0:00.0	Welcome to the Peter King Podcast, a special edition of the Peter King Podcast, our draft
0:09.6	edition. So if you listen to this podcast Friday or Saturday this week you're going to
0:16.6	know the answers to the test and I'm sorry about that but I want you to be
0:21.7	listening this week on Wednesday and you know the first half of
0:26.4	Thursday because I'm going to get you ready for the draft with two really really smart guys. Peter Shrager of Good Morning Football and Fox Sports and Jeff
0:38.1	Legwald, a writer for E-SPN.com covers the Denver Broncos but I'm having him on the show because he does
0:46.4	the most impressive list in our sports writing business in my opinion of the top 100 players. He ranks them. You know in 2018 he had 85 of the
0:58.4	top 100 and the reason that that's a good good score is because once you get down into the
1:05.6	60s and 70s and 80s so many players are rated you know 61st on some board and 160 first on others. So I'm going to have Jeff

1:57.2	at NBC Sports.com my football morning in America column I predicted that Frank Clark would be traded by Seattle to
2:05.2	Kansas City and I'm still actually taking bows here at my studio in New York as I
2:11.5	tape this but I think a lot of people knew that there was some smoke there.
2:18.5	But one of the reasons and one of the things I want to talk about is what exactly this trade says to me.
2:26.4	And it says to me that Andy Reed, the close but no cigar, always a bridesmaid never a bride guy the coach of the chiefs
2:35.8	former coach of the Philadelphia Eagles who has never won the big one this is going to give him the best opportunity in 2019 to win the big one.
2:50.2	He needed an edge-rusher in the worst way after letting D Ford go to the San Francisco 49ers
