| 0:00.0 | I'm I'm Welcome back to nothing personal. It's David Sampson on a Tuesday, and I couldn't be happier. |
| 0:41.8 | It's draft week. |
| 0:42.8 | I think we all know that. |
| 0:44.1 | And I couldn't be happy to have Jeff Schwartz with me. |
| 0:46.7 | He, eight-year NFL veteran. |
| 0:48.4 | You may know him from the teams he played on. |
| 0:50.3 | You may know him because of his proclivity for amazing Jewish food, or you may know him |
| 0:57.1 | as a sports media personality for Fox Sports, but we're going to know him as a draft expert. Jeff, |
| 1:03.2 | how are you? Glad to be here. Thanks for having me. I appreciate it. It's a fun week. You know, |
| 1:07.7 | all these weeks and weeks and months of sort of draft discussion and all happens on Thursday. |
| 1:14.1 | You know, I'm a baseball guy. |
| 1:16.1 | And so for me, I love the draft, but it never, as a team president, it never felt like, all right, this guy can help me because it may be three years. |

| 2:21.4 | You can go from four wins and nine wins and make a wildcard spot. |
| 2:23.3 | So the draft to me is hope, right? |
| 2:27.9 | A lot of fan bases entering Thursday night and Friday and Saturday thinking about what they can be if they hit the draft correctly. |
| 2:29.8 | Well, you just dropped in there a line about the Giants having two first round picks, |
| 2:34.0 | and that is a pretty new occurrence after the trade that just took place for Dexter Lawrence. |
| 2:39.2 | You know, he said something interesting after the trade. |
