1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: A late fifteen to ten touched up sucker.

2
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: What's up, guys, Welcome in to a draft day edition

3
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 2: of Chargers Weekly. We're taping this a day later than

4
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: we normally do because we don't want to date ourselves money.

5
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 2: We had a lot to get into. Quintin Johnson is

6
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: a Charger. I first want to start by complimenting you

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: and Adrian for hosting a heck of a party at Westfield.

8
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 3: It's a lot of fun. Really, it was easy for

9
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 3: me just because we had great energy. Charger fans are incredible.

10
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 3: It's the West Side is not easy to navigate, and

11
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 3: we know that it's in the giant mall.

12
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: They were able to find us.

13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 3: The Chargers did a great job of setting up a

14
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 3: really cool, felt like a backyard in the middle of

15
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 3: the Westfield Mall. You know, bars all over the place,

16
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 3: great food and you know, good entertainment.

17
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: So it was it was easy.

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 3: The energy was there, The fact that all these guys

19
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 3: came out, you know, justin Herbert Derwin, James Eric Kendricks,

20
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 3: Antonio Gates, Ladania. To have Ladanian Tomlinson on stage, how

21
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 3: about that when they made their selection, was just you

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,639
Speaker 3: can't you can't script that you know, the greatest player

23
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 3: in the history of TCU, and someone that's in the

24
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 3: conversation is the greatest charger ever is on stage when

25
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: they opt to pick a kid out of TCU. It

26
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 3: was really cool to be part of it, and it

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 3: was a lot of fun, and so kudos to everyone

28
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 3: that put it together, but especially because I had a

29
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 3: blast talking with the fans and all the people that

30
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: came out. I really really enjoyed it. I threw out

31
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 3: my arm because of all those stupid mini footballs that

32
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 3: weigh about six ounces apiece trying to get some velocity

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 3: behind it. My arm is dead today.

34
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 2: Dude, you had you literally had more passing attempts than

35
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 2: Justin Herbert had all season. Every time I looked up

36
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: at the stage, Money was throwing an out route of

37
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 2: posts a go.

38
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you, you know, the the elixir, the lubricant

39
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: of conversation. I had a single beer and then I

40
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 3: think everybody just felt like, oh, all right, well there's

41
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: no rules now, And next thing you know, I got

42
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 3: people asking for passes from two decks up, people way

43
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: in the back, and of course, being an idiot, I'm like,

44
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 3: I'll get it there and next thing, you know, I'm

45
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 3: just trying to figure out, all right, how do I

46
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 3: get this thing to sail? And managed to get a

47
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,239
Speaker 3: couple up to the third decks. I was pretty proud

48
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: of myself. But guess what I'm paying for it today,

49
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: paying forth, absolutely paying for it today.

50
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 2: You're right though, man, Hey, the fans make it. It's

51
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: always a pleasure catch it up with you guys. A

52
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: lot of listeners of the podcast, and we appreciate it

53
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 2: so very much. So much to get into, man, I mean,

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 2: the draft was was wild from the beginning, a lot

55
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 2: of unexpected picks. We'll get into the draft overall, but

56
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: at twenty one, overall, everything was lining up with what

57
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: we want for the Chargers.

58
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: Right.

59
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: The best tight end was available Jackson Smith and Jig,

60
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 2: but it was a guy that I didn't think, we.

61
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: Know, I never thought he was a Chargers.

62
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: So at twenty one overall, you had really your choice

63
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 2: of wide receiver and tight end, and they decide that

64
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: Quentin Johnston from TCU is the guy. Your reaction to

65
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: that pick, you know we mentioned him on the podcast.

66
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 2: I don't think we mentioned him as much as a

67
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 2: guy like Zay Flowers or Jordan Addison or Kincaid or Mayor,

68
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 2: but he's the guy.

69
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll be honest. I was surprised.

70
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 3: I was, But then when you start to unpack it

71
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 3: and think about it, you know, teams have types. There

72
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: are teams that you know, this is what they like.

73
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: And we talked about this last year with the Chiefs

74
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: when they moved on from Tyreek Hill and people were

75
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 3: saying that it's going to change the offense completely. And

76
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: I remember getting into this with you. We talked about

77
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: I think they looked at the Chargers and they were like, hey,

78
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: Keenan Allen sixty three, Mike Williams almost six for we

79
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 3: need bigger guys. You know, that's where this league is

80
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 3: headed is. And you look at what they have in

81
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 3: Cincinnati and what they've built, you know, with that trio

82
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: of receivers, they're all six foot two or taller, and

83
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 3: so sort of after my initial surprise, and we'll dig

84
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 3: into it, I have no problem. You know, we've been

85
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 3: talking about this for three months now and everybody knows

86
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 3: what my order was and that I never mentioned Quinton Johnston.

87
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 3: But I think that's sort of what ultimately this came

88
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: down to, is the Chargers, Tom Telesco, Brandon Staley. They

89
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 3: like big guys, that's what they want, and so they're

90
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 3: not interested in five foot ten, you know, Zay Flowers.

91
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 3: They're not interested in one hundred and seventy pound Jordan Addison.

92
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: They wanted the big body. And I think, you know,

93
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,799
Speaker 3: just to dig into it now, I don't think Quentin

94
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 3: Johnson has the same skills level of skills that Zay

95
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 3: Flowers does. But Jay Flowers is not six foot three

96
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 3: and capable of running you know, four five forty. So

97
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 3: there's you're you're gonna make trade offs. You know, there

98
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 3: are so few perfect receivers out there, so it's kind

99
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 3: of it's kind of a what do we want, what

100
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 3: do we like? What do we think is the most

101
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 3: effective with our quarterback with the scheme that we're gonna

102
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,559
Speaker 3: be calling. And clearly they wanted the big body because

103
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: that's the only that's That's just kind of the way

104
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 3: I break it down.

105
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:25,239
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's funny.

106
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 3: We were on stage and I said, Ladanian Tomlinson's up there,

107
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 3: and Dalton kin Kaid is available, and Michael Mayer's available,

108
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 3: and Zay Flowers is available and Jordan Addison's available, and

109
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 3: I'm like, holy crap, I cannot fulfill the draft propose

110
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 3: way and and LT's like, it's Zay Flowers. He's like,

111
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 3: it's Zay Flowers. They're gonna take Zay Flowers, you know.

112
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 3: And he's saying that on stage. And it was funny

113
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 3: just to see how excited he got when they took Quinton,

114
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 3: because I think nobody had projected Quinton to be you know,

115
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 3: I shouldn't say nobody. A lot of people liked him

116
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 3: more than I know. Chris Simms liked him a lot.

