It's time to the Fantasy Points podcast brought to you by FantasyPoint.com. Top level fantasy football and NFL betting analysis from every perspective and angle, from numbers to the film room, with a single goal to help you score more fantasy points. Whoa, welcome in to the inaugural episode of On the Clock. I'm your host Brett Whitefield, and my guest today is my partner in crime, Christopher Wecht. Chris, how's it going? It's good. You know, when you, when you, when Brett Foll Whitefield asks you to hop on a podcast with you to talk about draft stuff, you, you, you make it work and you show up and you come hang out and help draft with him. I think we could give the,

the listeners a peek behind the curtain. So what it actually happened was, I was supposed to do this one by myself, but I have never done a podcast by myself. And so after three or four miserable takes, I just said, you know what? I think for episode one, I need to bring on a special guest. So none other than Chris himself is joining me, which is exciting because, you know, we kind of, we're pretty much in each other's orbit all day long every day. So why not just do it? We have these talks all the time. So why not just do it on a podcast? Exactly. Right. All right. So I'll leave some groundwork for how this podcast is going to work moving forward. But it's a draft podcast. It's a daily draft podcast, which means you're going to get me five days

a week all the way until the draft. I'm going to have a lot of really cool guests on, guys in the industry, you know, guys that do draft stuff for a living. It's going to be pretty excellent. We're going to talk prospects. It's like today, for example, we're going to be breaking down three prospects specifically.

We're going to talk about team-specific scenarios. We're going to be talking about mock drafts. I know Daniel Jeremiah just dropped mock draft 2.0, so we will get into that a little bit today too. But it's going to be shorter form. If you guys are fans of TikTok, my other podcast, And you're coming over from that. This will be a little bit shorter winded than that.

We're looking to be about 20 to 30 minutes a day of just draft rich content. With that said, let me give you an insight into how I view the draft. So for about the last eight years, I've been scoring between 150 to 250 prospects a year using a numeric scoring system that I developed. The scoring system is a weighted score that takes into account everything from like production to traits. So I've kind of outlined all of these traits I look for in each position. I score players based on how well they display those traits, how often they display those traits. I have an intangible score, an athletic score, and all of that kind of, it's a weighted score that goes into a zero to 100 scale. And I produce these draft grades for guys.

And it's cross-positional. So when you stack up a draft board, you can literally stack up, you know, my top rated player all the way to my last rated player. And it's worked pretty well over the years. I've been kind of fine-tuning each year and make a few adjustments based on things I missed or things that did well. And yeah, we've had good results so far, but this is the first year. We'll be out in the public and forward-facing. And this podcast is pretty much the starting point for that. Yeah, for I'm sure as many of you are also football fans, the draft is one of the biggest events of the year in the football, especially in the off-season, but even, you know, through the season.

I've always loved the draft. I've come to love it much more since I've gotten to know Brett over the years and hearing talk about his process and whatnot. And that's the thing you'll take away from this podcast more than anything is just hearing somebody that's been refining their process over many years and hearing how they talk about prospects. It'll give you, you know, when you're watching, you know, whatever college football game next year on a Saturday, you might hear Brett drop some terms and whatnot that you now will start to recognize and just give you a better feel of how to think about. guys coming out in the draft on your favorite team or your fantasy teams, whatever it is. It's just, yeah, hearing somebody that's been refining their process for years and has success on hitting on guys, just will teach you more than you'll learn from anything else when it comes to NFL draft prospects.

Yeah, I appreciate that, man. And in conjunction with this podcast, I'm going to be doing the draft guide at fantasy points this year, which is going to be over 150 profiles. we're going every position. One thing I do that a lot of guys in the industry don't is I watch all the film. I don't do three game samples. I don't do five game samples.

I don't do seven game samples. I do all samples. And some three play scouting, right? And some three play scouting. So, you know, I don't say that to shoot my own horn, but what I'm trying to say is I'm very diligent what I do. And I really like to track a player's progress throughout their college career. It's really important to me to see that growth and that development.

