Now, 0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:21.720 here's your host, Paul Chargia. 0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:24.840 We are still basking in draft season. 0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:25.880 Yeah. 0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.360 I know the events behind us, but god, it's so 0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:30.040 much fun to break it down and so much to 0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:33.080 talk about. And who better to talk to than thor 0:00:33.200 --> 0:00:33.680 nice Strom. 0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:35.960 Great to have you back, buddy, Awesome to be here. Yeah, 0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.519 I mean, what a crazy weekend we're coming off of 0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:40.920 with the NFL Draft, and it's it's super exciting to 0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:43.400 get into the evaluations for these guys for the coming 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:44.240 fantasy season. 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:46.720 Yes, and we're gonna do this in two parts. This 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:50.280 week it's guys who hit the right landing spots after 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:52.280 round one because last weok, he did round one because 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:54.440 we record on Fridays and we knew all that. We 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:58.200 knew everything from Thursday. This week it's round two and beyond. 0:00:58.400 --> 0:01:01.240 We're not doing every single player. I've limited this to 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:03.600 something in the ballpark of like I don't know, we're 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.880 going to do like eleven guys round two and beyond 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:09.080 thor that where we like the landing spot. 0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:11.200 Yes, So now I. 0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.000 Want to be clear, we're not suggesting these players are 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:16.120 automatically going to have fantasy success. What we are saying 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.760 is that these are guys who have fallen into a 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:23.600 spot that gives them a primrose path to fantasy success 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:25.839 and possibly in the near future as well. 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:28.759 And mostly I've mostly we're. 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:30.880 Looking at players in rounds two through four because these 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:34.639 are higher value players that I think are probably better 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:38.600 that the team has got more equity built into. And again, 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:41.119 not a comprehendhensive list, but there's a lot of great 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:42.040 names here in great. 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.560 Spots predominantly, yes, and we're going to talk about some 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.920 really interesting ones. We also have a couple of deep 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:50.400 sleepers for you guys. Excited for that too. And then 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:53.000 next week let's do worst landing spots. 0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.480 So guys that were even if we really like the player, 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:58.320 we don't like where he ended up and we're worried 0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.080 about the timeline for six sess on those guys. So 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:04.360 that'll be next week. Okay, So best landing spots. I 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:06.920 want to start with this guy, Trey Benson. He was 0:02:06.960 --> 0:02:10.440 my favorite fantasy back coming into this draft. He drops 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.720 into Arizona in round three, currently going off the board 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:18.000 to pick twelve in non superflex rookie drafts. He gets 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:20.160 into an improving offense. And I feel like I've said 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.880 this stat like five times in the last month. Arizona 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:26.720 averaged twenty five points per game in their final five 0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:29.040 or maybe it was six games of last year, so 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:31.760 they were getting better. They add a stable quarterback. They 0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:36.520 add Marvin Harrison and James Connor, who played well last year, 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:38.320 but he's aged twenty nine. I mean, the cliff's coming 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:43.040 for James Connor. And when it does, there's Trey Benson. 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:46.240 Who is about to put his boot onto the bumper 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:49.679 of James Connor's car off a back cliff. Right, Yeah, 0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:53.920 Trey Benson's coming for you at James. A very interesting 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.720 pick and a great landing spot for Trey Bentson. I 0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:01.080 think he starts chomping into Connor's usage immediately bypasses him 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:04.120 in very short order. In twenty twenty two, Trey Benson 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:08.200 sets the single season PFF record for force miss tackle rate. 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.880 In that season, he became the first collegiate running back 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:13.560 in the PFF charting era with a force miss tackle 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.640 rate over fifty percent. Oh, I love it. That was crazy. 