- 3:25Speaker 2: the one I've had of field Days the most. I
- 3:30Speaker 2: know they have quite a few beers, but yeah, this
- 3:32Speaker 2: one is the one I reach for the most, and
- 3:35Speaker 2: I like it a lot.

- 3:40Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, oh man, all right, yep, it is

- 3:47Speaker 1: It's a West coast I know, I believe it's a
- 3:50Speaker 1: it's really foamy, so be careful.
- 3:51Speaker 2: It's you're poor, uh something contributing to the foam a
- 3:54Speaker 2: little bit. We are using our top cups tonight, mostly
- 3:58Speaker 2: because what won there awesome. And two when we got
- 4:02Speaker 2: our our order of top cups, they gave us quite
- 4:05Speaker 2: a few teams, not just the Vikings, and the Bears
- 4:08Speaker 2: are one of the teams. So friend of the show, Forest.
- 4:10Speaker 3: I appreciate you love me drinking of the Bears cup tonight.
- 4:12Speaker 3: I know it's it's it's a little painful, but appreciate
- 4:15Speaker 3: you playing along with us.
- 4:16Speaker 1: So don't worry. I'm gonna blur it out on the
- 4:18Speaker 1: video later.
- 4:19Speaker 2: It's okay content warning. It could have been the Packers Cup,
- 4:23Speaker 2: which may or may not make an appearance here later.
- 4:26Speaker 2: But I went really hard with this poor here.
- 4:29Speaker 1: You always do.
- 4:31Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to be careful with the with the
- 4:33Speaker 2: sculling it up.
- 4:34Speaker 1: All right, let's scroll it up. Don't spill on the
- 4:37Speaker 1: I'm just.
- 4:37Speaker 4: Not gonna move right schoolol hail, that's a delicious.
- 4:48Speaker 3: I p a solid, solid, solid.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Hazy West Coast. Yeah, I don't.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Know, six point nine percent, which is kind of a
- 5:00Speaker 2: on the higher end as far as.
- 5:01Speaker 3: The West coast West coast are usually around the six
- 5:04Speaker 3: five and a half six at the very minimum.
- 5:06Speaker 2: So if you're just having a couple of them, you're
- 5:08Speaker 2: still you're still going to be just fine, no headaches
- 5:11Speaker 2: the next day. If you have like a whole six pack,
- 5:13Speaker 2: that might be a different story. But yeah, I like logic.
- 5:17Speaker 2: I will reach for this many many more times.
- 5:19Speaker 3: Thank you forgetting it, field Day, keep making this.
- 5:23Speaker 2: This is good, all right.
- 5:25Speaker 1: So while we enjoy this first round of beers, we
- 5:29Speaker 1: decided we're going to play a little game.
- 5:31Speaker 2: Yep.
- 5:31Speaker 1: And it's a game that you've told me about a lot,
- 5:34Speaker 1: and I've never actually played myself, but I've seen slash
- 5:38Speaker 1: heard played on the Power Trip Morning show, and it
- 5:43Speaker 1: sounds like.
- 5:43Speaker 3: You've played this before, played it a few times with Austin.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Yeh, is that correct? So we're going to play the
- 5:49Speaker 1: initials game. And if you don't know how the initials
- 5:52Speaker 1: game works, I've got a stack of cards here.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Don't let us see it.
- 5:58Speaker 1: I'm not letting you see it. And we've got fourteen cards,
- 6:03Speaker 1: I believe, with two words on them, and the words
- 6:06Speaker 1: all start with a M in that order, which that's
- 6:10Speaker 1: your initials. Initials.
- 6:13Speaker 3: The game is rigged.
- 6:14Speaker 1: It's rigged. So I will give how many clues will
- 6:17Speaker 1: I give? I will give six clues in order, and
- 6:20Speaker 1: I think I have to wait a certain amount of time, right,
- 6:23Speaker 1: like a few seconds, a couple seconds. Yeah, So I'll
- 6:27Speaker 1: wait a few seconds, and then whoever guesses it, we'll
- 6:30Speaker 1: get a point, and then whoever has the most points
- 6:33Speaker 1: after twelve rounds wins. If we're tied after twelve, we've
- 6:36Speaker 1: got two tie breaker cards.
- 6:38Speaker 3: But after each clue, we can chime in.
- 6:41Speaker 2: And if we could chime in at any point right
- 6:43Speaker 2: in like mid so if we.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Get wrong, I mean, then they're out if you get
- 6:48Speaker 1: it right.
- 6:48Speaker 3: But you don't have to wait till the six clues too.
- 6:51Speaker 2: So if I were to chime in on like the
- 6:53Speaker 2: third clue and I got it wrong, forrest, you could
- 6:56Speaker 2: just you could just read off the next three clues.
- 6:59Speaker 3: And because every clue gets your build off it, and
- 7:02Speaker 3: then they get a little easier to identify what the
- 7:07Speaker 3: initials are.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Ye, all right, So final detail here before we play.
- 7:14Speaker 1: The steaks are pretty high, pretty high. The loser will
- 7:19Speaker 1: have to take a shot of malort out of a
- 7:22Speaker 1: packers tin cup top cup.
- 7:25Speaker 2: Sorry, yeah, so, and that shot will be poured by
- 7:29Speaker 2: the winner. But it's only a shot, now, I did
- 7:33Speaker 2: I did screw Evan over recently on our last one.
- 7:37Speaker 2: I didn't mean to, but it was a heavy pour
- 7:39Speaker 2: and I still feel bad about that.
- 7:41Speaker 1: All right, do we agree to the terms? Do we
- 7:43Speaker 1: have a pregame.
- 7:46Speaker 3: Shot malory?
- 7:47Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, it's all on.
- 7:48Speaker 1: We're friends gentlemen's agreement.
- 7:50Speaker 3: Huzzah.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Sorry I had to do that, all right. Are we
- 7:54Speaker 1: ready for round one? Yep, let's go for it, all right.
- 7:58Speaker 3: Initials A M.
- 7:59Speaker 1: A as in Austin, m as in Millort, which is
- 8:05Speaker 1: not my last name, but okay. Clue number one are filled.

- 8:28Speaker 1: considered to be a temporary arrangement. Number four often features

- 8:56Speaker 3: No gern planks here.
- 8:59Speaker 1: I think this last one will help you out. This
- 9:02Speaker 1: is used for sleeping, often for guests or.
- 9:05Speaker 3: While camping air mattress.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Oh, the point goes to Forrest.
- 9:11Speaker 2: All right, actually done, man, Forrest, you were not too

- 9:23Speaker 3: we're playing best of one.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Right, you know that would be interesting?
- 9:28Speaker 3: But no, okay, here we go.
- 9:30Speaker 1: All right. Round one went to Forrest air Mattress was
- 9:33Speaker 1: the correct guess. I feel like I feel like Ross
- 9:37Speaker 1: on Friends when he does the quiz show you hate friends, so.
- 9:41Speaker 2: I don't have friends.
- 9:42Speaker 3: I like the show.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I thought you didn't like friends.
- 9:44Speaker 3: You must have it.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Either I told you wrong or you're you're thinking of something.
- 9:47Speaker 1: I just feel like Ross on that one episode where
- 9:49Speaker 1: he creates the game show gets he gets really into it.
- 9:54Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, all right, that was a good show anyway.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Round number two, Round number two AM Clue Number one

- 11:19Speaker 1: the whole time.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 11:20Speaker 2: Does it? Does it make you think that we're just
- 11:22Speaker 2: idiots when you know the answer?
- 11:25Speaker 1: I've sat with you listening to the Power Trip play
- 11:29Speaker 1: this show, and I'm thinking to myself, what is it
- 11:32Speaker 1: only makes sense.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Now that I'm replaying all the clues. But definitely.
- 11:38Speaker 1: All right, we're all tied up one to one. We're
- 11:41Speaker 1: all tied up. It's fun to fun. Okay, who this
- 11:46Speaker 1: one might be? This one might be tough? A m

- 12:54Speaker 2: So all right?
