And now, Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

0:11.2

What's up, everyone? I am Bucky Brooks, and this is Move the Sticks, and I'm joined by my guy, Lance

0:16.0

Xerlion, the man who does everything for the website as it related to providing all the profiles,

0:22.9

breaking it all down. How many profiles did we knock out this year, Lance? We only got to like

0:27.7

445. My editor said he did, he said, don't write guys that can't get drafted. I don't want to

0:33.4

have to edit them. I said, I don't want to have to write them. So bet.

0:46.4

I mean, we're on the same page. I mean, you got to love that. I appreciate all the work because that is, man, laborious when it comes to like 400 and something profiles. That's crazy.

0:53.1

I'm going to tell you the sneaky tough part is I'm watching tape in late October for some of these prospects

1:01.2

and then early November.

1:03.6

And there's two things that are really tough.

1:05.6

I'm going to start with the easiest one where you think you have a player based on tape,

1:31.4

I'm not, let's say he can't make a team, but it's real hard for teams to, you know, get on board

1:36.5

with drafting a shorter slot receiver with a 4-840 is all he has to his name.

1:43.0

So going back and, you know, re-looking at and retouching up some of the, some of the

1:52.3

scatterer report, some of the strengths of weaknesses I wrote up after Pro Days, one thing.

1:56.9

But I'll tell you what else is tough.

1:58.0

I wrote Josh Simmons, and he was out for the year.

2:01.5

So I wrote him in late, late November, early December. And I run him up, man, this guy is athletic.

2:09.3
