1 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Forties and Free Agents. I am Greg Rosenthal, 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: joined by Daniel Jeremiah. We are just days away from kickoff. 3 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: DJ's getting on a plane to Brazil. But before Forties 4 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,799 Speaker 1: takes a little break, we're gonna do something fun. You 5 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,920 Speaker 1: came up with this idea, DJ. We are going to 6 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 1: draft the teams in the AFC and NFC AFC in 7 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: this show that we believe are most likely to win 8 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl back and forth as our sort of 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: season preview. Are you ready? 10 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: I'm ready man? By the way, uh, I'll take any 11 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 2: tips because I know you were. You were kind of 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 2: the podcast of Europe for Europe. So someone who's traveling 13 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: on a long distance something that you've done in brazilion 14 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: times going to Europe. I'm going to Brazil an any 15 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: fight tips for me there? 16 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: Oh? Well, you you five private, right? You know DJ's 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 1: got that like you're. 18 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: Moron tea plane. We're on the team plane. I'm in 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: the back, so I'm not in any special setup there. 20 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: The time zone is not going to hit you in 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: the face as hard. Obviously, going going down to Brazil, 22 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,759 Speaker 1: I I am jealous, but I am I am going 23 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: over to Dublin in London this year. I don't know 24 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: if I've even sure. Of course I am excited about that, 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 1: but yeah, you know, turn your mind off a little bit. 26 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: You've done enough prep. You're you're ready for that game. 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 2: DJ. We're ready at a very expensive pair of headphones 28 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,039 Speaker 2: because the gentleman that sits behind me on the team 29 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 2: plane snores like a freight train. So I made that. 30 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 2: That was a very expensive investment. We'll see if that 31 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: pays off. That seems like a really wise investment. 32 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: We didn't talk about like who gets the first pick, 33 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: you know, and I just thought, as the host of 34 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: the show, I'm doing a little more work, I should 35 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: get the first pick. So I'm just going to take it. 36 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna that's you would expect me to be 37 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: nice and just give it to you. I'm not giving 38 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: the former Ravens employee a chance to take my number 39 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: one overall pick. I want the Baltimore Ravens there might 40 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: pick to win the whole thing. That's my spoiler. I 41 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: just feel like it's time you put it all all together. 42 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 1: There's there's no reason to me that to think that 43 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: this team is any worse than a year ago. I 44 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: think They're the perfect company combination of talent, youth, experience, 45 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: veteran players and then the second year under Zach Orr 46 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: with the defensive coordinator. Try to find the big weakness 47 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: in this roster. I think it's difficult to do so. 48 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: I like the Baltimore Ravens as the most likely AFC 49 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: team to win the Super Bowl. 50 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 2: That you're such a k Yeah, I mean, I just 51 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: I thought I thought it was just assumed that the 52 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: guest would go first. 53 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: First of all, your name's first on the on the marquee, 54 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: on the you know, and it should be you know, 55 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: you get a bigger salary, you're a you're a bigger job. 56 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 2: But I think if you go back and listen to 57 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: the intro to this podcast, you'll hear that I'm definitely 58 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 2: listed second on there. 59 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: Well when I when I'm saying it. But I like. 60 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: That this is already this draft is already under protest, 61 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 2: already under protests. One pick in never, by the way, 62 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 2: never even discussed beforehand, never even part of it. Just 63 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: an executive decision. What a first class jerk. Okay, I 64 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: would have done the same thing. I would have taken 65 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 2: Baltimore with the first overall pick. So now I'm in 66 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of a spot. 67 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: Here because me so much I love it. 68 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you know here he is. Greg's already he 69 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: can't wait to clip it off. Oh look, the voice 70 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 2: of the Chargers, the analyst for the Chargers, is going 71 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: to take the Kansas City Chiefs with his first pick 72 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 2: to win the AFC. But I'm not going to let 73 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: you do that because I'm going to take Josh Allen 74 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: and the Buffalo Bills is finally, this is really a 75 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: battle between Baltimore and Buffalo to see who can finally 76 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: get over that hurdle, get past Kansas City, get to 77 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl. I'm going to say that this is 78 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 2: the year that that actually happens. I'm going to go 79 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: with the fighting. Josh Allen's a team that when I 80 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 2: was looking at just the roster construction and where they were, 81 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: think about what they did last year. They won thirteen games, 82 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: and they were defensively, couldn't get much worse on third down. 83 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: They were terrible on third down last year, twenty fourth 84 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: in past de five Like those are bad, and they 85 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: don't have to be a top five, top ten group 86 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 2: in those numbers, Like if they can just be middle 87 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 2: of the pack, which I think they will be, and 88 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 2: then hopefully my advice free of charge, just kind of 89 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: let's ease Joey Bosa into this thing. Let's nurse him 90 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: along and have him ready for the stretch run here 91 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: where you can have some impact. I'm gonna say this 92 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: is the year that the Buffalo Bills get over the hump. 93 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: So I love that pick. And they were my AFC 94 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: pick to make the Super Bowl a year ago, and 95 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: they came up a game short. My concern and I'm 96 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: curious because you know, we didn't talk Ravens too much. 97 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm assuming based on how angry you were, that you 98 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: were going to take them first. 