- 12:57Speaker 1: Two to one. Austin takes the lead.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Since that almost got to this point. Evan, you will
- 13:04Speaker 2: be the final decider in who rings in first, correct,
- 13:08Speaker 2: So if it's close, it's just your call.
- 13:12Speaker 1: I will be unbiased.
- 13:14Speaker 3: You're changing my name to Bob.
- 13:17Speaker 2: You're gonna forget Now if you say Forest, you're screwed,
- 13:21Speaker 2: just trying to pick one.
- 13:23Speaker 3: I can't even say that you have an advantage.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Well, I said, oh, Austin, if you had said Forrest
- 13:29Speaker 2: before I was done saying oh, you would have rung
- 13:31Speaker 2: in first.
- 13:32Speaker 1: All right, I'm looking at the next one, and I
- 13:34Speaker 1: really don't think either.
- 13:37Speaker 2: Entertainment to that.
- 13:39Speaker 1: So what happens if after six clues neither of you
- 13:41Speaker 1: know it?
- 13:42Speaker 3: Then well you.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Read off the six clue and then your head count
- 13:45Speaker 2: to like.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Yeah, there, no one would get the card.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Say you read off the sixth clue, give it a
- 13:51Speaker 2: second or two, and then actually do like a five four,
- 13:54Speaker 2: three two one.
- 13:54Speaker 3: Now it's a challenge. And then if we don't have
- 13:56Speaker 3: to prove prove Evan wrong.
- 13:58Speaker 1: All right, yeah, see if you can prove me wrong,
- 14:00Speaker 1: I don't know. Here we go am Clue number one

- 32:13Speaker 3: Austin's mind works in a weird, strange way, but he's
- 32:16Speaker 3: good at this game.

- 33:35Speaker 1: Every time I will.
- 33:37Speaker 3: Put the plug in that barrelage malort is better than
- 33:40Speaker 3: regular maork.
- 33:41Speaker 2: Okay, that's something you have to take the edge off. Yeah,
- 33:44Speaker 2: I bet you have. You have taken a shot a
- 33:47Speaker 2: barrel aged Mallory told me about that. I've seen a
- 33:50Speaker 2: guy on TikTok actually put malort through a Brita filter
- 33:54Speaker 2: and apparently it makes it taste a little bit better,
- 33:57Speaker 2: which still means it tastes awful. Yeah, but it's not
- 34:01Speaker 2: as bad.
- 34:01Speaker 3: I just don't understand. I mean, I get why we
- 34:04Speaker 3: do it for punishment, but I don't mind it. I don't. Well,
- 34:08Speaker 3: first of all, once again, you know how I just

- 34:17Speaker 3: I don't know why it's gaining popularity, but it is.
- 34:20Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's it's good.
- 34:23Speaker 1: Anyway, We're gonna move into our next segment. I'm also
- 34:25Speaker 1: going to move into our next beer, Yeah, because I'm
- 34:27Speaker 1: ready for it. Are you guys ready?
- 34:29Speaker 2: You go for it?
- 34:30Speaker 3: I gotta, I gotta. I was playing a game, so
- 34:32Speaker 3: I wasn't concentrated on drinking, So.
- 34:34Speaker 1: You got a little bit more. You're ready for a
- 34:38Speaker 1: We got to keep the display brodella out there though.
- 34:40Speaker 2: Well, I'll pour and then put it.
- 34:42Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Yeah, unless there's another one.
- 34:45Speaker 1: There's two more?
- 34:46Speaker 2: Okay, here, here you go. Thank you.
- 34:49Speaker 3: I say, if you give me one, I'll I'll crack
- 34:51Speaker 3: and drink it from the can real quick. To cheers
- 34:53Speaker 3: and everything.
- 34:54Speaker 2: So so this is bro Dello. The can is very
- 34:58Speaker 2: a new cup.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Okay, I'll be okay.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Well you were about to say, yeah, do you want
- 35:04Speaker 2: a new cup?
- 35:05Speaker 3: You know, no, I don't need a new cup.
- 35:07Speaker 1: You want a new cup.
- 35:08Speaker 2: I'm good, I really am. Then you got to wash
- 35:10Speaker 2: it and it's.
- 35:11Speaker 1: No, it's fine. I drink out of drink, drink out
- 35:13Speaker 1: of the new cup. It'll be better.
- 35:14Speaker 2: Then, okay, we'll do a new cup. All right. So
- 35:17Speaker 2: this one, it's apparently very modello like. The can art
- 35:22Speaker 2: is very reminiscent of Medello, which is a Mexican.
- 35:26Speaker 1: Blogger, but it's a bro Dello.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm interested to see. I've had a fair
- 35:32Speaker 2: share of Medellos before. I like it. Usually it's in
- 35:36Speaker 2: Mexico at the All Inclusives when I have a Medello.
- 35:39Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm interested to see what this tastes like.
- 35:42Speaker 2: Did you already sneak a sneak a little bit?
- 35:44Speaker 1: I was just trying to get the foam off the
- 35:45Speaker 1: top so that I could scoll it without spilling school school.
- 35:50Speaker 1: Yea to the bros. That's a little bit more in
- 35:58Speaker 1: my category of beer. And I'll be honest, I haven't
- 36:01Speaker 1: had a lot of Modello's. If I'm gonna tasty it is.
- 36:04Speaker 1: If I'm gonna drink a Mexican beer, I'm gonna drink
- 36:07Speaker 1: probably a Corona. So I haven't had a ton of Medellas.
- 36:11Speaker 1: I have had Modella before. But something that I taste immediately,
- 36:15Speaker 1: and it's in their description, is it's a Mexican lagger
- 36:19Speaker 1: brewed with blue corn. You can taste it.
- 36:21Speaker 3: You definitely taste the corn. I don't know if I
- 36:23Speaker 3: could distinguish if it was made with blue corn, blue
- 36:27Speaker 3: corn or yellow corn, but it definitely tastes the corn.
- 36:30Speaker 1: It's there in the front of the flavor profile.
- 36:33Speaker 3: I will say, this is definitely good.
- 36:36Speaker 2: I mean, it's refreshing.
- 36:39Speaker 3: I'd be interested if you got a lime wedge in
- 36:42Speaker 3: there and in there like any other Mexican beer. And
- 36:46Speaker 3: I bet you had played very nicely with it.
- 36:48Speaker 2: I agree, And at five it's pretty high on that
- 36:50Speaker 2: lawn mower scale. So man, I like it a lot.
- 36:54Speaker 2: I'm really glad you got this because now this is
- 36:56Speaker 2: definitely one I'll grab in the future.
- 36:58Speaker 3: Yeah, field Day, nicely done.
- 37:02Speaker 1: We should develop Austin's lawnmower scale and like publish that.
- 37:08Speaker 1: We could trademark that.
- 37:09Speaker 2: I mean, so to be clear, I got that idea
- 37:13Speaker 2: from a different podcast that I've listened to also about beer,
- 37:17Speaker 2: where they say, yeah, this is four out of five lawnmowers,
- 37:19Speaker 2: you know, stuff like that. So I don't know if
- 37:22Speaker 2: we could patent it, but I have no problem using
- 37:24Speaker 2: that idea. But it's not my own. So but yeah,
- 37:29Speaker 2: this spear is great and I can't wait to talk
- 37:31Speaker 2: about how much better the Vikings draft was than the
- 37:34Speaker 2: Bears while drinking this beer.
- 37:35Speaker 3: Yeah you would think that.
- 37:37Speaker 1: All right, Well, speaking of the draft, we're a couple
- 37:40Speaker 1: weeks removed now from the draft, and we're going to
- 37:44Speaker 1: take a look at both the Bears and the Vikings
- 37:47Speaker 1: draft since we've got the Bears fan here, so I'll
- 37:52Speaker 1: give you some context, I'll give the listeners some context here,
- 37:55Speaker 1: and then I think we'll start with the Bears and
- 37:57Speaker 1: then we'll we'll end up talking about the Vikings here
- 37:59Speaker 1: in a minute. But I found a pretty cool little
- 38:03Speaker 1: graphic put out by Vikes Verified where they basically broke
- 38:08Speaker 1: down all of the Vikings draft picks into a couple
- 38:11Speaker 1: different categories, and so I sent it to Austin earlier
- 38:14Speaker 1: today and he took that idea and ran with it,
- 38:17Speaker 1: and he ranked the Bears draft picks and you used
- 38:21Speaker 1: an article.
