Speaker 2131.4s - 274.08s

Today's episode is brought to you by Game Time PRODUCT. Download the GameTime app, create an account, and use the code locked on NFL for $20 off your first purchase. Terms applied. Keita said in the opening, Oregon now Denver Broncos, fourth round rookie, fourth round pick for the 2024 NFL draft, rookie wide receiver, Troy Franklin, can and will push Marvin Mims PERSON.Their second round pick, which is crazy because if I remember correctly, in 2023, on day two, Sean Payton traded up for Marvin Mitz PERSON. So it's just a little bit of a bold statement that a fourth rounder the following year is going to push a second rounder that a second year player, I'm sorry, that the Broncos traded up for. But I just think about what do we?We talked about this on yesterday, right? Sean Payton making sure he's going to do everything possible that Bull Knicks ORG is successful. And what's a key step in that direction, Keith PERSON, is getting him on the field with somebody he knows, somebody he's comfortable with, someone that he understands timing and rhythm and chemistry.It's not second guessing when he's going to break at 15. Is he going to break at 15? Is he the type of receiver is going to break? If it's a 15-yard comeback, is he going to run at 15 and break it at 15, or is he going kind of decelerate at 12 and then round it and break it off at 14? Like, no, you know what Troy Franklin is going to bring to the table because you've playedwith them for two years at Oregon ORG right now. So I think that's a big proponent. The speed, both of these guys are speed threats, right? We know Marvin Mims is a deep threat. Troy Franklin is a deep threat, right? I truly believe that Troy Franklin, and I don't think we've really talked about it in, like, and maximize the conversation on how it's the best way they use them. Keith, I'm not going to lie. I think that they should throw him in a slot and give him that two-way go because with his, he's, he's very, the phrase I use and I watched him again, and I wrote this down was tempo to, tempo to Twitch PRODUCT. And what, and I wrote this down, was tempo to twitch.And what I mean by that is, he can tempo his routes and his releases, and then he's so explosive, and he's twitchy, that once he shifts gears, he can win in the foot race, right? So if you don't get hands on, that's why I kept saying, man, when guys get hands on, they rerout them.So I think Troy Franklin has a real shot to push Marvin Mims PERSON for significant playing time and snaps at the wide receiver two position unless they get rid of Cortland Sutton PERSON, which I don't foresee happen.

Speaker 1274.68s - 307.24s

Yeah, I mean, in order to have this conversation fully, right, like you got to go to the depth chart and people want to say, man, well, who are the Denver Broncos wide receivers, right? And so you look at they have Cortland Sutton, they have Josh Reynolds, penciled in as a starter, and then Marvin Mims PERSON, right, would be their slot guy. So you think about Troy Franklin, like you said, battling with Marvin Mims for the slot wire receiver position. Then they also have Tim Patrick, right, who'scoming off of, I think, back-to-back, like ACL, Achilles, something like that. Yeah, so back- back to back injury. So I look at a D.P.

Speaker 0307.32s - 313.5s

And I'm like, yeah, that that's a good situation. And then I also wonder, too, do you think he'll

Speaker 1313.5s - 329.06s

battle Marvin? What position is he battling Marvin Mims PERSON for? What do you think Marvin Mims are slotted in that Cortland Sutton, Josh Reynolds, Marvin Mamm's situation as far as is he the one, the two, the three in this position?

Speaker 2329.86s - 348.8s

Unless Tim Patrick comes back and he's ready to rock and roll and Keith PERSON and he's healthy and he makes it through training camp and into preseason and all that's fine, I think it's going to be the wide receiver two positions because I think that's open right now. You trade off Jerry Judy PERSON, which I'm not going to lie, I would have preferred to have Jerry Judy for football Knicks ORG right now. You know what I mean?

Speaker 0348.84s - 378.08s

Because of what Jerry Judy PERSON is able to do as a quick route runner and an easy winner, like, you know what I mean? Like if you prioritize him in the depth chart, you prioritize him in the progression and reads for the QB,he can be successful, man. The only thing that's kept this kid from a thousand yards is his darn hamstrings at the beginning of the season. He had like back-to-back season where he missed like four, three to four games because if he didn't have the hamstring problems, he probably cracks a thousand easy, man.

