0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>To a remove Dolan deep speedways, Peace do Pas.

0:00:05.760 --> 0:00:10.400
<v Speaker 2>From the Baptist Health Studios inside the Baptist Health Training Complex.

0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:18.440
<v Speaker 2>This is Drivetime with Travis Wingfield. He's got my advans

0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 2>in the playoffs. What is up Dolphins? And welcome to

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.840
<v Speaker 2>the Draft Time Podcast. I am your host, Travis Wingfield,

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.040
<v Speaker 2>And on today's show we are answering your questions via

0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 2>the Twitter and mailbag. We'll talk about the quarterback tears,

0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:39.680
<v Speaker 2>if you want to call it that, in the National

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Football League, Jalen Waddles contract extension, what the Dolphins could

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.600
<v Speaker 2>do the rest of the summer to upgrade the roster

0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:48.919
<v Speaker 2>who's been so impressive so far. We'll talk about movies.

0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk about the Seattle Mariners, and a whole bunch

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 2>more that's coming up today on this edition of the

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.600
<v Speaker 2>Draft Time Podcast. From the Baptist Hell Studios inside the

0:00:56.640 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Baptist Hill Training Complex. This is the DT Podcasts. It

0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:05.560
<v Speaker 2>has been a while since we heard from you, so

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:07.800
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to open up the Twitter mailbag here on

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 2>this Friday edition of the Draft Time Podcast. And we

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 2>are off of week two of OTA practice reports. Next

0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 2>week we'll be with you guys on Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 2>and then pivot to two episodes per week, and we

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.640
<v Speaker 2>have some really fun summer content planned for you all

0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:23.720
<v Speaker 2>here on Drivetime. So I thought this was a great

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 2>chance to put some user questions on all things Dolphins, fatherhood,

0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.679
<v Speaker 2>four irons, to keep up with the f alliteration, and

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 2>everything in between. I put out the call on social.

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 2>You guys responded strong. I think I had like forty

0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>five replies, So thank you for that. Let's go ahead

0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 2>and pick it up right here, because this first question

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:44.399
<v Speaker 2>gets us into the one news item of the day.

0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:47.560
<v Speaker 2>The Jalen Wattle contract extension, which over a five year

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 2>period that will keep him in Miami through at least

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty eight, is essentially an a apy of twenty

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.160
<v Speaker 2>one million dollars per year. It gets Wattle his bag,

0:01:59.360 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 2>it's most guaranteed, seventy six out of like the eighty

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.400
<v Speaker 2>five money. Eighty five million dollars he gets is guaranteed,

0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 2>and if you look at the cat breakdown, essentially it's

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:10.080
<v Speaker 2>pretty cheap for the next couple of years, and then

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 2>there's some big money years at the end of the contract.

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:15.359
<v Speaker 2>But when you factor in the guys are gonna get

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 2>paid here coming up pretty soon like a C. D.

0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Lamb or a T. Higgins or a Brandon Ayuk or

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:23.359
<v Speaker 2>a Justin Jefferson or a Jamar Chase in five years,

0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.600
<v Speaker 2>that thirty three million dollar cap hit might be actually

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 2>a pretty good deal for the Dolphins. So we'll see

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 2>what happens when we get there. But the Dolphins go

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:30.720
<v Speaker 2>back to the well, they extend one of their own

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:33.639
<v Speaker 2>and the first question here from at Clay Smith underscore

0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 2>ten says over under three point five extensions before week one?

0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.800
<v Speaker 2>He says four with two, oh, Waddle Holland and David

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 2>Long and those would be my picks too, already have

0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 2>one down, So I think that that's a good way

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:50.119
<v Speaker 2>to you know, kick off the podcast here. But the Dolphins,

0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:52.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, have put themselves in this position to take

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 2>care of their own guys, right, and they've done a

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:58.040
<v Speaker 2>good job of creating flexibility down the road and prioritize

0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:00.720
<v Speaker 2>certain guys at premium positions that we have his draft picks.

0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Right defensive tackle wasn't that spot, and right guard wasn't

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>that spot. But it started the quarterback. We'll see when

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:07.920
<v Speaker 2>that happens. It's going to happen eventually. The right tackle

0:03:08.080 --> 0:03:10.800
<v Speaker 2>is done. Austin Jackson got his extension last year, and

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 2>then now our star receiver has his second contract after

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.600
<v Speaker 2>becoming the first Dolphin to begin his career with three

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 2>consecutive one thousand yard seasons. We've seen him as a

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.480
<v Speaker 2>rookie operate effectively in a role that was entirely different

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 2>than what he did in college and the last two

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.640
<v Speaker 2>years a possession receiver who ran most of his routes

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:32.919
<v Speaker 2>to a stagnant finish or coming back to the line

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 2>of scrimmage, and that wasn't really his game. And all

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>he did was embrace that role, catch over one hundred

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 2>balls for over one thousand yards, and pretty much be

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 2>the only guy in the twenty twenty one offense from

0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 2>a skill player standpoint that you can count on. Then

0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:49.160
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty two he's back to what makes him

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 2>a special player and he comes very close to fourteen

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:55.360
<v Speaker 2>hundred yards, and then last year another thousand yards, but

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.240
<v Speaker 2>does that missing a few games and saw the production

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:00.480
<v Speaker 2>go down at TAD as a result, But make no mistake,

0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.440
<v Speaker 2>one of the game's best receivers. I think he's a

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:04.480
<v Speaker 2>top ten receiver. Been saying it since his rookie season

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 2>when we didn't give him enough chances with all the

0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:09.720
<v Speaker 2>routes that he got open on that season in a

0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 2>really poorly designed offense that year. He's a dog. He

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 2>outworks everyone around him. He plays with the major edge

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 2>to him that I absolutely love. He's all about the team.

0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.919
<v Speaker 2>His teammates love him. He saw Ramsey Hill, all the

0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:22.920
<v Speaker 2>boys came out and supported him on social media, and

0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.680
<v Speaker 2>the news got announced on Thursday morning. The speed is

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 2>what obviously jumps off the tape, but it's the nuance

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.599
<v Speaker 2>in his route running like all great receivers to me,

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 2>that makes him really different and stand out from his peers.

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Subtle moves headnots leans. The ability though, to accelerate off

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:40.679
<v Speaker 2>of cuts. I talked about it on Twitter with Brett

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Coleman regarding Chris Johnson and Devon a Chian. The ability

0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:47.080
<v Speaker 2>to accelerate off of a cut means you better arrive

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 2>and square him up because if you don't, you're gonna

0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 2>get an eighty four yard touchdown like he had against

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 2>the Packers a couple of years ago. And that's where

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>I think he maximizes his separation and then of course

0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:59.160
<v Speaker 2>leaves defenders in the Dust. Great deal for the Dolphins,

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.039
<v Speaker 2>as they now have Water Tyreek, two of the game's

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:03.880
<v Speaker 2>very best locked up for the foreseeable future. Also, there

0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:05.719
<v Speaker 2>was a story about Tyreek trying to get a contract

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:08.159
<v Speaker 2>extension here at the Miami Dolphins, which to me says

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 2>he's not thinking about retirement anytime soon. And Wattle being

0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:13.520
<v Speaker 2>here through twenty twenty eight, you hope that Tyreek is

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 2>also going to you know, keep his career going that

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.719
<v Speaker 2>long too. And again it comes ahead of some big

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.880
<v Speaker 2>time a receiver contracts that will come up here on

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.359
<v Speaker 2>the market very soon. So great question. My answer to

0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 2>that is I take the over also, and I like

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:26.599
<v Speaker 2>the names that you gave me there, although I'll probably

0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:29.800
<v Speaker 2>switch out Phillips for Javon Holland. All Right, this next

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:32.279
<v Speaker 2>one is going to be a long one at the

0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:35.920
<v Speaker 2>realist one, but it's an zero to three. Where would

0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 2>you rank tu today among all starting quarterbacks? And I'm

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 2>glad you had this question because I see rankings and

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 2>lists all the time, and I am pretty good about

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 2>just you know, staying out of what I typically find

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 2>to be an unproductive conversation. But I think this provides

0:05:50.560 --> 0:05:53.280
<v Speaker 2>a good platform to kind of spell this out how

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 2>I see fit. I do think you can evaluate each

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 2>quarterback against one another, but I don't think it's done

0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 2>the right way. For example, well, I saw a tweet

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.280
<v Speaker 2>from Patriots camp and I cannot remember if it was

0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>a fan or a beat rider. Those lines seem to

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.279
<v Speaker 2>get blurred more and more by the day, but it

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 2>was Joe Milton throwing a football as he as far

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.839
<v Speaker 2>as he can, right, and the caption was, Joe Milton

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 2>is going to be a problem, And I'm like, since friggin'

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.280
<v Speaker 2>win man. That's like watching a long drive competition and

0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:20.640
<v Speaker 2>being like, this guy is gonna win majors. Yeah, a

0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:22.919
<v Speaker 2>long driver has literally never even won a PGA if

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 2>maybe they have, but they're not winning majors, and they're

0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:27.279
<v Speaker 2>not doing it often because distance in length is not

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 2>like a great golfer the way throwing a football eighty

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 2>five yards does not really mean a whole lot either.

