00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to Monday edition of Texans All Access. I am

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: your host, John Harris, Football Analysts, I love reporter for

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: your Houston Texans and joined by the voice of the

4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: I almost said Miami Hurricanes. But the voice the Miami Hurricanes.

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: He is the voice of the the Houston Texans. It's Mark Vanimer. Mark,

6
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: how are you doing? It was good to see your people.

7
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: It was good to see my people, Johnny. Not good

8
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 1: to see the Hurricanes lose. I hate Yukon like poison.

9
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: Listen the Yukon Huskies. I mentioned this. They are like

10
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: the Colts to me at a college level. So I

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: am rooting hard for San Diego State tonight. In fact,

12
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 1: I just saw the head coach earlier today after the

13
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: shoot around in the hallway service level. I said, good luck, coach.

14
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: He said, oh, thank you very much. I said, I

15
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,479
Speaker 1: hate you Kon like poison. Please win. I left that

16
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: part out. Actually, but how about this. You know we

17
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: see him on the thirty for thirty with the Fab five.

18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: He's so familiar, and here he is coaching in a

19
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: national championship game. Okay, I got a story for you.

20
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: So one of my best friends, the guy I was

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: the best friend of my best band of my wedding,

22
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: Andy Crook. He was a freshman at Brown with me

23
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety and he went to Brown for one

24
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: year and then an inter Mirrow basketball game with me

25
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: and then three other guys were went in the game,

26
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 1: and instead of going up and dunking it, he did

27
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: the smart basketball thing. It started to peel out, and

28
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: as he peeled out on the through on the past

29
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: I gave to him, he tores ACL and so his

30
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: parents were like, all right, you know, I don't know

31
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: we can afford both ACL surgery and going to Brown.

32
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: So at that point he ended up going to Saint

33
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: John's I Minnesota. And so we were talking one day

34
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: and we went to the Final four ninety three together

35
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: and he goes, hey, by the way, did you know

36
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: that Brian Dutcher I was his first NCUAA violation. And

37
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: I was like, what are you talking about? He goes yeah,

38
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: he goes, I was visiting campus. And he wasn't going

39
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: to go to Michigan, he said, but he was visiting campus.

40
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: And they went and visited Dutcher, and Dutcher gave him

41
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: like a sweatshirt, and they found out it ended up

42
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: being a violation at the time. Yeah, sweatshirt. So Brian

43
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: Dutcher had an NC double a regular violation with my

44
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: buddy giving him a sweatshirt. So every time we would

45
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: see the Fat five, you would remind me of that.

46
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: But Brian Dutcher is featured heavily on that documentary too.

47
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: If you haven't seen that, you definitely need to see

48
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 1: that as well. So Syndeo State taken on Yukon tonight.

49
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: Ukon has been playing extremely well. It's gonna be very

50
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: difficult for Syenego State to do it. But I think

51
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: I'm pulled for the Aztecs like you, Mark, I want

52
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: to see the Astecs pulled the upset, but hopefully get

53
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: a good ball game. And by the way, I'm not

54
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 1: really sure how the ncable a seating would argue this,

55
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 1: but how was Yukon a four seed? Somebody needs to

56
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: go back and look at the seating because that is

57
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 1: just not very good at all. Whatsoever does the seating

58
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,519
Speaker 1: even matter? By the way, Johnny, before we get into

59
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: the football, the Texans cuisine of tonight's program, a couple

60
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: of programming notes here, because we all watch television over

61
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: the weekend, sports television and a few notes. One of

62
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: them major League Baseball, Congratulations. I love the pitch clock.

63
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: I think it's fantastic. I had my doubts about how

64
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: it would go. Yes, I wanted to speed up the game,

65
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: but I thought, oh, it's baseball, this is gonna be touchy.

66
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: It is so good. It's so different watching a game

67
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: with this the pace. You can just feel the rhythm

68
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: of it. The tempo is so much better. And you know,

69
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: I hate watching the Astros lose games, but the game

70
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: is so much more watchable with the quickened pace. That

71
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: and women's basketball, congratulations. People are talking about you in

72
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: a big, big way. I know it's not the way

73
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: maybe you want it to go down, but my gosh,

74
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 1: there's no such thing as bad publicity, as my friend

75
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: John Lopez says, spell the name right. That's all you

76
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: have to worry about. They've gotten a ton of pub

77
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: a ton of viewers. So congrats to women's basketball. Yeah,

78
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: congrats lsu Kaylyn Clark is unbelievable. She must watch television.

