Best picks from the 2024 NFL Draft + QB recap | Chris Simms Unbuttoned (FULL Ep. 612) | NFL on NBC

Please continue the barn tradition
Definitely rope in Florio too 😂
Without Ahmed though obviously. He def did not make it more fun. All he did was full Simms’s shine and try to knock him down a peg. No one wants a negative Nancy at a party. That’s why he shows up to these and is an automatic buzzkill: cuz he’s never been invited to parties and has no clue how to behave. Ahmed is Ahmed. And Ahmed is a certified buzzkiller
@@cit96AdizeroVaporhell no
That drunk/stoned stream won you a sub, Chris. Bring that back for the draft every year, and maybe even the SB.
Right exactly. Not Ahmed being lame per usual
stoned mike florio x chris simms alternative superbowl commentary would be golden
Eh, he does it every year. And likely every evening ….
Chris likes his weed
Those 2 chuckleheads explanation in Atlanta presser was like 2 kids explanation of how the window being broken isn't their fault.
What I love more than anything is how Chris had no qalms with sharing How well he can kick back and casually get lit 😂😂
You mean Chris?? The old man is blazing now too?
@@tylerd1297 yess thanks for the correction lol
Chris was slurring his words. That was good ole fashion alcohol 🥃 😂
Hey, so this is what Chris Simms is like sober.😜
This turned into my favorite podcast recently. Great content and info.
welcome
Despite Ahmed
@@buddysteele7624SOCIOPATH AGAIN - YOU NEED HELP.
100% agree with Chris on the negative group think BS surrounding Bo Nix has been nonsense this draft season. The negativity around Bo Nix has been as bogus as was the positive hype around Bryce Young last draft without being warranted.
I've never in 30 years of watching ducks football seen a player get more hate than Bo Nix.
"But he sucked at Auburn!" Cleary progression just isn't a thing...
It’s all about where these guys land. Bryce Young was in an impossible position. Brock Purdy was one of the best QBs in the league last season statistically. Do you think if he played for Carolina he would have been any better than Bryce Young?
@@FightYourCouch Bo nix 17 -7 at auburn. Auburn coaching was bad at that time.
Best NFL podcast
This has grown to be one of my fav shows. Chris-i never thought that Tampa qb from back in the day had so much personality-i love the content and have watched a lot of you the past few months. Keep it up!
2020 will be better than 2024 no doubt about it.
burrow, herbert, tua, hurts, love.
GL topping that class
It’s interesting that the 2020 class was so elite because it didn’t feel like it had that much hype at the time. Everyone knew Burrow was a slam dunk, but Tua and Herbert both split a crowd before the draft. Love being taken by the Packers seemed to piss of their fanbase same with Hurts and Eagles fans (I admittedly was not a fan of the pick). Then they all happened to work out. What a strange class.
Loved the barn draft reaction pod! Love you guys!!! ❤
Very fun watching your barn show thanks. You guys are unabridged, knowledgeable and honest. I make it a point to check y'all out every week. Big fan Chris, thanks .
Awesomeness!!! Look forward to this show !!! Go Rams
You should invite your top listeners to the draft party.
do you determine that by ear size?
uhh cmon dude fun thought but just for a second consider how much that would cost them. Is NBC gonna pay for that?? Of course not. You’re talking flight for however many people. Where are they gonna stay?? Okay put them up in a hotel. Are they gonna get chauffeured around?? Fed?? Never gonna happen
I would come over all the way from Switzerland to join the barn party - and bring some Swiss weed or some Special Cookies
I love how Seattle is in the back of Chris’s mind.
Great show as always!
Receiver that went to best circumstance?
Worthy not even close!
28:30 ive been tring to find someone make that point about Bo and the Broncos. People seem just want to keep kicking the broncos down because of the last years
TMNT will never die boys.
Great show bud
Atlanta better pray that this stunt works.They are never going to be able to sign a quality veteran quarterback again.
Ever~
I really love what my two teams did in Chargers and Eagles.
You know it’s a good draft when Simms begrudgingly gives praise.
Chargers I love going Alt first because Nabers + the tackle that would’ve been left is not nearly as good as Joe Alt + McConkley.
Got protection for Herbert, a DT, a LB and more WR and CB help. Great alignment of need and talent.
Loved the live draft. More live streams always are great. And you guys are not losers for commenting on great cartoon shows of youth. I still know the themes for TMNT and Inspector gadget amongst others. They're great memories and we should all enjoy them while we still have them!
