Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Wow, that call. It is absolutely tag way back, get gone.
- 0:11Speaker 1: Luke Raley punishes a pitch, two run blast and.
- 0:17Speaker 2: It's six nothing Marits. Yeah, really fell like a win
- 0:26Speaker 2: right there, did Aaron Goldsmith on the Call Mariners television.
- 0:31Speaker 2: Luke Raley had a great night last night. That's another
- 0:34Speaker 2: thing about this is a rose arena and Rayley are
- 0:37Speaker 2: playing so well right now, back to back and I
- 0:40Speaker 2: know we scored six runs and the problem was munios
- 0:42Speaker 2: last night and not the offense. But we're kind of
- 0:47Speaker 2: in a way wasting these those two and what they're doing,
- 0:51Speaker 2: like nobody's getting on in front of them, and nobody's
- 0:54Speaker 2: driving them in behind them, like they're doing all the
- 0:56Speaker 2: damage on the entire team right now. Just a little
- 1:00Speaker 2: added frustration.
- 1:02Speaker 3: Well then, yeah, and then we don't get to talk
- 1:04Speaker 3: about how good they did either.
- 1:05Speaker 4: That's I mean, he was what Luke Raley was four
- 1:08Speaker 4: for five.
- 1:08Speaker 2: Yesterday, right and crushed every pitch. Yeah, it wasn't like
- 1:11Speaker 2: some squibver down the line, Gavin Sheets exactly.
- 1:13Speaker 3: I would have loved to have come in today and
- 1:15Speaker 3: been able to just talk about how awesome Rayley was
- 1:18Speaker 3: and is he back because last year, you know, he
- 1:20Speaker 3: struggled so much, so it's so nice to see him
- 1:22Speaker 3: doing so well and then.
- 1:24Speaker 2: Back he's like Luke back at He's like Luke Raley Walker.
- 1:29Speaker 2: He went he went and met with Yoda, I think
- 1:32Speaker 2: in the offseason, and came back.
- 1:34Speaker 4: A Jedi the way might know something.
- 1:36Speaker 2: That's the way he's playing right now. But the Mariners
- 1:39Speaker 2: not a good not a good night. They blew a lead,
- 1:42Speaker 2: six run lead last night, lost seven to six. That
- 1:45Speaker 2: is a bad loss for the Ms. They fall to
- 1:48Speaker 2: eight and eleven on the season. They will try now
- 1:50Speaker 2: to salvage a game in San Diego where we could
- 1:53Speaker 2: be talking about winning the series tonight five forty first
- 1:57Speaker 2: pitch a couple of veterans who are struggling out of
- 1:59Speaker 2: the gate. Walker Bueller for them. He's probably on the
- 2:02Speaker 2: last threat of his career, and we hope Luis Castillo
- 2:05Speaker 2: is not moving in that direction. But he is off
- 2:07Speaker 2: to an even worse start than Bueler, So we really
- 2:10Speaker 2: need the Rock step up tonight. He really needs to
- 2:13Speaker 2: step up tonight because Emerson Hancock is not going anywhere.
- 2:18Speaker 2: That is four outings and he's been scintillating so far
- 2:22Speaker 2: for the Mariners, and he deserved to win last night.
- 2:24Speaker 2: So five forty first pitch from San Diego. We are
- 2:27Speaker 2: seven days from the NFL Draft. That's right, just seven sleeps,
- 2:32Speaker 2: one week away from the first picks coming off the board.
- 2:36Speaker 2: In a moment, we will check in with our mockumentarian
- 2:39Speaker 2: for the week, Josh Edwards from CBS Sports, will go
- 2:42Speaker 2: over his latest mock draft right here on Chuck and Buck.
- 2:46Speaker 2: But as for the rest of your frost brewed corse Light,
- 2:49Speaker 2: choose chill headlines. The NBA play In Round featured another
- 2:53Speaker 2: couple entertaining games last night. I don't think they need
- 2:56Speaker 2: to be playing these games. I don't think Orlando should
- 2:59Speaker 2: be on the outside of the playoffs looking in when
- 3:02Speaker 2: they finished what nine games over five hundred this past season,
- 3:06Speaker 2: and yet the Magic will be playing for their playoff lives.
- 3:09Speaker 2: On Friday, Palo Ben Carol will meet the Charlotte Hornets.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Because Orlando lost last night to Philadelphia. That means the
- 3:17Speaker 2: Sixers punched their ticket into the playoffs as the seventh seed.
- 3:20Speaker 2: The eight seed will be determined tomorrow night when Charlotte,
- 3:24Speaker 2: who's beaten up on Orlando all season long, takes on
- 3:27Speaker 2: the Magic. The Golden State Warriors kept their playoff hopes alive,
- 3:31Speaker 2: even though they don't deserve to be in the playoffs
- 3:34Speaker 2: after the season that they add. But they've got Steph
- 3:36Speaker 2: Curry back healthy, they've got Draymond Green playing great defense,
- 3:40Speaker 2: and they won over the Los Angeles Clippers last night
- 3:43Speaker 2: one twenty six to one twenty one, so they might
- 3:45Speaker 2: slip their way into the playoffs. The Clippers are out,
- 3:48Speaker 2: the Warriors will play Friday night for that eighth and
- 3:52Speaker 2: final spot in the Western Conference. The NHL regular season
- 3:56Speaker 2: ends tonight for the Kraken that might be mercifully they're
- 4:00Speaker 2: not going to make the playoffs. They're playing out the string.
- 4:03Speaker 2: They lost last night to Las Vegas four to one.
- 4:06Speaker 2: They will participate in the last night of the regular season.
- 4:08Speaker 2: They'll be in Colorado taking on the Avalanche. They'll drop
- 4:12Speaker 2: the puck there at seven o'clock. But the NHL regular
- 4:14Speaker 2: season officially ends this evening. And so those are your
- 4:19Speaker 2: frost Brewed Corps Light Choose Chill headlines here on this
- 4:23Speaker 2: Thursday and every Thursday during the Draft miss holiday, We've
- 4:28Speaker 2: checked in with a different national mock drafter, our mockumentarian
- 4:33Speaker 2: for today, Josh Edwards. It's draft miss time.
- 4:38Speaker 5: It's draftmus job.
- 4:39Speaker 2: Best song ever play us for Josh. He's gonna love this.
- 4:44Speaker 2: We'll play the whole thing.
- 4:45Speaker 5: Yeah, Draft beast time. There's speculation everywhere. Some teams are
- 4:51Speaker 5: trading up and summer straight down. They hope to make
- 4:55Speaker 5: the balls the Bevisingle round. It's draftless time. It's trap
- 5:00Speaker 5: this time a magical time of the Hey.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Josh, you're gonna listen to the whole thing. It's not
- 5:09Speaker 2: much longer.
- 5:10Speaker 5: Let's not waste that pick this year.
