Speaker 3: Draft night? What's going on?

12
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 4: John? I'm excited about the draft, excited to be on

13
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 4: with you. It's always an honor to talk football in

14
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 4: Texans with you, and let's do it.

15
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do it.

16
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 3: If you want to check out our great stuff, go

17
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 3: to Houston Texas dot Com. I got a position breakdown

18
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 3: on the wide receivers. Make sure you check that out.

19
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 3: And I want to start with the General with his

20
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: article in General, I'm just gonna kind of open the

21
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 3: floor because your headline of the article essentially it's not

22
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: really a threat, but it's.

23
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: Just, hey, you need to be careful.

24
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 3: Don't expect to Sario and Ryans to ignore offensive line

25
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 3: during the draft. Okay, let's explore that, because they've got

26
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 3: nine picks right now, and you're I don't want to

27
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 3: give away everything the articles. I want people to go

28
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 3: read it, but your thoughts about the offensive line in

29
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: this particular draft when I'll see.

30
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 4: All the mock drafts and all to talk about the Texans,

31
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 4: and I'm like this too, I have them taking a

32
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 4: defensive tackle in a corner or a corner and a

33
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 4: defensive tackle in the second round. I think they will

34
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 4: address safety early on, if not third to fourth round.

35
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 4: But I also think somewhere like they did with Jack

36
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 4: Patterson last year, in the sixth round, we'll see them

37
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 4: taking an inside player and we might see him taking two. Now.

38
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 4: I can't imagine Chris Strausser having a worse first season

39
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 4: learning a new scheme than he had last year when

40
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 4: injuries forced them to start eleven lineman, six different combinations

41
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: and twenty six starts are gone. George fan who was

42
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 4: at an answer to SOS and training camp. George, he

43
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 4: had thirteen Michael Dieters signed to be a backup who

44
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 4: hadn't even played except special teams in twenty twenty two

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 4: with Miami. He had to start ten games and then

46
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 4: Josh Jones started three, so they in a perfect world, John,

47
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 4: we know we'd love to see the Texans have Laramie Tonsel,

48
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 4: Titus Howard, right guard, Shack Mason centered, Juice Scrugs and

49
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 4: left guard is going to be the most competitive, barring injuries,

50
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 4: I think among the offensive linemen, because you'd love to

51
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 4: see Kenyon Green and Kenyon started I think fourteen games

52
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 4: as a rookie just all last season. You'd like for

53
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 4: him to come back and show why they drafted him

54
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 4: fifteenth overall. But Jared Patterson, you know, when he was

55
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 4: pressed into duty, he showed he could play. Then he

56
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 4: went on I R. It's amazing when the season started

57
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 4: and they went over and TOO and then went to

58
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 4: and TOO. They had five offensive linemen on O R.

59
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 4: And Thomson miss three of the first four games. And

60
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 4: so the other thing is they tackles. You know, right

61
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 4: now they've got the first two and then they've got

62
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 4: Charlie Ack. So I think they I'll be real surprised

63
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 4: if they don't draft tackle as well. But after what

64
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 4: through with Dimiko and Chris Strosser went through last year

65
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 4: with injuries in the line, I think that they will

66
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 4: address it, and it also won't surprise him because they

67
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 4: don't sign a veteran because remember George Vant, who would

68
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 4: have thought he'd have been available to come in and

69
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 4: rescue him up front play as well as he could

70
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 4: have possibly played. So they're not ignoring the offensive line.

71
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, and you're right, John, there should be.

72
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Really it kind of goes without saying, but it really,

73
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: I guess needs to be said because.

74
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: We've kind of I don't say we've.

75
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: Ignored the offensive line, but we've talked about not not

76
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 3: just you and I, but just people in general. I

77
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 3: mean national people, local people talking about, oh, well, in

78
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: offensive line. You know they've got needs elsewhere. You know,

79
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: you know, as you mentioned Steven's tackle corner, but you're right,

80
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 3: you know that needs to be a position. As I

81
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 3: in my draft guide, as I went through each in

82
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: every position, I've got kind.

83
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: Of a mid to low priority on the offensive line.

84
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 3: Essentially, Hey, they're gonna look on Day three, that's that's

85
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 3: essentially where they're gonna be looking for some spots. I honestly,

86
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 3: John wouldn't be surprised if one of those fourth rounders

87
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 3: ended up being an interior guy.

88
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: Maybe a kind of a higher.

89
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 3: I don't know the higher level of Jerry Patterson, but

90
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 3: a guy that could play center could play guard.

91
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: You have got a few on my list. You know.

92
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 3: Bo Limmer from out of Arkansas would be kind of

93
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 3: a fourth rounder and could play both center and guard.

94
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 1: Hunter Norsad from out.

95
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 3: Of Penn State and Ivy leaguer who then transferred to

96
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 3: Penn State did a really nice He's another guy that

97
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 3: kind of falls in that category that could give them

98
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 3: some center guard versatility. And they just got to keep

99
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 3: throwing paint on, you know, paint up on the canvas

100
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 3: until they end up figuring out which guy and hopefully, look,

101
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,919
Speaker 3: hopefully it's Kenyan Green. I mean, he's the guy with

102
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 3: the most quote unquote upside, but you just you just

103
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: never know whether he's gonna come back healthy, whether he's

104
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 3: gonna come back healthy and can still play.

105
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: Maybe it's Kendrick Green.

106
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,280
Speaker 3: There's a lot of paint they can throw up on

107
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 3: a canvas, but I think they also are gonna take

108
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: a look at some day three into your alignment, for sure, John, you.

109
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 4: Better get a tackle because when you only have three

110
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 4: tackles coming back and you've had four tackles leave you

111
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 4: better get another tackle, whether it's a veteran and free

112
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 4: agency or a draft choice. Even Austin Deculas started a

113
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 4: game at tackle last year in which yeah, and I

114
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 4: think it was Pittsburgh, so there, and when Charlie Hack

115
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 4: came back from physically unable to perform, Charlie didn't play

116
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 4: as well as he was capable because of the long layoff.

117
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 4: So I think that they'll find somebody inside and outside,

118
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 4: whether it is interior, outside, inside, whether it's draft or

119
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 4: in free agents, because there's still a lot of veterans

120
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 4: out there hoping they're going to get a little more

121
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 4: money than they think they are. But at this point

122
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 4: veterans have to realize if you're still out there after

123
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 4: the draft, you're not gonna give much money.

124
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: And the thing about it is and you, you and

125
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: I both those and you mentioned his name a couple

126
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 3: of times.

