00:03 Are you surprised that the kid Williams will not do any medicals and
00:07 that his father, who is a pain in the tuchus,
00:10 has said that he will not accept a rookie deal in the NFL?
00:15 He will not do a four year with a fifth year option deal.
00:18 He wants his own way of doing deals in the NFL.
00:21 Sounds like another crazy papa.
00:25 >> There's a lot of them in sports, but once it begins,
00:30 fathers don't really have any impact in the National Football League.
00:34 And I kind of block a lot of the outside noise out, Scout.
00:37 We also heard forever people were saying how we didn't want to play in Chicago.
00:41 And so, do we ever hear him say he didn't want to play in Chicago?
00:46 We do have a little bit of craziness going on behind the scenes.
00:50 But in the big picture, I mean,
00:53 people have hyped this kid up to be the best quarterback prospect to come into
00:56 the league since, I guess we would say, Trevor Lawrence.
00:59 But he is graded in the same sort of scale, Scott, of Trevor Lawrence.
01:06 And we see Trevor Lawrence isn't a dominant NFL quarterback, right?
01:10 I mean, if you look back to what he was projected to be and what he is,
01:12 he's good.
01:14 He's above average, but
01:15 he's not a dominant quarterback in the National Football League.
01:19 Andrew Luck pretty much was.
01:21 Andrew Luck was elite.
01:22 But Williams does have the highest grade, Scott,
01:26 as far as quarterbacks coming into the National Football League since Trevor
01:30 Lawrence, Andrew Luckish.
01:32 And I find it to be the media and social media, etc.,
01:38 that whatever he does, there's going to be, as you stated, his diva father and
01:42 this, he doesn't want to take a physical.
01:45 The number one picks never do take a physical.
01:47 Marvin Harrison didn't even show up, Scott.
01:50 He didn't even show up to do an interview, a press conference.
01:53 >> He doesn't need to.
01:54 >> To me. >> He doesn't need to.
01:55 >> Well, why so?
01:57 Why does Caleb Williams need to?
01:58 If Marvin Harrison is the fourth pick in the draft,
02:03 why does Caleb have to do anything as the first pick in the draft?
02:06 >> None of them think they need to do anything.
02:08 Here's my question to you.
02:09 Is this kid, is the highest graded?
02:12 Like every quarterback, literally,
02:13 can we go back the litany of failed USC quarterbacks in the NFL?
02:18 It's just a litany of them.
02:19 >> I'm gonna say one thing too.
02:20 >> At the end of the day, Carson Palmer was the best one.
02:22 >> Like the Jets wanna meet with Caleb Williams.
02:29 Like why?
02:30 Like he said no.
02:32 No, but he said no.
02:33 And I saw there was a little, well, he doesn't wanna meet with teams.
02:36 I wouldn't meet with the Jets, why?
02:38 Like, you know what I mean?
02:40 Number one, you're picking Ted.
02:41 Number two, you have Aaron Rodgers.
02:43 I'm not wasting my time.
02:45 That's his whole thing, bro.
02:46 I'm not gonna waste my time talking to everybody.
02:48 So you can leak stuff to the media.
02:50 Oh, I didn't like his answer to one of my questions.
02:53 I don't like his attitude.
02:55 I'm not gonna be playing for you.
02:57 I know this, you know this.
02:58 I'm not gonna waste my time with you.
