part two of this mock draft. It's

2:42

on the way today. We did picks

2:44

one through 16 yesterday Would

2:47

we like to do a formal recap or we just get a tell everybody

2:49

go back and listen to yesterday show? I Guess

2:54

we could do a recap. How about we sure

2:57

like the last five picks? And

2:59

if you want the full thing they go back and

3:01

listen starting with the Cardinals at 11 Oh,

3:03

why are the Cardinals picking at 11? You should go back

3:05

and listen. Oh weird like that That's the

3:07

sixth pick so that would have been

3:09

a surprise Pick

3:12

five would have been 12 with bow nicks going

3:14

to the Broncos math. We're doing great with

3:16

math, right? Yeah So

3:18

pick 12 the Broncos drafted bow nicks that

3:20

was a Joe Marino selection Kyle does odds

3:23

Joe does evens Quinn

3:25

y'all Mitchell cornerback to the Raiders Troy

3:27

Fotano off It's a tackle to the

3:30

Saints Cooper Dajean corner to the Colts

3:32

at 15 Jackson power to Johnson Center

3:34

to the Seattle Seahawks It's 16 last

3:37

five picks You

3:40

dive in right in with me

3:42

yesterday Time out sorry,

3:45

I know I'm burning one really early. I'm on

3:47

my Mike McDaniel energy today Was

3:50

that the most efficient mock draft podcast we've

3:52

ever done we were done in

3:54

like 28 minutes Yeah,

3:57

well we had some chalky stuff to kind of get through

4:00

I think this is work. It's a little complicated.

