00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: We are coming with our final production. Who you got, Garrett?

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: Who We've been talking about it? Did you go corner

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 1: or tackle? Did you take penny? Did you do it?

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 1: Did you stick to your gun? Here's your thing? You're following.

Speaker 1: just gonna copy what he said. Well, we both said

8
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: that on the pop. Like Janiel, Jeremiah generally gets it right.

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: So that's not a pad call to me, it's not.

10
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: I'm just excited. I'm fired up. Ravens have a ton

11
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: of picks and they need they need some serious impact

12
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: players in this draft as they look to find ways

13
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: to get to the Super Bowl and get over that

14
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 1: home Welcome into the Lounge presented by Draft Kings. The

15
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: Draft is one week away, Garrett, here we go. Feels

16
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,640

Speaker 1: finally upon us. I'm excited, man. This is uh. It's

18
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: honestly one of my favorite events in the year. Obviously

19
00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: the games are the best, sure, but the Draft is

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: a close second. I love the Draft. Yeah, I love

21
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: the draft too. I think it's um I think it's

22
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: just cool on like so many different levels. Like there's

23
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: the team building level, which is obvious, and you get

24
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: to talk about all these exciting players, and then there's predictions,

25
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: which we are going to do today as we get

26
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: into our full seven round mock. And so you know,

27
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: a little subset aspect of the draft is competing with

28
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: you the whole weekend, which is no aspect. Food is great.

29
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: Food is great, But then it's like cool. You get

30
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: to watch these guys have dreams come true and it's

31
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: like an emotional weekend for them. It's just like it's

32
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: all still good weekends. So yeah, exactly, every team feels

33
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: good come out of the draft, like yeah, like you

34
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: never every team does, and like every fan base for

35
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 1: the most part does, comes comes out of draft feeling

36
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: good for Jets fans, right, So I'm just excited. I'm

37
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: fired up. Ravens have a ton of picks um and

38
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: they need they need some serious impact players in this

39
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: draft as they look to find ways to get to

40
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: the super Bowl and get over that home. So, as

41
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: you said, we are coming with our final predictions. This

42
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: is pot the same pod and written predictions, no minkering,

43
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: last minute this year. Well, I was just gonna say,

44
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: you know, so it's April twenty. First, we've got a

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 1: week before the draft at least a lot of time

46
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: for minkering. This would be a new record. And if

47
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: this actually holds as your final draft prediction, this is it,

48
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: this ironclad. I'm not gonna do it because always there's

49
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 1: always some things that happen week of all of a sudden,

50
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: guy has a medical issue. I mean the classics. If

51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: that happens, then I get to tinker. No, the classic

52
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: the classic was what Miles Jack. You know, it's like

53
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: the week of you took him, I had him six overall.

54
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: It was my Ronnie Stanley thing. And then like a

55
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: day before they're like, oh yeah, this guy's knee is

56
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: screwed up, right uh, And I was like, oh, Mike,

57
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: he went in the second round. That was six. That

58
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: was that was their all time pretty good player though

59
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: he did now he's a Steeler, Yeah yeah, but the

60
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 1: in turn out to be pretty good player. But yeah,

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: so we were locked and loaded here, um, and I

62
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: think I hit them all. I got them all. You'd

63
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: make the same joke, really good about my picks? I

64
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: got I got ten hits right here, all right, just

65
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: telling you ten hits, ten for ten. I I you know,

66
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: I think one thing that I kind of try to

67
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: pay attention to is that some of the stories you

68
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: know in these drafted right ups. Of course, those are gold.

69
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: I like some of the stories, and I even as

70
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: I'm reading about them, as I'm building out my mock,

71
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: I start to fall for that. You're like, all right,

72
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: his dad as a high school coach, Like, oh, that's points,

73
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: that's points for sure. Military yep, adversity, ye yep. I know,

74
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: all right, all right, here we go. Who you got, Gary?

75
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: Who we've been talking about it? Did you go corner

76
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: or tackle? Did you take penny? Did you do it?

77
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: Did you stick to your guns? I've been saying for

78
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: the past few months that I thought the Rays a

79
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: go with the offensive, And as I've said that, I

80
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: went with Trent McDuffie. You're a real piece of work.

81
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: All that talk about the office, and I have the

82
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: Ravens taking Washington cornerback Trent McDuffie at pick number fourteen. Wow. Okay, well, look,

83
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: I think that the mcduffey fills a big knee for

84
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: this team, which is that they need to add depth

85
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: and high quality players in the secondary. That's definitely something

86
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: they need. They're shorthanded in the secondary right now. And

87
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: McDuffie's a really good player. The only like, everything that

88
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: you read and watch of him, it's all positive. The

89
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 1: only knock is his size. And again, as I've said

90
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: before in the podcast, it's not like he's a small guy.

91
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: He's not. No, not at all. Five eleven one ninety

92
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: three is what he was with the combine three year starter.

93
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: I mean this guy and the other part that that

94
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: Again the write ups loves football, super competitive, all that stuff. Yeah,

95
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: so clean projects, he checks every box. You're just like

96
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: the right, You're just like, oh, well, we would like

97
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: him to be six one, right, whatever, Right, So I

98
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: have them going McDuffie. Now. On the offensive line front,

99
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: I will say this, for the purpose of this mock draft,

100
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: we did not do any trades. It's great. I do

101
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: think if the Ravens do move back, then I think

102
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: Penning could also if he sticks around, there could be

103
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: an option there at linder Bomb if they go way back,

104
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,679
Speaker 1: So I think that they could still make offensive line

105
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: the move, depending on who's around spot. I think Penning

106
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: is one of my like four or five guys where

107
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: if they were going to move back, Devin Lloyd out

108
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: putt in that category. Yeah, apostle trade back options, which

109
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: we all know the Ravens love to trade back. Yeah,

110
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: that would not surprise me. So despite all the talk

111
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: about penning the offensive line, I have them going Trent McDuffie. Wow,

112
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,800
Speaker 1: So you want with the small guy, you want the

113
00:05:54,839 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: little guy? I want with guy going defensive tackle. Jordan

114
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 1: Davis out of Georgia. All right, and here's my thing,

115
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: because here's your thing. You're following. Jeremiah did the podcast

116
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: last week, and so you just are like, you know, Jeremiah,

117
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna take him. I'm just gonna copy what he said. Well,

118
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: we both said that on the pop. Daniel Jeremiah generally

119
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 1: gets it right. So that's not a pad call to

120
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: me make it's not so. I mean, the Ravens like

121
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: big dudes, right, and not only did they like just

122
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: large human beings, but athletic ones. And it doesn't get

123
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: more athletic than Jordan Davis for a side. So he

124
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: got that. Uh, it's called the relative athletic score. Guess

125
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: what score he got out of ten? Ten? Ten yes,

