Back from Munich with the New 7 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: York Football Giants. 8 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: Uh. 9 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: Fun trip. It's good to be back with you, Tony. 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: Talking about draft prospects last week. If you didn't check 11 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: it out, we did Tony's risers and sliders on offense. 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: Today we're gonna look at the defensive side of the ball. Tony. 13 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: I'm pumped to talk some college prospects with you. 14 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: Man. 15 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: How are you? 16 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: I'm okay. More importantly, how are you? We want to 17 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: hear your breakdown about Germany. You promise talk about pretzels. 18 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: I wanted to hear about the beer there. 19 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think what interesting thing about German pretzels. While 20 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: they are excellent, they're not like the warm soft ones. 21 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: They're usually not served hot and they're not crispy, but 22 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: they're not soft either, So it's like a good cross 23 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: between there were excellent. Had my fair share of beer 24 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: over the course of the week, obviously when I had 25 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: some free time and I wasn't on a Giants hours. 26 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: But I got to give German fans credit, Mantoni. They 27 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: were into it. Giant jerseys everywhere, but jerseys of all 28 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: sorts of NFL teams all over the place. I was 29 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: walking around downtown on Saturday and just jerseys everywhere and 30 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: fans super excited. You know, the last few teams in 31 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: NFL Europe were all in Germany, and I really think 32 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: they have an affinity for the game, so I think 33 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: even more so than London, where I think it's more 34 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: of a spectacle. I really do think there's like a 35 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: legitimate NFL fan base in Germany. If the league wants 36 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 1: to make this a regular stop every year. 37 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, don't say that too, lad, because Roger Goodell 38 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 2: keeps talking about moving the Super Bowl overseas. That'll just 39 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 2: give him more Bruce, let me ask you some were 40 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: there a lot of American fans that flew over to 41 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 2: Germany for these in the game or were the majority 42 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: of the people wearing giant jerseys German citizens. 43 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: I met a lot of people that flew over, but 44 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: there were a ton of Germans wearing NFL jerseys, you know, 45 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: a ball team, So I think there is a legitimate local, 46 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, affinity for American football. And I don't think 47 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: we talked to somebody about this last week when we 48 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: were out there, one of the NFL folks. And I 49 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: don't think the Super Bowl is going to be in 50 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 1: Europe anytime soon, to be honest with you. But Goodell 51 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: did talk about the next few years maybe trying to 52 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: have sixteen games, one for each team in Europe every year, 53 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: or I shouldn't say in Europe internationally, whether that's Europe, 54 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: Mexico City, Brazil, they're talking about Australia, maybe Japan. So 55 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 1: if you work or cover an NFL team you get, 56 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: you better get your passport ready because everyone's going to 57 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: be traveling pretty soon for these for these games. 58 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,679 Speaker 2: One last thing on the beverages. You said the pretzels 59 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 2: were not warm. Was the beer room temperature or cold? Oh? 60 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: It was cold? It was cold, Okay, cool. 61 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: Oftentimes they sa I've been there that it's room temperature, 62 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: which real. Yeah, you know, cold pretzels and warm beer 63 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: just not a good mix. 64 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: No, not a good mix. Now, the beer, in my 65 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: experience was was cold, so that was that was not 66 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: an issue, and we had a great time. Germans were 67 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: great hosts and can't wait to go back. It was 68 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: a lot of fun, all right, Tony. So let's talk 69 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: about the weekend in college football first, and we'll start 70 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: with a big SEC matchup with these two teams that 71 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: are trying to get into the college football playoffs, and 72 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: ole Miss certainly helped their cause a twenty eight to 73 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: ten win over Georgia. Both those teams now with two losses, 74 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: ole Miss at eight and two, Georgia at seven and two. 75 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: And you know, Jackson Dart his numbers certainly not what 76 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: they were the prior week when we talked about is 77 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: what was a four hundred yards passing and five touchdown passes? 78 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: Whatever it was, but he did enough to get the 79 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: win against Georgia. 80 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you missed some good games this weekend while you 81 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: were enjoying your German ber pretzels. 82 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I told you I was all psyched. I'm like 83 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: Alabama LSU. Wait it starts at two am. I guess 84 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: that's not happening. 85 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: You didn't miss You didn't miss much with that. That 86 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: was that was a disaster that game, but I mean, 87 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: this was a must win for Mississippi. And what happened 88 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: was early on Jalen Walker, the junior linebacker who I 89 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,119 Speaker 2: think is now established himself as a first round pick. 90 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: They sent them up field on the blitz. He had 91 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: a great inside inside move he hit the quarterback which 92 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: caused it interception the first series that Mississippi had the ball, 93 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: and you're like, uh, oh, George is gonna pounds on 94 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: him with all his great talent. But what happened was 95 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: Mississippi kind of settled themselves. And you talk about Jackson Dart, 96 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 2: you can you know, you don't know. Jackson Dart was 97 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 2: basically playing on one leg because he hurt his ankle. 