• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Richard Sherman podcast. And we got the
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: first round of the draft complete. It's time to tell
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: you our thoughts about it. Mitchell. There was some surprises
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: in some expected picks, But what was your favorite?
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Richard?
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: It was an exciting draft to watch. Pittsburgh was rocking.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: I think they set in attendance record. I've gone on
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: note the previously. This is my favorite night of the year,
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: the off season, you know, in full swing the NFL draft,
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: people's dreams being made. My favorite team, and I like
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: what the New York Giants did Richard, with you know,
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: a lot of draft capital. Two picks in the top ten.
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: I think they got a lot better today. There's some
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: other teams that got better as well. But you know, Richard,
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: before we dig deeper into this, we saw a new
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: revised model with the draft. They moved it to eight minutes,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: and I got the bet a lot earlier than I
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: normally have in these first rounds. Like, do you think
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: that's the way of the future for them? Do you
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: think they've done things right the NFL with how they've
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: structured this draft.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they've done it right. I don't like,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, you've You've spent months and years researching and
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: doing all your homework on these kids.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Be ready to do your pick, Be ready to put
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: your pick in. So I like it.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I know that teams want to trade, and you know
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: things happen that trade people's draft boards.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: But I like it.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: The NFL is saying, hey, make your decision and let's
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: move on. You don't have time to sit here and
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: figure things out.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: You got to be prepared.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: And the most prepared teams are drafting well, they're drafting
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: quickly and getting the guy that they want.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: Richard, we saw some surprises on draft like and I
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: think the one that stands out most of both of
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: us and frankly the whole world is Tye Simpson going
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: thirteen to the LA Rams, who you know, our Super
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Bowl contenders. They got Matthew Stafford, one of the best
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: quarterbacks in the league, the reigning MVP. How do you
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: justify this pick, Richard? And how shocked are you that
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: they went Ti Simpson out of Bama.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I'm shocked that Tyz Simpson was drafted in the first round,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: and I'm even more shocked by the team because I
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: don't see how this helps them this year. I don't
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: really see how it helps them next year. Maybe it
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: helps them in the future, but I'm not even sure.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: This is the first round quarterback to begin with. And
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: now does he have a chance to develop great under
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Sean McVay and the way he coaches offense and coaches quarterbacks,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: No question about that. But this is the unnecessary pick
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: for a team that's expected to compete for the Super
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Bowl this year. You know, those kind of teams draft
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: guys that can help them. Now, they've done a great
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: job draft and defensive lineman to rush the quarterback. They
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: went out there and traded for Trent McDuffie, so they're
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: solidifying that defense. Could they have used on offensive lineman.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Could they have used a running back? Could they have
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: traded back and gotten more picks, Like, there's so many
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: different things they could have done. And then you see
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the press conference with Sean McVay and he did not
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: seem happy. You're talking about a guy who may compete
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: with stepson, and he seemed like he didn't even think
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: that should be a possibility. So it's a surprising pick.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: It's a head scratcher. And then you see the connection
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: between Les Snead and the kid's dad, and it's kind
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: of kind of screams nepotism, and you're like, so, why
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: did this kid get drafted? I mean, he's I think
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the fourth quarterback with less than sixteen starts to be
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: drafted in the first round, and none of them are
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: doing really well in the National Football League. I just
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: don't think this was a great pick for the Rams.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I think they could have gone a lot of different
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: directions and got a guy that's gonna help him this year.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Is he the QB of the future?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I guess he has to be now you
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: use first round capital on him, But it doesn't seem
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: like anybody's happy with it. I'm sure Matthew Stafford's fine
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: with it. He just got another extension, just had an
