I am John Schmilk. 4 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: He is Paul Latino on the phone number for you 5 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 1: is two oh one nine nine four five one three. 6 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: A busy show. We'll hear from se Quon Barkley's head 7 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: coach at Penn State. Later on in the show, Jonah 8 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: Tolls from n d T Scouting, and of course a 9 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: lot of your calls will take you through the two 10 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: rounds of the draft through the giants second third round pick. 11 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 1: They have two of them, and we'll try to get 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: all three picks live on the air as well. Paul, 13 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: how are you doing great? John, It's been a long week. 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: But where are at the finish line here? With the 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: weekend and of course two and three or tonight, rounds four, 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 1: five and six and seven will be tomorrow. We know 17 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: the Giants don't have any six or seventh round picks 18 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: at least at the moment. Certainly trades could occur and 19 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 1: maybe they will get back into those rounds, but as 20 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: of now they'll be done in the fifth round, and uh, 21 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: you know, they still got some more work to do. 22 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: Let's face it, If you hit big on the first 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: round and then don't collect other guys later who are 24 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: going to be valuable to your team, it's not a 25 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: successful draft. So these are very important picks. And I'm 26 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: not sure if you heard. The Giants already added a 27 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: player in the first night of the draft last night 28 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: on Thursday. They took Jon Barkley, the running back out 29 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: of Penn State. The highest of running back has been 30 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: drafted in quite a while since Trench richardson Cleveland in 31 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, which is also the second overall pick 32 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: in the draft. Correct, and Pott Sherman was the coach 33 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: there too, correct And by the way, he had fifty 34 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: receptions in that first year with Cleveland, So that might 35 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: be a preview of what might happen with sake Kwon Barkley, 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: but obviously a big piece of this Giant's puzzle. Another 37 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: weapon on offense, Paul. But as we've talked about, in 38 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: order for running back to be successful, you have to 39 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: have a good offensive line in front of you, and 40 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: that kind of leads to where the Giants are at 41 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: pick thirty four tonight. Only one team will pick before 42 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: the Giants at thirty three. That's the Cleveland Browns. So 43 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: is that what you're talking here? Are you looking at 44 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: an offensive lineman? Well, let's face it, John, We've often 45 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: talked about where does value meet need on the board, 46 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: and then in this case, I think it does. You 47 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: look at the guys that that are still there, guys 48 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: who have fallen out of the first round, who are 49 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: now kind of swimming around in the water, and teams 50 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: are just itching to pick those guys off now at 51 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: the top of the second round, which is why the 52 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns will probably be taken a whole bunch of 53 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: phone calls, because much like when the Giants traded up 54 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: to get Land in Collins at the top of the 55 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: first round a couple of years ago, there's activity there. 56 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: Now you're talking about guys like Daniels the center from Iowa, 57 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: who has an issue that would be one of the 58 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: reasons why he has fallen. You look at Will Hernandez 59 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: from you Chap, my personal favorite, who has no health 60 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: issues but is still on the board. Level of competition 61 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: certainly one of the reasons why he might have dropped 62 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: out of you at University of Texas El Paso and 63 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: then you look at another guy, um like Conna Williams 64 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: out of Texas who has had new issues as well. 65 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: People thought he'd be a first rounder. He could play tackle, 66 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: he could play guard, but the medical file drops him 67 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: down a few spots, and so every team has to decide, John, 68 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: where are they going to rank? You know, the conditions. 69 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: Are they gonna put medical high? Are they gonna put 70 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: um uh interaction high? Are they're gonna put locker room 71 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: demeanor high? Are they gonna put game film high? What 72 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: are they gonna do in terms of weighing the value 73 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: of the player. Will her Nandez is a clean player, 74 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: and he's a good player. I would take him if 75 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: I were the Giants with the second pick of the 76 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: second round. Of course, he's got to be there first 77 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: now exactly, and the Browns pick ahead of the Giants. 78 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: The Browns do not need a guard. They have Zeisler 79 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: and Joe Betonio at guard, who are both pretty dawn 80 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: good players. They make a decent amount of money, so 81 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: you wouldn't think they need to add a guard. However, 82 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter did that there is a lot of action here, 83 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: and Ian Rappaport had it too at the top of 84 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: the second round with teams looking to trade up. If 85 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: remember the Giants did something like that a few years 86 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: ago when they traded up for Landon Collins. Teams have 87 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: twenty four hours here to look at the board and 88 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: start salivating over certain players, and then they do and 89 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: they think about moving up and using some future assets 90 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: later in the draft or maybe in future draft season 91 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: even to move up and get those players. So there's 92 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: always a chance that the Browns, who from what we understand, 93 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: tried to move down from number four in the first 94 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: round to acquire more picks, maybe they'll try to do 95 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: the same thing at thirty three overall tonight if another 96 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: team values someone like well Hernandez. However, I want to 97 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: make sure we touch on our bases here. It doesn't 98 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: have to be an offensive lineman, folks, So it does not. 99 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: Another position that teams tend to value an awful lot, 100 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: especially when it's a thin position depth wise in the 101 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: draft class is pass rusher. And there's really only one 102 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: premium pass rusher left on the board, and that's Harold Landry, 103 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: the defensive end that of Boston College coming into the 104 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: year before they played the seventeen college season people thought 105 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: he might have be a top five pick. He had 106 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: double digit sacks last year, seven force fumble, sixteen and 107 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: a half sacks, twenty two tackles for loss. He was 108 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: a dominant player, and ankle injury in his last year 109 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: plus in college really limited his production. He looked like 110 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: a different player on tape. Heed to me might be 111 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: simply based on position, value and skill, the highest graded 112 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: player left on a lot of these boards around the NFL, 113 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't be surprised the teams are talking to 114 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: the Browns that might want to trade up for Howld 115 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: Landry as well. I know the Giants want him. Who knows. 116 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt that there are teams 117 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: looking at him right now because a lot of folks 118 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: thought skilled position wise, or should I say chalent wise, Uh, 119 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: he would have been a top fifteen pick if he 120 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: was healthy. He is an incredibly dangerous edge rusher now 121 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: because of the ankle injury. Also because he did not 122 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: necessarily do a lot of coverage stuff, He's gonna wind 123 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: up being an outside linebacker in the NFL. So that's 124 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: a transition that folks are gonn want to talk about 125 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: when they decide where he belongs in the draft. Remb 126 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: I want to put a little notation on that. Maybe 127 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: in the base defense, an outside linebacker in passing situation, 128 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: his hands going and think he's going after the car 129 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: and he's playing defensive end, which is why I I 130 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: think it'll be a stand up defensive ban. I don't 131 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: think he's gonna go down. Let me rephrase it. He's 132 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: an edge rusher. You want to call him the defensive end, 133 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: that's fine, Let's call him an edge rusher. Anyway, here's 134 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: the point. Uh, there's no doubt that he is a 135 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: premier challenge who has slipped into this round. And quite honestly, John, 136 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: I think he's the only one of the pass rushers 137 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: who you could make that case for because the other 138 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: position where there is terrific value is at cornerback. Yes, 139 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: and that's that's the other three guys that I want 140 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: to bring up. Three very good players sitting on the board. 141 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: At the cornerback position. You have Isaiah Oliver, a long 142 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: cover corner from Colorado who is primarily a perimeter cornerback. 143 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: He's not a slot guy. Good in press man to 144 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: the man, long guy. He would fit James Betcher's system. 145 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: Another guy that fits a similar profile is Carlton Davis 146 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: out of Auburn. Very physical guy, likes to play, bump 147 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 1: and run on the zone. Then you have Joshua Jackson, 148 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: who another outside perimeter corner. He had eight interceptions last 149 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: year to lead the nation, a converted wide receiver, just 150 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: a one year starter out of Iowa. The third corner 151 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: that I think teams might be thinking about at the 152 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: top of this second round. Yeah. The only danger with 153 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: Jackson his dad. He played on his zone coverage in 154 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: college and was only a one year starter. And what 155 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: we have found out is as teams look for guys 156 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: who they can plug and play into their lineup immediately 157 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: or if not immediately, certainly as quickly as possible, is 158 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: that the most starting games they have at the n 159 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: C double A level, especially if it's with a power team, 160 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: the more pro ready they're going to be. Because we 161 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: both know John, when these rookies get here into the NFL, 162 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: because of the c B A, they don't get to 163 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: a lot of hands on stuff and and it's hard 164 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: to develop these guys quickly enough so that maybe in 165 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: Week one they could be a big party line up. Yeah, 166 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: I want to adjust a coul a couple of other 167 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: options that fans have brought up in terms of giant 168 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: needs linebacker. Not a ton of really off ball traditional 169 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: linebackers that are probably worth They picked this high and 170 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: round two, except for maybe one, Lorenzo Carter, who had 171 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: like the best athletics scores at the combine. We talked 172 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: about the RS scores a lot. He almost broke the 173 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: device that calculates the RS scores. But people aren't quite 174 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: sure what he is. Is he off the ball linebacker? 175 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: Do you think he's a pass rusher? His production at 176 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: Georgia wasn't great, but he has all the traits of 177 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: a dominant player, So this might be an area where 178 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: team might roll the dice in a guy like Lorenzo Carter. 179 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: John I projected him as an outside linebacker in a 180 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: three four, and quite frankly, there are those who think 181 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: he could be a weak side guy because he's got 182 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: the tools to rush the passer. But as you said, 183 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: the production and the stats weren't there at college. At 184 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: the Georgia four or five forty yard dash, he has 185 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: the speed to play will Oh, there's no doubt. Yeah, 186 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: there's no doubt. But he's also got the frame in 187 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,599 Speaker 1: the bulk the list of him at X five to fifty. 188 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: He's got the ability to play strong side, which is 189 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: really cool if you're gonna have a versatile scheme like 190 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: what James Betcher is going to run with the Giants. 191 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: Now the question becomes is it too high at thirty four? 192 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: Does the value meet need with him? Most people think 193 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: he might be a little bit later in the second 194 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: round as opposed to the tippy top. You know, I 195 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: didn't see anybody say he should be a first round pick, 196 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: so that tends to make you believe he might drop further. 197 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, if he's there at the top 198 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: of the third round, it seems to me he'd be 199 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: a steel. Yes. One other position I want to touch on, 200 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 1: only because I've gotten questions about it. I know a 201 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: lot of Giant fans wanted the Giants to take a 202 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: quarterback in the first round. That obviously didn't happen. They 203 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: took se Kwan Barkley. But now Giant fans are asking, well, 204 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: do we wanna you know, hedge our bets as a 205 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: for a backup to Eli Manning to compete with Davis 206 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: Webb there's only two quarterbacks on the roster presently. Uh. 207 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: To me, Paul, the only guy at the top of 208 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: the second round I would consider is probably Mason Rudolph 209 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: out of out of Oklahoma, UM Oklahoma state part of me, 210 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: but I think you can get a guy like Mike 211 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: White later on Kyle Loletta. They might be later on 212 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: picks in the second round, But I think the bottom 213 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: line to me here and I'm simply going off the 214 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: way gave Dave Gentleman spoken as press conference last night, 215 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: and we had this conversation on the afternoon version of 216 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: a Big Blue Kick Off Live. He doesn't sound like 217 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: a guy that's overly concerned with getting another young quarterback 218 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: to play behind Eli Manning. I think he feels pretty good. 219 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: Not that he's sure Davis Webb is the answer no 220 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: matter what, but I think he's pretty happy based on 221 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 1: where it lies in his career, how David's Webb looks 222 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: in terms of a developmental quarterback, that there's not a 223 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 1: need to add another youngster into that mix, at least 224 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: not with a premium drafting. Maybe an undrafted free agent 225 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: or something like that. Yeah, I totally concur John I 226 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: would not be surprised if the Giants added a u 227 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: f A, or, for that matter, if they brought in 228 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: a veteran free agent during the course of the summer, 229 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 1: because you're gonna want to have three arms to throw 230 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: when training camp starts at the end of July. Uh again, 231 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: who could that guy be? I don't know, but I 232 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to use a draft pick to 233 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,199 Speaker 1: get him. I want to remind everybody the draft begins 234 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: at seven o'clock. That's about fifteen minutes away. The Browns 235 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: go on the clock first, then the Giants will select. 236 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: If we had two guests, we think the Giants pick 237 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: will be announced sometime around seven ten, seven fifteen in 238 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: that area. We'll have that pick for you live as 239 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: soon as it is announced, and then we'll try to 240 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: have that pick live as soon as we can, trying 241 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: to arrange that to get him straight from wherever he 242 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: is drafted. You don't know where he is, so there 243 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: you go, and there's always the chance they trade down. 244 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it will happen, and of course, our 245 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: excellent pr staff will do a great job arrange an 246 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: interview force.

Round three 249 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: will be joined by Jonah Tolls from n d T Scouting. 250 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: He does a great job. And also at some point 251 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,599 Speaker 1: I had a chance to talk to James Franklin, the 252 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: Penn State head coach who at se Kwon Barkley there 253 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 1: earlier today. We will replay that interview at some point 254 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: between the Giants second and third round picks as well. 255 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: So a lot coming your way on Big Boo Kickoff 256 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: Live on Giants dot com.

You sting, 269 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: What did you do? Did you set off fireworks? Did 270 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 1: you set off fireworks? You said you scared the dog? 271 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: What did you do? Oh? I was I screamed so 272 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: loud the window was open, and all of sudden I 273 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: heard the door barkin at me. Okay, Uh, anyway, listen. UM, 274 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: A couple of things that I haven't heard people talk 275 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: about with the pick for Barkley and Uh. The one 276 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: is we have Perkins is injured, the guy the guy 277 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: toward his peck, so uh, there's even one less running backs. 278 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: We had no idea when he's gonna return. Um. So, 279 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean that's that's one factor. Uh. The other thing 280 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: is also um, I just I got it. It was 281 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: just a gut feeling. But you know, once uh O'Dell 282 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: sees uh Barkley getting the same accolades from the crowd 283 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: and everything else that he gets, and then after a 284 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: while we know will win Barkley the way I believe 285 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: Barkley is gonna do this when he of course a touchdown, 286 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna remind me of Barry Sanders. So rip off 287 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: one for sixty five yards. He d just nonchalantly hands 288 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: the ball back to the referee, and then he trots 289 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: off to the to the bench, slaps a few fives, 290 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 1: and sits down. And I got the feeling that when 291 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: that happens and the crowd's going nuts for what he accomplished, 292 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: then at some point, uh, Beckham's gotta go geez, they're 293 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 1: just as happy about what he did versus me. Maybe 294 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: I shouldn't be doing some of that stupid stuff I 295 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: do after a touchdown and giving and crossing the team 296 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: fifteen yards on the next kick off. I think you're 297 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: making a lot of assumptions. How about this, How about 298 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: you just be happy when Barkley scores a touchdown and 299 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: not worry about what he does with the ball afterwards. Yeah, 300 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: I mean I don't I don't want to overplay that, 301 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: but I will see this to be serious when everybody 302 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: else knows, that's something that kind of peas off Giants 303 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: fans for a second. All right, we do get a 304 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: little picked off about that one part. I love everything else? 305 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: Uh oh does I'm not criticizing anything else does. He 306 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: doesn't really get in trouble. He doesn't do anything stupid 307 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,119 Speaker 1: really that bad. So I mean you know, I'm not criticizing, 308 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: and it's just that one little issue. Um. The other 309 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: thing also is now I'm hoping that you know, we 310 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: don't lose this shot at Hernande is um, you know, 311 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: because boy, that's the obvious, obvious next pick, one would think. 312 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: So I appreciate the phone call, Thank you, John. I 313 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: think one thing that we ought to mention to the 314 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: caller while he listens off the air is that we 315 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: heard from se Kwon Barkley yesterday and he has worked 316 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: out quite often with Olddell Beckham Jr. In fact, we 317 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: have the video on giants dot Com that our great 318 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: crew Natalie and Mike did a good job in Dallas 319 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: getting it that shortly after the pick, he was FaceTime 320 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: without all Beckham Junior on his phone. So those guys 321 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: are close, they're tight, so they already have a very 322 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: good relationship. Yeah. So uh, you know, and I know 323 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 1: O'Dell also tweeted out a couple of things about how 324 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: excited he was. In fact, I think he also said 325 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: that Barkley's twenty six will wind up being the most 326 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: popular selling jersey. I don't know that's gonna be the case, 327 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: but I got a feeling he's gonna be up there. Oh, 328 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: he'll be up there, right. I'm not sure if that 329 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: number has been officially assigned yet. By the way, that's true. 330 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: I will point out that it is available. It is available. 331 00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: If that's the number he wants, I'm pretty sure that's 332 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: the numb he's gonna get. But we'll see how that goes. 333 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: Two one nine four or five one three. Let's go 334 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: back to the phone. And they hid a Reese in Queens. Reese, 335 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: you're on Big Book, Kick Golf Life with John and Paul. 336 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: How are you, Hey, how's it going, guys? What's upright? 337 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: Se I hate to say I told you so, but 338 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: well I told you sold on Hold on race. You're 339 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: acting like a surprise. We've both said we thought that 340 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: John's were taken promptly for the last month, right, I know, 341 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: I know, but I still remember our laugh little conversation though, 342 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: right like that, right we have we have. We give 343 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: a lot of conversations rece I know, but yeah, But 344 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: basically what I was saying is because everybody was saying, oh, 345 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: we need to take a quarterback this, you take a 346 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: quarterback that, and I ovasually went on his whole rent 347 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: saying that everybody was just just stupid because we have 348 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: David Webb and nobody. Everybody so conveniently seems to forget that. 349 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: I hate to tell your reach, but you don't know 350 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: me very well because I've been no quarterback since last act. 351 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: And Reese, I hate to tell you, Reese, Reese, Reese, 352 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: here's the fact of the matter. But Reese, hold on. 353 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: The Giants didn't pick say Kwon Barkley because Davis Webb 354 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: is on the roster. If Davis Webb wasn't here, they 355 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: would have made the same exact pick. Okay, you don't 356 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: never give me. Let me finish my point. I know 357 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: that I know that Weigley because he's the best, the 358 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: best player period. That's a good point. There you go. 359 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: But I know I was saying I just got me Matt. 360 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: Every time I would hear analyst on TV and you 361 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: so called fans talking about we have to take a quarterback, 362 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: I just never got that because we got a young 363 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,719 Speaker 1: quarterback right on the roster. This is what you need 364 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,719 Speaker 1: to do. Don't look at all those other shows. Just 365 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: look at Big Blue Kick Off Live and you'll get 366 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: all the information. But Reese, by the way, don't say 367 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: so called fans. You could be a real Giant fan 368 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: and have that opinion. The people don't take an account 369 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: what we already had. They wanted to spend the number 370 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: two picks on a quarter of that quarterback, Reese. I 371 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: hate to tell you, Ray Reese, I'm gonna give you 372 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: a fact. If the Giants dont one of these quarterbacks, 373 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 1: we're worth the number two pick. Even if David Webb 374 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: is here, they would have picked the quarterback. That's the 375 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: point I'm trying to make to you. Well, well, well 376 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying, but that would have been in 377 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: my I got a good idea, Oh Race, I got 378 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: a good idea. Let's not talk about hypotheticals. If you 379 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: have something really you'd like to to point out, we'd 380 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: be glad to address her with you. I do, but 381 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: Daki cutt me off. Go right ahead. I'm saying with pick, 382 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: I think we, without a doubt, we have to take 383 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: Hernandez like I've been watching his tape all day and 384 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: that that you know, he's a beast. He's a beast, 385 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: and you if you imagine him besides shoulder take Barkley 386 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: is gonna be an animal, right, them behind them, like 387 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: he's gonna be probably the best roscher in the league. 388 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: We have to take Hernandez and if Aaron's but are 389 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: about it, like we have to take him. I just 390 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: hope the Browns don't pick him before us. The Browns 391 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: aren't gonna pick them. They have guards. You're worried if 392 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: someone trades up with the Browns to take Hernandez, that 393 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: would be the worry that that that we need Hernandez 394 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: and and as far as take on Barkley goes, I 395 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: think that with a irifict pick we didn't like, we 396 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: basically did like the best thing we could have possibly do. 397 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: Pi Kuan have you like have um you take pressure 398 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: off of Eli, take pressure off of our receivers, take 399 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: pressure off for Evan Ingram, and keep our defense off 400 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: of the field. That's what we did, and that was 401 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: the best and smartest move we couldn't have done. So 402 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: I don't I'm not like, I don't know when people 403 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: talking about, oh, they want a quarterback, they wanted Trump, like, no, 404 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: take Kwan. That was the best option that we did. 405 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 1: And I'm totally I'm totally happy, good, great, Thank you Reese, 406 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: appreciate the call. Buddy, good stuff two four, five, one three. 407 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to I was simply gonna say, Reese, I'm 408 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: glad you're happy, and you should stop worrying about other people, 409 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: because I just want to be happy. And it's good enough, 410 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: good enough litmus test for anybody. Correct. There isn't a 411 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 1: need to, you know, take a example from the last 412 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: quarter talked about after the touchdown gets scored, just hand 413 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: the touchdown, Just hand the ball over. Just enjoy the touchdown. 414 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: Saf Arkley was a touchdown. Enjoy the pick exactly. Let's 415 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: go to Charlie and Portland, Maine. What's up, Chuckles? How 416 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: are you hey, Paul, Hey John? How are you going? 417 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: What a night? Huh? It's exciting. I was happy. I 418 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: was definitely happy with a pick. I didn't want a quarterback. 419 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: Is you probably all remember so party is the best, 420 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: the best, the best, and all I all I want 421 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: for tonight. I just want to hear whoever is coming out. 422 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if Gordell is still doing it or 423 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: whoever comes out and says the New York Giants have 424 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: traded Eric Flowers for an air dine bike for their sidelines, 425 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: and that would be fine with me. I don't care 426 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: if they get a pick. I just want him traded 427 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: off the two. Well, Charlie, here's the trick though. If 428 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: they don't get a picked back, Roger Goodell is not 429 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,719 Speaker 1: going to announce the trade on the podium, so you 430 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 1: can't exactly have it that way, you know what I mean? 431 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,959 Speaker 1: It could be a pick in two thousand five conditional 432 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 1: seventh rounder. That will be fine with me, you know 433 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: that will be that would make my day, make my night, 434 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: and better, isn't it better if you discussed the players 435 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: you'd like to get on the team as opposed to 436 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: guys you'd want to get rid of what you make 437 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: your night. Come to that. I think this thirty four pick, 438 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: I mean I would really I think we need a tackle, 439 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 1: not the guard. But it depends on if gentlemen and 440 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: company think we can get a tackle later and we 441 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: can get the guard now, or we there's not a 442 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: lot of tackles later, so we should take the tackle 443 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: now and get the guard later. Now. I would probably 444 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: go for the tackle. I think the Browns though, might 445 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: take Connor Williams, which is the guy I'm thinking about, 446 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: but they also might go for Landry since they passed 447 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: on Chub, which I can't understand how the hell they 448 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,239 Speaker 1: ever did that passing on Chubb, So they need they 449 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: still need a pass rusher to go along with Garrett, 450 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: so I think Landry might be in play there or 451 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: are left tackle because they need a left tackle. So 452 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that they don't take corners and that we 453 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: can weetn Connor Williams and we can take him, because 454 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: I think we really need to tackle first, because I 455 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 1: think they're better guards that we can get in the 456 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: third round. Even though I love Hernandez and I think 457 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 1: he would be great, I just really feel we need 458 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: a right tackle. So I think Charlie the the medical 459 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: file does not bother you at all with him. He 460 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: said he had three knee injuries within the last year 461 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: and a half. That doesn't bother you. Yeah it does, 462 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: it does a little bit. I mean. And by the way, 463 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: go ahead by actually let me hold on here. By 464 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: the way, many scouts think Connor Williams is going to 465 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: be a better guard than he is a tackle, because 466 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 1: he's actually a shade under three hundred pounds. He is 467 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: a finesse technique tackle, and quite honestly, there are those 468 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 1: who think he's gonna have to bulk up and add 469 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: power and strength and some girth because he's not necessarily 470 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: a pro ready tackle. These are things you got to 471 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: be able to chew on before you make that pick. Okay, Paul, 472 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: who do you think is the best tackle? And if 473 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: we could pick at thirty four, who do you think 474 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: is the best tackle left? I think Connor Williams. I 475 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: think Williams because if his file was not damaged, he 476 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: would be the guy. You could probably make a case 477 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,199 Speaker 1: for Crosby as the next best tackle on the board. 478 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: But I don't necessarily think he's worth pick number thirty four. 479 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: But he's got a clean file. Charlie, that doesn't mean something. 480 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: I actually think, Charlie, you have a shot to get 481 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: and one of the tackles I like in this draft. 482 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: And I've said it before, I'm higher on Jamaco Jones 483 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,719 Speaker 1: from Ohio State more than some other people are. I 484 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 1: think he could step in and be a day one 485 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: right tackle starter for you. You know, he's not gonna 486 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: be an all pro, but I think he'll step into 487 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: a solid job. He's from a big program, he goes 488 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: against big competition, and he's a big man and he's 489 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: very good in past protection. I think if you and 490 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 1: there's a chance he's gonna be there at the top 491 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 1: round three. I can't guarantee it to you, but I 492 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: think there's a chance that I think would be a 493 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: good third round tackle if you go guard at the 494 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: top around and you know, if if you, if you 495 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: want to be a little bit more gambling, because his 496 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: tape was a little bit inconsistent Martine's Rankin is also 497 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: another guy who you could take who is a tackle, 498 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: and you could certainly make an argument that you in 499 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: round two or round three, he'd be a guy in 500 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: that vicinity. All right, that makes sense, you know, as 501 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: long as I think we should go definitely in the 502 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: next two picks though guard, tackle or tackle guard, I 503 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: don't care which way it is, whoever they think is 504 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: the best player to take at that time. And then 505 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: after that I think we should go linebacker or the 506 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 1: rusher or cornerback, and and that's how we should finish 507 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: it out. But uh, you know, I'm you know, the 508 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: Browns need to tackle, so maybe we'll trade Towers to 509 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: the brown You know what, I don't necessarily disagree with 510 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: your your assessment of positions of need. I don't think 511 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: there's much doubt that the Giants could use an offensive lineman, 512 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: they could use a cornerback, they could use a linebacker, 513 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 1: and they could use a defensive end or or a 514 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: hatch rusher of some type. I don't think anybody would 515 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: disagree with those four positions. Now, the Giants have three 516 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 1: picks tonight, and then of course tomorrow they've got a 517 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: fourth and a fifth. So I don't necessarily know that 518 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: it's got to be done in a certain order, except 519 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: the value board, to me, is gonna dictate that more 520 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: than the position. And and I'm not gonna sit here 521 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: and say it's got to be the tackle now, or 522 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: the linebacker now, or the cornerback now. I'm gonna say, 523 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: where does the value board meet the need? And that's 524 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna let it dictate. And I think it's 525 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: old line in cornerback at the top a round two 526 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: and yeah, And I think for me, if you're just 527 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: gonna go old line, Hernandez is the best value at 528 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: this spot. And I'll say this too, if if depending 529 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: on the health, I don't know what the medicals say. 530 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: If Landry is okay for you medically, he's good value 531 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: here too. Oh, there's no doubt. But again the medical 532 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 1: is an issue that has scared a lot of teams 533 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: away because otherwise he wouldn't have dropped around too. How 534 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: about Hernandez at thirty four and then the top of 535 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: the third round, we are are the second pick in 536 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: the third round, we take a Lando Brown. I think 537 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: of him, you know what. I worry about his athletic testing. 538 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: But if you can get him in the third round, 539 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: I like Jamarco Jones better than him, to be honest 540 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: with you. But if he's the best tackle left, and 541 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: I have to know who else is on the board, 542 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 1: obviously i'd like Crosby if he drops that fall, I agree, 543 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: I like him better than I like Orlando Brown as well. 544 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: But if Brown's sitting there, do I think he's a 545 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 1: bad value pick in the third round. I don't think 546 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: it's a bad value. I don't know if it's great though, either. 547 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: Good news, Charlie. At least there are people in the 548 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: on the offensive line who are in the pool and 549 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: are gonna be looked at over the course of the 550 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: next several picks. I know that's what we need. And 551 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: now we got Barkley and we have our quarterback for 552 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: the next two years at least. And I'm excited and uh, 553 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: we just need, uh you know, something on defense a 554 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: little bit. Another cornerback would be helpful. And um, I 555 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: can't wait. We'll talk to you all later. Great, Thank you, Charlie, 556 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: appreciate it. To five one, three, or about a minute 557 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: away from the draft starting, we'll track over the Browns pick, 558 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 1: or if there's a trade, we'll let you know. Then 559 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: we'll get the Giants on the clock and we'll see 560 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: what they're going to do with their draft pick. The 561 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: draft of course taking place down in Dallas or Fort Worth. 562 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: One more call Bradley, New Jersey, notal. I think it's 563 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: been holding since the start of the show, and make 564 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: sure I get him in before we start getting into 565 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: the pick. Bradley, what's going on? How are you? Hey? John? 566 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: Hey Paul, it's thanks so much thing the call, Yeah, 567 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 1: just to pick up with the other call is I 568 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: definitely think Hernandez is the guy that take I don't 569 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: think if you were was an offensive tackle, the Browns 570 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: were definitely take him because Joe Tom is obviously you 571 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,400 Speaker 1: know you were tired after the season was over. So 572 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: with that being said, I think regarding if for a 573 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: team trays up to get to thirty three to the 574 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: brown spot. I definitely think he's a US pick for 575 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: the Giants. And four now, Sean Coleman, their third round 576 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: pick from two thousand sixteen, is there starting left tackle 577 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: as we speak here in the off season, and over 578 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: at right tackle. They got Chris Hubbard, who they signed 579 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: as a free agent from the Pittsburgh Steelers, So both 580 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: of those guys are on the young side of the ledger. 581 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily know. You know, they want Hubbard because 582 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: they signed him to some decent money, so he's gonna 583 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: be starting, there's no doubt about that. I don't know 584 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 1: how they feel about Coleman, I really don't. I don't 585 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: know how they feel about his future. I don't know 586 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: how they feel about him right now, so that may 587 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: come into play as to whether or not they're desperate 588 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: to draft a left tackle now. The other thing I 589 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: have to tell you is that they also could move 590 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: Joel Patonio, who is a very versatile player who many 591 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: people said that when he came out of school he 592 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: might be able to play tackle, guard, or center. Maybe 593 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: they say Hernandez is so good they take Hernandez and 594 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: they move Pretonio out to tackle. I mean, you gotta 595 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: think about these things. Sure, and and but Tonio Bally 596 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: was one of the guys that they thought could swing 597 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: between guard and tackle when he got drafted. I don't 598 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: know what they think from now though. That's the point. 599 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: So I don't know that. I don't know that it's 600 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: a safe bet that her end is would be there 601 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: for the Giants. I just don't know that. I don't know. Yeah, yeah, 602 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: we don't know yet. But as far as there's two 603 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: third round picks, and I I think, uh, they're gonna 604 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: go defense just to buff up, because now they're gonna 605 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: being a three four into of a traditional four three 606 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,479 Speaker 1: that they've been the last like you know, uh decade, seems. 607 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: I think they'll take I want to say, a linebacker 608 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: or d ND and maybe in a corner. But that's 609 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: as far as I think they'll do in the third 610 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: round with the sixty six and sixty nine pick in 611 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,239 Speaker 1: the draft. Hey, look, and I always say this, when 612 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: you get down to the third round, I get picking 613 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: for need, but at that point there's a finite number 614 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: of players left on the board that you think can 615 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: be a starter. I'm not picking a guy that I'm 616 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: not sure it can be a starter at a position 617 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: of need. If I can get a player, then I'm 618 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: pretty darn sure can be a starter, even if it's 619 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: not a need spot. So at that point you really 620 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: have to you really have to let your board dictate 621 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: what you do. Yeah, at the very minimum, that guy 622 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: has to be a heavy rotational player. You've got to 623 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: get a lot of snaps out of that guy in 624 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: the third round, actual top of the third round in 625 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: this case, two third round picks, both at the top 626 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: of the third Yeah. And you know, as far as 627 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: just about yesterday when the Giants at Barkley, I was 628 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: saying with my dad, and you know the last time 629 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: you remember, and you know, Giants big number two and 630 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: they draft they got, but they have a belt taste. 631 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: So me, this is my first son seeing the Giants 632 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: strap number two. I hope this guy, you know, he 633 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: doesn't something special for the Giants the next several years 634 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: to come. So welcome to the Giants, and I hope 635 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: they do work. I appreciate thanks for the call, Bradley. 636 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 1: All Right, we got one more call on the line.