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.919
<v Speaker 2>Now does arms strength have value, of course it does,

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:37.080
<v Speaker 2>of course it does. The ability to make more throws

0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.040
<v Speaker 2>to more areas of the field and be later on

0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:42.559
<v Speaker 2>said throws with the ability to hit them. Of course

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>there is value in that. But also pull up the

0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.719
<v Speaker 2>tape and Tua is fitting super tight windows down the

0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:49.920
<v Speaker 2>field all the time. He was thirty in the NFL

0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:52.120
<v Speaker 2>last year in big time throws a PFF stat that

0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:56.119
<v Speaker 2>measures tight windows vertical throws down the field way more

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 2>than a lot of quarterbacks who have stronger arms than him.

0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 2>For instance, Justin Herd had way less big time throws

0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 2>last year than two a Donga bai Loa. And this

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:05.800
<v Speaker 2>isn't some take on Two's arm strength. It's not the

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 2>best in the NFL. It's far from the worst. I mean,

0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Jamie Moyer pitched in the big league for twenty seven

0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>years and barely ever topped ninety miles an hour. I

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 2>just want to get that out of the way, because

0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:17.640
<v Speaker 2>there isn't a single decision maker who is employed who

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 2>thinks that way about Joe Milton throwing long balls on

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 2>air and camp thinking this is going to be a problem.

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 2>No one thinks that way. I think there's a massive

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 2>disconnect from how NFL teams think about quarterback play and

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 2>how Twitter users, for instance, think of it. Command knowledge,

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 2>a coach in the huddle, reliable, dependable, same guy every day.

0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there are countless intangibles that translate to having

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 2>the ball get to where it needs to be when

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 2>it needs to get there. And we've seen Tua get

0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 2>better at that every single year really since his first

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:47.520
<v Speaker 2>year at Bama. Hell, go watch the National championship when

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:49.880
<v Speaker 2>he came in a halftime two was running like RPOs

0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 2>and scrambling and making plays off script. Get to his

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 2>final year at Bama and no, there's more processing, there's

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 2>more anticipation. He became a better quarterback, just like he's

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.080
<v Speaker 2>done as a pro. And why I think he'll just

0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 2>get better every year from here. For his skills are

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:08.120
<v Speaker 2>ones that improve, they don't regress. So that's one part

0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:10.960
<v Speaker 2>of it. The other part and actually Brett Coleman, again

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 2>coming up on the podcast twice today, tweeted this and

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 2>articulated it better than I ever could. So let's go

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 2>ahead and read the tweet from Brett said, some people

0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 2>seem to think you can only pay a quarterback if

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 2>they are top ten or else it's an overpay. But

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.000
<v Speaker 2>how many consistently top ten quarterbacks are there? The number

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:27.960
<v Speaker 2>isn't ten any given year, there are fifteen to sixteen

0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:30.400
<v Speaker 2>guys who can argue for being top ten quarterbacks in

0:08:30.440 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 2>that single year. But the number of quarterbacks who can

0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:35.200
<v Speaker 2>be argued as top ten every year for four plus

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 2>year stretch is maybe six guys. There's no shame in

0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.120
<v Speaker 2>not having one of those six guys. Sure it would

0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:43.880
<v Speaker 2>be nice, but that's just not realistic. Pay the guy

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 2>who can be top ten if you build things around

0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:47.559
<v Speaker 2>them the right way. You really don't want to find

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.960
<v Speaker 2>out what happens when you let them go, really well,

0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>said Brett, and I think this is so spot on.

0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I think opinions and evaluations are way too rigid and

0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.520
<v Speaker 2>become two ingrained and for two a sake, some people

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.800
<v Speaker 2>I think are still stuck to his twenty twenty and

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:05.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty one campaigns, which weren't even that bad. I

0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:06.439
<v Speaker 2>saw a tweet he went six and three of the

0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:08.840
<v Speaker 2>head coach that hated him, with Devonte parker's' top receiver

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 2>on one hamstring and a running back corps that was

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:15.440
<v Speaker 2>topped by Ryan Fitzpatrick in Rushing Yards of the Year previously.

0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 2>But I digress. And then because he was playing an

0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 2>awesome ball. Now it has to be because of Tyreek

0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:23.880
<v Speaker 2>or McDaniel or anything that's not to because it can't

0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 2>possibly be him, because we saw it in twenty twenty

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:27.920
<v Speaker 2>one when it wasn't as good, even though to a

0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.320
<v Speaker 2>shrad of the Jets a top five defense without Tyreek

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:34.920
<v Speaker 2>last year. But once again I digress. The rankings are fluid.

0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:37.840
<v Speaker 2>They should always stay that way. Players change, circumstances, change

0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 2>the way teams defend guys changes to bring it to

0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 2>another sport. You guys know I love the Mariners. Julio Rodriguez,

0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.120
<v Speaker 2>the menor center fielder, was awesome his first two years.

0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.839
<v Speaker 2>Through three hundred games. His numbers were comparable to Kenriford, Junior,

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:53.200
<v Speaker 2>Mike Trout, all those dudes. This year, teams have figured

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 2>out that if you pitch him soft away and then

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 2>pound him in hard, he has a tough time adjusting

0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 2>to those fastballs in off the plate. So where do

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:02.960
<v Speaker 2>you rank Julio? Is he the six to fifteen OPS

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 2>guy he's been the first two months of this season,

0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 2>or is he the eight to fifty OPS All Star

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.040
<v Speaker 2>he was his first two years. It's kind of the

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:11.120
<v Speaker 2>same thing as Odell. I feel like it's super in

0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>vogue right now. Say that the Odell Beckham's best days

0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:15.200
<v Speaker 2>are behind him, and they probably are. But you aren't

0:10:15.240 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 2>doing it right if you're not watching his tape and

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.320
<v Speaker 2>seeing that guy can still absolutely go and has an

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:24.120
<v Speaker 2>absolutely electric rep within him. So to me, there are

0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.439
<v Speaker 2>two quarterbacks who are a different plane than the rest

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:28.079
<v Speaker 2>of the National Football League. I know you guys don't

0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 2>want to hear this, but they are Patrick Mahomes and

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen. Then there's a group of guys that are

0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:35.040
<v Speaker 2>on the precipice, but the questions around them are valid

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.040
<v Speaker 2>enough to keep them away from that Mahomes and Allan

0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Teer who both those guys. Quite frankly, I don't have

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:42.120
<v Speaker 2>many questions about I know Alan Nick's bad decisions and

0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 2>turns of ball over, but he is just comes back

0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:47.160
<v Speaker 2>and keeps coming back and keeps producing even after bad plays.

0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 2>The guys in the next category from me are Lamar Jackson.

0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.440
<v Speaker 2>His inconsistencies and how he sees the field and his

0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:54.240
<v Speaker 2>availability are the concerns. Joe Burrow, He's missed more games

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 2>than two out of his career. There you go. He

0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 2>also starts the year very slow the last two years.

0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.440
<v Speaker 2>Matthew Stafford availability, he's been an issue for him right

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 2>and then Tua is also in that group for me,

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 2>and his ability his availability is a question even after

0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:07.520
<v Speaker 2>last year and his ability to finish and play strong

0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:11.320
<v Speaker 2>in big games, which is I understand that the concern there,

0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:13.720
<v Speaker 2>even though context tells you there's It's better than it

0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 2>looks to the eye. Now, if Tua makes one run,

0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:18.000
<v Speaker 2>he jumps to the top of the list to me,

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 2>and I know I'd be called crazy by a lot

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 2>of people for that list, and people that do not

0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.120
<v Speaker 2>work in NFL buildings. So I'm totally fine with that.