79
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: I mean, that game against South Carolina is just it was.

80
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: It was incredible. It was absolutely incredible. And that I'm

81
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: I've been a huge women's basketball college basketball fan for

82
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 1: a long long time. I used to go to every

83
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: single game at Brown, and I knew those girls that

84
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: were playing, the women that were playing, and I knew

85
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: that pretty well, and I used to play against them

86
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: in the off season. We would play pick up and

87
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: they I mean, I used to think I was pretty good,

88
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: and then you'd play them and the balls moving and

89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: you're like looking for her and like, oh, she just

90
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: you know, she just made a backdoor cut on you

91
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: for a layup, Like dang it, man. They're just it was.

92
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: They were so good and so I've been a big

93
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: fan for a long time, but watching Caitlin Clark was

94
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: a whole different watch man. She was absolutely un unbelievable,

95
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: and major League Baseball had to do something, and I'm glad.

96
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm glad it did. It might have been drastic, but

97
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: I think drastic is sticking, at least for the fans

98
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: and the people calling the games. I thought Joe Davis

99
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: was pretty interesting. He was talking about it from Fox.

100
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: He was talking about I don't think I've ever wanted

101
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: to say more at a baseball game. So this pitch

102
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: clock thing is actually really really good for all of us.

103
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: And he keeps us moving. It keeps us going, and

104
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: I like that for sure. All right, let's get to

105
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: the football part of our program. We are gonna have

106
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: a trunk candid program today because the final four tonight

107
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: SO Sports Radio six ten CBS Sports West one will

108
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: take over at six thirty at the bottom of the hour,

109
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: so we gotta go. We're gonna play how many sizzle fires. Now,

110
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: if you've been with us before, you know, well anybody

111
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: who talks to the radio can drop a hot taker

112
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: three every now and again. And so we have come

113
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: up with a rating system that we call sizzle fires.

114
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: How many sizzle fires. The hot of the take, the

115
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 1: higher number of sizzle fires. So if I were to

116
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: say the Indianapolis Colts are gonna go owen seventeen, Mark

117
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: would say that is a one sizzle fire that's absolutely

118
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: gonna happen. If I were to say that Bryce Young

119
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: is gonna throw for eight thousand yards and eighty touchdowns,

120
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: that it's probably a five sizzle fire, even though I

121
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: think he's gonna have a good year. So you guys

122
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: all know the rules. Now. These are all going to

123
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: be in reference to the draft picks, where the Texans

124
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: are two, twelve and thirty three. So here we go,

125
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: Mark rate this hot take on the Sizzle Fire rating system,

126
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: and number two, the Texans will not take a quarterback

127
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: and we'll take Will Anderson Junior. Oh, all right, Will

128
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: Anderson Junior is the likely pick. You're saying if they

129
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,239
Speaker 1: don't take a quarterback, because what about jail and Carter

130
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: who insists he's going in the top ten. I don't

131
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: need to visit anybody who doesn't have a top ten

132
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: pick because I'm going in the top ten. And Drew

133
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: Rosenhouse is my agent. Yeah, that's my that's the take.

134
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 1: Will Anderson Junior will be the picket two and not

135
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: a quarterback. Okay, I'm gonna go that's a three and

136
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 1: a half Sizzle Fire. Okay, all right, all right, And

137
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: I might even I might even squelch it down to

138
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: about three because I don't think it's out of the

139
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: realm of possibility that they do not take a quarterback

140
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: in number two. Here, Johnny, maybe they've done extensive research

141
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: and decide, you know what, we're not gonna take a second. Wait, Mark,

142
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 1: there's breaking news. What's that? Oh, we've got ten cars

143
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: going off of fifty nine when they're not going to

144
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: draft the quarterback. I didn't say that, I did. I

145
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: just said it's not out of the realm possibility, meaning, look,

146
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: they could take one at twelve, they could move up

147
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: from twelve to whatever. Maybe what about this? Wouldn't this

148
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: be wild if the day of the draft they move

149
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: up from twelve to eight or seven, whatever it's gonna be,

150
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: and they keep the second pick, and everybody's thinking, all right,

151
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: they're definitely not taking a quarterback in a two. What

152
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: are they gonna do now? Now we've got to go

153
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: make a deal with somebody else to jump up and

154
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: take whoever Bryce or CJ. Strout is going to be

155
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: available after the Carolina Panther's pick. Johnny, I think that

156
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: it's possible. I think it's unlikely. So I'll give it

157
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: a three three and a half sizzle fire take. Okay, rating?

