18
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 3: want to, we can do that. But I just love

19
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 3: you the build up, right, the build up for the draft,

20
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 3: and that just happens, and this hectic three day period

21
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 3: where there's so much hope. Right, this is the beginning

22
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 3: of every NFL season. It's the sport that gives you

23
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 3: the most hope, right, Look, at baseball right now, we're

24
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: both baseball fans. Not a lot of hope around a

25
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 3: lot of teams in baseball around even in one month

26
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 3: in Okay, there's a lot of hope.

27
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: Well not in Oakland for sure. What yeah, not in Oakland.

28
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 3: No, well, not in Oakland. There's no hope for Oakland

29
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 3: at all and anything any sport because they don't keeping

30
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 3: any of their other teams ever. But football does hope, man,

31
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 3: And you can go through Twitter and social media and

32
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 3: fan bases. Man, they're hopeful that players drafted either Thursday,

33
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 3: Friday or even today are the missing piece that gets

34
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 3: them to the playoffs or gets them to the super Bowl.

35
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: And that's what makes the draft so much fun.

36
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: No doubt about that.

37
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: And then thing about the NFL draft over the years,

38
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: this is one thing I observe watching the NFL draft

39
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: now as opposed to when I worked in the NFL

40
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 1: way back in the nineteen eighties, the Stone age, when

41
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: you used to have can you believe twelve rounds to

42
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: the draft? But I don't remember everyone applodding after a pick.

43
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about playing for the cameras. I've

44
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: always wondered this about the draft itself. I mean, the

45
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: idea of grading drafts or evaluating how teams did in

46
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: a draft, to me is ridiculous. And I remember a

47
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: partner and I way back in the day. This happened

48
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety eight, the year that the Chargers moved

49
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: up to the second pick in the draft to take

50
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: Ryan Leaf, and the following day and the local newspapers

51
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: they were given an A plus A plus for that draft.

52
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: A year later, I'm like, you want to reevaluate that great?

53
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: So we started looking at drafts three years in reverse,

54
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: you know, like three years after the draft, now, let's

55
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: start grading the drafts. I mean, there can still be

56
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: some breakout players, but after three years you have a

57
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: pretty good idea how a draft class is actually panned

58
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: out for that team. So I'm not going to sit

59
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: here and try to pretend that this team had a

60
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: great draft or this team had a subpar draft. I

61
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: guess the only way, really, Jeff, to evaluate a draft,

62
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: if you're a so called draft expert, is did they

63
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,399
Speaker 1: address needs going into the draft. If they needed a quarterback,

64
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 1: if they needed offensive line help, if they need whatever

65
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: the need was. Yea, now they may have picked the

66
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: wrong guy. But they go after the right positions to

67
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: start to fill the needs, and then that, to me

68
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: at this point is the only way to evaluate what's

69
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: currently going on in this year's draft.

70
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, obviously draft grades today are and look, I

71
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: actually read all the draft grade articles. I love them.

72
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 3: Actually does a good job of just recapping what happened

73
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: in the draft. I think after you get past day two,

74
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 3: the draft recap grades are kind of like Matt like, whatever,

75
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 3: he's grade day three, right, I mean rounds four through seven,

76
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: good luck on that. I think what a lot of

77
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 3: people do is that you know, they have their big

78
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 3: boards right now. The people that we trust to put

79
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: together these big boards in the media, and there are

80
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 3: a lot of people that you should trust, Dane Jeremiah,

81
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 3: Dan Brugler, Matt Miller, there's a lot of guys that

82
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 3: you should trust to put these together, right, And you know,

83
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 3: they go off of basically, Okay, if I have a

84
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 3: guy who is fifty on my big board and you

85
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 3: draft him twenty third, well, okay, that's not great value.

86
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 3: That's a c draft pick, right Or Or if a

87
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 3: guy I have at fifty and you draft him at

88
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: seventy eight, that's that's an eight, right. You You've drafted

89
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 3: a player that is great and much you know, much lower,

90
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 3: basically much higher than where you drafted them. Okay, that's

91
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: I think how people grade drafts now as they go

92
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 3: off of kind of the big board. But team needs

93
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 3: your point is very important to this discussion, but also

94
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 3: like a philosophy, right, I think you're seeing it with

95
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 3: the better teams in the NFL that just seem to

96
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 3: draft the most important positions each year and just kind

97
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 3: of get it right right the Eagles, Right, The Eagles

98
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 3: just keep getting those defense and offensive lignement right every year,

99
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 3: like just you know, everyone's drafted running backs in the

100
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 3: first round. Eagles are drafting off at the defensive linemen,

101
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 3: you know, like they're just getting better at the positions

102
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 3: it seem to matter the most in the postseason and

103
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 3: it continues to be that way every year for lat

104
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 3: of teams you talk about team needs. The Chiefs. I'm

105
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 3: the Chiefs fan obviously for those who are new to

106
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 3: Jeff Schwartz Chiefs fan, my brother played there. I played there.

107
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 3: The Chiefs had three needs for the most part, pass rush,

108
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: wide receiver, tackle. Get what they drafted in the first

109
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: three picks of the draft. Pass rush, wide receiver, right tackle,

110
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: right boom boom boom. Done Like they did exactly what

111
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: they wanted to do. They got good value in all

112
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: three guys, and they hit a home run at what

113
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 3: they wanted to do. No surprise. I have my homes obviously,

114
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 3: but they have a good roster because they draft the

115
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 3: guys they need to fill the spots they need.

116
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: Jeff, you know you and I have covered drafts together

117
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: this year.

118
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: Obviously, I've been with Bucky leading up to this draft,

119
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: and we always hear a lot of noise before the draft,

120
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: especially about two weeks before, you know, people are getting

121
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: information from inside, people saying, hey, this guy's moving up,

122
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: this guy's moving down.

123
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 4: This was all.

124
00:05:58,600 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 2: Garbage this year.

125
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: The idea that Will Levis was suddenly going to be

126
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: maybe not even the second pick overall, maybe the first

127
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: pick overall, and that somehow Tyree Wilson was going to

128
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: be taken over Will Anderson Junior as the edge guy.

129
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: When you looked at the top three picks in this draft,

130
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: Rice Young, CJ. Stroud, Will Anderson Junior. That's what everybody had.

131
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: Everybody had until two weeks ago, and then all of

132
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: a sudden, we are sold at Oh.

133
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 2: No, no, no, everyone's loving on Will Levis.

134
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: Look, with all due respect to a guy like mel

135
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: Kiper who's been doing this for one hundred years, he

136
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: needs to step down if he's going to continue to

137
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 1: sell the idea that he's getting some kind of inside information.

138
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: This so called inside information is always leaked by two sources,

139
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: either from organizations trying to throw the scent off on

140
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 1: their desire to get a player to other teams or

141
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: agents who are trying to get their player up in

142
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,799
Speaker 1: the draft, and the idea that there's an urgency.

143
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 2: If you don't move up, my guy's going to go.

144
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,359
Speaker 1: They I don't know how it is that these so

145
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: called draft experts buy into it, because then they feed us,

146
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: and even though it may not make any sense, you know.

147
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: We have to talk about it.

148
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: I mean, like last week, Bucky and I are sitting

149
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: there talking about the betting odds suddenly had Levice as

150
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: a possible number one overall pick, and bet the bank

151
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: that Houston is not taking a quarterback. They're gonna go

152
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: with Tyree Wilson, the edge guy out of Texas Tech.

153
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: None of that was true. It never was true. And

154
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: so it's funny when we talk about where the draft

155
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: is now and the amounting amount of coverage, and I

156
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: think there was something like thirty five million people watching

157
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: the draft first round, some crazy number. Right, It's understandable,

158
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: but I think, you know, I think you have to

159
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: go back to your instincts and really think about who

160
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: these top players were.

161
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 2: What did you think of that test that CJ.

162
00:07:54,280 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: Stroud failed miserably on, which apparently just plummeted his draft value.

163
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 2: You how does that score leak out?

164
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: And were you at the only surprised he ended up

165
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: two overall to the Texans.

166
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 3: I'm glad you talked about kind of how this ended

167
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 3: up happening, right, because if you would have said the

168
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 3: end of the season, Okay, who goes one in two?

169
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 3: Bryce Young?

170
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 4: C J.

171
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 3: Stroud? The easy answer, right, the simplest answer, the best

172
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 3: quarterback on the second best quarterback defensive player in the

173
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 3: mark Well, Jalen Carter up there, right, Carter? I think

174
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 3: most might be had greater the best player in the draft. Okay,

175
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,959
Speaker 3: but obviously there's some reasons why he wasn't up there. Nonetheless, Okay,

176
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 3: you know, we go through the process and every year

177
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: we try to convince ourselves the most kind of common

178
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 3: answer is not the one that is going to happen, right,

179
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 3: the the the most predictable answer is not going to happen.

180
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: In this case, it absolutely did. It absolutely happened, and

181
00:08:55,720 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 3: it uh like of course it was gonna happened, right.

182
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 3: The two most important players at the most important position

183
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 3: went one in two. And the thing about the testing

184
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 3: for Stroud is this is why you know, data and

185
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: all this stuff is important. But also you gotta watch

186
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 3: a film, right, because that didn't show on the film.

187
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 3: Exactly didn't show on the film, And I think it's

188
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 3: unfair to put that number out there. Plus, we don't

189
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: have a lot of background on this test, so for

190
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: like me, I'm like S two. I called around though

191
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: it's a cognition test, okay, but like what do we

192
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: have for background on it? Has it been done for

193
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 3: so many years? I thought it was unfair to him.

194
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 2: Well, if you had passed on CJ.

195
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: Stroud and ignore what he did against Georgia, you're an idiot. Yeah,

196
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 1: I mean it was the single most impressive quarterback performance

197
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: by far a year ago, considering the talent on that

198
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 1: Georgia defense and how he absolutely tore them apart, not

199
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: just with his arm, but also was able to do

200
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: some scrambling because he's not known as a guy that

201
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 1: you know is gonna get a lot of yards on

202
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: the ground, but he was able to do everything on

203
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 1: the biggest stage in that game. All Right, So we're

204
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: gonna go over a lot of the draft today. We

205
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: also got plenty of NBA playoff news. We're gonna get

206
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: to the Lakers, by the way, winning their first playoff

207
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: series outside of the bubble in eleven years, and they

208
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 1: still are waiting to find out who they'll play next,

209
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: Sacramento Kings or the Golden State Warriors. So a little

210
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: bit later on, we're gonna try to break it down

211
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: on which would be the preferable opponent if you're the

212
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Pikers. But on the other side, the Colts

213
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 1: had the fourth overall pick and they want with Anthony Richardson,

214
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: what should we expect from the former Florida Gator.

215
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: We're gonna break it down. This is Fox Sports Saturday.

233
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: you live from the Tyraq dot com studios.

234
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: Jim er Say, the owner of.

235
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: The Indianapolis Colts, is prone Jeff to say some ridiculous things.

236
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 2: At least he's a good guy. His dad was not.

237
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: But he actually put out on Twitter after taking Anthony

238
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: Richardson fourth or over on the draft a tweet that

239
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: said Colts fans, would you take Will Levis at number

240
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: two if you're on the board for the Colts in

241
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: four hours from now. Okay, so let's and by the way,

242
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: Jim Marsay is also maintaining had the Colts had the

243
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: number one overall pick, they would have taken Anthony Richardson.

244
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: What do you think was the prevailing sentiment about Anthony

245
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 1: Richardson going into this draft? Because obviously, after the Combine,

246
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: when he put up all these ridiculous numbers, his name skyrocketed,

247
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: and then people look back at his numbers at Florida

248
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: last year, completing less than fifty four percent of his passes.

249
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: But by the time we got to draft day, what

250
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: do you think was the overwhelming sentiment about Anthony Richardson.

251
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: That we have a player who's so physically gifted that

252
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 3: we can basically start off with him being a du

253
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 3: all in the offense, Like, hey man, we're gonna have

254
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 3: your run, we're gonna play action pass, We're gonna build

255
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 3: specific packages around your athletic ability as you grow into

256
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 3: a more polished NFL passer, Like, there's so many things

257
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 3: we can do with you because you're a physical freak essentially, right,

258
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 3: And there's an upside to that, right, Like there's an

259
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: upside to that to that now, Steve, there's a huge

260
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 3: boom boom potential and a giant bus potential right now.

261
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 3: Shane Steiken, the head coach for the Colts, now has

262
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: worked with as a rookie. He was a quarterback coach

263
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 3: in Los Angeles. I think they were the Chargers the

264
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 3: Los Angeles. They were the Chargers. I think they were

265
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 3: in Los Angeles. Then with with with Herbert right, and

266
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 3: then he was now obviously the OC with Jalen Hurts,

267
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 3: so he has he has now coached kind of Now

268
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 3: Hurts wasn't as big as as Justin Herbert, but two

269
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 3: guys that were very mobile, very athletic, could move. Justin

270
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 3: Herbert obviously giant cannon of an arm like that. You know,

271
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: there's Richardson has some of those traits, right, So that

272
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 3: appealed to to to Shane Steichen, So that I think

273
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 3: is why they went with richards And now I think

274
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 3: they would have gone with Bryce Young. But I will

275
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 3: say this the thing about Bryce Young. I'm here, I'm

276
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 3: here in Carolina. I was out today, my kids had

277
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 3: baseball and Charlotte and everyone's pumped about Bryce Young, and

278
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 3: I'm with you. He's the best quarterback in this draft.

279
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 3: But it's hard because drafting and outlier steve, whether it's

280
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: at the at either spectrum the biggest, the fastest, the strongest,

281
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 3: or the weakest, the slowest, the smallest and number one

282
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 3: overall is tough, right, Bryce Young for him to succeed

283
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 3: the level of the Panthers want super Bowl right, so

284
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 3: they want he would be the smallest quarterback in the

285
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 3: first round to ever.

286
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 4: Be that good.

287
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: See I look at things. For instance, the argument between

288
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: Will Anderson Junior and Tyree Wilson.

289
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 2: Right, So, Tyree physically.

290
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: Is more impressive. Yes, he's a more impressive edge guy.

291
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: The argument was is that physically, Tyree Wilson is the

292
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: superior athlete, but Will Anderson Junior has better football instincts.

293
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: So if I'm evaluating players, unless there.

294
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 3: I mean tyr Wilson is a better football instance.

295
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, Will Anderson Junior had better So Tyree

296
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: Wilson was the more physical player, but Will Anderson Junior

297
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: had better football instincts. So I'm so I'm weighing these

298
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: two factors and evaluating talent to try to pick the

299
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: right guy, especially when it's you know, a top ten

300
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: pick where you better not miss, and unfortunately for these teams,

301
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: they miss a lot with these premium picks. I'm gonna

302
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: go with the guy with the instincts, the guy that

303
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: knows how to actually play the game a little bit better,

304
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: because we've seen it time and again, guys that get

305
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: downgraded in the draft because physically they don't measure up.

306
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: I mean, linebackers galore.

307
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 1: I can go back to Mike Singletary, who was averaging

308
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: twenty five tackles a game at Baylor, dropped down to

309
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: the second round because he was five to eleven. Guess

310
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: what he continued to track all twenty on his way

311
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame. Luke Keigley, maybe downgrade a

312
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 1: little bit similar, not quite as some people just get it.

313
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: They understand how to play the game. So I was

314
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: pleased to see Will Anderson Junior go third overall. And

315
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: what did you by the way, I had never even

316
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: got to this point about and we'll get back to

317
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: Richards in a moment here. With this Will Anderson, the

318
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: Texans moving up to that third overall pick, they had

319
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 1: a lot of extra picks they averybe to move them around,

320
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: but to end up getting both CJ.

321
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 2: Stroud and Will Anderson Junior.

322
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: What did you make of that doubleheader?

323
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 3: I loved it. You have a new coach, you're trying

324
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 3: to build a program up again, and you have the

325
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 3: askes to do so, you know, because everyone's well, they

326
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 3: give up too much to move back up whether they

327
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 3: have the Browns first round pick again next year too,

328
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 3: So they still have a first round pick next season,

329
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 3: and you got yourself a quarterback in the future and

330
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: the best pass rusher in the draft. What more can

331
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 3: you ask for? Right? I loved it. I am look man,

332
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 3: I am gonna always kind of lean on on the

333
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 3: side of a little bit of aggression, like it's okay

334
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 3: to be aggressive in my opinion in this in this situation.

335
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 3: So I on for it. I think it was a

336
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 3: big swing. I'll take it. If you're a Texans fan,

337
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 3: you have to be excited about what they did. All right.

338
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: Let's get back to Anthony Richardson. So the Colts have Minshew.

339
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: Is nick Fole still there? I believe technically he's still there.

340
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: Sam Ellinger is there. How do you think they're going

341
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: to handle the Anthony Richardson development? Are they going to

342
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 1: throw them to the fire? Are they gonna let him observe?

343
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: I mean, to me, the best experience is to get experience.

344
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: And some teams have the luxury as the Chiefs did

345
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes because they had an established quarterback and

346
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,880
Speaker 1: Alex Smith, you know, one of the least appreciated quarterbacks.

347
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: I think over the last decade plus he won a

348
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 1: lot more games than he lost. But how do you

349
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 1: think they will handle stike In and those that make

350
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 1: those decisions with the Colts and developing Richardson.

351
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: I think you take your time right, and I think

352
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 3: that with a new coach you have time to do

353
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 3: that right. A returning coach, you probably don't feel as

354
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:43,919
Speaker 3: you know, as kind of you don't feel like you

355
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 3: have time right. But with a new coach, you got

356
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 3: plenty of time to make this work. And I think

357
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 3: you let the young guys start first, and you put

358
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 3: richards in when he's ready to play. There's no purpose

359
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 3: in letting him play before he's ready, Like it's not

360
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 3: going to get him more ready. In my opinion, you

361
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,719
Speaker 3: just when he's ready to go in, you put him

362
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 3: in there like that's simple. There's no rush to get

363
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 3: this to get him on the field week one. I

364
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,199
Speaker 3: know the fans are gonna want them to play. I

365
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 3: mean people in the Billdy might want to play, but

366
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 3: you got to make sure he's ready because with a

367
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 3: player like him, I feel like things can almost go

368
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 3: poorly and maybe even worse if you make him play

369
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 3: before he's ready to do so.

370
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: All right, we're halfway through the sixth round of this draft,

371
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: so the draft is pretty much coming to a close

372
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. And of course all

373
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: these games that are coming out the board right now,

374
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: you get to Day three, you're just hoping. You're hoping

375
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: that somehow, some way you pulled off a pick on somebody. Well,

376
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: look what happened a year ago with the forty nine

377
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: ers in the last overall pick in the draft, with

378
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,719
Speaker 1: Brock Party turned out to be a good starting quarterback.

379
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 1: There are other things that were related to this draft

380
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: that I want to get to, including the Jets and

381
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 1: the Ravens of finally getting deals done to get their quarterbacks.

382
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 2: We're going to to that a quicker minor though.

Speaker 1: I definitely on the other side, I want to get

389
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: into a little more detail here on some of these

390
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: quarterback deals that were done.

391
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 4: Uh.

392
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: One other quick note about this draft, and as far

393
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: as the quarterback position was concerned, Eleven of the top

394
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty picks in this draft were quarterbacks. Jeff,

395
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: That's never been done before. Are you surprised by that number?

396
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 1: And I haven't been paying attention to Max Duggan still

397
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: out there.

398
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 3: I believe he is.

399
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, the runner up for the Heisman Trophy.

400
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 1: It's interesting because the Chargers selected both of his wide receivers.

401
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 1: Two of the wide receivers from that TCU team ended

402
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: up with the Chargers. Seems like that entire TCU team

403
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: has been drafted coming off there a miracle run a

404
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: year ago. That quarterback Max dugg and uh, still sitting

405
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: out there. I know he's had some health concerns in

406
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 1: the past, but man, I love that guy's competitiveness. And

407
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 1: you see Stetson Bennett come off a board are you

408
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: surprised to Max Duggan still waiting for a call?

