We'll get into it. 4 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:08,160 Don't piss the people off. 5 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 3: Hi, look, welcome back. In our number three of Off 6 00:00:11,279 --> 00:00:14,640 the Bench. Everyone is super fired up about Cooper Flag, 7 00:00:14,679 --> 00:00:18,120 so we will get into that next segment little NBA basketball. 8 00:00:18,199 --> 00:00:20,760 I'm sure Jordan is thrilled about the success of the 9 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,399 Los Angeles Lakers. I will certainly get everyone's thoughts on that. 10 00:00:25,399 --> 00:00:27,239 What can they do in the playoffs? And then where 11 00:00:27,239 --> 00:00:28,960 does Cooper Flag end up? 12 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 2: Guys? 13 00:00:29,359 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 3: As the uh the final picture of the team's overall 14 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,479 records is becoming a little bit more clear as we 15 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,880 wind down the regular season. I want to recap hours 16 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,479 one and two here just a little bit. In our one, 17 00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:45,240 we hit a lot of LSU football. I previewed the 18 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,759 running back position coming up for spring, and then last 19 00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:50,280 segment we hit a little bit of New Orleans Saints 20 00:00:50,359 --> 00:00:52,520 or back to LSU spring practice. Speaking of the New 21 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,119 Orleans Saints. Want to welcome in right now our normal 22 00:00:55,159 --> 00:00:58,240 guest here, Tuesday nine am, Nick Underhill of New Orleans 23 00:00:58,320 --> 00:00:58,880 Dot Football. 24 00:00:58,960 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: Nick, how are you this morning? 25 00:01:00,039 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 4: Doing good? 26 00:01:00,359 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: How you doing doing well? Nick? You're not out. 27 00:01:03,679 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 3: I appreciate you hopping on. It's look, it's Marty grawl 28 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,920 in New Orleans. What are the vibes like? 29 00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:12,719 Speaker 4: They're they're good. Ben, Just tired, you know, it's just 30 00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:15,200 real tired at the end of it. This is what 31 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,640 I feel. My age every year comes straight from the 32 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,719 combine where you're just like walking like twelve hours a 33 00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:22,840 day in circles looking for people and then come right 34 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,640 here and just keep walking and standing. But yeah, this 35 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,640 is why I feel the year every year. But it's great, man, 36 00:01:28,799 --> 00:01:30,719 it's great. Weather's been good. It looks like we're going 37 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,680 to get a nice pocket here before the rank comes 38 00:01:32,719 --> 00:01:37,120 and messes everything up. So yeah, it's been it's been fantastic. 39 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,079 Speaker 3: I want to let's jump right into a look outside 40 00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:43,159 of the NFL combine. The big story, at least for 41 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,760 LSU and New Orleans Saints fans, has been the hiring 42 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,920 of defensive line coach Bo Davis. What are your thoughts 43 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,560 on that hire? What's he going to bring to this 44 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:52,439 kellen More staff? 45 00:01:53,879 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's interesting. I mean even before they hired daily, 46 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,200 Bo Davis's name was like one night that I was here, 47 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,439 in and you know, people are telling me to look 48 00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:04,079 out for it and everything. So it's it's you know, 49 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,560 I think I think where they're at, like if you 50 00:02:05,599 --> 00:02:07,680 kind of look at the construction of their whole staff 51 00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:11,319 with with Terry Joseph and Peter Sermon and Bo Davis, 52 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,560 I mean, I think that there's like a high premium 53 00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:17,039 on player development right now for them. So I think 54 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,280 that's probably you know, kind of what they're thinking about 55 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,960 on that defense. And if you look at it overall, 56 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,960 I mean, like they're gonna need like like a lot 57 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,800 of people, Like they need a lot of players on 58 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,560 that side of the ball. They need to start thinking 59 00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:30,520 about rebuilding it. And when you're you're playing the cap 60 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,000 like they do, like it's gonna take some cost effective players. 61 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,879 You're gonna have to, you know, take some mid round 62 00:02:35,879 --> 00:02:38,080 picks and throw them into the players get them to 63 00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:39,960 even be depth. And I and I think it's just 64 00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:42,240 kind of an eye on that that that they're gonna 65 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,639 have a young defense probably for the next few years, 66 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,800 probably start so like thlowing out some of these older 67 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,479 players over the next couple of years, and they're gonna 68 00:02:49,479 --> 00:02:51,080 have to be able to develop them. And you know 69 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,039 those to the college ranks. Getting some of those guys 70 00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:55,400 that I think, you know, I think it makes a 71 00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:58,080 lot of sense. I like the construction of that defense, 72 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,879 that defensive stet what we're going to kind of have 73 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,759 to see what Staley is overall. But yeah, I mean, 74 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,240 look that that's a good hire. And you know, low 75 00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:10,080 key the rivalry between the Saints and LSU, like on 76 00:03:10,479 --> 00:03:13,840 some of these uh staffers like that, there's there's you know, 77 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,759 a little gears one quiet battle there, and you know 78 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,919 it's kind of interesting to see you keep playing out 79 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,000 speaking of. 80 00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: Want to continue with Bo Davis right here. 81 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 3: You know, anytime a mock draft has come out this offseason, 82 00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:30,319 Nick and Saints fan see the Saints like projected to pick, 83 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,639 you know, whether it's a d tackle or a defensive end, 84 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,919 they kind of freeze because the Saints have missed on 85 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,639 so many of those guys. Does the hiring of Bo 86 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:42,680 Davis maybe alleviate some of those concerns, I'd say no. 87 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,639 Speaker 4: I mean, like I think I think you still have 88 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,639 to get the right the right players, and like I 89 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,159 don't think Bo Davis is turning Isaiah Foski into a superstar. 