Speaker 1: because any ko is all of what two and a half? Well,

31
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: if it's in the Harmon's narrator, I mean, if we're

32
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: just looking at the facts, he's closer to being a grandpa.

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: Get the rest of us in this, that's true. Who

48
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: weird because I'm a football writer and like all my

49
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 1: content goes on the down slope, right, you know. But well,

50
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: let's be real. The whole off season now included is

51
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: take season, and that's part of what you live for.

Speaker 1: I live, I do, I do live for ta um.

53
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,440

54
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: forth with rich rebar Lord Reeves on Twitter. He absolutely

55
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: uh And I had just been like, you know, like

56
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,320

Speaker 1: rookie prospects, Like I forgot how much I love the draft.

58
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: It's addicting. It's super fun to look into these guys

59
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,959
Speaker 1: the best. And then he started he started tweeting me

60
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: back and forth about these guys like Davonte Davis, who

61
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,839
Speaker 1: I loved a couple of years ago, who never even

62
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: sniffed a practice squad. And it's like, thank you for

63
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: giving me the sobering reminder. Incredibly meaning, but nevertheless, Harmon

00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: season is in full of I like it. I love it, Jim.

65
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: Six days a week. We're ready to go, baby in

66
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: the gym six days a week. Wow, look at you?

00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: This is this is this is Harmon Seasons. What's all about?

68
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: I was all happy that I was doing p n

69
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: I d X twice a week within hitting some protein shakes.

70
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 1: You're like doing it twice a week, James. Hey, listen, pal,

71
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know how pint X works. We're supposed

72
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: to do it every day. Yeah, it does seem to

73
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: be missing the point. If you want to die sure,

74
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: I didn't go for it. I did it for nine days,

75
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: all right? Good for you. Look at how good Marcus looks.

76
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: Got some definition. Every bit helps, James. Look, we got

77
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 1: to freak you in front us here today. We're gonna

78
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about playoff challenge, to talk about

79
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: the top scores from sixteen at the wide receiver position.

80
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: We will break down there and kind of look forward

81
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: to the seventeen as well. We'll close out with Daily Death,

82
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: but we actually got a big round of your top headlines,

83
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: the camera highlights in the world of sports, Breaking breaking news, break,

84
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: continue to follow, breaking news, kids, Has your wife all right?

85
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: NFL media insider I Rappaport saying the brown is still

86
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: very interested in the Patriots and Jimmy Garoppolo. What will

87
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: the price be? We heard earlier in the year that

88
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: the price could a first round draft pick and a

89
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: fourth round draft pick. Would Cleveland give up a first

90
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: and a fourth to go get Jimmy g They got

91
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: two first round draft picks this year, right, first? Uh,

92
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: first and twelve? Right? I believe I believe that's correct. Yeah,

93
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: at number twelve, yea first of all. So I guess,

94
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: I guess. My question is, do you guys think that

95
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns would give up a first and fourth

96
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: even if they gave up a first in whatever, first

97
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,239
Speaker 1: and fifth or something to go get Jimmy g Um.

98
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: Does Jimmy Garoppolo going to Cleveland help that offense at all?

99
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: I mean, do we know anything about Jimmy Garoppolo outside

100
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: of the patriotsism? Well, we don't. I mean, that's all

101
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: we that's all we've seen, and even that has been

102
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: fairly limited glimpses of him. I mean, he had what

103
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: the games he had he played last year, I believe

104
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: a little bit, but we haven't seen much of him.

105
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: But you know what, I like it. I like it

106
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: in the sense that we at least have seen that

107
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: he has some skills, he does have some requisitibility to

108
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: lead an offense to be success full. And we're talking

109
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: about pairing him up with Hugh Jackson, who we know

110
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: had can develop quarterbacks, and he saw what he has

111
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: done in the past with quarterbacks, and so you know,

112
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: I understand the trepidation in Cleveland because they, you know,

113
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: spoiler alert, they have not had a good track record

114
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: with quarterbacks in the last couple of decades. Um So, yeah,

115
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: A football jersey told me that once. Um So, I mean,

116
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: I I think there's a reason to be encouraged here.

117
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: I mean, and look, if you're gonna go out and

118
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: spend spent on a guy, you think you can develop

119
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: and turn into that guy. And I do have faith

120
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,679
Speaker 1: that Hugh Jackson can develop him. Now, didn't Cody Kessler

121
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: kind of outperform our expectations of him? This year. Doesn't

122
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: that kind of also go to your point MG, that

123
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson has done pretty darn good with quarterbacks. Yeah, absolutely,

124
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: and but I don't At the same time, I don't

125
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: think anybody here believes that Cody Kesler is the answer.

126
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: He's not the answer. So Cody Kesler showed that he

127
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: can be a really good backup in the NFL, which

128
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: is nice for them. It is definitely a luxury to have. Now.

129
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: I guess the thing with training for Jimmy Garoppolo is that,

130
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: you know, the Browns hold the number one overall picking

131
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: the draft. I don't think they'd send that pick. I

132
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: think I'll try to send twelfth overall pick. I mean

133
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: our our analysts here that do mock drafts, I think

134
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: only one of them, and Chad Reuyder had a quarterback

135
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: going number one overall, and he had Deshaun Watson. That

136
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: does like that seems to be the contrarian opinion that uh,

137
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: a quarterback would go number one overall. I don't know.

138
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: This is this is an interesting It's an interesting situation because, like,

139
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, how often does this really work out?

140
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: Like trading for the other team's back up, you know,

141
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: and I know we should take things on a case

142
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: by case basis. I mean there's the Matt Shop example,

143
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: and I think that's probably the best one. Yeah, he

144
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 1: came from Atlanta, went to Houston, worked out, but you don't.

145
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: At the same time, he was also working with one

146
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: of the best quarterback developers in NFL history, uh in

147
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: Gary Kubiack. So yeah, you're right, Uh, it doesn't work

148
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: out that and I'm super insulted. Okay for a little bit.

149
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: With the Chiefs, he had one is it one really

150
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: really good year and then fell off. Oh my god,

151
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: his first year it was bad. Now, look, let's also

152
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: not forget that there was a lot of hubbub about

153
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins netting a first round pick for Washington and

154
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: they decided not to trade him, and now he's a

155
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback for them. With the way Tom Brady is playing,

156
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: and I mean, we could always expect the cliff to

157
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: fall out at any point with but you would imagine Brady.

158
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: I mean, he looks like he's got at least two

159
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: to three more years left, which is crazy, but it

160
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 1: might just be so Yeah, you would probably want to

161
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: get what you can at a Garoppolo now, but I

162
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: mean for the Browns. It's just like, I don't know

163
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: if the deal makes sense for the brown you know what.

164
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: Quite to be honest with you, I don't know if

165
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: it makes sense for anybody. Yeah, I mean Garoppolo just

166
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: like I think the thing I think the problem with

167
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: this and I, like I said, this is something that

168
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: I'm never in favor of his, Like trading for the

169
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: backup quarterback. It's like long been a thing that's annoyed me. Uh.

170
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: The thing with that is like, and especially with the Patriots,

171
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: every time they get a backup quarterback, everybody's like they're

172
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: going to be trading for a first round pick in

173
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: a couple of years. We did it with Mallet, that

174
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,959
Speaker 1: didn't happen. Then when Garoppolo they take him, the same

175
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: thing has happened. And so then Garoppolo goes out and

176
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: has like one good game, one really great half against

177
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, and then it's hurt. We never see him

178
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: again this season? Is that just confirmation bias that we

179
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: saw one and a half good games out of him

180
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: and now we're assuming, yeah, of course he's worth the

181
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: first round pick, because that's what we thought for the

182
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,719
Speaker 1: last three years. I'm using the Royal we But my

183
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: point to that, it's just like this is a really

184
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: big unknown. If you're gonna take an unknown, why wouldn't

185
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 1: you just if you think Deshaun Watson or Shaun Kaiser

186
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 1: or any of these other guys is like has a

187
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: pretty good shot at being a solid starting quarterback, why

188
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 1: wouldn't you just take that guy at number one and

189
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: try to develop your play deal will be a lot

190
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: a lot cheaper and you get him for four to

191
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 1: slash five guaranteed years. But I think, but I think

192
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: the the the issue the count arguments of that is

193
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: that they don't consider Garoppolo to be an unknown babybe

194
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 1: They don't know the full depth of what he can be,

195
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: but they can already. You don't have to project what

196
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: he might do against NFL defense is because you've seen

197
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: what he can do against NFL D And I think

198
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: the thing that you're saying Marcus too is that his

199
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: floor is higher to you fantacy terms in real life,

200
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: is it? Though? I mean, Garoppolo had some big flags

201
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: as a prospect too, but his but Jimmy Che's floor

202
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: versus like Deshaun Watson's floor, You know what I mean,

203
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: Like the floor for Watson is completely unknown. I mean

204
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: it's zero. Yeah, but I mean the guy is either

205
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: the answer or he's not. Okay, Like that's the big thing.

206
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: Like he's either a starting NFL quarterback, a plus starting

207
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback, or he's not. And either way the move

208
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: is bad if that doesn't end up being what it is.

209
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: And I don't think we can say with any sort

210
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: of real level of confidence that we know that Garoppolo

211
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: is that guy. That's just me. All right, there you go,

212
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: will stand in the division love bell real quick? Can

213
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: I go back? You gave Patriots credit for it, but

214
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 1: the Packers started that trend under far hassleback No no, no, no,

215
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I would. I didn't mean the actual execution of it.

216
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: I mean the media's obsession with it. But by the way,

217
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: both of those trades for backup quarterbacks worked out well

218
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: as well at the hashtag trends. So why don't somebody

219
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: just tried for Brett Hunley. He's there, he's I mean,

220
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: if you if you read j S comments playing, people

221
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: thought he was the best quarterback in Green Badge this year.

