00:00Let's do the AP Offensive Player of the Year.
00:03Yeah, and I understand the Offensive Player of the Year is more a statistical award
00:07rather than your better, great all-around season.
00:10Saquon Barkley, who had the best season in NFL history
00:14if you go through the Super Bowl, right, in terms of total yardage.
00:18He is plus 500.
00:20He's got the shortest odds.
00:22Now, the second guy is interesting.
00:25You would think it would be Jamar Chase's plus 1,200.
00:28No, it's Jameer Gibbs of the Lions at plus 1,000, Scott, who's phenomenal.
00:34He puts up massive yardage in the run and pass game, lots of touchdowns.
00:39My pick this year, and he was good last year.
00:41He improved from his rookie season.
00:43He enters year three.
00:44He's B. John Robinson, the running back from Atlanta, at plus 1,200.
00:47Derek Henry got his contract extension, who was incredible last season.
00:52Scott, he turns 31.
00:53He's plus 1,400.
00:54But my pick would be B. John Robinson, who's a special back, at plus 1,200.
01:00I like those odds.
01:01See, the thing with Puka Nakua is he's plus 1,600.
01:04He's got Devontae Adams on the other side now.
01:07He's got a big injury history.
01:08When he plays, he's phenomenal.
01:09But he's been hurt a lot, Scott.
01:10He's been on the sidelines too much.
01:12So, I want to see this J.J. fly off the handle and play for the Vikings.
01:17And if he is as good as they think he is, then I like those odds of Justin Jefferson at plus 1,600.
01:25If that quarterback is healthy and playing, he's got a shot to bust out.
01:29Because everyone knows he's really unguardable.
01:32Like when I think they haven't had a quarterback.
01:35So, now, if this guy comes through like they think he will, I like those odds.
01:41All right, let's move on to the AP Defensive Player of the Year.
01:45Yeah, and this is one that Myles Garrett's always up there.
01:48He's got the shortest odds.
01:49It's plus 700.
01:50Now, Aiden Hutchinson, we'll get to in the second segment, the comeback player of the year.
01:55He's going to be everyone's favorite for that, most likely.
01:58He's also plus 700.
02:00Scott, he's coming off a compound fracture.
02:02Now, I know he's running.
02:03He's looking good.
02:04That's still a serious injury to come back from.
02:07Micah Parts is a plus 750.
02:09They're still working on his deal.
02:11J.J. Watt, who's in his 30s now, plus 850.
02:14Max Crosby, who had all sorts of injuries, high ankle sprain and others, plus 1,100.
02:19The very underrated Will Anderson, edge rusher, who's been a terrific, plus 1,200.
02:24Nick Bosa, Bears, plus 1,500.
02:27My pick, Scott, is a guy who got double-teamed more than any defensive lineman in the National Football League.
02:34Last season, it's Jalen Carter, Scott.
02:37Jalen Carter, it's plus 1,800 with the Eagles.
02:40He is unstoppable.
02:42He's phenomenal.
02:44Not everybody talks about Jalen Hurts and their offense and how great it's Saquon Barkley.
02:48Jalen Carter, plus 1,800.
02:51And a great sleeper, dark horse here.
02:53It would be Jared Verse, the edge rusher for the Rams.
02:56Terrific rookie season.
02:57Plus 2,200.
02:59But I would go, my money would be on Carter at plus 1,800.
03:03Then Jared Verse at 2,200.
03:04I like, I'm flipping those.
03:08I like Verse to get it because I don't think they pay enough attention to him like Carter gets doubled and tripled because he's such a menace to society that he gets so much attention.
03:21I think Verse has been left to roam free and cause damage.
03:25And at that price, if I can hit that at 2,200, I'm loving life.
03:30I think he's an absolute freak.
03:32And by the way, Trey Hendrickson is still looking for his deal.
03:36It's plus 2,800.
03:37He's another player.
03:39He plays in anonymity.
03:40Why?
03:40Because everybody talks about Joe Burrow, who we talked about earlier.
03:44Those great receivers.
03:46Our guy Tee Higgins and, of course, Jamar Chase.
03:48Trey Hendrickson, one of these days, is going to get the great recognition that he deserves.
03:52One of the top two edge rushers the last two seasons.
03:55Plus 2,800.
03:56But again, you and I are...
03:58Is he going to get a deal done?
04:00It's gotten ugly.
04:01Here's what I'm going to tell you, Scott.
04:03We're in May.
04:04People worry about this stuff in May.
04:06It matters when you get to training camp in late July.
04:09I expect them to move on the number that they've already offered him.
04:14But the problem is he's got a number in mind and they're not close to it.
04:17And that's the issue right now.
