Speaker 1: we're gonna go through your top five list which has

30
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 1: hit the press. So we're gonna rip through every position.

31
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,680

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: five at every position. So I'm gonna I'm gonna when

34
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 1: we get to that point, Buck, I'm gonna make sure

35
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: after every position group I give out your Twitter handles.

36
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: It has it hasn't been crazy. I haven't gotten anything.

37
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: I can't know. I haven't gotten much of anything like

38
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: um Everyone has been pretty cool with the quarterbacks, which

39
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: I thought maybe that would have a little bit with

40
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: Calumary second and no one chimed in on that the

41
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: pass rush is always solid. I mean, I think what

42
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: I try to do is just um, I took the

43
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: three with out and I just tried to put it

44
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: right right in the fairway, just in the fairway. Didn't

45
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: take the driver. I wasn't trying to knock it all

46
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: the way out. But you slip. This is what you did.

47
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: You kind of like you just like slipped into the pool.

48
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: There was no cannonballs off the high dive with this list. Yeah,

49
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: nothing nothing crazy, even though I did see one of

50
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: your tweets about a corner. I kind of want to

51
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: find out more about. He's a good player, big, big

52
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: physical kid. We'll get into your your top five lists,

53
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: uh in a minute. Gonna go through that news as

54
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: I mentioned, but I do want to start off by

55
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: congratulating my partner here in Bucky Brooks, who has added

56
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: some new duties, uh to his already existing duties. Yeah,

57
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: different dudes, different ladies and gentlemen. We have a head coach,

58
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: Phillip folks in the man um like one. Thanks for

59
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: congratulating that. That really means a lot, Like we've talked

60
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: about it. I've been doing this high school coaching thing

61
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: for about ten years. Uh. I spent ten years at

62
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks. UH. It's the

63
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: home of Justin Fargas. It's probably the most distinguished player

64
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: to come out of there. UH played there years ago.

65
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: But last season I had opportunity to offense coordinated and

66
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: just went my appetite to want to do more. So

67
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: this year, I had an opportunity UH to interview at

68
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: Granada Hills Charter, which is John always alma mater. In fact,

69
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: the stadium is named after the Broncos legend. And so

70
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: we're going to have an opportunity to kind of build

71
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: it up and see if we can bring it back

72
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: to prominence in the city. So it's it's a big challenge.

73
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: I'm excited about the challenge because they're um some things

74
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: that we're trying to do to put together to kind

75
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: of kind of build a community and really kind of

76
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: grow the program. But I'm really really excited to have

77
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 1: an opportunity to kind of deal with these young people. UH.

78
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: They were excited when we met yesterday. And so I

79
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: can't get to work, man, I can't. I can't wait

80
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: to get to work and just kind of start having fun,

81
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: like just dealing with a different group of guys, and

82
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: I've got a chance. I've mentioned this on here before,

83
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: but I've been fortunate enough to see Bucky in his

84
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: environment up at these at these Nike camps, and dude,

85
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: you are so good with these high school kids. Um,

86
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: so you're not allowed to do it because I'm pretty

87
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: sure it's illegal. So I'm just gonna do it for you.

88
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: Bucky didn't ask me to do this, But if you

89
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: if you live anywhere in the high school and your

90
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: kid can play, sending him with Bucky, because trust me,

91
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: you're not gonna find anybody that's going to be better

92
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: in developing, developing the talent as well as as as

93
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: taking care of your kids. Because Bucky's got a great heart.

94
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: He's not doing this for the money, trust me, He's

95
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: doing this because for sure, it wants to be around it. Man,

96
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: It's gonna be great. I can't wait to uh, I

97
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: can't wait to get my first invitation to come up

98
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: there to be a guest speaker before one of your games.

99
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: For sure, sure, we can put you behind the bagpipes.

100
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: You know what We're to hide the bagpipes. You've got

101
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: some bagpipes and change traditionally may come out behind the

102
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: bagpipes a little different different. I like that. But by

103
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: the way, so there's some I I tweeted out of

104
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: congratulations on Twitter. Um, and there's some folks that think

105
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: that this means that, you know, you're no longer on

106
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: the pod, you're no longer on NFL network. Man, can

107
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: you clear that stuff? No, no no, no, i' it's just

108
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: it's just it's just like coaching at the rec center,

109
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's just just another little thing. We're just

110
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: just having a little fun. But there's a little tradition.

111
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: But no subtraction. No subtraction. Yeah, just added add a

112
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: little bit. We're gonna have a little fun. But now

113
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 1: everything with NFL media is great. I'm looking forward to

114
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: doing more stuff. Um obviously, I mean we've been podcasting,

115
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: doing TV, doing everything that we've been able to do.

116
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: So now I'm really excited to kind of continue to

117
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: do all the things while also kind of dibbling and

118
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: dabbling a little in coaching. Now there you go, there's

119
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: a update on what's going on here with Buck. All right,

120
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: let's start here. Joe Flacco to the Broncos. We predicted

121
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: this uh months ago. Buck We talked about this, and

122
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 1: to me, it was the opposite theory. You know, you

123
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: always coach wise, quarterback wise, you go find the opposite

124
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: of what you just had if it didn't work out.

125
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: So you had case Keenum undersize, can move around a

126
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: little bit, doesn't have a huge arm, So you go

127
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: get the six foot six pocket passer um, which, by

128
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: the way, has kind of been that's been John Elway,

129
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: That's what he's he's traditionally wanted. Now this is the

130
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: third one, right, because he had I mean six five

131
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: six five, right, I mean he've got Ostweiler seven, and

132
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: then you had who else? Amo missing Peyton ly yes,

133
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: Pax and Lynch is another six ft six plus it.

134
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Now you had Flacco. I mean, it's unbelievable, like a

135
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: basketball team. Basketball team. Now, I'll give John Elway credit.

136
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: He is not afraid. I mean, obviously his baseball background,

137
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: he's not afraid to go to the plate and go

138
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: down swinging. He is swung and missed repeatedly on these quarterbacks.

139
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: And maybe just be careful, man, because he could be

140
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: your But you play at John Elways Stadium, you can't

141
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: go you can't go in on hard. I can't go hard,

142
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: but look, he is a guy who was certainly not

143
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: afraid to spend the wheel on the quarterback Carroll Stale.

