00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: and Ramon Foster. I am Mike Keith. Amy Wells is

7
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: with us from Kansas City. Let's go to Amy first

8
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: to begin Amy your takeaways from the draft site about

9
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: what happened tonight? What jumped out to you.

10
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,880
Speaker 2: Well, Mike, it was a it was a pretty rowdy

11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: night in Old Kansas City. There were a ton of

12
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: people there. The turnout was incredible. Right around the time

13
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 2: that the draft actually began, they announced that they weren't

14
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 2: allowing any more people on. Like within the footprint it

15
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 2: was capped at sixty thousand people, which says a couple

16
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 2: things to me. A, there's a lot of football fans

17
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 2: here in Kansas City. B they had a huge footprint,

18
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 2: a huge area where people could be. Sixty thousand people

19
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 2: is a lot of people. But three, if you do

20
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: that math and I'm not great with numbers. The ot

21
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 2: people know that, but sixty thousand times three does not

22
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 2: equal six hundred thousand. So Nashville's record is intact for

23
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 2: another year. So those are the initial things that jump

24
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 2: out to me. But also from a football standpoint, the

25
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 2: draft was wild and crazy this year, and there were

26
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: a lot of unexpected twists and turns pretty early. And

27
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: another place that was really rowdy was the media workroom

28
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: in a hotel that was across the street from where

29
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: the actual draft was happening. There were media members of

30
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: all shapes and sizes who were just on the edge

31
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: of their seats. There was a reaction, like loud reactions

32
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 2: every time a trade was made or a pick was

33
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: made because there were so many things that were unexpected

34
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: in this draft. So it was the rowdy one all

35
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: the way around. It was exciting to be on site

36
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 2: in Kansas City, and I can only imagine that Nights

37
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: two and three are going to be just as rowdy.

38
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: Coach Dave McGinnis, your reaction tonight one of the NFL

39
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: Draft for twenty twenty three.

40
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,919
Speaker 3: Well, I agree with with Amy.

41
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 4: You know what put excitement and adrilline into this draft

42
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 4: was all the trades. You mentioned the number of trades

43
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 4: at how it you know.

44
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 3: At how it just surpassed very quickly what went on last.

45
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 4: Year and the flurry of trades, And the thing that

46
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 4: caught my attention was the different people that were trading.

47
00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 4: You know, we had you got several groups that had

48
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 4: had double digit picks in this draft. There's a lot

49
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 4: of smoke out there before this draft about who who

50
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 4: would be moving up, whould not. None of that happened,

51
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 4: but even more happened on the back end of it.

52
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 4: And so to me, the thing that I like, and

53
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 4: of course you know with this, with this draft board

54
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 4: that Ret and I put together, the thing that I

55
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 4: just want to be able to do when I'm looking

56
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 4: at this is see if we stayed within the first

57
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 4: and second pods for thirty one picks. There was not

58
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 4: one person pick outside of those two pods, which makes

59
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 4: me very happy as far as with our evaluation. Plus

60
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 4: what tells me nobody reached for anything. Sometime in a

61
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: draft you will say, wow, that is a reach. Nobody

62
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 4: reached for some So I would think everybody, every team

63
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: is it feels really really good about their pick. I'm

64
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 4: really happy about our pick. I'm extremely happy about our pick,

65
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 4: and that makes that's a good foundational piece.

66
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Ramonte Foster your thoughts on Night one, amazing night.

67
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 5: NFL has his way of rope us all in keeping

68
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 5: us entertained. Whether it's teams realizing that, look, we have

69
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 5: to do certain things to compete.

70
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: Houston moving up.

71
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 5: The way they did, I think shifted the entire draft,

72
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 5: not necessarily breaking it up, but it made you understand that, look,

73
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 5: if you want to go, get a guy, get a guy.

74
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 5: The surprising thing to me not having a wide receiver

75
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 5: up until twenty I'll say this, the Titans getting one

76
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 5: of those blue chip guys at eleven without having to

77
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 5: mortgage your future to get a guy like that was

78
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,359
Speaker 5: huge to me. And just the overall quality of players

79
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 5: that were taken. I'll say this again, I don't know

80
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 5: if there's any major superstars in this draft, but what

81
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 5: you have is a bunch of double digit year type

82
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 5: of guys that were picked by teams that are keep

83
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 5: this NFL brand at an all time high. Amazing draft

84
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 5: by all teams, specifically the Titans in this one to

85
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 5: get Peter Skeronski. You don't get this opportunity often unless

86
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 5: you're drafting in the top five. Real huge geit and

87
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 5: I'm excited to see what he turns into.

