Speaker 1: Welcome in to jag Zam. I'm Kayannie Stevens. Are in
Speaker 1: the month of April. Now free agency is behind us,
Speaker 1: so now we're looking ahead to the twenty twenty four
Speaker 1: NFL Draft. Now, Brian Sexson is off today John Oser
Speaker 1: is back with me here in studio. We're going to
Speaker 1: do a deep dive as we start looking into potential
Speaker 1: draft picks who may be coming to town and positions
Speaker 1: of interest. Our big thing, number one is twenty three days,
Speaker 1: because there's twenty three days until the first day of
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft. Now, a lot of US preps started
Speaker 1: months and months ago, but John, they're still looking into
Speaker 1: things right now. Talking to people. How much of this
Speaker 1: is set in stone at this point or is they're
Speaker 1: still room to move about who they're looking at.
Speaker 2: Well, I think their thoughts and their research on guys
Speaker 2: is mostly set in stone. You're doing sort of punch
Speaker 2: out work now, if you will, still setting the board.
Speaker 2: Once they set that board, it's pretty much set in stone.
Speaker 2: I think that's a couple of weeks down the road.
Speaker 2: The work actually started for a lot of these guys
Speaker 2: year year and a half ago. The area of scouts
Speaker 2: actually are already looking ahead to next year's draft, most
Speaker 2: likely with the setting of the board being done by
Speaker 2: sort of the upper level guys, Trent Balke and his posse,
Speaker 2: if you will.
Speaker 1: The posse is getting all in on the big board,
Speaker 1: so we'll have more on that as the week's come along,
Speaker 1: and we'll talk a little bit more about prospects later
Speaker 1: in the show. We do want to talk about our
Speaker 1: second big thing, though, which is an extension for Foya
Speaker 1: Lewis and the linebacker captain of this team. Last year
Speaker 1: was on the final year of a three year deal,
Speaker 1: but now we've seen a contract extension for him. John
Speaker 1: This was something we weren't really sure he had a
Speaker 1: big cap number this year, but now he's going to
Speaker 1: be around for a bit longer.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's credit to him.
Speaker 2: A couple of free agents from the twenty twenty one
Speaker 2: class seman line to do this.
Speaker 3: Christian kirk Is the other guy comes in mind. This
Speaker 3: might be down the road.
Speaker 2: Usually players who sign big free agent contracts are two
Speaker 2: or three year players and don't really become part of
Speaker 2: your core. The Air exceptions to that, but that's sort
Speaker 2: of the norm. Foya Lucan led the league and tackled
Speaker 2: his first year with the Jags twenty twenty two, came
Speaker 2: close again last year, solid player, became a little more
Speaker 2: of a turnover guy last year. So he's locked up.
Speaker 2: He's part of the core of this team. And credit
Speaker 2: to him again, because that doesn't always happen with second
Speaker 2: contract free agents on new teams. He's now a Jaguar,
Speaker 2: I want to say for life, but for the long
Speaker 2: term doesn't always happen.
Speaker 1: Is this extension due to just what the performances we've
Speaker 1: seen on the field, or is it a bit of
Speaker 1: an indictment against those two other guys that they drafted
Speaker 1: just a year ago.
Speaker 3: I don't think as much to do with Devin Lloyd.
Speaker 3: Perhaps Chad Muma. They may have.
Speaker 2: Looked at him as a possible replacement when they drafted
Speaker 2: him in twenty twenty two. I think the year was
Speaker 2: it all runs together. At my age, Ventrel Miller last
Speaker 2: year when he was drafted seemed like a guy who
Speaker 2: might be an inside back or starter at some point.
Speaker 3: And totally get on the field.
Speaker 2: Last year at all, he was hurt, so I think
Speaker 2: the circumstance and injury maybe more than an indictment.
Speaker 1: All right, freeze up some money and he'll be here
Speaker 1: to stay. So that's good leadership to have on this team.
Speaker 1: But speaking of that extension, there's another extension or new
Speaker 1: contract that hasn't gotten done a waiting game. We're still
Speaker 1: waiting on Josh Allen. And now with those twenty three
Speaker 1: days until the draft, John, we've talked about hoping this
Speaker 1: deal gets done before the draft. Is that still the
Speaker 1: plan or is this going to be something that dragged
Speaker 1: out even further.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not sure there's that much.
Speaker 2: You know, My experience with these is usually deadlines create deals.