90 00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:53,280 And like I might you know, if I'm wrong, like 91 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,400 clip that and play later, like I'll own it. But 92 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,879 I don't think that changes anything. Look, I think I 93 00:03:57,919 --> 00:03:59,479 think the big reason they've missed on some of those 94 00:03:59,479 --> 00:04:03,240 guys is because they've been drafting late. You know, in eighteen, 95 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,039 you know, you're you're defensive on the way from from 96 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,000 probably being a super Bowl team, and there's no way 97 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,199 to really get one. Like people don't let their their 98 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,919 d ns at the open market and sign unless you 99 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,519 know you're you're giving up on Trey Hendrickson too soon. 100 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,680 But like you know, top to your surefire things, like 101 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,639 they don't show up at that so you're kind of 102 00:04:21,639 --> 00:04:23,920 taking a gamble there. Peyton Turner, you know, I think 103 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,199 you're you're you're drafting him late, hoping that the measurables 104 00:04:27,759 --> 00:04:31,199 outweigh any concerns you have with him. Foski's the second rounder, 105 00:04:32,079 --> 00:04:34,439 you know, Brian Berzi is the guy that that dropped too. 106 00:04:34,519 --> 00:04:36,680 I think it is solid that hasn't quite done, you know, 107 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,360 all the way where you want them to be. But 108 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,680 I think I think the problem with with a lot 109 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,120 of those guys is that is that you're you're gambling overall, 110 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,000 and you're picking the wrong guys, and you know, I 111 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,800 don't think I don't think coaching or anything's really gonna 112 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,600 gonna save you know, Marcus Stavenport. I think the things 113 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,959 that that kind of play Marcus Stavenport or health and 114 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,439 just kind of the you know, the love of the game. 115 00:04:56,759 --> 00:04:59,040 And I'm not sure that that you're interjecting that somewhere else, 116 00:04:59,079 --> 00:05:02,360 but I mean that's probably the biggest issue on the 117 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,600 team though, Like if you look at the downturn and 118 00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:07,560 the deterioration, like it really is in those trenches, and 119 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,600 you know, the Henderson add not in there, letting him go, 120 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,319 like all those decisions on that d line, I think 121 00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:15,800 or the biggest issue with the team. And if you know, 122 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,360 two of the five things that went wrong hit like 123 00:05:18,399 --> 00:05:21,360 I think they're they're in a slightly different place right now. 124 00:05:21,439 --> 00:05:24,639 I mean, like if if I don't know, if you 125 00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:26,720 still have Henderson and and you know, one of the 126 00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:28,839 other guys like turns out to be good, like you 127 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,240 feel completely different about that defense. So I mean, hopefully 128 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,240 it helps them in the way though that they can 129 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,639 get you know a little more out of Fosky, like 130 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,360 you know, hopefully he makes him a productive player. The 131 00:05:39,399 --> 00:05:41,000 next guy that comes in, he helps turn him into 132 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,680 a productive player, and you know, you get you get 133 00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:45,480 more out of it than just the second round pick 134 00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:48,199 that's a special team or like that's the stuff that 135 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,839 can't happen. And I think I think that overall since seventeen, 136 00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:53,759 I mean, they've got to one Pro Bowl or overall, 137 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,160 and he's a center, Like I think. I didn't mean 138 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,680 you look at the team and say like, hey, like 139 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,120 why aren't they they good? It's it's really that like 140 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,800 they are't getting enough out of their drafts. 141 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,639 Speaker 3: Nick La, you were on here last Tuesday, and I 142 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,519 don't remember who asked you, was Jig or tab One 143 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,439 of them was saying, you know, if you had to 144 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,079 pick right now, where do you think the Saints are 145 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,000 leaning Round one? And you you threw out the name 146 00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:16,040 Ash and Genty and I you know that that kind 147 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,399 of surprise a little bit of people. 148 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: Are you still kind of. 149 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 4: Feeling that, Yeah, Hemmer or Warren I think would be 150 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,000 the two guys that I'm looking at. You know, I 151 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,519 think if sh was there, they wouldn't draft them. You know, 152 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,120 I don't think like Mason Graham's going to make it there, 153 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,879 Like he's probably gonna go in the top eight. So 154 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,279 if you were there, i'd have him on the list too. 155 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,319 But I think got a lot of people that are 156 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,279 expected to be there. I think it's it's probably those 157 00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:45,639 two guys that that they're probably looking at the you know, 158 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,680 the the closest, you know, I think there's needs there too, 159 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,720 Like obviously like Genty's, I think I think he's he's 160 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,920 you know, different, like I think, and a really good 161 00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:57,800 running back draft class, Like he kind of stands alone. 