Right, it's a nice day, Steve Huff. 6 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: I think it's sunnier in eastern or than any place else. 7 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: I don't know. I want to go. I'll take my 8 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: I'll take my act outside if you want. You do, 9 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: think go on like this for a while this summer. 10 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: Who knows that we will. I'll start doing the show outside, 11 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: won't you. It's a good thought. Yeah, it's a really 12 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: good thought. I mean, I think he'll put us in 13 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: a different frame of mind to be outside. Nobody will 14 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: care accept us. Yeah, no, y'all have birds on the 15 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: background and you know that kind of thing. You'll be cool. 16 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: I got a spot picked out right now as I 17 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: look outside my window here, that'd be a good idea. Yeah, 18 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: it's forty two degrees today, probably a little chili today, 19 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: but it's a nice sundayday here in what you're parking. 20 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure it is in east of our arm. It is. 21 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 1: We're our producer, Jay Harris Is. We're coming down on 22 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: the radio only again today. We'll be doing that all week. 23 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 1: It's a big week with the NFL Draft coming up Thursday, Friday, Saturday. 24 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: Round one Thursday, Bills do not have a pick in 25 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: round one, rounds two and three. Friday, the Bills have 26 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: a pick in the second, a pick in the third, 27 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: and then the rest of the draft on Saturday, rounds 28 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: fourth through seven. Steve, we should let folks know that 29 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: we got a special we got a special broadcast of 30 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: one Bills. I've coming up Friday night when the Bills 31 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: pick nothing Thursday, but Friday night, we'll be on their 32 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: seven pm until until business is completed for the Buffalo Bills. Right, 33 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: they got the pick. They got the fifty fourth pick 34 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: of the draft, and you and I have both speculated 35 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: they maybe they'll move up. How much, who knows. But 36 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: if they're at fifty fourth pick and the draft, that's 37 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: a twenty second pick in the second round, and there's 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: seven minutes per pick. If every team takes all their 39 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: time and there's no glitches, that means it about about 40 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: nine thirty. The Bills will make their draft pick about 41 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 1: one hundred or two hours and what twenty four minutes 42 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: into at two hours and thirty four minutes into the 43 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: into the night. So how do you think it gonna 44 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,399 Speaker 1: be a long night? I don't either. I don't either. 45 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: I think it will happen faster. I do too. I 46 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: think in teams, the more the draft goes along, they 47 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: have less time and they use less time typically right 48 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: second round even I think the Bills will be ready 49 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: to go about eight thirty or so. But we'll find out. 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: I mean, we're not going anywhere. What do we what 51 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: do weekend? Yeah, once you get right, once you get 52 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: deep into the second round and certainly into the third round, 53 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,359 Speaker 1: there's less angst about a team picking the guy you're 54 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: looking at. Uh, you know, so because other teams have 55 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, filled a need or they pick a different player. Uh, 56 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: they're just not that same knowledge about exactly what other 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: teams are going to do in the later rounds. So 58 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: they don't have that a bit that that desire to 59 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: move up or move down or make some phone calls 60 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: to see if they want to trade out, because other 61 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: teams aren't really as you know, desires to grab those 62 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: picks away from a team as they are up in 63 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: the top of the first or the middle of the first, 64 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: so the draft usually goes off. There's fewer trades in 65 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: the second round, and there you know, all those second 66 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: round draft picks get traded for the first rounders of 67 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 1: next year, you know what I'm saying. So that's all 68 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: done by that time, and teams start clicking those picks 69 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: off a little faster hopefully. So that'll be Friday night. 70 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: As we said, we got a show on the air 71 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: on our flagship in Buffalo, WGR Radio Sports Radio five 72 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: fifty seven pm Friday night. We don't know when the 73 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: Bills will pick, what time it'll be, but right now 74 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: they schedually have the fifty fourth and then the eighty 75 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: sixth pick on Friday night. Rounds two and three also 76 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: going on Friday, and this is league wide. The NFL 77 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: has plans for a drafteth on live stream hosted by 78 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: Rich Eyesing and Beyond Sanders. Drafteth On a massive fundraising 79 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: campaign to raise money for COVID nineteen relief efforts. The 80 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: Draft of Ton will be streamed on NFL social and 81 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: digital platforms, featured in live draft coverage one on TV ABC, 82 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: ESPN NFL Network donations will be available. There'll be a 83 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: text to donate option. You can follow draft to THN 84 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: and NFL digital properties all weekend long. So that'd be fun. 85 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: A wide variety of athletes celebrities in person at least, 86 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: did you I don't know if you read Peter King 87 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: today his football Morning in America, Steve he talked to. 88 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: He talked a lot about the draft. He as a 89 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: mock draft up there for the first round. He had 90 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: a conversation with the commissioner Goodell about, you know what, 91 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: what his role is going to be in the first round. 92 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see what Goodell does from his 93 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: basement announcing those picks. There's actually they'll get a kick 94 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: out of this. There's a you can bet in Las 95 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: Vegas if Goodell if he will wear a suit or 96 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: not in his own basement. You can bet yeah, I 97 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: think I'll wear a suit, or you can say no, 98 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he will. I would say probably. He 99 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't tell Peter King. I would bet the he's not 100 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 1: gonna wear a suit. I think he's gonna want to 101 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: be casual. What do you think? You know what I 102 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: was I thought about this. I think it would be 103 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: for me, sport coat, open collar shirt, right, no tie? 104 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: Is that how usually dress when you go in your basement? Well, 105 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: when you're on Yeah, we'll look at me today. I 106 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: got a little open collar quarter zip with a with 107 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: a dress shirt underneath it. So yeah, I mean, you know, 108 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, he's not gonna be in it. He's 109 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: not gonna be in a sweater, right, Maybe I don't know. 110 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: He can do whatever he wants. He's in his basement. 111 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: There's also and Peter King writes about this. Their speculation 112 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: is to whether they will pipe in booing fans booing 113 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: or whether you know they do have camera set up 114 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: with different fan bases. I assume they're gonna do one 115 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: in Buffalo, and maybe those fans when they're picked and 116 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: when Goodell steps to the podium get get a chance 117 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: to boo the commissioner, or maybe they do, you know, 118 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: they pipe it in some sort of recorded booing. I 119 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: don't know how old the commissioner's kids are. Maybe he 120 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: gets his kids sitting there in the basement to boo 121 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: him every time he steps up to make a pick. 122 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: What do you think? Yeah, that's that's where gambling goes 123 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: off the rails. For me. Yeah, but it's good. Peter 124 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: King's piece today Football Morning in America is pretty good 125 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: and just kind of he has a mock draft, which 126 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: I don't pay too much attention to, but uh, he 127 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: has just kind of the the things that are going 128 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: to go on Thursday, especially Thursday night round one. It'll 129 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: be a different draft, no question about that. And you know, 130 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: it was good to hear King wrote about it, and 131 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: Goodell talked about it to Peter King kind of the 132 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: same way we talked to Brandon Bean last week when 133 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Bean was honest about Yeah, it's different and it's 134 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: a little uh, the draft will be a little bit 135 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: uncomfortable for some and a lot more technology at stake. 136 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: But I think they're all up to it. I think 137 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: everybody's up to the challenge, and I think everybody wants it. 138 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: And as Commissioner said, the country probably needs this, you know, 139 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: not a diversion. Yes, sports entertainment. Yes, there hasn't meant 140 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: much of that lately. It'll probably be a good thing. 141 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: With maybe record high TV ratings. Somebody wrote that people 142 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 1: are watching On average, Americans watch about one or more 143 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: of television per day, and if that's the case, those 144 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: draft ratings for the the only real sports to take 145 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: place in real time over the last five weeks. They 146 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: could be they could be monstrous ratings on Friday on Thursday. Rather, yeah, 147 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: I could and I anticipated that it will be Murphy. 148 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: How could you not watch it? I mean, and I 149 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: know you watched this last night. I missed it. But 150 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: the last chapter the Chicago Bulls, it's a new ten 151 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: part mini series about the Bulls last run to you 152 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: know in there and when Michael Jordan's run and you know, 153 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: just you know that I think was you know, it 154 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: was really widely watched, so people are kind of thirsty 155 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: for anything fresh, you know. Ye, the Last Dance. It's 156 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: about the ninety seven ninety eight Chicago Bulls season. Um, 157 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: and they had the first part last night. You didn't 158 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: see It's even because I didn't. But here I was 159 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: watching a different movie, you know, I was getting ready 160 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: to watch that. And I never saw these last season. 161 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: I know they were up last football season. But Peyton's 162 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: places his Uh, yes, they had a couple of those 163 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: on ESPN prior to the Last Dance last night. Those 164 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: are really good. There's a really good dad. He and 165 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady talking Peyton was interviewing Tom Brady just one 166 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: on one in the in the side yard of Jim 167 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: Nance's home somewhere out in California, chipping balls on on 168 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: to a little golf green. It was really funny. And 169 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: then they went to Peyton met with who's the guy 170 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: that dub Bears? You know? Is that George Went the 171 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: former acts from Yeah from George Yeah from Cheers and 172 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: his partner and they dressed up in character and uh, 173 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: basically it was a historical look at the Chicago Bears 174 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: and what that franchise means to the city of Chicago. 175 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: Peyton was great. He went to Wrigley Field, talked to 176 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: Joe Madden, the Cubs manager, and one of the one 177 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: of the Cubs Bryant, their pitcher, because the Bears used 178 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: to play at Wrigley Field. And then he went to 179 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: the Soldier Field and had the big plate of food 180 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: with the George Went and the other guy and they 181 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: talked about dub Bears and Dick and it was really good. 182 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: It was a really good and I hadn't seen that 183 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: last season. I'm usually busy on Sundays during football season, 184 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: but it was Peyton places. And then they got to 185 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: the last dance of Michael Jordan Joe and I gotta say, 186 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: and it's good. It is really well produced, and it'll 187 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: be good. I'll watched probably more episodes. But first of all, 188 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: I never saw Michael Jordan play live, which remains, you know, 189 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: a regret of mine. I mean, I consider myself, did 190 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: you ever see him play live anywhere? U? I did not? 191 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: I didn't know. I mean, I can started myself a 192 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: pretty good basketball fan. I've never saw Michael Jordan play 193 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: number two. I'd watched obviously his whole career on TV. 194 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: And look, I know, you know, I've told you I 195 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: think Steph Curry is the greatest shooter of all time, 196 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: and Lebron James is a great, great player in the 197 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: physical force. And there are others you know called Leonard. 198 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: Last year, I had a great year. There was nobody, 199 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: nobody comparable to Michael Jordan at his peak. Absolutely nobody 200 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: was as dynamic a performer. Um he was you know, 201 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: fifty sent physical ability and forty percent smarts. I mean, 202 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: and and actually let me rephrase it at thirty percent 203 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: smarts and twenty percent drive and competitiveness. I mean, Michael 204 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: Jordan was. He was by far the best basketball player 205 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: of all time, and that came through in that piece 206 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: last night. Yeah, I think the thing that set him 207 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: apart was his his drive to be great, his work ath. 208 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: He worked really hard. I remember the stories around Chicago 209 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: of him getting Scottie Pippen and and all those guys 210 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: to come to his house, into his own gymnasium in 211 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: the offseason. They showed up every morning and he was 212 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: grinding away with those guys all the time. And there 213 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: was some stuff about when he first got to the 214 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: Bulls in the eighties, you know, it's a little bit 215 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: of a a little bit of a party atmosphere, you know. 216 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: I say, you know, let's let's uh, let's your party 217 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: and we'll do the stuff and we'll play hoops on 218 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: his side, and he was not like that. He was like, listen, 219 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: we'll we'll have we'll socialize and all that, but you know, 220 00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: we'll play cards and stuff. We're not gonna do all 221 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: that other thing, you know, And we're grinding it now. 222 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna win basketball games. And if you're gonna be 223 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: on this team, it's not about taking advantage of all 224 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: the fame and fortune. It's gonna be about winning basketball games, 225 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: and that's that was a paradigm shift for that franchise, 226 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: And no question, it took him a long time to 227 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: get there. He played a long time before they won 228 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: a championship, and it took him a long time to 229 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: grow into molding the team that he wanted it to be. 230 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: And he got helped obviously Phil Jackson. When he first 231 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: got there, it was Collins that was a head coach, 232 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: and uh yeah, the evolution that he went there was 233 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: a different time too in America and in the NBA. 234 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: It took him a while to get that team sculpted 235 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: the way they wanted it, and they had some really 236 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,599 Speaker 1: good teams in that era they had to contend with, 237 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 1: so it was it's pretty telling. I can't wait to 238 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: see the episodes. Yeah, it's good. Michael talked about that too. 239 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: He did an extensive entry for the piece and talked 240 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: about as a rookie nineteen eighty four, early on going 241 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: into some of these hell room, knocks on the door 242 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: and guys are in one corner doing cocaine, and there's 243 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: another group smoking pot and another group drinking, and he 244 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: kind of walked out and said, that's not that's not 245 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna do it. And it only took about him, 246 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: I want to say, three or four weeks for him 247 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: to establish himself as Number one, the best player on 248 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: that Bulls roster, a number two, the dominant force, the 249 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: lead dog on that Bulls roster. It only took him 250 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: maybe three or four weeks in his rookie year. And 251 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: you're right. They didn't go deep in the playoffs. They 252 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: had a playoff series against the Celtics where basically it 253 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 1: was Michael against you know, the Celtics with Robert Parris 254 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: and Kevin McHale and Larry Bird and those guys, and 255 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: the Celtics won. But it was clear that stuff was 256 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: changing in Chicago. It was a good piece last night. 257 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: But I mean, I guess I took it for granted. 258 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Michael Jordan maybe the best player. No, he 259 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: was the best player and the best player of all time. 260 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I saw Jerry West play, I saw Oscar 261 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: Robertson play, great players. Lebron James is spectacular and a 262 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: force to be reckoned with. But Michael Jordan was by far, 263 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: by far, the greatest player in basketball history, really was, 264 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: And I don't know what was he doing now? I 265 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: don't know. I think he gambles and golfs everything there is, 266 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, I think there's no question. I mean, you've, um, 267 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: there's certainly been other great players and certainly been guys 268 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: who and who knows if you know, if you get 269 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: those guys out there and one on one, who would 270 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: come away with a win or who would you know 271 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: what I mean? Because you can. But they're also and 272 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say by far he was, but certainly 273 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: the conversation starts with him and I and I think 274 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: it's you have to use different criteria to measure the 275 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 1: greatest guys in the sport because of the vastly changing 276 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: era in which they played. He played in a very 277 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: different era than Lebron James, and it's the game was 278 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: very different. Those teams were built differently. I mean, you know, now, Murph, 279 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,599 Speaker 1: these guys two sides every offseason and switch teams and 280 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: I'll say, let's go see if you can win one here. 281 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: You know, Um, it's a vastly different atmosphere than it 282 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: was back then. So I think it's hard to compete, 283 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: you know. I think it's fun to think about, but 284 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: it's really difficult to get an accurate comparison between Michael 285 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: and Lebron and Kobe and you know, even Bird and 286 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: Magic Wilt Chamberlain. I grew up watching Wilt Chamberlain only 287 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 1: on TV. Of course, Uh, dominant players, lou Al sender, 288 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: it's interesting too. But I got a question if we're 289 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: to let me just say, before you moved this off, 290 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: move off this. I hear what you're saying, and maybe 291 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: before I watched that show yesterday, I might have agreed 292 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: with you. But I'm telling you there's no comparison. Michael 293 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: Jordan was the greatest, Nobody's Nobody's that close. It would 294 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: be fun, it'd be fun. You're like a dream team 295 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: in ninety four I guess it was, or what was 296 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: it ninety or ninety four where they had Jordan and 297 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: Bird and all those guys in the Olympic Games. Right. 298 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: If you think about it, if you took that dream 299 00:14:53,800 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: team and gave somebody else the field, all the other teams, 300 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: all the other players in the league history, could you 301 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: beat that team? I think you could. Yeah, I don't know. 302 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: I think he could because the other team would have 303 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: like Shack and Kobe and Lebron for three top ones 304 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: and you get you know, and i'd be fun. That 305 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: would be a fun team. Yeah, I'd have Yeah, I'd 306 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: have Duncan on it, Tim Duncan. Duncan was on that team, 307 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: So it'd be uh, I mean you get Wilt and yeah, 308 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: you'd have some guys, Yeah, some fun what a great 309 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: everybody at the time. That would Oscar Robertson. Yeah, the 310 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: only guy in history to average a triple double for 311 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: a season. Yeah, there's some guys. It'd be fun. That's 312 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: fun to think about it. But yeah, the Jordan thing 313 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: last night, I can't wait to see I missed last night. 314 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: I was the opening segment. It was two segments, right, 315 00:15:54,840 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: I don't together, there's a I gotta go back and 316 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: watch it. Then did you ever and again, I don't 317 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: want to dwell on this, but did you're watching any 318 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: of those peyton Peyton's places? Yes, really good. So at ease. 319 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: He's so self and great degrading. You know, if self, 320 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: if ethics, um face, decorate, decorate, hold on, hold me, 321 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: I'll get it. I'll get hold on deprecating, self deprecating 322 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: and and plus he also laughingly seeks compliments for himself too, 323 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: so he does it both ways. Right. He jokingly makes 324 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: fun of himself and at the same time UH talks, 325 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: you know, makes outlandish claims about himself too, So he's hilarious. 326 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: He's got a great sense of humor. He carries the 327 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: program really well. It's well produced. UM. He has great 328 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: guests who are also UM portrayed really favorably. So it's 329 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: a lot of fun to watch those things. And he 330 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: does give you a little lesson in history and UH 331 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: and some of the stuff that's happened, some of the 332 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: milestones that were like last night with the computers and 333 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys and how they were ten years ahead 334 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: of everybody who was using computers at the time, and 335 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 1: there was a twenty years span where they never had 336 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: a losing season. That's pretty remarkable. Anyway, we're going to 337 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: talk football today. We're on the air until three. We've 338 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: got a couple of good guests, I mean Chris Brown, 339 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills insider Chris Brown from Buffalo Bills dot com. 340 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: We'll join us at one o'clock today as the start 341 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 1: of the Bills offseason conditioning program. Chris, we'll talk about that. 342 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that in a moment or two. Chris 343 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: Brown at one coming up at two, Tony Pauline, Pro 344 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: Football Network Draft analysts. We are three days away now 345 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: from around one of the draft. I want to talk 346 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: to Tony about you know, the Bills aren't in it, 347 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 1: but there's a lot going on with the first round 348 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: to the draft, a lot of it dealing with quarterbacks 349 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: and obviously to a Tego Biola's hip injury. How much 350 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: of it that appears to have gonna have a big 351 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: impact on where he goes in the draft. And there's 352 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 1: more intrigue than just quarterbacks too. But yeah, we know 353 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: the Bills aren't involved in the round one now and 354 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: I don't think they will be, but there's enough going 355 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: on to make that an interesting the discussion I think 356 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: with Tony Pauline too. Steve, Yeah, I can't wait to 357 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 1: get brownies in take about what he thinks might happen 358 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: to the Bills at if they do indeed pick at 359 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: fifty four. Are you still today, Murph? I know the 360 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: weekend is past. Yeah, I'm still convinced they're going to 361 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: trade up. N Yeah, pretty convinced. I have a hunch. 362 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm pretty convinced they'll they'll move up Um And I 363 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 1: actually spent some time looking at some of the offense 364 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: and this is just me, just my hunch. Looking look, 365 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a wide receiver or an offensive tackle 366 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: that they'd be interested in getting. There's a lot of 367 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: good offensive tackles in this draft. Some of them might 368 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: be some of them might go unclaimed in the first round, 369 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: which would you know, obviously be of interest to the Bills. 370 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: I think, OK, if you could bring in an offensive guy, 371 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: offensive tackle to play the left side or the right side, 372 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: really you could if you put him on the left side, 373 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: if he's a true left tackle, then you, uh, you 374 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: move Dion Dawkins to the other side. Maybe. I just 375 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: I just think I think they like the flexib bill 376 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 1: they have right now on the offensive line, and I 377 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: think they might get a little bit more from the draft. 378 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: I think if there's a good one. Look, there's three guys, 379 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: let me, Yeah, three tackles will probably go first round. 380 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: Tristan Wills Iowa, Andrew Thomas Georgia, Yeah, Worf's and Mecdi 381 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: Beckton of Louisville. They're probably gone in the first round. 382 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: But what about guys like Ezra Cleveland, Boise State, Austin Jackson, 383 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,959 Speaker 1: Southern cow Matt Perk, Connecticut. These are guys who are 384 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: good tackle prospects, who should be available after the first round. 385 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: And I think the Bills. I know people say running back. 386 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: I just don't see it. I don't think that's a 387 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: I saw something in the Buffalo News that said they 388 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: have a crying need at running back, and I thought, no, 389 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: they don't nothing. Don't they need a complimentary back to 390 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: uh the Devin singletary. I don't know. That's just me, Steve. 391 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: You may feel differently. There is no such thing as 392 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: a crying need in the NFL for a running back. 393 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: You can get. Think about the guys that the Houston 394 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: Texas just least, you know they've got, um, you've got 395 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: thousand yard rushers waiting for a job right now. So 396 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,360 Speaker 1: you know, you just pick up the phone and that's 397 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: a need that is done, that's filled, right, So, uh, yeah, 398 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: there are Here's the thing, Murk, there are too many 399 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: running backs for as many spots as there are in 400 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: the NFL quality guys that can carry the ball, and 401 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: the value of that spot on an offense because there's 402 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: so many guys is de value. So you can find 403 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: a guy that's good enough crying needs. We would like 404 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,160 Speaker 1: to see him sign a guy. But that's not it's 405 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: not even urgent. Mark Gon wrote it, and I just 406 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: I love Mark. I disagree with him. He writes, and 407 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: they're answering questions. He says, the Bills need for a 408 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: running back is glaring. I don't think it's glaring. I mean, yeah, 409 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: it'd be nice to get one. I don't think it's 410 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: not a He didn't write crying need, he wrote, glarion 411 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 1: is a glaring I don't know. I think that's the one. Well. 412 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: I think that's the one place where you know they're 413 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: gonna sign somebody and they haven't. That's all you know 414 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna sign another running back. Yes, but but that's it. 415 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: That's the reason it's glaring. That's the one spot where 416 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: you think, Man, we can't go to training camp with 417 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: Devin Singletary and t J. Eldon. I don't increase away. 418 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: You don't go into the draft thinking we gotta get 419 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: a running back with our first patrol. I don't draft one. Yeah, 420 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: I wouldn't draft one. I maybe, I mean if in 421 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: the fourth or fifth round, maybe, I don't know. But 422 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: if he's got measurables, so yeah, I am not panicked 423 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: at all about not having a running back on the roster. 424 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: But I do believe they will have another one on 425 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: the roster by the time training camp starts, and he'll 426 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: be slotted at the number two behind Devin Singletary. You 427 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: know what else is not glaring. It's too easy a 428 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 1: position to fill. That's all right. They do not have 429 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: a glaring need for a wide receiver either. However, if 430 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: there's one of those good ones, and there probably will 431 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: be that snuck out of the first round to sitting 432 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: there Friday, available to the Bills, I wouldn't see, I 433 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't look. I wouldn't think twice about making a move 434 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: up to get the one of those good wide receivers, 435 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: for instance, Chase Claypool. He may not he may not 436 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: get selected in the first round. They may be able 437 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: to get him in the secon round. I'd be okay 438 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: with that. Steve, Yeah, of course I would too. I 439 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: would be more thoughtful just because he's older. Is is cool, Beasley. 440 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: He's gonna turn thirty two, thirty one in a couple 441 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: of weeks. He'll be thirty two before you start, you know, 442 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: so as a slot receiver, maybe you get a young 443 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: player to sit back and watch him on the practice 444 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: squad for a year, maybe two or one and a 445 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: half anyway, and see how he does it. A kid 446 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: with some abilities to do that. But I certainly you 447 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: don't need to pick anybody at that spot who you 448 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: need to play right away. I think it's such a 449 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: wide receiver rich raft that I'd be opened to. By 450 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: the way, Beasley turns thirty one this next weekend, next Sunday, 451 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: I believe, But there's so many good white receivers in 452 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: this draft. I'd be open to moving up and get 453 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: one in the second round, and yeah, use them as 454 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: a developmental type guy. I think I'd be on board 455 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: with it. All Right, So now we're talking about the draft, 456 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: and we know the Bills. We're going to talk about 457 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 1: the draft with Tony Pauline a little bit with Chris 458 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: Brown as well. We know the Bill's first pick is 459 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: fifty fourth second round pick. But we dive into a 460 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: little bit of history today and for our Twitter poll, 461 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: who was the Bill's best second round draft pick since 462 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: two thousand will limit it to the last twenty years. 463 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 1: Who is the Bill's best second round draft pick since 464 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,719 Speaker 1: the year two thousand.

