Falcons, I see you in the chat.
We do super chats at the end.
Yes, yes, let you know.
Promise we will get to all of them.
And Falcons, ATL, we promise we will get to yours as well.
Falcons ATL, $5 super chat.
Here it is.
There it is.
My falcons keeping me in misery.
That was the super chat that he wanted us to read.
That was the super chat that they were upset that we didn't get to.
I was expected like a three-part question.
A philosophical question.
Not by Falcons.
misery. That rules. I might print that super chat out and put it behind me. I love you guys.
To the opening bell of the NFL Stock Exchange podcast, Trevor Sikkim and Connor Rogers,
with you here in the middle of free agency. We're in the trenches, baby. Chaos all around us.
Chaos, contracts, coping. You're going to get it all here on this show. What we're going to do is
we're going to take some of the early moves that we've seen in free agency and talk about what that
means for the 2026 NFL draft because Connor, my goodness, man, we've already got some major shakeup.
We've already had trades.
We haven't even necessarily talked since the Kansas City Chiefs traded Trent McDuffie.
All right, there's a first round pick that changed hands.
The Max Crosby trade.
There's another first round pick to change hands.
But so many team needs have changed during the tampering period here on Monday, buddy.
The Jets made a ton of moves.
And I already know that you're like live with Sims like in the middle of the day.
So how you doing, my friend?
Were you able to pound an uncrustable before we got to this show?
Dude, you bet.
Absolutely.
Good, good, good, good.
Have one just defrosting, ready to roll, keep things moving, jump into this chair.
Can't wait to break down free agency with you because we are going to look at it also from that draft lens, like the true sickos we are.
You said coping at the top.
I am sorry for the end of the Mike Evans era.
It was a beautiful era.
Oh, oh, no.
Tyler!
Wow, he was ready.
We didn't plan that mean him.
Get it off the screen.
Get it off.
Didn't happen.
This is fake news.
This is fake news.
Get it off the screen.
For those of you who are audio-only listeners...
No, don't put the single cam on me.
For those of you who are audio-only listeners,
Tyler pulled up the PFF free agency tracker.
And right there, right in front of us,
is Mike Evan signs with the San Francisco 49ers.
A day I truly never thought would come.
Never thought it would happen.
But this is what Todd Bowles does to a man, unfortunately.
And I think that's where we are.
I've been there before.
I know you have.
I know you have.
It's tough to watch history repeat itself.
It is.
You know, the Titans, by the way,
what was it called when you get the shopping cart
and you run through the store
and a certain amount of time limit
and you have to stuff it with stuff?
What, guys grocery games?
No, I don't know if that's the one.
The chat will have my back,
but it feels like on food network?
That one?
No.
Like that show?
No, I forget what it was.
It might have been supermarket sweep.
That sounds right.
Yeah.
No, I don't know what this is.
It feels like Brian Dable and Robert Sala did that today.
With items they've owned before.
With the items that they have owned before.
They were like, oh, I used to love these cookies.
Throw them in there.
You got John Franklin Myers back with Sala, Cordell Flott and Wondell Robinson
and Daniel Bellinger back with Dable.
Yeah, they're got.
I saw a tweet.
I saw a tweet that was like, why don't we go after all the players that got us fired?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which obviously I hope they're a lot better.
for the Titans. We're to talk about the Titans,
or we're talking about the Bucks, we're talking about the Niners.
We're talking about so many teams because a lot of stuff changed here over the last
shoot a week, but like specifically the last six hours.
I think a ton has changed since the tampering window has a wait, are we calling it
the tampering window?
Didn't they change the name?
Oh, God.
Yeah, well, now you can have like FaceTime stirring it.
It was like the negotiation window that they have officially changed.
Well, because they do not like the word tampering.
we've gone soft. It's all gone soft. Yeah. Well, the tampering happens at the combine.
That's true. The negotiating window opens up today. Free agency starts Wednesday.
Yeah. Oh, people are saying that Tua to Atlanta is actually official now.
Okay. We thought that it was, we thought that it was going to happen because that was one of the first dominoes to fall, which is very interesting.
I feel like outside of the fact that they're left-handed, this one doesn't really make a ton of sense.
Tua and Penax just played the position completely differently.
Tua is somebody who is all like over the middle of the field
won't throw outside the numbers type of a quarterback
and Michael Pennix is only outside the numbers
never throws over the middle of the field as a quarterback.
So that one was just very funny to me.
It makes sense financially because you're getting Tua on a
right then minimum,
but that's kind of funny.
Maybe it's,
and you know how much I love Pennix,
but maybe it's a little hint at Stefanski,
you know,
kind of getting a different kind of quarterback for his offense.
So, I mean, I hope Mike comes back strong and develops into the quarterback he could be.
But it's always tough when you're a former first round pick that's hurt with a new regime and staff.
It's just an uphill battle out of the gate.
Not that Tua invokes fear into your job.
Who knows at this point, dude?
I know.
I know.
I know.
Quarterback is so, like, it's so much more fickle than you would think, even with the amount of money that they're giving these quarterbacks.
So obviously you guys can tell that we're off and running here on this show.
it's going to be a jam-pack show, mainly because it's going to be heavy chat-focused.
Yes.
For these shows, because we've got a show here on Monday,
and then we're going to have another show on Wednesday in the middle of the week.
It's heavy chat-focused.
So a lot of you will send in super chats,
and then we'll read them at the end of the show.
For the next two shows, that's not what we're doing.
We are reading the super chats in the shows.
We want to go back and forth with you guys.
We're freaking out and analyzing a lot of these moves as they are happening throughout the day.
So, Connor, you want to just read a handful of super chats that we have right now
to kind of get the show kicked off?
I do.
selfishly and I'll keep this real sweet because I don't want this to be about me but I feel like
this is the place to give a thank you. Uh, me and Kristen officially announced and you've known
Trevor that we are having a baby boy. Let's go baby. Early, early this summer. I'm, you know,
obviously beyond excited. I can't even explain how the incredible this news is for us as a family.
But I want to thank all of the addicts that commented on our post because not,
only was it very, very sweet.
It gave me and her, like,
some amazing laughs. Like, she's just
showing me new comments every single day.
The Legion of Womb was won
by Ryan.
Yeah, I mean, this was, like,
grade A level kind of response.
I want to find who said it,
but somebody said franchise
equals fixed and had, like,
55 likes.
It was an all-time one.
There was a meat fabric comment on there.
Oh, my gosh.
Uh, yeah, I mean...
The Legion of Woom?
Yeah, Book of Eli said,
Congrats, Connor.
He's already faster than Jerry Rice.
Yeah, he is.
I believe that.
I believe that immediately.
He hasn't even taken steps,
and he's better than a 5, 3, 640.
Yeah, I see some people already...
I see some people already doing it,
but nonstop, I'll be using the chat for,
uh, for fatherhood, for parenthood.
Um, dude, I just...
To the moon excited for you guys.
You already know that.
I've already said that to you, but, uh, man, I've just, uh,
So, so excited for you guys.
So happy for you guys.
I just can't wait.
Can't wait for you guys to start this new journey.
And obviously, a lot of the addicts are showing their support as well.
The Ws are flowing in the chat.
We appreciate you guys.
Had to give a thank you today because there's so many comments on Instagram that I, we were
really, really, it just gave us a lot of smiles through such an incredible time.
So I wanted to thank everybody here.
I don't want to once again, you know, take away from the free agency show.
So we'll keep it rolling.
but it's super super fun.
So let's jump into these super chats, man.
Yes, let's run through a handful of super chats.
And then we're going to get to some team-specific mock drafts.
We're going to talk about some big free agency signings.
A lot of guys go to and from some new draft strategy, all that kinds of stuff.
Tony Lee with the $5 super chat said, Trevor, it's going to be okay.
Hang in there.
It's not going to be okay.
I don't know what's tell you.
Vinny, $5 super chat.
Hey, guys, apologize if you've answered this already, but why isn't Mike Washington getting more hype?
I think he is after the combine.
Yeah, it's taking off now.
I think he'll be, you know, he's going to, he's going to,
to be a fantasy darling and that generates external or even more hype and yeah it's the train
has left the station but i get it veney it took a little while to get there for a six year college
player odd estimate said it already taller than trav meaning your son already taller than me
that's that's that's that's that's that's the day to do this to you i was going to say like have
i not have i not endured enough have i not been through enough today you are on the ground
and on estimate walked by you and put his hand down and then a roll
hold it back through his hair when you went to grab it for a handup.
Insane.
Absolutely.
Completely ridiculous.
Austin gave a $5 super chat.
Said first time super chatter here.
Appreciate you, Austin.
Thank you.
Chiefs taking downs and a falling McCoy because we as fans of other teams cannot have nice
thing.
So that goes into a little bit of the chiefs and sort of what's happened over the last
week with them trading Trent McDuffie, which holy cow man, you want to talk about a team
going all in.
The Los Angeles Rams are about his all.
in as it can possibly be, as it can possibly get with what they've done over the last week.
And then also retaining Cam Curl, signing Jalen Watson as well from the Kansas City Chiefs,
signing Trent McDuffie-Tway market setting cornerback deal over $30 million a year.
Crazy.
But in doing so, they traded number 29 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Now, what was it?
how the
safety from the chiefs
who just signed with the Bengals
Ryan Cook? Yes, yes. So like
now a safety is gone from
the chiefs as well.
They could absolutely double dip
at secondary. I think Dale Downs is absolutely
on the board for them now at number nine overall.
He might be a heavy favorite to be honest
now that they've signed Kenneth Walker
and like Jeremiah loves not in their plans
anymore. So I absolutely
think that they're eyeing downs if he makes it to them.
at number nine.
Yeah,
the Rams have all of a sudden
built a secondary
that's more expensive
than like half the team salaries
in baseball right now.
And I don't blame them.
They were all in on winning
the Super Bowl,
and that was something they had to do.
Mediocrity incarnate.
I didn't want to miss this one.
Trev,
we all know the bucks won't be bad enough
to get a blue chip prospect next year.
Who do you want at 12th overall in 2020?
I'm sad, man.
I feel like George Michael
from arrested development
walking all sad with his head down.
It is a bummer.
I'll do plenty of funny coping here.
on the show, but in all seriousness, like, Mike is a Mount Rushmore type of a player for the Buccaneers franchise.