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.360 And then you combine the last two seasons, Benson was 0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:22.040 number one out of two hundred twenty six qualifiers in 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.840 miss tackles force per attempt. Oh. So you have that 0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:29.320 so sexy an you talk to me like this so hot. 0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:32.000 You have that aspect of his game where he's breaking 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.080 the tackles in the first level to get out to 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.720 that second level. And once he does, that's where the 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.040 size speed combination comes in. He was the premier combination 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.000 of that in this class for three nine wheels at 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.760 two hundred and sixteen pounds. Guys an absolute stud of 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:47.400 an athlete. That's why you saw him a cru so 0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:50.240 many explosive runs at Florida State. The other thing I 0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.920 would say about him, Mike Norvelu, go back to Memphis. 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.320 Remember when the way that he used Antonio Gibson, the 0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:57.720 way he used Tony Pollard, When he had guys that 0:03:57.800 --> 0:04:01.440 could multi dimensional skill, guy that could handle this sort 0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:03.400 of thing, he would he would motion them out to 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.280 the slot, do interesting receiving things with them, get the 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.120 blockers out in front of him. He was doing that 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.240 sort of stuff. With Trey Benson because he's skilled enough 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:13.000 as a receiver. I also liked on Trey Benson's tape 0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:16.160 the way he would sell play the play action, then 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.159 work his way through the line of scrimmage, work his 0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:20.400 way through the garbage, get around that, and make himself 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:23.279 immediately available to the quarterback. Got a lot of targets 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.680 doing that. His hands are good and you get the 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.120 tackle break in Berserker. After that, all you got to 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:29.839 do is get is hit him on the hands eighty 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:33.840 six percentile among running backs and miss tackles force per reception. 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:35.680 So that's a side of the other thing we were 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:36.159 talking about. 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:40.520 And Florida State never does like workhorse back that they've 0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:43.920 just beaten into the ground with, you know, two hundred 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:45.560 and fifty three hundred touches. 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:48.640 You know, they always use rotations of guys. 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:51.040 I mean they And so Benson comes into the NFL 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:55.039 really with pretty low mileage but enough usage. You feel 0:04:55.120 --> 0:04:57.440 really good projecting success for the Cardinals. 0:04:57.480 --> 0:04:59.200 That's right. Yeah, And it's a it's a nippick you 0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:01.080 can have about NorVa when you're thinking about these guys 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.239 for the NFL, because you're, like, man, I wish Benson 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:05.760 like last year, the usage he would get pulled off 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:07.720 the field sometimes because this is what Mike Norvell has 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:09.920 done going back to Memphis, and it's like, man, you've 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.120 got an awesome running back on your roster, just funnel 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:13.640 at all to him. But that's just the way that 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:15.320 does system. 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.520 All right, Let's go to the next running back with 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:22.080 that fell into a promising spot. Jonathan Brooks ends up 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.479 in Carolina in round two. He's currently going up the 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.760 board to pick eleven in non superflex rookie drafts. You know, 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.440 I was a little lukewarm on his overall game. I 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.200 don't see special NFL level traits like I do in 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:37.159 Trey Benson, but I love the opportunity in Carolina, and 0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:41.240 Carolina's offensive line non awful in run black blocking. They 0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:44.760 ranked sixteenth by Pro Football Focus. And he's just been 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:47.359 playing better than Chewba Hubbard and where Miles Sanders is 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.240 right now, and those I mean, those guys could be 0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:51.480 cut candidates for me as far as I'm as far 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:53.799 as I'm concerned. What are your thoughts on this landing 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:55.640 spot for Jonathan Brooks in Carolina? 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:57.880 This is probably the best landing spot for any running 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.880 back that was taken, which is the case because I 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.920 don't know why Dallas didn't take a ruddy back draft 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:07.039 was weird. But because of that, this is objectively, I 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:09.560 think the best landing spot. He walks in immediately and 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:12.479 is going to be the belcow of the running game there. 