Yeah, so let's, should we get started? Actually, Chris, before we get started, a word from our sponsor. Underdog Fantasy Football, as you know, if you're listening to this because you're into the draft, you're probably aware that best ball leagues have started up on Underdog. 2023 drafts are now live. You can get into a draft for and win a price pool of up to a million dollars. it's actually insane. And they're already doing it right now.

So I guarantee you if you are in here grinding prospects with me, you would have a great time on underdog doing best ball drafts. If you deposit $100 today, that deposit will get matched if you use the code, Fantasy Points. And that's F-A-N-T-A-S-Y-P-T-S. Fantasy Points is the industry leader in bestball tournaments, and there's not a better way to get into the game than right now. with the first time deposit of $100, which will get matched if you use our code, fantasy points.

All right. Feels good to pay the bills, Chris. Yeah. Yes, it does. All right, so Jemir Gibbs. This is a guy I've been loving talking about. I think I did Hansen's show last week live, his Sirius XM show. I've done a couple other pods talking Jamm, so I figure why not start with this pod talking about Jamar Gibbs?

this dude is here's the issue I'm having with the running back class in general Chris is it's very cluttered yes that's an understatement and so what I'm looking for you know my scoring system is my scoring system that's not going to change but what ends up happening

is you get like there's like 13 guys with similar scores and it's really hard to separate and one thing I appreciate about Gibbs's game is he does have that X factor that separates him from the rest We all know Bijon Robinson's kind of in his own tier of prospect. That's fine.

But who's that next guy? And I've identified Gibbs as that next guy, in my opinion. And the X factor he brings to the game is his weapon in the past game. Yeah, he's definitely got great passing numbers. He had like a 14% target share in 2022, which was like seventh most in all of college football last year. For running backs specifically? For running backs, yes, yes, for running backs. It's very high for a college running back.

Yes, very, very good. My question with Gibbs, and I'm curious, as somebody, so I'm more of a numbers guy. I'm looking at what numbers they put up production-wise in their college careers, particularly their final years. Gibbs was not the workhorse, at least on the ground game, that both Najee Harris and Brian Robinson were when they were at Alabama. So what on the film is standing out to you that doesn't have you worry,

that maybe Alabama didn't think he was this workhorse back. It's, well, it's a size thing, really. I mean, he's 200 pounds, you know. That's his listed playing weight. So there's a chance he's a little under that. I hope Gibbs doesn't make the cardinal mistake of trying to bulk before the combine to show teams he's a little thicker. I'd rather him just go there and put up freaky numbers all over the place

because that's really what he is. So, yeah, it's just a size thing. And that concern remains true in the NFL. I mean, you, I mean, shoot, how many, Bell cow 200-pound running backs are there? None. None. Right. So it's it's a matter of like how big of a role can he get at that size. So I know you know you fantasy listeners, fantasy driven listeners rather like you guys are you love those Belcow running back, especially if you're going to be investing high picks, whether it's season long or dynasty. Yeah, just right off the top. Gibbs probably won't ever be that. There might be games of course where he gets a high volume workload. But. really you're going to be going for that efficiency. I think ideally he's, you know, he gets like a workload similar to Austin Echler. That's the name I was thinking of.

Yeah. Or Tony Pollard, you know, they're probably similar in size, similar in skill set, actually, too. There's a lot of overlap with Pollard and Gibbs' game. But yeah, I mean, Belcow probably not on the table for him, but that doesn't mean he can't be a very productive fantasy player. And he's definitely going to make a team better with what he can do in the past game. Yeah, that's why I was curious what you, if you thought. he can make elevate a team not we know running backs are extremely dependent on their offenses in general but there is a few mcalfrey eckler even that can elevate their teams in a certain way and

does he fall into that bucket right when you get into like a skill summary for gibbs too you start to start to look at the things he does really well one of those things is his burst and acceleration it's i mean it's freaky it's not quite sean tucker level which is a guy will get to another pod but it's insane. And when he's in the open field, he does such a good job of altering his tempo to set defenders up, to hit the switch. So a lot of times you'll see him slow,

