200
Speaker 1: Lasco is gonna go in later rounds. Um, it'll be

998
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: interesting to see what the fit is and then of

999
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 1: course you know, I'll be keeping a close eye on

1000
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 1: them during the during the preseason. But he'll be fun

1001
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: on space because he's gonna i mean, if he is

1002
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: testing this well through the combine measurable, so he's gonna

1003
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: be great on special teams, which means he'll stick around

1004
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: for a while. He'll be in that helps No One

1005
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 1: All Stars. That's about it, okay, and real quick. Jordan

1006
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 1: Howard just the last one to hit police. The opinions

1007
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 1: vary on him because some are some are quite high.

1008
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: I think um Our on Lancerline had him as like

1009
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:03,759
Speaker 1: his third rated running back for this draft class. Others haven't.

1010
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 1: Yeah he's Yeah, he's again these Big ten guys, they're

1011
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: on TV. It's so weird that their Big ten is

1012
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: on TV so much on the West Coast. But yeah,

1013
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: he's another guy that you would just watch. I haven't

1014
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: really gone back and looked at his film or anything extensively.

1015
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:20,720
Speaker 1: I just know in the games that I was watching

1016
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: of his I was pretty impressed, but it was he's

1017
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:25,879
Speaker 1: a guy that always gets solid yardage. He never has

1018
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:27,719
Speaker 1: a ton of those highlight players that he doesn't have

1019
00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: a great longspeed, doesn't have a ton of agility. But

1020
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 1: like if you want a running back that's gonna get

1021
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 1: you three to seven yards to carry, like guarantee when essential,

1022
00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 1: like college running back. Yeah, this is fun. That's why

1023
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see see where he goes

1024
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:42,880
Speaker 1: and how somebody somebody uses him. Because but one thing

1025
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: a lot of scouts like is he started at the

1026
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,799
Speaker 1: University of Albam Birmingham and was dominating there, then won

1027
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: the program closed its doors. He made the jump to

1028
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 1: a Power five conference and played even better with Indiana

1029
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 1: against good defenses in Michigan State and and uh Ohio State.

1030
00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 1: So he's he's an interesting guy. One I'm not super

1031
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: are in love with, But in the right situation, I

1032
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:03,799
Speaker 1: could see maybe throwing a dart atom in the light rounds.

1033
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,799
Speaker 1: All Right, there you go. I think anyone, I think

1034
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:09,959
Speaker 1: anywhere that Indianapolis goes, I'll be very interested. I put

1035
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: Kenneth Dixon as an option for Indie. If they can

1036
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,520
Speaker 1: take him there in round two or something. Yeah, if

1037
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,279
Speaker 1: they If they do that, I love it. First first

1038
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 1: year he spells Frank Gore a little bit, gets in

1039
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 1: on third down, learns from the wily old fete, and

1040
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:26,399
Speaker 1: then next year let's go what else would you call

1041
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: Frank Gore? I don't know? Yeah? What is this calcified? How?

1042
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:34,760
Speaker 1: How does he do it? I don't know? Like juice?

1043
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: Not like bad juice? Like does he like? Yeah? There is?

1044
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 1: He eat a lot of blueberries. Those are good for you,

1045
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: you know it's good, mushrooms, the antioxidants, who knows antioxidants,

1046
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 1: cryogenic sleep, Maybe it's right. I do love it. Let's

1047
00:51:51,600 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 1: get the Daily Death to get do it depth, daily

00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 1: not keep this kind of stuff? You have a journal

1051

Speaker 1: you did see Shane McMahon take that jump, and it's

1060
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 1: it's pretty cool, like that was the whole thing. I thought.

1061
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: The he's made a career of that. Yeah, you know

1062
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 1: what for somebody who is worth a lot of money,

1063
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 1: who doesn't have to take those kind of risks. You're

1064
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 1: you're the son of the owner, you don't have to

1065
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 1: do this. But he always wants to go out and

1066
00:52:57,400 --> 00:52:59,319
Speaker 1: prove that he's one of the boys. Went out and

1067
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 1: did it. WrestleMania wasn't bad. It exceeded my low expectations.

1068
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,800
Speaker 1: So that was good. N x T Takeover in Dallas

1069
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 1: on Friday Night was the goods. That's a real wrestling show.

