00:06Brandon London, the Blue Rush, Frankie Vitterini of Gangs are here.
00:09We want to invite you guys to the kickoff party of all kickoff parties.
00:14This is going to be one of the best parties of the year.
00:17Yep.
00:17It is next Thursday, September 10th.
00:20We got David Bailey, my favorite player in the NFL.
00:25Representing the Jets.
00:26Representing the Jets.
00:27We've got Javon Holland, the leader of the Giants secondary.
00:31We told you guys, this is going to be a New York Post-U Stadium collaborative kickoff party.
00:38And it's all going down at the Ainsworth Midtown.
00:41What time do doors open?
00:43Doors open at 5.30.
00:44Okay, so right after work, get your butts down there.
00:47And then the party starts at?
00:48At 6.
00:49And then the live podcast starts at?
00:516.30.
00:52There you go.
00:52You'll get a chance to meet David Bailey.
00:54You'll get a chance to meet Javon Holland.
00:56We'll have a full bar and kitchen.
00:58It'll be open all night.
00:59They're going to give access to fans, autographs, of the whole shebang.
01:03So make sure if you're in the New York City, tri-state area, make it a point to come out.
01:09It'll be fun.
01:10The Niners are playing the Rams in Australia.
01:11That's a good game, right?
01:13Absolutely.
01:13Two heavy favorites in the NFC.
01:15Come on out.
01:16It'll be a great time.
01:17So watch Niners, Rams after you guys hang out and watch a joint podcast by Gangs All Here and Blue
01:26Rush as we kick off the Jets and Giants season the right way, the U Stadium way, the New York
01:34Post sports way.
01:35And I will be giving a prediction for the Jets season.
01:39I've been taking some heat the last couple days about me saying, would you rather go 1-16, 6-11,
01:45whatever.
01:46I'm going to have my prediction that night.
01:49I'm going to give my prediction.
01:50And I'm going to ask David Bailey what he thinks about my prediction.
01:53All right.
01:54And I'm going to say to his face, this is what I think you guys are going to go.
01:56What do you think?
01:57All right.
01:57Just letting you know.
01:58Well, come for the full bar and kitchen and, of course, the joint podcast.
02:04Stay to see what David Bailey says to Frankie's face.
02:07Again, we're going to kick things off.
02:09You might yoke me off.
02:11You might throw me out of the place.
02:14Let him save that energy for that first game of the season.
02:17It all goes down Thursday, September 10th, of course, at the Ainsworth Midtown.
02:31The 2026 New York Jets 53-man roster has been set.
02:36And this is Gangs All Here.
02:38I'm Ryan.
02:39That's Frankie from U-Stadium.
02:40And we're going to rank the Jets' current roster.
02:43And we're going to break it down player by player.
02:46And Frankie and I are going to rank and discuss the players that we find that are elite, great, average,
02:51below average, and the backups.
02:54And it should be a fun episode.
02:55This is something new we're going to try out for Gangs All Here.
02:57We want to welcome you guys into, obviously, the fans and give your thoughts in the comments below on where
03:02you think some of these players should be ranked.
03:04If you disagree with Frankie and I's rankings, please let us know.
03:08But, Frankie, I'm excited for us to just break down this roster and give us more, like, chance to give
03:15our feelings and thoughts about where we see these players on this roster and how they kind of compare amongst
03:20the other in the NFL.
03:21Totally, man.
03:22I mean, I've been asked.
03:23We've been asked.
03:24We've spoken about what is, you know, how good is this Jets roster?
03:28Who are they?
03:29You know, what is this team?
03:31Where are they going to go this year?
03:32And I think going through it player by player and ranking them might even give us some better perspective.
03:39I was talking to people.
03:41Maybe the Jets have an average, maybe a below, you know, a bottom 10 roster.
03:45We don't really know unless you go through it.
03:47So that's the exercise we're going to do now.
03:48And it should be fun.
03:49Let's see.
03:50We're going to do every player?
03:51Yeah, we're going to do every 53 players, man.
03:54Oh, man.
03:54This is going to be a good one.
03:55I even updated it with Groupie and Meredith, who they traded for from the Raiders.
04:00If you've got Jets fans, you haven't noticed, the Jets did trade for a backup center in Jordan Meredith from
04:06the Raiders.
04:07And they also got Blake Groupie, who might be their new starting kicker, which Kazza talked about on last week's
04:13episode about how they didn't have their current kicker on the roster.
04:16It's an interesting way.
04:18We're going to rank them all right now.
04:20Are you a Groupie?
04:21I might have to be, honestly, if I want this team to win.
04:26But let's start with the quarterback spot, right?
04:28I feel like that's a good way to start.
04:29Right now, obviously, the Jets have two quarterbacks on this active roster.
04:35They did cut Bailey Zappi.
04:37They cut Brady Cook, who was our starting quarterback for a lot last year, Frankie.
04:42But let's start with the two quarterbacks.
04:44We've got Geno Smith and Cade Klubnick.
04:46Now, if we were to look at those two, let's start with Geno.
04:51Where are you going to put him in terms of elite, great, average, below average, or backup?
04:56I will put Geno at average.
05:02If you go down the list of quarterbacks in the NFL, Geno's going to fall between that 14, 15, 16,
05:1117, 18 range.
05:12So somewhere between 14 and 18, maybe even 20th.
05:16But to me, that's average.
05:18Geno Smith's proven that he can be a very good quarterback in this league.
05:23He's also proven he could be a pretty bad quarterback also in this league.
05:27So I think because of that, you've seen the upside.
05:30You've seen the multiple contracts.
05:32You've seen the 70% completion percentage season, 4,000 plus yards.
05:37He's average.
05:38I think I would agree there.
05:40I think Geno's a good way to start here, put him at the average tier.
05:44He had a really bad year last year.
05:47And obviously, he had the worst offensive line in football, you could argue.
05:51He didn't have really any weapons.
05:53Brock Bowers, who was often hurt last year, and Ashton Gentry, who was a rookie playing behind a bad offensive
06:00line,
06:00not really much receiving threats there for him on the perimeter.
06:04You would think he's having an upgrade here, and he would turn from that below average,
06:08where I would have put him last year, or even back up, to now you want him to be elevated
06:13into the average spot.
06:14So I agree there.
06:15I think I'm good with Geno being in the average.
06:18Let's talk about Cade Klubnick.
06:19Where do you think he should drop?
06:21Now, mind you, this is the first time we're doing the rankings.
06:24Next week, we can do rookie as a tier if we want to, which I probably would drop Cade Klubnick
06:28in there.
