1 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: At least is the drive with Dale Lolly and Matt 2 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 1: Williamson on your twenty four to seven Home of the 3 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,799 Speaker 1: Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio. 4 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: And we are back. I am Dale Lowly here with 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 2: the Matt Williamson. Matt. We haven't done a mock draft. 6 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 3: I was hoping we got two weeks we need to 7 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 3: combines happened. I'm sure these sites have changed some rankings 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: around my suggestion. Despite what Lab said, I think you 9 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 3: could get a couple guys locked up pretty quick. That's 10 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 3: without he goes without a doubt. Let's go with fields okay, 11 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 3: Christian Kirk okay, and a starting outside corner. 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: I'm good with all that. 13 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 3: I think that's about where we'll be. Yeah, you know 14 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 3: late next week. 15 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, If that's the case, would 16 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: you consider a trade up for one of the defensive linemen. 17 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 3: I don't think the three that I'm definitely taking or there. 18 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. That's why I'm saying that, because, 19 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: for example, the Chicago Bears have now taken an interior 20 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: offensive lineman. They're not draft in one everybody. All the 21 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 2: drafts that we've been doing before, the Bears were always 22 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: taking an offensive lineman. 23 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 3: And now I don't think that they do. And I 24 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 3: think D lines a D line could be a big 25 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 3: kneed unless they go genty or something weird like. 26 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: That, we're an edge rusher or something like that. Right, 27 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: So now I'm looking at just do I want to 28 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: maybe move up five splus to get ahead of say Cincinnati. 29 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 3: Oh, there were some landing spots for these guys. 30 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 2: That I got to go up and get one of 31 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: these guys. 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 3: Well, let me go down this road too. I'm not comfortable. 33 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: I'm on the fence. If I'm comfortable taking Harmon at 34 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 3: twenty one, yeah, I mean, like again, I would use 35 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: this analogy. Genie comes out of the bottle today in 36 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 3: the middle young at the beginning of March, would you 37 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: trade twenty one for Harmon? 38 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: No, but I'd feel better about it at thirty. 39 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: Right, right, right, But when it comes around in the 40 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: twenty eyes are off the board. He still might be 41 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: my choice. I mean, you know that if it doesn't 42 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: go and and my evaluation on him isn't complete either. 43 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 3: Where if a Genie comes out of the bottle, I 44 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 3: would probably take Nolan or Grant to twenty one and 45 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: say I'm happy with it. Yeah, you know, I give 46 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: it a less than fifty per chance. Are there and 47 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 3: you do? With some needs taken care of? Do we 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 3: love those guys? 49 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 2: Though? 50 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 3: I don't think that's like trading up for paulam Olive, 51 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like they're good prospects, but 52 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 3: are they franchise changing prospects. 53 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. I think Grant could be. 54 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: I love him. 55 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 2: I think he could be the missing ingredient on your defense. 56 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 3: I mean maybe if he worked out in India, I'd 57 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 3: be like, oh, yeah, he is. Maybe it's just a 58 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 3: little bit out of sight, out of mind. I don't know. 59 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: We could play it that way and see how it goes. 60 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: Let's see how it goes. Yeah, I've slowed things down. 61 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 3: Okay, I don't want to go, We'll go. I don't 62 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 3: want to give up my second, No. 63 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: I'm not interested in that. But if I can give 64 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 2: up a third, maybe make that happen. Maybe think about it. Yeah, 65 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna start the draft here. It's gonna 66 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 2: go slow. We can talk about this as it goes. 67 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 2: Travis Hunter goes number one overall, Abdul Carter Mason Graham 68 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 2: at three. That makes things interesting. I asked genty at four, 69 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: Will Campbell at five? The Raiders take cam Ward and 70 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: make sure Ward's off the board. Membo goes at seven. 71 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 3: He might go at seven, by the way. 72 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 2: Jehad Campbell goes at eight. Tyler Warren goes at nine. Okay, 73 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: the Bears just took Mike Green at ten. San Francisco's 74 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: on the clock. This is gonna start being the more 75 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: of the offensive line run, I. 76 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 3: Would think, so, I mean, I'm letting it fall from now. 77 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: I mean, which there's two still two targets. All right, 78 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: I'm gonna resume here. 79 00:03:54,640 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 2: Torodde Barron going twenty one to eleven, McMillan, Will Johnson, 80 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: Colt Stake, Shamar Stewart. Okay, we're at fifteen. Now two guys, 81 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: both those guys are available. 