00:00Do you think Allen is a fair comp for Drake May, or should we just punt on that?

00:04He's way too high-end at this point in time.

00:06I saw the Twitch chat mentioning Herbert.

00:08We've talked about Herbert before.

00:09Like, is Allen even a fair comp for Drake May?

00:11That's what Callahan brought up.

00:13So I think it is.

00:14Like, I think that's obviously high-end because of what he's turned into.

00:18But if you look at coming out of college, it was Josh Allen and Justin Herbert were, like, the two names that got brought up a lot.

00:24Sort of, like, just the physical attributes of those guys and even some of the college stuff, too.

00:30So, yeah, I don't see why you'd run away from that.

00:33Like, Herbert, in fact, is a much better rookie quarterback than Josh Allen was.

00:37But then Josh Allen sort of passed him in, like, the high-speed lane as far as, like, who's the better quarterback.

00:42So I think, yeah, I think for a couple of years you can – I mean, Josh Allen didn't really, really break through until his third year.

00:48So even Drake May, like, this year doesn't have to put up those kind of numbers.

00:52Like, let's just see where he's going.

00:54But, yeah, I think it'd be crazy to, you know, to completely write it off and be like, oh, there's no chance.

00:59Like, let's give him a shot.

01:00There's real coaching, some better players around him.

01:03Just another year to be in the NFL.

01:06That year one to two jumps should be one of the biggest that you can have.

01:10So, yeah, I think it's a fair comp.

01:11Did year two Josh Allen have Stevie Johnson?

01:14You remember him from the Bills?

01:15Yeah, he ate money sandwiches.

01:17There was a video of him literally eating money sandwiches.

01:19And you're like, what's a money sandwich?

01:20It was money, like currency, like paper dollar bills inside of bread, and he chewed and ate it.

01:27Look, when you have a lot of money, you can do that.

01:29I don't think it's very healthy for him.
