Here we go, we are rolling. First hour flies Bye. It's the Herd wherever you may be, however you may be listening. It's NFL Draft week and the NBA playoffs had begun in uh in earnest.
It was a great weekend.
Clippers Nuggets was fantastic, Warriors Rockets good, especially at the end. He throwing Orlando in the next several years. Not at full strains right now. The Boston's gonna fly through them. Orlando's interesting. They can't shoot, but I like the players. Mon Carl's great, all right. Daniel Jeremiah been a scout for three NFL teams, is going to be joining us. Somebody I trust absolutely when it comes to the draft. Works at the NFL Network on their draft coverage, and we do it every Monday at this time. Where Colin was right, where Colin was wrong, and here we.
Go where Colin was right.
Well, we told you last Wednesday that talented young quarterback Nico Iamaliava was going to transfer to UCLA, and it became official yesterday. His family said it's not about the money, and he didn't have much of a market. I think he's really, really talented, but I think it was a big turn off that he bailed on a better football program. Now he is a California kid, so he's bouncing back home. But you know, clearly Tennessee's a much better consistent football program. So I'm not sure how it plays out, but we broke the story and we'll take a little credit for it.
Where Colin was raw.
Yeah, I may have just missed on the Rockets Warriors series. The Rockets offense was a mess. They shot under twenty percent from threes, and outside of Shengoon, I don't know what they are in the half court set. He's brilliant. I mean, he's got the nicest touch. But Jalen Green, according to their coaching staff, appears to be a liability.
Now.
I do think Fred van Bleet will play and shoot better, but I thought their size and athleticism and the home courted man advantage and the energy would play a part. But in every crucial possession down the stretch, I just felt better every time with the Warriors' offensive possession, and the Warriors also did a great job down the stretch offensive rebounding to secure Game one in.
Houston, where Colin was right well, I.
Predicted Aaron Rodgers would be best sir waiting until the draft is over to make a commitment, and according to last week, he's in no hurry and is not making a commitment. And I don't think it's a bad decision, by the way, asked Kirk Cousins. He got burned on it. And also the Pittsburgh Steelers, who apparently haven't checked the calendar in about a decade, have forgotten the quarterback matters. They're the only team desperate enough to be really really interested, because even Aaron Rodgers admitted that Minnesota's not waiting for him. So you know, listen, Aaron's talented, but he's very, very distracted, doesn't feel like there's a huge market for him.
And I think Pittsburgh's a bad fit. But we saw it.
Coming where Colin was raw. It's not that the Timberwolves beat the Lakers. They pushed him around the floor for two and a half hours. And I think the Lakers will bring in more urgency, but Luca had one assists often Reeves got pushed around. I think Lebron has to be more engaged. But the te Wolves baby were humming from the outside, and it's not like they were just shooting well. They were getting great looks. Forty two open threes. Is that a playoff record?
I don't know.
We looked that up, but that surprised me. It just surprised me the lack of urgency and physicality.
By the Lakers where Colin was right.
I've been saying this, if you start paying Brock pretty fifty large, that windows closing, baby, And how about Pooka Nakua apparently believes the same thing.
Rock perty is he gonna get a five, I don't think so. Do you think he's gonna go with a four? It's gonna start with a four? Yeah, high four?
Um No, I think mid for forty five.
I think so.
I mean I think if he does that, that'd be smart for him and them. Yeah, I mean, I think he's he seems like a smart guy. I think he like they're still they have a chance to still be in their window. And I think if if he goes for a five, the window closes, Well, did.
We send him our transcripts? I love it where Colin was wrong.
Russell Westbrook can drive me crazy. But I thought he and Jokic won Game one, a very tight game, and you got the full Russell Westbrook experience. I mean you got his energy, you got his rebounding, you got his toughness, you got his defense. I thought he you know, I mean, he's not a flawless player. This three were showing was huge, But you got to be fair in this business.
I don't always love him as a player.
