WEBVTT - The OTP | Offensive Draft Prospects

0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>This is the OTP presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans.

0:00:20.000 --> 0:00:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Farm Bureau Health Plans has been serving members and protecting

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.600
<v Speaker 1>their health for seventy six years. Learned about our Tennessee

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 1>roots at FBHP dot com. It's Tuesday. We are roughly

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>forty eight hours away from the NFL Draft. With coach

0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Dave McGinnis and Rhetbrian. We call them our Titans Radio

0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Draft duo. I'm Mike Keith, and here we go. Yesterday

0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:50.600
<v Speaker 1>we talked about six questions towards drafting defense. Today six

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:55.960
<v Speaker 1>questions towards drafting offense. Rhetbrian and coach Dave McGinnis have

0:00:56.200 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 1>graded roughly three hundred players for the draft, and so

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:04.440
<v Speaker 1>we start with this. Rhett, what stood out to you

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 1>about this crop of offensive players that will be drafted

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:09.520
<v Speaker 1>this weekend.

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:12.039
<v Speaker 2>The first thing for me is the tight end class.

0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:15.400
<v Speaker 2>It's the richest it's been in probably over ten years.

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:18.319
<v Speaker 2>In our top one hundred, if I'm not mistaken, Mac,

0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 2>we've got six tight ends in the top one hundred picks.

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 2>And it starts with a you know, Michael Mayer from

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame goes through all these guys that we have

0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 2>looked at whether it's Luke Musgrave or Dalton Kincaid from Utah,

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:37.200
<v Speaker 2>there's a wealth of talent there, and when you get

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 2>to the bottom part of that one hundred, there is

0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.919
<v Speaker 2>even I mean, it's just it's rich throughout this whole

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 2>thing of really good talent, and not just straight up

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, big receiver type tight ends. I'm talking about blockers,

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, traditional wide type tight ends in this all

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 2>different shapes and sizes.

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 3>Totally agree. But I want to put the offensive lineman

0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 3>in there too. There's some quality offensive lineman both on

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.680
<v Speaker 3>the edge and in that triangle in this draft, and

0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 3>I think fairly deep into this draft too. So those

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:15.800
<v Speaker 3>two positions, to me are what stood out the most.

0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>All Right, Coach Mack, you lead with question two. Who

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:24.119
<v Speaker 1>is the best offensive player in the twenty twenty three draft?

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 3>John Robinson running back from Texas. Wow, just pure running,

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 3>just pure football player.

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you have a comp I know you hate comps,

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>but many people haven't seen Bjon.

0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.320
<v Speaker 4>Robinson, Ladadian Tomlinson.

0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's pretty good. This guy is just a football player,

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:46.400
<v Speaker 3>really good football player. Texas is really an anomaly for

0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:48.200
<v Speaker 3>a lot of us that watch a lot of college

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:51.919
<v Speaker 3>football because they've got talent that sometimes doesn't perform up

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.959
<v Speaker 3>to the five star that they are coming out. This

0:02:56.840 --> 0:03:00.560
<v Speaker 3>guy's a really talented football player at a position that

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 3>is not as highly valued anymore in today's National Football

0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 3>League as it was in the past, but really good

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 3>player Red Bryant.

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:13.840
<v Speaker 2>It's quarterback Bryce Young for me, and it's just you know,

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.840
<v Speaker 2>you see the body of work he did at Alabama,

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.840
<v Speaker 2>and I don't care what size he is, all of

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.280
<v Speaker 2>those things. When you look at the quarterback and the

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 2>leader that he is and the body of work he's

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.440
<v Speaker 2>put together, he's the top of the list. And I

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 2>think the mainly my my answer and my reason for

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 2>that answer is because it's scific position specific quarterback is

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 2>you know where all this leads with and anticipating he'll be.

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>The first pick taken, all right, taking out b Jeon

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>Robinson and Bryce Jahn, who is the second best offensive

0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:51.000
<v Speaker 1>player in this draft.

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Rerat you can't take out b Jeon Robinson because that's

0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:55.280
<v Speaker 2>who I had as the.

0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Second it is I mean, yes, I have yeah, yeah,

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 1>oppos It didn't work.

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 5>Who wrote this? It worked? I don't know who wrote this.