06:29But where are you going to put Cade on the tier here?
06:32I will put Cade, I think, back up is the right spot.
06:37Now, that's not to say that I think he's lower than below average, but this is almost at a TBD
06:43level.
06:43So when we say back up, we're like, we don't really know yet.
06:46We're not ready to label someone below average or average.
06:50Put him as a back up.
06:52I've seen things from Cade that I liked.
06:53I've seen some things, you know, there's things left to be desired with Klubnick.
06:58But back up, I think, fits for sure.
07:01And he is the back up.
07:01Yeah, I kind of agree there.
07:04And I don't think there's any more to be said about Cade Klubnick.
07:07He's the backup quarterback.
07:08The Jets chose not to get a veteran quarterback to bring in as the new backup.
07:13So they're going to let the rookie have the full chance to be the guy who goes in if Gino
07:18gets hurt.
07:19It's a scary proposition for Cade.
07:21But that's the way the Jets have chosen to go.
07:26And I don't know, man.
07:27Like, it's your job, man, Cade.
07:30If Gino goes down, you're going to be the guy.
07:32Yeah, I mean, I've heard some people say that, you know, if Gino goes down, you know, they'd want a
07:37veteran.
07:38I think that only works really in like the first month or two of the season, a month and a
07:42half.
07:42I mean, then you—
07:43It could happen, though.
07:43You know what I mean?
07:44Yeah.
07:45If it happens later, though, it's like where you're going to go depending upon what the record is.
07:49You never know, but I do like the thought, and Cade has experience, so it's not like you're bringing in
07:54someone that hasn't ran a premier offense in college at one of the best schools in college for a while.
08:02He did it for three and a half, four years, so like, yeah.
08:05Okay, let's go to the running back spot.
08:08Yep.
08:08We got Brees Hall, Braylon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Kene Iguanu, Andrew Beck.
08:15Let's start with our man Brees.
08:17I mean, this should be a no-doubter, Frankie.
08:20Brees should be in the elite category.
08:22Would you agree?
08:25No.
08:25Why?
08:26I would put him in great.
08:28I mean, he's elite on this roster.
08:32He might be elite on this roster.
08:34I just, again, comparing him to the league, I have Brees right outside—right, you know, around the top 10 running
08:42backs, 8, 9, 10, 11, somewhere there, 12.
08:46I, uh, for this roster, okay, fair enough.
08:49We could put him at elite.
08:51I do think there is things to be desired, though, with Brees, specifically between the tackles.
08:56Sure.
08:56And I do think the team, in general, has done him no favors when it comes to putting together scripts
09:04and game plans to get him the ball in space.
09:07I think Brees could be deadly.
09:07Especially in the past game, too.
09:08Definitely.
09:09So that's why I think there's a potential.
09:11And mind you, this is a week-by-week ranking.
09:13So he could drop down to great if he doesn't have a good weekend.
09:15We don't like the way he's playing.
09:17All right, let's talk about Braylon Allen, a guy who's coming back off a really tough year last year, missing
09:24most of the year with that knee injury after that Miami game on the kickoff return.
09:29He looks good, according to all the reports in training camp.
09:32He's back.
09:33This is a really prove-it year for Braylon to show that he has the talent that everyone thinks he
09:38has.
09:39Where are you going to put him on this roster?
09:40All right, so the thing with Braylon Allen is I am going to, just like I conceded to you, with
09:45Brees, putting Brees at elite, I happen to really like Braylon Allen from a talent perspective.
09:51I liked him out of Wisconsin.
09:52I think when he first came into the league, you would constantly see that first tackler not being able to
10:00bring him down.
10:01Flashes of a young James Conner.
10:04He hasn't been able to put it together.
10:06I want to rank him a little higher than he should be ranked because I look at the talent.
10:12If you want to call a spade a spade, he's probably below average.
10:16I would kind of agree with you, man.
10:17Because he's played enough, and I hate putting him there because I happen to like him, but we got to
10:24be realistic at times, and he hasn't put it together, and no one's forgetting about that fumble he had that
10:31maybe cost us that Miami game, right?
10:34Yeah, no.
10:35So it's, yeah.
10:36No, I completely agree.
10:37I would put him in the below average.
10:38He has to prove himself and show that he is worthy of that pick that he was taken at, and
10:45also the talent that everyone believes he has.
10:49He's got to prove himself, and he's going to have a real opportunity.
10:52I think he's going to get a good role in this offense, considering there's a lot of receiving threats in
10:58this backfield as well.
11:01He should be able to do both as a runner and a pass catcher for the Jets.
11:05But he's somebody that watch him as we do this throughout the year that propels himself from below average to
11:10average.
11:11Maybe, yeah.
11:11Potentially even higher, I think.
11:13I mean, I do like Braylon Allen.
11:15He's just, you have to put it together.
11:16If you don't put it together, we can prognosticate with talent and what we liked out of college, et cetera.
11:22It doesn't matter.
11:23Proof is in the pudding.
11:24Are you able to put it together?
11:26And he hasn't been able to thus far.
11:27And he hasn't been able to stay on the field also, right?
11:29That's another reason you just brought up.
11:30Let's talk about the other backup running back, Isaiah Davis.
11:32Where are we putting him?
11:33I put him at backup.
11:34Yeah.
11:36He hasn't played enough.
11:37He's shown flashes.
11:39But, again, he's in that Cade Club Nick, you know, backup, hasn't played enough.
11:45Let's see, you know, when you get some PT, what you look like.
11:49Yeah.
11:50And he's missed most of training camp, which is tough for him.
11:52You would hope that, you know, he can at least work himself as a third down running back.
11:58I think that's kind of like his role here.
12:00Because, again, he's really good out of the backfield and catching the ball.
12:04And he showed flashes his rookie year.
12:06But it was inconsistent last year.
12:09The Jets offense was just inconsistent the last couple years.
12:12So, look, Isaiah Davis, I think there's some talent there.
12:14It's not a bad backup running back to have for the Jets.
12:19Keeney Nguanu, who's going to be helping them out on special teams.
12:22Where do you put him?
12:25Um, if you want to label him as a special teams player also on this roster, I'd put him at
12:32average.
12:33I kind of agree.
12:34Yeah, I think he's been a great returner.
12:36He's playing running back.
12:38He makes plays when he plays.
12:39He's trying to figure his way out.
12:41But he's shown enough talent for him on this roster, considering his return ability.
12:46I'd put him at average.
12:48Okay.
12:48And then they did decide to keep Andrew Beck on this roster as the fullback.