117
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: He was not a big Jordan Adison guy. J Flowers

118
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 3: was his favorite was, but I think Quinton was his

119
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: number two. So I don't think it was like it

120
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 3: wasn't a crazy pick at all. It wasn't o a

121
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: left field like I said, I think it's just one

122
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: of those This is the type of receiver that the

123
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 3: Chargers prefer, and they'll coach up. They think they can

124
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 3: coach up some of the issues, some of the things

125
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 3: that people had issues with. And I guess the one

126
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 3: that you can't. You can't coach five foot ten to

127
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 3: be six foot three. That doesn't work. You can't coach

128
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 3: Jordan Addison from one hundred and seventy pounds to two

129
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 3: hundred and ten pounds. That doesn't work either, So I

130
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 3: guess that's the way they look at it. We'd rather

131
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: have the body type and let's see if we can

132
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 3: fix the drops. Let's see if we can fix a

133
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 3: lot of those body catches and turn him into a

134
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 3: more complete receiver. You know, the guy's big play. I mean,

135
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: he had some explosive plays, big plays downfield, but I

136
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 3: think those were just kind of the concerns that you

137
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 3: assume they feel really good about being able to get

138
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 3: right and end up with this giant receiver that's super fast,

139
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 3: that's going to be a nightmare to cover.

140
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they they drafted his traits too right,

141
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: six ' three towo a weight. They talked about his suddenness,

142
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 2: his yards after the catch came up a lot. And

143
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 2: I was going back to DJ's top fifty. I think

144
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 2: it was his last top fifty. He compared Quentin Johnson

145
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 2: to Mike Williams. So they're building a basketball team, right,

146
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 2: They're building a basketball team with Everett and with Mike

147
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:33,559
Speaker 2: and Keenan and Palmer. So I look at the pick

148
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: and I go back to what you said last week,

149
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 2: and I think you summed it up perfectly. I think

150
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: they even used it for the promo. Justin Herbert makes

151
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: good wide receivers great, and he makes great wide receivers

152
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: all pros. I go back to twenty twenty, his rookie

153
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 2: year when t Billy was catching everything. Jalen Geiton was

154
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 2: becoming a household name because of Justin Herbert. So if

155
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: this guy can get open, and you know, if Keenan

156
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: or Myke is doubled and Quentin Johnson can get open

157
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: and they can kind of use him in situations that

158
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: maximize his potential, I think they got a really good pick,

159
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 2: and I have to I'd be remiss by to mention

160
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: Kellen Moore. You know, Kellen Moore probably had a big

161
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 2: say in the wide receiver that he preferred and he

162
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 2: wanted for his offense. So Quentin Johnson seems to fit

163
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 2: the bill. You know, we were talking about big twelve

164
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 2: receivers before we came on. Ceedee Lamb is a big

165
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: twelve receiver that had some success at the Dallas Cowboys

166
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 2: with Kellen Moore. So's it's interesting because these mock draft

167
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 2: exercises and we're consumed by this draft evaluation process, and

168
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 2: I think sometimes you know, we lock in on guys

169
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: that we like and other people like, and you don't know,

170
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 2: like you know, like we mentioned Zion Johnson last your

171
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 2: Money a little bit, but I don't think we actually

172
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: like said, okay, wow, this could be a reality. You know,

173
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: we were talking about Jameson Williams and some of these

174
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: other guys. So it's exciting to kind of see it

175
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: come to life. I was very surprised that a guy

176
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 2: like Dalton Kinkaid blew with the Buffalo Bills well and

177
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 2: get to that.

178
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 3: They were like, we're not waiting go get them, and man,

179
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 3: they got to play Chargers, have to play them in

180
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 3: the regular season. If they want to get to the

181
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 3: super Bowl, very well, may have to play in the playoffs.

182
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 3: I really, you know how I feel about that guy.

183
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 3: And I know tight end is not a premium position

184
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 3: like wide receiver is money.

185
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: Real quick.

186
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: This is my this is my thought on that on

187
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 2: that position. There's so many good guys that are gonna

188
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: go today. Right, Michael Mayer didn't get drafted in the

189
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 2: first round.

190
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: You talk about it, but I think I think Mayor

191
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 3: to me. And again, you know how I feel about Kinkaid.

192
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 3: To me, Kinkaid is on an island. I felt like

193
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 3: there was and I know there's people that are like,

194
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 3: oh no, I like Mayor more than King Kid, And

195
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 3: that's fine for me. Kin Kid is he's a unicorn.

196
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 3: He's Travis Kelcey. He's and again I'm biased, I get it,

197
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: but I just I cannot believe the league let him

198
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 3: go to the Bills. It's and that's the thing, like

199
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 3: you know, you you and you end up getting sort

200
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: of emotionally, it's confirmation bias, and now you have to

201
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 3: reset your confirmation bias. And it sounds terrible, but it's like, no,

202
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,599
Speaker 3: I want kink to be terrible now. I want to

203
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 3: be completely wrong about this because he's on the Bills.

204
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 3: I want Zay Flowers to continue to be a run

205
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 3: of terrible draft picks at the receiver position by the Ravens.

206
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: These are all.

207
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 3: AFC, Like the AFC is already stacked with with quarterbacks.

208
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 3: You have only six teams make the playoffs. Like I'm

209
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 3: just gonna let me quickly do a little exercise here.

210
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 3: Only six teams make the playoffs.

211
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: That's kind does anybody want it in the NFC. By

212
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 2: the way, besides THEA, does anybody want it?

213
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: Well, why even bother Nolan's the fact that freaking that

214
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 3: that somehow Nolan Smith lasted until thirty one and the

215
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 3: Eagles not Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith just.

216
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: Get rid of it.

217
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 3: That like that that the Eagles might as well be

218
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 3: my seven thousand to win the NFC. I don't know

219
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 3: how they freaking pull it off every year, but you

220
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 3: know what, it's it's what happens.

221
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: But and they got a tampering They got a tampering

222
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 2: pick from Arizona exactly.

223
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: So here's my thing. Let's count them.

224
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 3: Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, Deshaun Watson,

225
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence, Russell Wilson, Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert. That is

226
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 3: nine quarterbacks, three of them are not going to make

227
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 3: the playoffs. Nine quarterbacks, three aren't going to make the playoffs.

228
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 3: And now you're talking about Zay Flowers going to the Ravens.

229
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 3: You're talking about uh Dalton Kincaid going to the Bills.

230
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 3: And that's and those are two of our Thank goodness,

231
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 3: Bijeon ended up going to the Falcons.

232
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: You know, I was worried that.

233
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 3: I was, honestly, I had this weird little you know,

234
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 3: and I think the fact that Tyree Wilson slid a

235
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 3: little bit because of that Liz Frank injury to the Raiders,

236
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 3: that could be a nightmare him and Max Crosby, you know,

237
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: because we know Chandler Jones had some issues last year.