98 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 2: I believe midway through the first quarter, they took him 99 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: off the field. The freshman quarterback came in drove them 100 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 2: down for a field goal. And Jackson Dart wasn't great, 101 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: But what he did was he kept his team in 102 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 2: the game and he kept continually moved that that Mississippi 103 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 2: offense into a score into scoring position, whether we'd either 104 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,679 Speaker 2: get a touchdown or a field goal. So Dart wasn't 105 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 2: You didn't have great numbers, but he really played a 106 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: good game as opposed to Carson. 107 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: Back and the real quick before we go to back 108 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: Dard had that twenty eight yard run before or after 109 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: the ankle injury. 110 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 2: After the ankle injury. After the ankle injury. Yeah, that 111 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: was that was late in the game when it was 112 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: still kind of close, and that twenty eight yard run 113 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: kind of broke the broke the gates open for Mississippi. 114 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 2: Whereas Carson Beck he could not he could not convert, 115 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: he could not move the field. You know, we talk 116 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 2: about Kim mood, how Kim Wore always seems to have 117 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: an answer. Carson Beck doesn't have an answer. Had an 118 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: interception on a tip ball, didn't have his three interception game. 119 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: But you know, again it's hit and missed with Carson Beck. 120 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 2: He makes some incredible passes and then he gets very streaky. 121 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: He can't move the offense. He does a great job 122 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: when his back's against the wall and they're down by 123 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 2: you know, twenty one points. We can't play like that 124 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 2: every week, and he really didn't have an answer. Very 125 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: uninspired play by Carson Beck, who I believe continues to 126 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: tumble down draft boards and I don't think it's out 127 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: of the question that Carson Beck, wh will of people 128 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: though it would be a top ten pick, ends up 129 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 2: falling out of the first round because he's just not 130 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: been good this year. 131 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: Why did Trevor Atien only have six carries? 132 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 2: Well, it's and it's kind of funny you mentioned that, 133 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 2: because early in the game Georgia went away from the 134 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 2: passing game and then leaned on the running game, and 135 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 2: they were they were decent at it. But I think 136 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,559 Speaker 2: what happened was the Mississippi defensive line was just playing 137 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: lights out. They got you would you would have thought, 138 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: you know, if Georgia has all that great talent in 139 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: their defensive front seven on their defensive line, what was 140 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: Mississippi who turned tearing the tables because uh, human human lady, 141 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 2: human human Lee Ellen, I broke that down. 142 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: That's pretty good, Tony good job had. 143 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: Five tackles, two tackles for the lost two sacks, uh, 144 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: and he just they just couldn't stop them. I mean, 145 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 2: the Georgia offensive line had their head on a swivel 146 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: because they were being they were being overrun by Mississippi. 147 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: So I think it was it was the fact that 148 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: they couldn't get Carson bit going, and the Mississippi defensive 149 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: line just basically did not allow Georgia to breathe. 150 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about it. Just a really nice job. 151 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: Who else from this game jumped out at your tone? 152 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jared Ivy, the big defensive end six to five 153 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 2: and a half and eighty pounds runs in the four sevens, 154 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: had some really nice plays. He's the guy. He's got 155 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: first round measurables. He plays like a top one hundred 156 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 2: pick on occasion. But he's he's been a little bit streaky. 157 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: He's starting to turn it on now at the right time. 158 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 2: So both him and Princeley played incredibly well. I mean 159 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: the Georgia defensive line. Georgia defensive line really was neutralized 160 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: by Mississippi. Who I thought besides Jackson Dart did a 161 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: terrific job. 162 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's go over to Miami. Georgia Tech obviously 163 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: a bad loss for Miami, the first loss of the 164 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: year twenty eight, twenty three. I still think they'll be 165 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: in the playoff picture after this lost, Tony, but now 166 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: you're one more loss. You never know what you're gonna 167 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: look at. And I did not see the game, as 168 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: you mentioned, I was in Munich at the time change 169 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: with Giants events, it was impossible. But I did see 170 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: that final play from cam Ward on the last drive 171 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: trying to come down to win the game, or he 172 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: held it and held it and kind of danced around 173 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: the pocket a little bit too relaxed, got stripped. So 174 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: I since we got like every shade of cam Ward 175 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: that you would want in this game, where you got 176 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: some good twenty five or thirty nine, three forty eight 177 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: three touchdowns, but then we saw some of the bad 178 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: with the decision making, with the turnover at the end. 179 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, first of all, from a team perspective, 180 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: you know, Miami's been living on the edge. They had 181 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 2: to pull it out late against Virginia Tech. They've had 182 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: some games that they really had to pull out late, 183 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: and Georgia Tech got up early and Miami just couldn't 184 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: come back and win the game. I think, what, you know, 185 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: you look at Ward's numbers, twenty five or thirty nine, 186 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: three hundred and forty eight yards, three TVs, no interceptions, 187 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 2: you're like, wow. But when you watch the film, you 188 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: know he shows that great patience, he shows that great intuition, 189 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: but there's just too much improvisation on his behalf, which 190 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: kind of leads to disaster. You talked about the last play, 191 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: I mean, he holds the ball too long, and I 192 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 2: think he just thinks he's going to make plays, which 193 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: he usually has, but oftentimes it happened a couple times 194 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 2: at a Georgia Tech game. You know, he's holding the 195 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: ball too long, he's getting sacked. That last sack led 196 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: to a fumble which ended the game Georgia Tech wins. 197 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: He's not going to be able to do that on Sunday. 198 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 2: So while definitely heading the right direction the way Carson 199 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: Beck is playing, the way Quinn Ewers is playing, the 200 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: way some of the other top guys are playing. Kevin 201 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: Wood's obviously going to be in the conversation for the 202 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: first quarterback selected. But still that propensity to hold the 203 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: ball too long, I think is something that is going 204 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 2: to be talked about as we lead up to the draft, 205 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: something that the scouts and the coaches are going to 206 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: talk to Cam what about during those combine interviews. 207 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: And that's something that again, you can't do that in 208 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: the NFL, right you got to get the ball out 209 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: in two and a half to two point seven seconds, 210 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: and the other top quarterback I know he's on your list, 211 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: but I think your comment is telling. George Sanders is 212 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: another guy that I know. He doesn't have great protection 213 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: in Colorado, but he tends to hold the ball to 214 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: runs backwards sometimes. So those are two guys that Those 215 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: are some of the things like pocket management and timing 216 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: that I think the NFL teams are going to really 217 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: lock in on, even though they have a ton of 218 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: arm talent. 219 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. And I think the other thing is what 220 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 2: we praise cam Ward and some of his receivers as well, 221 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: we should. I mean, the Miami Hurricane defense has been 222 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 2: disastrous this year and they've got some NFL talent Tyler 223 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 2: barn the defensive end, a Keem mesidor the quick, explosive 224 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: defensive tackle, Francisco Mawaga the the inside linebacker, and they're 225 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 2: getting they're just getting hammered. I mean, these are guys 226 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: who are early to mid Day three prospects and they're 227 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: getting run over by the opposition. So while we talk 228 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: about cam Ward and how his draft stock is rising, 229 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: just about all of those Miami Hurricane defensive players who 230 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: we thought could sneak into the late part of Day two, 231 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: maybe fourth round type prospects. They're all dropping down draft boards. 232 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: Two hundred and seventy one rushing yards in this game 233 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: for Georgia Tech. They just pounded the ball on the 234 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: ground on their way to victory. All right, Tony Michigan, Indiana. 235 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: That was the game. Obviously, Indiana's had an unbelievable season 236 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: thus far in college football with their new coach Cognetti, 237 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: They're very excited and it was all dicey at times, 238 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: but they held on for the twenty fifteen win. 239 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: And again, Curtis Rourke, you know, a Jackson Dark type 240 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 2: of performance. Not great, seventeen to twenty eight, six yards, 241 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 2: two tds, one interception, but got the job done, answered 242 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 2: the bell and was able to answer when Indiana needed it. 243 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: They were down early in that game. That Michigan defense 244 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: was relentless. Two sacks, four tackles for loss. They're very 245 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 2: talented front four. Yet Rock stood in there. And again, 246 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 2: you know, we talk about these top quarterbacks, how they 247 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 2: have disappointed. Work is not disappointed. He's going to be 248 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: an interesting evaluation moving towards the twenty twenty five NFL Draft. 249 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: I'm sure we're gonna see him at a postseason game. 250 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure, we're gonna see him at the Combine, and 251 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 2: he's a guy who really has answered the call. Now, 252 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: Indiana plays Ohio State in two weeks, and you know, 253 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 2: Ohio State has a lot of talent on the defensive 254 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 2: front line, defensive front line, even in the defensive front seven. 255 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: So that's gonna be another telling game for Curtis Ark, 256 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 2: who doesn't have the greatest offensive line in front of him, 257 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 2: yet finds ways to make plays and finds ways to 258 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: move his offense down the field. 259 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: Obviously, Tony, there's still a lot of pro talent that's 260 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: gonna get drafted high on that Michigan defense. Even though 261 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: their offensive struggled this year. How do you think they 262 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: performed this week? 263 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 2: Oh? They were. I mean they were relentless. I mean 264 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 2: Roc at times was running for his life and they 265 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 2: were constantly in his face. But Mason Graham played well. 266 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: They had some good Josiah Stewart off the edge. I 267 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 2: thought that they did a very good job. The problem 268 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: what Michigan is their offense. I mean, they lost all 269 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: those offensive linemen last year. They can't get the you 270 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: can't get the quarterback situation settled. I think the running 271 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: game has been disappointing, especially what compared to what it 272 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: was there, what it was when Jim Horbo was there. 