162 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,759 I think it's the top pretty far away from the 163 00:06:59,759 --> 00:07:03,000 rest the pack, you know, and philosophically, like I've been 164 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,639 someone that's like, you know, get them in the third 165 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,160 round and kind of develop them. But I do think 166 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,319 there is a shift in the league a little bit 167 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,839 with how running backs are getting valued. They're getting paid money, 168 00:07:13,639 --> 00:07:15,759 you know now that that they weren't getting paid before, 169 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,279 they're going to get drafted higher. You know, it's just 170 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,399 kind of shifting back more towards a run game. That's 171 00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:22,959 kind of just obviously you know the trend and how 172 00:07:22,959 --> 00:07:26,199 it kind of goes. Defenses get smaller, everybody starts building 173 00:07:26,199 --> 00:07:29,319 their defenses for nickel packages. So now offenses are going 174 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,480 to veer back, and you know, I think you kind 175 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,480 of saw defenses catch up overall, and that's just kind 176 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920 of how the league goes. You know. It's like we 177 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,399 go from skinny jeans to baggy jeans back to skinny 178 00:07:39,439 --> 00:07:40,639 g Like it's just kind of the way, you know, 179 00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:43,360 football kind of follows the same pattern. So yeah, I 180 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,959 think I think we're back on the on the running 181 00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:46,920 back thing there. You know, I think he's gonna get 182 00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:50,079 drafted pretty high. You know. I think the counter argument 183 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,399 to that will be is, like, do you have the 184 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,160 line to support them? Like Takua without the Eagles line 185 00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:56,480 was a thousand yard running back to Takuon with the 186 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,519 Eagles line was a two thousand yard running back like 187 00:07:59,079 --> 00:08:01,040 in the Saints, pick full advantage of it, you know 188 00:08:01,079 --> 00:08:03,120 that that would be the counter that tight end. I 189 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,000 think Warren's definitely in that mix. Lovelin, who is you know, 190 00:08:08,079 --> 00:08:09,839 obviously a good player, but I think the shoulder kind 191 00:08:09,839 --> 00:08:11,399 of screwed him a little bit. I think I think 192 00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:14,800 Warren goes first, and you know, if you want the 193 00:08:15,199 --> 00:08:18,079 blocking and all that, like, I think I think Warren's 194 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,800 kind of the guy that that you will favor. So 195 00:08:19,959 --> 00:08:22,519 I think he's he's a real option at nine too. 196 00:08:23,519 --> 00:08:26,079 But if if you know Mason Grahamer to fall, I 197 00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:27,600 think I think I probably put him at the top, 198 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,680 But I just don't think he's going to be. 199 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,519 Speaker 3: There as far as Tyler Warren is nick. I mean, look, 200 00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:33,600 there's there's obviously been a lot of talk. Are the 201 00:08:33,639 --> 00:08:36,639 Saints gonna keep Taysom? Are they gonna trade taysm what's 202 00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:38,399 his trade value? What can he bring to the Saints? 203 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,799 Did they kind of viewed Tyler Warren as maybe that 204 00:08:41,799 --> 00:08:44,200 that that Taysom Hill style player, because you know, he 205 00:08:44,279 --> 00:08:45,679 lined up a quarterback a lot at. 206 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,399 Speaker 4: Penn State can definitely give you some of it. You know, 207 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,919 I kind of like when I look at him, I 208 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,600 kind of I kind of tap back a little bit too. 209 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,639 I used to cover the Patriots when they had Gronk 210 00:08:56,639 --> 00:08:58,720 and Hernandez and like, you know, one of the things 211 00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:02,120 with with Kellen Moore that he really likes to pace 212 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,360 and there's a lot of no huddle and they're usually 213 00:09:04,879 --> 00:09:06,720 right at the top of the league in the huddle, 214 00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:09,480 top two three, like every year he's been in the league. 215 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,159 And you know, one of the things the Patriots did 216 00:09:12,159 --> 00:09:16,399 really well, you know with you know, they were different players, 217 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:17,759 Like I'm not saying it like I don't think I 218 00:09:17,759 --> 00:09:20,919 don't think Todd Warren's like like like, you know, there's 219 00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:23,720 probably more I don't. I don't know, like he's not 220 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,440 a Hernandus type player, but with the way that he 221 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,279 can move around and do all kinds of different things, 222 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,639 like there is some similarity there. And like the key 223 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,039 to the Patriots now huddle in that eleventh season but 224 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,039 was just like they were able to just kind of 225 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,519 put him everywhere, like he's a tailback on one play, 226 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,080 flex tight end on another, he's put out wide as 227 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,240 a wide receiver, and like they kind of stole from 228 00:09:42,279 --> 00:09:43,919 Chip Kelly and they were doing like a one word 229 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,720 turbo offense, and like just that ability to move around 230 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,080 and create a mismatch like no matter what the defense 231 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,440 was doing. Like I think he could give you some 232 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,519 of that in that package more so than even Taysom could. 