Brett "The deeper I got into JJ the more I liked him" Kollmann
He must have a candy center.
Ayooooo?
Spoken like a large portion of the student body at Michigan (or the inverse for the female student body)
@@sawyernorthrop4078 jj probably knows the female student body well
Indiscipline reference?
yeah i got a question would you rather fight one T'Vondre Sweat sized Kyler Murray or 3 Kyler Murray sized T'Vondre Sweats
ur unfunny kid
One Kyler Murray. Idc if he's 7ft tall.
One Murray cuz id rather fight one big guy than 3 normal sized people
Shit is neither an option? Its either a bigfoot sized kyler or 3 slightly shorter than normal dawgs. Lowkey one tvondre sized k1 cus he not used to the size and fighting 1 dude is easier than 3 fasho
I would not take one T'Vondre Sweat sized Kyler Murray 1v1 at Call of Duty
I can’t tell you how awesome it is to watch a video that gets into content in the first 30 seconds. You dive in immediately and then start doing back strokes the rest of the video. Keep up the great work
What makes Brett the goat of the NFL draft analysis is that he can talk about guys like Northern Iowa DT Christian Boyd off the top of his head, all day any day. It’s crazy how many guys him and EJ know about every year.
Dude, it’s his job.
@@Nautilus1972 it’s a lot of peoples job. I can guarantee you Mel Kelper can’t talk about Christian Boyd outta Northern Iowa off the top of his head like Brett can, even though he’s probably making more than Brett. Sorry I complemented someone for being good at their job.
Andy Reid choked for 25 years and never won anything before mahomes is better than The guy who won a Super Bowl with a backup qb throwing to Jeffries and agholor and beat Brady. The next year made another playoff run with foles and was a dropped catch away from winning back to back Super Bowls with a backup. Reid the habitual choker every season before Mahomes Kelce Chris jones and sneed is better than Pederson ?
@@oxiclean4972 i mean you dont know tbh. we dont hear mel talks about that kid cuz in segments obviously they will talk about whats hot and cant mention a late round kid out of nowhere cuz nobody from the casual audience will know who he is talking about
Brett please do more of this type of content, absolutely love the engagement with the fans

Thats why Devon Witherspoon pick as a nickel was a great pick by seahawks last year
spoon plays the outside tho
@@ricardorivera7549he does both
18:05 I 100 percent agree Brett. I have been saying this for YEARS. Most DBs absolutely SUCK at tackling. I would grade Sauce Gardner as a near perfect corner if he wasn't so abysmal at tackling. That's why Jalen Ramsey is probably one of the best Cornerbacks period. Raheem Morris knew his strengths in Coverage and as a Run defender so he put Jalen in the Slot when he was with LA
I guess they are going the Deion Sanders route: "I'm paid to cover, not to tackle"
Sauce will tackle but he really seems careful about getting his legs caught up in piles. It's very noticeable
@@user-hs5vb6kc9o Yeah NY really gotta clean up their run defense.
It’s part of the reason antione Winfield (sr.) was such a beast a corner, he was a very good tackler.
@@levipetersen4406 Neve watched Senior play. Gotta look him up
Bro i've been watching Brett for years as a collegiate DB myself just to stay sharp on my knowledge of the game but this dude knows exactly what he's talking about. at 16:30 only a few of you know but he's literally speaking as if he's a DB who's played nickel before. The difficulty is exactly what he's explaining but yet we get on social media and are quick to bash a nickel.
Please more Q and A videos. This is the type of content we need
‘you’re a linebacker today bud!’ 😂 classic line from a classy guy thanks Brett!
Decided to Google the BYU Punter Ryan Rehkow, he’s 6’4.5 and 240lbs. Holy shit lol.
I was at one of their games this year, and I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen a ball get hit as far as he launched it. It was insane
Mizzou's kicker is also a pretty large human being. He's not tall, but he's listed at 243 pounds on a 5'11" frame. Their punter is also 6' and 210 pounds, and both of them wear numbers in the 90s-I guess they're on the smaller side for defensive ends...
Most punters are actually huge dude. It is not super common to see a punter under 6'3" 220 iirc
Vikings current punter is 6'3" 245lbs and has punted 73 air yards in the NFL
THANK GOD. finally someone outside buffalo realizing how great train Johnson really is, the best pure Nickel DB in the fuckin game today
And I missspelled his name like a an idiot
Never rooted for Penix harder. To play as well as he did and to be such an afterthought for so many media outlets... how sweet it would be to be that guy in the NFL
more vids like this brotha
If I was going to put a comp for him, it would be a bear. 😂
This is why you’re the goat Brett lmao.
