We're gonna do 46 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: that for all thirty two teams today. In fact, I 47 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: haven't told check this in the past. We used to 48 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: do this in training camp all the time. You get 49 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: these long nights, you get the practices in, and in 50 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: the evenings, you're away from your family with all your 51 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: scouting buddies. You kind of just sit back and play games. 52 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: We play games, have these type of conversations. We used 53 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: to be like, okay, if we could take out one 54 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: guy from the Steelers, who would it be, and we 55 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: can take them out? You know who? It was like 56 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: go back to seven guests, oh three, oh three, oh four, Like, okay, 57 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: we can just take one dude away for it had 58 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: to be like backed in and it's problem. It had 59 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: to be like Troy that was the number one. Like 60 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: we would go around the rooms, all right, Steelers, we 61 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: can we we could take one guy out of their 62 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: line of Pooda be Paula malo po critical to what 63 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: they did, being able to play in the uh deep 64 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: middle coming down into box. He was h freelancing and 65 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: making plays. You raise him and kind of change his 66 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 1: the structure of their defense one year. Uh, I remember 67 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: we we just time. But with Cincinnati, um, you might 68 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: not guess this one so used to kill us with 69 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: the Bengals, think about like circus, like oh four or 70 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: five somewhere around there. Hushman's boom, look at you, buddy. 71 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: The only reason because I know he used to. He 72 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: used to give people fits in that division. It was 73 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: like just a handful of teams. It's funny. He only 74 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: would average like ten or eleven yards of catch, but 75 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: there were certain guys did even cover him. We couldn't 76 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: cover that dude. Yeah, we have a couple of big games, 77 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: but who spans out of gain us all the time. 78 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, anyway, so we're gonna go through all the 79 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: teams and uh and give you who a player if 80 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: you're a fan like you say you're a fan of 81 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. So we'll get into it. Man. You 82 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: just cross your fingers every time you update Twitter that 83 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: this dude's okay. And we've already seen. We saw a 84 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: little scare today, um with the Bears stomach bug I 85 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: thought it was I just saw like carded off and 86 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: that's all I saw. I was like, that ain't good. 87 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: The thing that came through the email. I think he 88 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: had like a little stommay. But they don't really disclose 89 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: their injuries, so you should got John Fox not telling 90 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: anybody secretive. There you go. But before we get into 91 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: all that, Bucky, I know this isn't This is an 92 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: open format here, and and sometimes you like to celebrate 93 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: life's great moments, and then sometimes you have to be 94 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: able to vent a little bit. And I know, I 95 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: know you're dying to get some stuff off your chest. 96 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: With with one Ryan Fitzpatrick, Oh my god, our long 97 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: National Night Man finally over. Well I'm back with the Jets. 98 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: I'm glad. I expect him to play better than Joe Nameth. 99 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: He should be Broadway Joe. Um. By the way, you 100 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: tweeted that out. I did. I actually text you. I said, 101 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: hold up, are you debating somebody on Twitter whether Joe 102 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: Namethatrick had a better It was like a better play 103 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: than Joe name him like that is Twitter? That is 104 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: Twitter too has a gold jacket. You're debating Joe Nameth 105 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: versus Ryan Fitzpatrick. And there's legitimately somebody taking the other 106 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: side of the argument. All right, you know the funny thing. 107 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: So here's the deal with the Jets. The Jets are 108 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: and when now mode. Obviously they resigned Mohammed Wilkes and 109 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,119 Speaker 1: they Darren Lee to come in. Ryan Fitzpatrick is viewed 110 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: as the lynchpan to their success. I did have outstanding 111 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: year last year. One touchdowns, only fifteen interceptions. He played 112 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: at a career level. I just wonder if you can 113 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: duplicate it, because we've seen him play for a long 114 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: time in the league and he's never played to that level. 115 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 1: His career record is funny because we get those packs. 116 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: His career record as a starter Pride last year and one. 117 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: So if we're talking about the Dubs, by the way, 118 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: Sanchez I'm guessing is still probably over five hundred, I think. 119 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: So we're gonna get some We're gonna get some homework 120 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: on that. We got Sully back there, Suley on the 121 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: computer back there's working away man doing some starts because 122 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: we have we're taping our video segments for YouTube later. 123 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: So he's he's working on research. That little plug I 124 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: see he puts a tie on and now he's like 125 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: the marketing department. He's everything. Oh, he's everything, he's everybody, 126 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: He's everything. Yes, thirty havn in thirty five marks and 127 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: he's over is over five hundred. He was thirty three 128 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: and twenty nine. With the Jets all right with with 129 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady missing four games, I think they're gonna be okay. 130 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: With Grappolo, We've talked about that a bunch, but the 131 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: Jets Fitzpatrick back in the fold. Who's who's a greater 132 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: threat to them in that division? Is it? Is it 133 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: the Jets? Is that Dolphins? Is that the Bills? Last 134 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: year I was all in on the Bills. I would 135 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: say the greatest ray will be the Buffalo Bills. I 136 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: believe they get a defense back on track, They're a 137 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: little more dynamic on offense, and they don't have the 138 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: fear factor. The Miami dolphense could be and should be 139 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: pretty good. Uh Adam Gates. I think we'll kind of 140 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: streamline the playbook to hear Bryan Tannehill have some success. 141 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: Getting Aaron Foster was a big gift for them. I 142 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: think he'll help their running game a lot. And then 143 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: I like Vanis Joseph. I think Vans josephul do a 144 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: great job with their defense. I just don't know if 145 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: anyone's gonna give aster Pages. I think the Pages are 146 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: a better team. Uh. I like the two headed tandem 147 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 1: with Rob Ncowsky. Martell has been in The versatility you 148 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: have in the backfield and anytime you have time terrific. Yes, 149 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: here's the two things that worry me about the Bills, 150 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: and we'll we'll get into our game here in just 151 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: a second. But the Carlos Williams situation where he had 152 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: his wife had a baby, he put on a bunch 153 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: of way then he ended up getting suspended. I was 154 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: kind of counting on him to kind of take that 155 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: next step and be that nice one to punch there 156 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: with with with Lashawn McCoy, that wasn't like it's gonna happen. 