Chris my friend it sounds like u are in my class the gluggers! Glug a lot to get out there then nurse to stay there and still be able to barely maintain! Welcome to the glugger club!
Maybe the Vikings moved up to avoid the pr or tiring him to culpepper with the 11th pick and also many it was a statement picking jj hight than any QB in franchise history. Love the take on the Vikings takes. Respect
🔥🔥🔥
Chris Sims on Unbuttoned, wearing no tie, with his shirt fully buttoned. Branding
The #8 pick we not wasted, at all. That was an asset that will mature like no other. The 100m was well spent too, Simms said himself they are immediately a really good team.
There are a few issues, but this was guaranteed v good QB play regardless of form or injury. What team can say that?
This year, not maximising the team, but maximising the future
Atlanta could of used that FA money on Defense..Pass on Cousins..draft Penix 1st Round...And draft Spencer Rattler latter on...For competition purposes
"A LOT to be desired"
I enjoyed the Draft show. One thing not being said about the Atlanta QB situation -- it isn't possible two months ago to KNOW that Penix would be available to them. Also, they already know Cousins has been, and could still be, injured and unable to play immediately.
"Protect your Spleen!",..lol
In reference to what Chris said about the Chargers’ picks and Harbaugh attempting to implement his culture, he’s drafted two players from Michigan in positions that need someone who’s fully bought in. Linebacker was an issue with the team lasts season, and with a fresh start at WR with Allen and Williams gone, Cornelius Johnson, even as a rookie and 7th rounder, should help lead by example for Quentin Johnston in particular. Johnson seems like a really good character, hard worker, and his background with his family backs that up, his father runs an organisation that teaches and promotes the history of African Americans in professional basketball before the colour barrier was broken in the NBA. Very smart guy and it was so cool when I realised his son was a college football player and a genuine draft prospect. I could be assuming a lot of his son, but it should help Harbaugh, I think, to have a few of his Michigan guys to help the transition
To your point about punters being under appreciated. Peyton Manning fans will remember the Colts lost to San Diego in the playoffs, in 2009, and most people will attribute that win to Darren sproles, but Mike Scifres pinned the colts inside the 10 and 20 multiple times in that game. Totally changed the game.
Keon Coleman is going to be a sneaky great WR. He knows how to box out his coverage and always have his hands open, like Antonio Gates did for Chargers.
He’s going to be a latacyice squad player he’s slow and can’t seperate
Brock bowers at more than +2200 OROY is a great bargain
He could have 10 tds and it will still go to a qb. The great odds were raiders drafting tight end first at +10,000 which I put a drunken bet on lol
We need Twist Simms at LEAST once a week...
There is no way Daniele Hunter ends up at Atlanta.. he turned down more money to play in Houston.
I don’t see it in the Drake Maye, JJ McCarthy and Bo Nix picks. It’s like anyone can be a first rounder now
The owner obviously didn't sign off on penix he was pissed lol
you really think the owner didnt know who they were drafting?come on now,use your brain
@@MrCHB4life go watch the video of the owner giving it to the gm right after this pick then let me know what using your brain has done for you
I'd love to chill out with Chris Simms and Mike McDaniels and just smoke some good weed and talk about and watch football
Chris Simms nailed the Bo Nix pick. I had Nix rated as the #2 QB in this draft behind Williams. Penix Jr. #3. Daniels, Maye, McCarthy all carry significant bust potential due to lack of experience. Way too much hype on the others by pundits specializing in regurgitation of bad narratives. Tape this to yer fridge.
Daniels does not have lack of experience man.
well its a good thing you arent a scout
Only way Falcons get out of the nightmare is to eat Cousins' $100M guarantee and trade him to the Raiders! LOL.
I wonder why Chris Simms never gave coaching a tryout
Please do drunk pods again. That shit was awesome subed just cause of that
2 COMPENSATORY 3'S NEXT YEAR AS WELL
Is that the same shirt from draft night Chris? 😂
What other teams was looking to sign Kirk cousins for that amount of money he got from the falcons ?
I am 100% convinced Chris HATES the saints. I swear this man never talks about them, gives them credit or nothing 🤣
Daniel Jeremiah definitely had Arnold as his CB1. Over here in the UK on Sky they used the NFL Network coverage, and he was the main scouting analyst, I found some of his draft rankings and opinions so baffling as Chris is the only guy I really listen to 😂 Arnold especially, given he wasn’t in Simms’ top 5
The Cousins contract is more of a head scratcher than the Penix draft is.
