1
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,840
Speaker 1: He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 1: your twenty four to seven home of the Black and

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,799
Speaker 1: Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

4
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,640
Speaker 2: Welcome back to our number two of the Drive here

5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 2: on Steelers Nation Radio, and it is time now for

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 2: the Fantasy Football Focus. Matt, I'm looking here at ESPN.

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 2: They put together a twelve team PPR Fantasy football mock draft. Here.

8
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,919
Speaker 2: Let's take a look and see how things break down here.

9
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 2: Round one, Christian McCaffrey, Number one overall. You have a

10
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 2: problem with that.

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 3: No, I mean it used to be durability, and as

12
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 3: we talked about last segment, running backs are, it's a

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: when not if thing. Yes, boy, he's.

14
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if I want the number one overall

15
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 2: that much.

16
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 3: It's funny I was thinking that too, like, I don't

17
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 3: know if I want one in twenty four. Yeah, I

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: could have you know, six and nineteen or whatever. But boy,

19
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 3: he is a rocket consistency. Now.

20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: They find ways to make sure he gets into the

21
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: end zone.

22
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,400
Speaker 3: He always scores and scores every game. Yeah, he would

23
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 3: be my first pick though.

24
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 2: Number two, Cede Lamb.

25
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, gotta give us some thought. Would you take Jefferson?

26
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: Would not be my receiver one, even though I think

27
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 3: he might be best receiver.

28
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: The quarterback situation is a little scar I think i'd

29
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 2: take Tyrek ahead of Lamb though he's number three, Okay,

30
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: so not far off. More big plays number four Jean Robinson.

31
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 3: I get it. I mean, I'm sure Breess Hall is

32
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,119
Speaker 3: not far behind him, but he is number five. Oh really, Okay?

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: If you told me fantasy is hyde Christian McCaffrey's not

34
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 3: going to be the best running back on the planet

35
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: a year from now, who's it going to be? I

36
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: would bet on Bijon and then I bet on Hall.

37
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 3: You know this guy's hitting their prime. They can do

38
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: it all size, speed, receiving. Hall really produced in a

39
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: bad situation. All and Wilson with the Jets last year,

40
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 3: we're fine. Yeah, they were a little hit and miss.

41
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: But number six am on Ross Saint Brown.

42
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: Consistent, taking him out of Jefferson m or Chase. I

43
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 3: wouldn't you said this a PPR. Yeah, I mean he

44
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: gets a lot of targets.

45
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 2: He does get.

46
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: I think he'd be third on my list of those.

47
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 2: He does get about ten targets a game.

48
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 3: He's great to have one team just Chuck him up for.

49
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 2: I would not be unhappy.

50
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I mean I doubt he busts. Yeah yeah.

51
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: Uh. Seven is Jefferson Eight Jonathan Taylor.

52
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: M I'm taking Chase. I'm not even sure does Taylor

53
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 3: would be your fourth running back Again, I'm just giving

54
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 3: some of these thoughts for the first.

55
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 2: Is going to be pretty good.

56
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: I think would be pretty good. Hm hmm. How about

57
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 3: like a Gibbs for talking PPR. I mean, he's not

58
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 3: get a ton of volume, but he's gonna get good volume.

59
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know the Gibbs will

60
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: want to take Gibbs in the first round. I want

61
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: to be safe in the first round. Yeah, and I

62
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: think i'd take a receiver over Taylor though. Yeah, I

63
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: just worry about Richardson pillage and touchdowns. It could happen.

64
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: I mean, I like Taylor, but it's a little concerning.

65
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 2: Chase is nine, Okay, have a monster year. Aj Brown. Ten.

66
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 3: That sounds about right, I mean to your point of

67
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 3: picking ten verse one, right, what's the difference? Yeah, right,

68
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 3: that's not so bad.

69
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: Eleven is Garrett Wilson. You going that high on Garret

70
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 2: Wilson as wide receiver?

71
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 3: Seven? Yeah, seven. The reason is Tyrod Taylor, because I

72
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 3: think if he would have Tyro Taylor last year, nobody

73
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 3: would have bat an eye at this.

74
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

75
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 3: I think he's that good. And then as he played

76
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 3: with last.

77
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 2: Year, Saquon Barkley at twelve, I bet I bet he'd

78
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: be in my top eleven.

79
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's an immense talent.

80
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, I mean I'm looking at if I had

81
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 2: McCaffrey at number one or sake one.

82
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: At twelve, right, I mean, think about the receiver you get.

83
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: You're gonna get a really good receiver next. Although at

84
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: thirteen the top round two here they took Pookin Nakua.

85
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 3: Okay, but but I mean I think it's speaking for you.

86
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 3: You'd rather have Garrett Wilson and Barkley than McCaffrey and

87
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 3: London or whoever is maybe even the Kupa. Yeah, I

88
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 3: like Puka. I mean I think he's a real, really

89
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,679
Speaker 3: good player. He's not just a factor of the environment.

90
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: But it's sure thirteen might be a little rich for

91
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 2: my blood. Cuts A cup, Yeah, cups still a thing.

92
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: Karen Williams is still a thing.

93
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I mean the off season said they

94
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: would run a ball. Yeah, No, that's too early for

95
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: the coup to me.

96
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 2: Jamior Gibbs at fourteen.

97
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: Fine.

98
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: Kyen Williams at fifteen.

99
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: See, he's a no fly zone for me because I

100
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 3: don't think he's that good. He's smaller, he handled so

101
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 3: much volume, and he was very impressive. But he's a

102
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 3: fourth fourth round pick. That is a tough guy. They

103
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 3: drafted Korum high, No, it wasn't. Yeah, Yeah, I think

104
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 3: he's a flash in the pan.

105
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna have an issue here with the

106
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 2: sixteenth pick as well. Isaiah Pacheco at sixteen For me,

107
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 2: that's way too high.

108
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: I don't think him and Williams are good enough at football.

109
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: You mean, like I get the situation.

110
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: Like the play.

111
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 3: He's fine.

112
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 2: He runs hard, but he runs maybe too hard.

113
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's another one. I think it's on borrowed time. Yeah,

114
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 3: I would not use a second round pick on him.

115
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 3: Seventeen Chrystal Lave that's fine. I don't love the quarterbacks. Yeah,

116
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 3: I will say the last month of the year Car

117
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 3: played better. He was a little more risk taker. Yeah,

118
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 3: but it's not great.

119
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 2: Eighteen Travis ATM that's too rich for me.

120
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't like that neighborhood of running backs at all.

121
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 2: He got off to a hot start last year, yeah,

122
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: and then fell off cliff.