I thought he was so valuable and you can say whatever you want with Westbrook, but it's six'. Four that dude is a great rebounder and he has no problem battling six to nine guys in the. Paint he loves. It good for him Where colin was. Raw i'm not a huge fan Of Jackson. DART i think when you put pressure on him and becomes a better version Of Zach. WILSON i just he even went to the same high. School but you, know PEOPLE i like in THE nfl WHO i, trust rams like. Him reportedly Day ball likes. Him So i've talked to somebody over the weekend that likes him a, lot an executive in THE nfl WHO i have respect.
For so, YEAH i watched him a lot in.
COLLEGE i Watch Ole miss AND sec football And Lane kevin And Jackson dart a. LOT i never looked at it and, thought, well it was a first round. Talent NOW i think he's better Than Will. LEVIS i think he's better Than Zach. Wilson he's obviously a talented. Guy there's a you know whatever it, is and you know he can make big. Throws but he beat up on a lot of bad teams in. College was one and three AGAINST bam And, georgia and that one win he had thirteen completed. Passes but the, league we'll, see we'll see On, thursday but the league apparently disagrees with.
Me Colin, Wright colin wrong on A.
Monday be sure to catch live editions Of The herd weekdays and Noone easter non A.
Empacific so you know HOW i think About Jason. tATu i think he's very, good top seven eight.
Player in THE.
NBA i don't think he's the face of the. League but we are so conditioned because THE nba is a star driven. League we are so conditioned the fans the media that if a team's, good it's got to be their. Star but the star of The celtics is THE Gm Brad, stevens and before, him it Was Danny. Inge so The celtics won a playoff game last. Night they're now sixteen and three Without Jason, tatum and they score, more they have a higher net, rating they shoot better Without Jason. Tatum that is not a. Criticism THE mvp of The celtics is their last two general. Managers it is a roster so deep that virtually everybody's. Replaceable When washington And Joe gibbs were Winning Super, bowls three of them with three different, quarterbacks it won't about the. Quarterback it just usually is for everybody else that Wins Super. Bowls, okay The celtics are not just a really good basketball.
Team they're a.
Great, company, culture, product depth of employee. Talent that's what they. Are so we're all conditioned to, say, oh it's about the. STAR i, Mean Peyton pritchard is a Classic. Celtic they drafted him like five years ago with a twenty six. Pick they develop, them bring him along. Slowly now they got him into a new. Contract he's Six man of The. Year so this team Is this team statistically over the long, run would not be better than Without Jason, tatum but in short brief stints Without Jason, tatum the stats tell you they're just as, good if not, better and more. Efficient the ball moves a little better in all basketball when the superstars off the.
Floor, now in the.
Case of A, jokic The nuggets can't score consistently Without. Jokic in the case of The, bulls Without, jordan though he, left they still won fifty five games and could win a playoff. Series so even When Michael jordan left The bulls for a, Year, okay and that's because The bulls had the, coach great excellent depth they were better with. Him The celtics long term would be better With Jason. Tatum they would need his ability to BE b plus to a minus aid. Everything but last, Night orlando's a good team and The celtics are so good at drafting and. DEVELOPING i, mean porzingis they pretty much stole. Them Derek, white they pretty much stole. Them and this is what they. Do so it's not a. Criticism it's the reality that When washington was Winning Super bowls With Joe, gibbs it was the coach and the.
Culture Joe. MAZZOULA i, mean think about.
This umayadok left and we were, like, Oh Joe, mizzoula he not ready to.
COACH a year later you're, like he's.
Fine is he a great? Coach good enough when you have this kind of, depth this kind of. Roster so not every, team despite the fact that we're all conditioned to really. BELIEVE i don't follow international soccer closely, enough but we're conditioned in.
That sport to.
Believe, OH i, mean if it was just about the great PLAYER messi would have Six World cups. Right the bottom line is The celtics are built. Different their stars have been the gms who have won every, trade who crush in, development who rock and free agency and regularly steel really good.
Players one more.