0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:07.200
<v Speaker 3>No, it's terrible because no it worked because these are

0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 3>two legitimate answers.

0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.840
<v Speaker 5>Well and Bijon just ridiculous.

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 2>He's the most talented running back coming out of college

0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:18.880
<v Speaker 2>since the twenty eighteen draft when we saw Kuon Barkley.

0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 2>This guy's a three down back. I mean tons of

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:27.560
<v Speaker 2>yards after contact and just a natural talent. And honestly,

0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:30.280
<v Speaker 2>I think he is the different is the definition of

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:34.720
<v Speaker 2>what the modern current day NFL running back is, being

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a three down back who can help you out of

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>the backfield.

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.479
<v Speaker 1>There are some people who believe he will fall to

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:43.799
<v Speaker 1>like twenty. There's a lot of speculation right now too

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>that Atlanta might take him at eight. You know, Arthur Smith,

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>you helped to train Arthur Smith as a coach in

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:55.800
<v Speaker 1>this league. Dave McGinnis, does he get past Atlanta? Who'd

0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Arthur take last year?

0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, he took the tidy end right and nobody

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:04.880
<v Speaker 3>thought everybody, but this was an offensive weapon that could

0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 3>be used multiple ways. Arthur uses his players multiple ways.

0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:12.040
<v Speaker 3>This is an Arthur Smith kind.

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:16.680
<v Speaker 5>Of guy, easily. Yeah, you think that happens. RHT.

0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:21.119
<v Speaker 2>If it doesn't happen there, I mean, their speculation about

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 2>it being pick ten with the Philadelphia Eagles which.

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Would make a lot of sense because in terms of

0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:29.799
<v Speaker 1>what his cap cost would be. And remember for first

0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 1>round picks, they're basically slotted in essence two to two

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and a half percent above what they got last year.

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 1>So you can just look at what guy's got last

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:41.480
<v Speaker 1>year in that slot, add two to two and a

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:43.039
<v Speaker 1>half percent and that's going to be it.

0:05:43.320 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 5>And Miles Sanders is in Carolina, well, and that's it.

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, their whole running back room last year cost

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>less than six million dollars in cap cost. If you

0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:56.480
<v Speaker 1>took Bjon Robinson, not only would you upgrade for Jalen Hurts,

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.479
<v Speaker 1>which is crazy to think he would have a better

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:02.160
<v Speaker 1>back play behind him than the group that played with

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:03.200
<v Speaker 1>him last year, but.

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.760
<v Speaker 5>It would actually be cheaper. It's huge. I mean, it

0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:07.640
<v Speaker 5>makes total sense.

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he falls past Philadelphia, especially considering that

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:14.119
<v Speaker 1>Philly also has the thirtieth pick.

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:16.839
<v Speaker 5>Overall, they've got two picks on night one.

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:20.280
<v Speaker 3>Now, see something you bring up, something that really educates

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:25.200
<v Speaker 3>the listeners, the OT people here when you're in draft rooms,

0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 3>not just on draft day. These are the conversations that

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.279
<v Speaker 3>general managers, head coaches and staffs have leading up the

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:36.200
<v Speaker 3>months leading up to this draft, about cap fits, about

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 3>cap fits in the future, and about stacking your roster

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:46.520
<v Speaker 3>position wise so that it starts to interlock with one another.

0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.800
<v Speaker 3>That's a very very valid point, Mike.

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:51.279
<v Speaker 5>We're through two questions.

0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:53.960
<v Speaker 1>We've got four more to go on offense on this

0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 1>edition of the OTP with Dave McGinnis and Rhett Bryan.

0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Hey Titans fans, It's hard to decide what's the best

0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 1>part of a dunkin run. Is it the coffee or

0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>is it the one dollar classic donut or the two

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.880
<v Speaker 1>dollars stuffed bagel minis or the three dollars sausage, egg

0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>and cheese that you can add to that coffee, or

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 1>the fact that you can leave the office. The answer,

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 1>of course is yes, time for a dunkin run. Great

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>deals on food for one, two or three dollars with

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:27.000
<v Speaker 1>a medium or larger coffee. America runs on duncan. Let's

0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 1>get running with question number three. All right, Coach Mack,

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 1>who is the most highly rated offensive player that might

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 1>drop for whatever reason? Jackson Smith and Gieba from Ohio

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 1>State the wide receiver because of his hamstring issues miss

0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:49.360
<v Speaker 1>a significant amount of time last year, the year before

0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 1>and you put the year before tape on, you can

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:54.400
<v Speaker 1>see what this guy is. This guy is going to

0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>be a starting receiver in the National Football League as

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 1>soon as he steps on sampus.

