| 0:00.0 | What's up? Welcome in a mini pod edition of Hogue and John's going into the weekend. |
| 0:18.6 | Heard from Ryan Poles, heard from a bunch of players at Househall after yesterday's |
| 0:24.2 | full episode. So I wanted to get you something quick going into the weekend and hear from a |
| 0:28.8 | couple of these players as well. Which player left you with the most optimism? You were there, |
| 0:37.2 | you're sitting right in the middle of that media room. |
| 0:39.9 | How did you feel about the whole day? |
| 0:44.0 | Which player left me with the most optimism? |
| 0:51.9 | I guess I'll just go with the guy that made the most money. |
| 0:56.6 | Well, that's what we're about to talk about. |
| 0:58.9 | Yeah. |

| 1:41.3 | of the picture and they're like hey we have two new linebackers that are half of what he costs. |
| 1:45.0 | So they just keep going down, down, down the cost of a non-premium position is that is, you know, an off-the-ball linebacker is now considered that. |
| 1:55.2 | But I actually think Devin Bush, look, I don't think he's necessarily going to give you 125 tackles, but I do think this is a great fit for him. |
| 2:02.7 | And he could. And he could get his hands on the football and he had a really long touchdown return |