Heard The herd streams twenty four hours a, day seven days a week within The iHeartRadio. App Search herd to listen live or on demand whenever you.

Just watch it on. YouTube just SEARCH. Fsr believe we Are Fox Sports.
Radio, oh it's The friday After round ONE nfl.
DRAFT a main primary.
Talk a topic Today round one of THE nfl, drafts.
All sorts of.
Surprises Jmacair Urban meyer stopped by this, Dollar Michael urban and Studio Shador sanders did not get.
Drafted it is. Booth you, know it's so much to talk about this. Draft you, KNOW i.
Just watched because certain things, happen And i'm texting with friends you know in the league all night and texting with people all. Night wished everybody. Well they all got back and it's not a final. Time like all my buddies who are working in this. League in the executive tweeked all, excited they're all fired.
Up bothen optimism maybe. Yeah and by.
The, WAY i tend to think the guys THAT i connect with are really smart and they all did really.
Well oh everybody did. Great everybody ate the first.
Rout but BUT i want to start with. This you, know it's hard for me to have sympathy for some of these losing. Franchises there's a reason the same team's draft at the top every year and then always feel like The.
Jets are up, there The jaguars are up. There so think About.
Jacksonville AND i never Talked, jacksonville so this will be. Brief they trade up in the. Draft they have a first time head, coach a first TIME, gm a first time offensive, coordinator a first time defensive.
Coordinator they've had one little brief three day.
Camp you don't even know your personnel good enough yet to make a massive. Trade not to Mention Travis hunter is unbelievably, talented but you got to deal with that offense defensive pivot.
Thing Like.
Jacksonville you don't know your personnel well enough yet to make a massive. Trade you got first TIME gm coach. Coordinators how about you go through a camp or two huge swing over compensate And Cleveland, cleveland which needs a future.
QUARTERBACK i, mean can you just say Arch.
Manning they now have two potential top ten picks in next year's, draft which is a significantly better draft than this.
One So cleveland's, like, yeah we'll take picks for next. Year this is a bad. DRAFT i, mean this was not a very good.
Draft SO i mean to, Me cleveland and In, cleveland by the, way also now has two of the four first picks in round. Two So cleveland ends up getting a first round, pick and then they get potentially Today Travian henterson running Back Will, johnson and they already Got Mason, graham and they'll Have jacksonville's first round. Pick cleveland set themselves up, beautifully and, LISTEN i Like Andrew.
BERRY i.
Have i've said. This the ownership drives me. NUTS i love the coach AND i love THE. Gm i'm A stefanski fan through and, through AND i Like Andrew. BERRY i love those. Guys they've had to overcome some nonsense, upstairs BUT i love those. Guys cleveland ace the. Test they get a first round pick in a better. Draft they Got Mason, graham they're gonna end up getting potentially two. More there's some really nice players in the top seven picks in this. Draft and, oh by the, way they're not the only. Ones, Atlanta the hell are you? Doing atlanta gave The rams again a first round pick as they looked to Draft Matt stafford's. Replacement The rams that told me six months ago they weren't going to draft the quarterback in the first. Round this was not the quarterback first round. Draft so The rams going a second round pick a first round pick next year in the, draft they'll have to draft a quarterback a much better quarterback. Draft And, atlanta who already drafted a net, rusher gave up a first round pick for another red rusher, who by the, way was off at least eight to ten teams boards because of character.
Issues what are you?
Doing you don't late in round one in a week draft give up a first round pick for a much better, draft for a position you drafted, earlier on a player that was off many teams.
Boards.
Lord, conversely, again savior empathy for the people who deserve, it you, KNOW i mean like burn victims and, ORPHANS i mean. Savior M i don't feel sorry for some of these teams who did, well shocking The Harbaugh's Jim harbaugh Gets Najee harris and now he's got hamped in the running. Back Jim harbaugh's got his Classic Stanford. Michigan he's got his. Backfield he's ready to. Go two power runners With Joe Alton. Slater now they're gonna go get a tight ends and wide. Receivers by the, way who also did, Well, Baltimore John, harbaugh The. Ravens once, again they go to THE. Sec they get the best safety in the. Draft he's A georgia. Guy all Those georgia first round guys. Work so it's like as much of stuff changes to, much it stays the. Same i'll Give cleveland a ton of, credit BUT i like their people. Anyway, AGAIN i Think barry And stefanski are really smart.