12:54So, they are carrying five running backs on this roster, Frankie.
12:57Where would you put Andrew Beck on this tier list?
13:04Listen, I think at this point we've got to be a little realistic with Andrew Beck.
13:08I've seen him play.
13:10Can make some plays.
13:11We can put him at backup.
13:13But I think you want to put him probably below average.
13:16I think below average is fair.
13:17He's the last guy.
13:18He's one of the last players making the roster.
13:20And I haven't seen anything.
13:23But I'm not overly impressed based on what I have seen.
13:27But let's see.
13:28Yeah, we'll see.
13:30What's interesting is they did keep him and Jelani Woods on this roster.
13:33We'll get to the tight ends in a little bit.
13:34Let's talk about receiver.
13:35We got six receivers on this Jets 53-man roster.
13:38We got Garrett Wilson, Adonai Mitchell, Omar Cooper Jr., Isaiah Williams, Tim Patrick, and Arian Smith.
13:48Where do you rank Garrett Wilson?
13:50I feel like this should be one answer and one answer only.
13:54Backup?
13:55No, I'm kidding.
13:56Elite, man.
13:58If there was a tier above elite, I would put him on there.
14:01My boy Garrett's elite.
14:02Elite, he will stay elite, and let's just hope Frank Reich and his 2005 offense is going to do him
14:11all the favors in the world this year.
14:13It should be a no-brainer.
14:14Garrett Wilson's elite, and I completely agree with you.
14:17All right, let's go to A.D. Mitchell.
14:19Where are you putting Adonai in year – technically one full year as a Jets now because he was traded
14:25for midseason last year in that Sauce Gardner trade.
14:27Where are you putting A.D. Mitchell, his first full season with the New York Jets?
14:30All right, so you're talking about a guy that has the upside to creep into what I was saying to
14:36you last week, into that wide receiver one talent category.
14:41That's how talented he is.
14:43Hasn't put it together yet.
14:46I'm itching to put him in great, but he hasn't proven it yet because he hasn't played enough or he
14:52hasn't been on the field enough with his reps to be able to quantify greats or average.
14:58I think the talent says great, but the production is below average in terms of what he's done in the
15:06NFL thus far.
15:07So let's split the difference and agree on average here for A.D. Mitchell, but I think there is absolutely
15:13room to grow for A.D. Mitchell into that wide receiver two role, prove himself as a real threat,
15:18and prove why he was such a highly touted wide receiver coming out of college.
15:22The talent is real. He just has to be able to stay on the field and be consistent for the
15:27Jets this year.
15:28So I'll keep him in the average category.
15:30Let's talk about rookie Omar Cooper Jr.
15:33He kind of got a lot of flack this training camp, Frankie, for his first year where there's panic amongst
15:42the fancy footballers.
15:44There's panic amongst Jets fans.
15:45Where's Omar Cooper Jr.? He's not making enough plays.
15:48All we're hearing about is Garrett Wilson, A.D. Mitchell, the running backs, the tight ends, but we're not hearing
15:53Omar's name enough.
15:55Where are you putting Omar Cooper Jr.?
15:57Listen, man, Omar Cooper Jr. is a receiver who's going to take some time.
16:01He had really big games at Indiana when he was featured.
16:04He had games where he really disappeared.
16:06So, I mean, it was all about that game plan and that script for him in college in terms of
16:11what his production could be or was.
16:14Same thing in the NFL.
16:15I think you're going to have games and moments where he pops and other games where he might disappear.
16:20But we don't know yet.
16:21He hasn't played enough.
16:23Rookie, put him at a backup.
16:26I don't think we can.
16:27Backup?
16:27Yeah, it's not to say he's below, below average, but it's a TBD.
16:31And he's a backup.
16:33He literally is.
16:33Can I make an argument for him in average?
16:35I mean, how?
16:37Go ahead, but try.
16:38I mean, go ahead.
16:39I mean, we don't know anything about him yet.
16:40Like, he hasn't played enough.
16:41You know what?
16:42All right, I'll keep him in the backup.
16:43We should have made a rookie tier.
16:44We'll make one next week for him.
16:45That's fine.
16:46I feel like he's right in that rookie thing where it's like you can't really grade him yet.
16:49But I'll put him in the back.
16:50But listen, to me, he's going to be in the three wide receiver sets to start the year.
16:53Listen, I loved the trade up.
16:55We traded up with the Niners, who actually got Stribbling, who looks pretty good, by the way.
17:00But traded up, got Omar Cooper Jr.
17:03Loved that because I wanted Makai Lemon at 16.
17:08When we didn't take Lemon and we took Sadiq, we ended up figuring out our wide receiver two situation or
17:14two and a half, I call it, with Omar Cooper Jr.
17:18But when Isaiah Williams is taking your spot, there's a little bit of cause for concern.
17:25No red flags, though, or, you know, you don't have to sound the alarms.
17:30But, yeah, I'd put him at backup.
17:31It's a TBD.
17:32Okay, let's talk about Isaiah Williams, who does make the Jets roster, had a really impressive training camp.
17:37He's a big special teams weapon for them.
17:40But he's going to get reps in the starting wide receiver unit as well just because of what he did
17:44for them during training camp.
17:46Where are you putting Isaiah Williams?
17:47I'd put him at average.
17:49Okay.
17:49As a returner, if you want to talk about as a wide receiver three, strictly I'm putting him below average.
17:56I just, again, I know he's flashed here in camp a bit, but you're comparing, again, we're comparing it in
18:03terms of where the Jets are at,
18:04but we're also comparing it to other rosters.
18:06It's all subjective, you know, to who you're playing and what the other teams are bringing out as a wide
18:13receiver three
18:14and what is a wide receiver three in today's NFL.
18:17But great returner.
18:19Team MVP last year.
18:21That's average to me.
18:23I think I put the wrong player in for Isaiah Williams.
18:27It's tough when you're seeing these smaller guys.
18:30Let me drop him by the end here.
18:31All right.
18:32So we had Isaiah Williams in the average category.
18:36Yeah, average.
18:36As an overall player value on this team, returning matters.
18:40And we have one of the best special teams in football because of him,
18:44and he helped us win probably a few games last year.
18:46You could argue if he has another great year as a returner, he could put him above average as a
18:50player.
18:51You can, considering the roster.
18:53I mean, great.
18:53Like, you could put him as a great just because of what he does in the return game.
18:57If he's strong again in the return game and the Jets special teams is great again this year,
19:00I would argue you could probably see him in that great category.
