- 0:00Speaker 1: I never have any trouble finding anything, So it's the microphone.
- 0:03Speaker 1: Something's throwing me off here this morning. So I've spent
- 0:05Speaker 1: every single break trying to find things from the past.
- 0:09Speaker 1: So I guess that's the Draftma season. You know files
- 0:12Speaker 1: from Draftmas pass.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Well, I mean that is one of the visitors.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Yeah, you talk about draft mist right, You've got the
- 0:19Speaker 3: files of Draftmas present, the files of Draftmas.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Drafts, drafts from Christmas past, the draft miss drafts from
- 0:27Speaker 1: Draftmas pass. That's what Jacob Marley came to find out. Scrooge,
- 0:30Speaker 1: who did the Giants take seventh overall in nineteen seventy four? Again,
- 0:35Speaker 1: Oh that's right, all right, go back to sleep.
- 0:38Speaker 2: That's what they That's how the whole thing went down.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Didn't mean to didn't mean to wake you.
- 0:43Speaker 2: And there's important questions that need to be asked.
- 0:45Speaker 1: All right, Well, let's get to our stocking stuffers. They
- 0:48Speaker 1: are the draft rumors that are going on out there.
- 0:50Speaker 1: And yes, I know everybody calls me father Draftmas around town.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Everybody does.
- 0:57Speaker 1: I've earned that created this holiday for us here on
- 1:00Speaker 1: kJ R. But really the true godfather of the draft
- 1:04Speaker 1: is mel kiper Junior. So when mel Kiper Junior and
- 1:08Speaker 1: his helmeted hair and it's white helmet bastic delivery, decides
- 1:14Speaker 1: that today is my final mock draft, then we owe
- 1:18Speaker 1: it to mel Kiper Junior to point out a few
- 1:21Speaker 1: little rumors that he has mocked in his last mock
- 1:27Speaker 1: draft of the draft miss season. Okay, so that's what
- 1:30Speaker 1: we're gonna do today. We're dedicating this entirely to mel
- 1:34Speaker 1: and what he's speculating about the draft next Thursday. And
- 1:38Speaker 1: I would also point out, and I know I've done
- 1:40Speaker 1: this a few teams a few times this week, but
- 1:43Speaker 1: I think it is important to note a lot of
- 1:45Speaker 1: these guys throughout the process, they're evaluating players themselves. Mel's
- 1:51Speaker 1: does it year round, Daniel Jeremiah does it year round,
- 1:55Speaker 1: and then they do the combine and then they do
- 1:57Speaker 1: their own personal, you know, ranking system. But then during
- 2:02Speaker 1: the draft process they start leaning very heavily because they
- 2:06Speaker 1: want to get the picks right toward what they're hearing, okay,
- 2:09Speaker 1: and not really their own analysis. So if mel Kiper's
- 2:13Speaker 1: change something eight sleeps short of the NFL Draft, it
- 2:17Speaker 1: might mean that he knows something or he's been thrown
- 2:21Speaker 1: off by someone, But nonetheless, I think it's worth going
- 2:26Speaker 1: through his latest mock draft, and it's a full two rounder.
- 2:29Speaker 1: By the way. Let's start with what he's got the
- 2:31Speaker 1: Seahawks doing at number thirty two, Jadarian Price, the running
- 2:35Speaker 1: back out of Notre Dame. So you know, I don't
- 2:38Speaker 1: hate this idea if this as a whole, and I'm
- 2:43Speaker 1: not sure the Seahawks are recognizing it as such. I
- 2:46Speaker 1: don't think they're nearly as worried about it as we are.
- 2:49Speaker 1: But if it is a hole, and if you are
- 2:51Speaker 1: planning to address it in the first two days, then
- 2:54Speaker 1: why let the draft dictate who you're going to get.
- 2:57Speaker 1: You know you're not going to get Jeremiah lo right,
- 3:00Speaker 1: and you probably know that there's not gonna be any
- 3:04Speaker 1: more than two guys taken before you at thirty two.
- 3:11Speaker 1: So do you just say, hey, number one guys off
- 3:15Speaker 1: the board, we never had a shot at him. Let's
- 3:18Speaker 1: get our favorite running back. And let's not play around.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Let's not drop down out of the draft, let's not
- 3:24Speaker 1: drop into the second round. I mean, this is supposed
- 3:27Speaker 1: to be a down year for the NFL draft anyway,
- 3:29Speaker 1: Do we really need extra picks this year? So let's
- 3:32Speaker 1: just stick at thirty two, and let's get our favorite
- 3:35Speaker 1: running back in the draft not named Jeremiah Love, and
- 3:39Speaker 1: let's just go forward with that running back room. Maybe
- 3:42Speaker 1: that's the way to go. I mean, I know they
- 3:44Speaker 1: have other needs edge rusher, defensive backs, but maybe this
- 3:50Speaker 1: is such a pressing need that you have the opportunity
- 3:53Speaker 1: to get your favorite running back not Jeremiah Love in
- 3:57Speaker 1: the draft. So don't even screw around with it. Stick
- 4:00Speaker 1: and pick at thirty two and take your favorite.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Dude, right And in that case it makes sense.
- 4:06Speaker 3: It's interesting going over our three options yesterday though, Now
- 4:09Speaker 3: when I hear that, and I'm like, oh, ja Darien
- 4:11Speaker 3: Price at thirty two, okay, like because I liked the
- 4:14Speaker 3: other two options almost better than that one of the
- 4:17Speaker 3: three options you gave us yesterday.
- 4:19Speaker 1: And then Mike Washington Junior, by the way, Mel's got
- 4:22Speaker 1: him going fifty ninth to Minnesota, so he doesn't have
- 4:26Speaker 1: the have or fifty first to Minnesota, so.
- 4:28Speaker 2: He hasn't long gone by the tay get long.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Gone before he gets to sixty four. And so if
- 4:33Speaker 1: that's something that you're holding out hope for as a
- 4:36Speaker 1: Seahawk fan, maybe you just have an affinity toward Mike
- 4:38Speaker 1: Washington junior, and you think you can get him to
- 4:40Speaker 1: the second round. It's not feeling like he's going to
- 4:42Speaker 1: last till the end of the second round. It kind
- 4:45Speaker 1: of feels like his stock's pretty high and he might
- 4:47Speaker 1: go early second to mid second, and the Seahawks obviously
- 4:51Speaker 1: right now don't have a pick in that range. So
- 4:54Speaker 1: that's that's where we'll start. Second thing is this Ty
- 4:57Speaker 1: Simpson element of it. I've been saying through the entire process,
- 5:01Speaker 1: I kind of hope ty Simpson. Well, I do hope
- 5:02Speaker 1: ty Simpson is available at thirty two because it could
- 5:05Speaker 1: give the Seahawks some additional trade leverage to move out
- 5:09Speaker 1: of the first round and maybe get them more compensation
- 5:13Speaker 1: for that selection, because whoever's moving up wants to get
- 5:16Speaker 1: the quarterback because they want to get that fifth year option. Well,
- 5:19Speaker 1: ty Simpson, mel Kiper says, does not make it to
- 5:23Speaker 1: thirty two. He thinks that there's a trade up by Arizona,
- 5:27Speaker 1: which is the team I've been forecasting trade up by
- 5:31Speaker 1: Arizona past the Seahawks two number thirty, where the Miami
- 5:35Speaker 1: Dolphins are currently scheduled to pick that pick they got
- 5:38Speaker 1: from the Jalen Waddle trade from Denver. So that's where
- 5:42Speaker 1: they say Arizona moves up to thirty. They take ty
- 5:45Speaker 1: Simpson there and try to find their quarterback of the future.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Now they're in the post Kyler Murray era. The sexiest
- 5:53Speaker 1: thing that he does in his mock draft is at
- 5:56Speaker 1: number six, where the Cleveland Browns currently sit. They've been
- 5:59Speaker 1: rumored to one trade up, They've been rumored to want
- 6:01Speaker 1: to trade down. Mel says they're going to trade down
- 6:04Speaker 1: and they're going to trade with the team that has
- 6:07Speaker 1: been most rumored to be wanting to move up in
- 6:10Speaker 1: this draft, and that's the Dallas Cowboys. And so Dallas
- 6:14Speaker 1: Cleveland pull off a trade at number six so that
- 6:17Speaker 1: Dallas can get one of the freakish defensive front seven guys.
- 6:22Speaker 1: He already has Reese and Bailey off the board, so
- 6:25Speaker 1: he's got Dallas coming up and getting Sonny Styles, which
- 6:28Speaker 1: would be an interesting replacement for Micah Parsons, since Micah
- 6:32Speaker 1: Parson's game was speed and sunny. Styles is the athlete
- 6:36Speaker 1: in this draft, like considered the freak athlete in this
- 6:40Speaker 1: draft for size and speed. I'm not sure he's really
- 6:43Speaker 1: a proficient pass rusher, which is what they seem to
- 6:46Speaker 1: be looking for. But nonetheless that would be very interesting
- 6:49Speaker 1: to see the Cowboys and the Browns pull off a
- 6:52Speaker 1: shaken him up trade and the Cowboys come away with
- 6:54Speaker 1: Sonny Styles.
- 6:55Speaker 2: Yeah, which again still the best name in the draft
- 6:58Speaker 2: for sure.
- 7:00Speaker 1: And then his top five just quickly in our stocking
- 7:03Speaker 1: stuffer segment today are mel kiper junior only stocking stuffers segment,
- 7:07Speaker 1: he has have Mendoza going one to Vegas, David Bailey
- 7:10Speaker 1: from Texas Tech going to the Jets, Rvel Reese from
- 7:13Speaker 1: Ohio State going to the Cardinals at three, Jeremiah Love
- 7:16Speaker 1: of Notre Dame to Tennessee at four, and then Caleb
- 7:19Speaker 1: downs to the New York Giants at five, which I
- 7:22Speaker 1: think that's a lot more likely to happen than him
- 7:24Speaker 1: falling to around ten. I think that's a pretty much
- 7:29Speaker 1: a sure fire. He's going to be good pick in
- 7:32Speaker 1: the draft, maybe the most shore fire. All right, coming
- 7:35Speaker 1: up next, more on the draft from the Seahawks perspective,
- 7:38Speaker 1: Greg Bell's weekly visit with us at seven oh five,
- 7:41Speaker 1: plus your headlines, Chucking Buck Sports Radio ninety three point
- 7:44Speaker 1: three KJRFM.
- 7:51Speaker 4: A bunt drop down but shot away off the bag
- 7:54Speaker 4: and Luke.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Railey a bunt day six, Well, I'm overdue. Some might
- 7:58Speaker 1: even say the.
- 8:00Speaker 4: O two out towards center field, Harold covering some ground, rows,
- 8:06Speaker 4: ran and tags. Then he makes his way home and
- 8:08Speaker 4: dob Canzone does exactly that. It gets the job done
- 8:12Speaker 4: and gets the first run across the ball game one
- 8:14Speaker 4: nothing Maren.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Oh Aaron with a snide little comment.
- 8:21Speaker 2: Some would say, long overdue.
- 8:23Speaker 1: Few young people with your hatred for bunting. Seriously, that's
- 8:28Speaker 1: what it is, That's what it stems from. He hates.
- 8:30Speaker 1: He hates bunting like you gotta be kidding. You don't great,
- 8:35Speaker 1: You don't see that occasionally there it's warranted. It comes
- 8:40Speaker 1: in handy that it would be nice if we still
- 8:42Speaker 1: had people. I don't want them to bun as much
- 8:44Speaker 1: as they used to. But you don't see how it
- 8:46Speaker 1: can come in handy in a pinch, And if you're
- 8:49Speaker 1: good at it, if you're good at it, but nobody
- 8:51Speaker 1: works at it anymore, nobody's good at it anymore.
- 8:54Speaker 5: Luke Raley did it, but Luke Rayley is good at it,
- 8:56Speaker 5: and he uses it effectively and probably should use it
- 8:59Speaker 5: more because he's really good at laying that down anyway,
- 9:03Speaker 5: I still think there's a use for it.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I'm glad we don't use it nearly as much as
- 9:06Speaker 1: we used to, but boy, I love it when Luke
- 9:10Speaker 1: lays down a bunch and that should have turned into
- 9:12Speaker 1: a bigger inning than it actually was. That's Mariners TV
- 9:16Speaker 1: with the highlights last night, four to one loss. Mariners
- 9:19Speaker 1: take it on the chin to the San Diego Padres.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Had just four hits in the game. Didn't catch a
- 9:24Speaker 1: lot of breaks last night. I don't like to use
- 9:26Speaker 1: that excuse, but it applies, and so the four game
- 9:30Speaker 1: winning streak comes to a close. Meanwhile, the Padres have
- 9:32Speaker 1: won six in a row. Mariners will try to ruin
- 9:35Speaker 1: that tonight. It'll be Emerson Hancock going against Randy Vasquez,
- 9:39Speaker 1: a matchup of right handers tonight in San Diego. First
- 9:43Speaker 1: pitch at six forty and it is Jackie Robinson Day
- 9:46Speaker 1: throughout Major League Baseball NBA play In is our next
- 9:50Speaker 1: stop on our frost brewed Corse Light Choose Chill Headlines
- 9:53Speaker 1: tour this morning. Well, I don't think these games should
- 9:57Speaker 1: be played, and I really I don't think they should
- 10:00Speaker 1: be hard to find as a television viewer. But if
- 10:06Speaker 1: you are going to make it that way, at least
- 10:08Speaker 1: make the games dramatic, and they were last night. So
- 10:11Speaker 1: the NBA got paid off a little bit because both
- 10:14Speaker 1: games were entertaining. Portland won over Phoenix by final score
- 10:18Speaker 1: of one fourteen to one ten. Now the Suns have
- 10:21Speaker 1: to fight for their playoff lives this Friday against tonight's
- 10:25Speaker 1: winner Golden State or the Los Angeles Clippers in Los Angeles. Meanwhile,
- 10:30Speaker 1: Miami's been eliminated by the Charlotte Hornets, who will face
- 10:34Speaker 1: tonight's winner between Orlando and Philadelphia for a playoff spot
- 10:39Speaker 1: the final playoffs. Excuse me to excuse me tonight's loser,
- 10:44Speaker 1: I should say, in the Orlando Philly game for the
- 10:47Speaker 1: final playoff spot. There in the East, Hans Steinbach of
- 10:51Speaker 1: Washington has decided to enter the NBA trap. I'm sure
- 10:54Speaker 1: he still has time to pull his name out, but
- 10:56Speaker 1: it looks like Danny Sprinkles lost his best player this offseason.
- 10:59Speaker 1: He's lost a couple of others to the portal, and
- 11:01Speaker 1: now he's lost Steinbach to the NBA draft. Or so
- 11:05Speaker 1: reports suggest. Hockey tonight crack and playing out the string.
- 11:09Speaker 1: They'll take on the Golden Nights at seven o'clock and
- 11:12Speaker 1: we are eight days from the NFL Draft. Eight sleeps
- 11:15Speaker 1: from the NFL Draft. Greg Bell probably won't catch a
- 11:19Speaker 1: wink of sleep between now and next Thursday. Our Seahawks
- 11:22Speaker 1: insider joins us now with the Bell tolls.
