1
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: Least. He's The Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 1: on Home of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

3
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I'm Dale Lolly here with

4
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: Matt Williamson and his mock draft time. Let's mark it

5
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: up here. We're using the Pro Football Network dot COM's

6
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 1: mock draft simulator. Wednesday. We won't Wednesday, we will Wednesday.

7
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: We get a special guest coming. I just wanted to

8
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: tease that a little bit. There you go, Anye, Yeah,

9
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 1: he's been a frequent contributor to the show. He has been,

10
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: but he will actually be on a with us live. Uh.

11
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: So we're running the uh, the mock drafter here. We

12
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: have two trade offers. Twenty four is up here, just

13
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,919
Speaker 1: to give you an idea of what has happened ahead

14
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: of our draft pick here. Uh, the last five picks

15
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: before our draft nine team was Elijah Vera Tucker twenty

16
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: to Chicago was Nauja Harris. Huh that that's a bad

17
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: pick by Chicago. Twenty one Azizilari out of Georgia to

18
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: the Colts. That's very possible. Twenty two Rashod Bateman to Tennessee.

19
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: You can see that Davis probably won't be back twenty

20
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: three Travis a t N to the Jets, that's a possibility.

21
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a nice, young quarterback, friendly option. So

22
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: here's what we got. The top guys available. Christian Barmore,

23
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: Samuel Cosmi, Melon Fanu, the cornerback out of Syracuse, Jalen Mayfield,

24
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: Nick Bolton, Joseph Aside, Trevor Moring, Tevin Jenkins, Mac Jones

25
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: still available. UM, three or four of those tackles. I like.

26
00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: I like three or four of those tackles. What I

27
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: don't like is the fact that the two running backs

28
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: on him already gone. Right, And I sent you this

29
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: the other night. I was playing around with this over

30
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: the weekend, and I'm really warming up to the idea.

31
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: I like, first of all, when we did our our

32
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: triple take, I have Javonte Williams as my number two

33
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: back ahead of a t N. And not to speak

34
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: for you, but that's not for the Steelers. That's just

35
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: in a that's just in a nutshell. I think I

36
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: think he's a star. I think he's I think you

37
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: like him more than me, and you like him more.

38
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: Here's my problem with four the Night. Here's my problem

39
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: with a t N fumbles. Yes, I don't think he's

40
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: in every down back. I think I think he's more

41
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara than he is, and he's not as good

42
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: as Alvin kamaras. And so I have Williams rated. I

43
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: think Williams isn't every down back in the NFL. One

44
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: thing I just want to throw out there that we

45
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: haven't talked about enough with Williams. He's great in protection.

46
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: You and I have talked about that, and he's twenty

47
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: years old, and he's young and doesn't have anywhere and

48
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: tear and yeah, I mean I don't know that he's

49
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: He's not the home run threat that a t N

50
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 1: is and Harris isn't either, just doesn't is not a

51
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: breakaway guy. But I mean, all I know is when

52
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: I turn on tape of of Javonte Williams, I see

53
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 1: him breaking off runs. Yeah he doesn't. He runs if

54
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: he's in if he's in your secondary, you've got problems

55
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: because he's gonna run some guys over. He is. His

56
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: contact balance is phenomenal, Like David Montgomery. He hits guys

57
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: and just knocks them out like he really pinballs. And

58
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: he's not little at all. I mean, he's not tall,

59
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: but he's he's five ten two pounds, like you try

60
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: to hit that. I mean, that's we agree on all

61
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: those things. I just don't know if I can take

62
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: him with four. Okay, well, we've got guess what we've

63
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: got trade offers. But before we even discussed the trade offers,

64
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: to your point, two were already gone. Two were already gone.

65
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: There's a bunch, there's a bunch of tackles still available.

66
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 1: Tackles available. We got conference, we got offers right now.

67
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: But if we go into this thing, we want to

68
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: get in every down starting running back, most two are gone,

69
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: two are gone, and we only think there's three. There

70
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: may only be two, and there might only be two.

71
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: I think there are only two. I mean a really

72
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: good player, but he's not every down starting running back.

73
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: There's two in this draft. Here's our trade offers. Arizona

74
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: is offering us pick thirty two and Tampa Bay's second

75
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: round draft pick. Why does Arizona number thirty two? I

76
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: guess they made a trade earlier or whatever, but never run.

