You can't help yourself.
You can't help yourself.
What did I say?
Six, seven.
I didn't say seven.
Well, I didn't say seven.
I didn't say seven.
I said six.
Chat.
Help me chat.
I said six.
The chef is saying seven.
I have thrown the challenge flag.
We're going to VAR technology.
Yeah.
I did not say this.
I have Rodriguez.
We're going to have him.
Six.
Seven.
Something like that.
Right around there.
I mean, it's like, like, I can't help yourself.
The opening bell of the NFL Stock Exchange podcast.
Trevor Sykima here with you guys.
No Connor Rogers because, of course,
he's big time in us.
He's big time in us.
His Super Bowl media Euro.
You know, he's doing all the content.
He's on all the big shows.
He's forgetting about us.
The podcast is over.
We're breaking up.
I didn't know how to tell you guys.
No, I'm just kidding.
We're not.
But Connor's not here.
It's just going to be me navigating through,
just like last week,
a brand new batch of team-specific mock drafts here
on the wheel of mock drafts.
We'll be spinning the wheel.
The Evil Week.
is, I got a sneak peek of it and it has more of a piece of the pie this week somehow.
So I wonder if we'll get the Packers again.
But we're doing to win things down.
We've only got a handful of teams left that we haven't done team mock drafts for.
So we're going to try to get to as many as we can.
I think four is probably what we'll shoot for here on today's show.
And I'm excited to go through it with you guys.
These are much more heavily influenced by the chat.
I would say certainly when we don't have the two.
of us here on the show. And so this is going to be a lot of, this is giving me a lot of chat interaction,
chat back and forth. And of course, we'll get the chef Tyler Cook involved in this show a little
bit more as well, just like he was last week when we were running through the wheel. I'm standing
by it, man. I'm standing by it. And you know what? Tyler editing that cold open the way that he did
tells me I was right. It tells me I was right. I didn't say seven. I said,
six and then you guys all misheard me. I'm blaming you. I'm not taking ownership for it. I didn't
do it. Not this time. You can't accuse me of six, seven farming this time. Although that time,
a couple of seconds ago, you can, that one actually happened. We didn't need VR, VAR technology
for that one. I'd love to run through as many as possible while getting to as many of your
chats as possible. Obviously, just like we do for every single episode, even though it's just me.
I'll save most of the super chats for the end
and we'll kind of go through that
in the after the episode portion of the show
but let's get to the reason
why everybody's tuned in
let's pull the wheel up Tyler
he's gonna
look
I'm exposing him a little bit here
he's feeling a little under the weather
all right but don't
don't be mean
don't be mean to the chef
he's powering through he's here to make sure
that this show goes on even though he's not
feeling 100%
it's called playing
through it. Tyler, how we feeling? How we feeling? How we feel? We feel it a little bit better today
or kind of the same thing? Yeah, we're feeling a little bit worse than yesterday. So yeah, but
it's all good because we got the wheel. We got the evil wheel. And the addicts actually sent out a
little post on the YouTube channel and the addicts gave me some really, really good ideas for what to
put on the evil and eviler wheel. So. Okay. So I have no idea what's behind the evil wheel this time.
No, it's pretty much completely different.
And I specifically don't know what's behind the evil or wheel once we get to the evil wheel.
You see how big of a piece of the pie that is?
You're, you are making this bigger every single week.
No, no, no, it's the same size as last week for sure.
No, it's not.
No, no.
Now I'm calling you out.
I'm calling you out.
I don't think it's any bigger.
We can ask the chat.
I don't think it's any bigger.
might have to go to VAR for that one as well.
By the way, the chat is saying that this episode is your Michael Jordan flu game.
This is the flu game.
This is you playing through it.
That's going to be one of the greatest episodes that anybody has ever seen.
And with that, let's fire away.
I think we just got to spin it.
Yeah, let's spin the wheel.
Let's see what we got here.
Bengals fans have been begging for a mock draft, so I kind of hope that we get to the Bengals here today.
I didn't know this would happen.
I didn't know this would happen.
I had no idea.
I didn't,
oh,
it's going to be the Ravens.
Bengals fans are probably really pissed about that
because it was almost going to be a Bengals mock
and now it's going to be a Baltimore Ravens mock.
As we do for all of these mock drafts here
on the wheel of mock drafts,
it will be a three round mock draft here.
So we'll pull up the beautiful PFF mock draft simulator.
We will select the Baltimore Ravens
selecting at number 14 here in the first round.
I don't think they have any bonus picks.
here, Tyler, if you hit Enterdraft, I think they just have the three. Yeah, just a standard
standard three mock draft or three pick mock draft here for these three rounds with the
Baltimore Ravens. I've got to make sure that I do my best here for two reasons. Well, three reasons.
One, we love Ravens fans here. So that's obviously the first reason. Two, my boss, my content
director at PFF, Gordon McGinnis is a Ravens fan. And three, Beckett is a member of the
PFF social team, he is chronically online, and if we mess this up at all whatsoever,
somehow he is going to manipulate our content to make us look bad.
So we can't have any of that.
We got the Ravens on the board here at number 14.
Very curious right off the bat what the chat sort of thinks as the overall needs for this
team.
I think a certified difference making wide receiver on this team is needed.
They have a lot of names at wide receiver,
but I just feel as though we've been having this conversation
for many years now with Baltimore.
They need a wide receiver who is a legitimate option,
especially with Mark Andrews getting older.
They need a legitimate option at wide receiver.
I think that their interior,
specifically the guards,
obviously Tyler Lindervaum is fantastic when he is fully healthy,
but the guard play was not nearly what it needed to be
for the Ravens this season.
A lot went wrong for them.
They went through some injuries.
They were switching things up along the,
offensive line with some new guys in there, but it just, it was not as good as it needed to be there
for Baltimore. And so I think that interior offensive line is going to be on the table for them here
in this mock draft as well. And then edge rusher. Now, edge rusher is interesting because
they drafted Mike Green last season. Mike Green did not really have a very impactful
rookie year, but that does not, that's not to say that he can't have a breakout sophomore season,
second year season in the NFL.
I thought it was interesting that they traded away Odafe OAOA to the Los Angeles Chargers
when pass rush was really an issue for them.
When we were recording, I think yesterday is when somebody said this in the chat,
but Nondybite Bueke had tweeted, you know, what did he tweet?
Like, good news or hearing good things.
I don't remember exactly what it was, but essentially it was like,
essentially good news.
And you would hope that that's because things are looking up for him and his neck injury.
Because anytime you're dealing with a neck injury where you don't play for an extended period of time,
you worry, okay, well, is this going to be something that's going to be career altering?
And obviously, we don't help that with anybody.
And Nanywai de Bique is a big reason why.
His absence is a big reason why I think the Ravens really struggled more than they should have in the trenches this season.
So that's the, oh, yeah, that's actually a good point.
D. Sauter said, Mac or O'A may come back with Minter now as the head coach.
It's actually a really good point because Jesse Minter was probably in the conversations to bring him over at the trade deadline.
And with him being a free agent, he might just be back over with Baltimore.
So that's kind of funny.
So let's see what the options are here at number 14.
Anybody, you know, the wide receivers, let's see who's off the board at wide receiver.
Jordan Tyson's off the board.
Carnal Tate's off the board.
Amichai Lemons off the board.
one, two, three right there.
So I'm not going to be thinking
at a wide receiver here at this spot.
If I wanted a wide receiver,
it would have been one of those three guys.
I wouldn't really,
I wouldn't think Casey Concepcion here at number 14.
I wouldn't think Denzel Boston here at number 14.