We Uh, 658 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: we haven't had anybody blocking UI for like the longest time, 659 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: so it's a good position. And uh, what do you 660 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: guys think about her name? Does like I think he 661 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,719 Speaker 1: should be part of the Giants too, Like he seems 662 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: he seems like he'll be pretty Yeah, hey, look, Devin 663 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: and Devin, thanks to the call. We appreciate it. And 664 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people don't go deep in 665 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: the draft with stuff like this, So I think a 666 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: lot of people say frankly or learning about what Hernandez 667 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: for the first time, I think that's true. But I 668 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: can tell you for the last two months, for those 669 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: of you that are loyal listeners and watchers of the 670 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: program here, um, I wouldn't say it's been a bull's 671 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: I because quite frankly, we weren't sure he was gonna 672 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: make it out of the first round. But since I 673 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: was in Mobile for the Senior Bowl and I texted Paul, 674 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: I found the guy that you're gonna fall in love 675 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: within the next two months. He was right. We've had 676 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: her Nandez circled in red marker on our lists, in 677 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: our minds, and we've thought that he could be a 678 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: great option for the Giants. You know, he's a big guy. 679 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: He's got the neck role, he's built like a tank. 680 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: You know, we'll bring outitude. He's just when you picture 681 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: the mental image of what you think Dave Gentleman thinks 682 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: that hog Molly is supposed to be, it's Will Hernandez. 683 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: And when I watched him in mobile the Senior Bowl, 684 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: he was man handling people, not just beating them in 685 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: drills tossing them around. He was I'm not gonna say 686 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: the man amongst boys, because Nathan Shepherd at a Fort 687 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: Hayes actually beat him a couple of times during the week, 688 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: but he was just so physical and imposing, and you 689 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: stand near him and you're like, that's an NFL offensive one. 690 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: You know, John will testify to this. When we left 691 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: the combine in Indianapolis, I was kind of down, and 692 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: I remember kind of thinking of myself, I guess that's 693 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: not gonna happen. And and I remember you saying, Paul Dots, 694 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: what's up. Like everybody's telling us here what the combine. 695 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: Will Hernandez is sneaking into the bottom of the first round. 696 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: They're not going to get him at thirty four. I 697 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: was really bummed. And now we and Behold, we're at 698 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: thirty three and Hernandez is still on the board. Hey, Paul, Look, 699 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: we had our list of and by the way, that's 700 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: because he tested well at the Combine. He tested very 701 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: very well at the Combine, which had him shooting up 702 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: the charts into the mid twenties. See. And I think 703 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: the number of offensive lineman that win the first round 704 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: was about where we thought it was gonna be. You 705 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: and Nelson McGlinchey, Colton Miller, rag Now, Billy Price, Isaiah Win. 706 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: So there were six offensive linemen that win the first round. 707 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 1: I think that's where we thought it was gonna be. 708 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,879 Speaker 1: But here's the two we weren't sure, but we thought 709 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: maybe Colton Miller might not be a first round pick. 710 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: Recently we kind of thought he would be. But I 711 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: think we were both taken a little bit by surprise 712 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 1: that both Billy Price and Frank ragg Now were taken 713 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: before Will Hernandez and James Daniels. I think we believed 714 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: those two rag Now on Price would be in the 715 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: second round and her Nandez and Daniels would be in 716 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,959 Speaker 1: the first round. That's not how it went down, which 717 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: is why I think her Nandez is sitting there at 718 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: thirty four. The offensive lineman went like we thought there 719 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: was a run between twenty and thirty, just like we 720 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: predicted different guys than we thought went off the board. Though. Yeah, 721 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: I think Jeams decided that the two centers, because center 722 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 1: is so important and making the line calls and helping 723 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 1: out with your past protection, they decided that that became 724 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: a much more important quantity or or or or piece 725 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: of the puzzle than maybe others of us did. I 726 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: think the other thing we should tell you is that 727 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: the Browns around the clock with less than six minutes 728 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: to go to make the first pick number thirty three 729 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: overall before the Giants get ready to go. And I 730 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: think the other thing too is that because Price had 731 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: heard his pick lifting weights at the combine a partially surgery, 732 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: a lot of folks thought we heard from from one 733 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: of the experts the other day they said, not June, 734 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: he's probably not gonna be ready to maybe even August. 735 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 1: But his doctor put out a note and to all 736 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: the NFL teams. I think it was either early in 737 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: the week or last week that he will be ready 738 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: full goal for training camp helped him. That turned him 739 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,280 Speaker 1: into a basketball was he bouncing down into the second 740 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: round or was he gonna bounce back up again? And 741 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: apparently he bounced back up again because he was gone 742 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 1: last night. All right, five minutes to go before the 743 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: Browns make their selection than the Giants are on the 744 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 1: clock at thirty four. Overall, we just talked a lot 745 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 1: about well, Hernandez, let's briefly go through the other guys 746 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: we think could be in the mix for the Giants. 747 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: I know we've talked about him, but people might be 748 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: joining the show a little bit late, so we talked 749 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: about Hernandez. Another offensive lineman James Daniels, the center guard 750 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: out of Iowa. Of course, he played for Kirk for 751 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: Ins and Iowa a pro system. He's a guy that 752 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: knows how to play the sport. They coach up their 753 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: offensive lineman there extremely well. But as we mentioned Paul, 754 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 1: he did have knee surgery in twenty sixteen, and based 755 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 1: on some reports out there today, that seems to have 756 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: raised a bit of a red flag with some teams 757 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: and might be one of the reasons he's dropping. But 758 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: he's a really smart player, he's athletic, he'd be great 759 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: in his own blocking scheme. The question is the medical 760 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: which we as we've said many times on the show, 761 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 1: we talked about the player on tape, what he does 762 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 1: as a player, we just don't have that medical information 763 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 1: and we don't like to speculate on it. No, and 764 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: quite frankly, I asked a retired scout who is now 765 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 1: working for sports radio in Chicago, Uh of that very question, John, 766 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: how are teams now waiting the medical file on these players? 767 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: Always have knocked them down when they have found a 768 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: yellow flag or a red flag, But it just seems 769 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 1: to me that more and more guys are getting knocked 770 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: down further. And maybe that's because, quite honestly, you can't 771 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 1: take as many risks these days because people don't have patience. 772 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: They want instant gratification with guys. And when guys are 773 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: banged up and nicked up, you know what, they missed 774 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: time at training camp, They missed time at practice, and 775 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the coach says, well, you know what, 776 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: he hasn't gotten enough reps in he's not ready to 777 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: play in the game, So now he doesn't get a 778 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: jersey on Sunday, and all of a sudden, before you 779 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: know it, he's inactive for the first way six weeks 780 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: of the season. And it's not a wasted pick, but 781 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: it's a delayed production on a pick, and that gets 782 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 1: people and organizations very nervous. Three and a half minutes 783 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: to go, the Browns are on the clock. Let's go 784 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: to the third offensive lineman we think could be in 785 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: the mix. And again, this is a guy that suffered 786 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:56,280 Speaker 1: in knee injury in the middle of the seventeen season, 787 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: did not have any surgery, came back, played the final 788 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 1: two games and played well. It's Connor Williams, offensive tackle 789 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: out of Texas. You can also move into guard. He's 790 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: a player that's very athletic. Heading into this draft uh season, 791 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: or heading into the seventeen college season, excuse me. He 792 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 1: was considered the top tackle in the class. He had 793 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: a great sixteen. His twenty seventeen tape wasn't nearly as good. Again, 794 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: it's a medical issue. But at full strength Connor Williams, 795 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: if you're getting the twenty sixteen Connor Williams, he's the 796 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: and that's healthy. He's a guy that can step in 797 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 1: and probably start fewing year one. Well. People like him 798 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: because he has played some left tackle at a big 799 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: program at Texas. Obviously, he's got versatility where a lot 800 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: of folks think he's gonna move inside the guard in 801 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: the NFL. And by the way, it looks like the 802 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 1: Browns are not trading their pick because the pick is 803 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: in Well, that should be good news for some folks 804 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: who thought that another team would come in and swoop 805 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 1: that pick away from Cleveland and perhaps take the guy 806 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: the Giants want. Ian Rapp reports making some type of 807 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: report here that we can't hear, so we'll let you 808 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 1: know when we hear what he's saying. In any event, Uh, 809 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 1: the point about Williams is if you really like his versatility, 810 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: you like his techniqueak you like the fact that he's 811 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: played left tackle, those are all good reasons to want 812 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 1: to pick him. But again, why would you not want 813 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 1: to pick him? A bit undersized, a little bit under 814 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 1: three hundred pounds, and also the medical as we alluded to. 815 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 1: But certainly he's gonna be a viable second round pick 816 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: for somebody, whether or not it's up here at the 817 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: top of the round or later on in the round. 818 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 1: You have to believe he's not getting a Round three John, 819 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: no question about it. And I will point out that 820 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 1: as the NFL has done in the past. They're gonna 821 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: have players announced their picks in the second round the Giants, 822 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 1: and Justin Tuck has just tweeted out a picture of 823 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,839 Speaker 1: him holding the card that's not filled that yet because 824 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: Giants haven't put their picket. I was gonna say, wait 825 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 1: a minute for breaking the Giants pick on video on 826 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: Twitter before the pick is in, though, because he does 827 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,800 Speaker 1: not know they're picking up, but he will be announcing, 828 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: well what the pick is going to be. You can't 829 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: pick himself, by the way, So even though they need 830 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 1: a pass rush here, Tuck's not coming back now again. 831 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: The Browns pick is in at thirty third overall, the 832 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: Giants four overall. We'll see what ends up happening. We 833 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: talked about the three offensive linement very quickly, Paul. We're 834 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: gonna have somebody head to the podiums anounced to pick momentarily. 835 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,879 Speaker 1: We'll have that for you here on Big Blue Kickoff Live, 836 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: Um Cornerback. Three pretty good players Carlton Davis, Joshua Jackson, 837 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 1: and Isaiah Oliver. Three guys that are available. Harold Landry 838 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: to me, is the wild card, the best pass rusher left. 839 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: Who's the smallest, smaller guy. People worry about him stopping 840 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: the run, but he can get after the quarterback, another 841 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: guy with an injury concern and and to me, those 842 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: are the main culprits in my eyes, that are in 843 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 1: the mix here for the Giants at their thirty fourth 844 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: overall pick in this in the second round, Yeah, I 845 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 1: would think so. I also think that, you know, if 846 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: you're not the Giants, you have to say this because 847 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: maybe Cleveland's thinking about this. There are a couple of 848 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 1: wide receivers who were fringe first round, early second round, 849 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: guys who maybe either the target of the Browns or 850 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 1: a team that was trying to trade up that obviously 851 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,959 Speaker 1: didn't get to trade up. Christian Kirk, d d Chart, 852 00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton. Three wide receivers who were resumed to be 853 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: end of the first round, early second round. They were 854 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood where we are right now. Maybe the 855 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: Browns wanted running back to go with Carlos Hide and 856 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: Darius Guys, Ronald Jones, Nick Chubb, a bunch of guys 857 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: that are available. Somebody tweeted earlier report that they thought, 858 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: I think it was schefter that Nick Chubb will be 859 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: the first running back off the board and round number two. 860 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,240 Speaker 1: There were some whispers that maybe some off the field 861 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 1: stuff might be um influence Darius Guys dropping in the draft. 862 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 1: We can't spa again, that's one of the things that 863 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: we can't speak to. We don't have that information. But 864 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: most people thought he might be the second running back 865 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: off the board, and obviously that was not the case 866 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 1: with Rashad Penny going at the end of round one 867 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: to the Seattle Seahawks. If Cleveland's taking a running back, 868 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: they've got the right guy with the card in hand. 869 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: It is Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown, who 870 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: was going to announce the pick at the podium momentarily. So, uh, 871 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,439 Speaker 1: we will see if Cleveland decides they need to beef 872 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: up the running game. There weren't even some people who 873 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: thought that they might take Blankly in the first round 874 00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: with either pick number one or pick number four. So 875 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: this is not a reach here. If they decided to 876 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 1: keep it on the ground to go for a running back, 877 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: Chow and again Carlos Hyde is there, but wow, they 878 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: do go with an offensive lineman Paul and they do 879 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: pick a tackle, but it's not Connor Williams. They go 880 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: with Austin Corbett, who was a four years starter at 881 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:19,160 Speaker 1: left tackle and Nevada. Most people project him to guard 882 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: at the pro level because of some of his athletic testing. 883 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: Maybe it wasn't where they wanted to beat for him 884 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: to be a starting offensive tackle day one in the NFL, 885 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: But the Browns must think he can stay there. They 886 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: need a left tackle to replace Joe Thomas. So Austin Corbett, 887 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 1: who I thought was a second round pick um at 888 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,840 Speaker 1: some point in this round, goes to Cleveland Browns and 889 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: thirty third overall. Yeah, Ata Nevada and the things that 890 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,320 Speaker 1: were mentioned about him, uh nineteen raps at the combine, 891 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: he did not show a hawful lot of strength when 892 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: they got to the bench press, and that's something that 893 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: kind of hurt him a little bit. And also, quite honestly, 894 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:58,760 Speaker 1: the level of competition UH in the Mountain West at Nevada. Again, 895 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 1: these are the kinds of things, folks, when scouts are 896 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 1: trying to project you to the next level, they'll look 897 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 1: at the competition and they'll say, you know what, if 898 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: you didn't dominate as much as we wanted you to 899 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 1: at a lower level league, that's gonna raise a question mark. 900 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 1: So those are the two biggest question marks about Corbett. No, 901 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,479 Speaker 1: no doubt he would have been late second, maybe even 902 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: early third. This might have been a reach, to be 903 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: honest with you, but he is a legitimate prospect and 904 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: well the Brown's got him now. Now. He is a 905 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: good technician though, and that's one thing you gotta give 906 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: him credit for. He's not the best athlete in the world. Oh, 907 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: and the Giants have Boy, they weren't wasting any time. 908 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: But the Giants pick his in. Justin Tuck is to 909 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: the podium. Um, I would make a guess, what do 910 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 1: you think? Gotta be hog Molly Hernandez got to be 911 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: I agree, I think you're correct. We'll see what the 912 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: Giants doing. Number two. Boy, Dave got him and likes 913 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 1: to get those picks and fast. He doesn't this around Douzzy. 914 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: He said he would have gotten the Barkley pick in, 915 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: but the NFL made him wait till the five minute 916 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: mark before he made the selection. And Justin Tuck is 917 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: making the pick for the Giants at thirty four overall 918 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: and round number two, and the Giants will select their 919 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 1: second player of the two thousand and eighteen NFL Draft 920 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: in Dallas Justin Tuck announced the Giants have in fact 921 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: selected You Get Tell by Paul Smile. Will Hernandez had 922 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 1: a you tep A big fella. We talked about him 923 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: during the show a lot already, folks. He comes in 924 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: at six to seven pounds, he's built like a tank. 925 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: He gets his hands on you, he moves you. He's 926 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: a powerful guy, and he's somebody that will certainly make 927 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: the Giants first round pick. Se Kwon Barkley a more 928 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 1: effective running back notes that I took on him when 929 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:46,240 Speaker 1: I looked at the tape. Left guard four years starter power, 930 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: uh terrific with his hands, He's smart, he gets to 931 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: the second level. He's got a punch. He anchors well. Honestly, folks, 932 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: when you are that big, that wide and that powerful 933 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: athleticism isn't gonna be your forte. So you're not gonna 934 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 1: see him do a lot of pulling all the way 935 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: out to the side and stretch plays. That's not what 936 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 1: he does. He sees people in front of him and 937 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 1: he obliterates them. He wipes them off the face of 938 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 1: the earth, just runs straight ahead and knocks the trees 939 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 1: down in the middle of the forest. That's what will 940 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: her Nandez does and they got a great shot at 941 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,280 Speaker 1: him with his family celebrating the pick on NFL Network. 942 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:30,280 Speaker 1: And it's always good to see how happy the players get. Anyway, 943 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,399 Speaker 1: give you a couple of stats about this particular pick 944 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 1: for the Giant sees the sixth Giants guard picks since 945 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: two thousand three. Only the seventh, however, picks ninth. Since 946 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: it's the twelfth time the Giants have gone UH to 947 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: a guard in the first or second round. UH. They 948 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: had three first rounders over the course of their history, 949 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: John Hicks, Eric Moore, William Roberts UH. The last time 950 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 1: that they took a first or second round guard was 951 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:03,920 Speaker 1: Chris Snea in two thousand four, who, by the way, 952 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 1: was pick number thirty four in that draft. How's that 953 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: for a coincidence. This is the fifth time the Giants 954 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: have taken a player from U TEP. The last one 955 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 1: was Kevin Belcher. He was a center guard taken in 956 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: the sixth round in you remember Belcher started a number 957 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,440 Speaker 1: of games, was a good player, had a lot of potential, 958 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 1: had a broken leg on a car accident and sidetracked 959 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: his career. Interesting NFL stat that I want to give 960 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: you folks, and since the sary cap era started in 961 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 1: Nick Chubb running back from Georgia ghost to Cleveland with 962 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 1: the next pig also wasting no time getting that selection in. 963 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: By the way, since the Sary cap eras start of 964 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: the n thirty six guards okay, have been taken inside 965 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: the first thirty four picks of the draft. Sixteen of 966 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 1: them have made the Pro Bowl. John it is fertile 967 00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 1: territory for guards in the National Football League and uh 968 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: in terms of taking a guard on the first two 969 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: picks of the second round, well, that's only been done 970 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: six times in the salary cap era. Two of them 971 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 1: made the Pro Bowl, Trey Johnson of the Redskins, Chris 972 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,839 Speaker 1: Sny of the Giants. There's the background, there's the perspective. 973 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 1: Will Hernandez, welcome to Big Blue. And Paul, we talked 974 00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 1: about it a few weeks ago. We had Um a 975 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 1: guest on that wrote article UM and it detailed the 976 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,760 Speaker 1: bus rates at certain positions, and one of the safest 977 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 1: positions that you could always select was an interior offensive lineman. 978 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: They tend to have higher hit rates then some of 979 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 1: the other spots, mostly because teams don't tend to reach 980 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 1: for players like that, So I think the Giant's got 981 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,879 Speaker 1: excellent value here. And a couple of things I want 982 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: to touch on. One. This is actually the highest Dave 983 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 1: Gentleman's ever taken an offensive lineman as general manager. He 984 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: picked Trey Turner in the third round for the Panthers, 985 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,839 Speaker 1: So clearly he's a guy Hernandez that Gettleman really likes 986 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: to think he's worth a second round pick, because I 987 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: think Dave Gettleman has confidence in his ability to find 988 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 1: offensive lineman later in draft and undrafted free agents. Obviously 989 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 1: saw what happened with his undrafted free agent that signed 990 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: that pig money contract. This office isn't so yeah, Andrew 991 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,399 Speaker 1: Nora well of course at the Jacksonville Jaguar, so UM 992 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:18,239 Speaker 1: a very very impactful pick with her Nandez, and you 993 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: really think that um, he can help their first round 994 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: pick Sae Kwon Barkley Paul because for a running back, 995 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 1: you need to have an offensive line in front of 996 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 1: you to be effective, and will her Nandez will help 997 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,919 Speaker 1: them do that. Well. I think the fact that Dave 998 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:40,680 Speaker 1: Gettlman went so quickly to make that pick tells you 999 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 1: that he wasn't interested in fielding any phone calls. Wasn't 1000 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 1: interested in any kind of movement whatsoever. He was committed 1001 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 1: to Will her Nandez. He he must have felt that 1002 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 1: the value was was absolutely sensational and that there was 1003 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: going to be quite a drop between her Nandez and 1004 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: the other offensive linement because they basically hustled justin Tuck 1005 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: up to the podium. Well, and then the Browns hustle 1006 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 1: their guy up to the podium the picnic jobbing, and 1007 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: the Colts pick is in as well, and we'll see 1008 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 1: what they end up doing with the selection. So, um, 1009 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,919 Speaker 1: we'll keep keep that in mind as we move forward here, 1010 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: Um with the with the pics and let's take your 1011 00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,280 Speaker 1: calls here, we'll get some reaction to the Will Hernandez 1012 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 1: pick at two A one nine four, five one three 1013 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: two one nine four or five one three. Let's go 1014 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: back to the phones and say what's up to var 1015 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 1: in Atlanta online too? What's up to bar? How are 1016 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 1: you hey? What's going on there? Um? Off season has 1017 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: been crazy so far, but I think we got our 1018 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 1: two guys that we've been I guess dreaming for. Oh, 1019 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 1: so that that kind of locks up two spots for us. 1020 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 1: Call it because um, I wanted to talk about round 1021 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 1: three and what I feel like is our busy, biggest 1022 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:58,320 Speaker 1: need moving forward. And after about two years of watching 1023 00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:02,799 Speaker 1: Andrew Adams and uh Darius Thompson and even DRC a 1024 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 1: little bit back back there playing safety, I feel like 1025 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 1: it's tim gonna get an upgrade at that position, and 1026 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,319 Speaker 1: I really want us to take a safety in round three. 1027 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 1: Tavarious More safety out of Southern Mississippi. Yeah, you know 1028 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 1: what he and you actually, Tavar, It's funny you mentioned him. 1029 00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 1: He got He's a guy that was snubbed from the 1030 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 1: combine and I think a lot of people regret that 1031 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,839 Speaker 1: I've heard his name mentioned a lot as a third 1032 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 1: round pick. So I think that's a good one, right. 1033 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: He's six two, the runs, the four, three, four, Yep, 1034 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,360 Speaker 1: he's he's a playmaker. I feel like that will be 1035 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,880 Speaker 1: the perfect compliment to landing Collins to the entire defense. 1036 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,720 Speaker 1: And it will finally, because I mean to be honest, 1037 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 1: there's been so many big plays last season where, uh, 1038 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 1: you know, big touchdowns where Darry and Tom Darry Thompson 1039 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 1: would just missed the tackle, you know, So we don't 1040 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: have any short tacklers back to their accent of of Collins. 1041 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 1: So I think that that should be our next pick. Um. 1042 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: All right, I know wide receiver is another you know, 1043 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: uh position to it that we should look at, but 1044 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,320 Speaker 1: I feel like we should go safety. I appreciate the 1045 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 1: call it of our good stuff. Man. Yeah, I look. 1046 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 1: I think I think safety is what I would call 1047 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 1: a sneaky need. You know you have Andrew Adams, you 1048 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 1: know what he is, obviously, Darren Thompson's I know he's 1049 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 1: technically give me a third year player, but it's really 1050 00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: going to be a saft Michael Chomps Thomas too, you do, 1051 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 1: That's true. Who's more of a special teams guy, but 1052 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: he can also play safety, no question about it. So 1053 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,719 Speaker 1: I think that's one of those sneaky needs. If you 1054 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: see moving this way, Tavar, if you see a guy 1055 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 1: that has a second round grade and he's by far 1056 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: the best player on the board and he's a safety 1057 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,360 Speaker 1: and he's there in the third round, I wouldn't have 1058 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,759 Speaker 1: a problem picking him, but I wouldn't consider it on 1059 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: the same level as say, cornerback or linebacker or pass rusher. Yeah. 1060 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that, John, And quite honestly, the 1061 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: Giants do have two picks at the beginning of the 1062 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 1: third round? Who knows? I mean, this second round just started. 1063 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 1: Is it possible that they do something with those picks. 1064 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: Maybe they move up into the bottom of the second round. 1065 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 1: If they see something they really like, maybe they moved 1066 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 1: down to the third round. I have no idea, So 1067 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you I'm way premature here to be 1068 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 1: talking about who the Giant should be looking at in 1069 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: the third round. That's just me. Remember, they only have 1070 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,239 Speaker 1: six picks, so it's not like they have a lot 1071 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: of inventory here to try. They don't. They really don't. 1072 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 1: So you know, I just assume kind of let this 1073 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: round play out and then we'll get we'll get to 1074 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 1: who we think should be the third round picks as 1075 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 1: we get a lot closer. Right now, I think it's 1076 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,719 Speaker 1: just pretty cool that Will Hernandez is gonna be coming 1077 00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 1: to the medal lands. Because I gotta tell you something, folks. 1078 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 1: From the moment John told me about him, and then 1079 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 1: I started scouting him. Uh, this guy is just a 1080 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: horse and he he's a left guard, by the way, 1081 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 1: which must mean that mamma is gonna wind up flopping 1082 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 1: the right guard. I don't think you can always have 1083 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: an end to play right if you I don't. I 1084 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 1: don't know if if that is the power side by 1085 00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: the way you always talk about it, it is, it is, 1086 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 1: But I'm thinking her Nandez and Solder next to each other. 1087 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,360 Speaker 1: That's a lot of skin and bones and muscle and beef. 1088 00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 1: Solder at six seven, he's a big dude, and of 1089 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 1: course you stick Hernandez next to him, four year starter 1090 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: at that position. Do you really want to change him 1091 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,799 Speaker 1: and make him go to the other side. I don't know. 1092 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,839 Speaker 1: They'll probably talk to both of them and see how 1093 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 1: it works out. But I wouldn't be surprised if Fernandez 1094 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: is the left guard. And omam Aid did play right 1095 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: guard his little three two years in the League of 1096 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 1: Tampa in Chicago, but his last two years he's been 1097 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 1: at left guard. So that's the way I'm seeing there 1098 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: has there is some historical flexibility there on omam May's part. 1099 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: And Darius Leonard Paul, one of your potential third round 1100 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 1: linebacker targets off the board to the Indianapolis Colts at 1101 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: pick number thirty six. Yeah, now that's high for me, 1102 00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 1: but I do like him. Uh. He plays extremely well 1103 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,320 Speaker 1: in space tracks the ball down very well. He's athletic, 1104 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 1: he's quick, he's got good horizontal movement. Um. I like him. 1105 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:51,880 Speaker 1: He avoids traffic, he makes plays, he's a good player. 1106 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: And uh wow. But but that I thought was a 1107 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: little bit high. And you know what I'm seeing in 1108 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 1: the draft, Paul. We had four linebackers go in the 1109 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 1: first round. Now even the linebacker here Goo at the 1110 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,839 Speaker 1: top of the second round, and is this their second pick? 1111 00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 1: The Colts are they announcing anybody looks like they are. 1112 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,320 Speaker 1: The pick is in the thirty seven the culture picking 1113 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 1: back to backburn. That's one of the guys we talked 1114 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 1: about as a second round selection, but he's taken over 1115 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,720 Speaker 1: James Daniels. You're right, Paul, there must be serious medical 1116 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,399 Speaker 1: concerns with that name and should we also know that 1117 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 1: in the first five picks of the second round, we 1118 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: are now seeing three offensive lineman go off the board. 1119 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 1: That's the run right now, folks. And that's the trend. 1120 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,640 Speaker 1: And by the way, what the point I was making before, 1121 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 1: you know, Dave got them and talking about the myth 1122 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 1: of the de value of the running back, and we've 1123 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 1: seen it kind of come back in recent years. The 1124 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 1: running back position. I think we're seeing it with the 1125 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,879 Speaker 1: linebacker position now too. And do you know why? It's 1126 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 1: the run pass option. Yeah, those plays happen so quickly. 1127 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 1: Corners and safeties don't help all that much. You need 1128 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,399 Speaker 1: the You need smart, fast linebackers to get in those 1129 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: passing lanes to disrupt those type of rhythm plays. And 1130 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: I think teams understand that you need good linebackers to 1131 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:05,240 Speaker 1: disrupt those new things that are coming into NFL offenses. 1132 00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,320 Speaker 1: And I think linebackers are gaining a little bit of 1133 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 1: value because of that. All right, let's get some more reaction. Uh, 1134 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: Sean and Philly not only online one, Let's go to 1135 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 1: him next. What's up Sean? Hey, how you guys doing? Hey? Lance? Hey, 1136 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 1: Pauliddon legend? How isn't here? Wait? Wait? First of all, 1137 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:23,359 Speaker 1: First of all, Lance is a lot shorter than John. Yes, 1138 00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: and much less good looking by myself. That's okay, I'm 1139 00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,240 Speaker 1: just messed with you, Shan, It's all good. What's up, hey, Paully? 1140 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: How good does it feel to have a draft for 1141 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 1: the first time in such a long time where what 1142 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,840 Speaker 1: you want and what you expect actually happens. It's not 1143 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 1: a shot at Jerry Lease. But like I'm very excited 1144 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:48,120 Speaker 1: about gettleman Um so impressed. I love how quick to 1145 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: pick is into he knows what he wants, he trust 1146 00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 1: his board, and for the most time I've been waiting 1147 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: for a draft like this. How excited are you about 1148 00:55:57,320 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 1: Boon Barkley? Paul D I think that Sequon Barkley does 1149 00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 1: so much for this club, not just because of the 1150 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,720 Speaker 1: versatility that he brings, but because he changes the entire 1151 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:11,400 Speaker 1: dynamic of this football team, from the defensive coordinators on 1152 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: Monday Night who will stay up late worrying about how 1153 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:18,240 Speaker 1: to defend him and Odell Beckham Jr. To the time 1154 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 1: that you actually get him on the field in the game, 1155 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,799 Speaker 1: to where he will allow the Giants defense to dictate 1156 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,399 Speaker 1: whatever it is they want to do on Sunday, which 1157 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:33,319 Speaker 1: will in turn help field position and also help them 1158 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 1: with time of possession, two critical things that we have 1159 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: learned over the years have become more and more important 1160 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:44,760 Speaker 1: as teams try to shorten games and try to strategically 1161 00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 1: beat the opposition instead of just going out there and 1162 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,799 Speaker 1: winging the ball around. Teams are finally starting to turn 1163 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:53,399 Speaker 1: the corner on this John to where it's not just 1164 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 1: throw the ball like a video game. They're starting to 1165 00:56:56,080 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: play more field position and a little bit more running game, 1166 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:04,319 Speaker 1: figuring out that that kind of strategy could be extremely effective. Absolutely, 1167 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 1: and I'm just so grateful to the organization for the 1168 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: respect and the love that they're given the Eli. This 1169 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 1: is gonna prolong his life, make them so much more effective. 1170 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 1: I just think the way that they're setting it up, 1171 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 1: it seemed like it never was a question about Eli 1172 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: with gettleman Um and like, I just love him and 1173 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 1: he takes a lot of hits and and takes you know, 1174 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:28,960 Speaker 1: he gets the praise when it's good and he gets 1175 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,920 Speaker 1: all the bad when it's bad. I'm just so grateful 1176 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:36,000 Speaker 1: that it's going to prolong Eli's life, his his playing 1177 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 1: at the top nots level. I'm I'm just very excited 1178 00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 1: about the season. I appreciate you guys taking the call, 1179 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 1: and I just love the show. Thanks very thank you 1180 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 1: for calling. And he shouldn't just think that about Barkley, 1181 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 1: because I have a feeling Eli is going to like 1182 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 1: Will Hernandez too. Yeah, no question. And let me say 1183 00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 1: this too, by the way, know you mentioned it's nice 1184 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:55,400 Speaker 1: to be able to go into a draft and get 1185 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: the players you want. Well, not to be dour, that's 1186 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,680 Speaker 1: what happens. And you're picking so high. Yeah, when you're 1187 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 1: picking second, is only one team in front of it's 1188 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 1: easy to get the guy that you want. You don't 1189 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 1: have to wait eight team picks before you're selecting somebody. 1190 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 1: It makes your life a lot easier. Now, that's exactly 1191 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 1: the point I was gonna make, makes it a lot simpler. 1192 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: It's something that every general manager who I've dealt with, 1193 00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 1: from George Junk to early. Of course you did, Jerry 1194 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 1: reached to Dave Gettlman have made a point of singing, 1195 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:26,360 Speaker 1: we would not like to have a habit of doing this. Yes, 1196 00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:29,439 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers pick at thirty eight is in their heading 1197 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:31,919 Speaker 1: to the podium. Rob rang one of our good draft 1198 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 1: analyst Paul Is, tweeted out hearing that LSU running back 1199 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 1: Darius Guys may tumble today, So something to keep an 1200 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: eye on um. And then we're gonna see who the 1201 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 1: Buccaneers select. I believe that's Ronde Barber up there is 1202 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 1: un once it's tick in a buck's disguise. I'm pretty 1203 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 1: sure that's Ronde, and he'll be announcing the Buccaneers pick 1204 00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 1: here and number thirty eight overall in round number two. 1205 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: I'll have that pick just to say, yeah, by the way, 1206 00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 1: we do expect Will Hernandez to be coming on our 1207 00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 1: program at some time.

Ronald Jones running back 1213 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: usc off the board to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. For sure, 1214 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 1: that's a nice fit for them. They need a running 1215 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 1: back with Doug Martin moving on, so uh, try to 1216 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 1: add some balance of that Buccaneers offense. We'll see how 1217 00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 1: that goes for them. Two five, one three. Let's get 1218 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 1: back to the phone to say what's up.

So I'm just 1226 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 1: it's been a great draft and I've been listening to 1227 01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 1: you guys for a long time and I'm finally getting through. 1228 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: So i just wanted to let you guys to say him, 1229 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm glad that things are going our way.

There are more picks to come. 1232 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,040 Speaker 1: Thank you you great stuff, and appreciate you being a 1233 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 1: loyal listener, and thank you for calling in. We're happy 1234 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 1: to get you on and chat Giants football with you. 1235 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 1: Don't be a stranger. We love to hear from you again. 1236 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to Andre and Rochester. He's up next on 1237 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 1: Big Blue Kick Golf Live Special Friday Night Draft Edition. 1238 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: What's up, Andre, it was going on. I'm I'm with 1239 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:44,440 Speaker 1: other fans. I'm loving this draft, man, And just to 1240 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 1: shuttle off the other color um. It does seem like 1241 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 1: every time the draft comes, the other team picks whoever 1242 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 1: point he was. But this year is different because the 1243 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: Giants are picking second. You know, that's happened so often 1244 01:00:58,040 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 1: to me in the last half a dozen years of 1245 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: especially in the first round. D J Fluker, Jack Conklin, 1246 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 1: Oh sure that's right, Sheriff, that's right, Zack Martin. How 1247 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:12,880 Speaker 1: many of these guys, And by the way, James Daniels 1248 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:15,920 Speaker 1: off the board to the Bears at thirty ninth overall, 1249 01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 1: So how about this, We've had seven picks, four have 1250 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: been offensive linemen, to have been running backs, and one's 1251 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 1: been a linebacker. So much for premium positions. Huh, well, 1252 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:36,880 Speaker 1: bottom line yet our hands. I believe he will be 1253 01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 1: available in round three. I'm not positive he's going to 1254 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 1: be available, and round number four he is in Dallas. 1255 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: By the way, they showed him on tell. He's a 1256 01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 1: great kid. He has he has made the trip, and 1257 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 1: they certainly are hoping that he will get picked tonight 1258 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 1: because you know that'll be a big splash of excitement 1259 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 1: for him. But I really think that, you know, when 1260 01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:56,800 Speaker 1: just discussing for one second and call, I'll let you 1261 01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:58,200 Speaker 1: get to your on the point. I just want to 1262 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: say this, John's pointing out how the offensive linemen are going. 1263 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 1: This again reaffirms the philosophy that football once again is 1264 01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 1: going back to being one of the trenches. Here just this. Yes, 1265 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 1: I I really am funny. Thank you called it please. 1266 01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:16,960 Speaker 1: I needed I needed to make that ps A. So 1267 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 1: thank thank you so much. Go right ahead. You're welcome, guys. 1268 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 1: You guys feel like family. And um do you think, 1269 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 1: um he'll fit into James Betcher's system if we do 1270 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 1: get our hands on him and I'll take it off. Yeah, 1271 01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,439 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call, Andrey, thanks. So. Look, the good 1272 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 1: thing about James Betcher and his philosophy, now we haven't 1273 01:02:33,640 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: seen him actually do it in person yet, but what 1274 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 1: we saw in Arizona and what he kind of talked 1275 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,160 Speaker 1: about when we spoke to him a few weeks ago, 1276 01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 1: Paul was he will adjustice defensive schemes based on the personnel. 1277 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,480 Speaker 1: And Jackie Griffin. If there's one thing he is, well, 1278 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:49,400 Speaker 1: it's a great athlete. The second thing he is is 1279 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 1: that he's really versatile. He can rush the passer, he 1280 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 1: can play linebacker. He ran a four four, so he 1281 01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 1: can even run around. Maybe it's safety at some point. 1282 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:00,280 Speaker 1: So I do think James Betcher would find a way 1283 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,640 Speaker 1: to use him in one way, shape or form in 1284 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 1: a sub package. Yeah, you know, a a veteran Pro 1285 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 1: Bowl linebacker who I was speaking with over the course 1286 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 1: of the last couple of days, said to me, he 1287 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,959 Speaker 1: will certainly help you on special teams, and he will 1288 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 1: help you in the sub package. In sub way, he 1289 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: won't probably be in every down linebackers, but he's only 1290 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 1: two twenty. That's unlikely. So the question becomes, how high 1291 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 1: do you draft a guy who you believe isn't going 1292 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,440 Speaker 1: to be a guy who plays the majority of the plays. 1293 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: You know he'll be on specials, even in the sub package, 1294 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,520 Speaker 1: he may not be in the majority of those. So 1295 01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 1: how do you how do you rate that? Where where 1296 01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:45,919 Speaker 1: do you go? Fourth round, fifth round? Where that's where 1297 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:49,000 Speaker 1: it comes down to. It's how many plays a game 1298 01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 1: do you think you can get out of him? It's 1299 01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 1: an extra question in addition to the talent, the medical, 1300 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 1: the intangibles, which by the way, are all good in 1301 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:01,600 Speaker 1: his case, off the charts by the great, great, great kid. 1302 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 1: And again that's why I think top of round three 1303 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:06,880 Speaker 1: might be a little rich. I do think that, but 1304 01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 1: I think I think once you get to you know, 1305 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 1: a pick eighty, I think you're getting in the neighborhood. 1306 01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 1: And we had some guys, some of the experts we 1307 01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,440 Speaker 1: had during the combine when we were out there say 1308 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:20,600 Speaker 1: they thought probably fourth and fifth was the most likely scenario, 1309 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 1: didn't we That was before he worked out and he 1310 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,240 Speaker 1: did well. Yeah, that's why I think maybe back in 1311 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,840 Speaker 1: the round three, if if, if things go well for him, 1312 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 1: off to wait and see the Broncos pick his in. 1313 01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:31,200 Speaker 1: We'll let you know what it is when they make 1314 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 1: the announcement. Julian and Florida. Let's go to him next. 1315 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:40,680 Speaker 1: What's up? Julian, Hey, what's up? And a great how 1316 01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:43,640 Speaker 1: are you? Lance? Again? I don't know how this is happening, 1317 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 1: because trust me, if this was Lance, you would see 1318 01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:48,640 Speaker 1: probably about the top of his head. Now it is 1319 01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:52,760 Speaker 1: John Schmelkin, Paul to Tino, how are you? Julian? I 1320 01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 1: should let you know you got you and Lance down 1321 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:57,760 Speaker 1: very very You know what. It's funny, Julian, you know 1322 01:04:57,800 --> 01:05:00,200 Speaker 1: who always used to tell us that Mike Garret Solo 1323 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:04,160 Speaker 1: used to joke that me and Land sounded exactly alike 1324 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 1: when we used to have on the phone to do 1325 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 1: interviews and he could never figure out who was asking 1326 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 1: the question. He can yeah, he couldn't tell the difference. 1327 01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:12,920 Speaker 1: I promise you That's why that guy A couple of 1328 01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure, said Lance, and Johnny. I am PAULI sorry, 1329 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't even know Johnny. And by the way, I'm 1330 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 1: not sure if I should take that as a compliment 1331 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,560 Speaker 1: or not. Anyway, No, no, you guys a man. Okay, 1332 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 1: this this least to my next point. First of all, 1333 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 1: you guys are awesome. Thank you. I am an avid lizard, 1334 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 1: a listener. I'm just probably like the fifth time I 1335 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:33,720 Speaker 1: called in, But uh, I really appreciate what you guys 1336 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 1: have done throughout the whole draft. Last year I thought 1337 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:38,440 Speaker 1: was stressful at the whole tight end thing. The year 1338 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: before that was the whole apple thing. There is not 1339 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 1: have been a draft that was more stressful than the 1340 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 1: number two picks, unless PAULI can attest the two thousand 1341 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 1: four being more stressful. You know, I have to tell 1342 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 1: you after what has happened here in the last year, 1343 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 1: with the team having a subpar season and then all 1344 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 1: of the hoop blon and the change in administration and 1345 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 1: the coaching half and the headlines and so forth and 1346 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 1: so on, it it was. It was quite an eventful 1347 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 1: twelve months. And maybe for that reason, and and Dave 1348 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,440 Speaker 1: Gentleman coming in with so much promise, and those of 1349 01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:16,360 Speaker 1: us who know him have tremendous confidence in his ability 1350 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,920 Speaker 1: to make this thing right. Uh. Maybe for that reason 1351 01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 1: because I like Dave so much and I know Dave 1352 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 1: so well, and I believe in him so much. Yeah, 1353 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 1: maybe I'm I'm triple stressed, more so than I would 1354 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,560 Speaker 1: have been otherwise because that's how I feel so much 1355 01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:33,760 Speaker 1: for this guy and I and I know he's the 1356 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 1: guy who can make it right. Hey, look, I wanted 1357 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:37,919 Speaker 1: to be right for him. We talked about it though. 1358 01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,480 Speaker 1: The strength of this draft, based on where the Giants 1359 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:43,439 Speaker 1: were taking matched up well way well, and we've had 1360 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,360 Speaker 1: the last few drafts, it hasn't necessarily played out at all. Well, 1361 01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 1: desperate for a tackle and there's like one guy that 1362 01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 1: you want and you pray that he gets to you. 1363 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:55,520 Speaker 1: That wasn't the case this year, thankfully, you know. Yeah, 1364 01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:58,640 Speaker 1: And maybe that added to the stress because you knew 1365 01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 1: that there was going to be fruit there at the 1366 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:03,520 Speaker 1: market and you were hungry for the fruit and if 1367 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,560 Speaker 1: you don't get it, you stressed out over everything with 1368 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 1: the Giants, doesn't matter what it is. Let's be honest, 1369 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:10,480 Speaker 1: I'm Italian. What do you want? Courtland Sutton by the way, 1370 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,600 Speaker 1: to the different Broncos, there's a receiver for you. Put 1371 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 1: him with various Thomas. Those are two big boy wide receivers. 1372 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 1: Right there. Go ahead, Julia. What's your second point? Go ahead? Um. Well, first, 1373 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say just being a Giant fan is very stressful, 1374 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: even when we won those Super Bowls and wasn't very easy. 1375 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:27,880 Speaker 1: So you know, Julian hate to tell you. I hate 1376 01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:31,120 Speaker 1: to say, Julian, every NFL, every NFL fan feels that 1377 01:07:31,160 --> 01:07:33,280 Speaker 1: way rooting for their team. To Juliana, got some recommend 1378 01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: a recommendation for you. It works from me, at least somewhat. 1379 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:40,560 Speaker 1: Try to get at least five try to get in 1380 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,240 Speaker 1: at least five miles a day. It does help. It 1381 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:46,240 Speaker 1: takes the edge of and by the way, sleeping more 1382 01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: than five hours helps to Paul Dave get him is 1383 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: a does at two point? Oh guys, by the way, 1384 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 1: just so you know, they've get them in and pulse 1385 01:07:57,280 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 1: to share the same brain. So if they've got the man, 1386 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:02,160 Speaker 1: every goes out the doorfall. I wouldn't mind you being 1387 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 1: a GM Why would you go that way? Yeah, go ahead, 1388 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: thank you? So, Um, I would say that, uh, we 1389 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,320 Speaker 1: have we have to we absolutely have to go defense 1390 01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 1: all the way here. Now, I mean, I don't know, 1391 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 1: so I guess when I wanted to ask, well, here's 1392 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:22,240 Speaker 1: two things. Do we go corners or do we go 1393 01:08:22,320 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: linebackers next? Or the third pick? I know what I 1394 01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:25,800 Speaker 1: know you guys are gonna say it depends on which 1395 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 1: talent is there first. And my next question would be 1396 01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:33,840 Speaker 1: which defenses in the playoffs this year ran three four 1397 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:42,639 Speaker 1: I would love to know. Patriots, Patriots, Steelers, rams um 1398 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:44,760 Speaker 1: trying to go out to top of my head, Jaguars 1399 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 1: ran a four three, Chiefs ran a three four. UM 1400 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 1: trying to think Falcons ran a four three, Panthers ran 1401 01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 1: a four three. UM who came out of the a 1402 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 1: f C. South. What are the Titans run? They run 1403 01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 1: a four three? Titans run a four three. So I 1404 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:04,320 Speaker 1: think you look at the three or four teams that 1405 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,120 Speaker 1: run a three four that were in the playoffs, give 1406 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 1: a take, and and frankly, I might be missing one 1407 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,719 Speaker 1: or two. But you know what, honestly, and thanks called Jilian. 1408 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 1: We appreciate James Betcher. He's gonna run a multiple scheme 1409 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 1: and a hybrid. And even he has said to us, 1410 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,320 Speaker 1: don't call me a typical three four that's just not 1411 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 1: gonna do with justice. No, absolutely not. And like I've 1412 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:24,519 Speaker 1: said this before, I think nowadays, with the type of 1413 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:28,000 Speaker 1: as Paul would call them tweeters, I call them stand 1414 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,679 Speaker 1: up rushers coming out in the draft and a higher volume, 1415 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:32,320 Speaker 1: I think it has actually a lot of times it's 1416 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: easier to find three four personnel these days than it 1417 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:37,360 Speaker 1: is to find four three personnel with the because you 1418 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 1: see a lot more three four than four three in 1419 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 1: college these days, you really do. Yeah, I agree to 1420 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:45,080 Speaker 1: four five one three. I think Hudson and Brooklyn has 1421 01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 1: been holding along. Let' let's go to him next. Let's 1422 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:53,240 Speaker 1: up Hudson. Hey, what's up? Guys? Are we doing alright? Um? 1423 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 1: I just wanna say I originally wanted two giants to 1424 01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 1: trade down and get more picks, but it didn't work out, 1425 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:04,760 Speaker 1: and I'm happy with sa kwan it Hudson real quick. 1426 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 1: I just want to tell you something. The opportunity really 1427 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:09,840 Speaker 1: wasn't there. Uh. Me and Paul talked about it for 1428 01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:12,040 Speaker 1: a long time. If somebody backs up the truck with picks, 1429 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 1: we we'd beat down for that too. Based on what 1430 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 1: Dave Geteman said last night and from what we've people 1431 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:21,599 Speaker 1: we've talked to, that opportunity never came close to presenting himself, 1432 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:25,600 Speaker 1: presenting itself even after teams found out Sam Donald was 1433 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,040 Speaker 1: on the board. So unfortunately, I don't think that was 1434 01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:30,719 Speaker 1: a possibility. As as I like to say in the 1435 01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:35,639 Speaker 1: pison vernacular, the offer that they could not refuse never came. 1436 01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:37,920 Speaker 1: As Dave get him and said, hot dogs, pretzels and 1437 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 1: cracker jacks. Right, Okay, I accept that. I'm happy with 1438 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 1: Sa Kwan anything. I'm happy also with the with the 1439 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:49,639 Speaker 1: Hernandez pick. Okay, this is just a couple of names 1440 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,360 Speaker 1: I'd like to run off to suggest that we can 1441 01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:54,960 Speaker 1: get they go ahead. I think I think we need 1442 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:58,080 Speaker 1: to use one more pick one of the new two 1443 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:02,040 Speaker 1: next picks on the office to b Lineman perfectly like 1444 01:11:02,040 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 1: you said, John, you mentioned Jamarco Jones, uh Tyrelle Crosby, 1445 01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 1: also Orlando Brown, one of those three I would like 1446 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:11,840 Speaker 1: to have also up in the line. And if we 1447 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 1: can't get them, one of those work. Take scenario, there's 1448 01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 1: a guy Wyatt Teller from Virginia Tech. I think he's 1449 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:23,280 Speaker 1: really good to another road greater. He's a guard though 1450 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,640 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind having another road gread of guard in 1451 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,640 Speaker 1: the line of for us. Yeah, I honestly don't necessarily 1452 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:33,880 Speaker 1: think that with Greco and Jerry and mom Ay and 1453 01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 1: now Hernandez, you need you need tackles. I can't see 1454 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:41,320 Speaker 1: them taking another guard. I really can't. I will tell 1455 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:44,680 Speaker 1: you this. Martinez Rankin is still on the board if 1456 01:11:44,720 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 1: you're interested in a tackle. Now. He was a bit inconsistent, 1457 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 1: especially with his motor in college, but this is a 1458 01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 1: guy who had a solid second round, great on him 1459 01:11:53,439 --> 01:11:56,599 Speaker 1: by by most experts. Uh, he might be a name 1460 01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 1: to watch if you really wanted to take a tackle 1461 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: and he drops to the third out, Okay, I could 1462 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 1: accept that. Uh. After that, I think we need to 1463 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 1: go all defense. Um, there's a couple of edge defenders 1464 01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:16,120 Speaker 1: I like. I like, uh do two weeks yeah exactly 1465 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:18,920 Speaker 1: from Lake Forest. They have a guy from Oklahoma, so 1466 01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:23,800 Speaker 1: he's really he's another edge guy. Really, you have a 1467 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:26,640 Speaker 1: long name. It's hard to pronounce. I got it, I 1468 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:32,000 Speaker 1: got it. I've practiced this obania Okaron quo, n thank you. 1469 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 1: I've practiced that one. Good good. Um. There's a couple 1470 01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:39,840 Speaker 1: of safeties. I think it's really good. One Your call 1471 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:44,840 Speaker 1: is uh called earlier. Tavarus um More from Southern Myths 1472 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:50,720 Speaker 1: really good because they're white from West Virginia. Bates from 1473 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 1: Wake four. I like Jesse Bates. I I think he's 1474 01:12:53,080 --> 01:12:54,920 Speaker 1: a true free safety. If he's there at the top 1475 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:57,599 Speaker 1: around three, I would certainly think about it. We appreciate 1476 01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 1: the call man, thanks so much. Okay, what real quick, 1477 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:06,759 Speaker 1: real quick? The cornerbacks, I like, uh that cornerback Pari 1478 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:09,639 Speaker 1: Nickerson from Tulane really good. I think we could. He's 1479 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 1: a he's a slot guy. I think right. He's a 1480 01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:18,600 Speaker 1: smaller guy, yes, but really good hands getting fat and 1481 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:23,640 Speaker 1: who's your last guy? I think that was it. I 1482 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 1: appreciate the calling, my friend. Good stuff. Um. By the way, 1483 01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 1: the Titans traded up with the Raiders. I have not 1484 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,240 Speaker 1: seen details on that trade. Yea, I've been trying to 1485 01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:33,080 Speaker 1: find that. I can't. I want to have him. I'll 1486 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 1: give him to you. Uh, let's see if Ian Rappaport 1487 01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 1: has it here. Um they do not. Here we go. Um. 1488 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 1: Oakland traded their forty one overall pick to the Titans. 1489 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:44,880 Speaker 1: They get back fifty seven and eighty nine, So that's 1490 01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 1: a two and a three. That's a big price to 1491 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:50,640 Speaker 1: move up. For the Titans. So they did move up 1492 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 1: all the way from fifty seven to forty one, and 1493 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:54,760 Speaker 1: they needed a pass rusher and they got the best 1494 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,840 Speaker 1: one left and Harold Landry at a Boston college. So 1495 01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:01,040 Speaker 1: there goes, at least in my opinion, the last premier 1496 01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 1: true pass rusher on the board. And I think he's 1497 01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:06,719 Speaker 1: an outside linebacker in a three four. Now. They also 1498 01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:10,640 Speaker 1: took linebacker Rashaan Evans out of Tennessee UH in the 1499 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:14,040 Speaker 1: first round, so you know they've got an edge rusher 1500 01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:16,680 Speaker 1: and an outside linebacker. Again, however you want to name 1501 01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 1: them or quantify them, those were the two of the 1502 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 1: top four pseudo outside linebackers if you want to call 1503 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 1: it by position. UH. Pretty good take for them, no 1504 01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:29,280 Speaker 1: question about it. And you know they have young guys 1505 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,920 Speaker 1: on offense. They've Derek Derrick Henry running back. UH. They 1506 01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,280 Speaker 1: have Marcus Mariota quarterback. They used the first round pick 1507 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,080 Speaker 1: on Corey Davis last year. It was kind of slow 1508 01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:38,639 Speaker 1: coming along. They still Delaney Walker. They have a very 1509 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:41,439 Speaker 1: good offensive line in Tennessee, so they're they're trying to 1510 01:14:41,479 --> 01:14:44,559 Speaker 1: fortify that defense now and hope that Mariota take that 1511 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 1: next stop on the contra side of the ball, so 1512 01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 1: I think it makes sense as well. Two, five, one, three, 1513 01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:51,960 Speaker 1: You guys are great. We still have a full bank 1514 01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:53,719 Speaker 1: of calls. We're more than an hour into the show. 1515 01:14:54,120 --> 01:14:57,280 Speaker 1: Let's go to stops in Washington. He's been holding the longest. 1516 01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:00,400 Speaker 1: How are your stops. I'm doing great. I called you 1517 01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 1: earlier today. I staid, if we pick harry Nandez, I 1518 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:05,519 Speaker 1: will walk away from this jaft a happy man. So 1519 01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:08,439 Speaker 1: you're happy, completely Well, I'm walking away a happy man. 1520 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:14,160 Speaker 1: We got uh an offensive dynamic weapon. We got Hernandez. 1521 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:16,519 Speaker 1: I honestly feel like you picked two Pro bowlers, and 1522 01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 1: not only that, I feel like these two guys are 1523 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:21,400 Speaker 1: gonna put Eli back into the Pro Bowl. O'Dell is 1524 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:23,559 Speaker 1: gonna go to the Pro Bowl, and we're probably gonna 1525 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:26,639 Speaker 1: get you know, I just trust gentleman at this point. 1526 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 1: I feel like he's gonna kids keep making the right 1527 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:30,880 Speaker 1: picks for for the New York Giants, and I think 1528 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:33,519 Speaker 1: we I atview, we should go defense with the next 1529 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:36,280 Speaker 1: two picks. In my opinion, with the scheme change, we 1530 01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:39,479 Speaker 1: need the linebackers, we need the corners. Um. But I'm 1531 01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:42,719 Speaker 1: I am completely happy. I really I was nervous about 1532 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:44,360 Speaker 1: the Barkley pick. I was happy with it, but I 1533 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 1: was nervous about it because if you don't have the line, 1534 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:49,640 Speaker 1: what what what does it matter? But now when you 1535 01:15:49,680 --> 01:15:52,599 Speaker 1: look at from left all the way to right guard, 1536 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:56,080 Speaker 1: I am content with what we have and and and 1537 01:15:56,160 --> 01:15:58,120 Speaker 1: I just think we need an answer right tackle, and 1538 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 1: you know, I just trust gentleman. I feel like he 1539 01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:02,960 Speaker 1: might pull something in the late round. You know, David 1540 01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,559 Speaker 1: Deal was the right tackle who was the late round pick, 1541 01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 1: and the left tackle and the guard and a lot 1542 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:14,040 Speaker 1: of other things too. He was here the utility man. 1543 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm excuming happy with this drive. I haven't 1544 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:21,280 Speaker 1: walked away this excited from just from to pick in 1545 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 1: a long time. So that's great. And the guy, thank 1546 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,360 Speaker 1: you for all the honor. Cover appreciate, no, thank you, stars, 1547 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: appreciate the call with us. And I think made a 1548 01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:31,880 Speaker 1: couple of good points there. And we kind of talked 1549 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:34,719 Speaker 1: about the hypothetical effect. We asked multiple guests this question 1550 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:37,480 Speaker 1: over the course of our three months of draft preparation, 1551 01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 1: and this is the question we asked, would you rather 1552 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,360 Speaker 1: have Quentin Nelson and the running back at the top 1553 01:16:43,400 --> 01:16:45,680 Speaker 1: of the second round, which could be Darius Guys or 1554 01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 1: Nick Trump. Take your pick. It's turned out to drop. 1555 01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:50,280 Speaker 1: Would you rather have, say, Kwon Barkley and the offensive 1556 01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:52,120 Speaker 1: lineman you can get in the top of the second round, 1557 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:54,559 Speaker 1: which turned out that people Hernandez. Now the big question 1558 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:56,840 Speaker 1: there and what did I tell you what offensive lineman 1559 01:16:56,840 --> 01:16:58,880 Speaker 1: would be available, what running back would be available? What 1560 01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: did I tell you? I would take Barkley and the 1561 01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: offensive lineman over whoever the other combination, knowing what we 1562 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:08,080 Speaker 1: know now with who was available, that was the right move, 1563 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,919 Speaker 1: No question about. You got Hernandez and you got Barkley. 1564 01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 1: Those are two excellent players. And that was a calculation 1565 01:17:14,280 --> 01:17:16,160 Speaker 1: that I don't think Dave Gentleman made. He said, you 1566 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:18,040 Speaker 1: don't want to get too cute and think too far ahead. 1567 01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:19,640 Speaker 1: But we have an hour to fill every day and 1568 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 1: bigole kick off lives, so that's what we do. So 1569 01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 1: I think that was an interesting dynamic and they ended 1570 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 1: up you know, I think they made the right decision there. 1571 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,080 Speaker 1: I want to say about what the last callers said, 1572 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:34,560 Speaker 1: Hins making his confidence at pick number forty two overall. 1573 01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:37,639 Speaker 1: Mike Kasicki, the Penn State tight end, who's a heck 1574 01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 1: of a pass receiver, but not as much on the 1575 01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,800 Speaker 1: blocking shide. Not really. He hasn't really been asked to. 1576 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,080 Speaker 1: He's kind of been split out wide. But yeah, he's 1577 01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 1: also one of the many Penn State players their strength 1578 01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 1: and conditioning program. He blew the combine up with his numbers, 1579 01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 1: that is true. But but his lack of blocking was 1580 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 1: one of the reasons that Barkley got so criticized for 1581 01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 1: trying to get too fancy because they weren't getting a 1582 01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 1: lot of blocking off the edge. Didn't do that much 1583 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,920 Speaker 1: of that. But one thing I want to say to 1584 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:05,400 Speaker 1: the caller who just hung up, he's talking about the 1585 01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:09,040 Speaker 1: confidence in gettleman, Well, I want to tell I want 1586 01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 1: to tell you there's one thing that he has already 1587 01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:15,200 Speaker 1: shown in these first two picks that should enhance your confidence. 1588 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:20,639 Speaker 1: He is committed, he is assertive, and as John said, 1589 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,920 Speaker 1: he's not gonna play games and get too fancy. Because 1590 01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 1: both times the Giants were on the clock in the 1591 01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 1: first two rounds, he did not hesitate. He knew what 1592 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 1: he wanted. He shot that bow and arrow and he 1593 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 1: hit the bull's eye. He's not goofing around, he's not 1594 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:37,960 Speaker 1: playing games. He's not taking phone calls. He told us 1595 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 1: the other day when I was five years old, and 1596 01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 1: I lied and I got burned for it, and I 1597 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:44,800 Speaker 1: never lied again because I just don't lie. I'm not 1598 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:48,759 Speaker 1: didn't playing smoke screens. Dave Gettleman sees what he wants 1599 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:51,120 Speaker 1: and he goes and gets it, and you can have 1600 01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 1: a lot of confidence in that that's true. But at 1601 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:54,519 Speaker 1: the same time, I do think he was open to 1602 01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 1: moves like if yesterday he got a great trade offer 1603 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 1: for number two, he would have listened to it, he 1604 01:18:58,960 --> 01:19:00,840 Speaker 1: would have considered it, and he got a great trade 1605 01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:04,360 Speaker 1: off at four o'clock today forty You can't refuge. But 1606 01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:05,800 Speaker 1: you know, but you said he made the point. He's 1607 01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:08,200 Speaker 1: not making phone calls. He's he is listening to people. 1608 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: I don't think he's He said to us that he 1609 01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:12,680 Speaker 1: got phone calls for the two. He never said he 1610 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:16,000 Speaker 1: made any right. But I just don't want fans to 1611 01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:18,320 Speaker 1: misunderstand you and think that he was making these picks 1612 01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,879 Speaker 1: no matter what. He's someone that does believe in maintaining 1613 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 1: their flexibility. Without question, his ears were open, but he 1614 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:27,639 Speaker 1: was not picking up the phone dialing people. At least 1615 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:31,680 Speaker 1: my impression from everything he has told us is that 1616 01:19:31,760 --> 01:19:34,559 Speaker 1: he was always willing to listen due diligence, but he 1617 01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:37,640 Speaker 1: was not picking up the phone. He was going to 1618 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,120 Speaker 1: uh to be a sort of what it was he 1619 01:19:40,160 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 1: wanted to do. Have a Detroit Lions a trade. Patriots 1620 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:47,360 Speaker 1: had gotten this pick from the forty nine ers. I 1621 01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:49,360 Speaker 1: believe this is the pick they acquired in the Jimmy 1622 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:52,439 Speaker 1: Garoppolo trick. I'm not mistaken. And now the Lions have 1623 01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 1: gotten it from New England. Shockingly, h New England traded 1624 01:19:55,960 --> 01:19:57,559 Speaker 1: a draft pick. We haven't seen that before. I don't 1625 01:19:57,560 --> 01:20:00,559 Speaker 1: think right, but they moved down. Once we the details 1626 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 1: of the trade will get it to you, and when 1627 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:03,559 Speaker 1: most you have the Lion's pick will get that to 1628 01:20:03,640 --> 01:20:06,840 Speaker 1: you as well. I believe Nicholas and Pennsylvania has been 1629 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:13,920 Speaker 1: holding the longest. Let's go to him next. What's up? Nick? Hello? Hello? Hey? 1630 01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 1: Do you know what the next water thicket is? Because 1631 01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:23,760 Speaker 1: I'm basically called or I don't think that's I don't 1632 01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:27,040 Speaker 1: you know, to be honest with you, Uh, these were 1633 01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 1: not difficult with the Giants picking so high and understanding 1634 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:35,800 Speaker 1: that value met need. Uh you know, it wasn't that 1635 01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:38,000 Speaker 1: hard for me to nail this and so once me 1636 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 1: and you were in complete agreement on both these picks 1637 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:41,800 Speaker 1: on what we thought the Giants would do. I think 1638 01:20:41,800 --> 01:20:43,439 Speaker 1: we were all on the same page. To be honest 1639 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:46,720 Speaker 1: with you, it's crazy. It's gonna be a lot tougher 1640 01:20:46,960 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 1: when we get to the third round. Those two picks 1641 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,200 Speaker 1: are that are in the first handful, That's when it's 1642 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:54,280 Speaker 1: gonna get a little bit more difficult. And that's why 1643 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,040 Speaker 1: Dave Gentleman is getting the big box because he needs 1644 01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:59,840 Speaker 1: to make hits on the next few picks as well. 1645 01:21:00,120 --> 01:21:02,280 Speaker 1: It's a lot easier to get one in two when 1646 01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:04,880 Speaker 1: you're picking so high, but to get the productivity out 1647 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:06,479 Speaker 1: of the next few rounds, it's gonna be tough. What 1648 01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 1: else you got, Nicholas, No friends like thirty seven in 1649 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:16,920 Speaker 1: the league. Thought all right, Nicholas, thanks for the calling, man, 1650 01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 1: do me a favor if you want to call back, 1651 01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 1: that's cool. Keep makes you. Then whatever is going on 1652 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:22,880 Speaker 1: in the background, let you if you had this on 1653 01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 1: speaker or whatever, just make sure you clean that up. 1654 01:21:25,800 --> 01:21:27,439 Speaker 1: We'll we'll, we'll be happy to put you back up. 1655 01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:29,880 Speaker 1: And Nate Burlson is at the podium ready to make 1656 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions picks that looks like the old every 1657 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 1: um Eddie Murphy jacket that you study war in um 1658 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:41,920 Speaker 1: uh Beverly Little Stop. Yeah, oh that's right. Yeah, I 1659 01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:45,479 Speaker 1: love that movie. Don't do that please. I believe Will 1660 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,559 Speaker 1: Hernandez will be coming on with us shortly, and just 1661 01:21:47,600 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 1: want to keep your breast of that, folks, And we 1662 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:50,840 Speaker 1: hope to try to have the two third round picks 1663 01:21:50,840 --> 01:21:52,800 Speaker 1: you haveter we make those selections across our fingers. We're 1664 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:54,920 Speaker 1: gonna do our best. And Nate Burlson is making quite 1665 01:21:54,920 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 1: the speech because he wasn't up there a while and 1666 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:57,800 Speaker 1: they still haven't put the name of the pick up. 1667 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 1: Does he though he also played for the Viking, because 1668 01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:03,000 Speaker 1: right now he's acting like a lifelong lion. Yes, well, 1669 01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:04,680 Speaker 1: I think the Lines were his last team, Am I 1670 01:22:04,760 --> 01:22:07,840 Speaker 1: right about that? I believe so. But he did play 1671 01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:10,160 Speaker 1: several years with a guy. I think he still thinks 1672 01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:12,320 Speaker 1: he's hosting Good Morning Football. He's but that for ten minutes. 1673 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,120 Speaker 1: Maybe he wants to get there all the way to 1674 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 1: the morning and then it will be he's trying to 1675 01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:19,479 Speaker 1: steal the stage like Drew Pearson did last year. And 1676 01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 1: he made that pick. Yeah, exactly, Just so you're aware 1677 01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:25,360 Speaker 1: of the Lions are picking at number forty three. Giants 1678 01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:28,320 Speaker 1: have picks number sixty six and sixty nine. So we 1679 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:31,160 Speaker 1: got quite a bit of ways as Oh, carry on 1680 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 1: Johnson running back out of Auburn, who again, folks, he 1681 01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,759 Speaker 1: is one of those guys in the second cluster after 1682 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 1: Blakeley that we've talked about now for several months since 1683 01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:45,639 Speaker 1: the combine. There's there's probably five or six running backs 1684 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 1: who are who are tightly grouped together in that second cluster. 1685 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:52,320 Speaker 1: He's not many of them left for shot. Penny's gone, 1686 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,360 Speaker 1: carry On, Johnson's gone, Ronald Jones has gone, Nick Chubb 1687 01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:58,439 Speaker 1: is gone, which tells me you're looking at Darius Guys 1688 01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 1: and I think that's the last one. If I'm not mistaken, Paul, 1689 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,040 Speaker 1: I'm not missing anyone, am I. No, he's He's the 1690 01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 1: next one in the cluster. After that, there's a little 1691 01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:11,200 Speaker 1: bit of a break. Hines is a scat back on 1692 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:14,120 Speaker 1: a full timer. He's another level down, And we talked 1693 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 1: about it that you could get a top running back 1694 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:17,639 Speaker 1: to the top of the second round. That turned out 1695 01:23:17,640 --> 01:23:21,160 Speaker 1: to be true. Um, unless unless Darius Guys doesn't pull 1696 01:23:21,240 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: the parachute and pick up somewhere here. There isn't gonna 1697 01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 1: be an every down starting caliber running back available at 1698 01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:29,120 Speaker 1: the top round three. The way this is going in 1699 01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:32,920 Speaker 1: one to three, four, five, we've had eleven picks here 1700 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:37,799 Speaker 1: in the second round. We've now had three running backs taken, 1701 01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:42,720 Speaker 1: and we've had four offensive linemen taken, and we've had 1702 01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 1: two linebackers taken along with one wide receiver and a 1703 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:48,559 Speaker 1: tight end. That's pretty good. Well, you know, John, I 1704 01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:51,599 Speaker 1: will tell you one thing, um a lot of what 1705 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:53,960 Speaker 1: we had learned to combine. And by the way, folks, 1706 01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:55,519 Speaker 1: if you did get a chance to watch our combined 1707 01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:57,920 Speaker 1: shows from Indianapolis, we had a blast. We hope you 1708 01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:59,800 Speaker 1: did too. Yeah, and we invite you to do it 1709 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:02,280 Speaker 1: next year.