He's also just, when I was covering the Buccaneers as a beat reporter, he was always very nice to me,
very welcoming.
And like, he was the star, man.
He was such a franchise star and everything that he's done for the Tampa Bay community.
He's just an unbelievable dude.
He deserves this chance to go after another ring.
The sad part is, as a Bucks fan, is that to me, I think that this decision very clearly less about the money because he signed for three years and $60 million, which was very matchable for the Buccaneers.
I think that he specifically doesn't believe in Todd Bowles, which I could fully understand.
But I also think that if he really thought super highly of Baker Mayfield, he's still in Tampa.
And I think that that his actions today speak pretty loudly of he does not really love the direction of where this team is going.
mostly with head coach,
but I think the Baker-Mayfield equation
is a little bit into this one as well.
So it's a bummer that Mike is not a buck in here anymore.
I felt as though he was going to be a buck wire-to-wire.
But I hope that the substation or whatever rumor is not true
and that he stays fully healthy and he gets another 1,000-yard season
this time with the San Francisco 49ers.
Who do I want the bucks to draft at 12th overall?
Well, in 2007.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it was like partially joking.
I don't know if they are. Hold on.
Cook, young man.
I'm going to look at the consensus board.
I could not answer this question.
What do we have here?
Leonard Moore?
Yeah, I mean, if he makes it 12,
yeah.
Sick.
I know.
Colin Simmons?
Colin Simmons?
The edge russia from Texas?
Good with that one, too.
Those are about the only names that I recognize outside of quarterbacks,
which they're not going to be picking high enough for a quarterback.
Oh, you draft Cam Coleman to replace Mike Evans.
All right, now I'm sad again.
All right.
Oh, no.
Okay, what free agency direction do we want to go here?
Who do you want to talk about first?
Well, we're going to get into some drafts, right?
Oh, wait.
There was a super chat about the Jets.
Yeah, Tony Lee gave us a $10 super chat.
Said, Connor, how are we feeling about their after day one so far?
Jets should be better against the run with their additions.
Need to fill out that guard spot before the draft.
Odds the Jets trade for BTG.
I think you mean BTJ, the classic super check.
Brian Howard.
Okay.
Gotcha.
All right.
So for the first part,
what I expect them to do is go more volume than stars, in quotes.
And that's what they did.
They got bigger and tougher in the front seven and got Mika Fitzpatrick because they just,
it's such a funny way to describe it,
but they just made adult moves today, Trevor.
Like watching the Jets for most of the season, last year,
especially the second half,
you'd watch them in the first quarter and they were so uncompetitive on defense.
they'd average like giving up two touchdowns in the first quarter the easiest drives you'll ever see
and the personnel for the most part did not match really what Glenn, Glenn's style in Detroit.
So yeah, like you look at a sigh, right, into Mario Davis and Minka.
These are just floor raising moves.
You're going to have to draft your stars.
You need a star at two.
You're going to need a borderline star at 16 and, you know, a good player at 33 and 44.
So what they did today was kind of rounded out a defense that was uncompetent.
last year where Tony's right.
It's about stopping the run
and being able at some point with the guys
you draft to create some turnovers,
which you literally didn't have an interception last year.
As for BTJ,
this is really, really interesting because it's so obvious
Jacksonville is just completely soured on the player
where you would think a lot of teams are calling on him.
Right.
I don't know what the pro.
I would think it's a day two pick at this point,
which is such a bad return on investment
for Jacksonville with him.
But, you know, in the Jets still,
we don't know who their quarterback is going to be.
It sounds like a lot of rumors around Gino Smith again,
which is kind of funny.
But they need...
Yeah, they're running out of options, man.
I like...
I obviously was very high on BTJ as a prospect,
and he was great as a rookie.
He was disappointing last year.
You just wonder,
like, are you going to play Adonai Mitchell in that role next year?
I know BTJ's better.
I know that.
But what kind of asset are you surrendering for BTJ in a role
that you might like?
like what Adonai could do if you draft the number two.
I'm not saying to not get him because you have Adonai Mitchell.
That's not the point.
It's just going to come down to the cost and what it would run up to.
If he gets traded, I feel like he's going to get traded for a third.
Like that's where my mind goes.
And the Jets don't have a third.
So it would be pick 44 for them.
Right, right.
But I feel like if a team's giving up a second round pick for him,
then they kind of have to more serious.
ask the question, okay, hold on, why is this player available?
That's exactly right. And so, in reality, Brian Thomas Jr. shouldn't be getting traded for a third.
But if he's not a part of the Jags plans, which to me would be like, it's a red flag.
I don't think you can sit here and just go, oh, he's not a scheme fit for Liam Cohen.
No.
Bullshit.
Right.
Like, he's just a really good wide receiver.
If the Jags are trading him, it's because they probably don't believe in the player.
So at that point, what is a guy whose team is already giving up on him going for?
Yeah.
I don't think it's a second rounder.
I think if he gets dealt, it's for a third.
And if it's for a third, then that's kind of buyer beware anyway.
So the BTJ situation is very, very interesting to me for that reason.
Yeah, it's interesting for a lot of teams, not just the Jets.
You know, you have the Giants out there looking for a number two wide receiver right now
after losing Juan Dale.
There's plenty of teams that would be in that market.
but thank you, Tony.
And just a solid day for the Jets.
Not spectacular, but good business from a volume perspective.
Mr. Jack gave us $2.
So the bear signing linebacker and safety definitely points to them drafting a defensive lineman.
So it wasn't just.
Kobe Bryant.
But it was it was Kobe Bryant, Devin Bush.
That's right.
They re-signed to Marco Jackson.
But they also signed Neville Gallimore, which I had somebody on social media asked me,
like does the Neville Gallimore signing
keep them from taking a defensive lineman
in the first round? No,
not at all because Neville Gallamore
specifically isn't attacking like one gapping
defensive tackle and they need to get better in run
defense 1,000 percent.
So, no, I don't think that that
changes things there.
Selancy with the $10 super chat
said Trevor's Matthew McConaughey from Interstellar
banging on the window while screaming
no to Mike Evans.
That's actually me just
rewatching the third
and 28 that they gave up in that game where Mike walked off the field screaming third and
28.
I mean, it was over from that point on once, once ownership got involved and didn't want to move
on from Todd Bowles.
Catalyst owls.
Trem, the faithful send their regards.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Jack Mack.
Take care of our boy.
69.11.
Oh, yeah.
Who else Trevoring.
They Connor at work right now.
Don't you like when I accidentally go into like real newsy white guy voice?
Yeah, no, it's great.
No, I mean, it's like the pre-combine episode where you're just, you're reading.
And then you're just like, yeah, who's getting?
Dong and then just nowhere.
It's like somewhere deep in me that I can't stop myself when I don't know what I'm about to read.
Fear immediately sets in.
Let's see.
Bork Borkington said the 49ers signed the Mike Evans of Mike Evans.
Yeah, unfortunately they did actually sign the Mike Evans of Mike Evans.
They got the Mike Evans.
They got the Mike Evans of Mike Evans.
Mike Evans kind of does remind me of like a Mike Evans
version of Mike Evans.
So I do see the vision there.
Jace gave us a $20 super chat.
Said if I have to hear one more tweet of Jacksonville trading BTJ,
I'm going to crash out.
Well, impeccable timing.
Steven said the chiefs are just taking defensive end corner and safety in the draft.
I agree.
I think that it's one of those positions.
In fact, all right, you weren't fired up.
Let's do it.
Thank you, Stephen Steiner.
The Steiner Recliner.
Thank you for getting us to a mock draft, finally.
Let's do it.
Let's do it.
Tyler, let's pull out the PFF mock draft simulator,
and let's run through a Chiefs three-round mock draft here.
Let's see.
Let's go, yeah, we'll go Chiefs, three rounds,
because they got the extra pick.
So let's run through it.
Let's send it to nine here.
We're going to be doing this throughout this entire show.
We'll talk about a lot of free agents.
We'll read a lot of your super chats,
but then when we want to actually explain how this changes things,
I think we're going to go to the mock draft for that.
So the mock head, the Jets is taking Jeremiah Love at number two.
That's kind of funny.
I don't think that that's going to happen.
But I do think that Jeremiah Love,
there's a good chance you could potentially go to the Tennessee Titans,
number four, maybe even the New York Giants, number five.
I think that's kind of on the table as well.
I will say, nice piece of business by the chiefs getting Kaira Tanga from New England.
It is indeed.
That's like a sneaky one where I was like,
They're being careful and cautious
of how much money they dump into the defense,
but that's the right kind of move.
I agree. I definitely agree.
Do you think Downs the pick here?
If the board falls this way,
do you think Downs the pick?
Yeah, he should be.
I think so too, because what's there?
They have, oh, who's the guy
that they drafted two years ago?
So they have Jaden Hicks,
who I'll full hand up transparency here.
When I was doing, I think it was the PFF mock draft,
I talked about how I wasn't sure if they would be super interested in Downs because I thought they really liked Jaden Hicks.
Because I was thinking about him after his rookie season, how they were super excited about him.
They were really excited to draft him.
He was able to play a lot as a rookie.
He looked like he was an ascending star at safety.
And then last year, I didn't realize this.
He couldn't get on the field.
Which is wild.
They started taking him off the field.
So, yeah, I think the Downs is absolutely here within their plans because they're secondary.
is it's
Chamari Connor
Christian Fulton
Noel Williams
who I think is going to play
outside for them
Chris Roland Wallace
Mike Edwards is a free agent
Jaden Hicks
that's about it
I take downs here
yeah it's downs
Baines off the board
he's the other guy
I'm watching for them
I think it's down
I think we run this card in
okay all right
so let's go downs
and then let's see
who's available at 29
so defense like
What's their other pick?
Tyler, can you get your picks?
Oh, oh, it's a 40 and 74.
Sorry, you didn't do that.
So what are you thinking here?
Man.
You know what's a weird one for me with them?
I do like Colton Hood a lot,
especially for this team.
A weird one for me with them is
they've invested plenty in wide receiver over the years,
but I don't love their,
I don't like their wide receiver room.
Well, you shouldn't.
Right, it's not like a hot take.
I'm the first person ever to say that.
Unless you love Jalen Royals,
I like Jaylon.
I do.
I like Jaylon Rose.
I think he could be
number three for you in the future.
Yeah,
but he was a fifth round pick.
Right.
Yeah.
They're not banking on him.