82 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 3: It sounds like, and I'm starting to lean this way too, 83 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 3: if Grant and Nolan were available, would you take Grant? 84 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: Now? 85 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 3: I would take Grant. There's also some off the field 86 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 3: stuff looming with Nolan that I don't even know what 87 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: it is. 88 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: I don't even know what it is. 89 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if it's good bad. I mean, well, 90 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 3: it's not good. But I don't whatever it is, I 91 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 3: don't know how severe it is. I don't know. 92 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm I'm letting a ride at this point. Okay, Yeah, 93 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: Falcons are on the clock here, They're gonna take it 94 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 2: the end. 95 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 3: Okay, maybe Nolan, somebody that could rush a passer. 96 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: Falcons take Kenneth Grant. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna resume your 97 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: Cardinals are on the clock. This would be the team 98 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 2: I would move up to go get. 99 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 3: He see someone that's worth trading up for. I mean, 100 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 3: at this point, we're like seventeen here. 101 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 2: They're at sixteen. The Bengals are up next. 102 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, he probably falls here. I mean, he probably gets 103 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 3: scooped up in one of these two picks we want 104 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: to I'm gonna at least see what Okay, because what 105 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: I'm sitting here thinking is if we miss out on 106 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: the three D linemen, we're gonna have a conversation of harming. 107 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 2: Verse. 108 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 3: The best receiver on the board, which could be Golden 109 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 3: Verse probably don't want to go corner there. 110 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: This is saying they'll accept sixteen and one fourteen for 111 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: twenty one and eighty five to move up the sixty 112 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: eight percent chances that would be accepted. There's a lot 113 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: of good d linemen on day two, though, I understand that. Yeah, 114 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 2: that doesn't take me out of the market to go 115 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 2: get it a true nose twn right. I mean, I'm 116 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: goingly warm it out to like West, and I'm not 117 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 2: giving away I'm not giving away any picks here. We're 118 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: just going up to make sure that we get that guy. 119 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 3: What's your vote on this, It seems like you're leaning 120 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: towards Yes. 121 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 2: I think I would in this instance. 122 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 3: I don't know who i'd be thrilled to see get 123 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 3: there other than Nolan. You know, if you if you 124 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 3: stand pat because you already landed or receive Christian Kirk. 125 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if I'm using I don't 126 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 3: want to use the first round corner if I landed. 127 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: And I've already signed a cornerback, so i don't need 128 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: a first round cornerback. I've already gotten a wide receiver, 129 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 2: so I don't necessarily have a pressing need to go 130 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 2: get another wide receiver. 131 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 3: Like there are some dudes. The two top safeties I'm 132 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 3: a little bit interested in, which is kind of a 133 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 3: weird conversation, but we'll have that later in the week. 134 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 3: I guess all right, let's do it. 135 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 2: They accepted it, so we're on the clock. Nolan. We 136 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: take Walter Nolan and we didn't really give up. No, 137 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,119 Speaker 2: it wasn't that much. The get there right, all right? 138 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 2: Okay EGBCA went at seventeen to the Bengals. Okay, wow, 139 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: the Cardinals at twenty one. Take Josh Simmons. All right, 140 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna speed things up. 141 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 3: Now, Okay, can you do that? Yeah, because we're done 142 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 3: trading up. We might listen to trade downs in round two. 143 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, Now it went in the second rounds. It's 144 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: not letting me speed this up. What are you doing here? 145 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: Come on, I don't want to do this whole draft 146 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 2: this slowly speed up. It's gonna do this the whole 147 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 2: way through. That's fine. 148 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 3: Who was on the board at twenty one or is 149 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 3: that hard to look at? 150 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 2: Now? I can so. At twenty one you still had Simmons, 151 00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 2: Calvin Banks, Malachi Starks, Amari and Hampton, Derek Harmon. 152 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 3: There were some decent options. 