3 lifelong friends, 6 trusty balls and endless NFL takes.

Welcome to Three guys 6 Balls NFL Podcast.
0:08
Welcome to episode 59 of Three guys 6 Balls NFL Podcast.
0:11
I'm your host Joel and I'm here with my two Co hosts Will and
0:14
Avery. The NFL draft is happening this
0:16
week and that means we need to finalize our top 50 big board,
0:19
which we'll be doing today. And then after that we'll talk
0:22
about some draft stuff, maybe talk about some trades, maybe do
0:25
a mock draft. We'll see what happens, but
0:27
before we do that, Avery is your fiance with you right now?
0:30
No. Dang it.
0:32
Wanted to meet Derek. I wanted to meet Derek.
0:35
Derek. Derek.
0:38
Yeah, Derek's gone. I just thought I would ask
0:43
because the last time we tried to meet her after the episode
0:46
and then you said you had to take a dump and left, so I was
0:49
hoping we would get to meet. Her.
0:50
That was my excuse last week, yeah.
0:52
Yeah, it was. I did also have to in fair, in
0:55
all fairness. During recording a few weeks
0:58
ago. I did leave in the episode.
1:03
Well, I don't know if you ever listened that, but.
1:05
I'm aware. You know what?
1:07
I didn't listen to it. I heard most people text me
1:11
dropping that he. That's so funny.
1:12
I'm like, yeah, he did me dirty, didn't he?
1:18
I told you I was going to leave it in.
1:19
But you did, and I didn't doubt you.
1:21
Anyways, let's get into this top 50 big board for the 2026 NFL
1:25
Draft because we have a lot to talk about.
1:27
So I'm going to share my screen before we get officially started
1:30
ranking these guys. I do have one question for you.
1:32
How many players in the 2026 NFL Draft would you guys give a
1:35
first round grade 2? 32 of them because there's that
1:38
many picks. Probably.
1:43
I'd say like maybe 2025. Let me give you guys a little
1:46
bit of a guideline. Let me give you a little bit of
1:49
a guideline here. So Matt Miller, who has been an
1:52
NFL draft analyst for a long time, says that the average
1:55
draft class has 15 players with a first round grade.
1:58
But in this draft class, he has only 12 players listed with a
2:02
first round grade. And then also Dane Bruegler, who
2:05
is another big draft analyst, says that there are 14 players
2:07
in this draft with a first round grade.
2:09
So I don't know if that helps you guys at all, but what do you
2:12
guys think? I don't necessarily disagree
2:14
with that. How many times we sat here and
2:16
said, ah, this guy is just he's just a guy who's going to play
2:20
or he's good at this thing, but not good at something else or
2:24
he's going to need good players around him to be good.
2:28
Even up to last week we were talking about with the no, not
2:32
last year, TJ Parker. It wasn't last week, a few weeks
2:34
ago, TJ Parker how he did really good two years ago and everybody
2:38
knew who he was and last year he didn't do good at all.
2:41
And so it's like, well, that's not first round, first round
2:44
talents. You want the guys going to show
2:46
up every play every year. That's who you want to spend
2:49
your first round pick on. We the value of these first
2:51
round picks, especially nowadays is incredibly high, which is
2:55
weird because I felt like not that long ago it wasn't that
2:57
high, but now we're back to being very valuable.
3:00
And so to get a first round grade as a player, that's almost
3:04
like an honor at this point. Yeah.
3:06
I, I mean, I feel like first round usually kind of synonymous
3:12
with that, you know, that lottery section and I know I'm
3:15
using a basketball term, but I think it kind of applies just
3:18
that higher echelon of first round.
3:21
You know, if you're looking at top five pick versus, you know,
3:26
picks 25 to 30, you know, I, I think there's kind of a drop off
3:31
and it might just have more to do with hype or just, you know,
3:34
who we think who you've decided is the best.
3:36
But I mean, it really is kind of a, there's that exponential
3:41
curve there where it's like, no, you want like a top ten top 15
3:45
pick, you know, like who is it? You know, the Raiders, you know,
3:49
with the whatever 33rd pick is that do they have, what do they
3:52
have? Do they have like the first
3:53
round first pick of the second round?
3:55
They have fake 36. OK.
3:58
But even that, I mean, even that, I mean, if you're looking
4:00
at, you know, some team that's got, you know, pick 2928, you
4:04
know, versus pick 36, I mean, I mean, it is still in a different
4:08
round. But at the same time, I mean,
4:09
there's not a whole lot of difference there.
4:11
So I would still say I I, I, I, I take back what I said, I think
4:15
there should be about 32 players that have first round grades.
4:19
But I would be curious to know, you know, how good the latter
4:24
half of the first round is this year compared to other years
4:31
because it's easy when you look at, you know, top heavy drafts,
4:34
you know the top five top 10 picks.
4:37
But when it comes to the bottom half of the first round, I'd
4:40
really be curious to know how this year stacks up against
4:43
previous years. Quick question for you in this
4:46
12 players that have or 414 players, whatever was both.
4:50
So I think that have first round talents or first round grades.
4:53
Does that include top five and and first round?
4:57
Is that or because I know, I know, like in basketball
5:00
specifically, everybody playing the 2K games, people will get
5:03
like a top five thing or people get a lottery tag and the the
5:08
NFL doesn't really have that as much.
5:10
Are they counting their top five grades in there?
5:13
Or is it? Is it all?
5:14
How? How does that work?
5:15
You know, I tried to look this up and I couldn't find exactly
5:18
how they are like grading these guys, so how they determine who
5:22
has a first round grade, but I would assume it would just be
5:25
like a guy that they would draft in the first round.
5:28
Oh, sure. Yeah, I don't know.
5:31
I tried to look it up and I couldn't really find it.
5:32
I could just find like how many guys were the first round grade
5:35
that they actually had. So I don't know what the
5:37
criteria is for them actually considering somebody a first
5:40
round grade. That's like compared to previous
5:43
years because otherwise, I mean, it, it's all relative.
5:47
You know, I mean, you could just have, I mean, if the top 32
5:52
players in the draft decided to leave the draft, how many first
5:57
round grades would there be? You know, is it just the next 30
6:01
guys up or is it like, oh, I guess there's no first round
6:05
grades? It's like, OK, what if they
6:07
never, what if these players never existed?
6:09
They were never born right, you know.
6:11
I think at that point, like grading on a curve, the curve
6:15
changes, right? That's, that's everybody wants
6:17
is they want, they want everyone to fail the test that we all get
6:20
100%. And so you're, you're grading on
6:22
a curve here. And so that's what I wonder.
6:25
It's like, OK, well, if we're talking about first round
6:27
grades, there should be 32 first round grades because otherwise
6:31
it's like, well, I don't think this guy is as good as he could
6:33
be. It's like, OK, well, I mean, how
6:36
are we really comparing these? So I don't know, that's just I'm
6:39
also just picking this thing apart, so.
6:42
It's yeah. OK, so let me ask you guys
6:44
another question and then I'll give you some information after
6:47
you answer that might help answer this first question.
6:49
So as a fan, what do you expect from your first round draft
6:53
pick? The the best available team need
6:56
out there. No.
6:57
So like what do you expect? What do you expect from that
7:00
player? Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you
7:03
meant like what I want my team to draft.
7:05
That was the obvious answer. I don't know.
7:08
Hey, were you going to start? I would like it.
