The new England Patriots 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 1: flag now here to preview the offensive lineman. The writers 6 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: of Patriots dot Com Time once again for another draft 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: podcast preview offensive line. You know my favorite micd so 8 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: offensive lineman. The big guys up front. Those are the 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: guys that make the engine go, don't you know, the 10 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: big guys up front on both sides of the ball. 11 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: It's all about line play, said no one anywhere ever, 12 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: except for Mike dou sou defensive line. I could get 13 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: at the offensive lines a little bit of a slog, 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: but hey, position of need for the Patriots. They ted 15 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: Harris has gone, Shack Mason got traded, so so definitely 16 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: need a guard and then you know a tackle. You 17 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: brought Trump brownback, but Isaiah went entering the last year 18 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: of his deal, so you have some injury concerns with 19 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: the two guys that are there. Justin Harran showed some promise, 20 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: but I think it's a long term need as well. 21 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of these positions are on 22 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: the table for them early and often. Absolutely, and we 23 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: are wrapping up offense today. This is our final position 24 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: on offense only because I couldn't put it off any longer. 25 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: We will do the offensive line. And as has been 26 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: the case throughout our twenty twenty two draft A preview podcasts, 27 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: Matise Bauman is with us as well, probably not as 28 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: eager on this one Mike as he has been with 29 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 1: you know, running backs and wide receivers, and I don't know, 30 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,199 Speaker 1: he's pretty excited upstairs all the Glen response. But tease, 31 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: what say you of the Specifically, it's start off with tackle. 32 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: We'll spend most of our time with tackle. And I 33 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: think Mike is right. I think this is an area 34 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: that the Patriots could absolutely call upon at pick number 35 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: twenty one. Offensive line, as Mike mapped out, is in 36 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 1: need for the Patriots. Any of these guys stick out 37 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: to you at the top, Definitely, Evan Neil. I mean 38 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: he's just a behemoth six seven, three hundred and thirty 39 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: seven pounds, very quick for his overall size. I think 40 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: that might be one of the number one picks off 41 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: the board. I don't know how he wasted three hundred 42 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: and thirty seven pounds and he's just looking at him. 43 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: I mean there's not much fat at all on him, 44 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: no bad weight at all. Another Alabama guy, but absolutely 45 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: him and if if he could also be a potential 46 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: you know, top five pick. I think those two guys, 47 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: those guys top ten anyway, And I agree with you 48 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: another thing that really stuck out, and not just with 49 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,839 Speaker 1: these top two guys, and they clearly with the top 50 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: two guys, but um, a lot of nasty in some 51 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: of these guys. Just tossing dudes around after you know 52 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: at or as they say in the draft, draft speak 53 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: to the echo of the whistle. They like to play 54 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: to the echo of the whistle. I agree with you 55 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: guys about both of those players. Evan Neil, I think 56 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: is going to be another one on the long line 57 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: of just solid prospects coming out the Alabama offensive line. 58 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: But moving a little bit further down the line here, 59 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: there were reports last week that the Patriots had some 60 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: had one of the visits, one of the thirty visits 61 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: with Trevor Penning right, that was the the offensive him. 62 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 1: You know me, they are all blending together. Offensive. Where 63 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: do I tell you you're dead on, do it on 64 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: your own time, but this is my time, so I'm here. 65 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: I might as well talk about Penning a little bit. 66 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: My one concern there, And I don't know how you 67 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: guys felt about this. It's just the level of competition. 68 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: Just you watch the Northern Iowa tape and not that 69 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: we have extensive you know, catalogs of tape that we're watching, 70 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: but you see the highlights. He's so much bigger than 71 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: anybody else on the field. Yeah, and you just wonder, 72 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, if if it was a little bit more 73 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: of an even playing field, which obviously it will be 74 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: next year, does the same kind of dominance, you know, 75 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: shine through. Yeah. I think he showed up well at 76 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. I know, watching some of those practices, 77 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: he had a little extra business for everybody a little 78 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: after the whistle, getting guys, So you know, how's that 79 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: going to carry over as well? But but you gotta 80 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: love the attitude and I think, you know, depending on 81 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: what you look at. Again, a lot of these mock 82 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: drafts are all over the place, but I feel like 83 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: Penning could could definitely be a guy that that's kind 84 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: of in their range along with with the the guy 85 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: from Austria. Bernard Raymond, who who I talked to with 86 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: the combine, asked him a little bit of, you know 87 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: about about his inspiration along the international journey, and you know, 88 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: he specifically called out Jacob Johnson and Sebastian Volmer. It's 89 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 1: hard not to, you know, see shades of Volmer, see 90 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: shades a little bit of Nate Solder with his you know, 91 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: start as a tight end. So he's got some athletic 92 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: feat but um, you know again, everybody's gotten some concerns 93 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: and I think he's one who's late to the game. 94 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: He's learning it a little bit. So I think Penning Raymond, 95 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: those guys seem to