GUYS i know people that know. HIM i don't know.
HIM i know people that know, him people really respect. Him BUT i, mean this is not a good, draft and everybody knows. It this is not a great. Draft you're you're drafting late Like. Atlanta you're giving up a first round pick and a better. Draft now The rams will not have a great first round. Pick next year because they're, good But atlanta could be average so they could get a Top they just got into the top ten potentially of next year's draft in a much better. Draft in a draft they need a Quarterback, cleveland same.
Thing it's just crazy to. Me and you, know Yesterday Diana russini came on the show and it was. Funny remember when she came on the.
Show Diana russini said that she was Told jacksonville was going to do something. Exciting how about just doing something. Smart if you got first time COACH gm, coordinators what are you doing taking massive swings on a player that it's gonna be kind of hard to massage because he should be a receiver but he wants to be a corner and that that's gonna.
Be a little.
Tricky. Ech, okay let's get to the Shene Y sanders. Thing so you, know tall you.
Something it's never a bad message to tell your kids be. Humble humility works in the, summer it works in the. Fall humility works in the. Spring humility works in the. Winter don't gash your kids up too.
Much it didn't.
Really bother me when they Retired Shador sanders. Number but he has a five hundred quarterback who couldn't get drafted in the first.
Round it's a little.
Much everything is, something nothing is. Everything Shadoor sanders didn't get. Drafted there's multiple, Reports, EH o, cocky what? Ebbs But i'm watching his draft room and the word legendary is all over the draft. Room i'm, like can we just can we just pull the temperature down a? Little it's not the end of the. World if he Had Caleb williams, talent nobody WOULD i guess care about.
It.
Did the whole thing is, Like, bro you Wore New York giant. Cleats remember when he wore The New York giant? Clets, like can we just humility is? NOT i know in, society everybody loves the TikTok watch. Thing you know who doesn't apparently love? IT nfl, executives you're drafting. Employees that's all these teams are. Doing they're drafting. Employees did you notice the two players in the first round that moved up about ten? Spots what a shock to a plus plus plus character. Guys the receiver From Ohio. State we talked about this all. WEEK a plus plus plus, character, humble, hardworking everybody THAT i have as a, source loved that, kid not just the, player they loved that.
Kid.
Shocking he went from middle of the second round to middle of the first over the last month and a.
Half what a. Shock great, player but checks all the. Boxes you. Know the other kid that moved up about half around.
Was Tyler, booker the guard The Dallas cowboys got team. Captain unbelievable. Passion how do you not love that? KID i, mean how do you not want that kid on your? Team i'm never going to criticize any player who cares that much about being.
DRAFTED i want to buy that guy's.
JERSEY i wish he wasn't a, guard it would BE i, mean but who are the guys that moved up in the draft team? CAPTAINS i? Mean there Was Joel klass talking about a story yesterday About. Buka he could have gone to THE nfl last. Year he would have been a fourth round. Pick but he could have, gone but he wanted to. Stay he wanted to be part of the Great ohio state receiver. Lineage he wanted to help the new kid From, Alabama Jeremiah, smith the great receiver they have, like work his way into The buckeyes like that stuff. Matters you are drafting. Employees can we just go back in society where hard work matters and humility's not. UNCOOL i know you're gonna race to, TikTok and you got all your stuff on. TikTok it's not the end of the. WORLD i don't really. Care if you have great, Talent i'm drafting. You but, like something has happened In, america where can we just have it's humility the worst. Thing you gotta put legendary. Everywhere how about you play a game? One just give me one game and then you can put legendary.
All over your.