If you trade down into later in the first round,
I think that we could get in that conversation.
Cassius Howl is interesting.
Obviously a very productive pass rusher,
like we've talked about many times before on this show,
really good pass rush grade,
19.9% passers win percentage this past season.
He's had an elite passers grade in each of the last three seasons, actually.
So he's pretty seasoned.
He's been doing this for a while.
The interesting factor here with the Raven specifically is
Mike Green was already an edge rusher who you were sacrificing length for
because he had much shorter arms.
What was Green's?
What was Green's arm length?
He was on the much shorter side.
his arm length was 32 inches, which is sixth percentile for edge rushers.
And Cassius Howe reportedly could be even smaller than that.
So on one hand, you say to yourself, well, this is a Ravens front office, at least,
that took him and was okay with that.
Would they do that for two edge rushers, though?
Betting on one outlier is different than betting on two outliers.
So I'm not convinced that even though they need edge rusher, they would take Howl.
On the offensive line, Vega-Owane makes a ton of sense for them, the Penn State Guard,
because he was so good in pass protection this past season.
He was one of the best past protecting guards in the country, that 87.0 pass-blocking grade.
He was good. He was good. I was about to say serviceable, but I think it's even better than that.
He was good in the run game. He wasn't dominant in the run game, but I do think that he is an immediate
type of starter for them along the interior offensive line.
If they wanted to go for a bigger-sized player,
maybe you think about Caden Proctor at this point
and you're making him a guard,
like you're drafting him specifically to be a guard.
I think T.J. Parker is maybe somebody
that you think about as well.
If you wanted an edge rusher,
I don't think you have to pick offensive line here.
But Tyler, can you show me the guards?
Because it pick 45.
that's the issue is that normally I'm not really saying
you've got to pick interior offensive linemen in the first round.
Normally I'm not really about that.
But if you were to wait until 45,
I think Emmanuel Pregnan, there's a chance he could be there at 45,
but you're running a real risk because after him,
I mean, the next guy is Chase Bessantis, in my opinion,
who maybe you feel good about it at one of those guard spots.
But I think that at 45, that might be a little bit early for him,
Keelan Rutledge is an option for them as well, but he's
somebody I'd rather target it at pick 80, whereas
okay, can you show me edge rushers here? Because I think edge rusher is deeper
for them. Yeah, I mean, there's just so many more guys to be able to choose from as we go
throughout the draft. So I think where T.J. Parker, I see what Sauter saying in the chat.
Like T.J. Parker could be a good option for them. Like, everybody knows that I love
Akeem Messador. Like I think that
Messador, by the way, James, their three-round mock drafts that you see
him saying that in the chat. I love Messador for them.
Would they consider him at 14? I'm not sure just with the age.
But I do think that he, if you want to make the pass rush better
immediately next year, like he's the best player left available to do it.
I think I'm going to go. I think I am going to go with Owane.
Let's go with the guard. Let's go with, let's go with Vig O'Wane here.
Let's make sure that we're upgrading the trenches with somebody who
we know could start because they had Andrew Vorese, Daniel Folle Lele last year,
Follelae struggled.
I think Vorese was okay if I'm remembering correctly.
They also drafted Emery Jones Jr.
who played offensive tackle when he was at LSU.
I've always thought he was more of a guard.
I like him as sort of like a backup type of a player,
but I still think that they need to make sure that they get a starter there.
So let's go with Vega-Owane.
I think that's the right choice for them at 14,
especially the way the board broke.
I would consider one of those top three wide receivers,
like I mentioned Jordan Tyson,
Carnell Tate,
and Mackay Lemon.
I would love Tate, to be honest with you.
Like if Tate was there at 14,
I'd have a real hard time
picking somebody over him.
So we've got O'Anne.
All right, the chat seems to like it.
That's good.
Not getting bullied yet in this episode.
So now, yeah, you look at this,
and I think that this is the right decision for them
because just even looking at the edge rushers on the best available here.
Like Zion Young is there.
Romello height is there.
These are guys that you feel pretty good about Derek Moore.
I would think about him potentially at 45.
It might be a little bit early for him at 45,
but I thought he had an excellent senior bowl.
One would power consistently.
I think that Minter would get a ton out of Derek Moore.
So I think that the fit value,
of him brings him up into this, you know, maybe him at 45 type of a conversation.
Is Accus available? I don't think Agus is available. I think he got picked. Yeah, he just got
picked to the Texans right before. I think Gabe Accus would also be excellent for this team.
Funny enough, Immanuel Pregnon did last until 45. And I do think that there's a chance that he
does. It's just you have a much better chance of getting an edge rusher that you want still
available here at number 45 if you're the Ravens.
than truly running the risk.
O'Dy Sauter is also pointing out the fact that Derek Morris from Baltimore,
a little bit of a homecoming.
I don't think there's another.
Can I see wide receiver?
Let's just see wide receiver.
Yeah, I mean, I'd love Omar Cooper Jr. for this team,
but I don't think that I like Omar Cooper Jr.
enough to pick here over the edge rushers that are still available versus,
can we see edge rushers versus the edge rushers that I think would be available in the third round?
Yeah, I think I'm pretty comfortable with that.
I think I'm pretty comfortable taking receiver next.
Let's go.
I'm actually, I'm going to go with Zion Young.
I'm between Zion Young and Derek Moore here.
I like Ramello Heights, but Ramello Heights's a little bit too finesse for me.
And I think that Mike Green might be more of a finesse player,
given that he has smaller measurables and he's more of a speed rusher.
He's got some good bend and explosiveness to him.
But I think he's more of.
that finesse rusher and Zion Young he can win with power he can win with length he's a legit
260 pounds he's a legit six foot five he's got the long arms to him we saw him at the senior
bowl win uh with with a ton of power and i think that that's probably the best way to do it and then
mr sonic in the chat is is saying hopefully malachi fields the wide receiver from
Notre Dame gets to them at number 80.
That is also the player that I had my eye on.
So let's go the edge rusher here.
Let's go Zion Young.
I like this strategy for them so far.
And then wide receiver.
Yeah, there is.
Malachi Fields was awesome at the Senior Bowl.
And I also think that Malachi Fields is,
I think Malachi Fields is pretty much
the best case scenario version of why you drafted Tess Walker.
Right?
like this is this bigger vertical threat type of wide receiver for you.
And Malachi Fields is just a better blocker.
I think he's a better route runner.
I think he's a better all around receiver at like in all facets while also being
that vertical field stretcher for you.
So this is a pretty, this is a pretty ideal draft.
And I think this is also a pretty realistic draft.
Maybe Zion Young's not going to last until number 45.
But even with that being the case,
I might be all right going with Derek Moore at that spot,
given how he played at the Senior Bowl.
So Vega-Owane, Zion Young,
and then let's lock it in.
Let's go Malachi Fields here.
I think that this is a pretty ideal draft for the Baltimore Ravens.
I think that you get, you see the, well, first of all,
the PFF mock draft simulator, who knows who's running this thing now?
Mike McCarthy's off in Pittsburgh.
He's now the head coach of the Steelers.
We haven't filled the role yet.
I don't know if you guys have seen it at PFF.com backslash jobs,
but maybe they put it up there.
Maybe they haven't.
But I think that this is,
we're off the rails here.
I don't even know who's grading these things.
Mrs. Sonic 10 out of 10, Trev, no short jokes this week.
I appreciate it.
I'll be waiting for them next week when I,
when I inevitably do something that the chat doesn't like,
and then the short jokes will come back.
Raven's A plus draft there.
