York Times best selling offer for sports college football sideline reporter and reporter in general so you did a story on the athletic

where you went and you did your mock top 10 and what you did is you went and talked to rival coaches of all the players because they're the most honest yeah

you know college coaches are always trying to sell their guys I totally get it for their program the rival will tell you the truth

so let let's start let's show people um um Bruce has his mock draft so I was told by scouts I trust that Aiden Hutchison was the safest pick it's a position that has rare talent there's not

you know about one great past rusher maybe to a draft he plays really hard he was well coached what are the coaches that faced Michigan's Aiden Hutchison

college what are they saying about it they say he's even more impressive uh when you see him in the games as opposed to what they watch on film they said he is a

play strong plays violent he's a really good athlete he has a lot of flexibility in terms of what you can do scheme wise um they love and this is something that's

a lot of the Michigan program about how committed to football he is just to being the best he can there's a drive there but really good change the direction he pretty much checks off every box and so when people say

safest pick I think they know they're going to get a guy who's probably going to go to a bunch of pro balls he met now he who is going to be JJ what he's not 290 pounds but who else is JJ what but he can be a big time player and as the lead

back driven edge rusher has become massively important so he's a position of neat now conversely uh cave on thibado from Oregon is an edge rusher so I talked to a jam about a week ago who likes him and thinks he is a top 10 pick closer to 10 but there are

concerns about him what did the rival coaches say about the Oregon past rusher the the biggest concerns are the heat plays and spurts and he disappears in some games

people really like his physical tools in terms of yes great get off now he's not that big he's 254 pounds you can see that if we show video he's not huge no we're not talking about miles

Garrett size we're not talking about chase young that's right that's right in clounty the boasts he's not that he's a smaller he does have really good get off but there are concerns about he disappears in games there's also some some concerns about how committed to football I've hurt

guy heard the same thing from somebody I trust um he's got a little you got a little star power he does now remember as you know he was the top he was the number one recruit in the country and he has been anointed for a long time

and I don't think anybody thinks he's a bad kid at all it's just in terms of I think there's some things that maybe give people concern about the commitment and the dedication is football the most important thing to him there are sometimes were some comments he's made

probably wrinkle people in combination with him disappearing in games and like hey how come he didn't dominate against the opponent they weren't very good so that I don't want to say he's the boomer bust guy it may be a really good thing I

haven't going to eat to the Falcons and maybe a good thing it for him long term if he falls out of the top five and then is like in the mood of I'm going to show everybody they were wrong and I'm going to play with a with a passion and practice and and work with a passion in terms of my preparation

to prove everybody wrong I was told it's a very good receiver draft it's not a great receiver draft you have Drake London at USC going number one he's often injury he's a basketball player so you'll see it when he plays he like he boxes out big catching radius doesn't blow past anybody what are the rivals say about him first of all as you said he was a elite basketball
