So the 56 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: Poke home is just down the road. Obviously a broadcaster 57 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: came out of Columbia that you may be familiar with, 58 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: Lindsey Nelson yes, so one of the greatest of all time. 59 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 1: And again, great great heritage, great community up.

A lot of good things happening in Columbia, Tennessee. 65 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: There are a few Titans fans here, I understand. Do 66 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: I hear that? Right? Are there Titans fans there? It 67 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: is I have never come to Columbia, I have never 68 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: come to Murray County where I have not experienced a 69 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: lot of Titans fans. So that's one of the reasons 70 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: we wanted to come here, is to say thanks to 71 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: all of you for the fantastic support of our football team. 72 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: Invite you to come to Nissan Stadium and see us 73 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: this fall because our plan is to win a championship. 74 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: That's what this is all about, right and hopefully this 75 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,799 Speaker 1: is the tour towards that we are beginning here in Colombia. 76 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: That's awesome.

That we can't give everybody 86 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: a T shirt, but we have the bobbleheads on the 87 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: T shirt.

It looks 90 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: like Mount Rushmore of Titans Radio. That's outstanding. The bubbleheads 91 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: are truly something that has taken on a life of 92 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: its own, especially with Coach Mac. I mean, he was 93 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: the originator of the bobble head. But the way that 94 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: they've come, Randy, you and your crew have been Jane 95 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: Ann borderline ridiculous in all the best ways.

It is the ever reliable Rhett Brian. 109 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: Welcome rad You glad to be here, Glad to be here. 110 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: All right, So we're getting ready for draft coverage. The 111 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: draft is now nineteen days away. Rat what will Titans 112 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: Radio provide in terms of overall coverage? So on that 113 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: Thursday night, April twenty eighth, we will have coverage that 114 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: begins at six on Titans Radio pre draft coverage that 115 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: hour with our longtime draft expert and friend Mike de Tillier. 116 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: We'll have some interviews from some of the draftees. We'll 117 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: have a lot to cover in that first hour, and 118 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: then at seven o'clock we go straight to Pick My 119 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: Pick coverage of round one and that will be on 120 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: Titans Radio throughout the night.

That begins at 123 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: six o'clock. And we are just getting primed and ready. 124 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: It's good to be here in front of all the 125 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: Murray County's finest and ready to talk draft. You guys 126 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: prepare for draft in a way that is just so thorough. 127 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: Kind of describe for me the process that you guys 128 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: go through to get ready for the draft, because I 129 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: would argue there's no radio team that preps in the 130 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: way that Rhett and Mac do for the draft every year. Well, 131 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, I have been to Columbia 132 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: a lot. We came down here and did several photo 133 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: shoots and of course Randy Wilmore and Cindy and this 134 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: is a great place, y'all. I mean I grew up 135 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: in a place a lot like this in West Texas 136 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: and is this is my kind of stuff down here. 137 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: This is perfect. I was involved in real draft for 138 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: teams for thirty one years. There's a process that you 139 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: go through to be able to do it, and so 140 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: when I came with Radio, they had they did a draft. 141 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: I came back in here from California after I'd done 142 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: the first year of broadcasting, and Mike Keith said, would 143 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: you come back to do the draft? And I said sure. 144 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: I had no idea how they did it here. I 145 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: knew how I'd done it for thirty one years, you know, professionally, 146 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: But when I got here and did my first draft, 147 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: I went bowl. They know what they're doing, and so 148 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: anyway we try, I try to prepare. I do prepare 149 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: just like I prepare for a broadcast, just like when 150 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: I was coaching. So we put a lot of work 151 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: into this. I mean, you can see the notebooks that 152 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: we have here now. I think, Rhet that you and 153 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: I cross checked how many players, one hundred and thirteen players, 154 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: which will probably take us through you know, quite a 155 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: bit of the draft. But it takes a lot of 156 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: film work. It takes a lot of background work. Rhet 157 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: does a lot of the background stuff with all my 158 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: connections in the league. I talked to people go to 159 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: the Combine, Mike Keith goes to the Senior Bowl. I 160 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: watch a lot of film on these players and just 161 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 1: to give us a chance, you know, because listeners, I mean, 162 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: this is a sophisticated listener group in Tennessee. They know 163 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 1: what football is about out and they want to get 164 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: some good information. And you're going to get good information 165 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: from us. We're not always gonna be a one hundred 166 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: percent right, because the draft's not about one hundred percent right, 167 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: but it's about being