0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:27.200
<v Speaker 2>But like the Ringer bros. Who just see six foot five,

0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:30.040
<v Speaker 2>big am and can run, I just value other things.

0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:33.199
<v Speaker 2>So this next group is right there, right there for me,

0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.360
<v Speaker 2>right up against that first group. Two of them are

0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:38.000
<v Speaker 2>guys I essentially have in the next tier, but I

0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.160
<v Speaker 2>need to see one more season of it, and they

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 2>are stroud and love two quarterbacks that I could not

0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 2>rave about enough as prospects. And look, I know bragging's

0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.160
<v Speaker 2>on a good look, but I kind of feel like

0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 2>it's worth spelling out here that my track record of

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 2>quarterback evaluations should make you take my Tua projections more seriously.

0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:55.959
<v Speaker 2>But if you're here, you probably already do, so who

0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:58.440
<v Speaker 2>the hell are you talking to? And I don't know. Also,

0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:00.480
<v Speaker 2>in that group and Actually, you know what, I'm gonna

0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and separate back groups. Next is Stroud in Love.

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 2>But the group after that for me is Kyler Murray,

0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Dak Prescott, Justin Herbert, and Trevor Lawrence. The next tier

0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:13.800
<v Speaker 2>for me is Jalen Hurts, Jared Goff, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers,

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:16.520
<v Speaker 2>and Brock Purdy. And actually I probably would I'd probably

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.320
<v Speaker 2>keep Purtty closer to the other side of that list.

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:20.320
<v Speaker 2>He's on the back end of that. And for posterity,

0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 2>I think Anthony Richardson is going to fly up lists

0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:25.000
<v Speaker 2>this year. So for the total POSTERI let's go ahead

0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.080
<v Speaker 2>and go thirty two to one for me. In my

0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.640
<v Speaker 2>top quarterbacks that I see it going into twenty twenty four,

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 2>number thirty two. J J. McCarthy, bo Nicks is next,

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Bryce Young, Daniel Jones, will Levis, Jaden Daniels, Yeah, Jaden

0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:43.199
<v Speaker 2>Daniels j Yeah, Drake May Gardner Minshew is my twenty

0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.280
<v Speaker 2>five through thirty two. Then Derek Carrs twenty four. I

0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:48.680
<v Speaker 2>have Caleb Williams twenty three. He'll probably jump up higher

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:52.199
<v Speaker 2>than that. Russell Wilson twenty two, Deshaun Watson, twenty one,

0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 2>and Baker Mayfield rounds out. He's number twenty rounds out

0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:00.440
<v Speaker 2>the top. The bottom twelve. Gino Smith is nineteen, Anthony

0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Richardson eighteen. I think he jumps up big this year,

0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:05.559
<v Speaker 2>brock Perty seventeen, Kirk Cousins and Aaron Rodgers and Jared

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Goff Jalen Hurts and Jared Goff is sixteen, fifteen, fourteen thirteen.

0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Then my top twelve is Lawrence Herbert and Kyler twelve eleven, ten.

0:13:14.000 --> 0:13:17.000
<v Speaker 2>Then the nine through seven category dak Love and Stroud

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:19.280
<v Speaker 2>and then Tua I have at number six. I would

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:23.200
<v Speaker 2>be totally okay if you want to drop two spots

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.480
<v Speaker 2>to eight and move them back behind Stroud Love, I

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.199
<v Speaker 2>just think too, it's not for longer than those two

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:30.640
<v Speaker 2>guys have in similar ways. And then Lamar, Burrow, Stafford,

0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Allen and Mahomes are my top five quarterbacks. Sound good,

0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:35.800
<v Speaker 2>all right, So let's go ahead and put a pennant

0:13:35.880 --> 0:13:37.440
<v Speaker 2>right there. Come back on the other side and keep

0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:40.320
<v Speaker 2>answering your questions on the Dolphin. On the Drivetime mail bag,

0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:43.120
<v Speaker 2>your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Auto Nation.

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.120
<v Speaker 2>We go back to the Twitter mail bag here with

0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 2>my good buddy ghost of Adam Gaze who asked this question.

0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:53.640
<v Speaker 2>With Riisner signed with the Vikings and the offensive line

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.280
<v Speaker 2>concerns of the twenty twenty three seasons still lingering, does

0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Miami address the O line post June one with another

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.440
<v Speaker 2>veteran or is the team content on not replacing Hunt

0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:04.680
<v Speaker 2>and confident there guys will step up. I feel like

0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 2>this is the primary thing I see on Dolphin's Twitter recently.

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:10.000
<v Speaker 2>And let me just first start by saying this, if

0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:13.480
<v Speaker 2>there's a situation where an injury or two occurs on

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.200
<v Speaker 2>the interior, I can see where the major concern over

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:19.160
<v Speaker 2>depth comes into play. No argument out of me on

0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:21.560
<v Speaker 2>that standpoint. But can we get one thing clear about

0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Dalton Reisner? And I say this as a guy that

0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:25.760
<v Speaker 2>was a huge fan of him coming out of Kansas State.

0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 2>This is a guy that's been on the market every

0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 2>year late into the year every year. You ever ask

0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 2>yourself why in the league that is in a depression

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 2>of quality offensive line play? Because, first off, the tape

0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.120
<v Speaker 2>is mediocre. Have you guys watched the Dalton Riismer tape.

0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 2>It's not great. It's okay, it's fine. Second, the fit

0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:48.520
<v Speaker 2>is not great. Either and third some inside baseball. He's

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 2>an absolute knucklehead. You're just gonna have to trust me

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:52.960
<v Speaker 2>in the last part. But it's what I know, So

0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 2>just keep that in mind.

0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Please.

0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:58.000
<v Speaker 2>Now I would be all over Greg van Rotin. I

0:14:58.040 --> 0:14:59.640
<v Speaker 2>still think that's the play there. But I'm telling you,

0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.040
<v Speaker 2>you guys are going to have to get used to

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 2>the offensive line not being this team's top priority. Every

0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:06.080
<v Speaker 2>team takes shortcuts because that's how the sellar cap demands

0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 2>you do it. For the Dolphins, it's the offensive line.

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:10.400
<v Speaker 2>For the Niners, it's the offensive line. For the Packers,

0:15:10.440 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 2>it's the offensive line. It's just not how the scheme

0:15:12.840 --> 0:15:15.280
<v Speaker 2>is built. And I get the end of season struggles.

0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.200
<v Speaker 2>I do. I promise you I do. Watching Lester Cotton

0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.000
<v Speaker 2>miss a landmark for the fourteenth time in a row,

0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:22.000
<v Speaker 2>or Liam Meikenberg trip over the turf Monster for the

0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.760
<v Speaker 2>twelfth time in a row, costing us big runs, it sucked.

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Trust me, I get it. But this is also the

0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:29.360
<v Speaker 2>number one offense in the National Football despite having the

0:15:29.360 --> 0:15:31.800
<v Speaker 2>most o line combinations in the NFL last year. And

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.560
<v Speaker 2>they did all of that despite all those fan concerns.

0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:36.800
<v Speaker 2>I told the story about toront Armstead's injury in Houston

0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:39.080
<v Speaker 2>in training camp last year, and Kendall Lamb stepping in,

0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.560
<v Speaker 2>and nobody thought we could survive Lamb at left tackle.

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Nobody thought Austin Jackson deserved the right tackle job, nobody

0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:47.440
<v Speaker 2>thought Isaiah Winn belonged with the starters. And yet all

0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.720
<v Speaker 2>three of those guys played really, really well last year,

0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 2>and when we had the line mostly fully healthy, we

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 2>literally set records for most amount of yards through X

0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 2>amount of weeks. And then, of course Connor and is

0:15:57.640 --> 0:15:59.760
<v Speaker 2>Isaiah get hurt in the Philly game, and that's where

0:15:59.760 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 2>things kind of pivoted back a little bit at that

0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 2>point of the year. So I guess my plea is

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.160
<v Speaker 2>to just trust, just have faith. I mean, they did

0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.480
<v Speaker 2>sign to Ron Armstead, that was a big ticket item.

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:11.560
<v Speaker 2>They did sign Connor Williams a big free agent. They

0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:14.040
<v Speaker 2>went out and got Isaiah win last year. They drafted

0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Patrick Paul in the second round. I don't think it's

0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 2>fair to lump Austin and Rob and here as to

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.920
<v Speaker 2>high draft picks, because they were both before McDaniel got here.