157 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: I like Jonathan Williams rookie at of Arkansas, did he 158 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: had a d U I Jonathan Williams didn't. And then 159 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: and then you you put that together with Shack Lawson 160 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: having the shoulder surgery. We don't know when he's gonna 161 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: be ready to go. So those are kind of young 162 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: guys I thought would be kind of key pieces for 163 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: this Bill's team. I still think that the Patriots of 164 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: the class of the division. They had a class of division. Uh, 165 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure on the Buffalo Bills. They're coaching 166 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: staff to get this right. When you look at their roster, 167 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: you can say their roster is talented enough to be 168 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: a team that is a viable playoff contender. Rex Ryan 169 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: has to clean up the penalties and some of the 170 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: issues that plagued them in big games. Penalties and turnovers. 171 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: They gotta clean that up. Gotta continue to get strong 172 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: play from Tyrod Taylor. But you need Sammy Watkins healthy. 173 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins is coming off an injury, still nursing. I 174 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: think it's the foot injury that he's dealing with. I 175 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: need Sammy Watkins to be that dominant player. You know 176 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: they traded up to get him. He is delivered and 177 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: shown flashes, but he hasn't played to that level that 178 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: you're sexpecting to play. Needed to kind of step up 179 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: and really be a big time player. No, I'll be 180 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: interesting to follow there. Um, you want to jump in 181 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: on these teams, then, yeah, which we're starting and let's 182 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 1: start a FC Let's just start right here. We're talking 183 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: about the Bills, so let's jump in on them a player. 184 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: If you're gonna take the quarterback out of it, Tyrod 185 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 1: Taylor looks like he's trying to get paid as well. 186 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: Who's the one guy on this team they cannot afford 187 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: to have go down? And I'll tell you, I'll give 188 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: you mine, give you a second to think about it. Here, 189 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, Darius, that's where I had my eyes on. 190 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: Marshall Darius in the middle, dominant player, pro Bowl player, 191 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: a guy that can get you tim plus sacks from 192 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: the ends, says the table to be when he stops 193 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: to run. He has to be a guy that is 194 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: there for all six team for them to play to 195 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 1: their potential on defense, he sets the tone. Look a Dolphins, 196 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: Washington has to also come in and be an athletic force. 197 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: They get Cayl Williams there, so I like the veteran presence. 198 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: But Marcella Darius to me, is the guy who stirs 199 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: to drink. All right, I'm with you on that. Let's 200 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: move to the Let's move to the Miami Dolphins. And 201 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: if we're gonna look at one player on their team 202 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: they cannot afford to lose, I think offensive linewise, they're okay. 203 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: Because Tunsel has a versatility to play wherever they want 204 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: him to play. UM. So, even if you did lose 205 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: a Brandon Albert or even Juwan James, I think it's 206 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: a really good young right tackle. They'll be fine there. 207 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: But I do I am gonna stay on the the offensive 208 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,719 Speaker 1: side of the ball and just say with what he's 209 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: already become early in his career, Jarvis Landry with the 210 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: playmaking ability. Man, you don't want to click refresh on 211 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: Twitter and find out something happened to him. No, I'm 212 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: with you on that. Jarvis Landry is a big time 213 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: uh threat in them. Even though he does most of 214 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: his damage as maybe their slot receiver doesn't put up 215 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: a lot of yards per catch numbers. He's a He's 216 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: a guy that is kind of a security blanket from 217 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill. He is certainly important. I'm gonna go to 218 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: the defense of the ball and I'm a point once 219 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: again to the defensive tackle spot and Dominican Sue. Dominican 220 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: Sue not only has to be available, but he needs 221 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: to be a dominant player for them. They were counting 222 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: on him when they made him at the time, I 223 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: think they made him the highest paid defensive player with 224 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: all those guarantees, they needed him to be a guy 225 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: that completely tears it up on the inside. If he 226 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: tears it up, it allows can Wake and Mariot Williams 227 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: to have success. He has to be there because without there, 228 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: they're a little soften to move. All right, this is 229 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a tricky one with the Patriots because there's 230 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: one kind of obvious one. You know, obviously we can't 231 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: say Tom Brady, there's one obvious one that that jumps 232 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: out to me. But I Ronck is obvious one. Right, 233 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: we all we admit that. But man, I think now 234 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: you've got a little bit of depth there, and you 235 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: bring over a really really good player at the position, 236 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: Martellis Bennett. So I mean, obviously you prefer to have 237 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: those guys playing together, but you can get through games 238 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: no problem with Martellis Ben taking over the number one 239 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: tight end spot. I might go to the defense here, Bucky. 240 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Jamie Collins, Oh, nice pick, because of 241 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: everything he can do for them in terms of coverage, 242 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: Uh it turned moving him around, attacking the line of scrimmage, 243 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: the playmaking ability. You can't replace that in my opinion, 244 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: So to me, Gronk is a freak show. I totally 245 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: get that, but I think they could offensively still get 246 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: by with Martellis Bennett. I don't know if there's anybody 247 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: they plug in if something happens to Jamie Collins that 248 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: they could keep that level up. He's a Swiss Army 249 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: knife for their team on the second level. He can 250 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: play tight ends, he can play in space, he can blitz. 251 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: He can also be a factor against the run, very 252 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: very vital weapon on their defense. The other the other 253 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: guy that I would point to would be Malcolm Butler. 254 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler has kind of become their number one corner. 255 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: I believe there's a drop off with those other coiners. 256 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: Even though I like sorrys Jonals coming in, if they 257 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 1: lost Malcolm Butler, I would worry a little bit about 258 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: them being able to do what they do on defense 259 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: in terms of the man to man being able to 260 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: match up and lock him and do some of those things. 261 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: All Right, we go to the Jets man this, you know, 262 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 1: look on the offensive side of the ball with his 263 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: football team. You know, look, I know he's gotten a 264 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: little bit older, but I still think Nick Mangolds kind 265 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 1: of a guy that kind of the glue piece there 266 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: in the middle for this offensive line. You bring in 267 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: a running back here in Matt Forte. The receiver position. Man, 268 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: you've got a couple of big time, big physical guys 269 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: there with Marshall and Decker. You flip over the defensive side. 270 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: The defensive line's got a lot of depth. I'm still though, Man, 271 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: you've got Leonard william Sheldon Richardson along with Mohammed Woks 272 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: And that's a good looking grip there. Oh caw, I'll 273 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: still say Revas. I'm gonna say Revus. I know it's 274 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: a little bit older. Um, you've got some depth of 275 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: the position there, but you don't want to lose. You 276 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: don't have a marquee name in the secondary desk. The 277 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: thing you you eliminate Reevis. You don't have a guy 278 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: you can bust a screen, uh d Millinaire, Marcus Williams. 