238
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 3: But I was starting to think about it. I was like, man,

239
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 3: I could totally see them taking Bijeon. It's the Patriots way.

240
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: It's you know, you zig we zag, you know, it's

241
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 3: let's let's just figure it out and and bring him in.

242
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: And we wasted a.

243
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: Lot of time on Bejeon. He wasn't gonna be there

244
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 2: twenty one.

245
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:33,920
Speaker 3: Ultimately, again, it almost always goes back to and I

246
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 3: hate saying it because it's such a weird word, but

247
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 3: it just goes back to the tape. Like when you

248
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 3: watch Bijon Robinson play football, it's like.

249
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: There's I don't care.

250
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 3: I have zero issue with what the position is and

251
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 3: the financial implication. It's like, well, you can't take a

252
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: guy that high because now he's one of the highest

253
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 3: paid running backs.

254
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't care. Arthur Smith's gonna hand him.

255
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: He's gonna touch the ball twenty five times a game.

256
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 2: Arthur Smith had Dereck Henry and Tennessee. He knows what

257
00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: AFC championship games.

258
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

259
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. How about Jamior Gibbs going to the Lions at twelve?

260
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 3: I was, I was a surprise when they signed David Montgomery.

261
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 3: They have DeAndre Swift. They like, yeah, al saw.

262
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 2: Somebody tweet this, and and and they're right when you

263
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: when you think about how it played out for the

264
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: Lions and the Eagles, the Lions could have had the

265
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 2: same exact hal that the Eagles got with Carter and

266
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,719
Speaker 2: and Nolan's got that if they just if they just

267
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 2: got a great call, you know, and and they got

268
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 2: they got an inside linebacker at a running back and

269
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 2: they had as they have a stud running back. I

270
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: know they lost Jamal Williams, but it's it's just Ey

271
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: the beholder man, like, we don't know. All thirty two

272
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 2: teams are different. They have a different evaluation, they have

273
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 2: a different philosophy, and that's how the draft plays out.

274
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 2: Like seeing seeing Gibbs at twelve, I was like, okay, man,

275
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 2: this is this is officially off the rails and it

276
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: was good for the Chargers, and that the wide receivers

277
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 2: and the tight ends kept slipping on. It goes to

278
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 2: me money that they wanted. They wanted John was their

279
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: number one receiver.

280
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 3: Clearly, It's very clearly, and that's fine. Like I said,

281
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 3: it's it's totally fine. They they you know more about

282
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 3: this than I do. They dig into it a lot deeper.

283
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 3: Teams have so much more information than we do that

284
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 3: there's just so much more available to them than than

285
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: we get. For me, I like to watch guys play games.

286
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 3: You know, I've been covering the draft for a long time,

287
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 3: and so I have some of these and it's probably

288
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: not healthy. I have some of these built in biases

289
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 3: about certain schools or certain conferences and how often we

290
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: see certain position groups perform at a high level in

291
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 3: the NFL.

292
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm I'm upfront with that.

293
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 3: I cop to that, you know, And that's part of

294
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 3: the bias that I have, you know, I like, I like.

295
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: Getting guys from the SEC. You know.

296
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 3: I think when you when you go through if you're

297
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 3: just to go through the stats and you know, if

298
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 3: I'll pull it up right now, like let's just go

299
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: through the receiving stats. So these are just biases that

300
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 3: you have to you have to get them away from you, right,

301
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 3: Like you've got to be able to separate, Like, Hey,

302
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 3: this guy could be the greatest receiver in the history

303
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 3: of football, but you've counted him out because he's in

304
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 3: the Big twelve. And you don't think the Big twelve

305
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 3: produces elite receivers. Like when I go through it, here's

306
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 3: SEC Tyreek Hill technically SEC before he got kicked out

307
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 3: of school and slipped to the fourth round becuse she

308
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 3: was a terrible person. Fresno State SEC. Stefan Diggs. I

309
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 3: think Maryland was ACC at the time. I don't think

310
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 3: they were Big ten. Yet there's CD Lambs, So there's

311
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 3: your Big twelve, Jalen Wattle SEC. Travis Kelce at eight

312
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 3: and like that's the whole outlier thing with Dalton Kincaid,

313
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 3: DeVante Smith SEC. Tara McLaurin Big ten A Monro Pac twelve,

314
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: Amari Cooper SEC, Mike Evans SEC.

315
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk.

316
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 3: Them don't count that although sec A and m Right,

317
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 3: Garrett Wilson, Ohio State DK, metcalf Ole, Miss Jamar Chase Lsu,

318
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: Chris alave Osu like that's you see where receivers are.

319
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 1: Made, you know.

320
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 3: So that's again it's just a bias. It's a it's

321
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 3: a pernicious seed that's planted in my brain that I've

322
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 3: got to be able to ignore because again, I think

323
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 3: the best comparison and we talked about it last night,

324
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 3: Chris is look at what the Bengals have and look

325
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 3: at what a complete nightmare they are to cover and

326
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 3: wide receiver with Tyler Boyd T Higgins and Jamar Chase.

327
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 3: It's a nightmare because you can't have a small corner,

328
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 3: you just you can't. These guys are too big, and

329
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 3: that's what the Chargers are gonna throw out there. And

330
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 3: to me, that's very exciting like to be to be

331
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 3: And remember, this is a guy that's gonna have a

332
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 3: ton of one on one opportunities. Man, you got a

333
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: six foot three high, four to four wide receiver, it's

334
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 3: gonna get a ton of one on ones. And he's

335
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 3: got Justin Herbert and that freaking cannon throwing the ball

336
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 3: down the field. Because you can't afford to single cover

337
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 3: Mike Williams or Keenan Allen on a third down. This

338
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 3: guy's gonna get freaking single cover. He's gonna have the

339
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 3: chance to make some really big plays and that that

340
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 3: part of it is exciting. You know, you want a

341
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 3: guy with some size when you're pushing that ball downfield.

342
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 3: Then this guy is going to be a heck of

343
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 3: a weapon on that front. Let's not forget Gerald Everett.

344
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 2: I mean Gerald Everett had his best game as a

345
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,239
Speaker 2: Charger in that playoff game against the Exonal Jaguars. I mean,

346
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,640
Speaker 2: so that's another weapon or did he could? He considers

347
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 2: himself an athlete, not a tight end. So it's just

348
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 2: another big body weapon for for Justin and I want

349
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 2: to get your thoughts on what the Chargers may do

350
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: in this second round. And what I was getting at is, Okay,

351
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 2: the tight end position is loaded. There's like four guys

352
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 2: that could, like one of them just fall in their

353
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 2: lap if they didn't even move up in the in

354
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 2: the second round. I mean, Laporte is that guy from Iowao.

