ANNOUNCE WANT FIRST PICK OF THE
2023NFL DRAFT.
>> WITH THE FIRST PICK IN THE 2023NFL DRAFT, THE CAROLINA
PANTHERS SELECT BRYCE YOUNG
QUARTERBACK, ALABAMA. >> SO NICK SABIN, PART OF THE
BRYCE YOUNG CONTINGENT,
CELEBRATING THE FIRST EVER FIRST OVERALL SELECTION OUT OF THE
UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER CJ'S MIGHT BE BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S
BRYCE YOUNG AND HE'S THE FIRST
PLAYER OUT OF THE GREENROOM AND OUT OF UNION STATION TO HEAD TO
THE STAGE AND TO PUT ON A
CAROLINA PANTHER HAT AND WELCOME TO THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE,
BRYCE YOUNG.
>> THINK ABOUT ALL THE WORK OVER HIS LIFE THAT WENT INTO THIS
MOMENT TO GET HIM RIGHT HERE.
BEEN TOLD HE'S TOO SMALL HIS WHOLE LIFE.
HE WENT TO THE PREMIER HIGH
SCHOOL PROGRAM IN THE COUNTRY AND DOMINATES AND THEN WENT TO
ALABAMA PROGRAM AND DOMINATES
AND ONCE AGAIN THE FIRST PICK IN THE DRAFT.
WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHMENT.
AT NO POINT DID IT SEEM TOO BIG FOR HIM.
HE PLAYED LIKE HE'S GETTING TO
THE STAGE. SLOW HEART BEAT, WITH PATIENCE.
THIS GUY IS IN CONTROL ALL THE
TIME. >> DON'T FORGET, HE WAS NEVER
AFRAID TO UNCLE HIMSELF.
PLAYED BEHIND MATT JONES AND THEN TOOK OVER IMMEDIATELY
THEREAFTER.
>> DANIEL? >> YEAH.
WE CAN JUMP INTO THE VIDEO HERE.
LET'S SEE WHAT THIS MAN LOOKS LIKE ON THE FIELD.
WE'VE HEARD EVERYTHING ABOUT HIS
CHARACTER, EVERYTHING ABOUT HIS WORK ETHIC.
THAT'S OFF THE CHARTS.
THERE'S A LOT TO LOVE ABOUT WHAT YOU SEE AS WELL.
GUYS HAVE TALKED ABOUT HIM BEING
A POINT GUARD. IN A WAY THAT DREW BREES
DISTRIBUTED THE FOOTBALL, THAT'S
WHY THE COMPARISON EXISTS. NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THE SIZE.
LET'S START WITH POCKET
AWARENESS. HIS SIXTH SENSE TO FEEL
PRESSURE, GET AWAY FROM IT AND
DELIVER THE BALL ACCURATELY DOWN THE FIELD.
THE POISE.
YOU GET FREE RUSHERS. HE HANGS IN THERE.
HE'S NOT THE BIGGEST BUT NOT
AFRAID. HE GETS HIS CLEATS IN THE
GROUND.
HE'LL TAKE THE HIT. BALL PLACEMENT, YOU CAN'T COVER
IT BETTER THAN THIS.
HE'S IN PERFECT POSITION. THIS BALL IS ALMOST HAND
DELIVERED TO THE WIDE RECEIVER
AND THEN THE PLAY MAKING. THIS OFFENSIVE LINE WAS NOT
QUITE WHAT IT'S BEEN IN YEARS
PAST FOR ALABAMA. HE HAD OPPORTUNITIES LIKE THIS
AGAINST LSU TO MAKE THINGS
HAPPEN AND HE DID. >> ABSOLUTELY AND YOU ALREADY
MENTIONED DREW BREES.
HOW ABOUT I PAY HOMAGE TO DOUG MOODY?
WHAT WE'RE SEEING FROM BRYCE
YOUNG, LOCATE TARGET, FOOTBALL ON TARGET, DOUG WAS DOING THAT
COMING OUT OF BOSTON COLLEGE.
BUT WE WEREN'T READY TO RECEIVE HIM YET BECAUSE OF HIS SIZE IN
THE NFL.
HE HAD TO GO TO CANADA AND THEN COME BACK.
YOU SEE IN THE SAME PLAY MAKING
ABILITY. KURT WARNER TALKS ABOUT THE
ABILITY TO PLAY FROM THE POCKET
AND PLAY ON SCHEDULE. WE SAW THAT FROM DREW BREES.
THAT'S WHAT YOU'LL GET FROM
BRYCE YOUNG. OVERALL?
>> SECOND PICK IN THE 2023
DRAFT, THE HOUSTON TEXANS SELECT CJ STROUD, QUARTERBACK, OHIO
STATE.
>> SO THEY DO TAKE QUARTERBACK AND THEY DO TAKE CJ STROUD OUT
OF THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY.
THE BUCKEYE CHOSEN SECOND OVERALL AND HE IS THE FIRST
DRAFT CHOICE FOR THE NEW HEAD
COMB THERE. THEY DO NOT GO DEFENDER.