Speaker 1378.08s - 383.3s

Like, you know, and this even with sporadic offensive play caller with, you know, what was it?

Speaker 2384.18s - 387.28s

I forget the guy that was there two years ago. Heck you.

Speaker 1388.02s - 390.1s

Yes, and they're trying to replace him in New York City GPE.

Speaker 2390.24s - 442.34s

You know what I mean? Reports are. I'm like, who knew? He wasn't good. You know what I mean? He was going to watch the tape and figure that out.But, like, you know, I think that wide receiver two spot, again, Tim Packer comes back and he gives Sean Payton PERSON full confidence that, okay, I can run. In two wide receiver sets, like, you confidence that, okay, I can run. In two wide receiver sets, like you go out 12 personnel, I can run you and Cortland PERSON out and I can feel good about it. Then it'll probably be him. But at the same time, that deep ball aspect, you want to run that ball and get the,and kind of change the levers as I always talk about pulling, you know what I mean, like the slot machine. In Vegas, you want to pull that slot machine lever down and pull one of those safeties in the box, you need somebody that could take the top off to threaten that single high coverage. And either Troy Franklin or Marvin Mims are going to do that much better than Tim Patrick. And crazy enough, Tim Patrick hasn't played football in two years.So I think those guys might have a leg up on them, Keith PERSON.

Speaker 1442.94s - 527.78s

Yeah, I agree. And it should be an interesting battle, DP, just overall, right, watching those guys because I think when it comes down to the draft, we probably felt like this, then maybe Troy Franklin wasn't a first rounder, but we also felt like he wasn't a fourth rounder either, right? So they got good value in that selection, being able to pick him up right in the fourthround. And then it just, the icing on top is the fact that he's played with bow nicks already and that chemistry should already be there and i think it's going to be a situation where he's going bo knicks may feel comfortable giving him what am i trying to say i guess 50 50 balls right like just those opportunities like man you know when everything's breaking down around me, I feel comfortable just launching it to Troy Franklin because that's my guy and I know him right. And I know what's going to happen potentially if the ball goes that way. So it should be a fun conversation,man. And I think we should continue this. You know, the rookies pushing a second year players because it's going to be some interesting dynamics, right, especially with those teams that, you know, go position back to back years or go position, you know, you think about some of those teams where they went to cornerbacks, right? And then you think about they went cornerback last year also. So it should be some really fun conversation. But DP, it's time to take it to D-Town, man. We are going to Dallas. Yes, talk about Tyler Guyton playing left tackle, making a transition from right tackle to left tackle replacing aHall of Fame Tyrant Smith. So coming up next, man, we're going to talk about Tyler Guyton PERSON playing left tackle.

Speaker 2528.74s - 610.52s

The Dallas Cowboys selecting Tyler Guyton in the first round of the 2024 NFL ORG draft to replace Hall of Famer, because he's going to be a Hall of Famer, Tyron Smith PERSON.And this was a move. I think we talked about Guyton PERSON a few times during the 2024 process. He was like, listen, man, I know he plays right tackle. He is absolutely athletic enough to flip to the left.

Speaker 0611.1s - 632.2s

The Dallas Cowboys are making that transition. I think he played 50 snaps in 2022 at left tackle. So he's been on record. Like, man, I've played left tackle before. I just got to get used to doing it again. And the good thing for them, their facility is right next to where Duke Mandeweather PERSON,one of the best, if not the best offensive line trainer, basically is station.

Speaker 2632.32s - 671.8s

So you can just walk across the street. Hey, T.G, go get that work in with big, you know, big Mannyweather PERSON, man. And I think, you know, over at the athletic, you know, he talked about, you know, him moving from right tackle at Oklahoma to left tackle in Dallas. He spent the last two, like you said, spent the last two weeks working, you know, to help that transition, Keith PERSON, and they have high hopes for him to be that starter at left tackle.When you think about just moving, we had coach on and we talked about O'Line ORG and how, you know, going for, it's like writing with the opposite hand. How do you feel about Tyler Guyton PERSON, switch him, you know, going for, it's like writing with the opposite hand. How do you feel about Tyler Guyton switch him, you know, over to play left tackle, not for 50 snaps in the season, but for a whole season this time? Right.