As someone who had to block Cristian Boyd multiple times a year in high school that man is built like a bear. Also gotta say I feel a lot better about getting my ass kicked by this dude knowing he’s gonna get drafted 😂
As the video started, I was thinking that there is no way he has a punter question today. Can always count on you, Brett. Go Hawks!
Big Dickson Energy 😂 go Hawks 💙💚
Brett, let me tell you…I’ve often thought that exact same thing. “Why are nickel DB’s so….a dime a dozen, from a contract standpoint, with as little attention as they get from the staff/front office, while needing to be, what’s essentially, a good box safety who can cover?!” This is one area where being a Seahawks fan DOESN’T suck. Schneider really does understand the value of a good nickel. Hence having ‘Rique and ‘Spoon on the outsides, and Coby Bryant at nickle. Bryant is a GREAT open field tackler. So is Spoon, for that matter. The rest of the secondary…? Let’s just say we’ve addressed a potential “coaching deficiency”. But that’s kind of more to my point. That was one of the things that lead to the staff being fired. The defense REALLY struggled with 1-on-1 tackling. It lets me know that Schneider isn’t resting on his success, is looking to sustain it AND, even more importantly, understands the game enough to know what it’s gonna take. Anyhoo, that’s my 2 cents. 🤷♂️
Please do this format more often. You are fantastic at it! Much appreciated.
I don't think people are overthinking Maye. I think the problem is that Maye was a bit overhyped. Coming into this football season, it was Williams and Maye fighting for top pick. While both had down seasons, Maye really looked like a sophomore QB who needed more development. But, since his draft stock isn't going to be any higher, here he is. Some have overreacted a bit and have gone the other way on Maye, but I think it has been more of a reality check. Maye is the #2 QB, if your organization has the patience to develop him. The problem is, I don't trust a lot of NFL orgs to have that patience.
Well said, any one of these top QB prospects could be a guy somewhere. Maye's overhyped but teams have seen guys like Mahomes and Allen have not so great college stats, or Lamar who was ignored in the top of the first round, but then go on to dominate the NFL, so they don't want to miss out on Maye should he turn into one of these guys. I think they see Herbert a bit in him too, who lots of people thought was not a first round guy and was a bit of a risk to take.
@@user-en9qd5nx8w The Maye fans set expectations too high. While I see the potential, the issues can't be ignored.
Thank you for mentioning Taron Johnson! He's so good, and I feel like he doesn't get talked about enough.
"I scout punters by sound" LMAO how is this even a thing
Yooooo did NOT know that the Vikings grabbed McCown at the most BLATANT role he could be in. Career journeyman, buncha systems, knowing how to adapt and improve, I LOVE it.
JT episode rocked
I appreciate your videos so much. It has helped me understand and get more into football. You are a fucking box of knowledge and I love being the sponge, soaking up everything you spit. Keep it up!
I agree that it's fun to see small school players make it at the NFL level, especially knowing HOW MUCH they have to show out to get attention. Like, Kalif Raymond from Holy Cross has found a niche role for himself for a few years, or Nicholas Morrow who's been a starting level linebacker in the NFL for the last 7 years out of a Division 3 school, Greenville College. It's what makes the draft and scouting so interesting. Talent can come from really anywhere.
Love your nickel corner rant. Very under appreciated position by the average football fan
Brett delivers 100% of the time - all the time
Boyd is an really underrated shout, Brett. Heard around the Pats space, that they really like him - maybe mid-round pick to pair him with Barmore, would love to see that
Today I learned the difference between a nickel DB and a DB that just so happens to be the 5th best DB on their team. So thank you for that.
the bear comp may the best thing i’ve ever heard oh my god 4:30
As someone who didn't submit questions, you should do this more often. This was great.
4:31 "if I was going to put a comp for him, it's a bear" is one of the funniest sentences I've heard in a while
12:06 That's me! You nailed the pronunciation on the second try (it is JAY-ho) so no big deal👍🏼
I've also had this question for a while, and as a longtime subscriber, stoked to see it featured on the show. It’s crazy to me that I've had a hand in the creation of this piece of content/been immortalized on your channel by making it on to the thumbnail lmao
It was a great question, thank you for it!
“Malik Nabers isn’t more than a slot receiver”, hmm idk about that now. People said the same about Jefferson
Yeah, that one caught me off guard. Would love to hear him explain that one, cause from a testing and analytical profile, Nabers is one of the best WRs that has tested, and out tested MHJ at times. Just a different take on a prospect, but one I just cannot agree with.