THEY DO NOT TRADE THE PICK AND
WE DO START QUARTERBACK QUARTERBACK HERE TONIGHT IN
KANSAS CITY.
>> NO INFORMATION GOT OUT OF HOUSTON.
THERE WAS A LOT SWIRLING AROUND
BUT THERE WAS A TIGHT LID ON WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO.
THIS, TO ME, WE TALKED ABOUT IT.
IT WAS LOGICAL, MADE THE MOST SENSE.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE THEIR
QUARTERBACK OF THE FUTURE BEFORE THIS MOMENT AND THEY HAVE HIM
NOW.
THEY HAD TO DO THIS. >> I DIDN'T WANT TO BELIEVE ALL
OF THIS SMOKE BECAUSE THAT IS --
YOU GOT TO BELIEVE YOUR EYES TO SOME EXTENT AND WHEN YOU WATCH
THIS GUY PLAY, LIKE I HAVE FOR
THE LAST TWO YEARS, LIKE I SAID EARLIER, EIGHT OF HIS GAMES,
HE'S SURGICAL WITH THE FOOTBALL.
HIS BALL PLACEMENT, THE ANTICIPATORY NATURE THAT HE
THROWS THE BALL WITH, HE'S ONE
OF THE BEST IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL AND THIS IS, I BELIEVE, THE
ACCURATE PICK.
>> HE LOOKS A LITTLE RELIEVED, OBVIOUSLY ELATED AND OVERJOYED.
IT'S HIS DRAFT STOP THAT'S BEEN
QUESTIONED SIGNIFICANTLY. IT STARTED WITH ANOTHER OHIO
STATE QUARTERBACK.
BUT IT'S CJ STROUD WHO NOW COMES OUT, EMERGES AS THE SECOND
OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT AFTER
ALL. >> HE'S A PURE THROWER.
YOU TALK ABOUT POCKETABILITY.
HE HAS THAT. ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAD ABOUT C.J.
STROUD, THEY WERE ANSWERED IN
THE GAME AGAINST GEORGIA IN THE PLAYOFFS.
HOW ABOUT THE POCKET MOVEMENT?
QUESTION WHETHER OR NOT HE CAN RESET, DELIVER THE BALL.
HE SHOWS THAT ABILITY ON TIME
AND IN RHYTHM. THE BALL COMES OUT OF THE SAME
ARM SLOT AND LOOK AT THE BALL
PLACEMENT WHERE HE'S ABLE TO PUT IT ALWAYS ON THE UPFIELD
SHOULDERS.
CARTER ON BLOCK RIGHT FROM YOUR FACE HERE.
HE GETS AWAY FROM HIM, EYES UP,
DELIVERS THE BALL DOWN THE FOOTBALL QUESTION.
HE PUT ALL THE QUESTIONS TO BED
MAKING THINGS HAPPEN OUTSIDE THE STRUCTURE OF THE PLAY AND HE
MIGHT NOT BE GOING FOR 40, 50
YARDS. HE'LL GET TO FIRST DOWNS WITH
HIS ATHLETICISM.
>> MELISSA? >> HE IS FIRED UP AND YOU TOLD
ME YOU'VE BEEN DREAMING ABOUT
THIS DAY SINCE YOU WERE FIVE YEARS OLD.
WHAT IS IT LIKE TO BE THE NUMBER
TWO OVERALL PICK IN THE DRAFT? >> ALWAYS GIVE ME LORD AND
SAVIOR ALL THE CREDIT.
JESUS CHRIST, WITHOUT HIM, I WOULDN'T BE HERE.
HE'S THE REASON I'M HERE
>> YOU'RE GETTING EMOTIONAL. >> YES, MA'AM.
A LOT OF HARD WORK.
>> AND A YOU'RE GOING TO A TEAM LOOKING FOR A NEW IDENTITY.
A NEW HEAD COACH, LOOKING FOR A
LEADER. WHAT DO YOU BRING?
>> I BRING ME.
I'M BRINGING A MAN OF GOD, A LEADER, SOMEBODY WHO IS GOING TO
GO TO WORK EVERY DAY AND WORK
THEIR TAIL OFF. SOMEBODY WHO COMES FROM A
WINNING TRADITION, SOMEBODY WHO
WANTS TO WIN. THAT'S HOW I CARE ABOUT.
I'M GOING TO BE THE BEST
TEAMMATE, THE BEST LEADER, BEST QUARTERBACK I CAN BE.
>> GO CELEBRATE.
>> THANK YOU. >> THERE WAS A LOT OF TALK ABOUT
THIS S2 TEST AND PROCESSING AND
DOES HE MAKE GOOD DECISIONS. HE DOES AND HE MAKES GREAT
DECISIONS WITH THINGS LIKE
TRAJECTORY. SEE THAT HOLE IN THE ROSE BOWL,
IT'S ALSO ANTICIPATING WINDOWS
AND WHEN HE'S THROWING THE FOOTBALL.