222
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,599
Speaker 1: Oh boy, still baffles me. Anyways, move on, Sorry, and

223
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: we'll stay in the Division A f C North left

224
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: Bell told Good Morning Football he's still determining whether or

225
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: not he does need growing surgery. Likely to be franchised

226
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: as well. We know that love Bell will be back

227
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: there in Pittsburgh in some capacity. But the fact that

228
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: he's waiting this long, and let's say he goes under

229
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: the knife this late in the game, that's that's red

230
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: flags right going into next season. It's like, oh, it's

231
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: been a little over a week since he suffered the injury.

232
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: I don't think it's that laid into the season. He's

233
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: gotten two opinions. He's getting a third right now. I

234
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: guess it just seems like he's dragging his feet on

235
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: this thing. I think he's just more interesting it and

236
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: keeping up his streak of not playing week one. It's

237
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: just something, you know, I just I just don't want

238
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: to be there week one. There's all this pomp and circumstance.

239
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: I don't, you know, I just don't need it. I

240
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: talk about harmon season, D'Angel Williams season. I will say

241
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: I understand him from a business side though, trying to

242
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: take a more measured approach to this, because even if

243
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: he does get franchised. You know, he wants to make sure,

244
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: whether he gets surgery or not, puts him in the

245
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 1: best place to perform as well as possible next year

246
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 1: so he can net himself a fat deal. Is probably

247
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,120
Speaker 1: arguably the least top running back, So it makes sense

248
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: why he'd want to get a third opinion on growing

249
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: surgery and not just talk to one guy. He's like, yeah,

250
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: I should get going to knife. He's like, okay, cool,

251
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: that's true. Alright, Carson Palmer. This is an interesting story

252
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: from Fox Sports nine ten in Arizona. Uh, Mike direct

253
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: you reporting that Carson Palmer has pulled his kids out

254
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 1: of school? What kill his house on sale? It's created

255
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: havoc on the Twitter spear and that maybe is it

256
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 1: possible that Carson Palmer's walking away from the game, by

257
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: the way, taking your kids out in February? Like that's bold?

258
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: What that's that's an aggressive move, man. I mean, even

259
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: if you're retiring kids, just let him finish. I mean,

260
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: I don't get it. No, they just in February June.

261
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: I mean, what's really understand Like, Okay, let's say you're

262
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: gonna retire, do you need to pull your damn kids,

263
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: I think I think Carson Palmer, you know what, I

264
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: don't know, to make some joke about education there, I

265
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: can't remember. I lost it. I feel like you probably

266
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: gona take a shot at USC or something. All I

267
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: know is, seriously though, between between you know, this news,

268
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: Carson Palmer potentially retiring, Larry Fitzgerald not yet saying what

269
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: he wants to do, a lot of uncertainty, uncertainty there

270
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: you got left Bell potentially having surgery all of a sudden,

271
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott might be the RB one by default, you know,

272
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: That's what we were saying, likes safest looking outlook of

273
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: these guys. It could be. But you know, I mean,

274
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: I I know somebody tweeted me like right after this

275
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: news happened, and I said, like, let's maybe wait for

276
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: something official before I start cranking up the take machine.

277
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: Uh so, I I don't know what to I mean,

278
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: let's again, let's let something really happen. But you know this,

279
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: this was one thing about everybody wants to throw Carson

280
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: Palmer to the or some people do want to just

281
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: throw him to the street, or you know, get him

282
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: off the roster because he's old and you know, throw

283
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: some interceptions, but he played really well down the stretch

284
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: in my opinion, a really bad environment, and if he

285
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: was to leave, it would open up a lot of

286
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: questions all over the Arizona offense. And yeah, suddenly these

287
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 1: two running backs that just dominated in Fantasy last year

288
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: for on a per game basis, in terms of Levanbell

289
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: and David Johnson, they certainly already have question marks in

290
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: their outlook, which is much more of what we've seen

291
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: from top running backs in years prior. Backup quarterback situation

292
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: there in Arizona not great, ru Stanton Is somehow still

293
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: they're still hanging around there into a paycheck they have.

294
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: They have definitely played the quarterback position really risky there

295
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: since Palmer and they've had standing but they haven't. They

296
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: haven't been able to develop any young town. I mean,

297
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: they had Logan Thomas for a minute there, but l

298
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: O L Logan Thomas, I mean kind of similar to

299
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: you have talked about leve Bell, similar to Pittsburgh. They

300
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: have not done a good job. But their backup quarterback

301
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: situation there interesting. What will happen in the draft, I

302
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: would imagine. I think Arizona has to address quarterback there,

303
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: but we'll see. Uh, they may just think, well, Carson's

304
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: gonna come back and we're gonna make one big final

305
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: push for the super Bowl. But oh well, we'll find out. Hey,

306
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: lanzer Line just released his first mock draft you can

307
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: find on NFL dot Com. Of the headlines, he's got

308
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: Miles Garrett going number one to Cleveland. That doesn't surprise

309
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: many folks. I don't know if you've ever seen Myles

310
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 1: Garrett play over at texasan am, but he is a

311
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: freaking beast. He also loves tacos, so does he. Yes,

312
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: he wrote a letter you're thinking the folks in College

313
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 1: station for his time there, and he shouted out his

314
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,840
Speaker 1: favorite tacos joint. He now layer to that story. You know,

315
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: I did tweet out that this does immediately make him

316
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: a favorite, a good prospect if he's that big into tacos,

317
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: because tacos are are very very good. However, Uh Desk

318
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: head Desk editor David Eally did some investigative reporting on

319
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: that taco place. They do not serve pork tacos, which

320
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: is a pretty big red flag actually, like no no

321
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: carneias or no carnetas. There's no pork on the menu

322
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: they had the apparently they apparently had to stop. This

323
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: is a red flag exactly, the apparently had stopped. Yeah, right, well,

324
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: to be fair to him, to be fair to him,

325
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: they had to stop serving pork tacos because apparently nobody

326
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 1: was buying the pork on the menu, which actually might

327
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: say something more about our friends in Texas. There just

328
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 1: just raises a lot of questions about everything, see everything,

329
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: like initially it was a big and this is why

330
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: you always what's the yelp rating on that place? I

331
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: don't remember what it was called. We figured that place?

332
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: Have we figured really off the rails how we can

333
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: get somewhat back on whatever? Cleveland, We're trying to bring

334
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: you good news about tacos. By the way, if Myles

335
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: Garrett is gonna be looking for good tacos in Cleveland,

336
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 1: I think he will be sorely disappointed. That's just trying

337
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: to bring it there. Okay. Number two San Francisco zero

338
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: line has Mitch Robinsky from North Carolina, the quarterback from

339
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: North Carolina to Marcus Live for reaction. But I understand

340
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: that the forty Niners need a quarterback. There's no doubt

341
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: about using the number two overall pick one to get

342
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: a quarterback, to to get Mitch Drabinsky. And look, I've

343
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: watched a little bit. I definitely need to dig more

344
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: into his tape. Good athletes, he's pretty good. He's a

345
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: good athlete. He's got a big arm um. I didn't

346
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: see anything though so far that has made him worth

347
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: the number two overall pick. And I went, actually, I asked,

348
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: and I think I may mentioned this before. Talked to

349
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks, who's one of the scouts here at the

350
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 1: Network and also a North Carolina grad himself, asked about

351
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: Mitch Dubinsky, and the thing he said was, he said, look,

352
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: you know, I think he he's a good kid, and

353
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: he's a talented quarterback. But I think by the time

354
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: the draft hype season really cranks up, uh, that he

355
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: may be made out to be a guy exactly that

356
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: he's not. And the name he used, uh was Mark Sanchez,

357
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: but not not so much that, but but mostly in

358
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: the sense that like Mark Sanchez, Mitch Rubinsky has it

359
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: started a lot of games in college. I mean, his

360
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: resume is still very small, scrapared it to a lot

361
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: of the other quarterbacks in this class, and it's just

362
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: that he may take a little bit longer to develop

363
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: than some of the other guys coming out this year.

364
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: You know, I think that the other red flag for

365
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: me too, is is the fact that it was North

366
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 1: Carolina ever good football, Like they were eight and five

367
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: this year. I don't ever remember them being Okay, North

368
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: Carolina is really good this year. Yeah. I mean I

369
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: because I remember starting to hear some of the hype

370
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: uh in like December or whatever, and I made it

371
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 1: a point to kind of watch a little bit of

372
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: the Sun Bowl when they played Stanford, I believe it was,

373
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,719
Speaker 1: and um again, just there was no thing that I

374
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 1: saw in that game that suddenly clued me into why

375
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 1: Mitch Drubisky was getting all this time. Here's an interesting

376
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: wrinkle about Rabisky to uh. I think this was a

377
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: couple of days ago, Mike Mayock, our own Mike Mayok

378
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: said on NFL Network, he said it on TV that

379
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: he said that NFL scouts as expect Mitch Robinsky to

380
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: measure in just over six ft one at the NFL

381
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: Scouting cono. Really he's listening six three right right, Yeah,

382
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 1: that would be a big deal. And we we always

383
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes it's it's silly to over over estimator,

384
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 1: over emphasize these like minimum thresholds or whatever. But you know,

385
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: he would be just the third quarterback that uh and

386
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: this comes from Lukey Easterly made this point. He'd be

387
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 1: just the third quarterback joining Johnny Manzel and Rex Grossman

388
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: who are only six ft one or shorter in the

389
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: last fifteen years to get drafted in the first round.