HOUSE i don't.
Care it's just and AND i, Listen i'm not rooting against the. KID i Like Sanor. SANDERS i think he's. GOOD i like him more Than Jackson. DART i may be in the. Minority i'll get to the giants. PICK i MEAN i like. HIM i would have drafted HIM i needed a. QUARTERBACK i think he's bigger than people. THINK i think he's got good. MECHANICS i think he's super, accurate you, KNOW i, MEAN i think he's pretty.
GOOD i think accuracy really.
Matters but AS i watched the, thing look who got drafted higher than you, thought and look at some of the guys who, fall AND i do think there is something to be. Said this nil thing is going to be tricky because guys come in now and they can throw their own parties and buy their own. Stuff and that's. FINE i don't resent any of that. Stuff i'm not anti. Anybody but, listen The Pittsburgh steelers are desperate for a quarterback and they, moved they said not. INTERESTED i, mean And Mike tomlins about as player friendly as anybody in the. League so it's just let me just say this. Again everything with a quarterback is. Something nothing's. Everything but don't listen to the young media that's always pro player everything with quarterbacks on all the TEXTS i get for my entire. Career everything with, quarterbacks you are judged. Differently it's all. Something may not be, everything it's. Something and SO i Think shotter is going to go very early. Today Jackson Dart i'll get to that in a, second but it's wildly. Fun my lead today, though was these teams that draft at the top every. YEAR i cannot Believe jacksonville took that swing with all first time people in the.
BUILDING i. DON'T i, MEAN i had a.
SOUP i had A nfl executor that sent me a laugh emoji after that pick and texted me and said he is not on at least five BOARDS i know. Of and, Again James pierce could have not been a good. Player he's a very good. Player but you give it up a first round pick and a better.
Draft what are we doing?
HERE i actually like What atlanta did get into pass, rushers shopping in THE sec where they have the best pass. Rushers But, kyle let me make a quick point about This Travis hunter. Trade so you know how sometimes we as guys like to signal to women, Like, Hey i've got A porsche Or i've got a, big big. Truck i'm signaling to you what kind of GUY i? AM i Think jacksonville was signaling to everybody. Else, hey we're gonna be. Cool we're gonna go Get Travis. Hunter everybody loves this, generation so the great. Player we're not The international Jack, jaguars the team that's got to play In london every.
Year we're. Cool we're. RELEVANT i don't care that we're.
Giving up a twenty twenty six, first but we. Are we're a cool. Team now that we've Got Travis, HUNTERSON i THINK i don't love that.
Strategy, no, No i'm not hating on the.
Player Travis hunters a good, Player but you are a franchise that COACH gm, coordinators you don't even know your personnel that.
Well is he gonna Be Justin jefferson Or Jamar.
CHASE i don't think.
So. WELL i think he's gonna be an EXCELLENT nfl player AND i am rooting for him AND i can't wait to watch. Him BUT i mean everybody want, To, hey we're gonna make the draft, exciting just make it. Smart the team's drafting at the. Top they need. Players they don't need fun and. Exciting they need more. PLAYERS i, mean you look At philadelphia's, Roster detroit, Sroster baltimore's, roster The rams. ROSTER i mean The, rams by the, way why do they move? Back, well they Wanted Colston. Lovelin they wanted the tight end for The.
Raiders hours last.
Year mcvayh is looking to upgrade at tight. END i wouldn't be surprised if The rams first pick today is a tight end.
Or a corner From Bowling. Green, YEAH i mean they want a tight.
End they wanted, to so they thought about, it but but they moved. Down why because they want the teams at the bottom of the draft to have very few. Needs what Does philadelphia? Need what Is Kansas, City, Buffalo baltimore. Need baltimore already has an all pro. Safety they were, like let's go get another. One so it's it's, just IT'S i Just i'm gonna save in life empathy for those that deserve it and some of you teams that keep doing dumb.
STUFF i, DON'T i. DON'T i don't feel.