thorough, and we're thorough. What is 168 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: the most important part of what you do with coach 169 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: mac rit? I think it's the idea of, you know, 170 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: looking at and as we cross reference what other national 171 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: pundits and draft experts are saying, lining up with what 172 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: coach mac has seen on film, so that we can 173 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: see is there any outlier It's like, well, wait a minute, 174 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: this guy gave a completely different description and was kind 175 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: of almost critical of this player. Whereas most of what 176 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: we look at, Okay, that's what I saw. That sounds 177 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: exactly like what we're looking at. And I like to 178 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: do the background dicking. I really like to be able 179 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 1: to get the human interest stories because there are people 180 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: just like we are that just happened to be under 181 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: the biggest stage in the world and playing National Football 182 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 1: League football. But I'd like to check their background with 183 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: family history, where their parents athletes. What's an interesting story. 184 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: Give you an example. You know, Marcus Jones is a 185 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: cornerback from Houston. He has an album that he's released. 186 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: He's yeah, good too. I was playing it in the office. 187 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: It's amazing. There is a young man who is an 188 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: interior offensive lineman in this draft from the University of Nebraska, 189 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: Cam Jurgens, who has his own beef jerky company. I 190 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: mean now that the name, image and likeness thing has 191 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: become a big deal in college, these kids are latching 192 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: onto it. They're coming in to the league now as 193 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: young entrepreneurs, and so that just spices up the flavor 194 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: of you know, what their background is like. But you know, 195 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: once we get through a couple of three layers of things, 196 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 1: I've created these books today for us to use on 197 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: the OTP tour, and so we started the tearing process. 198 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: You build the draft board vertically and horizontally, and then 199 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: you start to put those players in pods and so 200 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: We've done that in tier process in all positions. So 201 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: Tier one is more than likely someone who will be 202 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: taken in the first round, maybe the very top of 203 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: round two. Tier two is in the early middle rounds 204 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: there and rounds two, three, and Tier three would be 205 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: rounds four and on out and maybe even down to 206 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent situation. So we've done that. Now, 207 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: this thing we've been doing, it will change in the 208 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: next two and a half weeks before we get to 209 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: you know, draft night, because information comes out, and that's 210 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: the whole thing, is gleaning information, whether it's medical history, 211 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: personal history, whatever it is, along with the stats and 212 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: the film that coach Max's well and rhet rais is 213 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: a good point because they're not just doing the digging 214 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: and kind of aggregating what the national pundits are saying. 215 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: They're watching tape for their own they're doing their own work. 216 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: And I'm glad that everybody who's here today can see 217 00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,080 Speaker 1: these binders because these things are sick. I mean, there 218 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: is a lot of information in these notebooks, and so 219 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: I think that's part of what makes the Titans radio 220 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: coverage so great, is that you're getting these notebooks worth 221 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: of information into your brain. I'm interested to know and 222 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: coach Mac, I want to start with you, and then 223 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: Redd I want you to take it too. Is there 224 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 1: a player in this draft that is maybe the most 225 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: disputed in terms of positive mid range reviews and then 226 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: negative In other words, anything you read about this player 227 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: can be all over the road. Yeah, Kenny Pickett from Pittsburgh. 228 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: You know, it's a quarterback. And you know, for everybody, 229 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: there's two drafts every year in the National Football League. 230 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: There's a positional draft and then there's a quarterback draft. 231 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: They're completely separate, they're completely opposite because if you need 232 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: a quarterback, you've got to go get him, because if 233 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: you don't have a quarterback, really, what you have in 234 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: this league is a highly paid rugby team. I mean, 235 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: that's what you got. So you got you got to 236 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: go get a quarterback. And there's a lot of dispute 237 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: on Kenny Pickett. There's a lot of good and bad, 238 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: and the boards are going to the board in draft 239 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: rooms all thirty two. I'm going to look different on 240 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: Kenney Pickett at Max right, because how many times in 241 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: the last few drafts have we seen a guy like 242 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: a Kenney Pickett who had one great ear in college 243 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: and it you know, Joe Burrow, Yeah, sure, but there's 244 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: defensive players from Clemson. There's a lot of those that 245 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: came out like that. But when you double down and 246 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: not only do you have the one great year and 247 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:32,239 Speaker 1: it's a quarterback, that becomes a lightning rod for conversation. 