from disaster restoration, but it's time to get into some football here and we're going
to head out to the make it right call Kyle right hotline about two weeks to the NFL
draft. Garrett Greenley at football analysis on YouTube does great work on there. If
you haven't caught any of his content yet, he joins us now. Garrett, welcome to the show.
Appreciate you guys having me on. What an intro and looking forward to talking football.
I will do these things professionally for you. If you just want me to be the intro guy,
like record intros that pump you up for other radio hits, I'm very pricey, but I can
be bought. I like it. I mean, it was that was quality. All right. So let's get to, let's
get big picture here. Cause I think the O line at six conversation is really interesting.
Regardless of position, who is the best offensive lineman in this draft in your opinion?
To me, it's Frances Malinoa, the offensive lineman from Miami. Now there is conversation
about Malinoa who played right tackle for Miami last year about him kicking inside the
guard at the next level. And there's a lot of conversation about arm length. And there's
another guard from Penn State named Vega, Awane, who's a really, really good guard prospect.
And I think most of those players project at the NFL level to be good longtime starters
at the guard position. But then there's a conversation of with the Browns picking a pick
six of whether or not we want to draft a guard at pick six simply due to the position
of value, whenever there's a conversation with the, you know, the roster and where the
receivers are currently on the roster. And do we have a legit wide receiver one of the
future as well? So for me, that's your best in the draft are Frances Malinoa and Vega,
Awane, both both players that I think will be guards at the next level. Oh, so that's
interesting. So you're not a Spencer Fano guy. I like Fano. I just don't think he's in
the caliber as as Malinoa and Awane are where do you see him in the NFL? Do you see him
as a tackle or inside? I would personally prefer Fano inside. And I think there's a conversation
there. There really isn't a true center of one in this class. I mean, I mean, not until
day two of the NFL drafts, I think there's an actual conversation to be had if Fano could
kick inside the center. There's usually the tackle to guard conversation. But with Fano,
there's kind of the tackle to center conversation. What's interesting about like when you bring
up Awane is that we just have not done any discussions on him essentially. It's been a lot
of Malinoa. We've done a lot of Fano recently. We've done a lot of Monroe Freeling and
bringing in somebody that we know is just going to be a guard. I don't know why. Should
we be talking more about that for the Browns at six or is that just too much of a reach
there? In terms of, so in terms of positional value, it would probably be deemed as a reach
there. Where Cleveland is, there's several avenues they could go down where I think you
could justify a couple of picks. Malinoa would be a good pick to me. I think Awane would
be a fine pick. I think it wouldn't be that you'd look at it a couple of years and say,
hey, you know, was it the sixth overall pick? Yes. But is he a really good starter for us?
And is he? I don't want to say he's the next, you know, in terms of success, like the
next Joe Batonio guy that's going to be here for as long as Joe Batonio was there has
been in Cleveland, but he's that type of player where he's going to plug and play for the
next several years. So in a clap that is not as talented as other draft classes, I think
if there's ever a year to justify taking a guard at six overall, especially with the
offensive line concerns that Cleveland had entering this off season, though I do want
to credit Andrew Berry. I think they've done a tremendous job in terms of addressing
the offensive line this off season with the limited resources they had. I think this
would be the year. Garrett, is it wide receiver, O line or bust for the Browns at six and 24?
Are you more wide open to what they could do? I hate to give this answer, but it's going
to depend on how the forward plays out. Cleveland also has an early second round pick. So there's
maybe if somebody starts to fall, maybe not that you would trade 24 and 39 both, but there's
a conversation. If somebody starts the fall, you mentioned Monroe Freeling. If Monroe Freeling
starts to fall maybe to pick 13 or 14 and maybe you took a receiver at pick six, maybe
we look to trade up from 24 to 14, 24 to 15 somewhere in there because Cleveland's going
to have the ammo to be able to do it. And the one thing about Monroe Freeling, I like
him as a prospect. What I really did not like was in the past couple of months because
I think in the media, we're certainly over reactionary at times was we went into the
combine where it was Monroe Freeling was almost guaranteed to be available for Cleveland
at 24 and he was more of a late first round pick. There was talks about New England getting
him at 31 and then we come out of the combine after he and credit to Monroe. He has a really
good performance and all of a sudden we're talking about Monroe Freeling going to Cleveland
at six. So I'm not sold to Monroe at six. I think there's a chance that he falls into
the mid teams and then we could have the conversation about Cleveland potentially trading up to
go get who would hopefully be there left tackle in the future.