Our Twitter poll today asked 500 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: the question who was the Bill's best second round pick 501 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: in the last twenty years and why you can give 502 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: us a call?

Two thousand? 509 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 1: Right now? Aaron Schobel gets forty eight percent of the vote, 510 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: almost half the votes. That's interesting. Robert Woods gets twenty 511 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: five percent of the vote. Aaron Williams gots twenty one 512 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: percent of the vote, and six percent go for somebody else. 513 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: Let's let's hear from you. If you got somebody else, 514 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: or if you want one of those three, give us 515 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: a call at eight O three fifty untill three one 516 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: eight eight eight five fifty two five fifty. Who do 517 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: you like, Steve? Who's the bills second round best? Second 518 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: round picksins? Two thousand? Yeah, it's interesting. I would probably 519 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: say a guy like Aaron Schobel. He was probably had 520 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: his productive a career and longevity wise as well. He 521 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: played only for the Buffalo Bills, played for a long 522 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: time and unfortunately, as we all remember, played for a 523 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: time when the Bills were irrelevant in the National Football League, 524 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: and I think that's that's a strike against him league wide. 525 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: But I think within Buffalo, the years he put in 526 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: we're probably his productive and as consistent as anybody on 527 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: the list. There's a boy I got a lot of 528 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: good names. I mean Aaron Williams getting twenty one percent 529 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: of the vote. His career was cut short by a 530 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: cheap shot hit. Let's face it, I think he would 531 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: have had Pro Bowls. He'd be making Pro Bowls right 532 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: now and be a solid member of the Bill secondary 533 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: had he not been heard, He'd be an easy one 534 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: to pick. I think Robert woods is as a solid player, 535 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: a really good player in the NFL, A good wide receiver. Undersized, yes, 536 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: but a guy who can make plays and is kind 537 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: of a knack for making big plays. I think Jaris 538 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: Bird had a spectacular start to his career in Buffalo. 539 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: I think he was a good, good second round player. 540 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: Of puzz Lasni played a lot in the league, So 541 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,239 Speaker 1: there are there are candidates. Paul Puzzlozny'd be one of them, 542 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: and looking down the list, Chris Kelsey at a good 543 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: NFL career, there are candidates. I think but I'm want 544 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: to hear from you because that that's the caliber of 545 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: player that you will get from a second round pick typically, right, 546 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: some guys who have really good NFL careers, and if 547 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: you pick them wrong, some guys who you know, wash 548 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: out pretty quickly. That's I think one of the things 549 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: about it is I'm picking these as I'm limiting them 550 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 1: to the Bill's career that they had. Certainly there are 551 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: guys that went out like Paul puzz Lesni played for 552 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: a lot of years, had one contract with the Bills, 553 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: went and had a nice career with Jacksonville after he 554 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: left here. Jaris Bird played a long time in New 555 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,719 Speaker 1: Orleans after he left Buffalo, was only in Buffalo for 556 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: four years. Aaron Williams, of course his career was cut short, 557 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: like he said, Murph, but he was an outstanding safety. 558 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: So yeah, there's there's a lot of reasons why a 559 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: lot of guys on this list, some of them not 560 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 1: so good and others who were good players for a 561 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: long time. And that's uh, I guess that's something all 562 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, we can go to the tweet sheet and 563 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: ask people what they think about these second round picks. 564 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: They you know, but for me. I kind of stick 565 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: to what they did as a Buffalo Bill because this 566 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: is the team that picked him. I got cha.

It'll be great. 626 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: And I think it's one of the great positives to 627 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: come out of this pandemic that we're all kind of 628 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: hunkered down in the midst of some of the Brandon 629 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: being experiences.

The rest of 638 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: the team start in a week three straight weeks. It 639 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: includes classroom instruction, workouts, and non football educational programs that 640 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: use video conferencing. Of the dozen teams who chose to 641 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: begin their virtual period today, three of them, including the Bills, 642 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 1: they're scheduled to have workouts. According to NFL Network. We 643 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: talked with Matt Barkley last week and he said the 644 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: Bills are going to have a team meeting, probably already 645 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: had one actually, although the timing makes it difficult for 646 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: guys out west, but expected to hold a virtual team 647 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: meeting by a teleconference today. Instructions for players and how 648 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: it's all gonna work. So it's going, Steve, and I 649 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: think that's good. It's good right that the offseason program 650 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: is going for the Bills, and but it doesn't other 651 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: team starting today. That's fascinating to me. I mean, how 652 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: is it kind of most of it would be instructions 653 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: on you know, how to use the equipment. They probably 654 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: sent them all eye watches so that they can put 655 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: those on and and teach them how to link it 656 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: up and send if if they have to just send 657 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: the data back to the Bills and to uh Eric 658 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: Siano all of those guys. It's really fascinating to think 659 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: about how well they can keep tabs on these guys. Uh. 660 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: It is voluntary, right, Murph. I mean they can't force 661 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: these guys to do this, right, so there is that still. Uh. 662 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: But putting it out there for the players is kind 663 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: of big. I think, you know, and I'm you and 664 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: I have talked. I don't off the air. We would 665 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,719 Speaker 1: love to get Eric Siano on. He hates doing media stuff, 666 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: but we gotta twist his arm to come on and 667 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: show us how and to give us an idea of 668 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: how that works. That's to me, that's fascinating, right, I mean, 669 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: because you know, most of easy we see all we 670 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: see these guys do in the off season. They put 671 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: these videos out of how they're working out and how 672 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: they're you know, doing all this stuff. You never see 673 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: them unless they're working out right now, you know, now 674 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: the teams voluntario though voluntarily, are gonna be able to 675 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: keep track of them. Um interesting, really interesting stuff and 676 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: how it works and you know, what's the what's the 677 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: classroom look like? I meant my kids have been going 678 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: to college virtually for the last month a month and 679 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 1: a half, so you know, so they can do it. 680 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: But man, oh man, um interesting and what's it? And 681 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 1: you said that in your you're in the rundown there 682 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: some of it's non football educational stuff. What are they 683 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: talking about? Well, I mean they usually do well, they 684 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: don't have any well they do, they don't have any 685 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: rookies in yet, but they usually have rookie programs, right, 686 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 1: and kind of self help programs for players during this 687 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 1: time of the time. I guess that take place. I 688 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: remember this last year. They do this team building stuff 689 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: where they do the tug of war and the dodgeball 690 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: stuff and they get to know each other iron bills 691 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: or something they call it right right, the team they team. 692 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: They put them on different teams with old guys and 693 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: young guys, and big guys and smaller guys and defense 694 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: defensive guys and offensive guys. They mix them all up 695 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 1: and put them on these random teams and and put 696 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: them in competitive atmospheres, you know, and nothing physical or 697 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: where emmay is going to get hurt but dodgeball. And 698 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: although I do have some emotional scars from my days 699 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: as a middle school dodgeballer, but you know, the dodgeball, 700 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: the tug of war and all that, none of that's 701 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: going to happen. I mean, it's gonna be interesting. It's 702 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: gonna be a challenge to find team building activities when 703 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: nobody can be in the same room. I bet, yeah, 704 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: I bet they have something planned they can do something, 705 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: you know. But I think I talked to Barkley about 706 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 1: this when we was on with the slast week. There 707 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: was an element of honor system here, right. How many 708 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: push up? So do you do? How many? You know? 709 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: How many dress? Did you do? What you did? Dirty? Okay, 710 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: you know you got to accept it. I guess I 711 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: can answer video or everything. I'll tell you what too. 712 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 1: And today Barkley said, today they're having a team wide 713 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: virtual video conference meeting. According to Matt Barkley, I would 714 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: I know if they do this every year the first 715 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: day of the offseason program and we never get to know, 716 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 1: you know, what Sean McDermott says. But I would love 717 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,879 Speaker 1: to know what Sean McDermott said this year under these 718 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,959 Speaker 1: circumstances to his veteran players. You know how he gets 719 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: them to forget about the distractions really of quarantine right now. 720 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 1: And yes, normally we'd all be back here in Orchard 721 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: Park together meeting and working out, and guys would be 722 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: playing golf and going to dinner. But I'd love to 723 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: know how McDermot addressed that today. Maybe we'll get the 724 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 1: coach on sooner rather than later. And I think we 725 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: will in a couple of weeks and find out what 726 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: he said. You know, how did he get these guys 727 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: attention when there's so much else going on right now? Yeah, 728 00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: and that's probably been what he has spent the lion's 729 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 1: share of his last month getting prepared for Right and 730 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: his staff certainly they've been evaluating the draft picks and 731 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 1: all that. But this, with this starting this Monday of 732 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: draft week, certainly that adds a level a degree of 733 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,879 Speaker 1: difficulty that a lot of teams is you know, don't 734 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: have to they're waiting a week. So interesting, I just 735 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: it's fascinating. These teams are still trying to win football games, 736 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: and now the degree of difficulty has been raised to 737 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 1: a point where nobody's ever had to do it. It's it's, 738 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 1: you know, uncharted waters for all these teams and how 739 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 1: they handle it. And we may see for the first 740 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: time or a vast difference in the competitive nature of 741 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: these teams. You may have a handful of teams that 742 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,760 Speaker 1: are not competitive for a month, you know, and vice versa. 743 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: You may have some teams that have always been competitive 744 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden they can't find their own helmet. 745 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: You know, it'll be interesting to see how teams handle it, 746 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: who handles it the best, and will kind of start 747 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: this NFL season gets off to if indeed it does 748 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: take place, you know what, it kind of reminds me 749 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: of Steve. Then this goes back to your era many many, 750 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 1: many many years ago. But how teams you know, during 751 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: the strike, right there was a strike in what eighty seven, 752 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: and there were replacement games played, and many teams just 753 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: blew it off and said whatever, We're not going to 754 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: pay attention to these guys. Some teams tried to build 755 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 1: good teams with replacement players and tried to win those games, 756 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 1: and they counted, you know, at the end of the season, 757 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: those games, wins and losses, counted towards a playoff standing. 758 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 1: It kind of reminds me of that, you know, I wonder. 759 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 1: I don't think teams this year right now will blow 760 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 1: off this offseason workouts, and it is only off season. 761 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody will approach it like our guys workout. 762 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,240 Speaker 1: We'll get together and the summer and put it together. 763 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: But I do think teams will have different approaches. Some 764 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,399 Speaker 1: teams will take this very seriously. Some teams they set 765 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 1: up technically to do it the right way, and others 766 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,800 Speaker 1: might not be as well. So I think that'll be 767 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: an interesting thing. You won't really know the answer until 768 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: the season is almost complete. This year, I believe now. 769 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, a fascinating thing is that teams will 770 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 1: be different. They'll be very different right out of the box. 771 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: Now this happened every year or every two or three years, 772 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: that'd be different. But right now you don't have teams 773 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: that have been successful doing this in years past, have 774 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: been they have not to be disseminated across the league. So, 775 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: for instance, if this happened this year and in five years, 776 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: three or and the Bills handle it really well, they 777 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: come out, they go undefeated in the first eight games, 778 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: they get off to a great start, and they really 779 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: did a good job. Well, five years from now and 780 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: half a dozen of those coaches are on different staffs, 781 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: they'll relate to those staffs how the Bills did it 782 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: so successfully. So it's you know, that starts to level 783 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: out again. None of that happens this year. Nobody knows 784 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: who's gonna do it best or what the best way 785 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: is because they haven't run the experiment, or hadn't had 786 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: any haven't had any seasons of experience. So there really 787 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: is the great unknown as to the results of who's 788 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: going to do it better. They're all trying, don't don't 789 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 1: get yourself wrong. I mean, these guys make a lot 790 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: of money to figure stuff like this out and implement it. 791 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,240 Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see who does it well. Well. 792 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you're you're picked on like the Cincinnati Bengals 793 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: for not spending a lot of money. Uh, do you 794 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: think there's a chance that the Bengals might not have 795 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 1: all the ducks in line here as far as technically 796 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: and what they need to have to get the players 797 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,920 Speaker 1: in terms of the kind of technical support they might 798 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 1: need right now, there's some of those teams might kind 799 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 1: of be a little lax here, isn't it. Well, here's 800 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: the thing too, Murph, think about this. The Bills have 801 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 1: you know, in the last three years with McDermott, have 802 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: been known to grab players who are self motivated, you know, 803 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: think about teams who are not that way? Who have 804 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: you kind of have that renegade? Say listen all like 805 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,920 Speaker 1: you know the old time nineteen seventies Raiders. You know, 806 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: you just turn those guys loose and they'll they'll play 807 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: on Sunday, even if they are out Saturday night. You know. 808 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,799 Speaker 1: Now it's gonna be I think, in large measure, you're 809 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: going to be dependent on those players to kind of 810 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 1: do it themselves. They are by themselves and by all accounts, 811 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: without accountability. They can't like work out with their teammates, 812 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: or at least not more than one of them. You know, 813 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 1: they got to keep socially distanced.

You want to go tweet sheet here, Steve, Yeah, 840 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 1: let's do. Let's do the tweet sheet brought to you 841 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 1: by Cargan Moving Systems, the official movers of the Buffalo Bills. 842 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 1: What do you got on the tweets from Danny says? 843 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: Woods and Williams were good, no doubt, but neither had 844 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,360 Speaker 1: the tenure of Aaron Schobel, i underrated athlete that played 845 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: when the Bills didn't mean a thing to the NFL. 846 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 1: I kind of said that earlier. The longevity and the 847 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: productivity throughout his career kind of puts Aaron Schobel and 848 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: maybe when he might be at the top of this 849 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: list for me, I know he is for the majority 850 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: of the people who have voted. I like the fact 851 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: that he played a long time and he played for 852 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: this team his entire career. That goes a long way 853 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: for me. Okay, here's one from Jason Best, second round 854 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: picked for the Bills last twenty years. Jason says, if 855 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: Keiko Alonzo had not had not gotten hurt, there's no 856 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 1: telling what his potential in Buffalo could have been after 857 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: his killer rookie season. A lot true to that Steve 858 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 1: he was. He was on fire. He certainly was a 859 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,839 Speaker 1: fan favorite despite his lack of you know, he didn't 860 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 1: really talk much, but people loved them and you know, 861 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,720 Speaker 1: people would do a funny voice and say, you know, Keiko, 862 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: ok he wasn't stupid. He certainly wasn't stupid. I think 863 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: he was and he was a really good player if 864 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: he if he didn't get hurt, I think he would 865 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: have had a different career. He's still in the league. 866 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 1: By the way, but I think it was a different career. 867 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: It's not every rookie second round draft pick that has 868 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: a rookie of Kiko. The legend of Kiko Alonso in 869 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,399 Speaker 1: his rookie season, remember that. Going around that all they 870 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: talked about was a legend of Kiko Alonso. They thought 871 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: he was the greatest thing ever. Um, And you're right, 872 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: he did get hurt, ended up being traded in the 873 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 1: in the uh Leshaun McCoy trade. I don't know, I 874 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 1: would I would say I don't know. I would say 875 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: the Bill's got the better into that trade, um with 876 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: with the Eagles, with Lashawn McCoy and Kiko Alonso. Absolutely 877 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: um usually interesting won from Kyle. I voted other for 878 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 1: Dion Dawkins as the Bill's best second round pick in 879 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: the last twenty years. Kyle says Dawkins has assumed his 880 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: role as the starting left tackle and should be a 881 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 1: long term starter at that position and a valuable last 882 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 1: to the line. Um. Well, whether he's whether or not 883 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 1: he's at that position or someplace else, I do think 884 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: he's a valuable last set to the line and that's 885 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 1: that's worth considering. Dion Dawkins, right, Oh yeah, did draft 886 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: a guy and he moves into as a rookie as 887 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 1: a starting left tackle when he was considered, I think 888 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,480 Speaker 1: by many a guard coming out of college. That's impressive. Yeah, 889 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 1: he's uh, And you know what, he wasn't there to 890 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: begin with, and he kind of got put into that spot, 891 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:34,839 Speaker 1: uh because the team wasn't that thrilled with the guy 892 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: that was playing there. Who wasn't What was who's the 893 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 1: left tackle before Dion? It was Cordy glenn Um Dion. 894 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 1: He was the second second round pick in two thousand 895 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: and seventeen, behind Drake, behind Zay Jones. That's probably a 896 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 1: good That's probably a good one. Starting left tackle is 897 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,399 Speaker 1: a second round draft pick and going into it gonna 898 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 1: get into his second contract. Perhaps, Yeah, I think that's 899 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 1: probably a good. That's a good call too. Certainly, the 900 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,880 Speaker 1: best part of his career has yet to be written, 901 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 1: or the bulk of his career has yet to be written, 902 00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,359 Speaker 1: if that's the case. But he's off to a really, 903 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: really good start. And one more from the tweet sheet, 904 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,800 Speaker 1: who's the best second round pick for the Bills since 905 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 1: two thousand? Jack writes in showboll all the way he 906 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 1: played his whole career here, played in a few Pro 907 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,280 Speaker 1: Bowls two, was a great bill on many mediocre teams. 908 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he's second all time in team mystery 909 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: in sacks behind Bruce Smith. That's pretty impressive. I gotta 910 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: look is he second all time? Yeah? I think he 911 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:38,839 Speaker 1: had to pass Phil Hanson. Did he pass Phil Hanson? Yeah? 912 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 1: I think he did. I don't know, I don't know. 913 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 1: We'll look it up. Yeah, he had a great career, 914 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 1: A yeah, he did. It was and like I said, 915 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: even for player, and I think fans appreciate it too. 916 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: But the one thing that goes a long way in 917 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: the respect meter in locker rooms around the National Football League, 918 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: both past president and future, I would to say, is 919 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 1: longevity and schobyl putting together the long career with one 920 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 1: team like he did goes a long way towards putting 921 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: him at the top of the list. Nine years with 922 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: the Bills, Aaron Schobel finished with seventy eight career sacks. 923 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: He is second all time in most sacks in his career. 924 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 1: He finished about one hundred sacks behind Bruce Smith, who 925 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 1: had one hundred and seventy one sacks Buffalo Bills. Amazing 926 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 1: how many did Phil Hanson. Have is that on the list? Yes, 927 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: Phil had sixty one and a half. So Schobel did 928 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: pass him. Yeah, yeah, it goes Bruce Smith, Aaron Schobel, 929 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 1: Phil Hanson, Cornelius Bennett, and then Kyle Williams. Those are 930 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:41,399 Speaker 1: the top five in sacks. Jerry Hugheses sixth. He may pass. 931 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 1: He should really pass Kyle Williams this year. Jerry Hughes. 932 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 1: All right, we got a break here.

