1:16
Speaker 2: our buddy Rob Rieger from chie Said TV's Draft Guide,
1:20
Speaker 2: Lockdown Packers and just an NFL Draft Riggs. It is
1:23
Speaker 2: this Christmas Merry Christmas, Riggs, welcome, thanks for getting up early.
1:27
Speaker 5: Hi, baby man.
1:28
Speaker 6: It is crazy.
1:29
Speaker 7: It's kind of funny listen to you, guys, because like
1:31
Speaker 7: tales of drafts passed.
1:33
Speaker 6: Is a big deal for me. So yeah for me, Billy.
1:36
Speaker 7: It was twenty thirteen watching the draft at home. Packers
1:40
Speaker 7: had just lost Greg Jennings via free agency, and they're
1:43
Speaker 7: looking for a replacement for him, and there's a young
1:46
Speaker 7: DeAndre Hopkins wide receiver from Clemson lurking out there, and
1:51
Speaker 7: the Packers went up and they picked Dayton Jones, which
1:54
Speaker 7: led to meet taking a controller and I was a
1:57
Speaker 7: picture in college, by the way, shout out to you,
2:00
Speaker 7: and I whipped my controller as hard as I could
2:02
Speaker 7: at my television and shatter the entire thing. In the
2:06
Speaker 7: twenty thirteen draft, I lost the television due to the
2:10
Speaker 7: Packers drafting because I wanted DeAndre Hopkins so bad and
2:14
Speaker 7: they picked I got.
2:16
Speaker 8: Passion reacause I got to ask you, you have been
2:19
Speaker 8: vociferous and vocal about the drafts. You haven't liked what
2:22
Speaker 8: the Packers have done, which is totally fair. I mean
2:24
Speaker 8: you've had other opinions and a lot of times they're
2:26
Speaker 8: proven to be have Have there any been Have there
2:28
Speaker 8: been times when you remember saying, you know what, this
2:30
Speaker 8: is exactly what I think the Packers should have done,
2:32
Speaker 8: and they have done it where you've actually been happy
2:34
Speaker 8: about their outcome anywhere in the draft.
2:36
Speaker 9: Early late it.
2:37
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's been twice. Arm And that's a great question.
2:39
Speaker 7: So the twenty fourteen draft, I was a big fan
2:42
Speaker 7: of haha. Clinton Dick's actually one of the two jerseys
2:44
Speaker 7: that I owned, and Eddie Lacy is the other one
2:47
Speaker 7: or the two jerseys that I own in my house.
2:49
Speaker 6: And then the next picked after that was DeVante Adams.
2:51
Speaker 6: And twenty nineteen was a great draft. I thought that.
2:54
Speaker 7: Brian Dudekun's career started out really, really hot. He had
2:57
Speaker 7: his first draft where he ended up with Jay R Alexander.
3:00
Speaker 7: He ended up with that first round pick an extra
3:04
Speaker 7: first round pick with his maneuvering twenty nineteen. His first
3:08
Speaker 7: three picks were Sean Gary and then you know, Savage
3:10
Speaker 7: was a multi year starter for the team, so it
3:12
Speaker 7: wasn't like a total buzz. And then they went Elton
3:14
Speaker 7: Jenkins the next the next pick. So I mean there
3:17
Speaker 7: were several drafts. I mean, if you go way back,
3:21
Speaker 7: I mean even that Dayton Jones draft wasn't a bad
3:23
Speaker 7: draft overall. I mean they drafted David Bactieri, Eddie Lacy,
3:26
Speaker 7: and Michaeh Hyde in that same draft.
3:28
Speaker 6: So, I mean there's been several drafts that I've really liked.
3:31
Speaker 7: It's just been kind of recently that have been I
3:35
Speaker 7: haven't been a real big fan of it. But you know,
3:37
Speaker 7: the funny thing I was thinking about, guys, it's just
3:39
Speaker 7: really quick is that now this year with the location
3:42
Speaker 7: of the draft, because I mean, I think all of
3:44
Speaker 7: us are most of us attended that draft last year,
3:47
Speaker 7: so I don't get to see the television version.
3:50
Speaker 9: Of the draft.
3:51
Speaker 7: You know. So the entire time that mel kiper Junior
3:54
Speaker 7: was having his conniption fit after about pick five, that
3:58
Speaker 7: teams were not drafting shud Or Sanders until he got
4:00
Speaker 7: finally picked at I didn't see any of that until
4:04
Speaker 7: way after the fact. It's all like the highlights of it,
4:07
Speaker 7: But at the time, I think that would be hilarious
4:09
Speaker 7: to have been actually watching TV when I was going down.
4:12
Speaker 4: It's one of my one of my favorite things to
4:14
Speaker 4: do after the draft show reads is exactly that I
4:16
Speaker 4: go in and try to find all the online sizzle,
4:18
Speaker 4: real things that I missed throughout it. Uh like, oh,
4:21
Speaker 4: it was the mentalist on the McAfee one a couple
4:23
Speaker 4: of years ago. I think I always always fires me up.
4:26
Speaker 4: But like even the Jordan Morgan pick a couple of
4:29
Speaker 4: years ago came out of left field. But then after
4:32
Speaker 4: the draft we're able to hearing Bill Belichick talk as
4:34
Speaker 4: glowingly as he did about him. Now, maybe that wasn't
4:36
Speaker 4: great because his draft exploits late in his career weren't
4:38
Speaker 4: all that weren't all that sound. But to be able
4:41
Speaker 4: to hear where the where the the conversation was while
4:45
Speaker 4: you're somewhat suspended from it is a great thing to
4:48
Speaker 4: be able to see where do you see it? Kind
4:49
Speaker 4: of starting tonight, isn't it too? With Bailey and Reese?
4:52
Speaker 4: Because it's felt like for the majority of the time,
4:55
Speaker 4: people just put Rvel Reese in there. But then you
4:58
Speaker 4: watch the tape and you watch David Bailey, Domin and
5:00
Speaker 4: eight whoever was in front of him, and hard to
5:02
Speaker 4: not think the Jets go there, even though it does
5:04
Speaker 4: seem like a little bit of a split decision right.
5:06
Speaker 7: Now, Billy, It's the hardest thing that I do is
5:08
Speaker 7: try to predict us in the head of other people.
5:11
Speaker 7: And I'm not reads the mentalist at all. It doesn't
5:14
Speaker 7: apply to me. I don't know how to read other
5:16
Speaker 7: people's minds like that. But it's a great point. I
5:18
Speaker 7: think that both players are a great player, so I
5:20
Speaker 7: don't think of that necessarily as drama. Whether you take
5:23
Speaker 7: Bailey or Reese, I think you're getting a great player
5:25
Speaker 7: either way.
5:26
Speaker 6: So I mean, I'm kind of leaning toward Bailey right now.
5:29
Speaker 7: I think that he's a little bit more of a
5:31
Speaker 7: finished product, whereas Reese is a little bit more development
5:33
Speaker 7: and upside type of thing for me. Going back to
5:36
Speaker 7: your question, is I think the Jeremiah Love saga is
5:40
Speaker 7: going to be something that people are going to be
5:42
Speaker 7: very interested in because a lot of people are saying that, well,
5:45
Speaker 7: Arizona needs a running back. They need a playmaker, but
5:48
Speaker 7: is three a little bit too rich or they're going
5:49
Speaker 7: to try to move back and still get him. Washington's
5:52
Speaker 7: in play tennis season play the Giants now that they
5:55
Speaker 7: have Harbaugh. You know that they're going to want to
5:57
Speaker 7: run the ball. Are they in play at number five?