4:02

Yeah, I mean there's less options

4:07

More to think about I think towards the end here I Definitely

4:10

think there's more to think about here for a lot of

4:13

these teams You know because there's good

4:15

players left on the voice like significantly good

4:17

players left on the board on

4:20

a number of key spots So

4:22

I guess I should do

4:24

the jingle, huh? And

4:27

that the done done done done with

4:29

the 17th pick the Jacksonville

4:31

Jaguars are on the clock I Did

4:35

not come in with a pick prepared this whole dramatic

4:37

effect had all might to think about it, you know

4:39

Yeah, I was neglectful of the overnight. It'd

4:42

be like the team 33

4:44

coming out on Friday real draft and burning

4:46

their whole clock and getting skipped right away

4:49

you go. Oh Jackson

4:52

on the tough team though because Jacksonville spent a lot

4:54

of money they Brought

4:57

a lot of bodies in whether

4:59

it's wide receiver or offensive line

5:01

or Defensive line with

5:04

Josh Allen back on the franchise tag

5:06

and signing here at armstead. They brought

5:08

in some DB help. I Still

5:11

think corners probably like the

5:13

spot Yes, you feel

5:16

like you've got a really obvious upgrade

5:18

opportunity with an intersection with where I think there's

5:20

a really good player on the board in

5:23

Taryon Arnold So I'm gonna

5:25

make Taryon Arnold from Alabama cornerback

5:27

the pick to pair with Tyson Campbell

5:30

and You know if

5:32

you need the vet player in Ronald Darby to contribute

5:34

for you early He can but I

5:36

like Arnold stepping into the as the

5:39

next piece in that revamped secondary for

5:41

Jacksonville Kyle the

5:43

Cincinnati Bengals a pick 18. I feel like this

5:45

is really easy We're picking

5:47

Brock Bowers the tight end from Georgia

5:50

I'm intrigued by Mike is sickie with this offense,

5:52

but that's not a long-term solution Brock

5:55

Bowers can be like an impact option

5:58

for this team We

6:00

went through last week and talked about the

6:02

biggest hole remaining for every team. And with

6:05

Cincinnati, it was all about solidifying the options,

6:08

the weapons offensively

6:10

beyond Jamar Chase. Well, here's a

6:12

heck of a way to

6:14

add to that with Brock Bowers, the tight end out

6:16

of Georgia. Which

6:19

puts the LA Rams on the

6:21

clock, and I have a very difficult

6:23

decision making. And the

6:25

difficult decision is centered around what

6:30

defensive line avenue I want to

6:32

take. There's a

6:34

splash impact, undersized

6:39

penetration interior player. And

6:42

the Rams obviously have a massive

6:44

void there with the retirement of Aaron

6:46

Donald. But I

6:48

think there's a better player on the

6:50

edge. And I don't think the Rams

6:53

have so much established talent on the edge that

6:56

that shouldn't also be on the table for them

6:58

as well. So

7:00

I'm sitting here and I'm between

7:04

Johnny Newton from Illinois, the defensive

7:06

tackle, and Jared verse,

7:08

the edge rusher from Florida State. I

7:14

think this interior defensive line class is maybe a

7:16

little deeper than first

7:19

glance. I know you

7:21

and I have kind of gotten into that

7:23

class respectively for our own individual shows for

7:25

scouting purposes. I

7:28

feel a little bit better if I'm the Rams

7:30

about coming back a little later and getting some

7:32

quality players there, which makes the absolute value of

7:34

Jared verse here at 19 too difficult for me

7:37

to pass up. So I'm gonna

7:39

drop Jared verse to help my pass

7:41

rush for the LA Rams

7:43

to join the likes of

7:45

Aaron Young and

7:47

Michael Hoyt who's been a fun kind

7:49

of developmental type player for

7:52

them. Jared

7:55

verse. Depict, I

7:58

am up next with the Pittsburgh.

8:00

for the Pittsburgh Steelers who are picking

8:02

back. What you're gonna do here? Yeah,

8:04

I'm picking 20th man. There's some

8:06

intriguing stuff to do here. Obviously

8:08

a big need for Pittsburgh at center. Jackson

8:11

power Johnson would be a dream. He's

8:14

not available. And that puts

8:16

me right back to thinking about corner as

8:18

those options start to dwindle down. I

8:22

think we need something here opposite of

8:24

Joey Porter. I know that Dante Jackson's

8:26

in the mix. I think he can

8:28

maybe fill the slot role. I think he's potentially

8:30

a band-aid. He's had a lot of injury concerns.

8:33

I think we gotta get our guy

8:35

here to build this secondary up.

8:37

I thought that was kind of like their biggest issue last year was just

8:40

didn't have enough athleticism back there with Pat Pete

8:43

and Levi Wallace. And

8:45

they had some troubles. I think we gotta get a piece for

8:47

this corner room. And it's

8:49

just a matter of if it's Nate Wiggins or

8:51

Kool-Aid McKinstry. They

8:54

like big time athletes from big time programs,

8:56

right? That's kind of Pittsburgh's mantra. That's what

8:59

they've done. We'll

9:03

go with Kool-Aid

9:05

McKinstry, the corner out of Alabama.

9:10

I think the size, right? 199 pounds versus

9:12

Nate Wiggins at like 172 pounds. Probably

9:15

matters here, 32 inch arms on

9:17

Kool-Aid McKinstry. Not that Nate Wiggins is deficient of

9:19

length, but I think the mass

9:21

element here combined with the athleticism that you get

9:23

from Kool-Aid makes him the pick for me here

9:25

at pick 20. Bro, does

9:29

anybody wanna trade up? You

9:38

have any odd evens teams that would wanna come

9:40

up to 21? I'm not willing to

9:42

go down too far, but what

9:45

a board fall for Miami where

9:47

you have Olufeshanu,

9:50

Jacy Latham, Talise

9:52

Fuaga, Johnny Newton, Lea

9:56

Toulottou, Graham Barton, on

10:01

the board. I think the same is true for the

10:03

other teams behind them where they're like well we like

10:05

all those players too. Right so is there anybody who

10:08

has a run somewhere

10:10

that feels like they're running out of

10:12

like is this and anybody want

10:14

Nate Wiggins or Johnny Newton? I

10:17

would think the Eagles would want Nate Wiggins but

10:19

I don't think Dolphins are in jeopardy of picking

10:21

him so they can just pick him at 22.

