Speaker 1: We welcome you to the Official Titans podcast, better known
Speaker 1: as the ot Beat. My neighbor is Mike Heath, Joined
Speaker 1: as usual by Amy Well mate, how are you? Oh
Speaker 1: so good? How are you great? Thank you? Joined by
Speaker 1: Titans Radios Draft Duo Coach Dave mcginnison, Rehet Brian. Welcome, gentlemen,
Speaker 1: Thanks Mike, Coach Mac. More than any of the rest
Speaker 1: of us, you were the one that had to survive.
Speaker 1: The tornado went right over the top of me. I mean,
Speaker 1: if people are asking me how how it is, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's about the third one I've survived. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: at very day. This one was this one was the closest.
Speaker 1: It was sounded like somebody was landing a seven forty
Speaker 1: seven on top of my house. You know, I was.
Speaker 1: I'm in East Nashville. It was destroyed. You know, I'm
Speaker 1: right in that path. I'm about two blocks from Lachland
Speaker 1: Table and it was just completely destroyed. I mean, I've
Speaker 1: still got no I've got no power. Our neighborhood won't
Speaker 1: have power for a long time. I mean there are rucks.
Speaker 1: I mean there's trucks, police, there's it's going to be.
Speaker 1: It was devastating. I mean it when you are around
Speaker 1: that stuff and it hits you close, the power that
Speaker 1: those things and how quick it comes. I had about
Speaker 1: twenty seconds to find an inside wall, you know, before
Speaker 1: it before it hit. And then, uh, it was devastating.
Speaker 1: Now I've got there's a church right across the street
Speaker 1: from me that's completely blown away. And you know, my
Speaker 1: structure is still standing. I got things on my truck door.
Speaker 1: That's it. I mean, I can. I can live without
Speaker 1: power for a while. You don't really realize how much
Speaker 1: you like electricity. I didn't say appreciate, I say like electricity,
Speaker 1: So you don't have it. Obviously, have a lot of
Speaker 1: people to think of and to keep in mind. A
Speaker 1: loss of life, um, loss of structure, loss of you know,
Speaker 1: convenience in terms. I mean, it hits on so many
Speaker 1: different levels, and there's some that are considerably more serious
Speaker 1: than others. Being inconvenienced is one thing, but uh, losing
Speaker 1: people you love of and I mean, it's just awful.
Speaker 1: Not only do we have to keep in mind Davidson County,
Speaker 1: in Wilson County, but our friends in Putnam County and
Speaker 1: vastating the great people of the area of Cookeville, Tennessee
Speaker 1: and our friend Larry Stone who owns Stonecom Radio, their
Speaker 1: Titans Radio's godfather himself. And as you're as you're out
Speaker 1: doing things, as you're giving money, as you're donating your time,
Speaker 1: as you're donating your resources, don't forget people outside of
Speaker 1: the immediate Nashville area. You want to help everybody in Nashville,
Speaker 1: But my goodness, I mean, the Cookville thing is horrendous.
Speaker 1: It's the deadliest tornado in you in Tennessee history, and
Speaker 1: they've been keeping records of that for over sixty years now.
Speaker 1: It's an e F three maybe EF four there. The
Speaker 1: Weather Service is doing other surveys of this thing, and
Speaker 1: the damage path is devastating, I mean, absolutely unbelievable. Well,
Speaker 1: the reason we're mentioning it on OTPs, we know there
Speaker 1: are a lot of people who subscribe to the Official
Speaker 1: Titans podcast who are outside the area who want to
Speaker 1: help people. There are people outside the country who want
Speaker 1: to help people. So as you see different ways to help,
Speaker 1: and they will continue to come out. Again, keep the
Speaker 1: people in Nashville in mind, but keep those outside of
Speaker 1: Nashville in mind too when you when you have a
Speaker 1: desire to help, because so much of the national publicity
Speaker 1: is going to be about Nashville. It's a Middle Tennessee thing,
Speaker 1: not Anae. And it's a it's certainly a big thing
Speaker 1: in Cookeville too, and we want to remind you of that. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: We are here to recap the combine and talk about
Speaker 1: what we saw. Dave McGinnis and Rhet Brian did the
Speaker 1: whole thing. Amy Wells and I just basically took a pass.
Speaker 1: We showed up. I mean, we were there and we
Speaker 1: were engaging with We bought the T shirt. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: bought a T shirt like eight a hot dog. But like,
Speaker 1: we didn't stick around to the fourth quarter. Can I
Speaker 1: stop both of you right now? Sure, I was with
Speaker 1: you for the first three days when you were there,
Speaker 1: you guys were outstanding. Well, you got some tremendous guests, uh,
Speaker 1: you know there for the for the OTP, I mean
Speaker 1: really good stuff. You guys did yeoman's work doing that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I and so we try hard. I know
Speaker 1: you didn't we go when we go, We we try hard.
Speaker 1: You got a legitimate guest and did a nice Yoah,
Speaker 1: we did an OTP from up there that I thought
Speaker 1: it was fine. It was very good. Very well received.
Speaker 1: Thank you for all the nice comments out there about that.
Speaker 1: It was very fun. All right. So at the combine
Speaker 1: you see everybody amy everybody. Who was the person you
Speaker 1: were most excited to see? Well, the person I was
Speaker 1: most excited I'm gonna say talk to because I looked
Speaker 1: at him too, was Daniel Jeremiah. Yeah. He is always
Speaker 1: such a fun guy to talk to you because he's
Speaker 1: so knowledgeable and he explains things in a way that
Speaker 1: you don't feel like you're completely out of the loop.
Speaker 1: I mean, he talks about these guys like their friends
Speaker 1: that he has been following for years, and he's so knowledgeable,
Speaker 1: and he's so gracious to talk with us every year,
Speaker 1: and it was really really good to get his insight. Right.
Speaker 1: This was only your second combine, correct, So you get
Speaker 1: to see everybody there. Who were you excited to run into? Now?
Speaker 1: Were we talking players or because the person I wanted
Speaker 1: to see who did not work out, but we'll do
Speaker 1: so at his LSU pro day on April third is
Speaker 1: Claivan Chase Hunt, the pass rusher. Uh. We just wanted
Speaker 1: to see this dude. I wanted to see him up close. Uh,
Speaker 1: he has a neck as long as a giraffe. He's
Speaker 1: like Merton Hanks at the forty nine Wow. But he's
Speaker 1: a He's a big, sculpted, tall dude. That is going
Speaker 1: to be one of the conversations the closer we get
Speaker 1: to the draft, and as we are here right now,
Speaker 1: it's fifty days out. But he did not work He
Speaker 1: did not work out. He's gonna do it at his
Speaker 1: pro day. But I wanted to go to his podium
Speaker 1: feed because just to see what kind of dude he is.
