Speaker 1 (00:00):
Your home for the twelfth Man Probably presents the twenty
twenty six NFL Draft, Live from Pittsburgh, presented by Frost
Brood COR's Light, Cold as the Rockies and brought to
you by Dino's Pub and Renan on Sports Radio ninety
three point three kJ r FM.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
All right, welcome in. Our live in local coverage of
the twenty twenty six NFL Draft resumes less than twelve
hours after it ended last night, says Ian Furnesced with
you here at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. Yeah, the
draft is live from Pittsburgh. We're live from the Virginia
Mason Athletics Center on the shores of Lake Washington on
what looks to be a gorgeous day. My guy Rob

(00:41):
rang is here. We've turned to Hugh millin loose. He's
like the commissioner, like Roger Goodell. No need to be
here on day three, so as you and me, buddy
for like the fifteenth Street year. And here we go, Buddy,
Good to see you, man, to see you as well.
All right, let's gotta go through. We got coming up
today and again thanks for joining us. I know this fun.
First of all, I'm gonna be Jess. I think we

(01:03):
need a seat belt here because my guy here is
looking outside at that sunshine thinking there's a lake and
he's got a fishing pole in the car and he's
ready to rock and roll, right I do in the car.
That's gonna be an issue. All right, here's what's coming
up today. Seahawks have two picks right now schedule, the
seventh thaught pick in the sixth round and the thirty
fifth pick in the sixth round. So yes, not until

(01:24):
the sixth round. We'll recap what they've done so far, Rob,
and I'll kind of go ahead back and just look
back to the last night. If I mean, listen, stuff's
happened the last night. Kid, you're running around chasing kids,
doing stuff, having fun. We'll catch you up on everything
that happened yesterday on day two and what's happened so
far in the draft, and then also look ahead to
what could happen later on today with the Seahawks. Right now,

(01:46):
it appears to be a very quiet day ahead of us.
Corbyn Smith will joint. Do you know Corbyn Smith? Have
I introduced to him before? Yeah, okay, okay, I'm not
sure if you know Hi Ameral City Spectrum. Robin Corman
for those who't know, do a podcast together, great Locked
on Seahawks podcast. Corban's gonna join us coming up here
at nine to twenty or so. He nailed some picks,
is that right? Did he nail some picks before he

(02:07):
comes on and just starts pumping his chest out. Did
he nail some picks?

Speaker 3 (02:10):
And we actually both had Jenderion Price, you know, the
Notre Dame running back of course in the first round,
but in our little Juelian mock drafts, he also had
Julian Neal, the cornerback from Arkansas as the Sea Howle's
third round selection number nine six overall, he didn't project
the trade down, so okay, good, you know good. Otherwise
he can walk in here with too much of an

(02:31):
ego and wanted to be able to fit that head
through the door. Yeah, but yees, he deserves some credit
for nailing that selection.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
I love it all right. And then coming up at
ten o'clock, I think if you missed the last night
was late last night. We heard from John Schneider and
Mike McDonald after day two, and there's a lot to
discuss with the two players they picked yesterday in Day two,
we got some of the answers from them yesterday, and
so forth again. Pick number six or pick number seven
in the sixth row and pick number thirty five in

(02:57):
the six round. Those are both expected to happen maybe
sometime after twelve, right yep. Yeah, Well we're a ways
away potentially from the Seahawks doing anything. I say potentially
because you just never know, John Schneider, and let's just
start there before I look back. We discussed this last night, Rob.
Right now, just the two picks today left to go

(03:20):
in the twenty twenty six draft, But what do they
have next year which could translate to more activity today.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
Well, they've got all those compensatory selections as well as
all of their seven native picks, so they're expected to
have twelve draft picks in the twenty twenty seven draft.
It's a much richer class. I've already been working on
a mock draft for twenty twenty seven, if you can
believe that, I can, And it does look like a
much better draft class. And so I understand the hesitancy

(03:48):
to trade selections out of that class. But if you
are looking for, you know, some bang for your buck,
right now, then I do think that Seatle might be
willing to package some of their picks next year to
get back into this draft.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Okay, so we'll kind of keep an eye on things
right now. We're expecting a quiet couple three hours, but
that's good for us to kind of recap and discuss
and and look back and look ahead. And we'll do
that with Rob as well. What could be up there
in the sixth round. It's an inch. We've been talking
about this with Rob since basically early September of last year,
and here we are on the final day, Day three

(04:20):
of the twenty twenty six NFL draft as well. All right,
let's kind of look here at what has happened so far. Thursday,
of course, Day one, Jedarian Price, the running back out
of Notre Dame, gets selected by Seattle thirty second pick. Overall,
they stay in that first round, they picked Jadarian Price,
and they get the Basically, now, the thought is it's like, okay,

(04:42):
well he'll share some time, He'll share the load one.
Zach Charbona is healthy. Probably no doubt though that he's
should be RB one at some point.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh, I think he's gonna be RB one right now. Basically,
you know, I just think that his skill set fits
in so well. That's the reason why, you mean, that's
the justification for selecting or running back that early when
you only had you know, four selections, and then certainly
was Zach Sharberney coming back that you know, he's coming
off of a significant knee injury. We're talking about likely

(05:12):
in November, you know, so the season is going to
be well underway by the time that Zach Sharberney is
reasonably expected to be back. George Halaonnie's the heck of
a back. Emmanuel Wilson as Welsh Cardier, Right, I mean,
Seatle's got running backs, but I just don't know that
they have very many that have the breakaway speed a
Jadarim Price possesses. And that's the reason why he select
him number thirty two.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Then yesterday, to recap what the Seahawks did, they took
Bud Clark with the thirty second pick in the second round,
sixty fourth overall. He's a safety out of TCU, a
little bit slightly built in a sense. But let's talk
about Bud Clark. We discussed him a lot last night,
and everyone's had time to kind of digest that what
are they getting in Bud Clark.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
They're getting an absolute ballhawk. I mean, my goodness. I
watched his tape again last night, as I did with
Julian Neil, the cornerback selected in the third round, and
Ian I cannot It is hard to articulate how much
how instinctive that Bud Clark is, how cagy he is
with his arms. I mean, he has long arms, an

(06:15):
excellent hand eye coordination. There were just so many plays
on tape in which it looked like that he was beaten.
It looked like there is about to be a big
play by the offense. Instead he was able to tip
the pass away or steal it himself. He had fifteen interceptions,
a couple they took back to the house. I remember
one against Michigan and JJ McCarthy that was a pick

