1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Your tunes about drive on your twenty four to seven

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: home of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation radio.

3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 2: Crowd loud towels twirling as Wentz gets a snap back

4
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 2: throws over the middle of the field, knocked away by

5
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 2: Deshaun Elliott. Welcome back to Shawan a phenomenal game as

6
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: he comes back from injury and the Steelers are going

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 2: to hang on and win an historic game at Croke Park.

8
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 3: Good evening, Steeler Nation, how we do it. That's good

9
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 3: us too. They don't say top of the evening to you,

10
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 3: they say top of the morning. But regardless, Happy Saints.

11
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: Patrick's Day have its fun with the intro once again,

12
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 3: it sure was, It sure was. I actually uh was.

13
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 3: You can go through the pictures on your iPhone. You

14
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 3: can search like just by a location so earlier today,

15
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 3: like I just put in Dublin. I was looking back

16
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 3: through some of the pictures. I was like, man, that

17
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 3: was a lot of fun. The picture of you sitting

18
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: out on the porch. Never seen you smiling that much

19
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 3: in my life. I remember that's the one that's your

20
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: profile picture.

21
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: Now smile that man.

22
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 5: That trip was a lot of fun.

23
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 3: And certainly the fact that the Steelers were able to

24
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 3: claim victory there in that first ever Dublin game at

25
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 3: Croke Park. Regular season Dublin game at Croke Park. Put

26
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: the the cherry on the top. Absolutely our number two

27
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 3: here of the drive. We will get the tweets before

28
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 3: we get out of here. You guys know where to

29
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: get at us if you want to get involved. But

30
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 3: matt few days ago, we got a tweet from Nick

31
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 3: and uh I bookmarked this. We said we would do

32
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: this sometime this week. I thought now would be a

33
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 3: great time to do so. Basically, Nick's tweet was, I

34
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,080
Speaker 3: would love for you guys to do an NFL quarterback draft,

35
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: the guys in the league right now, who you would

36
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 3: take for the next five seasons.

37
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 4: Okay, I could remember what his parameters were, Okay, I

38
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford to be pretty low correct, Rogers would be

39
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 4: incredibly low correct. Okay, I think that five year parameters

40
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 4: a good No, I think that's away looking at yea, yeah.

41
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: Because it's enough of a long term plan. But it's

42
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 3: not like for the next decade, where so much is unpredictable.

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 4: All right, So I have questions for you. Okay, that

44
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 4: was a question. Number one? Is it for now or

45
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 4: is it for building forever or somewhere between. Somewhere because

46
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 4: Stafford might be drafted. I mean, because two years Stafford's

47
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 4: pretty good. Should we include guys from this draft? Mendoza Simpson.

48
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 4: I would vote no, but I don't have to. I

49
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 4: mean we should.

50
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 3: There's only one that would be in consideration. So it's

51
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 3: really just if you want to include, do.

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 4: Like, I don't think this is gonna be a thirty

53
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 4: two guy draft either. No, I mean maybe it's fifteen

54
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: names or whatever. Right, should we include I think the

55
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 4: answer to this is yes, but they may not even

56
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 4: get drafted. Carr Cousins, yeah, Mac Jones, yes, you know

57
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 4: they're all They're gonna be in the NFL this year

58
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 4: if he was the marked at the moment.

59
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 3: Car Car is a little different. But I think if

60
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 3: you played in the NFL last year, you're in this conversation,

61
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: and we can throw in Derek Carr.

62
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 5: I don't.

63
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: I don't think he's back.

64
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I don't think even again, we probably won't

65
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 5: be probably get.

66
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 4: That list, Like, I'm not gonna pick Cousins in the

67
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 4: top twenty.

68
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 3: Do you want to go sixteen? That would give us

69
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: eight to eight, Okay? Is that a good number?

70
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 4: So I was also thinking, this is how I do

71
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 4: things like this for my own lists, which would eliminate

72
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 4: the draft aspect of it. But I find it much

73
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 4: easier to break things down into sub sets. So how

74
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 4: I would do it. If someone asked me to do

75
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 4: this alone Matt's list, I would take the AFC East

76
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 4: and I would go, okay, that's Alan one, May, May two,

77
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 4: Willis three, Geno four, Okay, that's that's one list, okay,

78
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 4: And then I would do that for seven more divisions.

79
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 4: This is just how my goofy brain works. And then

80
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 4: you look at all the ones and you rank those

81
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 4: eight and so whoever comes out if you take Alan, well,

82
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 4: May then moves up to one. And then you look

83
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 4: at the ones again, who's the next best? Because you

84
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 4: don't want to take you could take two from the

85
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,559
Speaker 4: same division. Surely you might go mahomes Herbert or whatever.

86
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 4: You know what I mean. It's a little bit of

87
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 4: a long process, but if you want to keep track,

88
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 4: we could do it, and that would kind of eliminate

89
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 4: the drafting of it. But I think it would also

90
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 4: so kind of rank them and we can fight about it.

91
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 4: I'm not trying to like take control of it, you

92
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 4: know what I mean?

93
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 3: I kind of like the idea of almost doing it,

94
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 3: just like it's a quarterback fantasy draft and we just

95
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 3: someone gets first pick, the next person gets two in

96
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 3: a row, and then we alternate.

97
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 4: From okay, and just scrap all that is that.

98
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 5: Does that work for you?

99
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 4: Yes, that's absolutely worse for me. I just don't want

100
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 4: to forget anybody, but I don't think I will.

101
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 3: No. Yeah, we we we could, like we don't have

102
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,279
Speaker 3: to rush through this, but we can. We can talk

103
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: it out as we go.

104
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 4: TV flip a coin?

105
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 5: Anybody have a coin in here? Do you want to

106
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 5: do the one or two? Behind your back?

107
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 3: What do you I actually looked in my backpack before

108
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 3: we came on air, and I do not have any

109
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 3: the good millennial that I am.

110
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 5: No no change it is.

111
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 4: I love it.

112
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 6: Call.

113
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 5: It is that heads or tails, Tails never fails.

114
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 4: Tails. It is so you can either pick one or

115
00:05:52,480 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 4: the next two. Here's your tip. Oh man, I take

116
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 4: the next two.

117
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 5: I think I want the next two. I think I

118
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 5: want the next two.

119
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 4: One was always a slam dunk. I just don't think

120
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 4: it's a slam dunk now.

121
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 5: I think it's a two horse race.

122
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 4: I'll take my homes.

123
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 5: I had a feeling you.

124
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 4: Kick. I couldn't look at myself in the mirror if

125
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 4: I didn't. Yeah, I mean, and that's he's got a

126
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 4: lot of rings. Yes, he's got a lot of rigs.

127
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 4: I'll go and I'm not even think about his injury.