I appreciate it. Thank you.
Thank you.
That's so Raven.
There it is.
I like the reference.
Uncle Phil.
Wait, Uncle Phil's saying not for me.
Didn't get a good grade for me?
Uncle Phil, who would you have taken?
Oh, Alfie Curtis is saying I would have preferred Ted Hurst, but no complaints.
I like Malachi Fields a lot more than I like Ted Hurst.
I think that Ted Hurst is a little bit better in contest to catch situations, but not by a ton.
And I think that Fields has more explosiveness.
And I just think that he's played at a higher level
the last couple of years.
And so it's a little bit more proven.
I also felt like Fields was even more of a standout at the Senior Bowl.
So I like this draft a lot.
There we go.
Starting off on the right foot.
I'm feeling good about this.
Feeling good about these four mock drafts.
There's the first one.
So we obviously, we've taken the Ravens off the board.
Yeah, they're gone.
Which means the evil or wheel has gotten bigger.
I think it looks smaller.
I don't know about you.
I don't think it looks bigger.
I've never been gaslit more in my entire life than I am right here on this show.
I think you're gaslighting me.
I can't even.
I can't rewind the tape.
I can't rewind the tape.
I'll have to look back at the show to make sure that I'm right.
But I think you're making the eviler wheel a little bit bigger every time.
Trevor, you're crazy.
Have you drank enough water today?
No, I haven't actually.
So while you spin it.
Yeah, let me spin it while you drink that water.
We're gonna get the protein shaker filled with water this time around.
Go ahead and spin the loop.
So many of the chat said, why is the evil or wheel smaller?
No, we're not getting it.
Now, we're not getting it.
We're not getting it.
Come on, stop in the Texans.
We got a lot of Texas fans watching the show right now.
We've got a lot of fans with Texas.
There it is.
We get a lot of Houston Texas fans with Houston Texans logos and their AV or their username or whatever.
So this is great.
This is perfect.
I'm glad that you guys are getting to see this Houston Texans mock
draft live. The Texans, very interesting. It's very interesting because they're all over the
place in this draft. They're picking 28th. Obviously made the playoffs. Let's enter the draft because
I can't remember exactly what the numbers are. They've got 28, 38, 38, 59, and 69. So we've got four
selections here for the Houston Texans.
Somebody in the chat said,
O line three times.
Mark said,
Ty Simpsoner, we riot.
Good Lord.
I don't think we can give up on C.J. Strau that quickly.
He's still on the rookie contract, folks.
You still got to,
you still got to get some value out of that.
Offensive line three times, though,
I do,
uh,
I do think that there is a chance where
that could potentially.
eventually happen. So we're picking at 28. Obviously, it's not extremely ideal. So for the Houston
Texans, we do have to set the stage with the offensive line conversation. You draft Arionte
Erisarii, and it looks like Arionte Erisory can be a starting offensive tackle for you. It was
an up and down year for him, but you know, you draft him last year, you feel good enough about it. I think
he's going to man one of those tackle spots. Titus Howard, I think can play tackle for you. And
there's a beauty in Titus Howard because I think he can't play tackle, but he can also play
guard for you. So you have a little bit of flexibility there. How many guys, how many of these
guys are free agents? Because I think a handful of them were just on one year deals to try to figure
it out anyways. Let's see. Ed Ingram's a free agent. Jared Kingston's a free agent.
Oh, is that it? For the offensive line? Man, I thought it was more than that. All right. So it's just
those two guys. So we've got those two
offensive guards who are free agents.
Jake Andrews is still there, but I think that you, and you
got Drew, Drew Scruggs behind him, but
I think you could probably upgrade his center.
You have Jared Patterson as well. You got Blake
Fisher who, I think Blake Fisher is just kind of a
rotational, maybe swing,
backup offensive tackle. And then you got Trent
Brown, too, which
where did
Trent Brown mostly played this year?
I know he played right tackle for him.
Is that where he played most this year? Because he plays
all around. Oh, he just played
right tackle for them. Okay. Okay. So he didn't, he didn't really switch that up at all this year,
but he only played from week 10 on. He's played all over in his career. The last two years,
he's played right tackle mostly, played left tackle in New England from 2033 and 22.
So he's going to be probably a swing backup offensive tackle as well, unless they want him to be
a starting offensive tackle, which he could. Monroe Freeling is on the board.
board. I see some people talking about Monroe Freeling. Caleb Lomu is on the board. I think that
Caleb Lomu is better than Monroe Freeling. So if we would take an offensive tackle prospect, I would
be taking Caleb Lomu. Are there, let me see, though, because we're trying to, we're, I know
offensive line is, is the major need here. But if Trent Brown is going to be a starting, if he's going to
be a starting right tackle this year, which maybe the chat could tell me and yell at me,
maybe Houston, Texas fans could tell me like, no, like, we don't want him.
as our starting offensive tackle this year.
If he starts for your right tackle,
that means that you probably have your two offensive tackles right there.
Titus Howard can also play right tackle if needed.
So you're really more just looking to upgrade at center and guard.
Like if you think that low move or an offensive tackle,
a long term,
a long term offensive tackle option is the best choice here.
I could see that.
Trem Brown's playing QB next year.
Okay, you're right.
I, I forgot.
I forgot that.
Texans comments are in the chat saying,
you know it's bad when Trent Brown is the linchpin here.
Him not playing versus New England forced Titus to right tackle.
Jared Patterson in the left guard.
Let's see.
Yeah, I do think that I'm going to pick a center here
for people in the chat that are talking about upgrading their center spot.
somebody's saying that Brown's a free agent.
I don't see him.
Oh, now I do.
Okay, yes, sorry, sorry.
Texas fans are probably screaming at me
because he was listed as a right tackle
and I was looking at it alphabetically.
I was looking at just offensive tackle.
And so I missed him there.
So he's a free agent.
Okay.
So that changed the conversation entirely.
I like Caleb Lomu more than I like Monroe freely.
I think that Caleb Lomu has the body type
that you would want for a future offensive tackle in the NFL.
I think he's got a good amount of starting experience.
He is young as just a redshirt sophomore,
but he's been starting for the last two years for, for Utah.
I think he's got really, really good pass blocking grades overall.
The run blocking grades aren't quite there yet for him,
but I think it's because he is one of those younger offensive linemen.
I think he is going to continue to get stronger.
I think the conversation is somewhat similar with Monroe Freeling,
who I felt like was a better pass protector than he was a run blocker.
Monroe Freeling has more natural length to him.
believe he is I'm listing this guys I believe he is six foot seven so I believe that he has that
length there to him thank God I wasn't farming 315 pounds I think it's close between these two guys
but I I would I would go with Caleb Lomu over Moreau freely so let's go let's go offensive tackle
here let's let's let's let's go Caleb Lomu I'm gonna pick him we've got four picks you choose
from this isn't going to be the last offensive line pick especially
because, wow, Monroe Freeling is still there.
That's kind of funny.
I'm not going to pick Monroe Freeling.
But now, see, this is where I might have messed up.
Because can you scroll up for me, Tyler?
Yeah, I mean, I was looking to see if Caden Proctor was still on the board at that point.
He wasn't.
If he was, I probably should have picked Caden Proctor at 28 and then waited for an
offensive line pick here at 38.
but he wasn't on the board,
so I guess it wasn't that much of a mistake.
He went two picks before the Texans at 28.
So I would have thought about Caden Proctor there,
or Caden McDonald there if he was available.
Christian Miller also a really good run defending defensive tackle,
but I probably would have still stuck with Lomu.
So we're all good.
