"Rich. I'm excited about day two of the NFL Draft. It's the second and third round for the draft. For me, I was a third round pick, pick number 78. So I always have an affinity for watching that second third round because there's some outstanding players who go in the second round and actually make more of a career than sometimes the first rounders. And so we were kind of doing an exercise before the show of thinking about second round draft picks, what could they be and for me, I'm always about rewinding to three seasons ago. Three seasons ago was a 2020 NFL Draft. And so with a lot of the first round picks come next Tuesday, the 5th year option has to be exercised. That to me tells me if a team got it right or they got it wrong. Case in point, Daniel Jones was not awarded his 5th year option because the Giants didn't know what they had. Well, he went out, played well, ended up getting a new contract. So they were just kind of on the fence. There's a lot of guys that won't get that contract extended for the 5th year option on Tuesday, but that was more about the first rounders. I want to go back to that 2020 draft, fellas, just to look at some of the names in the 2020 draft in the second round. They get people excited about watching the NFL Draft tonight because in 2020, I want you to think about this. I'll give you a couple names for the first round in 2020. And then think about how loaded the second round of that 2020 NFL Draft was. And the first round obviously names like Joe burrow and chase young, Justin Herbert, to a tongue of viola, you can throw in Tristan wurf's CD lamb, Justin Jefferson, Jalen riger was a name, obviously a couple guys on some different teams already. But here's the second round. The second round of the 2020 NFL Draft just a couple names for you. T Higgins, why receiver Cincinnati? Michael Pittman, why receiver in Minneapolis colts? Deandre swift, Xavier McKinney, a safety for the Giants. Kyle Duggar started safety for the New England Patriots. I know you like that one. Jonathan Taylor running back Indianapolis Colts Antoine Winfield junior won a Super Bowl. His rookie year. Now the outstanding safety and starter for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers grant help it was a starter. Daryl Taylor was pick number 48. This is Daryl Taylor yes. Leads to Seattle Seahawks in sex last year, their team leader. Trayvon Diggs, I've heard that guy before. Cornerback. These are all second round draft picks, just a couple seasons ago. The highlight of the draft class. Well, he was the highest paid the biggest contract in NFL history for about ten minutes. But Jalen hurts, who was at pick 53. AJ, JK dobbins, also second round picks, van Jefferson with the rams, Christian Fulton, AJ Dillon, the running back. For the Green Bay Packers, Jeremy chin was picked 64. Oh, was the defensive player of the year? It should have been defensive player dude. I know they gave it to chase young and all that, but it was Jeremy chairman. Jeremy chin was that dude. So I bring that up because the second round tonight in third round of the NFL Draft are gonna have some outstanding players to look forward to seeing, just fast forward to last year. Think about some of these names that were picked in the second round just last year, a season ago. Remember, George pickens. And look at what he kind of came out out of the blue in the first round for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Christian Watson, how did he come on in the second half for Green Bay? And then quarterback Aaron Rodgers, looking for him to take a big leap. Breece hall was actually the offensive player of the year at the halfway point for rookies. An injury kind of derailed that for him, but Jalen Petrie is a starter for the Houston Texans. Kyler Gordon's a starter with the Chicago Bears, Ken walker. Was the outstanding. We just were talking kid and walker a little bit. Second round pick. Last year, having a monster year, Josh Pascal, jaquan brisker starting safety for the Chicago Bears, taekwon Thornton. Are we on the fence still about taekwon Thornton? I think he can play. He can play, but second round pick for the New England Patriots. A guy who was a big, big part for the Kansas City Chiefs, especially in the playoffs, Skye Moore, second round pick. I'll send a player. I'm just going through all this list of guys, and I'm saying, Drake Jackson, Brian cook, James cook, the running back with the Buffalo Bills. So that's why I'm going to tune in to the second round because there's a lot of talent that's still there. You may not be the first round guy, but second and third round guys definitely get an opportunity. You're going in to start. You're going into play. And that's what these part of the draft really feels like. That you may not remember the name. It all of a sudden you're watching, hey, man, this guy's pretty good. Oh, I didn't expect us to have him start. Oh, look at where he's become, that's what the NFL is all about. Some of the names, the influx of talent. I'm looking forward to seeing it tonight. In the third round to get in, but then also trying to balance watching the NBA and all the fans at Chase center. Steph Curry telling people, make sure you have those butts in those seats. Have you been, have you been in San Francisco about four 35 o'clock trying to get to the Chase center? It is not going to be easy. Hopefully that place is packed. I know it will be packed, but maybe more around 6 o'clock than 5 o'clock local time. Because of all the traffic, but it'd be interesting to see how that game looks, and then who will be watching the draft. I will be watching both. Wrestling fans feel the podcast heat.