7:12
I mean, I think the big thing is, is that you expect them to
7:17
kind of be the face of your franchise within a few years or
7:20
at least represent that position or that side of the ball.
7:24
I feel like in general, like that is kind of, you know,
7:26
that's the headline of your offseason is who is the guy that
7:30
you went out and got? I think it's less so maybe
7:33
towards the bottom of the first round, you know, if you've got
7:36
pick 30, you know, when you get that guy, like it's still a
7:39
first round pick, but that's not seen the same as pick five, you
7:44
know, and so I I, I I feel like that upper the top half of the
7:48
first round. It is kind of that it's like,
7:50
look, you are expected to represent this organization more
7:54
than more than other players. Like we we are betting the house
7:58
on you. I don't know, it's kind of a big
8:00
weight on these players shoulders, but more than
8:03
anything I think just, you know, you have to perform and we
8:07
hopefully, you know, expect you to stick around this team.
8:11
I think best case scenario is I want a player who's going to
8:15
contend for a starting spot in their position.
8:19
So even if we drafted somebody, I guess the The only exception
8:23
there would be like, like for instance, if the Rams were to
8:25
draft Ty Simpson at 13, I don't think that's too far fetched.
8:29
I don't expect that anymore. I don't expect Ty Simpson to be
8:34
pushing Matt Stafford to possibly overtake him.
8:37
But for most teams, unless you're drafting for the future,
8:41
which like the Packers did a few years ago, unless you're
8:43
specifically drafting for a future piece right now, I would
8:46
expect them to compete for a starting spot in their position
8:50
or if they're good enough, move from tackle to guard or from
8:55
corner to safety. Or I mean, that's an incredible
8:58
that's a lot harder than people think it is moving from corner
9:00
to safety. But like and so is from tackle
9:02
to guard or guard to tackle right for a starting spot
9:05
somewhere on our my team. OK, so I feel like this is not
9:09
what I think, but I think that most fans think that if you have
9:14
a pick in the first round, you should be getting an elite
9:17
player with that first round pick.
9:19
Now, the reason I don't think that is because I actually am
9:22
reasonable and I look into things and that's just how it
9:25
works. But that's what most fans would
9:28
expect based off of the comments and things like that that I see
9:31
on Instagram and TikTok and our social media.
9:34
Fans expect all of these guys in the draft who are going to be in
9:37
the in the first round. They expect them to be an elite
9:40
player. They don't have any weaknesses.
9:42
They don't have any weaknesses. They're all.
9:45
Erfect layers because they watched one highlight video and
9:47
they're going to be an elite layer because they will get
9:49
drafted in the first round. O What I did is I went back and
9:53
I looked at the previous first round draft results and I
9:56
started with 2023 and I went back to 2019 and I looked at
10:00
what players you could consider elite.
10:02
And the reason I went back to 2023 is because you always hear
10:05
people say, well, you have to wait at least three years before
10:07
you can truly evaluate how good a pick was.
10:10
So I went through every pick for those five drafts and I counted
10:13
how many players I personally would consider to be elite.
10:16
And here's what I found. So in 2023, there were seven
10:19
players who were elite. 2022 there's 10/20/21, there's
10:23
9/20/20 there's 7, and 2019 there's five.
10:27
So now there could be a player or two in each draft class.
10:29
That's debatable that I didn't put in there.
10:31
But regardless, when you go back and look at the draft classes,
10:34
less than half of the players drafted in the first round will
10:37
go on to be elite players. So although fans expect their
10:40
first round picks to come in and be great because they were
10:42
drafted in the first round, chances are that's not going to
10:45
happen. And that just tells you how
10:47
truly hard it is to evaluate these players.
10:49
So I don't know if that helps you guys with the first question
10:52
of how many first round grades would you give or if that makes
10:55
it harder, but I'd be curious, I mean.
10:58
That's interesting. I I'd be curious to know how
11:00
many busts there would be, you know, so when you're drafting,
11:06
you know, yeah, just I, I, I mean, like the difference
11:09
between like, OK, you know, how many of these guys in the 1st 32
11:13
picks our actual first round guys like, like you look at you
11:18
look at them 5, three to five years down the road and just be
11:22
like it at the very least, was this a first round talent OR was
11:27
this shoot we, we messed up or is it, Dang, you know, we struck
11:31
gold here. Because I do wonder, you know,
11:34
that because I do feel like to a degree that is what teams are
11:36
looking at is like, OK, are we swinging for the fences on this?
11:41
Is this a little bit of this Jordan Tyson situation where
11:44
it's, you know, high ceiling, very low floor?
11:47
Is it a, you know, maybe a David Bailey situation where it's
11:51
like, you know, the the floor and the ceiling are very, very
11:54
close, but you're getting a very safe pick of a productive player
11:57
right away. You know, and, and so I, I do
12:01
wonder when looking at some of these guys, you know, it's like,
12:05
hey, what are, what are you looking at?
12:08
You know, what are you looking for and what is the best thing
12:11
you can expect? Because I, I, I would definitely
12:13
agree, you know, with what Joel saying that's on average around
12:17
like 7 to 8 guys every year, at least in the first round.
12:21
You know, there might be 7 guys in the whole rest of the draft
12:24
that turn out to be elite, you know, but like those, I, I mean,
12:28
I don't know if those guys, I mean, there's probably even
12:31
deeper research here, but knowing like, you know,
12:34
retroactively going back and being like, hey, were these guys
12:37
expected to be that? Were they expected to be any
12:41
better than the pick that they were selected at?
12:45
But either way though, I, I still, I mean, going back to
12:47
what I was saying earlier, the, you know, first round grade, I
12:50
mean, that is the first round grade.
12:52
I mean, that's there, there are going to be those elite players,
12:55
there's going to be the boss and there's going to be the guys
12:57
that meet expectations. And that's all part of that
13:01
first round grade. It's all part of the first round
13:04
expectation. It's very hard to grade players
13:07
to judge players accurately. Really.
13:10
It's easy to just look at them and just say you're good, you're
13:13
bad, but you accurately look at players and me.
13:16
Well, I see this, I see that and how many times on on our videos,
13:20
all podcast equipment. It's too, too cheap.
13:22
If you knuckle had to do with it.
13:23
Yeah, well, that's every time. Yeah, your phone was too cheap
13:27
if you used to have it and you're able to make stupid
13:29
comments like that. I just think that's.
13:32
How you know, that's how you know that somebody truly doesn't
13:35
know ball is if that's all they can say is if all they can say
13:38
is make podcast equipment more expensive, you know that they
13:41
don't know anything about football.
13:44
That's what I comment back to them every single time, and I
13:46
never respond to it, by the way. No, of course not.
13:48
It's it's because they put the comments out there to get to
13:51
clicks on their comments and all they're doing is helping us out
13:54
anyway, not the point. The point is, is that this is
13:58
the second year we've done this. I feel like this year we did a
14:00
lot better than last year. And it's, it was no easier to,
14:03
to do. We put a lot more effort in
14:06
doing the know people and, and it's it's hard to to research 54
14:11
players and to try to gauge them accurately against each other
14:16
and against previous players. I would not want the job.
14:20
I used to think I wanted a job as an NFL scout.
14:23
I have no desire to have that job that is a A.
14:28
I agree it would be very tough, but let's get into this ranking.
14:33
So we have Sonny Styles ranked as a number one player right
14:36
now. Do you guys think that it might
14:38
have been a little bit irresponsible to put him as the
14:40
number one player because of his combine performance?