390
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: That's and and and then right away there were reports

391
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 1: like he could see a draft day fall and like

392
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: maybe that's a little bit exaggeration, but you know, these

393
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: draft things with the quarterbacks, especially is a cycle every year.

394
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: Uh So I think we really gotta wait, you know,

395
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 1: to see where shake out with Kaiser, uh, Deshahn Watson,

396
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: who I really I really like Deshaun Watson over there something.

397
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: There's some ups and downs there and Robiski and then

398
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes even to Texas A and and MS quarterback. That

399
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,239
Speaker 1: guy can fla getting a lot of hyper You can

400
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: fling a football, man, I mean whether whether I don't know,

401
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 1: I'm not a quarterback expert or whatever, but man, that

402
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: guy throws it far and and hard. Lance zer Line

403
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: has the Bills at number ten, taking Deshaun Watson, which

404
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: is interesting, Cleveland and number twelve if he falls this far.

405
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: Lanzer Line says Leonard four Nett could be picked up

406
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: in his first mock draft. I don't get that pick,

407
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: and I've seen Dalvin Cook mock there too. A lot

408
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: of people seem to have Cleveland RB at twelve. It

409
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: doesn't make much sense to me because running back is

410
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: a position we've seen you can find depth at. This

411
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: is allegedly one of the deepest running back draft classes

412
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: in years, and Isaiah Kowell played pretty well last year. Like,

413
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: I don't understand why they wouldn't fix other issues and

414
00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: just rely on a guy that they have for far

415
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: cheaper than investing a top twelfth pick in running well.

416
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: And I think especially when you talk about the two

417
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: running backs that we mentioned here, I mean, Leonard four

418
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 1: Nett can kind of isaih l kind of feels that

419
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 1: that same role the four Nett does, Uh, Dalvin Cook

420
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: kind of is that same guy that Duke Johnson is.

421
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: So it doesn't really make a lot of sense. And

422
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I am okay with taking running

423
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 1: backs and high priority picks if it's the right situation.

424
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: When it is the utter icing on the cake, like

425
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott was in Dallas last year. That's a unique

426
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: different situation. But we've also seen when teams burn a

427
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 1: high pick on running backs and then throw them into

428
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: a bad offense. Its Todd Gurley, you know that that

429
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: can be just kind of a waste of a pick,

430
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: you know, even if the guy is super talented. So yeah,

431
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: I think that I would be kind of shocked if

432
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: Cleveland keeps that twelfth overall pick and they take a

433
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 1: running back in first round. Well, I think I think

434
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 1: the counterargument to that is if for Net is one

435
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: of those once in a generational type talents, you know,

436
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: it's even if you do get an Isaiah Crow, well,

437
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: he is not Look, he's great, he's a good play,

438
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 1: but he's not a great player, and in for Net

439
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: could legitimately be one of the all time grades because

440
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: he is an animal. But you're right, they got us

441
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 1: so many needs because they are not deep at any position,

442
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: and the one position where they do have a little

443
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: bit of depth is running back. So yeah, no, you're right.

444
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 1: I would also add, though, when's the last time one

445
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: of those all time great generational players ended up in

446
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? Not to like pull that cheesy card,

447
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: but like, look at the backs that are in the

448
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Now you got La Garrett Blunt. Uh,

449
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: that's interest James White, Dion Lewis Freeman, and Tevin Coleman.

450
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: Considering your your favorite football team, won't let Ezekiel Elliott

451
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: be great? I mean, you know what do you mean?

452
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: It's just like could have been in the Super Bowl,

453
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: but the Pack Daron Rodgers had to go to Jared Okay,

454
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: that's interesting too because you know, even Marshawn Lynch, who

455
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: was one of the great all time running backs, he

456
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: got traded over there Seattle. He was not drafted. He

457
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: was have to Buck Buffalo. So, m that's interesting, all right.

458
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: That's why I think from a team building perspective, like

459
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: Harmon said, if it's the icing on the cake, like

460
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon made sense for the Chargers, even though his

461
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: Harmon noted he got thrown into a bad situation as

462
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: a rookie, struggled bawled out this past year also in

463
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: a bad situation though, But like like you know, and

464
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: Ezeke Elliott, but I just I don't think that'd be

465
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 1: a smart pick. I can't see them making it like

466
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: and especially with that like analytics based front office that

467
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: they have and stuff. That's a good point. What part

468
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: of the numbers are going to point to this pick?

469
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 1: You know? Running back? That's interesting. I was trying to

470
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: go back because even like Jerome Bettis, who was one

471
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: of the all time grades when he won his Super Bowl,

472
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 1: he was well passed his prime. Yeah, well passers prime.

473
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: And it's just it's just a like was a team

474
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 1: building perspective. They need help across the interestensive line. They

475
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 1: need defense. I mean, they couldn't even they had one

476
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: of the four ward lowest run play percentages last year

477
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: because they were never on a game script to run

478
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: the ball. So does is getting Leonard for NET really

479
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: going to help that? I think they need help at

480
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: quarterback in other places too. All right, Tennessee at number

481
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: I don't want to jump in here, but you skip

482
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: Mike Williams at pick thirteen for the Cardinals. Did Yeah?

483
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: I didn't see that in your rundown here, which I

484
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: would have known if I had looked at it before

485
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: five minutes. Oh Mike Williams, Yeah that would be big, huge.

486
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: I totally lost that over. Mike Williams is how many

487
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: Mike Williams wide receivers can there possibly is at least

488
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:28,159
Speaker 1: the third. Yeah. Sometimes I think that there was that

489
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: Detroit Lions USC Mike Williams and then when he re

490
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 1: emerged with Seattle like twenty years later, and sometimes think

491
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: those are two different that's the same person. There's the

492
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers Mike Williams who had that great year

493
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: and then evaporated. But anyways, this Mike Williams, He's a

494
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: player I've looked at and I think he's really good.

495
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, he's incredible and contested situations, that

496
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: is really his biggest strength. He's big. This is a

497
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 1: downfield passing offense. I mean, that would be a really

498
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: he'd be what they what people actually wanted Mike Floyd

499
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: to be. He'd actually be that player. For the record,

500
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: for Pro Football Reference, there were also two Mike Williams

501
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: tight ends. There was another Mike Williams that played for

502
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: the Lions and Dolphins. From wide receivers. Four Mike Williams.

503
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 1: What did that man really a worthless career to he

504
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: amassed two career yards? There you go, Well, I mean

505
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: Mike and Williams are two super common names. You're just

506
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,400
Speaker 1: going to bang the two together something so wish. I mean,

507
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: I just feel like if this is where the projection is,

508
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: that that would signal people are expecting Larry Fitzgerald to

509
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: not be there. Well, I don't I don't necessarily agree

510
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: with that. Well, I mean maybe not even next year,

511
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: but at some point they do have to prepare for

512
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 1: him to not be there anymore. There was whether it's

513
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: you know, coming this year or the year after whatever,

514
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be there. You know. Obviously they moved

515
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: on from Michael Floyd, and I think that's where I

516
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: think that's where this Mike Williams would fit in. Yeah,

517
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: I think even if even if Larry guarantees he's coming

518
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 1: act this year, I think they still look at receiver,

519
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: maybe not to pick their team, but they have to

520
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,880
Speaker 1: look at adding bodies because I don't think you really

521
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: want J. J. Nelson to be your number two receiver.

522
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: I love John Brown, but we don't know where his

523
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: gotta worry about his health, right, I mean, he couldn't

524
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: play a full compliment of snaps because of his sickle

525
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: cell thing. And who knows, maybe they managed that better

526
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: coming after this year because He's still a super good player,

527
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 1: but you know, it just might never be the same

528
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: career trajectory for him. So I think it's uh, I

529
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: think it's a pick they look at regardless of fits.

530
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: I think they mix in John Brown J. J. Nelson

531
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: into that, you know, uh, deep threat, you know, take

532
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: the top off type guy. But man, Mike Williams is

533
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: just yeah, he he fits in with this game quite

534
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: a bit. And and you know arius a shell that

535
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: he wants to throw out that three wider superset quite

536
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: a bit. And if you've got Larry Fits, Mike Williams

537
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: in some combination of J. J. Nelson and John Brown,

538
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: that's that looks good. That's going on baber I'd day,

539
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 1: although it would not look that great if it was

540
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 1: Drew Stanton Nope under center. But suddenly that would not

541
00:26:55,320 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: look that great. Just like Wildcat, let's go uh lanzerline

542
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: has Tennessee at number eighteen, taking oh J. Howard the

543
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: Tennessee or the tight end out of Alabama. I gotta

544
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 1: hit under Lanny Walker Lance, I don't. Can't you add

545
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: another guy to the mix? Is Delaney? Is he is

546
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: he a for control? He just signed an extension there

547
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,600
Speaker 1: for two more years. But it's thirty two, though, he's

548
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: thirty two, and why why not get some youth in there?

549
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: Why not get it? Why not get a little Gates

550
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry actually going on? You know, you got you

551
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 1: got the wily old vet who's turned around his career

552
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: after he left your beloved team, and you add the

553
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: dynamic threat. He's not somehow a choir hands between San Francisco.

554
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how that. I have a feeling that

555
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: Howard ends up going higher than this though, because why not?

