00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,360

Speaker 1: the first round was on Thursday. Rousseau, just after you

15
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: find out about him, he just jumps off the page.

16
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: His DNA is as a perfect match for Sean and

17
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: Brandon and what they all want. I mean, it's just

18
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: and then you get this this other guy. I didn't

19
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: know it about Spencer Brown. I'm laughing because now I'm

20
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: a guy five nine and I never even you know,

21
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: people now even come up and he say, hey, Steve,

Speaker 1: you look great. You look like you still play. Listen

23
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: on my best day. I didn't look like I could

24
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: play on my best day. When the Bills get off

25
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: the bus this season, oh yeah, it's like it's a

26
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: freak show. Brown. They're like, oh my god, Doyle Rousseau

27
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: to send the three rookies off the bus first, and

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: then Josh and Tremaine. Yeah, it's unbelievable. How big these

29
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: guys are gonna be. Not tall, tall, I mean that

30
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: they got. They got a forest of trees. You cannot

31
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: coach height. Everything else can fix, you can fix. Yeah,

32
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: you can't coach height. And these guys they are goodness gracious.

33
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: Somebody asked me they are they doing that because they

34
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: got a tall quarterback and they can go. I go,

35
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: not really, I mean on the edges, on the corners

36
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: and both tackles. You can go as tall as you want, right,

37
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: but goodness gracious, every guy out there was length was

38
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: a priority. I don't think there's any question about that.

39
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: And I'm all about it, man. And you know, people,

40
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: they went D line, D line, old line, old line.

41
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: First four picks were you, I mean, were you in

42
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: your were you in heaven after the d I mean,

43
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: do you ever get Do I get ever to get

44
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: tired about being right? I don't know if I do.

45
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 1: I may be wrong. Do you get tired of me?

46
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: I may be wrong, but I don't think so wrong.

47
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: But I doubt it. Yeah, it's true. I'm all. I

48
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: love it because all the stuff we heard about the

49
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: running back in the first round, I'll come on. You

50
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: know my favorite quote of the entire weekend Brandon Bean

51
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: our interest in a running back? I think that was

52
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: over quite a bit. I totally agree. I loved it,

53
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: and I know people, I soaked it up like a

54
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: sponge I put. I looked at it from many different angles.

55
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: I put it back down, I turned it a little,

56
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: looked at it again, and I said, oh my god,

57
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: look at it. I put that un put that up

58
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: on the mantel so I can look at that. Was

59
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: so delicious. It's true. Um, I listen, I love great

60
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: running backs. Um, but you know, listen thirteen. I think

61
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: I just read that. I've got this little list of

62
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: little fun things on you put out some fun facts.

63
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: If you look at the last you know whatever. However,

64
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: many Heisman Trophy winners. All of them have gone in

65
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: the first round except one. Thirteen of the last fourteen

66
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy winners, we're all selected in the first round.

67
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: What are we talking about running backs? Now, we're talking

68
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: about Heisman trophies. Okay, Thirteen of the last fourteen Heisman

69
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: Trophy winners were all selected in the first round except one.

70
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: Who would that be? Except one? The Heisman Trophy winner

71
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: in the last fourteen years who was not selected in

72
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: the first round. What what player was? Oh? Wasn't it

73
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: that quarterback from Ohio State, um who went to the Ravens?

74
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: The hell was that? Kids? Now it was not all

75
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: right because he was like a third round pick. That's

76
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: that's not the guy thirteen to the last fourteen Heisman winners.

77
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: Of course, this year's Heisman Trophy winner was Jalens DeVante

78
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: Smith pick tenth overall bards through the Heisman Trophy winner

79
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: that was not selected in the first round of the

80
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: last fourteen he was selected in the second round. In

81
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, it was Derrick Henry. Now, certainly you can

82
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,239
Speaker 1: make the case like, wow, man, you know he should

83
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: have picked him in the first round. The way he's

84
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: playing now, and how many years to take him to

85
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: get on the field in Tennessee. Second thirty. Yeah, it

86
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: was his second or third year before he actually became

87
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: the guy. And that was a new head coach that

88
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: came in. I mean, so, I'm Brandon Bean, just trust

89
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: the process, Bruce Leeve, That's all I can say. I'm yeah.

90
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: I think they added depth and competition to the roster,

91
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: both interior. I'm talking about the offensive line, the depth

92
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: and competition to the interior of the offensive line, the

93
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: tackle spot of the offensive line. And after what they

94
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: did last year and what happened with Quentin Spain, you know,

95
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: I don't there's nobody on that offensive line that's gotta

96
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: be saying now, I'm not gonna I'm all right, you know.

97
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: And that's just how the coaching staff likes it. That's

98
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: how they want it, man, That's how they want it,

99
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: and they're gonna get it. Greg Rousseau, if you haven't heard,

100
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: the six seven edge rusher from Miami moved all over

101
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: the place, opted out this last year after having fifteen

102
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: and a half sacks the year before, nineteen tackles for loss.

103
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: M big physical freak of a guy who made a

104
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: lot of plays in twenty nineteen. With his athleticism, he'll

105
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,279
Speaker 1: have to be better technically to be that productive at

106
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: the pro level. But from what he's displayed in his

107
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: personal life and his professional and his football life, he's

108
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: the kind of guy that will want to do that.

109
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: A lot of fun stuff to think about with these

110
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 1: new guys coming in. But man, oh man, that almost

111
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: all of these guys are as tall as a tree.

112
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: They're unbelievably big. So I'm I'm way excited about it.

113
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: I'm I like the way the team's shaping up. I

114
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: like the draft class. I can't wait to see these

115
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: guys on the field. I don't know how long it's

116
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: gonna take. We just heard today that Greg Russou is

117
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: going to wear number fifty. Yeah, for the Buffalo Bills,

118
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: number fifty. He's gonna be a down line with a

119
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: hand in the dirt wearing number fifty. Good for him.

120
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of neat. Do you think it's

121
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: because he's so long and lean he chose a fat number, right,

122
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: make him look a little wider. Totally with you. See,

123
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: I wanted to wear a single digit number because there's

124
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: legitimacy to that, right, Yeah, that is a fat number.

125
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: Like Roscoe Parish wore eleven, hoping it would make him

126
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: look taller. I guess the same with me. I always

127
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: want to wear I was want to wear a single

128
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: digit because it make you look a little bigger, bigger,

129
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: you know, a little taller. Yeah. Um, I could never

130
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: got a chance to do it. I kind of wore

131
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: fat number two. But yeah, fifties. Fifties a heavy number,

132
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: isn't it right? Yeah, it just looks wide. Yeah, it's

133
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: got that you know. Yeah. I like it. Nice round

134
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: number two. Yeah, I'm loving it. Yeah. And as much

135
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: as we're talking about line, I mean, don't sleep on

136
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: Jackie Anderson, I mean their seventh round pick, the last pick,

137
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,240

00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: noticed some great names in this draft. Deals Shot Wild Ghosts,

159
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: does some stuff, we gotta tell Murf you better start

00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: getting ready. Now, get the call ready, you know, or

161
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: something like the goose is loose. I mean, you know

162
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: what's HiT's coming. He's gonna have a field day. That Yeah,

163
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: that's good. And uh, I like what he brings. He's

164
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: kind of a hybrid. He's a special teams guy as well,

165
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: oh he's he is tailor made for for Gunner, isn't he.

00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: I mean he runs a four four one and long,

167
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: tall guy like well five ten, Yeah, but yeah, that's

168
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. Everybody's six eight now five ten,

169
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: doesn't it doesn't really register on the meat, doesn't doesn't

170
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 1: really move that needle. Uh. Damian Damien Hamlin, Damar Hamlet,

171
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: the Damar Hamlet. I'm sorry, I can't read my own handwriting.

172
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 1: DeMar Hamlin's safety grew up with Dane Jackson, same neighborhood,

173
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: the same their buddies. Yeah, they grew up together. That's

174
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: kind of How about Marcus Stevenson, He not only was

175
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: roommates with at Oliver at college, he was the best

176
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: friend of Tredavious White's younger brother. They grew up together,

177
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: him and his younger brother, him and Tredevious White's younger

178
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: brother best friends. That's gotta be Is that nuts? Like

179
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: he grew up in Treveport looking up to Tredevius. Now

180
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 1: they're on the same team in the NFL. I mean,

181
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: is that crazy? That's that's pretty cool, that's very and

182
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: there's a ton of those connections. I wrote about it

183
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 1: on Buffalo Bills dot Com in the ten Final Observations

184
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 1: on the Bills Draft, some of those connections are just uncanny.

185
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: Aj FP Andessa was talking to Boogie Basham all through

186
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: the draft process last year. I don't know how they

187
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: struck up an acquainted teammates. They right, well, Basham's at wake.

188
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, they see where were they All Star

189
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: Game or something? Where was I thought? I can't remember

190
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: the anyway, they connected in some way, shape or form

191
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: last year during the draft process and stayed in touch

192
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: even through the football season. Kind of text for I

193
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: took it for granted they were teammates at some point,

194
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: but that you're right that don't think that's true. I

195
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: don't think they are. But because they did have that,

196
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: that's the big deal. They have a relationship. Yeah. And

197
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: then Tommy Doyle, the fifth round pick who's six eight

198
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: three twenty he played against DJ in twenty nineteen. Yeah,

199
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 1: and and did Okay, that was his first game actually

200
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: right first start at left tackle, because his first two

201
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: years he played right tackle for Miami University, last two

202
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 1: years left tackle. That was his first start at left tackle. UM. So, yeah,

203
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: the first four guys the Bills pick Carlos Boogie Basham

204
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: six four two seventy four, and he prefers boogie, so

205
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: everybody knows. So Boogie Basham is six four, two seventy

206
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: four is a like a dwarf compared to Greg Russeau,

207
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown, and Tommy Doyle. They're all dwarf. They're all

208
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: six eight and sixty seven and Carlos Basham's a small

209
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: guys sixty three. Uh yeah, I'm thinking you're where I

210
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 1: see a trend. That's all I can say. Yeah, Um, well,

211
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: the try. I mean you remember they had Trey Trey

212
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: Alan last year on a practice squard out of Washington.

213
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: The kid who retired this Trey Adams, Trey Adams, who

214
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: was also six eight. Um there, yeah there, that says

215
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: something to me. I'm picturing a goal line formation, Steve,

216
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: and I know I mentioned this to you. You've got

217
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: your Justin Zimmer prediction in the backfield is a full

218
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: ball of it. As an up man, I'm gonna throw

219
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: this one at you just for goal line, Okay. On

220
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: a game day, right Spencer Brown at left tackle, Tommy

221
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 1: Doyle at right tackle, Dion Dawkins at left guard, and

222
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: Daryl Williams at right guard because he's played there right

223
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: right there, with those three people, you've got almost thirteen

224
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: hundred pounds of man, and put Justin Zimmer at fullback

225
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: right nobody's touching Josh Allen. You know how we've talked

226
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: even the last couple of years about consistently re setting

227
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. Obviously, in twenty eighteen it just

228
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: flat out didn't happen because they weren't good enough. Twenty

229
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: nineteen they bring all the guys in, four new starters

230
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: with Dion and it gets considerably better. But I think

231
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: there were even a few spots here and there last

232
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 1: season where resetting the line of scrimmage was not up

233
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: to the standard that coach McDermott wants week in and

234
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: week out. Bringing these guys in is as an alarm bell,

235
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: I think to everybody on the roster, like, hey, if

236
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: you vets aren't going to take care of this, you

237
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: got a bunch of yeah, you got a bunch of

238
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: six five tight ends, got a bunch of long wide

239
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: outs as well. Now I mean further down the rank,

240
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: further down the list, but yeah, I mean, yeah, you

241
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,440
Speaker 1: could go very heavy and now you know they'll have

242
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: us they could have a certain personnel. I was already thinking,

243
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: like Dable's already got his gon light package, said like,

244
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, giant human being on the field, Yes, right,

245
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: what's you know what I mean, we're not even talking.

246
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: Ford goes three thirty, Like you gotta and say you

247
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: say something like, you know, eat jumbo. You can call

248
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: it jumbo, but that doesn't even do it justice. You

249
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: can beat Sequoia or something. You know, red that's yeah,

250
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: there's your I like it, Redwood. There's your Redwood pack.

251
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: There's your package, your Redwood package. I mean, it's think

252
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: about that huddle. Thinking that huddle. It's so insane that

253
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: you can't help but laugh. Like, these guys are gonna

254
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: come out on the field. Just think about this for

255
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: a second. In the NFL where it was where it

256
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: is hard for anyone to look abnormally large. They're gonna

257
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: roll those guys out on the field, and the other

258
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: team's gonna be like, are you kidding me? Huh? I

259
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: know you got seven of these guys, Like what like

260
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: or think about this? Just keep your starting offensive line

261
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: the way it is, you know, Dion Yeah, presumably Cody

262
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: Morse Feliciano Williams. And now you got two tackle eligibles

263
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: or tight end eligibles, Brown and Doyle. They brush their

264
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: hands on their chessa I'm eligible. You get lined up,

265
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: you know, and they're you know, they're lined up with

266
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: your five ten nickelback all suddenly, god oof, that is

267
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: so tasty. It's unbelievable, and it's really and day balls

268
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: are like they gotta be laughing at that too. I

269
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: mean they'll laughing like, hope, are we really gonna do

270
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: And then then he's gonna do it. Yeah, here's the

271
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: thing though too. Then the Spencer Brown, the offensive tackle

272
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: from Northern Iowa, his three cone drill sub sevens. Yeah.

273
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: And he's a hoops player. Yeah. And and when you

274
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: talk to guys about who one thing that hoops players

275
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: can do is they can handle the ball. You know,

276
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: when you throw it up there, they grab it right. Um,

277
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: it's a great red zone opportunity for a guy who's

278
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: who's really athletic. His three cone drill was elite for

279
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: his size, was unbelievable. He's better than a lot of small,

280
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: shifty guys. Um, he's a tall guy with great feet.

281
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: He's got that basketball mentality. Um he does. He does

282
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: scream that like this versatility thing, like where you can

283
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: use him in packages that would catch another team in

284
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: a complete mismatch. You want short yardage, that I'm telling

285
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: you right now. So Northern Iowa is a run first offense, right,

286
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: so you need a yard right, I mean you bring

287
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: him in Doyle on the field and say get him. Also,

288
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: he's been try and stop us. This guy Spencer Brown,

289
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: any bench like five hundred pounds, benches five hundred, five

290
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: hundred pounds. So here is the thing. Boogie Basham was

291
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: on somebody's All Freaks list because he benches like four

292
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: to twenty and squats over seven hundred. Bookie Basham does. Meanwhile,

293
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,199
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown benches five hundred and squats I want to

294
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: say six fifty. So Bashim's got him beat on squats.

295
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean you want to talk about get off, bash

296
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: him off the line, squat and set over seven hundred.

297
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: Like the Spencer Brown's doing this thing where what is

298
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: it like a fifty six inch box jump. Well here's

299
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: the thing about Brown, Like people are like, oh, yeah,

300
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: that's great. He played basketball all state and he's really

301
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: in basketball. I mean, twenty points a game, eighteen boards

302
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: a game. Now all state. Let me just say that,

303
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: I know he's playing in Iowa, but he played in Lenox.

304
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: Iowa's a little bit like my hometown. My hometown was

305
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: like fifteen hundreds, exact same thing. They played eight man football.

306
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: We actually had enough when I was going to high

307
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 1: school to play eleven man football. But now they don't.

308
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: And so I kind of get that. You know, if

309
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 1: you've got a six to eight kid, he's gonna stick out. Yeah,

310
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: in Iowa, he's playing against other farm kids who aren't

311
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: sixty eight, right, right, And so I get that. But nevertheless, biggest, big, biggest,

312
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: big an athletic is big athletic is something as well.

313
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he does seem to have some athleticism

314
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: that most guys let size. Well, that's what and that's

315
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: what Brandon being said he brings. We see versatility in him.

316
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: They even see versatility in Tommy Doyle, the fifth round pick,

317
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 1: the other tackle. They see versatility in both of The

318
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: interesting thing is, and when you see left tackles and

319
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: right tackles around the league that are really good, the

320
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: one thing they say about the really great ones is

321
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: he's really at an athlete, you know, as big as

322
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: they are, as heavy as they are, as whatever their

323
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:43,239
Speaker 1: body type is. Um, that's what they say about him.

324
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: The guy here who went to Philly as the left tackle,

325
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: Jason Peter, Jacob Jason Peters. He was an athlete. He

326
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: was an athlete and drafted as a tight end, that's right.

327
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 1: And he was running like a sight at three twenty.

328
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: I thought it was even faster than that. For I

329
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 1: remember it. I remember because I was I was there

330
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: at the company he ran. But that kind of athleticism

331
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 1: set you apart at the offense, on the offensive line,

332
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: as well as does every other position. So you're not

333
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: just a big body guy who's you know, kind of

334
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: backing up. You got to run around this big block.

335
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: These guys are athletic and their feet move and they

336
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: can move side to side. Um, that's what sets him apart.

337
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: That's why the upside for these two, you know picks

338
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: the Bills made, you know, Spencer brown Tommy Doyle are

339
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,239
Speaker 1: so much on the upside if you look too at

340
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: what think about this Brownie. In the first two rounds

341
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: of the NFL Draft, fifteen guys were offensive lineman fifteen

342
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: offensive lineman five in the first round, ten in the

343
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: second round. That's a lot. That's a lot of people

344
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: who are following the your Boy's plan of making sure

345
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: you get get it right. You win it up front,

346
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: you win these games up front, and a lot of

347
00:19:55,080 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: teams jumped on board with it. Um these I'm I'm

348
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 1: actually to see this team hit the field, and then

349
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: every team's in this same boat right now because they're

350
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 1: all right. But man, oh man, I can't say enough

351
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: about how much I like this. So who was your

352
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: favorite Bills pick? Probably probably the third rounder, Spencer Brown. Yeah,

353
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: that's my guy, I think because we share a surname. Right.

354
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: This is a guy that made the most of his

355
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,679
Speaker 1: opt out year because there was no FCS football. You know,

356
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: their season got canceled, and instead of sitting on the

357
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: couch and becoming a couch potato, he he basically said,

358
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go train in California for the next seven

359
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: months with Joe Staley, former first round pick, Mid American

360
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: Conference player, I want to say, a Central Michigan, Western Michigan,

361
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: one of the Michigan's right but had a long and

362
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: distinguished career with the forty nine ers as an offensive tackle,

363
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: he goes out and trains with him for the next

364
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: seven months out in California and then gets an invite

365
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: to the Senior Bowl and holds his own. And it

366
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,680
Speaker 1: sounds like that's what convinced a lot of the Bills

367
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: scouts like this guy's gonna be all right at the

368
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: NFL level, Like he's playing with some of these kids

369
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: down here and it's not a problem. Yeah. And I

370
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 1: think when you say he held his own, I think, um,

371
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: well admitted he was rusty that first day, not sure

372
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: because he hadn't played a season. Though. I think the

373
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: way he handled it, as well as how well he did,

374
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: said as much about him as anything else where. You know,

375
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 1: he didn't seem like he was panic and there was

376
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: no frustration. He wasn't you know, that kind of guy.

377
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,959
Speaker 1: I think that that's kind of what did it, as

378
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: you know, for teams, is how you how these guys

379
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: handled these situations says as much about where their up

380
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 1: upside is as anything else. And I think he handled

381
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 1: it really well. I was telling Maddie this when we

382
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: were doing the draft special streaming over the weekend. Comes

383
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: from a farm background. His dad runs a cattle farm

384
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: out there in Iowa tell me him and Josh aren't

385
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: going to be fast friends. Two guys that come from

386
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: that kind of backgroun, a cantaloupe farmer and a cattle ranch. Yeah.

387
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's that's you know, that's seamless, isn't it.

388
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: It's like eighteen seventy five. You know, they both show

389
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: up in hats and stuff rights. We would be remiss

390
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: if we didn't mention that the Bills about two hours

391
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: ago announced they are in fact picking up the fift

392
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: year options of both Josh Allen and Tremaine Edmonds. To

393
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: little surprise, I would say, and immediately that is going

394
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: to put thirty five million dollars onto the bills twenty

395
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 1: twenty two cap. So that is going to be a

396
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: sizeable additional number to their books next year without even

397
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 1: knowing definitively where the camp is going to end up.

398
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: But I think this is why you saw the team

399
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 1: draft the way they did over the weekend. Two new

400
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 1: pass rushers, two new offensive linemen. I think they know

401
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: that they are going to have to be some difficult

402
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: decisions made in the next twelve months, probably less than

403
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: that in the next eleven months. Ten months with some

404
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: of the higher priced players on their roster who still

405
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: have time left on their contract. There are also some

406
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: veterans in the final year of their contract who in

407
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: all likelihood will not get a new one from the

408
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills because of the financial commitments that this team

409
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: is going to have to make to Edmondson Allen, whether

410
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: it's the fifty year option or an extension that comes

411
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: after that, it's going to change the dynamics of the

412
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: roster and where the majority of the money is invested,

413
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: which currently is the defensive line. So it's going to

414
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: prompt different kinds of decisions going forward because of the

415
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: money you have to commit to these two players, chiefly,

416
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: and it's going to be imperative that the Bills can

417
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 1: push off big investments in these well, they can't get

418
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 1: around Josh and Tremaine. They're gonna have to do it,

419
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: but to push off these investments until the cap has

420
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,400
Speaker 1: a chance to bounce back postcode. Yes, if if the

421
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: cap can bounce back and in twenty twenty three start

422
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 1: getting the balloon payments from the from the new TV deal,

423
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: which is the because one hundred billion dollars deal that

424
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: they were talking about then things will ease up on

425
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: the cap and like always manageable, right and unlike always

426
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: you signed Josh. Say, for instance, if they signed Josh

427
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: to a deal today, it's way less expensive. Even if

428
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: it's the same money, it's way less expensive and a

429
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: way smaller part percentage of the cap in four years

430
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: than it was the day you signed it. So if

431
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 1: you can squeeze it in the first year and get

432
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: through those first couple of years, at the end of it,

433
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: you get some relief and you can start building the

434
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: team back up. But you know, we all know where

435
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,679
Speaker 1: we're headed that the CAP's gonna bounce back in twenty

436
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: twenty three with the new TV deals plus the rebound

437
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: from this year and all that. But man, oh man,

438
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 1: you know the bills are in it because right and

439
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: this sea this year where it's the neigdor of the cap.

440
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: You know, they got to sign two pretty important players

441
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: and guarantee him some money. So they're gonna have to

442
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: figure out a way around that, and we'll see how

443
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,919
Speaker 1: that works out. I think the players, you know, they

444
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: can make some certain reasonable requests or demands during their negotiation,

445
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: say listen, you can give me, you can hold my

446
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: money for three years until the cap gets back, but

447
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 1: you got to guarantee more of it total. You know

448
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: what I'm saying that those kind of demands I would

449
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 1: think would be reasonable for a player to make on

450
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,360
Speaker 1: a team. He's got to sign a team friendly deal. Yeah,

451
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: that's the back and forth you're gonna have to undertake,

452
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: you know, That's what I would Until two camps, there

453
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: were some players around the league who did not get

454
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: their fifth year option exercise, including Tremaine Edmund's brother, Terrell,

455
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: the safety. They declined to pick up his option, and

456
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: that's because Pittsburgh's in worse financial straits than even the

457
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:01,479
Speaker 1: Bills are. To a to the end agree truly, and

458
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: the Titans declined the fifth year option on linebacker Rashaun Evans,

459
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: who was up for a fifty year option as a

460
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: first round pick of THEIRS in the twenty eighteen draft.