144
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco comes over, and I think the big thing

145
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: the selling point for the Broncos with Joe Flacco. Vic

146
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 1: Fangio obviously now him from having worked in Baltimore. He

147
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: was around when Joe Flacco was there, so he kind

148
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: of knows how he goes about doing business. And I

149
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: think he kind of boils down to this and DJ.

150
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Most executives won't talk about it, but there's something to

151
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: pedigree and how you come into the league. And Joe

152
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: Flacco came into the league as a first round pick.

153
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: Case Keenum came into the league as an undrafted free agent,

154
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: and sometimes it is hard to shake that stigma. It

155
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: is hard to shake the fact that you didn't come

156
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: in kind of as the anointed one. And when you

157
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: look at the talent disparity between a Joe Flacco and

158
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: a Case Keenan, you talk about a big, strapping, strong

159
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: arm passer and then you have a little bit of

160
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: an underside guy who's more of kind of a dink

161
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: and dunk playmaker. I just think when guys are doing

162
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: the evaluation. They still kind of remember that Joe Flacco

163
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: was a first round talent, and so he is always

164
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: going to kind of get the nod when you kind

165
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: of evaluating the first round of versus undrafted free agent,

166
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: particularly at this stage where they're in their careers. Interesting points.

167
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: A couple of things I'd like to bring up. One,

168
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: we saw Joe Flacco in this Shanahan system with Gary

169
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: Kubiak have a lot of success. So we've seen him

170
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: inside this system where it fits him. Obviously Baltimore thing

171
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: had gotten away from that. Uh number or two, I

172
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: think the talent around him in Baltimore in terms of

173
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: what they had on the perimeter was not very good.

174
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: At least they've got They've got some young receivers here

175
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: that we both like. When you look at Courtland Sutton,

176
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: h Dashawn Hamilton's what he can do. Uh, Emmanuel Sanders

177
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: will see if he sticks around there still is a

178
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: really good player. So he's got some guys to throw to.

179
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: Not to mention a couple of good backs with those

180
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: rookies we saw with Philip Lindsay and Royce Freeman. So

181
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: there's some good pieces in place. Skill positions he's had

182
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: success in this offense. The challenge is gonna be you

183
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 1: have now, Mike Munchuk has his work cut out for

184
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: him because I think with him and Dante Scarneki are

185
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: the best too offensive line coaches in the NFL. And

186
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: and man, he's gonna earn his paycheck because they are

187
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 1: not good up front and Flacco is not gonna be

188
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: able to get away from you. So that's gonna be

189
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: the challenges. You've got immobile quarterback and a crappy offensive line. Um,

190
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to coach your butt off and they're

191
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: gonna have to be aggressive not only in free agency,

192
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: but in the draft. They need to bring some more

193
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: bodies to that offensive line. Yeah you know. Um, But

194
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: in saying all of that, like the pieces aren't necessarily perfect.

195
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: I like what they have on the scale, on the perimeter,

196
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: with the skilled players to pass catchers and even the

197
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: runners Philip Lindsay, Royce Freeman. I think those guys are solid.

198
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 1: But you talk about the offensive line, and the reason

199
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: the offensive line is such a pivotal piece for Joe

200
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: Flaccoy is You're right. He can't escape, he can't get outside.

201
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: They can't put him on the move. So to me,

202
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: this is an offense that is going to be downhill

203
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: running game, complimentary play action where they're gonna take shots

204
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 1: and throw the ball down the field. The good thing

205
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: about being a play action team is that play action

206
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: is actually easier for the offensive line because you got

207
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: the run action, you're moving off the ball, you can

208
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: kind of create opportunities off misdirection and deception, and so

209
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: how they put together these route concepts with the protection.

210
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: I think Joe Flacco actually could be fine in this offense.

211
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: But Mike Munchak does have to solidify the offensive line

212
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: because Joe Flacco has been at his best when he's

213
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: had a solid offensive line and a running game. If

214
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: you go all the way back early in Baltimore when

215
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: he had Ray Rice and they had that big, physical,

216
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: imposing offensive line, that is when Joe Flacco was at

217
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 1: his best as that kind of Avante Leachs there too

218
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: at that time, right, Yeah, I mean they were able

219
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: to really run the ball and kind of grind it out,

220
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: and then he was a complimentary playmaker. I mean, you

221
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: can't worry about what he's being paid. He's gonna be

222
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: eighteen nineteen million dollars at this stage of his career,

223
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: this stage of his career, he certainly takes care of

224
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: the ball. He can manage the game and if that

225
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: defense plays like they're supposed to play, Joe Flacco has

226
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 1: seen this before because what the Broncos want to do,

227
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: they want to be with the Ravens have always been defense,

228
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 1: run it, complimentary shots in the passing game. I think

229
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco certainly can do that, and I do believe

230
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: he is more talented in case Keenum. Yeah, I agree

231
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 1: with everything. I think we're on the same page. There

232
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: another thing I want to hit you on news wise, Uh,

233
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know it's big news, but Antonio

234
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: Brown demands trade. Um My, my take on it has been.

235
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: First of all, the Steelers don't ever. They're never gonna

236
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: be pushed into a into a corner. We saw it

237
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: last year with a stair down with with Left Bell.

238
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: It's a principled organization, some might say, and stubborn. Um,

239
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: They're gonna do what they feel is best for the organization.

240
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: If they do trade Antonio Brown, which I still anticipate

241
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: probably will happen, It's not has nothing to do with

242
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,599
Speaker 1: him demanding a trade. This was a decision that was

243
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: made previous to that. Uh. Demand and then the next

244
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: question comes up is what can you get for him? Uh?

245
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: And and my response has been, I know he's a

246
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: little bit older than Brandon Cooks. Um, I believe. So

247
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: I have to go look up exactly what Antonio Brown's

248
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: age is. But to me, as a player, if you're

249
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: just looking at a player, I think he is. I

250
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: know you gotta worry about the money and all that,

251
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: but as a player, yeah, he's worth the first round pick.

252
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: If Brandy Cooks Fitch is the first round pick. Um,

253
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: absolutely he's worth the first round pick. Now you have

254
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: to be comfortable with where he is in terms of

255
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna get off the field. He's

256
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: thirty years old, by the way, what you get there,

257
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 1: But to me, buck the way he plays the game, UM,

258
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: I would think on the field, you've got four three

259
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: to four I mean really really good years, hundred catch

260
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: type years ahead of him in the rights. I think.