556
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 1: Because he had a great Senior Bowl. By all accounts,

557
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 1: he was pretty much like the best offensive player there,

558
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 1: no question, maybe even the best player there. He's super

559
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: clean from an off field perspective, He's gonna rip the

560
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: combine up most likely, and that should only reaffirm his

561
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: high stock. Yeah, but he plays tight end. Yeah, well,

562
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 1: there's so few and look at look at what we

563
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,800
Speaker 1: we complain on this podcast all the time about fantasy

564
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: tight ends being so unreliable because there's just not a

565
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: lot of clarity of the position, and this is really

566
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 1: the first class and that we could actually say that

567
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: about normally. It's like, all right, there's a lot of

568
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: good running so Beco's wide receivers, you know this and

569
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 1: this a bunch of whatever tight ends this. This could

570
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: be an opportunity for teams that are always chasing that

571
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: position to finally find a real solution. Interesting alright. At

572
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: number twenty seven, lancerline has Kansas City taking Dalvin Cook,

573
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: the explosive running back out of f SU. That would

574
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: be interesting, uh, considering that what they already have there

575
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: at running back Spencer wearing all the boys, um Jamal

576
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: Charles there, who knows what's up with that Spencer were Spencer?

577
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: This This is another pick that kind of surprised me

578
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: to see Cook last this far. I think he's going

579
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: high in a lot of other drafts. He does have

580
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 1: injury issues. I think there's an off field incident in

581
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 1: there too somewhere with with Cook. Sounds like that that

582
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: is true. Uh, But to me, if he was a

583
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: clean prospect from those sort of uh, those sort of angles,

584
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: you know they've got the Raiders sitting there and pick

585
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: twenty four, I think they'd take him in a heartbeat.

586
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: I think they've got other team, you know, the Broncos

587
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: that pick twenty even even some of these other teams

588
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: like Ahead of the Ravens at sixteen. I don't think

589
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: he would fall pairs, right, But they're they're they're not going, Yeah,

590
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: they're not. They're not going to Eagles at fourteen. I mean,

591
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,239
Speaker 1: Cook is a really impressive running back. I mean, there

592
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: are a lot of people that think that he's better

593
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: than Leonard Fournette. So I think that there's it's a

594
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: hard press for me to see him falling. He's the

595
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: only thing with Dalvin Cook, and I like d Alvin

596
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: Cook a lot. Um. There's no question he's super talented guy.

597
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: He is in the NFL, in my opinion, gonna be

598
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: a system guy. You think, yeah, because for example, I don't.

599
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 1: I don't see him fitting You're gonna have to get

600
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: a pass heavy system with Dalvin Cook and or a

601
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: system that you have an offensive coordinator that can get creative.

602
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: But in typical like you know, I don't see him

603
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: fitting that well. And like let's say like Pittsburgh, I

604
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: don't see him fitting that well. Um in Seattle, I

605
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: don't see him fitting that well. In Cleveland. There's just

606
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: he to me, he's more of a system type running

607
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: back and and and that's not a knock on down

608
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: Cook because quite frankly, a lot of the great running

609
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: backs in the NFL are system guys. Alright, so then

610
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: how about this scenario The Niners say trade down, Kyle

611
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: Shanahan grabs him, Oh hello, treat and has a a

612
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide Dalvin Cook set up sort of like Devonte Freeman.

613
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: I like where you're going on that. I like where

614
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: you're going with that A lot that like the same

615
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: thing we're just talking about from the Browns, Like they

616
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: need so many things. Why are they going to take

617
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: a running back when one of their only If you

618
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: trade down, that means you can potentially acquire some extra

619
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,680
Speaker 1: picks to help fill out some of those. And and

620
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan's an offensive coordinator, He's gonna want to fix

621
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: your offense, right, I mean that's like he's gonna want

622
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 1: to fix that offense for all right, We'll move on.

623
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh at number thirties at Lanser Airline has Corey Davis,

624
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: the wide receiver out of Western Michigan. This guy is

625
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: so interesting to six three to fifteen. He's got a

626
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: forty time estimated to be in the high four four,

627
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: so like four or four for four nine or something.

628
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: Like that we'll see at the NFL Combine. Well, we

629
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: might not see at the NFL Combine because NFL media

630
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: insider Ian Rappaport hit Me reported that he has a

631
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: he suffered an ankle injury while training, and he might

632
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: not make the combine interesting. Alright, But anyways, regardless of

633
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: the limited amount of tape that I've seen on Corey Davis,

634
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 1: he is a good player. Yeah, he's he's a good play.

635
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: He's hard to find a phone. And if Fitzburg gets

636
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: this guy at thirty, that would be sick, especially because

637
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: you know they're gonna trade Antonio Brown and everything, right

638
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: Jesus uh negative, But they would have a guy who

639
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: has a big body, uh speed on the outside and

640
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: and he would not allow teams to take that safety

641
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: over the top and cover Antonio Brown at least at

642
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: least in my opinion. But uh that it picked there

643
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: at number thirty for Pittsburgh would be very very interesting.

644
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: All right. This is a good segue into the Reese's

645
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: Senior Bowl that was on Saturday on NFL Network. Our

646
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: guy MG Marcus Grant watch that wrote a great piece

647
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: you could find at NFL dot com slash Grant Grant.

648
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 1: I was like, it's also it's also pinned to the

649
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: top of my Twitter feed, so give us a report. MG.

650
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and I my mind you most of this

651
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: was based on what we saw during the week of practice,

652
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: because the thing about the Senior Bowls everybody shows up

653
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: for practice and then most of the scouts leave and

654
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 1: don't actually stay for the game. Um, I will say,

655
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: if you are talking about the game, maybe the one

656
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: guy who really stood out more than anybody else was

657
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: Za Jones from East Carolina. Had a number of great catches.

658
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: His stat line, which actually was pretty good, still doesn't

659
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: reflect everything he did in that game because he had

660
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: a couple of really great catches. One when a quarterback

661
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: led him too much and he was at a bounds,

662
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 1: would have been a touchdown. The other one looked like

663
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: it was gonna be a touchdown, but a penalty called

664
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: it back, so that didn't happen. But he had a

665
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: very very good game. But practice wise, uh, first off,

666
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: I think that the guy who did more to help

667
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: himself than anyone was when we mentioned that was O. J. Howard.

668
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: I mean, he was voted as the best player during

669
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: the week at practices. There he was the guy coming

670
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 1: in that a lot of people thought was the number

671
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,239
Speaker 1: one tight end in this draft, and certainly nothing he

672
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: did during the week really changed anybody's mind. And in

673
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: that respect, so I mean, he's a guy that is

674
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,959
Speaker 1: going to be very very covident, especially if he has

675
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: a very good combine. He could very much make himself

676
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: a whole lot of money. Talk to me about Matthew Days.

677
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: Matthew Days would be running back from NC State. A

678
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: guy who had a very good week of practice doesn't

679
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 1: necessarily pop on film a whole lot. I mean, he's

680
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: a guy who could. He did a little bit of

681
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: everything for for the wolf Pack there, ran the ball,

682
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: was actually their fourth leading receiver as well, so really

683
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: was kind of a jack of all trades. Part of

684
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: his problem is that he played in the same conference

685
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 1: with Dalvin Cook and James Conner at pitt who got

686
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: a lot more headlines than he did. And he's a

687
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: guy who, I mean you talk about kind of a

688
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: system running back. I mean, I think he's he doesn't

689
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: necessarily project as a three down back in the league,

690
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: but could kind of be that guy who fills a

691
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 1: nice role for some team anywhere. I think from my

692
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective. You know, unless again, unless he has a

693
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 1: huge combine. Um, he's a guy that maybe you look

694
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: at late Laton dynasty drafts. I don't know the he's

695
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: a right now a redraft swort of guy, but he

696
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: just he has that overall skill set that means some

697
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: team is going to take a chance on him and

698
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: give him a chance to be competitive. How about this dude,

699
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup that we talked about last week. Cooper Cup,

700
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 1: I mean, behind O. J. Howard, Cooper Cup was probably

701
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: the second most mentioned name during the week. I mean

702
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: the vines coming out for I mean, I mean, if you,

703
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 1: if you were at all tuned into draft Twitter real quick,

704
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: can we just parse them out for vine? Okay, I

705
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: don't think they were actually vines anymore native native Twitter

706
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: videos in the Native Twitter videospick the TVs um, but

707
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I mean, if you, if you were at

708
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: all tuned into draft Twitter or scouting Twitter, uh, there

709
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: was a point last week where you couldn't avoid the

710
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: name Cooper Cup. And I mean he's a guy who

711
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 1: just certainly wins with his routes. He's got good quickness,

712
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 1: he can get open pretty much in any situation. Um.

713
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: And one of these I said to these guys is

714
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: that I'll just say it the way I said it, like,

715
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: I know it sounds bad, But he has deceptive speed,

716
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: um because because he really is not going to run

717
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: a fast He's not gonna sell you running fast. But

718
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: you know, again, like you watch him and he looks

719
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: like he's laboring when he runs, but at the same time,

720
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 1: isn't that funny He looks so awkward when he looks

721
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: like it's hard and he's struggling, But when he has

722
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,839
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands, he starts running away from guys. UM.

723
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: So that's certainly something that to keep an eye on.

724
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:29,800
Speaker 1: And I think we know one of the things hearing

725
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: people kind of talk about it after the fact is

726
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: that he doesn't necessarily have to run fast at the combine.

727
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,400
Speaker 1: He just has to not be slow. And I think

728
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: that's going to impact a lot of what happened. I

729
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: have no clue what his forty times gonna be, although

730
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: I think they're estimated to be in the high four fives,

731
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,439
Speaker 1: which is which would be totally fine. Honestly, that's totally fine.

