"And let's do this. Yeah, I was waiting for you well, I have some time. I'm going to wait for, I'm going to wait for a little bit of cover here because this guy is going to be tough to draft. And explain to the fan base right now. So we're just going to go on sort of tinkering with the rest of the roster here. Elijah penny, the big pickup, undrafted, out of Idaho. Just a talented talented individual can do a lot. Yeah. That's what you used to call them back in the day. That's right. So comes blessed by Joe judge. And who doesn't get excited about that? Yeah. So, yeah, so how about this? Still not officially retired. I think every time, are you going to take Andrew Luck? No. That would have been a really crappy thing to do, wouldn't it? So Richie incognito. I don't know if he's still available. I don't know what his future plans are, but. He does play well, right? Like when they put like even in his into his deep 30s, whatever you want to say about the guy, you know, but he's pretty good, you know? You've got to give the line for your press conference, you know, our culture will fix him. Yeah, I mean, boy. As much as I criticize GMs, I'm dangerously headed towards wrong. Dangerously headed into a wrong territory. Boy, looking at these edge guys, I think I'm gonna go Jason Pierre Paul. How did he last until now? Because, I mean, look, he kind of started to look as age a little bit last year, right? And what I will bank on is, you know, he played, what was it? 20 games in the 2020 season now granted, he probably played almost that last year with the bucks going into the divisional round in a 17 game regular season, but I just, I mean, if I'm a real-life GM, the thought of having him as sort of my third edge guy to rotate in is really enticing. I'm surprised out there. Those are kind of both my edge guys right now in Melvin Ingram and now Jason Pierre Paul. Yeah, I mean, this is Slim Pickens at this point. This reminds me of..

"All right, I am going back to the offensive line here. I got my two tackles. I have my center JC treader. I'm going to go with Laurent duvernay. Tardif. Put him out one of the tackle spots and, you know, kind of forgotten man when he missed the 2020 season to go treat COVID patients up in up in Quebec. I believe it was. But he held his own well enough last year in that jets offensive line. And again, we're not talking about guys at anyone's excited to plug into their lineups in real life, but if you had to start him for like, you know, 6 games next season, you're probably feeling pretty okay about it. Yeah, speak for yourself. That was one of my guys. I was just kind of waiting. I was hoping he would just fall, you know, I had a 31st round grade on him, and you took him in the 30th, you know? I'm gonna dangle him for will fuller here. Okay, fair enough. So I am going to go, boy, talk about thin markets. Give me give me tart. Because that's safety. That's safety market is disappearing in a hot second here. It's dicey and it's bad. Those are the guys who come years ago were kind of lasting deep into free agency. I feel like safety was a spot where you could kind of look around in May and June and be like, oh, okay, well here, we got a starter now. Yeah. Gosh, I am looking at these interior linemen and it is not great. I feel like I'm looking at the two former Bengals guys who are their former Bengals for a reason at this point, but Quentin Spain and TRE Hopkins. And I think I like Spain better than Hopkins at this point to fill out my offensive line. Again, I don't feel great about it, but he was, he was a serviceable starter for a couple of years. He was pretty decent in Buffalo. He's 30 years old. You know, I'll get him in this veteran offensive line. And I think we'll get things figured out up front. Okay. So this might, this might sort of start tipping the scales. And giving everyone a little bit of an indication of where I'm going. With this roster. But I think it's all going to start to make sense here. My running back, and here's the prestige, right? It's not a running back. It's Elijah penny, the fullback from the Giants. We're going big up front. I know what you're going to do. And you can't stop it. 'cause I almost took Lee Smith that at tight end for this reason. Ah. And you can't stop it. It's so good. So excited. The only way I can counter that oh man, the safety tandem is going to be awesome now that I now that I say it out loud. I'm going to get Andrew Zendaya. As my other safety and just have, I mean, that's it. I know your quarterback is, we're just going to we're loading the box with 11..

"Full back? The two names I keep throwing out. If it's in free agency, it's Elijah penny. If it's in the draft, it's Connor Hayward. Both of those guys are utility fullbacks. They're just aren't a ton of those blocking fullbacks available anymore. They might really have to dig to find one. When I say there isn't one in the draft, the board I use goes, I think it was like 550 players deep. And trust me, I'm not necessarily familiar with every player on the board, but I sort it by position a lot. Connor Hayward's the only fullback. So it goes 566 players deep. There's board. Shout out Isaiah land linebacker Florida a and M. What was I saying? Yeah, so if they want to find a true blocking fullback and they're not doing it in free agency, they're going to have to go to Canada. They're going to be the international pathway program again. Right. I mean, this is beyond the USFL at this point. Japan plays college football. I know Norway does. I'm missing an obvious one. Arena league. But yeah, I mean, that might be what you're talking about. There's guys out there. There's just, you know, we get in the weeds, right? With this stuff, yeah, we're talking beyond our knowledge. Than that. Which is why I think they're going utility. I think they would have kept Jakob Johnson if they wanted that role. I think they're going to go with the utility fullback. Ben mason real quick, not on the roster anymore. He signed a futures deal with the ravens. And that's the other thing. Yeah. Some of these guys are going to get cut. They may just be like, eh, we'll throw whoever will throw William Sherman at fullback throughout camp and then somebody will break free and we'll sign them off for practice squad or claim him on waivers or whatever before the season starts. That could very much be the plan too. Yeah, as much as it drives me crazy just from a big picture standpoint and the fact that you're just your maximum point production is so much lower as a team when you run a team out of 21 regular the way the Patriots have in the past couple of years. But their production and their efficiency at a 21 personnel has been the best out of any personnel grouping that they've been in pretty much going on since the 2018 season, right? It's been three or four years now where 21 has been their most productive grouping. Why? Because they're averaging over four yards per carry on the ground when they're in 21. And number two, their play action passing game is fantastic added 21 personnel. And they leave the full back through the whole, they get everybody to jump up, they hit the tight ends and their slot receivers crossing over the middle. It's a difficult play to stop. They've been running it like the same way for ten years. Now,.
