1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: And now move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks. 2 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: What's up, everybody? Walcome to move the six? Presented by 3 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: Castro alleged DJ Bucky back with you, Buck? How you 4 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: doing man, man, I'm good coming up. A busy weekend, 5 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: lots of football stuff, a lot of trades, and uh, 6 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: I guess people trying to connect the dots when it 7 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: comes to where players are going to go based on 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: the action and activity that we saw at the end 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: of the week. I had a big pro day with 10 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson's protey on Friday, but it was quickly upstaged 11 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: by all the drama that ensued with the trades. He 12 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: had two trades there. Uh. The big one, the one 13 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: that sent shock waves was probably Miami getting out of 14 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: three San Francisco, coming all the way up from twelve 15 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,479 Speaker 1: um in pursuit of their quarterback to replace Jimmy Garoppolo. 16 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: And then shortly after that, uh, Miami ends up coming 17 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: back from twelve to six, swapping with Philadelphia for a 18 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: future one. So a lot of different layers to get 19 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: to on this, and so I don't even want to 20 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: tee up which way I want to I want to go. 21 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: I want to give you the floor, Buck, I want 22 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: to know, give me a reaction to your takeaways from 23 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 1: what took place with these two trades. I think what 24 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: we're seeing now more than ever, teams are aggressively willing 25 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: to move up the board UH to get the quarterback 26 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: that they feel can change the fortunes of the franchise. 27 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: We've seen it years on years on end. We saw 28 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills do it with Josh Allen. I mean, 29 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: we saw Patrick Mahomes the kN C Chiefs move up 30 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: to get him. I think when you're looking at the draft, 31 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 1: if you feel like they're handful of quarterbacks that can 32 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: take your team to the next level, I think you 33 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: do any and everything that you can do to put 34 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: yourself in that position. And obviously that's what the forty 35 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 1: Niners felt. They looked at the class, they feel like 36 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: there's one or two quarterbacks in the class that can 37 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: certainly help them get to the next level, and so 38 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: they wanted to put themselves in a position to grab 39 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: one of those quarterbacks. I think what's interesting is they 40 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: moved up to the third spot, So that means in 41 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: my mind that they have to be comfortable with maybe 42 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: four quarterbacks. I mean, I guess you could say five, 43 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: because you know Trevor Lawrence is going at one. Let's 44 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: just assume that you still don't really know what's going 45 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: to happen at two, and so when you're at three, 46 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: that means you have to have a conversation, Hey, are 47 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: we comfortable with whoever may be there, Zach Wilson, Treye, 48 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: Lance mac Jonals, whatever that looks like. Um and if 49 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 1: you are, then you can take that because you know 50 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: that either way you're going to get someone that you 51 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: can work with that can propel your team to greater heights. Yeah. Look, 52 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: if you're picking three, you need to love three players. 53 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: You're going to get one of those three guys. So 54 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: to me, you don't make a move like that unless 55 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: it's for a quarterback. So they clearly feel like there 56 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: are three quarterbacks in this draft that upgrade where they are, 57 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: and you know, you think back. I know the Jets 58 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: ended up doing the similar trade, right, they went from 59 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: six to three. Obviously, it travels far before that draft 60 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: because they were comfortable with who they would get there 61 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: with the third pick in that draft, which we had 62 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: all those first round quarterbacks. Um, So that to me 63 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: is the magic number. They have three quarterbacks. They were like, now, 64 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: I assume that Trevor and Zach are are two of them, 65 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: and and what's got got us so uh intrigued by 66 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: this whole process, is who's the third And we assume 67 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: it goes Chalk. We assume it's gonna go Trevor Lawrence one, 68 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson is going to go to the Jets, and 69 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: then that leaves them with their choice between three guys. 70 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 1: And initially, I know, based on upon grade, we would 71 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: have said between two guys between uh Trey Lance and 72 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: Justin Fields. But you've got the mac Jones situation. And 73 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: when I've talked to people that are very plugged in 74 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: and very trustworthy, they are adamant about the fact that 75 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 1: this is it's not done, but all signs pointing to 76 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: mac Jones and that being a Kyle Shanahan's selection because 77 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: you know, we say John Lynch's general manager, but Kyle 78 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: Shanahan has the juice, so he's going to get the 79 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: quarterback that he prefers in. That's so that's what you hear. Now, 80 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: I looked at it, you know, from my situation as 81 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: soon as the moves happened. I thought, okay, when he 82 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: said Jimmy garoppolos in our plans, which I don't even 83 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: know what you take from that. You know, at a 84 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: pro day when you know Steve White asked him about Garoppolo. 85 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what. You really can't say, you know 86 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: at that point in time, but he said, yeah, he's 87 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: still on our plans. So when you hear that, I'm like, oh, 88 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: it's Trey Lance. They're gonna sit Trey Lance for a 89 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: year behind Jimmy and then off they go. But then 90 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: that's not what comes back to me information wise. Now, 91 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: the interesting thing is when you talk to people, um 92 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: that don't need a quarterback, general managers in the league, evaluators, 93 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: they all are shocked when you when you talk about this, 94 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: like you traded all that to go up to get 95 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, and they don't see that as a clear 96 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: substantial upgrade over what you have in Jimmy Garoppolo. But 97 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: then you talk to other people, the other people that 98 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: know Kyle Shannon said like, no, this is what he 99 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: wants to do. And you've kind of referenced this as well. Buck, 100 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: I've heard you use the analogy. He wants to play. 101 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: Kyle wants to play quarterback, and he's gonna do it 102 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: from the sideline and he wants to stick out them 103 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: the field. And that's what he's gonna get. If he 104 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: goes with Mac Jones, he is going to get there. 