1070
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 1: It's it's hips three now to talk about it, but

1071
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,919
Speaker 1: it literally is. And it's so funny because I knew

1072
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 1: somebody who was going out and I'm like, hey, I go,

1073
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 1: You're I go? When you flying out? Oh Friday, I'm like,

Speaker 1: are you gonna get there in time for n x

1075
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 1: T Takeovers like go into that and I'm like, okay,

1076
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:26,759
Speaker 1: shut up, you shouldn't. If you're going you don't want

1077
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: to go to n XC Takeover, are you gonna adapt

1078
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: the Zane uh Nakamura fight too? That was incredible. That

1079
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:35,759
Speaker 1: an awesome man. That was incredible. I don't want to

1080
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,120
Speaker 1: get to granular with with people, but if you yeah,

1081
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 1: if you're a fan, obviously that was incredible. Not only that,

1082
00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: but Sammy Zane had a Match of the Year on

1083
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 1: Friday and then went out Sunday and was a part

1084
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:49,800
Speaker 1: of the ladder match where he's hitting all his signature

1085
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 1: spots and if you've never seen his signature spots, he

1086
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: runs from the floor, dives through the ropes to the

1087
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,239
Speaker 1: other side, and d d through a ladder, dove through

1088
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,840
Speaker 1: a ladder. It's insane. He is so good. It was impressive.

1089
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah it go watch him because he's going to be

1090
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: a star for a long long time. Of the w

1091
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 1: W e U further depths did Jay Wright. I loved

1092
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 1: his celebration or his lack there, Oh my gosh, he

1093
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:17,439
Speaker 1: was embarrassed. That was so great, walking away just like, yeah,

1094
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 1: I guess that happened, and went out everybody else was

1095
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,920
Speaker 1: going eight PCs around him. But that was pretty cool.

1096
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: So I enjoyed that. Depths to Guns and Roses. I

1097
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 1: think it's great. I've been a little bit um uh

1098
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 1: ambivalent to it. I I personally I'm waiting for the

1099
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:35,319
Speaker 1: reunion with Buckethead and Robin Fink. That to me is

1100
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: the classic guns and Roses lineup. And you know what,

1101
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,560
Speaker 1: I saw them on New Year's Eve and I think

1102
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:43,239
Speaker 1: it was probably like that was great New Year's There

1103
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 1: you go, that was my Todd Gurley New Year's Eve.

1104
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 1: I appreciate that tangent because he paid it off at

1105
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 1: the end. That's great. So what it's really cool. They

1106
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 1: went on. They were scheduled to go on at eleven.

1107
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 1: They went on midnight, So for Actel, that's like four

1108
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:02,399
Speaker 1: hours early. Congratulations, good he's learning. Um there, I don't

1109
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: now rank. They gotta get out. They gotta get out

1110
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 1: a little earlier right now. But they look at Axel

1111
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: lost a lot of weight. He looks like he's taken

1112
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: this seriously. So that's great. I don't know whether to

1113
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,200
Speaker 1: dap Jim nance or not, but did you guys know

1114
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 1: that he gives a tie. He that's I didn't know that.

1115
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:20,279
Speaker 1: I didn't know. That's what this morning me too. I

1116
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,319
Speaker 1: I just learned to this morning tie to one of

1117
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:25,359
Speaker 1: the seniors on the winning team. Yes, oh that's awesome. Yes,

1118
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:28,960
Speaker 1: I think so. It's a kind of like it's so

1119
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,720
Speaker 1: self serving, like, hey, you just want an important basketball.

1120
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 1: Let me make myself a part of the conversation, a

1121
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 1: conversation we haven't heard until now. And Nance has been

1122
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 1: doing the title game for how long. I feel like

1123
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 1: if I was the first guy to get when, I'd

1124
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 1: be like, what what are you doing? What are you doing?

1125
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: And listen, nobody enjoyed him on How I Met your

1126
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: Mother more than I did. That was a great episode.

1127
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 1: But it's I don't know. I haven't made a decision

1128
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 1: on whether that's great or I'm gonna say it's not.