14:43
No, I mean, great, we're, we're talking power rankings here,
14:46
right? Just to clarify for the
14:48
audience, this isn't our mock draft.
14:51
No, this is not a mock jab. This is just our top 50.
14:54
Players, I mean, you could say it's irresponsible, I guess.
14:56
I still like it. I like it too.
14:58
I just wanted to make sure that you guys don't have any regrets
15:00
because I'm going to put this on the Internet and people are
15:02
going to be like, oh, Sonny Styles, he can't be the number
15:05
one player. You don't know Ball.
15:07
Well, you don't. Sorry.
15:11
I'm pulling up our big board on my other screen.
15:13
That way I can actually read it. The next guy I want to get to is
15:17
Peter Woods. Peter Woods has fallen down the
15:19
draft board for me a lot. And the reason why is because
15:22
after taking a step back in 2025 from 2024, Peter Woods did
15:26
almost nothing throughout this draft process.
15:28
He did nothing to help his draft stock.
15:30
But then you have a player like TJ Parker who also went to
15:33
Clemson and he also took a step back in 2025 and he had the same
15:36
questions that Peter Woods had. Well, TJ Parker went to the
15:40
Senior Bowl and he looked awesome.
15:41
He went to the combine and he participated.
15:43
TJ Parker said I know you have questions about me, so let me
15:46
answer them for you, while Peter Woods said, I know you have
15:49
questions about me and you're going to keep having questions.
15:52
So the fact that TJ Parker actually made an effort puts him
15:55
way higher on the board for me than Peter Woods.
15:58
So I think Peter Woods needs to go way down the board from 22.
16:02
I don't like him at 22. I like that.
16:04
I I, I do think that, you know, part of this, I would absolutely
16:09
consider character to be a big part of this just because I mean
16:13
that I mean, we've seen what poor character can do to a
16:17
player that's already on a team, you know, and how it either
16:21
deteriorates, you know, a locker room creates drama, forces
16:25
trades, you know, puts teams in precarious situations.
16:28
So I mean, as far as I'm concerned like that, that does
16:32
lower him in my opinion, that kind of lowered Makai Lemon a
16:35
little bit. It wasn't the same type of deal
16:37
but wasn't putting off good vibes.
16:41
OK, so just to just something on that real quick.
16:44
So I listened to this podcast called the NFL Stock Exchange
16:47
Podcast and one of the hosts is Connor Rogers.
16:50
And if you guys, I don't know if you guys are familiar with him
16:52
at all, but he went to the combine and he mentioned this
16:56
because a lot of people were saying things similar to Avery.
16:59
Like the way that McKay Lemon was in that interview was just
17:02
weird and like just giving you weird vibes.
17:05
Well, Connor Rogers said he talked to McKay Lemon after that
17:08
and he was like totally normal, totally normal.
17:12
He's like, I don't know what happened during that interview,
17:15
but it was a completely different person when I talk to
17:19
him. If anything, that just raises
17:21
more questions. I don't know.
17:24
It's kind of like it's that thing with the, I saw this clip
17:26
of what's his name, Sanders? What's the guy's name?
17:32
Shiloh. And then his brother Shador.
17:35
It's both of them like talking on a podcast or they're being
17:37
asked questions and Shador's sitting there using some like
17:41
sexy voice and Shiloh's like Kate, first of all, this use
17:44
your real voice, dude. This isn't how you sound.
17:47
He's like, what are you talking? What are you, what are you
17:49
talking about? And so when I see that, I mean,
17:51
that kind of throws me off a little bit, but also just want
17:56
wanting to know, OK, why was he different over here?
17:59
You know, as I mean, if it's one thing, if he's like, oh, he
18:02
explained it that he was just nervous and he didn't get a lot
18:05
of sleep and then he realized it and he's like, OK, that was
18:08
rough, you know, saying it, but it's like, oh, he's a different
18:10
person here. It's like, OK, why is why are we
18:13
getting two different versions of this guy?
18:15
So I'm not saying that's a bad or good.
18:17
I'm just saying that just does raise that raises another
18:21
question. Well, it's like when I talk to
18:23
you guys versus when I talk to my one year old daughter, it's
18:25
like, oh, you need Wawa, You need Wawa.
18:28
Yeah, at least at least that could be explained.
18:31
That that could be explained though, you know, or it's like,
18:34
hey, this was the reason I want to know like so you talk to
18:38
these members of the media like this, but this guy like that,
18:41
it's like, is there an explanation?
18:44
Like at least if I say like Joel, do you really call water
18:47
Wawa? You could easily say I was
18:49
talking to my child, my baby child, my.
18:52
Australian accent got. It got it anyway.
18:58
OK, so let me ask you guys this because we haven't really
19:00
accomplished anything here. So we have 54 players on the
19:03
board. Who are the four players need to
19:05
be off the board? Lee Hunter.
19:13
OK. I'm good.
19:14
I'm totally good. With that.
19:15
I have to go on, is Caleb Banks in the top 50 for you guys?
19:20
Yeah, see, here's the problem with Caleb Banks.
19:22
He's the one that just doesn't know how to play football.
19:24
He's the Shamar. He's he's a Shamar Stewart type,
19:27
right? Has all the physical attributes.
19:29
Just doesn't know how to play football.
19:31
Now he knows how to play football, doesn't know how to
19:34
excel at his position. How many of these guys are just
19:37
ranked out of pure potential? So I feel like, yeah, he should
19:39
stay. Do you think he should be
19:41
towards the bottom? Because right now he's at 43.
19:43
This is just. A random order.
19:45
I'd lower him a bit. Yeah.
19:50
Like 45. I'd raise Eli's.
19:52
I'd raise Eli's towers a bit. I'd lower Brandon Sissy a bit.
19:55
He's already at 47 so there's not much lower he can go.
19:59
There's there's always a little lower like I can go.
20:03
I'd even raise Chris Johnson. Where is Chris Johnson ranked on
20:07
this? He's right at 48.
20:09
Are we fighting again? We've already fight about this
20:13
guy once. Yeah, Joel wasn't there for
20:17
that. Or was it?
20:18
It was. Last week, it was last week.
20:20
Yeah, I was there for that. That's right.
20:22
OK, so who are the three players you guys want to kick out now?
20:25
I actually really like D'Angelo Ponce.
20:27
I'm curious as to why they had removed him.
20:30
That dude, That dude was everywhere.
20:32
Every time I watched an Indiana game that guy was all over the
20:35
place. We could take it out, no.
20:38
Easy choice. No, it's not.
20:40
So I'm going to be honest, I'm not super, super high on
20:43
Zechariah Branch. Like I think he can be a good
20:45
player, but I don't know if I'd necessarily view him as a top 50
20:49
player. Yeah, no, that's fair.
20:52
I I could see him definitely being a day 2, day three guy.
20:55
He didn't seem like any necessarily game changer, just
20:58
one of those special teams guys. Yeah.
21:00
And then you got to remember, like, this is just the top 50.
21:02
So if if they're ranked at 51 or below, they're not bad.
21:06
It's just this is our top 50 players.
21:08
I just don't feel like he's really like anything special.
21:12
I'm cool with that. OK, cool.
21:16
I'll take him out all right we got to eliminate 2 more will do
21:20
you think Chris Brazil is a top 50 player?
21:23
Because I know you like him and I know Avery does not like him.
