Per 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 4: Paul's weekly request. Here on the Cardinals Red Sea Report, 17 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 4: I do, though, gentlemen, want to throw out a couple 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 4: of numbers, and seventy five four as in four weeks 19 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 4: until training camp and seventy five Paul, as in seventy 20 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 4: five days until you make your first road trip. Week 21 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 4: one at Washington and knock on wood here the weather 22 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 4: will be nice in our nation's capital. 23 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 5: Hey, it's never too early to talk about your Week 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 5: one opponent. Don't think that the Cardinals' new coaching staff 25 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 5: isn't breaking down Washington Commander's film and probably wondering what 26 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 5: is Eric B Enemy's offense gonna look like? Exactly, because 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 5: nothing vexes and frustrates a coaching staff more in the 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 5: NFL than the unknown. And I was just reading about 29 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 5: Eric Enemy and what he's been doing in Washington. Everyone's 30 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 5: wondering what's he got in store. And he's gonna try 31 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 5: and get the most out of Terry McLaurin and John 32 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 5: Dotson and Curtis Samuel and then that run game and 33 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 5: the old line might be better than they think. So, Paul, 34 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 5: and you think there's gonna be a new owner in place, yep, 35 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 5: because they're gonna meet later in July and probably finalize 36 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 5: that that vibe will be lit in DC. 37 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 4: And the question on who might be the quarterback for 38 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 4: that Week one game not only for the Cardinals but 39 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 4: for the Commanders as well. But here we are in 40 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 4: late June, Kyle and Paul's already talking about Week one. 41 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 4: As a player, when did you first focus on Week one? 42 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 4: I'm guessing it was nuts in late June. 43 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 6: No, it's typically you know, through the summer, through the workouts, 44 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 6: through OTA's mini camps, your day to day you're just 45 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 6: trying to digest everything they're throwing at you. You're trying 46 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 6: to make sure you do everything you can to prepare 47 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 6: your body for the rigors of not only you know, 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 6: the June camps and the workouts here, but you've got 49 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 6: to have a very specific plan about how to rest 50 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 6: in July and how to ramp up properly. You know. 51 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 6: I just remember it seems like every single coach at 52 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 6: the end of June, when they're saying, you know, they're goodbyes, 53 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 6: and after all of your offseason work is completed, you know, 54 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 6: their points of emphasis are, don't get too far away 55 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 6: from the game. You know, take some time, spend some 56 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 6: time with your family, get everything in order so that 57 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 6: you don't have to worry about it when training camp starts, 58 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 6: because when we go, it's time to go. You know, 59 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 6: make sure that you're in shape. Don't use training camp 60 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 6: to get in shape. Be in shape so that we're 61 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 6: ready to roll from the beginning, and you know, keep 62 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 6: in the back of your mind, keep coming back to it. 63 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 6: Keep thinking about what we've installed, the things that we've 64 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 6: worked on, the you know, the tweaks we've done to 65 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 6: your techniques, and keep working on those so that we're 66 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 6: not you don't. You know, it's like summer vacation from school. 67 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 6: Like you leave school, you don't think about school until 68 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 6: it starts up again. You can't do that in football. 69 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 6: You've got to stay on top of your game. It 70 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 6: is truly a year round calendar, and you need to 71 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 6: use this opportunity to take care of any bumps and bruises, 72 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 6: take care of any knicks. But you need to be 73 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 6: ready to go when training camp starts. 74 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 5: What a teachers call it the summer brain drain among students. 75 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 4: So you can't have that. 76 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 5: You can't have those mental mistakes going in if you're 77 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 5: competing for a job. By the way, since you guys 78 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 5: look like you need a Holy Conner only stat and 79 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 5: Greelea is coming out of the gates with a few numbers. 80 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 5: Do you know if Jacoby Brissett beats out Sam Howell, 81 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 5: their fifth round pick last year, who got all of 82 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 5: one start, do you how many starting quarterbacks that will 83 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 5: be for Terry McLaurin in his four years ago ahead 84 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 5: Craig Graylow ten eleven eleven. It's currently ten, so Jo 85 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 5: Kobe Burssett would be his eleven starting quarterback in four seasons. 86 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 7: Yikes. 