105 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: But I want to find the quote because the guys 106 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: have sent this quote about, um, what Kyle Shanahan said 107 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: after facing Josh allen More last year and a more 108 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback, more options in that. Now, what you want 109 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: to do is basically, you want to look for elite trades. 110 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: You want to look for a guy that has more 111 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: than what the quarterbacks have. And so, um, I understand this, 112 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: and here here, here's what I worry about because like, 113 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: this is what we do. We have a month ago 114 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: before the drafts, and so we're going to speculate about why, Hey, 115 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: let's look back Matt Shop, Kirk Cousins. Those are the 116 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: guys that he had, Matt Ryan, Like, hey, he had 117 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: all of those guys and maybe he did wonderful things. 118 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. When we talk about the Shanahan tree, 119 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: you know who they want super bowls with Inlay and 120 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: Steve Young. So we can talk about like, hey, Man, 121 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: we can do it. But DJ, just because you can 122 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: do it doesn't mean you want to do it. Like 123 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: just because you can do it with maybe more of 124 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: an average quarterback, does that mean, Hey, I'm a trade 125 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: up significant draft capital to get what I would say 126 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: is just a quarterback who to me not exceptional in 127 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: terms of his traits. I mean, because if we can 128 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: do that, because remember Mat Shop was a three, he 129 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: was a third round quarterback. Kirk Cousins was a fourth 130 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: round quarterback. I know Matt Ryan was uh taking in 131 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: the first round with third overall, but it's different because 132 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: the Matt Ryan that he got was a Matt Ryan 133 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: that had already played in the league for some time. 134 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: And so to think that we're going to compare Mac 135 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: Jones to Matt Ryan when Matt Matt Jones has seventeen 136 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: starts and I hear people talking about, oh, he's the 137 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: most pro ready, What what did I miss? Like? What 138 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: did I miss about that? Because the system in Alabama 139 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: looks like a pro style system. He has seventeen stars, 140 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: he doesn't have elite physical traits. Yes, we can talk 141 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: about his i Q in his mind and processing, but 142 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: could say, man, he never got hit he's never seen 143 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: a muddy pocket. He's never had to deal with the 144 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: receivers who couldn't get open. And I know we can 145 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: go back and say the same thing about two a 146 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: ton of the Law and every other Alabama quarterback, but 147 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: there is something to be said for that. I just 148 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: think that if I'm going to draft in the top 149 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: five man, I want to draft the winner of the 150 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: beauty paget, the winner of Look, they have the trace, 151 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: they have everything, they have mobility, arm, talent and all 152 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: of that stuff. And look, I'll be the descent on 153 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: the singing opinion. This mac Jones isn't that guy for me. 154 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: So we'll just see how it plays out. But he's 155 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: not that. He's not that guy for me to be 156 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: a top five pick. Again, I said, there's lots of layers, 157 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: and so I'm I'm with you. I agree with you 158 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: one percent. I had it written down on the three 159 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowls that that Mike Shanahan had one, So I'm 160 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: I was already going there, book and then and then. 161 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: And that's why i'm you know, purposely, because we talk 162 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: all the time at Tech. When this went down, I 163 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: did not call you, I did not test you because 164 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to save it for right here so we 165 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: could get the real interaction. That's why I'm so fired 166 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: up about it. So not only are those the three 167 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: super Bowls, think about this, think about the two super 168 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: Bowls that Kyle lost, right, think about it. Think about 169 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: and I want you to think about two plays. Okay, 170 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: first one, let's go to the Falcons. You get some pressure, 171 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: You've got your in field goal range to win the game. 172 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan can't get away from it, takes a sack, 173 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: You're out of field goal range. Cost you a super Bowl. 174 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: All right, Now, that's one play, and maybe you want 175 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: to say, oh, that's to your over you're exaggerating. One 176 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: play doesn't win a game. I'm just giving you examples. 177 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: Let's go to the other one that he lost. You're 178 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: you're controlling the football game. Everybody knows the play, Patrick 179 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: Mahomes dancing around, retreating, retreating, retreating, finding Tyreek kill all 180 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: the way down the field, which showed incredible athleticism and 181 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: incredible arm strength. You lost two super Bowls, one because 182 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: a guy couldn't make plays outside of structure, and the 183 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: other one you lost because their quarterback could make plays 184 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: outside of structure. Now, look, you get to those Super Bowls, 185 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: you know how you get there. You have a dominant 186 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: old line, you have a dominant run game, you have 187 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: a dominant defense, and you're an elite play caller. So 188 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: when all those ducks are lined up in a row, 189 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: you're good man. It's a lot of a lot of 190 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: things got to go right for that to happen. DJ, 191 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: there are a lot of things they have to go right. 