- 38:22Speaker 2: To do that. Yeah, I had some help with an
- 38:24Speaker 2: article we can link down below, but yeah, similar idea. Basically,
- 38:28Speaker 2: the idea is to put these all of the draft
- 38:32Speaker 2: picks for each team into one of three different categories. Sorry,
- 38:36Speaker 2: then I totally cut you off.
- 38:37Speaker 1: Now you're good.
- 38:38Speaker 2: The categories are, and this is only looking at twenty
- 38:42Speaker 2: twenty six, how these players will do in their first
- 38:44Speaker 2: in their rookie year for each team. The categories are
- 38:48Speaker 2: high impact, so basically being an early contributor or not
- 38:53Speaker 2: or rotational, kind of situational rotational maybe gets in quite
- 38:57Speaker 2: a bit or a little bit, and then develop mental
- 39:00Speaker 2: so kind of maybe they don't play much at all,
- 39:02Speaker 2: maybe they're on the practice squad.
- 39:03Speaker 3: And I just want, like the way I read at
- 39:05Speaker 3: least for the one you did for the Bears, and
- 39:07Speaker 3: I looked it over and I agree overall, this is
- 39:11Speaker 3: literally taking it from like a year just one year,
- 39:14Speaker 3: like this first.
- 39:15Speaker 2: This is their whole career, and this is just how I.
- 39:18Speaker 3: Just want to make sure people understand that this is
- 39:20Speaker 3: kind of a first year look for all these rookies.
- 39:23Speaker 1: So and it's purely speculation.
- 39:26Speaker 2: Yeah, oh absolutely, but I think most people would agree. So, yep,
- 39:30Speaker 2: where do we want to start the Bears draft? Since
- 39:32Speaker 2: we got front of the show.
- 39:33Speaker 1: Course, yeah, let's do it.
- 39:35Speaker 2: So this first name is kind of interesting because it's
- 39:37Speaker 2: a name that Evan, you and I.
- 39:38Speaker 3: Bowl at least I know Evan high on this one though.
- 39:44Speaker 2: Yeah. So, most mock drafts I saw said the Vikings
- 39:49Speaker 2: would take Dylan Thieneman with the eighteenth overall pick, and
- 39:52Speaker 2: they didn't. They took Caleb Banks. But then the Bears
- 39:55Speaker 2: twenty five, Yeah, twenty five were able to get him.
- 39:58Speaker 3: So we were We're sitting together watching the first round
- 40:02Speaker 3: and uh, I'll let you speak on your draft pick.
- 40:06Speaker 3: But when when the picks kept coming in after the
- 40:10Speaker 3: Vikings passed on on Dylan and the Bears gotten. This
- 40:13Speaker 3: was a huge need for the Bears safety. We had
- 40:16Speaker 3: lost both our safeties from previous year, signed Kobe Bryant,
- 40:20Speaker 3: you know, so still had a space to fill. So
- 40:23Speaker 3: this is this is a huge get. This guy I
- 40:26Speaker 3: don't remember him so much in Oregon, but when he
- 40:29Speaker 3: plays time at a Purdue, this guy lights it up.
- 40:33Speaker 3: I mean, he's fast, he knows how to track a ball,
- 40:37Speaker 3: so yeah, and that's excited.
- 40:39Speaker 1: He was definitely a better statistically at or at Purdue sorry,
- 40:44Speaker 1: than he was at Oregon. He was still a contributor
- 40:48Speaker 1: at Oregon, I think, but.
- 40:49Speaker 3: I think half and half that's just talent wise. But uh, yeah,
- 40:53Speaker 3: this guy obviously transferred to Oregon to raises his level
- 40:58Speaker 3: of play. I think it translated, and obviously I think
- 41:02Speaker 3: because of that, he got a good, good first round pick.
- 41:05Speaker 2: Do you think if he had stayed at Purdue, And
- 41:09Speaker 2: I know Purdue as a program is not what Oregon
- 41:12Speaker 2: has been the SHA a few years here, but if
- 41:14Speaker 2: he had stayed at Purdue with a similar level of
- 41:16Speaker 2: play that he was showing at Purdue, do you think
- 41:19Speaker 2: he still could have benefits?
- 41:21Speaker 3: He might have, He might have, I mean tape wise,
- 41:24Speaker 3: I mean, he got definitely more showing at Oregon, obviously
- 41:28Speaker 3: more big games and then obviously being in the playoffs
- 41:31Speaker 3: and everything as well, So I think he got to
- 41:34Speaker 3: highlight it a little bit more at Oregon. But yeah,
- 41:37Speaker 3: it's hard to say. I'm obviously you know, people were
- 41:40Speaker 3: thinking he was gonna be a good player when he
- 41:42Speaker 3: was at Purdue, So yeah.
- 41:43Speaker 1: He's definitely got that Harrison Smith ability right like, and
- 41:48Speaker 1: I think that's why we as Vikings fans, were so
- 41:51Speaker 1: high on him going into the draft. It was like, man,
- 41:54Speaker 1: Harrison Smith is on his way out and this guy
- 41:57Speaker 1: could come in and at least at this point, all
- 42:00Speaker 1: signs seem to point to Harrison Smith coming back. And
- 42:04Speaker 1: I think we kind of thought, like, man, he could
- 42:07Speaker 1: be the protege and he could be the men tee
- 42:10Speaker 1: with the mentor and it'd be awesome.
- 42:12Speaker 2: And if you're a long time schoolhop listener, this is
- 42:16Speaker 2: your time to drink, because this is where we start
- 42:19Speaker 2: to derail and become a dedicated Harrison Smith podcast just
- 42:24Speaker 2: for a second. But I do think there's a every
- 42:27Speaker 2: day we don't hear something, there seems to be a
- 42:29Speaker 2: better chance that Harrison Smith either comes back for the
- 42:32Speaker 2: full season or my money would be on if the
- 42:35Speaker 2: Vikings start off, you know, if they're at mid mid
- 42:39Speaker 2: season with more wins and losses.
- 42:41Speaker 3: Are you tugging and he's gonna do like a Philip
- 42:43Speaker 3: Rivers type thing, Well.
- 42:44Speaker 2: He could do something like hey, like you know, I
- 42:47Speaker 2: wasn't there, but now like it seems like you guys
- 42:50Speaker 2: might be doing something, So I'd be open to coming back.
- 42:53Speaker 2: I mean that keep him fresh for longer. Like, I
- 42:56Speaker 2: don't know, I would almost think that that's more of
- 42:59Speaker 2: a possibility than him coming back for all of training
- 43:01Speaker 2: camp and all of preseason and everything.
- 43:03Speaker 3: But anyways, no, I but like I don't want to
- 43:07Speaker 3: cut you off because Vikings podcast, but I think I
- 43:10Speaker 3: think you guys, I would have loved to have Dylan.
- 43:14Speaker 3: Bears are obviously excited to have him. I think it
- 43:17Speaker 3: was a no brainer for for the Bears to get
- 43:20Speaker 3: a safety in his caliber.
- 43:21Speaker 2: He's an instant starter for the Bears and as long
- 43:25Speaker 2: as you know his his college career wasn't a total fluke. Correct, Yeah,
- 43:30Speaker 2: he should be good for a long time for the Bears.
- 43:33Speaker 1: So what about their cornerback pick?
- 43:37Speaker 3: So I think this, this, this one, I think is
- 43:40Speaker 3: the best value you get. I mean this is what
- 43:42Speaker 3: fourth round got. I mean day three, he was definitely on.
- 43:47Speaker 3: I think a lot of teams boards this guy. I mean,
- 43:50Speaker 3: I think he still needs needs a little development, but man,
- 43:53Speaker 3: he can cover. I mean you look at his stats
- 43:55Speaker 3: in college. He he hardly let anything get past you know,
- 44:00Speaker 3: blowby or anything. So he's fast, he's where did.