6:00
Speaker 7: So you're looking at probably from about three, four, five, seven,
6:05
Speaker 7: you're going to be Is that where that Jeremiah Love
6:08
Speaker 7: is going to start? The speculation is going to go
6:10
Speaker 7: and you could have a team from out of left
6:12
Speaker 7: field that trades up to get him because he likes
6:14
Speaker 7: him that much.
6:15
Speaker 5: Okay, well, Jeremiah Love, Is he a bigger Jamir Gibbs.
6:20
Speaker 6: I mean I love him both, man.
6:22
Speaker 7: I mean it gives to me is a little bit shiftier,
6:24
Speaker 7: but loves a little bigger.
6:25
Speaker 6: He can get to between the tackles. So you know,
6:28
Speaker 6: I don't think it can go wrong.
6:29
Speaker 7: But there's kind of an interesting thing going on with
6:31
Speaker 7: that is that with him specifically, is that the day
6:35
Speaker 7: he gets drafted top five, he becomes the seventh highest
6:38
Speaker 7: paid running back in the league.
6:39
Speaker 3: That is interesting because guys aren' getting drafted.
6:42
Speaker 2: High, so then he's the only first round label running
6:47
Speaker 2: back when's the next running back come off the board?
6:49
Speaker 3: And two?
6:52
Speaker 7: I mean, I mean, yeah, I mean Mike Washington and
6:54
Speaker 7: I know Billy love Jendarian Price, and so do I. I
6:56
Speaker 7: think Jenderian Price would be a great player. But I mean,
6:58
Speaker 7: do we really want to do that for our back
7:00
Speaker 7: up running.
7:00
Speaker 6: Back this year? Well, that's yeah, that's what I mean.
7:04
Speaker 6: I love both players.
7:05
Speaker 4: That would be a Packers move, though I was going
7:07
Speaker 4: to say very much would be a Packers Jacobs.
7:10
Speaker 3: So why would we use your fifty second pick on
7:11
Speaker 3: a running back.
7:12
Speaker 5: Because we're the Packer and he's going to get cut
7:13
Speaker 5: at the end of the year.
7:14
Speaker 8: For Caprick, Well, yeah, unless you believe, like be right, Billy,
7:17
Speaker 8: unless you believe he's going to grow into your starter.
7:18
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure Marshawn Lloyd.
7:20
Speaker 8: The Packers didn't think he was not going to play,
7:22
Speaker 8: but they had big dreams for him, drafting him well, assi.
7:25
Speaker 3: Fairly early, third round, not fairly early.
7:28
Speaker 8: But you know, I think we're changing our general opinion
7:32
Speaker 8: on drafting running backs earlier then we have like five
7:35
Speaker 8: ten years ago, where it was just like, all right,
7:36
Speaker 8: nobody ever put any value running backs anymore. But then
7:39
Speaker 8: I asked how does Ashton genty effect that, I mean
7:42
Speaker 8: an ordinary rookie ear and everyone thought he's gonna be
7:44
Speaker 8: super special.
7:45
Speaker 6: We also go back to A J. Dillon.
7:47
Speaker 3: A J.
7:47
Speaker 7: Dillon was the sc that's another one twenty so you
7:50
Speaker 7: know he was kind of coming as an heir apparent
7:52
Speaker 7: to Aaron Jones. So you don't know what's going to
7:54
Speaker 7: happen to Marshawn Lloyd as well. So, I mean, I
7:56
Speaker 7: think that they view it as a as a as
7:58
Speaker 7: a premium position.
8:00
Speaker 6: I just don't know how. I just think that we
8:02
Speaker 6: have other needs. That's the biggest thing for me.
8:04
Speaker 2: All Right, we're talking to Rob Riger, our draft go
8:06
Speaker 2: to guy who's been breaking it down for me on
8:08
Speaker 2: the radio for like ten years now.
8:09
Speaker 3: I think this is the tenth anniversary.
8:12
Speaker 2: Shout out, So all right, and looking at Goodi's drafts again,
8:16
Speaker 2: is it just is it too simplistic for me to
8:18
Speaker 2: think that his best drafts are when he has double
8:20
Speaker 2: digit picks because you get more shots, you know, you
8:23
Speaker 2: give me more attempts from behind the arc. I'm going
8:25
Speaker 2: to make more shots, right, But twenty two he had
8:30
Speaker 2: eleven picks. Like that draft hit the hits were better
8:33
Speaker 2: than miss let's say what you want, Kway Walker, DeVante Y,
8:36
Speaker 2: Christian Watson, Sean Ryan, Romeo dobs Zach, Tom Kingsley, Nagbari.
8:39
Speaker 2: That's a pretty good draft. And then you throw a
8:42
Speaker 2: Rasheed Walker down to the bottom of the in the
8:44
Speaker 2: late round. That's like that's Starter's contributors across the board.
8:48
Speaker 2: And it seems like his best drafts are when he
8:50
Speaker 2: has multiple, like you know, north of ten picks.
8:54
Speaker 7: I think for him, he's the guy who's willing to
8:57
Speaker 7: kind of take more chances in that case, and guys
8:59
Speaker 7: will maybe the more upside knowing that he has additional picks.
9:03
Speaker 7: But you could also, I mean take that a step
9:04
Speaker 7: further than the twenty twenty three draft. One year after
9:07
Speaker 7: that and then this first pick Lucas van Neez and
9:08
Speaker 7: Luke Musgrave.
9:10
Speaker 6: Was in the draft.
9:10
Speaker 7: Luckily they got bailed out by Tucker Kraft, but Jaden Reid.
9:15
Speaker 6: A little bit.
9:15
Speaker 7: But other than that, I mean that draft was right
9:17
Speaker 7: after that, he had a bunch of picks. I think
9:19
Speaker 7: he had what twelve picks.
9:20
Speaker 3: Two for us, yeah, thirteen, they had.
9:23
Speaker 7: Thirteen picks, So I mean you're looking at that and
9:25
Speaker 7: probably out of those guys craft crafty read Kolby Wooden.
9:32
Speaker 7: I mean it's okay, but Brooks, yeah, I think Oberli're right,
9:36
Speaker 7: So they might move a lot. I mean they may
9:38
Speaker 7: move back from number fifty two to try to pick
9:41
Speaker 7: up some extra picks.
9:42
Speaker 4: You never know well, and that seems like Reeg's want
9:44
Speaker 4: to still the spots that you can actually get right,
9:46
Speaker 4: because whether it's fifteen, eighteen, twenty two, fifty five, sixty five,
9:53
Speaker 4: it feels like there's going to be a very marginal
9:55
Speaker 4: difference in the player and a lot of times just
9:57
Speaker 4: comes down to development and opportunity more than anything in
10:00
Speaker 4: those spots, because it feels like there are about eight
10:04
Speaker 4: blue chip guys, maybe seven or eight blue chip dudes.
10:06
Speaker 4: There's a number of really good players, and then there's
10:09
Speaker 4: gonna be depending on opportunity and role. And the tough
10:13
Speaker 4: part of it is, and I wonder how it's affected
10:15
Speaker 4: your analysis of it and judgments of man, it's tough
10:19
Speaker 4: understanding and knowing all of these guys and what their
10:22
Speaker 4: intrinsic motivation will be once they get to the NFL
10:25
Speaker 4: because they got money in their pocket. I was hearing
10:27
Speaker 4: Nick Saban talk about it yesterday with Caden Proctor who
10:29
Speaker 4: he had his hands on when he was a freshman
10:31
Speaker 4: at Alabama.