(06:36):
six that, you know, again, just shows his anticipation, It
shows his hand eye coordination. There are so many tip
passes that other teammates made big plays on as well.
When you have a defense as talented as the Seahawks
inserting this young man into the middle of it, I
think that it's gonna wind up being one of the
real home run selections. Of this entire draft, not just
for the Seahawks but around the league.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Is he a Kobe Bryant replacement.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
I think that he might be a Kobe Bryant upgrade.
And I know that that is a bold statement, but
I'm telling you, the ball skills this young man possesses
are just truly remarkable. I'm really excited about the big
play potential that he offers.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
All right, and then the Seahawks finished off Day two
yesterday with the ninety ninth pick overall, that's the thirty
fifth pick in the third round. They did trade down
three spots and gained a pick in round number six,
So they did do that round number six, as the
pick they gained was number two sixteen overall, the thirty
fifth pick. In round six, they traded up and are

(07:32):
traded down. They did pick up Julian Neal, a cornerback
out of Arkansas, and he is full of bravada. We'll
hear from him a little later in the show today.
If you missed it last night, you thought Richard Sherman
had the ability to talk a little bit smack as
a cornerback, this guy took it to a different level
than even Shirm did. And that's saying something, But what
are they getting to the player and Julian Neil.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
Well, what's funny as they just talked about there with
the safety Bud Clark, who at six point one, one
hundred and eighty eight, he's almost built a little bit
more like a corner and Julian Neal at six two
two o five is built a little bit more like
a safety, and he certainly hits like a safety. That
was one of the things that I was I was
watching the tape and kind of reviewing him last night.

(08:15):
You know, just a physicality. I mean, he it's funny.
They'll th'll do little wide receiver screens or runs to
his side and he will throw down would be blockers
and ball carriers. It's almost like he's looking at them
afterwards like you're being disrespectful by even coming into my
area with this kind of nonsense. And so I just
you understand how the Seahawks were so enamored with the

(08:37):
physicality this young man possesses. He only had sixteen career
starts at the college level, so this is very much
a projection of what he could be. But when you
go from Fresno State to Arkansas, you step up your
game going to the SEC and then you play your
best football. It's easy to get excited about what this
young man could be.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
All right, let's look ahead round six. You've been telling
us again since September our weekly visits on Fridays, big
thanks and shout out to our friends at for Elli's Pizza.
By the way, but you've been telling us that's September
not the deepest draft, especially compared to what's coming up
next year or maybe what we saw last year. So
John Schneider, as we well know, does and has done

(09:18):
over the years, a lot of damage. Today on the
Saturdays when you and I sit here in the back
of the room and wait for things to happen, and
it's been a flurry of activity. Guys like AJ Barner
recently and others have been selected on this day that
have become impact players for this football team. But right now,
he waits until around twelve or so. And also, by
the way, we'll keep you update on what's going on elsewhere,

(09:40):
anything significant that pops up in the draft, names that
you need to know or and we've got one already
which we'll get to in a second. But as far
as Day three and round six, what would they be
looking at in terms of quality.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Well, that's the thing is that you know, when you're
waiting all the way into the sixth round, then you're
going to be basically taking best player available. Now, I
would argue that cornerback is still a positional group that
the numbers suggest that you want to add some more talent.
You know, the Seattle only has six corners currently on
their roster. They entered the draft with five, and then
of course they selected the aforementioned Julie and Neil. They've

(10:16):
got eight safeties when you include Bud Clark, they've got
fourteen linebackers. Now, grand some of those linebackers are the
edge rushers and then some of our off ball linebackers.
But still, cornerback is typically one of the positional groups
for most NFL teams in which they have the highest numbers,
and the Seahawks have among the lowest totals of corners
in all of the NFL teams out there. So I

(10:38):
do think that that is still perhaps a position of
concern in terms of numbers. But when we're getting into
the sixth rounding and you're gonna be taking the best
player available, and of course he remains to be seeing
what's going to happen over these next one hundred picks
or so.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
All right, we'll get Corbin here in just a couple seconds.
Let me just tell you I said we will keep
you updated on things that do happen. Round four is underway.
The first pick in round four, the one hundred first
pick over all in round four, is a player we
talked about before the Seahawks took Neil last night, and
that would be Jamad McCoy, the cornerback out of Tennessee.
He injured his knee in January of twenty twenty five,

(11:14):
sat out all of last season, and then there were
some red flags medically along the way. We did discuss
would Seattle'll take a flyer on this guy because Rob,
if healthy, he would be probably a guy that would
have gone very early in the draft. But the Raiders
take him. The Vegas Raiders take him with the one
hundred first pick overall, the first pick today on Day three.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Yeah, and it's funny. In the years in the past,
it was always the fifth round. It was kind of
the spot where teams were a little bit more willing
to roll the dice on a player. You know, whether
it be a character concern, a medical concern, something like that.
Fifth round was kind of the round that you could
gamble on. You know. Here we are in a twenty
twenty sixth draft that has been widely panned as maybe

(11:55):
lacking a little bit of talent, So it makes sense
that that might jump up to the fourth round where
teams are a little bit more willing to gamble. And
you know, speaking of gambling, I mean, who better than
Las Vegas to be the team exactly right?

Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah, how concerning are his injuries?

Speaker 3 (12:10):
That's the thing is that for him to follow this far,
they've got to be very concerning, you know. But at
the same time, when the talent is significant enough. But yeah,
same time he used the term degenerative. This is not,
I don't believe related to the torn acl which ended
or which kept him sideline for the entire twenty twenty
five season. He was expected to work out at the

(12:33):
Combine because it had been more than a calendar year
since his injury, and when he did not work out,
of course, he still did the medical evaluation in Indianapolis,
and that's where this was flagged. And so the fact
that he was then asked to go back to the
combine and recheck a couple of weeks later in Indianapolis,
and that's when NFL team started getting a little bit

(12:54):
nervous about what exactly was going on with Jermal McNeil.
But clearly it's it's something or Jermal McCoy excuse me,
clearly is something that is significant enough to basically eliminate
him from teams boards for the first two days of
the draft.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
All right, that's the voice of the great Rob Rang
Fox sports dot com, Sawx dot Com and our Draft Insider.
You've been hearing him on our station all year and
of course earlier this week a bunch with Chuck and
Ashley as well as on our show as well. And
he's with us until noon today. Chuck Powell comes in
and twelve Noon takes over at that point in time,
and then Anderson Hurst and Christopher Kid will wrap things