We're all good.
I made the right choice.
I'm happy with this.
I don't have any regrets,
which is a good way to go through life.
Do I go offensive line again?
Somebody said, Jonah Coleman,
I wouldn't take Jonah Coleman this early.
I do like Jonah Coleman,
but I wouldn't take him here at 38.
Man, is like,
is it safety almost the best pick here?
With the way the board has dropped?
Oh, Lee Hunter's still available, though, isn't he?
Oh, man.
I kind of like that a lot.
We just, I had considered defensive tackle there at 28
with Lee Hunter still being here.
And I think there's a world where he gets into the second round,
after a really good senior bowl, I think that it's less likely.
I think back into the first round feels like it's good for them.
Lee Hunter, and then I think Pregnon was still on the board too.
Like if you just want to go, yeah, yeah, yeah, he is still there as well.
And he just go, are we just going right after, right after O-line?
Maybe you just got to do it.
Can I see defensive tackle?
Can you go to defensive tackle?
And I'm going to see who we got a little bit later.
I like those options.
Give me Emmanuel Pregnan.
We're going back to back.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's take Emmanuel Pregnon there.
So we go back to back offensive line.
We go Caleb Lomu, who I think could potentially start for them immediately next season.
And then Pregnon, who I definitely think can start immediately for them next season.
And then, man, I think we go defensive tackle here.
Somebody said Keontek, Scott gives them the most ridiculous secondary.
Yeah, but I think.
that what him and Jalen Petrie do is too, is too much of a little bit of like cannibalizing
those snaps. See, here's where I would, can I see running back? Oh, running back. Sorry,
sorry, sorry. Okay, so I'm thinking about Jonah Coleman. I'm thinking about Emmett Johnson as well.
I'm not as high on Judarian Price as it feels like other people are. Connor is one of the
Connor loves Deerian Price. And I see the athletic potential. I just don't, I don't love the vision as
much. But Jonah Coleman and Emmett Johnson, I think, are really good when it comes to anticipating
having that vision, mistackles force per attempt, all of that. So I'm considering him, well,
either of those two guys. I'm also considering Big Citrus, Dominic Orange. And then the player
that I really want is I want to get the Texans, Sam Hect, the offensive line, the center that I
watched at the Senior Bowl be, in my opinion, one of the best players at the entire event.
I genuinely think that he has risen his stock to. I've got to bump, I've got to bump him up on
the predictive board because I think he, he's got a chance to be the best center in this class.
From what I saw in person at the Senior Bowl, how dominant he was, let's go. Let's go Jonah Coleman.
The question is, do I go D-line?
No, no, no, no.
Let's go Jonah Coleman.
Let's go Jonah Coleman here at, what do we have, 59?
Yeah, let's go Jonah Coleman at 59.
Take the running back.
I like the combination of him and Woody Marks.
And then let's take Sam Hacked, the center from Kansas State,
who he has been starting for the last 25 games for Kansas State.
I think he is, I think he could potentially be a plug-and-play type of a center.
I think he can start in his rookie season.
And I think, okay, every offensive lineman,
it's a little bit of an up and down thing
whenever they're playing for the first time of the NFL.
But this, I mean, to come away in this draft
with Caleb Lomu, Emmanuel Pregnan, Sam Hecht.
I mean, you came away with three starting caliber
offensive linemen, and you got a running back
who might be RB1 for you,
or at the very least, a really nice one-two combination with Woody Marks.
So let's do it,
Tyler. Let's lock it in. Three offensive linemen. Three offensive linemen. There we go.
Somebody said all rookie offensive line. What could go wrong? Probably a lot. But there's a chance that
they might be able to, you know, like Caleb Lomu, maybe he's not starting right away. But I do still
think that he is a future starting offensive tackle for you. Pregnon, I think, can start right
away for you. And then Sam Hect, I think, has the ability to start right away for you.
I would have liked to get a defensive tackle. Like I said, we talked about it in the first
round. We talked about it in the second round with Lee Hunter.
We even talked about it in the third round with Dominique Orange.
I think defensive tackle is still on the table for this team.
But I think the idea of just revamping the offensive line in a similar way to what the New
England Patriots did this past season, it's very, very alluring.
And even if all of those rookie offensive linemen aren't getting the lion's share of the snaps
at the very beginning, you are investing in guys that are worth investing in.
You are investing in offensive linemen that have starting caliber ceiling.
So maybe one or two of these guys are starting right away for you,
but I think all three of them are starters for you at some point in time.
There we go.
There we go.
Texas mock, before we spend the next one, you are the evil wheel is almost 50% of the wheel.
Okay, I will admit it looks.
Yeah, go ahead.
But I think it's because we keep taking off teams.
Is that wrong?
like because it makes it a little like because every you know what I mean like proportion you know what I mean
see now you're getting now you're getting away with it because we are taking away more teams so
technically in a court of law if we were to hook you up to a lie detector test and you were under oath
you'd be like no it got bigger because we were taking teams off of the wheel yeah technically would
be correct and we would not be able to prosecute you right then and there right I'm not going to
jail you're not because I haven't done anything wrong somebody says stop shrinking the evil wheel
It's true.
Before we spin it again, though, got to talk to the people about our game plan of the week.
Our game plan of the week presented by Western and Southern Financial Group,
a game plan to your financial future.
Something that I found when I was going through a lot of the data for our preview show for the Super Bowl,
is that the Seattle Seahawks, specifically running to the left side of the offensive line,
love to run those pole lead plays where they're getting their offensive linemen out and into space.
why you ask?
Because Gray's able has to play,
happens to play on the left side of the line of scrimmage.
They are maximizing who he is as an athlete,
blocking in space,
getting to the sideline,
and that is their highest run blocking concept as a team
because of Gray's able.
I think that leaning into that a handful of times
against New England Patriots is a great way to switch up
when they like to run,
they like to run power mostly between the tackles,
but having that sort of a player
to be a lead blocker for you out towards the sideline,
that's pretty advantageous and a good game plan to lean on.
Just like every team wins starts with a great game plan,
your future should as well.

I swear if the evil wheel is bigger
now that we are coming back from the ad,
I'm going to lose it.
It's the same size. It's the same size.
I think it's the same size.
I think it's the same size.
All right, let's spin it.
Got two marks down.
We got Baltimore Ravens and the Houston, Texas down.
We've got a handful of teams left.
And of course, the evil wheel.
Let's spin it.
It looks smaller to me.
You guys are defending the chef.
Oh yeah, baby, no evil wheel.
So close to the Bengals, but it is the San Francisco 49ers.
So Niners here in this exercise.
Getting a little three-round mock draft here.
Everyone in the chat is booing.
Jalen's saying yes.
Trevor rigged it.
Rigged it for what?
Oh, so it doesn't land on the evil on crustable.
Maybe I did.
Maybe I did.
maybe that's payback for Tyler making it a little bit bigger every single time
we're going to be back for the last one and it's going to be like 80% of the wheel
is going to be the evil wheel which would be hilarious and I yeah but I shouldn't
manifest that let's enter the draft with the San Francisco 49ers who are picking at
27 we'll do a little three round mock draft here for them standard three picks here
for the 49ers to pick it at 27 they're picking at 58 and they're picking at 92 so I think
right off the bat with the 49ers.
I think wide receivers
obviously a need for them because long term
you're looking at a team that
okay, Ricky Pearsall is on this team,
but Joanne Jennings is a free agent.
It looks like Brandon Ayuk
is very obviously going to be on
another team next season.
They have Demarcus Robinson.
Is Demarcus Robinson a free agent?