BAD i Thought pittsburgh was going to be in consideration for a lead for you today drafting a defensive.
Player, no you know, What i'll Defend pittsburgh. LEA i JUST i. WILL i want to talk about what The bears.
Did, okay be sure to catch live editions of The herd weekdays and Newon easter not A empacific all, right.
My coler and haven't had him on in a, while the. PLAYMAKER i missed you to my, BROTHER i miss. YOU i was Missing, okay let's get let's start in a Positive. No SO i am a believer that football practice is hard, baseball hitting the balls from batting, cage basketball practice a good, time.
Right football practice. Stinks you need guys who love the. GAME i Watched Tyler. Booker i'm, LIKE i want that guy on my. TEAM i.
DON'T i don't watch interior lineman. Much to, me it's like starter day. One now they got their, Guards dak's coming off a second. Surgery keep those feet and knees. Clean what did you think of? It you?
Know AND i spoke all week calling AND i took my strategic approach to. THIS i knew the last three those three years we went twelve and. Five we have a thirty twenty eight twenty seven, points so about twenty eight twenty eight points a, game and last year we dropped the. TWENTY i wanted Gent r McMillan's SO i can try to put those seven eight points back on the, board strengthen one unit because we had too many places that we need to field with. PLAYERS i didn't get my. Playmakers But i'm with, you, BUDDY i got a great player BECAUSE i always.
Talk this game is like you talked, about it's not just about, skill it's also about.
Will And i'll give up a little skill IF i know this guy got the right will in the right excitement and one of those guys that no matter, what WHEN i come to, work he's gonna make me feel like. Working he has the right. Attitude you need those guys on your. Team you cannot go anywhere without. Them and the way he handled that drive choice when he yelled and bigs three hundred pounds come.
Running you know.
How hard he is to get the Fact jokers to, run and he was running for.
Free he wouldn't even get paid for that.
Run come, on, man let's stop. PLAYING i love that.
Attitude, YEAH i loved this From Bill parcell's years as ago when he Left, alice he went To miami as THE gm and he took a one win team to an, eleven and he went and stole a few of the, cowboys not their. Stars he went and got weight room, guys, right passionate, Guys and there's just value in guys that love going to. Work they can build Your, now you need, stars but you win a lot of games on passion, culture weight, room locker. Room, Okay NOW i am surprised BECAUSE i like him more Than, Jackson dart Shadeor. Sanders The steelers in his sights and they go defensive.
Linemen and the pain of that moment was we knew that for, years for, years not just this. Year it's been Since Ben roethlisberger stepped off the football. Field they've been looking and never have Given Mike tumblin his. Quarterback, HERE i thought was the perfect situation and a perfect opportunity to get that taken care, of and you went and drafted another.
Alignment that was.
Surprising BECAUSE i can't in my own mind rationalize after the organizations had Cheated Mike tumblin of a, quarterback even IF i couldn't imagine If Mike tumblin was on the table SAYING i get, HIM i got my quarterback right. Here he's right here for, us and they went by. Him so so that was the hard take right there at twenty, one which Is beyond's number to be passed for them.
To pass your, Door why do you think people?
Pass that blows my. MIND i don't care what anybody, says AND i don't. Care you can't find anybody to sit in this chair that tells you that they've seen a kid have that kind of success on the football. Field i've seen them through every play on the football, field and we were going through. This there's no way this is an arm strength. Thing there's no way this is what he doesn't run like the.
STORY i don't know what about the stories that came out this week where there's a lot of, Ego what about that?
Stuff you need.
Ego you need, egos especially for where some of these teams are and for where they've. Been some of these teams have been in a hellhole for a long long. Time what do you think you gonna get the, greatest, little, kindest nicest guys.
To come pull you out of that.
Hellhole you need people with, Egos that's What i'm talking. About it's always the organizations that haven't won anything and forever talking about guys with. Egos you need different people to come change your. Culture stop talking about that guy has an. Ego maybe the ego is big enough to get you out of this hull. Hellhole go drive. Him that's what you. Need SO i don't give substance to that kind of.
