1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: And now Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,000
Speaker 2: All right, Round one is in the books. Thirty two

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 2: picks are down. Plenty of surprise and intrigue from the

4
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 2: first round, as we welcome you to our first round

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 2: recap here on Move the Sticks alongside Bucky Brooks. I

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 2: am rhtt lewis obviously DJ just getting off the desk

7
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: live in Detroit. Bucky and I. We're on Draft Center

8
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: coverage as well on a variety of platforms on the

9
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 2: NFL channel. We'll be back on that seven o'clock Eastern

10
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 2: time tomorrow for rounds two and three.

11
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 3: But you know what was.

12
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 2: Interesting, Buck, this thing was chalk early on, just kind

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 2: of how we had pegged it. Obviously there had been

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 2: some last minute buzz and whatnot that caused a little

15
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: bit of maybe some change on some last minute mock drafts.

16
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 2: But quarterbacks went one, two, three, Marvin four, We got

17
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: an offensive lineman at five, and Joe Waltz and man,

18
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: things kind of start to move in the train down

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: the tracks early.

20
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, this is it's really unbelievable. Like a lot

21
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 3: of times when we're talking about mock drafts, they're blown

22
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 3: up within the first five years because of trade and

23
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 3: those things. But this went off according to plan. You

24
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 3: think about the first three quarterbacks coming off the board,

25
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 3: the receivers going where we expected them to go, and

26
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 3: then like even the tackle Joe out going exactly where

27
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 3: we expect them go.

28
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 2: So yeah, it is unusual, yeah.

29
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 3: For the mock draft to be so predictive of what

30
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: the real draft does. But sure this year we got

31
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: a little break.

32
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: Yep, Caleb Jaden Drake going two three, So we get

33
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 2: quarterbacks off for the fourth time in the common draft era,

34
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: but for the first time in the common draft era,

35
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: six quarterbacks go in the first twelve picks, fastest we've

36
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: ever seen six quarterbacks come off the board, aided in

37
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: large part by the surprise of the night bar None

38
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 2: Michael Pennix Junior from Washington going to the Atlanta to Falcons,

39
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: who just gave a bag to Kirk Cousins in free agency.

40
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: So Pennix goes to eight and here's how DJ saw

41
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 2: it from the desk in Detroit.

42
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 1: And this is a huge arm. You see Joe Flacco's

43
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: name on the bottom. The way the ball spins out

44
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 1: of his hand, it is very reminiscent of Joe Flacco.

45
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: And you talk about Justin Herbert just spinning the football.

46
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: It is ridiculous with his arm strength. This is from

47
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: the Texas game. Attacking over the top, down the field.

48
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: He can play on top of the coverage. This was

49
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: a question mark in the Texas game. He answered it

50
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: his ability to navigate around some pressure, move around within

51
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: the pocket. Look at his placement to Roma Dunsa down

52
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: the field. Beautiful ball again outside the numbers. He's fantastic.

53
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: Over the top, he's fantastic. And when you need to

54
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: fit the ball on tight windows, watch him beat the

55
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: safety with this throw. Again, it looks like he's throwing

56
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 1: a nerf ball. He has got a ridiculous arm. Now

57
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: there's injuries. That's something that some teams were concerned about.

58
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: His four seasons at Indiana all ended in injury.

59
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 3: Last two years.

60
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: He's been healthy the last two years and he's played

61
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 1: out of his mind. But this is fascinating because we

62
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 1: were talking about he's a little bit older. Do you

63
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: want to get him on the field. He's not getting

64
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: on the field with Kirk Cousins in that contract right now.

65
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So, and according to both DJ and Mike Garafolo,

66
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: who tweeted this out recently. The Kirk Cousins camp was

67
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 2: given about three minutes for warning from the Atlanta Falcons

68
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: that this was happening. Never came up in conversations surrounding

69
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 2: Kirk joining the team. They called him when he when

70
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 2: the Falcons were on the clock, saying that this was

71
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: going to happen. Initial reaction, Penix to the Falcons, what

72
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 2: do you got.

73
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: In this reaction? So we have to attack it from

74
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 3: a few different angles. One, I think Michael Pennix Junior

75
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 3: was certainly worthy of agree in that conversation. When all

76
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: those quarterbacks were there, I had him as my fourth

77
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 3: quarterback in the top five, right behind Drake May. Loved

78
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: his game, and we talked about him being an aggressive,

79
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: big play hunter. You obviously watched him firsthand when Indiana.