732
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: I mean everything else he does very well. Like I said,

733
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: he wins in his routes, has great hands, um, I

734
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: mean they just people really struggle to cover him all

735
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 1: week long. So he's gonna be another guy that I

736
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 1: think is gonna rele open some eyes. Definitely a dynasty pick,

737
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: and I think, you know, if you were looking for

738
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: a late round flyer, perhaps depending on the situation he

739
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: lands and he could have some appeal for you. His

740
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: routes are sick. The routes that he runs, it's it's sudden,

741
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,240
Speaker 1: it's quick, and he was winning against He was winning

742
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 1: against some of the guys who are the top dB

743
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: prospects in this draft too. I mean he was going

744
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 1: out and having really really good routes and having good

745
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: days of practice. There's a couple of other sleeper running

746
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: backs from the Senior Bolt to Cream Hunt out of

747
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: it's two lane, right, I think it's either Toledo or

748
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: to Lane whatever. Anyways, the point is he's like a

749
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: pass catching back, a specialist that can really win the

750
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 1: ball in the air, and he might fit at a

751
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 1: place like Niapolis or something like that. By the way,

752
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: Toledo Toledo to Lane. You know a lot of a

753
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 1: lot of who's completely in different locations, but whatever, whatever

754
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: are they though, common listener, tell me where Toledo is

755
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 1: and tell me where too Lane is. How many people

756
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: are gonna know? Okay, I'm saying that comedy is a

757
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: proud graduate. It's also isn't be the last one on

758
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: their common First of all, I have no I'm not

759
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: a hundred percent sure, but is Toledo in Toledo, Ohio? Correct?

760
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: And I was going to say in New Orleans correct?

761
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: He need to pronounce it knowledge. Yeah, But anyways, Uh,

762
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt. He had a pretty good week of practice.

763
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: He like racked up over a hundred yards in the game,

764
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: I think on only fifteen carries or something like that.

765
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: And then Jamal Williams at a b y U as

766
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 1: a guy I was reading DJ's right up on him

767
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: after his bowl game, his final one of there at

768
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: b y U. He said he compared him to Matt

769
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,479
Speaker 1: Forte game a third round grade. Uh. He he looked

770
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,399
Speaker 1: good to me when I was watching a little bit

771
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: of him, and uh, I hadn't seen much of him,

772
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 1: but I had heard good things and Franchise reported from

773
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: the Wilderness he had watched him and he seemed depressed. Okay,

774
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,399
Speaker 1: I like it let's talk playoff challenge for a little

775
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: bit here, Alex Skellhar, give me a guy who could

776
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: go crazy and super Bowl lea Well, I actually think

777
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 1: this would be a good time to help our pal here.

778
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: Matt Harmonick his his next gen stats work, a lot

779
00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: of good stuff with that, and he had a piece

780
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: earlier this he called what exactly the heroes who can

781
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: probably the surprising hero of Super Bowl, which we can

782
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,720
Speaker 1: spend that for a little fantasy because there were several

783
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 1: offensive players in their harm and so give us a

784
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 1: quick rundown of those dudes. I guess this money Gramps

785
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 1: mixed it while he missed it while he was counting

786
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: his money away. Yeah, I've been doing a lot of

787
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: next gen stats work and this one. Yeah, obviously talking

788
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 1: about like guys that could be that. You know, we

789
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 1: always focused on the quarterbacks. It's like who's going to

790
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: be the big Super Bowl m VP? But there's always

791
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: a guy like Dexter Jackson with the Bucks back years ago,

792
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 1: David Tyree, those guys that pop up from the plays, right,

793
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: and so speaking of Malcolm, one guy that I think

794
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 1: could be that players Malcolm Mitchell. This week, Uh, he's

795
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 1: gonna run. I think a lot of his routes against

796
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Collins, who's been playing pretty strictly right corner in

797
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: the postseason. Uh. Collins is talented, but he gives up

798
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,960
Speaker 1: big plays, and I think that, you know, the Falcons

799
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 1: are going to do a lot to limit probably the

800
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: deep ball, and of course obviously focus on Julian Edelman.

801
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 1: That could leave Mitchell with some favorable matchups. And he

802
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 1: really got back on the field, played over six of

803
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,879
Speaker 1: the team's plays last week on his first healthy game

804
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: in a while. So he's somebody that I would I

805
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 1: would look out for. Of course everybody knows I'm a

806
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 1: big Malcolm Mitchell fan, but he could certainly fit the

807
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 1: bill as that surprising super Bowl hero. The running backs

808
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: are one that I think could be. Uh. That is

809
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: the New England pair of of James White and Dion Lewis.

810
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: The Falcons have really struggled to give or to defend

811
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 1: running backs out of the backfield. They've been targeted the

812
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: third most this regular season, had eighty five catches against him,

813
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: that's the second highest, and they've given up I believe

814
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 1: the most touchdowns to running backs out of the backfield.

815
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 1: So that's those two could easily come into play. Uh.

816
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: You know, Louis is the bigger name, but White has

817
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: been really impressive to this year. So I wouldn't be

818
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: shocked if those guys, Um, if those guys make some

819
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: big plays. And you think about it too, like Atlanta

820
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 1: has Dion Jones Devondre Campbell, these two rookie linebackers who

821
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: are really fast and good in coverage. But you'd think

822
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: that Bill Belichick would target rookies right there in the

823
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: middle of the field as somebody that we that he

824
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 1: would want to go after. That kind of spins me

825
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 1: into Atlanta's defense, and I think a lot of people

826
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 1: playoff challenge dfs. If you're sick enough to be playing

827
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 1: it in the Super Bowl, they're gonna they're gonna use

828
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 1: that Patriots defense because it's a number one scoring defense

829
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,280
Speaker 1: or whatever. But I would really look at Atlanta's attack because,

830
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 1: for one, Atlanta's offense is really good. I don't know

831
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,960
Speaker 1: how much the Patriots can really shut them down. And

832
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: I think Atlanta has a chance for some turnovers. Big

833
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: reason would be Keyan O'Neil uh, the rookie safety there

834
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 1: who has five forced fumbles this year's seventy two sold

835
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,399
Speaker 1: solo tackles. Yeah, and so this is the next time

836
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: stats angle for Keian O'Neil. He ranks fourth among all

837
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: safeties this year with four point eight three second time

838
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: to tackle. Uh, that's really impressive. The NFL average is

839
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 1: five point two seconds. And then he's uh he's third

840
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 1: among all safeties with an average of seventeen yards of

841
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: raw distance travel to tackle seventeenth lowest or third lowest.

842
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: That is. So that really speaks to how quickly he

843
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: closes forces those big hits, you know, with all the

844
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: action probably been in front of him. With the Patriots

845
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 1: toward passing game, I think Keian O'Neill could make a

846
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: big game changing player. We're gonna find out in the

847
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,320
Speaker 1: first two or three series whether or not Atlanta's pass

848
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: rush can get to Tom Brady. Uh. If they do,

849
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: this will be a much more interesting Super Bowl game

850
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,600
Speaker 1: than then. I think a lot of folks are anticipating. Uh.

851
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: You talk about you know, one of the best defenses

852
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL in the Patriots, taken on one of

853
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: the best offenses in the NFL. Uh, in the Atlanta Falcons.

854
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 1: If the Patriots have struggled anywhere in Super Bowl history. Right,

855
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 1: it's not against good offenses. It's been against good defenses,

856
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,839
Speaker 1: um in Atlanta. If they're gonna win this game, they're

857
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 1: gonna have to attack from the edges as they did

858
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 1: against the Packers, but very quickly. Oh, by the way,

859

873
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,960
Speaker 1: Bowl because what the hell? Why why not Alex Kalhard

874
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: give me a prediction ut thirty Falcons. I had to

875
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 1: do it. We had to do it for our like

876
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: right up things. Uh, And I had to have a

877
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: bold prediction. I said, four Falcons will score a touchdown,

878
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: not Julio Jones, but he will still have a big game. Interesting, MG,

879
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 1: I had the Falcons thirty seven. And my bold prediction

880
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 1: is that Tevin Coleman would set a Super Bowl record

881
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 1: for receiving yards by a running back. What is the

882
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 1: super Bowl record? Actually don't know, so it could be

883
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: like no, I know that the the all time receiving

884
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 1: record for a Super Bowl is Jerry Rice with two fifteen,

885
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: so so it can't be more than that, right, Alright,

886
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 1: So the top four player is in that list were

887
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: all wide receivers. All right, I'll give you a prediction.

888
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,720
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be Patriots all the way. Again,

889
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: the speed off the edge does is an interesting component

890
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: for Atlanta's defensive line. But I just think that the

891
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: Patriots will be good enough and they'll have schemed enough

892
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 1: to protect Tom Brady. And if that's the case, man,

893
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be a long afternoon. That's

894
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 1: why I said. That's why I said thirty because I

895
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,399
Speaker 1: I would honestly expect the Patriots to put up points too,

896
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,840
Speaker 1: But like Harmon said, I think they're gonna also have

897
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 1: a hard time slowing down that Atlanta attack that has

898
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 1: ripped up a very good defenses and route to the

899
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. And the Patriots have like the number one

900
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,919
Speaker 1: ranked scoring defense or whatever. But they've played some trash teams.

901
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: The quarterbacks they faced in the last like ten games

902
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 1: before the Super Bowl, Like I mean, like Colin Kaepernick,

903
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 1: I think I did they play him? I forget? It

904
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 1: was not good Matt more Matt more like at some point, yeah,

905
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: like it was who's not even a real quarterback? Hey?

906
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 1: Hey hey sorry whoa hey hey easy easy? Yeah, they

907
00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 1: played Cleveland somewhere and then as well. No, you're right,

908
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 1: they haven't played a very good quarterbacks uh en route

909
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. But again, I just I just

910
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: believe in Bill Belichick schaming wise, and I think I

911
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 1: don't know, man, if he takes away a couple of

912
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: weapons for uh, for for Matt Ryan, I think Atlanta

913
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: is in for a long afternoon. But I will go

914
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 1: with thirty five ut Patriots that Harmon, I think the

915
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: Falcons win. I don't really know about score predictions, but

916
00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 1: you think Okay, that's interesting. I cannot believe I'm the

917
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: only guy in here that because her super Bowl dot Com.