99 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: Overall, it's just lack of just a lack of compassionate 100 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: understanding from someone that now you confirmed I thought, but 101 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: now is confirmed someone lacks both those characteristics. 102 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: I just like that you called yourself a guest on 103 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: the show that you co hosts. You know, I think 104 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: that was telling the difference I think between the Ravens 105 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: and the Bills. As much as I agree with you 106 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: on what you're saying on the defensive side of the Bills, 107 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: that there's room for improvement there, and I think there's 108 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: also room for concerns, certainly in their secondary even if 109 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: you called that a wash, I think of the two 110 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: outstanding offenses by both these teams, the two outstanding MVP 111 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: candidacies by their two quarterback the Bills more weapons in Baltimore, 112 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: it's more likely to regress, I think. I think the 113 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: Bill's offense is a little more likely to regress. They 114 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 1: were pretty magical DJ a year ago. Is there any 115 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: any concern that maybe they just they just come back, 116 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: because even if they're like the eighth or ninth best offense, 117 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: they really were outstanding last year with maybe not the 118 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: best group of wide receivers around Josh Allen. 119 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 2: Look to me, they just got to keep two guys healthy. 120 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: If Josh stays healthy and if Cook stays healthy, I 121 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 2: think that's going to be enough. Josh, he's a freak 122 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: show superman. You know, Kaloshker is going to get his 123 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 2: I am kind of excited to see. I was around 124 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 2: Josh Palmer with the Chargers and he's not an elite 125 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 2: level player, but he's a reliable, dependable guy. And I 126 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: just think with Josh Allen, the level that he can 127 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 2: play at and is now as advance and developed as 128 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 2: he is with his freaky talent, I think he elevates 129 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: that group. I sure. I'm hoping that this is the 130 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: year that Dalton kin Kaid delivers on the hype that 131 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: I gave him before the draft, but left wait and 132 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: see on that one. 133 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: I was right there with you on Dalton Kincaid. I 134 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: thought he was an incredible prospect. But yeah, that's partly 135 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: why I like the Ravens a little better, like Isaiah 136 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 1: Likely in a contract year, the depth of their receivers, 137 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 1: the depth of their running backs. But yes, you gave 138 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: me the absolute perfect start to my draft to take 139 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. They would have been second on 140 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: my list. No offense to the Bills fans, I don't 141 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: have to worry about, you know, what the Chargers fans 142 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 1: think or anything like that. It just feels to me 143 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: like you put Patrick Mahomes with a improved offensive line, 144 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: and I do think they will be improved with Josh 145 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: Simmons there at left tackle and a group of wide 146 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: receivers that's ultimately better than any group they've had since 147 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill was on the team. You could even argue 148 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: maybe better than when Tyreek was there. The last year 149 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: because it was a steep drop of I think Xavier 150 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: Worthy's going to get a lot better in year two. 151 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: I think Rashie Rice did get a lot better in 152 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: year two, and that the Chiefs have the luxury of 153 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: I don't really care about the first six games of 154 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: this season. That's not what this is about. The Chiefs 155 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,239 Speaker 1: are thinking about December and January, so his suspension doesn't 156 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: hurt me at all. I love Hollywood Brown in a 157 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 1: role that he doesn't have to be as big of 158 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: a factor, and they have some good speed even off 159 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: the bench with Taekwon Thornton and ju Ju's the number five. 160 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: He's obviously not the speed guy. You don't have to 161 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: count too much on Kelsey. I just think it's really 162 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: deep overall on the offensive side, and I think we 163 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: get more explosive play out of Patrick Mahomes. We know 164 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: what Steve Spagnolo can do. There's a lot of continuity 165 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: on the defense. So I feel really good. Everyone's bored 166 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: of the Chiefs, but I think they're going to be 167 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: more fun to watch this year than they have in 168 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: a few years. 169 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've been lobbying for the Chiefs to just increase 170 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: the fun factor, Like I made the line last year 171 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 2: in the run nup for the draft, Let's make the 172 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: Chiefs fun again. Like they're winning. Obviously, you know they're 173 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: having success, but man, even as someone who's calling games 174 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 2: for arrival inside the division, they were must watch. It 175 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 2: was so much fun those the Tyreek Hill years. And 176 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: then it's kind of just become a slog. There's been 177 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: in no air yards, just everything underneath. Like, let's get 178 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: back to being a vertical passing attack. And I think 179 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy is ready to kind of take that next 180 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: step and can really add that element to this offense. 