(13:26):
up with the post draft show later on this afternoon.
So we will be here with you all day in
the car driving around. Make sure you got that iHeartRadio
app with you watching little league games today, soccer games, lacrosse,
whatever it might be, softball, Hey, take us with you.
Put the headset on. You can watch the kids, and
we'll keep you up today, especially if the Seahawks make
any news throughout the after earth, throughout the morning and

(13:47):
in the afternoon. All right, we'll take a break, we'll
come back. Let's check in with Corbyn Smith Emerald City Spectrum,
moster dramas as well. Apparently just predicting picks left, right
and sideways. This guy, and he'll tell you about it.
Trust me, he will tell you about it. He came back,
gave Rob big ole high five last night after he
got a Neil pick. He was all happy. But we'll
get in with him. We'll kind of we'll have a

(14:08):
little our own version of Locked on Seahawks coming up
with Corbyn Smith next.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Now back to the twenty twenty six NFL Draft, presented
by Frost Bruin Cors Live, Cold Is the Rockies and
brought to you by Dino's Pelvin, written on Sports Radio
ninety three point three KJR FM.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
All right, we are back at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center,
day three of the twenty twenty six NFL Draft. He infinesse,
Rob rang and joined now by Corbyn Smith, Emerald City Spectrum,
Animal Cityspectrum dot Com. Make sure you subscribe. These guys
are working their butts off. They got every sport covered,
everything in the area, covered everything in a state covered
at Meralcityspectrum dot com Local journalism. We'll tell you about

(14:52):
that in the heartbeat. Of course, Corbin does a terrific
job at the Seahawks. It has for many years as
well Emerald Cityspectrum dot com and to get Corbana on,
we've had these casts of thousands, and Saturday's a perfect
day because we've got a lot to discuss and kind
of some time to do so and sit back. First
of all, congratulations, I heard you just like nailed a
couple picks yesterday.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah, ro Rob and I every year it's kind of
a buddy buddy competition, and he smoked me last year
for Seattle Fix.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
But this year two of the three so far, so
maybe get one more today?

Speaker 2 (15:25):
Which ones you deal?

Speaker 4 (15:27):
I got Julian Neil almost exactly the same pick I
had him in ninety six, and then both of us
had a price going to Seattle.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
With our first selections.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Very good, very good. Well let's let's start there. Let's
we've talked about it, Robin for people who missed it,
Let's get your thoughts first on Jadari and Price and
Corman jump in after.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Yeah, I just love the fit. I mean, he is
a player that, you know, I think is perfectly sued
to the wide zone offense that Seattle runs. I think
that you know, his his size at five to eleven,
two hundred and five pounds, you know he had when
you here are those numbers, he sounds a little bit slight,
but when you watch him his balance through contact, the

(16:05):
fact that he was a very productive, you know, touch
guy in the red zone, and so we wanted premier
touchdown guys in all the country. Even though he was
basically used as a you know, as a complimentary threat
to Jeremiah Love, he went number three overall. I think
there's just so much untapped potential with him. He wasn't
asked to be a receiver out of the backfield, and

(16:27):
yet those are that's a skill set that I think
that he absolutely possesses. I think that Cele's offensive coordinator
Brian Florey is going to take full advantage of.

Speaker 4 (16:36):
Yeah, look, you've seen what the NFL thinks of this
running back draft class.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
There was three.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
Running backs total picked in the first three rounds. Jennaring
Price is an explosive playmaker. And I've mentioned this on
social I'm gonna mention it again here, my cop. I
think he's a lighter, faster Sean Alexander. I think he
has that gliding running style that dude, the one cut,
get inside, make a guy miss, and then the ability

(17:05):
to take at the distance. And for people that don't
remember how Sean Alexander played for Seattle in the prime
of his career, just go watch that Vikings game on
Monday Night Football that he scored like eighteen touchdowns.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
Okay, that's the.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Kind of guy we're talking about here.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
Janarian Price scored a touchdown almost nine percent of his
touches at Notre Dame.

Speaker 3 (17:23):
That's a ridiculous number. When he three of the twenty
two kick returns that he had went for touchdowns. He
had three receiving touchdowns and only had fifteen catches.

Speaker 5 (17:34):
In his entire college career. I mean, the.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
Dude is a scoring machine. That is why you pick
him at number thirty two overall.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Rob What the concerns, but the questions I guess would
be with him is receiving out of the backfield.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, and again I don't think that they're well founded.
I think that they're based off of people who didn't
watch tape. They looked at the stats. Numbers, yeah, exactly,
the numbers, yeah, they you know, because he I think
he said Gorman that he had what fifteen catches over
his college career touchdown exactly. And so because you only
have the fifteen you know, receptions, you know, in three

(18:12):
seasons of playing at Notre Dame, then then people are
going to automatically just assume that he doesn't have good hands.
But you know, why would he have been their kick returner,
which he had three kickoff returns for touchdowns by the way,
why would he have been their kick returner if they
if the you know, if the team didn't didn't believe
that he had reliable hands of the backfield. I just

(18:33):
think that this is a case of a of a
player not being asked to do it. But when you
watch him on tape, as I did, I didn't see drops.
I saw comfort collecting the football and then being able
to get the uh, get himself positioned to be able
to make people miss or run around through them if
if necessary, once he collected the football. So again I

(18:54):
have very little concern about that. The only concern I
guess I would have about him is the fact that
he just hasn't been asked to be kind of the
bell cow, and that's a I think that's a fair
uh concern. Otherwise, based on just pure talent, I think
that he deserved to be selected earlier than number thirty
two overall.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
But I would counter that he's fresh, He's got fresh
legs exactly. Yeah, and you know you can make it.
We'll see what happens. But you could make an argument
based on landing spot for those two Notre Dame running backs,
like I'm fascinated to see what their careers look like
the next four or five years.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Well, you've got a solid offensive line here, right, And really,
I would say in improving by the day offensive line
here Jalen Sundell as you went on, became very you know,
well established and solidified at center, and Zabel will go
into his second year. Cross by all accounts, had maybe
his best season with Seattle. Last season was really I

(19:47):
think Across and Lucas healthy for the first time, the
two of them, the first time they have been healthy
together since their rookie seasons. Right, So you've got obviously
the right guard position, Bradford, Yes, no, whatever, not a
time for the debating that today. But but you've got
that offense line. I don't think that Love has that
same stuff going on in Arizona, right.