1129
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 1: And let me tell you why, because when you do that,

1130
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 1: you are backhanded saying I am super important. So when

1131
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 1: I give you this tie, you should be honored. It's

1132
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 1: a cool memento, you know what is it. It's a

1133
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 1: cool memento if somebody asked for it and you give

1134
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 1: it to them. But if you give it to them

1135
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:14,919
Speaker 1: because Jim Nancy just wants to give it to you.

1136
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 1: That kind of seems like being at Guns and Roses

1137
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:21,920
Speaker 1: and Slash throwing you his pick and being like, no,

1138
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 1: it's paid money. It's like, hey, homage to these guys.

1139
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,960
Speaker 1: They give you a little momento. That's awesome. If Slash

1140
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,880
Speaker 1: showed up at the championship game and handed him a pick,

1141
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:40,879
Speaker 1: that's what That's what it would be like. He needs

1142
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:42,400
Speaker 1: to start doing that, you know what. I want to

1143
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: do that. But from now, in honor of that, I

1144
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: think every time I watched the Pro Bowl, whoever inspires

1145
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 1: me the most, I'm gonna go to the Thai bar

1146
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: send them a really enjoyed you in the Pro Bowl.

1147
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,200
Speaker 1: Here you go. Congratulations by the way, and if anybody

1148
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:01,279
Speaker 1: is a huge fan of the NFL Fantasy Life, you

1149
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,719
Speaker 1: will no doubt want to pour one out today for

1150
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 1: Eric Bowersfeld, who if you're you know, he was the

1151
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,360
Speaker 1: voice of Admiral Achbar he passed away. He was also

1152
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 1: um oh gosh, he was. He was one other character too.

1153
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 1: He was the voice of and I will think of

1154
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: it after the one daily dapping baseball Baseball's back. I know,

1155
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 1: I know we are a football company and we are

1156
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 1: doing a football podcast. But look, man, it's fun to

1157
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 1: do some other things every once in a while. And

1158
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,960
Speaker 1: Opening Day in baseball is a tradition. It's an America.

1159
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 1: It is part of American great that it's back daily

1160
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: DAPs to the Dodgers and Clayton Kershaw, who got off

1161
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 1: to a fantastic start holding comments, Adam Rank don't want

1162
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: to hear it. Um, Listen, I complimented him him. What

1163
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:52,080
Speaker 1: did I say you that he was the Peyton Manning

1164
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: of baseball? Because I did imply that it's a regular

1165
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 1: season game. Of course, Clayton Kershaw was on the inferior opponent,

1166
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 1: regular season game. That is Clayton Kershaw's wheelhouse. I don't

1167
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: think that there's anything wrong with that. That's part of

1168
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 1: his job. That's what hement um. But you know what

1169
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 1: anti DAPs anti adaps to the Dodgers, to Time Warner,

1170
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,080
Speaker 1: to major League Baseball, to the fact that here we

1171
00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 1: are in year three, ridiculous of this terrible TV deal.

1172
00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:21,400
Speaker 1: And you know, look, I get capitalism. Everybody wants to

1173
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 1: make a buck. But the fact that you are keeping

1174
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:30,320
Speaker 1: you're keeping the region. An audience won't get to enjoy

1175
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: Vince Scully's last season behind the microphone pathetic and I

1176
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: know that. I know that Vin is too humble to

1177
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: make himself a part of this. I understand that. But

1178
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,600
Speaker 1: for the rest of us, Yeah, this is a really

1179
00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 1: really big deal. And for the ownership group that took over. Uh,

1180
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 1: even if they win a handful of World Series in

1181
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: their time owning the team, this will be a large

1182
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,040
Speaker 1: part of their legacy. Hn Scully is part of the

1183
00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:53,880
Speaker 1: reason why I got into this business. Um. Yeah, it's

1184
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 1: also dick Enberg's last season, it is, which is kind

1185
00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 1: of It was cool yesterday. You know, they're down in

1186
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,520
Speaker 1: San Diego and Enberg has been doing DREN games for

1187
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: a year and it was very cool to see the

1188
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 1: two of them take a photo together on their final

1189
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 1: opening days. So Rank we had an assist from behind

1190
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: the glass was bib for tuna? Yeah, that's rather voice

1191
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: bib for tuna? Wow? Uh alright. The first thing I

1192
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: have to DAP is I found these uh in the