- 5:12Speaker 2: I want you to spread this around to your CBS buddies.
- 5:14Speaker 2: Ryan Wilson would live love this. You'd probably make love
- 5:17Speaker 2: to his wife to this song.
- 5:18Speaker 4: I don't want to think about Ryan Wilson in that way.
- 5:23Speaker 2: Yeah, wait till Blake Brockermeyer gets a hold of this song.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Talk about a toe tapper.
- 5:28Speaker 5: This time, it's trap.
- 5:29Speaker 2: This time a magical time of the Here we go,
- 5:34Speaker 2: here's the finish, magical time.
- 5:36Speaker 5: Of the Yeah, the pick is in.
- 5:40Speaker 2: How about that? Edwards? Huh? You guys doing anything that
- 5:44Speaker 2: creative over there at CBS Sports.
- 5:47Speaker 6: You know what, we don't have a full audio department
- 5:50Speaker 6: that puts together customary songs for us. Unfortunately, but I
- 5:54Speaker 6: appreciate the uh, the magic of that song because you know,
- 5:58Speaker 6: I don't know about you all, but if this point
- 6:00Speaker 6: the speculation is getting to be a little bit too
- 6:04Speaker 6: much for me, I'm ready just to make the picks.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I got it. I'm with you. I mean, we're
- 6:09Speaker 2: seven sleeps away from actual picks being made. Are you
- 6:13Speaker 2: finding you? I mean, because a lot of people are
- 6:15Speaker 2: saying Josh as Josh Edwards from CBS Sports joins us
- 6:19Speaker 2: as Today's mockumentarian, a lot of people are saying that
- 6:22Speaker 2: it's you know, it's a down draft and it's a
- 6:25Speaker 2: boring draft. I just I think we only have one
- 6:27Speaker 2: quarterback that's worth a top ten pick, and I think
- 6:31Speaker 2: we haven't had a big trade yet. I think it's
- 6:33Speaker 2: going to get really spicy next Thursday. And I actually,
- 6:38Speaker 2: I don't know. My fever's very high pitched at this point,
- 6:41Speaker 2: because now that you're invested in all of these players,
- 6:44Speaker 2: I really have no idea how they're going to space
- 6:48Speaker 2: themselves out on the board. Where are you with your
- 6:51Speaker 2: excitement level seven days out from the NFL Draft?
- 6:56Speaker 6: Yeah? First of all, just addressing the narrative that you
- 6:58Speaker 6: know it is a bad draft, class. You know, my
- 7:01Speaker 6: company line, so to speak, has been that if you
- 7:05Speaker 6: go back to last year, the narrative was that it
- 7:08Speaker 6: was a weak draft class as well, and that ended
- 7:10Speaker 6: up being a very productive rookie class. So I am
- 7:14Speaker 6: a little bit slower to say that it's a bad class.
- 7:17Speaker 6: It certainly lacks the you know, all pro caliber players
- 7:20Speaker 6: that were accustomed to seeing they're available in the top
- 7:23Speaker 6: ten overall. But I think this is a great opportunity
- 7:25Speaker 6: for teams to add starters on Day two and possibly
- 7:28Speaker 6: even into Day three of this year's draft, with the
- 7:31Speaker 6: amount of depth that's available. But from a Sickos perspective,
- 7:36Speaker 6: I'm probably more excited about this draft than most years because,
- 7:40Speaker 6: you know, last year, we kind of had an idea
- 7:43Speaker 6: of who the first four picks were going to be.
- 7:46Speaker 6: You know, ultimately, we didn't know that Jacksonville was going
- 7:49Speaker 6: to trade up for Travis Hunter until you know, kind
- 7:52Speaker 6: of the last minute, so that added a little bit
- 7:54Speaker 6: of intrigue, But we knew he was probably going to
- 7:56Speaker 6: be the number two overall pick, even if it had
- 7:59Speaker 6: been to the Brown. Whereas this year, I mean there's
- 8:02Speaker 6: conversation at number two overall and every pick thereafter. You know,
- 8:07Speaker 6: the fact that we don't have those obvious blue chip
- 8:10Speaker 6: players in this draft class I think really opens up
- 8:14Speaker 6: the board, so to speak. I mean, you see multiple
- 8:17Speaker 6: players mocked to each team within the top ten overall,
- 8:21Speaker 6: and the rest of the draft cannot fall into place
- 8:24Speaker 6: until those picks are made. So for me, it lacks
- 8:27Speaker 6: the premiere names, But I think it's more exciting just
- 8:31Speaker 6: because we don't necessarily know how it's going to pan out.
- 8:35Speaker 2: You know what, I'm with you, and if you're going
- 8:37Speaker 2: to be a sicko, we'll be sickos together. Sickos on one.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Edward love it. Let's go hands in. Josh Edwards is
- 8:42Speaker 2: with us mockumentarian. He's got his mock draft out. Are
- 8:47Speaker 2: you going to do another one before the draft? You
- 8:50Speaker 2: got another one coming? Yeah?
- 8:52Speaker 6: Okay, this time of year, people love mock drafts, so
- 8:55Speaker 6: you know, we're basically putting them out on a daily
- 8:57Speaker 6: basis at CBS Sports right now. Have one that goes
- 9:00Speaker 6: up this morning. I don't know if it's been published yet.
- 9:03Speaker 6: Oh and the final mock draft will be I guess
- 9:06Speaker 6: a week from today.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I'm looking at the one that they're providing
- 9:09Speaker 2: at CBS Sports with your name on it. So I'm
- 9:12Speaker 2: just going to go off of what you've got here
- 9:14Speaker 2: in front of me, and then if anything has changed,
- 9:17Speaker 2: you correct us. So I want to start with the
- 9:20Speaker 2: Seahawks because I'm selfish like that. I don't know if
- 9:22Speaker 2: you heard, we're world champs up here. They have the
- 9:25Speaker 2: last pick in the first round. That's what happens to
- 9:27Speaker 2: world champs, and so they you've got them in your
- 9:31Speaker 2: mock that I'm looking at going edge rusher TJ. Parker.
- 9:35Speaker 2: That's certainly, in our opinion up here, in play an
- 9:38Speaker 2: edge rusher in the first round. But I also see
- 9:40Speaker 2: that you don't have Jadarian Price going before that, and
- 9:44Speaker 2: I would just ask, if Jadarian Price is there, should
- 9:50Speaker 2: the Seahawks not monkey around with this? Should they just
- 9:54Speaker 2: go Jadarian Price as the thirty second? Okay? Do we
- 9:59Speaker 2: not have them right now? Now? Oh?
- 10:01Speaker 4: We just lost him, Yeah, we just lost him him
- 10:03Speaker 4: right back?