- 11:25Speaker 6: It must be seven o'clock and time for twelfth Man

- 11:41Speaker 6: Now with twelk Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck
- 11:45Speaker 6: and Bud.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Good morning, Greg, how are we feeling today?
- 11:49Speaker 7: Well, you're alive and well, oh yeah, I've filled in
- 11:53Speaker 7: for you Friday. I've learned way more from Ashley than
- 11:55Speaker 7: I wanted to go where you were gone.
- 11:57Speaker 2: You should have seen the way he showed things off
- 11:59Speaker 2: on I hope you didn't get any visuals.
- 12:03Speaker 8: No mental visuals were enough. Well, I've been there, so
- 12:09Speaker 8: I know it's no picnics.
- 12:12Speaker 1: I didn't mind the experience too much. Frankly, and considering
- 12:16Speaker 1: all the hubbub that was happening here at the office,
- 12:18Speaker 1: stuff Friday. It sounds like I was better off getting
- 12:21Speaker 1: a colonoscopy than being at work Friday.
- 12:24Speaker 8: That's true.
- 12:25Speaker 7: As I walked away, I felt like a devilish grin
- 12:28Speaker 7: guy that just walked away from a from a building.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Literally, all right, well, here we are a little over
- 12:37Speaker 1: a week from the NFL Draft. Obviously we're going to
- 12:40Speaker 1: be bugging you every day next week. Are you ready?
- 12:44Speaker 1: Does it feel like it's time to really dive into
- 12:47Speaker 1: this thing? From a Greg Bell.
- 12:48Speaker 7: Standpoint, it does, but it is so it is weird
- 12:52Speaker 7: to come off of Super Bowl, especially Super Bowl winning
- 12:55Speaker 7: team parades and all of that, and then oh, a
- 13:00Speaker 7: draft and most teams had a six week head start
- 13:04Speaker 7: on what the Seahawks are doing, and you can feel
- 13:08Speaker 7: it even around the building. And then John Schneider admits
- 13:11Speaker 7: he's had to play catchup since the Super Bowl and
- 13:14Speaker 7: do some weekend studying and now his scouts and his
- 13:18Speaker 7: personnel staff haven't and they've been doing it throughout since
- 13:21Speaker 7: the end of last year's draft. So it's not like
- 13:23Speaker 7: the Seahawks are ill prepared for this. But the vibe
- 13:26Speaker 7: and the oh, now it's the draft and it's not
- 13:30Speaker 7: normally liked had in an off season, but when you
- 13:32Speaker 7: win a Super Bowl, there's other priorities. And then, as
- 13:34Speaker 7: we've talked about Chuck, there's only four picks for Seattle
- 13:37Speaker 7: right now in this draft, second fewest in team history
- 13:40Speaker 7: of it stays that way. The three picks they had
- 13:42Speaker 7: in the COVID Draft twenty twenty one that they punted,
- 13:45Speaker 7: and they're almost punting this one we talked about. They
- 13:48Speaker 7: made the moves such as trading two third day picks
- 13:52Speaker 7: to get Rashid Schiheat in November from the Saints, with
- 13:55Speaker 7: the id in mind that this was a weaker, thinner
- 13:58Speaker 7: draft than most, especially next years, and right now they
- 14:01Speaker 7: have twelve picks in next year yet, So this is
- 14:03Speaker 7: my design. But again, I don't think they're going to
- 14:06Speaker 7: end up the weekend next week with just four picks.
- 14:09Speaker 7: I think I'm trade down get a couple more picks,
- 14:11Speaker 7: as he always does.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Do you feel I mean because I mean, maybe we
- 14:15Speaker 1: exaggerated as fans, Maybe we read into it too much,
- 14:18Speaker 1: Maybe the uh John and Mike don't see it this way,
- 14:21Speaker 1: but it does feel to us without Ken Walker, there's
- 14:23Speaker 1: a running back need for this team. It feels like
- 14:27Speaker 1: without boy A Mafe and the potential of DeMarcus Lawrence
- 14:30Speaker 1: maybe leaving after this year. There's an edge rusher need
- 14:33Speaker 1: for the Seahawks to maybe get younger at that position,
- 14:36Speaker 1: deeper at that position. And you lost Woollen and Bryant
- 14:39Speaker 1: in the same offseason as well, So that does feel
- 14:42Speaker 1: to me like there's some defensive back depth need as well.
- 14:47Speaker 1: So do you see them maybe just sticking and picking
- 14:51Speaker 1: and just you know, before Day two's over, Let's satisfy
- 14:55Speaker 1: those three holes. Let's get the best guy possible, the
- 14:58Speaker 1: best combination of guys possible, and let's just satisfy our needs.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Since we don't love this draft anyway.
- 15:05Speaker 7: Well, I think they could trade down and still do that.
- 15:08Speaker 7: Chuck and John Schneider tells you, I wrote a story
- 15:11Speaker 7: in The Newstribune at the News dot com if you
- 15:13Speaker 7: want to subscribe, check it out. The running back situation
- 15:18Speaker 7: could lend itself to them trading out of the first
- 15:20Speaker 7: round and still getting them Jenerarian Price. A lot of
- 15:23Speaker 7: people are linking the Seahawks to them. The Seahawks went
- 15:26Speaker 7: to Notre Dame's pro day and reportedly had a couple
- 15:30Speaker 7: guys talking to the Notre Dame running backs coach Price
- 15:33Speaker 7: also was a top kickoff returner in the nation. Last
- 15:36Speaker 7: year a couple returns for touchdowns one against USC he
- 15:40Speaker 7: had seventeen I think was seventeen touchdowns. Rushing over the
- 15:44Speaker 7: last two years of his career averaged six yards of carry,
- 15:47Speaker 7: only had two hundred and eighty collegiate snaps because Jeremiah
- 15:51Speaker 7: Love was the star running back in Notre Dame. Notre
- 15:54Speaker 7: Dame's as great in the story as Notre Dame's history
- 15:57Speaker 7: as the Four Horsemen all of it. They've never had
- 16:00Speaker 7: two first round draft picks and running back at one draft.
- 16:03Speaker 7: And some people think the Seahawks are going to take
- 16:05Speaker 7: Price at thirty two and Leve will go in the
- 16:09Speaker 7: top five, probably before or at John Harbor and the
- 16:12Speaker 7: Giants at five. But I could see the Seahawks trading
- 16:15Speaker 7: down into the first few picks of the second round. Tennessee,
- 16:19Speaker 7: for instance, needs everything and has a couple fifth round picks.
- 16:23Speaker 7: They are somebody that is four picks into the second
- 16:26Speaker 7: round that would work well with Seattle Cleveland if perhaps
- 16:30Speaker 7: a quarterback Ty Simpson of Alabama is still there in
- 16:33Speaker 7: thirty two, perhaps Cleveland or Arizona, another very quarterback needy
- 16:37Speaker 7: team would jump up and the Seahawks would be in
- 16:40Speaker 7: the first few picks of round two and gain a
- 16:42Speaker 7: pick in doing that, I would think if the Seahawks
- 16:45Speaker 7: have price at thirty two, They're gonna have price at
- 16:48Speaker 7: thirty five or thirty seven or thirty eight. The way
- 16:51Speaker 7: the league is so hesitant on running backs, especially the
- 16:54Speaker 7: top of draft in big contracts, so last year there
- 16:58Speaker 7: were two running chosen in the first thirty five, and
- 17:03Speaker 7: that's been the norm recently. In the NFL drafts. The
- 17:06Speaker 7: Seahawks tend to pick theirs later. They've only had three
- 17:10Speaker 7: first round running back picks in their entire franchise history,
- 17:13Speaker 7: Kert Warner, Sean Alexander, and Rashad Penny. Penny's the only
- 17:18Speaker 7: one in sixteen years that John Schneider has drafted in
- 17:21Speaker 7: the first round as a running back for Seattle, and
- 17:25Speaker 7: yet a lot of his running backs he's taken in
- 17:28Speaker 7: Day three. And overall he's drafted fourteen running backs and
- 17:32Speaker 7: more than half of them have been in the latter
- 17:35Speaker 7: couple rounds. Chris Carson a shining example of that. Last year,
- 17:38Speaker 7: Damian Martinez was a seventh round pick, as was Carson,
- 17:42Speaker 7: who became a starting running back. So they I think,
- 17:46Speaker 7: are going to get a running back if they could
- 17:49Speaker 7: still trade down and get price at the top of
- 17:50Speaker 7: the second round, or they could get a couple of
- 17:54Speaker 7: corners they're looking at at the top of the second round,
- 17:57Speaker 7: if they trade down and still perhaps get price at
- 18:00Speaker 7: the bottom of the second round where they own the
- 18:02Speaker 7: sixty fourth pick. I look at corner and the more
- 18:06Speaker 7: I read about, learn about watch Brandon cec the cornerback
- 18:10Speaker 7: from South Carolina, the more he seems like a Mike
- 18:14Speaker 7: McDonald guy. And not just because he went to South
- 18:16Speaker 7: Carolina where NICKI MN worry just came out.
- 18:19Speaker 8: Of and started. So last year doesn't hurt.
- 18:22Speaker 7: But no, it doesn't hurt. And he's they're familiar with
- 18:24Speaker 7: the system. But Ceci is a multiplicity guy. People think
- 18:29Speaker 7: he can play in the slot. They think he is
- 18:31Speaker 7: an NFL tackler at the point of attack against the
- 18:34Speaker 7: run and run support outside and of course he put
- 18:37Speaker 7: outside corner in South Carolina. And they talk a lot
- 18:41Speaker 7: around the South Carolina program about his makeup, his work ethic,
- 18:45Speaker 7: his in tangibles, his ability to anticipate in no football
- 18:49Speaker 7: well enough to anticipate plays, his position. Coach at South Carolina.
- 18:54Speaker 7: Brandon cec said that he knows and can talk about
- 18:58Speaker 7: every position all eleven on the defense. Does that not
- 19:01Speaker 7: sound like a Mike McMillan guy. Yep, Yep, that really does.
- 19:05Speaker 7: I think they could go corner with Brandon Ceci, who
- 19:09Speaker 7: maybe available late in the first top of the second,
- 19:12Speaker 7: and then still go get your running back. If if
- 19:14Speaker 7: someone jumps and takes price someone in the first thirty
- 19:17Speaker 7: one picks a round two Mike Washington and Mark it's
- 19:20Speaker 7: a bigger bruiser type back too, earing twenty three pounds.
- 19:24Speaker 7: Is someone they've scheduled to have a thirty visit with
- 19:27Speaker 7: who would likely be available to them too. So the
- 19:30Speaker 7: long answer is, yeah, I think they're going to take
- 19:32Speaker 7: a running back. But they don't pick for needs, and.
- 19:34Speaker 8: They said they.
- 19:35Speaker 7: John Schneider has mentioned multiple times that he's gotten in
- 19:38Speaker 7: trouble when he's picked for need, but one need meets
- 19:41Speaker 7: the best player on the board at the time. Yeah,
- 19:43Speaker 7: like last year with Gray's Abel, then it works out perfectly.
- 19:46Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what you're looking for. Greg Bell is with
- 19:48Speaker 1: us our Seahawks inside of course with the News Tribune.
- 19:51Speaker 1: You can follow him there at the Newstribune dot Com
- 19:54Speaker 1: for twenty four to seven, round the clock, all year
- 19:56Speaker 1: long coverage of your Seattle Seahawks and our Seahawks of
- 20:01Speaker 1: course here on Chuck and Buck most days at seven
- 20:04Speaker 1: five as we get ready with Greg for the NFL Draft,
- 20:07Speaker 1: which is just eight sleeps from today. We've gotten in
- 20:12Speaker 1: the draft miss process. I mean, certainly we've focused on
- 20:16Speaker 1: running backs and corners and edge rushers, but you know
- 20:20Speaker 1: this is a full scale operation here, Greg. So whether
- 20:24Speaker 1: draftmas catalog looks at every single position before Draft day comes,
- 20:28Speaker 1: whether it's a Sea Hawk need or not. What's another
- 20:31Speaker 1: position that maybe we're sleeping on in all this running back, cornerback,
- 20:36Speaker 1: edge rusher talk. Is there something that we're not seeing,
- 20:39Speaker 1: some hole or need that maybe the Seahawks have on
- 20:43Speaker 1: their roster that they'll try to satisfy that could catch
- 20:46Speaker 1: us off guard next week.
- 20:49Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if it's catch off guard, because
- 20:51Speaker 7: it shouldn't. His history, John Schneider's history in the history
- 20:55Speaker 7: of roster building the last two decades in Seattle is
- 20:58Speaker 7: interier offensive and defense line, especially defensive line that they
- 21:03Speaker 7: have aged in the defensive line that they have mid
- 21:07Speaker 7: almost going on mid thirty somethings now on the defensive line.
- 21:11Speaker 7: The Marcus Lawrence turns thirty four this month, thirty three
- 21:14Speaker 7: year old Leonard Williams, thirty three year old Jaron Reid.
- 21:17Speaker 7: They won't play forever. And we've talked about this all
- 21:19Speaker 7: the time. You don't draft for now. You draft for
- 21:22Speaker 7: now next year and the year after and the year after,
- 21:24Speaker 7: because you get these draft picks on four year rookie contracts.
- 21:28Speaker 7: So they have projected out and letter Williams' contract, for instance,
- 21:33Speaker 7: as such that he's unlikely to play beyond next year.
- 21:37Speaker 7: Something this might be his last year come up this year.
- 21:40Speaker 7: There's been rumors that the Marcus Lawrence would retire before
- 21:43Speaker 7: next season, before this fall, but Mike McDonald said that
- 21:47Speaker 7: they've given no indication. He's gotten no indication from Lawrence
- 21:50Speaker 7: that will happen. But the point is they won't play forever,
- 21:54Speaker 7: and you get the defensive line restocked so that you
- 21:59Speaker 7: can have eight, nine ten guys playing in the first
- 22:02Speaker 7: quarter like they did in the Legion of Boom Era,
- 22:05Speaker 7: when the defensive line was such an underrated part of
- 22:07Speaker 7: those championship teams. Mike McDonald's still trying to get there.
- 22:11Speaker 7: He doesn't quite have the depth that he's wanted along
- 22:14Speaker 7: the front line. He played Jaron Reed a lot more
- 22:17Speaker 7: than he intended to play in last year. Byron Murphy
- 22:19Speaker 7: got a lot more snaps that he had to get
- 22:22Speaker 7: compared to year one, and he excelled in it last year.
- 22:25Speaker 7: But he's gonna cost a little bit of money in
- 22:27Speaker 7: a couple of years. All of a sudden, his contract
- 22:29Speaker 7: is two years from ending. They need to restock there.