409
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 3: No, I'm not. I was actually surprised Stetson Ben was

410
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 3: drafting the fourth round because by the Rams, Like, what's

411
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 3: the point of that of that draft pick? If you're

412
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 3: the Rams, you have a lot of holes in your roster?

413
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 3: Does Stetson Bennett fix the problem of yours? Like? Is

414
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 3: he your next quarterback? And when Stafford's done? Like, when

415
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 3: Stafford's done, you just are gonna stink and draft a

416
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 3: quarterback the year after he's he's no longer there, Like,

417
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: why would you draft stets Be? It feels like a

418
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 3: complete waste of a draft pick to draft a fourth

419
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 3: round backup quarter What is the purpose of that draft picked?

420
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you this because you and I

421
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 1: were covering a lot of this during the demise of

422
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 1: the Rams a year ago on whether or not it

423
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: was an aberration, Like is this a team that's going

424
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 1: to bounce right back and be in the playoff contention

425
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three? You seem to think yeah. In fact,

426
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: most people I talk to seem yeah, And I'm like, really,

427
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 1: I mean you really think that Matthew Stafford is going

428
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: to come back to the level we saw.

429
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty one. I don't see it.

430
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 1: I think this Rams team, by making this pick, may

431
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: have some concerns. But drafting a guy like Stetson Bennett,

432
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: you know, who's five to eleven, look at it, Is

433
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: he a winner? It's hard to say. We've seen a

434
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks have a lot of success in terms

435
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: of wins and losses when they're surrounded like great talent.

436
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: I remember Gino Torretta on a Heisman Trophy at the

437
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: University of Miami. He was a seventh round pick because

438
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 1: he was a seventh round quarterback and barely got a

439
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: cup of coffee at the NFL, And the guy almost

440
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: never lost because he was surrounded by great talent. But

441
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering if the Stetson Bennett selection has something

442
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 1: to do with the status Matthew Stafford. All right, we're

443
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 1: going to get to the whole situation evolving the Jets

444
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 1: and the Ravens and their quarterbacks. But first let's find

445
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 1: out what is trending right now. And Nick Cope is

446
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: hanging out with us today. By the way, Nick, a

447
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: little bit later on that now, but later, because we

448
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 1: know you're locked.

449
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 2: Into those Sacramento Kings.

450
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: Yes, and they have that big Game seven tomorrow against

451
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: the Warriors after a remarkable.

452
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 2: Formance last night.

453
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I was unbelievable all the scenarios last night.

454
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 7: I didn't have blowout win for the Kings as an outcome.

455
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, after losing Game five at home and then come

456
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 1: back and win Game six on the road. But we'll

457
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: get to that a little bit later on. So are

458
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: we close to the end of this draft?

459
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 2: Nick here?

460
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, So we're winding down here. In the sixth round,

461
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 7: you mentioned eleven quarterbacks taken in the top one fifty

462
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 7: I think it was. There were actually twelve total taken

463
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 7: through the first five rounds. That's the most in the

464
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 7: common draft era going back to the mid sixties. You

465
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 7: had five of them going a fourteen pick span earlier,

466
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 7: Jay Canner out of Fresno State going to the Saints,

467
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 7: the Rams taking Stetson Bennett. Raiders took Aidan O'Connell out

468
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 7: of Purdue. Houston quarterback Clayton Toone went to the Cardinals

469
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,400
Speaker 7: early in the fifth, and then the very next pick,

470
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 7: the Browns drafted UCLA quarterback Dorian Thompson Robinson. Also in

471
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 7: the fifth round, Packers drafting Penn State QB Sean Clifford.

472
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 7: Vikings took BYU quarterback Jaron Hill, and then in the

473
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 7: sixth round couple names, Eagles selected Stanford quarterback Tanner McKee.

474
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 7: Patriots took LSU receiver Kaysehawan Boody that was also in

475
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 7: the sixth round, and then the Patriots they drafted Michigan

476
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 7: State punter Bryce Behringer here in the sixth round. They

477
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 7: took Maryland kicker Chad Ryland in the fourth round earlier today.

478
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 7: I don't know, Steve, you're a history guy if you

479
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 7: want a little impromptu trivia here, but New England is

480
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 7: the first team to take a punter and a kicker

481
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 7: in the same draft since this team in the year

482
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,239
Speaker 7: two thousand, Wow.

483
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,880
Speaker 2: Two thousand? Would it be the Raiders?

484
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: Ding Ding Ding Wow?

485
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 7: Sebastian Janikowski, Shane Leckler, w Laur will be in the

486
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,439
Speaker 7: Hall of Fame, so at Sebastian Janetkowski the great story

487
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 7: about the Raiders where it's curse the first team to

488
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 7: take a punter in the first round.

489
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: Ray guy in nineteen seventy three, I was not working

490
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: for the Raiders back then, but I heard the legendary

491
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: story of John Madden when they.

492
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 2: Made that pick, storming out of.

493
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: The room like absolutely screaming like a banjie, like we.

494
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 2: Just took out putter in the first round.

495
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,880
Speaker 1: Once he saw Ray guy show off his punting prowess,

496
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: he was never complaining again about that shit special for

497
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: New England though, right really that's.

498
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 7: And they and they traded up in the fourth round

499
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 7: to take that Maryland kicker as well, so he was

500
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 7: actually the second one off the board. Niners took a

501
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 7: kicker in the third round yesterday. Elsewhere, the Lions said

502
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 7: they're not drafting but trading running back downre Swift. He's

503
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 7: going to the Eagles after they took Alabama running back

504
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 7: Jamier Gibbs in the first round on Thursday.

505
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: So it makes sense there.

506
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 7: Teams are swapping seventh rounders here today. And then Detroit

507
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 7: is also going to receive a fourth round pick in

508
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 7: twenty twenty five. And the NBA Sixers coach Doc Rivers

509
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 7: said juell And Beat his doubtful for Monday's Game one

510
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 7: against the Celtics. It's got that knee injury. The Eastern

511
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 7: Conference semi finals getting underway in a couple of days

512
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,880
Speaker 7: Western Conference Semis. They start tonight Nuggets and Suns Game one,

513
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 7: eight to thirty Eastern. Quickly to baseball. The Pirates keep

514
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 7: on rolling. They beat the National six to three. Pittsburgh

515
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 7: has now won nine out of their last ten. Tigers

516
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 7: out the Orioles seven to four, a game one of

517
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 7: their doubleheader. Braves and Mets were rained out today. Got

518
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 7: a couple games going on.

519
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 2: Two to two.

520
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 7: Ball game between the Royals and the Twins in the eighth.

521
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 7: Still no score between the Mariners and Blue Jays in

522
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 7: the seventh. Then a few games have just gotten underway.

523
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 7: Marlins on top of the Cubs four nothing. No score

524
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 7: between the Reds and the A's, and the Red Sox

525
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 7: lead the Guardians three to zip.

526
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: Let's go back to Jeff Schwartz and Steve Harmon.

527
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 2: All right, Nick, thanks so much. We'll check in with

528
00:26:58,520 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 2: you a little bit later on.

529
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: Once again, we're company Alive from the tairaq dot com studios.

530
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: All right, So, Jeff, a week ago, Bucky and I

531
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: were sitting here talking about the fact that it would

532
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: seem inevitable that the Packers Jets deal for Aaron Rodgers

533
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 1: had to get done before the draft, and I was

534
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: making the argument the Jets had two picks, back to

535
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: back picks at the time in the second round.

536
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: I said, you're not going to give up the thirteenth

537
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 2: overall pick.

538
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 1: As it turned out, they sort of swapped thirteen and fifteen,

539
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: but the idea of trading both those seconds to get

540
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, I said, I think that's okay. As it

541
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: turned out, they gave up one of those picks and

542
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: then a pick next year that potentially could be a

543
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: first round pick. And I know a lot of people

544
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: are screaming that the Jets overpaid. I disagree. I'm like,

545
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: think of some worst case scenarios for the Jets. Let's

546
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: say it's a one and done year, but they get

547
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: to the playoffs after missing the playoffs twelve consecuted years.

548
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 1: That's a win for the Jets. This is a desperate

549
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: franchise and he had an opportunity to acquire. Even though

550
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 1: the eyeball test says he is in semi decline, he

551
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 1: should be invigorated by putting on a new uniform. But

552
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: I think the Jets did what they had to do.

553
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: He had to get into a Jets uniform asap. Preferably

554
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: before the draft, which is the deal they got done.

555
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: So I disagree with a lot of the so called

556
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: oh way they wait, they got fleeced by the Packers.

557
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: I don't think so the Jets needed to get him

558
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,400
Speaker 1: in a uniform asap, because if they had not gotten

559
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: a deal done before the draft, all bets were off

560
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: of when that deal would actually get done. So I

561
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 1: think the Jets made the right move.

562
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the question is for me about who

563
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 3: gets fleeced and who doesn't is we have to see

564
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 3: in a couple of years. I know it's kind of

565
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 3: maybe a cop on answer, but.

566
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 2: It's an honest answer.

567
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: But because the success of this trade will be based

568
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: on off of the play of Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers,

569
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 3: but more important than the success of the Jets team

570
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 3: the next year or two, because to me, it's super

571
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 3: Bowl or bust for the Jets. You've traded for the

572
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 3: best quarterback in franchise history by far right. Yeah, Joe

573
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 3: Namath great forty years ago, but Aaron Rodgers better than

574
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 3: name it. FARV had a good season before he got hurt,

575
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 3: but FARV was not at Aaron Rodgers level. When FARV

576
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 3: was traded to the Jets. He's the best quarterback the

577
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 3: team has ever had. As you mentioned, they have the

578
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 3: longest professional sports playoff drought now with the King's in

579
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 3: the playoffs twelve years. Right, the Mariners made it last year,

580
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 3: King's made it this year. Maybe that means the Jets

581
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 3: will make it and they'll in their drought. But it's

582
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 3: Super Bowl or bust. They have loaded up the roster

583
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 3: for Aaron Rodgers and they've made this trade with the

584
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 3: idea of making the Super Bowl. AFC conference is very

585
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 3: tough to make the super Bowl. The Packers have a

586
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 3: different end game in my opinion. Right the end game

587
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: is not to even in my opinion, to even make

588
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 3: the NCAA champion game this year. It's like, let's win

589
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 3: a division first with Love, right, Like, let's see what

590
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 3: Love has this season, and if we win the division

591
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 3: or we're a wild card team, he's our guy. Let's

592
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 3: sign him up, let's build around him, and let's continue

593
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 3: to move forward. And so the end game is different

594
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 3: for both these squads. The Packers, in my opinion, have

595
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 3: more of a chance to quotote win their endgame, which

596
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 3: is Jordan Love is good and in the next couple

597
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 3: of years, you build a roster and three years from

598
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: now it's like, Okay, we're competing for the NFC. Then

599
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 3: the Jets have right now in the AFC Conference of

600
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 3: like we need to win now or else, and the

601
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 3: or else is like Aaron Rodgers retires after this season.

602
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 3: You've had one year of Rogers and you've given your

603
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 3: first round pick in twenty twenty four of the Packers

604
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 3: for one year to go ten and seven and lose

605
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 3: on the road to the Chiefs in the wildcard round.

606
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 3: You know what I mean. Like, it's just it's the

607
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 3: Jets margin of Araman is so tiny in this in

608
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 3: this spot right now.

609
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 2: I again, know here's what I'm curious for the Jets

610
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 2: moving forward.

611
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: So I mean again, Aaron Rodgers came to the Jets

612
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: for a number of reasons.

613
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 2: One, he had certainly closed the door on the Packers.

614
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: He'd been talking about that for several years, and once

615
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: it was clear that he alone was not going to

616
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: be able to take the Packers back to that thirteen

617
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: win level that they have for three consecutive years, the

618
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: Packers were more than ready to move on and give

619
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: Jordan Love an opportunity.

620
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 2: But you look at what the Jets did in the

621
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 2: draft last year.

622
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you got the best corner in the league

623
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 1: as a rookie. Saft Card is the best corner right

624
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: now currently in the NFL. You got Wilson, the offensive

625
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 1: rookie of the year. You got Breis Hall, who might

626
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: have been the offensive rookie of the year had he

627
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: not gotten hurt. So the idea that the Jets were

628
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: coming off such a successful draft I think made it

629
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: even easier to engineer whatever draft picks were necessary to

630
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 1: get this deal done asap. I just again, how this

631
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: is all going to play out, not only for Aaron

632
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: Rodgers and the Jets, but how this plays out for

633
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson.

634
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 2: In other words, he's still there. What exactly are you

635
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: doing with him? Is he going to take a step back?

636
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: Learning at defeat of Aaron Rodgers somehow clear as head

637
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: because his problems weren't just on the field, they were

638
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: off the field as well.

639
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:19,959
Speaker 2: How do you think the Jets will handle that?

640
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 3: I Mean the honest answer is I don't know. They care,

641
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 3: like right like, I mean.

642
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 2: They've already turned the page on that.

643
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like so they did the third overall pick on

644
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold turn the page on that second overall pick.

645
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 3: Will what do they hope he's ready to play in

646
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 3: two years when Rogers?

647
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 1: I don't know, he's still a young quarterback, right, I

648
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: don't know.

649
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 3: I guess I would argue how many?

650
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 2: Honestly, how long do you think Aaron Rodgers is going

651
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 2: to stay with the Jets?

652
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 3: Two years? Max?

653
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: Exactly?

654
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 3: But then Wilson's contract is up, like they're not gonna

655
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 3: pick up his fifth year option. He's done. He'd be gone.

656
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 3: He'd be gone after that, He's gonna be gone. This

657
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 3: is the second season, right, so he'll be gone by

658
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 3: the time Rogers is ready to be out of New York.

659
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: By the way, you know which NFL team has the

660
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: second longest playoff drought right now?

661
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 3: The second longest playoff drought? Know who would that be?

662
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: That would be the Denver Broncos.

663
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 1: Oh, seven straight years since they won that last Super Bowl.

664
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: They have the second longest drought of any team out there.

Speaker 1: On the other side, Lamar Jackson finally got a deal

670
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,360
Speaker 1: done with the Baltimore Ravens, and he did it without

671
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: an agent, and he got a lot of money. Could

672

00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson is now the highest paid player in the

682
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 1: National Football League and he got it done without an agent. Jeff,

683
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 1: I can't help but think that this deal finally got

684
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 1: done doing part to the Eagles making Jalen Hurts for

685
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: at least a day or so, the highest paid player

686
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So do you think other players may

687
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: look at this? Lamar Jackson situation. It took a long time,

688
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: but ultimately he got what he wanted and the Ravens

689
00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: get to keep their quarterback. Is this an isolated acinent

690
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: or more guys gonna say, why am I paying an

691
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: agent to do the work that obviously I can get

692
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: done by myself.

693
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 3: Well, we also don't know if if someone helped, because

694
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 3: we heard that he was having someone help him, right,

695
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 3: like you know this guy contacting teams on his behalf, right,

696
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 3: I don't do We know that no one helped Lamar

697
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 3: Jackson at all through this entire process. He just did

698
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 3: it by himself. I think that sometimes some of the

699
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 3: players that don't have agents have someone help them who's

700
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 3: a manager of some sorts, someone who's able to help

701
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 3: with some of the legal ease of the contract, right,

702
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: and little things here and there. I will say that

703
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 3: for a lot of players, an agent and paying the

704
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 3: agent is just being able to not have to worry

705
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 3: about a part of your life, right, and the fee

706
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 3: of whatever you negotiate, if it's one percent up to

707
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: three percent, A lot of players in Lamar Jackson's shoes

708
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 3: will say, look, man, I'll pay you the two million

709
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 3: of the two hundred and you know, of the two

710
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 3: hundred million I'm getting, just don't have to worry about this,

711
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 3: Just like to not have to worry about it. I

712
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 3: don't want I don't want to have to talk to

713
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 3: the Ravens. I don't want to have to figure out,

714
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 3: you know, how many years I'm getting, how much guaranteed

715
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 3: I should get. I don't want to have to deal

716
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 3: with the little contract details of the roster bonuses and

717
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,280
Speaker 3: when they're paid out and is it is it guaranteed

718
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 3: for skill and injury? And is there no trade clause?

719
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 3: Can they franchise tag me? Can they not? I think

720
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 3: players are are okay, a lot of them just like yeah, man,

721
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 3: I'd rather pay someone to deal with that. I know

722
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 3: in my career I was found with paying my agent

723
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,560
Speaker 3: to do that for me. Lamar Jackson didn't want to

724
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,439
Speaker 3: do that, and more power to him. It worked for him.

725
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 3: It totally worked. He got what he wanted in the end,

726
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 3: not everything. Obviously. He wanted the highest guaranteed contract of

727
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,879
Speaker 3: all time, but no one was given that to him. Right,

728
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 3: excuse me? He wanted the most guaranteed money. Sorry, he

729
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 3: won the fully guaranteed contract he want. He wanted the

730
00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 3: Shaun Watson if no one was giving him. We knew

731
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 3: that all and then he saw the Hurts deal get done.

732
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 3: It never happened. But here's one thing to do to consider.

733
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:09,400
Speaker 3: I say this often with quarterback contracts, is the money

734
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 3: is virtually guaranteed, right like Lamar. Lamar needs to be

735
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 3: hurt for two years in a row to see that,

736
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 3: to not see that entire contract, you know, people say, well,

737
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 3: Mahomes did a ten year deal, so long it's the

738
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 3: Chiefs are never cutting Patrick Mahomes.

739
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 8: Ever, they're never cutting him. The Ravens are never cutting

740
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 8: Lamar Jackson. If he misses this entire first year with

741
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 8: an injury, guess what, He's coming back next year and

742
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 8: he's their quarterback.

743
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 3: So the idea that you need to make this as

744
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 3: messy as he did was probably not necessary.

745
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 4: Right.

746
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 3: It was a lot of drama for what I think

747
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 3: me and you. I didn't listen to your comments on

748
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 3: this the last couple of months, but I would imagine

749
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 3: you're in line with me. The most logical outcome was

750
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 3: he was back with the Ravens.

751
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: Right, and it sort of helped explain why they were

752
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 1: or no offers that publicly offers for you know, two

753
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,799
Speaker 1: number one picks, that he was an unprotected franchise guy,

754
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: and that never Endone's like, why isn't anybody interested in

755
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson.

756
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 3: Because he was going back to the Ravens and anything

757
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 3: was exactly And I think a lot of teams said, look,

758
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,399
Speaker 3: you know, if you're the Colts, okay, let's use a culture.

759
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 3: For example, I thought I thought the Colts were was

760
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 3: a legit opportunity for him to go to the Colts.

761
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 3: If you're the Colts, you pay Lamar Jackson all that

762
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 3: money guaranteed, give up two first round drafts or just

763
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 3: draft Anthony Richardson. You'd rather just draft Anthony Richardson. And

764
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 3: that's what a lot I think a lot of teams

765
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 3: came down to, is that the cost benefits wanting to

766
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 3: pay Lamar maybe some of the noise. And also I

767
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 3: think that everyone figured out that he would go back

768
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 3: to the Ravens and look, Lamar's inn a ton of

769
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 3: winning in Baltimore. I'm going to pick them to win

770
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 3: the division again because guess what all he's done in

771
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 3: Baltimore is win. I think he's won seventy five percent

772
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 3: of the starts. The issue is the last two years,

773
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 3: he's finished one in your reserve not playing, not physically,

774
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 3: but he hasn't been playing, and so that I think

775
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 3: is the biggest concern is the health is now that

776
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 3: he's still healthy.

777
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 1: All right, So obviously he is currently the highest paid quarterback.

778
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 1: We're all waiting for the Justin Herbert and Joe Burrow

779
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 1: deals to eventually get done. By the way, how about

780
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: the Chargers. They picked up the fifth year option on

781
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. There, that's a typical Chargers move. But there's

782
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 1: another quarterback out there, the guy that's actually the best

783
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: quarterback in the league, Patrick Mahomes. Do you think there's

784
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: ever going to be a time when Mahomes, who signed

785
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: that long, long term deal with the Chiefs, may reconsider

786
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: that contract and saying why are all these quarterbacks making

787
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: more money than me? When I am the best quarterback

788
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Could you ever see Mahomes or is

789
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: he going to follow the route of Tom Brady, who

790
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 1: at no point was ever the highest paid quarterback in

791
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 1: the NFL?