233 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:56,759 But yeah, I mean I think I think there's some 234 00:09:56,799 --> 00:09:58,840 crossover there for sure. I mean I think there's some 235 00:09:58,879 --> 00:10:02,000 similarity overall. I don't think you take him and you know, 236 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:04,960 try to do everything. And I obviously one of the 237 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,799 things that makes Taysom Taysom is that you kind of 238 00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:09,639 just have to respect the fact that he might just 239 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,639 you know, pull up until the ball on the field. 240 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,440 But there's definitely definitely some flexibility there that I think, 241 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,159 you know, makes some Rarren kind of opens up some 242 00:10:17,159 --> 00:10:18,320 of those things that you might want to do. 243 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 3: Nick unurial of you all is done football our guest 244 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,240 right now. Nick, We've talked a lot about, you know, 245 00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:25,080 the first round, whether it's a gend, whether it's Warren. 246 00:10:25,159 --> 00:10:27,039 As far as the later rounds go, is there a 247 00:10:27,159 --> 00:10:29,879 position group or maybe even a particular player you'd like 248 00:10:29,919 --> 00:10:30,720 the Saints to go after. 249 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,919 Speaker 4: I mean, man, they need everything, so you know, I 250 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,399 look everywhere. You know, there's a quarterback that I think 251 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,360 maybe like like in the very late rounds, Deckers Iowa State, 252 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,720 he got hoought for gamble and had to go to Juco. 253 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,759 I think he's somebody that's kind of interesting. I think 254 00:10:47,799 --> 00:10:49,639 I think he's got some some traits that are that 255 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,279 are pretty good. But you know, I just think I 256 00:10:52,279 --> 00:10:54,360 think they could just do anything at any pick. And 257 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,240 you know, there's not there's not a single spot on 258 00:10:57,279 --> 00:10:58,600 the steam where you're like, no, they don't need a 259 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,159 player there to start yeah, I mean I'm trying to 260 00:11:03,159 --> 00:11:05,559 take a one right now, maybe linebacker, Like linebacker might 261 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,360 be a little a little bold, but I think you 262 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,320 could still add one for depth. But I think they 263 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,559 just need to I think they can really go bta 264 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,879 it in there any spot in the draft and you know, 265 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,799 be be good like I don't. I don't think you 266 00:11:19,799 --> 00:11:21,639 have to really kind of single anything out like I'm 267 00:11:21,919 --> 00:11:23,720 I kind of I kind of like that for him, 268 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,519 but it's also a bad place to be that you 269 00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:28,879 can justify that in pretty much any spot. But yeah, 270 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:30,759 I think they could do anything and it wouldn't be 271 00:11:30,799 --> 00:11:31,240 a surprise. 272 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:32,519 Speaker 1: Nick. 273 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 3: I wanted to bring this up and ask you this. 274 00:11:35,039 --> 00:11:37,000 I brought it up a little bit earlier on the show. 275 00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:39,399 You know, there was a report that came out that 276 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,159 a reporter put out that, oh, the Saints might cut 277 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,360 Tyron Matthew and then Tyron said no. I wanted to 278 00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:47,120 get your thoughts on that. What do you think Tyron 279 00:11:47,159 --> 00:11:49,720 Matthew's future is with the Saints this season? 280 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,759 Speaker 2: And then after. 281 00:11:52,519 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's tough. I mean, you know, there's different people 282 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,840 in the building now, so you know, it might just 283 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,159 take one department that a different opinion. To kind of 284 00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:03,159 kind of sway a decision. So I don't I don't 285 00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:06,159 want to say anything like definitive, but you know, from 286 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,000 the questions I've been asking, and I was asking these 287 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,039 questions this week before it even came out, like the 288 00:12:11,039 --> 00:12:12,399 feeling I got is that he was going to be 289 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,639 on the team, But I don't. I can't say that 290 00:12:15,799 --> 00:12:18,360 is definitively as I you know, we just haven't seen 291 00:12:18,399 --> 00:12:21,080 these people work like I've never seen Brandon Saley make 292 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,279 a decision before, so it's kind of even a little 293 00:12:23,279 --> 00:12:26,399 bit harder to anticipate that. But you know, I kind 294 00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:27,639 of I kind of think he's going to be on 295 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,720 the team, you know, but I think they're in a 296 00:12:30,759 --> 00:12:33,639 place where where anything could happen, and you know, they 297 00:12:33,639 --> 00:12:36,679 do need to get younger at some point. And if 298 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,799 he's on the team this year, like I do, I 299 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,879 didn't that there's probably a you know, I need to 300 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,919 show vast improvement as a team overall to continue to 301 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:49,200 say the course beyond you know, this season. If they're 302 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,840 trying to win again this year, and it sounds like 303 00:12:50,879 --> 00:12:53,519 they are, if they fail at that mission, you know, 304 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,240 I think you you really got to get younger in 305 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,120 hurry if if you win a bunch of games in 306 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,720 surprise people, you know, I think kind of trying to 307 00:12:59,759 --> 00:13:03,320 keep together. But look, he's startedly reaching a point too 308 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,120 in his career where you know, it's it's there's a 309 00:13:07,159 --> 00:13:09,840 couple of years left on the clock. So I don't 310 00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:12,519 think it's like, you know, there's a wide swath of 311 00:13:12,799 --> 00:13:16,200 runway there left. But I think Kyron probably has about 312 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,600 two three years left to him, you know, I think 313 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,000 that's how long he wants to play. I think I've 314 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,200 heard him say that before. And you know, I think, 315 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,240 as you're trying to establish a culture and everything, I 316 00:13:25,279 --> 00:13:27,320 got like that having him around makes a lot of sense. 