Bet The Board

"Yeah, I mean, a lot of recreational betters are going to bet with their heart and that is that ultimately why they fail and unfortunately I have to say this. It's the reason there is an actual market to the reason we're able to bet into said market. Mostly, although that's becoming a little bit different. I was going to say depends where and when I mean said market market cap may be about $72 in certain spots. Without people betting with their heart, there's no market for professional betters to attack. So to your point, I think I mentioned there's a couple rogue shops in Colorado that we're offering three and I just completely slipped my mind, but even as we were recording on Thursday, prior to that, there were a bunch of rogue shops in the tri state area that you could have got three on the chiefs and listen, I think books understood that they were going to be overloaded in that area with eagles money. And when it falls that way, it's probably not going to be a good experience. I was a little surprised by the vagus numbers, not necessarily handle being down, but that they did decently well because they were a little inundated with some eagles money, right? And you had the over, you had the first half over, you got the defensive touchdown. Some of the long shot anytime touchdown props hit. Skye Moore, I think, was piqued at like 11 to one. You had some Kelsey any time touched down. That was probably their largest liability in terms of any time touchdown. And I think every single eagles receiver from devonta Smith to AJ Brown went over, juju went over. I mean, a lot of those guys virtually to your point earlier, every Kelsey passing yards number went over aside from a couple of rogue 83 and a half. So I was surprised that it was a decent sized winner for the people. Well, they've actually reduced the numbers and I'm not sure if you saw it. It looked like initially it looked initially like it was like 7.4%. It looked like it was about 12 million. I want to say on roughly a 150 million in handle. The revised numbers that came out yesterday were closer to 5 and a half million. So that number came down substantially. And it is. And I won't claim to know the reporting methods in other states. It also should come with the caveat when you look at Nevada. All of the futures bets on the NFL for the Super Bowl post on Super Bowl Sunday. So that typically props up a lot of the figures that you've seen in the state of Nevada. And maybe the reason that the numbers, even after the reduction in overall win, still look a little bit better on the surface. Honestly, the only player prop that I could think of that helped the books in any capacity would have been to some extent what we talked about in the Philadelphia backfield, but those guys aren't generating a lot of buzz. The fact that all of them are homes numbers other than touchdowns, completions, attempts and yards all come in under as well. Across the board miles Sanders was the biggest loser for professional betters, all the guys that I speak with. I mean, over attempts over rushing yards at 55 and a half, 57 and a half, most rushing yards of the game plus one 75 plus one 60 down to plus one 40. Those were all substantial losers for a lot of the sharpest guys who were focused in on my. I had a couple of physical tickets if anybody wanted to turn them into a coaster, Philadelphia Eagles fans out there want a little bit of nostalgia. And you mentioned numbers. I didn't tell you this story. One of my buddies plays through a smaller local shop in eastern Pennsylvania, still couldn't get himself as a die hard eagles fan to take the chiefs plus three and a half. I asked him what the limits were. He told me it wasn't going to be worth my time trying to track down a couple of those dollars, but it just goes to show that there are some of those prices still out there and their avenues to get some of the best numbers available. I didn't do it at the time. Rumor has it, Todd miles Sanders is still running sideways on the opening. Hey, you know what? At least he broke a couple of tackles, but every tackle he broke. He lost another half a yard. So I'm not quite sure what the productivity level there was. By any stretch, but yeah, definitely not the best way to try and get the running backs on track. Should have done at the top of the show or the middle, but I figure if people have been listening to us for the last 35 plus minutes, they already know who they're hearing from. You can follow pain on Twitter at pain inside or I'm Todd fuhrman, you can follow me there. And normally, pain, I mean, this is where we go into the best bet portion of the show. We're not telling anybody to tie up money in futures markets for 360 days. So I'm actually going to flip the onus back to our loyal listenership and give them a little bit of a homework assignment that's going to be near and dear to me that I didn't tell you about before we were going to record. So I love a good surprise. We are doing something a little bit unique as you've told our listeners before. I'll be tying the knot in late April. And we're still trying to stay on brand for that particular event. So what we want to try and set up is a little bit of a prop contest for those guests in attendance, and we may share it online as well. But I want to open up the Pandora's box tour listeners. Stay obviously within boundaries. My better half is on social media to offer up props that you would like to see on a parlay card of sorts around a wedding, whether it's, you know, first member of the wedding party to cry, will somebody fall down walking down the aisle. Be smart, be tactful. But want to have a little bit of fun with our