Speaker 2: I don't know that there's that much of a deadline
Speaker 2: before the draft because they've already gotten through the league year,
Speaker 2: so they're cap they're not trying to get under anything
Speaker 2: in any sort of deadline like that. The deadline or
Speaker 2: the pressure points might be more when they want to
Speaker 2: sign the rookie class or get other deals done that
Speaker 2: might prompt Josh. I don't know that the April twenty
Speaker 2: fifth start of the draft is a magic deadline beyond
Speaker 2: the fact that I think they'd like to get this
Speaker 2: done and get it in order and sort of know
Speaker 2: what these numbers are gonna look like. To me, the
Speaker 2: two numbers that might matter the most for the next
Speaker 2: five years, Josh's contract, in Trevor's contract. When it happens,
Speaker 2: those will sort of set the template to the tent poles,
Speaker 2: if you will.
Speaker 3: Everything else we worked around.
Speaker 2: That when they're that big, and that perhaps even unusual
Speaker 2: trying to get certain numbers in certain years. Sometimes you
Speaker 2: want to get that done before you start doing other things.
Speaker 2: So I think it gets done before July fifteenth. Don't
Speaker 2: really have a feel for any date beyond that with
Speaker 2: Josh Allen.
Speaker 1: All right, Josh Allen Contract Watch continues. We'll keep you
Speaker 1: an eye on that, keep you posted.
Speaker 3: Of course.
Speaker 1: Coming up after the break, we're going to look at
Speaker 1: some of the cornerback prospects for this year's draft and
Speaker 1: who the Jags might be targeting.
Speaker 3: Move the Freight, Move the Freight.
Speaker 1: Magellan Transportation voted coolest office space in Jacksonville. You can
Speaker 1: apply online at www. Dot Magellan Logistics dot com. Welcome
Speaker 1: back to jag zam here in the Hyundai studios, Kan
Speaker 1: Nannie Stevens, Brian Sexton not with us. We'll be back
Speaker 1: next week. But John Osier is back in studio, and
Speaker 1: that's really all we need this time in the year, John,
Speaker 1: thank you for joining us.
Speaker 3: No problem, it.
Speaker 1: Is sor all you need anyway, it's all we need.
Speaker 1: Were worth.
Speaker 3: Let's talk draft.
Speaker 1: Let's talk draft because we're gonna dive into this for
Speaker 1: the next few weeks pretty much as we all try
Speaker 1: to guess what's gonna go down and probably get it very,
Speaker 1: very wrong. But we're gonna start with cornerbacks because that's
Speaker 1: a position we've talked about obviously, that's a skill position
Speaker 1: that you really only see maybe you know, a starting
Speaker 1: cornerback in the first round less she gets super lucky
Speaker 1: after the fact. So we're gonna look at some of
Speaker 1: the picks that we have not necessarily mocked to us,
Speaker 1: but you know, just kind of the top availability in
Speaker 1: the cornerback class this year.
Speaker 2: So well, first of all, on corner I think it's
Speaker 2: if you had to pick a position right now that
Speaker 2: makes the most sense for him, it feels like corners.
Speaker 2: Yet I know O lot of people are saying wide receiver,
Speaker 2: the people are saying offensive line corner.
Speaker 3: To me, it still feels like.
Speaker 2: They might not only take one in the first round,
Speaker 2: but might take one somewhere again.
Speaker 3: By Dave, I mean not.
Speaker 2: I say by day four, by round four, it feels
Speaker 2: like the biggest need, and it is a spot historically.
Speaker 2: The good news on that to me, sometimes offensive linemen
Speaker 2: can need more time, their certain positions need more time.
Speaker 2: Corner is a position where guys can often come in
Speaker 2: and be who they are right away.
Speaker 3: So it's good.
Speaker 1: It's a young man's position, right as we always say,
Speaker 1: so it's good to get some young blood in here.
Speaker 1: Quinyan and Mitchell is the guy from Toledo, which you
Speaker 1: don't se see a lot of Matt Conference guys necessarily,
Speaker 1: but that's someone where we're looking at. I don't know,
Speaker 1: fall to seventeen, it might be something where you needed
Speaker 1: to trade up. But he's kind of the CB one,
Speaker 1: if you will, starting out of this class.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and came out of nowhere a little bit, has
Speaker 2: had a really good off season. He's a guy off
Speaker 2: So when you go to Toledo, people come in with questions.
Speaker 2: Everything you hear is that he's answered all those questions.
