Oh I didn't say his name. But I was 31 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: the first person to text you that that Twitter picture 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: today when it came out. Yeah, you were the first person. Yeah, 33 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: first of how many? Like five? 34 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 2: Yeah? 35 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 3: When you say first, that means multiple people hit their 36 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 3: keyboard to make sure you didn't met it. 37 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: I got it from you, I got it from Frostburg. 38 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: I got it from a couple of my friends, my my, 39 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: my wife's aunt's brother. They're at the same age. It's 40 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: basically like like my brother. Yeah, so I was like, 41 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: as soon as I got a few, I'm like, oh, 42 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: this is not going to be the only time I 43 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: get Nope, there was against against again. Now, to be fair, 44 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn at the combine, Jets head coach looked like 45 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: he might have been sleeping watching players work out eyes. 46 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: I want to believe that he was just looking down 47 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: at his phone. And then looked up. Because if you're 48 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: sleeping and you wake up, I don't know that you 49 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: wake up that cleanly. Usually, if I'm falling asleep in 50 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: a situation like that, my head bob's not No, I'm up, 51 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm up. I'm up.

I mean, wouldn't be the last guy to 54 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: fall asleep at the combine. I'm sure a lot of 55 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: coaches aren't even there, so you know there's that. But yeah, no, 56 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: what you want to give him credit for showing up? 57 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: Is that what you're doing? 58 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 3: Because guys are like, hey, we're so confident in the 59 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 3: way we execute things, we don't need to send physical 60 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 3: bodies here. But because he showed up, yeah, hey, falling asleep, 61 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 3: he gets credit. 62 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: Maybe, Hey, at least I was there, but you fell asleep.

All of these things 71 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 3: could potentially be explained away, except you know, as they say, 72 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: the internet and the video will last forever. 73 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: And and you know and look and to tell you 74 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: about how crazy the NFLPA report cards are that came 75 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: out today, we found out the Dolphins are voted the 76 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: best organization in the NFL by players for what they do. 77 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: Uh from uh the condition of the field to locker 78 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: rooms to the cafeteria. Steelers are the worst individual rankings. 79 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn got an as as a coach. He did, 80 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, I did. This goes to show you, like, man, 81 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: I'd take an F as a head coach if we 82 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: could go fourteen and thirty and an a minus if 83 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: we go three and four. 84 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: He's a really likable guy. 85 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: He's likable.

That's 91 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: not the point. The point is, like anything in this world, 92 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: and still someone puts in and legislates a rule whereby 93 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 3: you have to put money in job. Look at what 94 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 3: we're looking at in Major League Baseball. What did the 95 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 3: Yankees spend of the revenue they earned last year? Less 96 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 3: than fifty percent of it went back on the field. 97 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: Oh right, right, So what you're saying is then instead 98 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: of being one of those old iron fisted despot rulers 99 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: that that treat everybody bad, you're more the owner of 100 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,919 Speaker 1: the restaurant, who I can keep these is terrible And 101 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: we can talk about Furman in the track. 102 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: That but i'd be cooking your pasta until somebody finds out. 103 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: But once you give me that f grade, then I'll 104 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: change everything. But if you don't give me a bad grade, 105 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna have this this unsafe, unsanitary environment and 106 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: serve food to everybody.