126
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: at ten point oh, he had the second best relative

127
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: athletics score ever recorded by the people that do it,

128
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: behind a guy named Calvin Johnson. I'll take the Calvin

129
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: Johnson of defensive tackles. Yeah, right. I mean like, at

130
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 1: a certain point, you think about, Okay, how valuable is

131
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: a defensive tackle in today's NFL where they throw the

132
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: ball a lot, right, And you know he doesn't he's

133
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: gonna play a hundred percent of snaps. He's not gonna

134
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 1: pay eighty percent of the snaps. Right. But like when

135
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: you have a guy that's as rare and as freakishly

136
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: good as he is, you say, you know what, he's

137
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: gonna just wreck shop like it's worth it because he's

138
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: that special, Right, So you put him on the defensive

139
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: line neecks to class Campbell, you know, with Michael Pierce,

140
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: Justin Madibikee, Derek Wolfe. Right, Like, you're wrecking shop up front, right,

141
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: they they're not running on you. You're getting a lot

142
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: of pushback up front. It's gonna be a problem for people. Yeah,

143
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: And so I think even though the position, you know,

144
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: value isn't necessarily there, like the ability to get such

145
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: a unique player who by the way Nick Saban said,

146
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: and I quote, he's about as good as player as

147
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: I've seen for a long time as an inside player

148
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: on any team. Do you think as he knew some

149
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: trucks trusts Nick Saban's opinion hungry and it was just

150
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: this Nick Saban gassing him up before a big game. No, No,

151
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: this dude is a special player. I think that like

152
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: he changes the Ravens defense. He does. No, look, I

153
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: think he would be really exciting to get there. The

154
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: reason I didn't go that direction is the position value. Yeah,

155
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: is I just think about that. I wonder about that,

156
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 1: and I think that that and the Ravens do have

157
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: They just signed Michael Pierce, they do have Clay's Campbell

158
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: coming back. So it's not as big of a need

159
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: right as cornerback or is the offensive line. In my mind,

160
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: I would agree with that. It's it's definitely definitely not

161
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: as big in the need as corner or pass rusher

162
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: or offensive line. But sometimes the right player comes along,

163
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: and like a player that is that unique, I think

164
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: you just kind of have to take that shot. And

165
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: let me also point out that when the Ravens defense

166
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: was number one in the NFL, theyd Michael Pierce and

167
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: Brandon Williams upfront that were just stuffing people and I

168
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: think you get back to that with this and it helps.

169
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 1: It helps make Patrick Queen better. Like Jordan Davis is

170
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: a national champion on a very good defense and you're

171
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: going to see a lot of Georgia defenders come off

172
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: the board in the first round, right. He kind of

173
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: made all those guys look better, like the Kobe Dean,

174
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: all those guys in that front seven, Trayvon Walker. He

175
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: helped them by being just such a beast up in

176
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: the trench. I think the comp on him, like from

177
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: a just overall massive human being and great athlete in

178
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: the middle of the defense for the Ravens is held well. Yeah, well,

179
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: Dani and Jeremiah we talked to him about that. He said,

180
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: it's like Albert Hainesworth. Yeah, you know without the off

181
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: field stuff that like more you know you have and

182
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: not a two. I mean na would get some sacks.

183
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: You would get a handful of sacks every year. So

184
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: Davis is not getting sacks. I'll I think I think

185
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 1: he has the potential, Like you look at the film

186
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: on him, He's not He's most likely more than five.

187
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: I would agree with that. I would agree with he

188
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: was getting some he a handful handful that's four. Yeah,

189
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: so ye one thing I had here and I was

190
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: as I'm putting this together, I was like, sometimes you

191
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: just got to take a step back and think who

192
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: could it? I go back to the model Humphrey draft.

193
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: Every year. We knew they were wanting to take a

194
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: corner that year, but like nobody had the Ravens take

195
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: in Marlon that year, and it's like, how do we

196
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: all miss this? Alabama? So I'm like, who is it

197
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: this year? And the guy that I came up with

198
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: and some people are projecting this but not not a

199
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: lot is Andrew Booth out of Clemson. No, don't see it.

200
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 1: No corner, good size. When's the last time we drafted

201
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: anybody from Clemson? I mean, Clemson has been one of

202
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: the best teams in college but I know, like, when's

203
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: the lot. I honestly, they hadn't drafted anyone ever. I know.

204
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: I'm just like I do think tray Back. I will

205
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: put him in the group of tray Back guys like

206
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: is he is he? Oh? I don't think he's getting

207
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: did you pay take him in your second round pick.

208
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no no. I I was saying

209
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 1: he would be okay. Is he like the guy we're missing? Yes?

210
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: Is he the guy that everyone's just overlooking. You're we're

211
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: talking about Stanley, and we're talking about Sauce, and we're

212
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: talking I think Stanley. I think Stingley and Sauce are gone,

213
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 1: okay in this, just to be clear, So then I

214
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: think you're looking at McDuffie or maybe a Jordan. This

215
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: is that spot, Penny. We both have said we I

216
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: like the idea of and I think you are on

217
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: board with this of Like if Stingley gets to eleven,

218
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: you know, before the Vikings at twelve, who are a

219
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: lot of people projecting too, that's kind of his floor.

220
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: If Stingley gets to eleven, I'm calling yeah, as you said,

221
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 1: yeah him. And again I don't expect this to happen.

222
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: But if Tibodeau starts to slide. Came on Tibodeau, the

223
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: pass rusher out of Oregon. I all of a sudden

224
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: he starts to get creeping towards the double digits, then

225
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: I am picking up the phone. The Jets have ten

226
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: may pick up and call him if he's there. So

227
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: those are the two guys that I would potentially trade

228
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: up and get might but I just I just wonder

229
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: about Injrew Booth if there's anyway He's the guy that

230
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: we're kind of like, Okay, corner from a great program,

231
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: good size, six foot, one hundred ninety four pounds, So

232
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: if you're worried about the size thing on Stingley, I

233
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 1: just wonder about him. Yeah, I could see a trade

234
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 1: back for him. He's like at end of the first

235
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: round kind of guy. All right, second pick who you got?

236
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna address those needs now. I'm going heavy

237
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 1: knee now right because the Jordan Davis was just I

238
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: love this dude, yeah, exactly. He's the best player available.

239
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: So I'm going cornerback Kyler Gordon out of Washington. So

240
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 1: I'm taking your your guys teammate Truck McDuffie's teammate on

241
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: the other side, Kyler Gordon. And you know what I

242
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: really like about him is here's a premiere athlete, right,

243
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: Just a great athletic dude, very high energy, physical, uh

244
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: just aggressive player, fits all the checks, all the boxes,

245
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 1: good size, he's a little bit bigger than McDuffie is

246
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: not you know, a six foot two guy, but he's

247
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: like six foot um. And you know what else I love?