317 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,080 But look, one of the things on my on my 318 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,639 draft list would be a safety. And I think one 319 00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:33,720 of the benefits of taking a safety now is that 320 00:13:33,759 --> 00:13:35,200 you get him in the building, you put him next 321 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,240 to Tyron Tires, can kind of show him how to 322 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,679 be a pro, how to take care of your body, 323 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,399 how to study out to prepare all this stuff. Like, 324 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,600 I don't think there's anybody on the team that you know, 325 00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:46,080 does that stuff better than him. So I think he's 326 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,559 still a great asset in the locker room. And you 327 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,720 know I would be surprised, you know, just kind of 328 00:13:51,759 --> 00:13:53,279 kind of the questions I was asking, like it just 329 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,039 kind of seemed like there was an opinion that he 330 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,799 was going to be on this team. But you know, 331 00:14:00,399 --> 00:14:02,879 if you don't play a premium position and you know 332 00:14:02,879 --> 00:14:05,080 you're making a little bit of money, like anything can happen. 333 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,519 Speaker 3: I guess that's kind of leads me right into my 334 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,120 next question as far as the safety position next you 335 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,440 with Tyron Matthew. I mean, obviously it's going to be 336 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,639 a high priority because you're thin there. But I mean, 337 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,559 do you think the Saints prefer maybe go get one 338 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,120 of the younger free agents that are going to be unrestricted, 339 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:20,159 or are they going to fill. 340 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:20,799 Speaker 2: That need in the draft. 341 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,279 Speaker 4: I think you've got to do both. I mean, they 342 00:14:24,279 --> 00:14:26,440 don't really have anything there. Like I had to, I 343 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,679 would bring back Will Harris and then you know, try 344 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,080 to try to not one in the draft somewhere. You know, 345 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,240 one of Joseph Man. You look at what he did 346 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,279 at Texas, Like he took that secondary they were like 347 00:14:36,279 --> 00:14:37,840 one of the worst secondaries in the league. And then 348 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,320 in like the sense of pass rating efficiency. By his 349 00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:43,360 last year at Texas, they were second. I mean, like, 350 00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:46,360 so they've done a really good job of getting players there, 351 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,480 developing them, making them better.

Just just play the 400 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,200 air guitar while the song plays. 401 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 5: Okay. 402 00:16:50,519 --> 00:16:52,399 Speaker 1: So I don't know if like, because that was like 403 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,279 during the summer, so I don't here. Yeah, I've been 404 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,279 here like a few months. So I don't know if 405 00:16:58,279 --> 00:17:00,320 T Bob knew me well enough to know that I 406 00:17:00,399 --> 00:17:05,119 was secretly freaking the out while he was letting that happen. 407 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,279 Speaker 2: Oh, it was a holiday. 408 00:17:06,319 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: I started to turn it down and he said, don't 409 00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:08,880 get scared. 410 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 6: Turn it out. 411 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:11,279 Speaker 2: It was a holiday. 412 00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 3: Jake wasn't here, so Team Bob probably didn't care one 413 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,640 way or the other. 414 00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: He stays giving me heart attacks. 415 00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 2: All right. It teas it a little bit going in 416 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:20,039 a break. 417 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 3: Funny story coming out of an NBA team, and it 418 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,119 happens to be the Dallas Mavericks. On Monday, the Mavericks 419 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,680 revealed that they are raising season ticket prices for next year. 420 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,119 The prices will go up about nine percent next season 421 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,240 and the increase is due to ongoing investments into the 422 00:17:38,279 --> 00:17:43,079 team and increased fan engagement. What are you investing into 423 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,279 the team. You just got rid of a top five 424 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,000 player in the NBA who's only twenty five years old, who, 425 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,799 by the way, is thriving with the Los Angeles Lakers. 426 00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:54,559 Speaker 2: We'll get into that a little bit later. Look, they 427 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:55,119 said that. 428 00:17:57,279 --> 00:17:59,799 Speaker 3: If you're in club level, your tickets are gonna rise 429 00:17:59,799 --> 00:18:02,440 more than ten percent this year for season ticket holders. 