87 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a problem. Reminds us of the I wouldn't 88 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 4: say the issues, but what Larry Fitzgerald dealt with for 89 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 4: a number of years when it was a revolving door 90 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 4: for a period of time as far as who was 91 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 4: the quarterback of the Arizona Cardinals. But yeah, this is 92 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 4: the offseason. Players need to get away, the front office 93 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 4: needs to get away. But I'm guessing, gentlemen that GM 94 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 4: MONTI Austin Ford is still looking at his own roster 95 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 4: and looking at what might still be available. There are 96 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 4: three roster spots available Cardinals. Do they fill those spots 97 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 4: going into training camp? Wait until training camp starts. We 98 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 4: do know this though, that building depth on this roster 99 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,559 Speaker 4: is priority number one. Is something that's where Austin fort 100 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 4: was previously the Tennessee Titans. Mike Keith, Titans play by 101 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 4: play voice, a guest of The Big Red Rage, talked 102 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 4: about what he the leaves Austin Ford will do with 103 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 4: this Cardinals roster. 104 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 3: I think that's what Mani has helped do well here 105 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 3: in his time about how you're going to piece together 106 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 3: not just the one through ten. I think a lot 107 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 3: of us could get the one through ten. It's the 108 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 3: eleven through sixty nine counting the practice squad that's really 109 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 3: the trick. And that's where I think that Austin for 110 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: training and what he's going to get across the staff 111 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 3: is going to show up. I think the Cardinals will 112 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 3: be a much deeper team in terms of players that 113 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: can help them over a period of time. 114 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 4: Three open roster spots, not all three will be filled 115 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 4: at one time. I'm guessing that they'll bring in and 116 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,239 Speaker 4: also subtracts. But Kyle, as you look at this roster 117 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 4: or what we've been think might happen this coming season, 118 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 4: are there some positions that you think there might be 119 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 4: a move prior to or during training camp to maybe 120 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 4: help out as far as a veteran presence and say, oh, 121 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 4: I don't know, the running back room, defensive line, cornerback room. 122 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 6: I'd say definitely, defensive line. We're still looking. You know, 123 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 6: we're hopeful with the names we have now that some 124 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 6: players will be able to step up and get production. 125 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 6: But we don't know for sure. We don't know if 126 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 6: Zavan Collins can develop into a pass rusher coming off 127 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 6: the edge. We don't know if Dennis Gardett can return 128 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 6: to the form he had prior to his injury. We 129 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 6: don't know if bj Ojilari can do the things that 130 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 6: he did in college. All of these things we're kind 131 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 6: of waiting to see. It would be nice to know. 132 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 6: I mean, even if it's a guy that you know 133 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 6: several times has gotten six to eight sacks, just to 134 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 6: have a guy that can provide that pressure, that can 135 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 6: get after the quarterback, get him off his spot so 136 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 6: that there's not so much pressure on the back end 137 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 6: on our cornerbacks and safeties and even linebackers and coverage. 138 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 6: So to me, I think that's the most important position 139 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 6: to show up, you know, just talking about filling out 140 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 6: the back end of this roster. Really, there's no fan 141 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 6: base that understands how imp it is more than the 142 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 6: Cardinals dealing with what we dealt with last year with 143 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 6: players in and out of the lineup, and the injuries 144 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 6: and constantly shuffling our offensive line week to week, having 145 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 6: no continuity. Look, you need depth. You need depth on 146 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 6: the defensive line. You need depth on the offensive line. 147 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 6: You certainly need depth at cornerback. And also montiasa Ford 148 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 6: understands this. I remember looking at all the injuries the 149 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 6: Cardinals were going through last year and comparing it to 150 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 6: what the Tennessee Titans went through in twenty twenty one. 151 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 6: They set an NFL record for number of players, different 152 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 6: players to start a game, number of different players to 153 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 6: play in a game. And so mantiasa Ford has had 154 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 6: to deal with the rigors of a seventeen game season, 155 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 6: deal with injuries, deal with guys in and out of 156 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 6: the lineup, and he understands how vitally important the back 157 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 6: end of the roster is because those guys aren't just 158 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 6: there to develop. Those guys will be needed at some 159 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 6: point throughout the course of a season. 160 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 4: To that point, Kyle, last season the Cardinals used a 161 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 4: franchise record eighty three different players. They had eighteen players 162 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 4: on ire, eleven of were starters. So you talk about depth, Yeah, 163 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 4: you need depth, depth at every single position. GM Manti 164 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 4: Austin for talking about looking to improve the depth on 165 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 4: this roster. 166 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,679 Speaker 8: I think adding competition to everywhere on the roster always 167 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 8: makes sense. We're going to always look to improve the 168 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 8: depth and the competition of our on our team because 169 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 8: that's just going to push all all of our players 170 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 8: to get better. And so that's something we're going to 171 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 8: look at at every position. 