- 10:03Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we lost Josh Edwards. I guess my
- 10:05Speaker 2: question was too long. Maybe he was like, man, I'm
- 10:09Speaker 2: really tired of this guy setting up this question with
- 10:12Speaker 2: all of this fake Christmas stuff. I've had enough. I
- 10:18Speaker 2: got things to do. I got a mock going up.
- 10:21Speaker 2: All right, well we got him back you there, Josh, Yeah.
- 10:26Speaker 6: I mean I guess my opinions on the topic weren't
- 10:29Speaker 6: that desired. You know, you have to kick me off
- 10:32Speaker 6: the air for picking TJ.
- 10:33Speaker 2: Parker, But here I was blaming it on you.
- 10:36Speaker 6: So again, what honestly ahead, man, honestly Yeah.
- 10:41Speaker 2: So at thirty two you have TJ. Parker. I'm wondering
- 10:44Speaker 2: if the Seahawks should just say, hey, we're Ken Walker,
- 10:47Speaker 2: let's let's get a running back, Let's take Jadarian Price.
- 10:49Speaker 2: What do you think about that dilemma?
- 10:52Speaker 6: Right? So, I would think in an ideal situation, John
- 10:57Speaker 6: Schneider is probably wanting to trade back. I think that's
- 11:00Speaker 6: his ideal scenario in which he, you know, could still
- 11:03Speaker 6: come away with Jendarium Price. I just think their willingness
- 11:07Speaker 6: to kind of sit and watch the dominoes fall at
- 11:10Speaker 6: the running back position speaks to I think maybe a
- 11:14Speaker 6: plan in place, maybe a contentness in taking you know,
- 11:20Speaker 6: Jendarium Price, who is not consistently mocked in the first round.
- 11:23Speaker 6: You know, I think Seattle is really the only team
- 11:25Speaker 6: that's been linked to him there in the first round,
- 11:28Speaker 6: But you know, he's been projected to go in that range,
- 11:32Speaker 6: so it's not necessarily a reach. They're just a team
- 11:35Speaker 6: that has the most obvious fit. So I could see
- 11:37Speaker 6: them taking him at number thirty two overall. But really
- 11:40Speaker 6: the objective, and you know, speaking to your acknowledgment of
- 11:44Speaker 6: being the world champions, you've lost a few from I
- 11:49Speaker 6: caught it. Yeah, it was very subtle, but they lost
- 11:53Speaker 6: a few pieces, you know, in free agency, So I
- 11:55Speaker 6: would imagine replenishing some of those players lost, whether it's cornerback,
- 11:59Speaker 6: ed rusher, running back. Of course, as we're talking to,
- 12:02Speaker 6: is the objective here, and I think the ideal outcome
- 12:06Speaker 6: would be trading back a little bit, recouping some additional
- 12:09Speaker 6: draft picks, and still getting a player at one of
- 12:12Speaker 6: those three positions, and ideally Juderian Price, because I do
- 12:16Speaker 6: think that he's a player that can leverage defenders in space,
- 12:19Speaker 6: he's got burst, He's somebody that would be a good
- 12:21Speaker 6: compliment to the battering ram that is Zach Charbonnay when
- 12:25Speaker 6: he returns, So I think that would be a good pairing.
- 12:28Speaker 6: But ultimately, John Schneider is going to let the board
- 12:31Speaker 6: fall and just you know, see what options are available
- 12:33Speaker 6: to him.
- 12:34Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about that number two pick that you
- 12:36Speaker 2: hinted at earlier in the conversation. Do you feel are
- 12:40Speaker 2: you getting the sense that the Jets have decided between
- 12:43Speaker 2: Bailey and r bel Rees or maybe there's somebody else
- 12:47Speaker 2: in play there.
- 12:49Speaker 6: I think it's an interesting discussion, and this is kind
- 12:52Speaker 6: of a dynamic within the NFL draft that people maybe
- 12:56Speaker 6: don't always take into consideration, and that is where a
- 13:00Speaker 6: team falls on their own timeline. I think if you
- 13:04Speaker 6: talk to Aaron Glenn, maybe even the general manager Darren Mugie,
- 13:08Speaker 6: there's some urgency to at least compete, be competitive in
- 13:12Speaker 6: twenty twenty six, because I know everybody is looking at
- 13:14Speaker 6: twenty twenty seven and the possibility they would add a quarterback.
- 13:18Speaker 6: But this is a regime that very much has a
- 13:21Speaker 6: lot on the line in twenty twenty six. If they
- 13:23Speaker 6: don't compete, they're not going to be around in twenty
- 13:26Speaker 6: twenty seven to make those picks in all likelihoods. So
- 13:29Speaker 6: if you're sitting there deciding between rvel Rees, who I
- 13:32Speaker 6: think has a higher ceiling as a player, but is
- 13:34Speaker 6: more of a vision being that he's, you know, an
- 13:37Speaker 6: off ball linebacker. He played off ball linebacker at Ohio State,
- 13:40Speaker 6: but you're projecting him to be a pass rusher at
- 13:42Speaker 6: the next level, Versus David Bailey from Texas Tech, who's
- 13:46Speaker 6: this ready made player. He can step in from day
- 13:48Speaker 6: one and be an immediate impact player. You know, I,
- 13:53Speaker 6: if I felt like I had time, would would take
- 13:57Speaker 6: rees to see that out. But in their current state,
- 14:01Speaker 6: I do think that Bailey makes a lot of sense
- 14:03Speaker 6: just because he's somebody that we know can can help them.
- 14:07Speaker 6: In twenty twenty six.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Josh Edwards is with us a great guest when you
- 14:11Speaker 2: can keep them on the phone from CBS Sports. He
- 14:14Speaker 2: is our mockumentarian today and so we're going over his
- 14:18Speaker 2: most recent mock draft, which might have changed as he's
- 14:21Speaker 2: getting ready to post a brand new one. So we'll
- 14:24Speaker 2: be here to find out maybe some of those nitty
- 14:26Speaker 2: gritty details. I love that you will incorporate a trade.
- 14:30Speaker 2: Where do you think the most logical place for a
- 14:33Speaker 2: trade is going to happen? When's the first trade going
- 14:35Speaker 2: to be made on the board.
- 14:38Speaker 6: Well, if you love trades, you're gonna love the mock
- 14:39Speaker 6: draft that comes up on CBS Sports today. I do
- 14:42Speaker 6: have five wow in this Yeah, you know it gets
- 14:46Speaker 6: to the point where you're just like, Okay, I know
- 14:48Speaker 6: this team wants this position, so if you're this other
- 14:51Speaker 6: team that wants that position, you have to get in
- 14:53Speaker 6: front of that team. So I try to be a
- 14:55Speaker 6: little bit more creative with it this week. But the
- 14:58Speaker 6: first really domino that I could see in this draft
- 15:03Speaker 6: is number six overall with the Browns. And that's not
- 15:06Speaker 6: to say that teams before the Browns would not want
- 15:08Speaker 6: to trade back. I think there's a strong argument for
- 15:10Speaker 6: the Giants the Cardinals at number five and number three respectively,
- 15:14Speaker 6: to do so, but the Browns historically want to trade
- 15:19Speaker 6: back accumulate additional draft capital. And there are two teams
- 15:23Speaker 6: that I kind of look at as being the most
- 15:25Speaker 6: likely to move up, and that's the Cowboys and the Rams.