HE ANTICIPATES THAT MID TIER
LONGER THROW AS WELL AS ANYBODY THAT I'VE SEEN ON COLLEGE
FOOTBALL THE LAST COUPLE OF
YEARS AND THE ACCURACY DOWN THE FIELD IS EXTRAORDINARY.
THIS IS WHY DEFENSIVE
COORDINATORS WHEN I WOULD TALK TO THEM BEFORE COVERING OHIO
STATE, THE DEFENSIVE
COORDINATOR, THEY WOULD SAY THIS GUY IS SURGICAL.
>> YEAH.
WHAT I THINK ABOUT WHEN I SEE TEXANS' WORLD AT PRESENT.
>> ARIZONA CARDINALS HAVE TRADED
THE THIRD PICK TO THE HOUSTON TEXANS.
WITH THE THIRD PICK IN THE
2023NFL DRAFT, THE HOUSTON TEXANS SELECT WILL ANDERSON,
JUNIOR.
LINEBACKER, ALABAMA. >> SO AGAIN, IT STARTS
QUARTERBACK QUARTERBACK
LINEBACKER. IT STARTS ALABAMA, OHIO STATE,
ALABAMA.
THEN IT STARTS CAROLINA, HOUSTON, HOUSTON.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST
REMARKABLE BEGINNINGS OF AN NFL DRAFT WE CAN REMEMBER AND WHAT
WE WOULD HAVE EXPECTED OUT OF
THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE DRAFT COMING IN.
>> COMING OFF THE YEAR, BUT
GARDNER ON THE PRE-GAME. OFFENSIVE DEFENSIVE ROOKIES OF
THE YEAR.
GIVING YOUR JETS A LOT OF HOPE. THEIR CANDIDATES IN HOUSTON HAVE
OFFENSIVE, DEFENSIVE ROOKIE OF
THE YEAR. >> AGAIN, THE SMOKE WE KEPT
GETTING, THE LAST THREE WEEKS,
THE LAST TWO WEEKS, THIS CAN HAPPEN, THAT COULD HAPPEN.
THE SMOKE HAS CLEARED AND IT'S
GONE BACK TO WHERE WE WERE IN JANUARY, FOLKS.
THE TOP TWO QUARTERBACKS,
HOWEVER YOU LIKE THEM, THEY CAME UP THE BOARD FIRST.
BEST DEFENDER IN COLLEGE
FOOTBALL THE LAST THREE SEASONS COMES OFF THE BOARD FIRST.
SMOKE, FIRE FOR EVERYONE ELSE.
IT GETS TAPPED OUT QUICKLY. WE'RE BACK TO WHERE WE'RE
SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE DRAFT.
>> LET'S JUMP IN TO WILL ANDERSON IN THE VIDEO.
AGAIN, THE ELITE CHARACTER,
ELITE WORK ETHIC, LEADERSHIP, ALL OF THAT STUFF IS GREAT.
WHEN HE GETS ON THE FIELD, THIS
GUY HAS POWER AND PLAYS THE GAME IN A MANNER THAT YOU SEE MACK
PLAY FOOTBALL.
RUN AND PASS HE'S A COMPLETE PLAYER.
HE CAN DOMINATE AT THE POINT OF
ATTACK. HE'S DONE IT THREE STRAIGHT
YEARS.
WHEN YOU WATCH HIM GET AFTER THE QUARTERBACK, HE'S GOT INCREDIBLY
STRONG HANDS.
HE'S ABLE TO GET UNDERNEATH, GUT YUSHD NEATH THE WRIST, POP IT UP
AND GET HOME.
HE HAS A FEELING TO WITH HIS SUDDENNESS.
YOU OVERSIT, YOU GET OVER YOUR
SPEED, HE FIELDS IT. HE'LL COUNTER UNDERNEATH AND GET
HOME WITH A SACK.
THINK ABOUT THE POINT OF ATTACK, STACK AND SHED.
START TO PUNCH THE GAMES WITH
THE CHARGERS LAST YEAR. YOU DON'T WANT TO COUNT FROM THE
BACK SIDE.
HE'LL BE ABLE TO CLOSE THAT DOOR WITH HIS SPEED AND HIS EFFORT.
HOUSTON TEXANS AREN'T MESSING
AROUND. I LOVE IT.
>> YOU CAN SEE MCNAIR WAS ON THE
PHONE. THIRD QUARTERBACK IN THE FIRST
FOUR PICKS OF THE DRAFT.
>> WITH THE FOURTH PICK IN THE 2023NFL DRAFT, THE INDIANAPOLIS
COLTS SELECT ANTHONY RICHARDSON.
QUARTERBACK, FLORIDA. >> ANTHONY RICHARDSON WHO LIT UP
THE COMBINE IN LUCAS OIL
STADIUM, WHO KNEW HE WAS JUST LEAVING THE LIGHT ON FOR
HIMSELF.