19:04They do keep the veteran Tim Patrick on the active roster.
19:07Surprise there a little bit.
19:10Where are you going to put him?
19:12Below average.
19:13Yeah, kind of.
19:13He's been struggling to move in general, and that's because of injuries.
19:19So, I mean, when you're a big guy like him, 6'5", and you struggle to move,
19:26you need everything you can get, and it's tough.
19:29It's tough for him to get going.
19:31And injuries have derailed him a bit.
19:34But, yeah, I put him at below average.
19:36Trying to find Tim Patrick here on my tier maker.
19:39And then also, Arian Smith.
19:41Tell me where you're going to put him as well.
19:43You have to put him also in the same category.
19:45Below average?
19:46Yeah, I mean, he's almost fortunate to have made the roster.
19:49So, I mean, as much as I want Arian Smith to do well, and I love that speed,
19:54and he had over 800 yards at Georgia in one of the toughest conferences in football.
19:58So, I mean, in his last season, there's things to like.
20:02John Gruden raved about Arian Smith.
20:06But you're not making enough plays.
20:09Your hands issue are monumental in terms of – or not monumental, the opposite.
20:17I mean, he's got to fix that problem.
20:18It's his number one issue in the NFL is his hands.
20:22People say he can't catch, and he hasn't proven that he can.
20:24So, yeah.
20:27All right, Arian Smith in the backup – in the below average category.
20:30I think I can buy into that.
20:32Let's talk about the tight ends, Frankie.
20:34Four tight ends make this roster.
20:35You got Mason Taylor, who's entering his second year.
20:38Kenyon Sadiq, the rookie, who missed all of training camp with an injury.
20:42Jeremy Ruckert, who signed an extension in the offseason.
20:44And Jelani Woods, the newcomer.
20:46Welcome to the club.
20:47Four tight ends.
20:48Let's start with Mason Taylor.
20:49Where do you put him?
20:52Listen, man, I'll be honest.
20:54He's looked pretty damn good, and he's had such a great offseason.
20:59When we went to camp, he was flashing.
21:01He flashes every day.
21:03Can't believe I'm doing this, but got to put him in the grate.
21:06Whoa, really?
21:07Yes.
21:08He's looked every bit the part.
21:10He's made every play.
21:11I can't buy into the grate.
21:13Can I sell you average?
21:14Sell me average.
21:15I'm the one that thought you would be wanting to put him in grate,
21:19and I'd want him to put him in the average.
21:20He hasn't proven anything yet.
21:21Look, has he ascended in training camp?
21:23Absolutely.
21:24He's seen his scent.
21:25But I think for Mason Taylor, you have to keep him in the average.
21:27If I'm keeping Adonai Mitchell and I'm keeping these other players
21:30in the average category, I think he has the potential to fit that great category.
21:34But he's got to put together.
21:36He's got to be a threat in the red zone.
21:37He's got to be good between the 20s.
21:40Not just, hey, I'm dumping a ball off to him,
21:43and he's going to get a 10-yard catch.
21:45I think he has special ability to find space,
21:47like we've talked about, in zone coverage and versus man.
21:50He has a big body, and I think he's shown he can make some really cool,
21:54like really big plays for them.
21:56I just don't know if he's going to get as many targets as we had hoped for.
21:59Maybe he does.
22:00I think he's a starter right now in terms of type,
22:02because just because Kenyon Sadiq doesn't have a training camp,
22:04I'm going to put him in average.
22:06Yeah, yeah.
22:06I think it's safer to put him in average with fully,
22:10I believe he's going to be a great player
22:12if he reaches that ascension that we hope for.
22:15I'm jumping the gun a bit.
22:16I'm looking into, I'm predicting how this season's going to go for him,
22:21and everything I've seen thus far out of camp,
22:26and what I'm reading about him,
22:27and how he's able to find those soft spots and zones, right?
22:30He's been different, honestly, at camp.
22:33You speak to anyone that goes to camp daily,
22:35they say the number one player that's popped is Mason Taylor on offense.
22:40So, yeah.
22:42Put him at average, fair enough.
22:43That might change quickly,
22:44but I like to give guys a little bit more of the benefit of the doubt
22:48when you're talking about young players.
22:49But, again, you are correct that you have to see it.
22:51Kenyon Sadiq, I think you have to put him in the backup category right now.
22:55Yeah, you do.
22:55Yeah, you don't know anything.
22:57He's not, you can't rank him.
23:00We haven't seen him at all in training camp.
23:02I think he has the potential, again, to be great or even elite in this league.
23:06Like, that's how special the talent of Kenyon Sadiq is.
23:09But this is a really rough year for him, rough start to his career.
23:14The fact that you had a setback in your hernia surgery that you got in the offseason,
23:17and you missed all of training camp as a rookie with a brand new,
23:20with an offense that you're trying to learn and welcome yourself in,
23:23and they're trying to keep him versatile in how they want to use him.
23:25They want to use him out of the backfield.
23:27They want to use him as a blocker.
23:28They want to use him inline blocking.
23:29They want to split him out as a wide receiver.
23:31He can do all of those things.
23:33There's no doubt in my mind.
23:34I think he's even a grade above Mason Taylor in terms of talent.
23:38Yeah.
23:39But he's got to be on the field, Frankie.
23:41And it's going to be tough for you at the start of the year to just be like,
23:44we're going to throw you into this offense,
23:46and you're going to be a big contributor early on.
23:50I just don't think that's going to happen.
23:51He's got to be a backup right now in this point in where he is.
23:53And I think he's even below probably Jeremy Rucker and Jelani Woods on the depth chart
23:57of just, like, getting reps.
23:59Because I think there's roles for those other two players that we're going to talk about here in a bit.
24:03You can go with him as a backup?
24:04Yeah, a backup.
24:04Yeah.
24:05Yeah.
24:05He's another TBD guy.
24:07It's unfortunate because with this hernia injury, you don't know what the timeline really is.
24:13And the last thing you want to see is him go out there and re-aggravate it.
24:16So, I'd actually shy away from playing him so early.
24:20I think it's more important that he just gets right at some point this season and he can play a
24:25healthy 8 to 10 games
24:27versus trying to rush him back for week one and him never feeling healthy throughout the year.
24:33So, yeah.
24:34Let's go Rucker quick on him.
24:35I think it's backup.
24:36I'd put below average.
24:39Yeah.
24:39All right.
24:40I think he's played enough.
24:41Below average.
24:41Listen, that's no slight on him.
24:44But, like...
24:45He's a blocking title.