- 22:32Speaker 7: They have had a couple reported top thirty visits for
- 22:36Speaker 7: defensive tackles. I mean, the one, of course everyone would
- 22:40Speaker 7: love have is Kate McDonald of Ohio State. I can't
- 22:43Speaker 7: imagine he's going to be around at the bottom of
- 22:45Speaker 7: the first round for what a dynamic careers he had
- 22:48Speaker 7: at the top level of college football, but drafted after
- 22:57Speaker 7: roster get drafted in the first round and a half
- 23:00Speaker 7: North Carolina. They nose tackle Brandon Cleveland another one. I've
- 23:03Speaker 7: space eater guy, a true nose tackle. Another one they've
- 23:06Speaker 7: poorly had a top thirty visit with. They almost always
- 23:10Speaker 7: draft defensive linemen. They want to develop them young. Mike
- 23:15Speaker 7: McDonald wants to show them the multiple inside outside, multiple gap.
- 23:21Speaker 8: Ability and.
- 23:23Speaker 7: This it makes financial and roster sense that that's where
- 23:27Speaker 7: they're going to go. And the thing is, it's only
- 23:29Speaker 7: four picks. We don't have the luxury of just taken depth.
- 23:32Speaker 7: But I would be surprised if not one of the
- 23:35Speaker 7: four or five I think they'll end up with. Isn't
- 23:37Speaker 7: a nose tackle defensive tackle tape?
- 23:39Speaker 1: Last thing for you? I mean, I've been told my
- 23:42Speaker 1: entire life the three phases of the game, and they're
- 23:45Speaker 1: all equally important, and I frankly have never bought it.
- 23:48Speaker 1: I thought that special teams no ways equally as important
- 23:52Speaker 1: as offense and defense. And yet this past season we
- 23:56Speaker 1: saw a world champion, a team go from you know,
- 23:59Speaker 1: kind of stuck in mediocrity for a few years, and
- 24:02Speaker 1: then all of a sudden improved a year ago and
- 24:05Speaker 1: now Super Bowl champions in the second year of Mike McDonald,
- 24:08Speaker 1: and boy, they sure were damn good on special teams
- 24:12Speaker 1: and in all phases of special teams. Do you think
- 24:15Speaker 1: that that you know, this is a copycat league. Do
- 24:18Speaker 1: you think that their success last year in special teams
- 24:22Speaker 1: will impact the draft not just what the Seahawks do,
- 24:26Speaker 1: but what other teams do. As they sit there with
- 24:29Speaker 1: envy and say, hey, we got to get better at
- 24:31Speaker 1: special teams, because that was a huge reason why the
- 24:33Speaker 1: Seahawks had some success last year, had the success that
- 24:36Speaker 1: they had.
- 24:38Speaker 7: I'm not sure the draft Chuck, because most of the guys,
- 24:42Speaker 7: unless he's a first round top of the half of
- 24:44Speaker 7: the first round blue chip guy, almost all your draft
- 24:47Speaker 7: picks have to play on special teams in order to
- 24:49Speaker 7: get on the field as rookies, just because their rosters
- 24:52Speaker 7: are pretty stacked with veterans. But what it might change
- 24:56Speaker 7: is how many starters play on special teams during the
- 25:00Speaker 7: regular year, and not a lot of teams do that.
- 25:02Speaker 7: And not that the Seahawks don't have a ton of
- 25:04Speaker 7: starters doing it, but they have key contributors who play
- 25:07Speaker 7: special team. I mean, they just spent seventeen million a
- 25:10Speaker 7: year on basically because of special teams. In Rashid Cheet,
- 25:13Speaker 7: I know he's a wide receiver, but his true value
- 25:16Speaker 7: to this team is then kick returns.
- 25:18Speaker 8: And we saw that at the latter half of last
- 25:20Speaker 8: season aftery got.
- 25:21Speaker 7: Him from the Saints and they re signed him for
- 25:23Speaker 7: his kick return break game breaking ability. They also the
- 25:27Speaker 7: Seahawks basically beyond Shaheed, they ran it back with their
- 25:32Speaker 7: special teams Jake Bobo matching the offer from Jacksonville, Drake
- 25:37Speaker 7: Thomas given him a new deal down the line, the
- 25:41Speaker 7: guys they've brought back are core special teams players and
- 25:46Speaker 7: not big name starters or offense even but the core
- 25:50Speaker 7: guys that are glue type players, those are the guys
- 25:54Speaker 7: that are really valuable that no one talks about that
- 25:58Speaker 7: teams around the NFL wish they had. I mean, not
- 26:01Speaker 7: every team re signs special teams players.
- 26:04Speaker 8: Those are usually more than that spent disposable parts of
- 26:07Speaker 8: the roster.
- 26:08Speaker 7: So that's I think the uniqueness of Seattle that's hard
- 26:11Speaker 7: to copy. The rest of the league doesn't have guys
- 26:14Speaker 7: worth resigning the free a name matching restricted free agent
- 26:18Speaker 7: offers for a primary special teams player sans seventeen million
- 26:21Speaker 7: dollars on a kick returner a year, mostly players. Most
- 26:25Speaker 7: teams don't have players worthy of that. And then so
- 26:27Speaker 7: I think Seattle's an anomaly. It will stay that way,
- 26:30Speaker 7: and that's a big plus to them. They also have
- 26:33Speaker 7: a very innovative special teams coach in Jay Harbaugh. And
- 26:35Speaker 7: you talked to Bobo and Shaheed and the special teams players.
- 26:40Speaker 7: They marvel at the concoctions that guy comes up with.
- 26:43Speaker 7: They liken him to a mad scientist on all kinds
- 26:46Speaker 7: of crazy, new innovative stuff they do because of.
- 26:49Speaker 8: Jay Harbor, and I know Mike McDonald loves them too.
- 26:51Speaker 7: That is a very underrated get for him from Michigan
- 26:55Speaker 7: Jay Harborugh and special teams coach.
- 26:57Speaker 1: All right, Greg, well, uh, here we go the anchor
- 27:01Speaker 1: leg the last eight days before the NFL Draft, before
- 27:04Speaker 1: our lives change next week.
- 27:08Speaker 8: Yeah, we'll be spending a lot of time. Yeah, Retten.
- 27:11Speaker 1: For three days, you get to spend well, to spend
- 27:13Speaker 1: some time together. That's what the holidays are all about, Greg,
- 27:16Speaker 1: spend time with friends and family and loved ones.
- 27:18Speaker 7: That's an impressive tree in the studio. I know you
- 27:21Speaker 7: probably have it on YouTube right now, but I was
- 27:24Speaker 7: a little surprised by that at first. I was like,
- 27:27Speaker 7: when do you take the tree down?
- 27:28Speaker 1: Well, yeah, a tree and draft miss time for sure.
- 27:32Speaker 8: You're in a crabcakes galore.
- 27:35Speaker 7: It just has come quickly this year.
- 27:37Speaker 8: I will say that it's really it's really come quickly.
- 27:40Speaker 8: That's for the Super Bowl.
- 27:42Speaker 1: I like to call our tree Old Mike Tannenbaum. That's
- 27:44Speaker 1: what I like to.
- 27:45Speaker 7: Call it just to keep it the football theme. Yeah,
- 27:50Speaker 7: yeahence need a truck a real tree.
- 27:53Speaker 8: In there though, that would be pretty northwest of you.
- 27:56Speaker 1: That sounds like a lot of work, and I already
- 27:58Speaker 1: made Astley do every time.
- 28:01Speaker 7: Yeah, Ashley, you probably live on the edge of some
- 28:03Speaker 7: tree farm.
- 28:05Speaker 1: We don't have our lumberjack. He's not even coming to
- 28:07Speaker 1: work these days.
- 28:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I bet you can get him to chop a
- 28:09Speaker 3: tree down for us and just drop it off outside.
- 28:13Speaker 1: All right, Greg, Well, we will talk to you very
- 28:16Speaker 1: very soon. Don't leave too.
- 28:18Speaker 8: Yeah, I have reasons not to leave to thank you.
- 28:22Speaker 1: All right, Greg, bel our Seahawks inside of joining us
- 28:25Speaker 1: right here on Chuck and Buck His segment, of course,
- 28:27Speaker 1: brought to you by Diamond Collection Prosecco. Pop the Bubbly,
- 28:31Speaker 1: Bring the Sparkle. It's nearly draft day. Copla Diamond Collection
- 28:34Speaker 1: Prosecco is cris refreshing with notes of apple, citrus and
- 28:37Speaker 1: white peach from the first pick to the mister irrelevant.
- 28:41Speaker 1: It keeps the celebration going Game day bubbles only with
- 28:44Speaker 1: Coppola Diamond Collection Prosecco coming up next. That is the
- 28:49Speaker 1: big topic. It's kind of paralyzed the entire sports talk world,
- 28:52Speaker 1: and Ashley and I really haven't had a conversation about
- 28:55Speaker 1: Diana Russini. So we'll have one next Sports Radio ninety
- 28:57Speaker 1: three point three kJ RFM catalog.
- 29:00Speaker 3: We not you just skip over entire sections of catalogs.
- 29:03Speaker 3: These people doiculous. That is a waste of paper.
- 29:08Speaker 1: Oh well, it's a waste of the draftmas spirit. It's
- 29:12Speaker 1: Ashley and Chuck with you. We also are going to
- 29:14Speaker 1: green Jack at Draft today preview the NBA Playoffs with
- 29:16Speaker 1: a former NBA player. He's actually going to draft with us,
- 29:19Speaker 1: so he's going to judge us, and he's going to
- 29:22Speaker 1: be judged. Okay, we will take a seven foot ass
- 29:26Speaker 1: to task.
- 29:27Speaker 2: That's right.
- 29:28Speaker 1: Okay, So Spencer Hall is going to join us today
- 29:30Speaker 1: at nine o'clock to do some drafting. All right, let's
- 29:33Speaker 1: get a little reckless of breakfast though it is Wednesday
- 29:35Speaker 1: at seven fifty after all, I think this is the
- 29:38Speaker 1: most difficult and yet best issue facing the Seattle sports
- 29:44Speaker 1: scene right now, and that is trying to figure out
- 29:47Speaker 1: our rotation when Bryce Miller is ready to return. Here
- 29:53Speaker 1: is my list. This is how I would do it,
- 29:57Speaker 1: and I will also say, because this is reckless you know,
- 30:00Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a little reckless here. I know that
- 30:03Speaker 1: the Mariners are not going to get reckless with this thing.
- 30:05Speaker 1: I know what the Mariners are going to do. They're
- 30:08Speaker 1: going to take Emerson Hancock and put him in the bullpen.
- 30:11Speaker 1: That's what they're gonna do. They're going to activate Bryce Miller.
- 30:13Speaker 1: They're certainly not going to rock the boat with the
- 30:15Speaker 1: rock and they're going to accept the fact that Emerson
- 30:19Speaker 1: Hancock might be the nicest person in sports and that
- 30:23Speaker 1: he will all shucks. I guess I'll take intod motion
- 30:27Speaker 1: to the bullpen, even though I'm pitching better than everyone.
- 30:30Speaker 1: It's fine, give me some sun tape. So I would
- 30:36Speaker 1: imagine that's what rocks the boat the least and doesn't
- 30:40Speaker 1: also give Emerson the feeling of dejection that he's going
- 30:45Speaker 1: back to Tacoma after pitching as well as what he's pitched.
- 30:48Speaker 1: So that's what I imagine they're going to do when
- 30:51Speaker 1: the time comes. It's not what I would do, and
- 30:54Speaker 1: my pecking order would be this. I trade Luis Castile.
- 31:00Speaker 1: I've already talked about this last week. All got a
- 31:01Speaker 1: plan mapped out for you. Chicago Cubs needs starting pitching
- 31:05Speaker 1: Ian happ Is somebody that next twenty million dollars a year,
- 31:09Speaker 1: they wouldn't have to add too much payroll, but they're
- 31:11Speaker 1: will be willing to add some payroll. Mariners can get
- 31:14Speaker 1: out from underneath the and a half contract next year
- 31:17Speaker 1: if they don't like it that much. You improve with
- 31:19Speaker 1: a goal club like three time goal glove defensive left
- 31:23Speaker 1: fielder who can also switch hits, so you can kind
- 31:26Speaker 1: of eliminate a platoon in that situation. H Randy Rose Arena,
- 31:31Speaker 1: who's been great by the way, he's right now the
- 31:33Speaker 1: best player on the Mariners that's playned every day. He
- 31:37Speaker 1: might become your DH in that situation, or maybe there's
- 31:40Speaker 1: a position change to right field. But to me, you
- 31:45Speaker 1: have five starters, young starters, controllable starters that you can keep.
- 31:51Speaker 1: I think there is a market right now for Luis Castill.
- 31:53Speaker 1: With teams that are trying to contend and yet have
- 31:57Speaker 1: lost starting pitchers this year, and they don't have free
- 32:00Speaker 1: agency to fall back on, they would have to make
- 32:03Speaker 1: a move in order to do it. I say, take
- 32:05Speaker 1: advantage of the market right now. I think you have
- 32:07Speaker 1: that opportunity and you could improve your team, and you
- 32:11Speaker 1: might actually improve your starting rotation, because Castillo looks like
- 32:14Speaker 1: he's the sixth best of the group right now.
- 32:16Speaker 9: Yeah, right, okay, So that's that would be the thing
- 32:19Speaker 9: that I did first.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Now, a lot of people panic about the idea of
- 32:23Speaker 1: trading any starting pitching, and certainly somebody that's so likable
- 32:27Speaker 1: in the clubhouse. So if you didn't want to do that,
- 32:29Speaker 1: the second thing that I would do is I would
- 32:32Speaker 1: take Emerson and send him to Tacoma and trust that
- 32:36Speaker 1: if I'm going to ask him to do something, to
- 32:39Speaker 1: take one on the chin for the good of the situation,
- 32:43Speaker 1: I don't want to also disrupt the rhythm that he's
- 32:48Speaker 1: in as a starting pitcher in case you need to
- 32:50Speaker 1: bring him back, because you never know what's going to
- 32:52Speaker 1: happen in a short period of time. I'm not going
- 32:55Speaker 1: to disrupt his rhythm right now and how good he's
- 32:58Speaker 1: looked on the mound by turning him in to a
- 33:00Speaker 1: reliever who may not know when he's going to pitch,
- 33:03Speaker 1: how often he's going to pitch, just to save his feeling,
- 33:06Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna hurt his feelings either way. I'm
- 33:08Speaker 1: not going to try to save his feelings by keeping
- 33:10Speaker 1: him in a Mariner uniform so that he can travel
- 33:12Speaker 1: with his buddies and play in cathedrals. I'm going to
- 33:17Speaker 1: keep his pitching rhythm. I'm going to send him to Tacoma,
- 33:21Speaker 1: which is right down the road, and if I need
- 33:23Speaker 1: him to come back, and then I can bring him
- 33:26Speaker 1: back spot start, whatever the case may be. Those are
- 33:29Speaker 1: the two options that I go with. Those fly in
- 33:31Speaker 1: the face of what Ryan Healey said yesterday. He thinks
- 33:33Speaker 1: you just move him to the bullpen, or he didn't
- 33:35Speaker 1: say him specifically, he said someone to the bullpen when
- 33:39Speaker 1: we talked to him on Monday. But I'm not disrupting
- 33:43Speaker 1: Bryce Miller. I think Bryce Miller's arrived and it's going.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Once he's healthy, he's going to be great. I think
- 33:51Speaker 1: Luis Castillo I have a lot more questions about whether
- 33:53Speaker 1: or not he's going to be great the rest of
- 33:56Speaker 1: the season than I do Hancock or Miller. So those
- 33:59Speaker 1: are the two that I make, and I would imagine
- 34:03Speaker 1: the Mariners are not going to do either. I think
- 34:05Speaker 1: they're probably going to put Emerson Hancock in the pen,
- 34:08Speaker 1: even though I have no insight information into that.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Yeah, and I just that's the one thing I really
- 34:13Speaker 3: don't want them to do because I get that when
- 34:15Speaker 3: it's the playoffs and you need that person up there,
- 34:18Speaker 3: but right now, early on when you could need him
- 34:19Speaker 3: when someone gets hurt and he could potentially be going
- 34:22Speaker 3: back and forth from the bullpen to the starting rotation
- 34:24Speaker 3: all season.