248
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: You know what else I love? Washington? Oh well, Washington. Right,

249
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: so he's got the Marcus Peters connection, like kind of

250
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: a knock on him is like just his instincts aren't

251
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: quite refined technique instincts. Marcus Peters, nobody has better instincts

252
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: than him. You can coach him up, but you know what,

253
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: I really love the backstory and that of course grew up,

254
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: grew up as a kid, was a dancer, competed in

255
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: dance competitions in kung fu. Okay, that's what he attributes

256
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: to his great feed is that great feat kung fu

257
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: and dancing. Yes, sime up, there's already pictures of him

258
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 1: doing ballet as a kid. We're drafted. We love that

259
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: all right. So look as as we were putting this together,

260
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: there's just the ripple effect that unfolds here, right, right,

261
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: you're a little you're a little insulated from the ripple

262
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: effect because you didn't go knee first round. Right, So

263
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: now you can just you know, you can go corner,

264
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 1: you can go any need position, which is kind of

265
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: nice for you. Yeah, for me all of a sudden,

266
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: you hate your person? Not confident? Are you about the

267
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: mc duffy? How do you? How good do you feel

268
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: about Here's the thing? No, I do, I do. I

269
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: feel so good about it. I was like, as I

270
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: just it just it just to me. Just became more

271
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: and more clear over the past ten days. That days

272
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: you just finished ten minutes ago. No, but mcduffy, mcduffy,

273
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 1: I didn't finish mcduffy ten minute finished my six round

274
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: pick one hundred ninety six pick here for ten minutes ago.

275
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 1: But then he would be the guy. So in the

276
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 1: second round, I'm going offensive line because I spent all

277
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: this time talking about the offensive line. Okay, and I'm

278
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: going with the Ohio State buck Guys, My guys, Nicolas

279
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: Petite Ferry maybe one of the best run blockers in

280
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: the draft. Six five, three hundred fifteen pounds, Road greater

281
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: on the offensive line. So six five three fifteen yeah,

282
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: Road greater. Huh okay, wait late till it gets my

283
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: next yea. Okay, Yeah. So look, comes from a great program,

284
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: as you know, and he might be able to he

285
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: would be able to come in and help this offensive line.

286
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: He could be a bet he could. He could be

287
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: the swing tackle if there were injuries. Um maybe maybe,

288
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean he's big, guys, I don't you know. Maybe

289
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: he could kick into guard as an option there. But

290
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: run blocking is his forte and that is something that

291
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: the Ravens want to get back to being able to

292
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: do better this year, which is half success on the ground.

293
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: All right, petite Fery, Ohio State. Second round, No heaven?

294
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: All right? So third round, third round. You're a little

295
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: you're a little teeny offensive tackle there. It's gonna be dwarfed,

296
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: dwarfed by my guy, Daniel falle out of Minnesota six

297
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: foot eight, three eighty four. Yeah, I mean he and

298
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: Jordan Davis walked through the front door. You're like, oh

299
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: my god, we need to build. We need a bigger building.

300
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: Don't get in front of those guys in the buffet.

301
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: You're a dead man. You you really took Jeremiah's collect

302
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: big human beings. Think to a I did I did so?

303
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: Falle Man. I mean, this guy could be Orlando Brown

304
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: two point though honestly just a big dude needs some refinement,

305
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: you know, but like just hard to get around him.

306
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: He's so big, power blocker, he's you know, newer to

307
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: the game, grew up in Australia playing rugby. Love that

308
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: backstory once again. Um, I just think again, you know,

309
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: he can be your swing tackle and kind of develop

310
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: his skills and refine some of you know, uh know,

311
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: the stuff that he needs to prove on being a

312
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: late comer to the game behind Morgan Moses right, and

313
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I think Well, when I saw him at

314
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: at the Combine, I was impressed. The guy's huge, ye so,

315
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: and his press conference was impressive. I don't think he's

316
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: gonna make it to seventy six there for the Ravens.

317
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: The funny thing is, I was really like when I

318
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: saw him in the second round, I was like, oh, okay,

319
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm interested him in the second round. Now I keep

320
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: seeing him sliding. It's Lando Brown man, just sliding, sliding, slide.

321
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 1: I've seen him past seventy six. Maybe I just the

322
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: reason the rationale for me is I think that somebody's

323
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: going to be enamored with that size and the backstory.

324
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: Of course, Orlando Brown was huge too. He had the combine,

325
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: he had the disaster combine he did which Lee doesn't

326
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: have that correct, But there's some stuff on tape, like

327
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: you know, at the Senior Bowl, we got knocked on

328
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: his butt a couple of times. Like, there's some stuff

329
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: on tape that I think will give people some pause

330
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: and be like you're over here, you're over here talking

331
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: to games. Oh he's no, he's a great third round pick,

332
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 1: great third round pick. Maybe he doesn't get there. Maybe

333
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: he doesn't, but I think there's definitely of decent possibility.

334
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: And if he's there, the Ravens takeam. All right, Well,

335
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: I'm addressing pass rusher here because pass rusher is in

336
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 1: need for the Ravens. Um. You know. It's it's interesting

337
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: they've had success finding some late round guys. You know,

338
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: Matthew Judean was a great one. Zadaria Smith was, you know,

339
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,119
Speaker 1: fourth round pick. So they've had success with that. So

340
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: I think in the third round, number seventy six, they're

341
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: gonna take Nick Benito out of Oklahoma nineteen and a

342
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: half sacks in his college career seven last year, nine

343
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: the previous season. Ericcsta loves Oklahoma guys. Love so now

344
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: it's usually on the offense, but still loves Oklahoma guys.

345
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: Tony Jeffson, be happy, Tony Jefferson would be a very

346
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 1: happy camera. So I think that they addressed the pass rusher.

347
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,160
Speaker 1: I just you know, with with when when you get

348
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: past the first two rounds and you're looking for pass rusher,

349
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: you have to take you know, you have to make projections. Yeah,

350
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: and this is a guy from a big pro that

351
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: is also something you know. I know that that's something

352
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: that Da Costa said back in twenty twenty that they

353
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: prioritize was the big programs during the COVID draft. Yeah.

354
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: I mostly did that in my draft here as well.

355
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: It's prioritized some of the big programs. You know what

356
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: Washington is a biggish program about Ohio State, Oklahoma, and

357
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: then I've got some other big programs here. As I

358
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: go through the list, that was something that I stuck

359
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: with as a theme this year. I feel you there.

