00:00
But how do you expect that game to translate to the pros?
00:03
And would you expect that some of these teams up in the NFL
00:06
who are, you know, pretty hungry for a couple of quarterbacks,
00:09
would they take that leap and take Hunter with that one spot?
00:14
Yeah, it's funny you bring that up.
00:15
I was thinking about that before we went on air tonight.
00:18
As talented as he is and as incredible and rare that it's
00:22
been to see a two-way player fully justified as the Heisman
00:26
Trophy winner, he's not going to be a two-way player on Sundays.
00:30
It looks like he's going to be a wide receiver and a wide
00:34
receiver only. Would you take a wide receiver number one
00:39
overall? Like that's the question that I have. As a college
00:42
player, he's unique.
00:44
He stands alone.
00:46
But as an NFL player, I don't know if I would invest a number
00:49
one overall pick on a wide receiver, especially since there
00:53
are so many good receivers in this class.
00:55
There will be again in 2025 and beyond.
00:58
I would look quarterback.
01:00
Now, not sure who that guy's going to be, Dubs.
01:03
It could be his teammate Shador Sanders from Colorado, could
01:07
be Cam Ward.
01:08
We could see other candidates that might make their way up.
01:11
We're still waiting on NFL early entries into the draft, but
01:16
I still would say at this point as good as he is, I don't know
01:20
if I would invest a number one overall pick, especially if
01:22
you're a team that needs players everywhere.
01:25
In Travis Hunter.
01:26
So I still would say my money would go on one of the quarterbacks
01:30
depending upon what happens in the pre-draft process.
01:33
Yeah, I'm right there.
01:34
Whether you look at teams like the New York Giants or over
01:37
there in Sin City for the Raiders, much better suited in
01:41
taking a quarterback with that top spot.
01:43
You threw out a couple of names there for who was in the mix
01:47
and well done to Travis Hunter and the Colorado Buffaloes.
01:49
I wrote them off at the start of the year, but they really
01:52
have exceeded all expectations there.
01:54
So well done to Coach Priman.
01:56
Interested to see what that next step is going to look like.