248 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: And I think he's right. Kenney Pickett would be who 249 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: I would talk about as well. It's interesting with him because, 250 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: like I think, Daniel Jeremiah has him number eighteen on 251 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: his overall prospect list as the top quarterback, and yet 252 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people see him going sixth to the 253 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers. Well to my point exactly, and Daniel Jeremiah 254 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 1: is one of the guys that you know, I talked 255 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: to some, but Daniel Jeremiah really really Mike, I leaned 256 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: towards people put together evaluations, people that have done it 257 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: for a living, you know. I mean, you can be 258 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: an expert and put all the lists together you want. 259 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: If there's no consequences for your list, doesn't matter. I mean, 260 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah has done it, whereas Mortgage has been on 261 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: the line for it. So he's and he's right, I 262 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: mean about where if if you're just talking about one 263 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 1: through whatever, just a pure athletic ability compared to other positions, 264 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: that's probably about where he is. And so but the 265 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: sixth spot, they need a quarterback there. So as that 266 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: goes to my point, if you need a quarterback, it 267 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: doesn't you don't care where he ranks with any of 268 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: the other players. You care where he ranks as far 269 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: as your need for a quarterback. My thing with Carolina though, 270 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: and maybe you can hit this first, is is Kenny 271 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: Pickett much different than Sam Darnald. I mean, Sam Darnold 272 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: was another prospect who when he went to the Jets, 273 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: everybody was all over the board about whether he was 274 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 1: good enough or not. And is it just a matter 275 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: of you're taking another guy in the same or you 276 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: feel like you need an upgraded version of that model. Yeah, 277 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: I kind of agree with you. I think that there's 278 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: a lot of similarities in their stories, their skill sets, 279 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: the things that they're able to do. So then you 280 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: have to start looking at some of the other guys 281 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: who are on this list, And the person who interests 282 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: me for Carolina is Malik Willis. I think that that's 283 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: an interesting thing because they have Sam Donald. So is 284 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: he someone who you know? He played at Liberty, so 285 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: it's a little smaller school, it's a little different experience 286 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: level there. But it seems like there's a lot of 287 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: upside for him. And so now he almost has the 288 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: opportunity to take like a red shirt year and be 289 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: behind Sam Donald. Is that something that they might consider? Oh, 290 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: can Matt Rule afford a red shirt year right now? 291 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: Because if Matt Rule doesn't have a good year in 292 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: year three, is the head coach of the Carolina Panthers, 293 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: he ain't gonna be coaching whomever the quarterback is going forward. Well, 294 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: and let me just say something to the point of 295 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold. Sam Arnold was a stopgap guy to begin 296 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: with when they sign him. But the big difference between 297 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: if you think you're to be there for a while 298 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: getting a Kenney Pickett as far as and letting him 299 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: replace a Sam Darnold at some point during the season. 300 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: He might not start from day one. But is the 301 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: salary the money right? The money is big, and the 302 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: way the money is going for quarterbacks now, it's huge. 303 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: It's a big percentage of your salary cap. And if 304 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: you can get a rookie quarterback. It is functional, then 305 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: you can build around him very much easier if you're 306 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: rebuilding a roster than building a round a veteran quarterback 307 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: that's taken a lot of your cap you're listening to 308 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: the OTP presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans. Look to 309 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: the folks at Farm Bureau Health Plans when you need 310 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: someone who knows the healthcare coverage game plan. They've been 311 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: protecting Tennessee AND's for seventy five years. Farm Bureau Health 312 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: Plans will also be the sponsor of Titan's Radio's draft 313 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: coverage on Thursday, April the twenty eighth, the entire first round, 314 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: on Friday, April the twenty ninth, the entire second and 315 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: third round Rhett Bryan. There will be one hundred five 316 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: total picks. We will be joined by former NFL and 317 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: University of Tennessee offensive lineman Ramone Foster. That is correct 318 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: excited about that. So, in preparing for this, and in 319 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: knowing Coach max expertise, and in knowing your expertise, we 320 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: ask you, guys, because we'll have one hundred and five 321 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: picks to put together one hundred and fifty players. One 322 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty players were calling it the Coach mack 323 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: one fifty. It does the Coach mackevenue. You can lose 324 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy two pounds four days on the 325 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,479 Speaker 1: Coach mac one Not true, completely not true, and they 326 