792
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,720
Speaker 3: I don't know. Mahomes follow the Chiefs obviously very closely.

793
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 3: He does not seem like the guy that's ever going

794
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 3: to demand to be the highest paid. I think the Chiefs,

795
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 3: you know, next ye or two, we'll throw more money

796
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 3: in his direction to make him happy. But he's making

797
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,479
Speaker 3: you know, seven ten million dollars off the field. He's

798
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 3: making forty to forty five on the field. I think

799
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 3: he's totally just content with winning championships in Kansas City

800
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 3: and making fifty million dollars a year with the Chiefs

801
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 3: and with endorsements, and if it helps him have one

802
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 3: world wide receiver that they save seven million dollars a

803
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 3: year on his contract, he's fine doing that.

804
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:25,879
Speaker 2: All right.

805
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: The Lakers have moved on to the second round of

806
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Lebron and company. Who would be at a

807
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 1: better opponent for them in the next round, the Warriors

808
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: or the Kings. We're gonna break it all down, keep

809
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,000

Speaker 1: you've been in these studios in the past. But the

825
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: new studio I can see Sam clearly. I can see

826
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: producer Brandon clearly. I actually can see Nick. We have

827
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: never been able to see the guys that are actually

828
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: given are the updates, so we have a clear view

829
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: of everybody. We're making a few adjustments, but all of

830
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 1: this will be resolved. But by the way, Jerry Springer

831
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,760
Speaker 1: passed away this week and I was showing the guys

832
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: an interview. I actually had a one on one in

833
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 1: studio interview in our old studios with Jerry Springer.

834
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 2: He was a great guy, you know, I'll put it

835
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:56,800
Speaker 2: this way. He was one of those.

836
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 1: Guys that was very honest about his celebrity and how

837
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,799
Speaker 1: he became a seleelebrity and the kind of television that

838
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 1: he Seed over the years he was he was great.

839
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: He'll be missed. He had an impact, There's no question

840
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: about that. Did you watch Springer, especially during his A

841
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 1: day I did.

842
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of a youth and

843
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 3: just tell you, miss I think that was back when

844
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 3: I thought it was sort of like real if that

845
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 3: makes sense.

846
00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.

847
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean sure you bought.

848
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,760
Speaker 3: Into it before I realized what kind of the production

849
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 3: side of television. But yeah, no, I have a good

850
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 3: friend I work with who knew him closely, so he

851
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 3: shared some stories with me this week about kind of

852
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 3: the kindness that he that Jerry had and whatnot. So

853
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:40,319
Speaker 3: it's good to hear from him about that.

854
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't take himself too seriously.

855
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: He realized he sort of happened upon a format that

856
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: was working for him and he was the perfect guy

857
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 1: to carry it off. So yeah, we're in our new

858
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: studios and having a clear view of everybody works, especially

859
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 1: I see Nick here.

860
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 2: I mean it's unbelievable.

861
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 1: I mean, like Nick's talking to me now, Nick, you

862
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 1: want to be listening right now because you're mister Sacramento Kings.

863
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 4: Here.

864
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,280
Speaker 1: The Kings and Warriors will have their game seven tomorrow.

865
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 1: What's interesting is that the Eastern Conference semis are going

866
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,280
Speaker 1: on now.

867
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 3: Well, so is the Western Conference tonight.

868
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we've got we got semis going on before

869
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 1: we actually finished one of the opening round playoff series,

870
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: so we have the Sons and Nuggets. So actually that's

871
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,280
Speaker 1: the one game tonight is game one of the Western

872
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 1: Conference semis between the Suns and the Nuggets. But as

873
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: far as the Lakers last night and their forty point

874
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: blowout victory over the Memphis Grizzlies, let's let's talk about

875
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: your guy, mister Oregon Duck, Dylan.

876
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,360
Speaker 3: Brooks, my guys lebron Lebrony.

877
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: I understand, but you share a school with Dylan Brooks.

878
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 3: Shunned.

879
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,280
Speaker 1: You know the funny thing about a guy like Dylan

880
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 1: Brooks because people say, well, you have like a Draymond

881
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: Green or Patrick.

882
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 2: Exactly. There are certain guys.

883
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 1: I'll tell you another guy that went back in the

884
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 1: day and it wasn't maybe as overt as some of

885
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: these guys, but Derek Fisher played that role for the

886
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 1: Lakers for years and years. He would do the dirty stuff,

887
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: some of the things that had to get done behind

888
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 1: the scenes. So let Kobe go get a game winning

889
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: against this exactly.

890
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 2: Well, that's the whole point.

891
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: In other words, I'm mentioning guys that actually showed they

892
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: had some game where beyond their antics, that get actually contribute.

893
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks, would you even want this guy still on

894
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 1: your team next season? I don't know if he does

895
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,280
Speaker 1: the Grizzlies and he favors I don't.

896
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,439
Speaker 3: Know if he's back next year with the way he played. Okay,

897
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 3: here's the thing about the Brooks thing too. Yeah, and

898
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 3: you mentioned you, Derek Fisher. I think it's totally okay

899
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 3: during the game to have one player whose job and

900
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 3: it is just so annoyed as someone on the other team. Absolutely,

901
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 3: we did that in football, like we would we would pick.

902
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,920
Speaker 3: There were games. It was one of my favorite moments

903
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 3: in the NFL. There was we were playing a team

904
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 3: and one of our offensive linemen knew one of the

905
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 3: defensive liignment. No, I don't think there were friends, but

906
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 3: he knew about him. He said, look, guys, every play,

907
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,720
Speaker 3: one of us has to go in the guy's face

908
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 3: and say a mean word to him every play, and

909
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,800
Speaker 3: it would throw him off his game. So every single

910
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 3: play of that game, Steve, one offensive Lineman of the

911
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 3: Five of Us went up to him after the play

912
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 3: instead of mean warn't to him, okay, and it totally

913
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,760
Speaker 3: made him furious the entire game. He didn't play very well. Okay,

914
00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 3: totally fine to do that on the court, on the field,

915
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 3: but Derek Fisher wasn't going and doing it in the press, right,

916
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,759
Speaker 3: he wasn't calling players out. One of the best ever

917
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 3: to do it in Lebron James saying I don't respect

918
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 3: Lebron James. I would have actually been okay if Dylan

919
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 3: Brooks had just said what he said and left that

920
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 3: their respect part out of it, because to say like

921
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 3: you might not you might not like Lebron James and

922
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,959
Speaker 3: playing people don't like Lebron James, but you can't say

923
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 3: that you don't respect him as a player, right, There's

924
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 3: no way that validates everything you said. And then it

925
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 3: also you had the Lakers kind of in a moment.

926
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,439
Speaker 3: It was the series was one to one, Lakers didn't

927
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 3: play well in Game two. It kind of had him

928
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,800
Speaker 3: in a moment of like a little bit of weakness.

929
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 3: They were showing a little bit of like, ah, you know,

930
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 3: maybe you know, maybe it's not And then all of

931
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 3: a sudden you kind of gave him a spark and

932
00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 3: ever since that moment, their offense was much better. They

933
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 3: played defense better, like it gave him a little bit

934
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 3: of of a gidea up and it just was dumb

935
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 3: thing to do. It was a dumbe co after Lebron

936
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 3: unless you're gonna put the Lakers down. And last time,

937
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 3: obviously a forty point loss. To me, it showed what

938
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 3: the Lakers can be. It's not what they always are,

939
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 3: but when you have other guys outside of a d

940
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 3: and Lebron contributing like Russell can, like we've seen Reeves

941
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 3: at a certain time, especially Game one of the Memphis series,

942
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 3: when when you have someone else outside of those two

943
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 3: guys putting up over twenty points with the way the

944
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 3: Lakers play defense hard to beat them, it really is.

945
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know interesting about Lebron James in this series

946
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,319
Speaker 1: because I'm so I'm watching the game last night.

947
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 2: It was a buddy's birthday.

948
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: And he's a huge Lakers fan, and he was like,

949
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: this is a perfect birthday, man, Lakers gonna win the championship.

950
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,439
Speaker 2: I'm like, slow down, slow down a little bit.

951
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: Here coming up in the next round, They're either going

952
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:24,759
Speaker 1: to play a Sacramento Kings team that is very young

953
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 1: and athletic, and you chow heart, I mean to go

954
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: on the road against the Warriors after who saw that

955
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 1: one coming? You just thought, all right, they're just not

956
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 1: ready for the spotlight. They've been out of the playoffs

957
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: way too long. First playoff experience for these kids, the

958
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 1: de Aaron Foxes, the simonas Is, all these guys, and

959
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,759
Speaker 1: they go on the road after losing Game five at

960
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: home and win convincingly. So I'm sitting there with the

961
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 1: Lakers and I'm trying to figure this out. If you're

962
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 1: the Lakers right now, and again, the Lakers having advanced

963
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,760
Speaker 1: through a playoff series in a non bubble playoff series

964
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: for the first time since twenty twelve, who do you

965
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: want to see here? I mean, do you want to

966
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: see the younger Kings team or do you want to

967
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,399
Speaker 1: see your old nemesis the Warriors, who obviously have all

968
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 1: that pedigree. This is a tough We were talking about

969
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,240
Speaker 1: this before the show, Jeff, you didn't have an immediate answer.

970
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts here?

971
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 3: I think you would try to avoid the Warriors. I

972
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 3: think in the what the Kings did last night shocked me.

973
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 3: I thought the Warriors, you know they've been They've been

974
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 3: a terrible road team all season, all season, right, the

975
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 3: first two games of this series they lost in Sacramento.

976
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 3: They obviously won the next two games at home, but

977
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 3: they won the Game four by a point. I thought

978
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,399
Speaker 3: the Kings would win Game five, and then the Wars

979
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,359
Speaker 3: won Game six and Game seven. Anything happens. Obviously, that flipped, right,

980
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 3: and games stunned me last night. I was shocked. Now

981
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 3: everyone's penciling the Kings to win Game seven. I would say,

982
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 3: you know, not so fast, friend, right, Like, the Warriors

983
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 3: are champions and they're not going to come out for.

984
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: The Warriors also were the worst road team in the

985
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: l eleven and thirty on the road to win twice.

986
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 3: But they just want a game five on the road though, Like, yeah,

987
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:07,880
Speaker 3: you know, but they just want a game five of

988
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 3: the road. They're a championship team. They're not just going

989
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 3: to roll over even though they didn't game since. I

990
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 3: felt like I think I think it's the Kings. I

991
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 3: think if you're the Lakers, you'd rather play the more

992
00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 3: inexperienced team who's not been that spot before, who you know,

993
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 3: the youth might get to them. They don't have. I

994
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,799
Speaker 3: don't think the interior presence to really maybe kind of,

995
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 3: I think you'd rather face the Kings. I feel more

996
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 3: comfortable than like as a fan of Lakers and like

997
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 3: waiting for that. I don't want to see that Steph

998
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,760
Speaker 3: Curry game happen, you know what I mean? Or Clay

999
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 3: just you know, in game six, like he always seems

1000
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 3: to do, has forty points in that Game six or

1001
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 3: game five, you know what I mean. I just feel

1002
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,959
Speaker 3: more comfortable playing the younger team in the Kings.

1003
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 1: All Right, I gotta bring Nick into this conversation here,

1004
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,240
Speaker 1: So Nick, you know this King's team.

1005
00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 2: Well, I can't imagine.

1006
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 1: What it's going to be like tomorrow in Sacramento for

1007
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: a Game seven and against the defending champions. But if

1008
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 1: the Kings were to win this game in advance on

1009
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 1: against the Lakers, how do you see that matchup?

1010
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 7: I like it for the Kings just because I think

1011
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 7: their youth has shown to be an advantage just in

1012
00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:14,560
Speaker 7: their legs, and they've been able to go back and forth,

1013
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 7: you know, certainly limited travel has helped. They're just taking

1014
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 7: a bus back and forth between Sacramento and San Francisco,

1015
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 7: and so you're gonna have a short turnaround going from

1016
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 7: Game seven into the next series against the Lakers. So

1017
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,439
Speaker 7: I like their youth. I think they've got some lineup versatility.

1018
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 7: So Bonus, I think is due to break out. If

1019
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:37,360
Speaker 7: not tonight, hopefully he can have more success against the Lakers.

1020
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,759
Speaker 7: I've been kind of waiting for him to show. But

1021
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 7: credit to the Warriors, between Loony and Draymond, they've been

1022
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 7: beating him up.

1023
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not going to give the Kings game seven.

1024
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 1: I'm with Jeff on this one. The Warriors could still

1025
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,680
Speaker 1: find a way to advance in this thing, but for sure.

1026
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 3: But again, by the way, soonis an Ad might be

1027
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 3: like the softest seven foot matchup where we're going to

1028
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 3: see there's like two guys that don't really want to

1029
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 3: touch each other that are seven feet tall. Ad to

1030
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 3: me is one of the most frustrating players I ever

1031
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,239
Speaker 3: seen in my life. Well, he's not playing well.

1032
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 2: You know, here's the thing about the Lakers right now.

1033
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 3: He should average thirty three points a game.

1034
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 1: He should, but he does. Lebron is in the same position. Guys.

1035
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 1: Here's here's the fact. If you watch this series.

1036
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 3: Two points a game, he's just chilling sometimes.

1037
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, thirty eight exactly, And that's the point.

1038
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 1: In other words, you're watching Lebron and ad in this

1039
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 1: playoff series against the Grizzlies. They both had multiple off games,

1040
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,280
Speaker 1: you know, after that twenty twenty game that Lebron had,

1041
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 1: he played awful in game five, and neither one of

1042
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 1: them really was a key. Last night it was, you know, Lebron.

1043
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:53,320
Speaker 3: Lebron has seemed to me in this series to be

1044
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 3: pacing himself like he's been to me. It looks like

1045
00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 3: to me he has been very diligent with how much

1046
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:04,640
Speaker 3: effort he's going to give in these games. And I

1047
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,840
Speaker 3: think he's been trying to figure out which guys on

1048
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 3: the team he can trust in each game, because we've

1049
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,839
Speaker 3: seen so far in certain games that it's not there's

1050
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:17,360
Speaker 3: no there's no set and stone third guy right. Sometimes

1051
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 3: it's Reeves, sometimes just hotch it more, sometimes it's Russell,

1052
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,879
Speaker 3: and the early games he's trying to figure out who

1053
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,439
Speaker 3: that player is going to be, and that's taking away

1054
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 3: some of the opportunities for him to score. Plus again,

1055
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:31,720
Speaker 3: he's thirty eight. I think he's just he just can't

1056
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:36,800
Speaker 3: do the thirty five you know ten and eight night anymore.

1057
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,279
Speaker 3: And that's just what's why. It's why Anthony Davis is there,

1058
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 3: that's his job. They brought Ad in to do this

1059
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 3: when Lebron is this old. Ad is supposed to be

1060
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 3: the guy to go score thirty points a game.

1061
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,279
Speaker 1: Well, on the other side, I want to get into

1062
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 1: the whole load management thing, which was designed to preserve

1063
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 1: the health of star players once the playoffs, and that

1064
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 1: has backfired on a number of teams.

1065
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,040
Speaker 2: And we'll explain why.

1066
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:08,800
Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Saturday, Steve Hartman and Jeff Schwartz

1067
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: here on this beautiful Saturday once again, we are live

1068
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 1: from the tyraq dot com studios. I really wanted to

1069
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 1: talk to you, Jeff, on this whole load management thing,

1070
00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 1: not just concerning the NBA, but just sports in general.

1071
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,200
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna, as usual, turn back the clock as

1072
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: I often do on this show. Nineteen eighty nine All

1073
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: Star Game Baseball All Star Game was in Anaheim, and

1074
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:38,280
Speaker 1: they used to still have a old timers game, which

1075
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. You see a bunch of fat, overweight old

1076
00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 1: guys out in the baseball field, but they used to

1077
00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 1: have this old timers game and sitting there before the

1078
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,279
Speaker 1: game was Warren Spott, who was the winning its left

1079
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,279
Speaker 1: handed pitcher in the history of Major League Baseball three

1080
00:53:51,360 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty three wins. At age forty two with

1081
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Braves, he not only had a record of

1082
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,440
Speaker 1: twenty three and seven, he led the National League with

1083
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 1: twenty two complete games. And it was at that time,

1084
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 1: route the late eighties early nineties, when we started seeing

1085
00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:12,400
Speaker 1: a little pushback on complete games, sort of the introduction

1086
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 1: Dennis Secrecy with the A's of these one inning.

1087
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:16,680
Speaker 2: Close out relief pitchers.

1088
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,360
Speaker 1: And I asked him, I said, how is it possible

1089
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,359
Speaker 1: that you were able to complete twenty two games at

1090
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 1: the age of forty two?

1091
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:23,439
Speaker 2: And he just laughed.

1092
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 1: He goes, you know, the idea that somehow less is

1093
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 1: more is wrong. He said, my arm was stronger in

1094
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: September than it was in April. You condition yourself to

1095
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:39,319
Speaker 1: build strength over the course.

1096
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,240
Speaker 2: Of an entire year.

1097
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 1: You know, we talk about the NBA and John Stockton,

1098
00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: Carl Malone playing by the way in an NBA that

1099
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 1: was far more physical than it is today. When I

1100
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: say never missed games, Malone never played less than eighty

1101
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,480
Speaker 1: games in any season until that last year with the

1102
00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:00,760
Speaker 1: Lakers and Stockton in nineteen seasons played every every single

1103
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 1: game seventeen times. A forty year old Michael Jordan in

1104
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,880
Speaker 1: his last year with the Wizards played all eighty two games.

1105
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:13,759
Speaker 1: So this fallacy that somehow taking twenty games off a

1106
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:18,080
Speaker 1: year is going to preserve you once you get into

1107
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:23,000
Speaker 1: the postseason is a lie. It is a complete lie.

1108
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,800
Speaker 1: And I want to take your own experience in the NFL,

1109
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,280
Speaker 1: because are we going to see guys suddenly say, especially

1110
00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: when the NFL will go to an eighteen game season,

1111
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 1: although I anticipate there'll be a second bye week when

1112
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,240
Speaker 1: they do that, of guys saying, well, wait a second.

1113
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 1: You know, I got a lot of guaranteed money. Now

1114
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: this is sort of new in the NFL, more guaranteed money.

1115
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: I'll take off four games, you know, because I'll preserve myself.

1116
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 2: So I'm one hundred percent come playoffs.

1117
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,839
Speaker 1: So all that being said, what is your stance on

1118
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 1: this load management beneficial to athletes in terms of the

1119
00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,719
Speaker 1: games that matter most at the end.

1120
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,640
Speaker 3: Well, the load management thing in the NBA was supposed

1121
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:05,440
Speaker 3: to be so when you come to the playoffs, you're

1122
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:07,839
Speaker 3: able to play in the playoffs and it's it's what's

1123
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 3: not working right, Yeah, So like that's you know, that's

1124
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:13,320
Speaker 3: the things it was supposed to do and continues to

1125
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 3: supposed to make sure that you're able to play this

1126
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:19,399
Speaker 3: time of year.

1127
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 1: And I don't know that Michael Jordan play at the

1128
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: end of the year. You know, when he came back,

1129
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:28,440
Speaker 1: he played eighty two games all three seasons in ninety six,

1130
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,799
Speaker 1: ninety seven, and ninety eight and played obviously every game

1131
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: in the playoffs and won championships all three years. Where

1132
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 1: did this idea come that if you take off twenty

1133
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 1: games during the regular season, somehow you'll be better prepared

1134
00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: to show up and play at an elite level. Because

1135
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:45,080
Speaker 1: getting back to the whole Lebron ad here's all we're

1136
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: seeing so far from both these guys and missed a

1137
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: lot of games this year. They can't put together back

1138
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: to back great games. They'll have a good game, yeah,

1139
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 1: and then they take a game off and then they

1140
00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 1: come back up with a good game.