slow his feet way down to cause that defender to slow down with Gibbs knowing in the back of his mind that when I get on the horse, this defender's got no chance now to match my foot speed. So what he does, though, is he reduces tackling angles like really, really well. He doesn't take a lot of clean hits. So even though he's 200 pounds,

like this is a guy, he's going to have, I think, good longevity and avoid injury because he's not taking a lot of brutal hits. You know, speed in general typically does that, but Gibbs kind of understands angles and how to erode those angles really, really well with his speed. And on top of that, he's very elusive. So this is a guy who has moves to avoid getting hit as well. So it's not just a matter of being faster than the other guy. It's a matter of like, hey, at the drop of a hat, he can string together multiple moves and avoid, you know, really, really thick contact. ideally though Chris like maybe don't put him in a situation where he's having to carry the ball in the A gaps you know 15 times a game like that might be bad for him because those guys are a lot bigger than him so but man if he gets into the right system a little bit more spread offense like he'd be great on the chiefs I know they're probably not going to do that again with the high investment into a running back I know everyone in the fantasy world wants them to do that but they probably won't but he'd be he'd be phenomenal there

And any team that's going to get him out on the edge and get him in space and, you know, spread defenses out. So there's not so much chaos in the middle. Like he's really going to thrive in those situations. Yep. As per usual, landing spot for running back is going to matter for Gibbs like it does for pretty much every running back. Yes. Yeah, I mean, other than that, the only real concern I have with Gibbs is in pass protection. He's pretty under-deven.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, sometimes small guys work. Like I remember Theo Riddick played for the lines for many years. Like he was a smaller guy, but he had requisite foot speed. And he was really good at, you know, redirecting on incoming defenders from the quarterback. Just using that foot speed to kind of, he's not absorbing a ton of contact, but just kind of pushing them around the edge where Gibbs kind of has more of like a, he's,

he's really eager to get out into his route. So he has a lot of check and releases in the Alabama offense. and he wants to release faster than he than he should be. So a lot of times he's late processing, whether it's a delayed blitz or a stunt coming through the middle, he's late processing that information, which winds up,

it leads to him lunging a lot. Instead of moving his feet and using that quickness to match the footwork of a defender, he ends up like lunging at them. The problem with lunging is once you're beat, there's no chance for recovery. You know, because you've literally lunged,

you've taken yourself out of the play by lunging. So he's going to have to clean, like, I know, you fantasy guys too are really interested in how does this guy translate day one well for season long that's a concern for me because i don't know that he'll get on the field right away yeah and the past game is where he as you kind of started talking about him is where he's most effective so if he's can't pass block that's that might be an issue exactly now he has a ton of time to clean it up right he's got he's going to have rookie minicamps he's going to have um you know off season all the offseason

programs training camp preseason football's back so like we'll have plenty of chances to clean it up But it is worth noting that that is a concern of mine. The size and the pass protection stuff is really my only main concerns with him, though. I mean, he's a pretty clean profile there than that. Yeah, that's fair. Yeah. There's been a lot of debate about the next guy we're going to talk about, and that's Jalen Hyatt. A lot of it seems like...

Receiver from Tennessee. Yeah, wide receiver from Tennessee. This is a speed demon-type prospect. We've seen a lot of these guys coming to the league lately, and I would say typically, there's a lot of discourse about them, but because of some recent misses, people are a little more skittish, I would say. But man,

the discourse on Hyatt is wild. Like, there are legitimate, I would say, experts in the field saying, like, how is this guy being taught as a first round pick? He's barely a third round pick,

or he's a day three guy or whatever, like crazy stuff. And then we've seen the complete other end of the spectrum, like Lance Zerline, basically saying, hey, if you don't have them in the first round, you're basically an idiot. That's what this guy brings to the table. So I err on the side of Lance when it comes to Hyatt.