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: are not a sponsor of the OTP. But anyway, the 327 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 1: pot we just throw out lies. So we put together 328 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: the hundred and fifty players with the idea that more 329 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: than likely those hundred and five that will be selected 330 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: will be among the Coach mac one fifty. How did 331 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: you guys go about doing that? So, as I mentioned 332 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: a few minutes ago, we start working with a draft 333 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 1: board that's built vertically and then moves out horizontally. And 334 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 1: so we're at the stage right now two and a 335 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: half weeks out where we have players in tiers every position, quarterback, lineback, 336 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: or whatever you want. And so you know, we'll go 337 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: into who are the quarterbacks in tier one? These are 338 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: the guys that are the top of the pick of 339 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: the letter here, and they're the ones that are more 340 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: likely to be taken on the first night of the draft, 341 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 1: in round one or very early in night two. So 342 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, when we start looking at it that way, 343 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: and we just went through it positionally and very quickly 344 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: got to one hundred and fifty players because we would 345 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: conference about, all right, this guy is in, this guy 346 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: should be in, this guy should be in. And sure 347 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 1: enough we got through the offense park and we had 348 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: right about just half of the one fifties, so we 349 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: knew we were on the right track. We really didn't 350 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: mean to do that. We were just putting people, you're 351 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: just so good. No, we're not smart enough to do that. 352 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 1: We really didn't. We really didn't mean to do it, 353 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 1: just half and half, but we just went, you know, 354 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: thinking of people that probably have a chance to be 355 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: taken in those first two days. So let's start talking 356 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: a little bit here. Let's get into this coach mac 357 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: one fifty that's not going to help anybody lose weight. 358 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: And let's talk about quarterbacks. Here are the seven that 359 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: you guys have chosen quarterbacks Kenny Pickett, Sam Howell, Malik Willis, 360 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: Matt Correll, Desmond Ritter, Carson Strong, Bailey Zappy. How many 361 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: of those do you guys really think could go in 362 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: the first round? Who do you want to go first? 363 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: I want you to go first, Matt, because last three? Yeah, rhet, 364 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: what about you? I originally thought two to three prospects, 365 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: two being Kenny Pickett and Malik Willis that we have mentioned. 366 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: With the possibility of Matt Correll from Ole Miss, I 367 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: now think there will be three to maybe four that 368 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 1: will be taken in round one. And the reason that 369 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: I do there was a trade nearly a half dozen 370 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: days ago between the Philadelphia Eagles in the New Orleans 371 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: Saints that involved a lots of first round picks in 372 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: this thing, I think New Orleans has set themselves up 373 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: to possibly take a quarterback with one of their two 374 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: first round picks they now have because they brought back 375 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston, who was the starter last year under a 376 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: one year deal, who was having a nice year towards ACL. 377 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a one year stop gap thing there. 378 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 1: And you know Blake Bortles was the backup. He has 379 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: asked for his release. I think that's a chance for 380 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: them to possibly take another quarterback in round one. So 381 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: I'm now saying at least three, possibly four. You said 382 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: a definitive three. Mac hardcore Why Oh, I mean, he's right. 383 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: But here's the deal. How many teams do we have now, 384 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: Mike eight that have two first round picks eight. That 385 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: makes a big difference. And bear in mind, this is 386 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about when I say there's a 387 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 1: quarterback draft and then there's a positional draft. I mean, 388 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: if everything was just done one through thirty two by 389 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 1: the numbers, the way these guys have farmed out, really 390 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 1: the first two that you would look at would probably 391 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: be Pickett and Willis completely different quarterbacks. But you know, 392 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: I have a chance to do so. But the other 393 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: two absolutely, and with extra picks for teams that are 394 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: quarterback needy. Absolutely, And that's why I say these things 395 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: are going to fluctuate during the draft. They're gonna fluctuate, 396 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: you know, right now as we're sitting here at this 397 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: table because the trade that he brought up. They've been 398 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: making a lot of trades early this year, I think 399 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: for several reasons. And one of the big reasons is 400 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 1: is you had such a quarterback turnover in the off 401 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: season that people are now recalibrating their quarterback situations. You 402 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: like Sam how better than Matt Correll, Well, not necessarily, 403 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: they're different. Sam How's a bigger guy. Sam How's a 404 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: bigger guy. He's sturdier physically, He's a bigger guy. He's 405 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: not as mobile, he's not immobile. But what he has 406 