261
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: So my biggest issue with Antonio Brown I believe he

262
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: is worth a one and some change. Um, you're right

263
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: about him being thirty years old and he has three

264
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,839
Speaker 1: or four good years left. The way that he works

265
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 1: out and he's diligent. My biggest issue is what are

266
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,559
Speaker 1: you getting when you bring him into your locker room?

267
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: And how impressionable are your young players? Uh if you

268
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 1: the San Francisco Fort Honors, which probably makes the most sense.

269
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: They need playmakers. They need playmakers in a bad way.

270
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: They're desperate to have a number one receiver and with

271
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: the money that they have invested in Jimmy Garoppolo, at

272
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: some point they have to kind of upgrade what they

273
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: have on the on the supporting cast. Antonio Brown concerns

274
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 1: me just from I guess the way that he kind

275
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 1: of goes about this thing kind of in and out,

276
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: and you hear some of the things about he didn't

277
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: stay uh in contact with Yeah, I didn't stay in

278
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: contact with people uh at training camp. He kind of

279
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: stays at his own place. Like the still has made

280
00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: a lot of kind of changes. They met his demands

281
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: in a bunch of different areas that you typically don't

282
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 1: do in team sports. And I don't know how many

283
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: teams are going to be willing to kind of, you know,

284
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: have a bunch of rules for fifty two and then

285
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: a difference set of rules for one player. That's that's

286
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: kind of tough, and it's tough for a head coach

287
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 1: to manage that. So I think you have to be very,

288
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: very secure in your job. Uh. You have to be

289
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: very secure and confident in your locker room and how

290
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 1: they will be affected by his entry. Uh So, I

291
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: think this is a deal that is actually harder to

292
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: make because the teams really don't know what they're getting.

293
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: And I think that could be a reason why we

294
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: may see this kind of drag on a little long

295
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: to we anticipate. You know, Brandon Cooks years old, so

296
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: he was changed when he was traded, obviously significantly younger. Um,

297
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: but I still think let me just read some numbers

298
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: to you here. Uh, sixteen games played, hundred and ten catches,

299
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: sixteen games played a hundred catches, sixteen games played a

300
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: hundred thirty six catches fifteen games while I missed one

301
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,959
Speaker 1: hundred six catches fourteen games, hundred one catches, fifteen games,

302
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: a hundred and four. Uh, that's what he's given you

303
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: since two thousand thirteen. Uh So product sction wise buckets,

304
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: there's not a whole lot of sign of of drop

305
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: off there. At fifteen touchdowns last year in fifteen games.

306
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's look, it's it's ridiculous. Fifteen touchdowns

307
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: is remarkable. You just don't see that kind of production

308
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: and to think, uh, he did it when they really

309
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: had changed their offense. They went from doing some of

310
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: the things that they had done previously to new offensive

311
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: coordinated quarterback taking more control over what they were doing,

312
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: and he still was able to get fifteen And a

313
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: lot of people will point to Juju Smith Schuster looking

314
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: like he's ready to be a number one receiver. I

315
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: just want everyone to understand the reason why Juju was

316
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: able to get off and have these big games is

317
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: because the defense is paying a lot of attention to

318
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown. And that's not to take anything away from

319
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster, but there's a difference between defending eighty four

320
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: and defending nineteen. And we saw that last game of

321
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: the year when eighty four wasn't on the field, Juju

322
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: had a tough time getting off And so I think

323
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh steell Is also have to weigh that in

324
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: this is a small window with their franchise quarterback in Roethlisberger.

325
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: If they jettison Antonio Brown, who is going to be

326
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: the guy that not only plays the number one role,

327
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: but how do they fill out number two, three, and

328
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: four to give Ben Roethlisberger the weapons that he needs

329
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: because he's also losing the running back and Livy and building.

330
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: I know he played with James Conner and Jalen Samuels

331
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: came in, but it's different you now talking about two

332
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: of the best players at their respective positions, not to

333
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: mention the offensive line coach who we've just talked about.

334
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: That that's a lot of transition and I'm not a

335
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: big fan of having a lot of change. Little change,

336
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: not wholesale change. Yeah, No, that's gonna interesting to see

337
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: what happens there. Also at Jake Glazer saying it, look,

338
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,600
Speaker 1: it wasn't based off of any um, you know, any sources,

339
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: but he thought it would not be surprised if Odell

340
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: Beckham ended up getting traded um as well during the

341
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: So I just I had given you those numbers for uh,

342
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: for for Brown. When you look at games missed for Odell,

343
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: now three of the five years buck he's missed at

344
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: least four games, including including two thousand and seventeen he

345
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: played four, two thousand eight teen he played twelve. UM

346
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: he played twelve games in two thousand fourteen, his rookie year.

347
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: Uh So to me, you look at Antonio Brown fifteen

348
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: sixteen games just about every single year. The durability there

349
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: and a little bit more consistent. I know O'Dell's is younger,

350
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: he's more dynamic, um, but there's a longer track record

351
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 1: there with Antonio Brown. Yeah, it's a longer track record

352
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 1: with Antonio Brown in terms of being able to be

353
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: there consistently. With Odell, like, you do have those issues

354
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: and look, the injury history is a bit of a concern,

355
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 1: but when you look at the production, he is so

356
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: productive and he's such a difference maker, and he's been

357
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: able to do it with a quarterback who was really

358
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: on the downside of his career, and so you just

359
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: wonder how good, how impactful could he be if they

360
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: did have a young quarterback who did have the ability

361
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: to make all of the throws to all areas of

362
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: the field, so Odell could really use all aspects of

363
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: his game. That is what I'm excited to see, and

364
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: I think that is what the Giants or waiting to see.

365
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: How does he respond when you really give him a

366
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback that still is in his prime and can

367
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: make the throws that allows O'Dell to be more than

368
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: just to catch themun specialists, no doubt. Well, I means

369
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: to see what happens with those wide receivers. Uh. Some

370
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 1: other news draft related will hit these real quick. Here.

371
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: Jalen Ferguson disinvited from the Combine due to a fight

372
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: that took place even prior um to his landing at

373
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 1: Louisiana Tech. It luck, it's uh mort mentioned this. A

374
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: bunch of people have piled on this. Um. Don't like it.

375
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: Don't like this this rule they have where the if

376
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 1: you have any history of violence, that you are not

377
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: allowed to come to the combine. Because it doesn't penalize

378
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,239
Speaker 1: the kid, it penalizes the thirty two teams because they

379
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to talk to him about these situations. Um,

380
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,479
Speaker 1: and have to Uh now you gotta go hunt them down.