279 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: You have to have Reeves in the fold. The one 280 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: thing I'll say about offensively, when Brandon Marshall wasn't there 281 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, Eric Deckers struggling in number 282 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: one role, I would say he is the ginger piece 283 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: for those guys that Brandon Marshall isn't there. It puts 284 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: Eric Deck in uncomfortable role and I just don't think 285 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 1: he can produce enough to command a double team, and 286 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: it allows them to blanket the other guys. So Brandon 287 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: Marsha has to be healthy on that premiument, All right, 288 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: I gotta I got kind of a unique one here 289 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: for the For the Ravens, obviously you'd like to get 290 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: Terrell Suggs back healthy and UH and civil high level. 291 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna say Marshall Yonda because when you look 292 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: at their offensive line not very good last year. They 293 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: bring in Ronnie Stanley. They hope he can play at 294 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: a high level left tackle to replace the Eugene Monroe. 295 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 1: But man, Marshall Yonda, you take him out of the mix, 296 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: there is no replacing him. I think he's the best 297 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: UH guard in football, and roster wise, they don't have 298 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: the horses to be able to replace him. So I'll 299 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: say he's the Jinga piece here for them. He's the 300 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: guy have to go with in the middle of their 301 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: offensive line. Sess the table great job of getting to 302 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: push physical, athletic but also very very nasty. Sestatone I 303 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: like to pick. All right, let's move on here we 304 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: did the Ravens. Let's go. I'll let you go first 305 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: here on the Cincinnati Bengals. What you got buck? Cincinnati 306 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: is a tough one because it's a talent the team um, 307 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: but a lot of it runs through their perimeter players 308 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: on the outside. Andy Dalton can't be in a discussion. 309 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say A J. Green. A J. Green 310 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: number one, receiving one of the top five receivers in 311 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: the league, explosive, takes the top off the defense, can 312 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: run all the routes, makes it easy for Andy Dalton 313 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: to do his work because he expands the strikes one. 314 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: I believe they will be lost without him because I 315 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: don't know if anyone else could step up and feel 316 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: that role that he feels that they're number one. That's 317 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: a good one, Uh, the only one other one I 318 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: could think of. Maybe No. I think Ifort just you know, 319 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: if he's not healthy, I think that's a significant drop 320 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: off at the position. They've got some young guys there. 321 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: Uh they're they're you know, good players, but they know 322 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: I mean, but like Effort, but I I'd go with you. 323 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: I think A J. Green' is the one you cannot 324 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: afford to lose their Let's go Cleveland Browns. I can't 325 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: wait to hear your pick on this. Cleveland Browns. One 326 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: guy that can't lose. I mean you still say Joe Thomas, right? 327 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean, how do you not say Joe Todd. I 328 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: mean he's the only He's the only guy that's the market. 329 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: If if I was a team and I'm looking at 330 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: their ross and there was one guy that I could 331 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: trade for, he would probably be the only guy that 332 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: I would trade for. There, he and maybe Joe Hayden, 333 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: and I would go at Joe Thomas overheight. Can I 334 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: give you my uh my under the radar kind of 335 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: a breakout player for them? Though we're talking about Brown's, 336 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: get some good news from Havin. It's not Cody Kessler. 337 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Xavier Cooper, remember him from Washington State? 338 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: Him in the third round last year. He's gonna get 339 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: a chance to play a lot this year. He's got 340 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: some twitch. I just think he's an interesting player. Keep 341 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: an eye on him if you're a Browns fan. That's 342 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: kind of one of my breakout guys there. All right, 343 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers. I mean this is pretty easy, right, yeah? 344 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, and I know we have the 345 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: running back position that we've got a suspension there Leve Bell. 346 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: But this team, you take Antonio Brown off of this off, 347 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: this team change it's a different team. It changes it. 348 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: He is remarkable, um what he can do with the 349 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: ball in his hands. His ability to make plays from 350 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: any spot, any location, anywhere on the feel requires double 351 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: team attention at all time. And not only that, he 352 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: can give you points in the kicking game as a 353 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: punt returner. By far their most valuable player, Martavis Bryant 354 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: not being there either, they could not afford to lose 355 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. All right, that was an easy one. All right, 356 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: that wraps up the a f C North. Let's go 357 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: a FC South Houston Texans. I mean we got with 358 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins is Oh who my kids? J J. They 359 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: can't miss j J. No, they can't. There's not what 360 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: we needed it. We just move on. That's easy, Uh, 361 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: Indianapolis mm hmm. Receivers on all these teams, just talent 362 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: receiver positions. They have some guys that they're they're playing with. 363 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: It's a shame. I'm looking to do defense something like that. 364 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: I like Vante Davis. You okay, playing without him, Davis, 365 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: he's a good player. I mean, I guess I would 366 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: say the ghost t Y Hilton maybe because he's their 367 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: speed guy. But you have Philip Door said, uh, you 368 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: know what, based on the issues in protection, how about 369 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 1: Anthony Costaso. I'm not in love with him as you 370 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: can throw Clark in there. The rookie. You know who 371 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: one of the sneaky ones is the is the first 372 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: round pick? Ryan Kelly? I noticed your guy. I love 373 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Kelly. You don't want me. They need a ride 374 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: that one all the way through. Hey, Bucky, just know 375 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: if he doesn't play well this year, just takes a 376 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: little time to justice. I'll be ready to trot that 377 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: line out. All right, let's go Jacksonville. M hmmm. Look 378 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: at all the all these teams have a stud receiver. 379 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: By the way, I mean, it's the passing game. It's 380 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: all about the pass. Uh. Let's say they're big marquee 381 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: free agent Leaue Jackson. Okay, need need a presidents need 382 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: a president of defense, ode of the ball president on 383 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: the D line. He should come over and give them 384 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: that big money player. So you count on him not 385 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 1: only be the best player, but also to provide some 386 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: leadership based on his winning on a team to have 387 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: arguably one of the best defenses in Football League. Jackson's invaluable. 