430 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,680 As far as uh compared to last year, terrorist levels 431 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,880 are gonna go up twenty bucks to twenty four dollars 432 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:12,519 per game. And this is all to apparently future investments 433 00:18:12,559 --> 00:18:15,240 into the franchise. Forget the fact that you traded away 434 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,400 your entire franchise. What did you get back? You got 435 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,000 an Anthony Davis in return, who had a good first 436 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,759 game with you. He dropped twenty six points. And what 437 00:18:23,799 --> 00:18:26,079 did Anthony Davis do after that? Well, he did when 438 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,519 Anthony Davis does. He got hurt, he had a growing 439 00:18:28,599 --> 00:18:30,880 injury left and he really hadn't played much since. And 440 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,519 when you look at the NBA standings at the time 441 00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:36,640 Luka Doncic was traded, the Mavericks were hovering on that 442 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,440 seven to eight line. I mean way, they were right 443 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,200 there in the thick of it. As far as playoff contention. Now, 444 00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:44,799 the Dallas Mavericks sit at the ten spot thirty two 445 00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:47,319 and thirty, so just two games over five hundred. In 446 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,720 their last ten games, they are five and five. Jordan 447 00:18:51,799 --> 00:18:54,400 mentioned daring Break that the Pelicans will take on the 448 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,160 Los Angeles Lakers tonight, and uh, that's bad news for 449 00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:58,839 the Pelicans. 450 00:18:58,839 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: Why, oh, it's good news. Great, Okay, we'll get there. 451 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,319 Speaker 3: The reason is is because when you give Lebron James 452 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,319 arguably the best player in the NBA, yeah, good things 453 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,759 are gonna happen. If you look at the Western Conference 454 00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:14,680 standing right now, Look, it's OKC, far and away. They're 455 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,039 fifty and eleven right now. They're having an incredible season. 456 00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:19,279 Shake Gil just Alexander is probably going to run away 457 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,200 with the MVP. He dropped another fifty burger last night. 458 00:19:22,799 --> 00:19:25,039 The Los Angeles Lakers are sitting in the two spot 459 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,880 right now because they have the tiebreaker over the Denver Nuggets. 460 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,599 They're thirty eight and twenty one. They are eight and 461 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,680 two in their last ten games. It took Luca a 462 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,279 little while to get going, but guess what he's in 463 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,400 playoff for him already. Lebron James his numbers this year 464 00:19:40,759 --> 00:19:44,160 twenty six and a half points, eight point one rebounds, 465 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,440 eight point three assists. That is better than in twenty 466 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,079 thirteen when he won the MVP Award with the Miami Heat, 467 00:19:51,319 --> 00:19:53,839 he averaged about the same number of points, about a 468 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,000 rebound and a half less per game, and a total 469 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,759 assist less per game. Lebron James right now is playing 470 00:19:58,799 --> 00:20:00,680 better at the age of forty than he was in 471 00:20:00,759 --> 00:20:03,519 his MVP season back in twenty thirteen with the Miami Heat, 472 00:20:03,599 --> 00:20:05,960 and he has a top five player on his team 473 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,960 as his wingman in Luka Doncic, and the Mavericks are 474 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,279 gonna sit there and be like, guys, we're investing into 475 00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:14,039 the future of this franchise. We want fan engagement to 476 00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:17,039 come back. Oh why did fan engagement leaving in yet? 477 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,640 Because you got rid of Luka Doncic. Look when you 478 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,200 look at the Western Conference standings, it's a hiye opening. 479 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 2: I mean, look, the Pelicans are terrible. We got that. 480 00:20:25,559 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 3: We'll get into them in just a second. But the 481 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,000 Lakers have a complete turnaround. I mean they were almost 482 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,039 out of the playoff. They were about the seven spots. 483 00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:36,200 I mean they were they were kind of right there 484 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,200 with the Mavericks. They have exploded the last few games. 485 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,240 They were on a six game a winning streak again, 486 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,599 eight and two in their last six games. They're not 487 00:20:44,759 --> 00:20:48,279 slowing down. Do I think the Lakers can make it 488 00:20:48,319 --> 00:20:50,920 to the NBA Finals, No, I do not. Here's why 489 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,519 they don't have quite the firepower top to bottom roster 490 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,640 out in Oklahoma, said he Thunderdo. The thunder are also 491 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,319 a lot younger, even with Luka Doncic. Also, if they 492 00:21:00,319 --> 00:21:03,279 take on the Denver Nuggets, they don't have that post player. 493 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:07,200 Remember they tried to trade for Mark Williams. Mark Williams 494 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,759 did not pass is physical, so the Lakers renigged on 495 00:21:09,799 --> 00:21:13,200 that trade. If they had Mark Williams, a post player, 496 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,799 a dominant guy down low, I would feel completely different 497 00:21:15,799 --> 00:21:16,480 about this team. 498 00:21:16,759 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 2: They don't have that. 499 00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 3: I mean, Jackson Hayes right now is still your primary 500 00:21:20,039 --> 00:21:23,000 post player. If Jackson Hayes is your primary post player, 501 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,000 you don't have a post player. I don't think the 502 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,160 Lakers can win it. But look the turnaround they have made. 503 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,359 The trade they were able to dish out to get 504 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,079 Luka Doci from the Dallas Mavericks, the fact that they're 505 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,960 the two seed in the Western Conference, the fact that 506 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,079 they've won six games in a row. That's impressive, nonetheless, 507 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,119 and it just goes to show the incompetence of the 508 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,039 Dallas Mavericks because I mentioned that they were five and 509 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,079 five in their last ten games. They're on a two 510 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,720 game losing streak. They don't really have any signs of live. 511 00:21:50,759 --> 00:21:52,720 Anthony Davis is in and out of the lineup. Kyrie 512 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,279 Irvan is carrying this entire team, and the Mavericks have 513 00:21:55,319 --> 00:21:58,599 the audacity to be like, well, yeah, they going there, 514 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,160 you go and then and then you know, Anthony Davis, 515 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,920 he's still in and out of the lineup, and you're 516 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,559 gonna have the audacity to be like, guys, we have 517 00:22:04,599 --> 00:22:07,240 to have a nine percent ticket increase. I mean, you 518 00:22:07,279 --> 00:22:09,039 want us to invest in the future of the franchise. 