127
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: Did we even think about George at this time last year?

128
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 3: But yet he ended up being a really key factor

129
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 3: for this offensive line and really allowed them to move

130
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 3: that this hour until obviously Tyson him getting hurt at guard.

131
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 3: So George took a deal with Seattle, and good for

132
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 3: him and hopefully he made some money with that deal, Johnny,

133
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 3: And there's been a lot of talk about with the

134
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: addition of Diggs. This is kind of a two part question.

135
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 3: Number one and I don't know if we talked about this,

136
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 3: but number one, the Texans essentially lopped off the last

137
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 3: three years of his deal, so he is one year

138
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: in Houston, is guaranteed that we know.

139
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: So, Hey, your thoughts on that.

140
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: B I still feel like receiver needs to be in

141
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 3: the priority list. I don't think just because they've added Digs,

142
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 3: that receiver is off the board from a priority standpoint,

143
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 3: And I think the two of them go together.

144
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: And that's kind of why I'm saying it.

145
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 3: Because Diggs is only here for a year, I don't

146
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: know that you can afford to pass on such a

147
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 3: great wide receiver class in the future.

148
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: So your thoughts on kind of both those things.

149
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 3: Is a contract for Digs being lopped off making him

150
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 3: a one year guarantee, and then also is priority a

151
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: wide receiver well still a priority.

152
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 4: I don't think it's still a priority. They'll probably draft one.

153
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 4: A guy can run like crazy, but if everybody's yalty,

154
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 4: he's not gonna play. And they still got I think

155
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 4: Xavier Hudge now that he has a season under his

156
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,239
Speaker 4: belt is going to be better. We don't know about

157
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 4: John Matchee. He's working out right now with CJ. Stroud's,

158
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 4: tuf On Diggs and Tank Dell. But they better keep

159
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 4: loading up on defense based on the offenses and the

160
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 4: quarterbacks and the teams they have to play with at

161
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 4: first place, schedule, and one more thing about the line.

162
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,559
Speaker 4: When they draft alignment, they're going to get somebody who's

163
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 4: familiar with his own scheme. I think they'll draft a

164
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 4: running back low, a guy who played his own scheme,

165
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 4: and maybe they will find one of those guys like

166
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,440
Speaker 4: the Broncos used to find every year in a low

167
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 4: round or they found with Arione Foster for Gary Kubiak.

168
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 4: But as far as Diggs, I thought it was great

169
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 4: that Serio did that. I saw a lot of people,

170
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 4: oh my god, why would he do that. Well, it's

171
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 4: pretty obvious he wants to get the absolute best he's

172
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 4: going to get out of step On Diggs was not

173
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: a problem when he went to Minnesota. He wasn't a

174
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 4: problem when he went to Buffalo, and I don't think

175
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 4: he would have been a problem here if he had

176
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 4: all the years left on his contract. But by doing

177
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 4: what they did, he will have to be on his

178
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 4: very best behavior because he'll think, Okay, if I have

179
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 4: a great season, I'm going to get a big contract

180
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 4: for a lot more money like my last one. Well,

181
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 4: he'll turn thirty two during the twenty twenty five season,

182
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: and there's not a lot of thirty two year old

183
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 4: receivers that cash in big. So that means if he

184
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: plays well and the Texans want to re sign him

185
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 4: to a won er two year deal, they can do

186
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 4: it and the receiver is going to be making the

187
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 4: big bucks in two thousand and in twenty five is

188
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 4: going to be Nico Collins, whether they sign him to

189
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: an extension now or they wait till after the season

190
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 4: and Nico plays next season like he played this season,

191
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 4: He's going to be paid like a premier receiver as

192
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs was when he signed that contract with the Bills,

193
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 4: I think, and Daggs and Dale and Collins and in

194
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 4: Dalton Schultz. Other than San Francisco and maybe Detroit, the

195
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 4: Texans would on paper have a group afore some that's

196
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 4: as good as just about any in the NFL, maybe

197
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 4: as high as third, maybe even pushing the Lions for

198
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 4: number two, and that's very exciting for CJ's drout.

199
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 3: We all know the Texans have forty two and fifty

200
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 3: nine as of now, we always have to preface that

201
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: with Nick Asio as of now, we preface that, and

202
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 3: of course eighty six. So there's three picks on day

203
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 3: to obviously the draft party that is going to be

204
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: Friday night as a result, because there's no pick as

205
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 3: of right now in the first round, although as Nick

206
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 3: is wont to do, he has he has joked with

207
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 3: me about potentially moving back into the first round.

208
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 1: Which would be interesting, but we'll leave that for a

209
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: different day. So general, I ask you a tough question

210
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: because I feel like you and I are the same

211
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: page on this.

212
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: I feel like defensive tackle and corner are the two

213
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 3: spots that forty and fifty nine. It kind of fits

214
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 3: from a value standpoint in those positions, but it also

215
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 3: fits with what the Texans have on the roster right now.

216
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 3: But they stick with those two second round picks, but

217
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 3: one of them is not defensive tackle corner. It's defensive

218
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: tackle and a different position, or its corner and a

219
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: different position. Which different position do you think that would be?

220
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 4: Well? First of all, I've had a lot of people

221
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 4: I see a lot of mock drafts that haven't taken

222
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 4: a linebacker, and I'm thinking they Demiko loves elzaiir Hedsto.

223
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 4: He led the Titans and snaps and tackles. They couldn't

224
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: wait to get him, gave him a three year contract.

225
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 4: He's not coming off the field Christianaires case. Christian Aires

226
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 4: played great over the second half of the playoffs, so

227
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 4: he's not coming off the field. And you're gonna play

228
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 4: three linebackers about thirty percent at a time, if that much,

229
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 4: especially with these quarterbacks they're playing next season. So that's

230
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 4: why I would not think it's a linebacker. I don't

231
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 4: think it would be a safety because last year it's

232
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 4: they did a great coaching job when your forced safeties

233
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: are Jalen Petree, who had a difficult time in the

234
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 4: scheme till he figured it out, and near the end

235
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 4: of the year, and your second, third and fourth were

236
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 4: what's Houston's name?

237
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 1: I forgot oh dhc DeAndre Houston Carson.