- 15:29Speaker 6: The Cowboys have gotten the most smoke, I would say
- 15:32Speaker 6: to this point about a team that can move up
- 15:33Speaker 6: the board likely targeting one of those remaining defensive stars,
- 15:38Speaker 6: whether that's Sunny Styles, the linebacker from Ohio State or
- 15:42Speaker 6: Caleb Downs, the safety from Ohio State. Maybe one of
- 15:46Speaker 6: those pass rushers is still available there. So that's the
- 15:50Speaker 6: first that's the first possibility I really see as a
- 15:54Speaker 6: team looking to move up the board to get one
- 15:56Speaker 6: of these players. And I do think we're going to
- 15:58Speaker 6: see maybe some smaller scale trades in this year's draft class.
- 16:02Speaker 6: Teams have been more flexible, I think with the values
- 16:05Speaker 6: they're willing to accept in exchange for their pick. As
- 16:08Speaker 6: we've kind of seen these more modern trade value charts
- 16:13Speaker 6: come of age here in the past couple of years,
- 16:14Speaker 6: I think we're going to see, you know, multiple trades,
- 16:18Speaker 6: just maybe not to the same scale as we've seen
- 16:20Speaker 6: in the past.
- 16:21Speaker 2: As someone that's obviously done a deep dive or ten
- 16:24Speaker 2: on all of this, on this very topic, the NFL
- 16:28Speaker 2: Draft topic, give us, give our audience a juicy rumor
- 16:32Speaker 2: that you believe is going to happen, your juiciest one
- 16:35Speaker 2: that you've got right at your fingertips. Maybe you got
- 16:38Speaker 2: it from a colleague, maybe you got it from a source.
- 16:41Speaker 2: But share with us a juicy thread that you think
- 16:45Speaker 2: that will come true on Thursday.
- 16:49Speaker 6: Well, I would have said the Cowboys trading up, because
- 16:53Speaker 6: that's the thought that I've held pre dating the combine.
- 16:55Speaker 6: But I've already used that bullet in the chamber.
- 16:58Speaker 2: So let's give us a three.
- 17:02Speaker 6: Yeah, let's just HAVEMP you a clip here.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Who got a player that's flying up the board that
- 17:08Speaker 2: you believe? I mean, I see you got Carneal Tit
- 17:10Speaker 2: at five. If you did this a week ago, you
- 17:12Speaker 2: were ahead of the rumors with Carnel Tait.
- 17:15Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, Carnel Tate's you know, I think his floor
- 17:18Speaker 6: is going to be probably we'll say number nine overall.
- 17:21Speaker 6: To be conservative, I would say there's a handful of
- 17:24Speaker 6: players that you know could get into the first round.
- 17:27Speaker 6: I think this is a draft where you know, you
- 17:30Speaker 6: look at the top thirty two on the consensus board
- 17:32Speaker 6: and you say, all right, these are our first round picks.
- 17:34Speaker 6: But that's not going to be the case this year.
- 17:36Speaker 6: There's you know, upwards of ten additional players that we
- 17:40Speaker 6: could really see crack that first round. And I'll just
- 17:44Speaker 6: mention some of them. UCF Edge Rusher Malchi, Lawrence, San
- 17:49Speaker 6: Diego State cornerback Chris Johnson. There's a couple of offensive guards.
- 17:55Speaker 6: I prefer Texas A and M's Chase Psaltis just because
- 17:59Speaker 6: of his past blocking abilities. But you may hear Georgia
- 18:04Speaker 6: Tech's Keeland Rutledge and Oregon's Emmanuel Pregnon as a couple
- 18:08Speaker 6: of players that you know could threaten into the first
- 18:11Speaker 6: round as well. So those would be I think a
- 18:13Speaker 6: handful of the players that at least have you know,
- 18:17Speaker 6: eyes for as we get in the later parts of
- 18:20Speaker 6: the first round. And you know, to be honest, John
- 18:22Speaker 6: Snyder is one that often leaves us swinging and missing
- 18:26Speaker 6: at curveballs. So if he were the one that makes
- 18:29Speaker 6: a pick that we did not see coming, that would
- 18:31Speaker 6: not surprise me at all.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Well, lately his repertoires are just a nasty slider, like
- 18:36Speaker 2: he's not even messing around with curves anymore. He's he's
- 18:41Speaker 2: increased his arsenal as of late. Josh Edwards says with us,
- 18:44Speaker 2: all right, I asked this, of all of our mock
- 18:46Speaker 2: draft guests, who is your favorite player in this draft?
- 18:50Speaker 2: Not the best, but Josh Edwards special, the guy that
- 18:55Speaker 2: you think might get underdrafted, and yet you believe he's
- 18:59Speaker 2: going to be special, even if your colleagues don't feel
- 19:02Speaker 2: that way.
- 19:04Speaker 6: Yeah, let's see who am I the biggest outlier on
- 19:08Speaker 6: There's a number of like Day two, Day three guys
- 19:11Speaker 6: that you know we could, oh oh, we could really
- 19:15Speaker 6: get into. And I actually just had a story on
- 19:18Speaker 6: this yesterday at CBS Sports About my guys in this
- 19:21Speaker 6: year's draft class, I'll say a couple of defensive linemen.
- 19:26Speaker 6: You know, I know that's not a sexy or flashy position,
- 19:29Speaker 6: but a couple of guys that I've just liked throughout
- 19:32Speaker 6: this process and they kind of have similar profiles. Nick
- 19:35Speaker 6: Barrett from South Carolina, Chris McClellan from Missouri. Both of
- 19:40Speaker 6: those guys I believe are outside of the consensus top
- 19:43Speaker 6: one hundred overall, but I look at both of them
- 19:47Speaker 6: and they have a skill set that is really transferable
- 19:50Speaker 6: to the NFL right now, which is we're starting to
- 19:53Speaker 6: see teams be a little bit more big personnel centric,
- 19:57Speaker 6: start leaning more into heavy personnel because you know, we
- 20:01Speaker 6: saw all this spread action over the past decade and
- 20:04Speaker 6: teams started to get a little bit smaller. So now
- 20:06Speaker 6: we're swinging back in the other direction where we're starting
- 20:09Speaker 6: to embrace more heavy personnel. Yet again, the blocking tight ends.
