<v Speaker 1>This is one of the best weeks in the NFL

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>off season, and especially when you pair that with the

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.399
<v Speaker 1>March madness of the n c Double A. It's a

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:38.400
<v Speaker 1>great week everybody, Yeah, every But I mean, we're not

0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:41.039
<v Speaker 1>gonna talk too much about the n c A tournament here,

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:43.200
<v Speaker 1>but uh yeah, if you want to tweet me and

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>to talk a little hoops, we can do that as well.

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>But we're gonna have a busy week here at one

0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Jet Strip. Mike mccagnet in Indianapolis said the Jets will

0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>be active in free agency. He said that in January

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 1>when the season ended, He said, expect the team to

0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 1>be active, especially in the first day of free agency.

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>But since we're talking about Indianapolis, he and I went

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>to Indianapolis for the two NFL scouting combine. It was

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:09.720
<v Speaker 1>not negative two degrees like EA had warned me that

0:02:09.800 --> 0:02:13.840
<v Speaker 1>it usually is. It was actually pretty warm. Indianapolis is

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>a fun little city. It's a great city. It's a

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>great convention city. There has been talk and you heard

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.679
<v Speaker 1>some of this jet or yourself while we're in Indianapolis.

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Lee could possibly move the combine in future years. But

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what I think Indianapolis does a great job.

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Plenty of great restaurants in town for the folks at night,

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.280
<v Speaker 1>I want to go out and grab a quick bite

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:37.639
<v Speaker 1>to eat or get an adult beverage. We were set

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:43.080
<v Speaker 1>up perfectly Radio Row, the Jets set right behind esp

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of folks saw us on ESPN,

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.200
<v Speaker 1>so that was a nice little set up for us.

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:52.080
<v Speaker 1>And then we talked to a lot of people. We

0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:55.840
<v Speaker 1>listened to a lot of prospects and draft isn't too

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.000
<v Speaker 1>far away. I can't believe it's almost mid March now.

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 1>We're talking a little bit over a month. If you're

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.079
<v Speaker 1>a Jets fan right now, you're looking at it and saying, okay, well,

0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.079
<v Speaker 1>let's see what we get in free agency. But then

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 1>we have the sixth overall selection and we have three

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.080
<v Speaker 1>picks in the top forty nine overall. This is a

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.320
<v Speaker 1>draft that is supposed to have a lot of depth

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>in rounds two and three. I don't know how many

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 1>elite players, as Dane Brugler told us, are at the top.

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 1>With that being said, I think there are elite players.

0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where that breakoff point is, but there

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>are guys who definitely helped themselves in Indianapolis but I

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>would just reiterate that what you see on the field

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:44.920
<v Speaker 1>in Indianapolis should just be a confirmation of what you

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:50.480
<v Speaker 1>see on tape. That tape is what matters. Ethan, depending

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>upon yes, medicals, interviews, all those other things, yeah, no doubt.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.640
<v Speaker 1>But as far as the running, four neies, the verticals,

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>the bras, the shows, all those things are important to

0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>an extent. Obviously, there were some winners and losers, as

0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 1>there are every year of the two thous eighteen scouting

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 1>comment will talk with Matt Miller about who those guys

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 1>were in his eyes. But real quick about Indianapolis is

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:17.839
<v Speaker 1>two things that stood out to me about the city,

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>not so much about the football part of it. Is

0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.120
<v Speaker 1>one the same almost cocktail sauce you warned me about it.

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:26.680
<v Speaker 1>It is real. My nose was running like you saying bolt.

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 1>And two is everyone's starting this. Well we'll see if

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.920
<v Speaker 1>this makes the cut later on. But e as telling

0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:36.479
<v Speaker 1>me people in Indianapolis or not. Everyone's telling me. I

0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>was driving the first night we I drove us to dinner.

0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I got flipped off. Yeah, well yeah, but you're from

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the city. You're city guys, so your pop's probably taught

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:48.839
<v Speaker 1>you how to drive at a real young age in

0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.960
<v Speaker 1>the city, and you have to be aggressive and but

0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>but that was I was not aggressive with it. There

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 1>happened to be someone that was walking across the street

0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.480
<v Speaker 1>not looking, so I gave her a little throat clear,

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.839
<v Speaker 1>say hey, listen, look up. Did she had the don

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.400
<v Speaker 1>logs on? I had a green light. We were driving

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.680
<v Speaker 1>like a tank in Indianapolis and a great car. Listen,

0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 1>so you beeped? I didn't hunk. I gave a throw

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.040
<v Speaker 1>clear like a little just a little, a little tap

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>on the horn just to say, hey, listen, we're coming in.

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>So whatever, I'm fine. I'm fine with that. And you

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:20.440
<v Speaker 1>should be used to that. You're from New York, so

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm upset about I'm not upset about it. I was

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 1>just saying, oh, okay, Indianapolis got some spice. That's enough

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 1>about you. I want to talk some football draft about

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:38.719
<v Speaker 1>bringing in Matt Miller. Let's do it, Matt. We just

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:43.279
<v Speaker 1>got done with the Combine. Free agency is starting this week.

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to start with the NFL Draft and the Combine.

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Who gained the most out of all the prospects who

0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>were in Indianapolis. Well, I know you gonna talk about

0:05:57.400 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Shakeo Barkley, and yeah, he looks good, but we are

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.919
<v Speaker 1>knew he was really the consensus number one player in

0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:05.679
<v Speaker 1>the class. So I would look at someone like Bradley

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Chub who came in and tested exceptionally well defensive income

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.280
<v Speaker 1>around North Carolina State, and someone who I think is

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.599
<v Speaker 1>a top five lock right now that has to be

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:17.800
<v Speaker 1>talked about as whether it's the Indianapolis called to three,

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:20.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe even the New York Giants at too, depend on

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:22.680
<v Speaker 1>what's there. He is someone that I think teams are

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna be excited about. People I talked to say he's

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the hands down best defender in the draft, so he's

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna hear his name called early. And then a quarterback

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 1>that you guys have been leading to, Josh Allen continued

0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 1>to have a great off season that he looked good

0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:40.200
<v Speaker 1>at the Senior Bowl. We saw improved mechanics and all

0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:42.640
<v Speaker 1>that carried over to his combine work at as well.

0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:46.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, tested well athletically, shirt off that arm strength

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.279
<v Speaker 1>with that beautiful seventy R bob that he launched, just

0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.440
<v Speaker 1>again to show that he's taking the proper steps. He's

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 1>not over striding anymore when he grows so that work

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.840
<v Speaker 1>he's put in with Jordan Palmer this off season is

0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:59.800
<v Speaker 1>really paid off and helped him out so much to

0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 1>get to today. With Matt Miller. You can listen to

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:08.240
<v Speaker 1>his podcast Stick to Football. Matt, you mentioned Chub. A

0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of Jets fans asked me, Hey, can you be

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:17.200
<v Speaker 1>a three four rush linebacker if he did fall the six? Yeah,

0:07:17.240 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>I think he can be. And I think that's why

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the combins so important, because we get to see that

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.200
<v Speaker 1>agility and to see guys who kind of play with

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:25.720
<v Speaker 1>their hand in the journal at the time of college

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>stand up and move around and do some things, and

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>and to see you know, three cone times. Those are

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 1>such a good indicator of a guy's ability to move

0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>around and playing space. I think when we're talking about

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 1>pass rushers, so she would be a little bit of

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.920
<v Speaker 1>a bigger stand up rush linebacker. Me, he could absolutely

0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:42.040
<v Speaker 1>do it. And you know, as you guys known as

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>you're you're listening to know, the line is blurring in

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 1>the NFL between three or four or four three, it's

0:07:48.240 --> 0:07:50.320
<v Speaker 1>almost just the base package, and then you get into

0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 1>your passing situations and everybody wants that dominant white defensive

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.680
<v Speaker 1>ends and Chuck can be that. I think he could

0:07:57.680 --> 0:07:59.600
<v Speaker 1>come in and be a tin sack guy right away.