Anytime you can add a player to your offense that fundamentally changes the way defenses have to play you, that's a win. I don't care how productive the guy is at the NFL level. Like if defenses are altering what they do and you're getting them away from the things that are good at, just to address one player, that's production. and that's really what I'm looking for. I know that's not the sexiest answer for fantasy players, but it's the truth.

And that's what Jaylon has brings to the table. So he's, I have a firm first round grade on him, and he's going to finish as my probably wide receiver three or four in this class. Yeah, he led the SEC in receiving yards per game, which, as most of you know, the SEC is probably the best college or conference in college football. That's no small feat.

He doesn't have, He had 31.8% of his team's receiving yard share, which is like 17th since 2019, not as high as like Devante Smith last year at Alabama, Elijah Moore with Old Miss. Even his fellow teammate, Cedric Tillman, actually put up a slightly higher number in 2021. But still like very good numbers. And as a deep threat, as some people are calling him a one-trick pony type guy, like doing, putting up numbers only doing one thing really well is still a very valuable thing. And I mean, Deshaun Jackson's made a career out of being fast.

And he still plays. He was still on an NFL roster this year. Some team, multiple teams are going to value his raw traits alone and then hope that he can develop into a functional piece of their offense as he grows in the NFL, for sure. Well, and the word you just use is key, and that's traits. and when you start to look at traits and build a perfect receiver, I mean, Hyatt has a lot of the traits you look for in a legitimate,

you know, Z receiver, downfield weapon. Like, he checks pretty much all those boxes, including, like, he's not just fast.

Like, he's explosive. He has good leaping ability. You see that on tape. He plays the ball in the air really, really well. Like, I don't know if it was Daniel Jeremiah,

but I heard somebody say he plays above the rim. which is so true. It's a great way of describing it. Like he looks like a wing basketball player going up for some highlight dunks when he's playing the ball in the air. He has the ability to contort his body in the air too. And he's not the biggest guy in the world. So he's not going to play through contact well.

But man, he's not just a guy where you need a quarterback to lead him downfield. You know, if you have a quarterback who's comfortable throwing to a spot, you know, against cover two or something fitting in that tight hole shot or these back shoulder throws, Hyatt's going to be really good on those plays as well. not to mention the fact that he is so freaking fast, Chris. Like this guy ran a 10-4-6-100-meter dash in high school, which is ridiculous. But he's so fast that if you can get the ball in his hands, anything can happen. He's not super elusive.

He's not going to juke guys out and make guys miss. But he's like Jalen Wadle level speed, Tyree Kill level speed, where there's not an angle that is safe. I mean, that's true. It doesn't matter how your safety is aligned. there's just not an angle that's safe when you're when you're trying to track Jaylon Hyatt with the ball in his hands. Yeah, I mean, my comp for him is Will Fuller. When I say that, what goes through your mind?

I mean, Will Fuller has fooled me into many seasons. But the injuries just really, you know, just eventually ruined Will Fuller's career. But yeah, when on the field, Will Fuller was a problem for opposing defenses. Even when the ball is not thrown his way, he's a problem for defenses. the speed just can't be under salt i mean hyped up enough it's it's so important in today's NFL and he's going to yeah he's going to give defenses nightmares one one like big difference between fuller and high too is hiatt actually has good hands yeah reliable hands terrible drop issues yeah so it's like hiatt is will fuller reincarnated with with prosthetic hands or something i don't

know, but he can catch the ball, which is great. So what are the downsides to Hyatt's potentially not, you know, falling into that John Ross trap? So two main, I would say, downside. I hate the John Ross comp, too. Not to, not to, like, aggressively combat you. But I've seen a lot of people saying John Ross. The issue I had with John Ross is that speed, that elite speed, didn't always show up on

on tape. I mean, it really didn't. There were moments, sure. But when he ran the 40 he ran and everyone freaked out, I was surprised. I was like, okay, he does not look like a 4-2, whatever guy on tape. Maybe 4-38, sure. Hyatt looks like the speed matches the hype. Every single play he's on the field.