- 34:24Speaker 2: That just seems he seems.
- 34:26Speaker 1: Like he's figured something out, he's figured like he's got
- 34:29Speaker 1: a groove. I'm going to at least keep him in
- 34:31Speaker 1: that groove, yeah, you know, and I'm going to trust
- 34:34Speaker 1: that Emerson's he's just not going to be as red
- 34:37Speaker 1: ass as somebody else that you might do this too,
- 34:39Speaker 1: and that he'll understand and like those are really five
- 34:42Speaker 1: good pictures and they're great buddies. Man, that's fine.
- 34:46Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, but I think I wonder how long
- 34:48Speaker 3: you can keep saying that, Well, you have to.
- 34:50Speaker 1: I mean, what else are you gonna do? Because I'm
- 34:52Speaker 1: not going to go six man rotation either, because that
- 34:54Speaker 1: could screw up everybody because everybody seems to be, with
- 34:57Speaker 1: the exception of Castillo and a pretty good rhythm right now.
- 35:00Speaker 1: So I'm not doing the six man rotation. I would
- 35:03Speaker 1: do that last. I'd put Handcock in the pen before
- 35:06Speaker 1: I go to a six man rotation.
- 35:08Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
- 35:09Speaker 3: It's as we said, it is a good problem to have,
- 35:11Speaker 3: but it's a problem, that's for sure.
- 35:13Speaker 1: All right. Coming up next the Draftmas catalog, we take
- 35:16Speaker 1: a look at Tackles Sports Radio ninety three point three
- 35:19Speaker 1: kh a RFM. Oh boy, I went hard last night
- 35:22Speaker 1: at my third draft party Draftmas party.
- 35:24Speaker 2: You're just ramping up. This is the week the Draftmas
- 35:26Speaker 2: parties really get going.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, but there are some people so addicted
- 35:30Speaker 1: they've already had six to seven Draftmas parties.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Too much, my friends, you gotta spread it out.
- 35:34Speaker 1: We are sitting here on this Draft miss Wednesday, the
- 35:38Speaker 1: second Wednesday before the actual NFL Draft, just eight sleeps
- 35:43Speaker 1: to go until NFL Draft Day, and we are surrounded
- 35:46Speaker 1: by all of our accouterment. We got the tree who
- 35:50Speaker 1: I just this morning have named oll Mike tannenbaum'e. Yeah,
- 35:58Speaker 1: and I think we just call him Mike. Mean, you know,
- 36:00Speaker 1: we're without Bucky right now, and I always feel like
- 36:03Speaker 1: I need to introduce two people. Yeah, every show, every segment,
- 36:07Speaker 1: So welcome into Chucking Buck in the Mornings with Ashley,
- 36:11Speaker 1: Mike and Chuck.
- 36:12Speaker 2: There you go, Hi, Mike, Hey, Mike.
- 36:14Speaker 1: They look like a Mike.
- 36:16Speaker 2: I see it.
- 36:19Speaker 1: Oh, Mike Tannenbaum sitting over there in the corner. We
- 36:22Speaker 1: do have a Draftmas tree up. Yeah, we're on YouTube.
- 36:25Speaker 2: Check it out on YouTube, peeps.
- 36:26Speaker 1: We just can't do Theater of the Mind anymore. We
- 36:29Speaker 1: a lot more work, exactly. I have reindeer sitting out
- 36:32Speaker 1: there in the sports pit as we speak.
- 36:35Speaker 2: Just in case all of a sudden there's YouTube cameras
- 36:37Speaker 2: out there too.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Uh huh. Trevor and Obadiah, they're sitting there tied up
- 36:42Speaker 1: eating some oats over at Pridemore's desk.
- 36:44Speaker 2: Can't say you're the best, may mean things.
- 36:46Speaker 1: I think you're great at it. I think I am
- 36:48Speaker 1: the best, frankly, Trevor, Trevor, the reindeer, Yeah.
- 36:51Speaker 3: Mike the Christmas tree, well, yes, Mike, great name, Obadiah.
- 36:56Speaker 2: I like that for a reindeer. Don't know about Trevor,
- 37:00Speaker 2: all right.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Maybe Trevor's a little bit off, but my consensus average
- 37:04Speaker 1: is strong. Yeah, Mike's fantastic. Mike is Obadiah is really good, Yeah,
- 37:09Speaker 1: especially right off the cuff. Uh. And then Trevor maybe.
- 37:13Speaker 3: A little bit to be Trevor's questionable, but you know, what, Trevor,
- 37:16Speaker 3: is that kind of reindeer?
- 37:17Speaker 2: I get it.
- 37:17Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Donner wasn't available. It costs a lot.
- 37:20Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have that budget.
- 37:21Speaker 1: We don't have a kind of budget to bring in
- 37:23Speaker 1: Blitzen kidding me? Are you even?
- 37:26Speaker 3: I mean, just if we mentioned it, they would just
- 37:29Speaker 3: shut the door in our face.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Probably haven't an affair with Diana Russini anyway.
- 37:32Speaker 2: Well you know who isn't?
- 37:36Speaker 1: All right, Uh, let's do it. It's time for the
- 37:39Speaker 1: draftmas Catalog. Every year, the Draftmaus Catalog gets dropped in
- 37:42Speaker 1: my doorstep and I share with you the very intimate
- 37:46Speaker 1: pages that are the breakdowns for the players available in
- 37:49Speaker 1: the draft for the Seahawks to take. We go one
- 37:51Speaker 1: position at a time. There is a Schneiderbuck value attached
- 37:55Speaker 1: to each one of our players here today, and of
- 37:58Speaker 1: course I can't go through the so there's usually one
- 38:01Speaker 1: representative from each of the financial groupings that I break
- 38:05Speaker 1: down for you. And at the end of our conversation
- 38:08Speaker 1: about the tackles in this year's draft, Ashley, like she
- 38:12Speaker 1: does at every position whether we need one or not
- 38:15Speaker 1: on the Seahawks roster, circles one person from the page
- 38:20Speaker 1: of that given position, and then ultimately we'll put together
- 38:24Speaker 1: her draft miss wish list next Thursday on Draft Day,
- 38:28Speaker 1: which we will share I can't wait, say a little
- 38:32Speaker 1: more conviction.
- 38:34Speaker 2: I can't wait.
- 38:35Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, don't go have zig zombie, not in front
- 38:40Speaker 1: of Mike.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Sorry, Mike.
- 38:42Speaker 1: All right, So let's talk about the tackles. We don't
- 38:44Speaker 1: need one. I mean, I guess we even have depth
- 38:48Speaker 1: at the position with Josh Jones coming back, so this
- 38:51Speaker 1: doesn't look like something that we're going to get next weekend.
- 38:55Speaker 1: But we have to go through every position group, and
- 38:57Speaker 1: this is a really interesting position group. Are saying it's
- 39:01Speaker 1: the best position group, certainly at the top of the draft.
- 39:04Speaker 1: There could be seven, seven tackles taken in the first
- 39:09Speaker 1: round of the draft. So seven tackles out of thirty
- 39:13Speaker 1: two picks next Thursday night, that is a legit possibility
- 39:18Speaker 1: with this group. It might not be as deep as
- 39:20Speaker 1: the edge rushers, maybe not as deep as a couple
- 39:23Speaker 1: of the other position groups, but I'm betting there aren't
- 39:25Speaker 1: going to be seven of anything taken in the first
- 39:28Speaker 1: thirty two picks next Thursday, except four tackles. And we're
- 39:32Speaker 1: going to start with the guy at the top. He's
- 39:34Speaker 1: been in the news this week and I've actually dropped
- 39:36Speaker 1: him from a about a six dollars schneiderbuck value to
- 39:40Speaker 1: four and a half. And that's Francis Maui Goa, the
- 39:45Speaker 1: six foot five and a half inch three hundred and
- 39:47Speaker 1: ten pound tackle, excuse me, three hundred and thirty pound
- 39:49Speaker 1: tackle out of Miami. For a long time, mui Gawa
- 39:54Speaker 1: was the consensus or Maui Goa Scarry Maui Goa. For
- 39:59Speaker 1: a long time, he it was the consensus number one
- 40:02Speaker 1: tackle on the board, not the unanimous, but the consensus,
- 40:06Speaker 1: and perhaps as high as number three overall to Arizona.
- 40:09Speaker 1: That was a consistently mocked pick in this mock draft process.
- 40:15Speaker 1: Well we just found out this week and it couldn't
- 40:18Speaker 1: have timed out worse for Mauigoa. Back surgery may be required,
- 40:25Speaker 1: if not now, soon into his NFL career. And maybe
- 40:29Speaker 1: it's not that serious of a thing, maybe it's a cleanup,
- 40:33Speaker 1: and maybe it doesn't sound nearly as bad as you
- 40:36Speaker 1: think it does, but back surgery is still back surgery.
- 40:39Speaker 2: Yeah, not a joke.
- 40:40Speaker 1: And when you're talking about a back injury to a
- 40:44Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty pound man whose job is going
- 40:47Speaker 1: to be to throw around other two hundred and eighty
- 40:51Speaker 1: pound men. Then obviously that sets off some red flags,
- 40:57Speaker 1: and of course the mockers have dropped him. He's not
- 41:01Speaker 1: really being mentioned all that prominently as number three to
- 41:04Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals any longer. He has dropped in a
- 41:07Speaker 1: lot of the mocks out there, and even as far
- 41:11Speaker 1: as into the early teams at this point, whether that's
- 41:14Speaker 1: fair or not. Now, if he's healthy, what you're getting
- 41:18Speaker 1: is a proven All American left tackle. He is going
- 41:22Speaker 1: to be drafted as a left tackle. And this is
- 41:24Speaker 1: not a knock on him. This is actually a benefit.
- 41:28Speaker 1: He's kind of got the body type of a guard,
- 41:31Speaker 1: but obviously he's got the skill set to play tackle,
- 41:34Speaker 1: which is where he's gonna want to play, and that's
- 41:36Speaker 1: if you're going to spend a high draft pick on him.
- 41:38Speaker 1: That's where you're gonna want him to play. But as
- 41:41Speaker 1: a safeguard if he doesn't work out, if he does
- 41:44Speaker 1: end up having some difficulty against, you know, snap by snap,
- 41:49Speaker 1: having to face such athletic specimens, because that's a little
- 41:52Speaker 1: bit of a concern. He's kind of blocky can he
- 41:55Speaker 1: hold up against you know, the best pass rushers in
- 41:58Speaker 1: the world, snap by snap, week game by game, week
- 42:02Speaker 1: by week in the National Football League if that ends
- 42:05Speaker 1: up being an issue, and slide him to guard, and
- 42:08Speaker 1: he'll probably be Pro Bowl caliber guard. That's just how
- 42:10Speaker 1: good he is. He has experienced, he is seasoned, he
- 42:13Speaker 1: is intelligent, he is highly skilled, he is strong, he
- 42:16Speaker 1: has balanced. I mean, what's not to like other than
- 42:20Speaker 1: his week.
- 42:20Speaker 2: Back, right, other than the thing holding him up?
- 42:23Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 42:23Speaker 1: Do you know when he got that week back? Though, Ashley,
- 42:26Speaker 1: I don't win oh about a week back. I shouldn't
- 42:31Speaker 1: laugh about back injuries, all right, So you can have
- 42:34Speaker 1: how much is he? Yell? He's gonna be four and
- 42:36Speaker 1: a half, four and a half. I was gonna place
- 42:38Speaker 1: him at six, you know, originally, but you know, they
- 42:42Speaker 1: sent out Draftman's catalog two point zero and made me
- 42:45Speaker 1: update everything, right, So I got him down to four
- 42:47Speaker 1: and a half, which puts him outside the top ten.
- 42:51Speaker 1: That's where I have him right now. So that might
- 42:53Speaker 1: be a value. That might be a value for you,
- 42:55Speaker 1: all right. Next one, Monroe Freeling. He sounds like a nerd.
- 43:00Speaker 2: He does.
- 43:01Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, did you guys see what Monroe Freeling
- 43:03Speaker 3: put on the tech chat today.
- 43:06Speaker 1: I mean, that's a character from Freaks and Geeks right there.
- 43:09Speaker 2: That's a good name.
- 43:10Speaker 1: Monroe Freeling. Hey, dear, Monroe Freeling's in town. Six seven
- 43:14Speaker 1: three d and fifteen pounds out of Georgia. Had a
- 43:17Speaker 1: great combine a sub five forty, which is terrific when
- 43:21Speaker 1: you are operating at six feet seven inches tall three
- 43:23Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen pounds. Also had a vertical leap of
- 43:26Speaker 1: thirty three and a half inches and a nine foot
- 43:29Speaker 1: seven inch broad jump, which speaks to the athleticism, the
- 43:32Speaker 1: power that he has. Now the knock on him, and
- 43:36Speaker 1: maybe it's not a knock. Only one year is a
- 43:38Speaker 1: full time starter. Now he is playing at Georgia, pretty
- 43:40Speaker 1: stiff competition to try to get on the football field.
- 43:43Speaker 1: But then he spent only three years at school, so
- 43:47Speaker 1: there was no red shirt season and he left early.
- 43:50Speaker 1: He is twenty one years old. So this is a
- 43:52Speaker 1: young player who got enough advice from people to say, hey,
- 43:56Speaker 1: I know you didn't have a lot of starts at Georgia,
- 43:57Speaker 1: but you're ready. You are ready to the draft. And
- 44:01Speaker 1: he's expected to still grow into his naturally long frame
- 44:05Speaker 1: he's got long arms, he's obviously tall, a very fluid athlete,
- 44:10Speaker 1: which we saw on display at the Combine. Still has
- 44:13Speaker 1: a lot of learning to do at the position, But
- 44:15Speaker 1: again that kind of works as a positive for Monroe
- 44:19Speaker 1: Freeling because the biggest thing about him is how scouts
- 44:23Speaker 1: see his potential. He seemed to get better at Georgia
- 44:26Speaker 1: with each game he played. He's risen quickly in mock
- 44:30Speaker 1: drafts throughout this process, and some are projecting him to
- 44:33Speaker 1: go as high as number six to the Cleveland Browns.