loyal listeners who love to bust my chops and rightfully. So we feel like we know them, they know us. So wanted to throw that out there to them on this podcast format and see what they kind of come up with. Beautiful. I like that. How many, how many things are going to show up on this? It all did. It all depends. How many were going to know we're figuring? Yeah, I mean, four to 5 years. And if there's better ones that are there, we'll get a little creative, but you know, we did our engagement shooting a sports book. We figure out the stick with the gambling theme at least in some capacity. So getting some wedding props into the mix found was something that we thought could be a lot of fun and what better way than a crowd source. Some of those potential possibilities, then with our core demo, our listeners about the board that have been with us either a full season or for some of the folks been out with us since 2014 for 500 plus episodes. I got to tell you, it's extremely tacky, but if you're looking to capitalize a little bit on this wedding, one of the props has to be fattest envelope. And you know what? That's going to work out in your favor. Well, you know what? Just because there's going to be a lot of people. You have to be open with that kind of thing. I mean, fast, you can't put individual names, although you do have a pretty distinguished pecking order. I'm sure of how that would be. But I think you have to break it into groupings. Like, is it family member? Is it member of the wedding party? Those kind of distinctions more so than anything else. Yes, if I'm setting odds like an MVP of the Super Bowl or any time touchdown score, I got a pretty good idea and there's going to be a lot of hurt feelings for people that aren't even going to be a hundred to one

"This man called Super Bowl 57 on Westwood one radio after, by the way, 6 plus hours of the 8 and a half, we gave him grief for Tapping out, but he's only talking to a nation in a world for the Super Bowl, but that is not easy. Especially since he also ate hot wings during a prediction segment. Did you see that? What was that? I mean, this was a monumental Super Sunday effort, probably on par with being the last guy to win the MVP of the year and the MVP of the Super Bowl, prior to mahomes. This is the introduction for Kurt Warner back here in the riches. How are you doing Kirk? I'm good, my man, how are you? I'm great. I mean, what a day for you Sunday, man. What a day? It is a long day, but the energy of that day and the fans and obviously the awesome blessing of being able to call the Super Bowl and what a great game that was. I mean, the energy just kind of carries you. As you know, you get that long day and as soon as you kind of sit down and take a deep breath is when it really hits you, but it's just fun. It's culmination of everything that we do. It's always a great week and then finishing up obviously a long day on Sunday, but it's a fun day on Sunday for all of us our show was great and then it was great to call the game. And then the show began with the Super Bowl. I don't know if you're aware, but this was deep buried in the NFL network research packet. First Super Bowl since Super Bowl 32 Kurt, Super Bowl 32, where both teams came out and scored a touchdown in their offensive positions. Their first ones. That was the first. They came out smoking. Both teams. You know that's funny because I was actually looking into that as my bold prediction that the boat's going to score in the first drive. Then our researchers said, hi, it actually happens all the time. So I'm like, okay, I'll go find something else. So interesting that it hasn't happened since 32. Oh, are you throwing Ben under the bus for not giving you the full prediction idea? It must have happened lots before that because I think I'm sure he just looked it up and go, oh, it's happened 15 times or whatever. Not since Super Bowl 32. Not since two before your first Kurt. You know? Not like the nugget. What do you what do you think of, I guess, screw it, I'll just start with the end. What did you think of the holding call? Kurt at the end. You know, I mean, I'm one of those that I see exactly why they called it. It's always one of those things. I always try to step back and be objective and go, okay, can I see why they called it? Yeah, I fully see why they call it. Although it looks like a very little penalty, when you're back there as a quarterback and a guy is running that kind of route where you go in one way, you stop and then you separate back the other way. A little pull like that does two things. The first thing it does is obviously it slows your guy out down coming out. Where I think he would have probably gone there. But it also helps the defender to speed up. And so what's really hard about that is even if it's not very big, it puts that defender in a position that scares you to death to throw that because your guys coming towards him. He's going the other direction. And that's a pick 6 waiting to happen. And so although it looks small on a route like that, it's extremely big because of that separation that happens when you're going one direction, the defenders going that direction, you stop quick and you separate, it's easy to create a nice little window there that I think Patrick Mahomes throws the football. So although it looks like a very little thing. And there wasn't a lot of movement on the play. That hold and you saw it. I mean, everybody saw the grabbed the Jersey and the Jersey was pulled. That nobody wants it to happen in that moment. I get it. But I think it was the right call. And I do think he probably completes that pass. If there's not a hole there and who knows, I