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>He's probably gonna great out comparably to where I had

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>someone like Joey Bosa since in terms of a grade,

0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>which Bosa is one of my favorite players in the

0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>league right now and one of the most productive too,

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:13.200
<v Speaker 1>So I definitely think that he's someone that can fit

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 1>a defends this game, and it would definitely be a

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>fit with what you guys got there, Matt, where do

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:21.200
<v Speaker 1>you stand on Virginia text Tremaine Edmonds? Because he's someone

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.760
<v Speaker 1>that I know has the eye of a lot of

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:27.360
<v Speaker 1>NFL fans because he's so big, he's so fast, he

0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>plays inside outside. But he's someone that I've seen in

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:34.280
<v Speaker 1>multiple mock drafts because it is officially mock draft season,

0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.320
<v Speaker 1>he's always been on the board at six and he's

0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:39.920
<v Speaker 1>never really been linked to the Jets in a mock

0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:42.920
<v Speaker 1>draft except for maybe one. So what's your stance on

0:08:43.000 --> 0:08:44.320
<v Speaker 1>him and how do you think he would fit in

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>a system under Todd Bowles If the Jets end up

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.760
<v Speaker 1>drafting him in April? You know you're right. He's big,

0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:53.199
<v Speaker 1>he's six five, tiftive, he's back, and he's young. He's

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.440
<v Speaker 1>only nineteen years old because he skipped some graze, so

0:08:56.880 --> 0:09:00.360
<v Speaker 1>you know he's just break Uh. That's really unlike anything

0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>we've seen. Athletically, I think he's like Anthony Barr and

0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>that's probably how you fit him into two Todd bol scheme.

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:09.560
<v Speaker 1>And he can be almost a matchup linebacker whether he's

0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 1>coverage or he can rush the quarterback at times. He

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>can definitely stack up against the run. So he just

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.760
<v Speaker 1>gives you a nicer winkle of a guy that can

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 1>move around and do a lot of different things for you.

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I think you could put ten pounds on and then

0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 1>make him an outside linebacker, roy rushers, quarterback full time.

0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.480
<v Speaker 1>You can also just keep him in the middle. They

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:30.680
<v Speaker 1>let him patrol and take all the tight ends. With

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the size and speed him matching up against Gronk would

0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.319
<v Speaker 1>be pretty fun to watch because he has the size

0:09:36.320 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and speed to take those tight ends up the seams.

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 1>So I think there's a lot of debate about where

0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 1>exactly do you put him in the NFL? Where does

0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 1>he fit? But everyone agrees he is a great athlete

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 1>a really really good player too. So if the Jets

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:53.800
<v Speaker 1>can you know, make a splash in free agency and

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 1>get through. They don't need to draft the quarterback at six.

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 1>He's absolutely someone that has to be in play because

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I would say that that, you know, getting someone who

0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 1>can get after the quarterback is a pretty big priority

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 1>for you guys. Well, we're gonna talk about potential splashes

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.520
<v Speaker 1>and free agency in a couple of moments with the

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Bleacher Reports Matt Miller. But in your latest mock draft,

0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:18.840
<v Speaker 1>you actually have the Jets going defense for which would

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.719
<v Speaker 1>be a tenth consecutive time in the first round, and

0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:25.760
<v Speaker 1>taking Denzil Ward out Ohio State. Now, there's some other

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:29.719
<v Speaker 1>corners up there on your big board. Make of Fitzpatrick,

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 1>a guy from Alabama is interesting, Joshua Jackson from Iowa.

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.720
<v Speaker 1>What do you like about Ward? And is he big

0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 1>enough to play man press on the outside in the NFL?

0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:44.839
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think that's a great question because he's

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.800
<v Speaker 1>a little undersized, right, and he's almost five eleven, he's

0:10:47.840 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 1>about buck nine D. But he's physical. I wouldn't watch

0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 1>him and your guy's backyard and went he's got him

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 1>against Rutgers and he's physical enough to play at the

0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:58.199
<v Speaker 1>line of scrimm and he could play in that fresh

0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 1>team because he does have long especially for his frame.

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:06.880
<v Speaker 1>He's tough, his technique is so clean in that press situation.

0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:10.120
<v Speaker 1>He's fast too, I mean he won't. He had the

0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:13.079
<v Speaker 1>fastest forty times in the combine. So we see that

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.640
<v Speaker 1>he has not only technique, but he has the speed

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:19.360
<v Speaker 1>and athleticism to execute those bail to to, you know,

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:21.839
<v Speaker 1>get up a guy's face and then carry them and

0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:24.959
<v Speaker 1>face down the fields. I loved inzel Ward as far as,

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:26.440
<v Speaker 1>like you said, there are a lot of good corners

0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:28.480
<v Speaker 1>in this class. I happen to think make of this.

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Patrick hasn't safety and you guys have two really good

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:34.360
<v Speaker 1>young ones, so he wouldn't be in play there. But again,

0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:37.160
<v Speaker 1>if some of the boxes can be checked in free agency,

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.599
<v Speaker 1>then I think you can get to the draft and

0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:42.160
<v Speaker 1>go after someone like intel Ward who's gonna give you

0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:45.120
<v Speaker 1>a number one corner that's twenty two years old, and

0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:48.320
<v Speaker 1>you compare with Jamal Adams and Marcus May and all

0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:51.040
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden you have this great young secondary. It's

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>also going to be really really cheap to have three

0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>key positions in that both defense checked off. That's an

0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.920
<v Speaker 1>outstanding point. And uh so you see Fitzpatrick as more

0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:04.280
<v Speaker 1>of a true free safety who can play cornerback as

0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 1>opposed to a guy who can come out and a

0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are gonna say, well, we're gonna play

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 1>him on the outside. Yeah, I do, and maybe even

0:12:11.559 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 1>more like, you know, almost like a slot corner. That's

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of what he did at Alabama this last

0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.559
<v Speaker 1>year because they liked to get him in the box

0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:21.680
<v Speaker 1>where he was so effective as a blitzer coming off

0:12:21.679 --> 0:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>the edge, taking away the run, spying quarterbacks. I think

0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 1>one thing that that we've seen with Minkas Tape. You know,

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.680
<v Speaker 1>he played outside corner early on in Alabama because some injuries,

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.480
<v Speaker 1>and he's played free safety, he's played down in the

0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.440
<v Speaker 1>box and a strong safety, he's played slot corner. So

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:39.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, he is kind of like we were talking

0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:42.320
<v Speaker 1>about with Tremaine Edmunds, someone that you probably could feel

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>like I could just match up really well each week

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 1>and you could move him around to say, Okay, you know,

0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:49.920
<v Speaker 1>if we're playing, you know, a team with a mobile quarterback,

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 1>maybe we want him in the box. Or if you're

0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:54.640
<v Speaker 1>playing the New England Patriots, maybe you want him matched

0:12:54.679 --> 0:12:57.440
<v Speaker 1>up against the tight end or taking away all those

0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:00.000
<v Speaker 1>of the crossing routes. And rub Routes that they loved him.

0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.280
<v Speaker 1>So I think he is someone that you don't have

0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.280
<v Speaker 1>to like throw just a position on him and say, okay,

0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 1>he's only gonna play free safety, single high. I think

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.400
<v Speaker 1>instead he's someone you can move around and almost like

0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 1>you know how Tyron Matthew was early in his career,

0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:15.680
<v Speaker 1>where you can just get a great match up with

0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:18.480
<v Speaker 1>him and try to take away the offensive best player. Well,

0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>we've been talking to Matt Miller from bleacher Report for

0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 1>about seven and a half minutes. We haven't even talked

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks yet. So if you had the over, I think

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:31.880
<v Speaker 1>you win. Matt. I'm gonna hold off on the quarterback

0:13:32.000 --> 0:13:35.120
<v Speaker 1>just because I have a couple more draft gritty questions

0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.320
<v Speaker 1>that I'm looking at your mock draft, and he brought

0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:40.040
<v Speaker 1>up Denz Award. But in the second round, the Jets

0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:42.199
<v Speaker 1>have two picks, have a lot of draft capital. Early

0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:45.080
<v Speaker 1>in the top fifty, at thirty seven, you have the

0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Green and White selecting Georgia's Lorenzo Carter, who had a

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.920
<v Speaker 1>very good week in Indianapolis. If you look at the

0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 1>forty he obviously he has extremely long arms. How helpful

0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:58.560
<v Speaker 1>was this event for him? Is he one of those

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.680
<v Speaker 1>guys that really you who's Indianapolis as kind of a

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:05.080
<v Speaker 1>catapult for his draft stock? I think so. And also

0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>he used the college football playoffs as a catapult days

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.880
<v Speaker 1>draft stock. You go into that and everyone's talking about

0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Rokean Smith and you start to see the other guy, right,

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's okay, well again as you get after the

0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:18.520
<v Speaker 1>quarterback a little bit, and yeah, he's had a great bill,

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:22.000
<v Speaker 1>super long arms, and oh, pretty good athlete, and then

0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the combine confirms all that that you've seen on tape.