238
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 4: Houston Carson And then you had two others signed off

239
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 4: the street, Adrian Amos and and you're taking these veterans

240
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 4: off in piecemeal, trying to put them together with a mandate. Okay,

241
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: right now, you have Jimmy Ward back. Jimmy's going to

242
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 4: be I think thirty two, and with his physical style,

243
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 4: he misses a lot of time. And he got Eric

244
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: Murray and MJ. Stewart, and I think they need an

245
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 4: infusion of youth if they do like you, and I

246
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,839
Speaker 4: think take a corner or tackle or or tackle in

247
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 4: a corner in the second round. I could see him

248
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 4: taking a safety in the third round, though later than

249
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 4: the fourth round. But if I had to pick one,

250
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 4: I would say safety, the last line of defense.

251
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's interesting to look at safety.

252
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 3: And you mentioned the top four, the top four guys

253
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 3: in the roster right now, I guess you would put

254
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: Jimmy Warre, Jaln Petrie, Eric Murray, MJ.

255
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: Stewart.

256
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 3: Three of the four ended up having injuries and missing

257
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 3: the last part of the season. And they're veterans, and

258
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously none of us are getting younger, but

259
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 3: they're definitely in football years getting up there. And then

260
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 3: Jalen obviously missed what two or three games at the

261
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 3: beginning of the season after he had that injury at Baltimore.

262
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 3: So they brought in Lonnie Johnson, but I think that's

263
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 3: a little bit more for special teams than it is

264
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 3: anything else. And they dropped the Brandon Hill last year

265
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 3: in the seventh round, but that's a seventh round rookie

266
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 3: from last year. So I'm with you general, I think

267
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 3: safety is I don't want to call it the sneaky

268
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 3: hot surprise, but I almost feel like that's the one

269
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 3: I would have gone with as well.

270
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: I I don't think that.

271
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 3: Wide receivers off the table, just because it's such a

272
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 3: deep class that if they find somebody that's got something unique,

273
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 3: whether it's size, whether it's speed, whether it's they can

274
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 3: play running back and wide receiver, you know, do that

275
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 3: kind of thing, that they might you know, jump at

276
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 3: it on day three. You know, I take eighty six

277
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 3: or maybe early, you know, I guess early the fourth

278
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: round would be on day three. But what being I

279
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 3: don't think wide receivers totally and completely off the table,

280
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 3: as long as it's a specific guy, a specific trait,

281
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 3: and a specific thing you look for, Like you said,

282
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 3: with running backs, running backs, the zone scheme ends up

283
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 3: being a big factor. I think they you know, they

284
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 3: probably learned from watching Damien, the struggles that Damien had

285
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 3: in it. They needed to find somebody that had some

286
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 3: experience in that zone scheme. So I think you can

287
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 3: find a little bit of everything at running back. It's

288
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 3: gonna be it's gonna be kind of fun to watch

289
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 3: what they do. But the addition of Joe Mixon obviously

290
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 3: will help.

291
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: General.

292
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 3: I don't know if we've talked about this throughout the division.

293
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 3: One thing happened in Tennessee. One thing happened to Jacksonville

294
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 3: hit the first one as the Titans traded for Lagerious Sneed.

295
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 3: I don't know if we talked about this, but we'll

296
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 3: bring it up right here. They trade for him and

297
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 3: then they give big money to Lagerius Steed. Now my

298
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 3: opinion is Lagerious Steed's a good corner, but not a

299
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 3: great corner. So the Titans have done twice. They've gone

300
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 3: on and got Calvin Ridley, who I think is a

301
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 3: good receiver. I don't think he's a great receiver. They're

302
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: not pat him a bunch of money traded for Steed

303
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 3: give him a bunch of money. I think he's a

304
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 3: good corner, but not a great corner. Your thoughts about

305
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 3: bringing in Steed for the Titans and what you maybe

306
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 3: think that means for the Titans defense.

307
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 4: I thought it was a tremendous move. There's still only

308
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 4: paying him nineteen million a year, which makes him eighth

309
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 4: TIS paid corner, and I think I saw the stad

310
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 4: he had. He covered the opponent's top receiver sixty five

311
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 4: percent of the time, which was like the most in

312
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 4: the league. Now, what they gotta worry about is he

313
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 4: had his best season in a contract right here. Their

314
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 4: GM Ran Arthurn had money to spend, just like Nick

315
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 4: Casario had money to spend, so they wanted to spend it.

316
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 4: And Ridley's not a great receiver. I think Sneid is

317
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 4: a better player than Ridley. I think back to that

318
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 4: first game the Texas beat the Jaguars by twenty and

319
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 4: what a bad game. Readily had had two drops in penalty,

320
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 4: kept getting hurt and so if you got it, you

321
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 4: better spend it. The key is did you spend it

322
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 4: on the right guy? And easy playing in the right

323
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 4: system with your coaches. And so they signed you know,

324
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 4: they got Tony Pollard too. They made a lot of moves,

325
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 4: just like the Texans have made a lot of moves.

326
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 4: The Titans have as well. The Colts have not. They

327
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 4: chose to re sign a lot of their players. But

328
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 4: that's why it's so interesting because these teams have been

329
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 4: in position, at least three of them to make a

330
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 4: lot of moves in free agency and trades.

331
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

332
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 3: Absolutely, the Texas made a trade, the Titans made a trade,

333
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 3: and the Jaguars made a signing. And they're two signings.

334
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 3: They've had three signings that to me stand out for

335
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 3: the Jags. Now, I'm not gonna sit here and tell

336
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 3: you that they're better than Daniel Hunter and the trade

337
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 3: first upon Diggs. But the signing of Eric Armstead I

338
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 3: thought was good in Jacksonville for them. We'll see what

339
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 3: he still got left. He still got to rehab and

340
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 3: get one hundred percent healthy. I thought the signing of

341
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 3: Gabe Davis was a good one. I don't think it

342
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 3: was a great one, but I think it's a good

343
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 3: one for Jacksonville. But they had to sign their own

344
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: and they franchised Josh Allen. Defensive end Josh Allen, not

345
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 3: Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen, Jaguars defensive en outside linebacker Josh Allen.

346
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 3: He had seventeen and a half Sacks. I believe it

347
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 3: was last year. He had two and a half against

348
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 3: the Texans in that win for Jacksonville. Your thoughts about

349
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 3: Jaguars getting that done and the big money they gave

350
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 3: to him.

351
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 1: It felt like general they had to do it.

352
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 3: They needed to keep him. That was a lot of

353
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 3: money and I think they had to overpay to keep him.

354
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 3: Your thoughts about Josh Allen staying in Jacksonville.

355
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 4: I think they did exactly what they had to do.

356
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 4: The guys one of the best pass rushers in the league.

