4-20 H2: Seahawks Draft Strategy at RB, Reading Your Texts & Cross Talk · The Gregg Bell Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: John Schneider talks often, the general manager for the Seahawks,
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: about don't draft for need, and his drafts that he
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: believes have been subpar have been when he has pushed
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: need over best player.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: He will tell you that.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: The Seahawks and he are at their best drafting when
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: he takes the best player on their draft board. When
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: it's time for the Seahawks to pick, not, hey, we
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: really could use it running back as Kenneth Walker left,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: who's the best running back we have left available? And
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: then you end up getting some guy who might be
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: ranked a round or two below where you're actually picking
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: just because of need. And he said he has done
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: that in previous drafts and has failed, and that's part
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: of the reason the Seahawks won eleven years between Super
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Bowl appearances post legs in a boom.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: You can think of a couple people.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Maleigue McDow comes to mind of someone that they took
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: as a need pick over what they thought was the
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: better player. They also are really strongly considering intangibles and
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: personalities and culture. They want a guy that they're going
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: to draft to fit the culture that these guys. I
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: mentioned Brandon Ceci, what to me makes him a Seahawk
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: and a likely second round pick for Seattle if he
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: can if he's still available, then is his culture his makeup?
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: His football acuum In the fact that he knows every
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: one of the eleven defensive spots his positioning coach at
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: South Carolina says, and he can recite what eleven responsibilities
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: on defense on every play. That sounds like a culture,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Mike McDonald out of me, not to mention he plays
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a hell of an outside corner and runs, supports and
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: tackles as well. I think Brandon cec is going to
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: be a second round pick for the Seahawks. My mock
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: baft the Seahawks is at the News Tribune dot com. Okay,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: so what about running back? Well, I spent most of
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: this month, Chris thinking that Jaderian Price was going to
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: be a Seahawk, the second best running back most scouts
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: say in this draft, behind his teammate Jeremiah Love Why
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Well running backs and obviously, like we said, but John
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Schneider usually waits till the latter half of his drafts
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: to pick his running backs. Damian Martinez last year from Miami,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: who didn't working out at all and is no longer
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: in the team. Chris Carson is the most glaring example
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: that a seventh round pick out of Oklahoma State who
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: became their starter in bellcal until he had a neck
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: issue to forced the amount of football that Chris Carson
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: is a tell. It's that is by and large not
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: only the Seahawks but the NFL's philosophy on running backs
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: right now. Draft them, use them while they're young and
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: not hurt, and have them relatively inexpensive instead of re
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: signing them like Kenneth Walker for a second contract that
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: costs more for a position that's the most attruded and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: injured one in the sport. Now the drop off in
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: this the draft is weak. John Schneider tells us that
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks see it that way.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: That's why I only have four picks, and.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Running back might be the weakest of the weakest draft.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: The weakest position many people feel is running back, and
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: the two Notre Dame guys, Jeremiah Love and Generium Price
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: are the top two by a landslide, and then it
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: is a cliff. Many people think from two to three,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: four five. I thought for a month that they were
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: probably gonna go Jendarium Price. They saw him at his
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: pro day in Notre Dame. They've been talking to their
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the running backs coach for reportedly talking to him at
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the pro day of the Notre Dame running backs coach
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: and also return kicks. Was one of the best kickoff
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: returners in college football, return one for a touchdown at
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: USC and average over six yards of carrie in two seasons.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Wow as the backup to Jeremiah Love. But then I
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: started thinking about Chris and they. I see them being
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: pretty content with perhaps going with a pope pirie of
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: running backs, a committee perhaps headlined by Emmanuel Wilson, who
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: they signed to a one year deal, a five hundred
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: yard back, a part time back with Green Bay who's
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: still in his twenties. Kenny McIntosh is coming back. They
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: don't know when he'll be on the field. It won't
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: be in the spring, Mike McDonald said. But he had
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the knee injury that cost the entire season last year.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: That knee injury happened in July, so it's not a
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: charbonnet situation.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Sharbonay. Remember the acl tair happened in January.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Eight to twelve month typical recovery means he won't be
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: back till September at the year mid September at the earliest,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: after the season has already begun. Sharbon A suddenly is
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: in the last year of his contract. They signed Emmanuel
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Wilson from Green Bay. He's got a one year deal.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Kenny McIntosh is going into the last year his rookie
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: contract and he's yet to fulfill any promise because of
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: all the injuries he's had. George Hallani is a restricted
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: free agent. They brought back a one year contract Vellas
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Jones Junior Cam Akers, a former Rams number one pick.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Who are those guys?