10:23

So that's the to me that's

10:25

the dwindling talent pool is corner and

10:28

defensive tackle. For

10:31

top tier defensive tackles I still think there's

10:33

better there's a good tier two and tier

10:35

three options at that spot. I mean Arizona's

10:37

got assets but I

10:39

don't think that they have to do

10:41

it either I think they can chill out and

10:43

probably something would come to them. But

10:46

that's your team you're controlling so you can well

10:48

we know yeah you have 23 and 27 it

10:50

wouldn't need to trade out. Arizona

10:52

came from where? What do

10:57

you mean that where do they come from? They have they own picks

10:59

23 and 27 right now because

11:01

the Vikings trade. So

11:03

was that technically a you pick or a me pick? You

11:07

know what I mean? They went from a what's 11 to 23 to

11:09

27 it's all odd

11:11

guys well every bit of it's odd. Okay okay

11:15

I'll look at that that's a shame. I'll tell you

11:17

what Kyle everybody wants to break. Yeah we're going to

11:19

break everyone can wait for the Dolphins pick that are

11:21

coming up here in this moment. This is the only

11:23

option. So be sure to stick with us push the

12:26

Buster did absolutely nothing for me. I

12:29

know what I do for you. I know

12:31

what I do. I'm going to pick an

12:33

offensive lineman. It's just a question of which tackle.

12:37

The idea... You know which one you like the best? I

12:40

do, yeah. I'm just trying to think predictably

12:42

what they would fall into. I'm going to

12:44

pick Taliesin Fuaga from Oregon State. Good pick.

12:47

Probably play him at guard early. Teron

12:51

Armstead restructured his contract, might

12:53

be in his final run with the team.

12:55

They'd probably move on from him, even if

12:57

he didn't retire as a post-student first in

12:59

2025. You have a succession plan

13:01

at offensive tackle. In the meantime, he could play

13:03

guard for you and

13:05

give you some really nasty

13:08

run game ability for an offensive

13:10

line that's entire ideology is explosiveness

13:12

off the ball. Taliesin Fuaga. Heck

13:15

of a pick. I don't think there was a wrong

13:17

decision with what you had

13:20

available to you. Put him on

13:22

the branded album. Crazy board fall. I

13:24

think it's going to be like that for Miami. We've had

13:26

conversations off air that you're in such a great spot with

13:28

21, man. You're going to get a player that you're going

13:31

to like. You have the opportunity to get a player that

13:33

you like. Right. Right. Right. Philadelphia

13:35

Eagles have picked 22. We kind of already spoiled this.

13:37

They have a massive need at corner. And

13:40

guess who's there? Nate Wiggins. The corner out of

13:42

Clemson gives them length, speed.

13:44

I think he's unbelievably competitive. I

13:46

like the ball skills. They

13:48

need youth and dynamic upside

13:50

at corner. Nate Wiggins

13:52

is the last one available in the first round. We're turning in

13:54

the card. Which

13:57

brings us to the Arizona.

14:00

Cardinals back on the

14:02

clock. I don't make the mistake I did in

14:04

our last mock I forgot they had picked the

14:06

receiver earlier Brian Thomas said not that they could

14:08

have another one They

14:10

need help there, but they picked Brian

14:12

Thomas at 11. Yep

14:14

courtesy of Joe Marino

14:17

after trading down and

14:20

now They

14:23

are looking at And They're

14:27

another team that spent some money so it's

14:29

kind of changed the focus a little bit,

14:31

but but not too dramatically I Think

14:35

at this spot you probably have to take

14:37

the best Allant

14:40

available I Think

14:43

probably from a just

14:45

raw tape of perspective That's

14:48

lay to latu Edge

14:51

rush help that they're certainly not Definitive

14:54

there with what they have Ojala re is a

14:56

second round pick last year a promising

14:58

player Moves

15:00

even Collins to the edge see how that works

15:03

out for him. They've invested in the in the

15:05

defensive interior I'll pick latu for Arizona

15:07

here at 23 You

15:10

know, it's well, I think it's a phenomenal pick.

15:12

It's something that just crossed my mind Is there a

15:14

world or Hassan Raddick finds his way back to Arizona?