918
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: Sorry to jump you off, Roger Craig, I believe holds

919
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl record for receiving yards by running back

920
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: with a hundred and one. Okay, alright, that's totally doable.

921
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: That's easy. I will say, if you are you know

922
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: somebody that wants to get some jelly beans, and you

923
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 1: wanted to look into a place that likes to put

924
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: limits on what players might do, those those places that

925
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 1: give out those jelly beans always underrate the receiving running backs.

926
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: If you can decode what I'm saying there, Okay, go

927
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: make it happen. Okay, I like it. Jesus, all right,

928
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: let's talk about to already minutes talk about talking about

929
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 1: top wide receiver. I don't know how the hell we're

930
00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: gonna get through this in fifteen minutes, top sor You're welcome, America. Damn,

931
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 1: you're welcome. For sixteen this week we focus on the

932
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:32,360
Speaker 1: wide receiver position. Your wide receiver one in standard leagues

933
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: was Mike Evans ninety six receptions, a hundred seventy three targets.

934
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:41,240
Speaker 1: One In terms of yardage and twelve total touchdowns. Uh,

935
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: Mike Evans was was was pretty good? Was this about

936
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: as anticipated for for Mike Evans twelve? But that sounds bad?

937
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 1: I think that's about right. Every we expected him his

938
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 1: touchdown totals to bounce back because everybody was handwringing so

939
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: much over the last year, and it's it was just

940
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 1: one of those fluke things. Does he hold it for?

941
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: I think I think we kind of know his range

942
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 1: of outcomes, I think and ten ten plus, so I

943
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: think he's kind of going to fall into that a

944
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 1: g green sweet spot of where like his floor is

945
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: like eleven hundred and nine probably, so he's he's he's

946
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: a wide receiver one. He's probably a top two round

947
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: pick for sure next year. Jordy Nelson, your wide receiver

948
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 1: tow on the year in standard receptions A hundred and

949
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 1: fifty two targets, twelve fifty seven yardage and fourteen total touchdowns.

950
00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:30,520
Speaker 1: I do believe that led the NFL And if I'm

951
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:36,040
Speaker 1: not mistaken, um mgmight got Marcus Grant. Jordy Nelson obviously, well,

952
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,839
Speaker 1: I don't want to say obviously, but was this what

953
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 1: you expected in terms of a bounce back. What a

954
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,840
Speaker 1: weird road it took for him to get to twelve

955
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: seven four teen. Yeah, I mean I think that's that's

956
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,479
Speaker 1: the biggest thing for me, because, yeah, I guess maybe

957
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: it took him some time to kind of get you know,

958
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: officially get back up to speed a little bit, because

959
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 1: you know, you didn't start the season super hot. Obviously,

960
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: when the Packers is a whole got hot, Jordy had

961
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 1: a lot to do with that, and he Aaron Rodgers,

962
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,719
Speaker 1: we're back on point again. Um, you know, I don't

963
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 1: know that it's a surprise that he's in this top ten,

964
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,759
Speaker 1: but I think you know, overall number two fourteen touchdowns,

965
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, a little bit of a surprise there. In

966
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 1: terms of harmony receptions on targets. Can you do that again?

967
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: I think it depends on what other moves they make.

968
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: I would expect them to add another body at receiver

969
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 1: depending on what happens with Randall cop And I think

970
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: I think Randall Cops stays in Green Bay. But it's

971
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: also hard to say. I mean, his playoff run I

972
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: think might have cemented that maybe he takes a home

973
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 1: down discount to stay because he's getting paid an awful

974
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 1: lot of money to be not one of their top

975
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: two receivers at this point anymore. So, I don't know.

976
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 1: Ninety seven receptions seems like it's a tough task, but

977
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: it just depends on how much he sustains as his

978
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 1: own individual performance, which right now I don't really have

979
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 1: a good answer from. But from a metrics perspective, from

980
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: the next gen stats perspective, like I've been looking at,

981
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: he still got it. I mean, he could still play,

982
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: all right, Antonio Brown, You're just real quick. Sorry, I

983
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 1: don't I don't foresee them doing making any moves with

984
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 1: Randall cop this year either, because they still I have

985
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: Adams for one more year on his rookie contract, and

986
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: like you said, I don't think it was all just

987
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: cobbs play suffering after he got the contract. He's been

988
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: banged with injuries the last two years heavily, which have

989
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 1: been the first two years of his big paying contract.

990
00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: But isn't that a bigger concern if anything? I mean,

991
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: the fact that a smallish wide receiver who's asked to

992
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,800
Speaker 1: go in the middle is gonna be, you know, slightly

993
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,440
Speaker 1: injury prone, could be he hadn't he hadn't had a

994
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: ton you know he had did the one injury play

995
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: season in his like rookie contract too, but I don't know.

996
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 1: It's one of those weird things, like you know, the

997
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 1: your injury prone til you're not. He's had a strong,

998
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 1: healthy track record with a ton of work. So we'll

999
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: see Antonio Brown, your wide receiver three in standard scoring

1000
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 1: leagues this year. A hundred and six receptions led the

1001
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 1: NFL A hundred and fifty Am I right and saying

1002
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: that I believe I am hundred fifty four targets, So

1003
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: one oh six hundred and six catches on a hundred

1004
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 1: fifty four targets that's amazing. Twelve eighty four through the year, uh,

1005
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 1: and twelve touchdowns as well. Matt Harmon your takeaway on

1006
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:59,799
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown in the NFL behind Larry fitzgered, see I

1007
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: know'd seven uh Antonio Brown. Yeah, I mean this was

1008
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,720
Speaker 1: kind of an interesting year for I hate saying interesting.

1009
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 1: That's a stupid cop out. Uh, analyst word. I'm sorry.

1010
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,800
Speaker 1: This was This was a bit different than what you

1011
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 1: would expect from Antonio Brown because like he had the catches,

1012
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,879
Speaker 1: he had the touchdowns. Yardage was a little bit lower

1013
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 1: than you'd expect that was kind of a league wide

1014
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: trend for wide receivers this year. T Y Hilton led

1015
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 1: the NFL with eight, which was way off the trajectory

1016
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,319
Speaker 1: that's normally been occurring for wide receivers has been going up.

1017
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: But we talked about that a couple of episodes ago.

1018
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 1: I think Brown's gonna be great again next year. I mean,

1019
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,320
Speaker 1: that's that's the bottom line. Yeah, yeah, I mean I

1020
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 1: would take you know, I mean I prefer to take

1021
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: wide receivers early, and I might still take Brown. This

1022
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: is like, Brown's like off year, but he's at that

1023
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 1: level of supremely talented player and fantasy player where you know,

1024
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,879
Speaker 1: like last year, everybody's freaking out about Aaron Rodgers down

1025
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: year and it's still like seven, Yeah, keep me seven.

1026
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,839
Speaker 1: Like this, this is a bad year for Brown yards

1027
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 1: and twelve touchdowns. Okay, I think the only I think

1028
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 1: the only concern is not so much about Antonio Brown,

1029
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: but Big Ben his health. He's getting a little older.

1030
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: He takes a lot of hits. If he misses a

1031
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 1: lot of games next year, Antonio Brown's value dips. But whatever,

1032
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: that's for another conversation. Odell Beckham Jr. Your wide receiver

1033
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: four in the year, a hundred and one receptions, a

1034
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 1: hundred sixty nine targets, thirteen sixty seven receiving and ten

1035
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,320
Speaker 1: total touchdown and one off season boat trip and or

1036
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 1: post post season damnit Marcus smart one crying Jordan's uh

1037
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 1: in terms of a whole punch, which was a really

1038
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:45,399
Speaker 1: good one, that's a super good one. Yeah. Uh, He's

1039
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 1: gonna be fine. He's He's Odell. He'll be good next year.

1040
00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 1: He was great this year in a bad Eli year.

1041
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,320
Speaker 1: Even if he lies bad next year, Odell should be

1042
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: able to. That's a question though, Like I mean, if

1043
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,279
Speaker 1: Beckham is well, I mean if if Manning at quote

1044
00:50:58,280 --> 00:50:59,880
Speaker 1: his own GM is on the back nine of his

1045
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 1: own career, if he does take another step back, that

1046
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,480
Speaker 1: would be a little bit of a concern. If you

1047
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 1: were taking Beckham interestingly the top five, I would say again,

1048
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: so I mean you have to wonder two, I mean

1049
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: how much And it won't be significant. But Sterling Shepard

1050
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:17,439
Speaker 1: will be another year into his career after a pretty

1051
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 1: good year this year, Victor Cruz another year healthier whatever,

1052
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 1: um you know, look, God play good at times, Victor Cruz,

1053
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,480
Speaker 1: and he worked really hard to get back. You know

1054
00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 1: I respect that, but come on, alright, but I mean

1055
00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: Beckham saying Beckham saw a hundred and sixty nine targets

1056
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 1: this year, I would be pretty shocked if he saw

1057
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:38,879
Speaker 1: a lesson that. I mean, Shepherd saw a hundred and five.

1058
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: So I don't know how much more of a jump

1059
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 1: you could see him taking from a usage perspective. All right,

1060
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: t Y Hilton, your wide receiver number five ninety one,

1061
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: catches a targets receiving and six touchdowns for t Y Hilton,

1062
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 1: Alex galhar is this about what you expected? Or I

1063
00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean the yardage wise, I feel like

1064
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,800
Speaker 1: that's about right. Six touchdowns seems a bit low. No,

1065
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: he hasn't been a massive touchdown score throughout his career.

