Touchdowns and Tangents

Aren't y'all tired of these cloud chasings and no chemistry radios? Which is which is right? Culty, We actually got something of that. This is Touchdowns and Tangents, your weekly spot for NFL takes topical tangencies and context for the coach got. So tune in, tune in because you never know if any of the take. But either way away at the touchdowns down, what's up? Good people? Touchdowns and Tangents Here from Hawsthorne, California. I m P. D Camrio and he is got up. I'm sinking tired. All right, Well that's the energy we're showing the show with. But uh, you know, my name is my name? You know by now hopefully talks about my name is Pete. Kenneth Frank James Bay. Thank you anyways, Yeah, I forgot what I was gonna say. Oh, I was gonna say, hopefully I'll remember to upload the episode this week. But yeah, so no episode was up. There and we're actually on time, but we're not live, so it really doesn't matter. We're just talking in the ether whatever space we're in right now. But yeah, man, the draft isn't a week from a week from today, Oh week go wait, oh week go away, which is crazy snuck up on us. So many interviews, so much content. I think we're just gonna casually drop interviews like, hey, you know we called this guy. A lot of rumors still circulating, a lot of last minute workout sessions. A lot of chatter about Jackson Darby in the first round, A lot to talk about where gent is gonna go. They didn't a lot to talk about where There's gonna go. They had a last minute workout with the Giant. And people are saying the Saints are wild cardinal for sure door the Raiders are supposed to be a sure thing for gent T, but. I guess the Cowboys are also super interested. So people were saying the Raiders might take Membo, the missoo left tackle, the missoo right tackle yeh six yep, which is kind of crazy. You kind of said he was going to be a fast rising. He ran the fastest forty out all the lineman, like a four eight five or something, and he had great testing, and he has a great. Tape and you can play tackle or guard. And the Saints right tackle just have to retire because the knee problems. So there Carr's alleged or not alleged, but his injury, his shoulder issue where he can miss significant time. It's kind of like, Aspencer Rattler, you don't really need to take a quarterback. It wouldn't make sense to take a quarterback, even if. You're planning on moving on from Derek Carr after this year, because he has forty six million, because you pro rated his contract, so you still need like you need a right tackle. It's kind of almost obvious what the Saints are gonna do. Like I could see them possibly trading up to get Will Campbell, the LSU tackle. You know, maybe move Trevor Pinning to the right side, but Will Kimball. Will Campbell had left tackle. He's from Louisiana. Speaking of which, Rectipece to Kyraen Lacy he's the NFL draft prospect. His lawyer came up pretty much said he's innocent, and there's so much information that I'm privy to, like the media destroyed the kids name and legacy and just flatinantly lied on him. And he said, oh, I'm coming for people. He's like, I got stuff that's coming out here. His attorney was like, he wasn't even the person who calls the accident. So when people say allegedly, it's like he wasn't the one who caused the accident. He fled the scene, but like the cops, I guess, like chased him the day before his hearing, and they his lawyer was like, yeah, there's no factual, formal charges that have even been filed. So everybody's saying he killed a guy. No charges have been filed, so you can't say he killed someone, and people have just been were destroying that kid on social media. He already, like. You know, had questions about his character, people saying, oh the whole gun. I mean, even if he did, it's not like him losing his life makes anything better, provides any sort of justice. It just makes it more tragic and sad. He shot himself. He killed himself because nobody deserves to die that way, and he didn't. He didn't have to, Like he made a rash decision. That's what it's like you would saying, oh, your brain isn't fully developed into your twenty five It really isn't. You look back at like twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven, and you're like, damn, I was kind of fucking stupid. When I was younger. It's kind of sad. I was like really emotionally erratic or like he realized, Oh, I'm glad, I'm better than who I used to be. But it's is so fortunate. You know, they killed. Kyra relates, she kills himself. He ran a four or five l stu's pro day, great time for him. Some people almost had him as the first round tick, first round pick. Potentially he's gonna go high. You know, he transferred from Louisiana, got to play at LSU, you live out his dream shat behind a bunch of first round picks, and you know, it's just unfortunate that he chose to take his own life. So yeah, it's just kind of like. There's been a lot of there's way more dramatic stuff happening