24:45Yeah, exactly.
24:46That's what he's here for.
24:47Jelani Woods, we could put backup.
24:48Yes, but I think Jelani has the potential.
24:52We have to see it, though.
24:53Just because the red zone threat and the blocking ability and how big he is, I think he can legitimately
24:57be, like, an average player for them.
25:00I think for now we put him at backup, right?
25:02Okay.
25:02And then I think we reserve that same way we put Mason Taylor at average and may want to put
25:07him to great.
25:08I think we've got to do the same thing with Jelani.
25:10We'll have a quick plug on moving them up, I think, though.
25:16Okay, so Frankie said Jelani is a backup.
25:20We'll keep him there.
25:21Let's move over to the offensive line.
25:23Let's go with the starters.
25:25I think we can start with the tackles.
25:27Let's do Olu and Armand Membu.
25:29I think we could start with Olu.
25:31Where are you going to put Olu, Fashio?
25:33Listen, I will stand on this.
25:35Olu has a ton of potential.
25:38Loved him at a Penn State.
25:41And I think his technique is very good.
25:44It's been a little bit hit or miss, this camp, for some reason.
25:48I don't know if he's trying out some new things there.
25:50I put Olu at great.
25:53Whoa, I'm surprised you're going to say that.
25:55I put him at great.
25:56When you consider this, I will go back to this.
25:59We can look at every number.
26:00We can look at anything or hear anything from what people say.
26:04What I know is this.
26:06From my perspective, I've never watched a Jets game, or maybe one time I've watched a game in the last
26:12two years or three years of Olu and thought that he was the reason we lost.
26:19I don't remember a game where I was like, Olu got beat like a drum today.
26:24I can't believe, you know, that he's still even playing.
26:27Like, I've had those opinions about left tackles here.
26:30I've never really had that opinion about Olu.
26:33So, we have to understand that.
26:35Yeah, three years of Olu.
26:36So, I mean, it's, you know, yeah, right.
26:40It's two years, excuse me.
26:42Okay, so you got Olu in great.
26:44I'm not going to argue with there.
26:45I think he's great.
26:47Third year is a big one for him, though.
26:49I probably would have put him in average, but I'm fine with putting him in great.
26:51Armand Membu, I think we all agree.
26:53Yeah, you can put him right there.
26:55Not even a question.
26:56Armand is elite.
26:58All right, let's talk about the guards in center.
26:59We got Josh Myers at center, and we got Dylan Parham and Joe Tippman.
27:06Tippman, I think you can confidently put him now at great.
27:10Whoa!
27:10I think with the contract.
27:12Yeah, as a guard.
27:13I think he's a great guard, man.
27:14As a right guard, especially.
27:16I kind of think he's average.
27:17He's average, I think, overall as an offensive lineman.
27:19I think we put him in average.
27:21Put him in average.
27:21I think we got to put him in average.
27:23Yeah, that's fair.
27:24Parham, I think you got to put him below average.
27:27Yes.
27:27I think he's going to struggle, and I think the penalties is a real thing with him, and
27:35I wonder if they're going to be kicking themselves for not making a bigger signing of free agency
27:41or going harder after a better offensive lineman.
27:45You've seen the kind of like the undisciplined nature of Dylan Parham a little bit.
27:50I like the nastiness.
27:51Don't get me wrong.
27:52I think he can bring that nasty.
27:53When you're talking about as a left guard, though, like playing left guard is a very difficult
27:58position.
27:58The NFL, if you compare him to the other left guards, he's going to be in that bottom six
28:03or seven list, which doesn't mean he's a bad guard.
28:06If he played right guard, he might be propelled even a little higher.
28:09You know, guys can be average right guards and then below average left guards, because
28:15left guard's a tougher position than right guard.
28:17So I think that's why with Tippmann, I would have shied more to great as a right guard,
28:21but I think overall as a guard, he is average.
28:25So we'll do the same thing with Dylan Parham.
28:27We'll put him at average.
28:28Okay, so you want to put him in average.
28:29No, excuse me.
28:30We'll put him below average.
28:31If Tippmann's average, Dylan Parham is 100% below average.
28:35And then Josh Myers, where are you putting him below average?
28:39I kind of agree, man.
28:40Yeah, I think that's that's a little bit of the Jets, you know, quote unquote weakness
28:46on offense, the interior of the offensive line.
28:48Yeah, they got it.
28:49They can't get bullied and pushed around, man.
28:51Yeah, they got to move bodies in the run game specifically.
28:54All right.
28:54They also brought in Jordan Meredith.
28:59Like I said, he's gonna be the backup center now.
29:01They also have Chu Cuomo, Chu Cuomo, Okorafor, and we'll call him Chu Cu, and Max Mitchell.
29:10I think you put them all back up, right?
29:11Yeah, you can.
29:12Yeah.
29:12I mean, Meredith, you can, Meredith you could play around with.
29:15You could put him below average.
29:17Below average.
29:17Because he's played.
29:18Kind of put him in, like, he might, wouldn't be shocked if Meredith gets a couple of shots.
29:22Meredith played really well at guard when he played and was really bad at center when
29:27the Raiders put him there, so I don't know what the plan is there, but I like, he has
29:32the same kind of flexibility to play on the interior like Titman or even Myers does.
29:38They both played a little bit of everything on the interior side, so I think Meredith fits
29:43that role.
29:44So, I mean, he's a below average offensive lineman on this roster, and then I think the
29:47other two, you got to put him at backup because it's another TBD.
29:52Max Mitchell, you could put probably at below average, by the way, but yeah.
29:55I put Max Mitchell at backup.
29:57That's fine.
29:58Yeah?
29:59He's below average.
30:00Below average?
30:00Yeah, he's below average.
30:01Yeah, man, he's below average.
30:04A core of four, you could put at backup because he's actually shown some flashes of being good,
30:09but he hasn't played here enough.
30:12I want to see these guys play here.
30:13Max Mitchell, we've seen play here.
30:15He's whatever.
30:16He's below average when he's out there.
30:18I'm trying to find a core of four.
30:20Let's talk about the defensive line while I try to find a core of four on the rankings
30:23here.
30:24Yeah.
30:24So, on the defensive line, we have Harrison Phillips, David Onyemata, Jawan Briggs, Tavondre
30:32Sweat, and Daryl Jackson Jr.
30:34Can you talk to me about Harrison Phillips and Onyemata?
30:37Where do you think those two guys rank on this roster while I try to catch up with a core
30:41of four?
30:43Harrison Phillips is a tough one.
