Man, uh, social media is just all over this joy.
Everybody says Shatour’s falling and there’s a bigger gap than ever between Shattour and Cam War.
Do we buy, is this news or noise from the senses that you can get jewelry and what’s happening in Indy?
Yeah, it’s interesting.
I definitely talked to an executive today who had some serious questions about Shadour, also an executive who very much is going off the Shadour Tom Brady connection, and would the Raiders do that?
And I think it’s interesting because when I consider, and I know we’ve been talking about the Raiders quarterback situation because they are going to be a common thread in all these topics as they do.
Do not have an answer as much as Pete Carroll said.
What do you mean?
We back in the day, Russell Wilson, we had a competition, it worked out fine, which, as I noted on the on the podcast the other day, the fact that he said it worked out fine and not great when the man had what, like 9 Pro Bowls and 2 Super Bowl appearances, including a Super Bowl title there is wild to me, but also makes me question the degree to which he wants Russell Wilson.
I digress with regards to the Raiders and Stewart Sanders, I think that If I’m the Raiders and I thought I was getting Michael Pennix last year, and oh by the way, Michael Pennix looked just fine when he got in for the Falcons at the end of the year, despite the fact that they had two quarterbacks.
I’m taking it pretty seriously and considering do I trade up, do I make some sort of splash somewhere, and Mark Davis does not strike me as an owner who wants to be relevant.
So you could say falling, but you could also say falling to where and are the Raiders going to move up so that they can try and close that gap between how much he falls.
I think it’s noise.
I really do.
I mean, I, I, I thought it was interesting that that’s how, and again, I’m sitting here in Houston, I’m not there in Indianapolis, but when I started to make calls that almost immediately that became a topic of conversation when you were talking to people was, hey, maybe Shadour is not QB2.
In, in this process anymore.
And, and they weren’t meaning he’s QB1.
They were saying maybe he’s QB 3, maybe Jackson Dart is a guy who, uh, you know, gets his way, uh, you know, up the draft board by throwing in front of, of people in Indianapolis, has great workouts, has great interviews, um, doesn’t come off as maybe overtly cocky, which And I don’t, I don’t mean this in a bad way, but yeah, absolutely.
Shaddoor is very confident.
Like you, you, we’ve seen him at the podium at the combine, and he just straight up said, I am a, I am a culture changer.
You want to change?
I’ve done it before a couple of times.
That’s what you’re coming and you’re getting me for, and, and I don’t feel any pressure.
You know who my dad is.
Um, he sounded a lot like Dion.
I thought at the podium.
The reason why I think this is noise though, is because when I got to the combine last year, the first couple of days, all I heard was, oh, Drake May, man, I don’t know.
There’s these questions, he can’t do this, he can’t do that.
Uh, he, Drake May, he could be the guy that ends up sliding in this draft.
Yeah, he slid all the way to the 3rd pick.
Dan, come on, like, what are we doing here?
And, and, frankly, he slid to the 3rd pick because Jayden Daniels was the 2nd pick, and yeah, we now know why Jayden Daniels was the 2nd pick in the draft.