1193
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:20,720
Speaker 1: middle of last week. I don't know how I missed

1194
00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 1: the first one because it had thirty eight million views

1195
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 1: on YouTube, But did you watch these when I tweeted

1196
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 1: him out last week? They are from a Studio C

1197
00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 1: which is a sketch comedy group at b y U,

1198
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 1: and they've made these videos about a guy named Scott

1199
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 1: Sterling who was on their sports teams and only ever

1200
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 1: operates in the sports teams using his face accidentally. So

1201
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: the first one was it was a soccer match and

1202
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: he was the goalie in a shootout and every shot

1203
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:48,440
Speaker 1: he blocked with his face getting progressively more daisy, eventually

1204
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 1: where his teammates sent him up in a chair in

1205
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: goal and he still his face and then they the

1206
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: second one came out last week and he was on

1207
00:59:56,440 --> 01:00:01,400
Speaker 1: their volleyball team and continued to block and return shots

1208
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:04,720
Speaker 1: with his face and it it sounds so simple, but

1209
01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,640
Speaker 1: they execute it so magnificently that I was literally in

1210
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 1: tears crying so hard watching the volleyball one. Scott Stot

1211
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 1: Sterling Studio. See uh, they are amazing, hilarious. The the

1212
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 1: other thing I want to dap quick is uh. I

1213
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:20,600
Speaker 1: don't know if anybody has been watching Better Call Saul.

1214
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 1: Last night's episode on Monday had one of the best,

1215
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 1: just like it was one of the best visual episodes

1216
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 1: they've had of the season. They had a tracking shot

1217
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: in the beginning and the cold open, they had one

1218
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 1: very sneaky edit where they probably hit it in there

1219
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: with a white behind a guy, but it was legitimately

1220
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:39,960
Speaker 1: like a ten minute tracking shot that was just gorgeous,

1221
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,480
Speaker 1: and then the whole episode is beautifully shot. So it

1222
01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:44,720
Speaker 1: was great to see, Like I've really enjoyed Better Call Saul,

1223
01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:46,200
Speaker 1: but it was great to see one of those episodes

1224
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 1: kind of paying homage to Breaking Bad, which had such

1225
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,960
Speaker 1: a unique visual lens that had shot the shot the

1226
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: show through. So the depths to the to the crew

1227
01:00:53,280 --> 01:00:54,720
Speaker 1: of Better Call Saw, you guys have been crushing it

1228
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 1: all right, there you go. I'll give a quick daily

1229
01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:03,000
Speaker 1: depth to Squatty Potty. The We're dying in the office yesterday,

1230
01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: Uh watching Squatty Potty VIDs that on Sunday, twenty million views.

1231
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 1: Where have I been? People love? Oh? They do? Because

1232
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 1: the other thing about the Squatty Potty is that one

1233
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:18,760
Speaker 1: of our producer explain to people at home what they

1234
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 1: might not know about it. I don't even am. I

1235
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 1: allowed tool step stool to help you relieve your school.

1236
01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 1: So basically, the step stool sits underneath your your your porcelain, yeah,

1237
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:34,120
Speaker 1: your toilet, and you prop your feet up and the

1238
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 1: the when you prop your feet up, it creates an

1239
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 1: angle and that angle apparently is more conducive to going

1240
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 1: body and thus it's called the squatty potty. But the

1241
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:50,600
Speaker 1: Amazon review that we found for two, I mean I

1242
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 1: was just on the ground. It was unbelievable. So that

1243
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 1: squatty potty. I'll put this stuff on Twitter if you

01:01:55,800 --> 01:01:57,720
Speaker 1: listen to it, I'll throw it out there. And uh,

01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 1: if you want. Uh. Okay, so no, but really though

1248
01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: Batman versu Superman, I mean I don't get it. Uh.

1249
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:10,560
Speaker 1: First of all, daily DAPs with the people who hated it,

1250
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 1: because I went to an empty movie theater yesterday with

1251
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 1: my wife. I'm gonna go tonight and imagine it's going

1252
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 1: to be fairly empty. I mean it was empty. Literally

1253
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 1: it was me, my wife and the guy who cleans

1254
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 1: the floors for the movie theater were the only people

1255
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 1: in this in the big theater at the arc Light.

