1 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: At least he's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt 2 00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Williamson on your home of the Black and Gold, Steelers 3 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: Nation Radio. We are back. This is uh the Drive 4 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: on Steelers Nation Radio. I'm Dale Lolly here with my 5 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,959 Speaker 1: Mike Williamson. Mike Willis, I'm thinking about six different things. 6 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: It's Matt Williams, and of course it's the Drive. But Matt, 7 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm looking here. I got a kind of a rough 8 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: draft of of pro day schedules. They're starting to leak 9 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 1: out here. I've been adding to this as they've as 10 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: I've gotten the information here. Really things kick off on 11 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: March fifth. Maybe there'll be some other ones added here 12 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: earlier than that. But then you look over there, like 13 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: between March five and April nine is really when the 14 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: pro day schedule starts to really heat up here. And 15 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: the thing that that obviously there are more than what 16 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: is that the thirty four days or whatever a period 17 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: of time there where you know teams are really going 18 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: to have to pick and choose where they go to 19 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: this year, you only send one right per team? Is 20 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,839 Speaker 1: that still the rules? I don't know that that's gonna 21 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: be necessarily be that you could send when We talked 22 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: to Kevin Colwood earlier in the week. He said that 23 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: he and Mike Tomlin they like to go to the 24 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: pro days together. As I say, it's be hard for 25 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: those guys to get to all of you. You'll send 26 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: that area scout to each one. But they're gonna have 27 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: to do some real travel planning. And he said they'll 28 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: they'll have to pick and choose where they go depending 29 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: on They have to be very you know, you have 30 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: to look at it really closely because you want to 31 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: go to to the days where you know you're gonna 32 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: see the most prospects. Yeah, and of course the most 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: prospects is really important. But the right prospect and the 34 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: right right and the right people there is you know, 35 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: new old line coach is gonna be busy, you know, 36 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: I mean those type of things he can. Can he 37 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: be at Alabama and Oklahoma at the same time. And 38 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: travel now is harder than ever two and it's gonna 39 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: be a lot of planes and things that everyone was 40 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: avoiding for a long time too. Oh by the way, 41 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: you know, and like you said, Kevin and coach Tomlin 42 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: like to be at these things more than a lot 43 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: of gms and head coaches, they're gonna be spread thinner 44 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: or miss more than they usually do. And the beauty 45 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: of them kind of like I mentioned like pro days 46 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: are fine, but their scripted. You know, we saw Lawrence 47 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: throw on air and fine, we know he throws the 48 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: ball well, but there's a lot of people in the building, 49 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: you know, like Tomlin's gonna pull Saban aside and talking 50 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: you know what you're talking. Yeah, there's gonna be a 51 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: lot of rumors and in ormation that you don't see 52 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: on tape. So that kicks off on March fifth. Kansas 53 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 1: is the first one on schedule. That's the only one 54 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: on that day. Uh March nine is Kansas State, so 55 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: you can stay in the Midwest. Not exactly two hot 56 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: beds though.

They you're looking at 60 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: North Dakota State with obviously the quarterback a high high 61 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: rated offensive tackle there. Um Oklahoma obviously you know, if 62 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: you're going to Creed Humphrey H. Pitt will hold it's 63 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: uh pro day on Wednesday, March seventeen. They're the only 64 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: ones on that day.