273 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: But then again, you look at how many of those 274 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: players from last year are now on NFL rosters. The 275 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: Michigan defense is real good though. 276 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely you meant you don't have it on your run 277 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: down here, Tony. But since you know we I mentioned 278 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: it briefly, I want to just touch on that Alabama 279 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: LSU game. Alabama blew out LSU forty two to thirteen, 280 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: and you know, we've kind of been in on on 281 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks over the course of this so I want 282 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: to talk about Jalen Minrol and Garret Nusmeyer in this game. 283 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: And I think you know a lot of people like 284 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 1: Garrey Nusmeyer. I think he's got a lot of talent 285 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: as well. I hope this game kind of sends the 286 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: signal go back for another year. Yeah, hone, your skills 287 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: figure things out. Twenty seven to forty two to two 288 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: thirty nine, two more interceptions. He had those issues last 289 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: week with the picks too, just one touchdown. And then 290 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: Jalen Milroe, and this is I think the Jalen Milroe 291 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: that's gonna tempt people a lot because so many physical 292 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: tools are there. Twelve carries, one hundred and eighty five yards, 293 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: four touchdowns, seventy two yards. On that score, I believe 294 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: he got upwards of twenty four miles per hour on 295 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: the run according to some of the player tracking, which 296 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: equates to a high four to three if you know, 297 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: translate that to a forty yard dash. But just twelve 298 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: of eighteen for one hundred and nine yards through the air. 299 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: Now, you gotta remember it was raining in that game, 300 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: and it was raining pretty hard at times, which I 301 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: guess is sort of why they used Milrow more as 302 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: a ball carrier than they did as a passer, and 303 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: he destroyed him as the ball carrier as far as 304 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: nus Meyers concerned. Yeah, this was a you know, comeback 305 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: to reality moment which people are talking about him being 306 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: a first round pick. No way. He's got a lot 307 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 2: of ability, but he needs a lot more work through 308 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: a lot of passes that were getting away from him. 309 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 2: And you know, basically Alabama defense finally woke up Milroe. 310 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: He's just an explosive athlete. Did miss a couple of 311 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: downfield passes when I watched it, because this game was 312 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 2: over pretty early. Where guys were wide open and he 313 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 2: overthrew the guys, so that downfield accuracy is going to 314 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: come into question. But I think you saw what Jaylen Milroe, 315 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 2: the potential he has and with nuss Meyer, as you said, really, 316 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 2: I think people are just overreacting. He's been good, but 317 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: he's not been great. There are too many passes that 318 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: just got away from him in this game. I'll tell 319 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 2: you what you know. We talked about the tackles Will Campbell. 320 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 2: We've talked about Will Campbell a couple of times. I 321 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: kept my eyes on Emery Jones, the right tackle, and 322 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: I was very impressed with Emery Jones. He is what 323 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 2: Will Campbell is in the sense that he is your 324 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: nasty blocker. He's always looking to bury the defender into 325 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 2: the ground. I mean he is playing through the whistle 326 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 2: and after the whistle. Doesn't have great footwork in pass protection, 327 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: doesn't show that great ability to slide out off the edge, 328 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: more of your traditional right tackle. But I liked a 329 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: lot of what I saw from Emery Jones against an 330 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 2: Alabama defense that finally woke up last week. He had 331 00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 2: si lsu. 332 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, look at mill numbers this year. He just had 333 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: two games where he's stowing more than throwing for more 334 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: than two hundred and forty yards, and frankly just three 335 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: games where he's stowing for more than two hundred and 336 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: fifteen yards. So I still think a lot of And look, 337 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: he is a coach that knows how to coach up 338 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: the passing game. We know that right from when he 339 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: was in Washington. So he knows how to throw the 340 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: ball down the field. So again I just think the 341 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: tools are unbelievable, and he's an unbelievable kid by all 342 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: accounts as well. People will love him in interviews and 343 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Jaleen Merrow, unbelievable, a plus personality, teammate, 344 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. So we'll have to see 345 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: what teams think of him when we get up draft. 