30:45I wish there was a tier between average and great, but I'd put him at average.
30:51I think I want to put him at great, but again, you've got to make plays to be great.
30:58He's great against the run.
30:59You've got to make game-changing plays.
31:00Yeah, but they struggled against the run last year, and they've brought in a couple different
31:06pieces on that defensive front to kind of address that.
31:09I think he's average.
31:10When Harrison Phillips is out there, he's an average defensive tackle in the NFL.
31:14Okay, and then talk to me about Onyemata.
31:18Listen, man, you know what?
31:19This sounds crazy.
31:20I would probably unrank Onyemata.
31:24Below average.
31:25Yeah, put him at below average.
31:27He's a below average player.
31:27He hasn't really...
31:29Kaz was mentioning about him struggling here.
31:32I looked at PFF grades for the preseason.
31:35He was the lowest-ranked player for a game or two, and I think he's the lowest-ranked defensive
31:40guy on the roster.
31:41So, yeah, put him at below average.
31:43Okay, so Onyemata, you put it below average.
31:45Let's talk about Tavondre Sweat, the new addition.
31:48I think average.
31:49Yeah, I mean, I think he has potential to be great.
31:51Yeah, he's in the 80 Mitchell category.
31:55He's the 80 Mitchell of the defense because he has the talent to be great, but his production
32:02thus far in the NFL has been below average, so I think it's fair.
32:05Put him at average because he can propel one way or the other.
32:07And then talk to me about Jawan Briggs.
32:11Jawan Briggs, another one, similar to Harrison Phillips.
32:14I would love to flirt with DeGray because he did play great at times last year.
32:19We have to see a little bit more, so I'd put him at average.
32:21I think him and Harrison Phillips sitting at average makes sense.
32:24Okay, so I got Jawan Briggs at average with Tavondre Sweat.
32:30That takes care of the defensive line.
32:32Oh, no, no, no.
32:32Hang on.
32:33We got one more.
32:33Rookie Daryl Jackson Jr.
32:37He's played pretty damn good.
32:38I mean, I would put him in the – if you're going to put all those guys at average, this
32:41guy's actually played pretty damn well at training camp, and he's shown he's got to – he earned
32:46the role to be part of the rotation of this defensive line.
32:49Yeah, I think we put him for this – for the sake of this at backup.
32:52Okay.
32:52Just because we've been doing that with –
32:54Makes sense.
32:55We'll make our rookie tier next week.
32:57Yeah, there you go.
32:57Yeah, yeah.
32:58Daryl Jackson Jr. is going into the backup.
33:00He is, and he is a backup.
33:01All these guys we're saying are backups are actually backups.
33:03All right, let's talk about the edge.
33:05We got five players here for the edge.
33:07My favorite group of the bunch.
33:08Yes, we got David Bailey, Joseph Asai, Kingsley Nimbari, Will McDonald, and Braden McGregor.
33:15Let's start with the two starters, you would think, in David Bailey and Joseph Asai.
33:19Dude, you know where I want to put David Bailey.
33:21Are we kidding me?
33:21You can't put him in the elite yet, right?
33:23No, you can't now, no.
33:24But great – I feel comfortable putting him in the great.
33:26Put him in the great, man.
33:27I mean, he's done everything you've asked him to do.
33:29He's flashed.
33:31People at camp said he's the most impactful player on that defense,
33:34and he's been the most impressive player out of anyone there at camp.
33:38He's a number two overall pick.
33:41I'd put him at great.
33:42Okay, and then Joseph Asai, I kind of want to put him in great two.
33:47No, I wouldn't go that far.
33:48No?
33:49No, I'd put him at average.
33:50I don't think – Joseph Asai, I don't think –
33:52I think they paid him a lot of money.
33:54They paid him a good amount of money.
33:56I mean, listen, he's a solid all-around edge when he's healthy.
34:00But, again, he comes from a defense in Cincinnati that was as Swiss as Swiss cheese comes,
34:08and I just – I can't put him at great yet.
34:11He's not a game-changing edge.
34:14So you're putting him at average?
34:14Yeah, I'd put him at average.
34:16He's an average player in this league.
34:19Okay, let's talk about the two guys that are going to rotate in with him,
34:22Kingsley Anibari and Will McDonald.
34:25Kingsley Anibari is interesting because – excuse me – he's had moments in his career
34:30where he's played really, really well, and he's been a super impactful player.
34:34He's also had moments where, you know, fans have wanted him gone.
34:39What?
34:40It's his first offseason.
34:42No, Packers fans.
34:43I'm like, what are you talking about?
34:44No, no, no, no, sorry.
34:45No, no, no, no.
34:46Packers fans, I remember reading some stuff.
34:49I'd put him probably below average.
34:51What?
34:52Yeah, dude, who's – come on, man.
34:54Kingsley Anibari, I mean, I'm looking at his numbers.
34:57I just pulled him up here, right?
34:5917 tackles last year, two sacks, the year before, 18 tackles.
35:03I think he has the ability to go from average to really solid player.
35:06I think you might be surprised how good he might be.
35:09I mean, if you want to put him at average, it's fine.
35:11No, no, no, it's fine.
35:12We'll keep him below average.
35:13Will McDonald, where are you putting him?
35:16Oh, man, this is another one.
35:19Listen, I want to put him great.
35:21I really do.
35:23You don't have four sacks in a game on accident.
35:25Put him at average.
35:26Yeah, I kind of don't – I don't – I hear you.
35:29As you see, I might like this roster more than you do, funny enough.
35:32So I get ripped on online people saying how I'm all into tanking and I hate the Jets
35:38and I want them to lose.
35:39Like, I'm actually higher – the thing I'm not high on is the quarterback and head coach.
35:43So that – not to get into that conversation.
35:45But I think you've got to keep him in average just because he's been solid for them
35:52in terms of sack production.
35:53No, average – no, no.
35:53He's terrible against the run, though.
35:54That's the problem.
35:55No, average, yeah.
35:56Yeah, great pass rusher, below average run defender or lower than a backup run defender.
36:03We'll keep him at average.
36:05But, again, the flashes from Will McDonald have shown one, two.
36:10Has he played on a defense that has had the lead that other teams are forced to throw the ball?
36:17No.
36:17No.
36:18So, trust me, if Will McDonald played on the Chiefs or the Eagles or the Chargers or the Bills,
36:26he'd have 13 sacks.
36:28All right.
36:29Braden McGregor, I think we can all agree, is just backup at this point, right?
36:32Are you kidding me?
36:33Yeah.