Uh. March twenty two 74 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: another big day. Colorado State, Florida State, Iowa, Toledo. Jeez, 75 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: I wonder this is really interesting. But I wonder when 76 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: you and I get the numbers from the media, we're 77 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 1: not gonna gets NFL dot Like, is the NFL gonna 78 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: fish officially released numbers? Because Pro Day numbers in general, 79 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: I don't always try. You don't trust them in right 80 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: and let alone the different tracks and all that. Like, 81 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: we've be able to trust these heights weights just from 82 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: where you and I stand to evaluate these guys, I wonder, yeah, 83 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: the next day that's on that That previous one was 84 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: on a Monday, on Tuesday, March Central, Michigan, Alabama, Iowa State, Nebraska, Perdue. 85 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: I think we can pretty much pencil Mike Tomlin and 86 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: Kevin Colverden for the Alabama Pro Day, no question. But 87 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: like Rondel Moore is one of my favorites. Yeah, you 88 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: get somebody's gonna go see him and he's on. You 89 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 1: send your receiver coach up there and say hey, we're 90 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: we're you know, we're trusting you with this, right. I mean, 91 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: somebody's going to be in that building. I'm sure the 92 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: Purdue area scout will be there for that game for that, 93 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: but everyone wants to be Obama like it. I did this. 94 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: I mean I organized one pro day in my acron 95 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: career and we were new and neither one us had 96 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: a ton of players. So I called the guy at 97 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: Kent because I just got hired and I know what 98 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: I was doing. Can we combine our pro days? So 99 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: we did? But which makes sense? You're right next to 100 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: each other, you know, I said, we do in our 101 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: building or yours? They volunteers. We did in theirs and great, Um, 102 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: that makes perfect sense. It's one stop shopping as opposed 103 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: of someone going to one or the other or skipping them. 104 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: But I would have been really mad if I was 105 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: an actor and player and I broke the news. Hey, 106 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: you know we're gonna have this. We're gonna have ours. 107 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: On the nineteen. That happens to be the same day 108 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: as BAMAS, Like, yeah, great, fantastic March is Michigan State 109 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: in South Carolina. Now Michigan State doesn't have as many 110 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: prospects this year, but the big TENN Scott will be there. 111 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: March another busy day. It's a Thursday, Western Michigan, U Mass, 112 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: North Texas, Mississippi, SMU, Penn State, San Diego State, and 113 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:43,559 Speaker 1: Western Michigan said Western Michigan twice. But still there's seven 114 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: or eight school all the same day. Yeah, that's a 115 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: that's a huge one. March again. The next day after that, 116 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: b Y U, Boston College, Virginia Tech, South Dakota State, 117 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: Michigan a full agenda.

So 120 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: does b YU know the quarterback? It could be a 121 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: second pick in the draft. You know, Virginia Tech is 122 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: that day. Virginia Tech got a bunch of guys like that. 123 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: That's the day right there. Like you're gonna really have 124 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: to decide where's Kevin gonna be on that one? Where's 125 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: coach on that?

Is this 170 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: only know they only have one shot to run. Looks 171 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: like that's gonna be it. I think it's unless unless 172 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: you know you do so poorly that you you know, 173 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: you say, hey, we want to get the he rans 174 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: he had a hamstring or something like that, because you 175 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: see that happen to he was. He's not gonna run 176 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: then because it has a hamstring. So we're gonna do 177 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: another combine for We'll have them come back and run 178 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: in two weeks. Things of that nature. That's hard on 179 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: the teams. Well, now we've gotta get someone down there, 180 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: even though Louisville and Florida have the same on the 181 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: same day, just for one player, especially for the you know, 182 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: if you didn't play last year, if you didn't play 183 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: last year, right, you've been practicing this stuff all along, 184 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: and we haven't seen this guy's face in a million years. 185 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: Like if you're especially like let's say you're one of 186 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: these guys who played at the one of the FCS 187 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: teams schools, Well, they're playing in the spring right right, 188 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: like they're they're starting their practices now to get ready 189 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: to play a spring season season. You know, so you 190 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: haven't seen him playing a year, and all of a sudden, 191 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: now you know, coaches are worried about next year. Trade 192 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: Lance shows up at at South Dakota or North Dakota 193 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: State's pro day and he can't run or he can't 194 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: you know, something's wrong. Yeah, yeah, I'm just not up 195 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: to it today or hit you know whatever. Whatever. So 196 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: many obstacles, so it's gonna be crazy. It's gonna be crazy. 