355
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 2: The DJ really really likes Washington from Georgia, Musgrove from

356
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: Oregon state mayor from Notre Dame. If you get one

357
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 2: of those four guys, I mean, I think you're going

358
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 2: a long way in terms of solidifying that position, not

359
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: only if it's twenty twenty three, but the years to

360
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 2: come with.

361
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 3: Justin Yeah, I'm looking at it. You know, you think

362
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 3: about who's in front of them, right, So the Lions

363
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 3: traded Hawkinson, they need a tight end. Cardinals could use

364
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 3: a tight end. Steelers have Friarmouth, Colts could. Certainly they're

365
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 3: gonna want weapons for Anthony Richardson. You have the Rams,

366
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 3: don't know what they're gonna do. I would imagine they

367
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 3: probably want to trade back. Seahawks are up. There's a

368
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 3: lot of teams that could use tight ends, especially you

369
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 3: think about those teams that picked high that have young quarterbacks.

370
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 3: You know, the Panthers for Bryce Young, you know, the

371
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 3: Packers for Jordan Love after taking Lucas van Ness in

372
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,360
Speaker 3: the first round instead of a wide receiver to help

373
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 3: out Jordan Love. But they did take their two receivers

374
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 3: last year. I mean, they got Duves and Watson last year,

375
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 3: so they're fine. But that's a tight end spot. Like

376
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 3: you know, the thing with Laporta that's interesting is the

377
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 3: the Iowa offense was so anemic last year that it's

378
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 3: easy for someone like that to get Overlook, you know,

379
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 3: with that kind of skill set from a tight end

380
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 3: factory like Iowa, who produces really good tight ends. So

381
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 3: if Laporta can make it to him at fifty four,

382
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 3: that'd be incredible.

383
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 1: I think I think it's gonna be tough.

384
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 2: I think when you look at a bit better numbers

385
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: and Kittled did in Iowa. Yeah without a quarterback, right.

386
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's what I mean that the offense was

387
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 3: just completely and totally anemix. So you're talking about a

388
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 3: group of players. I'm trying to find him here, where

389
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 3: is my where are my tight ends?

390
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 1: Here we go?

391
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 3: So you're talking about Mayor who's going to go right away?

392
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 3: Muskro So you have you really have five left?

393
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: You know what? I actually even like Brenton Strange out

394
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 1: of Penn State. I forgot about him.

395
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 3: And that's the thing like Shoemaker, like he's solid out

396
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 3: of Michigan.

397
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: But I think what we're.

398
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 3: Talking about is elite tight end play. Dalton Kin kid

399
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 3: is going to be an elite tight end. I know

400
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 3: he's not a do at all. He's not a huge blocker,

401
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 3: but he's a capable blocker. But man, Michael Mayer is

402
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 3: going to go right away, Musgrave I think is probably

403
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 3: gonna go pretty quick. He's super athletic and just had

404
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 3: injury issues. That's why his production was so low. We know,

405
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 3: Darnell Washington, my.

406
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 2: Gosh, must Grave only played in a couple of games.

407
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: Is yere barely played?

408
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, but when he did, he's he flashes, you know,

409
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 3: he's he's really athletic. You see contorting his body, you know,

410
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 3: picking balls off guys heads, like really doing some impressive stuff.

411
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 3: And the limited sample that you get Washington, I to me,

412
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 3: that's just one where that's like, I don't know how

413
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 3: that guy makes it. You can't find a guy that

414
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 3: freaking big, you know, at six seven to sixty. He's

415
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 3: an offensive lineman like you get you get a six

416
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,360
Speaker 3: offensive lineman in your tight end. And oh, by the way,

417
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 3: that offensive lineman is pretty athletic and can catch balls

418
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 3: and watch bodies just bounce off them down the field.

419
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 3: So you know, I think the thing with picking a

420
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 3: tight end at twenty one, there's a reason why tight

421
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 3: ends don't go a lot in the first round, and

422
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 3: it's a reason why running backs don't go all out

423
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 3: in the first round. And it's the money. You know,

424
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 3: it's the fact that these guys aren't making twenty five

425
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 3: million bucks a year like a one receiver is. So

426
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: when you can get that first round contract, you want

427
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 3: to try to get that financial flexibility, especially when you're

428
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 3: about to play justin Herbert what you're about to pay him.

429
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 3: So I think that's probably part of the reason why

430
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 3: the Chargers want wide receiver over tight end there and

431
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 3: you said it, Chris, the deep class, the fact that

432
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 3: they feel like, oh, no, we can get one of

433
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: these guys at fifty four if they really want to

434
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 3: keep building on offense, which selfishly I want them to do,

435
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: but I wouldn't be surprised. Corner group is pretty deep.

436
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 1: You know.

437
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 3: I thought maybe they were going to take Deonte Banks there,

438
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 3: you know, the pick that when I think I think

439
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 3: the Giants took him to twenty four. Yeah, so like

440
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 3: that would have been a great I would I was like, ooh,

441
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 3: if Brandon gets on that table and starts jumping, I

442
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: could totally see him want in that long corner. We

443
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 3: talked about the contract situation, right, but you know what

444
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 3: that signals to me is that things are going really

445
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 3: well with JC and they feel like he's going to

446
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 3: be ready. And that's going to put them back at

447
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 3: a little bit of depth at that position.

448
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 2: You know, the wide receiver run started too, and it

449
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 2: started at twenty and then I was like forced wide receivers.

450
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see when the tight end run

451
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 2: in the second round starts, and if it starts closer

452
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 2: to where the Chargers select, or if they really wanted

453
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 2: one of those guys, if they'd have to move up

454
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: to get them. So there's a lot of positions that

455
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 2: need Let's take a quick break and talk about some

456
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: other potential positions they may target. All right, guys, is

472
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,280

473
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 2: and tighten talking offense, Chris, what you talking offense?

474
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: Hey?

475
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 2: I'm with you though, like I even said last night,

476
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 2: and to your point, really the last couple of months,

477
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 2: you got to outscore Patrick Mahomes and all those other

478
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,960
Speaker 2: quarterbacks you mentioned, not to mention CJ. Stroud and Anthony

479
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: Richardsoner coming to the AFC. And I'm not saying they're

480
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: gonna blow up the league in the first year or two,

481
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 2: but you never know.

482
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: Both good. I think they're both good quarterbacks.

483
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 2: You know, the AFC. AFC is crazy. You have to

484
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 2: score forty points, you forty points.

485
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 3: And all the word is that Tennessee is gonna get

486
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 3: Will Levis. You know that that's that's the team. So

487
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 3: you're talking about another quarterback that's coming in now.