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:27.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think that's why you know, Yeah, he's probably

0:14:27.680 --> 0:14:31.080
<v Speaker 1>moved up on a lot of draft boards, especially in

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:34.440
<v Speaker 1>the media over the last month or so, because he

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>had that splash at the end of the year and

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:39.280
<v Speaker 1>now he's backed up with good testing. So I'm intrigued

0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.520
<v Speaker 1>by him. Georgia produces some great linebackers. It's a bear

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the program for that. But I see him as someone

0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:47.720
<v Speaker 1>who could be a very good rush linebacker because of

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the athleticism, because the link and he wasn't used in

0:14:51.200 --> 0:14:53.240
<v Speaker 1>a full time role doing that at Georgia, but he

0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:56.359
<v Speaker 1>did it enough for us to see, Okay, yeah, he's

0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>he can have production here. He has the tools to

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.920
<v Speaker 1>be a really good stand up pass rusher. Hey, Matt

0:15:02.000 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>did Georgan Jenkins help you with your latest mock draft.

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:07.200
<v Speaker 1>You have Nick Chubb going to the Jets in the

0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 1>fourth round. I think the Green and White faithful will

0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 1>be rejoicing if that does happen to his job was

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.920
<v Speaker 1>a highly successful running back with the Dogs. Yeah, and

0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a great inside outside runner. Schub reminds me of like

0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a poor man's Frink Gorse and not a whole of

0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 1>fame run back like Frank Row. I'm not saying that,

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.520
<v Speaker 1>but someone who has that running style, and he might

0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.080
<v Speaker 1>not have the speed to turn the corner and hit

0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:33.880
<v Speaker 1>those home runs, but I think in inside those scheme

0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:36.160
<v Speaker 1>he has such good vision. He's gonna be able to

0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:38.680
<v Speaker 1>pick his spots. He's gonna be able to get those

0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 1>tough yards. He tested very well to combine better than

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.440
<v Speaker 1>I expected uh and shows that he still has even

0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:47.680
<v Speaker 1>though he might not have the great home run speed

0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 1>after the knee injury, but he does still have the agility,

0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:53.400
<v Speaker 1>to strength the vision. I think he's gonna be a

0:15:53.480 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 1>very good player if he can just get to the

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 1>right type of team that's going to use him and

0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:01.440
<v Speaker 1>really play to history were fast, and it's you most sorry.

0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Green's about the offensive line right now as far as

0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 1>this class is concerned, because you are one of the

0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>guys who has put Iowa's James Daniels on my radar

0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:14.560
<v Speaker 1>at the center position, because everybody is talking about Billy

0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>Price for a long time, and unfortunately he got up

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:21.760
<v Speaker 1>to the bench in Indianapolis suffered that partially torn pack

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:25.440
<v Speaker 1>that I believe will require surgery. Right now, Den Orlando

0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:31.640
<v Speaker 1>brown Head, by all accounts a tough Indianapolis, And uh,

0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of people mixed on this tackle class.

0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.200
<v Speaker 1>And then finally there are some folks met and you

0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.320
<v Speaker 1>know this better than me yor say, Quentin Nelson is

0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:42.400
<v Speaker 1>the cleanest prospect in the entire draft. Yeah, it's a

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 1>weird offensive line class because the interior old line is

0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:48.600
<v Speaker 1>so good, whether it's Quintin Nelson and Billy Price. He

0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 1>did have surgery, he told me last night. He's gonna

0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 1>be out about three months. James Daniels declares early from Iowa,

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:58.360
<v Speaker 1>and he is just so smooth playing center. Will Hernandez,

0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I'd say a wind from Georgia gonna kick down from

0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.240
<v Speaker 1>left tackle to play guard in the NFL. It's a

0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:06.360
<v Speaker 1>very good interior offensive line class, but you do get

0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to those tackles, and some people think that text and

0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.520
<v Speaker 1>is Connor Williams maybe should be a guarden because he

0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 1>has thirty three inch arms. I still haven't to think

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:17.160
<v Speaker 1>he could play tackle. You're absolutely right, Orlando Brown's Oklahoma

0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:20.800
<v Speaker 1>have the worst combine performance I've ever seen. Barn And

0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:24.280
<v Speaker 1>not just a five a five forty, but fourteen reps

0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:26.920
<v Speaker 1>on the bench. What a nineteen inch divert. I mean,

0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 1>it was just if you even just look at the numbers,

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:33.040
<v Speaker 1>people who had like the percent test rate that he

0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.360
<v Speaker 1>did don't get drafted. And this was a guy everyone

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 1>was saying was a bushground pick not that long ago.

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>I was not a huge fan of his tape. I

0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:43.560
<v Speaker 1>went and watched him in person a couple of times.

0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:46.120
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think he could move very well. I thought

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:47.960
<v Speaker 1>he could move a little better than he did an Indy.

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>So he needs to redeem himself at his pro day.

0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:53.760
<v Speaker 1>But on the inside, this offensive line class is very good.

0:17:53.800 --> 0:17:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I think on the outside you almost have to have

0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 1>a bit of an imagination. Mike mcglenchie from Notre Dame

0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 1>is a plug and play ready guy, but he struggled

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.720
<v Speaker 1>with speed rushers. You can watch the Miami or Georgia

0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:07.919
<v Speaker 1>games for Notre Dame. He really struggled there, So he's

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.280
<v Speaker 1>probably gonna have to play on the right side. Colton

0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Miller from u C L a great athlete. But there's

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>a reason Josh Rosen was hurt all the time. It's

0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:18.480
<v Speaker 1>because there's a lot of pressure coming off the left

0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 1>side of that line. So Culton nor even needs a

0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:22.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of work despite the fact that he tested well

0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and looks like a great athlete. Yeah, you said he's

0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:26.119
<v Speaker 1>got to get in the weight room a little bit.

0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Looks a little too lean. Yeah, it looks like a

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.960
<v Speaker 1>basketball players still a lot a little bit before I

0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:35.040
<v Speaker 1>touch on the receivers with you real quick, Matt is

0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:38.680
<v Speaker 1>someone like Orlando Brown? What do you have benefited from

0:18:38.720 --> 0:18:42.320
<v Speaker 1>just not participating in the combine and just saving all

0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.879
<v Speaker 1>the drills for his pro day after weighing in and

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:47.840
<v Speaker 1>being measured. I think there's two schools of thought there.

0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:49.399
<v Speaker 1>You can look at it that way and said, no,

0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to test to also let me save

0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:53.600
<v Speaker 1>it for the pro day. But the problem is then

0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 1>if you bomb the pro day, you don't have a

0:18:56.040 --> 0:18:59.040
<v Speaker 1>chance to redeem yourself, so it's almost better when you're

0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:02.040
<v Speaker 1>not and half way order is not an athletic guy

0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:04.560
<v Speaker 1>to have as many chances as possible to approve it.

0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:07.040
<v Speaker 1>So you know he runs up five eight five in

0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 1>in Indie. He's gonna run a little bit faster pro day,

0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:13.400
<v Speaker 1>you would hope, and so it's probably calculated. It might

0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:15.480
<v Speaker 1>also be the fact where you know he just he

0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 1>knows he's not going to test you below and he

0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:20.159
<v Speaker 1>can say, hey, like my film was good. I was

0:19:20.119 --> 0:19:22.400
<v Speaker 1>an All American. I didn't give up a fact. Who

0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:24.639
<v Speaker 1>cares how fast I run a Ford? He go up

0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:27.440
<v Speaker 1>to the film, So he's in a tricky spot. Hopefully

0:19:27.480 --> 0:19:30.400
<v Speaker 1>his agents are doing some damage control. You know, I'm

0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:35.840
<v Speaker 1>fascinated by this year's Receiving Corps because you look at

0:19:35.880 --> 0:19:38.760
<v Speaker 1>all the draft pundits, including yourself, and you see calver

0:19:38.880 --> 0:19:41.800
<v Speaker 1>ban Lee is universally number one, and then two to

0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:46.080
<v Speaker 1>five is different depending upon whose list you're looking at.