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Well, they happen to be active for the Super Bowl
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: in February off the practice squad. They also are coming
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: back on one year deals Chris Every one of the
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: running backs the Seahawks have are not signed past twenty
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: twenty six, including Zach Sharbone, who had twelve touchdowns last year,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the most since Marshaan Lynch in twenty fourteen. Again, I
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: go back to what I said last segment, two segments ago.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: The draft is not for this year. The draft is
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: for two, three, four years down the road. And what
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: you see your salary cap in your position and your
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: roster to be and when they decide whether to take
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: a running back at the top of this year's draft,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: they want to know that that running back is who
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: they think will be on the roster and perhaps they're
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: lead back in four years. If you're gonna take him
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: with your number one pick, be it thirty two in
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: round one or trading back in the round two, he
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: dan well better be on the team in three or
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: four years. And I pulled Damien Martinez get cut as
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: a rookie. Now Martinsen was a seventh round pick. But
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: you're not gonna go to a running back in a
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: week class if you don't think he can be your
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: starter in two, three, four years from now. And that's
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: why I don't think they're gonna take a running back first.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: I've gotten off of that. I don't think they're gonna
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: take Price first. I think they're gonna take an edge
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: rusher or a cornerback. I could see him taking Brandon
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: CC instead of Malachi Lawrence with that first pick at
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: thirty nine after trading down for the Browns. I mock
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: drafts at the News Tribune dot com.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: What say you four, nine, four or five one? It's coming
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: out Texas. You want to come hell or high Water.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: You want a running back first, I've got him taking
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a running back, but not to round four. I think
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the league views this year's running back class so weekly
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: that Mike Washington, Junior, the two hundred and twenty three
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: pound running back from Arkansas, will still be available to
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks in the fourth round as maybe the third
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: back picked in this draft. Washington's big concern is he
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: had ten fumbles in three for three different teams in
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: college football, Buffalo, New Mexico State and Arkansas's one year
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: at Arkansas, but he in turn, he pressed everybody to
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: combine by running at two hundred and twenty three pounds.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: He ran a four to three three forty, which was
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the fastest forty time for anyone, any back over two
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty pounds. He may be gone by round four.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: The Seahawks may be fine with that. My point is
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're reaching for one. I know they're not,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: and I don't. I could definitely see them not even
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: picking one because this draft is so weak. And let's
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: run with Emmanuel Wilson and hope Kenny McIntosh comes back,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: and let's see when when Sharbonne gets back and let's
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: run with Cam Akers, who used to be a lead
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: back in this league. Chris, you think it has to
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: be running back or bust or what do you see
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: them doing?
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: I don't. I trust what they're doing their vision.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: I was not big on rotating Kenneth Walker and Zach
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Sharbonnay last season, and it worked out very well. It
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: was allowed Kenneth Walker to be healthy for the Super Bowl.
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: He played every single game last season, and he was
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: able to go get a contract elsewhere. Now would have
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: been nice of the sales are to retain him, but
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: the price didn't match. They weren't willing to take that risk.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: So for me looking at it, I think it's fair
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: to say, you know what, Kenny McIntosh in that preseason
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: last year, he showed that he could be a backup
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: running back, maybe even a starter if need be. So
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: I think the Seals of that mindset. They're not going
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: to go out and reach. They are confident with the
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: offensive line improved. If they can just get a guy
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: that can hold him to the football, get a couple
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: of yards of carry, the offense will be just fine.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: They don't need a Kenneth Walker. It'd be nice to
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: have that home run ability, but do they really need it?
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Sinners taking the next step. So there's a lot of
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: things that a defense is going to key in on
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: that might not have to do with the running back.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: It is nice to have someone that on the first
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: carry they can just take it to the house, and
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: that's what Washington Junior brings. But if he's not there,
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: then you move ahead with what you have, whether it's
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Zach Charbaday returning at some point in the regular season,
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: Kenny McIntosh is one hundred percent healthy, he's good to go.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: And then you got you listed the other running backs
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: on the roster that might get opportunities, whether.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Any of those.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Georgecelani impressed them in the NFC title game in Super
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Bowl and people were.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Like, why is he getting carries?