381
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: You gotta bring him into your facility for visits, or

382
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: you gotta go find them at their pro day. Makes

383
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: it tough to have them in your regular meeting at

384
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: the Combine. Yeah, I understand that they're trying to make

385
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: it uh punitive for guys who are involved in these incidents. However,

386
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: from a team spend standpoint, it just makes it more

387
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: complicated because rather than having an opportunity to sit down

388
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 1: and visit with the kid right there at the combine,

389
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: for every team to spend fifteen uh or so men

390
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: is talking to him about what is going on, what

391
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 1: took place in the past, to get some more information

392
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 1: so they can go and carry on their own investigations.

393
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 1: Then you have to fly down to Louisiana Tech and

394
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: you have to interview them there, and then you have

395
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: to kind of like do all the legwork where you

396
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: really could get a jump start on the process by

397
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: being able to interview him right there in Indy and

398
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: then just kind of determine whether he's a guy that

399
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: is a fit for your organization or not. I understand

400
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: the why behind the league's decision to bar some of

401
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: these guys from the combine, but I do believe some

402
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: of these guys are so talented that they're gonna play.

403
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 1: You might as well allow teams to get around him

404
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: and see what they could be taken on when they

405
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: take these players. Yeah, I'm I'm with you on that.

406
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: One one of the other players who was not invited

407
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: the Combine. Jeffrey Simmons UH for an incident he had

408
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 1: and while he was in high school before he got

409
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 1: to Mississippi State, UM had uh some violence, got an

410
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: altercation with a female and it was caught on video

411
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: videos out there. Everybody's seen it. Um everything I've been

412
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 1: told by the folks at Mississippi State or by scouts

413
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: that went through there. Talked to everybody on campus. They said,

414
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: you talked to anybody. He's He's been a model student,

415
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: model citizen there. Hasn't had any issues since then. Obviously

416
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 1: a horrible, horrible decision um that he made in high school,

417
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: but he was not going to be at the Combine

418
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: because of that situation. Then, to make matters worse in training,

419
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: he tears his a c L. So that's gonna complicate

420
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: matters even further for Jeffrey Simmons. Yeah, it does complicate

421
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: matters even for then. This is a I mean, a

422
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: standout player. He I mean he's a big time player.

423
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: He is everything that you look for as an inside player.

424
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: He is disruptive, he is physical, he plays with a

425
00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: hot motor, he's a tempo changer, all of those things.

426
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: And so we had the incident there where he was

427
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: gonna have to deal with in terms of the character

428
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: and even though everyone in Mississippi State speaks highly of

429
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: him in terms of the guy that he is and

430
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: the way that he has been on campus, you're going

431
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: to have to deal with that in the background. But

432
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 1: now you have an A c L injury, and so

433
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: what you have to determine is the risk versus the

434
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: reward and where do you value a guy who may

435
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: not be able to give you a contribution his first year.

436
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: Where do you take that off the board. Because without

437
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: the injury, I think he's top fifteen, that's a lock.

438
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 1: Now with the injury, does he fall around? Does he

439
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: go into forty five, like around forty forty six, does

440
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: he go even later? I just think he is too

441
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: talented to let kind of run past your team a

442
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: few times. I think teams that have multiple picks, particularly

443
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: in the second round, one of those teams will be

444
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,119
Speaker 1: able to kind of snatch him up and kind of

445
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: sock him away because they know what they could be

446
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: getting down the road. Here's the thing he's been compared

447
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: to the Sydney Jones situation was a corner coming out

448
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: of Washington. He tore his achilles at the you dub

449
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,479
Speaker 1: pro day. Now. The difference is achilles injuries worse than

450
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: a than a a c o UM and you're at

451
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,919
Speaker 1: a corner position where a leg injury is. You know,

452
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: that is a big, big deal. So that that dropped

453
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: him from what most of the view is a top

454
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: fifteen pick to the forty third pick I believe where

455
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: the Eagles took him there in the second round. The

456
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 1: reason this is different. Number one, it's a defensive tackle

457
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: versus a corner. Number two, it's a c O versus

458
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: an achilles. And I look at this and you you

459
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 1: just you, you answer this question for me, Buck, Are

460
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: the Raiders gonna be any good next year? They're not

461
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: gonna be any good. The Raiders have two picks in

462
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: the twenties, twenty four and twenty seven. Why would you

463
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: not use one of those picks on Jeffrey Simmons, who

464
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 1: you can red shirt. You're gonna not gonna be any

465
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: good next year. Anyways, this is a long term build.

466
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: As you get towards Las Vegas, you're trying to get

467
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: that team ready to go, you could end up having

468
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: you know, you've got all these extra picks. To me

469
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: and you've to get those extra picks you part of

470
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,200
Speaker 1: ways with two guys with with pretty high ceilings, don't

471
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: you want some of these picks to have the potential

472
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: to be home runs? And to me, Jeffrey Simmons, pick

473
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: number twenty seven after you've already made two first round picks,

474
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: to me, that's like you're getting a top five pick

475
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 1: in next year's draft. Is the way I would look

476
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: at that. It does. And I think, man, you're so

477
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 1: spot on when you talk about the Oakland Raiders. Remember

478
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders last year to Moharst. Did it take

479
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: Moharst in the fifth round? Fifth round? Mohurst was a

480
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: guy that we talked about potentially being a first round

481
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 1: player until he had the issue that popped up um

482
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: and made some teams kind of worry about his medical condition.

483
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: But they get him in the fifth round and he

484
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: played and he played well for them. If you're the

485
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 1: Oakland Raiders, you certainly have an opportunity to do the

486
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: risk reward game. Uh. In this situation, Jeffrey Simmons is

487
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: a top ten talent. Uh. I mean he's a dominant player,

488
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: he's a needle mover. If I'm the Oakland Raiders. Maybe

489
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 1: I consider it's look, I know, by the time he

490
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: gets to the combine, by the time they do to

491
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: pro that he'll only be a couple of months out

492
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 1: like post op. I think it kind of depends on

493
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: what the doctors say, but I do believe there's an

494
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 1: area where they could find a way to take him

495
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the first round, top of the

496
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 1: second round to make sure that he gives them the

497
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: impact for player that they need on the front line,

498
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: no doubt. All right, let's uh, let's get into your

499
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: top five's here, Buck, this is what we've been waiting for. Here,

500
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: We're gonna go position by position. I'll just name off

501
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 1: the position and you can rip through him one through

502
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: five and and feel free at any point in time

503
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: too if you feel there, if you feel there's a

504
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: need for explanation, uh, I fired in there, and then

505
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: I'll give you a closing, closing thought on your list

506
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: and then uh, and then we'll just keep going to

507
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 1: the positions. You're ready to go, All right, let's do it.