HE'LL GO BACK TO INDIANAPOLIS WHERE HE CRUSHED THE COMBINE AND
HE IS THE QUARTERBACK OF THE
MOMENT. YOU CAN SEE THE EMOTION POURING
OUT OF THIS YOUNG MAN FROM THE
UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA. IS HE THE YOUNG QUARTERBACK
CHOSEN BIP THE INDIANAPOLIS
COLTS, THE FAN BASE HAS BEEN WAITING TO SEE A YOUNG
QUARTERBACK COME OUT OF THE
DRAFT ROOM WITH A BLUE HORSESHOE ON HIS HEAD AND HE IS ANTHONY
RICHARDSON.
>> REMEMBER BO JACKSON RAN OUT OF THE STADIUM?
ANTHONY RICHARDSON SHOULD HAVE
RUN IN THE LOCKER ROOM IN INDIANAPOLIS AND PUT HIS CLOTHES
IN THERE KNOWING THAT'S WHERE HE
WAS GOING TO BE. >> ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS POP IN
THE TAPE AGAINST UTAH AND YOU'RE
LIKE, MY EVALUATION IS DONE. LET'S TAKE HIM.
HE PLAYED VERY WELL AGAINST
TENNESSEE. >> HE DID.
>> I KNOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO
POINT TO THE KENTUCKY GAME. IT'S ONLY BEEN 13 STARTS BUT YOU
LIKED THIS WORD A LOT FROM THE
WORD GO. >> HE'S CAM NEWTON.
THIS IS RARE, RARE SIZE SPEED,
COMBINATION. IT'S A LITTLE ROLLERCOASTER RIDE
WHEN YOU WATCH THE TAPE.
WHAT YOU CAN'T QUESTION IS THE PURE ARM TALENT, THE ARM
STRENGTH.
HOW ABOUT THE URGENCY AND THE TWITCH WITHIN THE POCKET TO BE
NAVIGATE AROUND RUSHERS.
HE'S EXTREMELY SUDDEN AND EXPL
EXPLOSIVE.
THIS IS THE PLAY OF THE YEAR FROM THE QUARTERBACK.
JUMP, PUMP, SPIN AND DELIVERS A
TOUCHDOWN AGAINST UTAH. YOU WANT TO RUN SOME POWER IN
BETWEEN THE TACKLES?
HE'S 244 POUNDS. NOT A PROBLEM.
YOU THINK ABOUT TOUCHDOWNS.
IT'S NOT OFTEN YOU SEE QB'S GO 80 AGAINST LSU.
THIS IS GOING TO BE A FUN
OFFENSE TO WATCH IN INDY. PLAYER.
>> WITH THE FIFTH PICK IN THE
2023NFL DRAFT, THE SEATTLE SEE SEAHAWKS COLLECT DEVON WI
WITHERSPOON, ILLINOIS.
>> WHAT DO YOU THINK THERE? >> I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS
FOOTBALL PLAYER.
I LOVE THIS FIT. THEY'RE IN SEATTLE, I DON'T
THINK THERE WAS A SNOW BALL'S
CHANCE THEY WOULD DO IT. THE LAST TIME THEY DRAFTED A
CORNER IN THE FIRST DRAFT WAS
JENNINGS IN 2006. THEY'VE GOT CORNERS LATER ON BUT
THIS DUDE IS A STUD, MAN.
I THINK WE GOT SICK OF WATCHING THE CALIBER OF DEFENSE THEY WERE
SAYING AND SAID I'M NOT WAITING.
I LOVE THIS KID. >> THEY WERE 28TH IN THE RED
ZONE DEFENSE LAST YEAR AND YOU
MENTIONED FINDING CORNERS LATER. WHAT ROUND DID THEY FIND LAST
YEAR?
FIFTH ROUND. NOW HE'S ADDING THAT COMBINATION
ON THE BACK END OF HIS DEFENSE
BECAUSE HE FELT LIKE TAYLOR REALLY BLOSSOMED AS AN EDGE
RUSHER LAST YEAR WITH 9 1/2
SACKS AND IT MIGHT TELL SOMETHING ABOUT JAYLEN QUARTER.
>> THIS IS WHERE I THOUGHT WE
WOULD TALK ABOUT LIKE IS JAYLEN CARTER A POSSIBILITY?
BRIAN WALTERS, HEAD COACH AT
PURDUE, HE WAS THE DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR AT ILLINOIS AND HE
SAID THERE'S A UNIQUE TRADE
ABOUT WITHERSPOON, WHEN THE PRESSURE RATCHETS UP, HIS
TECHNIQUE IMPROVES.
THE MORE TALK, THE ABILITY IMPROVES.
THAT'S A RARE TRAIT.
>> HE WENT THROUGH THE FIRE AT ILLINOIS, 155 POUND GUY WALKS
INTO THE LOCKER ROOM AND PEOPLE
THINK HE SHOULDN'T BE THERE. HE HAD TO PROVE HIMSELF EVER
MOMENT.
NOW HE'S THE NUMBER FOOICH OVERALL.
>> TRUE FRESHMAN, NEVER LOOKED
BACK. >> LET'S GET INTO THE VIDEO
HERE.