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 4>But when you start.

0:08:02.160 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 3>Looking at soft tissue issues that have kept a player

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 3>out that long, it's gonna make it's gonna make some

0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:12.440
<v Speaker 3>people pause. And again it's it's per draft room and

0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 3>it's per organization what you are willing to risk.

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 1>But that's the guy to me, Coach Mack says, Jackson

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Smith and Jigba.

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 5>What does Rhet Bryan say?

0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean mine was b Jon Robinson just because

0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:27.640
<v Speaker 2>of the position that he plays at, and you know

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>how the running back is somewhat devalued in this and

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>we talked about him not falling past ten to the

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.600
<v Speaker 2>Philadelphia Eagles, but I mean, if they don't take him

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.079
<v Speaker 2>there and they take a defensive prospect, there's a chance

0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 2>he falls pretty far, not out of the first round.

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 2>But at eighteen to the Detroit Lions is another place

0:08:48.280 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 2>for him because they've they've always been looking for a

0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.800
<v Speaker 2>running back since Barry Sanders hung them up. And then

0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 2>at twenty six for the Cowboys and at twenty seven

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.920
<v Speaker 2>for the Buffalo Bills are also spots he could fall to.

0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:01.839
<v Speaker 1>I think Detroit is really interesting because they have six

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:05.800
<v Speaker 1>and eighteen, and so they can get in a situation.

0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I think they stick and pick at six because I

0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:10.320
<v Speaker 1>think they're going to want to get a great player.

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>But if he he being Bjon Robinson, doesn't go at ten,

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.199
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if Detroit is not the team that calls

0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Tennessee and says we want a trade to eleven to

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:26.200
<v Speaker 1>go up and get Bjon Robinson. Because they have five

0:09:26.280 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 1>picks in the first three rounds. I mean, they've got

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.920
<v Speaker 1>a lot of depth. They're certainly a much better team.

0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:35.439
<v Speaker 1>Adding weapons right now for that team where they are

0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:37.640
<v Speaker 1>in their development would make a ton of sense.

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 3>And remember this, just on your scenario, Brad Holmes and

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 3>Ran Carthon work together in the same building for five years,

0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:49.680
<v Speaker 3>very closely on putting the Rams team together, all right,

0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:50.200
<v Speaker 3>you know?

0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 4>And so.

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Who knows watch Detroit? Yeah, I don't listen. I don't

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 2>think they're in love with DeAndre Swift. And how many

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.320
<v Speaker 2>picks have we seen them over the years row at

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:03.360
<v Speaker 2>a running back position to try to come up with

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.959
<v Speaker 2>an answer. Now they've done more with wide receiver than anything.

0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:08.040
<v Speaker 1>But they have a pretty good history with a couple

0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>of running backs throughout their time. I mean, especially Barry Sanders,

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 1>understanding what a difference a guy like that could make

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:21.480
<v Speaker 1>to golf or whatever they're going to do going forward.

0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean they've they've hit on some receivers, certainly haven't

0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:28.240
<v Speaker 1>quite hit where they want to on tight ends, but

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>they may be able to get a guy like that

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.720
<v Speaker 1>going forward. We'll see. That's pretty good ball club. They

0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.439
<v Speaker 1>went nine to eight, and you have to feel like

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:38.520
<v Speaker 1>the NFC North is wide open. So that's why I say,

0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:41.839
<v Speaker 1>I think you've got to watch them. I think again,

0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:44.959
<v Speaker 1>I think they stick and pick at six and then

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:48.520
<v Speaker 1>I think they use eighteen to potentially leverage back up.

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:51.679
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think discounting what they've done in the past, right,

0:10:52.320 --> 0:10:55.080
<v Speaker 3>you've got a second year GM and you've got a

0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:57.680
<v Speaker 3>first year GM that. Believe me, I was in the

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 3>same building with them for five years doing this right here.