1066
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,719
Speaker 1: He's usually in that like six to eight range. I think,

1067
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 1: so yards might have been a little high. I think

1068
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 1: I think t Y this year performed well and it

1069
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 1: was kind of an off year, but he's kind of

1070
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 1: a back end wide receiver one I think moving forward

1071
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: with Andrew Luck there, Julio Jones, right outside your top

1072
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: five eighty three catches a hundred twenty nine targets, which

1073
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,319
Speaker 1: is pretty darn low for Julio Jones. It's a couple

1074
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 1: of games fourteen o nine receiving in six touchdowns. Matt Harmon,

1075
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,280
Speaker 1: Your takeaway from Julio Jones is, well, this was really

1076
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 1: I mean, he his season long numbers were really dominant.

1077
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 1: Of course, we know he had multiple games of under

1078
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:44,800
Speaker 1: forty yards receiving, and that kind of speaks to something

1079
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: we talked about all season with Julio is that the

1080
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:51,839
Speaker 1: Falcons offense was better overall, not solely relying on him.

1081
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 1: We're in tifteen. He saw twelve point seven targets per game.

1082
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: This year, it was down to about nine point two,

1083
00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: which is a pretty significant drop off. So I think

1084
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 1: we heard there were games where he didn't see very

1085
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 1: many targets at all. That's what I'm saying. Like they were,

1086
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,280
Speaker 1: you know, because they could beat you with Tevin Coleman

1087
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,720
Speaker 1: and DeVonta Freeman rushing and receiving out of the backfield.

1088
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:12,839
Speaker 1: They found Taylor Gabriel off the wire reliable, was reliable. Yeah,

1089
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the whole Falcons offense will be

1090
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:20,399
Speaker 1: super interesting because they can said interesting again. Jesus, Uh,

1091
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna They're gonna take two separate paths this is

1092
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:26,760
Speaker 1: a minor little thing that it's annoying melately people. Anyways,

1093
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm off, I'm off the rail car. I'm in my own.

1094
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,479
Speaker 1: But my point with the Falcons here is like their

1095
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,399
Speaker 1: offense is either gonna go one or two ways. They're

1096
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 1: gonna have this one weird anomaly season where they scored

1097
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,120
Speaker 1: five hundred forty points seventy one more than the second

1098
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 1: highest place team and there's just this one year aberration,

1099
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 1: or they're gonna become one of the best offenses in

1100
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,439
Speaker 1: NFL history if they can keep up that sort of pace.

1101
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 1: So what are they going to be next year? What

1102
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,360
Speaker 1: does that mean for players like Julio Jones, you know snow,

1103
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 1: the ancillary guys. That's gonna be a questionable offseason and interesting.

1104
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,360
Speaker 1: Davante Adams seventy five catches a d T one targets

1105
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: through the year. Poor guy missed the group have a

1106
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:10,240
Speaker 1: beer together. Twelve total touchdowns for Davante Adams um Alex

1107
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,280
Speaker 1: galhar in twenty sixteen. He was, from a fantasy perspective,

1108
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 1: a great find. Yet it was frustrating at times playing

1109
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 1: him on a on a week to week basis because

1110
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 1: he would have huge games. He would fall off, he

1111
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:24,320
Speaker 1: would have future games again. But your takeaways for Davante

1112
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 1: Adams seen well, I think it was great to see

1113
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: him take that next step. And you know, so many

1114
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:33,359
Speaker 1: things conspired against him in fifteen, the expectations, the high

1115
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 1: ankle sprain that he played through so much, and we

1116
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,879
Speaker 1: saw he was one of the one of the better

1117
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 1: players in the league at his just off the line release,

1118
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 1: especially on slants and stuff. He just spun people around

1119
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,239
Speaker 1: and was consistently getting open. And Rogers even said that

1120
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,760
Speaker 1: this year Adams became the best route runnerund the team.

1121
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 1: So while his production was a little little spotty at times,

1122
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,400
Speaker 1: as you said, his ceilings were so worth worth chasing

1123
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 1: with him as a wide receiver to or a flex

1124
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:00,279
Speaker 1: option because he became a deep threat for them. He

1125
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: also became he was strong in the red zone for them,

1126
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 1: and uh, you had to take the good with the bad.

1127
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 1: There were still a couple of drops, but he also

1128
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,680
Speaker 1: made some spectacular catches and some spectacular plays this year.

1129
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 1: I would not expect another top ten finish next year,

1130
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 1: but I think he's firmly in that wide receiver two range.

1131
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean, the top ten finishes all about those toll touchdowns. Yeah,

1132
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 1: exactly are always going to be, especially Aaron Rodgers at quarterback.

1133
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 1: But you know, I would I would say that I

1134
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,480
Speaker 1: still think Adams at best is a really good long

1135
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 1: term number two receiver in the end, Like in the

1136
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,640
Speaker 1: actual I don't think like next year we're gonna see

1137
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,919
Speaker 1: Adams is the one and Nelson is the two, which

1138
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,040
Speaker 1: you never know that could end up being a storyline

1139
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,759
Speaker 1: in the off season. Brandon Cooks seventy eight catches, a

1140
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,919
Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen targets, eleven seventy three through the air,

1141
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:46,839
Speaker 1: eight touchdowns as well, Brandon Cooks was Brandon Cooks. I mean,

1142
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 1: you know, he had some big pop games and other

1143
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 1: games he was not so great. MG my gut, Marcus Grant,

1144
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:56,080
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is great in sixteen and looking forward to

1145
00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think you nailed it in

1146
00:55:58,200 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 1: terms of the description. He had some games where he

1147
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: the spiked, he had some games or he was just

1148
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: kind of middle of the road. Certainly scoring the number

1149
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 1: of touchdowns he did helped um. You know, overall, I

1150
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 1: don't know that he had as good a season just

1151
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 1: on the field as Michael Thomas, who I know, we'll

1152
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: get to Um. But he's a good fantasy wide receiver too.

1153
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: And you know again he'll because he is a Saints

1154
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: receiver and as long as Drew Brees is there and

1155
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,880
Speaker 1: they're running that same offense. Um, he will have games

1156
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 1: when he pops, and he will have games when he

1157
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,800
Speaker 1: will frustrates you because that is just who gets drafted

1158
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 1: first next year. Michael Thomas for Brandon Cooks Thomas Thomas.

1159
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 1: I'd take Thomas first, I think so. I think Brandon

1160
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 1: Cooks might have a little bit more name value, but

1161
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: you're right, I think Michael Thomas is gonna start flying

1162
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: up these draft boards. Speaking of ninety two receptions, uh,

1163
00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,360
Speaker 1: he was just one off of h in terms of

1164
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: rankings wide receiver rankings, one off of Brandon Cooks. Michael

1165
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,879
Speaker 1: Thomas ninety two receptions und twenty one targets. Again, more

1166
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,680
Speaker 1: targets than Brandon Cooks on the year. I know it's

1167
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,239
Speaker 1: just four, but he's a rookie. Just keep that in mind.

1168
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 1: Eleven seven receive thing and nine touchdowns. Again, he had

1169
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: more touchdowns than Brandon Cooks as well. Matt Harmon, you're

1170
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:09,879
Speaker 1: great for Michael Thomas. He had a spectacular rookie year. Yeah,

1171
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: he was awesome. There's there's really no two ways about it.

1172
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 1: The question going forward is just like how good? How

1173
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: good Canny be? Because he caught like over seventy five

1174
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,120
Speaker 1: percent of his targets. He led the team in targets

1175
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,760
Speaker 1: despite missing one game. I mean, you would think there's

1176
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:27,919
Speaker 1: nowhere to go but up, it's just yeah, it's he's

1177
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a fun player to watch because he's

1178
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 1: already super technically well developed. It's just gonna be about

1179
00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 1: distribution there in New Orleans, which is really the most

1180
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,280
Speaker 1: frustrating part. But he was the most predictable player this year.

1181
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: He was the guy in the red zone. Breeze really

1182
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 1: liked him right away. So I don't really see any

1183
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:45,960
Speaker 1: reason why Michael Thomas is not gonna be a wide

1184
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 1: receiver one for the next several seasons. Is he going

1185
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 1: to be taken in the first three rounds in next

1186
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 1: year's draft? I think I think so, or round pick

1187
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:55,920
Speaker 1: a worse. I think I feel like he may be

1188
00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 1: the one guy in that Saints offense that you feel

1189
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,360
Speaker 1: like you can count on weekly basis. Well, think about

1190
00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:03,800
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks was a third round pick this year. I

1191
00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 1: would imagine that there's really no reason Thomas would not

1192
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: be a third round pick in Okay. I like it.

1193
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin, your wide receiver ten ninety four catches, twenty

1194
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: five targets, receiving, seven touchdowns receiving, plus he had that

1195
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: one passing touchdown as well, And that's super fun. Rounding

1196
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 1: out your top your top fifteen, uh in order, Michael Crabtree,

1197
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, Tyrelle Williams, Hello, Rashard Matthews was number fourteen,

1198
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 1: and Tyreek Hill was your wide receiver fifteen on the year.

1199
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 1: Can we talk about Tyreek Hill very quickly, gentlemen, I'll

1200
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 1: throw it out to the group here. Tyreek Hill had

1201
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 1: a very interesting there's that word again, but but he did.

1202
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 1: He had a very interesting. Um I'll throw it out

1203
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: to the group. Would you guys think about Tyreek Hill

1204
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:50,960
Speaker 1: and can you do it again? I think in terms

1205
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 1: of could he do it again? Harmon shrug Emo seriously

1206
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 1: like the range of outcomes for Tyree Hill next year?