360
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: So I'm going to add rusher in the third round. Two. Um,

361
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: I'm on the pick. Wait that was seventy six for you? Yes, okay,

362
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: so this is for me pick one hundred yep, okay,

363
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: my second third round pick, and I'm going my Ji

364
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: Sanders out of Cincinnati, the edge rusher. So much for

365
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: a big school thing Cincinnati, I know, well, they just

366
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,479
Speaker 1: went to the final four. Yeah, yeah, they're coming off,

367
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: but they're not They're not like a blue blood college

368
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: football program. It's not Alabama, right, but I mean that's

369
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: a you know, big time school. I know they were

370
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: just they just in the coge football So great size,

371
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 1: six five to twenty eight, explosive first step, Like this

372
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: is a pass rusher, you know, uh good college production

373
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: thirteen has two twenty eight. He's six foot twenty eight lean,

374
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: so he is a lean guy. Yeah, he's more. He's

375
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 1: not like like my next guy you'll see is a

376
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: much bigger dude, six five seventy one, right, so he's

377
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 1: a little bit leaner. He can balk up a little bit,

378
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: but explosive off the snap, Like if you're talking about

379
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: a pass rusher, he's got that first step quickness. Um

380
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: emotional player who was a senior team captain, durable thirty

381
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: eight consecutive starts. This guy can get after the quarterback.

382
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: And I think that they're going to look to to

383
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: add another pass rusher. Well since Cincinnati, you know hardball knows,

384
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: uh yeah, you know, he used to coach there, so

385
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'd be fired up. Exactly exactly. I actually

386
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 1: I did look at the Cincinnati I mean, you know Cincinnati.

387
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: Of course, Sauce Gardner being at this top of that

388
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: list would have loved find a way to get him

389
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: to Baltimore. But I just think he's gone too early.

390
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: So I actually looked at a couple of guys from Cincinnati.

391
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: Look at my guy, I did. I also looked at

392
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: the running back, um, Jerome Ford right right right is

393
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 1: and I didn't take him, but I thought about him

394
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: as a mid round option. Um, don't worry, I got

395
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: another bigger guy on the edge too, all right, all right,

396
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: well yeah, well, well we won't need him because I'm

397
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: taking my guy, Nick Benito six three two fifty twenty

398
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: sacks in college, all right, my second third round pick.

399
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: So this is number one hundred. Yeah, I'm sticking with

400
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: the blue bloods. And Eric the Costa takes his first

401
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: guy from Oklahoma. Another one from Oklahoma. Sorry it's from Alabama. Sorry,

402
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: just all this is from Alabama cornerback Jalen Armoured Davis.

403
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: Now read the write up on six one ninety seven.

404
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: So you don't get the big guy in the first round,

405
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: but you follow up with the guy in the third

406
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: round who has a prototype size, big recruit coming out

407
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: of high school. Suffered an injury his freshman year, going

408
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: into his freshman year that put him on the sidelines.

409
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: So we had to spend some time watching in Oklahoma

410
00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: learning Alabama. I can't say in Oklahomahoma, he's gonna come

411
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: down when he hears this. I was gonna be like,

412
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: that's wrong with you? What Alabama Christen side? Uh? So

413
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: he had to watch him the sidelines. Then it was

414
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: kind of buried on the depth chart because there's so

415
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: many great players at Alabama. Yeah, sound anything like the

416
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: recent guy who's been here? Yeah? Yeah, good Anthony two.

417
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: This is my Anthony avorite two point one year as

418
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 1: a starter at Alabama. He's got the size, he's got

419
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 1: really good speed. The only real knock on him is

420
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: limited experience. But he's a bigger hoop coming out of

421
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: high school. Yeah. So you get a guy in the

422
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: third round who you know has potential day you know,

423
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: day one day, you know, early second round talent. Yeah,

424
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: I like this, I might best, might best Yet I'll

425
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: give it to you. I'm kind of feeling that one.

426
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: All right, all right, fourth round number one, ten, this

427
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: one's going I'm going back to back edge rushers. I'm

428
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: restocking that room. Right. This is Alex right out of

429
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: UAB and like I said, bigger dude, Right, this dude

430
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: is jail and ferguson size. So he's six foot five,

431
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: two seventy one and he's got great length, great athleticism.

432
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: I think he can even fill out a little bit more.

433
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: Maybe he's even a hand in the dirt defensive end.

434
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: He can collapse, you know, go down on the line.

435
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 1: Gives you some position flexibility. Twelve and a half sacks

436
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: in three seasons, high ceiling guy, very athletic coming out

437
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 1: of you. A d I like it, so you yeah,

438
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: I feel really good about that pick. Actually, Alex right,

439
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: that's really good. Now, that's that's the thing with my guy,

440
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: Maji like the leaner of pass us from the edges

441
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: that generally are kind of dude. Right, So I already

444
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: with it. You're like too small, Alex right. I know

445
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: it was kind of like a second. I feel like

Speaker 1: I'm that heavy after watch My Gun eight. But Alex right,

00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: Twenty and a half tackles for loss in college three

455
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 1: years starter. So he comes back home, hometown team, great

456
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 1: leadership ability, played at Stanford under David Shaw. Ravens are

457
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: gonna get good, get a good scouting report on him.

458
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a this is a dream come

459
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: true scenario for the Stanford kid to come back home

460
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 1: and play for his hometown team. All right, I don't

461
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 1: hate that pick. That's I kind of like that pick.

462
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna happen, but I kind of like it.

463
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: This was this was the fall in love with the

464
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: story from Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's it's it's elect

465
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: It's Gilman. It's a great college. Right, It's like Dalen Hayes. Yeah,

466
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 1: Dalen Hayes, local kid, local issh Yeah, like he didn't

467
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: grow up in Baltimore, but he was in this area

468
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 1: right right, right right, Ravens fan growing up. Yeah, all right,

469
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: I don't I don't hate that pick. The thing about

470
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: defensive tackle, though, is like, you know, obviously I took

471
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: one of the first round. Right here here comes the

472
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 1: defensive tackles don't matter even though it took one first round. No, no, no,

473
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. I'm just saying, like I took

474
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: Jordan Davis because best player of hell. Right, if you

475
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: don't take one, if you don't take Jordan Davis, like

476
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: how big is the need really at the position? Like

477
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: I think you I would wait until later in the

478
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 1: fourth or something like that to address defensive tackle if

479
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: I'm not just taking a stud like Jordan Davis, you

480
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, I get that. I

481
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: mean all these fourth round picks. Ram's got five fourth

482
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: ROUNP picks. Maybe maybe you could wait on him. But

483
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: Eric Tocasta also made the point of the combine that

484
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: they want to restock the room with young defensive lineman.

485
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: So they already brought in Michael Pearson. They resigned Calais Campbell,

486
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 1: so that's not going the young route. So they need

487
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: to get some options there, and I think Thomas Book.