0:11:01.679 --> 0:11:06.120
<v Speaker 3>They work very very closely together along with Ray Agnew,

0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:09.720
<v Speaker 3>who is the assistant GM for Brad Now in Detroit.

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 3>So these guys understand one another and their draft philosophy

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:16.360
<v Speaker 3>very well.

0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:18.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, So let me go through that before I

0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.640
<v Speaker 1>ask the next question on our list about offense. So

0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 1>those guys have that kind of relationship. Absolutely, Again, you

0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 1>work with people who you have those relationships with, understanding

0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:33.760
<v Speaker 1>that you might have to set something up before it

0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 1>is that something they would say, listen, if our player

0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:41.400
<v Speaker 1>is there at eleven, here's what we're willing to offer you,

0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>so you could make the call that quickly to the

0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:45.640
<v Speaker 1>league and get the trade in.

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:46.360
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely.

0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:49.560
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I've the terms may be lined up theoretically.

0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:51.880
<v Speaker 3>No, No, yeah, I mean, but I'm just saying the

0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 3>only reason I can say this.

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:54.960
<v Speaker 4>With some pretty good clarity.

0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.960
<v Speaker 3>I've done it, right, I've done it, and that's exactly

0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.240
<v Speaker 3>what you do do. I mean, we did it with

0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 3>the Titans with Jared Goff, right, So I mean that's

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.840
<v Speaker 3>just the most recent, you know, that I've been involved in,

0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 3>and there's been several others.

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 5>All right.

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Question four, what is the best case scenario for an

0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:20.880
<v Speaker 1>offensive player for the Titans at number eleven?

0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:26.319
<v Speaker 2>Read for me, naturally, if one of those quarterbacks are

0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:30.440
<v Speaker 2>sitting there for multiple reasons, one, if it's one they

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:33.120
<v Speaker 2>like and want to take, okay go, and if not,

0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.400
<v Speaker 2>maybe someone calls Ran Carthon and you get some more

0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 2>capital that you need. That's the first thing. Second thing,

0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:43.120
<v Speaker 2>if one of these top tackles, like if Peter Scronsky

0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>is sitting there, go same thing with Broderick Jones. I mean,

0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:51.280
<v Speaker 2>I think you know there's a chance you might have

0:12:51.320 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 2>one of those sitting there. You could have the pick

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 2>of the litter with these tight ends that we started

0:12:55.480 --> 0:13:01.439
<v Speaker 2>this podcast with. But a top tackle maybe quarterback for

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 2>for those reasons.

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:07.120
<v Speaker 3>Paris Johnson, junior, Okay Mohio State. Uh, that to me

0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:08.000
<v Speaker 3>is the best scenario.

0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:11.600
<v Speaker 1>He's a big tackle. You see, he's a big athletic tackle.

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:15.280
<v Speaker 1>People saw the footwork at the Ohio State workout and

0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:18.280
<v Speaker 1>that was shown over and over and over again on Twitter,

0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:22.320
<v Speaker 1>and people are like, what's this. I mean, he's he's

0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:23.040
<v Speaker 1>pretty special.

0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:23.800
<v Speaker 4>It's a dude.

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Let me go back to something Red mentioned tight ends

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:31.120
<v Speaker 1>and I want to see because it feels like you've

0:13:31.120 --> 0:13:33.000
<v Speaker 1>alluded to this, but I want to I want to

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 1>sort of dive down on a little bit more. Are

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:41.960
<v Speaker 1>there more elite tight ends very safely in your top

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:45.199
<v Speaker 1>one hundred than there are elite wide receiver prospects.

0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I'll give you the tight ends that we've got.

0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 3>We keep talking about this mythical top one hundred. I mean,

0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:53.160
<v Speaker 3>here's what Ret and I came up with. Michael Mayer

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:57.240
<v Speaker 3>from Notre Dame, Dalton ken Kid from Utah, Luke Musgrave

0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.400
<v Speaker 3>from Oregon State, who we were we're gonna. Can I

0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 3>just say I love him? Yeah, And that's why I

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:05.240
<v Speaker 3>looked at you, Uh, Darnell. I can tell who you

0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:06.199
<v Speaker 3>like when we go to see you.