don't know, does he get the first down? Does it change everything? I'm not really sure there. But I'm objectively saying I understand 100% why it was called. And anytime there's a pull of the Jersey to me, it's always the easiest call for an official to make as he looks over there and you see Jersey in the hand of the defender and pulling away from the receiver. It's an easy one to call even though we all would have liked to have not had a penalty there. Right. And then it seemed that juju was running a route similar to routes being run successfully in the second half of the game. What do you think Andy Reid the enemy in the rest of the staff saw as they sifted through eagles, defensive tape in the bi week, all biweek long all week long that they exploited to success in the second half? Yeah. Well, follow me here. So they had a play earlier in the game where sky more down in the red zone where Skye Moore started on one side of the ball and motion to the other side of the ball. And so when he did that, they were in man to man coverage. The guy covering him man, I think it was slaying that particular case. He went all the way across the other side and stopped. And so sleigh, as he was coming across, bounced to kind of a free safety position. And they rocked a guy from the other side of the free safety down to cover him on the other side. So we went from one side to the other he stopped, then he went back and then when he went back, they rocked it the same way. So slay ended up covering him. They actually ran the ball there. I think it might have been a touchdown there with Pacheco. So they came back later in the game and did that same thing twice, where it was short motion as if they were going to cross the field. And as they did that, the guy covered in man was going to bounce into the free safety spot and they were going to rocket the other way. And both times the receiver started and then he stopped and bounced back to the outside. So as the rotation was happening by the defense, they were looking to get back into their positions, assuming the receiver was going to the other side. He stayed on that side. They got out of position and he bounces out and he's wide open because they catch them kind of mid transition defensively. And so it was a great job whether they saw it coming into the game or whether they sought earlier on that play where sky more motion to both sides and they say, oh, they're rocking both ways. They came back and called it. And the beautiful thing is the first one to Tony was actually an RPO. And so there was a run play call. So Patrick wouldn't have had to throw it. He was just looking to see with that motion, did slay start to rock and get past that position. Sure enough, he did. So he could have handed it off if they did something different. They didn't, he pops it out there for an easy touchdown and then they come back and run a similar play later. Wow. That's all I got to say is, wow, Kurt. So by the way, that's one of the many reasons why I love you. A great way to describe something on film without the benefit of us watching it as you were describing it. That said, so when do you, when do you communicate that? When do you use a quarterback receive this information about what somebody either upstairs or on the sideline is seeing on a run play earlier in the game based on the coverage that's being displayed by the defense, when does that get communicated in mahomes to say, hey, on an RPO, look for that. And your guy will be wide open. Probably as soon as you come over to the sideline after that touchdown, that we hand it off. And they come back because a lot of times you do put similar things like that.

"I'm sure they would joke. Anybody who's putting that out there is just trying to be funny. Well, can I give you a couple other bad takes? All right, let's hear them. Well, there was the obvious ones. The refs and the field were in the game for the eagles. That one is out there. And then this one was my favorite. I saw this one floating around. The reason Andy Reid was able to make such good halftime adjustments. Was because the halftime show was so long because Rihanna had a catalog of somebody hits. Isn't a halftime show always long. This is the longest one. Then it was in the past? Yeah. Well, I hope she was wearing red, so she was waiting for the cheeks to give Andy. I mean, the halftime adjustment or the hugest adjustment was that motion whip route. It wasn't a complicated adjustment. It was like, they're going to try to pass it off and once you motion down inside and then you'll run back outside and be wide open to Darius Tony and Skye Moore. And then they did it with juju, and that was the holding call was because the eagles adjusted to that motion into a whip route with putting Bradbury up and pressed and Bradbury got beat. So he grabs, which like I completely understand. It's a tough route to cover, especially when passion went homes can place the ball. So yeah, I mean, that wasn't a hard adjustment to put in. I didn't see anything else significant. Do you think the eagles defensive fraudulent? Obviously, the offense wasn't. But the reason they gave 34 and 40 when they played Prescott and Rogers was the only good quarterbacks they played. They had a weird path and now this. Yeah, it all season long. They've been more talented than most dreams. And when you do that, you don't have to do complex game plans from game to game. And they didn't do I'm not saying they came in here and just ran all the same right off stuff, they didn't adjust at all. But they didn't do much. That was challenging. The eagles, and they are challenging the chiefs, and they didn't have that many counter punches.

