"They're buying into the obvious things and there you have it. It's orlando brown. Joe crete humphry trey smith. Lucas neang three rookies Along the line what stands out is when you go to the next part of the lineup where it's allegri remers life l. d. t. wiley that backup offensive line is probably better than you had in the super bowl the backend five guys and i had said that all along That i felt that way. And i think now you're built for the long haul whereas there was quite the fall off last year because you didn't necessarily have the jap here and i think this year if a trey smith has to win a game man you gotta l. d. t. Who started for five years for you and in the super bowl that you one andrew wylie. He was able to manage that right. Tackle position when the chiefs went down to new orleans and was probably the toughest game of the year. Where they saints. Were calling it a bat game. Clyde is injured and your victorious and so that's my first point about the unofficial depth chart a locks in the rookies and be you. Just take a look at the backup offensive lineman. You're in a way better spot than you were in the playoffs and super cab. Oh i agree completely agree and i think that's One of the things that's interesting about The evaluations people are making the chiefs is that they're making this decision that the chiefs have improved offensive line with three rookie sauna and You know even national commentators are doing that Although you'll occasionally run across one that doesn't seem to have understood the chiefs did in the off season and think this is a line that still needs to be approved and to a large extent it. Does you know it's not the same to be in. Preseason is visiting the regular season so there's a lot that we still have to see but it is well thought of at point point. I want to make your two. And this'll be the last thing about the offensive line is hot offensive line. Hopefully once the browns chiefs game happens the offensive line is fixed. We can finally move onto more exciting things but it's not only ten deep twelve deep or even thirteen because you have prince taken window go and daryl williams who are upcoming players on the practice squad where if someone goes down and it's it's you know that trickle down effect where back moves up you call up one of these guys. I think they're they're pretty up and coming guys. You have come back for week. Seven at a certain point and he provides you a depth. They really liked long in the off. Season didn't end up working out because of the injury and the pupae list is now will wait and see but so you're not only ten deep. You're you're thirteen deep in a sense. All right i looked at the rest of the unofficial depth chart. And i'll make a few points. John and i'll give you an opportunity to say anything if you want. I don't think it was anything really new that we took away from the unofficial depth chart. But what it did for us. This is just confirmed. Some surprises that. Maybe we didn't think we're going to be happening a month ago. For example case in point here devreese fountain simply being on the team instead of cornell. Pal i don't care. I know that chiefs kingdom extends to saint louis and the brassica and all of the mid west now there is not one person in the quote unquote chiefs kingdom. That really ever could have predicted therese founded over cornell pow. No i wouldn't have. I don't think either one of us would have And It's an amazing story. Frankly that this guy who really couldn't make it happen on another team finds a role with the chiefs. But you know that's sometimes how it works because You know when you get to a different team You know you might be a better fit for it and You might have a better opportunity to be effective with that new team so it's not exactly an unknown story See these kinds of things all the time. It'd be great If this is the moment where Fountain finds his niche and can be an effective player. But certainly it's a surprise. Our staff writer whenever a new and very talented staff writers to the post game show last week with stephen serta in line at the post game. Show this week Would start again after the week. One game rocky magana is breaking the arrowhead pride ticker this morning arrow headlines. Pull the first with nfl. Dot com disrespecting the chiefs a little bit on the triplet. The triple eight should have next step threes fountain most likely to become this year's just jefferson. I saw this in our ticker the way that it works as these. Riders will submit john and the articles. Touch them up edit Being about a boom. That's how editing works. Throw them up on the website. I said i cannot believe. I'm gonna run this but here we are. We've had a lot of people just tweeting back at the arrowhead pry twitter account not reading the article. This is such a home thing but what it came out of. And i'm sure rocky will explain this on twitter in ron coppell touch upon and maybe on the next. Api structure after the game. Next monday is that there was some kind of deir exchanged about justin jefferson fountain even rookie. That's that's that's a crazy. Just jefferson was a rookie. The rebound at six games he. He's at third year player that it seems like he's finally coming into his own but what you can read on our head..

"And i will be giving you our own thoughts. Cheech vicky freeman roster. We looking way ahead in the future by predicting our very own playoff teams. But i think tom injury and while the while free weights as recorded will first of all you told us there'd be one waco extend more they go away again. We had another waco. It's been a mysterious. I'm not gonna lie at the people of mystique because on the last show we asked for use and we got the reviews. We go penny or these people did. Send a review. We promised a song the easy and progress. I promise you this is happening for you. We expect it to be ready for the next show. We couldn't for one reason or another. Get it ready for the show because right he's actually in my house. Recording spoke costs flavor on up but the being is that brad has made it two hundred twenty miles down south my house but we are that bad when it comes to technical stuff that we couldn't get lost ten million so we're still having to record via zoom just from opposite ends of the house so i am says in my office in his downstairs in my kitchen which mad because as i said two hundred twenty miles but the last ten years. We just couldn't manage it. They sal is doesn't it brad. Sorry we just couldn't last solos yards. Isn't it meant those. We all basically the phil rivers of cost and we. He managed over the odds but when it comes to actually getting over the line and managed to do something tangible we just couldn't an dot. That's us yeah. That's definitely mac we. We've actually. i've actually got some fun down here while you're on your neck of the woods who went out last night for a few drinks and we get we did. We had a male as well which finish me off. Amazing by the way was ruined. But yeah i'm down in woods now so Yeah i'm guest you are you. Are you met my family. My mad kits the crazy bits of the house out the as to our headlines and they spoke us a henry and they wanted to be on it from all the discussion points to have this morning before they they. They wouldn't have a clue what they're talking about. My my out is just prominent. Stop talking about anchoring associes than berry on different dinosaurs. That's why he was so glad. Mix and maybe. There's a future that in august into and my sons have a jurassic while slash camp Met your soon was talking to me about different dinosaurs. I've no idea what he's talking about. And he's going to be like a paleontologist similar that i've i've not want but anyway it should we get the because we've taken on meals at times to the chiefs fifty three man roster aware. I know it's been spoken about quite a bit from from odors. Obviously in our head pride podcast and there's been some sharks have been soon surprises but there's also been some pleasant things as well that we've seen as players in there that we didn't probably think we're going to be on the fifty three man roster but of managed to sneak in somehow but we're just going to go through for a few hours where shocking points and some of our most surprising points and the place that will be a yet. We'll be watching the season around the corner bays as where we can wear like literally a week away exactly it's spies as record. It's five days until the season starts but for us aid. As and tell you teased is crazy. And the fifty freeman roster. I of who'd be a guy that's out there and did a house where fred all cohen cornell pal coming out of college he might be the next big thing for chase would be that i was gonna bring it so that was the first view class so all right pride and i was really really excited about cornell pal and about free weeks ago free four weeks ago we start getting clues that it might not walk out for power in terms of making a fifty frady. He was buried in depth chop guys stepped up and he was running with the freeze in the fours in preseason games. The ryan's been on the wall for him for a couple of weeks but they did it. They reached on it. He realized the it was not right to keep on pailin the fifty freight and he took a risk and he waved a draft. Pick which for gm to do the. Because you basically admit in your room. Let's on this your in the you'll you'll processing april was around but this ain't on the positive as you can say. Well i'm go that wrong or you can say that picking up found and cam was positive. Moves a my pop This to look at but yeah cornell. Not making the roster. Wasn't a shock early in the week. Bayview told me a month ago that he wasn't gonna make the rostock then. Yeah i think everyone would not crises. A fifth round draft pick. Why there's no. There's no way he's not might save big shock of the overall process. Yes i think you're right. I think we've with beach. Admitted what no not not necessarily admitted they've got him on the practice squad It it's. It's the powell needed to kind of polish game. A little bit morton ammo we showed up from the pre season rating That wasn't quite dad. I suppose with the chiefs wide receiver core while the they've got some buddies in net. Been around quite a while and in the playbook and everything so it's probably more push point for them. Obviously because they understand the complex playbook but powell probably needs a little bit more work. You might come back you know. It's it's impossibility could come back from that But yeah very surprising. Gm has gone now. I haven't worked with my like kim. Either i do. Because i think if we want to talk about founding in balls here because they were the big plus point so base preseason. Everyone was ready happy about that. Contribution and yet the potential of them being on the fifty three And it would have been easy the To say no to stick to hayes. He's draw Box him and recognized that in this particular year wasser t- still in the middle of a huge super window. They have guys that contributes special teams especially in marcus But potentially contribute in receiving game. Like valium will do like the some of the characters he made this. This preseason like coming across tomato catches on policies to take in hayes like really like risky catches like i. If you play the sport play we just even the casual catching across. The meadow is scary reason. Why titans or as big as they are because they have to put that body on the line in catching in the middle east stiffer receive. It's a run a run. A slung intimately fell into the linebackers territory. Take the past an intake. And keep all the bo is is tough. Ask why we like barham. Bring gosar much. Because he's done that in the past. But this guy's atari makuhari. Neff boss like tetris policies and engage away but without into to showdown the preseason showed that he's capable of us technical stuff that we are sammy watkins today than it made since the well to keep him ahead of cornell pal especially of cornell wasn't producing the same so away yeah exactly I think one of the big surprises open up but not a big surprise was but one of surprises that the really kinda got chiefs funds boson was duty fortson. Brennan away onto the fifty airmen roscoe and he's been a fan favorite for a while now is and actually shifting from wide receiver to tight end position jazz really wounded. Doesn't it because he's bowled outrage in the past. Few preseason games. He's been not yeah he's just been a different complete player isn't he. Really because I mean there's been said about the titans set to be set up as well. And i mean that was tasty. Wasn't that allows us as to play. I am all for heavy taught end personnel sets like i know he was a terrible human being watching herron. Mondays in grunk play together was just like for me. Stike the sex of of Lua sorry stay at style watching drunk and handed play together and now he's too tired sets for the patriots and just by cd baby. Entire receiving coal is just like the best possible thing you can say..