Speaker 1671.98s - 779.06s

I don't know, D.P. I don't know, and I know the people don't want to hear that. But that's the thing, right, is that when you switch over, you don't know what results you're going to get in. I think when we had our guy on the offensive line coach, right, the trainer, he talked about that, right? And what I got from that conversation, D.P, is that every player reacts to it differently, right? Like, this is not a cookie cuttersituation where you can't say that, hey, don't flip guys from the left side to the right side or vice versa, or flip them, right? You can't, you can't say it. It's just how they're going to react. Now, from the videos that I've seen with Tyler Guy PERSON, and obviously he's athletic, right? He's working with Duke, Manny Weather PERSON, one of the best, one of the best guys out there. He looks like he's getting comfortable doing it, right? But we also know that it's different when the pads on and the bullets alive, right?And will you result into, because what a lot of people say is that it's like writing with your left hand or switching to your right hand and right hand switch into your left hand right well dp if i tell you to write something really really fast right you're going to automatically go back to what you know and so now it's it's it's mechanically it's breaking it down right it's breaking down the instincts and in what you're used to doing repetition after repetition after repetition breaking it down, right? It's breaking down the instincts and what you're used to doing repetition after repetition after repetition, breaking it down to where now you're doing everything the opposite side.And we know how important hand usage is. We talk about punch timing, right? We talk about footwork. We talk about the keeping the right base. All of those things are going to matter. And I look at the Dallas Cowboys situation, you know, I just finished evaluating them, you know, for our NFL ORG cross checks and stuff.And a large portion of this success of this team is going to be predicated on what, how would Tyler Guyton PERSON play as a football player? Does he have the ability or the ability in the world? And I think he can do it. No, 100%.

Speaker 2779.06s - 795.66s

I think the other piece to that, too, is to invoke Cooper Beebe's PERSON name, who they're saying in camp and Ricky Minicamp PERSON and stuff he's taking snaps at center so it's between probably between him and like Brock Hoffman PERSON so depending on who's playing if Brock Hoffman PERSON's kind of a veteran compared to you know he's been the leaguewith two years two three years of there

Speaker 1795.66s - 798.12s

yeah I think two more than three yep you know

Speaker 2798.12s - 864.66s

like if you run it with a veteran and if Tyler Smith PERSON on the left side feels comfortable with whoever's at center to be on the island by themselves, he can be that bumper on the, you know what I mean, on the inside for Tyler Guyton PERSON, which to help kind of accelerate his development, whereas like, hey, not telling you to overset, but if you do overset, I got your inside, right?I got your help inside, where if Tyler, if Tyler Smith had to lean a little bit more to the right to help Cooper Beebe PERSON out if he's starting at center, that might leave Tyler Garten PERSON on the island against whoever the star eddresser is, whether that's, you know, whether it's Nolan Smith or whoever from Philadelphia GPE, you know, Kvon, they got Brian Burns now, and Aziz Ojalari still with New York GPE. And we know that, you know, the commanders are going through kind of a rebuild on the edges with KJ. Henry PERSON and the guys they have.And I think that's going to be the big thing is when we get to camp, like you say, when the Bullets are live, that first matchup, one-on-one, right, Tyler Guyton, Michael Parsons PERSON. Well, how does that look? Right. Like, because that as a-

Speaker 1864.66s - 932.48s

Well, the thing is, DP PERSON, he's going to figure it out quickly, right? He's not going to have to wait to end season because Michael Parsons PERSON is there. We'll figure out if he can block all pro-edge rushers. And the thing is, just to, I guess, get back technical, right? It's, we talked, like I said, we talked about footwork. And when you get sped up in your process, it's almost how they talk about quarterback sometimes, right?It's that, you know, you work on all these mechanic things and all season and you do all these different things. But until it becomes muscle memory, that was the word I was looking for. Until it becomes muscle memory for you, then you're going to result back to what you do. And it's the same thing that happened with quarterbacks from time of time. They spend an entire summer going through different mechanics, but then they result back to their muscle memory when everything is live, right? And they have to make those, you know, split second decisions, right? And I wonder how that's going to go from, you know, for Tyler Guyton PERSON, right? If I'm used to,you know, using, you know, my right foot as my base foot. And then now it's my left foot as my base foot. And I'm, you know, I'm like just different things like that. And I'm trying to react to counter moves and, you know, what, would hand am I used to punching with and things like that so should be it I think it's going to make definitely make for an interesting storyline with