- 44:36Speaker 1: So what you would be getting in Monroe Freeling is
- 44:38Speaker 1: maybe not a finished product. But if he's this good
- 44:41Speaker 1: with this little experience and he still hasn't even filled
- 44:44Speaker 1: out once he puts that man weight on and gets
- 44:49Speaker 1: in into an NFL routine by the time he's twenty
- 44:53Speaker 1: five years old, are we looking at a I mean,
- 44:55Speaker 1: they say he moves like a tight end. Are we
- 44:57Speaker 1: looking at a six foot seven inch, three out of
- 45:00Speaker 1: in thirty five pound, three hundred and thirty pound left
- 45:03Speaker 1: tackle that moves like Jack with moves like Jagger. I
- 45:07Speaker 1: don't know, but that's why teams are tempted to get him.
- 45:11Speaker 1: I'm going to give Monroe Freeling to you, plus a
- 45:15Speaker 1: pair of wire rim glasses with some tape in the
- 45:17Speaker 1: middle for forur Schneider Bucks. For Schneider Bucks. All right,
- 45:21Speaker 1: let's go to our next player in our draftmans catalog.
- 45:25Speaker 1: For three Schneider bucks, you can have max Ihan Nouchoor.
- 45:29Speaker 2: He didn't pick a lot of easy names to spell today, no.
- 45:31Speaker 1: But this is I picked the most fascinating guys, and
- 45:34Speaker 1: this guy's the most fascinating.
- 45:37Speaker 2: I'm just guessing on how to spell all these six.
- 45:40Speaker 1: Foot six inches stall three hundred and twenty pounds out
- 45:42Speaker 1: of Arizona State. Ike Freeling ran a sub five forty
- 45:46Speaker 1: at that size four point nine one forty, got quite
- 45:51Speaker 1: a bit under it. He has thirty three and seven
- 45:54Speaker 1: eight inch arms, which is short compared to some of
- 45:58Speaker 1: these guys out here, and bench press twenty five times.
- 46:01Speaker 1: He's want a few guys that said, I'll still do
- 46:02Speaker 1: the bench press to show. I mean, when you have
- 46:05Speaker 1: long arms, it's harder to do the bench press. And
- 46:07Speaker 1: he still got twenty five reps up. He is another
- 46:09Speaker 1: one of those ascending tackle types, because this process can
- 46:16Speaker 1: be cruel and they kind of pick you apart, and
- 46:19Speaker 1: yet you've got guys like Freeling and ion Neutchore, who
- 46:25Speaker 1: they're really judging on the potential because not only is
- 46:29Speaker 1: he late to football, he didn't even play football at
- 46:32Speaker 1: all in high school?
- 46:33Speaker 2: Oh wow, not at all.
- 46:34Speaker 1: He was a basketball player, And like all converts from
- 46:37Speaker 1: another sport, he's a little bit behind the learning curve,
- 46:41Speaker 1: and yet still playing at a all Big twelve level
- 46:45Speaker 1: at Arizona State at least second team, even with that
- 46:49Speaker 1: limited amount of experience. So he went from djuco, He
- 46:53Speaker 1: went from basketball player to juco football player to two
- 46:56Speaker 1: year starter at Arizona State. And obvious, the obvious knocks
- 47:01Speaker 1: are he doesn't know the position well enough, he's got
- 47:03Speaker 1: a lot to learn. And yet the obvious strengths are,
- 47:08Speaker 1: he's so athletic because of basketball, he's got great feet,
- 47:11Speaker 1: he's got he's got quickness and body control of a
- 47:14Speaker 1: basketball big man. And if he's already that good, and
- 47:17Speaker 1: he really doesn't even know how to play the position, again,
- 47:20Speaker 1: what is he capable of being going forward? So too
- 47:25Speaker 1: many penalties in college another knock against them, and yet
- 47:29Speaker 1: another thing that can be improved. Still learn exactly and
- 47:32Speaker 1: so very interesting piece. I don't know if they'll go
- 47:36Speaker 1: late first round. He could maybe the Seahawks if they're
- 47:39Speaker 1: just like, hey, we secretly don't know if Abe Lucas
- 47:43Speaker 1: is gonna join the circus, you know, then maybe they
- 47:46Speaker 1: would secretly want a tackle out of this process.
- 47:49Speaker 2: I hope he'd have an idea that well, they wouldn't
- 47:53Speaker 2: tell us, that's for sure. They wouldn't.
- 47:54Speaker 1: They're not before draftness, there are, They're not so three schneiderbucks.
- 47:59Speaker 1: You could get him with the thirty second pick in
- 48:02Speaker 1: the NFL draft. To feel fairly comfortable saying that if
- 48:05Speaker 1: you're in the market for such a thing, all right,
- 48:07Speaker 1: let's go to the next one, Mark hell Bell. And
- 48:09Speaker 1: this is where we really get after the first seven. Like,
- 48:13Speaker 1: the tackles are all over the board. I mean I
- 48:16Speaker 1: used consensus a lot to try to average what all
- 48:20Speaker 1: of the mockers were saying about the tackles. But for example,
- 48:24Speaker 1: this next guy, I've seen him go in the second round.
- 48:27Speaker 1: I've seen him go in the seventh round. Mark hel
- 48:30Speaker 1: Bell is his name. You want some size, this is
- 48:33Speaker 1: your guy, six' nine three and forty five pounds out Of. Miami,
- 48:40Speaker 1: yeah he'll make you, say holy, moly slow five to
- 48:44Speaker 1: three six. Forty but that's a lot of that's a
- 48:47Speaker 1: lot of body to, move incredibly long arms thirty six
- 48:52Speaker 1: inches and three eighths and so that's you're looking at
- 48:56Speaker 1: an eighty seven inch, wingspan so basic like a guy
- 49:00Speaker 1: of seven over seven feet, tall that's his. Wingspan it's
- 49:04Speaker 1: another junior college guy who landed In miami and played
- 49:07Speaker 1: with The maui goa mountainous, size benefits from, it also
- 49:12Speaker 1: is weakened by, it and the reasons should be. Obvious
- 49:15Speaker 1: it's not like he's going against the. Grain, obviously he
- 49:18Speaker 1: has great, length and he has great, power and then
- 49:21Speaker 1: on the other, side, quickness balance not exactly his cup of.
- 49:25Speaker 1: Tea so you know what you're kind of getting with this,
- 49:29Speaker 1: guy and you are looking at the high ceiling potential of.
- 49:35Speaker 1: Him but there's some work to do on this. Guy
- 49:37Speaker 1: but can you get a mountain of a man that
- 49:40Speaker 1: can move other mountains of? Men that seems to be
- 49:44Speaker 1: What mark Hell bell's traits. Are let's put it this,
- 49:47Speaker 1: way in terms of his balance and. QUICKNESS i don't
- 49:51Speaker 1: hear many people being described as having a high center of.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Gravity you usually want a low center of gravity, beneficial
- 49:57Speaker 1: but that's how they Describe Markel. Bell he's got a
- 50:00Speaker 1: he's center of, gravity all, Right so that's for two
- 50:03Speaker 1: bucks For MARK. L, bell Two Schneider. BUCKS a One
- 50:07Speaker 1: schneiderbuck player Is washington's. Own carver willis six foot five
- 50:11Speaker 1: inches tall through and three pounds ran a five one
- 50:15Speaker 1: at the, combine has a twenty six and a half
- 50:17Speaker 1: inch vertical. Leap not Exactly Michael jordan not, quite not
- 50:21Speaker 1: a high. Fire he played only one season with the
- 50:24Speaker 1: Husk he's played well after having spent five years At Kansas.
- 50:28Speaker 1: State how do you not stay At Kansas date when
- 50:31Speaker 1: you've already been there for five? Years seems like you
- 50:33Speaker 1: just finish up. There, yeah you almost had your doctorate.
- 50:35Speaker 1: Finish he is an older hair. Player his hairline kind
- 50:39Speaker 1: of shows.
- 50:39Speaker 2: It.
- 50:40Speaker 1: Sorry carver happens undoubtedly at his best in run. Blocking
- 50:45Speaker 1: he plays with. Intensity as we, saw he finishes his,
- 50:48Speaker 1: blocks which is. Important may not be athletic enough to
- 50:52Speaker 1: play tackle and this is where you get the, rub
- 50:54Speaker 1: and yet may not be stout and strong enough to
- 50:57Speaker 1: be AN nfl guard classic and likely a depth piece
- 51:02Speaker 1: in The National Football. League, NOW i said that there
- 51:05Speaker 1: are ratings all over the board on all of these,
- 51:07Speaker 1: GUYS Cbs sports has willis ranked not only highly as
- 51:11Speaker 1: the seventy fifth ranked overall, prospect that would make him
- 51:15Speaker 1: a top of the third, pick top of the third,
- 51:18Speaker 1: round and yet others don't have him getting drafted at.
- 51:22Speaker 1: All they don't like him at. All SO i, say
- 51:26Speaker 1: we're gonna find the average, consensus which industry consensus says
- 51:31Speaker 1: is around pick number one twenty. Eight that puts him
- 51:34Speaker 1: around the end of the Fourth so we'll give him
- 51:36Speaker 1: a one dollar Schneider buck. Value and, frankly if you
- 51:40Speaker 1: are thinking about an offensive lineman for The seahawks out
- 51:43Speaker 1: of pure depth at some point in the, draft it's
- 51:45Speaker 1: probably gonna be something Like. Carver. Willis somebody that can
- 51:48Speaker 1: play multiple. Positions, theoretically he hasn't hasn't needs, work but, yeah,
- 51:52Speaker 1: yeah but if he is a little bit of a,
- 51:54Speaker 1: tweener a swing type player that can fill in that
- 51:58Speaker 1: you can turn into a right, tackle left, tack maybe
- 52:00Speaker 1: a card maybe even a. Center he's, smart he's, experienced
- 52:05Speaker 1: he loves to run, block he plays with. Intensity you,
- 52:08Speaker 1: know might be the type of offensive lineman that you
- 52:11Speaker 1: would actually circle since we really don't need a.
- 52:13Speaker 9: Tackle, yeah, okay all, Right, finally fifty Cents Diego pounds
- 52:18Speaker 9: out Of Ole miss And i'll say three hundred and
- 52:21Speaker 9: twenty five of. Them, YEAH i mean he's an offensive
- 52:24Speaker 9: tackle for.
- 52:25Speaker 1: Goodness say his name ain't gonna Be Diego. Pound, no, no,
- 52:29Speaker 1: no he's gonna have a lot of pounds coming your.
- 52:31Speaker 1: Way six foot six inch rebel ran a five to
- 52:34Speaker 1: one at the. Combine, uh fifty cents might be a
- 52:38Speaker 1: steal for. Him another one of these where the consensus
- 52:42Speaker 1: claims he's a seventh round pick because some people don't
- 52:45Speaker 1: even have him getting drafted at, all and yet you
- 52:47Speaker 1: can find a lot of mock drafts out there that
- 52:50Speaker 1: go deeper that have him going as high as fourth fifth.
- 52:53Speaker 1: Round so, again completely all over the. Board his deficiencies
- 52:58Speaker 1: exist in both pass and run, blocking more so in run,
- 53:02Speaker 1: blocking but certainly not a lost cause in. Either looks
- 53:05Speaker 1: like he's got the ability to, grow learn and develop
- 53:10Speaker 1: profiles as another swing offensive. Lineman so Thank Josh jones
- 53:14Speaker 1: as the future For Diego. Pounds but if you're sitting
- 53:18Speaker 1: there THINKING i don't want to tackle it, All i'm
- 53:20Speaker 1: just gonna circle the fifty cent, guy Then Diego pounds
- 53:24Speaker 1: might be your. Person so there you. Go those are
- 53:27Speaker 1: the REPRESENTATIVES i am displaying for your consideration here in
- 53:32Speaker 1: our tackle pages of The draft miss, Catalog, ashley you
- 53:35Speaker 1: must circle.
- 53:36Speaker 2: ONE i, mean his name says it. All give me diego,
- 53:39Speaker 2: pound go With diego.
- 53:40Speaker 3: Pounds, YEAH i MEAN i want an offensive lineman who's
- 53:44Speaker 3: big and his name knows.
- 53:45Speaker 1: It, yeah you know What I'm i'm with you on.
- 53:48Speaker 1: THAT i don't want TO i don't want to go
- 53:50Speaker 1: big investment on this position.
- 53:52Speaker 3: Either, no but let's see what we can get if
- 53:53Speaker 3: we can find a little a. STEAL i love.
- 53:55Speaker 1: That, Yeah so let's go the fifty cent piece and
- 53:58Speaker 1: maybe maybe he can be the Next Josh jones where
- 54:01Speaker 1: When Josh jones is walking away.
- 54:03Speaker 2: From, IT i wouldn't hate.
- 54:04Speaker 1: That, YEAH i wouldn't hate that. Either so all, right
- 54:06Speaker 1: we're both in agreement on. That not a huge need
- 54:09Speaker 1: there at, tackle so we'll go ahead and take the
- 54:11Speaker 1: fifty cent piece In diego. Pounds all. Right coming up
- 54:15Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the, program we do
- 54:17Speaker 1: have since it Is Draft, miss A Green Jacket Draft
- 54:20Speaker 1: Spencer hawes is going to be joining us in. Studio
- 54:22Speaker 1: but coming up next we do it every day During mariner's.
- 54:25Speaker 1: Season it's your ABC's OF dms On Sports radio ninety
- 54:29Speaker 1: three point THREE. Kjrfm Diego padres bomb final score of
- 54:32Speaker 1: four to one In San, Diego.
- 54:36Speaker 2: Sandago, MAN i think It's Saint. Diego, oh, yeah that makes.
- 54:42Speaker 1: Sense greed to.
- 54:44Speaker 2: DISAGREE i need to watch that movie.
- 54:47Speaker 1: Again oh it's been a while for me. Too but
- 54:50Speaker 1: Since i've watched it a thousand, TIMES i THINK i
- 54:53Speaker 1: know it pretty.
- 54:54Speaker 10: Well.