77
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense. It's Tampa trade. Maybe it

78
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: is Tampa. It must be. It's gotta be. They got

79
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,799
Speaker 1: the wrong thing up there. But it's pick thirty two

80
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: in Tampa Bay's second round draft picks. They're offering us

81
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: their first yes year, their second next year four pick.

82
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a late second. How about this one?

83
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: I don't like that one. The Jets are offering pick

84
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 1: thirty four, Okay, pick sixty six and the second round

85
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: draft pick for picks and eighty seven. I think we

86
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: said yes to that. Let's see if we can. I'm

87
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: gonna first of all, I'm gonna go back and try

88
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: to get a little something. I'm gonna reject. Yeah, I'm

89
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: gonna reject that other deal. I'm gonna counter this one.

90
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: So what else can we get from them? They've got

91
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: thirty four, sixty six, eighty six, one oh seven. What's

92
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: the pick they want from us? They went four and

93
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: eighty seven? What's our pick after eight seven? They won't

94
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: do that. No, what I'm thinking here is what if

95
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: we back off on eighty seven. I don't want to

96
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 1: give up eighty seven. That's what my sticking point is.

97
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to give a pay seven. What if

98
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: we get give them one twenty eight in in the

99
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: next year. Fifth, Yeah, fourth, let's let's try a fifth

100
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: next year because we're gonna get comp picks year. They

101
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: say yes to this, I'm gonna be thrilled. So we're

102
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: gonna we would give up twenty four one in our

103
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: two fifth round draft pick for thirty four sixty six

104
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: and the Jets second round draft pick. I mean, you

105
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: know me, I want that Jet second. Yeah, I mean

106
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: that's gonna be thirty six overall. That was declined. Okay,

107
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: what if we make it a fourth instead of five,

108
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: or we could go with the Jets third, which is

109
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: be a high I went to second. Okay, we try

110
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: to get a quarterback next year? True? True? All right,

111
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: because we're probably gonna get third round compensatory picks next year,

112
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: I know. And if we get the Jets second, well,

113
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: we still moved up. I don't mind giving up my

114
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: fourth year because I'm counting on compics next year. And

115
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: that was declined. Yeah, let me count her again. We're

116
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: gonna don't want to give up that eighties seven or

117
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: whatever you said, but it might What about the what

118
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: about our third round pick next year? Instead? All right,

119
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: they should say yes to that. That was declined. Wow,

120
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: maybe I'm getting to too greedy here, too greedy. All right, well,

121
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: I think we maybe I take the original deal. Let

122
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: me see if I can finangle this a little bit here.

123
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: Giving up our third doesn't make me happy? What if

124
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: we give what if we bump a dot down to

125
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: the four because I want this, I want thirty What

126
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: we'd have then will be thirty four sixty six fifty

127
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: five sixty six seven that I'm whatever, I get to do.

128
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 1: What I think about it. That was really adamant about,

129
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: not about wanting their second, but what if we moved

130
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: down to and we asked for their third and so

131
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: other second. That's what I'm doing, Okay, they should they

132
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: should say yes, that was declined. All right, all right,

133
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: let's see here, that's a pretty big jump. I mean

134
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: we're moving brassom them give up forty spots from their

135
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: original offer. True, what if we go instead of asking

136
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: for eighty six? What if we asked for one oh

137
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: seven instead? Still have an interest in one oh seven?

138
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: If we give up because I want eight seven, yeah,

139
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 1: I'm fine with that, and we're still getting their second

140
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: next year. We still get their second next year. Let's

141
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: see if they say okay, then on live with that.

142
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: That was declined let me throw in, let me throw

143
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: a bain, let me throw in a little sweetener here

144
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: this time. Okay, so we go to we keep eighty seven,

145
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: they give us one oh seven, and we throw in

146
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: the fifth next year or next year. Okay, that was

147
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: the Clinton. Well, let's see if we make it a four.

148
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: I want that deal one oh seven our fourth. I

149
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: might just take the original. Yeah, let me see what

150
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: that was. I don't want to give up eighty seven.

151
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: I don't either, but we may trade down again, not

152
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: from thirty four. We won't. What if we make it

153
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 1: their third next year one oh seven and we give

154
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 1: up one in our fifth? No, that was declined. So

155
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: we just accept the offer. I guess we've we've run

156
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: the tough. They've run the tough. They were not easy

157
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: to negotiate with. All right, we're accepting it. We'll see

158
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: what happens. They're still well. Now we got the Cardinals

159
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: on the phone, the real Cardinals. This time. They're offering

160
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: for thirty four and two fifty three picks forty nine

161
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: and sixty four. I don't think I can do that,

162
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: especially if Williams is available. Yeah, I don't think we

163
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 1: need that. A dude, we do have two offers. Well,

164
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: now the Eagles are offering pick thirty seven in the

165
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,199
Speaker 1: fourth round draft pick for pick thirty four. Okay, I mean,

166
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: I haven't studied the way this draft went, but I

167
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: know the Atlanta is looming and they need a back.