Speaker 2: In terms of the draft, seems right now like it
Speaker 2: might be a little surprising if he's there at seventeen.
Speaker 2: You sort of mentioned during the break trading up. Boy,
Speaker 2: I'd be surprised. If they trade up for a corner,
Speaker 2: mainly because there's so many sitting there sort of in
Speaker 2: the sweet in the sweet spot of number seventeen, So
Speaker 2: I'm not sure there would be a trade up, But
Speaker 2: if you love a guy.
Speaker 3: Go get him fair.
Speaker 1: Cooper de John's probably one of the more versatile corners
Speaker 1: coming out of Iowa. He's someone that I think people
Speaker 1: think they could probably use in a multitude of ways.
Speaker 1: Maybe safety as well, but just that versatility. That's something
Speaker 1: we know. Trent Bulke likes a versatile player. But is
Speaker 1: that someone that you could see in the system or
Speaker 1: do you think maybe not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Caitlin Clark's off the board here, so.
Speaker 1: She's too expensive.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, for what they need, versatility makes sense.
Speaker 2: The interesting at corner, you feel like Darby, who they've signed,
Speaker 2: Ronald Darby and Tyson Campbell are probably their outside corners
Speaker 2: next year, possibly wanting to play inside, but it.
Speaker 3: Would be interesting.
Speaker 2: The challenge for them, I think is trying to get
Speaker 2: a guy who can be a long term outside corner
Speaker 2: and play Nickel early. Cooper Jjohn with his versatility, could
Speaker 2: fit that. Again, it sort of feels like you may
Speaker 2: have to go up and get him at this point.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 3: He makes sense.
Speaker 2: Don't know that he'd be available when they're picking, but
Speaker 2: I think that versatility makes a lot of sense for him.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go over those two Alabama guys, Terry Arnold,
Speaker 1: Koley McKinstry one of those getting mocked to the Jaguars
Speaker 1: quently that you've been seeing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Terry and Arnold has been mocked a lot. Kool
Speaker 2: Aid I don't know as much about. I haven't studied
Speaker 2: him quite as much. Terry and Arnold seems like the
Speaker 2: guy right now that people think will be available with
Speaker 2: fill in need. You know, there are people It's an
Speaker 2: interesting draft class for many positions with cornerby and one
Speaker 2: of them where there's so many guys that it might
Speaker 2: be a matter of how you think a guy fits
Speaker 2: rather than oh they didn't go get the quote best guy. Well,
Speaker 2: there is a school thought here you can go get
Speaker 2: the best guy for what you need. With Terran and
Speaker 2: other players, there are people who think he might be
Speaker 2: the best corner in the draft, even though he's only
Speaker 2: ranked third or fourth right now. So it sounds like
Speaker 2: he's a fit. It sounds like he's a guy who
Speaker 2: would work him and be available. I've probably seen him
Speaker 2: mocked more to the Jaguars than any other player.
Speaker 3: Maybe in the last two or three weeks, which means
Speaker 3: means nothing.
Speaker 1: That means we're not going to get him.
Speaker 3: That's probably means nothing, probably what it means.
Speaker 1: And then finally we'll look at Clemson product Nate Wiggins.
Speaker 1: We've seen him kind of move up and down a
Speaker 1: little bit. Is he someone that would fit the system
Speaker 1: as well?
Speaker 3: Or well, good, good, good player.
Speaker 2: Uh again, I have not sit here and poured through
Speaker 2: tape on on Nate Wiggins or any of these guys,
Speaker 2: but from what you hear, the size you even see
Speaker 2: right there.
Speaker 3: I never want to call an NFL player frail because
Speaker 3: it's not that, but his size and frame.
Speaker 2: Would it's going to scare some teams, and you wonder
Speaker 2: if he fits When this team is getting ready to
Speaker 2: move to an aggressive man, demand guard the short pass,
Speaker 2: be physical, you wonder if that fits what they.
Speaker 3: Want to do.
Speaker 2: If he's the guy there, there's fit. And then there's
Speaker 2: also the case of well, you don't want to pay
Speaker 2: us on good players. So not ruling Nate Wagans out,
Speaker 2: but the frame is what you hear pundits talk about
Speaker 2: with Nate Wagans and the Jags.
Speaker 1: Very good. Those are the top five we've got for cornerbacks.
Speaker 1: We're going to be looking at different positions the next
Speaker 1: coming weeks. We'll look at a different position group and
Speaker 1: what we think the Jags are going to be looking
Speaker 1: at and the top prospects for that.