Now maybe he's 174 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: a top seven pick. 175 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 3: Right Like, he's also a guy did you watch his 176 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 3: basketball footage? He might be able to play as the 177 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 3: seventh man on a lot of these NBA teams. 178 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you're seeing some players move up in the 179 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: first round, and these are players that you're somewhat familiar 180 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: with You've seen them in mock drafts. But there are 181 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: some players and everybody's looking for quarterbacks. Give you three 182 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: quarterbacks right now that are going to wind up improving 183 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: their status immensely in the combine and talking themselves into 184 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: the conversation where you're taking them in the first three 185 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 1: rounds and maybe these are quarterbacks that you can potentially 186 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: win with. Okay, again, everybody's looking for quarterbacks, right, every 187 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: team is going to the combine going I want to 188 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: be able to find some guys to say yes to. Right, 189 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: Normally it's well, I want to rule guys out because 190 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: there's all these quarterbacks, these seven guy how do I 191 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: parse it out between these five guys who were all 192 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: really good? Five guys? How do I parse it out 193 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: between these five guys who were all really good? I 194 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: got to be able to say no. Now, it's I 195 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: need somebody to wow me. Somebody's got to do it. 196 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: There's gonna be three guys to do it. And the 197 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: first guy, so we mentioned him very briefly at the 198 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: end of the show last night, is Drew Aller. Right. Remember, 199 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: coming into last year, his last year with Penn State, 200 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: he was gonna be a first round pick. But Penn 201 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: State was terrible. James Franklin got fired, Aler got hurt 202 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: midway through the season, Penn State never recovered and we 203 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: forgot about him. But instead of coming back to school, 204 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: he goes to the NFL and he's gonna meet with teams. 205 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: They see him throw, he's got he's got a great 206 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,599 Speaker 1: fast twitch arm. You know, you see some of his 207 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: highlights on social media. Remember, people are gonna remember how 208 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: good he was and why they thought he was such 209 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: a good quarterback to begin with. And he's someone that's 210 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: gonna talk his way in into the top three rounds 211 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: and get taken as a quarterback of the future by somebody, 212 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: because again, people are gonna remember how much they liked him. 213 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: His decision to go to the Combine and be there 214 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 1: for everybody, great decision for him. 215 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, he go back to what he was starting the 216 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,199 Speaker 3: campaign and all those expectations. Last game he played in 217 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 3: was that game against Northwestern right and we look at 218 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 3: the injury comes in. But eight touchdowns, three picks, completing 219 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 3: about two thirds of his past attempts attempts per toss 220 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 3: down the field, worked it well, and he goes back 221 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 3: to the body of the old school quarterback, right to 222 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 3: the six or five guy that you can put in 223 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 3: between the tackles, and he's going to stand and throw 224 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 3: and be tall in the pocket. What's curious is if 225 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 3: last year's signaled to change in reaching for a quarterback 226 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 3: or not, right, because we only had five drafted in 227 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 3: the first three rounds, which is uncanny. Normally it's the 228 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 3: act of desperation at the back of the first round 229 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 3: where we get a bevy of guys, even if maybe 230 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: they don't grade out quite so well. But Alers certainly 231 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 3: had the pedigree. Curious that he didn't go back to school. 232 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 3: Plenty of opportunities to go get you something another six 233 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 3: to eight million dollars somewhere, but I like that resolve 234 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 3: might serve him well, showing he's got a chip on 235 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 3: his shoulder. 236 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: Now. The second guy, someone we talked about about a 237 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: month and a half ago, is Carson Beck. Right now, 238 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: I made the last image you have of Carson Beck 239 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: as that really bad interception. Yeah, the National Championship game, right, 240 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: which stinks. But honestly, we talked about the night it happened. 241 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: The receiver's got to turn around, right, I mean I 242 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: don't know how you're not turned around there. That's one 243 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: of those interceptions that goes on the receiver rather than 244 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: the quarterback, because if he turns around, maybe he gets 245 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: the ball, but maybe at least he breaks it up 246 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: and it's not an easy interception that ends the game. 247 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: But Carson Beck is someone who seeing him play last year, hey, 248 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: remember why you get yet twelve years in college football 249 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: sits conning with a lot of experience. But he is 250 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: solid his leadership experience, he is trustworthy. Teams are going 251 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: to see him and go, yeah, this is a solid guy. 252 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 1: And maybe he's not. Maybe he's not a Sam Donald 253 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: as far as overall talent coming out of school, but 254 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: a lot of the makeup of Carson Beck and Sam 255 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: Donald is very similar. So yeah, he's someone we can 256 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: take a