| 0:00.0 | I honestly think he's he'll get his 40. Looking at Sam Darnold's numbers from last year, |
| 0:08.0 | it was a three-year, $100.5 million contract, $55 guaranteed with 37.5 fully guaranteed of this |
| 0:17.1 | year. I think Donovan's right. He'll probably get 38 guaranteed this year, but I think he's |
| 0:23.3 | three years over $100 million for sure. I do too. And this is where when you get in the market |
| 0:27.9 | value stuff, there's just not a lot of quarterbacks coming out. There's really not. And when you go |
| 0:33.0 | to get a quarterback like that, the only one you're getting, I mean, you're only getting the Mendoza. |
| 0:36.8 | Like besides that, there's no, if a team needs a quarterback, you're getting somebody that's already been in the league and you've seen what Mali can do. He's gone through two coaches, you know, like we've gone over. He understands different things. You know, ran the spread option in Liberty, came here, ran a little boot action under center, |
| 0:54.8 | more, got footwork, all that stuff. |
| 0:56.8 | And he's ready. |
| 0:57.7 | The way he carries himself, he'll be a completely perfectly, you know, great quarterback |
| 1:02.6 | for another team. |
| 1:03.8 | I'm hearing some people say that Alabama quarterback, Ty Simpson, might be a first-round pick. |
| 1:09.6 | That's wild to think about. |
| 2:01.1 | I didn't think he had a great year, but I don't know how you feel about Ty Simpson, but that's wild. I thought they were talking about him being like a fourth or fifth rounder earlier, like earlier in the season. Right. But again, going back to college, the value starts to boost. I think that the rumor was he got offered six million. I don't know if that's true or not, $6 million to stay in college, and he chose to go to the pros. I was like, whoa, bub. I don't know who you got your advice from, but I'm going to take that money. But also, like we always say every year on draft quarterback, it's a completely separate draft for the quarterback. They're in their own numbers. It's exactly what we mean when we say there's two drafts every April. There's the NFL draft and there's the NFL quarterback draft. Quarterbacks are treated at a minimum one tier higher than their current tier of talent. There's no doubt about that. Isn't it interesting, too, how the playoff picture could determine how some teams are needy? |
| 2:08.4 | You know, you'd argue now that the Pittsburgh, I mean, we probably knew it was going to happen there with Arod anyways, but like, what if Stafford wins a Super Bowl and just says I'm hanging it up? |
| 2:09.1 | Right. |
| 2:10.8 | That's another team, you know what I mean? Or insert quarterback here that maybe is just tired of it. |
| 2:14.6 | We don't know it yet. |
| 2:15.4 | And then all of a sudden there's an offseason retirement. And that just, again, like to Amelia's point, you know, I haven't been too |
| 2:21.8 | invested into college football yet. I kind of save that for the offseason and then I just really |
| 2:26.0 | get nerdy about it. But it does seem like it's kind of weak, man. And it's, it's an interesting |
| 2:32.0 | year. Yeah, definitely. So in terms of calculated market value, Spottrack has a leak at 10.6 million annually. |