Speaker 5 (20:08):
No, he doesn't have the supporting cast.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
They're going to be putting everything on his shoulders, Jadarian Price,
it's going to be, hey, we need you to come in.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
We've already got all these weapons on the outside.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
By the way, we've got the offensive player of the
year on the outside. So he's pretty good.

Speaker 4 (20:22):
You're gonna get You're gonna get some nice boxes to
run against it. And I just think his that gliding
style of his I just think is an excellent fit.
And he had zero drops in his costure. I know
it's a limited sable size, but you turn on the tape.
The guy's got smooth pass. He's got well.

Speaker 2 (20:37):
And Rob brought it up right after you get draft.
In fact, actually Rob brought it up in our pre
draft conversations a month ago last March, and you said it,
you said, Marcus Freeman's not putting him back there to
return kicks. If there's a question about his hands, it's
just he just didn't have the opportunities because again, wait
for it. What happened? Oh that's right, he was playing
behind the number three overall pick who's a very very

(20:58):
good receiver, really good player, Rob Bud Clark. Let's go
back down that road. That could Corban jump back in.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Yeah, so Bud Clark again. The talk about ball skills,
you know, we just talked about that with Jadarion Price.
I mean Bud Clark to me is you know, absolutely
dynamic defensive player in terms of just getting his hands
on footballs. I mean he the past breakups that he
created in the interceptions fifteen career interceptions, some of them

(21:25):
of the just fantastic you know quality. I mean, when
you watch them, you see a guy that has makeup
speed that he has a really intriguing ability to kind
of snake his hand in there at the very last
second to slap the ball the way or to be
able to tip it up to a defender or again
make the interception himself two pick pick six's. You know,

(21:46):
I just see a dynamic talent, especially as Corbyn just
mentioned with Jadarion Price and just the supporting cast that
the that he is going to be playing with in Seattle,
the supporting cast, the Bud that you know the Bud
Clark is going to be inserted into in Seatt. I
think it's going to create that many more trover opportunities
for him and his teammates.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
He was my closest cop to Kobe Bryant in this
draft class. He has a lot of the same traits,
the ball hawking ability, the instincts undercutting routes, and he
is hyper aggressive on that front. And that's why I
asked Mike McDonald yesterday after the draft, like, is there
a balancing act there, because there's a few times on
film that he's gotten he's paid for that aggressiveness, but

(22:26):
more time than not, those that ball savvy and the
ability to be able to jump routes has paid dividends
for him and you don't want to take that playmaking
ability away from him.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
So Rob brought up as just as a safety. I
mean again, Kobe Bryant was a converted corner to safety
might be an upgrade when it's all said.

Speaker 5 (22:44):
And done, he could be.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
The biggest key is going to be health and he's
had some durability issues, though that was more early in
his career. Slightly built, He's slightly built, but I'll tell
you what this guy isn't just you know there, you
have to look at actual film to see how production
is put on. On the stat line, this guy's got
some insane.

Speaker 5 (23:06):
Pass breakups on his film.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
And there was one that was floating around last night
that i'd seen when they were playing I think it
was two years ago against USC in a Bowl game
in the end zone. That it was a perfectly thrown
pass and he he leaped up in the air and
extended his arm and knocked it away and it was
just it was a highlight reel pass breakup.

Speaker 5 (23:24):
But that's what you're gonna get from him.

Speaker 4 (23:26):
I think he's gonna be fun to mix and match
in the slot too, exactly.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
And that's where I actually think.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
He's got better tools to be a slot corner than
Kobe Bryant did.

Speaker 5 (23:36):
He's a much more athletic player.

Speaker 3 (23:38):
He It was funny because I was watching tape of
him last night, and you know, I remember him playing
back as a safety because he was at TCU for
quite some time. But he did play a lot of
that that slot nickel position, and he excelled in that regard,
playing a lot of man demand. And so when you
think about that was one of the things that I
was curious to see how I would approach the fact

(24:01):
that you have a division arrival in the Sansco Fortia
nine Ers, who, of course brought in one of the
great post up kind of receivers in NFL history of
Mike Evans, Like, would Seattle try to bring in a bigger,
taller corner that might be able to kind of match
up with him? Obviously they already have, you know, some
very good corners in Josh Job and of course Devil Witherspoon,
But still I want to see if they would get

(24:22):
another big guy. Bud Clark has that ability, as does
their next selection, Julian Neil.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
Let's get to Julian Neil. He was the final selection
for the Seahawks and the second last pick on Day
two of the draft, ninety ninth overall, thirty fifth pick
in the third round. Julian Neil, the cornerback out of Arkansas.
We'll hear some sound from him in a second. That
was the look, That was the best. That was the
best conference call interview that ever has ever happened here.
We've been doing this for a long time, and the

(24:50):
only one I thought of that would be comparable. Bruce
Iervins was pretty good.

Speaker 5 (24:55):
Kenny Macintosh's was pretty good.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
He was really emotional.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
Yeah, yeah it was emotional, and yeah it had everything else.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Yeah, Bruce Irvin kind of Bruce Irvin took over the
thing and it was like, hey, man, like this, God
will have the truth come out or something and some
other stuff because he was Yeah, the Good Lord said
it was bs. That's right, That's what it was because
he had had some issues off the field and Bruce.
The great thing about Bruce is it never changed like
it got bat. I mean it just he always had

(25:23):
that bottle. But but we'll hear Julian Neil in just
a second. Actually, do we have it right now, Travis,
Let's do this what we'll set up. Let the guys
break his game down. But first let's let Julian Neil
tell you about who he is. Let's do this.

Speaker 6 (25:35):
Julian, I'm going to paint a scenario for you. It's
it's in the fourth quarter. It's a critical time. You
get the huddle call or from the sideline. What's the coverage,
what's the defense that that you like the most that
you say, yeah, that's the one I want to be
in and what's your role in that?

Speaker 4 (25:55):
So, so we're in a five country a country cover three,
basically a true zone.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Wait, he said, you say we're in a fourth quarter?

Speaker 2 (26:07):
Yeah, fourth quarter?

Speaker 6 (26:08):
Any important situation. What's your favorite what's your favorite defensive call?
And and you're rolling it. So you're saying you're playing
country cover.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Through Oh no, no, no, no no no, we're playing Man,
I'm gonna I'm gonna touch them. I'm gonna I'm gonna
go touch them. I'm gonna go touch on somebody.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
I'm gonna go touch on somebody.