158
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: All right, here we go stick with pick number two.

159
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:58,239
Speaker 1: The Houston Texans will select either CJ. Shot or Bryce Young,

160
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: the quarterback that the Panthers do not take. What does

161
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: the hot take assessment of just simply taking the one

162
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: the Panthers don't take. Oh, that's a half sizzle fire.

163
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: That's no, sizzle fire, that's cold. I just thought, after

164
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: the way you answered the first one that maybe there

165
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: was something that I don't know. I thought. I thought

166
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: i'd throw it out there. Okay, look at it this way.

167
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: I always put it this way. If you had to

168
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: bet your house that they were going to take a

169
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: position at two, wouldn't you bet that house? You have to? Yeah,

170
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: you bet the house they're taking a quarterback over not

171
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: taking a quarterback. Yeah, so you're leaning into the quarterback

172
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: take here big and sure there's a possibility it doesn't happen,

173
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: but you would say more likely to happen to Blendon

174
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: segments here. Okay, at pick number twelve A, the Texans

175
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: stay at twelve and they pick offensive linemen Paris Johnson

176
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: Junior from Ohio State. How hot is that sizzle fire?

177
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: That's extremely hot? That's about a four maybe four and

178
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: a half. Because where do you have him in the

179
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: Harris one hundred? Is he's a top twenty guy in

180
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: most people's top one hundred ratings, but he's not twelve

181
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: worthy according to most of the pundits. Right, so he's

182
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: in that range. He's in that range. Okay for me?

183
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: Is if he's starting for me. If you're top twenty,

184
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: you're twelve worthy. So you know a lot of people thought,

185
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: well did they go did they take Kenyan Green too high? Look? Whatever,

186
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: if you like a guy in the first round, especially

187
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: once you get into the teens, it is what it is.

188
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: But I would say a tackle, especially would be a

189
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: little bit of a hot take here, because you know,

190
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: you have some tackles on the roster. Okay, you have

191
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: tight as you have Laramie. Are you really going to

192
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: take a tackle with number twelve or is there a

193
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: deal that's going to be made? I would say that's

194
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 1: a pretty hot take, Johnny. But what if I told

195
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: you that Paris Johnson Junior played guard in twenty twenty

196
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: one and actually might be a better guard than he

197
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: is a tackle. Well you would know that, wouldn't you.

198
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: And maybe they would know that, and maybe they would say, look,

199
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna use him a guard on the other side,

200
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: But we just drafted a guard last year. So I'm

201
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: gonna say it's too hot to take. I'm kind of

202
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: burning up from this one, Okay, all right, four to

203
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: four and a half. I got you. I just wanted

204
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: to see if I could get you to bite, I

205
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: got a few four you on the other side, is

206
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: there a receiver at twelve year interested in or just

207
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: any receiver that next a Texans All Access looking back

208
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: this money at issue of Texans All Access John Harris

209
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: alongside Mark Vandomir, the Voice of the Texans, and we're

210
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: playing how many sizzle fires? Aka? How hot are the

211
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: takes I'm throwing up Mark? Now, disclaimer, these are not

212
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 1: ones that I believe in, but I'm throwing them at

213
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: Mark to see what he believes in. And we've been

214
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: pretty much on point for the most part. So let's

215
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: get to pick. We've been talking about pick number two

216
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 1: a little bit at number twelve, stick with twelve and

217
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: thirty three for that matter. M Mark, here's your hot take.

218
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: How many sizzle fires the Texans will take at least

219
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: one edge rusher with number twelve and thirty three and

220
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: or thirty three. They'll take at least one edge rusher

221
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: at twelve and or thirty three. Open up my freezer,

222
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: let's manipulate the ice machine. Really kidding? Yes, edge rusher

223
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 1: at twelve or thirty three? You're gonna give me that?