488
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

489
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 3: Do you all of them make it? No, they never do,

490
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 3: you know, it's just the way it works. You don't

491
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 3: have a quarterback class where every single one of the

492
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 3: guys makes it. So one or two of them are

493
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 3: are going to be, you know, on another team after

494
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 3: four years. And that's just the reality of it. That's

495
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 3: how it works out. But you know, yeah, those are

496
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 3: high picks.

497
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: You know. CJ.

498
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 3: Stroud, Anthony Richardson invested in the in the AFC South,

499
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 3: which is good for us because you don't want one

500
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 3: team to dominate. You want them all to beat up

501
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 3: on each other and pull each other out of that

502
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 3: wild card, you know, so you don't have So I

503
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 3: think that's you know, to me, that's that's something that's

504
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 3: down the road. That was the only thing I was

505
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 3: thinking about with Houston, Like, that's that's what's we went

506
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 3: through all the quarterbacks, right, Like, how do you decide

507
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 3: to start the clock? Like, you know what, am I

508
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 3: really gonna? I really need to love CJ. Stroud because

509
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 3: I feel like we're a couple of years away. So

510
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 3: now I'm starting that five year clock. Technically it's a

511
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 3: four year clock, right if he's going to be good.

512
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 3: Do I want to start this four year clock with

513
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 3: Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes.

514
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: Did I mention Burrow in that list?

515
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: By the way, I think he did?

516
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm just gonna say, am I at ten now?

517
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean? So like that's the

518
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: interesting part, by the.

519
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,199
Speaker 2: Way, too, money, Like you didn mentioned Kenny Pickett and

520
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 2: I and I know that he's he was a rookie

521
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 2: last year. But but Mike Tomlin doesn't have losing seasons. Man, Like,

522
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 2: the Steelers are gonna be good. Kenny Pickett is gonna

523
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 2: be able to lead them to wins.

524
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: That.

525
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that the point I was simply like illustrating. Yeah,

526
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 3: the only thing I was illustrating is you know you

527
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 3: won't like if Kenny Pickett misses the playoffs. You're like, oh, yeah, whatever,

528
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 3: But like when you say, hey, Tarvl Lawrence missed the playoffs,

529
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert missed the playoffs, Joe Burrow missed the playoffs,

530
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson with his fancy guaranteed contract missed the playoffs.

531
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson and all that tumult in Baltimore and what

532
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 3: they went through before finally getting a deal, missed the playoffs. Like,

533
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 3: that's what's crazy about this conference. The balance of power,

534
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,439
Speaker 3: the balance of powers insane.

535
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 2: I'll say it again, man, I have you know, shame

536
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 2: on the teams in the NFC that didn't make an

537
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 2: offer for Lamar Jackson.

538
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, shame.

539
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: I just Aaron Rodgers too. I don't know if Green

540
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 2: Bay was going to trade him in the NFC, but

541
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 2: I would have given up more to get Aaron Rodgers

542
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: and keep him in the NFC and compete for a

543
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 2: Super Bowl alongside what Jaylen you have, Jalen Hurts.

544
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: That's it.

545
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 2: Nak Prescott, there's an argument that your guy Derek Carr

546
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,360
Speaker 2: is like the third best quarterback in the in the conference.

547
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 3: That that does not bode well for the NFC in

548
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 3: terms of talent at the quarterback position. I digrest, you

549
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 3: looked at the Cardinals rosters a mess. The Rams are

550
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 3: on a complete rebuild. The forty nine ers are going

551
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,479
Speaker 3: to be dominant defensively, and you know with what they have,

552
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey, that weapon, George Kittle, mccaffe you know, they

553
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 3: just do it with weapons. So just you know, I

554
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 3: think that's the one thing about the NFC when everyone's like, oh,

555
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 3: it's the Eagles, It's the Eagles. Yeah it is, but

556
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 3: let's not forget about what the weapons look like. In

557
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 3: San Francisco. That defense is just it's atrocious. You know,

558
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 3: it's so freaking dominant. And when you combine their offensive

559
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: line with mc caffrey, deebo Ayuk Kittle like in the

560
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 3: brain of Kyle Shanahan. Okay, now they can trade punches

561
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 3: with the Eagles. You know they can do. I think

562
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 3: they're better. No, especially not after last year's draft and

563
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: this draft. But yeah, the South is you got Baker

564
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 3: at quarterback for the Bucks. You got Bryce Young the

565
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 3: number one pick for the Panthers. Desmond Ritters, you know,

566
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 3: doing it with the Falcons. But look, they were able

567
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 3: to get a reclamation project in Ryan Tannehill and Arthur

568
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 3: Smith made it work with Derek Henry and now he's

569
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 3: gonna be able to make it work with Cordero Patterson,

570
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 3: Tyler L. Jeer and b Jean Robinson. And it's very

571
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 3: reminiscent of what he did in Tennessee. And you know,

572
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 3: is someone that called a lot of college football. What

573
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 3: Jim Harbaugh did at Stanford when he's like, all right,

574
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 3: Pac twelve, you want to play a ton of nickel

575
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 3: and dime and you want to throw it all over.

576
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 3: I guess we're gonna do. We're gonna come town, We're

577
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 3: gonna kick your ass. We're gonna we're gonna play power football,

578
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 3: and you don't have the bodies. And that's what he's

579
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 3: building in Atlanta. You've got those big receivers, you got

580
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 3: that gigantic freak of a tight end, and now you've

581
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 3: got this three headed monster at running back can be

582
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 3: flexed all over the field. We know cord I mean

583
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 3: Cordero was drafted as a wide receiver. You know, Algiers

584
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 3: a hammer, Beijeon can move to the slot. I can't

585
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 3: wait to see what they're gonna do. I got a

586
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 3: ton of respect for Arthur Smith and the way he

587
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 3: sees football. So that's you know, I guess what I'm

588
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 3: getting at, Chris is. I think it's a little bit

589
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,719
Speaker 3: of an overreaction, you know, I think, I do. I

590
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 3: do think there's some teams that that are interesting. You know,

591
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 3: the Panthers have a really good defense. I believe in

592
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 3: Frank Reich and I believe in Bryce Young. You know

593
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 3: one hundred percent. So I think it's it looks to

594
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 3: be the Eagles maybe for a year before the other

595
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 3: teams might be able to catch up there with all

596
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 3: that depth and who they got. But at the same time,

597
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 3: you know, weird things happen, you know, weird, weird things

598
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 3: happen every year.

599
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 2: The Caleb Williams Drake May sweepstakes is is gonna heat up.