Speaker 7 (26:26):
They're not getting gassed me.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
And if you get gassed.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
I'm gonna look back for the ball and I'm gonna
get that.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
It's simple. And are you gonna punch somebody off the line?

Speaker 6 (26:36):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
Now?

Speaker 6 (26:37):
Are you in off coverage or impressed in this situation?

Speaker 1 (26:41):
I'm in presis, I'm all up in your face.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
I'm gonna get down and dirty with it.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Oh, Rob, you've watched the tape. Can he do all
those things?

Speaker 3 (26:54):
He can get down and dirty with it. You know,
That's the thing that you love about him is how
competitive he is. I mean, he just plays with like
a swag to him. That is just uh, you know,
it's how did Brian how do they say Brian Fleury
say it's entertaining.

Speaker 5 (27:11):
Or enjoy it enjoyable, joyable film.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
It's enjoyable film to watch his film. I mean it
is just like it your you know, your own sense
of just competitiveness is kind of like rises as you
watch him, like, yeah, this guy. You know, it's just
the physicality. I mean there are plays not just against
uh you know in past coverage, but especially against the
run where he just throws walkers to the side and

(27:35):
just like attacks the ball carrier with like a like
a ferocite, like his life is on the line kind
of stuff. And so it's it is exciting, it's enjoyable
tape to watch.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
You know.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
I was talking to our good buddy Nicko Lee that
does Lockedown Seahawks with us. We did our show last
night and we we mentioned this. This feels like this
is a true bridge between the previous era and the
current era of what the Seahawks have looked for at
corner because Julian Neil, like Pete Carroll would have been
pounding his fist on the table to draft Julian Neil.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
He gave me six' to, two the long arm four.

Speaker 5 (28:07):
Fours athletic.

Speaker 4 (28:09):
LONG i mean he he's one of the few guys
in this class that you could make some physical and
athletic comps to Break. Woolen so he would have been
A Pete carroll type. Corner but he has the skill
set That mike McDonald, covets where he is a junk
yard dog and the stuff he was talking, about like
you can say it's, confidence but he is the most
physical corner in this draft. Class the film, shows like

(28:30):
the dude just rag dolls. Blockers he missed four tackles
last year and that's. It so he's a really clean.
Tackler he uses size, well he can track the football.
Well there's some rigidity to the way that he moves
that that is gonna be something they're gonna have to work.
Around but, man if he's boxing people in and pressing
him the way that he likes to, do that makes

(28:51):
it a lot.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
Easier let me stay with the corby for a. Second
Let rob jump in. Afterwards let's let's look at just
where those two guys fit if they were throwing defense
out today and again they're playing if they were to
play a game today in that secondary where Do clark
And neil fit in in terms of the rotation and
where you would see them right?

Speaker 3 (29:10):
NOW i Think neil's a sub packaged corner to start.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
Off when when they're in their nickel sets and they
have two boundaries and they want to Play Devin witherspoon,
inside then he can play the. OUTSIDE i think they're
gonna they're gonna slow play that with him because he's
still got some rawness to his. Gaming he's only been
playing corner for three. Years he was a safety At
Fresno state when he first got to, college right and
actually played some linebacker for them, initially so he's still
kind of new to this. Position they're gonna they're gonna

(29:35):
have some time to work with, him but he's gonna
get some snaps early AND i think by the end
of his rookie year he'll be playing quite a. Bit
as For Bud, CLARK i, LOOK i Love Tya cotta's,
game but, man this this really Hurts Tya cotta's value
Because Bud clark is gonna be coming in ready to
play right away with the experience that he, has and
he's like, polished.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
So there's some true competition.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
There well oh, yeah oh, Yeah Bud clark is not
gonna be fearful Of Julian love or any of those
other guys.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
Either real, quick just to, UPDATE i wanna come bet
we'll come back to The. Seax and, second just get
a quick update for folks listening driving around right. Now
looks like The Denver. Broncos If i'm not, mistaken have they, Selected,
Yes Jonah coleman with the one hundred eighth pick overall fourth.
Round Jonah coleman has gone to The Denver. Broncos So
coleman goes maybe a little later than we thought we'll
get To we'll get to the fourth round in a

(30:21):
second with in the next segment With corbin And rob
before we wrap up the first. Hour all, Right so
same thing to you where you See neil and and
uh And clark fitting in?

Speaker 3 (30:29):
Here, YEAH i think with with With neils, FIRST i
think that you know he is gonna be fighting With
Neimi pritchet to be that kind of top cornerback off the,
bench so to, speak on the, OUTSIDE i DON'T i
don't see him having the quickness that you necessarily want to.
Have and then That nickel, SPOT i think that's gonna
be something more that you're gonna see With Buddy clark
and then obviously With Nickimn, moore and then the free

(30:50):
agent addition And Noah. Igbinoghany if we're gonna go with
like that kind of traditional nickel corner has got some, lateral,
jilly some quickness uh to to mirrored mirror past. Catchers,
WELL i think it's gonna be. Interesting Is Julian neil's
ability on special. TEAMS i, mean to, me he is
like the perfect kind of of a guy who's a

(31:10):
gunner on the. Outside and that is a position That
sele's former wide receiver to Rig young played and then
now is with a member of The Las Vegas, raiders of,
course so that is something That seatle was looking to.
Upgrade AND i think That Julian neil has the, mindset the,
physicality the, size the speed to be able to project
as an immediate difference maker in that. WAY i know
that for a lot of fans listening in that may

(31:32):
not feel like an important thing to be using in
a third round, Selection but when you are as loaded
As seattle as The Super bowl champions, are THEN i
do think that that and you take the and you
take special teams as seriously As seatle does. THAT i
do think that that is one of the ways that
we're gonna we're gonna See Julia neil as a rookie
make an.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Impact, well, SAY i mean there was a there was a,
game pretty significant game decided on special teams exactly on
a fumbled punt twice second. Time it actually.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
Who was the one that recovered that second?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
One? Riko, yeah so you can the gunners are, missed
the first one got the second one and game, changer,
RIGHT i mean game.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Changer and let's, say and speaking of special, teams of,
course for those of you who don't, know the reason
Why seattle doesn't have a fourth and fifth round selection
is because of the making a trade of course For
rashichi heat in the first. Place AND i think there's
aw Fulos siahawk fans right now that are you, know
Wishing seattle had a, selection BUT i think that they're
very satisfied with the results of those two draft picks
being traded In New orleans for.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Sheet well that's also while we're sitting here right, now
because you never, know we talked about it, Earlier corbyn
with The, Robb i'll that you chime in on. This
WE i, mean they've got twelve picks next. Year they
got a lot of draft capital to work. With If
schneider does get a little bit of an itch sometime
in the next couple hours before round six and he
wants to do something around four or, five he's got

(32:50):
some draft capital work with and paying forward a little.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Bit it's looking more like that's going to be a
long shot to me though at this. Point, yeah it's
just it's just not a good depth.