1141
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:56,359
Speaker 2: It's not working with them.

1142
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 3: Lebron might be just age he's thirty eight, Yes he is,

1143
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 3: then that's fair for me, Lebron and be like, you

1144
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 3: know what, maybe just you know, thirty eight, it's not

1145
00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,279
Speaker 3: gonna be quite the same, all right. So the thing

1146
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,239
Speaker 3: about the load management and the NFL is never gonna happen

1147
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 3: is that the team just won't pay you if you're

1148
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 3: not going to play something. They wouldn't do it. Like

1149
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:15,080
Speaker 3: if you're just like, yeah, I'm not gonna You've already

1150
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 3: guaranteed contracts, though not everyone does, well a lot of

1151
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,440
Speaker 3: guys now do if guys start taking games off for

1152
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 3: load management. I promise you the owners will, we will like, hey,

1153
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 3: let's redo the CBA immediately, like they'll find a ways

1154
00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 3: not pay guys, but also eighteen games versus eighty two

1155
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 3: games and whatnot. The load management is supposed to supposed

1156
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:38,320
Speaker 3: to make sure that guys are able to put the postseason,

1157
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:41,720
Speaker 3: and obviously that has not been the case for you know,

1158
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 3: a Kawhi Leonard this year. It worked in Toronto obviously,

1159
00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,360
Speaker 3: but there was talk that you know that Kawhi Leonard

1160
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 3: had knee issues when the Clippers resigned him anyways, you know, yeah,

1161
00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 3: and they did anyway, So look, the data. I don't

1162
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,040
Speaker 3: have access to the data, but everyone will tell you.

1163
00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 3: The data shows you you or tells you that the

1164
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 3: NBA players play too many games. Okay, I believe you

1165
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:07,720
Speaker 3: do that point. Well, here's the.

1166
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,880
Speaker 2: Thing, all of a sudden, it's too many games.

1167
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 1: If you had the same number of games basically for

1168
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 1: the entire history of the league, and all of a sudden,

1169
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 1: now it's too many games.

1170
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 3: All right. So I had to do two a days

1171
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 3: in the NFL, right, I was part of the old

1172
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 3: I guess it's like two cbas Togo through CBA, and

1173
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 3: I did and I did had to do. I had

1174
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 3: to do uh two days. And people often ask me,

1175
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 3: you know, the older younger players, like, how did you

1176
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,400
Speaker 3: do two days? I never did. H'm I didn't do

1177
00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 3: them in college. I didn't do in high school. I

1178
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,440
Speaker 3: did them in college as well. And I say, I

1179
00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 3: didn't know any better. You didn't know any better. There

1180
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 3: was no choice. You just did. You had practice twice

1181
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 3: a day. That's what That's what the sport was. You

1182
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 3: practice twice a day. And when you talk about older

1183
00:58:56,480 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 3: players playing every game, which they did, that's what the

1184
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 3: sport was. There was no alternative, there was no load management.

1185
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 3: So players didn't know any better. If Michael Jordan had

1186
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 3: known that, it was basically quote allowed accepted that you

1187
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 3: can take a back to back off if your body

1188
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 3: doesn't feel right. He may or may not have done it.

1189
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it wasn't accepted back then, so

1190
00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 3: I think it's hard to just say, well, they didn't

1191
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 3: do you're aboutly rights team. They did not do it

1192
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 3: back then, But I also did two days bad then

1193
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,720
Speaker 3: because I didn't know any better, right, and it just

1194
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 3: wasn't a thing that NBA players did twenty thirty, forty

1195
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 3: fifty years ago. But now they do, and look, it

1196
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:42,520
Speaker 3: seems that is a consumer I'll tell you I don't

1197
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,520
Speaker 3: like it because when I go buy tickets to a

1198
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 3: basketball game, I don't know if the guys I'm buying

1199
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 3: tickets to go watch are going to play. Kind of stinks.

1200
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 3: I saw a Lakers a couple of years ago in

1201
00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:57,000
Speaker 3: in Charlotte lebron ad both didn't play. It felt like

1202
00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 3: a big giant waie to spend two hundred fifty bucks

1203
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:01,760
Speaker 3: on tickets, good se seats and the two best players

1204
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 3: just didn't play that game. It's not good for consumers,

1205
01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:09,480
Speaker 3: but it's accepted now, so that's why guys do it.

1206
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 4: Well.

1207
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 2: I've shared this story of the last couple of weeks

1208
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 2: you'll love this. So I have for a friend of

1209
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:15,240
Speaker 2: mine who.

1210
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: Has had floor seats for the Clippers since nineteen eighty four,

1211
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 1: all the way back from the left San Diego came

1212
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,520
Speaker 1: to LA, to the old LA Sports Arena. He has

1213
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:27,280
Speaker 1: two tickets. He kepp two others he's trying to unload.

1214
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 1: Maybe you're interested in these tickets. All right, let me

1215
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 1: get tell you your seats. Here's what you get for

1216
01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:35,560
Speaker 1: sports arena. So this was, yeah, the old sports arena.

1217
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 1: It doesn't exist anymore, all right. So you have two

1218
01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: floor seats. Are the seats directly next to the visitors bench,

1219
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 1: so you're literally sitting on the floor next to the

1220
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 1: visitors bench. You also get obviously VIP parking.

1221
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:53,560
Speaker 2: You get a.

1222
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 1: VIP dinner every night that's included, and access to the

1223
01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:01,000
Speaker 1: VIP bathroom, which might be the most important thing. These

1224
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 1: two tickets season total cost three hundred and thirty six

1225
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: thousand dollars for two tickets for the season. By the way,

1226
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 1: you can pay that off and four equal payments in

1227
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: consecutive months of eighty four thousand a month if you

1228
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 1: like to do that, Jeff, So you can get those tickets.

1229
01:01:19,640 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 1: The problem for him trying to load those tickets right now,

1230
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 1: especially turn the playoffs, is exactly what we're talking about. Well,

1231
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: what exactly am I getting? I mean, what am I

1232
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 1: getting for those tickets? If you're telling me that the

1233
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 1: two guys that you paid eighty five million dollars to

1234
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:37,480
Speaker 1: you are going to show up for less than half

1235
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 1: the games, or even half the games, or even sixty

1236
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 1: percent of the games. I'm not paying that kind of

1237
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:43,640
Speaker 1: money for those tickets.

1238
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think it's going to be pretty

1239
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,320
Speaker 3: interesting what the Clippers do next with the new arena,

1240
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 3: right Like, if you.

1241
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 2: Are what can they do? Those two guys are under contract.

1242
01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 1: They gutted their drafts for Paul George because Kawhi said,

1243
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:02,760
Speaker 1: I will sign with you only if you get Paul George. Uh,

1244
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:04,840
Speaker 1: they signed it away. Kawhi.

1245
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 2: Believe me.

1246
01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: Here, you got Steve Bomber, who, according to Forbes is

1247
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 1: still the tenth wealthiest person on the planet, worth an

1248
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 1: excess of ninety billion dollars, and he has no control

1249
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 1: over his own team. I know it's all in the

1250
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:23,040
Speaker 1: hands of Kawhi Leonard, no questions asked.

1251
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,240
Speaker 3: I don't mean the NBA has this is what you know?

1252
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:28,280
Speaker 3: The NBA is a players league, right, This is what

1253
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:31,160
Speaker 3: you get the downside to the players league as you

1254
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 3: get a situation where you know, you give Kawhi this

1255
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 3: money and now you're opening up a new arena with

1256
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 3: your one thousand and three toilets, and I love, I

1257
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,440
Speaker 3: love getting more toilets, the better, And.

1258
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 2: Exactly, you can never have enough toilets.

1259
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:49,919
Speaker 3: You think about the Clippers, man, yeah, how many people

1260
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 3: are going to go to this arena in Englewood.

1261
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 1: Well, by the way that thing is being built, my

1262
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 1: son just drove by it a couple of days ago.

1263
01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 2: It is going to be spectacular.

1264
01:02:58,400 --> 01:02:59,440
Speaker 3: No, it's going to be great.

1265
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:02,000
Speaker 1: But if these tickets here are three hundred and thirty

1266
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 1: six thousand dollars for two tickets, Now imagine what they're

1267
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 1: going to be in that new arena.

1268
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:08,480
Speaker 3: There's just not Clippers fans.

1269
01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:13,040
Speaker 1: And that's that's the other thing, especially now we just

1270
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 1: saw the Clippers worst case scenario, right, the Clippers, you know,

1271
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,000
Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard for two games, look like wow, he's the

1272
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,960
Speaker 1: best player on the court against his sons, and then

1273
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 1: he sits out the rest of the series and they

1274
01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 1: go down.

1275
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 2: And now the Lakers have moved on to the second round.

1276

Speaker 1: Nick Cope is a back So I have the Kings

1285
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:57,960
Speaker 1: menu dizine load management. I don't remember Fox or Simona

1286
01:03:58,040 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 1: sitting out all that many games. No, it was really

1287
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,360
Speaker 1: an issue for the Kings this year at all.

1288
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:06,800
Speaker 7: They really good team chemistry and togetherness. I think Mike

1289

Speaker 7: Brown coming in has been You cannot under sell how

1290
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:12,800
Speaker 7: key Mike Brown has been to their success this season.

1291
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,800

1292
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,760
Speaker 1: big word chemistry. Yep. So this is another thing that

1293
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:20,560

Speaker 1: guys all playing together for a majority of the season

1295
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 1: and just think, hey, we'll throw them out there for

1296
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 1: the postseason and they'll figure it out, that's not going

1297
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:30,840

Speaker 1: Once again, we're how many live from the tyraq dot

1348
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:05,600
Speaker 1: com studios. Lawrence Frank, who's the president of basketball Operation

1349
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,360
Speaker 1: for the Clippers. Can we hear a little sound from

1350
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,800
Speaker 1: this guy, because there's there's a couple of things that

1351
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,520
Speaker 1: he's been talking about that are very interesting as far

1352
01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:15,840
Speaker 1: as the future of that franchise.

1353
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:17,840
Speaker 2: Let's hear from him. Injuries suck.

1354
01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:22,200
Speaker 9: They suck, but they happen, you know, for quime PG

1355
01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 9: for everything they put into their their bodies to be

1356
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:28,680
Speaker 9: healthy at this time and to be injured, it's it's

1357
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:29,920
Speaker 9: devastating for them.

1358
01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:32,440
Speaker 2: They're agonized, it's it's painful.

1359
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:34,520
Speaker 9: But I just I feel for our fans who have

1360
01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:36,520
Speaker 9: who have been there every step of the way, and

1361
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 9: for Steve who's given us all the resources to try

1362
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 9: to achieve our goal each and every year, which is

1363
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,320
Speaker 9: to win a championship. So that's that's hard. Yet at

1364
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 9: the same time, when you take a step back, what

1365
01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 9: I don't want to do is have the injuries or

1366
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 9: how hard we fought in the postseason to mask a

1367
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:00,360
Speaker 9: disappointing regular season. We have to be honest with ourselves

1368
01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 9: and we have to look in the mirror. It starts

1369
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:06,920
Speaker 9: with me, and we have to get back to honoring

1370
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 9: and respecting the regular season.

1371
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 1: All right, here's the difference for the Clippers as opposed

1372
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:15,720
Speaker 1: to many organizations. So Clippers had the highest payroll.

1373
01:08:15,320 --> 01:08:17,639
Speaker 2: In the NBA this year, number one payroll.

1374
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:20,599
Speaker 1: In fact, Steve Bomber will have to pay out because

1375
01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:24,599
Speaker 1: of the luxury tax and everything else, about three hundred

1376
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,400
Speaker 1: and seventy five million dollars, okay, and again for a

1377
01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,720
Speaker 1: man worth ninety billion dollars. That's not going to break

1378
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:32,760
Speaker 1: his bank account. So this guy can throw around as

1379
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:34,559
Speaker 1: much money as he wants and it's not a problem

1380
01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:37,960
Speaker 1: for him, considering he could literally buy the entire league.

1381
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 1: That being said, Frank is also saying that they are

1382
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:46,320
Speaker 1: anxious to extend the contracts of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George,

1383
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,360
Speaker 1: which has got to be really good news for these guys.

1384
01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:51,599
Speaker 1: I mean, wow, we don't even have to play. We

1385
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 1: have two years left on our contracts, so you want

1386
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 1: to extend our deals even further. So, I mean this is.

1387
01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,839
Speaker 3: Look at NFL thing where you get cap relief, right deal.

1388
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 1: No cap relief at all. And and by the way,

1389
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 1: Frank also said they knew that Kawhi Leonard had at

1390
01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 1: tormentiscus after Game two, which is funny because on the

1391
01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 1: injury report they just said he had a knee sprain,

1392
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 1: so they may be facing a fine on that one,

1393
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:22,280
Speaker 1: but to double down on look at I've talked to

1394
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 1: Clippers fans. Their attitude about this team is blow it up,

1395
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 1: it's not working. But the Clippers have a completely different

1396
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:33,599
Speaker 1: view of this and they want to extend the deals

1397
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 1: of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. Hoping that it's going

1398
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,200
Speaker 1: to change. These guys are suddenly going to start playing

1399
01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:41,559
Speaker 1: seventy games this season. It's not gonna happen.

1400
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,240
Speaker 3: The most interesting part of that conversation is what he

1401
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:48,360
Speaker 3: said about honoring the regular season. Yeah, is it seems

1402
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 3: like they're kind of tired of the load management. If

1403
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,000
Speaker 3: it's not going to play, it's not going to play

1404
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:56,120
Speaker 3: in the postseason, which I totally understand, right, Like you, again,

1405
01:09:56,200 --> 01:10:01,559
Speaker 3: the trade off of not playing the regular is that

1406
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 3: you're going to have the payoff and the postseason. That

1407
01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 3: that's the point of it, right, And but so if

1408
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,000
Speaker 3: you don't have that trade off, then you're not going

1409
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:10,800
Speaker 3: to want to do the regular season part of it.

1410
01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:13,080
Speaker 3: And for the Clippers that you didn't have that trade

1411
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:16,120
Speaker 3: off this season. It's nice to hear someone who had

1412
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:18,000
Speaker 3: a you know, who did not live up to expectations

1413
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,800
Speaker 3: say that. You know, I know that disappointments different more

1414
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,679
Speaker 3: than failure. You know, that was that made the rounds

1415
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 3: this week with what Yannis said. But it's nice to

1416
01:10:27,600 --> 01:10:30,400
Speaker 3: have an executive say, yeah, we didn't live up to expectations.

1417
01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:33,160
Speaker 3: We we in a sense, we failed Again, the word

1418
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:36,400
Speaker 3: failure is a lot different than the word disappointment. I

1419
01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 3: mean that if you had asked Jannis was a season

1420
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:42,960
Speaker 3: a disappointment, that would have been a much different answer

1421
01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:44,679
Speaker 3: from him. I think he just would have said, yes,

1422
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 3: when you say failure, athletes take that more more personally.

1423
01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 1: Right.

1424
01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:51,840
Speaker 3: I only think there was a personal attack on him.

1425
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,479
Speaker 3: I would argue that it absolutely was a failure. Right,

1426
01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,400
Speaker 3: you were the number one seed. Your goal was winning

1427
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 3: a championship. Did you win the championship? No, you failed and.

1428
01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:03,480
Speaker 2: You break thirteen free throws in that last game.

1429
01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 3: And you you also you had to you had to

1430
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:08,640
Speaker 3: lead at home and you and you blew it. Yeah,

1431
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:10,800
Speaker 3: you fail on the season. It doesn't mean you're a

1432
01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,719
Speaker 3: failure or your organization is a failure. But this season

1433
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:16,120
Speaker 3: is a failure. You know, I said it was great,

1434
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:18,439
Speaker 3: like I'll show my kids that great. It was great

1435
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:20,960
Speaker 3: perspective on life. I liked it. You know, some days

1436
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,400
Speaker 3: are as good to me as are bad. You're gonna

1437
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 3: win in sports, you're gonna lose all great, But in

1438
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,880
Speaker 3: the big picture, expectations matter, right, And the expectation was

1439
01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:31,200
Speaker 3: for you to in the championship. The expectation for the Kings,

1440
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,360
Speaker 3: for example, right, like the Kings were to lose to

1441
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:39,200
Speaker 3: the Warriors tomorrow. This season's not a failure, of course not.

1442
01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 3: They weren't expected to be in this spot and to

1443
01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:46,599
Speaker 3: be in you know, in in the quarterfinals, right if

1444
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:50,439
Speaker 3: they win, it's all. It's all expectation based. Is how

1445
01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 3: we view the success of your team or not? So

1446
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,280
Speaker 3: as nine year an executive say, yeah, we didn't do

1447
01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 3: what we had to do in the regular season, and

1448
01:11:57,320 --> 01:11:59,600
Speaker 3: we need to honor that a little more often and

1449
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 3: a little hardy next season.

1450
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:03,960
Speaker 1: And they're four years together, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George,

1451
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,080
Speaker 1: since they've been Clippers, and four years have missed a

1452
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:10,040
Speaker 1: combined two hundred and eighty two games. I don't the

1453
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:13,000
Speaker 1: idea of extending their deals any further until they can

1454
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:17,360
Speaker 1: actually prove they can show up four games just seems insanity,

1455
01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:21,679
Speaker 1: Absolutely insanity. By the way, I wanted to also, Jeff,

1456
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,920
Speaker 1: since we're catching up. We haven't spoken in a while.

1457
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:25,960
Speaker 1: On the other side, I want to get out a

1458
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,680
Speaker 1: little early because I want to have some time. On

1459
01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:30,479
Speaker 1: the other side, major League Baseball. You and I are

1460
01:12:30,479 --> 01:12:33,560
Speaker 1: both big baseball fans, and they made some dramatic changes

1461
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:39,400
Speaker 1: in their game addressing problems they had and whether or

1462
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 1: not the NBA may take a look at what Major

1463
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,920
Speaker 1: League Baseball did this year and take a hard look

1464
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,280
Speaker 1: at the game they've got going on and maybe make

1465
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,960
Speaker 1: some adjustments that could help their game.

1466
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 2: We'll break it all down. This is Fox Sports Saturday.

1467
01:12:53,600 --> 01:13:00,919
Speaker 10: I've made a shots peave it, Steve Hart, Jeff Schwartz,

1468
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:03,799
Speaker 10: Fox Smart Saturday.

1469
01:13:03,800 --> 01:13:06,479
Speaker 1: Once again, we are coming alive from the Tairaq dot

1470
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:11,439
Speaker 1: com studios. All right, So, Jeff, you and I are

1471
01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:15,360
Speaker 1: baseball fans. And I went to a Dodger game a

1472
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. I actually went to a spring

1473
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:19,559
Speaker 1: training game, but this was first time I've been out

1474
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:22,680
Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium this season. And the first thing that

1475
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,519
Speaker 1: I saw was something I never thought I would ever

1476
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,000
Speaker 1: see in my lifetime, and that was a running clock

1477
01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 1: at a baseball game. And as a traditional as, my

1478
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:34,720
Speaker 1: initial thought was, this is bad. Baseball is not a

1479
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:35,880
Speaker 1: game that has a clock.

1480
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:36,639
Speaker 2: That's sort of the.

1481
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,600
Speaker 1: Beauty of the game. And as I sat down with

1482
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 1: this Dodger game, went to get some knee and I

1483
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 1: looked up and suddenly it's the fourth inning.

1484
01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:45,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, Wow, this game is moving.

1485
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:51,880
Speaker 1: And when you think about Major League Baseball and theo Epstein, who,

1486
01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:53,960
Speaker 1: of course I first got to know when he was

1487
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:57,160
Speaker 1: with the Padres organization as sort of a young guy

1488
01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,759
Speaker 1: on the rise under Larry Lukino. And then when Lukeino

1489
01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:01,840
Speaker 1: went to the Red Sox, he made theoep Sein a

1490
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:04,439
Speaker 1: his general manager. They went a World Series for the

1491
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 1: first time in eighty four years, and he goes to

1492
01:14:06,160 --> 01:14:07,920
Speaker 1: the Cubs, they went a World Series for over.