168
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: Atlanta is the next pick. I'm sure that they didn't

169
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: take them back the first time around. I don't know.

170
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. So we want to decline that one

171
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 1: is Williams out there. Williams is out there. I think

172
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: we just take them take him. He used to pick Javante.

173
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: Williams is to pick at thirty four. That's fine. That

174
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,599
Speaker 1: the nutshells great. Now the Falcons are on the phone

175
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: for four years. Yeah, good shape, and he's twenty years old.

176
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: Maybe you'll extend him. Who knows, they will come to

177
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: that bridge later. We have two trade offers here were

178
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: fifty five. Um, the Falcons are offering sixty eight and

179
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: the third round draft pick for picks fifty five and

180
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: to fifty three. It's okay, I don't love it. I

181
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: don't love it. Um, Kansas City's on the phone and

182
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: they want pick fifty five and pick one for pick

183
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: sixty two and the third round draft pick. It's okay,

184
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: it's okay, but more I think about no, Yeah, you know, right,

185
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: that doesn't do. Here's what's available. I don't want to

186
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: give up that second pick. Offensive tackles. You've got Alex Leatherwood,

187
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: Liam he might be more guard than tackles. Think fair

188
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: Leam Meikenberg, Dylan, Raddin's, Jackson Carmen Aikenburg, and Rattens. I

189
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: think I take Radon. I think I take Rattin's to

190
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: uh the center position. You got Creed Humphrey, Josh Meyers,

191
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: Quinn Miners. Good. I'm glad there's that many available. I

192
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: would still take the tame would too. Yeah, he's a

193
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: great guy to be sit on the bench for a

194
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: year some extra end right, yeah, future left tackle. I

195
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: think it would be real happy with Williams and Rattin's

196
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: is our first two picks, and we might have gone,

197
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: we might have flip flopped that had the running backs

198
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: not gone. Oh yeah, I'm happy with that. If they

199
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: took Radins, I'd understand and I wouldn't be critical. Yeah, alright,

200
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 1: so Raddon's is the pick. Now we're back up at

201
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: sixty six. This is the benefit of making that trade

202
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: and we got to the two biggest needs are filled.

203
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 1: The Chiefs, however, are on the phone again. They're offering

204
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: pick seventy three and pick one thirteam and this is

205
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: sixty six, where it's sixty six seventy three one third

206
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: team for pick sixty six and four. However, I was

207
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: born on six six, muse sixty six and Deante Johnson

208
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: was a sixty six pick. This is a lucky spot.

209
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 1: This is a lucky spot. The Bengals are on the

210
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: phone as well. They want to offer us pick sixty

211
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: nine and pick one fifty for pick sixty sixty nine

212
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: is a good spot too. I'm going to reject that.

213
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: I'm going to reject that because it's a division team

214
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,959
Speaker 1: seventy three and one thirteam for pick six one. I'm

215
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: kind of interested, intriguing. I want to see what's available, though,

216
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: if there's somebody that there's not if there's someone just

217
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 1: stands out, but there's not a position that we was

218
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,439
Speaker 1: jumping off so here, Well, I mean, if I could

219
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: get one of those inside linebackers here, make my defense

220
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: a lot faster. Uh So, the guys available, Carlos Basham,

221
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: Davian Nixon, Deante Brown, I'm not interested in any of

222
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: those guys. Dylan Moses, he scares me a little. Pete Werner,

223
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: I like Warren. I think Warner Moses Brill Cox, I

224
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: think Cox were both of them. Um, Josh Meyers available, Uh,

225
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: Tommy Togy, I would make a defense a little bit better.