357
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 4: He's insistent. He's never been an issue. He's been a

358
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 4: better player than Trevor Lawrence has. Lawrence hadn't been the

359
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 4: generational quarterback everybody predicted when he came out of Clempson.

360
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 4: Now they're gonna make him, my guess, play another season

361
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 4: before they pay him the big bucks because right now

362
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 4: he has not earned the kind of money some of

363
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 4: these other quarterbacks are getting. But I think getting Josh

364
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 4: Allens bad news for the Texans and the Titans and

365
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 4: the Colts.

366
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't like seeing it, but look at least

367
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 3: the Neil Hunter didn't end up with the Colts ended

368
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 3: up with the Texans. As it was thought with the

369
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 3: Colts at that point. Generally the draft coming up in

370
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 3: two weeks. Got a pretty good idea. Kayleb Williams is

371
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 3: going to Chicago at number one. The Commanders can change

372
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 3: the whole thing depending on what they do, And I

373
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 3: know I have Jade Daniels going there, but it could

374
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 3: be any of these quarterbacks at that point.

375
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: So I'll ask you this.

376
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 3: The Cardinals sit at number four, the top three teams

377
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 3: on these quarterbacks. I think that's pretty obvious, even though

378
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 3: the Patriots went on and got Chakobe Brissett, the Bears,

379
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 3: the Commanders, the Patriots on these quarterbacks.

380
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 1: Do you think that quarterbacks go.

381
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 3: One, two, three, four, presumably meaning that the Cardinals have

382
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 3: traded out of number four.

383
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: Do you think that happens on Draft night?

384
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 4: I think the Cardinals better take Marvin Harrison Junior because

385
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 4: he's the best receiver and Kyler Murray needs another receiver. Now,

386
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: if you trade down too far, you're gonna lose Ramadonzama,

387
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 4: Lake Neighbors, and then who you're gonna get next that's

388
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 4: among the big three. But you need playmakers. I always

389
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 4: talk about Al Davis always said you've got to get

390
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 4: players who can score touchdowns first and filling around them.

391
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 4: And they took an offensive tackle last year in the

392
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 4: first round, and I think they're gonna take him. And

393
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 4: it would it would certainly be interesting if Minnesota's traded

394
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 4: up to five with the Chargers and then at the

395
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 4: last second the Raiders traded with Arizona. That's why they've

396
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 4: got They can't make this trade between Minnesota and the

397
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 4: Chargers untill they see what what the Cardinals are going

398
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 4: to do, or see if they can pay enough to

399
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 4: get the Cardinals out of there. And Jim Arbau, I

400
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 4: don't believe anything comes out of his mouth. You know,

401
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 4: he's talked so much at the combine and the league

402
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 4: meetings about the importance of offensive lineman and media just

403
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 4: eating it up. You know, he wants people to think

404
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 4: he's going to take an offensive lineman. If he does,

405
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 4: it'd be Joe Alt. But if he trades down with

406
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 4: Lake Minnesota, he can still get one of the top

407
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 4: offensive linemen and the top receiver, And so I think

408
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: they hold the key to me. I think, no, we

409
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: know the top three are going to be quarterbacks and

410
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 4: maybe for the top five with JJ McCarthy, and I

411
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 4: still can't believe the way at the end of the season,

412
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 4: based on every game film people saw nobody's talking about MacArthur.

413
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 4: You go on the top of the first round. All

414
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 4: of a sudden, because he's looked good in shorts and

415
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: a T shirt and he sounds good in meetings, people

416
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 4: are saying he could go number two. So it's going

417
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 4: to be a lot of fun to see how those

418
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 4: dominoes follow John. But to me, it starts. It's the

419
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 4: most interesting at four and five.

420
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that stretch.

421
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: There's a part of me general and I don't know,

422
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 3: maybe I'm crazy with this where the Patriots look at

423
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 3: their roster and go, okay, we still don't have all

424
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 3: the offensive pieces that we'd like to be able to get.

425
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 5: Now.

426
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 3: I don't agree with the philosophy of well, the roster's

427
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 3: not good enough to bring any young quarterback. I don't

428
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 3: believe in that, because there was all I talked about

429
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 3: CJ last year. You know, the sections shouldn't draft the

430
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 3: quarterback because they don't have the roster. And then all

431
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 3: of a sudden, people are saying this year, how great

432
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,919
Speaker 3: the roster was, what CJ got plopped into it. But

433
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 3: I have a feeling that the Patriots look at and think, man,

434
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 3: they could field some of those offers. Some of those

435
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 3: offers the Cardinals might get, some of the offers the

436
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 3: Chargers might get. If you want to get one of

437
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 3: the top three guys, maybe call the Patriots. The question

438
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 3: becomes with the Patriots, then okay, can you live with

439
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 3: Jakobe Brissett for.

440
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: A full year?

441
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 3: And they draft a quarterback in twenty twenty five, which

442
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 3: the class is not as star studded as it is

443
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 3: this year.

444
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: I can't see the Patriots doing that.

445
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 3: But maybe that's the curveball, John, in this draft, is

446
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 3: that the Patriots are the team that are willing to

447
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 3: move out of number three. Your thoughts on how crazy

448
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: that might be if New England trades out.

449
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 4: Of three, Yeah, John, I don't see it either. The

450
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 4: only reason they would do that is they if they

451
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 4: didn't have the third and fourth quarterbacks, they didn't think

452
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 4: they could be a franchise. They didn't think if you

453
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 4: put the pieces around them, they can take you to

454
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 4: the super Bowl. You got to get the quarterback. And

455
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 4: if you have to swing and mess a couple of times,

456
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 4: it doesn't mean you should quit, but you have to

457
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 4: get the quarterback. And one of the interesting things about Stroud,

458
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 4: you know, who knew Nico was going to stay healthy

459
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 4: and merge and be a great receiver and he did.

460
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 4: Who knew Tank Dell was going to come in with

461
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 4: a big splash. We kind of thought Dalton Schulz would

462
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 4: be good. You know, Devin Singletary gave him everything he had.

463
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 4: When you think about eleven starting offensive linemen, it's amazing

464
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 4: this team was as good as it was when you

465
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,679
Speaker 4: have all those issues up front. But a lot of

466
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 4: players played their best under the Miko, under Bobby Slowick,

467
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 4: under Matt Berg and and and they just all came

468
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 4: together at the right time. And that's what the Patriots.

