00:00First overall pick odds, a market that was moving during Alabama, Georgia, which I really,

00:10really appreciated a market that probably moved a little bit yesterday during Alabama

00:14Vanderbilt and not the direction you would have anticipated.

00:20But I think that we're at a point in time coming off of a wild Saturday of college football.

00:26People are consistently peeking over at this board and one of the real intrigues Donnie

00:31is last year at this time minus 500 Caleb Williams was around you or Bryce.

00:38We sit here in October plus 500 Carson Beck and he's the listed favorite right now.

00:44It's interesting that he is the listed favorite here knowing that you have some explosive

00:48players behind him.

00:49But I guess he's that cookie cutter.

00:51I'm six foot four plus I sit in the pocket.

00:53I got a strong arm.

00:54I'm in the SEC.

00:55I'm winning football games, national championships.

00:57I can understand at this point, but for me, he actually would not be my number one overall

01:01pick, nor would I bet him to be the number one overall pick.

01:04I think you got that next wave of NFL players, which is so enticing, which when you see Jaden

01:09Daniels come into the NFL and you go, I can get something like that with a guy with just

01:13as good an arm.

01:14Sign me up for that.

01:15Absolutely.

01:16I think when you make the assessment or correlation of Carson Beck, the first quarterback that

01:20I try to relate him to is Trevor Lawrence, right?

01:23Prototypical dropback passer, six five, six four, big kid, live arm, same type of pedigree,

01:30right?

01:31But if you're looking for the Jaden Daniels, Caleb, where you could utilize versatility,

01:35the RPO game, he's not your guy.

01:38Maybe you go to a different quarterback like a Jalen Milrell.

01:41I threw it out there for you.

01:42Or Donnie brings up versatility, right?

01:46So the first person I think of, Kev, is your guy, Travis Hunter.

01:50Both sides of the ball, versatile.

01:52If you're looking for that type of versatility where, hey, you know, the guys, he's certainly

01:56not going to play 105 plays in the NFL, but could he give you a little on offense and

02:01could it be that lockdown corner or could it be that elite wide receiver and play a

02:06few plays on defense?

02:07I mean, that's where the versatility for me comes in at 18 to one.