36:34Dude.
36:34Below average?
36:35Do you see that great tier?
36:36There's a little spot right there.
36:37Yeah.
36:38Just – I'm kidding.
36:40I actually – listen, when I went –
36:42He's a backup player.
36:43That's who he is.
36:43Yeah, he's a backup, yeah.
36:44You could probably put him below average.
36:45He hasn't played enough, though.
36:46All right, let's talk about the linebacker group.
36:48They got five players here as well.
36:50They have Demario Davis, Jamie and Sherwood, Kiku Maui Noah, and Marcellino.
36:55No, sorry.
36:56They have Marcellino, McCrary, Ball, and they picked up Trayvon Wallace.
37:01Trayvon Wallace?
37:01I don't know how you say his name.
37:03Let's start with the starters.
37:05Sherwood and Davis, where are you putting these guys?
37:10I'm putting – you know what?
37:12Let's make this a little fun.
37:14Let's be positive, Jeff fans.
37:15You want to be positive, Jeff fans?
37:17We're going to put our positive hats on everybody.
37:21Demario Davis is elite.
37:23Guy never misses games.
37:25Guy runs the defense.
37:26You want to talk about linebackers in the NFL, he's right up there.
37:30I kind of agree.
37:30He ages like fine wine.
37:32He's elite.
37:33And put Jamie and Sherwood at great because Jamie and Sherwood has had over 150 tackles last year.
37:41Don't blame him because Steve Wilks didn't know what the hell he was doing last year,
37:44and maybe the head coach doesn't know what he's doing on defense either.
37:47Wink, wink.
37:47But maybe I'm being hard on him, yeah.
37:49Jamie and Sherwood, 154 tackles last year, 158 the year before.
37:53The year before that in 2024, he almost had 100 solo tackles, literally.
37:59Guy, listen, he had a bad year last year, but the whole defense did.
38:03He's a great middle linebacker, and he's a fifth-round pick, homegrown.
38:07Let's keep the positive hats on.
38:09All right, you got Maui Noah, McCrary Ball, and Wallace.
38:13You could put Maui Noah below average.
38:15He was getting pushed around last year.
38:19McCrary Ball and Trevin Wallace, excuse me, you could put them in backup.
38:25Okay, so we got McCrary Ball in the backup category.
38:29Make sure I got the right player here.
38:32Hang on.
38:34What's interesting, the note about – what was that speed note about Trevin Wallace?
38:38Trevin Wallace at the Combine ran a 4-5, 140, which is one of the fastest linebackers.
38:41He's got insane elite traits but cannot hold himself on the roster.
38:46But the Jets pick him up, and now he's on the active roster for them.
38:48When he was in the draft, Ryan, funny note, in 2024 was a third-round pick,
38:53early third round, or eighth pick in the third round.
38:57He had an 87 athleticism score coming out of the 2024 draft,
39:02which was second amongst all linebackers in that class.
39:04Just a little note there.
39:06Okay, let's go to the DB room.
39:08Let's start with the cornerbacks.
39:09Brandon Stevens, AZ Thomas, Jarvis Brownlee, D'Angelo Pons,
39:14Nashawn Wright, and Quantes Stiggers.
39:16Let's start with Stevens and Thomas.
39:19Stevens I'm putting below average.
39:22As a cornerback one.
39:24No, I'm sorry, no.
39:25As a CB1.
39:26He's going in the average category.
39:27Considering the rest of this roster and how bad it is talent-wise,
39:30I think you have to put him at least the average.
39:32I'm putting him as a – okay, fair enough.
39:34As an overall corner.
39:36But what he's asked to do, guarding the best receivers on the other team,
39:40the wide receiver ones, he's outmatched every Sunday.
39:43He doesn't turn the ball over.
39:44That's the problem.
39:45If you want to put him over on the roster, fair enough,
39:47you could put him at average.
39:49Yeah, I think you have to put him at average.
39:50Where are you putting AZ Thomas?
39:51I don't know yet.
39:52That's a tough one.
39:54So, below average?
39:55I don't know.
39:56I mean –
39:56He hasn't shown anything, so.
39:58Yeah, you could put him – considering he's a cornerback two
40:01and he's the second most important corner on the team,
40:04yeah, I'd probably put him below average.
40:06Okay, and then let's talk about Stiggers and Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
40:11Jarvis Brownlee Jr. is interesting.
40:13You could make an argument as a nickel corner.
40:15As a nickel corner.
40:17I think he's average.
40:18I think he's average but has the chance to be great.
40:22Yeah, or has a chance to be below average too, by the way.
40:24Yes, you're not wrong there.
40:27The penalties will be the problem with him if he can stay away from causing bad penalties,
40:34holding penalties would kill him.
40:36And then Stiggers, where are you putting him?
40:38Backup or below average.
40:40You want to make the choice on that one?
40:41I don't know what to say.
40:42I think you put him as a backup.
40:43Yeah, put him as a backup.
40:44I've liked some things from Stiggers.
40:46I just haven't seen it enough, and the injury didn't help him out really at this point.
40:51So I'm curious when he's going to get his reps.
40:53But, again, special teams, guys, so we'll just keep him as a backup.
40:56That's a good point.
40:57The special teams after you forget about with him.
40:58So we'll put him below average.
41:00And I think you've got to put D'Angelo Pons, if I'm crazy, Frankie,
41:04you've got to put him in the backup role right now just because –
41:05Yeah, I hate saying that.
41:06Again, another guy just like Kenyon Sadiq missed all of training camp.
41:09And it's tough to really rank you as a player they're going to count on at the start of the
41:17year.
41:17He's got a lot of catching up to do.
41:19So we'll put him in the backup role as well.
41:21And do you see with this roster if there are certain things that can work themselves out,
41:27injuries with Sadiq and Pons, if it can work itself out that they can play,
41:32Devondre Sweat was also injured, getting into sheep.
41:35The roster can look good when this stuff isn't worked out
41:40and we're in like this waiting and see period with these guys.
41:45You've got guys like AZ Thomas that's going to get a lot of reps.
41:50You've got guys like Anya Mata that's going to get a lot of reps
41:53because you don't have these guys playing.
41:55Jeremy Rucker is going to get a bunch of reps.
41:57Once these guys get ready to go, the roster is going to look a lot better.
42:01All right, one guy we haven't talked about yet, Nashawn Wright,
42:03who missed a lot of training camp as well.
42:05I don't know.
42:06He's another backup.
42:07But he's going to get more role.
42:09I think he's going to be playing more than we think.