Where I'm sitting here and I'm like,
Omar Cooper with Pat Mahomes is very enticing.
But I do agree with you,
Trevor.
We came into this thing like,
how do we rebuild this defense?
And Colton Hood is right there.
And it's spags.
Colton Hood could play man.
Yeah.
That's big.
Like that's why the Rams just paid their guys all this money.
They think they can be an improvement at corner
and man coverage for them.
Colton Hood was excellent for Tennessee and man coverage.
Some people are talking about Peter Woods.
I'm struggling with Peter Woods right now.
And we'll redo the Detackle group pretty soon.
We didn't do it.
We don't have to redo.
We haven't done it yet.
We did it this summer.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I thought you were talking about like the early ranking series like in December.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it's been a while considering how much we talk about those guys.
I have been extremely under one.
with this defensive tackle class.
Yeah, and we had, I remember like over summer.
Yeah.
Well, Woods looked like a top 10 pick this summer.
That's the problem.
Yeah.
And now we're in the world of like, is Peter Woods going in the first round?
I'm going to be honest.
Like, I'd take Christian Miller if they're thinking D-Line.
Yes.
Because I will probably have him ranked higher.
I will, I will, I do too.
I don't hate Christian Miller.
Christian Miller is, we said it on the last show, right?
He is the least talked about good player in this draft.
He really feels like it.
I'm not sure Georgia fans, no, but outside of them, it's like, everyone's like that.
Whatever.
No, so, okay, they, they just signed Tonga, who you mentioned was a really good signing for them.
Let's go, let's go, Colton Hood.
Yeah, Colton Hood, he's a good fit for them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So that brings us to 40.
What do we got, 40?
Chris and Miller.
Good.
Let's see the regular board.
Let's see the regular board.
Here, what do we have?
I don't mind Jeremy Bernard, but I'd take him at, I don't know if I'd take him at 40.
On this team, well, it also depends.
Like, if they have worries about Rashid Rice, then yes, that's going to be a conversation.
Oh, hold on, no.
What about offensive tackle?
Anybody left to tackle?
Or did we already hit the big run?
They're gone.
Yeah, we did.
They're all gone.
Damn.
Damn.
Leo Chanel is a free agent.
They still have Drew Tranquil and Nick Bolton.
Man, do we just go Jeremy Bernard?
Yeah.
Okay.
Let's go Jeremy Bernard.
Like, kind of rounds out the mock draft.
Dude, I think he's a target monster for them.
Andy Reid would know exactly how to play him inside and outside for them.
I kind of like Max Claire.
Lucas Chiefs Lightning.
I see you in the chat and I respect your Gabe Accus love.
Oh.
It's just you and I.
We're carrying that flag.
You and I.
Just me.
He was he wanted the last week.
Nobody likes Gabeakis.
Just me and Chiefs Lightning.
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
You're right.
You're right.
By the way, got to say it.
We don't have to expand on it.
Lightning Sabres,
best regular season hockey game I've seen in years.
I thought it was the worst hockey game that I've ever seen.
Oh, my God.
I actually, I'm just bummed that Vassie didn't play.
Well, because it was, I need a playoff series between those teams like I need oxygen.
It'll, it'll, it'll lapse.
absolutely kill me. They really will.
Oh, Kieran Crawford, I think is underrated
as in this edge rush class.
I think we probably go D-line here, though.
Yeah, what do we have left from the
D-tackle group? Big Citrus.
Big Citrus, don't hate it.
But I would rather, what about edge? What about edge rushers?
Well, let's see, you brought up Crawford.
Man, they went, huh?
They did go.
Quite the run.
Quite the run.
Well, Gardner, Minchew to the Cardinals.
somebody said yeah i wonder if they're going to trade jacobi now
hmm
they had to do something else though
yeah
they already have omar norman lot
man this is kind of tough for them
maybe just doing big citrus makes the most sense
big citrus is like kind of the
you know easy
because like Derek Nottie
Mike Pannell
Jerry Tiller those guys are all free agents
yeah let's go big citrus
let's take big citrus here
All right. Big Citrus, there's the first, wow, look at that A pick for Big Citrus.
Whoa, yeah, you'd love to see that.
Love to see that. Love to see that.
Colton Hood, Hey, will not be tolerated.
There's some, uh, there's a Chief's three-round mock job for you guys.
Caleb Downs at number nine, Colton Hood at number 29, Jeremy Bernard at 40.
And then Big Citrus at 74.
All right.
Pretty good. I like it. Yeah.
Let's see.
Oh, it's going to get back to Super Chat.
I think I clicked.
I think I clicked a button.
I was supposed to.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
Sorry, first time host a pod.
Benjamin, super chat.
Longtime viewer.
First time super chatter.
Over under 20 and a half sacks between Jeffrey Simmons,
John Frankl Meyer in 2026.
I'll take the under.
I was going to say, I'll take the under as well.
But they're going to be really, really good together in solid scheme.
JFM playing that big end spot.
Sala likes and Simmons getting to attack a little more.
And if the Titans aren't playing down two touchdowns every game,
a little bit more pass rush opportunity.
Like, they don't have to hit the over for this to be really,
really, really well this year.
So, TD Gaming.
As an A&M fan and a Bucks fan,
there's no bigger heartbreak than watching the best offensive piece
in Buccaneers history walk away, truly an indictment on the Buccaneers
organization.
Unfortunately, I do agree with you.
Wiscoe, $20 Super Chat.
Congratulations, Connor, on your impending roster edition.
Thank you.
Oh, nice.
We'll see how rookie camp goes.
Only 18 seasons before they hit free agency.
It's a journey and a challenging one at that.
Be kind of yourself.
I can guarantee that you'll be doing better than you think.
Thank you, Wiscoe.
That is extremely thoughtful, and I can't get enough of stuff like that.
Yeah, really appreciate that.
Appreciate you guys.
We got two Raiders super chats back to back,
and then I'd love to jump into a Raiders mock draft off of this.
Griff, $5 Super Chat,
the price of the brick is going up.
Tyler Linderbom's agent to Las Vegas,
which is absolutely what happened.
You want to talk about resetting the market, man.
Brad Spilberger had a tweet.
Hold on, let me go find this.
Brad Spielberg's tweet said,
A true market resetter.
Previous record for a center's average per year,
percentage of the salary cap was 7.4%.
Litterbaum is an 8.96.
That's a crazy jump.
Yeah.
He took the short term to cash in again at age 28.
That is crazy.
Yeah.
This was a masterclass by him and his agent.
I know there's a lot of stuff out there leading up to free agency that like the communication between the Ravens and the agent.
At the end of the day, man, take out of done in such a powerhouse way.
And Linderbom's going to, he's going to cash in again in three years.
Charter $5 Super Chat said the Raiders are a Braden Smith and Vega-Awanay away from going from the worst to potentially a top-five offensive line.
Miller, Jackson-Powers-Johnson, Linderbaum, O'Wane Smith.
God bless John SpyTech.
Let's fire back up the PFF mock draft simulator.
Let's run through a Raiders mock draft here.
We know who they're taking at number one overall, which, by the way, an underrated part of Tyler Lindelbaum going to the Raiders isn't just the fact that he makes their offensive line better.
you get a true veteran and one of the best centers in the NFL now in constant communication
with Fernando Mendoza.
I mean, that is some veteran rookie chemistry that is honestly probably why the price went up
and why the Raiders were willing to outbid everyone.
John Spitech already talked about how he didn't love the idea of throwing Fernando
Mendoza to the wolves.
They'll probably add a veteran at some point for him to start right away.
So Linderbom, sorry, so Mendoza can just kind of like
learn behind him. But everything that SpyTech is doing, he is trying to do the right way with a
rookie quarterback at number one overall. And I love what he's doing. I love what he's doing.
I said, you know, we get ahead of ourselves at times of how good Mendoza was this year.
And credit to him for what he's been able to turn himself into, a legit number one pick.
But look at what got him there. Indiana's coaching staff, their ability to run the ball and set up
play action for him. And getting Pat Coogan in there.
who played a ton of football for Notre Dame
was an experienced guard and center
and Mendoza having a guy like that to lean on.
The Raiders are wisely looking at the infrastructure of Indiana
and trying to NFL replicate it
to give Mendoza a little bit of comfort as a rookie.
So with that, I agree.
Let's make them better.
Let's do it. Let's make it better.
It's fired up here.
We know who's going number one.
Don't need to spend too much time on that.
But we got pick one, we got 14, we got 36,
and we got 67 now.
three-round mock draft for the Las Vegas Raiders.
Fernando Mendoza, obviously we will have him going number one.
And then at 14.
Ah, see, we think about Vega-O-Wane.
The Super Chat shouted out Vega-O-Wane.
Is he gone?
No, but the player who is at number one on the board right now
is the player that I would go with even over Vega-O-Wan.
Oh, but he is gone, though.
Oh, shoot, he is.
He is going on to the Miami Dolphins.
I didn't even realize that.
a lot of this the last couple days
because I don't know if the
Jets are going to bring back AVT or not
and a lot of Jets fans understandably
Vega Yuanay is amazing
they're like you just take him at 16 and it's fine
I don't disagree because he's awesome
I'm just not living in this world that he's
going at 16 anymore
the NFL is obsessed with this guy
I think he could no he could
but you're not betting the house
on it you know what I mean sure
so anyways you just made the point
Spencer Fano is sitting right there
Yeah, Spencer Fano in specifically as well, in Clint Kubiak scheme, running a lot of mid and outside zone stuff.
I mean, the way that Spencer Fano moves to me is special.
And sure, he could play tackle for you at some point, but I love him as a guard.
I mean, if you have an interior offensive line of Jackson Powers Johnson, Tyler Linderbaum, and Spencer Fano,
you have Colton Miller at one tackle spot, and then, you know, you're kind of figuring out the other tackle spot.
I mean, DJ Glaze could potentially, I mean, still play tackle for them, right?
Yeah.
Think he's the one who's left?
Yeah, yeah, he's still there.
And then you also have, you do have Charles Grant and Caleb Rogers that you could hopefully
continue to develop as like good depth options.
Right, you don't want to write those guys off all the way.
I, I, I, I, this is the, this is the ideal scenario for me with one and 14.
Fernandez at one, Spencer Fano at 14.
I like that even more than I like Vega Wane at 14.
Well, let's take five.
Bono.