Actually not sure. Let's see.
Let's see.
No, but Kendrick Boren
and Skymore are both free agents as well.
So I think that they do have a pretty big wide receiver need.
I think offensive line potentially for this team,
although I don't think that it's the biggest need.
A pure pass rusher, I think is a major need for this team,
even with Robert Sala gone.
You've got Rahim Morris now as the offensive,
or the defensive coordinator, excuse me.
And I still think that, actually,
what was the blitz percentage for Rahim Morris?
this past season.
I bet I can look that up.
I wonder how many times he rushed with
more than four.
Passless tendencies.
Let's see.
In the NFL,
this season,
let's see how high the Falcons were in Blitz percentage.
I wonder if it's a little bit skewed with Jalen Walker
and sort of his designation.
The Falcons blitz the fourth most
of any team in the NFL when it comes to overall Blitz percentages at 41.6%.
Where is five-man pass rushes?
Yeah, the Falcons were once again, I think top 10 in the NFL, 66.1% in five-man pass-rush
percentage.
So Rahim Morris was definitely a little bit more aggressive.
Some people in the chat are saying that it was Ulbrick.
I don't think that
Ulbrick is sort of working alone in that regard.
I think that with Rahim Morris
sort of coming up with the game plan as well
and looking at the roster
and seeing where it's best.
I just wondered if the blitz percentage is pretty high.
So I still think that all that to say,
they do need more one-on-one pass-rish winners
from their front four beyond just Nick Bosa
because when Nick Bosa went down this season,
man, it got ugly to try to find anybody
that could really get into the backfield
with regularity on passing downs.
But it does feel as though the Niners under Morris
might be a little bit more willing to send some extra pressure
where Robert Sala really doesn't do a lot of that.
He isn't like doing that with his linebackers.
I think they could potentially have an upgraded safety.
Like I specifically look at Emmanuel McNeil Warren,
who is still on the board here.
I don't think that the Niners would just pick any safety
at any point in the draft.
Like if we get to, if we don't pick Emmanuel McNeill Warren here in the first round,
I don't really think I'd consider safety in rounds two and three.
Not that I wouldn't like the play.
I do like the safety class a lot.
I like the players they're here.
But they have Jaya Brown.
They've got Malik Mustafa.
Those guys can play.
It's just do they feel like there's an upgrade there?
Somebody's asking is corner in play here for them?
So they drafted up in stout.
Di Amador-Lonor can play inside and out.
They have Renardo Green.
Chase Lucas played well in the slot when he was asked to fill in.
I felt like, so probably not.
They just dread.
Now, because of injuries, their linebacker group looked really thin last year,
but they did just draft Nick Martin.
So I'm not so sure they're going to,
I'm not so sure that they're going to draft a linebacker even for like depth
purposes. You know, you wouldn't do that here number 27 anyways, but I think it's,
I think it's McNeil warned somebody that we would think about pass rushers. I mean,
is Concepcion just the pick? You know, we started off talking about him as a wide receiver
need, and I think he makes a ton of sense for this team for what Kyle Shanahan likes to do.
We've talked about him as a perfect fit for the Niners before. It's almost just like,
hey, do we explore all the options? And that's sort of what we're doing with here in the first
round. Messadora, I think, would immediately be the second best pass rusher on the team,
to be honest with you. Kind of depends how immediate they feel they are in their winning window.
Can I, can I see, I think, can I see wide receiver, edge rusher, and safety?
Because wide receiver, I mean, I don't know if it's guarantee on the simulator because of
where he's ranked. But I think with Chris Bell coming off of the ACL injury, I mean, I think
the Niners might be able to Chris Bell at 58 and they'd feel pretty good.
about that. I also think about
Zachariah Branch as a target for this team.
Perhaps at 90.
Maybe he goes a little bit higher than that.
But, you have a Skyler Bell for this team as well.
I just don't think you have to pick wide receiver
if you're the Niners in the first round.
Let's take, I kind of want to,
I kind of want to see what it's like for them to take
McNeil Warren as an upgraded safety.
Dylan Thineman is there as well.
I would think about Dylan Thinemann, too.
The chat's right.
Sassy said, all right, we're going offensive tackle.
Would be classic me to do that.
Gabacus is, I love him as a football player,
but I think that I'd take Messador
and I'd take the safeties over Gabacus
at this point for the team.
Okay, let's explore what a draft would look like
for the 49ers if they went safety.
Chat, I'm torn between two guys that I like a lot in Dylan Thiena and Emmanuel McNeil Warren.
Does the chat feel strongly one way or another?
Cast your votes.
Let's see.
Who do you think is the better player here?
For the 49ers or just in general.
I'd love to see what the chat thinks about this.
Getting a lot of early McNeil Warren.
Peter's saying Bishop Fitzgerald.
That's a good point, Peter.
We didn't think about that.
I probably should have.
I think that Emmanuel McNeil Warren's winning in a runaway here.
But we do we do see some love for Thinnaman, who I think is within this range as well.
Let's go with McNeil Warren.
A little bit bigger of a safety, if I remember correctly.
It's just such a playmaker the past two seasons for them.
His best plays are fantastic.
Let's go McNeil Warren here.
And then what I'm going to do is I'm going to look at pass rusher next.
Let's go edge rusher.
Damn.
Damn, we got sniped.
I thought we'd have a little bit better options than this.
All right, can you show me wide receiver?
I might go.
I might pick Skyler Bell here.
I'm deciding between Skylar Bell and Zachariah Branch, to be honest.
I think Zachariah Branch is obviously more of like that,
hey, you didn't get Casey Concepcion in the first round.
You can get a player like this who's got a lot of yak potential.
had his best year as a true wide receiver this past season,
just like Concepcion did.
He's young, he's a true junior.
He's got that punt returnability to him as well.
I think Skylar Bell is just a better route runner.
He's a better receiver overall.
He's a better downfield receiver.
Fantastic catch percentage.
I don't know if I'm totally on Zachariah Branch going quite this high.
I think the league is probably in on him going this high.
But I do have Bell.
ranked higher and I do like Skylar Bell quite a bit let's take let's take
Skyler Bell Brandon saying no love for CJ Daniels I like CJ Daniels I don't know if
he's going above Skylar Bell or not I was I but I was a fan of him this past season
I think he could be on the table as well but I think Skyler stock is a little bit higher than
CJ Daniels could have certainly had him in this conversation but let's go Skyler bell here at
58.
And then there was a pass rusher that was that I had a feeling was still going to be there for
them at 92 that I'm going to be picking here.
Well, actually, we've got, we've got three good options all right next to each other
that I would be considering here.
Malachi Lawrence, not named Tucker, and then Quintavius Hutchins.
I think all three of these guys have the juice that you want as pass rushers.
Hutchins, I was really impressed with
with his first step explosiveness,
how he was able to get off the ball,
the bend that he played with,
watching him at the senior bowl
and going through those practices.
I mean, he is somebody that is,
I don't think is ready to play at the NFL right away,
but I think he's got a ton of potential
as a speed rusher.
Not a him Tucker is super productive this past season.
You see the passers grades, unbelievable.
28.4% passers winning percentage
is stupid. That's crazy good. But he's a little bit on the smaller side. Now they're okay with that,
I think, because they brought in Bryce Huff to be that and he wasn't able to be that for them this
year. He kind of fills that Bryce Huff roll a little bit better. You hope in a more consistent way.
So I think about him. And then if you want more of a traditional sort of hand in the dirt type of
edge rusher opposite Nick Bosa, I think you think about Malkai Lawrence. The last thing
is that the chat's shouting out tight end as well. Let's look at tight end. Who's left at tight end here?