508
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: Here we go. Quarterbacks Quarterbacks Bucky Brooks top five quarterbacks

509
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: heading into the combine. Go, okay, here we go. Dwayne Haskins,

510
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, Drew Lock, Daniel Jones, Ryan Finley at five.

511
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: And when I look at this list, the big thing

512
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: that stood out to me was Kyler Murray at two

513
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: over Drew Lock and Daniel Jones. And the reason I

514
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: went with Colin Murray over those two guys is if

515
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: we didn't know the physical measurements and we just looked

516
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 1: at the tape without all the battery of information when

517
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: it comes to the dimensions and those things, if we

518
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: try to figure out who was the better player, I

519
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: think it would be pretty unanimous that Cayler Murray was

520
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 1: a more impactful and a better player than Drew lock

521
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: In Daniel Jones during his time at Oklahoma. Now you

522
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: have to make a decision, are you okay with the

523
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: height thing? And when you look at the fact that, look,

524
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: the number passage that he had batted down wasn't significant,

525
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: didn't jump off the page. When you look at how

526
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,640
Speaker 1: he played as a one year starter in that offense,

527
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: that same offense that we saw Baker Mayfield play well

528
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: and didn't have immediate success in the National Football League,

529
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of things that kind

530
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: of go in Cala Murray's favor, and I know people

531
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,479
Speaker 1: are on the outside world. Some people are talking like, oh,

532
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 1: he should be a second or third rounder. This kid

533
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: is the first round pick in my estimation. It's a

534
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 1: matter of do you believe in him, in his ability

535
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: to overcome whatever physical deficiencies he may have to be

536
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: a star in this league. A couple of thoughts from

537
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: me here. Number one, UM, I had two hang ups,

538
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: or two concerns I should say, with Kyler Murray. I

539
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: came out with my list in the middle of oh gosh,

540
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: second week of January. Um So my two concerns. Buck

541
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: one was focused commitment. You know, is he is this

542
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: gonna be juggling to sports. I'm not. I'm not taking

543
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: that risk if that's if that's what we're gonna happen

544
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 1: all forward. So he checked that box. He said he's

545
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: done with baseball, he's committed to football, and he's gonna

546
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: give his money back to the eighth So that one

547
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 1: concern has been alleviated. Number two was just the bulk.

548
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: It wasn't even the height, it was just the bulk.

549
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: I had seen reports and heard from folks that he

550
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: was a hundred and eighty three eighty five pounds, and

551
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: to me, that was a major, major red flag just

552
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 1: in terms of physically holding up at the NFL level

553
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: at that weight. Now I've been told by a little

554
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 1: birdie that he's gonna be over two hundred pounds. So

555
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 1: he's over two hundred pounds. That to me clears the

556
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 1: second hurdle. Um, So that alleviates those concerns. And then

557
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,399
Speaker 1: you know, since since early January had gone back and

558
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 1: watched even more. And I agree with you just off

559
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: of ability level, he's one of the two best guys

560
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: based off the tape for sure. I'm with you on that.

561
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: So if he if he cleans up those two issues,

562
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: he's already cleaned up one, looks like he might clean

563
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: up the other. To me, I think he's going to

564
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: be the first or second guy. I'm worried about him

565
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 1: being over two hundred pounds though, man be a little refrigerator,

566
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: like I don't want to have something on there. Now

567
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 1: he's gonna have something on He does have to have

568
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: something on there. I just don't want to take away

569
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,919
Speaker 1: from his speed and it'd be um. I don't know

570
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: when you played at we Gotta, I mean, did he

571
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: play at one nineties seven last year and he play

572
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: at one eighty two. I don't know he was playing.

573
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: I mean I don't, I don't know. I mean he's

574
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: he's a squirt and he's a little squirt. He can

575
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 1: get out of he can get out of dodge. Um,

576
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 1: the only one is the other one by the way,

577
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 1: real quick, Ryan Finley at the end. I've done more

578
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 1: games recently doing all these defensive players, and I just

579
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,399
Speaker 1: keep seeing NC State for some reason, and all I

580
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: see Ryan Finley do is throw on time, put the

581
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: ball where it's right, and move the ball up and

582
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: down the field. And I'm sitting here going, wait a second,

583
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: why don't have I don't know, why don't we talk

584
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,959
Speaker 1: more about Ryan Finley. We love meeting with him. He's

585
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: a great kid, get good person soonality, you know, wish

586
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: she he's a little bit thin, maybe wish she was

587
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: a little bit thicker, doesn't have a huge arm. But

588
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 1: I thought he was steady and consistent the week down

589
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, and uh he's he's a good player

590
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: you look at for for that guy and outside the

591
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: first round that's got a chance to start. Um, I

592
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: like it. I like you have Ryan Finley. There. You

593
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: know the think about Ryan Finley that stands out to me, Um,

594
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: there's some guys that just know how to play the game,

595
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: and they won't wow you, but they're guys are just

596
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: gotta understand how to connect the dots, and they're surrounded

597
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: by the right players they can do. And then he

598
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 1: was surrounded by great players at NC State, And in fact,

599
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: I probably did him a disservice because I didn't include

600
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: some of those guys that my wife receiver rankings. But

601
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: we'll get to that. Um, I think the big things

602
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: he understands how to get the ball out of his hands.

603
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 1: He does a good job of kind of playing on time.

604
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: And when you're an offensive coordinator and you're kind of

605
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: playing with the due the eyes of the quarterback, you

606
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: want guys who are gonna do it exactly the way

607
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 1: that you wanted done the way you draught up. I

608
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: think Ryan Finley does that, and for a good team,

609
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: I think he has a lot of value. I think

610
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: somewhere in the second round it's kind of where I

611
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: can see his name being called. Right, we'll go quicker

612
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 1: here now for the rest of the positions. Here running

613
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: backs go, Here we go Josh Jacobs, Devin Singletary, Damien Harris, Dave,

614
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: David Montgomery, and the Bryce Love at five. And I

615
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: think we've talked about all these guys. I think on

616
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: the podcast the other day we talked about Josh Jacobs

617
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: and how after seeing Alvin Kamar, there are a lot

618
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 1: of people that will kind of view him in that light,

619
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 1: uh low knowledge, big production in terms of the way

620
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: that you can forecast what he'll be able to do

621
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: at the next level, So you like him. Devin Singletary

622
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: is a guy that the more I watch him, the

623
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: more I kind of like his ability to kind of

624
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: get in and out of traffic. Um he has some

625
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: who deny like skills in terms of getting out of traffic.