Don’t worry, no need for them to talk about KC’s draft picks in this video. 1) They said they might not get to every team, and 2) They’re going to spend the entire month of February 2025 talking about KC’s 3-peat anyways. 🏈💪😎
If the Falcons didn't know almost everything they needed to know about Michael Penix Jr before they signed Kirk Cousins... 🙄
Rich Eisen - "When in the evaluation process did you see Patrick Mahomes and go, 'that's the guy'?"
Andy Reid - "“Brett was pushing us with this guy forever, he was wearing John and I out with this quarterback, from the time the kid was a freshman...". “He was down on the field before one of the games scouting him at Texas Tech and he goes, ‘You’re not going to believe this quarterback. This guy is unbelievable, like the best I’ve ever seen,’” Reid said. “So you know, when somebody tells you that, that has the experience Brett has, you better look at him.“
Pennix is mature after 1 year he needs to play . The Falcons can say whatever but it’s either Kirk will win the them a bowl or pennix will take over
Penix is no problem at all. Worst option trade cousins to giants/raiders and pay some of his salary, who cares. Better to have the QB.
As for spending the 100m on others, how the hell you know you getting Penix? Pats should have taken him, instead they getting fired
Dude the eagles best pick was Ainias Smith and nobody knows it.... Damn it Howie!
He is too perfect. I agree. Walk you guys everyday
There is really no good ending for Atlanta with this situation. The only way it works out is if Cousins injury continues to bother him or he gets seriously injured again and Penix saves teh day. Otherwise as soon as they arent that good, everyone is going to be calling for Penix, its going to lead to tons of headaches for the team and players and they are going to end up releasing Cousins at the end of the year and eathing all that money. They wont ever get the salary cap advantage of QB on his rookie contract. Such a bad football move.
30:06 George Paton said it best ... Bo was their guy and they weren't going to risk losing him for the couple of 5th rounds picks weed get for moving back.
My dark horse to win the offensive rookie of the year Is Keon Coleman.
I am literally rooting for him.
Detroit. Guy wants you to say Vikings. overpaid. Think the Raiders didn't want McCarthy. What does the Value Chart say about getting the 8th ranked player at pick 17 when you started out with pick 23? Going up against 31 other teams. Process it that way Skoll
Sure wish your closed captions were more readable. Kind of hard to read with misspelled names and no punctuation.
I honestly would play Michael Penix from at some point this season to take over. Kirk will never be that guy to take chances downfield.
Naw you already paid Kurt man, unless he's mediocre to start the season and they're 500 or below
I like us getting a punter. Trenton Gill was bad and special teams is important. Taylor can help us win games with field position.
This "they overpaid" narrative is such dumb reporting. If I told you prior to the draft the Vikings were going to get both JJ and Dallas yet it would required trades in both scenarios to get them, I GUARANTEE you every analyst in the media would have projected more draft capital to do so than they ACTUALLY did. They got a top 4 QB in the draft and the best edge rusher. Most boards had both players in the top 10 overall and they didn't mortgage a future first for either. Well done Vikings!
I'm convinced Eagles Howie Roseman just looks at the consensus big board for his draft and that's why he "wins" the draft every year. This guy even joked about calling up Daniel Jeremiah to take a player off his best available.
Atlanta drafting Penix is only a bad move if they end up top 10 with 5 QBs worthy of a pick there while Penix is under his rookie contract. They have a legit out of the contract after two years and big name players due new contracts. 90 mil in two years and can pay the remaining 10 out over the next two. So they can backload players like Terrell and London, backloading their contract.
Beefing up the O line should b the most important job in the draft w/out good line QB doesn't matter
39:40 Trotter was simms 4th graded linebacker and we got him in the 5th round. What is this dude yapping about?
