Please to welcome back to the Shamrock return business, Dan Bruebler, our NFL draft expert,

author of The Beast, which if you haven't read it, or maybe you're still reading it after starting a couple weeks ago, 401 scouting reports, 8,10093 rankings. Have I got that right?

Something like that. Okay. He loses counts together. Yeah, exactly.

If you get to weak side defensive end number 28 and 29.

It sort of runs together.

I don't know.

And you start talking about Davenport past rushers.

It's, you know, you kind of like, what am I doing?

But you know what?

Hey, scouts are going there to get 40-yard dash time.

So it's worth our attention.

So, yeah, testing data for almost 1900 players, that's, I promise you're not going to find

that in any other draft guides.

No, no, and I'm always impressed, like, when I read the sort of biography stuff about

Notre Dame guys.

One, I get very upset when there's something in there I didn't know because it's like,

that's my job to know it. But this, I mean, I love like the fact that you had a reference to like Isaiah Foskey grew up in kind of like a disciplined home. His dad was in the military. You know, the mayor stuff with his brother being a high school basketball player and wanted to play in Kentucky, I've written about yeah, but that stuff is, is great because I do not know how you find that on, uh, 500 people. No, it's, it's a lot of talking with NFL scouts and, you know, you find out that, and it's funny. I, I joke around with people about my NFL draft guide, uhbook, the things I wasn't allowed to include

in the actual guide, you know, some personal stuff and, you know, things that either the player

didn't want me to include or our editors said, eh, probably not. And so there's a lot of stuff

on these guys that you get. And it's all about painting a picture, you know, understanding.

I think to understand where they're headed, you need to know where they came from.

And no two journeys are the same.