0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:22.600
<v Speaker 2>But it's not like they totally neglected altogether. They just

0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.520
<v Speaker 2>don't value offensive line the way other teams do. And

0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:27.960
<v Speaker 2>there's a reason for that. They know what they can

0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:30.920
<v Speaker 2>get and cannot get away with, and it's more important

0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.280
<v Speaker 2>to have dynamic skill players, and it is to vest

0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:35.400
<v Speaker 2>in the offensive line, a group that is outmatched by

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:38.400
<v Speaker 2>the defensive line every single week for every single team

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:40.720
<v Speaker 2>in the National Football League. Once again, I would sign

0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Greg Van Rodin. But that's just me. Let's go ahead

0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:44.760
<v Speaker 2>and run some audio here from Chris First or the

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.320
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco forty Niners offensive line coach, who talked about

0:16:47.320 --> 0:16:51.320
<v Speaker 2>this and how their system values skill players over offensive line.

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 2>I think every Dolphins fan needs to hear this.

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:55.760
<v Speaker 1>Now there's a line and this is what I always

0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 1>say with the offensive line play, and this is cool discussion.

0:16:58.000 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I love this discussion.

0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:02.560
<v Speaker 1>There's a line below which that with offensive line play

0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.439
<v Speaker 1>that if you just drop a little bit below it,

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:08.280
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a gaping hole. It's just all of a sudden,

0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.360
<v Speaker 1>you're like, he can't block anybody, And now we got

0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 1>a major problem. As long as they're at that line

0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.520
<v Speaker 1>and just above it, you can get you can survive it,

0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:18.919
<v Speaker 1>and you can take care of We've got ways with

0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:20.560
<v Speaker 1>our system, we can chip, we can do all sorts

0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:22.959
<v Speaker 1>of things to help guys, slidelines, double team, the best

0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.440
<v Speaker 1>rush around the team. There's so many mechanisms to help

0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:29.040
<v Speaker 1>alignment that if a guy can't get open, if a

0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:30.680
<v Speaker 1>guy can't catch the ball right, that's way I'm problem.

0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:32.440
<v Speaker 1>But an offensive line plate, you gotta be careful. You

0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:34.200
<v Speaker 1>got to have those six, seven, eight guys that are

0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:36.920
<v Speaker 1>just at that line are above And that's that's the challenge.

0:17:37.040 --> 0:17:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Where's that line in the draft? Is that the third round,

0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 1>second round, fourth round, fifth when's that line where all

0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:43.000
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden the tackles have dried up, the guards

0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:45.160
<v Speaker 1>have dried up. Now you're talking about drafting backup players,

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.200
<v Speaker 1>which is fine. They're backup players, but they're not gonna

0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:48.919
<v Speaker 1>be long term starts for your team. And that's the

0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 1>that's the challenge for me, because eventually the guys that

0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:55.479
<v Speaker 1>can run a score touchdowns run out. They're not there anymore.

0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:58.280
<v Speaker 1>So you have to find those quality starters at other positions.

0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>And you got to be right because oftentimes when you

0:18:00.720 --> 0:18:03.399
<v Speaker 1>draft a lineman in the fourth or fifth round, there

0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:05.400
<v Speaker 1>might be a guy that could come in immediately, contribute

0:18:05.400 --> 0:18:08.200
<v Speaker 1>on special teams, contribute to be a backup linebacker, safety,

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:11.000
<v Speaker 1>and those that's where so I'm not okay, we didn't

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:12.399
<v Speaker 1>driving first sec. We got to take somebody in the

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 1>fourth round here because they got five guys, got five

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:14.600
<v Speaker 1>holes to fill.

0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:18.280
<v Speaker 2>So so yeah, like again last year, late in the year,

0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:19.800
<v Speaker 2>when there were certain players in the lineup, I think

0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:21.359
<v Speaker 2>those guys were below the line. But as long as

0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:23.000
<v Speaker 2>you have enough guys above the line, I think the

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:25.080
<v Speaker 2>Dolphins have ten of those guys who are above the line.

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.840
<v Speaker 2>That's I mean, that's the whole idea. Like ten guys

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:30.080
<v Speaker 2>you can put out there and you can trust me

0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 2>to play good enough football to make this whole thing work.

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:34.439
<v Speaker 2>That was the idea of getting deeper at the position

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 2>and not being as worried about top of the line

0:18:36.640 --> 0:18:38.439
<v Speaker 2>guys who are probably gonna get hurt some point anyways,

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:39.680
<v Speaker 2>and you have to get into the depth. So let's

0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:43.879
<v Speaker 2>get better at eight through ten opposed to getting way

0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:46.680
<v Speaker 2>better at one through three, and then when those guys

0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 2>get hurt, you're back in the same spot. Right. Does

0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:50.600
<v Speaker 2>that makes sense? I hope it does. Next question at

0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Garrard thirteen. Your thoughts on three guys I'd like

0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:56.720
<v Speaker 2>to pursue post June one Quandre Diggs. I like his

0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:58.560
<v Speaker 2>ability to play deep and free up Holland to attack

0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 2>the ball more two Van Rote starting caliber right guard.

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.199
<v Speaker 2>Number three shack loss and might need a part time

0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:05.760
<v Speaker 2>d And to start the year. Excellent edge center versus

0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 2>the run. Yeah, heavy handed shack losson right first off.

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 2>I like all those players. I think Caandre Diggs is

0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:11.919
<v Speaker 2>my favorite of that group. He's one of the most

0:19:12.040 --> 0:19:13.680
<v Speaker 2>underrated players in the league for my money, and a

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:15.640
<v Speaker 2>position that excels and some of the things I think

0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:18.280
<v Speaker 2>I find most intriguing about a safety and quite frankly,

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.320
<v Speaker 2>the stuff that makes Javon Holland and Jordan Poyer are

0:19:20.359 --> 0:19:23.920
<v Speaker 2>so good and how they can anticipate and move before

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:26.879
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback makes his move. I think defensive back. The

0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:29.960
<v Speaker 2>defensive backfield here is incredibly deep, and I would agree

0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 2>that one area you could stand it at a body

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 2>is probably at safety. And we'll see how Nick Edams

0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:36.679
<v Speaker 2>transition there goes. But to your point, there's still so

0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:39.520
<v Speaker 2>many proven vets out there. It's a weird market, a

0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:41.200
<v Speaker 2>weird year for the safety market this year. I'm a

0:19:41.200 --> 0:19:42.840
<v Speaker 2>big fan of Van Roten. Like I mentioned, think he'd

0:19:42.840 --> 0:19:44.680
<v Speaker 2>be a nice fit here, and I'm not really sure

0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:47.040
<v Speaker 2>I agree on Shack. I think maybe his best days

0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:50.440
<v Speaker 2>are behind him, and I do think a progress stopper

0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:53.040
<v Speaker 2>in front of Chopper Kamara or quite frankly, I think

0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:55.040
<v Speaker 2>Grayson Murphy has a good shot to make the team

0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.480
<v Speaker 2>as well. So we know one thing. Though, Dolphins will

0:19:57.480 --> 0:19:59.600
<v Speaker 2>always be looking to make moves from now to cut

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:01.560
<v Speaker 2>down day, I think that some of the guys you

0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 2>mentioned there are going to be well within their thoughts

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and their potential plans at Hassan Patel, what's the toughest

0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:10.600
<v Speaker 2>part about being a dad? Any advice for someone who

0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:13.040
<v Speaker 2>will become a dad soon? I love this question. It's

0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.680
<v Speaker 2>a right turn from what we've just been talking about.

0:20:15.680 --> 0:20:17.439
<v Speaker 2>But I want to go ahead and first just cover this.

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:19.880
<v Speaker 2>My first piece of advice is a steal sleep anyway

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.479
<v Speaker 2>you can. I haven't slept a full night in years,

0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:25.960
<v Speaker 2>and it affects your everyday life. It does. My wife

0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:27.920
<v Speaker 2>is the same way too. If you have some downtime,

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 2>go find in that man. My next piece of advice

0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.040
<v Speaker 2>is to be a great resource for your partner, help

0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>them carry the load. Be spontaneous and where you help,

0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:38.119
<v Speaker 2>nothing's gonna make your partner happier than coming home and

0:20:38.160 --> 0:20:40.439
<v Speaker 2>seeing their to do list already wiped out. Do that

0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:42.840
<v Speaker 2>as much as you possibly can if you have the energy.