"The smartest way to hire. All right, news segment, starting with the chiefs. That is my number one ride or die, plant my flag team. I think with the chiefs, you either have to say they're going to be better, they're going to be worse, but you can't say they're the same because they're not because tyreek hill is no longer on the team. And they're shifting what they want to do offensively. At least a little bit. I think from by all accounts, they got pretty spooked by how defenses were just playing them last year and just kind of daring them to run the ball and they weren't really equipped to run the ball that hill couldn't really black. Kelsey can't really block and they just Cincinnati and a couple other teams. Definitely stumbled on some sort of recipe that they have now fixed. I am planning my flag on the KC will be better. Real estate. I said this on Tuesday's pod. They offensive line, which basically it's the first full year together. But for the most part there together, they bested heavily in it. They struck oil with their center that they drafted. And they've just created they have the best offensive line in the league or the second best offensive line. And for me, mahomes plus time is the scariest thing in the league. And I don't really care who has receivers are because if he has three to 5 to 7 seconds to throw every play, guys are going to get open and he's going to find them. And there's also a little bit of that whole just incredibly embarrassing playoff loss. There's some borough Herbert buzz. Josh Allen. The little Josh Allen, there's a little bit of the rocky four running around on the mountain. He's trying to see how high you can go with the parka on to the mahomes season. I'm all in. I'm going to pick them to win the Super Bowl and that's my team. This is the stuff that Kansas City Chiefs fans have been looking for because Bill. I'm in the same boat. We never talked about this. I almost don't like the fact that you did all that spiel because that would have been my spiel. And I'll go even further with it. Mahomes is a different cat. And I've gotten to know him a little bit. And this off season I spent some time in Kansas City and this guy watches everything. And when I say watches everything, I mean, he watches what people say, he watches how teams are reacting, how other teams are responding, but he's taking notes on all this. And there have been analysts out there who have said that the chiefs are going to be the fourth place team in the AFC west. There are others who have crowned Josh Allen as already, you know, the top player in the league and mahones has been sitting back there and waiting. And watching. And this room of wide receivers is not tyreek hill. It is a variety of guys. And juju, prior to the injury, he'll be fine, has looked amazing as a number one guy. Marques valdes scantling, who quite frankly, Rogers lost trust in because he wasn't running the right route at times. He wasn't always there. Mahomes, different type of person in the huddle. I think that's going to work. Skye Moore, The Rookie, excellent so far. Justin Watson out of the University of Pennsylvania who came fantasy. Justin Watson, who wears number 84, has been a beast in practice. And then you add all the different big men at tight end with Kelsey and fortson and Noah gray. There are weapons and Pacheco. Number ten, the new running back from Rutgers, like awesome. This is the type of team that everyone's going to discount and say, well, is this the year they fall off a cliff and mulholland isn't going to let it happen. And I trust mahomes and Andy Reid. And maybe I trust them to a fault, but all the reasons you said, and they might have the best young defenders in Nick Bolton at number 54 who's right there playing the linebacker spot. Their second round pick last year. And they believe that they've got in luxurious need and 32, the safety, they've got a great young defensive backfield. You know, everyone's reaction was, how could you not sign the honey badger? There's a reason they don't resign the honey badger. They think about Frank Clark, come back here. Frank Clark, come back here, Chris Jones. Chris Jones playing in the right spot for the whole season? I'm telling you, they are, they are very bullish on themselves in that building, but not in a boastful way, but just that yeah, you guys talk about tyreek all you want and good luck to tyreek, but all that stuff, they've been stacking the chips. And I feel like you've seen it in the preseason games. They're lights out. I know it's just preseason, but mahomes doesn't have to play in these games. I think there's a bit of him and Andy wanting to show the world, all right. All right, doubt us. You should doubt us. Go for it. And I'm not going to be one of those people to do that. Who's had the most wins the last 9 years? Chiefs? 103.