- 54:54Speaker 1: Yeah probably It's chuck And ashley with. You No bucky,
- 54:57Speaker 1: today but he'd be helpful with the ABC's THE ms right,
- 55:00Speaker 1: Now i'll tell you that. Much we left off of
- 55:02Speaker 1: the LETTER g and we did THE abcs yesterday AND
- 55:05Speaker 1: g is for ground balls with, Eyes and that's what
- 55:12Speaker 1: the game was last. Night, yeah they. Lost they didn't play,
- 55:17Speaker 1: great not saying they deserved to, win BUT i don't
- 55:21Speaker 1: think they played ANY i don't think THEY i don't
- 55:25Speaker 1: think The padres played any better than what The mariners
- 55:28Speaker 1: did last. Night there weren't a lot of balls hit
- 55:31Speaker 1: hard in that, contest but it kind of felt like
- 55:33Speaker 1: to me The mariners hit more hard balls than what
- 55:35Speaker 1: The San Diego padres. Did they had a lot of
- 55:38Speaker 1: little flares over the, Infield Xander, bogarts and they had
- 55:42Speaker 1: a lot of ground balls with, eyes and sometimes you
- 55:48Speaker 1: lose baseball games that. Way we didn't exactly crush the
- 55:52Speaker 1: baseball last, night But Josh naylor looked like they had
- 55:54Speaker 1: a double down the first baseline That Ty francis happened
- 55:57Speaker 1: to be perfectly positioned to. Grab that's some. Luck Luke
- 56:00Speaker 1: rayley may have had the best hit of the night
- 56:03Speaker 1: when he blasted that one to left center, field And
- 56:06Speaker 1: loreano didn't even have to really make that difficult of
- 56:09Speaker 1: a catch to get back there and make that play
- 56:11Speaker 1: at the. WALL i thought for sure it was getting
- 56:13Speaker 1: over his. Head it didn't EVEN JP i thought was
- 56:16Speaker 1: a smart piece of, hitting trying to knock the ball
- 56:18Speaker 1: the other. Way that's THE JP i. Like and it
- 56:20Speaker 1: ends up going right To Manny machado and the. SHIFT
- 56:23Speaker 1: i thought he was going to drill one through the
- 56:25Speaker 1: hole and we were going to get an inning going,
- 56:26Speaker 1: there and instead it turns into a double. Play you
- 56:29Speaker 1: go from having WHAT i thought was going to be
- 56:31Speaker 1: two people on off the crack of the bat to
- 56:33Speaker 1: nobody on and you're out of another. Inning there were
- 56:35Speaker 1: double plays. Everywhere it was just one of those.
- 56:38Speaker 8: Games.
- 56:39Speaker 1: WHERE i, MEAN i don't think that that was some
- 56:44Speaker 1: time capsule display of baseball that The padres put. On
- 56:48Speaker 1: it was one of those games where their balls found
- 56:51Speaker 1: grass and holes and ours, didn't and we lost four to.
- 56:55Speaker 1: One So i'm not making excuses for the. TEAM i
- 56:58Speaker 1: Told ashley earlier in the. Show IF i do this,
- 57:00Speaker 1: regularly she's free to tase. ME i will buy a
- 57:03Speaker 1: taser so THAT i can be taste IF i use
- 57:06Speaker 1: things like this as a routine. Excuse but that. Did
- 57:11Speaker 1: that's what it felt like last. Night you lost that
- 57:13Speaker 1: game because their little dumpers found holes and our big
- 57:17Speaker 1: dumper couldn't find a.
- 57:18Speaker 2: Hole that's, right they found, grass we found.
- 57:21Speaker 1: Ass, yeah, yeah pretty much pretty, much is that?
- 57:25Speaker 2: There?
- 57:26Speaker 1: Yeah, Man SO i Thought Brian wood wasn't the sharpest
- 57:30Speaker 1: that he's been in the, past but he's also so
- 57:33Speaker 1: good now that he can he could have HIS b
- 57:36Speaker 1: GAME b minus game and still get you. Through but you,
- 57:39Speaker 1: know he made the right pitches To Xander bogart's in the,
- 57:43Speaker 1: moment And bogart's fought it off and dumps a single
- 57:47Speaker 1: into center. FIELD i, Mean Xander bogart's got beat on
- 57:51Speaker 1: all three of his. Hits last.
- 57:52Speaker 2: Night, Yeah angie said that was an ugly swing on
- 57:54Speaker 2: a really nice. Pitch, yeah that second on the last, one,
- 57:57Speaker 2: yeah the last.
- 57:58Speaker 1: One, Yeah and that's that Was bogo. Night and sometimes
- 58:02Speaker 1: you find holes ground balls with. Eyes So i'm not thinking, That, Oh,
- 58:08Speaker 1: mariners it's over. FACE a good team can be a
- 58:12Speaker 1: good team beat a team that's pitchers are all banged,
- 58:15Speaker 1: up but you can't be a good. Team, No, NO
- 58:18Speaker 1: i don't think that was the. Case h is For.
- 58:20Speaker 1: Hancock Emerson hancock gets the start, tonight and, LOOK i
- 58:25Speaker 1: mean you want to talk about under a, microscope there's
- 58:28Speaker 1: really no margin for error. HERE i mean The, mariners
- 58:31Speaker 1: With Bryce miller getting ready to come, back maybe in
- 58:35Speaker 1: as soon as ten days or, so if he has two,
- 58:38Speaker 1: STARTS i, mean obviously they Want Emerson hancock to go
- 58:42Speaker 1: out there and dominate on the mound to the degree
- 58:45Speaker 1: that he did in his first two. STARTS i, mean
- 58:47Speaker 1: that's the best case. Scenario but if he does have
- 58:52Speaker 1: an off, game it sort of does give them their
- 58:55Speaker 1: out and trying to figure out this rotation Once Bryce
- 58:58Speaker 1: miller comes, back If Emerson hancock has a hiccup and
- 59:03Speaker 1: he knows that that's what's operating inside HIS hs for
- 59:07Speaker 1: head is that if he goes out there and he's
- 59:10Speaker 1: off just a little, bit he Knows bryce is coming.
- 59:14Speaker 2: Back, yeah and he knows he'll be the easiest one
- 59:17Speaker 2: to send.
- 59:17Speaker 1: Down and he'll be the and he is undoubtedly the
- 59:19Speaker 1: easiest one to send. Down so WHAT i would like
- 59:22Speaker 1: For emerson to do is make it hus for. Hard,
- 59:25Speaker 1: yeah please make it as hard as possible on this
- 59:29Speaker 1: organization to take you out of the starting. ROTATION i
- 59:32Speaker 1: would love to see nothing, more no matter how difficult
- 59:35Speaker 1: it makes the decision then for him to go out
- 59:37Speaker 1: there and just dominate in his lass next two. Starts
- 59:42Speaker 1: and so it's going to be an interesting story to
- 59:44Speaker 1: certainly monitor and all the things that you have to
- 59:48Speaker 1: worry about as a. PITCHER i, mean you can go
- 59:50Speaker 1: out there in the mound and not give one thought
- 59:53Speaker 1: To i'm pitching for my, Job but subconsciously he knows
- 59:57Speaker 1: that it's he knows after having to fight his way
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: back into this rotation and into the good graces of
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: the one of the top five starting pitchers in this,
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: organization he knows he's the first man. Out and so
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: you add that pressure to his performance tonight and probably
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: his next outing.
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: As, WELL i would, imagine, yeah AND i have faith
- 1:00:16Speaker 3: that he's gonna do. It he's gonna do just what
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: we've been seeing from him from the last two, games
- 1:00:20Speaker 3: because HE'S i, MEAN i think that pressure looks.
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: DIFFERENT i, mean new and Improved hancock is not some
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: byproduct of you, know the opponent had an off day
- 1:00:30Speaker 1: at the. PLAY i think that he is pitching differently this.
- 1:00:34Speaker 1: YEAR i think that he has embraced that top rail,
- 1:00:37Speaker 1: fastball which pretty much are the bread and butter for
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: Both wu And. MILLER i mean all of them to a,
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: degree but Certainly wu And. Miller so If i'm sitting
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: there And I'm Emerson hancock And i'm, like, Okay i've
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: lost MY i was supposed to be one of these
- 1:00:52Speaker 1: five guys and then those two guys passed. Me how
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: do they pass? Me, oh they've got this. Fastball they
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: don't throw any harder THAN i, do but you sometimes
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: you just got to give yourself to. It so he's
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: kind of throwing with that like oomph behind him right,
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: now and so that's kind of Been this to, me
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: is a new and Improved Emerson hancock that we've been.
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: WATCHING i want to keep seeing the same guy all season,
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: long just keep doing.
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: It but, yes, please, yes, Please, FINALLY i is for.
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: Interactions and you know this is on the heels of
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: THE wbc drama that unfortunately we had to discuss Between
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Cal rawley And Randy Rose. Arena BUT i think you'll
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: find that it is consistent with WHAT i said then
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: And i'm going to say it. NOW i do like
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: it when teammates or former teammates kind of acknowledge one
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: another on the baseball. FIELD i, MEAN i get, it
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: we're out. There we don't want people playing grab ass
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: with the. Opponents BUT i said at the, TIME i
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: just Wish cal would have shaken his hand BECAUSE i kind.
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: Of like seeing or even a glove. Tap, YEAH i
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: kind of like.
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: Seeing, like, yes we're in battle right, now But i'm
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: just going to this one time acknowledge, that, yes we're,
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: boys and we've got a bigger prize in, mind right
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: and you know it AND i know, It but let's
- 1:02:10Speaker 1: let's try to win for our countries right, now you
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: know that sort of. Thing and to see Ty france
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: and the relationships that they all have with, THEM i
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: just like. IT i don't find it grab ASS i
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: don't think that it's less than. Competitive When julio And
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: ty were doing their thing over there on the pickoff move,
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: first AND i Think, ty you, know gave him the
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: what four first and then you just saw that little
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: rye smile on his dimpled face that my fake daughter
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: misses so.
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: Much they, say, oh she must be.
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: HEARTBROKEN i just like seeing. IT i like seeing the,
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: interactions AND i like the reminder last night of how
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: Much Ty france was a part of this.
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: Team, yeah because he was a big part of this,
- 1:02:50Speaker 3: team AND i mean they're all very close with, Him
- 1:02:52Speaker 3: SO i love.
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: That, yeah, yeah AND i you, KNOW i don't you,
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: know there are a lot of old school people, like
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: don't do, that don't don't interact with the. Opponent BUT
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: i enjoyed. IT i like those little nuggets that you
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: got from the game last, night AND i loved. It
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: brad And angie and And aaron all took the time
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: to discuss it as. WELL i, mean he's been now
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: removed for a couple of years from this equation and
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: yet he was such a Good. Mariner well that's. True
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: she didn't have a.
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: Choice, yeah she's that's her role as.
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: President that's. True SHE'S i, mean you don't get a
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: Ty france tattoo across your back and then not acknowledge
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: him when you're facing him.
- 1:03:33Speaker 2: In a Base that would just be.

- 1:05:11Speaker 11: Have it's like fantasy football Or March, MADNESS i think,
- 1:05:14Speaker 11: sometimes and it's these rare instances where the dumb money,
- 1:05:18Speaker 11: prevails AND i think it can be an advantage just
- 1:05:20Speaker 11: coming in kind of throwing darts at the.
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: Poort, well great to see, you thanks for coming in
- 1:05:24Speaker 1: and doing.
- 1:05:25Speaker 11: This thanks for having. Me it's the most exciting time
- 1:05:27Speaker 11: of the. Year tank season's over and you can get
- 1:05:29Speaker 11: back to, business.
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: Right aren't you ready to just watch game after game
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: where everybody's throwing it on the.
- 1:05:34Speaker 11: Line it's been bad in the. PAST i don't know
- 1:05:38Speaker 11: what it was about this. Year maybe the fact that,
- 1:05:41Speaker 11: well certainly the fact that it's such a loaded draft
- 1:05:45Speaker 11: that we're getting into and then looking forward next, year
- 1:05:49Speaker 11: it's looking like it's going to be one of the
- 1:05:51Speaker 11: lower end drafts in a, While so that obviously has
- 1:05:53Speaker 11: a lot to do with. It but it seemed, like you,
- 1:05:55Speaker 11: know a third of the teams gave up basically at
- 1:05:58Speaker 11: the trade deadline by The All star break In, god
- 1:06:01Speaker 11: it was insufferable down the.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: STRETCH i haven't spoken with you since The sonics. News
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: what's Your sonics temperature right? Now it's it's.
- 1:06:09Speaker 11: Percolating i've SAID i wasn't going to get excited until
- 1:06:15Speaker 11: until it's officially, official but there's a lot of reasons
- 1:06:18Speaker 11: to be excited right.
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: Now can we get your Guy mitch to come up
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: here and coach the team when we get.
- 1:06:22Speaker 11: IT i Think mitch is in a pretty good position
- 1:06:24Speaker 11: down there In San. Antonio i'd stick with, Uh i'd
- 1:06:27Speaker 11: stick with the horse that's dragging his.
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: Wagon, yeah BUT i think your little poker face over,
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: Here Chris, ashley he's got a spurs of sweatshirt. On
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: so guess whoever he's leaning no way to give it all.
- 1:06:40Speaker 1: AWAY i couldn't blame. Him it's an easy team to root.
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: For it is an easy team to root, for isn't.
- 1:06:47Speaker 12: It?
- 1:06:47Speaker 11: Yeah a lot of, fun AND i think they're JUST i,
- 1:06:50Speaker 11: mean they're so, young they're just scratching the. SURFACE i
- 1:06:52Speaker 11: Think castle's looking like he's going to be an all excuse,
- 1:06:55Speaker 11: me ALL nba type. Player Dylan harper's shown enough flashes
- 1:06:58Speaker 11: where he looks like a Future All. Star daran's still
- 1:07:02Speaker 11: in his, Prime Kelvin johnson still holding it. Down you
- 1:07:06Speaker 11: got the Rookie Carter bryant that that showed a lot
- 1:07:09Speaker 11: as the season went on and really kind of established
- 1:07:11Speaker 11: a role for. Himself so it's gonna be easy to
- 1:07:14Speaker 11: be A spurs fan for a.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: While you better beat them this. Year i'll just say
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: that you better beat them this. Year all, Right, well
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: this is a this is going to be. FUN i,
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: mean we've had experts on before that have analyzed our,
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: picks but not any on that has analyzed our picks while.
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: Drafting but With bucky, Out spencer's going to fill that fourth.
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: Seat and so we're gonna draft With spencer admitting we're
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: going up against a ringer and willingly taking head. On
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: let's do, this accepted, Challenge let's do it all, Right
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: ashley what's our draft.
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: Orders we'll call this. Luck oh, Wow spencer gets the first.
- 1:07:51Speaker 8: One.
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: Wow look at.
- 1:07:52Speaker 3: That, well this would be the year or the draft
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: THAT i probably don't want the second pick BECAUSE i
- 1:07:57Speaker 3: have a FEELING i were. Nowhere spencer is going to go.
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: In that going to put me in a tough. Spot
- 1:08:01Speaker 3: BUT i have the second pick By chuck and.
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: Kid all, right kids, Laughed, yeah right.
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: Right into the fourth. Spot i've been there a.
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: While, again we're going for most. Points so it's that
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: we're picking a roster of four, players and it's a
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: combination of us predicting teams that are going to go
- 1:08:20Speaker 1: far and who's going to score those points for. Them
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: so that's the way that it. Works spencer's got the first. Pick,
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: Overall spencer is going to score the most points in
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: THE nba playoffs this. Year The alien victor, Women, yama
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: you aren't kidding. Them so you think The spurs are
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: going all the way this?
- 1:08:36Speaker 11: YEAR i THINK i think they're. GOING i think they
- 1:08:40Speaker 11: are more than capable of winning. It and my heart
- 1:08:44Speaker 11: in my head tell me that based on WHAT i
- 1:08:46Speaker 11: saw in the regular, season their position to beat the
- 1:08:48Speaker 11: Thunder but something interesting happened that last game of the
- 1:08:51Speaker 11: year that was kind of looked like a throwaway where
- 1:08:54Speaker 11: Uh denver and The lakers flip, seeds which means that The,
- 1:08:59Speaker 11: spurs after they take care of business down In portland
- 1:09:02Speaker 11: or in that, series we're gonna have to play The
- 1:09:05Speaker 11: nuggets in the second, round WHICH i think no one
- 1:09:07Speaker 11: was happier when that happened than The Oklahoma City thunder
- 1:09:10Speaker 11: because that basically allows them to glide into the conference,
- 1:09:12Speaker 11: finals where whoever comes out of That Spurs nuggets is
- 1:09:16Speaker 11: coming out of a.