Speaker 1: Loved his confidence. He said, do you want to hire
Speaker 1: a guy that speaks one language or as multi lingual?
Speaker 1: I speak three languages. I can rush the passer, I
Speaker 1: could drop back in coverage and cover most anybody, and
Speaker 1: I can defend the run. Those are the three languages.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm the best pass rusher in this draft. Those
Speaker 1: are the three languages. Yep, I'm sold. I mean I
Speaker 1: thought you were going to say, like German, whatever I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm I would be happy. He didn't study abroad in Lichtensteiner.
Speaker 1: And all I care about is can can you hit
Speaker 1: the quarterback? And he says, I can pass rush, I
Speaker 1: can drop in coverage, I can defend the ruin I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's the three tools that I want. Language, and I
Speaker 1: just I'm fascinated by this guy because I think when
Speaker 1: you put him in a pass rusher situation and line
Speaker 1: him up in one position and he can play multiple
Speaker 1: he's going to excel and do it well. I am
Speaker 1: fluid in those languages. Coachmack, you know everybody, So how
Speaker 1: in the world could you say who you were excited
Speaker 1: to see? Well, I know everybody, and I saw everybody
Speaker 1: because I you know, I sat in the in Lucas
Speaker 1: Oil from four o'clock until eleven o'clock Thursday, Friday and
Speaker 1: Saturday night and then from two to to six on Sunday,
Speaker 1: so had a chance to see everybody and in the hallways.
Speaker 1: And we've already said on ro OTP I was very
Speaker 1: excited to meet all of the security dogs, because I did.
Speaker 1: I met every one of them up there. And then
Speaker 1: I've had several people get ahold of do they would
Speaker 1: not let Peter King at the security dog. Here's he
Speaker 1: wrote about it in his column from the condo. And
Speaker 1: I've I've heard about that because people have heard our thing.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what the last day when I
Speaker 1: was I was walking through the interview place that they
Speaker 1: were tearing it down, and one of the security guards
Speaker 1: was standing at the at the end of it. You know,
Speaker 1: those were big rooms. It was at the very end,
Speaker 1: and he was standing there with my friend Bingo, and
Speaker 1: I just whistled it. I whistled at being going. He
Speaker 1: hooked being going. Beg King run sprinting across the whole
Speaker 1: floors to see me. So and Bingo, beautiful Black Lab
Speaker 1: had her own credential hanging around her neck. Yeah, so
Speaker 1: tell Peter King he needs to be coach Mack before
Speaker 1: he gets in with the guard dogs. This is why
Speaker 1: coach Mack. I'm calling him the mo, the mayor of everywhere,
Speaker 1: the mayor of everywhere. Player wise, the guy that I
Speaker 1: really really wanted to wanted to see. If we're talking
Speaker 1: about player wise, I was really really interested to see
Speaker 1: Tristan Worth's because this guy, to me is probably one
Speaker 1: of the is oh tackle IOWA. Yeah, but he'll be
Speaker 1: more than that. Look he's he reminds me. I drafted
Speaker 1: Leonard Davis number one out of Texas when big was
Speaker 1: coming out out of Texas, and we played him at tackle.
Speaker 1: But I said, once somebody moves him into guard, he
Speaker 1: will be a perennial pro bowler, which he was. This guy,
Speaker 1: this guy could play either or and if somebody has
Speaker 1: the has the wherewithal and the ability on their offensive
Speaker 1: line to play him at guard, he will be devastating, devastating. Now,
Speaker 1: rhet which positions were better than you thought they were
Speaker 1: going to be. I've been sold on anterior defensive linemen
Speaker 1: as just I like big guys that just you know,
Speaker 1: are up there in the line of scrimmage and in
Speaker 1: the trenches. And I didn't think it was quite as
Speaker 1: deep as I've initially thought. This is one that I
Speaker 1: think is better, and I'll give you an example. First
Speaker 1: of all, there's a couple of guys that really helped
Speaker 1: themselves in the combine process. One of Ross Blacklock from TCU, big, big,
Speaker 1: physical guy, Derek Brown is the leader of that group
Speaker 1: at Auburn. He's gonna be the one that's gonna be
Speaker 1: taken heat didn't have as great a combine. But there's
Speaker 1: Marlon Davidson from Auburn. I'm fascinated by this story of
Speaker 1: the Davis twins from Nebraska adopted when they were infants.
Speaker 1: Great story. We'll share that sometime, but Carlos and Khalil
Speaker 1: Davis ran two of the fastest forty times for big
Speaker 1: men in the history of the combine of this thing.
Speaker 1: But a guy who really upped his stock outside of
Speaker 1: a Javon Kin law is Neville Gallimore from Oklahoma six
Speaker 1: two three uh four and ran ran a really good
Speaker 1: forty for that size four seven nine, had a good
Speaker 1: three cone drill. But he's a guy, He's a Canadian dude.
Speaker 1: He was a number one Canadian prospect in twenty fifteen
Speaker 1: out of Ottawa, Ontario, and he is a guy that
Speaker 1: is improving his stock and I think he's a first
Speaker 1: night one Thursday round pick, Thursday night round, first round
Speaker 1: pick in this deal. And interior defensive line, there's some
Speaker 1: guys that can do some stuff here. You know. For
Speaker 1: me it was the interior linebackers because nobody has talked
Speaker 1: about these guys, you know, you know, coming through and
Speaker 1: then just watching them work, you know, I think there's
Speaker 1: there's more. And of course the Patrick Queen and Kenneth Murray,
Speaker 1: those are the two top guys in this draft coming out.
Speaker 1: But just looking at some of the numbers while I
Speaker 1: was watching the linebackers work out, Joe Bocchi from Michigan State.
Speaker 1: You know his six one, two hundred and thirty pound linebacker.
Speaker 1: Twenty six reps on the bench, he ran four sixty seven.
Speaker 1: That's a space linebacker. That's a guy that can play.
Speaker 1: Zach Bond from Wisconsin. Where is Zach Bond going to
Speaker 1: play in the National Football League six two two thirty eight.
Speaker 1: He made his living at Wisconsin, playing a lot of
Speaker 1: different places. Twenty four, but he ran four sixty five.
Speaker 1: That is a space linebacker. That's that's what's going on
Speaker 1: in this league, and that that's what you look about.
Speaker 1: Sean Bradley from Temple six o five two thirty five,
Speaker 1: not as strong a little bit, but he ran four
Speaker 1: five one, and so we've seen what had happened when
Speaker 1: you can develop those space linebackers that can run. And
Speaker 1: to me, that group had a little Now, there were
Speaker 1: some of the guys that I wanted to see work
Speaker 1: out that didn't work out that I know are good
Speaker 1: space players just watching them play. But that inside linebacker group,
Speaker 1: to me, has kind of been looked over in this draft.
Speaker 1: But there are some guys that can run. A guy
Speaker 1: named Davion Taylor from Colorado six o four two twenty eight.