0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:49.480
<v Speaker 1>So I wanted to know, based on last week's performance

0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.040
<v Speaker 1>in Indianapolis, who are some of the guys that you

0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:54.800
<v Speaker 1>think have separated themselves from the pack, maybe had a

0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:58.040
<v Speaker 1>good week or a bad week to improve and does

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Equanimius st. Brown have the best name in the NFL

0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:04.080
<v Speaker 1>draft this year? Well, that's a load of question, I'm

0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:06.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell you right now, man. I like the Scotland

0:20:06.440 --> 0:20:10.159
<v Speaker 1>Sutton kid from No. I like Courtland sudden lot and

0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:11.680
<v Speaker 1>he had a good week. I was gonna say, guys,

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:15.639
<v Speaker 1>the players that receiver who had good weeks where it

0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:17.679
<v Speaker 1>doesn't help us because it was all those guys that

0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.960
<v Speaker 1>are stuck in that here after Calvin Ridley. So like

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:23.440
<v Speaker 1>you wanted to see, okay, who's going to separate from

0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.479
<v Speaker 1>Courtlet Sutton and Christian Kirky d J. Moore. The problem

0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>is they all did say well, so we're still kind

0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:31.040
<v Speaker 1>of stuck in this conundrum of waiting to see it.

0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Even Gian came from Clinton who kind of became an

0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.880
<v Speaker 1>afterthought this year because they just didn't have the passing

0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:40.399
<v Speaker 1>production for him to really showcase himself. He also ran well.

0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:42.920
<v Speaker 1>So it gets to a point where you kind of

0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:46.239
<v Speaker 1>wanted to combine to be a separator, and it just

0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.480
<v Speaker 1>wasn't because all those guys did perform well. Cointletd Sunt

0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:52.399
<v Speaker 1>has excellent size and the combine was so important for

0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>him because he needed to show that he could move.

0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:57.040
<v Speaker 1>He didn't go to the Senior Bowl, so the Combine

0:20:57.119 --> 0:20:59.600
<v Speaker 1>kids chance to prove that he had the speed to

0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 1>stray the field and separated from guys. And he's a

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:04.480
<v Speaker 1>big jude. That a run as well as he did,

0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I was really really impressive and it might get him

0:21:07.200 --> 0:21:09.320
<v Speaker 1>into the push range. Where are you right now with

0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the quarterbacks? Sam Donald did not throw Baker Mayfield as

0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:17.159
<v Speaker 1>you said, Hey, let's stop those comparisons to guys like

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson because he didn't run that fast. But a

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:22.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of people would argue he is the best pure

0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.959
<v Speaker 1>passer as far as accuracy in the draft. Josh Allen,

0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:31.440
<v Speaker 1>perhaps maybe his stock is up. Lamar Jackson I thought

0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:35.720
<v Speaker 1>was cool. Form my perspective. He said, listen, I'm a quarterback.

0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:38.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to run. People know I can run.

0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:41.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to show you what I can do throwing

0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:43.720
<v Speaker 1>the football, and I know either not even workout. But

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I liked his approach. Where do you stand on all

0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:49.680
<v Speaker 1>these guys? And finally about Mason Rudolph, I know that's

0:21:49.680 --> 0:21:53.639
<v Speaker 1>a guy you like there in the Middlewest. Yeah, I

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 1>really do. It's like a second round guy who could

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:59.200
<v Speaker 1>be a startup for you. It's a weird quarterback clack

0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:02.080
<v Speaker 1>because I could run down a list with you guys

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:04.600
<v Speaker 1>of all the things I like about HISS quarterback because

0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:07.800
<v Speaker 1>they all have a really good trait and really good quality.

0:22:08.320 --> 0:22:10.480
<v Speaker 1>And on the flip side, we could run down a

0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:12.480
<v Speaker 1>list of all the things I don't like because about

0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:15.880
<v Speaker 1>these guys, because they all have a really big question mark.

0:22:15.960 --> 0:22:19.560
<v Speaker 1>It's a it's a really fascinating year, unlike you know

0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 1>last year with Travisky and Watson, the ma homes. Sam

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:25.760
<v Speaker 1>Donald had twenty two turnovers and has a funky throwing motion.

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:28.800
<v Speaker 1>And Rosen has been hurt a lot and might not

0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 1>be the most well liked guy by you know, coaches

0:22:31.600 --> 0:22:35.119
<v Speaker 1>and owners and some of the older crowd. Baker's short,

0:22:35.520 --> 0:22:39.640
<v Speaker 1>not explosively athletic, and he can be a little fiery

0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:42.840
<v Speaker 1>off the field, and all that. Josh Allen, you know,

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:45.159
<v Speaker 1>was not accurate in college, so you gotta phase out

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:48.200
<v Speaker 1>if you could fix that. LaMarche action also not very

0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 1>accurate in college. And a guy who does his style

0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>as a predominant runner, does that translate to the NFL.

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:56.919
<v Speaker 1>So there are big questions about all of them. But

0:22:57.040 --> 0:22:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I liked this quarterback class. I think there are six

0:22:59.240 --> 0:23:01.040
<v Speaker 1>guys that we've taught it's about to deserve to be

0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:04.560
<v Speaker 1>drafted in the top fifty or fifty five picks, and

0:23:04.600 --> 0:23:07.159
<v Speaker 1>some of that is supplied first demand. These teams are

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.720
<v Speaker 1>going to draft quarterbacks early. You guys might do one

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:13.080
<v Speaker 1>of them. And it's also it's just become the economics

0:23:13.080 --> 0:23:16.080
<v Speaker 1>of the NFL that if you're drafting early, you get

0:23:16.080 --> 0:23:19.480
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback because you can build as we've seen so

0:23:19.520 --> 0:23:20.879
<v Speaker 1>many of these teams do, like look at what the

0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Rams are doing. You have, even with a quarterback selected

0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 1>first overall inexpensive compared to how much you're gonna pay

0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:30.000
<v Speaker 1>the you know, Kirk Cousins of the world. So you

0:23:30.040 --> 0:23:33.400
<v Speaker 1>can really load up a roster. And there's no one

0:23:33.440 --> 0:23:35.600
<v Speaker 1>that I would put at that level of Jared Golf

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:38.920
<v Speaker 1>or Carson Wentz. They're probably all closer to where I have,

0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:42.560
<v Speaker 1>like Deshaun Watson and Tropisky last year. But if they

0:23:42.560 --> 0:23:45.119
<v Speaker 1>can get in the right situations, each of these guys

0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:47.280
<v Speaker 1>could be a very good starter in the NFL. It's

0:23:47.280 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 1>so much about situation. You know, what kind of offensive scheme,

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 1>who do they have a left tackle? Who they have

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:56.280
<v Speaker 1>a wide receiver. Do they have Tis early behind them?

0:23:56.400 --> 0:23:59.119
<v Speaker 1>Those types of things really helped out what Tom Bowl said.

0:23:59.320 --> 0:24:03.280
<v Speaker 1>The Jets have to have multiple plans at the quarterback position.

0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:06.399
<v Speaker 1>Mike mccagnet has continued to reiterate throughout the off season

0:24:06.880 --> 0:24:10.680
<v Speaker 1>all options on the table. As we start free agency

0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:14.960
<v Speaker 1>week here, the Las Vegas odds have Minnesota one to three,

0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:18.720
<v Speaker 1>don Ver Broncos ten to three, the Jets five to one,

0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:21.359
<v Speaker 1>in the Arizona Cardinals fifteen and one to get the

0:24:21.400 --> 0:24:26.159
<v Speaker 1>services of Kirk Cousins. Adam Schefter said, those four teams

0:24:26.160 --> 0:24:29.360
<v Speaker 1>are in the mix. You actually talked to some folks.

0:24:29.480 --> 0:24:33.320
<v Speaker 1>You think that this could come down to Minnesota and

0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:38.840
<v Speaker 1>the Jets. What is your overall take on Kirk Cousins

0:24:38.880 --> 0:24:42.879
<v Speaker 1>in the situation he is facing this week? One of

0:24:43.000 --> 0:24:45.639
<v Speaker 1>you guys him, I might have to talking. I might

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:49.679
<v Speaker 1>pay back pretty good. My vacation this summer might be

0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:52.920
<v Speaker 1>paid for a real soon. Uh. I like Kirk Cousins.

0:24:52.960 --> 0:24:55.679
<v Speaker 1>I love him. In the Jeremy Bates offense, I mean

0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>this is, you know, an offense that is close to

0:24:59.200 --> 0:25:00.960
<v Speaker 1>my heart as a someone who grew up a forty

0:25:01.000 --> 0:25:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Niners fan and wanted to be the next Bill Walsh.

