1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,120 Welcome back to the Buffalo Bread podcast. 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:06,440 JJ here and with us tonight, a special tradition, 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,160 a tradition like no other. 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,320 Friends of the Bills, not Friends of the Pod, 5 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,560 AFC East three round mock draft. 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,840 We have Steve representing the Miami Dolphins, 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,720 Brandon representing the New England Patriots, 8 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,320 and sadly Jared couldn't make it, 9 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,280 so Dan will be representing the New York Jets, 10 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,960 the New Jersey Jets, if we're honest. 11 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:30,080 We're gonna do three rounds, trades eligible, 12 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,280 and to kick us off here, 13 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,920 I'm going to ask Steve, our Miami Dolphins GM, 14 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,600 to introduce himself again to the pod. 15 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:41,480 It is April 22nd. 16 00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:42,720 We are just a few days away 17 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,360 from the first round on Thursday, 18 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,680 and let's get this thing going, Steve. 19 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:48,520 Great. 20 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,360 Good evening, everybody. 21 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,720 Thank you, JJ and Dan, for inviting me back again this year. 22 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,520 Been a Miami Dolphins fan for my entire life, 23 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,800 and the time is now. 24 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,320 It's a win now scenario for the Miami Dolphins, 25 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,840 and you see that chipping chips can be won in the trenches, 26 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,520 and this draft is gonna prove it for the Dolphins. 27 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:13,760 Until you guys draft, 28 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,920 save your worthy with your first overall pick 29 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:16,760 in the first round, 30 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,080 because McDaniel needs speed on that offense. 31 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,880 You guys aren't gonna be able to resist. 32 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,720 I know. 33 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,040 Brandon. 34 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:25,960 How's it going, guys? 35 00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:28,720 Thanks for having me back again this year. 36 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,000 A little more humbled than I was last year. 37 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,400 Now that the Patriots have scored the fewest amount of points 38 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,320 of all 32 NFL teams, but happy to be here. 39 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,880 And Dan, give us a primer on your jets. 40 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,400 JJ, there are a lot of needs 41 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,640 that the New Jersey Jets have coming into this year's draft. 42 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,080 No more prominent to me than punter. 43 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,480 So I will be looking early and often 44 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,520 at that key special teams position, 45 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,640 particularly with the stop-dent pick. 46 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,160 No, I'm gonna play it straight for our friend, Jared, here. 47 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,400 We talked in case you didn't get a chance to hear it 48 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,000 a couple of months back, 49 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,800 and the immediate aftermath of the Chiefs winning 50 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,040 yet another Super Bowl, 51 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,200 we did our first run, 52 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,360 a round of friends of the pod, not friends of the Bills, 53 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,400 and Jared humbly went first there. 54 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,840 And he really did a meticulous job 55 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,240 kind of laying out what the Jets needed. 56 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,720 And I'm gonna kind of follow his game plan 57 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:28,560 that he laid out then. 58 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,480 So hopefully it's gonna be a good, 59 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,120 but not too good draft for the New York Aaron Rodgers. 60 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,240 Excellent. 61 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,120 Let's this thing off. 62 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,040 Dan is gonna be running our board here. 63 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,520 So you're gonna expect to hear him popping in and out 64 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:43,840 as we direct these picks 65 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,880 and move down through this image. 66 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,720 All right, so for everybody listening at home, 67 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,720 we are drafting using the PFF mock draft simulator. 68 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,840 There's a lot of good mock draft Sims out there. 69 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,440 We simply prefer PFF 70 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,640 because it allows for some pretty reasonable trade-ups 71 00:03:01,640 --> 00:03:04,600 that really do mimic the real-life situations 72 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,040 that we think we're gonna face 73 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,640 in the draft itself here in the next couple of days. 74 00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:12,720 And it also gives a variety of kind of tweaking options. 75 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,960 We pretty much play all of the settings here, 76 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,200 right along the middle of the board, 77 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,520 except randomness. 78 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,120 We tend to tune down a little bit 79 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,280 to give you the listeners the most realistic kind of outcomes 80 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,120 that we think will be available on the board 81 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,840 for each of these four AFC East teams. 82 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,840 As JJ mentioned, we are allowing trades both up and down. 83 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,960 I'll be managing the board 84 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,920 in addition to managing the Jets. 85 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,360 Brandon will be picking for his AFC East team 86 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,280 we'll be picking for his AFC East, 87 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,520 former AFC East great New England Patriots. 