00:00At Brendan Soresby, he is not going to play for Texas Tech this year.
00:05That did not finish off well.
00:07He said that they are mutually parting ways, Leroy.
00:15Just like they thought they could win the case,
00:19they're looking at where it is,
00:21and they're determining the best thing we could do is move on for this reason.
00:27And I'll use another example in the NFL, Deshaun Watson.
00:33If you need a quarterback, and there's a great one available,
00:38do you have a quarterback if he has to sit half the season?
00:41What's the point?
00:43So as good as he could be.
00:46So you're saying like if he had to keep fighting it?
00:48No.
00:48If he was suspended for two games.
00:49No, not – but who's to say that suspension is not going to change, right?
00:54And even with that, like if you're spending top dollar for a player in any sport
01:02because you need him, you need that position,
01:06and he has to sit any time out, what's the point?
01:11You could have a quarterback that's not as good,
01:13but because he's playing every week, you're better off.
01:18That's what plagued the Browns.
01:20What plagued the Browns is not deciding Deshaun Watson.
01:23The problem was he missed the first 10 weeks of the first season,
01:26and you got rid of your other quarterback.
01:28So you didn't have a quarterback.
01:31It's not worth it.
01:32So with all the stuff going on, with how it looks,
01:38with the fact he's going to be suspended,
01:42maybe they came to the conclusion that like, yeah,
01:46are we going to really have a good season with this hanging over our heads
01:49or with him not knowing when he's going to play
01:51or all the things that go with the situation that he's in?
01:56Let's just move on.
01:58I'm curious to see if anybody takes a chance on him.
02:01I heard this morning on Joe say he's really got some talent.
02:06Oh, yeah.
02:07I mean, the Canes were looking after him.
02:08He was one of the guys before Mensa.
02:10He was massive dodging of a bullet for the Canes.
02:13Right.
02:14But the guy was definitely well sought after.
02:17Right.
02:18So I just think that it's interesting because usually once we hear the case is done,
02:23then you're just kind of moving on.
02:24But I do think it's interesting, the Scarlet Letter thing with the gambling.
02:29I think that that's one of those things where you really,
02:32can you really say that you're all the way back with it?
02:35Right.
02:35You know what I mean?
02:36I guess that's where everybody's wondering.
02:38It's like, well, if you really have a problem with something like this,
02:43how can you be sure that this is going to be okay by the time you get to it?
02:50Or could you truly trust that he's not going to get caught up in it again?
02:56You know, that's kind of the issue with it, right?
02:59Like, it's one of these things where people are worried about that as well.
03:04I just, it becomes too much of a headache.
03:10Right.
03:10And I think that's the problem here.
03:13Now, I will say this.
03:17We all know in sports, right, that talent is king, right?
03:29Like, you'll take risk with talent that you wouldn't take, you know,
03:36you take more risk with talent than you would with any other type of thing.
03:40He's very talented.
03:42I'm curious to see, and I would say this.
03:47Dolphins.
03:51Throw a fourth, fifth rounder in there.
03:54Yeah.
03:55And take a flyer on him because that's where you are.
03:58That's where you are.
03:59And, like, I wouldn't have a problem with it.
04:02Oh, I definitely wouldn't have a problem with it.
04:03I think there's going to be a lot.
04:05I think fourth or fifth round, you could say, even if he's a knucklehead,
04:11we didn't lose nothing.
04:12When you start getting in the third and second round,
04:15being in a position that the Dolphins are in, it becomes like, well,
04:20at some point he's going to have to contribute in a way,
04:23and we don't know if he's got rid of his demons yet.
04:27Right?
04:29Listen, it's a sickness.
04:31Some people recover from it.
04:33Some people don't.
04:36So what is your risk?
04:38Evan11 says, why would the Dolphins take a flyer on a dude
04:41with a gambling addiction?
04:42Again, I started the conversation off by saying talent is king.
04:51We have taken what – I'll give you a perfect example.
04:55You and me have this argument every day.
04:58John Morant.
04:59Oh, man.
05:00We have the argument every day, and what do I say to you?
05:03And you say, for the cheap skis.
05:05Yeah, that would be fun.
05:06But is that not the same conversation?
05:10I mean, John Morant's, you know, proven at the highest level.
05:14Okay.
05:15You don't quite know.
05:15But the talent in Swordsby is – nobody's denying the talent.
05:19Yeah, nobody's denying the talent.
05:20Nobody's denying the talent.
05:22But what's more of a risk?
05:26The heat with John Morant or the Dolphins with Swordsby?
05:32Because I would say a fifth-rounder in taking a flyer is no risk.
05:38Right.
05:38I think the thing is – I guess the question is going to be, you know,
05:42with a league worried about, like, character issues with that.
05:46Like, what is the – but if you told me John X. Sullivan was going to do it
05:49and it – I guess fourth the line is third, like, the most you would go on it.
05:53Because the way the supplemental draft works is whatever you give up, you lose, right?
05:56That's the way it works?
05:57Yes.
05:58So you don't get that pick next year.
06:01And it's a blind – it's like a – what is it called?
06:04Like a blind draw?
06:05No, when they do the – at the charity events.
06:11Silent auction.
06:12They do a silent auction.
06:13So you don't know what – you put in a bid.
06:16Let's say the Cardinals also bid a third and you bid a third.
06:20If their pick's higher, then –
06:21Then they get them.
06:22Right.
06:22Correct.
06:24Interesting.
06:25So whoever has – and I'm trying to think of how it goes.
06:30I think it goes from previous year.
06:33Oh, yeah.
06:33I would think it would be whatever the draft was, right?
06:35Right.
06:35That would seem to make sense.
06:36So, yeah.
06:38That's –
06:40Interesting.
06:43Very interesting.
06:44Very interesting.
06:44Very interesting.