- 20:14Speaker 6: And so I'm going to say McClellan and Barrett because
- 20:18Speaker 6: both of those guys may not have like pass rusher juice,
- 20:22Speaker 6: but they are very stout in the run game. They're
- 20:26Speaker 6: going to immediately upgrade the floor and the ceiling of
- 20:31Speaker 6: any run defense, and I think that's incredibly valuable in
- 20:34Speaker 6: today's NFL. I could see both of those, you know,
- 20:37Speaker 6: ten years down the road, still playing in the NFL
- 20:39Speaker 6: and being quality picks that were found on day three,
- 20:43Speaker 6: I guess if you're looking at the consensus big board.
- 20:45Speaker 6: But it would not surprise me if we heard their
- 20:48Speaker 6: names on day two either.
- 20:49Speaker 2: All right, well, mock three times on the ceiling if
- 20:52Speaker 2: you want him. He is the mactologist over there at
- 20:55Speaker 2: CBS Sports and our mockumentarian one week shy of the
- 21:00Speaker 2: NFL Draft, Josh Edwards, CBS Sports. So we tend to
- 21:03Speaker 2: have him on every year. Love having him on, and
- 21:06Speaker 2: he's going to have a brand new mock out a
- 21:07Speaker 2: little bit later on today and we urge all of
- 21:10Speaker 2: our listeners to go gobble it up. So thank you man,
- 21:12Speaker 2: we appreciate it. Have a very merry draft, miss and
- 21:15Speaker 2: probably talk to you next year.
- 21:18Speaker 6: How many more times you think you're going to listen
- 21:20Speaker 6: to that song between now and next Thursday.
- 21:22Speaker 2: One thousand, one thousand to one thousand five times? Yeah,
- 21:26Speaker 2: do you want it? Would you like us to send
- 21:28Speaker 2: over a copy so that you can play? Yeah?
- 21:30Speaker 6: You know what, send an empty four over to me.
- 21:32Speaker 6: I may listen to that myself. Okay, there's a pleasure.
- 21:35Speaker 6: Thank thank you for having me on.
- 21:37Speaker 2: All right, there he is Josh Edwards. Good ear for
- 21:40Speaker 2: music too. That guy joining us right here on Chuck
- 21:43Speaker 2: and Buck in the Mornings is coming up next to
- 21:45Speaker 2: your ABC's of the MS. If we're not going to
- 21:48Speaker 2: talk about the headline, what on earth are we going
- 21:51Speaker 2: to talk about after that game last night? Find out
- 21:53Speaker 2: next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. But obviously
- 21:57Speaker 2: we had a baseball game last night that made us
- 21:59Speaker 2: all furious.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Yeah, very angry.
- 22:01Speaker 2: We will talk about the issue of the game last
- 22:05Speaker 2: night Andres Munnos in great detail coming up at eight o'clock.
- 22:07Speaker 2: But the ABC's of the MS, who knows where the
- 22:10Speaker 2: ab seeds of the MS might take us our daily
- 22:12Speaker 2: Mariners segment, which we allow the alphabet to be our
- 22:16Speaker 2: guide through a few different topics, and we'll see where
- 22:19Speaker 2: we end up. We left off of the letter J.
- 22:21Speaker 2: So Jay is for Jackson, as in Jackson Merrill, who
- 22:25Speaker 2: not only had the game winning hit last night for
- 22:28Speaker 2: the Padres, also robbed another home run from the Mariners team.
- 22:33Speaker 2: And this one I'm kind of with Angie, I thought,
- 22:35Speaker 2: more athletically impressive than the Joe Adell three from a
- 22:40Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago. Man, they got way up over
- 22:44Speaker 2: the wall to take one away from Julio Rodriguez. And
- 22:47Speaker 2: I don't know why this is happening so frequently, but
- 22:50Speaker 2: it's happening also, Ashley, to the guys we're waiting to
- 22:54Speaker 2: break out, like officially not for one game, Josh right, Well,
- 22:57Speaker 2: the guys that were waiting to break out, I mean, Raleigh, Naylor,
- 23:02Speaker 2: and Julio have all been robbed of home runs and
- 23:06Speaker 2: we are only what nineteen games into the season. I mean,
- 23:10Speaker 2: how this is something that happens maybe a couple of
- 23:12Speaker 2: times during the year. We've already had four home runs
- 23:15Speaker 2: taken away from us, and that was a no doubter
- 23:18Speaker 2: home run that Merrill took away.
- 23:19Speaker 4: Yeah, I was baffled by it. I thought, how is
- 23:22Speaker 4: this just? How I mean?
- 23:25Speaker 3: And I will say Luke had a great catch for
- 23:27Speaker 3: us at the wall that I don't think was a
- 23:29Speaker 3: home run, just a great catch. So it does happen
- 23:32Speaker 3: on both ways, but it feels like it's happening more
- 23:34Speaker 3: to us than to other people.
- 23:36Speaker 2: It's happening not only is it happening more to the Mariner.
- 23:39Speaker 2: It's happening more to the twenty twenty six Mariners than
- 23:41Speaker 2: anyone ever.
- 23:42Speaker 4: Yeah, that's yes, that's I That is how it feels.
- 23:46Speaker 3: And I don't like it, and I don't I mean,
- 23:48Speaker 3: I don't want to celebrate the athleticism because I'm too irritated.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I mean, they blew a six nothing lead. They have
- 23:53Speaker 2: nobody really the problem they lost. They blew a six
- 23:56Speaker 2: nothing lead in Moonos was not sharp. But if you
- 23:59Speaker 2: had an eight nothing Lee, yeah.
- 24:01Speaker 4: We would have won by one. No maybe not well.
- 24:03Speaker 2: No, I mean sometimes teams they went into the ninth
- 24:07Speaker 2: inning trailing by four. Nobody thinks they're out of the game.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Trailing by four with three outs to go. Nobody. You're
- 24:13Speaker 2: down eight at one point, and you might say to yourself,
- 24:18Speaker 2: you know what, let's take Machado out. You might do
- 24:21Speaker 2: stuff like that. U. Yeah, so you might use a
- 24:26Speaker 2: different picture that gets lit up at that point. So
- 24:29Speaker 2: sliding doors with baseball, you never know what was gonna happen.
- 24:32Speaker 2: It certainly didn't help the cause that Julio had a
- 24:36Speaker 2: home run taken away from him last night. And man,
- 24:39Speaker 2: it is happening way too frequently, but it was a
- 24:41Speaker 2: great catch. K is for killer. I need to see
- 24:46Speaker 2: the killer personality of Luis Castillo. We have seen him.
- 24:53Speaker 2: We described it a lot, Bucky and myself, kind of
- 24:56Speaker 2: playing to the moment, playing to the atmosphere, playing to
- 24:59Speaker 2: the situ. Wait, we've watched Luis Castillo in a playoff
- 25:03Speaker 2: game just absolutely destroy the Toronto Blue Jays. They had
- 25:07Speaker 2: no hope against him. We have seen him in big games,
- 25:10Speaker 2: in big cathedrals and big moments. We saw him in
- 25:14Speaker 2: Yankee Stadium a couple of times where he rises to
- 25:18Speaker 2: the occasion. He feeds off the adrenaline of that and
- 25:20Speaker 2: has been just lights out. But we've also seen him.