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Well, he's not doing bad, he's doing it Super Bowl,
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: he made plays and if you want to get on
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: our roster and get an extension, get paid more, they
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: all have an opportunity to do that this year.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: So maybe this is the other thinging.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, one of these guys could potentially pop, But right
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: now we're in April. We'll see what happens when we
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: get to OTA's when we get to mini camp and
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: all these things where you get to see these players
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: and see how they are with this new offensive coordinator
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: that came in, with everything going on with the old line,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: with the running bay situation. So I'm of the mindset
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: that I think the Seahawks are not going to press
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: panic on it.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: If at sixty what is it sixty four right now?
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: If Mike Washington junior is a Mike Washington junior is available,
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: why wouldn't the Seahawks take him? If he's available, to
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: your point, a guy with that upside, he.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Might not be available.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: Too many teams are gonna be like, Yay fumbled a lot.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: We can't fix that, we can't help him be better
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: at covering, taking care of the football.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: We're going to pass on that and let another team
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: get it. But how does the league value running backs?
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: They are so devalued anymore that maybe teams won't spend
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: a second round pick on one.
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: The Seahawks have spent a second round pick on running
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: backs three of the two.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Of the last four years. Right they back to back years.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker in the second round of Michigan State the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: very next year, Zach Charbonnay in the second round twenty
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: twenty three out of UCLA. But now this is the
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: first of all their offensive line is better than it
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: was then. Oh yeah, they have a direction outside zone clarity,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: and they're coaching John Benton has come back on the staff.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: That is a big factor here.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: And if you think your offensive line has become strong
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: enough to be carrying your offense, then you can go
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: with the I don't know if they's but we'll find out,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: right because I think they took the next step as
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: to prove that they can be decent to better to good.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I think they're in that good range.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: If they're going to be the catalyst, then my goodness,
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: you have an elite defense, a good offensive line that
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: Greg Bell and I can run behind. This team is
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: a favorite to win this award. That's the case.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: That's not a car you could run behind. I can't, Greg,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: you could run behind. I never had any use anyone.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Oh I thought you had Achilles with flag football.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: No, no, just you know, nothing serious. But I believe in you,
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: Greg fall fall the light.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You're welcome a right, here's a name for you Husky
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: fans Jonah Coleman.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: But see, Greg, how many power back do you want
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: on your roster?
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I'll take a Jonah Coleman on my roster. Would I wouldn't.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't take my second round pick on.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: I know, but you'd be okay with Zach Charbonay. And well,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know when Sharbony is coming back. Let's assume
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: he's back.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Mike Washington Junior from Arkansas, you could argue is a
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: power back. He's two hundred twenty three pounds.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: Now, he also had there Kenneth Walker like gone, yeah,
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: and that's what Zonah doesn't have.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: And that's why I'm like, do you really want two
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: of those guys?
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: This is spoken by a Seattle native and oh Day graduate,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: but also a Washington State Cougar.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Just to put it in a hot day, you're making
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: it real even a.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Context I'm making I just don't know. I'm just also
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: showing that I know you we go way back, Chris.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: If you're just listening to show going, who's this voice?
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: It's Christopher Kidd. He's back.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: He is back.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: I did there is a good camp. They call him
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: the thick Bucky Irving. What do you think of that? Comparison. Yes,
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: a thick Bucky Irving and this is from the Ringer
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: the NFL Draft Guide.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Well that would work. What would were you wrong with
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: that in the Seahawks backfield. Probably nothing.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: I actually think Bucky Irving is a very good player
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: for Tampa Bay and when he's hurt, their offense goes nowhere.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I saw a status I think it was Warren Sharp
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Warren Shop Analytics and Football. He was talking about Jonah
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Coleman being number one in the draft class in yards
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: after contact, first down, percentage of first down, all these
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: statistics that say bonafid number one running back. Now, he
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: doesn't have the gigantic size, and to Chris's point, he's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: not seen as a decisive as a runner and more
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: of a power back. He could be a sixth round
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: pick option. I mentioned in Nez Cooper, the right guard
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: for Miami, is who I projected at news tribute dot
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Com for the Seahawks to pick in the sixth round
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: with their final pick.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: I guess I'm just spoiled with the thunder and lightning.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Right last season you had thunder with Zach Charbonnet and
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: you're lightning with K nine, and it was it was
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: now I'm like, oh, do it again, right as opposed
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: to just having two thunders?