88 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,560 And then we've got Steve drafting for the Miami Dolphins. 89 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,840 Three rounds and three rounds only 90 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,440 to see what we can get done here. 91 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,760 Are you guys ready to go? 92 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,000 I see thumbs up across the board. 93 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,200 All right. 94 00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,920 So we are gonna go ahead 95 00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:02,520 and we're gonna hop into the draft simulator here. 96 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,280 Now for those of you listening at home, 97 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,400 we've got this speed set to super slow 98 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,720 to allow for a couple of things. 99 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,200 One, the ability to trade up and pause the draft 100 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,120 if anyone is interested in doing so. 101 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,200 But two, we really wanna debate and talk about 102 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,680 what the impact of these potential picks could be. 103 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,920 JJ and I have been in our bag in draft season 104 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,560 for the past few months now. 105 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,560 And this is gonna give us a chance to dive deeply 106 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,160 into some prospects who are probably not attainable 107 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,040 for the bills, but will have an impact in the AFC East 108 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,040 should they go to one of our rivals. 109 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:35,520 So if you guys are ready, 110 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,760 we are gonna get it started here. 111 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:42,600 All right. 112 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,240 And no surprise, Chicago Bears go QB. 113 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,600 Washington commanders also go QB. 114 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,280 So Brandon, both Caleb Williams and Drake May 115 00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:53,120 off the board here for you. 116 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,280 And your New England Patriots here with pick three. 117 00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:59,600 The world, however, my friend is your oyster 118 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,240 with tons of blue trick prospects available. 119 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,280 And you also have five trade offers for this pick as well. 120 00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:08,320 Brandon, where do you wanna start here, my friend? 121 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,280 I can filter all these by position 122 00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:11,480 so you can have a look at the players 123 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,760 that are on the big board for a particular position 124 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,960 in either you have or I can pull up your trades. 125 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,880 What do you want me to do? 126 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,720 Can you start by pulling up the trades 127 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,040 because I think that's the way that I'm leaning right now. 128 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,840 And let me know what the best offer is. 129 00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:26,760 Interesting. 130 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,720 So you've got a trade here for number five 131 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:35,320 is the first pick here from the Los Angeles Chargers. 132 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,800 After that, the New York Giants are interested 133 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,800 in trading up with you from pick six to pick three. 134 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,280 You've got the Seattle Seahawks 135 00:05:43,280 --> 00:05:45,760 who wanna come up from 16 to six. 136 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,200 The Ravens wanna come up from 30. 137 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,720 And then you've got the Cleveland Browns 138 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,280 who don't have a first round pick this year. 139 00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:52,920 They're picking in the second round 140 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:54,480 thanks to the DeSean Watson trade 141 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,440 that just keeps on giving. 142 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,040 So they wanna trade up all the way from 54 to three 143 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,160 which I don't think has been done in NFL history. 144 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,920 The amount of capital that it would take to go from there 145 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,320 to a top 10 pick is unreal to me. 146 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,920 So Brandon, what do you wanna evaluate here first? 147 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,080 Now how this works is you can select 148 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,040 the team you wanna trade with. 149 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,200 You will work the compensation that you think is fair. 150 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,560 And then we'll take a couple of cracks, 151 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,360 four cracks to be specific at making a trade. 152 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,600 If the trade is rejected on the simulator 153 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,000 four times in a row, then the trade is dead 154 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,360 and you gotta pick a player. 155 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:36,360 Okay, all right, so I'm interested in this fifth pick 156 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,240 from the chargers. 157 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,000 So what do I have to give up to make that possible? 158 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,920 Well, let's see. 159 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,000 So I'm right down here and this is great podcasting 160 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,840 for all the folks at home that are audio only. 161 00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:49,600 Right here, percentage trade acceptance on both sides 162 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,240 once teams add picks. 163 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,560 So you want the five pick, four, the three pick. 164 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,400 And this is a lopsided pick. 165 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,480 So you're gonna wanna throw something else in there. 166 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,800 So you've got a second rounder at 37. 167 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,280 You've got the ability to trade 168 00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:04,400 for a future first rounder from them as well. 169 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,520 You could also select a player. 