519 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,720 We don't any star players the future of the franchise 520 00:22:12,759 --> 00:22:16,200 for the next ten years. Kankis is twenty five years old, 521 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,119 and you're gonna go. 522 00:22:17,079 --> 00:22:20,279 Speaker 2: To his fans fat. No, he's not fat, That's just 523 00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:20,880 what he looks like. 524 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 3: He's looked like that his entire career. I make fun 525 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:24,960 of Zion Williams. 526 00:22:24,519 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 2: And all the time. I get it. 527 00:22:25,759 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 3: I'm not a fan of Zion to make fun of 528 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,440 him all the time. Zion's dropped like twenty pounds since 529 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:31,039 the start of the season. 530 00:22:31,079 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 2: Get this way. 531 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,519 Speaker 3: He still looks big though. That's just how he looks. 532 00:22:34,839 --> 00:22:38,480 Lukadancich isn't fat either. Luca's going out there dropping triple doubles. 533 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,079 You gotta be in shape to do this. The Mavericks 534 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,680 are slapping their fan base in the face, just saying, hey, 535 00:22:44,759 --> 00:22:47,559 we gotta increase prices. We want you guys to come back. 536 00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:49,119 We want to increase fan engagement. 537 00:22:49,319 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 2: You had it. 538 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 3: You were a team that made it to the NBA 539 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,839 Finals a year ago. You were two games away from 540 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,680 winning the damn thing. You had the future of the league. 541 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,519 You had a top five player who was in his 542 00:22:59,519 --> 00:23:02,440 physical He was twenty four years old last season. He's 543 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,519 sitting there at twenty five, and you got rid of 544 00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:07,960 him for Anthony Davis and Max Christy. Are you kidding 545 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,359 me right now? And you're gonna increase ticket prices by 546 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,039 ten percent? Absolutely not. 547 00:23:12,279 --> 00:23:14,599 Speaker 1: You're forgetting the twenty twenty nine draft picks. 548 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 2: You're right, I apologize. 549 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: They have a draft pick four years from now that 550 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,319 I'm sure is going to turn out to be like 551 00:23:20,319 --> 00:23:23,519 an average NBA player in the future. You're absolutely right. 552 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,839 My apologies, maybe Nico Harrison doesn't know what he's doing, 553 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,519 and then you're gonna raise ticket prices for franchise investment 554 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,640 and fan engagement, which you already had both of these things. No, 555 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,160 this is an awful look for the Dallas Mavericks, it's 556 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:42,200 awful for the NBA, and the Los Angeles Lakers pulled 557 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,880 a highway robbery on this again. They sit there at 558 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,799 the two seed in the Western Conference. Jordan, You're New 559 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,440 Orleans Pelicans sit there at the fifteen seed. 560 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 2: They are. Don't worry. 561 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:59,599 Speaker 3: They're only thirty three games back from the Oklahoma City 562 00:23:59,599 --> 00:24:03,440 Thunder for the number one spot. So bang up job 563 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,599 by them as well. A Landras San Antonio Spurs sit 564 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,359 down a bird paths, which, golly, there's a big gap 565 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,559 between the Spurs and the Pelicans. Yeah, it was an 566 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,720 eight game difference between that one spot. Guys, I watched 567 00:24:17,799 --> 00:24:20,839 two basketball games last night, one of which was Houston 568 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,759 and Kansas. It was a phenomenal game. He used to 569 00:24:23,759 --> 00:24:25,720 couper is one of the best teams in college basketball. 570 00:24:26,319 --> 00:24:29,279 The other game I watched was the Duga Blue Devils 571 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,839 against the wake Forest Demon Deacons. And I'm not one 572 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,559 for hyperbole, but at least in the past ten years, 573 00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:38,880 Cooper Flag might be the best college basketball player I 574 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,519 have seen. He's six', nine he can run the, floor 575 00:24:43,079 --> 00:24:45,200 he can be your primary ball. Handler he's one of 576 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,559 the best passers on the. Court he hit a step 577 00:24:47,599 --> 00:24:50,119 back three in a guy's face two different times last. 578 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,119 Night and you, know he was just kind of toy 579 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,880 on with Wake. Forest in the first half he had ten. 580 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,240 Points he finished with twenty, eight and that's because they 581 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:57,799 pulled him off the court with about four and a 582 00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:00,359 half minutes to. Go he could have had over. Thirty no. 583 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,960 Problem whoever gets the number one pick in THIS Nba 584 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,960 draft lottery is going to have a franchise changing. 585 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 2: Player The Utah. 586 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 3: Jazz The Utah jazz right now have the best odds 587 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,839 to do.

