Football at Four: Taking a Look at Eagles Plans For The Draft 24 Hours Away · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: The NFL Draft begins tomorrow night. You can listen to
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: the draft on ninety seven to three ESPN and of
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: course Jeff Mooscher here for Football at four. A lot
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: of draft conversation as we get ready for tomorrow or night,
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: we finally will know what Philadelphia might do. But Jeff Mocher,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: will they be busy on draft night? Do you anticipate
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Howie Roseman twenty three or do we think that there
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: will be a trade for an edge rusher and maybe
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: even an AJ Brown trade.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know about an AJ Brown trade, you know,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: unless somebody knocks their socks off because of the whole
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: June first thing.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: We'll see.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: I do think at some point by the end of
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: day three there is a good chance that there will
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: be an Eagles trade, probably for a player that can
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: either fill an edge or a safety role. And I
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: think that there's a more than good chance that Howie
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: will be very actively dealing.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: All throughout the draft.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: And there's even a chance that Tannor McKee gets dealt
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: during the draft. So a lot of things that will
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: probably happen.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: What do you think about it right now? The leverage
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: for Philadelphia with a J. Brown do they do they
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: kind of hold the keys here? How do you look
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: at that situation going into tomorrow night? Is it?
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's changed or the situation is
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: any different than you know, the five hundred times we've we've.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: Talked about it.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, ye, now Tomorrow's Draft night. Does Philadelphia
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: have leverage in this situation? Or they kind of flap
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: it in the wind?
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Now, I don't know.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know that they're looking for for, you know,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure they would love for a team
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: to knock their socks off and give them something that
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: maybe they think they'll get more of than say, New
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: England would give. But you know, if they've got something
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: on to the table with New England for after June first,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: then they've got it.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I guess in that case that gives them leverage
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: it because they have adult.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: I guess I would ask it this way.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Then if Philadelphia ends the night and they have aj Brown,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: which is anticipated right because of the But if they
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: get a deal that really, as you say, knocks their
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: socks off, are they willing to take the bigger dead
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: cap money hit.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I think that they would if they got a better
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: deal yeah, I think the cap hit has only been
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: a part of the issue. I think it how he
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: is showing that he will make a move that takes
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: on a big cap hit if he's all right with
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: the return of the trade.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: The Carson Wentz one was an example.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: At the time, he was the biggest cap hit I
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: believe dead cap hit in NFL history.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: But he got a I live the other two that
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: was going to become one. He got a first round
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: pick out of it.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, that deal. They did get a first round
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: pick in the Carson Wentz steel you know. But in
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: this situation, right, you know, it's one of those things
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: where you're kind of like, if let's say the Rams say,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: you know what, We're going to give you a call back,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and this is what we're willing to give you. If
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: you take the dead cap hit, we'll give you more
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: today to behoove the Eagles to actually move him tomorrow
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: because you and I have talked a lot about are
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you a better team if you trade aj Brown for
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: future first round picks?
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: Is this team better? And we're like, maybe not.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: But if they give you picks in the draft tomorrow
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: night and you take the dead cap hit.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Are you willing to do that?