226
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: Um time Cox there is. I think taking Jabrille Cox

227
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: is to pick there? Thank you? Well? Can we move

228
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: download to do it? Though? That's the question. There's some

229
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: guys there that like if okay, if we say Werner Cox,

230
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: I'd be happy with either one of those guys. Are

231
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: are the are the six teams in between us and

232
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: seventy three? Are they going to take two of those

233
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 1: inside linebackers off the board? Probably not. If so, then

234
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 1: Myers is there and I'm happy with that. I think

235
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: there's I think there's a nice group of guys, But

236
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: I don't mind moving down six spots to get us

237
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 1: another mid round pick, to get us to move us

238
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: up from one. And now we're getting into that. Yeah

239
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: we're getting a sweet again. Yeah, let's do it. Okay, Well,

240
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: we'll accept that one. Who did they take? They took

241
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: Deante Brown, Davian Nixon went Pete Werner went to the

242
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: Falcons to Meetrick Felton went to the Bengals. That's who

243
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 1: they were trying to trade up to get Jordan's Smith

244
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 1: went to the Eagles, Patrick Jones to the Broncos, Kelvin

245
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: Joseph to Kentucky. Our boy, Jabril Cox is still on there.

246
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: Take him. That worked out great, and now we have

247
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventeen or whatever it was in our

248
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: back pocket. Okay, we're back up again here at one thirteen.

249
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 1: Which to pick. We got the culture on the phone.

250
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: They want to offer us one twenty seven and one

251
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: sixty six. Yeah, I'm not super I'm kind of in

252
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: the mood to add some dudes. Uh damn as well. Um,

253
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: so we're gonna get out of Let's see what's available.

254
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: I would look at receivers in tight ends. Kenny, you

255
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: Boa available? Is the top tight end available? Does not? Uh?

256
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: You got Well, let's let's just look at the tight

257
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: end position. It's been pretty well picked over top guys.

258
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: So you get your Boa, Trey McKitty, Quentin Morris, Nick

259
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: you Banks, probably Moore, Carrie Angeline Klan grantson. That's that's

260
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: not on there. Wide receiver Seth Williams, Shy Smith, Austin Watkins,

261
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: Kay Johnson, Wap Filer. Um, we both like Ky Johnson,

262
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: Das Newsome. There's some I like. I've actually looked at

263
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: some tape of Filer and das Newsome over the weekend.

264
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 1: Those guys fit the bill as well. Um, but there's

265
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: several of them. I don't know if we can. There's

266
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: a bunch there, Uh at the center position, in the center,

267
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: they're gone, Yeah, it's Trey Hill, Drake Jackson, Jimmy Morrissey,

268
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: Michael Mne guys in that nature. Um, how about a

269
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: corner how about a secondary dude, Well, you got here,

270
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: here's some other guy at the guard position. Do you

271
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: think and one of these guards can maybe play some

272
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: center for you at some Ben Cleveland, Royce Newman, Aaron Banks,

273
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: David Moore, Kendrick Green. Kendrick Green's a guy that you

274
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: know in that center right. He played center Illinois, played

275
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: center and guard. He's got some snap to him. He's

276
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: a nice developmental player. UM, I wouldn't have any problem

277
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: with that. Let's take a look at the cornerback position.

278
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: Keith Taylor out of Washington, Trull Williams, out of Syracuse,

279
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: Robert Rochelle at a Central Arkansas where Darius Williams, Paulson, Nadebo,

280
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: Benjamin st Just Cameron buying him, dermamad or Ladore. There's

281
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: a couple of names on there, and we brought him

282
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: up a lot in our mom box, but a debo

283
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: from Stanford. The more I think about him, I think

284
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: that's a risk worth taken. I mean, he was highly

285
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: productive interception guy with smarts and length and we just

286
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: haven't seen him playing so long, you know that, But

287
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: do we really care about that? If he's Joe Hayden's

288
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: replacement a year from now or two years from now.

289
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: Like I'm interested in him, but the question is do

290
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: they think that they have that guy on the roster? Now?

291
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: That's the It depends you think, Lane and I think

292
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: but another corner has never a bad idea. But he's

293
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: an outside guy. I mean, he's not a slot. He's

294
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: just somebody. I'm warming up two more to be honest

295
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 1: with you, as this process goes along, the edge is available.