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: is Matt Correll played in an offense that was just 407 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: a single read offense. It's an RPO. Immediately you know 408 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: for Lane Kiffin they're at Old Miss. Didn't progression read 409 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: at all. Okay, Sam Howe playing there in North Carolina 410 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: is a progression reader, has an excellent, excellent touch on 411 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: the deep ball. Can progression read and go across. So 412 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 1: you're talking about two completely different types of players. What 413 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: type of offense do you want to run? What do 414 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: you want to feature? That'll make a difference as far 415 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: as to who you bring in. Matt Corrall is really 416 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: a slightly built guy physically, but he plays about twenty 417 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: pounds heavier than he is. I mean, he'll throw his 418 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: body in the briar patch a lot playing football. So 419 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: you've got two different types of guys. So is there 420 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: someone that's a wild card that you guys think might 421 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: just a team might fall in love with them and 422 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: potentially throw off everything that you're thinking right now? Is 423 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 1: there a wildcard quarterback in there? There's not really any 424 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: wild cards. I'll tell you the guy that probably would 425 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: have been in the mix a little earlier. If he 426 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: hadn't have been injured. Is Carson Strong at Nevada, He 427 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: probably would have been in the big Mix a little 428 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: bit earlier. Mike was at the Senior Bowl with him. 429 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,959 Speaker 1: He's still he had a leg injury. He's still not 430 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: able to set up and throw correctly off of that leg. 431 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: So his mechanics are a little bit Caddie womp Us now, 432 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: you know. But but he has a chance because he's 433 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: got enough of an arm. He's got an arm, and 434 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 1: he's got the stature that guy might have been. But 435 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: you know, if you're taking a quarterback that's injured to 436 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: start with, especially in the lower body, he'll be drafted. 437 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: But I think he might might have been in the 438 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,199 Speaker 1: conversation or he reminds me a little bit physically, And 439 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: he reminds me a little bit watching him play functionally 440 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: as Davis Mills at the Texans. But somebody that's just 441 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: going to jump up. There's not many of them this year, Amy, 442 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: there really aren't. Rat do you have a wild card? 443 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: I mean, though, I think the wild card in getting 444 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: to more than two or three quarterbacks in this I 445 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: think Matt Corrall is somebody that's gonna because of the 446 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: RPO style offense. If that's what you're running, he's your guy, 447 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: quick release, mobile quarterback twenty touchdowns to just five interceptions 448 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. But I think the next guy 449 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: in there is a guy Desmond Ritter from and I 450 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: thought you were both gonna say Desmond Ritter when she 451 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: asked you that question, that somebody might just love him. 452 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: He was already in the conversation. Well he's in the conversation, 453 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: but you haven't mentioned him as a one. Well he's 454 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: he I think he isn't the conversation as a woman. Okay, 455 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: I mean it's not I mean this is I mean, 456 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: I'm not putting out Amy says, no, I'm not putting 457 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 1: out the gospel. According to Mac, this is this is 458 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: got to work workout plan. That's good. He's going to 459 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: be in there, but people understand, you know what he is, 460 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: and he's going to have to be a guy that's 461 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 1: going to need to be developed. So he's gonna have 462 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: to go to a place his best chance and in 463 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: this league is going to be like what Patrick Mahomes 464 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: did when he went to Kansas City and set behind 465 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: an Alex Smith. He could still be taken in the 466 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: first round if you're willing to do that, which Andy 467 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: Reid was willing to do and traded up to get 468 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, even though he had a first round quarterback 469 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: as his starter. You don't buy the ritter thing. Well day, 470 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: I saw his pro day. He he's got the size, 471 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 1: he's got the stature, he's got so many of the 472 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 1: things that you want physically. His pro day I think 473 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: cost him a little bit. He did not have a 474 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: spectacular pro day, just a lot of mistakes, a lot 475 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: of balls that he didn't have a lot of control over. 476 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 1: And he even said afterwards he wasn't super thrilled with 477 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: his performance. And I think that that's going to end 478 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: up hurting him and he's going to end up dropping 479 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: a little bit in the draft because of that. Let 480 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: me talk a little bit about pro days, and let 481 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: me talk a little bit about the combine. In reference 482 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: to a player's evaluation, nobody cared, No, that's not true. 483 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: You've learned a lot in the years we've been together. 