around this draft than last year. For sure. I think there's gonna be a lot of trade movement, which I mean, we'll talk a little bit about more later. But one other things that came out this past week is there's gonna be players making the second Brown selections. So real quick. The list as is, Patrick Peterson, Keith Brooking, Jason Brown, Lee Evans, Chubber, Hubbard, There's White, Tim Cremery, Joe Thomas, Travis, Frederick, Bonnie Ball, Terry and Arnold, Mason, Crosby, Amon Green, James Jones, Jerry Kramer, Clayton Matthews, Jordie Nilson, Dave Robinson, Owen Daniels, Jonathan Taylor, Aric Armstead, t J. Slaughter, Dante Hall, Steve Westnowsky, Melvin Gordon, Michael Brockers, Alec Ingle, Stu Voyd, James White, Ryan Ramsack, Jason Seahorn, John Abraham Big, John Abraham o Allen, Lynn Swan, Julian Peterson, Sewn, Alexander, Richard Sherman, Simeon Rice, Keith Bullock, and Gary Clark. So in that group, I think about twelve of them are Wisconsin alumni, just because obviously the drafts in Green Bay, they want to make sure Wisconsin's well represented. I think there's like seven or eight Green Bay packers on this list, which obviously they're going to lead the pack as far as that, and I think. There's like three or four Hall of Famers on here. And there's one more fun fact about this group, Oh, a bunch of them are from the two thousand drive class. Since this is twenty five years since then. That class. That's why you see guys like trying to Alexander on the list. Yeah, it'll be interesting to see some some familiar guys from our golden era watching foot, watching football, and really playing man. The crazy part is there really are a lot of dudes who aren't here anymore. Yep. I still have the Drew Brees Madden cover and a couple of other older ones, and it's like some. Of the people in this game are no longer here. Some of the people in this game sons our first round picks Patrick Sartain Jr. Crazy word, absolutely crazy. I thought you had I thought you're gonna say something, so I kind of paused. That's it. Yeah, slip to Kyrie Jackson too. By the way, it's been almost a year since he died. Yeah, I got drafted. Uh by the Vikings, it was him and his friend were killed at the car accident because some drunk bitch wasn't paying attention. That's a lot. Yeah, she she should get suited into another lifetime. Crashes all her fault us You want to talk about for the draft before we move on? Uh, Yeah, I mean there's mostly. There's mostly just a lot of talk about like the value of quarterbacks in this draft, because like Jalen Milwirl was one of the seventeen people who got invited to the Combine, I mean, not the combine, got invited to the draft, and it's like most people who get invited to the draft, you're going first round. That's why they're inviting you. So if it turns to a situation where he doesn't, I just feel really bad for him because I remember what Lamar went through, or what a handful of other guys went through. DK. I think DK showed up in the draft, he had to wait till the next day. Like that's embarrassing, especially if every if everybody like prognosticated you to go first round. That's why a lot of prospects are like, man, I'm an throw a draft party with my family as Ash was there. Yeah, I don't. I don't blame folks blayme folks for wanting to avoid that whole, entire awkward situation. I mean, there's not a whole lot to gain from it when you really think about it. I mean, unless that's really the physical moment you've envisioned your head. It's like, what's really the benefit of being there. You know, you're just for going having that moment at home with the people that matter most to have it, you know, really to really be a fish in a bowl you think about it and just sit there and watch and have people watch you sweat it out as you kind of determine where your life's gonna begin. So I think it's a lot of unnecessary pressure, which I mean, if you're not a lock, why would you put yourself in that situation? To me, yeah, man, this trucks. Like I said, I think there's gonna be a lot of movement. I think it's gonna be really interesting, especially after those first. Four to five picks. Coach football, you go to UCLA. Yeah, I guess you got the money you wanted. I mean, remember he signed a three year, eight million dollar deal out of high school to go to Tennessee and he was trying to get money and reports you're saying his dad was trying to get more money going into the playoffs. Like this kid lends you to a playoff, you need to pay him more money. And Josh Iippel stuffed to his guns, as you should have because you should. Stand on Well, I was listening to some people saying, and they were saying, you know, you gotta remember, like he signed this deal out of high school and basically it kind of set the standard for a lot of people, and so everyone just kind of leap frogged him because he really set the standard. But that's not the university's fault, and that was a university standpoint is you know, hey, we made this