296
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: Victor Demo at a Duke uh Chauncey Gholston out of Iowa,

297
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: Dalen Hayes out of a Notre Dame Shocka, Tony William,

298
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: Bradley Smith. So there's some some guys there, Malcolm Coon

299
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: said of Buffalo defensive tackle, you're looking at Bobby Brown,

300
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: Osa Oggi, Zowa Ogan dais at a Notre Dame cam

301
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 1: sample to Jalen Twie and Marvin Wilson. I'm leading towards

302
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: green interior line. Let's see who they list here? Is

303
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: uh their top available at when you their list is

304
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 1: your boa Adrian Eliot tackle Kellen Mond. It's it's quarterback

305
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 1: Brady Christiansen, the offensive tackle on the b y U

306
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: Seth Williams out of the value for Christiansen. Um, I

307
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: think I'd go with Green talking about building a running game. Okay,

308
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Green. Kendrick Green is to pick,

309
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: and we got another one coming up here at the

310
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: Cowboys are on the boy. The Cowboys are trying to

311
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: bowl us over here. Would now want me a way

312
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: to pick up in a future pick here? Well, they're

313
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: not offering any future picks, but the Cowboys are offering

314
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: for picks and to fifty three, which is our last pick,

315
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: be nice not to pick that. They're offering one on

316
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: the air there after they're offering one. You can make

317
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: that work. Oh yeah, we'll end up atting stuff. You know,

318
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 1: we're only moving back ten spots here. Yeah, I have

319
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 1: just take it. Yeah, I'm gonna accept that one. And

320
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,719
Speaker 1: here we go. So we're back up at one. And

321
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: here's what's any of those receivers floating around. Let's go

322
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: see the top guys, Shy Smith, Kay Johnson, Sage Sharette,

323
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: Das Newsom. Yeah, I'm fine with that. Yeah, I just

324
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: about it. Probably go K Johnson would probably, I would

325
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: go Kay Johnson as well. Take him a lot, right,

326
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: we do, And now we're cruising longer. Okay, we're back

327
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: up at one seventy nine. Yeah, the future picks. But

328
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: that's all right. Did we get we got a second,

329
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 1: we got a jet second, we get the jet second

330
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: round pick? Are you talking about a right? Right? Right?

331
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the defensive side of the

332
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: ball here. We still need to take a cornerback. The

333
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: lineman wouldn't break my heart either. Trey Brown available. That's

334
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: another regular mattin Dale guy. Yeah, all right, I think

335
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: he fits right in your slot. Yeah, I don't even

336
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,959
Speaker 1: we don't even need to talk about it, right, I

337
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: think he is Steeler written all over him. We're back

338
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: up again. This is the now we can Now we

339
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 1: can double down and take that cornerback position. If we

340
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: want a long one, a long one, you've got Shakier Brown,

341
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: Darren Hall, Elijah Griffin at a USC, Brian Mills at

342
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 1: a North Carolina Central, Sean Jolly out of Appalachian State.

343
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 1: Any of those guys. I say, Mills is kind of intriguing.

344
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: He's a six one is guy? Right? Yeah, I don't care.

345
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: He's from a small school. I probably won't have him

346
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: active on game day unless he's awesome on special teams,

347
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 1: develop them, you know, kind of like a Taylor pick. Yeah.

348
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: At the edge, you got Ellerson Smith out of Northern Iowa,

349
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: Joshua Kaneo out of Florida State, Chris Rump, Jonathan Cooper,

350
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: Malik carring White, Hubert turn Jackson, Patrick Johnson out of Tulane.

351
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 1: I really like rom If, I just don't know how

352
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: he's too small. Yeah, I mean I think he's a

353
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,719
Speaker 1: really good player. Though. Defensive tackle is Jordan's Scott Lebrin

354
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: a Mustafa Johnson take one, Graham, Charris Tonga, Lorenzo Neil.

355
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: Would you consider a guy like Ray. We're nine four here.

356
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: I think you know you're kind of looking to add

357
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: that list real quick. Here at the tight end position,

358
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: Braley Moore, Carrie Angeline, kyl and Granson, Noah Gray, Josh

359
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 1: Bates or John Bates, Um, Tony Poljan, Luke Ferrell. Look

360
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,400
Speaker 1: at those. I was actually watching Poljan the other day.

361
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: He doesn't move real well, but he's big. Yeah, he's okay.

362
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: He's a two sixty five guy that can walk. And yeah,

363
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: none of those guys blow me, blow me away. But

364
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: do we stick on the defensive side of the ball

365
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: a corner. Let's double down to the cornerback you want there,

366
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: I'll take. Let's take the small school dude and see central. Yeah,

367
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: Brian Mills is the pick. We've taken him a couple

368
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: of times. Now I think he fits because you don't

369
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: need him this year. Just let him, let him. We're

370
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: back up again at seventeen. Yeah, now edge, Jonathan Cooper,

371
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: Mallikarring Whining, Huber, Why Hubert Tarren Jackson, Patrick Johnson, Isaiah

372
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 1: louder Milk at a Whiskers Cooper Cooper with to me though,

373
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: I like the player. Where's the production though? Yeah? I

374
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: know that's the problem. I'm sure he was a pretty

375
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,959
Speaker 1: good recruit and uh well I haven't seen his athletic

376
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: testing obviously, but Karen doesn't fit. Hubert fits. He had

377
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: production this year. Where's he from Kansas State? Ah? Yeah,

378
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: he's not bad you're talking about now, Yeah, that'd be fine,

379
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: he's good. I like Patrick Johnson out of Tulane as well.