And they are not interested. 964 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 1: With no games on all, the NFL Draft take center 965 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 1: stage at sports books around the nation increase offerings in 966 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: the growth of the US betting market, fueling will likely 967 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: be the most heavily bet NFL draft either.

Do you wear a 990 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 1: suit in your own house? Have you ever done that? Not? 991 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 1: If I wasn't going to leave now, only to leave, 992 00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: I got to say, Chris, I was thinking about that, 993 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,839 Speaker 1: And I'm looking at the family room here at where 994 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 1: I live and thinking next the place to be Thursday 995 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: night and Friday night.

Mandy glab and myself. 1004 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,440 Speaker 1: We'll be on the Facebook Live platform primarily, but you'll 1005 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 1: be able to find us on the other platforms as 1006 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 1: well for the Bills and then you know, Night two 1007 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:51,240 Speaker 1: will be on before Round two starts, and we'll also 1008 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:55,000 Speaker 1: be popping on with some popins after the Bills picks 1009 00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 1: and rounds two and three, and then Night three will 1010 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 1: be or Day three, i should say, because Rount and 1011 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,520 Speaker 1: the third day starts eleven am. We'll come out about 1012 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: a half hour before Day three starts, and we'll be 1013 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 1: looking for interaction from the fans too. We'll throw up 1014 00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 1: some throw out some Twitter questions to get some answers, 1015 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,839 Speaker 1: get their thoughts on how they think the drafts going 1016 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 1: for Buffalo and you know who's surprised to impress them 1017 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 1: all that stuff. So it's kind of an extension of 1018 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: our pregame show during the season Bills Field Pass, where 1019 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: we're trying to promote some interaction with the fans and 1020 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 1: get on some of our other platforms just to provide 1021 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 1: as much coverage as we can for our fans. That'd 1022 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 1: be fun. That'll be good. Do you guys when you 1023 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: get on the air before the Friday second round picked 1024 00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:39,880 Speaker 1: you and dissipate you guys making predictions of who the 1025 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: Bills will select. Predictions Well, I mean, it's the only 1026 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: reason I think it's hard is because it's not even 1027 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: like they're picking first or second in round two, you 1028 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: know what I mean, They're they're a ways down in 1029 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,919 Speaker 1: round two, all the way down at fifty four. So 1030 00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 1: you know, you're talking eighteen nineteen people coming off the 1031 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 1: board before them, even on day two, along with all 1032 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: the thirty two that came off on day one. So 1033 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,400 Speaker 1: to say you can accurately peg what's going to be 1034 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: there for them, man, I think I think you're really 1035 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 1: you're really throwing a looking for a needle in a haystack. 1036 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: Quite frankly. I mean, there are certainly players that I 1037 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 1: like in this draft that I think would be good 1038 00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 1: fits for the Bills, But to say or to know 1039 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,720 Speaker 1: whether they're going to be available as a whole different conversation. Well, 1040 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 1: before we get into those guys who you think may 1041 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: or may not be at whatever positions they're holding the 1042 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 1: mock draft today, ahead of the draft, how do you 1043 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,719 Speaker 1: think that's going to go? And if there's going to 1044 00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:40,920 Speaker 1: be a glitch or a problem, where do you think 1045 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 1: it's going to happen? Well? Would I would assume that 1046 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: the league is taking every measure possible with contingency one, two, 1047 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 1: and three to allow general managers in the event of 1048 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:02,240 Speaker 1: connectivity issues or why if I going down, or god forbid, 1049 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 1: somebody's in the you know, one of these teams, like 1050 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 1: maybe the Chiefs are dealing with tornado warnings wherever they 1051 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 1: are in the middle of the country and their power 1052 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 1: goes out, that they have some kind of contingency plan 1053 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 1: to allow teams to get their picks in and the 1054 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:20,680 Speaker 1: allotted amount of time. But yeah, that's part of the 1055 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,439 Speaker 1: reason they're running through all this stuff now with all 1056 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 1: the gms with the league office. But it could there 1057 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,360 Speaker 1: be a glitch. I suppose there could be, But I 1058 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 1: think barring some weather disaster, I think they feel like 1059 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 1: they've got all their bases covered. We're told that the 1060 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: mock draft actually began moments ago in the NFL. We 1061 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 1: won't know how it goes, but they got time to 1062 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 1: work things out if something happens today, right, And I 1063 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 1: think the league has a good kind of common sense 1064 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: approach even on draft date. You know, they won't hold 1065 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: teams slaves to the clock. If somebody these ten seconds late, 1066 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:58,479 Speaker 1: who cares, right, Chris, that's the way they're approaching. Yeah, 1067 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: and I know that the app So the last fail 1068 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,360 Speaker 1: safe is to just allow somebody to call in on 1069 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: a different line. I think they have lines and numbers 1070 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: that are dedicated to specific teams. So when they see 1071 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 1: the number, you know, I mean obviously if at seven 1072 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 1: one six and they know it's coming from Buffalo, but 1073 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: they have dedicated lines that are known as the pick 1074 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: because you know, God forbid somebody ACKs in or finds 1075 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 1: out what the number is and they call in and 1076 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 1: make a pick, you got to know it's it's the 1077 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 1: Bills for real. So they have lines that they'll be 1078 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 1: calling in on that they're from wholly familiar with. But 1079 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 1: if there's a problem with that line, you know, they 1080 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 1: can allow them to call in on a different landline 1081 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:41,160 Speaker 1: or something else. And I know a lot of the 1082 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 1: gms across the league, and I believe Brandon Bean's included, 1083 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: they're already surveying back up power options and all of 1084 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 1: those things. Well, Brownie, So as in every year, there's 1085 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,799 Speaker 1: going to be the predictable picks at the top of 1086 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: the draft, and then to the further and further down 1087 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 1: you go, the more prizes there are, and the more 1088 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 1: guys that fall out of where we thought they were 1089 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 1: going to be picked. Now, if that does get down 1090 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:10,720 Speaker 1: into the second round, what are some some values maybe 1091 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: at some positions that may fall as far as the 1092 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 1: Bills into the second round where you think maybe some 1093 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:20,440 Speaker 1: surprising value guys might be, Hey, we didn't know this 1094 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,200 Speaker 1: guy was going to be here at this pick. Well, 1095 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,280 Speaker 1: are there any guys like that that you can maybe 1096 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: get a handle on. Well, Usually guys like that fall 1097 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: out because of one of two things. Some teams don't 1098 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 1: like the off the field stuff and don't feel especially 1099 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,280 Speaker 1: in the offseason that we've experienced here with the COVID 1100 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 1: nineteen stuff, they haven't been able to vet it to 1101 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 1: their satisfaction, so they might drop somebody like that on 1102 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,280 Speaker 1: their board if they have incomplete information and haven't done 1103 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: haven't been able to do enough due diligence to feel 1104 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,880 Speaker 1: good about a person that might have some you know, 1105 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:01,359 Speaker 1: some X marks on their off the field activity. And 1106 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: then the other one is obviously injury, which is why 1107 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: Tuatagavolo is probably the most polarizing person in the entire draft, 1108 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 1: because I think it's it's widely considered that you know, 1109 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 1: he's the second best quarterback in the entire draft class. 1110 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: But who's going to blink with respect to his injury 1111 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 1: record no matter how healthy he is now coming off 1112 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,400 Speaker 1: that hip injury, that wasn't the only injury he had 1113 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: in college, and he's not a big players, you know, 1114 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 1: in terms of stature. So who's gonna blink and say, 1115 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if this guy's gonna have a very 1116 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 1: long career in the NFL because he can't He couldn't 1117 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 1: take hits in college. Is he gonna be able to 1118 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: take hits in the NFL. I don't want to draft 1119 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 1: a quarterback, no matter how great he is, if he's 1120 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 1: only gonna be able to play eight games a year 1121 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: and last five or six years because he's so beat 1122 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 1: up he can't play anymore. So these are these are 1123 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 1: real conversations that these teams have, and that's why some 1124 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,320 Speaker 1: people slip. Now, who gets to Round two? I don't 1125 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,240 Speaker 1: know if I want to name names, but I think 1126 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 1: you can guarantee that there is going to be extraordinary 1127 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver depth on Day two. That's going to be 1128 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: there no matter when the run starts on receivers. You 1129 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,320 Speaker 1: know you've seen the mock draft, some people mock as 1130 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: many as six or seven receivers going in round one. 1131 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 1: I think the question is when does the run begin, 1132 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 1: And if it begins early, like in the top ten, 1133 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 1: well maybe the value isn't quite as good, but it's 1134 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 1: still so extraordinarily deep. I mean, some of these draft 1135 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: gurus are comparing this draft class in terms of receivers 1136 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 1: to the ninety six draft, you know, with Eric Mole's, 1137 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:42,760 Speaker 1: Terry Glenn, Eddie Kennison, Marvin Harrison, Arall Owens in the 1138 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: third round. So you know, I is it that good? 1139 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's certainly very deep because you 1140 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 1: go through the list and you're like, oh my gosh, 1141 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 1: this guy's projected a third round pick. I mean in 1142 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 1: any other draft he might be at the end of 1143 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 1: round one, early round two. So you're going to get 1144 00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:59,960 Speaker 1: extraordinary value and wide receiver. I know the Bills maybe 1145 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 1: aren't as in desperate need of a receiver, although there 1146 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,400 Speaker 1: are some people out there that think they could still 1147 00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 1: add some size to the receiving corps and I'd be 1148 00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 1: in agreement with that. And then the other place where 1149 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: there's going to be really good value is at cornerback 1150 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 1: and at running back. So those are two other positions that, oh, 1151 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: by the way, our need positions for the Bills, at 1152 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:22,480 Speaker 1: least perceived by most, and I think they could. They 1153 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:26,680 Speaker 1: could really do themselves very well on day two in 1154 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:32,960 Speaker 1: the draft with the two picks that they have. One 1155 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: of the other things you got to ask you about, Brownie, 1156 00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 1: is what about Buffalo? I mean, are there some positions 1157 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:46,480 Speaker 1: where some value may fall into the bills laps? And 1158 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 1: if there are, if there does, like, for instance, if 1159 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 1: there does seem to be a handful of tackles that 1160 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: have not yet been picked, or a handful of dbs 1161 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 1: or a handful of wide receivers are running back, what 1162 00:59:57,120 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 1: positions might get some value in too deep into the 1163 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,160 Speaker 1: second round where the Bills could pick up a guy 1164 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 1: who is a huge contributor this year. Yeah, I mean 1165 01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 1: I think it. Like I said, I think it's that corner. 1166 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 1: I think it's that running back. Although I think you 1167 01:00:12,480 --> 01:00:14,479 Speaker 1: can even wait until day three on a running back 1168 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 1: and still get a pretty good one. The good news 1169 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 1: for the Bills is they don't need plug in place 1170 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: starters necessarily. If one of them turns out to be 1171 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 1: that well, then you're that much further ahead of the game. 1172 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 1: But if you draft a corner in round two and 1173 01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 1: he's a little bit slow on the uptake because of 1174 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 1: the abbreviated offseason that I think we're anticipating every NFL 1175 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: team is going to have, well, you're you're not dead 1176 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 1: in the water, because you know, you have a veteran 1177 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 1: player in Josh Norman, you have Levi Wallace, and you 1178 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: have Tredavious White. So it's not like and you have 1179 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 1: a you have a nickel corner and Taron Johnson, So 1180 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: it's not like, oh my gosh, our second round pick 1181 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 1: who we were hoping was going to be a starter 1182 01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: this year is just not ready to play yet, what 1183 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 1: are we going to do? The Bills are not in 1184 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:04,720 Speaker 1: that situation, and I think that's that's the advantage that 1185 01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: they take into this draft. There really isn't this overwhelming, 1186 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 1: glaring hole where, oh my gosh, we have to get 1187 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 1: a starter at this position because if we don't, we're 1188 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 1: going to be in trouble. And I think that affords 1189 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 1: the Bill's great flexibility and a very wide view of 1190 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 1: what this draft class has to offer. Brandon Bean doesn't 1191 01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:27,040 Speaker 1: have to really narrow his focus per se, he can 1192 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,040 Speaker 1: just pick the guy that he likes the best when 1193 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 1: they're on the board, based on their on the value 1194 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 1: they have assigned to these players Live on the line 1195 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 1: with Chris Brown Bills inside a Buffalo Bills dot Com 1196 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 1: eight fifty toll free from outside Buffalo one eight eight 1197 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:43,600 Speaker 1: eight five fifty two five fifty. If you have a 1198 01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 1: question or a comment for Chris, let's take a call 1199 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 1: from Canon Lackawanna. How can you're on the air? Go ahead, Hey, guys, Hi, 1200 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 1: Chris got a question for you. You've seen Davis web play, 1201 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: at least in practices. I think how's he looking? And 1202 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: you think there's any chance him to stay on a roster? 1203 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 1: Or should the Bills be looking for a quarterback on 1204 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Day three? Yeah? I've seen this raised as a possible 1205 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 1: question on Bill's message boards. I don't think you can 1206 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,920 Speaker 1: rule it out, you know, I know the Morgan kid 1207 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,720 Speaker 1: is a guy that's getting a lot of traction as 1208 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 1: a Day three quarterback. Prospects got a great army six 1209 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:25,560 Speaker 1: four two und twelve something two hundred and twenty, so 1210 01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:27,480 Speaker 1: a good sized quarterback with a good arm and he's 1211 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: supposed to have a pretty good head on his shoulders. 1212 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 1: So that's the guy that I know a lot of 1213 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:33,160 Speaker 1: teams are going to be looking at if he's still 1214 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: on the board in day three. I think it comes 1215 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: down to whether you feel the quarterback on the board 1216 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,040 Speaker 1: in day three is an upgrade over what you feel 1217 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,240 Speaker 1: you have in Davis Webb. If they believe that to 1218 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 1: be the case, well then they may take a swing, especially, 1219 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,320 Speaker 1: as we mentioned, knowing that there aren't a ton of 1220 01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 1: glaring holes where you couldn't take what might be perceived, 1221 01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 1: as you know, somewhat of a luxury pick and take 1222 01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 1: a third quarterback, someone that you might project to be 1223 01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,640 Speaker 1: the backup of the future behind Josh Allen. We we 1224 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,080 Speaker 1: can't dismiss the fact that Matt Barkley's heading into the 1225 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 1: last year of his contract. So do you want to 1226 01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 1: get a quarterback late that you think has some potential 1227 01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 1: to be a quality backup? I don't. I don't. I 1228 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't rule it out at all on day three, especially 1229 01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:26,840 Speaker 1: and Chris, I think Morgan from Florida FIU down in Miami, 1230 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 1: he's the kind of developmental prospect that would fit into 1231 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 1: that quarterback room. Right Well, I mean, I guess I'm 1232 01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 1: leaving Davis web By the roadside here. But I think 1233 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 1: ideally you want, obviously Josh, then veteran backup at least 1234 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 1: in this early stage of Josh's career in Matt Barkley, 1235 01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:48,520 Speaker 1: and then a developmental prospect Morgan fourth or fifth round 1236 01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 1: that might make some sense for him, right yeah, And 1237 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 1: that's why I think, you know, it's a possibility, and 1238 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 1: he might not be the only one. I mean, there's 1239 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:58,560 Speaker 1: a couple other guys that are in this class that 1240 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,720 Speaker 1: you know, I think we'll get and merit some consideration, 1241 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 1: not just by the Bills, but by other teams. And 1242 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:08,400 Speaker 1: you always have to remember, you know, gms aren't always 1243 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:10,640 Speaker 1: thinking about the here and now. They're also thinking a 1244 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 1: year out, sometimes two years out, And like I said, 1245 01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 1: we have to be mindful of the fact that, you know, 1246 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 1: Matt Barkley's heading into the last year of his contract, 1247 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:23,000 Speaker 1: and you know, could they bring him back. Obviously they could, 1248 01:04:23,920 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: but if they think there's an opportunity in the draft 1249 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:29,960 Speaker 1: to get a guy that they think could be Josh 1250 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 1: Allen's backup for six or seven years, you know, and 1251 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 1: get him for a while here, or groom him this 1252 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 1: year and see if he makes enough advances to promote 1253 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 1: him to a backup role as early as twenty twenty one. Well, 1254 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: I think they would. They would strongly consider that. Well, 1255 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,360 Speaker 1: it makes a lot of sense because the backup quarter 1256 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,720 Speaker 1: I get. It's exactly what Murph said. You get a 1257 01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: kid who's supposedly a developmental guy, and it's the one 1258 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: place and we've talked a lot about it. Late rounders 1259 01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:58,640 Speaker 1: in this draft are going to really struggle to make 1260 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 1: this roster as a third quarterback. There's a spot there 1261 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:04,640 Speaker 1: for a guy who you don't want to see play 1262 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 1: and who doesn't really need to make a contribution to 1263 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: be on the roster, and it makes a lot of 1264 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:13,760 Speaker 1: sense to get one of those picks with a late 1265 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 1: rounder where you're not looking for a guy who can 1266 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: actually cover kicks or a guy who can cover punts 1267 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 1: or something like that to get on the roster, but 1268 01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 1: a guy who can be at a quarterback a part 1269 01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:27,439 Speaker 1: of the room and then in two years become Matt 1270 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:31,760 Speaker 1: Barkley for Josh Allen as we progress, when when Barkley 1271 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 1: ages out of the spot. Yeah, the only thing you 1272 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:37,400 Speaker 1: have to consider that runs counter to that is the 1273 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 1: fact that the Bills have largely only kept two quarterbacks 1274 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 1: on the roster active, you know, under the McDermott regime. 1275 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 1: You know, Davis Webb, I think I have that right. 1276 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,960 Speaker 1: He was on the practice sque Yeah, yeah, dab yeah. 1277 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 1: So they only carry two quarterbacks last year, and I 1278 01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 1: believe the only reason that changed the year prior, you know, 1279 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 1: was because of injury and the whole mess and mean 1280 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 1: Derek Anderson and then Barkley. There were times where the 1281 01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 1: three quarterback nineteen guys injured two years ago. So you 1282 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 1: also wonder how much that enters the conversation, do we 1283 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 1: want to is it worth drafting a kid on Day 1284 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:21,640 Speaker 1: three at the quarterback position when we have a backup 1285 01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:25,040 Speaker 1: who's firmly entrenched in Barkley, and we have our starter 1286 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 1: in Allen And more often than not, we like to 1287 01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: go into the regular season with just two quarterbacks on 1288 01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 1: the roster and keep a third on the practice squad, 1289 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 1: because if you're going to spend an early Day three 1290 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 1: pick on a quarterback, I don't think you're going to 1291 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,280 Speaker 1: want to leave him exposed on your practice squad for 1292 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:43,960 Speaker 1: anybody else to sign to their active rosters. So these 1293 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: are the kinds of conversations that they have to have 1294 01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 1: based on roster makeup, you know, not just preparing for 1295 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: the future. With Chris Brown, Bills Insider Buffalo Bills dot Com, 1296 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:55,800 Speaker 1: we're getting a couple of phone calls in can you 1297 01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:59,480 Speaker 1: stick around for one more second with us? Chris? Yeah, okay, 1298 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 1: And before we get to that, can I ask you 1299 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,800 Speaker 1: here's my want to hear my draft theory? And Steve said, 1300 01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:07,800 Speaker 1: what did I have a hunch. It's not I'm not 1301 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 1: convinced this will happen, but just based on what Brandon 1302 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:13,720 Speaker 1: Mean has said, based on what we know about Brandon Mean, 1303 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,800 Speaker 1: how much he likes to maneuver around the draft board, 1304 01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: I have a hunch that when it comes to Friday, 1305 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,560 Speaker 1: all day long, they'll be looking at who's still left, 1306 01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 1: who were potential first rounders on their board, who are 1307 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,800 Speaker 1: and are still available, And I have a feeling the 1308 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:29,320 Speaker 1: Bills are going to try to make a move up 1309 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,520 Speaker 1: in the second round. You know, Brandon beat himself on 1310 01:07:32,560 --> 01:07:35,000 Speaker 1: our show last week, talked about what it would take 1311 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: to move up to thirty five, maybe somewhere the thirty 1312 01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: five to forty. Last year they moved up to thirty 1313 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 1: eight to get Cody Forward to move a two spots. 1314 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 1: It would not surprise me at all, and I think 1315 01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,360 Speaker 1: that would make Friday night kind of fun. What do 1316 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,919 Speaker 1: you think, Chris, I don't deny it would make it fun. 1317 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,280 Speaker 1: We know in the two in the two drafts that 1318 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,240 Speaker 1: he's running for the Bills, he's had four trades during 1319 01:07:56,280 --> 01:08:00,520 Speaker 1: the draft and all of them have been up the board. Yeah, 1320 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:03,000 Speaker 1: you know, two in twenty eighteen and then two in 1321 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,840 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, so you know, moving up last year for 1322 01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 1: Cody four two spots and then moving up a full 1323 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 1: round for Dawson Knox. Now, I was trying to, you know, 1324 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: crunch some numbers on some of that, and if the 1325 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,559 Speaker 1: Bills give up their two and their three, it looks 1326 01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 1: like the highest they could get would be thirty nine 1327 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,920 Speaker 1: at Miami's pick, and they'd have to give up even 1328 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,759 Speaker 1: more of their later round picks to kind of climb 1329 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:31,560 Speaker 1: a little bit higher because the value drops off precipitously 1330 01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:34,200 Speaker 1: once you get to those fifth, six, and seventh round picks. 1331 01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:35,720 Speaker 1: You're talking a lot. Yeah, I think I figured out 1332 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:38,000 Speaker 1: if they throw a fourth rounder in there, which they have, 1333 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 1: and then they move up to the top thirty five, 1334 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: which is you know, three picks into the second round, 1335 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 1: that's not bad. And then basically you make your pick 1336 01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 1: and kick back and say see it at the end 1337 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 1: of the day on Saturday. So one of the things 1338 01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:53,000 Speaker 1: that makes this work is that, you know, seven draft picks, 1339 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: We're not going to have seven drafted rookies on the 1340 01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:58,600 Speaker 1: fifty three man roster in the fall, you know what 1341 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,640 Speaker 1: I mean. Yeah, I might to agree with Yeah, I 1342 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,000 Speaker 1: would tend to agree with that. And so you know, 1343 01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:07,679 Speaker 1: if somebody slides that you didn't anticipate, or there's somebody 1344 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 1: you really covet that's still on the board longer than 1345 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:14,840 Speaker 1: you anticipated. We've seen Brandon being strike for a whole 1346 01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:18,520 Speaker 1: host of reasons. The other reason that he's been proactive 1347 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 1: instead of reactive is when he sees a run at 1348 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:24,080 Speaker 1: a certain position. Last year is a perfect example. There 1349 01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:26,559 Speaker 1: was a run on tight ends, and he wanted an 1350 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: athletic tight end, Dawson Knox. As he even said after 1351 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:32,519 Speaker 1: the draft, Brandon being said he was the only one 1352 01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:34,559 Speaker 1: left on the board. We knew he wasn't gonna last 1353 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,719 Speaker 1: much longer, so we had to go get him. So 1354 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 1: I think if there's a run on a position group 1355 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:43,240 Speaker 1: that he had a particular interest in I could see 1356 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:46,479 Speaker 1: him making a move and just flat out if somebody's 1357 01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,400 Speaker 1: sliding that he doesn't think deserves to be slide. And 1358 01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 1: based on what his board's telling him, yeah, he could. 1359 01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 1: He could put together a package for sure. With Chris 1360 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:57,760 Speaker 1: Brown Bills inside a Buffalo Bills dot Com. We got 1361 01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 1: phone callers on the line waiting to ask Chris.

