The, the reason I like this guy is, you, you got a new defensive coordinator, give him just a big- Yeah ... you know, beefy guy to, to mess around with up front, and see what you can do on defense.
I like the idea of kind of going all in on defense.
Remember, and I, I- Yeah ... put this in the note to you, it's easy to forget the Packers don't have a first-round draft pick.
Yeah.
You know why?
Because with their first-round draft pick, they selected Micah Parsons out of, out of, out of Penn State, basically.
So- Out of Da- out of Dallas Cowboys.
Out of Dallas.
So why not build around that guy, right?
Yeah.
You, you've done some work building around love in the past couple drafts.
Get Just, I said it last time we talked, build a front, man.
That, that's how you win football games in the NFL.
Get offensive linemen and defensive linemen.
Yeah, I- there's, there's, you're gonna find no argument with me on that one, because if you win- As a quarter- as a former quarterback, right?
Dude, you win the line of scrimmage, you win the football game nine out of 10 times.
Yeah.
And, and you, you, you see it, you see it at all levels.
You know, that's what the Patriots are doing right now.

Their defensive line is winning them football games.
Milton Williams, they, they, he's their big, off-season signing.

Yeah.
Chase Webb's a game changer.
Like, we- you see that you can win football games if you have a great defense and a great defensive line.
I don't hate I don't- do not hate that approach at all, you know- Yeah ... when looking at this draft.
Yep.
We'll see what happens.
I, I think, let's do some research over the next couple weeks, and maybe we can do ourselves a little, a little round two mock draft.
I would love that.
Yeah.
Go all in, all in- And get excited about picks.
Can you see, like, a, another website doing, like, one of those, you know, "Packers Round Tables Mock Draft, here's what Andrew and, and Anthony think," and- Oh, yeah.
Little do they know we just, we just talked so much smack about that.
Or I did.
Hey, here's what they just said, and here's all of their mock drafts from, from February.
Yeah, that's right.
I'm gonna go super hard on mock drafts now just so I can- There we go ... so I can make a point.
There we go.
All right.
I love it.
Enough draft for-