10:32
Speaker 5: He's like not totally a self starter.
10:35
Speaker 4: He's like, when he's in the building, he's gonna be awesome,
10:37
Speaker 4: he's gonna be in shape, he's gonna be working. But
10:41
Speaker 4: when he's off grounds, it's gonna be a little bit different.
10:43
Speaker 4: With these guys having money in their pocket, do you
10:46
Speaker 4: feel like that's affecting the overall caliber of player that's
10:50
Speaker 4: walking into this year's draft.
10:52
Speaker 6: It's created a different kind of player for sure.
10:55
Speaker 7: You know, you don't have as much loyalty and a
10:57
Speaker 7: lot of transfers going on. You have a guy who's
10:59
Speaker 7: chasing the money that maybe didn't have in the past.
11:02
Speaker 7: But I think overall, I mean, football is football. I mean,
11:04
Speaker 7: these guys are really going after if we're being honest,
11:06
Speaker 7: that second contract is where they really make the big money.
11:09
Speaker 6: So you know, I think that the guys that you're
11:10
Speaker 6: looking at at the top of the draft, I mean
11:12
Speaker 6: I think they're high character guys just gonna have a
11:14
Speaker 6: lot money.
11:14
Speaker 7: Might you know, from an immaturity standpoint, that may do
11:17
Speaker 7: some stupid things, but I think overall that they'll they'll
11:20
Speaker 7: be just fine in that case. But as far as
11:23
Speaker 7: a valuation though, I like this draft. I mean, people
11:25
Speaker 7: have labeled a kind of a weak draft, and you're right.
11:27
Speaker 7: It doesn't have the blue chips to it and it
11:29
Speaker 7: doesn't have that star power. But man, the pick is
11:33
Speaker 7: when I do my mock drafts, I'm looking at fifth
11:35
Speaker 7: six round guys and I'm thinking, Wow, these guys could
11:37
Speaker 7: potentially be starters on the Packers. So I'm I'm excited
11:40
Speaker 7: about this draft. I'm glad that the Packers, you know,
11:43
Speaker 7: have that fifty second pick because I feel that they
11:44
Speaker 7: can get like you said, they could get the fourth
11:47
Speaker 7: best corner out of this.
11:49
Speaker 6: Draft or you know, the fifth best receiver, which is great.
11:52
Speaker 4: At that point, it feels like the floor of the
11:54
Speaker 4: player is up a little bit.
11:55
Speaker 5: Does that make sense right? Like, like you you kind
11:57
Speaker 5: of know.
11:58
Speaker 4: What the worst case scenario is going to be, but
12:00
Speaker 4: maybe the Uppers kind of like drafting a corner or
12:03
Speaker 4: a secondary player. When Saban was coaching him, most likely
12:06
Speaker 4: he got the most out of them. But now it
12:08
Speaker 4: does feel like there's a lot of question as to
12:10
Speaker 4: where the potential will end up floating with some of
12:12
Speaker 4: these guys.
12:13
Speaker 7: I mean there's two guys specifically they're talking about third,
12:15
Speaker 7: fourth round. Is you talk about multi year starters at
12:17
Speaker 7: Georgia and Everett, and you're talking about a multi year
12:20
Speaker 7: star at Ohio state national champion and then Davison. So
12:23
Speaker 7: you're looking at two players right there that are potentially
12:26
Speaker 7: going like the third or fourth round, players that are
12:28
Speaker 7: multi year starters as some of the top teams in
12:31
Speaker 7: the country. Most drafts don't have that. By the time
12:34
Speaker 7: you get to the third and fourth round, you kind
12:35
Speaker 7: of taking flyers on. You know, some athletic guys that
12:37
Speaker 7: are accomplished. We're talking about some guys that are very
12:40
Speaker 7: very accomplished at big schools with a lot of history
12:43
Speaker 7: behind them that might go third, fourth, fifth round.
12:45
Speaker 6: And I'm really excited to see what happens.
12:48
Speaker 3: Well, Dobbler said, Georgia guy right, proving Goody, Yeah exactly.
12:53
Speaker 2: But you know, two years on one thing about the
12:56
Speaker 2: instant analysis and the draft grades the day after and
12:58
Speaker 2: all that stuff, you got a way right. But then
13:01
Speaker 2: with Goody though, like sometimes you know, the wine can
13:05
Speaker 2: go bad to use an armin like analogy, and sometimes
13:07
Speaker 2: it gets better. The twenty twenty four draft, you know,
13:10
Speaker 2: going at this time last year, people said, ooh, it
13:12
Speaker 2: wasn't that great.
13:13
Speaker 5: You know Jordan Morgan.
13:14
Speaker 2: Eh, And now Jordan Morgan's going to be anchored at
13:16
Speaker 2: left tackle for a while, right, Billy, And you got
13:18
Speaker 2: Cooper Buller's here, you know, Cooper Bullard and Evan Williams
13:21
Speaker 2: out of that.
13:22
Speaker 3: That's not bad, right.
13:23
Speaker 2: That's four guys are going to start for you, like,
13:26
Speaker 2: you know, pencil him in and like lock them in starters.
13:29
Speaker 3: To me, like, that's not a bad drill.
13:30
Speaker 4: And has another opportunity with whatever ends up happening with
13:33
Speaker 4: Tyron Hopper and like that, that's another spot where they
13:35
Speaker 4: have so many young players and looking at it in
13:38
Speaker 4: camp last year, Drew was like similar tough when they
13:42
Speaker 4: win the Super Bowl in dominating fashion, But like going
13:45
Speaker 4: into the year, you could have probably put especially before
13:48
Speaker 4: the Parsons trade, like Seattle and Green Bay in a
13:51
Speaker 4: very similar group. We think they got a lot of
13:53
Speaker 4: good players. How many of them are going to turn
13:55
Speaker 4: into dominant players? And and that weight here in twenty
13:59
Speaker 4: twenty five, Hopper's finally gonna get a chance, but picking
14:02
Speaker 4: the playoff game would be a nice little way to
14:04
Speaker 4: kick start that. With the amount of opportunity he's gonna
14:06
Speaker 4: have this, and I agree, and that's that's one of
14:08
Speaker 4: those guys like that. So the Packers have feasted on
14:11
Speaker 4: you know, Day two, Day three guys their wheelhouse and
14:14
Speaker 4: Reg's luckily that tucker craft third round pick helped them
14:17
Speaker 4: at least a little bit alleviate the third round curse
14:20
Speaker 4: that had happened, because that did feel real going all
14:23
Speaker 4: the way back to like a Jace Sternberger in there.
14:26
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, one hundred percent, man, I mean that was
14:28
Speaker 7: something that was I mean show Ryan was a third
14:30
Speaker 7: round pick, so I mean, I don't I don't know.
14:31
Speaker 7: He's about as mid as it gets, but he's at
14:33
Speaker 7: least the starter for us, and if he just re
14:35
Speaker 7: signed him to a new contract. But you know, you
14:39
Speaker 7: know a lot of a lot of this stuff is
14:41
Speaker 7: just you know, you just got to throw it up
14:42
Speaker 7: against the wall in Hope. And I'm a big guy
14:44
Speaker 7: that I don't like the grade drafts until year three,
14:47
Speaker 7: so I like to see because different guys are going
14:49
Speaker 7: to develop at different at different rates. There's gonna be
14:51
Speaker 7: some guys like you had mentioned with Saban that are
14:53
Speaker 7: already kind of at their peak when they come in.