380
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 1: If you want to talk about production, that guy right back,

381
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: one of those two. Let me just take a look

382
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: here at the at the linebacker position. Uh, that's pretty

383
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: well picked over. I mean, were already added Cox, right, yeah,

384
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: but you can if you could use to, you could

385
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 1: play special teams for you. I mean, yea defensive tackle

386
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: you're looking at. Do you take one of those guys

387
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: here in Lebron Ray still on the board here, that's

388
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: interesting stuff at Johnson, take one Graham, Chris Tonga learns

389
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: O'Neil he's actually Lorenzo O'Neil's kid. Field fullback. Yeah yeah, yeah,

390
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: that was good that there's always a fullback d tackle correlation.

391
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: That was a blockhead. Yeah. Um, I kind of like

392
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: the edge dude out of two lane. Let's take Patrick

393
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 1: Johnson there and we get another pick a two twenty five,

394
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: and we're just picking left and right. Now we might

395
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 1: take a look at the tackle wouldn't hurt? D tackle

396
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't hurt. But that's seen a lot of bodies to camp.

397
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: I like this, Yeah, um, tight end. You got Carrie Angeline,

398
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: Noah Gray, John Bates, Mett Bushman, pro Wells, Tony Pulgian,

399
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 1: Luke Farrell, Miller, Forrestall out of Alabama, Hunter camp Meyer

400
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: out of Oregon. We don't have this luxury. But what

401
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: if we all resigned Tyler Croft or Jesse James or

402
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: somebody like that, then probably aren't going there. Probably not

403
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: that need, that big need. But if we haven't, probably

404
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: we should. But are they gonna help you? Yeah? And

405
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: what what help are those guys this year? And not

406
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 1: much a safety? We could double down on the from

407
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: Oklahoma guys and take Trey Norwood. I'm fine with the

408
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: safety that has special team skills. I think we don't

409
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: take a safety often enough when we get a lot

410
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: of picks. Yeah, I mean they did just take one

411
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: last year. And Brooks, I mean, you know, if he's

412
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: making the team, I mean like he's fine. I'm have

413
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: many problems with the guy, but he hasn't lit it

414
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 1: up or anything. Let's take well, we'll take the Oklahoma

415
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: boys and they can together, room together. Alrighty Norwood's pick.

416
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: And I believe we got one pick left here, and

417
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: you want to make that a tight end. All those

418
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: guys are still available. We want defensive tackle Uht Daryl

419
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 1: Slayton available, Quentin Bohannon, Austin Fayello, Kenneth Randall, Ni Kwan Johns. No,

420
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: those guys really do much for I don't say any

421
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: of those names are jumping out at me. So you

422
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: want to go tight end, Yeah, add another one in

423
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: the mix. So you get Matt Bushman for Wells, Tony Pulgian,

424
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: Luke Farrell Miller Forrestall, Hunter camp Meyer, um Fuljian's fresh

425
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: on my mind, he's big, fine with that. But if

426
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: there's one you like, take him. Well, let's stay pulg

427
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: in in this. We haven't yet okay and boom, we're done.

428
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: So we did uh dressed like every position, but the tackle,

429
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, we've filled the We checked off all

430
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: the down and so our first pick at thirty four

431
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: was Javonte Williams. Then we took Dylan Raddin's took your broll.

432
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,400
Speaker 1: Cox at seventy three, he's the bonus prize, Kendrick Green

433
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 1: at one thirteen, k Johnson at one thirty eight, Trey

434
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: Brown at one seventy nine, Brian Mills. Then we took

435
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: Johnson out outside linebacker. Uh and then we took Pulsi

436
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: in the tight end. Nice. Couple of guys are counting

437
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: on for this year or would be running back on

438
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: the linebacker. But the rest Johnson will play a little

439
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 1: bit for you, I would imagine, Um, yeah, Johnson wuld

440
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: probably play for you a little bit. But most of

441
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 1: those guys are four another day. A lot of special

442
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: teams help, but those those top three guys are you know,

443
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Williams, Radden's and Cox, they're gonna help you

444
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: need additions maybe, you know. I like that speed at

445
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: the second level on defense too, makes you a much

446
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 1: better differ. Yeah, it kind of makes up for not

447
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: for the loss of Bud directly, but help you something.