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Was Kenny McIntosh your thunder and lightning?
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: I I don't know.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: I mean sure no one's seen him, right, yeah, exactly,
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Like I'm just projecting that, Yeah, it'll be fine.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know that you can plan on Zach Sharbone.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: It's Is it a given that eight to twelve.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Months he's gonna come back and be the twelve touchdown
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: guy he was this pastation?
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Probably not.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: They're probably gonna ease him into it and not just
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: be like, hey man, the same workload you had last year,
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: it's third and shortened the goal.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: He's gonna be on a pup list to be in
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: training camp, and he's gonna be on a three week
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: run up and practice when they finally do activate him,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: which will take you into at least October at the
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: best case, and his contract ends after this year, what's
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: their choice on him?
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: I can't at this point, why would you resign him?
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: Just don't Chase Rolls, Seahawks, Just do not Chase Rolls. Chase.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: If you can find a complete back in the draft, great,
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: If not, you have plenty of running backs on your
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: roster and maybe one of them does pop. Is it
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: a big risk to say that none of them do?
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: That could be like, well that was stupid. You could
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: have easily did a B and C, but you didn't.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: And again, none of the Seahawks running backs are signed
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: beyond twenty twenty six. Yeah, that's really odd, and that
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: to me means they're going to draft one.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's Chip training him.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Is a former Ohio State Buckeye Arizona State running back.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: He was at Kentucky then he ended up at Toledo.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: He rushed for one thousand yards and twelve touchdowns for
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Toledo last year. My buddy Brady Henderson said the Seahawks
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: had a top thirty prospect visit with Chip training them
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: out of Toledo at the running back position, So they
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: are definitely. They've already met with Mike Washington junior at
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Arkansas on a top thirty visit. Now that's those aren't IIOWA.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: If he visited, Seahawks are gonna draft him. But last year,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: three guys they drafted that had been top thirty vits
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Nick even worry, Brice Cable Doo and Tory Orton. Tory
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Horton was coming to make sure that they were checking
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: his medicals and make sure that his leg injury a season,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: any leg injury from Colorado State was okay, And I'm
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: sure enough. He lasted only into the first week in November,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: and he injured his shin. By the way, that is
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the most mysterious, extensive shin injury in the history of shin's.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he got really Jackie. We won't talk about what happened.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: We can only assume.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: We keep pressing them too, mcdonaldly and everybody else in
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the ability I would you can only assume, and this
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: is a supposition I shouldn't probably make without knowledge that
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: it had to be a fracture of some kind. I mean,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: how could you be out from November until training camp
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: to following year, they said, he McDonald just said this
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: couple weeks ago that he is not going to be
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: on the field for any of the OTA's or mini
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: camps this spring.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: Very unfortunate because they brought him in and he looked phenomenal.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Right, you thought, oh my.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Goodness, Rashid Shihed JSN and the young Tory Horton, Cooper Cup,
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: we love you too.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: But Mike, this is like, wow, And that's what they
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: think they're gonna get if Tory Horton comes back in
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: time for training camp. And when they re signed Rashid
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Chi Heat, it wasn't well we have Toy Horton, why
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: were you signing?
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: They want them both.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: They want both of them to be stretching defenses and
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: then JSN work underneath them.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Let's see, we will see.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: And and Tory Horton is another one just like Kenny McIntosh.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Those are two big pieces to their plans and the offense.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: These posts Kenneth Walker moves and when he bring back.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: They didn't bring back Rashiki Heat for seventeen million just
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: to be a wide receiver. Obviously, he's a Pro Bowl
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: game breaking kick returner. That was probably the MVP of
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: the second half of the season for his kick returns.