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: MVP season. He's fine. But for the Rams, for the fans,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: for the players, you just like, why.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: When you're trying to keep up with the defending Super
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks, this one is a head scratcher
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: to me. There was plenty of talent on the board.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I mean we've talked about, you know, their need at
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: wide receiver, maybe not right now, but in the next
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: year or two. With the Vontae Adams getting up there
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: in age. You saw Makay Lemon slip. That would have
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: been a great pick for the Rams. There's a number
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: of other guys that slipped. Ruben Bain, you know, if
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: you want to reenforce that D line, you know, and
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: make them even more strong on that D line. This
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: one just seems like a luxury pick. And they talked
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: about it when they traded for McDuffie and they were
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: able to secure that position of need, they viewed this
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: as a luxury pick and they treated it as such.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: And I just don't get it, rich I don't get it.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: They're going to Jordan Love route.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: They want to sit them behind Aaron Rodgers and let
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: them develop for two or three years. It's the same
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: thing they're doing with Tys Simpson behind Matthew Stafford. We'll
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: see if it pays out. But to me, if I'm
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: a fan of the La Rams, I'm definitely scratching my
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: head this morning and wondering what.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: Could have been. Richard.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: We saw some movement early in the draft. Jeremiah Love
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: goes three and then his teammate is running mate, Jadarium
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Price goes to your Seattle Seahawks. Let's start with Jadarian
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Price and Richard. I don't mean to tap my own
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: shoulders my own back here, but I put him on
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: my radar going into the draft. Is somebody who I
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: thought the Seattle Seahawks gun target.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: A Round one.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Here we are they pick him at thirty two. Jadarium Price,
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: what do you think he's gonna bring to Seattle? And
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: what do you think of this pick?
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I think it's a great pick.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Obviously they think this is gonna be the heir apparent
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: to your guy CA nine. This is their answer everybody
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: this whole offseason, like what are they gonna do now
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: that Canine's gone? This is an obvious answer from the
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. Obviously, Sharpna is still going to be in
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the mix. They still have other guys that they feel
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: really good about. But this is their what I would
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: expect them to think, this their their future. Would be
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: a great move for them, a great pick, a great spot.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Only the fourth time in the history of the National
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Football League that two running backs from the same school
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: have been drafted in the first round, So that's an
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: incredible accomplishment for Notre Dame. But I think it's a
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: great pick for the Seattle Seahawks. I think it solidifies
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: a strong position for the Seahawks. They're going to run
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the ball, They're gonna they're gonna play great defense. They're
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: going to use the same formula that they used last
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: season to have success this season, and this only goes
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: to reinforce that.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: I like it too, Richard. I mean, the reality is
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: they got Zach Charbonay coming off the ACL injury which
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: happened late in the season. I think the fans need
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: to be realistic with their expectations of him coming back
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: next year. And then they sign Emmanuel Wilson, who showed
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: you know, good flashes in Green Bay. I think he
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: could be a good player for them. The reality is
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: they needed to address this position. I think Jaderian Price
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: is a great player to fill that position. So for me,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: I think the Seattle Seahawks achieved in this draft. And
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: then we turn our focus to the other running back
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: that I got drafted, and that is Jeremiah Love Here
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Jadarian prices teammate going number three to division rival Arizona Cardinals. Richard,
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: it's early in the draft to be taken running backs,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: but Arizona, you know, I think they got somebody they
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: can build their team around.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: What do you think of this pick?
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Would you have picked Jeremiah Love at three if you're
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: the Arizona Cardinals.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I'm never in the camp that's picking running backs in
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: the top five. I think you can get them later.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I think they had James Connor, they felt good about him.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: They just picked up Tyler Aljiar they feel good about him.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Is Jeremiah Love way better than both of them? Potentially?