469
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 4: They're not going to turn around in one year, but

470
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 4: they gotta admit they're going through a rebuilding process. Get

471
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 4: that quarterback, Let Kobe Bresett play maybe and uh and

472
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 4: then let the quarterback play the second year when they

473
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 4: had more talent.

474
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 3: General asked this question of Mark. I think it was

475
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 3: last week or maybe during the week. I gave him

476
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 3: I basically a game of statement and it was kind

477
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 3: of an over under. I said, Nick Cassario will make

478
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 3: six trades on draft Weekend'll keep in mind, he's already

479
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 3: made the Digs deal. That doesn't count. He's already made

480
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 3: the Mixing trade that doesn't count. Just talking draft weekend,

481
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 3: I said six, and he's like, oh, that's definitely over.

482
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 1: He made nine last year on.

483
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 3: Obviously draft weekend, and of course the with Anderson trade

484
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 3: to get them up the number three. Do you think

485
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 3: it's over under six for Nick on draft weekend?

486
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say under. He had twenty two the year

487
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 4: before three his first year. What he didn't have his

488
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 4: top pick, and so I'm over under. I'm gonna say

489
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 4: he'll make like five, he's got nine pigs. He's sitting

490
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 4: pretty in the second round. Would I'd be interested in yet,

491
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 4: there's a player, whether it's a tackle or a corner,

492
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 4: that's available early in the second round. What he trade

493
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 4: is two and maybe a four. What he traded two

494
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 4: and a four next year? What would he do to

495
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 4: get a player? Dimiko just has to have whether and

496
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 4: I would think it would be a tackle or a corner.

497
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 4: And there's a lot of corners that are gonna be

498
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 4: available in the second round. It just like there's a

499
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 4: lot of safeties. You know, there's no safety in the

500
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,919
Speaker 4: first round. But man, oh man, John, as you know,

501
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 4: there's gonna be a run on safeties in the second, third,

502
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 4: and fourth round, and in a corner's course, man, they're

503
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 4: gonna they're gonna come flying off the board. And every

504
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 4: he talks about the offensive tackles and the receivers, but

505
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 4: my goodness, this is a deep draft for corners. They're not

506
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 4: necessarily as talented as the wide receivers, but boy, they

507
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 4: do have talent. I'd love for the Texans to end

508
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 4: up with a tackle like Johnny Knitton, Bryden Fiskey or

509
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 4: Chris Jenkins and a corner like TJ Tampa, Max Melton,

510
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 4: Maury Lasseter Innes, Rekstraw, guy like that. I'd love to

511
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 4: see him get a tackle, a corner in a safety

512
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 4: with their first three pigs.

513
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting just thinking about what you know,

514
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 3: Nick has said about the trade down in particular of

515
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 3: Minnesota getting to forty two and fifty nine. He was like,

516
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 3: you know, that's kind of a sweet spot in this

517
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: particular draft, and he didn't say it, and he's not

518
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 3: going to, but I will, and you just did it. General,

519
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 3: that's kind of a sweet spot for those two positions. Uh,

520
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 3: there there aren't many at either position. If it's tackle corner,

521
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 3: there's not a Patrick shir Tan Sauce Gardner, Derek Stingley

522
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 3: that's gonna go in the top three to five of

523
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 3: a draft. Defensive alignment, there's not a you know, there's

524
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: not a Quinn Williams who's gonna go number three in.

525
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: A draft the defensive tackle best deveen tackles by Re Murphy.

526
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 3: But there's just a lot of defensive tackles that could

527
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 3: go anywhere from like twenty seven to forty seven. And

528
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 3: you just mentioned the number of those names and corners

529
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 3: the same way. There's not a certain and there's not

530
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 3: a Stingley, but you could start seeing him go the

531
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 3: middle of the round like the Quinnyan Mitchells, the Nate Wiggins.

532
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 3: Those guys case are going in the middle of the

533
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 3: round where the Colts have a pick, the Jaguars have

534
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 3: a pick.

535
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: They need corners.

536
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 3: But then you talked about the guys that could be

537
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 3: there at the sweet spot at number forty two. So

538
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 3: I think it plays out really well for those two

539
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 3: particular positions, no doubt. And we will see what the

540
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 3: Texans do two weeks from tonight. General, I know you

541
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 3: got your article up on Houston Texas dot com on

542
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 3: the offensive line.

543
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,360
Speaker 1: What else you got going up soon?

544
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 4: I've got another one that's gonna be posted on Friday.

545
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 4: And I looked up some stats and it's about why

546
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 4: Cassario signed thirteen defensive free agents, why he's re signed

547
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 4: four defensive players, and why we're talking about him as

548
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 4: well using among his top picks on defensive players. And

549
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 4: it's kind of depressing. The five division winners that were

550
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 4: fifty nine and twenty six and they're playing offenses that

551
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 4: were one, three or five, six and nine, with the

552
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 4: Chiefs being nine and Uh. And it's the defenses they're

553
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 4: playing two, five, seven, nine and ten. And of the

554
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 4: seven playoff teams they're playing, those quarterbacks had two hundred

555
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 4: seven touchdowns eighty five interceptions. But they can breathe easy

556
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 4: because the too lowest paid of those playoff quarterbacks, the

557
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 4: lowest rated for Mahomes and Allen.

558
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: Brutal Jesus could be a monster. Uh, there's no question

559
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 1: about it.

560
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 3: Looking forward to it, and if you haven't gotten your

561
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 3: season tickets, man, you need to get him now because

562
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 3: that home slate is going to be incredible generally look

563
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 3: forward to reading that.

564
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 1: Appreciate you stopping by, my friend. Thank you very much.

604
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 2: you know me, to be honest, Greg football. First, I

605
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 2: have seen the uniforms.

606
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: I saw him.

607
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,680

608
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 2: the uniforms? That's what mattered to me.

609
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 6: And you know that, you know what, And I will say,

610
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,239
Speaker 6: I think we've saw that you know, our players look

611
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 6: a lot better in the uniforms than others.

612
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 3: That's exactly That's exactly Ron players, That's exactly right. Okay,

613

Speaker 3: the review party, but then go into that. But then

614
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 3: I also want you to talk about the process itself,

615
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 3: because I feel like that processes it feels like it

616
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: went on forever and yet not too long.

617
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 2: And then here's what we got. I don't know, talk

Speaker 1: You know.

632
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 6: But I also think, you know, for our fans broadly

00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 6: that aren't able to be there social media that day,

634

635
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 6: we're doing, you know, actually in advance of the party.