346 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: You know, maybe it doesn't come out, Maybe he goes 347 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: back for another year and collects that big nil check 348 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: and we'll see him. We'll see him in twenty twenty six. 349 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 2: Who knows one thing is you can see that Jayleen 350 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 2: Milroad leadership on the field, Alah Jackson, Dart, Alah Curtis Wharf, 351 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: you can see that. You know, he is a guy 352 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 2: that the players gravitate to that he takes that leadership. Well, 353 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 2: it's something I'm glad you brought that up when you 354 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 2: talked about the character, because that is obvious when you 355 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 2: watch the games. What a leader is. Uh, you know, 356 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: gonna have to be a huge nil deal. I think 357 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 2: to keep him back it's not out of the question 358 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: these days. But he's going to be an early pick, 359 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 2: and you know, it may be good for him to 360 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: go back and hone his game, but I think the 361 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 2: NFL calling is gonna be it's gonna be a little 362 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: bit too lucrative for him to stay at state at Alabama. 363 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure i'll know more in the next couple of weeks. 364 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: You think right now he's going to be a first 365 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: round pick. 366 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: I think, hands down he's gonna be a first round pick. 367 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, you know, we've seen lesser quarterbacks go 368 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: in the first round. We've seen guys who didn't have 369 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 2: the same orange string, didn't have the size, didn't have 370 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 2: the running ability, were equally as the same level as 371 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 2: far as their development as a passer. Jaylen Milroy is 372 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 2: going the top fifteen, so I think there's no doubt 373 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: he's going to be a first round pick. I think 374 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 2: he's going to be a top half of Round one. 375 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: Pick Moods is a proud partner of the New York Giants, 376 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: uniting the brightest minds to turn today's risks into tomorrow's opportunities. 377 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: Learn more Moodies dot Com. All right, Tony, let's get 378 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: to your risers and sliders on the defensive side of 379 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: the ball. Let's start up front with the big fellas. 380 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: We'll start with Walter Noan, a guy that you talked 381 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: about a few different times over the course of this program. 382 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: He's having a nice little year for Mississippi. 383 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, not just a big body in the middle of 384 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 2: the line, but someone who makes a lot of plays. 385 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 2: Thirty two tackles, seven and a half tackles for US 386 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 2: four sacks, very athletic when you watch and penetrates the 387 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, easily changes direction, can pursue plays out 388 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 2: to the flanks. There was one play on a fumble 389 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 2: Saturday against Georgia where he was out in sidelines made 390 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,120 Speaker 2: the fumble recovery. So you know, he was a guy 391 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: who a lot of people thought had first round talent 392 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 2: coming into the season. I think he's definitely moved into 393 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 2: the top twenty if he enters the draft, and I'd 394 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 2: be surprised if he doesn't enter the draft. 395 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: Smaller school. How about Michael Green at a marshalltos. 396 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, here's the guy that no one talks about. 397 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 2: I'm told he's definitely entering the draft. Thirty three tackles, 398 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: fourteen and a half tackles for US ten sacks. He's 399 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 2: a taller, thinner pass rusher, comes out of a three 400 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 2: point stands, can stand over tackle, fluid moving around the field, 401 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 2: shows ability backed off the line of scrimmage. If you 402 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: if you're a team needs an edgreusher and you were 403 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 2: not familiar with Michael Green, start watching Marshall football. I 404 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 2: think he's gonna enter the draft and he's gonna be 405 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: a Day two pick. Yeah. 406 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: I told you this is the name I'm not familiar with, 407 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: so I'm excited to talk about him. Ty Robbinson out 408 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: of Nebraska six to five, over three hundred pounds and. 409 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 2: Very athletic run. You know, he's expected to run a 410 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: low four fives. Ended the season as a late round pick. 411 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: Time out of time out low four fives you mean 412 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: three eleven. You might be the first pick of the draft. 413 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: Holy faking entered. 414 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: The season, Thank you entered the season's late round. Pick 415 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: nine tackles for the US five sacks always making place. 416 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 2: And if you watch Nebraska, they line them up all 417 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 2: over that defensive line. They line them up out on 418 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 2: the edge, they line them up over nose tackle, at 419 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 2: nose tackle, they line him up at defensive tackle. A 420 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: guy that can be a defensive end and the three 421 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 2: man front, you could be a defensive tackle. Your inside 422 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 2: guy can play and in a format front. Excuse me, 423 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 2: just somebody who does everything very well and consistently makes 424 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 2: plays against talented offensive lineman. I think Robinson is a 425 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 2: guy who came into the season ranted as a seventh rounder. 426 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 2: You're looking at early day three, possibly late day two. 427 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: All right, then you have two other guys up front 428 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: that you want to touch on. 429 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, these are your your natural those tackles zero technique guys. 430 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 2: Jordan Phillips out of Maryland six three three and twenty pounds, 431 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 2: Dom Orange out of Iowa State sixty four three twenty 432 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 2: five Orange is a guy who's had a really really 433 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 2: good season. Really came out of nowhere where Jordan Phillips 434 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: showed a lot of ability last year. Pretty sure Phillips 435 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 2: is going to enter the draft. I heard their Orange 436 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 2: could enter the draft. You're probably looking at maybe third round, 437 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 2: but more likely early day three. Your natural you know, 438 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 2: zero tech knows tackle type of defensive linemen. 