192 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: But let's let's take it even further, right, Let's let's 193 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: we're talking about layers. Let's let's peel back to onion 194 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: even more right, So let's just talk about the Shanahan tree, 195 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: and let's talk about all of the disciples. So we 196 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: have Mike Shanahan, we have Gary Kubiak, We didn have 197 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, Sean McVeigh, Matt Lafleur, and on and on 198 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: and on. Here's what I believe started the dominoes falling 199 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. All of the disciples looked at 200 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: Matt la Fleur having so much fun with Aaron Rodgers. 201 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is we could say, maybe the most talented 202 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: player to ever play in this system. And what did 203 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: he produce? A m VP caliber system. It looks so 204 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: easy for the Packers for the majority of the year. 205 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: So Sean McVeigh falls to the because he looks over 206 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: the sideline. He looks at Jared Golfman's life. Man, not 207 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: good enough. I don't have enough. Man, Look how much 208 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: fun my guy is over there having. Man, I need 209 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 1: to get somebody like that. You're going to tell me that. 210 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, even though the Niners have been whooping the Packers, 211 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 1: he still doesn't look over there with quarterback envy at 212 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: batt Lafleur and the play calls and the designs that 213 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: he can make with a more talented player, and he says, 214 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: you know what I want. I want to go and 215 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: get Mac Jones, a guy who can't move around like that. 216 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: But this is going to bring my playbook to life. 217 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: I just have a tough time believing that that is 218 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: what all of this was about. That this is about, Oh, 219 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: you know what, I just want to go and get 220 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: another quarterback who I can play a joystick with, who 221 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: can't enhance what we already do by design. I think 222 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: it has to be someone that is more mobile, that 223 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: is more dynamic and more explosive. And also people make 224 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: this argument about, hey, you know he had Kirk Cousins 225 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: and in Washington and this is it. You know who 226 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: else he had. He had Robert Griffith and Robert Gorillain 227 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: was the opposive rookie of the year despite the issue 228 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: that they may have had. He was offensive rookie of 229 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: the year on the cow Shanahan doing all that stuff. Plus, 230 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: you don't think that fact is in TV equation at all. 231 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: I just think it's very convenient. When we talked about 232 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: the net narrative, we talked about all those guys without 233 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: mentioning RG three. Okay, we use trucks and trailers, right, 234 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: We've used it forever. There's two types of quarterbacks. When 235 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: when we're saying two types of winning quarterbacks, there's the 236 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: trucks that pull, that have the ability to pull the 237 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: rest of their team behind him. Think of an Aaron Rodgers. 238 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: He makes everybody around you better. He can cover up 239 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: a lot of warts. He's the reason you're winning. Then 240 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: there's the trailer where when everything else is in place, 241 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: they can that team can kind of pull that trailer 242 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: along and we can still win. That's okay, Like Jared 243 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: Goff as a trailer like that's they want. They you know, 244 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: they went to a super Bowl with with a trailer. 245 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: Uh there with the rams the other way. I thought 246 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: about phrasing this buck instead of just trucks and trailers. 247 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 1: And to me, it is exactly what you mentioned. It 248 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: is the Rams looking across the sideline and saying, you 249 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: know what, there's a difference between acceptable and exceptional, and 250 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: we have acceptable. I don't want that anymore. I want that. 251 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: I want exceptional. And so when I look at it 252 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: with my eyes and I look at it with my 253 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: brain and I see this move up, everything tells me 254 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: whether which way you go, trade lance or justin fields. 255 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: And I could be on board with either one. Yeah, one. 256 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: But that's that's with my eyes, and that's with my brain. 257 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: But then there's my ears. And you talk to people 258 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: that are plugged in, that are dialed in that tell 259 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: you it is going to be mac Jones get ready. 260 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: It might not be finalized, but all signs are pointing 261 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: to this going in mac Jones direction. And that's so 262 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: that's what that's where I'm left with. And I'm trying 263 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: to trying to figure this whole thing out and how 264 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: that makes sense. And I just I keep coming back 265 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: to the fact, Well, he thinks, you look at the 266 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: success that Mac had at Alabama and you say phenomenal 267 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: old players. So he was able. I was able to 268 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 1: diagram it up, get matchups I want, and then I've 269 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: got guys that can win those matchups. So through the 270 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: play call, I'm gonna get my guy, your guy, and 271 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: then I just need him to think the same way 272 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: that I'm thinking so that he can find that matchup 273 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: and deliver an accurate football. And he said, well he 274 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: did that at Alabama. They had great skill players. We've 275 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: got George Kiddle, Deepo Samuel. We're gonna get the one 276 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 1: on ones we want. I'll get that by play design. 