88
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 6: Brian, your thoughts about Night one, Ah, echo what they've

89
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 6: said about Scaransky. One of the better picks in this

90
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 6: draft for not, you know, a non skill player. He

91
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 6: was at the top of two different positions on the

92
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 6: ret and MAC board here as an interior offensive lineman

93
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 6: and a tackle and excited to see what he'll do

94
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 6: to fortify the line in this thing. But six trades,

95
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 6: two of them involving Jacksonville picks up four extra selections

96
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 6: out of that. We saw a four consecutive slot run

97
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 6: of wide receivers in the bottom third of the first round.

98
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 6: But it's still dominated by the Southeastern Conference. Alabama, Georgia.

99
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 6: I mean there's picks littered through this thing. I mean

100
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 6: Alabama starting quarterback and running back taken Georgia. The Eagles

101
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 6: took two Georgia defensive stars in his smart And the

102
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 6: other part of it is will Levis, Hendon Hooker are

103
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 6: sitting there for Night two, and listen, there's a lot

104
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 6: of really good talent to go to rounds two and

105
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 6: three for tomorrow night.

106
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: Amy, let me go back to you for a second

107
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: quick thought on what it was like when the Titans

108
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: picked Peter Skrunsky.

109
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: Well, it was definitely exciting for myself and Ashley Ferrell

110
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 2: because that is a very exciting pick for the Tennessee

111
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 2: Titans and a big area of need for this team.

112
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 2: But the entire media.

113
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: Workroom kind of yawned.

114
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: I don't want to say they were cheering, because that's

115
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 2: not it, but definitely responded. I don't think that that

116
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 2: was the expectation. I think a lot of people thought

117
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: that the Titans might go more than will Levis route.

118
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: They might go yeah, they might go a wide receiver.

119
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 2: So those were kind of the rumblings throughout the room.

120
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 2: So then when they were able to get not only

121
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 2: an offensive lineman but one of that caliber at that position,

122
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: it wasn't surprising to me. I thought it was a

123
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 2: great fit. But a lot of the media members within

124
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 2: the room, we're not expecting that, and so it was

125
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: fun to have a little excitement and a little buzz

126
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: around the Titans for a minute. It was a cool moment,

127
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: and I was just so excited.

128
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: That's interesting. It's interesting because there was really no surprise here.

129
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 3: No, they were there was.

130
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 4: There was a lot of elation here, and you know

131
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 4: the media, you know, being wrong is not unusual easy.

132
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: You know you're part of the media now, right, I do.

133
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 4: I'm not wrong, that's good, but it really, I mean

134
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 4: it was when he was there at that moment, Come on, man,

135
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 4: I mean you kept saying, Coach Mike, you keeps saying,

136
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 4: he's the cleanest player, the cleanest player.

137
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: Well so you're so you said it. You look at

138
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: that and you say, how do you not just take him?

139
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: Unless you you had this feeling about Levice that he

140
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: was your guy for the long term. But I mean,

141
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: if you're taking a quarterback at eleven, you're saying he's

142
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: he's it, you are.

143
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 5: And there's so much that goes into it for a

144
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 5: guy like Will Levis that you have to really kind

145
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 5: of say, what does he really fit us?

146
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: Like?

147
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 5: Was it just to the talent he was surrounded around

148
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 5: in Kentucky? Like those are a lot of questions and

149
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 5: the best bet for this team. It seems like to

150
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 5: allow Ryan Tannehill be surrounded by talent, get protection, Pete Skoransky,

151
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. Being able to deal in

152
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 5: the second day, third day of this draft and say

153
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 5: we're gonna build around this. We're not far off. The

154
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 5: level of competition is right there in front of us.

155
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 5: Injuries happened last year. Protection happens last year. And now

156
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 5: you got one of those pieces that from day one

157
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 5: when we started going through this ol, specifically tackle because

158
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 5: I think everybody had the idea Taylor Lewan maybe on

159
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,319
Speaker 5: this way out. There were three guys that always popped up.