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think it only behooves them to do that,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: to use your word, if if there are really excited
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: about what they're getting in return, you know what I'm saying,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: if it gives them an opportunity to get more than
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: they would have gotten had they waited.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Right, and we don't know that that's on the table,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: we think that it's still the Patriots. It sounds like
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: according to Adam Schefter, it will be the Patriots. And
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: could the Patriots make their big play tomorrow and say, hey,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: you know what, we'll give you more tonight than we
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: will on June first.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I think that is still why Why would the Patriots
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: do that? I mean, unless they felt they needed to
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: get him in before.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Unless they felt that somebody else was called tomorrow night.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure though that perception will be created as
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: best as how he can.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: They don't have anybody to report anything differently at this point,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: it seems like, so we'll see. Obviously that will be
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: something on the table. Did Jonathan Grenard stuff possibly an
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: edge rusher pick fifty four and Jonathan Gernard before Jonathan Gernard,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: would Eagles fans be happy with that move. Is that's
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: something that they should be exploring.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I would think that they'd be pretty happy with that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's certainly a really good pass rusher, starting
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: caliber pass rusher. Is he as good I'm a pass
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: rusher as Jill and Phillips? I don't know about that,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: but he's pretty darn good. He's had some very good years.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: He'd be on his third team.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, back to back twelve and a half SAX seasons.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean with the Texans, right, so.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Which is more than which is more than Phillips has?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: You know, you can make a case that he might
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: be a better pass rusher, not as good as a
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: run stuffer.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's yes, you can make a bit he's got
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: He's got more speed around the edges for sure.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I mean he's he's a good player.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: I don't think he's been as consistent throughout his career
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: as as Phillips, but he's been pretty darn good. Both
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: have had injury problems, yes, yeah, yeah, more so more
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: so Phillips than him. But yeah, I think Grenard's a
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: good player and worth the second round pick. And uh,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I think especially with the two three round pick, two
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: third round picks the Eagles have with some maneuverability there, sure, all.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Right, Jeff Boscher Inside the Birds podcast tomorrow night, the
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: night you guys did your annual mock draft. Over at
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Inside the Birds dot com, you can check out every
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: pick that they made. And Andrew to Checko made the
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: pick for the Eagles at pick number twenty three, Max
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: iron Acker from Arizona State, the offensive lineman, to which
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: you said, really no debate here. There's not a lot
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of talk about no discussion, is what Adams said as well.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: You know, most people look at offensive line as the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: spot that the Philadelphia Eagles definitively need. But I do
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: find it gonna be interesting if a wide receiver's on
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: the board at that spot, or maybe even Sadik. Do
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: you take the skill player or do you feel better
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: with an offensive lineman?
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: You take the highest rated player on your board, you know,
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: And so you know, I can't tell you who that
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: would be because I don't know who's gonna be there.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: But I suspect just how I think the board will fall,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: that an offensive lineman, be at Blake Miller or Ian
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Akor or Caden Proctor or Monroe Freeling will be there
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: I also suspect because of because there's this is a
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: high upside offensive tackle class, but yet still one that
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: needs some development. And there's really so like Malinoa from
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Miami will probably go off the first and then there's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: gonna be like teams that need offensive tackle right and
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I think they'll be looking to move up. And I
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: don't think that they want all these offensive tackles to
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: go eighteen to twenty five.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: I think teams know.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: That they're gonna go get swallowed up quickly, so they're
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: gonna have to jump up in that fifteen to twenty
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: range to get them.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: So it'll be interesting to see if the Eagles.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Feel like they're going to need to jump up a
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: few spots to get a guy that they might really like.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I think Sadiq you guys have going Andrew put him
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: at number nineteen to the Carolina Panthers. If he's still
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: on the board at nineteen, does Hollie Roseman get active?
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: There is that a player you would trade up for?
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: I would if you let me.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Let me let me throw this into the mix too,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: if you know you're trading aj Brown, does Sidiq become
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a player that you kind of target because you're looking
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: for another weapon in the offense. Maybe that's not necessarily
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the same, you know, outside receiver, but another big, physical
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: type of pass catcher.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: I mean it would surprise me, Mike, And that's no
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: knock on Sadik.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: I think he's worth that kind of pick.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: He might be one of the top three or four
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: cleanest prospects in the entire draft, if you're just talking
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: taking out positional value out of it. I know that
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: the Eagle surprise is last year myself included taking an
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: off ball linebacker. But you started to see that they've
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: changed their defense over the last five to six to
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: seven years. You know, they play a three to four front,
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: a five to two front now, So they'll they'll draft
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: a nose tackle like Jordan Davis, and they'll obviously get
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: back to drafting corner and they'll draft an off ball