123
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 3: He doesn't catch a ball, and he doesn't catch the

124
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 3: ball a lot more. I've thought this for a while,

125
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 3: but I'd be comfortable. I think my philosophy is if

126
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 3: I end up with McCaffrey haul Bijon in round one,

127
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 3: probably Saque that's fine, but I might wait that the

128
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 3: second round running backs aren't.

129
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: Doing I don't want to ye. Yeah, this isn't doing

130
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 2: much for me either. Although nineteen is Derrick Henry.

131
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 3: He's gonna score touchdowns. Yeah, I mean that's it's gonna

132
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 3: be a good offense. I don't care if their lines

133
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: good or bad. To be better than Tennessee's line last year. Yeah,

134
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 3: Lamar might pillage some, but on the one it's going

135
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 3: to Henry. Yeah, he's I would definitely take him over

136
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: a lot of those guys. He doesn't catch a ball.

137
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: Twenty is Drake London. That's wad receiver ten. Yeah, wid

138
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 2: receever ten pretty rich, like over a guy like say

139
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: Davante Adams or.

140
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 3: Trying to think who's the names you take ahead of him?

141
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 3: Moniko or Evans Adams. Yeah, I think the volume will

142
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 3: be there, but it's that's a little bit of a

143
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 3: leap of faith.

144
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 2: Twenty one Marvin Harrison Junior over some of those guys.

145
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 2: This is a round two. These guys are taking these

146
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 2: kind of chances like I can. I don't know if

147
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: I can get on board with that.

148
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 3: I'm not loving this neighborhood in general.

149
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 2: Twenty two Michael pitt and I like the player, don't

150
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 2: trust the quarterback.

151
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 3: As much as I love Pittman, I own him a

152
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: bunch of my Dynasty leagues. I traded him in two

153
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 3: this year because I think his peak is Richards is

154
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: gonna die, because Richard's gonna pepper him with targets, not

155
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 3: the way Minshew did.

156
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think so either.

157
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 3: And I think Downs is a really good player. And

158
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 3: they want to run the ball and they drafted Mitchell. Yeah,

159
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: they get Pittman money. He's really good, but I think

160
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 3: last year's probably his best year.

161
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: Twenty three. You're not going to like this.

162
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: Joe Mixon such a good opportunity, but yeah, bad. I

163
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 3: don't think he's a good player. I don't understand them

164
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 3: trading for him. Twenty four is James Cook Okay, limited volume, probably, Yeah,

165
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 3: touchdowns are always going to be his problem.

166
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 2: Twenty five Davante Adams. You give me Davante Adams and

167
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: twenty fifth pick? Are you kidding me?

168
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: Yeah? At McCaffrey in round one and Adams.

169
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 2: And he's one hundred and forty targets.

170
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's always gonna be open. Yeah, and his

171
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: quarterbacks aren't horrific. I mean no, Minshew just supported Pittman, right,

172
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 3: mince you.

173
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 2: Pepper pimp pittmam with like Pittman was getting fourteen targets

174
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: a game at times like these, Throw fourteen balls at

175
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: DeVante Adams, You're completing ten of them.

176
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 3: I'm taking Adams over eight of those second rounders. Yeah,

177
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 3: just one. I mean like Adams versus a coup is

178
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 3: a conversation for Yeah, Yeah, Adams is great.

179
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: Twenty six Mike Evans.

180
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 3: He's still great too, and Baker throws bombs.

181
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 2: Twenty seven Devin ah Chan See he's for me, and

182
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 2: I just have a hunch we're gonna I don't have

183
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,439
Speaker 2: a problem taking him in the third round.

184
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 3: Like I would have taken him ahead of a couple

185
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: of those backs.

186
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 2: I don't know if I would like those backs, so

187
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 2: I might like some of these receivers.

188
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, better round already. Yeah, But to me, he reminds

189
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 3: me of Richardson where per snap there's nobody like him,

190
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 3: But how many are gonna get?

191
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 2: Well, that's why I have more less. We are problem

192
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 2: taking him around three. I got two studs to start

193
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: my draft. Now I can take a chance a swing here,

194
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 2: and if he's great, well I'm golden.

195
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: Like for example, like if you could give me mc

196
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 3: haffrey Adams a chano because those two are gonna be

197
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: constants every week and when he hits an ad rder,

198
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 3: you win your You're gonna win your game.

199
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, twenty eight were Shad White volume.

200
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't love catches the ball. Yeah, this

201
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 3: is PPR.

202
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 2: I don't have a problem with that.

203
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 3: The thing I don't love is would you rather him

204
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 3: or Karen Williams? Similar? Yeah? Same the price I would

205
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 3: buy him there, I think there's similar players in terms

206
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,479
Speaker 3: of talent. The thing I was gonna say though, is Canalis.

207
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 3: The is Now, this is why I like the Panthers

208
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 3: Brooks because he did a really good job of scheming

209
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 3: up throws to the running back and I'll go away

210
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 3: in Tampa. But new coordinator and that's what White does well.

211
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 3: But this is a smidge of doubt.

212
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 2: Uh. Twenty nine. Sam Laporta is tight end one.

213
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 3: What's interesting about the tight end market this year is

214
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 3: it used to be everybody remembers this one. I had

215
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 3: to use the eighth pick in the draft on Kelsey

216
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: and he gives me such an advantage over every type.

217
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: Not there anymore.

218
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 3: It's not the same. And it's not the Laporta stinks

219
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 3: or isn't as good. It's just the gap between him

220
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 3: and Kelsey, Kincaid, Kittle isn't I have a huge advantage

221
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 3: over the rest of my league?

222
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: So how and I have an advantage over eight of

223
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: the teams. There's seventy of the teams in my league

224
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 2: now and the gap.

225
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 3: Just isn't as wide. Yeah, it's I think it would

226
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: be my tight end one. I just don't know when

227
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 3: I'm pulling the trigger on a tight end because tight

228
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 3: end eight, nine, ten, down to Friarmouth, to me, wherever

229
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 3: he goes, it's a lot better than usually is. Yeah,

230
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 3: all those guys that came to the league great recently.

231
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 2: Thirty is Travis Kelcey.

232
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 3: Who would you rather have.

233
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 2: Probably just because of the age factor.

234
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 3: I think Kansas City is going to have Kelsey on

235
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 3: a pitch count yeah yeah, and the pitches will probably

236
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 3: come near the goal line, right. But they also have

237
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 3: more receivers than they used to. I would take Laporta too.

238
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: Thirty one Brandon Ayuk okay, better for real world than that.

239
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. We had some some rankings earlier that

240
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 2: had him in round two and Samuel up that high.

241
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 2: That's too.