Okay.
All right.
It's now 36.
Man, it's hard not to take Concepcion here.
So they did just sign Jalen Naylor.
Yep.
So that factors into it a little bit.
No, it certainly does.
Trey Tucker, Jack Bess,
Jalen Naylor.
They still have Deontay Thornton.
Sorry, Dante Thornton.
I always say that wrong.
Brock Bowers, obviously.
They still have Michael Mayer,
Aschie Genty.
They signed Quitty Pay,
So that happened while we were on the show, so we didn't.
Yeah, pretty big money.
I think he got 16 a year.
Ooh, did he?
Nice deal for him.
Yeah, I'll check that out.
But I mean, listen, the Raiders, they need a lot of things.
It's no problem with spending that on Quitty Pay.
They need a lot.
They re-signed Eric Stokes.
They traded for Toronto Johnson to play in the nickel, which I like.
So who's the best player available for them now on the board?
I mean, it's, I get it because, like, you're looking at Nailer and thinking, like,
how did they kind of have this?
guy already, this spot already filled, but it's hard not to take a Concepcion, but you also
do you need more help up front still? Do you take that, do you take both the Utah guys?
Just play Caleb Lomu tackle, Ed Wright tackle? No, you probably, yeah, no, I don't think so.
No, you probably don't do that. Um, I think to me, this comes down to Concepcion,
Miller, Christian Miller, honestly. Jacob,
Rodriguez would be on the board for me as well.
They have nothing at linebacker.
They quite literally have nothing.
They have Tommy Eichenberg and Cody Lindenberg.
I hope that they get involved in this second wave because there's good linebackers left in the market.
Nicobey Dean or Devin Lloyd would be so ideal.
Leo Chanel, still out there, right?
Yeah, he's a different kind of linebacker, though.
They need everything, man.
You want to go with Concepcion?
I feel like you would talk to.
that one up. I would take Concepcion. Okay. He can be the Omar Cooper for Mendoza.
Okay. In the spot in terms of stylistically. Yeah, people are saying, people in the chat are saying,
well, Casey would make it a pretty small receiver room. It's true. I know, but what are the, what are the,
you know, I'm not taking Malachi Fields here. You know, they could draft, they could draft Pregnon and
play Fano at tackle. But I, I think if you drafted Fonon
know at 14, the idea is that he's probably playing on the interior for you. What do you think?
Yeah. I agree. I don't think they're just going to make the line from scratch. Like, this is good
progress. I think I would take Christian Miller over Casey here. I mean, I'll probably have Miller
ranked a little higher. Will you? So then I think we should take Miller. I'm very, very high on him.
He's so smart, man. That was what stood out to me a ton as I was watching. I was watching.
watching all the defensive tackles.
The eyes, the technique, the hand usage.
He's just so consistent.
I don't think he'll ever be a great pass rusher for you,
but I think he will be such a good nose tackle option for you
to hold the line of scrimmage.
I think that, and they definitely need that for sure.
And maybe we get a discount on wide receiver later.
Okay, let's take Christian Miller here then.
Go Christian Miller.
67.
Who's left at wide receiver?
Serrat, ironically.
connection between those two.
Actually, honestly, this is where I would take Fields if you need size at receiver.
Malachi Fields?
Yeah.
Malachi Fields at 67 has felt normal for a while.
Malachi Fields in the top 35 did not.
I still think I like Surat more than I like Fields.
Well, you have the also obvious chemistry built in.
That's true.
That is very true with him.
matters for the Raiders specifically.
But I will say
Jack Besh would kind of do a lot
of the Elijah Surratt stuff.
You know?
Yeah, you're right. No, absolutely.
That's, and I like
Bash better as a prospect than
Surratt. I know it wasn't a great rookie year,
but you got to call it what it is.
All right, let's take Fields. You won't take Fields?
Let's take Fields. All right, let's take Fields.
So there we go.
Fernando Medoza.
there's a new look Raiders mock.
Still got an A, even though the Fields pick was a little bit lower,
just because I've got Fields rated a little bit lower.
The rare Mike McCarthy curve?
I know.
Yeah.
Look at that.
Two A pluses there with Fernando Mendoza and Spencer Fano,
A minus for Christian Miller and then Malachi Fields getting the C.
Still got an A overall, though.
I think it's a pretty strong Raiders draft for three rounds.
Hey, by the way, folks,
before we get into more Free Agency Madison,
how it has changed the draft,
we are on a campaign right now.
a mission, if you will, to get to 75,000 subs before the draft.
We would love for you guys.
If you're watching the show, we've got, we know we're going to have a lot of new eyeballs
with how we are analyzing the free agency moves and the NFL draft.
We know we're going to have a lot of new people.
And if you've enjoyed this show at all whatsoever,
we would love for you to be a part of the addicts.
It's a really special community.
And we're talking NFL draft 365 here on this channel.
So if you are not subscribed, or even if you're an audio-only listener and you're not
subscribe and want to create an account to really help us out here.
We would love that from you guys.
We appreciate everybody who's subscribed so far.
But yeah, that's our goal here is to try to get to 75,000 subs by the time the draft
comes around.
So we believe in you guys.
We believe that you can help us and make the addict 75K strong.
So we appreciate you guys already.
All right.
What's more super chats?
Yeah, we have as many super chats.
Holy smokes.
We got a lot of super chats.
I think the rest of the.
the show is going to be super chats and a few mok sprinkles.
Super chats and some mock drafts here.
I lost my play.
Oh, I found my place.
Wait, this is, this is a topical one.
Hold on.
Start bench cut.
Draft day.
The first day of free agency and kickoff weekend.
Like, is this, if this is serious, obviously, oh, okay, man, I am, my brain is so broken.
I thought he meant the movie draft day.
The movie draft day.
Watching the movie draft day.
I was like, this can't be serious.
Watching the movie first day of free agency,
starring Jake Gyllenhall, of course.
And then kickoff weekend, meaning Premier League soccer.
Think about where you are.
The start is obviously draft day.
Yes.
Draft day to me is the most,
I think draft day is 50 times more exciting than the Super Bowl.
100%.
It's not even remotely.
Could not agree more.
is in a league of its own. It's literally the founding father of this, what the show is run on.
100%. I'd start draft day.
The game, the games, the games don't even matter.
Yeah, I would never play the games.
But still drafted everybody for on paper teams.
I've never watched a game.
Yeah.
That's why kickoff weekend is useless.
I'm just kidding.
This is interesting.
I think kickoff weekend is the bench because there's nothing like that one o'clock
slate of so much happening.
and you've just missed real football so much.
But the first hour of free agency
is just total dopamine.
Like, I'm just inhaling all of the good vibes.
I'm going to be honest with you, man.
Starting draft day, benching first day of free agency.
I don't blame you.
And I'm cutting kickoff weekend.
Just because the regular, like kickoff weekend is special.
Don't get me wrong.
But you then have the whole season to play out.
The craziness of the draft and free agency is so,
it's so fast and heavy.
I don't know.
I love it.
I don't think it's a crazy answer at all.
Great question.
Absolutely love it.
I'll get us back on our order here.
Tom said,
Jets getting pro football players on defense,
and I approve.
If the smoke is real with BTJ,
what type trade compensation would do it for the Jets?
Trevor and I said they don't have a third.
So maybe it's like a pick swap with 44.
All right.
Ryan, oh man,
old producer Ryan.
Did Trevor wash his hands?
Oh, Ryan.
Good to see Ryan.
Hell yeah.
Shout out to the OG producer.
Ryan Richardson said, did Trevor wash his hands?
Absolutely not.
After that Mike Evans trade, I'm just rebelling against everything in the world, including hygiene.
Ryan, hope you well, my friend.
Appreciate you.
Appreciate you dropping back in the chat and hanging out with this a little bit.
Non-stop W emojis for Ryan.
For Ryan the King.
Brady said, said, subchamps.
long time listener, long time super chatter.
We appreciate you, Brady.
Tua took a visit to Magic City, and it's definitely not just the winks.
P.S., congrats to Papa Rogers.
Thank you, Brady.
That's amazing.
You never failed to disappoint.
Alex, can't wait for the baby to be six pounds, seven ounces.
There it is.
I'd look at the doctor.
You're kidding me.
Well done.
Did you see the, I think it was the cold open?
on the last episode of the mailbag where somebody was calling you out for wanting to react to.
Who was it?
Jeremy Bernard who said, I don't know, six or seven, and your face just like,
you were just cold staring at him, but you could tell you wanted to break.
Like the true professional.
Yeah.
Odd estimate, your adversary technically, Trevor.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah.
Crushing a violent chili cheese fries while listening to this after a tequila taste.
thing. Good Lord. Someone toss me in on crust. Odd estimate you are like this peak living on a
Monday. It's peak living but I also I pray for your plumber. Yeah, I pray. Yeah. Because that might be a
tough scene. It does an absolute disaster crushing a violent chili cheese fries. Tequila taste thing
and polishing it off with an uncrustable, washing it down with an uncrustable. Yeah, that's pretty
incredible. Libertarian Sasquot. Shout out
2026
a Jets Cardinals
tank off for the number one overall
pick. Yeah, I mean, the Cardinals, I thought
were for sure getting Malik Willis.
Yeah, that they're going to be
that's tough. How do you feel about
Malik Willis in Miami?
I think it's odd.
I just don't know what Miami's doing
this year. That's why. Yeah, I
agree. It felt like when they started to
offload salaries, they were
just going to totally strip it down.
you know, trading Minka, cutting Tua.
Right.
It's like, okay, let's just be really, really bad this year.
They obviously like Malik Willis because the regime was with him in Green Bay.
The thing I like about it is a lot, even if he's not great this year, he can be a bridge
quarterback for who they draft in 2027.
So that aspect I really, really like about it.
And the speed dynamic between him, A Chain, and Waddle is really, really fun.
But Miami is they do find themselves in a little bit of a weird place right now.
It's just, I also don't really know.
why Malik didn't pick Arizona.
Like, if Arizona was competitive, you have Trey McBride, Michael Wilson, Marvin Harrison, Jr.,
the offensive lines, a couple of additions away from being pretty good.
Tala Algier, James Connor, it's not the best running back room, but, like, still,
I'm just very, very surprised because he's very clearly picking a Miami team that is not going to be good.
next year or the year after.
Arizona.
I'm just kind of confused at how he got on to Miami.