1207
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,760
Speaker 1: So wide man, because I mean, obviously he contributes in

1208
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: the return game, he contributes in the receiving game, he

1209
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 1: contributes in the rushing game. I mean he was a

1210
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,360
Speaker 1: listen he was a big changing force in their offense,

1211
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:14,360
Speaker 1: but huge. You know, is there gonna be some regression

1212
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: on a per touch basis in terms of his touchdowns,

1213
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 1: in terms of his yardage. I don't know, because I

1214
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 1: mean I've always I've already heard people throwout like Cordarol

1215
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 1: Patterson comparisons, and I don't know. I don't know about

1216
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,000
Speaker 1: all that and the big differences. I mean, I think

1217
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,480
Speaker 1: Patterson is still a really gifted athlete too. That you

1218
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 1: could do trying to get him to unblock you on Twitter.

1219
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,040
Speaker 1: I would love it if Cordariol Patterson woul unblocked me

1220
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 1: on Twitter. I'm so slighted by but I love c patt.

1221
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: I can't believe that trade me by by blocking me anyways.

1222
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 1: Um No, it actually is pretty funny. Adds a real

1223
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:48,640
Speaker 1: good layer to the storyline. But anyways, I think the

1224
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:52,760
Speaker 1: difference between Tyreek Hill come into his second year and

1225
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: Cordarol Patterson coming into his second year is Andy Reid.

1226
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: You know, Mike Zimmer and North Turner never really seemed

1227
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 1: to to bend the offense around to get Cordnerio Patterson

1228
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 1: the ball they really wanted him to be. Remember when

1229
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 1: there were reports that they had put ten or fifteen

1230
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: plays for c pat In. Remember when he had that

1231
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 1: one like end around or or rushing attempt in his

1232
01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: first game, first game, and then nothing after that. Then

1233
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 1: he called like two passes the next year. But anyways,

1234
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,480
Speaker 1: point being like, I think Reid will still find creative

1235
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,080
Speaker 1: ways to get tired to kill of the ball. It's

1236
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,280
Speaker 1: just his draft stock is going to be crazy to

1237
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: watch because if it goes real high, that could get

1238
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: pretty dangerous. Yeah. I want to give a quick shout

1239
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 1: out to Richard Matthews too, because he was dogged ear

1240
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: lay in the year, was barely playing any snaps, but

1241
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 1: they turned him into their number one receiver and he

1242
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: played really well down the stretch with Mariota. Uh, he's

1243
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,840
Speaker 1: currently the highest paid wide receiver on that roster. I'd

1244
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: imagine they go out and get mariotas some more help

1245
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 1: because Kendall writes a free agent if I'm not mistaken, um,

1246
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 1: but he was a beast in the red zone. He

1247
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,520
Speaker 1: caught like seventy five or more percent of his targets

1248
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 1: and had seven touchdowns in space. He can be a

1249
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 1: deep threat. He's not a pure like true number one receiver,

1250
01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 1: Like nobody's gonna scheme to stop Richard Matthews, but he

1251
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 1: has like zero name recognition, and I think he's gonna

1252
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,680
Speaker 1: be a guy that's gonna get overlooked a lot in drafts.

1253
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 1: That could be a huge value in those mid to

1254
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: light rounds. All right, So just wrapping up here, Larry

1255
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,680
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald led the league in terms of receptional receptions at

1256
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:20,479
Speaker 1: one o seven, Antonio Brown one oh six. In terms

1257
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,360
Speaker 1: of targets. Mike Evans led the league in terms of

1258
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 1: targets with one seventy three. Odell Beckham Jr. Was number

1259
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 1: two at one sixty nine. In terms of yardage, it

1260
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: was t Y Hilton number one in yardage fourteen forty eight.

1261
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 1: So there was not a single fifteen hundred yard wide receiver.

1262
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: I would imagine we see that trend reverse course in seventeen.

1263
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:43,200
Speaker 1: Just something to keep an eye on. In terms of touchdowns,

1264
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,920
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson was your league leader at fourteen. Davante Adams

1265
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 1: number two, and so was Mike Evans and Antonio Brown

1266
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 1: all there with twelve. All right, So there you go.

1267
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,280
Speaker 1: That's your look back at your twenty sixteen wide receivers,

1268
01:01:56,320 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: all right, we're running along. Let's do the daily DAPs

1269
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: to get the hell out of here. Desinite does depth depth.

1270
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 1: M Marcus Grant, give me a daily dap, sir, I'm

01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:53,400

01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:55,360

Speaker 1: How random? Is? They're amazing? All right? Let's go, man, harmon,

1286
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 1: what a two things one tap is to Pod Save America,

1287
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:13,560
Speaker 1: which UH. During the run up to the election, the

1288
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: Ringer had a podcast called Keeping It six, which was

1289
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 1: done by a bunch of former White House staffers on

1290
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:23,280
Speaker 1: Obama and UH. After the year, they broke off and

1291
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 1: started their own media company called Crooked Media and launched

1292
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 1: Pod Save America, which is a clever name. But it's

1293
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: a really good podcast. I mean, obviously it's left leaning

1294
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: because they were Obama staffers, but these are guys that

1295
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,000
Speaker 1: were in the White House, have a lot of experience,

1296
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 1: of a lot of knowledge, bring on a lot of

1297
01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: great guests, and it's a it's a really really good,

1298
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 1: pro really good program to listen to. I just sounded

1299
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:46,200
Speaker 1: like an old person they're saying, great, great program on

1300
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:52,280
Speaker 1: my podcast s. Tap. Anyways, shout out to Pod Save America.

01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 1: I really appreciate what those guys are doing and it's

1302
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 1: it's fascinating listen. And then second Daily DAP it's total

1303
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:03,720
Speaker 1: change of subject heres to Triple X Return of Xander Cage.

1304
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: I went to see it last night at the cheap

1305
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: movie had a couple of services beforehand. I have no

1306
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:13,400
Speaker 1: idea what the hell happened in that movie, but I know,

1307
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,680
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the hell out of it, because I can't

1308
01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 1: even tell you how often I laughed during that movie.

1309
01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 1: I don't know that it was intention I don't know.

1310
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 1: I still don't know if like everybody did it as

1311
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,160
Speaker 1: kind of like some sort of parody art, like we know,

1312
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:36,040
Speaker 1: this is even more over the top than anything anybody

1313
01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:38,280
Speaker 1: would expect, and they're gonna laugh, or if they were like, no,

1314
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 1: this is what the people want, like we'll just ham

1315
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 1: it up a little bit because it was ridiculous. So like,

1316
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,520
Speaker 1: if you want a good time, I'm watching it. There's

1317
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:50,240
Speaker 1: there's a lot going on in the world and stuff.

1318
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:51,960
Speaker 1: You want to turn your brain off for two hours,

1319
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,200
Speaker 1: go see this movie and tweetnear reactions because like I

1320
01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:58,280
Speaker 1: literally I asked my friend we came out of theaters.

1321
01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:00,360
Speaker 1: I was like, Kyle, what was the plot of that movie?

1322
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 1: And he's like he had to like stop and try

1323
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:07,439
Speaker 1: and go back and think. We literally just walked out

1324
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,400
Speaker 1: of the theater and we're talking about all the insane

1325
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,160
Speaker 1: stuff that happened. One of the people was struggling to

1326
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 1: remember the exact Oh my god, Matt Hard, do you

1327
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:17,000
Speaker 1: have anything or do you want me to go why

1328
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 1: don't you just get all right, I'll go. I've got

1329
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:21,160
Speaker 1: a curio of daily depths anyway, so I mine will

1330
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 1: be a little longer. The NFL Skills Competition so good.

1331
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: It was amazing. Thank you for bringing it back, Shadowy

1332
01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 1: leak figures. It was amazing. I can say it was.

1333
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 1: I was more engaged than I thought I would be

1334
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 1: with it. It was super fun to watch. I was

1335
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 1: just watching Dan Hansas and then I was watching it

1336
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 1: and I was like wrapped attention. That was pure joy.

1337
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 1: By the way, watching Dan Hansis watched the skills competition,

1338
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 1: he was like a kid on Chris seriously, just giggling,

1339
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 1: your favorite competition. I loved the QB accuracy dodge Dodgeball

1340
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,160
Speaker 1: was very entertaining. Dodgeball, well, it was kind of a

1341
01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:01,000
Speaker 1: mess at first, but at the end with t Y Hilton,

1342
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Oh that was awesome. I thought he was gonna catch

1343
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,680
Speaker 1: that last one from Ezekiel Elliott. I mean, it was

1344
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 1: just it was a mess because there were so many

1345
01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 1: gigantic men playing dodgeball in a small area. But that's

1346
01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 1: what made it fascinating cause I'm like, I just start

1347
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,640
Speaker 1: hurling him like he's there. It was great. It was

1348
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 1: really fun. It was fun. I thought the drone drop

1349
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:19,920
Speaker 1: was going to be lame. That was really cool too,

1350
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:21,960
Speaker 1: but then it was ended up being really cool. And

1351
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:23,200
Speaker 1: what did they call it? What was the other one,

1352
01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:24,880
Speaker 1: like the power thing or whatever where they had to

1353
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:30,880
Speaker 1: like Ninja warrior stuff lifting seven pounds sled and the

1354
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:33,880
Speaker 1: running backs are like a kool aid man. Just running

1355
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: through bricks was awesome. I don't know, man, I would

1356
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 1: I wish I could have ran through that start from

1357
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:42,160
Speaker 1: brick wall. That looked like a lot of fun. It

1358
01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:44,640
Speaker 1: was a lot of fun. Uh So the NFL Skills Competition,

1359
01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen it, please do it. Is it's awesome.

1360
01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:50,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to Daily Dap no franchise here, but I

1361
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:52,560
Speaker 1: will Daily Dap a song that I heard. It's a

1362
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:56,720
Speaker 1: Loupe Fiasco and featuring Gisele who was a female rapper

1370
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:23,080