181 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 2: So I'm hoping that's the case. Is from a fans perspective, 182 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 2: all right, this next one, I've got several different ways 183 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 2: I can go here, and I could play chicken, and 184 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: I could say I won't take the Chargers because I 185 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 2: don't think Greg will take them. He's going to go 186 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 2: in a couple other directions and I could save them 187 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: and then I can get him with my next pick. 188 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna do this just from a standpoint of 189 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 2: absolute belief and confidence and not you know who's going 190 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 2: to be there and try and manipulate the situation. I 191 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 2: would take the Chargers next, and that's wow for me 192 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 2: having a peak behind the curtain. I think people forget 193 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: this is the number one defense in the league last 194 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 2: year and defense, when you looked at it, you go, Okay, well, 195 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 2: Khalil Max, you know, still playing at a solid level, 196 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 2: high level. You've got Derwin James plays at an elite level. 197 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: Dyon Henley I think is a vastly underrated, potential superstar linebacker. 198 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 2: But you didn't have premier corners, you know, against a 199 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: run last year. I think yards per carry, they were 200 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: down towards the bottom of the league, so there were 201 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 2: still areas that they can improve. Now they've got more 202 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: depth at corner. They've added some big bodies to their 203 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 2: defensive tackle group, so they've gotten a lot bigger there. 204 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: They've got a lot of depth along that defensive group. 205 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: I do think you're going to see Henley take a 206 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 2: He's going to be a I think pro bowler is 207 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: underselling it. I think he's got a chance to be 208 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 2: an All Pro for them this year. So I'm very confident. 209 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 2: I think Jesse Menners is good at defensive coach as 210 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: we have in the league, even though he's in his 211 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 2: second year. With what he showed last year, so I'm 212 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 2: bullish on this defense. And I know people are going 213 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: to talk about Slater. Yes, you lost a Pro Bowl, 214 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 2: All Pro left tackle, you're going to replace him with 215 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 2: a Pro Bowl All Pro tackle. Joe All looks better 216 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: at left than you did it right. He looks very 217 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 2: comfortable and confidence. So you've got the hole now on 218 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 2: there at the right tackle position. With Pipkins. I've seen 219 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert in the past take a much less talented 220 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 2: group to the postseason. I think they're gonna be okay there. 221 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 2: And the secret sauce that nobody you got a little 222 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: glimpse of it, Greg, just a little taste of Amorian Hampton, 223 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 2: But people don't know how good this kid is. He 224 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: is going to be fix So this is a team 225 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: last year that was good, that was a playoff team, 226 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 2: eleven win team, and I think they're better. You know, 227 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 2: winning the division is going to be a challenge with 228 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 2: Kansas City there, we'll see if they can push them. 229 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 2: But I think they're in the playoffs and I think 230 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: they make some noise. I'm gonna go to the Chargers. 231 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: I love that you are starting off the draft hot. 232 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: Just admitting your biases take the Chiefs because you're afraid 233 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: and that you're taking the Chargers. But no, to be real, 234 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: your confidence here is giving me a little more confidence 235 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: in the Charges. I love what you. 236 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 2: Just feel like nobody's talking about it's just Denver, Denver, Denver, Denver, 237 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 2: and we're kind of forgetting about the Chargers a little 238 00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: bit through this thing. 239 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: That's a good place to be for the Chargers because, 240 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: as you know, year after year after year after year, 241 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: they are the media preseason Darling. And it's a good point. 242 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think about that that this year the Broncos 243 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: have replaced them as the preseason Darling. I had the 244 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: Chargers certainly higher than the Broncos would have been pretty 245 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: high on my list. I do have them in the playoffs. 246 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 1: You know, we're not making official playoff predictions. It's about 247 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: who could win the Super Bowl. I think their ceiling 248 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 1: is quite high, and I like everything sidebar. 249 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 2: Who's going to be the first team to blink and 250 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: take another AFC East team? Go ahead, it's going to 251 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: be the first one to blink and do it. How 252 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 2: long will it be a litle while? It'll be a 253 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 2: little while. I did want to ask you because you 254 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: know so much about this steament. You said you feel 255 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 2: better about their defensive tackle spot after losing do An 256 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: Afford because the Rams think they've solved everything by getting 257 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: Why is that? Why is that because they've done it 258 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 2: with numbers and depth they've got. They've just got more 259 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 2: guys they can roll through there, and they're bigger, they're 260 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: more physical. I found I was referencing the number. They 261 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 2: were twenty seventh in yards per carry last year. They 262 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 2: play with those light boxes. So Puna is a really 263 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: good player, a good individual player, But I think they've 264 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 2: gotten collectively bigger and there's a lot more depth there. 