There's never a play where you go watch him. You're like, yeah, I don't see the speed there. No, like it's every single play. So I really hate the Rosscom. But there's two main, I would say, down. sides with Hyatt. The main thing is the Tennessee offense set him up for absolute pinnacle of success with his skill set. They run a super high tempo max spread offense where they're lining up receivers. Sometimes they're doing bunches outside of the numbers and in college the numbers are really

tight to the sideline. So just imagine a bunch formation like on the sideline of the football field where you're you're hiding Hyatt behind an ex-receiver and behind another bigger slot player. and you're basically allowing him to get a free release with all that space to work with across the middle of the field or down the sideline, however the route combinations work out, that's the biggest downside to me because you can't do that in the NFL, no one's doing that in the NFL,

there's really no way to hide a player at that level. You can still hide guys and get them free releases, but to the degree of which Tennessee was doing it, it's just not the same. So my question is, in part of my process, is I constantly ask myself questions. So just because we don't see it on tape doesn't mean he can't do it, right?

It doesn't mean he doesn't have a good release game, doesn't mean he can't beat guys off the line of scrimmage. We just didn't really see him do that. So you have to ask yourself, what happens if guys get hands on him at the line of scrimmage? What happens if he doesn't have as much space to work with across the middle of the field? I still think there's a ton you can do with hype,

but that becomes a concern. That's a legitimate concern, too. I'm not going to discredit anybody saying that that's what they're concerned about. But I do think the skill, set that raw speed does it is the trump card and i would i would still bet on those traits over that negative um do you have any thoughts on that i know we've talked a little bit on take talk about the tennessee offense but no i i think you pretty much got it i did full disclosure i wanted to i didn't necessarily think he's the john ross comp but i wanted to make sure you

pointed out how the speed showed up on tape versus because that's everyone has said that he's the john ross like what if he's john ross again and yeah and yes it's very important to point out that Ross did not look nearly as fast as he ran at that 40 when he was in pads playing on the field. Yeah. Like I said, there were moments, but like it wasn't like, shoot, go put on Tennessee versus Alabama this year and watch what Jalen Hyatt did to the best defense in the country. Like, unbelievable stuff.

Yeah. He, he, he, whatever speed he ends up, what do you think he runs at the 40? I would say anywhere in the 4-2s. If he's having a, if he's having an off day, I think he'll be high 4-2s, 4-28, 4-2-9. if he's really feeling it. And that track is fast in Indy2. We do know that. Maybe he gets down in the 425s, 424, somewhere in that extra freaky zone.

Yeah. So when he runs whatever, 4-2, whatever, on the combine in about a week, go watch that Alabama game right after. And you'll see that that speed is there, whether he's in pads or not. Yeah. Absolutely. The only other real downside with height is he is small. six foot 175 pounds-ish

it's concerning to an extent but we have seen a recent track record of guys coming to the league that are undersized one of them being your guy DeVanta Smith yeah I was going to say that's not that's small but it's not too too at well small it's not uh yeah he can he can play at that that size

and be effective yep all right let's do let's do one more and then we are are going to get out of here. Actually, no, we're going to do one more. And then I did want to point out a couple things in DJ's mock that I think is crazy. So, but we're going to go tight end Luke Musgrave from Oregon State. Chris, do you know why I wanted to do Luke Musgrave? I believe I asked you which of these tight ends of this class has the best chance of being a generational talent. And you immediately not even hesitated said Luke Musgrave. Yes. Yeah, and that's

sure. I mean, I think Kincaid is a phenomenal player. I think Michael Maher is a phenomenal player. But when you're talking about physical traits and raw traits, holy crap, Musgrave has everything you want and a dominating tight end. I mean, he's massive, 65, almost 6'5, almost 6,6, 265 pounds. He's easily the most athletic tight end in this class, probably the most athletic tight end since Kyle Pitts. This guy's a freak of nature. And when you put on the tape, and then there's not a lot of it. And that's the, That's the big disconnect most people have when grading Musgrave is you do have to project him quite a bit. So Kincaid and Mahir did score higher for me in my scoring system, but the tape, you still see the glimpses of it, and it's phenomenal.