"Hurt right now and not to say that he won't be back but what i'm saying is injuries do happen. Shirt running back room Dare williams we believe is just coming out of the concussion protocol. For example we saw jerick mckinnon and darwin thomson really be the one to toward the end of the preseason there. So derek gore doesn't make the initial roster. But i think he remained someone to remember if there are injuries to the running back room later this year. I think there's two historical precedents to look at here. for these two players for For darwin thomson. The historical precedent is charge andric west. Who came back to the team. Several times After his initial departure And and you know performed fairly well in those roles when the chiefs needed help and the running back room. I think we could see thompson back those kinds. I'm happy that you didn't say. Cj spill because yeah. Yeah the other president. I think spillers scenario report derek gore. Yeah the the president for gore. I think is is is more elijah mcguire. Who also was a chiefs running back this year. That she had him on the practice squad a few times hope to develop him into a good running back just as they have with other players like one. We'll get to here in a little bit And i think that's something that they would like to do with the player like derek gore. Y- poor mcguire got hurt toward the end of that preseason game and we won't see him another point about this i think. Congratulations to daryl williams. Because even though mckinnon makes us roster like. I said. I think he's more of a a comp a guy that can give clyde rest. I think daryl williams is finally getting to be that third down back might be brass pass protector among them and in other years he had shawn mccoy. Enter the the levian bell answer the fold. And what are those guys do except take his opportunity and really set it back and and set it further into the future and so i think they're a williams finally getting an opportunity. That's a good moment for him. And man pete y you so dumb. Why did you think that andy. Reid wasn't gonna fullback what's done projection. I'm never doing it again. I'm telling you right now here. We are august thirty first. I will never. I will never ever make a projection on this website for andy. Reid that does not include a fullback. Michael burton makes the team and we saw at the beginning of the preseason. He was blocking for climate really. That was part of the reason. He had that ten yard game to even start. The preseason yesterday was aligned. But michael burton was there so we say goodbye to sausage. You agree here. We probably see burton for what six to ten offensive plays a game and among the special teams. Yeah i think that's right Sort of the same role that That anthony sherman had. He might actually get a little more use than that because because he's younger You know i think. Anthony sherman was getting to the point that They didn't want us him quite that often. On offense is his snap counts were steadily declining over time and So i think there's a chance we could see him. Used more often In this particular chiefs offense burton originally played college football at rutgers which is greedy a two thousand fifteen fifth round originally bounce around and now he is with the chiefs all right. Let's go to the wide receiver room. Which i felt like brought some intrigue here more. So than maybe we had bargained for the chiefs and on the initial roster they only keep the five wide receivers tyreek hill coal hartman bio and pringle demarcus robinson. All to be expected. But if i name those four and i said john cheese kept five. You'd probably say that that was markets. Kemp is the fifth. But it's not therese fountain ends up making the team. Which i thought was really interesting and the other part of this. That's obvious let you comment. Here is the fact that brett beach is the first time that i can recall that he gave up on a pick fifth rounder in cornell pal in the year that he drafted that player and so to me a couple of unprecedented things happened in the wide receiver room today. Yeah and one of them being marcus cam. Probably making the fifty three ultimately. Because he's he's had trouble doing that. And i think that that is the way this is going to play out when we get a couple of players off the roster to go to injured reserve. Marcus camp is going to be one of the guys who shows up. A number is light. I i wanna have six receivers. So i agree with you and a friend of our site matt derek of chiefs digest well-connected with camp. He noted that. I it seems like from the camp camp. Say that would. They believed that he will be a roster player on this team. Right to reach fountain really looked good. Yeah and i think the chiefs didn't wanna take a chance with fountain out there on the open market or anything like that or available to other teams and they go and keep them a twenty eighteen Guy's been in the league for a couple of years. Now i believe he first entered the league's a fifth rounder and has been working kinda like camp a little bit lesser talked about but just been trying to knock on the door and find a place and you could tell. He came to camp a with something to prove here. We talked to was job. Lemire the wide receivers coach. And what perk. My ears up during training camp was the idea that lie. meyer said. he's there right now. He just has to keep showing and keep showing a keep showing it and maybe i didn't put enough stock into it at the time. It was her first time getting blind. Meyer you gotta see what. Get from these assistant coach. Sure we'll offense to if you're watching now. Yeah you did a great..

"I know that he became at the end of the preseason there quite a fan favorite as two men. This gore kid can make the roster. I think this is going to be someone. The chiefs will definitely be interested in having on that practice squad. And you don't know what can happen. The running back position clyde edwards. Allaire got her for the last three games last year. He was hurt during the playoffs. He's hurt right now and not to say that he won't be back but what i'm saying is injuries do happen. Sure running back room Daryl williams we believe is just coming out of the concussion protocol for example. We saw jerick. Mckinnon and darwin thomson really be the one to toward the end of the preseason there so derek gore doesn't make the initial roster but i think he remained someone to remember if there are injuries to the running back room later this year.