153 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: Darius Alexander, and I like Darius Alexander. That's a little rich, 154 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 2: but that's a little rich for me to take in 155 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: the first A twenty four year old. 156 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: If he's little old too, who's. 157 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 2: Going to be twenty five and make that the guy 158 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: I'm gonna build my line around him, right right, right, Yeah, 159 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: I like trying to lay a youth movement here. I'd 160 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 2: like it. You know, if you were two years younger, 161 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: i'd like him a lot more. I wouldn't mind taking 162 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 2: him at twenty one. 163 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 3: And I'd love him to be a Steeler. But at twenty one, 164 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. If it was thirty, okay, you know, 165 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 3: right right, I would considered Hampton there maybe maybe maybe. 166 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 3: I mean I'm not big on a first round running 167 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 3: back either. Yeah, okay, now I hear you. 168 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 2: That's the problem with that, that conundrum that you have there. 169 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 3: If things don't go your way, would you consider Simmons? 170 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: I would consider it. 171 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 3: You don't know you're gonna pick up Roger Jones fifty year, 172 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 3: which is always comes sooner than you think. Yeah, fatan 173 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 3: who might be an unbelievable guard. 174 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 2: Right. I don't think Simal is going to be in 175 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 2: the mixed ag Okay, we're up here now at fifty three, 176 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: the top player available is Shadoor Sanders. It's not gonna happen. 177 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: That's not that's not even Yeah, the. 178 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 3: I have seen him mock the Steelers at twenty one, 179 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: which is a totally different conversation. But the next one 180 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 3: is slightly believable. 181 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: The next player available is Alfred Collins. Now that would 182 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 2: be something that would be interesting. 183 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: I'm a big fan. Yeah, I mean back to back. 184 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 3: D Lineman's a little crazy, but okay, they're very different. 185 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the ones, the ones a true nose 186 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 2: and the other one is in I'm just gonna look. 187 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 3: Here at the top running. I'm curious what else available. 188 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 3: But I would not have a problem with that, or 189 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 3: I would not have a problem with Collins. 190 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 2: The second round period scatter Boo, Dylan Samson, he doesn't fit, yeah, 191 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: Caleb Johnson, Trevon Henderson, R J Harvey, DJ Giddons. DJ 192 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: Giddens is kind of I can't use a second round 193 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 2: pick on it, but he's somebody to know. Now. His 194 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 2: workout was mind boggling, his feet were really good, and 195 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: he's big. Yeah, that's what's there right now. We don't 196 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: have another pick until one fourteen. By the way. 197 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I know we do have. 198 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: Two trade offers here. I don't know if I can 199 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: take Scattabo. 200 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: I don't like any of those backs there. 201 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, at that spot. 202 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: Who are some of the other top availables. 203 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: Alpha Colin Scattabo to a Moloa doesn't fit for strepo, 204 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 2: Jack Sawyer, Darian Porter, Jared Ivy, Arianta Ersii, Omar Norman, Lott, Azeri, 205 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: A Thomas, Dylan Sampson, Caleb Johnson, Kyle Kinnard, Benjamin Morrison, 206 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: Donovan Jackson, Josiah Stewart, Treveon Henderson, Mason Taylor, Jordan Birch, 207 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: Cameron Williams, Aussie Tripe. 208 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 3: I don't I think he's sticking pick callings that. My 209 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: two favorite guys are Porter and uh Azar A Thomas 210 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 3: and he drafted a coming. I think they're great values 211 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 3: in the second round, but not if I just signed 212 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: an outside cornering right, I have Trice right right? 213 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, So okay, I think you take them for Collins. 214 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 3: I don't want to move down too far and lose them. 215 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 2: No, Okay, So we're that's what we're looking at. So 216 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: we've we've really beefed up the defensive line. Yeah, first 217 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 2: two pick, you have fixed your I don't know that 218 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 2: you fixed your defensive line. Well, it's promising but it's yeah, 219 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: you like where you're at with that group. Even if 220 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 2: one of the two hits, you're happy about it five years. Yeah, whatever, 221 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: chances are both of them I think big defensive linemen 222 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 2: or nose tackle types. I don't know that there's a 223 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: lot a high bust rate there. No, they be big 224 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 2: and strong and powerful. 225 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 3: Pretty much translated, right, And I like Cam Hayward to 226 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: take both of them around, and hey, this is how 227 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 3: we do things. Running back has to come soon though. 