Because we really took out 1711 01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:07,160 Speaker 1: the shovels and dug deep and and tried to get 1712 01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:10,519 Speaker 1: as many draft experts as possible who were all there. 1713 01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:13,280 Speaker 1: It's like an NFL Conventions of I mean, and and 1714 01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:16,519 Speaker 1: we really felt so well prepared after coming back from 1715 01:24:16,520 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 1: Indy and a lot of what we learned is coming 1716 01:24:19,280 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 1: to the forefront here this weekend.

That was a lot of fun. 1719 01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:26,960 Speaker 1: I learned a lot about these prospects in January that 1720 01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 1: I usually wouldn't figure out until I got to the combine. So, uh, 1721 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:32,040 Speaker 1: if you haven't checked out our draft covers before, and 1722 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:33,760 Speaker 1: make sure you can even go back and look at 1723 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:35,360 Speaker 1: the archives if you want.

That's what drives 1782 01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 1: for me to play like that every single slap and 1783 01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:23,640 Speaker 1: will you know, and I don't think a lot of 1784 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:25,479 Speaker 1: people being from you tep. You guys had a rough 1785 01:27:25,560 --> 01:27:27,880 Speaker 1: year last year. I knew really who you were before 1786 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,639 Speaker 1: that Senior Bowl. How important was that event for you 1787 01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:34,120 Speaker 1: in this process to get on people's radar against some 1788 01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:36,759 Speaker 1: of the other best prospects in the country, to show 1789 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 1: what you could do against other great players on the 1790 01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:44,320 Speaker 1: field with helmets and pads on where you're the most comfortable. Well, 1791 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:46,120 Speaker 1: you know what, I knew it was gonna it was 1792 01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:49,160 Speaker 1: part of the process. Especially being from a smaller school. 1793 01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:51,560 Speaker 1: I knew that I wasn't gonna get the same recognition 1794 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:53,760 Speaker 1: as somebody else had a bigger school out of one 1795 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:55,679 Speaker 1: of the power of five school so it was really 1796 01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:58,599 Speaker 1: important for me to get noticed. I did everything I could. 1797 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:00,880 Speaker 1: I played as hard as I could every matt, so 1798 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:05,120 Speaker 1: you know, coaches and scouts would would notice me somehow. Um, 1799 01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: you know, it's funny. It was one of the reasons too, 1800 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:08,880 Speaker 1: why I put the Neir goal on. It was something 1801 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:12,920 Speaker 1: that differentiated me and something that stood out, So I 1802 01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 1: wanted to that that was that was my goal. I 1803 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:18,080 Speaker 1: knew it wasn't just based on recognition and people knowing 1804 01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 1: who you are that gets you to the next level. 1805 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 1: But I knew it was part of the process and 1806 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:25,200 Speaker 1: I knew I needed it. So, um, yeah, that's that's 1807 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 1: what I did. Well, it is important to me. Let 1808 01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 1: me build off of what you just said about understanding. 1809 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,519 Speaker 1: You didn't play for one of the Power Conferences and 1810 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 1: so a lot of people may have overlooked you a 1811 01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:38,240 Speaker 1: little bit. As you make the transition into the National 1812 01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:41,320 Speaker 1: Football League as a rookie, what do you believe you're 1813 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 1: going to have to do to make as quick an 1814 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:48,840 Speaker 1: impact as possible on the New York Giants. Well, first, 1815 01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:50,679 Speaker 1: I gotta be able to protect you know, I gotta 1816 01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:53,160 Speaker 1: be able to protect elive. I gotta come out with 1817 01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 1: the same attitude that got me here. I gotta give 1818 01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,759 Speaker 1: him exactly everything that you know, everything that's the reason 1819 01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:01,559 Speaker 1: that they're drafting me for give him that and more 1820 01:29:01,920 --> 01:29:05,680 Speaker 1: build off of that, you know. But and will, I 1821 01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:08,800 Speaker 1: think what some people don't realize is you played in 1822 01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:12,120 Speaker 1: a pretty pro style system to you tap, so how 1823 01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:14,720 Speaker 1: well prepared do you think you're gonna be for the 1824 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:16,759 Speaker 1: type of game that waits for you in the NFL 1825 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:20,519 Speaker 1: because of the offense you ran it, Utap, you know 1826 01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 1: that's that was the best part about being at un type. 1827 01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:25,960 Speaker 1: I got to play for Sean Cooler, coach, a great coach, 1828 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:30,200 Speaker 1: former NFL coach and current NFL coach now. Um and 1829 01:29:30,520 --> 01:29:34,040 Speaker 1: he you know, he made it. He made it exactly 1830 01:29:34,600 --> 01:29:37,400 Speaker 1: what almost the NFL is now. So I got to 1831 01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:39,760 Speaker 1: learn a lot, even though without a smaller school, I 1832 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: got to learn so much from him. And not just 1833 01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 1: saying but coach refers to my online position coach. Him 1834 01:29:45,320 --> 01:29:49,200 Speaker 1: and Sean Coolin were really good friends and they have 1835 01:29:49,360 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 1: basically the same mentality when it came to football. So 1836 01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:53,719 Speaker 1: the fact that I was able to learn from both 1837 01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:56,040 Speaker 1: of them, um, you know, I think that's what really 1838 01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:58,759 Speaker 1: got me to prepare for the next level for the NFL, 1839 01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:01,560 Speaker 1: and I think I'm gonna be very well what a 1840 01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:04,400 Speaker 1: dead had start. Of course, still ot to learn, but 1841 01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:08,000 Speaker 1: with with a nice had start. Will Hernandez of you, 1842 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:10,640 Speaker 1: Chap is the Giants second round pick. He joins us 1843 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:13,800 Speaker 1: here on Big Blue Kick Off Live. Will, what is 1844 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:17,080 Speaker 1: the thing that gratifies you the most about your game 1845 01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:19,680 Speaker 1: As an offensive lineman. You just mentioned Eli Manning, you 1846 01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:22,040 Speaker 1: want to protect him. That's a great thing for an 1847 01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:24,720 Speaker 1: old lineman to do. To block for somebody like say 1848 01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 1: Kwan Barkley is probably going to get your juices flowing 1849 01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 1: as well. I would imagine as an old lineman you 1850 01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:34,600 Speaker 1: love to make pancake blocks. What what is the aspect 1851 01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:37,400 Speaker 1: of the game that you enjoy the most, that gives 1852 01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 1: you the most gratification you know, well, of course, like 1853 01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 1: you said, I gotta protect and I gotta be able 1854 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,439 Speaker 1: to open up poles. That just comes with the job. 1855 01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:49,120 Speaker 1: But what it really gets me excited is being able 1856 01:30:49,120 --> 01:30:51,200 Speaker 1: to connect with the rest of the old lineman and 1857 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,920 Speaker 1: work together. You know. Also the line as a security 1858 01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:57,000 Speaker 1: everything has to come together and work exactly the same 1859 01:30:57,560 --> 01:30:59,800 Speaker 1: all throughout. If there's one little scene that goes wrong, 1860 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:02,920 Speaker 1: offens blind is long.

That's Will Hernandez, the newest member of the 1890 01:32:26,880 --> 01:32:30,639 Speaker 1: New York Football Giants. Guard Out of you tep in folks, 1891 01:32:30,640 --> 01:32:31,920 Speaker 1: if you don't know what he was talking about. At 1892 01:32:31,920 --> 01:32:35,120 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, he wore one of those old school 1893 01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:38,639 Speaker 1: neck rolls and if you go back to like Carl 1894 01:32:38,680 --> 01:32:41,120 Speaker 1: Banks in the eighties used to wear the big neck 1895 01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 1: roll and it just makes you look so intimidating and 1896 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:48,840 Speaker 1: it's funny. And I didn't I didn't realize he didn't 1897 01:32:48,880 --> 01:32:55,480 Speaker 1: wear that when he was but it's funny and he understood. 1898 01:32:55,479 --> 01:32:58,360 Speaker 1: And we talked about the Senior Bowl being important for 1899 01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:00,320 Speaker 1: small school guys, and he gave the end there. He 1900 01:33:00,400 --> 01:33:03,599 Speaker 1: knows that and he stood out and that's why, well 1901 01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:05,759 Speaker 1: it's not that's why the Giants watched him on tape anyway, 1902 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:07,640 Speaker 1: but it's something that I think kind of put the 1903 01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:09,920 Speaker 1: spotlight on him a little bit. Being one of the 1904 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:13,960 Speaker 1: most dominant players against players that went to USC and 1905 01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:17,760 Speaker 1: Ohio state Power Conference schools, and he was at there 1906 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 1: tossing these guys around from a team that didn't win 1907 01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:23,120 Speaker 1: a game last year at Utah, and he showed up 1908 01:33:23,280 --> 01:33:25,519 Speaker 1: and he impressed a lot of people. Check the boxes, 1909 01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:29,320 Speaker 1: you know, you check the boxes. Clean, medical, terrific player, 1910 01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:34,559 Speaker 1: terrific attitude, good teammate. I mean, it's a really really 1911 01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 1: terrific value and need pick for Dave Gettleman. And now 1912 01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:41,639 Speaker 1: they move on and look to the two picks they'll 1913 01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 1: have in the th round. Look, he was just a 1914 01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:45,559 Speaker 1: three star recruit. He came as a defensive tackle, moved 1915 01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:47,960 Speaker 1: to the offensive tackle. And the answer that I loved 1916 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 1: the most, and I wasn't even fishing for the answer. 1917 01:33:50,360 --> 01:33:54,559 Speaker 1: He just gave it his love and passion for the game. 1918 01:33:54,720 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 1: Or you could hear it because the offensive line, you're 1919 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:01,040 Speaker 1: not getting bouquets throwing at you. You're not a glamor guy. 1920 01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:05,200 Speaker 1: It's something that you make other people look good. And 1921 01:34:05,240 --> 01:34:07,400 Speaker 1: in order to do that every day and take the 1922 01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:11,200 Speaker 1: beating and offensive lineman does you gotta love it? That 1923 01:34:11,320 --> 01:34:13,599 Speaker 1: kid just based on how he signed on the phone 1924 01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:15,000 Speaker 1: with us, and because it might be the best day 1925 01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:16,559 Speaker 1: of his life he just got drafted. I expect him 1926 01:34:16,560 --> 01:34:20,640 Speaker 1: to be happy. But boy, he loves football, and he 1927 01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:22,960 Speaker 1: made sure that he let us know that he loves football. 1928 01:34:23,040 --> 01:34:25,920 Speaker 1: He is like a buzz saw. He takes trees down 1929 01:34:26,080 --> 01:34:29,599 Speaker 1: and flattens him. Folks, if you haven't gotten a chance 1930 01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:32,360 Speaker 1: to see him play, and I'm sure you saw some 1931 01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 1: of the highlights during the draft shows, please get a 1932 01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:39,560 Speaker 1: look at at his play online number seventy six offensive 1933 01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:42,719 Speaker 1: lineman left guard for you tip get a look online. 1934 01:34:42,840 --> 01:34:46,559 Speaker 1: Call up that video, check out the highlights.

If you were this team and you 1957 01:35:58,640 --> 01:36:02,720 Speaker 1: added I say, Kwan Barkley into that backfield, the versatile 1958 01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:05,679 Speaker 1: offensive weapon that he is, and a guy like Will 1959 01:36:05,760 --> 01:36:10,960 Speaker 1: Hernandez who brings such beef to the trenches. Uh, what 1960 01:36:10,960 --> 01:36:14,000 Speaker 1: what kind of mentality? What kind of style of offense 1961 01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:16,720 Speaker 1: would you like to implement? I mean it seems to 1962 01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:19,240 Speaker 1: me this is these are the kinds of additions that 1963 01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,000 Speaker 1: will help the Giants control tempo and impose their will 1964 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:25,439 Speaker 1: on the opposition. UM. I mean this is the kind 1965 01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:27,479 Speaker 1: of team I kind of had the way we was 1966 01:36:27,680 --> 01:36:30,840 Speaker 1: coaching in the when I was coaching in Boston. UM, 1967 01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:34,000 Speaker 1: we're a physical team. So a team that he's putting 1968 01:36:34,040 --> 01:36:37,200 Speaker 1: together that I see kind of what I'd like is 1969 01:36:37,640 --> 01:36:41,160 Speaker 1: no matter you know what we're trying to do, the 1970 01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:44,280 Speaker 1: question is can you stop us. When I was coaching 1971 01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:48,760 Speaker 1: and we would have scrimmages and um in August, I 1972 01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:52,240 Speaker 1: would actually walk along the line of scrimmage by my 1973 01:36:52,240 --> 01:36:54,720 Speaker 1: team was in the huddle and I would tell I 1974 01:36:54,720 --> 01:36:57,000 Speaker 1: would whisper to the other team. Their coach said, no, 1975 01:36:57,479 --> 01:36:59,720 Speaker 1: I will whisper to the other team what our play 1976 01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:05,240 Speaker 1: well us beautiful. I wanted this absolutely beautiful. I wanted 1977 01:37:05,280 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 1: to see if my team can be physical with a 1978 01:37:08,479 --> 01:37:11,679 Speaker 1: team that knew what we wanted to do. How would 1979 01:37:11,680 --> 01:37:14,160 Speaker 1: we react if they knew what we were doing, if 1980 01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:18,000 Speaker 1: they can jump that gap before we get there? And 1981 01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:20,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to see how those kids react to that 1982 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:22,599 Speaker 1: kind of stuff. And I you know, I never told 1983 01:37:22,640 --> 01:37:25,920 Speaker 1: the kids until the season started that I did that 1984 01:37:26,040 --> 01:37:28,920 Speaker 1: to them. And I made sure they played with one 1985 01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:32,360 Speaker 1: hand tied behind their back until we got into the 1986 01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:36,280 Speaker 1: last couple of simats before our season open. Then I 1987 01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 1: wanted to really see what we were when I untied 1988 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 1: those hands and allowed them to play. And that's how 1989 01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:45,519 Speaker 1: we went into the season very physical. He sees building 1990 01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:48,880 Speaker 1: a physical team someone like Barkley. And what we ran 1991 01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: was a motion offense. Um that's what I called it 1992 01:37:52,160 --> 01:37:54,600 Speaker 1: because what happens when we was playing, A lot of 1993 01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:59,200 Speaker 1: teams don't recognize when kids are moving around and when 1994 01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 1: they go in most so they never knew who was 1995 01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:03,960 Speaker 1: in motion. And the kid liked Barkley. What I could do. 1996 01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:05,720 Speaker 1: I could put him in the backfield and I can 1997 01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:08,080 Speaker 1: hurt him. And I had one like that he played with. 1998 01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:11,320 Speaker 1: Uh he played with Victor Cruz at you mask named 1999 01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:15,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan Hernandez. You should look at this. I know of him. 2000 01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:19,120 Speaker 1: I told you about him, and I coached him, and um, 2001 01:38:19,120 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 1: I actually was the first one to put him in 2002 01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:24,719 Speaker 1: the backfield and uh he I used to utilize them 2003 01:38:24,760 --> 01:38:27,599 Speaker 1: in a way that Barkley could be utilized, put them 2004 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:30,080 Speaker 1: in motion where they thought we had him in the backfield. 2005 01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:32,080 Speaker 1: A lot of times the defense couldn't have just that 2006 01:38:32,160 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 1: they didn't know what we had going on at the time. 2007 01:38:35,479 --> 01:38:37,439 Speaker 1: So a lot of times we did a lot with 2008 01:38:37,479 --> 01:38:40,360 Speaker 1: those kind of players. And uh, it's a great pick. 2009 01:38:40,920 --> 01:38:43,760 Speaker 1: I mentioned that to you before the free agency. I 2010 01:38:43,840 --> 01:38:46,160 Speaker 1: always went for Barkley a lot of people say were 2011 01:38:46,320 --> 01:38:49,280 Speaker 1: their offensive line. I wasn't talking about the officer line 2012 01:38:49,280 --> 01:38:52,519 Speaker 1: he had last year. If he the office line in 2013 01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:56,360 Speaker 1: free agency and then the draft, it all justified the 2014 01:38:56,400 --> 01:39:01,120 Speaker 1: pick of Barkley, and that's what exactly he is. I'm 2015 01:39:01,160 --> 01:39:04,519 Speaker 1: so proud of them. Set me here. I am so 2016 01:39:04,640 --> 01:39:09,000 Speaker 1: proud of this organization, Todd.