0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:07.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, so much of this often is from that foundation,

0:25:07.680 --> 0:25:11.040
<v Speaker 1>and we've seen Kirk Cousins played in that scheme, you know,

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:15.000
<v Speaker 1>under Kyle Shanahan, under Sean McVeigh. We've seen him have success.

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 1>So you don't have to have an imagination to wonder,

0:25:18.440 --> 0:25:21.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, how Cousin's gonna stick in this offense, because

0:25:21.080 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>we've seen him do it, and we've seen him had

0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:26.440
<v Speaker 1>a high level of success. And I think one thing

0:25:26.520 --> 0:25:30.160
<v Speaker 1>that you know, in Washington, he had that success sometimes

0:25:30.160 --> 0:25:32.840
<v Speaker 1>without a great supporting cast. You know, yes, they had

0:25:32.840 --> 0:25:36.000
<v Speaker 1>a good offensive line, but they've never had a featured

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:38.639
<v Speaker 1>running back who can take pressure off Cousins, kind of

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:41.160
<v Speaker 1>like we saw Leonard Burnette do for Black Bartles this year,

0:25:41.240 --> 0:25:43.840
<v Speaker 1>or like we see Ty Gurley do with Jeric Goff.

0:25:44.160 --> 0:25:46.119
<v Speaker 1>And even a receiver, there's been a bit of a

0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:48.879
<v Speaker 1>revolving door as they kind of, you know, retool that

0:25:48.960 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver corps so often. So I even think that

0:25:52.320 --> 0:25:55.119
<v Speaker 1>cousins best football might still be ahead of him, just

0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:59.200
<v Speaker 1>because he's gonna get somewhere where number one he feels

0:25:59.280 --> 0:26:02.320
<v Speaker 1>wanted and sided at number two where you can build

0:26:02.320 --> 0:26:06.399
<v Speaker 1>a plan around him to give him actual receivers, a

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:08.879
<v Speaker 1>deep receiving core where you can you know, if you

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:11.320
<v Speaker 1>have that quarterback knee checked off, you can get a

0:26:11.320 --> 0:26:13.720
<v Speaker 1>good running back to help him out. So I'm a

0:26:13.760 --> 0:26:16.400
<v Speaker 1>Cousin's guy. I was way too low on him coming

0:26:16.400 --> 0:26:19.560
<v Speaker 1>out on Michigan State. I've tried to make amends for

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.000
<v Speaker 1>that sense, but I do believe he's the type of

0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:25.160
<v Speaker 1>quarterback that can win and with a good supporting cast,

0:26:25.280 --> 0:26:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I think he could win a Super Are you way

0:26:26.920 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 1>too low on him? I don't remember what what did

0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 1>you have him? I think I had like a third

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 1>round grade on him and he ended up becoming a

0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:36.919
<v Speaker 1>really good daughter. So that's a quarterback class. I mean

0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:39.520
<v Speaker 1>that was That was Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousins. So

0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:42.800
<v Speaker 1>those are the two guys I'll always remember being way

0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:46.080
<v Speaker 1>too low. Listen, you're not. Come on, you're not. You'd

0:26:46.080 --> 0:26:48.200
<v Speaker 1>be a little bit hard on yourself. You're not alone.

0:26:48.440 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's consider where they went in the draft and the other.

0:26:51.400 --> 0:26:53.840
<v Speaker 1>My other thing is I remember interview and I know

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:56.560
<v Speaker 1>you were down there that year because we have been

0:26:56.880 --> 0:27:01.199
<v Speaker 1>going there for multiple years. Ethan Uh actually represented us

0:27:01.240 --> 0:27:04.399
<v Speaker 1>down the Jets three sixty team downtomobile this year. But

0:27:04.440 --> 0:27:09.240
<v Speaker 1>I remember interviewing both him and Russell Wilson and being

0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:14.520
<v Speaker 1>so impressed with their intellect and their maturity those guys

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:17.439
<v Speaker 1>coming out because we often forget, you know, as we

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:20.120
<v Speaker 1>continue to get older, Matt is that these guys are

0:27:20.119 --> 0:27:22.840
<v Speaker 1>so young when they come out. But those guys had

0:27:23.080 --> 0:27:27.119
<v Speaker 1>something upstairs that you're like, yeah, you can see them

0:27:27.160 --> 0:27:30.400
<v Speaker 1>being the guy, but physically can they be the guy? Yeah?

0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:34.240
<v Speaker 1>And I actually that year was my first combine and

0:27:34.520 --> 0:27:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I got somehow got access to go and watch them

0:27:37.240 --> 0:27:41.040
<v Speaker 1>warm up and like go through their script basically what

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:42.480
<v Speaker 1>they were going to be the next day. It's been

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:45.960
<v Speaker 1>several hours with them, and just remember their trainer pushing

0:27:45.960 --> 0:27:47.440
<v Speaker 1>me so hard, like you's got to get these guys

0:27:47.520 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 1>up in your rankings so good. And if he doesn't

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:55.320
<v Speaker 1>remind me of that every time, I feel so in

0:27:55.359 --> 0:27:58.880
<v Speaker 1>your mind, what should the Jets if that is their

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:03.800
<v Speaker 1>plan a which external speculation as sworld for months now

0:28:03.840 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 1>that Jets would have some kind of interest in Kirk Cousins,

0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 1>if that's the plan of any signs elsewhere, what do

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:13.160
<v Speaker 1>you think should be there alternative plans or I shouldn't

0:28:13.160 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 1>even say alternative plans, but there are other plans because,

0:28:16.240 --> 0:28:19.119
<v Speaker 1>like I think, it's all connected free agency in the draft,

0:28:19.240 --> 0:28:21.960
<v Speaker 1>like you were talking about before, it is all connected,

0:28:22.000 --> 0:28:24.320
<v Speaker 1>and you have to have the contingency plans if it

0:28:24.400 --> 0:28:27.600
<v Speaker 1>doesn't work out. So I think one really smart thing

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 1>That's Runt Office did was trading Chagrin Richardson and getting

0:28:30.800 --> 0:28:33.280
<v Speaker 1>not only Tremaine Curse, but that extra second round pick.

0:28:33.640 --> 0:28:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Because now you do have, like you guys said earlier,

0:28:35.760 --> 0:28:38.560
<v Speaker 1>the draft capital that if you fall in love with

0:28:38.600 --> 0:28:41.200
<v Speaker 1>one of the quarterbacks Mission's class, now you have the

0:28:41.240 --> 0:28:44.520
<v Speaker 1>ammunition to move up from six to get one. You know,

0:28:44.560 --> 0:28:47.880
<v Speaker 1>even if Cleveland takes Sam Donald at one and say

0:28:47.960 --> 0:28:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Kwan goes to and Chub goes three, the Browns might

0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:52.640
<v Speaker 1>be willing to trade out of four and you can

0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:54.920
<v Speaker 1>get in front of Denver and you know, to move

0:28:55.000 --> 0:28:57.240
<v Speaker 1>up two spots. It's not gonna cost the time. So

0:28:57.600 --> 0:29:00.200
<v Speaker 1>now you have the draft capital to be a say

0:29:00.280 --> 0:29:03.280
<v Speaker 1>to make a move, but not completely mortgage your future

0:29:03.440 --> 0:29:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and give up, you know, the opportunity to get still

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:09.160
<v Speaker 1>some starters out of the Shears draft. So I would

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:10.480
<v Speaker 1>look at it that way. You know, this is a

0:29:10.560 --> 0:29:13.960
<v Speaker 1>quarterback class with four guys who have been projected to

0:29:13.960 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 1>go top ten with Sam Donald, Josh Rose and Josh

0:29:16.840 --> 0:29:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Allen and Baker Mayfield all expected to be drafted pretty early.

0:29:20.560 --> 0:29:24.440
<v Speaker 1>They all have starter trades, franchise quarterback trades. It's just

0:29:24.480 --> 0:29:26.760
<v Speaker 1>a matter of kind of vetting the weaknesses they all

0:29:26.800 --> 0:29:29.440
<v Speaker 1>bring to the table. But I think it's six you're

0:29:29.440 --> 0:29:31.560
<v Speaker 1>in the spot where you could get a quarterback this fall.