160
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 5: That was Paris Johnson Jr. Broderick Jones who went six,

161
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 5: Broderick Jones who went fourteenth, and Peter Skoronski. Those three

162
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 5: were the top three guys. How many times Coach Mac,

163
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 5: Mike Keith Rhett do you get an opportunity to get

164
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 5: a guy who supposed to be a top ten pick

165
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 5: fall in your lap.

166
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: It doesn't happen often.

167
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 4: Well, the patients that you have to have. And here's

168
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 4: the other thing. This club has not picked this high

169
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: in what, Mike.

170
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: Seven years, It's been a long time.

171
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so when you get a chance. The thing

172
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 4: that I liked, having been in a lot of draft

173
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 4: rooms is I'm sure And you heard Mike Vrabel say this,

174
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: and you also heard Ran Carthons, They're sitting there.

175
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 3: Watching those picks tick off. They're just counting.

176
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 4: It can't go by fast enough for him. And as

177
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 4: I said, those guys sit there with just a neon

178
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 4: light on their head, and you're just hoping nobody else

179
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: notices until you can.

180
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 5: Pick the best thing I liked about him is watching film.

181
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 5: This is one thing I can watch. Anybody play a

182
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 5: lower level school right Tennessee, playing a school they pay

183
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 5: to come fine, Okay, But what I enjoyed about Peter

184
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,319
Speaker 5: Scorronsky is this. One of his best games was against

185
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 5: Michigan last year. The guy he had the block as

186
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 5: the guy that's gonna be a menace in this league,

187
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 5: Aiden Hutcheson h He did his thing against a.

188
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 1: Guy like that small arms.

189
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 5: Whatever you want to say about Peter Skeronsky moving forward,

190
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 5: he does what you're supposed to do at that position,

191
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 5: even if he's at left, even if he moves inside.

192
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 5: And he's already said this too in this uh in

193
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 5: this post draft interview, he said this, I understand what

194
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 5: is fit, what is what's supposed to happen going inside,

195
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 5: everything happens a little bit sooner. So him grabbing the

196
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 5: concept that.

197
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: If he does move the guard. Look, I gotta change him.

198
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: Stuff up.

199
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 5: I'm not on the island anymore. That was smart to

200
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 5: me because he went to Northwestern.

201
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 1: We know that.

202
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 4: But he's a he's a he's a really bright guy.

203
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: And I think we got just a glimpse of that.

204
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 4: But you know clearly through their interviews and you can

205
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 4: you can tell when guys are playing smart. Yeah, if

206
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 4: you watch enough tape, and uh, there was a lot

207
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 4: of purpose the way he plays.

208
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 6: Two takeaways on Peter Scronsky one as as it's developing,

209
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 6: and we feel like we figured, you know, this is

210
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 6: going to be the pick. It's a Titans pick.

211
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 1: That's if.

212
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 6: The other thing is this A few weeks ago, coach

213
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 6: Mack was doing a radio hit and he said, somebody

214
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 6: asked him, but he's a guard?

215
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 3: Is he a tackle?

216
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 6: He said, he's good. Pick him and figure it out later.

217
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 6: And guess what, there's where we are. Well, you didn't reach.

218
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 6: You filled a need and you got at number eleven,

219
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 6: one of the guys that I would bet had one

220
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 6: of your first round grades on and there weren't many

221
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 6: of those, just no doubt, and so you you got

222
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 6: one of the players that probably had more value than

223
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 6: even the eleventh pick. I mean you you did the

224
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 6: right thing for building this roster. As you build it forward,

225
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 6: as you take salaries off, as you add new players in,

226
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 6: as you try to rebuild the base of this roster,

227
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 6: add to that draft class last year, yes, and continue

228
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 6: to move it forward. And he's a guy who's going

229
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 6: to play football for you more than likely in twenty

230
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 6: twenty three, Mike. He's one of the better prospects in

231
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 6: this draft that is not an edge pass rusher and

232
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 6: not a receiver, not a corner, not a quarterback. It's

233
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 6: not sexy, no, no, but he is the head of

234
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 6: the class.

