00:00So let me ask you, they've obviously in that front office,
00:06Shane and Dable, they have already decided it would appear to me
00:10from what you're telling me that they're satisfied
00:12with the quarterback room as it stands now.
00:16And they're not worried about drafting Shador Sanders
00:19because it's not happening.
00:20And then I want to ask you, does this same group of people
00:25believe in Thibodeau?
00:28Like, what do they, you know, what do they think of him?
00:32Is he going to get a new deal, some big fat deal?
00:35Do you think he's been a great player?
00:38Like, what is their thinking there?
00:40Yeah, he's been a good player.
00:41He's not been a great player.
00:42I don't want to say he was overdrafted,
00:44but there was a lot of hype around Thibodeau.
00:46I do.
00:48He's been a nice player.
00:50He's not been great.
00:52Now, I will tell you.
00:53Nice don't cut it in New York or in the NFL.
00:56Nice don't cut it.
00:58By the way, if Travis Hunter goes at three,
01:01if he does not go to the Browns at two,
01:02which would be a surprise,
01:04he's not getting past the Giants at number three.
01:06I don't care that they've got good enough corners.
01:09Travis Hunter is a game changer, okay?
01:11Travis Hunter is a special football player.
01:14And you and I will be talking about this closer to the draft.
01:16This draft determines blue chip prospects.
01:20This draft of the last 10 years probably has on paper
01:23for the fewest amount of blue chip prospects to go in the first round.
01:27It's just not a great first round.
01:28But Travis Hunter in any draft is special.
01:31There's no question about that.
01:33So let me ask you this question.
01:35So you know, being in Philly,
01:37how great Howie is,
01:39Roseman,
01:40at running the Eagles to another ring
01:43and another Lombardi.
01:44These guys,
01:46Shane and Dable,
01:47have butchered their tenure in New York.
01:51There's no getting around that.
01:53And you're telling me
01:54that they're going to,
01:56they're not drafting a quarterback
01:58and they're going to go with what they have.
02:01What that says to me is
02:03that both of those guys are doomed.
02:06Understand this, Scott, though.
02:07You can't win without quarterbacks.
02:09They're quarterbacks all signed.
02:10I hear you.
02:11But let me address the situation.
02:14The worst thing you can do,
02:16and I hate to bring this guy up,
02:18and I was there at that draft in 17,
02:19but when the Bears reached for Mitch Trubisky
02:21because they needed a quarterback,
02:23that set them back.
02:24Yeah, they made the playoffs with him,
02:26but they never got there.
02:27Mitch Trubisky,
02:28no one would have criticized it
02:29if he went in the second round.
02:31Trudor Sanders does not have the value
02:33to go at number three.
02:35I know they need a quarterback.
02:36They've got,
02:37it's about this season with Russell Wilson,
02:39okay?
02:40No question he's going to be the starter.
02:42Winston will back him up.
02:43But the future they can get next year.
02:45Now, I know some people are saying,
02:47well, they're going to avoid a quarterback here
02:49because if they took a quarterback,
02:50they noticed that guy wouldn't play.
02:52I know that's some thinking there,
02:53but the bottom line is Trudor Sanders
02:54is not good enough to go at number three.
02:56He's a mid-to-late first-round pick
02:58in true value,
02:59but it doesn't mean he can't be a good quarterback.
03:01That's not the point.
03:02The point is when you grade the player,
03:06he's got a lower grade,
03:07and that's why he's going lower.
03:08So, you know,
03:10God forbid he ends up with the Steelers at 21.
03:13Is that what's going to happen with this guy?
03:17You know, it's so funny
03:18because, you know,
03:18they've been on Jackson Dart a little bit.
03:20Jackson Dart to me is not a,
03:22is a late first, early second-round pick.
03:25Trudor Sanders to me is a better prospect.
03:27In fact, it's not,
03:28it's a fact.
03:30I mean, Trudor Sanders is a better quarterback
03:32at this point,
03:34based on tape,
03:35than Jackson Dart.
03:37But that would be,
03:38listen,
03:38if you're,
03:39if you're the,
03:39if you're the Steelers,
03:40I know cornerback for the future
03:43is a need for them.
03:44They got to start looking at edge rusher
03:45because of T.J. Watts' age.
03:48They got to look at running back.
03:49They're going to need a receiver
03:50down the line,
03:51depending on what they do
03:52with George Pickens.
03:53But they also need to get
03:55the quarterback situation solved.
03:56Do they like Milrow
03:57better than Sanders
03:59is the question.
04:00I doubt that.
04:01I doubt that.
04:02Milrow's,
04:03Milrow,
04:03that's a second round pick player,
04:05by the way.
04:06I know Milrow's an interesting player.
04:08I know there's some steam there
04:09with the Steelers of Milrow.
04:11Milrow is not a first round
04:12great quarterback.
04:13He's just not.
04:14How good is Kyle McCord?
04:16Because I thought he was
04:17a really good quarterback
04:19at Syracuse.
04:20I thought he was unbelievable,
04:21but he gets no juice whatsoever.
04:25He's a third to fourth round pick,
04:26Scott.
04:27That's,
04:27that's what he is.
04:28This draft,
04:29Scott is like that.
04:30That's what he is.
04:32He's a mid-round quarterback.
04:34This quarterback draft,
04:35Scott,
04:35and that's why you can't reach.
04:37You can't push the panic button
04:38just because you need a quarterback.
04:40That's the point.
