 I'm a little nervous, I'm a little nervous because we are sitting next to one of the biggest superstars in this NFL draft, ready to take the journey from college to the bigs from the Ohio State, which is already the big stage, but you got the big stage behind you, Jackson Smith and Jigba, welcome. Thank you, thanks for having me. How are you feeling? I feel great, I feel great. Bless, today's the big day, so we'll see what happens. How are you handling it? Like what's your mentality when you woke up this morning? Yeah, I was going through it a little bit last night, just it all kind of suck in on me last night, but I'm handling as best as I can, I'm just happy to be here, excited for the opportunity, excited to walk across that stage tonight. It was really cool to watch you walk up the stairs because you just, the first time you saw this spectacle and an amazing host city in Kansas City, the fountain, this, what are your feelings looking at this? It's beautiful, it's beautiful. We got beautiful weather, beautiful stage, I mean, they really done it up here in Kansas City, so I'm happy to be a part of it. Garrett Wilson, let's just get right into it. Friend of the show, we love him, you obviously played with him, Chris Olave, he says, you're better than him, you're better than Olave. This is the defending offensive rookie of the year. No, let's not pretend you're not confident, don't be humble all of a sudden. No, I definitely appreciate those words, but those guys are in the league doing it right now and I'm just trying to chase those guys, but I always appreciate Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave and the guys before me that have done it, so I wouldn't be here without them, so I mean that means a lot for them to say that. What have they told you about the NFL? What advice have they given you on handling yourself even tonight? Right, I mean they just told me to be myself and they know I'm a hard worker and I want to be great, so just if I keep my head on straight and stay present, then good thing to happen. I think you're the first wide receiver off the board tonight and it's well deserved. Now there was some talk about your availability, what do you want to say about that? I'm available now. I'm available tonight. Yeah, but I'm excited for the opportunity, happy to be here. Thanks for everything. How are you able to sort of stay present in this moment today, is there something? I got family around me, so you know. Who's here tonight? We got brother, mom, dad, grandparents, everybody. We got the whole family here. We're just having a good time, just trying to enjoy it. Had some dinner last night and definitely gonna have some fun today, What are you wearing? You're gonna have to wait and see. Did you get styled? Did you pick it yourself? Give me some details. Oh man, Hugo Boss took me up with the nice little suit, so yeah, we're gonna come in fresh today. Amazing, I asked you how you would talk to the commissioner, you said, you would potentially pick him up? Oh yeah, yeah, I mean. I told you he's a big boy, now you just met him. I didn't know how big you was, I mean. But now we're gonna get our little handshake in in a big bear hut. Has anything been surprising about this experience? Not even just coming to Kansas City, just the whole draft process, the ups, the downs? Yeah, most definitely. Definitely a lot of ups and downs, a lot of traveling, a lot of flights and early mornings, but it's a part of the process. It's something I've been dreaming and waiting on and I'm just happiest here and the happiest almost over. Let's talk about CJ Strap because we're talking about lots of ups and downs. This poor CJ Strap, right? He's gonna go high as two, now if he's slipping down draft or blah, blah, blah, blah, talk to, it takes this much to maybe move a guy up or down. Talk to everybody out there and tell them about CJ Strap and what kind of quarterback he'll be in the NFL. CJ Strap's gonna be a great, I mean besides the arm talent, besides all that, he's always the smartest guy on the field and playing with him and his leadership and he knows how to lead a team and he knows how to get things done and it was an awesome plan with him at the Ohio State University and hopefully one day we'll link back up. What are you making of these people saying things, these rumors, it's like. It's funny, we laugh at it. Really? Good. Yeah, we laugh at it because we all know CJ and he's a smart kid, he's a good kid and he just loves to play ball and he's good at it so whatever team picks him, it's gonna be lucky to have him. He'll be doing it on the NFL level, we love this. Now here's what I found out. Your brother got called up to the Bigs, right? So give him a shout out. This is Kanan Smith and Jigba, right? Yes, sir. You two are. Yes, sir, I'd rather be called sir than man, trust me. Okay, so talk to me about that. What was it like, because he's playing like today after the show? Yeah, he is. It's been awesome, I mean. He can't be here though, huh? Yeah, no, he actually, he's gonna fly in today. Oh, really? Yeah, he'll be on stage with me, so. After the game, he's gonna fly, where is he? He's. LA maybe? Yeah, no, yeah, I don't know where he's at. He's everywhere. But yeah, just super excited for him, grew up with him, obviously. And, you know, for us to be living out our dreams, it's truly, it's truly great. And I've seen all the hard work he put in and my whole family. And, you know, for that to carry on for me, and for me to be at the highest level in my sport now, it's just awesome and a dream, you know, between the both of us. You're the little brother. What's something you're better than him at? Cause I can imagine you two are, you're two insanely athletic kids. What are you better, what can you get him at? I would say I'm the more athletic one. You could say that. You could say I could, I would say that. Listen, we're full of, the NFL's got the Kelsey's, they've got the, you know, the Gronk family. This is like the new thing, the Smith and Jigba boys are taking over this sports world. Taking over, taking over, taking over. One step at a time. We'd love to see it. Okay, I'm trying to think of what else people, anything else you want to talk about? I'm just excited. You just chill it. I'm chilling, I'm excited. How are you still like this, is my question. I just try to stay even cute, I don't like to get up and down. Rich Paul was more nervous than you. You were just like this. Yeah, got to. I'm just, I'm just ready for the night. Even kill. Yeah. Yeah. So that's on potentially joining Chris Olavade in New Orleans or Garrett Wilson in New York? I mean, I'll be great. Garrett Wilson in New York, that'll be pretty cool if they're a new quarterback. Yeah, man. Aaron Rogers, don't slinging it around. Derek Carr too, out in New Orleans. I mean, wherever I go, I'm, you know, I'll be happy with and, you know. Is that true? Is there, I'm not gonna tell, don't tell me, but is there a team that you're like, oh good. Don't take me. Don't tell me what it is. You'd be happy with any of the 32. Any of the 32, whoever calls me, you know, the earliest, you know, I'll be happy, whoever that is. What is your superpower on the field? Like, what are you known for? What is the one thing that you want? NFL fans who maybe don't, didn't watch you ball out in college? I would say my route running, my creativity, you know, my spatial awareness and just being a reliable target, you know. CJ knows, you know, I'm working, I'm trying to get open and I'm gonna catch the ball. You know, a chain mover, I would like to say. A chain mover, hopefully on an NFL team near you. Who's with you today? Give a shout out to all your, your whole team. We got my Excel team. Hi guys, I think your Excel team is here. We got Parker, Kelly, and Mike. We got Amazing. Always paying care of me. Amazing, we love it. Are you gonna cry tonight? What kind of a, are you a crier? Oh, I don't know what's gonna happen. You don't? I don't know what's gonna happen. I wouldn't say I'm a crier though, but I've never been drafted. You've never been drafted. Okay, if there was one person that would get you to be emotional, is it more your brother, mom? Yeah, my brother. Your brother would make you cry? Maybe. Kanan, don't do it, and good luck to him at playing today. In a little bit, we will let you go. You're so excited for you. Do not forget me when you take that trophy from Garrett Wilson as the offensive rookie of the year. I'm expecting good things. Thank you so much. Okay, enjoy every minute. Appreciate it. You'll be back on up in Adams. Devon Witherspoon is joining the show. Rich Paul, Chase Young, Will Leviss, Mayo Coffee, what's happening? We'll be back after this. And CJ Stroud is laughing at your stupid rumors.