265 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm debating. I'll put my cards on the 266 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: table between the Texans and the Bengals, and this is 267 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: a most likely to win the Super Bowl, which is 268 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: maybe a little It's potentially different than where they finish 269 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: in the standings. Like, is the Bengals ceiling high enough 270 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: that they should overtake a team that I ultimately feel 271 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 1: is more complete the Houston Texans. I'm going to say no, 272 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: because the Houston Texans are just more likely to win 273 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: their division, get a home game in the playoffs, and 274 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: ultimately I trust the overall structure and foundation better. So 275 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to take the Houston Texans. I'm doing my 276 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: work out loud as we speak. They have a quarterback 277 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: that I believe is talented and smart enough and has 278 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: the experience to be a super Bowl quarterback. I think 279 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: the system will take little time to get going, but 280 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: ultimately I think the system and some of the talent, 281 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: even if it's not huge names like Rante Ersrie you 282 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: know I left tackle now, will help their offensive line. 283 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: I just think it's about players, not just scheme and man. 284 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: The players on this defense are so freaking good. If 285 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: you're looking for a defense that I think the Bills, 286 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Ravens, Bengals, anyone should be afraid of. 287 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: And the Chargers know this well. It is the Houston Texans. 288 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 1: So could I see them getting like a tour or 289 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: a three seed only needing to win one road game, 290 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: ripping off with a crazy defense on the road and 291 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: making it to the Super Bowl. I can see that, 292 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: and I am taking the Houston Texans. 293 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would have been my pick, So I can't 294 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 2: smirch your choice there. That was the most dominant defense 295 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 2: I saw in that playoff game last year against the 296 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: charges them. It was just overwhelming, and they especially at home, 297 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: and you bring up a great point where they're you know, 298 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: if all the teams you feel the most confident about 299 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: winning their division, I would say Buffalo would be number 300 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 2: one on the list of teams that I'm very confident 301 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 2: it's going to win their division. And in the AFC, 302 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,439 Speaker 2: I would put Houston at number two, even ahead of Baltimore. 303 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 2: I just feel like that there's such a gap between 304 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: them and everybody else in that division. So they're going 305 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 2: to be at home there in the postseason. So I 306 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 2: get that pick. I'm gonna pick the one that you 307 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: left out, and that Cincinnati, And you know, maybe I'm 308 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 2: just I'm going to buy into this hole. Let's just 309 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: let's get nice and loosened up and limbered up in 310 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 2: the preseason. Let's get Joe Burrow a lot of action 311 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: out there where it looked like it was it was 312 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: a like a father son picnic game out there watching 313 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow and all their starters just destroy all the 314 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 2: backup players they were playing against in the preseason. But hey, 315 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 2: if they get off to a decent start, we know 316 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 2: what this offense is capable of, the defense just it's 317 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: just a law of averages, like they can't be that bad. 318 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 2: And I don't think it was lou Anromo's fault by 319 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: any stretch, but I do think you bring in Al 320 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: Golden to someone who can work with younger players that 321 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 2: are going to rely a lot on. They got the 322 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 2: Trey Hendrickson deal done last year year. It's kind of 323 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 2: just a mess and they won nine games. This is 324 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 2: talent wise offensively this team could carry them to eleven 325 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 2: twelve wins. 326 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: So I got warmed up for this show last week 327 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: with my friend maybe our friend, I don't know, if 328 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: you know Nick Wright. We did the over under win totals. 329 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: We were going through some teams with that, and he 330 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: was on the underside, and I ultimately agreed with him. 331 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: He wouldn't have been They wouldn't have been a team 332 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: I felt strongly about. There is something there and I 333 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: hate that this is just part of my thinking organizationally 334 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: that like the foundation of it, there's something just bengalsy 335 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: that I don't trust that it could crumble a little bit, 336 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: that the defensive talent just isn't good enough. I don't 337 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: think that will happen. They would have been my pick, 338 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: as I said, but I just think they are a 339 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: higher variants. I think we've gone through what I would 340 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: consider the Big six in the AFC, where it's going 341 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: to be a big disappointment for any of these teams 342 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: if they don't make the playoffs. But to me, of 343 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: these teams, the Bengals are easily the most likely team 344 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: not to make the playoffs. I just think more things 345 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: can go wrong, even though their ceiling is higher. So 346 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: we get to the seventh pick, I say there's a 347 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: big six. Will Broncos fans take that as an insult? 348 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: They probably will, but not as much as a pick. 349 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to make over the Broncos next, because. 350 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 2: You gotta take the Steelers. I can see it in 351 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 2: your eyes. I am. 352 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: Actually, you're right, exercise I am, he nailed it. This 353 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: exercise is different. So the exercises who could make the 354 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: Super Bowl? 355 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: Is it? 356 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: Who can make it? Who can win it? 357 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 2: I don't know who can win the Super Bowl. There's 358 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 2: only one winner in this and we have two drafts 359 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: and there will be one winner, and it's just simply 360 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 2: which team wins the super Bowl. 361 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: Okay, I think if it's just winning the super Bowl 362 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 1: as much as I don't personally believe in Aaron Rodgers 363 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: as the solution to get this thing going, I obviously 364 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: don't know what the heck's going to happen. And I 365 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: think if you're looking at the ceiling and the variance 366 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: and the talent and the coaching staff and the young 367 