Speaker 2932.48s - 962.5s

Tyler Guyton out there in Dallas no 100% and you know like my thought is like man cowboys are going to feel a little perplexed right when you get that you know that first video excuse me of Michael Parsons lined up one-on-one against Tyler Guy, right? In the mind of a Dallas Cowboy ORG fan, the mind of a fan, you're like, oh, Micah PERSON should take, this should be easy work for Micah. But then if Micah makes it easy work and Tyler Godin looks like chopped liver, now you're concerned, like, wait a minute, but I just

Speaker 1962.5s - 967.52s

want you to lose that back. Like, you know what I mean? So it's like, you're supposed to be protecting Dax PERSON, you know.

Speaker 2968.22s - 968.56s

Blanchev PERSON.

Speaker 1968.96s - 1017.94s

I need you to give a little bit more fight. So I think for him, we know that he's got all the physical tools, right? The arm length, the athleticism, the explosiveness, the Twitch PRODUCT, the strength. He's a strong, strong dude as well. And, you know, when we talked about should they trade for Naji Harris, like he's going to help this run game because that's something that Tyler got was good at at Oklahoma ORG, moving guys off the ball, washing guys down, sealing edges and creating, you know,and collapsing the edge where, you know, the running backs can bounce it out and, you know, run off his hip and different things like that. So he's going to bring that. And I think that's going to be kind of an immediate success thing for him. And then it's all about getting him these reps, man, against the Marcus Lawrence PERSON, against, you know, Michael Parsons PERSON. I think they still have the kid from Ole Miss.Oh, Sam Williams PERSON.

Speaker 21018.44s - 1030.78s

Yeah, Sam Williams PERSON. Another explosive speed to power rusher. They drafted with Marshawn Neeland in the in this, on day two, right? I think it was like second third round that they drafted Marshawn Dillon PERSON on the western. Second round.

Speaker 11030.88s - 1043.24s

Yep. Western Michigan ORG. Michigan ORG. I was going to say Kentucky GPE, Western Michigan ORG. So Tyler Guyton PERSON is going to have plenty ofa variety of tackles in his own camp,

Speaker 01044.04s - 1075.92s

rushes in his own camp to get himself ready for the NFL for week one, right? Because you're going to see a lot of different styles. Like I said, whether it's, you know, Nolan Smith, Brandon Graham also with Philly ORG. Then they brought in, I don't know why I'm blinging. My man, Bryce Huff, who's like that just explosive bendy rusher from the Jets ORG. You go and sign him, you know what I mean? Like, it's going to be, yeah, it's like that just explosive bendy rusher from the Jets ORG, you go and sign him,you know what I mean? Like, it's going to be, yeah, it's going to take some time once he gets there. But the more you show him in camp and the more reps he can get, the better you're feeling.

Speaker 21080.84s - 1098.9s

Again, working with Duke Manny PERSON whether it's just easy money when you're right there that you can just go over, get that knowledge, that information, work on the aspects of the game and go from there. So I'm excited to see what Tyler Guyton PERSON looks like at left tackle. Again, he's not a fish. He's not a fish out of water with it. He's just not a fish that's been on the beach doing it that long. So, you know what I mean?

Speaker 01098.96s - 1106.22s

You got to make sure that, you know, he has the help. And it might be some Ferguson PERSON on the strong side, on the opposite, right, right?

Speaker 11106.22s - 1148.52s

Right. Yeah. Make sure that you cover him up. No, I didn't, I didn't even think about that, but that's definitely a possibility, right? Just being able to give him some tight-in help. But we'll see how they have to dictate formations and all of that stuff, too.You know, now you're putting a tight in right on deck Prescott PERSON's blind side, right? Which is not ideal as far as you know when you talk about safety blankets and stuff like that so we'll see how that thing plays out but d p ORG let's go to we got another de town up man we got to detroit right we're going to those detroit man they're talking about their first round pick terryon PERSON on right mr playmaker mr explosive mr ball skills himself have an impressive camp so far we're going to get into that conversation, man, and what he can provide for the DetroitLions.