His ability to beat one-on-one coverage, whether it's a safety or a linebacker, he's just destroying them. It doesn't matter. He's athletic enough to do it. You're going to end up having to make weird decisions with putting your best cover corner on him if Musgrave develops into a more refined route runner. he's big and strong. So if you do decide to check him with, say, a bigger safety or a linebacker, well, he's probably bigger and stronger than him, too,

as well as faster than him. So there's really not a one-on-one matchup that I'm too scared of with Musgrave transitioning to the NFL. Now, we know most teams play zone these days, so that's fine. Musgrave annihilates the zone. His catch radius is massive. He's good at setting down his routes in holes and zone.

I don't have an issue there. The fact that he can beat man coverage is, easily as he has shown he can just makes him just super attractive to me. And he doesn't really have a super developed route tree yet either. This is him running a lot of crossing routes, you know, some different types of go balls and things of that nature. But, you know, once the NFL coach really gets hands on him, this guy's going to be even better than he is right now. And in the run game, I've seen a lot of people slandering Luke Musgrave saying he can't, he can't block. And I would like to know what tape they're watching. Like, I don't, I don't understand.

is he the most technically refined blocker in the world? No, but he blocks with an attitude. He's a finisher. He wants to get guys on the ground, and he has the frame to be excellent at it. And I think I said this in my senior ball write-up, Chris. Like, I don't typically comp college players to future Hall of Famers. And I'm not even saying I'm comping him, but when I watch Musgrave, I can't help but feel like I'm watching a young Rob Grunkowski. It's actually kind of disgusting. Yeah, I remember seeing him at the senior bowl, and you know, you see all the tight ends out there and they all are bigger guys in general and then Musgraves out there and just makes some of the other guy. Like, Will Mowardy now looks tiny compared to Luke Musgrave. Like he's giant and he moves so fast and so fluidly.

Yes, it's freaky. Like it doesn't look difficult for him. I distinctly remember seeing the Stanford wide receiver Elijah Higgins, who was like a bigger wide receiver. like looked like he was struggling to get in and out of breaks. It just wasn't fluid. And then Muzgrave, who was a tight end and bigger and probably not faster, but definitely fast, just like everything looks so easy for him. Like he doesn't look like he has to work to get his body in the positions he needs to get

it in to make plays. He's 35 pounds bigger too, not just bigger, 35 pounds bigger than Higgins. Yeah. And he looked that much more fluid. And I think he is faster. If you follow the GPS tracking data from Zebra Technologies, Musgrave was he would have been the fourth fastest receiver there in Mobile. Yeah, so there you go.

I mean, freaky, he's running near 21 miles an hour in the open field, which is, that translates to roughly a 4-440. I'm telling you right now, if 265 pounds runs 4-4 at the combine, the internet will break. He's going to, yeah, he's going to break all the speed scores out there. He's going to reset what the speed score is said. So the problem, like projecting him to, from like a fantasy standpoint though is like draft cap we know draft capital is everything right

so if two tight ends get drafted above him how skittish are people going to get with musgrave or there could even be three because Washington's a phenomenal player out of Georgia so I mean I guess that's concerning but not really for me I mean most tight ends don't get drafted in the first round so it's not a big deal for me at all but I would say draft capital is not as important to tight ends as it is to some of the other positions in terms of how quickly they can get on the field and stuff.

There's always a huge learning curve with tight ends in general. Yeah. In my in my mock 1.0, Chris, I put Musgrave on the Saints to pair with Joanne Johnson. And they had the field stretcher and a lava. I felt like I was a really unique pairing and I was really excited about it. What did you think about that? That's, yeah, that's interesting because it kind of gives them like two big slot guys that they could use. not that Musgrave has to play in the slaughter or even Joanne Johnson.