242
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't think the pie's not big enough for that.

243
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 2: Uh, thirty two Stefan Diggs going before Nico Collins.

244
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: I'd take Della thank Giggs. Yeah, honestly, Diggs is my

245
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 3: third guy on that team.

246
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 2: Now Nico Collins is there at thirty three. I think

247
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 2: that's a steal.

248
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 3: That's a steal to me.

249
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,199
Speaker 2: They didn't pay him all that money to not throw

250
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: them the football.

251
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 3: He's six ' four and he's great after the catch,

252
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 3: and he's coming into his own I mean he was

253
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 3: great before Strout.

254
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 2: Thirty four, Jaylen Wattle, And remember last year Jalen Wattle

255
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: was going at like fourteen fifteen. Yeah, that was overdrafting him.

256
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 2: This is more realistic I think.

257
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 3: I mean, we've talked about this a lot in our

258
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 3: fantasy segments that wide receiver twos didn't live up to

259
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,960
Speaker 3: their drafts they did last year, but per snap, Wattle

260
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 3: was really, really good good. He just said I think

261
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 3: it had Hammis and he it's a couple of things

262
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 3: going against him.

263
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: Thirty five and they gave him money. Josh Allen is

264
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 2: QB one. He's definitely my QB one end of round three.

265
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm never that guy though. If you were the

266
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 2: guy drafting who'd had number the number one overall pick

267
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 2: and you got McCaffrey at Allen, you got McCaffrey and Allen

268
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 2: your goal, Like you're probably sitting there hoping, yeah, like okay,

269
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 2: I'll take that on the turn and I'll be in

270
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: every game and I just got to hit a couple

271
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 2: later picks.

272
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's instances like that, and talking about you know,

273
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 3: in recent years when Mahomes was swowing like forty touchdowns,

274
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 3: if you had Kelsey and and Mahomes or like in

275
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 3: this case, you have Alan and McCaffrey and you're the

276
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 3: team playing me. Oh Like that's just such an awful feel. Yeah,

277
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 3: especially one of them on Monday Night.

278
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 2: Those guys are gonna put up. You know you're gonna

279
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 2: get sixty points minimum out of those two guys.

280
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,719
Speaker 3: None of my dudes can be bad for me to

281
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 3: beat that team, right or Oh I got a twenty

282
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 3: point lead and the Bills are playing Monday night.

283
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 2: Oh great, Yeah, they ain't gonna watch it.

284
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 3: No, it's over.

285
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 2: Thirty six RB fifteen Alvin Kamara.

286
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 3: No, he's a big cell for me. Awful he actually,

287
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 3: Kendrey Miller's one of my favorite targets.

288
00:12:58,760 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: He skipped their mini.

289
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 3: He's complaining about his contract. I was about to say that.

290
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: Dude, you're making like way over more than you should

291
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 2: be making.

292
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 3: You're twenty nine years old, and we're a bad running

293
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: back last year. Maybe it's once out of New Orleans.

294
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe he ends up in Dallas or something. But man,

295
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 3: I didn't think it was a he was a slamdun

296
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 3: to make the team this year. I thought he might get.

297
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: Cut round four. Yeah, tomorrow is not gonna be on

298
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 2: my fantasy pick. Thirty seven DK Metcalf Fine, Yeah, you know.

299
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 3: If I get your wide receiver two, you know that worked.

300
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 2: Thirty eight DeVante Smith similar thirty nine QB two, and

301
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 2: these are actual people, actual fantasy people.

302
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 3: Drive. Yeah, I think this is Carabell and all those

303
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 3: guys making their picks.

304
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson, he's my two too. You don't have them,

305
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: I have had it.

306
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 3: I mean it's I don't have to take him in

307
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 3: that round, but I'm taking him ahead of Hertz and Mahomes.

308
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 3: Mahomes is as good for fantasy as he should be

309
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 3: as he isn't He.

310
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 2: Might be better this year than yeah, but yeah, last

311
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: year was not good. Forty two.

312
00:13:58,200 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 3: I don't love the other options at QB two.

313
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 2: I'm not taking Anthony Richardson in the fourth round. You

314
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 2: can have him.

315
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 3: I might take him at fourth round, but I'm gonna

316
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 3: take him as Koobi.

317
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 2: Two h forty is Jalen Hurts.

318
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: I don't think he's the scores made rushing touchdowns, but

319
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 3: he's good.

320
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 2: Forty one Kenneth Walker, I'm kind.

321
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 3: Of excited about him. I'm hoping the new regime thinks

322
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: he's clearly there.

323
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: They're gonna run the football, They're gonna.

324
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 3: Run the ball. He reminds me kind of like Nick Chubb,

325
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 3: where if he played in the eighties. We think he's

326
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 3: one of the best backs in the league. And Charbonnay

327
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 3: is there and he just doesn't catch a lot of balls,

328
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 3: but he's a great runner.

329
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: H forty three Dj Moore, I'm.

330
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 3: Fine with it. I mean, he's definitely my first bear.

331
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: Forty four Cooper Cup, I'll take.

332
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: Him at that. This guy, Yeah, Matthew Staffords, if.

333
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: That's my wide receiver two or three, right, you know,

334
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: I got two good running backs, he's he's my wide

335
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 2: receiver two if I got three.

336
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 3: Even with Puka, I still think he gets eight to

337
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 3: eleven targets a game.

338
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 2: Stafford's not gonna say, oh, I'm not going to throw

339
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: the ball cub of course. Forty five Deebo Samuel.

340
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's a little risky.

341
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 2: There's going to be some weeks where he just doesn't

342
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 2: do much.

343
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, he draft receiver in he does get nicked up,

344
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 3: he gets banged up, and you know he's okay.

345
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 2: Forty six Molik Neighbors.

346
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 3: Should the gap between Harrison and Neighbors be that wide?

347
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 2: No, I mean I think Harrison was overdrafted. Yeah, that's

348
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: wide receiver twenty four Neighbors Fantasy drafted.

349
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I agreed. I mean they're both going to

350
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 3: be the number one, but one team has McBride to

351
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 3: fight with. Yeah, and yeah, Kyler's better than Jones.

352
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: But is he gonna what he can be a wide

353
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: receiver one as a rookie of my dubts.

354
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 3: I'll take neighbors at that price.

355
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, forty seven our first Steeler, George Pickens.

356
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 3: It's a neighborhood he should be in. I think. Yeah,

357
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 3: you can make an argument that he could be right

358
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 3: there with a Metcalf.

359
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: Or he's going to score touchdowns.

360
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, that's why I use Metcalf as an example.

361
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 3: I mean, there's a big touchdown producer. Could I'll target

362
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 3: a lot of those receivers ahead of them.

