Daniel McCullers

Who do you got?

Strong, silent, uh, I'm going to go Dan McCullers.

Oh, wow.

Well, he's also giant, too.

See, so yeah, I mean, that's a, that's a big dude.

All right.

So Dan McCullers, that's a good one.

I still think Darnell Darnell.

Um, he still has some bad reps.

I, I mean, like some of those gigantic people, and this is a terrible comparison because he's way better than this guy, but Dale and I kinda used to make fol- fun of McCullers.

You used to say, [laughs] "How long is Dan McCullers gonna be on a scholarship?"

Right.

'Cause he'd ha- One out of 10 reps, he would just come out of his stance low and an unblockable force, take a really good center, and brr, you know, and throw him away.

And of- as you can imagine, in the run game, he gets doubled a fair amount, and he ends up pretty far downfield sometimes or on his back, you know.

But less than last year, and he definitely has ...

You know, he is an interesting player, right? Because he went from an offense that barely asked him to pass protect for real, because most of the time he was a primary option in the passing game last year.

Like, th- that kind...

That's, that's a comp that you can look at and say, "You're trying to get the benefits here from him that you never got from guys..." L- Dan McCullers was kinda like that, too.

[laughs] Yes.

You know, another late round defensive lineman, let's get valuable snaps out of this guy, even if it's just 10 a game.

I'm all about that.

And he also says, "Benton s- plays like a small Dan McCullers."

[laughs]

I'm having a hard time picturing a small Dan McCullers, but I think he's right.

[laughs] Yes.

I, I don't even know, I don't even know if it's right or wrong 'cause I can't picture it, but it sounds-