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.440 Jonathan Brooks a guy earlier in his career stuck behind 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:19.240 Bijon Robinson and Roshawn Johnson. This this past season, he 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.120 made up for it. The first ten games of the season, 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.359 he was averaging over one hundred and forty scrimmage yards 0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:27.680 per game. Unfortunately, he tears his ACL against TCU on 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:31.239 November eleventh. That was the then that of course wiped 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.800 out his entire pre draft process. Wasn't able to test 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.680 everything like that. I love his feet. I like him 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.599 as a runner. He makes people miss that. That's the 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:41.600 part of his game where I mean, I think Caroline 0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:43.880 is going to give him a metric ton of carries 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:45.200 this coming season, the. 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:48.800 One assuming he comes back in short order from the injury. 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.839 And they've been the public comments about that have been 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:53.640 pretty bullish that he's going to be ready for the 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:55.560 start of the season. Well to see, I mean, like 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:59.320 we're in the middle of his recovery process right now, right, yes, 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.520 you know well to see, but at least the timeline 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:04.320 that has been given to us publicly, it sounds promising. 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:06.640 The one part of his game that I'll be interested 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.680 to see how much at the NFL level is the 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.120 receiving element of it. Obviously earlier in his career because 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.720 of the way that you know, with Beijon there and Rochean, 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:18.680 he just wasn't used as much as a receiver, and 0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:20.920 then those first ten games a lot of the usage 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:23.240 was coming as a runner. So I'm not sure about 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.640 that aspect of his game, but he's gonna get He 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:27.679 is going to be the belcow of that Carolina offense 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:29.280 as far as the runner immediately, and. 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:31.680 That's Jonathan Brooks. Let's go to another running back that 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.960 fell into a nice spot. Kamani Vidal has been. 0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:36.280 You know, he's been. 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:38.280 There's been a ton of talk and buzz in the 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.920 fantasy community since the draft, even though he didn't get 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.560 taken until round six, and he's currently going off the 0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:47.280 board to pick thirty nine and non super flex rookie drafts. 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.720 He needs to get passed JK. Dobbins and Gus Edwards, 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:53.280 but they just haven't looked the same since their respect 0:07:53.280 --> 0:07:55.720 of ACL injuries. I mean, you can't always bounce back 0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:58.480 from these like you like you want to. But part 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.800 of the love here is Greg Roman and Jim Harbaugh 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:04.760 give us the most run heavy combo in the NFL, right, 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.120 so opportunity is. 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:09.120 Going to be there one thousand percent. Kamani Vidal, I 0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.240 absolutely love his game. The last couple of years, he 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:15.679 was the Belkow period, end of story for that Troy 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.400 team that was dominant in the G five. He got, 0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:20.000 he got all the looks there. He would stay on 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.520 the field on passing downs, but to pass block in 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.400 that system predominantly last four years he averaged around twenty 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.960 catches per season, not because he can't catch, but because 0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.320 that was the way their offense was set up. It 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:34.120 turns out that Kamani Vidal is probably the best pass 0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:37.360 blocking back in this class, which is going to keep 0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:39.280 him on the field for passing downs. If not. I 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.480 think he's a better receiver than he was given credit 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:44.240 for in the process. But as a runner, a very 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:47.040 very interesting player. And the landing spot here, of course 0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:50.920 is great Jim Harbaugh. This is his type of running back. 