I don't hate the move,
but I'm just kind of confused at how we got to that point.
I'd love to know what Arizona actually offered him
because they have a reputation,
cash flow-wise, of being very cheap.
So maybe this was not a true decision for him to make.
Harry said, how big of a super chat will it take for the subs
to name the kid?
Maybe number two.
Kid one, I don't think there's a number.
I'll have to like actually work on my wife for a while, the convince her of that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's too late for this one.
Yeah, yeah.
That's why his name is Addict Rogers.
I thought it was Accus.
Because you're, because you're such a big fan.
I am.
You got to read the next one.
That was free.
Tony.
Oh, did I skip one or no?
No, this is Tony.
$100 super chat.
Tony, $100 super chat.
One of the most generous viewers we have.
You are the absolute man.
congrats Connor will he be raised the Jets fan i have gotten this question a lot he is undeniably going to be a
Mets and rangers fan i was not like you know that the same way with the jets i was a little bit of me
was like i'll make some rules of who you can't root for but you might actually get to choose
your own adventure and believe it or not it was Kristen that said to me the other night she's like
you're not serious, right?
And I was like, I don't know.
It's, you know, and she's like, it is such a big part of your life,
both from a work and personal perspective.
She was like, he's being a Jets fan.
And she wasn't raised a Jets fan or anything like that.
So like, I was like, damn, all right, mom stepped up and made the, which is nice.
Because now he can never be like, dad, why did you do this to me?
He can do that with the Mets and the Rangers and the Knicks, but he can never do it.
He can go, mom, why did you do it?
do this to me. So I got
out of the blame game here and yes.
Good. The long answer, as of
very, very recently, he will be a
Jets fan. Sully gave us a $2
Super Chat said, talk about
Connor McPounder, congrats to
BW.
Yeah, I pitched that name.
Didn't land.
Didn't land. We're still in beta.
Big Bird, $5 super
chat. As a Bengals fan, couldn't
be happier. Boy, and Mafet was the edge rusher that I
wanted the most. Cook will finally be able to stabilize the safety room. I agree. Those are two
underrated really nice moves for Cincinnati. I like both of those moves for Cincinnati
really raising, I think, the floor of the safety play and raising the ceiling of what you have
from your edge rusher. So both of those moves, I really like a lot from the Cincinnati Bengals.
On top of resigning Dalton Reisner, I think that that was the right move. So Bengals are never
super loud in free agency, but I do think that the moves that they made were pretty impactful
here. We got a $2 super chat. Name them Brady Cook. Probably not. Probably not.
Uh, S day. Thank you for the $5 super chat said it's for the baby's first uncrustable.
There it is.
Very, very kind.
Nice, nice.
She's had Joey, uncrustable right out of the womb.
Boy, does this show like have not have the strongest brand of all time?
Yeah, truly.
It's just every bit all the time.
I love you guys.
Chief Librarian.
Sponsor the show.
Uncrustable.
Uncrustable marketing manager.
We know you're watching.
We know you're one of the soon-to-be 75K addicts of subscribers to the show.
Yes, that's the mission.
So if you're watching right now, that's yet another reminder.
subscribe. Chief Librarian mayonnaise. Who are Tennessee giants taking at number four and the New York
Ravens taking at number five? Treb, do you want to do a round one mock draft where we just
pick for the Giants and Ravens? I mean, geez, Giants and Ravens, the Titans and Giants? Or is that just,
am I going to? No, we can do that. I think that makes sense. Okay. So I know we have so many super
chats to get through. So we'll just do the first round. We're not going to be able to get to all the super
chats. We're just, we're going to try to get to as much water as.
many as we possibly can.
But so the Giants, well, actually, let's talk about the Titans first because they're the
first team that they're going to pick here in this mock draft.
So we'll do one for the Titans and then one for the Giants.
Or no, yeah, we could just do it at the same time.
For the Titans, they signed Wondale Robinson to a lot of money.
Hope it's worth it.
They traded for Germain Johnson.
They traded for Trondre Sweep.
They signed John Franklin Myers.
They signed Cordof a lot.
So a lot of moves here for the Tennessee Titans, which to me feels like it opens up
world where they could be taking Jeremiah Love at number four.
You beat me to it, partner.
I, if I had to make a predictive pick right now,
so they traded for Germain Johnson and they added John Franklin Myers.
We've literally seen this front.
And let's call Jeffrey Simmons Quinn and Williams, right?
Like we've seen Robert Sala literally build his front this exact way, exact way.
Now, they could take an edge rusher and it wouldn't even be a shock at all.
but it's not you don't have to
it's also a deep edge class
what if you feel like you can get a more pass rush first player
later on
I'm taking Jeremiah love here
well let's see if he's on the board
because the Jets took him at number two in the last mock draft
after we did so
will your Jets absolutely derail this again
to enter the draft
there it is not
that was very realistic
Brandon Mendoza
Arbell Reis
right now
Rub of Maine
I agree, man.
I think
well, the only thing
that holds me back from this
is the fact
that they could still draft Sunny Styles.
Sure.
Like I still think that the Titans,
I think that it's between Sunny Styles
and Jeremiah Love at this point for them.
And then if they take love,
it's easy to tell yourself
the Giants are going to take styles.
As while we were recording this,
Germain Illuminaur
went back to the Giants.
Giants.
Oh, that's huge.
Yeah, that's been a huge caveat.
The Giants get a Luminar back.
There's their right tackle.
Yeah.
So I think this is love and styles back to back.
Okay.
All right.
Let's take Jeremiah, my love, and then Sony Stiles.
Well, hold on.
Didn't the Giants just sign?
Tremaine Edmonds.
Tremian Edmins.
But they cut Okareke.
O'Kareke.
O'K or K.
Where did that come from?
I mean, it's an intimidating last name.
O'K.
I say it like every other day.
No, and Micah McFadden?
They're thin in the middle of the defense right now.
Yeah, damn, they are really thin.
Which is one body.
They have Darius Muisal.
But, yeah, I mean, you could absolutely still draft sunny styles here.
Yeah.
And I don't think, especially with them bring it back,
germane aluminum.
Yeah, let's do Sunny Styles.
I think Sunny Style still makes the most sense for them here.
Oh, right.
Okay, so now what are we thinking for the Titans?
Oh, we're going to do all three rounds.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Buckle up, buddy.
Well, I got to stick to what I just said.
Let's look at the edge rushers.
For the Titans?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
I wonder if Malachi Lawrence is getting this type of hype at this point.
That is exactly what Sala would look for, you know?
Like, are you just the freaky,
athlete.
Because, I mean, they have Oluafemi Odejo, but they didn't draft him.
No.
And Femi was always more of a developmental kind of a dude anyways.
Remember, he was like an offball linebacker for most of his career.
And then he played edge rusher.
And it's like, all right, well, now he's going into the NFL as an edge rusher.
He's got really great tools.
He's a good athlete, but he's still really figuring it out.
Again, that was the last regime that drafted him in the second.
round. That was not this group. So I think that they could still like Femmy as a depth player,
but not want to have him start for you in all situations. So I feel like Malachi Lawrence is more of a
somebody said that they did draft him. No, Robert Sala just. Oh, okay. Borgonzi did. Okay, okay. But I
think that the, I think the coaching staff totally changes that. Yeah. And this is a staff between
Sala and Aaron Whitecott and their D-line coach that like they throw their weight around when it comes to
the D-line.
Yeah.
Titans still don't have a starting center or right guard.
Definitely true.
They just missed on Pregnan,
who just went a little bit earlier.
Where's, can I see guards?
I actually like this landing spot for Tyler Linderbaum.
Of course.
Oh, Basantis is nice.
Basantis is definitely interesting in this spot.
Can I go back and see pass rushers?
Because what's the better game plan for the Titans here?
to go edge rusher and then center guard or guard here and then edge rusher.
I feel like it would be the latter.
What I would love to do is get Chase Bessontas and then get Derek Moore.
You probably will get one of the falling edge rushers rather than the guard situation.
So it'd be Bessantis and then edge.
Let's go Bessantis.
I think we should go Bessontas here.
And then we'll try to get an edge rusher.
But then for the Giants, this is our last pick here at 37.
Still need a number two wide receiver unless they make that move in the pro market.
Yeah, they definitely.
Let's see wide receiver.
Chris Bell?
The thing is Chris Bell is a fit for them.
It's just a matter of if you're comfortable taking him at 37 with the health.
It's, I heard today that Chris Bell, like the prospects for him to be working out pretty soon are good.
like that he'd be able to do non-contact stuff during the summer
and then he'd be ready for week one.
I say we take Chris Bell here.
Let's go Chris Bell.
As long as you're good with the medicals,
I think we'd take Chris Bell.
That's some serious gas between him and Malik.
Yeah, yeah.
And so Sunny Styles and Chris Bell,
that's a pretty good haul there for the Giants.
Giants just got, that's so much team speed.
Yeah.
And then let's see Edge Rush here for the Titans.
Yep.
Crawford, High.
Ramello Heights.
Keon Crawford, Jayshon Barham, I think, is in this conversation,
although it would be a little early for him.
I have questions about height as a pro,
but to be fair,
if a team is going to have an NFL role for him,
it is this scheme.
Like, you think about what this scheme did for Bryce Huff as a UDFA out of Memphis.
Yeah, I think that that's fair.
It's third downs.
This scheme always finds a way to have this.
that DPR that can just get off the ball and turn the corner across your face.
So like once again, I have some doubts about height as a pro,
but at least this scheme has a place for him.
I think I like that.
I think I like that move of Ramello Height being the pick here.
I'm just kind of running through all these names,
but that's the one that I do agree with you.
Titans are shining Bobby O'Caricade with us.
The three-year, $45 million deal.
Wait, okay, who did we have them taking?
I think it was a joke, right?
Was that for real?
No, I think that's for real.
I thought that was a joke.
Because they just...
Oh, was it a joke?
I have to confirm.
I have to check this.
I have not seen that.
I think it's just a joke about the Titans being the Giants now.
Hmm.
Okay.
Unless I just missed it during us recording.
I also didn't.
You guys cannot throw this stuff out at us at the chat.
We have 18 screens open or trying to do a mock draft.
And that chat looked a whole lot like a lot like a copy and paste Pelliserro tweet.
It's well done.
Got our ass.
Yeah, they got my ass.
All right.