15:16

I I Think

15:18

I've recalled from somebody

15:20

that that may be like the odds-on

15:23

favorite for where he ultimately ends up makes

15:25

a lot of sense with Gannon Well,

15:28

it'll be cool big fun redemption story because

15:30

he's become such a nice player since leaving

15:33

there I think this

15:35

is another easy selection for me here Dallas

15:37

Cowboys pick 24 the offensive line needs

15:39

help Troy fatano is available the Washington

15:42

offensive lineman. No, he's not. No,

15:44

he's not he went 14 to the Saints I

15:48

have olufushana was the pick Olafushana

15:50

was the pick 14 to the Saints and

15:53

you made that big. Yep, 100% that was the

15:55

pick Okay Yeah,

15:59

is that You pick a 21. Yes,

16:01

it would have I Mean

16:03

we could just swap the picks because I just

16:05

picked for Waga for for Dallas in that situation

16:09

Is are you sure I'm 1

16:11

million percent sure that Olu Fushano was the pick

16:13

of 14 for the sink Okay,

16:15

the Vitano would be the pick at 21

16:17

if he was on the board okay,

16:19

so the Dolphins get the tanu and

16:23

the Cowboys Every

16:26

good grace we got for how efficient this mock draft

16:28

has been is completely well Well, and here's the thing

16:30

is the Dolphins fans that Listen

16:33

and stopped after the pick now you're

16:35

gonna have to deal with the slander. You didn't pick the tunnel. He

16:37

was on the board Yeah, that's coming. That'd

16:39

be good. That'll be I dude I

16:41

kept the same mock draft simulator with

16:43

browser open from yesterday and I had

16:46

for tanu a pic pick 14 So

16:50

it's Elise Blago welcome to the Dallas Cowboys

16:53

everything that excited us about for tanu We

16:55

can apply to Fuega

16:59

We can find a spot for him whether that's guard

17:01

whether that's tackle Much like

17:03

we've done with Tyler Smith. We need offensive line

17:05

help and we found it in a big way here in Fuega

17:09

Green Bay Packers pick

17:12

25 Green

17:15

Bay is another offensive line

17:17

spot that makes a lot of sense

17:27

We got Barton we got

17:29

Mims we got Latham Doesn't

17:33

Barton feel like the most Packers Offensive

17:37

lineman of this collection Talent.

17:39

I think if you didn't want to go with

17:41

the true tackle then yes and

17:45

they've Kind

17:48

of gone after some positional flexible

17:50

players Oh Zach

17:55

Tom's a position flex guy.

17:57

I'll den Jenkins has made a ton

18:00

The money being a position. Flex guy. I

18:02

think that versatility really helps them keep the

18:04

best five on the field. Royce New Minute

18:06

they get some position or flexibilities. Fourth round

18:09

pick. Or just the differences they

18:11

they're not spending first round picks in this group.

18:13

Love. The spend defensive. First.

18:16

Round picks. I just don't know. The desert, the draft

18:18

class. Do it right now. Unless

18:21

what you getting you know. He

18:23

paid wilson. At.

18:26

We've seen as hard to see that a mock

18:28

draft of like a Thing that's happening The Packers.

18:31

Yeah. What's. The intersection of athleticism on

18:33

a great hobby thing that cowboys as

18:35

well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He.

18:37

To see if if if the matter, if somebody gives

18:39

him a clean bill help with the medicals it did.

18:41

It's a no brainer. Packers fan of her shopping. Malls.

18:44

I'll. Carry. On think

18:46

and grand bargain. Ah, They.

18:50

They've made a reinvestment in the run again

18:52

with pain. Just Jacobs. I

18:54

think that's that's worth remembering here as well. Barton's

18:56

and Position of Life whether he ends up inside

18:59

or outside. Of. Presumably

19:02

be a left tackle. For. You

19:04

to start. On. The. I like that

19:06

fit for them. Or

19:08

reactor box is is pick point Six?

19:10

Yeah, but only six months? Without.

19:12

Adding is a fascinating team will number directions

19:15

they can go. A corner stands

19:17

out to me. a running mate for the Monte

19:19

David. I don't promises to Pete Wilson spot. Ah

19:22

address makes sense to me into your office

19:25

of Wine were sewer Opana is scheduled starter.

19:28

For them. Are

19:30

I know what I would do? You.

19:36

Do. I. Always love doing that You do

19:38

you do it it from feel a lesser pressure

19:40

on it. Yeah. It's.

19:42

A little off the beaten path. Well.

19:45

I know is a couple eggs. Max Melton This

19:47

corner from Rutgers has been getting a lotta love.