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.120 Blake Korham ends up going in the third round to 0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.120 Sean mcvabe, so at least he stays in the same 0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:57.360 area code as Jim Harbaugh. But I thought it was 0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:59.760 so interesting that three runs they can have sleepovers. They 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:02.960 can sleepovers exactly. But three rounds later he ends up 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:06.880 taking Vidal, who is essentially the pointing spider Man give 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.320 of Blake Koram as a physical package. They're in the 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:11.920 same height, they're the same weight. It's just Kamani Vidal 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:15.320 is a better athlete. Kamani Vidal ended up testing as 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.320 an eighty eight percentile athlete five A two thirteen. You 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:21.160 know you have that bowling ball build. Kamani Vidal ran 0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:23.320 for four thousand yards in the FBS. He did it 0:09:23.400 --> 0:09:25.320 a different way than Blake Korum, even though they're in 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:29.520 the same dimensions. Blake Koram is more your breaking bowling 0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:33.200 ball on the lane, where he does it with agility, tempo, patience, 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:37.120 different stuff like that Kamani Vidal, whereas with him, it's 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.000 throwing the bowling ball at the pins where it's he 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:44.240 comes forward, the acceleration. He's not waiting for anyone breaking 0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.839 through that line, and it's a different type of a 0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:50.880 playing style for back that type where a lot of them. 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:54.600 Usually you see more of the Korum type, Devin Motor, Singletary, 0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:58.280 those kind of guys where it's more shaken. Vadal takes 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.080 the fight to you. And and it's not just that 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.320 he accrued all these stats against G five teams. They 0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:05.760 played Kansas State. Kansas State was loading eight man boxing 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.880 against Kamani Vidal. He was blowing through into the second 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.800 third level. The guy that I compared Kamani Vidal to 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.319 was Jalen Warren, which I got a chance to ask 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.560 Kamani down in Mobile at the Senior but what he 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.719 thought of my company, He was starting to laugh, and 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.160 he compared himself to Maurice Jones Drew. But he did 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:26.080 say that he liked my comp of him. The thing 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:28.640 with those two guys' games. When Jalen Warren came out 0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:30.839 of Oklahoma State, obviously he was under sauld the ends 0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.960 up going undrafted. Warren finished his last season there number 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.240 two in the FBS and forced miss tackles. This past season, 0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:40.280 Kabati Vedal finished number two in the FBS and forced 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:42.640 miss tackles. I think that that's what he has bringing, 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.080 that kind of game is what he is bringing to 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.920 the Charterers. I believe that in his rookie season he 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.800 upset JK. Dobbins and Gus Edwards to start as a 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.400 rookie for Jim Harbaugh in that run first offense that 0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:53.360 they have with Greg Roman. 0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:56.040 Let's transition to tight ends, and you and I broke 0:10:56.080 --> 0:10:58.640 down the tight end position only like what four shows ago. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:00.480 So I don't want to spend a ton of time 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:02.320 on who these guys are, but I do like the 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.959 opportunities for three different guys that fell into spots where 0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:09.640 they can be short, they can become starters, perhaps as 0:11:09.679 --> 0:11:14.959 early as week one, number one Jatavian Sanders, he falls 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.360 to Carolina, He's only got to beat out Tommy Trumbull 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:22.640 and Ian Thomas here and a completely rebuilt Carolina offense. 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:25.559 You know, with new coaching staff, obviously we're you know, 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:27.360 we're gonna get year number two for Bryce Young. It's 0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.440 going to be better. It's going to be better for 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.800 Bryce Young. One hundred percent chance it's going to be better. 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.120 What are your thoughts about that landing spot for Sanders. 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:37.480 I'm interested to see if they're if Carolina is willing 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.000 to take a third receiver off the field to get 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:42.720 him onto it, or if or if they'll go without 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:45.480 an inline guy, because the thing with Jatavian Sanders is 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.800 he cannot play inline. He will get ragg dall and 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:49.480 it's one of the reasons why he fell down the 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:52.240 board a little bit. Yeah, as far as his receiving utility, 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.719 to me, it's isolated to two things. And Steve Starkesian 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:59.800 very cleverly schemed to uh to work around these things 0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:02.560 and to play these things up. With his testing. You 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.240 saw the speed and you saw the burst. The rest 0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.200 of his athletic testing disappointed. That's why he finished fifty 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:11.960 seven percentile in that. But he can stretch the seam absolutely, 0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:14.720 he can absolutely do that, and he can make plays downfield. 