00:00Gino Smith. I mean, I guess this is a one or two year sort of placeholder here. Again,

00:06if the Raiders draft a quarterback, it wouldn't surprise me, but he's got to be better than what

00:10they had last year. Yeah, the one thing that we think about with Gino Smith is he's essentially

00:17a Chip Kelly quarterback. He's been that way all the way back to West Virginia. They run different

00:22type of concepts there, but it's still some of the things that cross over with the spread

00:27offense. And when you think about that, that's the kind of quarterback that does well in the

00:31Chip Kelly system. So I think when everyone is trying to tie Matthew Stafford or Sam Donald,

00:36you got to have a little bit of mobility in this offense, get the ball out quickly.

00:40Gino obviously has a history in this style of offense and he has history with Pete Carroll. So

00:46I predicted this and I thought this could be the best fit. I didn't know if the Seahawks were going

00:50to get enough from the Raiders to make this move and if they would be gutsy enough, but they're

00:56pretty gutsy right now. Moving away from Gino Smith, blowing up their offense, going to Clint

01:00Kubiak, bye-bye Tyler Lockett, trading DK of Metcalf. Jackson Smith to Jigba is the guy there,

01:07so they need to get help. So these two offenses, the Seahawks and Steelers, basically are blowing

01:12up their passing games and seeing what we can get and push for a higher ceiling because I think these

01:17teams can realize they're not going to win in their current state. They're just going to be average

01:2110-win team at best with the Seahawks and Steelers and that's not enough to win anything big.