277 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: I just need him to execute it. Here's the problem 278 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: that works at Alabama. You know who doesn't play for Vanderbilt, 279 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey does like it's not always perfect, man Like 280 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: it just isn't. And I want somebody that when everything 281 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: on the paper doesn't line up right, you can make 282 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: me right. And and I'm not taking shots at Mac Jones. Like, 283 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: to me, if you're gonna cherry pick one team for 284 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 1: Mac Jones to go to, that would heighten what he 285 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: can do. It would be the forty nine. It would 286 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: be great for Mac if you went there, and I 287 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 1: think he would be successful to a degree, But in 288 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: terms of chasing the old prize to be able to 289 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: play at that level, I just feel like, if you 290 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 1: make that pick two years from now, you're gonna be 291 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: going what am I doing? I want a little more. 292 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: I think, what am I doing a little bit more? Okay, 293 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: because I don't I don't want to feel like, uh, 294 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: this is a beat up on Mac Jones session. I'll 295 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: go I have one more point about Mac Jones because 296 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: here here's what it comes down to. DJ. We talk 297 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: about the NFL being a quarterback driven league, and the 298 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: teams with the best quarterbacks are the teams that are 299 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: typically in the playoffs. So let's just think the easiest 300 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: path to the playoffs is winning your division. Where does 301 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: Mac Jones ranking this division? Russell Wilson fourth, Matthew Stafford 302 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: and Kyla Murray? When is that ever going to change? 303 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: Who is Mac Jones going to surpass in his first 304 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: two to three years in the NFC West, Like I'm 305 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: just saying, who is who is he going to snatch down? 306 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: And past? Are we going to wait until? But Matthew 307 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: Stafford retires and Russell Wilson has maybe traded away for 308 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: him to close the gap. I'm just trying to figure out, 309 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: like when we think you be logically, I just can't 310 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: in my mind, in my mind say you know what, 311 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: Matt Jones is the missing piece. However, that said, I 312 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: will say this and we all know it. Ego plays 313 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: a part of all of the decisions that are made 314 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: sometimes from a coaching standpoint, and if you are kind 315 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: of the dragon slayer as the play caller, you feel 316 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: like you can do it with anybody and everybody, right. 317 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: And we've heard the conversations coming out of San Francisco 318 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: and in fact where they may express some frustration with 319 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo and they're talking about Nick Mullins and C. J. 320 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: Bethard and all those things. But then at the end 321 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: of the day, Jimmy Roppolo had a far superior record 322 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: then those other guys when they had the opportunity to play. 323 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: And I have to know that the frustration that Kyle 324 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: Shanahan had at the end of the year when they 325 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: were playing with those other guys. When you go to 326 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: the gunfight and you have a butter knife. You have 327 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: to you have to grow tired of dealing with that. 328 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: So is he really going to swap out Jimmy Garoppolo 329 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: for another guy who I would say is Look, he's 330 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: not those guys, but he's in that that ramp. I 331 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: just don't he doesn't give you any options to make 332 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: your plays correct when you don't doubt the right play up. 333 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: I just don't know why I would pay a premium 334 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: for someone who's not going to make it better. Because 335 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: Andy Reid always has the luck you're knowing that, Hey, 336 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: if I mess up on a play called guess what 337 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: number fifteen, he can erase it and make us look great. 338 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if mac Jones has that ability to 339 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: make the play call it look great when it's off 340 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: the script. Yeah, and this is again I said, there's 341 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: a million layers this. I think you mentioned ARG three 342 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: minute ago. If you if you look at it, let's 343 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: let's try and be objective and let's let's take our 344 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: opinion out of it and try and look through their lens. 345 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: So and I try and figure it out, and I 346 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: still struggle with it. But I could say, Okay, you 347 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: mentioned ARG three RG three couldn't stay healthy and when 348 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: he couldn't stay healthy, they couldn't win. Jimmy Garoppolo can't 349 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: stay healthy when he's not on the field. You mentioned it, 350 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: they don't win, So durability could factor in there. But 351 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: then I say, okay, mac Jones stayed healthy for one 352 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 1: year behind arguably the best offensive line in football where 353 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: you don't get hit, and then got beat up to 354 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: the point where he couldn't play in the Senior Bowl game. 355 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: So I mean, like, I I just don't know if 356 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: I can say this guy started forty games in college 357 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: like durability is not a concern or you know that's 358 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: that's a major difference. And if you want to put 359 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: body type, but put back Jones next to Trey Lance 360 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,639 Speaker 1: and justin fields and tell me who you think is 361 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: gonna physically hold up. I just have a hard time 362 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: doing that. So let's spend it, because I don't want 363 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: this to be like fifty minutes of us dumping on 364 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: mac jonals. So if if we are to take it ejectively, 365 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: and let's just look at it, maybe through the lens 366 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 1: of Kyle Shanahan in terms of why mac Jones would 367 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: be the pick and why it's so important to have him. 368 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: I think what we have seen, um, we've seen on 369 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: numerous occasions that I mean, Kyle Shanahan has drawn up 370 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: great place. Guys are wide open, and each and every 371 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: week we see Jimmy Garoppolo. He either does and see 372 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: him or he misses him. And I think what he 373 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: would like is if you go all the way back. 374 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: And I do see this comparison between Mac Jones and 375 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. When the Falcons were rolling in year two 376 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: with Kyle Shanahan and Matt Ryan, they lift people up. 377 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: I mean they're busting the clock. Um from an offensive standpoint. 378 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: They got weapons on the outside the here Julio Jones 379 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 1: and Mohammed Sanu and those guys rolling and literally he 380 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: was playing the video game from the sideline, and for 381 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: the overwhelming majority year they're putting thirty burghers on everybody. 