- 1:09:16Speaker 8: Battle.
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah that being, Said i'm still Taking. Spurs he's.
- 1:09:20Speaker 12: TAKEN i am not mad at that was my number one,
- 1:09:22Speaker 12: pick BUT i knew IF i wasn't number, One i'm lying.
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: Too damn good is that?
- 1:09:26Speaker 12: Guy it's so add six inches On spencer and then
- 1:09:30Speaker 12: give them a. Handle everything else bounce and eat foot
- 1:09:35Speaker 12: Arms Alien did you?
- 1:09:37Speaker 8: Say?
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: Yeah all, Right, ashley you have the second overall. Selection
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: where are you going to go With wimby off the?
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: Board you know What i'm not gonna, do Right i'm
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: around with a thunder right, here.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: Won't ever do?
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: It dang.
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: IT i will Take Jason.
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: Tatum Jason. Tatum interesting picking is he ready to is
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: take over his accustomed role of being the number one
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: guy When Jalen Brown spencer has done it all year.
- 1:10:06Speaker 11: Long that's an interesting one because there's it's a pecking
- 1:10:12Speaker 11: order that's Obviously Jalen brown came in first and was
- 1:10:15Speaker 11: always kind of a, robin you, know second, superstar and
- 1:10:20Speaker 11: Now tatum coming, back WHICH i don't think anybody, expected
- 1:10:23Speaker 11: maybe other than The celtics And tatum being able to
- 1:10:25Speaker 11: come back by the end of the regular. Season SO
- 1:10:28Speaker 11: i don't know how that's going to play. OUT i
- 1:10:30Speaker 11: don't hate the, pick BUT i probably would have Gone
- 1:10:32Speaker 11: Jayleen brown before.
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: That but that was it was a toss up for,
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: me BUT i decided HE'S i, mean he's.
- 1:10:37Speaker 1: He's a guy that's done it for the last, yeah,
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: exactly AND i do THINK i do think The celtics
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: are getting to THE Nba, finals SO Ii, leen The,
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: celtics myself in the in The, east all, Right, well
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: maybe you guys aren't doing just out of, principle BUT
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: i would take, This, YEAH i, mean it was a
- 1:10:53Speaker 1: toss up for, Me SO i don't blame.
- 1:10:55Speaker 3: You i've never taken him and you know THAT i
- 1:10:57Speaker 3: don't take anyone from that, Team i'm gonna go.
- 1:10:59Speaker 1: Ask And i'll just ask the Question. SPENCER i, mean
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: there's this thought of when you make, It wemby's got
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: to get deep into the playoffs and then get knocked.
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: Out there's this feeling that Even, jordan you had to
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: get to a certain, point you had to learn how
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: to lose what it took to get over the. Hump
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: spurs haven't done that. Before but also The spurs seem
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: to have an advantage matchup wise With. Okac they kind
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: of ran them off the court a few times this.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: Year so what prevails.
- 1:11:29Speaker 11: What they got four out of, FIVE i think with
- 1:11:31Speaker 11: a playing victory as, well and you do you do
- 1:11:35Speaker 11: until you. DON'T i think That i'm not a huge
- 1:11:37Speaker 11: fan of that kind of misnomer that you, know you
- 1:11:41Speaker 11: got to take your, lumps you gotta. Lose it's like
- 1:11:43Speaker 11: if you're ready and maybe ignorance is blissed and you
- 1:11:46Speaker 11: just kind of run the table on through. It so,
- 1:11:49Speaker 11: YEAH i think the, experience however it shakes out for The,
- 1:11:53Speaker 11: spurs is going to be invaluable for. Them but they
- 1:11:57Speaker 11: might just be good enough that they don't they can
- 1:11:58Speaker 11: skip that portion of.
- 1:11:59Speaker 1: It if you. Are maybe they. Are, yeah we shall.
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: See BUT i am going to take s G a.
- 1:12:05Speaker 1: Here let all of your hate mail come to me right.
- 1:12:08Speaker 1: Now all, right, kid you got back to back selections.
- 1:12:10Speaker 1: Here it's OUR nba playoff. Preview we're drafting players for.
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: Points what do you? Got i'll take the.
- 1:12:15Speaker 12: Back i'll Take Jay brown and then also Take Jalen.
- 1:12:18Speaker 12: Brunson so, oh you're just gonna have a whole team
- 1:12:21Speaker 12: Of jalen's that we. Have, OKAY i see what you did.
- 1:12:25Speaker 1: There, yeah Save durhan for you as well if you.
- 1:12:27Speaker 12: Like you, know, uh he's the if you want to
- 1:12:31Speaker 12: give me, REBOUNDS i will gladly take him with my
- 1:12:34Speaker 12: third second.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: Choice, Absolutely And Jalen rose you. Can i'll just give
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: you an Added Jalen rose gonna write it in. Here
- 1:12:42Speaker 1: you get all Of jalen points in the playoffs this.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: Year Uh, so how far do you think The knicks are? Going?
- 1:12:49Speaker 12: THEN i think The knicks will beat The, hawks, okay
- 1:12:52Speaker 12: and then they will pace The. Celtics So i'll take
- 1:12:55Speaker 12: WHOEVER i think they'll Probably, OKAY i see what you're
- 1:12:58Speaker 12: doing one. AGAIN i just, YEAH i GUESS i would Take.
- 1:13:02Speaker 12: BOSTON i Think they're a better team than they were last,
- 1:13:04Speaker 12: season AND i think their defense is hitting a stride
- 1:13:07Speaker 12: where last, YEAR i think The knicks were just a
- 1:13:10Speaker 12: hair better and you saw. It SO i think The
- 1:13:12Speaker 12: Boston stettics will take that rein and be, like, sorry,
- 1:13:15Speaker 12: guys what happened last year is not gonna happen this.
- 1:13:17Speaker 12: Year AND i Expect Jalen brown to be the catalyst
- 1:13:20Speaker 12: BECAUSE i don't know If tatum's, ready BUT i also
- 1:13:22Speaker 12: think right now he's the hot, hand and why would you, say,
- 1:13:25Speaker 12: hey you know, What we're not going to give you the,
- 1:13:27Speaker 12: Ball Jalen, Tatum you're back to where you used to.
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: Be go.
- 1:13:30Speaker 12: AHEAD i think they're just playing it by how they see.
- 1:13:32Speaker 12: THINGS i Think jayen's gonna get it.
- 1:13:34Speaker 1: Done Would hawks have a chance against The, Knicks they
- 1:13:37Speaker 1: got a.
- 1:13:37Speaker 11: Chance they're fun to. WATCH i think that the moves
- 1:13:41Speaker 11: they made at the deadline going out maybe not right
- 1:13:45Speaker 11: at the, deadline but GETTING cj McCullum and having a
- 1:13:49Speaker 11: go to kind of playoff mudball type PLAYER i think
- 1:13:52Speaker 11: was a big. Acquisition Quinn SNYDER i respect as much
- 1:13:57Speaker 11: as any. COACH i think he's gonna throw the kitchen
- 1:13:59Speaker 11: sink on them in the. House, Yep Mersey island. First
- 1:14:02Speaker 11: McDonald's All american from the state Of, washington far. FACT
- 1:14:08Speaker 11: i don't think they, will but they definitely are more than.
- 1:14:10Speaker 11: Capable All, right.
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: All, RIGHT i got the next. Pick i'm gonna. GO
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: i don't think they're going to, win dang.
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: IT i know what you're going to.
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: DO i don't think they're going to make it to
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: THE Nba, finals BUT i think they're going to play
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: in three. Series and he is undoubtedly one of the
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: best scorers in the. League right, Now i'm Taking Kay
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: Gunning Detroit. PISTONS i like. THAT i like that. Pick
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: what do you, Think? PISTONS i, mean it's kind of
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: the same thing With San. Antonio are they ready to
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: take that? Step they had a phenomenal year this, year
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: but are they ready to go all the way to
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: THE Nba? Finals? Yet different game the playoffs it, is
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: and But cade's built for.
- 1:14:44Speaker 11: IT i think he's, uh he's shown over the you,
- 1:14:47Speaker 11: know not just the, year but not just this, year
- 1:14:50Speaker 11: but over the course of his, career you, know through
- 1:14:53Speaker 11: twenty and sixty seasons to where they are now that
- 1:14:56Speaker 11: he's he's ready to you, know he's made that, step
- 1:14:58Speaker 11: AND i think this is the next aggression for him
- 1:15:01Speaker 11: is being able to do in the playoffs and have
- 1:15:02Speaker 11: a lead to winning.
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: Series all, Right, ashley round number, two third, pick your
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: second pick at the? Draft who you adding To Jason?
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: TATUM i can't just leave him sitting. There i'll take the.
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: Joker, oh taking the. Joker, Now i'll tell you this
- 1:15:16Speaker 1: is What bucky did last. Year he did not think
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: about anything other Than i'm just going to take the
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: four best players that are on the. Board so he
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: had Like Anthony edwards And djokich And. Doncic maybe he
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: didn't Have, Doncic.
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: NO i THINK i, did but he had like.
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: Four he just took the best players that were available and, said,
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: well let's see how the results end. Up we didn't
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: take them because we didn't think those teams were going
- 1:15:38Speaker 1: to advance very far in the, playoffs and he ended
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: up winning last YEAR'S nba. Playoffs so what do you
- 1:15:43Speaker 1: Think jokic? Nuggets how dangerous are?
- 1:15:47Speaker 10: They?
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: SPENCER i mean THEY i think they could win it
- 1:15:51Speaker 1: just as easily as. Anybody is that?
- 1:15:53Speaker 11: Right they GOT i think there's three teams in The
- 1:15:56Speaker 11: west to me that all have a. SHOT i think
- 1:15:59Speaker 11: the fall up after The nuggets is pretty, Significant BUT
- 1:16:03Speaker 11: i think any any of those three at the top
- 1:16:05Speaker 11: are more than. Capable and that was WHO i wanted to.
- 1:16:07Speaker 1: Pick that's who you. Wanted SO i took cunning in from.
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: You she Took joker from. You you've got back to
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: back picks. Here who are you gonna? Take let's.
- 1:16:15Speaker 11: See So i'm trying to be a little more strategic
- 1:16:18Speaker 11: and looking at matchups and not stacking guys that are
- 1:16:21Speaker 11: going to play each other in the second. Round So
- 1:16:22Speaker 11: i'm gonna Go Spider Donovan, Mitchell gonna go With Donovan, Mitchell,
- 1:16:27Speaker 11: Okay and it's a tough. ONE i might as well
- 1:16:35Speaker 11: just stay on The spurs. Train i'm going with The,
- 1:16:37Speaker 11: fox all, Right Aaron, fox you know you can do.
- 1:16:41Speaker 11: That you're, like if you're believe in The, spurs then
- 1:16:43Speaker 11: double down on.
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: It for goodness. SAKE i like.
- 1:16:45Speaker 11: It there's no so joker, obviously that's that's an easy.
- 1:16:49Speaker 11: One but for, me If i'm looking at they're gonna
- 1:16:51Speaker 11: meet each other in the second, round that doesn't give
- 1:16:52Speaker 11: me the that doesn't give me the RUNWAY i.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: Need So i'm trying TO i think you're still both
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: you two avoiding thunder at all. COSTS i AM.
- 1:17:02Speaker 11: I that he was probably my next, choice BUT i
- 1:17:05Speaker 11: just don't know that he's he's one hundred percent.
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: Right, okay all, right here we, Go, Ashley you've got
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: the next, Selection Tatum, joker where are you going in round?
- 1:17:15Speaker 2: THREE i, mean, Uh i'm gonna go With James.
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: Harden, Oh James. Harden all, Right so let's talk about
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: The cavaliers, then since we've taken Two cavaliers with our
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: ten picks thus. FAR i, MEAN i think they got
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: a little tricky match up here Against Scottie barnes and
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: The raptors here in round number, one and then they'd
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: have to Face. Detroit DO i have to worry About
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: cleveland here getting through a couple.
- 1:17:40Speaker 11: Rounds they're just such an enigma to. Me it's like
- 1:17:45Speaker 11: every Time i'm ready to buy, in they just fizzle,
- 1:17:48Speaker 11: out and it's like they go out. Quietly it's never
- 1:17:51Speaker 11: some disastrous. Situation BUT i THINK i didn't Think toronto
- 1:17:56Speaker 11: would be any good this. YEAR i saw him play
- 1:17:58Speaker 11: i think the second year of the, season second game
- 1:18:00Speaker 11: of the season down In San, antonio AND i thought
- 1:18:02Speaker 11: they'd be a lottery, Team so credit to. THEM i
- 1:18:05Speaker 11: was wrong on. That and they they got a funky.
- 1:18:09Speaker 11: Lineup they can throw a lot of things at. Them
- 1:18:11Speaker 11: and it's all about matchups in the, player it's about.
- 1:18:15Speaker 11: Matchups and it gets rocking up there in The north
- 1:18:17Speaker 11: come playoff, time and ESPECIALLY i don't know how The
- 1:18:20Speaker 11: leafs are doing this, year but they always seem to.
- 1:18:22Speaker 11: Underwhelm so you, Know raptors made a basketball. Country m all.
- 1:18:26Speaker 1: Right so the Second cavalier has come off the. Board James,
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: harden good. Thing we're not doing points.
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: Allowed, yeah we're not going off all.
- 1:18:38Speaker 1: Right, WELL i believe in The spurs quite a bit.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: Myself it's now time for me to take my First.
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: Spur give. ME i love this, Guy Stephen. CASTLE i
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: love the way that he. Plays So i'm gonna Take
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: castle here in round. Three, well look THAT i take your.
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: Guy no you. Didn't OH i didn't take. Her, no
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: my guy is still available And i'll get.
- 1:18:56Speaker 10: Him.
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: Yeah what do you like do YOU? I?
- 1:18:57Speaker 8: Castle?
- 1:18:58Speaker 11: YEAH i don't know about for points in the. Playoffs oh,
- 1:19:01Speaker 11: OH i like this little. Criticism but, NO i mean,
- 1:19:05Speaker 11: yeah he could average twenty two and it surprised. Me
- 1:19:08Speaker 11: BUT i, think, UH i think for the next decade,
- 1:19:11Speaker 11: plus he's going to be closer to the top end
- 1:19:13Speaker 11: of the draft board than.
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: Not, okay all, right all right, kid you got back
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: to back. Selections you round out your. Team what two
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: Other jalens do you? Want, Well i'll stay with The.
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: Jays can you? Imagine, OKAY i will Take Jamal.
- 1:19:23Speaker 12: Murray mister microwavee great. Pick SO i expect them to
- 1:19:29Speaker 12: handle business against great in the playoffs.