Watch Bretts explanation on it in his receiver coverage on Bootleg football and there he discussed how he thinks Nabers is best put to use in the slot. There his podcast partner EJ and receiver guru, guest Harmon agreee with him based on what they saw from him in press reps. Basically, press coverage limiting his potential is a fear is what I got from that.
Isn't that okay though? Good slot receivers routinely get a ton of catches and go over 1,000 yards. I wouldn't be overly shocked to see a Ladd McConkey type WR post similar numbers to an Odunze or Harrison Jr. with the exception of yards per catch and maybe TDs.
He struggled against press coverage. Slot receivers are sometimes the best receivers on the team. Examples of these would be Doug Baldwin, Julian Edelman or even Keenan Allen and Michael Thomas to some degree.
In the NFL it also seems that having a high floor is usually more important than a tremendous ceiling and Nabers is looking like a very safe pick, with his amazing route running and good hands and athleticism.
Justin Jefferson also wasnt knocked down because he was projected to be a slot receiver, but because of his athleticism and fears of benefiting from great QB play, rather than his own skillset. He was also seen as WR2 at his own school, to a younger Jamar Chase, who coincidentally, Nabers is being compared to more often than Jefferson, because of their similar build, even though they play quite a bit differently.
I thought the same thing Brett did watching him. He struggles against press. A slot doesn't do the same thing to open things up for others schematically as an X would. It doesn't mean he isn't valuable. But it's like the fact Evans was always better than Godwin, Evans could play big slot as well, but he doesn't have to. Drawing the safeties attention while he beats the boundary corner cause a safety to double him. This makes it easier for Godwin in the slot. Same as Aiyuk and Deebo. Playmaker you scheme open are really cool, but a legit wr1 makes an even bigger impact.
My best friend was a slot corner in college. Didn’t really notice him when he was on the field but definitely noticed when he wasn’t. Super tough position
Comp: Bear
Shut up and take my money! My Seahawks need this guy 😂
As a ravens fan drafting and further developing KHam on the team literally revived our defense to be in the top caliber it is again. We're not far off from DBs going top 10 more commonly. I'm curious to see if college programs continue to evolve and develop DBs more than they do now, with the way college offenses run it may be hard
Nix at 11 would be insane. As a Lions fan, I'd love it. I struggle to see him even as a late first. 24 is old as hell for a first rounder
Pretty sure a few teams love him but those teams have a QB right now.
Age really isn't as big a deal in the NFL. There isn't the same kind of correlation between age and success that you see in the NBA.
Plus a good QB is gonna play until mid-late 30s anyway.
@@michaelahurt Age matters in terms of future projection, not in terms of years you'll have the player (For QB). A player who is 21 still has a lot more years of improvement as opposed to someone 24+ which generally means the player is closer to a finished product which could be a better/worse thing depending on the talent of the player.
@@codyb.3015That argument makes much more sense at other positions, than it does for qb. Other positions you are concerned more with sheer PHYSICAL ability than you are at qb. Qb's are routinely improving throughout their careers, due to the importance of film study. To somehow argue that Nix cant get better beyond 24, completely ignores the fact that a guy like Drew Brees didnt have his first(of twelve) 4k yard seasons until he was 27. His best season came at age 32. Brady was considered little mire than a game manager until he was about 28, and didnt have his first real superstar statistical season until he was 30. Russ Wilson didnt finish in the top 10 in passing yards until he was 28. Big Ben finished in the top 5 in passing yards 3 times. All three were at age 32 or later. Rodgers didnt make his first start until age 25, and he was still far from a finished product. The list goes on and on.
@@codyb.3015 The empirical evidence suggests there is only a very slight correlation toward younger QB's and once you account for sample size error it's basically non-existent.
Plus we know experience *does* correlate with NFL success.
The thing that makes QB unique -- besides the degree to which external factors affect success -- is that you usually don't get time to develop. You have to be good right away or they are drafting your replacement. So having more theoretical potential is kind of irrelevant.
If you can come in and be a quality QB that's all that matters.
How does penix to jj and addison not make sense? 1:59 feel like the way the vikings are built they could have an incredibly lethal passing attack.
Hey Brett i’ve been watching your content for over 4 years now and I’ve started doing analysis specifically geared towards fantasy. I’ve only been able to access college game film from random compilations on youtube. Do you have any tips for getting access to film for someone who has a smaller platform?
This wr class is insane, I’ve been doing every I can to keep up but I swear I hear about another really talented guy every day, the fact that the first round is gonna be like 1/3 wr if not more is insane
okay the first round will be crazy with WRs but we won't see 10-11 go 😭 I'd say 5-7, MAYBE 8 is the likelihood. at most 1/4
"If I was going to give I comp for him I'd comp him to a bear" 😂 never change Brett.
