| 0:38.0 | Welcome back. This is the Big Blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier. |
| 0:43.8 | Join as always my co-ist Nick Bellato. And today, we've got a special guest on the show. |
| 0:48.2 | And that's John Schmelk. I honestly feel like we, not to tune our own horns, are some of the busiest |
| 0:53.4 | giant people during draft season. I mean, we are doing a podcast on the Giants a day. And then I look over at John and I'm like, well, I can't compete with that. We simply can't compete with that. I mean, this man is doing everything when it comes to the draft. We're talking about the Giants Huddle podcast, the Big Blue Kickoff Live, also podcast for him, and then draft season |
| 1:11.3 | podcast. It's just unbelievable stuff. I've been listening to them all. John gets on some unbelievable guests and they do what we love here at Big Blue Panther. They do the in-depth stuff, the deep X's and O's type draft content. I know that's what you guys come for. So we're excited to get John on today. John, how are you doing? I'm good guys. Yeah. I mean, |
| 1:28.5 | this is, this is fun season for me. I wish the regular season has been more fun the last, you know, eight years. But we can settle for fun draft seasons, right? Correct. It's something that we hope for men. I would just love for the New York Giants to be good. And in order for us to get there. We need to nail these drafts. We need to start this Joe Shane, Brian Dable, time off well. So John, we're going to start with one question that every fan is asking and then kind of springboard it into the deep dive stuff after. You're around the team. You have an excellent feel for the franchise. What direction do you think they're leaning in with the fifth and seventh pick? |
| 2:03.0 | If they don't pick an offensive tackle with one of those two picks, I'd fall off my chair. |
| 2:07.8 | I mean, is it impossible given the quality of the class? |
| 2:11.8 | And if a quantity will kneel are off the board, no, it's not impossible. |
| 2:16.0 | But look, I'd be surprised. |
| 2:17.1 | I mean, there's just such a gaping hole at right tackle right now, and they do really |
| 2:22.8 | want to find out about Daniel Jones. |
| 2:25.2 | You want to try to figure out who that guy is, and I think the class is actually set up |
| 2:30.5 | nicely where one of those two guys is not one of those two. |
| 2:33.5 | I happen to have Charles Cross right with that group. I don't know how the Giants front office feels about them. So I'd be very surprised of one of those first two picks. And I think five specifically. I'm not so much on the Carolinas picking a quarterback bandway as everyone else's. I think it's possible. But if they don't, I'm damn near sure they're picking an offensive tackle. |