Speaker 3: Stay with us though.
Speaker 1: We've got Ozone mail bag questions for you after the break.
Speaker 1: Jaguars fans guro up at fanatics dot com with all
Speaker 1: the latest styles. Shop now and get today's special offer.
Speaker 1: Fanatics dot Com officially licensed everything. Please God, welcome back
Speaker 1: to jag Zam. Ozone is back with us, so we're celebrating.
Speaker 1: We're do some ozone mail bag questions because John we
Speaker 1: need your answers on all of the things.
Speaker 3: Well, yes, uh, I guess you did, Yes we do.
Speaker 1: Our first question is about the offensive line. There's been
Speaker 1: a lot of changes to that from what we've seen
Speaker 1: so far. So Daniel from Johnston, Iowa wants to know
Speaker 1: a lot of iowant today. Are you satisfied with the
Speaker 1: efforts made on fixing the O line thus far? He says,
Speaker 1: not convinced yet.
Speaker 2: I'm not satisfied or unsatisfied. I guess I wasn't sure
Speaker 2: what to expect. I thought that going into the off season,
Speaker 2: I thought that they might move on from Brandon Sheriff.
Speaker 2: He his salary cap. That's the one thing that didn't
Speaker 2: happen that I thought might happen. So I don't know
Speaker 2: necessarily that they think they should have because he's a
Speaker 2: good veteran player. I don't know that he's in the
Speaker 2: prime of his career anymore, but he certainly you can
Speaker 2: get by with good veteran guards you know how to play,
Speaker 2: and he does. Beyond that, they resigned, I mean, they
Speaker 2: signed Mitch Morse, they resigned Ezra Cleveland. And I think
Speaker 2: the important thing to remember about Ezra Cleveland. Everybody wants
Speaker 2: to look at at what the Jaguars didn't say, Well,
Speaker 2: they only did one thing.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know that we actually saw.
Speaker 2: What Ezra Cleveland can really bring. Last year he played
Speaker 2: five games. It never felt like he got in and
Speaker 2: got into a rhythm. He was in and out of
Speaker 2: the lineup.
Speaker 3: Not his fault at all.
Speaker 2: So there thought clearly is Cameraroms can go into his
Speaker 2: eighth year.
Speaker 3: Brandon Sheriff going.
Speaker 2: Into his tenth, Mitch Morse going into his tenth, and.
Speaker 3: Ezra Cleveland I believe going into his fifth or sixth.
Speaker 2: Fifth, maybe well the left side of that or the
Speaker 2: first three guys I mentioned. That's a little old for
Speaker 2: my taste, but they clearly look at it and say
Speaker 2: we can get there. This is a veteran line who
Speaker 2: knows what they're doing. They believe that there will be
Speaker 2: continuity there. Age makes me wonder about the continuity. I
Speaker 2: think that's the risk in the continuity card. But you
Speaker 2: have to believe in something right now. They believe in
Speaker 2: continuity veteran that this bunch can go do it. To
Speaker 2: their credit, they also have some depth. They have Walker
Speaker 2: Little there. You believe they'll have Luke Fortner. I also
Speaker 2: think that somewhere on the first two days of the draft,
Speaker 2: I think you could see this position to dress to
Speaker 2: get younger because Cam and Walker Little both in their
Speaker 2: last year of their contract, and with Morrison Sheriff being
Speaker 2: tenth of your guys, they need to draft and get
Speaker 2: younger behind this now. But if they say healthy, it
Speaker 2: can work. I think that's the big key. Can an
Speaker 2: older line that hasn't been healthy in the last couple
Speaker 2: of seasons, stay healthy. To me, that's the storyline to
Speaker 2: wash the offensive.
Speaker 1: Line, health will certainly be an issue. We saw a
Speaker 1: lot of different lineups last year, so hopefully we can
Speaker 1: avoid that this season. Second question we have for you
Speaker 1: here today is going to be about two of the
Speaker 1: defensive backs because we were just talking about cornerback. But
Speaker 1: would you offer an extension to safety Andre Cisco or
Speaker 1: cornerback Tyson Campbell this offseason to void an inflated number
Speaker 1: after a possible Pro Bowl season this year?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think you can. I like both guys
Speaker 3: a lot.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm pulling form to be core NFL players
Speaker 2: that you pay. I think they have the potential to
Speaker 2: be that, because I am I. I think they have
Speaker 2: the potential to be that. I don't know that they've
Speaker 2: shown enough of that yet to go sign them to
Speaker 2: long term deals.