Series The cowboys team had. Ego you need.
It you're walking on the field against some of the greatest athletes in the. World if you don't believe in, you how the hell can you think anyone else will believe in.
You so you need.
That that's not, that that's, that that's, nothing and that stuff that people that don't play.
On the football. Field those are stuff that people that wear.
The suits, say people that wear the uniforms on the football.
Field they know how important ego. Is that's the stuff they're SO.
I think it'll be. FINE i would rather play them at receiver than. Corner Travis, Hunter, no BECAUSE i think it's more of an offensive. League i'd rather have twelve targets than chasing guys over the field who are.
DECOYS i want them in the. GAME i.
AM i do Think jacksonville's got a new, coach a new, coordinator NEW. Gm you got that toggle Between are you in the? Meetings tell me about the meeting thing With Travis? Hunter is it gonna be a.
PROBLEM i laugh when people say this to. Me you, know will Can travis play both? SHIVES i, said are you joking?
THAT i was. THERE i saw.
IT i saw The sanders get off of a hell of. Copter wasn't an any practice or any. MEETING A helma cooughter and shut jokers. Down you see WHAT i. Mean put him in the offensive. Meetings make sure he gets his timing with the quarterback and then tell him we'll see you in defensive. Practice he knows What cover one, is that's man. Coverage he knows What cover two, is that's two safeties back and we. Uppressing he knows What cover three, is that's done coverage with one high. Safety you know that stuff from.
Birth you, know let's pray Keep Ti lleve once told me. THIS i asked him about The. PATRIOTS i, said oh, god how Long Bill? Belichick very. Sophisticated he, says. Yeah by the end of the second, PRACTICE i knew what it was.
RIGHT i knew WHERE i had to be.
Right, right especially like, them BECAUSE i gotta stop that, guy all, RIGHT i gotta stop that. Guy that's why he's coming in this dude here is going to BE i have to stop that. Guy you're gonna put him on your best, guy even after he ran twenty plays on. Offense so You johnson was brilliant last. NIGHT i don't care what anybody.
Says swings gave up a, lot.
And you, UP i don't think they gave up a. Lot they got two first. Rounders so you're saying they gave up two first.
Rounds cleveland, now not only Did cleveland get a first round pick next, Year cleveland got the first pick this, morning right.
Right right, now and that's. Why and right there, again do you think the it ended with? Pain AND i don't want just want to start with. Pain And i'm talking about his day yesterday after he realized he didn't get. Drafted now you come, Back cleveland passes. Again then then Then i'm, like oh my, god that would throw that would throw me for such a. Loop If, cleve if you can pick up a chador in the second. Round WE i know people are saying that's BECAUSE i Love deonn AND i, do and he's my, boy and he, is but we've never seen anybody have this kind of success in, college that kind of success and and and watch this at the quarterback, position and we know how important it.
Is so, yeah she was.
The most accurate quarterback in college ever with allows him.
The hell up on the, office, LIN i, like we both like.
HIM i would pick him in THE. FIR i would have piken. HIM i would have taken a vile With. PITTSBURGH i would have they didn't need more defensive. Talent, okay, right so you talked me Into Cam. MOARD i, AGAIN i don't start the. FIRES i Just i'm a, journalist SO i had HAD i SUGGESTED i.
Didn't know if Cam ward could. Lead my, friends these were internet. RUMORS i just laid him out. There BUT i DO i made EVERYBODY i talked to you said at the end.
Of the, day great.
Leader he's A i.
Mean a, kid no star recruit that is actually totally impressive to.
Me and it's the.
Story you want going around in your locker. Room, Man this dude works his way. Up you, know most, quarterbacks you, guys they're trying to get everything in THE nfl locker.
Room you.
Like you like when you hear that a kid worked this way, up you, know and it means he's willing to put in the work That i'm willing to follow. Him and this kid is willing to put in the.
Work.