21:27
I. Wasn't going to say something.
21:29
He's got the general speed. I just don't know if
21:31
positionally if that puts like like he's not the top echelon
21:35
wide receiver. I don't think he goes until day
21:38
three so maybe that alone pushes by the top 50.
21:42
I'm fine with pushing him out of the top 50.
21:44
That's fine. And we got to eliminate one more
21:46
guy, Max. I need you guys to do this
21:49
because I need to get more eyes from my thumb.
21:51
I it's literally blistering. I burnt it earlier.
21:54
Font. Wait, Avery, you said remove
21:56
Max? Yeah, the tackle from you want
22:00
to give. It a shot on the last name
22:01
there. E and A he natural E and natural
22:09
E and a core. Pretty close, actually pretty.
22:13
I'm pretty close. Maxi Editor.
22:16
E anatronios, that makes sense. That makes more sense than what
22:18
I said. Yeah, I'm cool with moving out.
22:21
Cool. What?
22:21
Do you think about Jacob Rodriguez Avery?
22:25
He's at 24 right now. I'm going to put him above Peter
22:28
Woods anti Simpson. Oh, drop Peter Woods a lot.
22:32
Drop it. Honestly dude, just straight up
22:35
drop him below Brandon C Say straight up move him down.
22:39
We can move him up later. Move Chris Johnson up like to
22:44
35. 35. You heard me.
22:47
You heard me. That's right.
22:49
That is. Your eyes way too high.
22:51
Sorry, your voice of reason is back.
22:53
Well, that is bald. Told Avery that he knows him.
22:57
Look, I'm so happy that Avery and Balls have conversations
23:00
regularly. I personally get my face that
23:02
close. I just need you to not put him
23:06
that high. OK, so here's what I would do.
23:09
I would put TJ Parker above him. I would put Chase Basantis above
23:12
him. I would put.
23:14
No, not Colton Hood. Well, Colton Hood.
23:18
Stowers, Stowers, McCoy. Stowers should go into the
23:22
second column. Stowers should absolutely be
23:25
second column. I don't disagree with that.
23:27
So who would we move out of second column?
23:29
Do you want to move Ty Simpson out of the second column all
23:31
together? Yes, Bernard.
23:34
Yeah, Ty Simpson should be out of there.
23:36
Yeah, he's the second best quarterback, but it doesn't mean
23:39
he's. Ty Simpson in the first round
23:41
guy though. He will, but that doesn't mean
23:42
he's necessarily the a top. That means that someone really
23:46
needs a quarterback. True, true.
23:48
Look, if let's be honest, between us, between us Oregon
23:52
guys, if Dante Moore would have been selected above Simpson,
23:56
Simpson doesn't need to be in that, doesn't need to be that
23:59
high. If Dante Moore, I don't think
24:02
before, I don't. Think when the draft happens
24:04
that Dante Moore would have been selected before Guy Simpson.
24:08
You don't think so? I don't think so.
24:11
I could go like #2. Yeah, he was.
24:14
He was the I. Understand.
24:17
I understand that he. Was the Mariota.
24:20
But Jameis Winston is not a bad comp.
24:23
The dude played for years and didn't realize he needed
24:25
glasses. I am not high on Dante Moore and
24:28
he is the starting quarterback for the team that I want more
24:30
than anything to win the national championship.
24:32
Yep. So I'm.
24:34
Really hoping so. I'm really hoping this offseason
24:37
figure he figures it out. I'm really hoping.
24:39
I do not think he's going to be a good professional quarterback.
24:45
You got to, if you're daunting more, you're watching this.
24:47
That's got to be tough because like, dude, we want to see you
24:51
succeed. In every game I watch, I hear
24:54
the announcers gush over this guy's going to be a top
24:57
prospect. Look at how poised he is.
24:58
I'm like, he's got a good team, he's well protected, he's got
25:02
weapons, but he's not showing me anything other than that.
25:06
He seems just like a very solid quarterback.
25:09
And then, as soon as any pressure showed up, folded like
25:13
a chair. Like an old chair folded in my
25:18
K. Good.
25:18
Get Dylan Riola in there. Have him just poking at his
25:22
back. Figure it out man.
25:27
I think Monroe Freeling needs to move up and if nobody cares, I
25:30
get to nobody cares but I because he's an.
25:33
Offensive tackle. Whether I think he's, he's our
25:38
web, whatever, he is top 25, top 22 really.
25:44
Does Denzel Boston. Serve to me are they he?
25:47
He probably should have a third column I I'm not high on Denzel
25:51
Boston, but that's a me. Thing I'm not that high on him
25:54
either. I wouldn't move him to 3rd.
25:55
I'd move him lower second, like a lot lower.
26:00
Maybe like around your mod. Yeah, I'm, I'm cool there.
26:04
Anywhere over there? I don't think, OK, OK, can we
26:08
just pause here real quick? Look at the consistency of
26:12
players here. Pardon my children yelling in
26:14
the background. I probably should stop talking.
26:16
It's too late. We have we have greens and blue
26:20
numbers all over the place. Either one through 28 right now
26:25
and people have grades. It's 29.
26:28
This guy no longer even has a grade.
26:30
How on earth are we judging him as a first round talent and in
26:34
our top 30? He didn't even, he doesn't even
26:38
have a body of work enough to put a grade on.
26:41
I do not understand the love for your mom, McCoy.
26:44
It's all. Past all the people on our
26:46
TikTok will. Dallas, the Dallas Cowboys need
26:50
to draft him because look what he did do.
26:53
Oh, we were good in the 90s. Oh, he was good two years ago.
26:56
That is a match made in heaven. That is, that is the definition
27:00
of team fit. You were good in the past.
27:04
We'll take you. Come on over.
27:07
Raiders draft for speed. There's that for Dallas.
27:11
Let's move D'Angelo Pawns right below Chris Johnson.
27:18
Yeah, D'Angelo Pawns is small, but I think he's really, really
27:20
good. What do you guys think about
27:23
Anthony Hill Junior? I know you're pretty high on
27:26
him. Does he?
27:27
Deserve to be a 24. Does he deserve to be a 24?
27:30
I think so I don't I don't like him too much lower.
27:33
I'd probably move Dude. I like Pregnon, but maybe I just
27:40
didn't. Maybe I was just too critical of
27:42
him when he was at Oregon. I know he's an Oregon guy.
27:46
I don't want to hype him up. Like I do think Siddiq and
27:49
Thanaman are Ballers. Pregnant was always.
27:55
I'm not going to talk about pregnant.
27:57
He is. It's too close to home, too
27:59
close I'm. Going to be honest I feel.
28:01
Fine, I'll do it. OK, I don't think pregnant is
28:05
better than Proctor. I don't think pregnant is better
28:09
than where's your guard on here? Steel and Rutledge is at 50
28:15
right now. Basantis is at 36.
28:18
Basantis is what I was thinking of.
28:20
I don't think pregnant is better than basantis but but here's The
28:23
thing is that big board wise guards do not get valued very
28:26
high. I think it doesn't matter.
28:29
It doesn't matter about value. It doesn't matter.
28:31
About value, personally it does. It's just about the.
28:34
Player. It's just about the player, it's
28:36
not about value. Well.
28:39
Do you guys want to move Dramod McCoy any higher than he is
28:41
right now? No, definitely not higher, but I
28:44
don't feel like hiding the platform to talk about him much.
28:46
I mean, we can make a few adjustments later, but I feel
28:49
like overall it's pretty solid right now it.