19:49

I. Feel like he kind of fits their prototype a date

19:51

I mean dems I am a calm embrace hall and

19:53

that that that would stop you are just wondering how

19:55

they view those players. Predictably. Is

19:58

is the Pete Wilson spot. Whatever.

20:01

You like out. What's. That up you will not

20:03

be for me. I.

20:08

Needn't your office of wine? Zach Fraser's their

20:11

Marius Memes is the tackles. Easy late him

20:13

to tackle. They.

20:17

Have Eight. I mean Age Rush Shop

20:19

Robinson Dareus Robinson are both available to

20:21

them. Will. Not be. For me. And

20:24

I'm genuinely curious. what you think you we would. you

20:27

do it off the beaten path? Wow it. but it's

20:29

a very much fits their their profile for what they

20:31

go after. this does it. Didn't.

20:35

Tell. Us. I

20:37

will draft Tj Taylor. Corner.

20:42

The Gerber. It

20:44

for any other reason besides his name or

20:46

he's very much that style a corner that

20:48

that like i'll go on or that they'd

20:50

they'd love physical long. When.

20:54

He fell off the beaten path. Kyle

20:56

Credit Star A hampered a Tampa Goodstein

20:58

ninety percent because the name. Ten percent

21:01

because of how many how many

21:03

Tampa Bay fans were drafted that are

21:05

would buy that. Darzi. Think. About

21:07

the murkier? A matter of the words. like

21:09

Twenty four. right? On a who

21:11

has twenty four for the bucks would just like. The

21:14

year he gets drafted and his last name is the name

21:16

of the city. It's.

21:19

A perfect situation We ah, we have to do. We

21:21

had to manifest that. Up. The

21:24

carnival more we got more skilled in. Or

21:27

it's. Like

21:35

there's like a players left them aboard. Yeah.

21:38

I I I wanna pick Johnny

21:40

Newton. But. I question. I

21:42

mean that they spend big on a bunch of in

21:44

fewer guys would. Buy. All Nichols and Just

21:46

and Jones. They brought those guys in. I.

21:48

Think this would be an awesome Pete Wilson

21:51

spot with do with their linebacker situation. But.

21:53

You spend a first round pick on a

21:55

linebacker with with what your roster situation is.

21:58

i'd love jc later Potentially

22:00

play inside a guard early in

22:03

his career replace Elijah Wilkinson Anything

22:06

spend for Jonah Williams, I guess that probably

22:08

shouldn't stop me Oh,

22:14

what the hey I'm gonna do JC Latham here The

22:19

Ravens at 30 are in shambles. That's who they

22:21

want. Yeah, that's too bad Drafted

22:26

Mary Smiths. We'll talk you later Yeah,

22:29

we will potentially do that we'll find out in

22:31

just a second We're gonna get to the bills

24:06

over the moon with that. The bills actually

24:08

got him. Chop Robinson out

24:10

of Penn State. Johnny Newton

24:12

out of Illinois. I'd be over the moon

24:14

with either of these picks. You can

24:16

miss me with these receivers that are available at this point.

24:19

Come on. Water receiver bust. Yeah. We're busting.

24:21

We're going to bust. Doomsday scenario if you

24:23

don't draft a water receiver. Yeah. Like, oh,

24:25

we got to take Lad McConkie here. Well,

24:27

how about we just take Roman Wilson at

24:30

60? You know, like. I

24:32

really like Roman Wilson. Well, you know what I

24:35

mean? Like, continue liking Roman Wilson. Let's

24:37

get some impact from this defensive line. Here's

24:40

what it's going to come down to. I think

24:42

the need is bigger on the edge. The better

24:44

prospect is the interior player. That's Johnny Newton, defensive

24:46

tackle out of Illinois. We're going

24:48

to have some fun with that. Him and that Oliver are on

24:50

long and late downs playing next to each other. Long

24:52

and lean. I like

24:54

that. Or you never heard that. I'm

24:58

always amazed when I drop something like that. And then

25:00

you're. Long and late. Long

25:03

and late downs, baby. Those are pass rush downs. I

25:06

end up saying like third and mid. No,

25:09

long and late. Long and late. Long and late. There

25:11

it is. Well, locked on Dolphins

25:13

listeners. Welcome to this new phrase that you're going

25:15

to hear all the time. You'll

25:18

play next at Oliver. We can. I mean, the Bills,

25:20

they play 40 defensive tackles every game. Right now, they

25:23

only have three on the roster. And

25:25

two of those are Daquan Jones and Austin Johnson.