flyer on or be a potential quarterback of 257 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: the future that because of his experience level and maturity. Hey, 258 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: maybe if things go poorly this year, he winds up 259 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: starting a bunch of games for us at the end. 260 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: He's also going to jump into the top half of 261 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: the drug. Yeah. 262 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: I think what it comes down to with him is 263 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: you talk about experiences. He's seen everything at this point, right, 264 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 3: and Tom Brady always the famous line of you know, 265 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 3: I know the answers to the test because I've seen 266 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 3: so much. It's the complete opposite of what we were 267 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 3: talking about last hour. When you look at Anthony Richardson, 268 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 3: when he came into the league, he flashed, had very exciting, 269 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 3: big splash plays as a passer, as a runner, like, 270 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 3: all right, if we can just get him up to speed, well, 271 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 3: you had to go from zero to ninety like you 272 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 3: were entering the Autobaond really fast. Whereas Carson Beck, he's 273 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 3: played in a lot of big games, in a lot 274 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 3: of big moments, big arm goes down field, good touchdown 275 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: to interception ratio. Yeah, all of that bodes well. Particularly, 276 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess we tied also to what we're 277 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 3: looking at in college athletics, both football and basketball. You 278 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 3: want a guy that's seen stuff. Women that have been 279 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 3: around and they're the fourth or fifty year players play 280 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 3: out so much bigger and better the way the game 281 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 3: has evolved, and having that experience, you go into a 282 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 3: locker room, you've seen enough and that should translate that 283 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 3: much easier. 284 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: Now. The last guy is someone who is a little 285 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: bit more polarizing, but this is what the combine is for. 286 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: It's there for you to improve your draft stick. That's 287 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: why we're doing this topic. Right, Who's going to improve 288 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: their draft stock? Right? Drew Aller by throwing the football interviews. 289 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: Carson Beck, seeing a continuation of the maturation problem, says 290 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: he had and diego Pavia. We know he's got the talent. 291 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: His intangibles will bowl teams over. A fan base will 292 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: get incredibly excited about him. He's gonna be a riser 293 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: and and yes, they're a little bit more red flags 294 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: as far as hey can his game translate to the 295 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: next level because you're you always are worried about us. 296 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 1: Some guys draft a little bit lower, their games will translate. 297 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: But he is gonna come in and impress teams immensely, 298 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: and they're gonna go, are we getting somebody really special 299 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: here in Pavia? I mean, are we? Are? 300 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: We? 301 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: Are we crazy that that we don't think he's he's 302 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: super talented and as talented as as all the other 303 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in college football last year. Like that, he's gonna 304 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: have teams walking away going, I don't know, man, maybe 305 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: he's our guy. Maybe this is our guy? Uh, there's 306 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: your three guys right there. They're gonna jump up and 307 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: go in the top three rounds of the draft. Aler 308 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: Carson back Diego, Pavi. 309 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: Look at you standing up for the short kings of 310 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: the world. Yeah, I just I'm five nine. I kind 311 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: of have to, right, So, I mean, I know I'm 312 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 3: a I'm a little bit u slighter than that. 313 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: They like you standing up for billionaires when it comes 314 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: to the NFL report card, But I stand up for 315 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: I stand up for you. 316 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: That's how'll go millionaires billionaires? What's what's another zero between friends? 317 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 5: Uh? 318 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 3: Look all all that with with Pavia there there's a 319 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 3: lot to like about him. There's some maturity issues. Uh. 320 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 3: And not the fact, not the mention, the fact that 321 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 3: guys like you can go to the positive side where 322 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: you've got a guy like Drew Brees, first ballot, Hall 323 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 3: of Fame, no chance, he's even six feet tall. Cool. Uh, 324 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: but you've got the all right, we might see some 325 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 3: explosive splash plays, but can we get it consistently? The 326 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 3: Kyler Murray side of things comes the other way. And 327 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 3: I don't know that the post Heisman ceremony thing really 328 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 3: would turn me off, You would really have to sell 329 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: me hard to convince me to bring him into a 330 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: locker room. 331 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: I think you know that that's something that's a that's 332 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: a maturity thing obviously. And yes, you think being a 333 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: little bit older, he wouldn't do something like that, but 334 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: he was upset Heisman trophy. I think that's something you 335 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: can move past. I mean, like, and you're gonna sit 336 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: and meet with him, and and and and you're you're 337 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: gonna understand right away. Okay. And maybe he's not everybody's 338 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: cup of tea, but he's gonna be a lot of teams. 