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.760
<v Speaker 2>My final and more important advice is to not listen

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:49.159
<v Speaker 2>to parenting advice from anybody. Every kid is incredibly different

0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:51.920
<v Speaker 2>and what works for you probably won't work for somebody else.

0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 2>You know what's best for your child, and you are

0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 2>the best parent for him or her. Most of my

0:20:57.359 --> 0:20:59.439
<v Speaker 2>advice is about making sure you put yourself in the

0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 2>best position to be a great dad, like sleeping, for instance,

0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:04.640
<v Speaker 2>but also make it a point to still do things

0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:07.840
<v Speaker 2>that make you happy. My first kid was born during

0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.240
<v Speaker 2>the pandemic, and that was a rough time because there

0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:12.359
<v Speaker 2>was not much I could do to take care of

0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:14.639
<v Speaker 2>my own mental and it was very stressful and I

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:17.320
<v Speaker 2>suffered from it. Your life is about to get a

0:21:17.359 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 2>lot more stressful, and for me, a one year old

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:23.840
<v Speaker 2>that I have without having family in South Florida, like

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:25.480
<v Speaker 2>it's just me and my wife. We're the only ones

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:28.400
<v Speaker 2>that can look after him, so it's constant stress and anxiety.

0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:32.119
<v Speaker 2>For you, it's gonna get more stressful, So find outlets

0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:35.119
<v Speaker 2>to help you destress, because that will make you a

0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:38.000
<v Speaker 2>better parent. Everybody on this podcast knows I dove deep

0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:40.560
<v Speaker 2>into golf, and whether it's a quick range session or

0:21:40.560 --> 0:21:42.600
<v Speaker 2>having a tea time to look forward to, it does

0:21:42.720 --> 0:21:45.360
<v Speaker 2>so much to help keep you sane when your kid

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.120
<v Speaker 2>is having a tough week and you're not sleeping much,

0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 2>or you're just listening to crying all the time, which

0:21:49.280 --> 0:21:53.000
<v Speaker 2>can definitely wear on you. Great question at Kevin MD

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:55.040
<v Speaker 2>four if you could choose any character from the Better

0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Call Saw Breaking Bad Universe to be the GM, who

0:21:57.359 --> 0:21:59.320
<v Speaker 2>would it be and why? I love this question. That's

0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 2>such a Kevin question too. It's got to be Gestavo free.

0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:04.760
<v Speaker 2>It just has to be right, because obviously you want intelligence.

0:22:04.840 --> 0:22:08.360
<v Speaker 2>But Walt is just too emotional and makes rash, selfish

0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:10.480
<v Speaker 2>decisions that are not well thought out, and I can

0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:12.520
<v Speaker 2>see him hanging on to a draft pick who isn't

0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:14.479
<v Speaker 2>working out just to try to prove a point that

0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 2>he was right right. Skyler tried out to be a

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.000
<v Speaker 2>pretty great boss, especially at the car washing and when

0:22:19.000 --> 0:22:21.760
<v Speaker 2>she got bogged On's torn down for his eyebrows that

0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:24.120
<v Speaker 2>was pretty great. But she might be the second choice

0:22:24.119 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 2>here where I think Lalos Salamanca was another guy that

0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:29.640
<v Speaker 2>comes to mind, but he's a little bit too rough

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:31.200
<v Speaker 2>around the edges. I think probably not a good player

0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:34.119
<v Speaker 2>relationship guy there. To me, it's Gus Fring because his

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:37.959
<v Speaker 2>foresight would allow us to build flexible contracts, to obtain

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:40.800
<v Speaker 2>future resources, to have plans ABC and D off of

0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:42.960
<v Speaker 2>the original plans. It's got to be Gus Fring. The

0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:45.840
<v Speaker 2>man built an entire underground lab and nobody knew he

0:22:45.880 --> 0:22:47.760
<v Speaker 2>did it. I think he could build a football team

0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the same way. At the fendalorian esque with a new

0:22:50.680 --> 0:22:53.359
<v Speaker 2>quarterback rule. Do you think it's more likely the Dolphins

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:55.520
<v Speaker 2>will keep only two quarterbacks on the fifty three or

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:57.719
<v Speaker 2>will they want to protect Scyt or Thompson and keep

0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:00.160
<v Speaker 2>three on the active roster. I think it's always why

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 2>to have three quarterbacks who have knowledge of your system,

0:23:03.280 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 2>especially when this is complex as Dolphins, and we're kind

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:07.600
<v Speaker 2>of lucky in that regard. Maybe luck is the wrong

0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:09.960
<v Speaker 2>word because they've prepared for this. They've developed Skyler for

0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:12.840
<v Speaker 2>three years now. Tua is obviously Tua, and then Mike

0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.120
<v Speaker 2>White in his second year in the system, but also

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:17.680
<v Speaker 2>came from an offense ran by Mike Lafleur, who's also

0:23:17.800 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 2>off the Shanahan Tree. So you have three guys that

0:23:20.359 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 2>I feel are equipped to at least keep the entire

0:23:24.240 --> 0:23:26.719
<v Speaker 2>playbook open for you if something were to happen to two,

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:29.119
<v Speaker 2>And then Mike White look at us in twenty twenty two,

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:31.600
<v Speaker 2>for instance, quarterback injuries were probably the difference between nine wins

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:33.880
<v Speaker 2>and eleven or twelve wins. Like, I think we would

0:23:33.880 --> 0:23:35.400
<v Speaker 2>have won a lot more games if to have played

0:23:35.400 --> 0:23:37.119
<v Speaker 2>every game that year. But then look at last year

0:23:37.160 --> 0:23:40.000
<v Speaker 2>the entire NFL was it eight teams had their quarterbacks

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:41.840
<v Speaker 2>start every single game, and we were one of them.

0:23:42.000 --> 0:23:44.719
<v Speaker 2>You have to be prepared to start multiple quarterbacks if

0:23:44.720 --> 0:23:46.720
<v Speaker 2>your starter goes down. Now, it'd be nice to not

0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:48.320
<v Speaker 2>have to pull someone off the street in the event

0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 2>something happens to Tua. Right, So, I personally love the

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 2>idea of keeping that pipeline full of guys that have

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:55.440
<v Speaker 2>been here and who can give you the entire offense

0:23:55.480 --> 0:23:56.960
<v Speaker 2>when they have to go into the game. And I

0:23:57.000 --> 0:23:59.359
<v Speaker 2>think there's value to that, even if I don't, you know,

0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 2>love the play or some of the quarterbacks. My vote

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:03.600
<v Speaker 2>is for all three because there's just the value of

0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:06.520
<v Speaker 2>that position and you don't want to get stuck starting

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:09.200
<v Speaker 2>a quarterback that just got signed off the street at

0:24:09.240 --> 0:24:11.439
<v Speaker 2>T Feeley one. How do the Fans get over their

0:24:11.440 --> 0:24:13.679
<v Speaker 2>third and one issues from last year? Do they have

0:24:13.720 --> 0:24:15.920
<v Speaker 2>the personnel stuff it down the middle for one yard?

0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:17.760
<v Speaker 2>Could they give it to Patrick Paul, let him smash

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:20.320
<v Speaker 2>into the defense for a yard or fall forward for

0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:23.600
<v Speaker 2>a yard? Well, I know one thing. I don't want

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:25.879
<v Speaker 2>to give Patrick Paul any touches, but I think he

0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:28.359
<v Speaker 2>could be a potential answer to some short yardge conversion

0:24:28.400 --> 0:24:30.840
<v Speaker 2>shortcomings we had a year ago. Honestly, and this might

0:24:30.880 --> 0:24:32.480
<v Speaker 2>not be the most popular thing among the fans to

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:34.000
<v Speaker 2>hear this, but I just feel like we have to

0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:36.880
<v Speaker 2>execute better. There were chances and we just didn't hit them.

0:24:36.920 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Like I think about the toss play and short yardage,

0:24:39.480 --> 0:24:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it was either Carolina or the Giants where we faked

0:24:41.960 --> 0:24:43.679
<v Speaker 2>the full back dive and then two like stood up

0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:45.879
<v Speaker 2>and threw a pass out wide to Raheem, but it

0:24:45.920 --> 0:24:48.119
<v Speaker 2>was they weren't on the same page and the ball

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.400
<v Speaker 2>trickled backwards out of bounds like a six yard loss.

0:24:50.440 --> 0:24:52.919
<v Speaker 2>Like that was wide open. Just execute it, man, And

0:24:52.920 --> 0:24:55.479
<v Speaker 2>I think that happened a few times on passing plays.