At the Draft, some 2024 01:39:29,120 --> 01:39:31,800 Speaker 1: picks went down since we last spoke. I think the 2025 01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:33,519 Speaker 1: last one I gave you was the carry and Johnson 2026 01:39:33,520 --> 01:39:36,080 Speaker 1: picked to the Lions. That was at forty three overall, 2027 01:39:36,120 --> 01:39:38,759 Speaker 1: eleventh pick in the second round. Since then, the twelve 2028 01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:41,000 Speaker 1: in the second round, the forty nine are selected. Dante 2029 01:39:41,160 --> 01:39:44,479 Speaker 1: Pettis the wide receiver of Washington. We even talked much 2030 01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:47,360 Speaker 1: about and Paul this he's been hurt through this draft. Process, 2031 01:39:47,680 --> 01:39:51,120 Speaker 1: but good slot receiver, good production this year Joshua Jackson 2032 01:39:52,640 --> 01:39:55,480 Speaker 1: and he went to the forty Niners. Joshua Jackson, cornerback 2033 01:39:55,520 --> 01:39:58,240 Speaker 1: at a Green Bay. That's a nice pick for the 2034 01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:02,920 Speaker 1: Packers at forty fifth in the draft overall, uh in 2035 01:40:02,960 --> 01:40:05,960 Speaker 1: that round and boy, they have a new look secondary Paul. 2036 01:40:06,040 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 1: They had Gyr Alexander and round one an excellent cornatic 2037 01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:13,679 Speaker 1: and they have Joshua Jackson of Iowa. Those are two 2038 01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:17,560 Speaker 1: good football players. So you think the Packers trying to 2039 01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:20,240 Speaker 1: rebuild their defense a little bit. There it is, and 2040 01:40:20,280 --> 01:40:25,360 Speaker 1: the Chiefs selected Brelan Speaks, defensive tackle out of Mississippi. 2041 01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:28,000 Speaker 1: So um, that's kind of where we stand right now 2042 01:40:28,320 --> 01:40:32,400 Speaker 1: with Arizona at forty seven, who just selected Christian Kirk 2043 01:40:32,720 --> 01:40:34,800 Speaker 1: wide receiver out of Texas A and M. So a 2044 01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:37,880 Speaker 1: little bit of a mini run on wide receivers here. 2045 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:41,800 Speaker 1: We've had Courtland Sutton, Dante Pettis, and then Christian Kirk 2046 01:40:41,880 --> 01:40:44,519 Speaker 1: the slot receiver out of Texas slot receiver out of 2047 01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:46,760 Speaker 1: Texas A and M going in the last eight or 2048 01:40:46,800 --> 01:40:49,240 Speaker 1: so picks. And then we won more by the way, 2049 01:40:49,640 --> 01:40:53,920 Speaker 1: channing the Wote Sue who was a potential outside linebacker 2050 01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:56,479 Speaker 1: pass rusher that I thought could have been a target 2051 01:40:56,520 --> 01:41:00,160 Speaker 1: for the Giants, us to go to the sand go 2052 01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:02,320 Speaker 1: to them. I did it, go to the Los Angeles 2053 01:41:02,439 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 1: Chargers in the second round of the draft. I'm still 2054 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:08,519 Speaker 1: doing that, that's all right. Yeah, he was definitely in 2055 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:11,880 Speaker 1: the cluster coming out of USC and uh good hitter, 2056 01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:16,000 Speaker 1: good tackler, gets to the after the quarterback, like a 2057 01:41:16,080 --> 01:41:18,120 Speaker 1: lot of things that he did. Even though his stats 2058 01:41:18,160 --> 01:41:20,599 Speaker 1: were not gaudy, he was the kind of player who 2059 01:41:20,760 --> 01:41:23,240 Speaker 1: just made his presence felt on the field. I liked 2060 01:41:23,320 --> 01:41:25,320 Speaker 1: him a lot, smart player too, from what you could tell. 2061 01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:27,280 Speaker 1: He was also at the Senior Bowl by the way. Yes, yeah, 2062 01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:28,960 Speaker 1: you got to see him up close. I talked to 2063 01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:31,679 Speaker 1: him for about five minutes actually, because yeah, no question 2064 01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,479 Speaker 1: and yeah, I kind of thought early third round would 2065 01:41:34,520 --> 01:41:36,840 Speaker 1: be the the area for him, and he was on 2066 01:41:36,920 --> 01:41:39,400 Speaker 1: my radar for the cluster for the Giants there. But 2067 01:41:39,800 --> 01:41:42,479 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen now. Lorenzo Karna from Georgia still 2068 01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:44,920 Speaker 1: there though still on the board. We have a trade here. 2069 01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,639 Speaker 1: The Eagles have moved up to the forty ninth pick, 2070 01:41:47,680 --> 01:41:50,240 Speaker 1: which has already changed hands I think three times before 2071 01:41:50,360 --> 01:41:53,120 Speaker 1: this trade so now it belongs to the Eagles, who 2072 01:41:53,160 --> 01:41:57,680 Speaker 1: had traded down from the thirty second pick. Remember there 2073 01:41:57,760 --> 01:41:59,439 Speaker 1: was short a couple of picks in this draft because 2074 01:41:59,479 --> 01:42:03,800 Speaker 1: of past trades. They're trying to recoup some of those picks. 2075 01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:05,400 Speaker 1: All right, we got two more calls before we want 2076 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:07,040 Speaker 1: to get to James frankl the head goes to Penn 2077 01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:09,960 Speaker 1: State to give us some insight on sa Kwon Barkley. 2078 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:13,080 Speaker 1: Let's go to Doug in Rochester. He's up next. Hey Doug, 2079 01:42:14,320 --> 01:42:17,680 Speaker 1: are you guys doing what's up about? Can you hear 2080 01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:22,519 Speaker 1: me loud? And Claire kill John? And uh good? You 2081 01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:25,200 Speaker 1: gotta do a terrific job. You want to talk about 2082 01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:27,599 Speaker 1: your col Barker, you're talking about the Giants last year 2083 01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:31,280 Speaker 1: and I'll sing rotch. The Giants miss on third ones. 2084 01:42:31,479 --> 01:42:35,160 Speaker 1: They had second and six and they something to kick 2085 01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:37,479 Speaker 1: Colin was horrible and they couldn't even get the first 2086 01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: out there on the guard line a couple of times, 2087 01:42:40,320 --> 01:42:43,400 Speaker 1: and you couldn't get into Pombo. So well, I think 2088 01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:46,320 Speaker 1: you cap Barkin is gonna do. He's a change mover there. 2089 01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:48,280 Speaker 1: You can said that it keeps your defense off and 2090 01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:50,720 Speaker 1: kill Pat Sherman said he's gonna keep the defense off 2091 01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 1: the field kind of position. I think Paul you said 2092 01:42:53,439 --> 01:42:56,200 Speaker 1: something about that, and you got the kid the great 2093 01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:58,920 Speaker 1: time possession, and that's what he's gonna do for the Giant. 2094 01:42:59,360 --> 01:43:02,720 Speaker 1: He's gonna be same movie. That's that's keep deferens. He 2095 01:43:03,040 --> 01:43:05,960 Speaker 1: really had time picked down the row last year and 2096 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,800 Speaker 1: he's gonna make a difference in that. And that's what 2097 01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:12,519 Speaker 1: that day so well, think about any short yardage or 2098 01:43:12,640 --> 01:43:15,880 Speaker 1: for that matter, goal line attack when you can run 2099 01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:22,160 Speaker 1: behind Will Hernandez. I mean, that's a very imposing set 2100 01:43:22,439 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 1: that you can throw at a defense. That's right following 2101 01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:32,960 Speaker 1: a lot of those times, he an't sad looking at it, 2102 01:43:33,040 --> 01:43:36,240 Speaker 1: but now he's there is a game changer. And I'm 2103 01:43:36,280 --> 01:43:39,800 Speaker 1: gonna leave at this question to you, John and fall Um. 2104 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:42,559 Speaker 1: Has never been a team that went through the thirteen 2105 01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:44,880 Speaker 1: or some kind of record like that with the Super 2106 01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:48,559 Speaker 1: Bowl wanted the next year. Well, Jacksonville had just won 2107 01:43:48,680 --> 01:43:51,320 Speaker 1: three games two years ago and then advanced far into 2108 01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:54,559 Speaker 1: the playoffs this season. I think that may have been 2109 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:58,120 Speaker 1: the biggest turnaround. I don't know what for Super Bowl winners, 2110 01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:01,200 Speaker 1: what's the worst record the year, but dark that it's 2111 01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:04,479 Speaker 1: not three and thirteen. I don't know what it is. Yeah, 2112 01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:07,360 Speaker 1: I would imagine it's six or seven. Maybe. Yeah, I've 2113 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:11,200 Speaker 1: never researched that status hesitate to comment on it. But again, 2114 01:44:11,479 --> 01:44:14,479 Speaker 1: if you're just looking for the possibilities, the Jaguars showed 2115 01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:18,479 Speaker 1: you what is possible by going from three wins to 2116 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:21,080 Speaker 1: a couple of playoff rounds, and and if that just 2117 01:44:21,120 --> 01:44:25,040 Speaker 1: happened this year, so obviously it's possible. Thank you, Doug, 2118 01:44:30,920 --> 01:44:34,360 Speaker 1: I mean honestly, Doug. And and again thanks, I think 2119 01:44:34,920 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 1: I think you're shocked when any team wins the Super Bowl. 2120 01:44:38,200 --> 01:44:39,720 Speaker 1: There's this thirty two of them and only one can 2121 01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:42,360 Speaker 1: win it. I'm serious, Like, even if you look at 2122 01:44:42,360 --> 01:44:44,519 Speaker 1: the odds on these things, even the team that is 2123 01:44:44,560 --> 01:44:47,120 Speaker 1: the best odds, there's still crumby odds to win the 2124 01:44:47,160 --> 01:44:49,040 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It's just a really tough thing to do. 2125 01:44:49,120 --> 01:44:53,240 Speaker 1: It's really, really hard. I appreciate his enthusiasm. The final 2126 01:44:53,320 --> 01:44:56,280 Speaker 1: fifty three hasn't even been announced yet, so I'm not 2127 01:44:56,360 --> 01:44:59,559 Speaker 1: gonna jump the gun at all. I will simply say 2128 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:02,479 Speaker 1: to you, the Giants are a better team today than 2129 01:45:02,520 --> 01:45:04,200 Speaker 1: they were at the end of last season. I don't 2130 01:45:04,200 --> 01:45:06,000 Speaker 1: think there's any doubt about there a lot of parody 2131 01:45:06,000 --> 01:45:09,320 Speaker 1: in the league. Anything can happen. So, guys, Giant's gonna 2132 01:45:09,320 --> 01:45:11,040 Speaker 1: make a playoff un next year. And once you're in 2133 01:45:11,040 --> 01:45:15,639 Speaker 1: the playoffs, anything had happened. Ben and Dayton, He's up next. 2134 01:45:15,640 --> 01:45:19,080 Speaker 1: What's up? Ben? Hey, how's it going well? First thing 2135 01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: I have to say is, oh my god, I get 2136 01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 1: to be on the air with you, guys, my two 2137 01:45:24,360 --> 01:45:27,880 Speaker 1: favorite from Big Blue. You're making me blush. Ben, You're 2138 01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:32,559 Speaker 1: very kind. Thank you for calling. I mean, I mean, John, 2139 01:45:32,600 --> 01:45:38,800 Speaker 1: I love you, I adore you. Okay, Lancey doesn't like that. 2140 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:41,920 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, I hope you saved some 2141 01:45:42,000 --> 01:45:45,880 Speaker 1: of that for Jeff Eagles. I understand, Lanz. Jeff is 2142 01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:50,759 Speaker 1: my favorite as far as when it's paired with John, 2143 01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:55,680 Speaker 1: with doing you know who you know who played with 2144 01:45:55,760 --> 01:46:00,680 Speaker 1: Jeff Eagles. That's a fun game game. Thank you. But 2145 01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:05,559 Speaker 1: PAULI love you. You love for the trenches. And I'm 2146 01:46:05,600 --> 01:46:09,960 Speaker 1: an old school guy. I mean, I'm forty, but I 2147 01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:14,280 Speaker 1: remember growing up in the era of true Giants football, 2148 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:19,479 Speaker 1: when they was just smack mouth. We destroyed them. You know. 2149 01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:23,840 Speaker 1: I missed the power back, I miss having the offensive 2150 01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:28,240 Speaker 1: bog Molly's and I love the Wilhern and hiss rate 2151 01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:34,240 Speaker 1: or pick. I love the pick of Barklay. Now we 2152 01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:39,840 Speaker 1: gotta get some some linebackers. That's because that's what we're missing. Yeah, 2153 01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 1: there's no doubt that would be one of the thin 2154 01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:44,519 Speaker 1: areas that I think the Giants would like to come 2155 01:46:44,560 --> 01:46:48,479 Speaker 1: away with, hopefully in the third round. But if the 2156 01:46:48,560 --> 01:46:50,439 Speaker 1: value is not there, you know, they're gonna have to 2157 01:46:50,479 --> 01:46:53,679 Speaker 1: wait to understand. I understand. You know, Carter is still 2158 01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:56,200 Speaker 1: on the board, Baker is still on the board. I mean, 2159 01:46:56,280 --> 01:47:00,880 Speaker 1: these these guys are both solid third round values if 2160 01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:03,360 Speaker 1: they're still floating around by the time the Giants get 2161 01:47:03,360 --> 01:47:05,960 Speaker 1: around to pick it again, I know. I mean, I'm 2162 01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:07,880 Speaker 1: parts of the corner because that's what I played in 2163 01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:13,240 Speaker 1: high school. However, I love linebackers ring I grew up 2164 01:47:13,400 --> 01:47:16,080 Speaker 1: with Lawrence Teleby in my adult I mean, come on, 2165 01:47:17,240 --> 01:47:20,200 Speaker 1: I get you. Well, you'll like you'll like, You'll like 2166 01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,639 Speaker 1: the guy they picked up by named alec Ogul Tree 2167 01:47:22,720 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 1: from the Rams. Trust me, he's a very active player, 2168 01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:29,760 Speaker 1: very active play, and I thought it was a nice, 2169 01:47:30,080 --> 01:47:36,000 Speaker 1: nice step in the right direction. I but I want more, Okay, 2170 01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:40,320 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that, you know, I just want more. Um, 2171 01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:45,559 Speaker 1: I want to have solidity in our linebacking corps, which 2172 01:47:45,600 --> 01:47:50,120 Speaker 1: we haven't had and which feels like ten years since 2173 01:47:50,160 --> 01:47:56,679 Speaker 1: and since a p had that unfortunate injury, we haven't 2174 01:47:56,720 --> 01:48:02,640 Speaker 1: had a real solid linebacker in my opinion, No, no, 2175 01:48:02,800 --> 01:48:05,479 Speaker 1: I and I understand that it's unfortunate that John Beason 2176 01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:07,439 Speaker 1: had so many intervieties by the time he got to 2177 01:48:07,479 --> 01:48:10,200 Speaker 1: the Giants, because he could have been a really good player. 2178 01:48:10,240 --> 01:48:18,200 Speaker 1: For that he's great, but availability on the field dictates 2179 01:48:18,560 --> 01:48:21,160 Speaker 1: he's not up to park. Now you have Alacobo Tree, though, 2180 01:48:21,200 --> 01:48:23,639 Speaker 1: and he plays games man. He's on the field, he 2181 01:48:23,760 --> 01:48:25,960 Speaker 1: and he gets to the ball and he hits and 2182 01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:29,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna it's gonna be when he was on the field, 2183 01:48:29,200 --> 01:48:32,000 Speaker 1: but his availability on the field was so limited and 2184 01:48:32,120 --> 01:48:35,360 Speaker 1: no doubt. All right, Ben, thank you, buddy, hurt me 2185 01:48:35,920 --> 01:48:37,960 Speaker 1: appreciate the call, Ben, Thank you. The Eagles, by the way, 2186 01:48:38,000 --> 01:48:40,160 Speaker 1: trade up in front of the Dallas Cowboys to take 2187 01:48:40,200 --> 01:48:43,519 Speaker 1: a tight end with Jason went announcing his retirement that 2188 01:48:43,560 --> 01:48:46,439 Speaker 1: there was something you think tight end, it's a Dakota 2189 01:48:46,520 --> 01:48:48,360 Speaker 1: State play him with Zach Arts when he got you 2190 01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:50,519 Speaker 1: got a pretty good tight end combination, by the way, 2191 01:48:50,760 --> 01:48:52,320 Speaker 1: and now the Cowboys are on the clock. We'll give 2192 01:48:52,360 --> 01:48:54,320 Speaker 1: you that pick before we get probably by the way 2193 01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:59,720 Speaker 1: up there with the commissioner. Great great defensive tackle, early seventies. Yes, 2194 01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:01,760 Speaker 1: she get drafted in late sixties. Wasn't just early said, 2195 01:49:01,760 --> 01:49:04,120 Speaker 1: oh he was, he was there, believe in the late sixties. 2196 01:49:04,160 --> 01:49:07,400 Speaker 1: It's a Hall of famer. Yes, excellent, excellent defensive lineman. 2197 01:49:07,400 --> 01:49:09,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna be up there with his family making the 2198 01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:11,559 Speaker 1: pick there well of that Cowboys pick before we go 2199 01:49:11,600 --> 01:49:14,080 Speaker 1: to the interview with James Franklin, the Penn State head coach. 2200 01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:15,719 Speaker 1: I got to spend some time with him this morning. 2201 01:49:15,880 --> 01:49:17,760 Speaker 1: We talked about se Kwon Barkley. But we want to 2202 01:49:17,760 --> 01:49:19,639 Speaker 1: get the division rivals. We want to get this pick 2203 01:49:19,680 --> 01:49:23,360 Speaker 1: in absolutely before we get to the interview end. The 2204 01:49:23,360 --> 01:49:25,920 Speaker 1: Eagles just took Dallas Goder, tight end at the South 2205 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:27,519 Speaker 1: Dakota State. He's really one of the guys I think 2206 01:49:27,520 --> 01:49:29,320 Speaker 1: could be a two way tight end. Actually in this 2207 01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:31,320 Speaker 1: in this group, there's really not many of them. Most 2208 01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:34,080 Speaker 1: of them are receiving type tight ends. Like you've mentioned before. 2209 01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:38,680 Speaker 1: He's a guy didn't run the forty in the postseason process, 2210 01:49:38,920 --> 01:49:40,720 Speaker 1: which got people a little bit nervous. You won their 2211 01:49:40,760 --> 01:49:42,360 Speaker 1: health letic. He is out of a small school in 2212 01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:45,240 Speaker 1: South Dakota State, but they think he could be a 2213 01:49:45,280 --> 01:49:48,559 Speaker 1: pretty good two way tight end, you know. And I'm 2214 01:49:48,600 --> 01:49:51,240 Speaker 1: not trying to to to make anything out of it 2215 01:49:51,280 --> 01:49:53,400 Speaker 1: other than to say, whence it's still coming back off 2216 01:49:53,400 --> 01:49:57,200 Speaker 1: a significant injury, and let's see, you know, how quickly 2217 01:49:57,200 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 1: he's able to rehab and get back to a percent. 2218 01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:05,439 Speaker 1: The Cowboy Go offensive line pall and Williams out of Texas. Wow. 2219 01:50:06,080 --> 01:50:08,920 Speaker 1: Not a wide receiver there, which I think would surprise 2220 01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:12,439 Speaker 1: a lot of people. And this is an offensive line 2221 01:50:12,479 --> 01:50:14,800 Speaker 1: that for the last several years has been graded out 2222 01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:17,400 Speaker 1: as one of the better ones in the National Football League. 2223 01:50:17,560 --> 01:50:19,960 Speaker 1: And now they decide to go out and get a 2224 01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:23,160 Speaker 1: left tackle who I don't know if he's gonna tackle 2225 01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:24,559 Speaker 1: a guard for them? What's gonna do. He's not gonna 2226 01:50:24,560 --> 01:50:26,320 Speaker 1: play a left tackle. They got Tyron Smith out there 2227 01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:28,280 Speaker 1: for sure. Well that's the that's the trick. Remember they 2228 01:50:28,320 --> 01:50:31,639 Speaker 1: signed Cameron Fleming to the offensive from the Patriots. But 2229 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:35,160 Speaker 1: I would I think this signals they're either gonna move 2230 01:50:35,200 --> 01:50:38,000 Speaker 1: Lao Collins inside the guard or are they gonna move 2231 01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:40,120 Speaker 1: Connor Williams inside the guard. I haven't been real happy 2232 01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:43,400 Speaker 1: with Leo Collins lately. Well is he a tackle or guard? 2233 01:50:43,479 --> 01:50:46,040 Speaker 1: Do they know? Does anybody know? And I think they'll 2234 01:50:46,160 --> 01:50:48,240 Speaker 1: figure out if they want Williams a tackle and move 2235 01:50:48,320 --> 01:50:51,120 Speaker 1: Collins to guard or or vice versas. So Cowboys trying 2236 01:50:51,120 --> 01:50:53,800 Speaker 1: to add to a strength. Boy, I'll tell you what, 2237 01:50:53,880 --> 01:50:56,920 Speaker 1: this is gonna be a division that's becoming more and 2238 01:50:56,960 --> 01:51:00,800 Speaker 1: more old school black and blue NFC East Football and 2239 01:51:00,840 --> 01:51:03,599 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun to watch and the ice John 2240 01:51:03,600 --> 01:51:05,320 Speaker 1: And one of the guys that's gonna contribute to that 2241 01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:07,839 Speaker 1: black and blue football is sa Kwon Barkley, the Giants 2242 01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,120 Speaker 1: top running back pack in the draft this year. Went 2243 01:51:11,160 --> 01:51:13,120 Speaker 1: to Penn State. His his coat. His head coach was 2244 01:51:13,200 --> 01:51:15,160 Speaker 1: James Franklin, and I had a chance to talk to 2245 01:51:15,240 --> 01:51:18,920 Speaker 1: him earlier today. And now we're joined by the head 2246 01:51:18,920 --> 01:51:21,759 Speaker 1: coach of the Penn State, Nitney Lyons, James Franklin. James 2247 01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:25,280 Speaker 1: was in Dallas yesterday with st Kwon Barkley. He had 2248 01:51:25,320 --> 01:51:27,519 Speaker 1: a great interview on NFL Network earlier in the day 2249 01:51:27,560 --> 01:51:29,880 Speaker 1: as well. James, you got John Schmilk here and he's Rutherford, 2250 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:36,120 Speaker 1: New Jersey. How are you today? Hey? We appreciate you 2251 01:51:36,160 --> 01:51:38,439 Speaker 1: coming on to talk about the Giants second overall pick 2252 01:51:38,439 --> 01:51:42,719 Speaker 1: in the draft, and Sa Kwon Barkley obviously an impact player. 2253 01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:44,799 Speaker 1: And I think we talked to a lot of scouts 2254 01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:46,559 Speaker 1: over the course of this show in the last month, 2255 01:51:46,600 --> 01:51:49,679 Speaker 1: and the way Dan Shanko, a former NFL scout described 2256 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:54,200 Speaker 1: him to me was he's a weapon. Why do you 2257 01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:57,280 Speaker 1: think Sa Kwon Barkley on offense and even on special 2258 01:51:57,280 --> 01:52:01,360 Speaker 1: teams is such a weapon. Well, the only person that's 2259 01:52:01,400 --> 01:52:04,759 Speaker 1: happier than James Franklin right now is is Eli Manning. 2260 01:52:05,160 --> 01:52:07,680 Speaker 1: Is uh. He got a guy that's going to be 2261 01:52:07,720 --> 01:52:10,920 Speaker 1: a tremendous teammate. He's gonna be unbelievable in the locker room. 2262 01:52:10,960 --> 01:52:13,720 Speaker 1: But I think back to your point, there is you know, 2263 01:52:13,800 --> 01:52:16,000 Speaker 1: in today's day and age, the way the way you 2264 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:17,920 Speaker 1: use a running back is not just line them up 2265 01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:20,360 Speaker 1: in the iron, hand him the ball thirty times the game. 2266 01:52:20,439 --> 01:52:23,479 Speaker 1: It's it's using him as a runner, it's using him 2267 01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:26,439 Speaker 1: out of the backfield as as a as a receiver, 2268 01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:29,120 Speaker 1: free releasing him. It's lining him up in the slot 2269 01:52:29,120 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 1: and creating matchups. And he can do all those things. 2270 01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:35,200 Speaker 1: You know, He's also been a dynamic kickoff return guy. 2271 01:52:35,920 --> 01:52:38,200 Speaker 1: But he's a guy that that understands, you know, the 2272 01:52:38,240 --> 01:52:40,120 Speaker 1: more things that he can do to bring value to 2273 01:52:40,120 --> 01:52:43,880 Speaker 1: the organization than um, you know, the bigger impact he's 2274 01:52:43,920 --> 01:52:45,360 Speaker 1: going to have. And that's how we used him at 2275 01:52:45,400 --> 01:52:49,479 Speaker 1: Penn State. So he's smart, he's thoughtful, he's caring, he's 2276 01:52:49,479 --> 01:52:53,080 Speaker 1: going unbelievable teammates have great in the community. He's gonna 2277 01:52:53,120 --> 01:52:54,800 Speaker 1: make your locker room better to day steps in it. 2278 01:52:55,120 --> 01:52:57,320 Speaker 1: All Right, Well, let's let's take his skills one by one. 2279 01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:59,160 Speaker 1: Let's start at the running game before we get back 2280 01:52:59,160 --> 01:53:01,479 Speaker 1: to to the path asking attack. I thought you had 2281 01:53:01,479 --> 01:53:05,160 Speaker 1: an interesting quote yesterday on NFL Network because I watched 2282 01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:07,120 Speaker 1: a lot of his twenty seventeen film and he ran 2283 01:53:07,200 --> 01:53:09,160 Speaker 1: mostly out of the shotgun. But you talked on NFL 2284 01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:11,880 Speaker 1: Network about how when he first got there, used him 2285 01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:14,280 Speaker 1: a lot out of the I formation. So I guess 2286 01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:17,040 Speaker 1: my question is how versatile is he in terms of scheme, 2287 01:53:17,320 --> 01:53:19,559 Speaker 1: in terms of how you use him as a back 2288 01:53:19,600 --> 01:53:23,839 Speaker 1: out of the gun in power zone power? How versatile 2289 01:53:23,920 --> 01:53:25,960 Speaker 1: is he in terms of his running style and adapting 2290 01:53:26,000 --> 01:53:28,880 Speaker 1: to what the giants might want to do. Well, you know, 2291 01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:31,280 Speaker 1: I was, I was with the Green Bay Packers. So 2292 01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:33,840 Speaker 1: I have a West Coast offensive background. That was the 2293 01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:37,000 Speaker 1: offense I ran when I was the offensive coordinator at 2294 01:53:37,040 --> 01:53:41,200 Speaker 1: Maryland and at Kansas State and then at Vanderbilt as well, 2295 01:53:41,240 --> 01:53:42,880 Speaker 1: and then when we first got to Defense State. So 2296 01:53:42,920 --> 01:53:45,720 Speaker 1: he started his career all you know, running a pro 2297 01:53:45,840 --> 01:53:50,479 Speaker 1: style West Coast offense, terminology, protections, all of it. You know, 2298 01:53:50,479 --> 01:53:53,680 Speaker 1: it's a true freshman. He lines up in the backfield 2299 01:53:53,760 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 1: behind a quarterback under center, and Russia has far almost 2300 01:53:56,560 --> 01:53:58,920 Speaker 1: two hundred yards against Ohio State the year they won 2301 01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:02,240 Speaker 1: the national championship. So he's gonna he's gonna be a 2302 01:54:02,240 --> 01:54:03,960 Speaker 1: guy that's gonna be able to learn the system, and 2303 01:54:03,960 --> 01:54:07,439 Speaker 1: he's gonna understand concepts, um, and you're gonna be able 2304 01:54:07,439 --> 01:54:09,439 Speaker 1: to use him in so many different ways. And that 2305 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:12,840 Speaker 1: that's why he's valuable. Um. You know, There's there's been 2306 01:54:12,840 --> 01:54:14,680 Speaker 1: backs that have been big and strong, and there's been 2307 01:54:14,720 --> 01:54:17,200 Speaker 1: backs that have been quick and fast. There's been backs 2308 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:19,920 Speaker 1: that are great receivers. He's a guy that really has 2309 01:54:19,920 --> 01:54:22,760 Speaker 1: got to check mark in all of those Fox. Yeah, 2310 01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:25,800 Speaker 1: it's funny. Dave Gentleman said yesterday, I think the quote 2311 01:54:25,840 --> 01:54:29,000 Speaker 1: that hit me the most. He said, athletically he has 2312 01:54:29,040 --> 01:54:31,280 Speaker 1: been touched by the hand of God. He has the 2313 01:54:31,560 --> 01:54:35,240 Speaker 1: quick feet of a small guy, but he's two thirty pounds, 2314 01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:38,120 Speaker 1: which is a combination you don't very often see. How 2315 01:54:38,160 --> 01:54:42,800 Speaker 1: does that combination in terms of quickness and size manifested 2316 01:54:43,120 --> 01:54:46,640 Speaker 1: on the football field and the way he carries the football? Well, 2317 01:54:46,720 --> 01:54:48,280 Speaker 1: I think the thing, you know, I've been doing this 2318 01:54:48,360 --> 01:54:51,080 Speaker 1: for twenty four years that I've never really seen anybody 2319 01:54:51,120 --> 01:54:53,640 Speaker 1: like him, and that's including my time in the NFL 2320 01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:56,560 Speaker 1: with the Green Bay Packers. I mean, he's a complete 2321 01:54:56,560 --> 01:54:59,160 Speaker 1: freak show, you know. So you're talking about a guy 2322 01:54:59,240 --> 01:55:01,360 Speaker 1: who can run for power when you need him to 2323 01:55:01,440 --> 01:55:04,560 Speaker 1: on short yardage situations. You know. One of the things 2324 01:55:04,600 --> 01:55:06,480 Speaker 1: that I think he's you know, he's gonna have to, 2325 01:55:06,800 --> 01:55:09,040 Speaker 1: you know, focus on and get better at is he 2326 01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:11,760 Speaker 1: was such a creator for us, you know, and and 2327 01:55:11,880 --> 01:55:14,880 Speaker 1: our line wasn't the strength of our team, you know. 2328 01:55:14,960 --> 01:55:17,360 Speaker 1: So I think in the NFL, you gotta understand, you 2329 01:55:17,440 --> 01:55:19,640 Speaker 1: gotta sometimes you just gotta lower your shoulder and be 2330 01:55:19,680 --> 01:55:22,760 Speaker 1: happy with within the ugly two or three yards and 2331 01:55:22,880 --> 01:55:25,720 Speaker 1: fight for it and stay on schedule. Where he you know, 2332 01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:28,680 Speaker 1: he had a mentality in college every time he touched 2333 01:55:28,680 --> 01:55:30,920 Speaker 1: the ball, he was gonna go for eight. And you know, 2334 01:55:31,680 --> 01:55:33,520 Speaker 1: for us, he did it. He did it a lot, 2335 01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:36,480 Speaker 1: you know, so he had a lot of creativity for us. 2336 01:55:36,480 --> 01:55:38,000 Speaker 1: But I think that's an area that I know he's 2337 01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:40,600 Speaker 1: going to focus on, he's going to grow on, he's 2338 01:55:40,600 --> 01:55:43,760 Speaker 1: gonna grow with. But he just does so many things. Well, 2339 01:55:43,960 --> 01:55:45,920 Speaker 1: that does so many things well, and you're talking about 2340 01:55:45,920 --> 01:55:48,000 Speaker 1: a guy who can run for power, can run for speed, 2341 01:55:48,040 --> 01:55:51,680 Speaker 1: can run for quickness, use them out of the backfield, um, 2342 01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:53,440 Speaker 1: And he takes a lot of pride in being able 2343 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:55,840 Speaker 1: to protect the quarterback as well. And well, I want 2344 01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:58,000 Speaker 1: to get to that now, because as you well know, coach, 2345 01:55:58,320 --> 01:56:00,640 Speaker 1: you can be a great receiver catching the ball, but 2346 01:56:00,680 --> 01:56:02,800 Speaker 1: if you can't pass protect, you're not getting on the 2347 01:56:02,840 --> 01:56:05,440 Speaker 1: field on third downs in the NFL. You know that 2348 01:56:05,840 --> 01:56:09,280 Speaker 1: everyone here knows that in terms of his past protection. 