170 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,840 May I humbly suggest also asking for their 2025 171 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,800 first round pick and see what that does. 172 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,920 Yes, let's see what that does. 173 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,760 83% chance to be accepted. 174 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,600 My friend, I think you could also maybe throw 175 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,600 in a third round pick this year too. 176 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,440 Wanna try that? 177 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,480 This 69th? 178 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:24,320 Yep. 179 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,320 Let's see what happens. 180 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,120 Goes all the way down to 39%. 181 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,200 Not impossible to get it by, but still. 182 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,000 And I think the reason here is because you're really 183 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,600 trading a high premium pick for a high premium pick. 184 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,560 Interesting that they wanna draft up this high 185 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,040 with the QB in lock. 186 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,360 My guess is they want Marvin Harris and Junior 187 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,560 before the Cardinals have a chance to draft. 188 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,920 So go ahead and hit offer trade and see what happens. 189 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,760 Okay. 190 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,400 And you have an accepted trade. 191 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,720 So the trade on the books right now is New England 192 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:56,880 giving up the three. 193 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,080 They get the five and 69 this year 194 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,680 and they get a future first round pick 195 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,800 from the Los Angeles Chargers. 196 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,680 All right, so resuming the draft, 197 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,720 let's see what they end up doing with this. 198 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,280 Malik neighbors. 199 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,080 Man. 200 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,960 And then Marvin Harris and Junior here 201 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,480 going to the Cardinals at four. 202 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,440 So now you are back on the clock here. 203 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:19,960 You still have Roma Dunes a here. 204 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,120 You still have Joe Alt, 205 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,120 who is the premier tackle on this draft. 206 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,720 You got a lot of options here 207 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,200 and you also have some trade back potential as well. 208 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,800 Still here at pick five. 209 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,600 What do you wanna do here, Brandon? 210 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,680 I really think we need that help at tackle. 211 00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:38,480 There's a lot of talent in this class 212 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,080 at wide receiver and quarterback. 213 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,760 So what I wanna do here is take Joe Alt with us this 214 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,560 and see where we go from there. 215 00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:49,400 Joe. 216 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,240 All right. 217 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,520 So our first official pick is in 218 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,000 and Joe Alt is making his way 219 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,640 to the New England Patriots. 220 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,280 JJ, I personally hate that pick 221 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,080 because it's really good. 222 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:08,160 And you could argue that at that spot, 223 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,960 Alt might be a little overvalued, 224 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,480 but when you look at how decrepit 225 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,000 that New England offensive line was last season 226 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,080 to get a blue chip tackle prospect 227 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,040 that's gonna anchor the left side 228 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,480 of your offensive line for years to come. 229 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,880 I mean, as a Bills fan, 230 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,160 we have struggled in recent years 231 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,200 to come up with a consistent pass rush 232 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,200 and having a guy like Alt to go up against two times a year 233 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,000 just makes that job harder. 234 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,880 So my thought process, 235 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,640 we just re-signed on Wendell to a very expensive three year, 236 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,920 I think 57 million dollar deal 237 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,840 and Sandra Bullock said it best, 238 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,320 but you gotta protect the blind side. 239 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,720 So on Wendell's grade on the right, 240 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,040 we need somebody on the left 241 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,040 for whoever's gonna be under center, 242 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,480 throwing balls to KJ Osborne, our new top receiver. 243 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:00,360 Fantastic. 244 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,440 And you still have the opportunity, as you have said, 245 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,920 to kinda jam around a little bit 246 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,480 and find something viable later on 247 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,560 at wide receiver and the skill positions as well. 248 00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:12,360 So no, I think a pick well made. 249 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,800 JJ, what were your thoughts on that one? 250 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,520 Oh, just that, you know, 251 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,000 I'm frustrated that the Patriots in this simulation 252 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,320 not only get the absolute best offensive line 253 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:24,320 in the entire draft, 254 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,520 but then they also get a first round next year 255 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,520 and a third round this year. 256 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,560 That's just like the rich get richer, 257 00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:32,800 just stack that up with your super bowl victories. 