80
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 3: This is the guy that kind of look. He's lifted

81
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 3: programs and franchises before, so I thought he had that

82
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: kind of ability. You saw me you dubbed the last

83
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: two years. He was terrific. The Atlanta Falcons were a

84
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 3: bit of a surprise team in the first round. I

85
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 3: thought maybe in the second round he would kind of

86
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 3: slide out and that would be the pick. Kirk Cousins is, Look,

87
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 3: he's in the twilight of his career and I knew

88
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 3: they broke him off and gave him a big bag,

89
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 3: but you're thinking two years max that he would be

90
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 3: the starter. This gives the Falcons like a clear secession

91
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 3: plan to have a quarterback. And we always talk about

92
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: quarterback is the most important position. You got to have

93
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 3: a quarterback. You have to have this. But then we

94
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 3: get mad when teams take quarterbacks early when they have somebody.

95
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 3: But it's the hardest thing to do is when you

96
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 3: have an avoid at quarterback. Yeah, you're now beholden to

97
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 3: what the class brings and you just don't know what

98
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five with twenty twenty six was going to bring.

99
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 3: So to me, Terry Fondaut Rahie Morris, I think they

100
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 3: were active and making sure that a let's make sure

101
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 3: we got the quarterback position solidified for the next five

102
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 3: to six years and then we can figure out how

103
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 3: to build the rest of the team up.

104
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: And they're pretty good on offense as it sits based

105
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: off the fact they took an offensive skill position player

106
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: in the top ten each of the last three drafts

107
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 2: still go offense in the top ten just ends up

108
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: being the quarterback. They'll probably end up on defense once

109
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: they get into rounds two add three. Defense was an

110
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 2: interesting trend point in this year's first round. We set

111
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: another record on that side of the ball. Did not

112
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 2: get a defensive player off the board until laot To

113
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: lot Too, the edge rusher many you kind of pegged,

114
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: is the third edge rusher off the board, mostly because

115
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 2: of medical medically retired at Washington, transfer to UCLA, blew

116
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 2: up twenty three and a half sacks. He goes to

117
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 2: the Indianapolis Colts as the first defender off the board

118
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 2: at fifteen. How's that strike you?

119
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 3: It strikes me. I thought he was a number one

120
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: edge rusher in this class. He was the most polished

121
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 3: pass rusher of the guys that were vying for it

122
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 3: between him, Dallas Turner, and Jared Verse. When you watch

123
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 3: it on tape, first step, quickness, burst, he has all

124
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: those things with the in and after his Colts. To me,

125
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 3: it is a great fit because Gus Bradley doesn't want

126
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 3: to bring pressure. He wants to rely on the front

127
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: four to be able to get home. He wants to

128
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: put those guys in wide alignments and allow them to

129
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 3: have two way goals on edge blockers. Well, LAT two

130
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,919
Speaker 3: can do that. LAT two has every move that you

131
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 3: can think in the toolbox. To me, it works out.

132
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 3: The only thing that could have this go awry would

133
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 3: be the medical situation. Yeah, if he's not able to

134
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 3: kind of hold up and play to his potential due

135
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 3: to injury. But as a player, he certainly is worthy

136
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: of being the first defender to come off the board. Yeah,

137
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 3: I know.

138
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: He had a little bit of a run Byron Murphy

139
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 2: goes to the Sea Hawks. Dallas Turner ends up to

140
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 2: the Vikings at seventeen. They traded up, so they were

141
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 2: part of both of the first two trades. Remember they

142
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 2: had the first trade that netted them. JJ McCarthy moved

143
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 2: up one spot with the Jets to make sure they

144
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 2: got the Michigan man there, and then you know, I'm

145
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 2: just kind of look a chop. Robinson ends up going.

146
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 2: We started the tackles kind of come off the board

147
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 2: and get eight tackles go in the first round. But man,

148
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: I thought it really got interesting. You know. The corners

149
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 2: went a little bit later. Quinyan Mitchell ends up going

150
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: at twenty two to the Eagles first one off Lions

151
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: straight up get Terry and Arnold. But I thought the

152
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 2: most intriguing picks of you know, the back half of

153
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 2: the round came with the last two picks the Niners.