382 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: And so if he feels like, look we don't have 383 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 1: a dominant running game, I got Brandon now York and 384 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: Deebo Samuels on the outside. I got George Kittle, who's 385 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: always gonna be open and control the middle. This is 386 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: as similar in his mind to Alabama as it can be. 387 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna take you out of Alabama, Mac Jones, 388 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna PLoP you in and if you just listen 389 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: to me on the headset, I'm gonna make it where 390 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: you cannot feel, and the system is going to overwhelm 391 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: everybody else in DJ We have seen the system really 392 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: work with lesser players. It doesn't take long to look 393 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: around the league and look at how Kirk Cousins has success, 394 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: Baker may Folds has success, Jared Golf has has success, 395 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: and Jered Golf the success led all the way to 396 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. So maybe in his mind he's saying, 397 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: if I can just get someone to take us from 398 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: point A to point B, we're gonna win a bunch 399 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: of games and we're always going to be in the mix, 400 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,239 Speaker 1: regardless of what else is around the league. I know 401 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: that my system is going to put us in a 402 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: position to win a high number of games, and Mac 403 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: Jones would be the perfect joystick for me to play 404 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: the game through. Again, I don't argue that at all. 405 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: I think if you're gonna make a case for the 406 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: best fit for Mac Jones, that would be the fit. 407 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: And I can make a case that he's gonna he's 408 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: gonna have success in the system. Everybody has success in 409 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: the system. It's a very quarterback friendly system. But to me, 410 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: I just if I'm gonna make that bold of a move, 411 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: I just want, I just want. I want the player 412 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: to be able to make me right when I'm not right. 413 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: That's it. That That's what it comes down to to me. 414 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: And again, nothing, the decision is not made. We still 415 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: we're still a month away from the draft block and 416 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: have between now and then. It's just fascinating to me, 417 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: fascinating to follow it. Let's let's look at it from 418 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: the other team's standpoint here, Miami Dolphins. We put the 419 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins in our body shop literally the day before 420 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: this trade went down, and we did a trade with 421 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 1: the Dolphins, I believe going to nine, and they ended 422 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: up going to twelve, and but basically the saying they 423 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: ended up getting an extra one going going to twelve 424 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: and then they come back up to six. Um. But 425 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: it just made sense from what needs they have and 426 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: where they are and the value of the third pick 427 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 1: because of the quarterback class. If they were going to 428 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: stick with twa, there was no way on earth they 429 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: could have stuck at three and picked a different a 430 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: position player. You can't do that. If you're gonna take 431 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: somebody other than a quarterback, you cannot stay there at three. 432 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: And that answered itself right there, Yeah, to itself. And 433 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: now I think what's really compelling is DJ when you're 434 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: at six and the board is wide open, um. Look, 435 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: I think there's a scenario where cal Piss is gonna 436 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: be staring at them in the face like a blinking light. 437 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: And I know we can talk about all the other 438 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: past catchers and those things, but in my mind, cal 439 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: Piss rates higher than those guys. And when you think 440 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 1: about the combination that they potentially have with cow Pits, 441 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: Mikeasecki Um, they brought Will full Over, they still have 442 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: Vante Park Like you talk about a team that can 443 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: really come at you. And I know we've talked about 444 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: two A talking about Loia being the r PO master, 445 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: being able to get it out of his hands. I 446 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: just think that they have the opportunity to create something 447 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: that is dominant in the middle of the field in 448 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: the passing game, to make it easy for two of it, 449 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: and still have the ability to create all these mismatches 450 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: in those things because eventually I believe two is going 451 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: to be at his best when you empty the formation 452 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: out and let him play quick for the in basketball, 453 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: like literally fast break basketball, get the ball out of 454 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: his hands and do those things. And I think Kyle 455 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: Pitts is a piece that would be very, very helpful 456 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: to that process. Yeah, I couldn't turn him down. I 457 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: just couldn't do it. So I just updated my top fifty, 458 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: which you can find uh NFL dot com slash top fifty. 459 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: I believe is the is the U R l um 460 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 1: and we have talked about it previously. I ended up 461 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: moving him from three to two. And I love Jamar Chase. 462 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: To me, I have the exact same grade on both guys, 463 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: but I ended up putting Pits because I thought he 464 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: was a more unique player that does. You don't see 465 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: a Kyle Pits very often, so that to me, is 466 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: why I ended up putting him there. So if you're Miami, 467 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: really either one of those guys you come away with, 468 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: I think you're you're dancing, You're feeling great about things, 469 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: and I think there's a real chance we're gonna see 470 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: first four picks the quarterbacks. If you're Atlanta, you're either 471 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: taking a quarterback or you're getting out of there. Again. 472 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: It makes no sense for me to them for them 473 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: to stick and pick because you can go. I would 474 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: assume you'll have options at eight or nine with Carolina 475 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: or Denver, depending on what happens with Sam donald Um. 476 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: One of those teams would be interested in coming up. 477 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 1: You know, so a couple of things with the Falcons. 