600
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Bonnick's gonna get in there too. You know,

601
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 3: Bonnick's going to be a top five pick. You know

602
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 3: it's gonna be and and you know what, someone else

603
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 3: will raise their hand. You know, you'll you'll get the

604
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson, you'll get the Will Levis, you'll get the

605
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 3: you know, the Joe Burrow. Single season, it happens. Somebody

606
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 3: always ends up raising their hand. But you know, I'm sorry.

607
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 3: I love the draft. I'm a I'm a draft dork.

608
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 2: It's the best.

609
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: To react.

610
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 2: It's fun to react to all the craziness that happened yesterday.

611
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 2: Staying with the Chargers, Yeah, one position, I'm a little

612
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 2: concerned about deft Wise's edge. Uh and and I bring

613
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 2: that up because obviously they you know, you know, you

614
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 2: got Khalil Mack and Joey bos Like, what are you

615
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 2: talking about? It's it's the guys behind him. You know,

616
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 2: Chris Rump is still developing. They're gonna need a couple

617
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 2: of guys sure to develop. I'm hopeful van Noy after

618
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: the draft comes back. I think he wants to be here.

619
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: I'm hoping that that we're letter is Leonard Floyd Stilville

620
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 2: still out there.

621
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 3: He's still out there. He's gonna get signed after the draft.

622
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: And these are that's where you tend to get bargains

623
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 3: right because teams don't have a lot of cap space life.

624
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 3: You know, they figured out, Okay, this is what I

625
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 3: need for my draft pool. I've got that squared away.

626
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 3: Now how much do I have?

627
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: Leonard?

628
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: I got seven and a half million bucks. It's yours

629
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 3: if you want to take it. You can get back

630
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 3: in the market next year. You know that would be great.

631
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: I think defensive tackle is I'm just kind of for

632
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 3: those watching on YouTube. Sorry, I'm not looking at the screen.

633
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 3: I'm kind of looking off on my other computer here.

634
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 3: Keanu Benton. I don't know if he'll make it. You know,

635
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 3: he's an exceptional player out of Wisconsin. A lot of

636
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 3: people kind of call him a poor man's Jalen Carter,

637
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 3: which will take Siaki Eka, Like, that's someone that people

638
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 3: talked about Byron Young out of Alabama, So that's interior

639
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 3: edge Byron Young, Tennessee a lot of people like him.

640
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 3: We talked about toy Polo two out of sc you know,

641
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 3: he very well could end up being there. So that's

642
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 3: the front and then I think you go to the

643
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 3: back end of the defense. We talked about what a

644
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: deep corner group. They says, I mean, you still got

645
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 3: Brian Branchjoey Porter, Kelly Ringo, DJ Turner, Cam Smith, Like

646
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 3: there's some really good corners on the board.

647
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 2: You think Joey Porter is gonna go to the Steelers

648
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: first pick?

649
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: Yes or that?

650
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 3: Like, to me, that's just you know that to me,

651
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 3: looks like Will lev Like, I'm surprised, and I think

652
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 3: they were probably trying to get back into the first

653
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 3: round to get them so they get that fifty year option.

654
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 3: But if a team likes Will Levis, they're gonna immediately

655
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 3: make sure they get him. So but I mean it

656
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 3: certainly would make sense. I mean, we know Mike Tomlin

657
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 3: coaches up DB's like Bill Belichick, and Pete Carroll coach up.

658
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 3: DB's right, it's what they do, it's what they love.

659
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: So it's it would be hard to imagine Joey Porter

660
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 3: Junior not going there after what Joey Porter meant to

661
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 3: that that team. But you know, and then you go

662
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 3: to safety Chris and I mean we mentioned Brian Branch

663
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 3: and how versatile is He'll be gone. But the two

664
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 3: safeties out of Illinois, Brown and Martin, people love them.

665
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 3: One of them could be available. Like there's some real

666
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 3: league they said, deep draft, there's some really good players

667
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 3: if they're gonna go defense on Day two and try

668
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 3: to build some depth because of all the injuries, right

669
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 3: like Johnson Abonia, they got a lot of j C. Jackson,

670
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,719
Speaker 3: They got so many injuries. You saw what happened when

671
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 3: Mikey Davis left the game against Jacksonville. Everything changed immediately.

672
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 3: So everything, like I think it wouldn't surprise me because

673
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 3: of how deep the defensive bat group is. And they

674
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 3: need a returner by the way, So that was the

675
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 3: other thing about the whole Quinton Johnson. You know pick

676
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,239
Speaker 3: it's like say can return, Addison can return. Now, I

677
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 3: know you don't want to put your starting receiver out there.

678
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 3: But that was the other thing that I was thinking,

679
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 3: and why I was thinking those two guys is like

680
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 3: they need a returner, and hey, these guys can return

681
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 3: kicks and ponds.

682
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: I don't think Johnston's ever done it.

683
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 2: It's hard to It's hard to get all those guys

684
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: on the field at the same time too, right, I mean,

685
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 2: Palmer's going in his third year. You know, in a

686
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: perfect world, Keenan and Mike aren't coming off the field, right,

687
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 2: So to have that positional versatility with a returner, hopefully

688
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 2: they can one later. As far as defense is concerned,

689
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,880
Speaker 2: I do think you look at the guys that they

690
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 2: drafted last year, is almost like red shirt guys, right,

691
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: Tito Abogonna, J T. Woods, which is the big one.

692
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 2: He's got to make a job. He's a lead.

693
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 3: That's a big one because that's that's a third round pick.

694
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 3: You need your twos and your threes to be out

695
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 3: there playing football. So but again, that's a hard free

696
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 3: safety is a hard position. And Brandon Staley's defense is complex.

697
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 3: It is not Gus Bradley see it, attack it.

698
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: It is.

699
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 3: It is much more complex. He asks a lot of

700
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 3: his defensive backs and that's sort of what we talked about.

701
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: Remember with j. C.

702
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 3: Jackson early that he just came from a system where

703
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick said, that's your guy, that's all you have

704
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 3: to worry about, your good and he had to try

705
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: to settle in to to what Brandon you know, in

706
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 3: that too high shell and a lot of quarters and hey,

707
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 3: you've got to read you you need the one because

708
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 3: he's coming outside or you're taking you know, all of

709
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 3: that sort of stopped.

710
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: Then think about the leap that Michael Davis made from

711
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 2: year two. He was in the same boat where he

712
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,720
Speaker 2: you know, it took him a little while to grasp

713
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 2: that system. So you're right, you need you need that

714
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 2: player can come in and and it may not happen

715
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 2: first year. One thing that's very interesting to me now

716
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 2: is this whole Austin Eckler situation because you know, we

717
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,720
Speaker 2: talked about Bijon on here and you know, Jamior Gibbs

718
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 2: was like that second guy, almost like the one a.