28:52
Is solid. Yeah, I do think Eli Stowers is
28:54
the second column guy. I think he was straight up
28:58
biting at shipping at Canyon City's heels that I would use a
29:04
would. You put him in the top 30.
29:06
Yes, at the bottom. Or would you put them out just
29:09
outside of the top 30? I'd say just out.
29:12
So do you think Jeremy Bernard or KC Concepcion is better?
29:16
I think Concepcion. I agree with that right?
29:20
I think that's pretty solid. Well, we'll make some
29:24
adjustments to it, but I think it's pretty good overall.
29:26
And I'll post this on a social media before the draft happens
29:29
so people can tell us how much we suck.
29:32
So let's talk about some draft stuff and really actually what I
29:36
want to talk about first before we get into that, and this is
29:38
related to the draft, let's talk about the Bengals and Giants
29:41
trade because I feel like that's worth talking about.
29:44
So the Bengals and Giants just made a trade with the Giants
29:47
sending Dexter Lawrence to the Bengals in exchange for the
29:49
number 10 overall pick in this year's draft.
29:51
Who do you guys think won the Bengals and Giants trade the
29:54
Giants? It's almost as if the Bengals
29:57
had a first round talent edge, right?
30:00
Or defensive lineman. It doesn't really matter what
30:01
position, defensive lineman on their team.
30:05
And then they just didn't have him anymore.
30:06
They just let him leave and then let everybody else leave.
30:09
I don't get what the Bengals were doing.
30:11
I said Giants win just because the Bengals don't know how to
30:14
manage. And they paid him more.
30:16
They paid him money that they weren't willing to pay to Trey
30:18
Hendickson. Yeah.
30:20
Nice. Just I'm so confused by this.
30:23
That's the first thing I said is that why are we, what are we
30:25
doing? What are the Bengals?
30:28
Doing I think the Giants won this trade because they got rid
30:31
of a player who didn't want to be there anymore and they got a
30:33
top ten pick in the NFL draft in return.
30:36
But the big reason why I think the Giants won this trade is
30:39
because both the Cowboys and the Giants have been heavily linked
30:42
to Sonny Styles and Caleb Downs. Well, there's been a lot of talk
30:45
about Dallas trading up to get one of those guys and using
30:48
their two first round picks at 12 and 20 to do it.
30:51
But now the Giants have come in and said, not so fast, Jerry,
30:55
we've got picks 5 and 10. So now the Giants have put
30:57
themselves in a spot where they can either outbid the Cowboys to
31:00
move up if they feel they need to, or they can potentially pick
31:03
both styles and downs before Dallas gets to make a pick.
31:07
And if that ends up happening, that is some genius level stuff
31:10
to keep those two players away from a division rival who they
31:13
knew wanted them. So I think the Giants won this
31:16
trade because of that reason. Going for both of us.
31:18
I mean, we have them as what, literally our top guys.
31:22
Our top two players. Are literally top 2.
31:24
So I mean, as far as we're concerned, yeah, if the Giants
31:28
go out and get those two guys. And they have Jackson Dart, a
31:31
quarterback. And CTE reincarnated himself.
31:36
CTE personified. Personified.
31:39
That's the right word. Thank you so much for your help.
31:42
You're welcome. You're welcome.
31:43
I'm just trying to think about all of the things the Bengals
31:47
are just fumble, I guess is the right word or like or like just
31:51
weird saying this like like drafting Shamar Stewart because
31:56
you need edge help. OK, he didn't pan out.
31:58
So what are we going to do? We're not going to resend drain
32:01
Hendrickson, one of the best edge rushers in the league.
32:04
OK, well, OK, he's going to leave to a team who tried to
32:08
sign a different edge rusher and then said he would didn't pass
32:11
the physical, send him back. OK, so we get this other guy
32:15
from the Bengals who doesn't want to be there.
32:17
And then what, you know, what we actually need is defensive line
32:19
help. So let's go ahead and go trade a
32:22
top pick for for defensive line help.
32:25
And I just this is just bad. I know I already said this.
32:29
I just this is just such bad management.
32:30
I can't I can't get over this. I just is Jim Harbaugh like a
32:38
wizard or something? Like is he doing this Just some
32:40
monuments of stuff to where Like if if Harbaugh is Jim right,
32:45
John? John.
32:47
John. Just John, it's John.
32:49
This is my bad. They're like J Harbaugh.
32:52
It's J Harbaugh. J Harbaugh.
32:55
If he was still in Baltimore, there's no way that Max Crosby
32:58
stuff happens. There's just no way he would not
33:00
allow it to happen. He but yeah, here he is making
33:04
just monumental trades. And you're right.
33:05
Well, it could be to out trade to outbid Dallas on any kind of
33:09
trade they want. I just, I'm just frustrated with
33:14
this Bengals organization. Drafting Shamar Stewart, I
33:17
thought was the first and last straw.
33:19
I didn't understand that. I don't understand how a whole
33:21
room full of adults that that claim to personally no ball
33:27
decided to pay Shamar Stewart. Don't understand that.
33:31
Because he had 1 1/2 sex what are you talking about?
33:33
1 1/2 sex. They probably missed the 1.5 and
33:37
thought it was 15. Probably it's the only way you.
33:40
Can overlook a decimal they're. Illiterate.
33:41
They're illiterate. It's the only way it makes
33:43
sense. That's Ohio for you.
33:45
Oh wait, Ohio people are not illiterate.
33:47
We have to say that because it's it's mean.
33:50
Yeah, I. My lawyer told me I had to.
33:52
He's whispering my other. Ear, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:58
All right, so I've got another question for you guys and it has
34:01
to, this is like an NFL draft prediction type of question.
34:04
So from 2016 to 2025, the first round of the NFL Draft averaged
34:08
5 1/2 trades. Now the number was lower over
34:11
the last two years, with four being made last year and five
34:14
being made in 2024. How many trades do you think we
34:17
see in the 2026 NFL Draft first round?
34:20
Is this is during the draft, not kind of when the training
34:23
happened? During the draft.
34:25
Oh, I think we see less than 5 and 1/2.
34:29
Was that the question? Did I answer the question right?
34:31
Yes. Any particular reason as to why?
34:34
Because people are doing it beforehand now we see a lot more
34:37
stuff beforehand and, and pre draft.
34:40
And I, I think that the illegal tampering period for free agency
34:45
has a lot to do with this. They were allowed to sign their
34:48
players earlier and so it moved the whole schedule of the
34:51
offseason up a bit. And so we're seeing more
34:54
movements now rather than on draft night.
34:58
There was a time where people weren't focused on that.
35:00
They weren't focused on the draft, but they weren't focused
35:02
on making these major trades as early.
35:06
And I think every single year as the technology gets greater, we
35:10
have more information at our fingertips earlier.
35:14
And so we already know these things.
35:16
We already know that. Was it Caleb Banks who has the
35:18
broken foot just had surgery like like that stuff that would
35:23
not be mass marketed like it was this year.
35:28
Maybe it would have been the last couple years, but this year
35:31
and even moving forward, it's just going to be more and more
35:33
with AI, with everything else coming in, we just have more
35:36
access to information at our fingertips to where we don't
35:38
need to make these blockbuster trades on draft nights because
35:41
we're just doing it beforehand. It's not about it's no longer
35:44
the spectacle of oh wow, this crazy thing happens.
35:47
It's it's a, hey, let's do this early.