128
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 4: I'm not going to take it to that level. It's like,

129
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 4: who do you want for the next five years. I'm

130
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 4: not gonna be like, well, he might not be ready

131
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,239
Speaker 4: for week one, you know, like I'm gonna count Daniel

132
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 4: Jones and some of these dudes.

133
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 5: Correct, I'm glad you mentioned that too.

134
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 4: Okay, but don't forget Mendoza.

135
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,239
Speaker 5: He can be can be in the mix.

136
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm obviously gonna go Josh Allen as my first pick.

137
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna go Joe Burrow with my other one.

138
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: Okay, Now do I get two or one?

139
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 5: Now?

140
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:48,719
Speaker 4: I think we just go one.

141
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 5: I think we just go back and forth one and

142
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 5: one at this point.

143
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 4: Okay, this is still easy for me, And after this one,

144
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 4: I might just talk through names. I don't forget anybody,

145
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 4: but I'm taking Lamar. I do feel like there's a

146
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 4: chance that we're talking about to decline. But he's too

147
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 4: special for me. Not that I'm not letting you take

148
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 4: Alan Burrow and Lamar. It would have been very nice. Yeah, I.

149
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 5: Thought those would be the top four.

150
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 4: I still think they're the tier one guy. I didn't

151
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 4: know maybe Sando's tears. I think they will be the

152
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 4: top tier.

153
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: I didn't know if maybe you'd throw a Drake may

154
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 3: in there or something like that, to throw a little

155
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 3: curveball at me.

156
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 4: But you know, I love him. He crossed my mind.

157
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 4: But Lamar's more of the bird in the hand.

158
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: After these four. After these four, I think it starts

159
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 3: to get a little more difficult.

160
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 4: I do too.

161
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: Now I'm probably looking at this the wrong way because

162
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 3: on my I'm looking like I got Josh Allen, I

163
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 3: got Joe Burrow.

164
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 4: I'm like, I need.

165
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 5: Somebody who's proven a little something to me here.

166
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 4: It's like, I'm not gonna look at it that way.

167
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 5: I shouldn't.

168
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I should just take Justin Herbert and not

169
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 3: be dumb. But in my mind that I'm like, I've

170
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: got Josh Allen, who's never won anything. I've got Joe Burrow,

171
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: who hasn't been to the playoffs in three years, and

172
00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: I've got Herbert.

173
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 4: Who everyone, you're not fielding a team. It's not like

174
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 4: this guy only plays right tackle. I can't have to

175
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 4: right tackles, you know, right, you know, But I.

176
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 5: Think I have to take Herbert here. I gotta do it.

177
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 4: I don't blame it.

178
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take justin Herbert.

179
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 4: So I'm just gonna do this super quick. Just scanning

180
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: the league, I think the names we should be considering

181
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 4: at this point. I think I'll go division by division.

182
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 4: May's the only one left in the East. I don't

183
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 4: think there's anybody in the North anymore. No, just names

184
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 4: to be considered. Ward, Stroud, Lawrence, absolutely, I guess Jones.

185
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 4: I mean maybe he gets drafted if we last long enough.

186
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 4: That's not my mind works. I'm still in the West. Mendoza, Ye, Nicks, Yes,

187
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 4: he's getting better. Two are already gone from there, Dak

188
00:08:53,840 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 4: Hurts start, Jayden for sure, Caleb Lovely Golf, Kyler m Shuck.

189
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 4: I don't think anybody at Land. I'm considering Baker, I will.

190
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 4: I won't take Young. You can have them, but we

191
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: can at least make sure that everyone remembers the name.

192
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 4: Nobody from Arizona. I don't think I can take Stafford

193
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: for a five year.

194
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

195
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: Purdy's a good player, and Darnold I'll take May.

196
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 5: I had a feeling that was going to be your pick. Yeah, Yeah,

197
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 5: I think that's a good pick.

198
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 3: I know a lot of people soured on him after

199
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 3: the super Bowl, but that's just one game. I'm not

200
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 3: ready to give up on him yet. Had a feeling

201
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: you were going to take May. So we each have

202
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 3: three off the board. You have mahomes Lamar and Drake May.

203
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 3: I have Alan Burrow Herbert. I think that's a pretty good.

204
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 4: Yeah for each of us. This might be the hardest pick.

205
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 5: I think I was just gonna.

206
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 4: Say yeah, Like, I can make a case for five names.

207
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 3: I can make a case for Trevor Lawrence. I could

208
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 3: make a case for Dak Prescott, for Jordan Love.

209
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 4: I don't know.

210
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 5: Maybe I'm going recency here. I might take Caleb Williams

211
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 5: here m. I don't blame you one best second year

212
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 5: in the books. I think he's only going to get

213
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 5: better in that system. I think they got some work

214
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 5: to do on the offensive line, but I think they've

215
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 5: got a real nice offense.

216
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 4: Built around him. I don't think it's insane to think

217
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 4: in three years or four years, he might be the

218
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 4: first pick. I mean, he's capable of getting there. Some

219
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 4: of these guys hurts can't get there. Yes, you know

220
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 4: what I mean.

221
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 3: And it's like evaluating that versus like a Trevor Lawrence

222
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 3: who feels like he's turned a corner. But do I

223
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 3: think he's the seventh best quarterback in the NFL at

224
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 3: this point?

225
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 4: Now?

226
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 3: I don't know if Caleb Williams is the seventh best

227
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 3: quarterback in the NFL at this point, but I could

228
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 3: certainly see him getting it.

229
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 4: But in two years you might be like he's easily,

230
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 4: or three years or four years when he's twenty eight.

231
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 5: I think I'm going Caleb Williams here for.

232
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 4: Basically the same reasons I'm gonna take Jaden Daniels. Then

233
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 4: they were gonna be my next two picks. To be

234
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 4: honest with you, I didn't want to divulge that because

235
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 4: I thought you might still back out of Caleb will

236
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 4: maybe would sneak them both. But I think that's the

237
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 4: way you got to look at it like it's a

238
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 4: five year plan. I like using Sando's tears, like, who

239
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 4: are we talking about that could become Tier one over

240
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 4: that five year stretch. I think May Daniels and Willie

241
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 4: Klob qualified top candidates. They I all could get there,

242
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 4: you know, like to say Ward or Mendoza, It's like, yeah, maybe,

243
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 4: but I just haven't seen much to go off of

244
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,839
Speaker 4: it to say that you're at least on the right path,

245
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 4: I mean to get the Tier one is there's only

246
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 4: like three or four on the planet.

247
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 3: Now my mind starts to think more about Trevor Lawrence.

248
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 3: Here eight names off the board, so this is pick

249
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 3: number nine. I'm thinking Trevor Lawrence. I'm thinking Jordan Love,

250
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: I'm thinking cam Ward. I think I'm gonna go Jordan

251
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: Love here with my fifth pick.