719
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 2: I I saw that there were like some teams that

720
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 2: thought that they thought higher of Gibbs and Bijeon, which

721
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 2: I don't know how true that is.

722
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: It's crazy, but but here we are.

723
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 2: You know, is it even worth the Chargers drafting a

724
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 2: running back when we don't know what Isaiah Spiller is

725
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 2: right like that? This is where it's like, Okay, is

726
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 2: Austin just going to come back here and we're going

727
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 2: to try to make this thing work with with Joshua

728
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 2: Kelly and Isaiah Spiller and Eckler? Or is there another

729
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 2: guy in this draft Charbona from u C l A

730
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 2: another Bruin?

731
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 1: Uh?

732
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 2: Is probably that maybe that next running back. I guess

733
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 2: it's in the eye of the beholder. But the whole

734
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 2: Austin Echler thing money. I was thinking about that a

735
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 2: lot last night because I thought that if the Chargers

736
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 2: made a move at running back in the first round,

737
00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 2: maybe that signaled something. But you know, the hope is

738
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,920
Speaker 2: Austin comes back at this point. But but who knows.

739
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's much like wide receivers, you know,

740
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 3: running backs are all different. You know, Jamier Gibbs has

741
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 3: been compared to Kamara, someone that can really catch the football.

742
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,959
Speaker 3: You can flex him out all over the field. Again, look,

743
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 3: by maybe I'm wrong. I know there were people that

744
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 3: really really like him, but I just when I watched

745
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: Bjon Robinson play it's like, holy heck, that guy is

746
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 3: just next level. But I think, you know, we talked

747
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 3: about Roshawn Johnson with with with Bratt a couple of

748
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 3: weeks ago, like because he's.

749
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 2: Just a big back.

750
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 3: I mean you're talking about two and two hundred and fifteen.

751
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 3: I think I think he might even be two hundred

752
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 3: nineteen pounds. Like he's a big dude. So that different, right,

753
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 3: But that that's something that we saw from Josh Kelly

754
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: last year where I felt like Josh took that step

755
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:07,919
Speaker 3: and that was something he told us. Remember at training

756
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,800
Speaker 3: camp when he sat down with us, you know, before

757
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 3: the season even started, he said, you know, I needed

758
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 3: to get bigger, I needed to get stronger. He's like,

759
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 3: because I felt like they were bringing the attack to me,

760
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 3: and I'm going to bring the attack to them. And

761
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 3: we saw that last year. So I think they're probably

762
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 3: comfortable with Josh.

763
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:27,919
Speaker 1: In that role.

764
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 3: Now, Like we said, it's a different it's a gaps,

765
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 3: it's a wide zone, it's an outside zone, and you've

766
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 3: got to read your gaps. You've got to have really

767
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 3: good vision in this offense as a running back, because

768
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 3: once you're handed that ball, you're just following these assignments,

769
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 3: is that laying open? No, next one, next one, Okay,

770
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 3: now that's closed. I've got to cut back to this

771
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 3: one to get through. It's a little bit different, and

772
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,279
Speaker 3: I think we saw Josh at his best when it

773
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 3: was here's the ball attack. When we saw Josh struggle

774
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 3: a little bit is when he's trying to stretch it

775
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 3: outside and trying to get that corner and stuff. Not

776
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 3: necessarily you know, his particular skill set. So I think

777
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 3: you got to figure out what is the room, what

778
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 3: do we have versus what's available, And to me, I'd

779
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 3: be really surprised. I think bjon Look if Bijeon was

780
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 3: there at twenty one and Quintin Johnston was there at

781
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,919
Speaker 3: twenty one, and you know, I don't think there's any

782
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 3: question Bijeon would have been the pick. I don't think

783
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 3: there is any question. He was just an elite player.

784
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 3: So I think now that he's gone, I don't think

785
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 3: running back really comes into play. I think they have

786
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 3: some depth concerns un less, and again this is the

787
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 3: whole we don't know as much as they know. Unless

788
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 3: the relationship with Austin is completely soured and they're worried

789
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 3: about that, which I don't think it is, but you know,

790
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 3: I don't know.

791
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 2: I hope it isn't. I hope it isn't. I think

792
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,399
Speaker 2: too it is. Fans watching this draft unfold, just keep

793
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 2: in mind when they draft a guy like Quinton Johnston,

794
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: when they do these things that they're going to do

795
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 2: in Rountdes two and three and beyond, Kellen Moore's finger

796
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 2: prince are going to be on this offense. And there's

797
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 2: a reason why they're bringing in certain guys because they

798
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 2: fit what Kellen wants to do. And one of the

799
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 2: things that Brandon Staley said when I talked to him

800
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 2: right after they picked him was just challenging defenses in

801
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 2: different ways, and Kellen Morrison was so good at that

802
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 2: at Dallas. So to have Quintin kind of compliment what

803
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 2: Keenan and Mike do best. Knowing you have Gerald Everett

804
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 2: hopefully having Austin Ecklo out of the backfield, Kellen has

805
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 2: to believe that he has the pieces in place to

806
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 2: really stress defenses. So that's why I would be encouraged

807
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 2: if I'm a Chargers fan by this pick, because Kellen

808
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 2: Moore probably had his fingerprints on it.

809
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 3: You know, I think the one thing just going back

810
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 3: to it is I'm trying to think I think it

811
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 3: was I think it was Coach Lynn when we first

812
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 3: brought it up that first year that Brandon was that

813
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert was playing, and he said, you know, you

814
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 3: can't just have speed, You've got to have speed that

815
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: scares the defense. You know, if you're just a guy

816
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 3: running down the field and they don't really care, it

817
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. But to me, like Quintin Johnston scares a

818
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 3: defense because we've just seen the explosive plays that he

819
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 3: put up at TCU. It's like, hey, that's a big dude.

820
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert's got a giant arm, and he throws the

821
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 3: ball beyond accurately downfield. And if we don't account for

822
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 3: this guy, we're host it's a fifty yard completion or

823
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 3: it's a seventy yard touchdown. So we have got to

824
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: be worried about that guy. And I think that's what

825
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 3: you're talking about, Chris, is you know they did not

826
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 3: have that element last year, and teams just packed the

827
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 3: box and they were happy to cover up all those

828
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 3: underneath routes from Keenan and Josh Palmer and you know

829
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 3: those quick outs, the running game had no chance to breathe.

830
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 3: You bring in someone like Johnston with that size and

831
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 3: that speed, and look, even if he does what he

832
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 3: did at TCU, which was not a lot of complicated routes,

833
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: run that way real fast.

834
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: If we throw you the ball, catch it.