2349 01:56:09,360 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 1: How advanced is he in terms of a recognizing where 2350 01:56:13,240 --> 01:56:15,560 Speaker 1: the blitz is coming from and then be at of 2351 01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:18,120 Speaker 1: course thy pounds being able to take on that blitz 2352 01:56:18,240 --> 01:56:21,800 Speaker 1: and physically handle that defender coming after the quarterback. Well, 2353 01:56:21,840 --> 01:56:24,880 Speaker 1: it's a very similar transition, you know, from high school 2354 01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:27,080 Speaker 1: to college in terms of what I mean is with 2355 01:56:27,280 --> 01:56:29,360 Speaker 1: running backs. That's the area that you know, it is 2356 01:56:29,400 --> 01:56:32,000 Speaker 1: going to determine whether they play early as as as 2357 01:56:32,040 --> 01:56:35,520 Speaker 1: college players as well. So, you know, very similar philosophies. 2358 01:56:35,600 --> 01:56:38,520 Speaker 1: Matt standpoints something that takes great pride, and I mean, 2359 01:56:38,560 --> 01:56:40,880 Speaker 1: the guy can bench whatever you put on the bar. 2360 01:56:41,480 --> 01:56:46,560 Speaker 1: Um plays, plays with great leverage, understands hand placement. Um. 2361 01:56:46,680 --> 01:56:48,839 Speaker 1: And And also you know two years ago, I remember 2362 01:56:48,880 --> 01:56:50,640 Speaker 1: meeting with with say quant at the end of the 2363 01:56:50,720 --> 01:56:52,720 Speaker 1: year and I said, you know, Um, you know the 2364 01:56:52,840 --> 01:56:56,040 Speaker 1: running back that we had seen at Ohio State, Zeke Um. 2365 01:56:56,080 --> 01:56:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, that was the thing that I was impressed 2366 01:56:58,040 --> 01:57:00,720 Speaker 1: when people were talking about him for the draft. It 2367 01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:02,320 Speaker 1: was you know, they're saying he may be one of 2368 01:57:02,360 --> 01:57:05,120 Speaker 1: the best blockers to run a back position to come 2369 01:57:05,120 --> 01:57:08,160 Speaker 1: out and you know ten years uh, And I said, 2370 01:57:08,200 --> 01:57:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, look look at what they're talking about about. 2371 01:57:10,560 --> 01:57:12,800 Speaker 1: You know, this running back at Ohio State and the draft, 2372 01:57:12,840 --> 01:57:14,560 Speaker 1: and this is something that you can be and need 2373 01:57:14,600 --> 01:57:17,160 Speaker 1: to work on. So he's a guy. You tell him 2374 01:57:17,200 --> 01:57:19,680 Speaker 1: something that needs to work on and he tacks it. 2375 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:22,280 Speaker 1: You know, same thing this offseason talking to him about 2376 01:57:22,360 --> 01:57:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, the passing game, Hey, don't run routes with 2377 01:57:24,320 --> 01:57:26,600 Speaker 1: the running backs the summer, run routes with the receivers 2378 01:57:26,680 --> 01:57:31,560 Speaker 1: all summer long. Get comfortable running receiver routes from out wide. Um, 2379 01:57:31,600 --> 01:57:34,160 Speaker 1: and he did it. And UM, you know that's that's 2380 01:57:34,160 --> 01:57:37,120 Speaker 1: where I think he just kind of understands. I think 2381 01:57:37,160 --> 01:57:39,000 Speaker 1: this generation, a lot of these kids like to just 2382 01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:41,000 Speaker 1: go out and work on the things that they're good at. 2383 01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:45,800 Speaker 1: Where Skauten wants to take weaknesses and turn the ministrings. Well, 2384 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:48,040 Speaker 1: you know, coach, and you mentioned his route running, and 2385 01:57:48,040 --> 01:57:49,360 Speaker 1: that's where I want to go next. It was a 2386 01:57:49,360 --> 01:57:52,360 Speaker 1: perfect segue. You know, he had more than fifty catches 2387 01:57:52,440 --> 01:57:54,440 Speaker 1: last year, more than six yards. He had more than 2388 01:57:54,480 --> 01:57:57,640 Speaker 1: a thousand yards receiving in his three years at Penn State. 2389 01:57:57,880 --> 01:57:59,600 Speaker 1: And I think when most people think of running backs 2390 01:57:59,600 --> 01:58:01,040 Speaker 1: out of the bat actually think, oh, you know, he'll 2391 01:58:01,080 --> 01:58:02,400 Speaker 1: dump it off and I'll make a couple of guys 2392 01:58:02,440 --> 01:58:05,040 Speaker 1: miss will gained seven eight yards. But Barkley is a 2393 01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,520 Speaker 1: guy that you can split out wide, he can run 2394 01:58:07,600 --> 01:58:10,440 Speaker 1: slot routes, he can run wheel routes down the field. 2395 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 1: How advanced is he in terms of his route running 2396 01:58:13,360 --> 01:58:16,960 Speaker 1: and being a receiver not just a guy that catches 2397 01:58:17,000 --> 01:58:19,840 Speaker 1: dump bossom the quarterback. Yeah, I think he's got a 2398 01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:21,800 Speaker 1: chance to be a weapon there. And I think you know, 2399 01:58:21,920 --> 01:58:24,480 Speaker 1: you have to look at him that way, UM, in 2400 01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:27,480 Speaker 1: terms of your offensive coordinat or your head coach trying 2401 01:58:27,520 --> 01:58:31,200 Speaker 1: to get him UM in favorable situations and in matchups 2402 01:58:31,240 --> 01:58:34,280 Speaker 1: that cause the defense headaches and stress. You know, whether 2403 01:58:34,360 --> 01:58:37,000 Speaker 1: that you know, wheel routes out of the backfield, whether 2404 01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:39,920 Speaker 1: that's lining them up in the slot and and running 2405 01:58:40,000 --> 01:58:42,040 Speaker 1: vertical stuff with him. We would run you know what 2406 01:58:42,080 --> 01:58:44,440 Speaker 1: we call big box, which is like an inside fade 2407 01:58:44,720 --> 01:58:47,920 Speaker 1: matched up against the linebacker or a safety. UM, whether 2408 01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:50,120 Speaker 1: that's line him up in the slot and running you know, 2409 01:58:50,240 --> 01:58:54,240 Speaker 1: mesh routes, rubbed routes, pick routes, those types of things. UM, 2410 01:58:54,280 --> 01:58:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, where you're able to get him matched up 2411 01:58:56,160 --> 01:58:58,600 Speaker 1: with a mic lineback or um. You know we were 2412 01:58:58,640 --> 01:59:00,520 Speaker 1: able to, you know, put him on the size the 2413 01:59:00,600 --> 01:59:04,040 Speaker 1: number one receiver as well. Determine one type of coverage 2414 01:59:04,080 --> 01:59:06,080 Speaker 1: people are in. Are they in man coverage and they're 2415 01:59:06,080 --> 01:59:08,240 Speaker 1: gonna take the bi lineback round of the box and 2416 01:59:08,240 --> 01:59:10,280 Speaker 1: match up. Are they gonna do it with the corner? Well, 2417 01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:11,680 Speaker 1: then if you do it at the corner, and then 2418 01:59:11,720 --> 01:59:14,240 Speaker 1: the number one receiver is now lined up in the slot. 2419 01:59:14,280 --> 01:59:17,720 Speaker 1: Now he's got a favorable situation. So you know, he's 2420 01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:20,520 Speaker 1: really gonna help um, you know, the Giants in so 2421 01:59:20,520 --> 01:59:22,160 Speaker 1: many ways. He's really gonna help you live in so 2422 01:59:22,200 --> 01:59:25,280 Speaker 1: many ways, because here's a guy that you could be 2423 01:59:25,320 --> 01:59:29,040 Speaker 1: creative with, and he's also the best quarterback's best friends. 2424 01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:30,680 Speaker 1: And when you do hit him on the check down, 2425 01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:32,640 Speaker 1: he's got a chance to take it to this And 2426 01:59:32,680 --> 01:59:34,520 Speaker 1: there's nothing better as a quarterback to throw a four 2427 01:59:34,600 --> 01:59:37,440 Speaker 1: yard past to get credit. Freid, no question. We're joined 2428 01:59:37,440 --> 01:59:39,280 Speaker 1: by James frankl head coach, and the neately lines a 2429 01:59:39,320 --> 01:59:41,880 Speaker 1: couple more for him. Talking about the Giants second overall pick, 2430 01:59:42,120 --> 01:59:47,640 Speaker 1: say Kwon Barkley, UM coach. Analytics say the modern ones 2431 01:59:47,720 --> 01:59:50,560 Speaker 1: that maybe the running back position has lost some value 2432 01:59:50,560 --> 01:59:52,800 Speaker 1: and and and and it's a replaceable position. Dave get 2433 01:59:52,840 --> 01:59:56,000 Speaker 1: him in, the Giants general manager last night called that nonsense. 2434 01:59:56,000 --> 01:59:58,240 Speaker 1: He called it a myth. And I think the one 2435 01:59:58,280 --> 02:00:01,520 Speaker 1: thing a lot of these analytics can measure is the 2436 02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:04,440 Speaker 1: impact the presence of a running back on the field 2437 02:00:04,480 --> 02:00:06,360 Speaker 1: has on the rest of the offense. So as a 2438 02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:09,840 Speaker 1: guy that's seen Quan for three years and has seen 2439 02:00:10,600 --> 02:00:12,840 Speaker 1: the impact he has in your offense. What does his 2440 02:00:12,960 --> 02:00:16,560 Speaker 1: presence on the field due to a defense that helps 2441 02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:19,200 Speaker 1: your offense in ways that don't show up in the 2442 02:00:19,320 --> 02:00:22,320 Speaker 1: numbers and in the analytics and in the metrics. Yeah, 2443 02:00:22,480 --> 02:00:25,400 Speaker 1: I think that's they're they're the two most important points. 2444 02:00:25,400 --> 02:00:29,040 Speaker 1: It's not just the raw output of the running back 2445 02:00:29,120 --> 02:00:31,960 Speaker 1: position in the raw numbers and the yards rushing yards 2446 02:00:31,960 --> 02:00:33,920 Speaker 1: and things like that. That's where people missed the boat 2447 02:00:34,280 --> 02:00:36,440 Speaker 1: with Say Kwan and what he did for us. Everybody 2448 02:00:36,480 --> 02:00:39,520 Speaker 1: was so focused on just rushing yardage. The guy impacted 2449 02:00:39,520 --> 02:00:41,560 Speaker 1: the game in so many different ways. So I think 2450 02:00:41,880 --> 02:00:44,720 Speaker 1: you know your GM is exactly right. It's it's going 2451 02:00:44,760 --> 02:00:48,400 Speaker 1: to show up in more than just say Kuans stats. 2452 02:00:48,440 --> 02:00:52,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna see the whole offense um improved based on 2453 02:00:52,400 --> 02:00:54,520 Speaker 1: his presence on the field, you know. I think the 2454 02:00:54,600 --> 02:00:58,200 Speaker 1: other thing is, you know, if you're talking about the 2455 02:00:58,320 --> 02:01:01,520 Speaker 1: back that you've evaluate is on film that you've seen 2456 02:01:01,640 --> 02:01:04,840 Speaker 1: someone similar to this, uh that you could get in 2457 02:01:04,880 --> 02:01:07,840 Speaker 1: around two and three and four. I get it if 2458 02:01:07,840 --> 02:01:10,680 Speaker 1: you've if you've evaluated this running back and he's similar 2459 02:01:10,680 --> 02:01:13,200 Speaker 1: to what you've seen over the last five ten years, 2460 02:01:13,280 --> 02:01:15,480 Speaker 1: and that's fine. But when you see a guy that 2461 02:01:15,560 --> 02:01:17,920 Speaker 1: you feel like is different and from everything I've heard 2462 02:01:17,960 --> 02:01:21,440 Speaker 1: about the GM, his evaluation to say Kwon Barkley is 2463 02:01:21,480 --> 02:01:24,280 Speaker 1: this is something that doesn't come around very often. Absolutely, 2464 02:01:24,600 --> 02:01:28,000 Speaker 1: I think the rules change when you feel so strongly 2465 02:01:28,040 --> 02:01:32,160 Speaker 1: about your evaluation as a of a player, not only physically, 2466 02:01:32,400 --> 02:01:34,840 Speaker 1: but also when you sit down and you talk to 2467 02:01:34,840 --> 02:01:39,240 Speaker 1: to say Klon Barkley, his character is higher, uh than 2468 02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:42,840 Speaker 1: than his film grades are. Yeah, coach, and and that's 2469 02:01:42,840 --> 02:01:44,480 Speaker 1: the final thing I want to touch you touch with 2470 02:01:44,520 --> 02:01:46,280 Speaker 1: you on and that's the off the field stuff he's 2471 02:01:46,320 --> 02:01:48,080 Speaker 1: that's something that you know, I got game film here 2472 02:01:48,080 --> 02:01:50,040 Speaker 1: where I can watch it. But unless you're around the 2473 02:01:50,080 --> 02:01:51,640 Speaker 1: kid every day, you don't know what he brings to 2474 02:01:51,680 --> 02:01:55,160 Speaker 1: the locker room. What are the giants getting in say 2475 02:01:55,280 --> 02:01:57,880 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley as a person in the locker room and 2476 02:01:57,920 --> 02:02:00,240 Speaker 1: as a worker in the weight room, as this someone 2477 02:02:00,280 --> 02:02:04,520 Speaker 1: that sets a good example for his teammates. Things you know, 2478 02:02:04,560 --> 02:02:08,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to you know, set up unrealistic expectations 2479 02:02:08,560 --> 02:02:11,000 Speaker 1: for say Kwon. He's an unbelievable person and he's an 2480 02:02:11,080 --> 02:02:17,760 Speaker 1: unbelievable player. Still known his mistakes, um, but but I'll 2481 02:02:17,800 --> 02:02:21,560 Speaker 1: tell you what um, it's been a pleasure. It has 2482 02:02:21,600 --> 02:02:25,240 Speaker 1: been a blessing in my life. UM, being around say Kwan. 2483 02:02:25,440 --> 02:02:27,320 Speaker 1: You know how he was with my two daughters. I 2484 02:02:27,360 --> 02:02:29,280 Speaker 1: have a ten year old eleven year old daughter and 2485 02:02:29,960 --> 02:02:34,160 Speaker 1: tremendous mentor tremendous big brother. Um. Great guy in the 2486 02:02:34,200 --> 02:02:38,480 Speaker 1: locker room, great leader, leader through actions and leader verbally 2487 02:02:38,560 --> 02:02:41,320 Speaker 1: as well. UM, guy that never asked for the ball. 2488 02:02:41,480 --> 02:02:43,680 Speaker 1: Never was one of these guys coming to the sideline 2489 02:02:43,720 --> 02:02:45,920 Speaker 1: and upset if he didn't get the ball, you know 2490 02:02:46,000 --> 02:02:48,560 Speaker 1: a certain number of times, not once in four years 2491 02:02:48,560 --> 02:02:51,000 Speaker 1: that he ever asked for the ball. Um. You know. 2492 02:02:51,040 --> 02:02:53,000 Speaker 1: So you're just talking about a guy that you know 2493 02:02:53,160 --> 02:02:56,200 Speaker 1: is gonna embrace community service. He's gonna embrace making an 2494 02:02:56,240 --> 02:02:59,360 Speaker 1: impact in the community. He's gonna make the guys in 2495 02:02:59,440 --> 02:03:00,920 Speaker 1: the locker is gonna trying to make the guys in 2496 02:03:00,960 --> 02:03:04,080 Speaker 1: the locker room around him better. Um, he's gonna be, 2497 02:03:04,720 --> 02:03:07,560 Speaker 1: you know, a an extension of the coaching staff and 2498 02:03:07,640 --> 02:03:11,400 Speaker 1: an extension of the GM and the ownership UM in 2499 02:03:11,480 --> 02:03:14,480 Speaker 1: terms of how he conducts himself and how he represents 2500 02:03:14,520 --> 02:03:18,000 Speaker 1: So I just you know, I'm biased, obviously, but I 2501 02:03:18,080 --> 02:03:20,240 Speaker 1: love the guy and I think the role of him 2502 02:03:20,280 --> 02:03:24,280 Speaker 1: and his family and everything that he represents the final question, coach, 2503 02:03:24,440 --> 02:03:28,240 Speaker 1: and I think that is represented in how a player 2504 02:03:28,360 --> 02:03:30,800 Speaker 1: improves and when he steps in your building to when 2505 02:03:30,800 --> 02:03:36,120 Speaker 1: he leaves your building. How much and where did Barkley 2506 02:03:36,280 --> 02:03:38,520 Speaker 1: improve from the first day he walked in at Penn 2507 02:03:38,520 --> 02:03:42,320 Speaker 1: State to yesterday getting drafted into the NFL And how 2508 02:03:42,400 --> 02:03:44,839 Speaker 1: is he able to make those big jumps and improvement 2509 02:03:44,840 --> 02:03:47,560 Speaker 1: in terms of his game? Well, you know, I think 2510 02:03:47,800 --> 02:03:50,200 Speaker 1: you get that question a lot about like one area. 2511 02:03:50,200 --> 02:03:52,320 Speaker 1: And I think that's the thing that makes say Kwan 2512 02:03:52,520 --> 02:03:55,840 Speaker 1: unique is it's not one area. It's the combination of 2513 02:03:55,920 --> 02:03:59,320 Speaker 1: traits and skills that he has, uh, And really each 2514 02:03:59,440 --> 02:04:03,040 Speaker 1: one is strong where where most facts you know, and 2515 02:04:03,160 --> 02:04:05,960 Speaker 1: most players they may be really stronger than some areas, 2516 02:04:05,960 --> 02:04:08,480 Speaker 1: but they have weaknesses and other And with say quantity, 2517 02:04:08,560 --> 02:04:12,200 Speaker 1: just got so many skills. The body type you're looking for, 2518 02:04:12,280 --> 02:04:15,240 Speaker 1: the size that you're looking for, the strength, the speed, 2519 02:04:15,320 --> 02:04:18,040 Speaker 1: the power, um, the vision, you know, all if you 2520 02:04:18,120 --> 02:04:20,360 Speaker 1: list out all the qualities you're looking forward to running back, 2521 02:04:20,400 --> 02:04:23,240 Speaker 1: he's he's got a lot of them. So um, that's 2522 02:04:23,280 --> 02:04:26,320 Speaker 1: that's that's where I think kind of he differentiates himself. 2523 02:04:26,560 --> 02:04:28,200 Speaker 1: But I think the other thing is is the way 2524 02:04:28,200 --> 02:04:30,800 Speaker 1: he attacks that. He has a drive and a passion 2525 02:04:31,200 --> 02:04:33,520 Speaker 1: to be special. He wants to be, you know, the 2526 02:04:33,520 --> 02:04:35,400 Speaker 1: greatest running back to ever play the game. You know, 2527 02:04:35,440 --> 02:04:37,960 Speaker 1: at his at his party last night, you know, Jim 2528 02:04:38,000 --> 02:04:40,400 Speaker 1: Brown is there and someone obviously he looks up to, 2529 02:04:40,560 --> 02:04:42,720 Speaker 1: and he wants to be the greatest running back to 2530 02:04:42,720 --> 02:04:46,120 Speaker 1: ever play the game. And you know is really approached 2531 02:04:46,160 --> 02:04:48,400 Speaker 1: at that way since the day he stepped on our campus. 2532 02:04:48,440 --> 02:04:51,160 Speaker 1: He loves the game of football and has driven and 2533 02:04:51,280 --> 02:04:55,440 Speaker 1: passionate about being special. Jay Coach, I saw him at 2534 02:04:55,440 --> 02:04:58,000 Speaker 1: the combine close up. I saw him standing at the podium, 2535 02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:00,120 Speaker 1: and my first reaction was, my goodness. He has the 2536 02:05:00,160 --> 02:05:02,360 Speaker 1: thighs the size of tree trunks. And I can only 2537 02:05:02,400 --> 02:05:05,440 Speaker 1: imagine he had to work. That must have went into 2538 02:05:05,560 --> 02:05:09,760 Speaker 1: just developing his athleticism and athleticism and his body. Uh, 2539 02:05:09,800 --> 02:05:11,920 Speaker 1: the way he has. And I gotta be honest, I 2540 02:05:11,920 --> 02:05:13,280 Speaker 1: feel a little bad for you because I think your 2541 02:05:13,320 --> 02:05:16,640 Speaker 1: offense might see some fewer eight man fronts in the 2542 02:05:16,680 --> 02:05:20,040 Speaker 1: next couple of years with Taken no longer with the team. Uh. 2543 02:05:20,120 --> 02:05:22,720 Speaker 1: I can only imagine, um what an impact he had 2544 02:05:22,760 --> 02:05:25,520 Speaker 1: overall on your program. And it's been great listening to 2545 02:05:25,560 --> 02:05:27,400 Speaker 1: you talk about him today. We appreciate the time. Thanks 2546 02:05:27,440 --> 02:05:32,680 Speaker 1: so much, a great thank you. That's James Franklin, head 2547 02:05:32,720 --> 02:05:35,480 Speaker 1: coach of Penn State. Coach Stake Kwon Barkley a very 2548 02:05:35,520 --> 02:05:37,640 Speaker 1: thorough interview there, Paul, and a few things that jumped 2549 02:05:37,640 --> 02:05:40,160 Speaker 1: out to me. Um. We talked about Barkley ran a 2550 02:05:40,200 --> 02:05:42,640 Speaker 1: lot of the shotgun at Penn State. Well as a freshman, 2551 02:05:42,680 --> 02:05:44,320 Speaker 1: he ran out of the I formation a lot, so 2552 02:05:44,360 --> 02:05:48,160 Speaker 1: he does have a lot of flexibility in that way. Um, 2553 02:05:48,240 --> 02:05:50,320 Speaker 1: without me even asking the question. He did bring up 2554 02:05:50,360 --> 02:05:52,880 Speaker 1: the one weakness with his game that we had spoken 2555 02:05:52,920 --> 02:05:55,040 Speaker 1: about during the draft process that you know he used 2556 02:05:55,080 --> 02:05:57,000 Speaker 1: to learn maybe to take the dirty two or three 2557 02:05:57,040 --> 02:05:59,040 Speaker 1: yards instead of trying to bounce everything and make a 2558 02:05:59,080 --> 02:06:02,000 Speaker 1: big play. Coach brought that up on his own. Um. 2559 02:06:02,000 --> 02:06:04,080 Speaker 1: But the one thing that really jumped out to me 2560 02:06:04,360 --> 02:06:08,040 Speaker 1: was he talked to him. He said last year or 2561 02:06:08,040 --> 02:06:11,400 Speaker 1: two years ago, when Ezekiel Elliott was in the draft, 2562 02:06:12,160 --> 02:06:15,320 Speaker 1: and he said, Kan, what do you hear all these 2563 02:06:15,360 --> 02:06:18,040 Speaker 1: people saying about Ezekiel Elliott? And he goes, he's a 2564 02:06:18,040 --> 02:06:20,000 Speaker 1: great running back and he says, well, what else did 2565 02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:24,040 Speaker 1: they mention? He's a great pass protector. You want to 2566 02:06:24,080 --> 02:06:27,920 Speaker 1: get noticed protect the passer. And he said the two 2567 02:06:27,960 --> 02:06:30,160 Speaker 1: things that Barkley when he got the Penn State wasn't 2568 02:06:30,160 --> 02:06:33,680 Speaker 1: great at that he had to improve that was catching 2569 02:06:33,680 --> 02:06:36,720 Speaker 1: the football and protecting the passer. And those are two 2570 02:06:36,760 --> 02:06:39,240 Speaker 1: things that he really worked on. And he said, you know, 2571 02:06:39,320 --> 02:06:42,960 Speaker 1: Barkley somebody that likes to pinpoint weaknesses and improve on 2572 02:06:43,040 --> 02:06:45,560 Speaker 1: those and get better at them. And that's something that 2573 02:06:46,040 --> 02:06:48,120 Speaker 1: we saw in his years at Penn State. And he 2574 02:06:48,160 --> 02:06:50,800 Speaker 1: couldn't speak more highly the type of guy that he was, 2575 02:06:51,200 --> 02:06:53,440 Speaker 1: which tells me he's the guy that loves the game. 2576 02:06:53,600 --> 02:06:56,360 Speaker 1: He's a good kid, he works hard, likes to improve. 2577 02:06:56,960 --> 02:07:00,680 Speaker 1: That spells a good formula for NFL success at the 2578 02:07:00,680 --> 02:07:03,360 Speaker 1: next level. Well, I'm going to take that a step further, John, 2579 02:07:03,600 --> 02:07:07,120 Speaker 1: because that tells me he's a self motivator. Yes, and 2580 02:07:07,200 --> 02:07:10,120 Speaker 1: you need self motivators as you went through the NFL, 2581 02:07:10,240 --> 02:07:13,760 Speaker 1: because we've talked about it so many times that you know, 2582 02:07:13,800 --> 02:07:16,960 Speaker 1: these guys coming to the league and maybe they can't 2583 02:07:17,000 --> 02:07:19,760 Speaker 1: spend as much time on the fundamentals and the coaching 2584 02:07:19,760 --> 02:07:22,000 Speaker 1: and the polishing up that they need to right away. 2585 02:07:22,280 --> 02:07:23,720 Speaker 1: And that's why a lot of rookies don't make a 2586 02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:27,560 Speaker 1: quick impact because it takes time and they just don't 2587 02:07:27,560 --> 02:07:30,040 Speaker 1: get the time with the limited amount of practice hours 2588 02:07:30,040 --> 02:07:33,320 Speaker 1: that they get in the NFL to fully develop their skills. 2589 02:07:33,360 --> 02:07:36,120 Speaker 1: So if you're a self motivator, it gives you an 2590 02:07:36,120 --> 02:07:39,280 Speaker 1: advantage to accelerate your development, no question about it. And 2591 02:07:39,280 --> 02:07:41,400 Speaker 1: of course we'll end up putting that interview up on 2592 02:07:41,400 --> 02:07:43,360 Speaker 1: its own on giants dot com as well, probably at 2593 02:07:43,360 --> 02:07:45,480 Speaker 1: some point over that or tomorrow, so you can check 2594 02:07:45,520 --> 02:07:47,760 Speaker 1: that out as well as for the show. We're gonna 2595 02:07:47,760 --> 02:07:49,560 Speaker 1: continue taking a few more of your calls, and in 2596 02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:52,360 Speaker 1: a few minutes, Jonah Tolls from n d T Scouting 2597 02:07:52,560 --> 02:07:54,600 Speaker 1: will kind of break down some of the surprises he's 2598 02:07:54,600 --> 02:07:56,480 Speaker 1: seemed so far in the second round, and then we'll 2599 02:07:56,480 --> 02:07:58,240 Speaker 1: look ahead to the Giants pick at the top around 2600 02:07:58,280 --> 02:07:59,760 Speaker 1: three and poll. We should go through the rest of 2601 02:07:59,760 --> 02:08:02,400 Speaker 1: the elections that were made during that interview. We are 2602 02:08:02,440 --> 02:08:08,080 Speaker 1: ten picks away from the Giants next selection. Not that close. Sorry, Yeah, 2603 02:08:08,080 --> 02:08:10,680 Speaker 1: they're up to pick number sixty six or fifty six 2604 02:08:10,680 --> 02:08:15,600 Speaker 1: and the Giants picking sixty six. There you go through 2605 02:08:15,640 --> 02:08:19,200 Speaker 1: the man excellent and I think we were that close anyway. 2606 02:08:19,240 --> 02:08:21,200 Speaker 1: The picks that we missed while we were away. Uh, 2607 02:08:21,200 --> 02:08:24,240 Speaker 1: Anthony Miller went to the Bears at fifty one, Colts 2608 02:08:24,240 --> 02:08:28,280 Speaker 1: took to Comoco Terrey at fifty two, Bucks took m J. Stewart, 2609 02:08:28,280 --> 02:08:30,720 Speaker 1: the cornerback out of North Carolina at fifty three, and 2610 02:08:30,760 --> 02:08:33,480 Speaker 1: the Bengals took safety Jesse Bates at a wake Forest 2611 02:08:33,920 --> 02:08:35,880 Speaker 1: at fifty four. We've talked about a lot of these guys. 2612 02:08:35,960 --> 02:08:38,320 Speaker 1: Mill are very good, productive wide receiver at in Memphis. 2613 02:08:38,480 --> 02:08:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan is. I think he was the 2614 02:08:39,960 --> 02:08:43,040 Speaker 1: third best wide receiver in the class. Tore the very 2615 02:08:43,160 --> 02:08:46,120 Speaker 1: raw pass rusher at a Rutgers former basketball player, had 2616 02:08:46,120 --> 02:08:49,240 Speaker 1: a couple of shoulder surgeries in twenty sixteen, but all 2617 02:08:49,280 --> 02:08:51,360 Speaker 1: the physical talent you could want. He played well at 2618 02:08:51,360 --> 02:08:54,880 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl. M J. Stewart slot defender at a 2619 02:08:54,960 --> 02:09:05,480 Speaker 1: North Carolina. Uh, he's somebody that. And then you have 2620 02:09:05,640 --> 02:09:07,800 Speaker 1: m Jston. You have Jesse Bates, safety at a wake 2621 02:09:07,880 --> 02:09:12,080 Speaker 1: Forest who went to the Bengals. Um. So again, let's 2622 02:09:12,080 --> 02:09:13,400 Speaker 1: go to the calls we have. Will go to Nick 2623 02:09:13,400 --> 02:09:16,280 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania first before we get Joan on the line. 2624 02:09:16,280 --> 02:09:17,840 Speaker 1: In a few minutes, Nick, what's going on now? How 2625 02:09:17,880 --> 02:09:25,840 Speaker 1: are you hi what's up? Oh my god, forever and 2626 02:09:26,040 --> 02:09:29,480 Speaker 1: talk to you guys, and working so much. We've been 2627 02:09:29,480 --> 02:09:34,480 Speaker 1: working pretty hard too good to talk to you. Oh 2628 02:09:34,520 --> 02:09:37,920 Speaker 1: my god, I don't know what to say. First of all, Paul, 2629 02:09:38,280 --> 02:09:40,280 Speaker 1: do you know what the lottery numbers are? Because you've 2630 02:09:40,320 --> 02:09:43,920 Speaker 1: picked every freaking jock we've been calling for, so I 2631 02:09:43,920 --> 02:09:45,840 Speaker 1: thought that you're the only one getting credit for this. 2632 02:09:45,920 --> 02:09:48,800 Speaker 1: By the way, I'm getting a little annoyed because because 2633 02:09:48,800 --> 02:09:52,280 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, these two weren't nearly as hard 2634 02:09:52,320 --> 02:09:55,800 Speaker 1: as some of the other ones over the years. But nonetheless, 2635 02:09:56,080 --> 02:09:58,960 Speaker 1: the good news is the Giants got these players. I 2636 02:09:59,000 --> 02:10:01,560 Speaker 1: could care less about getting credit for it. I'm just 2637 02:10:01,600 --> 02:10:05,320 Speaker 1: happy they got him, all right, So who do you think? 2638 02:10:07,120 --> 02:10:11,840 Speaker 1: Who do you think? You? Guys? Well, can you can 2639 02:10:11,880 --> 02:10:14,000 Speaker 1: you tell me who's gonna be there? I mean, I 2640 02:10:14,120 --> 02:10:19,560 Speaker 1: love Isaiah Oliver, I love Carlton Davis, I love Jamarco Jones. Uh. 2641 02:10:19,600 --> 02:10:21,840 Speaker 1: Those are all guys that would be very, very attractive 2642 02:10:21,880 --> 02:10:24,240 Speaker 1: to me. And I'm still gonna tell you I love 2643 02:10:24,280 --> 02:10:27,440 Speaker 1: Lorenzo Carter, the outside linebacker around at Georgia. If he's there, 2644 02:10:27,440 --> 02:10:30,520 Speaker 1: that's an option, Paul, Absolutely, I'll be honest with you. 2645 02:10:30,640 --> 02:10:32,960 Speaker 1: John as highly rated as the corners are, and I 2646 02:10:32,960 --> 02:10:37,480 Speaker 1: think there's good value in need there. Lorenzo Carter. I 2647 02:10:37,680 --> 02:10:40,040 Speaker 1: got a feeling he's gonna be a better pro than 2648 02:10:40,080 --> 02:10:42,760 Speaker 1: he was in college. And Dante Jackson just went off 2649 02:10:42,760 --> 02:10:44,720 Speaker 1: the board at corner to the Panthers, by the way, 2650 02:10:45,080 --> 02:10:52,800 Speaker 1: and the Patriots still there. That here's the thing about Carter, 2651 02:10:52,920 --> 02:10:55,560 Speaker 1: and we talked about his versatility, could play week side, 2652 02:10:55,600 --> 02:10:59,000 Speaker 1: could play strong side, see and Betri's scheme. I like that. 2653 02:10:59,360 --> 02:11:01,520 Speaker 1: I really not a guy who's gonna be able to 2654 02:11:01,680 --> 02:11:04,600 Speaker 1: physically adapt to the different things that Betcher is going 2655 02:11:04,640 --> 02:11:07,560 Speaker 1: to want him to do. That's the confusion that bet 2656 02:11:07,640 --> 02:11:10,360 Speaker 1: youer wants to wreck, or that the kind of havoc 2657 02:11:10,400 --> 02:11:13,720 Speaker 1: he wants to wreck on another team's offense. So I'm 2658 02:11:13,800 --> 02:11:15,840 Speaker 1: high for him right now and we'll see if he 2659 02:11:15,840 --> 02:11:19,960 Speaker 1: can drop now. I want all the Giant fans to 2660 02:11:20,000 --> 02:11:24,400 Speaker 1: know this, and you guys are the best to answer this. Well, 2661 02:11:24,440 --> 02:11:27,760 Speaker 1: Hernandez is not going to be going against speed pass rusher. 2662 02:11:29,120 --> 02:11:34,400 Speaker 1: No wonder things that he always his beet by speed rushers, 2663 02:11:34,440 --> 02:11:37,800 Speaker 1: well nine times about ten. You're not gonna go against 2664 02:11:37,840 --> 02:11:40,920 Speaker 1: a defensive tackle that's a speed rusher. Correct, Hey, look, look, 2665 02:11:40,960 --> 02:11:42,840 Speaker 1: I think, well, Hernandez, it's fair to say he may 2666 02:11:42,880 --> 02:11:44,880 Speaker 1: be struggles a little bit with some of the quicker guys. 2667 02:11:44,920 --> 02:11:47,800 Speaker 1: But but again, he he's a guard. It's not like 2668 02:11:47,840 --> 02:11:50,840 Speaker 1: he's out on an island against Khalil mack On every 2669 02:11:50,880 --> 02:11:56,160 Speaker 1: player and the Giant fans get so scared just because 2670 02:11:57,160 --> 02:12:02,080 Speaker 1: he's not a hundred saying great again, speed us. Hey, 2671 02:12:02,200 --> 02:12:04,200 Speaker 1: here's the thing. And I said this a million times 2672 02:12:04,200 --> 02:12:05,960 Speaker 1: and and and and Nick, thanks a lot for the call. 2673 02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:10,920 Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Um good stuff. There is no perfect prospect. Okay, 2674 02:12:11,480 --> 02:12:14,760 Speaker 1: every pick that's ever been made in the history of 2675 02:12:14,800 --> 02:12:18,120 Speaker 1: any sport, you can say a reason why this player 2676 02:12:18,200 --> 02:12:20,960 Speaker 1: is not perfect. So yeah, is will hernand is perfect? 2677 02:12:20,960 --> 02:12:24,040 Speaker 1: That everything? No, but that's fine, nobody is. Uh. Patriots 2678 02:12:24,040 --> 02:12:27,440 Speaker 1: of fifty six selected Duke Dawson, and I think the 2679 02:12:27,560 --> 02:12:31,680 Speaker 1: run on corners, by the way, and so is Dante Jackson, 2680 02:12:31,720 --> 02:12:33,480 Speaker 1: and so is M. J. Stewart. So three out of 2681 02:12:33,480 --> 02:12:37,240 Speaker 1: the last four picks are slot corners. Here, this one 2682 02:12:37,320 --> 02:12:41,480 Speaker 1: to the Patriots Duke Dawson, cornerback out of Florida. And 2683 02:12:41,520 --> 02:12:44,720 Speaker 1: yet Carlton Davis was regarded as a potential late first 2684 02:12:44,840 --> 02:12:47,960 Speaker 1: rounder and Oliver for sure was going to be an 2685 02:12:47,960 --> 02:12:51,360 Speaker 1: early second and they're both slipping right now. So that's 2686 02:12:51,360 --> 02:12:54,640 Speaker 1: that's gonna be interesting there. Maybe there's something in those 2687 02:12:54,680 --> 02:12:59,120 Speaker 1: files again that teams no medical or otherwise that have 2688 02:12:59,200 --> 02:13:01,600 Speaker 1: not come to the pick forefront. And Darius guy stole 2689 02:13:01,640 --> 02:13:04,440 Speaker 1: on the board as well, well, wasn't one of the 2690 02:13:04,760 --> 02:13:06,920 Speaker 1: ranks said that I think he could fall. They said 2691 02:13:06,960 --> 02:13:09,960 Speaker 1: that that was possible. So anyway, we're getting closer Pick 2692 02:13:10,000 --> 02:13:12,680 Speaker 1: fifty seven Giants or at sixty six. Joseph and the 2693 02:13:12,680 --> 02:13:14,320 Speaker 1: Bronx health of the interview. Let's get to him and 2694 02:13:14,360 --> 02:13:16,440 Speaker 1: then we'll get Joe up on the phone. Natalie, what's 2695 02:13:16,480 --> 02:13:20,000 Speaker 1: going on, Joseph? How are you? Hey? Hello? What about that? Joseph? 2696 02:13:20,040 --> 02:13:22,280 Speaker 1: You're on the air.