439 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: All right, and now, how about a couple of guys 440 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: that maybe have not met expectations. One guy that we've 441 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: talked about maybe is a potential Day two pick last 442 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: year in Ashton July. 443 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 2: I mean last year fourteen and a half tackles for 444 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: lost eleven sacks. This year five and a half tackles 445 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 2: for lost two and a half sacks, worst numbers since 446 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 2: his freshman season. He's a guy when you watch Louisville, 447 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 2: you know he's nowhere to be found where last year 448 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: he was unstoppable. And you know he's gone from a 449 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 2: potential Day two pick probably second half of Day three 450 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 2: because he's just not shown up this year. 451 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: And then we've talked about how good South Carolina's defensive 452 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 1: line has been this year. Tony in their front has 453 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: been dominant. But there's one player that some injuries, he 454 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: hasn't played as much that maybe not so much. 455 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 2: DeAndre Jewles the transfer from pitt he was supposed to 456 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 2: be a rotational guy. They got tonk Hemwa Hemyway in there, TJ. Samons, 457 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 2: both good players. Jewles was supposed to be a rotational 458 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 2: He had some injury issues last year at Pittsburgh, entered 459 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 2: the draft with Day two grades. He's played I believe 460 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: five games this year, has not played since October, so 461 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,880 Speaker 2: obviously his draft stock is gonna drop. 462 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: Okay, Now, we got a couple of guys on the edge, Tony, 463 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: that you think have really stepped up their game, and 464 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: I want to see you try to pronounce two of 465 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: these names. I'm looking forward to that the most. I 466 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: think Tony Jayn. 467 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 2: Walker, Yeah, I mean Walker. All you got to do 468 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: is watch Georgia and he's all over the place. And 469 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: this was somebody that over the summer I watched him 470 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 2: and he was a rotational linebacker for Georgia in twenty 471 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,959 Speaker 2: twenty three. And he's just elevated his game. He's going 472 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: to be a first round pick. People are going to 473 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 2: brand him as an edge rusher as I did here. 474 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: Probably I shouldn't have, but he can do everything. He 475 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: can drop off the line of scrimmage, he can play 476 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: in pass coverage, he can run down opponents, in pursuit 477 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 2: and a guy that you know, Like I said, he 478 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 2: started off that Mississippi game with a great inside rush 479 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: caused the interception. But he's a lot more than that, 480 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: and I would expect Walker probably then if he does, 481 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 2: I think he's going to be a bottom half a 482 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 2: round one guy. 483 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: All right, and then uh okay, I'm gonna try the 484 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: first one. Olua femi ola Dejo. 485 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 2: There you go. I think that's right on. That's right on. 486 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 2: Another smaller sort of edge rusher that can standover tackle, 487 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 2: come out of a three point stance, six three two 488 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 2: and fifty five pounds easily moves around the field. Against 489 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 2: the Penn State he had ten tackles, two tackles for 490 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 2: loss and sack. Had four tackles for loss and two 491 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 2: sacks last week, should say last Friday night against Iowa. 492 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: That UCLA team with the Shawn Foster as the head 493 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: coach is starting to get into gear. Ol the Dejeju 494 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,479 Speaker 2: has been a real good player all along. More than 495 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 2: just a pass rusher, a guy who can play off 496 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. He's showing ability in space potential. 497 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 2: Day two pick entered the season as like a six 498 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: or seventh round prospect, So he's improved the stock by 499 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: at least four rounds. 500 00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: And how about Boston College Donovan Iseiroku. 501 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: Donovan not the guy who sang Sunshine Superman, but a 502 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 2: guy who looks like a superman on the football field. 503 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 2: I mean, this is one of the most underrated pass 504 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 2: rushers in the nation. Fourteen tackles for US eleven sacks, 505 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: three forced fumbles. He was a good player last year. 506 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 2: He's not just a one year wonder. If you watched 507 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 2: Boston Collins last year, he was all over the place 508 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 2: making plays. But again, six two and a half, two 509 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: and forty five pounds, probably gonna run the forty in 510 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 2: the four to seven, So he doesn't have those great measurables. 511 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: So what you're doing is you're projecting him as a 512 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: situational pass rusher at the next level, at least early on, 513 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 2: which is why I think he's a day through pick, 514 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 2: a Day three pick, but just a terrific football player, 515 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: all right. 