Speaker 21149.22s - 1232.64s

Visit fandu.com slash locked on and make every playoff shot count because F fandu.com ORG Sass locked on and make every playoff shot count because Fandu is America's number one sportsbook. Thank you for making locked on NFL ORG draft.Your first listen today and everyday shot for being our everydayers. Terri-on Arnold, cornerback, first round pick for the Detroit Lions ORG. And per the athletic, I think is Diana Rustini PERSON. Even some of the clips you see, right? Like he talked, because there's a viral quote that he put out. I think it was for Mother's Day, right before Mother's Day,

Speaker 01232.64s - 1244.84s

Terry Arnold PERSON said, if my mom were a receiver, I jam her in the dirt, and she knows that. Happy Mother's Day. And it's like, Dan Campbell PERSON absolutely loved to hear a quote like that.

Speaker 21245.54s - 1274.74s

And that's just what you want to hear from, you know, you might not like, you know, if your mom's not comfortable with that type of discussion, she might not want to hear you say that. But his mom clearly knows the mentality of her son. But it's those are things that you love to hear. And he's been impressive. There's a clip where people, you know, again, we don't get the full angle, but, you know, the thing was like a crossing route, against soft coverage. He had to work through some bodies, but didn't give up on the play.Got back in phase. Tight in, I think it was, tried to turn it up field.

Speaker 01275.12s - 1317.56s

He tried to target him. He went and picked it off, right? And jumped the ball underneath, man, you know, down the field. And the ball skills are going to be there. He's going to play with that aggressiveness and physicality. But those are the things that you want to see from him.And it's crazy because, you know, when you think about, we always talk about pairing guys and prospects to teams and schemes, but it's also the psychology of the situation. Dan Campbell loves guys like Terry on Arnold PRODUCT. Those guys are going to be well coached. They're going to be tough. It will be gritty. They're going to be physical when they need to be. I'm excited to see what he's going to be well coached. They're going to be tough. It will be gritty.They're going to be physical when they need to be. I'm excited to see what he's going to look like because, and they said that also him and Inez Rake Straw are already bonding and creating that chemistry as two young corners

Speaker 11317.56s - 1430.28s

in Rookie Manny Cap PERSON as well. Yeah, I'm glad we're throwing In his Rake Straw PERSON into this conversation to DP. I think this has the opportunity to be a dangerous tandem for the cornerback position because both of those guys, they have dog in them, right? And the environment that they're in promotes being a dog, right? Like that's like that environment out there in Detroit with Dan Campbell PERSON has buildingthe team like we kept talking about, right? You're going somewhere where Aaron Glenn PERSON is the defensive coordinator who's played defensive back in the NFL for 10 to 12 to 13, 14 about, right? You're going somewhere where Aaron Glenn is the defensive coordinator who's played defensive back in the NFL for 10 to 12 to 13, 14 years, right? So he's going to be able to teach these guys certain little tricks of the trade. They have the mental as far as the football character and the want to, right? And then they also have the athleticism.So you just look at it and you check all the boxes. And I'm like, man, this is a great situation for both guys. But when we talk about that clip DP, the one thing that I think kind of got over, well, undersold. I was going to say oversold. But undersold for Terriano Arnold PERSON is the ball skills. I don't think people realize that this is like a high level ball skill guy, in my opinion. I think he has really good ball skills on being able to track the ball. He plays safety, right? So he understands depth, right? Like as far as the depth of thefootball, we talk about baseball, right? Sometimes, you know, you see those centerfielders, they run up too fast, ball flies over the head, right? He understands depth of the football. And that's what I'm really excited about. I think they're probably going to mix some coverages, right? Do some man. They're going to do some zone. They're going to do some really fun things out there. But I think just to see him and to see both of those guys, if you're a Detroit Lions ORG fan and if you're just paying attention to football period, right, you're like, okay,they got some explosive athletes now, right? They got some guys that can just flat out run. They got some young guys. We thought that they was going to address the cornerback position last year. They didn't. This year, they addressed it.They doubled down on it. And now they got two guys out of that situation that can just flat out get after it. 100%.

