00:00was in on this topic brendan soresby so now he's going to try to get into the nfl after all
00:08the supplemental draft my favorite thing about the supplemental draft is supplemental draft trivia
00:14you've been you've been you've been digging in i supplemental draft the kosar thing is wild
00:20what happened and i as i said to you earlier today man if this happened in the present we
00:27would just never stop analyzing it i think that's probably right the bills made the way it's always
00:33seemingly written is like quietly made a trade with the browns in 1985 so the browns would have
00:41the bills supplemental pick i'm not sure if even technically the bills didn't make the pick
00:46themselves and then trade it to cleveland i don't know which happened first but the browns wanted
00:52bernie kosar who wanted them and he was not eligible for the real draft in those days because
01:01he hadn't completed school but he's like i will i'll actually finish as a sophomore after two years
01:09at miami he's like i'll do that i'll complete you know get all my credits and then enter the nfl
01:16i'll
01:16be allowed to do that but for a while it wasn't known whether he had the miami hurricanes reported
01:24to the league that he had but he didn't sign anything and so minnesota what it's wild right
01:31it's already crazy i'm loving the idea of nfl teams waiting and like there's some typing professor
01:39at the university of miami has not turned in a grade yet for bernie kosar so we don't know if
01:44he
01:44has all the credits he needs you right like what are we waiting on here right that might have been
01:50the case right i love that so he wants to go pro and he wants to go to cleveland he's
01:55from there he
01:56said it minnesota didn't care that much about that they trade up with houston in the 85 draft
02:05the bills have the first pick they're taking bruce smith and they have kelly although he's not here yet
02:10so they didn't have any interest in kosar didn't need kosar minnesota trades up to like three
02:16so that they can pick him but they don't know for sure whether he's going to be in the draft
02:21and
02:21eventually he's not and so there's a lawsuit houston wants the pick back
02:28so houston sues the league and rosell p rosell the commissioner of the league then
02:34and they want the draft stopped they want the draft to not happen because of this confusion
02:40forever and ever or just for this i don't know when it will abolish for 1985 okay so quietly the
02:47bills make this deal with the browns and the bills get their first their third a sixth and chip banks
02:55linebacker chip banks who was an all pro and the browns get the rights to that supplemental pick
03:01which had the bills not traded it they would have been the first overall pick the next year
03:06but they did so one thing that happened was what i read nobody could find chip banks
03:15to tell him about this trade i mean it was like the spring anyway right nobody could find him
03:21so the bills on a fishing trip maybe just like i'm not taking i'm not answering my phone i don't
03:28want
03:28to be traded right who i don't know so i thought you were traveling everywhere with a phone like
03:32that that right not being like well the number we have they say he's not there they don't know
03:38where he is nobody knows where he is okay so they can't the bills don't get chip banks instead they
03:43get cleveland's number one the next year instead which seems a lot better the i would sure i mean
03:49they might have liked the idea of chip banks helping them right away but still a first round pick
03:53from the cleveland browns usually is pretty good usually and it was like middle of the pack
03:59and it was ronnie harman i think the bills used that pick on uh cleveland right sort of ironic yeah
04:05right so the the browns do pick kosar in the supplemental draft and the bills get that haul
04:12but they um end up relinquishing the 101 in 86 i think it would have been the 101 or 102
04:21tampa was
04:22that was bo jackson anyway this is not about brendan soresby no it's not about brendan soresby i
04:28think the most interesting facet of the brendan soresby it's a saga now there there have been
04:34more than one lawsuit uh he was not going to be able to play college football and he was going
04:39to
04:39be allowed to play college football and then everybody else complained about that so now he's
04:43probably not going to be able to play college football so now he's back to this square on the
04:47board which is i'm going to try the supplemental draft um i mean he's already carrying the stigma
04:55of having had a you know obviously a big enough problem with gambling that it cost him
05:01some portion of his college career i don't know how hard and fast the rules are and i i know
05:09lots of
05:09people will be waiting to tell us how duplicitous it is but i'm assuming the league the nfl i'm talking
05:15about will this guy's already got strikes on him i think i would think as far as gambling goes so
05:24i don't mean some you're gonna you're gonna have to swallow hard and trust this kid if you're gonna
05:29invest in him because he might be one one mishap away from being gone forever because of what happened
05:36already in college with him and so that i mean i know teams are generally pretty risk averse you know
05:46to some extent it depends on how talented you are i don't know that this guy is so talented that