478 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: This is a really critical pick for the Falcons. And 479 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: I know people will say, oh, they redid Matt Ryan's deal, 480 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: so the CAB number makes it prohibited from them to 481 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: move off for him in the next two years. But 482 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: I would say this, DJ man, you would rue the 483 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: day that if you boy passed on one of those 484 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: talented quarterbacks at four to drop down and maybe just 485 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: taking I mean maybe a solid position player. I think 486 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: if you're arranged to get a guy who you believe 487 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: can be special, I think you have to have the 488 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: foresight to say, you know, we're gonna we're gonna pull 489 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: the trigger right now. And I know people say like, yeah, 490 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: but you may lose the value of taking a rookie 491 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 1: quarterback or the Rickie deal. But then I just point 492 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: back to I saw I work for the Kann City Chiefs. 493 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: If that guy is the right guy, if the right guy, 494 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: stand at you at four. I'm taking them, and I 495 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: know Matt Ryan will have another year. But if I 496 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to eventually upgrade the position, because we're 497 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: not talking about a yearly year league. We're talking about 498 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: the quarterback position being a decade, a decade long position. 499 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: But if you have an opportunity to get a franchise 500 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: guy for at least a decade, that got man is 501 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: a position and makes all the other pieces around in 502 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: the polls, it makes it easier to find. If I'm 503 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: the Falcons man, I would I would go slow on 504 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: moving off of the fourth pick just for a position player, 505 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: just to get more picks, because I don't know, I 506 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: know we say it every year, Hey, some other quarterbacks 507 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: will emerge. I just feel like this class is really 508 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: really special, and I'm not really trying to get out 509 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: and move off of a special player if I can 510 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: get him at four. Let me get your take on 511 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: this for me, and I have again. I just updated 512 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: my top fifty and I have Trey Lance at seven. 513 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 1: I mean, look, double double check on this. So I've 514 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: got you know, Lawrence one overall. I've got Zach Wilson 515 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,719 Speaker 1: number four overall. Who put on a show. We'll get 516 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 1: to that in a second. I've got Trey Lance number seven, 517 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: and I've got Justin Fields number eight. So the more 518 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,159 Speaker 1: that I continue to do on these quarterbacks buck, the 519 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: more I feel strongly there are four big time dudes 520 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: who are top ten type players in any draft for me, Yes, 521 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: top ten type players. I don't know. Maybe next year 522 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: we get some guys we never know. You can't predict 523 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: this far out what next year looks like. But I 524 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: know I'm here right now opportunities staring me in the 525 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 1: face to get a guy that could be my answer 526 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: for ten plus years. Even if Matt Ryan is my 527 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: guy for the next two years, I'm with you. I 528 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: couldn't turn that down. I don't know if I'm ever 529 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 1: gonna get a chance to pick a player like this 530 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: in the next five years, right I'm not doing it. 531 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,919 Speaker 1: And if I'm Arthur Smith and I'm thinking about how 532 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be on my team, I'm not expecting to 533 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: be back in the top five next year, like I'm 534 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: not expecting to being ranged to be in line to 535 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: get a quarterback. And I know you're saying, well, hey, 536 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: you get another first round pick to come back. But 537 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: I would like to control my own fate. I control 538 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: my own destiny, and so I can do it right now, 539 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: you talk about it, DJ, I sincerely, really Trevor Lawrence, 540 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, justin Field's trade lance and whatever order. I 541 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: think those guys are as good as it gets at 542 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: the quarterback position. And I sure that I say that 543 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: one of those guys will falter, but I would say 544 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: that adds also say that those guys are gonna be 545 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: in credible starters. At least those four are gonna pop 546 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: and and do something. And I just I just believe 547 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: this is a unique situation where you have an opportunity 548 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: to get a guy that you can build your office 549 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 1: around and make special stuff happen. I'm taking one of 550 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: those guys because even when I compare those guys to 551 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: what could be available as a position player, the difference 552 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: in this draft. I don't think there is like the 553 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 1: the crown jewel position player out there that's not a 554 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: quarterback that we're saying, hey, this is the transcendent player 555 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: that would be a top five player in any draft. 556 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I'm I'm more likely to lean 557 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: towards a quarterback. Yeah, I agree, I'm with you on that. Um. 558 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 1: How about the Eagles. The Eagles now are in a 559 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: situation where I actually really like where their position because 560 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: if you look at them, traditionally ast year they took 561 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: a receiver Reagor, which I thought was a reach in 562 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 1: the first round, But traditionally as an organization, they've believed 563 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: in big guys, in in uh in premier positions in 564 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: the first round. So now where they were at six, 565 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: they were kind of staring to me, Kyle Pitts was 566 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 1: you know the Jamaar chases. That's where that was the 567 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: value where they were picking there. Those are the best 568 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: players they're gonna see. Well, now you slide back to 569 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: twelve and you you might have a chance to get 570 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: certain the corner Um who after Farley's back situation, I 571 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: think is probably the number one corner on just about 572 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: everybody's board. Um, So you're in range there for him 573 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: and even J. C. Horne. I don't think it's too 574 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: outlandish to take him with the twelfth pick. So you 575 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to get one of the top corners. 