Come back and those kinds of sir. I'm happy that you didn't say. Cj spillers because yeah. Yeah the other president. I think spillers scenario for poor derek gore. Yeah the president for gore. i think is is Is more elijah mcguire. Who also was Chiefs running back this year.

Yesterday michael birt was there so we say goodbye to sausage. You agree here. We probably see burton for what six to ten offense to play a game and then among the special teams. Yeah i think that's right Sort of the same rule that That anthony sherman had.

"I was super excited but after just one preseason game. My stance is now firmly shifted to yet. Oh yeah mckinnon's making the team if darwin's making it it's an fourth running back special teams guy. I just don't see him as having any chance to to surpass mckinnon after at least again. We're probably overreacting to one game. But based on what. I saw that one game. Yeah i think. I think mckinnon's a lock and i hope he does get some reps with the first team while take us into the wide receivers. You have some really interesting like you think. There's a real path year for doris fountain to not only maybe have a good chance to make the roster. You're like saying that maybe even more than that. Yeah we'll and again. I don't want to overreact. One preseason game because he come out next week and dropped And in a week ago okay. That was apparently just a one week thing. But my my whole point i was trying to get at is. It's not like there's an impossible mountain declined to get playing time at wide receiver for the chiefs. Because why do they want to get hurt. Men more involved. I really think he's more fit for like that third receiver slot role and that outside second receiver. Whether it's demarcus robinson byron pringle. Maybe cornell powell comes around all those guys are capable of playing that spot. But it's not like the chiefs are heavily invested in any of one of those guys. So if a guy like therese fountain just continues delight. Play great which. I thought he did on saturday night. It's not like they're like well. We can't take snaps away from demarcus robinson. Let you know what i mean. I just don't think that outside receivers spot has anybody. That's got like a a major claim to it. That is just untouchable. So if a guy like fountain continues to play great. And i'm not predicting that he will but if he does if all three preseason games he produces like that why not give him a shot out there. I mean i'm. I'm a byron pringle fan. I'd like to see Pringle get more of those snaps than demarcus robinson. But i'm not sold on. Pringle that if fountain is playing gray. I give him a shot out there at that kind of x. Spot i think he's got the size to do it. He had good hands. He made some contested grabs i. I was really impressed in since kansas city wasn't able the sign anybody to kind of come in and compete for that spot. If you've got a guy in house that showing some promise man. I'm i'm willing to. At least give him a look. 'cause like i said i just don't see anybody that's currently playing in that role. That's untouchable lyle. Drinking from the fountain. I wanna say cornell pal. I know that was too cheesy. It was marines french. All those those french jokes like we we do want to say cornell pal is not impressed in no one's talking about him fifth round draft. Pick marcus Everyone knows how great he is in special teams. Dave tobe loves him. Is there any chance with with the addition of fountain and camp. That cornell pal might not make the roster. I don't think that's impossible..

"Right Which is not base which has not been the base During the spagnolo years but it has been the most used formation so kind of telling us. It's a weird thing now because like well then it's it's technically the base then right. What does the word base mean in. A you know what i mean. So it's the most used formation and you're seeing a lot of folks do this now across the league when they're doing evaluations articles and whatnot. It's it's more of the four down linemen the two linebackers and then you have the defensive backs and i actually liked this better. It almost was backwards for a couple of years. They were just continuing put out the four three and then they'll be trying to force guys in different spots. So i actually liked this better but yeah so chris. Jones more realistic derek. Nadi frank clark. Let's go to linebackers. Willie gain anthony. Hitchens are there. we also have okay so behind. Willie gay nick bolton during. Oh dan dory no daniel and our murray cobb behind anthony hitchens bend neiman darius harris and emmanuel smith and riley coal. This feels up and down right. I think during no daniel despite really not being a factor on defense is going to make this team once again as just that ultimate special teamer. I think that's it is interesting. That really gay is next to anthony. Hitchens for all the folks that were really worried about ben neiman being. That's about. I think ben even going to be playing quite a bit. But he's not going to be the starter per se. In what would be. The four to five were describing. They liked ben neiman and he knows the playbook i really i mean speaking have set it a lot where it's a neck up type of thing to me is among the players that are gonna make this roster good to see nick bolton right in that second spot. I think that that's just how confident they are in him. Because you look at the rookies bolt in this spot. Cornell pal is buried. i mean if they weren't high on what bolton has shown so far. I don't know if he'd be this high in this of course unofficial depth chart. Yeah no i agree. And i think this depth chart looks perfect. Gain hitchens bolton neiman daniel in harris cobb and smith. And they're likely gonna keep what four or six i think is the normal number of linebackers. If i remember correctly am without looking that up. But i think six is the number they keep so. That leaves Cobb and emmanuel smith Out on on cut down day. You're starting cornerbacks trevor ward. Does that left. they have luxurious. Need it right. And then mike uses listed as just a cornerback in reality. This is swamped sillage. Nina has been playing as what would be the nickel whereas mike us has been getting a lot of the nods on the outside. There's also competition. Though there for rashad fenton has been making a case mashad. Fenton is actually look good. These past few days on the outside playing against the top team. The andre baker is behind fenton in that and then behind ward and hughes. You have chris lemons. Many patterson. i'd dicaprio bootle. Zane anderson is among that abo-. Pk's is right behind. Mike hughes in one of the cornerback positions almost a second column. So i i like bo pete keys. I think he's starting to come along a little bit more. I don't think he's ready to have any real meaningful snaps. But as long as he's playing special teams. I see no that. Ot's isn't on this roster. I think by the end of this fenton could make a case to maybe get the nod over hughes but right now hughes is the other cornerback. I think that's the only telling thing at that position The thing i find fascinating is the presence of chris. Lambs behind Show various ward. Now this guy that chiefs had last year On the practice squad for most of the season he was activated Temporarily a couple of times the game day elevation as they called it last year right they will call it. this year. That that rule stays this year's best best we can tell So i find it interesting that they've got him behind ward at that left cornerback position And and and ahead of the andre baker Baker is in the third position behind steed and fenton on this depth chart. So i find that very interesting. Yeah that's worth noting. I didn't even catch the how high chris. Lemons was interesting quarterback position in the depth chart too because he's just might be the next three up in a sense of how who comes in first. We don't really know how it works. All right sage positions daniel sorensen entire in matthew. I think a little bit notable that one thornhill is behind. But i i was expecting that. Devon key is right behind tire and matthew. He's been getting some buzz. I think it's telling that key is ahead of what would be harmony watts and will park. We thought would also be in the mix and back of the safety room is marlin character and rodney clements. So i'm not a huge surprise sorenson and matthew been basically getting a ton of the reps when there's been two safeties out there when a third safety comes in it's been one thornhill devin key has been getting a lot of the dime safety first team reps which is really wild considering. He's an undrafted free agent and it's really tough. I remember when steve's bag nola was saying we're not even sure how much one thornhill a second round pick was going to play. And he was playing well and it's like but what does he have to do. And this is still early in training. Camp and devon key is already getting those dime safety wraps. Oh i just think that's a name to know. And certainly someone nobody in chiefs media had in their fifty three because nobody knows knew who this person was. Yeah and now all of a sudden. I think there's a really good chance he's going to make the roster yeah He certainly has acquired. Some buzz hasn't been and and and also in this safety depth chart You see rodney. Clemens in that fourth column. he's a guy that was on the practice squad last year and was elevated two or three times and i would have considered him to be on pretty much par with chris. Lions so that to me says a lot about how surprising chris. Lambs is Being in the second column behind various ward. But no. I think you make a good point Devon key is going to be the guy and a lot of fans will be upset. That thornhill isn't up there instead of sorenson..