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: But is that making your team that much better? I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think a running back takes
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: you over the top win you have solid running backs. Now,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: if you don't have a solid back, you don't have
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: anybody exposive, then maybe that makes a difference.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: But you saw last year with the with the Raiders.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, you need more than a running back to
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: get your team going, like you need offensive linemen, you
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: need a good defense. So just drafting a running back don't.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: I don't. It wasn't a position of need. And I
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: know everybody's in the camp of best player available, best
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: player available, but I'm not in that camp. You draft
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: best player for the needs you have, and if the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: needs you have are great, and you think, hey, we
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: can move back, get more players, get more draft picks,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: then that's what you do. But I don't think you
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: ever pick a running back in the top five. It's
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: worked out a handful of times in the National Football League,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: but it's not the way I would draft.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: We'll see how it works out for the Cardinals.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's interesting because you know, the Detroit
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Lions drafted Jamier.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Gibbs early a couple of years back.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Obviously, we see Jean Robinson go early, and then we
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: see this kind of new wave of running backs going
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: going early and earlier, and now to be in the
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: top three for Jeremiah Love, this better pan out for
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: the Arizona Cardinals because he's gonna be the highest paid
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: running back in the league next year. There's a lot
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: of weapons in Arizona. You couple him with Trey McBride. Obviously,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: we saw an emergence from Michael Wilson this past season.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: And if Marvin Harrison Junior can figure it out and
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: be the top five pick and live up to his
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: top five billing, you know this team might have something there.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Do you see the Arizona Cardinals as being a quiet
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: contender in the NFC West at all.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I do I do not. I do not.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I see them as being just quiet. They're gonna just
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: be quiet, Mitchell. They're gonna be quiet, and they're gonna
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: skate by and you'll likely be picking in the top
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: ten again next year because of picks like this. Now,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: maybe this will help them later on in their future.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm totally wrong and I don't see the vision.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Maybe they're getting rid of James Connor, which would make sense.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, he was a really good running back. He's
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: had some injuries, but I think you to solidify that defense.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I think there were there were holes in that defense
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: that you need to get fixed for the future of
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: this program, in the future of this franchise, and picking
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love at three just doesn't make sense. That's a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: perfect that that could have been a gift that kept
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: on giving. That could have been the gift that got
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: you multiple first round picks and allows you to get
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: multiple players that can.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: Help you in that defense.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: But instead you get a running back that that may
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: or may not have a great season, may or may
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: not have an incredible impact. It depends on how great
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: that offensive line is, how good they can move people
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: out the way and create holes.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: That's not where I would went with.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: It, staying in the NFC West San Francisco forty nine
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: ers did not have a pick in the first round,
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: but they traded back twice. You know, they got some
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: extra draft capital in this draft, and they sit at
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: top of the first or top of the second round
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: on Day two. What do you think of this strategy. Obviously,
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: the Niners have a couple positions of need that they
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: need to fill, they pick up some extra draft capital.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: A lot of folks have talked about the tail end
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: of this first round, everyone kind of being in the
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: same bucket together, So it seems like a decent strategy
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: for the Niners. What do you think of how they
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: played out the first round.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Well, it seemed like they were comfortable if certain players
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: dropped to that spot. I think case conception was a
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: guy that if he would have dropped to twenty seven,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: they would have felt comfortable they would have picked him
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: up and.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: They would have stayed put.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: But obviously he went a lot earlier in the draft
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: than that spot, so they felt like they can still
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: get the guy that. They feel like they can still
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: get the guy they want and move back into the
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: second they don't have to have the fifth year option
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: with the guy, and that makes a lot of sense.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: That makes a lot of sense. If you don't think
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: any of the players after pick fifteen or first round
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: graded players, then you wouldn't necessarily want to have that
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: extra year of security with him. So it makes sense
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to move back into the second around and saves you
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: some money and salary cap. It saves you some headache
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: down the line, and provides flexibility to still get the
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: guy you want at the top of a second. Today's

  Speaker 1: and let's get this party started.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about the number one overall pick Fernanda Mendoza
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: to Indiana. Obviously, the Indiana Hoosiers last year, took the