16:25 played and practiced at boundary corner at FIU from 2007-2009. My senior year in the middle of the season my coach moved me inside.......DIFFERENT ANIMAL. Got the hang of it quickly as being a Florida kid we play man since we can walk (which he tried to protect me and others with heavy zone for too long).
Having TY Hilton to practice against allowed me to progress quickly cause they line him in the slot ALOT to protect him from getting bullied by my Jams.
The hard part is switching between DB to C- fill players or D-contain. Basically you have to move like one of the best corners on your team and be strong enough and willing to show up in the run game. I mean you can't be ankle biting, you might have to spill a puller or a TE in motion. You have to strap up the chin strap on play while being able to then run with a guy that has sub 4.4 speed the next snap.
I honestly think it’s the hardest position to play on defense. Maybe the second hardest in the whole sport!
My IDL sleeper pick IMO is McKinnley Jackson, feel like people aren't talking about just how insane his burst is off the snap for his size, great run defender too.
17:52 sounds like Dejean to me
Vikings, Raiders, Broncos, Commanders, and Patriots. How do you rank these teams?
Brett where do you have penix in your qb tier list?
Definitely don’t see the lions going wr high. Resigned DPJ, like to put Amon-Ra outside with Raymond in slot, more Jamo snaps, plus Antione Green got some run to end the year.
Idk why but the idea of Xavier Legette taking that sweet sweet accent to Detroit is hilarious to me 😂
Brett, you're one of my favorite sports content creators. I just really wish you could make something about the Texans now and give us your observations, insights, and basically your view of the current organization, players, and coaches.
I personally have never had such hope and pride for a football team in Houston. Going all the way back to the 90's era Oilers.
I don't know if this team will ever win a Super Bowl but for once in Houston, our football team has a genuine legitimate chance of winning. Like I said though, I and most other Texans fans would really love to hear your take on the team.
Does preferring Maye over Jayden make me racist?
yes
@@TheBrothersBlue Damnnit!
If you prefer Maye because of his race (which I doubt) then yes.
If it's because of his QB style then absolutely not. I also prefer Maye as a passer I'm concerned with running QBs injury risk and sometimes they just can't throw only run like fields. I don't think Daniels will have that issue I just am less concerned about Maye's future.
@@SacClass650It’s racist if you asked that ridiculous question
Lets gooo!! Ride home from work in EU upload time!
Underrated Nickel: Eddie Heckard out of BYU and Weber St. good in coverage both inside and outside, blitzes well, tackles well, etc.
A man of the people
As a Seahawks fan, what was your learning from your take on Stone Forsythe?
I love the hawkeye love
Lol Brett. I too have been on a wine kick
i really like Xavier Legette too, id love if the Bears traded down a few spots for capital and took him to fill out our WR room. Dude seems awesome.
Brett we’re throwing with the Bo Nix love
Damn i missed the question survey thing! Hope you can still take a question here: what do you think the Chargers do at 5? Been seeing Nabers or Bowers as the two main options, not too well versed on this year’s class though
Thank you for the Trent Mcduffie love. He was my fav corner in the draft that year and he went to my chiefs. Bought his jersey early last season
Dude I'm a Pats fan and I was jumping up and down in my seat when he fell to us......and then we traded you the pick and took Cole freaking Strange.
That was the start of my villain arc
@@cmd31220Christian Gonzalez is a stud though
@RyBrown yes but to quote that Old El Paso commercial, "porque no los dos?"
Ryan rehkow is from a family of kickers/punters. Brother Austin kicked in the NFL and XFL for a stint, and also made the longest high school field goal ever. And I believe he will be better than his older brother.
Agreed on overthinking Maye. Dude is locked and loaded top 3 pick.
Saw that Coker is going to be at the local pro day for the Commanders. (Didn't know he was from Sterling VA)
It might be a silly question but for the QB analysis you did on Nix and McCarthy, did you take into account developability or is it just based on who they are as players right now? I think McCarthy really gets his flowers this draft cycle compared to the rest of those tier 3-ish QBS because teams will have a young player (3 years younger than Nix and Penix) whos put a lot on tape and is by all accounts willing to learn. Maybe im a bit out of the loop on player grading, but to me thats something that may not be the most valuable, but is definitely valuable to a team looking for a QB option for the next decade +
Need a 15-20 minute breakdown on good nickel play like the last video on fullbacks
How have I never seen this guys channel? Shit I’ve got some binging to do
1 good day at a practice for the shrine bowl doesn’t mean jack.