Speaker 4 (32:59):
Draft SO i just don't know unless somebody like Denied
Dennis sutton just keeps.

Speaker 3 (33:05):
Falling AND i think at some point you gotta be,
like do we.

Speaker 4 (33:07):
Pick the phone up and you'll get ourselves a big,
bodied athletic edge rusher, that, oh by the, way had
eight and a half sacks each the last two years
in The Big. Ten you, know is that a guy
that you go up and get at some? Point but
you know the, tape he doesn't showcase the athleticism that
you sow at the, Combine AND i think that is
the biggest question, mark like why he's that, athletic but

(33:29):
why AM i not seeing it consistently on the tape
and the dude's physical AND i don't know why he's still.

Speaker 2 (33:36):
Alive is there a medical?

Speaker 4 (33:37):
Concern anytime a guy falls at this, point you gotta
wonder if there was something that cropped up.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
On medical robs.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
You the best edge still on the, board certainly among.
THEM i, mean he's probably the most productive of the
edge rushers who are still. Remaining and then he does,
have as you Mentioned, KORBA i mean that the phenomenal
athletic profile in terms of his combine. Performance he can
signed With Penn state as a five star. RECRUITS i
know in conversations with scouts about him that he kind

(34:04):
of carries himself a little bit, differently a little bit
of maybe high and, mighty kind of thinks that he's all, that,
uh you, know and so maybe that's not gonna be
a fit for every club out. There there were some
that felt like he was maybe a little bit overrated
and kind of turn it on and. OFF i personally
like and thought that he should have been a top
one hundred. Section SO i like Corbra i'm a little
surprised that he's still.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Available all, Right let's let's look ahead a little. Bit
let's assume they just keep six and six those two
picks in the sixth, Round, ROB i gotta think they're
looking at at offensive line and edge right at that,
point who knows what's gonna be. Left It's i'm not
GONNA i lean you on you a. LOT i won't
lean on you to tell me what's gonna happen in
two and a half, rounds necessarily because.

Speaker 4 (34:44):
Trying to project, this especially with tight ends that were
like undrafted priority players getting picked.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
In the second round change things a little. Bit but
we do get to that is the need right? Now
right those two positions offensive line and, edge, WELL.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
I think that the ARE i think again the numbers
of cornerbacks suggest that maybe they might go that. Way
also as far as the corners that or excuse, me
the guards that are. AVAILABLE i think That Jalen farmer
From kentucky is an interesting schematic. Fit he is very
athletic and he also has that the physicality that you're looking.
For he's another one that some have client questioned how

(35:23):
how easily is he. Coached he had some kind of
pushback with some folks that that may bother some. People
Boa stevens From iowa is another one That corbyn AND
i have talked about a, lot just because of the
athletic ability and you, know he's kind of the opposite
of A Jalen, farmer and that At Kirk ferentz coach
program At, iowa they consistently churn out prospects and you

(35:43):
know that are you know Nflready essentially The seahawks went
to that pool a year ago with With Mason.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
Richmond, yeah Both STEVENS i think is a great fit
to this. Point And Fernando, carmona junior From arkansas's other
Player i'm gonna throw out there THAT i thought might
go On day. Two former tackle that moved inside and
if you Watch Mike washington junior, tape you can't help
but Watch Fernando. Carmona the guy's really athletic from that
tackle background and coachable Senior bowl guy that could make

(36:13):
some sense if he's still. THERE i think he goes
here in these first two rounds in the, strap but
in this day, three but if he's, available could be a.

Speaker 3 (36:21):
Guy that makes.

Speaker 4 (36:21):
Sense wyoming has got a player THAT i really like
as well that could be a six to seventh target
And i'm forgetting his.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
Name why AM i forgetting. TALKED i remember his, Nickname Vanilla.
Gorilla yeah, yeah so that's the one that The corbyn's
referring to.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
There all, right let's do, this let's take a, break
we'll come. Back Corna Stick. RUND i think it's always
important to keep an eye on what your neighbors are
doing when you're. Playing and arguably the best division of,
football which would be THE Nfc. West, uh the second
best team in the in THE nfl last year was
probably the Rams by like a whisker and right there
with the forty nine. Ers we'll talk about what they've
done the draft so. Far also what has happened. Today Caden.
Barnett there you. Go that's A Vanilla. Gorilla that's The

(37:01):
Vanilla grella. Nfilm all, right well we'll come. Back we'll
check in when talk about what the rest of THE
Nfc west is doing. Again Jonah coleman selected by The broncos.
Day that's the most interesting note so far as far
as us here, Locally Corbyn smith with, myself The infnesse
And rob Rang stick around nine three point THREE. Kterfm all,
right we're back in The Virginia Mason Athletic Center. Internet

(37:24):
Rob rang and we're joined By Corbin, Smith Animal City
spectrum Dot. Com round four is. Underway jama, McCoy the
Injured Tennessee. Corner we talked about a lot the first
couple of. Days went number one in the fourth round
on hundred Verst Sol roles of The Las Vegas. Raiders as.
Well Jonah, Coleman washington running, back went number eight in

(37:44):
the fourth round to The Denver. Broncos in addition to,
that another name that would be familiar with football, Fans Kid,
Club nick the quarterback From. Clemson, oh how The mighty have.
Fallen at one, point thought to be a sure first
round pick a couple of years, ago and more tape
people saw more. Games he played the. Worst god for.
Him he's a fourth round pick and he's going to
The jets Of New. York so that's getting caught up anything,

(38:05):
Else rob jump out from the fourth round so, far.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
And that's the biggest one as you talked. About you,
know we're gonna be discussing some of The seahawks divisional
opponents here and they've made a couple of interesting selections
here in the beginning of the fourth round as. Well
i'll start off with The Arizona cardinals with the player
that the corbun AND i have talked a lot. About The.
Cardinals with the fourth selection of the fourth, round Took Caleb,