516 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,959 Speaker 1: And then you have Josiah Stewart Adam Michigan, Tony. This 517 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: is a guy that I think coming into this year 518 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: we had high hopes. Four. 519 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the next three guys on the list 520 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 2: are basically real good pass rushers, but they just don't 521 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 2: have great size and speed, so they all kind of 522 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: fit together in the late rounds. Josiah Stewart sixty one 523 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: pounds runs in the four sevens, eleven eleven tackles for 524 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 2: the lost six and a half sacks this year. I 525 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,360 Speaker 2: mentioned him earlier in the Indiana game. Constantly getting pressure, 526 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 2: constantly making plays up the field. But these are guys 527 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 2: who are gonna have to learn to make plays off 528 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 2: off the line in space. Antoine Powell Ryland of Virginia Tech, 529 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 2: same sort of situation, entered the season with the priority 530 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: free agent crage fourteen and a half tackles for loss 531 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 2: this year thirteen sacks, last year fourteen and a half tackles, 532 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 2: nine sacks. If you watch the Virginia Tech program, they 533 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 2: have a history of these smaller one gap defensive ends, 534 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: these smaller edge rushers. Antoon Powell Ryland fits that mold. 535 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,479 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a late round pick. And then kylein Cannard, 536 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 2: I mean kylein Canard in some areas of the scouting community, 537 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 2: was graded as a reject. You know, a guy who 538 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: had no chance thirteen and a half tackles for lost 539 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: nine and a half sacks if you watch him. He 540 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 2: handled Wilkes Amble of LSU pretty well early this season. 541 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 2: And a guy who you know, if he runs in 542 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 2: the four nines at the combine or for day workouts, 543 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: which some people think he's gonna be a four to 544 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 2: nine guy, he's not gonna get drafted. If he runs 545 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,400 Speaker 2: in the low four rates, high four to sevens, you're 546 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 2: looking at a late round pick, which people say, wow, 547 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: late round picks. But he was off the charts coming 548 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 2: in the season. He's had a great year. 549 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: All right, Now, let's go some of your sliders at 550 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: the edge position, Tony. These are some of the guys 551 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 1: on our first couple of shows we were talking about 552 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: potential top ten picks. Here. 553 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: Some people thought James Pearce at Tennessee was going to 554 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: be the first pick of the draft. I mean seven 555 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 2: and a half tackles for lost five and a half sacks. 556 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 2: The thing that concerns me about Pierce is when you 557 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 2: look at when you look at him, he's just a tall, 558 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: thin guy. He looks like a small guy, so you 559 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 2: know you're gonna have to really protect him at the 560 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: next level. Still think he's a first round pick, but 561 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 2: this was someone who was projected as the potential first 562 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,959 Speaker 2: pick of the draft. When you have the duo at 563 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 2: Ohio State, j T two and Maloa and Jack Sawyer 564 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 2: were playing in dribs and drabs, I mean, sometimes they 565 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 2: show up, sometimes they disappear. Very streaky for two guys 566 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 2: who are supposed to be very talented. I think the 567 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 2: defensive tackles of Ohio State have played well, but these 568 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 2: guys have not lived up to expectations and their draft 569 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 2: stock as a result has taken a hit. And then 570 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 2: Patrick Payton of Florida State. I mean it's been a 571 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 2: disastrous season for Florida State. Really from the get go. 572 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 2: Patrick Payton, there were people such as myself who thought 573 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 2: if you had a big year, he could move into 574 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 2: the late part of Round one. Four sacks this year. 575 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 2: At times, he looks like he'd rather be out fishing 576 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 2: or playing video games or something rather than being on 577 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 2: the football field. That's going to be something that's just 578 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 2: discussed with him in the offseason. But Patrick Payton is 579 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: a guy who even if he didn't think he was 580 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 2: a first round pick, he's a Day two pick. He's 581 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 2: now fallen into the later rounds. 582 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the linebacker position, Tony, a 583 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: position that I think the NFL is dying for some 584 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: real talent of that off ball interior linebacker spot. Who 585 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 1: are two guys that have really kind of stepped up 586 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 1: this year, which. 587 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: Is kind of funny because it's been so ignored and 588 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 2: dismissed and marginalized in recent years. I mean, Nick Martin 589 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 2: of Oklahoma State was on fire early in the season 590 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 2: until he injured his game, injured his knee five games 591 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 2: in forty seven tackles in five games, seven and a 592 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 2: half tackles for lost. A guy who made plays up 593 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,639 Speaker 2: the field, a guy who may plays in pursuit. He 594 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: was all over the place. She couldn't stop and he 595 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 2: was absolutely explosive. Will have to see what happens with 596 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: that right knee injury. I know they haven't ruled him 597 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 2: out for the rest of the season. Although Oklahoma State 598 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: is not having a good campaign, but a guy who 599 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: you know, really came out of nowhere. Not much was 600 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: expected from him, and he showed himself to be a 601 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 2: real good three down linebacker, not just up the field, 602 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 2: but also in space. And then Sonny styles of Ohio State. 603 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 2: The former safety six forty pounds runs in the four 604 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 2: six is fifty seven tackles this year, really learning to 605 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 2: play more up in the box in a confined area 606 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 2: as opposed to roaming the field. That safety has shown 607 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 2: a lot of improvement in his game and he's got 608 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 2: outstanding measurables. 609 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the defensive back position, Tony, 610 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: a position where I think NFL teams always looking for corners? 