252
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 4: I was about to as well. So we've really taken

253
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 4: each other's guys for the most part. Is there a

254
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: name I'm forgetting?

255
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 3: Dak is still on the board, Trevor Lawrence is still

256
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 3: on the board. Prety Darnold, cam Ward, CJ. Stroud, GoF

257
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: Hurts Mayfield, I say, party Perty still on the board.

258
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna take Lawrence. I mean the ability is

259
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 4: still obvious. Finally, was put in a good situation some

260
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 4: of his early struggles are on him too, but I'm

261
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 4: pretty sure he's gonna be at least a Tier two

262
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: player five years from now. Now, then that's what you're

263
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 4: getting here. I mean, that's a good draft pick.

264
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 3: I think he's turned the corner in terms of it

265
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 3: feels like he's got a real floor now.

266
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, how great?

267
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 5: He can ultimately be still up in the air.

268
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 4: But I think this is the same for predicting Hall

269
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 4: of Fame anymore. But like he's gonna have a good career.

270
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 3: Yes, So this is pick eleven here, after taking some

271
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 3: young upstarts in Caleb Williams and Jordan Love, I think

272
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with a little bit of a bird

273
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 3: in a hand on this one instead of another young

274
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 3: still wait and see commodity. I think I'm gonna go

275
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 3: Dak Prescott here.

276
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 4: Okay, my only worry is what is he in five years?

277
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 4: You might be out of the league. I bet you

278
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 4: definitely get three out of them.

279
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 5: But if I get three really good years out.

280
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 4: Of it, yeah, I mean he's still playing as a

281
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 4: top ten guy for sure. I'm gonna do the total

282
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 4: opposite thing, though, and I'm gonna take Ward dang it,

283
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 4: because he could he could totally flop.

284
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 5: I was hoping I could let could let him slide

285
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 5: one more round.

286
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 4: I mean five years, you might be on his second

287
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 4: team or fourth team, like Darnald or Bayfield. I mean,

288
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 4: we were taking those guys high when they year one

289
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 4: of their career, and that would not have gone well.

290
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 3: So here's where we're at. Twelve picks through. We still

291
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 3: have Stafford on the board, Party on the board, Darnald

292
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: on the board.

293
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 5: Mayfield, c J.

294
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: Stroud, Tyler Shuck, Jalen Hurts, Jared Goff, Mendoza.

295
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 5: But we're starting to.

296
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: Get it's getting pretty thin into a thinner Jones, yep,

297
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 3: into it into a baker.

298
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 4: I think you mentioned him.

299
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 5: You can do a thinner tier here.

300
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 3: I think is the way that I would put Nix

301
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 3: is kind of interesting for this conversation.

302
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 4: Willis Willis, I should have at least brought him up.

303
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,679
Speaker 4: Hmmm mm hmm.

304
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 5: Next five years. So I'm still waiting on Matthew Stafford.

305
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 3: There will come a point where it's like, hey, he's

306
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: he's a better option than anybody that is left.

307
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 5: Even if you only get one year.

308
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 4: I might get one though, like Rogers, is only one year, Like,

309
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 4: you can't even consider him?

310
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, mm Rock Party, Sam Darnold.

311
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 4: Party is a good football player.

312
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 5: You know what this meant?

313
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 4: I never give him enough credit.

314
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 3: This might be the point, though, where I buy a

315
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 3: stock at its lowest and hope that it, you know,

316
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 3: six months from now it's sitting pretty.

317
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 4: I might go see J Stroud here. Oh I was

318
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 4: thinking about that too.

319
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 5: I think I'm gonna go see J Stroud.

320
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 4: Like Frankly, if I often think of quarterbacks as stocks

321
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 4: and you're gett him for pennies on the dollar right now,

322
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: I would buy him right now, you know for sure. Yeah,

323
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 4: I'm gonna do what I did just with Ward too,

324
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 4: because I have basically an equal grade on Ward and me.

325
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 4: And if notice, for one more round, Yeah, and if

326
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 4: you notice, I was kind of planting seeds like Party

327
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 4: is a good player. Yeah, I don't. Let's not talk

328
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 4: about Mendoza. I bet Mendoza is going to have a

329
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 4: good career. But we said that about every first overall pick.

330
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: He might look horrendous, but he could still. We're buying

331
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 4: for five years, buying for five years, this is a

332
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 4: long it's a long term investment. Yeah, how many more

333
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 4: are we picking?

334
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 3: So that's four to each have seven, that's fourteen total.

335
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 3: Should we do one more each? At least put us

336
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 3: at half the league?

337
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 4: Yeah. M trying to think who my next pick for

338
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 4: the game. I think I'm gonna go Sam Darnold. Here,

339
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna go Sam. I get it.

340
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 3: I was thinking about going the younger route once again,

341
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: but I got a lot of those guys.

342
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 4: I think success with two different teams kind of shows

343
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 4: that it's me, not you. You know what I mean? Like,

344
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 4: I don't need this the world to be perfect.

345
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 5: He's in a situation like Seattle.

346
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: The next five years, he might not get back to

347
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,239
Speaker 3: another super Bowl, but he'll have a lot of success.

348
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 4: Here's another one that's sort of like Dak. I'm gonna

349
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 4: take Golf. Okay, I think Gough's good. Yeah, Oh absolutely,

350
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 4: He's won a lot, he's been the Super Bowls. I

351
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 4: don't see any decline. Those pocket passers tend to kind

352
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 4: of drift away slow. I just wonder year four and five,

353
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 4: why be thrilled about him? You know?

354
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 3: So we did go sixteen deep and nobody picked brock Party.

355
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 3: Is that the Is that the biggest name still on

356
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 3: the list. Baker's still there.

357
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 4: They sat finished the season so bad poorly. I bet

358
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 4: some people would take Young I want nothing to do. No,

359
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 4: I say, I take Shuck, Like out of that division,

360
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 4: I would take Shuck would be my first pick. Willis

361
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 4: wouldn't be too far off from me. And you might

362
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 4: miss sure, you know, but you're taking a cut. I

363
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 4: think Party's probably the biggest name not Draft. Probably Party.

364
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 4: We might regret not taking Kyler Ooh. I mean he's

365
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 4: kind of he's another stock. I mean his stock is low.

366
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 4: I mean, and i'd buy that stock right now that

367
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 4: I bet it goes up. It might not go through

368
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 4: the roof, but I bet it goes up.

369
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 3: I think this is a good list of sixteen though

370
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 3: I think that I think that's a good place to

371
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 3: cut it off.

372
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 4: So let's you wouldn't consider mac Jones. No, I didn't

373
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: even go down this road. But I wouldn't considered Simpson.