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: world by storm, winning the College Football Playoff national title,
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: and for NANDL. Mendoza was at the forefront of that.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: I know you're not exceptionally high on his game, Richard,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: but what he was able to achieve at Indiana, a
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: football program that historically has never been a national title contender,
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: for them to take that and knock off the likes
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: of Alabama on his way to this national title, do
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: you not have any belief that for Nando Mendoza can
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: be the guy, you know, especially under Tom Brady's guidance,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: to you know, bring some life back into the Las
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Vegas Raiders organization.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Well, let's let's understand how much Tom Brady's involved. You know,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: if we're Tom Brady was involved with him last year
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: and they're picking number one in draft, So.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: It's not it's not all on Tom Brady.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: You know, at the end of the day, this football
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: team doesn't have a ton of talent, have holes at
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: a lot of positions, and they have to play better.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be It's gonna be interesting because he can
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: be a good quarterback. He's shown that with the great
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: supporting cast. He's not gonna have a great supporting cast anymore?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: So what can he do? That's why you get picked
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: in the number number one in the draft because that
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: team wasn't very good the year before. So it's gonna
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: be interesting to see how he operates without a great
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: supporting cast. Can he elevate the guys around him to
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: higher heights? And that's to be seen. Last year he
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: had threw forty one touchdowns six interceptions. Can he have
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: that kind of season with less of a supporting cast
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: at the receiver? You got asked in genty in the backfield.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: He got more comfortable as the season progressed, but he
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: wasn't great early on. There was a whole conversation about
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: his stands. Whether you know he's too low in his stands.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: He doesn't have the Michael Meyers stance that he had
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: in college. When he got back to that saw to
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: play a little bit better. But I just don't know.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: I don't I will well, I'm in a wait and
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: see mode, especially for quarterbacks in this league. Will they
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: allow him to sit behind Kirk Cousins and learn that
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: usually doesn't happen with the number one pick. But I
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: think that's the smart way to do things and we'll
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: see if that they agree.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Richard, I'll be honest with you, I don't know if
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: he needs that level of development. I think Kirk Cousin
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: is going to be more of a clipboard guy that's
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: going to be coaching him from the sidelines this year.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: I believe in Fernando Mendoz. I'm with you. I don't
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: think the Raiders have the weapons, especially on the outside,
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: but you know what I mean for what this guy
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: was able to achieve at Indiana last year, and the
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: most dominant run that they've had in school history by
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: far and away, and frankly, one of the more dominant
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: runs that we've seen in college football over the last
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: fifteen years. Richard, He's got Brock Bowers. I think Brock
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Baher is going to be fed the ball a lot.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: And I like Fernando Mendoza for the long haul. I
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: don't necessarily like them week one, you know, I don't
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: like this Raiders organization week one, but I like Fernando
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Mendoza for the long haul. With this organization, I like
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: the pick. I think the Raiders got themselves a winner
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: and someone that can lead this franchise into the future.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: Let's talk a little bit about the Tennessee Titans, Richard,
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: this team needed a ton of bodies in and they
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: end up landing on Carnell Tate, which doesn't shock me
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: at all. They needed a wide receiver, they need someone
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: to put with cam Ward. I think with Jeremiah Love
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: off the board, it made wide receiver a little bit
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: more obvious for them. But the question is it is
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Carnel Tait another one of these top tier Ohio state
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: wide receivers that we've seen come off the boards in
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: recent years. Richard, what are your thoughts on this pick
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: and your thought on Carnell Tate's game.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: It's just boring, you know, I don't see it as exciting.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: You know, we talking about a guy who went number
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: four in the National Football League Draft this year and
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: wasn't the best receiver on his team. Like I just
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: I just don't get that. I don't I don't get
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: how you can go number four and you're not the
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: best receiver on your team.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: And maybe I'm wrong.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Maybe he's gonna be dynamic and do all these special things,
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't on tape. It's not anything flashy. If
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: you compare him to Jackson Smith and Jigbug, Chris Olave,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson. Would he compare what is he drafted ahead
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: of those guys in any draft? I don't think he is.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: And so that's the part that has me scratching my head,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: like at four, you had to get him at four.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: And maybe maybe I'm just a pessimist, Maybe I'm just
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: you know, back in my day, but I don't see
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: the number four pick. You usually at the top five pick,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: you see flashes, big flashes on tape where you're like,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: oh my god, this guy is a monster. This guy
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: is a generational talent. Will he be a good receiver
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: in the National Football League?