0:29:31.800 --> 0:29:34.239
<v Speaker 1>But they also have the room now to move up

0:29:34.240 --> 0:29:37.080
<v Speaker 1>if they need to. If the Jets answer a quarterback

0:29:37.480 --> 0:29:40.080
<v Speaker 1>is indeed through the draft and either with that sixth

0:29:40.080 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 1>pick or let's say, like you said, they trade up

0:29:42.320 --> 0:29:45.320
<v Speaker 1>to four. Who do you think schematically makes sense for

0:29:45.360 --> 0:29:47.240
<v Speaker 1>the Jets and who would you like to see in

0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:50.440
<v Speaker 1>New York come April. Yeah, well, I think I think

0:29:50.440 --> 0:29:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Baker Mayfield does spit that offense. Well, he's accurate. Um,

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:55.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's one thing to get lost with him,

0:29:55.600 --> 0:29:58.080
<v Speaker 1>it's just how accurate he is. He operates will on

0:29:58.120 --> 0:30:00.280
<v Speaker 1>the move, so you can, you know, get him the

0:30:00.320 --> 0:30:02.720
<v Speaker 1>outside of the pocket a little bit. He doesn't turn

0:30:02.760 --> 0:30:05.320
<v Speaker 1>the ball over, He's smart with the football thematically, he

0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:07.480
<v Speaker 1>could be a fit, and I think Josh Allen could

0:30:07.520 --> 0:30:09.800
<v Speaker 1>be as well, he doesn't need some things cleaned up.

0:30:09.840 --> 0:30:12.000
<v Speaker 1>If you're going to draft either of those guys, who

0:30:12.040 --> 0:30:14.440
<v Speaker 1>would be best to have a free agent veteran like

0:30:14.520 --> 0:30:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Josh McCown back because they're not going to be ready

0:30:16.960 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 1>to step right in. There's going to be a learning curve.

0:30:20.040 --> 0:30:22.640
<v Speaker 1>But I think either guys fits really well just because

0:30:22.640 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 1>of the mobility that they put to the table. I

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:29.040
<v Speaker 1>think Josh's arm is gonna allow whomever drafts him to

0:30:29.080 --> 0:30:32.360
<v Speaker 1>really open up their offense because you know, he effortlessly

0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:35.360
<v Speaker 1>throws those deep outs and the comebacks that some of

0:30:35.360 --> 0:30:38.360
<v Speaker 1>the other guys aren't able to reach like he can.

0:30:38.840 --> 0:30:41.239
<v Speaker 1>So I could see either one of those players been

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 1>a really good fit. Yeah. I thought Alan Stock was

0:30:43.800 --> 0:30:47.200
<v Speaker 1>really gonna fall after the Senior Ball and I know

0:30:47.280 --> 0:30:49.960
<v Speaker 1>you guys were down there watching practices and things like that.

0:30:50.520 --> 0:30:55.440
<v Speaker 1>It sounded like he hadn't okay week where is in Indianapolis.

0:30:55.520 --> 0:30:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I think he really helped himself. And now we're talking

0:30:58.440 --> 0:31:01.080
<v Speaker 1>about all of a sudden, I don't know if Josh

0:31:01.080 --> 0:31:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Allen is gonna last be on the top six or

0:31:04.200 --> 0:31:06.800
<v Speaker 1>seven texts in the draft. Yeah, and he might not

0:31:06.840 --> 0:31:08.880
<v Speaker 1>make a touch for the first pick you know, yeah,

0:31:09.040 --> 0:31:11.360
<v Speaker 1>I know you think you think it's gonna be Donald

0:31:11.440 --> 0:31:16.640
<v Speaker 1>or Allen. Right there, Shake has done enough to throw

0:31:16.720 --> 0:31:18.880
<v Speaker 1>himself into that conversation. I can remember a couple of

0:31:18.920 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 1>months ago running through a Jets mock draft with my

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.120
<v Speaker 1>coach KNYA Rogers, and it was like, man stick on

0:31:24.280 --> 0:31:26.800
<v Speaker 1>my father the Jets. How amazing would that be? And

0:31:26.840 --> 0:31:29.480
<v Speaker 1>now it's like, there's no way he's gonna make it

0:31:29.600 --> 0:31:33.040
<v Speaker 1>to six. So unfortunately, because you guys do have a

0:31:33.080 --> 0:31:35.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of fun with him. He's a great player and

0:31:35.320 --> 0:31:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a great person, but and he grew up a Jets fan.

0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:41.240
<v Speaker 1>He grew up a Jets fan. Yeah, that's why we

0:31:41.240 --> 0:31:43.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't even waste any of your time today talking about

0:31:43.400 --> 0:31:46.560
<v Speaker 1>se Kwan because he's a beast, and he had a

0:31:46.600 --> 0:31:49.720
<v Speaker 1>fantastic combine and he's a great kid, and I just

0:31:49.760 --> 0:31:53.240
<v Speaker 1>can't see him being around after the top three overall

0:31:53.280 --> 0:31:55.959
<v Speaker 1>selections in the draft. You gotta follow this guy at

0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:59.120
<v Speaker 1>the NFL Draft Scout. You gotta listen to his podcast,

0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Stick the Football. I'm a big I P A fan,

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:04.640
<v Speaker 1>so I gotta ask you a couple of questions. I

0:32:04.680 --> 0:32:08.640
<v Speaker 1>know you gave somebody a recommendation about Bolivard Tank seven.

0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:12.200
<v Speaker 1>There's a brewery in Brooklyn six points resident. You ever

0:32:12.240 --> 0:32:18.760
<v Speaker 1>had that before? I haven't got y R s I N.

0:32:18.880 --> 0:32:24.520
<v Speaker 1>They're in cans. It is fantastic, very smooth, high alcohol percentage,

0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 1>but a smooth beor nice hops. More of a Northeastern

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I PM. I'm not gonna let Mac go until he

0:32:31.680 --> 0:32:34.880
<v Speaker 1>tells me his favorite name in the two NFL draft

0:32:34.920 --> 0:32:39.480
<v Speaker 1>class based based on a name perspective, because the two

0:32:39.480 --> 0:32:43.400
<v Speaker 1>that stick out to me or Equanimius st. Brown and

0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Hercules motta Offa. Okay, okay, I figured, yeah, alright, that's

0:32:52.920 --> 0:32:55.720
<v Speaker 1>that's all I got. That's that's draft chat here on

0:32:55.760 --> 0:32:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the Official Jet podcast again, like he said, Follow Matt

0:32:59.680 --> 0:33:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Miller on Twitter, NFL Draft Scout, Listen to his podcast

0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Stick to Football. It gets me through traffic in the morning. Matt,

0:33:06.720 --> 0:33:10.440
<v Speaker 1>thanks a lot. Yeah, I heard, uh, I heard your

0:33:10.520 --> 0:33:17.719
<v Speaker 1>name was almost Hercules Mataafa. Pardon me, Hercules Mataafa is

0:33:17.960 --> 0:33:20.400
<v Speaker 1>one of the players in this year's draft, and that's

0:33:20.440 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>who Matt Miller believes, as you just told us, is

0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:25.960
<v Speaker 1>the best name in the draft, along with e Q st.

0:33:25.960 --> 0:33:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Brown of Notre Dame, who has said that three times today. Greens.

0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk about free agency here. When I look at

0:33:32.080 --> 0:33:35.560
<v Speaker 1>free agency right now, Greens, you look internally first, and

0:33:36.120 --> 0:33:39.600
<v Speaker 1>some of the unrestricted free agents that Jets have right

0:33:39.600 --> 0:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>now with expiring contracts include Morris Claiborne, toa Mario Davis,

0:33:45.360 --> 0:33:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Josh McCown, and Austin Seferian Jenkins. So those are the

0:33:49.760 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 1>four guys at the top of my list internally who

0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be real intrigued to see where are they going?