484 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: It is a supplement to their evaluation. It's not a 485 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: substitution for their evaluation. Their evaluation is the film and 486 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: how they play and how they process. But when you if, if, 487 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: do you just go make an evaluation on quarterbacks or 488 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: anybody really off of a war and off day, then 489 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: that's it's a supplement. It's not a substitute. It was 490 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: not a great day. Well, but Desmond Ritter has forty 491 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: nine starts. Uh, you're talking about a program that Luke 492 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 1: Fickle has really put on the map. You're gonna have 493 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: a handful of bearcats taking over the three days of 494 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: the draft. I mean, for having's sakes, they were in 495 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: the college playoff and uh, he while the developmental stuff, 496 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: I totally agree with that, but he's got a lot 497 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: of good college experience there for you to build off of. 498 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 1: And yeah, I mean a pro day, it's not great. 499 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: We don't do well against air and there's no defense, 500 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: but uh, there's a body of work to be looked at. 501 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: That for sure. Amy loves this book. This is what 502 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: I when I'm watching tape. This this is freehand just thoughts. 503 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: This is She loves this old history notebook that the 504 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: notebook we used to have for English. Yeah, it's a 505 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: composition book. I've got thirty six of these in my 506 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: files from all the years. I've done the draft. Here's 507 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: Desmond Ridder. You want to read it with me? Here? 508 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: You don't need to read it? Well, okay, you can 509 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 1: see can you see it? Ye? Six seven size, He 510 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: has armed talent, has mobility, athleticism. Those are excellent. Accuracy 511 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: needs work. Wait a minute, this is off a film 512 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: and you teach him accuracy. Accuracy needs are both of 513 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: y'all gonna let me read this. Accuracy needs work. Inconsistent 514 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: thrower mechanics needs work, has physical traits to be a 515 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 1: developmental starter. Arm strength and release are good. Let me 516 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: ask this first though, and I know I interrupted, But 517 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: guys that are not accurate, Guys who are not accurate 518 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: when they're playing catch, those guys scare me. But that 519 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: that makes me very nervous. So now, Josh Hallen is 520 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,119 Speaker 1: a guy who wasn't very accurate at Wyoming, and now 521 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: exactly he's plenty accurate, but he would be the exception 522 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: and not the rule. More the exception. Okay, correct, But 523 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: here's what corrects normally. Accuracy is lower body mechanics. Okay, 524 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: lower body mechanics as long as your your lower half 525 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 1: in your top half. Once they start getting SYNCD up 526 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: that that that improves accuracy tremendously, and also the type 527 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: of routes that you are asked to throw on a 528 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: consistent basis, you know, coming off of the move, coming 529 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: off of play action. But it's it's it's a mechanical 530 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: thing most of the time. Josh Allen had two problems. 531 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: He threw it too hard with every throw, every throw, 532 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 1: every throw he made was a fastball, right, and then 533 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: he was just he was freelancing throwing it. He has worked, 534 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: and you're right, he is one. But can you improve 535 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: mechanics with good coaching? Absolutely? Can your mechanics improve your accuracy? Absolutely, 536 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: because it's kind of important. You got to throw it 537 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: where they can catch it. Well, you need to throw 538 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: it to the guy that's open. Yeah, I think Mike 539 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: and I are scouts. I think we oh Amy, you 540 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: would cut everybody with the bad pro day number one. Well, 541 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: she would cut everybody anyway because she's got a temper. No. Look, 542 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: that's valid. That's why it's the Titans Aimy Coach Mac podcast, 543 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: not Coach Mack Titans Amy podcast, right, because I'm scared 544 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: to death of her that her name had to go 545 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: first contraction contraction, So Ren let me ask you if 546 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: the seven quarterbacks on the coach Mack one fifty do 547 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: all go in the first three rounds while we're on 548 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: Titans Radio on Thursday and Friday. And the second part 549 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: of that is, do you have another nighmor two at 550 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: quarterback that you think could sneak in to round three? Yeah? 551 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: I do think. I've got Kenny Pickett from Pittsburgh, Malik 552 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: Willis from Liberty, Desmond Ritter from Cincinnati, Sam Howell, North Carolina, 553 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: Matt Correll Mississippi. I've got Bailey Zappi from Kentucky, Western Kentucky, 554 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: and Carson Strong from Nevada, all making that picks in 555 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: the first three round being selected. So I do think 556 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 1: in the first two nights all of those names will 557 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: be gone. As far as a name that may sneak in, 558 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: and this I think might be late Friday night towards 559 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: the end of the third round. It's a young man 560 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: named EJ. Perry. E J. Perry is from Brown University. 