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I think so.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: I think he'll be He'll be fine, maybe a great
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: number two receiver, but I don't think a dominant number one,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: which you expect to get at the number four pick.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I don't see that. And I know he went to
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Ohio State, and Ohio State is known to be a
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: receiver factory and receiver receiver receiver, but just going to
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Ohio State isn't enough. Now, if this was Jeremiah uh,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: it just Jeremiah Smith and somebody said they're taking him
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: with number four pick, we wouldn't better. Eyelash at it. Yep,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: get him number two, number three, number four, number one.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: You know, some people would say he probably could have
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: went number one in this draft. But I just don't
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: see the same excitement for Carnell Tait. I think, I
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: don't know. It just felt like they did it just
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: because you know, he's the receiver on the board, the
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: the top receiver. Jordan Tyson has injury issues, casey conception,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: there's question marks around him. So they needed a receiver
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and they said, hey, this is this is I guess
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: is the guy.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: I guess.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: I guess too, Richard WARDO, It's a wait and see
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: with me for Carnel Tate, and I let you hit
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: the nail on the head. Jeremiah Smith was the best,
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: best wide receiver, best football player on that team for
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: Ohio State last year.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: But we'll see.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: The Titans are desperately needy for skill position players and
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: hopefully this works out for them. They compare him with
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: cam Ward the Chiefs. Richard picking in the top ten
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: the Kansas City Chiefs. Holy cow, who would have thought
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: that they end up trading up with the Cleveland Browns
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: move from the nine spot to the sixth spot only
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: give up a third and a fifth to jump three spots.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: That's kind of head scratching. They end up with Mansur
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Delaine out of LSU. Obviously, I know you like his game,
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: but let's talk a little bit about the business of
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: football behind this move. The Kansas City Chiefs are in
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: desperate need of a cornerback, losing Jalen Watson and McDuffie
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: in this offseason, both to the Rams, so obviously they're
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: going to be targeted a corner. Do you like the
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: idea of jumping up three spots, leveraging a little bit
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: of draft capital to move up and get Mansur Delaane
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: for the Kansas City Chiefs?
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I like that a lot. I think he
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: fits a spag scheme. They're gonna run a lot of
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: man man coverage. That's a lot of what he ran
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: at LSU. That's what they dealt with in sec. He's
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: a hand and glove fit for what they want to do.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: They moved up to get him because he was the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: top corner in this draft, and I think it's gonna
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: be a phenomenal fit. I think that's the guy they wanted.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: They didn't have to give up a ton to get him,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: and they got him. He improves their ball club feels
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: an obvious need, a huge gaping void at the cornerback
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: position after losing your two starters. Will he be targeted
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: some being a rookie, no question about it. But I
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: think this is the spot, this is a scheme, this
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: is the right fit for him, and so I think
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: this is one of the best picks of the draft,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: one of the best picks at the top of the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: top ten in the first round.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't mind the pick from a need perspective,
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: but I just think about the Kansas City Chiefs and
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: I think about what they're lacking a little bit of,
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: you know, obviously an aging Travis Kelcey, and they're really
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: only safety blecket blanket on the wide receiver side of
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: things is Rashi Rice. I think with Jordan Tyson staring
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: at them in the face, that could be another weapon
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: for Patrick Mahomes to just tip the scales for this
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs organization into the future. So if it
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: was me, I don't mind the pick, but I would
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: have steered towards Jordan Tyson. Nonetheless, while to see the
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Chiefs picking in the top six of this draft. On
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: the other side of that is the Cleveland Browns, who
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: obviously had a need for the offensive line position. They
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: specifically target to target a tackle and they end up
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: trading back and tinker Spencer Finot out of Utah. Do
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: you think the Cleveland Browns did the right thing and
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: moving back here picking up a little bit extra draft capital.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that was the guy that we're going
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: to pick at six. So if they could get him
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: at nine and they felt comfortable with that, I think
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: may they could have got a little bit more draft capital.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: They could have squeezed the limit a little bit more
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: than they did. But they were able to get the
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: guy that they were going to target at six and
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: get draft capital. It's a win win for them. And
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: then they were able to get Casey Conception later on
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: in the draft, and I think they feel really good
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: about his explosiveness and what he can do in the
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: punt return game and things like that. So I think
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: that's a win win. They got more explosive on offense,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: they got a big time protector, future franchise tackle. I