I actually, when I'm 1368 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:28,719 Speaker 1: gonna took a little walk, it felt like a longer 1369 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:30,760 Speaker 1: than usual break, Hey, Chris. So, we got a phone 1370 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 1: caller on the line stand by. Here we go. This 1371 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 1: is Nick in Buffalo with a question for Chris Brown. 1372 01:10:36,200 --> 01:10:38,680 Speaker 1: Go ahead and Nick you're on the air. Hey Chris, um, 1373 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:43,240 Speaker 1: those have been linked to no tackle Ross blacklock and 1374 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:46,599 Speaker 1: if that is true, do you think that the Bills 1375 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:50,280 Speaker 1: would turn around and maybe deal Harrison Phillips for some 1376 01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:54,759 Speaker 1: more picks. He's probably not going to be in future 1377 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,360 Speaker 1: plans because I don't think he's really turned out the 1378 01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 1: way because adventuries maybe, but it's you pick up Blacklock 1379 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,920 Speaker 1: and the free engine ecquisitions we've got this year just 1380 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:08,400 Speaker 1: create extra, an extra body there which we can flip. Maybe. 1381 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:12,919 Speaker 1: Is it possible? Do you think that I'd be surprised 1382 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:15,040 Speaker 1: if they move on from Harrison Phillips. I think he's 1383 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 1: everything that they believe they want in a player, not 1384 01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:21,760 Speaker 1: only in terms of ability, but in terms of that 1385 01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 1: DNA that they talk about all the time. And I 1386 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 1: know he's coming off in ACL, but you know he's 1387 01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: done everything to the letter. And I think what people 1388 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: forget is he was playing some of his best football 1389 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 1: right when he got injured last season. And to take 1390 01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 1: it a step further, he is the guy that is 1391 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 1: going to be entrusted this year with all of the 1392 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,559 Speaker 1: pass rush game calls on the field. This was something 1393 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:53,240 Speaker 1: that Kyle Williams used to handle for an untold number 1394 01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 1: of years, and then Lorenzo Alexander and Harrison Phillips were 1395 01:11:57,040 --> 01:12:00,880 Speaker 1: entrusted by Leslie Frasier to take on that where they 1396 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,840 Speaker 1: literally call what the past rush game is going to 1397 01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 1: be right before the snap based on the formation of 1398 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 1: the opposing offense. And I think that Harrison Phillips actually 1399 01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 1: surprised this coaching staff last year with the amount of 1400 01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:17,559 Speaker 1: push he can get in the pocket on passing downs. 1401 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's gonna be out there all the time, 1402 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:22,559 Speaker 1: but I don't think he's someone that they'd be looking 1403 01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 1: to move now. Blacklock is an exceptional player. I don't 1404 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,559 Speaker 1: know if there's too many defensive tackles in this class 1405 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:33,160 Speaker 1: that can throw an offensive lineman into reverse as quickly 1406 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 1: as he can. He is a special player, but he's 1407 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,639 Speaker 1: going to be off the board in the early twenties 1408 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,599 Speaker 1: somewhere at the latest. In my opinion, I don't think 1409 01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 1: the Bills are going to get a whiff of him 1410 01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:46,960 Speaker 1: unless they trade up into round one, and even Brandon 1411 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:50,800 Speaker 1: Bean has said that's something they're not even considering. Well, Brandon, 1412 01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 1: let me ask you this, then, what if a guy 1413 01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:59,400 Speaker 1: like Blacklock falls to you ten picks into like thirty 1414 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:02,280 Speaker 1: two thirty five range early in the second round. Could 1415 01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:06,479 Speaker 1: that be the type of player that that being jumps 1416 01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:08,719 Speaker 1: up floor like we've been talking about, where he jumps 1417 01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,080 Speaker 1: up to the thirty five spot to grab the guy. 1418 01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 1: Is Blacklock that kind of guy? If he's a thirty five, 1419 01:13:16,000 --> 01:13:17,800 Speaker 1: the Bills aren't going to be the only team looking 1420 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 1: to get up there. I can promise you that, Okay, 1421 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 1: he is. He's one of the top three or four 1422 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,000 Speaker 1: defensive tackles in the entire class. I think the only 1423 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:30,280 Speaker 1: guy that's probably definitively ahead of him is Derek Brown, 1424 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: the kid from Auburn who's expected, you know, to be 1425 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 1: a top ten pick. And after him, you're looking at 1426 01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 1: Kin Law from South Carolina, so he's probably gonna go 1427 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:46,960 Speaker 1: before Blacklock, and then maybe maybe Marlon Davidson. But some 1428 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:48,800 Speaker 1: people see him as a defensive end in a three 1429 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,840 Speaker 1: to four, not necessarily a true DT. So you can 1430 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:55,559 Speaker 1: make the argument that Blacklock's the third best defensive tackle 1431 01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:58,519 Speaker 1: in the entire class. I don't see him getting at 1432 01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 1: around one. I'd be stunned, Chris. I think, Look, they're 1433 01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 1: moving up for the Bills in the second round. I 1434 01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:06,880 Speaker 1: don't think they'll move to the first. This is just 1435 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:09,000 Speaker 1: me talking, But if they move up in the second 1436 01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 1: I think, I think, and I'm interested in your theory 1437 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 1: on this. I think there are two positions which might 1438 01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:18,080 Speaker 1: be paramount for the Bills. Number one would be offensive linement, 1439 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 1: maybe tackle. Maybe there's some good offensive tackles in this draft. 1440 01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:24,040 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe somebody gets out of the first round down 1441 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,599 Speaker 1: into the early second they'd be interested in. The other 1442 01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 1: position group is wide receiver. There's a ton of wide receivers. 1443 01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 1: If the guy that the Bills really like, Chase Claypool, 1444 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:36,760 Speaker 1: for example, is there going into Friday, you know, with 1445 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 1: maybe five or six receivers going in the first round Thursday, 1446 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: I can see the Bills moving up to get him too. 1447 01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:46,160 Speaker 1: I think offensive line or two position groups of Bills 1448 01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 1: might be keeping an eye on postly when it comes 1449 01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 1: to I'll move up or even if they tet fifty four. Right. 1450 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,600 Speaker 1: Here's a concern with the offensive tackle position. There's a 1451 01:14:56,640 --> 01:15:00,160 Speaker 1: general consensus that while there are four or five i've 1452 01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:04,599 Speaker 1: high end, top tier tackles in this draft, to drop 1453 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:11,599 Speaker 1: off after that is pretty significant. Most of the draft guides, 1454 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: if you want to subscribe to those to any degree, 1455 01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:19,400 Speaker 1: probably have anywhere from four to five offensive tackles that 1456 01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:24,400 Speaker 1: are considered first round grade, and then after that there's 1457 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:27,679 Speaker 1: only about two or three that get a second round grade. 1458 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:31,679 Speaker 1: And because of that, there's a general opinion by many 1459 01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:34,559 Speaker 1: who have their ear to the ground on this stuff 1460 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:39,920 Speaker 1: that the run on tackles could happen very soon or 1461 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:43,479 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later in round one, and that could 1462 01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:47,160 Speaker 1: potentially dilute what's available at the top of round two. 1463 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 1: So as much as I agree with your theory, I'm 1464 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 1: not sure it's going to play out favorably at the 1465 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:56,439 Speaker 1: offensive tackle position based on the things that I'm hearing. 1466 01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 1: And then with respect to wide receiver, I think the 1467 01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,559 Speaker 1: value will be there because I think a lot of 1468 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:05,719 Speaker 1: the quality talent that maybe in any other year would 1469 01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 1: be low first round is going to seep into the 1470 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,679 Speaker 1: second round just because of the sheer numbers that you're 1471 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 1: dealing with. And Claypool is a guy that I like 1472 01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 1: a lot. After seeing him at the Senior Bowl, I 1473 01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 1: was very impressed with him, But there's a lot of 1474 01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:22,760 Speaker 1: other guys too that offer size. You've got ten of 1475 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:26,280 Speaker 1: the twelve wide receivers that are projected to come off 1476 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: the board and rounds two and three, ten of them 1477 01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 1: are six two and at least two hundred and five pounds, 1478 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:34,960 Speaker 1: So it's not like the cupboard's going to be bare. 1479 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:38,000 Speaker 1: If that one big receiver that slips a round two 1480 01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 1: comes off the board before the Bills pick, there will 1481 01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,280 Speaker 1: be options. It's just a matter of how much do 1482 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 1: they like option A, B, C, D or E, because 1483 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 1: there could be that many. And there's also a thought 1484 01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 1: that a player that you can get high and round 1485 01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 1: two is going to be negligible in terms of difference. 1486 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:01,760 Speaker 1: You know early in round three. This is about a 1487 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:06,800 Speaker 1: thirty five picks range where many feel that the quality 1488 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: of receiver you're getting is negligible because there just are 1489 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 1: so many A Brownie, here's the question. I guess because 1490 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 1: we know there's a bunch of wide receivers. You just 1491 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:20,960 Speaker 1: said that there's not that many quality tackles that you 1492 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 1: can plug and play, So I guess I ask you 1493 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:28,719 Speaker 1: the question is what positions do teams really need this year? 1494 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 1: That there is not very many of? That means all 1495 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 1: those players at that position that is relatively bereft of 1496 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 1: talent in this draft, those positions, those guys are all 1497 01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 1: going to go higher than they normally would because there's 1498 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:45,160 Speaker 1: nobody to draft at that position. So what positions in 1499 01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 1: this draft are there's none of that will cause whatever's 1500 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:51,680 Speaker 1: there to be taken a lot earlier. You know what 1501 01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying, which means all those wide receivers go further 1502 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 1: down the board because for instance, what is their running 1503 01:17:57,640 --> 01:18:00,559 Speaker 1: backs or tight ends or linebacker, you name a position. 1504 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,639 Speaker 1: There's no talent at this position in this draft. That's 1505 01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:05,599 Speaker 1: why whatever is there, it's going to go higher than 1506 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 1: it normally would have. Yeah, there's lesser talent at the 1507 01:18:09,120 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 1: edge rushing position. You know, true bend the corners, speed 1508 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,160 Speaker 1: off the edge guys. There just aren't a whole lot 1509 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 1: of them this year, and so they're going to be 1510 01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:22,479 Speaker 1: at a premium and go quickly. Then you have the 1511 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:24,720 Speaker 1: tight end position. You got two or three players that 1512 01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,080 Speaker 1: are really good, you know, whether you're talking about the 1513 01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 1: trout and kid from Dayton or Commet from Notre Dame. 1514 01:18:30,760 --> 01:18:33,519 Speaker 1: But there's a there's a hefty drop off after the 1515 01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:36,240 Speaker 1: top two or three, and then you're just looking for, 1516 01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, a back half of the position group on 1517 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 1: your roster kind of guy, and then you know you 1518 01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 1: can make the argument for offensive tackle. After that top five, 1519 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,719 Speaker 1: you might have two or three that are appropriate value 1520 01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 1: for Day two, but after that it's it's good luck. Charlie, 1521 01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:58,639 Speaker 1: so I think those are three positions. Linebackers another one, 1522 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:00,799 Speaker 1: but that's kind of tough to get age only because 1523 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:04,720 Speaker 1: people view linebackers so differently. Some put some of those 1524 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 1: outside linebackers in the edge category, especially if they play 1525 01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:11,320 Speaker 1: a three four system, And then there are others that say, wow, 1526 01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:14,760 Speaker 1: there's no linebacker talent whatsoever, because maybe they're looking for 1527 01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:17,240 Speaker 1: an inside guy, which seems to be harder to find 1528 01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:19,960 Speaker 1: a year over year in the draft pool. So those 1529 01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:22,680 Speaker 1: would probably be the positions I would point to on 1530 01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:24,559 Speaker 1: the line. With Chris Brown just a minute or two left, 1531 01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 1: let me take you away from the draft for a second, Brownie. Today, 1532 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:30,559 Speaker 1: the Bills and eleven other teams started their offseason program 1533 01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 1: in a totally different way. What did that mean? What 1534 01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:35,439 Speaker 1: does that mean for the Bills? From what you know, 1535 01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:39,840 Speaker 1: what are they going to try to do remotely? Well, 1536 01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:42,200 Speaker 1: they're one of two or three teams that are just 1537 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:45,360 Speaker 1: are doing physical workouts in addition to all the classroom 1538 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 1: work that was approved by the league in the NFLPA, 1539 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,280 Speaker 1: So the Bills and a couple of other teams are 1540 01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:55,080 Speaker 1: the only ones that are conducting remote physical workouts in 1541 01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:59,760 Speaker 1: addition to classroom work, which is typically what goes on 1542 01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:02,960 Speaker 1: time of year. Now, I think the reason that they're 1543 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 1: trying to make it work is twofold number one. You're 1544 01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:10,200 Speaker 1: in phase one where there really isn't any football related 1545 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:13,680 Speaker 1: work allowed anyway, and coaches can't even be on the 1546 01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 1: field with players during phase one of normal offseason conditioning programs. 1547 01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 1: So I think they put their heads together and say, hey, look, 1548 01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 1: there's no reason these guys can't do this phase one 1549 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,680 Speaker 1: work since they only work with the strength and conditioning 1550 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,280 Speaker 1: staff this time of year anyway. So let's just get 1551 01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 1: online with them, give them the dues and dotes, do 1552 01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:34,000 Speaker 1: some how to videos if we need to, and then 1553 01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:37,800 Speaker 1: just send them the program via email or what have you. 1554 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:41,320 Speaker 1: So that's what they're undertaking. And I think the second 1555 01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:43,840 Speaker 1: reason why they're trying to do that is, at least 1556 01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:46,040 Speaker 1: from what we've seen from some of the national reporters, 1557 01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:49,559 Speaker 1: the Bills have one of the highest amounts of player's 1558 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:53,120 Speaker 1: salary tied to offseason workouts. They do that to try 1559 01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:56,439 Speaker 1: to get guys to stay committed to the offseason program. 1560 01:20:56,520 --> 01:21:00,439 Speaker 1: So they have to fulfill attendance requirements, workout requirements, and 1561 01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:03,280 Speaker 1: be on site to do that. Obviously, you can't do 1562 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:05,680 Speaker 1: that now. But I think they're giving the players the 1563 01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 1: opportunity to complete the program remotely so they can get 1564 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:13,639 Speaker 1: those workout bonuses. Brennan, I gotta ask him, how what's 1565 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:15,439 Speaker 1: your duck feeling? I'm gonna know. I'm asking you to 1566 01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:17,559 Speaker 1: kind of predict the future. Burt Murph and I had 1567 01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:20,559 Speaker 1: this conversation earlier in the show. How big an edge 1568 01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 1: does a team think they can get in this virtual offseason, 1569 01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:27,760 Speaker 1: when everything's kind of different and everybody is doing things 1570 01:21:27,760 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 1: in a different way. How big an edge or perhaps 1571 01:21:30,479 --> 01:21:32,920 Speaker 1: how far behind could a team fall if they don't 1572 01:21:32,960 --> 01:21:36,639 Speaker 1: handle it well. Well, I don't know if it's as 1573 01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:39,800 Speaker 1: much as I don't know if it's focused or is 1574 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:43,519 Speaker 1: hinging as much on what is being done now as 1575 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:45,680 Speaker 1: much as what is being missed. And I guess what 1576 01:21:45,760 --> 01:21:49,800 Speaker 1: I mean by that is, I think the inherent disadvantages 1577 01:21:49,840 --> 01:21:53,559 Speaker 1: are already in place. If you're a team that needs 1578 01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:57,720 Speaker 1: an influx of young talent from the draft because you 1579 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:02,200 Speaker 1: are an aging roster and you've got like the Miami Dolphins, 1580 01:22:02,200 --> 01:22:05,479 Speaker 1: for example, they've got fourteen picks in the draft. Let's 1581 01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:07,599 Speaker 1: just even if they trade up a couple of times, 1582 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:12,160 Speaker 1: they're arguably still going to finish with ten rookie players 1583 01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:15,360 Speaker 1: that have to come in, learn a system and rep 1584 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:18,439 Speaker 1: it and may not get to do that until August 1585 01:22:19,080 --> 01:22:23,320 Speaker 1: for the first time. You've got teams with new coaches. 1586 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 1: You know the Giants with Joe Judge, You've got the 1587 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:31,040 Speaker 1: Washington Redskins with Ron Rivera. These are guys who have 1588 01:22:31,800 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 1: largely the majority of their roster unfamiliar with their respective 1589 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:39,880 Speaker 1: offensive and defensive schemes. You're not repping it now, and 1590 01:22:39,960 --> 01:22:42,080 Speaker 1: you're probably not repping it in May in a group 1591 01:22:42,160 --> 01:22:46,760 Speaker 1: setting anyway. So they are inherently at a disadvantage. And 1592 01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,040 Speaker 1: that's why I thought Brandon Being made an excellent point 1593 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:53,360 Speaker 1: when he said, part of the reason we recruited some 1594 01:22:53,439 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 1: of the players we did in free agency was because 1595 01:22:56,320 --> 01:23:00,400 Speaker 1: of their familiarity with our system. Whether it's Ajau who 1596 01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:02,759 Speaker 1: played in Carolina and has played in this system before, 1597 01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:08,960 Speaker 1: or Quinton or the Vernon Butler or Mario Addison, who 1598 01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:12,400 Speaker 1: know the defense that Sean McDermott likes to run because 1599 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 1: they've run it with him as their defensive coordinator. They're 1600 01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:19,320 Speaker 1: looking for every advantage in the circumstances that we're currently 1601 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 1: dealing with so even in an abbreviated offseason where you're 1602 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:25,360 Speaker 1: not repping it nearly as much as you probably would 1603 01:23:25,439 --> 01:23:27,920 Speaker 1: in a normal offseason, you're ahead of the game. But 1604 01:23:28,040 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 1: new coaches and teams that are turning over their rosters 1605 01:23:31,080 --> 01:23:33,960 Speaker 1: with youth, they're going to be behind no matter what 1606 01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:37,759 Speaker 1: efforts they make. In my opinion, I said to Steve Kristen, 1607 01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 1: we don't normally have access to this sort of thing, 1608 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:42,720 Speaker 1: so I wouldn't expect to get it this year. But 1609 01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:44,439 Speaker 1: I would have loved to have been a fly on 1610 01:23:44,479 --> 01:23:46,920 Speaker 1: the wall for the initial team meeting today, just to 1611 01:23:46,960 --> 01:23:49,439 Speaker 1: hear what sort of message Sean McDermott would have for 1612 01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:53,240 Speaker 1: his players as they begin their offseason work on a 1613 01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 1: voluntary basis, and how he would set the tone, what 1614 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:58,800 Speaker 1: he would say about the unique circumstances that they all 1615 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:00,720 Speaker 1: face right now. I think that'd be be interesting to hear, 1616 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 1: don't you right? And I'm not going to pretend to 1617 01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 1: know what coach McDermott's thinking, but my inclination would be 1618 01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,960 Speaker 1: that his message, at least in part, would be, don't 1619 01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:17,240 Speaker 1: let the circumstances take your focus off the goal, whether 1620 01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:22,400 Speaker 1: it's personal or whether it's team related. This team clearly 1621 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 1: was planning to make a push in twenty twenty, and 1622 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:30,240 Speaker 1: I don't think those plans have changed in terms of 1623 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:33,280 Speaker 1: what they're aspiring to be as a team. But these 1624 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:37,360 Speaker 1: circumstances are throwing the Bills and every other team into 1625 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 1: a challenging circumstance. But knowing how methodical and how knows 1626 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,920 Speaker 1: to the grindstone coach McDermott is, my guests would be. 1627 01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:48,200 Speaker 1: He's telling them, do not let the circumstances all to 1628 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:50,920 Speaker 1: your focus or think that it's going to change what 1629 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 1: our goals are for twenty twenty. And I think he's 1630 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 1: naturally hoping that the guys, even though they're all doing 1631 01:24:57,240 --> 01:25:02,799 Speaker 1: it remotely and on an individual basis, subscrib to that wholeheartedly. Brownie. 1632 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:04,479 Speaker 1: I got to ask you one last thing about this 1633 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:07,479 Speaker 1: draft coming up on Thursday and Friday. If the Bills 1634 01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:11,280 Speaker 1: can't do you expect the Bills expect to get a 1635 01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 1: guy that can contribute to this roster at number fifty four, 1636 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 1: and if so, at what position and if they trade up? 1637 01:25:19,439 --> 01:25:22,120 Speaker 1: Could that be the reason that they don't know if 1638 01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:24,800 Speaker 1: they can get a contributor at number fifty four because 1639 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:26,640 Speaker 1: of the strength of the roster this year compared to 1640 01:25:26,680 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 1: the last few years. If you do think they can 1641 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 1: get one, what position do you think it's going to be? 1642 01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:36,320 Speaker 1: And if they trade up, same question. Yeah, I mean 1643 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:40,840 Speaker 1: your first three rounds. In any draft, you're hoping that 1644 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:46,719 Speaker 1: you're drafting a starter, maybe the third round player, Maybe 1645 01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 1: not right away, maybe not in their first year. But 1646 01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,599 Speaker 1: I think you feel that if you do your homework 1647 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:56,600 Speaker 1: and your due diligence, and you assess value correctly, that 1648 01:25:56,760 --> 01:26:00,320 Speaker 1: you should be able to get a starting caliber player 1649 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:03,960 Speaker 1: with your first three draft choices. And I think this 1650 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 1: draft is deep enough to provide that. And you can 1651 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:11,280 Speaker 1: just use last year's draft for the Bills as an example. 1652 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:16,519 Speaker 1: You know Ed Oliver, Cody Ford, Devin Singletary, three players 1653 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:19,400 Speaker 1: who by the end of the season were critical components 1654 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:21,640 Speaker 1: of this team on the offensive and defensive side of 1655 01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 1: the ball. So I would tend to use that as 1656 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 1: a roadmap for what you should be able to get 1657 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 1: in rounds two and three. And Brandon Bean has expressed 1658 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:33,680 Speaker 1: every confidence that he believes they'll be able to achieve that. 1659 01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:37,479 Speaker 1: And I think the draft is deep enough at some 1660 01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:40,519 Speaker 1: of the positions of interest for the Bills where they'll 1661 01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:43,880 Speaker 1: be able to accomplish that, and those positions are cornerback, 1662 01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:49,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver, and running back. Again, you don't necessarily need 1663 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 1: front line players at any of those positions, but we 1664 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:57,000 Speaker 1: have to remember again, you've got a player like Tie 1665 01:26:57,040 --> 01:27:00,160 Speaker 1: and Secki in the final year of his contract. You've 1666 01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:02,800 Speaker 1: got a player like Josh Norman who signed only a 1667 01:27:02,840 --> 01:27:06,559 Speaker 1: one year contract, and you've got a running back position 1668 01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:10,679 Speaker 1: group that has only three players and t. J. Yeldon 1669 01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 1: is entering the last year of his contract. So you 1670 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 1: should be able in the first three rounds to get 1671 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:19,240 Speaker 1: starting caliber players. And even if they don't start right away, 1672 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:22,520 Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident they could get players at those respective 1673 01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:25,960 Speaker 1: positions that could that could provide an impact early and 1674 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:29,840 Speaker 1: then maybe take on a larger role later. Andy, Chris, 1675 01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:32,320 Speaker 1: thanks for this. We'll talk this week and you're getting 1676 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:35,679 Speaker 1: ready for your special streaming video preview of the draft 1677 01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:40,400 Speaker 1: with Maddy glavit A's seven thirty Thursday night.