488
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: You know what's the funny part is like you start thinking,

489
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: all right, well, Claiss, you know, to your contracts. He's

490
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: nearing the end of his career. Let's find a Clais

491
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 1: Campbell replacement, you know, to take over him. Like there's

492
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: no Bundy like that. Yeah, there's no Bundy. The six

493
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: foot eight, three hundred and thirty pound, three hundred and

494
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: twenty five pounds who can get to the quarterback guile

495
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: he played both ways. Well, that's the other great part

496
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: about Jordan Davis goal line. That is goal line, baby.

497
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: You actually like watching some of his goal one. Yeah,

498
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: we're drafted him, all right, fourth round number one, nineteen.

499
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: So this is my second fourth round pick. I'm taking

500
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: a running back out of Georgia. Yeah, I know, you're

501
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: taking Change Cook. No, I'm taking Zamir White. Interesting, who

502
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: was there? I was between he and James Cook. I

503
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: was really flip flopping between the two two different style backs.

504
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,880
Speaker 1: Zamir White was their their starting tailback, their lead guy. Right,

505
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 1: He's more of a little bit, bigger bodied, one cut

506
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: downhill runner. To me, he's a smaller version of Gus

507
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: Edwards maybe with a little more top end speed, but

508
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,199
Speaker 1: a physical, one cut downhill runner, which I think they

509
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 1: really missed in last year's offense without Gus. Gus is

510
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: coming off a pretty major knee injury obviously, and I

511
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 1: think the Ravens don't want to be shorthanded in that

512
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: area again. They need that kind of runner in this offense.

513
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,119
Speaker 1: And I think Zamir White also, Oh the backstory for

514
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 1: this kid, Holy cow. I mean, he had a leaking

515
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 1: kidney when he was born, wasn't expected to live past

516
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: a few weeks, was worn with a cleft palette. I

517
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: think his dad was in and out of jail in

518
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 1: his youth. I mean, this kid's overcome a lot to

519
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: get to where he is. I think that's a pick,

520
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: all right, That's a I thought you were gonna go

521
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: with James. Now. The interesting thing and why I was

522
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: debating James Cook is you know he's worn in the JK.

523
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 1: Dobbins mold. He's a great pass catcher, right, so if

524
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: you think, okay, well, maybe you know we find a

525
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: guy kind of like a Justice hill Ye speedy passage guy,

526
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: which I think that they wanted just JK. Last year

527
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: was really gonna have a bigger receiving role in this

528
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: offense before he was injured. That loss of that just

529
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: person playing that role, I think hampered this offense because

530
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: they were really banking on throwing to their running back

531
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: more so I thought, Okay, James Cook kind of can

532
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: fill that, but I think the physical, downhill one cut

533
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: runner is even more important to this offense than finding

534
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,199
Speaker 1: a pass catcher. Well, they're gonna they are gonna get

535
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: the pass catcher and a physical guy with my guy

536
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: in the fourth running back Kyron Williams out of Notre

537
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: Dame Team captain five nine, one hundred ninety four pounds.

538
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 1: He's top JK. Dobbins about five nine. For darn good,

539
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: isn't he? So he stopped a thousand rushing yards in

540
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: each of the last two seasons. He also had thirty

541
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: five receptions at least in each of the last two years.

542
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: So he's an do it all guy team captain. I

543
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 1: don't know if I already said that in the comparison

544
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 1: on Team captain when we're time's your red star guy

545
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: stars and us a red star, red star, blue star?

546
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: What is it? Red star? Right? Yeah? Yeah? And and

547
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 1: then the comps on him and reading some of the

548
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 1: write ups, you get James White, you get Dion Lewis,

549
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 1: some Austin Eckler stuff thrown around there, so he doesn't. Right,

550
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: So this is kind of the difference between what we

551
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 1: saw the Ravens, like what itch they wanted to scratch

552
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,880
Speaker 1: right right now? It's like I kind of took a GUS.

553
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: It's not a GUS replacement because GUS is expected to

554
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: be back, but like insurance pol insurance policy exactly, I

555
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: took the GUS insurance policy right whereas you're taking the JK.

556
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: Justice kind of insurance policy. Right. He's more of a

557
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: third down option than a first and second down option

558
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: right right now. See, And that's the thing for me.

559
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, there's the reports that they're interested

560
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: in Melvin Gordon, right yeah. And and so with your guy,

561
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: you know, is he somebody that you feel comfortable if

562
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: he had to step into the number two role or

563
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 1: like a prominent first and second down rushing you know role,

564
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: Like is that the guy? Is he gonna be able

565
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 1: to carry the load like that? Or is he a

566
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: scat back who you're throwing two and throw down? You

567
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like, so I kind of have

568
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: or do they sign Melvin Gordon? Right? But are they

569
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: gonna draft that guy? Your guy end sign a veteran?

570
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 1: Like if they draft your guy, I almost feel like

571
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: they still need the veteran insurance policy maybe, which maybe

572
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: for my Zamir White they do too. But I just

573
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: feel like Zamir White is more of the like, you

574
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: know what you're gonna get. If you need him to

575
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: step in and run the ball whatever, one hundred times,

576
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: he can do it two hundred times whatever, sure to

577
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 1: three hundred times, five times, he can do it everything. Man,

578
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: So yeah, I get it. I think, Uh, look, I

579
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: do both. It's interesting that both of us took a

580
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 1: running back at that spot because minds at one nineteen

581
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: where was also So we're at the same spot there,

582
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: and I do I do think the Ravens are going

583
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: to draft a running back, yeah, in this draft. And

584
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: I think the fourth round is going to be the

585
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: place They've done it multiple times. They did it with

586
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: Justice Hill, they did it with Buck Allen, they did

587
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: it with Kenneth Dixon. So that fourth round has kind

588
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: of been a spot where they have gone to a lot,

589
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 1: uh to address running back and I think that could

590
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: once again be the case this year. And you know,

591
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: I honestly went back and forth on a few different guys.

592
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: I you know, I left the Georgia guys off for

593
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: me because I knew that you were interested in the

594
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: Georgia guys. For the record, if we draft James Cook,

595
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: I get half a point on that. Well, I I

596
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 1: was gonna date James Cook, but you told me you

597
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 1: were gonna take him, so I didn't take him, so them. Yeah,

598
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: So all right, we're gonna take a quick break. When

599
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: we come back, we'll give you the final four picks

600
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: in this year's draft. All right. Before we finished up

601
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: the mock draft, I want fans to know that the

602
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: sports landscape is always changing and you can play some

603
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: daily fantasy sports with Draft Kings. This still has daily

604
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 1: fantasy contests running for those who are looking to have

613
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,120

Speaker 1: fourth round is gonna It's gonna be insane. I just

615
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: think of that meme with like you know the room

00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: tell you that my keyboard is not working? The A

620
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: key I have to like, Well, it's bad. You better

621
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: get it. You better get an upgrade your guy filele

622
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: who else got an A in their name? George Das, Yeah,

623
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: is gonna have like one A in it? It's bad.