ANOTHER GUY WHO WAS ABOUT 150 POUNDS WHEN HE SHOWED UP ON
CAMPUS IN COLLEGE.
THESE GUYS PLAY WITH A CHIP ON THE SHOULDER.
HE DOESN'T HAVE THE HEIGHT BUT
HE'S A FEISTY PLAYER WHO REMINDS ME OF A LOT OF DENTAL WORK.
THIS IS HOW HE PLAYS.
HE SEES IT, HE TRUSTS, IT HE GOES.
THE ABILITY TO RUN VERTICALLY
NOT A PROBLEM. HE RAN IN THE MID FOUR FOURS.
HE NAILED THAT TIME AT HIS PRO
DAY. THE BALL SKILLS FIND IT, PLAY IT
AND FINISH.
IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT THE BALL. HE KNOWS HOW TO GET IT AND THE
FEISTINESS AS A TACKLER, IT
JUMPS OFF THE SCREEN. HE DOESN'T JUST DRAG GUYS DOWN.
HE GETS AFTER PEOPLE.
HE'S A FUN, FUN PLAYER. >> YOU CAN SEE THE HIGH FIVES
FROM SNYDER.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE? >> THE DETROIT LIONS HAVE TRADED
THE SIXTH PICK TO THE ARIZONA
CARDINALS. WITH THE SIXTH PICK IN THE
2023NFL DRAFT, THE ARIZONA
CARDINALS SELECT PARIS JOHNSON, JUNIOR.
OHIO STATE.
>> SO A PASS PROTECTOR FOR MURRAY WHEN HE COMES BACK FROM
INJURY.
AND IT'S PARIS JOHNSON, THE FIRST LINEMAN OFF THE BOARD.
>> I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY WITH THE
FIRST SELECTION TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW WHERE HIS PRIORITIES LIE
AND THAT'S AT THE LINE OF
SCRIMMAGE. THERE ARE HOLES ALL OVER THE
ROSTER.
THIS IS PROBABLY THE WORST ROSTER IN THE NFL RIGHT NOW.
THERE'S A LOT OF PLACES THEY
COULD HAVE GONE. I THOUGHT PARIS JOHNSON WOULD BE
THE TARGET AND THEY LOOKED AT
THE LANDSCAPE OF SOME TIMES THAT MIGHT BE AHEAD OF THEM AND SAID
LET'S JUST GO GET OUR GUY.
>> THEY NEEDED A SOONER AHEAD OF CHICAGO AND PHILADELPHIA?
>> PROBABLY.
SOMETHING LIKE THAT. >> RAIDERS COULD USE A RIGHT
TACKLE.
>> THEY HAD TO JUMP TO GET UP THERE.
>> I THINK IF THEY WOULD HAVE
HAD TO STICK AT THREE HE WAS GOING TO BE THE TARGET.
REMEMBER, JONATHAN GANNON IN
PHILADELPHIA, HE PROBABLY SAID LET'S TAKE CARE OF KYLER MURRAY.
I'LL KEEP US SOVRLENT UNTIL
WE'RE READY TO GO. >> I WONDER WHEN THEY WENT OUT
THERE TO SIGH KYLER'S STATUE
UNVEILED IN OKLAHOMA, KYLER WAS LIKE, APPRECIATE YOU COMING.
COOL STATUE.
>> AT THAT POINT THEY PUT THEIR ARM AROUND HIS SHOULDER AND
SAID, DON'T WORRY, YOUNG MAN.
WE GOT YOU. >> WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THIS
KID?
>> YOU TALK ABOUT SOMEBODY WHO HAS UNBELIEVABLE LENGTH AND
QUICKNESS AND INTELLIGENCE.
I DON'T THINK HE WAS AN ELITE VENDOR.
I DIDN'T THINK THAT THOMAS WAS
AN ELITE LEADER. HE'S TURNED OUT TO BE THE GREAT
PROFESSIONAL PLAYER.
IF HE GETS BEAT UP, HE HAS THE LENGTH TO WATCH THEM RIGHT UP
THE FIELD.
IN THE RUN GAME YOU SEE FLASHES OF THIS WHERE HE'LL FINISH.
HE CAN LATCH AND DRIVE YOU AND
REMOVE YOU FROM THE LINE. HE FINISHES IN SPACE ANOTHER
GREAT EXAMPLE HERE.
LOOK WHERE HE TAKES IT. THAT'S LIKE BLIND SIDE STUFF.
>> IT'S TIME FOR THAT YOUNG MAN
TO GO HOME >> YES.
>> HE HAS EXPERIENCE PREVIOUSLY
PLAYING INSIDE. HE'LL BE A DAY ONE TACKLE BUT
HE'S EXPERIENCED HAVING PLAYED
GUARD AS WELL AS ON THE OUTSIDE. THIS WAS A PRIORITY MOVE.
LET'S GET THE OFFENSIVE LINE IN
BETTER SHAPE AND ONCE KYLER COMES BACK, GIVE THE GUY A
FIGHTING CHANCE.