14:55
Speaker 6: Haha.
14:56
Speaker 7: Clinton Dix is A great example of that is a
14:58
Speaker 7: guy who peaced in college, so he came in his
15:00
Speaker 7: rookie year. He was an instance starter. He played for
15:02
Speaker 7: a couple of years, but there was no place for
15:04
Speaker 7: him to go. He didn't develop, he didn't get better
15:06
Speaker 7: over the years, and his career is kind of cut
15:09
Speaker 7: short through to that. So I feel like the Packers
15:11
Speaker 7: a lot of times will take these guys with that third.
15:14
Speaker 6: Year in mind.
15:15
Speaker 7: But the other thing I just want to mention real
15:16
Speaker 7: quick is that you don't want to be the youngest
15:19
Speaker 7: team in the league every single year. This is Brian
15:22
Speaker 7: Gudakhan's ninth year as the general manager, and generally speaking,
15:25
Speaker 7: the youngest teams in the league should be guys with
15:28
Speaker 7: the GM that's you know, they're blowing it up. They're doing, like,
15:30
Speaker 7: you know, a whole rebuild on the team. Well, the
15:33
Speaker 7: Packers are in year nine of the Guda Khan's administration
15:38
Speaker 7: and they're still considered one of the youngest teams. So
15:40
Speaker 7: you talk about these starters that they're getting from these drafts,
15:42
Speaker 7: that's a result of poor drafting prior to that, because
15:45
Speaker 7: you're not signing a bunch of guys to new contracts
15:47
Speaker 7: They've only signed up three guys recently to these long
15:51
Speaker 7: term second contracts. They're letting a lot of these guys go.
15:54
Speaker 7: And if you look at like the twenty one draft
15:56
Speaker 7: and even the twenty draft, outside of Jordan Love, you're
15:59
Speaker 7: not seeing guys that are in their fifth, sixth, seventh
16:01
Speaker 7: year right now that are developing.
16:03
Speaker 6: And that's the thing that I.
16:04
Speaker 7: Worry about is you don't want too many rookie starters
16:07
Speaker 7: on a MA sure team. You don't want to be
16:08
Speaker 7: the youngest team every single year.
16:11
Speaker 2: Yeah, But the flip side of that is the pipeline
16:14
Speaker 2: is replenished and you have young players that allow you
16:17
Speaker 2: to let other guys walk when some organizations might overpay
16:23
Speaker 2: and cling to guys that the Packers decide to let well.
16:27
Speaker 4: And it was a it's been a process and a flip.
16:29
Speaker 4: Right in twenty twenty one, they were by far the
16:31
Speaker 4: oldest team in the league. And when in twenty two
16:35
Speaker 4: they change it around with Rogers and the youth at
16:37
Speaker 4: wide receiver, that part of it. Also, I wonder if
16:40
Speaker 4: they do a stack similarly to what they did in
16:42
Speaker 4: that twenty two draft right two wide receivers. Last year
16:45
Speaker 4: it was a double wide receiver stack. It was first
16:47
Speaker 4: and third round with Savion Williams and Matthew Golden. Is
16:50
Speaker 4: that cornerback? Could that be defensive tackle? Like detackle, also
16:54
Speaker 4: feels like one of those spots that's tough reeks. If
16:56
Speaker 4: you don't get them on Day two, it's kind of
16:59
Speaker 4: a crapshoot. It feels like later into the draft as
17:01
Speaker 4: to who you're gonna grab at that spot.
17:03
Speaker 7: Defensive tackle is one of the hardest positions to evaluate
17:05
Speaker 7: because you just don't know because every team has a
17:08
Speaker 7: you know, basically a big fat dude that that sits
17:10
Speaker 7: in the middle. But are those guys going to be
17:12
Speaker 7: able to translate to the NFL? And you know, a
17:15
Speaker 7: lot of it is athletic ability for the defensive tackle,
17:18
Speaker 7: believe it or not, compared to you know, the centers
17:20
Speaker 7: and the guards. They have to be better athletes than
17:22
Speaker 7: those guys so they can maneuver. A cornerback I feel
17:25
Speaker 7: needs to be doubled. Even even Brian Dudekun said the
17:27
Speaker 7: other day is like, I think we need to address
17:29
Speaker 7: that position at the corner position.
17:31
Speaker 6: And it's a very very.
17:33
Speaker 7: Deep draft for corners specifically, So I feel like maybe
17:37
Speaker 7: around three and four, they might do the double up
17:40
Speaker 7: on the corner.
17:41
Speaker 6: That's my prediction.
17:42
Speaker 2: My thing is, is there a metric to you look
17:45
Speaker 2: at the draft and I look at it as a
17:46
Speaker 2: block of players because you mentioned.
17:48
Speaker 5: Sean Ryan's mid right, third round guy.
17:51
Speaker 2: Well, the guy's taken after him were Zach tom and
17:53
Speaker 2: Rashid Walker, who were better than mid sure right. So
17:56
Speaker 2: it's like you look at the block there. They took
17:59
Speaker 2: three offensive line and one might be mad, but two
18:01
Speaker 2: of them were almost elite, right, So what's the metric?
18:05
Speaker 5: Is it Pro Bowls? Then is it game started?
18:09
Speaker 6: I like second I like second contract.
18:11
Speaker 7: That's for me, okay, So I look at it so
18:13
Speaker 7: because Ted Thompson's mo I mean, and I love Ted Thompson,
18:16
Speaker 7: He to me from a talent evaluation standpoint, is way
18:20
Speaker 7: near the top all time as far as finding guys
18:22
Speaker 7: later in the draft. But I look at Okay, if
18:24
Speaker 7: a guy develops your program, he might not start out great,
18:27
Speaker 7: but by the time he gets to that second contract time.
18:30
Speaker 7: The Packers were always into taking care of their own.
18:32
Speaker 7: They signed guys early. They find these guys and they
18:35
Speaker 7: take care of them. And you didn't see a lot
18:36
Speaker 7: of guys in the Ted Thompson era leaving via free
18:39
Speaker 7: agency to other teams. You're seeing a lot more of
18:41
Speaker 7: that right now. So I don't know if that's a
18:43
Speaker 7: result of the Packers just don't evaluate their players the
18:47
Speaker 7: same as other teams, or teams are overpaying for guys
18:50
Speaker 7: like Romeo Dobs. I don't know what the answer is
18:52
Speaker 7: to that question, but I know that in the past
18:54
Speaker 7: the marker was, Hey, if you like a guy, you
18:57
Speaker 7: want to take care of him early. They're frontloading contracts
19:00
Speaker 7: so they wouldn't get into the cap problems and they
19:02
Speaker 7: take care of their own as soon as they possibly could.
19:05
Speaker 7: So that's something that the Packers have kind of gotten
19:06
Speaker 7: the way from for the most part, that I'd like
19:08
Speaker 7: them to get back back into. I mean, I want
19:11
Speaker 7: Christian Watson on the team long term. I want a
19:13
Speaker 7: lot of these guys on the team. I want Jaden Reed,
19:15
Speaker 7: I want took your Craft. I want these guys to
19:17
Speaker 7: kind of develop and be with the team for eight, nine.