363
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 2: He could. Yeah, without a doubt. He's the clear cut

364
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 2: number one, right. Forty eight Mark Andrews tight end three.

365
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 3: I had no problem with that price.

366
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, forty nine Zay Flowers at wide receiver twenty six.

367
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: So the guy on the turn, which was Clay, Mike

368
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 2: Clay took Ravens, took two raven receivers. That's risky.

369
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 3: I'd much rather pay that price for Andrews than Flowers. Yeah,

370
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 3: and frankly like Flowers versus Pickings to me, isn't close.

371
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 2: Not even in the same neighborhood. Fifty Ramandrie Stevenson.

372
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 3: I'm a fan, but boy, that's a tofense to invet in.

373
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to be interested to see where the Steeler

374
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: running backs go here. Do people not realize this? The

375
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: Steelers are going to run the ball as much as

376
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: they're going to run the ball.

377
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: I think they're just so scared of it being a

378
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: true fifty to fifty split.

379
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 2: Now again, they probably need to listen to this show.

380
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't know if.

381
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 2: Even at the fifty to fifty split those guys are

382
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 2: both Yeah. Yeah, we're talking about RB eighteen here. Is

383
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 2: that what Stevenson was?

384
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 3: Yeah? Would you take Nauge? Would you take either steel

385
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 3: or over Stevenson?

386
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 2: I think so because I don't know how many, how much?

387
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 2: How much is New England gonna score.

388
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna get first downs. Yeah, I

389
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: mean he's gonna get the bigger piece of the pie,

390
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 3: but the bad pie.

391
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 2: Fifty one is Aaron Jones.

392
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of I kind of a ty Chandler

393
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 3: because Aaron Jones is never That's one of my big

394
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 3: sleepers is Kendrey Miller. Ty Chandler Jones is good, but

395
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 3: he's never been a full time guy in his best day. Yeah,

396
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 3: he's in that same draft classes like Kamara McCaffrey, and

397
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 3: he's a little older than those guys. And what if

398
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 3: he gets hurt? You know? Ty Chandler to me is

399
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 3: a real nice pickup. But I don't know problem with

400
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: Jones that late though, I mean he's always been productive.

401
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 2: Let's run through some of these other names here quickly.

402
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 2: Fifty two Trey McBride is tight end four. No, thank you,

403
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:52,719
Speaker 2: you're not paying that price. Not a tight end four.

404
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 2: I mean you're taking much rather have Kinkaid. How about Kittle? Yeah,

405
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 2: I think that's a conversation. Tight end four. He was

406
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 2: really are you telling me what Harrison's in? A first

407
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: round guy?

408
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 3: Or for you know that one is Kyler. I was

409
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 3: gonna end up on my teams, by the way, because

410
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 3: I mean this time last year he wasn't even running.

411
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: Fifty three. Lamar Jackson is QB four.

412
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 3: Okay, now as good for fans you see three as

413
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 3: you think.

414
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 2: Though, fifty four Tank Dell, I'm fine with that.

415
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 3: That pro Yeah, get a discount on the injury and Digs.

416
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 2: Fifty five, Patrick Mahomes, Yeah, fifty six. Calvin Ridley is

417
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 2: wide receiver twenty eight Probably not, that's scary. Yeah fifty seven.

418
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: Let's see here we go. So both Detroit running backs

419
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 2: going before the two Steeler runnings. David Montgomery. Now, I

420
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 2: love David Montgomery. Last year I drafted him in like

421
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 2: the tenth round and as my RB two, and that

422
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 2: was fantastic.

423
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

424
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 2: I don't know about a round five and b taking

425
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 2: him over both of the.

426
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: Steeler running backs. Yeah, again, I didn't know problem with Montgomery.

427
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 3: He can be my running back too if I'm stacked

428
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 3: everywhere else. But I would reiterate exactly what you said.

429
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 3: Round five, round five and my fifth pick. Yeah, I

430
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 3: like round six or seven better and ahead of both Steelers, eh.

431
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 2: H fifty eight Higgins okay, fifty nine Jonathan Brooks in Carolina.

432
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 2: If we get good reports, that's RB twenty one. Yeah,

433
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 2: sixty is a mere white. He's the one RB twenty two.

434
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: I mean, see a better player than Steelers. No, No,

435
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 2: his piece of the pie is way bigger than theirs.

436
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 2: Round six, Amari Cooper?

437
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 3: Doesn't he have something going on? Does he have an injury?

438
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 3: Or a contract. I think he has contract complaints. There's

439
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 3: something Cooper.

440
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 2: Everybody in Cleveland's upset with their contracts, and.

441
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,479
Speaker 3: Every receiver is probably yeah, like, well, I should get

442
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 3: paid more.

443
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: Sixty two Dalton Concate is tight end five.

444
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 3: That's cheap for him.

445
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. Sixty three cow Pits is tight end six.

446
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,679
Speaker 3: I'm still on board with Pits. He can be my

447
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 3: tight end six.

448
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 2: Sixty four Jayden Reed and Green Bay wide receiver three.

449
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 3: From a love the player, but I don't know who's

450
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 3: taking green Bay. I think I'm gonna I think I'll

451
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 3: take Love and nobody else.

452
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 2: Sixty five Evan Ingram.

453
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 3: He was the second highest point Fantasy Point Score peppered

454
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 3: him with I bet that goes down, but he's a

455
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 3: fixture in the passing game.

456
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 2: Sixty six David and Joku.

457
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 3: A little hit or miss, but it was a lot

458
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 3: of hit.

459
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,360
Speaker 2: Sixty seven James Connor.

460
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 3: He still gets it done. I know Benson's there.

461
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 2: But sixty eight DeAndre Hopkins.

462
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 3: I might have Hopkins versus Ridley is a conversation for me.

463
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, we get two Tennessee wide receivers, and I don't

464
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: trust that passing.

465
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 3: Game enough to do that.

466
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 2: I don't believe levis sixty nine. Terry McLaurin.

467
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 3: I'll tak McLaurin over a lot of those guys.

468
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, seventy c J. Stroud doesn't run, seventy one. Dak

469
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 2: Prescott doesn't run seventy two. Last pick of the sixth round,

470
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 2: DeAndre Swift.

471
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 3: They paid them money, but there's other guys there. He's

472
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 3: not good in protection.

473
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 2: Seventy three. Joe Burrow round seven. Burrow, Dak and Stroud

474
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:57,440
Speaker 2: are like the same guy. Yeah, most seventy four Jaylem Warren, I'm.

475
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 3: Buying at that price.