636
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 6: So it's I think it's just going to be a

637
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 6: really exciting day and the way that we you know,

638

642
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 6: background of the uniforms and kind of the process that

643
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 6: that it went through. So leading up to the twenty third,

644
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 6: I think there'll be some interesting content for our fans

645
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 6: to really get a behind the scenes look at what

646
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 6: the process has been like. And it's it's been over

647
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 6: a two year process that usually should take three.

648
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: You know.

649
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 6: It really started when kind of not too long after

650
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 6: we brought in Doug Vasiko, who you know, had the

651
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 6: chance to meet and to say, hey, he could really

652
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 6: do some things for our organization. So excited to bring

653
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 6: him in and him and his team that you guys

654
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 6: get to work with every day have done an amazing

655
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 6: job being incredibly transparent. You know, we've talked about this

656
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 6: more than most people. We've involved our fans more than

657
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 6: most people. We've involved every constitute of the organization over

658
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 6: a two year process, and I'm just really excited about

659
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 6: the outcome, and most importantly, Johnny to make sure that

660
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 6: our players, which I know they're excited about the outcome,

661
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 6: wear them with pride on Sundays and you know, collect

662
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 6: a lot of ws in them.

663
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, and there's so much to see that night, that

664
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 5: day social media, and I got to imagine the amount

665
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 5: of gear that's going to flow through here in the

666
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 5: coming months or the following months after the reveal. That's

667
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 5: going to be voluminous.

668
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 2: It will be Yeah, I hope.

669
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 6: You know that's the plan, right, you know, you got

670
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 6: to get it all going at that So there'd be

671
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 6: some merchandise opportunities that night as we move into to

672
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 6: the draft party, which we'll be downtown. We can talk

673
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 6: about in just a second, but we'll have a merchandise

674
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 6: retail kind of a pop up retail opportunity down town.

675
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 6: You always have you know, Houston Texans dot Com. Sure,

676
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 6: all the retail outlets that sell sporting, you know, Texans

677
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 6: gear across the city will be well stocked. And then

678
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 6: the Texans team shop here at Energy Stadium, well, we'll

679
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 6: have it as well. So lots of opportunity to to

680
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 6: acquire the new gear and and and rep the Texans

681
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 6: new uniforms and repdh Okay.

682
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 3: This is more a guilty pleasure question than anything else.

683
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 3: When we sat down with the players, they were unanimous

684
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 3: about a particular jersey that they like more than any other.

685
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 2: Or do you have a favorite?

686
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: I do.

687
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: I do have a favorite. I don't want to say it.

688
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 6: I won't say it, but there is there's and there's

689
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 6: one particular component about one uniform that I'm really excited

690
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 6: And it's just a new way for our fans to

691
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 6: celebrate Houston and and and their connection to our city.

692
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 6: And I think over time it's something that's going to

693
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 6: have a lot of meaning.

694
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: All Right.

695
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 5: So for the draft party, Greg round one. No picks

696
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 5: currently for the Houston Texans.

697
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

698
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 6: We tried to talk to Nick, say, hey, give us

699
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 6: a little heads up, but you know, you never know,

700
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 6: so but right now, no picks.

701
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. He was down the hallway one day and he

702
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 3: saw both of us. He's like, I'm sorry I ruined

703
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 3: your draft party.

704
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 2: Well, we pivot. You know, we're still going to throw

705
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 2: a party.

706
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: Used to do we have.

707
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 2: Seven years we have not had a first round picks,

708
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 2: we know how to get through it. Yeah.

709
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 5: So what about that party, Greg you mentioned downtown here.

710
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, so it's going to be down at the Avenitas

711
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 6: in front of the Georgia Brown. Very similar to we

712
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 6: you know, we were fortunate enough to have the playoff

713
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 6: watch party down there for our game against the Ravens

714
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 6: when we were on the road, and really a great

715
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,320
Speaker 6: partnership with the Houston First and George R. Brown and

716
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 6: the Avenitas folks to kind of accommodate us. So we're

717
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 6: going to do very similar to that, open to anybody

718
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 6: kind of a celebration of the draft and the Texans.

719
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 6: So it'd be Friday night and and versus so the

720
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 6: second third rounds, which I think we have three three

721
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 6: pick and so currently Yeah, and again we all know

722
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 6: and be following. You know, I don't think Nick's gonna

723
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 6: announce it on on X or Twitter, but but but

724
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 6: we'll be following along and you know, have a great

725
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 6: night watch the draft. You know, great engagement from from

726
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 6: all the stuff that makes the Texans event fantastic that evening,

727
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 6: including a retail merchandise with the new uniforms pop up

728
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 6: in front of the Georgia Brown, Greg.

729
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 3: What's been the impact the last couple of years of

730
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 3: doing the Draft Party? I mean, obviously last couple of

731
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 3: years our miller out there theater. First year kind of

732
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 3: felt like, all right, you know, it was the first

733
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 3: time we had kind of done something like that away

734
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 3: from the building, and now we're doing it on a

735
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 3: miller out there theater.

736
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 2: Felt like it got really good reviews.

737
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 3: So when we went back for year two and now

738
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 3: obviously we've picked it picked two and twelve, so that

739
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:41,239
Speaker 3: helps as well.

740
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 2: But what it ended up being two and three, which

741
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:44,440
Speaker 2: worked out pretty well.

742
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 3: What was kind of the impact because it felt like

743
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 3: year two it was like everybody got the fomo, like

744
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 3: they didn't want to miss out on it in year

745
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,880
Speaker 3: two and it was packed.

746
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 6: What was kind of the impact the last couple of years.

747
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 6: I mean, I've said this before. I think the first

748
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 6: year it was really the first thing that we did.

749
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 6: We've talked a lot about fearlessly of all the and

750
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 6: changing and doing things. That first draft party, both internally

751
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 6: honestly with our staff as well as to our fans.

752
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,800
Speaker 6: It kind of to me it was like, you know

753
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 6: the smoke signal, you know, from from the Vatican saying

754
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 6: that there's something changing and and so, and then as

755
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 6: it went to last year, I mean it was it

756
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 6: was an amazing, amazing night. It was somewhat predicated on

757
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 6: having the second and twelfth pick at the time overall,

758
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 6: so I don't necessarily think we'll always do that, and

759
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 6: I think that's you know, this year we're pivoting. You know,

760
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 6: the circumstances are different. I like these circumstances a lot

761
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 6: better because that means we're not you know, if we're

762
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 6: picking it at the top of the draft, that's not

763
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 6: where we want to be. But the energy is just different,

764
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 6: and so we're kind of moving. You know, we're not

765
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 6: afraid to to say, okay, we did that for that reason.