Isaac, give me your home run back to back six and 24 and you can include the trades
into the teams if you'd like as well and mention it mentioned how on draft night after
round one, you're like, wow, Andrew Barry really knocked that out of the park.
Cardinal States, my wide receiver one in this class. I think he compares pretty favorably
to George Pickens. He does all to me does all the little things right. He's a really good
route runner. He's a tremendous player. I would love for Cleveland to take him at pick
six. I would love for the Browns to be able to somehow acquire one of Monroe Freeling
Avega or all of Avega one eight. If Maui Noah Fano, one of them starts to slip or Monroe
not sure if I mentioned it, but one of those four we can somehow get one of those four
along with Cardinal State. Then we're looking at two good players on the Browns roster for
the next several years for a team that I mean, I don't want to like slim the Browns
offense here, but for an offense that desperately needs it, I would say all right. So I really
like Jordan Tyson and I I'm always a little flabbergasted when people are like, well, he's
not worth a six pick. But do you get him to the 12? That's real value there. All because
of injuries, how much should injury, history, ding Jordan Tyson in this draft?
Well, if I mean, the thing is it has to be brought up. And in terms of like draft, I
wouldn't feel comfortable or in terms of where to draft. And I certainly wouldn't feel
comfortable drafting Tyson at pick six. But if he were there at 24, then I would I
would feel comfortable taking him at 24. He's he's a really, really talented player. The
flashes are absolutely there. And the reality with Jordan Tyson is he still has to play
football over the past couple of years. And he's still been a really productive receiver. So
I mean, he's I know what the media kind of makes it out to be, but contrary to what it's
talked about, he has actually played football in the past couple of years. So if he's there in the
in the late team, I mean, with all the capital Cleveland had, they think they are a prime team
to to be in a position to trade up. So Tade ends up going four or five somewhere before the Browns
at six then is your suggestion for the Browns is just don't go wide receiver and then wait until
24 to get a macaque women or a Tyson or a Cooper or someone else. I would I would prefer
car now eight or now we know at six, one of the two. All right. So let's look at 24 two guys that
have been linked to the Browns at 24, Casey Konsepcione at Texas NM and Kenyon Sadiq the Titan out
of Oregon. I am allergic to receivers or to people that catch the ball for a living who might
have issues catching the ball. Who do you like more at 24 for the Browns Sadiq or Konsepcione?
I mean, I'm going to be honest, I would actually prefer me there. I was low list rather look elsewhere,
um, but between the two specifically though, I'd rather go Konsepcione and I know the drop
concerns are there with Casey. I really love Harold Fanon. I think he's a top. I mean,
I don't want to get into the rankings, but I'll just say that he's a starter for this team for
the next several years. And I thought that was a really good pick last year. So if I had to choose
there, I would prefer Casey Konsepcione. What do you not like about Sadiq so much?
I thought that I don't like Sadiq. It's more of him going to Cleveland with Harold Fanon already
there. I would rather draft there. I mean, there's several positions. I would rather draft rather than
Kenyon Sadiq with a first round pick specifically to the Browns. I think that adding another
corner would certainly be fine there. This is a good corner cloth. And honestly, I mean,
if the value is there, I wouldn't put a, you know, an address or opposite of Miles Garrett,
I think that would be the worst thing. And there's only Kenyon Sadiq specifically going to Cleveland.