461
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: So the Titans say no, The Steelers say no to

462
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: their fifth year option players. Not everybody makes that, right,

463
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: and you know they for what it's worth. The Titans said, oh,

464
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,959
Speaker 1: we'll try to negotiate an extension for him. We just

465
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 1: we can't make that kind of financial commitment right now.

466
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: Right you know based on our situation. So that's where

Speaker 1: Day two with us and did a heck of a

482
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 1: job in his mock draft. Steve, I think he got

483
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: twelve correct in his first round mock. That's big. That's

484
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 1: that he was one of the highest Yeah, you can't hit.

485
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: That's one of the highest hit rates I think around

486
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 1: the country. Good for him, So good on Charles for that.

487
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,720

Speaker 1: and then, open lines for you at eight o three

490
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: five fifty one eight eight eight five fifty two five

491
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 1: fifty what did you like and what left you wanting

492
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: more with respect to the Bill's draft class here over

493
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: the weekend, Open Lines for you at eight five fifty

494
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I liked. I liked the way

495
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: they bounced back on day three, Steve, and you know,

496
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: the board fell in such a way where they could

497
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: address things. Now we saw them trade down headlines headline news.

498
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 1: Brandon Bean has traded down. I mean, if it wasn't

499
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: for Dave Gettleman, you know, for the first doing it

500
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: for the first time ever, I think it would have

501
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: gotten a lot more play. And Getleman's been in a

502
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: general manager's chair a little bit longer than Brandon, but

503
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: those two work together. I wonder if they had a

504
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: laugh about that, knowing neither of them had done it

505
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: before the weekend. And bang, right out of the shoote

506
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: Gettleman trades down and the deal with Chicago so the

507
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: Bears can get a quarterback, and he trades down, and

508
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: then Brandon does it. Later in the draft, they jumped

509
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: out of their second fifth round spot in a deal

510
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: with Houston and picked up two sixes, which leads me

511
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: to believe Steve that the Bills had a cluster of players,

512
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: cluster of players in that sixth seventh round area, and

513
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 1: they just said let's go back there and just scoop

514
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: ups and players who fit the value better than than

515
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: trying to grab somebody here. At one seventy four, they

516
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: got two oh three, two twelve, and two thirteen, those

517
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: three picks right there, and they took you know, uh,

518
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: they took the wide receiver, a safety, and a corner. Yeah,

519
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: they took two dbs in a wide receiver and I yeah,

520
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: those are as a nice cluster of picks, um three athletes.

521
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: We'll see see how how far they get. I like,

522
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: and you think about it, Rashad wild Goose the corner

523
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 1: and Damar Hamlin. This team has been has an undrafted

524
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: rookie free agent that started for three years at corner.

525
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: So the Bill it's not like these guys are gonna

526
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: miss these guys don't just miss them. Don't and don't

527
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: think they're not going to get better or that the

528
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: team is like going just their throw in picks. Um.

529
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: This club has proven that if you've if you can

530
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: do it, you're gonna get a chance. And and the

531
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,239
Speaker 1: thing about Wild Goose and Hamlin for that matter, is

532
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: they come from programs in the way that they're coached

533
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: that I think this front office respects. There is an

534
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: edge two players from pit. There was a there was

535
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: a pass rusher there, Rashad Weaver. I can't remember where

536
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: he went, but he went on the second day somewhere.

537
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: I want to say Dallas maybe. Um Man. I liked

538
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 1: him as a as a second third day pass rushing option. Uh,

539
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: not gonna blow up the pro day, you know, stop

540
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: watching other figures and stuff. But he can play. He

541
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: can really play. Um. I just really liked his game.

542
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: There were about four or five players on the pit defense.

543
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: I liked all of them. Like they all play with

544
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: an edge. They're aggressive, they're physical. Um. You can see

545
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 1: the camaraderie on the field between them just watching their

546
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: tape just for certain players. Ye, not for nothing too.

547
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: This resonates with NFL teams, doesn't it. Yes, it doesn't. Also,

548
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: Rashad wild Goose, his defensive coordinators Jim Leonard, Yeah, it

549
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: was kind and Jim's gotta has earned a great deal

550
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: of respect around the NFL. And and uh, I'll tell

551
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: you the story real quick. Remember Barry Alvarez, the former

552
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 1: coach in Wisconsin is he might be the ad still,

553
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: but he was the head coach of Wisconsin for a

554
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: lot of using brought them back to prominence. And I

555
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 1: went in to talk to him about who was it?

556
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: Lee Evans was who was Evans? I went back to

557
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 1: do a story post draft with Barry Alvarez. I was

558
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: sitting in his office and we were talking about Lee

559
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: and all this stuff, and I said, what about this year?

560
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: What are you guys got. He goes out, you guys,

561
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: we've got this guy and this guy. He goes, he know,

562
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: one guy, hope really gets a shot. I know he

563
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: won't because he didn't really check him off enough of

564
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: the box. But a kid that's really good. Is this

565
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 1: little kid, a little safety we got named Jim Leonard.

566
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: This was before he was drafted. He was an undrafted guy.

567
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: Here he goes he's a kind of guy that you've

568
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 1: seen that. So he had all these kinds of things

569
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: about this five ten or five nine guy, you know,

570
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: little dude playing safety and stuff. A kid turns out

571
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: to have, you know, nine ten year NFL career. Now

572
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: he's the defensive coordinator that Wisconsin Badgers, and he was

573
00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: in line to get a head coaching job and turned

574
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: it down. Yeah, he'll be a head coach if he

575
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: wants it. Yeah, and somewhere soon he will be. I

576
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: think he is so good at what he does. I

577
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: think he's waiting for an opportunity that the right one,

578
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: the right one, and he's not in a hurry. And

579
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: you got to tip your hat to that. But that's

580
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: you know how So this kid, Rashad wild Goose comes

581
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: from Leonard's yeah mentality. And Rashad was funny because he

582
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: was asked about Jim Leonard on the conference call when

583
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: he first met the Western New York media and he

584
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: called he goes Coach Leonard is a brainiac. That's what

585
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: he called it. He called him a brainiac. Yeah, which

586
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: shows you what the players think of, you know, his

587
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 1: scheming and coaching techniques with respect to drawn up defenses.

588
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: So you know you're playing a defense like that. You know,

589
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: as complex as as coach Leonard makes it, you come here,

590
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: the learning curve isn't is steep, you know what I mean,

591
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: So hopefully he takes to it quickly. We have to

592
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: take a break though, because we have to get to

593
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: phone calls when we come back. John and Orchard Park,

594
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: Brian and Williamsville, Brian and Alabama, Bobby and Lancaster. Hang on,

595
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: We'll get to all you guys when we return here

596
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: on One Bills Line presented by Klaud of Health, It's

597
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills Radio talking back to One Bills Live, going

598
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: right to the phones as we're asking you what did

599
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: you like and what left you wanting more from the

600
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: Bills twenty twenty one draft class and let us know

601
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: why We lead off as promised with John and Orchard Park. John,

602
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 1: what do you have for us? You're on one Bills Live. Yeah,

603
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: are you doing guys? I'd liked the two different signs

604
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: a lot. That makes sense, you know, being a Jerry

605
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: Hughes and Addison are in there last year, but spar

606
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 1: as we didn't go after the cornerback earlier. Yeah, I

607
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: mean I thought that Brandon Bean had a good answer

608
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: for that question, because it's a valid question. John, And

609
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: what he essentially said was we had corners that we

610
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: liked in the draft, but picking so late in the round,

611
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,720
Speaker 1: a lot of them would often come off the board

612
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: before it was our turn, and the value just didn't

613
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:18,399
Speaker 1: line up. So then I know, I know the Devil's advocates, Well,

614
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 1: then why didn't you trade up to go get one?

615
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: And I think that there were two reasons for that.

616
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: Number one, not a ton of draft capital to begin with,

617
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: because you're picking so late in the round, the picks

618
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: are worth less and not worthless, but worth less two words.

619
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: And then the second reason they didn't trade up is

620
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 1: because they would have probably to get up to some

621
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: of the places they wanted to parted with twenty twenty

622
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 1: two draft capital, and those picks right now are considered

623
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: to be gold because it is going to be one

624
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 1: of the deepest draft classes, maybe in the last twelve

625
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: to fifteen years, because of all the kids that went

626
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: back to school after the NFL or the NCAA excuse me,

627
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 1: granted everybody a bonus year of eligibility because of the

628
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: pandemic and all the disruptions that it caused, so a

629
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: lot of kids went back to school. As we've said

630
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: on this show, the draft pool was only six hundred

631
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: and fifty seven players represented by agents when it's usually

632
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: eighteen to nineteen hundred players every year, So it was

633
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: dramatically reduced in terms of depth, value, etc. Right, and

634
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: I there were a lot of corners that we had

635
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: talked about leading in and we thought it was one

636
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 1: of the spots of need for the team, not need

637
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: so much as lack of depth and competition. You've got

638
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: Dane Jackson competing with well, now it looks like Levi

639
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: Wallace and the new guy, Richard wild Goose, and that's it.

640
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's the extent of the competition. Certainly

641
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: Tradavious Whites in that mix as well, and Tarn Johnson.

642
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: But Arn Johnson's in the last year of his deal.

643
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: You've got to have some guys there to to cover

644
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 1: up and go into the draft. I would say, listen,

645
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 1: it was edge rush. It was either corner, edge rusher,

646
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: or offensive line. They got two of those three done

647
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: really well. And with the way this defense has played

648
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: the last three years, particularly with Levi Wallace out there,

649
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: I mean they've got returning starters all the way across

650
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: the secondary and on a defense that was that was

651
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: getting better. But having said that, I just think that

652
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm all about I'm with you. I

653
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 1: wish they'd gotten a corner higher in the draft, but

654
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,160
Speaker 1: by the end and the timing wasn't there, the value

655
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 1: wasn't there, and to get one of those guys, you

656
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,840
Speaker 1: would have overvalued that position. I think it would have

657
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: been a reach for a guy. What are you gonna do,

658
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 1: you know, trade up in the third round to get

659
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: a guy? Yeah, so it would have been really expensive.

660
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: And I like what they've got in this draft they

661
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: got they didn't probably late and a safety late, and

662
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: they'll probably bring in some undrafted at the cornerback position

663
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: as well. I would anticipate one, at least one, probably two. Um.

664
00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I remember when we had Joe b on

665
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: the show last week, he said, after this year, the

666
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: only corners you got under contract or Dane Jackson and

667
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: Tredavious White. Right, Levi's here on a one year deal,

668
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: Terrence contracts up. His rookie contracts up after this year,

669
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: and I think Cam Lewis's contract, who's going to be

670
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 1: the guy competing with Terren Johnson in the nickel role,

671
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: his contract's going to be up, And Siran Neil contracts up,

672
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: so you need people, so they'll have to address it

673
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,959
Speaker 1: some way or another. Let's go back. He's right though,

674
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 1: I mean that John's right from Orchard Park. You know,

675
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: that's one of the things that we could They couldn't

676
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,839
Speaker 1: do everything. I think they like where they're at. They

677
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 1: feel comfortable, if not great. I feel comfortable with Levi Wallace.

678
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,280
Speaker 1: He's been a three year starter for him in this defense,

679
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: and he's done everything they've asked him to do. So

680
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: they feel comfortable with where they're at. Although we all

681
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: know coming down the road you might see another tradevious

682
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 1: white kind of pick in the next draft or two. Yeah,

683
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: back to the phones and to Brian and Williamsville. Brian,

684
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 1: what do you have for us here on one Bill's Live.

685
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: Thanks guys. Okay, First, let me say I have complete

686
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 1: faith in Sean and Brandon. Okay, but I you know,

687
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys have done this too. I've watched

688
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: every game from last year, some of them three times.

689
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:17,240
Speaker 1: We got crushed in the Running game, the Kansas City game,

690
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: the Titans game, the New England game. We would have

691
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: lost if it weren't for a fortunate strip side they

692
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 1: were they were marketing with us in the fifteen that

693
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 1: happened on something like that, they were marching into the

694
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,240
Speaker 1: end zone. We would have lost that game, right, wanted

695
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: to run stuff. We're in the second round. The kid

696
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: from wasn't North Carolina State. Yeah. I liked Delie McNeil too.

697
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: Yeah he was. Yeah, you know how and okay, I

698
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 1: know um stars coming back, right, it happens if something

699
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 1: had he tweaks an ankle, then we got to go

700
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: back to the defense we had last year. Yeah, Vernon

701
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: Butler Harrison Phillips since says, no, it's not. That's not

702
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,479
Speaker 1: the defense that was great. The defense that was great

703
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 1: was two years ago. Yeah, that's right now, you're right, guy,

704
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 1: absolutely right. I don't know what I'm surely had a plan.

705
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't know what it is.

706
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: And from where I ship, they beat it desperately. Well,

707
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 1: I think what Brandon Bean says all the time post draft,

708
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,399
Speaker 1: because he said this more than once and he said

709
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: it again this year. It's a long time before we're

710
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 1: playing games in September. And he and his personnel department

711
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: have done a good job in recent years of mining

712
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: for talent that's still out there on the free agent market.

713
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you still got players like Richard Sherman on

714
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: the free agent market. Now. Do I think the Bills

715
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: are gonna sign Richard Sherman. No, But there are guys

716
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: that are considerably more affordable out there at defensive tackle,

717
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 1: maybe a corner who's not Richard Sherman, because I think

718
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: his price is still gonna be too high. But they

719
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: have a way of uncovering talent that's sitting out there

720
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: in the weeds that they can bring in compete, maybe

721
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: even have a role on this team. I'm not saying

722
00:39:56,440 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: that's the fix, but they've done it and it's helped

723
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: the team in the past. I'll say this as well.

724
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: I was startled by the lack of run defense early

725
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: in the season last year or two. They got betters

726
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 1: the season went on, but it took it seemed to

727
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: take forever for their defensive run get defense, for their

728
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: run defense to come around after no offseason, no no

729
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,919
Speaker 1: hard practices, no pads, all that stuff, and I think

730
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: and it bothered me until I looked around, and so

731
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 1: it was kind of that's what was happening around the league.

732
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: It was a universal problem. I don't think it's going

733
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: to be that big as big of a problem as

734
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: it was last year, because I'm right, I'm right with Brian.

735
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: I mean, I was shocked at how much trouble the

736
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 1: Bills had stopped in the run last year. Now, the

737
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 1: one thing that helps them in their run defense is

738
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 1: the fact that their offense is lightening it up. Teams

739
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 1: can't or don't can't afford to run the football all

740
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: the time and then get stopped on a third down,

741
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,359
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, the Bills are going down

742
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: and they're they're racking up to two possessions apiece for

743
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 1: everyone that the other team gets, and they're scoring points.

744
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: The Bills outscored a lot of teams last Year's no

745
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 1: question about it. In the Week seventeen game, right, their

746
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 1: run defense got kind of brushed under the rug, kind

747
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: of hidden by the fact that their offense was so

748
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 1: good last year. I'm not saying it's gonna everything's gonna

749
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,919
Speaker 1: be fine since star Lotu Lela's back, and they're gonna

750
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: have hard practices in the preseason. They're gonna have some

751
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,359
Speaker 1: preseason games where they get in the rhythm where they're

752
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna have a chance to look at live film on

753
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 1: defense and get some run fits that are right. It's

754
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: gonna help, but it's not going to be completely fixed.

755
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 1: So I'm with him a little bit on that. I

756
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: still think that would be a ward that I want

757
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: to see go away, and it may when the season begins,

758
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: but that's a concern for me as well. Brian and Alabama,

759
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: Bobby and Lancaster, hang on, we'll get to you in

760
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: the next segments. Sorry we didn't get to you here,

761
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: but we will get to you next. We're asking you

762
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: draft weekends over, what did you like that the Bills

763
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 1: did with their twenty twenty one draft class and what

764
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: left you wanting just a little bit more from your

765
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: wish list? Get your comments next from Brian and Bobby. Chiefly,

766
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: You're on One Bill's Live presented by Kalid to Health.

767
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 1: It's Buffalo Bills Radio, jumping right back on the phone

768
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: lines as we're asking you what did you like from

769
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,399
Speaker 1: the Bills draft weekend and what left you want more?

770
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: And we go right to Brian in Alabama. Brian, what

771
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 1: do you have for us? You're on One Bills Live. Hey,

772
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 1: good afternoon, fellas. Um. I like I want to say,

773
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 1: I really loved obviously the first two picks of the

774
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: becase of ends. I followed the acc on Atario fans,

775
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: so I've seen those two a lot to the last

776
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: three or four years. But what was really refreshing about

777
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: Greg is his reactions being drafted by Buffalo. I think

778
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 1: he's had the best reaction by any draft pick of

779
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 1: the last ten years. I can recall of being excited

780
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,320
Speaker 1: to come. So he has a really great attitude. And

781
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: as far as what lets me want it for more,

782
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,360
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna sound like a broken record, but

783
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:08,240
Speaker 1: the cornerback obviously, Yeah, I mean I think this stresses

784
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: back at least three or four years now, where that

785
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: has been the the lacking part of this defense. And

786
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: no knock only by Wallace. I mean, I don't try

787
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:21,840
Speaker 1: to knock any player because I'm not playing in the league,

788
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: but I really just feel like if they can upgrade

789
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 1: that position and really nail it down instead of putting

790
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: stop gaps year in year and the year out, this

791
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 1: would make this defense a lot more better. So yeah,

792
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 1: that's all I got. All right, Thanks for the call, Brian.

793
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 1: I think his point as well taken from this standpoint too, Steve,

794
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: And we'll get into this more later on in the show.

795
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 1: But the AFC East also loaded up on weapons. So

796
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,359
Speaker 1: I think the more and more that the league realizes, hey,

797
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 1: you got to be able to throw, the more and

798
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: more teams are gonna be throwing ten personnel out there

799
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 1: on the field, and now, yeah, put more corners out

800
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: there other people. Unless you have outstanding safeties. Well the

801
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,879
Speaker 1: Bills do and the you're right, it's it comes down

802
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 1: to athleticism, and that's really the only box that a

803
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 1: guy like Levi Wallace does not check at this point.

804
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,280
Speaker 1: He's got experience, he's got some productivity in the National

805
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,799
Speaker 1: Football League, He's seen a ton, he's gotten better. He's

806
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: held off all comers that they tried to throw at him.

807
00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: Now certainly they haven't thrown a high draft pick at him,

808
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: but everybody else that they brought in to replace him

809
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: can't get it done. He won the job as a

810
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,439
Speaker 1: rookie free agent. He's a good player. It's not an

811
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 1: athletically gifted player at that for instance, at that position,

812
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:40,480
Speaker 1: I mean for the rest of us, Yeah, he could

813
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: run circles around you and me and everybody else on

814
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: the street. But for that we're talking about elite athletes

815
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: out there and you're right when you get into this

816
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: game against the New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets,

817
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:55,280
Speaker 1: and whoever else are on the schedule. The whole league,

818
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 1: the whole league is throwing athletes out there. And like

819
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 1: I said, this draft class, everybody running down the street

820
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: was running a four three. Yeah, it's getting faster and

821
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,439
Speaker 1: more athletically gifted out on the edges. And and Levi

822
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: Wallace is a guy who has learned to cope with that.

823
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 1: But I think they're gonna start throwing more and more

824
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: at him. So yeah, there is something to be said

825
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 1: about that. In fact, it'd be interesting to put this

826
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: to the Bills listeners of anybody doesn't even call in

827
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 1: and say what you think, Are you more worried about

828
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: the Bills run defense or their past defense in the

829
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: throwing league? Well, and that's where I think an advocate

830
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,800
Speaker 1: for what the Bills did in the draft would say, well,

831
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: we loaded up on our pass rush, so life is

832
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 1: easier for our guys on the back end. And there

833
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: may be something to that. But but at the same time,

834
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 1: quarterbacks are getting the ball out faster than ever, and

835
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 1: they're also more athletic, and they're extending places. They're extending plays.

836
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: Even if you're getting pressure on them. The guy's gotta

837
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta corral them. You gotta find a

838
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 1: way to get them on the ground. And they're elusive.

839
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,240
Speaker 1: They're athletic. Back there's not Philip Rivers, it's not Dan Foults,

840
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: it's not Peyton Manning back there. It's guys. It's you know,

841
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,760
Speaker 1: it's Pat Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray and those guys.

842
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, Justin Herbert. All those guys can run around

843
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: two at tanga bolo. All these guys are runaround guys

844
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: so as as good as your pass rush. Maybe you

845
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:21,320
Speaker 1: know Pat Mahomes, I mean they didn't win the Super Bowl,

846
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,719
Speaker 1: but he gave him a chance running four hundred yards

847
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,480
Speaker 1: behind the line of scrimmage over the course of the game. Yeah,

848
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 1: let's go back to the phones to Bobby and Lancaster,

849
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,680
Speaker 1: who's been waiting patiently. Bobby, what do you got for us?

850
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 1: You're on one Bill's Live. Hey, Hey, Stevo, how are

851
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,799
Speaker 1: you doing? Brown? I just want to say called you

852
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: and wait. Last week and we did a little draft

853
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: observation and they did pretty much exactly we said trust

854
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 1: and Bean he got us. The first two were the defense,

855
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: the next two we're big offensive linement. That's how we

856
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: know we win defense and offensive life. All right, now,

857
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 1: what I have though, just give me thirty seconds. I

858
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 1: got a question for you guys, because obviously you guys

859
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: have forgotten more football than most of these callers, you

860
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 1: know when they call all in. So here we go

861
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: with the question. Now, I believe we still need that big,

862
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,760
Speaker 1: heavyset guy in the middle. Now is this a possibility

863
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,799
Speaker 1: at all? Because you're looking at two guys that I

864
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 1: have pictured out in a Keem Hicks from Chicago ninety

865
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: six and also Cameron Haywood in Pittsburgh. Now, both of

866
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: these teams the offensive lineman. Also, would it be feasible

867
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 1: to give them number one draft maybe halfway through a

868
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 1: year with if they're having bad seasons either team, maybe

869
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 1: the rookie quarterback in Chicago or Ben's not getting it done,

870
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,399
Speaker 1: would it be possible to give them a number one pick?

871
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: And maybe because since we have a plethora of offensive lineman, now,

872
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 1: maybe give him a Bottcker or a Ryan Bates. I mean,

873
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 1: it can start. Give them one of these guys in

874
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: a first round pick and grab a guy like Cameron

875
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 1: Haywood or a guy like a Keem Hicks. I don't

876
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:51,359
Speaker 1: know if it's feasible. What do you guys think, because

877
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: like I said, you know a lot about it. Is

878
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: that a trade that would be possible? Because I think

879
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: that's the only piece we're missing, is that runstopper in

880
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 1: the mid love start coming back, but after a year off,

881
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: you don't know what you're getting. Right now, you're right,

882
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: and all this becomes moot if star comes back and

883
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: starts playing at all pro level or that kind of thing. So, yeah, right,

884
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,440
Speaker 1: it is feasible, and it's a good idea. There are

885
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: players out there. And if I don't think you need

886
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,279
Speaker 1: to give up a one though, yeah, a ones. That's

887
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,440
Speaker 1: exactly what I was thinking. A ones kind of added

888
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: like why give them a one? Maybe a three? Yeah,

889
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: four or nothing or five? Or give them two players

890
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 1: for one. You know, you don't have to overthink this.