>> THIS ACTUALLY IS SOMETHING HERE'S THE RAIDERS' SELECTION IN
KANSAS CITY.
>> WITH THE SEVENTH PICK IN THE 2023NFL DRAFT, LAS VEGAS RAIDERS
SELECT TYREE WILSON, DEFENSIVE
END, TEXAS TECH. >> ALL RIGHT.
SO I DON'T KNOW IF PATRICK
MAHOMES IS STILL BACK THERE BUT HE HAS A CLOSEUP LOOK OF
SOMEBODY COMING TO HAUNT HIM
WITH MAX CROSBY AND CHANDLER JONES HAVING TYREE WILSON ADDED
TO THE DEFENSIVE LINE
>> AND YOU MENTIONED ABOUT HOW THEY HAVE TO GO TO HUNT THE
PEOPLE DOWN.
RICH JUST MENTIONED IT. MAX CROSBY COULD NOT BE HAPPIER
RIGHT NOW.
ALL THE PRESSURE HE'S ADDED, HE'S NEEDED THAT RUNNING MATE
JONES LAST YEAR.
THIS GUY THIS YEAR IN THE ROTATION IS PRETTY STRONG.
>> CHANDLER JONES DID NOT PLAY
AS WELL AS THEY HAD HOPED WHEN THEY MADE THAT MOVE.
IF YOU'RE STRUGGLING TO GET TO
THE QUARTERBACK AND NOT TAKING THE FOOTBALL, THEY DECIDED FRONT
TO BACK.
THAT'S HOW THEY'RE GOING TO OPERATE.
THEY GET MORE PASS RUSH AND
MAYBE THAT WILL HELP ON THE BACK END.
>> THERE WERE SOME CONCERNS WITH
THE FOOT INJURY WITH TYREE. THAT'S GONE BY THE WAY SIDE.
I GOT TO COVER ONE OF HIS GAMES.
HE PLAYED AT TCU THIS LAST YEAR AND LOVED WATCHING HIM ON TAPE
BUT AS YOU KNOW, YOU GET TO THE
GAMES AND YOU CAN GO DOWN. >> THERE WE GO.
>> THAT'S WHAT I SAW IS A GUY
THAT IS JUST -- HE'S CENTRAL CASTING ON THE EDGE IN THE NFL.
>> I HAVE TO ASK YOU GUYS REAL
QUICK, EVERY YEAR WHO IS THE CHIROPRACTOR FOR THE
COMMISSIONER AFTER THIS?
HE TAKES SOME HITS ALONG THE WAY.
WHEN TYREE WILSON GOING, HE'S
THIS YEAR'S TRADE BOMB WALKER. THIS IS THE TRAITS ASPECT OF IT.
>> LOOK AT HIS COMP ON THE
BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. CHANDLER JONES OF.
THAT WAS GOING TO BE HIS
TEAMMATE. WHEN YOU HAVE THOSE ARMS, THAT
SUIT WAS NOT OFF THE RACK.
I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT. THIS GUY USES THAT LENGTH.
HE ATTACKS, BLOCKS, PLAYS
AGGRESSIVE. HE WANTS TO BE ALWAYS MOVING
FORWARD.
HE'S GOING TO BE ABLE TO CLOSE THE BACK SIDE WITH HIS SPEED.
YOU SEE THE SPEED TO POWER AND
THE LONG ARMS OF HIS, HE GETS IN THE CHEST OF THE TACKLE AND IT'S
OVER.
AGAIN, WATCH HIM JUST COLLAPSE. THAT INSIDE LONG ARM, HE DID NOT
SEE A LOT OF GREAT OFFENSIVE
TACKLES ON HIS SCHEDULE THIS YEAR.
THAT'S AN ADJUSTMENT TO HIM.
HE HAS A LOT ON HIS BODY. .
>> WITH THE EIGHTH PICK IN THE
2023NFL DRAFT, THE ATLANTA FALCONS SELECT BIJAN ROBINSON,
RUNNING BACK, TEXANS.
>> THE FALCONS DID IT. THE ATLANTA FALCONS HAD A HIGHLY
TALENTED, HIGH CHARACTER
INDIVIDUAL FROM TEXAS SITTING ON THE DRAFT BOARD WHO JUST HAPPENS
TO PLAY RUNNING BACK IN A LEAGUE
THAT'S ALL ABOUT PASSING AND QUARTERBACK.
A LEAGUE IN WHICH SOMEBODY LIKE
AUSTIN SAID I WOULD LIKE A NEW CONTRACT AND THEY SAY, GO SEEK
IT.
YOU SCORED A TON OF TOUCHDOWNS. SEEK T. HE'S STILL IN LOS
ANGELES.
A LEAGUE IN WHICH WE ALL KNOW THAT DEREK HENRY MIGHT BE
SITTING OUT THERE, WHO THE HECK
KNOWS? BUT YOU GOT BIJAN ROBINSON NOW,
A TOP TEN DRAFT RUNNING BACK IN
THE NFL GOING TO ATLANTA. >> MAYBE THIS IS A TIME WE CAN
REBRAND THE POSITION FOR PEOPLE
LIKE BIJAN ROBINSON. LET'S JUST CALL THEM OFFENSIVE
WEAPONS.