0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:10.240
<v Speaker 5>When I hugged him and he didn't know it.

0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:15.320
<v Speaker 3>Uncomfortable when you know, when you yelled at me across

0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 3>the ballrooms.

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:17.640
<v Speaker 4>Had come over here and talk to this guy, cause.

0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:19.720
<v Speaker 5>I did want you to meet Yeah, because he because

0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:20.240
<v Speaker 5>you know his.

0:14:20.280 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 4>Uncle I do.

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:25.640
<v Speaker 3>I didn't hire his uncle, uh Darnell, not for any

0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:30.160
<v Speaker 3>bad reasons. Darnell Washington from Georgia, Tucker Craft from South

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:33.400
<v Speaker 3>Dakota State, Sam Laporta from Iowa. I'm in the top

0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:37.480
<v Speaker 3>one hundred now, Luke Schoonmaker from Michigan, and then right

0:14:37.560 --> 0:14:40.560
<v Speaker 3>on the fringe of this, Brenton Strange from Penn State.

0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 1>So let me see if I feel this right. If

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:46.320
<v Speaker 1>if you're if you're sticking with your board and you're

0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>talking about an elite player, you could theoretically take a

0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 1>tight end over a wide receiver, you know, in terms

0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:59.760
<v Speaker 1>of first, second round, whatever, with the thought process being

0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>this is just a more elite player who stays on.

0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:03.560
<v Speaker 5>The field more.

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:07.400
<v Speaker 2>I think so, yes, yeah, And again at eleven, which

0:15:07.440 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 2>is what the question is. I believe you'd have your

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 2>pick of the litter there of the Titans.

0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.880
<v Speaker 5>Would one be worth that? Mmmm? Okay?

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.600
<v Speaker 1>All right, all right, so I'm gonna move on. I know,

0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm just asking questions. That's all I'm doing. We're on

0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:25.840
<v Speaker 1>the OTP. This is how we're doing it, all right.

0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Question five is this Nicholas Pettifrere was an incredible draft

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:35.400
<v Speaker 1>bargain for the Tennessee Titans early in the third round

0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:40.600
<v Speaker 1>last year. Each of you give me two offensive prospects

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>that could be there for the Titans at number seventy two,

0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.280
<v Speaker 1>the Titans picking the third round that would have the

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.640
<v Speaker 1>same type of value as Patifree.

0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:51.800
<v Speaker 5>We'll go Sam.

0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:54.120
<v Speaker 3>Laporta, the tight end from Iowa that I just said,

0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 3>and then go to the receiver route Marvin Mahams Junior

0:15:57.040 --> 0:16:00.480
<v Speaker 3>from Oklahoma. This is a speed guy. This is a

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:04.720
<v Speaker 3>vertical speed fast, fast, fast dude. It's got a pretty

0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 3>nice catch radius.

0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:06.240
<v Speaker 5>Even.

0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:10.280
<v Speaker 3>The thing about this wide receiver group, Mike, for our listeners,

0:16:10.320 --> 0:16:12.920
<v Speaker 3>I know you know this because you study this hard too.

0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:16.400
<v Speaker 3>It's completely different than it has been in the last

0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 3>several years. There's not that many six two, six, three

0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:24.160
<v Speaker 3>sixty four big long receivers. Now they're the five to nine,

0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 3>five ten speed guys. Great short area of quickness guys.

0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 3>This is one of them.

0:16:31.920 --> 0:16:34.800
<v Speaker 2>For me, Mike, I'm gonna go receiver and tight end

0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:36.840
<v Speaker 2>on mine, and I'm going to go with one of

0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:39.160
<v Speaker 2>the bigger receivers in this that would be a value

0:16:39.320 --> 0:16:41.720
<v Speaker 2>in day two, and that's Jonathan Mingo from Old Miss.

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 2>He's six two plus two twenty five seventeen yards per

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 2>catch average in his career at Old Miss. I think

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:50.840
<v Speaker 2>that's somebody that can help the Titans. And then the

0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:53.960
<v Speaker 2>last tight end that Mack mentioned in our top one hundred,

0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Luke Schoonmaker from Michigan.

0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:56.400
<v Speaker 5>What do you like about him?