388 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a guy that didn't play last year. 389 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Dante Fowler. Didn't have him last year. You 390 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: get him this year. He could kind of be one 391 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: of those key people to kind of get this team 392 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: over the hump. Give these pass rush. They need some 393 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: pass rush, desperately need Dante Fowler in year two to 394 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 1: stay healthy and give him that. Um, I'll go ahead 395 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: and go with him. I mean, Allen Robinson's an easy one. 396 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: He's a stud. But I'll go ahead and go on 397 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: the other side of the ball and go with with 398 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: Fowler there, all right, last team in the a f 399 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: C South Tennessee Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee. I'm gonna give you 400 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: some time to think here. I'm gonna just throw out 401 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,959 Speaker 1: Darrell Casey. Good. It's a nice pick, good interior player. 402 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 1: It's a nice pick. He's been in the league five 403 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: years now. How fast did that go? Man? That is 404 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: a nice pick. Because I'm looking at offense ten one, 405 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: Kenda rightn' gonna go Delaney Walker on me. I mean, 406 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: I mean, we could talk about Delanne, but he had 407 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: a really good He's had a really good year for them. 408 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 1: Uh last year maybe even had really the big thing 409 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: about Delaney Marcus Mario to trust him. Those are to 410 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: him in key situations. So either way, I'm gonna go 411 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 1: with him. I like dural Casey, though I'd probably take 412 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: dural Casey if you had to, had to all, let's 413 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: go a Laney's tied for the third highest tight end 414 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: and Madden seventeen. By the way, you're gonna are you're 415 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 1: gonna give us our our speed check test again? Uh? 416 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: Coming up? Yeah, when we get the Man, the Man 417 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: and wheels coming up. The Madden cycles coming up, So 418 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: we'll do it. Okay, Yeah, last last years Perman was 419 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: the fastest. You guys, both guys both missed that, missed 420 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: out on that. How do we miss out on him? 421 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: Because he said it was like who gets to go 422 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 1: first in a draft we were doing on a pod. 423 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: It's the fastest. His tie his tiebreaker was who's the 424 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: fastest player on Madden and and for some reason, great 425 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: video game. Congratulations to c D. Charles Davis, our guy, 426 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: who's right? How about that? That's huge. But the the 427 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: putting of Bishod Parraman with no NFL experience is the 428 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: highest speed rating on Madden was. It was egregious error. 429 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: I wonder what his agility was, because anyone who did 430 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: the scouting then knows he didn't play that four two 431 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 1: four whatever he ran that pro day. Maybe he's you know, hey, 432 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: maybe he's the Uh I'm gonna prove us all wrong 433 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: this year. But we did at maddened questions, I'm coming, 434 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: Madden's right is on his way? All right, we got Broncos. 435 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: All right, Denver Broncos. I am gonna go, say von Miller, 436 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: oh yeah. Oh, by the way, can I tell you 437 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: a little bit about the perils of television? Side note, 438 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: So we did on our pod last week my top 439 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: five defensive players. You did your top five defense players. 440 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: We bounced off. If you recall, I had Von Miller 441 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: number three. So the way this works is I get 442 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: a I get a call when I'm driving in to 443 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: work because I'm gonna do total access that day. Hey, 444 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: uh or no, it was an email, and I didn't 445 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: want to email back I'm driving, So I called back 446 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: and said, hey, what do you need? What's going on said, hey, 447 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna do something on Top five defensive. Who you got? 448 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: So I don't have time to think about this. I boom, 449 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: rattle off my five names. Here's what I got, show 450 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: up to work. An hour later, this is eleven o'clock 451 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: shows at four, I go, hey, von Miller totally escaped 452 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 1: my mind, totally forgot about von Miller. Can we let's 453 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: just put him in there. We haven't you know, we 454 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: haven't had our production meeting yet. No problem. So I 455 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: put my five together with von Miller number three. We 456 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 1: come and do the pod. Right, I talked about von Miller. 457 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: We go to TV right as we're starting the segment. 458 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: This is Live TV. Buck you know this feeling. Hey, 459 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: they couldn't get the graphic changed, so you don't have 460 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: von Miller in your top five? So I like that, 461 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: DJ did that? See you? I'm just saying so, but 462 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: here here's you know, there's two options TV, right, It's 463 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: two options for me right here. I thus, I could 464 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 1: throw everybody under the bus, or or I'm not taking 465 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: that one. You try and be the good human being. 466 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: I'm not taking that one. So what I did, I'm not. 467 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: So here's what I did, and you're so mine pops up. 468 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: I've got Luke kick Lee at five. I've got Earl 469 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: Thomas at four, I've got Khalil Mack at three. I've 470 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: got uh Aaron Donald at two. I had j J 471 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 1: at one. On this list, no, no Von Miller. So 472 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: it pops up. And so what I said is, I'm 473 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the five. I said, Hey, the third 474 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: spot here, I've got Khalil mack Man. I love Von 475 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: Miller and everything he's done in the path. I got 476 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: a reference him. So I don't love, you know, like 477 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: I totally forgotten love. This is kind of towards the 478 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: future a little bit. So I'm gonna you know, it 479 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: was tough, but I ended up going with Khalil mack 480 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 1: in this spot, so I fall on the sword. So 481 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, okay, look it's total access. The season hasn't 482 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: started yet. Maybe this maybe I don't know. Maybe how 483 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: people are gonna watch this a potent. I'm sure I'll 484 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: get hit on Twitter. Some people watch it. I get 485 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: a couple of tweets like how you moron? You know, 486 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: how can you have Von Miller? I'm like, you know what, 487 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: that's fine. I was worth it. Take one for the team, 488 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: but our social department decides to blast out. Here are 489 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: move the sticks top five defensive players, No von Miller. 