1493
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:10,479
Speaker 2: One hundred years, first time in over one hundred years.

1494
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 1: And it was his analytics that really brought baseball to

1495
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:18,719
Speaker 1: a different level, and not necessarily a more entertaining level.

1496
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,040
Speaker 1: And now working with Major League Baseball, the best idea

1497
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:26,120
Speaker 1: of undoing the mess that he essentially created. Let's bring

1498
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:28,599
Speaker 1: in the guy that understands it. And all these moves,

1499
01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: at least for me, are working. The idea of the

1500
01:14:31,400 --> 01:14:34,799
Speaker 1: pitch clock is working. Limiting the throws to first base

1501
01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:38,520
Speaker 1: is working. We're seeing more stolen bases than ever. The

1502
01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 1: abolition of the shift is working. We're seeing more offensive baseball.

1503
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:46,000
Speaker 1: It's all working, and well, I get your thought on that,

1504
01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,160
Speaker 1: but I also want to bring up now maybe the

1505
01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 1: NBA and I'll look at I'll admit I think the

1506
01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:53,160
Speaker 1: playoffs have been pretty entertaining so far in the NBA,

1507
01:14:53,720 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 1: but the regular season is not. I think the NBA

1508
01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,080
Speaker 1: needs to take a hard look at the game they're playing,

1509
01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:01,839
Speaker 1: and maybe he's take a hint from Major League Baseball

1510
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:07,280
Speaker 1: that some drastic changes can actually work for your sport.

1511
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,320
Speaker 3: A couple things with baseball quick before the basketball thing.

1512
01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,160
Speaker 3: I've not been to a game yet under the new rules.

1513
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 3: Last year, a Triple A game in Charlotte. They had

1514
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,240
Speaker 3: some of the pitchclock stuff or the implement in the

1515
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:24,040
Speaker 3: minor leagues. And with your young kids, sometimes the game's

1516
01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:26,960
Speaker 3: going faster. It's good. I like it. But I will

1517
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 3: say that I think the pitch clock is and kind

1518
01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:33,000
Speaker 3: of the speed of the game, speeding things up is

1519
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 3: better suited for the TV on its than the audience

1520
01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 3: in person, right, because I think when you go to

1521
01:15:37,439 --> 01:15:39,200
Speaker 3: a baseball game, I've never been to a baseball game.

1522
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:41,559
Speaker 3: I thought to myself, Man, I'm here too long, right,

1523
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 3: Like if you were in a baseball game, you you

1524
01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:46,720
Speaker 3: blocked your day out to a baseball game, right. So,

1525
01:15:47,360 --> 01:15:50,360
Speaker 3: but I think on television and I watch a ton

1526
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:52,840
Speaker 3: of baseball, so unfortunately my team is just it's just

1527
01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:56,559
Speaker 3: painfully boring this year in the Giants, your padres are

1528
01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,160
Speaker 3: way more exciting to watch. Like the game being over

1529
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:02,360
Speaker 3: two hours and twelve minutes is great, Right, it's someone

1530
01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 3: sitting at home watching baseball. But I can understand being

1531
01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:07,200
Speaker 3: at the game thinking, yeah, it's kind of going pretty fast.

1532
01:16:07,479 --> 01:16:11,280
Speaker 3: I get I get that thought. For the NBA, the

1533
01:16:11,400 --> 01:16:15,759
Speaker 3: NBA postseason is a completely different sport than the regular season. Yeah,

1534
01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:18,840
Speaker 3: there's almost no reason to watch the regular season we

1535
01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:21,760
Speaker 3: had this year alone right now. The Lakers are a

1536
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,200
Speaker 3: little bit different because of the trade of Westbrook and

1537
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:25,920
Speaker 3: kind of the town they brought on, also the health

1538
01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,000
Speaker 3: of Lebron and Anthony Davis. But there are seven seed

1539
01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:31,280
Speaker 3: just beat a two seed pretty handily, right in a

1540
01:16:31,320 --> 01:16:35,080
Speaker 3: six game series. The Miami Heat, an eight seed, beat

1541
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:38,840
Speaker 3: a one seed right, Like the red season is didn't

1542
01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:41,720
Speaker 3: feel important at all. It's just getting to the postseason

1543
01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:44,280
Speaker 3: and figuring out once you get there. And I don't

1544
01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 3: think the the idea of a mid season tournament. Who cares? Like?

1545
01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 1: Who?

1546
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:52,800
Speaker 3: How's that me? As a fan? And again, I've liked

1547
01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 3: I watch more baseball than basketball, to be fair, But

1548
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,200
Speaker 3: as a fan, why would I'm a Lakers fan. Why

1549
01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 3: do I care if they win the post seed season tournament? Like, well,

1550
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 3: I don't care about now a lot of fan bases

1551
01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 3: who cares about a midseason tournament? I want to win.

1552
01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:09,439
Speaker 3: I want to win the postseason tournament. So I don't

1553
01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 3: know how that helps anyone. Some of these new rule changes.

1554
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:16,479
Speaker 3: I get they're doing something with the cap to make

1555
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:17,880
Speaker 3: it so where you kind of have to keep a

1556
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:20,040
Speaker 3: team together and you can't really go over a certain number,

1557
01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 3: and it's the penalty is so large that we might

1558
01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:24,559
Speaker 3: not see super team so much. And those things might

1559
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:26,800
Speaker 3: be good for the sport, would argument, and probably good

1560
01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:30,040
Speaker 3: for the sport, But the idea of like of like yeah, yeah,

1561
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,320
Speaker 3: oh yeah, Midsey's and tournament, that's really gonna get me

1562
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:33,360
Speaker 3: going to watch a sport that.

1563
01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:35,000
Speaker 2: No, it's not, Come on, no, it's not.

1564
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:37,320

01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,360
Speaker 1: Code Draft. Yeah, it's not as easy as just. I mean,

1570
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:59,040
Speaker 1: look at the proliferation of three point shots. Uh really

1571
01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,680
Speaker 1: started with this success of the Golden State Warriors. The

1572
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:04,160
Speaker 1: problem for all these teams is they don't have Steph

1573
01:18:04,240 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 1: curR and Klay Thompson shooting threes, and so we've seen

1574
01:18:08,040 --> 01:18:10,080
Speaker 1: a complete change in terms of just the.

1575
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:11,000
Speaker 2: Dynamic of the game.

1576
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,120
Speaker 1: And honest, I don't know how he can change that.

1577
01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how you can change the game. A

1578
01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:17,760
Speaker 1: couple of changes I would make. I would incorporate what

1579
01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:21,040
Speaker 1: they do in college, and that is the one plus one,

1580
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:24,840
Speaker 1: the idea of the penalty. You'd make one free throw

1581
01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:26,639
Speaker 1: to get a second free throw. I think it would

1582
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,200
Speaker 1: add a little drama at the end of some of

1583
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 1: these NBA games. I'm actually also a fan of the

1584
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,160
Speaker 1: elimination of quarters. To be honest with you, I love

1585
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,760
Speaker 1: the fact that college basketball has two has It's the

1586
01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:41,840
Speaker 1: only level of basketball men or women that only has

1587
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:45,439
Speaker 1: two halves. And I sort of dig it. I mean,

1588
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,639
Speaker 1: the idea of trying to navigate a twenty minute period

1589
01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 1: instead of two to twelve minute periods, whatever it might be.

1590
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,639
Speaker 1: How about shortening the games from forty eight to forty minutes.

1591
01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:57,240
Speaker 1: I mean if you're talking about load management, maybe that

1592
01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:00,040
Speaker 1: would be another a way to keep guys on the

1593
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,000
Speaker 1: core for the majority of the games instead of sitting out.

1594
01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,240
Speaker 1: But to me, Major League Baseball I think made the

1595
01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:09,760
Speaker 1: right moves to make their game better and I think

1596
01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 1: it definitely helps as far as television is concerned, like

1597
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,680
Speaker 1: you said, even more so at the park. But I

1598
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,599
Speaker 1: think the NBA needs to take a long look. As

1599
01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:21,400
Speaker 1: you just said, it's unwatchable the regular season. The only

1600
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:24,960
Speaker 1: reason to watch is Ernie, Shack, Kenny and Charles. I mean,

1601
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:28,360
Speaker 1: what else am I watching regular season NBA basketball? So

1602
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: I don't know what the answers are, but there's a

1603
01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 1: problem and it needs to be addressed.

1604
01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:39,759
Speaker 3: But Steve, the players have to acknowledge as a problem too. Yeah,

1605
01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:42,160
Speaker 3: Like the players have to say, like we need to

1606
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:45,400
Speaker 3: speed the game up, like I think baseball players wanted this,

1607
01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:48,960
Speaker 3: like they wanted the games to go faster. So you

1608
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 3: have to the NBA players have to want the regular

1609
01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 3: season to change to make.

1610
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 1: It happen well, and it has to obviously be an

1611
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,639
Speaker 1: agreement on both sides. It will be interesting. Sure, look

1612
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 1: it they're not gonna say anything during the playoffs. And

1613
01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:06,240
Speaker 1: like I said, I've been entertained by these NBA playoffs

1614
01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:09,120
Speaker 1: so far, and I'm really looking forward to this semi

1615
01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:13,000
Speaker 1: final rounds. I think there's some tremendous matchups starting tonight

1616
01:20:13,080 --> 01:20:15,240
Speaker 1: to see. You know, Phoenix can do a number on

1617
01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:18,240
Speaker 1: the Nuggets. But I just think that they're going to

1618
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:20,799
Speaker 1: have to figure this out. And I guarantee behind the scenes,

1619
01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:24,040
Speaker 1: owners are complaining because you got to sell tickets, and

1620
01:20:24,080 --> 01:20:25,920
Speaker 1: if you're not giving them the right product, people are

1621
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,960
Speaker 1: not buying. The NFL Draft is almost over. Winners and

1622

1633
01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 1: at this point, you would just dismiss the rest of

1634
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:11,200
Speaker 1: this draft, this final seventh round here, and that all

1635
01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:13,800
Speaker 1: changed with Rock Purdy being the last player selected a

1636
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:14,320
Speaker 1: year ago.

1637
01:21:14,439 --> 01:21:16,400
Speaker 2: The next thing you know, no, well.

1638
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:20,320
Speaker 1: The guy was the starting quarterback in the NFC Championship game.

1639
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:23,000
Speaker 1: I'm glad you jumped in on me on this one,

1640
01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: all right, the San Francisco forty nine Ers, I think

1641
01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:31,840
Speaker 1: you will concede this if you remove quarterback from the equation.

1642
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:36,920
Speaker 1: There's not a more talented roster. There may be, there

1643
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:40,840
Speaker 1: are equal, but there is not a more talented roster

1644
01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:44,360
Speaker 1: than the forty nine ers. Impact players on both sides

1645
01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 1: of the football, multiple impact players on both sides of

1646
01:21:47,120 --> 01:21:50,280
Speaker 1: the football. That being said, the forty nine ers seem

1647
01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:55,320
Speaker 1: extremely comfortable with the idea that Rock Party or Sam

1648
01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:59,639
Speaker 1: Darnold or Trey Lance is more than sufficient to get

1649
01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:01,680
Speaker 1: them to where they desired to be, and that is

1650
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:06,360
Speaker 1: to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. Are they dreaming? Do they

1651
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:09,400
Speaker 1: need to address that quarterback situation? Are you sold at

1652
01:22:09,400 --> 01:22:13,000
Speaker 1: Brock Party? When he comes back from his injury, is

1653
01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:14,880
Speaker 1: going to be the kind of guy that we saw

1654
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:17,479
Speaker 1: at the end of last year, a weekend and week out,

1655
01:22:17,720 --> 01:22:22,080
Speaker 1: amazingly efficient. What do you think that's happening in San Francisco.

1656
01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:28,559
Speaker 3: So I don't recall, and you obviously have a longer

1657
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:32,280
Speaker 3: memory than me when it comes to football. A team

1658
01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:36,320
Speaker 3: that has been this good, that's a quarterback away. Look.

1659
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:40,519
Speaker 3: I think if you give them twelve other options, quarterback options,

1660
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:43,000
Speaker 3: like if you put Cousins, Kirk Cousins, who most people

1661
01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:47,479
Speaker 3: think is like just a touch above average, right on

1662
01:22:47,520 --> 01:22:51,800
Speaker 3: this team, they're absolutely the favorite to win the NFC,

1663
01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:57,880
Speaker 3: like right now, right they just need a little bit

1664
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:02,000
Speaker 3: more at that position. Right some cases, I do not

1665
01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:04,320
Speaker 3: think brock Party will have the season he had last year.

1666
01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:06,800
Speaker 3: I think it's nearly impossible he has that season, Like

1667
01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 3: it's thirteen touchdowns, one interception to some absurd numbers. I

1668
01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:14,519
Speaker 3: think they're trying to find an answer someone else. They

1669
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:17,080
Speaker 3: don't have anyone else. This is what happens when you

1670
01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:20,519
Speaker 3: miss on your top quarterback in Trey Lance, when you

1671
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,080
Speaker 3: trade up to get a quarterback and he's not your guy.

1672
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:25,960
Speaker 3: This is what you're left with. And you're lucky that

1673
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:29,920
Speaker 3: brock Party is this good for a seventh round draft pick.

1674
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:34,280
Speaker 3: You're thinking your lucky stars that he's this good, because

1675
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,439
Speaker 3: otherwise you'd be in an even worse situation than you're

1676
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,280
Speaker 3: in now. But what are they going to do? There

1677
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:42,599
Speaker 3: were rumors of Lamar Jackson, very Aaron Rodgers. You don't

1678
01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:45,400
Speaker 3: have the capital to do that, so you're stuck. You

1679
01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:47,800
Speaker 3: have to hope that Brock party does everything well. But again,

1680
01:23:49,360 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 3: you have to everything has to align for Brock Party

1681
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,800
Speaker 3: to go to Philly and win, right, Like you're just

1682
01:23:55,840 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 3: not often does the lesser quarterback win those games?

1683
01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:00,280
Speaker 1: Right?

1684
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 2: But let's build in.

1685
01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:04,919
Speaker 1: Okay, they didn't just pick up Sam Donald by accident.

1686
01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 1: You know how this all works. It's obvious that the

1687
01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: Lynch and you know, Shanahan were very high on Sam

1688
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:15,479
Speaker 1: Donald coming out of the draft, and obviously it didn't

1689
01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:18,000
Speaker 1: work with the Jets, didn't work in Carolina, but he's

1690
01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:21,920
Speaker 1: still an extremely young quarterback and we've seen some great

1691
01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:26,040
Speaker 1: resurrections over the years. I mean the Raiders when I

1692
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,280
Speaker 1: joined him, had a guy named Jim Plunkett who was

1693
01:24:28,320 --> 01:24:31,320
Speaker 1: the number one overall pick and completely forgotten. In fact,

1694
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:33,639
Speaker 1: the Raiders picked him up as a free agent after

1695
01:24:33,640 --> 01:24:36,000
Speaker 1: he got released by the forty nine ers, and he

1696
01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:38,520
Speaker 1: just sat, he didn't play a single.

1697
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:40,759
Speaker 2: Game, and two years later he's winning a Super Bowl.

1698
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 1: Are we missing how did Sam Donald come from just

1699
01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:47,799
Speaker 1: a few years ago? You know it was Baker Mayfield

1700
01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: or Sam Donald who used to be the number one

1701
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:54,479
Speaker 1: pick in that draft to a complete nobody. Sam, Were

1702
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:56,479
Speaker 1: you sold on Sam Donald out of the USC.

1703
01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:02,880
Speaker 3: He's also like twenty five, that's my point. Super young,

1704
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:06,320
Speaker 3: he's super young. I mean the idea that Kyle Shannahan.

1705
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:10,280
Speaker 1: Ye, so Kyle Shanahan believes he's younger than some of

1706
01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:11,479
Speaker 1: the guys that have been in this league.

1707
01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:11,680
Speaker 3: You know.

1708
01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 1: Anyway, Kyle Shannan is a big believer in Kyle Shanahan, right.

1709
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,040
Speaker 1: His whole idea what Brock Purty is it proves I

1710
01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:21,519
Speaker 1: can put anybody in that position with my offense, they're

1711
01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:24,479
Speaker 1: going to be successful. But Sam Donald has got more

1712
01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:27,000
Speaker 1: physical tools than Brock Party.

1713
01:25:27,960 --> 01:25:30,680
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, And I am with you there. I mean, look,

1714
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:32,840
Speaker 3: you look at at Trey Lance, who's who coming off

1715
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:35,600
Speaker 3: an injury, who I just don't think they believe in, right,

1716
01:25:35,720 --> 01:25:38,200
Speaker 3: And you look at at Brock Purtty coming off an injury,

1717
01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:40,760
Speaker 3: and Sam Donald's the healthiest one. Sam Donald probably gonna

1718
01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:43,280
Speaker 3: get reps and OTAs first at the moment, right sure,

1719
01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:45,040
Speaker 3: And I absolutely think he could be a starter. But

1720
01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:49,000
Speaker 3: I just and we've seen you know, Ryan Tannehill, you

1721
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:52,960
Speaker 3: mentioned Alex Smith. We've seen players resurrect careers on second teams, right,

1722
01:25:53,040 --> 01:25:54,919
Speaker 3: And al Smith did some of that in San Francisco

1723
01:25:54,960 --> 01:26:00,559
Speaker 3: before he went to Kansas City. We we just haven't

1724
01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:03,679
Speaker 3: seen it like happen to winning Super Bowls set often, right,

1725
01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:06,439
Speaker 3: So that that really I mean Drew Brees, I guess

1726
01:26:06,520 --> 01:26:09,840
Speaker 3: in essence, do you resurrect his career? He just he

1727
01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:11,800
Speaker 3: was good in San Diego, right, He.

1728
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 1: Was good in San Diego, he made a Pro Bowl,

1729
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:15,439
Speaker 1: and then he got hurt the following year.

1730
01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:19,960
Speaker 3: So the second, third, fourth team thing you you typically

1731
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:22,280
Speaker 3: aren't winning championship. That's what the Niners want. It's so

1732
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:25,240
Speaker 3: they had the roster they have is to win the championship.

1733
01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:27,680
Speaker 3: And you have to look at the quarterbacks they have

1734
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:29,559
Speaker 3: and you have to think about this and the NFC

1735
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:33,240
Speaker 3: it doesn't have great quarterbacks, right. But is Sam Darnold

1736
01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:36,839
Speaker 3: taking a Niners team on the road to beat the Eagles?

1737
01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:40,559
Speaker 1: Well, I think and you mentioned the Eagles, and I'm

1738
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:43,320
Speaker 1: glad you mentioned the Eagles right now. First of all,

1739
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:45,680
Speaker 1: this is one of the things I can't figure out

1740
01:26:45,680 --> 01:26:46,519
Speaker 1: about the NFL.

1741
01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:49,360
Speaker 2: The continued being namber.

1742
01:26:49,439 --> 01:26:52,519
Speaker 1: With the Dallas Cowboys, They're not even relative relative in

1743
01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:54,960
Speaker 1: their own division. I mean, if you look at since

1744
01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:58,800
Speaker 1: the Cowboys won their last Super Bowl, which by the way,

1745
01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:00,639
Speaker 1: is also the last year they even made the conference

1746
01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:03,679
Speaker 1: championship game, do you want to compare their track record

1747
01:27:03,760 --> 01:27:05,920
Speaker 1: to the Eagles over those years. I mean, it's not

1748
01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:08,880
Speaker 1: even close. The Eagles have been able to do it

1749
01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:12,840
Speaker 1: with multiple coaches. Let me ask you this, mister Chiefs fan,

1750
01:27:13,720 --> 01:27:16,599
Speaker 1: Now that the Eagles have added to their roster three

1751
01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:20,360
Speaker 1: more Georgia defensive players to the two they added a

1752
01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:24,439
Speaker 1: year ago on the draft, can you concede the fact

1753
01:27:24,560 --> 01:27:28,559
Speaker 1: right now that the Eagles on paper are better than

1754
01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:29,160
Speaker 1: the Chiefs.