0:16:56.680 --> 0:17:00.840
<v Speaker 2>He is, First of all, he is quick than he

0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:02.920
<v Speaker 2>appears to be in this all right. First of all,

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.879
<v Speaker 2>he's six five two fifty one arms thirty two and

0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:09.320
<v Speaker 2>seven eights inches, hands, nine wings seventy eight and an

0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:11.679
<v Speaker 2>eighth four to six three in the forties. What he

0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:13.520
<v Speaker 2>did the combine but he had a thirty three and

0:17:13.520 --> 0:17:15.679
<v Speaker 2>a half inch forvert had a ten to seven broad

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:20.200
<v Speaker 2>and you see him. He's he can block. But he

0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:22.920
<v Speaker 2>also was used as a red zone threat from Michigan

0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:26.960
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty two. Average ten yards per catch in

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.879
<v Speaker 2>his last two years at Michigan and six touchdowns in

0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:33.600
<v Speaker 2>there and not a lot of drops. He's just a

0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:35.920
<v Speaker 2>guy I think that you could get in probably round

<v Speaker 1>all right, are we ready for question six?

0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:09.480
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely? I love this these.

0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:15.120
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about offense. Yesterday was defense, Today is offense Day.

0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:15.400
<v Speaker 5>Three.

0:18:15.640 --> 0:18:19.560
<v Speaker 1>Give me an offensive position group where the Titans can

0:18:19.600 --> 0:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>find great value on Saturday goes First.

0:18:24.320 --> 0:18:28.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to start with the interior offensive line. There

0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:31.240
<v Speaker 2>are some guards and centers, like Mac has said when

0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:35.480
<v Speaker 2>we started this OTP, the triangle players, they run pretty

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 2>deep in this. And I'm going to start with a

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:41.000
<v Speaker 2>couple of guys, one of which is a Michigan Wolverine

0:18:41.040 --> 0:18:44.000
<v Speaker 2>olu Ola with Teamy. We saw him at the Senior Bowl.

0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:46.680
<v Speaker 2>He's a Virginia transfer six two and a half three

0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 2>oh nine. He was the Remington and the Outland Trophy

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.600
<v Speaker 2>winner in his one year at Michigan. And it's a

0:18:56.640 --> 0:19:00.880
<v Speaker 2>guy that played I think most of his games at

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:03.800
<v Speaker 2>right guard, but had played some games at tackle as well,

0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:07.160
<v Speaker 2>so there's some versatility there. And then there's another one

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:10.239
<v Speaker 2>that I really like from LSU, Anthony Bradford. He had

0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:12.679
<v Speaker 2>twelve games at right guard, five at left tackle. He's

0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:16.960
<v Speaker 2>six four three thirty two and as coach Mack would say,

0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:20.480
<v Speaker 2>he's not an empty chairs. He's certainly somebody that I

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:23.119
<v Speaker 2>would look for as a late round pick in this.

0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 2>And then I'm going to go also wide receiver at

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Perry from wake Forest six three and a half one

0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:31.880
<v Speaker 2>ninety eight twenty four hundred plus yards in his last

0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:36.359
<v Speaker 2>two years at Wake Forest, eleven touchdowns, good long speed

0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.439
<v Speaker 2>on vertical routes. Has had some dropsy issues, but I

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.720
<v Speaker 2>think that's something that Rob Moore could work with him on.

0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:45.560
<v Speaker 2>There's a wealth of stuff in the back end of

0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:46.040
<v Speaker 2>this draft.

0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 3>On offense, Okay Brett gave us three, I'll give you four.

0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:55.040
<v Speaker 3>Wide receiver, Let's stay there. Xavier Hutchison from Iowa State,

0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:58.280
<v Speaker 3>got some length to him, got a little bit of speed,

0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 3>Pretty crafty receiver. Offensive tackle Nick Salaverari from Old Dominion.

0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:07.200
<v Speaker 3>This is a big athletic dude, raw, but you're talking

0:20:07.240 --> 0:20:09.680
<v Speaker 3>about day three here. Can he also play guard? I

0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:13.800
<v Speaker 3>possibly could. He's a big dude. Mike tight end I

0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 3>got loos Luke schoon Maker right here. Luke Schoonmaker to

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 3>me is a guy that can do a pretty good

0:20:19.840 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 3>of both, just as Rhett gave a great description of him.