Well, he could 2703 02:13:44,480 --> 02:13:47,360 Speaker 1: take a flyer on him towards the end. Oh yeah, 2704 02:13:47,400 --> 02:13:50,360 Speaker 1: but I would not take a flyer on him on 2705 02:13:50,480 --> 02:13:52,880 Speaker 1: day two. He's a Day three flyer to me, not 2706 02:13:52,960 --> 02:13:54,720 Speaker 1: a Day two flying I think a lot of people 2707 02:13:54,760 --> 02:13:59,120 Speaker 1: probably feel well, way, oh well, thank you, I'm I'm 2708 02:13:59,120 --> 02:14:03,560 Speaker 1: gonna go hig him.

But 2715 02:14:25,840 --> 02:14:27,600 Speaker 1: you know, we always end up getting the prediction. Our 2716 02:14:27,600 --> 02:14:31,040 Speaker 1: experts have nailed the picks for the Giants and rounds three, four, 2717 02:14:31,040 --> 02:14:33,240 Speaker 1: and five. John Ledyard especially will be with us. Yesterday's 2718 02:14:33,240 --> 02:14:35,680 Speaker 1: being great picking some of these guys. We'll get Joda's 2719 02:14:35,680 --> 02:14:37,800 Speaker 1: opinion on kind of what's coming up here for the 2720 02:14:37,800 --> 02:14:40,880 Speaker 1: Giants at the top of round number three. When we 2721 02:14:40,880 --> 02:14:42,600 Speaker 1: get him on the phone again, Jonah Tolls from n 2722 02:14:42,640 --> 02:14:45,920 Speaker 1: d T Scouting, we'll be joining us in just a second, um, 2723 02:14:45,920 --> 02:14:48,160 Speaker 1: waiting for the Raiders selection here at the fifty seven 2724 02:14:48,280 --> 02:14:52,560 Speaker 1: overall pick, and they select p J. Hall, a defensive 2725 02:14:52,600 --> 02:14:55,840 Speaker 1: tackle out of sam Houston State. And I gotta be honest, Paul, 2726 02:14:56,240 --> 02:14:58,960 Speaker 1: this is the first guy that's been selected that I'm 2727 02:14:59,000 --> 02:15:01,360 Speaker 1: really not that familiar with. What do you got on PJ? Hall? 2728 02:15:01,480 --> 02:15:03,760 Speaker 1: For me? All right? I got on PJ Hall a 2729 02:15:03,840 --> 02:15:07,280 Speaker 1: four three defensive tackle or possibly playing a three or 2730 02:15:07,280 --> 02:15:11,920 Speaker 1: four defensive and I said that he was athletic, uh, 2731 02:15:11,960 --> 02:15:14,640 Speaker 1: he has a quick get off at the snap. Looked 2732 02:15:14,680 --> 02:15:17,120 Speaker 1: like he's a very smart player and understands what he's 2733 02:15:17,120 --> 02:15:20,200 Speaker 1: got to do very well. My questions on him the 2734 02:15:20,200 --> 02:15:23,280 Speaker 1: repertoire moves that he showed, as well as perhaps a 2735 02:15:23,320 --> 02:15:25,920 Speaker 1: lack of power. At six three, three eleven, he should 2736 02:15:25,920 --> 02:15:28,440 Speaker 1: play stronger than he does, at least that's the way 2737 02:15:28,520 --> 02:15:31,520 Speaker 1: I saw it. I had him as a solid second rounder, 2738 02:15:31,920 --> 02:15:36,080 Speaker 1: so he's going pretty much in the vicinity of where 2739 02:15:36,120 --> 02:15:37,960 Speaker 1: he should be. Now, you're also a sucker for the 2740 02:15:37,960 --> 02:15:41,160 Speaker 1: small school guy too, Sam Euston say, you know, I 2741 02:15:41,280 --> 02:15:43,400 Speaker 1: confess I I have a little bit of a soft 2742 02:15:43,440 --> 02:15:45,520 Speaker 1: spot for those guys because I think that you know, 2743 02:15:45,920 --> 02:15:48,400 Speaker 1: they put something on tape, they put the production out there, 2744 02:15:48,440 --> 02:15:50,200 Speaker 1: they got the skill set. I don't want to. I 2745 02:15:50,240 --> 02:15:52,480 Speaker 1: don't want to hold things against them. Now they got 2746 02:15:52,560 --> 02:15:54,360 Speaker 1: Jones on the line or not yet? All right, let's 2747 02:15:54,640 --> 02:15:56,240 Speaker 1: let us know when you haven't call him back again. 2748 02:15:56,240 --> 02:15:59,680 Speaker 1: When we get him, we'll we'll we'll throw him right on. Um. 2749 02:15:59,760 --> 02:16:03,280 Speaker 1: So a pick p J Hall, the defensive lineman um 2750 02:16:03,280 --> 02:16:05,320 Speaker 1: out of Sam Houston Stad he goes to the Oakland Raiders. 2751 02:16:05,360 --> 02:16:07,560 Speaker 1: All right, Paul, let's go through our list here. Um. 2752 02:16:07,600 --> 02:16:10,240 Speaker 1: Who are some of the guys that you're earmarking that 2753 02:16:10,280 --> 02:16:12,600 Speaker 1: are on the board and have not been selected yet? 2754 02:16:12,840 --> 02:16:15,600 Speaker 1: That could be the Giants selections when they pick in 2755 02:16:15,720 --> 02:16:19,080 Speaker 1: round number three at pick number sixty six and pick 2756 02:16:19,200 --> 02:16:23,400 Speaker 1: number sixty nine, there are three four, five, six, seven, 2757 02:16:23,800 --> 02:16:26,560 Speaker 1: eight selections of the Giants pick at sixty six, and 2758 02:16:26,600 --> 02:16:29,360 Speaker 1: then there are two picks between the Giants selections at 2759 02:16:29,400 --> 02:16:31,280 Speaker 1: sixty six and sixty nine. What do you got for me? 2760 02:16:31,760 --> 02:16:34,840 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt John, If Carlton Davis 2761 02:16:34,959 --> 02:16:38,200 Speaker 1: is there, the value is too good for me to 2762 02:16:38,240 --> 02:16:40,320 Speaker 1: pass up at the top of the third round, unless 2763 02:16:40,360 --> 02:16:43,880 Speaker 1: there's something in his files again that we don't know about, 2764 02:16:43,920 --> 02:16:46,120 Speaker 1: that is forcing him. The drop that causes you to 2765 02:16:46,200 --> 02:16:48,640 Speaker 1: have a yellow or a red flag. You know, it's 2766 02:16:48,680 --> 02:16:50,360 Speaker 1: hard for me to pass up the value because I 2767 02:16:50,400 --> 02:16:53,480 Speaker 1: gotta think his value is much higher than top of 2768 02:16:53,520 --> 02:16:55,720 Speaker 1: the third round. But I'm going to continue to say 2769 02:16:55,840 --> 02:16:58,879 Speaker 1: I hope, I really hope they get Lorenzo Cartered with 2770 02:16:58,920 --> 02:17:01,560 Speaker 1: one of those three two third round picks. I like 2771 02:17:01,600 --> 02:17:03,680 Speaker 1: I said, Oliver two, and I think I might like 2772 02:17:03,879 --> 02:17:05,360 Speaker 1: a little bit more than Carlton Davis, but I think 2773 02:17:05,400 --> 02:17:07,520 Speaker 1: they're both in the same category. I think both would 2774 02:17:07,520 --> 02:17:10,520 Speaker 1: be fine selections. Uh, this late in the process, all right, 2775 02:17:10,600 --> 02:17:13,840 Speaker 1: let's bringing our guest, Jonah Tolls for m DT Scouting. 2776 02:17:14,120 --> 02:17:16,160 Speaker 1: He joined us now he's one of our frequent guests 2777 02:17:16,200 --> 02:17:18,640 Speaker 1: during the draft process. He does a great job, Jonih. 2778 02:17:18,640 --> 02:17:20,960 Speaker 1: He got smelking Detino here in New Jersey. How are you. 2779 02:17:22,000 --> 02:17:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm doing good. Thanks trying me on, guys, appreciate it. 2780 02:17:24,000 --> 02:17:26,640 Speaker 1: Thanks for being with us. We appreciate it. Let's start 2781 02:17:26,720 --> 02:17:30,400 Speaker 1: this first in going in this direction, biggest surprise for 2782 02:17:30,440 --> 02:17:32,920 Speaker 1: you and round number two so far, Jonah, give me 2783 02:17:32,959 --> 02:17:35,440 Speaker 1: a couple of what he got. Yeah, there already been 2784 02:17:35,440 --> 02:17:38,320 Speaker 1: a couple of Yeutesmember Breland speaks going the first round 2785 02:17:38,320 --> 02:17:40,600 Speaker 1: of the Chiefs. Not only did he go to the Chiefs, 2786 02:17:40,600 --> 02:17:42,120 Speaker 1: but they traded up for him. I had him in 2787 02:17:42,160 --> 02:17:44,000 Speaker 1: the late fifth round. I think it was more of 2788 02:17:44,040 --> 02:17:48,440 Speaker 1: a project and trading up for nonetheless forty pick with 2789 02:17:48,520 --> 02:17:50,560 Speaker 1: a massive reach, of my opinion, and the one that 2790 02:17:50,640 --> 02:17:53,360 Speaker 1: just went p J Hall to the Oakland Raiders so 2791 02:17:53,480 --> 02:17:55,280 Speaker 1: far to the Oakland Raiders, the drafted Colton Mill and 2792 02:17:55,280 --> 02:17:57,400 Speaker 1: Puja Hall. Colton Mill was a fourth round grand on 2793 02:17:57,400 --> 02:17:59,480 Speaker 1: my board and Pja Hall was a sixth round grad 2794 02:17:59,560 --> 02:18:02,040 Speaker 1: on my board. So Jon Gruden is really going out 2795 02:18:02,080 --> 02:18:03,480 Speaker 1: of the box right here with the couple of first 2796 02:18:03,480 --> 02:18:07,680 Speaker 1: picks as far as you're concerned right now, besides guys 2797 02:18:08,000 --> 02:18:10,320 Speaker 1: which I think we are all looking at with our 2798 02:18:10,400 --> 02:18:13,320 Speaker 1: jaws dropping that he has just fallen like a stone, 2799 02:18:13,760 --> 02:18:15,920 Speaker 1: is there anybody else? And and by the way, we 2800 02:18:15,959 --> 02:18:17,720 Speaker 1: don't have the volume of the TV on here, we're 2801 02:18:17,760 --> 02:18:20,279 Speaker 1: doing a show. Do you know why guys is falling? 2802 02:18:20,280 --> 02:18:22,800 Speaker 1: And is there anybody else who was just plumbering that 2803 02:18:22,840 --> 02:18:25,959 Speaker 1: you didn't expect to see dropped like that? Yeah? I 2804 02:18:26,040 --> 02:18:28,760 Speaker 1: understand the maturity concerns with guys like from the fall 2805 02:18:28,800 --> 02:18:30,720 Speaker 1: in the first round, but for him to almost fall 2806 02:18:30,840 --> 02:18:33,720 Speaker 1: the second round is absolutely sanity. To me. This is 2807 02:18:33,720 --> 02:18:35,760 Speaker 1: a guy that is one of most productive running backs 2808 02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, come out with lu he was sitting behind 2809 02:18:37,520 --> 02:18:40,440 Speaker 1: the lending four net. He's had two great seasons over there. 2810 02:18:40,640 --> 02:18:42,440 Speaker 1: He's almost powerful one back to this cost, there's no 2811 02:18:42,480 --> 02:18:44,040 Speaker 1: reason for him to be falling this far. So you 2812 02:18:44,080 --> 02:18:47,120 Speaker 1: see here pretty quickly out of bed. The next guy 2813 02:18:47,200 --> 02:18:49,720 Speaker 1: that has really dropped that did not, such as Isaiah Oliver, 2814 02:18:49,920 --> 02:18:54,039 Speaker 1: the corner from Colorado. Because the seventeenth, seventeenth overall player 2815 02:18:54,000 --> 02:18:56,000 Speaker 1: on my draft board. I think this guy's the most 2816 02:18:56,080 --> 02:18:58,840 Speaker 1: upside of any cornerback in the draft than Denzel Ward. 2817 02:18:58,879 --> 02:19:02,199 Speaker 1: Haislan Alexander. Guy has the wink. Guys, the ball feels 2818 02:19:02,200 --> 02:19:04,520 Speaker 1: to be a number one quarterback in a press Man scheme. 2819 02:19:04,879 --> 02:19:07,120 Speaker 1: This is like that deserves to go somewhere in the 2820 02:19:07,160 --> 02:19:10,000 Speaker 1: top twenty, no less almost the third round. So this 2821 02:19:10,080 --> 02:19:13,320 Speaker 1: guy's legitimate steal along with there's guys. Um, how about 2822 02:19:13,320 --> 02:19:16,480 Speaker 1: Carlton Davis. Are you surprised he's still around on the 2823 02:19:16,480 --> 02:19:19,480 Speaker 1: board as well? This is about where I expect him 2824 02:19:19,520 --> 02:19:21,800 Speaker 1: to go. I think he's he's just like all of 2825 02:19:21,800 --> 02:19:24,360 Speaker 1: our big press corners, doesn't great ball skills, so le's 2826 02:19:24,360 --> 02:19:27,480 Speaker 1: probably why he's not. He's not gone yet. But again, um, 2827 02:19:27,520 --> 02:19:28,920 Speaker 1: he's just one of those guys where he's just really 2828 02:19:28,959 --> 02:19:30,400 Speaker 1: solid and he's just one of the guys I think 2829 02:19:30,400 --> 02:19:32,440 Speaker 1: he's as a high swore, he'd be a low ceiling 2830 02:19:32,440 --> 02:19:34,400 Speaker 1: maybe never be a Pro Bowl kind of player, but 2831 02:19:34,440 --> 02:19:36,600 Speaker 1: he'll always be the kind of a reliable press corps. 2832 02:19:36,600 --> 02:19:38,039 Speaker 1: So I am a little b surprised he's still here. 2833 02:19:38,040 --> 02:19:40,040 Speaker 1: How about linebackers? Giant fans think there's a need a 2834 02:19:40,080 --> 02:19:41,879 Speaker 1: linebacker here at the top a round three. Who do 2835 02:19:41,920 --> 02:19:43,320 Speaker 1: you like that's still on the board. That could be 2836 02:19:43,400 --> 02:19:46,720 Speaker 1: a giant target about eight or nine picks. Yeah, I 2837 02:19:46,760 --> 02:19:48,160 Speaker 1: think you guys should keep an eye on a couple 2838 02:19:48,200 --> 02:19:50,560 Speaker 1: of players. Lorenzo Carters from Georgia makes a lot of sense. 2839 02:19:50,560 --> 02:19:54,480 Speaker 1: That's a big, big, long guy who's really athletic, a 2840 02:19:54,600 --> 02:19:58,000 Speaker 1: lot of potential. This guy has Anthony Barr like potential. 2841 02:19:58,040 --> 02:20:00,880 Speaker 1: If you guys, you can develop him, right, I'm actually 2842 02:20:00,879 --> 02:20:02,800 Speaker 1: really surprised he still on the board right at this point. 2843 02:20:03,120 --> 02:20:06,359 Speaker 1: Another guy's Josie Jewel. Josie Jewels, the guy who's really instinctive, 2844 02:20:06,360 --> 02:20:08,640 Speaker 1: the guy who goes sign on the sideline, can really 2845 02:20:08,640 --> 02:20:10,920 Speaker 1: get down the field. I really like his ability to 2846 02:20:10,959 --> 02:20:14,440 Speaker 1: make tackles and finished play. So keeping on those two guys. Well, Jonah, 2847 02:20:14,560 --> 02:20:17,520 Speaker 1: the suspense is over. Isaiah Oliver is off the boards 2848 02:20:17,560 --> 02:20:25,320 Speaker 1: of the Atlanta Falconsall that's it. We should stop talking 2849 02:20:25,320 --> 02:20:29,760 Speaker 1: about Lorenzo Carda because now he's gonna go next. Um 2850 02:20:29,800 --> 02:20:32,320 Speaker 1: about um, how about the safety position. We've seen a 2851 02:20:32,360 --> 02:20:34,320 Speaker 1: couple of guys going along the board. I think a 2852 02:20:34,320 --> 02:20:36,640 Speaker 1: lot of people are surprised that Ronnie Harrison is still 2853 02:20:36,680 --> 02:20:38,480 Speaker 1: sitting there. What do you think of the rest of 2854 02:20:38,520 --> 02:20:41,960 Speaker 1: the safety class? Oh, I am really surprised and safety 2855 02:20:42,000 --> 02:20:44,520 Speaker 1: class is dropped this far because there's a big drop 2856 02:20:44,520 --> 02:20:46,160 Speaker 1: off of the first couple of guys. Like we just talk, 2857 02:20:46,240 --> 02:20:48,640 Speaker 1: Jessie Bates go off the board earlier, and I'm starting 2858 02:20:48,640 --> 02:20:50,640 Speaker 1: to wonder when Justin Reeves can go off the board. 2859 02:20:50,840 --> 02:20:54,000 Speaker 1: It's got tested tested off the roof at the Combine. 2860 02:20:54,240 --> 02:20:56,560 Speaker 1: And this guy's who had great production as final Susan 2861 02:20:56,560 --> 02:21:00,280 Speaker 1: at Stanford. Um, young guy, great upside, can play man, average, 2862 02:21:00,280 --> 02:21:03,680 Speaker 1: really versatile player. I'm surprised that the Patriots passed on him. Um. 2863 02:21:03,720 --> 02:21:06,200 Speaker 1: But uh, the only guy Ronnie Harrison you just mentioned him. 2864 02:21:06,200 --> 02:21:07,800 Speaker 1: He's kind of an enforcer in the run game, A 2865 02:21:07,840 --> 02:21:09,920 Speaker 1: true strong safety. But he's a guy who is a 2866 02:21:09,920 --> 02:21:12,480 Speaker 1: strong safety plus nothing. It's this fox guy. He can 2867 02:21:12,520 --> 02:21:15,280 Speaker 1: play deep, he can play cover to guy who who 2868 02:21:15,320 --> 02:21:17,879 Speaker 1: play man coverage. I'm was surprised those safety strong the board, 2869 02:21:17,920 --> 02:21:20,520 Speaker 1: so Junia safety. Um, there's still so much for you 2870 02:21:20,520 --> 02:21:22,520 Speaker 1: guys a draft. You know, we knew coming in that 2871 02:21:22,600 --> 02:21:25,400 Speaker 1: the defensive end crop was not going to be great. 2872 02:21:25,480 --> 02:21:29,520 Speaker 1: But nonetheless, Sam Hobbard from Ohio State I thought I 2873 02:21:29,680 --> 02:21:32,360 Speaker 1: thought might be gone by now. I see him more 2874 02:21:32,400 --> 02:21:34,440 Speaker 1: as a left defensive end in a four three than 2875 02:21:34,480 --> 02:21:37,280 Speaker 1: necessarily playing in a three four. But that's a guy 2876 02:21:37,320 --> 02:21:39,680 Speaker 1: who should start intriguing some people at this point, don't 2877 02:21:39,720 --> 02:21:42,560 Speaker 1: you think? Yeah? And you know why that this guy 2878 02:21:42,640 --> 02:21:44,280 Speaker 1: is not a sexy pick, this guy around. No, he's 2879 02:21:44,280 --> 02:21:47,000 Speaker 1: not in this pro day and so like people are 2880 02:21:47,000 --> 02:21:48,520 Speaker 1: going to pass on him because he doesn't have the 2881 02:21:48,560 --> 02:21:50,360 Speaker 1: flashy traits that some of these guys are reaching for. 2882 02:21:50,560 --> 02:21:53,600 Speaker 1: He's just a studies yeah, something you guys are reaching for. 2883 02:21:53,680 --> 02:21:55,840 Speaker 1: Breedlan speaking in p J. Hallward fits six strong guds 2884 02:21:55,840 --> 02:21:58,240 Speaker 1: on board. Sam Hobwards is a dang good football player, 2885 02:21:58,440 --> 02:22:00,440 Speaker 1: the guy who's getting some job done. And I think 2886 02:22:00,600 --> 02:22:01,879 Speaker 1: this is the guy you should take in the BOMA 2887 02:22:01,879 --> 02:22:03,640 Speaker 1: A second early third round is good value pick. You 2888 02:22:03,640 --> 02:22:05,720 Speaker 1: mentioned he is a really safe player. I think he's 2889 02:22:05,720 --> 02:22:07,160 Speaker 1: gonna start right away in this league. By the way, 2890 02:22:07,160 --> 02:22:09,200 Speaker 1: I want to point out Jonah with jon by Jonah 2891 02:22:09,240 --> 02:22:11,760 Speaker 1: tolds n d t scatting this tweet from Ian rappaport 2892 02:22:12,160 --> 02:22:14,520 Speaker 1: Uh and he's like he listened to Paula Tino's question, 2893 02:22:14,720 --> 02:22:17,360 Speaker 1: why is l s U running back Darius Guy sliding? Well? 2894 02:22:17,440 --> 02:22:21,360 Speaker 1: This is Ian's answer. Sources describe him as immature, high maintenance. 2895 02:22:21,640 --> 02:22:24,359 Speaker 1: His visits did not go well. Some incidents in college 2896 02:22:24,360 --> 02:22:27,600 Speaker 1: teams found out about that we're not previously reported, So 2897 02:22:27,680 --> 02:22:30,960 Speaker 1: that's that's the word there. How about offensive tackles, we 2898 02:22:31,040 --> 02:22:33,120 Speaker 1: saw Connor Williams I think for a little bit further 2899 02:22:33,160 --> 02:22:36,520 Speaker 1: than I thought he would. Jonah, what offensive tackles do 2900 02:22:36,560 --> 02:22:38,560 Speaker 1: you still like that are out there? I'm a little 2901 02:22:38,560 --> 02:22:41,400 Speaker 1: bit uh in favor of Jamarco Jones. I think he's 2902 02:22:41,400 --> 02:22:43,480 Speaker 1: just a very solid player out there at tackle. Who 2903 02:22:43,480 --> 02:22:46,240 Speaker 1: do you like from that class that's left. Yeah, I'll 2904 02:22:46,280 --> 02:22:48,280 Speaker 1: mention Connor Williams really quick. I think he's one of 2905 02:22:48,280 --> 02:22:49,920 Speaker 1: the best value picks of the draft. I had him 2906 02:22:49,920 --> 02:22:51,920 Speaker 1: ahead of Mike mcglench and Connor Williams, who both in 2907 02:22:51,920 --> 02:22:54,039 Speaker 1: the first round. And if you remember right before the 2908 02:22:54,080 --> 02:22:59,200 Speaker 1: costball season, this guy, Connor williamsensis a consensus top five 2909 02:22:59,240 --> 02:23:03,080 Speaker 1: pick in Montdraft before seventeen costtball season. So this is 2910 02:23:03,120 --> 02:23:04,640 Speaker 1: the guy that I think is a great Dill pick 2911 02:23:04,640 --> 02:23:06,160 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Show with the fifty who can plug 2912 02:23:06,160 --> 02:23:07,920 Speaker 1: in and play and let's go on the right tackle, 2913 02:23:07,959 --> 02:23:10,840 Speaker 1: So great pick for them. I think I'm ruthur pri offensive. 2914 02:23:10,840 --> 02:23:13,240 Speaker 1: The tackle classes really fallen as far. We've seen a 2915 02:23:13,240 --> 02:23:15,400 Speaker 1: lot of guards so early, but I think the offen tackle, 2916 02:23:15,440 --> 02:23:18,480 Speaker 1: the Kyral Crosby, Jamarco Jones to Cuma or core for 2917 02:23:18,760 --> 02:23:20,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to find a starting offensive tackle 2918 02:23:20,760 --> 02:23:22,960 Speaker 1: in the third round. And I probably would have said 2919 02:23:22,959 --> 02:23:25,160 Speaker 1: that was coming into the second round. And by y 2920 02:23:25,240 --> 02:23:27,560 Speaker 1: Darius Guys is off the board to the Redskins Jonas, 2921 02:23:27,600 --> 02:23:30,520 Speaker 1: so they have their uh guy that's gonna tote the 2922 02:23:30,520 --> 02:23:32,000 Speaker 1: ball for them now for the rest of the year. 2923 02:23:33,200 --> 02:23:35,640 Speaker 1: I gotta go ahead. I'm sorry, Yeah, I got a 2924 02:23:35,680 --> 02:23:38,640 Speaker 1: puzzler for you. I mean, we have all seen the 2925 02:23:38,720 --> 02:23:43,400 Speaker 1: stories and the headlines positive and negative about Orlando Brown. 2926 02:23:43,840 --> 02:23:47,280 Speaker 1: Zeus junior, and when we were to combine, we are 2927 02:23:47,360 --> 02:23:50,440 Speaker 1: all kinds of things like, okay, as high as second round, 2928 02:23:50,440 --> 02:23:52,640 Speaker 1: but then he has a horrible combine. All of a sudden, 2929 02:23:52,640 --> 02:23:55,360 Speaker 1: there's some people saying he's fifth round, and ah, you know, 2930 02:23:55,400 --> 02:23:58,200 Speaker 1: I wouldn't touch him at all all over the map 2931 02:23:58,240 --> 02:24:01,640 Speaker 1: on this guy? What what is your perspective? And as 2932 02:24:01,640 --> 02:24:04,879 Speaker 1: we continue to go through these picks, is this somebody 2933 02:24:04,920 --> 02:24:07,360 Speaker 1: who you think is is being considered by I don't 2934 02:24:07,360 --> 02:24:09,440 Speaker 1: know half the teams, or are there really a bunch 2935 02:24:09,480 --> 02:24:12,400 Speaker 1: of teams that wiped him off their board? Yeah? I 2936 02:24:12,400 --> 02:24:14,200 Speaker 1: think you probably right. I think he might be off 2937 02:24:14,200 --> 02:24:16,600 Speaker 1: the board for some teams just because how badly he tested. 2938 02:24:16,879 --> 02:24:18,560 Speaker 1: I know it sounds harsh, but I mean somebody seems 2939 02:24:18,560 --> 02:24:20,720 Speaker 1: to have a light tresh thresholds these guys need to 2940 02:24:20,800 --> 02:24:23,240 Speaker 1: hit and Brown obviously did not hit those because he's one. 2941 02:24:23,280 --> 02:24:26,440 Speaker 1: But what worst combine testors in combine history. So I 2942 02:24:26,480 --> 02:24:28,200 Speaker 1: think he has to worry a little bit about dropping 2943 02:24:28,200 --> 02:24:30,680 Speaker 1: the days three at this point. But again, the offense 2944 02:24:30,680 --> 02:24:33,000 Speaker 1: Pacold round has how started yet. We just had you know, 2945 02:24:33,040 --> 02:24:35,360 Speaker 1: Connor Williams about the board. We haven't seen the Tyrell Crosby, 2946 02:24:35,440 --> 02:24:37,959 Speaker 1: the Jamaco Jones, the Oakahore Force. They haven't seen those 2947 02:24:37,959 --> 02:24:39,520 Speaker 1: guys go off yet. So Brown sold the chance to 2948 02:24:39,520 --> 02:24:41,680 Speaker 1: go here in the third round. But again you mentioned it. 2949 02:24:42,040 --> 02:24:44,080 Speaker 1: He's awesome team boards just because he didn't meet those 2950 02:24:44,120 --> 02:24:46,520 Speaker 1: at the light thresholds. Two guys, I want to touch 2951 02:24:46,560 --> 02:24:48,279 Speaker 1: on with you before we try to get your predictions 2952 02:24:48,280 --> 02:24:49,840 Speaker 1: to the two giant picks. And the pressure is on 2953 02:24:49,840 --> 02:24:52,400 Speaker 1: because your boy John Ledyard not nails these every single 2954 02:24:52,480 --> 02:24:55,080 Speaker 1: year when of your coworkers does. So I'm just warning 2955 02:24:55,120 --> 02:24:56,520 Speaker 1: you the pressure is on if you don't get him right, 2956 02:24:56,560 --> 02:24:59,840 Speaker 1: John's gonna make you hear about it. Um, they said, Rudolph, 2957 02:25:00,160 --> 02:25:02,280 Speaker 1: what do you think the landing spot is for him? 2958 02:25:02,360 --> 02:25:04,400 Speaker 1: Or maybe you think Kyle A. Letter and Mike White 2959 02:25:04,440 --> 02:25:05,959 Speaker 1: Mike go ahead of him. Your thoughts on where the 2960 02:25:05,959 --> 02:25:09,360 Speaker 1: next drop some spot is for QB. Well, I think 2961 02:25:09,400 --> 02:25:11,760 Speaker 1: we're getting very close to Mason rules, so spot maybe 2962 02:25:11,760 --> 02:25:16,119 Speaker 1: the very next pick. Pittsburgh Steelers Ben Roethlisberger a big quarterback, 2963 02:25:16,200 --> 02:25:19,200 Speaker 1: That's what Mason. Rudolph is, six five to thirty kind 2964 02:25:19,200 --> 02:25:21,480 Speaker 1: of big looking quarterback with a big arm. He could 2965 02:25:21,480 --> 02:25:23,360 Speaker 1: be a good replaced for brend Roelisberg. One on the 2966 02:25:23,400 --> 02:25:25,920 Speaker 1: road if he can don't sit behind for a couple 2967 02:25:25,920 --> 02:25:28,440 Speaker 1: of years. As it opened, Rolsburg has been contlained retirement 2968 02:25:28,440 --> 02:25:29,680 Speaker 1: for a couple of years. I was I think Pittsburgh 2969 02:25:29,680 --> 02:25:32,000 Speaker 1: needs to start looking for a replacement, so I looked 2970 02:25:32,000 --> 02:25:34,640 Speaker 1: for that there. I'd also look at for the Giants. 2971 02:25:34,760 --> 02:25:37,080 Speaker 1: The Giants have been looking for have been connected to 2972 02:25:37,080 --> 02:25:40,160 Speaker 1: the Mason Rudolph for a while of this draft process process. 2973 02:25:40,160 --> 02:25:42,600 Speaker 1: They have two picks, and I think they could they could, 2974 02:25:42,640 --> 02:25:44,080 Speaker 1: you know, afford to spend one of those on a 2975 02:25:44,160 --> 02:25:46,160 Speaker 1: on a successor for Eli Manning hopefully all right, final 2976 02:25:46,200 --> 02:25:48,120 Speaker 1: one for me before the prediction. I'm sure Paul something 2977 02:25:48,160 --> 02:25:51,040 Speaker 1: else for you too. How about Maurice Hurst? Uh? Three 2978 02:25:51,040 --> 02:25:53,680 Speaker 1: techniques are so valuable in the NFL. I mean, look 2979 02:25:53,720 --> 02:25:56,360 Speaker 1: what Aaron Donald does. And I'm not saying marisharss Aaron Donald, 2980 02:25:56,400 --> 02:25:59,520 Speaker 1: but save body type, he's a penetrator. We don't know 2981 02:25:59,560 --> 02:26:01,560 Speaker 1: about the hard condition, what teams have him on and 2982 02:26:01,600 --> 02:26:03,720 Speaker 1: off the board. I know it's tough, but at what 2983 02:26:03,800 --> 02:26:05,440 Speaker 1: point do you think the team says, you know what, 2984 02:26:05,520 --> 02:26:08,120 Speaker 1: this guy is so darned talented, we gotta roll the 2985 02:26:08,160 --> 02:26:11,039 Speaker 1: dice on him here. Yeah, it is tough. Because from 2986 02:26:11,040 --> 02:26:13,560 Speaker 1: everything I've heard, it's a thickening of the heart. So 2987 02:26:13,640 --> 02:26:15,880 Speaker 1: it's something that if he gets surgery for it or 2988 02:26:15,920 --> 02:26:18,880 Speaker 1: he gets repaired, his falkers over don't builds a physical 2989 02:26:19,160 --> 02:26:20,600 Speaker 1: So I think the lots can I think the majority 2990 02:26:20,600 --> 02:26:23,080 Speaker 1: of teams. I'm saying teams have him off the board. 2991 02:26:23,440 --> 02:26:24,960 Speaker 1: So you're gonna be looking at him, probably the guy 2992 02:26:24,959 --> 02:26:27,119 Speaker 1: who's gonna flip the day three at this point, unless 2993 02:26:27,120 --> 02:26:29,959 Speaker 1: the king believes in him. There are four or five 2994 02:26:29,959 --> 02:26:31,400 Speaker 1: teams I'll have him on the board. If some king 2995 02:26:31,480 --> 02:26:33,440 Speaker 1: believes in him, he could go tonight. But again, I 2996 02:26:33,480 --> 02:26:35,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised to be falls to the day through 2997 02:26:35,520 --> 02:26:37,560 Speaker 1: the draft tomorrow. All Right, I'm gonna go way out 2998 02:26:37,560 --> 02:26:40,440 Speaker 1: of left field with a very generic question. So please, 2999 02:26:40,640 --> 02:26:42,760 Speaker 1: if you can't answer it, or if you just want 3000 02:26:42,760 --> 02:26:47,519 Speaker 1: to absolutely laugh, it's okay. Give me the one undrafted 3001 02:26:47,600 --> 02:26:50,800 Speaker 1: free agent that you just think, Hey, this guy's got 3002 02:26:50,800 --> 02:26:53,080 Speaker 1: no chance of being drafted, but people better keep an 3003 02:26:53,080 --> 02:26:55,320 Speaker 1: eye on him because this name is gonna be heard 3004 02:26:55,400 --> 02:26:59,400 Speaker 1: sometime during training camp. Oh man, that is a tough question. 3005 02:26:59,440 --> 02:27:01,720 Speaker 1: It is a tough I'll give you. I'll give you 3006 02:27:01,760 --> 02:27:03,840 Speaker 1: one name, and I think can really make some noise. 3007 02:27:03,959 --> 02:27:07,199 Speaker 1: And that's the guy named Vincent Smith from Limestone College 3008 02:27:07,680 --> 02:27:10,360 Speaker 1: would be that would be unknown where the heck is 3009 02:27:10,440 --> 02:27:14,640 Speaker 1: Limestone College is a highweight speed freak. He ran four 3010 02:27:14,680 --> 02:27:16,760 Speaker 1: or three in the four four games in the vertical. 3011 02:27:17,080 --> 02:27:18,879 Speaker 1: This guy can make plays. I think he can make 3012 02:27:19,120 --> 02:27:20,680 Speaker 1: You can make noise in some training camp. I don't 3013 02:27:20,760 --> 02:27:22,520 Speaker 1: just gonna make a ross or not. But this guy 3014 02:27:22,560 --> 02:27:24,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna see him on Twitter and on social media 3015 02:27:24,680 --> 02:27:26,680 Speaker 1: saying Okay, this guys make its noise in some training 3016 02:27:26,680 --> 02:27:28,840 Speaker 1: camp as an invite or a preseason free agents for sure. 3017 02:27:28,959 --> 02:27:31,720 Speaker 1: What position does he play? He plays a wide receiver. 3018 02:27:31,920 --> 02:27:33,400 Speaker 1: He's the guy who can really make plays as a 3019 02:27:33,440 --> 02:27:36,000 Speaker 1: catch point. He's an ex receiver who can lose a 3020 02:27:36,040 --> 02:27:39,640 Speaker 1: red zone threat plays down the field. He's really versatile. 3021 02:27:39,760 --> 02:27:44,360 Speaker 1: How big four? WHOA he's a He's gonna be at 3022 02:27:44,400 --> 02:27:47,800 Speaker 1: a training camp all right. I don't think there's any 3023 02:27:47,879 --> 02:27:50,960 Speaker 1: question about it. And uh quite frankly, I think you know, 3024 02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:54,680 Speaker 1: the Giants maybe looking to add some undrafted rookie wide 3025 02:27:54,680 --> 02:27:57,360 Speaker 1: receivers a free agents in particular to add to the 3026 02:27:57,360 --> 02:27:59,520 Speaker 1: competition at the back of the depth. Chard Steelers take 3027 02:27:59,520 --> 02:28:02,480 Speaker 1: a wider Seever, James Washington has been a popular wide 3028 02:28:02,480 --> 02:28:05,039 Speaker 1: receiver class in Round three, and I know Jona do 3029 02:28:05,080 --> 02:28:07,040 Speaker 1: some stuff for the Cowboys, and Cowboy fans are freaking out. 3030 02:28:07,080 --> 02:28:10,600 Speaker 1: They haven't gotten their wide receiver. Uh. Final question for 3031 02:28:10,640 --> 02:28:13,200 Speaker 1: your top around three. Give me your two predictions for 3032 02:28:13,280 --> 02:28:16,800 Speaker 1: the Giants picks at UH sixty six overall and sixty 3033 02:28:16,879 --> 02:28:21,520 Speaker 1: nine overall. All right, I'm not gonna pretty the order, 3034 02:28:21,959 --> 02:28:23,760 Speaker 1: but I'll preak the players. That's fine. I think it's 3035 02:28:23,760 --> 02:28:26,280 Speaker 1: gonna be Lorenzo Carter and I think it's gonna be 3036 02:28:26,280 --> 02:28:30,640 Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph. I love Carter because he's he's one of 3037 02:28:30,680 --> 02:28:33,640 Speaker 1: my two, but but I can't see them draft in 3038 02:28:33,680 --> 02:28:35,760 Speaker 1: the quarterback. So I'm off the board on that second 3039 02:28:35,800 --> 02:28:38,959 Speaker 1: one by you, Jonah. Great stuff. We appreciate in time. 3040 02:28:38,959 --> 02:28:40,320 Speaker 1: I know it's a busy night. We'll talk to you 3041 02:28:40,400 --> 02:28:44,520 Speaker 1: after the draft, right, pal, Well, I appreciate Jonah tells 3042 02:28:44,560 --> 02:28:46,160 Speaker 1: N D. T. Scotting. You find him on Twitter. Does 3043 02:28:46,240 --> 02:28:48,920 Speaker 1: great work on the draft. Wonderful job by him. We 3044 02:28:48,920 --> 02:28:50,800 Speaker 1: thank him for joining us. Turn on a big Blue 3045 02:28:50,840 --> 02:28:53,960 Speaker 1: kickoff Live. And I mentioned James Washington to the Steelers 3046 02:28:54,000 --> 02:28:57,360 Speaker 1: before that, Darius Guys to the Redskins and Isaiah Oliver 3047 02:28:58,000 --> 02:29:00,680 Speaker 1: to the Falcons. And I think when we started the 3048 02:29:00,680 --> 02:29:03,000 Speaker 1: show today, paulf I would have told you Isaiah Oliver 3049 02:29:03,080 --> 02:29:04,920 Speaker 1: and Darius guys will go back to back. You wouldn't 3050 02:29:04,920 --> 02:29:06,840 Speaker 1: be surprised if I told you they went back to 3051 02:29:06,879 --> 02:29:08,920 Speaker 1: back at fifty eight and fifty nine. I think he'd 3052 02:29:08,920 --> 02:29:11,520 Speaker 1: probably be a little bit surprised. Yeah, no, no, for sure. 3053 02:29:11,760 --> 02:29:14,119 Speaker 1: And I will tell you I'm getting some people feeding 3054 02:29:14,160 --> 02:29:16,640 Speaker 1: back here on Twitter at Giants w F A N 3055 02:29:17,120 --> 02:29:20,960 Speaker 1: suggesting that Crosby uh the Orgon tackle should be on 3056 02:29:21,000 --> 02:29:23,920 Speaker 1: the Giants board at the top of the third. I'm 3057 02:29:23,959 --> 02:29:25,960 Speaker 1: still of the belief he's not gonna make it there. 3058 02:29:26,360 --> 02:29:28,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I know we have what five picks left 3059 02:29:28,680 --> 02:29:31,880 Speaker 1: in this round five total, including the Browns at the 3060 02:29:31,920 --> 02:29:34,199 Speaker 1: top of a round three. I I got a hunch 3061 02:29:34,240 --> 02:29:36,320 Speaker 1: he's not gonna make it there. I think you've got 3062 02:29:36,360 --> 02:29:39,800 Speaker 1: a better chance because because let's face it, the tackles 3063 02:29:40,000 --> 02:29:42,360 Speaker 1: have not really gone and all of a sudden they're 3064 02:29:42,360 --> 02:29:44,400 Speaker 1: going to go. I got a hunch he's not gonna 3065 02:29:44,440 --> 02:29:47,040 Speaker 1: be there, So that's why I'm taking the linebacker in 3066 02:29:47,120 --> 02:29:49,360 Speaker 1: the corner. I also think there's really good value there. 3067 02:29:49,560 --> 02:29:52,840 Speaker 1: But if Crosby's there now, I'm gonna have to take him, 3068 02:29:52,840 --> 02:29:56,320 Speaker 1: and I'll probably take him and Carter. To be perfectly honest, 3069 02:29:56,320 --> 02:29:59,520 Speaker 1: if I could get my choice of two, I just 3070 02:29:59,560 --> 02:30:02,080 Speaker 1: don't think Cross He's gonna make it. If Carlton Davis 3071 02:30:02,160 --> 02:30:04,879 Speaker 1: is there, I'm making the pick. He's on my team. Okay, 3072 02:30:05,040 --> 02:30:08,320 Speaker 1: I gotta hunch, I gotta hunt. Something's up there. Maybe 3073 02:30:08,760 --> 02:30:13,240 Speaker 1: we don't so far. I'm gonna say that the NFL 3074 02:30:13,320 --> 02:30:16,680 Speaker 1: folks by dropping a guy this far from late in 3075 02:30:16,720 --> 02:30:20,039 Speaker 1: the first round, I'm gonna say they have something going on. 3076 02:30:20,600 --> 02:30:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna shy away and he passed rushers attract your attention? 3077 02:30:24,480 --> 02:30:27,320 Speaker 1: How about Dran how about Hand the kid out of 3078 02:30:27,400 --> 02:30:30,560 Speaker 1: Oakland Kid, Alabama. He's a three or four defensive lineman. 3079 02:30:30,600 --> 02:30:32,920 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on him? Is he in the mix here? Well? 3080 02:30:33,160 --> 02:30:37,080 Speaker 1: How about Josh Sweat out of Florida State? How about 3081 02:30:37,080 --> 02:30:40,959 Speaker 1: open hand hands? Interesting? I had him as I have 3082 02:30:41,040 --> 02:30:43,240 Speaker 1: him as a left defensive end, projecting in a four 3083 02:30:43,400 --> 02:30:47,080 Speaker 1: three or maybe even playing some defensive tackle. He's also 3084 02:30:47,120 --> 02:30:49,199 Speaker 1: coming off an m CL. I think he's a defensive 3085 02:30:49,280 --> 02:30:50,960 Speaker 1: end of the three four and the Giants don't have 3086 02:30:52,640 --> 02:30:55,080 Speaker 1: the Giants don't have a second five technique and they 3087 02:30:55,080 --> 02:30:56,880 Speaker 1: well not they don't. They don't run the five technique, 3088 02:30:56,920 --> 02:30:58,920 Speaker 1: but a second three or four defensive end. He plays 3089 02:30:58,959 --> 02:31:01,240 Speaker 1: three four Abama. Yeah, I don't think that's what he's 3090 02:31:01,240 --> 02:31:02,960 Speaker 1: gonna play in the NFL. I've seen a play, so 3091 02:31:03,040 --> 02:31:04,200 Speaker 1: I know he can do it, which is why I 3092 02:31:05,520 --> 02:31:07,160 Speaker 1: don't know about in the NFL. You don't think he's 3093 02:31:07,160 --> 02:31:10,240 Speaker 1: big enough. I don't think so. You might be right? Um, 3094 02:31:10,320 --> 02:31:14,560 Speaker 1: how about obaniah Okaranquo? Does he gets you excited at all? Here? Uh? 3095 02:31:14,680 --> 02:31:17,080 Speaker 1: You know what you're gonna You're gonna laugh here at 3096 02:31:17,080 --> 02:31:19,520 Speaker 1: six to two fifty three. I got him listed as 3097 02:31:19,520 --> 02:31:22,720 Speaker 1: an outside linebacker in A four three. He played stand 3098 02:31:22,800 --> 02:31:25,360 Speaker 1: up three four. He's an edge rusher. I think he's 3099 02:31:25,400 --> 02:31:27,240 Speaker 1: an edg rusher into three four to be honest with you, 3100 02:31:27,640 --> 02:31:31,840 Speaker 1: in my opinion, again, he runs four seven seven, which 3101 02:31:31,879 --> 02:31:34,080 Speaker 1: is not great for a pass rusher. I was like, 3102 02:31:34,200 --> 02:31:36,040 Speaker 1: that's my problem. You haven't to have his three cone 3103 02:31:36,040 --> 02:31:39,680 Speaker 1: in front of miny chance three cone? What do I 3104 02:31:39,760 --> 02:31:46,720 Speaker 1: have here? Seven? That seven oh nine at the Pro day, 3105 02:31:46,920 --> 02:31:50,879 Speaker 1: which isn't great, that's not I'm just I can't I 3106 02:31:50,920 --> 02:31:52,120 Speaker 1: can't be with you on that one here where you 3107 02:31:52,160 --> 02:31:54,879 Speaker 1: got the Jaguars picking at sixty one. Again, the Giants 3108 02:31:54,920 --> 02:31:58,080 Speaker 1: are next at sixty six. I don't know. I don't 3109 02:31:58,080 --> 02:32:01,240 Speaker 1: know my Jaguars. But when he as Brunell's Mark Brunell 3110 02:32:01,920 --> 02:32:05,360 Speaker 1: j U wide receiver l s U who was a 3111 02:32:05,400 --> 02:32:09,920 Speaker 1: fringe first round projection or early second round projection projection, 3112 02:32:10,000 --> 02:32:12,600 Speaker 1: I did not like DJ Truck that high. I didn't 3113 02:32:12,640 --> 02:32:15,240 Speaker 1: like him that much people did. I think he's gone 3114 02:32:15,240 --> 02:32:18,000 Speaker 1: exactly where he's supposed to go. Um, what boy? Wide 3115 02:32:18,000 --> 02:32:20,199 Speaker 1: receivers have just flown off the board in the second 3116 02:32:20,280 --> 02:32:22,080 Speaker 1: round here, Paul, Yeah, I want to go through him 3117 02:32:22,080 --> 02:32:23,920 Speaker 1: real quick, all the guys that have going off the board, 3118 02:32:23,959 --> 02:32:26,720 Speaker 1: because there's been a lot of them. To me, the 3119 02:32:26,760 --> 02:32:29,600 Speaker 1: best wide receiver left and I don't think it's really 3120 02:32:29,640 --> 02:32:32,720 Speaker 1: close either, as I get the same round from Notre Dame. 3121 02:32:33,000 --> 02:32:36,160 Speaker 1: I like Michael Gallup better than him. Okay, well you know, 3122 02:32:36,360 --> 02:32:38,120 Speaker 1: but I think st Brown and him are definitely the 3123 02:32:38,160 --> 02:32:40,880 Speaker 1: next best to Uh. Then you get to the the 3124 02:32:42,000 --> 02:32:45,120 Speaker 1: day Shawn Hamilton's at a Penn State. You get to 3125 02:32:45,160 --> 02:32:47,800 Speaker 1: the you know Deon Kane is still there. Yeah, I'm 3126 02:32:47,800 --> 02:32:49,680 Speaker 1: not a huge Deon King guy. All right, And you 3127 02:32:49,720 --> 02:32:51,920 Speaker 1: have Trey Kwan Smith at a unit as in Central Florida. 3128 02:32:51,920 --> 02:32:54,480 Speaker 1: If you like him, then you mentioned Hamilton's from Penn 3129 02:32:54,480 --> 02:32:57,039 Speaker 1: State who have a slot guy though, really good route runner, 3130 02:32:57,440 --> 02:33:00,879 Speaker 1: very good possession receiver. He's a guy I on a 3131 02:33:00,959 --> 02:33:03,640 Speaker 1: third and four, he'll get you five. He'll get it, 3132 02:33:03,920 --> 02:33:06,560 Speaker 1: he'll get you five. So d J. Chark, he's one 3133 02:33:06,560 --> 02:33:09,040 Speaker 1: of those guys. And here's the funny thing. And guys 3134 02:33:09,080 --> 02:33:11,240 Speaker 1: like DJ Chark confused the hell out of me. He 3135 02:33:11,440 --> 02:33:13,680 Speaker 1: was a four three four, Paul. I watched him at 3136 02:33:13,680 --> 02:33:17,240 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl and one on one drills. You know, 3137 02:33:17,760 --> 02:33:20,200 Speaker 1: with one on one drills against defensive backs, what an 3138 02:33:20,200 --> 02:33:23,080 Speaker 1: advantage that is for the wide receiver. You could not 3139 02:33:23,120 --> 02:33:26,360 Speaker 1: get open? And he was a four three four. Well, 3140 02:33:26,400 --> 02:33:29,119 Speaker 1: you know what's interesting. I wrote about him, John I liked. 3141 02:33:29,200 --> 02:33:33,119 Speaker 1: I like his yak yardage and his quickness. Uh and 3142 02:33:33,120 --> 02:33:35,520 Speaker 1: and I thought that his straight on separation was there. 3143 02:33:35,600 --> 02:33:39,080 Speaker 1: But the things that I knocked them down on lean okay, 3144 02:33:39,120 --> 02:33:43,320 Speaker 1: because he's six a body catcher, doesn't reach out and 3145 02:33:43,360 --> 02:33:47,640 Speaker 1: catch with his hands, and limited route running at L 3146 02:33:47,800 --> 02:33:50,400 Speaker 1: s U, which is part of what you're talking about. 3147 02:33:50,440 --> 02:33:52,840 Speaker 1: Why he couldn't joke guys because he didn't run a 3148 02:33:52,879 --> 02:33:55,600 Speaker 1: lot of complex routes with the Tigers lack of separation 3149 02:33:55,680 --> 02:33:57,040 Speaker 1: at the top of the route and the more I 3150 02:33:57,240 --> 02:33:59,720 Speaker 1: we've done this over the years, Paul, when I look 3151 02:33:59,760 --> 02:34:03,480 Speaker 1: at wide receivers, the most important thing to me, it's 3152 02:34:03,520 --> 02:34:07,000 Speaker 1: not high point balls, it's not contested catches. It's the 3153 02:34:07,040 --> 02:34:09,640 Speaker 1: guy at the top of the rout that can get separation. 3154 02:34:10,120 --> 02:34:12,920 Speaker 1: And d J. Chark can't do that. Guy like Anthony 3155 02:34:12,959 --> 02:34:15,640 Speaker 1: Miller and Calvin Ridley, d J. Moore, they can do that. 3156 02:34:16,480 --> 02:34:18,280 Speaker 1: This guy can't. The vikings are on the board here. 3157 02:34:18,320 --> 02:34:20,840 Speaker 1: Let's see they select with their pick at sixty second 3158 02:34:20,879 --> 02:34:22,959 Speaker 1: over and there were just three picks away from the Giants. 3159 02:34:22,959 --> 02:34:26,199 Speaker 1: There's another tackle, Brian O'Neil, the offensive tackle. I'm actually 3160 02:34:26,200 --> 02:34:29,280 Speaker 1: surprised he lasted this long with his athletic profile. He 3161 02:34:29,360 --> 02:34:31,120 Speaker 1: tested really well at the combine. I think he's a 3162 02:34:31,160 --> 02:34:35,520 Speaker 1: converted tight tight end because I'm not mistakeble and you know, 3163 02:34:35,600 --> 02:34:37,680 Speaker 1: his tapes not great, but he's a guy that has 3164 02:34:38,160 --> 02:34:40,720 Speaker 1: the traits you're looking for at six six, just over 3165 02:34:40,760 --> 02:34:43,800 Speaker 1: three hundred pounds to be a starting left tackle one day. 3166 02:34:43,879 --> 02:34:47,000 Speaker 1: He's just not ready to be a starting left tackle today. Well, 3167 02:34:47,080 --> 02:34:50,760 Speaker 1: he doesn't have the power, and he doesn't anchor very 3168 02:34:50,800 --> 02:34:52,680 Speaker 1: well ed. He's a he's a good athlete, but he's 3169 02:34:52,680 --> 02:34:54,680 Speaker 1: not a great line. Yes, Like they just showed him 3170 02:34:54,720 --> 02:34:56,720 Speaker 1: run an end of round for a touchdown and another one. 3171 02:34:56,959 --> 02:34:59,039 Speaker 1: They just showed two ender rounds for a touchdown on 3172 02:34:59,080 --> 02:35:01,400 Speaker 1: the on the network. Tell as your broadcast. You know, 3173 02:35:01,480 --> 02:35:03,560 Speaker 1: if you're if you're an offensive lineman and you get 3174 02:35:03,640 --> 02:35:06,240 Speaker 1: drafted in the NFL, you'd like to think the highlight 3175 02:35:06,320 --> 02:35:09,199 Speaker 1: would be a pancake or a block of any kind. 3176 02:35:09,360 --> 02:35:12,520 Speaker 1: Perhaps what they showed him running with the ball for 3177 02:35:12,640 --> 02:35:15,879 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. It shows you what a terrific athlete he is. 3178 02:35:15,920 --> 02:35:19,680 Speaker 1: That's great. I love that, But I was not a 3179 02:35:19,680 --> 02:35:21,720 Speaker 1: fan of his. I thought he was probably gonna go 3180 02:35:21,840 --> 02:35:24,600 Speaker 1: third round despite his athleticism. Yeah, I had him behind 3181 02:35:24,680 --> 02:35:27,039 Speaker 1: Crosby to be honest, Well, I think Crosby is a 3182 02:35:27,040 --> 02:35:30,000 Speaker 1: better project. But I assumed, much like the Raiders did 3183 02:35:30,000 --> 02:35:32,440 Speaker 1: for Colton Miller, then NFL team would look at the 3184 02:35:32,480 --> 02:35:34,520 Speaker 1: measurables and say, oh, we gotta get this guy. But 3185 02:35:34,760 --> 02:35:37,200 Speaker 1: he dropped. I think this is about where he belong. 3186 02:35:37,240 --> 02:35:39,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he was overdrafted by too much at 3187 02:35:39,000 --> 02:35:40,520 Speaker 1: the end of round two. I think this is about 3188 02:35:40,760 --> 02:35:42,760 Speaker 1: where he probably deserved to go. All right, we got 3189 02:35:42,760 --> 02:35:44,560 Speaker 1: a few minutes before the Giants pick. Let's squeeze in 3190 02:35:44,560 --> 02:35:46,600 Speaker 1: a couple of calls, Paul, Um, we got three guys 3191 02:35:46,600 --> 02:35:48,000 Speaker 1: in the line. I want to get you in.