Ramella Hyde here for the Tassie Titans.
Before we read some more super chats, folks,
every week on Draft Rizers,
We're highlighting players that are climbing the board
as teams get deeper into the evaluation process.
These guys are rising because decision makers are getting
more confident in the full profile, not just
chasing the traits. Over the last couple of weeks,
the top draft riser for a lot of people
has been Sonny style. So we just had
go to the tent through the New York Giants
in number five overall.
Incredible combine, incredible film,
putting all of that together to make
for one heck of a football player. When you're
trying to identify risers like that, it's not about
guessing. It's about having better tools, better data, and a better
process. That same approach applies
and when you are making better decisions with your own money as well.

All right, where were we on the super chats here?
Shelton.
Shelton, above all else, generally hope mom and baby stay healthy and happy.
Sorry about his luck as a future jet fan.
Thank you, Shelton.
That is very, very nice.
Mark, $5 super chat.
Trevor, my condolences.
Connor, congratulations.
I think it's only fair that Connor has to pick for the Packers today.
Why would you have to pick for the Packers today?
Because you're already going through it.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If we get the Packers, I'm not, I'm just turning the camera off.
Charter.
This young lad will be a case study for the NFLSC bulking plan.
Yeah.
The chat started a poll.
What are we naming him?
I do appreciate that the chat is just assuming they get to name the kid.
Like that is the most on-brand thing for our audience, and I absolutely love it.
Hayden said the kid went full Chris Jones.
Jones at the ultrasound.
Imagine me looking at the doctor and going,
Dong out?
Dong?
Get out of the room.
That is actually how to go.
No melon is safe.
Loving the jets going full,
full blown tears of the sun on the defensive line.
Better get used to the taste of turf, Drake.
Wow.
No melon.
It's feeling.
Sean Mafia.
Trevor, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I know number 13 meant the world to you.
Connor, get ready to learn Brian Thomas, buddy,
45 days till draft day.
A lot of just wholesome comments today.
Truly, yeah.
J-TAC, $5 Super Chat.
Congrats on the Crash Goblin, Connor.
That's incredible.
Will you be passing on your generational,
well, will you be passing your generational sports trauma to him?
Or is he picking his own future therapy topics?
Yeah, I'm responsive.
for 75% of it.
Kristen is sharing the
carrying the entire blame of the Jets.
Odd Estimate said put a poll for the baby name
ideas. I vote my name.
Imagine me at the hospital.
Well, it appears that Odd Estimate won the poll
explaining that to the people
delivering the child.
Yeah, what's the first name? It's
Odd, A-U-D, and then Estimate,
and then you go like,
E-S, and like, yay, I got it, I know.
I know. The legend.
Yeah, I streamed him in fantasy, the final week of the season for the Saints.
Mesh chromatones.
With the Steelers nabbing Pitman and Dean, sorry, Tripp, is it almost a foregone conclusion,
Ty Simpson's the pick at 21?
Yeah, this is a really good, this is a really good thing to bring up because sort of underrated,
I feel like the moves that the Steelers made today.
Getting an outside corner and Jamel Dean to pair with JPJ, they lost James.
Pierre, but they re-signed Asante Samuel Jr. before things began so he could be a little bit of an
inside-out type of a player, brought back Cole Holcomb, but then traded for Michael Pittman Jr.
So a lot of the wide receiver ideas for them, man, they hit that in a major way by trading for him
and giving him an extension.
So I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he's the pick at 21, but I do think that it actually
opens things up for them to take an offensive lineman, if a good offensive tackle.
is available for them at 21, which I feel like would be the case.
What do you think?
Yeah, this was a good bit of business by the Steelers,
because now you're not locked into the scenario we've run through where it's like,
it's Denzel Boston, or it just kind of gives them a chance to not be pressed into one area,
although I could see a world where, like, if Rogers comes back,
they just see what Will Howard has as the number two rather than forcing themselves into
taking the next guy, because other places you,
be like, okay, I'm sure they really like Will Howard.
But the Steelers, it's like, I could see them wanting to see more of Will Howard.
So I had him go Ty Simpson in our last mock draft, but that was more of just like, this makes sense right now.
They're a tough franchise to get a read on with rebuilding at that position versus trying to go for it one more time.
Chat's saying that Drake Greenlaw got cut by the Broncos.
Wow.
Didn't they, like, wasn't it?
boom already a free agent?
No, not Roseboom.
They brought him back while we were recording.
Okay, okay, all right.
So he's bad.
But they moved on from Drake Greenlaw.
I wonder if Drew Sanders is now going to step into that spot.
I like to forgotten man from the, what was it, the 2025 draft class?
He really is.
He played edge and off ball and yeah.
Nobody knew what to do with him.
No one really knew what to do with them.
And understandably, he was kind of a weird player at both.
He really had the instincts for offball, but he had such good athleticism.
but you even have the polish of a pass rusher.
That'll be interesting.
Still lost in between.
What kind of compensation would you give up for BTJ?
I want to keep them unless the BTJ
and pick for Jalen Carter offer is true.
They're probably going to ask for a second,
but I think Trev nailed it where like you could ask for that,
but the best you might get is a third,
and at what point do you keep them?
Yeah, it just seems kind of strange,
like the value that he would get traded for
versus like how good he actually is.
Tators World K-9 to the Chiefs at not.
It's now either defensive line corner or wide receiver thoughts.
I did a mock draw in safety as well.
We just did that mock draft with Caleb Downs going at number nine overall.
Jagger Talks, Cards and Chiefs out on Jeremiah Love now.
Yes.
I think the Chiefs, reality sunk in.
He was never making it to them.
Axel Ron, the sun which our planet orbits is the second hottest thing in the solar system.
The hottest thing is now Todd Bowles' seat.
In back-to-back years, they let both Liam Cohen and Mike Evans.
leave the building.
Bad.
Bad.
It's a good point, man.
Bad.
Yeah.
Very bad.
Not good.
The opposite of good.
The antithesis is good.
It's not what you love.
The complete void of good.
It's not the best.
Andrew Hanson.
What's up?
Many camp invites.
That's a good one.
First off,
congrats to Connor on the future 6-5-250-pound inheritor of the pod.
Second, because Stowers can't block and therefore isn't a tight end.
Where does he rank in this white?
wide receiver class. What a super chat.
Hold on. I was reading something else. Let me get caught back up.
Basically, he said Stowers can't block so he's a wide receiver.
Which, yeah. Yeah, I mean, I like the general thought.
Where does you rank in this wide receiver class?
I can't even process that in my brain right now with all the receivers.
But the point is he is limited in terms of being an in line guy where he's not going to move in my
tight end rankings like people will expect.
I'll say that.
Like I still like Sam Roush and Eli Raritan better than Eli Stowers,
even though he had a freaky combine.
Um.
But that's on brand for me.
Like that's...
I wonder if Stowers would be right after the first three guys for me.
Yeah, I don't think that one.
Well, I'd Raritan and Roush, I think.
No, no, no, no.
I mean the first three wide receivers.
Oh.
If you were ranking him as a wide receiver.
Where would you rank it?
No, he would be behind Cooper and Bernard at a minimum.
He'd be behind Skyler Bell.
Yeah, no.
He'd be like wide receiver 11 for me.
I like Eli Stowers a lot.
I think he's a really,
really good athlete for how big he is.
Definitely.
Yeah, he wouldn't be, he wouldn't be right.
Well, he would be after those,
the top three guys, but he'd be further down.
Like, I'm thinking like Boston,
Cooper.
Like, he kind of be wherever the same,
the same spot that like Elijah Surat would be, right?
That's fair.
You're kind of thinking that they're the same.
sort of player. So maybe it would be that first bucket of like Tate Tyson Lemon. The second bucket is
Denzel Boston, Omar Cooper Jr., Casey Concepcion. And then like in the next bucket I probably
have, yeah, like Elijah Surat, Jerome Bernard, Eli Stowers would be in that bucket as just like pure
wide receivers. That's probably how I would do it unless I'm forgetting a name somewhere around there.
Sully can't wait for the kid to be named Red Schemicherry. Yeah, baby. Trevor gets
his way. That's absolutely the case. Taters world. Chiefs trade Rams, 2006 third for BTJ.
Interesting. I think, yeah, he's been what the chiefs have been chasing over the last couple of
years. And even like when they signed Taekwant Thornton. Right, right, right.
They try to get more at a speed that didn't work somewhere else. It's just wild how we're talking about
BTJ who was like after his rookie year was like BTJ might be a top 10 receiver already um let's yeah
I mean that was always way I know but like this is just such a way overblown drastic change
yeah that's why I don't know that's why I don't know what to do with the value I don't know what to do
with this whole situation today no idea uh perp skull trooper so lads just got into my top law school
congrats hey there we go that's awesome working to break into the
sports media agent world.
Nice.
Street saying little man the Mike Evans of babies.
Woohoo.
Congrats.
And I hope to see you at the Senior Bowl or Combine one day when you're an agent.
That's awesome.
That's awesome.
Congrats on getting into law school.
Absolutely kill it.
And yeah, like Connor said, hope we see it the Combine one day.
You know, it was like a tough, like finally really get an old moment.
I have now run into kids with real jobs in the industry at the Combiner Senior Bowl
that listened to stuff we've done when they were in high school.
What did you say?
Like, I'm finally at the age where, like, I'll run into people in the industry
at the Combiner Senior Bowl, and they'll be like, oh, like, I listened to you
when I was in high school.
Which is cool.
It's awesome.
It's always very good.
But I'm ancient.
It's over.
You are.
It's absolutely over.
It's absolutely over.
As the kids would say.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Somebody said, Noah fan.
What would the chat say?
Noah Fant where?
The Saints.
Okay.
You want to stop the show?
You want to do a Saints mock draft
because Noah Fant sign?
What happened for the Saints
at pick for the Saints at pick eight?
Because Noah Fant sign.
I didn't say we had to stop the show
and do a mock draft.
No, you said everything just changed for the Saints.
I didn't say that.
Everything just changed.
When did I say that?
When did I say that everything changed for the
What is Kellyn Moore cooking right now
with Noah Fan?
microwaveable mac and cheese
the three cheese kind
so you feel like you're eating fancy
I hope no offense goes nuclear
this year after this
yeah me too
you can own your ass
yeah every time he scores
people just at me
idiot
uh jay burgs
10 dollar super chat said
just now joining so I don't know if this has been discussed
but sources tell me that Ellie Wolf is completely
useless at his job also Connor
um
you missed it but
start bench cut oh yeah yeah this was
start bench cut
on the mock draft ones that we did.
