I mean, listen, I'm not saying I don't have opinions, but...
I'm the guy that thought Trey Lance was going to save the 49ers within the last decade.
So no one really knows how it's going to unfurl and unfold once these young guys, some of them don't even make the team, right?
I mean, stranger things have happened.
But I would say the two big observations are some people saying Jeremiah Love is
to the cardinals not a waste of a pick but if you have no line no quarterback and you're in disarray it's a year early it's yeah it's sort of like how the giants like like how saquon withered away with the giants he was productive but it's like too early for him like it's exactly how the raiders went with ashton gentry before they had their franchise so it's that same sentiment if you love a player that much then you're going to take them and wait and
Jeremiah loved him that much, I guess.
I think what surprised a lot of people was Carnell Tate going so early.
I think another thought was Ty Simpson.
And, you know, Alabama...
quarterback people thought he'd be the second quarterback taken overall but I don't think anyone thought to the Rams in that early right then and I think you saw you know facial expressions from McVay that was uh that you know what I'm glad you brought that up because that was another viral moment like it it appeared if you study his body language that he didn't seem too pumped about it that was the that was the social media sort of take on what happened and that's
Bulletin board material for him because you even saw John Lynch and some of the 49ers management snickering a little bit.
Like, oh, they went with Ty Simpson.
Oh, we're good with that.
Like, it didn't seem like anyone was super impressed or jealous that they took him.
Yeah, it's because the other teams in their division are like, well, that doesn't help them win at all this upcoming season.
Like, there were people said that if the Rams wanted to get over that hump to really show their dominance against the Niners and Seahawks, a weapon for Matthew Stafford as he aged, like, that's the move or more line help or something.
So when they went QB...
They got a plan for after Matthew Stafford, but it didn't seem like Sean McVay was like super stoked about it.
Sam, you got some audio from who?