Speaker 1: And they may not want that yet because you want
Speaker 1: to prove yourself. You want to have a great season
Speaker 1: before you sign that long term deal, because you might
Speaker 1: not get that money that you're expecting. I think if
Speaker 1: they were to give them an offer, it's probably not
Speaker 1: going to be the money of them would want right now.
Speaker 3: And that's what they ran into.
Speaker 2: If you remember with Josh Allen last year, Yep, Jaywarsy've
Speaker 2: got a lot of criticism for not signing Josh to
Speaker 2: a long term deal when the bargain was there, when
Speaker 2: you or when it was affordable. I never got the
Speaker 2: idea at all ever, talking to Josh that he thought
Speaker 2: that he had earned the long term deal that he
Speaker 2: believed he was capable of, if that makes sense.
Speaker 3: I believe he knew he.
Speaker 2: Was worth it, but also from a league point of view,
Speaker 2: he hadn't shown that, so there was no way that
Speaker 2: was going to get done before this offseason. I kind
Speaker 2: of feel like to a lesser degree, Cisco and Campbell
Speaker 2: I don't think. I'm not sure that they are players
Speaker 2: who will reach Josh's level at his position, But even so,
Speaker 2: I don't think there's any rush to do it, and frankly,
Speaker 2: I think it'd be a risk to do it at
Speaker 2: this point, and I would be surprised if it was
Speaker 2: on the table.
Speaker 1: I don't think it is on the table. I think
Speaker 1: that's definitely something they'll look at next year, and I
Speaker 1: would imagine they would want to play a full, healthy
Speaker 1: season both of those players to hopefully get their highest value.
Speaker 1: Our final question today for the Ozone Nail Guy is
Speaker 1: coming from Art in New Jersey says, I think the
Speaker 1: new kickoff rules will be fun. Do you think they
Speaker 1: will lead to more running backs returning kicks?
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: My first thing was to say no because of the
Speaker 2: injury factor, and then I sort of rethought it a
Speaker 2: little bit and read a little bit more about it,
Speaker 2: and it could. I don't think the Jaguars will use
Speaker 2: Travis etn in that role unless.
Speaker 3: Devin Durbiny were already get hurt, but it does.
Speaker 2: The reason that running backs hadn't been used before was
Speaker 2: he didn't want to risk your star players for injuries.
Speaker 2: Now I do think you could see more quote star
Speaker 2: players playing back there. For the Jaguars, They've already got
Speaker 2: their star returner, so it's gonna be interesting. I don't
Speaker 2: know that we know the answer to this question yet.
Speaker 2: I think it will evolve next season, but I think
Speaker 2: you could get back to a point where teams are
Speaker 2: putting Back in the day when Washington was really good,
Speaker 2: they would put Darryl Green back there, who was an
Speaker 2: all Pro cornerback, and when they needed it, they would
Speaker 2: put him back on kicks.
Speaker 3: It was mainly punts.
Speaker 2: But point being, if you take the injury risk out
Speaker 2: of it, and it does look like this new format
Speaker 2: will significantly take the injury risk away from the returner,
Speaker 2: then maybe you we'll see more running backs.
Speaker 1: You watch some of the setups they have for XFL
Speaker 1: and stuff. It just looks so strange. But I'm very
Speaker 1: excited to see that.
Speaker 2: But it looks like the pace once they get going,
Speaker 2: it does look strange, but the pace does feel more
Speaker 2: like a running back's pace, if that makes any sense. Yes,
Speaker 2: because you're sort of starting more from a standing position.
Speaker 3: You're kind of building accelerate. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I think a lot of this it is
Speaker 2: to be played out. It'll take some innovative coach to
Speaker 2: do something that'll work.
Speaker 3: People will follow it.
Speaker 1: This is a good change I think we can agree on.
Speaker 1: I think it'll be fun at least at least a
Speaker 1: little bit different. Not I feel like every time we
Speaker 1: get a rule change, we're always complaining. With this one,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of interested.
Speaker 2: In well credited for trying something because the kickoff had
Speaker 2: been taken out of the game. The shame is that
Speaker 2: I I've yet to see anything that can bring the
Speaker 2: on side kickback because the danger and I think the
Speaker 2: on side kicked the way they've got it having to
Speaker 2: tell teams you're going to do it and you're.