0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:17.280 The other thing that they would do for him, Sarkeshan 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.520 would get the defense focusing on Xavier Worthy Adonai Mitchell 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:22.560 on the other side of the field and would get 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:26.479 Sanders isolated against one of the tertiary you know, linebackers 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:29.280 strong safety against Sanders in space one on one hit 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:33.319 him on the hands in the intermediate area where he 0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:35.760 had the opportunity to turn up field and hit the jets. 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.199 So you would see the yak yardage there to Chaevian 0:12:38.240 --> 0:12:40.840 Sanders does not break tackles, but he gets yak yardage 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:42.840 because of that and the way he was schemed with that. 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:46.800 If Carolina uses him cleverly like that, I think that's 0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:48.800 where you get the receiving utility out of him at 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.080 the NFL level. But again I'm curious how they do 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:53.760 their offensive usage because you have the three starting receivers 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:55.480 now that they had to get to that room. 0:12:55.640 --> 0:12:59.400 Yeah, and that's and on the interior they got Deontay 0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:02.440 Johnson now add feeling, both guys that run a fair 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:05.400 amount from the slot, and so you worry about Sanders 0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:08.079 necessarily just having room to stand up if he's not 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:09.600 gonna be an inline guy and he's going to be 0:13:09.600 --> 0:13:11.559 standing in the slot. What do we do if we've 0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:13.319 got two receivers who can run in the slot. 0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:15.920 For sure, but a far far, far better receiver and 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:18.160 offers more utility than those two other guys that you 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:19.640 mentioned on the Carolina depth chart. 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:23.440 Sanders currently going pick thirty six and non superflex rookie drafts. 0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:24.720 Let's go to another tight end. 0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:28.360 Eric Hall drops into Cincinnati and one of the better 0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.480 spots available for a tight end. He only needs to 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:34.240 beat out Tanner, Hudson, Drew sample Mike Koseki, who at 0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:35.720 this point I think we can just call it. We 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.480 can stop referring to Mike Aseki as a former first rounder. 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:40.719 Let's just call him a journeyman because I think at 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:43.520 this point that's where he is and in his career path. 0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:46.439 What do you think of Eric Hall currently going off 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:49.040 the board way down at pick fifty four in non 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:50.160 superflex rookie drafts. 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:53.160 Oh, that's a mistake by people, isn't it. Yes, Eric All? 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:55.439 I love Eric All. I was so ballish on him. 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:57.160 He was my tight end three, and as I put 0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.120 in my scouting report with the tight ends, he would 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:01.559 have been my tight end two if I had confirmation 0:14:01.679 --> 0:14:04.320 on the medicals that that he had been cleared with 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.800 at it. It feels like the Bengals were okay with 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:09.480 it based on where they took him, which is right 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:12.320 around where he was on my board. Eric All is 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:15.440 very clearly the number two guy at this position group 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:17.959 in terms of receiving utility offered to the next level 0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:20.120 he's been. He was starting at Michigan for the two 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:22.680 years prior to when he went to Iowa. Last year 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:24.400 at Iowa, when he was on the field the first 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.200 six games or so, he was one of the better 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:29.440 receiving tight ends in college football by the numbers and 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:32.280 what was once again a rancid passing offense in Iowa City. 0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:34.560 But they had brought him in after he transferred from 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.760 Michigan in order to step into Sam Laporta's inline spot 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.240 in their offense. Yeah, when he was at Michigan, he 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.880 was playing more of the h back, big slot role, 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:46.240 move around chess piece, kind of a role that this 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:49.600 past year Colson Lovelin filled in Jim Harbaugh's offense. But 0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:52.400 I love the athleticism with Eric All in conjunction with 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:55.080 the receiving skill, and he has ball skills as well. 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.640 But you can see examples of this even in his 0:14:57.680 --> 0:14:59.640 brief time in Iowa City. There was a play last 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:02.720 year they hit him on the hands intermediate against Penn 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.520 State and he ends up turning the corner and Kaylan 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.160 King was the cornerback who is trailing him. Eric All 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:11.360 outruns Kaylan King to the end zone for love fifty 0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:13.760 yards out. Wow, kaylan King and his pro day ran 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:15.920 I believe a four or five to one, So I 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:19.120 think eric All would have ran probably in the high 0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:22.160 four fours had he been able to test Caylen King 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.160 I'm sorry, four or five to two at Penn States Prode. 