476
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. It is running back twenty four and this

477
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: is a PPR he said, right, Yeah, yeah, he used

478
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 2: to catch balls. Seventy five, Christian Kirk seventy six. Kyler

479
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: Murray is a QB nine.

480
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 3: He's gonna be on my team.

481
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 2: That's a steel.

482
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

483
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 2: Chris Goblin at seventy seven, Keenan Allen at seventy.

484
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 3: Eight, they probably won't treat you wrong.

485
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 2: Deontay Johnson at seventy nine is wide receiver thirty seven.

486
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 3: Pretty cheap for the target, so yeah. Zach Moss at

487
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,959
Speaker 3: eighty I think he's a Bengal to own. Everyone's liked

488
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 3: about Chase Brown, but I would rather have Bond.

489
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Eighty one Rashi Rice, who knows, who knows?

490
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: Who knows? I think his role's going down either.

491
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 2: Way, Okay now. Eighty two Brian Robinson is RB twenty seven.

492
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 2: Hey Beckler, though, I don't get that at all. He's

493
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 2: not gonna catch you any passes. Their offensive line stinks.

494
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, he would be low on my list. I make

495
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 3: him over Nause. He's crazy to me.

496
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 2: Eighty three Javonte Williams, same thing. Love the player, Yeah,

497
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: two three years ago. I don't know what. He still

498
00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 2: got it with him, and they're gonna stink.

499
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 3: They drafted estimate for a reason.

500
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Eighty four George Kittle was tight end nine.

501
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 3: Oh oh, buy that great offense. I mean he's gonna

502
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 3: score eighty five.

503
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 2: Ty J Spears at RB twenty nine.

504
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 3: I'm glad he's had a Pollard. I like Spears more

505
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 3: than Pollard this year on the same team.

506
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 2: Eighty six Christen Watson is RB or wide receiver thirty nine.

507
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 3: Maybe is a amstring thing figured out.

508
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 2: Eighty seven We finally get the Nause. Harris as RB

509
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 2: thirty at all day long RB thirty.

510
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's too low. I'll take that. I mean, I

511
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 3: don't think he's to win your league, but I think

512
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 3: he's gonna get you eight to fifteen points a week.

513
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the consistency. Eighty eight Marquise Brown, eighty nine,

514
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 2: Austin ar I assume it'll be the third down back

515
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 2: on a losing team. Ninety Tony Pollard, Yeah, ninety one

516
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 2: Raheem Mostert.

517
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 3: He scares me, but he scored a million touchdown last year.

518
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: Ninety two Devin Singletary scares me, but no competition ninety three,

519
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: Jordan Addison ninety four, tight end ten. Jake Ferguson is right,

520
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 2: ninety five Jackson Smith and Jigbuck going ahead of Lockett

521
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 2: of Lockett.

522
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder what who's gonna be in the two

523
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 3: receiver sets. We'll get that news, yeah before long.

524
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 2: Ninety six Courtland Sutton kind of boring.

525
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, Targets.

526
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna look down here. So round nine, uh t?

527
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 2: J Hawkinson in round ten is tight end eleven? Are

528
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 2: you kidding me?

529
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 3: Well? He might start, he may not play it with Thanksgiving,

530
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 3: that's true. Yeah, I mean, but I think he's probably

531
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:29,120
Speaker 3: a pop guy.

532
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 2: I'll take him and just stash him.

533
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 3: He's I mean he should be if he's healthy. He's

534
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 3: two or three.

535
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna get again Pepper with targets. Mike Williams

536
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 2: in the in round ten.

537
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 3: He's still not as healthy as people think.

538
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't hate that though. No, at this point,

539
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 2: you know, now you're talking about your fourth or fifth

540
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: receiver there, I'll take him. Still haven't gotten to I'm

541
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 2: looking here for farm with He's not around eleven, he's

542
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 2: not in around twelve.

543
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 3: I'm sure a couple of tight ends will come off

544
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 3: the board too.

545
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 2: Pick one fifty three, round thirteen, Pat Fryarmuth as tight

546
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: end fifteen.

547
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: Tight end fifteen doesn't sound crazy.

548
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 2: A kicker went ahead of him, then.

549
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 3: He'll probably be my tight end twelve. Yeah, you know,

550
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 3: like when you said Ferguson, I thought this might be

551
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 3: the spot when I'm willing to take Friarmuth over the

552
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 3: tight ends you've mentioned. Yeah, I mean, I'm not putting

553
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,399
Speaker 3: them over Pitch or Ingram yet or Nijoku. But I

554
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 3: think there's plans there.

555
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,719
Speaker 2: Absolutely, absolutely that's going to do it for the fantasy

556
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 2: football focus. He is the Matt Williamson I'm dale Lolly.

557
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 2: We'll be back with more right after this. This.

558
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: He's the drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on

559
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: your twenty four to seven home of the Black and

560
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: Gold car Steelers Nation Radio.

561
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: Welcome back on Dale Lolli. He is the Matt Williamson

562
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 2: and this is the drive on Steelers Nation Radio. And

563
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 2: Matt's on the thirty third team. Ian Valentino's ranked what

564
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 2: he believes are the top ten rosters entering the twenty

565
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: twenty four season. And I just scanned through it here

566
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: while you went and got some water. Yeah, got a

567
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 2: little refreshment and one of the pipes. I'm gonna tell

568
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 2: you I got a problem with some of these. Right,

569
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 2: let's take let's take anym we'll discuss this.

570
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 3: So these are always weird, just because if I have

571
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes and fifty two, the.

572
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 2: Quarterback has to be factored into things.

573
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you can't go too crazy on right for

574
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 3: the sake of lists. And you know, so are the

575
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 3: bills too. They shouldn't be you know what I mean.

576
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: So I don't know what to do about that, Okay,

577
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 3: if I were in charge.

578
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 2: So at ten he has the rams.

579
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 3: Ooh, that defense doesn't. There's no fire much.

580
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 2: No, that's not a great roster.

581
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 3: It's not a great roster. It's a cheap, rebuilding roster

582
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 3: with some stars. They lost a big time star.

583
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 2: That's a big time star.

584
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 3: I think Stafford honestly is the best quarterback in the NFC,

585
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 3: So that carries weight. But those around him aren't great.

586
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 3: You know that would not be a top ten roster.

587
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 2: No, no, no, nor for me. At number nine, he has

588
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 2: the Green Bay Packers. I don't have a problem with that.

589
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 3: One coming along really well. Yeah, and you would think

590
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 3: that takes a step forward. It's small things, but they

591
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 3: added a Xavier McKinney, and you know, they got all

592
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 3: these draft picks coming together. I don't know where their

593
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 3: weaknesses are at.