490 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: And it was a rap for me on social media, 491 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: like I'm out of social media for the next forty 492 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: eight hours. And I wore it. I absolutely wore it. 493 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: So that's a little peak behind the curtain there. Nice 494 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: too nice. You got the one, as they say, you 495 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: gotta pull back the curtain on that one. It's all 496 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: good man, that's fine. I took one for the team. 497 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: All right, did we do we do the Broncos? We 498 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: did the Broncosy. Okay, let's go Kaye case again. I 499 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: mean I look at the receiver position buck and it's 500 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: like Jeremy Macklin. You take him out of the mix, 501 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: and yeah, man, they don't have a lot of touchdowns 502 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: to talk about on that. But I still you go 503 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: to the defensive side, and I think you have to 504 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: have a healthy at some point time, at least for 505 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: the majority of the season. Justin Houston. Jesse Houston is 506 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: my pig. That's what I was gonna say. You gotta 507 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: have a pass rush to someone that can affect the 508 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: passing game. He does that as well. As anybody. He 509 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: really helps those other guys D four Tom Bodley also works, 510 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with him. Oakland is a is 511 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: a quick one, right, and we're gonna go Mac guy. 512 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: All Right, that's easy, I mean that's easy. Uh. Then 513 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: we go San Diego. M M. Miss Keenan Allen a 514 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: bunch last year when he went out, they did h 515 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you could argue he's their best player, 516 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm no, I'm gonna go Jason Varette 517 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: like that one. Keep him healthy. I like that. The 518 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: nice job bringing in Casey Hayward doing the offseason. That 519 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: was a good signing. Yeah, both of those guys. Uh. 520 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen maybe a little more valuable in terms of 521 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is comfortable with Keenan Allen. Uh, Travis Benjamin Man, 522 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 1: Jason Read a guy who can I'm always looking for 523 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: who's the Knicks right, who can voulte into their position 524 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: top He's good, he's the next and he can match 525 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: up with some of I'm not saying look nobody, you 526 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: don't say anybody. I think Tony Brown and you talk 527 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: about he's the type of guy that if you kind 528 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: of build a guy to try and cover somebody like that. 529 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: He's that quick, real quick twitch, really competitive, smart instinct. 530 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: They've had a chance to talk to him in the 531 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: green room when he was here a couple of weeks ago. 532 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 1: He loves ball. He loves the preparation part of it. 533 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: It was uh funny listening to him asked Chris Harris Jr. 534 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: Questions about the preparation part of how to study tape, 535 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: what he could do to take his game to the 536 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: next level. And so anytime you hear a young player 537 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 1: really intrigued by that kind of means they really really 538 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: want to prepare and to that point. Uh TV, I 539 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,959 Speaker 1: don't know if you saw there was an ICE article 540 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 1: on Patrick Peterson and what he did to bounce back 541 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 1: in coming off with the diabetes stuff and not playing well. 542 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: Said he really reached out to a bunch of NFL veterans, 543 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: spent more time he lost weight, lost weight, spent more 544 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: time in the film room really looking at what offenses 545 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: were doing to him, spent a little more time working 546 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: on his technique. So I can appreciate. I just saw 547 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 1: you see him golfing with Nate. Yeah, it's pretty pretty decent. 548 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: Nice nice little swing. He's in the cars too as well. 549 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I mean, by the way, my I'm a 550 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: horrible golfer. I break the old quarterback from San Diego, 551 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: California that can't golf. Nate's words than me. I could 552 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: beat Nate. I'll tell you that right now, after I 553 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: watched three swings, I could get him. I didn't even 554 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: know Nate had an interest in playing golf, and they 555 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: had a lot of He looks the part, though, I'll 556 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: give him that. He looks like he's straight off the tour. Man. 557 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 1: He's going on the East Coast for a little bit. 558 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: Huh yeah, Man, we'll see. But man, congratulations to him. 559 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 1: That's a that's a nice what's that do for R 560 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: and B? We're gonna have to wait and see. I'm 561 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: going into the meeting after this, and I gonna say, 562 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: is that why you are you order ties? This a 563 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: funeral for arm It's a negotiation, let's put it that way. 564 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to find You're gonna have to fund 565 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: to be thinking, Hey, Bucky guy, I'm out. I'm out. 566 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm out. But you'all do good things when you'll bring 567 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: Ran and put Randy R and R I'm thinking it's 568 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: gonna end up being R and t D filling in, 569 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: filling in, Oh yeah, double dip. Hey. Michelle Beetle started 570 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: out as a producer did she worked out for her 571 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: t D taking his talents, dressing up for the job. 572 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: That's why he came. Here's a job interview, all right 573 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys. Who who roll roll through it? 574 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: Let's roll through the cowboys. I mean, I'm I'm gonna 575 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: go with Tyron Smith. I know, um, there's some other 576 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: good options here with Dez and company, but yeah, you 577 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: go Tyr run Smith. I'll go with Travis Frederick being 578 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: able to control on the side. Either way, everything for 579 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: the cowboys happens right up front New York g Man. 580 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 1: That's easy, right, that's easy. He's everything. That's funny. There's 581 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: this is a fun exercise because there are some teams 582 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: where it's like there's no debating it, like this is 583 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 1: the dude. Um, and that was one of them, you know. 584 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: But funny, three years ago, we probably would say a JPP, 585 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: Yeah we need to talk about you were talking about 586 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: he lost his finger and where he lost his mojo. 587 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: He lost more than one. I mean, you lose a 588 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: couple of digits that'll hurt. That's not no. Let's go 589 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Fly, Ego Fly. It's a tricky one here, very tricky. 590 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say kind of an interesting 591 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: one here. I'm gonna go Jordan's Hicks, inside linebacker who 592 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: got hurt last year as a rookie, was playing great. 593 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: But when I just look behind him, you've got Michael Kendricks, 594 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: and Hicks is your starters. I don't know, there's a 595 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: lot of depth there. He'd probably end up Joe Walker, 596 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: maybe the rookie would would be thrust into action. Cox 597 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox is a stud I love Fletcher, but I 598 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: guess you could put I mean that's that's He's obviously 599 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: a much better player there. But I just think criticalwise, 600 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: depthwise there, they don't have any linebackers. No in DJ 601 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: if you're going with the lineback and why would you 602 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: go Hicks over at Kendricks, Well, two different types of guys. 603 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 1: I just think Kendricks is a running, hit guy. Look, 604 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: I was there, I you know, I kind of lad 605 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: the charge when we when we got him, when we 606 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: picked him. But he's kind of a playmaker type. Hicks 607 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: can kind of be that nerve center, get you get 608 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: everybody lined up where they need to be. Instincts, can 609 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: play downhill, can cover covered really really well. Last year, 610 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he was on his way to probably be in, 611 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: you know, having a good case to be defensive Rookie 612 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: of the Year. He got hurt. So I just think 613 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: as an all around player with all he can do 614 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: and being able to kind of bark out orders from 615 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: the inside, I would probably say Hicks a little more 616 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: valuable and Kendricks. Fun fact, Rihanna once had Kendricks as 617 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: her man crush Monday. Really see let's see Higgs pulled 618 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: that off. That's that's that's a challenge. Yeah, this this 619 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: this interesting. On that note, you uh, you keep a 620 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 1: running tally of all of her man crush mondays or 621 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: no wait on my waiting until that pop up happening. 