Speaker 1: All right, sounds a lot like some of the guys
Speaker 1: that rant four or five three. There are some guys
Speaker 1: that have space ability that will play in the National
Speaker 1: Football League because you're playing sixty percent of your staffs
Speaker 1: in the National Football League in sub packages. Now, let's
Speaker 1: flip this. Which positions were not as good or as
Speaker 1: strong as you expected them to be. Interior offensive lineman, centers,
Speaker 1: and guards. They aren't top flight and you had this
Speaker 1: suspicion going into this whole thing. I don't think there'll
Speaker 1: be a guard taken in the first round. Caesar Ruiz
Speaker 1: of Michigan will probably be the top interior offensive linemen taken,
Speaker 1: and that'll be probably near the middle of round two.
Speaker 1: You know, I thought going in, and I agree with Rett.
Speaker 1: I mean that to me is that is where as
Speaker 1: far as you talk about impact players, that's where they aren't.
Speaker 1: And the other the other spot is tight end. You know,
Speaker 1: there's not a dominating tight end as there were last year.
Speaker 1: You know, coming out of AVA two of them. There
Speaker 1: are some decent ones, but there are some There are
Speaker 1: tight ends that have different traits that you're going to
Speaker 1: have to be able to live without if you want
Speaker 1: to take a tight end in this draft to make
Speaker 1: an immediate impact. Mac, what do you think is the
Speaker 1: strength of this draft just overall wide receivers. I mean,
Speaker 1: without a doubt, it's wide receivers. I mean, you've got
Speaker 1: you've got guys that have all types of different ability.
Speaker 1: And I was just talking about numbers, and I know
Speaker 1: we'll talk about speeds here in a little while with
Speaker 1: these wide receivers, but you you had you had dudes
Speaker 1: that could run run, you know, and and and you
Speaker 1: know that people were wondering how that was going to
Speaker 1: affect the times as far as running running at night,
Speaker 1: because this is the first time we've done that in
Speaker 1: prime time in this combined sense. It's been there that
Speaker 1: there were some fabulous times posted by these wide receivers.
Speaker 1: And we'll talk about this too. With the change in
Speaker 1: the wide receiver drills, you could see some guys and
Speaker 1: because that's where offenses are going now. But the wide receiver,
Speaker 1: to me, is the definite strength of this draft. I
Speaker 1: would say cornerback and running back to go with that.
Speaker 1: But I'll underline what Coach Max saying about the wide
Speaker 1: receivers to give you an example of how many talented
Speaker 1: guys there are. And a guy that improved his stock
Speaker 1: in this his Chase Claypool of Notre Dame, who measured
Speaker 1: it at six four two thirty eight. He ran a
Speaker 1: four four two forty at that size, nineteen reps at
Speaker 1: two twenty five, a ten to six broad jump, a
Speaker 1: forty and a half inch vertical. That is what Coach
Speaker 1: Max's talking about. We hadn't even talked about the top
Speaker 1: flight ones yet, No, we haven't. And just to his point,
Speaker 1: I mean Denzel Mims from Baylor, I mean, nobody's mentioning
Speaker 1: him as a top flat guy six three, two hundred
Speaker 1: and eight pounds, forty three eight you know, fourth or
Speaker 1: eight to thirty eight and a half inch vertical and
Speaker 1: went up for our listeners for vertical. When I when
Speaker 1: we give you vertical and broad jump numbers, and you ask,
Speaker 1: why is that important? That demonstrates explosiveness And for these
Speaker 1: some positions it's extremely more important than others. But the
Speaker 1: game of football is a game of short, quick burst.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what it is. And to his point
Speaker 1: with Claypool and Denzel Mims ten nine broad jump, I
Speaker 1: mean at six three, two hundred eight pounds four three
Speaker 1: eight guys, that's you know, we throw these numbers out
Speaker 1: like they're nothing. You don't understand how fast four three
Speaker 1: eight is for a human. I mean that is fast
Speaker 1: fast at that size. I want to jump to edge rushers.
Speaker 1: If that's okay. As a group, did they show up better, worse,
Speaker 1: or the same as you thought they would at the combine?
Speaker 1: I thought it was about the same. I thought it was.
Speaker 1: But I was able to distinguish being at the workouts
Speaker 1: and watching to kind of reinforce some opinions that I had,
Speaker 1: because when you talk about edge rushers, you've got to differentiate.
Speaker 1: Are you talking about four three edge rushers. Are you
Speaker 1: talking about sub bass rushers or are you talking about
Speaker 1: three four edge rushers that also have to be able
Speaker 1: to play first and second down and convert from going
Speaker 1: forward to going backwards. Those are the things that you
Speaker 1: have to you know, so you need to you need
Speaker 1: to delineate a little bit of what you're talking talking
Speaker 1: about about edge rushers. And of course we all know
Speaker 1: what Chase Young is. We didn't see him work, it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We know what he is. If you turn
Speaker 1: on ten seconds of tape, you can watch you understand
Speaker 1: what it is Rhet's guy. Chase On is another one
Speaker 1: of those guys. But I enjoyed watching your tour Gross
Speaker 1: Matos work on He didn't run a forty, but watching
Speaker 1: him work on the floor, he's got that athletic ability.
Speaker 1: Terrell Lewis from Alabama? Can I go back to Gross
Speaker 1: made us for a second? Go ahead? After what you saw?
Speaker 1: Could he play three four? Yes? Okay, because going in
Speaker 1: you felt like he might just be a four three
Speaker 1: edge guy. But you've changed your mind a little bit, Well,
Speaker 1: not changed my mind. It just because I didn't see
Speaker 1: him do enough of that stuff on tape. I just
Speaker 1: wanted to see what you could see. The innate athleticism.
Speaker 1: I think he could what the combines for. That's exactly
Speaker 1: what it's for. I mean, you know, and especially you
Speaker 1: know when I was coaching. You get to go to
Speaker 1: school and work him out. You get to work him
Speaker 1: out positions specific to what you want to do. But
Speaker 1: my thought is, yes, Terrell Lewis from Alabama. You know's
Speaker 1: the guy that has fought some injuries there. You know,
Speaker 1: watching him go through the drills, he was a power guy.
Speaker 1: I still think he's a power guy who he didn't
Speaker 1: I saw Curtis Weaver from Boise State. So your answer
Speaker 1: was that they did about what I thought. There were
Speaker 1: some guys that you know a lot, like ej Epinessa
Speaker 1: from Iowa. Now this is a four to three guy.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's definitely a four to three guy. He
Speaker 1: is not a guy you're going to stand up in
Speaker 1: a three to four outside. He's a power guy. He's
Speaker 1: not a bendy edge guy, but he is a powerful
Speaker 1: guy with it. We'll find a place in the first
Speaker 1: round with four to three teams. And I thought it
Speaker 1: was about the same as well, although there are some
Speaker 1: guys that I wanted to see workout in this that
Speaker 1: are in the next couple of tiers down from the
Speaker 1: elite guys. Joshua Ucci from Michigan didn't work out. He
Speaker 1: had a hamstring he suffered at the Senior Bowl. Bradley
Speaker 1: and I from Utah as a guy people are talking about,
Speaker 1: but not as fast or bendy in this thing. When
Speaker 1: you start showing what he can do in some of
Speaker 1: the new drills that were introduced this year at the Combine.