Thanks Chris, good talking mere. Thanks Brady, 1685 01:28:05,320 --> 01:28:07,960 Speaker 1: Chris Brown builds inside the Buffalo Bills dot Com. Stephen 1686 01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:10,960 Speaker 1: at Coming Back One Builds Live presented by Kalida Health 1687 01:28:11,160 --> 01:28:21,639 Speaker 1: Radio only today. This is Buffalo Bills Radio. We're back 1688 01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:25,680 Speaker 1: one tasker here until three. We got Tony Pauline of 1689 01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:29,080 Speaker 1: the UH talking about the draft with us at two o'clock. 1690 01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,200 Speaker 1: So they got this mock draft and started at one, 1691 01:28:31,479 --> 01:28:36,120 Speaker 1: and Adam Schefter and others issuing reports. Sending text to 1692 01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:41,519 Speaker 1: a GM's Diana Rassini from ESPN heard tweet about twenty 1693 01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 1: minutes ago, Steve. She says, text from a GM during 1694 01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:47,840 Speaker 1: this mock draft quote, there are early communication issues because 1695 01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:50,160 Speaker 1: thirty two of us gms are on the conference call 1696 01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 1: and we didn't hit mute. Sounds awful. And then about 1697 01:28:55,280 --> 01:28:58,160 Speaker 1: five minutes later, she says, after the start, that's running smoothly. 1698 01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 1: It's quiet. Actually on the call. They're learning. That's why 1699 01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:02,519 Speaker 1: they did this run through, right. I don't think it's 1700 01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,360 Speaker 1: an it's any sign of a chaos coming Thursday night. 1701 01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:10,679 Speaker 1: That's why you have a run through Murphy teach guys 1702 01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:15,160 Speaker 1: how to hit the mute button. Um. And and interestingly enough, 1703 01:29:15,200 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 1: hopefully not like you and me, they'll remember to hit 1704 01:29:17,360 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 1: unmute when you start turned to top. So yeah, and 1705 01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 1: it's stuff like that that, you know, is pretty frustrating 1706 01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,960 Speaker 1: because you get a guy who isn't well versed in 1707 01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:31,800 Speaker 1: it and it causes a problem. Again, nobody can fix 1708 01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:35,080 Speaker 1: it for him. You know, nobody's gonna be there. Adam 1709 01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:38,840 Speaker 1: schefter Um about a half hour ago, tweeted this out 1710 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:41,280 Speaker 1: text from a participant in the NFL's mock draft that 1711 01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:44,640 Speaker 1: started at one pm. Quote, mock draft today already a 1712 01:29:44,720 --> 01:29:49,719 Speaker 1: technical glitch with Cincinnati's first pick brutal. So even before 1713 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:51,479 Speaker 1: the Bengals got the first selection off the board, they 1714 01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:53,640 Speaker 1: did tell me, but they'll work through it. I have 1715 01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:55,439 Speaker 1: no I have no doubt they'll work through it. I 1716 01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,640 Speaker 1: think it'll be fine. Yeah, And and and look, you 1717 01:29:58,640 --> 01:30:03,479 Speaker 1: know who forecasts Steve in a way was random Bean. 1718 01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:05,880 Speaker 1: He said, Hey, I'll you know, we talked about it 1719 01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:08,200 Speaker 1: last week. Let the other guys work through the technical 1720 01:30:08,240 --> 01:30:10,000 Speaker 1: glitches by the time it gets to Friday, night. It 1721 01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:13,280 Speaker 1: should be a finally tuned machine. Well yeah, and it's it. 1722 01:30:13,840 --> 01:30:16,880 Speaker 1: You got to I mean, you can't just expect it 1723 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:18,800 Speaker 1: to go smoothly with all these guys all the way 1724 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,599 Speaker 1: across the country. You know it's going to have some glitches, 1725 01:30:21,680 --> 01:30:24,680 Speaker 1: but the question is how big are they. Are they 1726 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 1: going to cause problems or you know some historic snaffo 1727 01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:30,040 Speaker 1: where one player doesn't get taken, he goes to the 1728 01:30:30,040 --> 01:30:33,400 Speaker 1: next pick and he becomes a Hall of Famer, you 1729 01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:37,120 Speaker 1: know what I mean, that kind of thing. So interesting. 1730 01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 1: But this mock draft, I think is really really sharp 1731 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 1: way to go. In fact, even when they get back 1732 01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:46,840 Speaker 1: to normal, maybe they'll do a mock draft again every 1733 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:49,080 Speaker 1: year just to make sure it goes off right, particularly 1734 01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:50,880 Speaker 1: in these venues where they get out where it turns 1735 01:30:50,880 --> 01:30:54,559 Speaker 1: into a stage show. All right, So we got another 1736 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:56,360 Speaker 1: already going and coming up after the top of the 1737 01:30:56,400 --> 01:30:59,360 Speaker 1: hour break, we've got Tony Pauline Pro Football Network's NFL 1738 01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 1: Draft and a host of the Draft Insider's prospect. I 1739 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,080 Speaker 1: want to Steve, with your permission, talk to Tony a 1740 01:31:05,080 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 1: little bit about I think, and we haven't done it 1741 01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:10,280 Speaker 1: by design, but I want to talk about the top 1742 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:12,960 Speaker 1: of the draft. Where are these quarterbacks going? We know 1743 01:31:13,040 --> 01:31:15,240 Speaker 1: one and two, we think, but what happens after that? 1744 01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:18,000 Speaker 1: Even though the Bills are involved, are not involved in 1745 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,559 Speaker 1: the top half of the draft, the top first round anyway. 1746 01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:22,880 Speaker 1: I think there's some interesting things that are going to 1747 01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:26,479 Speaker 1: happen on Thursday night, don't you. I do. And it starts, 1748 01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:28,479 Speaker 1: and we had I can't remember who it was. I 1749 01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:31,840 Speaker 1: think it was one of the guests who in National 1750 01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:34,479 Speaker 1: Guys says he thinks that the draft won't start until 1751 01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:37,599 Speaker 1: Detroit at number three. He thinks the first two picks 1752 01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:41,400 Speaker 1: of the draft are given in Joe Burrow to Cincinnati, 1753 01:31:41,760 --> 01:31:45,080 Speaker 1: and then number two will be Chase Young too. I 1754 01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:48,439 Speaker 1: believe it's Washington, Washington, Yeah, yeah, and then Detroit goes 1755 01:31:48,520 --> 01:31:51,800 Speaker 1: number three. In Detroit with so many needs, I think 1756 01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:54,920 Speaker 1: that's the pick that teams wanting to trade into to 1757 01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:57,599 Speaker 1: get the guy they want after Joe Burrow. That's where 1758 01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:02,840 Speaker 1: it starts with Detroit. Yephi, that's coming up next, Tony Pauline. 1759 01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:04,680 Speaker 1: We'll take a break here and we're back with more 1760 01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 1: one Bills Live presented by Kalaida Health.

Increased offerings from the books and 1785 01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:30,000 Speaker 1: the growth of the US betting market, on top of 1786 01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:32,600 Speaker 1: the fact that there's limited live sports, are fueling what 1787 01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:35,720 Speaker 1: is expected to be the most heavily bet NFL draft ever. 1788 01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 1: New England Patriots have changed their primary uniform, the first 1789 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 1: change in twenty years.

Pro Football Network's NFL Draft Analysts host 1803 01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:26,600 Speaker 1: of the Draft Insiders podcast, Tony Pauline, is on the 1804 01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:28,920 Speaker 1: line with us about Tony. Thanks coming out with us. 1805 01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:32,400 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me again. Yeah. Thanks. I hope everybody's 1806 01:34:32,439 --> 01:34:35,040 Speaker 1: healthy and happy and we're all getting through at getting 1807 01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:37,960 Speaker 1: ready for this draft this year, right, healthy so far? 1808 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know about the happy part. Yeah, I hear you. 1809 01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:45,599 Speaker 1: What do you make of the early reports and they're 1810 01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:49,000 Speaker 1: just tweets from the first mock draft test today at 1811 01:34:49,040 --> 01:34:52,240 Speaker 1: one o'clock about some communication issues. Apparently it's settled down. 1812 01:34:52,520 --> 01:34:54,400 Speaker 1: You have written that some gms are going to have 1813 01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:57,559 Speaker 1: trouble with this. You weren't necessarily talking about the technical side, 1814 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:01,160 Speaker 1: but some teams may have trouble with this different setup. Yeah, 1815 01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:03,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure the technical or at least I 1816 01:35:03,439 --> 01:35:07,280 Speaker 1: hope the technical glitches get ironed out. But you know, 1817 01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:10,479 Speaker 1: as I reported weeks ago, when there was a lot 1818 01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:13,200 Speaker 1: of noise being made, people saying let's push the draft back, 1819 01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:16,960 Speaker 1: a lot of the general managers who came up through 1820 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:20,639 Speaker 1: the executive ranks are a little bit concerned because those 1821 01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:22,960 Speaker 1: are the guys people who creatures have habit. Those are 1822 01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:25,519 Speaker 1: the guys who you know, are used to being in 1823 01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,719 Speaker 1: the war room and need the scouts around them, need 1824 01:35:28,760 --> 01:35:31,839 Speaker 1: the directors of player personnel, the directors of college scouting 1825 01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:35,200 Speaker 1: around them to feed them information, as opposed to the 1826 01:35:35,240 --> 01:35:38,960 Speaker 1: general managers who came up through the scouting ranks, who 1827 01:35:39,080 --> 01:35:43,880 Speaker 1: basically feel that they can do run the entire draft 1828 01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:48,160 Speaker 1: by themselves and in many instances aren't all that upset 1829 01:35:48,200 --> 01:35:51,360 Speaker 1: about the way it's gonna go down because they're not 1830 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:54,360 Speaker 1: going to have a coach Barkin in their ear in 1831 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:56,280 Speaker 1: the war room saying, you know, we've got to take 1832 01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:59,799 Speaker 1: this player. We've got to do that, as opposed to 1833 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, uh, they can make the decisions on their 1834 01:36:03,800 --> 01:36:07,320 Speaker 1: own with not a lot of disruption. Well, you know, 1835 01:36:07,360 --> 01:36:09,680 Speaker 1: and draft is so crucial for these teams in the 1836 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:12,240 Speaker 1: way they build, and these draft picks are so valuable. 1837 01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:15,320 Speaker 1: How I mean, we've all seen it could crash and 1838 01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:18,360 Speaker 1: burn for a team who doesn't handle it. Well, do 1839 01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:21,439 Speaker 1: you anticipate you know, going better for the teams with 1840 01:36:21,560 --> 01:36:25,200 Speaker 1: drafting gems rather than executive gems or um, you know, 1841 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:28,040 Speaker 1: the guys who didn't grow up through the football side 1842 01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:30,120 Speaker 1: of the organizations. Do you could you see a team 1843 01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 1: completely dropping the ball and all of a sudden, you know, 1844 01:36:33,560 --> 01:36:36,680 Speaker 1: coming away from this draft with less than what they 1845 01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 1: should have. I think the teams that are front office 1846 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 1: heavy with guys that came through the scouting ranks, guys 1847 01:36:45,320 --> 01:36:49,560 Speaker 1: that have extensive scouting experience, are at a decided advantage 1848 01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:52,679 Speaker 1: as opposed to those who don't. Now, you know, could 1849 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:55,160 Speaker 1: a team drop the ball? I mean every draft there 1850 01:36:55,160 --> 01:36:58,680 Speaker 1: are teams from franchises, it, teams on and on and 1851 01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 1: on that continually dropped the all, you know, just because 1852 01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:04,519 Speaker 1: they may draft the right guys, but they don't develop 1853 01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:07,320 Speaker 1: them properly on the field. But I absolutely think that 1854 01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 1: the front offices, especially that have scouting heavy people running 1855 01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:16,599 Speaker 1: the show and the general managers, have an advantage Thursday, 1856 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:19,519 Speaker 1: Friday and Saturday. Which makes me look at the Bills 1857 01:37:19,640 --> 01:37:23,320 Speaker 1: roster of player personnel, people like Joe Shane and Malik 1858 01:37:23,400 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 1: Boyd and Brian Lake Dawson, Dennis Hikey, former general manager 1859 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:31,160 Speaker 1: of the Bills. Somebody on our show last week called 1860 01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:33,519 Speaker 1: the Bill scouting staff and all start scouting staff. Is 1861 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:36,680 Speaker 1: that is that overstatement? What do you think Tony, Well, no, 1862 01:37:36,760 --> 01:37:38,479 Speaker 1: they've done a good job. I mean they've turned it. 1863 01:37:38,640 --> 01:37:41,240 Speaker 1: They turned it around very quickly in a short period 1864 01:37:41,280 --> 01:37:44,360 Speaker 1: of time. So everything, you know, it's pointing north for 1865 01:37:44,400 --> 01:37:46,720 Speaker 1: the franchise. So I think there's a good reason to 1866 01:37:46,720 --> 01:37:50,000 Speaker 1: be optimistic about you know, the upcoming draft and how 1867 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:55,599 Speaker 1: the Bills were running. What do you think the connections are? 1868 01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:59,320 Speaker 1: You know wild because we're trying to predict what the 1869 01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:02,800 Speaker 1: Bills might do a pick number fifty four, and once 1870 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:05,640 Speaker 1: you get outside the top four or five, everything is 1871 01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:07,360 Speaker 1: a roll of the dice. Where do you think? And 1872 01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:11,840 Speaker 1: we asked our Bills inside er last segment about what 1873 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:15,880 Speaker 1: positions are Is there no talent in this draft so 1874 01:38:15,920 --> 01:38:18,479 Speaker 1: that the players who play that position might get picked 1875 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:21,960 Speaker 1: too high, meaning quality players fall out of that first 1876 01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:23,960 Speaker 1: round into the second round that kind of thing. Are 1877 01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:26,920 Speaker 1: there positions that don't have any depth and don't have 1878 01:38:26,960 --> 01:38:30,360 Speaker 1: any viable starters or very few of them to say 1879 01:38:30,360 --> 01:38:33,680 Speaker 1: the least. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the 1880 01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 1: safety class. You're not going to see any safeties come 1881 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:40,160 Speaker 1: off the board until the second round. I think the 1882 01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:43,519 Speaker 1: tight end class leaves a lot to be desired. Your 1883 01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:46,000 Speaker 1: first tight end may not come off the board until 1884 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:49,720 Speaker 1: late second early third round. I think it's really a 1885 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 1: very poor guard crop. Pure guard crop. Your first guard 1886 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:57,599 Speaker 1: may not be selected in the draft of the third round. 1887 01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:01,040 Speaker 1: You may have some centers who project to guard, who 1888 01:39:01,080 --> 01:39:04,679 Speaker 1: teams project to guard, like say Matt Hennessy of Temple, 1889 01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:07,320 Speaker 1: who could go a little bit earlier. But I think 1890 01:39:07,320 --> 01:39:11,639 Speaker 1: when you look at those three positions tight end, guard, safety, 1891 01:39:12,479 --> 01:39:14,840 Speaker 1: you're not you're looking at no first round theres you're 1892 01:39:14,880 --> 01:39:17,280 Speaker 1: looking at second round. There's potential late second round. There's 1893 01:39:17,280 --> 01:39:20,320 Speaker 1: even third rounds before the top players at those positions 1894 01:39:20,320 --> 01:39:23,840 Speaker 1: come off the board. Tony Pauline, Pro Football Network, NFL 1895 01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:26,320 Speaker 1: Draft analysts, Tony, I want to get your thoughts on 1896 01:39:26,360 --> 01:39:28,200 Speaker 1: the first round there and the Bills aren't involved in 1897 01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:30,360 Speaker 1: the first round, but I have one more Bills question 1898 01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,759 Speaker 1: for you, based on what they've done in free agency, 1899 01:39:32,800 --> 01:39:35,360 Speaker 1: in your mind, what are the bills biggest draft need 1900 01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:39,640 Speaker 1: going into this weekend. I think they could always use 1901 01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:44,320 Speaker 1: some offensive mind help. I think obviously, you know, despite 1902 01:39:44,360 --> 01:39:47,719 Speaker 1: the fact they signed Mario Addison, I think edge rusher 1903 01:39:48,439 --> 01:39:50,240 Speaker 1: is something that they've got to look at, and they 1904 01:39:50,240 --> 01:39:54,080 Speaker 1: could potentially get lated and round two, I think that 1905 01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:56,400 Speaker 1: they need to add to the stable of running backs, 1906 01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:01,000 Speaker 1: you know, just add some players behind Devin Singletary and 1907 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:04,760 Speaker 1: t J. Yelden, especially behind single Arry. So I think 1908 01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 1: those are three areas where they can look and honestly, 1909 01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:11,639 Speaker 1: I think they'll be should be a running back there. 1910 01:40:11,680 --> 01:40:13,599 Speaker 1: I think there will be some pass rushers there for them. 1911 01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:16,720 Speaker 1: The bottom around two. You know, one of the things 1912 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:20,280 Speaker 1: that Bills have been targeted with is not just offensive line, 1913 01:40:20,320 --> 01:40:23,599 Speaker 1: but also wide receiver until they traded for Stefon Diggs. 