It was a Game of Thrones.
Oh, love this.
So it was Sir Duncan the Tall,
Brianna of Tarth,
and The Hound,
start bench cut.
Yeah, I'm starting dunk,
and that's not recently biased.
Night of the Seven Kingdoms is already goaded.
I'm going to bench the hound.
Okay.
I'm going to cut Brianna of Tarth,
and it's not her fault,
because she was on the way to being,
honestly, like a potential start here,
and they just,
they didn't really look shocking game of throbs didn't land the plane volume 50 true it should have done
more for her like her being knighted was one of the sickest scenes the last season but 100% yeah yeah
I kind of thought when they did that I was like oh she's gonna die in the long night but like heroically
right right right yeah just like nothing happened yeah yeah yeah no nothing happened at all like it was
like such an emotional moment when she was knighted because I was like oh my god like she accomplished
everything she wanted to in life and now she's going to die heroically as a
night. And they were like, no, we're done. Who cares about Breanna Tart? So it's not her fault that
the writers totally blew that one. I, uh, I cut Sir Duncan the Tall just because I'm only two
episodes in. I'm only two episodes in. So I haven't, I haven't, I have no, I don't know the glory.
No spoilers, but just please text me after four episodes in. Okay. And be like, I will never
even think about benching Sir Duncan at all. Sounds good. All right. All right. I'm very intrigued by it,
But, you know, then free agency came around and I had to do my job.
Yeah.
Undertoe, took PTO today, DoorDash and Tacos, watching free agency all day.
Love the show, Loebros, keep it up, Short Kings.
That is a hell of a day.
I am extremely jealous of just kicking your feet up and enjoying free agency as it's coming to you.
Hoffy, $10 super chat.
Just checking in.
Wondering a quick thought on the Raiders so far.
We did a Raiders mock draft, so obviously we gave that to you guys.
We're very excited about the Raiders Foundation at the moment.
Are the Patriots only concerned with AJ Brown in the trade market,
or do they see Kyle Williams as D.J.
Jackson.
There's a lot going on there.
I mean, number one, they probably want AJ Brown,
especially after Al Pierce didn't make it a free agency.
But I would think they're going to put a lot more on Kyle Williams plate this year
because those flashes last year were like, yeah, that guy can truly stretch the field.
They'll get, the Patriots will make a move.
There's no way after cutting digs.
They're like, nope, this is it.
I think so, too.
They're just, yeah.
It's not the splash that a lot of people wanted it to be right off the bat.
Libertarian Sasquatch, too over a super chat.
Arch Manning, you are in Arizona Cardinal.
Have a hard time thinking that Manning family is going to let that happen at this point,
which is how the Cardinals organization has gone.
Not trying to throw a ton of shade at the Cardinals' organization,
but the Manning family also kind of seems to be controlling things
when it comes to Arch and where he could potentially land and all that.
Jan?
Yeah, Jan, do you think?
Leonard wants Cole Bishop to oh Jim Leonard Jim Leonard wants Cole Bishop to play Riley Leonard
so many Leonard Leonard more wants Cole Bishop to play slot I don't I don't know I don't know
Kauai Leonard has the headset Kaui Leonard is calling the place do you think Jim
Leonard wants Cole Bishop to play slot corner or why the hell did the bills release to Ron
Johnson what do you guys think is their biggest need I think stand-up edge big up from
checkia hell yeah checkia love that um
Ooh, okay.
So, no, I don't think Cole Bishop will play slot corner.
He played more of a box safety role.
I think they'll look to draft and develop another slot.
So they signed D. Alford.
So he might play slot.
There you go.
I don't know, man.
I wonder if Jordan Hancock plays more safety and Cole Bishop play slot.
I think he could in certain situations, but I wouldn't want Cole Bishop.
Like, I also need to see what they're going to be schematically,
because this is the first time in a long time
this defense is going to change who's running it.
I'm so used to the Sean McDermott like zones and mix and matches.
I wish I had like a deeper answer for you,
but I don't think Colbishop will be their slot corner.
That's how I feel, but he might be able to do a little both.
I kind of feel like he could be a nickel defender for them.
I also do agree that I think stand-up pass-risher is their biggest area of weakness right now.
stand-up pass rusher like i think if you're going to a three-four landon jackson's a defensive end
uh gregg russo can be a stand-up but he's a defensive end ed oliver's a defensive end
michael hoyt's a defensive end jvonne solomon is a stand-up outside linebacker for you but he's like
the only one that you have on the roster so um stand-up edge i think is is a is a major area
that they have to hit for sure uh wisk uh wiscoe says christian miller needs to be this year's bullrush mackettire
we're slowly getting there.
Yeah, basically.
Ethan, what do you think the odds are that love now falls to the Vikings,
non-existent, especially with New Orleans and Kansas City signing big name running backs.
I think the Chiefs and Saints did that because they know he's not making it to them.
I think that and...
That's a buzzkill.
Ooh, sorry.
That was tough.
That was brutal.
I'm kind of ashamed of myself.
Why don't you just trade Mike Evans from that guy's team while you're at it?
Why don't you just go ahead and do that?
Make his day worse.
I think that we've simply traded a couple of Jeremiah Love destinations for other ones as the day has gone on.
Yep, right?
Like, okay, the Saints and the Chiefs no longer really in contention for Jeremiah Love,
but now it increased the prospects of the Titans signing him and the Washington Washington commanders,
although the commanders in there as well.
So I think the day has just sort of shifted where Jeremiah Love might go rather than saying that his
projections can't tank outside of the top 10 could but I just don't really see it happening
Dr. Phoenix 10-dollar super chat appreciate you guys and the community my dad passed last

Minshu Mania is the gateway drug for Arch Manning.
Hey, you want to try some Minchew? Next thing you know, I'm on the arch.
I don't know why, but you leaning in and then you should.
your shoulders up forward with that voice just absolutely kill me.
Sinister stuff.
Hey.
Hey, can you guys try to get in a little minshue before the arch?
Just give it a try.
You guys have tried minchu, but have you tried arch?
Just one try.
Everybody's doing it.
Andrew Bailey.
That was good.
Free agency live on Chess Day.
Let's go, boys.
Hell yeah.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, that seems like a max bench day to me if I've ever heard one.
Yeah, 100%.
hour cooking. Whether you're sad or happy, to be honest with you. Yeah, yeah. I might have to hit chest
after this. I think you have no choice. Just, yeah. You have no choice. Just listening to, I'm just going to play
the Oppenheimer soundtrack. And then just just and then just yeah, max out. Let's see.
Still lost in between 10-dollar super chat. What's Devin Lloyd's market? Would you rather draft a defensive
tackle for the Jags or an edge rusher and kick Trayvon Walker inside? Jags mock draft is really
tough to predict. Jacks are a tough team to predict. I don't know what Devin Lloyd's market is.
He seems like every time we talk about him with literally anybody, people are like, oh yeah,
everybody would love Devin Lloyd. And then I don't really get a good feel on what his market is.
I feel like it's going to be somewhere between like $15, $20 million a year and he is the best
linebacker that's available on the market. We've seen some linebacker Domino's fall already,
but I think that position just in general is one that's slower to go in free agency. If I was
the Jags would I rather have a defensive tackle or kick Trayvon Walker inside.
I don't happen. Wait, what happened to my... I'll let you fix that. Hold on. What happened
on my camera? Yeah, you're gone. And it's tough. First, Mike Evans, now your camera?
Now my camera's going. What next? What next? You come down Sarah's from the podcast and Marble's looking
at you and he's just like, sorry, dad. I'm going away to college. Everything's leaving you.
I would not kick Trayvon Walker inside.
I think he's developed into a really, really good edge player.
Yeah, in certain fronts, can you have him work inside?
Sure, but as a full-time player, I don't love that.
So I would most likely try to get a player that can work for you through this draft
or even the later tiers of free agency at D-Tackle.
I hope they find a way with Devin Lloyd because he exploded on this defense last year.
He's probably looking at what the over, uh,
off-ball linebacker market has become, and probably like Linderbaum did with the center market,
kind of wants to blow it out of the water.
And the problem is, like, Linderb...
And maybe this changes, but with Linderbom, he had so many suitors that he was always going to be able to do that.
And Devin Lloyd deserves that.
He's a hell of a player, but you just, you have to have this insane market to be able to get
that kind of deal.
And that's probably what the holdup is, if you really want to kind of blow that market.
get out of the water.
So, and if he doesn't, then the best scenario is him going back to Jacksonville.
All right, Aaron, we demand a lot for BTJ.
Oh, we can demand a lot for BTJ.
New team acquires 2.1 million guaranteed in 2020, 2.8 million guaranteed in 2007.
Of course, the fifth year option because he was a first rounder in 2020.
I think it's a front office that's very eff those picks.
We need a top player in return.
I get it.
I get it.
But the problem is, I just, I don't know.
know if anyone's going to give you a lot for him where i think it's more of at that point you just
keep them if everything can be mended there or whatever's going on but i don't think he gets the
return that you guys are hoping for and i love this player like i i would hope he gets that kind of
return but it just feels like i don't i don't see it i mean i think the best they do is a second
rounder, which is totally possible.
But you start to lose a little leverage when you make the decisions around the player.
Like you traded for Jacoby and extended him, right?
Like they've made some other moves where I don't know.
I just, I don't see it.
If I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
I'd just be shocked if it's a big return.
And maybe that leads to them just kind of keeping him for another year.
Chad, the Steeler fan.
What do you all think about the Steelers moves today?
Also, congrats Connor well wishes.
Your son is already the Mike Evans of Connor Rogers.
Thank you, Chad.
I really appreciate that.
We talked about this briefly,
but the Steelers did some really good work today
because they were just able to round out their roster in ways
that doesn't pigeonhole them in the draft,
which is, oh, welcome back.
Yeah, I've been using my camera so much over the last two days
that I'm pretty sure, like, the USB attachment overheated.
That's pretty wild.
And I had to switch it out
because it felt like it was hot enough to melt.
If you think you content, listen to this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let me tell you, you don't.
I like what the Steelers are doing.
Yeah, we were saying that was a good day for the Steelers.
Sauter.