197 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: And I would imagine I always think about this like 198 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: over the next last two years, and hopefully it ends 199 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: this draft season and we don't have to deal with 200 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: the going forward. But when the world gets back to normal, 201 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: assuming it does, what good lessons did we learn from this? 202 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: You know that maybe we don't need to scout on 203 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: the road all the time, or maybe we can do 204 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: X y Z virtually, or maybe the draft can be 205 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: a little more virtual. What what's scouting advances? What we make? 206 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: I just think to me, I think the meetings part 207 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: of it. We have to have everybody come in, and hey, 208 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: we need everybody to fly in this weekend. You're probably right. 209 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: I mean I want to do that. If I'm considering 210 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: trade lance verse justin fields, I want them both in 211 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: my building for the day so I can make a choice. 212 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: But the third and fourth round type guys maybe not. 213 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: You know, uh, switching gears here we get Todd McShay 214 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: updated his top thirty two. Yeah today, so let's let's 215 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: roll through the real quick Obviously still has Trevor Lawrence 216 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: number one. Move Jamar Chase up from number five number two. 217 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to ruin things, as we're gonna record 218 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: receivers soon, but I've done more Chase homework and wow, 219 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: he's really good. Yeah. Pay Sewell moves down from two 220 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: to three. The offensive tackle lot of Oregon. Uh. Number 221 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: four moving down a spot from three, Micah Parsons. He 222 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 1: likes Micah Parsons a lot more than I think a 223 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: lot A lot of people think Daniel Jeremiah is really 224 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: high on him too. Um, he's kind of to me. 225 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: He's a lot like High Tower from New England, but 226 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: more athletic. But he's another one we haven't seen him 227 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: in a long time. What's he? Yeah? Uh, Number five 228 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: moving up from eight is Zack Wilson. He seems to 229 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: be gaining steam And I don't know if there's Vegas 230 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: odds on this, but I think he's clearly the leader 231 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: to be the second quarterback taken as at least with 232 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: the rumors around right now. Yeah, Number six remains Kyle 233 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: Pitts the tight end, A special players that that bother 234 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: you with him, Like he's never gonna be a blocker. 235 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: He's never gonna be a blocker. I think he's a 236 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: special receiving weapon. I think it does him a little 237 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: bit of a disservice to have a t next to 238 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: his game. Just don't even worry about that. Like he's 239 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: he's Plexico Burrow sized, right, I mean he's Claypool's side. Yeah, yeah, 240 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: right right, Uh, number seven down from four, Davonte Smith. 241 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: He worries me. He just just leaning. He's yeah, great player, 242 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 1: he's just a little lean Number eight up from seventeen. 243 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: Big jump Rashawn Slater, Yeah, the offensive lineman at the 244 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: Northwestern Okay, I mean I wonder what Todd's logic of 245 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: he must, really he must and when he when he 246 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: initially looked at and he probably looked at the size 247 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: of okay, six four three oh eight, probably kicks inside 248 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: the guard. I think now that he's done a little 249 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: study on him, you know, he probably looks and he says, okay, 250 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: he can play tackle. He's an elite feet and really 251 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: really light on his feet every even because you don't 252 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: take a guard at eight and he's unless us yeah right, 253 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 1: right right. And he's not a Quintin Nelson type. Um. 254 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: Even when I just heard about Slater for the first time, 255 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: I heard people even talking about maybe even center, you know, 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: just he could be that. I guess that's a nice 257 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 1: way of a fallback plan. Yeah if he if I 258 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: look at look at him as a left tackle and 259 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't quite work out, he'll be somewhere else for me, 260 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: Number nine down from seven is Patrick Certain the cornerback 261 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: out of Alabama. I'm mu sure testing will do him 262 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: a lot of favors. I mean he's a basically it 263 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: coaches him. He's a player's son. But I mean he's 264 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: really got a head for the game. Where Farley the 265 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: other corner, I think we'll test better. And he's next. 266 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: He's moved up from eighteen to ten from Virginia Tech. Uh. 267 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: They're both big corners. I mean that's what when you're 268 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: drafting a guy in the first round these days at 269 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: the cornerback position, he better be six one, A minimum 270 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: is six one and come in and around two pounds. 