374
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 4: I wouldn't consider Jalen Hurts. Yeah, I'm not. I've never

375
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 4: I think Hurts a bit of a figazy.

376
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 3: Then it really gets fun if you do like the

377
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 3: how do you compare like the Baker Mayfields and the

378
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts is to like Arch Manning and Dante Moore.

379
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 4: I take all those guys all, yeh yeah, might as

380
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 4: well go drafted well before.

381
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 5: This, might as well.

382
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Matt eight or mahomes Lamar, Drake May, Jade

383
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 3: and Daniels, Trevor Lawrence cam Ward, Fernando Mendoza and Jared

384
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 3: Goff My eight, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Josh Herbert, Caleb Williams,

385
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 3: Jordan Love, Dak Prescott, C J.

386
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 5: Strad and Sam Darnold.

387
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 4: What did we send boat? Did we sell bow? Nick Short?

388
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,959
Speaker 3: I think hammer Brock Party would be next. In my conversation,

389
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 3: maybe Tyler Shuck too.

390
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 4: Next might have won the super Bowl if he stays healthy.

391
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 4: Maybe you know what I mean, Maybe Kyler won a

392
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 4: super Bowl like yeah, yeah, yeah.

393
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,159
Speaker 5: Four hundred days ago, and we're not picking him now.

394
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 4: He's throwing the water. I mean, like I'm a I

395
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 4: don't care about their surroundings. You can't look at it

396
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 4: like Nix's stock went up to day because they traded

397
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 4: for Wattles. That's not the way I all.

398
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,479
Speaker 5: The people not picked.

399
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 3: I would say NIX has the best chance to if

400
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 3: we were to run this list back halfway through the season.

401
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, to be your Week eight like Nix. I want Nixt. Yeah,

402
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 4: he's gonna be he gonna be a twelve year starter

403
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 4: and win a lot of games.

404
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that was fun.

405
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 4: I enjoyed that. Yeah, let us know.

406
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 5: Who's a draft do you like better?

407
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll do this again at some point, maybe during

408
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 3: like the bye week or something, and of course.

409
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 4: We're on SNR. I mean, how do the Steelers get

410
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 4: one of those? Yeah? You know what I mean.

411
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 5: I would really like one of those, particularly the first

412
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 5: ten or so that we pay no doubt.

413
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,959
Speaker 4: I mean, those are the superheroes. But I want one

414
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 4: of those. I mean I want one of the sixteen. Yes, yeah,

415
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 4: yes I do.

416
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 3: So let's table that for now. You can let us

417
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 3: know on Twitter. How how you think we did. I

418
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 3: do want to talk about some sink or swim years

419
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 3: for some of these quarterbacks in the NFL when we

420
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 3: return to kind of piggyback off of this exercise, we'll

421
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 3: do that before we get to your tweets. To close

422
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 3: this thing down for the day, it is the Drive

00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 3: Guess maybe this is like the quarterback Hour here today,

436
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 3: all right on the show.

437
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 5: Sometimes you gotta do that. So, Matt, we just did

438
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 5: our draft.

439
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 3: We went eight rounds deep, sixteen total of the quarterbacks

440
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 3: we would want for the next five years.

441
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 5: I want to talk with you about a trio of

442
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 5: guys that I have here. You can always throw in another.

443
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 5: Have you any other names?

444
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 4: Yeah?

445
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 3: But JJ McCarthy, Michael Pennox Junior, and Kyler Murray.

446
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 4: Now you're you said, what make it her break yet?

447
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 4: Kind of sink or swim type here?

448
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah?

449
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 4: Yeah?

450
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 3: And now, to be fair, I think Kyler Murray is

451
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,719
Speaker 3: a little bit of a different story because those two

452
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 3: different than those two are still on their first franchise contract.

453
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 3: If they don't have a good year this year, they

454
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 3: will get another opportunity elsewhere, not the same opportunity that

455
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 3: they have now. But it's not like they're going to

456
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 3: wash out of the league if they don't perform this year.

457
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 4: But they could be on the Field's path, which is

458
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 4: not a path you want to go. Yes, I mean

459
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 4: they could go Field or Donald Mayfield, Daniel Jones.

460
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 3: Maybe there's a little bit of a middle Smith middle ground.

461
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 4: Right where they like prove that you can be a

462
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 4: starter or not that a team will have enough faith

463
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,239
Speaker 4: in you to be a starter or not.

464
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 5: Are those three fair?

465
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 4: Three?

466
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 3: Is there anybody else we should be adding? Like I

467
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 3: feel like it's too early for Tyler Shuck, you know.

468
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 4: Like, no, can't do that. It's unfortunate. I'm kind of

469
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 4: unfortunate for McCarthy and Pennix that they're already in this

470
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 4: situation because some of it's not their fault. I'm McCarthy

471
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 4: missus entire work of year.

472
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 3: Willis in that conversation too, But we've already talked about.

473
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 4: The bottom quite a bit. Kyler is different. I mean,

474
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 4: I think Kyler is getting to the point like where

475
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 4: Donald was when he went to Minnesota. You know, like

476
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 4: if you don't make it here, you'll probably be a

477
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 4: lifetime backup. You know, like this is probably your last

478
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 4: chance to definitely be a starter, an unquestioned starter. Yes,

479
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 4: there's a guy gets top twenty guy in the league

480
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 4: or yeah, Strouds it a little bit of a make

481
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 4: or break point too. Man, that's a good one because

482
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,439
Speaker 4: he has not gotten the contract yet. I think he

483
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 4: will before training camp or before the regular season. But

484
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 4: that's there's gonna be some.

485
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 5: Trepidation make or break than McCarthy and Pennix.

486
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 3: But yeah, but still that's a fair that's a fair

487
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 3: name to bring into.

488
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 4: The Yeah, I mean he's kind of at a career crossroads.

489
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 4: Maybe that's a better way of putting it. Even too,

490
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 4: maybe Daniel Jones in this conversation because of his injury. Yeah,

491
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,359
Speaker 4: you know, like he was a success, but how do

492
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 4: you rebound from injury?

493
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 5: Like I'm not counting Geno in this conversation.

494
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 4: No, or like he's on the back.

495
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 3: Those guys they're on they're teeing off on whole seventeen,

496
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like they can see the club.

497
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 4: Most of their books written, and it's been good enough

498
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 4: that they're still making money and doing this.

499
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 3: For these guys like Pennox and McCarthy, they're on the

500
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 3: front nine still. You know, Kyler Murray, he's at the turn,

501
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 3: he's halfway through, he's halfway through his round.