622 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: Maybe when she sees you into tie today, let do it. Well, 623 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: if this was if this was this is an audio pod, 624 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,719 Speaker 1: you know you'd be set. Unfortunately it's audio only right 625 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,719 Speaker 1: now for the tie on. For the tie on, and 626 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: let us see that jump shot, you know flex Fletcher 627 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: Cox is probably if we want to sound smart, we'd 628 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: say Fletcher Cox. I just wanted to point out the linebackers. 629 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: Why your riskins, I'm gonna go off the grid. How 630 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: about Jordan Read. I don't think that's off the grid. 631 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: I think that's money. Yeah, quarterback, We're gonna do it 632 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: all about the quarterback, Kirk Cousins. We could say that 633 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: Jordan Reads emergence as a critical player really helped Kirk 634 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: cost All right, that makes it tough. That's a great one. 635 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say karragain, just because now with still that's 636 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: gone again. Um Man, you take Carrigan out of the 637 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: mix of past rush, you're gonna have to find it 638 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: from Preston Smith and who else. I don't know, so uh, 639 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: all right, let's move on. That's the Redskins in the books. 640 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: Let's go Chicago Bears. Mmm. I'm I'm I'm gonna be 641 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: a little different. I will say, you're gonna go with 642 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: my guy, Oh Pernia McKee, No offense, no, no, no, 643 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: nobody will laugh this, My dude. I'm telling you my 644 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: guys going off fantasy. If you've played fantasy football, just 645 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: remember that I was your guy. Remember I said it, unless, 646 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: of course he doesn't. I don't know who your guy 647 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: is Kevin White.

And that the comparison that Kevin White that 652 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: you hear whispers out of Chicago Andre Johnson. Oh, but 653 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: in terms of a guy that they can't miss, Kyle 654 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: Long is pretty good one.

Speaking of which, um, 663 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: you know, you know Vince Newsom right the Ravens. So 664 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: Vince Newsom played in the NFL for a long time 665 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 1: safety really good dude and worked with him for four 666 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: years in Baltimore. And Vince. When I was there was 667 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: probably early forties maybe, and he would sit at his 668 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: desk with snicker bars and Reese's peanut butter cups. He 669 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: could and this is like, he's not like he's twenty 670 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: year old kid, he's in his forties.

He didn't even do a 673 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 1: lot of working out. And then you'd get done or 674 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: something and he'd be down in the locker room. He'd 675 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: take a shirt off, and you're like, that's not possible, 676 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: that's not humanly possible that you can do eat whatever 677 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: you want and look like that. There's some dudes. Are 678 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: some dude, God bless him? Yeah, gifted? Um, all right, 679 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 1: where you lost my train of thought there? Detroy Lions. 680 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: The Lions ain't Calvin Johnson Gonzo. Uh, I'm gonna say 681 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: for the Lions, Ziggy. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah. 682 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: DeAndre Levy too is another guy he's been hurt. I mean, 683 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: you know, you know who's who's an emerging guy for them? 684 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: You know exactly? Yeah, I know, because everybody's been hitting 685 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: me up about him being a shutdown corner. I'm like 686 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: I need to see it. It's a lot of love 687 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: on the streets. What's this? What's this sailing? He's got 688 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: all the tools. I mean, he's he has everything. Athletic dude, 689 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: big athletic can press. He's active. The main thing for 690 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: him is staying engage, staying focus, need locks in. He's 691 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: had stretches where he completely shuts people out. It's about 692 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: being consistent if he wants to be compared to the 693 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: pet Ps and the Rivuses and Sherman's and those guys. 694 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: You gotta do a week after week after week, and 695 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: you have to be able to do it on a 696 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: big stage when the world, when everybody can see you 697 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,719 Speaker 1: going against a big guy, like on Thanksgiving. You need 698 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: to have one of those Markeee games on Thanksgiving when 699 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 1: everyone sees him. Before the trip, defend hits in, everybody 700 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: takes takes a nap. Green Bay Packers last year we 701 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,479 Speaker 1: saw that offense and not look the same without. I mean, 702 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: I think we have to say Jody Nelson, Yeah it's funny. 703 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: Um what do you think about Clay Matthews in it? 704 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: And yeah coming off the edge Now I like him 705 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: back in that spot. I mean, I still think though, Man, 706 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: I just just having recently seen what they look like 707 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: without Jordy Nelson, I don't I think I'm gonna go 708 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson on that one. All Right, we're rolling through 709 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: here Minnesota. By the way, are you a little bit 710 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 1: alarmed at the hype here? A little bit? We don't? 711 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: We talked about this last week. I'm I'm fueling the hype. 712 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: I'm fueling you got that. I got the kero see 713 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: and I got the got the matching whatever to just 714 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 1: throw it on there because I'm I'm all in on 715 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: the Vikes. I think the Vikes are built to be 716 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: that way. Adrian Peterson to me, is the guy. And 717 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: the reason he is the guy is because right now 718 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: he's still commands eight nine man attention in the run game. 719 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,800 Speaker 1: That makes it easy for Teddy Bridgewater. You remove Adrian Peterson, 720 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater now has to play against more balanced defenses, 721 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: and then he would be challenged to show us that 722 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: he can be the guy that can put it all 723 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: on him. The only the guy was thinking of was 724 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 1: everything Griffin but the nel Hunter At LSU last year, 725 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: their third round pick played really well. I mean he's 726 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 1: not He's not Griffin, but he's a nice player. They 727 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: could get by. What about Harrison Smith Knoxville Boy and 728 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: Dame very good player, friend of the program. Yeah, exactly. 729 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: I will say this, they're loaded. Man. That's a good roster. 730 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a good I mean in a roster. 731 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: Left tackle play better. New stadium, shiny new stadium, new 732 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: digs season. I wish they were playing outside. By the way, 733 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: you're having any like no big college you know, there's 734 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: no big college games at that Yeah, I don't think 735 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: next year, uh have these six stadiums the kind of 736 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: break him in with. They have the super Bowl next 737 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: year too, right, well, Tennessee West Virginia next year, kicking 738 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: off Mercedes Benz and they had the way.