Speaker 3: Sort of silly.
Speaker 2: But they'll figure out a way to bring that element back,
Speaker 2: maybe the fourth and twenty five past they've been talking about.
Speaker 2: But I do think this will add more excitement. It
Speaker 2: had gotten to the point where we're sitting in the
Speaker 2: press box and each other guy, we don't even bother
Speaker 2: watching the kickoff.
Speaker 1: You know, so then you sit down there, go get
Speaker 1: a coffee.
Speaker 3: That kind of stinks, So I think it'd be a
Speaker 3: good thing to get it back.
Speaker 1: All right, say what's here on Jagzam. We'll be right
Speaker 1: back after the break from the Hyundai studios here for
Speaker 1: Jagsam closing things out. We mentioned off the top of
Speaker 1: the show it's t minus twenty three days until the draft.
Speaker 1: We're in full draft mode.
Speaker 3: John.
Speaker 1: What does that mean for you? Are you looking into
Speaker 1: all of these particular players or are you still trying
Speaker 1: to figure out Well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I look at the first round realistically. I
Speaker 2: always kind of laugh when I see seven round mock.
Speaker 1: Drafts because they need to tell me the lottery numbers
Speaker 1: if they can get all that well, the.
Speaker 2: First rounds darted aboard anyway, and then once you get
Speaker 2: into the sixth round, for me to try to figure
Speaker 2: out who they might take in the sixth round. You know,
Speaker 2: more power too if you can figure it out. But
Speaker 2: it's it's mainly trying to look at positions and trying
Speaker 2: to get a feel for conceptually what they might do.
Speaker 2: I'm not one to ever think you can grade a draft,
Speaker 2: especially right out of the box, but I think you
Speaker 2: can get a feel for did a team do what
Speaker 2: they wanted to do? Did they go need over best
Speaker 2: available player? Which I think is always dangerous, especially as
Speaker 2: you get deeper in the draft. So it's things like
Speaker 2: that I try to figure out rather than trying to
Speaker 2: get into the seventh round.
Speaker 3: Defensive end talked.
Speaker 1: A little bit about trading for picks. Trent Bulk stockpiled
Speaker 1: a bunch of them last year. They have eight this year.
Speaker 1: Is this something where if they were going to trade
Speaker 1: up maybe try to get higher in first or second round.
Speaker 1: Would that be something we see now wish or would
Speaker 1: that be closer to actual drafts?
Speaker 2: Well, if you're gonna do the first round and you
Speaker 2: have an early pick, you often see it. Now, You
Speaker 2: rarely see it deep in the draft until the draft
Speaker 2: because teams are usually trading up to somebody involved is
Speaker 2: usually trading up to go.
Speaker 3: Get a specific player.
Speaker 2: So if you're Trent right now and you're sitting at seventeen,
Speaker 2: is it worth it to try to go up to
Speaker 2: nine when theoretically the guy that you're trying to go
Speaker 2: up and get could be gone.
Speaker 3: So you usually don't see that.
Speaker 2: I think when Sammy Watkins got traded for it's been
Speaker 2: ten eleven years now, they knew they were gonna make
Speaker 2: that trade.
Speaker 3: My understanding is, but they had.
Speaker 2: To wait until a couple of guys got off the
Speaker 2: board to make sure he was going to be available
Speaker 2: to get there, And that's that's sort of the common
Speaker 2: thing is I think magical about the Sammy Watkins story.
Speaker 2: One interesting thing about this draft, it is not considered
Speaker 2: a very deep draft. Last year's was maybe the deepest ever.
Speaker 2: Next year is supposed to be very very deep. This
Speaker 2: year is not considered great in the sixth or seventh round,
Speaker 2: so that can.
Speaker 3: Play into.
Speaker 2: It can theoretically make trading more difficult because people really
Speaker 2: don't care about getting anything. Then so you're not really
Speaker 2: going to be getting people to give up anything to
Speaker 2: get into those rounds.
Speaker 3: So will that play out that way?
Speaker 2: Probably not, because usually once guys get into the sixty
Speaker 2: seventh round, they figure out something that they like and
Speaker 2: they get antsy and they want to trade.
Speaker 3: But not considered a very deep drift.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, we will deep dive into this. As
Speaker 1: we mentioned, we're going to be talking about it for
Speaker 1: the next twenty three days, so we'll keep you covered there.
Speaker 1: We'll see you back here next week on jag Zam.