891
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 1: You can give them a guy if you're a squad,

892
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 1: you know, a guy like an Isaiah McKenzie, knowing that

893
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: you may have a replacement. You've got a replacement for me,

894
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:37,840
Speaker 1: and you don't have to do this right away, and

895
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 1: you can evaluate all this and anywhere on your team

896
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: where you've got a redundancy where you've got two Isaiah McKenzie's,

897
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 1: or you've got two you know, Tommy Doyle's, or two

898
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 1: Spencer Browns, or a quality starter where you've got a

899
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:59,279
Speaker 1: John Feliciano and you've got Jack Anderson who you think

900
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 1: can go in and do it exactly the same, or

901
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 1: one of the one of the offensive tacker Tommy Doyler,

902
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 1: Spencer Brown can move in and play whatever. If you've

903
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 1: got some redundancies on your squad, give them away, trade

904
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 1: them for something you don't have. Yeah, so I'm yeah,

905
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,280
Speaker 1: I'm all about that. You're right. And a Keem Hicks

906
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: you can go to both teams. Listen, we're interested in

907
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,839
Speaker 1: Keem Hicks. What's it gonna take for you to trade

908
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,400
Speaker 1: with the Chicago because we're talking to Pittsburgh too, and

909
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: we like their cam. Heyward, here's what they're asking for.

910
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: What do you got? And that's that's kind of the

911
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,880
Speaker 1: way it works. And if those teams are struggling in

912
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: that way or need an extra weapon, man oh man, Yeah,

913
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,719
Speaker 1: that's a great call, Bobby. They could do that absolutely,

914
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:44,799
Speaker 1: but they won't do it until they evaluate what they've got,

915
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:46,920
Speaker 1: and they don't know exactly what they've got in these

916
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 1: draft picks until they get on the field. Yeah, not

917
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 1: only the draft picks, but coming back right, you know,

918
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: is Harrison Phillips better this year? You know what do

919
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,000
Speaker 1: we have look for this if something like that, look

920
00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: for August been training camp? Yeah, August, Yeah, with a

921
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: couple with a couple of weeks to go before the

922
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:05,839
Speaker 1: season so they can get him up to speed. Break

923
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 1: time for us. When we come back, we'll take a

924
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 1: little bit of a look at the AFC East in

925
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:12,440
Speaker 1: the draft and see where those three teams may have

926
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: closed the gap a little bit. And in about twenty

927
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 1: minutes time, one Charles Davis from NFL Network joins us

928
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:20,880
Speaker 1: to review the Bills draft and the draft as a whole.

929
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 1: When we come back here on One Bill's Live, presented

930
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 1: by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bills Radio. At a

931
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:45,080
Speaker 1: Steve taster who has been all over the fields. Kind

932
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 1: of unique. He was kind of a dual role player

933
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 1: for you, Steve, Steve a blimp. We're not even in

934
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:58,600
Speaker 1: the straged beer of normalcy. Well, give me in to

935
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: our number two of the Monday Adition and one Bills

936
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:04,720
Speaker 1: Live Chris Brown, Steve passing with you as always and

937
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 1: spent the first hour of the show diving into the

938
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,720
Speaker 1: Bills draft class. I want to just skim the top

939
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 1: on the AFC East. We'll probably dive in a little

940
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:18,280
Speaker 1: bit deeper later in the week, but at first Blush,

941
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 1: Steve and I talked about this off air with the

942
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 1: quarterback possibilities that could have unfolded in terms of impacting

943
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:32,720
Speaker 1: the balance of power in the AFC East, I would

944
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 1: say it went about as good as it could go

945
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,960
Speaker 1: for the Bills because of where the top quarterbacks in

946
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,799
Speaker 1: this draft ended up. Yes, Trevor Lawrence is in the

947
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: AFC Conference, but he's on a team that needs a

948
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 1: lot of work. He's out of division. Trey Lance is

949
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 1: in the NFC West, Justin Fields is in the NFC North.

950
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,439
Speaker 1: Only see those guys once every four years. Well, maybe

951
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 1: a little bit sooner with this seventeenth game now. The

952
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:07,399
Speaker 1: only way it could have gone better is that the

953
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:13,360
Speaker 1: guy that went to New England, Mac Jones, New Orleans

954
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:15,400
Speaker 1: was trying to trade up ahead of New England to

955
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,319
Speaker 1: get him, and they couldn't get it done. That could

956
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 1: have gone a little bit better for us because Mac

957
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 1: Jones can play. He's got and he's gonna process and

958
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:26,080
Speaker 1: he's gonna make that He's not an athlete, which is

959
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 1: one thing where he's going to be. You don't have

960
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 1: to worry about the quarterback run game like you do

961
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 1: with Cam Newton's That was an issue. But yeah, it

962
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 1: went pretty good for the Buffalo bit. Mac Jones lands

963
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 1: in New England and Isaiah Isaiah Zach Wilson lands in

964
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:50,279
Speaker 1: New York with the Jets, and well, I think Zach

965
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 1: Wilson is really good at making off platform throws and

966
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 1: they certainly invested in the offensive line to help protect

967
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:02,399
Speaker 1: him effectively so he can make plays. If you had

968
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: to pick between the five quarterbacks in this draft, and

969
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: you had to put two of them in the division,

970
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: these would have been your first two, I think, right

971
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 1: to those particular teams. If you're if you're interested in

972
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: Buffalo holding onto its reign of power in the division,

973
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,760
Speaker 1: those are the two you probably would have picked. Yes,

974
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,799
Speaker 1: and I think you'd pick those two teams as well.

975
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,320
Speaker 1: In the way they went, Zach Wilson, with his tool

976
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 1: set in New England, might have given they have a tendency.

977
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,800
Speaker 1: To me, New England has a tendency to be really creative.

978
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 1: They would have asked him to do a lot with

979
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: his skill set. Mac Jones has a limited skill set athletically.

980
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:41,879
Speaker 1: You know where he's gonna be. He's gonna pocket pass

981
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,839
Speaker 1: or that's what New England's offense will be if he's

982
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 1: the quarter. Think they're going to drift back to what

983
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:47,919
Speaker 1: the offense looked like with Brady, right, we still don't

984
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: know what Robert salaw and that offense is going to

985
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 1: look like. They come with a San Francisco forty nine

986
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 1: or kind of offense. So it's pretty slack and get

987
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 1: rid of it and we'll see. Zach Wilson could have

988
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 1: a lot of success with the Jets in that offense.

989
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:06,120
Speaker 1: But I would hate to see that skill set in

990
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 1: New England. But still I agree with you. You knew

991
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 1: and a lot of people were rolling their eyes that

992
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:19,879
Speaker 1: New England got a guy without doing anything. Yeah and yeah,

993
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: here we go again with say zig when everybody thinks

994
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,319
Speaker 1: they're gonna zag. That's just the way they are. And

995
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 1: they were fortunate, make no mistake about it, that they

996
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:33,280
Speaker 1: were able to sit there at fifteen and get mac Jones,

997
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 1: and then second round they get Christian Barmore. They move

998
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 1: up to get him part with their third round pick

999
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: as a result, and then they get what I think

1000
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: is going to be an absolute steal in Ronnie Perkins,

1001
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma pass rusher. You know, lighter guy, probably going

1002
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,319
Speaker 1: to be a specialty player for them, which is why

1003
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 1: the value fits in round four. That dude is an

1004
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:03,399
Speaker 1: alpha dog. That guy isn't scared at anybody, and he's

1005
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 1: gonna bring it every single week. I think he's the

1006
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:10,520
Speaker 1: exact I'm not saying he's Lawrence Taylor, but his attitude

1007
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:14,359
Speaker 1: when he plays the game is like Lawrence Taylor. Now,

1008
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: he's probably not going to be Lawrence Taylor. We're talking

1009
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 1: about the second pick in the draft, probably not probably

1010
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:22,319
Speaker 1: the guy that changed the face of pass protection more

1011
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 1: than any other player in the history of the game.

1012
00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 1: But he's got that alpha dog mentality, like he's going

1013
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 1: to walk into that locker room and he's not going

1014
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:33,359
Speaker 1: to be afraid to tell people what's up no matter

1015
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 1: how many years they got in the league. That's just

1016
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 1: who he is. He did that at Oklahoma. He walked

1017
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 1: on the field as a freshman. He said all right, guys,

1018
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 1: this is what we're doing right, And people stood up

1019
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:44,719
Speaker 1: and listened to the eighteen year old in the room.

1020
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: So you can do that at Oklahoma and then have

1021
00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:51,880
Speaker 1: a productive career. So I like Perkins. I think I

1022
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 1: think he's a good player that New England got, especially

1023
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,400
Speaker 1: in the fourth round. I thought that was really really

1024
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,760
Speaker 1: good value for them. And then there was this Steve

1025
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:05,239
Speaker 1: Ramandre Stevenson. They took Perkins teammate Romandre Stevenson in the

1026
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: fifth round, the running back, one cut guy, two hundred

1027
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:16,080
Speaker 1: thirty one pounds. The Patriots are running the ball right.

1028
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 1: They are going to pound the ball and work play

1029
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: action off of it. Throw on third down, and I

1030
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,160
Speaker 1: think Mac Jones is the guy that's going to probably

1031
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: be doing it sooner rather than later. As far as

1032
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: the Jets go, thought they were smart trade up, get

1033
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 1: Vera Tucker. Whether he plays right tackle or guard is

1034
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: kind of immaterial. He's a good lineman and will be

1035
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: for a long time for them. And then in the

1036
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,880
Speaker 1: second round they get probably one of the best slot

1037
00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 1: receivers in the entire draft in Elijah Moore, who is

1038
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,879
Speaker 1: a jitterbug and explosive and ridiculously productive. In the Old

1039
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,960
Speaker 1: miss offense. He is going to be a handful in

1040
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,839
Speaker 1: the slot runs four, three, five, and then they got

1041
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: my Calcarter the running back. But here's what interested me.

1042
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,840
Speaker 1: Late in the draft, Day three, Robert Sala finally gets

1043
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 1: Robert Sala. I'm gonna mess that up all the time.

1044
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,839
Speaker 1: Robert Sala finally gets some defensive players to come off

1045
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:20,440
Speaker 1: the board for his team and gets three corners and

1046
00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: two safeties on Day three, and the two safeties Steve.

1047
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: What's interesting to me is they're both hybrid type players linebackers,

1048
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: safety types. Big Nichols, if you will, really makes me

1049
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,960
Speaker 1: wonder how he's going to deploy those players. We know

1050
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 1: he likes big, tall, long corners on the outside. These

1051
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 1: guys are not that. They're hybrid safety linebacker type. So

1052
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see what he has in

1053
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: store for that defensive scheme in New York. Well you

1054
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 1: can look it's go wag and look what he did

1055
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 1: in San Francisco and extrapolate that roster onto the Jet roster.

1056
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 1: And I'm with you, I'm a little bit shocked that

1057
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 1: he had waited so long to get guys on the

1058
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 1: defensive side. Day three, I may need bodies back, right,

1059
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I thought the Jets would really grab some defenders,

1060
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,160
Speaker 1: but they didn't, and you know, kudos to them for

1061
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:15,920
Speaker 1: being disciplined enough not to do that. But nevertheless, Robert Slaw,

1062
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: who got hired after being a great defensive coordinator, drafted

1063
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 1: offensive guys. And there's something to be said for that,

1064
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:28,680
Speaker 1: because defensive guys know what gives them problems, and they

1065
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,959
Speaker 1: have a knack as you can imagine that for knowing

1066
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: which guys in the draft are going to give other

1067
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: defenses problems. So there is something in that him and

1068
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:41,320
Speaker 1: his staff all being a new staff. Kudos to them

1069
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 1: for not getting pigeoned holed by guys like us and

1070
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: going out and grabbing all the defense defenders on the board.

1071
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 1: And then the Dolphins with their two ones yet Jalen

1072
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 1: Waddle and Jaalen Phillips, they take a risk and taking

1073
00:58:55,840 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 1: the pass rusher from Miami who had who retired from

1074
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 1: college football after getting three concussions in rapid succession and

1075
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 1: would not get medically cleared by UCLA, steps away from

1076
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:08,600
Speaker 1: the game for about a year. Miami convinces him to

1077
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 1: come back. He plays last season, very productive kills it

1078
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:15,040
Speaker 1: on the Pro Day and winds up going early in

1079
00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: the draft. And then they take Javon Holland, the safety

1080
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 1: from Oregon, A player I really liked. I thought he

1081
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 1: was one of the two best safeties in the entire

1082
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 1: draft class. Really liked him in his playmaking ability. And

1083
00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 1: then they go with guys that aren't popping in the

1084
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 1: athletic measurables, but are just steady players. Leam Eichenberg, the

1085
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,920
Speaker 1: right tackle from Notre Dame. He's a six s eight kid,

1086
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 1: just like Hunter Long is a pretty big tight end.

1087
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: It's six five plus from Boston College. Not a guy

1088
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 1: that's gonna, you know, make thirty forty yard receptions down

1089
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,919
Speaker 1: field like KASICKI might, but it's good enough to work

1090
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 1: in the seams there in that offense. So I thought

1091
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 1: they did okay. They didn't wow me. They did okay,

1092
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 1: and I don't feel terribly threatened. You know, Larnel Coleman,

1093
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:08,520
Speaker 1: an offensive tackle out of mass You know Jared Doakes

1094
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 1: as a running back UM and you know, you look

1095
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 1: back at their picks, you know they're their number one pick,

1096
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 1: number six overall, Um Battle from Philly. They traded out,

1097
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 1: then traded back in. That was due to a trade

1098
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: their number, their second round pick, number thirty six overall,

1099
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:26,080
Speaker 1: they traded out, traded back in with Houston. They're they're

1100
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,800
Speaker 1: all there, forty second pick, their number, forty two pick,

1101
01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 1: New York Giants out of mind. They traded all the

1102
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,479
Speaker 1: way down all their draft picks. They were moving around

1103
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 1: all over the place pre draft and on draft day

1104
01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 1: to get the guys they wanted. So they obviously had

1105
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: a real um intent plan to get guys, and some

1106
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 1: guys game came close to falling to them, so they'd

1107
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: trade around and got them. So interesting, interesting draft from Miami.

1108
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,280
Speaker 1: Break time for us when we return. It is one

1109
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,840
Speaker 1: Charles Davis from NFL Network. You might have seen them

1110
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:58,280
Speaker 1: over the weekend breaking down the draft pick by pick

1111
01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:02,439
Speaker 1: on the network. He'll come here and join us as

1112
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 1: we review the Bills draft, the AFC East and maybe

1113
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,920
Speaker 1: even some draft classes he liked elsewhere. Did Detroit get

1114
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 1: it right? They actually did some good things this weekend

1115
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 1: in the draft, very unlike them Chicago Tuesday. We'll have

1116
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:21,360
Speaker 1: to discuss some of that. We do that with Charles.

1117
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: Next here on one Bills Live presented by Kalaida Health,

1128
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 1: all You're all fresh as a daisy here on Monday. Now, Charles, Hey, guys,

01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 1: how you doing. Listen, No one cares if you're tired

1130
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 1: or what have you. You guys knowing the sports business,

1131
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:23,960
Speaker 1: the first time you complain about being tired or whatever,

1132
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 1: all the people who are listening to us, they roll

1133
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: their eyes. Yeah, and then they tell us that we're

1134
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 1: all too soft, right because they're out there making it,

1135
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,440
Speaker 1: you know, each and every day. And it's like a

1136
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:37,560
Speaker 1: friend of mine always says, we're not breaking rocks, so

1137
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:40,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what they're tired or Now, let's go congratulations.

1138
01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:42,800
Speaker 1: So you got like twelve out of the first thirty

1139
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 1: two picks right the first Yeah, right, that's killed it

1140
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: in your mock draft. You did, you killed it. That's

1141
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,840
Speaker 1: hard to do, right. Did you get caught by any

1142
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 1: trades unaware? I mean, tell us about how that happened,

1143
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:57,480
Speaker 1: because getting twelve seriously, getting twelve picks right with all

1144
01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:01,280
Speaker 1: the uncertainty is really something to be said for that. Yeah,

1145
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,440
Speaker 1: thanks a lot, Steve. I appreciate it, and I think

1146
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 1: you know, look, bottom line is when we're talking about

1147
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:07,840
Speaker 1: twelve picks, right, we're talking about I was fortunate enough

1148
01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,919
Speaker 1: to get twelve guys going to that team that picked

1149
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 1: them right. You know. Another way to look at is

1150
01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: how many guys did you have in the first round

1151
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: that went in the first round? You know what I mean?

1152
01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 1: Like we have thirty two names. If you're getting you know,

1153
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:25,439
Speaker 1: twenty five of those right, because they're gonna be some surprises.

1154
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 1: Let's let's face it. Alex Leatherwood to Las Vegas in

1155
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 1: the first round. I have not seen a mock anywhere

1156
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:37,040
Speaker 1: that had that right. Peyton Turner, the defensive end from

1157
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:40,479
Speaker 1: Houston going to New Orleans. If you guys saw mocked

1158
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 1: had Peyton Turner in the first round. Let me know,

1159
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they're not first round players because that has

1160
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 1: to be proven out. But for all of us who

1161
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: are trying to predict what teams are doing, all yeah, now,

1162
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 1: now where I got lucky Steve, And I'll leave it

1163
01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:57,880
Speaker 1: with this, And a lot of it is there's some

1164
01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,800
Speaker 1: you have to be fortunate that team kind of stick

1165
01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 1: or whatever. A number of number of our colleagues, Chris

1166
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:07,040
Speaker 1: and Steve, as we know, they will do mocks that

1167
01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,160
Speaker 1: have trades, proposed trades as team trades here this day,

1168
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:12,520
Speaker 1: and it makes sense because you know, we're all trying

1169
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:15,840
Speaker 1: to do things that makes sense. I never do trades,

1170
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 1: and it's just a personal thing. I don't think I

1171
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 1: have enough brain power to figure out all that stuff,

1172
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 1: so I just stick where they are. And because I

1173
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 1: didn't do a trade, because I would have said, New

1174
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,280
Speaker 1: England trades up to get a quarterback. Who that would

1175
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,400
Speaker 1: have been if I had traded who knows. But when

1176
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:37,720
Speaker 1: I stuck at fifteen, mac Jones made sense and so

1177
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 1: the board failed to me as we like that because

1178
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:44,480
Speaker 1: they didn't have to make that trade. So again that's

1179
01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:46,520
Speaker 1: why I say a lot of it is just being fortunate.

1180
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 1: And look at fourteen when Minnesota traded out and the

1181
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: Jets traded back. I had I believe Elijah Vera Tucker,

1182
01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 1: the guard from the Guard from USC tackle going to Minnesota,

1183
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 1: but instead he hit the rights going to the Jets.

1184
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 1: So again there's some serendipity too, there's some being fortunate,

1185
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 1: and there are years were some really good evaluators. The

1186
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,640
Speaker 1: league just may flip on its head and all of

1187
01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:12,840
Speaker 1: a sudden, you've got you know three right, And I've

1188
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:16,040
Speaker 1: been in many of those years. So Charles, with respect

1189
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,800
Speaker 1: to Mac Jones and Zach Wilson, Steve and I were

1190
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 1: just talking about this as it pertains to the Bills.

1191
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 1: We live in Bill's myopia here, So just put your

1192
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 1: Bill's head on for a second. As a Bills fan,

1193
01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 1: knowing that there was a strong likelihood that both the

1194
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 1: Jets and the Patriots were going to end up with

1195
01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:40,200
Speaker 1: somebody from this quarterback class, particularly in Round one, I

1196
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:45,080
Speaker 1: think from an elite athletic traits standpoint, you probably did

1197
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:46,720
Speaker 1: as good as you were going to do as a

1198
01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:49,320
Speaker 1: Bills fan in hoping that the balance of power wasn't

1199
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:53,240
Speaker 1: dramatically shifted by the quarterbacks that are now entering this

1200
01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:55,440
Speaker 1: division based on the pool that was sitting there in

1201
01:05:55,520 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 1: round one. How do you How does that grab you? Yeah?

1202
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,600
Speaker 1: I think I think I understand where you're going there.

1203
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,680
Speaker 1: And let's start with because I heard you say a

1204
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 1: lead athletic traits, So that means I'm gonna start with

1205
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:12,040
Speaker 1: mac Jones because out of the five, he would be

1206
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 1: the fifth. When we talk about a lead athletic traits.

1207
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,120
Speaker 1: Out of the five quarterbacks, we all ranked at the

1208
01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 1: top of the board. And that's exactly how it came

1209
01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:23,160
Speaker 1: to be. Because one San Francisco didn't take mac Jones

1210
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:27,480
Speaker 1: at three as was widely rumored. It fell the way

1211
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 1: that I would say the general consensus, which is Matt

1212
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:35,000
Speaker 1: Jones was fifth out of those five. It hit right

1213
01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,440
Speaker 1: the other four went ahead of him. He won't be

1214
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 1: the guy you deal with right away. I don't believe.

1215
01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:45,000
Speaker 1: I think you're still dealing with Cam Newton to begin things.

1216
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:48,240
Speaker 1: How the season progresses, we shall see. It's rare that

1217
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:50,720
Speaker 1: a quarterback in the first round doesn't play at some

1218
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 1: point this rookie season, and as we've seen as a

1219
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,160
Speaker 1: general rule, it's usually sooner rather than later. Even though

1220
01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 1: they always talk about well, let's give this guy some time.

1221
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 1: And then I always laugh, time is like two weeks.

1222
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,880
Speaker 1: And when that happens, I always asked the general manager,

1223
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 1: what took you so long? I mean, if you were

1224
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,200
Speaker 1: gonna play him, might just play from day one. You

1225
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 1: wasted two weeks. But you know, Patrick Mahomes sitting behind

1226
01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 1: Alex Smith. We will rarely see that happen again. So well,

1227
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 1: let's see how long it takes. But to begin with,

1228
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident the Patriots are counting on Cam to

1229
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 1: be the starter and mac Jones to come in from there.

1230
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,720
Speaker 1: But again, it will see how the season breaks down.

1231
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:31,920
Speaker 1: But if you talk about a lead athletic trade, Zach

1232
01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: Wilson has all of those things in New York, and

1233
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 1: I thought the Jets did a really nice job of

1234
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 1: trying to surround him. Now, I think going to getting

1235
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: Vera Tucker may not have been that sexy, you know,

1236
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:46,800
Speaker 1: big play guy. I think a lot of people in

1237
01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:48,720
Speaker 1: the Jets land were saying, go give me, go get

1238
01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,040
Speaker 1: us the runner, you know, get us in etn or

1239
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 1: Naji Harris or someone. If the Jets had stayed at

1240
01:07:54,680 --> 01:07:57,840
Speaker 1: what twenty three I think it was, that might have

1241
01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,400
Speaker 1: been a possibility, but when they moved up to a team,

1242
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 1: there was no doubt in my mind they were going big.