42:12Yeah, but I don't know what you can do with him right now in terms of a ranking
42:15because he was sort of this turnover guy in Chicago.
42:20But here we haven't seen anything.
42:22Backup?
42:23I mean, I think he has the potential to be average for them on this roster.
42:25Let's see a little bit.
42:26Because he turns the ball over a bunch.
42:27Let's even see it in practice.
42:28We haven't seen anything.
42:29Safety, Minka Fitzpatrick, Dane Belton, Andre Sisco, Malachi Moore.
42:33Let's start with the starters, Minka and Belton.
42:36Minka I'd put great.
42:38Yeah.
42:39I don't think that's fair.
42:40I know people want to put him in the elite category.
42:42I just think, again, the thing with Minka that's always going to be hanging over his head for me here
42:47is the age variable, and he's been on now three different teams.
42:53So, I mean, I kind of worry about that a little bit.
42:55You know, he went from Miami when he was drafted to Pittsburgh, back to Miami.
42:59Now he's here.
43:01You know, he's taken a little bit of a beating throughout his career, too.
43:05A toll on his body.
43:06What about Dane Belton?
43:09I mean...
43:10Below average?
43:11Yeah.
43:12Until we see it?
43:12Yeah.
43:13And I'd do the same thing with the rookie.
43:16I'd put him right next to him.
43:18He's not on here, so he's not on an active roster.
43:20Vijay Payne, they put...
43:21No, uh...
43:24Because Malachi Moore and...
43:25Yeah, Malachi Moore, I'd put below average.
43:26And Andre Sisco are the other two.
43:28I'd put all three of them.
43:30Malachi Moore and Andre Sisco, just put them all on below average.
43:32I think we just bunch up to see.
43:34That's the biggest question mark on this roster, is your second safety.
43:38You know?
43:39You're kind of depending on Minka to be great or elite to offset those other guys.
43:44But those other guys haven't proven anything.
43:46Actually, Andre Sisco last game, take it for what it's worth, his PFF score was really high.
43:52I'll just throw that out there.
43:53I don't know what that means, but I'm just throwing that out.
43:55I'm trying to, you know, throw these guys a few bones here in the safety room.
44:00Because we need it.
44:01We need good safety play.
44:02And Aaron Glenn is a former D-back.
44:05So, he's going to want to do some cool things, scheming them up.
44:08All right.
44:09Special teams.
44:09The scary part here.
44:11Before we get to it.
44:12I'm going to finish with the kicker.
44:13The scary part.
44:15Special teams should be the best part here.
44:17We don't have a kicker right now.
44:18Yeah, we do now.
44:19Now we do.
44:21McNamara and Hennessey, where are you putting those guys?
44:25I like both of those guys.
44:27McNamara average?
44:28McNamara average?
44:29I'd put them great.
44:30I think they're both great.
44:31No, I'll put them in average.
44:32What do you mean?
44:32McNamara is good, man.
44:33All right.
44:34Fine.
44:34I'll put them in great.
44:35I'm not going to argue with it.
44:36There's no reason to argue with this.
44:37Hennessey, you're putting great.
44:38Yeah, yes.
44:39Come on, man.
44:39Let's get all these special teams up.
44:40And then let's not forget our new kicker.
44:43Frankie's a huge groupie.
44:45Blake Gruppe.
44:46I love the Gruppe.
44:48It's Gruppe.
44:49Gruppe?
44:49Yeah.
44:50Gruppe.
44:50Where are you putting him?
44:52My Norwegian accent?
44:53I am putting him.
44:56Man, I was thinking about putting him in the elite category.
44:59No, stop.
45:00You got cut.
45:01I'm kidding.
45:03Man, put him in.
45:03Put him below average.
45:05Yeah, below average.
45:06I mean, listen.
45:07He's a Notre Dame guy.
45:08I'm kind of becoming a Notre Dame guy.
45:11Kaz is a Notre Dame guy.
45:12You know, I like Jordan Clark.
45:14Went to Notre Dame.
45:15I'm a big Jadarian Price guy.
45:16You know, so I like my Notre Dame guys.
45:18But, yeah.
45:20You know what?
45:21He's young.
45:21He's 27 years old.
45:24He's trying to, you know, fit in.
45:27He has, you know, I'm looking now.
45:29He has almost an 82% field goal percentage.
45:32But he's below average.
45:34That's the Jets 53-man roster.
45:36That's how we ranked it for right before week one.
45:39What are the tallies?
45:40Do you have it?
45:41Or are we got to do it after?
45:42You mean like how many in each one?
45:44Yeah.
45:44Right now we have four elite players with Brees, Garrett, Membu, and Demario Davis.
45:49Fair.
45:50Great.
45:50We have Olu, David Bailey, Minka Fitzpatrick.
45:54You put your two special teamers there as well.
45:58There's one, two, three, four, five, six great players.
46:02One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen average players.
46:09And then everybody else.
46:10And then everyone else.
46:11And then below average to back up.
46:12Okay.
46:12Fair enough.
46:12All right.
46:13I think that's good.
46:14All right.
46:15Any real disagreements you have there?
46:17If you had to just like scan it over quickly, is there anything that kind of pops out to you?
46:22No, I think we're fair.
46:23I think we were pretty fair here.
46:25Yeah.
46:25I think there's still some room for growth for some of these below average guys to get into that average
46:29category.
46:30And then even for like Joe Tidman and maybe even Gino, if he plays well, to sneak their ways into
46:35the great if they have great weeks.
46:37Yeah.
46:37We'll do it every week.
46:38I do like, last thing I'll say about this roster.
46:41I do like that Darren Muji has prioritized positions and groups like the D-line, O-line, wide receiving room,
46:52that when this team is ready to win, you're gonna value those players even more than we do now.
47:00Like those players, Armand Membu and Olu, are gonna anchor you when you do have a quarterback.
47:06Bailey and McDonald or that defensive line, they're gonna be able to get after a quarterback that is down two
47:12scores and you gotta win the game because you're actually up to, you know, you're actually up.
47:16So they're gonna be down.
47:17So like, there's things that I like about this roster.
47:19It's just about getting there.
47:21And can Aaron Glenn ultimately put this team in a position to succeed?
47:25We'll see.
47:26That's our rankings for the 2026 season, right before the season's about to kick off.
47:30For Frankie and Ryan, we're gonna have our season preview episode with Kaz coming out later this week.
47:35And then next week, we're gonna be starting off our preview for week one, Jets-Titans Sunday, 1 o'clock.
47:41Ooh.
47:42A lot to discuss.