Speaker 1: But I think Coach Max right on this. You know
Speaker 1: you know who the guys are in this thing. And
Speaker 1: I think the pass rusher class is probably as represented.
Speaker 1: Let me just say this from this from this point though,
Speaker 1: with eds rushers in the National Football League, so much
Speaker 1: of that depends on what your scheme is. And it
Speaker 1: also goes to the point that I made about your
Speaker 1: staff's ability to develop somebody beyond what you saw them
Speaker 1: doing collegiately. I want to stay on the defensive side
Speaker 1: of the ball, and I want to talk about cornerbacks
Speaker 1: a little bit. If you're looking for a cornerback with
Speaker 1: elite speed for coverage, so not just fast, but as
Speaker 1: coach Max says, fast fast, can you find him in
Speaker 1: this draft? Rhett, you start, Absolutely you can, because two
Speaker 1: of the top ten forty times in this combine we're cornerbacks.
Speaker 1: One of them is Javelin Guidry from Utah and the
Speaker 1: other is a guy who is a defensive back from
Speaker 1: Louisiana Tech, Lugarius Sneaed Javelin Gidrey four two nine, Lagarius
Speaker 1: sneed four three seven. So yeah, and then coach Max
Speaker 1: got a slew of guys under four or five to
Speaker 1: run under four or five five. Again, it's fast, it's fast, fast,
Speaker 1: And he mentioned he mentioned those two guys, you know,
Speaker 1: but but you start looking, uh, you go to Javarius
Speaker 1: Davis from Auburn four three nine. C. J. Henderson, Florida
Speaker 1: four three nine, Troy Pride, Notre Dame four four Oh
Speaker 1: Tanner Muse Clemson four four one, Josiah Scott Michigan State
Speaker 1: four four two. Are you counting these? Amy A. J.
Speaker 1: Terrell Clempson really a lot? Four four two, Reggie Robinson
Speaker 1: Tulsa four four four. Kendall, I mean, I've got just list.
Speaker 1: I mean, it goes all down the way their speed
Speaker 1: at corner in this draft. And the reason is we
Speaker 1: said that this was a high class in wide receivers.
Speaker 1: That's what's going on offensively in collegiate football. It's what's
Speaker 1: going on offensively. We just saw a track team win
Speaker 1: the you know, the Super Bowl Trophy this year, and
Speaker 1: then these guys are guys that are have to come
Speaker 1: in to cover these people. There are a lot of them.
Speaker 1: So eighteen corners under four to five and some of
Speaker 1: them world class track speed. Rhett was counting for me.
Speaker 1: Thanks he rehet is helpful in that way to help.
Speaker 1: But what we're saying is we're saying you can find
Speaker 1: a corner of any style, any maker model, so to
Speaker 1: speak throughout two hundred and fifty plus picks Well and
Speaker 1: Mac brought up the wide receivers, and I think that
Speaker 1: we've been talking since the very beginning about how deep
Speaker 1: and how strong this wide receiver class is. But when
Speaker 1: you guys got there, did it live up to the hype?
Speaker 1: Did that group seeing them work out and perform the
Speaker 1: drills that we have been anticipating them doing, did they
Speaker 1: live up to the excitement that you ask there every
Speaker 1: making model of wide receiver there absolutely, there's there's all
Speaker 1: the way from Rugs that ran four to eight, all
Speaker 1: all the way to Juwan Jennings who ran four seven two.
Speaker 1: That's a pretty big spread of body type and speed type.
Speaker 1: But there are a lot of them. And Rehet's got
Speaker 1: the numbers of the fastest wide receivers, you know, because
Speaker 1: I sat there and watched every one of them work out.
Speaker 1: But speed speed steps out at you. Reet's got those numbers,
Speaker 1: and I'll get the number of wide receivers that were
Speaker 1: under four five there. So six of the top ten
Speaker 1: fastest forty times at the combine were wide outs. Henry Ruggs,
Speaker 1: Alabama four two seven that screams explosion. That's he. That's
Speaker 1: an Oakland. That's an Oakland. That's a Lost Vegas Raiders pick. No,
Speaker 1: it's an Oakland. It's an Al Davis Oakland Raiders pick
Speaker 1: wide receiver Quez Watkins from Southern Mississippi four three five,
Speaker 1: Denzel Mims, the aforementioned receiver from Baylor forty three eight,
Speaker 1: Darnell Mooney from Tulane who is also a kick returner
Speaker 1: four three eight, Devin Duverney of Texas forty three nine.
Speaker 1: And then a guy from Liberty that people are talking
Speaker 1: about that was in a combine and anti Liberty no
Speaker 1: Lee movie lou Here. But it is Antonio. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson is who I was thinking about. I was
Speaker 1: thinking Antonio Gandy Golden. Never mind Antonio Gibson from Memphis
Speaker 1: four three nine as well. But there's a ton of
Speaker 1: guys under four to five. In fact, there's thirteen more.
Speaker 1: Coach Macas, Yeah, we've already talked about Chase Claypool. You
Speaker 1: got Tyree Cleveland four four to six out of Florida.
Speaker 1: Isaiah Coulter from Rhode Island. Rhode Island had three players.
Speaker 1: He's a real priest he's a prospect. Look Rhode Island,
Speaker 1: Rhode Island, the what were they the Rams? They had
Speaker 1: three prospects at the combine. Think about that, Rhode Island,
Speaker 1: three prospects. Stephen Gidrey Mississippi State four four seven, John
Speaker 1: Hyghtower from Boys, Who's an interesting dude. Four for three.
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson from LSU. That may have helped himself as
Speaker 1: much as anybody in this draft at four to four three.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about him later. Jerry Judy from Alabama. Everybody
Speaker 1: knows that name, Judy, Judy Judy. He ran four to
Speaker 1: four to five. Desmond Patton, Washington State four four eight,
Speaker 1: Donovan People's Jones Michigan four four eight, Jalen raagor frog
Speaker 1: that four four seven, I got, Joe Reid, Freddie Swain,
Speaker 1: Jeff Thomas got it. Nineteen of them under four five.
Speaker 1: All right, So so here's what we got. We got
Speaker 1: a lot of fast receivers. I want to talk about
Speaker 1: Juan Jennings because he from Murphy's Borrow. He played at Tennessee.