1243
01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:05,200
Speaker 1: And that's what you do for a young quarterback. You

1244
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:07,720
Speaker 1: surround him with people who will help him. And Elijah

1245
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 1: Vera Tucker will do exactly that. I say, he plugged

1246
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 1: right in at one of the guard spots, probably the

1247
01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:16,240
Speaker 1: left guard, to go next to McKay Beckton and starts

1248
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 1: day one, And I think that that's a heck of

1249
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,640
Speaker 1: a deal for a young quarterback to get that, and

1250
01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,719
Speaker 1: coupled with you know, moves and free agency, Corey Davis

1251
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:28,480
Speaker 1: coming from Tennessee. Denzel Mims rookie year was was very disjointed.

1252
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 1: So in a sense he gets almost a due over there.

1253
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:34,280
Speaker 1: And if those guys developed for him, now you've got

1254
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 1: a chance. You know, you start to get there. But

1255
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:38,880
Speaker 1: you got big people in front. So and by the way,

1256
01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 1: we all know you'll deal with Zach Wilson from day one,

1257
01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 1: he's going back Joe Burrow. They just hand him to

1258
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,439
Speaker 1: playbook in the ball as soon as they called his name,

1259
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 1: that's write. And also in the AFC east of Miami Dolphins,

1260
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:52,439
Speaker 1: they go out and they get their receiver for Tuah

1261
01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:58,000
Speaker 1: and also an edge rusher and Jalen Phillips Jalen Waddle,

1262
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,120
Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips, What did you think about the Jalen wat

1263
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:05,080
Speaker 1: grabbed there for the Miami Dolphins took him ahead of

1264
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:09,160
Speaker 1: Davante Smith and some of the other guys available. Uh,

1265
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 1: heat this and I when you watch it, when you

1266
01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:13,320
Speaker 1: kind of get into it, you kind of see why.

1267
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about the Miami Dolphins. Both the

1268
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,080
Speaker 1: Jets and the Dolphins with a ton of capital this

1269
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 1: in this draft, and they seemed to have a really

1270
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:24,120
Speaker 1: good plan that they're both stuck with. Yeah, yeah, Steve,

1271
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,600
Speaker 1: I think you're right about that, and I love that observation.

1272
01:09:27,920 --> 01:09:30,080
Speaker 1: And let's start with Miami. The reason I think they

1273
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:32,479
Speaker 1: took Waddle instead of Davante Smith is if you look

1274
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:36,639
Speaker 1: at what Miami already has in place. They got those bigger,

1275
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:41,640
Speaker 1: stronger receivers like a DeVante Parker, like a Preston Williams

1276
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:43,800
Speaker 1: that they're counting on getting full health again. You know,

1277
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 1: if Parker was two thousand, nineteen, one thousand yard guy,

1278
01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:49,839
Speaker 1: that's what they drafted. But they don't have that flat

1279
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:53,240
Speaker 1: out blazer because Jachim Grant is much more of an

1280
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 1: inspector gadget guy. You know what I mean, You can't

1281
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,559
Speaker 1: full time play him. You trying to come up and

1282
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:04,520
Speaker 1: create play scheme things, reverses, jet sweeps, you know, bubble screens.

1283
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:08,599
Speaker 1: But this guy is a pure flat out receiver who

1284
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,400
Speaker 1: can go. And we were talking about it. What's the

1285
01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:15,640
Speaker 1: young kid's name Schwartz, Anthony Schwartz from Auburn who was

1286
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: a legit track guy. Because I made the point on

1287
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,719
Speaker 1: the thing because it's been a pet peeve of mine

1288
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 1: that we as announcers and I include myself, every time

1289
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,000
Speaker 1: we see a fast guy. We talked about him having

1290
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,479
Speaker 1: world class speed and relying because world class speeds a

1291
01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:36,280
Speaker 1: whole different speed. Okay, NFL fast is incredible, right, you

1292
01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,720
Speaker 1: put them on a track, they get smoked by legitimate

1293
01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:43,040
Speaker 1: track people. Schwartz is a legitimate track guy. You know what.

1294
01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:47,679
Speaker 1: I was told that Jalen Waddle on the GPS was faster.

1295
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 1: So how do I tell you something right there? Okay?

1296
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:53,160
Speaker 1: And we don't talk about Waddle in his track career

1297
01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: at Alabama. We just talk about him being that guy.

1298
01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 1: So I think that's why they grabbed him to just

1299
01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:01,400
Speaker 1: go ahead and and try and blow the tops off

1300
01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 1: of defenses. Getting Jalen Phillips at eighteen huge to me.

1301
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:08,280
Speaker 1: The best pure pass rusher in the draft. The issue

1302
01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:11,799
Speaker 1: for him has been injuries in the past and truly

1303
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 1: one year of major production because at UCLA, you guys know,

1304
01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:17,920
Speaker 1: he was dinged all the time. And I'm not saying

1305
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 1: that disparagingly, he just was. You know, there's concussions. Would

1306
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 1: UCLA clear him again? He had the one year with

1307
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:28,320
Speaker 1: Greg Russeau opting out. He actually even took Russo's number

1308
01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 1: fifteen and had a heck of a year. But I

1309
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:32,880
Speaker 1: thought he's the best pure pass rusher and they get

1310
01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 1: him at eighteen was a big deal. But I think

1311
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 1: one of their underrated moves was getting Leah Eikenberg the

1312
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,599
Speaker 1: tackle out in Notre Dame because getting him at picked

1313
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,960
Speaker 1: number forty two in the second round, they just announced

1314
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:47,559
Speaker 1: that Robert Hunt was going to be moved from tackle

1315
01:11:47,600 --> 01:11:51,280
Speaker 1: to guard. Perfect, he goes inside, he's a guard with

1316
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:55,720
Speaker 1: Solomon Kinley. Okay, he got the center. Now Scura who

1317
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 1: came over from Baltimore. He draft Austin Jackson from USC

1318
01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 1: at left town the last year, and now you plug

1319
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 1: in Eikenberg at right. Tackle. It fits what they were

1320
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:06,639
Speaker 1: looking for. So I like what they did in their draft.

1321
01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:08,280
Speaker 1: And I know you asked them about the Jets and

1322
01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:10,880
Speaker 1: let me let me pull them up real quick, because

1323
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,679
Speaker 1: all the swimming through my mind, it should be firmly

1324
01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:17,519
Speaker 1: there right now. I'm just trying to battle everything else.

1325
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 1: But we've talked about Wilson and Vera Tucker, Elijah More

1326
01:12:21,080 --> 01:12:24,439
Speaker 1: the wide receiver is huge, another slot target for a

1327
01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 1: young quarterback. They're gonna need their tight end Herndon to

1328
01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,800
Speaker 1: play better. That's guy he's got to jump up and

1329
01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:33,479
Speaker 1: help the young QB. But I like what they did

1330
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 1: overall through their draft, and I think one of their

1331
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:40,000
Speaker 1: underrated guys is the safety out of Auburn Sherwood, because

1332
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 1: it would be internest see how they play him, whether

1333
01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:44,160
Speaker 1: they play him at safety or if he's one of

1334
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 1: those safeties that moves up the linebacker. You remember we

1335
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:50,960
Speaker 1: started that kind with Mark Barron or that undersize, you know,

1336
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:54,000
Speaker 1: will linebacker who can play and keep him out of coverage.

1337
01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: Jonathan Abram at Las Vegas hed better be thinking about

1338
01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:00,479
Speaker 1: that as well. We're talking about Dallas County New Neil.

1339
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 1: They're talk about doing that with him now I think

1340
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:06,680
Speaker 1: Sherwood may fit in there nicely for the Jets. That way, Charles,

1341
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:09,320
Speaker 1: as we move through the draft fans, you know, they

1342
01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 1: gravitate to the first and second round picks understandably, so

1343
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 1: they're the ones that are getting the most mentioned. But

1344
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:17,120
Speaker 1: maybe to help out Bills fans today with some of

1345
01:13:17,160 --> 01:13:21,200
Speaker 1: the Day three picks that they made, chiefly Stevenson, Hamlin

1346
01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 1: and wild Goose, who all come off the board in

1347
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 1: round six. There for the Bills, just give me your

1348
01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 1: thumbnail sketch on what you think about those guys prospects

1349
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:33,920
Speaker 1: here at the next level and with this roster. Well,

1350
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 1: Stevenson can run and that sounds stupid, and when talk

1351
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 1: about wide receivers, but you guys know and steven can

1352
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:43,600
Speaker 1: analyze it better than anyone. We're talk about the real flyers,

1353
01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:46,280
Speaker 1: the guys who are the route runners. Understand their speed is,

1354
01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, the normal NFL speed, and they have to

1355
01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:52,240
Speaker 1: be craftier and what they do and getting open. Stevenson

1356
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 1: is a guy who who can run a little bit.

1357
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:55,559
Speaker 1: You can see him pulling away right there, so I

1358
01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:59,280
Speaker 1: like him hambling the dB out of Pittsburgh. Well, last

1359
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,439
Speaker 1: year you did pretty well get Dane Jackson. I thought

1360
01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,880
Speaker 1: he jumped in really well for you. Dane, I saw

1361
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 1: is more of a nickel guy, but he did. He

1362
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:08,960
Speaker 1: quitted himself well. Outside Hamilt's gonna have to do the

1363
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:12,919
Speaker 1: same thing. And while Goose he's better. His name is terrific,

1364
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 1: but he's better than his name. Just think about it

1365
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:20,559
Speaker 1: this way. Let's be stereotypical, but we're on target. He's

1366
01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,599
Speaker 1: a big ten corner, which means what he's gonna tackle

1367
01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:27,080
Speaker 1: some people. Okay, I know stereotypical, but he will actually

1368
01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 1: tackle some people and things will be okay. That way

1369
01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 1: makes nice plays on the football down field. Underrated for

1370
01:14:33,040 --> 01:14:35,000
Speaker 1: me was your seventh round pick at Texas Tech, and

1371
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:38,320
Speaker 1: that's Jack Anderson. Because I know that the Bills were

1372
01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 1: looking for competition across that offensive line and they had

1373
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,599
Speaker 1: to do a lot of mixing and matching last year

1374
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:47,040
Speaker 1: to get things right, and they did a great job

1375
01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:49,800
Speaker 1: of it. But I really like what they've done there.

1376
01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,360
Speaker 1: And Spencer Brown earlier and me, I know you wanted

1377
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:55,479
Speaker 1: these late round guys. I'm a huge Spencer Brown fan.

1378
01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: I made one of those bold statements on Path to

1379
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,479
Speaker 1: the Draft a couple of weeks ago that Spencer Brown

1380
01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 1: from Northern Iowa and Ellerson Smith from Northern Iowa offensive tackle,

1381
01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:08,360
Speaker 1: defensive end, would both played ten would both start ten

1382
01:15:08,439 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 1: or more games the rookie years. Now. I don't expect

1383
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 1: that as much now because the worse Spencer Brown went,

1384
01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 1: because you guys are in great shape at the offensive

1385
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:22,439
Speaker 1: tackle spot. But if something does happen, I think this

1386
01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 1: kid's gonna be a heck of a player and his

1387
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:32,720
Speaker 1: growth and go ahead, and let's use the buzzword his upside.

1388
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:35,920
Speaker 1: I talked to probably five different offensive line coaches and

1389
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 1: his name came up independently over all five because of

1390
01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:42,120
Speaker 1: the one question I asked them. All was named some

1391
01:15:42,160 --> 01:15:44,559
Speaker 1: of these guys you're watching that you would be eager

1392
01:15:44,600 --> 01:15:47,240
Speaker 1: to coach. And his name came up independently with five

1393
01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:52,120
Speaker 1: different offensive line coaches in the league without me prompting them. Wow,

1394
01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:55,400
Speaker 1: that's something else. And Brandon being basically said he's essentially

1395
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 1: the swing tackle. Day one here, somebody gets hurt, he's

1396
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:03,960
Speaker 1: in and by the way, if he gets in, I

1397
01:16:04,439 --> 01:16:06,200
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be hard to get him out. I

1398
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:08,960
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be one of those situations that you

1399
01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:11,559
Speaker 1: will see. Yeah, maybe he'll make a few mistakes for

1400
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,240
Speaker 1: you early. Because he's young, and you remember he opted

1401
01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:16,760
Speaker 1: out in twenty twenty. He's got a ways to go.

1402
01:16:17,080 --> 01:16:19,839
Speaker 1: But remember he opted out, hadn't played since twenty nineteen,

1403
01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:24,080
Speaker 1: thought about transferring to another program, didn't do it, showed

1404
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:25,559
Speaker 1: up at the Senior Bowl and had a heck of

1405
01:16:25,600 --> 01:16:27,840
Speaker 1: a Senior Bowl week. That was big. How he picked

1406
01:16:27,880 --> 01:16:29,880
Speaker 1: things up there. And I think he's one of those

1407
01:16:29,960 --> 01:16:33,880
Speaker 1: quick study guys that once you get in you don't

1408
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:38,360
Speaker 1: want Wally pip yourself exactly because you mess from trouble

1409
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:40,719
Speaker 1: getting getting that spot back. You guys, I'm not saying

1410
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: that he's going to get it right away. He'll be

1411
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,400
Speaker 1: a swing guy to begin with him. One of those

1412
01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:46,479
Speaker 1: guys gets a headache and misses a practice, they may

1413
01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 1: never get it back on the field, right, Yeah, that's exactly.

1414
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,479
Speaker 1: You better take a couple of etcetera and etcetera, and

1415
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:54,120
Speaker 1: very strong, you know, extra strength, and go out there

1416
01:16:54,120 --> 01:16:56,559
Speaker 1: and practice. What do you think my advice in general?

1417
01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:58,600
Speaker 1: H And I know Trevor Lawrence is going to be

1418
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:01,719
Speaker 1: the headline for whatever we remember about the twenty twenty

1419
01:17:01,720 --> 01:17:04,360
Speaker 1: one draft. What do you think in general this class?

1420
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:06,919
Speaker 1: What do you think what are you gonna remember about it?

1421
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,040
Speaker 1: What's what's gonna be its personalities in the next three

1422
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:11,280
Speaker 1: years of these guys, what do you think is going

1423
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:13,880
Speaker 1: to stand out about it? And you talk about the

1424
01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,639
Speaker 1: quarterback Steve No talking about even in general, whether it's

1425
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:18,840
Speaker 1: going to be there were fifteen offensive lineman taking in

1426
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:21,160
Speaker 1: the first two rounds of this draft. Five quarterbacks in

1427
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:23,760
Speaker 1: the first round. You know, a couple of running you know,

1428
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 1: there's a light running back, no defensive tackles really in

1429
01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:28,880
Speaker 1: the first round. So what do you think we're gonna

1430
01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 1: remember about this draft in three years? I think I

1431
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,439
Speaker 1: think obviously the quarterbacks define it because it was so huge.

1432
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:36,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we talk about five in the in the

1433
01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:40,200
Speaker 1: first round, five in the first fifteen picks, and frankly,

1434
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 1: we thought it'd be five in the first ten picks

1435
01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:44,360
Speaker 1: because we thought there'd be more activity where someone would

1436
01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:47,639
Speaker 1: come up. But once the Niners didn't take mac Jones

1437
01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:52,440
Speaker 1: at three, that's where we all wonder what would the

1438
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:55,519
Speaker 1: slide for lack of a better term be for him,

1439
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:57,280
Speaker 1: And it really was in the slide he couldn't have

1440
01:17:57,320 --> 01:18:00,120
Speaker 1: gone to a better situation for himself. But we were

1441
01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,320
Speaker 1: wondering if New England did the normal, which is not

1442
01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:04,800
Speaker 1: take a quarterback. But then we had to remember they

1443
01:18:04,960 --> 01:18:06,880
Speaker 1: take a quarterback all those years because he had Tom Brady.

1444
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:08,760
Speaker 1: Why would you take a quarterback in the first round.

1445
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:11,559
Speaker 1: You just don't do that. That's going to be part

1446
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:14,120
Speaker 1: of the personality, Steve. You mentioned the offensive lineman in

1447
01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:16,880
Speaker 1: the number that we're taken in most years, what we

1448
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,120
Speaker 1: would say, or I should say, an old school football

1449
01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:21,400
Speaker 1: with all those offensive linemen, you would think a bunch

1450
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 1: of runners would follow up. Because you're getting bigger, physical

1451
01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:28,000
Speaker 1: and all that. We're just about protecting these qbs. We're

1452
01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,360
Speaker 1: making sure they're upright and they can throw the football.

1453
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:33,640
Speaker 1: The run on running backs came way later. It was

1454
01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:36,639
Speaker 1: actually rounds four through seven. We only had four running

1455
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:40,000
Speaker 1: backs going to first three rounds, which was staggeringly stunning

1456
01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:42,519
Speaker 1: to me, but it's the way it tells you how

1457
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:46,120
Speaker 1: we're playing the game nowadays. As well. Defensive tackles. We

1458
01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:48,639
Speaker 1: knew that was gonna be a struggle for those guys,

1459
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,599
Speaker 1: and it played out that way. They didn't go early,

1460
01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 1: and I think that when you get back to surprises.

1461
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:58,320
Speaker 1: We talked about Las Vegas, we talked about New Orleans.

1462
01:18:58,600 --> 01:19:01,920
Speaker 1: I think Las Vegas to be the most glaring because

1463
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 1: Alex Leatherwood is going to start at right tackle day

1464
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:07,519
Speaker 1: one for them. Dwayne Brown and not Dwayne Brown, but

1465
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,360
Speaker 1: Trent Brown went back to New England. He was supposed

1466
01:19:10,400 --> 01:19:14,560
Speaker 1: to be that rock on the right side. They drafted Leatherwood.

1467
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:17,280
Speaker 1: They had conviction, and as I said on draft night,

1468
01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 1: when a team has conviction, sometimes they don't give a

1469
01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:25,280
Speaker 1: flip what we think. Travis Frederick came to mind with Dallas.

1470
01:19:25,320 --> 01:19:27,479
Speaker 1: You guys remember the night he got drafted. The whole

1471
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,320
Speaker 1: league went, what you can get him in the second

1472
01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:33,240
Speaker 1: or third round. Remember when the world I remember when

1473
01:19:33,240 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 1: Seattle drafted Bruce Irvin. He's too light, he's to this,

1474
01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:40,840
Speaker 1: he's to that your scheme, And that's what it does

1475
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,200
Speaker 1: with Las Vegas because they're gonna want to run the

1476
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: ball with John Gruden. But for them to come back

1477
01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:48,080
Speaker 1: in the second round and still get the top safety

1478
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:51,640
Speaker 1: in the draft, Treyvon Morrig marek from my TCU who

1479
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:55,800
Speaker 1: I thought they should have grabbed a seventeen. They ended

1480
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:57,760
Speaker 1: they may have the last laugh on us. When it's

1481
01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:01,480
Speaker 1: all said Charles with respect to full those top two picks,

1482
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:05,880
Speaker 1: you know, with Rousseau and Boogie Basham. Yes, playing off

1483
01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:08,559
Speaker 1: your comment about scheme, we know this is a heavy

1484
01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 1: rotational system here with Leslie Frazier as far as his

1485
01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:13,360
Speaker 1: front four goes, I mean they rotate all the time.

1486
01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 1: It's a big number if one of their starters plays

1487
01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,160
Speaker 1: fifty five percent of the snaps in a giving game.

1488
01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:23,839
Speaker 1: So with that in mind, how much do you expect

1489
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:26,800
Speaker 1: to see Rousseau and bash him on the field for

1490
01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:31,200
Speaker 1: this team as rookies, one of them will have to

1491
01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 1: emerge as the guy in terms of when you go

1492
01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:38,519
Speaker 1: quote unquote NASCAR set, you know, when meaning on the

1493
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 1: defensive front, when we get into those sub and nickel

1494
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:44,120
Speaker 1: packages that we want to rush the passer because now

1495
01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:48,120
Speaker 1: you're chasing second, second and third reaction quarterbacks in your

1496
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:53,040
Speaker 1: own division, meaning you know, Cam just wrestling him to

1497
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:55,360
Speaker 1: the ground. He may not be as much a second,

1498
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:58,760
Speaker 1: third reaction as more like Big Ben in his prime,

1499
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:01,880
Speaker 1: where he just shakes you off and still makes a plat.

1500
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:04,840
Speaker 1: But Cam can now still hoof it too. But when

1501
01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:07,880
Speaker 1: you talk about two in Miami and now you're adding

1502
01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:12,040
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, those are second and third reaction quarterbacks. So

1503
01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:14,840
Speaker 1: what I mean by one of them having to emerge

1504
01:21:15,080 --> 01:21:17,720
Speaker 1: because I don't see Jerry Hughes and Mauriol Addison wanting

1505
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:20,880
Speaker 1: to give up snaps to rush the quarterback. Okay, they're

1506
01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:24,360
Speaker 1: still able to get that done. Does Ed Oliver stay

1507
01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 1: on the field as you're inside presence and does he

1508
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:30,800
Speaker 1: up his game to what we expected Oliver to be.

1509
01:21:31,479 --> 01:21:34,760
Speaker 1: We saw flashes, but we didn't see the consistency. In

1510
01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:37,040
Speaker 1: my opinion, I think that you you know, if he

1511
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:39,840
Speaker 1: does that, then you add one more of these guys

1512
01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:42,680
Speaker 1: as one of your pass rushers for four and go

1513
01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:44,960
Speaker 1: get them. Now, if you really want to do something,

1514
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 1: you can put five on the field and have one

1515
01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:49,080
Speaker 1: of them say aft like as a stand up linebacker.

1516
01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:52,559
Speaker 1: And to me, Rousseau was much more that guy because

1517
01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:56,240
Speaker 1: of his ability and passed as a wide receiver, safety,

1518
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 1: his ability to stay on his feet and play that way.

1519
01:21:58,640 --> 01:22:02,400
Speaker 1: Boogie Basham's more of your power forward tight end type

1520
01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,560
Speaker 1: of a kid that came in and played. He's a

1521
01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:07,360
Speaker 1: little bit thicker and stouter than the Russeau is that

1522
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,200
Speaker 1: way we shall see. But Boogie Basham, you know he

1523
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:12,920
Speaker 1: had dreams of being a power forward the NBA. He

1524
01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 1: learned as he went to wake Forest's kind of the

1525
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:18,040
Speaker 1: old coach pulls you assigns his son. I know you

1526
01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:20,920
Speaker 1: want to play that basketball, but I have a question

1527
01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:22,760
Speaker 1: for you. When you're an adult, you want to drive

1528
01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:26,000
Speaker 1: a Hundare you want to drive a Mercedes? Right? If

1529
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:28,080
Speaker 1: you want to driving Mercedes, you put your hand in

1530
01:22:28,120 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 1: the ground, go rush the passer. And that's what Boogie

1531
01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:34,599
Speaker 1: Basham did. Good advice. One last thing, because I know

1532
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:37,479
Speaker 1: you guys have a lot of fun because the days

1533
01:22:37,520 --> 01:22:40,599
Speaker 1: getting long sitting on the set there. But my god,

1534
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:43,439
Speaker 1: did anybody steal the show better than the Macho Man?

1535
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 1: My goodness, Bacho fan from Cleveland. Yeah, he was. He

1536
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: was big time And the best part about him was

1537
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:57,879
Speaker 1: when the commission came out. This is just my own opinion.

1538
01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 1: When the commissioner came out, he shook the commission's hand

1539
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:06,280
Speaker 1: and then kind of gave him the wave to the

1540
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:10,640
Speaker 1: to the microphone instead of taking him and dropping a

1541
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 1: big elbow on him like I thought he might do.