766
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 6: It was it was fantastic. It did create a lot

767
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 6: of buzz the everybody. It was a you had to

768
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 6: be there that night, and it was spectacular. But circumstances

769
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 6: change in a different way. And so like this year,

770
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 6: we've got the uniform party, we got the draft, we

771
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 6: don't have a first round pick, so we're not afraid

772
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 6: to adapt and evolve, all right, So when.

773
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 5: We last left NRG Stadium, it was a game that

774
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 5: no one will ever. Forget a lot of people thought

775
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 5: it was the best Texans game they'd ever been to

776
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 5: playoff victory over Cleveland. Now you have the twenty twenty

777
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 5: four schedule and we're trying to figure out how many

778
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:15,760
Speaker 5: prime time.

779
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:16,879
Speaker 2: Possibilities that we're in there.

780
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 5: I know we don't know yet, but you look at

781
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 5: the Ravens coming in, the Lions, coming in, the Bills.

782
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 2: It's a huge schedule.

783
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 5: Greg, how's it going with season ticket members and the

784
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 5: anticipation of the campaign here at home?

785
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 2: Well, first on the.

786
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 6: Prime time you know, I don't know, we won't know

787
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 6: till kind of early to mid May where we end up,

788
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 6: but I can tell you, you know, interacting with our

789
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 6: folks at the NFL and other teams, I think, you know,

790
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 6: everybody's expecting us to have our fair share of primetime games,

791
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 6: whether here or on the road, and I think everybody's

792
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 6: going to get to know this team. But season tickets

793
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 6: are phenomenal, and you know, we're going to have a

794
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 6: ninety six, ninety seven, ninety eight percent renewal rate kind

795
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 6: of still in that standpoint, we've sold fifty percent more

796
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,439
Speaker 6: new season tickets. I'm very confident we're gonna we're gonna

797
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 6: sell out of season tickets sometime here in the next

798
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,919
Speaker 6: month or two. And you know, the schedule, Like I said,

799
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 6: there'll be single game tickets available when the schedules released.

800
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 6: You know, typically it's the second Thursday in May. They

801
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 6: could move around, so that would be in and around

802
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 6: May ninth. Just to kind of give people something to

803
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 6: point to. But it's the energy from from our fan

804
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 6: base is amazing and really what you know, We're gonna

805
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 6: keep pushing that, you know, for our season ticket members

806
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 6: to use their tickets or make sure they get into

807
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,800
Speaker 6: Texans fans hands and get here early. We the the

808
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 6: energy pregame at the at the playoff game was spectacular

809
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 6: and it's what it should be every game and hopefully

810
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 6: we can get that happen in this season.

811
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 3: If if people out there don't think they have an impact,

812
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:43,800
Speaker 3: I want them to talk to. Daniel Hunter, who was

813
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 3: in this building for the playoff game in cited that

814
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 3: as one of the reasons that he wanted to come

815
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 3: play for his home team. He's from Katie, went to

816
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 3: Morton Ranch. He was in here for that playoff game.

817
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 3: He sensed the environment, saw the environment really right there

818
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 3: and was like Hey, this is this is where I

819
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 3: want to be. I don't know where this greg starting

820
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 3: back from. I guess the time Demiko was hired. Going forward,

821
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 3: there were so many moments.

822
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 2: In the season.

823
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 3: Out of the season, it really felt like it came

824
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 3: to a head Honors weekend, right for the Super Bowl,

825
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,760
Speaker 3: when Will and CJ win Offense Defensive Rookie of the Year.

826
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 2: And DeVico should have won Coach of the Year but

827
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 2: have robbed.

828
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 3: But then Andre Johnson goes into the Hall of Fame,

829
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 3: something that's never happened for a Houston Texan. That's happened

830
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 3: obviously for the other organization, but it's never happened for

831
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 3: the Houston Texas.

832
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 2: What does that meant for the organization?

833
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 3: And we don't know much about what the season is

834
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 3: gonna bring, where we're gonna play all that, but we

835
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 3: do a one game. We do know we're gonna play

836
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 3: that game August, first Hall of Fame game against the Bears.

837
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 3: What are your thoughts about just all that in general

838
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 3: and Drake going in, Well, it to me, it's it's

839
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 3: the way it should be, right, I mean, Andre being

840
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 3: it was a first Ring of Honor member. Now the

841
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 3: first Texans Hall of Famer and what he represented this

842
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 3: organization starting in two thousand and three in his time here.

843
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,359
Speaker 6: It's just immeasurable, so to and he's such a good guy.

844
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,879
Speaker 6: You know, he's not a guy who's going around and saying, hey,

845
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 6: look at me. You know, I should get all this stuff,

846
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 6: and we all know how how he is and how

847
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 6: he's handled it. So to celebrate him and to have

848
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 6: our fans have the opportunity to celebrate him and to

849
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 6: be a part of that weekend, to get to play

850
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 6: in the game on Thursday and the enshrinement on Saturday,

851
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 6: and really just to celebrate him, all the players that

852
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 6: he was connected to and what what he's meant and

853
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 6: what this represents for organization to to finally be represented

854
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 6: in the Hall. And you know, again, I've always, like

855
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 6: John Madden says I, you know, at least now we're

856
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 6: represented in the conversations of the Bust at night and

857
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 6: they can talk about Texans football in there, and you know,

858
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 6: maybe Andre can Can can talk about the catch over

859
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 6: Washington or Miami or you know, him flipping over the

860
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 6: guy against the Vikings or whatever. But I'm just so

861
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 6: excited that that that bridge has been crossed for organization.

862
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 6: It's another first and he's the guy, you know who

863
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 6: should represent us.

864
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 2: In that way. And it was an amazing, amazing night.

865
00:40:59,360 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 2: All Right.

866
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 5: You know, I'm always gonna throw something at you. So

867
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 5: here it is road schedule. You can only go to

868
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 5: one of these three games. You have to pick at Dallas,

869
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:15,240
Speaker 5: at Kansas City, at green Bay, pick one to attend

870
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 5: Greg you only can go to one.

871
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 2: I know you're going to be at all of them.

872
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 2: It's time of year ago.

873
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 6: Well, so people ask me all the time, is what's

874
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 6: the best venue to you? If you have to go

875
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 6: to one venue in the NFL, where would you go

876
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,959
Speaker 6: other than a n RG stadium? And it's It's lambeau Field.