172 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: And O Paul, you've focused more on the defensive side 173 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 4: when you talk about where this team probably needs some help. 174 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 4: I mean, there's great numbers on the D line, ten 175 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 4: twelve cornerbacks, but it's not the numbers, it's the quality. 176 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 4: And do you know what you have within those ten 177 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 4: D linemen and twelve cornerbacks? And I'm not dismissing the 178 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,239 Speaker 4: importance of an L. J. Collier or a Carlos Watkins 179 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 4: who might be vital parts of your D line rotation. 180 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 4: And obviously Kaisier White appears to be a heck of 181 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 4: an addition. Veteran free agency yell to Froholt, But my 182 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 4: eye really is on this draft class. If these rookie 183 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 4: draft picks can produce like the rookie GM has so far, 184 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 4: it'll be a home run. Honestly, it pains me to 185 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 4: say this and cite them as an example, but this 186 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 4: time a year ago, on all last offseason, my three 187 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 4: favorite words last place Seahawks and what happened. They co 188 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 4: rushed last year's draft class, got two starting offensive tackles. 189 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 4: They got a Pro Bowl corner in the fifth round. 190 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 4: They got the second best running back in the division, 191 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 4: Kenneth Walker, although James Connor might have something to say 192 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 4: about that. This year, they got a starting nickel corner, 193 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 4: they got an edge rotation guy boy A Mafe, and 194 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 4: then they put together a heck of a draft class. 195 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 4: From all appearances this year. That's exactly what Manti asin 196 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 4: Fort needs to do the next few seasons, starting this year. 197 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 4: That's your quickest path, in my opinion, to turn around 198 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 4: the future of any franchise. Nine players draft and you 199 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: look at the number one overall pick within this draft class, 200 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 4: Paris Johnson Junior. We expect him to be the starting 201 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 4: right tackle. And then you brought up Kyle Bjojlari. We 202 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 4: seen him on the field. One he's yet to sign, 203 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 4: which I don't think is a big deal at all, 204 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 4: and then two he's been dealing with an issue we 205 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 4: think was a hamstring issue that was part of the 206 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 4: pre Combine pre draft process. But those two right off 207 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 4: the bat. A need at tackle and then at edge 208 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 4: rusher specifically, how much Canojulari help in that room. 209 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's going to be a huge And to piggyback 210 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 6: off of what Paul was talking about, I completely agree. 211 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 6: I think look, one of the failures of the previous 212 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 6: staff was the development of rookies, getting rookies on the field. 213 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 6: I mean, we were almost two thirds of the way 214 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 6: through the season last year and we had hardly seen 215 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 6: any of our rookies make an impact on the football field. Now, 216 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 6: when they got an opportunity late in the season, several 217 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 6: of those players stepped up and showed that they had arrived, 218 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 6: that they could contribute, and that they could be playmakers. 219 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 6: And there was always a trust issue in the past 220 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 6: where you know, he's not getting in practice, doesn't understand 221 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 6: the concepts. When he gets it, he'll get on the field. 222 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 6: Whereas you hear Jonathan Gannon come in, you hear this 223 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 6: coaching staff where they talk about it's on the coaches 224 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 6: to figure out how to develop these players. Their job 225 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 6: is development, development, development, getting them better, getting them on 226 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 6: the field. And in the in the past, and I 227 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 6: get this, it's it's the mentality of being a professional, 228 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 6: like you've got to learn it. It's on you. Everything's 229 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 6: on your plate. You've got to dive into your playbook. 230 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 6: But if a player is not understanding it, you've got 231 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 6: to come at them from a different direction. You've got 232 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 6: to try to teach it a different way. You've got 233 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 6: to walk through more. You've got to spend more time 234 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 6: in the film room. You can't just say, hey, he's 235 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 6: a rookie, he's too young, he's too inexperienced, he doesn't 236 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 6: get it. We can't use him. We in today's NFL, 237 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 6: you need your rookies to step in and help, particularly 238 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 6: not I guess, not only when there's injuries, but you 239 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 6: know they were drafted for a reason. This scouting staff, 240 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 6: this scouting department, mantiasa Fort they saw things on tape. 241 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 6: This coaching staff, they saw thing on tape that could 242 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 6: help this team now. And so this coaching staff has 243 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 6: taken it upon themselves to figure out a way to 244 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 6: make them a part of the team, to help help 245 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 6: them to move take steps forward so that they can 246 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 6: help this team on Sundays in the fall. 247 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 5: I think this new staff has been much more proactive 248 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 5: in accelerating the learning curve for the rookie class. The 249 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 5: last two guests that we've had on the big red rage. 250 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 5: Kyle Soley the last one. I mentioned to him, Hey, 251 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 5: as the head coach of the coaching staff, have they 252 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 5: been holding you accountable in these team meetings? 