Speaker 1: He ran four seven two. Coach Mac, do you think
Speaker 1: that teams were surprised that's what he ran? Or do
Speaker 1: you think that's about what they expect. Nobody was surprised.
Speaker 1: Now I'll tell you who wasn't surprised. First and foremost
Speaker 1: is him, Okay, And he said that in his interview
Speaker 1: when you if you listen to him, said no, I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna run good. I don't that's not my game.
Speaker 1: And nobody, nobody was surprised. I got a lot of
Speaker 1: talk about him when I was there because I drafted
Speaker 1: an Kwan Bowling and everybody, you know, for any receiver
Speaker 1: that runs over four or five in the draft or
Speaker 1: over four to six in the draft, the comparison always
Speaker 1: comes back to, yeah, well an Kwan Bowling ran four
Speaker 1: seven two and he did, and I drafted him and
Speaker 1: so and we know when that worked out pretty good,
Speaker 1: and so we know what kind of you know so,
Speaker 1: but Jennings knew he wasn't going to run fast. That's
Speaker 1: not his game. Nobody cared. That will not alter his
Speaker 1: stock at all. So the fact that the national media
Speaker 1: went nuts and basically through a funeral for his chances
Speaker 1: is completely out the window because of A the tape
Speaker 1: and B. There's going to be a team or two
Speaker 1: that is just going to love and want him and
Speaker 1: they're not worried about a stop. Why Mike Keith, you
Speaker 1: said that, so, well, you're gonna have to You're gonna
Speaker 1: have to want him, just like I wanted, you know,
Speaker 1: an kuon Bolin, I didn't care. I wanted him. Somebody's
Speaker 1: gonna have to want him. And when they do, he's drafted.
Speaker 1: Once he gets in the door of a come of
Speaker 1: a organization, then it's up to him. All right. So
Speaker 1: let's move to offensive tackles. So we've we've hit the
Speaker 1: wide receivers in the corners, and we've talked about how
Speaker 1: deep there. We've hit the edge rushers, a position that
Speaker 1: Titans fans are always interested in. Offensive tackles. Dave McGinnis,
Speaker 1: how many go in the top fifty after what you
Speaker 1: saw in Indianapolis? Five? Yeah, yeah, yea yeah yeah. To me,
Speaker 1: there will be five. You know. If you want the
Speaker 1: names of him, here's the one that I go go
Speaker 1: real early. I mean the first fifty picks. McKay Beckton
Speaker 1: from Louisville, come on, beast, Jedrick Wills from Alabama, Tristan Worse.
Speaker 1: Watching all these guys work, I mean, it's impressive to
Speaker 1: watch uh Andrew Thomas from Georgia, Austin Jackson from USC
Speaker 1: and then there's a next tier right below them that
Speaker 1: it depends on how much you like them. They might
Speaker 1: sneak in there. Lucas Nyang from TCU, Jis Jones from Houston,
Speaker 1: Isaiah Wilson from Georgia who had a massive offensive line
Speaker 1: this year. And then a guy that I really liked
Speaker 1: that is moving up that people. He's much like, if
Speaker 1: you like him, you're gonna take him and you don't
Speaker 1: care what anybody else thinks about it is Ezra Cleveland
Speaker 1: from Boise State. All Right, running back is the depth
Speaker 1: that running back what you hope Dave McGinnis, Yes, absolutely
Speaker 1: it is, and it is and when you and when
Speaker 1: you watch, when you watch the running backs work, and
Speaker 1: what I liked is they had some different drills for
Speaker 1: the running backs this year that are more consistent with
Speaker 1: what's going on in the National Football League. And there
Speaker 1: is there is depth from top to bottom, and there's
Speaker 1: also any flavor that you would want out of the
Speaker 1: out of the running backs. Yes, my answer to that
Speaker 1: is without a doubt. Yes. And let me let me
Speaker 1: say this, if you're not looking for a premier running back,
Speaker 1: but you're looking for a complimentary running back as to
Speaker 1: what the National Football League is going to nowadays. There
Speaker 1: are these people. So the fact that Clyde Edward Laire
Speaker 1: ran a four six one forty does that bother you?
Speaker 1: Not at all? Because his game is not that. His
Speaker 1: game is between the tackles. His game is a physical game.
Speaker 1: He can catch the football. This guy is a chain
Speaker 1: mover and his competitive nature is off the charts. I
Speaker 1: like him. That doesn't bother me at all. You know
Speaker 1: what Reet Brian likes to talk about more than even
Speaker 1: his daughter. No, that's not true. Almost as much as Gracie.
Speaker 1: He likes to talk about defensive tackles in the twenty
Speaker 1: twenty NFL draft, Reet Brian, give me some of the
Speaker 1: defensive tackles that you like. Okay, well, ray Quan Williams
Speaker 1: Michigan State, UH Richard Lawrence Lsu and I mentioned some
Speaker 1: earlier in this and I go back to Neville Gallimore
Speaker 1: from Oklahoma, and I mentioned he's six two three or
Speaker 1: four forty, the Ottawa Madman there. According to esp in
Speaker 1: Stat's information, Gallimore is just one of three defensive linemen
Speaker 1: to post a sub four eighty since two thousand and six. Wow,
Speaker 1: so again top Canadian prospect out of high school in
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen before he redshirters freshman year at Oklahoma. I
Speaker 1: mentioned the Davis twins of Nebraska, Carlos and Khalil good
Speaker 1: combined workouts by them. Khalil's four seven five forty and
Speaker 1: Carlos's four eight two forty are the other two top
Speaker 1: big men speeds in this combine in this thing. A
Speaker 1: guy that really helped himself in this group that is
Speaker 1: coming on and this is Malcolm Rose from Texas. He's
Speaker 1: a run stopping specialist. He's got the body of a
Speaker 1: three technique six to two ninety seven, he's four eight
Speaker 1: four and the forty thirty inch vertical leap for a
Speaker 1: big guy nine five broad jump in this thing. A
Speaker 1: guy that didn't help himself that I know we're gonna
Speaker 1: get to is Derek Brown from Abrange. He's still a
Speaker 1: the pick of the litters, all right, So let Derek
Speaker 1: Brown and Brown beast for the Auburn Tigers. Beast didn't
Speaker 1: have a great combine, Coach Mack, does Derek Brown drop
Speaker 1: very much because of his combine? No, No, not at all.