271 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: And they almost always are the rams and Patrick Peterson's 272 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: That's what was odd about the Browns year with Denzel 273 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: Award or or Dorri Jackson. Dorri Jackson mean those guys 274 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 1: are that those are the outliers. Are the outliers. I 275 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: mean they took Ward and Baker both in the top 276 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: five and both were small for their position. Yeah, like okay, 277 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: I mean they're they're not bad players something, but it 278 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: was an odd move. Uh. Number eleven holding steadies Jalen Waddell. Yeah, 279 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: I like Wattle a lot, a lot, uh, twelve up 280 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: from twenty two Trey Lance, Yeah, and I get it. Yeah, 281 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: I would. I would take a shot on him. And 282 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: I see, I don't know if I like I Okay, 283 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: if I'm sitting there and he's on the board with 284 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: the twelfth pick, which I don't think he will be um, 285 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: but okay, I'll make that pick. I don't want to 286 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: have to trade up to go get him, though, Like 287 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: I bet he doesn't get past Carolina. Yeah, like there's 288 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: a lot of job security. They have their bridge water 289 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: in place, you know, Like that's a great spot for me. Yeah, 290 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to give up 291 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: like next year's first round draft pick for guy moving 292 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: up from the FCS who didn't play last year. That's 293 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: too many, too many variables in the you're in Chicago 294 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: or New England or Washington, and you've got to move 295 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: from this first and next year's first that's thirteen down 296 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: from nine. Is justin fields. There has been I would 297 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: say negative buzz, but right now he's not exactly trending 298 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: in the right direction from the draft knicks in the 299 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: draft community. I think he's loaded with ability, but he's 300 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: not one of He's not Dwayne Haskins. No, Dwayne Haskins 301 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: started one year at Ohio State. Dwayne Haskins couldn't move 302 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: like justin fields. It's not even close. I mean justin fields. 303 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: One touchdown passes and three interceptions and this year was 304 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: odd and yeah, but he's still in six games at 305 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: twenty two touchdown passes and complete his passes. I mean, 306 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: he's a pretty darn clean prospect, is And I think 307 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: the one thing people overlook too is Ohio State, especially 308 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: late in the year, he got really hit hard with COVID, 309 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: Like a lot of their guys were an eligible to 310 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: play on game day and what's that duty practice? You know, 311 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: that's a hard situation. I mean we even saw it, 312 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: you know, with the Steelers having to change things around 313 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: for the you know, the Ravens game and things like that. 314 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: I think there's a bigger effect on teams that people realize. Yeah. 315 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: Uh at fourteen down from twelve. He has Jeremiah A. 316 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: Wosu co Orma uh from Notre Dame, the inside linebackers, 317 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: two inside linebackers in the top fourteen. Yeah, he's not 318 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: a traditional inside like he doesn't look at anything like Parsons. 319 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,479 Speaker 1: In fact, I think I told six two to twenty 320 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: probably comes in six one to ten. People tell me 321 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: that he played or right around two pounds. That will 322 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: hurt him if he's if that's true, But boy, he 323 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: flies around the field. And I think somebody tweeted us 324 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: the other day. Would you consider him at twenty four? Yes? Yeah, 325 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: you know, I mean somebody's asked me about People have 326 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: asked me about this next guy as well, and I 327 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't consider this guy even though he's a good player, 328 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: uh down from fourteen he has at fifteen he is 329 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: Trevor Mowring at a TCU. I would not Yeah, I 330 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: mean he's six to two o eight. There's really no 331 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: difference there, you know, between the two. But you've got 332 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: two young safeties and he has a safety, you know, 333 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: where the other guy is more of a linebacker overhang guy, 334 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: more comfortable near the line of scrimmage. Yeah, I mean 335 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't