By the way, 816 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 1: Eric read great rookie years since then, just not even 817 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: know if it was a great rookie year as much 818 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 1: as a couple of a couple of good games. Yeah, 819 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: but I yea, let me see a little bit more 820 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: from him. I'm gonna go Bowman, all right, Seattle Seahawks. 821 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 1: This is a tough one. There's a lot to choose 822 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: from on this roster, a lot to choose from. Who 823 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 1: can't we lose Michael Badnet, Oh, he's a stud man. 824 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: Michael bad It jeez. Yeah, I mean that's I mean, 825 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: they still got some of the dudes up front, but 826 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: he is the dude. Yeah. I mean I want to say, 827 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: what about Cam and You've got I mean Thomas maybe, Yeah, 828 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 1: I think I'll go Earl, but Michael Ben I mean, 829 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: just at that Super Bowl. I'll never get that out 830 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 1: of my head. I know they didn't win that year 831 00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: against the Patriots, but I don't care what anybody says. 832 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: He was the best player on that field. They could 833 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: not the Patriots block him. When he turns it on, 834 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: it turns it on. Its like even the Vikings during 835 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: the playoff front last year he was he was dominant talent. Dude, alright, 836 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: last team Todd Gurley rams, I mean this Donald, Aaron Donald. 837 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: We just can't dismiss Aaron Donald like that. I love 838 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, but I'm telling you this offense, how are 839 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: they going to score points if Todd Gurley is not there? 840 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: It's kind of like Eric Dickinson two point. Oh, I'm 841 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: just gonna ride him all the way. He's gonna have 842 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: to have come back, come back, sty toss rights ste 843 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: body right. I think Aaron Donald is the second best 844 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: defensive player in football. I love him, but I mean 845 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: they they you have to score a point to win 846 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,239 Speaker 1: a game, and without Todd Gurley, I don't know how 847 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: they're going about. He's everything. So there we go. There's 848 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: our little ode to Damna Chick. There, Dave. It's not 849 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: we're not stealing. It's imitation's greatest form of flattery, that's right, 850 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: but something we always are in training camps. So it's 851 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 1: a fun little discussion there. Buck. Anything else you're looking 852 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: forward to is camps get in a way when you're 853 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: taken off, where you going, Well, hopefully we can hit 854 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 1: up just Callie over the next week. So I want 855 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: to make sure I see the Chargers, the Rams, the Cowboys. 856 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 1: Maybe I get up to the Raiders. Maybe I might 857 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: give it to debate, you know like that. I uh, 858 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: I'm going out. I'm going out later, so I might 859 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 1: end up just hitting some preseason games. I want to 860 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 1: see these rookies in preseason. I want to see wins 861 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 1: because I don't know how much we're gonna see him 862 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 1: during the year. Can I can I get you to 863 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,319 Speaker 1: do what we used to do for our teams? Can 864 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: I get you to that's the worst? Have vanilla folders 865 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 1: about everyone who plays in the third and fourth quarter. 866 00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 1: So it used to be like let me just we'll 867 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: take people behind the curtain here before uh, the technology 868 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: got out of control. Like now you can pop in 869 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,160 Speaker 1: a player and just sort the plays that he played. 870 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: So even if he was a guard, you wouldn't have 871 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: to watch, you know, seventy plays to see his eight plays. 872 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 1: You would it would just show you those eight plays. 873 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: You can sort it and watch him that way. It 874 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: wasn't like that back in the day with me and Bucky. 875 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 1: So you go to these preseason games, you have a 876 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 1: list of players that you're responsible to watch, which is 877 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: back end guys. So ours was always picked fifth rounding 878 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: later and then some other undrafted free agents or other 879 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: roster bubble guys that could potentially be cuts. So I 880 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 1: don't know, you we always had like twenty guys, Like 881 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: twenty guys on each team. How hard is just just 882 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,839 Speaker 1: tell the people how hard and it's impossible, how hard 883 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 1: it is to as you're watching the game and you 884 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: have you flip cord, you have you notebook or your 885 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 1: fold or however you choose to organize yourself. You're watching 886 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: the game, you need to take a bathroom break the 887 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: first The whole thing is the first half of the game. 888 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 1: You gotta do it all. You gotta eat whatever you Yeah, 889 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,840 Speaker 1: everybody's watching on TV for the first half scouts. We 890 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 1: don't care about the first half because all the regular 891 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,240 Speaker 1: guys we're sitting. Our work all comes in the halfway 892 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 1: through the third quarter. So the way it works, by 893 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 1: the way, it's called a Manilla folder or Vanilla folder. 894 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: Manilla Manilla. Yeah, you got the Manilla folder. So you 895 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: open that thing up and you draw lines on it 896 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: right up in the box, up and down to create 897 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: your boxes. So then you would have the offense on 898 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 1: one side. Then you could and when they slip it 899 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: over and flip it over, you get to their defense 900 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: and you have two of the folders, one for each 901 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 1: team that you're doing. So when I first started doing this, 902 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: man I was trying to take all these notes because 903 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: you wouldend up getting the tape as well, but you 904 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,720 Speaker 1: had to go see him live. So then I finally 905 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: got the system down, which at that point in time 906 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: was I just needed when I left that stadium to 907 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: know when each guy came into the game, so it 908 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: would say that was eleven thirty four. Third queue That's 909 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 1: all I needed. So then when I wanted to go 910 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: back and watch the tape, I would go through the guys. Okay, 911 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: just fast forward on the beta deck and get to 912 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 1: four and I could watch this dude. But man, yeah, 913 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 1: you'd get done. You'd be like sweat and trying to 914 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:42,320 Speaker 1: keep up with it, and then you gotta do special teams. 