Speaker 1: There's too much. There's too much evidence on the tape
Speaker 1: there he does not, and especially when you ask him
Speaker 1: what to do. And that's and that's kind of the
Speaker 1: yang and the yang of the combine. And you've got
Speaker 1: to you've got to trust your eyes, you've got to
Speaker 1: trust what the film says. And then just and it
Speaker 1: wasn't like he was awful. It's just like some of
Speaker 1: the big when you start, once you get when you
Speaker 1: get to the combine, sometimes the environment, especially the external
Speaker 1: environment of the combine is you got to wow somebody
Speaker 1: with numbers to be a good football player. That could
Speaker 1: not be further from the truth. This guy's a good
Speaker 1: football player that won't touch it at all. Quarterbacks get
Speaker 1: a lot of attention at the NFL Combine. I mean
Speaker 1: for good reason. They're important guys. But what was the
Speaker 1: top combine story and your guy's opinion when it comes
Speaker 1: to the quarterback group RTT Well, I'm going to go
Speaker 1: back to an earlier OTP and I think it's too
Speaker 1: a tongue of Aloa winning the medical combine as he
Speaker 1: wanted to do. And as we all know in this
Speaker 1: the medical information that's cultivated out of this and it
Speaker 1: is gleaned and the interviews are the biggest things that
Speaker 1: evaluators and coaches and gms get out of this deal.
Speaker 1: And his hospital visit there in Indianapolis to check out
Speaker 1: that hip that had been fractured began at ten am Eastern.
Speaker 1: It lasted nine more hours. But the thing is the
Speaker 1: hips all good. He should be back to running and
Speaker 1: showing off more of those kinds of skills by the
Speaker 1: time that his pro day rolls around April the ninth,
Speaker 1: which is timely in this thing because that happens to
Speaker 1: be about three weeks plus from the NFL Draft. But
Speaker 1: he won the medical combine in this and he was
Speaker 1: a big story that first couple of days. Now, I
Speaker 1: think people just wanted to see with their own eyes,
Speaker 1: Jordan Love. You wanted to get in person and talk
Speaker 1: with him, because there's a lot to work through there.
Speaker 1: The quarterback from Utah State. Quarterback from Utah State. I
Speaker 1: think that was that everybody was had that he did
Speaker 1: all the drills, and you know, I would have loved
Speaker 1: to have been on an interview with him, you know,
Speaker 1: just to just to vet that guy and see what
Speaker 1: he was. But there were a lot of people talking
Speaker 1: about him, all right, So as we talk, let's discuss linebackers.
Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray Oklahoma Patrick Queen Lsu both ran good forty times.
Speaker 1: But then they pulled hamstrings. Did that Did that hurt
Speaker 1: either one of us? Well? That bothered me. That bothered
Speaker 1: me a lot when I was sitting up there with
Speaker 1: a linebacker group, and I sit with a pretty big
Speaker 1: linebacker group during those drills. You know that I have
Speaker 1: for years. You know, some of the faces have gotten younger,
Speaker 1: but some of them have stayed the same. And when
Speaker 1: both of those guys ran and Murray ran a four
Speaker 1: or five two on us first one, Queen ran a
Speaker 1: four or five. Oh, and both of us, both of
Speaker 1: us said, don't run another one. Don't want to run
Speaker 1: another one. It's just like Isaiah Simmons when he came
Speaker 1: out and jumped out what he did. Everybody said, don't
Speaker 1: run another one? Just why? Four? Why? And and both
Speaker 1: of them did, and they both they both tweaked to
Speaker 1: ham I mean that bothered me. That will not hurt
Speaker 1: their draft stock, but it will probably hurt their school workouts. Okay,
Speaker 1: And there's gonna be a lot of people in it
Speaker 1: because both of these guys are legit, I mean legit,
Speaker 1: and I potential first round pick. Yes, they are, Mike,
Speaker 1: and I didn't I didn't know. I didn't know what
Speaker 1: you know Murray. I knew Queen better than I knew
Speaker 1: Murray because I do that coach to coach show with
Speaker 1: with you know, Doug Matthews during the year, and it
Speaker 1: covers the Southeastern Conference, so I knew about him. I
Speaker 1: didn't know that much about Murray at Oklahoma and they
Speaker 1: haven't played defense at Oklahoma in ten years, you know.
Speaker 1: But but this this guy since the Selman's Yeah, since
Speaker 1: the Selman's Bosworth, Yeah, but this guy is legit and
Speaker 1: he is legitimate, and uh, anyway, it bothered me, it
Speaker 1: won't hurt their dress dog. Now, Mack, you mentioned that
Speaker 1: Isaiah Simmons ran a four three nine rhet. Do you
Speaker 1: think that that surprised teams that saw him run that?
Speaker 1: I initially said yes, but I'm gonna say maybe, and
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why, because you remember, this guy was
Speaker 1: asked to drop back in coverage and play some safety
Speaker 1: at Clemson. Let me give you some of the stats
Speaker 1: in this thing, because he was listed with the linebackers
Speaker 1: group in this end linebackers, measuring in at six four,
Speaker 1: He's in the ninety third percentile in height, thirty nine
Speaker 1: inch vertical leap, ninety second percentile in that eleven foot
Speaker 1: broad jump, ninety eight percentile, four three nine, the ninety
Speaker 1: ninth percentile in linebackers. But unlike the aff we're mentioned
Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray and Queen, he smartly ran a four thirty
Speaker 1: nine on that first attempt. Shut it down. Teams will
Speaker 1: get a further look at him on March the twelfth
Speaker 1: at Clemson's Pro day. Well, Mac, so where does he play?
Speaker 1: Is he a safety or is he a linebacker? Where
Speaker 1: does he fit in the national photo? I think somebody
Speaker 1: will start him out on the open side as a
Speaker 1: dropdown guy and then use him everywhere in the sub packages.
Speaker 1: We've already talked about sub packages being sixty percent of
Speaker 1: your defense. Now, I mean what I've seen some beautiful athletes,
Speaker 1: you know, in thirty five years at the combine, beautiful athlete.
Speaker 1: This guy whoa, whoa, it's a whoa. I mean when
Speaker 1: you just see him and you I mean, there are
Speaker 1: some guys when they come up to the starting gates,
Speaker 1: you go okay, and then just this guy. I think
Speaker 1: they'll start him out though, on the open side. But
Speaker 1: don't think he won't do what he did at Clemson.
Speaker 1: He will. He will play, he will drop down, he
Speaker 1: will match This guy is a perfect for what's going on.
Speaker 1: This is a perfect tight end matchup guy. You know
Speaker 1: how you have all those big combat catchers at tight ends, now,
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy is a perfect matchup. If you're
Speaker 1: going to go in and play against somebody even that's
Speaker 1: got a wide receiver, that's a combat catcher that look,
Speaker 1: you're talking about four, three, nine guys and so he
Speaker 1: it's not like that he's going to be outrun by
Speaker 1: very many receivers. Just squared up and as big and
Speaker 1: as long as he is, this guy is a beautiful,
Speaker 1: beautiful chess piece for a defense to use to match
Speaker 1: up a lot of places. Dabbo Sweeney's defensive staff at
Speaker 1: Clemson did a great job utilizing this kid. They absolutely did.
Speaker 1: They absolutely did. You know, Brent Venables, who's their defensive coordinator,
Speaker 1: I know very well he's a next Kansas State guy.