IF WE HAVE SOMEONE IN SAMUEL WHO MAJORED AS A WIDE RECEIVER, WHY
CAN'T WE HAVE A GUY MAJOR AS A
RUNNING BACK GET A RECEIVER? JOHN LYNCH USED THAT WITH KYLE.
HE SAID WE LIST HIM AS AN
OFFENSIVE WEAPON BUT WHEN YOU'RE EXCEPTIONAL, WHEN YOU ARE
SPECIAL, ALL THESE RULES ABOUT
NOT TAKING A GUY GO OUT THE WINDOW.
A LOT OF GRIEF IN NEW YORK ABOUT
TAKING NUMBER TWO. ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION.
NO BARKLEY LAST YEAR, THE GIANTS
A PLAYOFF TEAM. WHEN YOU HAVE THAT GUY, YOU GO
GET HIM AND YOU PUT HIM IN YOUR
LINEUP. >> A DRAFT FULL OF EXCEPTIONS
WHERE GUYS DON'T MEET ALL THE
MARKS. THIS IS A PROTOTYPE PLAYER.
THIRD BEST IN THE ENTIRE DRAFT
CLASS SO TO GET HIM AT NUMBER EIGHT, I THINK THAT'S NOT ONLY
EXCITING BUT GREAT VALUE.
YOU SEE THE NUMBER FIVE, THINK BACK TO JAMES AND THE COLTS
TEAMS.
>> MIAMI? >> ABSOLUTELY.
THAT TYPE OF A DYNAMIC PLAY
MAKER. A LOT OF TIMES YOU HAVE TO
SACRIFICE HIM.
THIS GUY IS VERY EXPLOSIVE BUT HE'S A REAL LOOSE FLUID RUNNER.
IT'S A UNIQUE COMBINATION.
START, STOP. HE CAN STOP ON A DIME.
DID IT 104 TIMES THIS YEAR, MORE
THAN ANY OTHER RUNNING BACK IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL.
>> JUST HO HUM.
THEY CAN'T GET NEAR HIM TO GET HIM ON THE GROUND.
ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE PASSING
GAME, WE TALKED ABOUT THAT OFFENSIVE WEAPON.
YOU CAN SPLIT THEM LIKE THIS.
WATCH THE CONTACT TOUCH. HE CAN MAKE YOU MISS AND MAKE
THINGS HAPPEN AFTER THE CATCH.
THIS IS A SPECIAL, SPECIAL PLAYER.
IT'S TIME FOR NEXT GEN STATS.
SEE THE OVERALL TOP DRAFT SCORER.
HE'S AT THE VERY TOP OF LIST
AGAIN. THERE IS A PROTOTYPE RUNNING
BACK POSITION
>> AND JUST A TERRIFIC NINTH OVERALL IN THE 2023 DRAFT.
>> CHICAGO BEARS HAVE TRADED THE
NINTH PICK TO THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES.
WITH THE NINTH PICK IN THE
2023NFL DRAFT, THE PHILADELPHIA EAGLES SELECT JAYLEN CARTER,
DEFENSIVE TACKLE, GEORGIA.
>> EAGLES MOVED UP TO GRAB DAVIS FROM GEORGIA AND TONIGHT, MOVED
UP ONE SPOT AND SNAGGED JAYLEN
CARTER TO RETEAM WITH GEORGE DAVIS ON THE LINE IN
PHILADELPHIA AND END THIS
GEORGIA BULLDOGS' NIGHT NINTH OVERALL.
HE'S A TOP TEN PICK IN THE
DRAFT. >> DEAN IS GOING TO BE HAVING
FLASHBACKS TONIGHT.
WAIT A SECOND. I'VE GOT THESE TWO GUYS IN FRONT
OF ME AGAIN?
NOW I'M STARTING AT LINEBACKER FOR THE EAGLES?
THIS IS THE MOMENT TALENTED
FOOTBALL PLAYER IN THIS DRAFT CLASS.
IF YOU PULLED ALL 32 TEAMS AND
JUST SAID WHAT YOU SEE ON THE FIELD, WHO HAS THE MOST TALENT,
IT'S THIS GUY AND THIS IS THE
TEAM, IN THE SUPER BOWL LAST YEAR.
THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE TRADE
THEY MADE PREVIOUSLY. WHO GETS TO BE SUPER BOWL
CALIBER TEAM AND ADD THE MOST
TALENTED FOOTBALL PLAYER IN THE NEXT DRAFT?
>> GENERAL MANAGER DEMONSTRATES
HE'S WILLING TO BE A YEAR AHEAD IN TERMS OF DRAFTING.
DEAN SAT LAST YEAR.
HE'S GOING TO START THIS YEAR. HE GETS HIS TRIANGLE IN FRONT OF
HIM.