626
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a guy in the

627
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: right system, he can do big things. And then David

628
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: Montgomery is kind of the steady Eddie producer, really good player.

629
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: You worry about the the amount of volume that he's

630
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: kind of had to take on during his time at

631
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: Iowa State, But man, you just talked about a good,

632
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: solid football player, a guy that should be a solid

633
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: starter for a long time. David Montgomery strikes me. And

634
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: then with his love the reason I kind of put

635
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: Bryce Love to you know, and meeting sometimes where we

636
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: kind of put a guy up there in the holding tank.

637
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: Bryce Love is in the holding tank for me because

638
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: I want to see where he is at the combine

639
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: in terms of I don't expect him to work out,

640
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: but let's just see where he is medically, because I

641
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: think he could be the value pick. He could be

642
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: the guy that goes. And in fact, it reminds me

643
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: a little bit not this situation, but the Indianapolis Colts

644
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: last year took Naheim Hans in the fourth round, and

645
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: Nahem Hans was kind of the guy that kind of

646
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: rotated in with Marlon Mack and did some things in

647
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: the passing game. Bry's Love hasn't caught the ball to

648
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: that degree at Stanford, but I do believe he's kind

649
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: of in that change of pace back type, kind of

650
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: like Geo Bernard for the Cincinnati Bengals. I think fifth

651
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: on this list is a nice spot for him. We'll

652
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 1: see if he's able to maintain it after we hear

653
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 1: from guys at the combine. To me, I have Josh

654
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 1: Jacobs is the top guy, and then after that Singletary

655
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: is number two for me. But there then it gets

656
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: real muddy, and to me, it's gonna to see get

657
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: official measurables on these guys at the comm I will

658
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: help sort some of that that list out, but it's

659
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: a it's a good group, good group overall. Running back.

660
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 1: How about receivers. Receivers number one Markey's Brown, DK Metcalfet two.

661
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: That was kind of before the big picture came out,

662
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: but it's too late. I'd already a found it in

663
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: Kyo Harry at three, A J. Brown at four, and

664
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 1: then I went with Riley Ridley and number five. Riley

665
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: really I think is the best route runner. He's not

666
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 1: gonna run as fast as brother. Um, he's a really

667
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: really good route runner. Those Georgia guys. The other one

668
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: is Mikole Hardman. Is gonna you watch when he was

669
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: at the combine. He's got his stocks and go through

670
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: the roof. There's just so many miles defeat in that offense.

671
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: We would just talked about the running backs. We we

672
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: didn't mention holy Field. Um, he's another one. Just there's

673
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: just not a lot of touches and carries to go around.

674
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 1: They had so much talent there at Georgia. Um, but

675
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: I do think really is a really really good route runner.

676
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: And then, UM, you mentioned that picture of DK Metcalf

677
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: that float around the internet where he looked like a

678
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: defensive end uh two big two big buck uh way

679
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: too big. It reminded me of when David Boston just

680
00:30:54,920 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: uh ate somebody and fifty pound wide receiver. As one point,

681
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you just don't mean you have to be

682
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 1: able to get in and out of your brakes and

683
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: everything that people have told me about DK Metcalf and

684
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: when I watched and they talk about the explosiveness and

685
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: those things, but when I see the picture, I just wonder.

686
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: So I have concerns. I have to see him work

687
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: out at the combine. I have to see if there's

688
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: a level of stiffness to his game. Is he going

689
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: to be able to bend? Is gonna have the flexibility

690
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: that um we saw when we're looking at the tape.

691
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: I just don't know why you would be that massive

692
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: when it comes time to do things. Let me just

693
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: tell you what needs to happen there is he needs

694
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: to go. You know, if you if you're if you're

695
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: the agent there, you get his wallet, You take his

696
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,239
Speaker 1: wallet and I don't even know because I know when

697
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: JAM memberships now they use your phone. You just scan

698
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: your scan of thing on your phone. You can take

699
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 1: his membership cart away. I'm gonna take your membership, and

700
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna slip in there. He's gonna go, uh

701
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: like you know, it's gonna say Cynthia's Yoga House, Like

702
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: what is this? Three months subscription to Cynthia's Yoga House.

703
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, we're get here. Here's the give me hey, hey,

704
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: give me the barbell, take the yoka, the trade, I mean,

705
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: the cod everything. I don't want to do a shameless

706
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: flog where he should be an orange theory or somewhere

707
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: like that. He can, he can get on the bike,

708
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 1: he can do something. I'm worried about his cardio. We needed,

709
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: we need to slim him down. So I want to

710
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: slim him down just a little bit protein check. Give

711
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: that back. We don't need you all of the other stuff,

712
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 1: like yesh, my gosh. I mean, he's a really good player.

713
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: I just worry about the guy. I worry about the

714
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: defensive coach seeing him, he were like, hey, who's the

715
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: defensive man. I didn't see him all. I didn't see

716
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: him on the draft board. Let's bring this guy in

717
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: and put his put his in the dirt. Tell me

718
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: that's that's what seeing him of that picture was. I

719
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: told you this story before, but when I was in

720
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: college at Northeast Louisiana and we played Central Florida and

721
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: came out for warm ups and there was a dude

722
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 1: out there with just his pants on, no shirt, big

723
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 1: jacked up dude and was out there, you know, playing catch,

724
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: And I go, hey, is that like forty five is

725
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: at the defensive end. He goes, that's the quarterback. I go,

726
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: that's the quarterback he was dn't te Cole Pepper. Yes, yes,

727
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't age well either. When you're big, you come

728
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: in the league that big, you only get bigger, you

729
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: don't get smaller. So I kind of worry about him,

730
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: um maximizing the length of his career because he's so

731
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,719
Speaker 1: big going into it. Yeah. Interesting, All right, let's get

732
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: the tight ends. Here we go t J. Hockenson number one,

733
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 1: er Smith to no offense Isaac Nada and in Jake

734
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: Jason Sternberger at five for the tight ends and right

735
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: out the gate man. It was so fun to watch

736
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: the Iowa offense. I mean to think that you have

737
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: to first round talents at tight end that is unbelievable

738
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:48,239
Speaker 1: to watch. And and he's the classic y. He is

739
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: the guy that can be your inline blocker. He can

740
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: make plays in the passing game catch it, has enough

741
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: speed to get down the same and the no offen.