- 25:23Speaker 2: I mean, he's the guy that collapsed against the Kansas
- 25:26Speaker 2: City Royals that year that we lost an eleven run lead.
- 25:30Speaker 2: We've also seen him be that guy and not rise
- 25:33Speaker 2: to the occasions. If the stadium's not full, maybe he's
- 25:37Speaker 2: not one hundred percent locked in at that point. We've
- 25:40Speaker 2: seen that guy. Look, we are nineteen games into the season.
- 25:43Speaker 2: This is not like make or break time. We're not
- 25:47Speaker 2: anywhere close to that in the Mariners season. But for
- 25:51Speaker 2: Luis Castillo personally, I just watched Emerson Hancock throw his
- 25:56Speaker 2: fourth great game in a row, right, and we have
- 26:01Speaker 2: not seen the Rock be great once this year. We've
- 26:03Speaker 2: seen him be pretty good once. We've also seen him
- 26:06Speaker 2: bad two times. Yeah, I need the killer version of
- 26:11Speaker 2: Luis Castile. I want this to be a difficult decision.
- 26:14Speaker 2: I want and I don't want this to come to
- 26:18Speaker 2: having to tap such an accomplished, beloved, respected player in
- 26:24Speaker 2: that locker room, having to tap him on the shoulder
- 26:26Speaker 2: in May and saying we got to move you to
- 26:28Speaker 2: the bullpen because you're just our worst starter right now.
- 26:31Speaker 2: So I need killer Castillo tonight. Yeah.
- 26:34Speaker 3: Well, and we need him too, just for the fact
- 26:36Speaker 3: that you can't get swept by the Padres. You can't
- 26:38Speaker 3: lose tonight after that loss yesterday because you don't want
- 26:41Speaker 3: to start another skin. And last night's loss was probably
- 26:44Speaker 3: really I mean, we were all mad, they were real mad,
- 26:47Speaker 3: So you can't. You got to come back. The whole
- 26:49Speaker 3: team has to have that killer mentality. Be behind Luise,
- 26:51Speaker 3: get him fired up and let's see it.
- 26:54Speaker 2: Yeah. I need the good version of you. Yeah, I mean,
- 26:57Speaker 2: I need the best version of the Rock. I mean,
- 26:59Speaker 2: we're not to the point where we're must wins and
- 27:01Speaker 2: we got to salvage a game, and we're not anywhere
- 27:03Speaker 2: close to that point. But in terms of this competition
- 27:08Speaker 2: for this five man rotation, as I said yesterday and
- 27:10Speaker 2: reckless at breakfast, I don't want to go to six games.
- 27:13Speaker 2: I really don't want to send Emerson Hancock down to Tacoma.
- 27:16Speaker 2: I don't want any I don't want him going to
- 27:18Speaker 2: the bullpen the way he's pitching right now. Yeah, I mean,
- 27:21Speaker 2: and I don't want. I mean, somebody's gonna get bad news.
- 27:26Speaker 2: And I don't want to delay Bryce Miller's return because
- 27:29Speaker 2: I think he's gonna have a great year this year.
- 27:31Speaker 2: But Luis Castille, what we what we need to see
- 27:34Speaker 2: out of you is you can't be dramatically worse than
- 27:40Speaker 2: the other five guys and hold on to your starting
- 27:43Speaker 2: spot in a rotation where we're trying to win a
- 27:45Speaker 2: World Series this year.
- 27:46Speaker 4: As you said, don't make it easy for them to
- 27:48Speaker 4: make that choice.
- 27:50Speaker 2: L Is for Luke, and we touched upon this at
- 27:53Speaker 2: the top of the hour. Didn't touch upound it at
- 27:55Speaker 2: all in the first hour. And it's a shame because
- 27:57Speaker 2: you end up losing the game and the headline changes
- 28:00Speaker 2: the headline of this game should have been Luke Rayley's
- 28:02Speaker 2: on fire, and he and Randy Rose Arena right now
- 28:05Speaker 2: are locked in right now and back to back in
- 28:09Speaker 2: the lineup the way that they are. I mean, yes,
- 28:11Speaker 2: the offense did enough last night to score six runs.
- 28:14Speaker 2: We should have win that game, but we're we're kind
- 28:18Speaker 2: of right now not taking full advantage of those two
- 28:23Speaker 2: hitting back to back in the order being as hot
- 28:26Speaker 2: as they are right now, and there are no Fluke
- 28:29Speaker 2: Kits Gavin Sheets coming off the bat of Luke Rayley.
- 28:31Speaker 2: He's crushing everything and then when he doesn't crush it,
- 28:34Speaker 2: he lays down a really smart, awesome butt down the
- 28:36Speaker 2: third baseline.
- 28:37Speaker 4: So hustles.
- 28:38Speaker 2: We've got two guys absolutely on fire, and we don't
- 28:44Speaker 2: have anybody consistently driving them in canzone had a nice
- 28:47Speaker 2: hit last night, and we don't have our big three
- 28:49Speaker 2: getting on base for them either, And it feels like
- 28:52Speaker 2: we're wasting an opportunity for Luke Rayley and Randy Rose
- 28:55Speaker 2: Arena to kind of be. We should be posting wins
- 28:59Speaker 2: right now as ridiculously hot as those two guys.
- 29:01Speaker 3: We're celebrating how awesome they are playing, versus having to
- 29:04Speaker 3: talk about the ugliness of a terrible loss.
- 29:06Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't know if it continues for Luke.
- 29:08Speaker 2: I mean it's you know, every major league hitter, every
- 29:12Speaker 2: hitter at every level, has hot streaks, has cold streaks.
- 29:16Speaker 2: Some are hotter than others, some are colder than others,
- 29:18Speaker 2: some are longer than others or shorter than others. Right now,
- 29:22Speaker 2: he's never been locked in like this. I mean, I
- 29:25Speaker 2: think you'd said earlier he's back. No, no, no, no, this
- 29:28Speaker 2: thing I've never seen before.
- 29:30Speaker 4: Well, yeah, he's when because he had a good year.
- 29:33Speaker 4: Then of course the injuries.
- 29:34Speaker 3: So now he's back like he would have been had
- 29:36Speaker 3: he gotten better last year and then better now.