611 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: Are you are four guys here that you've liked the 612 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: work that they've put in this year. 613 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: And then primarily safeties as opposed to corners. So you go. 614 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 2: You start off with Xavier Scott of Illinois. I mean 615 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: Illinois in recent years has become almost you know DBU 616 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 2: if you will. They put so many good defensive backs 617 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 2: into the league. Xavier Scott three interceptions, seven pass breakups 618 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 2: this year. A year ago he had thirteen pass breakups. 619 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 2: When I watched the summer of the film over the summer, 620 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 2: I was like, who is this guy constantly making plays 621 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 2: on the ball. It's getting to the point where opposing 622 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: quarterbacks don't even throw in his direction. Now, the thing 623 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 2: with Scott is it's probably not going to measure much 624 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 2: more than five foot ten. He's not going to hit that. 625 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 2: You know that that six foot even mark that a 626 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: lot of teams want. Does that downgrade his draft stock 627 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 2: a little bit? I'll tell you what he is. An 628 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 2: outstanding cover corner, can play bump and run, can play 629 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: his zone, can play back off the want of scrimmage. 630 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 2: Nick and min Wari somebody have mentioned before same. These 631 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: two guys kind of fit in the same old Nick 632 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 2: Eminawari of South Carolina, Malik Verdon of Iowa winebacker size safeties. 633 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 2: I mean, these are guys. These are guys who go 634 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 2: six to two hundred and fifteen, two hundred and twenty pounds. 635 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna worry of South Carolina sixty tackles, six uh 636 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 2: pass breakups, four interceptions, two TVs. Uh At Verden of 637 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 2: of Iowa States got fifty eight tackles, five pass breakups. 638 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 2: They're not natural free safeties. They're more I don't want 639 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 2: to say traditional strong safeties, but I think they're guys 640 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 2: that you can use in sort of a zone system. 641 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: If you're gonna play, if you're gonna use your safeties 642 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 2: to cover a third the field, they can do that. 643 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: Playing downhill. They've got excellent cover skills. I mean, you 644 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: just look at the numbers, you watch the film. They 645 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: can cover. They're not a liability and coverage. The question 646 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 2: is will teams see them as safeties or potential one 647 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 2: gap linebackers. But they're real good football players. Isaiah and 648 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 2: the KOBEI of SMU kind of gets lost in the shuffle. 649 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 2: He's more of your natural safety. Sixty four tackles this 650 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 2: year shows a lot of ball skills. All those guys 651 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 2: that I just mentioned as junior, starting with Scott, I 652 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 2: think there's a good chance that all of them entered 653 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: the draft. Maybe Noah Kobe I go from SMU goes 654 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 2: back to school, but these are all guys who I 655 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 2: think are top one, one hundred and twenty five talents, 656 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: with Xavier Scott being someone who could potentially fit into 657 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: the late part of round one. 658 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: And I guess I should not surprise us, Tony that 659 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: the one guy on your slider list for defensive backs 660 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: as Ohio State corner Denzel Brook. We've talked about the 661 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: last few weeks that has has the issues covering some 662 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: of the better receivers in college football, and you know this. 663 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 2: Seems to be a true addition with Ohio State. You know, 664 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 2: you get a highly rated cornerback who's going to enter 665 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 2: his final year in college and then he disappoints. We've 666 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 2: seen Eli Apple, You've seen all these guys who you 667 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 2: know don't play well there last year in college, and 668 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 2: Denzel Burke has just gotten beaten time and time again. 669 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 2: You watch the Denzel Burk in twenty twenty three, and 670 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 2: he was a much better cornerback a year ago than 671 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 2: he was this year, making plays to the ability to 672 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 2: make plays with his back to the ball, not getting burnt. 673 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 2: It's not been a good year for Denzel Burke, who 674 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: a lot of people, including myself, thought had first round potential. 675 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: But I think right now you're looking at best the 676 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 2: third round prospect. 677 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: Those are riders in sliders, risers and sliders. On defense, Tony, 678 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: before we say goodbye, Tony, what is your overall take 679 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball of this draft class. 680 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: Where are the strengths, worthy the weaknesses, and what do 681 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: you think of the group in general? 682 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 2: I like the defensive line. I like the defensive tackle class. 683 00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 2: I think there was some solid, solid edge rushers. The 684 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 2: linebacker class is gonna be disappointing. But that's because I 685 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 2: think the position has been marginalized to a large extent. 686 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: You know, they take these undersized guys and rather them 687 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 2: using them as linebackers, they use them up the field 688 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 2: as pass rushers. I think the cornerback class is questionable. 689 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 2: I liked it coming into the season, but I think 690 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 2: there's also there have been some you know, uninspired play, 691 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 2: like I mentioned with denzil Burke. Your top two guys 692 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 2: are injured right now, so we're gonna have to wait 693 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 2: and see what happens with the cornerback position, which is questionable. 694 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: All right, can't wait to see it. So next week 695 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: I already have its scheduled. We're gonna have Dan Brugler 696 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 1: join us.