228 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 2: Running back has to be on It almost has to 229 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: be our next pick. 230 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 3: Are there are these two close together. 231 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: Though we have one fourteen and one twenty two? 232 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 3: Okay, okay, so yeah, one of these two has to 233 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 3: be a back. In my opinion, I wish you could 234 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 3: speed this thing. I know another receiver wouldn't break my heart. 235 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 3: I mean, right now you're sitting there with Kirk Pickens, 236 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 3: Austin Wilson. Yeah, and I can live with that. But 237 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 3: if you could get me a six or four dude 238 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 3: or a six three guy, I'm interested. I would consider 239 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 3: a project tackle. I mean the William and Mary William Grant, 240 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 3: somebody like that would be somebody I'd think about. Here, 241 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: what about a safety slot. Last thing on defense, you 242 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 3: need type guy. 243 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 2: I would say, I mean, yeah, I need a bigger slot. 244 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, right right, that's what I mean. Yeah, that's 245 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 3: something I would consider here too. Or quarterback. We're quarterback, yeah, 246 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 3: but definitely a running back as we wanted two. 247 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 2: Since we've gone defense with the first two picks, I 248 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: think you almost have to go offense at one, fourteen, one, 249 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: twenty two. 250 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 3: And all those needs I mentioned except for big slot. 251 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 2: We're offense. Yeah, right, all right, and you can find 252 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 2: those oh yeah yeah slot type players. M R. J. 253 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 3: Harvey just went, yeah, this is taking way too long. 254 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 3: It's gonna be right, But I wanted to be able 255 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 3: to make that move. Yeah yeah. And if you traden up. 256 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 2: Too hard, you do it on the fast movies. It's 257 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 2: like on Turbo. It's just you don't have time to 258 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: know you're drinking from Firero's right. Yeah, so a lot 259 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: of that one I was a kid. It's one of 260 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 2: my voice is gone right now. 261 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 3: But there are backs, and would you go back to 262 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 3: back backs? That's fun to say back to back backs? Yeah, 263 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 3: I don't know if I would rate. 264 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 2: It's not quite like saying Taylor Swift No, that's my favors. 265 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: But I think quarterback and running back are both appealing 266 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: in the spot. 267 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And I think there'll be some guys there 268 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 2: that we probably like a lot. I would imagine as 269 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 2: we turned through this thing. Speaking of the quarterback stuff, 270 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 2: people weren't enamored with the on field workouts of the 271 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: guys no on Saturday. The people the ones that got 272 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: the best reviews. First of all, I think Howard probably 273 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: gets a bad rap. That guy had to play deep 274 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: into he didn't practice any of this stuff, you know, 275 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 2: like he has a lot less time to prepare than others. 276 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 2: But the guys that got good reviews were yours, which 277 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 2: I think he did play through some injuries. And I'm 278 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: a little more excited about him now than I was 279 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: a month ago because he wasn't the top recruit in 280 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: the country for a reason. 281 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: He's not lacking talent. But I'm like, in this neighborhood, 282 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: not in the top two round, right who there two 283 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 3: that got good reviews? Mill Roe did, but in. 284 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 2: The Missouri kid in the Missouri kid didn't show me shock, 285 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: Milrod didn't show me anything that you didn't already. 286 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 3: No, right, exactly, we had this conversation off the air. 287 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: He's a good big passer. 288 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: His intermediate and short stuff was bad. It was bad. 289 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: He looked pretty throwing the ball down the field. I 290 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: already knew that, right right. 291 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 3: I don't know why he didn't run a forty. I 292 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 3: don't quite get that. I don't get any quarterbacks r 293 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 3: in a forty. You should do it in half a second, 294 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 3: faster than anybody out there, and that's what we'd be talking. 295 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 2: We'll be talking about that, like crazy. Yeah, I was 296 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 2: happy that his hand grew. Yeah, I'd like to have 297 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: him in my building and get a measurement on because 298 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 2: somebody's not somebody's not right. Yeah, somebody might measure that 299 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 2: thing wrong. 300 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 3: There's some arm legs like that too.