1914 01:40:23,760 --> 01:40:27,240 Speaker 1: Murph and I watched Chase Claypool run at the combine. 1915 01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:30,240 Speaker 1: He's a big, tall, wide receiver, big body, wide receiver 1916 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:34,080 Speaker 1: who snapped off a really fast forty time at the combine. 1917 01:40:34,120 --> 01:40:36,640 Speaker 1: But yet there's some teams who are looking at him, 1918 01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:38,760 Speaker 1: and is what I'm reading, They're looking at him as 1919 01:40:38,800 --> 01:40:42,320 Speaker 1: a tight end, maybe switching him positions. Why is that? Yeah, 1920 01:40:42,360 --> 01:40:46,120 Speaker 1: I reported that more than a week ago on my podcast. 1921 01:40:46,520 --> 01:40:48,840 Speaker 1: But there are some teams that might Chase Claypool at 1922 01:40:48,880 --> 01:40:52,080 Speaker 1: tight end. They not only rate have him on the 1923 01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:53,960 Speaker 1: tight end boards, they have him as the number one 1924 01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:55,880 Speaker 1: tight end who could come off the board in the 1925 01:40:55,920 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 1: middle of a round. The two Now, there's a couple 1926 01:40:58,320 --> 01:41:00,200 Speaker 1: of reasons for that number. One, it came into mind, 1927 01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:02,599 Speaker 1: it was two hundred and thirty eight pounds. It's playing 1928 01:41:02,640 --> 01:41:05,880 Speaker 1: right is probably more in the low two thirty range. 1929 01:41:06,040 --> 01:41:09,639 Speaker 1: But still, when you're that big, even though you run 1930 01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:12,679 Speaker 1: a fast forty, sometimes it's tough to separate through routes. 1931 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:14,680 Speaker 1: Sometimes you know, you don't have the quickness of the 1932 01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:17,960 Speaker 1: athleticism to run the routes and to separate through your routes, 1933 01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:20,160 Speaker 1: and you've got to find ways to separate on Sunday 1934 01:41:20,520 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 1: rather than just beat down opponents to come away with 1935 01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:25,320 Speaker 1: the reception as you did on Saturday. I think also 1936 01:41:25,560 --> 01:41:27,840 Speaker 1: he kind of fits the mold on what teams want 1937 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,320 Speaker 1: to tie end these days. The bigger bodied guys who 1938 01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:32,840 Speaker 1: could split the scene, get down the secondary in the 1939 01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:36,280 Speaker 1: middle of the field and basically create mismatches in the 1940 01:41:36,280 --> 01:41:38,600 Speaker 1: secondary and get up and come away, you know, with 1941 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:41,160 Speaker 1: the tough grab. So I think, all things consider, I 1942 01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:44,160 Speaker 1: think it's a situation where you know, if you if 1943 01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:48,920 Speaker 1: you draft Chase Claypool, you create an offensive mind you coach, 1944 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:51,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna line them up all over the place. They'll 1945 01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,519 Speaker 1: line him up on the flanks on occasion, they'll line 1946 01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 1: him up in the slot. Maybe you'll line him up 1947 01:41:55,520 --> 01:41:57,920 Speaker 1: in the backfield on occasion and send him out in motion. 1948 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:00,479 Speaker 1: He's that good of an athlete. It's just a matter 1949 01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:04,240 Speaker 1: of developing him into a football player. NFL Draft analyst 1950 01:42:04,320 --> 01:42:06,840 Speaker 1: Tony Pauline and Pro Football Network on the land with us. Tony, 1951 01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:08,920 Speaker 1: Let's let's talk about the first round a little bit. 1952 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:12,120 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow expected to go first overall to Cincinnati. That's 1953 01:42:12,160 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 1: almost a you know, a foregone conclusion. And yet as 1954 01:42:15,479 --> 01:42:19,960 Speaker 1: far as quarterback rankings, you put to a Tago Viola 1955 01:42:20,040 --> 01:42:23,000 Speaker 1: ahead of Joe Burrow, Right, you think, I'm sure there's 1956 01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:25,719 Speaker 1: health involved here, But if if Twa were healthy, he'd 1957 01:42:25,720 --> 01:42:27,800 Speaker 1: probably be ranked ahead of Joe Burrows. Ever, what you're 1958 01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:30,320 Speaker 1: thinking far and away, I mean, in my mind, it's 1959 01:42:30,320 --> 01:42:33,200 Speaker 1: not not even close. I mean, listen, Burrow had a 1960 01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:36,000 Speaker 1: great year last season. The brighter the light shine, the 1961 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:39,280 Speaker 1: better he played, and he deserves credit for that. I 1962 01:42:39,360 --> 01:42:41,679 Speaker 1: like his machi, like his confidence. But he only really 1963 01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:44,040 Speaker 1: did it for one year, where two a Tagliola I 1964 01:42:44,040 --> 01:42:47,360 Speaker 1: think is a better overall passer. He's done it for 1965 01:42:47,400 --> 01:42:50,720 Speaker 1: a longer time. I mean, he was a terrific quarterback 1966 01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 1: from the time he stepped on the field as a freshman. 1967 01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:57,639 Speaker 1: The only thing that interrupted his play worthy injuries, which 1968 01:42:57,720 --> 01:42:59,639 Speaker 1: is an issue that's going to have to be looked into. 1969 01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,080 Speaker 1: But I think from a pure just from the point 1970 01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:07,280 Speaker 1: of a passer point of view, downfield accuracy, really the 1971 01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:12,679 Speaker 1: body of work, I think two is rate significantly higher 1972 01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:16,040 Speaker 1: than Joe Burrow. Obviously, the question with two are the 1973 01:43:16,080 --> 01:43:19,240 Speaker 1: injuries well, and how do you think those will be viewed. 1974 01:43:20,920 --> 01:43:23,759 Speaker 1: It's not gonna be viewed the same across the league 1975 01:43:23,760 --> 01:43:27,080 Speaker 1: because you know, different teams have different opinions and the 1976 01:43:27,120 --> 01:43:31,840 Speaker 1: medical statts look at the look at the medicals differently. Um. 1977 01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:34,320 Speaker 1: You know, obviously there are some teams that are gonna 1978 01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:36,840 Speaker 1: fail them. There's some teams that are gonna red flag him, 1979 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:38,920 Speaker 1: and there are some teams that are gonna be okay 1980 01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:41,080 Speaker 1: with it. What will happen is is with two of 1981 01:43:41,160 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 1: you've got to look at what point in the draft 1982 01:43:43,760 --> 01:43:47,439 Speaker 1: does the reward outweigh the risk. Does the reward of 1983 01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:52,360 Speaker 1: having a potential quarterback like to outweigh the risk of 1984 01:43:52,360 --> 01:43:55,040 Speaker 1: his injuries? And a lot of times or more times 1985 01:43:55,040 --> 01:43:57,080 Speaker 1: than not, what teams are looking at is they're not 1986 01:43:57,120 --> 01:43:59,439 Speaker 1: looking at they're looking at the immediate health, but they're 1987 01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:01,920 Speaker 1: also looking at the long term range health. You know, 1988 01:44:02,120 --> 01:44:03,920 Speaker 1: is he going to be a guy that we're going 1989 01:44:03,960 --> 01:44:06,280 Speaker 1: to be able to sign to a second contract If 1990 01:44:06,320 --> 01:44:09,280 Speaker 1: teams come away medical staffs come away convinced that no, 1991 01:44:09,400 --> 01:44:11,880 Speaker 1: he's not. This guy's always gonna break down. They're gonna 1992 01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:13,880 Speaker 1: they're gonna flag him, they're gonna fail him and take 1993 01:44:13,920 --> 01:44:15,640 Speaker 1: him off the board. But again, when you're looking at 1994 01:44:15,680 --> 01:44:18,120 Speaker 1: a quarterback, when you're looking at a real good quarterback 1995 01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:21,519 Speaker 1: with TWA, you've got to decide when the reward is 1996 01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:25,439 Speaker 1: much greater than the risk. The Dolphins and the Chargers 1997 01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 1: two quarterback and needy teams pick fifth and six in 1998 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:29,880 Speaker 1: the first round. Do you expect to it to get 1999 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:33,680 Speaker 1: past that? No, I don't. I if the Dolphins don't 2000 01:44:33,720 --> 01:44:35,679 Speaker 1: take him, and they may not. The Dolphins got multiple 2001 01:44:35,680 --> 01:44:39,240 Speaker 1: first round picks. They like Jordan Love. They could bypass 2002 01:44:39,280 --> 01:44:42,320 Speaker 1: a quarterback at selection number five and then take a 2003 01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:47,360 Speaker 1: position player. I think Chargers would, you know, take him 2004 01:44:47,479 --> 01:44:50,160 Speaker 1: at number six for a variety of reasons. You know, 2005 01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:53,840 Speaker 1: they need a quarterback after losing Philip Rivers. They're a 2006 01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:57,759 Speaker 1: team that struggles to draw up people into the seats, 2007 01:44:58,439 --> 01:45:01,519 Speaker 1: and you know it fits in with a dynamic player 2008 01:45:01,560 --> 01:45:03,960 Speaker 1: who if you can keep them healthy, all of a 2009 01:45:03,960 --> 01:45:07,960 Speaker 1: sudden you build some fan interests there. What about how 2010 01:45:08,040 --> 01:45:11,120 Speaker 1: much do you anticipate they're being shuffling around in that 2011 01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:14,760 Speaker 1: top ten top ten? I don't think there's going to 2012 01:45:14,840 --> 01:45:18,360 Speaker 1: be too much. Maybe we see you know, I wouldn't 2013 01:45:18,840 --> 01:45:21,960 Speaker 1: project more than one or two trades at most. I 2014 01:45:22,040 --> 01:45:25,320 Speaker 1: think there will be movements in the first round. I 2015 01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:27,720 Speaker 1: think because of the situation, what's going to happen is 2016 01:45:28,720 --> 01:45:30,640 Speaker 1: you're not going to see as many trades on the 2017 01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:34,320 Speaker 1: last day of the draft as we usually do, primarily 2018 01:45:34,360 --> 01:45:39,439 Speaker 1: because of the fact that no teams in the war rooms. 2019 01:45:39,800 --> 01:45:41,760 Speaker 1: The communication is going to be a little bit. If 2020 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:43,960 Speaker 1: it's not more difficult, it's going to be different than 2021 01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:46,640 Speaker 1: it has been in the past. Plus the fact you 2022 01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:51,320 Speaker 1: only got five minutes on the clock. Tony Pauline, host 2023 01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:54,880 Speaker 1: of the Draft Insider's podcast Pro Football Never Can a 2024 01:45:54,880 --> 01:45:58,240 Speaker 1: failed draft. Analysts, it is considered a very strong draft 2025 01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:02,240 Speaker 1: for wide receivers. Tony, how many go in the first round? Six? Seven? More? 2026 01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:06,920 Speaker 1: What do you think? You know? I've got five receivers 2027 01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:09,439 Speaker 1: with first round grades. But if you're if you read 2028 01:46:09,479 --> 01:46:13,040 Speaker 1: my story this morning, there were the vast majority of 2029 01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:18,000 Speaker 1: teams from pick number eighteen on are stating that receiver 2030 01:46:18,360 --> 01:46:21,160 Speaker 1: is a position that they're going to look for in 2031 01:46:21,200 --> 01:46:23,960 Speaker 1: the first round. So even though I personally have five 2032 01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:27,280 Speaker 1: receivers with first round grades, you could see more. You 2033 01:46:27,280 --> 01:46:30,000 Speaker 1: could see six or seven receivers because there are so 2034 01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:32,280 Speaker 1: many teams late in round one that are going to 2035 01:46:32,320 --> 01:46:35,080 Speaker 1: be looking for a receiver and may reach for some 2036 01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:38,320 Speaker 1: of the guys that have second round grades. Well about 2037 01:46:38,720 --> 01:46:41,960 Speaker 1: go ahead, see what about when you talk about that, 2038 01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:45,000 Speaker 1: it's like from the eighteenth picked down and say there 2039 01:46:45,080 --> 01:46:47,800 Speaker 1: is a run on wide receiver, what position group gets 2040 01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:50,799 Speaker 1: pushed to the top of the second which which talent 2041 01:46:50,920 --> 01:46:54,240 Speaker 1: group falls to the early first half of the second 2042 01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:58,680 Speaker 1: round and with first ground first round grades. Yeah, it's 2043 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:00,960 Speaker 1: a good question. Good question. Should I think it could 2044 01:47:01,040 --> 01:47:05,080 Speaker 1: be your defensive ends, some of your second tier pass rushers. 2045 01:47:05,439 --> 01:47:08,519 Speaker 1: There's some talk that aj Epeness of Iowa could fall 2046 01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:10,880 Speaker 1: him in the second round because he didn't test that well. 2047 01:47:11,240 --> 01:47:13,800 Speaker 1: Your tear gross Maados, the pass rusher from Penn State, 2048 01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:17,840 Speaker 1: didn't test at all. And he's a guy who's a 2049 01:47:17,920 --> 01:47:21,799 Speaker 1: late first round there. So I think the defensive end class, 2050 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:25,000 Speaker 1: which really or a pass rusher class, however you like 2051 01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:28,240 Speaker 1: to call it these days, which really falls off a 2052 01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:32,960 Speaker 1: cliff after Chase Young. That's the position that you could 2053 01:47:32,960 --> 01:47:36,600 Speaker 1: see guys fall in the second round if there is 2054 01:47:36,640 --> 01:47:39,880 Speaker 1: a run on receivers late in round one. Hey, Tony, 2055 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:44,000 Speaker 1: who's the better cornerback prospects? C J. Henderson, Well, I 2056 01:47:44,080 --> 01:47:47,880 Speaker 1: believe you've said is better or a Kuda? Who who's 2057 01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:50,200 Speaker 1: better and who would go earlier in this draft? You think, well, no, 2058 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:52,680 Speaker 1: I've got a Kuda. I've always had a Cuda rated 2059 01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:55,680 Speaker 1: ahead of C. J. Henderson. What I said is is 2060 01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:58,360 Speaker 1: teams are liking more Henderson more and more, and he 2061 01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:02,120 Speaker 1: could be selected much higher, and then people are initially 2062 01:48:02,160 --> 01:48:07,400 Speaker 1: projecting potentially in the top twelve. I think Acuda is 2063 01:48:07,400 --> 01:48:09,920 Speaker 1: a good athlete. He's got excellent size. I think he's 2064 01:48:09,920 --> 01:48:13,280 Speaker 1: got terrific ball skills. Just has to become more of 2065 01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:16,360 Speaker 1: a secure tackler. I think with CJ. Henderson you could 2066 01:48:16,360 --> 01:48:18,840 Speaker 1: say he's a little more explosive than the Kuda. His 2067 01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:21,000 Speaker 1: ball skills aren't refined. And what I mean by that 2068 01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:23,960 Speaker 1: is Acuda is a cornerback, a college cornerback who does 2069 01:48:23,960 --> 01:48:26,120 Speaker 1: a good job making plays with his back to the ball. 2070 01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:29,599 Speaker 1: Where CJ. Henderson struggles to get his head back around 2071 01:48:29,600 --> 01:48:31,360 Speaker 1: the times, is Lake getting his head back around the 2072 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:33,760 Speaker 1: times and does a bit of face guarding, which is 2073 01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:36,759 Speaker 1: can be a red flag. Now, teams look at Henderson, 2074 01:48:36,800 --> 01:48:38,240 Speaker 1: they look at his size and his speed and his 2075 01:48:38,360 --> 01:48:42,519 Speaker 1: upside potential, and football coaches do exactly that. They coach football, 2076 01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:44,600 Speaker 1: So they say, you know what, We're going to coach c. J. 2077 01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:46,960 Speaker 1: Henderson and teach him to make plays with his back 2078 01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:50,360 Speaker 1: to the ball. If teams like San Francisco with two 2079 01:48:50,439 --> 01:48:53,120 Speaker 1: first rounders, the Miami Dolphins with three first rounders, if 2080 01:48:53,160 --> 01:48:56,360 Speaker 1: they wanted to parlay those picks and drop down into 2081 01:48:56,360 --> 01:48:59,439 Speaker 1: this draft, what are the teams most likely to deal 2082 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:02,960 Speaker 1: with moving up and what kind of cult what kind 2083 01:49:02,960 --> 01:49:04,880 Speaker 1: of assets would it take to get a couple of 2084 01:49:04,880 --> 01:49:07,759 Speaker 1: those picks, or how many multiple teams could be affected 2085 01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:10,719 Speaker 1: by that. Yeah, I mean, that's that's kind of a question. 2086 01:49:10,760 --> 01:49:12,760 Speaker 1: That's that's tough to answer. I will tell you this, 2087 01:49:12,840 --> 01:49:15,240 Speaker 1: The Niners, as a reporter last week, want to move 2088 01:49:15,760 --> 01:49:18,200 Speaker 1: those picks, especially the thirty first pick out of the 2089 01:49:18,240 --> 01:49:22,479 Speaker 1: first round with Miami. I think it depends. They may 2090 01:49:22,560 --> 01:49:26,280 Speaker 1: actually be more apt to move up if they don't 2091 01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:28,200 Speaker 1: take a quarterback at five. If they take it an 2092 01:49:28,200 --> 01:49:30,920 Speaker 1: offensive lineman like Andrew Thomas of George at five, I 2093 01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:32,760 Speaker 1: think they may be more apt to move up with 2094 01:49:32,800 --> 01:49:37,640 Speaker 1: that second picking round one to secure or maneuver to 2095 01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:41,320 Speaker 1: get a quarterback like Jordan Love. I think the Cleveland 2096 01:49:41,320 --> 01:49:44,880 Speaker 1: Browns would take that. You know, it's all it's like 2097 01:49:44,920 --> 01:49:47,680 Speaker 1: the stock market, you know, it's all supplying demand. It 2098 01:49:47,760 --> 01:49:50,640 Speaker 1: depends on you know, how badly a team wants to 2099 01:49:50,680 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 1: move up. Excuse me, how badly a team wants to 2100 01:49:52,840 --> 01:49:55,800 Speaker 1: move down, and the market for it. So really at 2101 01:49:55,800 --> 01:49:58,840 Speaker 1: this point in time, to be honest with you, if 2102 01:49:58,920 --> 01:50:02,400 Speaker 1: Miami takes a position player rather than a quarterback at five, 2103 01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:05,320 Speaker 1: I think you could see some moving in Jocelyn up 2104 01:50:06,040 --> 01:50:10,519 Speaker 1: to secure the next quarterback off the board. Otherwise, you know, 2105 01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:12,320 Speaker 1: I don't think there'd be a big market to move 2106 01:50:12,400 --> 01:50:16,639 Speaker 1: up board down. With Tony Pauline, Pro Football Networks NFL 2107 01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:19,200 Speaker 1: Draft analyst, Tony my producer, was telling me how much 2108 01:50:19,200 --> 01:50:22,720 Speaker 1: funn he had with Pro Football Networks mock draft simulator. 2109 01:50:22,760 --> 01:50:25,000 Speaker 1: How does that work? What do you guys got there. Well, 2110 01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:27,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I actually haven't tried it yet because 2111 01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,640 Speaker 1: I've been too busy working the phones and getting information 2112 01:50:29,680 --> 01:50:32,479 Speaker 1: and talking to guys like you doing interviews. I will 2113 01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:34,919 Speaker 1: tell you this though. You know, I'm glad your producers 2114 01:50:34,960 --> 01:50:37,920 Speaker 1: said that because that mock draft simulator has been getting 2115 01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:41,920 Speaker 1: glowing reviews. And I know people are addicted to that thing. 