0:33:56.120 --> 0:33:59.400
<v Speaker 1>Are they gonna stay here or maybe elsewhere? Well? Who

0:33:59.400 --> 0:34:02.240
<v Speaker 1>are you in tregue by externally? Because I have my

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:04.520
<v Speaker 1>eyes on a couple of guys. One guy in particular

0:34:04.920 --> 0:34:07.680
<v Speaker 1>is Allen Robinson. Played for the Jaguars since he was

0:34:07.760 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 1>drafted in the second round out of Penn State, and

0:34:10.080 --> 0:34:12.719
<v Speaker 1>he only played three plays this season. I mean, his

0:34:12.800 --> 0:34:15.280
<v Speaker 1>stat line this year is one catch for seventeen yards

0:34:15.520 --> 0:34:17.560
<v Speaker 1>because he tore his a c L. But this is

0:34:17.600 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 1>someone who's gonna be twenty five years old. He's a

0:34:20.080 --> 0:34:23.279
<v Speaker 1>big receiver, right Yeah. At fourteen and fifteen when he

0:34:23.320 --> 0:34:25.560
<v Speaker 1>had his breakout year fourteen hundred yards and he led

0:34:25.600 --> 0:34:30.239
<v Speaker 1>the NFL with fourteen touchdowns and could last year's free

0:34:30.280 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 1>agency market like an, Alshon Jeffrey kind of set the

0:34:33.600 --> 0:34:37.160
<v Speaker 1>precedent for someone like Robinson because Jeffrey had a down year,

0:34:37.400 --> 0:34:40.200
<v Speaker 1>he signed a one year contract with fourteen million dollars

0:34:40.200 --> 0:34:43.600
<v Speaker 1>with the Eagles and then he signed an extension for

0:34:44.040 --> 0:34:47.359
<v Speaker 1>mega millions of dollars. Could Allen Robinson go that route

0:34:47.440 --> 0:34:49.920
<v Speaker 1>or is he gonna be someone that wants a little

0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:54.080
<v Speaker 1>more sustainability and get the multi year dalah my sons.

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:56.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't know Allen Robinson, even though I just think

0:34:56.800 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 1>the I'm just prefacing by the saying at if I'm

0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:05.560
<v Speaker 1>coming out and I'm a free agent, I'm looking for fit,

0:35:06.480 --> 0:35:10.080
<v Speaker 1>guaranteed money. What's my role in offense going to be?

0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:14.040
<v Speaker 1>So if you're Allen Robinson, I don't know if Alshon

0:35:14.200 --> 0:35:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Jeffrey is gonna be a barometer for him because I

0:35:17.680 --> 0:35:22.160
<v Speaker 1>think he might have multiple suitors. I don't recall Jeffries

0:35:22.480 --> 0:35:26.279
<v Speaker 1>path and free agency so to speak, but I'm gonna

0:35:26.320 --> 0:35:29.160
<v Speaker 1>be surprised if he doesn't sign a multi year deal.

0:35:29.320 --> 0:35:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Also because like I said before, he's gonna be twenty

0:35:31.800 --> 0:35:34.799
<v Speaker 1>five years old. Jeffrey is closer to thirty. The only

0:35:34.840 --> 0:35:37.640
<v Speaker 1>negative part I mean Jeffrey bett On himself and he

0:35:37.719 --> 0:35:40.560
<v Speaker 1>won big. The other side of that is someone like

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Terrell Pryor, who had a good year in Cleveland. He

0:35:43.640 --> 0:35:47.200
<v Speaker 1>signed up with the Washington Redskins last season Kirk Cousins

0:35:47.200 --> 0:35:49.880
<v Speaker 1>as his quarterback, and he didn't he was hurt, he

0:35:49.920 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a great year, and now he's looking for

0:35:52.320 --> 0:35:54.960
<v Speaker 1>a new home again. So there's obviously two edges to

0:35:54.960 --> 0:35:58.319
<v Speaker 1>the sword. Yeah. And another receiver who was kind of

0:35:58.320 --> 0:36:00.520
<v Speaker 1>struggled last year in l A, but he got in

0:36:00.880 --> 0:36:02.759
<v Speaker 1>the end zone a number of times, as you wrote

0:36:02.800 --> 0:36:07.160
<v Speaker 1>about Ethan, was Sammy Watkins. Because I've seen him in

0:36:07.239 --> 0:36:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo take over games at times, and he is tremendous

0:36:10.840 --> 0:36:14.240
<v Speaker 1>speed and I think he can go underneath as well.

0:36:14.640 --> 0:36:16.719
<v Speaker 1>He's one to watch because I think he's only he's

0:36:16.760 --> 0:36:19.520
<v Speaker 1>only twenty four years old. I still think he's got

0:36:19.560 --> 0:36:22.719
<v Speaker 1>a high ceiling in the National Football League. But let's

0:36:22.760 --> 0:36:25.120
<v Speaker 1>go back to the cornerback position. I'm gonna switch back

0:36:25.160 --> 0:36:27.719
<v Speaker 1>to the defensive side of the ball. We'll talk about

0:36:27.760 --> 0:36:30.719
<v Speaker 1>Trueman Johnson. He's a guy who's gonna be out there

0:36:30.719 --> 0:36:34.040
<v Speaker 1>because the Rams have been so active so far in

0:36:34.280 --> 0:36:39.200
<v Speaker 1>this offseason, setting up parameters of deals to acquire not

0:36:39.239 --> 0:36:41.840
<v Speaker 1>only just Marcus Peters, but it keep delaying. What the

0:36:41.960 --> 0:36:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Rams are doing is I think rather rare in the

0:36:46.080 --> 0:36:50.440
<v Speaker 1>NFL nowadays is trading for guys and all their moves

0:36:50.480 --> 0:36:53.440
<v Speaker 1>won't become official until two days from now at the

0:36:53.560 --> 0:36:57.200
<v Speaker 1>league year, but their secondary is gonna look completely different.

0:36:57.320 --> 0:36:59.239
<v Speaker 1>And they got rid of Robert Quinn, who's now a

0:36:59.280 --> 0:37:02.120
<v Speaker 1>member of the Miami Dolphins. Could they be saving up

0:37:02.200 --> 0:37:06.239
<v Speaker 1>money and clearing room for an extension for someone like

0:37:06.320 --> 0:37:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Donald I I guess we'll find out. And remember

0:37:09.120 --> 0:37:12.480
<v Speaker 1>that Wade Phillips coached Keep to leave in Denver and

0:37:12.719 --> 0:37:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Keep to leave apparently Ian Rappaport reported this that to

0:37:15.680 --> 0:37:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Leave said he only wants to go to places New

0:37:17.800 --> 0:37:21.000
<v Speaker 1>England at l A because of way Philips. So just

0:37:21.040 --> 0:37:25.240
<v Speaker 1>sticking on the corner back position, is you mentioned Trueman Johnson.

0:37:25.640 --> 0:37:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Denard Wilson has been with him since they've been in St.

0:37:28.560 --> 0:37:30.239
<v Speaker 1>Louis together. They've been in l A as a part

0:37:30.239 --> 0:37:32.799
<v Speaker 1>of the Rams. Denard Wilson came from the Rams and

0:37:32.800 --> 0:37:35.440
<v Speaker 1>now obviously he's the defensive backs coach of the Jets.

0:37:35.440 --> 0:37:38.440
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, yeah, there's there's a tie. Well yeah, but

0:37:39.200 --> 0:37:41.839
<v Speaker 1>I'll say, is that I think people sometimes they try

0:37:41.880 --> 0:37:45.279
<v Speaker 1>to connect the dots tour. But to your point, he

0:37:45.320 --> 0:37:48.520
<v Speaker 1>knows all strength, he also knows all his weaknesses, So

0:37:49.120 --> 0:37:52.440
<v Speaker 1>we have no idea what denied Wilson. Thanks that Truemy Johnson,

0:37:52.480 --> 0:37:55.200
<v Speaker 1>we should say that Truemaine Johnson played very well under Dar.

0:37:55.719 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that. Trueman Johnson in his six year

0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:03.479
<v Speaker 1>career has sixty seven past defenses and eighteen interceptions. He's

0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:06.960
<v Speaker 1>someone that has quietly gotten the franchise tag two years

0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 1>in a row, similar to someone like Kirk Cousins. So

0:38:09.160 --> 0:38:11.200
<v Speaker 1>he's made a lot of money the past two years

0:38:11.200 --> 0:38:13.439
<v Speaker 1>and this is the time that he's finally able to

0:38:13.480 --> 0:38:16.719
<v Speaker 1>test the market. Someone that's i'd say a tear below him,

0:38:16.719 --> 0:38:18.799
<v Speaker 1>maybe a little bit of a small ticket guy is

0:38:19.160 --> 0:38:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Redskins corner Bashad Brelan. Four years. He's been starting for

0:38:22.880 --> 0:38:25.520
<v Speaker 1>the Washington Redskins since he's been drafted out of Clemson.