05:51somebody's gonna go all right yeah i'm not gonna worry about that especially with a supplemental pick
05:56like what you know you're you're you're you basically be just all right i'm gonna do this
06:01in lieu of doing something that might be a better idea eight months or nine months from now
06:07and i yeah i don't know that that is a that feels like a very small head of a needle
06:11that i'm trying
06:12to thread there if i'm this kid so i don't know i think it's i think anything could happen somebody
06:18could fall in love with him and think he's as good as as ty simpson or better and i'm just
06:23gonna shoot
06:23my shot but the scarlet letter already with the gambling stuff i think is a it's a big enough
06:31deal that i don't know i i'm quarterback needy i don't know that i'm getting in line for this guy
06:35i might wait and avail myself wait and see who shows up from juco and has a great year next
06:40year
06:41and just wait until the regular draft well i saw in the bet online the requisite bet online email for
06:47anything that can be bet on in sports that the likeliest according to the betting markets the
06:53likeliest outcome is that he goes in the third round and as fair as everything you just said
07:01is i think if i have if i'm a team that does not have the answer already on my roster
07:07at that
07:07position i'm totally using my third round pick in the supplemental draft like imagine if you knew
07:14that next year in the third round you could get something close to the best quarterback in this
07:21draft you mean you of course you would not even have a chance to do that right that's right so
07:25i mean mistakes are made watson not the same issues but still like you're making a gamble
07:36on somebody that you know it could turn out badly and in a sense that's every draft pick
07:42you know like right even if there hasn't been something yet maybe they just can't play maybe
07:49they don't have the head for it or maybe they're about to buy a dumb thing but yeah but the
07:53fact that
07:53this guy's already got and i'm speaking from a position of not knowing exactly what the league
08:03would do with with if he shows up and gets caught doing anything on a gambling app again is he
08:09done
08:10like i i want to know that before i'm even using a third round supplemental pick on him um because
08:16i
08:16don't know the answer to that and it might it might not work that way maybe he's got a clean
08:20sheet now
08:20that he's at the nfl it's a new chapter we don't hold against you what you did you know when
08:26you
08:26were in college i don't know i don't know or maybe even we can't yeah right i don't know how
08:31that all
08:31comes together so there might not even be anything to the you know the deterrent of picking him because
08:38he's already got you know he's already got a book he's already got a record so to speak um so
08:44yeah i don't
08:45know but i i do remember i think when we first talked about him when this story first cropped up
08:50when he was trying to even i think when it was first floated that he might go to the supplemental
08:54draft
08:54um i think i saw doug farrar say like he's right was right or one of one of the guys
09:01that we you know
09:02we follow we all follow for football you know prospect rankings and stuff said uh right around
09:08the same level prospect as tysonson who was that rant you know rams took him what 13th or something
09:15yeah um so that i mean there could be great value there in the third round you know if that's
09:21a third
09:21round pick like you're saying um but you're just you're just gonna have to trust it i want to know
09:27more about i'm i'm eager to learn more about how this actually physically works this draft like did
09:34they just sort of have everybody on a call they don't they don't convene for this i would assume
09:38i don't believe so everybody's on the phone and they just sort of go in order and if there's you
09:45know we can say pass or just be silent or something and then you lose hopefully it's not 10 minutes
09:51per
09:51pick and if you're the jets i mean the jets i think are probably the team that would be the
10:00likeliest
10:00to make sense for this player because i mean geno smith but still like they're one of these teams
10:05that just does not have a clear answer and are just dying for one do you even wait until the
10:12third
10:12round just in case some arizona or somebody is going to beat you to him right maybe you just don't
10:18maybe you just i don't know i i think even some of these teams and their gms would have little
10:27to
10:27no experience most would have little to no experience about sort of like strategy when
10:32it comes to this so that could be fun in fantasy i know uh everybody is trying to figure out
10:39what to
10:40do with them because most of your rookie drafts are over and he's not in the league yet he might
10:44not even be on your site right and i think the only thing you can do is leave him for
10:49waivers once
10:50you get you know most leagues don't run waivers until close to the season and he's sort of he's just
10:55i'm he's in the pool at that point if he ends up being drafted in the supplemental draft i don't
11:01know what else you can do you're not going to do it the whole draft over probably not as fun
11:07as much
11:07fun as drafts can be not just for this one guy yeah no that seems a bit a bit much
11:11yeah mike giardi
11:13coming up in 20 minutes 803 05 50 for us mike show