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: think in any world, you feel really good about that.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Let's talk about Jordan Tyson.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: We already talked a little bit about him earlier, but
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: he goes to the Saints at eight a little bit
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: of a surprise given you know, even the analysts are
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: talking about how good of a player Jordan Tyson is,
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: how he would be regarded as a top talent at
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: the wide receiver position on that board if it won't
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: for his injuries. He battled hamstring injuries throughout college. But
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: he goes to the Saints and the Saints are young.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: You know, they drafted Tyler Shuck last year. They've got
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: They're partnering him up with a number of other solid
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: pieces there. Travis Etn Chris Olave, what do you think
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: of Jordan Tyson to the Saints and what do you
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: think of the Saints overall? They're finally past being in
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: cap held in purgatory. They were pushing everything to the
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: future with all this dead money cap hits, and here
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: we are they're finally out of that. Do you think
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: that the light at the end of the tunnel is
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: going to yield success for this New Orleans Saints team
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: this year?
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I mean maybe maybe. I think they're starting to build up.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I think they they they're really high on Tyler Shaw
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: higher than I probably would be, but Kellen Moore surrounded
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: him with weapons. Now you put Jordan Tyson, you got
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: the injury concerns, but he's an incredible weapon went on
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: the field. He's an incredibly explosive receiver. He's gotten comparisons,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: uh to Marii Cooper and Odell Beckham junior. And if
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: he can live up to those kind of expectations and
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: those kind of comps, then they've got a heck of
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: a pick. They've already got Chris o'lave and what he
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: can do with that offense. If they can get some protection.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Tyler Shust showed flashes last year. If he can be
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: consistent throughout the season, we'll see. We'll see what they
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: can do in New Orleans. I mean, the NFC South
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: has always kind of been, uh, you know, up and down.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: It's it's been kind of middle to pack up. Anybody
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: can win it, and last year it was a perfect example.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: It's always up for prea And that's why I say
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: I like this team.
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: I liked what they've done.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: They're they're finally you know, out of this cap situation
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: that they've been in for years, and you see it
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: they're adding Travis etm We'll see what they do with
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Alvin Kamara, but Tyler Shark, it seems like they got
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: a guy that they trust surrounding him with weapons. I
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: think the snate Saints could sneak up on this division
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: at least and win it and sneak into.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: The playoffs that way. But we shall see.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: The Dallas Cowboys were another team with two first round picks,
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: and Caleb Downs slips to them at twelve, which is
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: it's a great fit for them, and then they had
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: to taking Malachi Lawrence, the edge rusher out of UCF
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: later in the first What do you what do you
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: think of the Cowboys draft picks this year? There was
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: so many question marks surrounding this team last year trading
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: away Micah Parsons. Fast forward a year later. I really
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: like where the Dallas Cowboy organization is sitting, and they've
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: got an influx of young talent on the defensive side
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: of the ball.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: What do you make of these picks, Mitchell.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: They've done a really great job of solidifying their defensive
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: line with Quinn Williams and Kenny Clark, so you you
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: kind of see what they were doing. When when when
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: you they start to try to replace the production of Michaeh.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Parsons.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Then you got Rashwan Geary coming from Green Bay, which
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: is which is hilarious. Uh, you know, changing space is
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: kind of deal. But to continue to solidify that defense
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: with with Caleb Downs at safety now and Malachi Lawrence,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be a really great attacking defense. They've been
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: great on offense. They've been able to put up points
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: and put up yardage with the best of them. The
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb and Dak Prescott and George Pickens obviously came
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: into the team last year. Is on the franchise tag.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: They can put up points, they can score Now, if
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: they can stop people and attack and rush the passer
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: at a high level, I think this becomes a much
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: more dangerous Dallas Cowboys team and you start to see
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: the vision they had when they did decided not to
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: pay Michael Parsons and take the draft capital. But can
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: it lead to a super Bowl? That's always the biggest question.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Can this lead to a super Bowl for the Dallas Cowboys,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: because that's the end goal. If Green Bay and Green
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Bay didn't have a great season, but they would into
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: the playoffs and Dallas Cowboys didn't, So it looks like
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Green Bay's winning on the trade from that front in
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: the first year. If the Dallas Cowboys can somehow get
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: to an NFC Championship, get to a Super Bowl, get
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: out of the Divisional, you start to feel like maybe
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys long term plan and vision was correct
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: in this situation. But it's still wait and see.
