Texans, Eagles, Bengals, Packers, Lions among best young NFL cores | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
https://www.youtube.com/NFLonNBC
here’s something that might not be as easy as other drafts have been in the past the best young offensive cores in the NFL all positions well all positions that fantasy football people care about and that are the fun positions to talk about running back receiver tight end quarterback forget about the offensive lines the guys who make it go best young groups go well I I mean I’m going with the Eagles right off the bat I mean you you know my thoughts on that crew there I mean Jaylen Herz is a top 10 quarterback you hate Jaylen Herz well I know I know you hate Jaylen Herz that’s what they tell me you hate him how could you pick him first I’m a horrible person I think he’s a top 10 quarterback how dare I say he’s one of the 10 best in the world that’s something he does I know I’m a hater that’s just the way it is uh but no yeah Jaylen Herz is damn good I know that right do I think he’s the best quarterback in the league no that’s when I start to go wait you’re crazy okay but that that’s what I’m talking about he’s still damn good that that receiver Duo as we talked about I mean I’m taking them over anybody you know yeah I think I am I as I said that I was like wait I didn’t really think about that statement but I I think I am I love AJ Brown and Devonte Smith right saquan is only 27 that’s older for a running back but yeah and of course you add Dallas God to that group yeah I’m I’m taking the Eagles yeah and look um there are other groups out there that tempt me but their quarterback backs are unproven at the NFL level right so let’s go with the guy who’s got one year in and he’s extremely proven we just talked about in last segment CJ Stout and the Texans with Nico Collins at 25 with tank Dell at 24 with Joe Mixon who’s only 27 now I know that that’s you know getting close to Social Security age for running backs but still you look at what they have and what they’ve done what they did last year and what they’ve done this off season and CJ Stout entering Year too that to me is the most potent nucleus of young talent in the NFL at the offensive skill position and Damen Pierce let’s not forget about him right I mean he was the guy that well he’s kind of become forgotten man I know right right I know he’s good though and I would expect that they kind of share the load there this year but yeah you know I’m with you there Texans were certainly on my short list 100% the next one I I got to go with the Bengals I mean I do I mean it’s first off it’s Joe burrow he’s one of the best quarterbacks in football period I mean we know that it’s definitely top five quarterback Jamar Chase is a definite top three receiver Higgins is you know up there with anybody as far as being the best Robin to somebody’s Batman in football I know they got Zach Moss a running back I’m even more excited about Chase Brown second straight day Robin’s been mentioned different context yesterday know great Scotts Batman I’m on a roll with that one uh yeah but then that’s not what you said yesterday I know that’s okay uh but yeah Zach boss they got Chase Brown who I think will ultimately be the starter there who you know helped and why they got rid of Mixon so yeah I I like that young nucleus how can you not but that quarterback certainly gives him a bump I’m tempted to go with unproven quarterbacks but I’m still not going to do it because the guy we just talked about you look at Jordan love you look at Josh Jacobs who’s only 26 lot of wear and tear on those tires for Josh Jacobs but he’s only 26 you got Christian Watson and Romeo dos you got something there you got something special especially because love second half of the Year became the guy that helped us all understand why they were willing to throw the team into turmoil trading up in 2020 round one to get love when Aaron Rogers was trying to enjoy a nice glass tequila and not stress over whether or not he’d get to dictate the terms of his departure from the Packers yeah no I I I was hoping you wouldn’t go there that that because I wanted to take Green Bay yeah Green Bay you know if Christian Watson you know can keep his hamstring healthy he’s going to be a superstar there’s nobody that can run with him in football dos is really damn good like you talk about Davian Wicks right he another good one the running back the two young tight ends man Green Bay yeah I’m with you there good pick for sure uh what did I want to do with my last one here damn I I had my team set up here and I’m I’m choking you’re going to run out of time you’re going to pull a Minnesota Vikings I’m choking on well you kind of threw me off there but I think the next one I’m going to go with here is the Detroit Lions I’m going to go with the Detroit Lions now I know gof doesn’t CL classify but St Brown of course phenomenal uh Gibbs Jamir Gibbs I think on a trajectory to be one of the best running backs in football Jameson Williams this is the year watch out this is it right Jameson Williams at the end of the year came on for Detroit we saw the reverse he had in the NFC Championship Game the 49ers are the fastest defense in football he was like go go Rockets up my ass I’ll see you later in the end zone so yeah I like that group there did I say leaport I hope so because he’s damn good too he’s already one of the best tight end in football