624
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: I gotta get that fixed before the draft or it's

625
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: gonna be a problem. Yea. Anyway, still in the fourth round.

626
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: One thing I did want to wrap up with on

627
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: the running backs both of us taking one at the

628
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: same spot is I was really debating taking a tight

629
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: end there. Also. I had a tough time between the

630
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: need between running back tight end and wide receiver. Right,

631
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: I would say wide receiver the needs at the bottom

632
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: of that last, but really running back in tight end

633
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: like you know, at tight end. You look at Nick Boyle,

634
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 1: who really struggled to come back from the knee last year.

635
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: Obviously we all hope that he's back to his previous

636
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 1: self this year, but you need to start looking at

637
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: options there. And they lost Eric Tomlinson, which I think

638
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 1: people are kind of sleeping on how much of a

639
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: loss that could potentially be, especially if Boil is not right.

640
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: So you need a you kind of need a tight end.

641
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: But running back, it's like in a run based offense.

642
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: They do not want to be short shorthanded there. So

643
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 1: I almost feel like the insurance policy. That's why I

644
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: went running back in the fourth round. When I was

645
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: also looking at fourth round tight ends. Well, I mean

646
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: to be honest, I'm gonna take a tight end here

647
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: at yeah, and I don't like to me you're saying like, oh,

648
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: I debated the tight end. You can kind of flip

649
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: somebody's pits. I mean, we're talking about, you know, seven

650
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: spots apart, so it's not really that big difference. But

651
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: I took I took tight end Jake Ferguson out of

652
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: Wisconsin at one twenty eight, so there's nine spots. Mister

653
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: math once again your math is excellent, whatever it is,

654
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Um so he sorry, Jake, Jake, you'really

655
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: worried about my attraction and you're doing the math. Jake

656
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: Ferguson out of Wisconsin, Okay, six five, two fifty. So

657
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: he played at Wisconsin. That's a run heavy offense. So

658
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: it's not like he put up huge passing numbers. He

659
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: was around four hundred and fifty receiving yards in each

660
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: of the last four years. Football family grandson of legendary

661
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 1: Wisconsin ry Alvarez, six foot five, six five, two fifty.

662
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: So you know, like he has good ball skills and

663
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: can catch the ball. It's kind of a traditional tight end,

664
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: Like he's not gonna rival Mark Andrews in terms of

665
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: his production, but he can. He's not like, you know,

666
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: boil Is very much. He's boil Is like kind of

667
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,520
Speaker 1: a unicorn, and that he's such a well established blocker. Like, yes,

668
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: he can catch the ball, obviously, but he is like

669
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 1: you you look at him, he's so big, he's so big.

670
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: So like in Ferguson's kind of in the middle. And

671
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of if you if you if

672
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: you're looking at adding a tight end, it's like, well,

673
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: what is the flavor that you want? Do you want

674
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: to give yourself a Nick Boyle insurance policy if he's

675
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 1: you know, and the insurance policy is kind of the

676
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 1: word of the podcast here because we're all these different

677
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 1: injuries at corner of line running back tight ends, like

678
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: how do you how do you structure that? Or you know,

679
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: I think the Ravens would love to have a Hayden

680
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: Hurst type player in this offense. And Hayden was a

681
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: pretty good blocker. He was, and so it's like, you know,

682
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: you get a guy who can who can make some catches.

683
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 1: You know, Ferguson is not like the top end athlete

684
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: that Hayden Hurst is, um, but you know, Hayden Hurst

685
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,879
Speaker 1: was the first round can you pitch? Yes? He say,

686
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 1: I should have looked at his baseball ability. So but

687
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: he's you know, but he has that kind of mixture

688
00:34:55,800 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 1: of of being like good enough blocker but also good

689
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: enough blocker. What was the scouting report on his block amazing, amazing,

690
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: amazing blocker, amazing receiver, ideal. They said, basically, he's a

691
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 1: quality a solid blocker, n solid blocker, but he plays

692
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 1: he plays in this run heavy Wisconsin scheme. So okay,

693
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: all right, so he's got experience of experience, Okay, all right,

694
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: all right, don't hate it. Uh, fourth round number one,

695
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 1: twenty eight, I'm going with a cornerback, just like you

696
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: doubled it a corner I think the Ravens are gonna

697
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: do the same there. Um So I went with Jalen

698
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 1: Watson from Washington State. Again. The backstory is phenomenal. This

699
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: is zero star recruit zero. This is like my recruiting prowess.

700
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,800
Speaker 1: You know, guy just fought for everything. He worked with

701
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: his mom at a Wendy's before he went out to

702
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: Washington State while he's getting his grades up going out there, big,

703
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: big press corner, six foot two, one ninety seven. This

704
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,800
Speaker 1: is something you can kind of groom into. You know.

705
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,080
Speaker 1: Jimmy Smith was the first round pick, right, but like

706
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 1: in that kind of big mold diversifies what the Ravens

707
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 1: have at cornerback. They lost Chris Restree. He was a

708
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: bigger guy. He can kind of step in. He's only

709
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: played fifteen FBS games. But the tools are all there,

710
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: the physicality, the the ball tracking skills, the ball production,

711
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 1: ball production, the tools, the desire, the backstory, the wedd

712
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? Did you hear the Weddy spark? You're

713
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: just gonna arg with this mom at when do you

714
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: even do you even like consider watch the Harris highlights?

715
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: You just you just read all of the backstories, Like,

716
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if this guy has even played football,

717
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: but he's got an incredible backstory that it's gonna be

718
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: jail and Watson Man Washington State. Yep, the zero star

719
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 1: guy coming out of zero star guy, fought for everything.

720
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 1: Man coaches dream, coaches a dream. So that was your

721
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: That was one twenty eight. So look, I think, I mean,

722
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 1: that's not the pick, but that we do agree that

723
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: the Ravens will double dip at cornerback. Yeah, did you

724
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: have a double dip ddresher, Yeah, you just took one.

725
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: I had a double dip somewhere else. I had a

726
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 1: double dip on the offensive line right here, one thirty

727
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 1: nine center. Well, it's Marquis Hayes out of Oklahoma, actually

728
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: out of Oklahoma. Actually I actually out of Oklahoma. Massive guy.

729
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: Now I'm just collecting big people like you did at

730
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: at the top of the draft. Six five three twenty

731
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: four pounds. Here's the issue that I ran into with center.

732
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: You're already tucking yourself out of No, no, no, no,

733
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: I think he's I mean run blocking again. Guard, he's

734
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 1: a guard? Well, yes, he's. He could also he can

735
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 1: basically play He can play all five positions along the

736
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: offensive line. He could play tackle. That's the thing here.