25:27

They need some some more juice there. And

25:29

Johnny Newton can certainly provide that he's a stud.

25:34

Which brings us to the Detroit Lions on

25:36

the clock. And

25:39

I don't. This

25:42

is not easy here. Because

25:44

Detroit has really done well to address.

25:47

A lot of their perceived needs. They

25:50

got a little bit of a bombshell place on them with

25:52

the Cam Sutton thing, though. So they're fine. I

25:54

mean, they traded for Carlton Davis and they brought in Amique

25:56

Robertson. And they have Brian Branch in

25:58

the slot. How much do you

26:01

like Carlton Davis though lately? I mean

26:03

they traded for him. I know I get it They

26:07

still have mostly behind it it's exponentially better

26:09

than what it was last year their

26:11

corner situation is exponentially better Even

26:15

with the the Sutton News

26:18

that came through the news cycle Um

26:24

Receiver Yeah,

26:26

is that good value though? Is

26:29

it really good value? It's not

26:32

and that's what I have a hard time with and then I think

26:34

About Detroit couple of

26:36

30 year old guards, man Right

26:41

What's that Frater and do Zack

26:43

Frater You need a little glass man a guy got

26:46

himself off the field with a broken leg to avoid

26:48

a penalty Great Fraser would be

26:50

a bona fide home run stylistic fit

26:52

for them So

26:57

to marry its mims at tackle if you're looking

26:59

for a succession plan for Taylor Decker Man

27:03

Detroit's in a spot where we can have those

27:05

conversations. Yes Brad

27:07

Holmes is rockstar And

27:10

chop Robinson to me is the best player I know

27:12

that you're not as into chop as I am but

27:14

like he's redundant on this defense right with they already

27:16

kind of have Mm-hmm Tyler

27:20

Guyton Peyton Wilson ad Mitchell I

27:23

think at least from an athletic

27:25

profile standpoint would make some

27:27

sense for them I Think

27:31

I think it's got to be receiver or corner I'm

27:35

gonna go ad Mitchell. I don't

27:37

love it because I feel like I'm not getting

27:39

the best value player But

27:44

if I'm Detroit I would really love to get a player

27:46

that's gonna be a contributor for me this year with this

27:48

pick So I'll go ad Mitchell

27:52

Okay, I've got the Ravens at pick 30 JC

27:56

JC Latham wasn't gonna get any further you think

27:58

it's just gonna be a Marius Mims and move on

28:00

with their lives. You tell me. I

28:03

probably is. Chop is

28:05

at least interesting for me here. What

28:13

else do we identify? Let me go back to my

28:15

notes on Baltimore. Baltimore,

28:18

Baltimore. Into your offensive

28:21

line, edge. So

28:27

what's our if we if we draft

28:29

Mims, we kind of have to like. Ronnie

28:32

Stanley and all the injury concerns that are

28:34

always there. Patrick McCarrie, your pencil then right

28:37

tackle. Yeah, but certainly they traded away Morgan

28:39

Moses with the intent of McCarrie being a

28:41

starter for them. And they also have. Why

28:45

am I blanking on his name? Big fell in the pipe. For Lele,

28:47

for Lele, Daniel Fala Fala Lele. Does

28:52

this push me to the edge rusher? Do I go chop

28:54

here? You

28:57

really feel like they need to help there too. I'm

28:59

going chop. Chop Robinson, all

29:01

the burst in Ben. They're going to have Oda Fae,

29:04

Owe and Chop Robinson. Everybody's

29:06

favorite latest Penn State pass rushers.