502
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 4: And you can't do like the Will how Lords of

503
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 4: the world not either, you know, Like, yeah, there are

504
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 4: guys not Will Howard, but there are guys that I

505
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: better have a pretty good camp or I'm not going

506
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 4: in the league anymore and I'm have to be a

507
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 4: high school coach or so insurance. So there's those guys.

508
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 4: That's all we're talking about though, McCarthy, Pennix, Murray, c J. Stroud.

509
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 5: Are those the big four.

510
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 4: In the Stroud mold. I might put Hurts not the

511
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 4: most patience sneaky good one because he's making I mean,

512
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 4: we wouldn't have put two here last year and he sank.

513
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: One thing though that I will say for this, I

514
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 3: don't this is no secret to you. The Eagles are

515
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 3: very much so they do things the way they do things. Yeah,

516
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 3: and for the most part that's been good.

517
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 5: They've been to three Super Bowls in the last in

518
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 5: the last eight or nine years.

519
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 4: They're one of the model organizations go on all.

520
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 3: But sometimes that causes them to be a little stubborn too.

521
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 3: And I just I think I think Jeffrey Lurry, the owner,

522
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 3: and Howie Roseman the GM, they are just Jalen Hurts guys.

523
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 3: You know, like they cast aside Carson Wentz who would

524
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 3: have won an MVP, and you know when yeah, to

525
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 3: go to Hurts when everyone thought that that was crazy.

526
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 5: Now they were right. But they were way ahead of

527
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 5: the curb on that there's.

528
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 4: Been so and not that you're close to the organization,

529
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 4: but you were closer at least I worked there for

530
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 4: three years.

531
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 3: I have relationships still with a lot of people who

532
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 3: are close to the organization.

533
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 4: But they win nine or ten games and don't quite

534
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 4: even get in the playoffs this year.

535
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 5: Now that could change everything.

536
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 4: Sure would you think they'd blame the coach over the quarterback?

537
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:40,479
Speaker 5: One thousand percent?

538
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,360
Speaker 3: Sirianni will go before Hurts does, a J Brown will

539
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 3: go before Hurts does. Yeah, entire offense before Hurts does.

540
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 4: Okay, See, I was also thinking that I was going

541
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 4: to lead that all that guy. Okay, I mean, and

542
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 4: that's a really good point.

543
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 5: Model citizen models.

544
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 4: Everyone loves them. Yeah, yeah, this is the hardest worker,

545
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 4: first one in last see. I was thinking, not the

546
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 4: most patient organization. Maybe stubborn, but not patient.

547
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 5: True, but they do stand by their people.

548
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: Okay, because if they looked at it, like, boy, this

549
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 4: quarter kind of like the Rams did with Golf, Like

550
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 4: if we can upgrade this spot, we're back to being

551
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 4: the best team in the league. That's why I thought

552
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 4: maybe with him. I think Baker's in this conversation too.

553
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 4: Baker's definitely in this conversation. I kind of the season

554
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 4: was terrible, and a lot of it was injury and

555
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 4: stuff too, but.

556
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,199
Speaker 5: That's the stuff you got to be able to overcome, right.

557
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 3: I want to stay in these you know, because solidified

558
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 3: franchise quarterback roles.

559
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 4: I'm sitting here thinking, like, who are sneaky teams that

560
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 4: if there are six or seven first round quarterbacks that

561
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,239
Speaker 4: might be like, I've seen enough of my guy, I'm

562
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 4: gonna go take door number two. I think Baker's camp

563
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 4: could definitely be that team.

564
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 5: I don't think Golf's there, but maybe if the Lions

565
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 5: took another.

566
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 4: Don't make the playoffs again and just look at his

567
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 4: age and they try to trade him to a team

568
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 4: like Pittsburgh or whoever, you know what I mean, and

569
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 4: say we'll go and we have cap issues, we need

570
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 4: a younger guy. There's more than you think when you

571
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 4: look at it that way, because like Bryce young, you

572
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 4: could easily come a conclusion like it's not good enough.

573
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 4: He's good, he's not good enough. You know, that's career crossroads.

574
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 5: There's a lot of those, a lot of those in

575
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 5: the league. So that's a pretty good list.

576
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.

577
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 3: I feel like maybe there's somebody that we're forgetting, But

578
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 3: I do feel like that's a pretty good, pretty good I.

579
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 4: Think, like Darnold, say for another year, yes, even if

580
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 4: they didn't make the playoffs, yes, or party probably stay

581
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 4: for another year.

582
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 3: And again some of these young guys like a Jackson Dart,

583
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 3: I still think it's that's a different conversation.

584
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 4: Yea, it's a different conversation.

585
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,199
Speaker 5: That's just a do you belong? Not do you you know?

586
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 5: Should you stay?

587
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 3: These are kind of should you stay conversations versus versus

588
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 3: the do you belong ones?

589
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 4: Like we might be having like Shauldor doesn't count to

590
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 4: me because I don't think he's.

591
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 5: Sean Watson might count if he gets back, Yeah, right.

592
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 4: Right, right. He may never play football again after this

593
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: year or whatever I mean should or kind of counts,

594
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,880
Speaker 4: and that if he's the opening day starter, what would

595
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 4: he have to do to keep his job for the

596
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 4: next year. He's doing a lot, a lot, and it's

597
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 4: probably out kicking his coverage. The thing about like a dart, though,

598
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 4: is that team has not won a lot of games lately.

599
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 4: If you get to seven or eight wins this year, yeah,

600
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 4: I'm thinking if you get the five wins again and

601
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 4: he was hurt for seven games, Harva.

602
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 3: Spends a year with him and is like, Nope, I'm

603
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 3: not gonna be able to win a Super Bowl.

604
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 4: I want Yeah, I mean, if we're right about next

605
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 4: year's quarterback class, there's really more names than you think.

606
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 4: Because door number two is beautiful, it's still an unknown.

607
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 5: It's a big pond with some big fish.

608
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you're going fish, but there's a lot

609
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 4: of aces and kings in that pile.

610
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: You're right, pond that you and Graham Pappy stop back

611
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 3: in the spring and you know there's some large mouth

612
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 3: bass in that thing.

613
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 4: And you're like, I don't need to spend sixty million

614
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 4: in caps based on a quarterback. I'm gonna roll the

615
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 4: dice on the rookie who might be the next stud

616
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 4: like Knicks is safe?

617
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 5: Yes, I mean it would have to be a disastrous

618
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:12,879
Speaker 5: but yes, see, like the.

619
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 4: Worst quarterback in the league. And I can't imagine, you know, right,

620
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 4: anybody we just drafted is safe.

621
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 5: You think that Patrick Mahomes guy's safe in Kansas City?

622
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 4: I don't know.

623
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 5: I just had a losing season. What if they have

624
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 5: another one?

625
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I been those sixteen. We took her safe.

