Welcome to the Ringer NFL Drafts.

0:05.0

My name is Danny Hyphen. I'm joined by Danny, Kelly, and Craig Horlebeck, and the NFL Combine is over. We are going to break down the winners and losers and failures of objective reality to measure how fast these guys were in. And everything else, we were in Indianapolis for a week, so now we're back. All the drills are done, all the little like playing catch at each other, DKs you always

0:39.3

say. They're playing catch. They're running really fast in their shorts. That's one of my all-time favorite videos. They're going out there and they're playing catch. I dug that up for my phone the other day and I was re-watching it lovingly. It was great. I was just really complaining that when we talk about pro days mattering they're quite

0:56.0

literally just going out there and toss it. Lovingly. It was great. So basically I was just really complaining that when we talk about pro days mattering, they're

0:55.8

quite literally just going out there and tossing around the old pig skin.

0:59.7

They're just playing some catch.

1:01.3

No pads, no helmets, no defenders.

1:04.0

Yeah.

1:05.0

You can just watch the tape of them playing in real games against SEC opponents or you

1:08.8

could watch them play catch. Let's make judgments of who's

1:11.9

going to be good by playing catch, you know? That's all I'm saying. It's incredible. So we're

1:17.1

going to go through the combat winners losers. There were a lot of guys who ran fast and jumped

1:20.2

very high. So we're going to go through all that. But first, there are, there is news. The Detroit

1:24.4

Lions traded running back David Montgomery to the Houston Texans after a scuffle butt. I don't know the word. Scuttle butt? Disagreements over what the trade was. I don't know why it was wrong. We have theories, but we'll keep them to ourselves. But the Texans traded a fourth rounder, a seventh rounder, and their center, juice Scr scrugs to the lions. What a name.

1:45.0

I know. Dude.

1:46.1

Juice.

1:46.6

It's a second round pick, Juice Scruggs. It's up there. He's on the guys who weren't good enough for their name. Like, juice really didn't have that. Does he have the best O-Lyman name? He might. It's high. Juice is very high, But good.

1:59.0

Not enough juice that he was actually able to stick at center for the Texans.

2:04.0

So yeah, David Montgomery said Houston, the Lions got rid of him. I don't know, D.K., what is your first thought for all this? Is it Houston? Is it Lions? Is it fantasy? Jamir Gibbs? I mean, yeah, it's rocket ship, Jemir Gibbs, for starters. I think obviously we already knew he was going to be a really good player. But when you look at some of the splits where David Montgomery is not playing, it's pretty incredible. I think he averages. I think Jemir Gibbs averages like 25 points a game. So the ceiling is absolutely astronomical with Gibbs going forward now. I don't know who the RB2 on the Lions is even going to be at this point I pulled up some of the guys

2:34.8

tell me if you've heard of these guys Jacob Say sailors would be I guess the RB2 according to

2:41.1

our lads uh see on evaki and Kyle Robichot Show thoughts on all those three as the RB2 for the

2:48.2

Lions see on Ivaki also like plays defense. Right.