potentially make sense in that twenty 96 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: one area if they were to fall. Both could be 97 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: a third tackled as a rookie backup, get their feet 98 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: wet a little bit and learn the pro game. So 99 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: like both those guys, I think they're they're sort of 100 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: a made soldier profile. You know. The idea was to 101 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: bring him in Havenim be the third guy, uh and 102 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: then you know rustled in. But yeah, you get an 103 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: injury and you get thrust into it like Solder did. 104 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: But um, which one of those two did? You like 105 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: tease out of Penning Penning in Raymond, I like Penning more. 106 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: I think just with the small skoy is a little 107 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: bit of a a chip on his shoulder. As Mike said 108 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: at the Senior Bowl, he was getting into it after 109 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: the whistle. Didn't want people to know that he's from 110 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: a all school. It's not gonna hold him back. Yeah, 111 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: and I did. Like you know, Mike referenced the tight 112 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: end background for Raymond, it wasn't just like that he 113 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: was a high school you know, these guys are all 114 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: high school somethings. Yet twenty catches at Central Michigan as 115 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: a tight end in his first couple of seasons, So 116 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more athleticism there, I would say, than 117 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: what you're going to typically get at that poses. I 118 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: mean not to you know, jump down the list a 119 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: little bit. But you know, the other guy who played 120 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: on the other side, Lucadecki, is another former tight end 121 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: that they moved there at Central Michigan UM and and 122 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of a later round process prospect, 123 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: but a guy that that I also liked and you know, 124 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: stuck out to me. You kind of get stuck watching Raymond. 125 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: But but I think he got highlighted with with some 126 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 1: of his good plays over at the right tackle spot. 127 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: I think ideally you'd love to get a guy who 128 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: has those athletic features to play potentially left tackle, that would, 129 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: you know, give you some long term excitement about developing somebody. 130 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: But but he was another guy just to kind of 131 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: tie it in real quick with the central Michigan connection. Yeah, 132 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: and I do think tackle would be a position at 133 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: twenty one that I would would make some sense, and 134 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: you know, moving further down if they don't, if they're 135 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: not able to get it in the first round, because 136 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: I really think they could take anything. We've talked about 137 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: this at all of the different podcasts we've already done. 138 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: They could take almost anything at twenty one. I'd rather 139 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: see a tackle though, than an interior guy if they're 140 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: going to go really at the top of the draft. 141 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: And some people disagree with that because we're gonna start 142 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: talking about some guards now too. And Zion Johnson, the 143 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: kid from Boston College right here in our backyard. You know, 144 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: there's a guy that a lot of people are very 145 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: high on. He looks the part I mean, he could play. 146 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you this guy's not going to be 147 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: able to play. I just I don't know if if 148 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: taking a guard. You know, like a lot of people said, well, 149 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: Logan Mankins was a guard. Well, there's two things involved 150 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: in that pick that to me are a little bit different. 151 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: Number One, he was a tackle in college, and I 152 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: don't think Bill Belichick knew when he drafted him he 153 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: was automatically going to be a guard. That happened great, 154 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 1: worked out one of the best offensive linemen in the 155 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: history of the franchise. But the second part of that 156 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: is taken with the thirty second overall pick. So twenty 157 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that doesn't seem like that much, but twenty 158 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: one and thirty two, to me, that that's a significant difference. 159 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: I just I feel like you can get guards. I 160 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: feel like tackles are tougher to find, So if you're 161 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: gonna go offensive line, I'd rather it be tackle. I 162 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: don't know how you guys feeling that. I'm with you 163 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: on that one, and I throw it in two. You know, 164 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: that was a Patriots team thirty two, coming off a 165 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl championship. Maybe not quite the vast number of 166 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: needs that this team kind of needs right now, but 167 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, to to Kenyan Green is another one I'd 168 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: throw in the mix, and you know, I think he 169 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: almost plays a little bit more of a chip on 170 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: his shoulder. He's played all over the line, which is 171 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: something that I always kind of have my radar out 172 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: for with these guys on the inside, and you know, 173 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: having that ability and design has the ability too, I 174 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: think to fill in outside in a pinch. But but 175 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: I think those two were kind of the top two guards, 176 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: and I think that by the time they get to 177 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: twenty one, they're probably going to be around. So it's 178 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: it's definitely something to talk about. I like Charles Cross 179 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: and I think he plays tackle, but he can also 180 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: play a bit of guard. I think, as we say, 181 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: versatility is key and if you can really move along 182 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: the line helps. I would put the kid from Kentucky 183 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: there too, Dari and Knard. I think it is um 184 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: He played all tackle at Kentucky and kind of a 185 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: different kind of offense too, that Liam Cohen offense. You 186 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: know who's starting to get a lot of buzz now 187 