1755
01:27:29,960 --> 01:27:31,719
Speaker 3: I thought they were on paper better than the Chiefs

1756
01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:33,880
Speaker 3: hanging the Super Bowl too. Yeah, look, I don't know.

1757
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:36,160
Speaker 3: I don't think that changes.

1758
01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:39,080
Speaker 1: Well, how much of an impact does Jalen Carter make

1759
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,519
Speaker 1: on that defense or even adding Nolan Smith.

1760
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:45,120
Speaker 3: Well, the Nolan Smith thing is is more of just

1761
01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 3: like you know, this is probably Brandon Graham's last year

1762
01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:50,599
Speaker 3: there and so having him maybe sit kind of learn

1763
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:55,160
Speaker 3: behind Brandon Graham is a huge value. But Jalen Carter

1764
01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:57,800
Speaker 3: helps them with the run defense, which was which was

1765
01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:00,000
Speaker 3: a trouble last year. We know they could rush the pace,

1766
01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:03,960
Speaker 3: but they got mauled in in the run defense, and

1767
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:06,240
Speaker 3: that kind of fixes that problem. That Jalen Carter thing

1768
01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:11,400
Speaker 3: is pretty interesting because people said the Jordan Davis, who's

1769
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:14,559
Speaker 3: who's was his teammate at Georgia and now with the Eagles,

1770
01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:19,120
Speaker 3: was was a very calming influence in Jalen Carter's life,

1771
01:28:19,479 --> 01:28:21,719
Speaker 3: that he was a good role model for Jalen Carter

1772
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:24,599
Speaker 3: and that you know, he kind of helped him out

1773
01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 3: win at Georgia and when he left, you know, the

1774
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 3: Jalen Carter's attention to detail wasn't as good and you

1775
01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,799
Speaker 3: know he just did you know that that his focus

1776
01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:36,360
Speaker 3: wasn't as great. And I think pairing him back with

1777
01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 3: Jordan Davis who's on the Eagles, will get the most

1778
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,920
Speaker 3: out of Jalen Carter. And that's a good job by

1779
01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:45,720
Speaker 3: the Eagles in my opinion, of knowing their personnel right

1780
01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:48,080
Speaker 3: and knowing who they're drafting and knowing kind of backstory

1781
01:28:48,120 --> 01:28:52,840
Speaker 3: between those players. So Jalen Carter's gonna help him stop

1782
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:56,160
Speaker 3: the run basically in year one, I think as he

1783
01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:58,439
Speaker 3: learns to rush the passer a little bit better than

1784
01:28:58,479 --> 01:29:01,680
Speaker 3: just brute forcing his way through, which we did in

1785
01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:05,519
Speaker 3: college football. But dude, he is so good. I think

1786
01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:07,439
Speaker 3: he's he's gonna be really good in the NFL. And

1787
01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:10,679
Speaker 3: it makes them again. It makes it to where Jalen

1788
01:29:10,720 --> 01:29:12,320
Speaker 3: Hurts doesn't have to do everything for the team, right,

1789
01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:14,800
Speaker 3: Like there's a lot of times where Kansas City Mahomes

1790
01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:16,920
Speaker 3: has to do a little bit more. The Jalen Hurts

1791
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,439
Speaker 3: will do will do for Philly, and Philly is with

1792
01:29:19,439 --> 01:29:22,280
Speaker 3: the running backs they've done. They just traded for DeAndre Swift.

1793
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:24,800
Speaker 3: Like their offensive line is good, the defensive line is good.

1794
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:28,320
Speaker 3: They're going to be a problem as long as they

1795
01:29:28,360 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 3: continue to build the roster the way they're doing it.

1796
01:29:30,320 --> 01:29:32,920
Speaker 1: And when we talk about how competitive the AFC is

1797
01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:35,640
Speaker 1: right now with the Chiefs and the Bills and the Bengals,

1798
01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:38,200
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of impact Aaron Rodgers is

1799
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 1: going to have with the Jets. And then you got

1800
01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:44,240
Speaker 1: the NFC, and we talked about the forty nine ers, right,

1801
01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 1: the Eagles forty nine ers. But the difference between Jalen

1802
01:29:47,479 --> 01:29:51,479
Speaker 1: Hurts and Brock Party is night and day. And after

1803
01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:57,120
Speaker 1: that Where are you going next in the NFC? I mean,

1804
01:29:57,439 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 1: where are you going with that? Who's the number three

1805
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:01,519
Speaker 1: even in the a NFC right now?

1806
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:04,280
Speaker 3: So number one you say, Philly, number two or forty

1807
01:30:04,360 --> 01:30:07,800
Speaker 3: nine ers? Yes, I mean number three is the Cowboys?

1808
01:30:08,439 --> 01:30:10,519
Speaker 3: Are they? Yeah? They have to be. It doesn't mean

1809
01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:12,519
Speaker 3: they're gonna do the third. I mean doesn't mean they're

1810
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:14,720
Speaker 3: gonna be you know, the third best. They were good

1811
01:30:14,760 --> 01:30:17,599
Speaker 3: last year. It has to do the Cowboys. I'm with

1812
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:19,559
Speaker 3: you on the hype every year I get sucked into

1813
01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:23,480
Speaker 3: it too. Yeah, they're very talented. It's god be the Cowboys.

1814
01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:29,400
Speaker 3: You know. You know, if Justin Field is better this year,

1815
01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:31,280
Speaker 3: you could maybe look at the at the Bears roster's

1816
01:30:31,320 --> 01:30:32,400
Speaker 3: just not just not there.

1817
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:34,120
Speaker 2: Whoa, You're gonna go from worse to.

1818
01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,400
Speaker 3: No no, no no, I'm just saying, like.

1819
01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:37,600
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this.

1820
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 2: Do you think the Bears if Fields.

1821
01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:45,720
Speaker 1: Makes it a big improvement, could the Bears go from

1822
01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:47,080
Speaker 1: worse to first in that division?

1823
01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:52,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you got the Lions? Who Lions?

1824
01:30:52,120 --> 01:30:54,559
Speaker 1: To me? I guess is Golf going to repeat what

1825
01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:56,240
Speaker 1: he did? I like the fact that he took a

1826
01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:57,040
Speaker 1: quarterback and.

1827
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:58,960
Speaker 3: They but Hooker might not be able to play most

1828
01:30:59,000 --> 01:30:59,320
Speaker 3: of the year.

1829
01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:02,080
Speaker 1: Correct, And I like Hooker a lot, you know, I

1830
01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:03,439
Speaker 1: know he's a little bit older. By the way, I

1831
01:31:03,439 --> 01:31:05,000
Speaker 1: think he's the same age as Sam Darnold.

1832
01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:06,760
Speaker 3: I think he is.

1833
01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:11,080
Speaker 1: Uh, but I mean, and you look at Minnesota and

1834
01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:13,639
Speaker 1: then obviously Green Bay with Jordan Love.

1835
01:31:14,120 --> 01:31:16,080
Speaker 3: I think the pack Look, I'll tell you what if

1836
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:20,719
Speaker 3: Jordan Love is just a little above average, the Packers

1837
01:31:20,720 --> 01:31:22,519
Speaker 3: with a division, the Packers took a lot of talent

1838
01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 3: on their team, and they do believe in Jordan Love.

1839
01:31:25,320 --> 01:31:27,360
Speaker 3: They do believe that he's good. I don't believe he's

1840
01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:30,439
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, but they believe he's good. But yeah, there's

1841
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:32,640
Speaker 3: not in the NFC. There's not a lot on the

1842
01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:34,680
Speaker 3: Seattle is going to be I think Gino Smith is

1843
01:31:34,680 --> 01:31:36,200
Speaker 3: going to be like he was the basically the back

1844
01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:37,800
Speaker 3: half of the year, not the first half of the year.

1845
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,679
Speaker 3: So just kind of okay. Arizona is in full tank mode.

1846
01:31:41,680 --> 01:31:43,840
Speaker 3: They have I think I saw they have thirteen or

1847
01:31:43,880 --> 01:31:46,080
Speaker 3: fourteen draft picks for next season like that. They're in

1848
01:31:46,439 --> 01:31:50,559
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams mode immediately, yes, and they're like they're gonna

1849
01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:52,400
Speaker 3: get out that Colin Murray deal as soon as possible

1850
01:31:53,120 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 3: as soon as as a humanly can. And you know,

1851
01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:58,160
Speaker 3: so there there are. That's the other rams I think,

1852
01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:02,880
Speaker 3: just talent wise. Again, so it's a very top heavy team. Right.

1853
01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:05,320
Speaker 3: If everyone says healthy, they can be really good. But

1854
01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:07,800
Speaker 3: you add a couple injuries here and there, just not

1855
01:32:07,920 --> 01:32:08,320
Speaker 3: having it.

1856
01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:10,400
Speaker 2: Their offensive lines still.

1857
01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, they drafted at least a one lineman class were

1858
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,719
Speaker 3: just good. Look, the Giants are there obviously in the East.

1859
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:19,439
Speaker 2: I mean, this is me.

1860
01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:21,640
Speaker 1: I mean if I'm thinking in terms of where the

1861
01:32:21,680 --> 01:32:26,280
Speaker 1: AFC is right now, Sorry much, I mean yeah, all right.

1862
01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:27,920
Speaker 1: On the other side, we're gonna get one more voice

1863
01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:29,960
Speaker 1: talking about the NFL and the draft this year, and

1864
01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:34,040
Speaker 1: that is our NFL insider here at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1: Fox Sports Saturday. We are live from the tai iraq

1867
01:32:42,680 --> 01:32:48,559
Speaker 1: dot Com studios. Max Duggan finally got picked. Unfortunately he's

1868
01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:50,759
Speaker 1: got He got picked by a team that obviously doesn't

1869
01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:51,560
Speaker 1: need a quarterback.

1870
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:52,840
Speaker 2: That would be the Chargers.

1871
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:56,120
Speaker 1: But the TCU quarterback does go off the board in

1872
01:32:56,240 --> 01:32:58,639
Speaker 1: the seventh round. We're down to the final few picks

1873
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:01,800
Speaker 1: of this twenty twenty three NFL Drafting or break it

1874
01:33:01,840 --> 01:33:04,280
Speaker 1: all down of what we've seen over the last three days.

1875
01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:08,240
Speaker 1: Our Fox Sports Radio NFL insider Adam Kaplan joins us

1876
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:10,880
Speaker 1: once again. All right, Adam, there's so many things to

1877
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:13,280
Speaker 1: talk about when I want to get one one out

1878
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:15,320
Speaker 1: of the way, and that's the Will Levis story. So

1879
01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:18,280
Speaker 1: even a week ago, there was all this talk that

1880
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:21,280
Speaker 1: Levis was shooting up the board. Everybody was just tripping

1881
01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:23,360
Speaker 1: over themselves to try to get Will Levis.

1882
01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:24,880
Speaker 2: Obviously that was not the case.

1883
01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:28,280
Speaker 1: Every single team had a shot to get Will Levis,

1884
01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 1: either at their existing draft position or moving up in

1885
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:31,599
Speaker 1: the draft.

1886
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:35,040
Speaker 2: There were plenty of trades. Nobody moved up for Will Levis.

1887
01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:35,919
Speaker 2: What happened?

1888
01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:36,559
Speaker 4: Why?

1889
01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:39,240
Speaker 1: How did it even get out there that suddenly Will

1890
01:33:39,320 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 1: Levis was the guy to get when it turned out

1891
01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:43,519
Speaker 1: he never was that guy.

1892
01:33:43,800 --> 01:33:46,759
Speaker 11: Yeah, so you know, I guess some kind of gambling

1893
01:33:47,360 --> 01:33:50,120
Speaker 11: social media account put some story about how Will Levis

1894
01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:52,680
Speaker 11: told I was told that the Panthers are going to

1895
01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,000
Speaker 11: draft him. So I actually contacted the Panthers. I'm doing

1896
01:33:55,040 --> 01:33:57,439
Speaker 11: I did TV this week for my friends at sports Grid,

1897
01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,640
Speaker 11: Say want to know what the truth was? And so

1898
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:02,200
Speaker 11: did another company I was working with, Profobale Networks. So

1899
01:34:02,200 --> 01:34:03,920
Speaker 11: I said, all right, I'll check into it. Panthers told

1900
01:34:03,960 --> 01:34:05,759
Speaker 11: me they're not calling anyone till the day of the draft,

1901
01:34:06,200 --> 01:34:09,400
Speaker 11: so I said, okay, thank you. So it's just it

1902
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:13,080
Speaker 11: was ridiculous. Here's what happened with Levis quarter in multiple sources.

1903
01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:17,040
Speaker 11: He had two injuries, a turf two injury on one foot.

1904
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:20,920
Speaker 11: He had a left shoulder injury.

1905
01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:21,439
Speaker 4: And he heard it twice.

1906
01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:23,720
Speaker 11: There were separated shoulders of the fact they had to

1907
01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:26,840
Speaker 11: pop the shoulder back at once, the left shoulder, I'm told,

1908
01:34:27,320 --> 01:34:29,560
Speaker 11: so that certainly hurt him. But the big thing that

1909
01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:31,360
Speaker 11: hurt him focus is the tape wasn't very good. You

1910
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:34,320
Speaker 11: can't make excuses in scouting. Oh let's just throw away

1911
01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:35,960
Speaker 11: the twenty two take because it wasn't very good and

1912
01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:37,080
Speaker 11: go to that great twenty one tape.

1913
01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,200
Speaker 4: It doesn't work that way, particularly at the quarterback position.

1914
01:34:40,800 --> 01:34:45,000
Speaker 3: It's being a quarterback position. I did believe the reports

1915
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:47,120
Speaker 3: that the Texans were not looking at quarterback at two.

1916
01:34:47,160 --> 01:34:49,519
Speaker 3: There were enough people that I trusted in the industry,

1917
01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:53,520
Speaker 3: guys that have been correct on other things before, and

1918
01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:55,560
Speaker 3: that said they weren't taking a quarterback at two and

1919
01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 3: then obviously oops they did. Did you believe the reports

1920
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:03,200
Speaker 3: that they were to go defensive end, because I don't

1921
01:35:03,200 --> 01:35:04,880
Speaker 3: think that they just decided on draft I have to

1922
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:05,519
Speaker 3: go quarterback.

1923
01:35:05,800 --> 01:35:08,320
Speaker 11: So I would say Jeff and my reporting, I and

1924
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,320
Speaker 11: others put out there that they probably would not draft

1925
01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:16,000
Speaker 11: quarterback or two would either be Will Anderson or Tyree Wilson.

1926
01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:18,960
Speaker 11: And then Wilson I'm told the problem was not the

1927
01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:21,519
Speaker 11: medical the problems. He didn't work out for teams before

1928
01:35:21,520 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 11: the draft. It's called an incomplete scouting report. It's hard

1929
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:27,320
Speaker 11: to pick a player in the first round and tell

1930
01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:29,000
Speaker 11: your owner, hey, he didn't work out for us, but

1931
01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:30,000
Speaker 11: we're still going to take them.

1932
01:35:30,320 --> 01:35:31,280
Speaker 4: So that's why they didn't.

1933
01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 11: But the fact that they got Will Anderson, I look,

1934
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:35,240
Speaker 11: I know they had to find a way to do this.

1935
01:35:35,880 --> 01:35:38,040
Speaker 11: It was very creative. They had a lot of draft capital.

1936
01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:40,479
Speaker 11: Now we could debate whether Will Anderson's worth a third

1937
01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:43,360
Speaker 11: pick overall. That's another discussion. But I got to tell

1938
01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:45,120
Speaker 11: you that was pretty interesting that Nick Cassario did. I

1939
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:47,640
Speaker 11: give him credit. I've been pretty critical of him for

1940
01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:50,160
Speaker 11: his massive mistake last year, and I said this before

1941
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:51,840
Speaker 11: the draft at sus Gardiner would wind up being the

1942
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:53,720
Speaker 11: best player of that draft, and so far he is

1943
01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:57,280
Speaker 11: taking a guy that had injury issues in college at

1944
01:35:57,320 --> 01:36:00,000
Speaker 11: Stingley who's talented. He also had injury issues last year.

1945
01:36:00,360 --> 01:36:02,559
Speaker 11: But I give Cassirio credit for finding a way to

1946
01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:03,040
Speaker 11: get this done.

1947
01:36:03,240 --> 01:36:05,760
Speaker 1: All right, speaking the best player in the draft, it's

1948
01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:08,360
Speaker 1: conceivable the Eagles got the best player in this draft

1949
01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:10,599
Speaker 1: and Jalen Carter, and then on top of that they

1950
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:13,240
Speaker 1: get Nolan Smith as well, who many had picked in

1951
01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:16,240
Speaker 1: the top fifteen, and he goes thirty. Obviously, you're very

1952
01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:18,880
Speaker 1: close to this Eagles organization, Adham, So what.

1953
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:20,040
Speaker 2: Is the reaction right now?

1954
01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:22,200
Speaker 1: Because you know Jeff and I are both of the

1955
01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:26,320
Speaker 1: same accord, and Jeff, as a chiefs guy, even conceded

1956
01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:28,439
Speaker 1: the Eagles probably had a better roster going into last

1957
01:36:28,479 --> 01:36:31,760
Speaker 1: year's Super Bowl. But what kind of impact will these

1958
01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:35,080
Speaker 1: new wave of Georgia defensive players have for this team?

1959
01:36:35,200 --> 01:36:39,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's crazy three of them Ringo as well and

1960
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:41,320
Speaker 11: then won last year. But look, when you look at

1961
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:43,320
Speaker 11: the Egal situation, they lost a lot of players in

1962
01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:45,760
Speaker 11: free agency, most of them they decided to walk away

1963
01:36:45,760 --> 01:36:48,040
Speaker 11: from a couple they didn't, but It's just they could

1964
01:36:48,080 --> 01:36:51,960
Speaker 11: not resign these players, so they moved on. The thing

1965
01:36:52,000 --> 01:36:53,800
Speaker 11: with Jalen Carter is they've known for a while that

1966
01:36:53,880 --> 01:36:54,880
Speaker 11: this is going to be their guy.

1967
01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:58,439
Speaker 4: He is a player.

1968
01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:00,240
Speaker 11: It's not just the one incident that we know of.

1969
01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:03,960
Speaker 11: It's some issues with his teammates coaches. I'm also told

1970
01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 11: also going back to high school, he had issues with

1971
01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:10,679
Speaker 11: his teammates. They had issues with him, and he needs

1972
01:37:10,720 --> 01:37:12,880
Speaker 11: to grow up a little bit. The thing about him is,

1973
01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:15,120
Speaker 11: though now this is a strong positive of the.

1974
01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:16,479
Speaker 4: Negative information we just talked about.

1975
01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:19,760
Speaker 11: As a football player on the field, you cannot really

1976
01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:22,960
Speaker 11: question his effort just phenomenal. Like you don't see him

1977
01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:24,760
Speaker 11: taking a play off. He just brings the energy and

1978
01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:27,160
Speaker 11: the passion for the job. But when he's not playing,

1979
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:29,960
Speaker 11: sometimes he doesn't always do the right thing. But the

1980
01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 11: Eagles of research him thoroughly. They went through NFL security,

1981
01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:35,800
Speaker 11: their own security department. They feel like they have an

1982
01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:38,599
Speaker 11: understanding of what this player brings to the table, what

1983
01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:40,920
Speaker 11: needs he has off the field, and they're going to

1984
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:41,599
Speaker 11: have to manage him.

