I he got a chance to be in the top 10 sauce Gardner from
Cincinnati. Yes, he's got a chance to be number. One hands
down first. There's just not many people on earth like sauce
Gardener. I mean, I'm not even a fan of the big tall corner
like, you know, me, that's not my kind of cup of tea,
but when you turn on and go, we the big tall Corner who skinny,
who has feet like a guy that's five. 8178. Okay. Wait, I'm
interested here all the sudden. Oh, whoa, and then you start to
go.
Whoa. Okay. Yeah, the big Talk Corner, who usually they don't
have great, you know, acceleration or speed. And it's
so build up that you're like well, yeah, by
70 yards he can really run, but we needed to really run by like
10 and 20 yards. That's what again. Oh, wait, this guy. Does
that? Okay? Wait? All right. So wait, we got sighs, we got
unbelievable gym at the line of scrimmage.
We got sick, quick feet. I mean, quick as hell, and then
you go.
Oh wait and then the speed matches it
you know. Again, I don't give a s... what my cup of tea is he's
my cup of tea. If you're that, that sign me up. All right. So
that's where I think I was impressed with him so much.
I was not expecting to see somebody quite that Twitchy and
explosive insured areas. That's that tall.
I wish there was a hair better straight away acceleration,
right? But that's like the only negative thing. I can really
look at tackling. Listen. That's another negative thing.
He's not a great tackler. He
does. He won't put on Earth to tackle,
but he's gonna tackle when he has to.
He's not like afraid to the Alabama. Game was a big game.
He made plenty of tackles in that game. And so, but
just it's a freaky unique-looking Corner. Ahmed
that kind of just is, you know, kind of pops when you, when you
turn them on Pro Football. Focus said he was built in
a lab to play press
coverage. He tons of experience with it.
I guess over 850 press coverage snaps in his
career. Yeah against Alabama. He was awesome. Just gave up 14
yards. They only targeted him four times in that game. And so
and so they knew they say he's highly competitive
bordering on. Cocky.
I mean, that's what you want to Corner. No question. No
question, you know and you know, hey, they
they were a team, you know, plays it all to
place a good amount of Zone to where you can see that as well.
But yeah, I mean, I don't want my Corners, any other way than
cocky, like borderlining on delusional Cockiness. That's
what a corner supposed to be. Do we have his tweet
about talking about how good he thinks he is. Oh, yeah,
so if you're watching He tweeted, I'm the best player in
the draft. So that's cocky. That's confident cocky. That's
confident, his nickname. Now his nickname sauce, which is
his alternate name is a really good name,
Ahmad, you know, it's almost perfect. It's almost perfect.
Yeah,
but he goes by sauce because he got that nickname. When he was
6 years old, 6 years old from his little league coach, he who
liked his Swagger. He goes my personal meeting as a level of
confidence when I'm on and off the field. I make sure I've got
the sauce
that keeps You going.
So I
I love that, right? And if, if you can be a good team player
at the same time having
ultra high confidence. I mean that sounds like number one
personality that definitely has that kind of thing. You see his
passion on the field to,
you know, that was the one thing I really liked liked about him
and Booth, especially it's not all that, even armor. Yeah,
it's you could tell it meant something ain't even armor
Davis, like it meant something to them. There was real
excitement. There was real, like, get up. Are you didn't
get Get this off of me.
Eat that I shut you down.
I love that. You got to have that there.
So yeah, I think when you look at all of that stuff all
together
it just to me it's kind of a no-brainer here in this one.
This year. I do. I wish his top end speed like, do I think he
plays 2441? It's closed.
Like I said II wasn't going. Oh, my gosh, is top-end. Speed
is so special, but it's plenty fast.
And then, you know, like you said, it's the other areas.
That maybe make up for that
speed that I wish we just had a little bit
but you know, everything else. I mean,
it's really incredible. I holds a hair a little much for my
opinion. He's going to be incredible and Zone coverage as
well. That's going to be the other thing too.
He's got good feel for the game. You can tell that, you
know, you got a receiver there playing cover to he's
the covered to Corner.
He's got a midpoint of receiver who runs a 20-yard out route
and a five-yard underneath. Route, he plays at just
the right way, let alone with his length
and then his like,
his quick twitchiness
and ability just like, oh wait, I gotta
hop over here and do this and like get a hand in the way that
to me is its high-level Elite stuff there.
So really you're really looking at the guy again that he's
going to be able to match up with all the big freaky
receivers in football,
you know, the Mike Evans against AJ greens and DeAndre Hopkins.
The he's made to stop those guys. This is He is put on
earth. Now.
The Cooper cups,
you know, the obj's. That's the one I'd worry about him
a little bit, you know, again a little the change of Direction
where you had to run really fast this way. Now, stop and
they'll run really fast the other way. Also, I was talking
about like,
the acceleration
I think was the only thing I looked at to go.
Okay, that's not perfect. Other than that,
everybody else. Everything else was pretty perfect for the guy
at that length. I mean, freaky freaky, really? And you don't
have a lot of guys that come along like this very often.
Your number one. Corner. Harry guests coin road in. Can you
see with a Wink
Martindale scheme? That loves aggressive Corner sauce.
Gardner, being that pick at number seven for the Giants?
Yeah, I could,
I definitely could see that being a
I got to evaluate draft needs and team and things like that
a little bit here as we go,
I think of the Giants, you know, I know Bradbury. He's
still there. Right there
Pete, am I wrong. They tried
trying to restore. They trying to restructure other trying?
Structure a Dory Jackson's contract a little bit, right?
So I could see them in the market here and independent on
Bradbury and if they trade him or something like that then
maybe that's where sauce Gardner,
you know jumps in the conversation
for Wink Martindale in the Giants. What did you see from
his teammate because 11 Jordan Cole Road in and talking about
Kobe Bryant also in Cincinnati.
Yeah, since Y is Kobe Bryant slept on teams avoided sauce
and Coby still got the Job done
seems like a guy that will be a steal for someone. Yeah, it's
just there's there's he's a good player. He is very smooth
to me. It's it's it's just the pure physical ability, the raw
physical ability,
you know, the I wrote some of the change of Direction
movement is less than some of the side to side movements was
less than
he was a horrible
tackler, one-on-one, you know.
Yeah, the change of Direction stuff was not good enough and
then the straight-line speed, you know. It was just good, not
great.
That was the big thing. And again, Kobe Bryant's a good player
to me. I wrote down 3rd round corner,
but those are just some of the reasons to me why he's not in
the mix with some of those guys that are you know towards
the top of the list.