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: It is, but it does. It's starting to make a
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: lot more sense. Jerry Jones, who would have thunk Richard.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about another team in that same division. The
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: New York Giants the beneficiaries of two top ten picks,
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: you know, obviously trading Dexter Lawrence for the number ten
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: pick from Cincinnati Bengals to utilize that pick to take
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: take Francis Mauioga out of Miami, and then they get
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: rvl Rits Reese who slides to them at Ohio State.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: They get another edge rusher, and this team is loaded
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: on the edge. Obviously, the New York Giants have their
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: identity and that's on the defensive front.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: Seven.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: You couple Rvel Reese with Abduall Carter, with Kevon Thibodeau
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: with Brian Burns.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: It's starting to look like the New York Giants teams
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: of old. What do you make of this draft strategy
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: by the New York Giants?
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: Do you like it?
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: I would love it if it if it's productive. You know,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Abduall Carter didn't have the production that that maybe everybody
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: hoped for when he was drafted and early in the draft.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I think on paper, it looks incredible, it looks menacing,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: it looks like they're gonna harass quarterbacks. But even with
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Dexter Lawrence and and all those guys, it wasn't living
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: up to the hype that that that you would have
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: you would have thought with how great it looks on paper.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: So maybe with a new coaching staff, a new scheme,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: it'll come through better.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: But I'd like it.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: I like investing in pass rushers. I think that's a
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: way to the super is continue to have great pass rushers.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: We've seen it with the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: We saw it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: With with the Kansas City Chiefs and Chris Jones and
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: all those guys getting to the quarterback. We've seen it
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers kind of blitzed Patrick Mahomes
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: in that Super Bowl. They were getting to the quarterback,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: they were abusing those tackles. But you got to put
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: it on tape. You got to actually execute. Now, Abdiel
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Carter will be better in his second year. Brian Burns
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: had an incredible season last year. Kayvon Thibodeau has been solid.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: But all of them on the field at the same time,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: you have to get real production. You're talking about four
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: or five sacks of game and can they do that.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure. You got to put it on tape.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: It looks great on paper.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: This looks like a phenomenal pass rush on paper, but
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Super Bowls and games aren't won on paper.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: They're won on the field. So they got to put
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: it on tape.
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: If this works out for the Giants. So, I mean,
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: you've seen the identity from John harball trickle into this team,
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: right They're they're dressing the big bodies up front. You
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: get the offensive tackle out on Miami Maioa and rbl Reese.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: I love what John Harbrough is bringing to this New
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: York Giants organization. They desperately needed an influx of talent.
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: We'll see if it pays off for them.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: I really am high on John Harble with the Giants.
