I'm doing good, man. It has been a while. It's good to catch up with you. I've always followed you. I feel like I haven't run into you or seen you as much anymore. You know, you're a West Coaster now. You know, I'm on that East Coast buying stuff, so I just don't see you as much, but always good to catch up with you, Ryan.

It's tough. You got it. It's a calculated decision. I got to pick and choose. Like I saw you last year. Right. I believe I saw you in the hotel maybe the night before the Super Bowl or maybe it was the Friday night before that. I saw you there. I stayed around for the Vegas Super Bowl. This year, though, no. I'm going home. I'm watching it on the couch. I can't do it every year all the time.

Yeah, I liked him a lot, right? I said, I had Caleb Williams in front of him, but I had said many a times in the process, I might even said it on the video, like most years, Jaden Daniels was the number one pick in the draft. He was that special. And I think when I went into it, I went into the evaluation process going, wait, I know the guy's a super good athlete. Obviously, he won the Heisman.

But how strong is his arm? I knew he had two awesome receivers there. How much of it was them? How much of it is him? And then I think the other aspect was like, Man, he's really skinny. Can he take a hit in the NFL? Are we sure that's going to happen? I think those were my early concerns. Then you watch the film and you go, damn, okay, he can make every throw.

And wow, his mechanics and the way he throws the ball are very repeatable. as far as that he's consistent with them. And usually when you look at really high-level, accurate, good throwers, they can emulate their motion perfectly time after time after time and become a machine, right? You know that. Shooting a basketball, throwing a football, whatever it may be. And then you start to get into...

wait like this isn't some guy that just looks to run he wants to play in the pocket he wants to dice you up with his right arm and and what he sees vision wise down the field and then you get into the running and oh wow when when he does run whoa it's special he runs like an NFL wide receiver and And then you saw some of the, hey, he's a little more physical and stronger than I thought he was.

Now, I still thought that would be an issue in the NFL, and that's probably still the number one thing that surprises me. Like you saw last night, he has runs where he just breaks tackles. He bounces off people and gets extra yards, let alone he can hang in the pocket and take people hitting on him as he's throwing the ball.