REMEMBER, THEY BROUGHT BACK COX WHO HAS BEEN A CORNERSTONE OF
THE DEFENSE FOR A LONG TIME.
HERE IS HIS EVENTUAL REPLACEMENT AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, JORDAN
DAVIS.
STAMINA WAS THE QUESTION. HE DIDN'T PLAY MUCH LATER.
HE'S GOT TO INCREASE HIS
STAMINA, INCREASE THE ROTATION OFF THE FIELD.
CAN HE COME ALONG WITH JAYLEN
CARTER AND GIVE THEM THE TWO BOOK ENDS INSIDE FOR THE NEXT
FIVE TO SEVEN YEARS?
>> I JUST WATCHED THIS GUY PLAY AND I MARVEL AT THE
EXPLOSIVENESS THAT HE HAS ON THE
INTERIOR. HE JUST SHEDS BLOCKS SO QUICKLY.
WE GET TO THE QUARTERBACK.
HE IS PRODUCE FROM THE INTERIOR. LISTEN.
OTHER TIMES WHEN IT'S LIKE, HEY
SDSHGS IT LOOK LIKE HE WANTS TO PLAY HERE?
OK.
YEAH. THERE MIGHT BE SOME EFFORT.
BUT WHEN YOU PAIR HIM WITH
COLLEGE TEAMMATES THAT KNOW HIM AND KNOW HOW TO GET THE MOTOR
GOING, THAT WILL HELP JAYLEN
QUARTER. HERE'S PHILADELPHIA AND THEY
HAVE THE TWO PREMIER DEFENSIVE
TACKLES IN THE LAST TWO DRAFTS. >> ON THE PLAY HARD POINT, WHEN
I WATCHED HIM, I THOUGHT HE
CHASED PLAYS. HE HAD AN ANKLE INJURY AND HAS A
KNEE INJURY LATER IN THE SEASON.
HE COULD HAVE SHUT IT DOWN. HE WENT OUT THERE AND PLAYED.
I'LL GIVE THE GUY CREDIT.
>> IN THE NFL, YOU WON'T BE PLAYING 95, EITHER.
>> YOU TALK ABOUT THE QUICKNESS,
LEVERAGE AND POWER AND I DON'T SAY IT LIGHTLY WHEN I SAY
WILLIAMS.
LOOK AT THE KNOCK BACK AGAINST OREGON.
RESET THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.
QUICKNESS, SUDDENNESS. I WROTE IN MY NOTE, THIS GUY
TELE PORTS FROM ONE GAP TO
ANOTHER. I DON'T KNOW HOW HE GETS THERE.
WATCHING STACKS SHED AND MAKE A
TACKLE. ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE CHANGE OF
DIRECTION QUICKNESS.
QUARTERBACK TRIES TO GET AWAY FROM HIM.
GOOD LUCK.
HE'S AN OUTSTANDING FINISHER. HOW ABOUT FULLBACK?
YOU THINK THEY MIGHT HAVE SOME
FUN? THAT'S A THREE-FER.
SO TO ME WHI LOOK AT JAY -- WHEN WERE TALKING ABOUT OFFENSIVE
LINEMAN, THERE ARE OPTIONS.
>> WITH THE TENTH PICK IN THE 2023NFL DRAFT, THE CHICAGO BEARS
SELECT DARNELL WRIGHT, OFFENSIVE
TACKLE, TENNESSEE. >> ALL RIGHT.
WOW.
>> SO IT IS DARNELL WRIGHT WHO IS NOT HERE TONIGHT.
THIS IS THE SECOND OFFENSIVE
LINEMAN OFF THE BOARD. DOES THAT SURPRISE YOU?
>> A LITTLE BIT, YEAH.
THIS IS A VERY TALENTED PLAYER. THIS IS YOUR TENNESSEE.
WE JUST SAW CARTER GO.
WE SAW A LITTLE JALEN CARTER HOLD UP WELL.
WHAT HE DID AGAINST WILL
ANDERSON PUT HIM ON THE MAP THIS YEAR.
TOTALLY DIFFERENT LAST YEAR TO
THIS YEAR. THERE WEREN'T A TON OF
ONE-ON-ONE OPPORTUNITIES BUT
WHEN HE DID HAVE THAT ONE-ON-ONE OPPORTUNITY, HE WAS FINE.
HERE HE IS AGAINST CARTER GO OFF
THE BOARD. DID A GREAT JOB AGAINST HIM.
HE'S 330 PLUS POUNDS.
HE'S PHYSICAL. HE'S STRONG.
HERE HE IS IN THE BOWL GAME.
SO HIS TAPE, YOU WANT TO SEE HIM GO UP AGAINST FIFTH PLAYERS, YOU
SEE HIM GO UP AGAINST GREAT
PLAYERS AND HE HAS THE ABILITY TO KNOCK YOU OFF THE BALL.
THIS HAS BEEN ALL ABOUT JUSTIN
FIELDS AND THEY GOT AN OFFENSIVE TACKLE.
>> THEY WANTED A TACKLE BECAUSE
G