19:19
Speaker 6: Ten years.
19:21
Speaker 2: Reigs, thanks for joining us. Appreciate it might hit you
19:23
Speaker 2: up again. Tomorrow you'll be going on adrenaline.
19:26
Speaker 3: Yeah great.
19:26
Speaker 2: We'll get ready for the Packers to pick on Day
19:29
Speaker 2: two of the NFL Draft. Thanks Rigs, Thanks Buddy, Thanks guys,
19:32
Speaker 2: the NFL Draft Riegs. You can follow him and see
19:35
Speaker 2: his uh all of his mocks. What he thinks should happen,
19:37
Speaker 2: what will happen? Uh reeg mocks him up with the
19:40
Speaker 2: best of them.
19:41
Speaker 4: We got a bunch of them. And you start talking
19:43
Speaker 4: about defensive tackle, like, hey, they got a lot of
19:45
Speaker 4: holes there. They got a lot of opportunity there, especially
19:47
Speaker 4: a little opportunity with a little bit of shift in
19:50
Speaker 4: the defense. That's going to be also interesting, more three
19:53
Speaker 4: to four kind of principles instead of the four to
19:56
Speaker 4: three deal that they had been playing. Maybe a little
19:58
Speaker 4: bit different player that they're looking for there. I'm interested
20:01
Speaker 4: to see. This is also we're gonna see Jonathan Gannon.
20:04
Speaker 4: Players get drafted before we hear from Jonathan Gannon, So
20:06
Speaker 4: that is interesting.
20:07
Speaker 3: We're gonna hear from.
20:08
Speaker 2: Scott Dolphin because halftime has arrived. In a huddle and
20:11
Speaker 2: Dolph is gonna tee us up. We go Riegs a

20:18
Speaker 5: You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.

Speaker 2: Twenty Milwaukee ten seventy Madison ihearted radio apps, streaming, live,
20:29

20:37
Speaker 1: I thought you'd like this, Drew. I like that shirt,
20:39

20:41
Speaker 1: paps riverside.
20:42
Speaker 5: It is good.
20:43
Speaker 3: I think I have one of those somewhere.
20:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, they make good merch. I've got a cool paps
20:47
Speaker 1: kind of a retro paps one too.
20:49
Speaker 3: That's pretty cool. Pretty cool.
20:50
Speaker 5: All right?
20:51
Speaker 3: So draft is upon us. You got any draft day? Richeals?
20:53
Speaker 2: What do you got golf league tonight or something to
20:55
Speaker 2: getting together with the guys.
20:56
Speaker 3: What's going on Thursday? That golf league?
20:57
Speaker 1: And then we'll probably go right to the bar after that,
20:59
Speaker 1: get some wings and settle in and settle in And
21:02
Speaker 1: do you really have to be there for the start
21:04
Speaker 1: of the draft? Bat, You know that one's locked in
21:07
Speaker 1: right exactly. But I want to see what it looks like.
21:10
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see how they present Pittsburgh and what
21:12
Speaker 2: they're you know, the backdrop is. And then for me,
21:16
Speaker 2: like I said, I want to see who what Dallas
21:18
Speaker 2: does with the pick they got from the Packers, because
21:19
Speaker 2: that's sure reverberates locally. And then how do the Steelers
21:23
Speaker 2: who comes out for the Steelers pick? Is it Terry Bradshaw?
21:26
Speaker 3: Oh man, is it picked? Your legend? Yeah? Is Frank O'Hara.
21:30
Speaker 5: Still with us? No, sadly not. Otherwise Franco would have
21:34
Speaker 5: been at Lynn Swan, still around Swan.
21:36
Speaker 3: I believe he is.
21:38
Speaker 5: Joe Green still around Joe me, and Joe is still alive.
21:41
Speaker 2: Jack Lambert, I want to say, yeah, so it's got
21:43
Speaker 2: somebody from that era.
21:44
Speaker 1: Maybe I would think so. I mean, there's never as
21:46
Speaker 1: good as they've been with Big Ben. There was never
21:48
Speaker 1: a better era than the Steel Curtain guys.
21:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they I think they might go Ben though,
21:53
Speaker 4: Like I could definitely see them go Roethlisberger, just because
21:57
Speaker 4: of how new and current he would.
22:00
Speaker 2: I said it should be Aaronson by the way, I'm
22:02
Speaker 2: coming back whenever he wants people to cheer, and I think, yeah, hey,
22:07
Speaker 2: it's a lot, But you don't think they would cheer
22:09
Speaker 2: for that.
22:10
Speaker 5: I think the Pittsburgh folks.
22:11
Speaker 4: Are a little a little, a little frustrated with the Yeah,
22:15
Speaker 4: maybe Will Howard walks.
22:16
Speaker 5: Out there and they'll be excited.
22:17
Speaker 3: What about Big Mike grew up in the Steel City.
22:21
Speaker 5: His dad had the bar.
22:22
Speaker 3: He was a bar back, cleaning glasses.
22:25
Speaker 4: I think mister McCarthy, Mike McCarthy's dad walks up there.
22:30
Speaker 7: This.
22:30
Speaker 3: I love it.
22:31
Speaker 4: We watched so important to me. My parents were. He'll
22:35
Speaker 4: put my parents in the front row. That's a great
22:37
Speaker 4: as put before. That's one of your better voices. Billy's
22:40
Speaker 4: a closet. Good good voice guy here, you're Doc Rivers
22:43
Speaker 4: for us.
22:44
Speaker 5: Man. You don't know what you're talking about. The Doc
22:46
Speaker 5: Rivers really isn't that good.
22:48
Speaker 8: I'm sitting there trying to figure it out how draft
22:50
Speaker 8: day I really wanted to run the team.
22:52
Speaker 5: And then they wanted me a coach.
22:53
Speaker 3: I don't know why didn't even have me do this. Alright,
22:55
Speaker 3: let's not messing around to Mike mcgiver and that's all that.
22:58
Speaker 5: Come on, harmon, understand why you'd.
23:01
Speaker 3: Ask me for it?
23:02
Speaker 4: Okay, I don't really know that it fits right here
23:05
Speaker 4: on the huddle on Fox Sports Radio.
23:08
Speaker 2: If you know, you know, the early morning giddiness and
23:12
Speaker 2: lack of sleep, But that is killing me, absolutely killing.
23:15
Speaker 1: That is really good. Do you do that with Mike,
23:19
Speaker 1: go back and forth Mike and Mike.
23:20
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've done it. I've done it a number of times.
23:22
Speaker 9: Now.
23:23
Speaker 4: Mike is the one that clapped. I think he does
23:26
Speaker 4: like the impression, right like. There have been certain folks
23:29
Speaker 4: or are some places on the street what are you
23:32
Speaker 4: talking about, did not like the impression very much.
23:35
Speaker 3: Limitation.
23:36
Speaker 5: There's a lot of people.
23:37
Speaker 4: I just don't understand why the packers traded away there
23:41
Speaker 4: burst round. That was another guy used to work with.
23:43
Speaker 4: He called me into the principal's office. So Mike has
23:46
Speaker 4: had sometimes where he's like, you know, I just don't
23:48
Speaker 4: think you need to be I don't have a lisp.
23:50
Speaker 4: I don't know why you're throwing it in there as
23:53
Speaker 4: pacing and you have a little bit more fun with it.