626
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 5: Brock Party's totally safe, right, and he's got the contract.

627
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 5: They went twelve and five.

628
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 4: The only way he'd not be What if they do that?

629
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 3: What if Kyle Shanahan looks in the mirror and does

630
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 3: the McVeigh things.

631
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what my buddy just did this and it worked.

632
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 5: I've got the twelfth best, thirteenth best quarterback in the league.

633
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, but is that I'll send you party in two

634
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 4: first for Burrow.

635
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 3: I had party now with my twenty nineteen Niners defense.

636
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 5: Sure, different conversation, but our roster's not quite what it

637
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 5: was five six years ago.

638
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 3: He's a little bit better, but we just we we

639
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,040
Speaker 3: don't have the roster to do the Eagles or the

640
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 3: Seahawks thing where we have the twelfth best quarterback and

641
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl.

642
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 4: See here was also my party scenario is he plays

643
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 4: five games, they win three or four of them, gets hurt,

644
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 4: mac Jones comes in and is better hmm, and Purty's

645
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 4: out for the year and never gets to get back

646
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 4: on the horse. And the Niners just feel like, well, hey, Pittsburgh,

647
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 4: you want Purdy. Hey Jets, you want Purdy because back's

648
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 4: our guy. Now, you know, you could get Wally pitted

649
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 4: in a way.

650
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 5: You know, it is funny. I'm looking at that.

651
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 3: Just the teams that made the playoffs last year, especially,

652
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 3: I would say Caroline is the only one whose quarterback

653
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:38,719
Speaker 3: is really in danger.

654
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 4: Nicks, May, Lawrence, I'm not there on Stroud.

655
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:48,719
Speaker 3: Not there on Stroud obviously, Josh Allen and Herbert, Seahawks,

656
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 3: no Bears, no Eagles. Okay, maybe different conversation.

657
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 4: Pampanther didn't make the playoffs.

658
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 5: Tampa did not make the playoffs. The Lions did not

659
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 5: make the playoffs. The Colts did not make the playoffs.

660
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 4: I think would agree that if a playoff quarterback from

661
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 4: last year was not the starter in twenty twenty seven, right,

662
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 4: the same team, it's.

663
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 5: Young, that would be the odds on.

664
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 3: That's the Steelers, don't cat's they got to bet three

665
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,719
Speaker 3: hundred bucks to win fifty dollars.

666
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, Steelers don't.

667
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 3: Killers don't care because their quarterback is gonna be forty three. Chris,

668
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 3: the guy that we think is going to be their quarterback,

669
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 3: right is forty five.

670
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 4: I'm pretty certain.

671
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 3: And like I wouldn't include the Rams and that either

672
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 3: because if Stafford's not back in twenty twenty, retirements of

673
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: different retirements a different.

674
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,239
Speaker 4: Story, because it's not making break time. They're the Hall

675
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 4: of Fame. They've made it.

676
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 5: Rodgers are going to the Hall of Fame.

677
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 4: I think they have their career crossroads. They they made

678
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 4: the right choice.

679
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 3: At the crossroads, they can see the clubhouse. But the

680
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 3: club house includes a gold jacket. Yes for those guys.

681
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 4: There's a lot of birdies on that. Yeah.

682
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 3: Let's take our let's take our last let's take our

Speaker 4: Not at all? Yeah, Sam, Yeah, maybe I'm not Irish.

702
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 3: I am completely German and English. I do love the

703
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 3: Irish culture. I do love guinness.

704
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,880

705
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,600

Speaker 5: Nice, but that Yeah, that's that's about it.

710
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, warm for me. It's just a Tuesday, I think

711
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 4: more or less.

712
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, same, might like crack another Guinness tonight,

713
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 3: though we'll see.

714
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 5: Twist my army.

715
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 4: I may have a h an Irish whisky.

716
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 5: And perhaps I hear you have some of that in

717
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 5: your basement.

718
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 4: Red breast or something better than usual.

719
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 5: Question for you.

720
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 3: I've been watching through Peaky Blinders again because the movie

721
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,480
Speaker 3: is coming out here. Yeah, and I think this was

722
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 3: an old timey thing. But like every time they go

723
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 3: in the bar and they order rounds of whiskey, the

724
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 3: bar keep is always.

725
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 5: Like Irish or Scottish?

726
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 3: Is that just? Is that just Bourbon and Scotch? Is

727
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 3: that the difference?

728
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 4: No, sort of.

729
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 3: This is West's tweet to you, Matt. What's the difference

730
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 3: between Irish and Scottish whiskey?

731
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 4: So whiskey Bourbon is a branch of whiskey that is

732
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 4: American and their rules for it there. I don't know

733
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 4: the rules off the top of my head.

734
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 5: But kind of like tequila and mescal, like similar.

735
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 4: And a better example. Now it's almost like looking at

736
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 4: like beer, a family tree, like this is whiskey, whiskey, vodka, tequila,

737
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 4: they're all their own things. And then here are the branch.

738
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 5: Like beer, maybe with lagger and pilsner, and I p.

739
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 4: A yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I know there's others,

740
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 4: but to generalize whiskey, here's one branch, Canadian Crown Royal.

741
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 4: There's not many of them in the liquor store. Don't

742
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 4: get me wrong. Bourbon, very very American, very Kentucky makers. Yeah, right, exactly.

743
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 4: Now there's other many other American whiskeys that don't fit

744
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 4: the exact.

745
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 5: Rules of rhyme whiskey and all is stuff.

746
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 4: Yes, and even like Jack Daniels is not bourbon. You

747
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 4: want to see the word bourbon right in it. And

748
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 4: a lot of it is what percentage of corn you

749
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 4: use and all those type of things which I kind

750
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,439
Speaker 4: of know, but I don't know, right, right, right, right, right,

751
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 4: So more or less American whiskey. Now there's also like

752
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 4: Japanese too, but I've not really sampled it. But then

753
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 4: Irish and Scotch, it's Scotch. It's not Scottish whiskey. It's Scotch.

754
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 4: They're very different to me Scotch. People love Scotch or

755
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 4: they don't like Scotch. I don't like Scottisch. I grew

756
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 4: up on Bourbon. I like Irish a lot. Think bush Mills, Jamison.

757
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 4: They're the two biggest hits. Red Bird Red Breasts is

758
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 4: one you'll find in liquor stores, a little more expensive,

759
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 4: tell them more do. But the Scotches are the ones

760
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 4: that are like, yeah, yeah, Now, some people might think

761
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 4: Irish and Scotch are similar, sort of Irish is way smoother,

762
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 4: and I just never like Scotch. There was even a

763
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 4: summer my former brother in law was a big Scotch guy,

764
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 4: so I kept it around. I'm like, I try it,

765
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 4: I'm like, this is harsh. Okay, it's just not I

766
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,359
Speaker 4: don't enjoy the taste of it. And people love it.