339 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: Cup of team. 340 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: Also showed me he was a guy that may not 341 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 3: have been too confident of where he stood in the 342 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 3: world because he was petitioning for another year of college eligibility. Yeah, 343 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 3: that one I raised my hand. I mean, look, go 344 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 3: cash check, no question about it. 345 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: Well, And and that's the thing is that, you know, 346 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: when we talk about those guys, I think there's a 347 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: difference now. If it was the old days, meaning before 348 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: nil and guys were trying to play an extra year 349 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: of college football, I would get it because like, boy 350 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: that you don't want to go to the NFL really, 351 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: you know, well, I want to improve my draft stock. 352 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: I want to be able to get back. Okay, I 353 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: get that, right. If you think you're a fourth round pick, 354 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: you want to be a second round pick. I get that. 355 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: But the part is, you know guys like like Beck 356 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: and Pavia. Now these guys are gonna go in the 357 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: third round or whatever round it is. They're gonna make 358 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: more money, and this way they're thinking, this might be 359 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: the last pay day I ever really get. Am I 360 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: gonna get my want to think I get my chance, 361 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: but it's an unknown. So I could go to the NFL, well, 362 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: not nearly get paid. I'll get ten million dollars coming 363 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: back and playing one more year of college football. It's 364 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: it's why Dante Moore, we say, dude, what are you doing? 365 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: It's the exact opposite you. You turned down fifty million 366 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: dollars guaranteed for ten million dollars for the other guys. 367 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: It's like, I'm getting ten million dollars and where I'm 368 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: not gonna I'm not gonna get that because I'm getting 369 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: drafted so much later in the draft. So would I 370 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: kind of get that from Pavia? I can I can 371 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: overlook or at least make sure I can get I 372 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: can be okay with some of the things regarding him. Yeah. 373 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 3: No, I mean, look, I petitioned for it. If I 374 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 3: was gonna be guaranteed another six to eight million, and 375 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 3: I can hang around a college campus and his Carson 376 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 3: Beck said he wasn't going to class anyway. So I mean, 377 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: you have that in your back pocket. You got practice 378 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 3: for what twenty hours a week, some film review.

But it's the idea 428 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 3: of that is part of who you are. You identify 429 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 3: with the long storied career and the cartoon figure that 430 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 3: Chris Berman has become. So putting an end to it 431 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 3: is tough. 432 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 6: And if I go to twenty twenty nine, it will 433 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 6: be fifty years with ESPN, I'll find it could be 434 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 6: fifty years to leave what I LOVERDJ. 435 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 3: Not bad, not bad.

Fifty. I 445 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: can't imagine fifty years like he was on the air 446 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 1: when ESPN started in nineteen seventy nine, and he's going 447 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: to go another three years and be fifty years at ESPN. 448 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Fifty years there. I can't imagine that. I really can't. 449 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: That's a that's a throwback to people who would say, yeah, 450 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: they're a tiger, they're eighteen years old and they went 451 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: to go Like I know people in my wife's family 452 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: that they were eighteen, graduated high school, went to work 453 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: at one of the big three companies, whether it's General 454 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: Motors or whatever it was, and worked there for forty 455 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: years and then left and they were either on the 456 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: assembly line for forty years and did the same job 457 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: for forty years, like yep, did it, and I got 458 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,199 Speaker 1: my pension, I'm out and I'm like forty years Like 459 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: that's insane. To me to do to be in the 460 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: same place, like to be able to stay there and 461 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: be happy in one place for forty years or fifty years. 462 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: For Berman doing this as long as. 463 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 3: He has no But that's said right. The cyclicality of 464 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 3: the business helps keep you saying right because right as 465 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 3: you get tired of talking about the defensive ineptitude of 466 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 3: the Lakers, they get eliminated from the playoffs and we 467 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 3: move on to other teams. When you're tired of talking 468 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 3: about I don't know, insert NFL team like you, I 469 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 3: mean with the New York Football Jets, when you're done 470 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: with the year, until your guys sleeping at the combine, 471 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 3: you were able to put them away for a little while. 472 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but now you know the Jets are making trade. Yeah. 473 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: I mean, look, today was a big day because we 474 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 1: found out a couple of big things in the NFL draft. Right, 475 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: we know that Fernanda Mendoza is going number one overall. 476 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I know Raiders, but he's going number one overall. 