235
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: You got a five star guy, I know, a smart one,

236
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: all right. So let's talk Will Levis for just a second. Amy.

237
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: What was the reaction in Kansas City to Will Levis

238
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: not being picked.

239
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 2: I think there was some confusion. You have to remember

240
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 2: that all of the people who have been in Kansas

241
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 2: City and defense of our colleagues a little bit here,

242
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 2: have been removed from whatever teams they're with for a

243
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: couple of days because they've been on the road, or

244
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: they are media members who just cover a team and

245
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: so they don't have the access that we the Titans

246
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 2: squad per se have to a team on a daily basis,

247
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 2: you know. So a lot of these people have been

248
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: living in a very heavy Twitter rumor type of world

249
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 2: and it's a weird world to be living in because

250
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 2: you don't know what's factor fiction and it's just a

251
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 2: very strange place to be. And a lot of the

252
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 2: conversation on Wednesday, the night the day before the first

253
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 2: round of the draft was that, well, Levis is going

254
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 2: to be the first quarterback that comes off the board.

255
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 2: So it was a very bizarre kind of Levice heavy

256
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 2: going to the Titans, maybe going to Carolina, maybe going

257
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: to Maybe Bryce Young's not even that good. We don't

258
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 2: know because someone on Reddit said it, and you don't

259
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: know who to believe, and random outlets are picking things up.

260
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: This is the only access to information you have is

261
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 2: social media and the things that you're reading online. So

262
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 2: it's been a very bizarre twenty four ish hours of

263
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 2: just information that's coming from places and you're siphoning through

264
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 2: all of it on Twitter. But then yeah, as he

265
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: started to fall, everyone started to kind of mellow out

266
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 2: and stop to wonder, like, oh, oh, maybe we were duped.

267
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 2: Maybe that wasn't all Maybe those weren't all coming from

268
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: incredibly reliable sources.

269
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of talk amy that at this point.

270
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: Apparently there's some sort of toe injury that's maybe teams

271
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: had a concern about, and it would only take a

272
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: few of them to send him tumbling, because if they

273
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: were people who would potentially pick quarterbacks, then that could

274
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: send you that way. Anybody here not surprised that he

275
00:14:58,680 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: fell out of the first round.

276
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 3: I'm not surprised.

277
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: You're not surprised.

278
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 4: I am not surprised because he was a guy that

279
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 4: you were going to have to overlook a lot of things.

280
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 4: You're going to have to bank on the physical characteristics,

281
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 4: but overlook a lot of hitches as far as to

282
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 4: what was going on. And part of that is being

283
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 4: a guy that could just lead.

284
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 3: A team right right from the jump and if you

285
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 3: take one that high they need.

286
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: Are you talking about because of some of the quirks

287
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: and his personality.

288
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 4: Well, I'm just talking about he was very he seems

289
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 4: very up and down as far as just the way

290
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 4: he approaches things. And he's a gunslinger on the field, right,

291
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 4: He's a wild horse rider out there on the field,

292
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 4: and there's all the drafts I've been involved in, guys

293
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 4: and Amy. There's always somebody left in the green room.

294
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 4: There's always somebody.

295
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: There four tonight this year.

296
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 3: What they bring Amy seventeen up there?

297
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 2: There were seventeen up here and there's four left tonight.

298
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 3: There you go.

299
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: What had me out on Levis with this?

300
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 5: And I'll say this, I've been in that Anthony Richardson fan.

301
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 5: I just the games he played well in The Tennessee

302
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 5: game was very solid. The Utah game was really solid,

303
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 5: and I took that and I said, I'd much rather

304
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 5: have that. He has his ups and down in inconsistencies.

305
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 5: But the game that really turned over from me for

306
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 5: Levis was the Old Miss game on the road.

307
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: He had turnovers.

308
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 5: It looked like they were trying to force him into

309
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 5: that Heisman race, and he crumbled behind it. I don't

310
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 5: care where you are, what your team looks like going

311
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 5: into a season where you had every analyst say you're

312
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 5: supposed to be the number one draft pick or top

313
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 5: four draft pick going into the year, and you don't

314
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 5: help your team win. He had a very veteran running

315
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 5: back in Rodriguez. Their line wasn't as bad as I

316
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 5: think some say you had some skilled weapons on the

317
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 5: etch wide receiver position too, with Barry and Brown right

318
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 5: here in Nashville. Kid is one of the best ever.