767
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 4: And people that are the stoeple that like Scotch like Scotch. Yeah,

768
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 4: like I didn't chew tobacco much, but like the Copenhagen

769
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 4: people only chewed Copenhagen, you know, like Scotch. People seem

770
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 4: to only like Scotch. And there's also high and again,

771
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 4: people know more about this than.

772
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 5: Me Hyland whiskey and all that stuff in Scotland.

773
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 4: There's Lowland Scotch and there's Highland Scotch. And one of

774
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 4: them is much earthier, pedier, harder to get down for

775
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 4: me sure than the Highland stuff. You know, to me,

776
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 4: it tastes like dirt almost, but it's super strong. Like

777
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 4: even when I would open a Scotch, I got some

778
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 4: of the better ones, well, not the best ones, not

779
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 4: one hundred dollar bottles. Yeah, Like if I would open

780
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,399
Speaker 4: a bottle of Scotch in my basement, my wife would

781
00:35:59,440 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 4: be like.

782
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 5: Smell it up, So what is that?

783
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, this is not not The bourbons aren't

784
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 4: as strong. Some of them are one hundred and twenty proof.

785
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 4: It's just to me, they just go down better, they

786
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 4: taste better. I grew up on them. I like them better. Yeah,

787
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:13,359
Speaker 4: I like her.

788
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 5: He helped me.

789
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 4: So they're all like different branches.

790
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 5: Williamson on whiskey there.

791
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that makes makes sense.

792
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 5: I just have never really known that, but that that

793
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 5: makes sense. Let's get into your Irish is.

794
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 4: Very smooth and very likable. Like my mom used to

795
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 4: drink a lot of bourbon. Now we'll drink like Irish

796
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 4: on and bourbon gives her heartburn. Now, I mean she's

797
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 4: almost eight years older now. She'll drink irish, which is smoother,

798
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 4: loves it, a couple of rocks or whatever, you know,

799
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 4: jamison or whatever, and it's I highly recommend on a

800
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 4: day like this, give it a shot, folks. Good stuff.

801
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 4: That's my second favorite. Okay, Iris Bourbon one, Irish two. Yeah,

802
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 4: Bourbon's in the blood, you know.

803
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 3: Daniel tweets it says the world as mentioned the World

804
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: Baseball Classic. It has me wondering if there was an

805
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 3: NFL All Start game where each state had its own team.

806
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 3: Oh wow, who's in the final four? Who wins the

807
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 3: whole thing? We might have to do this as an

808
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 3: exercise in one of these days. I need to do

809
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 3: a little more research, but.

810
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 4: I assume Texas to Texas, Florida, California is gonna.

811
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 3: Be California, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Georgia. I mean that's five there.

812
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, named as strong as I mean, like, if you

813
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 4: did the all Time Team, PA could probably hang with anybody.

814
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 3: It's not as strong right now as some of the others,

815
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 3: but I bet you would still be in the top

816
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 3: seven or eight. I would think so Virginia would be

817
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 3: in the conversation.

818
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, Florida, Georgia, Luis. I wonder like Mississippi and some

819
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 4: of this other ones too. I think I'd be better.

820
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 4: You think is Arizona better than I think? I don't know.

821
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 4: Like in the recruiting world, you can't recruit every state

822
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 4: because there's just not enough manpower. Like we didn't recruit Minnesota.

823
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 4: Someone gave us a tip on Larry and that just

824
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 4: kind of happened. He was the only guy we ever

825
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 4: got out of Anisota. But we only did like the states.

826
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 4: You could drive to base in Florida, and then my

827
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 4: last year we picked up only Houston, like let's dabble

828
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 4: in Houston. And I remember putting on the Houston High

829
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 4: School tape thinking this is the best of all of them.

830
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 4: I mean, it was like Vince young'sier coming out, and

831
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 4: like everyone would think frid night lights, the stadiums.

832
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 5: Who are like way State is massive.

833
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 4: And the state of the human beings playing the game crazy.

834
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 3: I would think Texas, Florida in California would be towards

835
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 3: the top of the conversation.

836
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 4: I would have to think, so, I mean, Florida was

837
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 4: always loaded.

838
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 5: And again, just the population sizes of those states too.

839
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, just to show the strength of them. I mean,

840
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 4: like schools that aren't close by recruited Florida and Texas

841
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,359
Speaker 4: just because there's you know, the Longhorns and Sooners. Can't

842
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 4: take all of them, right, right, the you can't take

843
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 4: all of them.

844
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 3: Sudesh tweets us and says, I'm looking forward to this

845
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 3: draft like I used to look forward to Christmas vacation

846
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 3: break from school. I feel like Omar has filled so

847
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: many holes that the Steelers can truly draft BPA with

848
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 3: attention of course, to wide receiver, offensive line, maybe safety,

849
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 3: and defensive line. Sudsh asks though, if it's if we

850
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 3: go hypothetical worst case scenario and Broderick Jones isn't ready

851
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 3: to play this year, what happens there? Do you roll

852
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 3: it back with Dylan Cook and somebody else? What does

853
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 3: that mean for the guard position as well? It's a

854
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 3: good question by Sudesh there. I'm sure they have a

855
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 3: clear picture of that than we do. I think that's

856
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 3: important to note.

857
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 4: In this the medical stuff they're going to be on

858
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 4: top of. And again, this is one of the reasons

859
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 4: I love the off season and the draft and free

860
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 4: agency is if you're smart, you can read the tea

861
00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 4: leaves and figure out these things, or think of those

862
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 4: around you, think what do they What clues are they

863
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 4: leaving us? What breadcrumbs are they leaving us? And that

864
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 4: doesn't mean if they take a left tackle in the

865
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 4: first round that Broderick's definitely not ready. But it makes

866
00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 4: you think, I guess that's not the best example because

867
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 4: that position is weird. And I've mentioned this a few times.

868
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'll do a mock on my own and I'll

869
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 4: just throw it out on Twitter, and people like, you're

870
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 4: taking a left tackle way too early. I'm like, maybe,

871
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 4: but most left tackles could play left guard this year

872
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 4: and then maybe kick out and I would hate, hate,

873
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 4: hate for us to be sitting here next year. I

874
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 4: knew you were gonna say this, and I need a quarterback.

875
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,359
Speaker 4: In a left tackle. You can't get position, you can't

876
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 4: get both. So I need to cover my butt. You know,

877
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 4: even if Cook is really good, having an extra left

878
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 4: tackles not too bad. I mean, Jonathan Ogden started his

879
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 4: career guard. He's six y nine, you know, Yes, that's

880
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:37,320
Speaker 4: a big guard.