877
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 6: I mean that, there's just it's it's the most unique

878
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 6: experience in the NFL and what they do there and

879
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 6: how they celebrate the history of the Packers, but the

880
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 6: history of the game really with the Hall of Fame,

881
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 6: and it just feels a little different. So I would

882
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 6: say that notwithstanding, So I'm gonna say that, and then

883
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 6: I'm gonna choose someplace different. There's nothing like beating the

884
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 6: Cowboys in Dallas, and I think that's where I want

885
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 6: to be because that's what I want to happen, and

886
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 6: I want to be there when that happens.

887
00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,440
Speaker 5: Twenty fourteen was an amazing atmosphere.

888
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 2: Correct, we had that game. I have a video.

889
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 6: We unfortunately didn't pull it out in the end, but

890
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 6: I have a video on my phone from being that day.

891
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 6: There were more Texans fans there than Cowboys fans when

892
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 6: we scored a touchdown, all the red in the stadium

893
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,760
Speaker 6: and Tony Romo going to the silent count. It's one

894
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 6: of the great days in Texans history that for a

895
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 6: game we didn't win.

896
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and with a team that wasn't as good as

897
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 3: that fourteen team was, we should have won the game

898
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 3: in twenty two, Yeah, we should. We should have had them.

899
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 3: But you know, Dalton Schultz had to step up and

900
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 3: make some place for the Cowboys.

901
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 6: But really, any I mean obviously, you know, going to

902
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 6: Kansas City, that's always a tough place, and that could

903
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 6: be kind of a little bit of a measuring stick game.

904
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 2: So how about all of them?

905
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 5: Mark, I agree, all of them, let's go. Let's go

906
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 5: to Gillette Stadium. I don't care who's coaching or playing

907
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 5: for them.

908
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 2: I want that one bad. Yeah, Gillette Stadium. Yes, I'd

909
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: crossed that one off the list too. So any place

910
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 2: where we can get a w that's where I want

911
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 2: to be exactly. Greg, thanks a lot for being with us.

912
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 3: Thanks guys, always a blast when the pres comes by.

913
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 3: He's fun, he's good Radio two man. I love having

914
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 3: him on the air. He gets anything and everything, and

915
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 3: then of course he can also break my balls because

916
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 3: of the whole uniforms and all that. But it was

917
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:08,720
Speaker 3: great to talk about that process.

918
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued by the process.

919
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 3: I just you know, people get all excited about I'm

920
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 3: curious about this uniform revealed party. I'm sure Mark and

921
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 3: I'll be doing something there. Radio wise, well, we're supposed

922
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:21,600
Speaker 3: to be on the air from six to seven. I

923
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 3: think goes from six thirty to nine thirty, so we'll see.

924
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: We'll see how it goes. But it's gonna be a

925
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:26,960

Speaker 3: thing is like the parts that I heard, is gonna

947
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 3: be absolutely fantastic.

948
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:36,360
Speaker 1: All right around the world of the NFL, the Cleveland

949
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 1: Browns and Nick Chubb have reworked their contract. We reworked

950
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: his contract for twenty twenty four. I'm curious to see.

951
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 3: What Chubb has when he comes back with the Browns

952
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four, it's gonna be interesting. Texans won't

953
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 3: play them unless we see them in the playoffs again.

954
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 2: It was nice to see them last year the playoffs.

955
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting if it's this year.

956
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 3: If one Deshaun Watson's playing, But Nick Chubb reworks this deal,

957
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 3: so he's for twenty twenty four. From a legal side

958
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,680
Speaker 3: of things, and I kind of hate doing this, but

959
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:14,320
Speaker 3: it's just facts. Rashi Rice, Chiefs wide receiver, there's a warrant,

960
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 3: the rest warrant issued by the Dallas Police Department in

961
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 3: regard to a serious bodily injury crash. If you missed it,

962
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 3: I think it was not this past weekend, but the

963
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 3: weekend before. He was in a chain reaction collision as

964
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 3: it's called, evolving a Lamborghini that he was driving in

965
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 3: four other vehicles.

966
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 1: So then they left with minor injuries. Now nobody died

967
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: and that's good, but she Rice could be in some issue.

968
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 3: And where that brings the Texans into play is if

969
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 3: he ends up being suspended. Did the Texas play the

970
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:52,279
Speaker 3: Chiefs early in the season and Rashie Rice is not there?

971
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:57,280
Speaker 3: Now it'll they'll find their way without Rashie Rice because

972
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 3: it's you know, it's Patrick Mahomes, but you get my drift.

973
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 3: Just having one piece out of that machine could help.

974
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 3: But we'll see what takes place there. Josh Allen I

975
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 3: mentioned this to the General. Josh Allen, defensive end pass

976
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 3: rusher for the Jacksonville Jaguars, agrees to a big deal

977
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 3: five years. I think with one hundred and eighty million,

978
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 3: I think that was the number. That's a massive number.

979
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 3: Good grief, that is a crazy massive number. But Josh

980
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 3: Allen staying with the Jaguars dow he would. He's a

981
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 3: franchise tag player, so he was gonna be there more

982
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 3: than likely, and the Jacks weren't gonna trade him, so

983
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 3: he was gonna sit out or is gonna play at

984
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 3: least one year.

985
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,800
Speaker 1: Now he's signed for the next five, so good for

986
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. They made some crafty moves this offseason. That's

987
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:40,879
Speaker 1: some good things.

988
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 3: As the general talk general and I talked about it,

989
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 3: Gabe Davis, I'm the greatest, but a good move.

990
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 1: Eric Armstead a little bit older, but a good move.

991
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 1: They needed help inside and.

992
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 3: Now going out and making sure that Josh Allen Is signed.

993
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 3: So a few good moves there by the Jaguars. And

994
00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:00,280
Speaker 3: then from the historical aspect of the NFL. OJ Simson,

995
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 3: former NFL running back Bills forty nine ers.

996
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: If you remember him from that, well good on you.

997
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:09,399
Speaker 1: He passed away at seventy six.

998
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 3: Most people remember him for what happened in Los Angeles

999
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 3: June seventeenth, nineteen ninety four.

1000
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 1: Actually it was five days prior to that, but you

1001
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 1: remember him for that. But no news is news, and

1002
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: sometimes you don't want to talk about it.

1003
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 3: I don't want to report it, but Oj Sipson has

1004
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 3: passed away due to cancer at the age of seventy six.

1005