253 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 4: And his eyes widen. He said absolutely. 254 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 5: Coach Gannon got me the other day, called on me 255 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 5: out of nowhere, expecting me to know something in a 256 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 5: check and what do I do in this situation? And 257 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 5: he said, I partially got it right, and I had 258 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 5: to learn from that moment. Keanta Ingram said he'd been 259 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 5: held accountable several times zab and Collins his famous story. 260 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 5: So I just think that, you know what, if you 261 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 5: ramp up the expectations on some of these young guys, 262 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 5: it's funny how they might meet those expectations and be 263 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 5: ready to go earlier in their rookie careers. 264 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 4: You can make a strong case for every one of 265 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 4: those nine players drafted in April to have contributions and 266 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 4: maybe even signific contributions, especially early on this season. And 267 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 4: it's a stat I've brought up before Cardinals rookies a 268 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 4: year ago. The draft class twenty two starts your Seahawks 269 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 4: Paul seventy starts last season. 270 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 5: Hey to me, if it's between somewhat out of this 271 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 5: rookie draft class and a veteran free agent for playing time. 272 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 5: Last year's staff might have gone with a veteran this year, Nope. 273 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 5: I think it'll be the young guy, no allegiances to 274 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 5: any of the guys existing on the roster. 275 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 4: First open training camp practice Thursday, July twenty seventh at 276 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 4: State Farm Stadium, the earliest that there can be a 277 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 4: padded practice Monday, July thirty first Azycardinals dot com for 278 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 4: all the details.

It's pot at the one and 287 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 4: into the end zone. 288 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 2: For the touchdown is Greg dortch Ury. 289 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 9: In an empty set in Shotgun takes the snap restep drop, 290 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 9: looks over the middle, throws and it's bought by Brown. 291 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 9: First down makes an ambass at the fifteen cut right 292 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 9: to the ten. 293 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: Brown is into the end zone before the touchdown.

As we walk you back here to the 298 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 4: Cardinals Redceiver Report presented by a Seki your ticket to 299 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 4: great seats, Greg Realloup, Paul Calvic and Calvin and Bosh. 300 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 4: And when you look at that wide receiver room, Rondell 301 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 4: Moore entering year three? Can he stay healthy? Greg Dortch? 302 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 4: Are there going to be enough snaps for him this season? 303 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 4: If everyone else is healthy in Hollywood going into a 304 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 4: contract year. But when we talk about those three wide receivers, Kyle, 305 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna start with the one gentleman that I 306 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 4: mentioned in the middle, and that's because he's your guy. 307 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 4: And I'd argue and a cheap plug here for Azycardinals 308 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 4: dot Com with Darren Urban on vacation, yours truly has 309 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 4: taken over the mail bag and we got a question 310 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 4: about Greg Dortch, and I wrote in that mail bag Kyle, 311 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 4: that you can make an argument Dortsch was the most reliable, 312 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 4: most consistent pass catcher from last season because he was available. 313 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 6: Was that question from Kyle and Awatuki because I think 314 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 6: I sent it to you. Had I known you were 315 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 6: running the mail bag, I would have flooded your email account. 316 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 317 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 6: I again, I can't say enough. Like anytime, given the opportunity, 318 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 6: Greg Dortch took advantage of that opportunity, had a couple 319 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 6: of huge games last year when he was on the 320 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 6: football field, and then he would just disappear for stretches. 321 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 6: But what I love about him and what I believe 322 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 6: this coaching staff will love about him and give him 323 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 6: every opportunity, was it wasn't just what he did with 324 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 6: the offense. He was a dog on special teams. He's 325 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 6: a true football player, and I think he provides so 326 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 6: much value to the team, you know, not just on Sundays, 327 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 6: but on the practice field. Because of that, He's wired 328 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 6: the right way. He's wired the way this coaching staff, 329 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 6: the way this front office envisions this roster looking like. 330 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 6: So I think he will do well. I think he 331 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 6: will do a lot of the things he did last 332 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 6: year when given an opportunity. And look this whole room, 333 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 6: there's a lot of targets that walked out the door 334 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 6: when DeAndre Hopkins left. So somebody is going to step up. 335 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 6: I don't know if it's going to be one guy 336 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 6: having one hundred and twenty catches or if they're going 337 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 6: to be spread equally across the board. But there is 338 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 6: enough talent in this wide receiver room to be an 339 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 6: explosive offense. And you know, I know you sent a 340 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 6: question about Greg Dortch to me, but I expect Rondell 341 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 6: Moore to take a huge leap as a player that 342 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 6: struggled with injuries through four years, never really got healthy, 343 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 6: and really most teams in the NFL had given up 344 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 6: on me. You know, injuries are not his fault. It 345 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 6: is circumstances in bad luck. And if he is healthy, 346 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 6: I think he will be a special player for this offense. 