448
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: And he's a good blitzer too. He's a good blitzer

449
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: that covers a lot of ground, be fast on defense. No,

450
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: I like it. I think we did well. Yeah, I

451
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 1: like it. Draft a lot um don knows that's my

452
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: favorite one that we've done, but it's pretty high on

453
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: the list, pretty high. Yeah, we should make some rules

454
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: going forward, you know, like this one. We should say

455
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: we're not allowed to trade out of twenty four. You know,

456
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: there's no one to tango, you know, like something like

457
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: that to come forward or open ideas if somebody wants

458
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: to say you have to do this or you have

459
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 1: to do that, or this guy you couldn't sign a

460
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: tight end or a center or whatever. Let's talk about

461
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 1: you said you mentioned you didn't like taking Javonte Williams

462
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: at twenty four. Those two backs go ahead of him.

463
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 1: I know, then it gets Harry. If you don't take

464
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: him at twenty four, you probably don't get him. Get him,

465
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: I mean, assume you don't trade down. I'm I'm of

466
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: the belief to that, even if if a t N

467
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:25,399
Speaker 1: is still available. Do you think if Harris goes, I

468
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: like Williams enough that I would take him at twenty four.

469
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: I'm on the fence about that because here's the thing,

470
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: because I knew we're gonna go on this road, Picks

471
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: fifteen to fifty aren't that much different. There's no difference

472
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: in the grades. So if you like tackles verse running backs,

473
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: there is and we just got we just got Dylan

474
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: rat Is a fifty five because the tackle position is

475
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 1: so deep. That's what screws up my normal, you know,

476
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: like like this is this is a year where you

477
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: can wait to take it? Like, is there is there

478
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 1: a big difference between Dylan Raddin's and those guys that

479
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 1: would have been available, like Jayleen Mayfield to me, not

480
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 1: really Jaylen Mayfields played and I like him. He's played

481
00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: in fifteen career games, right, Like is that light year

482
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: is better? And that guy's not even started this year? Right?

483
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, this year doesn't qualify. But mostly I

484
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: mean it's hard for me to d program and say,

485
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: but we can get J. K. Dobbins or Acres in

486
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: the second round, or you know, there's the guy, the

487
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: guy who the jetstock we've made the trade with the Jets.

488
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: The Jets took Samuel cost me. Is there is there

489
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: a big enough difference between cos me in Ratten's to say,

490
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: well we can we'll take a lesser running back in

491
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: the second and rat So maybe it's caused me Verse

492
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 1: Carmen or somebody like they don't like quite as mine

493
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: or you know, one of those types of who else

494
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: was available? And uh the Notre Dame guys. Uh, Leatherwood

495
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: was there, Eikenberg was. But five of them are going

496
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: to be there in the second round. That's the thing.

497
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,719
Speaker 1: I mean, it almost happen. I mean, if you'll, if

498
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,880
Speaker 1: you like Javonte Williams, you take him with twenty four.

499
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: It's gonna take a little convincing because I'm programmed not

500
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,359
Speaker 1: too and this shouldn't matter, and it doesn't matter, but

501
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 1: the Mels and Todds will kill you for it. Again,

502
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: I don't care at all. Does he make you a

503
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: better team? Without question? Absolutely? I mean he's been really

504
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 1: weak there Is he that good of a prospect? Though?

505
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: My worry is see I I take care, don't look

506
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: at the first round? Is the first round? Look at

507
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: the first round? The first fifteen picks of the first round.

508
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: The next picks are round two. No, you're right, that's

509
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,719
Speaker 1: the way that The only differences is that fift year

510
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: option from picks fifteen thirty two. And I can live

511
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: with that. If he's if he's that good, if if

512
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 1: you think he's he can be a pro Bowl guy,

513
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: I can live with that. That's what I'm not sure about.

514
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: Am I sure that he's my second favorite Steeler back?

515
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: Am I sure that I want him? Yes? Yes? Am

516
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: I sure that he's a top ten NFL back? I'm

517
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: not sure that yet. I don't know that he has

518
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: to be top ten though Pro Bowl in his fude

519
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: better than Connor ever was? Um, well, I think he's

520
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: better than Connor Ever was. Yeah. I mean I think

521
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: so too, but I think he has need to be.