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: the former UMass quarterback who is now did he get 188 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,679 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator job where I'm not sure I forget well, anyway, 189 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: he was UMass quarterbacks was, yeah, we'll get it in. 190 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: He went to he coached all throughout New England and 191 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: then he got the offensive coordinator job at Kentucky, so 192 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: a different kind of offense that he ran. I think 193 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: Canard is better suited for guard based on what I read. 194 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: Not going to try to pretend that I made the 195 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: evaluation because I don't do that. I don't pretend I 196 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: make these evaluations. I rely on others to do show 197 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: for me, and he did. He did look like he 198 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: had those kinds of skill sets. Maybe works a little 199 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: bit better in tighter quarters. Um, you know, in terms 200 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: of the other interior guys. You know a little bit 201 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: further down, another small school guy out of Chattanooga, Cole Strange, 202 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: love that name. Cole stopular one. Um, you know out 203 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: of Chattanooga. He's another one that you guys talked about. 204 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: Went to the Senior Bowl, um, you know, which is 205 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: good for those you know, the lower level Division one guys, 206 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: the FCS guys. It gives him a chance to compete 207 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: against the best and he can sort of evaluate a 208 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: little bit. So he's a maybe a Day three guy 209 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: or you know, maybe a late Day two guy at best. Um. 210 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: You know, so if you're looking a little bit further 211 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: down the line, those are some of the guys that 212 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: you're looking at. Jamari Sailor from Uh he's a favorite 213 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: of himself. He uh yeah, remind me a little bit 214 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: of on when you you know thickness like just one 215 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: you just seemed so wide to us. I remember when 216 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: him rock walking out the training camp as a rookie 217 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: and just like big Mike there he is. You can 218 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: just see this massive square kind of water rectangle walking 219 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: onto the field. UM. I felt that way with him. 220 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: He just felt like a big brute um that that 221 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: you know, maybe could be complimentary to that style. Cold 222 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: Cole Strange, I definitely put a check mark next to him. 223 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: He's been a popular one. Just thought he was a 224 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: good athlete and uh and one other was Dylan Parham. 225 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Um I wrote Ted Carris down a little bit of 226 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: reminder there another versatile guy for your starter. UM a 227 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: lot of experience. But you know, I think these interior 228 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: guys you mentioned Strange, Sallier, even Tyrese Robinson from Oklahoma 229 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: and guy I talked too with the Combine about Romandre Um. 230 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: There's just these mid round kind of guys that you 231 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: think may might even be able to come in and start. 232 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: I mean, look over the mind you did so put 233 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: some center too at the Senior Bowl. So again to 234 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: Matisa's point about the versatility, if you can move around 235 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: those interior guys, it really helps you. If you could 236 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: play all three of those spots. Yep, for sure, but 237 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: lots of options and you know, as I just find, 238 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: these are the hardest positions to to really get a 239 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: beat on. You certainly like guys who are versatile, guys 240 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: who have been captains, you know, guys who can move 241 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: pretty well. I think that's something they look at with, 242 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: you know, like a model of Shack Mason, not the 243 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: biggest guy, but can really run so any of those 244 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: things that they can do. But you know who was 245 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: on will Sherman last year, or it's you get down 246 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: in these day three guys don't need to be it's 247 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: kind of it's trying to find, you know, that that 248 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: random guy that that they like. But but I think 249 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: there's a lot of options and you know, hopefully they 250 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: can come out, I really do. I think they've got 251 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: some depth, but I think they need to solidify things, 252 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: especially for the long term at tackle. I think you 253 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: could get two offensive lineman in this draft class. It's 254 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 1: always a spot that that Belichick likes to tap at 255 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: the draft anyway, but they have a need and just 256 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: it would be remiss if you didn't mention Tyler Linderbaum 257 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: only because here's the top rated center in the class 258 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: and he went to Iowa. So it's all those Belichick 259 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: kind of things like what could be better? But it 260 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: looks like he may be a little bit higher than 261 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: the way they would draft him. But he's like one 262 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: of those step right in. He's your guy for for 263 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: the foreseeable future. Yeah, so, uh, I'm not going to 264 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: spend too much time on the centers, but we all agree, Uh, 265 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: you know, the offensive line is a need. There are 266 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: some tackles here. I know the Patriots have looked at 267 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: some of them, They've had some of them come in. 268 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: So we'll have to try to figure out if that's 269 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: smokescreen or how much reality there is to it. And 270 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: sometimes it just kind of comes down to how the 271 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: board unfolds and who they like the most. But this 272 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: is a position of need, even though I don't care 273 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: to talk about it anymore, that I happen. So I'll 274 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: leave that with you. Guys. And now that's going to 275 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: wrap up offense, but we have a long way to 276 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: go because there's some positions on defense too. We'll get 277 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: to those next.