Yeah, I mean, I could be in on Sam Roush. I could be in on Marlon Klein, but I think I would rather
Nyer's got a fourth round pick, right? Let's see. Let's see. They do have a fourth round pick.
I think I'm a little bit more comfortable taking tight end in the fourth round. I mean,
it's toss up, right? I mean, like you take a pass or you can take a tight end, whoever you feel
better about. But I just let's go, let's go, let's go pass rusher. And I think I'm,
I think I'm going to go with Notame Tucker here. I think I'm going to go with the smaller
school guy who is still really impressive at the senior bowl, even with a jump up in competition
this past year. Like I said, he was, he was an absolute speed demon. And he's somebody who knows
how to get after the quarterback. And I think that, um, him being a little bit more of a plug and
play type of a guy and filling that role that they had for Bryce Huff in a little bit better of a
way. And I think that this leans into if Rahim Morris still wants to do a lot of blitzing,
you're getting extra guys on the field who have the ability to pass rush from a blitzing
perspective from like a two point stance. This is actually the player that I like the most for them.
So let's go with not name Tucker here. And then I think, you know, everybody who's shouting out
tight end names. I feel like there's still going to be a lot of tight ends to, to be had in the
fourth round. So I think that
not Aem Tucker, well, I think that he
probably gets an F because we picked him at 92 and he's
58, 158 on the
consensus board. I need to
update that because I think it's much, much, much more
realistic that he is going to get drafted.
Maybe not in the top 100, but certainly
around the top 100 within that conversation.
So it's a bad grade here from the simulator
because I've got him so much lower on the consensus board.
But I do think that he's a scheme fit for them there.
So there's a little bit of a look of what a potential
Niners draft could look like.
if they prioritize like a difference making safety.
So that safety in the first round,
you're getting a surefire,
contributing wide receiver in Skylar Bell,
and then you're getting a versatile designated
pass rusher type from Notame Tucker.
People are saying that Questia Daphomensa
is creating the mock draft simulator.
He might be.
I got to see.
I'm headed to Cincinnati this weekend
because we're doing a live stream
for the Super Bowl on the,
on the PFF YouTube channel.
And I'll check the basement.
I'll see if he's down there,
grinding away with these mock drafts.
And if he is, I'll report back to you guys.
Okay, let's, uh, it's 50%.
Don't do not.
I heard you unmute the mic.
I didn't say any.
I'm just, I'm just ready to spin it.
That's all I was going to say.
I'm ready to spin it.
Wait, Garrett Greenlee is in the chat.
Shout out football analysis.
Trevor, can you do a Vikings mock draft
where you trade the late third for Devandre sweat?
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure that the Titans would be doing that.
But I do like the attitude.
I do like the manifest.
The Titans fans probably don't.
But okay,
so we've got,
how many teams we got left?
Seven?
We got seven more teams that we got.
And then, of course,
the evil wheel,
which has 50% of the wheel now at this point.
Let's spin it.
Let's see what we go.
It's going to be funny if it doesn't land on the evil wheel.
Oh, I think we're good.
Wow. The Indianapolis Colts.
This one's going to be a quick one because the Colts don't have a first round pick.
They have a second round pick? I think they do. Or do they not?
Let's pull it up. I know they don't have a first round pick, obviously. That's going to the J.
So they have 47. So they have a second round pick. Yeah. Yeah. So three round mock draft here for the Indianapolis Colts.
Let's start her off. Man, we got a we got a long way to go.
okay so they do they have 47 and they have 78 this will obviously be a little bit quicker of one
because we don't have a first round pick and so uh you know what we'll do another spin folks
we'll do another spin after that um the colts quarterback obviously you need unfortunately
potentially defensive tackle because of how bad it looked when deforest buckner was out
they're going to lose
Alec Pierce
linebacker I think is a need for them as well
Coroner you obviously invested
all the draft capital and getting sauce
so you feel good about Charbarius Ward
when he's fully healthy
oh excuse me
when he's fully healthy
you have sauce gardener you got Kenny Moore
you got safetys you like so
I feel like it's uh well man
there's probably not a linebacker to
oh Jake Golda could be could be good for them
somebody said Ward's going to retire
Is Ward actually going to retire?
Oh, who said we're losing Alex Pierce?
That's true.
Yeah, you could resign him.
I just think that he's going to get a massive bag on the open market.
But maybe they don't.
I'm sure they wouldn't love, they would love to retain him.
So at 47, I'd be taking Trinidad-Chambliss here, if Trinidad-Chamblez is in this class.
Did I remove him from the simulator?
No, he's still here.
Now, we can operate.
one of two ways. We can operate
with him in the class and if he is,
I'd be taking him at 47. I would
love for him to be the option for the
Colts at 47.
But if we're, he is, he is
fighting like hell. He's going
to war, as Connor said,
in the courtroom
to not have to be in the
NFL draft and he wants to play one more year of college
football. So, let's
act like he's not in this draft.
Can I see defensive tackles
and linebackers?
You know what?
I think I'm going all Texas Tech here.
I think we're taking Lee Hunter
and then I'm taking Jacob Rodriguez.
Let's do it.
Shoot, I mean, we could have gone all Cincinnati as well.
Could take taking the Godfather
and then we could have taken Jake Golda.
Probably in the opposite order.
But yeah, Jacob Rodriguez, yes.
I mean, this, obviously
they have a quarterback need,
but there you go, Quessie.
Appreciate it. B plus.
Yeah, I think this is,
I think this is a home run for them.
Like I said, their defensive line
and their interior defensive line specifically
when DeForest Buckner was not there,
was not what it needed to be.
I know they have added to him.
Added to Miwa adabwara,
but he is more of like that
edge kind of interior defensive lineman player.
They have never,
Neville Gallemore as well,
but is he an unrestricted free agent?
He might be.
Let's see.
He might be a free agent anyways.
Oh.
Lee Hunter was so, so dominant when he was at the Senior Bowl.
He's getting better as a pass rush or the passers win percentage is a little bit lower,
but you just need a much higher floor when it comes to run defense.
And that's what Lee Hunter has been over the last two years,
first at UCF and this past year at Texas Tech.
And then Jacob Rodriguez, just the instincts that he has to be a centerpiece type of a player for you,
you have Zaire Franklin as well.
Okay, actually, yeah, yeah, let's see.
Neville Gowmore is a free agent for them this year.
Buddy Johnson is a free agent for them.
So a Deft linebacker.
They're losing Samson, Ebucom, Quitty Pay.
Braden Smith as well, I think that's kind of underrated.
But they do have Jalen Travis.
So, yeah, I feel great about this.
I feel like these are the best.
I think these are the best options for them here,
getting Lee Hunter and Jacob Rodriguez,
one of the better playmaking,
linebackers and just one the smartest linebackers that we have in the class.
So there we go.
All Texas Tech.
Part of the best defensive, part of the best defense in the country.
Now both of them going to Indianapolis.
If we don't get the evil wheel at this point, I think you're just going to be mad.
I mean, well, I, it's just all chance.
So.
Sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's all chance.
You just never know.
You never know with this.
Yeah, we'll do one more because the Colts only had those two picks there.
So we will do one more for you guys.
we'll give you a little bit of a bonus.
Let's spin the wheel, baby.
What have we got?
Let's see if we can finally give the chat
what they want landing on the evil wheel.
Oh, what do you know?
What do you know?
Wow.
Wow, that's crazy.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
That's wild.
I can't, I can't believe we landed on the evil wheel.