594
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you.

595
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like where they're At.

596
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 2: Number eight, he has the Baltimore Ravens, and I have

597
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: a problem with that one. You can't be as going

598
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 2: into training camp not knowing who three of your starters

599
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 2: are on your offensive line and have the eighth best

600
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 2: roster in the league.

601
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 3: See, I was about to say we the I as

602
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 3: well say, now, I think it's a good roster. They're

603
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three roster to me is top two or three. Yeah,

604
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 3: but you'll listen, queen, and the O line's a mess,

605
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 3: and the offseason wasn't kind to them.

606
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 2: No, it was not. They lost as much as any

607
00:26:58,640 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 2: team in the league.

608
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 3: They did, and so they would probably be outside my

609
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 3: top ten. Is it the best roster in the division?

610
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 2: Well, there's another team here, yeah. Seven. Again. Got an

611
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 2: issue with this one, the Miami Dolphins. They do not

612
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 2: have a tops They're not top seven roster in the league.

613
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: You can't be as bad as they are in the

614
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: offensive line.

615
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

616
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 2: Remember we went over those rankings Earl Wilkins and you

617
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 2: lost Christian Wilkins like that.

618
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 3: That's not to me. They have some really exciting players.

619
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 3: I don't I certainly don't like their.

620
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 2: They're pretty top heavy.

621
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, twenty to thirty on their team is

622
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 3: not great. No, you know, let alone to the bottom

623
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 3: of the roster.

624
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 2: Number seven in the elite Yeah, come on, number six

625
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: the Jets. Yes, I think that's probably I think that's

626
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 2: fair in that range. Yeah, they're somewhere in the top ten.

627
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 3: I don't love the organization. I don't love some of

628
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 3: the way they're doing things. But if you're looking at

629
00:27:58,920 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 3: a fifty two.

630
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 2: Just what they just what they look at right now. Yeah,

631
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: five weeks into the season, they may be going. Yeah,

632
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: our roster is not as good as what we thought.

633
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 2: But right now.

634
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 3: They would be high on my list. That'd be the

635
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 3: highest one we've mentioned yet.

636
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 2: Number five Detroit, they would be higher on my list.

637
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 3: It's really good. They're number two receivers. My only concern

638
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 3: and that's could be James, James and Williams. Yeah, not terrible. Yeah.

639
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 3: Their defense I think got better. Yeah, I mean they

640
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 3: got They got backed a quarterback.

641
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: To our rankings that we did earlier this week of

642
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 2: Austin offensive lines, that's the number one offensive line in

643
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 2: the league to me. That carries a lot of weight. Absolutely,

644
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 2: They're not bad at quarterback right now. They might be

645
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 2: number two good running backs. There's a lot there to like.

646
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 3: I mean, even guys like Jack Campbell could be a

647
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: lot better this year.

648
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 2: You know you would expect that he would be Yeah, yeah, yeah,

649
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 2: they would be much higher for me. Number four Kansas

650
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 2: City defense is pretty stacked. I think it's I think

651
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 2: it's a really good rush.

652
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, obviously Mahomes carries massive amounts of weight.

653
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 3: We've talked about their tackles to death. That's worries.

654
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 2: So that's worrisome, lose, you know, getting rid of sneed worrisome.

655
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 3: You need a corner to step up. Of course they'll

656
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 3: be fine. No one's crying for the Chiefs. But they'd

657
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 3: be my top ten for sure. Yeah. I don't know

658
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 3: if they top five.

659
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 2: I don't know before.

660
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't behind the Lions.

661
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 2: I think it would definitely be behind the Lions.

662
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, me too.

663
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: Number three Cleveland the third best roster in the league

664
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 2: when you don't know what your quarterback is going to do.

665
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 3: This comes back to my original conversation is how much

666
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 3: we waiting quarterback? I mean, like if they had golf

667
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 3: and not only need but homes right, third best in

668
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 3: the league, Yes, you know, third best?

669
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, but I'm saying right to put them

670
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 2: third best.

671
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 3: M I like the rest of their squad. I don't

672
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 3: love it.

673
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 2: They got some spots that I look at.

674
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I always feel like they're searching a receiver.

675
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

676
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: I think the old Lions due to take a little

677
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 3: step backwards with age They're running group is bad. Yeah,

678
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 3: I'm not giving Chub any credit. It might be the

679
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 3: worst running back group in the league when you take

680
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 3: chub yeah, and quarterbacks a little rough. Defense is good. Yeah,

681
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: they wouldn't be three. I mean they would be ahead

682
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 3: the Chiefs or the Lions. Oh, they might be number

683
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 3: one in the division. For me, I don't have a

684
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 3: problem with that. Yeah, third best, but they would be

685
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 3: like eighth.

686
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's too high.

687
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

688
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 2: Two is Philadelphia pretty good?

689
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 3: Pretty good. I mean things didn't go well at the

690
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 3: end of the season, but they added to it. Yeah,

691
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 3: they got reinforcements and go get those corners. Yeah, that's

692
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 3: fine with me.

693
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 2: And then number one is San Francisco.

694
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 3: I have a problem with that either. I mean their

695
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 3: star power is insane. Yeah, what a team like Dallas.

696
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 2: Dallas is a team that should be in that in

697
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 2: that consideration, I think since in Pittsburgh should be in

698
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 2: that consideration.

699
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 3: Buffalo is not what they used to be, but they're

700
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 3: not bad, right and they might be.

701
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 2: I think they got a better rush than Miami.

702
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 3: I was just gonna say that division, you get Milano back,

703
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: and yeah, it's not too shabby. Houston.

704
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: Houston's got a good roster. They had quite a bit,

705
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 2: certainly better than the Rams. Yeah, Like, I don't understand

706
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 2: the Rams being on that list at all.

707
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 3: Would you consider Chicago not yet not the top ten,

708
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 3: but improving at least not in the top ten, right,

709
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 3: I'm just no one like Seattle or no division by

710
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 3: division you.

711
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:24,719
Speaker 2: Know the West.

712
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 3: No. No, But there's about five of them I would

713
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 3: have in my top ten that they didn't and Rams

714
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 3: would not be. I don't think the Ravens would be.

715
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 3: You know, it's not a bad list, but again I

716
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 3: would have a hard time. How much way do we

717
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 3: put on quarterback?

718
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 2: And if you are House Cleveland three, that's the thing, like.

719
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 3: If you if you put in and then kansasity, we won, right,

720
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: I mean, just I'll take him and you can have

721
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 3: the next three pick, you know what I mean, roll

722
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 3: the dice there.