35:50
That way we can plan ahead. We're trying to be better
35:52
planners. Except for the Steelers with
35:54
Aaron Rodgers. Because they're not planning
35:57
anything. They have no.
35:58
That is a bit of, I don't know, a bit of a bit of column maybe
36:02
column B, right? Rodgers won't commit.
36:04
Neither will the Steelers. And the Steelers, the last thing
36:06
we do is piss him off. And they're all saying Rodgers
36:09
wants to do is tell anybody what he's got going on.
36:12
He's immunized, right? Well, I just set you up.
36:16
I just set you up to talk about Will Howard, and you didn't
36:19
mention him one time. Silent Assassin.
36:24
Silent Assassin. So silent, so quiet.
36:29
I'm bummed out here in playing time.
36:31
Will's upset that Aaron Rodgers didn't get hurt, Yeah.
36:35
Yeah, I mean, we said the same thing.
36:37
You just said the quiet part out loud.
36:38
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, maybe he just could
36:41
have sucked really bad. And they're like, will get in
36:43
there, get in there. Real bad all.
36:51
Right. Do you guys have any predictions
36:53
for what's going to happen during the NFL Draft?
36:55
I think Fernando goes number one.
36:59
That's my, that's my OK. That's a.
37:00
That's a pretty solid bet. I think we miss a draft pick.
37:04
I think time expires on somebody and we and somebody's picks gets
37:08
skipped. So they've lowered the time from
37:10
10 minutes to 8 minutes. And so they don't have they,
37:14
they're missing 2 full minutes, which I think is another reason
37:17
as why we're seeing trades now rather than draft night.
37:20
Because to get a trade finalized within now you're making these
37:23
deals beforehand. But to get fully finalized and
37:27
pushed through in 8 minutes is not a lot of time.
37:30
And so I, I do think that that we're going to get some GM who
37:34
didn't know the rule changed, just like Rick Robert Riviera
37:37
who didn't know the game to end of the tie a little bit like
37:40
there was what, 5-6 years ago because I was going to end of
37:43
the tie someone wasn't, they were too busy with other
37:46
responsibilities. And when it finally happens and
37:50
I could see this like. That happened.
37:54
Oh, I'm thinking of Donovan McNabb from like 15 years ago.
37:59
Yeah, that also happened then. Also, what?
38:02
Like, dude, I knew that. Like besides knowing that they
38:06
can end in a tie just by playing Madden and looking at the
38:09
records, I mean, like, Oh yeah, they tied a couple times.
38:13
Dude. There's been big headlines of of
38:17
important people in football making the mistake of saying I
38:21
didn't know a game could end in a tie For you to say that, Like
38:24
you can't still be saying that. It's happened too many Times
38:27
Now. Where?
38:29
I could see this being like teams that have multiple picks
38:33
in the first round, they have Browns, the second Browns pick
38:35
in the first round, I think they've got 2, right?
38:38
I can see that that going them submitting the pick at like 8
38:43
minutes and 10 seconds. Like what do you mean the pick
38:45
is I can't pick. What are you talking about?
38:48
Because everything else goes so smoothly.
38:50
Now I'm just picking on the Browns because the Browns.
38:51
But like, but like in reality, I feel like that's going to be an
38:55
issue. I could be totally over my skis
38:57
here but but it's it's two last minutes which is not
39:00
insignificance. So if you don't if you don't
39:03
pick someone, do you just forfeit your pick or does it go
39:07
to as far as I understand auto auto draft and it just.
39:10
Takes the next. Drive on the on the on the big
39:12
board. Believe it works.
39:14
Because I think I don't remember what year it was, but I think
39:16
this. Happens alphabetical, just the
39:18
last name. I think this is like a one year.
39:22
I think this happened to the Ravens one year where they
39:24
missed their pick and then the next team just got to go, but
39:28
the Ravens still could have gone after that team, but then they
39:31
missed their pick again and they missed it like 3 or 4 times in a
39:34
row or something like that. And the teams that were behind
39:37
them just got to pick until the Ravens actually made a pick.
39:41
So I don't, I don't know, I don't know how far out, I don't
39:46
know how far you're allowed to take that.
39:48
Like can you just, can you just keep moving back as far as you
39:51
want? I don't know how far you can do
39:53
that. We want to move.
39:54
Back. But nobody wants to trade us so
39:57
we're just going to wait. You know what we want our guy
40:00
we're not talking about what where they have 14 we're not
40:02
going to pick 14. We want him at 20 Nobody wants
40:05
to trade us. We'll wait you.
40:07
You should, technically. Technically, you should be able
40:09
to do that. I'm imagining like, you know,
40:11
you're in line to go to a concert.
40:13
You got your ticket ready. Everyone's going in your
40:15
tickets, not, you know, fully ready.
40:17
And you're sitting there fumbling through and like, OK,
40:19
well, as soon as you get it ready, let me know.
40:20
Otherwise, we're letting other people in.
40:22
And you should technically be able to sit there.
40:24
You've waited in line. You're there as soon as you're
40:27
ready to give them a name, like, go ahead.
40:30
It's your pick. It's just a real bad.
40:33
Work for organization. I, I wish they would now if they
40:40
didn't punish the players, I wish they would just remove the
40:43
pick. But that's the problem is that
40:44
it, that it punishes the players where there's only 31 picks in
40:48
the first round now 32 so that I'm against.
40:52
I was pretty big on the, the Ravens should have their first
40:55
round pick removed because of this whole Max Crosby thing.
40:59
I've been talked out of that because that hurts the players
41:02
more than the tape. They need to keep Max crowd.
41:05
They need to keep not having Max crowds.
41:06
Me and whatever I'm more on the side of.
41:08
They should have to pay his contract anyway, but that's not
41:10
the point. It looks like it was the 2011
41:13
Baltimore Ravens that that happened to.
41:16
And also see it happening not day one because there are teams
41:19
that don't have picks until like the late second round and the
41:22
second, second and third rounds and in the 4th through 7, they
41:26
also have shorter times. And so like the Jaguars don't
41:29
picked up 56, the Broncos don't picked up 52, Falcons don't
41:33
pick. Now it's out 48.
41:34
I can see one of them. Just like I sleep at the wheel.
41:37
I'm so curious, Like how I'm just thinking of Tyler Sprague
41:41
and Brandon Lavoe, those those Ravens fans.
41:45
I'm just imagining. Some shout out names.
41:51
Big time dog sing energy right now.
41:53
I'm just a real quick, sorry this to cut you off, but we
41:57
shooted our way through French class our second our sophomore
42:01
year because it was miserable. So there's that side by side.
42:06
In here I. Was there, We didn't sit side by
42:08
side. No, we, we were there.
42:11
I probably had to actually do work and stuff.
42:13
You did. You did anyway.
42:17
Yeah, but I'm just imagining them watching the draft and
42:20
being like, what the hell is going on?
42:24
Here's then I wonder who we're going to get?
42:26
Actually, nobody. You're not going to get anybody.
42:29
No one. Was in the office tonight.
42:32
Yelling at your TV. They keep showing the warm
42:35
people look like they're working.
42:37
No one's actually working. It's the March Madness box
42:40
button on CBS. Your boss comes around, puts a
42:43
bunch of fake spreadsheets under the screen.
42:45
Oh look, we're doing stuff. Just in there watching.
42:47
Avery, did you apologize to your dad?
42:49
Sorry Dad, I think I cussed a couple times.