347 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 4: This year. 348 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 6: We've seen glimpses of it. When he gets the ball 349 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 6: in his hand, he can do special things. I just 350 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 6: would love to see him used in, you know, a 351 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 6: role with catching routes down the field. Get him the 352 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 6: ball in space more down the field instead of just 353 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 6: behind the line of scrimmage, because he just looks dynamic 354 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 6: and looks special with that football in his hands. 355 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 5: Because you asked Ron del Moore about his route tree, 356 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 5: and he's itching. He's hungry to show everyone he's more 357 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 5: than just a guy goes sideline to sideline, horizontal, throw 358 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 5: me the bubble screen or a quick slan. He thinks 359 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: he's an accomplished, polish receiver who's able to get separation 360 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 5: downfield via his route running, not just his explosion. And 361 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 5: I think he's dying to show. 362 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 4: Everybody he needs to be on the football field in 363 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 4: order for that to help. And that's been the one 364 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 4: knock on Rondell More. He only played twenty two with 365 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 4: thirty four games so far in his career. And it's 366 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 4: a conversation Paul that Rondell knows because as he addressed 367 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 4: the media earlier this offseason, he knows that question is coming, 368 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 4: answers it politely, but it is something that he is 369 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,360 Speaker 4: going to have to change that narrative, and the only 370 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 4: way to do it is to be available on Sundays, 371 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:27,679 Speaker 4: no doubt. 372 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 5: I mean, you look at other guys on this roster, 373 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 5: I'll give you sort of a you know, maybe on 374 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 5: the outside looking in terms of a breakout player candidate, 375 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 5: but I like Kaizer White. You know, like, come on, 376 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 5: Calvic's been in the league five or six years. But yeah, 377 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 5: but guess what, the one and only year he played 378 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 5: mike linebacker, he thought was buying far his best year 379 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 5: his fourth season with the Chargers. So you put him 380 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,239 Speaker 5: in this role, you give him seventeen games worth of 381 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 5: starting mike linebacker. I'm real curious to see how productive 382 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 5: Kaizier White can be. And then in terms of that 383 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 5: front seven, it's hard not to think about Zaven Collins 384 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 5: the end of the offseason with Dennis Gardak says, quote, 385 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 5: he's going to be a dominant outside backer. When Josh Woods, 386 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 5: who might be your other starting inside linebackers, says about 387 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 5: Zav and he's going to be an amazing player in 388 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 5: this league. It's hard not to look at Zavi and 389 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 5: Collins and wonder what's coming with this guy and has 390 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 5: moved to the edge. 391 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 4: And you also think about those players that are going 392 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 4: into year two, the biggest jump that you can make 393 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 4: production wise from year one to year two. Let's talk 394 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 4: about Cameron Thomas and my Jay Sanders, your two edge 395 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 4: rushers from a year ago kind of touched on that 396 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 4: position already here on the Cardinals, Red Seat report, but 397 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 4: hey cut. Jonathan Ginnon on what he sees from Cameron Thomas. 398 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 10: Was playing outside back or for US right now, defensive 399 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 10: ends and outside linebackers are kind of the same position 400 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 10: for us. So like where he's at, he's a big, 401 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 10: powerful guy. He's doing some good things on the grass 402 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 10: with movement skills and different things like that, and like 403 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 10: where he's at. 404 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 4: Thomas told the media that or he's listed at two 405 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 4: sixty seven, told you, Paul though on a recent edition 406 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 4: of The Big Red Rage, he's more in the two 407 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 4: seventy range, but still feels comfortable to where he was 408 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 4: last year two fifty five, two sixty And you do think, 409 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 4: Kyle that when you have that need for a pass rusher, 410 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 4: how much better can he be? How much better can 411 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 4: my Jay Sanders be with increased reps? Yeah, I think 412 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 4: they can both take a huge leap. 413 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 6: Like you said, the rookie year, you're just trying to 414 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 6: find yourself and trying to find a way to get 415 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 6: on the football field, trying to prove yourself daily. By 416 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 6: year two, you figured a lot of things out. Now, 417 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 6: I mean this this game is always a learning process. 