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, John Steiler was like a genius with that trade. Yeah, goodness,
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: he came in and won two games for you.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: They don't win that ram second game in the overtime,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: if he doesn't return that touchdown with a left they're
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: done sixteen points until he did that. Yeah, And if
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: they don't win that game, Chris, they don't get the
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: first round. They don't get the first seam, they don't
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: get to buy, they don't have home playoff games.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: A completely different dicussion. Playing the NFC title game in Inglewood.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah they could win, but man, it'd be a lot
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: it'd be a lot different. That was rashiki last year
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: playoff MVP.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: I know they get the MVP in the Super Bowl too,
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: K nine, but if they had a quote unquote playoff yeah, Like,
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: how could you not say Rashichi.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: I would pay him seventeen million a year just for
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: that game against the Rams.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: It's funny you mention that after the game. I'm thinking,
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: how does this guy not have an extension on letter
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: on the door on his locker, Like, hey, Bud, we
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: want to see if you want the extra sixteen mil
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: for many years because his.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: Agent is smart and so keep running there, keep front
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: of those kicks back into the playoffs with the wole league
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: watching the overpay.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: You know a little, but he's a need that you have.
• 17:13

  Speaker 1: Chris and me, I should say back to the show together.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: One of them said, you sound happy, Chris.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: I thought I always sounded happy, But I guess I
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: guess I need to work on my poker faces.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: That's the case, my goodness.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: You could also type in your questions or comments on
• 19:15

• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Which is new to me. Hello, YouTube world, What you
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: got Chris? All right, let's get things rolling.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: Hey might be a little sore, Greg, but give us
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: your take on navy crushing armor come.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: On, you're gonna lead.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: I come back on Earth from a year away and
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: you hit me with Navy beating Army.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: That's your first thing, you know.
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: The text line said, hey, come on, I know you.
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: It's been a while, but I just got to know.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: Greg not trying to bring up old things, but can
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: you help me out? You want to talk about it?
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: And it sounds like he doesn't want too lazy.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: It was a ten and one Army team that lost
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: to a very middling team. Now Navy was good last
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: year and Army was okay. But no, I don't want
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: to talk about them.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I was there, Jessein McIntyre were they. We're gonna be
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: there again this December, second week of December.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: It's in New York. It's gonna be the Meadowlands and.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: But yeah, next sorry, if you ask John Schneider about
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Creed Humphrey, what do you think, man, A one word
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: reaction would be from him. I thought we're gonna get
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: through the whole show without bringing up Creed Humphrey a
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: draft show.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: No, when we started talking about the old line and
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: you mentioned Hunger and Jimmy Graham, it was eventually somebody
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: was gonna take a bite on the bait.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: He does not like being asked about. That was the
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: d Eskridge draft, the escorte remember him. That's a blast
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: in the path. He was our top pick that year.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: That was the COVID draft, was it not? That was
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: the only three picks.
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: Yes, yes, Creed.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Humphrey was not one of them. M But I guess
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Jonson Dell wouldn't be your starting center. They drafted Creed Humphrey,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: although your your center would still cost twenty million dollars
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: a year.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: But oh you got one now, great, go ahead, all right, Greg,
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: I'm curious if you had to put any money down
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: on the NBA playoffs to win the championship, that is,
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: would you just go San Antonio?
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: And this's from the two five to three? And well, shit,
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: that's my partner, Chris Kid more than me. But oh,
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: you know who they guys? You don't know? Yeah, I don't. Yeah.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Are the Lakers really for real? Is that just a charade? Well,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Kevin Durant didn't even play. Okay, his knee hurts, my knee.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Guys have a little contusion.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Wait, they do load management for eight months for the
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: playoffs and then when the playoffs start, it's my knee hurts.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: It was really fascinating because personally I drafted Kevin Durant
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: for our Green Jacket draft that we do every year
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: for the NBA playoffs. So I got Katie thinking he was,
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: you know, got to play with game one. I didn't
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: even hear about it until he's warming up and they're like, oh, yeah,
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: by the way, Katie's not going to play tonight in
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: game one because there's a knee contusion.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh cool.
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: So I start off playoffs with a zero from KD
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: Thumbs up, guys.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: Load management for the player. Answer your question.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: The Lakers are in an interesting position because they don't
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: have Luca. Then when I have Austin Reeves for the
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: first round, and now you're looking at a forty one
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: year old to just be great again, which he probably
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: couldn't do. But that's just is Brownie James on the
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: roster for the playoffs. He's still playing, he played, he's
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: he's been earning minutes, so you know, to share a
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: court with your son in the playoff game is probably
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: pretty cool for him.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Why not the Spurs, especially because they broke out the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: old colors of nineties colors.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: That was funking cool. I'm not gonna lie. I enjoyed that.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: That was when they used to play in the Alamodome.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: You know they used to play in the.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Football That's right. Yeah, they played when I was a kid.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: They played in Hemispherre Arena. George Gervin. You ever heard
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: George Geren the iceman? Hey, Caleb Williams social say thank you?