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: linebacker because that's important. I don't know that they're ready
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: to say that a tight end is a position that
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: they're willing to trade up in the first round for now.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying, you know, if he's there at twenty three, magically,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: then you really have to consider it. But I don't
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: know if the Eagles are the team that's going to
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: give up extra draft stock to move up to get him.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: I know that the wide receiver class interested to see,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm looking through your mock. I don't know
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: that I see Denzel Boston going in this first round,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: which I think would probably be interesting if he was
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: there at twenty three, Boston, would he be a guy
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that they would consider, because obviously they probably think they're
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: going to need a wide receiver, and you have a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: lot of receivers going ahead of that. But after Philadelphia
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: picks at number twenty three, Now that doesn't necessarily mean
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: that you don't think that just because you did make
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: all the picks. I don't see oh Omar Cooper going
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: at twenty seven and Casey Concepcion going at thirty, but
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: no Boston in this pick. I would think if Boston
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: was on the board at twenty three, he would be
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: a very intriguing guy to think about.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, just so you know, like I pay
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: very very little attention to all the streams and streams
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: of mock drafts out there, so I don't know what's
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: in people's heads about where certain guys should go.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: But among the people I spoke to. You know.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: I did it on Philly Voice the other day, kind
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: of a scouts take sizing up the draft, talk to
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: a bunch of people in personnel around the league on
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: what they feel. And when I was talking wide receiver
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: with a lot of folks, the names that came up
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: most of guys that they liked, in in order were
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: obviously Tyson and Tate, Conception, Cooper Junior.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Am I missing anybody in there? And I didn't.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I didn't get the Denzel Boston name as a first
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: rounder or a top thirty five forty guys, you know.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: So I'm not saying he won't, he can't.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's all beauty in the eye of the beholder,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: but he is not someone that the people I spoke
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: with really viewed as a first round kind of guy.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Right and listen, everybody, As you mentioned beauty in the
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: eye of beholder. I know he's a guy that Josh
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: is a big fan of Boston. We've seen him go
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: in mock drafts right around there. I just would be
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: interested to see if Philadelphia would be intrigued to take
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver, and obviously if they took.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Others David Boston, I believe by the way, former NFL
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: or receiver for the Cardinals.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, And I would imagine if they took a
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: wide receiver at pick twenty three, the speculation would probably
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: be over that AJ would be gone, correct.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: I would imagine I think they will take anything in
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: the top fifty. It will probably be over, but go ahead, Yeah.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, and then you have you know, in that
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: second round fifty four. You're right, they do have a
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: pick at fifty four, and then they have two picks
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: in the third round which they could.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Get some stuff accomplishing.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Adam yesterday gave us a lot of things that he
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: would like to see accomplished in this draft. Do you
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: have a blueprint that you would like to see accomplished
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: for this team?
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: They obviously need I mean, this goes without saying. I
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: mean that they need to address the offense and the
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: offensive line. You know, they need a successor for Lane Johnson.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I really do believe that they need a tight end
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: of the future. They need they need a pro ready
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: interior offensive lineman who can play guard because their guard
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: situation is shaky right now.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: I have them.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: I would not be surprised at all of round two
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: if they even double dip went ot and then og
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: in round two.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: I did an Eagles only mock draft.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: On Philly Voice today and had them trading Tanner McKee
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: to the Jets to pick up an extra second round
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: pick and then using that.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Oh so getting this, I was gonna say, what you
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: get in return? What do you get in return for
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Tanner McKee?
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: I picked Rutledge out of Georgia Tech.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Really good athletic, almost built like a tackle, but definitely
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: a guard type guy out of Georgia Tech who can
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: step in right away if need be. So that's what
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I just think that they absolutely need to accomplish that
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: on offense and on defense, you know, or just overall
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: you got to I think that they have to make
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: some trades to come out of this draft with either
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: a starting caliber edge or safety.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: If you don't, then now it's down to your trade
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: market or your late May June free agent market. I
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: don't know how how bountiful that's going to be.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: No, And one of the things you know you're talking about,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: if you trade Tanner McKee on a draft night, do
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: you look at drafting a quarterback? Is that something that's
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: on the agenda list. Then even if they don't, do
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: you think a quarterback is in play?
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: Well, glad you asked. In my mock draft on Philly Voice.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: After they trade McKee, I have them packaging a fourth
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: and a fifth to move up for the first pick
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: in the fourth round.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Now think about that.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: That's an interesting pick, right, And this is where the
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Eagles many years ago traded up and got Matt Barkley.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Because as how we would say, you know, you kind
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: of you're done with day one and day two.
