and the volume of picks they have, I would think that if there's someone that monk in lights, I think that they might take them, you know, with all those third-fourth fifth-round picks, that's a lot. So it gives them the opportunity to take to Aller, Nusmire, or whoever, you know, whoever that they feel like they get. And they proved last year that they like getting what they think is, you know, depressed asset. They like getting what they think is value with the should horse handers pick. So that would not surprise me, but I only need you. You have two super young quarterbacks, and you guys have to tell me that it seems like there's a lot of, a lot of steam coming out of Cleveland about to show them off and having a real shot to be the quarterback. Ross Tucker NFL analyst in the previous segment there, we'll react to that in just a moment here, but the, the Raptors have said, Immunial quickly will not be available for the remainder of the team's first round playoffs series against the Cavs. He re-injured his hamstring as he was going through the rehabilitation process. So that is a, I guess you would say a positive development from the
Cavs set of things. We'll have more on that as the show goes on. I have a sinking suspicion that part of the reason the Browns did this trade down to pick up an extra third-round pick is because I think they're going to take a quarterback tonight. I don't know if it's pick 39, and that's why they're one of the teams rumored to be trying to trade up. I don't know if it's going to be pick 70 or 74. I have felt this entire, I don't think it's true, Aller, because I think true Aller is what you, I did more of a project than not. More like a fifth-round guy. No, I actually think true. We'll go tonight, but I do or even maybe maybe four last year, everyone kind of decided unless you were doing Gabriel, I think, you know, Quen yours, and it was like a, there was like that big gap in between. That's why we had the fall with Chador that way, and it's like if they didn't want to take them in the third, the fourth was out of the equation, and so then they'd move to the fifth for people. But I think it's going to be Carson Beck. I think there's the personal ties to Munkin. I think Carson Beck is as finished of a product as you're going to get having played,
you know, what, three seasons of college football. I mean, I get it being a starter for three seasons. So are they moving up to jump the Cardinals? The Cardinals pick at 34, and Carson Beck would be a rumored spot for him there. I could see that. Yes. Now I, I, everywhere that I've seen has Carson as a third-round pick. That doesn't mean that's where he's going to go, but I mean, I just pulled it from Matt Miller and his thing today. Like he had a 2026 mock draft rounds two to three predictions, 34 overall Arizona Cardinals, Carson Beck. But yes, I do think the Browns will take a quarterback today. And I think it is going to be Carson Beck. What's fascinating about that is that if it is another Munkin move, and that's it, the double M, Munkin move, it's interesting. Munkin, the maximizer move. Conceptial is clearly a Munkin decision, right? We've connected the Z-flowers dots. That's obvious. It's there. It exists. He feels like you can do something with it. If they give him the 33rd pick or whatever it ends up being, if you trade, if you go ahead and move up in order to take Carson Beck, that is a lot of confidence that they're giving in one Munkin that they really
with the exception of Dylan Gabriel did not seem like they showed towards Kevin Savansky.
