00:00You're going to hear the player I like outside the top five

00:03and then the player I don't like, and it may seem inconsistent

00:05based on where they line up.

00:07I like Jacob Parrish out of Kansas State as a slot corner,

00:10and I like him because of where I think you can get him.

00:13I think he's a day-two guy.

00:15I don't think you need to overdraft him in round one

00:17or the first half of round one,

00:20and I think if you're talking specifically about the Patriots in need,

00:23that is where they could use a corner.

00:24Now, your slot corner plays a lot.

00:26I mean, they're borderline full-time starters in some defenses

00:29that have three corners on the field.

00:30Some of that is dependent on who your opponent is that week.

00:33Some of that is dependent on scheme.

00:34But to me, that's a guy that where he's going,

00:38and based on his skill level, I like.

00:39He has made a top-30 visit to the New England Patriots.

00:42He ran 4-3-5 in the 40.

00:44He's 5-10, 191, so he's small.

00:46He's a slot corner.

00:48That's, again, I think a need for the Patriots right now

00:51unless you're really high on Marcus Jones defensively, which I'm not.

00:55The production, I could use a little more out of him.

00:57He only had one pick in 2024, but that's a player I like

01:00based on where you'd expect him to go, Jacob Parrish, out of Kansas State.

01:04Who don't you like, Keith?

01:05I don't love Maxwell Hairston from Kentucky.

01:08He's a little bit of a guy, and so similar to you, this might seem counter.

01:12Both he and the guy, like Morrison, were hurt last year.

01:15But Morrison, to me, I feel like is more likely to sustain an NFL season.

01:20This guy's pretty small.

01:21Yeah, based on his frame.

01:21So Harrison's shorter, and he's also like 183, and it's a slim, wiry frame

01:29is what he's been described as.

01:31So that I don't love.

01:33Certainly not a first-round pick.

01:34And then even in the second round, if it was between him and Morrison,

01:37I think I would for sure lean Morrison.

01:40Two-year starter at Kentucky, so you know he's played against good opponents

01:43and things like that.

01:44So he checks those boxes.

01:46But just a little bit of a guy, and I would be worried about it.

01:49He had a shoulder injury, unlike Morrison coming off the hip.

01:52Okay, I don't like, and again, not to seem inconsistent,

01:54as I just talked up a slot corner, and Keith's talking up injured guys

01:57and talking down injured guys, so we're all over the map.

01:59I don't love Jaday Barron for where he's going to go.

02:02If he's going in the top 10, I'm not, similar to our conversation

02:06about Will Campbell, and yes, I mean Campbell this time.

02:08Here it is.

02:08I'm not taking a guard in the top 10.

02:11You know, I don't love the idea of taking a right tackle in the top 10.

02:14I don't want a slot corner in the top 10.