1985
01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:45,599
Speaker 3: They know this. What are some other themes that they

1986
01:37:45,600 --> 01:37:47,200
Speaker 3: came out of the first round for you, I mean

1987
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:50,240
Speaker 3: one for me was like, we were told this would

1988
01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:52,320
Speaker 3: be a tight end heavy draft and it didn't end

1989
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:53,840
Speaker 3: up being a tight end heavy draft, but not in

1990
01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 3: the first round, right, and the one it went and

1991
01:37:56,479 --> 01:37:58,519
Speaker 3: being a guy who didn't work out had a back injury,

1992
01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:00,439
Speaker 3: which was kind of surprising me. Out of the first

1993
01:38:00,439 --> 01:38:03,920
Speaker 3: one drafted is the one you mentioned, Tyree Wilson drop

1994
01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:06,080
Speaker 3: because he didn't work out well, she can't worked out

1995
01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:08,479
Speaker 3: for nobody ever, he never ran, he didn't work out

1996
01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:09,559
Speaker 3: the entire offs yet.

1997
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:14,120
Speaker 11: Yeah, I would say, I would say, like the one

1998
01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:16,040
Speaker 11: that just floored me, and I talked to Lines about it,

1999
01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:18,360
Speaker 11: but I still, you know, I'll accept what they said.

2000
01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:21,360
Speaker 11: But I just first of all, to take a running

2001
01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:24,040
Speaker 11: back in the first round, it's highly questionable. But to

2002
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 11: take a what I call satellite back, a change up,

2003
01:38:26,520 --> 01:38:30,240
Speaker 11: explosive back, but not a three down back because Jamior

2004
01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:32,360
Speaker 11: gives no team sol as a three down back, and

2005
01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:34,280
Speaker 11: David Montgomery's going to be their lead back. They're paying

2006
01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:36,439
Speaker 11: him six million dollars to be that guy. So I

2007
01:38:36,439 --> 01:38:40,360
Speaker 11: thought that was highly questionable. Now I'm sure they made

2008
01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:43,200
Speaker 11: that trade out of six because the guy that they

2009
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:46,639
Speaker 11: want to right before, in Devin Weatherspoon, So I get that,

2010
01:38:47,200 --> 01:38:49,360
Speaker 11: and then to take an off the ball linebacker at eighteen.

2011
01:38:49,479 --> 01:38:51,000
Speaker 4: Jack Campbell's a terrific player.

2012
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:52,559
Speaker 11: By the way, I'm not criticizing him as a player,

2013
01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:54,920
Speaker 11: but what they need is pass rushers. They don't. I mean,

2014
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:58,040
Speaker 11: could they need it. They need an insign insign linebacker, yes,

2015
01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:01,160
Speaker 11: but that's it's a little questionable.

2016
01:39:01,160 --> 01:39:02,400
Speaker 4: I wasn't the only one who felt that way.

2017
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:04,600
Speaker 11: Good NFL got I spooke with said that, but the

2018
01:39:04,680 --> 01:39:06,519
Speaker 11: nice things are both very good football players. It's sound

2019
01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:08,639
Speaker 11: like they they didn't reach for guys who weren't good.

2020
01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:11,160
Speaker 11: It's just the value of the picks is queschable there.

2021
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:13,439
Speaker 2: We know that Jim Merse says crazy things.

2022
01:39:13,800 --> 01:39:15,760
Speaker 1: He was even throwing it out on Twitter after they

2023
01:39:15,800 --> 01:39:19,240
Speaker 1: took Anthony Richardson. What do you think Colts Fantasy? I

2024
01:39:19,280 --> 01:39:22,000
Speaker 1: think we should go after Will Levis. All right, so

2025
01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:24,719
Speaker 1: he's lost his mind, but I'm entertained by him alas

2026
01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:28,320
Speaker 1: he's a good guy. But with Anthony Richardson going forth

2027
01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:30,639
Speaker 1: overall and Nursey also said had they had the number

2028
01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:34,880
Speaker 1: one overall pick, they would have taken Anthony Richardson. But

2029
01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 1: second in company, how do you think they're going to

2030
01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:40,840
Speaker 1: approach the development of Anthony Richardson. How long is it

2031
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,639
Speaker 1: going to take before we realize whether this guy actually

2032
01:39:43,680 --> 01:39:46,720
Speaker 1: has the ability to be a franchise quarterback or this

2033
01:39:46,840 --> 01:39:48,759
Speaker 1: will go down as one of the biggest bus picks

2034
01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:50,400
Speaker 1: in the top five of the NFL draft.

2035
01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:52,479
Speaker 11: Oh, it's definitely boom and buff. So this is interesting

2036
01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:54,639
Speaker 11: to side so in my reporting on situation. First of all,

2037
01:39:54,680 --> 01:39:57,200
Speaker 11: Gardner Minshaw signed there, not that they were going to

2038
01:39:57,240 --> 01:39:58,720
Speaker 11: tell him, but he thought that that would have The

2039
01:39:59,040 --> 01:40:02,040
Speaker 11: Cults were probably the team that could give them the

2040
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:05,559
Speaker 11: best chance to get starts in this season. And if

2041
01:40:05,560 --> 01:40:08,040
Speaker 11: you fast forward now to what happened yesterday, I got

2042
01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:10,920
Speaker 11: to give Chris Ballard credit. This is Chris has been

2043
01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:13,400
Speaker 11: criticized I think rightfully so and though he hates the

2044
01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:16,360
Speaker 11: moniker of being conservative, this is anything but a conservative

2045
01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:17,479
Speaker 11: draft pick, there's no question.

2046
01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:19,880
Speaker 4: So then Steve, how's it going to be managed?

2047
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:23,719
Speaker 11: So they're going to be heavy RPO based offense that

2048
01:40:23,720 --> 01:40:26,280
Speaker 11: that that's to get him comfortable. This is the offense

2049
01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:28,080
Speaker 11: that they're going to run anyway, but they're going to

2050
01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:29,600
Speaker 11: do it even more so with this player. This is

2051
01:40:29,600 --> 01:40:32,439
Speaker 11: what Shane Stake and ran in Philly. It's based on

2052
01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:34,880
Speaker 11: kind of what they think they could do with him.

2053
01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:37,240
Speaker 11: This will make him comfortable. I mean, he can be

2054
01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:39,680
Speaker 11: a dropback passer because he's got a rocket arm. But

2055
01:40:39,920 --> 01:40:41,639
Speaker 11: this is Look, they shook it up, and I give

2056
01:40:41,680 --> 01:40:44,040
Speaker 11: them credit. Nobody knew this. They kept this thing quiet

2057
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:46,719
Speaker 11: because you saw all these mocks that had leves going there.

2058
01:40:47,120 --> 01:40:49,760
Speaker 11: But a funny thing was the funny thing was now,

2059
01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:52,599
Speaker 11: I don't know this. I have to ask them, what if?

2060
01:40:52,640 --> 01:40:55,559
Speaker 4: What if? What if so and traded up and took

2061
01:40:55,600 --> 01:40:58,800
Speaker 4: a quarterback at three? What they? What if they? What

2062
01:40:58,880 --> 01:41:00,560
Speaker 4: have they gone? With the cold? They traded out a

2063
01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:00,960
Speaker 4: number four?

2064
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:03,120
Speaker 11: I don't know that, but I'm just fascinated to see

2065
01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:04,720
Speaker 11: if Levis would have been the guy on the trade back.

2066
01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:06,760
Speaker 11: We won't know yet, but I'm going to ask them that.

2067
01:41:07,960 --> 01:41:09,800
Speaker 3: Going all the way back to the very top of

2068
01:41:09,800 --> 01:41:14,240
Speaker 3: the draft in Bryce Young, is there any trepidation at

2069
01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:17,760
Speaker 3: all with the Panthers that the Young would be an outlier?

2070
01:41:17,880 --> 01:41:21,120
Speaker 3: You know, with the size and the success rates of

2071
01:41:21,200 --> 01:41:24,759
Speaker 3: a quarterback, it's an outlier. If he were to succeed,

2072
01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:28,759
Speaker 3: he kind of breaks the mold for quarterbacks that size.

2073
01:41:28,840 --> 01:41:29,679
Speaker 3: Drafted that early.

2074
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:32,320
Speaker 11: So, jeff My understanding of the situation was, is Scott

2075
01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:34,479
Speaker 11: fitter or the GM of the Seahawks. Obvious, he's of

2076
01:41:34,479 --> 01:41:36,040
Speaker 11: the Panthers. He was with the Seahawks when they drafted

2077
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:40,360
Speaker 11: Russell Wilson. He kind of knew and knows that you

2078
01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:42,639
Speaker 11: could always build your body up. And Russell, most people

2079
01:41:42,640 --> 01:41:45,519
Speaker 11: see Russell now, is all built but at five ten

2080
01:41:45,560 --> 01:41:47,599
Speaker 11: and a half, and by the way, he's actually technically

2081
01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:49,000
Speaker 11: a quitter inch taller than Bryce Young.

2082
01:41:49,040 --> 01:41:50,799
Speaker 4: It doesn't look like that, but he is. Technically.

2083
01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:54,600
Speaker 11: Russell built his body up quite a bit over a

2084
01:41:54,640 --> 01:41:58,360
Speaker 11: series of years, and they think Bryce could could build it,

2085
01:41:58,479 --> 01:41:59,960
Speaker 11: build his body up. And by the way, they were

2086
01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:02,960
Speaker 11: not that they measured his body frame, but talking to

2087
01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:04,960
Speaker 11: a team source like they were right up next to him,

2088
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:06,960
Speaker 11: they were kind of pleasantly surprised at his protae that

2089
01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:08,920
Speaker 11: he was a little bigger than they thought. I can't

2090
01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:10,720
Speaker 11: say that convinced them. They were pretty much going to

2091
01:42:10,760 --> 01:42:13,000
Speaker 11: go that way. This is their thinking the whole time.

2092
01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:15,680
Speaker 11: But what they love is his ability to process the

2093
01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:19,160
Speaker 11: best processor they fought they thought of any quarterback, not

2094
01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:22,040
Speaker 11: only in this draft, in years, and he's going to

2095
01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:23,000
Speaker 11: be the franchise quarterback.

2096
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:24,080
Speaker 4: I thought they had by the way, I thought they

2097
01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:25,160
Speaker 4: had a very interesting draft.

2098
01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:26,920
Speaker 11: The kid Mingo they took as an absolute stud the

2099
01:42:26,920 --> 01:42:27,920
Speaker 11: receiver in the second round.

2100
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:30,080
Speaker 2: The test that CJ.

2101
01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:36,160
Speaker 1: Stroud failed miserably obviously had no impact on the text

2102
01:42:36,160 --> 01:42:39,880
Speaker 1: and taking him second overall. I had never even heard

2103
01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:41,879
Speaker 1: of this test. Obviously, I had heard about the wonderlack

2104
01:42:41,920 --> 01:42:44,439
Speaker 1: and everything else. This was something about reaction time and

2105
01:42:44,479 --> 01:42:48,080
Speaker 1: everything else. And his score was so bad that they

2106
01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:52,800
Speaker 1: just said he's gonna plummet? Are they just making up

2107
01:42:52,800 --> 01:42:55,639
Speaker 1: these tests at him as they go? I mean, Jeff

2108
01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:57,760
Speaker 1: and I again were talking about this early. I know

2109
01:42:57,800 --> 01:43:00,639
Speaker 1: what I saw him do against Georgia. I didn't see

2110
01:43:00,640 --> 01:43:02,639
Speaker 1: any test paper in front of him or anything else,

2111
01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:05,280
Speaker 1: but the idea that he can't react to he was.

2112
01:43:05,560 --> 01:43:08,880
Speaker 1: He did to that defense what no quarterback came close

2113
01:43:08,920 --> 01:43:12,320
Speaker 1: to doing to that defense. And I think the Texans

2114
01:43:12,320 --> 01:43:14,120
Speaker 1: got themselves a hell of a quarterback. But what does

2115
01:43:14,120 --> 01:43:17,960
Speaker 1: it say about this analysis over analysis, new tests they're

2116
01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:20,559
Speaker 1: creating all the time, and how valid they are in

2117
01:43:20,680 --> 01:43:23,960
Speaker 1: terms of what team's mindsets are going into the draft.

2118
01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:27,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's actually been out for between three and five years.

2119
01:43:27,160 --> 01:43:27,720
Speaker 4: S two's test.

2120
01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:30,160
Speaker 11: It's a cognitive test, so what what what happens is

2121
01:43:30,200 --> 01:43:34,320
Speaker 11: they take that, you take several factors including tape, and

2122
01:43:34,360 --> 01:43:36,680
Speaker 11: you see what happens on on throws and how these

2123
01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:39,839
Speaker 11: players react. But it's a small part of the process.

2124
01:43:40,200 --> 01:43:42,800
Speaker 11: The Panthers made it pretty clear that yeah, they used it,

2125
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:46,160
Speaker 11: but it's it's down the list, and other teams said

2126
01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:49,200
Speaker 11: the same thing to me, So it look, you're the

2127
01:43:49,280 --> 01:43:52,040
Speaker 11: thing is the wonder is just not working for the

2128
01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:53,240
Speaker 11: ability for quarterbacks.

2129
01:43:53,320 --> 01:43:53,479
Speaker 4: Now.

2130
01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:55,600
Speaker 11: I remember talking to Rick Spilm, the former of Vikings

2131
01:43:56,600 --> 01:43:59,280
Speaker 11: general manager, about this, that you could bring a guy

2132
01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:01,479
Speaker 11: up to the board, it could be brilliant, but that

2133
01:44:01,520 --> 01:44:03,559
Speaker 11: doesn't show you what happens when guys are coming at you,

2134
01:44:03,680 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 11: and there has to be another test and this is

2135
01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:08,880
Speaker 11: one of them. Of By the way, teams have their

2136
01:44:08,920 --> 01:44:10,519
Speaker 11: own tests for this. You should know that it's not

2137
01:44:10,560 --> 01:44:12,639
Speaker 11: just the S two. They have their own testing.

2138
01:44:13,600 --> 01:44:18,559
Speaker 3: Well, last question for me, very quickly, sorry, Lamar Jackson

2139
01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:20,599
Speaker 3: and the Ravens got their deal done and Adam felt

2140
01:44:20,600 --> 01:44:22,280
Speaker 3: like a lot of drama for what I think a

2141
01:44:22,320 --> 01:44:27,280
Speaker 3: lot of us felt was inevitable. There was no other option, right,

2142
01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:30,599
Speaker 3: like the Ravens wanted Lamar and no one else was calling,

2143
01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:31,439
Speaker 3: and just felt like this was.

2144
01:44:31,439 --> 01:44:34,120
Speaker 4: Going to happen, right, Yeah, and here's what happened, the

2145
01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:35,120
Speaker 4: Hurts deal.

2146
01:44:36,120 --> 01:44:38,680
Speaker 11: I hate to criticize Jalen Hurts and his agent, but

2147
01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:42,240
Speaker 11: it didn't help because he's now in a contract for

2148
01:44:42,280 --> 01:44:45,280
Speaker 11: six years, not five. It's one plus five he had

2149
01:44:45,280 --> 01:44:47,639
Speaker 11: when you're left plus of five new years. And look,

2150
01:44:47,680 --> 01:44:50,880
Speaker 11: the guaranteed signing isn't great, but the structure, the agent

2151
01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:52,760
Speaker 11: did a good job with the structure. So yeah, he

2152
01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:54,200
Speaker 11: didn't get a ton at signing, but he's going to

2153
01:44:54,240 --> 01:44:55,960
Speaker 11: get a lot rolling in over the next couple of years.

2154
01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:58,320
Speaker 11: There's no way they're cutting him. So there are different

2155
01:44:58,320 --> 01:45:01,960
Speaker 11: ways to get a deal done. What happens is here,

2156
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:05,400
Speaker 11: and I give Eric to Costa credit. They really wanted

2157
01:45:05,479 --> 01:45:08,040
Speaker 11: him in. Jeff, you know this as a player, when

2158
01:45:08,040 --> 01:45:11,000
Speaker 11: you're putting, when you're installing a brand new offense. Todd

2159
01:45:11,040 --> 01:45:13,439
Speaker 11: Makin's offense is completely different from the one that Greg

2160
01:45:13,479 --> 01:45:14,080
Speaker 11: Roban runs.

2161
01:45:14,120 --> 01:45:16,360
Speaker 4: You really need him in here, you do. He needs

2162
01:45:16,400 --> 01:45:17,080
Speaker 4: he needs to learn this.

2163
01:45:17,280 --> 01:45:19,400
Speaker 11: I think that's the part that someone told me that

2164
01:45:19,640 --> 01:45:21,360
Speaker 11: this is someone who works in the NFL said to me,

2165
01:45:21,640 --> 01:45:23,479
Speaker 11: He goes, why doesn't the media understand this like this

2166
01:45:23,520 --> 01:45:25,000
Speaker 11: is you don't want to report the cis for coaches.

2167
01:45:25,000 --> 01:45:26,240
Speaker 4: I said, all right, I'm going to use that. That's

2168
01:45:26,240 --> 01:45:27,120
Speaker 4: a good a good point.

2169
01:45:27,120 --> 01:45:29,840
Speaker 1: I agree, all right, and we'll call you in three

2170
01:45:29,920 --> 01:45:33,599
Speaker 1: years to evaluate the twenty twenty three drafts. Two years,

2171
01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:35,120
Speaker 1: all right, two years. He's going to give us a

2172
01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:37,360
Speaker 1: grade on the draft. Adam is always you're the best

2181
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:06,639
Speaker 1: What's going on?

2182
01:46:06,800 --> 01:46:08,800
Speaker 2: Huh? What is your NFL team?

2183
01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:09,040
Speaker 9: Nick?

2184
01:46:09,680 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 7: I grew up a forty nine Ers fan that was

2185
01:46:12,320 --> 01:46:15,519
Speaker 7: passed down to me. My grandfather had season tickets going

2186
01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:18,759
Speaker 7: back to Keyzar Stadium in the city and then Candlestick Park.

2187
01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:21,120
Speaker 1: So do you think that Brock Party eventually will have

2188
01:46:21,200 --> 01:46:24,040
Speaker 1: a bust in Canton. Oh.

2189
01:46:24,080 --> 01:46:27,200
Speaker 7: I don't know about a bust, but I think he

2190
01:46:27,680 --> 01:46:29,519
Speaker 7: showed he's pretty good. I mean, it's gonna be really

2191
01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:31,759
Speaker 7: hard to recreate what he did end of last season,

2192
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:34,320
Speaker 7: but I mean to do that to just kind of

2193
01:46:34,320 --> 01:46:36,599
Speaker 7: come in and pick up and lead that team.

2194
01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:39,559
Speaker 1: And I'm still bummed about that NFC title game. It's

2195
01:46:39,640 --> 01:46:40,280
Speaker 1: such a bummer.

2196
01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:43,719
Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, they wouldn't have beaten the Eagles.

2197
01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:47,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, the Eagles are really good. I'm not got

2198
01:46:47,040 --> 01:46:48,639
Speaker 1: to sit here and say they would have won the game.

2199
01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:48,920
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2200
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:51,280
Speaker 1: And the Eagles, boy, they're reloading.

2201
01:46:51,479 --> 01:46:55,479
Speaker 7: The Eagles are is to Georgia as the Chargers is

2202
01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:58,760
Speaker 7: to TCU. Apparently, that's what I've learned this weekend. Max

2203
01:46:58,840 --> 01:47:01,880
Speaker 7: Duggan finally rafted by the Chargers. Here in the seventh round.

2204
01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:04,680
Speaker 7: We've got about twelve picks left before the end of

2205
01:47:04,680 --> 01:47:07,439
Speaker 7: the draft. Other notable names going in the seventh round.

2206
01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:12,120
Speaker 7: The Ravens drafted USC offensive lineman Andrew Voorhe's he would

2207
01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:14,280
Speaker 7: have gone much earlier in the draft, but remember he

2208
01:47:14,320 --> 01:47:16,880
Speaker 7: tore his ACL at the combine. He still won the

2209
01:47:16,920 --> 01:47:20,040
Speaker 7: bench press a day later after tearing his acl He

2210
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:22,880
Speaker 7: will miss the start of the season, but could ultimately

2211
01:47:22,920 --> 01:47:25,400
Speaker 7: be a good get for the Ravens. Three punters have

2212
01:47:25,479 --> 01:47:28,720
Speaker 7: now been drafted as well. Rams took Ethan Evans out

2213
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:32,400
Speaker 7: of Division two Wingate University, which Jeff, I believe is

2214
01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:33,639
Speaker 7: in your neck of the woods.