915 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 1: He's l L L four kickoff in the you know, 916 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 1: only on these two kickoffs in the fourth quarter is 917 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: just like, oh, what a mess. I never was a 918 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: binoculars guy. Yeah, but you had to do it, you 919 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: and you couldn't see who can't because the TV, if 920 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,439 Speaker 1: you're looking up at the TV in the press box, 921 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,919 Speaker 1: you couldn't see who the guys keeping up with keeping 922 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: up with the depth charts. It is a lot. It's 923 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: funny though, because the sports writers are all up there 924 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: in the first half and they're just beating away on 925 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 1: their computers and writing their articles and let's see, you know, 926 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, Philip Rivers just blah blah blah, Ladanya Thomason, 927 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: and we'd be sitting there like just drinking a soda. 928 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 1: In the first half. It's gonna waiting, when is this 929 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: dude gonna get in the game, you know, and then 930 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: what happens. You go back and you write up all 931 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:24,879 Speaker 1: these reports. Inevitably the like three or four like free 932 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: agent guys that you're like, not bad, they make the team, 933 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: you got no shot out of anyways. I remember doing that. 934 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: Antonio Gates, I remember I was doing that in West 935 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: Dad West. Welker is an undrafted free agent San Diego. 936 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 1: So he was one of the guys you watched like that, 937 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:43,520 Speaker 1: not bad on that. Antonio Gason. I remember looking at him, 938 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,879 Speaker 1: Sandy Gason the game that I was at. He didn't 939 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 1: do anything that allegibly that he's gonna be a Hall 940 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,399 Speaker 1: of Fame kind of player. But that's one of those 941 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 1: those guys that are under the radar. Wes Welker left 942 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 1: from San Diego. I think he went to Miami right 943 00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 1: after that. UM, but you're trying to find anybody who flashes. 944 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,720 Speaker 1: The show is just a little thing, and you talked 945 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: about writing when they came in. If there's any notable play, 946 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: you try and mark that down because that can be 947 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,240 Speaker 1: the one thing because you have to write a summary, 948 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 1: and hopefully he gives you something, give me something that 949 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: I can write a summary about what was the name 950 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: of the dude was with the Packers and Cleveland had 951 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: signed him defensive tackle right before I got there. It 952 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 1: might have been the year that I went there. But 953 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 1: he was a late round pick at I want to 954 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 1: say Arkansas State, uh, but he was a good player 955 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: for the Packers. He got big money, uh to go 956 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 1: to Cleveland and then just kind of pull it out. 957 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 1: But he was one of those guys who was you know, 958 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: was a late round pick, and I think they ended 959 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: up even sneaking him down to the practice squad. But 960 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: I had put in a recommendation in Baltimore, was like, man, 961 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,440 Speaker 1: this this dude could help us. What was his name? 962 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:51,359 Speaker 1: He went Williams. Yes, Corey Williams, Krey Williams a call. 963 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: But I mean there's always you know, some of those 964 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 1: guys like okay, not bad. And what you're always trying 965 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 1: to do is you're trying to find someone who flashes. 966 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 1: And that's why the important part win. A lot of 967 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,279 Speaker 1: people say, oh, you hear the writers say preseason game 968 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,239 Speaker 1: are meaningless. They're really not. If you know what you're 969 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,319 Speaker 1: looking for at the late stages of the game. You're 970 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: trying to find guys that can play on special teams, 971 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: especially young guys, because it's cheap talent, guys that you 972 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:16,959 Speaker 1: guys that you can fill out on your practice squad, 973 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: guys who play well enough. We're like, oh, you know, 974 00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 1: I think we may be able to sneak him in 975 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,839 Speaker 1: if he shows a little bit. And that's why some 976 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: teams won't play those guys. Oh yeah, that's the That's 977 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 1: the funny thing too, is you watch a guy because 978 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,840 Speaker 1: you end up having these two teams to the whole preseason, 979 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: so you go see him play once and then they'll 980 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 1: send you the tapes of the other games. So you 981 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,839 Speaker 1: got a preseason game one, you're like, this dude kind 982 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: of flash a little bit that makes to see some 983 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: more of him, and then all of a sudden, tape 984 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: number two shows up, d NP. Huh Take three shows 985 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 1: up d NP. Yeah, I see what's going on. You're 986 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: in a tough spot. You're gonna are you gonna go 987 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 1: to the You're gonna go to the wall for this dude. 988 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: And you've only seen him play eighteen snaps in one 989 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: preseason game. That's hard. The ebs and flows of training camp. 990 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: Gotta gotta love when teams hid him, right you know, 991 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 1: like everybody does it. My favorite, my one of my 992 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: favorite preseason stories was, you know, look, they always say 993 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: that if you have a fifty three man roster, you 994 00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 1: show up to training camp to fifty are already locked up. 995 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: These guys are competing for these last three spots. And 996 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: we had a we had a defensive end that had 997 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 1: like four sacks in the in the last preseason game 998 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 1: one year. Maybe it was three. Maybe he had a 999 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 1: great game, maybe three sacks, and uh, I just remember 1000 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 1: seeing him the next day and he was very confident. 1001 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: He was cut that afternoon. It doesn't matter. So that's 1002 00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: the that's the those are the highlights of the hard knocks. 1003 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 1: You had a great game everything, did everything you can do, 1004 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: or you got a miked up and and they're just 1005 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: all stoked during the game and then hey, don't give up, 1006 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: don't give up.