"Hardman. I think that. I think it says something. Then demarcus robinson marcus therese fountain cornell palace buried here darius shepherd and dalton show and cornell pal on the wide receiver to is the fifth receiver in the mix and watching him at camp. He is getting third team reps and not really able to separate from. What is the third team defense. And he was asked. The enemy was asked about pal at today's press conference and be enemy said he's a rookie. Who has a good soul. That's his negatives. Eric vietnamese out about player. So i i'm not saying that cornell pal draft pick from this year's draft is gonna get cut but what it's done me. It would not at this point. But we are in august tenth august ninth august tenth recording august ninth that that's going to be released on august tenth so there's still room there so preseason games. He's not looked good is out. He has been the one draft pick that has has really looked like he doesn't belong and while andy. Reid didn't make this list. It's made by people who are in the building every day and have some kind of an idea which way the wind is blowing and they know the players see. That's like i said it. Yeah route they know the players. See this this to me. If i'm cornell pal and i'm waking up and i'm seeing this that is you gotta wake up i don't know what else to say co hardman. It seems like that the other way with with his position because he's the lead in the wide receiver to and he asked looked good. I mean i talked about willie. Gay on the defensive side of the football mccall hardman. Looks like a different player to me at this camp and he needed to and he really has risen to the occasion. And you have dave tobe. Patrick mahomes and andy reid. Everyone's talking about his maturity and really meaning it. I they're going out of their way to say. Yeah he's just taken away more seriously and showing it showing on the field now. I think the player was motivated by wanting to beat good but after this year you also have the prospect of a potential contract extension. So there's monetary reasons not exactly a contract year. He has another two years on his contract. But in the rookie deals you can get extended after the third season. And so he can put himself in a position where maybe he plays so well. In twenty twenty one. We're having that conversation next offseason about hardman and the potential to maybe extend right who knows not sure what it means but one of the things that i saw today that i found interesting well over the last couple of days is that dave tobe identified hardman as both his punt returner and kickoff returner And that's not something that has been the normal thing over the last well last season certainly hardman only return kickoff. Tope said that pringles gonna. That's what's weird about this depth chart because tope said pringles to kick returner the primary kicker now and then mccoll's in at both slots on us which is Which again goes into. How how seriously do you take it. We just found out the other day that pringles probably gonna be returning kicks to start the year and and and this is the thing that's weird about. It is that when i saw this. Today i gave a little more weight to the idea that that hardman was going to be on kickoffs to not but that was weird to me and he said today And the press conference that. Oh yeah i'm a i'm a kick returner. I wanna be a kick returner. Dave knows that. And i wanna be that guy you could tell i. I actually asked that question today at harvard and yeah i felt them to in his answer that it reminded me of what he was describing was tyreek hill when he was. I mean we have maybe forgotten a little bit when tire kill was not really in the offense and he was just the returner. I mean it was one of the most exciting parts.

We're out of the city and secluded here a bit where we can really focus on on football in the house that we have ahead. We've got tremendous schedule that set before us. And we understand that some heck of a football teams on there and and we gotta make sure that we're We're ready to go. The day is today as kansas city. Chiefs veterans arrived to training camp on the campus of missouri western state university in saint joseph. Where rookies injured players and quarterbacks have already been for three days chiefs head coach. Andy reid said. The chiefs are over ninety percent player. Vaccinations and that. Thirty players reported to the camp on friday including veterans in one thornhill taco charleston and de'andre baker. All working through injuries from last year. We'll get to patrick mahomes as turf toe in just a second but read provided a blanket statement on the other injuries to know for this football team just on the injury front. We've got some guys that are up here that will work de'andre baker taco charlton. One thornhill they'll be doing some activities up here in the in the next couple of days. So maliki dareen. He'll be period. knee acl. He's just rehabbing. That and armani watts wall so be up here with the. He had a foot fracture and is doing well. Just how long is is also proven. He's improving and doing really a great job with his rehab likewise he will not be up here for For this go. Round for the next couple of days as for the frank clark in his off the field situation read fully expects the big money defensive end to be among those players arriving in saint joe later today catching up on official transactions. The team put safety or money. Watts on the physical unable to perform list and defensive. End balik herring. He's on the non football injury list now to patrick mahomes. i think it'll be no restrictions. I've been training running. Throwing doing everything that i i usually do. And what was so good about going. Not as and doing those things are tested there. I realized i was good. And then when. I got back with bobby and started training in the off season with him I was able to do what i normally would do. Yeah patrick mahomes has good to go. When it comes to that turf toe surgery he had way early in the off season and the expectation is. He'll be rolling at training camp. It's wild to even rat my head around this. I don't know about you but patrick. Mahomes will enter his fifth season in twenty twenty one and he said that the defensive players on the club ensure that he remains more motivated than ever. I think it comes with the culture that we have in this locker room. When you're going up against guys like time matthew and chris jones every single day and they're talking trash you kind have to have that competitive spirit of you're gonna get dominated on the practice field so i think it just comes with the guys that you had around. You don't take a day for granted. I think we've we've learned that if we put in the work now that that's it will be at the end of the season where we want to be at. So it's about putting in the work right now day by day getting better and better so that at the end of the year you have no regrets about What you did in the season moms had a nice weekend. Throw into the likes of rookies cornell. Pal noah gray but the big guns such as veterans tyreek hill and travis kelsey. They'll take part in their first full team practice on wednesday policy..

"I'll how picks up right where sammy watkins left off And i want to reiterate. I continue to think that michael hartmann is not an exact fit for sammy watkins x. type of position. I think they ideally want a bigger receiver there. We know what to marcus. Robinson is no offense to the fourth rounder. I think the chiefs have gotten the absolute most out of the marcus. Robinson talks about ceilings. I think the ceiling is super high for cornell pow and when it comes to byron pringle. We don't even really know with his ceiling. Is all we know when it comes to byron pringle as that when he's on the field when he gets a target when he has the ball in his hands he's been successful it's been a plus for the chiefs. Can he take that next step. Now that he's we think going to be getting the opportunities with sammy watkins out of the picture during training camp. Sammy watkins usually was healthy during training camp. So he was taking. A lot of the rap is a baltimore. Raven is completely gone now so now it is finally going to be that true wide open. Competition can byron pringle. Or i think darkhorse in cornell pal or if you wanna go dark horse at antonio calloway take advantage and make a case. Okay i'm going to be that fourth target for you again. The targets go kelsey and hill. Something clyde edwards allaire. Then this position for me who is going to be getting those targets when it comes to your fourth option on this offense even darker horse Jody fortson or joe fortson. How whatever you wanna call him award fortunate the other guy. We're gonna be this year. Well i'd love to see that. Obviously we'd all love to see that because we saw What having that kind of a threat in sammy watkins available did for the chiefs offense that i it was. It was more effective when you had that additional threat on the field. So i think that that's something that everybody would like to see. The question is going to be. Who's it going to be. And i think you're exactly right. That pringle is a guy who could has the physical traits to to fill that role that watkins had and he's shown that he's capable of making plays when he's given the opportunities and powell of course You know was fantastic In the end of last season in the end of the twenty twenty season. Our our new writer jared sap wrote about that Very good fan post about it A couple of months ago of the things that caught our eye about that. That young fellow so You know the question is who's it going to be and they've got a lot of guys in camp calloway's certainly one of the guys that might step up and do that but as long as it somebody. I think that's going to be a great headline.