Um, I'm a cal fan, girlfriends of Caligrad, 3200 02:36:14,320 --> 02:36:18,440 Speaker 1: best friends that professor up there, so I have some 3201 02:36:18,560 --> 02:36:20,879 Speaker 1: knowledge of him. And you know, he was a transfer, 3202 02:36:21,720 --> 02:36:23,600 Speaker 1: he was a Spring transfer, and then he made a 3203 02:36:23,680 --> 02:36:27,920 Speaker 1: captain immediately. Yes, uh so he's got great leadership skills. 3204 02:36:28,160 --> 02:36:30,680 Speaker 1: And I saw him play against Stanford and in terrible weather, 3205 02:36:31,840 --> 02:36:35,000 Speaker 1: very cold, rainy, foggy day up there in the Bay Area, 3206 02:36:35,680 --> 02:36:38,360 Speaker 1: and um, you hit a quiet four yard game and 3207 02:36:38,480 --> 02:36:41,560 Speaker 1: a couple of touchdowns and um, of all the fans 3208 02:36:41,560 --> 02:36:45,720 Speaker 1: that are concerned about him transferring from that air raid 3209 02:36:45,720 --> 02:36:49,640 Speaker 1: type of offense to the NFL, Baker Mayfield has to 3210 02:36:49,680 --> 02:36:52,680 Speaker 1: do it. Uh, Pat Mahomes has to do it. So 3211 02:36:52,760 --> 02:36:55,160 Speaker 1: that type of offense is coming to the NFL and 3212 02:36:55,160 --> 02:36:58,840 Speaker 1: you're seeing more of that integrated into what they do. 3213 02:36:59,520 --> 02:37:03,400 Speaker 1: Even Kevin Jilbride threw the ball around like that out 3214 02:37:03,400 --> 02:37:06,279 Speaker 1: of the shotgun back into days and we're winning Super Bowls. 3215 02:37:06,560 --> 02:37:10,400 Speaker 1: Different system, go ahead, I I just had different system. 3216 02:37:10,440 --> 02:37:12,280 Speaker 1: And you know the spread he ran a cal is 3217 02:37:12,360 --> 02:37:15,040 Speaker 1: very different than the running shooting, no question. But Kevin 3218 02:37:15,080 --> 02:37:18,039 Speaker 1: did like to throw a deep yes, absolutely right, right, 3219 02:37:18,040 --> 02:37:19,480 Speaker 1: but but it goes chuck out with some of the 3220 02:37:19,520 --> 02:37:22,160 Speaker 1: stilman I think called I did. There's a great game 3221 02:37:22,160 --> 02:37:24,800 Speaker 1: on YouTube, and I think that game against Texas when 3222 02:37:24,840 --> 02:37:28,160 Speaker 1: he was throwing to the sideline and deep pass into 3223 02:37:28,200 --> 02:37:31,000 Speaker 1: the sideline and being very accurate, very reminiscent of that 3224 02:37:31,040 --> 02:37:33,959 Speaker 1: throw that Eli made to Mario Manning hamp You know, 3225 02:37:34,040 --> 02:37:37,640 Speaker 1: Pat Shermer, the coach, the coach here made very specific 3226 02:37:37,720 --> 02:37:40,160 Speaker 1: points when talking about Davis Webb over the course of 3227 02:37:40,200 --> 02:37:42,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of months since he's gotten here. He 3228 02:37:43,160 --> 02:37:45,800 Speaker 1: always says it every time he praises Davis Webb about 3229 02:37:45,840 --> 02:37:51,160 Speaker 1: his strong arm. He can make he can make every throw. Remember, 3230 02:37:51,160 --> 02:37:52,840 Speaker 1: he was a great hockey player in high school. Yes 3231 02:37:52,840 --> 02:37:56,119 Speaker 1: he was. Oh, he watches hockey here at the facility 3232 02:37:56,320 --> 02:37:59,320 Speaker 1: every day. He's he's he's eating, he's lunched, he's got 3233 02:37:59,400 --> 02:38:01,880 Speaker 1: NHL at work on in the lunch room. I mean, 3234 02:38:01,959 --> 02:38:05,080 Speaker 1: the guy loves his hockey. Yeah, and you know they 3235 02:38:05,120 --> 02:38:07,840 Speaker 1: said he was a twelve hour day um student athletes 3236 02:38:08,160 --> 02:38:11,560 Speaker 1: is Derek cal too, So that was the background on him. 3237 02:38:11,600 --> 02:38:13,560 Speaker 1: And he also has the tie that Baker Mayfield. I 3238 02:38:13,560 --> 02:38:18,119 Speaker 1: mean he beat up Baker Mayfield on Mayfield and then 3239 02:38:18,160 --> 02:38:20,080 Speaker 1: Mahomes beat him out when he was injured. And then, 3240 02:38:20,320 --> 02:38:22,160 Speaker 1: like I said, he had that extra eligibility, and he 3241 02:38:22,200 --> 02:38:24,320 Speaker 1: obviously has the smart Baker Mayfield was also a walk 3242 02:38:24,360 --> 02:38:26,040 Speaker 1: on freshman. I'm not going to make too much out 3243 02:38:26,080 --> 02:38:29,680 Speaker 1: of that. No riding and seven quarterbacks at a time, 3244 02:38:29,840 --> 02:38:32,920 Speaker 1: of course. Yeah. So you know, but you know, I 3245 02:38:32,920 --> 02:38:34,960 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be a great player. You know, hopefully 3246 02:38:34,959 --> 02:38:38,240 Speaker 1: you're transition. When Eli decided to hang it up, I 3247 02:38:38,240 --> 02:38:41,000 Speaker 1: still think he's got gas in the tank. That team 3248 02:38:41,080 --> 02:38:43,680 Speaker 1: last year was terrible that he was playing with guys 3249 02:38:43,720 --> 02:38:46,039 Speaker 1: that are wide receivers that we got off the street, 3250 02:38:46,640 --> 02:38:49,560 Speaker 1: and uh, the offensive line was a mess. And we 3251 02:38:49,600 --> 02:38:50,959 Speaker 1: have a long way to go, I think before we're 3252 02:38:51,000 --> 02:38:55,600 Speaker 1: back into um consideration for any titles or divisions. But um, 3253 02:38:55,640 --> 02:38:57,160 Speaker 1: we're on the right path here and I think we 3254 02:38:57,200 --> 02:39:02,120 Speaker 1: can transition uh eli to um David's weft, just like 3255 02:39:02,160 --> 02:39:05,000 Speaker 1: they the Green Bay Packers day Brett Farve to uh 3256 02:39:05,560 --> 02:39:08,320 Speaker 1: to Rodgers. Appreciate, appreciate the thought. I just want to 3257 02:39:08,400 --> 02:39:11,520 Speaker 1: let you know Carlton Davis, the corner out of Auburn 3258 02:39:11,640 --> 02:39:13,680 Speaker 1: just went to the Bucceteers. That's why I put my 3259 02:39:13,720 --> 02:39:17,320 Speaker 1: fist on the table pick number sixty three, just so 3260 02:39:17,440 --> 02:39:19,760 Speaker 1: you know he was my guy there. I appreciate the call, 3261 02:39:19,840 --> 02:39:22,600 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, all right, Uh, I think Johnny 3262 02:39:22,680 --> 02:39:24,680 Speaker 1: or j J Natal let's go to Johnny first in 3263 02:39:24,720 --> 02:39:28,360 Speaker 1: New Jersey, talk about se Kwon Barky. What's up, Johnny? Hey, 3264 02:39:28,760 --> 02:39:31,440 Speaker 1: let me ask you us something we have sa Kwan 3265 02:39:31,520 --> 02:39:33,840 Speaker 1: when we picked that second and I know the shelf 3266 02:39:33,879 --> 02:39:37,440 Speaker 1: life for running backs is kind of short. Do you think, 3267 02:39:37,840 --> 02:39:41,720 Speaker 1: um the Jets, if what's his name? If Donald was 3268 02:39:41,800 --> 02:39:43,720 Speaker 1: playing in ten years and Sa Kwan has done in 3269 02:39:43,800 --> 02:39:46,280 Speaker 1: five years? Do you think the pick is worth it? 3270 02:39:46,400 --> 02:39:49,240 Speaker 1: Even though the shelf life for running backs is so short? 3271 02:39:49,440 --> 02:39:51,160 Speaker 1: What did the Giants do in the five years they 3272 02:39:51,160 --> 02:39:53,280 Speaker 1: have Sa Kwon Barkley on the roster? Do they win 3273 02:39:53,280 --> 02:39:57,080 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl? Then it's worth it? Right? And then 3274 02:39:57,240 --> 02:39:59,320 Speaker 1: I was also hoping if I could switch that into 3275 02:39:59,320 --> 02:40:02,240 Speaker 1: because back to just part up Davis Webb, I heard 3276 02:40:02,280 --> 02:40:04,959 Speaker 1: you looked good these last few days throwing, But would 3277 02:40:04,959 --> 02:40:07,280 Speaker 1: it be crazy if we looked at Rudolph right now 3278 02:40:07,360 --> 02:40:09,600 Speaker 1: because we still need a quarterback for the future and 3279 02:40:09,920 --> 02:40:13,240 Speaker 1: I dasn't that guy, Johnny, I don't sense that's what 3280 02:40:13,320 --> 02:40:16,120 Speaker 1: Dave Gentleman is gonna do. Poll doesn't either. Um. Could 3281 02:40:16,160 --> 02:40:18,000 Speaker 1: you make the argument that it makes sense? Yeah? I 3282 02:40:18,120 --> 02:40:19,880 Speaker 1: think you can make the argument you want to get 3283 02:40:19,879 --> 02:40:22,000 Speaker 1: as much back up for Eli as you can in 3284 02:40:22,040 --> 02:40:25,920 Speaker 1: terms of young quarterbacks. I just don't see it happening. Okay, Yeah, 3285 02:40:25,920 --> 02:40:27,720 Speaker 1: thank you guys so much, and keep on doing the 3286 02:40:27,760 --> 02:40:29,600 Speaker 1: South well then, thank you, Johnny. Appreciate all right. JJ 3287 02:40:29,680 --> 02:40:31,200 Speaker 1: has been holding too. Now I want to squeeze j 3288 02:40:31,320 --> 02:40:32,520 Speaker 1: j N because the Giant is gonna be in the 3289 02:40:32,560 --> 02:40:34,160 Speaker 1: clock in a couple of minutes. I want to make 3290 02:40:34,160 --> 02:40:35,720 Speaker 1: sure j J gets a shot. Go ahead, j J? 3291 02:40:37,160 --> 02:40:39,879 Speaker 1: All right, man, Hey, what's up guys? When I'm out 3292 02:40:39,879 --> 02:40:42,000 Speaker 1: here and therewith Mary and I'm a giant sham my 3293 02:40:42,080 --> 02:40:44,880 Speaker 1: mind from Jersey and I've been watching him since the 3294 02:40:44,959 --> 02:40:48,080 Speaker 1: Jim Bird and Lawrence Dallas days. But with that being said, no, 3295 02:40:48,720 --> 02:40:52,880 Speaker 1: I don't mind the pick and the decision to move 3296 02:40:52,920 --> 02:40:55,200 Speaker 1: were with Eli and all that. But you know, I 3297 02:40:55,240 --> 02:40:58,440 Speaker 1: look at a lot of different coaches and what's really 3298 02:40:58,520 --> 02:41:01,720 Speaker 1: interesting to me is at this new regime, what is 3299 02:41:01,720 --> 02:41:04,720 Speaker 1: going to be the team's attitude? Because by the time 3300 02:41:04,760 --> 02:41:07,640 Speaker 1: you drafted a player and you put your due diligence, 3301 02:41:08,000 --> 02:41:11,840 Speaker 1: you know what their weaknesses and you're playing to coach 3302 02:41:11,920 --> 02:41:16,920 Speaker 1: that weakness and the effectiveness of it. Since Betton McAdoo 3303 02:41:17,080 --> 02:41:21,680 Speaker 1: was so you know, lacking in that category. So you know, 3304 02:41:21,760 --> 02:41:26,160 Speaker 1: with the Pat Schimer and and uh Gentleman regime, you know, 3305 02:41:26,200 --> 02:41:30,480 Speaker 1: how are they gonna address installing a decent attitude and 3306 02:41:30,520 --> 02:41:32,640 Speaker 1: work ethic with all these young players? You know what 3307 02:41:32,680 --> 02:41:36,040 Speaker 1: I mean? Eli, He's got Davis and you know, and 3308 02:41:36,480 --> 02:41:38,280 Speaker 1: I feel good about Davis. I feel good about the 3309 02:41:38,360 --> 02:41:40,800 Speaker 1: roster and the direction in the picts and all that. 3310 02:41:41,080 --> 02:41:44,840 Speaker 1: I'm very satisfied. As a giant thing. I just want 3311 02:41:44,879 --> 02:41:48,120 Speaker 1: to know, you know, how do you think they'll do 3312 02:41:48,879 --> 02:41:53,320 Speaker 1: with coaching the weaknesses of the roster that we have. Well, 3313 02:41:53,400 --> 02:41:55,080 Speaker 1: part of the way they're going to do that is 3314 02:41:55,120 --> 02:41:57,840 Speaker 1: that they brought in about a dozen guys during the 3315 02:41:57,879 --> 02:42:00,480 Speaker 1: early part of the off season, whether via raid or 3316 02:42:00,600 --> 02:42:04,160 Speaker 1: free agency, and most of those guys have a connection 3317 02:42:04,240 --> 02:42:07,400 Speaker 1: to somebody on this coaching staff in one way or another. 3318 02:42:07,920 --> 02:42:10,720 Speaker 1: So we're talking about all guys who are high character 3319 02:42:10,800 --> 02:42:14,199 Speaker 1: guys and all guys who have worked with at least 3320 02:42:14,200 --> 02:42:16,840 Speaker 1: one member of the staff in one way, shape or form. 3321 02:42:16,879 --> 02:42:20,080 Speaker 1: So they will not only help translate and communicate what 3322 02:42:20,160 --> 02:42:22,560 Speaker 1: this new staff wants, but they can also set an 3323 02:42:22,600 --> 02:42:25,200 Speaker 1: example for some of the other guys as to what 3324 02:42:25,280 --> 02:42:27,600 Speaker 1: this staff wants. And I think that was a very 3325 02:42:27,600 --> 02:42:30,920 Speaker 1: intentional part of what Dave Gettleman did. Stewart sold are 3326 02:42:31,000 --> 02:42:33,040 Speaker 1: these veterans are gonna be a big, big part of 3327 02:42:33,120 --> 02:42:35,440 Speaker 1: trying to get that locker room back where he wants 3328 02:42:35,440 --> 02:42:37,160 Speaker 1: it j J. Thanks to the calling Man, we Gotta run. 3329 02:42:37,520 --> 02:42:40,400 Speaker 1: We are at pick sixty with the Oakland Raiders. The 3330 02:42:40,480 --> 02:42:43,200 Speaker 1: Giants will be on the clock. Next first pick of 3331 02:42:43,280 --> 02:42:45,800 Speaker 1: round number three, Taekwon Lewis just winning the final pick 3332 02:42:45,840 --> 02:42:49,720 Speaker 1: of round number two to the Indianapolis Colts. And I 3333 02:42:49,800 --> 02:42:52,520 Speaker 1: am now going to say, since Carlton Davis and that 3334 02:42:52,600 --> 02:42:55,440 Speaker 1: Tatino jinks continue since I mentioned him a few picks 3335 02:42:55,440 --> 02:42:58,240 Speaker 1: ago for the Giants, he has been taken by the 3336 02:42:58,280 --> 02:43:02,440 Speaker 1: Buccaneers at pick six the three. So I'm now going 3337 02:43:02,480 --> 02:43:08,840 Speaker 1: to switch off. Everybody quiet, don'tal anybody, Okay, So who 3338 02:43:08,840 --> 02:43:13,000 Speaker 1: do you want? Paul, I'm gonna go with Crosby and 3339 02:43:13,080 --> 02:43:16,879 Speaker 1: Carter for my two guys for the Giants early in 3340 02:43:16,920 --> 02:43:20,920 Speaker 1: the third round. But everybody keep it quiet or somebody's 3341 02:43:20,959 --> 02:43:22,840 Speaker 1: gonna steal. Don't mean to tell you who. I think 3342 02:43:22,840 --> 02:43:24,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna pick where I want them to pick, because 3343 02:43:24,480 --> 02:43:27,520 Speaker 1: I think they're they're they're two different answers. I'm gonna 3344 02:43:27,600 --> 02:43:30,039 Speaker 1: to who I would pick. Raiders are picking now, so 3345 02:43:30,080 --> 02:43:32,240 Speaker 1: you better be quick. I would pick. I would take 3346 02:43:32,280 --> 02:43:34,640 Speaker 1: Jamarco Jones, the offensive tackle on to Ohio State. I 3347 02:43:34,640 --> 02:43:37,480 Speaker 1: know you do like him, and I know card is 3348 02:43:37,520 --> 02:43:41,160 Speaker 1: a great athlete. I think this team needs another cover linebacker. 3349 02:43:41,360 --> 02:43:43,879 Speaker 1: I like Ogle Tree as a thumper. Um I like 3350 02:43:43,959 --> 02:43:46,200 Speaker 1: Fred Warner out of b y U as a linebacker. 3351 02:43:46,760 --> 02:43:50,080 Speaker 1: Those would be my two choices. I think they'll pick 3352 02:43:50,160 --> 02:43:53,520 Speaker 1: Crosby with the next pick in the third round, and 3353 02:43:54,640 --> 02:43:56,600 Speaker 1: none of the other cornerbacks. I'd love to find the 3354 02:43:56,640 --> 02:43:58,640 Speaker 1: corner here, Paul that I really like, but I don't. 3355 02:43:59,280 --> 02:44:02,959 Speaker 1: I don't see that I'm in love with. Alright, the 3356 02:44:03,000 --> 02:44:05,680 Speaker 1: Giants are on the clock, are on the clock. Alright, Alright, 3357 02:44:05,680 --> 02:44:07,879 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they're gonna pick Crosby and I'm gonna 3358 02:44:07,879 --> 02:44:10,120 Speaker 1: say they gonna pick Anthony Averett. How about that? Out 3359 02:44:10,120 --> 02:44:12,840 Speaker 1: of Alabama. Anthony Average is another guy who was on 3360 02:44:12,879 --> 02:44:16,440 Speaker 1: my radar, but but I have him just a notch 3361 02:44:16,520 --> 02:44:18,959 Speaker 1: down below the guys who were at this value fund. 3362 02:44:19,040 --> 02:44:21,720 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'm gonna go with Crosby and Averett. 3363 02:44:21,840 --> 02:44:23,360 Speaker 1: Those are the two guys I think they're gonna take. 3364 02:44:23,360 --> 02:44:27,160 Speaker 1: But I would like Joan Jamalco Jones and Fred Warner 3365 02:44:27,680 --> 02:44:29,640 Speaker 1: and the Raiders pick his in The Giants are on 3366 02:44:29,680 --> 02:44:32,600 Speaker 1: the clock here, uh pick sixty six and round number two. 3367 02:44:32,760 --> 02:44:35,480 Speaker 1: The Raiders will select to pick sixty five first. Obviously, 3368 02:44:35,800 --> 02:44:38,080 Speaker 1: then you have two selections before the Giants are up 3369 02:44:38,080 --> 02:44:40,240 Speaker 1: at sixty nine. That was the draft pick they got 3370 02:44:40,240 --> 02:44:42,959 Speaker 1: from Tampa Bay in the trade for Jason Pierre. Paul 3371 02:44:43,760 --> 02:44:46,640 Speaker 1: I had average, uh, a little not as strong as 3372 02:44:46,640 --> 02:44:48,440 Speaker 1: I wanted him to be. I thought when he got 3373 02:44:48,480 --> 02:44:50,760 Speaker 1: to the pro level he would have some trouble with 3374 02:44:50,760 --> 02:44:54,240 Speaker 1: with strength fighting off some of these receivers and and 3375 02:44:54,280 --> 02:44:56,400 Speaker 1: being able to fight them for the ball. I did 3376 02:44:56,400 --> 02:44:58,360 Speaker 1: not think that that was where it needed to be. 3377 02:44:58,400 --> 02:45:01,000 Speaker 1: But it's something you can certainly ray ease the level 3378 02:45:01,040 --> 02:45:03,240 Speaker 1: of a guy strength and get him in the weight room. 3379 02:45:04,240 --> 02:45:07,680 Speaker 1: I like him and I absolutely would take him if 3380 02:45:07,680 --> 02:45:10,360 Speaker 1: he was there in the fourth round, four, three, six. 3381 02:45:10,480 --> 02:45:12,760 Speaker 1: He's got the speed. I'm not questioning that at all. 3382 02:45:12,760 --> 02:45:15,880 Speaker 1: It's his physicality. I'm a little concerned some pounds, so 3383 02:45:16,040 --> 02:45:18,640 Speaker 1: that that makes sense. I'm with you, you know, I, Paul, 3384 02:45:18,680 --> 02:45:20,560 Speaker 1: I just think it's really important to get a corner. 3385 02:45:21,160 --> 02:45:24,080 Speaker 1: And I don't I like, you know, I like I 3386 02:45:24,120 --> 02:45:25,880 Speaker 1: would not be upset they picked the guys you liked. 3387 02:45:25,879 --> 02:45:27,440 Speaker 1: I like Lorenzo Carda. I think he's a really good 3388 02:45:27,480 --> 02:45:30,480 Speaker 1: there's needs at all three of those positions. Absolutely, and 3389 02:45:30,520 --> 02:45:32,760 Speaker 1: I wish that one of those other corners had dropped. 3390 02:45:32,760 --> 02:45:35,000 Speaker 1: But it might be a reach to pick a corner here. 3391 02:45:35,000 --> 02:45:36,880 Speaker 1: It's a good point. I I think Carter would be 3392 02:45:36,920 --> 02:45:39,480 Speaker 1: the upside pick if you want to take would take 3393 02:45:39,959 --> 02:45:41,760 Speaker 1: Would they take the defensive and think he's more of 3394 02:45:41,760 --> 02:45:45,040 Speaker 1: a four three D I wouldn't take him, But if 3395 02:45:45,040 --> 02:45:46,800 Speaker 1: they did, would you be shocked? No? And he's a 3396 02:45:46,800 --> 02:45:48,800 Speaker 1: good player, so I wouldn't be upset about it. Sixty 3397 02:45:48,879 --> 02:45:51,120 Speaker 1: five is being called out by the Raiders finally, as 3398 02:45:51,160 --> 02:45:54,400 Speaker 1: the Giants remain on the clock and the Raiders uh 3399 02:45:54,640 --> 02:45:57,920 Speaker 1: get their pick out to the crowd. Brandon Parker, North 3400 02:45:57,920 --> 02:46:02,000 Speaker 1: Carolina A and T offense some tackle. He is a raw, 3401 02:46:02,120 --> 02:46:05,400 Speaker 1: raw guy. He was at the Senior Bowl. I actually 3402 02:46:05,400 --> 02:46:07,960 Speaker 1: had a conversation with Brandon Parker at the Senior Bowl 3403 02:46:08,120 --> 02:46:11,240 Speaker 1: from North Carolina. Anti if I remember right, you starter 3404 02:46:11,320 --> 02:46:14,360 Speaker 1: at left tackle for them. Yes, he's he's an athletic guy. 3405 02:46:14,520 --> 02:46:17,160 Speaker 1: He's not the biggest guy in the world though, UM, 3406 02:46:17,200 --> 02:46:19,959 Speaker 1: and I think they won there. How much UM that's 3407 02:46:20,000 --> 02:46:23,160 Speaker 1: gonna transfer. He's six seven and a half three oh five, 3408 02:46:23,240 --> 02:46:25,400 Speaker 1: so he's a big dude in terms of height. He's 3409 02:46:25,440 --> 02:46:28,080 Speaker 1: got a good reach. His arm length came in the 3410 02:46:28,200 --> 02:46:32,160 Speaker 1: thirty five inches for arm length, which is fantastic for 3411 02:46:32,200 --> 02:46:35,480 Speaker 1: an offensive tackle. But North Carolina Anti obviously a very 3412 02:46:35,520 --> 02:46:38,480 Speaker 1: low level program, and I wonder hasn't been a transferred 3413 02:46:38,480 --> 02:46:40,959 Speaker 1: to the NFL level, especially on the offensive line. That 3414 02:46:41,040 --> 02:46:42,879 Speaker 1: could sometimes take a year or two for the guy 3415 02:46:42,879 --> 02:46:44,240 Speaker 1: to get used to that. And again, I like to 3416 02:46:44,280 --> 02:46:46,720 Speaker 1: have a soft spot for some of the lower competition guys, 3417 02:46:46,760 --> 02:46:49,240 Speaker 1: but it is something when you're that low in competition, 3418 02:46:49,360 --> 02:46:51,800 Speaker 1: that's a big jump now. And then also they drafted 3419 02:46:51,800 --> 02:46:54,720 Speaker 1: Colton Miller yesterday, so that's two offensive tackles they brought in. 3420 02:46:55,000 --> 02:46:57,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, two guys with similar profile. Giants 3421 02:46:57,600 --> 02:47:02,320 Speaker 1: pick is already in once again, Dave gettleman with lightning quickness, 3422 02:47:03,240 --> 02:47:05,520 Speaker 1: hustling the pick up to the podium. He's not the 3423 02:47:05,560 --> 02:47:12,640 Speaker 1: one running it up himself. This is true. He's here. 3424 02:47:13,240 --> 02:47:15,800 Speaker 1: We have our good buddies, Patrick Hanscom, one of our 3425 02:47:15,840 --> 02:47:18,200 Speaker 1: members of our scouting staff down in Dallas Buckets, who 3426 02:47:18,240 --> 02:47:19,920 Speaker 1: was taking care of that down there. Yeah, I did 3427 02:47:19,920 --> 02:47:23,800 Speaker 1: not think that Crosby would be here. So that's why 3428 02:47:24,200 --> 02:47:26,720 Speaker 1: you know, I'm still gonna go for Carter with the 3429 02:47:26,760 --> 02:47:29,400 Speaker 1: next pick. I'm gonna make Crosby my first third round pick, 3430 02:47:29,440 --> 02:47:32,640 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go Lorenzo Carter with my second third 3431 02:47:32,720 --> 02:47:35,120 Speaker 1: round pick. Now, he doesn't play with quite the physicality, 3432 02:47:35,200 --> 02:47:37,440 Speaker 1: but his body type and size actually reminds me a 3433 02:47:37,480 --> 02:47:39,840 Speaker 1: little bit of Cree mackenzie. Um the way he kind 3434 02:47:39,840 --> 02:47:42,680 Speaker 1: of sits there and stands. He's not the physical maler 3435 02:47:42,800 --> 02:47:44,520 Speaker 1: that Mackenzie is. I think that's actually one of the 3436 02:47:44,560 --> 02:47:47,560 Speaker 1: weaknesses in his game. He's not physical enough. But I 3437 02:47:47,560 --> 02:47:49,480 Speaker 1: think he's a future right tackle. I'm not sure if 3438 02:47:49,480 --> 02:47:51,320 Speaker 1: he hasn't to be a left tackle. He's struggled a 3439 02:47:51,360 --> 02:47:55,320 Speaker 1: little bit. No, they don't, which is fine. Um, I 3440 02:47:55,360 --> 02:47:57,920 Speaker 1: think he would. I think he's a guy that has 3441 02:47:57,959 --> 02:48:00,440 Speaker 1: a chance at earning a starting spot as a rookie. 3442 02:48:00,520 --> 02:48:02,039 Speaker 1: I think it takes some development, there will be some 3443 02:48:02,120 --> 02:48:04,560 Speaker 1: rough stretches along the way, but in the third round 3444 02:48:04,560 --> 02:48:07,000 Speaker 1: to get an offensive tackle that you think can start 3445 02:48:07,000 --> 02:48:09,520 Speaker 1: in year one if everything goes right, that's a very 3446 02:48:09,600 --> 02:48:11,680 Speaker 1: high quality pick right there. Did have a bit of 3447 02:48:11,680 --> 02:48:15,039 Speaker 1: a foot issue when he was at Oregon, but overcame 3448 02:48:15,080 --> 02:48:17,960 Speaker 1: that it was minor. Um. I had some people tell 3449 02:48:18,000 --> 02:48:21,760 Speaker 1: me because I jotted the the the notation down that 3450 02:48:21,800 --> 02:48:24,240 Speaker 1: he may actually be uh able to also play some 3451 02:48:24,280 --> 02:48:27,160 Speaker 1: guard in the NFL. Believe it or not. I agree 3452 02:48:27,160 --> 02:48:29,879 Speaker 1: with that. So so you know this, this would be 3453 02:48:29,920 --> 02:48:33,039 Speaker 1: another one of those offensive lineman who has versatility and 3454 02:48:33,040 --> 02:48:35,360 Speaker 1: brings it to the table. Hernandez. By the way, if 3455 02:48:35,400 --> 02:48:38,400 Speaker 1: we didn't mention it before, and I apologize, he's strictly 3456 02:48:38,400 --> 02:48:41,360 Speaker 1: a guard. He's not playing anything else. He never played 3457 02:48:41,400 --> 02:48:43,920 Speaker 1: center in college, didn't play tackle in college, and his 3458 02:48:44,000 --> 02:48:47,400 Speaker 1: body type and skill set indicates he is a power guard. 3459 02:48:48,120 --> 02:48:52,600 Speaker 1: Crosby again projection possibility of guard. But he would be 3460 02:48:52,640 --> 02:48:55,000 Speaker 1: in my mind a a right tackle. He has played 3461 02:48:55,040 --> 02:48:59,800 Speaker 1: both right tackle and left tackle in college with the Ducks. Uh. 3462 02:48:59,840 --> 02:49:02,959 Speaker 1: I had him down as being very agile with a 3463 02:49:02,959 --> 02:49:07,080 Speaker 1: good punch, gets to the second level, quick feet, um, 3464 02:49:07,120 --> 02:49:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, good off the snap, with a quick move 3465 02:49:10,080 --> 02:49:12,680 Speaker 1: coming off of the snap. What I said he had 3466 02:49:12,680 --> 02:49:16,040 Speaker 1: to anchor or do better on with more power, chisel 3467 02:49:16,160 --> 02:49:19,480 Speaker 1: his body get getting a little more conditioning and more 3468 02:49:19,520 --> 02:49:22,320 Speaker 1: power and also anchor a little bit better in the 3469 02:49:22,360 --> 02:49:25,039 Speaker 1: lower body. I mean, he's got good technique in his anchor, 3470 02:49:25,080 --> 02:49:26,920 Speaker 1: but I didn't think he had a lot of weight 3471 02:49:26,920 --> 02:49:29,400 Speaker 1: in the caboose. Yeah, I agree, which is why I 3472 02:49:29,400 --> 02:49:31,800 Speaker 1: said I don't think he's the maller that he's not 3473 02:49:32,400 --> 02:49:34,760 Speaker 1: McKenzie is, but remember he played left tackled Oregan. We 3474 02:49:34,800 --> 02:49:37,000 Speaker 1: know the type of offense that Oregon role played both 3475 02:49:37,000 --> 02:49:39,160 Speaker 1: both tackles, which is good, but again, you know the 3476 02:49:39,200 --> 02:49:41,200 Speaker 1: type of offense that Oregon runs, so they're not he 3477 02:49:41,520 --> 02:49:44,320 Speaker 1: I get. I guarantee probably wasn't a three point stance 3478 02:49:44,720 --> 02:49:46,480 Speaker 1: hardly at all at that school. So that's gonna be 3479 02:49:46,480 --> 02:49:49,200 Speaker 1: an adjustment. He's gonna have to make yes, yes at 3480 02:49:49,240 --> 02:49:51,400 Speaker 1: the pro level, which is why probably some of his 3481 02:49:51,480 --> 02:49:53,600 Speaker 1: run game blocking and stuff like that isn't as physical 3482 02:49:54,040 --> 02:49:55,320 Speaker 1: as you would like it. He was also with the 3483 02:49:55,320 --> 02:49:57,280 Speaker 1: Senior Bowl, by the way, Tyroll Crosby and I thought 3484 02:49:57,400 --> 02:49:59,959 Speaker 1: he actually had a better Senior Bowl than Brian O'Neil. 3485 02:50:00,080 --> 02:50:03,480 Speaker 1: Chris Canty is stepping up there. He's getting ready to 3486 02:50:03,520 --> 02:50:06,560 Speaker 1: take over the podium. Troy Vincent has replaced Roger Gerdell 3487 02:50:06,640 --> 02:50:07,800 Speaker 1: up there too. By the way, I'm looking for the 3488 02:50:07,800 --> 02:50:12,000 Speaker 1: big seas or Carter Well. Kennedy could be picking somebody 3489 02:50:12,040 --> 02:50:14,520 Speaker 1: that's not quite as tall as he is, but someone 3490 02:50:14,560 --> 02:50:16,040 Speaker 1: that's nearly as tall as he as. We'll see you 3491 02:50:16,120 --> 02:50:18,520 Speaker 1: the Giants select here. As Chris Canty is at the 3492 02:50:18,560 --> 02:50:21,440 Speaker 1: podium trying to pump some people up as he makes 3493 02:50:21,440 --> 02:50:24,600 Speaker 1: the Giants selection with the sixty six overall pick, the 3494 02:50:24,640 --> 02:50:27,200 Speaker 1: Giants first third round pick, they do pick again at 3495 02:50:27,240 --> 02:50:28,959 Speaker 1: sixty nine. Will it be a tackle, Will it be 3496 02:50:29,000 --> 02:50:31,320 Speaker 1: a corner? Will it be a linebacker? Will be something 3497 02:50:31,320 --> 02:50:34,760 Speaker 1: we did not think about heading into this pick. Dave Gentleman, 3498 02:50:34,840 --> 02:50:36,920 Speaker 1: he got the picking quick. He knows who he wanted, 3499 02:50:37,000 --> 02:50:42,760 Speaker 1: and he selects Lorenzo car Baby, linebacker out of Georgia. 3500 02:50:43,320 --> 02:50:46,840 Speaker 1: I'm with three for three, and that's and that that 3501 02:50:46,959 --> 02:50:49,320 Speaker 1: was a hard one. The other two were easy. I 3502 02:50:49,360 --> 02:50:51,760 Speaker 1: don't think that the Carter was a little bit, a 3503 02:50:51,800 --> 02:50:56,600 Speaker 1: little bit. Lorenzo Carter weak side, strong side, put him 3504 02:50:56,640 --> 02:51:01,080 Speaker 1: anywhere you like he could. He he he is versatile again, 3505 02:51:01,400 --> 02:51:06,160 Speaker 1: not a stap monger, not with tremendous not with tremendous 3506 02:51:06,200 --> 02:51:09,280 Speaker 1: numbers and production. He's one of those projection guys. He's 3507 02:51:09,280 --> 02:51:11,320 Speaker 1: a guy that you can draft for his traits and 3508 02:51:11,400 --> 02:51:14,440 Speaker 1: you have to coach him up to fit him in 3509 02:51:14,520 --> 02:51:16,600 Speaker 1: on the NFL field, to figure out exactly where he's 3510 02:51:16,640 --> 02:51:18,840 Speaker 1: gonna wind up. And Paul, look, this team also needs 3511 02:51:18,840 --> 02:51:22,080 Speaker 1: pass rushers. He's a guy that on third down. I 3512 02:51:22,080 --> 02:51:25,240 Speaker 1: know he's a linebacker, but he can put his hand 3513 02:51:25,320 --> 02:51:27,200 Speaker 1: in the dirt and get after the quarterback at six. 3514 02:51:28,200 --> 02:51:29,760 Speaker 1: He's the guy who can use as a pass rustaurant 3515 02:51:29,720 --> 02:51:32,959 Speaker 1: on third down. There's no question about it. So Carter, 3516 02:51:33,040 --> 02:51:35,040 Speaker 1: what do I have? I have for him? Okay, here's 3517 02:51:35,040 --> 02:51:38,879 Speaker 1: what I wrote. I love his frame, his ability to 3518 02:51:38,920 --> 02:51:43,160 Speaker 1: shed blocks. I wrote down he's got range, he can 3519 02:51:43,200 --> 02:51:47,360 Speaker 1: get to the quarterbacks straight ahead speed. And I wrote 3520 02:51:47,400 --> 02:51:50,480 Speaker 1: down questionable on cover because he didn't do a lot 3521 02:51:50,520 --> 02:51:52,600 Speaker 1: of coverage. Wasn't asked to do that. Didn't do much 3522 02:51:52,600 --> 02:51:54,560 Speaker 1: of that, and you do a lot of backup. I 3523 02:51:54,680 --> 02:51:59,080 Speaker 1: put down his immediate change of direction quickness off the line. 3524 02:51:59,120 --> 02:52:01,600 Speaker 1: Once again, he wasn't asked to do it, so that's 3525 02:52:01,640 --> 02:52:04,240 Speaker 1: a question mark. And I also wrote down simply put 3526 02:52:04,360 --> 02:52:07,520 Speaker 1: stats because he was not a stat filler. That's not 3527 02:52:07,600 --> 02:52:10,760 Speaker 1: what he did. He's just a pure football player and 3528 02:52:10,800 --> 02:52:13,439 Speaker 1: he comes from a heck of a program, the Georgia Bulldogs. 3529 02:52:13,440 --> 02:52:16,600 Speaker 1: And this is the summary from Dame Bruegler's draft guide 3530 02:52:16,800 --> 02:52:22,199 Speaker 1: on Mr Carter very quickly. Overall, Carter has enticing athleticism, length, 3531 02:52:22,240 --> 02:52:25,320 Speaker 1: and versatility to play an outside linebacker role in any 3532 02:52:25,400 --> 02:52:28,600 Speaker 1: NFL scheme, but he needs to get stronger and develop 3533 02:52:28,680 --> 02:52:32,120 Speaker 1: his diagnosed skills to land and secure starting job. Freaky 3534 02:52:32,160 --> 02:52:35,720 Speaker 1: athleticism and length will half him drafted high, maybe as 3535 02:52:35,760 --> 02:52:37,720 Speaker 1: early as the top of the first round. But of 3536 02:52:37,720 --> 02:52:39,960 Speaker 1: course the Giants get him in round three, which means 3537 02:52:39,959 --> 02:52:42,120 Speaker 1: he wasn't overdrafted and they got him exactly where he 3538 02:52:42,120 --> 02:52:44,000 Speaker 1: should have gotten picked, which is why it's such a 3539 02:52:44,000 --> 02:52:48,320 Speaker 1: good selection by Dave Gentleman. Value meets need on all 3540 02:52:48,640 --> 02:52:52,280 Speaker 1: three of the Giants picks so far, John, How could 3541 02:52:52,320 --> 02:52:55,600 Speaker 1: anybody possibly complain? And the reason why the Carter pick 3542 02:52:55,720 --> 02:52:58,360 Speaker 1: makes so much sense that I like it, Paul is 3543 02:52:58,800 --> 02:53:01,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned his verse ability, so he can be a 3544 02:53:01,640 --> 02:53:03,640 Speaker 1: run and chase linebacker if you need him too, because 3545 02:53:03,640 --> 02:53:06,320 Speaker 1: of his speed. But again, like I said before, Paul, 3546 02:53:06,480 --> 02:53:08,800 Speaker 1: he can put his hand in the dirt and rush 3547 02:53:08,879 --> 02:53:11,440 Speaker 1: the quarterback. He had five sacks as a junior. He 3548 02:53:11,520 --> 02:53:13,600 Speaker 1: had four and a half sacks. As a senior, he 3549 02:53:13,640 --> 02:53:15,760 Speaker 1: had four and a half sacks starting just five games 3550 02:53:15,760 --> 02:53:18,920 Speaker 1: as a freshman. This guy can get after the quarterback 3551 02:53:19,280 --> 02:53:21,879 Speaker 1: and I think that's a big part of this selection. 3552 02:53:22,320 --> 02:53:25,800 Speaker 1: And he's one of these athletic weapons that James Betcher 3553 02:53:25,920 --> 02:53:28,600 Speaker 1: loves to have on his team. You know, he can 3554 02:53:28,600 --> 02:53:30,600 Speaker 1: put him in a bunch of different spots. You confuse 3555 02:53:30,680 --> 02:53:33,120 Speaker 1: defenses with him, bus he's so versatile, and I think 3556 02:53:33,160 --> 02:53:35,760 Speaker 1: it's a really, really, really good fit. And this is 3557 02:53:35,800 --> 02:53:37,640 Speaker 1: the guy that we talked about a lot leading up 3558 02:53:37,640 --> 02:53:39,760 Speaker 1: to this, that he was a guy in around three 3559 02:53:39,800 --> 02:53:41,560 Speaker 1: that if he's there, you would target. In fact, and 3560 02:53:41,640 --> 02:53:43,920 Speaker 1: a lot of fans actually sent me mock drafts with 3561 02:53:43,959 --> 02:53:45,560 Speaker 1: there getting Carter on around three, and I think we 3562 02:53:45,640 --> 02:53:48,160 Speaker 1: told him he's not gonna be there around three, and 3563 02:53:48,320 --> 02:53:50,440 Speaker 1: I didn't think he was gonna be there in round three, 3564 02:53:50,480 --> 02:53:52,920 Speaker 1: but at this part of the third round, I thought 3565 02:53:53,160 --> 02:53:54,959 Speaker 1: top of the second round was too rich for Quarter. 3566 02:53:55,440 --> 02:53:57,959 Speaker 1: I think this is a great spot for Quarter, and 3567 02:53:58,000 --> 02:53:59,680 Speaker 1: I think he's a very very good fit at the 3568 02:53:59,680 --> 02:54:02,560 Speaker 1: top of round three for the Giants. Yeah, now guess what, 3569 02:54:03,080 --> 02:54:06,000 Speaker 1: uh we are at pick number sixty eight. Detections are 3570 02:54:06,000 --> 02:54:08,760 Speaker 1: already on the board, and so the Giants are now 3571 02:54:08,800 --> 02:54:11,440 Speaker 1: only you pick away as Houston is about to announce there, 3572 02:54:11,560 --> 02:54:14,240 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go Crosby here. You know, I wanted 3573 02:54:14,240 --> 02:54:17,640 Speaker 1: the two seeds. I wanted Carterbine Crosby. I'm gonna Crosby 3574 02:54:17,680 --> 02:54:19,360 Speaker 1: should not be here, by the way, real quick. One 3575 02:54:19,360 --> 02:54:22,760 Speaker 1: more thing on Carter, real fast pall Uh Kenley Platt 3576 02:54:22,800 --> 02:54:25,000 Speaker 1: who does the relative athletics scores and he does the 3577 02:54:25,240 --> 02:54:30,440 Speaker 1: computation safety justin Reid Stanford to Houston UM Lorenzo Carter 3578 02:54:31,879 --> 02:54:37,640 Speaker 1: ranked number one out of every linebacker ever tested on 3579 02:54:37,720 --> 02:54:41,959 Speaker 1: the r A S at ten out of ten. His 3580 02:54:42,080 --> 02:54:47,720 Speaker 1: athletic skills are unmistakable correct. But again also keep in mind, 3581 02:54:47,920 --> 02:54:49,480 Speaker 1: look at the team he played for. You don't know 3582 02:54:49,480 --> 02:54:53,640 Speaker 1: how equality players were on that defense, which is one 3583 02:54:53,640 --> 02:54:56,520 Speaker 1: of the reasons why you can't kill him for not 3584 02:54:56,600 --> 02:54:59,800 Speaker 1: having huge stats because there are only so many tackles 3585 02:54:59,800 --> 02:55:02,720 Speaker 1: in he plays to go around. You follow I do. 3586 02:55:03,280 --> 02:55:06,080 Speaker 1: He's a guy that you know. Coach McGovern will now 3587 02:55:06,080 --> 02:55:08,200 Speaker 1: have a chance to coach him up the Giants linebackers 3588 02:55:08,240 --> 02:55:10,800 Speaker 1: coach and turn him into a really good football play 3589 02:55:10,840 --> 02:55:14,640 Speaker 1: again with Betcher's versatile scheme where he wants guys to 3590 02:55:14,720 --> 02:55:17,039 Speaker 1: be guessing on the other side of the ball as 3591 02:55:17,080 --> 02:55:20,800 Speaker 1: he looks to move his defensive players around. Lorenz O'carter 3592 02:55:21,440 --> 02:55:24,840 Speaker 1: is that guy who really will help out quite a 3593 02:55:24,840 --> 02:55:27,119 Speaker 1: bit in that scenario. And by the way, Chad Thomas 3594 02:55:27,120 --> 02:55:29,480 Speaker 1: defensive in Miami went to the Colts at sixty seven. 3595 02:55:29,520 --> 02:55:32,680 Speaker 1: By the way, before Justin Reid went to the Texans 3596 02:55:32,720 --> 02:55:34,880 Speaker 1: at sixty eight. So the Giants at the clock at 3597 02:55:34,920 --> 02:55:36,920 Speaker 1: sixty nine, and look, I think, and the pick is 3598 02:55:36,920 --> 02:55:39,520 Speaker 1: it's already again wasting no time. And look, I think 3599 02:55:39,600 --> 02:55:42,760 Speaker 1: offensive tackle is where you go here. Whether it's Tyrell 3600 02:55:42,840 --> 02:55:45,560 Speaker 1: Crosby or Jamarco Jones, I'm good with either one of them. 3601 02:55:46,080 --> 02:55:47,800 Speaker 1: I think that would be a really, really good pick 3602 02:55:47,840 --> 02:55:51,640 Speaker 1: for the New York Football Giants if Crosby gets picked here, man, 3603 02:55:51,800 --> 02:55:55,160 Speaker 1: I am definitely no. I'm just going to the Delhi 3604 02:55:55,200 --> 02:55:56,960 Speaker 1: to get my lottery ticket tonight. On the way home, 3605 02:55:57,240 --> 02:56:01,840 Speaker 1: I'm telling your luck could have happened to all right. 3606 02:56:03,080 --> 02:56:07,440 Speaker 1: J Hill, defensive tackle, North Carolina, Folks, I'm totally off 3607 02:56:07,480 --> 02:56:09,600 Speaker 1: the board on that one. I I really didn't see 3608 02:56:09,640 --> 02:56:11,959 Speaker 1: it coming. You can't get him, all right, Paul. But 3609 02:56:12,040 --> 02:56:14,400 Speaker 1: you know what, and you know here's what we made 3610 02:56:14,440 --> 02:56:17,160 Speaker 1: the mistake, Paul, what position more than any other? As 3611 02:56:17,240 --> 02:56:21,720 Speaker 1: Dave Gentleman drafted as general manager at the Carolina Panthers, 3612 02:56:22,160 --> 02:56:27,240 Speaker 1: defensive did defensive lineman and specifically defensive tackles. He drafted 3613 02:56:27,280 --> 02:56:30,120 Speaker 1: star Low to Lale and Cowan Short with back to 3614 02:56:30,200 --> 02:56:33,560 Speaker 1: back picks one year. So B J. Hill. Here's what 3615 02:56:33,640 --> 02:56:36,720 Speaker 1: Dame Brewer has about him in the draft guide. UM. Overall, 3616 02:56:37,040 --> 02:56:39,200 Speaker 1: Hill was the athletic bounce and upper body strength to 3617 02:56:39,240 --> 02:56:43,800 Speaker 1: control multiple blockers, projecting as a scheme versatile NFL nose tackle. 3618 02:56:44,200 --> 02:56:47,480 Speaker 1: Uh six ft three, three eleven pounds. UM. He bench 3619 02:56:47,560 --> 02:56:51,600 Speaker 1: pressed at the combine thirty five reps. He's a very 3620 02:56:51,640 --> 02:56:54,720 Speaker 1: strong guy. Um. And he's a guy that's going to 3621 02:56:54,760 --> 02:56:58,000 Speaker 1: be a run stuffer in the Giants three four defense. 3622 02:56:58,160 --> 02:57:00,480 Speaker 1: I had him, believe it or not, as a four 3623 02:57:00,600 --> 02:57:04,120 Speaker 1: three defensive tackle or a three four defensive end. That's 3624 02:57:04,120 --> 02:57:06,080 Speaker 1: how I project and I think that's where he's gonna fit. 3625 02:57:06,120 --> 02:57:08,280 Speaker 1: And we talked about I mentioned that with the hand 3626 02:57:08,360 --> 02:57:10,800 Speaker 1: kid from Alabama. I think he fits that role as 3627 02:57:10,800 --> 02:57:13,400 Speaker 1: at three four d M. Yeah, Um, I'm with you. 3628 02:57:13,560 --> 02:57:16,199 Speaker 1: What I liked looked like you were smart and assertive, 3629 02:57:16,400 --> 02:57:19,440 Speaker 1: very athletic for his size and gets off on the 3630 02:57:19,480 --> 02:57:22,840 Speaker 1: snap very quickly, which is really a good thing, especially 3631 02:57:22,840 --> 02:57:25,480 Speaker 1: for an interior alignment. Uh. And and he will be 3632 02:57:25,520 --> 02:57:27,400 Speaker 1: playing some of that and and what the Giants are 3633 02:57:27,400 --> 02:57:29,879 Speaker 1: gonna schemer at. What I did say is he had 3634 02:57:29,920 --> 02:57:32,440 Speaker 1: to add some more moves to his repertoire. Needed to 3635 02:57:32,520 --> 02:57:36,560 Speaker 1: expand his moves, and I I wanted to see him 3636 02:57:36,600 --> 02:57:39,520 Speaker 1: get a little stronger as well. Only three sacks as 3637 02:57:39,520 --> 02:57:42,520 Speaker 1: a senior, but again that's not the position and the 3638 02:57:42,560 --> 02:57:45,039 Speaker 1: type of player that you're looking for a big sack 3639 02:57:45,440 --> 02:57:47,760 Speaker 1: from either. So correct, he's gonna stop the run. He's 3640 02:57:47,760 --> 02:57:50,039 Speaker 1: gonna be a solid guy inside. I'm surprised they didn't 3641 02:57:50,040 --> 02:57:52,000 Speaker 1: go with an offensive tackle. They must not have thought 3642 02:57:52,320 --> 02:57:54,840 Speaker 1: that whoever was on the board, whether it's uh, Martinus 3643 02:57:54,879 --> 02:57:59,680 Speaker 1: Rankin or Tywell Crosby or Jamarco Jones, was worth the 3644 02:57:59,720 --> 02:58:01,320 Speaker 1: pick here in the third round, as Da've got him 3645 02:58:01,320 --> 02:58:02,920 Speaker 1: in the said he's gonna draft the guys that he 3646 02:58:03,000 --> 02:58:07,320 Speaker 1: thinks are the best players, and he believes, um that 3647 02:58:07,400 --> 02:58:09,280 Speaker 1: Hill is the best player on the board here, and 3648 02:58:09,320 --> 02:58:11,920 Speaker 1: it makes sense for the New York Football Giant said, look, uh, 3649 02:58:11,959 --> 02:58:15,040 Speaker 1: they didn't help defensively. Uh, the team did struggle against 3650 02:58:15,040 --> 02:58:17,200 Speaker 1: the run last year. He can't hide that fact. They 3651 02:58:17,280 --> 02:58:20,039 Speaker 1: certainly did, and Hell will certainly help them try to 3652 02:58:20,240 --> 02:58:23,760 Speaker 1: rectify that situation. Now we know the Giants have Snacks Harrison, 3653 02:58:24,320 --> 02:58:26,600 Speaker 1: and we know they have Dalvelin Tomlinson, and we know 3654 02:58:26,720 --> 02:58:29,720 Speaker 1: they have Robert Thomas, and then of course you know 3655 02:58:29,800 --> 02:58:32,000 Speaker 1: there are other bodies that they will have a training camp, 3656 02:58:32,040 --> 02:58:35,000 Speaker 1: guys trying to win another job. But uh, you know, 3657 02:58:35,120 --> 02:58:38,320 Speaker 1: it looks to me like at least their top three 3658 02:58:39,200 --> 02:58:43,640 Speaker 1: defensive tackle spots are probably you know, pretty secure. So 3659 02:58:43,920 --> 02:58:45,959 Speaker 1: if you draft a guy like this in the third round, 3660 02:58:46,000 --> 02:58:48,080 Speaker 1: you figure he's gonna make the team. So that would 3661 02:58:48,080 --> 02:58:51,640 Speaker 1: be the four spots unless somebody surprises somebody and and 3662 02:58:51,720 --> 02:58:54,400 Speaker 1: steals a spot. Maybe the problem is that the way 3663 02:58:54,440 --> 02:58:58,199 Speaker 1: Betcher uses guys. I I almost hate the pigeonhole people 3664 02:58:58,200 --> 02:59:01,800 Speaker 1: into spots. Us has been so many different places, and 3665 02:59:01,480 --> 02:59:04,119 Speaker 1: that's a good point. Figure it out. That's a good point. 3666 02:59:04,520 --> 02:59:06,360 Speaker 1: But but you know, if you're gonna consider more of 3667 02:59:06,360 --> 02:59:09,320 Speaker 1: a d ND while on the other side, opposite h Vernon, 3668 02:59:09,959 --> 02:59:12,200 Speaker 1: you know that d N spots gonna be probably your 3669 02:59:12,320 --> 02:59:15,520 Speaker 1: Kuara or carry Win. I mean, oh, maybe they think 3670 02:59:15,600 --> 02:59:17,680 Speaker 1: he's got a little bit more stuff in the rear 3671 02:59:17,800 --> 02:59:19,200 Speaker 1: end to stop to run a little bit better than 3672 02:59:19,240 --> 02:59:22,000 Speaker 1: those guests. That could be. That could be. Now he's 3673 02:59:22,040 --> 02:59:23,880 Speaker 1: a he's a probably a first and second down player, 3674 02:59:24,000 --> 02:59:26,800 Speaker 1: and there's uh Josh Morrow there too. Yeah, I would 3675 02:59:26,800 --> 02:59:28,840 Speaker 1: imagine he's probably a first and second down player more 3676 02:59:28,879 --> 02:59:31,039 Speaker 1: than he's a third down game. Yeah, I would agree that. Yeah, 3677 02:59:31,080 --> 02:59:35,640 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. M they have b. J. Hill. 3678 02:59:35,720 --> 02:59:37,000 Speaker 1: If you guys want to get on the line and 3679 02:59:37,160 --> 02:59:39,959 Speaker 1: react to that pick, you can at two, four five 3680 02:59:40,040 --> 02:59:43,200 Speaker 1: on three. Uh, well, we'll try to get one or 3681 02:59:43,320 --> 02:59:45,879 Speaker 1: both of the players on if we can. We'll give 3682 02:59:45,959 --> 02:59:49,000 Speaker 1: that a the old college try. In fact, they're trying 3683 02:59:49,000 --> 02:59:51,240 Speaker 1: to get Lorenzo for us right now. If we do, 3684 02:59:51,360 --> 02:59:53,640 Speaker 1: then we'll probably say goodbyes shortly thereafter. We'll see how 3685 02:59:53,720 --> 02:59:55,920 Speaker 1: that goes. Um. Oh, in fact, we're gonna having a 3686 02:59:55,959 --> 02:59:58,000 Speaker 1: line in a second. Excellent, Good well, Lorenzo Carter in 3687 02:59:58,040 --> 03:00:01,080 Speaker 1: a moment here, Um on the line here talk about 3688 03:00:01,280 --> 03:00:02,960 Speaker 1: one of the newest members of the Giants. Again, the 3689 03:00:03,000 --> 03:00:06,720 Speaker 1: Giants like Lorenzo Carter, versatile linebacker out of Georgia at 3690 03:00:06,760 --> 03:00:09,959 Speaker 1: sixty six, and then at sixty nine they sele b J. Hill, 3691 03:00:10,040 --> 03:00:14,000 Speaker 1: defensive tackle out of NC State. And we're gonna have 3692 03:00:14,120 --> 03:00:18,000 Speaker 1: a Lorenzo on the line in just a moment. So 3693 03:00:18,200 --> 03:00:20,680 Speaker 1: paul Um things a Carter to talk about. I think 3694 03:00:20,680 --> 03:00:22,480 Speaker 1: it's I think we have to ask him about where 3695 03:00:22,520 --> 03:00:25,120 Speaker 1: he feels most comfortable, what role and how he plays, 3696 03:00:25,600 --> 03:00:27,280 Speaker 1: and you know how he thinks he can grow at 3697 03:00:27,280 --> 03:00:28,800 Speaker 1: the NFL level. I think those are the main things 3698 03:00:28,840 --> 03:00:30,920 Speaker 1: we gotta cover with him. Well, let's face it, one 3699 03:00:31,000 --> 03:00:33,640 Speaker 1: thing for sure, coming out of a program like Georgia, 3700 03:00:33,959 --> 03:00:35,960 Speaker 1: he's not gonna be afraid of the bright lights that 3701 03:00:36,320 --> 03:00:39,120 Speaker 1: we know, and we also know because he's played with 3702 03:00:39,240 --> 03:00:42,280 Speaker 1: so many other terrific players over his college career. Uh, 3703 03:00:42,320 --> 03:00:44,800 Speaker 1: He's certainly is going to understand the responsibility that he 3704 03:00:44,879 --> 03:00:47,120 Speaker 1: has coming into the pro level. Because when you play 3705 03:00:47,160 --> 03:00:49,959 Speaker 1: on a team that that's it's that good, you pick 3706 03:00:50,040 --> 03:00:51,600 Speaker 1: up your game because you don't want to be the 3707 03:00:51,640 --> 03:00:53,720 Speaker 1: week link on a team like that, you know, so 3708 03:00:53,879 --> 03:00:55,760 Speaker 1: you have to have pride, you have to be a 3709 03:00:55,800 --> 03:00:58,240 Speaker 1: self motivator because you gotta fit in with the rest 3710 03:00:58,280 --> 03:01:01,000 Speaker 1: of what is a very good squad, no question about it. 3711 03:01:01,080 --> 03:01:02,600 Speaker 1: And Well, Lorenzo on the line with us here on 3712 03:01:02,680 --> 03:01:05,480 Speaker 1: Big Blue Kickoff Live.

