I'm curious on a couple of specific things he said yesterday, specifically on Will Campbell
00:05
and Travis Hunter.
00:06
He said you've got to evaluate Campbell as a tackle.
00:09
It made it sound like Travis Hunter would be a guy who played on one side of the ball
00:13
or the other, and then they'd put more on his plate.
00:16
Did you gain any insight into what the Patriots may be doing it for based on those answers?
00:21
Definitely.
00:22
I think if they take Travis Hunter, Travis Hunter is going to come in with an expectation
00:26
that he's voiced, that he's going to be met with, sorry, we're not doing it your way,
00:31
Travis.
00:32
You're 23 or 22 or whatever you are.
00:34
We're going to do it our way, and you're going to play on the offensive side of the ball
00:37
because we have two corners, a $20 million one and an all-pro.
00:41
So come on over.
00:43
Get yourself comfortable because you're not going to have a $20 million cornerback and
00:46
Carlton Davis who's a backup.
00:48
So I found that telling because if you draft Travis Hunter, you're probably drafting him
00:54
as an offensive player, and he's not what you would call a finished offensive product
01:00
yet because he's just not been devoted at the same level that some of the excellent
01:05
receivers last year.
01:06
Your McLeek neighbors or Ryan Thomas' or anybody else who came out in last year's draft.
01:10
So to me, I find it really interesting, and I thought it was informative, and I did glean
01:15
from the Campbell answer that if you're going to point out how well he looked in the SEC,
01:23
which I think you rightly should, this is the safest thing to do to make sure you don't
01:28
screw up the pick.
01:29
And so you can get immediate bang for your buck is get the appliance that your house
01:32
needs at four.
01:34
And I know you guys keep saying, and I understand you don't do that at four, but this year's
01:39
four is not like the other years for us.
01:41
Well, I think if he's a left tackle, I am, you know, all right, taking him at four.
01:46
I would rather have Travis Hunter, but he might be off the board.
01:49
So if he's off the board, cause variable had that good line about, well, if you tell me
01:52
who's going one through three, I can tell you who's going four.
01:54
And so it does.
01:57
My takeaway was maybe similar is like, it probably will end up being Will Campbell.
02:00
And then I think if a year from now he ends up being a left guard, like, man, that is,
02:05
that is so at this point, if they drafted Tyler Warren, all right, more traded down
02:09
and drafted Tyler Warren.
02:11
No, no, no.
02:12
I wouldn't flip out.
02:13
You are you.
02:14
I heard you asking variable about this.
02:15
You're like, take all the tight ends.
02:16
I like Tyler Warren.