"Pride podcast network and johnston saw a little bit of himself in gay. Same points about ward. I don't have to repeat them with not having rookie off season he has had that. He's one hundred percent healthy off of that. Meniscus injury and damian wilson is no longer here and achieves really need him to perform because if he doesn't right it's gotta be another situation where ben neiman is going to be getting a lotta rap. Ideally they want anthony hitchens willie gate a be the guys this season. I think benjamin is on this team. I think you hope. That's more of a special teams role because of gays on the field. You're going to be a better defense. Yeah i think. That's exactly right. And i'd love to see that headline and i think it's Quite a possibility. I think there's a good chance we'll see something very much like that. All right john anymore for us. I have one more after this. I have one more to you. Okay here we go. You go first. Yeah okay this is non chiefs. We're getting back to a non chief story as we did the show. Nfl fines buccaneers one million dollars for failing to report tom. Brady's mc l. injury lasts. I'm sorry this pisses me off. I i mean i'm the rules are the damn rules you know and it it infuriates me that the buccaneers haven't already been fine for this. Now that this story has come out that brady had essentially a serious injury that wasn't on anybody's on their injury report all of last season when it should have been. The rules are very clear on this. You don't get out of it. Just because the i took all the practice reps even if you get all the practice rupture required for these injuries to be disclosed. Now let's not even get into wide. These rules exist the fact. Is that these rules do exist. Yup and tom brady should have to live by them just like everybody else. I think it's bad enough. That fans think that brady gets the benefit of calls during games. I think you're just making that that narrative easier for fans to believe if you let him get away with this kind of crap. I'm just an infuriated by it. And i'd like to see the nfl. Do the right thing and really make the buccaneers an example. And and i'd also like to point out that maybe this means it isn't really that bill bill check as a cheater. Maybe it's tom brady. That's the damn cheater so to get that out there. I think you make a good point. I'm actually surprised that we haven't seen. Maybe i've just missed them. Because i do not check boston headlines every day but has the article been written. If tom brady was still a patriot the patriots would have already been fined. Five million like. How is that not in boston. Where i mean. I feel like they always feel like they're the ultimate victim with bill bell check in the new england system. You make a good point. The fact that we didn't have any idea that he had what was torn mc l. around super bowl and really the entire season. That's what was wild about this. This was a big secret because yeah adam schefter. No ian rapoport didn't know the other news breakers did a no as a matter of fact the rappaport earlier in the day when we found that out last week foley said that he had the torn mc l. in the super bowl it came out later on no he had the torn mc l. throughout the year. And i don't know exactly what the specific rules are. Is there a loophole. Where if he just came to training camp like that. They only after report new injuries. I don't for what it's worth it to your point. I don't think that is the rule and so the fact that wants to there is an incredible thing and take away the wrong part of it right amazing that he was able to play the way he did get the bucks to the frequent playoffs and they run through all these teams and win the super bowl but yeah major surgery. This offseason. tom brady and we knew nothing about it until months and months and months later all right my final headline my i'll go back to the chiefs with mine and i have an alternate here. It could be cornell pal or byron pringle but either one corner..

"But i sort in tears right so i've got patrick mahomes as his own tier the his own category at the top of this list that i've got those players that could be considered amongst the nfl elite or some of the best of their position in the league Which are the next five on our list from orlando brown on up. Then you've got the starters that would be starters. Nfl team and then you get into the role players in the death positions. And that's where it sorta gets jumbled right so you could rank the role players in the depth players on this team a number of different ways. Any i've been neiman has been one of those key role players in the past. I guess he'd be hoping he's not a key role player in the future. Maybe that's why. I ranked him outside of the top thirty but i also have sort of special teams category. So obviously we none of us have the kicker or punter on this list was both very valuable important starting players on this team so i i have special teams sort of bound in in their own category below the the key role players on offense and defense but otherwise you might see a kicker on a partner higher up on this list so so yeah when you get into those fifteen to thirty range is a lot of depth it's a lot of projection And you can rank them on a number of different ways. I'm sure everybody out. There might have a slightly different list if they did the whole exercise themselves as well. Yeah i will say. I i think it might have been a mistake to not have butt-cover in the top thirty i i know he kinda struggled last year but kick and he has been very reliable on the long kicks and that's super super valuable to be able to kick fifty yard field goals not being in a good field position as an offense still able to get three points and so bucker should have made the top thirty it. We did have a question recently on this podcast about. Who would you rather see. Have a bad season ariza bunker or Ward for example. And if you think about it in those terms of the that sort of proxy for the value to this team right so you could cover up a charter ward. Having a bad season. But you couldn't cover up harrison bucker so maybe if you rank these again and you included special teams. Maybe they'd be in those those early. Twenty s range On this list to say that they're not as impactful as an every down linebacker for example. But you can't overcome a bad kicker as easy to could a cornerback. I'm surprised we don't have nick bolton analyst especially use a four future looking. I'm sure he's right on the edge. You know top thirty. I'm sure he's right there for you but You know. I i guess i guess you didn't have him over neiman. 'cause i did or i hadn't even over bolton which i'm kinda regretting already now i think about it more and more because i do think bolton can come in and play that situational role not exactly what neiman did but play enough snaps to have a similar value to neiman for the team and so maybe he shoulda cracked the top thirty. Because i do think bolton might play a little more than than we think right. Now i've got golden at thirty one so just outside the top thirty a it was a good point and trey smith as well you know those are potentially fast risers if and when they get the opportunity to play so i've got them as as newcomers that to keep an eye on noah gray cornell pal jerick mckinnon trey smith nick bolton and blake bell like all of those guys as the first five or six players right outside of the top. Thirty all wants to watch. Because i think there's a real good chance that they that they're ascending depending on the opportunity that they're given i think another guy we got to think about and i'm surprised he's not on your list although i can't be too surprised because you probably think gangs gonna take right. Tackle mike remers. He's an. I'm going to predict the right tackle week one..