0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:58.280
<v Speaker 2>I've been long the tooth about how our inabilities separate

0:24:58.359 --> 0:25:00.760
<v Speaker 2>on the inside when it's not ten or seventeen. Needs

0:25:00.760 --> 0:25:04.080
<v Speaker 2>to get better well, enter Beckham Malik taj Johnnu, a

0:25:04.080 --> 0:25:06.040
<v Speaker 2>second year of Devon eight chan. I think we have

0:25:06.200 --> 0:25:08.760
<v Speaker 2>way more options outside of ten and seventeen to get

0:25:08.800 --> 0:25:11.560
<v Speaker 2>open in those spots. But back to Patrick Paul, one

0:25:11.640 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 2>way you can get better is to bring on an

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:15.840
<v Speaker 2>extra lineman and maybe they explore that. Maybe it's him,

0:25:15.840 --> 0:25:18.160
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's Kendall Lamb my votes for Patrick Paul. Maybe

0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 2>they don't do it at all, but it is an option.

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:22.720
<v Speaker 2>I love the idea of going heavy personnel and then

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:24.320
<v Speaker 2>you can run off of that and maybe you throw,

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:26.680
<v Speaker 2>maybe you throw Patrick Paul the old Jumbo Elliot route

0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:28.040
<v Speaker 2>in the end zone one of these times. Who knows,

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:29.760
<v Speaker 2>But I said, didn't want to give any touches, but

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:32.440
<v Speaker 2>there's a passing player there. I love quarterback sneaks. I

0:25:32.440 --> 0:25:35.120
<v Speaker 2>love the d Smyth sneak package. I like the Ingle

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 2>dive up the middle, and I think we have some

0:25:37.040 --> 0:25:39.880
<v Speaker 2>good tackle breakers too, lots of options. I cannot imagine

0:25:39.880 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 2>we have the same issue this year because I think

0:25:41.560 --> 0:25:43.240
<v Speaker 2>we're just too good for it. I just think the

0:25:43.240 --> 0:25:46.359
<v Speaker 2>personnel is too good and the staff is too smart

0:25:46.480 --> 0:25:48.760
<v Speaker 2>to struggle to convert for that for a third straight year,

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:51.480
<v Speaker 2>especially when they're so good at third medium or third

0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:53.680
<v Speaker 2>and long. All right, last break, right there, Let's go

0:25:53.720 --> 0:25:55.320
<v Speaker 2>ahead and come back on the other side. Finished up

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:57.240
<v Speaker 2>with more of your questions on the Draft Time podcast

0:25:57.440 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>your host Travis Wingfield, brought to you by Autoation. All Right,

0:26:02.640 --> 0:26:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I try to get to as many of these as

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I possibly could, and I want to just go ahead

0:26:05.480 --> 0:26:08.200
<v Speaker 2>and rip through them here real quick at Mason Prince TV.

0:26:08.280 --> 0:26:11.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious your thoughts on Ingold's role in twenty twenty

0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:13.359
<v Speaker 2>four in the offense with all the upgrades, do we

0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:15.479
<v Speaker 2>see less of him to be a less productive part

0:26:15.520 --> 0:26:17.480
<v Speaker 2>of the offense. It's a great question, and we can't

0:26:17.480 --> 0:26:18.879
<v Speaker 2>answer that until we get to the games, right, But

0:26:18.880 --> 0:26:21.359
<v Speaker 2>I do feel confident saying that will be adaptable on

0:26:21.400 --> 0:26:23.919
<v Speaker 2>a week to week basis and attack defenses where they

0:26:23.920 --> 0:26:26.680
<v Speaker 2>are vulnerable. I know a lot of teams game plan

0:26:26.760 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 2>around what they do best, but this system has long

0:26:29.080 --> 0:26:31.320
<v Speaker 2>been about going after where the defense is weakest. So

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 2>a team like Buffalo, for instance, who wants to play

0:26:33.840 --> 0:26:35.760
<v Speaker 2>these light boxes, and we saw it in the game

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.000
<v Speaker 2>at Buffalo in twenty twenty two. You can get some

0:26:38.080 --> 0:26:40.760
<v Speaker 2>numbers advantages and get rolling with Alec Ingold as your

0:26:40.840 --> 0:26:43.240
<v Speaker 2>lead blocker in a very good running game. But we've

0:26:43.240 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 2>also seen him contribute in some of our more spread

0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 2>out games, like the rail he caught up the sideline

0:26:48.440 --> 0:26:51.520
<v Speaker 2>against the LA Chargers. He's a captain, he's smart. He

0:26:51.560 --> 0:26:54.520
<v Speaker 2>gives us an element that few teams have, which creates

0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:57.920
<v Speaker 2>a whole other package that defenses have to spend practice

0:26:57.960 --> 0:27:01.120
<v Speaker 2>time on working on that we can practice. I love

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Alec and think he's gonna have a big role here

0:27:03.080 --> 0:27:06.720
<v Speaker 2>for this Dolphins offense at fullback at Rubin Ramirez, Hi, Travis.

0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:08.439
<v Speaker 2>Can you tell us the twenty twenty three rushing and

0:27:08.520 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 2>passing yards per play out of these two personnel groups

0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:14.320
<v Speaker 2>eleven and twenty one personnel? Yes? I can so. Eleven personnel,

0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:17.240
<v Speaker 2>which is one running back, one tight end, three receivers

0:27:17.359 --> 0:27:21.680
<v Speaker 2>think Tyreek Hill and or sorry, Tyreek Waddle and Beckham

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:24.480
<v Speaker 2>with Moster and John who think about that? So rushing

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:26.400
<v Speaker 2>out of that package last year with five point six

0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 2>yards per rush, passing was eight point one yards per play.

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Twenty one personnel, two backs, one tight end two receivers

0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:36.520
<v Speaker 2>think Inglden Moster with Hill and Waddle and Durham Smith

0:27:36.840 --> 0:27:39.200
<v Speaker 2>five yards per carry eight point one yards per past,

0:27:39.280 --> 0:27:43.159
<v Speaker 2>both very impressive. Next question at Keist Scott we have

0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:45.720
<v Speaker 2>some great beat writers, Unfortunately too many are negative of

0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:48.000
<v Speaker 2>the skies falling black Monday type of guys. Is that

0:27:48.080 --> 0:27:50.919
<v Speaker 2>a cultural thing with Northeast coast transplants or is that

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:53.240
<v Speaker 2>what sells and works in the Miamy market. Never seen

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:55.720
<v Speaker 2>anything like it before? Curious your take? I do think that,

0:27:56.640 --> 0:27:58.720
<v Speaker 2>especially with what Twitter's become, and we see some of

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:00.679
<v Speaker 2>our beat res becoming aggregators at this point, which is

0:28:01.640 --> 0:28:04.960
<v Speaker 2>just kind of weird to me. But you know, Steven A.

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Smith sells because he yells and like, what's going to

0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:11.240
<v Speaker 2>be on ESPN For the casual fan that doesn't really

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:12.840
<v Speaker 2>want to listen to a podcast, right, that's what they're

0:28:12.840 --> 0:28:14.760
<v Speaker 2>trying to go after there with the most that's the

0:28:14.760 --> 0:28:16.480
<v Speaker 2>biggest part of the population, right is kind of the

0:28:16.560 --> 0:28:19.040
<v Speaker 2>ding dungk that wants to watch that stuff. But also

0:28:19.200 --> 0:28:22.920
<v Speaker 2>panic because people love to read about misery, impactice. Why

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:25.639
<v Speaker 2>news stations don't want to run you know, heartwarming stories,

0:28:25.640 --> 0:28:28.200
<v Speaker 2>they want to run panic and bad things. But also

0:28:28.440 --> 0:28:30.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it's just the nature of the league nowadays,

0:28:30.480 --> 0:28:32.560
<v Speaker 2>and it's definitely in that case on social media. But

0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:35.120
<v Speaker 2>like I always give Adam Beasley shit for this last year,

0:28:35.359 --> 0:28:39.480
<v Speaker 2>he tweeted about the Dolphins having red zone issues against

0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:41.520
<v Speaker 2>the Falcons and the preseason opener when no one started

0:28:41.560 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 2>the game. Mike White was a quarterback that game, and

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:45.080
<v Speaker 2>he was like, the Dolphins offense needs some work. And

0:28:45.120 --> 0:28:46.760
<v Speaker 2>then it came back practice a few days later it

0:28:46.760 --> 0:28:48.640
<v Speaker 2>wasn't sharp again, and he says, I stand by my story.

