Latest / The Jake Wimberly Podcast / Chris Landry breaks down the supply and demand for football players
Transcript
- 0:00Before we get you out of here. Well, I guess two questions.
- 0:03One. I got a question from a listener about Dayton Wade. He's an
- 0:06ole Miss wide receiver. How he called fifty five balls eight hundred and thirty
- 0:10yards four touchdowns? You know, receiver is so deep now, I mean
- 0:15there's, boy, there are good ones all over the place. You take
- 0:18a guy like Wade, who was second on the list, only one catch
- 0:21behind Trey Harris for ole Miss. Uh right, you know those types of
- 0:24guys though, I mean, I don't want to say they're a dime a
- 0:26dozen, but man, there's a lot of good receivers to pick from.
- 0:29Exactly. It's supplying to man. It's like the conversation they have about running
- 0:34backs. Well, the running backs are not important, No, no,
- 0:36no, they're every bit is important, as they always have been. The
- 0:40difference is is they're more of them. So when I talk about supplying to
- 0:44man, well, if you can, if you've got you know, fifteen
- 0:48guys that could maybe do certain things. Some that are a little bit better
- 0:52blockers, some are a little bit better receivers, some are a little bit
- 0:55better inside runners, some that are a little bit better in space. Well,
- 0:59you got the more fungible, there are more guys that you can go.
- 1:02I mean, it's it's like anything else. If you've got two airlines,
- 1:06you're gonna get gouged for your plane ticket, But if they've got twenty,
- 1:10the price is gonna come down. And and anything in the consumers.
- 1:12So there's a lot of receivers. It's a you know, the game of
- 1:18football at from the high school level on up is you have a lot more
- 1:21of those guys. So they're not enough roster spots to where it's gonna be
- 1:26very difficult to differentiate for for those type of guys backs and in receivers,
- 1:30but you know, quarterbacks, it's not the case. Not the real good
- 1:36ones. And and to me, the big guys, the big premiere you
- 1:41know, pass rushers, interior, defensive linemen, offensive tackles, those guys
- 1:48they are hard. The supply and demand factor are in favor of the players.
- 1:52They're not enough of them, but receivers are not. I think the
- 1:56young man will be, uh, somebody will be in the camp, you
- 2:00know, maybe a late pick. But when you start looking at the in
- 2:04stacking them all up, there's a whole bunch of guys you're right, that
- 2:07kind of look alike. Make sure to get him on x Landry Football also
