Reminder that there's a lot that goes on in this world. We don't pay attention to. Are you guys aware Chad Kelly is lighting up the Canadian football. Yes, I am. I've watched

0:09.0

Argonauts football. I have watched them. I just wait. What did you just say? I have watched him. Yeah on a Friday night ESPN too. Oh, David. Okay, football man. I'll you poor thing. Good God. Carry on. He's waiting for. He's counting down to the Hall of Fame. Yeah.

0:26.0

In fact, I am. All right. So let's get into this here real quick. I got some other things, but I'm going to start with this USA today had a list of second year players. They need to step it up. But the question I have is the three. The first three. They mentioned it's the quarterback position. The, you know, I all know how important to see a somehow.

0:43.0

Kenny Pickett, Desmond Ritter. What do we expect from these two going to year two for their teams? I have no idea on two of the three. But I actually think Kenny Pickett might end up okay. I think Kenny Pickett. It's the biggest pressure spot to me being a Pittsburgh stealer and following big, big Ben. I just don't you feel like with the auntie Johnson and Pickens and Naji. He kind of takes a good step. It's a good system to be because, you know, Pittsburgh's, you know,

1:13.0

they're not flashy. They're not going to ask him to do a ton of things. So I think that may work. It's Desmond Ritter is the one for me because Atlanta's giving him a lot of toys to play with and saying, okay, son.

1:26.0

You know what? Hey, now you got vision. You got every you got receivers. You got tight ends. You got it all. Let's go out there and let's make this thing happen. So Ritter is the one that I think could take that step in year two.

1:39.0

And then on the defensive side for the two year players, one guy that really stands out for me because Mike, you say they're going to take the next step.

1:45.5

They're going to win their division, maybe win a playoff game. And if he's for the jacks of O'Jacks, it's Trayvon Walker. Yeah, wouldn't it need for him on the defensive side for them to take the next step?

1:56.0

To play like the number one overall pick. It's it's a death to play like Aiden Hutchinson to play like cave on Tibido. I mean, really cave on and Aiden both outperformed him.

2:05.0

I understand it's a different system. And he's a different player. But the one thing that scared me with Trayvon was a complete lack of production, which I know Kenny could speak to.

2:15.0

When you play for Georgia for two years and you have a grand total of like four sacks, I don't care what your job duties are. He wasn't a guy that got him a lot of pressure. He didn't produce a lot of sacks. I don't want to hear that Roshan Gary line of thinking of well, you know, he was asked to set the edge stop.

2:33.0

Okay, edge setters might go 12 overall. I don't go number one. So yes, I would agree with you. That's a that's a guy you better have a big year because that team is expected to have a big year because you know, Jackson Phil Vance are looking at Detroit, New York saying we could have had one of those guys is dead.

2:50.0

So Rico, you've been known to say on the show. You just said it that you're not a fan of hard knocks per se. Well, neither are the jets. They are limiting access to HBO when it comes to the show says the jets. Of course, they were forced to be on the show. They fought.