737
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:39,919
Speaker 1: Here's honestly the challenge that I ran into a center,

738
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: Like I would love to just get a center. But

739
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 1: I don't think the Ravens are gonna draft a guy

740
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 1: who's just been a college center. Like I don't think

741
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: they're looking for like the Bozeman was mostly a he

742
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: was a college center. I don't think they're gonna draft

743
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: the guy who just was a college center. I think

744
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,720
Speaker 1: that as erics Costa Stead in the pre draft press conference,

745
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: they're making projections of guys who have been tackles and

746
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: guards who can pretend actually slide inside to play center.

747
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:03,919
Speaker 1: That's what they did with Ryan Jensen. But they also

748
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: said that this year's center class had more true centers.

749
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: It was deeper at true center. But they also like

750
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: they also have some guys and who they think could shift. Yeah, yeah,

751
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: so they like that ability. So my guy, Marquis Hayes,

752
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: he did he played tackle out of Oklahoma. He played

753
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: tackle and okay, all right, okay, so versatility there. I

754
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: have a center later on. So fourth round one thirty

755
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: nine for me, I'm taking a linebacker, Brandon Smith out

756
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: of Penn State. This is the former number one in

757
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: the nation recruit at inside linebacker his year coming out,

758
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: number eighteen recruit in the country overall at any position.

759
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: So big time high school recruit, very athletic, great size,

760
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: six foot three, two fifty we're talking Malik Harrison's size. Yeah, right,

761
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 1: So he can be the downhill kind of thumper once

762
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: I think he gets a little bit better just understanding

763
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 1: of reading runs, run schemes, and whatnot, which Josh Spines

764
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: can help him with. Great you know, guy in coverage

765
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: can turn and run match up with guys. Obviously, he'll

766
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: have to feel out the space issues, but he has

767
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: the coverage ability at inside linebacker with the big body,

768
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:12,280
Speaker 1: talking special teams, maven just running down the field blowing

769
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,239
Speaker 1: people up with his size. I think a great replacement

770
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: for Chris Board who left uh and to slide into

771
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 1: if Millie Harrison ends up playing more outside linebacker, can

772
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: kind of slide into that position as well. So this

773
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 1: is an honest question. So he's out of Penn State also,

774
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: which you know Erk koslos Penn State because his daughter good.

775
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: So so here's here's my question on him. So bigger

776
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: crew come out of high school. But then you've got

777
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 1: him here late in the fourth Yeah, he just the

778
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: tape isn't there's some holes in the tape. Okay, just

779
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: needs a little bit more play recognition, you know, seeing

780
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: the run, anticipation, that kind of stuff. Josh Bynes can

781
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 1: help him th all that, of course, Josh Binns McDonald

782
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 1: pet quin exactly. All right, I don't that's your best pick.

783
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 1: That's I think that's the only one you've got. You think, Yeah,

784
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 1: I think that's true. That might be your best pick.

785
00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 1: You know, I did not take an inside linebacker. Thought

786
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: about that. UM kind of struggle with that one because

787
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: I think if you're not drafting that like very early,

788
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: but you need some depth there, especially if Malik is

789
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: changing positions. If Milik is if they're really viewing him,

790
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 1: is more of an outside linebacker, then the depth then

791
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 1: becomes even more. Chris board played some defensive snaps last year.

792
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: He did, Yeah, so you kind of need now maybe

793
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: Christian Welch steps into that position, right, But I feel

794
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 1: like they just they lost, you know, some inside linebackers

795
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,640
Speaker 1: and they need some help there. They need some young depth.

796
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: All right, pick number one, forty one here in the

797
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: fourth round, I'm dipping into wide receiver for the first time.

798
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 1: M okay, I am taking Romeo Dubes out of Nevada,

799
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: six foot two, Romeo Dubes out of you got the

800
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 1: best names so far, Yes, six two. I don't know

801
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 1: if I'm pronouncing that right, but at six two, two

802
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: hundred one pounds, back to back thousand yard seasons, twenty

803
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 1: six touchdowns in his career at Nevada. So the Ravens,

804
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, this week, release Miles Boykin. They get a

805
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: good sized guy here with Dubes, six two two one,

806
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: can play special teams, has return experience. The Ravens need returners.

807
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 1: They've got two good ones in Duvena and Prochetu. I

808
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: mean duven A Pro Bowl returners. So but it's just

809
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: a little insurance there. And I think if you're drafting

810
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: a mid round wide receiver, you want to just have

811
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: some versatility guy that can do a lot. So yeah,

812
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 1: so I do think I do not think the Ravens

813
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: are gonna sit out wide receiver, even though it's not

814
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: a huge need. I got when the sixth round. Um so,

815
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,720
Speaker 1: But for my last fourth round pick, I am drafting

816
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,359
Speaker 1: a center, Ben Brown out of Old Miss. You want

817
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,760
Speaker 1: a big center, This one's the biggest one in the class.

818
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:49,240
Speaker 1: Six foot five, three hundred and twelve pounds, powerful run blocker,

819
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 1: thickly built. We're talking what's the name when the bubble butt?

820
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 1: We're talking bubbo. But right, also play guards, so there

821
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: is some position flexible ability there. Um graduated cum laude. Oh,

822
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: smart guy going for his masters in health health promotion,

823
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: so required smarts. Uh, you can develop them, can be

824
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 1: in the mix to start. I think that's a home

825
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 1: run pick. Ben Brown. You do have, you do have

826
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,880
Speaker 1: all the kind of center and tangibles there getting his masters. Ye,

827
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:26,399
Speaker 1: he's big, yep. Um just don't want him too smart.

828
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 1: You don't want him rhil smart. Then they go back

829
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 1: to school. Yeah, yeah, true, too smart? So is he

830
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:34,759
Speaker 1: is he gonna be there at the end of the

831
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: fourth round? Yes, until we take him? No, seriously, some

832
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 1: people don't even have Some people like don't even have

833
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: him as a draftful prospect. I got them the opinions

834
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:55,360
Speaker 1: are he'll be there. That's not how good he'll be,

835
00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 1: but he'll be there, perfect, perfect. You sold me on

836
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:11,879
Speaker 1: him until then? Are you all right with my last pick? Here?

837
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 1: All right? Now? This is uh once again big guy

838
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 1: here to round things out. So one six six round

839
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: defensive line. You're taking two defensive linemen as Eric to

840
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: Costa is interesting. The Ravens want to restock the cover

841
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 1: there defense line. Okay, I mean just so you double

842
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,760
Speaker 1: depth on defensive line in corner but not edge rusher. Correct,

843
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: correct and correct and like on the defensive line. Who

844
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: knows what's gonna happen with Derek Wolfe. So all of

845
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like, how set are you at defensive

846
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: It's true, that's kind of why I took the bigger

847
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,919
Speaker 1: body guy with my guy Olex right, my best pick. Yeah,

848
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,760
Speaker 1: So here we go. So it's EO, I'm gonna give

849
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 1: me a second. Here here we go. Ewo zarika ewa

850
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:04,920
Speaker 1: zarik yeah o ewa ewa zerika. Okay, iwa stay? Did

851
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: I did? I had the pronunciation thing? Really? Yeah? Let

852
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: me see. Yeah. Uh six foot six, three hundred and

853
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: fifteen pounds, big boy out of Iowa stated, I love

854
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,319
Speaker 1: your notes. Iowa state six six three sixteen massive. That's

855
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: all you have written down. He's a six yround pick. Here.