(38:30):
proctor a defensive tackle From Southeastern. Louisiana one of our
very first and best small school. Prospects but he has the,
quickness the lateral agility to be a real penetrator for
a defense that needed to get a little bit better
on the defensive. Line one of my favorite. Players he
might be my second favorite pick they've made in this
draft for. Him so he watched the tape AGAINST lsu

(38:53):
because if anybody's wondering about comp, COMPETITION lsu could not
keep him out of the backfield and that, game, OBVIOUSLY
lsu still dominated the, contest but he by himself put
on his show and he could play some big end
as well with his.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
Athleticism all, right let's talk about The San francisco furin.
As we'll start. There their first pick was not until
the second round, yesterday thirty third. Overall they took Former
Washington state And mississippi wide receiver To Jean's. Stripling with
their first, Pick Romelo, height an edge rusher From Texas
tech with a third round. Pick also in the third,
Round Kaylen, black the running back From indiana WHO i

(39:29):
Know Rob white quite a bit as. Well and then
today here in the fourth, Round Grayson, hulton a defensive
tackle From. Oklahoma Rob let's talk about the forty Nine
ers draft so.

Speaker 3 (39:38):
Far, YEAH i like. IT i don't love. IT i
mean it's. Stripling to, me was surprising to go to
number thirty three, Overall BUT i like the. PLAYER i
mean he, is you, know six to, two he's two
hundred and ten, pounds he runs in the four. Threes
he's he's been productive everywhere he. Went he started off
At Washington, State Oh, cooog's he went To Oklahoma, state
then he goes To Old miss of, course and the

(40:00):
these are very different types of, offenses and yet everywhere
he went he was very, productive was productive as a
true freshman For Washington. State so, AGAIN i like the.
TRAITS i love the fact that he is a physical run.
Blocker at the same, time number thirty three overall feels
a little bit. Rich romello height is a terrific edge
rusher From Texas. Tech, again it feels a little bit.

(40:22):
Rich at number seventy, Overall Caylen blocker talked about him
before running. Back the eye was just stunned when he
wasn't invited to the. Combine it does feel Like San
fransco has so many good backs already that that surprised
me a little. Bit And grace And, halton we just
talked About Cavin, proctor the defensive tackle that went to
The Arizona. Cardinals the same thing here With, halton and he's,
undersize but he's, very very quick and he can be

(40:44):
a penetrator when you consider the rest of the forty
nine ers, defense similar to what we've been talking about
with jedari On price and But clark and how they're
being implemented or integrated into a system that has all
kinds of. Playmakers grace And halton has a chance to
be a splashy player for the forty nine ers consider
all the talent they have around.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
It what do you.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
THINK i think it's a lackluster.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Draft that's my opinion.

Speaker 5 (41:07):
HERE i just stribbling to.

Speaker 3 (41:09):
Me was a late day too early day three. Player
there's drops in his.

Speaker 5 (41:14):
History he's got the blocking ability, though so it's a
fit For San.

Speaker 3 (41:18):
FRANCISCO i just think it was way too early to pick.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Him they like the physical receiver that can block on the. Edge,
yeah and, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:23):
Kaylen black is a good.

Speaker 4 (41:25):
PLAYER i PERSONALLY i Preferred Roman hemby of the Two indiana.
Backs rob AND i are a little different in that.
REGARD i Think hemby would have been pretty interesting in that.
Offense But Kaylon black has got burst and playmaking ability as.
Well that's probably my favorite pick that they've. Made halton
would be the second, favorite just because of his pass rushing.

Speaker 5 (41:43):
Upside but. HEIGHT i think.

Speaker 3 (41:47):
Probably a little bit too much height in terms of
where he.

Speaker 5 (41:49):
Was picked in this draft in my.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
OPINION i, mean the forty nine ers are get interesting
because they went from the twenty seventh pick to the thirtieth,
pick traded, down and then traded all the way out
of that first round to get what they ended up.
With so and they ended up with just, actually what
was all said and, done they only ended up with
one more pick than they went into the draft. With
so it was a kind of an interesting dynamic On day,
one especially with What San francisco was. DOING i they're to,

(42:13):
me they're one of the most Intriguing DRAFT a teams.
EVER i, mean you look at some of their picks
over the, years and they've had some absolute, disasters and
yet at the same, time look at that, team they're
good every damn, Year like it's just.

Speaker 4 (42:24):
Crazy their track record the last three or four years
is not good Though Johina lynch has had. Trouble Uh
and it's crazy that with that that even all the
injuries they've, had that's a testament To Kyle shanahan's coaching
ability that they have been able to withstand that when
a lot of times it's been like free agent signings
that were kind of cast off guys that they've come

(42:45):
in and been really good players rather than drafted players.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Coming in and being effective for.

Speaker 2 (42:50):
Them at some, point that corp is going to start
TO i mean they are starting to age. Out they
Design Trent williams a two year. Extension, obviously you, know
you see the problems That kittle's having injury. Wise you
always have to wonder about the durability Of christian, McCaffrey you,
KNOW i, mean that's and you, know the wide receiver
position has been a little bit of an issue for.
Them they went out in The ayuk situation ends up
blowing up in their. Face Pierce all when healthy has been, okay,

(43:14):
Right i'd, say, okay.

Speaker 5 (43:15):
He hasn't been a first round guy.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
Though, right, yeah, Yeah so that so there you. Go. Okay,
uh The Los angeles rams Of, Inglewood california ladies and,
gentlemen let's, uh let's go down that. Road, Uh, Corbyn
i'll start with you because you're, snickering And i'm assuming
it's because of thirteen, Overall Ty, SIMPSON i.

Speaker 4 (43:34):
Understand the thought, PROCESS i really, Do but why why
are you doing? That you could just you could read
the facial expressions Of sean McVay in the press conference,
afterwards like maybe he signed off on, it But i'm
sure it was a reluctant sign off on because like
you had an opportunity to GET i, mean they drifted

(43:55):
a tight end. Later you could have Got Kenyan sadik
right there out Of, oregon the cutting number one tight.
End could you imagine adding him to that. Offense or
you could have Got Makay lemon to add to your receiving.
Corps you could have drafted a number of offensive. LINEMEN
i mean they got a few spots they could have
upgraded in that. Regard, oh by the, Way Ruben Bain
junior was, available you put him With Jared.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Verst rob AND i were sitting there over those two,
seats sitting across from. Us we, Were rob AND i are, like,
man if they Take Ruben, bain that is not gonna
be fun to go Against Rubin bain Verse fisk that. Group,
no that would be no.