- 44:03Speaker 2: He go to school?
- 44:04Speaker 3: Texas?
- 44:04Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I.
- 44:06Speaker 3: Mean he's he's he's he's a good player. I mean
- 44:09Speaker 3: I think, you know, I don't expect maybe day one starter,
- 44:13Speaker 3: but I think he's going to be out there film
- 44:16Speaker 3: in for for the guys that need rest and everything,
- 44:18Speaker 3: and I don't think there's going to be a huge
- 44:20Speaker 3: drop off.
- 44:21Speaker 2: So yeah, Well, in the article I read kind of
- 44:23Speaker 2: predicted him to become.
- 44:25Speaker 3: Ade's quite possible. I mean, depending on how he does
- 44:28Speaker 3: off season. But yeah, very I think this is the
- 44:31Speaker 3: value pick right there, and I think that's why you
- 44:34Speaker 3: said maybe early contributor. I'm excited about that one, so
- 44:40Speaker 3: go for ITV.
- 44:40Speaker 1: Well, I was just gonna say, we've got three players
- 44:43Speaker 1: in kind of that rotational situational category. Let me list
- 44:47Speaker 1: them off quick, and then I want to know which
- 44:49Speaker 1: one you think is maybe a little bit more high
- 44:53Speaker 1: impact could potentially be a starter, and which ones are
- 44:57Speaker 1: maybe the like lower level kind of picks. Sure, you've
- 45:01Speaker 1: got Sam Roush tight end, Logan Jones at center, he's
- 45:05Speaker 1: the Iowa.
- 45:05Speaker 2: Kid, right, Yeah, I wanted him bad.
- 45:07Speaker 1: And Xavi and Thomas wide receiver.
- 45:11Speaker 3: Yeah, I think this one's a no brainer for most
- 45:14Speaker 3: Bears fans. I mean, Logan Jones is the definite great pick.
- 45:18Speaker 3: I mean, he's gonna be our future center. I mean,
- 45:21Speaker 3: give him a year to develop. I mean he could
- 45:24Speaker 3: potentially come in depending on injury. But yeah, yeah, that
- 45:28Speaker 3: was an exciting get because we need a long term
- 45:30Speaker 3: center and with Bradbury only the one year so solution. Uh,
- 45:36Speaker 3: Logan Jones, he's gonna he's gonna be h. He's gonna
- 45:39Speaker 3: be a player.
- 45:39Speaker 1: I mean, and we can maybe speak to the Garrett
- 45:42Speaker 1: Bradbury stuff because Garrett Bradbury was the center when we
- 45:45Speaker 1: started this podcast, and he's been the source of some
- 45:48Speaker 1: criticism on this podcast.
- 45:50Speaker 2: He gets bullied, He he gets.
- 45:52Speaker 1: Pushed around, and I think more so in run Run
- 45:57Speaker 1: plays right, he really just can that gets bowled.
- 46:00Speaker 3: Over, And I would say that's the opposite Logan Jones
- 46:03Speaker 3: comes from. Ioway, Yeah, they run the ball, they ain't
- 46:07Speaker 3: gonna get bullied around. So no, that Logan Jones the
- 46:11Speaker 3: exciting pick, Like he said, rotational situation just because obviously
- 46:16Speaker 3: they're thinking brad Berry for the first year. As Logan
- 46:19Speaker 3: Jones learns the system.
- 46:22Speaker 2: One more thing really quick on Jones, I think the
- 46:25Speaker 2: Bears as much as it pains me to say, and
- 46:29Speaker 2: they're playing that center position perfectly. I mean after getting
- 46:33Speaker 2: I don't know if they were completely blindsided as an
- 46:38Speaker 2: organization by a Dolman retirement.
- 46:40Speaker 3: I mean I think he had to.
- 46:41Speaker 2: I mean, but for all we know, they like like
- 46:43Speaker 2: all season he's kind of been dropping and it's like yeah, yeah,
- 46:46Speaker 2: maybe maybe yeah, but either way, like they immediately addressed
- 46:51Speaker 2: the immediate need with Bradberry. We say he gets bowled over,
- 46:55Speaker 2: but he's a very experienced end.
- 46:57Speaker 3: I mean, he held his own in New England or Newland, right, Yeah.
- 47:01Speaker 2: They went all the way to the super Bowl. He's
- 47:04Speaker 2: he's a smart player. Yeah. Yeah, That's where I.
- 47:06Speaker 1: Think he shines is those moments where he's got to
- 47:09Speaker 1: make all of those changes at the line in a
- 47:12Speaker 1: split second. He can call them out and get him,
- 47:14Speaker 1: he can get his guys moved around and get the
- 47:17Speaker 1: quarterback protect me.
- 47:18Speaker 3: But maybe that's what what Bears needed, you know, just
- 47:20Speaker 3: to keep it all going in the right direction with
- 47:23Speaker 3: kill Williams. I mean this will be his third year,
- 47:26Speaker 3: but still still needs needs a good center.
- 47:28Speaker 2: So yeah, well and then just to have Brad Barry
- 47:31Speaker 2: as a stop gap. I don't know what he's making,
- 47:33Speaker 2: but it can't be, you know, not a million dollars.
- 47:36Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not.
- 47:37Speaker 2: I think they sent a fifth round pick to the Patriots.
- 47:39Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a good deal for for still in
- 47:42Speaker 3: the need that that knowing. But there are two guys.
- 47:46Speaker 3: I mean, I'll speak on on Rash. I mean, yeah,
- 47:49Speaker 3: that one was I think everyone's shocker. It seemed like
- 47:52Speaker 3: it was a weird pick at the time, with the
- 47:55Speaker 3: Bears having Comet and Loveland both under contract.
- 47:59Speaker 2: Love.
- 47:59Speaker 3: Yeah, that's got two years in Loveland obviously coming off
- 48:02Speaker 3: his great rookie year, that one was a little odd.
- 48:04Speaker 3: But I mean, I for a Bears fan, I guess
- 48:07Speaker 3: I just got to trust the the management and the
- 48:10Speaker 3: coach on that one. Zavian Thomas is an interesting one.
- 48:14Speaker 3: He's gonna be and I think everyone will agree he's
- 48:18Speaker 3: gonna be a make or break because that dude has
- 48:20Speaker 3: lightning speed like he could he could if he makes
- 48:24Speaker 3: the catcher or or kick off return watch out. He's
- 48:28Speaker 3: he's fast and shifty, but can he hold on to
- 48:32Speaker 3: the ball as the key? So he's he's a wild
- 48:36Speaker 3: card for me.
- 48:37Speaker 2: So when was he picked?
- 48:39Speaker 3: I believe he was fifth round okay, all right, fourth
- 48:42Speaker 3: or fifth round, I can't remember.
- 48:43Speaker 2: Once you get into the fifth round, you're starting to
- 48:46Speaker 2: look at like depth and if you had really anything
- 48:49Speaker 2: of great value, that's a good pick.
- 48:51Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think I think that one. I don't
- 48:54Speaker 3: mind the pick at all because the wide receiver obviously
- 48:57Speaker 3: you filled out, you know, your your first few wide receivers.
- 49:01Speaker 3: But he kind of fills in as as ah, you know,
- 49:04Speaker 3: as a KS type type role I think in the slot,
- 49:08Speaker 3: but also as a return man on special teams. So
- 49:11Speaker 3: I don't mind that pick as much. I Like I said,
- 49:14Speaker 3: that could be a make or break, but at that
- 49:18Speaker 3: stage around it's not as brutal if if he doesn't
- 49:20Speaker 3: make it. So all right, now the developmental category. So
- 49:26Speaker 3: there's two names here, Jordan Vandenburg and then Keishaan Elliott.
- 49:31Speaker 3: Where were those guys drafted? So both were I believe, well,
- 49:35Speaker 3: I think Elliott was fifth round as well, and then
- 49:37Speaker 3: and then VanderBurg was sixth round because we gave up
- 49:39Speaker 3: our two seventh rounds for a sixth round. Elliott is
- 49:44Speaker 3: probably the one I'm not sold on from a linebacker perspective.