154
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 2: Maybe a little foreshadowing at what we see happen with

155
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: their wide receiver room take a wide out. Not Ady Mitchell,

156
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 2: it's Ricky Piersall.

157
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 3: I think this is Kyle Shanahan's replied to the way

158
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 3: that teams were playing them. One of the things that

159
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 3: I tweeted out I caught some flag for it. I

160
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: felt like the San Francisco forty nine ers had playmakers,

161
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: not route runners, and in games when teams were able

162
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: to play man to man, they had problems getting away.

163
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 3: In the Super Bowl, they couldn't get away from the

164
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 3: corners and man and man when you couldn't use the

165
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 3: threat of play action in those things. And even though

166
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 3: Brandon Ayuk is a much better route runner in my

167
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: mind than Deebo Samuel, they still needed someone that can

168
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: get open and win those one on ones. Ricky Pearsow

169
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: is a dynamic route runner. He is terrific working and

170
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 3: creating separation from defenders at the top of routes. He's

171
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 3: a fantastic ball catcher. He's a playmaker with the hint

172
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 3: when he gets it on the move, So he does

173
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 3: all of the things that the nine has required what

174
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 3: receivers to do. But I think he's an upper echelon

175
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,079
Speaker 3: route runner. To me, this mice signal that Brandon Ayuk

176
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 3: is on his way out the door and they're replacing

177
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 3: him with a route runner and similar company in terms

178
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 3: of being able to create space and get open because

179
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel is a get the ball, get open, get

180
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: out the way, Brandon Ayuk was a designated route runner.

181
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 3: Ricky Pearsall could feel that void if they move on

182
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 3: from Brandon.

183
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 2: Knight, incredible athlete forty two in a forty yard dashtime

184
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 2: at the combine. Blew up there, and obviously nobody blew

185
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 2: up more than Xavier Worthy at the combine. Who does

186
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 2: go in the first round? Chiefs trade up from thirty

187
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 2: two to get him at twenty eight, So it went

188
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: Xavier Worthy was the fifth wide receiver off the board,

189
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: Pierce All the sixth, and then we got a seventh

190
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: picked thirty two, which originally was the Chiefs, then the Bills,

191
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: then it's the Panthers who come up one spot from

192
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: Day two to Day one and make Xavier Leget the

193
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: sixth seventh wide receiver off the board in Night one.

194
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: So real intriguing pick there. A big, physical, fast receiver,

195
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 2: you know, gives the Carolina Panthers just something that they

196
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: didn't have, which was a go to dude, a guy

197
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 2: that blew up at South Carolina this year. So big

198
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 2: moves by that new regime there at Carolina to make

199
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: that move up and actually didn't cost him that much.

200
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 2: Essentially swapped a fifth and sixth rounder to move up

201
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 2: from Day two to day one, plus they get the

202
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: extra fifth year option on the gap.

203
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I think it's more so about getting the

204
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 3: player that you want to There's obvious that Dan Morgan

205
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 3: and Drew can Allis had a plan or they have

206
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 3: a plan for how they want their wide receiver recorded

207
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 3: look and how they want to help elevate Bryce Young

208
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 3: and Xavier leget. You get a big body playmaker, a

209
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 3: guy who had a breakout season a year ago. Look,

210
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 3: he can handle it in the deep air portion of

211
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 3: the field, but also being able to catch the ball

212
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 3: on the move, break tackles the physical presence, we think

213
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 3: about what they're trying to do. Deontay Johnson comes over.

214
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 3: Adam Thielen, who was really terrific for them last year,

215
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 3: but you needed a younger presence and maybe Jonathanmingo can

216
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 3: make a jump this year. They just wanted to make

217
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 3: sure they had a big body playmaker on the perimeter

218
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 3: that can expand the strike zone for the young quarterback

219
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: Bryce Young.

220
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 2: Okay, just look at some intriguing picks there to us

221
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 2: when we come back here on move the sticks. We'll

222
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 2: get you our Day one winners and biggest surprises from

223
00:10:55,040 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 2: day one right after this here, I'll move the sticks. Okay,

224
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 2: So a lot of intriguing picks there, Day one winners.