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: You take a long time, you process it.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: You look at the board and you'll see a lot
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: of moves made to the top of the fourth round
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: because you've got those teams kind of mentally resetting and
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: figuring out how the board falls. So I had them
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: trading up with the Titans top of the fourth round
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: to take Garrett Nussmyer.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I was gonna just say, if they take Nussmyer, that
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: will start a lot of discussion because nus Meyer is
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: one of them guys that had like first you know,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: he can back to LSU. If he would have left
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: last year, he might have been a first round pick.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Might have Yeah, I mean he's six foot one, So
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: I think that that lack of ideal height for a quarterback.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Might always have questioned how how high a ceiling as
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: a draft pick would go, but there's no question that
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: two years ago he drove the ball with authority. He
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: was a gun slinger, a little bit reckless sometimes but
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: just confident, made every throw look great. And then last
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: year he dealt with an abdominal injury that completely altered
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: his mechanics and how he played the game.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: And he's been very open about that.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: He just couldn't make the kind of throws because of
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: this ab injury that he was normally make, and he
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: didn't have a good year. And because of that, he's
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: now looking at a day late, day two or day
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: to three kind of pick who knows where he's gonna go.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: And it would be a great value right then, to
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: get that kind of guy at the top of the
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: fourth round.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Well, that would certainly stir a lot of conversation, right,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I mean the whole.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I think any quarter I think, to be honest with you,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: if they take a quarterback anywhere, yeah, oh I agree,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: round or higher, it's gonna stir a conversation.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: What do you make of Jalen Hurts posting pictures of
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: him working out with the fired former quarterback coach Scott Loeffler.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Is that a message like, hey, you try to get
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: your messages out, here's my message.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: You shouldn't have fired my guy.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: I didn't see that, but I don't make anything of it,
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: not to make anything of anybody's social.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: Media, I agree.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I'm usually not that like I don't like to watch
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: the podcast and listen to all that stuff. But it's like,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: it is kind of interesting that he's like going out
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: of his way to post pictures of him working with
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: the quarterback coach that got fired.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Like, yes, that certainly is interest, especially since he's not
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: a guy who, to my knowledge, is real active on
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: social media.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: That's what I said.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: I don't ever take I have never really noticed it.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Whether he's posted like they're at OTAs, I guess is
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: that yeah, yeah.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: It started the what do you call it, the phase
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: one of the off season program at start.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so like leading up to that, I guess he's
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: posting pictures and he's working with Scott Loffler, the the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: you know fire, he's not here anymore, he doesn't have
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: a job, so you know, I found that to be
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: kind of interesting, Like, oh yeah, what's the messaging here.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not happy with what happened or you guys have
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: given me so many different coaches. I need to go
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: with somebody that I feel comfortable with.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: Right, it's a weird, you know, I'm not going to
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: instantly react without at least looking into something.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: All right, Well, I'll tell you what.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: All right, let me I know you didn't make the
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: pick in the Inside the Birds mock draft for the Eagles.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Andrew Dechecko made that pick. What is your official on
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: record selection?
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you know, we did a little differently this year.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: We did have Andrew kind of make the pick, but
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: like we were more committee this year than as you
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: than usual, and you know, you know it came down
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: to I think Caden Proctor and Max heiniak Or and.
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: Your going offensive lot.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: You think, yeah, we were going offensive line.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: We're thinking that Proctor has really played the left tackle
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: all throughout his career.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: The he does not. I don't think he has right
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: tackle experience.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: I Anchor is a right tackle, and he Anchor is
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: a guy who three years from now could be the
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: cream of the crowd. I mean his athleticism, Mike is
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: so so good and he has a year to sit
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: behind Lane Johnson. You know, the Eagles do always think
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: two to three to four years down the road. Proctor
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: has struggled with his conditioning a little bit, so I mean, honestly,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: it's a coin flavor.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Could have gone either way.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: We were about to take Procter like and then all
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: of a sudden we all huddled and thought about it
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: like you could hear it on the pod as we
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: of course, and decide to go with the guy who's
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: even more of a freakish athlete.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: I love.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was fun, good stuff, all right, Jeff Bocher,

  Speaker 1: in a second round pick for Max Crosby in a
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: third that was that that's not happening.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's definitely not I think the Eagles are. No,