- 29:38Speaker 2: Well, I've never seen this version of Luke Rayley before,
- 29:41Speaker 2: and I and it's not gonna last. I mean, it
- 29:44Speaker 2: just isn't. I mean, I mean, he might be back
- 29:47Speaker 2: to the player he was two years ago, maybe even
- 29:50Speaker 2: a little better this year than he was two years ago,
- 29:53Speaker 2: and that's a that's a great thing. But he's we're
- 29:56Speaker 2: not going to ever see him be this hot. I mean,
- 29:58Speaker 2: he is squaring everything up, he's hitting too lo fields,
- 30:00Speaker 2: he's hitting for power, he's playing smart baseball, and we
- 30:05Speaker 2: didn't get a win out of the last two nights,
- 30:08Speaker 2: even though Luke Raley is playing awesome.
- 30:10Speaker 3: Yeah, and I would like us to start taking advantage
- 30:12Speaker 3: of how awesome he's playing.
- 30:13Speaker 2: All right, we will talk more about the Andres Munnos
- 30:18Speaker 2: meltdown coming up at eight o'clock this morning. Coming up next.
- 30:22Speaker 2: We are just one week away the Draftmas. Holiday has
- 30:25Speaker 2: been so special this year. I seen so many friends,
- 30:28Speaker 2: so many family members, so many loved ones. I've eaten
- 30:31Speaker 2: so much draftnog. I think I've put on like fourteen pounds.
- 30:35Speaker 4: It's the season though.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I got a bunch of parties to attend. If
- 30:39Speaker 2: I can't make them all, sorry in advance, but that's
- 30:42Speaker 2: draft miss Sometimes you got three parties scheduled at ones.
- 30:45Speaker 2: What are you gonna do about it?
- 30:46Speaker 4: Gotta attend them all?
- 30:47Speaker 2: Yeah, well you try. But you know, I'm only one
- 30:50Speaker 2: father Draftmas. So we'll really start ramping it up next.
- 30:55Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
- 30:58Speaker 7: So this is almost the combine visits and pro days
- 31:03Speaker 7: in the rear view mirror, which Snyder bucks. We'll spell
- 31:08Speaker 7: him to build a team to dominate it in the fall.
- 31:15Speaker 2: It's beginning to look.
- 31:17Speaker 4: A lot live Draftmas.
- 31:20Speaker 7: All the prospects are placed on the big board with care,
- 31:25Speaker 7: Miss Boles. Johnny Coles will soon be there with the
- 31:30Speaker 7: green roof full of prospects and the twelves in their
- 31:34Speaker 7: swag hoping Johnny claw pools, Shohanny Toys out of his
- 31:38Speaker 7: draft ms bat.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Hey, Happy drafts everybody. We are just seven sleeps away
- 31:44Speaker 2: from the actual NFL Draft. We had Josh Edwards on
- 31:48Speaker 2: It's Our Mockumentarian earlier this hour. Did he really stick
- 31:51Speaker 2: on the line to get the song for us?
- 31:53Speaker 3: I email it to him. He didn't stick on the line,
- 31:55Speaker 3: but I emailed it to him.
- 31:56Speaker 2: Yeah, because that's gotta get We gotta get CBS behind that.
- 31:58Speaker 2: He's got to share with all his raft buddies there

- 32:06Speaker 2: CBS Sports, So they need to share that, you know,
- 32:10Speaker 2: shared at parties, put it out on their socials.
- 32:13Speaker 3: Absolutely, you know, absolutely a freak asolutely.
- 32:18Speaker 2: Build this thing up a little more. I mean, I
- 32:20Speaker 2: know it's a global phenomenon, but maybe it hasn't really
- 32:23Speaker 2: caught on everywhere.
- 32:26Speaker 4: It's on its way, Yeah, it's not to be intergalactic.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Yeah, he was our mockumentarian today and then he came
- 32:31Speaker 2: out us today with like all eight arms of analysis.
- 32:35Speaker 2: He was like the moctopus.
- 32:41Speaker 3: And when I was dizzied, oh just watching all his
- 32:45Speaker 3: all those arms just flail them draft picks all around.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Those arms of analyzes coming at me from every direction. Yeah,
- 32:52Speaker 2: the octopus was in the house at seven o'clock today.

- 33:25Speaker 2: I still, I mean, I'm father Draftnis and I still
- 33:28Speaker 2: can't believe that over one hundred thousand people show up
- 33:31Speaker 2: and pack the streets all day long just to watch
- 33:35Speaker 2: college football players walk on a stage in a suit,
- 33:37Speaker 2: put a hat on.
- 33:38Speaker 3: The schools in Pittsburgh are are studying from home, they
- 33:42Speaker 3: are doing virtual learning right because of the draft. Because
- 33:44Speaker 3: there's so many people that will be in Pittsburgh.
- 33:48Speaker 2: I mean they're going to have an experience, but maybe
- 33:53Speaker 2: yours is better. Talala Persort Casino because you know, down times,

- 34:19Speaker 2: there are a lot of people out there that have
- 34:22Speaker 2: taken the stands. Oh, it's a down year. I mean
- 34:25Speaker 2: we don't know that. I mean it's a down year.
- 34:28Speaker 2: We don't have multiple quarterbacks. Maybe we don't have the
- 34:34Speaker 2: typical you know, five or six big time players or storylines.
- 34:40Speaker 4: Yeah, the big faces that everybody recognizes.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Yeah, but i mean we've got depth that we got.
- 34:47Speaker 2: It's a great class for tackles, it's a great class
- 34:49Speaker 2: for edge rushers. It's a great class for wide receivers.
- 34:53Speaker 2: It's a good class for cornerbacks. This is the chance
- 34:55Speaker 2: to fatten up in those areas. Yeah, you know and so,
- 34:59Speaker 2: and it doesn't really matter. The puzzle making aspect of
- 35:03Speaker 2: it is what we love. The marriage between college and
- 35:05Speaker 2: pros is what we love. It's not getting the sizzle
- 35:11Speaker 2: right now seven days shy because we know who's going
- 35:15Speaker 2: number one, and because it's a question of edge rushers
- 35:20Speaker 2: at number two, and because we haven't had any trades
- 35:23Speaker 2: to this point to shake things up. Trades are what
- 35:26Speaker 2: make the NFL draft. They are speculating, and it's speculation.
- 35:30Speaker 2: Who knows, And we get this every single year from people,
- 35:35Speaker 2: and they always predict a lot of trades. They always predict,
- 35:39Speaker 2: so that's consistent. They're doing it again this year. But
- 35:44Speaker 2: Albert Brier just said yesterday that three through seven are
- 35:48Speaker 2: all looking to trade down in this draft. And so
- 35:51Speaker 2: I do think that we're going to get to Draft
- 35:53Speaker 2: Day and there's going to be a lot of moving
- 35:55Speaker 2: around pieces and I think, okay, maybe the build upped,
- 36:00Speaker 2: it will be a little less than we're accustomed to.
- 36:03Speaker 2: But I think the actual fur flying on Thursday, seven
- 36:08Speaker 2: days from now is gonna be significant.
- 36:10Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's gonna be exciting.