477 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 1: So now the big question is starting to segue into 478 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: who's going at number two. And after the Jets make 479 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: that trade today, they trade Jermaine Johnson, defensive end to 480 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 1: the Titans. He's reunited with Robert Salah. Hey, great, Robert, 481 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: you go back and revisit the fact that you were 482 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: able to underachieve with the same players in Tennessee that 483 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 1: you did with the Jets. Congratulations. Yes, they get they 484 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: get back a player who's gonna play the three for 485 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: them to and Andre Sweat. It's a great trade for the 486 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: Jets because they free up almost twelve million dollars in 487 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: money they can use in free agency. It's a great 488 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: trade for them. They both great out to be the 489 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: same kind of player. Jermaine Johnson flashed one year and 490 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 1: it was three years ago. So great trade. Great, great 491 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 1: trade for the Jets. But what this does is it 492 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: brings the number two overall pick into focus. And I'll 493 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: tell you it's one of two guys you're gonna go 494 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: number two overall, but neither of them are the guy 495 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: I would take at number two. Okay, number two overall 496 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: is either going to be rvel Reee, who you've heard 497 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 1: out of Ohio State been compared to Micah Parsons, great 498 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: great projected player in the NFL, projects to be a 499 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: multi pro Bowl player, or it's gonna be David Bailey 500 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: from Texas Tech, who had a huge day at the Combine. 501 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: He's another edge rusher, and the Jets trading away Jermaine Johnson, 502 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: So this is their big need. Aaron Glens calling the defense. 503 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna want a guy in there. You know, they 504 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: have a guy on the other side in Will McDonald, 505 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: but you know he's he's sort of up and down. 506 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: They're gonna want who can we build our defense around. 507 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: So it's either going to be Reese or David Bailey. 508 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: I can one hundred percent tell you that's what it's 509 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,120 Speaker 1: gonna be for the Jets. I now, maybe they're they're 510 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna parse things out. They've already interviewed Arville Reese. 511 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: In a quick interview with him, he talked about how, yeah, 512 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: the Jets were real in depth with me. They threw 513 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: up a bunch of different defenses and wanted me to 514 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: break it down for them. So, but the way Bailey 515 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: is dominated physically, I mean yeah, I mean it's either 516 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: gonna be him or Reese going at number two. The 517 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: guy I would take at number two is yeah, I 518 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: would take in Gotham and his Tyrannosaurus Rex arms. Yeah, no, sorry, yeah, hey. 519 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty and seven and eight inch, which is under 520 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 3: the thirty three uh and uh yeah and an eighth 521 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 3: or higher that they want. Yeah, I get that. 522 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: Remember we talked about like Kenny picking that small hands 523 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: back up quarterback. You know you got Bane in this 524 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: and his small arms. 525 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, when we just watched will Gamble have a 526 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 3: nice year until he didn't? 527 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: Sure, Yes, that was great playing right up until the 528 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: time when you stunk. But with the way Bailey and 529 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: Reese are, one of them is going number two overall. 530 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: Now could the next guy slip down to number three? 531 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: This is where certain things get into play. But you're 532 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: talking about Okay, we now know where number one and 533 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: most likely number two is going to be. But the 534 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: guy I would take at number two, and I've been 535 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: saying it about him for a year, did an interview 536 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: today and he talked about how he believes he's the 537 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: best defensive player in the draft. Let's listen to Ohio 538 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: State superstar Caleb Downs. 539 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 7: At the end of the day, it's who's the best defender. 540 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 7: I mean, it's not like really positional value. It's who 541 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 7: affects the game. And if you affect the game in 542 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 7: a lot of ways. That's what's most important. Yeah, I 543 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 7: mean I feel confident every time I step on the field. 544 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 7: So if I would say that I walked on the 545 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 7: field and thought anybody would be was better than me, yeah, 546 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 7: that's not true. 547 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: All right. I don't get why we're not talking and 548 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: and a lot of analysts don't like him more as 549 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: the number two overall pick in the draft, I've said 550 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: it free, You're getting Caleb Downs. You're getting the best 551 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 1: defensive player in college football. You're getting the set, You're 552 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: getting the best player in the draft. Not just the best, 553 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: but you're getting the best player in the draft in 554 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: Caleb Downs. Getting him is like getting Rod Woodson. That's 555 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: how good he is. He's great near the line of scrimmage, right, 556 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: he is aggressive, he is he makes a lot of tackles. 557 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: He's good in past coverage, right he is. He is 558 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: terrific everywhere. His leadership, he's got great bursts. I've seen 559 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: him play a ton like this is the guy, man, 560 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: this is a guy that you're gonna build your team 561 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: around this guy. If I'm Aaron Glenn, I'm going he 562 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: is my alter ego on the field. I mean, sometimes 563 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 1: if the only thing about him is that he is 564 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 1: too aggressive. Guess what, man, you could teach that, right, 565 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: because that's the one big thing I've heard analysts he 566 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: might be a little too aggressive. Guess what you could 567 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,880 Speaker 1: teach that. That's fine, you can when you can't teach 568 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: us everything this guy can do. He is so good 569 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: and and for all of the talking, well, the last 570 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: time the Jets took a safety this high with Jamal Adams, 571 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: that worked out pretty good. Guy was all pro. They 572 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: traded him, got two first round picks. They did pretty 573 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: well in that. But Caleb Downs is even a better player. 