742
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: It's kind of like you've got Jumbo while receiver. He

743
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,959
Speaker 1: has the juice. He can make big Day's down the

744
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: field in that passing game. He's dynamic. Now he has

745
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: to be a better blocker. Uh. He doesn't give you

746
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: exactly what you want. But if you want a real

747
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna dig him out, you can take t J.

748
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: But both of those guys are terrific and look, any

749
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: other year, earth Smith will be a guy that we

750
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 1: would be raving about. It's just that this is a

751
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: deep and talented tight end class and there's a lot

752
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: of excitement about what these guys can bring. Yeah, another

753
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: guy keep an eye on at the combine. It's Holly

754
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: Wearing from San Diego State. He's gonna he is big

755
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: and athletic. He's somebody I think is gonna be in

756
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: that second round range. Uh. And then other one's gonna

757
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,959
Speaker 1: test really well as Dawston Knox f old Mess didn't

758
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: get a lot of production. He's pretty good in the

759
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: run game. But he's gonna run fast. He's gonna be

760
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 1: you know, six four two and or fifty something pounds

761
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 1: and he's gonna roll. So yeah, it's a it's a

762
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: really good group. It's a really good group. And and

763
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this because I have Isaac not a

764
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: ranked number four. Some of this is a personal bias.

765
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: He was on one of my groups. He wont when

766
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: when he won you a championship, didn't he He didn't

767
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:58,919
Speaker 1: win me a championship, but he was on the team.

768
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: And what I will say is he wasn't fully utilized

769
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: at Georgia. And you see it in Spurs. You can

770
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: see his route, running the building and a lot of miles.

771
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: So I think when he has worked out by tight

772
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: end coaches when they come, I think he's gonna be

773
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: the guy that's kind of the wild card in terms

774
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 1: of where he goes because he's a guy that can

775
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: do everything. He can block, he can catch, he can run,

776
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: rouse and do all those things. I will keep an

777
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: eye on. Not alright tackles, Okay, here we go. Tackles

778
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 1: number one, Juwan Taylor, Jonah Williams, Andre Dillard, Cody Ford,

779
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: and Greg Little. And the guy that I want to

780
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: focus on, um Juwan Taylor to me, was really really good.

781
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: He's a really good player. Now. It's a it's a

782
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 1: mind trick as a scout because typically we always think

783
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 1: the best tackle should be a left tackle. So then

784
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 1: when you're looking at Florida tape, you're like, well, why

785
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 1: is Taylor on the right side? And uh, I've on

786
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: the left, And then when you look at I move around,

787
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, it's not even close. Like but in Taylor,

788
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 1: I like his patients, I like his ability to move

789
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: people off the ball in the run game. I just

790
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: feel like this is a guy that looks like a

791
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 1: starting tackle. Now. I don't know in his background can

792
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: we put him in left tackle and the like, But

793
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,479
Speaker 1: his footwork has balanced his body control and his explosive power.

794
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: It leads me to believe that he can be a

795
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 1: guy that is a solid starter for a long time

796
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: in this league. Yeah. To me, it's it's really kind

797
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: of a flavor thing with these tackles, and it depends

798
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: on where you had Jonah Williams. I put him inside

799
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 1: at guard and I think he's got a chance to

800
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: be in all pro guard. It's not a light to

801
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: him uh in any way, But to me, it's what

802
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: do you want? I mean, Dillard to me is the

803
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,359
Speaker 1: pure past protecting left tackle. Uh. Taylor has got more

804
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: snap and power in the run game. If you're a

805
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 1: physical team, want, you know, drive guys off the ball,

806
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 1: he's your guy. Cody Ford. Some people view him as

807
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 1: a guard or he's kind of a guard tackle wherever

808
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 1: you feel comfortable there. He's got the ability, I think,

809
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 1: to kind of do all those things, but just isn't

810
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: as consistent. So it's just kind of what what flavor

811
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: do you want? I have all four of those guys

812
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: graded very similar, almost identical grades. It's just for certain teams,

813
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: you know you might need one of these versus one

814
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: of those. And that's how that's how that's all gonna

815
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: get sorted out. Yeah, you know the thing about this

816
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: and what you're like, You're right, this is like popping

817
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: up in basketb Robins and trying to determine what flavor

818
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 1: do I want on my offensive line? And we talked

819
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: about Taylor being a guy that is more of a

820
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: people moving more of a rugged UH guy at the

821
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 1: point of attack. And Andre Dillard is your classic pass protective.

822
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 1: So if you're in offense, maybe like the Houston Texans,

823
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: where you're looking for a solid pass protective to make

824
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 1: sure that Deshaun Watson doesn't get hit, Andre Dillard is

825
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 1: your guy. Because we saw him at the Senior Bowl.

826
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: He was terrific. He had the balance and the pitter

827
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: patter and all those things that you look for. You

828
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: would like to see him a little more physical than ranking,

829
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 1: but he wasn't asked to really run block at Washington State.

830
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,920
Speaker 1: And so I think with all of these guys, you

831
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 1: have to make a decision how do I envision my

832
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: team playing, and then just make sure you pick the

833
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 1: right guy for the style of plate that you want

834
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: to have on offense. Two guys are gonna rise through

835
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: the process. Buck Dalton Riisinger from Kansas State, who had

836
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 1: a great week down there in Mobile the Senior Bowl,

837
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 1: I thought would have to move inside the guard. UH

838
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,959
Speaker 1: watching him they're up close at the Senior Bowl's gonna

839
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 1: stay at tackle. I think he's gonna be in that

840
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: second round range. And then Caleb McGary from Washington. Just

841
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: the guys six, he's almost six seven, he's six oh

842
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: six seven one pounds and uh, he's quick footed and

843
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 1: he's nasty. Now, he's not perfect, he's not clean, but

844
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 1: it wouldn't shock him. With those dimensions and that temperament.

845
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: Somebody's gonna view him as a day one starting right tackle.

846
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 1: And we've seen guys like that go in the twenties.