1542
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:15,200
Speaker 1: You know, I thought he might jump on the commission's

1543
01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:17,600
Speaker 1: chair and come off the chair and hit him with

1544
01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:21,080
Speaker 1: the big elbow like the immortal rest in Piece. Randy

1545
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 1: the Macho Man Savage did but as I told everyone, yeah,

1546
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 1: the macho man was great in the ring, but I

1547
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:28,960
Speaker 1: thought he was terrific as bones Saw McGraw and the

1548
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:31,879
Speaker 1: Spider Man movie. I mean he was. He was awestome.

1549
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:35,320
Speaker 1: And when he grabbed the mic and and and the

1550
01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:38,640
Speaker 1: guy said is anybody ready to take on Bonesaw? And

1551
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:42,160
Speaker 1: he grabbed the mic and said, bone Saw he is ready.

1552
01:23:43,080 --> 01:23:45,599
Speaker 1: Always that, I just love how you guys started busting

1553
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 1: out all the eighties wrestling references once you saw him,

1554
01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 1: everybody was getting in on him. Hey you could. I

1555
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:53,880
Speaker 1: don't know if you remember a couple of years ago

1556
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:59,280
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia Bruno Sam Martino made a pick for the Steelers.

1557
01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:04,040
Speaker 1: Oh when well, I missed that and I lost my mind.

1558
01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:07,320
Speaker 1: I was like, you don't find Martino. Guy held the

1559
01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:14,439
Speaker 1: heavyweight title in the WWWP the Worldwide Wrestling Federation before

1560
01:24:14,479 --> 01:24:16,760
Speaker 1: they had to change the name, and he held it

1561
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 1: for about eight thousand years until his protege Larry's Abisco

1562
01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 1: turned heel on it. Wow, acted ring bringing out the

1563
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,479
Speaker 1: old wrestling knowledge. You are the best man. That is awesome.

1564
01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:33,200
Speaker 1: That was fun watching you guys over the weekend. Thanks

1565

1566
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:39,559
Speaker 1: us some time here. We appreciate it. Oh yeah, let's

1567
01:24:39,600 --> 01:24:42,599
Speaker 1: see you soon, see you man. That's Charles Davis, NFL

1568
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:48,439
Speaker 1: Network Draft analyst, NFL analyst on CBS and also the

1569
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:53,160
Speaker 1: voice color commentator for Madden. Yeah. Um, that was awesome.

1570
01:24:53,200 --> 01:25:00,040
Speaker 1: When the macho fan up the hair, he picked the

1571
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 1: right persona to impersonate, no doubt about it. Believe you could. Yeah,

1572
01:25:06,240 --> 01:25:08,880
Speaker 1: he could pull it off. And this was impromptu, right.

1573
01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 1: I don't think he was like he was designated. He

1574
01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:13,400
Speaker 1: just jumped up in the chair. What they did early

1575
01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:15,120
Speaker 1: was they just had something. They picked one of the

1576
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,760
Speaker 1: fans from each Each team had like twelve people there,

1577
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 1: and you know they just picked one of them, and

1578
01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:22,559
Speaker 1: you know, he who else are you gonna pick it? Right?

1579
01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:25,439
Speaker 1: He was awesome. Who else are you gonna pick to

1580
01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:27,760
Speaker 1: go up on stage other than this? Even the cameraman's

1581
01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:31,320
Speaker 1: like spinning around. They kind of enhancing the whole thing.

1582
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:33,760
Speaker 1: It's like, what are we gonna? Yeah, Okay, here we go,

1583
01:25:33,880 --> 01:25:39,000
Speaker 1: let's yeah. Uh what do you think that drafting? Before

1584
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:40,240
Speaker 1: we go to break it? What do you think? I

1585
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:42,640
Speaker 1: thought the draft came off really well in Cleveland. It

1586
01:25:42,680 --> 01:25:45,040
Speaker 1: was seemed more normal, seemed the weather wasn't great one

1587
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 1: of the two days, the first or second day there,

1588
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,639
Speaker 1: I can't remember, but they you know, sun came out.

1589
01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:53,000
Speaker 1: Third day wasn't warm. But I know they're they were

1590
01:25:53,040 --> 01:25:55,600
Speaker 1: expecting fifty five thousand fans. I think they had. They

1591
01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,320
Speaker 1: said the rough estimates every day were about thirty thirty

1592
01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:01,679
Speaker 1: five thousand, coming off a pandemic. I don't think you'd

1593
01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:04,120
Speaker 1: be too disappointed with that. No, the weather, the weather

1594
01:26:04,160 --> 01:26:07,840
Speaker 1: is a big factor, no question. But still for the

1595
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:10,960
Speaker 1: presentation and the broadcast and watching it on TV, I

1596
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:12,800
Speaker 1: loved it. I thought it was where it's going to

1597
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:16,640
Speaker 1: be next year, Vegas, Vegas. I'm sure you want to

1598
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 1: see You want to see a fire show. They're gonna

1599
01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:22,639
Speaker 1: have circue to sole people swinging through fiery hoops and

1600
01:26:22,920 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 1: you know, jettisoning players off trapeeze onto the stage. You

1601
01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,200
Speaker 1: know it's comic, said three words book over the top.

1602
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 1: You just know it. You can't wait. It's gonna be

1603
01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 1: absolutely over the top. All right, I bet it verges

1604
01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:41,240
Speaker 1: on inappropriate. Well, you know what they say, what happens

1605
01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:43,120
Speaker 1: in Vegas stays in Vegas. The only problem is it's

1606
01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:45,960
Speaker 1: gonna be on national TV broadcast. What happens in Vegas.

1607
01:26:46,760 --> 01:26:48,559
Speaker 1: All right, we have to take a break. When we

1608
01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:53,000
Speaker 1: come back, we have to discuss the news that momentarily

1609
01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:58,200
Speaker 1: hijacked the draft, the Aaron Rogers news. Steve and I

1610
01:26:58,240 --> 01:27:00,240
Speaker 1: will get to that when we return. Here on One

1611
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,080
Speaker 1: Bill's Line presented by Kalida Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

1612
01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:18,000
Speaker 1: Welcome back to One Bill's Life. Chris Brown, Steve Jasper

1613
01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:21,720
Speaker 1: with you and here to discuss the news that hijacked

1614
01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:25,519
Speaker 1: the draft. The news came out from Adam Schefter of

1615
01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:30,160
Speaker 1: ESPN that Aaron Rodgers wanted out of Green Bay, would

1616
01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:34,840
Speaker 1: prefer not to play there. Apparently the relationship as a

1617
01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:39,479
Speaker 1: disconnect that can't be repaired, and Peter King was writing

1618
01:27:39,479 --> 01:27:42,280
Speaker 1: about it in his Football Morning An America column today

1619
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 1: just as an update and said rogers discontent, which has

1620
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 1: been well documented, is real. I have heard that Rogers

1621
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:54,000
Speaker 1: has not demanded the ouster of general manager Brian Gutencoust,

1622
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:55,760
Speaker 1: which was a secondary story that came out of this

1623
01:27:55,880 --> 01:28:00,759
Speaker 1: Rodgers fiasco on Sunday. Regardless, this is more I believe

1624
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:03,960
Speaker 1: about the traditional structure of the Packers, a structure that

1625
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: hasn't bent much to give influence to players and that

1626
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:10,799
Speaker 1: hasn't changed much in the last thirty years. He doesn't think.

1627
01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:16,520
Speaker 1: Gutenkous told Peter King he doesn't think the relationship is irreparable.

1628
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:19,639
Speaker 1: He said, that's my opinion, and that's the organization's opinion.

1629
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,000
Speaker 1: We want Aaron to be our quarterback. We're pretty resolute

1630
01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:24,680
Speaker 1: with that. We want to leave every avenue open for

1631
01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:28,360
Speaker 1: that to happen, right, I don't know, Yeah, I mean,

1632
01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:31,280
Speaker 1: King was even saying later in that story Steve that

1633
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,599
Speaker 1: he would be fine not playing this year if they

1634
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:37,360
Speaker 1: refused to trade him and just forego his twenty two

1635
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 1: million dollars salary. Yeah. I don't know if I believe that.

1636
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,840
Speaker 1: But they claim he's such a principled guy that once

1637
01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:45,360
Speaker 1: he sticks his heels in the ground, he's not pulling

1638
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:47,799
Speaker 1: him out. There's all kinds of things in this. It's

1639
01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:54,120
Speaker 1: a he's been there sixteen years and all of this,

1640
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:56,400
Speaker 1: you know, every slight and every time he was like

1641
01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:58,640
Speaker 1: when he was looking sideways at him, every all of

1642
01:28:58,640 --> 01:29:00,479
Speaker 1: those things are now being thrown up up in as

1643
01:29:01,000 --> 01:29:03,400
Speaker 1: you know, final straw that you know, the Jake Kumero

1644
01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:06,640
Speaker 1: thing that you know, you think that's there's always a

1645
01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:08,559
Speaker 1: buffalo connections to people. We'll get to that in a second,

1646
01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:11,120
Speaker 1: but finish your thought. I don't know if I buy

1647
01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:12,920
Speaker 1: how deep the rift is. I think it can all

1648
01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:15,639
Speaker 1: be repaired, no question, But there's no no's no doubt

1649
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:18,960
Speaker 1: either that a guy like Aaron Rodgers carries a lot

1650
01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:23,080
Speaker 1: of sway in the organization, and you can point to

1651
01:29:23,120 --> 01:29:25,360
Speaker 1: a lot of things of them not giving him help

1652
01:29:25,439 --> 01:29:27,640
Speaker 1: or not doing this, form not doing that. He was

1653
01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:29,880
Speaker 1: the MVP last year and he was throwing whoever he

1654
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 1: was throwing too. They were playing pretty well to get

1655
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:39,120
Speaker 1: to the championship game, am I right? So whether there

1656
01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,040
Speaker 1: was a questionable non field goal decision in the playoff game,

1657
01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:45,960
Speaker 1: that's fine. That has nothing to do with him. You

1658
01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:48,479
Speaker 1: think they're just deliberately stabbing him in the back because

1659
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 1: they went for a field goal instead of let him go.

1660
01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:52,519
Speaker 1: That's that's game management. That's that doesn't have anything to

1661
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:54,880
Speaker 1: do with the general manager, the draft picks, you know.

1662
01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:58,400
Speaker 1: And it's like here in Buffalo, we're talking about how

1663
01:29:58,439 --> 01:30:00,160
Speaker 1: they need to they need to stop the run, or

1664
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:02,640
Speaker 1: they need to run the ball better. They did. They

1665
01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:05,000
Speaker 1: made it the championship game, and we're one of the

1666
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,960
Speaker 1: top teams in the league, and he was the MVP.

1667
01:30:07,439 --> 01:30:10,760
Speaker 1: The guys the MVP. They don't have to do things

1668
01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:13,240
Speaker 1: very different to get better, you know, they don't have

1669
01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:15,760
Speaker 1: they They've been doing it just about right for a

1670
01:30:15,800 --> 01:30:17,800
Speaker 1: lot of There are thirty other teams in the league.

1671
01:30:17,800 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 1: They're looking at them going, yeah, I wish we could

1672
01:30:19,439 --> 01:30:22,360
Speaker 1: do that. So as much as Aaron Rodgers wants to

1673
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:26,840
Speaker 1: complicate or complain, I get it. If he wants to

1674
01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,040
Speaker 1: do things different than they have. If if they want

1675
01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:30,680
Speaker 1: to do things different than they have, you can say, well,

1676
01:30:30,680 --> 01:30:32,839
Speaker 1: they would have won a world championship. That's a big statement.

1677
01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:35,479
Speaker 1: We would have won the world championship if we'd have

1678
01:30:35,520 --> 01:30:37,120
Speaker 1: done it the way Aaron wanted him to do it.

1679
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:41,040
Speaker 1: Come on, why didn't you win it last year because

1680
01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:42,760
Speaker 1: of the field goal? You think Aaron had anything to

1681
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 1: do with that. I get it. Aaron Rodgers is unhappy.

1682
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,240
Speaker 1: Everybody's unhappy they didn't win the Super Bowl. Everybody is

1683
01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:52,040
Speaker 1: everybody All of a sudden, every team that got to

1684
01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:54,400
Speaker 1: the championship around all four of those teams, every team

1685
01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 1: that got to the division around all eight of those

1686
01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:59,320
Speaker 1: teams or seven of those eight, all of them think wow,

1687
01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:01,599
Speaker 1: we got some things we gotta fix. No, you don't.

1688
01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:05,760
Speaker 1: You've done everything just about as good as you can do,

1689
01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:07,679
Speaker 1: because there are a lot of things you can't control.

1690
01:31:08,439 --> 01:31:10,599
Speaker 1: You get to the final eight in the NFL, certainly

1691
01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:13,400
Speaker 1: the final four in the NFL, you don't have too

1692
01:31:13,479 --> 01:31:17,720
Speaker 1: much to fix. You're doing things about right. You just

1693
01:31:17,760 --> 01:31:20,439
Speaker 1: gotta play better on the day you play, make the

1694
01:31:20,479 --> 01:31:22,040
Speaker 1: bright decisions on the day. But you can look at

1695
01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:23,439
Speaker 1: the bills and say you should have gone for it

1696
01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:28,000
Speaker 1: on fourth down twice and the packagers are sitting there

1697
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:29,840
Speaker 1: saying you should have kicked you shouldn't have kicked the

1698
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:34,400
Speaker 1: field goal. Okay, but that doesn't mean you start rebuilding

1699
01:31:34,439 --> 01:31:40,840
Speaker 1: the roster. So yeah, Aaron Rodgers, his relationship maybe at

1700
01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:42,800
Speaker 1: odds with the Green Bay package for the minute, But

1701
01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:46,720
Speaker 1: take a deep breath for a minute. Guys, Aaron, you

1702
01:31:46,720 --> 01:31:50,679
Speaker 1: were MVP. You want to like set out a chance

1703
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:54,800
Speaker 1: to go back to back MVP. Just take a deep breath.

1704
01:31:55,280 --> 01:31:58,519
Speaker 1: Our team was really good last year and they're going

1705
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:00,280
Speaker 1: to be really good again this year if you want

1706
01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:05,000
Speaker 1: to be quarterback. So I get all this. This This

1707
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:10,120
Speaker 1: is not Houston, No, it is not. For a lot

1708
01:32:10,160 --> 01:32:13,840
Speaker 1: of there is I think there's a rigidity to the

1709
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:17,520
Speaker 1: way Green Bay as an organization operates. And then secondarily,

1710
01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:23,320
Speaker 1: I think Aaron Rodgers, based on his tenure there and

1711
01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 1: the Green Bay organization may not give a hoot. Who knows,

1712
01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:29,280
Speaker 1: but I think based on his tenure there, he feels

1713
01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:32,280
Speaker 1: he should be clued in on some things like, Hey,

1714
01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:34,519
Speaker 1: we're going to draft a quarterback in the first round

1715
01:32:34,560 --> 01:32:37,599
Speaker 1: and trade up to do it. Just a heads up,

1716
01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:41,599
Speaker 1: just trying to, you know, prepare for the future, you know,

1717
01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:44,040
Speaker 1: when you can't play for us anymore or whatever, you know,

1718
01:32:44,200 --> 01:32:47,880
Speaker 1: phrase it however you want no advanced notice. They just

1719
01:32:48,040 --> 01:32:51,679
Speaker 1: did it. I mean, this guy has been your franchise

1720
01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:54,519
Speaker 1: quarterback for a decade and a half. You don't treat

1721
01:32:54,600 --> 01:32:58,960
Speaker 1: people that way. That's a good point. And so that's

1722
01:32:59,400 --> 01:33:01,599
Speaker 1: that's one of of a number of things. And then

1723
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:04,400
Speaker 1: here was the best part, because I remember looking this

1724
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:08,280
Speaker 1: up when the Bills picked up Jake Kumro off Waivers,

1725
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:13,200
Speaker 1: I believe it was I was looking up things on

1726
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:14,920
Speaker 1: Kumaro just to kind of get a sense for the

1727
01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:16,680
Speaker 1: type of player he was, because we hadn't seen him much.

1728
01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:18,880
Speaker 1: He hadn't played, he hadn't played a ton for Green Bay.

1729
01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:20,760
Speaker 1: He was like their fifth or sixth receiver. He was

1730
01:33:20,800 --> 01:33:23,680
Speaker 1: inactive some weeks. So I was looking stuff up and

1731
01:33:23,720 --> 01:33:26,479
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, Aaron Rodgers loves this guy. I was like, oh,

1732
01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:29,519
Speaker 1: I wonder when he said that. It was the week

1733
01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:33,880
Speaker 1: before they waived him. And now Ian Rappaport from NFL

1734
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 1: Network reported today the Packers releasing Jake Kumero almost immediately

1735
01:33:39,479 --> 01:33:43,519
Speaker 1: after Aaron Rodgers praised him, was described as a quote

1736
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:47,799
Speaker 1: death knell in the relationship. Now you say them waving

1737
01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:49,840
Speaker 1: a fifth or sixth receiver on the roster is the

1738
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:52,599
Speaker 1: final nail on the coffin. I think that gives indication

1739
01:33:52,640 --> 01:33:54,840
Speaker 1: as to how many other nails there were prior to that.

1740
01:33:55,560 --> 01:33:58,160
Speaker 1: And that is just like, oh, so now I tell

1741
01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:00,479
Speaker 1: you who I like on the roster. It's a guy

1742
01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:04,719
Speaker 1: making a minimum salary. And it's bad enough we don't

1743
01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:10,040
Speaker 1: play him more, you release him. Yeah, like that, I

1744
01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:12,640
Speaker 1: can see, man, And let's face it, it's a cumulative

1745
01:34:12,640 --> 01:34:15,000
Speaker 1: effect exactly. I think that's a straw that broke the

1746
01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:17,599
Speaker 1: camel's back. It's you're throwing a first round draft pick

1747
01:34:17,680 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 1: where you could have gotten who knows who in that

1748
01:34:20,520 --> 01:34:22,599
Speaker 1: dre you go back and check, but come on. You're

1749
01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:24,760
Speaker 1: trading up to get a first round draft pick. That's

1750
01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:27,160
Speaker 1: like trading it away and getting a guy you cut

1751
01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:31,360
Speaker 1: in a week. That's how much of a waste that

1752
01:34:31,479 --> 01:34:33,800
Speaker 1: is for the last time. And and you wonder if

1753
01:34:33,800 --> 01:34:38,120
Speaker 1: they'd have gotten a player Green Bay with that first

1754
01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:43,760
Speaker 1: round pick that might have seen the field once last year,

1755
01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:46,280
Speaker 1: if it would have made a difference. That's a legit concern.

1756
01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:49,519
Speaker 1: But then you add that to the relationship where this

1757
01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:51,559
Speaker 1: guy goes, man, I love this receiver. He's doing great. Yeah,

1758
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:53,679
Speaker 1: that's great. We're gonna cut a guy, right, And so

1759
01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:56,000
Speaker 1: you say, well, it's only Jake Kumero, what's the big deal.

1760
01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 1: The big deal is more about the principle of the

1761
01:34:58,840 --> 01:35:02,400
Speaker 1: move that was made. That's basic. As Rogers probably sees it.

1762
01:35:02,400 --> 01:35:06,599
Speaker 1: It's the organization rubbing his lack of control in his face.

1763
01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:11,040
Speaker 1: Oh you love that guy, he's gone. How do you

1764
01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,640
Speaker 1: feel about that? Now go win again? You know what

1765
01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:16,439
Speaker 1: I mean. I think he feels there's time. You know.

1766
01:35:16,720 --> 01:35:20,080
Speaker 1: Have they paid him very well? Yes? Have they extended

1767
01:35:20,080 --> 01:35:22,479
Speaker 1: his contract and made him feel like he's getting fair

1768
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:27,080
Speaker 1: market value for his play? Probably it's everything else around that.

1769
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:29,120
Speaker 1: I think he feels like he should have two or

1770
01:35:29,120 --> 01:35:31,720
Speaker 1: three Super Bowls on his resume by now, and he

1771
01:35:31,760 --> 01:35:34,600
Speaker 1: only has one right and the work a lot was

1772
01:35:34,640 --> 01:35:36,679
Speaker 1: made two over the week. He's got three years left

1773
01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:40,639
Speaker 1: on his deals extension. The club came to him and said, hey,

1774
01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:43,439
Speaker 1: we'd like to do a deal, give in you as

1775
01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:45,200
Speaker 1: a bonus. We can spread out the money, give us

1776
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:47,679
Speaker 1: a little more cap space this room. And he told

1777
01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:51,200
Speaker 1: him to pound salt because he's unhappy with the way

1778
01:35:51,240 --> 01:35:54,920
Speaker 1: they're doing. Because if he's gonna be the MVP of

1779
01:35:54,920 --> 01:35:56,840
Speaker 1: the league, you need to tell him when you're gonna

1780
01:35:56,840 --> 01:35:59,160
Speaker 1: cut one of his receivers and you need to cut

1781
01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:01,320
Speaker 1: and certainly you need to give him a heads up

1782
01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:02,960
Speaker 1: when you're gonna draft a guy in the first round

1783
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:05,240
Speaker 1: to replace and trade up, to do it and trade up.

1784
01:36:05,320 --> 01:36:09,280
Speaker 1: That's yeah, I see all of that. Um Now, he's

1785
01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:11,559
Speaker 1: been a good soldier. Like last year during the season

1786
01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:14,400
Speaker 1: certainly they were winning and everything's honkey dory me. It's

1787
01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:18,280
Speaker 1: counterproductive to his interests as well to be a good

1788
01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:20,280
Speaker 1: to be a bad guy and to bring it to

1789
01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:22,519
Speaker 1: light and start complaining during the middle of a really

1790
01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:24,679
Speaker 1: good season they're having. So he knew he was gonna

1791
01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:29,280
Speaker 1: be an okay guy there, but now in the off season, Um,

1792
01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:33,719
Speaker 1: all that stuff isn't on the table. He's the reigning

1793
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:35,800
Speaker 1: MVP and they come to him and ask him to

1794
01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:40,120
Speaker 1: do the team a solid Yeah, he's like, get the

1795
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:42,240
Speaker 1: hell out of here, all right, so we got we

1796
01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:44,280
Speaker 1: have to get to break. Give me ten second answer.

1797
01:36:44,960 --> 01:36:47,920
Speaker 1: Does Aaron Rodgers played for the Packers in twenty twenty one?

1798
01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:52,839
Speaker 1: Oh yes, absolutely that playing all seven two games there

1799
01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:55,200
Speaker 1: on time. They'll make it work. They'll make it work.

1800
01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:57,559
Speaker 1: They have to. He's an MVP. He's not gonna he's

1801
01:36:57,560 --> 01:36:59,160
Speaker 1: not gonna leave that kind of money on the table.

1802
01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:00,840
Speaker 1: And it's a chance for him to be at historic

1803
01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 1: figure as well, to go out and be MVP again. Okay,

1804
01:37:03,920 --> 01:37:06,639
Speaker 1: you've heard it here. Aaron Rodgers will play for the Packers.