1256
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,200
Speaker 1: It was great. It was unbelievable. So daily DAPs of

1257
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,200
Speaker 1: those people like Alex Calhar who hated the movie and

1258
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 1: thus killed the box office. Uh, ticket sales for it,

1259
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 1: which is great. It's still made a boatload of money

1260
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 1: because everybody saw it opening weekend. It just had a

1261
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,200
Speaker 1: precipitous drop, that's all, which is what I predict. It's

1262
01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 1: still gonna make a ton of money. It's fine. I

1263
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 1: liked the movie. Again, I don't think it was. I mean,

1264
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 1: is it one of the greatest, you know, movies of

1265
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 1: all time. Now it's not like it's not like the

1266
01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: Heath Ledger Batman. No, I wasn't that. But I mean

1267
01:02:57,720 --> 01:02:59,400
Speaker 1: it was a good, fun movie. I liked it. I

1268
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,320
Speaker 1: mean I don't. It's like I gave it a solid

1269
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:07,120
Speaker 1: P plus. It's hard to have uh, constructive conversations because

1270
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 1: people have been so negative about it, like it's flawed.

1271
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: I mean, there's some things I would have and that's

1272
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 1: why we talked about it a little bit last week.

1273
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 1: But it's like it's still the thing is, here's what's

1274
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:20,200
Speaker 1: bothering me? Uh TD who does all the podcasts? Here

1275
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: Hiven one of his cronies. We're sitting there the other day,

1276
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:25,200
Speaker 1: I'm walking by and and and now I get it's

1277
01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 1: like I'm wearing a scarlet beat like I've I've been branded,

1278
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,240
Speaker 1: and they're like, who rank like that movie and they laugh,

1279
01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 1: and I'm like, listen, bro, I grew up being made

1280
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,120
Speaker 1: fun of for liking comic books, and you're not gonna

1281
01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 1: You're not gonna, You're not gonna hurt. I'm used to this, okay.

1282
01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:43,439
Speaker 1: And I think, like I think that it was a

1283
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:45,240
Speaker 1: solid movie. I thought it was really good. I saw

1284
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: Deadpool over this past weekend and a lot of people

1285
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 1: will compare, like, well, Deadpool. I'm like, it's two different

1286
01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:56,280
Speaker 1: type of movie. But the people like, well, they this

1287
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 1: is the way you do it. Comment I'm like, no,

1288
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,120
Speaker 1: that's the way you do that comic book movie. It's

1289
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,680
Speaker 1: the way you make it. Like Bruce Wayne is not

1290
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,920
Speaker 1: dead Bull. He's not a fun guy, right, And everybody

1291
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 1: was like, well, where's Batman. I'm like, the whole movie

1292
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:13,160
Speaker 1: is Batman versus Superman because Batman is a detective and

1293
01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 1: he's detecting things and it might not have been his

1294
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,600
Speaker 1: action pack maybe and it comes in at the end.

1295
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:21,120
Speaker 1: But I think, overall, I think it was a good movie.

1296
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 1: I thought overall, I liked it. I like that. And again,

1297
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 1: Zack Snyder is such a Dragon ball Z fan. It's

1298
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,000
Speaker 1: so clear. I don't know if he's ever addressed that.

1299
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,400
Speaker 1: But he's such a dragon ball Z so why don't

1300
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:32,880
Speaker 1: you just go want to make a dragon ball Z movie?

1301
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he really should. I'm in for that.

1302
01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 1: I'm that would be great. At Zach, please make a

1303
01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:44,920
Speaker 1: dragon ball Z movie. I like it. I don't know,

1304
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 1: man like I enjoyed that movie more than Guardians of

1305
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 1: the Galaxy. I haven't even seen this movie yet, but

1306
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: I can't imagine why guards Galaxy was one of those ones.

1307
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:56,880
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what am I missing? I thought I

1308
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: might have laughed as much in Batman Versus Superman, but

1309
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,680
Speaker 1: a reason? Come on, Guardians was camping there? They didn't like,

1310
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:05,840
Speaker 1: here's the thing, like, how does how did? How does

1311
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:08,240
Speaker 1: star Lord? How did? So they just have an endless

1312
01:05:08,280 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 1: supply of space? How does that thing work on that belt?

1313
01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:20,160