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: offensive line that I don't think people are talking enough 368 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: about where they're really excited about really young players throughout 369 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: their offensive line. I think left tackle PROGERC. Jones is 370 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: the big question mark that they're given a chance to 371 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: But the upside for that offensive line I think is 372 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: quite high. The front sevens top to bottom, probably the 373 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: best in the entire NFL. We love the coaching you 374 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: bring in Jalen Ramsey. There is a lot to like. 375 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: If Rogers can just be anywhere near like confident in 376 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,360 Speaker 1: just hanging in the pocket a little longer, win from 377 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: the neck up, but also make a few more plays 378 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: with his legs and be the old Aaron Rodgers, it 379 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: all comes together and they make the Super Bowl. I 380 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: think they have a higher ceiling than the Denver Broncos 381 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: and some of the other teams left. 382 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have gone Again, I hate agreeing with 383 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 2: you but I would have gone in that direction. You 384 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 2: haven't really straight from my list of how these teams stacked. 385 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 2: The thing I would point out the Steelers, and I 386 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,120 Speaker 2: think we've had this conversation before, is if you look 387 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 2: at what they've done in the offseason with DK Metcalf 388 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 2: at receiver, Caleb Johnson at the back, then you go 389 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 2: Derek Harmon and Ya Black at defensive on the defensive front, 390 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 2: Jack Sawyer on the edge. This is this has been 391 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 2: a physicality based off season. They've gotten bigger, they've gotten 392 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 2: more physical, They've kind of gotten back to who they 393 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: are as the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I love what they've done. 394 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 2: I saw a stat of the day too. I think 395 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,479 Speaker 2: this is the thirty year in a row that all 396 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 2: the draft picks made the team. They've done a really 397 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 2: good job of picking players over the last couple of years. 398 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: And you know, I'm bullish on that. It comes down 399 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 2: to Aaron like how you know how well he plays 400 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 2: as he stay healthy. In terms of the ceiling, I 401 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 2: think they have a very high floor. Like I don't 402 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 2: envision any where they win nine to ten wins. I 403 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 2: think they woke up this morning with nine or ten wins. Then, 404 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: however Aaron Rodgers plays determines where they go from there. 405 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: Wow, we disagree there. I do think there's variance where 406 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: it could go sideways. But yeah, in the league where 407 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: everyone's going two tight ends, the Steelers will top you. 408 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: They got three or four of them that they can 409 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: put out there and they can match you. I love 410 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: Mount Washington, Tay an extra tackle. Washington is he's playing, 411 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: he's a third tackle. And I don't know, I mean Greg, 412 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: Greg is uh, you know, clearly allergic to the sun, 413 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 1: while Mike Tomlin's allergic to a losing season. So I mean, 414 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: there's no there's no, there's no way this team is 415 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: under five hundred. That does what is that like a lighting? 416 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: A lighting? 417 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 2: Take there the lights shining on your little pop there. 418 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 2: We gotta we gotta lower that heat on that light 419 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 2: a little bit or no? Do you what what what 420 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 2: it makes? It warms you up? Would that be more 421 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 2: more light? 422 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: I'm not going in the sun. All right, You're you're 423 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: gonna wrap up the first half of this draft. 424 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,640 Speaker 2: With I'm gonna take I'm taking Denver Break, I'm taking Denver. 425 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 1: Uh. 426 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 2: I think the defense is gonna be awesome. We talked 427 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: about it in terms of one of my favorite players 428 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: in the draft, Jeda Baron, and like, I don't shout, 429 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what is uh, his role is 430 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 2: going to be. Like they they got to squeeze him 431 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 2: in because they have so much talent on their secondary 432 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 2: and you know, he can play in the nickel, he 433 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: can play outside. But they have got embarrassment of riches. 434 00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 2: They have a lot of speed in their front seven. 435 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: They're very well coordinated and coached. And it's year two 436 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 2: Sean Payton, uh with with bon Nix. I was talking 437 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: to Bucky about this the other day. If you if 438 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,919 Speaker 2: you're looking at offensive mind wise, you know who are 439 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 2: the two guys, the two coaches you would point to 440 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 2: over the last you know, fifteen years in terms of 441 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: longevity and success, It's Andy Reid and Sean Payton. And 442 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: I do find it fascinating if both of those guys 443 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 2: have built their offenses inside out, you know, with with 444 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 2: you know, tight ends, you know, look at slot receivers, 445 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 2: running backs. With Sean Payton, obviously Kelsey, that offense has 446 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: gone through him, you know, for for a decade here. 447 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 2: So I think Sean Payton's kind of got the personnel 448 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 2: that he likes. And I think from a fantasy standpoint, 449 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: if you're if you're if you haven't had your fantasy 450 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: draft yet, take Evan Ingram. Evan Ingram is going to 451 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: have a monster season in this system. 