"One game like salary cap elite right right so where you can only do so many things in the offseason to improve your team if you're if you're picking and choosing which you have to do again with the salary cap league you say protect patrick mahomes because at the end of the day we've talked about it now for years chiefs are probably putting up thirty to forty points a game and so if you to spend on money. Let's protect patrick mahomes. Let's make sure that he has time to get to these weapons. Let's make sure that the chiefs can can score it will. And then if you're scoring a will defense becomes a lot more easier because you have turned the opposing team and to very much one dimensional and you could pin your ears back chased the quarterback and so on and so forth and so the greatest defense. It's gonna be reversed cliche but sometimes the greatest defense. This year's or i should say this ages. Nfl is a really really good offense. And so yeah. Maybe they didn't devote as many of their resources to the edge position. That offense could be as good as it was in two thousand eighteen. And if it is it. Changes the entire game even for the defensive side of the football. So we'll see how this plays out all right john. What's your number two position battle to watch. Well i think to me. It's cornerback Just because again. There's a lot of of interlocking pieces here I thought Steve spagnolo is comments about The cornerback battle the last time he spoke to us. We're very interesting. One point he said you know the guy who breaks through. That is if there's a guy who breaks through with these young players care fraud and that yeah I thought that was very interesting because You know we've talked about this before he. He really puts his heart on his sleeve and he tells us what he's thinking. That's something i really appreciate about. Steve spagnolo that says to me that they're not quite certain how this is going to play out but they feel like they have enough talented players that they can make it. Work somehow So i think that gives the edge to players like trevor ward for shod fenton and these guys who have done pretty well on the system and obviously luxurious need and my personal belief is that They're not going to feel okay. With some of these guys like mike hughes and deandra baker by the time this season begins. So we'll see a lot of stuff like spag all talked about in philadelphia where you've got this guy. That in some situations is a slot corner in other situations outside corner. I think we'll see that. At the beginning of the season and then as the season progresses or in players are injured will start to see things change. And we'll see more of the andre baker but you know it who knows how it could play out. It can be very interesting to watch in training camp. Now cornerback is not my number two battle to watch. But i appreciate the offering only because if you look at this roster and you look at the step chart you have one player at the cornerback. Room that is locked in to hit what his position is going to be. And that's areas ford on the outside right so like we know. Legitimate needs to play a significant role. But we don't really know what that role is writing and they're still figuring that out and so that's where it becomes an interesting training camp battle the watch because i truly think and stemming from your point about bagnall this is something they're working through. How does mike use fit in the mix. How does rashad shot. Fencing fit in the next jerry. Sneed guy the outside and he's just going to focus on snead island and not go into the slot where he is that one of the better positions players at the position as assad cornerback in the nfl. If you're doing that then suddenly you have advanced. Trust in someone. Like a mike. Us like a rashad fenton. How does deondraye. Baker fit in that mix jerry. Steed ended up staying in the slot. Because you're like you know what baker and ward are good on the outside and for areas ward who to a to an extent is an average to maybe slightly above average player for him to be the only player locked in at a certain position. Yes that does make the battle very much intriguing. Four chiefs training camp by number two position. Because i love offense offense guy wide receiver to. I'm just curious as to who is going to be the new sammy. Watkins i think the chiefs know what to marcus. Robinson is and i think that is somebody who has a role player for this team. If someone gets injured and i think it's going to be a battle between the rookie and cornell pal. I think byron pringles also going to be in that mix. I had mentioned antonio calloway. A dark corner stair. Marcus can't before that injury. They said we're playing the best football of his career. Who knows it could go a lot of different ways. And i think by extension. I've said this before. We sort of know pow the rookie going to be on the team. We know it's going to be robinson and hardman and hill and pringle the reason. I didn't mention hardman in that because i just don't think he fits into that size and weight. I know he's been getting some buzz as the sammy watkins guy. But i yeah. I'm not buying it. I'm not doing it whatever when i will say. Is we know those five right. We know those. Whose number six is there a number seven. We've mentioned on the podcast before it doesn't mean one less running back and then all of a sudden you have a seventh wide receiver very very intriguing position for the first time in a while for me a heading into training camp. I think you're right. I think it's about the number six. And maybe the number seven player and it makes you wonder whether a guy like gary deeter is even going to be able to hang onto a job in the practice squad With but that brings up the thing that we've i think mentioned before that you know he is somebody that they might like to have on the practice squad specifically because of the way he practices in the fulfil role that they see on other teams sometimes. Really well i think it's easy for us to forget that the practice squad is first and foremost the practice squad. These guys that you need in order to run your practices the way you want to. It's not necessarily About replacing guys. Who were injured at cetera. Although that's certainly part of it but But you may it makes you wonder whether dealers going to have a chance to stay with the team this year because of that battle for the sixth or seventh wide receiver. Because there's gonna be some guys are going to want to hang onto even if they don't make the fifty three and you know what i'm looking at the roster as we speak here perfect time to say joe fortson now or never man. This is because he's been as big target and and it's it's i believe it's thirty or try. Try for this. And i know that he got sick because last offseason high pointing balls and so on a deep position to the chiefs were fifteen or usually. This is the running back position this year. The clown car is our john..

Gordon who cannot who cannot play who cannot stay on the field. I mean i talk about. You can't trust frank. Clark josh gordon just tells you right away. I'm not going to be able to stay on the field but you can sign me. And then i've seen i don't know about you sort of it. I've seen many people. Discuss the nicole harry the patriots Two thousand nineteen thank you. Who is who is requesting requesting trade. Many people talk about. Hey man maybe the chiefs should take a look at this. We are we serious about this guy who is been a bust right now in nicole hairy it with the patriots now granted. Some of that quarterback play in year. Two that he faced last last year with cam and brian. Hoyer isn't really the great thing to help you out with. But a guy who's been a bust eighty-six targets in the last two years since he's been in the league. And then josh gordon who who who just cannot stay on the field and hell. I don't even know how good he is anymore. Right now he. I mean he hasn't even played long enough to even know how good it's been a long time. Eight nine years since he led the nfl in receiving yards. I we are not in this desperation mode that it feels like every week. Please tell me why the chiefs need to go. Take a look at these two guys. Please sell me on this garbage certa all that you try to sell us on going out there and getting one of these guys josh. Gordon's your dude. Well yes. I love. Josh gordon He had a couple of catches with the patriots a couple years ago. He still got it all right. He had a catch with russell couple years ago in like week. Sixteen josh gordon's so got it baby. No yes obviously. There's question marks. Obviously there's flags but if he gets reinstated. I'm interested in taking a look at him because it doesn't cost you anything to bring him into camp in just cut him if he can't keep it together if you think yes. He's just not good at football anymore. He's out of shape. He's had just hasn't had the reps over the last several years to maintain the level of athleticism and play that you need to succeed in the modern day. Nfl but if we're talking about we want another camp body and we want to bring in another wide receiver and see what happens. I'd be very interested in bringing in josh gordon. Especially over nikial harry. I understand the kill. Harry is only twenty four years old but he is just not looked like a competent. Nfl wide receiver. The patriots haven't done a lot to help him out but he hasn't been very good in the. Nfl doesn't create separation in any way not interested. I wasn't really that interested in him as a prospect. I am on the josh. Gordon train because i wanna see as many weapons as possible with patrick mahomes. Maybe we believe fifth round wide receiver. Cornell pal is the answer or mccoll's finally going to take a huge step forward on the outside which is out of position for him. But i'd like to see. I'd like to go to training camp and see josh gordon practicing with the chiefs and see what that looks like. Yeah i'm out on josh gordon of you should be i one jock. Laurie hawkins seed. And i hope he latches on somewhere in his super successful. It has nothing but the best moving forward. I just don't think that's going to be chiefs. The chiefs have a bunch of lottery tickets and at this point in his career makes me sad to say this. But that's what josh gordon is. Mikhael harry stinks. Like he's just a bad football player. So there's no reason for the chiefs to be interested in him if the chiefs are gonna go free agency route again. I don't think this guy significantly improves you. From what you already have. But the only guy. That's available that i would be interested in is dede westbrook again. I don't think that's any sort of significant upgrade. He's basically until we antonio. Calloway and you have antonio calloway already on your roster so i think what they have right now is probably barring some sort of trade or a surprise cut after camp what they're going to have going into the season and that is a little bit concerning because what you're looking at right now as tyreek hill which is great but then mccoll hardman damarcus robinson cornell powell byron pringle and then probably one of marcus camp garrick deeter antonio calloway or daria shepherd. One of those guys probably going to be the final roster spot where the wide receivers that just doesn't inspire a ton of confidence from me. The only guy that i feel good about his tyreek hill and then everybody else is a massive question mark in when i read earlier. This week from nate taylor of the athletes and i quote from the voluntary wait workouts in the teams mandatory minicamp mccoll hardman appears to be in position to have a breakout season as he is expected to have the role previously held by sammy watkins. That's terrifying for me. I i don't think he's a guy that profiles to play in that role sammy. Watkins was a prototypical x. Wide receiver where he can line up. On the line of scrimmage and beat man press coverage that is the opposite of what mccall hardman profiles as in fact the only guy on the team. Maybe you got two of them. That can do that. I think is cornell powell and byron pringle and i don't think those guys are starting level wide receivers at least not right now so i. I don't think they have that guy on the roster today. Listen i. I think as upset before that is something that is being overblown using the words terrified a mike that that feels a pitch strong. That feels a bit strong to use. Sorta josh gordon. And i i hope he hooks up with chip and joanna gaines down in waco. And maybe they can you know do some kind of work with him. Maybe he can help build some houses and work at magnolia farms. I don't i don't particularly well. I think they can help people. I think he got a better chance to his life getting on track them. Come in and play in the national football league. So i'd i'd rather josh gordon. Get to that point but manages i. I just.