258 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,920 Yeah, and this is the thing that, 259 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,520 and Brandon, this goes back to when we did our initial 260 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,120 Friends of the Pod segment together. 261 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,280 Like this has been something 262 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,000 that I've been harping on for a while. 263 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,240 New England's got so many needs 264 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,440 to bring in a top three QB prospect right now 265 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,080 feels a little bit like not doing, 266 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,240 being a good steward of resources. 267 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,040 Trading back, still potentially being able 268 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,800 to get your QB of the future. 269 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,320 And develop more and have more kind of darts 270 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,120 to throw at the dartboard as far as skill position players go. 271 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,040 I think is the way that New England should go. 272 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,480 I mean, ideally Brandon, you guys would never have 273 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,480 to have a pick this high again anyway 274 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,480 if you're doing your job correctly. 275 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,640 So trading back and accumulating more assets to me 276 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,200 is striking while the iron is hot. 277 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,920 So I love that and I love slash hate the pick of Joel. 278 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,560 So let's see what happened here, New York. 279 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:31,480 So we are on the New Jersey Jets. 280 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,400 The New York Giants selected Kinyan Mitchell, 281 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,040 the quarterback out of Toledo, excellent prospect. 282 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,920 Brock Bowers comes off the board to Tennessee. 283 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,840 Tackle Tleis Fouaga from Oregon State 284 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,920 who's got inside outside versatility, 285 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,920 comes off the board to the Atlanta Falcons, 286 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,080 which is a little weird 287 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,800 because the Falcons really need edge help desperately. 288 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,840 But they go offensive tackle here, which, okay. 289 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,120 Byron Murphy, this feels a little high for him. 290 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,120 Defense of interior player from Texas 291 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,760 goes number nine to the Chicago Bears. 292 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,280 The Bears are a place, as we all know, 293 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,840 if you follow any kind of mock draft simulations 294 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,120 or mock draft reports, 295 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,360 is where a lot of teams have Roma Dunes a going. 296 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,440 This guy's comp to me as Kenan Allen 297 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,640 and he is sitting here at number 10 for a team 298 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,840 that desperately needs a number two wide receiver 299 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,320 and is also in win now mode in the New York Jets. 300 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,400 So for me guys, I'm going Roma Dunes a for the Jets. 301 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,360 Bowers is off the board, not an option, could go tackle here. 302 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,920 The next best tackle on here is Washington's Troy, 303 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,560 I'm always mess up this guy's name. 304 00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:39,400 Fautanu. 305 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,920 Fautanu, thank you. 306 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,400 Troy Fautanu. 307 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,680 You also have Fautanu out of Penn State 308 00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:48,560 and JC Latham, both available on the board. 309 00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:51,200 10 is probably a little high for both of those guys. 310 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,840 And again, this is a squad that's in win now mode. 311 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,640 We have Garrett Wilson and Roma Dunes a 312 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,240 on either side of the ball. 313 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,080 Roma Dunes a, he just catches everything 314 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,920 like a magnet that's thrown his way. 315 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,320 Aaron Raj is going to love a target like this. 316 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,000 And I would argue that even Nathaniel Hackett 317 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,960 could not mess up a duo like Wilson and a Dunes a. 318 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,720 So here we go Jets taking a Dunes a with the number 10 pick. 319 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:20,040 Thought about their guys trading back for a second round pick 320 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,240 because the Jets as we know as a result of the Rogers trade 321 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,000 do not have one in this year's draft. 322 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,840 So they're not going to pick again until pick 72 323 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,200 in the third round. 324 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,080 But to me, all is well with that. 325 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,000 They get a premiere wide out and regardless of what happens 326 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,840 this season in New York, should everybody get fired 327 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,440 it be a disaster of a season. 328 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,240 They've got two great foundational building blocks 329 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,640 at the skill positions to build off of next year 330 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,320 in addition to breeze salt. 331 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,440 So to me, it's a win all the way around. 332 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,440 All right, Steve, my friend, we are here at the Miami Dolphins. 333 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,760 And I absolutely hate all of the options you have available to you. 334 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,080 This is like if this board falls this way to you, 335 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,440 this is your most ideal situation because you've got needs 336 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,200 and both trenches, you also need wide receiver depth 337 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,360 and edge couldn't hurt either. 