00:00Most people were on Cole Strange.
00:01I think most people were jumping on Cole Strange.
00:03I think some of the other ones are a hit or miss, I guess, over that time.
00:08If you're looking at Taequann Thornton,
00:11I do remember specifically pointing out that whole year
00:14how they reached on every pick other than maybe Marcus and Jack Jones.
00:18Everybody else was projected to go,
00:20and you can say whatever you want about projections,
00:22but Cole Strange famously projected maybe to be a third-rounder.
00:25Taequann Thornton was supposed to be pushed down as well.
00:27They overdrafted everybody, and they were wrong.
00:30But this is also one of those things where you have to sort of pick
00:32how you want the draft to be discussed.
00:35Because in real time, people are like,
00:37you won't know until five years.
00:39That's the thing, the pushback you get a lot of times.
00:41Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:41How do you even know?
00:42No one has any idea.
00:43Oh, well, you guys are all just like a revisionist history.
00:46It's like, well, now we actually have a sample size of what they did in the NFL.
00:50And I'm not even doing a Bill Belichick all drafts talk.
00:55We're talking about the 2022 draft,
00:57because specifically they just cut their first rounder.
00:59But make no mistake, I mean...
01:01He had a lot of bad ones, yes.
01:02Yeah, and part of the reason the roster blows is because he had a lot of bad...
01:05It's not just Elliott Wolfe.
01:06Yeah.
01:07Like, a lot of people are like, oh, Wolfe and Mayo,
01:09and they were all brainless, and look at the position you got left in.
01:12I mean, Gonzalez can play.
01:13Go look at that draft.
01:14Keon White, he's getting beat out by Caleb on Chase,
01:17and that's not looking like a great pick.
01:19He has a couple of receivers in the sixth round.
01:21Let's see what Booty and Pop Douglas are.
01:22A punter?
01:23But, like, even that draft, Gonzalez is great.
01:25Yeah.
01:26When he's out there, Gonzalez is great.
01:28But even that draft.
01:29So a big part of why you're here isn't just Elliott Wolfe's crap draft last year,
01:34which was terrible.
01:35Yeah.
01:35It's the Cole Strange one.
01:36It's everything after Christian.
01:38I mean, Bill had a string of terrible drafts in a row,
01:40which is a big reason why you are where you are.
01:43And I know you weren't dumping on him for that reason.
01:46But if people want to defend some of his drafts,
01:48I would just point out the reason the roster blows
01:50and you've got to keep nine offensive linemen
01:52and eight wide receivers
01:54and you can only keep three running backs
01:55is because Bill didn't leave you much.