574 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: This is the best defensive player. This is the best 575 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: player in the draft. And I don't know why people 576 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: are talking about him as well. After the first two 577 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: guys off the board are for Nano Mendoza and Caleb Downs. 578 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 1: This is where you're sitting and this is no slight 579 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: to these other guys. But Caleb Downs, I don't know. 580 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: You're really searching for something to nitpick to say this 581 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,959 Speaker 1: guy isn't great. I've seen him play for years. He 582 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: is great. His anticipatory plays are fantastic. You know where 583 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 1: he is every and it doesn't matter. You know where 584 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: he is on the field and he still goes over 585 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: and make plays. I mean, he's the guy I would 586 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: take it number two and I'm not looking back. 587 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you said it all as soon as 588 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 3: you got to the term superstar. You don't normally lay 589 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 3: it and lay that on college guys. And unless you 590 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 3: love him, even in a Michigan household, good luck with 591 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 3: that ninth and Heisman voting this last year. I like 592 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 3: the fact that in his answer he addressed the idea 593 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 3: of position scarcity and juice, going, hey, you want an 594 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 3: impact player here, I am. I would say I understand 595 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 3: the logic to the other two when you're talking about 596 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 3: the front seven, whether you can use them at the edge, 597 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 3: and certainly running top notch forty yard dash times certainly helps. 598 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 3: Not that life is a straight line in the National 599 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 3: Football League, but certainly that push off the edge and 600 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 3: how you may use Reese or Bailey comes in to 601 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 3: play right side the sideline to sideline, particularly as more 602 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 3: and more teams use their running backs in the screen game. 603 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 3: I understand where fortifying the front seven might be that 604 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 3: point of emphasis. 605 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I get that that's the sexy thing. I understand, right, 606 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: But that's a position I don't like it right now, 607 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: but that's a position, and I get that's a position 608 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: that you can fortify in free agency if you want to. Now, 609 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm not saying these guys don't project to be great players, sure, 610 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: but I mean Caleb Downs could be an all time 611 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: great player. This guy could be an all time great player. 612 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: And I don't see I don't see why teams are saying, yeah, 613 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 1: I don't know about it. I mean, really, over aggressiveness 614 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 1: is your thing with him, all the other boxes that 615 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: he checks, how intelligent he is, every his leadership, making plays, 616 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: sniffing out plays. See, I think a lot of his 617 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: aggressives is because he knows where the ball's going. He's 618 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: one of those rare guys that I know where the 619 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: ball's gonna be and I'm gonna get there right. I 620 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: think that's where you see a little bit over I 621 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: haven't seen one play in his college career where afterwards 622 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: you go, oh wow. And the reason this play goes 623 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: for thirty five yards is Caleb Downs is so far 624 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: out of position. I've not seen that never happen once. 625 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 3: Not one to play devil's advocate that he knows he 626 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 3: can be over aggressive because he's got a unit around 627 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 3: him that's gonna pick up. 628 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: Man. 629 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,479 Speaker 3: Again, I'm not dismissing his attitude. I'm just you know, 630 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 3: the counter would be that is that you're in a 631 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 3: unit where you're like, hey, if if I leave my 632 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 3: spot and I push a little hard to this edge, 633 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 3: I know I've got help. Whereas you go to the 634 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 3: National FOOTBA League, maybe maybe in a team scheme, you 635 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 3: don't and so that that could become a detriment to you. Again, 636 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 3: I watched what you did. I mean, I'm a child 637 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 3: of the Big ten, so I've seen plenty of his 638 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 3: work and him dominating games and affecting play. So I 639 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 3: tend to agree with you. But he goes back to 640 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 3: the old tap or pat system, depending on which way 641 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 3: you want to go. I need a protector, I need 642 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:39,959 Speaker 3: an attacker, I need a thrower. 643 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: There we go exit. How about a Fresca exit swollen dome. 644 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: The Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon 645 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: time not to find out what's trending in the wide 646 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: world of sports. So someone who's been called the Caleb 647 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: Downs of Fox Sports Radio, all right, she sometimes gets 648 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: a little aggressive when there's pizza. It's Monty Belogna a little. 649 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 8: That's putting it lightly. You know what I'm saying. Don't 650 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 8: talk to pizza. 651 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: Just send Monty on the blitz. She's gonna go get 652 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: the pizza anyway. Just send her on a blitz.