23:55
Speaker 4: But the better one is I gotta work on my
23:57
Speaker 4: mel kiper for tonight because if anybody wants it. Scott

25:07
Speaker 4: to him just looking out on the empty lambeau Field,
25:10
Speaker 4: just to have him a couple of coffee.
25:12
Speaker 8: I remember when the Packers won the Super Bowl, just
25:16
Speaker 8: like they did in ninety six, and one of my
25:17
Speaker 8: first thoughts was, I can't wait for the Super Bowl
25:20
Speaker 8: NFL Films highlight video to come out.
25:22
Speaker 3: You know that was a big deal. Got in a Blockbuster.
25:25
Speaker 8: They had all the tapes there you could buy them
25:27
Speaker 8: because they were selling them everywhere. And then I remember,
25:29
Speaker 8: fifteen years later we won the Super Bowl. I said,
25:31
Speaker 8: I can't wait for the America's Game episode, you know,
25:33
Speaker 8: to come out, because I knew they were taping him
25:35
Speaker 8: quicker than they had been before. And then this one
25:38
Speaker 8: had come out finally and right away first like minute,
25:41
Speaker 8: I see, that's how they started. Like you're gonna make
25:44
Speaker 8: me start crying right now, Like you know what I mean?
25:46
Speaker 8: That was so emotional, Like I don't know when you're
25:49
Speaker 8: gonna remember you're right in the thrones of the Super
25:52
Speaker 8: Bowl glory, the emotions. I'm not still not thirty years
25:55
Speaker 8: old yet. Sure, just you know, just is that Harry Callous?
25:58
Speaker 8: Is that who was in a Yeah?
26:02
Speaker 3: Did that one?
26:02
Speaker 9: Yeah?
26:03
Speaker 3: Did the great voiceovers?
26:05
Speaker 2: Eric gallis so much different story for Golf League tonight
26:08
Speaker 2: it should be nice night and then right into wings.
26:11
Speaker 3: Right.
26:13
Speaker 1: The problem with Milwaukee County courses right now, it's tough
26:15
Speaker 1: to find a place where carts are available, and in
26:18
Speaker 1: the places they are, those courses are sold out because
26:20
Speaker 1: some courses are still really dealing with a lot of
26:23
Speaker 1: flooding with Curry and Mawatosa places like that.
26:26
Speaker 4: Now Dolph riding is you go to ride. It's not
26:30
Speaker 4: the same even if you have this. But my brother
26:31
Speaker 4: in law was kind of showing off guys like to
26:34
Speaker 4: do this right, you get a new grill, you want
26:36
Speaker 4: everybody to come up and eat off the new grill.
26:38
Speaker 4: I didn't know that I was going to have to
26:40
Speaker 4: potentially go golfing with my brother in law because now
26:42
Speaker 4: he got one of those cool electric uh push cards.
26:46
Speaker 4: So you gotta come see it, like I think. I
26:49
Speaker 4: think I've seen enough. You know, you got to experience
26:52
Speaker 4: time to come see it like you gotta come see
26:54
Speaker 4: You gotta come see it like I do. Like the
26:56
Speaker 4: fact that that could be a show off in a showcase.
27:00
Speaker 4: Where do you stand on the remote push start cards?
27:03
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by them. I see them on the courses
27:05
Speaker 1: all the time and they're out ahead of the player.
27:08
Speaker 1: They're like going by themselves. And I'm assuming it's a remote,
27:12
Speaker 1: you hit stop and it stops. Is that how that
27:13
Speaker 1: works or what it was?
27:14
Speaker 5: The thing?
27:14
Speaker 4: I was told you gotta drive it? Wait, what do
27:17
Speaker 4: you mean so small little remote? Some have a gap
27:20
Speaker 4: that you can maneuver it just through the phone and
27:22
Speaker 4: making me remote. It's a pretty intense business that these
27:26
Speaker 4: cats are doing with these insane like now nearly like
27:29
Speaker 4: five figure push carts business.
27:32
Speaker 1: A segue with the cart in front of it, that's
27:35
Speaker 1: kind of what it is a little bit they probably
27:37
Speaker 1: make those two right. But to see the no driver
27:42
Speaker 1: push carts just going up and down the fairways, it's
27:44
Speaker 1: actually pretty cool. Now, is that what I want to do? No,
27:46
Speaker 1: I don't want to walk walking out. I'm still in
27:48
Speaker 1: the cart with my cigar.
27:50
Speaker 3: It is a little weird to see them go by
27:51
Speaker 3: themselves a little bit, right. It is like you're not.
27:53
Speaker 8: Used to seeing it's on, Like these kids had the
27:55
Speaker 8: power wheels now where you can remote control it.
27:57
Speaker 3: You see those, billy, I'm sure you have. Have you
28:00
Speaker 3: seen that? No, you haven't seen that?
28:01
Speaker 5: Remote control cars?
28:02
Speaker 4: Yeah, so the kid, the kids these days have remote
28:05
Speaker 4: control cars.
28:06
Speaker 8: The parent has the remote so you can put your
28:08
Speaker 8: kid in the in the power wheel and just when
28:09
Speaker 8: they're not you don't feel truck, you drive them around.
28:12
Speaker 8: I saw a kidding the dump truck, a little mini
28:14
Speaker 8: remote control power wheels dump truck. It's the same idea
28:17
Speaker 8: kind of freaks me out. I'm like, is this is
28:20
Speaker 8: this twenty month old steering this bad boy?
28:22
Speaker 4: That's the that's the Silverado that I'm still being tasked
28:24
Speaker 4: with being able to put together for the one year old,
28:27
Speaker 4: even though you know it says ages three to six.
28:30
Speaker 5: No, it doesn't matter.
28:30
Speaker 3: Those ages don't matter, right.
28:32
Speaker 5: Will say it goes well, he'll grow into it.
28:33
Speaker 3: He'll grow into it.
28:34
Speaker 8: Right.
28:34
Speaker 1: Technology is just going on a thousand miles. And I
28:36
Speaker 1: remember the time around Easter time, the trains in the
28:39
Speaker 1: malls would just be on a little going over some track.
28:41
Speaker 1: Now they're going, you know, past the Hot Andy AND's,
28:44
Speaker 1: and they're going past Spencer's and they're going all over
28:47
Speaker 1: the mall.
28:47
Speaker 4: Now you haven't stop to get a little bite of
28:49
Speaker 4: the bourbon chicken.
28:50
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, we got three singles, please engineer jumping
28:55
Speaker 1: off out at which one of the five places you
28:57
Speaker 1: go to get the bourbon chickens.
28:59
Speaker 3: The whole islands.
29:00
Speaker 8: But they haven't been giving out free samples. And I
29:02
Speaker 8: go to get my food court like they I go
29:06
Speaker 8: mall walking, so I do. Actually they don't, And trust me,
29:09
Speaker 8: I used to look for free samples.
29:10
Speaker 3: Brookfield Square has no food Court anymore. That's all that said.
29:15
Speaker 8: Food court is the one thing going at Southwards that
29:18
Speaker 8: people go to, and there's a Rocky Rocco there as well.
29:21
Speaker 3: And it's not They still have the dicks, right yeah, Paul, Yeah, yeah,
29:25
Speaker 3: big dicks.
29:26
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, they do. They have big they got they
29:27
Speaker 5: got they got a big.
29:28
Speaker 4: Dicks and they also have a TJ Max, which I'm
29:31
Speaker 4: a big fan.