All right. I'm having a massive brain fart here. Uh, I'm sorry. If I asked this already,
I could have a concussion. Nick did go down the stairs yesterday. So we just don't know what we're
playing with today. So the, but my question is, who is your wide receiver one?
My personal wide receiver one is Cardell State. I feel like he did ask that. Like he answered that
one already. I thought it was part of the Jordan Tyson thing. Oh, he's been fatically with like
Cardell State. And if it's not, it's, he, I think you said, Tate or Maui Noah is the only two
guys you'd take in number six over road. He did say that I did fall down the stairs. I mean, that's
what that was. That being said, why? Why? I think Cardell State is, he has not only NFL
guys, but I think there's a conversation when times whenever receivers get taller that there's
kind of the synchronization that because they're a taller receiver that they're not as crisp
route runners. But I think Cardell State is a really good intermediate route runner 15 yards
down the field. And I also think he does a really good job of tracking the football 25 plus yards
down the field. I also think he's a tremendous contested catch player as well. And when you talk
about a player that has a high floor at the NFL level, a guy that, I mean, if Shore Sanders is
going to be the quarterback in 2027, but he has a safety blanket in Cardell Tate at every level
of the field. I think that this is a player that if he goes to a good situation and, you know,
we're talking about a dome in a couple of years in Cleveland that this could very easily be a
multiple time 1000 yard receiver. How comfortable should Brown's fans be about the idea of
potentially taking someone like Jeremiah love? Is it even realistic at six overall from the view
even be there to begin with? I would say realistic for him to be there. I would be kind of surprised
if they did. I know Quinshawn had a nasty injury at the end of last year and they also drafted a
running back from Tennessee and Dylan Stanton a player that I liked a lot last year. I would put
the probability of the Browns drafting Jeremiah love probably less than 10%.
All right, let's get to I always love to do this because, you know, three years from now,
they're going to be players who make everyone look laughably wrong on both sides of the aisle.
But three years from now, who are a few guys that we're all going to say we're under drafted in this draft?
There's a tight end from Stanford named Sam Rauch. He is 66 to 65. He is short arms,
that's one of the concerns. But he's a player that I don't know why he is being as undervalued as he
is. He's right now a mid to late third round prospect. And that's actually a player I would prefer
the Browns to draft later in the draft than Kenyans did each specifically for the Browns roster
and where their outlook is. Sam Rauch is one of them. I also like another Buckeye Davis and
Egg Benosan. I think he's a fun day to corner prospect. So you can be a solid CB2 with the next
level. And I'll throw in here. I really like Seth McGow and a running back from Kentucky as well.
He's kind of a day three guy, a day three sleeper. I think he can be a running back to with the next
level. If Shinore Sanders was on the field with Ty Simpson and you can only choose one quarterback
tomorrow to win a game for the fate of the universe who are you choosing?
This is a loaded question here. I would, you know, with the NFL experience underneath his belt,
I'm going to go Shinore Sanders. You said loaded question. What do you got on Ty Simpson?
I mean, I like Ty. I think he's a better prospect than Shinore was coming out. I think that he is
a bit of a project just because he didn't start, I mean, he didn't start many games during his
time in Alabama. But I think that he is, I mean, he's a player that certainly needs a year to develop.
And I do think in terms of setting quarterbacks up for success that he would need a year to
sit behind somebody and really learn. And I think we kind of went from back in the early to mid-2000s
where it was cool and it was acceptable to have quarterbacks develop. And then we kind of went
in the 2010s where it wasn't acceptable. I mean, you need to play guys right now. And now we're
kind of leaning back to it being acceptable to let guys develop. So I'd like Ty Simpson to sit a
year. But right now, I probably say Shinore Sanders is a better player.
Garrett, great stuff, man. We'll make sure people follow you there at football analysis on YouTube.
And I'm sure we'll bug you throughout the rest of the draft process and into the regular season
as well. We appreciate you. Appreciate you guys having me.