Speaker 21430.28s - 1457.86s

And the film, man, he had some outstanding plays on the ball at Alabama. I think it was Kentucky GPE. He's kind of playing cover three or he's dropping off, bates the quarterback, triggers, fluid hips, and makes a diving interception. I think he might have to pick six or a near-pick-six in one game. Like the ball skills, and one thing I love about him, Keith PERSON,and I know that you appreciate this as a former defense of back coach, is that he doesn't panic when you throw at him, right?

Speaker 01458.22s - 1466.16s

When the ball's in the air, he does not panic whatsoever because he's like, a lot of times guys panic for like one is tracking right trying

Speaker 21466.16s - 1474.44s

to make sure they track the ball right that's why they're not playing receiver the other reason why they're not playing receiver is because a lot of them can't catch you know and catch comfortably

Speaker 11474.44s - 1481.3s

but with tarion he's got the hands he can do both he can do both he tracks it well hand eye coordination

Speaker 21481.3s - 1549.74s

he'll go up at the catch point and make those aggressive catches and battle with a receiver, man. Yeah, he's going to, and with Emmanuel Mosley, Carlton Davis, not in his rake straw, the future of this cornerback room looks very good because you know your nickel is going to be Brian Branch PERSON. He's going to be your nickel because they have Melanfamu PERSON at,I think, Strong Safety, Kirby Joseph PERSON at Free Safety. So they don't even have to move Brian Branch back in the second, back, you know, deep into the secondary. You can keep him on the field as your nickel. And now it's about ironing out the outside corners in those nickel and dime packages. And I think Indus Richter, Terry, or Arna PERSON, are going to make more than enough, you know,headway in camp to push these veterans and say, listen, man, I get it. You've been here, big fella, but I'm here now. And, like, that's where Aaron Glenn PERSON is going to have to make that decision of who he feels comfortable with,especially you got to think about what Chicago ORG's going to bring to the table with receivers, what Green Bay and the versatile receiving weapon and options they have. And dear God, we know what Minnesota ORG got.

Speaker 01549.9s - 1589.82s

You know what I mean? So like you have to prepare for that, man. So I'm excited, man. I'm excited for, you know, these clips are fine. I just came with the training camp, get the pads on and really get to see, especially they get some joint practices going, get up, you know, get some clips of them against some other receivers that's not on their team,which, again, he's going to be baptized by fire because dealing with Amundra St. Brown PERSON. Yeah, like, watching the Detroit line, like, he deserve every penny of that extension that the Detroit Lions give him. That young man is just that good. And that's how you get battle tested. I'm not surprised Brian Branch PERSON is as good as he is incoverage having to deal with that guy in practice yeah he's going to learn in practice and then also

Speaker 11589.82s - 1686.68s

what i was going to say was that i get them out there early right get my rookies out there early because we believe we're a playoff team right so that that's that's the floor is the playoff team we're trying to win a super bowl right at the end of the day or make it to the super bowl so i want these guys by week 14 week 15 to start thinking like second year players right I don't I don't need rookie mistakes and I think you throw them out there early you get them in a groove right they're they're going to makemistakes it they're rookies right but at the end of the day this is already a soft spot for you anyway right so it's like you might as well go with the rookies go with the guys um that's that's ready that's locked and loaded that's ready to get the job done. If they hungry, let them eat, DP. And that's how I am. Let those DBs go, man.Let them roll, let them learn the situation, be able to coach them up throughout the season. And then, like I said, by week 15-ish DATE, they're already starting to turn the mental clock that, man, okay, I'm a second year player. I've seen this before. It's not my first time seeing this type of bunch set, but not my first time seeing this type of motion to a stack and all these other different things.I know how to pass this off. I know what to do on the goal line. You know, all of those situations so you don't have any of those mistakes. But DP, that wraps up another episode of the Locked on NFL draft podcast.