561 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: He's a transfer from from Boston College. I wish I 562 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: knew what I was talking about because we both apparently 563 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: have the same answer six one and a half two eleven, 564 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: and he is an athlete. Now he's just got average 565 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: arm strength, but he's an athlete. He played basketball on 566 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: the Brown basketball team. He got a baseball scholarship. The 567 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: dude has got to a lot of skills in terms 568 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: of being an athlete. And when you start seeing his 569 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: name mentioned as much as I have this week, he's 570 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 1: been a lot of top thirty visits for the Cowboys, 571 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: for the Las Vegas Raiders. He's been to the Houston Texans. 572 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: You're not making that trip just going around to say 573 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: hello and you know, have dinner, bread, bread that they're interested. 574 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: That's a guy I think could sneak in. Coach Mac Yeah, well, 575 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: if you're making visits, you're not necessarily going to be 576 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: a first or second day guy because there's a lot 577 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: of picks after that. Okay, I agree with him. I 578 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: had him written down right here. The other one that 579 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: I think is in the mix that in talking I 580 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: know a few people in this league and talking to 581 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: him later on, is Jack Cone from Notre Dame. Is 582 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: he the Wisconsin Transfers. Yes, he's a good looking quarter 583 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: a good looking quarterback and uh, you know he played 584 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: there for Tommy Reese, was the offensive coordinator and really 585 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: really had a nice year, you know for Notre Dame 586 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: so and again fifth or sixth round. You know, that's 587 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. But those are two other names. 588 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: I think that everybody's listening here. I know everybody's taking notes. 589 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: I can tell is gonna is gonna be. He will be. 590 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: He will be drafted, and he could sneak into the 591 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: top one oh five the first three round if someone 592 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: loves him well, because he's a quarterback, and that's what 593 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: you've said, the quarterback draft. If someone loves him like 594 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: Amy loved that ice cream. If someone loves him as 595 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: much as Amy loved that ice cream. Yes, all right, 596 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: So this is the OTP Live Tour. We are doing 597 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: this program today from the Columbia Welcome Center with a 598 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: bunch of ot people, and we are thrilled that they 599 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: are here. We are, of course, presented by Farm Bureau 600 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: Health Plans. For seventy five years, Tennessee's have been relying 601 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: on Farm Bureau Health Plans for their healthcare coverage. Why well, 602 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: better rates, better coverage, and better service from Farm Bureau 603 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: Health Plans. Okay, we're getting ready to wind up this 604 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: edition of the OTP and we're going to talk about 605 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: the receivers in Coach Max one fifty tamorrow. That's going 606 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: to be on our next OTP. But before we leave 607 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: this edition, Coach Mack, why has wide receiver money exploded 608 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: the way that it has in this offseason? Because the 609 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: game has changed. The game's exploded. The games has exploded 610 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 1: horizontally on the field. And the reason for it is 611 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: this physically, as our coach defense in this league for 612 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: thirty plus years, when I first started coaching in this league, 613 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,239 Speaker 1: from like can the Bears back in eighty six, you 614 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: could do a lot to disrupt receivers, and you could 615 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,719 Speaker 1: do a lot to discourage the middle of the field routes. 616 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: A lot we did a lot of that, and you 617 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: could also do a lot to make sure the quarterback 618 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: didn't finish the game. I mean, those are just truths 619 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: of what went on faith and now you can't do 620 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: that anymore. So the game has opened up so much more. 621 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: And plus all the seven on sevens that you have 622 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: from middle school all the way through college, you've got 623 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: kids playing quarterback and receiver now you know, all year 624 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: all year long. And the other thing is the variety 625 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: of offenses that are now being run. There are so 626 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: many different body types and size of receivers you've got. 627 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: It's not a one size fits all anymore. It's a 628 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: lot of different ones. So that has expanded everything and 629 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: we're going to continue to see more. We've got a 630 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: lot of receivers on this list. Yep. Nineteen. I think 631 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: I think there will be at least twenty five or 632 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 1: twenty six drafted in this draft. WHOA, that's crazy, it's 633 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: the best year. Is this just the normal? This is 634 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: just normal? Yeah, it's a new normal froughout the last 635 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 1: three years. And it's a very good point that you make. 636 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: But that's where we are, that's where everything else is going. 637 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,240 Speaker 1: So what Mac is saying is when you first started 638 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 1: coaching eleven personnel, one running back, one tight end, three 639 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: wide receivers was mainly a third down formation. That was it. 640 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 1: Now it's the most popular formation in the national football 641 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: where everybody runs on first down. So what do you 642 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: need in that? Three wideouts every time? But you see 643 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 1: some wide receivers in this segment what we're seeing and 644 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: it started really with Christian Kirk, Who's what the number 645 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: three wide receiver in Arizona gets eighteen million dollars a 646 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: year to go to Jacksonville, and it's only gone up 647 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 1: from there to this past week, whereas to find Diggs 648 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: is getting forty eight million over the next two years guaranteed. 