37:45 if the lions were getting the same love Ahmed would make a mess on himself 🤡
Why Is Brandon Dorlus named spelled with only the L lower case lol ? 20:45
Bad financial move on the Atlanta Falcons part
Make sure y’all show love to the saints ⚜️
i like Simms ...he is very realistic
Steelers killed the draft 2 years in a row, team should start making some noise.
steelers did good drafting 2 years straight but afc north is the best division in the nfl and it takes time for some guys to develop they are gonna need a few years before they start thinking about winning that division
@@getbrainseeds literally just made the PO with Pickett and Rudolph but ok
BO NIX TO TROY FRANKLIN 🦆🦆🦆
Salary cap as a reason for 6 QBs in 12 picks?? What?? 30 years haven't produced it, but all of a sudden teams are conscious they have a limit (when it went up surprisingly much this year!!)?? You guys have NO idea about contracts. Ask Lamar if he wishes he took your advice? Haha
He's talking about the rookie salary cap/wage scale. In the 2000s up through 2010, 1st round picks were some of the highest paid players in the league. He's saying teams were less likely to take a chance on someone if they were then going to have to give that player a multi-year, high salary deal. It's much more palatable now to take a shot at a QB in the 1st since you'll only be paying them their rookie contract.
lamar the mvp at choking?
Love Chris Simms please keep doing what you do (except without Florio)
I keep hearing people say DJ James dropped due to the "4th & 31" play, but that can't be legit, right? One play drops someone a round or two?
I switched Alt and Latham😭
I can’t listen to him. Saying “right” every 6 words is a problem.
And why do you need to share this problem with us? Right
Yeah, right
Remember Simms loved Zack Wilson when he came out, so I predict the Penix pick will turn out fine.
Wilson was the consensus #2 that year. Pretty much every analyst liked him that year.
@@AddMiller221FACTS!
Every thing you’re discussing today is what I was feeling since it was announced. Then the GM comes on and says it makes perfect sense, which totally confused me. This make no sense.
Ororo was a reach too, most people had 2+ DT'S projected above him
One how many Michael Pinex Jr. jerseys are selling so far? Maybe better than the starter Cousins jersey I don't have the data.
It better be slot with a cap hit of 65 mil dead money if cut or traded in ‘25 along with 25 mil additional cap hit.
A lot
When tf did kurt cousins become a "good quarterback?" Falcons were so dumb to sign him at all, let alone pay him what they did. Then to go out and draft penix? I love being an eagles fan, falcons don't know wtf they're doing
Damn none of the pundits have X Worthy as a good player at 28
He went to the right team though,.or it wouldn't have been "Worthy" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣~
Andy Dalton 2nd Rd. Many good years for the Bengals bcuz the Bengals were able to also have other outstanding players. But in all your mentioning early in this podcast you have not yet named a QB better than Brock Purdy. NFL QB evaluation is terrible.
Memba Karate Kid?
Ooooo. I memba.
Chris can’t resist every chance to say how much Drake Maye sucks, he’s gonna have to eat those words
Only if he is able to correct the issues Chris pointed out.
The Vikings offered 3 first round picks to NE to draft Maye. If he is so bad, NE would have traded that pick.
@@attilasuto6013 "If he is so bad"
No one is saying he is bad. Simms thinks he is worthy of a first round pick and has huge upside. He just points out he has a lot of work to do to correct some issues.
@@rbruggeman7722 He reminds me of Josh Allen when he was drafted, but not as physical of a runner.
Ahmed is the worstttttt. He could ruin the best party. I mean look at his shirt. Simms somehow said that Ahmed is the most perfect human ever. Hell no. He just behaves out of fear of getting in trouble. That’s why he won’t even say ass on the podcast. A grown man
DABS AWAY ~~~ GO NINERS ~~
Idk why nfl teams do not hire chris as a gm
WTF! I came to grips with Alt to the Chargers, now I find out that teams wanted to trade up to get Nabers! Unless they were outside of 15 they should have traded back!
They didn't have much room to move back if they were sold on Alt. The Titans were picking at 7 and were in the market for a OT. They may not have gotten Alt, if they move back later than 7.
Biggest Twist Ever… What if Aiden OConnell ends up having a better year than any of these Rookies?
NBC seriously acts like Minnesota is the new Americas Team. When’s the last time they did anything remarkable?
What do you mean? We never get the national media attention. People consider us fly over country.
I’m no Vikings fan but largest comeback in nfl history in 2022 is pretty remarkable
the Vikings are Florios favorite team,thats why they talk about them alot.
@@MrCHB4lifefacts.
Raiders just signed Gallup👀 adams, meyers, Gallup, Tucker, bowers and Mayer… fuh I hope AOC or Minshew puts their big boy pants on. Maybe Brady will sign 🤣
Bo Nix is Mac Jones
Hell no. More athletic and stronger arm.
Did he really just say “they’ll have that black thing going”???!
Chris What Happened To The Other Dude Bro