1805
01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:10,400
Speaker 1: It's crazy, yeah, like yeah, between all the quarterback movement

1806
01:37:10,520 --> 01:37:14,400
Speaker 1: that we've seen this offseason, the Deshaun Watson fiasco that

1807
01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:17,599
Speaker 1: is an absolute mess off the field more so than

1808
01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:21,080
Speaker 1: even organizationally. But the organization has its own issues and

1809
01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:24,200
Speaker 1: then this Aaron Rodgers thing is bananas at the quarterback

1810
01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:27,920
Speaker 1: position this offseason and it's not gonna change because you

1811
01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:29,880

1813
01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:34,800
Speaker 1: moment as we get your comments on the tweet sheet

1814
01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:37,960
Speaker 1: in terms of what did you like from the Bill's

1815
01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:41,040
Speaker 1: draft class this weekend and what left you wanting more?

1816
01:37:41,240 --> 01:37:43,120
Speaker 1: And give us a call to at eighth three five

1817
01:37:43,240 --> 01:38:02,519
Speaker 1: fifty step and I back in a moment at a

1818
01:38:02,760 --> 01:38:06,639
Speaker 1: Steve Tasker who has been all over the field, y unique.

1819
01:38:06,640 --> 01:38:08,320
Speaker 1: He was kind of a dual role player for you,

1820
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:15,200
Speaker 1: Steve a blimp. We're not even in the strated here

1821
01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:20,160
Speaker 1: of normalcy. Our number three of a Monday edition of

Speaker 1: tweet sheet to get your thoughts, and we have some

1830
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:54,280
Speaker 1: other things we'll get some thoughts on too, Because New

1831
01:38:54,360 --> 01:38:57,360
Speaker 1: Jersey is doing a very interesting thing with their vaccination

1832
01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:00,680
Speaker 1: rollout down there and we'll get to that shortly, but

1833
01:39:00,960 --> 01:39:02,920
Speaker 1: we want to get your comments on the tweet sheet.

1834
01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:05,599
Speaker 1: What did you like and what left you wanting more

1835
01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:08,080
Speaker 1: from the Bills twenty twenty one draft class and why?

1836
01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:10,559
Speaker 1: And the tweet sheet has always brought to you by

1837
01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 1: Corrigan Moving Systems, the official equipment moving company cover the

1838
01:39:13,880 --> 01:39:18,920
Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Framp and let's go raise, says Marquez Stevenson

1839
01:39:18,960 --> 01:39:22,240
Speaker 1: in the sixth round, was the grandest of thefts, plain

1840
01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:25,960
Speaker 1: and simple. That man is a playmaker. He had twenty

1841
01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:28,919
Speaker 1: seven total touchdowns in his last thirty games at Houston.

1842
01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:32,479
Speaker 1: He is a welcome addition to Buffalo. Steve. I will

1843
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:35,519
Speaker 1: say one thing about him. He is an instant kick

1844
01:39:35,560 --> 01:39:39,400
Speaker 1: return candidate. Let's not forget Andre Roberts is in Houston now.

1845
01:39:39,840 --> 01:39:42,240
Speaker 1: And while you have Isaiah McKenzie is a prone return guy,

1846
01:39:42,680 --> 01:39:44,599
Speaker 1: you don't have a kick return guy. This guy does

1847
01:39:44,600 --> 01:39:48,560
Speaker 1: that three kick returns for touchdowns in his last two seasons. Yeah,

1848
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:51,400
Speaker 1: he's he's got some speed that makes a you know,

1849
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:54,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna make a lot of guys hesitate and back up.

1850
01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:57,719
Speaker 1: And he's he's You saw it a couple of times

1851
01:39:57,720 --> 01:40:00,439
Speaker 1: on his highlight film where he starts out and there's

1852
01:40:00,439 --> 01:40:02,120
Speaker 1: guys that have the angle on him, and man oh

1853
01:40:02,120 --> 01:40:04,479
Speaker 1: man that the angle gets worse and worse and worse,

1854
01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:07,000
Speaker 1: and he opens up space and more space and more space.

1855
01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:10,240
Speaker 1: The longer they run, the more and the open he gets.

1856
01:40:10,680 --> 01:40:12,679
Speaker 1: Guys just cannot catch him. And I get it. He's

1857
01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:14,840
Speaker 1: doing that at a different level, and it's hard to

1858
01:40:14,880 --> 01:40:18,479
Speaker 1: be fast in a fast league. He's going to be

1859
01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:21,960
Speaker 1: pretty fast. He has an eighty two kick return, eighty

1860
01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:24,439
Speaker 1: two yard kick return for a touchdown, a ninety two,

1861
01:40:25,080 --> 01:40:29,320
Speaker 1: and a ninety seven. Did it against North Texas to lane.

1862
01:40:29,960 --> 01:40:33,439
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna remember the third school, but three kick

1863
01:40:33,479 --> 01:40:37,240
Speaker 1: returns for touchdowns in his last two seasons and he

1864
01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:40,759
Speaker 1: averaged just over twenty six yards a return. Now, getting

1865
01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:43,720
Speaker 1: those opportunities, unfortunately are fewer and further between in this

1866
01:40:43,800 --> 01:40:46,720
Speaker 1: league because of you know, moving the kickoup line to

1867
01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:49,360
Speaker 1: the kickoff line to the thirty five, so you don't

1868
01:40:49,360 --> 01:40:51,880
Speaker 1: get as many shots as he used to. But he'll

1869
01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:55,680
Speaker 1: definitely be in the conversation for that, Tiffany says, addressing

1870
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,240
Speaker 1: both lines of scrimmage with athletes on both sides of

1871
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:02,400
Speaker 1: the ball with such size and athleticism as exciting to

1872
01:41:02,479 --> 01:41:06,840
Speaker 1: see the versatility they bring. Gives these guys position flexibility

1873
01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:10,800
Speaker 1: and high ceilings. Another fine draft by the franchise. You know,

1874
01:41:10,840 --> 01:41:12,960
Speaker 1: we heard Charles Davis talk about this Steve. He was

1875
01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:18,639
Speaker 1: singing the praises if Spencer Brown, If Spencer Brown really

1876
01:41:18,680 --> 01:41:21,760
Speaker 1: comes on here in the early going or even just

1877
01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:24,920
Speaker 1: a few weeks into the season, what do you think

1878
01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:29,800
Speaker 1: the likelihood is of Daryl Williams moving inside to like

1879
01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:34,000
Speaker 1: a right guard position and Spencer Brown playing right tackle.

1880
01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:37,760
Speaker 1: Because Daryl Williams has played probably half his career at

1881
01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:41,800
Speaker 1: the guard position, well, it certainly gives him that flexibility.

1882
01:41:43,320 --> 01:41:48,120
Speaker 1: Cody Ford will have to bounce back. Yeah, they're gonna

1883
01:41:48,160 --> 01:41:50,639
Speaker 1: have some They got a lot of veteran guys up front.

1884
01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:52,680
Speaker 1: They they're full of the older guys up front. I

1885
01:41:52,760 --> 01:41:55,960
Speaker 1: have at least two years in the league, right. It's

1886
01:41:56,360 --> 01:41:58,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a hard line to break into. If

1887
01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:00,880
Speaker 1: any of these three off of lineman that they took

1888
01:42:00,880 --> 01:42:03,240
Speaker 1: in this draft can get into their starting lineup, you've

1889
01:42:03,280 --> 01:42:05,479
Speaker 1: got a guy that's going to be a potential Pro

1890
01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:09,720
Speaker 1: Bowl kind of player or one of these guys either,

1891
01:42:09,760 --> 01:42:11,639
Speaker 1: you know, Cody four doesn't come back from his injury

1892
01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:15,280
Speaker 1: or somebody else has an injury or whatever. I'm saying.

1893
01:42:15,280 --> 01:42:17,840
Speaker 1: If it's a straight up competition and everybody's healthy and

1894
01:42:17,960 --> 01:42:19,920
Speaker 1: one of these three young guys gets on the field,

1895
01:42:20,280 --> 01:42:22,800
Speaker 1: it's a coup for them. They got a steal in

1896
01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:25,360
Speaker 1: the draft. How about offensive line to break? How about

1897
01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:28,719
Speaker 1: what Charles Davis said about you know five offensive line

1898
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:32,720
Speaker 1: coaches that he spoke to and they all independently, without solicitation,

1899
01:42:33,640 --> 01:42:36,200
Speaker 1: brought up Spencer Brown when they said, give me a

1900
01:42:36,240 --> 01:42:39,679
Speaker 1: guy you'd love to coach after watching his film, and yeah,

1901
01:42:39,800 --> 01:42:43,160
Speaker 1: five different offenses coaches in this league said his name.

1902
01:42:43,240 --> 01:42:45,679
Speaker 1: We'll talk about it again. He's a real athlete. Yeah,

1903
01:42:46,800 --> 01:42:52,599
Speaker 1: he moves well laterally, Um, he's gotten strong. He's done

1904
01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:55,960
Speaker 1: really And we haven't talked too much about Tommy Tommy Doyle,

1905
01:42:56,040 --> 01:42:58,800
Speaker 1: but you know Tommy Doyle is a guy and that

1906
01:42:58,880 --> 01:43:03,479
Speaker 1: they got in the fourth, fifth round, fifth round. He's

1907
01:43:03,479 --> 01:43:06,280
Speaker 1: got a kind of a nasty streak. He's a chippy

1908
01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:09,080
Speaker 1: player and he's a little bit finishes people too though, right,

1909
01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:10,760
Speaker 1: he's a little These guys are a little bit like

1910
01:43:11,360 --> 01:43:15,240
Speaker 1: John Feliciano and that you know, they they don't mind

1911
01:43:15,320 --> 01:43:20,559
Speaker 1: confrontation and that and at times, you know, when your

1912
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:23,559
Speaker 1: offensive line is continually backing up and pass pro, it's

1913
01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:25,120
Speaker 1: hard for them to flip the switch and start to

1914
01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:30,200
Speaker 1: be aggressive because one's you know, pass pro's protection and

1915
01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:32,800
Speaker 1: it's kind of passive. You know. Run blocking is more

1916
01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:35,280
Speaker 1: attack his attack, and you got to flip flip the switch.

1917
01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:38,240
Speaker 1: And and it's easier to do that when you have

1918
01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:41,240
Speaker 1: guys that are edgy on your offensive line. Maybe an

1919
01:43:41,240 --> 01:43:44,520
Speaker 1: attitude like that with guys like Feliciano, and that attitude

1920
01:43:45,080 --> 01:43:47,320
Speaker 1: can get the running game to be a little more productive.

1921
01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:51,479
Speaker 1: Although I've said a thousand times and people have probably

1922
01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:53,280
Speaker 1: heard it, I'm not for running the ball more. Just

1923
01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:55,639
Speaker 1: run it better. You're not gonna take the ball out

1924
01:43:55,640 --> 01:43:57,640
Speaker 1: of Josh Allen's hand by having him just hand it

1925
01:43:57,680 --> 01:44:00,679
Speaker 1: to somebody else. This is a throwing offense, and so

1926
01:44:01,960 --> 01:44:03,280
Speaker 1: you know, if they can give you something in the

1927
01:44:03,320 --> 01:44:09,000
Speaker 1: run game, it's huge, but only it's only there to

1928
01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:11,599
Speaker 1: help the passing game. Yeah, I mean, I was watching

1929
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:13,639
Speaker 1: the tape of Brown, and I know it's FCS level,

1930
01:44:13,720 --> 01:44:17,720
Speaker 1: so he's not going against giant people, but I mean

1931
01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:20,280
Speaker 1: that guy was making more pancakes and eyehop on Saturday's

1932
01:44:20,360 --> 01:44:24,479
Speaker 1: Man he was just flattening people. Think that's flattening people. Yeah,

1933
01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:26,360
Speaker 1: I think he has a chance to be very, very

1934
01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:29,120
Speaker 1: good and have a very long career. Rusty on the

1935
01:44:29,160 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 1: tweet sheet says, for the most part, I'm happy. I

1936
01:44:31,560 --> 01:44:34,519
Speaker 1: wish they could have gotten Melon fon Wu at corner

1937
01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:37,120
Speaker 1: in round three, but generally happy. They focused on size

1938
01:44:37,120 --> 01:44:40,280
Speaker 1: and athleticism throughout. A little concerned about the small school

1939
01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:43,080
Speaker 1: linement being able to make the roster help in twenty

1940
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:48,120
Speaker 1: twenty one. Loves Stevenson. Kid has dynamic potential. So he's

1941
01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:51,200
Speaker 1: a little worried about the two linemen because as we know,

1942
01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,360
Speaker 1: Brown played at Northern Iowa FCS, the old one double

1943
01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:58,760
Speaker 1: A level, and you've got Tommy Doyle coming from the

1944
01:44:58,760 --> 01:45:03,280
Speaker 1: Mid American Conference, major conference. But I was encouraged hearing

1945
01:45:03,320 --> 01:45:07,200
Speaker 1: that Bill's offensive line coach Bobby Johnson went to Miami

1946
01:45:07,320 --> 01:45:10,920
Speaker 1: University to see Doyle's pro day and is actually an

1947
01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:13,880
Speaker 1: a lump of Miami University as well, so you know,

1948
01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:15,760
Speaker 1: he's got a lot of connections there. Talk to a

1949
01:45:15,760 --> 01:45:20,160
Speaker 1: lot of people, presumably about Doyle, and you know, obviously

1950
01:45:20,200 --> 01:45:25,960
Speaker 1: the scouting department, you know, had parallel thoughts on Doyle

1951
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:28,960
Speaker 1: and you know, he's the fifth round pick. I just

1952
01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:30,519
Speaker 1: liked that he spent two years on the right side

1953
01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:32,599
Speaker 1: and two years on the left side, and you can

1954
01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:35,120
Speaker 1: flip back and forth. I'm not too worried about him

1955
01:45:35,160 --> 01:45:38,600
Speaker 1: being able to do it physically that certainly they'll have

1956
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:41,960
Speaker 1: a little adjustment period like every rookie does. I don't

1957
01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:44,240
Speaker 1: know that it'll be as great an adjustment for them

1958
01:45:44,240 --> 01:45:48,360
Speaker 1: as it would be for say a corner or a

1959
01:45:48,400 --> 01:45:50,840
Speaker 1: wide receiver coming out of those that level of school,

1960
01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 1: of a max school or whatever. I think, because all

1961
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:55,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden you're going against some pretty elite athletes.

1962
01:45:56,320 --> 01:46:03,440
Speaker 1: Comparatively speaking for lineman, though, I think the adjustment physically

1963
01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:10,160
Speaker 1: is less because the space is more confined and and

1964
01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:12,320
Speaker 1: the path you know, when you're not out in space

1965
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:14,519
Speaker 1: so much. Plus the bodies are bigger, and you don't

1966
01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:17,800
Speaker 1: draft those guys like these two guys, Tommy Doyle and

1967
01:46:17,800 --> 01:46:22,520
Speaker 1: and Spencer Brown. I mean, they're physically there, They're physically

1968
01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:24,960
Speaker 1: as good as any they're as big, they're as strong

1969
01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:26,599
Speaker 1: as any of the guys are gonna be going against.

1970
01:46:26,640 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 1: So the only thing they have to adjust to is

1971
01:46:29,800 --> 01:46:31,720
Speaker 1: what they're looking at. They're going to be able to

1972
01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:35,120
Speaker 1: hold up fine physically. So that's why I think big

1973
01:46:35,160 --> 01:46:38,880
Speaker 1: is big, the biggest exactly, the biggest, big, biggest big.

1974
01:46:38,920 --> 01:46:40,439
Speaker 1: Now they may not be able to, you know, make

1975
01:46:40,479 --> 01:46:43,920
Speaker 1: pancakes like you say all the time, like they did

1976
01:46:43,960 --> 01:46:46,479
Speaker 1: in college, but they're still going to be extremely effective

1977
01:46:46,479 --> 01:46:50,439
Speaker 1: and they'll they'll learn how to, you know, they'll set

1978
01:46:50,479 --> 01:46:52,840
Speaker 1: their own bar when they get into the training camp.

1979
01:46:53,360 --> 01:46:55,760
Speaker 1: From Jeremiah on the tweet sheet, I like it all,

1980
01:46:56,240 --> 01:46:59,320
Speaker 1: especially happy that they did as I thought they would

1981
01:46:59,600 --> 01:47:01,760
Speaker 1: and went defensive line with their first two picks and

1982
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:05,120
Speaker 1: did not take a running back. Also really liked the

1983
01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:08,920
Speaker 1: cornerback dbs they picked up. Not the most talked about guys,

1984
01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:12,160
Speaker 1: but the tape looks really good on them. By the

1985
01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:15,479
Speaker 1: running back conversation disappeared rather quickly over the weekend, didn't it.

1986
01:47:15,600 --> 01:47:20,080
Speaker 1: I'm okay with it. We knew that here's the thing

1987
01:47:20,600 --> 01:47:23,120
Speaker 1: we were to point before the draft where they could

1988
01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:26,160
Speaker 1: take anybody they wanted, and Brandon said as much too, Steve,

1989
01:47:26,200 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: I mean he said, look, if the value was right,

1990
01:47:28,439 --> 01:47:30,120
Speaker 1: he was the best person on our board. Yeah, who

1991
01:47:30,120 --> 01:47:31,800
Speaker 1: would have taken a running back? Right? And so a

1992
01:47:31,840 --> 01:47:35,280
Speaker 1: lot of people extrapolated that saying, well, at thirty, certainly

1993
01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:37,479
Speaker 1: the value will be right for one of these guys.

1994
01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:43,800
Speaker 1: Oh not so much. I mean, I'm yeah, and not

1995
01:47:43,920 --> 01:47:47,120
Speaker 1: for anybody else, not for nothing, right, because ETN didn't

1996
01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:50,960
Speaker 1: go until round two, right, So right, So there's that.

1997
01:47:51,880 --> 01:47:55,280
Speaker 1: Nick says, I like the focus on the lines. I'm

1998
01:47:55,320 --> 01:47:57,479
Speaker 1: a football is one and lost in the trenches kind

1999
01:47:57,479 --> 01:47:59,320
Speaker 1: of guy. I would have liked to have seen a

2000
01:47:59,360 --> 01:48:01,639
Speaker 1: corner take in one of the earlier rounds of the draft,

2001
01:48:01,640 --> 01:48:03,680
Speaker 1: though there were a few good ones available in the

2002
01:48:03,720 --> 01:48:09,200
Speaker 1: second and third. But I'll trust beings draft board. Yeah. Again,

2003
01:48:09,320 --> 01:48:12,520
Speaker 1: it's harder when you're drafting at the bottom of the round,

2004
01:48:12,880 --> 01:48:16,559
Speaker 1: you know, because your value on your board is limited

2005
01:48:16,600 --> 01:48:18,479
Speaker 1: to what's at the bottom of the round or at

2006
01:48:18,479 --> 01:48:20,720
Speaker 1: the very top of the next round when you think

2007
01:48:20,720 --> 01:48:24,320
Speaker 1: about it, So you're restricted to a very narrow area

2008
01:48:24,400 --> 01:48:27,040
Speaker 1: in each respective round because of how low you are.

2009
01:48:27,280 --> 01:48:30,120
Speaker 1: The deeper you get into the draft as well, the

2010
01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:33,040
Speaker 1: more muddled it becomes, and where you know, there'll be

2011
01:48:33,080 --> 01:48:35,519
Speaker 1: fewer and fewer teams who think, well, that one was

2012
01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:37,840
Speaker 1: a reach or this one was a bargain. It'll be

2013
01:48:37,880 --> 01:48:41,400
Speaker 1: more of a gray area when you get to the

2014
01:48:40,960 --> 01:48:44,880
Speaker 1: top of one bottom of another rounds and but I'm

2015
01:48:44,880 --> 01:48:47,400
Speaker 1: with a lot of people. I was surprised they waited until,

2016
01:48:47,920 --> 01:48:50,599
Speaker 1: you know, the two hundred and third pick to get

2017
01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:55,160
Speaker 1: their first dB. I thought they might have gotten like

2018
01:48:55,240 --> 01:48:57,720
Speaker 1: the like Melophone from Syracuse. I thought he was a

2019
01:48:57,760 --> 01:49:01,759
Speaker 1: perfect I'm I'm surprised you can grab him at a point.

2020
01:49:01,840 --> 01:49:05,000
Speaker 1: But with him, it's an instinct's thing. At least that

2021
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:06,960
Speaker 1: was the knock on him. I think these guys they

2022
01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:10,439
Speaker 1: got are gonna fit pretty well. Yeah, from JT. The

2023
01:49:10,520 --> 01:49:15,360
Speaker 1: colossal lineman on both sides that we got Boogie Basham

2024
01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:17,320
Speaker 1: and Rousseau are gonna tear it up in this league,

2025
01:49:17,400 --> 01:49:20,880
Speaker 1: especially when Hughes retires. Spencer Brown is an instant hit

2026
01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:24,040
Speaker 1: in Buffalo jumping through that table, and Tasker, you are

2027
01:49:24,160 --> 01:49:27,519
Speaker 1: nostradamis and belong in the Hall of Fame. Go Bills.

2028
01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:30,960
Speaker 1: That's from JT. Did you see Spencer Brown jump through

2029
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:33,719
Speaker 1: the table at the Iowa party night on his front lawn?

2030
01:49:33,840 --> 01:49:37,280
Speaker 1: I did, um. I have to imagine that coach McDermott

2031
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:39,679
Speaker 1: shuddered at the thought of his three hundred and eleven

2032
01:49:39,680 --> 01:49:43,000
Speaker 1: pound new tackle jumping off a table. I bet, I'll

2033
01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:46,240
Speaker 1: bet it didn't bother him too much. I bet you

2034
01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:48,680
Speaker 1: always worry about them doing something that, you know what

2035
01:49:48,760 --> 01:49:51,040
Speaker 1: I mean. It was. It was real touching for me

2036
01:49:51,080 --> 01:49:52,880
Speaker 1: because I can really relate to the fact that, if

2037
01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:55,400
Speaker 1: you haven't seen it on social media, that was Spencer

2038
01:49:55,439 --> 01:49:59,559
Speaker 1: Brown was in his garage in Lennox, Iowa with forty

2039
01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:01,439
Speaker 1: of his cloth and forty of his friends. I mean,

2040
01:50:01,640 --> 01:50:03,760
Speaker 1: you can see the garage doors above their heads. He's

2041
01:50:03,760 --> 01:50:05,599
Speaker 1: got the wind doors open, they got and they got

2042
01:50:05,600 --> 01:50:09,599
Speaker 1: The table behind him is the school for power wire

2043
01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:12,240
Speaker 1: from the from the electric company, which are all over

2044
01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:14,240
Speaker 1: the Midwest where we live out where I do. People

2045
01:50:14,240 --> 01:50:16,680
Speaker 1: grab those and he's got that in the garage and

2046
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:18,040
Speaker 1: all these people are there, and then of course as

2047
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:21,000
Speaker 1: soon as he gets picked, the entire village shows up

2048
01:50:21,000 --> 01:50:22,720
Speaker 1: at his house and they're all in front, you know,

2049
01:50:22,960 --> 01:50:25,439
Speaker 1: and it turns into a table jumping party. It's awesome.

2050
01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:29,639
Speaker 1: I can so relate to this as a kid from

2051
01:50:30,320 --> 01:50:32,599
Speaker 1: you know, I was from western Kansas. The entire county

2052
01:50:32,640 --> 01:50:34,840
Speaker 1: I grew up in had fifteen hundred to two thousand

2053
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:38,000
Speaker 1: people in it. Same as Lennox, Iowa played eight man football.

2054
01:50:38,040 --> 01:50:40,120
Speaker 1: Everybody in town knows, you knows where you live, knows

2055
01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:42,120
Speaker 1: your mom, dad, brothers, sisters, and you know all of

2056
01:50:42,120 --> 01:50:44,759
Speaker 1: their mom's, dad's brothers and cities. It's just it's a village.