Will you get a new contract in twenty twenty one And that could actually be happening here in the next few weeks It's not you know. Most of these questions have been focused on what players are going to be on the field. tyrant matthews obviously going to be on the field and the starting role. The question is What happens after this year and and do the chiefs Want to clear up some more cap space that they can roll over into twenty twenty two. I think they do want to roll some cap space over. I think they do wanna keep matthew for another couple of years at least so. I think that they're working towards Making a deal with him for a new contract But we'll just have to see. Yeah i think my main question when it comes to that is as we're getting our our which national park. Will you be in with that brand new trailer when this news breaks which restaurant will ibn will i be at at the lake of the ozarks or something because we know for sure whenever this news comes through. It's gonna catch us by surprise now. But i in all seriousness. I think that this will happen. I really do. I just do not think you can let someone who's been so important to your franchise go into the final year without an extension. I think it's even to the point like you could look at this levy on bell situation over the weekend. We're tired matthew you you've seen chiefs players where they don't necessarily want to get involved in the weeds and matt's you just said look some guys make excuses some guys don't really in a way like defending andy reid and on twitter and. I don't think i'm exaggerating here. He's becoming like an all time chief that you cannot let this guy go into the season without an extension. You just can't do it. That's all i. That's all i can say. Are they look back on the super bowl championship season. We're going to see tyrod matthew prominently in that in that role. I think we do already. But i think going down the line. We look back on this ten years. We're gonna say tyrant. Matthew was one of the reasons to happen. And just the way he talks about wanting to have a legacy and like very clearly wanting to continue his career for eight years with charles woodson. Stop and why change the number and just a clear cut desire to wanna be in the pro football hall of fame. I always i think. I always try to as someone who covers the team. I always try to take a step back. But i'm with the fan base here. I think this guy needed to be signed yesterday. I didn't necessarily feel this way about chris. Jones i thought they might go in another direction last year. I'm right with the fans when it comes to to tire matthew all right. Let's go to the next question and this is for me. How are the chiefs using cornell. Pal is it in the x. Role or is that going. More to byron pringle. Don't forget we need to figure out a replacement for sammy watkins in that real now. Sometimes i think that gets a little bit overblown when we talk about the question. Because the chiefs have been replacing. Sammy watkins every year. Since i was a player and the chiefs like they've they've mostly done it with demarcus robinson. I think what's interesting about this year. Is that cornell pal and byron pringle could serve you as an upgrade and the chiefs once they drafted cornell pal they very clearly said he's the height and weight threshold. We like it. That position byron pringle has been waiting for this opportunity for years. Now and every time he touches the football. It seems like good things happen. So i wonder if this is more of a pal versus pringle thing than a hardman thing like i still look at hartman in that hardman would hate this if be heard it. And who knows if you're listening. Sorry hardman but psycho glorify de anthony thomas role in a in an advanced set like i. I really look at pailin. Pringle as the next x receiver and i don't think that is necessarily in the cards for hardman. Yeah i think next week. We'll have lots of mccoll hardman pictures on the wall behind you once. He's at me on twitter and watch him rip it thousand yards and put it back to the saudi. Oh yeah well. I think those are all very good questions and and and one of mine a little bit further down. The line was does byron pringle goodies chance this year. You know at some point. He's got to get that chance with the chiefs. They're very high on him He produces when he gets the opportunities and And at some point they're going to have to give him that chance to to be that guy but now they've got this other receiver fits that same mold so competition is always good. It's going to be good to see these guys fighting each other out at jodi. Fortson is going to be in that. Mix as well as another guy. Who's a little bit bigger and conserve that kind of a role that they like They've kept him around the practice squad for a year to see what he's all about so it's gonna be an interesting battle. I think to see what they do to replace sammy. Watkins and on powell. I think adds to that. Fourteen is interesting to me. This bigger body that you're right they have kind kept around since nineteen in one way or another. Yeah and you know who that they did that. With dimitrios harris and then all of a sudden harris came out of the woodwork and was a pretty decent contributor as a number two tight end for the funny. I look at him that way. Now isn't it the chiefs of not replaced dimitrius. Now they have not. They might this year. Which could be another question teaser. But.