452 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: That's great news. My son took him. 453 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 2: So I like, here you go. I like that call. 454 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 1: And when you say from the inside out too, you know, 455 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: Sean Payton just loves paying those guards in New Orleans 456 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: and developing those guards, and he's done the exact same 457 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 1: in Denver. They are great from the inside out. Yeah, 458 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm not like I had the Broncos actually written down 459 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: ahead of the Steelers, and then when I thought about it, 460 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: I'm not there yet. I'm just I'm just not there 461 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: enough to see bo Nicks winning a Super Bowl. Maybe 462 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: he'll prove me wrong. And so I think the ceiling 463 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: is just a little bit lower. We're going to take 464 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll be back with the rest of 465 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: the AFC draft. 466 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 2: All right, Greg, We're gonna keep this thing rolling here. 467 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 2: I just picked Denver, but I was thinking about this, 468 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 2: where would be the cutoff on the players all the 469 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 2: teams we have picked so far? Right, we got eight 470 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 2: is that right, we've got eight off the board, four piece. 471 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 2: If I were to say the rest of these teams, 472 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: so the remaining teams or one team, so you get 473 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 2: the one team or the field. Where is the cutoff 474 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: line where you would take eight of these teams? Like 475 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 2: obviously I would still I would take Baltimore, Buffalo, in 476 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 2: the city, all all versus this whole field. But is 477 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 2: there is there? Where does the line stop? Where you go? 478 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 2: You know what? I think I would take these other 479 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 2: eight teams versus this one team. 480 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: I would still take the Texans over everyone. I would 481 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: still take the Bengals. I just yeah, I think there's 482 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: only so many teams. I think i'd even take like 483 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: the Chargers over the rest of these teams. I just 484 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: think there's only so many teams. 485 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh the line is like, we have Pittsburgh Denver, Like, 486 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 2: would you take me. 487 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: Now taking the deal along with Pittsburgh. I don't believe 488 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh enough. 489 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 2: I would take the field's So that tells us that 490 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 2: we have six teams one, two, three, four, five, six, 491 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 2: and that's the line. 492 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, maybe the Broncos don't even make it for me. 493 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: They you know, we like to have this idea that 494 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: anyone could make it, and anyone could but to win. 495 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: I feel like there's about eleven twelve teams every year. 496 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 1: That's a lot of teams. The NBA's got like four 497 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 1: every year, but it's not bigger than that, which makes 498 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: me feel better about I might as well just take 499 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: the Patriots now, like I got to take someone, and 500 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: I I do. I'm that I'm not as high on 501 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: them as people there locally are. I think the expectations 502 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: are out of whack. I think an eight and nine 503 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 1: season for a team that's won eight games combined over 504 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: the last two years should be absolutely looked at as 505 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: like a step forward. And as long as Drake May 506 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: plays well something, you know that they can build the 507 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: depth of this team out long term, and I think 508 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: that's about where they'll land eight or nine wins. And yet, man, 509 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: I do think Drake May is special, So I can't 510 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: talk out of both sides of my mouth. If if 511 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: any of these teams remaining, he is the quarterback. I 512 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: believe that could just take the biggest leap play at 513 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: the highest level. And they did invest a lot and 514 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 1: have a lot of talent on the defense, could it 515 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 1: all come together with an easy schedule where you get 516 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: a pretty nice record and you scare some teams in 517 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: the playoffs. It could happen. I don't expect it to happen, 518 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: but I think they have a better path than any 519 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: of the rest of these teams. 520 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't love my options here at this point 521 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 2: in time, and I would agree in terms of if 522 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 2: you're going to take these eight teams and have a 523 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 2: quarterback draft for these eight teams, Drake May would be 524 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 2: the first pick of group. 525 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: He's taking Drake May over Trevor Lawrence in twenty twenty. 526 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 2: Five, I will, I would, But then again, this is 527 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 2: not who's going to have the best record in order here. 528 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: This is a chance to win the Super Bowl. So 529 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: I'm looking at upside and I'm looking at you know, how, 530 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 2: how is a path that they do this? How do 531 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 2: they accomplish this? So I'm going to take Jacksonville next. 532 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 2: And again I don't love this, but I know that 533 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 2: he hasn't played to it. But there's been glimpses that 534 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: we've seen Trevor play at a high level. I saw 535 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 2: him after a terrible start to a playoff game, orchestrate 536 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 2: a huge comeback and they want. I've seen this organization 537 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 2: obviously a lot of different all new faces, totally different leadership, 538 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 2: but I've seen this organization with a surprise appearance in 539 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 2: an AFC championship game, kind of out of nowhere, the 540 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 2: Blake Bortles year. So they have a little bit of 541 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 2: that DNA in their organization of kind of an out 542 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 2: of nowhere season and it's not hard to envision. And 543 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: they don't want anybody to get hurt. But if CJ. 544 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 2: Strou will somehow get hurt in this season, like I 545 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,479 Speaker 2: think they they would win that division. They would win 546 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 2: that division. Of all the teams that are remaining, I 547 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 2: think they have a more plausible path to win a division, 548 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 2: get a home playoff game, and then maybe you get 549 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence on a heater, which he did in college. 