723
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 2: But you can't tell me that a team like the Rams,

724
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 2: if I'm matching rosters with Pittsburgh or Cincinnati or one

725
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: of those teams we just talked about, you can't tell

726
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 2: me they're a top ten roster. No.

727
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 3: I mean, especially if he just took quarterback out.

728
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 2: I mean, he seems to be waiting wide receiver much higher.

729
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 2: Like because because Miami's on this list, the Rams are

730
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 2: on this list raiting wide receiver much and if if

731
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 2: that's the case, why is in Houston on this list?

732
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, or I mean even Dallas with Lamb, right,

733
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,720
Speaker 3: I mean there's a lot of good ones. I don't

734
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 3: love the list the more we think through it. Yeah,

735
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 3: I mean, say, I don't have a problem with Sam

736
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 3: fram being at the top, but they have some chinks too.

737
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 2: I think, you know, looking at this, let's pretend we're

738
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: not on Steelers Nation Radio. Steelers are easily top fifteen.

739
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I think they're the just miscategory. Yeah. Not.

740
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 3: They have an O line I think you can trust.

741
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 3: I'd point to holes it questions quarterback, and I had

742
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 3: a whole at wide receiver.

743
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 2: But people seem to be questioning the cornerback position, and

744
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: I don't get that.

745
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, is Jackson going to be a hit? Maybe?

746
00:32:59,160 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 3: Maybe not?

747
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 2: Is he gonna be better than Levi Wallace was last year?

748
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 3: Exactly? That's about say too or Peterson?

749
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah? Is is camp Sutton gonna be better than you know?

750
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 3: There?

751
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 2: There's guys to.

752
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 3: Me eliminates the concerns there, and no team in the

753
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 3: league has gotten through cut corners at corner more than

754
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 3: the Steelers. They know how to deal with just average dudes.

755
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, because they rush.

756
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 3: It's Melt Blunt and Rod Woodson.

757
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

758
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 3: I mean, so they do that by on purpose where

759
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 3: I don't need two studs there, and I think they'll

760
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 3: be fine at corner.

761
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

762
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 3: They've played with some guys that are just average dudes.

763
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 2: You know, if micka Fitzpatrick gets back to them to being

764
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 2: able to play the way he can play, I mean,

765
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 2: I don't see, I don't I don't see many holes defensively.

766
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 3: I would say if we're ranking front sevens or d lines,

767
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 3: they're in tough five. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, so his

768
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 3: secondary one of the worst in the league. I don't

769
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 3: think so.

770
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

771
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 3: It can't be.

772
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 2: You gotta you gotta a young cornerback who was one

773
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 2: of the best, you know, one of the best statistically.

774
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 2: And I'm not talking about just he's by my judgment,

775
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 2: he's one of the best. No, he's statistically. He was

776
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: one of the best guys in the league last year.

777
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, if thirty two gms are picking who

778
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 3: do you want for this year at corner, I bet

779
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 3: he's a top ten pick. Yeah, and for now, not

780
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 3: even the future. Yeah, yeah, so I agree.

781
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,040

818

Speaker 2: opportunity for you to go see practice in the morning

819
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,319

00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:08,239

Speaker 3: Right? I didn't want to throw you under the bus,

873
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 3: but you give a little different look about you than

874
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 3: you did the last time.

875
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 2: I'm hopeful by then. Just to give everybody a little

876
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 2: bit of an update here again, the surgery went great

877
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 2: and everything's good. I've had multiple check ups since then.

878
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,919
Speaker 2: You know, the everything's starting to come back into the shape. Here.

879
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 2: As I mentioned earlier this week, I had the wisdom

880
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 2: tooth pull because I got to start radiation treatments here

881
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,799
Speaker 2: within the next probably the next two weeks.

882
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 3: And that might overlap with camp a.

883
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: Little a little bit, but I'm gonna I'm gonna do

884
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 2: the shows and we'll make it work. And uh, you know,

885
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 2: we got to the show must go on.

886
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 3: See, I haven't addressed this to you off the air,

887
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 3: but it might be time. I mean, I need to

888
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 3: look for a new Sharky's buddy. But looking ready to

889
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 3: go there yet, all right, we're not putting you out to.

890
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 2: Pass my appointment yesterday that I had the they talked

891
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 2: about the radiation treatment and how it affects different people differently.

892
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 2: But the good thing that they that I heard was

893
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 2: that usually you start to feel a little bit of

894
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 2: the of the effects of it after three weeks, but

895
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 2: as long as you're not going over five weeks, it

896
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 2: doesn't get super bad, hopefully. So I'm very hopeful, you know,

897
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 2: I'm still you know, everybody that they're dealing with, for

898
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 2: the most part, not everybody, but a lot of the

899
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 2: people that they deal with that are dealing with situations

900
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: like mine.

901
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 3: Are older I would imagine.

902
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 2: And like, so I yesterday I signed up to take

903
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 2: part in a because I'm doing stuff at the University

904
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 2: of Pittsburgh through UPMC, and I signed up to do

905
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 2: a study a couple actually a couple of case studies

906
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 2: to see how you know, that's this is going to

907
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 2: affect me and because they said it affects different people

908
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 2: differently and if if you're you're on the good side

909
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,839
Speaker 2: of that or the bad side of that, they will

910
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 2: find out why.

911
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 3: Okay, so you'll see I'm sure a lot it's just

912
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 3: genetics or.

913
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 2: And that's part of it. So they did, you know,

914
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 2: they did a blood dross, so they looked at my

915
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 2: blood now and they're going to take, you know, continue

916
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 2: to look at how this affects me in terms of

917
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 2: you know, like strength of my neck and things of

918
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 2: that nature and measured all that, you know.

919
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 3: Pre So I mean, I'm sure you're in the best spot,

920
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 3: in the best hands.

921
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, absolutely, yeah, absolutely yeah. Doctor Contrera over

922
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,080

923
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 2: surgeons you know, in the in the country, and you know,

924
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,960

925
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 2: I don't expect to miss anything. You know. My my

926
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 2: expectation is that the show will go on, and I

927
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 2: just wanted to make note that we will be videoing

928
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 2: the show.

929
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 3: More than you look at this guy. I mean for

930
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 3: two or three hours behind the camera every day. We'll see, Yeah,

931
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 3: it would be fun.

932
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 2: We'll have fun with it and and we'll see if

933
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:57,840

934
00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 2: there has been some talk about some things like that,

935
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 2: but looking forward to it, I really am. I think

936
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 2: that this camp because of some of the battles that

937
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 2: are going to take place, you know, and.

938
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 3: The quarterback situation is a blast in itself. Yeah.