"They ended up Not long after that they drafted Rondell bore. Yes. So to me that was puzzling and then New England, not drafting a wide receiver for the seven Round they started camera were grown in the fifth. They could've had Marquise Stephenson, Frank Darby, Shy Smithsonian Folk. Oh, Mike, Strong, Cornell Pal. There was receivers there. They took the linebacker from Michigan. So the fact that the Patriots didn't take a wide receiver. They got Kendrick for Nelson. Haggle Lord Jacoby Meyers to kill Harry now Trade Nixon, who they drafted the seventh round a strong wide receiver, draft. No receiver until the seventh. Surprise me for New England. So I'm going to my team That surprised me. And I understand that Just one player is really what matters for this draft class. And you could end up being the best by far. Trevor Laurence going the Jaguars, But you look at the subsequent picks after that, And there were some some the There were some that before to me just a little bit. First of all, Travis E T. A in the first round. I'm part of the Mel Kiper School where first round running backs are rarely gonna earn significant praise from me, especially when you have a backfield that include Chance Robinson, who was phenomenal for them. Last year at the Illinois State, an undrafted free agent, and then you sign Carlos Hyde to be a power back to a two year deal this offseason. Overmyer conceded that the player there really one of the pick number 25 was good areas. Tony who would have understood a little bit more. There you go down from there. This was a draft that was defined by a lot of things, but one of them includes lack of medical information. The Jaguars went on to use relatively premium picks on locker. Little played one game over the past two seasons because of significant injuries and opt out. Obviously, he plays an important vision that left tackle. But there is some question marks about already. He would be to be a left tackle any time soon in the NFL and then a little further down and take Andre Cisco one of the best safeties in this class, But he also missed a bunch of time last year because of a torn a C L and obviously hampered him during the pre draft process, So I think just the idea that you're taking Actually, but that's on players was never get injuries. Plus, the first round running back had me a little bit were confused on Jacksonville. But again, Trevor Laurence might be enough to make any other draft pick on their roster this year. Sort of a back burner fun very best, and I know talking to urban a lot leading up to the draft. Certainly Tony was one of the guys on the short list, but he They didn't think And I know another team wanted. Trading up. Didn't think that Et en would even be available in that 23 25 range because there was a lot of e think two different people that I talked to in the league had heard that buffalo was trying to trade up from 30. Maybe to go get ET en didn't think he'd be available so Yeah. Yeah, I understand some of the durability stuff is concerning. But those first two picks plus the fact their teammates. I think it's It's gonna build a really good culture with two guys that are the highest football character.
NFL: Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah & Bucky Brooks
"cornell pal" Discussed on NFL: Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah & Bucky Brooks
"And now move the sticks with daniel jeremiah and bookie brooks. What's up everybody. Welcome to move the six presented by castrol edge dana. Jeremiah joined by my partner bucky brooks and bucky. We are officially in draft season. No combine this year but the pro days are underway and we have a lot to get to on today's show. Yeah we have a lot to get to because of the first official week abroad as we're seeing guys run get some measurable and it's important because without a combine unlimited access to the players these measurements and metrics really really mattered. No doubt we're going to have the clemson pro day. Some updated information on that our evaluation of some of their top players. Coming up here in just a second but do want you to stick around for later on the show because what we've been doing with pro on prospect where we take somebody that's at the professional level a player that's been compared to a current draft prospect. And we get a chance to have him evaluate the college players. So we're going to do that with jk dobbins. We won't tell you what running back he's going to be evaluating. We're also going to take the jets and door move the sticks body shop and see if we can't try and fix them a wisdom ideas with free agency as well as the draft so be on the lookout for that a little bit later on in the show. But let's kick things off your first big pro day and that takes place at clemson buck where we have some real interesting players really highlighted. I would say by travis n. who's in my opinion. He's atop brian back. I believe the is the number two running back in this draft class but a pretty special football player. Yeah he's a very very special football player and look. He didn't disappoint you. Comes in weighing two hundred. Fifteen pounds runs reported times in the four range. You get a chance to see him. Run around and catch. The ball made some great catches displaying his hands. And so it really comes down to now when you check off the boxes for him. Where's a great fit for him because he certainly is in every dow running back. He's one of those new school running. Back that can play in any system is really just a matter of when will you hear his name when the tag off the board i talked to scout was there and he said on his watch she had him at four four one and at four four three which is plenty fast he did two hundred and fifteen pounds and talking to some folks that have visited with him the other day he'd got up to eighteen to nineteen and training. I think he really wanted to add some bulk for context. He played around two. Oh to nine to ten. And that range so i think adding some of that bulk probably's what produced that low four. Four time you heard about previously was he would run in a low four threes and you see that speed on tape it translates and so when i'm trying to figure out who does this guy remind me of what i'm studying him. I go back to jamaal charles when he was coming out of texas. I see a lot of the same things when the foot is in the ground and he gets up field. There's a special burst there and there's some sneaky strength as well you guys bounce off him once he gets out in the open field yeah. The comparison is very valid. one Running style very similar one cup runners. But then the way that i envision it's being utilized in the passing game screens swings things that allow him to touch the ball in space where he has a little more room to dazzling create jamaal. Charles made a living at that as a pro runner. I think travis at the end can certainly follow in those footsteps are. Let's let's get onto some of these other clemson players got a couple of intriguing. Wideouts here when you look at amari rogers and cornell powell the times again from a scout the scout amari rogers was four five four four five. Oh cornell pal four five four four five three. But we're seeing amari rogers here on the screen book not not just lined up in the slaughter outside at this pro you see him actually lined up. Get some running back wraps. Yeah i think what happened with the maurie rodgers when you look at him physically. He's built like a running back contacted two hundred and twelve pounds. it's huge four slot receiver. And then you put him in the workout. You put them in running back. You can begin to talk yourself answering the possibility of him being not quite as dynamic as an antonio gibson but being one of those players that you utilize in a utility role maybe this lot maybe the third down back out of the backfield catching passes but he certainly is a weapon. And i think what scallops are trying to do is give him the best opportunity to get on the field so the offense coordinator can see with his imagination. You know what amaury rods could be very very valuable player for us when you watch him at clemson you see the quick hitters. You'll see him work in the same. He's a really really tough kid. We talk it'd be built like a running back. Also get him the ball on some jet sweep so to be able to line him up at one one snap in the slot. Hit him with the jet sweep. You can line them up in the backfield and ralph with him out of the backfield to me and gives you a lot of variety of what you can do with. His skill set also can help you return some kicks if you need that is well. How about cornell powell and what you saw from him. I mentioned the time. Four five four four five three. What did you think of him as a player. When i think he's a body beautiful athlete. You see him. He is big broad shoulders. You like to think that he would be able to do. The dirty work really came into his own this year. More of a mover has a bill that you talked about those times into four for our brains. That's about how he played tape. I think he's another big body. Why y receiver that you throw into the mix maybe third or fourth receiver who also gives you some contributions on special teams. Well you mentioned special teams. He did it at clemson. This somebody had to wait his turn behind a long list of quality wide receivers. They've had their dabble. Sweeney's done a wonderful job of recruiting that position. But i've seen them you see him as a gun or on pot where he's outstanding that toughness translates to special teams. And you don't have to wonder about it. You can actually see him do that on the tape. He's a little bit tight. I think you can see that through some of the workouts as well. But i think he's gonna end up going on day three but i'm with you. I think you try tried find a role third fourth receiver and he's going to have value on fourth downs because of his ability to cover kicks. So it's gonna be interesting class. There i would add jackson carmen. The offensive tackle from clemson did not work out. He had back surgery right after the season. So we'll see how that impacts him as he goes to the draft process most likely still a day two pick. They're coming out of clemson. Really one of the few really good offensive. Linemen clemson has produced. It's been the one whole program are let's get. Let's keep the receiver talk going here baucau. There's so many wideouts in this draft class as we saw last year really the last couple years again. We have it this year. Have nineteen receivers. That i have you know top three round grades on so i figured let's go day one day to day three and just highlight maybe not the best guy but but somebody that you really really have an affinity for. You'd stand on the table for you ready to roll. Let's start let's start day one day one receiver that you could fight for in the room. Well i'm gonna give you yeah was a borderline day. One receiving i'm say terrorists marcher from lsu and the reason. Why terrorists more so to me is intriguing this year to step in and really occupied the lead road. Marchetto is and there. obviously justin. Jefferson had moved on to the national football league and he responded with a nice year over. Seven hundred. Receiving yards has. Ten touchdowns has twenty three touchdowns in his career. So when you think about gas who can put the ball into paint who can make plays down to red zone terrorist. Marshall.