550 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 2: Maybe he finds that. So I don't love the I 551 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,359 Speaker 2: don't love the options remaining, but I would go with Jacksonville. 552 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't long ago they were in the 553 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: divisional round. I agree with you. I actually think they're 554 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: more likely to make the playoffs than the Patriots. I 555 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: have them in the playoffs. I know this is that 556 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: what we're doing here? Yeah, yeah, I think they have 557 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: some upside. Their front with Trevn Walker gets better every year, 558 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: Josh Heinz Allen and then Ark Armstead. What we've heard 559 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: out of camp lately is really positive. And then you 560 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: add Travis Hunter to that secondary. They like Jordan Lewis, 561 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: it's Tyson Campbell's healthy again. I actually think the defense 562 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: is my biggest concern, and I think there's a path 563 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 1: to them be an averager above average, and then yeah, 564 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: it's all about Trevor and the offensive scheme helping out. 565 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: It's an easy schedule. I think they can win ten 566 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: games this year because of we're not picking the records. 567 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: Like you said, I'm really not that high on the 568 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins this year. But if I'm picking a team out 569 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: of the rest of them that everything could go right 570 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: and win the Super Bowl and make the Super Bowl, 571 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: it is definitely the Dolphins because of not just the 572 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 1: talent and the production that we've seen is proven out 573 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: of that passing game and the running game at least 574 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. But they need to get 575 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: that going again. But I do think the defense has 576 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: some upside. The secondary is thin, but year two of this, 577 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: Ravens like scheme with Anthony Weaver, with the amount of 578 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: players that they have on the front, adding a healthy 579 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips to a group that already had Chop Robinson 580 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: and Zach Seeler is really effective. Even if they don't 581 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: get a ton out of Bradley Chubb, like, there is 582 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: a lot of talent there. They love Jordan Brooks. I 583 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: think if you just like add up the rankings of 584 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: the players on the team DJ, the Dolphins are pretty 585 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: talented team. They may be are less than the some 586 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 1: of their parts, but they're a pretty talented team. 587 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. And I heard Chris Greed of the day talking 588 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: about their focus was trying to get younger and faster 589 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 2: and more athletic. They're playing some younger guys, so it'll 590 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: be good to see. We talked about Minka. Can he 591 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 2: get back to kind of who he was a few 592 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 2: years ago will be key for them. But again, at 593 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 2: this point in time, and I'm not going to trash 594 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: all these teams, but I don't love love the choices 595 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 2: that I'm faced with here. I'm gonna give you a 596 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 2: peek behind the curtain, and my choice with this next one, 597 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 2: I think it's very clearly between I would say Vegas 598 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 2: in Cleveland for me and Wow Cleveland. I would make 599 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 2: the argument that you know, you're hoping that there's just 600 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 2: some magic Joe Flacco carpet ride and that Miles Garrett 601 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 2: and this defense with Jim Schwartz, they keep scores lower 602 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 2: and then somehow ninety year old Joe Flacco is functional 603 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 2: for them. I can't, I can't get there with that. 604 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go with Pete Carroll with the confetti falling, 605 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 2: and Pete Carroll and Gino Smith, you know, on the stage. 606 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: Do you remember when the Eagles won and Kevin Hart 607 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 2: tried to get up on the stage and then they 608 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: kept him from getting there. If Gino Smith is hosting 609 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 2: the trophy, I don't care how big your bodyguards are, NFL, 610 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: You're not keeping Greg Rosenthal from that stage. He is 611 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: just I'm talking about a club rip, move on one guard. 612 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about at a little slap swim over another one, 613 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 2: and then just going underneath the legs of the third 614 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 2: guard and then just bear hugging Gino Smith as he's 615 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: hoisting the trophy, looking and going what the heck is 616 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 2: this guy doing? 617 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: Oh? 618 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: It's Greg, My biggest supporter. You can hang up here, Greg, 619 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: no problem. 620 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean he follows me on Twitter, so there's a 621 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: chance that he knows who I am. Maybe I would 622 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: aim lower, maybe just try to get him as a 623 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: guest on the postgame Super Bowl NFL Daily, which that 624 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: would be very difficult to do as well, but we 625 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: we somehow got to the A. 626 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 2: I think you have better odds of dodging some guards. 627 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I know you've noticed I you know I 628 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: have been working out a little one, so I don't 629 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: know if I can get best security. I like that 630 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: if any of these teams are going to just have 631 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 1: a magic carpet ride, why not the Raiders. I'm gonna 632 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: go with the Jets. 633 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: Let's go. 634 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna overachieve this year. So I think 635 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: they actually of the teams that have like an over 636 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: under win total under let's say six and a half 637 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: or so, there's probably like eight nine teams in the 638 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: NFL this year. With that, I think they're the most 639 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: likely to make the playoffs. I think they have a 640 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: good offensive line. I think sometimes culture change can matter 641 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: a lot uh in covering up, and then schedule can 642 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: cover up a lot. And they have a very easy 643 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: schedule on paper. I think the offensive line, like I 644 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: mentioned that they know what they want to be offensively, 645 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: and Robert Sala and Joe Douglas left around a lot 646 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: of defensive talent on that team. I don't think it's 647 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: a bad team. I think they're going to win, you know, seven, 648 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: eight games something like that this year if I had 649 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: to guess, But I'll go Jets. 650 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 2: All right, I'm changing my tune because I did. I 651 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 2: missed one team on my list here that I was 652 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 2: looking at, and uh. 653 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: You said you're taking Browns. I was leaving. 