Speaker 4 (44:25):
Fun if they were picking at like twenty five or,
something THEN i would have been a lot more understanding
because you probably wouldn't have.

Speaker 5 (44:31):
Had a shot at some of these.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
Guys but like you had a couple guys that were
top ten caliber players in this draft class that were
sitting right there for. You If i'm a veteran player
there on that team that was this close to getting
to the Super.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
Bowl, Again i'm ticked.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
OFF i am like you could have added another piece
to help us win, now and instead you just drafted
somebody that's probably not gonna play for two or three years.

Speaker 2 (44:54):
Minimum, Rob do you think what do you think is
going Through Matthew stafford's mind?

Speaker 3 (44:59):
Retirement, KNOW i was doing one of those those sleep
mattress uh you know commercials or, something you know a
Brace uh you. KNOW I i JUST i have to
agree with Everything corbyn just said. Here it just feels
like that they are planning for the future rather than
attacking this draft right. Now and uh for a team
that you, know The Super bowl is going to be

(45:21):
played At Sofi stadium next, YEAR i really thought that
they were would would seize this opportunity to try, to,
uh you, know to make A Super bowl. Run and you,
KNOW i look at whether it be the Quarterback Tys,
simpson the tight End Max claire who is their second round,
selection or the offensive Tackle Keegan trost Who Keegan tross
might be able to move. Inside either, WAY i don't

(45:41):
see a sure fire rookie starter of this. Bunch. Now
obviously The rams are very talented and so it would
be difficult to crack the starting. Lineup BUT i thought
that their linebacker play a year ago with deficient that to,
me this is one of that's one of the strengths
of this draft class to not get a linebacker uh
so far and to you, know be drafting basically just

(46:02):
adding to positions of already their, strengths like a, quarterback
like a tight. End he's you, Know Max claire is
the sixth tight end now on their. Roster sixteen personnel
is in. Vogue you, KNOW i mean last year they
selected you, Know Tanner ferguson was you know right there
with last. Year royal is like the very first tight
ends that were, selected and so to kind of go

(46:25):
back and do it all over again with another tight,
end it just doesn't make an awful lot of sense to.
Me to, me what it suggests is that less need
and And sean McVay are basically kind of not necessarily
as much in lockstep as WHAT i think that is
here in The Virginia Mason Athletics center between the general
manager and head, coach.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
Well Max, claire the tight end going you know at
sixty first, overall if you wanted a tight, end let's go.
Back sidik was sitting a kid From, oregon like if
you really wanted to go down that, road and that's
such like corbyan joking the sixteen, personnel but like like
we saw What Colby parkinson's looked like a far better
player since he went. There like that's a part of
the McVeigh. OFFENSE i, understand we could you, could you

(47:02):
could sell that, one. Right Ty simpson was probably rob
going to be available later in the, draft right unless
someone snuck up and got him at thirty one or thirty. Two,
WELL i.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
Think that there is A cardinals were the team that
potentially was going to be doing, that but they, had you,
know their next SELECTION i think was like a twenty
seven or, something and obviously they could have traded up
to get. Him but there was some talk early on
that when Ty simpson was perceived as likely to go
to second round and people were, saying, wow you turned
down reportedly six million dollars by The university Of miami

(47:35):
to go into THE, nfl there was some talk that
it was The rams who had, said Ty, simpson you
should enter this. Draft you are a first round, player
and so maybe there was you, know some hurt feelings,
there like if this guy starts to, drop then our opinion,
is you, know is out there publicly and that we
don't want anybody to think that we're going to you,

(47:56):
know kind of kick the can and leave this, player you,
know hanging out. There so let's prove that we do
feel this way and let's just draft him. Here to,
me IT'S i just think that it's a questionable decision
by by a franchise that had such an opportunity here
presented to you then.

Speaker 2 (48:11):
All, right that's the voice Of rob Rang our Guy
Corbin smith here as well as we are in day
three of THE Nfl. Draft we're midway through round number.
Four anything happened that jumps at? Us we haven't hit
on yet in the fourth. Round guys that we've had
a few more players. Go Jalen, farmer by the, way did.
Go we just talked about him a moment, ago the
guard From. Kentucky he went To, colts went to The.

(48:31):
Colts let's see what ELSE i Think Elijah, surrott that's
a good Pick. Indiana we talked about him a little bit,
TOO i think in the pre draft lead Up Rob
so he goes to The ravens with the last. Pick
The bucks are on the clock where that would take
us almost? Midway, Well John schnyder's, Here how are you are? You?

(48:52):
Hey are? You are you busy? Today we're all? Right see?
It how you?

Speaker 5 (48:57):
Doing John?

Speaker 2 (48:58):
Schneider John schnyders walk by High, WELL i think we
know our. Answer if they're gonna do anything right? Now
do you think that or or.

Speaker 3 (49:08):
There's a smoke screen in? There the trades are Even, YEAH.

Speaker 2 (49:11):
I think IT'S i think it's safe to say that
that nothing's going to happen in the immediate future here
in the fourth round with The. Seahawks do you know how.

Speaker 5 (49:17):
Cool this guy?

Speaker 7 (49:18):
IS i was walking in this morning on my phone
and my dad was on the phone and, everything and
he was walking in right behind me And john AND
i have a joke where brothers don't shake. Hands brothers
got a hug because we both Like Tommy, boy and uh,
yeah he goes and SAYS i to my dad on
the speaker. Phone that's how Cool John schneider. Is he is,

(49:39):
also you know how after the first round we saw,
him he almost seemed a little disappointed and, distressed not
doing his cartwheels as. Usual today fresh as the day

Speaker 5 (50:13):
Shot that makes it look like it's.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
SOLIDIFIED i think we'll see you in round. Six the.

Speaker 5 (50:22):
Auto shop is opening a few hours.

Speaker 2 (50:24):
Later he's got one of his area scouts in there
with the eraser for the dry erase, board just taking
names off the big, board and he'll once we get
to round, six he'll worry about what's left up, there.
Apparently So i'm not sure how many gms just amble
through the wherever the media is gathered around THE nfl
like that looks at.

Speaker 5 (50:42):
US i don't know That i've ever seen him do.

Speaker 4 (50:44):