576 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: You probably have all of the pass rushers staring in 577 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: the face. You know, if you feel like that's Quitty Pay, 578 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 1: if you feel like that's Greg Roussou, whoever you think 579 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: that is, Jalen Phillips, whoever it is, you have a 580 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 1: chance to get potentially the number one corner or the 581 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: number one pass rusher at twelve. And more so than that, 582 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: you've now next year got probably three first round picks, 583 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: depending on on how Wentz plays with the Colts to 584 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: hit those kickers, that would turn that two into a 585 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: one worst case scenario. Next year you've got two ones. 586 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: You've got two twos. Yeah. I actually like where they're positioned. 587 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: Uh dj I think when you're the Eagles, you're sitting 588 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: there at twelve, you can take a really good position player. 589 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,719 Speaker 1: We go all the way back to their history. They 590 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: need to rebuild the offensive line. They need to be 591 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: fortified the trenches. So you get a big offensive lineman, 592 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 1: you give Jalen Hurts an opportunity to develop. You ask 593 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: some more uh maybe playmakers in the later rounds, and 594 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: then you reassess it next year because now you have 595 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: currency when it comes to the quarterback position, where if 596 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: you need to move off of him, you can put 597 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: yourself in range to be able to do it. I 598 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: think it would have been too tough for them to 599 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: go shopping again at the Quarterback store without fully giving 600 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts an opportunity to be able to do it. 601 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: I think just it muddies the situation, makes it very hard. 602 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: I think this gives them an opportunity to reset and 603 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: rebuild in my mind, with the Tours being a playoff 604 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:06,959 Speaker 1: team in yeah, here's here's let me talk about one 605 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: thing you just mentioned. You talk about the offensive line. 606 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: The one thing I would say that I don't think 607 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: they'll go in that direction, Buck, is that you had 608 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: Jordan my lot of last year, who actually played really well, 609 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: is very gifted. You've got Andre Dillard who missed the 610 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: whole season as a first round pick. He comes back. 611 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: You have Brandon Brooks who missed the season, he comes back. 612 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: You got Lane Johnson's only thirty years old. I mean, 613 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: he's not like he's thirty eight. He's thirty. One of 614 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: the best right tackles in football. Kelsey Okay, maybe you 615 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: know his eventual replacement, but you don't do that first round. 616 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: You know you're not taking a center in the first round, 617 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: and he's he's still playing at a high level. So 618 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 1: I think if they're healthy, even they even have a 619 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: little bit of depth, because I'm guessing that Dillard might 620 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: he might not beat out my lot of he might 621 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: be your swing backup as a first round pick. So 622 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: they I think, I think, I think it points to 623 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: me to to go on defense at twelve. I think 624 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: that's where the value would be if that's where they 625 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: you know, if that if they stay there at twelve. Yeah, 626 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: so if we if we think about defense, then it 627 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: comes a conversation the unknown. Before we had a blueprint 628 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: for how they wanted to play defense. Right now, a 629 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: new scheme, Yeah, new scheme. I don't know. I'm thinking 630 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: maybe it's gonna be some of the stuff that they 631 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: were doing in Indianapolis, like the Tampa two stuff. But 632 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: I'm not necessarily sure because that will kind of change 633 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: the pass rushers and what you want. They did resigned 634 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Graham, I think to a one year deal years old. Yeah, 635 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: so at some point you need um another pass rusher 636 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: in there. So which one of the past rushers would 637 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,719 Speaker 1: potentially fit? Uh? Do they feel good enough about the 638 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: corners that they feel like they can get a lockdown corner? Uh? 639 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: It's interesting, Uh to me, you talked about pass or Tan. 640 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: I do still think that. I know we've kind of 641 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: given him the crown and the mental as number CB one. 642 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: I believe he's the best corner or whatever draft, but 643 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: I I liked him over cal Farli. But I do 644 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: wonder if there's going to be this conversation about Certain 645 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: and j. C. Horn coming off the Pro Days and 646 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: all of all those things. And when I looked at it, 647 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: because I talked about it in my notebook, UM and 648 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: pastor ten, I feel like you're getting the technically refined 649 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: player and J. C. Horne you're getting the more explosive, 650 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: more dynamic player who might have an opportunity to pop 651 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: in the next level if he gets into the right scheme. 652 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: I would be curious to see, based upon what Philadelphia 653 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: wants to do, if that's the conversation, that's the direction 654 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: which one of those guys is a better fit on 655 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: the perimeter. I just think it's a great conversation to 656 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: have at some point when you look at those two guys, 657 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: because both are very, very impressive in their own right. 