338 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,760 And man, do you have some options here? 339 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,680 So I've got the board in the top five up here. 340 00:14:16,680 --> 00:14:19,440 You've got Johnny Newton from Illinois available. 341 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,000 You've got Dallas Turner edge from Alabama, 342 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,680 AD Mitchell and Brian Thomas, Jr. 343 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,280 both available wide receiver. 344 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,720 And then my my Creed Humphrey of the Strath, 345 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,440 Graham Barton, the do everything offensive linemen out of Duke. 346 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,840 You also have four trade options available to you too, Steve. 347 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,240 So how do you want to play this? 348 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,920 Well, first and foremost, can I just say it absolutely 349 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,920 pains me to see the two previous picks 350 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,320 come off the board right before the dolphins? 351 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,440 Fatah Nuh, Fashah Nuh and Mims, Amarius Mims. 352 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,040 Yeah, like, you know, those I think about, you know, 353 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,240 building in the trenches, like those were the three guys that, 354 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:05,320 you know, I'm like, all right, one of them drop, you know, a couple of them just wasn't there. 355 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:09,440 So I think I'm going to pivot a little bit and look on the defensive side. 356 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,040 Can train to this. 357 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:21,760 Do you need a sort? 358 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,200 You want me to sort my position here? 359 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,440 Just sort through for 360 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,160 here is a defensive line. 361 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,480 Absolutely. 362 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:35,600 Yep, I'll go defensive interior and I will add edge to that too. 363 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,560 Perfect. 364 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:38,120 There you go. 365 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,560 So these are your top defensive interior linemen and edge players available here. 366 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:47,360 I mean, you got two rock solid options here on the on the defensive side of the ball. 367 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:47,880 Yeah. 368 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,000 And it makes me happy that you're going to pass on a guy like Graham Barton 369 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:56,600 if that is in fact where you decide to go. 370 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,800 So I'm looking at Dallas Turner here at edge. 371 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,800 Why? 372 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:10,160 Just looking at the PFF simulator average draft pack, 373 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,000 why he fell down so far if he'd set 12. 374 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,840 It's a little bit of randomness. 375 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,600 OK. 376 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,040 And those tackles went higher even in the same night. 377 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,280 Yeah. 378 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,840 Could you flip back over to the tackle? 379 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:29,480 Absolutely. 380 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:30,680 You want offensive tackle? 381 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,960 Yeah. 382 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,240 You got it. 383 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,120 We got OT and I'll throw. 384 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,440 You also have Anita guard. 385 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,600 So I'm going to throw interior line one pier as well. 386 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,880 Oh, God, the embarrassment of riches at this position. 387 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,040 JJ, look at all that beef, man. 388 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,320 I know.

I love it. 417 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,320 And I think, too, if Armstead can't make it through a full season, which he has 418 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,680 him in a while, Barton can be a guy that flashes to the outside. 419 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,200 He can start immediately for the squad at guard. 420 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,720 He can pop in at center, depending on what happens there for you guys. 421 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,520 This is just this is a Swiss army knife of an offensive lineman. 422 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,240 And he will serve your Miami Dolphins well. 423 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,560 Yes. All right, JJ. 424 00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,560 Now is the time and you see who is on the board right off at the top. 425 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,000 All right. 426 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,640 So here's my here's my justification for what I'm what I'm about to say. 427 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,640 I know that all of Bill's mafia will be like, Oh, my gosh, Brian Thomas, 428 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,080 Jr. has fallen to 28 is available. 429 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,560 The somewhat, you know, 430 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:21,560 agreed upon fourth best wide receiver on the board is there. 431 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:30,480 And yet I am somewhat perplexed by this because I do want the Buffalo Bills to have 432 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,480 a third round pick one to I. 433 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:40,920 The fact that Brian Thomas fell tells me that not a lot of wide receiver talent 434 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,040 after the top three went. 435 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,400 And so that means there's more available in the second. 436 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:49,120 Can you scroll up real quick and let me just kind of give a quick synopsis of 437 00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:53,840 who among the wide receivers has gone on the on the round list to left? 438 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,600 Yep.

So with that, let me see the trade downs because that means that 441 00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:04,920 you have 80 Mitchell went to the Vikings. 442 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,880 Yeah. Only four of the wide receiver talents in the whole draft have gone 443 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,160 in the first round instead of the eight that they're expecting. 444 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,960 And so let me let me look at the trades. 445 00:20:16,360 --> 00:20:18,080 Baltimore at 30. 446 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,520 Will they give me their 62. 447 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:23,960 Or their 93. 448 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,440 Sixty for 28.