654 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 2: I was like, I was going to take then, but 655 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: see I was comparing. I thought my choice was going 656 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 2: to be Jets, Browns, Titans, and I forgot. We haven't 657 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: picked the Colts yet. Uh, And the Colts won eight 658 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 2: games last year. I mean that I got to take 659 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 2: the Colts and Danny Dimes here that they're going to 660 00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: emerge out of a very suspect average division with really 661 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: kind of one one top team there in Houston, So 662 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 2: I can I can find a path for them to 663 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 2: get to the postseason. I mean, they're kind of a 664 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: boring team, to be honest, but I am excited to 665 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 2: see one of my favorite players in the draft, and 666 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 2: Tyler Warren, see what he does there for this offense. 667 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go there. He's gonna be a good player, 668 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 2: so I'm gonna I'm gonna go Indy. But again, you 669 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 2: can kind of sense in our voices the lack of 670 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 2: enthusiasm as we get to this portion of the draft. 671 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: Well, you know, every teams beautiful going into Week one, 672 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: you never know exactly what they're going to look like. 673 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: I think the Colts actually have more talent than the 674 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: rest of the teams here. They're the team though that 675 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: I worry about being less than the some of their parts, 676 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: and just that there's been a lot of drama and 677 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: is everyone on the same page in the building. There's 678 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: just a lot of tension. That said, they change Stikeens 679 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: won a lot of games with Gardner Minshew and struggling 680 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson and Joe Flacco last year as a good coach. 681 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: It's a fair point that, look, they've they've managed to 682 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: be a five hundred team. I'll go Titans next. I'll 683 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 1: leave the Browns for you. I believe this is the 684 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: fifteenth pick. What a story would be the Callahan coach 685 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: and his dad up on the podium. I mean, would 686 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: be the most stunning Super Bowl champion I think ever, 687 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: it would pass the ninety nine Rams, that one that 688 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 1: was pretty wild at the time if you take yourself 689 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: back to that moment at least how that season started. 690 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: They have a quarterback, and they've got a pretty talented 691 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: offensive line. I think if you're a Tennessee Titans fan, 692 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: I think there are things to be excited about to 693 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 1: watch with this team. The younger players developed, like a 694 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: JC Latham and a cam Ward and you can feel 695 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: good potentially at the end of the season even if 696 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: they only win six or seven games. As long as cam. 697 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 2: Ward plays, well, wow, they're gonna be fun. And that's 698 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 2: my take that I've had all off season with them, 699 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 2: is that they're not gonna be good, but they're gonna 700 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 2: be fun. Cam Ward is gonna make them fun to watch, 701 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: and some of those young receivers as well. So you 702 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 2: left me Cleveland, I'm going to take them the last 703 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: pick here, and I can only give you the image 704 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 2: that would just make my life, and that is the 705 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns on a magic carpet ride. Joe Flackle got 706 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 2: hurt halfway through the year, Gabriel takes over and Dylan 707 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 2: Gabriel goes on this epic run as this point guard 708 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: point guard quarterback. Jerry Judy's getting the rock and Joeku's 709 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 2: getting going. Somehow, they magically get their second round pick, 710 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 2: quin Shawn Judkins in the organization, and he's running the 711 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 2: ball really well. In the second half of the season. 712 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett is the game plan him in the Super Bowl. 713 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: We can't we can't let Miles Garrett beat us, ladies 714 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 2: and gentlemen, your Super Bowl MVP Mason Graham. And then 715 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: my life is complete. I'm good to go. I retire 716 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 2: from the NFL network slash Disney and uh and I'm 717 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 2: done because I just want to be I want to 718 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 2: see Greg's reaction to Mason Graham winning the Super Bowl MVP. 719 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 2: That's my last pick. 720 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, after what like a half tackle, you know in 721 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: the beginning, but he took up blockers. He took up 722 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: some blockers. I know you were honking about that first 723 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: preseason game. Twelve snaps, every. 724 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 2: Every sack and tackle for loss. I'm gonna can you 725 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 2: set up your phone to get like an alert for that? 726 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: I might set my phone up to get an alert 727 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 2: so that I can just text Greg while I'm calling 728 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 2: a Charger game that Mason Graham just had to tackle 729 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 2: for loss. 730 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: I was wondering where you're going with that whole Browns thing. 731 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: I was, I was along for the ride, and you 732 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: landed that plane. That was That was magical. All right, 733 00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: that's the AFC. We have one more forties and free agents. 734 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 2: Before I better get the first pick.