They both could line up as tight ends, but it gives them the ability to do so. And I mean, there isn't a team in the NFL that has enough defensive backs or coverage linebackers to match up with both of them and then also have a lave taking the top off your defense over and over again. So that would be a really interesting combo. Yeah, to me, like we talked about with Hyatt, when you're when you fundamentally are changing the way teams play you. that's a win.

Putting Musgrave and Johnson on the field together, I don't think there's a team in the NFL that has the personnel to match up with that. You're going to force them to play a lot of zone and you're going to be able to exploit that. I mean, it's a very attractive pairing to me. So it's the only real worry with him just that there isn't a lot of tape to go off of?

But the tape looks good when you're watching it. What is there? You find those high-end traits. Like not just, it's not that he's just doing, you know, showing these traits. that he's showing them at a very high level. And in the small tape you have, the frequency is pretty high as well. But yeah, I mean, because of the lack of tape, like you are projecting a lot.

That is obviously a concern. You have to be really convicted in your take on a guy to feel comfortable at that, which I am. But I understand he won't be for everybody because of the lack of production and the lack of, you know, consistent tape over four years. I mean, he really only played parts of two seasons over a four-year career. at Oregon State. So that is a concern. Other than that, though, I mean, it's really not much to,

not much to be worried about there. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Well, before we go, we have like two minutes before we got to go. I want to wrap up with Daniel Jeremiah's mock. One thing of note,

Jalen Carter, he has going first overall to the Bears. Yeah, that would be, I think that's the first time I've seen him, mocked first overall, at least in the start of official mock draft season, like post Super Bowl. Right. And I won't talk about a lot of mocks on this podcast because I think most mocks are fan theory or like my mock was what I would do if I was the gym.

So there's a lot of mocks like that happening. DJs, though, I specifically referenced because he is pretty plugged in with the NFL. And so he does things based on what he's hearing, which is nice. another big note here is he had Tyree Wilson, edge defender from Texas Tech, going ahead of Will Anderson Jr., the edge defender from Alabama. First time I've officially seen that.

I've heard people conjecturing that it would happen, but no one's actually put pen to paper and said that that's going to happen yet. So that is interesting. Another big note is he has Lucas Van Ness in the top 10 to the Falcons, edge defender from Iowa. This edge class is really, really good.

I mean, Van Ness is shooting up boards right now. It's kind of crazy the rise he's on. Bejohn Robinson to the Bucks at 19 without the official quarterback is a way to go. Yeah. That would be interesting. Yeah.

That would be, who, you Rashad White Stans would be very upset, myself included, but that would be wild. Two other notes really quick. The Lions taking Anthony Richardson in 18. I mean, as a Lions fan, that's a massive win. Richardson is my number two quarterback in this draft. I would be over the moon. Chris, we just talked this morning about what the Lions draft strategy should be.

You're 100% in on. It doesn't matter what you think of golf. You take a quarterback this year. Yeah. I tend to agree with that. I do think they'll try to extend golf at a reasonable rate if they can't, though. This is a great fallback. Holy crap.

We both said if they, I mean, if they did that pick at six, I'd be totally fine with that. So they're not going to have draft capital like this forever, especially with the way their team's getting better. Yep. The last major note is he has the Seattle Seahawks taking Jackson, Jackson Smith Najigba, wide receiver from Ohio State. I haven't considered that as a possibility when I was mocking.

I don't even think it crossed my mind once, but man, could you imagine Metcalf Lockett? JSN's kind of a Lockett replacement eventually. That's what I was thinking. But you'll get them on the field together for at least a year with Gino, who you're probably going to resign and pay some money to. Very attractive situation there. I love loading up at pass catchers.

That's what I would do if I was any team. They got to find out what they have in Gino. They got to figure out if it was a fluke and how much of a fluke. And so if that means adding another premier pass catcher, I'm all for it. All right. That is it. That does it for us. Thank you so much for listening.

I will be back tomorrow. I do have a guest line. up. He's a very good friend of mine and a very prevalent draft writer. We will see you guys tomorrow. Thank you so much for listening. Out.