522
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 1: Connor made the Pro Bowl, So there you go. I mean,

523
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a real plus at the position. I

524
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: think I think he is. I think I think he's special. Okay,

525
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean I special is a big word. I think

526
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: I think he fits what they want to do very

527
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: well too. I think he can. I love the kid. Yeah,

528
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 1: he's my He's my draft crush. If you were to

529
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: bet right now who the Steeler's first pick is, you

530
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 1: think would be him if I were to bet on it,

531
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: Probably not, because you get to pick one player. I mean,

532
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: I think they'll take Harris ahead of him. I don't

533
00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: have Harry still be there. I think Harris could still

534
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 1: be there. That's a possibility, and that's that's the that's

535
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 1: why I'm not willing to say, Okay, I'm gonna you know,

536
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 1: here's a hundred dollars, I'm gonna lay down. But if

537
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: Harris is gone, I got no problem taking him. It's

538
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: twenty four. Like you think there's a big difference between

539
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: Harris and Williams. I don't think it's huge. I don't

540
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: think it's huge. But I think there's a difference. I

541
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 1: think there's a there's a difference in I don't even

542
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: know that it's huge. I think it's all around more talented.

543
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: I think it's close. I think it's closed. I think

544
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,040
Speaker 1: it's I put it this way, I think there's a

545
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 1: there's a much bigger gap between those two guys and

546
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: the number four running back and there it's Michael Carter.

547
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: Then there is between the number four or five offensive

548
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: tackle and the number twelve offensive tackles, and that that

549
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: to me, is the difference here, right, because I'm not

550
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: taking a center at twenty four, So it's to me

551
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: it comes down to the offensive tackle or running back,

552
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: because you want to make your running game better, and

553
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 1: the tackle doesn't necessarily make your running game better. Well,

554
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 1: not if I have to take not there's snow in

555
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: the second round that can end the ball, to which

556
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: there won't be. But the second round is a nice

557
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: sweet spot to take. Okay, you you miss out on

558
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: all the tackles, well, then you take the center. Yeah, yeah,

559
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: there'll be alignment there. Yeah, and I think there'll be

560
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: a tackle there. I mean, I think we both agree

561
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: the first two picks go better running back line than

562
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: line question mark, right, you know, because there have been

563
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: there's been lots of times where we've done these simulations

564
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: and the running backs of those top three running backs

565
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: are gone. And I'm not even interested in a ten right,

566
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: all right, I mean, slim chance Williams gets the second round.

567
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 1: I think it's real slim, the slimmer the more we

568
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: get here. Absolutely, I'm curious what his roaday looks like,

569
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 1: to which you could hurt that even more. Yeah, if

570
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: he runs, you know, he runs four or five two,

571
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: he's under four six. I mean, it's his stock is

572
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: not gonna drop. Yeah, there are some running back needy teams.

573
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean it makes more sense when you build the

574
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: draft to get one of those two backs. And I

575
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: know some Steeler fans would look at that and well

576
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: you you overdrafted him. Well if you start looking at

577
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: like Daniel Jeremiah last week had him ranked thirty second.

578
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: MM it wasn't He's creeping up the boards there and

579
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: there's again no difference between the guy at twenty four

580
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: and the guy at And I urge you guys that

581
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: are saying don't take a running back, don't take him

582
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: take the tackle. Come on YouTube, Davante Williams. It's pretty fun.

583
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: You will enjoy it. He would be the yeah immediately

584
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: and become the most popular Steeler. And he's a lot

585
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: of upside in the receiving game. He's already great in protection.

586
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: There's not much wear into their high character guy, you know. Yeah,

587
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: And besides derrisaw, who I don't think he'll be there.

588
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: I'm not sure there's a tackle that if Derris Saw

589
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 1: is there, then that then they're taken right and I

590
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: don't think he'll be there. But I don't think, yeah,

591
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: he's a true left tackle. These other guys, I don't

592
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: know if they are. And we talked trade down all

593
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: the time, and that makes perfect sense, but that's far

594
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: from it. It's not always on the table, especially in reality.

595
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: In right right, right, interesting, I'm over to the dark side.

596
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: Matt come over to the dark side. I'm leaning that way.

597
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: I mean, just because I think your your draft construction

598
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: is better Williams. Then something as opposed to no back

599
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:31,000