2116 01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:44,120 Speaker 1: You know, it's like Facebook or Twitter when they can't 2117 01:50:44,160 --> 01:50:47,800 Speaker 1: get off of it. And you know, you only got 2118 01:50:47,840 --> 01:50:49,720 Speaker 1: a couple of days left to do your your mock 2119 01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:53,400 Speaker 1: draft simulations. I'm sure eventually I will be able to 2120 01:50:53,439 --> 01:50:54,960 Speaker 1: get into it. But with all the reports and the 2121 01:50:55,040 --> 01:50:57,880 Speaker 1: news and everything else, I've I've read the reviews, but 2122 01:50:57,920 --> 01:51:03,000 Speaker 1: I haven't I haven't taken I haven't taken part in it. Yeah, 2123 01:51:03,080 --> 01:51:05,400 Speaker 1: and for just it's just one of those things where 2124 01:51:05,520 --> 01:51:08,599 Speaker 1: you start plugging draft picks in and it changes everything 2125 01:51:08,640 --> 01:51:11,640 Speaker 1: behind it, correct. I mean it's pretty fun. Yeah, you 2126 01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:14,320 Speaker 1: can make trades and all kinds of things like that. 2127 01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:17,760 Speaker 1: You basically can be your own little general manager and 2128 01:51:18,080 --> 01:51:21,479 Speaker 1: run your own team and you know, figure things out. 2129 01:51:21,560 --> 01:51:25,880 Speaker 1: And like you said, it'll throw some curveballs at you 2130 01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:29,960 Speaker 1: because you may be wanting to take a player if 2131 01:51:29,960 --> 01:51:32,240 Speaker 1: you have multiple first round picks, and then before you 2132 01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:35,000 Speaker 1: know it's another team scoots that player up. So it's 2133 01:51:35,120 --> 01:51:38,680 Speaker 1: actually like being in a real war room where you 2134 01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:41,120 Speaker 1: covered a player and you hope a player forced you 2135 01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:43,479 Speaker 1: and then lo and behold that players off the board. 2136 01:51:43,479 --> 01:51:47,760 Speaker 1: And you've got to readjust Tony Pauline, our guests Pro 2137 01:51:47,800 --> 01:51:51,400 Speaker 1: Football Network's NFL Draft analysts the draft days away. But Tony, 2138 01:51:51,479 --> 01:51:54,559 Speaker 1: you have recently written about one of the really big names, 2139 01:51:54,560 --> 01:51:57,400 Speaker 1: a prominent name, a free agent who still is available, 2140 01:51:57,600 --> 01:52:00,439 Speaker 1: Jadeveon Clowney. You think you may have heard the reason 2141 01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:03,719 Speaker 1: why that still might be the case. Huh, As I said, 2142 01:52:03,920 --> 01:52:07,080 Speaker 1: you know all the information I've received that Jadavion Clowney 2143 01:52:07,080 --> 01:52:10,599 Speaker 1: has been his own worst enemy throughout this process. He 2144 01:52:10,680 --> 01:52:14,720 Speaker 1: was asking for huge amounts of money. The Seattle Seahawks, 2145 01:52:15,080 --> 01:52:16,920 Speaker 1: you know, wanted to reach out to him about talking 2146 01:52:16,960 --> 01:52:19,360 Speaker 1: to him, talk and talk to him about coming back. 2147 01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:23,439 Speaker 1: He was uncooperative. There there were concerns that if he 2148 01:52:23,520 --> 01:52:26,839 Speaker 1: signs a huge contract, he may pull up mohabbed Wolkerson 2149 01:52:26,880 --> 01:52:28,880 Speaker 1: in a sense that he's just gonna basically sit back 2150 01:52:28,880 --> 01:52:31,640 Speaker 1: on his laurels and I think the whole issue with 2151 01:52:31,760 --> 01:52:35,479 Speaker 1: the coronavirus has really hurt him because, you know, Dave 2152 01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:37,559 Speaker 1: and Clowney is a guy that's had injuries in the past, 2153 01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:41,280 Speaker 1: and before you're shelling out, you know, multimillion dollars a 2154 01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:43,160 Speaker 1: year to Davion Clowny, you're gonna want to give him 2155 01:52:43,200 --> 01:52:46,960 Speaker 1: a full physical. So it's obviously it's very tough to 2156 01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:50,160 Speaker 1: travel around these days unless the team that really wants him, 2157 01:52:50,160 --> 01:52:52,559 Speaker 1: the owner, sends out a private plane for him. But 2158 01:52:52,560 --> 01:52:56,040 Speaker 1: but I think that Davy and Clowney, you know, someone 2159 01:52:56,080 --> 01:52:57,800 Speaker 1: described who was close and said, you know, he's just 2160 01:52:57,840 --> 01:53:00,240 Speaker 1: a different kind of guy. At a time, he just 2161 01:53:00,280 --> 01:53:03,040 Speaker 1: seems to be his own worst enemy. And you know, 2162 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:06,920 Speaker 1: we'll see. I think maybe something happens on draft day 2163 01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:08,560 Speaker 1: for a team, or did they have to draft for 2164 01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:12,120 Speaker 1: a team that doesn't get the pass rusher they cover it. 2165 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:16,560 Speaker 1: I just think starting off with the salary demands of 2166 01:53:16,640 --> 01:53:19,679 Speaker 1: twenty million dollars a year, it just has not worked 2167 01:53:19,680 --> 01:53:22,479 Speaker 1: out well for him. What do you what do you 2168 01:53:22,520 --> 01:53:24,920 Speaker 1: think you think he'll sit out a year? Do you 2169 01:53:24,920 --> 01:53:26,840 Speaker 1: think he'll sign a one year proved deal? Do you 2170 01:53:27,120 --> 01:53:28,599 Speaker 1: you know, how do you think that's gonna work out 2171 01:53:28,640 --> 01:53:32,439 Speaker 1: for him because there's no question it's the top, an elite, 2172 01:53:32,720 --> 01:53:36,519 Speaker 1: physically gifted guy. But also we also know a lot 2173 01:53:36,560 --> 01:53:38,320 Speaker 1: about him because he's been in the league for a 2174 01:53:38,360 --> 01:53:42,240 Speaker 1: while now. Yeah, physically get the guy who's a pass rusher. 2175 01:53:42,360 --> 01:53:45,439 Speaker 1: So I think what will happen is is after the 2176 01:53:45,520 --> 01:53:47,680 Speaker 1: draft and everything else comes, I don't think he's going 2177 01:53:47,720 --> 01:53:49,439 Speaker 1: to sit out a year. I think he will play. 2178 01:53:49,520 --> 01:53:52,759 Speaker 1: I think he'll return to Texas. I'm sorry to the Houston. 2179 01:53:52,800 --> 01:53:55,280 Speaker 1: Texas is also not out of the question, you know. 2180 01:53:55,360 --> 01:53:58,120 Speaker 1: I think it's I think it'll be a situation where 2181 01:53:58,520 --> 01:54:02,000 Speaker 1: Clowney just got to face reality, which he will eventually do, 2182 01:54:02,600 --> 01:54:05,519 Speaker 1: you know, as we get closer to the season, hopefully, 2183 01:54:05,560 --> 01:54:09,719 Speaker 1: you know, when the season starts on time, hopefully, And 2184 01:54:10,040 --> 01:54:13,760 Speaker 1: I think eventually he'll sign with somebody, probably a top 2185 01:54:13,840 --> 01:54:19,120 Speaker 1: rated team, probably a coach who feels he can handle Clowney, 2186 01:54:19,360 --> 01:54:22,960 Speaker 1: and he'll be playing football this season. Hey, Tony, thanks 2187 01:54:22,960 --> 01:54:25,360 Speaker 1: for this. Have a great time this weekend covering the draft. 2188 01:54:26,000 --> 01:54:30,120 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me again, Fells, Thanks Tony. Tony Pauline, 2189 01:54:30,120 --> 01:54:34,120 Speaker 1: Pro Football Network's NFL Draft analysts. Also the Draft Insiders podcast. 2190 01:54:34,440 --> 01:54:37,839 Speaker 1: Some interesting stuff there. Seven especially. I feel like here 2191 01:54:37,840 --> 01:54:40,440 Speaker 1: on our show for a couple of weeks now, we've 2192 01:54:40,480 --> 01:54:44,160 Speaker 1: almost ignored what it's pretty interesting situation up at the top, 2193 01:54:44,360 --> 01:54:46,760 Speaker 1: you know ten maybe the first half of the first 2194 01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:50,400 Speaker 1: round with Tua. I mean that's a factor with quarterback 2195 01:54:50,480 --> 01:54:53,920 Speaker 1: needy teams, the Dolphins and the Chargers in particular. I 2196 01:54:54,000 --> 01:54:56,200 Speaker 1: just yeah, it's good to get kind of an NFL 2197 01:54:56,280 --> 01:54:58,920 Speaker 1: wide perspective from Tony on what's your just before we 2198 01:54:58,960 --> 01:55:01,760 Speaker 1: go to break, what's your gut feeling about Tuah? If 2199 01:55:01,800 --> 01:55:05,600 Speaker 1: you were drafting and he was there, do you how 2200 01:55:05,640 --> 01:55:08,320 Speaker 1: much do you give credence to the to the injuries. 2201 01:55:08,360 --> 01:55:11,240 Speaker 1: Does that make you pass on him? That's a tough call. 2202 01:55:11,360 --> 01:55:13,440 Speaker 1: And as you heard Tony say, if if he doesn't 2203 01:55:13,480 --> 01:55:16,200 Speaker 1: have that, if ta doesn't have the issue with the injuries, 2204 01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:19,080 Speaker 1: he is far and away a better prospect than Joe Burrow, 2205 01:55:19,200 --> 01:55:22,600 Speaker 1: like not even close. But the thing, it's a hip injury, right, 2206 01:55:22,640 --> 01:55:25,440 Speaker 1: I mean hips are funny, not funny, they're difficult. It's 2207 01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:29,520 Speaker 1: difficult to diagnose, I think, difficult to get better. Um, 2208 01:55:30,080 --> 01:55:32,920 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows. You've seen guys who have been 2209 01:55:33,120 --> 01:55:35,160 Speaker 1: banged up, and it's not just one injury either. With 2210 01:55:35,280 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 1: tah right. As Brownie pointed out, We've a couple of 2211 01:55:37,720 --> 01:55:40,520 Speaker 1: people told us it's three or four or five injuries. Uh, 2212 01:55:40,800 --> 01:55:43,560 Speaker 1: you know it'd be a tough guy. Look, if you 2213 01:55:43,720 --> 01:55:46,360 Speaker 1: draft two h and he gets hurt, you know in 2214 01:55:46,400 --> 01:55:49,720 Speaker 1: the first couple of years, everybody says it told you, 2215 01:55:49,760 --> 01:55:52,560 Speaker 1: So what are you thinking? You can see that? Right? Sure? 2216 01:55:52,680 --> 01:55:54,960 Speaker 1: But I think here's the question, the real question, Murph, 2217 01:55:55,040 --> 01:55:57,880 Speaker 1: is all these teams looking for quarterbacks and go down 2218 01:55:57,880 --> 01:56:00,160 Speaker 1: the list. I don't know, you know, whoever they are. 2219 01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:04,120 Speaker 1: Do you think none of them are going to be 2220 01:56:04,120 --> 01:56:05,920 Speaker 1: willing to take a chance on him, not even if 2221 01:56:05,920 --> 01:56:07,720 Speaker 1: they take a chance. They may feel good about his 2222 01:56:07,800 --> 01:56:10,480 Speaker 1: medical right and already sees it differently, do they do 2223 01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:12,640 Speaker 1: they put much credence into the you know, the rule 2224 01:56:12,680 --> 01:56:15,520 Speaker 1: of the dice that is for every player in the league, 2225 01:56:15,680 --> 01:56:17,680 Speaker 1: for whether he's gonna get hurt or not. I'm telling 2226 01:56:17,720 --> 01:56:22,520 Speaker 1: you this, those teams are gonna cast aside. I think 2227 01:56:22,520 --> 01:56:25,200 Speaker 1: there's gonna be somebody who says, listen, this guy, if 2228 01:56:25,200 --> 01:56:27,840 Speaker 1: he wouldn't had never been hurt, would be the guy 2229 01:56:27,880 --> 01:56:32,360 Speaker 1: above Joe Burrows, Burrows no matter what it happened. So 2230 01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:34,000 Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be at least one of those 2231 01:56:34,040 --> 01:56:37,280 Speaker 1: teams who will say, forget it, get him. The guy's great. 2232 01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:39,160 Speaker 1: And I think they'll be more than one of those 2233 01:56:39,160 --> 01:56:42,480 Speaker 1: teams that think that and making it even more difficult 2234 01:56:42,520 --> 01:56:44,960 Speaker 1: to do this year and say, you got a pretty 2235 01:56:44,960 --> 01:56:47,720 Speaker 1: good feeling about twa Okay, well you haven't had a 2236 01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:49,800 Speaker 1: chance to have your doctors look at him, right, wouldn't 2237 01:56:49,800 --> 01:56:52,000 Speaker 1: you want to if you want very really interested in 2238 01:56:52,080 --> 01:56:53,680 Speaker 1: them in a normal year. And I know this is 2239 01:56:53,760 --> 01:56:55,440 Speaker 1: a big picture of this and not that important, but 2240 01:56:55,440 --> 01:56:57,400 Speaker 1: you would want to bring him in and put him 2241 01:56:57,440 --> 01:56:59,880 Speaker 1: through extensive testing for his hip and all the other 2242 01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:02,320 Speaker 1: injuries he had, and been able to do that. It's 2243 01:57:02,360 --> 01:57:05,520 Speaker 1: kind of hard to see how that somebody couldn't say, oh, 2244 01:57:05,520 --> 01:57:08,200 Speaker 1: that's all right, we'll do it without a physical Oh okay, yeah, 2245 01:57:08,240 --> 01:57:11,280 Speaker 1: that's that's something that doesn't really happen very often in 2246 01:57:11,800 --> 01:57:16,800 Speaker 1: the NFL.

What's it all about, doctor Krapf, tell us 2273 01:58:35,280 --> 01:58:39,840 Speaker 1: give us a refresher course on how it works, please, Okay. So, um, 2274 01:58:40,440 --> 01:58:46,880 Speaker 1: it's an opportunity for adults to really take some simple 2275 01:58:47,280 --> 01:58:51,160 Speaker 1: steps to help improve their own personal health. So there's 2276 01:58:51,160 --> 01:58:54,640 Speaker 1: some simple things that you know, are encouraged people that do. 2277 01:58:56,640 --> 01:58:59,840 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, given the environment that we're in, 2278 01:59:00,200 --> 01:59:04,680 Speaker 1: we've made some adaptations to allow people to do these things, 2279 01:59:04,800 --> 01:59:07,240 Speaker 1: you know, in the comfort of their home or certainly 2280 01:59:07,280 --> 01:59:12,000 Speaker 1: while keeping their their distance from others. But relatively simple things, 2281 01:59:12,000 --> 01:59:15,320 Speaker 1: so drinking more water, the right kind of physical activity 2282 01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:19,360 Speaker 1: and nutrition that is going to be healthier for you 2283 01:59:19,440 --> 01:59:22,800 Speaker 1: in the short and the long run. So this is 2284 01:59:22,800 --> 01:59:25,720 Speaker 1: going to run from April twenty seventh through June seventh, 2285 01:59:26,440 --> 01:59:30,120 Speaker 1: So it's like a six week program. And you're talking 2286 01:59:30,160 --> 01:59:33,080 Speaker 1: about kind of challenging people to do stuff. And how 2287 01:59:33,480 --> 01:59:37,680 Speaker 1: how do you keep track of the exercise people do, 2288 01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:40,320 Speaker 1: the food they eat, the water they drink. How does 2289 01:59:40,320 --> 01:59:43,440 Speaker 1: this How does this work in in the accountability and 2290 01:59:43,480 --> 01:59:47,680 Speaker 1: people reporting their their improved lifestyle. Yeah, the people track 2291 01:59:47,760 --> 01:59:51,200 Speaker 1: it themselves because you know, it's on a trust basis, 2292 01:59:51,280 --> 01:59:53,640 Speaker 1: but you know, people generally do a really good job 2293 01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:57,919 Speaker 1: of that and then um, you know they can submit 2294 02:00:00,520 --> 02:00:04,440 Speaker 1: you know, online, but it's a trust system, and you know, 2295 02:00:04,640 --> 02:00:07,440 Speaker 1: it's been really incredible. I think at this point we're 2296 02:00:07,560 --> 02:00:11,760 Speaker 1: approaching thirty five thousand people who've engaged in the various 2297 02:00:11,760 --> 02:00:14,840 Speaker 1: cycles of this, so it just keeps building over time. 2298 02:00:14,880 --> 02:00:16,680 Speaker 1: And you know, one of the things that we love 2299 02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:19,720 Speaker 1: to see is that people are challenging their friends and 2300 02:00:19,720 --> 02:00:22,440 Speaker 1: their loved ones to engage and to take these steps. 2301 02:00:22,520 --> 02:00:24,840 Speaker 1: So it's it's a good way to kind of lift 2302 02:00:24,880 --> 02:00:27,000 Speaker 1: yourself up and lift others up at the same time. 2303 02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:30,280 Speaker 1: And Doctor Krupp, what's at stake here? There are daily 2304 02:00:30,320 --> 02:00:34,080 Speaker 1: prizes and then a grand prize, right tell us about that. Yeah, yeah, 2305 02:00:34,080 --> 02:00:36,800 Speaker 1: they're daily prizes and you know, even though it begins 2306 02:00:37,480 --> 02:00:42,680 Speaker 1: next Monday, if people preregister between now and then, there's 2307 02:00:42,680 --> 02:00:47,120 Speaker 1: some cool things like there's some home workout videos. I 2308 02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:52,080 Speaker 1: think Harrison Phillips has shared some of his experience and 2309 02:00:52,200 --> 02:00:57,920 Speaker 1: some regiments that people can take up, you know, under 2310 02:00:57,960 --> 02:01:02,160 Speaker 1: Harrison's guidance. There got some healthy recipes and special discounts 2311 02:01:02,160 --> 02:01:05,400 Speaker 1: that'll be available too. But then you know, as people participate, 2312 02:01:05,760 --> 02:01:11,160 Speaker 1: there are lots of great prizes and got autographed Bill's jerseys, 2313 02:01:12,040 --> 02:01:16,560 Speaker 1: VIP tickets to training camp, preseason tickets with on field passes, 2314 02:01:16,600 --> 02:01:23,400 Speaker 1: Billy Joel concert tickets, gift cards to Healthy Scratch fitness trackers, earbuds, 2315 02:01:23,920 --> 02:01:26,080 Speaker 1: so lots of great things that people can compete for. 2316 02:01:27,720 --> 02:01:30,600 Speaker 1: Do you think that because of where we're all out? 2317 02:01:30,600 --> 02:01:32,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Murph and I are sitting at home. We 2318 02:01:32,200 --> 02:01:34,400 Speaker 1: haven't been out of our own yards for weeks. So 2319 02:01:35,040 --> 02:01:40,080 Speaker 1: do you anticipate an uptick in participation because so many 2320 02:01:40,120 --> 02:01:42,960 Speaker 1: people are in position now to it may give them 2321 02:01:43,080 --> 02:01:45,520 Speaker 1: some incentive and maybe looking for something like this to do. 2322 02:01:45,520 --> 02:01:51,200 Speaker 1: Do you anticipate a greater level of participation? Perhaps? Yeah? Absolutely, 2323 02:01:51,240 --> 02:01:54,080 Speaker 1: I think people have been kind of pent up, as 2324 02:01:54,120 --> 02:01:56,560 Speaker 1: you say, and you know, hopefully this week and next 2325 02:01:56,600 --> 02:01:58,520 Speaker 1: week the weather is turning in the right way, So 2326 02:01:58,640 --> 02:02:01,200 Speaker 1: I would love to see what we're hoping to see, 2327 02:02:01,200 --> 02:02:04,640 Speaker 1: and that is an uptick um and the average number 2328 02:02:04,640 --> 02:02:07,600 Speaker 1: of participants that we've had in prior rounds. So yeah, 2329 02:02:07,680 --> 02:02:11,360 Speaker 1: for sure. It's the Independent Health Buffalo Bill's Health and 2330 02:02:11,480 --> 02:02:14,600 Speaker 1: Wellness Challenge. It's a six weeks broke, a six week program, 2331 02:02:14,800 --> 02:02:17,160 Speaker 1: Doctor Krab, How do people register they Where do they 2332 02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:21,360 Speaker 1: go to register for this? UM? I think you can 2333 02:02:21,520 --> 02:02:25,000 Speaker 1: actually go to UM the Independent Health website or the 2334 02:02:25,040 --> 02:02:29,840 Speaker 1: Bill's website to register UM. So I think that either 2335 02:02:29,880 --> 02:02:32,840 Speaker 1: one of them is a place where you can register UM, 2336 02:02:33,080 --> 02:02:36,000 Speaker 1: and I think UM. I don't have any more specifics 2337 02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:38,160 Speaker 1: beyond that, but I think both of our websites are 2338 02:02:38,160 --> 02:02:43,640 Speaker 1: pretty accessible and pretty easily navigated. So either place. One 2339 02:02:43,680 --> 02:02:46,280 Speaker 1: of the things we've seen if if they've participated before, 2340 02:02:46,320 --> 02:02:48,440 Speaker 1: all they gotta do is log in and they're participating, 2341 02:02:48,680 --> 02:02:51,120 Speaker 1: they are automatically enlisted again, and you're right just to 2342 02:02:51,160 --> 02:02:53,120 Speaker 1: go in. You can go to the Biffalo Bill's website 2343 02:02:53,560 --> 02:02:56,560 Speaker 1: and UH and jump right on board with it as well. 2344 02:02:56,600 --> 02:03:01,960 Speaker 1: There's UM. It really comes down to one more way 2345 02:03:02,000 --> 02:03:05,560 Speaker 1: to just get involved in, particularly if you're by yourself. 2346 02:03:06,120 --> 02:03:07,920 Speaker 1: And what it comes down to is a couple of things. 2347 02:03:07,960 --> 02:03:12,400 Speaker 1: Get twenty minutes of physical activity a day, fruits and vegetables, eat, eat, 2348 02:03:12,600 --> 02:03:17,200 Speaker 1: drink water. Is really pretty simple challenge and you just 2349 02:03:17,240 --> 02:03:21,360 Speaker 1: earn points, right and once you register, the more points 2350 02:03:21,360 --> 02:03:24,400 Speaker 1: you get, the better chance you have of winning exactly. 2351 02:03:25,560 --> 02:03:29,440 Speaker 1: And boy, we've had some great prizes in the past 2352 02:03:29,520 --> 02:03:32,480 Speaker 1: and some great prizes again this time. But you know, 2353 02:03:32,680 --> 02:03:34,480 Speaker 1: one of the one of the things that we've been 2354 02:03:35,280 --> 02:03:38,960 Speaker 1: sort of encouraging it Independent Health with our associates and 2355 02:03:39,040 --> 02:03:42,480 Speaker 1: our members, is not so much to the social distancing, 2356 02:03:43,240 --> 02:03:47,120 Speaker 1: but the concept of distance socializing. And you know, this 2357 02:03:47,200 --> 02:03:50,640 Speaker 1: kind of contest is absolutely a wonderful opportunity to kind 2358 02:03:50,680 --> 02:03:53,840 Speaker 1: of connect with friends and loved ones and you know, 2359 02:03:53,880 --> 02:03:57,360 Speaker 1: invite them to participate in the challenge as well. And 2360 02:03:57,480 --> 02:04:00,560 Speaker 1: that kind of opportunity to state connects did we think 2361 02:04:00,680 --> 02:04:04,720 Speaker 1: is so important? You know as we go through this phase, 2362 02:04:06,120 --> 02:04:08,800 Speaker 1: the idea that sting connected is going to help you 2363 02:04:08,880 --> 02:04:14,840 Speaker 1: emotionally and physically through this challenge.