0:28:48.640 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 2>It's like and then they would go on to you know,

0:28:50.760 --> 0:28:52.520
<v Speaker 2>game five hundred yards per game for the first six

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 2>games the season. It's yeah, you should probably wait until

0:28:54.280 --> 0:28:57.200
<v Speaker 2>season starts. I just think that every game, every play

0:28:57.560 --> 0:29:00.960
<v Speaker 2>is like all that folks can remember, and that's for

0:29:01.040 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 2>fans and beat writers alike. So I think that the

0:29:03.360 --> 0:29:06.000
<v Speaker 2>when something bad happens, that's that's what you write about,

0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and you harp on it until something could happen. So

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:09.000
<v Speaker 2>I just think it's a nature of the league and

0:29:09.000 --> 0:29:12.040
<v Speaker 2>how it is nowadays. At Noah's a dork. Best horror

0:29:12.040 --> 0:29:14.000
<v Speaker 2>movie you've seen the last six months, You guys are

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:16.360
<v Speaker 2>right up my Alley today. Luckily I log all my

0:29:16.400 --> 0:29:19.080
<v Speaker 2>films I watch on letterbox, so now I have three

0:29:19.160 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 2>for you. I watched a film called Voices with Ryan

0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 2>Reynolds a few months ago. He's like a he hears

0:29:24.080 --> 0:29:26.360
<v Speaker 2>voices in his head and he wants to get into killing,

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:27.640
<v Speaker 2>but he hasn't decided if he wants to yet, and

0:29:27.680 --> 0:29:29.840
<v Speaker 2>he eventually does it. He like talks to his pets

0:29:29.880 --> 0:29:32.840
<v Speaker 2>and like sees things. It's really kind of fun. I thought.

0:29:33.000 --> 0:29:35.120
<v Speaker 2>I saw a one called House of Darkness with Justin

0:29:35.160 --> 0:29:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Long where he plays a He just plays a good

0:29:37.080 --> 0:29:39.280
<v Speaker 2>douchebag that eventually gets killed off in a movie like

0:29:39.320 --> 0:29:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Barbarian is an all time favorite for me, not the

0:29:42.640 --> 0:29:44.520
<v Speaker 2>last six months, but an all time favorite of all time.

0:29:44.720 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Even an awful film like Tusk that I watched. I

0:29:46.840 --> 0:29:49.080
<v Speaker 2>love Justin in that film where it gets turned into

0:29:49.080 --> 0:29:51.480
<v Speaker 2>a freaking walrus, and he's great in that one too.

0:29:51.680 --> 0:29:53.880
<v Speaker 2>He's also great in this one last The Coffee Table.

0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna tell you anything about it. It is

0:29:56.440 --> 0:29:59.160
<v Speaker 2>tough to watch. It's a hard watch, but it's so

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:02.200
<v Speaker 2>unique and just so so good. I will say there's

0:30:02.200 --> 0:30:03.800
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of horror films coming up that I cannot

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:05.880
<v Speaker 2>wait to watch in a Violent Nature looks so good.

0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Long legs the trailer had my skin crawling in that

0:30:08.400 --> 0:30:10.560
<v Speaker 2>one twenty eight years later, and then the m Night

0:30:10.560 --> 0:30:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Shyamalan film Trap. Is it gonna get me again? Is

0:30:12.800 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 2>he gonna have a horrible movie that I hate coming

0:30:14.600 --> 0:30:16.480
<v Speaker 2>out of Probably, but I'm gonna go see it anyways.

0:30:17.360 --> 0:30:19.720
<v Speaker 2>Thank God. The superhero movies, though, seem to be made

0:30:19.760 --> 0:30:22.120
<v Speaker 2>less frequently, so we can get more originality and actually

0:30:22.200 --> 0:30:24.880
<v Speaker 2>good films back in theaters. Thank you for the question, Noah,

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:27.440
<v Speaker 2>At Mike Lane CC, we have much better depth than

0:30:27.480 --> 0:30:30.080
<v Speaker 2>in previous seasons. Having said that, do you feel we

0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:32.520
<v Speaker 2>have any trade chips the teams will be calling about

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:34.560
<v Speaker 2>or released at the end of camp, for example, Jeff

0:30:34.560 --> 0:30:37.720
<v Speaker 2>Wilson's or the defensive tackle, death receiver, et cetera, et cetera. Well,

0:30:37.960 --> 0:30:40.040
<v Speaker 2>that's the thing I think gets lost the most with

0:30:40.160 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 2>draft need perception, Like what was the theme on Twitter?

0:30:43.160 --> 0:30:45.720
<v Speaker 2>They better not draft a cornerback, right, and it even

0:30:45.720 --> 0:30:48.120
<v Speaker 2>became don't draft a receiver in round one at least

0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 2>what I saw. But I always harp on this because

0:30:50.560 --> 0:30:53.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it doesn't land. Your needs are gonna

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:56.200
<v Speaker 2>change drastically every single year now more than ever. It

0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:59.200
<v Speaker 2>was always this way, but now teams have so many

0:30:59.240 --> 0:31:01.480
<v Speaker 2>guys on one year deals or two year deals. Take

0:31:01.520 --> 0:31:03.920
<v Speaker 2>the best players, and that's the best way to ensure

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:06.200
<v Speaker 2>your roster will be the best that it can become

0:31:06.320 --> 0:31:08.480
<v Speaker 2>week one. And what we said is a great point

0:31:08.520 --> 0:31:11.280
<v Speaker 2>to look at come the end of camp, I hope

0:31:11.760 --> 0:31:14.600
<v Speaker 2>we have sixty guys that belong in NFL rosters that

0:31:14.680 --> 0:31:16.959
<v Speaker 2>can give us the ability to acquire more assets. To

0:31:17.000 --> 0:31:18.760
<v Speaker 2>your point, so we know we have a bunch of

0:31:18.760 --> 0:31:20.760
<v Speaker 2>good backs, maybe someone's willing to give you a pick

0:31:20.800 --> 0:31:23.080
<v Speaker 2>for the guy that finishes fifth in that competition, or

0:31:23.120 --> 0:31:25.440
<v Speaker 2>the same at wide receiver or corner, or we've also

0:31:25.480 --> 0:31:28.000
<v Speaker 2>got plenty of edges and off ball linebackers too. It's

0:31:28.000 --> 0:31:30.960
<v Speaker 2>a deep team almost everywhere, and that will always work

0:31:31.000 --> 0:31:34.120
<v Speaker 2>in your favor. I think those are the position groups receiver,

0:31:34.480 --> 0:31:38.400
<v Speaker 2>running back, corner, edge, off ball linebacker where you can say,

0:31:38.440 --> 0:31:39.920
<v Speaker 2>if we can get good value for a guy that

0:31:40.040 --> 0:31:41.800
<v Speaker 2>might not make the team, let's go ahead and pull

0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 2>a trigger there. So absolutely there are those at King

0:31:44.560 --> 0:31:47.479
<v Speaker 2>Underscore eight six. Are the Mariners going to win the division?

0:31:47.520 --> 0:31:48.840
<v Speaker 2>The offense teams to have taken a step in the

0:31:48.880 --> 0:31:50.840
<v Speaker 2>right direction and chaos ball is back. I'm gonna say

0:31:50.880 --> 0:31:53.160
<v Speaker 2>no because the offense is awful. It's so bad. As

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:56.120
<v Speaker 2>I record this. The Mariners just won the first three

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:58.560
<v Speaker 2>games of a four game set against Houston. They're three

0:31:58.680 --> 0:32:00.640
<v Speaker 2>up on the Rangers in the West. But I have

0:32:00.760 --> 0:32:03.240
<v Speaker 2>zero faith because that lineup they tried out every night

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:05.800
<v Speaker 2>is full of holes, like automatic outs all of the

0:32:05.800 --> 0:32:08.120
<v Speaker 2>lineup and slow guys that get doubled off all the time.

0:32:08.360 --> 0:32:11.280
<v Speaker 2>They could have the best starting pitching we've seen this century.