MAN i talked To chris The ball yesterday about. Him he, Said, michael the one THING i love about. Him all he cares about is, winning and he knows how the rally guys at quarterback in this league and In. Tennessee that's going that's going to, be that's going to work. Great it minds me a lot of steaming. There he, does and he is steaming there and that city had a great, union AND i think this would be a great.
Union so, yeah and we have to be honest about. This is That tennessee.
Quarterback play last year was bann and twenty one touchdowns and twenty two picks or maybe vice. Versa so HE J mack AND i both believe they will be a playoff. Team that he's the only guy in the draft that can change. Outcomes now other guys will be. Good he could change four losses to four, wins.
Right it put with the right situation and this is this is the old thing. TOO i like in it because we did the Comp Sir Patrick mahomes AND i was, Like, OKAY i love that the way the way this dude never gives up on a, play gives you, opportunities gives a receipt opportunity after the first, play, second playing, third you, know giving him more times within the, play never gives up on the, play and THAT i think that that's going to be.
Great SOMETIMES i used to get mad at.
HIM i thought he had a route on the shorter, route he would go back in and take a deeper, playoffink throw the, ball throw the, ball but he would always come out on. Top i'm telling, You, tennessee you got one of the great.
Ones so when you watch the draft and you know it's it's interesting about. Character So Booker Tyler, booker team, captain great. Character many, say, well he got drafted ten to twelve spots ahead of where we. Thought and my take is in an average, draft character matters. More And mecca At Book Ohio, state he was a mid second round. Pick when the season was, over he gets drafted. Nineteenth again a plus. Character COULD i argue that when it's not a great, draft you were in this league. Forever character becomes more and The cowboys part of the kid they drafted Was All american team.
Captain.
Unbelievable do you think that stuff matters more when the players aren't as, Great, WELL i think.
THAT i think it matters that you have that kind of understanding about how important it is that you show up and be a certain way every. Day every TIME i talk to anything or, ANYBODY i always talk about if you're a, leader you gotta first lead yourself to be able to lead anybody. Else that's why that person that that kind of infectious personality. Matters showing, up being where you're supposed to, be putting in the, work letting people see you put in the. Work that stuff matters big, time especially at this. Level so you're, right you're, right and any. Truth every year we hear people that are dropping because we talk of the same. Character you, KNOW i don't like. THEM i don't like this. Football it's the. Meritocracy it is always. Love if you can beat somebody on the football, field you got a. Position but the real, rest the rest of, life the rest of, life people are making decisions on who they like and who they don't. Like and when we get in these draft, rooms we're dealing with a lot of, people not. Football we're dealing with the rest of life, people people that are making decisions on who they like and who they don't.
Like it's not just about. Football so you're. Right character really.
Matters where do you want to See dallas go with their next? Pick so they went and got interior, Line they could use it, back they could use a tight, end or do you want to see them?
Go where would you like them to?
Go, Right my philosophy has been build one unit to be.
Dominant if we're.
Not going if we have all of these spots that we need to, Field we're not going to be able to fill them. All let's build one unit and be dominant and win this. Way and that's the offensive. Unit and to help we got With Tyler. Booker that's the right area we needed help. There that's the right. Spot let's stay on the offensive. Side, okay you see What i'm.
Saying that's that's what The bears are doing With caleb.
Right let's stay on the offensive.
Side let's try to get this to a twenty eight thirty pointem every, game and we can fill in on defense and we can put it together on.
Defense now here's the caveat to.
That we have to Get Michael parson's, signed since we are filling in on. Defense now that we Got DeMarcus ruins out in the locker, room we Need Michael parson in the locker room in training, camp not holding, out to try to get whatever guys he got on defense together as one so they can try to play good. Defense when we give him thirty, points they just got to hold people in the thirty in the. Offense give you a thirty and we can be right back in to think of.
It the hall Of famer the Playmaker Michael. Urban it's always a pleasure to see.
Him my.
Man always great to sit in this chair and just check it to my brother