We we have seen so many 3719 03:01:27,600 --> 03:01:30,600 Speaker 1: projections about you as a week side linebacker, a strong 3720 03:01:30,680 --> 03:01:35,039 Speaker 1: sign linebacker. Your physical tools allow you to be incredibly versatile, 3721 03:01:35,440 --> 03:01:40,080 Speaker 1: which will fit James Betcher's defensive scheme here extremely well. 3722 03:01:40,720 --> 03:01:44,119 Speaker 1: How do you see yourself stepping in to this defense 3723 03:01:44,240 --> 03:01:47,560 Speaker 1: at the pro level again with so many different skills 3724 03:01:47,600 --> 03:01:51,480 Speaker 1: in your Russian? Yeah? Um, first, I just want to 3725 03:01:51,520 --> 03:02:00,400 Speaker 1: get up there. I'm I've been waiting, Um, get up there. 3726 03:02:00,680 --> 03:02:02,960 Speaker 1: Just do it in a coach his ask. I mean, 3727 03:02:03,040 --> 03:02:04,720 Speaker 1: like you said, I'm versus. I can do a lot. 3728 03:02:05,040 --> 03:02:07,400 Speaker 1: But what's because he asked me to do something and 3729 03:02:08,000 --> 03:02:10,440 Speaker 1: lock me in there, and I'm sure the sky's the limit. 3730 03:02:11,120 --> 03:02:14,240 Speaker 1: Is there a role that you're more comfortable in right 3731 03:02:14,320 --> 03:02:18,720 Speaker 1: now coming out of Georgia than others? Yeah? I mean 3732 03:02:19,160 --> 03:02:22,720 Speaker 1: this naturally. I'm a pass rusher, Uh, get to the quarterback. 3733 03:02:22,840 --> 03:02:25,640 Speaker 1: Just I've been working on that a lot and I'm 3734 03:02:25,760 --> 03:02:28,480 Speaker 1: looking forward to getting to show that. But in my 3735 03:02:29,120 --> 03:02:32,119 Speaker 1: being a pass rush I'm probably the most comfortable, uh, 3736 03:02:32,600 --> 03:02:35,800 Speaker 1: guy that can pass for us, that can also drop 3737 03:02:35,959 --> 03:02:38,560 Speaker 1: into space and just do a lot of different things 3738 03:02:38,760 --> 03:02:42,920 Speaker 1: like my valuable, very valuable. You know you're chiming Landing 3739 03:02:43,000 --> 03:02:46,720 Speaker 1: to the Giants is very fortuitous because a fellow Georgia linebacker, 3740 03:02:46,800 --> 03:02:50,440 Speaker 1: alec Ogletree from the Rams, was just treated here recently 3741 03:02:50,560 --> 03:02:53,000 Speaker 1: during the off season. How well do you know him, 3742 03:02:53,040 --> 03:02:55,240 Speaker 1: because I know he's very proud of his Bulldogs and 3743 03:02:55,320 --> 03:03:00,880 Speaker 1: follows that club very closely. Oh yeah, I'm looking forward 3744 03:03:00,920 --> 03:03:04,440 Speaker 1: to over gonna be there a like you mean that 3745 03:03:04,520 --> 03:03:06,520 Speaker 1: have a big brother, that's a big bro to me. Um, 3746 03:03:07,480 --> 03:03:09,640 Speaker 1: just growing up watching him at Georgia, even in the 3747 03:03:09,640 --> 03:03:12,720 Speaker 1: recruit prices, just seeing seeing the stuff he did. So 3748 03:03:12,800 --> 03:03:14,720 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to getting up there and getting the 3749 03:03:15,200 --> 03:03:18,320 Speaker 1: tedded U and be with another dog, that's for sure. 3750 03:03:18,720 --> 03:03:21,600 Speaker 1: The guys besides him that you model yourself after as 3751 03:03:21,640 --> 03:03:26,560 Speaker 1: a player, Oh yeah, the Marcus where this off grip 3752 03:03:26,920 --> 03:03:30,680 Speaker 1: just because the type of player he is, the type 3753 03:03:30,720 --> 03:03:32,800 Speaker 1: player he is now definitely a type player I see 3754 03:03:32,840 --> 03:03:35,760 Speaker 1: myself game and the he wasn't I see myself then 3755 03:03:35,840 --> 03:03:39,160 Speaker 1: in the future. But just as even as he came 3756 03:03:39,160 --> 03:03:43,440 Speaker 1: into the league a little bit underside, not even under side, 3757 03:03:43,560 --> 03:03:46,200 Speaker 1: just not not as big. I see myself developing into 3758 03:03:46,320 --> 03:03:49,920 Speaker 1: something like that. Lorenzo, you absolutely were join Lorenzo Card 3759 03:03:49,920 --> 03:03:52,720 Speaker 1: of the Giants, third round pick, linebacker round at Georgia. Um, 3760 03:03:53,280 --> 03:03:55,480 Speaker 1: you blew up the combine. You would some of the 3761 03:03:55,800 --> 03:03:58,760 Speaker 1: best numbers at your position. Frankly in the history of 3762 03:03:58,800 --> 03:04:02,000 Speaker 1: the combine going back third years as a linebacker. How 3763 03:04:02,040 --> 03:04:05,800 Speaker 1: do you think you take those athletic traits and translate 3764 03:04:05,879 --> 03:04:08,080 Speaker 1: them onto the field to make you as good as 3765 03:04:08,120 --> 03:04:12,560 Speaker 1: a football player as you are? Yeah, just play, just 3766 03:04:12,680 --> 03:04:15,680 Speaker 1: play with speed. A lot of that same speed a 3767 03:04:15,720 --> 03:04:17,760 Speaker 1: lot of guys can't keep up with, especially in the 3768 03:04:17,840 --> 03:04:23,840 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Uh, Georgia were paying ourselves on just hanging 3769 03:04:23,920 --> 03:04:26,480 Speaker 1: in there and being the last guy standing. And that 3770 03:04:26,720 --> 03:04:29,120 Speaker 1: just really carried into my blood. It's part of my 3771 03:04:29,240 --> 03:04:35,480 Speaker 1: DNA now. So people, and I'm sure, I'm I'm I'm 3772 03:04:35,520 --> 03:04:40,520 Speaker 1: at the Giants and it is the same thing out there.

Just want to say, first off, I follow 3847 03:08:41,560 --> 03:08:43,200 Speaker 1: you both a gentim on on Twitter, and you both 3848 03:08:43,200 --> 03:08:45,080 Speaker 1: are amazing with with your information. Thanks a lot. I 3849 03:08:45,160 --> 03:08:47,240 Speaker 1: appreciate you following. Thank you very much. Happy to know 3850 03:08:47,280 --> 03:08:52,280 Speaker 1: at least one of you guys aren't bots. I just 3851 03:08:52,400 --> 03:08:55,520 Speaker 1: had a question. I'm not necessarily shocked, but kind of puzzled. 3852 03:08:55,680 --> 03:08:58,680 Speaker 1: Was there any bad information on Tyrrell Crosby. I'm wondering 3853 03:08:58,720 --> 03:09:01,200 Speaker 1: why we want b J Hall over him when getting 3854 03:09:01,280 --> 03:09:03,160 Speaker 1: had a chance to get a starting right tackle out 3855 03:09:03,160 --> 03:09:05,480 Speaker 1: of Crows, but he didn't give up a one quarterback 3856 03:09:05,560 --> 03:09:08,000 Speaker 1: kit or a fact the whole year last year. You know, 3857 03:09:08,080 --> 03:09:10,320 Speaker 1: it's a good question. I think part of that is 3858 03:09:10,440 --> 03:09:13,920 Speaker 1: scheme translation. As I mentioned Oregon. You know, they play 3859 03:09:13,959 --> 03:09:15,520 Speaker 1: a scheme where they don't have their hand in the 3860 03:09:15,600 --> 03:09:18,440 Speaker 1: dirt really, So I think that's probably something for a 3861 03:09:18,480 --> 03:09:21,480 Speaker 1: guy like Dave Geedlman really like super physical players. And again, 3862 03:09:21,560 --> 03:09:24,400 Speaker 1: like we mentioned, he's not the most physical guy. But 3863 03:09:24,520 --> 03:09:27,280 Speaker 1: I have not heard of any information medically or off 3864 03:09:27,360 --> 03:09:30,440 Speaker 1: the field that would be a big time red flag 3865 03:09:30,520 --> 03:09:31,960 Speaker 1: for him. I think the Giants just sat b J. 3866 03:09:32,080 --> 03:09:34,920 Speaker 1: Hill was a better player. Yeah, you know, I will 3867 03:09:34,959 --> 03:09:37,680 Speaker 1: tell you this. And again, we do as much research 3868 03:09:37,760 --> 03:09:39,960 Speaker 1: as we can. We'll look at tapes, we'll talk to 3869 03:09:40,120 --> 03:09:43,600 Speaker 1: as we did previewing the draft every every day, in 3870 03:09:43,720 --> 03:09:46,200 Speaker 1: case you're not a regular on bb K, every day. 3871 03:09:46,280 --> 03:09:49,040 Speaker 1: We picked different schools, and we got a hold of 3872 03:09:49,240 --> 03:09:52,920 Speaker 1: media guys, radio guys, newspaper guys in Oregon, right, And yeah, 3873 03:09:52,959 --> 03:09:56,000 Speaker 1: I didn't and and and so we dig in with 3874 03:09:56,200 --> 03:09:59,760 Speaker 1: the guys who know these players better than anybody to 3875 03:10:00,000 --> 03:10:03,440 Speaker 1: try to uncover anything that we can positively and negatively 3876 03:10:03,480 --> 03:10:05,959 Speaker 1: about them. And you know, I'm gonna look back here 3877 03:10:06,000 --> 03:10:08,680 Speaker 1: again at Crosby, and what do I have for Crosby. 3878 03:10:09,720 --> 03:10:11,720 Speaker 1: I'll be darned all I have here There was a 3879 03:10:11,840 --> 03:10:15,200 Speaker 1: minor foot issue. That's it. It was not it was 3880 03:10:15,320 --> 03:10:19,840 Speaker 1: not something significant. I just minor foot. I can't see 3881 03:10:19,959 --> 03:10:22,360 Speaker 1: that that would drop him this far. In any event, 3882 03:10:22,760 --> 03:10:25,680 Speaker 1: he's not he's not. Uh, he's still on the board, 3883 03:10:25,760 --> 03:10:28,320 Speaker 1: hasn't been picked. Maybe if he's there in the fourth round, 3884 03:10:28,400 --> 03:10:32,600 Speaker 1: maybe the Giants take him in. Hey, look, he'd be 3885 03:10:32,720 --> 03:10:35,640 Speaker 1: good value based on his film in the fourth round. 3886 03:10:35,680 --> 03:10:41,080 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt about that than he sure. 3887 03:10:41,120 --> 03:10:43,000 Speaker 1: Thank thanks for calling it good stuff. Appreciate you being 3888 03:10:43,040 --> 03:10:45,520 Speaker 1: part of the program. Uh, let's go to Duke in 3889 03:10:45,680 --> 03:10:48,800 Speaker 1: Queen's He's up next, I Duke, Hey, guys, how's he 3890 03:10:48,879 --> 03:10:52,840 Speaker 1: going doing well? Hey? I wanted to ask, out of 3891 03:10:52,959 --> 03:10:55,120 Speaker 1: all the pigs that we've drafted so far, do you 3892 03:10:55,160 --> 03:10:59,360 Speaker 1: see everyone's starting like from day one of this upcoming season? Um? 3893 03:10:59,520 --> 03:11:02,560 Speaker 1: I think both pawn. I believe that Will Hernandez and 3894 03:11:02,840 --> 03:11:04,960 Speaker 1: I think San Barkley might build the funds way onto 3895 03:11:04,959 --> 03:11:06,720 Speaker 1: the field and on day one. I'm not sure about that, 3896 03:11:06,840 --> 03:11:10,720 Speaker 1: but yet I think those two guys for sure. I 3897 03:11:11,280 --> 03:11:16,160 Speaker 1: thinking Barkley practice squad Carter. Carter has the athleticism to 3898 03:11:16,280 --> 03:11:20,760 Speaker 1: do it. I think trying to find his spot where 3899 03:11:20,840 --> 03:11:24,680 Speaker 1: he's most effective might take some time. I think Carter 3900 03:11:24,879 --> 03:11:27,800 Speaker 1: off the bat will be a sub package guy that 3901 03:11:27,879 --> 03:11:32,480 Speaker 1: will play maybe the snaps to start the year, and 3902 03:11:32,520 --> 03:11:34,560 Speaker 1: they'll be used a lot as a pass rusher, and 3903 03:11:34,640 --> 03:11:36,960 Speaker 1: then they'll try to work him into the defense and 3904 03:11:37,080 --> 03:11:39,040 Speaker 1: expand his game as a running chase guy and a 3905 03:11:39,040 --> 03:11:40,320 Speaker 1: guy that can do a little bit of coverage. What 3906 03:11:40,320 --> 03:11:43,959 Speaker 1: do you think about that, Paul, I think I'm gonna 3907 03:11:44,040 --> 03:11:46,440 Speaker 1: reserve the right to to make a decision on that 3908 03:11:46,680 --> 03:11:50,160 Speaker 1: until I see him here. Give me a guess, he guess, 3909 03:11:50,320 --> 03:11:52,360 Speaker 1: give me a guest. I think I think right now. 3910 03:11:52,920 --> 03:11:57,640 Speaker 1: My guess is he's gonna take the Devon role. Yes, 3911 03:11:57,720 --> 03:12:00,720 Speaker 1: because I think right now Kareem martinon ver In are 3912 03:12:00,800 --> 03:12:04,560 Speaker 1: the two starting outsidelnebackers. That's how and I think Carter, 3913 03:12:04,879 --> 03:12:07,959 Speaker 1: I think on sub package, I think Cree Martin moves 3914 03:12:08,000 --> 03:12:10,440 Speaker 1: inside is the three technique. I think Carter and Vernon 3915 03:12:10,440 --> 03:12:12,520 Speaker 1: put their hands on the dirt and as you would say, 3916 03:12:13,000 --> 03:12:16,040 Speaker 1: foom and rushed the pastor Paul. And that's about as 3917 03:12:16,080 --> 03:12:18,560 Speaker 1: far as I'm gonna go right now, because we certainly 3918 03:12:18,600 --> 03:12:20,720 Speaker 1: need to see him here, see what Betcha wants to 3919 03:12:20,760 --> 03:12:23,640 Speaker 1: do with him. But but I just think I think 3920 03:12:23,760 --> 03:12:26,200 Speaker 1: right now he's Devon Kannard to start off and he 3921 03:12:26,320 --> 03:12:28,840 Speaker 1: will give this team significant snaps. I'm telling you that 3922 03:12:29,000 --> 03:12:32,000 Speaker 1: right now. He is a player. Okay, and I have 3923 03:12:32,040 --> 03:12:35,400 Speaker 1: another question, Um, do you think we can get somebody 3924 03:12:35,440 --> 03:12:38,920 Speaker 1: else for Oline? Or is that the rest of the draft. 3925 03:12:39,680 --> 03:12:42,040 Speaker 1: A couple of names I'll give you. I'll give you 3926 03:12:42,080 --> 03:12:44,600 Speaker 1: a couple of names. Okay, Crosby, we've already talked about. 3927 03:12:44,720 --> 03:12:47,880 Speaker 1: If he drops Jamaco Jones. Okay, you mentioned Jones. You 3928 03:12:48,000 --> 03:12:52,720 Speaker 1: like Jones? Orlando Brown. I don't know about Orlando Brown, 3929 03:12:52,840 --> 03:12:55,480 Speaker 1: but I suppose right I'm just throwing names out there. 3930 03:12:55,640 --> 03:13:00,480 Speaker 1: I'll give you a guy I like. I like Christian 3931 03:13:00,560 --> 03:13:03,560 Speaker 1: from Louisville. He he just went, did he really? He 3932 03:13:03,720 --> 03:13:08,440 Speaker 1: just went? Yeah? The Redskins, No, the re stop making 3933 03:13:08,480 --> 03:13:11,200 Speaker 1: me name names. They keep getting taken off the board 3934 03:13:11,240 --> 03:13:12,960 Speaker 1: every time my name off. You were in a good mood, 3935 03:13:13,000 --> 03:13:16,360 Speaker 1: like twenty minutes ago. What the hell? Cald Down? We 3936 03:13:16,520 --> 03:13:18,240 Speaker 1: but then the day to go with this, Paul, Relax? 3937 03:13:18,959 --> 03:13:21,040 Speaker 1: How about this? Yeah? I want to throw a couple 3938 03:13:21,040 --> 03:13:23,640 Speaker 1: of names. Will Richardson is a guy that I think 3939 03:13:23,680 --> 03:13:26,520 Speaker 1: could be a Day three picket tackle. And you want 3940 03:13:26,520 --> 03:13:28,440 Speaker 1: to really you want to sleep on somebody is the 3941 03:13:28,480 --> 03:13:33,040 Speaker 1: Western Michigan kids. Still there. Uh chakumafor yes, he is 3942 03:13:33,040 --> 03:13:34,720 Speaker 1: still there. He's still on the board. Do you know why? 3943 03:13:34,760 --> 03:13:36,880 Speaker 1: I like to as a And this is not a 3944 03:13:36,920 --> 03:13:38,880 Speaker 1: guy that's gonna start right away. This is a project. 3945 03:13:39,520 --> 03:13:42,960 Speaker 1: Desmond Harrison out of West Georgia. He originally went to 3946 03:13:43,040 --> 03:13:45,240 Speaker 1: North Carolina, had a couple off the field things, he 3947 03:13:45,320 --> 03:13:49,080 Speaker 1: transferred to West Georgia and he is a great athlete. 3948 03:13:49,160 --> 03:13:51,800 Speaker 1: He's six six. He ran a four nine at the 3949 03:13:51,879 --> 03:13:54,600 Speaker 1: combine for an offensive tackle, which is excellent. He's a 3950 03:13:54,640 --> 03:13:56,920 Speaker 1: little light in the behind now, but he's a guy 3951 03:13:57,000 --> 03:13:59,440 Speaker 1: that has some tools. Is maybe a fifth round project 3952 03:13:59,520 --> 03:14:01,360 Speaker 1: at offense attack. I want to go back to a 3953 03:14:01,480 --> 03:14:05,119 Speaker 1: core four first s Western Michigan, three years starter, two 3954 03:14:05,240 --> 03:14:10,200 Speaker 1: years starter at left tackle, six six three. If you 3955 03:14:10,680 --> 03:14:15,200 Speaker 1: if Crosby is gone, a core of four would be 3956 03:14:15,280 --> 03:14:17,080 Speaker 1: a guy if you're really looking to pick up an 3957 03:14:17,120 --> 03:14:20,200 Speaker 1: offensive tackle in the fourth round, that's where I would go. 3958 03:14:20,520 --> 03:14:22,959 Speaker 1: But I would also warn you of this. The Giants 3959 03:14:23,040 --> 03:14:25,360 Speaker 1: could certainly at a corner, and there may be some 3960 03:14:25,520 --> 03:14:29,800 Speaker 1: value with corner in the fourth round too. But besides Crosby, 3961 03:14:30,240 --> 03:14:34,840 Speaker 1: who what what's the one player you guys? She may 3962 03:14:34,879 --> 03:14:38,920 Speaker 1: be possibly starting the Seine out of like every position, Like, 3963 03:14:39,080 --> 03:14:41,800 Speaker 1: what's the one player that might have like the quickest 3964 03:14:41,879 --> 03:14:47,080 Speaker 1: start for the Giants that that's still available. Yes, that's tough. 3965 03:14:47,160 --> 03:14:48,959 Speaker 1: I mean you're talking about the guys that are gonna 3966 03:14:48,959 --> 03:14:50,760 Speaker 1: be available in the fourth round that you want to 3967 03:14:50,800 --> 03:14:53,720 Speaker 1: start right away. That's generally not how the draft works 3968 03:14:54,959 --> 03:14:59,440 Speaker 1: as soon as possible. That's a good question. You know 3969 03:14:59,560 --> 03:15:01,760 Speaker 1: who's a ailable and I don't think he's gonna be 3970 03:15:01,800 --> 03:15:03,440 Speaker 1: available on the Giants pick of the fourth And I'll 3971 03:15:03,440 --> 03:15:06,600 Speaker 1: be Ronnie Harrison. How is he still on the board? 3972 03:15:07,560 --> 03:15:11,560 Speaker 1: How is he on the board? I mean, he's got 3973 03:15:11,600 --> 03:15:16,840 Speaker 1: to be the guy, right, I don't know, no, no, no, 3974 03:15:16,920 --> 03:15:22,160 Speaker 1: no no. I I am the Jinks, So I'm not 3975 03:15:22,200 --> 03:15:24,560 Speaker 1: going to mention his name. You said his name? I did? 3976 03:15:24,680 --> 03:15:33,840 Speaker 1: Lorenzo Carter lasted? Yes he did. Maybe the jinks is broken? Broken? Nice, Okay, 3977 03:15:36,320 --> 03:15:39,000 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I think sorry about that. Let's go to 3978 03:15:39,120 --> 03:15:43,000 Speaker 1: a Walter in Nebraska online one. What's up? Author? It 3979 03:15:43,200 --> 03:15:45,640 Speaker 1: was going on? Fellers man?

And um, I'm 3986 03:16:02,640 --> 03:16:06,200 Speaker 1: happy about the uh Hernandez pick Man. That guy looks 3987 03:16:06,280 --> 03:16:08,120 Speaker 1: like I just wouldn't want to run into him on 3988 03:16:08,160 --> 03:16:09,960 Speaker 1: the alley and if I did, hopefully he was on 3989 03:16:10,120 --> 03:16:15,879 Speaker 1: my side. So um, you know the Barkley pick. Um, 3990 03:16:17,200 --> 03:16:19,360 Speaker 1: I was just it was weird. I was sitting there 3991 03:16:19,400 --> 03:16:23,280 Speaker 1: watching the draft and I'm sitting there thinking like I 3992 03:16:23,440 --> 03:16:26,000 Speaker 1: was hoping for Rosen that we would go to Rosen, 3993 03:16:26,320 --> 03:16:29,520 Speaker 1: and um, I just my mind really wasn't made up. 3994 03:16:29,560 --> 03:16:31,959 Speaker 1: So I just found myself yelling.

But 4010 03:17:23,080 --> 03:17:25,360 Speaker 1: in any event, man, I'm just looking forward to the 4011 03:17:25,440 --> 03:17:28,160 Speaker 1: season and and I just want to thank you guys, 4012 03:17:28,240 --> 03:17:30,280 Speaker 1: and just like everyone else has been thanking you guys 4013 03:17:30,320 --> 03:17:32,840 Speaker 1: all the hard work that you guys have put in 4014 03:17:32,959 --> 03:17:36,480 Speaker 1: in all the draft prospects and reporters and coaches and 4015 03:17:36,560 --> 03:17:39,520 Speaker 1: people calling in so um, thanks a lot for you guys. 4016 03:17:39,600 --> 03:17:41,840 Speaker 1: And I do watch the show every day and the 4017 03:17:41,920 --> 03:17:44,680 Speaker 1: only time that I really don't watch the show. I 4018 03:17:44,720 --> 03:17:47,080 Speaker 1: didn't watch you too much during the during the season 4019 03:17:47,160 --> 03:17:49,880 Speaker 1: with a crappy season that we had. But other than that, 4020 03:17:50,080 --> 03:17:52,440 Speaker 1: once the all season started, I got up all pumped 4021 03:17:52,480 --> 03:17:56,320 Speaker 1: up about what's gonna happen.

And then again, we're 4027 03:18:13,760 --> 03:18:15,440 Speaker 1: gonna try to hang onto we get b J. Hill. 4028 03:18:15,480 --> 03:18:17,240 Speaker 1: Any word on that yet, Natalie, not yet? All right, 4029 03:18:17,240 --> 03:18:19,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna give it a shot. We got one more caller. 4030 03:18:19,720 --> 03:18:21,480 Speaker 1: I want to update the board here because a bunch 4031 03:18:21,480 --> 03:18:24,680 Speaker 1: of guys have gone um since we were talking on 4032 03:18:24,800 --> 03:18:27,680 Speaker 1: the phone with Lorenzo Carter. So let me knock through 4033 03:18:27,720 --> 03:18:31,280 Speaker 1: all these guys, right, okay, UM seven overall, sixth round, 4034 03:18:31,600 --> 03:18:34,920 Speaker 1: sixth overall pick. Rather in the third round, Fred Warner linebacker, 4035 03:18:35,000 --> 03:18:36,920 Speaker 1: b y U. That's one of my guys that I liked, 4036 03:18:37,080 --> 03:18:41,600 Speaker 1: good coverage linebacker. Um seventh pick in the third round, 4037 03:18:41,680 --> 03:18:45,280 Speaker 1: seventy one overall to the Broncos. Royce Freeman, running back 4038 03:18:45,360 --> 03:18:47,920 Speaker 1: out of Oregon. I thought a little little little early 4039 03:18:48,080 --> 03:18:53,920 Speaker 1: for him, but good powerful back questioned, no question. Um. 4040 03:18:53,959 --> 03:18:55,560 Speaker 1: I thought he was an early Day three, but I 4041 03:18:55,640 --> 03:18:57,400 Speaker 1: think here it's fine. I think he's probably the next 4042 03:18:57,400 --> 03:18:59,000 Speaker 1: best running back out there, at least close to it, 4043 03:18:59,080 --> 03:19:01,440 Speaker 1: depending on the style of back that you want. A 4044 03:19:01,520 --> 03:19:03,960 Speaker 1: New York Jets pick a guy that I like, Nathan Shepherd, 4045 03:19:04,040 --> 03:19:07,840 Speaker 1: defensive tackle out of Fort Hayes State. Paul, there was 4046 03:19:07,959 --> 03:19:12,760 Speaker 1: one person at the Senior Bowl that beat Will Hernandez 4047 03:19:12,959 --> 03:19:16,960 Speaker 1: more than once. It was Nathan Shepherd at He was 4048 03:19:17,120 --> 03:19:19,400 Speaker 1: very good and then he heard himself. He actually I 4049 03:19:19,480 --> 03:19:22,280 Speaker 1: think the third day of practice or wasn't at the game. 4050 03:19:22,320 --> 03:19:23,879 Speaker 1: He might have broke his foot at the Senior Bowl 4051 03:19:24,320 --> 03:19:26,080 Speaker 1: and he couldn't could have finished off the week, but 4052 03:19:26,200 --> 03:19:30,560 Speaker 1: he was good. Has probably stepped on him. Uh, Miami, 4053 03:19:30,640 --> 03:19:34,040 Speaker 1: it's seventy three. Picked Jerome Baker, linebacker out of Ohio State, 4054 03:19:34,080 --> 03:19:37,440 Speaker 1: and you've talked about him. Um. The Redskins then selected 4055 03:19:37,440 --> 03:19:40,760 Speaker 1: Paul's guy, Jaren Christian offensive tackle out Louisville, which I 4056 03:19:40,760 --> 03:19:43,400 Speaker 1: think is a pretty good value. Picking around three Chiefs 4057 03:19:43,440 --> 03:19:46,879 Speaker 1: McK Derek Noddy of b J. Hill style defensive tackle 4058 03:19:46,959 --> 03:19:49,280 Speaker 1: that's gonna stop the run out of Florida State. And 4059 03:19:49,360 --> 03:19:52,760 Speaker 1: then the Steelers and Jodah Toles predicted this in around two. 4060 03:19:52,879 --> 03:19:56,280 Speaker 1: It didn't happen, but happen around three. Mason Rudolph to 4061 03:19:56,360 --> 03:20:01,720 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, perhaps trying to find the air apparent too. 4062 03:20:02,959 --> 03:20:07,199 Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger and the Bengals pick is in at seventy 4063 03:20:07,720 --> 03:20:10,680 Speaker 1: overall pick and round number three. All Right, Natalie, I'm 4064 03:20:10,680 --> 03:20:12,240 Speaker 1: putting a time clock on this. We don't take these 4065 03:20:12,240 --> 03:20:14,440 Speaker 1: two calls. We don't have b J. Yeah, we're gonna 4066 03:20:14,440 --> 03:20:16,600 Speaker 1: say goodbye. Okay, hold me to that if I don't 4067 03:20:16,640 --> 03:20:19,160 Speaker 1: throw the water at me. Okay, let's put to Rodrigo 4068 03:20:19,360 --> 03:20:24,680 Speaker 1: in Texas. He's on next. Hi, Rodrigo, Hey you guys. 4069 03:20:26,600 --> 03:20:28,600 Speaker 1: I was wondering what the draft with the good draft 4070 03:20:28,640 --> 03:20:32,000 Speaker 1: picks that we've been picking up so far in a 4071 03:20:32,120 --> 03:20:35,200 Speaker 1: position to uh perhaps pick up das Ran and so 4072 03:20:35,440 --> 03:20:38,520 Speaker 1: will we even have the capital go ahead, Paul, I've 4073 03:20:38,520 --> 03:20:40,240 Speaker 1: had my spiel on this too many times. I can't 4074 03:20:40,280 --> 03:20:42,560 Speaker 1: do anything. I'm gonna make it real simple. There are 4075 03:20:42,800 --> 03:20:47,560 Speaker 1: several hurdles you'd have to clear before that's realistic. Hurdles. Yes, 4076 03:20:47,800 --> 03:20:50,920 Speaker 1: one would be the medical, the other would be the economic. 4077 03:20:51,280 --> 03:20:53,960 Speaker 1: The other would be the locker room chatter and and 4078 03:20:54,040 --> 03:20:57,760 Speaker 1: the reputation that he would bring into any new locker room. Uh. 4079 03:20:57,920 --> 03:21:00,200 Speaker 1: Those things have to be cleared before you can even 4080 03:21:00,280 --> 03:21:04,440 Speaker 1: realistically assess the chances that he would be uh coming 4081 03:21:04,520 --> 03:21:07,400 Speaker 1: into this uh into this situation. So I'm gonna say 4082 03:21:07,520 --> 03:21:10,680 Speaker 1: right now, with three high hurdles to clear. Uh, it 4083 03:21:10,840 --> 03:21:13,520 Speaker 1: is highly unlikely. It's not to say that you can 4084 03:21:13,600 --> 03:21:16,600 Speaker 1: never say never, but that's that's a lot of doing 4085 03:21:16,720 --> 03:21:22,240 Speaker 1: right there. I appreciate the call. I will say this, 4086 03:21:22,800 --> 03:21:24,840 Speaker 1: I do expect the Giants to to bring in a 4087 03:21:24,920 --> 03:21:27,960 Speaker 1: six three or six ft four wide receiver at some 4088 03:21:28,200 --> 03:21:30,720 Speaker 1: point over the course of the next couple of weeks, 4089 03:21:30,760 --> 03:21:34,680 Speaker 1: if not in this draft on undrafted rookie free agents. 4090 03:21:34,680 --> 03:21:36,200 Speaker 1: You know who one guy we should have mentioned in 4091 03:21:36,240 --> 03:21:38,840 Speaker 1: the third round that we didn't that wouldn ame me 4092 03:21:38,879 --> 03:21:41,160 Speaker 1: is st. Brown. We did mention him earlier. Yeah, but 4093 03:21:41,200 --> 03:21:42,840 Speaker 1: not for the Giants. Not not as a guy we 4094 03:21:42,879 --> 03:21:45,120 Speaker 1: thought the Giants would pick and and because I didn't 4095 03:21:45,160 --> 03:21:48,360 Speaker 1: think that with the value in the need, the other 4096 03:21:48,440 --> 03:21:50,800 Speaker 1: positions had better value and need. For me, I think 4097 03:21:50,879 --> 03:21:52,720 Speaker 1: better need. But I think this is around the time 4098 03:21:52,760 --> 03:21:54,680 Speaker 1: where I think St. Brown is gonna go. I I 4099 03:21:54,959 --> 03:21:58,240 Speaker 1: definitely think that this would be around the ballpark, but 4100 03:21:58,879 --> 03:22:01,440 Speaker 1: that the need didn't match the value as well as 4101 03:22:01,480 --> 03:22:03,600 Speaker 1: the other guys did. By the way, a couple of 4102 03:22:03,720 --> 03:22:06,440 Speaker 1: nice picks for the Bengals here, all right, They back 4103 03:22:06,520 --> 03:22:08,600 Speaker 1: to back picks. I'm not sure which one of the 4104 03:22:08,680 --> 03:22:11,120 Speaker 1: eighteen thousand trains that have happened over the past two 4105 03:22:11,200 --> 03:22:13,280 Speaker 1: days got him this pick, but they do have it 4106 03:22:13,760 --> 03:22:17,360 Speaker 1: via Kansas City from Washington. First. It's seventies seven overall. 4107 03:22:17,440 --> 03:22:19,920 Speaker 1: This was their own pick. They took Sam Hubbard, defensive 4108 03:22:20,000 --> 03:22:23,240 Speaker 1: end out of Ohio State. That nice, nice pick for them, 4109 03:22:25,200 --> 03:22:27,760 Speaker 1: and then they just selected and they had on the board. 4110 03:22:27,760 --> 03:22:29,160 Speaker 1: They took it down and now I have to look 4111 03:22:29,200 --> 03:22:32,440 Speaker 1: it up. Belie Jefferson, the linebacker round of Texas, who 4112 03:22:32,640 --> 03:22:36,640 Speaker 1: a very raw player. UM similar to Lorenzo Carter in 4113 03:22:36,760 --> 03:22:40,160 Speaker 1: that he's a very good athlete but really hasn't found 4114 03:22:40,320 --> 03:22:43,160 Speaker 1: his way yet and where he's gonna wind up. But 4115 03:22:43,440 --> 03:22:45,000 Speaker 1: he's out of Texas, and he was one of those 4116 03:22:45,040 --> 03:22:46,800 Speaker 1: five star recruits out of Texas, one of those big 4117 03:22:46,840 --> 03:22:49,400 Speaker 1: time Texas football players, but he never really kind of 4118 03:22:49,440 --> 03:22:52,199 Speaker 1: figured it out at the pro level. Of the Seahawks 4119 03:22:52,280 --> 03:22:56,000 Speaker 1: on the board, this is from their trade with the Cardinals, UM, 4120 03:22:56,640 --> 03:22:58,920 Speaker 1: when they tried to acquire extra picks when they moved back. 4121 03:22:59,280 --> 03:23:01,600 Speaker 1: I believe in the first round. So we'll see what 4122 03:23:01,680 --> 03:23:04,920 Speaker 1: the Seahawks pick here with the seventy ninth overall pick, 4123 03:23:04,959 --> 03:23:07,199 Speaker 1: fifteen pick and round number three, and they pick another 4124 03:23:07,240 --> 03:23:09,160 Speaker 1: pass rusher pass rusher is a little bit of a 4125 03:23:09,200 --> 03:23:15,440 Speaker 1: runnere Polly dots green defensive end out of the USC, 4126 03:23:15,680 --> 03:23:17,520 Speaker 1: and you know what we're seeing in your Paul. We're 4127 03:23:17,560 --> 03:23:20,200 Speaker 1: seeing all the traits guys Maine reads another guy. He's 4128 03:23:20,240 --> 03:23:22,720 Speaker 1: an athlete that does a lot of things. When I 4129 03:23:22,760 --> 03:23:24,400 Speaker 1: remember we did that, you weren't on the air with 4130 03:23:24,440 --> 03:23:26,240 Speaker 1: me and Lance. We did the USC guy and he said, 4131 03:23:26,520 --> 03:23:28,360 Speaker 1: if he stays in school another year, he could be 4132 03:23:28,400 --> 03:23:31,360 Speaker 1: a first round pick, if he cleans up his technique 4133 03:23:31,360 --> 03:23:34,080 Speaker 1: and becomes a better football player. Came out early, good athlete. 4134 03:23:34,080 --> 03:23:35,760 Speaker 1: They think they could turn him into something in Seattle. 4135 03:23:35,800 --> 03:23:39,199 Speaker 1: Also came off an a c L injury he played 4136 03:23:39,200 --> 03:23:41,160 Speaker 1: this year, though that was the prior season. I understand, 4137 03:23:41,240 --> 03:23:43,520 Speaker 1: of course, that's It's one thing that's already in the 4138 03:23:43,600 --> 03:23:45,600 Speaker 1: books on him, which is why I again, I think 4139 03:23:45,640 --> 03:23:47,320 Speaker 1: he would have been better off staying in school one 4140 03:23:47,360 --> 03:23:50,360 Speaker 1: more year. Um, all right, we'll take one more call 4141 03:23:50,440 --> 03:23:52,040 Speaker 1: here and we'll see if he can get b J. 4142 03:23:52,120 --> 03:23:53,720 Speaker 1: If we can't, nobody, we'll try to g him on 4143 03:23:53,760 --> 03:23:55,840 Speaker 1: tomorrow show. That'd be great. Okay, let's go to Josh 4144 03:23:55,879 --> 03:23:58,720 Speaker 1: and San Diego. He's our final caller.

They know more about them 4170 03:24:59,879 --> 03:25:05,040 Speaker 1: the we do, so why shouldn't we bring them to you. Yeah, 4171 03:25:05,080 --> 03:25:08,480 Speaker 1: and I actually bought the Dane Burglars Draft Guide that 4172 03:25:08,560 --> 03:25:10,800 Speaker 1: you guys recommended, and that was a huge help just 4173 03:25:10,920 --> 03:25:14,240 Speaker 1: being with you know, all these stats. The only thing 4174 03:25:14,280 --> 03:25:16,640 Speaker 1: I wanted to say was I'm really happy with the 4175 03:25:16,720 --> 03:25:18,760 Speaker 1: draft pick. The only the only thing I feel bad 4176 03:25:18,879 --> 03:25:21,720 Speaker 1: for is Brett Jones, just because I think he's gonna 4177 03:25:21,800 --> 03:25:24,200 Speaker 1: look like a midget out there next to everyone else. 4178 03:25:25,400 --> 03:25:30,000 Speaker 1: You don't want the mommy on one side. And I'm 4179 03:25:30,040 --> 03:25:32,280 Speaker 1: glad you said no. I'm glad you said this those 4180 03:25:32,400 --> 03:25:34,680 Speaker 1: time out. This is such an important point and I 4181 03:25:34,800 --> 03:25:37,680 Speaker 1: forgot to mention it earlier. So thank you. When you 4182 03:25:37,800 --> 03:25:40,680 Speaker 1: have a bit of an undersized center and you can 4183 03:25:40,760 --> 03:25:45,400 Speaker 1: put two oversized guards either side of him, do you 4184 03:25:45,520 --> 03:25:48,199 Speaker 1: know how much better and how much easier that makes 4185 03:25:48,280 --> 03:25:50,080 Speaker 1: his job? If you have a chance a bot. Seriously, 4186 03:25:50,160 --> 03:25:51,959 Speaker 1: I did an interview with the Mommy the other day 4187 03:25:51,959 --> 03:25:54,800 Speaker 1: and Giants. He's next to me, I look like Lens. 4188 03:25:55,600 --> 03:25:58,280 Speaker 1: I saw that. I thought he's a big man. So this, 4189 03:25:58,600 --> 03:26:02,160 Speaker 1: this is very helpful of Brett Jones. Undersize center with 4190 03:26:02,480 --> 03:26:06,440 Speaker 1: two huge building blocks on each side. That's a that's 4191 03:26:06,440 --> 03:26:10,240 Speaker 1: a very big component. That's a good thing. I agree. Well, 4192 03:26:10,320 --> 03:26:12,560 Speaker 1: thank you, guys, and I can't wait for this season. 4193 03:26:12,600 --> 03:26:15,160 Speaker 1: Go big, thank you.

I want more picks. I want 4216 03:27:10,959 --> 03:27:14,000 Speaker 1: more players.