319
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 5: You couldn't find ways to get on the ball. So

320
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 5: I looked at that and I said, you didn't make

321
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 5: your college team better. What makes me think you're gonna

322
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 5: make your This is just gonna be a turnover for

323
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 5: you in the NFL when I already don't love you,

324
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 5: Miserables and the other quirks that come along with you.

325
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 5: I'm not saying he's bad. What I'm saying is I

326
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 5: didn't think he was the first round draft pick when

327
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 5: it all boiled down.

328
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 4: Look now where he's sitting, it's a different kettle of

329
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 4: fish if you take him now.

330
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 3: Now he's moved into the second round.

331
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 4: Some pressures off, a lot of pressures off, and he

332
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 4: and a lot of pressures off.

333
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 3: And maybe if he's got the right makeup. I've never

334
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 3: met I've never met the kid, so I don't know.

335
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 4: But these these teams that have vetted him know that

336
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 4: if he has just come, you know, this is a

337
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 4: wake up call with a little chip on his shoulder.

338
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 4: Because he's got physical ability he's got physical ability.

339
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,439
Speaker 3: Let's let's not overlook that.

340
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: Hey, Titans fans, it's hard to decide what's the best

341
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: part of a dunk and run. Is it coffee or

342
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: the one dollar classic donut or the two dollars stuff

343
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,719
Speaker 1: bagel Midi's or the three dollars sausage, egg and cheese

344
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: that you're gonna add to that coffee, or the fact

345
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: that you get to leave the office. The answer is,

346
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 1: of course yes, time for a dunkin run. Good deals

347
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: on food for one, two or three dollars with a

348
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: medium or larger coffee. Titans scheduled to pick tenth in

349
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: the second round tomorrow night. RTT Bryan a lot of

350
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: potential choices. Maybe you trade up and get one of

351
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks positions that still have a lot of great depth.

352
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: Give me one right now. I'm gonna ask coach and

353
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: Ramon to also do the same.

354
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 6: Well, I'm gonna go with something that I think is

355
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 6: pivotal to help Chicka Konquo, who was here tonight at

356
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 6: this party. And that's a tight end in this thing.

357
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 6: And you've got good lord, you've got the whole I mean,

358
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 6: Dalton Kincaid, I think was the only one taken right,

359
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 6: So you got Mike Mayer from Notre Dame, you have

360
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 6: Luke Musgrave, you have Darnel Washington, Tucker Craft, Sam Laporta,

361
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 6: Luke Schoonmaker. You could wait and get into the third

362
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 6: round if you'd like, who's a really nice player from Michigan.

363
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 6: That would be where I would point to though, at

364
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 6: forty one or at seventy two.

365
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with the tight end.

366
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 4: And also there's some interior offensive lineman now that have

367
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 4: not been picked. You know, you're looking at Osiris Torrance,

368
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 4: Steve Avila from TCU, Cody Mount from North Dakota State,

369
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 4: Joe Tipman from Wisconsin. I like him as a center,

370
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 4: I really do so that to me, those are two

371
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 4: areas that you can look at. And plus guys, just

372
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 4: because of the numbers, they are still some edgdrushers out there.

373
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 4: And guess what else is still out there?

374
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 3: Corners corner.

375
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 5: Yes, corners is one of those positions. Also, Joey Porter

376
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 5: Junior is still out there. But I arrive with Coach

377
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 5: mcenrad on this one too.

378
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 1: Man.

379
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 5: The interior sided offensive line is specifically when you're drafting

380
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 5: at center and at guard. Cody Molk still out there,

381
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 5: Steve Avilla is still out there. Osire's Torrance is still

382
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 5: out there, supposed to be a first round draft pick himself.

383
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 5: Joe Tipman like him also, and John Michael Schmidt's loved

384
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 5: him at the Senior Bowl. Remember the conversation around him.

385
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 5: There is a lot of good quality in the second

386
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 5: and third round for this draft of interior when it

387
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 5: comes down to the draft.

388
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: By the way, twelve five stars taken tonight. So people

389
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,879