Well, if we land on the evil wheel, you know what that means.
We got to go to the evil wheel.
Okay. So what do we have here?
Heid reveal!
That wasn't me. That was an addict. I cannot lie.
Gotta give credit where credits do.
Three round speed run mock draft?
No, just the third round. Just the third round.
Okay.
Speed run.
Okay. Can we set that up? Can we do that?
Yeah, we can, can we?
I don't think we can.
I don't think we can only do the third round.
I think the simulator
has to,
we'll make us pick every round.
I don't think we can.
Let me make a couple calls.
Let me make a couple calls.
Okay, okay.
You're showing your screen, by the way.
Yeah, let me make a couple calls.
Okay.
All right, there we go.
And then what?
Height reveals insane.
And then what's this last one?
First round mock draft speed run.
Bad takes only?
That's right.
So it's just like the worst mock you've ever seen.
Yeah, basically.
Okay.
All right, let's spin it.
What's on evil or wheel?
Well, we don't know.
We might not find out.
Yeah, we might not find out.
Industry sources, somebody said.
Oh, boy, we're going to speed run a first round mock draft with bad takes.
I don't make the rules.
All right.
So speed run within the evil wheel, we landed on first round mock draft speed run bad takes only.
So none of you are allowed to record this.
None of you are allowed to clip this.
There is no out of context things that you are allowed to do here on this show.
I'm trusting you guys.
Yeah, for sure, that'll happen.
First round, speed around mock draft.
Let's go.
Okay, number one overall to the Las Vegas Raiders is Diego Pavia.
Diego Pavia is going number one overall.
Was a Heisman Trophy finalist this past season.
One of the most must-watch players in all of college football.
he played just to bring Vanderbilt to the relevance that he that he was able to do over the last
two years was unbelievable.
You see the PFF numbers right there.
They speak for themselves.
So Diego Pavia very obviously going number one overall to the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Jets.
What's a bad take here for the Jets?
Jeremiah Love, I think probably makes the most sense for them here as a bad.
take, they already kind of like had a good running back in Brees Hall, which maybe they will still
have, but who knows after free agency. But I think that they could be a great one-two combo. And
when you have so many holes to fill on the team, whenever you have the ability to go,
you really invest in the running back position at, uh, with salary cap and with draft capital,
um, you got to do it. So Jeremiah, I love at number two. Arizona Cardinals at number three.
Um, what would be a bad take for the Cardinals?
at number three. Probably, probably, man, what's the worst? What's the worst? What's the bad take for the
Cardinals? Probably a wide receiver, to be honest with you. Oh, no, Sadiq. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You already have,
you already have, you already have, you already have, you already have Tray McBride. So Kenyon Sadiq,
the freak athlete, obviously, that's where you've got to go here with him going number three
overall. The Tennessee Titans, Fernando Mendoza, because I have a higher grade on Fernando
Mendoza than I did on Cam Ward.
So anytime you have the opportunity to upgrade at the quarterback position,
you obviously have to do it there.
With the New York Giants, who would be bad for the Giants?
Who would be bad for the Giants?
Can we scroll down a little bit further?
Let's see.
Probably, I know that this is not a, I, oh, Keldrick Falk.
Let's go Keldrick Falk here.
Yeah, yeah, Keldrick Falk.
because the edge rusher from Auburn,
I feel like he makes a ton of sense for them in a way that does not make any sense at all,
because not really a great pass rusher.
They've already overloaded on that position anyways,
but yeah, I think that that would be a bad take there.
Cleveland Brown's at number six.
I would say Trinidad Chambers,
but he might be the best quarterback on the team.
So probably not, actually.
who's the bad take here for the Cleveland Browns.
Brown's also kid Poppa.
Yeah, Cade Club Nick.
Let's go Kate Club Nick.
Was seen as potentially QB1 in this class before the season.
And I just think a great game manager,
obviously somebody who plays the game at a very high IQ level.
It just needs some development.
And I think that he'd form a really great trio of competition there,
Cleveland and you can never have too much competition at the quarterback position there.
For the Washington commanders, yeah, keep scrolling.
Let's keep scrolling.
Who's the worst pick for the commanders?
They have so many needs that it's actually hard to do this.
Dude, they have so many needs on this team.
I would like all of these players for them.
Oh, Akeem Messador.
That's actually funny.
Yeah, Akeem Messador, because they are the oldest team in the last.
league and they will be drafting one of the oldest prospects in the entire class.
That's actually pretty funny.
Yes, that's a bad take there with Messador.
The Saints at number eight, Garrett Nussmeyer, of course.
Yeah, because his dad was the offense coordinator for the New Orleans Saints.
And it's just a battle between him and Shuck that's going to be a stacked battle against
Tyler Shuck because, again, Garrett Nussmeier, Doug.
Well, Doug is still on the staff, right?
Is he still in the staff?
He's still on the staff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So Nussmeyer is basically just being handed the job then at that point.
The Kansas City Chiefs, that's a bad pick for the Chiefs.
We're going Jonah Coleman.
We're going Jonah Coleman here, the running back, who is,
you already kind of complain about not having a ton of explosiveness for the running back position.
And Jonah Coleman, I don't think has a lot of explosiveness.
And so probably, yeah, probably.
probably frustrating there for them.
The Cincinnati Bengals,
the Bengals need everything.
Oh, probably a wide receiver.
That's probably the funniest.
Let's go Jordan Tyson,
just because of the injury history,
although that is hilarious to have all three
of those wide receivers on the same team.
The Miami Dolphins at number 11.
What's a bad pick for the dolphins?
Can I see guards?
Can I see guards for the dolphins?
No, these guys would actually make sense for this team.
another left eqb
oh yeah
Casey Concepcion
well no no no
no no no no wait wait wait wait wait
wait wait wait that could actually help them
no no no no no
actually that's a bad take yeah yeah yeah
no no no no okay yeah yeah that's fine
that works that works that works
the Dallas Cowboys
would be the worst pick for the Cowboys
would be the worst pick for the Cowboys
probably another wide receiver
let's go
probably Denzel Boston, actually, the guys that are left.
Because then, no, actually, he'd be pretty good.
Now, probably Chris Bell.
Chris Bell, because he's hurt.
And then also, they don't have a wide receiver need at all if they resign George Pickens.
The Los Angeles Rams,
I'm going to say Sunny Stiles because you guys roasted me for picking Sunny Stiles
to the Los Angeles Rams like two months ago.
And now it would actually potentially be a good pick for them there.
and I got roasted so hard for it being a bad take.
I'm going to unironically pick him here at number 13.
The Ravens at 14.
Who would the Ravens take at 14?
That would be bad.
Probably a tight end, right?
Who do we got a tight end?
Michael Trigg.
Let's take Michael Trigg here.
Who likes to play making tight end?
The Buccaneers at 15.
Oh, this one's obviously got to be another wide receiver as well.
Cardinal Tate.
We're taking Cardinal Tate to the Bucks.
Yeah.
Another wide receiver.
right after taking a Mekebuka.
The Jets.
Who do we take for the Jets?
Jeremiah Love.
Who would be bad for the Jets?
Who would be bad for the Jets?
Oh, probably offensive line.
Yeah, Caleb Lomu, I think, would be pretty bad for them.
I think that that would probably be a terrible take.
Yeah, is Caleb Lomu.
Because they already have their two offensive tackle spots.
Caleb Lomu is more of a developmental offensive tackle anyways,
and he probably only plays,
and he probably only can play tackle.
He probably can't play guard.
Fano can actually play guard.
Oh, people are saying price.