- 49:48Speaker 3: Maybe maybe he'll prove me wrong. I'm not I just
- 49:51Speaker 3: don't see it as much. But Jordan van Vanderberg, I mean,
- 49:57Speaker 3: he uh, I think he think he can get a
- 49:59Speaker 3: couple years under his belt. I think he could be
- 50:01Speaker 3: something special.
- 50:02Speaker 2: Everything I saw about Vanderberg was he's kind of like
- 50:05Speaker 2: the perfect candidate for like the reason the practice squad exists.
- 50:10Speaker 2: Like he's got all the physical talent and you know,
- 50:14Speaker 2: he's you know, good, but he definitely needs some more development.
- 50:19Speaker 3: Development and coaching. But he's he's got all the tools,
- 50:22Speaker 3: you know, if he wants to unlock unlock him. I
- 50:25Speaker 3: mean so and that that one was our last pick
- 50:28Speaker 3: in the sixth round, So I'm not mad about the pigs.
- 50:31Speaker 3: Hopefully hopefully it works out. But I think he had
- 50:34Speaker 3: them labeled right with developmental. You just don't know these guys.
- 50:38Speaker 1: So I've got one more question from a Bear's perspective
- 50:42Speaker 1: before we shift into Vikings thoughts. Here on the Vikings draft,
- 50:47Speaker 1: is there a player or a pick that you wish
- 50:50Speaker 1: you could get back or you wish you could redo
- 50:54Speaker 1: if you could go back.
- 50:55Speaker 3: I mean, like I said, I think everyone every Bears
- 50:57Speaker 3: fan is trying to figure out the third round pick
- 51:00Speaker 3: of Sam Rosch. I mean, I'm not saying he's not
- 51:04Speaker 3: a good player by any means. It just seemed we
- 51:08Speaker 3: had our tight ends position pretty locked in third round wise,
- 51:12Speaker 3: I mean, I would have loved to see maybe, but
- 51:14Speaker 3: maybe there was no edge washers they were digging, you
- 51:17Speaker 3: know that that was a need. I think the team
- 51:20Speaker 3: would be looking for the other thing. If you're were
- 51:23Speaker 3: looking for a tight end, maybe maybe this is the
- 51:25Speaker 3: guy I like. I sai, I'm not gonna question Ben Johnson.
- 51:28Speaker 3: The guy like Oscar Delp was still on the board,
- 51:30Speaker 3: and he definitely had a more prolific college career, So
- 51:36Speaker 3: we'll see.
- 51:36Speaker 1: I think if you follow college football and the draft
- 51:40Speaker 1: at all, you have those thoughts, right like, there's always
- 51:44Speaker 1: gonna be that one situation where you're like, man, I
- 51:47Speaker 1: wish you could go back and redo that, or yeah,
- 51:49Speaker 1: there's that one player and I feel that way, and
- 51:52Speaker 1: you could go back to last week's episode where we
- 51:55Speaker 1: recapped the Vikings draft. I felt that way about Fieneman.
- 51:59Speaker 1: He was on the board when the Vikings had their
- 52:00Speaker 1: first pick and they passed on him and they went
- 52:04Speaker 1: with Caleb Banks instead, and I was pretty upset.
- 52:09Speaker 3: I will say, as a Bears fan, the last like
- 52:12Speaker 3: three years, I will say, uh ram Poles much. I
- 52:18Speaker 3: think he does a much better job of scouting trust
- 52:21Speaker 3: his team the last three years, and obviously it's kind
- 52:24Speaker 3: of shown on the field. He I think the draft
- 52:28Speaker 3: has been much better for the Bears.
- 52:31Speaker 2: I wouldn't that be nice, wouldn't.
- 52:35Speaker 1: Well?
- 52:35Speaker 3: I mean, I love through through the years of trade
- 52:38Speaker 3: up for Trubisky, So I mean with balances exactly, so
- 52:44Speaker 3: you'll say it's encouraging for the Bears fans. So, but
- 52:49Speaker 3: like every every team, we don't know how the guys
- 52:53Speaker 3: are going to play out. I mean we see every
- 52:55Speaker 3: single year where even first rounders just don't develop how
- 52:58Speaker 3: you thought they would. So all right, Evan, moving on
- 53:02Speaker 3: to the vikings for us, all want your opinions. But Evan,
- 53:08Speaker 3: we kind of spent last week talking about our initial
- 53:11Speaker 3: thoughts on all these picks. I think maybe this time
- 53:14Speaker 3: you and I are in forced too. We can kind
- 53:16Speaker 3: of go through and see if we agree with this graphic,
- 53:20Speaker 3: which again we didn't make, but I think it's valuable.
- 53:24Speaker 3: But if we agree with where each player was placed,
- 53:29Speaker 3: if they're high impact, rotational or developmental, and then kind
- 53:34Speaker 3: of what we think if we don't agree with anything So, Evan,
- 53:38Speaker 3: is there anything on this graphic that that you don't
- 53:41Speaker 3: agree with?
- 53:42Speaker 2: Do you think of players you know, more highly regarded
- 53:46Speaker 2: than they should be or not as highly regarded either either.
- 53:48Speaker 1: Way, Well, let's quickly recap for those that are just
- 53:51Speaker 1: listening so they know, yeah, and if you're watching, you'll
- 53:55Speaker 1: we'll put the graphic up. But high impact early contributors
- 53:59Speaker 1: probably starts or in a rotation like right away. That
- 54:04Speaker 1: category includes Jake Golday, who I've read really good things about,
- 54:09Speaker 1: Caleb Banks, who's injured currently.
- 54:11Speaker 2: But everything says he's everything healthy by even training camp.
- 54:16Speaker 1: He should be good to go. That was the first
- 54:19Speaker 1: round pick and he should be electric if he's healthy
- 54:23Speaker 1: and good to go. So Jake Golday linebacker, Caleb Banks,
- 54:26Speaker 1: defensive lineman, Dominique Orange, the big citrus out of the
- 54:31Speaker 1: Iowa State University. I did say that. And then Max
- 54:38Speaker 1: Brettison Michigan kid who was kind of listed as a
- 54:43Speaker 1: tight end slash full back, which will be interesting to
- 54:45Speaker 1: see how he kind of finds his spot in the league.
- 54:49Speaker 1: So those are the four high impact early contributor players.
- 54:52Speaker 1: Then there's two rotational players, Jacoby Thomas and Demand Claiborne.
- 55:00Speaker 1: And then you have three developmental players Caleb Tiernan, an
- 55:03Speaker 1: offensive lineman Gavin Gearhart no relation to Toby Gearhart center,
- 55:08Speaker 1: and a cornerback Charles Dimmings. And this is all from
- 55:12Speaker 1: Vike's verified so they're the ones that came up with
- 55:15Speaker 1: this list. We'll link to them down below too, But
- 55:19Speaker 1: that's just kind of a quick overview of the chart.
- 55:22Speaker 1: You asked me a question and I already forgot with it,
- 55:24Speaker 1: but mine.
- 55:24Speaker 2: Was more like looking at the whole overall chart, is
- 55:26Speaker 2: there anything you don't agree with? Is a player too
- 55:30Speaker 2: highly regarded on this chart? Or is there a player
- 55:32Speaker 2: not highly enough regarded? I know my answer, but but
- 55:36Speaker 2: what do you think of this chart specifically?
- 55:38Speaker 1: I think I'm not trying to poo pooh on the
- 55:43Speaker 1: Michigan kid.
- 55:44Speaker 3: Well, you can poo poo all you want.
- 55:46Speaker 1: And it has nothing to do with him, because I think.
- 55:48Speaker 3: He will show you on the field.