Dart he had an excellent combine and, 717 00:31:11,359 --> 00:31:15,400 honestly there's people that believe he could BE qb. TWO 718 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,559 i was a little hesitant on, this but when you 719 00:31:19,599 --> 00:31:22,480 look at the, resume it kind of makes. 720 00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 2: SENSE i, Mean. 721 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,359 Speaker 3: Dart was a three year starter in THE. Sec he 722 00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:29,480 played in a lot of big. Games, now if you 723 00:31:29,519 --> 00:31:32,039 go back and look at those big, games there was 724 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,119 mixed performances in, there to say the least For Jackson. 725 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,559 Dark but, look he's played in an elite conference against 726 00:31:37,559 --> 00:31:40,160 a lot of elite defenses he's played in big time. 727 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,920 Games not only did he improve as a passer every single, 728 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,839 year he's also the more mobile of the two between 729 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,079 him And Shador. Sanders so if you're looking for a mobile, 730 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,240 quarterback not that Cam ward is. Either camward's not necessarily 731 00:31:53,319 --> 00:31:55,799 a mobile. Quarterback but, okay if you go look at 732 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,039 what he did running, wise in twenty twenty, four he 733 00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:02,599 had four hundred ninety five yards, rushing not only three rushing, 734 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,599 touchdowns but in twenty twenty three another four hundred yards, 735 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,880 rushing eight rushing. Touchdowns jackson dark can take off and. 736 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,400 Run THE nfl game is going more and more towards. 737 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,200 That you're seeing. THAT i, mean look at the Philadelph 738 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,960 eagles are a prime. Example they just won The Super 739 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,039 bowl With Jalen hurts as their starting. Quarterback, Also Shador 740 00:32:21,119 --> 00:32:24,160 sanders has good, numbers but look at What Jackson dard 741 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,000 did his first year At Old. Miss twenty nine hundred, 742 00:32:27,079 --> 00:32:30,640 yards twenty, touchdowns eleven, picks kind of an average. Season 743 00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:34,799 in twenty twenty, three he improved his completion percentage by 744 00:32:34,799 --> 00:32:37,519 three whole percentage points thirty three hundred, yards twenty three, 745 00:32:37,559 --> 00:32:40,720 touchdowns five, picks and again he had the eight touchdowns 746 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:41,480 to go along with it as. 747 00:32:41,519 --> 00:32:43,839 Speaker 2: Well through thirty one total touchdowns. 748 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 3: Last, year sixty nine point three percent completion percentage forty 749 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,480 two hundred, yards twenty nine, touchdowns six. Interceptions Jackson dart 750 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,240 has gotten better in every aspect of the quarterback position 751 00:32:55,599 --> 00:32:57,720 for three years in a. Row, now, now how much 752 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:58,680 of that is Laying kiffin's. 753 00:32:58,720 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 2: Offense it's very. 754 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 3: Quarterback but when you go look At Jackson dart, again 755 00:33:03,559 --> 00:33:05,960 he's been in a lot of big. Games this is 756 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,960 Not Shadoor sanders's fault because, look when you look At 757 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,960 shador's raw, numbers they're very. 758 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 2: Good his first year At colorado. 759 00:33:13,079 --> 00:33:17,119 Speaker 3: Twenty twenty, three sixty nine percent, completion twenty seven, touchdowns three. 760 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,880 Picks last year he had ten, picks but they threw 761 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,680 the ball a whole lot. More seventy four percent completion 762 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,799 percentage forty one hundred yards For Shoudoor, sanders thirty seven. 763 00:33:25,839 --> 00:33:28,160 Touchdowns So shador had a really good year in his own. 764 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,839 Right the issue, is and again this is Not Shoudoor sanders's. 765 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,440 FAULT i mentioned all the great defenses That Jackson dart, 766 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,160 played all the big time games he's played In Shodowarck 767 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,000 sanders hasn't really played in a big game. Now in 768 00:33:42,039 --> 00:33:44,319 twenty twenty, three he played some good, teams BUT i 769 00:33:44,359 --> 00:33:46,559 mean they weren't ready to. Compete in twenty twenty, Three 770 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,799 oregon blew the doors off of. Them you, know same 771 00:33:48,839 --> 00:33:51,519 thing With washington all. That in terms of big, time 772 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,200 down to the wire, games there wasn't a. TON i, 773 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,039 mean they Beat baylor early in the, year but That baylor, 774 00:33:57,119 --> 00:33:58,960 TEAM i, mean you, know they were kind of a 775 00:33:58,960 --> 00:33:59,680 middle of the road. 776 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: TEAM lsu saw him in the bowl. Game they're, fine but. 777 00:34:03,119 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 3: That might be the biggest game That Shador sanders played 778 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,199 in in twenty twenty. Four, again it's not his, fault 779 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,079 but when you're drafting a guy that, high you gotta 780 00:34:12,079 --> 00:34:13,960 make sure that he can perform when the lights come. 781 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,199 On shoudor put up the. NUMBERS i just don't know 782 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,280 how good the defenses were did he? Faced and, honestly 783 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:23,239 to that, point should Cam ward be? First BECAUSE i 784 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,360 gotta be, honest IF i was drafting between Cam ward 785 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,920 And Shador, Sanders i'm probably Taking Shador. SANDERS i just 786 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,960 think he looked a little bit better in. College now 787 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,559 he held onto the ball too. Long but you could 788 00:34:32,559 --> 00:34:35,519 honestly say all the critiques you, hear and all the 789 00:34:35,559 --> 00:34:37,960 CRITICISMS i just made about Shaduor, sanders you can kind 790 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,239 of say the same thing about Cam. 791 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,519 Speaker 2: WARD i don't think. 792 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 3: There's a bona fide number one player as far as 793 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,239 the quarterback, Position But jackson darts. Rising shador seems to 794 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,440 be falling a little. Bit we'll see what happens with Cam. 795 00:34:48,519 --> 00:34:50,960 Ward because a lot of people, believe, Oh shadoor and 796 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,400 Cam ward are both bona fide top five. Picks that 797 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,440 may not be the. Case we'll have to see when 798 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,679 THE Nfl draft rolls.