224
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: That is not a hot take, not hot at all? Okay,

225
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: your old lineman take was way hotter than this. This

226
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: is the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm chilly, okay,

227
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: because I think there are people that believe the Texans

228
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: are gonna go offense offense offense, which if you go

229
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: offense offense offense, the math tells you not an edge

230
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: Rusher at twelve or thirty three? Yeah, but who are

231
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 1: these people and why do they believe this? Here's the problem.

232
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: And look, we're still what the draft is three weeks

233
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: from Thursday, Johnny, we are. We have a long way

234
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: to go, and they're they're gonna there's gonna be a

235
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: lot of conversation. A lot of people are talking themselves

236
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: into ridiculous things. I was talking myself into some really

237
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: crazy scenarios just in my own head earlier today, and

238
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: I thought, oh man, we need this draft. It's like

239
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 1: a pregnancy. I gotta get it out. I gotta get

240
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: this draft out. We gotta get this done. Please fired

241
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: up on Thursday. Do we have to wait any longer?

242
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: So are you giving me any sizzle fire on that

243
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: at all? And Rusher at twelve or thirty three? No

244
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 1: sizzle fire? Maybe maybe a little somebody pops a lighter,

245
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: but it doesn't even take like the flint is working,

246
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: but there's no gas inside. I'll give you that, Okay,

247
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna all right, all right, apparently you didn't like

248
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: that one. I'll make this one a little more difficult. Okay.

249
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: At pick number twelve, because he has fallen, he used

250
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: to Texans select Jalen Carter from the University of Georgia.

251
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I heard you got cocky. You got cocky

252
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: with that last question, and decided, all right, I'm just

253
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: gonna throw on the gallict. Let's see how you handle

254
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: this one. How many fires? That's a four? That's a

255
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: hot take because and I heard Sean explain this very well,

256
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: because they were discussing this sort of scenario on the

257
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: morning program, and he said, I believe it was Sean

258
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: and not seth Wu said, if Carter falls out of

259
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: the top ten, the Texans are probably an unlikely team

260
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: to stop the free fall. I think that's how he

261
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: worded it somewhat similarly, and I agree with that. If

262
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: he's dropping out of the top ten, well, maybe some

263
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: of these issues and the perception of such or the

264
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 1: reality of such, the perceived reality of such, it's just

265
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 1: more than we thought. Right, it's more than we can

266
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: handle here to see him going in the top ten.

267
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: So are the Texans really going to be the kind

268
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: of team to stop the fall of Jail and Carter?

269
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: I don't think so. In fact, here's here's another one

270
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: more likely to happen, mixing segments. Carter to the Texans

271
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: at two or Carter to the Texans at twelve. It's

272
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: probably twelve, but oh you think it two. I mean,

273
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: if they're gonna take him at shot, if they're gonna

274
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: take him at all, they might just take him at two,

275
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: because look, you know, talent always wins out. The only

276
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: reason that Jeffrey Simmons didn't get taken in the draft

277
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: whatever twenty nineteen or whatever draft that was, was because

278
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: he had a twenty ACL and they weren't sure when

279
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: he was gonna be ready. But if all Simmons had

280
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: had was his off the field incident coming out of

281
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: high school, he was completely clean and missing the state,

282
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: he would have gone at a top four or five picks.

283
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: I'm convinced that ACL kind of had people thrown. Carter

284
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: doesn't have anything like that. He's just got this massive

285
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: incident that they gotta work with and how teams are

286
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: gonna work with that. If you're not gonna take him

287
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: at two, you're not gonna take him at twelve. So

288
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: I just assume take him at two, because would you listen,

289
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: would you want would you want Ballard taking him at

290
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: four to be enticed to take Jaylen Carter and put

291
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: him next to Buckner and Stuart And it's a quarterback.

292
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: But still, you know, Seattle, that happen Detroit, Las Vegas doesn't.