Speaker 1: He does an excellent, excellent job. I've seen his playbook,
Speaker 1: you know, I know what it is and what he does.
Speaker 1: He does a lot of things akin to what goes
Speaker 1: on in the national Football League. This guy whoever gets
Speaker 1: this chess piece is going to be really happy. And
Speaker 1: given what Coach Max just talked about, with his freakish
Speaker 1: athletic ability and measurables and skill set, I think he's
Speaker 1: the wild card defensive first round player in the draft
Speaker 1: that Thursday night. Somebody could take him top five if
Speaker 1: they just love him so much they don't think they
Speaker 1: can live without him. Yeah, it's like having a star player,
Speaker 1: a guy that plays the star position like Minca Fitzpatrick
Speaker 1: on steroids. Yeah right, not, but not because he wouldn't
Speaker 1: be playing four games minimum. And I know what you're mean,
Speaker 1: absolutely as poor choice of words. That's okay, that's pretty good. Actually,
Speaker 1: it's all right, funny, all right, Coach Mack, a bunch
Speaker 1: of new drills at the combine. You like a bunch
Speaker 1: of the new drills. We can't run through all of them.
Speaker 1: Give me three of them that you really thought better
Speaker 1: showcased the players football. I like to do Staley drill.
Speaker 1: And here's what Staley drill. And here's what I like.
Speaker 1: You know, do Staley as assistant head coach run game
Speaker 1: coordinator at Philly. Here here's the thing I liked about
Speaker 1: about do Staley's drill. And when you go to school workouts,
Speaker 1: these are guys that are working out the guys because
Speaker 1: you understand how school workout goes when you go, you know,
Speaker 1: the the scouts set it up, but then they turn
Speaker 1: the individual drills after they've done all their testing, they
Speaker 1: turn that over to position coaches. There are some guys
Speaker 1: that just you go to and you know we're gonna
Speaker 1: be there. Do Staley that he runs a te He
Speaker 1: runs a drill he called the T drill, puts two
Speaker 1: bags together and then puts elongated bag and forms a
Speaker 1: tea and then then they face him and they do
Speaker 1: a lot of footwork within that tea, and then they
Speaker 1: also come off and then evade after a real short stroke,
Speaker 1: you know, coming out of that, out of that, out
Speaker 1: of that tea, and what that What that shows you
Speaker 1: because you've watched inside zone runs, outside zone runs, the
Speaker 1: quick decisions back runners have to make and the foot
Speaker 1: fire that they have to have inside to be able
Speaker 1: to jump gaps and do those types of things and
Speaker 1: then evade second levels, you know, coming off not coming
Speaker 1: off flat. But that's what the t's for. It's it's
Speaker 1: to make them come off with a little bit of separation.
Speaker 1: I love the tea drill that he did. I mean
Speaker 1: that one I really really like. Then then I like
Speaker 1: the drill Terrell Austen does. Terrell Austen, you know, is
Speaker 1: a is a defensive back coach. He's now a senior
Speaker 1: defensive assistant. And what he does, what is more realistic
Speaker 1: than just the long flip turns. You know this, you
Speaker 1: don't ever see, you know what what what he does
Speaker 1: with his it's backpedal five break down. He'll at a
Speaker 1: forty five degree angle catch a ball, then he'll backpedal
Speaker 1: five open the ninety What you have to do sometimes
Speaker 1: on out route, sprint to a spot and then and
Speaker 1: then break down and turn one hundred and eighty degrees
Speaker 1: because the quarterback now has taken his directional key the
Speaker 1: other way, and then go and catch it. And I
Speaker 1: mean he has done that for years, And all the
Speaker 1: school workouts that I've gone to I really like. And
Speaker 1: my favorite of all and I was glad it's a
Speaker 1: Jim Washburn drill. Jim Washburn drill. Jim Washburn drill, I
Speaker 1: mean and Jim Washburn anytime that you went to work
Speaker 1: out a player and Jim Washban was there of the
Speaker 1: defensive line. You knew you were going to watch a
Speaker 1: defensive lineman get a quality workout. And it's done with
Speaker 1: the two hoops that former figure eight when you set
Speaker 1: them together. And Jim used to do it with you know,
Speaker 1: wash used to do it with tennis balls. They did
Speaker 1: it at the combine with rolled up towels that were wrapped,
Speaker 1: you know together. But you go and you bend, and
Speaker 1: what it does. It sees if you can stay in
Speaker 1: that motorcycle lean for an extended band, but also not
Speaker 1: just run, but be able to balance and and to
Speaker 1: pick up that You pick up the towel and take
Speaker 1: it to the other corner of the or the other
Speaker 1: side of the circumference you're running, to drop it and
Speaker 1: then pick up with the alternate hand another one on
Speaker 1: the way. It's a great drill. Wash used to do
Speaker 1: it all the time. I love it. I'm glad they
Speaker 1: incorporated it there, and I'm glad they gave him a
Speaker 1: shout out on the network, you know broadcast. This is
Speaker 1: the Jim Washburn drill. Of course, Daniel Jeremiah knows Jim
Speaker 1: Washburn because well because he and he and Jeremiah and
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Washburn worked together at Baltimore in a tremendous scouting department,
Speaker 1: you know, for Ozzie Newsom. All right, where you've got
Speaker 1: to wrap this thing up. We've talked about a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff, So I want everybody to think about your
Speaker 1: three players who helped themselves the most at the combine.
Speaker 1: Mac You've got a notebook to flip through, So I'm
Speaker 1: gonna start with ratt. Okay, I've got one on offense
Speaker 1: and two on defense, and I will start with the
Speaker 1: guy that I think was the story of the big
Speaker 1: men in Indianapolis, and that's McKay Beckton, the tackle out
Speaker 1: of Louisville, one of the biggest men in this draft.
Speaker 1: Six foot seven, three eights inches, three hundred sixty four pounds,
Speaker 1: arms thirty five and five eights, wingspan over eighty three inches,
Speaker 1: twenty three reps at two twenty five. But the most
Speaker 1: impressive thing he ran a five eleven forty time at
Speaker 1: three hundred sixty four pounds. To put that in perspective,
Speaker 1: it's one tenth slower than quarterback Jake from who weighs
Speaker 1: one hundred forty five pounds less than McKay Beckton. At
Speaker 1: at his size only seventeen percent body fat, so he
Speaker 1: is in pretty dog gone good shape. He was a
Speaker 1: conversation of the big men of the combine. Coach Mack
Speaker 1: will say he'll never have to run forty yards, but
Speaker 1: he could do it if he had to. That's the first.
Speaker 1: It's the first to give us your other two. Justin Mattabek.