all right good all right so for my last pick I’m G to go with an unproven quarterback now I thought about the Falcons because the old man of the group is Michael penck Jr in 24 and he’s never taken a snap they got bejan Robinson Drake London and Kyle pittz all under the age of 24 but I’m going to go with the Vikings blow the horn because even though JJ McCarthy is completely unproven what do you really have to do when you’ve got Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison what do you really have to do to I mean I remember the Heyday of the the Vikings offense in the late 90s with Randy Moss Chris Carter and Jake Reed anybody could have just thrown the ball to those guys and I feel like that’s kind of what the Vikings have going now with a brand new quarterback top 10 pick but you got Jefferson and you got Addison and T.J Hawkinson has got to get healthy from the tour ACL he suffered late in the 2023 season but I feel like the Vikings can be right there right there with the best young offensive Talent hi it’s Mike Florio thanks for

Texans got so many weapons. Props to their GM can’t get much better on paper. Still have to show it on the field of course but on paper not too many teams look better
Of course the cardinals aren’t on here. Kyler 26, MHJ 21, PJJ 22, McBride 24
Lions #1 EASY
Dont really understand how this is even a debate. Lions and its really not close. One of, if not the best young tackle in the league, one of the best recievers in the league in amon ra, all pro rookie tight end in sam laporta, jahmyr gibbs over 1k scrimmage yards, hutch, arnold, branch. I mean come on now
WHODEY 🐅🐅
Of course florio goes with the vikings
And they missed penei sewell probably the best tackle In the game
All this talent on the eagles and they flamed out in the playoffs last season in embarrassing fashion lol
Hahaha Mike always against the lions. Funny. It is noticable you hate the lions
Lol no bears is laughable. Unreal hate for Chicago as always. Just wait man
Lions had many offensive players in pff top 25 under 25.
Can't wait till the Lions crush all these teams they are talking about. Do more homework guys before u hit record. #1 O line, Top 10 QB, 2 Top 15 RBs, Top 4 WR plus another up and comer in jamo, Top 5 TE. Crazy Versatility across the board plus a TOP 3 OC.
Casual Jayden Reed snub 😂
Vikings?!?! 😂 Florio is such a putz
that boy love them vikings lol look at his face when chris mentioned the lions lol
I was like KC has the youngest team. Then he mentioned fantasy football….blat. that rat florio
Colts should be on here. Top 10 last season offensive and should be better.
Love over Goff every day
Texans have 3 All-Pros, the most recent Offensive & Defensive Rookies of the Year and a bunch of Pro-bowlers on this roster. Add in Player Coach DeMeco Ryans and newest league Superstar QB Stroud this team is the most exciting.
I guess the lions especially if they do well again- we will see
How Chris didn't laugh right in his stupid face when Florio said Minn is amazing and needs to be studied.
Chris you said no one in the NFL can run with Christian Watson. That’s bullshit. The Bengals have a CB named DJ Turner he played for Michigan. Remember he was in your top 5 in 2023 I think you had him at number 2 or 3. 2 I think it was. Anyway that kid can run with literally anyone in football. He can run with Tyrek Hill. He can run faster than Tyrek Hill. 4.26 speed. Watson ran 4.36 which is really really fast especially for a guy who is 6’4’’ 208. But Turner can run with anyone in the NFL. Only that Worthy kid the Chiefs just drafted is faster. Tyrek Hill has never even been the fastest guy in the NFL. When he came into the league like 9 years ago he ran 4.29. Then the next year the Bengals drafted John Ross 4.22. Then in 2019 Hollywood Brown was drafted 4.28. In 2020 here comes Henry Ruggs 4.26. And in 2022 Tyquan Thornton 4.28.
Jameson Williams is 6’2’’ 180 lbs. Jesus he is thin! Also he has been I. The league for 2 years he was the 12th overall pick and he has 25 total catches, 395 yards, 3 TD’s, 69 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD. So Chris is right y’all be very afraid of this guy! Yea I know he tore his ACL his senior year or at the end of it. He didn’t see action until week 13. And I know he was suspended for the first 6 games last year but 25 catches 395 yards and 3 td’s?
It’s the Eagles and it’s not close. The qualifier is young cores, and he said they’re only talking about offensive skill positions and QB. Jalen hurts, AJ Brown, Devonta Smith, Dallas Goedert and Saquan Barkley. In the Past 2 years, Hurts and AJ Brown have been all-pro. Hurts finished 2nd in MVP voting, they made the Super Bowl. Smith has been the best 2nd receiver in the league. Saquan had top 5 talent and will be running behind an actual competent and still top 5 O-line. No other young core has those things
Simms being INCAPABLE of waiting for someone else to finish is starting to get on my nerves again.
DA BEARS !!!! DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze….Did I forget to mention Caleb Williams?
What no CHIEFS!!! Are you insane??? Mahommes, Kelce, Rice, Hollywood and Worthy???? C'Mon man!!!
hahahaha Floria says nothing about the Lions, he REALLY wants them to fade away. Just not going to happen.
Chris takes zero accountability for saying Jalen Hurts was the 40th best qb in the league 3 years ago, before he went on an MVP run and went to the Superbowl.