go defense there. But if he's much 336 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: better than the other dudes on the board, somebody that 337 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: that might be your trade back option. Could somebody wants 338 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: to move up and get that safety? Uh sixteen Gregory Rousso, 339 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: the defensive end out of Miami. That's down from well, 340 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: that's exactly the same sixteen. I think he's easily the 341 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: best edge got six seven to fifty three. I mean 342 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: he's yeah, that's that's screams like the fourth three end 343 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: that they can you know, you know here, Paul, Yeah, 344 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: there's a lot of those type of comparisons. Speaking of 345 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: which his teammate is Eric seventeen up from thirty one 346 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: Jalen Phillips, Uh six have to sixty six. Could you 347 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: imagine if you're like Miami's defensive coordinator and be like, 348 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,639 Speaker 1: we could have had those two all you know what 349 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like having it's like having two power 350 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: forwards right right right? Uh eighteen Quitty pay defensive end 351 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: out of Michigan six three to seventy. He was not 352 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: ranked before. Now he's in at number eighteen. It's not 353 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: like his tape gut any better. Six and a half 354 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: sacks in two thousand nineteen, two sacks and four games 355 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,360 Speaker 1: this season this season. These Michigan defensive linemen keep coming 356 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: out in the draft. Yeah and and and like, whoa, 357 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: he's really good. But he didn't have any numbers top 358 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: recruiting the country types that tests like crazy. I don't 359 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: what to do with those guys. I have a problem 360 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: taking Like I would not spend the first round, first 361 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: round draft pick on a guy who didn't have college production. 362 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: Bud was kind of that guy, though he had college production. 363 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: Though he had ten sackses last year. Yeah, he but 364 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: he was he was a c ball hit you know, 365 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: hit ball kind of guy. You know. But I can't 366 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: take a guy who's, well, he's a top athlete, but 367 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 1: in two sacks in college. Like, I haven't studied him, 368 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,120 Speaker 1: but I was listening to that good you should get 369 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: you should do more that. They were really critical of 370 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: how hardball used them. They bumped them inside a lot. 371 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: They didn't let him rush off the edge. Some guys 372 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: just need to do one thing and just leave him there. 373 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 1: I don't know just what I've heard about him. Yeah, 374 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: I I just have a problem with that, right, I mean, 375 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: you're the most athletic guy in the field and you're 376 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: at Michigan playing Indiana. You should have two sacks, you know. 377 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: Clayson was that last year, like yeah, yeah, uh nineteen 378 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: uh not ranked before Darius Tony I've read of Florida. 379 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: He is a Percy Harvin yeah, you know, running kind 380 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: of kind of a bigger Tyreek Hill. Yeah, jack of 381 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: all trades. You're right, needs to go to the right spot, 382 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: you know. But he played, he played. He was a 383 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: quarterback in high school. Highly rated quarterback. They tried him 384 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: at running back and receiver. A great year. I mean 385 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 1: you could do a lot of different things with him. 386 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: I wonder what a guy like that would like look 387 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: like at a MATC Canada offense. It would be ideal. Yeah, 388 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: I love him. I'm sure number twenty up from twenty seven. 389 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: Nauger Harris gain and steam a little gaining a little 390 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: bit of steam. Yeah, my hunches. Somebody told Todd he's 391 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a first round pick. Yeah, he's gonna go. Well, 392 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: he'll go somewhere between the Steelers and in uh in Miami, 393 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: and Miami's at eighteen in Pittsburgh's at four. So he 394 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: puts him with twenty. Maybe I look better those guys 395 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: do that. Twenty one Elijah Vera Tucker. He was not 396 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: rated before he comes in at twenty one. The guard 397 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: out of USC. They listened as a guard. He also 398 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: played tackle at USC. Yeah, I mean I would imagine 399 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: he will start his career at tackle. Yeah, and I 400 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: think his name will be thrown around twenty four plenty 401 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, he's not six six, I mean that's 402 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: the guard thing. Yeah, he's got a really good player 403 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: and had a great year. Um helld four pressures in 404 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: two sacks and eight pass block snacks over the last 405 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: two seasons. That's pretty strong. Two up down from nineteen 406 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: Travis A. T n Okay, Yeah, I mean I'm curious 407 