649 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: That's quarterback money almost it's quarterback money. It's crazy. But 650 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: you all also have to think about where the league 651 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: is kind of as a whole. I think, and I 652 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: might be wrong, but this almost seems a little bit 653 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 1: to be a byproduct of some of the cap explosion 654 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: that the league has had in the last couple of years. 655 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean, there's some really talented players who are being 656 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: let go from teams because teams can't afford to keep them, 657 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: and other teams are willing to pay them that money 658 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 1: to get them there. So there's a little bit of 659 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: that as well, where there's just a lot of talent 660 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: that is being released not because there's any problem, not 661 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,320 Speaker 1: because there's anything wrong with them or they're losing a step, 662 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: but because teams can't afford to pay them. And so 663 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: we're seeing a lot of money flying around to woo 664 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: some of these players. Well. And to Mike's point and 665 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: your point too, there are some teams that have more 666 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: cap space right now, and some of those teams that 667 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 1: have more cap space or the teams that aren't winning 668 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 1: games now. Also, we are coming off of a two 669 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 1: year truncated cap where everybody had to readjust their cap 670 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: because COVID, and the cap was lessened because you know, 671 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 1: the exposure was lessened. The cap next in twenty twenty 672 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: three and going forward is going to exponentially get a 673 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: lot bigger. And so now, if you're paying a receiver 674 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: twenty five million dollars a year on a two hundred 675 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,959 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars cap, that's ten percent of your cap. 676 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: Can you do that for one guy? Yes, if he's 677 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: your best player, because and they're they're creeping up into 678 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: quarterback money now. But you we all know quarterback money 679 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: in the next two or three years is going to 680 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: be even bigger. Oh sure, between the new deals for 681 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 1: a Tyreek kill, DeVante Adams and the like. A lot 682 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: of these people and if I know people, the ot 683 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,439 Speaker 1: people sitting here watching us, you will see this stuff 684 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 1: on social media. On these websites there are over the 685 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: cap spot track they've had to reevaluate what average money 686 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: per year on some of these are. But the thing 687 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: that everybody gets falls into real quick is well, it's 688 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,359 Speaker 1: a five year deal, it's one hundred and eighty three million. 689 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,280 Speaker 1: Don't worry about all that, there's voidable years those things. 690 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 1: I look at the guaranteed money. The guaranteed money that's 691 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: being thrown out there is incredible. If you think about 692 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: the first guy that got the best guaranteed money that 693 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: I could ever remember was when when Andrew luck got 694 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: his re up deal in Indianapolis. It was unheard of. 695 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: But that's the quarterback position. When you're starting to see 696 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: what these agents are negotiating for and what they're getting 697 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 1: in terms of guaranteed money on the front end of 698 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,240 Speaker 1: this thing, it's amazing. Well, what also is going to happen? 699 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,840 Speaker 1: And you know this too, all of us do because 700 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 1: we're in the business. These these receivers, now they're doing 701 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 1: this money, they're gonna start doing shorter deals. They're gonna 702 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: start doing shorter deals with more guaranteed money up front 703 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 1: so that they can hit hit the jackpot again in 704 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: two or three years. This is exactly why you want 705 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 1: to listen to the next edition of the OTP from 706 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: the Road because on the Coach Mac one fifty we 707 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: will go over his nineteen top wide receivers. Do you 708 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: have more players at any position than wide receivers on 709 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: the one fifty nineteen of them that's coming next for 710 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: this kind of money that's out there for the veterans, 711 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: it's why you need to hit on a younger one 712 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 1: or two to save the dough. That's a great point, Mike, 713 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: and it's it's a perfect point. And that's why there 714 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: and you ask a great question earlier on why are 715 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: there so many of them now? Because that's the way 716 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,839 Speaker 1: offenses are trending. And it still doesn't mean you don't 717 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: run the ball, but more people now, as like the 718 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: Titans have, like Sean McVeigh has at LA, they're figuring 719 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,280 Speaker 1: out how to run the football out of eleven personnel. 720 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 1: Coach Dave McGinnis, Rhet Brian Amy Wells, thank you so much. 721 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: We appreciate you being here in Columbia, Tennessee.