Shout at the Ravens for zeroing out my first night of the draft when I booked a trip to Pittsburgh for it.
Shout out six Evan Crosby will be a baller.
What?
Shout out six.
Oh, six, Evan.
Wow, I got got got.
that's like an all time.
Yeah, I'm out.
Get absolutely smoked, brother.
Absolutely smoked.
Pronounced medium time listener, first time super.
That's, I love that.
What a weekend.
Got my NFL SEC.
Hell yeah, love it.
Appreciate your support in the show.
Performed the ceremony for my best friend's wedding.
My Raiders got two first, Linderbom, Nailer,
and now pay things are looking up that is one hell of a week that's awesome also congrats to your
friends really cool that you were the efficient and that you uh and that you got to marry them that's a
that's a really cool experience we had uh my wife and i had one of our best friends uh somebody mentioned
that you stood up so now you get to be i slid out of frame because i knew if i stood next to the shelf
i'd never hear the end of it and i've had it yeah you would have absolutely never heard the end of it
100% um but uh my wife and i had uh one of our best friends uh was
the one who was the efficient.
It was very good.
And it was just really cool.
It's just a really cool moment.
Something that you'll remember forever.
Johnny, with the signing of Odafei Owe and Edge Off of the Board,
who does Washington take between love downs and Delane?
I feel like if love is there, they would take love.
I think if love's on the board at 7, they're going to take love.
They took care of a lot of their business on defense today that at least opens that door, right?
I also miss the Odafei OA. OA.
O'Signing for Washington.
Yeah, some stuff has trickled in since we've been on the air.
because we've been on for an hour and a half already,
so we miss some stuff.
Four year,
$100 million deal.
Yeah,
that's a monster.
That,
that's a lot.
It's a monster deal.
What?
Am I crazy?
No, that's,
man,
edge rushers get paid,
dude, especially when they're young.
I mean,
that's great,
Odafe OA money if you can get it.
That is the new Dan Moore.
Well,
I'm pretty certain this is the richest Adafé OA.
Am I crazy?
I feel like that's a lot.
It's really not, man.
The edge market is...
Maybe it's not, but...
Like, the top dogs are in the 40s right now.
I guess.
I guess you're right.
It happened fast.
I guess all the big dogs are in the 40s.
You're right?
You're right.
Yeah, it happened fast.
We still don't have Trey Hendrickson, right?
No, no.
Man, I...
Ooh, buddy.
I think Trey Hendrickson is...
I think Trey Hendrickson is wanting to be paid like one of the big dogs because of his production,
but coming on...
off of the year and the injury.
Right.
I don't think teams are willing to do it.
So I bet the gap is very far, just like it was very far for the Bengals.
And I wonder if the Bengals are kind of sitting here.
Like, we told you, we told you that we weren't going to give you that much money
because that's not what your market is, but we'll be very interesting to see where he ends up signing.
Tommy.
Yeah, go ahead.
Congrats on the exciting news, Connor.
Thank you, Tommy.
Finally catching a live show while home with my sleeping newborn son.
Congrats, Tommy.
Wishing you and your fan the best.
Tommy, same with you, man.
Thank you so much.
Love that.
I wanted to make sure that I hit this one for Bryce.
Bryce gave us a $100 super chat.
Oh, hello.
So one of the few benefits of being a corporate sellout is your annual bonus hitting your account.
Had to share some with you, Pips Weeks.
Much love.
I'm also going to be having a new baby boy here soon.
Grats price.
I think Bull Rush McIntyre Henry has a very nice ring to it.
Congratulations, Bryce.
I hope you and the misses are obviously as prepared as you could be, as happy as you can be as healthy as you could be heading.
into this process. So thank you for the $100 super chat. It means a ton that you would choose to
support the show and anybody out there, obviously. It means a lot to us that you guys would
give us the stuff to support the show. So hopefully the entertainment value is what you guys are
paying for and you're always enjoying the show. So appreciate it, guys. Thank you. Thank you, Bryce.
And congrats to you, man. That's freaking awesome. I'm jumping around here a little bit.
Evan. First off, congrats on your firstborn, Connor, and apologies on losing yours,
Trevor, Mike Evans. With the consensus that Jordan Tyson is dropping in the draft,
were you hearing anything about the combine, about the medicals?
That's a weird one. Isn't it, Trev? Because I haven't heard anyone saying, like,
hey, Tyson's, he's just fallen right now. But naturally, since he didn't work out at the combine
due to injury, it feels like it's naturally happened. Yeah, I mean, it's not.
great when you miss the entire season due to, well, not the entire season.
No, no, he missed part of the season due to a hamstring injury.
And you still can't do anything at the combine because of said hamstring injury.
He clearly re-agravated it.
Because it's been so long.
Sure.
But that goes into it.
100%.
Like if your body isn't great with soft tissue injuries, that's not great.
So, yeah, I mean, I, you're right.
I haven't heard anything.
Like, I didn't hear anything of like, oh, man, the knee is real bad.
It was really just the fact that he couldn't run.
By the way, breaking news, Nikobi Dean to the Raiders.
Goal.
Love it.
Yeah.
I love it.
336.
A Raider.
Really good day for the Raiders, man.
Dude, John Spitech is just out here.
What a, what a phenomenal day for the Las Vegas Raiders.
It's honestly a master class over the last week.
What had changed in that organization.
You got the right guy at the top leading that organization, man.
Yeah, it's good piece of work for the Raiders.
Yeah, we'll get to a couple more here before we sign off for the day.
Evan, give us a $20 super chat.
Oh, no, no, no, that was the one you just read.
Sorry, I'm a little bit behind you scrolling.
Yeah, we're right.
JMJ, $20 said, congratulations, Connor, put this super chat towards your baby's first creatine jar.
Oh, you bet.
Directly.
Love it.
David, who are the New York Ravens picking at five?
We did a mock draft for them, just for you.
Whoever is there between love and styles.
That's exactly what we did.
So hopefully, David, we solved that one for you.
Alex gave us a $10 super chat.
Thoughts on the Crosby trade for the Ravens.
Do you think two first round picks is a good deal for them?
Also, congrats Connor.
Do you think the baby will be good to suit up next week?
Or suit up in week one now that our entire offense has left?
I'll let you answer the baby question there,
but I think I don't hate it for the Ravens.
I like it more for the Raiders.
I don't hate it for the Ravens
because you do still have Lamar Jackson
and I'm very much pro when you have a Super Bowl caliber
franchise quarterback.
Just maximize the window, man.
Just go all in on it.
So Crosby is about as big of a competitor
as you're possibly going to get.
He's going to be a great locker room
dude for you. He's going to motivate the team to be great and want to win a Super Bowl. So all of that,
I think, is really good for the Ravens. Two first round picks for a 29-year-old pass rusher is a lot
of money, even for a player who is as good as Max Crosby. But at least they are a team that is in a
winning window with a franchise quarterback. So I do like the move for the Ravens. I liked it more for
the Raiders, to be honest with you. I was pretty even. I think this is exactly what the Ravens needed
to do.
And I think it's the right timing for the Raiders to make this trade and get the assets.
But I think Max Crosby is going to be a monster for Baltimore and potentially take them to the next level.
By the way, the Raiders are not stopping.
They just signed Quay Walker.
The Raiders also signed Quay Walker?
They just signed Quay Walker.
So they have a totally new linebacker room, which you said, Trevor, like literally an hour ago,
you're like, they don't have anything a linebacker.
They quite literally don't.
Yeah.
And then they, they've made two massive moves, which I'm fascinating.
to see the details of this deal, but they, the Raiders are really revamping this roster,
knowing they are getting the quarterback.
Whew.
Wow.
Big moves.
Yep.
Big moves there from the Raiders.
All right, handful more.
Can we get out of here?
Yeah, a couple more.
Okay.
I got an important one.
Randy Booth.
With Alec Pierce off the board and the Eagles asking for Conner's firstborn,
where do the Patriots turn for a veteran wide receiver?
What do you think, Treve?
I still think they can get an AJ Brown deal across the finish line.
Let me remind myself of who is available in free agency.
Well, not much.
Romeo Dobbs.
Oh, I don't hate Dobbs.
I like Romeo Dobbs.
Did Juan Jennings sign anywhere?
No, I don't think he did.
No.
So I think Juan Jennings is kind of like the AJ Brown light, right?
Like, if you don't get A.J. Brown, J. Wan Jennings is of that same style of receiver.
Right.
So I like both of those options.
Juan Jennings, Romeo Dobbs.
I like both of those.
That makes sense.
Somebody asked,
oh, why Fields over Saraff or Las Vegas invest in the center
and more to make Mendoza comfortable in transition?
Why not give him his favorite target?
Yeah, I mean, you can.
It's just I think that Fields is more of a field stretcher for you.
Like, he gives you more vertically.
And I think that they've got some guys who can win underneath.
I think Naler, I think Jack Bash,
I think the tight ends.
can win in the short and intermediate.
And I think the field just gives you a little bit more of a vertical stretch
on top of Trey Tucker, who they already have.
So that was my, that was the reason why I did that.
Kyle, the mailman just dropped off my NFL SE hats.
Let's go.
Let's go.
To see it.
Great work by Treb and Company to get all those out.
Gabriel said, I got my hat today.
So along the same lines, congrats on getting the hat.
Thank you for supporting the show.
Bengals signed any combo of Woolen, Lloyd, Chanel, Greenlaw, Walker, and Logan Hall.
and I'll buy the whole Sinti front office one.
Yeah, it feels like the Bengals one more defensive move
and you'd be like, okay, starting to feel a lot better.
You would feel pretty great about it.
All right.
Yep.
That's it.
A mammoth day.
A massive thank you to everybody.
I think we were hovering around 3,000 viewers throughout the stream.
You guys are awesome.

I cannot thank everybody enough.
Appreciate you guys.
This is a very fun show.
It's sort of hard to do for mid-free agency shows because there's so many things going on,
but we kind of just wanted to turn the cameras on.
Obviously, you know, not for the whole time for me because my camera shut off, obviously.
But other than that, we just wanted to turn the cameras on and just have some fun with you guys.
So appreciate you rocking with us.
We'll be back on Wednesday.
We'll have another episode on Wednesday.
We might be like updating the team needs or maybe we'll be itching to just do a full mock again,
a post-free agency mock on Wednesday.
We'll see.
We'll see.