Speaker 1: He's the one interior defensive lineman that I have not
Speaker 1: mentioned in all this and could be a pass right
Speaker 1: Texas an ax his A and M six two five
Speaker 1: eight two ninety three wingspan over eighty inches, ran A
Speaker 1: four eight three forty third among all interior linemen at
Speaker 1: two ninety three thirty one reps at two twenty five,
Speaker 1: in the top five with that category of the three
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty seven that were invited, and had the
Speaker 1: best three cone drill time, which shows that lateral movement
Speaker 1: at seven three one initial reports we're talking about. He
Speaker 1: didn't have a good first step get off, but he
Speaker 1: had one point seven four second split in the forty
Speaker 1: That as a guy that's rising up the charts in
Speaker 1: this and the last one is a guy and had
Speaker 1: off field trouble with Mississippi State. He was suspended nine
Speaker 1: eight games during twenty twenty nineteen, had an altercation right
Speaker 1: here at the Music City Bowl with his freshman quarterback.
Speaker 1: And that's Willie Gay, junior of Mississippi State. Six one
Speaker 1: and one eights, two forty three hands, an enormous ten
Speaker 1: and four eight inches wingspan at seventy eight inches. He
Speaker 1: ran a forty yard dash in four four six, had
Speaker 1: an eleven foot four inch broad jump, and a thirty
Speaker 1: nine and a half inch vertical. This is a guy
Speaker 1: if the interviews went well about whatever happened off the field.
Speaker 1: Is another linebacker prospect that is rising. Justin Jefferson the LSU.
Speaker 1: We've already talked about him going in and I'm looking
Speaker 1: at my notes here. I got verse to wide receiver
Speaker 1: skills to play from slot to outside, great route runner, hands,
Speaker 1: ball skills. But he showed the speed that he has.
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody thought that he had the speed
Speaker 1: that he did. I thought he helped himselves. And along
Speaker 1: that line, I talked about the tight Ends not being
Speaker 1: a real deep group. I thought two tight ends helped himselves.
Speaker 1: Albert Okweebinamen from from Missouri. I mean, look, he didn't
Speaker 1: have a great year this year. We all know that.
Speaker 1: But six five, two hundred and fifty pounds, the second
Speaker 1: fastest guy for a player that size. He ran four
Speaker 1: four nine. Okay, And so you're talking about a guy
Speaker 1: that big, that can run that fast. You'll find a
Speaker 1: place for him. You'll fix him, all right. Missouri had
Speaker 1: problems besides him. But this guy, this guy helped himself
Speaker 1: a lot. Another tight end, Joseph of Josiah du Quarra
Speaker 1: from since Nattie. This tight end helped himself. He's six two,
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty two pounds, twenty five bench press
Speaker 1: thirty five and a half vert four seven two forty.
Speaker 1: This is a guy that you can split out. People
Speaker 1: are using so many h backs in twelve personnel right now.
Speaker 1: He helped himself quite a He helped himself quite a bit.
Speaker 1: Can we give Mac a round of applause from the
Speaker 1: names that he just whipped out of there like that.
Speaker 1: I came in with my pronunciation chart to say noah igbinogny,
Speaker 1: and I thought that I was just going to blow
Speaker 1: you all out of the water. Max over here just
Speaker 1: ripping these names like he had dinner with him last week.
Speaker 1: This is not his first round Okay, So we don't
Speaker 1: have we don't have a typical what's brewing on this
Speaker 1: edition of the OTP, but I do have a what's
Speaker 1: brewing for each of you to basically say possible or
Speaker 1: not as realistic. I've pulled five five mock drafts post Combine, okay,
Speaker 1: and I've looked at who they have selected in these
Speaker 1: mock drafts for the Titans. I want to see what
Speaker 1: you think, beginning with coach Mack, and then we'll work around.
Speaker 1: All right, So Amy, you're involved in this too. This
Speaker 1: is your what's brewing assignment as well? Can I say this?
Speaker 1: I like is involved? I usually get tricked in this,
Speaker 1: No trick. ESPN's Todd McShay says, the Tennessee Titans, with
Speaker 1: the twenty ninth pick will select Andrew Thomas, offensive tackle Georgia.
Speaker 1: Coach Mack could that happen? Yes, Amy wells, sure, absolutely
Speaker 1: it could, all right. NFL Networks Daniel Jeremiah says, with
Speaker 1: the twenty ninth pick, the Tennessee Titans select Joshua Jones,
Speaker 1: offensive tackle Houston. No, yes, yes, says coach Mack. The
Speaker 1: Athletics Dane Brugler says at pick number twenty nine, the
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans select Ezra Cleveland offensive tackle Boise State. You
Speaker 1: heard that name already, you said it. You heard that
Speaker 1: name already. H to me, maybe not not there, okay,
Speaker 1: I'd take it. Not there, lower, not there, okay. So
Speaker 1: Sports Illustrated puts together their own mock and with the
Speaker 1: twenty ninth pick, Sports Illustrated says, the Tennessee Titans select
Speaker 1: Kristen Fulton cornerback lsu Rett Bryant. I could absolutely see that, okay, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: I agree to Bleacher Reports. Matt Miller says, with the
Speaker 1: twenty ninth pick, aim, you're going first here, okay. With
Speaker 1: the twenty ninth pick, the Tennessee Titans select Jonathan Taylor,
Speaker 1: running back Wisconsin. No, yes, yes, really, Oh, that guy's
Speaker 1: a big dude. Yes, this is why we played the game.
Speaker 1: He read what was his forty at the combine and
Speaker 1: that's for a dude, a big dude. Now, the only
Speaker 1: concern I have for him, that's none, that's not mine,
Speaker 1: And I know what you're gonna say. It is the
Speaker 1: wear and tear. He has nine hundred and thirty six
Speaker 1: carries in this game. But that's what they have, right
Speaker 1: nearly a thousand carries in college. Guess which game we're
Speaker 1: gonna keep playing through the rest of the spray. Hey, nah,
Speaker 1: it's correct. Rhet Brian, how do people follow you on
Speaker 1: the Twitter machine? At Rhett that's our H E T T.
Speaker 1: The letter B Tennessee at Rhet B Tennessee. All right,
Speaker 1: Amy Wells at Titans Amy, AM I E. And Coach
Speaker 1: mac is on one O four five the Zone our
Speaker 1: station in Nashville. How many times a week? Now? Well, Rhet,
Speaker 1: Now we're on all the day up residence there. We
Speaker 1: were on all day yesterday with the with the you know,
Speaker 1: with the tornado, sure, which was But anyway, I'm on
Speaker 1: there a lot. I'm on I'm on there a lot.
Speaker 1: I'm on here a lot too. That's good stuff, good
Speaker 1: good stuff. So thanking Coach Mack and Rhett Brian, Titans
Speaker 1: Radio's draft duo, and for Amy Wells. Mike Keith says,
Speaker 1: thanks for being with us for this edition of the O. T.
Speaker 1: T