- 55:51Speaker 1: And here's it has nothing to do with him. I
- 55:55Speaker 1: think it has everything to do with the position that
- 55:57Speaker 1: he's listed at. And I've said this going back to
- 56:00Speaker 1: basically like episode one of this podcast, that the full
- 56:04Speaker 1: back position is starting to become an antiquated position in
- 56:09Speaker 1: pro football. Maybe not so much in college or high
- 56:12Speaker 1: school football and youth football whatever, but in pro football
- 56:16Speaker 1: it's becoming few and far between. You don't see the
- 56:20Speaker 1: full back position very much anymore. And I felt like,
- 56:22Speaker 1: even going back to the early stages of our show, Yeah,
- 56:25Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty seven episodes.
- 56:27Speaker 2: Ago, episode one or two, you said c J. Ham
- 56:30Speaker 2: should be cut. You were demanding him.
- 56:33Speaker 1: I wasn't. No, don't, don't put words in my mouth.
- 56:36Speaker 2: Maybe the listeners should go back to episode one and
- 56:39Speaker 2: probably two to listen.
- 56:41Speaker 1: It's not you can listen for yourselves. It's not what
- 56:44Speaker 1: I said. I love CJ.
- 56:46Speaker 2: Ham.
- 56:46Speaker 1: The man is incredible. However, he plays a position played
- 56:52Speaker 1: past tense because he no longer plays it. He's retired
- 56:55Speaker 1: from the league. Played a position that is waning, not
- 56:58Speaker 1: waxing in the NFL. And I feel the same way
- 57:02Speaker 1: about Max Bredison. And he was listed. Let's let's be clear.
- 57:07Speaker 1: He was listed as a tight end going into the draft. No,
- 57:10Speaker 1: he was.
- 57:11Speaker 2: No, I think depending on which which like outlet.
- 57:16Speaker 1: You when when I was tuning into the draft.
- 57:20Speaker 3: But if it was like the SID, it's kind of
- 57:23Speaker 3: a false because well, you watched his his four years
- 57:26Speaker 3: at Michigan. He really didn't play tight end. He played
- 57:28Speaker 3: full back. He might have lined up a few times
- 57:30Speaker 3: as a tight end, and everything.
- 57:33Speaker 1: Everything that I was sold when I watched the draft
- 57:37Speaker 1: and this guy got picked was that he was a
- 57:39Speaker 1: tight end. And I kept thinking to myself, why on
- 57:42Speaker 1: earth are we taking a tight end? We don't really
- 57:44Speaker 1: need one of those. I mean, maybe we do if TJ.
- 57:48Speaker 1: Howkinson isn't that healthy. But all that to say, they
- 57:54Speaker 1: drafted the guy, and it seems like they drafted the
- 57:56Speaker 1: guy to replace c. J. Ham, which seems to make
- 58:00Speaker 1: sense on the surface, but when you dig a little
- 58:03Speaker 1: bit deeper and you understand where the league is at,
- 58:06Speaker 1: you kind of scratch your head a little bit and
- 58:08Speaker 1: you kind of wonder, why on earth did they draft
- 58:11Speaker 1: this full back?
- 58:13Speaker 2: Right?
- 58:13Speaker 1: And so he's the one that I'm sitting here kind
- 58:16Speaker 1: of thinking, I don't know that he belongs in a
- 58:18Speaker 1: high impact, early contributor phase. Even this graphic by whoever
- 58:26Speaker 1: made it, I just said it Bike's verified, which I'm
- 58:30Speaker 1: sure they're great and I'm sure they have good takes
- 58:32Speaker 1: on stuff. But even then they say he's a gadget player,
- 58:36Speaker 1: and I don't know. I'm not a I'm not a
- 58:39Speaker 1: big gadget guy. I'm not a big I don't know.
- 58:44Speaker 1: I don't think Koc is a big gadget guy.
- 58:46Speaker 2: Oh, I think he's. But we didn't see We're gonna
- 58:50Speaker 2: agree to disagree on.
- 58:51Speaker 1: That one, but we didn't see the full back used
- 58:53Speaker 1: as a gadget player. He did score a touchdown c J. Hammon,
- 58:57Speaker 1: that is, I think. I think last season, which I
- 59:00Speaker 1: and we were there to witness that, right, we were
- 59:02Speaker 1: there at the Packers game to see c J. Hamp
- 59:05Speaker 1: so like. But when when the stakes were low and
- 59:08Speaker 1: there wasn't a whole lot on the line, maybe.
- 59:11Speaker 2: Well, so I'll disagree respectfully. I think, yes, that's what
- 59:17Speaker 2: we can do. The fullback position is a dying position
- 59:20Speaker 2: in the NFL, but I would say it's not so
- 59:23Speaker 2: much a dying and more so a changing position, evolving
- 59:27Speaker 2: because the fullback used to be the Mike Alstad, the
- 59:30Speaker 2: guy that you never hated him the ball to actually
- 59:34Speaker 2: rush it or lind him up.
- 59:36Speaker 1: At a better A better comparison would have been Jimmy
- 59:38Speaker 1: Klein Jimmy kleinsauce.
- 59:39Speaker 2: Come on, man, however, listen to my comparison like you
- 59:43Speaker 2: didn't mind him.
- 59:43Speaker 3: I got interest, your your your listeners.
- 59:46Speaker 2: So this is where I'm saying, it's not Jimmy Clinsaucer.
- 59:50Speaker 2: So client Saucer was. I'm pretty sure I tied end
- 59:53Speaker 2: out of college. And every time he was a second
- 59:56Speaker 2: round pick, and every time in Madden I played with
- 59:59Speaker 2: Jimmy Kleinsaus he was listed as a tight end. He
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: just he was the true gadget. Klein Saucer would line
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: up as tight end, he'd line up as running back,
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: he would line up as you know, the halfback. He
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: was definitely a fullback by definition, but they used him everywhere.
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: And I feel like the Vikings have kind of always
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: done that since Clein Saucer, including in since the tweet
- 1:00:27Speaker 2: the Vikings put out the second they drafted Max Bredison.
- 1:00:30Speaker 2: They didn't call him, you know, round five, number one,
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: fifty nine tight end, Max Bretison. They literally said full
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: back love in the tweet that they posted the second
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: they drafted him, He's gonna be a full back. But
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: the Vikings in even koc all of Kos's career, what
- 1:00:47Speaker 2: do they do with c J.
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: Hamm.
- 1:00:49Speaker 2: They kept resigning him, they kept bringing him back, and
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: it's not like they were signing him a ten million
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: dollar deals, but they kept bringing him back when they
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: could have easily been like, you know, went, we'll just
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: add an extra running back to the room, maybe a
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: beef your guy, or we'll just add another tight end
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: to the tight end room, maybe some guy who can
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: carry the ball a little bit. They signed specifically C. J.
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: Ham to keep being their full back, and then the
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: second he retired, the first opportunity they first opportunity they got,
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: they got what is widely considered the best fullback to
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: come out of college football into this draft. So is
- 1:01:27Speaker 2: it going to be the draft pick of the century
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: for the Vikings Bretison? Probably not, but he may end
- 1:01:34Speaker 2: up being in Vikings fans lower the same as Jimmy
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: Klein saucers.
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: You you, I think articulated better than I could on
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: that one. For for your Vikings fans, is is the
- 1:01:48Speaker 3: point that you made? It was Ham gone. They had
- 1:01:52Speaker 3: a void they felt and they filled it.
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: Yeah they didn't.
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: He he's got can he can catch it. Like he's
- 1:02:00Speaker 3: not just he's a full back. I mean he can block.
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: I mean he he loves to put his helmet down
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: and hit. So your running backs are gonna benefit. Yeah,
- 1:02:11Speaker 3: he can, he can, he can, he can catch it
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: out out of the backfield. I will also say he
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: does have a few years of chemistry with JJ McCarthy,
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: jjmis at his draft, so that doesn't hurt yeah by
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: any means. And here's here's where Skoll Hop listeners can
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: drink again, because we're going to derail on the quarterback position.
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: You bringing up JJ McCarthy, some people in mainstream NFL
- 1:02:39Speaker 3: following media would roll their eyes, like McCarthy, they signed
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: Kyler Murray, He's going.