2057
01:50:45,760 --> 01:50:47,760
Speaker 1: Kudos to him for having all those people there and

2058
01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:50,519
Speaker 1: letting them share in that moment because that it's pretty

2059
01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:52,960
Speaker 1: cool sort of that that's what the draft is all about.

2060
01:50:53,040 --> 01:50:56,080
Speaker 1: He said thirteen hundred would be generous as an estimate

2061
01:50:56,120 --> 01:51:00,360
Speaker 1: for his town's population there in Lennox. That Iowa. That

2062
01:51:00,560 --> 01:51:05,320
Speaker 1: scene is what the NFL draft absolute about it and

2063
01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:12,520
Speaker 1: fifty percent correct. We mentioned some of the almost miraculous

2064
01:51:12,560 --> 01:51:16,599
Speaker 1: connections that the people in this draft class have with

2065
01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:21,160
Speaker 1: players on the Buffalo roster, whether it was something that

2066
01:51:21,400 --> 01:51:25,160
Speaker 1: was pure happenstance, like Tommy Doyle squaring off against Aj

2067
01:51:25,479 --> 01:51:29,320
Speaker 1: Epinessa in a twenty nineteen game before got to the

2068
01:51:29,360 --> 01:51:32,080
Speaker 1: league his first started left tackle after two years at

2069
01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:36,160
Speaker 1: right tackle, played Epinessa and held his own, so that

2070
01:51:36,280 --> 01:51:38,920
Speaker 1: was kind of a cool connection. We heard about Boogie

2071
01:51:38,960 --> 01:51:42,120
Speaker 1: Basham kind of becoming an acquaintance of Aj as well,

2072
01:51:42,160 --> 01:51:44,080
Speaker 1: and they were texting back and forth over the last

2073
01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:47,280
Speaker 1: calendar year and kind of know each other relatively well.

2074
01:51:47,760 --> 01:51:52,360
Speaker 1: And then we had Marquez Stevenson, who had two connections

2075
01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:56,800
Speaker 1: to the Bill's roster. First, he was not only at

2076
01:51:56,800 --> 01:51:59,759
Speaker 1: Oliver's teammate at the University of Houston, they were roommates

2077
01:51:59,760 --> 01:52:04,439
Speaker 1: on campus, like they're butts. Yeah, and so he was

2078
01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:08,200
Speaker 1: he marveled at that. But then it went a step further.

2079
01:52:08,920 --> 01:52:12,880
Speaker 1: He's from Shreveport, Louisiana, the same town that Tredevious White

2080
01:52:12,960 --> 01:52:18,719
Speaker 1: is from. And he was Tredavius's younger brother's best friend

2081
01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:21,880
Speaker 1: growing up. I mean he's known Tredevious since he's nine

2082
01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:27,439
Speaker 1: years old. Yeah, So Tredevious actually put a message to

2083
01:52:27,560 --> 01:52:30,559
Speaker 1: Marquees on social media. I think he did this on

2084
01:52:30,600 --> 01:52:35,519
Speaker 1: his Instagram handle. So here is Tredavious congratulating his new

2085
01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:43,800
Speaker 1: teammate and shreve fellow, Shreveport native Marquez Stevenson. Maquiz, what's good,

2086
01:52:43,840 --> 01:52:46,880
Speaker 1: bro man? It's a lot that I can say in

2087
01:52:46,920 --> 01:52:50,320
Speaker 1: this moment, but you know it's about to oh man,

2088
01:52:51,439 --> 01:52:54,160

2090
01:52:57,640 --> 01:53:00,599
Speaker 1: as you have, just knowing you from a young age.

2091
01:53:00,720 --> 01:53:03,960
Speaker 1: You know, from playing pop Wanna ball with my young

2092
01:53:04,040 --> 01:53:07,080
Speaker 1: brother and Greedy and Lee Lee and you guys, you know,

Speaker 1: through injury, you better through all the things. And then

2096
01:53:15,120 --> 01:53:17,599
Speaker 1: coming from where we come from, that neighborhood, you know

2097
01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:20,479
Speaker 1: how tough it is, but you battered it out, man,

2098
01:53:20,520 --> 01:53:23,680
Speaker 1: and you learned in a great spot. You're in Buffalo now,

2099
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,320
Speaker 1: so we're gonna embrace you. Man. Just come in where

Speaker 1: it to work and like I know you will because

2101
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:31,080
Speaker 1: you know, coming from where we come from, these chances

2102
01:53:31,120 --> 01:53:33,080
Speaker 1: don't come right often, so we got to take advantage

2103
01:53:33,080 --> 01:53:35,479
Speaker 1: of them. So I'm proud of you. Like I said, man,

2104

Speaker 1: enjoy this time, Enjoy this day, looking forward to seeing you,

01:53:41,560 --> 01:53:46,320
Speaker 1: showing you the way. Go bills and congratulations, bro cover role. Proud.

2107
01:53:46,600 --> 01:53:48,920
Speaker 1: If that Steve is not the picture of the culture

2108
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:51,680
Speaker 1: that exists here, I don't know what it is. Yeah,

2109
01:53:51,720 --> 01:53:56,000
Speaker 1: I mean they have a prior relationship. Okay, so all right,

2110
01:53:56,120 --> 01:53:58,720
Speaker 1: he wants to extend congratulations and everything, but then he

2111
01:53:58,800 --> 01:54:00,960
Speaker 1: talks to him about we're gonna get to work and

2112
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:02,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it together, and I'm gonna help you

2113
01:54:02,760 --> 01:54:04,360
Speaker 1: along the way and all this stuff, and this is

2114
01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:07,040
Speaker 1: the guy who's gonna be lining up across from in practice.

2115
01:54:07,120 --> 01:54:10,760
Speaker 1: You know. UM, I just think that's a that's a

2116
01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:16,759
Speaker 1: very accurate snapshot of the team building that exists here. Yeah,

2117
01:54:16,560 --> 01:54:19,400
Speaker 1: and Turdevius saying, hey, we're gonna we're gonna bring you

2118
01:54:19,439 --> 01:54:23,200
Speaker 1: in and you hug you and you know you're part

2119
01:54:23,240 --> 01:54:25,200
Speaker 1: of the family. Now, it's it's a it's a it's

2120
01:54:25,200 --> 01:54:27,320
Speaker 1: a big step for a guy who was an all pro,

2121
01:54:27,400 --> 01:54:29,400
Speaker 1: an elite corner in the league to reach out to

2122
01:54:29,439 --> 01:54:33,600
Speaker 1: a guy um obviously with a previous relationship, but it

2123
01:54:33,680 --> 01:54:36,800
Speaker 1: is kind of condicative of the mentality the club has.

2124
01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:40,320
Speaker 1: It's a little bit like the mentality we had back

2125
01:54:40,320 --> 01:54:41,920
Speaker 1: in the early nineties when it was a really good

2126
01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:45,000
Speaker 1: roster and young guys would come in. We didn't have

2127
01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:48,120
Speaker 1: any It was kind of normal to have hazing and

2128
01:54:48,120 --> 01:54:50,080
Speaker 1: stuff back then. We kind of did away with that

2129
01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:53,440
Speaker 1: when we were because we we when they were drafted,

2130
01:54:53,520 --> 01:54:56,760
Speaker 1: we embraced them because we knew we would need them immediately.

2131
01:54:57,160 --> 01:55:01,200
Speaker 1: And U you know, I don't know whether you want

2132
01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:02,880
Speaker 1: to say taking it easier, but they were part of

2133
01:55:02,920 --> 01:55:04,960
Speaker 1: the family immediately, and that's what Tordavius kind of reached

2134
01:55:04,960 --> 01:55:07,760
Speaker 1: out and said about Marquez right right then, and you're

2135
01:55:07,760 --> 01:55:10,480
Speaker 1: part of the family. Now, you're you're there's expectations, but

2136
01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:14,240
Speaker 1: there's also benefits. Let me ask you this, because it's

2137
01:55:14,280 --> 01:55:17,880
Speaker 1: always a little bit intimidating, even for the highest of

2138
01:55:17,960 --> 01:55:20,960
Speaker 1: draft choices, to walk into a brand new locker room

2139
01:55:21,040 --> 01:55:24,160
Speaker 1: and have to prove yourself and know where the bathroom is,

2140
01:55:24,680 --> 01:55:27,560
Speaker 1: let alone anything else where, the hecks, the cafeteria, all

2141
01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:31,240
Speaker 1: of that stuff. Housing. When you can walk onto an

2142
01:55:31,320 --> 01:55:34,440
Speaker 1: NFL roster that you were drafted to and you have

2143
01:55:34,800 --> 01:55:38,240
Speaker 1: your college roommate for the better part of two years

2144
01:55:38,280 --> 01:55:42,360
Speaker 1: and then your best friend's older brother on the same roster,

2145
01:55:43,040 --> 01:55:46,160
Speaker 1: how much of a how much does that give a

2146
01:55:46,320 --> 01:55:49,480
Speaker 1: rookie peace of mind having those two things in place

2147
01:55:49,480 --> 01:55:52,240
Speaker 1: for good for him? Man, that that's a huge fortunate right,

2148
01:55:52,360 --> 01:55:57,640
Speaker 1: Like who really people who know you in the room

2149
01:55:57,840 --> 01:56:00,440
Speaker 1: and who are already established and are to you know,

2150
01:56:00,520 --> 01:56:02,240
Speaker 1: get put their arm around your neck and you know,

2151
01:56:02,520 --> 01:56:05,240
Speaker 1: welcome you in and also smooth away for their for

2152
01:56:05,240 --> 01:56:07,080
Speaker 1: everybody else in l and say yeah, he's my he's

2153
01:56:07,080 --> 01:56:08,720
Speaker 1: my guy. He's my boy. Man, I love that guy.

2154
01:56:08,760 --> 01:56:10,760
Speaker 1: We don't have to worry about. Hey, he's he's doing

2155
01:56:10,800 --> 01:56:12,280
Speaker 1: this and he'll start telling the stories about you and

2156
01:56:12,280 --> 01:56:14,200
Speaker 1: all of a sudden they're laughing with you. Now you're

2157
01:56:14,280 --> 01:56:17,080
Speaker 1: part of you feel comfortable. Yeah, uh, there's you know,

2158
01:56:17,320 --> 01:56:19,320
Speaker 1: everybody can relate to being a new person in a

2159
01:56:19,360 --> 01:56:21,400
Speaker 1: new job or a new place or a new school

2160
01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:25,560
Speaker 1: or whatever. And to have that in place, man, oh man,

2161
01:56:25,600 --> 01:56:27,480
Speaker 1: you can just come in and start running right away.

2162
01:56:27,520 --> 01:56:29,440
Speaker 1: And that's it's a it's got to It's gonna be

2163
01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:32,400
Speaker 1: really good for Mark Quiz Stevenson coming into that environment.

2164
01:56:32,440 --> 01:56:34,640
Speaker 1: And it's the same thing for sixth round pick to

2165
01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:37,720
Speaker 1: Marrow Hamlin the safety out of pitt Not only does

2166
01:56:37,760 --> 01:56:40,160
Speaker 1: he have a former teammate on this roster and Dane Jackson.

2167
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:44,080
Speaker 1: Those guys were like Buddy's on the block together. They

2168
01:56:44,120 --> 01:56:48,000
Speaker 1: grew up in the same neighborhood in the suburbs of Pittsburgh.

2169
01:56:48,160 --> 01:56:51,560
Speaker 1: Like he's known that guy since he's seven years old. Yeah,

2170
01:56:51,680 --> 01:56:54,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't ask for something better walking in

2171
01:56:54,280 --> 01:56:58,840
Speaker 1: the door. So it's gonna help those guys immensely to

2172
01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:04,160
Speaker 1: feel comfortable right away. And as this pandemic winds down,

2173
01:57:04,280 --> 01:57:06,280
Speaker 1: that things can be more normal and guys can actually

2174
01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:08,080
Speaker 1: be in the locker room together and sit in meeting

2175
01:57:08,120 --> 01:57:14,480
Speaker 1: rooms together. They will acclimate all the faster um these guys,

2176
01:57:14,480 --> 01:57:17,000
Speaker 1: And it doesn't change the fact, however, that this is

2177
01:57:17,040 --> 01:57:19,160
Speaker 1: going to be a really rough roster to make from

2178
01:57:19,200 --> 01:57:22,440
Speaker 1: top to bottom. But by the same token, a guy

2179
01:57:22,480 --> 01:57:25,200
Speaker 1: who feels comfortable and feels like he belongs really quickly

2180
01:57:25,560 --> 01:57:28,160
Speaker 1: is gonna thrive and you're gonna get the best out

2181
01:57:28,160 --> 01:57:30,320
Speaker 1: of him. And that's that's a lot of what Sean

2182
01:57:30,360 --> 01:57:33,320
Speaker 1: mcdermot's culture has been about, well, right, but it's accentuated

2183
01:57:33,360 --> 01:57:35,520
Speaker 1: on these two guys with the with the relationships they

2184
01:57:35,560 --> 01:57:37,880
Speaker 1: already have in place. Walking in the door, I just

2185
01:57:37,920 --> 01:57:40,120
Speaker 1: think you breathe a whole lot easier when there's a

2186
01:57:40,200 --> 01:57:44,680
Speaker 1: familiar face. But man, we're talking like deep rooted relationships here,

2187
01:57:44,760 --> 01:57:47,000
Speaker 1: Like they're just gonna pick up right where they're left

2188
01:57:47,040 --> 01:57:51,280
Speaker 1: off with those those people. Yeah, it's it goes way

2189
01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:53,040
Speaker 1: beyond that. I mean, these guys are gonna come in

2190
01:57:53,080 --> 01:57:55,520
Speaker 1: and like be ready to like they're gonna feel comfortable

2191
01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:58,040
Speaker 1: where were eating dinner tonight, Like yeah, I mean it's

2192
01:57:58,080 --> 01:58:00,440
Speaker 1: like let's go, let's go, yeah, let's go. Come on,

2193
01:58:00,680 --> 01:58:04,040
Speaker 1: and they'll know as well from their interactions and from

2194
01:58:04,080 --> 01:58:08,520
Speaker 1: their from their own physical skill sets. It's just an

2195
01:58:08,640 --> 01:58:11,520
Speaker 1: environment that they'll be able to thrive much more quickly

2196
01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:14,360
Speaker 1: in than you know, some other guys on other teams

2197
01:58:14,360 --> 01:58:16,600
Speaker 1: who don't know anybody, and they're a little wary, and

2198
01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:18,600
Speaker 1: you know some of the guys are you know, the

2199
01:58:18,880 --> 01:58:20,840
Speaker 1: culture is not exactly nice. And there's some guys on

2200
01:58:20,840 --> 01:58:23,080
Speaker 1: the team where they say, hey, you'll learn the hard way.

2201
01:58:23,120 --> 01:58:24,520
Speaker 1: You know, don't mess with that guy, don't, you know,

2202
01:58:24,560 --> 01:58:26,840
Speaker 1: don't leave him alone, that kind of he doesn't talk

2203
01:58:26,840 --> 01:58:29,280
Speaker 1: to rookies, or that kind of thing that just doesn't

2204
01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:32,000
Speaker 1: exist here in Buffalo. And I think these guys coming

2205
01:58:32,040 --> 01:58:35,080
Speaker 1: in acclimate and thrive a little quicker because of that culture.

2206
01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:37,600
Speaker 1: And these two guys, I mean, I got it, made

2207
01:58:38,120 --> 01:58:41,120
Speaker 1: go home week. Yeah, that's what I mean. It's crazy,

2208
01:58:41,320 --> 01:58:46,760
Speaker 1: It's absolutely crazy. I think that to me, man, my

2209
01:58:46,760 --> 01:58:49,760
Speaker 1: my whole first year would have been a much more

2210
01:58:49,800 --> 01:58:51,480
Speaker 1: of a breeze if i'd have had that employee. Well, yeah,

2211
01:58:51,480 --> 01:58:53,360
Speaker 1: and I'm just now, was John Kidd here when you

2212
01:58:53,360 --> 01:58:56,160
Speaker 1: got here? Yes? Okay, so you had that at least

2213
01:58:56,360 --> 01:58:58,480
Speaker 1: right In fact, I got off the plane, they dropped me.

2214
01:58:58,520 --> 01:59:00,120
Speaker 1: I went to this was your roommate in college for

2215
01:59:00,160 --> 01:59:04,080
Speaker 1: those that don't know, he's a roommate for and I

2216
01:59:04,200 --> 01:59:06,240
Speaker 1: stayed at his house. I didn't have my own place.

2217
01:59:06,280 --> 01:59:11,280
Speaker 1: I stayed with John. Yeah, and but that helped. Oh, absolutely, yeah,

2218
01:59:11,320 --> 01:59:14,120
Speaker 1: for the most part it did. Yeah. Yeah, I mean

2219
01:59:14,320 --> 01:59:16,000
Speaker 1: it didn't make me That's why I was asking. Didn't

2220
01:59:16,520 --> 01:59:19,080
Speaker 1: had that dynamic look other than something other than a

2221
01:59:19,080 --> 01:59:22,880
Speaker 1: fifteen year old kid. But having him there helped. Yeah. Yeah,

2222
01:59:22,920 --> 01:59:26,720
Speaker 1: because I mean, especially mid season going somewhere like That's

2223
01:59:26,720 --> 01:59:28,800
Speaker 1: why I asked you the question, because we've got similar

2224
01:59:28,800 --> 01:59:30,640
Speaker 1: connections here. You went through it, so that's why I

2225
01:59:30,640 --> 01:59:32,720
Speaker 1: wanted to get your thoughts out of guys. I gotta

2226
01:59:32,720 --> 01:59:35,080
Speaker 1: believe it makes a difference. So yeah, that was good.

2227
01:59:35,120 --> 01:59:36,680
Speaker 1: It does. So I think it's gonna be really big

2228
01:59:36,720 --> 01:59:39,000
Speaker 1: for those guys. Break time for us when Steve and

2229
01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:44,120
Speaker 1: I come back. NFL true false some draft related true false.

2230
01:59:44,160 --> 01:59:46,840
Speaker 1: Of course. We'll bring that TNX here on One Bill's Live,

2231
01:59:46,920 --> 02:00:00,280
Speaker 1: presented by Kellot of Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio. Welcome

2232
02:00:00,320 --> 02:00:02,600
Speaker 1: back to One Bill's Live. Chris Brown steep Paster with

2233
02:00:02,680 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 1: you and a couple more comments on the tweet. Cheat

2234
02:00:05,320 --> 02:00:08,880
Speaker 1: just to Pass along to from td Mac or Teddy Mac.

2235
02:00:09,360 --> 02:00:12,960
Speaker 1: There wasn't a lot to dislike, to be honest, talented, big,

2236
02:00:13,360 --> 02:00:17,520
Speaker 1: monstrously big players clearly with future potential austerity in mind,

2237
02:00:17,560 --> 02:00:20,080
Speaker 1: probable kick returner in the fold, plus good young talent.

2238
02:00:20,520 --> 02:00:23,480
Speaker 1: Is there another team is good at developing young talent?

2239
02:00:23,880 --> 02:00:28,440
Speaker 1: Love love love this draft, Go Bills, Marty says, can't

2240
02:00:28,440 --> 02:00:31,840
Speaker 1: have too many big lineman only problem. Can other teams

2241
02:00:31,920 --> 02:00:34,480
Speaker 1: raid our practice squad? I think there will be some

2242
02:00:34,600 --> 02:00:38,240
Speaker 1: very good players on hours. That's a valid concern now

2243
02:00:38,320 --> 02:00:41,360
Speaker 1: with where this roster build is in year five. Yeah,

2244
02:00:41,400 --> 02:00:43,880
Speaker 1: but they'll be guys on their rosters too, I mean

2245
02:00:43,920 --> 02:00:46,360
Speaker 1: the guys on their practice squad. Tea. Yeah, don't worry

2246
02:00:46,360 --> 02:00:48,920
Speaker 1: about the practice squad guys. Worry about your fifty three first,

2247
02:00:48,960 --> 02:00:53,440
Speaker 1: and then yeah, there'll be I agree. One of the

2248
02:00:53,440 --> 02:00:55,720
Speaker 1: things you've been on since the very beginning is in

2249
02:00:55,840 --> 02:00:58,480
Speaker 1: player development. They do a really nice job of it.

2250
02:01:00,400 --> 02:01:02,560
Speaker 1: Case in, there's a bunch of cases in point. You

2251
02:01:02,600 --> 02:01:06,800
Speaker 1: can point to Matt Milano Levi Wallace to begin with

2252
02:01:08,000 --> 02:01:11,360
Speaker 1: an undrafted rookie free agent becoming a three year starter

2253
02:01:11,480 --> 02:01:14,920
Speaker 1: at corner. How about the player development of Tremaine Edmonds

2254
02:01:14,960 --> 02:01:18,920
Speaker 1: interposition he never played before in llege middle linebacker. You're

2255
02:01:19,000 --> 02:01:22,240
Speaker 1: running the show, that's right. And Bob Babbage and the

2256
02:01:22,320 --> 02:01:25,120
Speaker 1: job he's done with that guy. Yeah, and there's other

2257
02:01:25,120 --> 02:01:28,839
Speaker 1: places as well. I mean, I m Gabe Davis stepped

2258
02:01:28,840 --> 02:01:31,680
Speaker 1: onto the field, and I think their ability to tab

2259
02:01:31,880 --> 02:01:35,400
Speaker 1: him as a staff as a guy who was ahead

2260
02:01:35,400 --> 02:01:39,560
Speaker 1: of the curve and come out and let him set

2261
02:01:39,600 --> 02:01:44,040
Speaker 1: the personnel groupings for the franchise. They came out last

2262
02:01:44,120 --> 02:01:46,960
Speaker 1: year and started running four wide more than any other

2263
02:01:47,000 --> 02:01:50,040
Speaker 1: team in the NFL. And there is no other reason

2264
02:01:50,400 --> 02:01:54,640
Speaker 1: other than Gabe Davis. You can say, Josh Allen. They knew,

2265
02:01:54,680 --> 02:01:56,760
Speaker 1: they knew what they had in Josh too before anybody

2266
02:01:56,760 --> 02:01:59,840
Speaker 1: else was on it. But to have a rookie come

2267
02:01:59,880 --> 02:02:03,600
Speaker 1: in and carve out of space because they could have

2268
02:02:03,600 --> 02:02:05,440
Speaker 1: put anybody out there. They could have put you know,

2269
02:02:05,600 --> 02:02:07,560
Speaker 1: running back out there, or two tight ends and had

2270
02:02:07,560 --> 02:02:09,400
Speaker 1: one of them split wide. They could have done anything.

2271
02:02:09,440 --> 02:02:12,720
Speaker 1: They could have put Duke Williams or any other Isaiah McKenzie.

2272
02:02:13,120 --> 02:02:17,320
Speaker 1: But it was Gabe Davis and the four of them

2273
02:02:17,360 --> 02:02:20,560
Speaker 1: went and the team, you know, set franchise records for

2274
02:02:20,560 --> 02:02:22,720
Speaker 1: scoring last year. He scored five hundred points last year.