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Yes, thank you is the iceman? No, Caleb Williams, George
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: good football? There you go, there you go. They played
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: in Hemisphere Arena downtown.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: That was in the Fairgrounds, and then they played the Alamodome,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: a football stadium, which, by the way, is one of
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: the best foot all stadiums I've ever been in the cover.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: It's beautiful sight lines. It's where the Huskies and Keith
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: Price had a shootout with r G three and Baylor
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: and I was there for that. Yeah, okay, let's say Spurs.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I know anybody in the East worth I wish the
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Knicks were good.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: Well, this is the year the Knicks. They they were
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: good last year, yeah they were. They got beat by
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: the Pacers. How can the Pacers? I mean they finished
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: then they finished last in the League.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: Well, when you lose Miles Turner, a guy that rebounds
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: the Fins, and your best player tries to gut it
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: out into Game seven and blows the achilles, you can
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: just kiss your season.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: But really, do they go that bad?
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: They also traded one of their guards, so they they
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: had they had to do something and they were tanked. Yeah,
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: so that's just the risk of Yeah, I'm gonna go
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: that moved for the Knicks.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: When I was back at West Point, I used to
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: go to Knicks games and followed the Knicks. And this
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: was back in Charles Oakley, back when violence was you know,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I was part of the fall. I mean it was yeah,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: plastic face. That was the Knicks that I like when
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I was in college. Okay, Jacartia Wright two five three.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I think Jacartia Wright might be a sleeper in the
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: running back room.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: That's interesting.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: He's been a summer training camp star and then has
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: been mostly a practice squad player, but they did resign him.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: He's on the ninety man roster. He's also just signed
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: for this year. Reminds me of a lot of Arian Foster.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: I've heard that name in a while. That's a Houston
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Texans River man, he was phenomenal Tennessee that I would
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: neglected to mention Jacari Wright is in the stable of
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: running backs and perhaps on the committee.
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: Good pool there from two five three. Thank you.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: This is a fun one. And Greg's probably gonna laugh
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: and be like, no, I haven't. But have you seen
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: Gladiator yet?
• 24:49
  Speaker 8: That's from Jason. I'm disappointing you, Greg christ All. You
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: could probably see it now fourteen months. What you been
• 24:57
  Speaker 8: doing man, that you let the beard grow out every
• 25:00
  Speaker 8: but you haven't spent two.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: M the show?
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I haven't spent two hours. Is that a
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Christmas movie? Someone said no, that would be die hard? Okay,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: that's the debate is Diehard Christmas and the debate.
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: It's kind of a Christmas movie And if you're wrong,
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: if you disagree, people hate you for it.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: So we'll just leave it at that.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: You know, Chuck Powell can break it all down for you,
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: because he's brought it up a few times as well.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, it's definitely a Christmas movie, not a debate.
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: Next, all right, Greg, I agree with you that your
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: take that the Seahawks should use players they know they're
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: going to resign and trade them for more picks.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: At worst, they become what death players.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: Correct.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, because there's four year contracts, you're not
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: going to cut them by well not always.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: They cut David Martinez. Here we go.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: I'm sure Greg is only back for the hourly keyword
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: dominating factor fiction.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: It's good to hear your back, Greg. Appreciate that Bill's
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: was the word this hour.
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: By the way.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: Baya, Oh hey, hey from the three six, So Brownie
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: is earning minute. That's four minutes of action. All right,
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: that's earned. JJ didn't go you know what, Bud get
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: in there. He earned those four minutes.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: What see do they fourth? Third?
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: They are the fourth playing the fifth against the Houston Rockets,
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: So yeah, they they were looking good.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: There was a tier. It was ok see Denver Nuggets
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: and who am i? Oh? And the Spurs?
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: What do you think is shake Gilgess Alexander by the way, players,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: But why does he flop all over the place.