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: One of the wilder stories that we saw was McKay
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: lemon right out of USC. He's on the phone allegedly
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: with the Pittsburgh Steelers and they're telling him they're.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Going to draft them. Well, not so fast.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: The Philadelphia Eagles swoop in and pluck him from the
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: Grasp.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: Mkay Lemon slipped in this draft. A lot of folks
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: had high hopes for him. What do you make of
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: this pick?
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I mean it's it's again another solid pick. There were,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: you know, people who love mackay Lemon. There's people who thought,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: you know, he may be an early second round pick.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: So we'll see how he pans out. Really productive at USC.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: This is a very interesting situation. I think every year
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: the draft never ceases to amaze or surprise you. Something
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: new happens in the draft just about every year, and
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: this was definitely new. For a guy to be on
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: the phone with a team, you know, feeling like he's
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: living out his dream and realizing, hey, he just got drafted,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: and for another for his family members and agents to
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: come up to him mid conversation and tell him, hey,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: you just got picked by another team.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: It's different.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Then the Pittsburgh Steelers are forced to go an entirely
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: different direction. There are rumors that they just auto picked
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: a tackle after him, a guy they didn't really want,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: clearly because they thought they got Makay Lemon. So it's
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: to draft, it's to draft. We'll see how it works
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: out for Philly. We'll see what this means for AJ Brown.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: There was already conversation that it's already a sign and
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: steal delivered deal to the New England Patriots, who who
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: are going who had a really interesting draft already, and
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: they're gonna have an interesting third day at a draft
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: because their head coach isn't going to be there for
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: personal reasons apparently.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: But I think I.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Think this is a good move for the Eagles, solidifying
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: that receiving core and obviously insurance in case they lose
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: a J.
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: Brown. Yeah.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: I like it as well, And it's got to be
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: tough to see for the rest of the division. And
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: more more head scratching with that is the fact that
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: we saw an indivision trade. The Philadelphia Eagles traded with
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: the Dallas Cowboys to move up and take that pick.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: We'll see if it works out.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: And Rich, I got to ask before we wrap up,
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: what was your favorite pick of the first round.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: I still think it's Kens City Chiefs Monsieur Delaine. I
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: like defense. I like a great corner. He was the
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: top corner pick this year, multiple picks, I mean eight
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: picks in college. I think he fits his scheme well.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to be another dominant coin for
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: I like, yeah, I'm I'm with you. I like the
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: position of need fit. Again, if I were them, I
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: would have gone Jordan Tyson. I personally favorite Caleb Downs.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: Loved the pick. He slid to them off the Giant
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Era all the way to the twelve pick with the
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: Cowboys desperately needed them. Love the pick. And then finally, Rich,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: who do you think won the first round of the draft?
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: I guess I would say I would say the Giants.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: You know, anytime you solidify your offensive and defensive line,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: that's where championships are won. It's in the trenches. We've
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: talked about this before. They did a great job of
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: making sure that they found foundational pieces in that draft.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: Does this make other guys available? Is Kaevon Thibodeau going
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: to be on the on the trade block potentially, or
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: or one of the other guys on trade block, I
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: would expect, so I would expect them to get some
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: calls for Kaevon Thibodeau, potentially Brian Burns. I don't think
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: they move on from him, but I always like when
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: you solidify the trenches, especially if you can do it
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: in first.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: We're sure that concludes that our recap of the first
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: round of the NFL Draft. We're gonna have a lot
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: more action this weekend, Richard, I will let you sign
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: us off, my man.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: As always, we appreciate you guys joining us. Hopefully your
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: team picked the guy you wanted if they didn't be
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: careful who you boo, because there were people in Houston
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: booing JJ Watts pick. There were people in Green Bay
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: booing Aaron Rodgers pick. You never know when you're picking
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: one of the best guys in your franchise's history. So
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: just wait and see how it all pans out. Because
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: sometimes you're overly excited about a guy that's not gonna
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: help you win any ball games. That's just how it
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: goes in the National Football League. But stay tuned. We
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: appreciate you joining us as always. You could be anywhere
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: in the world, but you hear with us.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: We will see you next time.