0:38:25.840 --> 0:38:28.759
<v Speaker 1>He has sixty pass defenses, so he's very active. I've

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:30.840
<v Speaker 1>only watched him playing a couple of times. But maybe

0:38:31.120 --> 0:38:32.920
<v Speaker 1>someone like that, who is a lesser name on the

0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:36.680
<v Speaker 1>market could be someone that Mike mccagnen wants to address

0:38:36.760 --> 0:38:39.400
<v Speaker 1>in free agency. Rap report did tell us that he

0:38:39.440 --> 0:38:41.879
<v Speaker 1>would not be surprised at off Claiborne landed back here

0:38:41.880 --> 0:38:44.040
<v Speaker 1>with the test. He told both of us on numerous

0:38:44.080 --> 0:38:47.040
<v Speaker 1>occasions that he loved it here. He thought he played

0:38:47.080 --> 0:38:51.560
<v Speaker 1>his best professional ball here. He really liked Stannard Wilson.

0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:55.879
<v Speaker 1>He's fond Todd Bowls you talk about Morris Clayborne wanted

0:38:55.920 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 1>to be a member of the Jets long term. He said, quote,

0:38:59.400 --> 0:39:01.200
<v Speaker 1>why would I want to pack up and leave when

0:39:01.239 --> 0:39:03.880
<v Speaker 1>everything I want is right here. Someone else that's very

0:39:03.960 --> 0:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>vocal about his desire to stay here is Austin Safarian Jenkins.

0:39:07.440 --> 0:39:10.040
<v Speaker 1>He loves New York City. He's told me he actually

0:39:10.040 --> 0:39:12.320
<v Speaker 1>just likes going to the city and people watching, no headphones,

0:39:12.400 --> 0:39:15.200
<v Speaker 1>just looking around. That's regardless. He had a career year

0:39:15.280 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 1>last year. He rededicated himself. He became what he described

0:39:20.160 --> 0:39:22.839
<v Speaker 1>as a rookie because this was the first year to him,

0:39:22.880 --> 0:39:26.360
<v Speaker 1>in his words, that he was truly focused and dedicated

0:39:26.600 --> 0:39:29.600
<v Speaker 1>to the game, and he refounded his love for the game.

0:39:29.640 --> 0:39:32.120
<v Speaker 1>But if the Jets decide to go elsewhere, there's a

0:39:32.160 --> 0:39:35.120
<v Speaker 1>couple of guys too, you know we should match it too.

0:39:35.719 --> 0:39:37.279
<v Speaker 1>And I know it doesn't get a lot of pub

0:39:37.360 --> 0:39:39.920
<v Speaker 1>right now, but Wesley Johnson's restricted free agent. He did

0:39:39.960 --> 0:39:43.760
<v Speaker 1>a nice job after taking over from Nick Mangol. Jonathan

0:39:43.760 --> 0:39:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Harrison also his backup what restricted free agents, so the

0:39:46.760 --> 0:39:50.280
<v Speaker 1>Jets could be here Wednesday without a really true center

0:39:50.280 --> 0:39:53.800
<v Speaker 1>on the roster. Uh Dakota Dozer is a guy who's

0:39:53.840 --> 0:39:56.640
<v Speaker 1>worked inside at both guard and center, but he's not

0:39:56.719 --> 0:39:59.880
<v Speaker 1>restrict to free agent too, so the center position is

0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:03.439
<v Speaker 1>an area we have to watch as well. The guy

0:40:03.719 --> 0:40:08.279
<v Speaker 1>who's getting the most buzz in media circles right now

0:40:08.960 --> 0:40:11.960
<v Speaker 1>is a young player for the Baltimore Ravens who made

0:40:11.960 --> 0:40:14.480
<v Speaker 1>a name for himself last year, Ryan Jensen. And not

0:40:14.560 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 1>only that, but he's a guy that again you don't

0:40:17.200 --> 0:40:20.080
<v Speaker 1>know because he had one year at center he succeeded,

0:40:20.440 --> 0:40:22.440
<v Speaker 1>So what's the market for him gonna look like if

0:40:22.440 --> 0:40:26.280
<v Speaker 1>you're looking at other players? Weston Richburg of the Crosstown Giants,

0:40:26.320 --> 0:40:28.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a great point. Was hurt for the majority of

0:40:28.600 --> 0:40:32.360
<v Speaker 1>last year, but before that he was playing at a

0:40:32.440 --> 0:40:36.399
<v Speaker 1>high level. Spencer Long the Redskins Center. He's another name

0:40:36.440 --> 0:40:39.000
<v Speaker 1>that a lot of people are talking about. And not

0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:42.760
<v Speaker 1>only that, but the older gentleman for the Los Angeles

0:40:42.880 --> 0:40:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Rams John Sullivan. So there are a lot of options

0:40:45.640 --> 0:40:48.359
<v Speaker 1>there if the Jets decide to go elsewhere. So much

0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:51.359
<v Speaker 1>to be decided. And that finally, we gotta talk about

0:40:51.400 --> 0:40:56.879
<v Speaker 1>Josh McConnell just real quickly. McCown ultimate professional career year

0:40:57.239 --> 0:41:00.840
<v Speaker 1>under the Jets quarterbacks coach Jeremy Bates. Well, Jeremy Bates

0:41:00.880 --> 0:41:05.319
<v Speaker 1>is now the offensive play caller. Tremendous respect between those

0:41:05.320 --> 0:41:08.560
<v Speaker 1>two guys. Remember they not only worked here last year

0:41:09.000 --> 0:41:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and had success, but they did some good things as

0:41:12.239 --> 0:41:15.560
<v Speaker 1>McCown was the backup to Jake Cutler in Chicago, so

0:41:15.640 --> 0:41:20.080
<v Speaker 1>their relationship goes back a long ways. So when the

0:41:20.160 --> 0:41:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Jets say they have multiple options to the quarterback position,

0:41:23.160 --> 0:41:26.759
<v Speaker 1>obviously that's the main headline moving forward here in free

0:41:26.760 --> 0:41:29.640
<v Speaker 1>agency and in the draft. One of those options could

0:41:29.680 --> 0:41:32.439
<v Speaker 1>be Josh McCown. So I don't want people at home

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.240
<v Speaker 1>to say, well, Josh McCown, that would be a bad option,

0:41:35.239 --> 0:41:38.239
<v Speaker 1>because Josh McCown hit a career year last year. He's

0:41:38.280 --> 0:41:41.719
<v Speaker 1>also expressed to a number of external media outlets that

0:41:41.840 --> 0:41:46.160
<v Speaker 1>he would be comfortable mentoring a young quarterback here. So

0:41:46.280 --> 0:41:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the Jets could go that option of McCown and drafting one,

0:41:51.360 --> 0:41:54.719
<v Speaker 1>adding them to the already two quarterbacks they have on

0:41:54.719 --> 0:41:58.359
<v Speaker 1>the roster and Petty. I totally agree with you. I

0:41:58.400 --> 0:42:01.839
<v Speaker 1>think that whatever plans A and B are, let's say

0:42:01.840 --> 0:42:04.120
<v Speaker 1>one is through free agency and once through the draft.

0:42:04.360 --> 0:42:08.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that the drop off in talent are

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:10.279
<v Speaker 1>that different. Because let's say the Jets go out and

0:42:10.320 --> 0:42:13.000
<v Speaker 1>free agency, they get their quarterback. All right, that's great

0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:15.680
<v Speaker 1>now that you can focus on other positions in the draft.

0:42:16.000 --> 0:42:18.640
<v Speaker 1>On the flip side, you sign McCown, who, like you said,

0:42:18.680 --> 0:42:21.720
<v Speaker 1>had a career year last year. You add pieces around

0:42:22.000 --> 0:42:24.120
<v Speaker 1>the offense and the defense, and then all of a sudden,

0:42:24.120 --> 0:42:26.319
<v Speaker 1>like Matt Miller said, maybe at six, if you make

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:28.239
<v Speaker 1>a trade up in the draft, you get your guy.

0:42:28.680 --> 0:42:31.319
<v Speaker 1>Now you have McCown, who you know it will be

0:42:31.360 --> 0:42:33.680
<v Speaker 1>a good mentor to whoever walks in the door as

0:42:33.680 --> 0:42:36.719
<v Speaker 1>a rookie. And I don't think that either is a

0:42:36.760 --> 0:42:40.440
<v Speaker 1>bad option. It's just two different methods, two different approaches

0:42:40.719 --> 0:42:42.600
<v Speaker 1>of how to get your guy for the long term.

0:42:42.680 --> 0:42:47.160
<v Speaker 1>So it'll be very interestings about the fall. It's gonna

0:42:47.160 --> 0:42:49.600
<v Speaker 1>be a fun week. Let the madness begin.