847
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: If not the twenties, then early in the second round

848
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: he's gonna go. Yeah. I mean, I was very impressed

849
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 1: with the guys that showed up at the Senior Bowl

850
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: and rising Uh. The thing about Risinger, I just loved

851
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 1: how physical he was in those drills. When we watched

852
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: him in drills, we watched him in the team period.

853
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 1: He had a little nastiness that I think it's very

854
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: very important to have on your offensive line. And I

855
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: was very impressed with all of the group. And so

856
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,360
Speaker 1: and then McGary, did you talked about from Washington six

857
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: seven long arms. The link that you need to be

858
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: able to deal with some of these pass rushers is

859
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: really all about getting with the right offensive line coach

860
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: and kind of refining the technique and how they play.

861
00:38:57,880 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: But there are a lot of guys that I think

862
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 1: we'll see a lot of offensive tackles that will see

863
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 1: going the first two rounds. It's an important position, and

864
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,320
Speaker 1: this year I think they're producing a lot of solid

865
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: players that can come in and be starters right away.

866
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 1: To Madoga from us Seas another one had a good

867
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 1: week down there. Uh in Mobile, our interior offensive lineman.

868
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 1: Lumped them all together here centers and guards we got

869
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: here go Garb brad Berry at one, Elton Jenkins, kind

870
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 1: of mcgarvin, Chris Lyndstrom, and Mike Jordan's That was my

871
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 1: top five and Bradbury to me is the bell of

872
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,800
Speaker 1: the ball. He is the class of the group. Watching him, uh,

873
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: not only the i Q that you have to have

874
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: at center, but just how smooth he was getting to

875
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: the next level. I just felt like he was the

876
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: ring leader. He does all of the stuff that you

877
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: expect your pivot to be able to do, and so

878
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: I loved him. I think he is by far the

879
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: number one I would expect him. See him come off

880
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 1: the board in the first round, and then the rest

881
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: of the guys. I think it's still kind of like

882
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: what do you like and what do you wanted to position.

883
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 1: Are you looking for a power interior player, you're looking

884
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: for a guy that can move, or your own team,

885
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,239
Speaker 1: or you a gap scheme that that changes it. It

886
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 1: does change and so you can reshuffle those guys. But

887
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: the one thing that we're seeing now with these interior blockers,

888
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 1: they matter more. It used to be kind of a

889
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 1: throwaway position. You put anybody in there. I think is

890
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: changing because you saw what Quinn Nelson was able to do,

891
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 1: an impact that he had on the Colts. Also it

892
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: was Brayton Smith from HAB come in like you're seeing

893
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: how offensive lineman can impact what you're able to do

894
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 1: right away. I think you'll see more and more teams

895
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,439
Speaker 1: take a closer look at these big bodies because there's

896
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 1: a lot of value in the In the twenty nineteen class, Yeah,

897
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: another guy would throw in the mix just add on there.

898
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: Drew Semia from Oklahoma who I thought had a really

899
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: good week in Mobile six five three or four pounds.

900
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: I think he's kind of in that conversation. UM a

901
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: really good player there. And then Eric McCoy from Texas

902
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: A and M who I think has some some center guard.

903
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:51,359
Speaker 1: There's another another very solid, very solid player all right,

904
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: they always say, Buck, you want to keep people wanting more.

905
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'm gonna call an audible here unless you, uh,

906
00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: you're in disagreement. But I think we did a nice

907
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: throw run down there on the offense. Come back to

908
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,280
Speaker 1: the defense so it doesn't get Let's save the defense

909
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 1: for the next episode. Then we can go a little

910
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 1: bit more in depth. I don't want to rush through it. Um.

911
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: You you put a great list together here, and I

912
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 1: want to spend some time on so let's save that.

913
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: Let's save that for the next time. Work all right,

914
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: anything else you want to get to here before we

915
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: get out of here, No, that's it, man, what we

916
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: went We went through a lot. We covered a lot

917
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: of ground here. I'm looking at my notes as we

918
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: as we're talking. We did a lot right here. DJ

919
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: I know, man, it's that time of year, Bud. I'm

920
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: I've been cranking through. I've got my calendar. You could

921
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 1: see it. It's like a I'm like a fourth grader.

922
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: I've got my calendar print out with the number of

923
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: guys I need to watch and what positions I need

924
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: to get done by which days. Check marks, these little

925
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: check marks I gotta hit and I just days kind

926
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: of cross them off, cross them off, cross them off.

927
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,239
Speaker 1: So as I always say, um, and we talked about

928
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: it on here all the time. This time of year,

929
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 1: it's a it's a marathon, not a sprint to the draft.

930
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: Right now, let's get these guys in the right neighborhood.

931
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 1: We got time to get him in the right house.

932
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: We definitely of time. And that is the thing. It

933
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,360
Speaker 1: is a process. Um, we want to make sure we

934
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 1: get enough of the right names on the board. And

935
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: then as we kind of continue to go further down

936
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: the process that is about stacking the board and getting

937
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: it into right order. But right now I like to start. Man,

938
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: the one thing that the top five listed, it made

939
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: me get to work it maybe look at all these guys,

940
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: and then it was so hard finding the others. Now

941
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the guys that didn't make the top five,

942
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,399
Speaker 1: but beginning to kind of put those guys in order,

943
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: because the combine we'll create a little shake up. We'll

944
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:25,919
Speaker 1: see some moving no, no question, Well, look, let's see

945
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: some some measurables on these guys. You don't you don't

946
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,799
Speaker 1: evaluate off measurables. But it's a difference. You know when

947
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 1: they when a running backs listed at two sixteen pounds

948
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 1: and he shows up at two d one pounds or

949
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: two hundred forty pounds, that's different. So uh, if all

950
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 1: factors into the conversation, we'll have plenty of time to

951
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,399
Speaker 1: jump into that as we marched towards the draft. Can't

952
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: you need to add anything before we get out of here?

953
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: Are we good? But I'll just say, coolest nickname out

954
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: of all these guys, Motor Single Tarry. I love that.

955
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 1: That is good on defense. It's gonna be hard to

956
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 1: beat Greedy in terms of Greedy Williams, but Motor Single

957
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: Tarry in terms of those five running backs. Definitely the

958
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: coolest nick name of the offensive guys that we went through. So, guys,

959
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: the challenge as we get on with it. I had

960
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary's folks reach out to us, his representation reached

961