2215
01:47:33,960 --> 01:47:37,360
Speaker 3: Yes, in South Carolina. Yeah, North Carolina, one of the two.

2216
01:47:37,439 --> 01:47:40,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's it's like South I look, yeah,

2217
01:47:40,080 --> 01:47:41,599
Speaker 7: it's just outside Charlotte there.

2218

Speaker 2: So we've had.

2219
01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:43,800
Speaker 3: Some runners wish.

2220
01:47:45,479 --> 01:47:48,760
Speaker 7: Today though, really about the quarterbacks guys, we had nine

2221
01:47:48,760 --> 01:47:50,920
Speaker 7: of them taken today, including dug In here in the

2222
01:47:50,960 --> 01:47:53,960

01:47:53,960 --> 01:47:56,080
Speaker 7: the end of the fourth and beginning of the fifth rounds.

Speaker 7: He had twelve overall taken through the first five rounds.

2225
01:47:59,600 --> 01:48:02,200
Speaker 7: That set up record. We've also had a record in

2226
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,600
Speaker 7: the number of trades. Last count I saw in the

2227
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:07,599
Speaker 7: last hour was forty one of them, but that number

2228
01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:10,960
Speaker 7: could be higher. Still having a tough time finding a

2229
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:13,680
Speaker 7: final number on that. We still got another ten or

2230
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:16,679
Speaker 7: so picks to go. But Georgia quarterback Stets and Bennet

2231

2266
01:49:55,920 --> 01:49:58,080
Speaker 1: final picks in. I don't know what's taken so long

2267
01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:00,840
Speaker 1: down the stretch here. Just get the names out there.

2268
01:50:00,840 --> 01:50:03,799
Speaker 1: Eventually we're going to get to mister Irrelevant, the reigning

2269
01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:07,200
Speaker 1: one Brock Party certainly made news in the NFL last

2270
01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:10,360
Speaker 1: year from your own draft experience, and you've had to

2271
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:13,559
Speaker 1: wait a long time for your name to be called. Uh,

2272
01:50:13,720 --> 01:50:16,120
Speaker 1: and still you went on to a very successful career

2273
01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:19,439
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. What's the process now for

2274
01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:23,080
Speaker 1: these guys? Take us through this whole thing. The draft

2275
01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:27,160
Speaker 1: is done, your name's been called by a team. What's next?

2276
01:50:27,600 --> 01:50:29,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think it's a little bit different now,

2277
01:50:29,600 --> 01:50:30,800
Speaker 3: but I can kind of give you the I think,

2278
01:50:30,840 --> 01:50:33,320
Speaker 3: what the kind of gist of it. You know. So,

2279
01:50:33,360 --> 01:50:36,479
Speaker 3: if you're a first round pick, you were immediately flown

2280
01:50:36,960 --> 01:50:39,280
Speaker 3: to the new city, and there's typically a press conference

2281
01:50:39,360 --> 01:50:42,360
Speaker 3: and you've by now if your your favorite team has

2282
01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:46,080
Speaker 3: posted the videos right right of your team. There even

2283
01:50:46,479 --> 01:50:48,479
Speaker 3: sometimes second or third round pack, especially their local I

2284
01:50:48,479 --> 01:50:51,760
Speaker 3: saw the Chargers they drafted some local players, you know,

2285
01:50:51,800 --> 01:50:55,439
Speaker 3: a couple of USC kids, UCLA kid, they were they

2286
01:50:55,479 --> 01:50:59,200
Speaker 3: took photos at the facility. But most often you're gonna

2287
01:50:59,479 --> 01:51:02,200
Speaker 3: fly in a timely manner to the facility at some

2288
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:05,360
Speaker 3: point when you start the Officerason program, and it's like

2289
01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:07,439
Speaker 3: any new job, you're gonna show up, You're gonna fill

2290
01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:10,440
Speaker 3: the paperwork out, you're gonna meet all your new employees,

2291
01:51:11,439 --> 01:51:13,600
Speaker 3: obviously your teammates. You're gonna get a tour of the

2292
01:51:13,600 --> 01:51:17,040
Speaker 3: facility and you're gonna just jump in and start working

2293
01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:19,240
Speaker 3: out and start going to team meetings. You know when

2294
01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:24,160
Speaker 3: when when I was drafted, we had mini camp right away.

2295
01:51:24,240 --> 01:51:26,800
Speaker 3: So I flew out that week I believe or the

2296
01:51:26,840 --> 01:51:30,080
Speaker 3: week after right to Charlotte and had mini camp right away.

2297
01:51:30,439 --> 01:51:32,320
Speaker 3: Uh that's the way we John Fox did things. This

2298
01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:35,880
Speaker 3: is when we had too mini camps and uh, you

2299
01:51:35,920 --> 01:51:38,519
Speaker 3: could have two and it would have would never work

2300
01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:40,080
Speaker 3: you any camp. We had a veteran mini camps. I

2301
01:51:40,080 --> 01:51:43,400
Speaker 3: showed right up first day with uh, with the veterans.

2302
01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:47,160
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's an odd feeling because you're you're drafted

2303
01:51:47,720 --> 01:51:49,439
Speaker 3: and then you just kind of look at home like

2304
01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:53,519
Speaker 3: you're not signing a contract right away. Those get done

2305
01:51:53,520 --> 01:51:55,240
Speaker 3: the next couple of days, next couple of weeks. They're

2306
01:51:55,280 --> 01:51:58,240
Speaker 3: all slotted now, so there's no we're negotiation. You're just

2307
01:51:58,280 --> 01:52:00,360
Speaker 3: getting what a little bit more than the the guy

2308
01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:03,040
Speaker 3: got last year in your same slot. Signed the contract

2309
01:52:03,080 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 3: and move it along. But it's pretty fun.

2310
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:05,360
Speaker 4: It's exciting.

2311
01:52:05,360 --> 01:52:07,720
Speaker 3: Man, like this happens once in your life if you're

2312
01:52:07,720 --> 01:52:09,680
Speaker 3: a player, right now, and so I hope all these

2313
01:52:09,680 --> 01:52:11,680
Speaker 3: players are soaking it in. No matter where, you get

2314
01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:16,559
Speaker 3: drafted very quickly. So my draft year was two thousand

2315
01:52:16,560 --> 01:52:19,360
Speaker 3: and eight, Steve, and I believe it's still the record.

2316
01:52:19,520 --> 01:52:22,679
Speaker 3: Ten offensive tackles were taken in the first two rounds

2317
01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:26,080
Speaker 3: of that year. Okay, and this was when the draft

2318
01:52:26,120 --> 01:52:28,040
Speaker 3: was two days. It was rounds one and two on

2319
01:52:28,080 --> 01:52:31,439
Speaker 3: the first day on Saturday, and then rounds three through

2320
01:52:31,520 --> 01:52:35,000
Speaker 3: seven on Sunday. And they always tell you, especially in

2321
01:52:35,040 --> 01:52:37,760
Speaker 3: my position as a lower round draft pick, do not

2322
01:52:37,840 --> 01:52:40,720
Speaker 3: watch the draft. Okay, it's don't do it. So I

2323
01:52:40,760 --> 01:52:41,160
Speaker 3: didn't watch.

2324
01:52:41,200 --> 01:52:41,640
Speaker 4: The first day.

2325
01:52:41,640 --> 01:52:43,240
Speaker 3: I went to a friend's baseball game. Actually he was

2326
01:52:43,240 --> 01:52:45,280
Speaker 3: at West La Junior College. I went and watched him

2327
01:52:45,280 --> 01:52:50,080
Speaker 3: play baseball. The next day, though, Sunday morning, I'm like, well,

2328
01:52:50,439 --> 01:52:52,439
Speaker 3: I sort of knew I was in the next wave

2329
01:52:52,479 --> 01:52:54,080
Speaker 3: of the tackles in my mind, and my agent's were

2330
01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:55,920
Speaker 3: on so like, you're gonna go fourth to sixth round,

2331
01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:58,280
Speaker 3: that's about where you're gonna go. Cool, but all these

2332
01:52:58,280 --> 01:53:01,200
Speaker 3: guys are taken. So I thought, man, I'm next, I'm

2333
01:53:01,280 --> 01:53:03,840
Speaker 3: third fourth round. I am next, And so I got

2334
01:53:03,920 --> 01:53:06,600
Speaker 3: up six am on the on the West Coast. I

2335
01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:08,760
Speaker 3: went into my We had two TVs at my parents' house.

2336
01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:10,240
Speaker 3: We had one in the family, one of my dad's

2337
01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:11,960
Speaker 3: office to kind of the guest room one of my

2338
01:53:12,000 --> 01:53:15,639
Speaker 3: dad's office by myself. Started watching a draft. Third round,

2339
01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:19,360
Speaker 3: my name is not called, fourth round. My phone's not

2340
01:53:19,400 --> 01:53:21,719
Speaker 3: even ringing, Like no one's even call you, and teams

2341
01:53:21,720 --> 01:53:25,040
Speaker 3: will call you to like and this started happened to

2342
01:53:25,040 --> 01:53:26,320
Speaker 3: me in the fifth round, like I had, the Panthers

2343
01:53:26,360 --> 01:53:28,200
Speaker 3: called me. He ended up drafting me the seventh round. Hey,

2344
01:53:28,320 --> 01:53:30,280
Speaker 3: it was an old line coach. Hey, it's you know,

2345
01:53:30,840 --> 01:53:33,760
Speaker 3: coach Magazue. Here, just wantle, you know, like we're we're

2346
01:53:33,800 --> 01:53:35,600
Speaker 3: thinking about drafting you right here. Just want to I

2347
01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:38,280
Speaker 3: really like you a lot. That's to kind of get

2348
01:53:38,320 --> 01:53:40,160
Speaker 3: you to think they like you enough to when you're

2349
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:42,720
Speaker 3: an undrafted free agent to remember, Hey, I called you,

2350
01:53:42,920 --> 01:53:44,640
Speaker 3: Remember I called you in the fifth round? I want you?

2351
01:53:45,840 --> 01:53:48,920
Speaker 3: And so fifth round, sixth round, finally the seventh round

2352
01:53:49,000 --> 01:53:52,320
Speaker 3: comes right and by this time, man, I've been pacing outside.

2353
01:53:52,720 --> 01:53:54,920
Speaker 3: I've turned the draft off. I put my phone away,

2354
01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:57,240
Speaker 3: like I've done I played basketball. It's out of my dad.

2355
01:53:57,400 --> 01:53:59,760
Speaker 3: I'm just like over the whole day I should never

2356
01:53:59,760 --> 01:54:04,120
Speaker 3: watch raft. I did it anyways, my mistake, and the

2357
01:54:04,160 --> 01:54:08,120
Speaker 3: Panthers called me. We'd actually canceled my draft, my draft

2358
01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:10,439
Speaker 3: like party at the local Mexican restaurant up the street,

2359
01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:13,639
Speaker 3: like we were like over over the whole day, And

2360
01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:16,840
Speaker 3: the Panthers called me. As actually was Brandon Bean, who

2361
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,599
Speaker 3: is now the general manager of the Bills. He was

2362
01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:21,519
Speaker 3: the guy who he was the kind of lower level

2363
01:54:21,560 --> 01:54:23,200
Speaker 3: with the Panthers. He was a guy that called the

2364
01:54:23,240 --> 01:54:25,760
Speaker 3: seventh round draft picks essentially at that point. And he

2365
01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:30,120
Speaker 3: called me and he said, are you excited to be drafted?

2366
01:54:30,280 --> 01:54:32,920
Speaker 3: There was something along those lines, and I said, true.

2367
01:54:33,040 --> 01:54:35,560
Speaker 3: I said, at this point, I don't even care, because

2368
01:54:35,600 --> 01:54:39,200
Speaker 3: I had also been talking to my agent about undrafted

2369
01:54:39,240 --> 01:54:41,640
Speaker 3: fragent homes and so I've been, you kind of like

2370
01:54:41,680 --> 01:54:43,440
Speaker 3: talking back and forth with him about where I might go,

2371
01:54:43,520 --> 01:54:45,400
Speaker 3: and like I was just over the day. And then

2372
01:54:45,440 --> 01:54:47,879
Speaker 3: of course he said, you've been drafted. I was super excited,

2373
01:54:48,320 --> 01:54:52,480
Speaker 3: but that's just not a typical draft day. But in

2374
01:54:52,480 --> 01:54:54,200
Speaker 3: the end I got drafted. It was super awesome. It

2375
01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:56,480
Speaker 3: was super cool, but it could be a long day

2376
01:54:56,520 --> 01:54:59,440
Speaker 3: if you are stupid about it and sent in front

2377
01:54:59,440 --> 01:54:59,960
Speaker 3: of the television.

2378
01:55:00,120 --> 01:55:01,840
Speaker 2: I am. I'm adding up.

2379
01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:06,040
Speaker 1: You were the twenty sixth offensive tackle taken in that draft.

2380
01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:07,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and by the way, you.

2381
01:55:07,480 --> 01:55:11,160
Speaker 1: Had a vastly superior career to most of the guys

2382
01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:13,600
Speaker 1: I know. I mean there was, like you said, there

2383
01:55:13,680 --> 01:55:16,400
Speaker 1: was a run on there was Wow, one, two, three,

2384
01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:22,000
Speaker 1: four or five solids in the Yeah. Crazy and what of.

2385
01:55:21,920 --> 01:55:25,720
Speaker 2: These guys were Wow? I mean this Yeah, this was

2386
01:55:26,360 --> 01:55:27,320
Speaker 2: pretty ugly out there.

2387
01:55:27,400 --> 01:55:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's it's going to be in an

2388
01:55:28,920 --> 01:55:32,080
Speaker 1: exciting time for these guys coming up. On the other side,

2389
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:35,000
Speaker 1: we're going to get our final thoughts on this NFL

Speaker 1: we're coming alive from the ti iraq dot com studios.

2424
01:57:21,040 --> 01:57:24,720
Speaker 1: We are down to the final two three picks of

2425
01:57:24,800 --> 01:57:25,240
Speaker 1: this draft.

2426
01:57:25,280 --> 01:57:27,120
Speaker 2: We got Denver, we got the Bears.

2427
01:57:26,760 --> 01:57:30,800
Speaker 1: And we got the Rams last few picks, so we're

2428
01:57:30,800 --> 01:57:32,560
Speaker 1: down to these final picks out there.

2429
01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:40,640
Speaker 3: Do they still do the Disneyland parade for thevant the Prede?

2430
01:57:40,640 --> 01:57:43,000
Speaker 3: That's your hometown, you know right?

2431
01:57:43,720 --> 01:57:46,280
Speaker 1: I mean again, Brock pretty success a year ago, just

2432
01:57:46,520 --> 01:57:49,600
Speaker 1: broke the mold on this whole thing as far as

2433
01:57:49,920 --> 01:57:52,680
Speaker 1: being completely irrelevant because obviously he turned out to be

2434
01:57:52,720 --> 01:57:56,200
Speaker 1: anything but you and really helping to save the forty

2435
01:57:56,280 --> 01:57:58,760
Speaker 1: nine ers season last year, all the quarterbacks doing down

2436
01:57:59,160 --> 01:58:01,720
Speaker 1: you know, I just you know, I wanted to mention

2437
01:58:01,760 --> 01:58:04,040
Speaker 1: a little college football because you and I, of course

2438
01:58:04,360 --> 01:58:07,520
Speaker 1: for many years doing shows together here on Saturdays, covering

2439
01:58:07,560 --> 01:58:09,880
Speaker 1: a lot of college football. What did you think of

2440
01:58:09,920 --> 01:58:12,920
Speaker 1: their decision to undo the rule that I did not

2441
01:58:13,040 --> 01:58:16,040
Speaker 1: know this was actually introduced in nineteen sixty eight, which

2442
01:58:16,120 --> 01:58:19,640
Speaker 1: was stopping the clock on a first down that has

2443
01:58:19,720 --> 01:58:23,720
Speaker 1: been taken away. I mean, you're obviously gonna have fewer

2444
01:58:23,760 --> 01:58:25,400
Speaker 1: plays during the course of a game, But what do

2445
01:58:25,440 --> 01:58:25,880
Speaker 1: you make of that?

2446
01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:29,280
Speaker 3: Who asked for this or who wanted this? Right?

2447
01:58:29,400 --> 01:58:33,040
Speaker 2: Yeah? Why was after all these years? Why how does

2448
01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:34,200
Speaker 2: something like this happen?

2449
01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:39,880
Speaker 3: I don't know they're going to do dis skies of

2450
01:58:40,120 --> 01:58:46,840
Speaker 3: player safety, but it's going to to significantly alter the

2451
01:58:46,840 --> 01:58:50,200
Speaker 3: way games are played. You're just not going to have

2452
01:58:50,200 --> 01:58:53,760
Speaker 3: as many upsets. Sorry, Like that's just not You're not

2453
01:58:53,800 --> 01:58:56,680
Speaker 3: coming as many upsets, and you're not going to have

2454
01:58:56,680 --> 01:58:57,600
Speaker 3: as many comebacks.

2455
01:58:58,800 --> 01:59:00,720
Speaker 1: You'll still be able to start the clock I think

2456
01:59:00,720 --> 01:59:02,200
Speaker 1: in the last two minutes of that happen at the

2457
01:59:02,240 --> 01:59:02,680
Speaker 1: end of the game.

2458
01:59:02,680 --> 01:59:05,200
Speaker 3: But when you're down. Look when when you're down twenty

2459
01:59:05,240 --> 01:59:07,760
Speaker 3: one points entering the fourth quarter in college football, exactly,

2460
01:59:07,840 --> 01:59:09,760
Speaker 3: you still feel you have a chance to win that game.

2461
01:59:10,400 --> 01:59:13,360
Speaker 3: In the NFL, you don't. Like you don't because you

2462
01:59:13,360 --> 01:59:18,320
Speaker 3: don't have time. The time goes so fast, and it's

2463
01:59:18,400 --> 01:59:21,320
Speaker 3: going to change the way the game is played. There's

2464
01:59:21,320 --> 01:59:23,920
Speaker 3: also little things that will change. It will change the

2465
01:59:23,920 --> 01:59:26,040
Speaker 3: way two minute drives run. Right now in college football

2466
01:59:26,080 --> 01:59:29,320
Speaker 3: because the ball because the clock does stop on first

2467
01:59:29,360 --> 01:59:31,960
Speaker 3: downs outside of any time when you're doing the quote

2468
01:59:32,000 --> 01:59:35,040
Speaker 3: quote two minute drill with five minutes left, you can

2469
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:37,000
Speaker 3: throw a ball over the middle of the field for

2470
01:59:37,040 --> 01:59:39,800
Speaker 3: a first down. The clock stops. Now, now you throw

2471
01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:42,840
Speaker 3: the ball the sidelines, right because if not, okay, how

2472
01:59:42,840 --> 01:59:45,000
Speaker 3: about spikes? Now you have to spike the ball and

2473
01:59:45,080 --> 01:59:47,440
Speaker 3: waste to play. Then you previously used to have to

2474
01:59:47,480 --> 01:59:49,800
Speaker 3: get the ball down the field. Those little things here

2475
01:59:49,840 --> 01:59:52,360
Speaker 3: and there that will change the way the game is played.

2476
01:59:52,640 --> 01:59:55,000
Speaker 3: That'll make it a I think easier for the better

2477
01:59:55,040 --> 01:59:57,480
Speaker 3: teams to win, the ones that are more efficient at

2478
01:59:57,480 --> 02:00:00,280
Speaker 3: moving the ball and will have less comebacks because once

2479
02:00:00,280 --> 02:00:02,600
Speaker 3: the team gets down big, not no time to come back.

2480
02:00:02,600 --> 02:00:04,520
Speaker 1: All right, you're in Carolina and we get your thoughts

2481

2487
02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:18,160