835
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 3: If that's all he does, it's going to change how

836
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 3: defenses have to behave and how they have to attack

837
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,919
Speaker 3: the Chargers offense because he's running. He's gone, and he's

838
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 3: got the speed and he's got the size to beat you.

839
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 3: He's just got to catch the ball. And if he does,

840
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 3: band things are going to open up underneath for Josh

841
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 3: Palmer and Keenan Allen and Austin Eckler out of the backfield,

842
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 3: and Isaiah Spiller if he starts to come on, you know,

843
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 3: and Justin Herbert to run the ball like Dac did

844
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 3: quite a bit under Kellen Moore. Like That's the exciting

845
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 3: thing about Johnston is his ability. They needed that, They

846
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 3: needed a player that threatens the defenses deep that you

847
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 3: have to be worried about getting the top taken off.

848
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, dude, I'll say it again. I thought

849
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 2: about exactly what you said last week. About Justin Herbert

850
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,360
Speaker 2: and how he makes good receivers great and great receivers

851
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,439
Speaker 2: all pros. And I think that Johnson is at least good,

852
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 2: and Justin will make him great and if he's already great,

853
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,359
Speaker 2: he'll be an all Pro eventually.

854
00:40:59,080 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: Down the line.

855
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 2: So I'm excited about that aspect. And that's the reason too.

856
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 2: When you see a wide receiver like that drafted, you

857
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 2: know that Justin Herbert too, I mean his arm Like,

858
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 2: we didn't see them throw the ball down the field

859
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 2: at all last year, man, And it was frustrating, and

860
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 2: I realized that there were injuries and there was a

861
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: lot of a lot of stuff to it. But it's

862
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,919
Speaker 2: going to change this year. And that was the first

863
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 2: sign that it's going to.

864
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 3: Change, certainly, I think just kind of looking at today,

865
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:34,320
Speaker 3: you know and look day three developmental depth picks, and man,

866
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 3: I don't think there's there.

867
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: Certainly was not last year.

868
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,319
Speaker 3: I don't know the last time we saw a Day

869
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 3: three pick like Jamari Sawyer and the contribution he made.

870
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: But I mean they had an absolute home run with

871
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 3: a Day three pick there. We saw what Dean Letterdan

872
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 3: j just Sir Taylor able to do on special teams

873
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 3: that won them a game against Denver, So those guys

874
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 3: had impact.

875
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,399
Speaker 2: What's your order for today? Like, what do you want

876
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 2: to see today?

877
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I think now it really does become a

878
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 3: best available The Chargers are stacked there. They are now

879
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 3: in debt. I think I think with your first round pick,

880
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 3: you're you're taking that big swing. You know, you gotta

881
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 3: hit it. You get that, you get the benefit of

882
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 3: cost certainty, the fifty year option. It's so important to

883
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 3: hit on those picks. Outside of that, I think they

884
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 3: just go. I think they just follow their board.

885
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 2: You know.

886
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:22,839
Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to force a tight end.

887
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 3: They're not going to force a corner. They're not going

888
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 3: to force a defensive end because they do they need

889
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 3: an end. Yeah, they need an edge, They need a

890
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 3: little bit of depth there. But like I said, I

891
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 3: think post draft there's enough guys available that they might

892
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 3: be able to make that work like they did last

893
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 3: year with van Ney. And I keep going back to

894
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 3: that Leonard Floyd thing and saying, man, I just I

895
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 3: gotta believe that day is going to be pounding that

896
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,800
Speaker 3: table and that and I think we'll get a signal

897
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 3: that that may be the case based on the way

898
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 3: they draft. But to me like that, I feel like

899
00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 3: today is a defense day unless there's just incredible value.

900
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 3: You if somehow Washington laporta Muskray fall, then then perhaps

901
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 3: that's that's the pick. But I don't think it's a

902
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 3: running back day. I could see maybe if for whatever reason,

903
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,800
Speaker 3: to me, I would draft in the first three rounds.

904
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 3: I would draft an offensive lineman every single year. I

905
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 3: just think it is so important. You've got to be

906
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 3: able to protect Justin Herbert. He's the most important commodity

907
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 3: that you have on your team. And I don't think

908
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,400
Speaker 3: there's any anything wrong with you know, if if for

909
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 3: whatever reason, let's say Bergeron he's not going to but

910
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 3: if Bergeron drops, if Cody Mak that a lot of

911
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 3: people love out of North Dakota State starts to drop,

912
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,439
Speaker 3: then take them. You know, I got I got no price.

913
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 3: It's a premium position that makes a ton of cash.

914
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 3: You're gonna have to pay for Sean Slater, you know,

915
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:49,720
Speaker 3: they just paid Trey Pickens.

916
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 1: I got no.

917
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 3: Problem with taking guys like that, you know, and just

918
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 3: kind of creating depth. So I think that's that's the

919
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 3: That's the great thing about the the Chargers are in

920
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 3: is they do have enough depth now where they can

921
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 3: simply follow the board.

922
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 2: Tom alluded to this. I think last night they drafted

923
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 2: Rashau Slater, Zion Johnson, and now Quentin Johnson. There's a

924
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 2: role for Justin Herbert as it for Justin Herbert to

925
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 2: protect them and you give them weapons. Hey, I think

926
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 2: we're gonna get DJ on next week to break down

927
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 2: the draft, which is awesome.

928
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: Dude.

929
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 2: Yea his mock draft, he freaking nailed it. Did you see?

930
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: He was on fire last night? He was on just.

931
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 3: And look, I know for a fact how this works

932
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 3: because I've worked the draft for the NFL network for

933
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:38,240
Speaker 3: ten years.

934
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: You don't know.

935
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 3: He does not have The general managers are not sharing,

936
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 3: they're not there. They're radio silent with you during the draft.

937
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 3: They're in their war rooms. They're doing their thing. You know,

938
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 3: they may reach out to you after they make their pick.

939
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,360
Speaker 3: But he does not know what's coming. And he was

940
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 3: a fortune teller last night. He could predict the future.

941
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 3: He reme when everybody was taking shots at CJ. Stroud

942
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 3: and mocking Tyree Wilson to the Texans, he was like,

943
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 3: there's no way he was the only one that just

944
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 3: kept his head down and said, there is no way

945
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 3: they go into the season with Davis Mills as their quarterback.

946
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 3: CJ Stroud whatever with you know, the cognitive testing. Maybe

947
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,719
Speaker 3: it's a red flag for some teams, but he's like,

948
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 3: I just don't see it. He was right on that.

949
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 3: The fact they traded back up, he was all over that,

950
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 3: like the Will Levis slide, all over that. I mean,

951
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 3: he just seemed to know what was coming. He did

952
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 3: a heck of a job. Yeah, he's the best.

953
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 2: Well, hopefully we'll talk to him next week with the