I think 334 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 3: Riley Leonard is going to stick. 335 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: In the league. I thought Leonard actually had a real workout. 336 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 3: He also played in the National Championship. 337 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 2: You know. 338 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 3: I mean, this guy played the Senior Bowl. He throws 339 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 3: the ball better than you think. I thought he was 340 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 3: gonna be Taysom Hill. But he's a quarterback. 341 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's better than that. 342 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 3: He is better than that. I would certainly take Shock 343 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 3: here and hope Martinez or Touton falls. Is there another 344 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 3: I didn't love the running back group? 345 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 2: I didn't either. 346 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I like the quarterback group a lot better 347 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 3: than the running back group. I wouldn't mind yours, even 348 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 3: if they're not a Fields match. I don't play on 349 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: playing on this year anyways. Who's sticking out the Shock 350 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 3: times a million? But I'm infatuated with top player available 351 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 3: as C J. 352 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 2: West. 353 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 3: Oh if I knew, I mean, I might not have 354 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: taken Collins knowing that but you don't know. But I'm 355 00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 3: happy with Colin. 356 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 2: Yeah right. Jamari Calbwell is there. I like him as 357 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 2: well in this name j J Pegas is there. 358 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 3: I do think that's an argument. And we've done enough 359 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 3: of these to know a second round knows whether it's. 360 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 2: There's gonna be noses deeper into the draft. 361 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 3: I like a fourth round nose. 362 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. 363 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 3: I mean there's just that not every team's after those guys. Yeah, 364 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 3: who's your favorite back? I think mine's Miami Martinez. I'm 365 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 3: kind of in the same boat. 366 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: M H. Touton is exciting, but he's a little smaller 367 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 2: and he's fumbler, and you know, right, so I don't 368 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 2: know that he lasts this long either. I don't think so. 369 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 2: I think he goes before this because of the speed factor. 370 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 3: If there's seven or eight backs gone, I think he's 371 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 3: one of them. Yeah, which there must be if this 372 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 3: is what we're looking at. 373 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you take Martinez. 374 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 3: That's fine. 375 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: He's good. Yeah. 376 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,719 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if he's going to Pro 377 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 3: Bowl after Pro Bowl, but he's good and he would 378 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 3: His style is attractive. 379 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: Okay, we're gonna run this down to our next pick. 380 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 2: At one twenty two, and then we'll cut it there 381 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 2: since it's going so sit Yeah, yeah, you'll talk about it, 382 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 2: and I think we take the quarterback here at the 383 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 2: next pick. We just kind of talked through that if 384 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 2: it is fields of that group, Dylan Gabriel, when you 385 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 2: weres cal McCord, Tanner or Tyler Shuck, Curtis Rourke is there, 386 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 2: Brady Cook is there? 387 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 3: Still shucked by a million for a minute. 388 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, Shuck was faster than I think a lot of 389 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 2: people gave him credit for all. 390 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 3: He's, of course six five.

This and they can do that because 715 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,360 Speaker 2: they have the. Quarterback they got a special, player, Right 716 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,720 Speaker 2: whereas The steelers are doing this the other. Way They're, 717 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 2: okay we don't have the. Quarterbacks we gotta win with, 718 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 2: defense and everybody keeps, well they have the highest paid 719 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: defense in the. LEAGUE i don't care about, that because 720 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,600 Speaker 2: if you don't have the, quarterback how the hell else 721 00:34:57,640 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: are you gonna? Win? Exactly you better play. 722 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: Defense, Yeah i'm sure The eagles defense isn't cheap. Either, no, 723 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 3: yeah right, now it's. 724 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 2: Cheaper it's cheaper because they've they've used some draft, picks 725 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 2: but they just spent money on on an inside. 726 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 3: Line they just kept. 727 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 2: On in the last two, days The eagles have paid 728 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 2: big money to a running back and an off ball. 729 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 2: Linebacker thought you weren't supposed to do, that, right all? 730 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 3: Right AND i don't think they would have three years 731 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 3: ago or two years. 732 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 2: Ago, yeah but now things change and it. 733 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 3: Happens you would just, yeah they're both top two players 734 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 3: at their positions and you just came To Super. 735 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 2: Bowl it's real easy to say that when you don't 736 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 2: have the, guy you, know the the everybody talked about 737 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 2: the forty nine, Ers, well the forty nine, ers they 738 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 2: just plug whatever running back they want to in there 739 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 2: and the guy goes out and has big. Games, okay they. 740 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 2: Would those guys would do it for about six, games 741 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 2: then they get hurt most and this guy would do 742 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 2: it for three, games and then he would get hurt 743 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 2: and then they, said wait a, second we can go 744 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 2: Get christian. 745 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 3: McCaffrey, Yeah panthers are down and, out and then they 746 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 3: started going To Super. Bowls, yeah and he's the first 747 00:35:57,920 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 3: pick of fantasy. Drafts and it's, like it's. 748 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 2: Better it's a. Lot it's much easier to do it this. 749 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 3: Way AND i bet The niner season would have been 750 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 3: better if McCaffrey played seventeen. Games, YEAH i bet they 751 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: win a game or two. 752 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 2: More it just drives.