658 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: I have, uh, let's see, I've got Certain at number 659 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: ten and I've got J. C. Horne at sixteen, I 660 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: moved Farley to seventeen. Most people you talked to around 661 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: the league, so you can't you can't take Farley in 662 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: the first round with just the uncertainty with the health 663 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: stuff with the back. I can believe that said it 664 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: was an outpatient. It was. It wasn't as big of 665 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: a deal. And then like, okay, well you think when 666 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: you think he's gonna go early second round, I'm like, well, 667 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: apparently it's the kind of a deal then yeah, DJ 668 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: I think there are a couple of things that work 669 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: against him. Um, you have the situation with the bag 670 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: that is maybe a recurring injury because back in ten, 671 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: and he has some things he missed all of And 672 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: so you're talking about a player that you haven't seen 673 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: that you won't get a chance to work out, who 674 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: has an injury issue. That leads to some uncertainty. Because 675 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 1: they told me about the guys who had the surgery, 676 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: like Tony Romo was one of somebody else who was 677 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: prominent who also had that back surgery. It it didn't 678 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: paint like a super bleak picture, but it is something 679 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: that you have to consider. And when we think about 680 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: first rounders and the amount of money that's tied into that. 681 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: I can't see where he probably is thinking about, like 682 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: a Jalen Smith situation top of the second round, where 683 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: you can, I guess, mitigate the risk and reward when 684 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: it comes to using the top pick on a player 685 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: like that man, you talk about a reward. The feat 686 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 1: shows up and he is healthy. To me, I think 687 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: he's one of the five best players in the draft. 688 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: Like he's he is, and he all the numbers that 689 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: we saw that Horn and Sir Tan posted, this dude 690 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: was supposed to be even more than he was gonna 691 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: run in the low four threes, jump forty inches, all 692 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: that good stuff. Yeah, I think that what I what 693 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 1: I really like about what we're seeing in this corner 694 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: class D. We have big guys. We have big six 695 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: foot corners, two hundred pounds running in the four fours, 696 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: guys who are also skilled. Before you would have those 697 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: big guys that can run fast, but a lot of 698 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: them we were just kind of relegated to being bumping 699 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: around corners. We're now seeing guys that are skilled at 700 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: the position, meaning their toolbox is full. They can play off, 701 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: they can shadow, they can they can backcutter, they can 702 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: do a bunch of different things. I like it and 703 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: the other thing that is coming. You're also seeing these 704 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: nickel corners specialists, because I know you put Elijah Molden 705 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: in your top fifties, who also have size. Before we 706 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: used to talk about the nickel being the little guy. 707 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: Oh we gotta put the little guy in the nickel position. 708 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: Well now you're getting big guys that are really established 709 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: and trained nickel players. And as we continue to talk 710 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,320 Speaker 1: about the shift or to try towards position list football, 711 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: having guys that are trained to play slot corner Uh, 712 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: that's a huge asset because that is a starting cornerback 713 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: position as more teams are going to a two linebacker 714 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: defense with five dvs on the field on all downs. Yeah, 715 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,320 Speaker 1: it's a fascinating discussion between the trade corners and the 716 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: to me, the more instinctive, really better football player corners. 717 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: So I ended up taking you mentioned Molden. You know 718 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: who's who's a good size, fine size for a nickel, 719 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: but he's not a not a huge guy, as Sante 720 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: Samuel not not a huge guy. But I ended up 721 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: moving them, like over the Georgia corners who we saw 722 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: right six ft plus running a ridiculous or two's four threes. 723 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: But then I you know, I was stacking and I'm looking, 724 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm going, okay. First of all, Sante Samuil didn't know 725 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: how big he was gonna be. I thought he might 726 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 1: be real little. He was not. He checked, he was fine. 727 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: And then speed wise, you know, I was curious to 728 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: see what he ran. Ran a low four force. I'm like, okay, 729 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: so that's not a problem. Now, I know eyes, instincts, 730 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: ball skills, good to go. And then with Molden, even 731 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 1: though I haven't had their pro day yet, I'm like, 732 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: the tape is so clean, I know exactly what he 733 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: is a day one Nickel. He's tough, he's physical. I 734 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 1: can use him to support in there. And again, instincts, 735 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 1: ball skills, and so I'm like, man, let me just 736 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,399 Speaker 1: use the Bucky Brooks backyard theory. If we're if it's 737 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and we're picking teams, I'm gonna take I'm gonna 738 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: take Samuel and Molden over the big athletic. There's just 739 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: better football players. Yeah, So that's why moving those guys up. 740 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: Even though I I love the traits, I do you know, DJ, 741 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: I think there's something too that and I think, uh, 742 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: it's kind of the coin the term that has been coined. 743 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: It's got for years. I want football players, and a 744 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: lot of people like, well, yeah, that's no brander but yeah, 745 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,439 Speaker 1: but what we're talking about is a guy who really 746 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: knows how to play the game, a guy who has 747 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: the i Q and the instincts that they can go 748 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: and they can make everybody right because they knew exactly 749 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 1: what they're doing. You're not having to over coach them 750 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: to get them to learn the basic stuff. Like they 751 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: walk into the field, they're like, all right, coach, I 752 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 1: got it. Like you can tell them one time and 753 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,479 Speaker 1: they get it, and they make plays based on their 754 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 1: knowledge and expertise and experience more so than just their traits. 755 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: Those guys tend to play a long time. And the 756 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: differences this year. Most years, those guys are like, ah, man, 757 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: I like him. He's a really good player, but he's 758 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: slower this year. They have athleticism and and things that 759 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: you're like, no, hey, I'm good, Yeah, I'm good. They're 760 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: they're really fast and athletic and they know how to 761 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: play the game. Yeah, sign me up for those guys, 762 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: no doubt. Um, all right, buck. I think we've hit 763 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: this from every conceivable angle. Here I did mention again 764 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: top fifties out.