2275
02:02:22,800 --> 02:02:26,920
Speaker 1: Goodness gracious, I mean that was that's pretty phenomenal. So

2276
02:02:26,960 --> 02:02:29,840
Speaker 1: the player development for the staff and their ability to

2277
02:02:29,960 --> 02:02:34,040
Speaker 1: identify it is has been the difference. And you know,

2278
02:02:34,080 --> 02:02:35,840
Speaker 1: they're in the playoffs three out of the four years

2279
02:02:35,840 --> 02:02:39,360
Speaker 1: the staff's been here. Last comment on the tweet sheet

2280
02:02:39,400 --> 02:02:41,960
Speaker 1: from Points Navigator, I feel like the Bills still need

2281
02:02:42,000 --> 02:02:45,400
Speaker 1: a blocking tight end. Could Spencer Brown replace Lee Smith

2282
02:02:45,440 --> 02:02:48,160
Speaker 1: on running plays and similarly be a sneaky receiver since

2283
02:02:48,160 --> 02:02:50,840
Speaker 1: Brown played tight end for so many years. He played

2284
02:02:50,840 --> 02:02:53,320
Speaker 1: tight end in eight man football because he couldn't play

2285
02:02:53,360 --> 02:02:59,000
Speaker 1: offensive tackle, right, Well, but he's an athlete. Well, yeah,

2286
02:02:59,040 --> 02:03:00,640
Speaker 1: that's right. When Lee well, we need to see him

2287
02:03:00,640 --> 02:03:03,600
Speaker 1: move around before we make that determination. But don't think

2288
02:03:03,640 --> 02:03:06,560
Speaker 1: for a second that you know we've seen Dion Dawkins

2289
02:03:06,880 --> 02:03:09,680
Speaker 1: Deon Dawkins catch touchdown pass. I was, now I've been.

2290
02:03:09,880 --> 02:03:13,400
Speaker 1: You know, you could go back and watch get I'm

2291
02:03:13,440 --> 02:03:18,400
Speaker 1: laughing because you gotta like Lee Smith. Great guy, tremendous player,

2292
02:03:18,440 --> 02:03:20,320
Speaker 1: had a great season for US last year. They traded

2293
02:03:20,400 --> 02:03:27,200
Speaker 1: him this year. But yes, Spencer Brown could run the

2294
02:03:27,280 --> 02:03:31,040
Speaker 1: routes that Lee Evans was catching, or yeah, that Lee

2295
02:03:31,120 --> 02:03:34,640
Speaker 1: Smith was catching touchdowns. Lee Smith was a was forgotten

2296
02:03:35,160 --> 02:03:37,840
Speaker 1: on all the touchdowns he was in. He had one

2297
02:03:37,960 --> 02:03:40,720
Speaker 1: nice catcher in the year against the Rams where it

2298
02:03:40,760 --> 02:03:42,920
Speaker 1: was a hard throw, fastball and he reached back and

2299
02:03:42,960 --> 02:03:45,879
Speaker 1: caught it and pulled it in. But there were games

2300
02:03:45,920 --> 02:03:47,960
Speaker 1: where he was like in the New England game he

2301
02:03:48,040 --> 02:03:50,080
Speaker 1: caught one. He was he was walking across the goal

2302
02:03:50,160 --> 02:03:52,800
Speaker 1: line the other way crit against the grain he got caught.

2303
02:03:53,080 --> 02:03:55,640
Speaker 1: And I think it might have been was the Arizona

2304
02:03:55,680 --> 02:03:57,680
Speaker 1: game or the Las Vegas game where he got going

2305
02:03:57,760 --> 02:04:00,360
Speaker 1: down the far sideline he loft. I was a Pittsburgh game.

2306
02:04:00,800 --> 02:04:05,680
Speaker 1: Throws it. He's by himself and the play by play

2307
02:04:05,720 --> 02:04:07,680
Speaker 1: guy was laughing when he was calling the play because

2308
02:04:07,680 --> 02:04:09,520
Speaker 1: he was by himself and he started running. He was like,

2309
02:04:10,120 --> 02:04:15,360
Speaker 1: start running. He wasn't very fast. So yes, for what

2310
02:04:15,400 --> 02:04:18,760
Speaker 1: they had Lee Smith doing as a tight end, he

2311
02:04:18,800 --> 02:04:20,880
Speaker 1: could do that. He could do that. Yeah, but so

2312
02:04:21,080 --> 02:04:25,200
Speaker 1: could you know seven other guys. Yeah, so we'll see

2313
02:04:25,240 --> 02:04:27,760
Speaker 1: another way to get him on the field. Yeah, yeah, absolutely,

2314
02:04:28,000 --> 02:04:32,520
Speaker 1: time keep nine offensive lineman healthy for NFL True Fall

2315
02:04:32,640 --> 02:04:36,160
Speaker 1: Steve brought to you by Yancy's Fancy New York's artists

2316
02:04:36,160 --> 02:04:38,880
Speaker 1: in Cheese and we begin with a draft related NFL

2317
02:04:38,960 --> 02:04:44,440
Speaker 1: true falls. The Panthers with pick eight should have taken

2318
02:04:44,560 --> 02:04:50,320
Speaker 1: Justin Fields over j C. Horne with their first round pick.

2319
02:04:50,880 --> 02:04:54,120
Speaker 1: What say you to that? You know what I think?

2320
02:04:54,160 --> 02:04:56,960
Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, if he's got a chance to be

2321
02:04:57,000 --> 02:05:00,880
Speaker 1: really good, get him, even with Arnold on the roster.

2322
02:05:01,560 --> 02:05:05,480
Speaker 1: That's what I thought the Jets should have done. Remember

2323
02:05:05,480 --> 02:05:08,040
Speaker 1: you saying that Jets should have Zach Wilson and Sam Darnold,

2324
02:05:09,520 --> 02:05:13,400
Speaker 1: and can't you hope one of them can play? You

2325
02:05:13,480 --> 02:05:16,760
Speaker 1: still don't know if either one of them can play. Right,

2326
02:05:18,480 --> 02:05:21,240
Speaker 1: The odds say it's a coin flip, one of them can,

2327
02:05:21,360 --> 02:05:23,920
Speaker 1: but you still don't know which one. It is. The

2328
02:05:24,000 --> 02:05:26,640
Speaker 1: fiasco that you've been putting Sam Darnald through for his

2329
02:05:26,760 --> 02:05:31,160
Speaker 1: three years in the league, and now Zach Wilson. There's

2330
02:05:31,200 --> 02:05:33,520
Speaker 1: still teams out there that think Sam Darnald can be fixed,

2331
02:05:33,560 --> 02:05:37,800
Speaker 1: and with good reason. You don't know that Zach. It.

2332
02:05:37,880 --> 02:05:41,440
Speaker 1: Maybe Sam Darnald goes down there and wins in Carolina

2333
02:05:41,560 --> 02:05:44,320
Speaker 1: and you're stuck with Zach Wilson, who turns out to

2334
02:05:44,320 --> 02:05:48,040
Speaker 1: be fragile or turns out to be whatever, can't handle.

2335
02:05:48,040 --> 02:05:50,640
Speaker 1: It could happen and you don't know that. If you're

2336
02:05:50,640 --> 02:05:53,400
Speaker 1: the Jets, you so yes, if you've got a chance

2337
02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:55,640
Speaker 1: to take him and make sure. The only people who

2338
02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:57,280
Speaker 1: don't is that they got a guy they know that

2339
02:05:57,360 --> 02:06:00,840
Speaker 1: can play, like the Bills, like Green Bay, Kansas City,

2340
02:06:01,640 --> 02:06:04,640
Speaker 1: you know, all these teams that have a guy, Seattle,

2341
02:06:05,880 --> 02:06:10,000
Speaker 1: the Rams, all those teams. Do you still believe Sam

2342
02:06:10,080 --> 02:06:13,520
Speaker 1: Donald can be a good quarterback? Yeah? I do. I do.

2343
02:06:14,080 --> 02:06:16,480
Speaker 1: We've seen it and we don't know, is what you're saying.

2344
02:06:16,600 --> 02:06:20,600
Speaker 1: And because of that, you would take fields at eight? Correct? Okay,

2345
02:06:20,840 --> 02:06:23,680
Speaker 1: Now the Jets are convinced that Sam Donald couldn't be

2346
02:06:23,760 --> 02:06:26,000
Speaker 1: or at least that it was worth it to trade

2347
02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:29,080
Speaker 1: for him, trade him away. Yeah, I got a two

2348
02:06:29,080 --> 02:06:31,520
Speaker 1: and a four and a six for him? Is that

2349
02:06:31,560 --> 02:06:33,800
Speaker 1: what it was? You don't even get a one for him.

2350
02:06:34,120 --> 02:06:38,320
Speaker 1: If you don't have a quarterback, you can't win. We

2351
02:06:38,440 --> 02:06:40,800
Speaker 1: know that. As good as your roster can be, you're

2352
02:06:40,840 --> 02:06:43,280
Speaker 1: an eight win team. Yeah. And as much as the

2353
02:06:43,360 --> 02:06:45,720
Speaker 1: throwing in this league counts and the point scoring in

2354
02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:50,720
Speaker 1: this league counts for wins, I will say in Carolina's defense,

2355
02:06:51,840 --> 02:06:58,160
Speaker 1: they got absolutely crushed late in games and could not

2356
02:06:58,280 --> 02:07:02,560
Speaker 1: stop people, and that's why they couldn't pull games out.

2357
02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:05,120
Speaker 1: They used to lose games in the fourth quarter because

2358
02:07:05,120 --> 02:07:09,000
Speaker 1: they couldn't stop anybody. Right, So I understand the pick

2359
02:07:09,400 --> 02:07:11,640
Speaker 1: of JC Horn. You're trying to shore up your defense.

2360
02:07:11,680 --> 02:07:13,680
Speaker 1: Let's get a premiere corner. Well, I like to start

2361
02:07:13,720 --> 02:07:17,280
Speaker 1: for us day one. That wasn't play. That's what they

2362
02:07:17,320 --> 02:07:19,120
Speaker 1: were faced with though. That was the that was the

2363
02:07:19,320 --> 02:07:22,760
Speaker 1: give and take. Like, we got a potential franchise quarterback

2364
02:07:22,800 --> 02:07:24,080
Speaker 1: on the board here at eight. We don't know when

2365
02:07:24,120 --> 02:07:25,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna be picking up here again. We got one

2366
02:07:25,840 --> 02:07:28,400
Speaker 1: we can get at eight, not one, two or three

2367
02:07:28,560 --> 02:07:31,920
Speaker 1: at eight. Do we want that or do we just

2368
02:07:32,040 --> 02:07:34,240
Speaker 1: take the best corner on the board in the entire

2369
02:07:34,360 --> 02:07:36,920
Speaker 1: draft as we see it and help our defense which

2370
02:07:36,960 --> 02:07:39,200
Speaker 1: was getting run over last year and I see two.

2371
02:07:39,320 --> 02:07:41,360
Speaker 1: Think about it. If you're tough a team where you

2372
02:07:41,440 --> 02:07:42,920
Speaker 1: want to get a guy that can make a difference.

2373
02:07:42,960 --> 02:07:45,880
Speaker 1: A corner, a number one corner is huge because it

2374
02:07:46,120 --> 02:07:49,880
Speaker 1: automatically hamstrings the other offense. Yeah, that guy's gonna take

2375
02:07:49,960 --> 02:07:53,440
Speaker 1: the top of your offense, your top guy out. Theoretically,

2376
02:07:53,800 --> 02:07:55,840
Speaker 1: that's what he can do. He's gonna limit your best

2377
02:07:55,920 --> 02:07:59,480
Speaker 1: weapon on the outside. And that's big in a throwing league,

2378
02:07:59,480 --> 02:08:01,640
Speaker 1: and the quarter back we have is twenty three years old,

2379
02:08:02,600 --> 02:08:04,920
Speaker 1: still young, and he's got three years of experience in

2380
02:08:04,960 --> 02:08:07,120
Speaker 1: the league. We put him in this game, we work

2381
02:08:07,160 --> 02:08:12,080
Speaker 1: with him, we develop him. I think they here and

2382
02:08:12,200 --> 02:08:14,240
Speaker 1: I don't know this, I don't you know. I just

2383
02:08:14,320 --> 02:08:17,600
Speaker 1: wonder if Carolina came to the conclusion ultimately that we've

2384
02:08:17,640 --> 02:08:19,360
Speaker 1: had a twenty three year old quarterback here that we

2385
02:08:19,480 --> 02:08:22,360
Speaker 1: believe we can win with and can get on the

2386
02:08:22,480 --> 02:08:25,040
Speaker 1: uptake quickly here in the very short time that we've

2387
02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:27,920
Speaker 1: spent with him. He's three years experience in the league.

2388
02:08:27,920 --> 02:08:29,640
Speaker 1: He should be able to hit the ground running, and

2389
02:08:29,760 --> 02:08:31,680
Speaker 1: now we can get the best corner in the draft.

2390
02:08:33,360 --> 02:08:37,800
Speaker 1: They decided ultimately Sam Darnold and j. C. Horne was

2391
02:08:37,920 --> 02:08:42,160
Speaker 1: better for their team collectively than Sam Darnold and Justin Fields.

2392
02:08:43,480 --> 02:08:47,600
Speaker 1: That's the decision they made. Are they right? I don't know.

2393
02:08:48,440 --> 02:08:51,200
Speaker 1: I don't know but now, but quarterbacks are more valuable

2394
02:08:51,200 --> 02:08:53,000
Speaker 1: than corner So I'm gonna agree with you and say true.

2395
02:08:53,040 --> 02:08:55,920
Speaker 1: I'll say this, they're better this year with Sam Darnold

2396
02:08:56,000 --> 02:08:58,680
Speaker 1: and jac Horne than they were last year with Teddy Bridgewall. Well,

2397
02:08:58,880 --> 02:09:01,680
Speaker 1: that is that is Also they're better now. They're better today,

2398
02:09:01,720 --> 02:09:03,320
Speaker 1: no matter how they would have sliced it. Even with

2399
02:09:03,640 --> 02:09:07,200
Speaker 1: Justin Fields and Sam Darnold, they're better than they were

2400
02:09:07,320 --> 02:09:10,320
Speaker 1: last year. So I you know, it was hard for

2401
02:09:10,400 --> 02:09:12,400
Speaker 1: them to mess it up, but to maximize it and

2402
02:09:12,440 --> 02:09:14,480
Speaker 1: get the best combination of all three of those things,

2403
02:09:15,680 --> 02:09:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't know yet. Yeah, but J C. Horne, it's

2404
02:09:18,720 --> 02:09:21,000
Speaker 1: hard to go wrong because that guy can go. Good player,

2405
02:09:21,120 --> 02:09:24,360
Speaker 1: he can go NFL true false Number two. Matt Ryan

2406
02:09:24,480 --> 02:09:27,080
Speaker 1: was the biggest winner in the first round of the

2407
02:09:27,480 --> 02:09:32,560
Speaker 1: NFL Draft. The Falcons had the fourth pick they could

2408
02:09:32,600 --> 02:09:37,600
Speaker 1: have gotten Justin Fields. They passed. The word on the

2409
02:09:37,640 --> 02:09:40,040
Speaker 1: street was if Trey Lance was on the board, they

2410
02:09:40,080 --> 02:09:43,080
Speaker 1: would have picked Trey Lance, But because he was off

2411
02:09:43,120 --> 02:09:46,120
Speaker 1: the board and went to San Francisco, they picked Kyle Pitts,

2412
02:09:46,480 --> 02:09:49,920
Speaker 1: at which point Matt Ryan started doing backflips and you know,

2413
02:09:50,120 --> 02:09:55,000
Speaker 1: busting out the pom pops. Right, I'm gonna say the

2414
02:09:55,120 --> 02:09:59,440
Speaker 1: biggest winner. Certainly he's a winner because well he Pitt's

2415
02:09:59,480 --> 02:10:03,240
Speaker 1: gonna help. He arguably got the best talent in the draft.

2416
02:10:03,320 --> 02:10:08,880
Speaker 1: That's not a quarterback, that's right, Um, I'm thinking maybe, well,

2417
02:10:08,920 --> 02:10:11,360
Speaker 1: it's a guy I don't know maybe you know, Urban

2418
02:10:11,440 --> 02:10:15,400
Speaker 1: Meyer might have been the biggest winner and the whole thing. Um, okay,

2419
02:10:15,800 --> 02:10:19,160
Speaker 1: so well, like they got they got like twelve picks,

2420
02:10:19,200 --> 02:10:21,440
Speaker 1: they got twelve picks, ten or eleven picks. They got

2421
02:10:21,480 --> 02:10:26,120
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, Travis atn Tyson, Campbell, Walker, Little, even the

2422
02:10:26,160 --> 02:10:29,960
Speaker 1: safety I liked from Syracuse. Thinking, yeah, I'm thinking I

2423
02:10:30,160 --> 02:10:33,640
Speaker 1: like Jacksonville and the talent they got and from where

2424
02:10:33,680 --> 02:10:37,200
Speaker 1: they started. But yeah, I think Matt Ryan is gonna

2425
02:10:37,240 --> 02:10:40,000
Speaker 1: be able to to do I think that's going to

2426
02:10:40,080 --> 02:10:42,160
Speaker 1: really help them. I don't think there's any question Kyle

2427
02:10:42,200 --> 02:10:45,120
Speaker 1: Pitts is should be a difference maker. I've told you

2428
02:10:45,240 --> 02:10:47,840
Speaker 1: I was down playing him because I've seen those guys

2429
02:10:47,880 --> 02:10:51,640
Speaker 1: before it. But if we're thinking upside, yeah, I think

2430
02:10:51,720 --> 02:10:53,560
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's got to think, Okay, now I've got this

2431
02:10:53,640 --> 02:10:55,160
Speaker 1: team and it's gonna be mine for the next at

2432
02:10:55,240 --> 02:10:58,920
Speaker 1: least two years. He's got Kyle Pitts, Julio Jones at

2433
02:10:58,960 --> 02:11:03,360
Speaker 1: least for now, and Calvin Ridley and Hayden Hurst a

2434
02:11:03,480 --> 02:11:06,920
Speaker 1: throw to in that offense. And I think they want

2435
02:11:06,960 --> 02:11:08,920
Speaker 1: to say they drafted a running back too, if I

2436
02:11:09,000 --> 02:11:12,280
Speaker 1: remember right at Lanta did at some point, So they're

2437
02:11:12,360 --> 02:11:15,160
Speaker 1: loaded for bear. They did draft a good amount of

2438
02:11:15,200 --> 02:11:17,440
Speaker 1: defensive players, so hopefully their defense is better. But I

2439
02:11:17,480 --> 02:11:19,520
Speaker 1: will say he was the biggest winner because they didn't

2440
02:11:19,560 --> 02:11:21,600
Speaker 1: take another quarterback. He's locked in for the next couple

2441
02:11:21,640 --> 02:11:24,000
Speaker 1: of years. That is NFL True Falls. Brought to you

2442

2443
02:11:26,840 --> 02:11:28,920
Speaker 1: I back to close it up. Here. Next on One

2444
02:11:28,960 --> 02:11:31,680
Speaker 1: Bill's Live, presented by Kalid to Health, It's Buffalo Bill's Radio.

2445
02:11:44,320 --> 02:11:46,560
Speaker 1: What have we learned? Brought to you by Skyworks, the

2446
02:11:46,640 --> 02:11:49,360
Speaker 1: official construction equipment rental company of the Buffalo Bill. Steve,

2447
02:11:49,440 --> 02:11:52,920
Speaker 1: we learned this today. Erie County is not the only

2448
02:11:53,040 --> 02:11:58,560
Speaker 1: place where you can score a beer with your vaccination shot. Really.

2449
02:12:00,360 --> 02:12:05,400
Speaker 1: Jersey Governor Phil Murphy announced on Twitter, We're launching our

2450
02:12:05,520 --> 02:12:09,240
Speaker 1: shot in a Beer program to encourage ellible, eligible New

2451
02:12:09,320 --> 02:12:13,040
Speaker 1: Jersey ins ages twenty one and over to get vaccinated.

2452
02:12:13,560 --> 02:12:16,200
Speaker 1: Any New Jersey in who gets their first vaccine dose

2453
02:12:16,280 --> 02:12:18,560
Speaker 1: in the month of May and takes their vaccination card

2454
02:12:19,000 --> 02:12:25,240
Speaker 1: to a participating brewery will receive a free beer. Nice now, Steve,

2455
02:12:25,360 --> 02:12:29,440
Speaker 1: I guess I gotta say I worry about the state

2456
02:12:29,480 --> 02:12:32,520
Speaker 1: of our society that we need to prompt people to

2457
02:12:32,640 --> 02:12:36,560
Speaker 1: get vaccinated by dangling a free beer card out and

2458
02:12:37,440 --> 02:12:40,760
Speaker 1: run them like, come on, get in there. I see

2459
02:12:40,800 --> 02:12:43,200
Speaker 1: your point. I mean, don't get me wrong. I like

2460
02:12:43,440 --> 02:12:47,080
Speaker 1: the purse. However, but why is that necessary depends on

2461
02:12:47,120 --> 02:12:50,120
Speaker 1: the IPA. Wow, in this day and age when there's

2462
02:12:50,120 --> 02:12:54,040
Speaker 1: so much conflicting its particularly when you've got something as

2463
02:12:54,080 --> 02:12:57,360
Speaker 1: trustworthy as the Internet, where you can get where you

2464
02:12:57,400 --> 02:12:59,720
Speaker 1: can get any piece of information to say whatever you

2465
02:12:59,800 --> 02:13:01,800
Speaker 1: want on. Yeah, you kind of need a lot of

2466
02:13:01,840 --> 02:13:07,000
Speaker 1: disinformation out there. Yeah, I'm just maybe that prompts a

2467
02:13:07,040 --> 02:13:09,320
Speaker 1: second question. I'm not saying one thing. I'm not saying

2468
02:13:09,360 --> 02:13:11,120
Speaker 1: one side or the other. I'm just saying you know,

2469
02:13:11,440 --> 02:13:14,080
Speaker 1: I know, I get you. But it prompts a second question.

2470
02:13:15,600 --> 02:13:17,880
Speaker 1: What does it say about our society that the first

2471
02:13:18,080 --> 02:13:23,000
Speaker 1: vehicle that politicians choose to convince people to get vaccinated

2472
02:13:23,600 --> 02:13:26,440
Speaker 1: is fizzy beer. I feel like on an episode of

2473
02:13:26,520 --> 02:13:29,600
Speaker 1: The Simpsons here. Yeah, that's true. We're all going down

2474
02:13:29,680 --> 02:13:34,800
Speaker 1: to mos like breaking anybody, like anybody who gets drunk

2475
02:13:35,000 --> 02:13:37,600
Speaker 1: can have a free vaccine. Oh my god, something like

2476
02:13:37,640 --> 02:13:40,520
Speaker 1: that's crazy. Yeah, it is like the Simpsons. But that's

2477
02:13:40,560 --> 02:13:42,080
Speaker 1: the first thing I thought of when I saw it.

2478
02:13:42,120 --> 02:13:45,200
Speaker 1: I could just see over like you know that, you know,

2479
02:13:45,280 --> 02:13:47,160
Speaker 1: the burp and everything else, and he'll be back in

2480
02:13:47,280 --> 02:13:51,360
Speaker 1: line to get another veteration, right, what's wrong with farm vaccinations? Um,

2481
02:13:51,800 --> 02:13:54,280
Speaker 1: we have to go, but tomorrow, big show for you.