29:32
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
29:33
Speaker 4: But it's tough when you know the celebration, the event
29:37
Speaker 4: for a youth.
29:39
Speaker 5: At one point, I'm saying youth, yeah.
29:40
Speaker 4: Would be uh, Friday after school, We're going to the
29:44
Speaker 4: food court and going be able to get whatever you want. Now,
29:46
Speaker 4: I feel like that food court is Costco. Yeah, dinner
29:50
Speaker 4: at Costco, you kid meet dollar fifty hot dogs.
29:53
Speaker 5: They said, big old pizza, and the.
29:54
Speaker 1: CEO said they will never waiver from that dollar fifty
29:57
Speaker 1: hot dog, right despite the fact inflation is has been
30:00
Speaker 1: They're gonna stick with the buck fifty hot dog, even
30:02
Speaker 1: if it's at a loss. I love that there's some
30:03
Speaker 1: things that are still consistent in this world.
30:05
Speaker 3: Oh we'll see.
30:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Dolph is getting to experience what life is
30:08
Speaker 2: like paying for that Packers fans tonight.
30:11
Speaker 3: Because you're picking twenty fifth. That's generally where the Packers are.
30:15
Speaker 8: Rare occurrents a Bears fans actually having a decent team.
30:18
Speaker 1: Well, and not to mention more years than not, it
30:19
Speaker 1: seemed like the Bears had traded their first round pickaway
30:22
Speaker 1: over the last twenty years. I remember one time they
30:24
Speaker 1: traded I think two for Rick Freakin Meyer.
30:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a wild one.
30:29
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean and Justin couldn't feel everyone was left.
30:33
Speaker 3: Yeah. Didn't they trade a first rounded for Justin Fields?
30:35
Speaker 3: I'm not I think they might have.
30:36
Speaker 4: I don't know, but did they did trade a first
30:39
Speaker 4: rounder to go up into the draft to get Fields?
30:42
Speaker 3: That was too so.
30:43
Speaker 1: So it's it's nice to actually have a first round
30:45
Speaker 1: because a Bears fan, even though it's at twenty five,
30:47
Speaker 1: and then they have two number twos tonight because of
30:49
Speaker 1: the DJ DJ more trade.
30:51
Speaker 3: Is there a is there a position that you gotta have?
30:54
Speaker 2: It is like because it seems like, you know, they
30:57
Speaker 2: want to bolster the offensive line because it's they do.
31:00
Speaker 1: That's that's one of them. They gotta have another rush
31:02
Speaker 1: pass pass rusher. I think they were a seventh last
31:04
Speaker 1: in the league in sacks last year, so that's I
31:07
Speaker 1: think that's going to be their number one. Number one,
31:09
Speaker 1: go get an edge rusher and then probably an offensive
31:12
Speaker 1: lineman after that.
31:13
Speaker 4: Well, and I know Packer Sanson like because of the
31:15
Speaker 4: hit that he had on on on Jordan Love, But
31:17
Speaker 4: I really like the Booker kid, right, Dick. He's a
31:19
Speaker 4: really really talented guy, and they got some nice pieces there.
31:22
Speaker 4: But you're right that that seemingly is everybody that's mocking
31:26
Speaker 4: Uh in that twenty five range.
31:27
Speaker 5: They're either moving back a couple.
31:29
Speaker 4: And grabbing a couple more assets, or they're grabbing an edge,
31:32
Speaker 4: because if you're going to get an edge, you better
31:33
Speaker 4: get it early.
31:34
Speaker 1: Get from Missouri, I guess is high on their board. Uh,
31:37
Speaker 1: you know other net. I mean, I'm trying to think
31:39
Speaker 1: of what what what the Bears would go after. I mean,
31:42
Speaker 1: they addressed that they lost both safeties, but they went
31:44
Speaker 1: out and got two free agent safeties, so they're good.
31:47
Speaker 4: Something is at least in Poll's last couple of years.
31:50
Speaker 4: You haven't been really able to figure it out. Last year,
31:52
Speaker 4: you would not have thought their first pick was going
31:54
Speaker 4: to be a tight end when they just signed Cole Kmett.
31:56
Speaker 4: Great point and they go and grab him a burden
31:58
Speaker 4: in the second round. THO, pretty good, just grabbed a
32:01
Speaker 4: first round wide receiver a year ago they got Dj Moore.
32:03
Speaker 4: Actually are going to bring in Luther Burton and bolster
32:06
Speaker 4: up this offense.
32:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point too. I mean, I don't
32:09
Speaker 1: know where else you'd go tonight.
32:11
Speaker 3: You don't. You don't really don't need any running backs
32:13
Speaker 3: to wide receivers or tight ends.
32:15
Speaker 5: It's like, who do you like?
32:17
Speaker 2: It's almost like true to your board, right if it
32:19
Speaker 2: will take a tackle, if our preferred tackle is there,
32:22
Speaker 2: will take an edge if our you know, if the guy,
32:25
Speaker 2: if we think that that guy's better, if the edge
32:26
Speaker 2: of who's the kid out of and a late round
32:30
Speaker 2: they're talking about him being a late first round how yeah,
32:34
Speaker 2: cashes howl if we have him rated higher than the
32:37
Speaker 2: tackles than any of the tackles. And then it's like
32:40
Speaker 2: a true to the board thing, like we need both spots,
32:42
Speaker 2: so let's take the best guy we can at this spot.
32:44
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, your best players available at a position of need. Yes, yes,
32:49
Speaker 4: that ends up being the case more times than not.
32:52
Speaker 1: Is there any scenario where you see them trading into
32:54
Speaker 1: the first round tonight?
32:55
Speaker 3: I who would it be zero, nobody.
32:58
Speaker 4: Zero they would. I think they be going after one
33:00
Speaker 4: of the one of the corners, right like. I think
33:03
Speaker 4: maybe they fell in love with with Johnson, but he's
33:05
Speaker 4: just flew so far up everybody forward. They just have
33:08
Speaker 4: too many holes, especially I mean, Goody didn't say it.
33:11
Speaker 4: Goody said up.
33:12
Speaker 3: I feel pretty confident with our depth right now.
33:14
Speaker 4: He did say, though your depth on the roster and
33:16
Speaker 4: say I have more questions turn.
33:18
Speaker 3: Fifty into more picks. I think. I think the better
33:22
Speaker 3: chances they trade.
33:23
Speaker 1: That did say that they are capable of moving into
33:25
Speaker 1: the first round. They have the pieces if they needed
33:28
Speaker 1: to do everybody's caping.
33:29
Speaker 8: I know, yeah, but I just don't see it. I
33:31
Speaker 8: can be cool if that happen, though, we get some
33:33
Speaker 8: excitement tonight, you know.
33:34
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, and no. Not every team's capable of it,
33:36
Speaker 4: right not. Not a lot of teams have all of
33:38
Speaker 4: their full compliments of it to be able to go
33:40
Speaker 4: up into the first A lot of times you're gonna
33:41
Speaker 4: have to give up a first right, so to be
33:43
Speaker 4: able to deal your twenty eight first round pick would
33:46
Speaker 4: be a tough one to be able to move through.
33:49
Speaker 5: I do, though, see them being more.
33:51
Speaker 4: Aggressive in the trade market post draft, because that's when
33:54
Speaker 4: all of the potential picks into the fourth round next
33:57
Speaker 4: year will be tradeable later into the year, when all
33:59
Speaker 4: those compents Tory picks become available. Then I could see
34:02
Speaker 4: you see some some movement, but not necessarily tonight in
34:05
Speaker 4: the upward variety.