Yeah, that's funny.
Give me Judarian Price.
That's actually genius.
You guys are right.
Anytime you could take a one-two combination of Jeremiah Love and Judarian Price.
I mean, you simply have to do it.
So my only hope is that they also re-signed Breece Hall in this regard.
The Chet's ticket to running back.
That's how you use draft capital, maybe.
The Lions would be bad for the Lions.
It would be bad for the Lions.
I feel like people get mad when I pick corner for them.
Oh, let's go.
I mean, this one isn't like the worst pick that you've ever seen,
but I would think that it'd be,
Jermon McCoy,
we've unironically made this pick for them,
but Lions fans correctly have pointed out,
like, hey, their secondary was really beat up last year
and they were really hurt,
and now you're going to pick a guy who hasn't played in a year
because of a torn ACL.
So let's actually take,
let's actually take Jermon McCoy here in the Lions,
which actually could work out.
but I just think that a little bit of an OD you guys were calling us out on that one the last time.
Minnesota Vikings, number 18.
What's a bad take here for the Vikings?
Who'd be a bad take for the Vikings?
Beck and 9 QB battle here.
Oh, another wide receiver.
Yeah, probably another wide receiver.
But you just, you know, anytime you got a chance to pick Jeremy Bernard over Mackay Lemon and Denzel Boston, I think you got to do it.
So, yeah, let's take Jeremy Bernard here at number 18 for the Vikings.
The Carolina Panthers number 19, probably wide receiver again.
Well, no, actually, running back?
Would running back be the worst take?
Probably, yeah.
Who we got a running back?
Nick Singleton, anytime you have the ability to pick that kind of athleticism
at the running back position.
Yeah, I think that that's probably the way you got to.
Or quarterback, where's quarterback?
People were saying they could draft another small quarterback as competition.
Yeah, but Trinidad is actually good.
It's a problem.
No, no, no, we're going Nick Singleton.
You got to go Nick Singleton.
You got to up the athleticism in the backfield.
You can never have too many running backs in today's age.
Who did the Cowboys take at 12?
Who we give him at 12?
Chris Bell.
Ah, yes.
Man, who's a bad pick for the Cowboys?
I think Caden Proctor might be a bad pick for them.
Tyler Van Dyke?
All right, fine, sure.
Yeah, that's fine.
Yeah, Tyler Van Dyke.
Is this the only Tyler in the draft?
I guess it is.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah, sure.
give an oath to you, Tyler.
He played for the Cowboys here.
Tyler Van Dyke, there it goes.
I had no idea he was at SMU now.
Haven't watched him in like two years.
Pittsburgh Steelers at 21.
You know what?
You know what?
For the Steelers at 21,
I'm actually going to take Ty Simpson.
And the reason why I'm going to take Ty Simpson,
funny enough is because John Ledier texted me
after the last mock draft episode that we did.
And he's like, I swear,
I swear if they take Ty Simpson, like you guys said,
that'll just be the cherry on top of a terrible offseason
that they've already had.
So this one's for you, John.
I'll take a Thai Simpson.
The Chargers at 22, which offensive tackles are available?
Which strictly only offensive tackles are available?
Monroe Freeling.
Got to be Monroe Freeling.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Specifically offensive tackle.
You can never have too many offensive tackles.
And I think that's a point that you've got to nail home.
The Eagles at 23.
It was a bad pick for the Eagles.
Who is a bad pick for the Eagles?
I don't know.
Running back?
I guess.
Another undersized edge rusher?
That's actually kind of funny.
Can I see edge rushers?
I mean, our Mason Thomas is probably who I would go with.
More white dvys.
Okay, all right, Dylan Thineman.
Give him Dylan Thineman.
Go ahead.
The Cleveland Browns is 20.
Who would I give them, who did they give the Cleveland Browns of six?
I think Kate Klubnick.
Yeah, yeah.
Somebody said that no, Theteman's a good pick.
That's true.
Browns need Dion Sanders.
Need another rookie QB.
Let's see how many QBs we have.
What do we got a quarterback here for them?
Oh, Drew Aller.
I mean, just all the talent in the world.
I mean, I still think there's something in there for him.
So you got to get somebody with Premier Arm talent.
I think that that's a really good call there.
Chicago at 25.
Probably, probably, is wide receiver the most redundant pick for them?
Or is it tight end?
Oh, Chris Brasel?
Yeah, I would not like that if they pick Chris Brasel.
Everybody keeps saying Carson Beck.
Let's go to tight end.
Let's see tight end.
Who we got to tight end, actually?
Let's go Max Claire.
Max Claire.
We got to get tight end three on this team.
That's really what you don't think about.
Not enough teams emphasize tight end three.
So I think we've got to get tight end three here on this team.
For the Buffalo Bills, we're going to go with Elijah Surat, the wide receiver from
from Indiana.
Because when you have a separation problem at wide receiver,
you've just simply got to pick another one.
wide receiver who really struggles to separate.
San Francisco 49ers at 27.
Who's another, can I go to edge rushers?
Who's an edge rusher who keeps scrolling down?
Keep scrolling.
Let's keep scrolling.
Tyreeks Sapp.
I think, yeah, I think they really liked what they saw from Michael Williams this past
season and Tyreeks Sapp being another heavy-handed run defense edge rusher with a single-digit
passers win percentage.
I think you got to be able to be in on that.
The Houston Texans.
The Houston Texans.
No, actually, I'm giving the Houston Texans Rubin Bain here.
Why?
Because that's quite literally hilarious if they were to get Rubin Bain with the defensive line that they already have.
The Los Angeles Rams, I had, who did I have them taking?
Oh, Sunny Stiles.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's a good one.
What's a redundant Rams need?
Oh, give me Derek Moore.
Because it's just the same type of edge rush.
They just drafted.
They just drafted Josiah Stewart.
So you're bringing the band back together.
The second wave of pass rusher for the Rams is Derek Moore and Josiah Stewart like they were when they were at Michigan behind Byron Young and Jared Verse.
So I just think, I don't know if that's a bad take actually because I think Derek Moore is a good football player.
The Denver Broncos, everyone is screaming for Carson Beck.
Are they screaming for Carson Beck for the Broncos specifically?
Oh, let's go.
We're going to go Caden Proctor because he's going to play a tight end for them.
Because you're going to throw him the football.
He's going to be their Joker player.
He's going to line up in the slot.
Just think of how unbelievable he's going to be as a blocker to seal the edges for them,
especially when they're running to the outside.
Not seal the edges, but when he's a, when they're running to the outside,
think of the impact blocker that he's going to be while also being able to be a great
red zone option for them as a receiver as well.
He's the true Joker type that Sean Payton.
has been waiting for.
The New England Patriots at 31.
What's redundant for the Patriots?
Beck to the Pats is kind of funny.
DeAngelo Ponds?
Oh, hold on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
DeAngelo Pons, good football player, guys.
Easy.
What kicker do we have left?
Yeah.
You know what?
I've often said this.
You just, you can't have too many great punters.
So we're going to go with Jack Stonehouse,
who's quite literally the last ranked player
that we have on the PFF mock draft simulator.
board. We're going to go Jack Stonehouse here.
And then at number 32 for the Seattle Seahawks, of course, if they win the Super Bowl and
Sam Donald is MVP and he's riding high.
I mean, you can't, you can't, there's no such thing as being, you know, planning too far into
the future.
So obviously we're going with Carson Beck.
There we go.
Yeah, somebody's calling me out tight.
What kickers do we have left?
There we go, folks.
That is a speed run mock draft.
Bad takes only.