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:28.600 But at least on that play in pads, eric All 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.040 appeared to be faster than him. Washington's Devin culpad the 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:34.880 fastest forty time with tight ends that were tested this 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.360 year at four four seven, eric All would have been 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:40.200 challenging him. And then you know Theo Johnson was the 0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:41.800 one everyone was going nuts about. Was a four or 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:44.480 five seven, eric All would have licked him. And again, 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:47.280 the route running, the ball skills. We have seen this 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.560 going back a couple of years. The only reason he 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:51.600 felt the way he did and in the pre draft 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:53.800 process there wasn't more talk about him. It's because of 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.400 that back injury that ended his career at Michigan. There 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.600 was a disagreement about whether he should shut it down 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:01.040 that season and rock for that thirt That's what ends 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:03.440 up leading to his transfer goes to Iowa. 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.520 If you're gonna go anywhere you go to tight end, 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:09.040 you leave Michigan. If you're gonna leave Michigan for any 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.840 program as a tight end, Iowa is the one. 0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.480 And if they're attracted to you, Yeah, that's the one 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:18.160 position you could trust the Iowa City coaching staff to identify. 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:19.960 And like I said, he was doing so well at 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:21.920 the beginning of the season and then the torn ACL 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.480 I'm comfortable enough with that back into the a CL 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.360 with modern technology that doesn't concern me at all. The 0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:31.040 back injury though, it seems as though he all was 0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:33.240 the one who elected for it and there was no 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:35.760 one else who would shut him down that season. So 0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:37.840 because of that and then because he comes back the 0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.680 next season, I'm making a situational assumption, of course, looking 0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:42.680 into the black box of his medicals which they don't 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:45.760 release to us, that it's it doesn't crazy elevate his 0:16:45.840 --> 0:16:47.680 risk at the NFL level, and obviously that's what the 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.880 Bengals have told us. Their read is on it by 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:52.400 taking them where they did, but big time sleeper Eric Hall, 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:55.280 and at a position, by the way, we've been crying 0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:57.160 out in the last couple of years for the Bengals 0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.400 to take the pass catching monster at tight end for 0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:02.040 Jie Burrow. They did it here at his sticker price 0:17:02.120 --> 0:17:04.919 discon with a guy where if his body doesn't betray 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:06.480 him Eric All is going to be a star in 0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:07.000 the NFL. 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:08.600 All right, last tight end I want to hit you with, 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:11.560 and then we'll switch over to wide receivers. Ben Sennett, 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:13.239 I gotta love a guy named Senate finds his way 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:15.840 to Washington. You can't you can't make it any better 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:20.119 than that. Washington did sign zach Ertz, but Logan Thomas 0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.280 is gone and there's just no other threats on the roster, 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.520 and zach Ertz is at the bitter end of his career. 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:28.280 I believe, so maybe Ertz holds him off for. 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:31.680 A year, but it feels like Senate's a guy that 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:34.200 by this time next year is going to be ready 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:34.760 to explode. 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:35.600 And then Jayden. 0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:37.840 Daniels will be a year another year in as a starter, 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:40.560 and you can really project for a pretty cool twenty 0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:42.920 twenty five for him, for sure, six foot four, two 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:46.400 hundred and fifty pounds, ninety seven percentile athlete, eerily similar 0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:49.040 in all those things, including the specific test to Sam 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:53.080 Laporta from last class. To me, he's like ninety five 0:17:53.160 --> 0:17:56.719 percent ninety three percent version of Sam Laporta. Games are 0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:59.840 very similar. You can play him inline stud blocker who 0:18:00.000 --> 0:18:02.159 absolutely gets after I think he's number two in this 0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:04.280 class in terms of that from the metrics last year 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:07.320