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: Like because changed and nowadays it's all about can you
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: sell this to your ref to get to the foul line,
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: to get an opportunity to score and dominate and.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: To drive up your scoring average. No, just to beat teams.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: He could care less about scoring he wants winn their championship,
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: and one way to do that get to the foul
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: line and make free throws because you know he shoots
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: ninety so and.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: Because of the MVP he gets all the calls. Right.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: Well, he's he's phenomenal. I just you put your hand
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: anywhere in there. He's good at just going.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Up as a basketball. Do you like watching that? I
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: like watching him create separation.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: He looks like an Italian soccer player on the floor.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Hem just falling all over the place. Though, Well, he
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: is smooth. If there was a simulation in the NBA,
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: he would lead the league in it.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's a flopper for sure. But why is
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: that respected or lauded or the same way Joel Embiid
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: did it?
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: A seven foot two dude that spent a majority of
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: his career at the foul line and earned MVP votes
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: and dominate other bigs. SGA's just doing at the guard position.
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: You just don't see guys being able to dribble like
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: that and get those calls.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Usually the rest just ignore it. But he gets fouled.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: It's not like now.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: I will admit sometimes he does flail, but a lot
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: of the times He's really smart at getting the ball
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: to where he wants. You reach his defender, and now
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: he's at the line and he gets two buckets and
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: there's not much you can do because he is so
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: shipped and he has a good handle, and you know
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: what else he can do. He can shoot the MIDI
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: he can shoot the three. So now you're like, well,
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: how do I stop this guy? You put your hands up,
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: doesn't matter, he bumps into your chest. He's just really
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: smart and he plays the game the right way and
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: he gets his teammates involved, which is why I'm afraid
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: that they're gonna win another championship.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: So I was just gonna say, you're a Seattle guy
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: who's it's going on about Oklahoma City.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: Good, I think they're gonna win it.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: Huh, Spurs are the only one, Spurs the only hope
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: or Denver if Denver can, if Yogics can just be
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: what he's what he is, and Jamal Murray can play
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: some better defense, like yeah, but they look like they're
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: just unstoppable.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: It sucks to say that because this could be Seattle.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: But hopefully we'll get a vote in July about the
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Sonics coming back, And I can take off some of
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the June finals. It sounds like Oklahoma City's on their
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: way to it. We'll see the Sonics may not, that
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: may not become official until the winners deep fall. But
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: that's what we have to look forward to you here
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: in Seattle, but not talk about Oklahoma City when back
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: to back titles. That's got sorry my bad.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: We can you can just tease that the mayor is
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: coming up. My apologies.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Three successes Halani and mcint until a glass of sharbon ay,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Well that's assumption. Can Sharbone come back during the season.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: We'll see if Zach Sharviny come back from the a CEO.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: The Mayor Maple Vali, I think he's in house today.
• 29:10

• 30:36
  Speaker 6: We talked about running back. Do you think it's like
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: imperative that they have to do that. Man, I stopped
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: guessing what John Shiner is going to probably in twenty eleven.
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, because you're never going to be right.
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I mean that's all that's the obvious need,
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: right for sure.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: It's a week draft for running back, week drafted period,
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: but a week draft particular for running back.
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: I hope they I just hope there's picks on Saturday,
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: because we've got a lot of radio.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: I think they're going to gain at least one pick.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I can't imagine him just going four rounds with only
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: one pick in the sixth round.
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: Well, the last time was the COVID year mm hmm,
• 31:12
  Speaker 6: and then and then the following what two or three
• 31:15
  Speaker 6: drafts have been spectacular, right, so when he has done that,
• 31:19
  Speaker 6: it's been pretty good. Like it's it's it's been really good.
• 31:22
  Speaker 6: So you know, I mean, I don't know, it's I
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: think it's it's so much fun because we're guessing. You know,
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: we're playing a guessing game with him and kind of
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: past history. We learned from history and we know that
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: he likes to move down, which is it's what is it?
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: Ten of the fourteen times or whatever it is.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Ye sixteens takest round.
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah, So, I mean I think all those things come
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: into play. I I the running back position at rusher
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: corner for some competition with Joe for sure, and some depth.
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, those are the positions in need. That's not
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: a secret. You know.
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: The other thing is.
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: Is they've they return eleven of twelve, ten of eleven
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: starters on offense. You know, you lose Kobe Bryant, but
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: you got Tyokatta, You've got some depth at the corners of.
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: Young guys and safety, some young guys.
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: I wonder, Greg, I wonder if the name Jacartia Right's
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: gonna be one.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we brought him up. That's really good.
