And don't forget, you can read my work on ESPN.com. So in a minute, I'm going to talk about why the trading back. |
| 0:36.6 | That's always an option here and why I think there's some reasons why it would make sense and a lot of reasons why it would not and kind of going back over some of the history of this team and having a lot of picks. Having a lot of picks does not equate to having a great draft. I'm going to use examples from here. There's plenty of them, but also examples from a place like Philadelphia. So there's a couple keys to all that, and I'll get into all that. So I want to talk about that in a minute. Now, just before I get there, so for you, gold members are going to try and find a time this week, probably Wednesday. I'm going to do a private Zoom for you guys, because I do believe Thursday is out and Friday's definitely out. |
| 1:16.6 | And then we're doing our mock draft for ESPN that will air on TV a week from Tuesday. |
| 1:23.3 | I do believe I've settled on a guy that I think will be, is obviously a strong possibility. |
| 1:27.0 | There's about five or six guys that I think are strong possibilities. But I do think there's some trying to go down this certain path that I think we'll get there. So we'll see, but I'm not saying who that is until next Tuesday. So you're just going to have to wait just like, I'm sure you guys are going to wait with bated breath because in the end, what difference does it make? But we'll see. |
| 1:44.9 | So we'll get to all that down the road. |
| 1:46.8 | And I am going to have on, again, Matt Miller, |
| 1:48.9 | be talking to him, Logan Paulson talking to him, just about various things. |
| 1:52.0 | And I will regale you with some draft day stories or at least some draft day memories, |
| 1:56.5 | whether it's a pick or some fun, in hindsight, Steve, in hindsight, Steve Spurrier stories, fun for me, |
| 2:02.8 | kind of amazing at the time, maybe fun for you now at the time, if you knew, it's like, |
| 2:08.3 | what the hell is going on? But it really was kind of indicative of what was going on with this |
| 2:13.5 | place that I think people didn't want to, weren't quite ready to believe just what it was |
| 2:19.0 | like. |
| 2:19.7 | Anyways, all that's down the road. |