Our Twitter poll today, who was 2375 02:04:48,880 --> 02:04:52,160 Speaker 1: the Bill's best second round draft picks since two thousand 2376 02:04:52,400 --> 02:04:55,080 Speaker 1: and why? On the Twitter poll eight hundred votes in 2377 02:04:55,120 --> 02:04:57,840 Speaker 1: and half of you say it is Aaron Schobel. Pretty 2378 02:04:57,880 --> 02:05:02,080 Speaker 1: realistic choice. I think. Twenty six percent say Robert Woods, 2379 02:05:02,360 --> 02:05:04,880 Speaker 1: which is a really good choice. Twenty one percent say 2380 02:05:04,880 --> 02:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Aaron Williams another good choice, six percent have somebody else 2381 02:05:07,960 --> 02:05:09,960 Speaker 1: in mind? Give us a call eight oh three five 2382 02:05:10,080 --> 02:05:13,480 Speaker 1: fifty toll free one eight eight eight five fifty two 2383 02:05:13,560 --> 02:05:15,680 Speaker 1: five fifty. Got a chance to get a few calls in. 2384 02:05:15,760 --> 02:05:18,120 Speaker 1: Maybe read a few more tweets from the tweet sheet 2385 02:05:18,280 --> 02:05:21,560 Speaker 1: brought to you by Corrigan Moving Systems, the official movers 2386 02:05:21,560 --> 02:05:25,919 Speaker 1: of the Buffalo Bills. Pat tweets in I loved Darren Williams, 2387 02:05:25,920 --> 02:05:28,480 Speaker 1: but his injury took away his career. Always think about 2388 02:05:28,520 --> 02:05:31,600 Speaker 1: what we could have been with him. And Woods is 2389 02:05:31,640 --> 02:05:34,240 Speaker 1: great now, but we did not use him correctly. He 2390 02:05:34,280 --> 02:05:38,680 Speaker 1: had much more to give here. Interesting, Yeah, I wonder 2391 02:05:38,720 --> 02:05:41,160 Speaker 1: how much more Aaron or Robert Woods had to give. 2392 02:05:41,240 --> 02:05:43,600 Speaker 1: I don't think he had a good quarterback really thrown 2393 02:05:43,680 --> 02:05:46,040 Speaker 1: him passes that didn't help out Robert Woods. I think, 2394 02:05:47,040 --> 02:05:49,160 Speaker 1: I think he's a really good player. He certainly has 2395 02:05:49,200 --> 02:05:51,360 Speaker 1: improved since he's been with the Rams, But I don't 2396 02:05:51,360 --> 02:05:54,320 Speaker 1: know if he's heading shoulders or it was used incorrectly. 2397 02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:56,520 Speaker 1: And they have a guy getting them the ball here, Steve, 2398 02:05:56,560 --> 02:05:59,200 Speaker 1: that's my tub. I've said it before. I mean wide 2399 02:05:59,200 --> 02:06:02,000 Speaker 1: receivers in the NFL. I think our products of the 2400 02:06:02,080 --> 02:06:06,320 Speaker 1: quality of the guy called pulling the trigger. Great receivers 2401 02:06:06,320 --> 02:06:12,160 Speaker 1: don't make quarterbacks. Great quarterbacks make great receivers, and that's 2402 02:06:12,200 --> 02:06:14,040 Speaker 1: just the way it is. So, Yeah, Robert Woods would 2403 02:06:14,040 --> 02:06:16,320 Speaker 1: have benefited greatly had the Bill's offense been in a 2404 02:06:16,320 --> 02:06:19,120 Speaker 1: different place than when he was here. But certainly he 2405 02:06:19,120 --> 02:06:23,839 Speaker 1: couldn't be happier than where he landed in LA for sure. Yep, hometown. 2406 02:06:23,960 --> 02:06:25,360 Speaker 1: Yeah what else you got on the tweet sheet? You 2407 02:06:25,360 --> 02:06:29,120 Speaker 1: haven't handy there, Steve, I do on the tweet sheet? 2408 02:06:29,400 --> 02:06:33,680 Speaker 1: Hold on here, Yeah, there we go the tweet sheet. Also, 2409 02:06:33,760 --> 02:06:38,400 Speaker 1: we've got we've We've read from Dan, from Jason, from Kyle. 2410 02:06:38,440 --> 02:06:41,000 Speaker 1: Here we go from Jack Showbill all the way played 2411 02:06:41,040 --> 02:06:43,000 Speaker 1: his career here played. Oh no, this is why you've 2412 02:06:43,000 --> 02:06:45,080 Speaker 1: read that one. Yeah. I think the next one up 2413 02:06:45,200 --> 02:06:48,000 Speaker 1: is from Brian number seven on the tweet sheet. Okay, 2414 02:06:48,000 --> 02:06:50,280 Speaker 1: here we go Kiko Alonso if he hadn't got hurt 2415 02:06:50,320 --> 02:06:54,240 Speaker 1: following his rookie year and Kiko turned into Lashawn McCoy 2416 02:06:54,360 --> 02:06:57,160 Speaker 1: with from the trade, so he was viable second from 2417 02:06:57,240 --> 02:07:01,200 Speaker 1: that angle as well. Yeah, yeah, that mad that. Do 2418 02:07:01,280 --> 02:07:04,960 Speaker 1: you add the value of Leshaw McCoy and his contributions 2419 02:07:05,040 --> 02:07:06,680 Speaker 1: during the years he was here on top of the 2420 02:07:07,120 --> 02:07:10,240 Speaker 1: Keiko Alonso's second round pick, That makes good sense to me. 2421 02:07:11,040 --> 02:07:13,520 Speaker 1: That does raise Kiko's value, I think on the on 2422 02:07:13,560 --> 02:07:16,600 Speaker 1: the list of second rounders because you got Leshaun McCoy 2423 02:07:16,680 --> 02:07:20,240 Speaker 1: for him, plus you got his great rookie season. Um, 2424 02:07:20,360 --> 02:07:22,160 Speaker 1: although I don't think it, I don't think it over 2425 02:07:23,000 --> 02:07:26,040 Speaker 1: it outweighs Aaron Schobel's you know, nine year career and 2426 02:07:26,080 --> 02:07:28,800 Speaker 1: a couple of Pro Bowls. So, m well, that does 2427 02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:32,640 Speaker 1: help the value of Kiko Alonso's second round grade. We 2428 02:07:32,720 --> 02:07:35,400 Speaker 1: only had Keiko for one year and then he turned 2429 02:07:35,400 --> 02:07:37,800 Speaker 1: into Leshaun McCoy. We had him for three years, a 2430 02:07:37,800 --> 02:07:40,680 Speaker 1: couple of thousand yards seasons, so that's a pretty good 2431 02:07:40,720 --> 02:07:43,040 Speaker 1: way to look at it. I hadn't really thought about that, 2432 02:07:43,120 --> 02:07:46,440 Speaker 1: had you, Murph? Yeah, I don't. I wouldn't give I 2433 02:07:46,560 --> 02:07:48,640 Speaker 1: like Keiko a lot. I wouldn't give him any credit 2434 02:07:48,680 --> 02:07:51,200 Speaker 1: for Leashan McCoy being the player he was, So I 2435 02:07:51,240 --> 02:07:53,600 Speaker 1: don't know. McCoy doesn't go on his record, is what 2436 02:07:53,640 --> 02:07:56,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Okay, you don't think that trade because Keko 2437 02:07:56,600 --> 02:08:00,160 Speaker 1: gave us, because this trade straight across gave us lesha M. Well, 2438 02:08:00,160 --> 02:08:02,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying that I'd rather evaluate, and 2439 02:08:02,080 --> 02:08:05,280 Speaker 1: I think Keiko's a fine player. I just you're getting 2440 02:08:05,320 --> 02:08:08,040 Speaker 1: it gets too complex, you know, I mean you want 2441 02:08:08,080 --> 02:08:10,880 Speaker 1: to you want to give Courty Glenn credit for Josh Allen. 2442 02:08:10,920 --> 02:08:13,160 Speaker 1: I mean his trade was part of that move up. 2443 02:08:13,160 --> 02:08:15,760 Speaker 1: You know, I don't part of it. Yeah, Speaking to 2444 02:08:15,800 --> 02:08:18,440 Speaker 1: Corty Glenn, we got a on the tweet sheet brought 2445 02:08:18,480 --> 02:08:21,200 Speaker 1: to you by Corrigan moving Systems from Team Many twenty two. 2446 02:08:21,400 --> 02:08:23,400 Speaker 1: Who's the Bill's best second round pick in the last 2447 02:08:23,400 --> 02:08:25,960 Speaker 1: twenty years? He says Corty Glenn was a good pick. 2448 02:08:26,080 --> 02:08:28,080 Speaker 1: He just dealt with a bunch of injuries, but talent 2449 02:08:28,200 --> 02:08:30,800 Speaker 1: was there. Too soon to say. On Dawkins, he's been 2450 02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:33,000 Speaker 1: up and down in my opinion, and a little overrated. 2451 02:08:33,000 --> 02:08:35,600 Speaker 1: Ford could be a good one three offensive linemen. Yet 2452 02:08:36,640 --> 02:08:40,400 Speaker 1: Courty Glenn was talented. Corty Glenn was not a fit, 2453 02:08:41,680 --> 02:08:44,200 Speaker 1: and you know, I think the Bills got tired of 2454 02:08:44,240 --> 02:08:46,240 Speaker 1: waiting for him to get healthy. I think the new regime, 2455 02:08:46,760 --> 02:08:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, watch Corty Glenn kind of lumber around the field, 2456 02:08:49,240 --> 02:08:51,200 Speaker 1: walking around to try to stay in shape, and they said, 2457 02:08:51,240 --> 02:08:53,120 Speaker 1: what are we doing with this guy? You know, maybe 2458 02:08:53,160 --> 02:08:55,360 Speaker 1: he played well for the previous regime, but I think 2459 02:08:55,400 --> 02:08:57,480 Speaker 1: they're ready to move on from Courty Glenn. That goes 2460 02:08:57,520 --> 02:08:59,800 Speaker 1: on Courty's record too. I mean he was he was 2461 02:08:59,840 --> 02:09:02,320 Speaker 1: a pretty good player. I don't think the Bengals were 2462 02:09:02,360 --> 02:09:04,880 Speaker 1: extremely happy with what they got out of Courty Glenn. 2463 02:09:04,880 --> 02:09:07,920 Speaker 1: Do you see? No, I think and I have not 2464 02:09:08,000 --> 02:09:11,560 Speaker 1: spoken to anybody specifically about Cordy Glenn. I just get 2465 02:09:11,560 --> 02:09:13,760 Speaker 1: the feeling from the way it went down and the 2466 02:09:13,800 --> 02:09:16,800 Speaker 1: way they made the transition from Corty Glenn to Dion Dawkins. 2467 02:09:17,200 --> 02:09:20,280 Speaker 1: I think there was some thought that Cordy Glenn did 2468 02:09:20,320 --> 02:09:25,200 Speaker 1: not have a furnace that burnt real hot. You know, 2469 02:09:25,760 --> 02:09:29,120 Speaker 1: I don't think his I don't think he was just 2470 02:09:29,360 --> 02:09:32,120 Speaker 1: breaking all the rules trying to get back on the field. 2471 02:09:32,160 --> 02:09:34,800 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think he had that mentality. This 2472 02:09:34,920 --> 02:09:36,640 Speaker 1: is I've got to get on the field. I've got 2473 02:09:36,640 --> 02:09:38,440 Speaker 1: to be ready. The team's depending on me. I don't 2474 02:09:38,480 --> 02:09:41,320 Speaker 1: think he had that mentality, or it displayed enough of 2475 02:09:41,360 --> 02:09:42,920 Speaker 1: it for the Bills to say, you know what, I don't. 2476 02:09:42,960 --> 02:09:44,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if his DNA is what we're looking for. 2477 02:09:44,840 --> 02:09:47,520 Speaker 1: And that was early in Sean mcdermot's tenure as well, 2478 02:09:47,520 --> 02:09:49,520 Speaker 1: when they made that decision. I think the Bengals. The 2479 02:09:49,560 --> 02:09:51,680 Speaker 1: Bengals have found the same thing out about Corty Glenn. 2480 02:09:51,760 --> 02:09:53,320 Speaker 1: Right where did he wind up? He went somewhere else 2481 02:09:53,360 --> 02:09:59,600 Speaker 1: this year. I can't recall. I don't know. He's not 2482 02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:05,160 Speaker 1: he says, yeah, he's still with the Bengals. All right, 2483 02:10:05,160 --> 02:10:06,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna take a break. We got more coming up. 2484 02:10:06,800 --> 02:10:10,640 Speaker 1: One Bill's Live presented by Kalida Health. This radio only today. 2485 02:10:10,720 --> 02:10:23,800 Speaker 1: This is Buffalo Bills Radio. So what have we learned? 2486 02:10:23,960 --> 02:10:27,000 Speaker 1: Is brought to you by Skyworks, the official construction equipment 2487 02:10:27,080 --> 02:10:29,640 Speaker 1: rental company of the Buffalo Bills. Today in the show, 2488 02:10:29,640 --> 02:10:31,840 Speaker 1: we had Chris Brown Bills Inside or a Buffalo Bills 2489 02:10:31,880 --> 02:10:34,600 Speaker 1: dot Com he was asked about the possibility of Buffalo 2490 02:10:34,680 --> 02:10:36,960 Speaker 1: taking a quarterback maybe on Day three of the draft. 2491 02:10:37,000 --> 02:10:40,600 Speaker 1: Here's what Brown he said. I think it comes down 2492 02:10:40,640 --> 02:10:44,000 Speaker 1: to whether you feel the quarterback on the board in 2493 02:10:44,080 --> 02:10:46,520 Speaker 1: Day three is an upgrade over what you feel you 2494 02:10:46,560 --> 02:10:48,680 Speaker 1: have in Davis Webb. If they believe that to be 2495 02:10:48,760 --> 02:10:51,560 Speaker 1: the case, well then they may take a swing, especially, 2496 02:10:51,600 --> 02:10:53,920 Speaker 1: as we mentioned, knowing that there aren't a ton of 2497 02:10:53,960 --> 02:10:57,480 Speaker 1: glaring holes where you couldn't take what might be perceived, 2498 02:10:57,560 --> 02:11:00,400 Speaker 1: as you know, somewhat of a luxury pick and take 2499 02:11:00,440 --> 02:11:03,520 Speaker 1: a third quarterback, someone that you might project to be 2500 02:11:03,840 --> 02:11:06,440 Speaker 1: the backup of the future behind Josh Allen. We can't 2501 02:11:06,480 --> 02:11:08,560 Speaker 1: dismiss the fact that Matt Barkley is heading into the 2502 02:11:08,640 --> 02:11:13,320 Speaker 1: last year of his contract. There you go, Chris Brown 2503 02:11:13,400 --> 02:11:15,720 Speaker 1: talking about the Bills taking a quarterback maybe in the 2504 02:11:15,800 --> 02:11:20,160 Speaker 1: draft this weekend. Tony Pauline from NFL Pro Football Network 2505 02:11:20,400 --> 02:11:23,320 Speaker 1: NFL Draft Analysts, we asked him what's the Bill's biggest 2506 02:11:23,400 --> 02:11:25,520 Speaker 1: need going into the draft this weekend. Here's what Tony 2507 02:11:25,560 --> 02:11:29,040 Speaker 1: Pauline said. I think they could always use some offensive 2508 02:11:29,160 --> 02:11:33,400 Speaker 1: mind help. I think, obviously, you know, despite the fact 2509 02:11:33,440 --> 02:11:37,520 Speaker 1: they signed Mario Addison, I think edge rusher is something 2510 02:11:37,560 --> 02:11:39,600 Speaker 1: that they've got to look at, and they could potentially 2511 02:11:39,600 --> 02:11:43,280 Speaker 1: get Laton round two. I think that they need to 2512 02:11:43,280 --> 02:11:47,040 Speaker 1: add to the stable of running back, you know, just 2513 02:11:47,120 --> 02:11:51,400 Speaker 1: add some players behind Devin Singletary and TJ. Yelden, especially 2514 02:11:51,440 --> 02:11:54,960 Speaker 1: behind Singletary. So I think those are three areas where 2515 02:11:54,960 --> 02:11:59,360 Speaker 1: they can look and honestly, I think they'll be should 2516 02:11:59,360 --> 02:12:01,000 Speaker 1: be a running back, Yeah, I think there will be 2517 02:12:01,040 --> 02:12:03,160 Speaker 1: some pass rushers there for them the bottom around two. 2518 02:12:05,320 --> 02:12:07,880 Speaker 1: Tony Potline talking about the Bills draft needs, Steve. Where 2519 02:12:07,920 --> 02:12:10,680 Speaker 1: your days away from the draft? Now? People are getting excited. 2520 02:12:10,720 --> 02:12:13,720 Speaker 1: I like it. I'm getting excited. Yeah, we're hours away almost. 2521 02:12:13,760 --> 02:12:15,640 Speaker 1: I mean too, we got like forty eight hours and 2522 02:12:15,680 --> 02:12:17,560 Speaker 1: we'll be on the day of, so it'll be fun. 2523 02:12:17,640 --> 02:12:21,120 Speaker 1: It's like always, it's it's a big deal in the 2524 02:12:21,200 --> 02:12:23,680 Speaker 1: National Football League. And even though the Bills don't pick 2525 02:12:23,720 --> 02:12:26,520 Speaker 1: till number fifty four, Murph, I'm gonna be all, Oh, 2526 02:12:26,560 --> 02:12:29,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be watching every pick. Yeah, I'm gonna be 2527 02:12:29,440 --> 02:12:32,480 Speaker 1: glued to the TV. Yep, Hey, this is interesting. Just 2528 02:12:32,560 --> 02:12:35,480 Speaker 1: came over. Ian Rappaport just tweeted out the Jaguars releasing 2529 02:12:35,520 --> 02:12:39,080 Speaker 1: wide receiver Marquise Lee, one of the most productive receivers 2530 02:12:39,080 --> 02:12:41,560 Speaker 1: now free agent. He's healthy, cleared medically, he's a free agent. 2531 02:12:41,560 --> 02:12:44,560 Speaker 1: We'll talk more about that tomorrow, Steve, we'll be back 2532 02:12:44,560 --> 02:12:46,320 Speaker 1: on the here tomorrow, looking forward to it.