881
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 3: Uh. Here's a good one from Josiah With all the

882
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 3: wide receiver movement that we've seen in the last couple

883
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 3: of weeks, is that sound the alarm bells for what

884
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 3: NFL teams think of this wide receiver draft class. We've

885
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 3: seen trades for Water for Pittman, for Dj Moore. We've

886
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 3: seen Mike Evans, Alec Pierce, Romeo Dobbs, Wandel Robinson all

887
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 3: signed for good money, George Pickens franchise tagged. What does

888
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 3: that mean for how this team teams view the upcoming

889
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 3: draft class. That's a great question, but that.

890
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 4: I don't have a great answer to because I think,

891
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 4: and I believe it wholeheartedly that the league, myself, draft knicks,

892
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 4: people in the know, think this is a very good

893
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 4: receiver class that you can get a lot, not in

894
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 4: the top ten, but maybe not the upper upper But

895
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,879
Speaker 4: the Bills weren't gonna get that guy anyway, Steelers weren't

896
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 4: going to get that guy in we get that guy,

897
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 4: right who did Wadles get traded to Denver? Wasn't going

898
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 4: to get that guy. The teams that traded for these

899
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 4: dudes were not getting the superstar draft pick anyway. So

900
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 4: I do think there's a lot of receivers from like

901
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 4: where the Steelers pick until the end of the third round,

902
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 4: they'll be plentiful, and there usually is. But I also

903
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 4: think to receive the nature of the receiver position, they

904
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 4: changed teams more than the others. Yeah. Yeah, at the

905
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 4: trade deadline, the trade deadline, there's always that move, you know.

906
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,800
Speaker 4: So I just think receivers move around a lot. And

907
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 4: I know that's kind of a dumb answer, but I

908
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 4: think that's kind of true. It is, certainly is it's

909
00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:08,720
Speaker 4: a really dumb answer.

910
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 5: No, I mean, dummy checker tweets us.

911
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 3: It says, I know, we won't know everyone's roles and

912
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 3: exactly how they'll be used until we see it. But

913
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 3: it seems like the Steelers have invested more and other

914
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 3: teams the other teams and the Steelers have it started

915
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 3: to invest more in interchangeable pieces in the secondary. Oh yeah,

916
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 3: guys that can play multiple roles. Does that speak to

917
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 3: how the Steelers will want to play schematically?

918
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean a perfect example is even today when

919
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,879
Speaker 4: Max and Mike and I did a mock we used

920
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 4: Pro Football Focuses mock draft simulator or whatever, and our

921
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 4: last pick in the third round was Kilgore. From South

922
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 4: Carolina and he's listed as a cornerback. And I've drafted

923
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 4: him before and threw it out on Twitter and people

924
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 4: are like, well, they're loaded a corner back. He's really

925
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 4: just a defensive back, yes, and maxually said that, Well

926
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 4: at the end of the video, he's like, let's just

927
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 4: call him a defensive back because we were drafting him

928
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,320
Speaker 4: as a safety knowing he could be a big slot.

929
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 4: He's not going to be revis playing man coverage outside

930
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 4: the numbers. That's not what he is. He's just a

931
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 4: defensive back. And yes, there's way more of them, whether

932
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 4: it's Hamilton and Mui and Derwin that are two hundred

933
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 4: and twenty pounds or if it's Branch and Peetree that

934
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 4: are one hundred and ninety five pounds. You know, do

935
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 4: it all, do it all the more, the more you can.

936
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 4: That might be Ramsey, Yeah, I mean I think they

937
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 4: had that in mind for sure. Yes, yeah, no.

938
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 5: Doubt, certainly last year when they made that trade then,

939
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 5: and they.

940
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 4: May draft another one. They may draft a Kilgore that

941
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 4: looks like a corner, but I mean, he's not going

942
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 4: to look like Joey Poor Junior. Joey Poor juniors. Not

943
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 4: that guy, he's a corner.

944
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,879
Speaker 5: Yes, we got about ninety seconds left.

945
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 3: Last one here from today, we'll go to Brad Brad tweets.

946
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 3: Do general managers have a return on investment type table

947
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 3: for positions to evaluate draft versus free agency? For an example,

948
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 3: wide receivers, you know, seem to peak right at the

949
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,560
Speaker 3: end of their rookie deals, after you know, a year

950
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 3: or two in the league. Does that make you think

951
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 3: that you would draft wide out hire every year, you know,

952
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,240
Speaker 3: as opposed to offensive linemen that might peak a little

953
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 3: bit later in their careers and then you were willing

954
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 3: to spend more on them when they start to hit

955
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 3: that free agency point, whereas you know a lot of

956
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 3: times wide receivers can hit their late twenties and start

957
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,400
Speaker 3: to decline when they lose a half step. So I

958
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 3: get what you're saying, like a kind of valuation on

959
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,959
Speaker 3: here's what we want to attack most in the draft,

960
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 3: Here's what we want to attack most in free agency.

961
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 5: Here's when those positions peak and decline.

962
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, they're all aware. The short answer is yes.

963
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 4: A longer answer is a lot of these teams don't

964
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,919
Speaker 4: have five year window to pick their quarterback. That's what's

965
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 4: available this offseason to best fill our needs for this

966
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 4: year and maybe next because I may not be here

967
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 4: in three years and I need to win now. But yes,

968
00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 4: I mean, like you mentioned Vance McDonald lower before he

969
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 4: sat down with Dale and I had OTAs right after

970
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 4: he got drafted, and I mentioned to him there's been

971
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 4: a lot The conversation I had to him was there's

972
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,359
Speaker 4: been a lot of data lately that twenty seven's about

973
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 4: the age that tight ends started to hit their piece.

974
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 4: You're like twenty six and a half, Vance, And I

975
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,240
Speaker 4: bet the Steelers were aware of that, and he didn't

976
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 4: know that. He said, boy, that makes a ton of sense.

977
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,560
Speaker 4: He's like, I bet that's dead on because the game

978
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 4: has slowed down. For me, I understand it better. I'm

979
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 4: definitely a way better player than I was three years ago,

980
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 4: and I feel like I am hitting my stride now.

981
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 4: He probably wouldn't say now, I'm terrible now I stink.

982
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 4: Welcome to Pittsburgh, But you know what I mean.

983
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 3: Yes, that's a good story to close this thing down

984
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 3: for the day. We got a good one from t mec.

985
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 3: How would you rank you doing the Steelers' roster breakdowns,

986
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 3: How would you rank the roster compared to the three

987
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 3: other teams in the division as they are today.

988
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,120
Speaker 5: Maybe that's something we could take a look at tomorrow.

989
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 4: We'll have to know them quite as well, but we

990
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 4: could do something similar. Yeah. Right, it's a good question though.