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.280
<v Speaker 3>But his blocking is better than some of these guys

0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:28.240
<v Speaker 3>that will probably go before him, just because that's the

0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:31.080
<v Speaker 3>way it works right now with people you know using

0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:35.280
<v Speaker 3>tight ends to be sometimes primary receivers in their offense.

0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:36.160
<v Speaker 5>And then my.

0:20:36.160 --> 0:20:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Offensive guard that I've got written right here. And Rett

0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:40.199
<v Speaker 3>and I don't talk before this. We talk a lot

0:20:40.240 --> 0:20:42.000
<v Speaker 3>in the last three months. We're sick of each other.

0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:45.840
<v Speaker 3>But is Anthony Bradford the guard from LSU both like yes,

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:47.879
<v Speaker 3>you both like schoonmaker?

0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:48.560
<v Speaker 4>Yes?

0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:49.600
<v Speaker 5>Interesting?

0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:52.399
<v Speaker 1>All right, So let me quiz you on one ratt

0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:55.600
<v Speaker 1>another guy that I really like at the Senior Bowl

0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and think he's a good player also, so I'm play

0:20:57.800 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>in the Southeastern Conference. Does a Meal Echi center guard

0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>out of Alabama have a chance to fall into Day

0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 1>three or do you think he goes the first two days? No?

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:09.320
<v Speaker 2>I think he would be a Day three candidate in this.

0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:12.399
<v Speaker 2>And you know, we heard the story from Jim Naggy,

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:16.359
<v Speaker 2>the senior director of the Senior Bowl, you know, in

0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:21.120
<v Speaker 2>that you know, Nick Saban calls him and says, hey,

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:23.880
<v Speaker 2>give him a shot at center, right, he can do this.

0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:26.320
<v Speaker 2>So it's a versatile guy in him. Man, he's a

0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:30.320
<v Speaker 2>big dude, big anchor who played in a massive, you

0:21:30.320 --> 0:21:34.000
<v Speaker 2>know program in the Southeastern Conference. Yeah, he absolutely somebody

0:21:34.000 --> 0:21:36.680
<v Speaker 2>that would be of value for someone in Day three.

0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 3>Emiliek you are we have him around the one twenty range,

0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:41.000
<v Speaker 3>so that's fourth round.

0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:44.080
<v Speaker 4>You know kind of at the top of that fourth round.

0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:49.880
<v Speaker 3>He's six two three fourteen and he is versatile because

0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:51.840
<v Speaker 3>he proved that he could snap the ball and still

0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:53.640
<v Speaker 3>get to his blocks at the Senior Bowl.

0:21:53.680 --> 0:21:54.920
<v Speaker 5>Another interior alignment.

0:21:54.960 --> 0:21:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm interested in Jerome Carvin from Tennessee played sixty games there.

0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Don't know if I don't know if he's a drafted player.

0:22:02.880 --> 0:22:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if he goes later than that, But

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.320
<v Speaker 1>he's that type of guy you're trying to find who

0:22:08.760 --> 0:22:11.679
<v Speaker 1>can make your practice squad, can eventually make your roster,

0:22:11.840 --> 0:22:15.159
<v Speaker 1>can play more than one position. You're always looking for

0:22:15.240 --> 0:22:19.760
<v Speaker 1>those O linemen who always seems always seem to drop

0:22:20.280 --> 0:22:23.520
<v Speaker 1>because there are more of them and because teams sort

0:22:23.520 --> 0:22:26.600
<v Speaker 1>of get fixated on. Oh I can't believe this edge

0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:29.280
<v Speaker 1>rusher's still here. Oh, I can't believe this safety is

0:22:29.320 --> 0:22:29.840
<v Speaker 1>still here.

0:22:30.200 --> 0:22:34.720
<v Speaker 4>Well, we're doing the draft with a guy right here

0:22:34.760 --> 0:22:37.439
<v Speaker 4>that that happened with. Who's that Ramone Foster?

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 5>Yes, that's right.

0:22:39.119 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Ramone Foster wasn't undrafted and only spent eleven years with

0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 1>the Pittsburgh Steelers.

0:22:43.840 --> 0:22:45.359
<v Speaker 5>So there we go. That was pretty good.

0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:48.720