225
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 2: I'll kick this off. I don't see, and I'll take

226
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: the low hanging fruit here. I don't see how you

227
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 2: look anywhere beyond the Chicago Bears, who get their quarterback

228
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 2: wide receiver combo of the future. Pair it up Doonza

229
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 2: at nine, a pair with Caleb Williams at one, and

230
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 2: now you throw out loven Personnel, oh Man, DJ Moore,

231
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 2: Keenan Allen. Got to have that, and they support their

232
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,319
Speaker 2: young quarterback with the ninth pick. So big time opportunity

233
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 2: there for Chicago to turn the tide on offense. You

234
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 2: got another Day one winner.

235
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 3: I do have another Day one winning. I'm gonna stay

236
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 3: right there in the division to NFC North. Let's go

237
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: to Minnesota Vikings. Minnesota Vikers. We're able to get the

238
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 3: quarterback of the future and JJ McCarthy. And then they

239
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 3: come right back at Dallas Turner and JJ McCarthy. They

240
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 3: get a winner. They get like someone who's a proven winner,

241
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 3: a selfless player. And I think it's really important for

242
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 3: Kevin O'Connell in terms of the locker room make sure

243
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 3: that someone fit is in low ego player gay That

244
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 3: is really just about the dub So I like that

245
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 3: part of it. But then to be able to get

246
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 3: Dallas when we no one speculated, no one really thought

247
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 3: that he would be available in the teams, they're able

248
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 3: to give him and Brian Frie's defense, which is an aggressive,

249
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 3: a taxtile defense where he will create opportunities for Turner

250
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 3: to have one on one on the outside. Great move.

251
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 3: You come into the draft saying, hey, we want to

252
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 3: make sure we get the quarterback, get an edge rusher.

253
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 3: You were able to check out both boxes.

254
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 2: They nailed biggest surprises from day one. I imagine you're

255
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: with me on this when we talked about you know,

256
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 2: Penix and that's low hanging fruit, right, we nailed that.

257
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: Brock Bowers thirteen to the Raiders, who took a tight

258
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 2: end to thirty five last year in Michael Mayer. I mean,

259
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: there wasn't a pick in this draft that screamed we're

260
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 2: taking the best player available on our board, more than

261
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 2: Tom Telasco and Antonio Pierce going to get the number

262
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 2: one tight end in the class.

263
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: And you know, everyone theorizes about all we're gonna take

264
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 3: the best play you'r available, best play you're available, But

265
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: it always happens that to pick Matt is the biggest need.

266
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 3: The Raiders didn't have a need at tight end, but

267
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 3: they took the best player. And I would imagine if

268
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 3: we were in the Raiders draft room, we were looking

269
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 3: at the board, brock Bowers was head and showed ers

270
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 3: above everybody else that was available at that pick. So

271
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 3: for them to take it means to me that Tom

272
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 3: t Lesko said, hey, let's just put together the best

273
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: roster that we can put together, and then it's on

274
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 3: the coaches to figure out a way to play them,

275
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 3: even though they took Michael Meyer a year ago. Yeah.

276
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 3: Now you talk about a terrific two tight end package

277
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 3: that will allow them to run the football, which is

278
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 3: difficult to match up with from a defensive standpoint. And

279
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 3: if you're going to play the season with Garner Minshew

280
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 3: or Aidan O'Connell, Okay, we got to figure out a

281
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 3: way to lighten the load of responsibility on them. The

282
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 3: twelve personnel could allow them to be a more physical team,

283
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 3: a little more traditional when it comes to running, so

284
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 3: they don't have to throw it thirty five to forty

285
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 3: times a game.

286
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I sure thought when the quarterbacks were gone, you know,

287
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 2: if Pennix wasn't there, that you know, maybe they might

288
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: shift their focus to offensive tackle. Had some good ones

289
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 2: out there, Fuangatanu, you know that whole crew was still available.

290
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 3: But I bet you Todd Bowers rated probably as a

291
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 3: top five player.

292
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was such couldn't be such a.

293
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 3: Huge difference between him and the other guys that you

294
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: just can't pass it up. If that's your philosophy to

295
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 3: take the best player available.

296
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 2: All right, there you go. That's a quick, little rapid