My rankings as a former punter:
1. Taylor
2. McNamara
3/4. Rehkow / Browning
4. Hayball
5.
I understand may to Minnesota hype, but I also think may would be perfect in New York. They have Daniel under contract to let him sit a year and Daboll is great at the QB position
I know Justin Fields has a relationship with Mike Tomlin but I don't know why he didn't immediately pick up the phone and call the Vikings the moment Kirk got traded.
Would the Bears have traded him there?
Kirk didn’t get traded but I get what you mean
Because Bears will never help a divisional rival?
@@Dr.Sortospinoit wouldn’t be help💀
@@JohnAC4 lol true. but why risk that Fields becomes your nightmare?
why add the chip on his shoulder when he will play against you?
My highschool coach to me as a 110lb freshman: 17:37
Is it the end of the month already?
Penix Jr reminds me of Warren Moon.
What about Keon Coleman for the lions? Didn’t hear you mention him, he’s a freak of a receiver
The feeling of having an elite nickel in the bag rules. Brian Branch is him
Can we get timestamps for the first day of the draft? Like stamp when you hear the name. That would help with VOD a lot. I totally get not bothering day 2/3.
As a Lions fan, Legette for sure
I’d be shocked as a Vikings fan if we take Bo Nix. There’s been no steam in or out of the Vikings building. No private workouts, barely anybody sent to his pro day, and I haven’t seen one jersey swap on twitter. Seems like Nix isn’t even on their radar and I don’t blame them.
Brett what are we going to do when a nfl team decides to give you a job. Your amazing
People are overthinking Drake Maye for exactly the reasons you stated. Should the Commanders or Patriots go with a QB who needs time to develop and master the fundamentals? Both teams have brand new coaching staffs and although Dan Quinn has been a HC before, he didn't have to develop a QB in Atlanta.
Sooo ur thoughts on the Diggs trade lol?
I agree with Brett. I think Bo Nix is right there with JJ as a draft prospect! I’m also fairly high on Penix despite having injury and durability concerns
JJ MCARTHY is just nolan/singletary era 49ers alex smith
I like nix more
Hot takes on punters is 100% why I'm here.
Gonna guess bo nix is gonna be the best qb out of this draft just because he’ll fall to a team that has a better roster and he has that style of play where he’s a mobile qb but uses his legs to open up the passing game as opposed to the running game
Christian Boyd is so good for his size he’s got that thing that those good DLS have
Have you looked at Xavier Weaver
Seriously, what is up with last year's Jets TE Zack Kuntz? He runs just as fast as Brock Bowman, killed the rest of the combine, has one year of NFL camp body experience, and is 4 inches taller. What did I miss? He should be in the TE mix, no?
Is there a Position/School combination where you say „Yeah, he’ll probably be good“ or „He‘ll probably not be all that great“?
Iowa TEs are always reliable, but don't draft USC quarterbacks
Taron johnson for 3y 10 mil might be the best value on the bills, the dude can have a case for most important player on the bills defense making half the money of outside corners, sometime baffles me how much lower the nickel market is
Make sure you drop Brett a like!
It's bewildering to me that people are high at all on Nix and McCarthy.
But aside from that, the most bewildering thing to me in this Draft is the disrespect to Kool-Aid McKinstrey. He's an elite corner, easily a top three corner at Bama under Saban. Yet, seemingly out of nowhere, as an Alabama fan, everyone forgot about him and kept saying that Arnold was better when I thought he needed to stay another season due to being too raw. I just hope he goes to a great coaching staff so he can continue to develop.
Holy shit my brother played basketball with jalen coker! dude was an absolute beast on the court as well, super cool guy
As a BYU fan, Rekhow has been the most consistent part of this team the last 2 years, and it’s true that BYU did him no favors in coverage
They always say lsu wrs are slots until they move outside and get all pro selections
Why is it that so many people are down on maye? Seems he was pushing for best QBs of the class, according to some scouts/media personnel, but now there’s a lot of people calling him a project QB, and they’re ranking him below JJ
We found gold with Brian branch
Nobody had JJ in the first round until a few scouts started saying he’s going to go there. After that, all of the social media football ppl started changing up their rankings even though they had already watched all of the film. The shit is weird to me
what's your opinion on leonard taylor and his potenial?
Has big bust potential...his tape is bad, then again to his credit, they played him out of position at nose. I'd be wary with him.
Super-athletic wideout from a small lower-level school? Maybe not another Randy Moss but guys can come from anywhere
Moss was an elite high school recruit that was pretty much forced to a small school due to an off the field controversy and was also a first round pick