29:09

On this. On

29:12

this defensive line, I mean, clowning was a big

29:15

time player for them last year. And

29:17

my notes are productive pass rusher too. Yeah, that was

29:19

that was. Clowning and Van Noy were

29:21

one in four on that team last year in

29:23

pressures. And they're counting on a lot from

29:25

a job. And we haven't seen anything from him yet. I'm going

29:28

chop. No

29:30

such thing as too many good pass rushers. So

29:39

San Francisco. They

29:45

could draft Mims. Yeah,

29:52

they could draft. Can

29:55

I give you take? Can I give you take? That's

29:58

literally what this podcast is for. You

30:00

asked me who the best five available

30:02

players were regardless

30:04

of positional value right now You know who would be

30:07

on my list who's that Mike

30:09

Sandra still? For

30:11

the Michigan the nickel from Michigan.

30:14

He's a former wide receiver, too He's

30:18

an absolute dog are you gonna pick up right

30:20

now or no, I'm not thinking about him He's

30:23

his name's here as I'm scrolling through best available talent

30:25

and I wanted to give him a shout out here.

30:27

He's an absolute dog I

30:34

Am gonna pick Zack Frazier here Pack

30:37

of a pic stylistic

30:39

fit for this San

30:42

Francisco offense They've kind

30:44

of gotten by with offensive line

30:46

talent I think it's time to

30:48

reinvest like significant assets into that

30:50

group and I

30:52

think the interior Having a cornerstone

30:54

player here like Jake Brendal is not stopping me

30:57

from from adding a first-round pick here and Frazier

30:59

could play guard if you needed him to as well There's

31:02

I don't think there's any way you put a combination of

31:04

best five available talent with Frazier on the list for San

31:06

Francisco And he wouldn't start for you somewhere. I Like

31:10

to pick I thought I thought their get

31:12

by offensive line cost them the Super Bowl

31:14

so Can

31:17

city Chiefs to pick 32 this is a

31:19

great scenario for them I mean, I'm looking

31:21

at I have one two three I have

31:23

five options available for them and they're all

31:25

make sense Darius Robinson the defensive

31:27

lineman from Missouri like they haven't brought

31:29

back Mike Dana yet. That's pretty much

31:31

a very simple reset there At

31:35

offensive tackle. Amarias Mims and Tyler Guyton, you

31:37

know, like they like that Oklahoma pipeline with

31:39

Creed Humphrey and one year more Left

31:42

tackle right they have a need there in my opinion

31:44

and then even the wide receiver options

31:46

of McConkie Xavier worthy Make

31:49

a lot of sense And

31:52

I mean max melt in that corner if they

31:54

wanted to to do that they could consider it

31:59

What I mean is Andy Reid is gonna prioritize

32:01

the trenches, right? He's gonna get the offensive

32:04

He would want the left tackle Especially

32:08

because they have some of those other contracts on their

32:10

offensive line that are oh Contracts

32:12

coming out you're a thinker Kyle crabs You're a thing because

32:14

even if one you more she thought of him as a

32:16

long-term starter Like maybe he's your successor for like to one

32:18

Taylor when you can get out of that deal Which I'm

32:20

sure they're gonna be right do well, and then

32:22

they they are they gonna pay Tracemith Versus

32:25

who they like you didn't pay you need are you

32:27

gonna pay Tracemith? Is

32:31

he gonna be Mims or Guyton? I think that's what this comes

32:33

down to I Know who it should

32:35

be you're gonna say Mims. I think

32:37

he's a better player Marius

32:40

Mims welcome to being Patrick

32:42

Mahomes blindside protector lock

32:45

it in lots of

32:47

tackles bottom go late though

32:51

Yeah, I thought offensive line and an edge

32:53

right like our edge run happened like 19

32:56

We had like Turner goes 9 then the next

32:58

one goes at 19 that was kind of interesting Some

33:02

corners late as well It's

33:06

good class it's a good draft. There's a

33:08

good draft class. I would say

33:11

this is probably a better draft class than at

33:14

least the top Be

33:17

fair to say the last two years Yeah,

33:20

one through 32 opportunities is as good as

33:22

I felt in a long time Yeah

33:24

past couple seasons at least yeah now I don't know

33:27

that I from what I understand about this draft is

33:29

like fifth sixth seventh round you're into the UDF a's

33:31

Yeah, don't don't have picks there But

33:36

many top 100 pictures you can get you're gonna find some talent

33:38

yeah for sure That's gonna do it for