- 1:02:43Speaker 2: To be the starter. Excuse me. I think it's going
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: to be a competition, but it's going to be I
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: think I tweeted out this week. I think JJ McCarthy,
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: as saying to sit right now, has at least a
- 1:02:55Speaker 2: forty chance to be the Week one starter, which is
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: way higher than a lot of people would say.
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: I would actually go fifty to fifty myself.
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: Well, and I only even follow the vikings, but I
- 1:03:07Speaker 3: honestly think you guys drafted JJ McCarthy. You're gonna give
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: them shots. So as long as he can show you
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: know that he can compete. Yeah, there ere, I think
- 1:03:19Speaker 3: you're think you're gonna go roll with them.
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: I was throwing the minute.
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: Because if you don't roll, if he's showing good promise
- 1:03:25Speaker 3: and you don't roll with him, you only get Kyler
- 1:03:28Speaker 3: Murray for a year. So yeah, you could, you could definitely.
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: Be yep, I was just throwing the minute chance that
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: Carson Wentz could win the job. I mean it's not zero,
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: it's not zero.
- 1:03:40Speaker 3: You're right here, it's not zero.
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: But anyways, draft Evan, you're you're not impressed with the
- 1:03:44Speaker 2: Bretiston pick, and that's.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: I don't think he's not impressed, I think, and it's
- 1:03:49Speaker 3: he's looking. He's looking at the list that provide. That's
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: the one that he's not impressed with as much as
- 1:03:55Speaker 3: the other guys.
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: And it's not the player himself. I think it's where
- 1:04:00Speaker 1: again Vike's verified has him. I don't know that he's
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: a high impact player right away. It's tough for me
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: to say c J. Ham was high impact throughout his
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: throughout his entire career. He's a spot player that played
- 1:04:17Speaker 1: a specific role. And again that's not I'm not trying
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: to take away anything from c J. Ham and I'm
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: not trying to say that he wasn't a great player.
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: He was. In fact, I know people who know CJ.
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: That were true, he would have been on the show
- 1:04:31Speaker 2: by now. But homework is signed.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: Seven degrees of separation or six degrees of separation, whatever
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: it is. We're all connected in some way. But CJM
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: great guy, great player, and definitely played a role on
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: the team. I think his role in the locker room
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: was higher than his role on the field. And again
- 1:04:51Speaker 1: not to minimize anything he did on the field, because
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: when he was on the field, he did some good stuff,
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: including a touchdown this last year, which is great, but.
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: A couple of touchdowts?
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: Was it a couple?
- 1:05:02Speaker 2: I think at least two?
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, well he's still in terms of touchdowns. Wasn't
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: that productive throughout his career And it's tough to quantify
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: the production of a full back when his job is
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: primarily blocking and stuff like that. But I think I
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: don't think that he doesn't belong on this list, and
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: I think Max Bredison was a good pick for the Vikings.
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: I think he finds himself more in the rotational situational
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: category sure than he finds himself in the high impact
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: and maybe that's why this platform, this group has them
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: has him Max Bredison towards the bottom of their high impact.
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: And I could I could understand why you're thinking as
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: a rotational I'm telling you I think when he's on
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: the field he can make a difference on things.
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: So well, I think the main and of course I
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: don't know these guys likes Verified, I don't know hoo
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: put this together, but I think probably the main factor
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: in putting him in this high impact category is just
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: because if there is a starting fullback currently, it's Max Bredeson.
- 1:06:09Speaker 2: So you're talking about a starter on an NFL team,
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: whether it's one touchdown or twenty, that's still a high
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: impact on the team position. So that's probably most of
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: the motivation of putting him in that high impact category.
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: If I had to guess, I'm not predicting him to
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: get five hundred rushing.
- 1:06:30Speaker 3: Yards and ten to He's not going to be probably
- 1:06:35Speaker 3: player of the game or you know, stuff like that,
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: but I think he's going to make a huge impact
- 1:06:40Speaker 3: on your play calling and stush like that.
- 1:06:46Speaker 2: Yep, all right, ev, did you have any other specifically
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: from this Vike's Verified graphic, any other opinions on like,
- 1:06:56Speaker 2: well I agree with him or I don't agree with
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: him at all.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: I think I think Gavin Gerhart is maybe a little
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: higher up than developmental. I know that he was drafted
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: pretty late. He was a seventh rounder, and he's a center.
- 1:07:15Speaker 1: I know that there's gonna be a little bit of competition,
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: I think, but Blake Brandell kind of seems like he's
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: got the job locked down for now anyways. But if
- 1:07:27Speaker 1: I know anything about the Vikings offensive line the last
- 1:07:30Speaker 1: couple of years, it's been longevity and health and sustainability, right,
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: Like those are the words that we keep coming back to.
- 1:07:40Speaker 1: Can these guys stay healthy? Can they stay on the field.
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: And the Vikings have been that team that are like
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: consistently in the graphic that shows up like late in
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: the season that's like, oh, this team's been through this
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: many combinations in terms of offensive lineman starters since the
- 1:08:00Speaker 1: beginning of the year, and you know, there's always that
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: one team that has this like revolving door on the
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: offensive line, and that seems to be the Vikings for
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: the last couple of years. There was one year where
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: it was like the Vikings were like the shining star
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: in terms of the offensive line and everybody was healthy.
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: I think that was like two or three years ago,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: but that was the anomaly, that was the outlier. And
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: typically with the offensive line, it's just kind of next
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: man up, next man up. All right, he's gone, next
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: man up. And we've seen injuries to Brian O'Neill, we've
- 1:08:30Speaker 1: seen injuries to Christian Darisa. Christian Darisaw maybe doesn't seem
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: like he's the like same player that he was coming
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: off of his knee injury.
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: So well, I think he's still he's still very much
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: he'll he'll be fine. Oh yeah, he's still very much
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: a great player. But you gotta hope that he's willing
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: to put pressure back on that knee when he's getting
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: pushed into like he.
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: Does all the time. So I don't know. I think
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: Gavin Gearhart might play a little bit of a bigger
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: role in this offensive line. Then they're giving him here
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: on Vikes verified, So I don't know. I see him
- 1:09:11Speaker 1: maybe in that rotational situational category more than the backup
- 1:09:15Speaker 1: project developmental category that they've got him in right now.
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: But I don't know. I'm just a guy sitting in
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: my basement drinking beer.
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: No, I actually I following, you know that logic I'd
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: say that might be more the one of the more
- 1:09:33Speaker 3: breaker make you know your team because center wise, for.
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: Long term, I wanted to draft a center high, yeah,
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: and they didn't until they didn't.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: So you hope that you wanted to drafte You.
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: Hope Gearhart works out, and if they do it does
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: then that that's that's a huge win for your organization.
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: So that's the one. I would say that as actually
- 1:09:56Speaker 3: very interesting as an opponent, you know, because I think
- 1:10:01Speaker 3: both Bears and and the Vikings need long term solutions
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: for their center position.
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: So yeah, for me, I've got three players that I
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: don't take high opposition to on this graphic, but I
- 1:10:15Speaker 2: would definitely change. First off, Jake Golday, apparently he's gonna
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: be good, but this graphic has him down as like
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: a day one starter, like you know, high snap player.
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: I think it just lists at linebacker, so I don't
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: know where that puts him at outside or inside, but
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: outside he would be behind uh Dallas yeah, and inside
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: he would be behind Cashman and Eric Wilson. So unless
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: he just completely destroys one of those four in training
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: camp to earn a starting job, he's going to be
- 1:10:55Speaker 2: a rotational player. So I'd put Golde in rotational only
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: looking at twenty twenty six for sure, sure, and then
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: currently demand Claiborne the running back is in rotational. I'd
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: put him at developmental. People were really excited for him
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: with his four three seven speed being able to you know,
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: change speed and direction really quick and be really good,
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: but also the Vikings. At minimum, he's behind Jordan Mason
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: and Aaron Jones.
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: Aaron Jones got what one year left.