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: Too, yeah he. Is AND i love the matchup with The.
- 1:19:33Speaker 12: SPURS i, Mean i'm sure you saw that, finale well
- 1:19:36Speaker 12: not a, finale but two weeks, ago was.
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: It that might have been the best GAME i seen?
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: IT i thought it.
- 1:19:40Speaker 8: Was it.
- 1:19:42Speaker 12: Was, YEAH i was supposed to go running AND i, said,
- 1:19:45Speaker 12: well this game is on not gonna. Happen but, yeah
- 1:19:48Speaker 12: it was just a really good. Game AND i think
- 1:19:50Speaker 12: it's an epic preview for what's to. COME i think
- 1:19:52Speaker 12: it'll go seven AND i think could be the tipping.
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: Factor no. Discredit so are you're telling me right now
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: you're like The nuggets over The.
- 1:19:58Speaker 12: Spurs it's really tough for me not to take The
- 1:20:01Speaker 12: nuggets because they have all the recipe to do. It
- 1:20:05Speaker 12: but then again the alien if you they, healthy probably,
- 1:20:08Speaker 12: Not i'll be.
- 1:20:10Speaker 11: Honest always that seems to be there kind of buggaby
- 1:20:12Speaker 11: the last few. Years and, Yeah Aaron gordon's Hamstringt Hayden watson's.
- 1:20:17Speaker 1: Hamstring, yeah don't Touch. Luca let's see team. Here this

- 1:20:50Speaker 11: That the fact that we're not getting updates every day
- 1:20:53Speaker 11: probably speaks the point that he's a little further out
- 1:20:56Speaker 11: than that maybe some. Expect but, YEAH i think IT'S
- 1:21:01Speaker 11: i think it's just a health health, situation which is
- 1:21:04Speaker 11: a shame because The lakers before those guys got hurt
- 1:21:06Speaker 11: were playing as well as. Everybody, well they're built for the.
- 1:21:09Speaker 11: PLAYOFFS i think the Way luca can orchestraate on. Offense,
- 1:21:12Speaker 11: obviously he's dragged a team to the finals that didn't
- 1:21:15Speaker 11: have much business being. There but it's too bad BECAUSE
- 1:21:18Speaker 11: i was really, watching you, Know lebron had kind of
- 1:21:20Speaker 11: accepted being the off, ball kind of third option in
- 1:21:23Speaker 11: the pecking, order AND i was looking forward to seeing,
- 1:21:25Speaker 11: that and it's, Like i'll never get to see.
- 1:21:28Speaker 12: It so, yeah that made it easy for. ME i
- 1:21:30Speaker 12: was thinking, that but Hearing spencer brigit all, DOWN i
- 1:21:33Speaker 12: am one percent on. It give Me Kevin, durant.
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: Gonna go WITH, kd Not Jalen. Williams you, KNOW i
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: had a, chance he had a chance to go All jalen's.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: HERE i, did but you, know no one's ever done
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: it in the history Of green jack a.
- 1:21:44Speaker 12: Draft you, KNOW i think his. HAMSTRING i know it's you,

- 1:22:15Speaker 1: my other to double, up double down on. Thunders but
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: MAYBE i will double down on. Thunders UH i.
- 1:22:25Speaker 2: Might?
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: Uh all, RIGHT i Go Peyton, pritchard interesting bench. Player
- 1:22:34Speaker 1: seventeen points per game during the, SEASON i think them. Off,
- 1:22:38Speaker 1: yeah you. Did you Take Derek white and you you.
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: Predictable this is WHAT i always, do and it always.
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: Fails this is why always won.
- 1:22:47Speaker 12: You you took him and he actually went crazy and
- 1:22:49Speaker 12: you had a really good. Run BUT i think you
- 1:22:50Speaker 12: lost a star somewhere in.
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: There they got. Hurt, Yeah John moran wasn't? It was? It,
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: yes that's what. Happened you Had Derek white played well
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: and Then John moran is. OOPSIE i just think you
- 1:23:00Speaker 1: know seven if he's get, well maybe he doesn't scores.
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: Frequently now The tatum's, BACK i don't, know but seventeen
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: points per game if they play twenty two, games that's

- 1:23:18Speaker 3: I i am going to take Another jalen, Though i'm
- 1:23:21Speaker 3: going to Take Jalen Duran.
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: Okay of The. Pistons, yeah all, Right Jalen duran big.
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: Man no for his, defense but he averaged nineteen and
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: a half points the game. Mission that's What i'm. Saying
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: we'll see what happens when the playoffs get.
- 1:23:33Speaker 2: Going he's going to average forty.
- 1:23:35Speaker 1: Five oh, god well they were winning the. Championship spencer's
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: crapped on my last two, picks so feel free to
- 1:23:41Speaker 1: crap crap on all, Right, spencer you got the last.

- 1:24:09Speaker 1: be around very. Long i'm with you on, that all.
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: Right So Jalen williams the last selection For, spencer and
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: he's actually better in the playoffs usually than he is.
- 1:24:21Speaker 1: Now chuck's, like damn it probably.

- 1:24:43Speaker 1: fifteen plus for he only plays ten and even in,

- 1:28:30Speaker 1: not gonna have postseason hockey here In seattle again this.
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: Year if you could pinpoint them where it went? Wrong
- 1:28:39Speaker 1: what is what is the one thing that just didn't come?
- 1:28:41Speaker 1: Together otherwise we'd be getting ready for The Stanley cup
- 1:28:44Speaker 1: playoffs right.
- 1:28:45Speaker 10: Now, yeah this one's a pretty easy. One shock that
- 1:28:49Speaker 10: since the since the Post olympic, break the goals against
- 1:28:53Speaker 10: average has jumped for The kraken by almost a goal
- 1:28:56Speaker 10: point eight point eight seven goals per. Game you might, say,
- 1:28:59Speaker 10: well point eight seven. Goals that's not a full, goal
- 1:29:02Speaker 10: but we've looked at all the games this year and
- 1:29:05Speaker 10: all of the, wins and most of them are games
- 1:29:09Speaker 10: where the Crack and are able to keep the goals
- 1:29:11Speaker 10: against to three or. Less and that and up until
- 1:29:14Speaker 10: That olympic, break they were averaging two point eight to
- 1:29:16Speaker 10: eight goals against per. Game after the, break it's three
- 1:29:20Speaker 10: point seventy five goals per. Game and again it doesn't
- 1:29:23Speaker 10: sound like a, lot but that additional goal because The
- 1:29:26Speaker 10: cracking just don't have that top end scoring that can
- 1:29:30Speaker 10: that can you, know score their way out of the
- 1:29:32Speaker 10: game is the reason why they've been on the wrong
- 1:29:35Speaker 10: side of a lot of these games Post olympic. Break,
- 1:29:38Speaker 10: now that still doesn't give you necessarily a why, answer
- 1:29:41Speaker 10: but that's a piece of data is to ait why
- 1:29:44Speaker 10: why are they giving up one one goal more a.
- 1:29:46Speaker 10: Game you can only look at the defensive side of
- 1:29:49Speaker 10: the pock and, say you, know why is the other
- 1:29:52Speaker 10: team getting more high danger? Chances are? They why are
- 1:29:56Speaker 10: more goals going is a goal tom, problem is a
- 1:29:58Speaker 10: defensive structure, problem and maybe all of the. Above the
- 1:30:02Speaker 10: power plays pitt the dismal as of, late so power
- 1:30:05Speaker 10: play goals are going in more often as. Well so
- 1:30:08Speaker 10: all these things point to that additional you, know point
- 1:30:11Speaker 10: eighty seven goals per, game and that's a big reason for.
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: It Al kinisky is WITH us Color analyst for Your
- 1:30:15Speaker 1: Seattle crack AND i Asked everett this. YESTERDAY i BUT
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: i have to get your opinion on it as. Well
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: what was your reaction To todd L Ii wiki's press
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: conference last? Week as you, know just a crack and
- 1:30:28Speaker 1: employee but also a crack and, fan what did you
- 1:30:31Speaker 1: think of the boss man coming out the way that
- 1:30:33Speaker 1: he Did?
- 1:30:34Speaker 10: Friday, YEAH i thought it was. SOBERING i thought it
- 1:30:38Speaker 10: was sobering in that you, Know todd was was was
- 1:30:42Speaker 10: speaking from the heart of the. Organization you, know, this
- 1:30:46Speaker 10: this intentional move to get, BETTER i think will be well.
- 1:30:51Speaker 10: Received you, know it wasn't a message of, hey just
- 1:30:55Speaker 10: wasn't our year this. Year it was something needs to be.
- 1:30:58Speaker 10: Fixed something's not working. Here we don't know what it.
- 1:31:00Speaker 10: Is we're going to get help from an outside. Firm
- 1:31:03Speaker 10: we're going to make some. Changes we're going to probably
- 1:31:05Speaker 10: bring in some more. Players we're going to do some
- 1:31:08Speaker 10: things between now And september that are going to turn
- 1:31:12Speaker 10: the turn the ship, around so to. Speak and and
- 1:31:16Speaker 10: AND i like that about his leadership. STYLE i like
- 1:31:18Speaker 10: that about his his uh you, know intention in those.
- 1:31:23Speaker 10: Words BUT i thought it was a real sobering message
- 1:31:25Speaker 10: coming From todd Day wiki.
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: The off, season do you expect one or two major?
- 1:31:31Speaker 1: Things do you expect him a complete overhaul of? ROSTER
- 1:31:36Speaker 1: i know that you expect Land Lane lambert to be.
- 1:31:39Speaker 1: BACK i don't think that that move's going to be.
- 1:31:41Speaker 1: Made so what does the offseason look? Like what can we?
- 1:31:44Speaker 10: Expect, YEAH i mean the krack can have some UFAs
- 1:31:49Speaker 10: that they have, to uh to manage this. Summer Jamie,
- 1:31:52Speaker 10: Schwartz Elie, Tolnen bobby, McMahon Jamie. Alexiak those are those
- 1:31:56Speaker 10: are the Four and, listen you, know the decisions have
- 1:32:01Speaker 10: to be made between the, players their agents and the.
- 1:32:05Speaker 10: Management what are they looking for in their next? Contract you,
- 1:32:09Speaker 10: know what is the team looking for out of? Them
- 1:32:12Speaker 10: and in the case of a guy Like bobby, McMahon
- 1:32:14Speaker 10: well he's looking for A briggs truck to back up
- 1:32:17Speaker 10: to his front. Door because he's making one point three
- 1:32:19Speaker 10: million right, now and so big question is does he
- 1:32:23Speaker 10: want to stay In? Seattle what would it take for
- 1:32:25Speaker 10: him to stay In? Seattle and Is seattle prepared to
- 1:32:28Speaker 10: pay him what that? Is that's going to be one
- 1:32:30Speaker 10: of the bigger. CONVERSATIONS i think that If seattle is
- 1:32:33Speaker 10: able to hold on to him and come to terms
- 1:32:36Speaker 10: on a number that works for both, sides that's a
- 1:32:39Speaker 10: huge win For. Seattle bobby McMahon has proven that he's
- 1:32:43Speaker 10: a top three. Forward he's a guy that could push
- 1:32:47Speaker 10: easily forty goals next. Season he's a guy that could
- 1:32:51Speaker 10: push sixty seventy points or more next. Season so this
- 1:32:56Speaker 10: is maybe this isn't The connor McDavid or The nathan
- 1:32:58Speaker 10: McKinnon that every, wants but it's that next run down
- 1:33:03Speaker 10: of a top forward that could potentially score your way
- 1:33:06Speaker 10: out of the.
- 1:33:07Speaker 1: GAME i mentioned this earlier in the. WEEK i, mean
- 1:33:10Speaker 1: if not for all the, losses we would have thought
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: that was the best trade. Ever the way That bobby
- 1:33:16Speaker 1: McMahon put it seemed at the time that you needed
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: a goal, scorer and it seemed that he was getting
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: a goal every night even though you weren't winning. GAMES i,
- 1:33:25Speaker 1: MEAN i don't like the concept of going all in
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: on anything in. SPORTS i think you always have to
- 1:33:32Speaker 1: have to some degree sort of a measured approach with
- 1:33:35Speaker 1: all things as a general. Manager but when it comes to,
- 1:33:39Speaker 1: him is this one of your would you put this
- 1:33:42Speaker 1: in the category of whatever it, Takes, like you, know
- 1:33:45Speaker 1: let's let's get. Him let's make sure that we have
- 1:33:48Speaker 1: the highest bid On bobby McMahon this. Offseason, well WHEN
- 1:33:51Speaker 1: i look.
- 1:33:52Speaker 10: At the other contracts You jordan eberlieve at five and a,
- 1:33:54Speaker 10: Half jared McCann's at five Together stevens is at six point,
- 1:33:58Speaker 10: two it tells me that a guy Like bobby McMahon
- 1:34:01Speaker 10: is probably somewhere in that. Arena you're not going to
- 1:34:03Speaker 10: get him to three million, bucks you, know but if
- 1:34:06Speaker 10: he wants, seven that could be that could be. Challenging
- 1:34:09Speaker 10: so really it just depends on what they are looking.
- 1:34:13Speaker 10: For i've only spoken To bobby a few, times not
- 1:34:17Speaker 10: necessarily about how things are going so, far but you
- 1:34:20Speaker 10: hope that he's really enjoying his time In, seattle playing
- 1:34:24Speaker 10: for a coach who he's familiar, with being in a
- 1:34:27Speaker 10: cool city Like seattle. LIKE i hope he's getting a
- 1:34:30Speaker 10: lot of benefit out of this, short small sample size
- 1:34:33Speaker 10: that he has of being here where he. Goes, YEAH
- 1:34:35Speaker 10: i couldn't see myself here for an extame period of,
- 1:34:38Speaker 10: time AND i do like playing under Under Lane. Lambert
- 1:34:41Speaker 10: so if that's the case and they can agree to a,
- 1:34:43Speaker 10: NUMBER i think that could be one of the biggest
- 1:34:45Speaker 10: wins of the.
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: Offseason all, Right, well it didn't go the way we
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: wanted this, year but we will have another conversation before
- 1:34:52Speaker 1: we let you head up north to do all your meat,
- 1:34:56Speaker 1: eating and so certainly appreciate you join us here again this,
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: week and we will talk to you next week to
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: put a rap on all of this. Thing what do you,
- 1:35:06Speaker 1: SAY i look forward to a? Joke all? Right, there
- 1:35:08Speaker 1: he Is Al koniski color analyst for Your Seattle crack
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: and they are in action tonight against The Las Vegas Golden.
- 1:35:14Speaker 1: Knights we didn't spend much time on that game for obvious,
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: reasons but obviously a huge monster off season for this,
- 1:35:21Speaker 1: organization and based off Of todd Light wiki's, comments and
- 1:35:25Speaker 1: that was On, thursday not On, friday we can expect
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: to see a little bit of a shakeup to a
- 1:35:32Speaker 1: lot of a. Shakeup there will be some shakeup, involved
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: and so we anticipate what that's going to look. Like