That's 778 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: what's most important. 779 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 3: You still got teeth? 780 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's me, Like I feel like, okay, what's 781 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 1: more important be able to hit a baseball open a 782 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: bag of chips, I would say, I'm finding a way 783 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: to open that bag of chips. I'm finding a way 784 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: to do that. That's really what's most important. I'm finding 785 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 1: a way to make that happen. 786 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 3: So if he can't open a bag of chips, I mean, 787 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 3: how far off are we are We're gonna hit the 788 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 3: under on their win total?

I mean absolutely tanked any expectations now. 791 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: You know. And for the Yankees, it's just been dealing 792 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: with stuff like this with him basically since they got 793 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: him in a trade in twenty eighteen. He's He's only 794 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: played more than one hundred and thirty five games twice 795 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: in his Yankee career, right, Like, this is a guy 796 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: that started out with the Marlins. He was terrific, still 797 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: had a problem staying healthy, but in his mid twenties, 798 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: this guy comes off of fifty nine and one thirty 799 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: season for the Marlins, and Derek Jeter basically gifts him 800 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: to the Yankees. And I remember at the time it was, hey, man, 801 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: is he still working for the Yankees. It's like Jerry 802 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: West when he got pau Gasol to the Lakers, Like 803 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,240 Speaker 1: is he still working for the Lakers, Like this is amazing, 804 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: But all he's been for the Yankees is he's really 805 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: had just you could say, one or two years where 806 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: you could say he was close to being the guy 807 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 1: he was, and it hasn't been in a long time 808 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,839 Speaker 1: like he is.

Like, I mean, 820 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: if he'd been able to stay healthy, would he be 821 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,720 Speaker 1: able to approach right he's got four hundred and fifty 822 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: home runs right now, we'd say he might have an 823 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: outside shot at at you know, at over six hundred. Yeah, 824 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, if he was. If he was still he 825 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:20,879 Speaker 1: might have one hundred more home runs if he could 826 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 1: stay healthier. You're talking about a guy that'd be going, Hey, 827 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: this guy is a first ballot Hall of Fame and 828 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 1: we're comparing his career to Miguel Cabrera, who's the best 829 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: hitter we've seen in the last twenty five years, what 830 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: he's able to do in his prime. But I look 831 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: at John Carlos Stanton and I just go, man, he 832 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: just couldn't stay healthy, and he couldn't contribute, and he 833 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: couldn't be that guy. And it's more it's going to 834 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: be at the end of his career going, man, what 835 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: he could have done? Right. That's how we're going to 836 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 1: look at at John Carlos Stan's. 837 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 3: I remember how young he came into the league and 838 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 3: the expectation huge. It's hard to believe it's already been 839 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 3: ninth This is his ninth year with the Yankees coming up. 840 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 3: He's got two years left before club option in twenty 841 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 3: twenty eight. Fortunately for the Yankees, it's not as oppressive 842 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 3: a contract. You say thirty million, Well go back a 843 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 3: couple of years. That tax was a lot higher on 844 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 3: a per game basis, So just just a tough run, 845 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 3: because he was one of those guys where we're gonna 846 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 3: be talking about all time greats. Now he's twentieth in 847 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,959 Speaker 3: active war behind de gram Man. 848 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you look at the last few years ago. Wow, 849 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: if only he had been able to stay healthy, what 850 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: he could have done.