"And everybody that wants to go back and use like Cooper Cup and Keenan Allen and devonte Adams was like a mid four 5s guy or whoever, that was 5, ten years ago, guys. Like, this is a different day, right? This is a different leak. If you're not fast in today's NFL and this wide open game that they play now, then it does make a difference. I think the days of the guys like Cooper Cup coming out of nowhere with a four 6 and being able to really play at an all pro level in the NFL, I just don't see that translating anymore. I just don't see it, I don't think we're there anymore. I think guys are too fast. There are two fast. There are two athletic to be able to succeed at that point unless you are a Mike Williams type who's just going to go out there and moss everybody, right? I mean, that's one thing. But if you're going to be a route runner, like David bell is at four 6 5, I don't see it as being a high draft choice. I don't think the tape is decent. I don't know how you drop that guy in the top 100 in 2022. It just doesn't feel good. Well, I would add too. I mean, the two guys you named their Devante Adams and Cooper Cup, right? Even those guys obviously became elite receivers. It might have been the two best receivers or two of the best receivers in football last year. Right. It took them a couple of years to get to that point. Yeah. Right? And some of that is, you know, they were buried on depth charts or whatever, but it's also it's longer development. You're not going to take a guy whose two or three years away as early as you take, you know, a guy who can come in and contribute on day one. So even if you see that time from bell and you think, all right, well, you know, he still can be good in a couple of years. That's a fine evaluation if that's the evaluation you want to have, but you need to know that means that he's going to go behind a guy like a sky more just to pull name out of my head. I know they're kind of different receivers, but he's going to be behind a guy like Skye Moore who can contribute right away. Or even honestly, even behind a guy like Christian Watson, who's maybe a year away, as opposed to two or three years away..

"Surprised by his role. I would say in Rutgers offense. A lot of verticals. This is a guy that you can see the four three speed, but it's all on vertical routes up the field. Post double moves, things even on the outside. Not necessarily even playing out of the slot. I expect his role to change pretty significantly. I would think depending on the offense he goes to, obviously. But there weren't a ton of exposures or reps of him running quick Twitch, little underneath routes, right? And he's not running the option series. And Rutgers is offense. I'm not saying he can't do it. It just wasn't a whole lot of evidence of him doing it in college. Right. So this might be more of a vertical type receiver than what people expect when they hear his athletic profile. Yeah, he did a little more of it at the senior bowl. I don't know how much of that you went back and looked at now that you're taking a closer look at him. But we talked about it yesterday. You know, Mac has had in Alabama, a ton of success with that vertical slot receiver. The other interesting thing to me about melting, and this is one of the things that really set him apart yesterday. Even beyond the testing, you know, where most of these projected slot receivers lost some height. Like, for instance, Wanda Robinson went from 5 ten to 5 8, I think Skye Moore lost an inch. So you look at these guys that are listed 5, ten, 5, 11, 6 foot, and you think, all right, well, realistically, they're 5 8 5 9. They're going to be slot receivers. Boat meld was listed 5 11, so we go into this process thinking he's probably about 5 9. He's still 5 11. The official measurement is 5 11. He's not big, but that's not exactly tiny either. Against slot corner, sending them up the field. He's going to have a size advantage. So between what he did last night and then your evaluation of the tape, we had that really interesting conversation yesterday about to maybe change the slot rule to a more vertical slot yearwood Mac Jones had at Alabama. Boat Melton to me is a really intriguing candidate for role like that..

"Types of comparisons because I feel like we shouldn't just compare every slot receiver to Julian Edelman or Wes Welker, but I really watch sky more run routes and the way that he threatens guys in the first couple of steps off the line of scrimmage, not just the fact that he's got good speed and good burst down the field. But the way that he really gets after it in the release and in the leverage on the stem, that reminds me so much of Edelman because Edelman was so hard to cover because he could open up early in the route, right? You just couldn't stick with him early on in the route and then you were playing catch up from behind the whole time. I think Skye Moore has a similar way about him and I also think he kind of has that Edelman knack in the open field where you can kind of bob and weave and set up blocks and be able to create after the catch as well. Maybe not the best game breaker with the football in his hands or vertical route runner, but he definitely did that a little bit in college. So I'm wondering how fast is he? I've heard some rumors from just people around the league that sky more is going to run a four three really put up a huge time. And if he does that, he might be a top 50 pick, right? He might be somebody that goes at the end of the top 50 if he's able to put up something that good. So Skye Moore is somebody I'm really interested in watching as well. Christian Watson in that category too. Christian Watson's gonna run. He might run in the four twos. That's what I'm saying. Like, let's say he comes out and runs like a four two 5 four two 6. He's I think he's 80 right now on the consensus board, think he can sneak. He could see he's 6 5. If he's 6 5 and runs four two something, does he sneak into the top 50? I think it's possible he's one of the most fun watches I've studied in this entire class at wide receiver because not only can he get up the field and create vertical separation, but then he'll put him in the backfield and they'll hand him the ball on jet sweeps.