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: where he lands. If they're gonna throw him a lot 408 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: of screens and let him go great, Um, if they're 409 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 1: not gonna, If we're gonna ask him to play every 410 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: snap and run him into the line of scrimmage, you 411 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: probably won't do well, but really productive. Yeah. Uh. Twenty 412 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: three down from fifteen Zaven Collins, the outside linebacker at 413 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: Tulsa sixty. He's more bud like. Yes, he can play 414 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: off the ball as well. Someone's gonna like him. I 415 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: bet the Patriots love him. Eight games this year, fifty 416 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: three tackles, eleven and a half tackles for a loss, 417 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: four sacks, four interceptions, and that's pretty you know, the 418 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: sack numbers may not be exactly what you want, but 419 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: four interceptions is he kind of reminds me of Jamie 420 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: Collins more than Bud to be nice with you, real 421 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: long limber. You know that he could maybe be your 422 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: Ninkovic type guy in the Patriot Van Noyle, more athletic 423 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: than those four. And again, this is a guy if 424 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: he were available for the Steelers, I would sprint to 425 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: the podium if i'm if I'm them, he's down from 426 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: twenty three. Christian Derrisaw. Yeah, I think he's the slam dun. 427 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 1: He's a natural left tackle. That's his that's his spot. 428 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: He's also really physical, he's not young and young and experience. 429 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think he's the one and nasty and 430 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,239 Speaker 1: everything everything you want in your left tackle. I think 431 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: you run behind him on third and one, you know 432 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: what I mean. I'm kind of surprised, like he's not 433 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: rated higher. It's a true left tackle right right. These 434 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: other guys ahead of him better be really special. Yeah, 435 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: and if the if the if the board fell this 436 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: way again, I think he's a twenty four here. But 437 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: he's the one that you you don't hesitate and right 438 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,239 Speaker 1: you forget. I don't care who else is on the 439 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: on the board here, We're taking Christian Derrisaw That might 440 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: have to be one of our rules when we do 441 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: our mock drafts and stuff too. There take him, don't 442 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 1: right back? You take him right? I mean, it would 443 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: be a nice guy to add to the equation for sure. 444 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: Five not rated before Levi on Nozarique, the defensive tackle 445 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: out of Washington, another guy that opted out more of 446 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: a three technique type. Um did some good things at 447 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. I would imagine that was if I'm 448 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: Todd and he's not an easy rousseau Michael Parsons guy, 449 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 1: I at least get to see him at the Senior Bowl. 450 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: Now I can put him back in my soft tough 451 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: when a guy doesn't play and he plays defensive tackle 452 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: on it, you know? Six? Uh again? Not a guy 453 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: who was not rated. Yeah. Jalen Mayfield, the offensive tackle 454 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 1: out of Michigan. Michigan has good players, not a good record, 455 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 1: Yeah right. I think you play left or right, you 456 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: can play guard. Not super nimble, but a pretty good athlete. 457 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: He's a plug and play guy. Ye I bet he's 458 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: a raven. I bet Jim calls John and says, taking 459 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: Mayfield and he will either be Orlando Brown's replacement or 460 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: he's still there. Right, he looks like a raven twenty 461 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: seven not rated J. C. Horn cornerback out of South Carolina. 462 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: He's now seven. He's also I mean, I think Farley 463 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: and certain or fighting for the first corner. It really 464 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 1: looks like Horns got a chance to be a guaranteed 465 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: third corner. Yeah. And if you're the third corner, typically 466 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: you do go in the first round, the first round, 467 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: right five? Dad, You know Dad was an NFL player 468 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: up from thirty two Mac Jones. Okay, I think he's 469 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: gonna be a first round pack. He's gaining some steam 470 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: and he's gonna he's not gonna last. I don't think 471 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 1: it last. Twenty four. Yeah, I don't think he falls 472 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: that for quarter wherever he has the quarterbacks on this list, 473 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: bump them up at least ten spots if they if 474 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: they can go that high, because that's where they're gonna go. 475 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: Do you think he could be a Patriot? And I 476 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,719 Speaker 1: think the Saban Belichick connection is strong, but I think 477 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: the Patriots might have to trade up to get him. Wow, 478 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: don't their fifteen. But I think some of those other 479 