0:32:11.320 --> 0:32:14.560
<v Speaker 2>They probably do, and still I don't think they have

0:32:14.640 --> 0:32:17.000
<v Speaker 2>the offense to make it happen. Now, maybe they get

0:32:17.000 --> 0:32:19.120
<v Speaker 2>aggressive of the deadline, and I think they should because

0:32:19.280 --> 0:32:21.760
<v Speaker 2>if you get to the dance. This rotation just put

0:32:21.800 --> 0:32:24.280
<v Speaker 2>up eighteen consecutive quality starts. If you do that in

0:32:24.320 --> 0:32:26.600
<v Speaker 2>the postseason, you probably win a World Series. So go

0:32:26.680 --> 0:32:29.440
<v Speaker 2>for it, Jerry Jerry Depoto manorch Jiam John manager. But no,

0:32:29.480 --> 0:32:32.720
<v Speaker 2>they stink, Man. Their offense is so bad. At AMC

0:32:33.200 --> 0:32:35.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty two C, how would you rank the running backs

0:32:35.440 --> 0:32:39.560
<v Speaker 2>in pass pro and the receivers as run blockers. I'm

0:32:39.560 --> 0:32:42.640
<v Speaker 2>gonna go I'm gonna go Raheem because he's done it,

0:32:42.640 --> 0:32:44.200
<v Speaker 2>and then Jilen Wright I think his second among the

0:32:44.280 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 2>running backs, and then after that Jeff Wilson, but I

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:50.160
<v Speaker 2>don't think it's good beyond that Chris Brooks. Maybe at receiver,

0:32:50.280 --> 0:32:51.920
<v Speaker 2>I think Craig Craft is the best blocker, and then

0:32:51.920 --> 0:32:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I think Waddle and Tyreek right there too because they're

0:32:53.960 --> 0:32:57.120
<v Speaker 2>very willing to try to do it and be impactful

0:32:57.120 --> 0:32:59.320
<v Speaker 2>that way. And then from there, I don't know, but

0:32:59.320 --> 0:33:02.760
<v Speaker 2>that's kind of that's I guess my thoughts there at

0:33:02.760 --> 0:33:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Marcos underscore Alviira. I know it's not even training camp yet,

0:33:05.840 --> 0:33:07.560
<v Speaker 2>but speaking of rookies, who is impressed you the most

0:33:07.560 --> 0:33:10.160
<v Speaker 2>and who is better than advertised? I just put Patrick Paul.

0:33:10.880 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 2>I think the progress that he has made from his

0:33:12.800 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 2>technique at Houston to where it's been in training camps

0:33:15.160 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 2>or mini camp so far has been it shows. I

0:33:18.040 --> 0:33:20.960
<v Speaker 2>think Leonard Payne and Grayce and Murphy are two udfas

0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 2>that have a great chance to make the roster. I'm

0:33:22.880 --> 0:33:24.880
<v Speaker 2>also intrigued by Jordan Colbert and not a rookie, but

0:33:24.960 --> 0:33:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Eric Azuokama continues to just dazzle me. I think he's God.

0:33:28.080 --> 0:33:32.560
<v Speaker 2>I think he can play football man. Let's see at

0:33:32.600 --> 0:33:35.840
<v Speaker 2>c R Kent Week eighteen at the Jets primetime third

0:33:35.840 --> 0:33:37.960
<v Speaker 2>and goal, the four yard line, down by five. You

0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:40.360
<v Speaker 2>came back from three scores down. There's twelve seconds left.

0:33:40.560 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 2>A win secures the one seed and drops the Jets

0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:46.080
<v Speaker 2>out of the playoffs. What's your formation, your personnel, and

0:33:46.120 --> 0:33:49.880
<v Speaker 2>your play call. I love this question so much. I'm

0:33:49.880 --> 0:33:53.560
<v Speaker 2>throwing the football first off, and I'm trying to find

0:33:53.600 --> 0:33:55.480
<v Speaker 2>a one on one matchup, and you're most likely to

0:33:55.520 --> 0:33:57.440
<v Speaker 2>get zoned down here in this part of the field,

0:33:57.600 --> 0:34:00.680
<v Speaker 2>and I'd like to have something angling back inside. So

0:34:00.760 --> 0:34:04.400
<v Speaker 2>I think I'll go eleven personnel with Tyreek, Wattle and

0:34:04.440 --> 0:34:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Beckham as my receivers. I'm gonna have Reeke as the

0:34:06.880 --> 0:34:09.120
<v Speaker 2>boundary the short side of the field and hope to

0:34:09.160 --> 0:34:11.279
<v Speaker 2>pull double coverage over there. If they don't throw double

0:34:11.320 --> 0:34:12.920
<v Speaker 2>coverget Him'm just gonna throw the ball tygy Kiel one

0:34:12.920 --> 0:34:14.400
<v Speaker 2>on one coverage and try to win that way. But I

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:16.080
<v Speaker 2>assume he's gonna get double coverage to the short side

0:34:16.080 --> 0:34:17.560
<v Speaker 2>of the field and gives me more space to work with.

0:34:17.840 --> 0:34:19.880
<v Speaker 2>To the field side of the field, I'm going to

0:34:19.920 --> 0:34:22.080
<v Speaker 2>have Wattles start in a nasty alignment to the same

0:34:22.120 --> 0:34:25.920
<v Speaker 2>side of the formation as Beckham and John Whu with

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:27.840
<v Speaker 2>the strength of the field, and a nasty alignment just

0:34:27.840 --> 0:34:29.360
<v Speaker 2>means they're in close to the formation. It's like a

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:32.960
<v Speaker 2>tight end basically with John U Smith and then Beckham

0:34:33.000 --> 0:34:34.680
<v Speaker 2>and John who are the strength to the field. And

0:34:34.680 --> 0:34:36.880
<v Speaker 2>then I'm gonna motion waddle from that alignment to the

0:34:36.920 --> 0:34:38.759
<v Speaker 2>wide side of the field. Is the one receiver all

0:34:38.800 --> 0:34:41.600
<v Speaker 2>the way out wide to pull more coverage and create

0:34:41.640 --> 0:34:44.640
<v Speaker 2>more space inside. Then I'm gonna throw it the ball

0:34:44.840 --> 0:34:47.239
<v Speaker 2>to Odell on a China or whip route where he

0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:49.759
<v Speaker 2>fakes out and breaks back in or vice versa, but

0:34:49.800 --> 0:34:52.680
<v Speaker 2>hopefully back inside on the whip where he widens his

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:56.600
<v Speaker 2>man across his face. Throw throw over the ball or

0:34:56.840 --> 0:34:59.919
<v Speaker 2>the ball against what should be one on one zone,

0:35:00.520 --> 0:35:02.719
<v Speaker 2>and trust that TUA puts it in a place where

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Odell can get it and he makes the catch. Does

0:35:04.560 --> 0:35:06.880
<v Speaker 2>that sound good? Trying to create space here for Odell

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Beckham at mister John Lewis mount Rushmore of TV drama

0:35:10.840 --> 0:35:14.480
<v Speaker 2>series I have Dexter breaking bad, better call Saw and Snowfall.

0:35:14.520 --> 0:35:16.920
<v Speaker 2>I actually haven't seen Snowfall or Dexter. I know, I

0:35:16.960 --> 0:35:19.239
<v Speaker 2>know it's bad. It's a great question, though BCS Better

0:35:19.239 --> 0:35:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Call Saul is the all time greatest show. To me,

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:22.520
<v Speaker 2>I will argue that until I'm blue in the face.

0:35:22.680 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 2>I think it's Breaking Bad without some of the plot

0:35:24.280 --> 0:35:27.439
<v Speaker 2>holes and overall a better and experienced, more experienced crew.

0:35:27.520 --> 0:35:29.560
<v Speaker 2>It's the same crew who just got better what they

0:35:29.600 --> 0:35:31.400
<v Speaker 2>do than Breaking Bad. In a second, because it was

0:35:31.400 --> 0:35:34.080
<v Speaker 2>so revolutionary for its time, I'll put Bury next. I

0:35:34.120 --> 0:35:35.680
<v Speaker 2>know it's a comedy, but by the end of it,

0:35:35.680 --> 0:35:37.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't think anybody besides the Breaking Bad universe did

0:35:37.920 --> 0:35:40.720
<v Speaker 2>a better job of creating tension and drama. And last,

0:35:41.040 --> 0:35:43.840
<v Speaker 2>I'll go with True Detective just season one because mcconaughan

0:35:43.880 --> 0:35:45.880
<v Speaker 2>and Woody Helsing was so good in that and it

0:35:45.960 --> 0:35:49.640
<v Speaker 2>was so captivating the entire season. All right, fun episode there.