42:52
I didn't actually recognize that you cussed, which is a me
42:55
problem like I understand. It wasn't really It wasn't.
43:00
It was. I think I said hell.
43:02
Yeah. Oh, does that count?
43:04
It's in the Bible. I put that as AC list.
43:08
That's AC list word like. Here, I'll tell you.
43:11
I'll tell you why it doesn't count, because I'll say hell,
43:15
that's why it doesn't count. That's true.
43:17
It's just Joel, it's all approved.
43:18
Doesn't. You got a dirty mouth, Joel, but
43:20
you're a foreigner and that's normal for you.
43:22
In Australia it's not a bad word, so I say that all the time
43:25
and I don't care. Word America.
43:32
For now anyways, what do you guys say we do?
43:34
Quick top 15 and a film out draft.
43:37
Sure, Doug, let's do it. Probably the PFF mock draft
43:39
simulator. I did.
43:41
I knew it. You already haven't queued up.
43:43
That's how much I knew it. Good gal, I crushed this. 1.
43:47
I mean, Fernando, right? It's got to be.
43:50
I should have just had that one done already before I even
43:52
shared my screen with you guys. All right, who are The Jets
43:55
taking to #2? Hi.
43:57
If I hope they pick David Bailey because they're The Jets and I
44:01
just want them to not have. I don't want them to have
44:05
success. I don't think they deserve it.
44:08
What do you? Guys make of The Jets cancelling
44:10
their top 30 visit with David Bailey.
44:13
Do you think that means that they're not going to pick David
44:15
Bailey? It's possible I.
44:20
Did she just say no, they're not?
44:22
Yeah, that's why I mean, myself, it is bedtime.
44:26
It is bedtime in the Olson residence.
44:28
And if you have kids, you understand that means someone's
44:31
going to yell that for sure because they should be in bed
44:36
and they're not, and that is the problem anyway.
44:38
I'm sorry, what was the question?
44:40
Can you please rephrase? What do you what do you make of
44:43
The Jets canceling their top 30 visit with David Bailey?
44:46
Oh, we're at a point now To where?
44:48
To where? What else are they going to
44:49
learn from it? What else they need to know from
44:51
him? They've met with him probably a
44:53
few times already. They probably communicate via
44:55
with his agents a lot. What more information are they
44:59
going to gain from talking to him?
45:00
I personally feel like this pic is going to be Arville Reese.
45:04
I think he's going to be Arville Reese.
45:06
I think they finally make the correct pick and then everyone
45:09
forgets about the fact that their covers are sleeping the
45:12
combine. He was watching.
45:15
No, the scouts were watching. Not him, the scouts.
45:18
Were watching, that is their actual job so it's fine.
45:21
OK, so the Cardinals at 3, this one, I, I truly have no idea
45:24
what they're going to do. I feel like they're going to
45:26
trade out of the pick, but if they stay put, I don't know who
45:29
they're going to pick. They're going to take Ty
45:32
Simpson. They would.
45:34
Not a three or not you think they would.
45:36
They'd probably take Ty Bailey, David Bailey.
45:40
What trades? Oh, Daniel?
45:42
So what trades are available? Oh, it doesn't allow us to do
45:45
trades because you see, it's locked right here because you
45:48
have to pay for it, apparently. Oh.
45:51
All right, Do you guys think that Jeremiah love to the Titans
45:53
hype is real? I do.
45:57
You know why I think it's real? Because this is a thing that's
45:59
been said too many times over. The Titans are going to feel the
46:02
peer pressure and just do it anyway.
46:04
Do it because this is what everybody thinks they're going
46:06
to do. Oh, and then you thought we were
46:07
going to do it, so we might as well just do it.
46:09
So I that's that's my take on this.
46:12
Remember that last time they drafted a good running back?
46:15
Remember that. Remember that.
46:16
Remember that. One time he was very good for
46:18
them. He was their only offense.
46:20
Still is very. Long time.
46:22
Literally. I just, I don't understand how
46:29
the Titans could think that they have the roster and the
46:33
offensive line to draft Jeremiah Love.
46:35
Their offensive line is not good.
46:37
You don't have the offensive line to draft Jeremiah Love with
46:40
the number four overall pick. Sure, you can do it.
46:42
I don't know if it's going to go well because your offensive line
46:45
is not good. I just don't think the Titans
46:46
are in a position to draft Jeremiah Love at the number four
46:49
overall pick, but they might do it anyway.
46:52
Paul didn't do horrible last year, right?
46:54
I mean, they have two guys who are capable, but neither of them
46:57
are elite running backs, right? And I think this is a contract
47:01
here for Pollard. So I think they, I think they
47:03
make that pick. OK.
47:06
All right. For me, with the Giants at five,
47:09
I would go Sony styles. Yeah, Sony styles.
47:12
OK, where do the Browns go with the number six pick, Maui Noah?
47:16
You know what, if there was a place for Ruben Bane to go, I
47:20
feel like it might be the Browns.
47:24
Unfortunately, I think, I think Ben goes at to seven in
47:27
Washington, but that's a main thing.
47:28
I don't know, Caleb Downs could go there.
47:31
Has the balls to draft Caleb Downs.
47:34
Why? Neither the Browns.
47:41
All right. Let's just say I drive a 1993
47:45
Geo Metro, OK? I don't know.
47:47
Let's just say I do. I I can drive up to the gas
47:52
station and put premium gasoline in that bad boy.
47:55
I can do it. I can pay the extra dollar plus
47:57
a gallon for premium gasoline, or I can continue to put the
48:03
trash in my trash and we can just be trash until we die
48:07
together. There's no way they have the
48:09
balls to draft the guy that they need to draft.
48:12
That's why Maui Noah goes now and he is.
48:15
They try to get Joe Thomas. It doesn't work.
48:17
Now we know it's terrible, and then Reuben Bain goes next
48:20
because they're trying to fill the hole, and then Bobby Wagner
48:23
just basically kicks the guy off the team because he's terrible
48:26
with short arms. All right, All right.
48:28
Wagner's not on the roster currently.
48:30
He will be premonition all. Right.
48:34
So we're going now. We know.
48:36
I think that's the right thing. I also don't think the Browns
48:39
would draft Freeling there because they're the Browns.
48:42
Hauser don't think they would draft Venga.
48:44
Huana. Crushed it every single time.
48:46
Never said it wrong one definitely.
48:48
Definitely not they. Would draft him there either.
48:52
Venga Yohani. That's.
48:54
What I said. It's not that hard.
48:59
It's really not that hard. It's really not hard.
49:04
I will be later. Shout out to be buying Reese
49:11
huh. We have gone off the rows and I
49:23
cannot say help by saying this is my fault.
49:26
Somehow shout out to my wife give him.
49:29
Reuben. Give him Reuben.
49:31
Reuben Bain. I also don't hate a man's sort
49:33
of lane pick here. I hate it for the Rams, but I
49:37
don't hate that pick here. I think they would go Caleb
49:39
Downs before they go Dulane. Yeah.
49:42
It's between Bain and Downs for me.
49:44
I think they pick Bain so that the.
49:47
Saints pick downs. I just feel like Downs is going
49:52
to Washington. I feel like he is too.
49:54
If he's there at 7:00, I think he goes there.
49:56
Yeah, I agree. Or the Giants move back up to
49:58
get him. And this is where I think Reuben
50:01
Bain would go to the Saints at 8:00.
50:03
Yeah. Yeah, the draft boards.