293
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Las Vegas said they're not going to do it,

294
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: and I understand why. I completely get that, um considering

295
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: you know what they had with Henry Ruggs a few

296
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: years ago. So yeah, it's it's it's dicey Okay. I

297
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: like how you threw that back on me, So here

298
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: we go, Okay. Bruce Felman last week, we we um

299
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: we looked at his mock draft because his mock draft

300
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: was littered with comments from coaches that have coached against

301
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: these particular prospects. It was great, but at pick number

302
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: twelve he traded. He had the Giants going up to twelve,

303
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: the Texans going down to twenty five. We'll say it

304
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: doesn't happen Let's say the Texans do take Bryce Young

305
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: at two uh, and they take Jalen Hyatt. That's my

306
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: mock draft Jalen Hyde from Tennessee at twelve at pick

307
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: number twenty five. The Giants are on the clock. Bijean

308
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: Robinson is still there. Here's your hot take. The Texans

309
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: trade back into the first round with the New York

310
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: Giants and draft Bijean Robinson. How many sizzle fires four

311
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 1: and three quarters. Oh, they're not doing that. They are

312
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: not doing that. There's no way they They just signed

313
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, They've got Davian Peers. They're not moving up

314
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: from thirty three to twenty five to take Bijean Robinson. Now,

315
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: if Robinson falls, a lot of teams are gonna say,

316
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: wait a minute, he's falling. And I think if he falls, Johnny,

317
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: it's no fault of his own. I just think, keep

318
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: one of other needs and they see other things that

319
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: are enticing to them and they figure out we can

320
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: get a running back later or whatever. Not that he's

321
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 1: not great. He is great, projected to be great at

322
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: the next level. I understand the temptation. I don't think

323
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: the Texans are gonna bite on that temptation because they

324
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,439
Speaker 1: feel like it's not like they're set for life at

325
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: running back, but they're okay for now and they have

326
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: other needs. They have other There are other players on

327
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: the board at thirty three or even to move up

328
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: to take other than be Jean Robinson who fit what

329
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: they're gonna need. And I know they never like to

330
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: talk about need during draft weekend, but need does exist.

331
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: You have needs. And even though they've signed free agents

332
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 1: or acquired players this offseason that can take care of

333
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: some spots that needed major attention, they still need to

334
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: service these spots long term, and you do that with draft.

335
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: There are people in their cars right now screaming at us,

336
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: go and take it, do it, do it. What's it

337
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: gonna cost? What does it cost to move up thirty

338
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: three to twenty five? By the way, somebody contacted us

339
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: about the draft value chart and then you you relay

340
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: that information. Yeah, draft tech, Draft Tech, that's where I've gone.

341
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: And in fact, to go up eight spots it would

342
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: cost one hundred and looks like one hundred and forty.

343
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: It would cost probably picks seventy three. It's it's a third,

344
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 1: it's like a mid third rounder. You'd have to give up,

345
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: so you'd probably have to get a little something back

346
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: if you gave up seventy three. Um. You know that's

347
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 1: when you look at the up. When you look at

348
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: the order of picks here and you're looking at it

349
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: two twelve, thirty three, sixty five, seventy three, you know,

350
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 1: I start to get greedy. I'm like, wait a minute,

351
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: I get await from thirty three to sixty five. That's

352
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: why I think we're gonna trade down from twelve. I

353
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: think we're gonna go down about twenty. That'll give us

354
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: thirty three. Then we'll get like fifty two, fifty three,

355
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: then sixty five and seventy three. That'll be spaced out.

356
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 1: That'll be spaced out well enough. That's what I think

357
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: we end up doing. Okay, sixty five and seventy three.

358
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: You brought it up. There's two, there's twelve, there's thirty three.

359
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: Now there's sixty five and seventy three. Either of those picks,

360
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: one of those picks will be a corner cr n

361
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: e R a cornerback. I bring that up because it

362
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: is largely thought that the corners in this draft, this

363
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: is the best class of all the positions and it's

364
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: the best class it's been. Are the Texans taking a

365
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: corner back at either sixty five or seventy three? Tell

366
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: me this, I would. I would just give it a

367
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: two and a half. Okay, right, yeah, because I think

368
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 1: you always you always need corners, and now you're in

369
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: the third round and attractive players can be. There is

370
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: Travias Hodjas, Tomlinson from TCU there when they pick at

371
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: sixty five, Yes, and I would do that in a heartbeat, Mark,

372
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: I absolutely would. So I like the fact you get

373
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 1: a two cil fires because I do think you can

374
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: get better at corner in this draft. There's no doubt.

375
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 1: There's so many good players at corner, no question. And

376
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: there is an nc DOUBA Final four championship game tonight,

377
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: San Diego State taking on Yukon. Check it out right
