| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:02.5 | Guaranteed Human. |
| 0:14.8 | What is up? |
| 0:16.2 | Welcome to a special edition of the NFL Fantasy Live podcast. |
| 0:20.2 | It's been your man, M.G. Marcus Grant, alongside Graham Barfield. Welcome to Indianapolis. Yeah. It's been fun. It's been interesting. Right? Indy is definitely an interesting, very cool niche city. Right. And I've seen most of it from like interior walkways, which is great. Yeah. You know, we got here. It was snowing when I walked out of the airport. I was concerned, and then I realized that I don't actually have to go outdoors if I don't need to. Yeah, I landed and immediately walked out, and it started snowing. So I just figured I brought the snow, I mean. Right. So far so good. We are here, obviously, at Lucas Oil Stadium for the NFL scouting combine. |
| 0:56.0 | Day one was on Friday as we finish, as we record this, they are just finishing up down there on the field. |
| 1:02.8 | And it was offensive linemen and running backs. |
| 1:05.6 | For our purposes, we were more interested in the running backs, obviously. |
| 1:08.5 | So we'll talk a little bit about that. |
| 1:10.2 | We'll kind of do a brief look ahead to what is coming on Saturday when a whole slew of |
| 1:14.9 | fantasy relevant positions are working out. |
| 1:17.2 | But in the meantime, let's do the news. |
| 1:32.0 | Well, the most fantasy relevant news coming out of the combine on Friday was about |
| 1:37.2 | Kyler Murray. |
| 1:38.0 | And I said a couple weeks ago that if you haven't heard his name too much already, |
| 1:41.6 | you will have heard it too much by the time we get to draft day. So let's talk some more about Kyler Murray, shall we? He does not plan to work out here at the Combine. He is here. In fact, as we record this podcast, I'm looking at the monitors here in our booth, and I see him at the podium taking questions. So, Graham, he's just kind of here for interviews. He's not running. He's not throwing, he's not doing any workouts. He's just, you know, chatting up and maybe having some shrimp cocktail at St. Elmo's. I kind of get it. I mean, I kind of get it. I mean, you just come and hang out and meet with these teams now. I mean, what does he have to prove? What do these quarterbacks have to prove right now coming on? I mean, it's Haskins, it's Murray. It's a one-two race. What are they going to prove that they haven't already? I think the biggest thing he proved actually was on Thursday, and it had nothing to do with his athleticism. It was when he measured in. I mean, you know, he ends up measuring a little bit above 5'10, which is a little bit taller than I think people anticipated. And his |
| 2:35.1 | hand size was bigger than nine inches, which is, again, was bigger than I think people expected. So |
| 2:40.8 | a lot of the questions about whether or not he has the size to make it in the NFL, I think for |
| 2:46.0 | the moment at least, those are quieted just because his numbers came out better. Yeah, I think |
| 2:50.6 | that's what everybody was waiting on, too, is the hand size. And I know there's quite a few studies that have shown hand size matters. There's been some that's shown that it doesn't. But as long as it's not like my hands, really small little hands, as long as it's not me, we're good. I did see a really interesting fact from Joe Goodberry, who covers the Bengals. Um, Kyler Murray's wingspan was 28 inches. Okay. From side to side. |
| 3:10.8 | Right. |
| 3:11.0 | It's the shortest. a really interesting fact from Joe Goodberry, who covers the Bengals. Kyle Murray's wingspan was 28 inches from side to side. |