34:07
Speaker 1: I love the fact that Packers are gonna have an
34:08
Speaker 1: Irish flair to their draft. Did you see this this year?
34:10
Speaker 1: They're kind of that, Yes, what they're gonna have that
34:13
Speaker 1: they're international fan of the Year gets to be on
34:16
Speaker 1: stage with one of the picks, and then they're doing
34:18
Speaker 1: another pick from Dublin where they're gonna have a song
34:20
Speaker 1: as well.
34:21
Speaker 3: That's gonna be pretty cool.
34:22
Speaker 8: It's a new it's a new thing. I mean, we
34:24
Speaker 8: had the German pick last year. It was pretty awesome.
34:26
Speaker 8: I think I think the international piece is one that
34:30
Speaker 8: the NFL is going to keep leaning into.
34:32
Speaker 3: As much as possible, whether people like it or not.
34:34
Speaker 4: You know, I gotta say, though, I don't know how
34:36
Speaker 4: a harp rendition of go pack os. I mean it's
34:42
Speaker 4: not gonna do you know, all of the out of
34:44
Speaker 4: all of the instruments, I don't know that harp was
34:47
Speaker 4: on the top twenty.
34:49
Speaker 2: Five, and how what's the time difference if they're seven
34:52
Speaker 2: hours ahead of us there or something.
34:54
Speaker 3: That's a really good point. Oh man, really good point.
34:56
Speaker 3: Early morning.
34:57
Speaker 8: I guess right, you know what, You're right, Billy harp
35:00
Speaker 8: is not the first thing I think of, but if
35:01
Speaker 8: you just think of chimes and maybe it'll work out.
35:04
Speaker 6: Well.
35:04
Speaker 5: Luckily, it's also.
35:05
Speaker 4: Gonna be a day three pick right, so like it's
35:06
Speaker 4: not gonna be tomorrow, so they're gonna build it in
35:10
Speaker 4: probably eleven hours, still gonna be in the middle of
35:13
Speaker 4: so at that hour, so you're still sitting seven o'clock
35:15
Speaker 4: in night where people are gonna be having themselves a
35:17
Speaker 4: grand all time.
35:17
Speaker 1: That would make more sense if you're in Dublin, in
35:20
Speaker 1: the in the party district down there, that that'd be
35:22
Speaker 1: a perfect time to do it.
35:23
Speaker 5: I just yeah, I appreciate it. I'm excited.
35:25
Speaker 4: I love Daniel Whalen just as much as the next
35:27
Speaker 4: great young lad. Like don't we have other I would
35:31
Speaker 4: have thought we're playing something with the potatoes more than
35:33
Speaker 4: we're playing a harp.
35:34
Speaker 5: But I'm interested. I'm excited to hear it.
35:36
Speaker 3: Maybe it's like a jazz harp or something.
35:38
Speaker 2: Maybe you know pop Harp Classic. You never know, ye
35:44
Speaker 2: guys for popping in. We appreciate it. Enjoy golf tonight
35:46

Speaker 3: I hope we get on the course.
35:55
Speaker 1: I hope the water is side succeeded, enough's whatever.
35:58
Speaker 2: It's and then the consolation is it is like we'll
36:00
Speaker 2: start wings and beer earlier.
36:02
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, no doubt. Probably at six it's a
36:04
Speaker 3: win win.
36:05
Speaker 4: I think our friend and uh Mike went said, if
36:08
Speaker 4: we're gonna draft radio personalities, who would it be. Would

Speaker 2: the voice the Packers.
37:12
Speaker 4: Now, Hunter adjusting and does he know that he's adjusting?

37:17
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so you should.
37:18
Speaker 3: I'll make sure context all those things.
37:21
Speaker 4: But he, more than anything, he's ready because he's still
37:25
Speaker 4: so juiced up for today, knowing that the Brewers is
37:27
Speaker 4: gonna be facing off against the cy Young Word.
37:29
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about that who's hot? Who's not brought
37:31
Speaker 2: to us by Jonavan Jorgensy know who's hot? Well, that
37:33
Speaker 2: kid that the White Sox signed from Japan. Oh my god,
37:37
Speaker 2: we're a coami he's unreal. In five straight games, ten
37:42
Speaker 2: homers in the first month of the season. Dude, he
37:44
Speaker 2: git three at American Family Field and uh, I mean
37:48
Speaker 2: there were no cheapies. The one barely got out, but
37:51
Speaker 2: you could hear it off the bat, like, whoa, that
37:54
Speaker 2: sounds a little different. And they got him for a
37:56
Speaker 2: decent haul, right, like it's a five year deal. Nothing
38:00
Speaker 2: crazy if I don't if I'm not mistaken on the
38:02
Speaker 2: money side of it, Like anybody could have been up
38:05
Speaker 2: for his services, but it seemed like there were some
38:07
Speaker 2: people that didn't necessarily know if the bat was gonna
38:09
Speaker 2: translate as well as he played in Japan, I remember
38:14
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago he just tore up that
38:17
Speaker 2: WBC when they ended up winning. But I think he
38:19
Speaker 2: was like a nineteen or twenty year old kid at
38:20
Speaker 2: that time. All Right, So who's hot and who's not?
38:22
Speaker 2: We could say Cubs are hot, they've won eight in
38:24
Speaker 2: a row, but they've been feasting on the Phillies, who
38:26
Speaker 2: are not hot. And the Phillies have an eight game
38:29
Speaker 2: losing streak and are now the losing his team in
38:31
Speaker 2: baseball because the Mets got a double last night.
38:34
Speaker 5: Yeah, Luke Weaver finished it off. Who was not hot
38:37
Speaker 5: last night?
38:37
Speaker 4: It was me as I ended up watching trying to
38:39
Speaker 4: watch it, and then fell asleep with the phone in
38:42
Speaker 4: my hand. With two outs left, I had three more
38:46
Speaker 4: pitches to make Drew three more pitches, That's all I
38:48
Speaker 4: needed to see close.
38:49
Speaker 2: But the Mets got a met. They snapped their twelve
38:51
Speaker 2: game losing streak. They welcome back Juan Soto and then
38:53
Speaker 2: Lindor gets hurt. Mets got a met but not brought
39:00
Speaker 2: to us by Donovan Jorgensen Heating and Cooling. Check them
39:03
Speaker 2: out for all you need to employee you owned for
39:05
Speaker 2: the past forty years and the presenting sponsor of Who's
39:08
Speaker 2: Hot Who's not?
39:09
Speaker 3: There's always lots of candidates.
39:11
Speaker 5: Yeah, who's not?
39:12
Speaker 4: And most importantly it's gon't get hot. So you're gonna
39:15
Speaker 4: have to make sure that you call Donovan Jorganson not
39:17
Speaker 4: to be able to get that lined up for it.
39:19
Speaker 4: Also in the hot variety, Drew last night would have
39:21
Speaker 4: been there. Detroit Pistons well in the third quarter. Game
39:24
Speaker 4: was at forty six all going into halftime. They started
39:27
Speaker 4: the half on an eleven zero run that then turned
39:30
Speaker 4: into a thirty eight to sixteen throttily of the magic
39:35
Speaker 4: in the third quarter and running away in flexing that
39:38
Speaker 4: one play fussle.
39:39
Speaker 2: Their second half of that defense was stifling. And if
39:42