50:08
Holy heck. What?
50:10
How? What did you call them?
50:11
Cinnamon. Cinnamon.
50:13
That's. What I said, we're saying the
50:17
same words, guys. That's what he said.
50:19
That's. What he said, that's what he
50:20
said. Cinnamon.
50:21
That's what we're all saying. Do you think that they do you
50:24
think they pick? That's like, that's like when
50:27
Americans say aluminum and everywhere else in the world
50:30
they say aluminium. Aluminium.
50:33
Apparently it's a. Apparently it's another word I
50:37
got. I I told my boss he's British
50:39
and I'm like, you're going to say aluminium?
50:40
He's like, it's a different word.
50:42
And like it's a different word. You mean it's a different
50:44
spelling of the same word? He's like, yeah, which is so
50:48
dumb. Aluminium, add an extra, add an
50:53
extra letter in there. I'm going to get worked up.
50:56
Let's keep going. Anyways, I feel like so do you.
51:00
Think they're going wide receiver?
51:01
Tate. I think they're going to end up
51:03
picking Tate. I was going to say, I feel like
51:06
they might go corner. Really.
51:09
Because they just started away. Yeah, I like how we both started
51:12
to talk and then stop talking and then they either of us said
51:15
his name. Trey Mcduffie's name crushed it
51:18
one. You did get one.
51:19
You got that one right. He's on my team now.
51:22
If you didn't get that one right, I would be very worried.
51:25
I I actually agree with you since since they Trey way
51:28
Mcduffie and that secondary probably needs help.
51:31
You know who doesn't? I don't hate a man sort of
51:34
delaying pick there. I also feel like Jermont McCoy.
51:38
I feel like Jermont McCoy might be in play.
51:41
Cheerful McCoy. I'm going to This is a mock
51:46
death. We can do whatever we want, he.
51:48
Cannot in good conscience say that oh, that means.
51:54
What giants are picking dynamite?
51:57
They. Don't they don't have the balls?
52:01
They're picking Tate. I think they would go receiver.
52:05
Because it clearly takes 25 months to recover from a knee
52:09
injury and so who knows when Malik neighbors will be back.
52:13
So it's like couldn't let it slip.
52:18
Going to like 1 episode by so yeah, I'm I'm going Tate.
52:23
Tate OK. Well.
52:24
Sadly, I think this is where Delane comes off the board.
52:26
I know why go, why go? Why go do I take?
52:30
Delane. I think the Dolphins would take
52:33
D'alene if he's there at 11. I.
52:34
Am less concerned about corner help now than I was say a month
52:40
and a half ago. Nothing.
52:41
I don't want a bright young corner on my team, I just am
52:43
less worried about it. Yeah, that's fair.
52:46
Also, I want the Dolphins to take the lane if this situation
52:49
plays out because I don't want Dallas to have them so.
52:52
True. I'm going to go to lane here
52:54
because I think. That's what they would do,
52:55
Dallas trading up to take 12 and 20 to go from 12:00 to 11:00 to
53:01
pick Dulane. I think they would try and trade
53:02
up like earlier in the draft though.
53:05
Yeah, that's fair. If the Giants don't get in their
53:07
way, I'm going to take Dulane here.
53:09
Would the Cowboys go Finaman? He's the best available
53:12
defensive guy. I yeah, probably.
53:16
The other option would be probably CJ Allen, maybe Akim
53:20
Mezador, Keldrick Faulk I've heard talked about with them.
53:24
So I. Don't know, don't hate Faulk
53:26
there, but it feels like a bit of a stretch.
53:29
It does. Especially with, you know when
53:31
they got picked 20 sitting back there.
53:32
I think they would go see them and.
53:34
I agree I don't have to like it, but I think that would be, given
53:37
the scenario, what they would do I'm.
53:39
Going to do it I will. What are the Rams doing?
53:43
Drafting another tight end, right?
53:45
Might as well. I'm just kidding, I.
53:49
I could honestly see the Rams taking Canyon Sadiq.
53:52
They are. They would take McKay lemon in
53:54
this scenario. They would take McKay lemon, no
53:56
doubt. I would rather they.
53:57
Literally just drafted. Didn't they just draft Sadiq's
54:00
the tight end above him on the depth chart from the previous
54:03
year? Yep, Yep, Fergus.
54:06
I did. Yes they do.
54:07
Rather than take Wenger, you wanna dude, every time.
54:11
I'm so good at that guy. You wanna?
54:13
You wanna? That's not yo, that's not what
54:16
they mean. Nay, yo my nuts.
54:19
I Elaine. Oh my gosh.
54:24
The Ravens don't get a pick, right?
54:26
That's what we decided. Yeah, yeah, they're gonna skip.
54:30
I think this would be Wenger. You wanna?
54:32
That makes me upset. Or.
54:33
Yeah, Genius AD. Because I don't have likely
54:36
anymore actually dangerous. He's.
54:39
I don't hate the Sadiq pick there because he would be.
54:43
Don't he? Would be likely.
54:45
You just want him at 15, Avery. Don't.
54:49
Well, don't stop. I think I.
54:55
Think it's the right move though.
54:57
It's between Joanna and Sadiq. I feel like you.
55:01
Guys take them. You guys take?
55:03
I feel like new head coaches, we don't want a splash name to come
55:06
in and you want it is not it, Unfortunately, it should be, but
55:10
it's not. And so I think they go Sadiq.
55:13
OK, sorry, Avery, get that? All right, Avery, if this was a
55:20
scenario, what do you think the Bucks are doing?
55:23
I get Mesador. I mean, they could trade back.
55:26
They should, they won't. I could honestly see them taking
55:28
Iwani, but I I actually think that I actually think there is a
55:32
strong, strong possibility that the Bucks are trading back.
55:36
I don't know why, I just feel like they are.
55:38
Yeah, I just hope they don't take one of those Utah boys.
55:41
Same dude. Iwani or Mesador or trade back?
55:45
I'm going to go Mesador. That was tough.
55:48
I didn't like that the last part.
55:51
Everything else was fine. All right, well, I'm excited to
55:54
see what happens with the NFL Draft this week and next week
55:57
we're going to be discussing our NFL Draft winners and losers.
56:01
And before we get out of here, I actually just want to say one
56:03
thing and we'll kind of mentioned it earlier, but I just
56:05
want to say that I think we all deserve a round of applause for
56:08
what we did with our scattering reports this year and our player
56:10
rankings because it was significantly better than it was
56:14
last year. This was our second season
56:16
talking about the NFL draft, and this year was so much better
56:19
than last year. We talked about over 50 players
56:21
in full detail. And to me, that's impressive for
56:24
a podcast that does one show a week and has four listeners.
56:28
And so thank you guys for being here with me, too.
56:31
Bye. Bye listeners.
56:35
Alex, is she listening now? Yeah.
56:38
And next year, next year we're we're bringing the actual
56:42
prospects on the show to talk about their strengths and
56:46
weaknesses and any bit of drama that we've dug up about them.
56:51
Past girlfriends leaked news. But we're going to wait, but
56:55
we're going to wait until the week before the draft to bring
56:57
out the drama. Though there's no other way to.
57:01
We're going to bring out rival position players and make shit
57:06
up and sorry dad and have them beef it out on live.
57:11
We're going to have it. Live to.
57:13
What Every prospect. Of the draft, It'll basically be
57:17
the draft before the draft. It'll be the whole green room
57:19