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: quarterback needy teams and who are in the teens, Chicago 480 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: or you know, a team like that might might jump 481 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: up picks after him. They went to the playoffs. That's 482 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. They may jump up ahead of them 483 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: to go Washington because once those first four quarterbacks go, 484 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, three teams the one guy 485 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: and so somebody, somebody gets aggressive. It wouldn't blow me away. 486 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: I'm not predicting it, but because they coached him at 487 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, he might be the eighth pick in 488 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: the draft, especially if four going to top five. I 489 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: think once once more that he wants more of that 490 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: athletic right. I think they could be a team that 491 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: gets to three year you know, and I think Miami 492 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: will be open for business. They just cleared a bunch 493 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: of cap space too. They're getting ready to make some move. 494 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: They're gonna do stuff. They're gonna be very aggresive this offseason. 495 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: Twenty nine not rated as he's a large I should say, 496 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: outside linebacker from George Georgia. I think he'll be a 497 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: first round pick too, thirty previous ranking twenties, so he's 498 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 1: falling a little bit. That'd be Christian Barmore, the defensive 499 00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 1: tackle out of Alabama. Okay, I mean really good um. 500 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: Last two games we saw him were pretty darn strong. 501 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: I think he's got a really good chance to be 502 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 1: the first events tackle off the board thirty one. Previous 503 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: ranking twenty five. So he's moved down, Joe try on 504 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: the defensive end that of Washington. He's to me he'd 505 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: be a good Steeler. Not that they were gonna use 506 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: the picture. He just walked to them a lot and 507 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: early on in the process. Six fifty two looks the part. Yeah, 508 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,959 Speaker 1: he looks like a three or four outside linebacker, steeler 509 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: type edge guy. Yeah, uh, thirty two. Last guy on 510 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: the list here he was not rated. That would be 511 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: Nick Bolton, the inside linebacker. Linebacker at a Missouri six 512 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: ft two thirty two makes a ton of plays, Yeah, 513 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 1: just all over the field. Not the biggest guy, but 514 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: a third inside linebacker. Do you think maybe he changed 515 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: after watching the Super Bowl and seeing the impact that 516 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 1: that that those two inside backers made in that game, like, hey, 517 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: we better bump some refer the inside linebackers maybe getting 518 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: a little more important than it used to be. Would 519 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: you consider one of twenty four? I would consider it, Dame, 520 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't consider Yeah, I wouldn't do it, But I 521 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: would consider it. I definitely want to address that in 522 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: the first four rounds of the draft because you can 523 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,719 Speaker 1: get typically and maybe maybe this year changes, but typically 524 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: you can get those, well he's an athletic, but a 525 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: little bit light in the pants or something like that. 526 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 1: There's something, you know, maybe he's just a nickel linebacker 527 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: or whatever. You know, work in progress. It's been a 528 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: lot of those. You know, even like William G Jr. 529 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: For the Chiefs, like his tape was hit or miss, 530 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: but he went second. Yeah it was, and his rookie 531 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: year was so so, but more like a little more disappointing. 532 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: But you knew that. I mean, that's that's been the 533 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: norm for these inside linebackers there get you gotta play man, 534 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 1: you gotta play zone. You know, all of a sudden, 535 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: now you've got guards firing out and hitting you that 536 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: you you know you stayed covered up in college because 537 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: well it's crossing routes and play action and all this 538 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: recognition stuff. That quarterbacks are smarter the office, the coordinators 539 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: are smarter. They'll scheming up the pick on you, and 540 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna pick on you to begin with. So it's 541 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: a really hard position to transition to kind of like 542 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: the same thing as tight ends. You've got to do 543 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: a lot of reading and reacting on the fly. Yeah, 544 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: it's it's certainly more of a mental position than people realize. 545 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: And just because you have the physical skills and can 546 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: run doesn't mean that you're in the right place at 547 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: the right time for a while. So anyways, we're gonna 548 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for for this segment. So for 549 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: my partner Matt Williamson, for Jacob here in site keeping 550 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: us on the air, I'm Dale Lally.