939
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 2: Another thing that Omar Khan said yesterday was that he

940
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 2: was asked if Troy Fatanu is a is a right

941
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 2: tackle Steelers And yes.

942
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 3: Oh good, Okay, So I'm glad that's clearer. That's how

943
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 3: I've envisioned it all along. Yeah, and that it may

944
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 3: not be right away. Yeah, it doesn't have to be.

945
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 2: But you know, you know, people are throwing Dan Moore

946
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 2: aside like he's just nothing. And as we always say,

947
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 2: guys are allowed to get better.

948
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, and he's the bird in the hand. They

949
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 3: know what they have in the guy.

950
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 2: And the best thing that Dan Moore does. He's a

951
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 2: hell of a run blocker, he is, and if you

952
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 2: want to run the football the way they want to

953
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 2: run the football, Okay, I.

954
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 3: Mean I don't expect him to beat out either of

955
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 3: the first round picks as a starter, but he can

956
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,359
Speaker 3: be my extra tight end and six guy all day,

957
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 3: all day long. Yeah, especially in running situations. I mean,

958
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 3: I think you could see a lot of that. And again,

959
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 3: he's not a bad player. People think he's you know,

960
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 3: got no chance. I mean, those guys are just the

961
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 3: guys that they've drafted are just ultra prospect.

962
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: Everybody looks at the Pro Football Focus grades, yeah, and

963
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 2: takes that as gospel. Again, nothing against Pro Football Focus.

964
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 2: There are a lot of useful tools on that website,

965
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 2: but their grades, I you know, their least favorite thing

966
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 2: on the website, and it is particularly in with offensive

967
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 2: line play and secondary play.

968
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 3: There's such team things. You know, everyone's assignment before you

969
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,320
Speaker 3: can really judge, you don't know, and you just don't

970
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 3: know secondary in particular. Yeah, always go back to the

971
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,919
Speaker 3: bouncy thing. Right, he's the twentieth best center in the league,

972
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:40,279
Speaker 3: and then the right up is well, he's asked to

973
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 3: do some more single blocking and harder things than any

974
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 3: center in football.

975
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 2: And then that can't be that can't be twentiethetic. It

976
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 2: just can't make that. You can't compare him to a

977
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 2: guy that's just being asked to snap the football. And

978
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 2: there's a health guy, you know.

979
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 3: I mean you think the Steelers would have him on

980
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 3: islands if they didn't think he was an elite player.

981
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're pulling the way that he did and thinks

982
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 2: that nature. That's the thing Arthur Smith brought that. You know,

983
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 2: he was asked about the offensive tackles when he taught

984
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 2: spoke earlier this week and some of the the athleticism

985
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,480
Speaker 2: of the two young guys, the way they move and

986
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 2: the things that you can do with that. He said, Look,

987
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 2: it's gonna be it's gonna be monstrous in like the

988
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:16,879
Speaker 2: screen game and things of that nature. Getting those guys

989
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 2: on the move.

990
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 3: I mean we even saw it last year. I mean

991
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,359
Speaker 3: Jones is a weapon on the move.

992
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think and Fitanho's every bit.

993
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 3: Yes, that probably more mobile even Yeah, I don't know

994
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 3: if he's as much of it well i'd say as

995
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 3: physical or as much of a killer, but.

996
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 2: Do that.

997
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 3: They might have a one upmanship, you know, and just

998
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 3: who can blast people in the next week. I can't

999
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 3: wait to I mean, tackle play doesn't sound exciting, but

1000
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 3: it's to be exciting.

1001
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 2: I can't wait to watch those guys. There's gonna be

1002
00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 2: a lot of great battles at camp. You know, we'll

1003
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 2: find out. You know, do they need to go do

1004
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 2: something at that with that number two receiver.

1005
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 3: You know, to carry it out for all those guys.

1006
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 2: George Pickens working out of the slot this week, I.

1007
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 3: Mean even oh really, yeah, okay, I mean there's even

1008
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 3: small things like McCormick. For me, I'm oh, yeah. I

1009
00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 3: loved them coming to the draft. I thought that after

1010
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 3: the two picks, there's no chance he'll be a Steeler.

1011
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 3: What's his development? Look like he's gonna play a ton

1012
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 3: in preseasons. Yeah, there's a lot of those kind of

1013
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 3: story there.

1014
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 2: Watching Wilson run around. Yeah, you know, he's good. He

1015
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 2: is my bet to lead to Steelers in preseason tackles.

1016
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:15,400
Speaker 2: It's Peyton Wilson.

1017
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 3: That's a strong bet.

1018
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 2: The other thing, one of the other things I made

1019
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 2: note of it today in my five for Friday, Omar

1020
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 2: Kahn talking about Cole Holcombe because Mike Tomlin was asked yesterday,

1021
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 2: do you expect everybody to be ready to start a

1022
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 2: training camp? Is there gonna be anybody that's going to

1023
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 2: be limited?

1024
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 3: He should be the most likely candidate, and he.

1025
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 2: Said no, He said, I expect everybody to be available.

1026
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:42,399
Speaker 2: Cole Holcomb has a doctor's appointment in July to see

1027
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,320
Speaker 2: if he's going to be cleared to return to the field.

1028
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 2: If that happens, this roster loaded unbelievable.

1029
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean those four linebackers.

1030
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 2: It might be I hate to say this to raise

1031
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 2: people's expectations, it might be a top five off ball

1032
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 2: linebacker unit in the NFL, which is.

1033
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,080
Speaker 3: A long long way from what it has been. Yeah.

1034
00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 2: Now that assumes Cole Hulkom gets back because he was

1035
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 2: playing well when he got hurt.

1036
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 3: I was very impressive, man. Yeah, him, Roberts and Alexander

1037
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:12,240
Speaker 3: were a quality trio.

1038
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 2: If he can get back to that, and then you

1039
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:19,000
Speaker 2: add Wilson to the equation, the well alone queen look out.

1040
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that instead of a quality trio, now

1041
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 3: it's like a really good foursome. Yeah.

1042
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 2: This this is going from rush to cream or rush

1043
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 2: or cream to Zeppelin.

1044
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Jimmy Page works. That's a nice step up.

1045
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 2: Anyways, Yeah, good stuff today, Matt.

1046
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 3: That's our next football.

1047
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: We can't absolutely, but we'll have plenty left to talk

1048
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 2: about here. We got all kinds of stuff. We were

1049
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 2: constantly texting each other back and forth with ideas to

1050
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 2: come up with the talk talk to football, that's what

1051
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 2: we do.

1052
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 3: Sweet two.

1053
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 2: We talked, Yeah, I'm looking that's going to be off.

1054
00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 2: I'm only here one day next week, one day next