- 36:12Speaker 3: And the Draft is always exciting because there are gonna
- 36:14Speaker 3: be things that we couldn't predict or didn't expect and
- 36:16Speaker 3: it's gonna happen. And no, it's not gonna Sorry, but
- 36:19Speaker 3: no one's mock draft is gonna be absolutely one hundred
- 36:22Speaker 3: percent correct.
- 36:23Speaker 2: It never is.
- 36:24Speaker 4: Yeah, so there are things that will be exciting.
- 36:26Speaker 2: It is.
- 36:27Speaker 4: I mean I feel like we've been hearing that a
- 36:28Speaker 4: lot lately. Though.
- 36:29Speaker 3: The super Bowl wasn't exciting because you didn't have all
- 36:33Speaker 3: of these what everybody considers superstars, or you just weren't
- 36:36Speaker 3: paying attention to the people that were burgeoning superstars. I mean,
- 36:40Speaker 3: you had the NFL's best offensive player play and I'm
- 36:43Speaker 3: pretty sure he's a superstar, and so you had some
- 36:46Speaker 3: great storylines. Again, but you have to actually look, and
- 36:49Speaker 3: I think people get lazy. They don't want to look
- 36:51Speaker 3: for the storylines and the excitement and where that stuff
- 36:53Speaker 3: is hidden. They want it delivered to them on a platter.
- 36:57Speaker 3: They want Patrick Holmes, Travis Kelce, Andy Reid, Taylor Slift.
- 37:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's absolutely dead on, and I think
- 37:04Speaker 2: that that's lazy, and maybe we can't keep the average
- 37:08Speaker 2: fan or less than average fan from doing that. But
- 37:11Speaker 2: I expect more out of our reporters. I expect more
- 37:15Speaker 2: out of guys that cover the National Football League for
- 37:18Speaker 2: a living. I expected more out of talk show hosts.
- 37:20Speaker 2: And if there was one talk show host that said
- 37:23Speaker 2: that the matchup between the Seahawks and the Patriots was boring,
- 37:26Speaker 2: when you have two teams that have kind of written
- 37:31Speaker 2: Cinderella stories that there weren't any stars, you just hadn't
- 37:34Speaker 2: watched football that way year. You are only attracted to
- 37:38Speaker 2: shiny objects. You were only attracted. You didn't want to
- 37:41Speaker 2: do any work to see how good the two teams were,
- 37:44Speaker 2: particularly the Seahawks at the Super Bowl. And I think
- 37:48Speaker 2: the same thing can be said here. You know number
- 37:51Speaker 2: two player is r vel Ree Well. I would have
- 37:53Speaker 2: had to watch Ohio State play defense too in order
- 37:57Speaker 2: to like him.
- 37:58Speaker 3: Which if you weren't watching them play defense, really missing Outah.
- 38:01Speaker 2: David Bailey, I'm supposed to get excited about David Well.
- 38:05Speaker 2: I saw David Bailey kind of just wreck an entire
- 38:08Speaker 2: offense and almost what a playoff game by himself against
- 38:11Speaker 2: Oregon because Oregon was kicking the crap out of the
- 38:14Speaker 2: Red Raiders in every other way, and he was keeping
- 38:16Speaker 2: him in it. If you, I mean, if you weren't,
- 38:19Speaker 2: if you were watching that game and didn't notice David Bailey,
- 38:22Speaker 2: you were not. You weren't watching the game, You weren't
- 38:25Speaker 2: watching football. So to me, I'm with Josh Edwards, and
- 38:29Speaker 2: I think maybe maybe you have to really be into it.
- 38:33Speaker 2: I mean too, I actually like drafts like this, you know,
- 38:37Speaker 2: I don't want one through six to be solved already.
- 38:41Speaker 2: I like that there's intrigue at number two. I like
- 38:43Speaker 2: that they're talking about a lot of trades but they
- 38:45Speaker 2: haven't been made yet. I like the speculation that goes
- 38:48Speaker 2: into it, the rumors that go into it, and it
- 38:51Speaker 2: sounds like and I know that a lot of people
- 38:53Speaker 2: that do this for a living, even more so than
- 38:55Speaker 2: I do, you know, on our show, but guys that
- 38:58Speaker 2: actually just are fl draft writers, they're all pumped for it,
- 39:03Speaker 2: and they are very good reasons. So I think there's
- 39:06Speaker 2: a lot of interesting stuff that's going to start going
- 39:08Speaker 2: down on Thursday, and frankly, I'm here for as much
- 39:13Speaker 2: mystery as we can possibly keep from us as draft
- 39:18Speaker 2: fans until Thursday. I can't even stand it when Adam
- 39:21Speaker 2: Schefter announces the pick before the pick is made.
- 39:24Speaker 3: It's so annoying. You don't have to be first on
- 39:27Speaker 3: the draft pick. Everyone is watching the draft. Just wait
- 39:30Speaker 3: ten seconds. You don't even actually have to tweet out
- 39:34Speaker 3: what the draft pick is because everybody else is doing it.
- 39:37Speaker 3: It doesn't matter who's first. It's all the same information,
- 39:40Speaker 3: and people are trying to watch it on TV.
- 39:42Speaker 4: Stop being a selfish turg.
- 39:43Speaker 2: Well, they actually put the wraps on that. Like, he
- 39:46Speaker 2: doesn't do it as much anymore. He does it though
- 39:49Speaker 2: three years ago he was doing it on every pick. Yeah,
- 39:51Speaker 2: it was so annoying and the NFL said stop. Yeah,
- 39:54Speaker 2: so they kind of cuffed him at that point. So
- 39:57Speaker 2: we don't have to do with it as much. But yes,
- 40:00Speaker 2: the point's the same. I want the intrigue, i want
- 40:04Speaker 2: the mystery.
- 40:05Speaker 4: I want to hear the ding.
- 40:06Speaker 2: I'm all right that we don't have any moves because
- 40:08Speaker 2: we can save them all for Draft Day. I've always
- 40:11Speaker 2: been a kid that wanted to open my presence on
- 40:13Speaker 2: draft on Christmas Day. I didn't want us to have
- 40:16Speaker 2: six days of pre openings.
- 40:18Speaker 3: No, exactly, you got we got one on Christmas Eve,
- 40:20Speaker 3: and then so we could get some little tidbit on
- 40:24Speaker 3: Draftmas Eve appetizer. Yeah, and then on Draft Day then
- 40:27Speaker 3: we get all of the all of the goodness, and
- 40:29Speaker 3: we get the didity, the music, and then we get
- 40:33Speaker 3: the draft pick. We don't get the Oh, refresh my
- 40:36Speaker 3: X feed and find out who the draft pick is.
- 40:38Speaker 2: All right, coming up next?
- 40:39Speaker 5: Uh?
- 40:39Speaker 2: Why did Andre's Munjos blow that game last night? How
- 40:43Speaker 2: dare you? Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ RFM