- 1:11:30Speaker 2: Though his timeline, but I mean, at minimum, those guys
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: are ahead of him. Right, what round did you do
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: Clayborne at he was like a six round pick value then,
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: so value sure seems to be there and maybe in
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: the future he's going to be, you know, a high
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: impact player, but I don't even know if he'll really
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: be rotational. This year, think of how many times we
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: actually saw Xavier Scott on the field, and that's with it.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: Wasn't until there was injury to Aaron.
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: Jones, and that's with ty Chandler being out, and Aaron
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: Jones was injured for quite a few games this year,
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: and still Xavier Scott didn't plays mostly ty Chandler. No,
- 1:12:08Speaker 2: he signed with the Saints, but yeah, so I think
- 1:12:12Speaker 2: it'll be the Jordan Mason Aaron Jones show, and then
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: we probably won't see outside of injury, many other running
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: backs on an even rotational basis.
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: But Claiborne should be an easy number three guy could be.
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: Yeah, yea, I don't.
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: Think there's really no. I don't think there's any other
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: depth there.
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: I mean Xavier Scott and then I don't know about
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: undrafted guys, but and then the other one there's currently
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: they list him as developmental, but Charles Demings. I'd put
- 1:12:39Speaker 2: him at rotational really as a cornerback just because of
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: the cornerback room.
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: You have depth or don't have not much depth at all.
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's it's Byron Murphy Junior, and then Isaiah
- 1:12:50Speaker 2: Rodgers and then not much else.
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: So there's another Vikings running back to John Owens.
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: I think he was a UD. So yeah, that's my
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: opinions on this graphic. Can really the Vikings draft as
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: a whole? Yeah, Forrest, do you have any opinions on
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: one or more Vikings draft picks?
- 1:13:14Speaker 3: You know, I think I stayed in Obviously. Max Preston
- 1:13:17Speaker 3: is easy for me to analyze because he's a Michigan player.
- 1:13:20Speaker 3: So I think you struck gold with with Dominic Orange.
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: I mean, I think.
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: He's a big.
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: He's gonna be an impact player. I mean he's gonna
- 1:13:31Speaker 3: be a stop gap and uh man, that that's a
- 1:13:36Speaker 3: huge get. I don't know about your first rounder. I mean,
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: obviously injury it plays a big part in that.
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all I mean, it could be.
- 1:13:46Speaker 3: It could be.
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: So we're gonna split the last one here.
- 1:13:52Speaker 3: We still have we still have a romance.
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: We can split that one later okay post production, but
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: we have a little bit more Britain.
- 1:14:01Speaker 3: No, I'm I'm I'm very jealous of your Dominic Orange.
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: I think that's the one. I'm like that that was.
- 1:14:09Speaker 3: That was a huge get.
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: I feel like I saw him, you know, after the draft.
- 1:14:14Speaker 2: I saw a lot of people on Twitter like, dang
- 1:14:16Speaker 2: its lot.
- 1:14:19Speaker 3: I mean, living in within the area and and having
- 1:14:23Speaker 3: some Iowa State fans and stuff like that. I saw
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: a lot more of his play. So I'm probably a
- 1:14:30Speaker 3: little biased, but he is. He is a force to
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: be reckon with, and I think he and I agree
- 1:14:36Speaker 3: with that he's an high impact player that's going to
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: fill that void on on the d lines for you.
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: So and the Lord knows we need help in the
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: interior defensive line absolutely.
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: Like I said earlier, though, I think the center get
- 1:14:50Speaker 3: with Gearhart is your most intriguing one because that could
- 1:14:54Speaker 3: be back to the drawing board next year or in
- 1:14:58Speaker 3: two years. I'd say, you know, if he's not looking
- 1:15:01Speaker 3: like he can be a fill in.
- 1:15:03Speaker 2: So is that opinion coming from because if there's a
- 1:15:07Speaker 2: college expert, college football expert among the three of us,
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: you are by far and above the expert. Not to
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: say you're you know.
- 1:15:15Speaker 3: I mean, big, big ten, big twelve are definitely so.
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: So you saying that about Gavin Gearhart like a potential
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: future guy. Is that because you've you've known of him
- 1:15:27Speaker 2: in college, or you're basing that off of a lot
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: of what we're saying a.
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: Little I just think I think, like you you mentioned earlier,
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: you need a center long term. I thought, I thought
- 1:15:42Speaker 3: it was interesting that you kind of passed, but at
- 1:15:44Speaker 3: the same time the Bears passed on the edge rusher
- 1:15:46Speaker 3: that I felt was truly needed for for a while.
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: And maybe you know, when when your selections up, you
- 1:15:52Speaker 3: just don't like the board that's given to you on
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: that position. So your your either solution is to trade
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: if if if you have candy, trade that's the first
- 1:16:02Speaker 3: thing if you I mean, you don't want trade if
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: you don't get good value. So sometimes it's bear just
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: to pick. For the Bears, I think that may be
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: the tight end situation with Roush. I mean, they couldn't
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: find a trade partner, so they're like, well, let's just
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: take him in because we think we can develop them enough.
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: So all right, one more question for you for us,
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: and it's putting you on the spot.
- 1:16:24Speaker 3: I love it.
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: Vikings, Bears, Packers, Lions. Yeah, they all drafted, they all
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: are did what is You can choose either your favorite
- 1:16:34Speaker 2: or your least favorite pick in the entire NFC North
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: and it can be a Bears pick. That's fine. But
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: just being a college football guy your favorite pick.
- 1:16:46Speaker 3: That's that's tough. It really is tough. The Lions that yeah,
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: they I think they had a good draft. I think
- 1:16:55Speaker 3: they had a good draft. I think they I hope
- 1:16:57Speaker 3: you're wrong. Well I hope I'm wrong too. I mean
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: they did draft two Michigan guys, so but anyway, beyond Michigan,
- 1:17:07Speaker 3: I think Detroy actually met their needs of what positions
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: they needed. I actually think the Packers had the worst draft.
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: I mean, they didn't have a first round pick. I
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: just I'm not I'm not overly impressed with with very
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: really any of their picks. So I'm knowing the Packers,
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: they'll they'll probably be you know, diamonds in the rough
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: type thing.
- 1:17:28Speaker 2: But uh sure.
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: But they did draft a kicker at the very end too,
- 1:17:32Speaker 3: so that the name Smack as a kicker. That's awesome.
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: I didn't I didn't know that.
- 1:17:37Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, so I'm happy from the standpoint that I
- 1:17:42Speaker 3: think the Packers had the worst draft of the four
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: teams in the division. I think the Vikings field needs.
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: I think they filled needs. I think I'm still thrown
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: by your first round pick.
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: Personally, it must have been the highest on their board. Yeah,
- 1:17:56Speaker 2: and I'm not saying it won't work. Maybe he Kaled
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: Banks is be amazing, and he probably will be, but uh,
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: that one shocked me. I love the first two rounds
- 1:18:07Speaker 2: of the Bears. The layer rounds, you know, it gets
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: a little more, uh harder to analyze. So but I
- 1:18:15Speaker 2: really liked the first.
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: Two rounds of the Bears. I think they met two
- 1:18:18Speaker 3: needs and uh they're gonna be stellar players. So yeah,
- 1:18:25Speaker 3: I'm just glad I'm not like a Browns fan, That's true.
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: So fun fact, the NFL dot com website had the
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: Vikings as the lowest graded draft at a B and
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: then they had the Packers at a B plus, and
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: then they had both Chicago and Detroit at a minus
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: for their draft.
- 1:18:47Speaker 3: I think a lot of that has to do. And
- 1:18:49Speaker 3: I'm not speaking for the Bears, but literally, did you
- 1:18:52Speaker 3: feel the positions that they felt the need was neat
- 1:18:55Speaker 3: or there?
- 1:18:56Speaker 1: So?
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: Yep, yep, agreed?
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: Well, uh uh, all of it remains to be seen,
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: right like there's.
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: All it all matters on the field.
- 1:19:06Speaker 1: Yep. There's nothing we can do except sit here and
- 1:19:08Speaker 1: speculate and you know.
- 1:19:09Speaker 2: Here and cheer on our teams.
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: Yeah, see what happens with these players.
- 1:19:13Speaker 2: So all right, Well, I think I think we've done it. Boys,