856
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: It's like the end. It's the because I don't that's

857
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 1: the thing. You You have all your notes written out

858
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: so you know exactly how you're gonna say. I just

859
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 1: had this incredible recall of all the tape that I wanted.

860
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: That's this is the guy that you found two minutes

861
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:35,320
Speaker 1: before you started recording. You you collect big guys, developmental

862
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 1: prospect to help round out exactly you're round out the

863
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: defensive line at the end of the draft. I love

864
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,959
Speaker 1: this pick. Love it all right, Okay, I'm going wide

865
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 1: receiver because I agree with you. It's just hard to

866
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 1: imagine them sitting out at wide receiver. Um, even though

867
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: you know you look at it and there's five guys

868
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: who right now you say they're on the fifty three.

869
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: Yeah right, I mean you have Marquise Bateman, h DuVernay

870
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: Proche and Thayland Wallace. Right, so you're like, I think

871
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: gonna spend a draft pick. Maybe they go undrafted, you know.

872
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: So I was really again here debating do you use

873
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: a tight end in the sixth round and get some

874
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 1: bigger body kind of blocking tight end. So you didn't

875
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: take a tight end at all. Yeah, I did not

876
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: take a tight end, and I was really debating what

877
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,720
Speaker 1: to do there. I think that the Ravens, like Tony

878
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,040
Speaker 1: Poljan undrafted six foot seven, two hundred and fifty pound

879
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 1: two hundred fifty one pound tight end that they got

880
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: last year out of Virginia, maybe he can step into

881
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,760
Speaker 1: the Thomlinson roll and kind of be an insurance policy

882
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 1: to Nick Boyle and they don't have to spend a

883
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: draft pick on it. So like you, I just Eric

884
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 1: Decasa has previously said when he took over a general manager,

885
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 1: you have to keep taking shots at wide receiver. If

886
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: you're gonna hit on some you got to keep taking shots. Yea.

887
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 1: And traditionally I feel like recently they've wanted they've taken

888
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 1: earlier shots. Obviously two first round picks for Eric in

889
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 1: his first three years at GM, and then also mid

890
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 1: round picks to kind of back it up with Boykin, Thayland,

891
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 1: Wallace DuVernay. Then Proche was I think a fifth rounder,

892
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,840
Speaker 1: sixth rounders. So this is kind kind of in that mold.

893
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 1: So this is bow Melton out of Rutgers. Rutgers dogs, dogs.

894
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,439
Speaker 1: Taylon Young came out of there dogs, so this guy

895
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 1: hasn't you know that was pen I was still dogs anyway. Um,

896
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: dude's got some speed four three four at the combine. Uh,

897
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: so he can put up some numbers. He just didn't

898
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: put up big stats in college. I mean, he didn't

899
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,320
Speaker 1: go over six hundred and fifty receiving yards in college.

900
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: But that's also because of their offense, spotty quarterback play.

901
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 1: But he's the yards after catch guy. Um, you know,

902
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: not a big body guy. I was also like, you debating,

903
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,320
Speaker 1: all right, do I try to find like a perimeter

904
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: blocker because now with Miles Boykin moving on, you don't

905
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 1: really have like a six foot two, six foot three

906
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: perimeter blocker, which you sold in twenty nineteen with Boykin

907
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 1: and Seth Roberts both good perimeter blockers that really helped

908
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: kind of take that rushing game to another level. Um,

909
00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: But I just I didn't I didn't feel great about

910
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,359
Speaker 1: any of the bigger body guys. There. There's a kid

911
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 1: out of Notre Dame, and I was like, do we

912
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 1: get Boykin's replacement as another kid out of Notre Dame

913
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 1: that maybe they could go with. But at the end

914
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,799
Speaker 1: of the day, bow Melton, I think is still has

915
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:14,360
Speaker 1: a toughness to be uh, you know, ken block on

916
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: the edge and the speed when you're looking down the road.

917
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: Maybe he could be a guy you know that helps

918
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: kind of diversify this offense a little bit more. Also,

919
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 1: Raven's looking for athletes to your team, Captain. Uh, I

920
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: like him a right play special teams. So would you

921
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 1: think you got any of them? Right? Oh? Yeah, oh

922
00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:36,880
Speaker 1: obviously I said ten? All right, my favorite picks I

923
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: really think I started very strong then just Jordan Davis.

924
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,720
Speaker 1: Great pick Kyler Gordon if he gets there. I actually,

925
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,960
Speaker 1: like I said of the combine when I did, one

926
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,800
Speaker 1: of those two players who I think, Kyler Gordon I

927
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 1: think is a really good second round pick. Yeah, so

928
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 1: if he gets there in the second round, he might not.

929
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna be tricky if he's there and we didn't

930
00:47:57,600 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 1: draft the first round corner. I would be shocked if

931
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 1: Kyler Gordon isn't the pickle and the third are you

932
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,800
Speaker 1: kidding me? Yes, he's gone. Alex Wright might be my

933
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: best pick. As I said, then you followed up with

934
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 1: a mere weight back to back. Well, it's right, sorry, right, wit, Yeah, yeah, yes,

935
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: I'll tell I'll tell you who I mean. Trey mcduffy.

936
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 1: To me, that was just to don't overthink it, don't

937
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,440
Speaker 1: overthink it, and you get a really good player in

938
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 1: a position to need don't overthink the room. That's a

939
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 1: great pick. And then I love my Thomas Booker, the

940
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: Gilman kid comes back, and I also love my Kyrn

941
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: Williams out of Notre Dame. I love all of them,

942
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 1: but those are the running back. Yeah, that's yeah, So

943
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: I love I love this mock that I've got. So look, listeners,

944
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,720
Speaker 1: tell us who you think has a better mock draft.

945
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 1: You know. The other thing I try to avoid this year,

946
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 1: because I have fallen victim to this in past years,

947
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: is to like basically be like, all right, I'm taking

948
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 1: Trent McDuffie in the first and then I'm gonna follow

949
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 1: that up with Trevor Penning, and it's like that's not

950
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 1: gonna happen. That's a zero percent chance. You know. I

951
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 1: tried to avoid unrealistic expectations here. Okay, we try to

952
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 1: keep it really yeah, So but listeners, let us know