418 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 6: But that's what I love you know, listening to Cameron 419 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 6: Thomas talk in interviews, he is truly a student of 420 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 6: the game and he is doing things in year two 421 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 6: with his body that it takes some players till year 422 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 6: four or five figure out, Okay, how do I change 423 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 6: my nutrition? How do I adjust my training to maximize 424 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 6: my potential? And he's already doing those things. I mean 425 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 6: to make the type of I mean, he was a 426 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 6: specimen when he walked in here as a rookie, and 427 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 6: to make the types of changes that he's made to 428 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 6: his body, understanding what it's going to take in his 429 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 6: new role with his defense, that's that's a huge commitment 430 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 6: and it shows how dialed in he is and shows 431 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 6: how serious he is about this opportunity that he has 432 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 6: because again, you know, neither he nor my Jay really 433 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 6: got an opportunity very often early last season, but they 434 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 6: really showed that they belong in this league and they 435 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 6: can be contributors and be playmakers in the back half 436 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 6: of the season. 437 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 5: Cameron Thomas told us that by the end of last 438 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 5: season he was two fifty five and then from there 439 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 5: he started building back up to around two seventy. But 440 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 5: he said he feels every bit as quick as he 441 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 5: did at two fifty five because he put on the 442 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 5: weight the right way. He also had a body scan 443 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 5: analysis some sort of deal, and they said he could 444 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 5: he could carry three hundred pounds. So what does that 445 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 5: mean for his future? His brother is a three hundred 446 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 5: pound defensive lineman. His dad was a three hundred pound lineman, 447 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 5: so I'm curious what that means. I'm also curious, Kyle, 448 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 5: because you played the position. When Jonathan Gannon says the 449 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 5: defensive end and outside linebacker is essentially the same position 450 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 5: in our system, what does that say about the system 451 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 5: and what's coming because they're all wondering what exactly he's 452 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 5: going to run. 453 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think most defenses are multiple fronts. I mean, 454 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 6: you're not just married to one front. But I think, 455 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 6: you know, an outside linebacker, a stand up outside linebackers 456 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 6: essentially the same as a four to three defensive end. 457 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 6: I mean, you're playing in space a little bit, but 458 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 6: you're playing the offensive tackle, you're reading his block. You 459 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 6: you know, you're not using coverage as much as a 460 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 6: defensive end, but you you're doing You're lining up essentially 461 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 6: in the same position, doing the same things, playing the 462 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 6: run the same way. So you know, that's what I expect. Again, 463 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 6: it appears that this defense isn't going to be married 464 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 6: to one front, even though you know, my guess at 465 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 6: this point is probably not front with some outside linebackers. 466 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 6: But you get in and out of different fronts based 467 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 6: on game plan, based on down a distance, based on 468 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 6: game situations. So you know, and he has shown he 469 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 6: showed this at San Diego State that he is a 470 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 6: versatile athlete. I mean, he played stand up, he played 471 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 6: three techniques. He even played nose tackle at time, so 472 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 6: he has done it before and has the ability to 473 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 6: play multiple positions across the defensive front. 474 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 4: If Cameron Thomas is closer to two seventy, then yeah, 475 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 4: we might see him in a three point stance as 476 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 4: a defensive end. 477 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 3: Now. My J. 478 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 4: Sanders is the complete opposite. He looks more like that 479 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 4: prototypical outside edge rusher six five, two forty eight, maybe 480 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 4: a little bit quicker off the line of scrimmage to 481 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 4: get around those tackles. 482 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 5: You know, the comp that I got from a number 483 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 5: of the assistant coaches last year, Leonard Floyd, my J. 484 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 5: Sanders reminded a lot of players, a lot of assistant 485 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 5: coaches of a Leonard Floyd back in his heyday with 486 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 5: the Rams a couple of years ago. That would be 487 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 5: a look if you can recapture some of that production 488 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 5: that he had for a few years as sort of 489 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 5: the wingman for Aaron Donald. Yeah, that would be great. 490 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 5: And I tell you and look, they don't have pads 491 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 5: on and they're not going full contact, full padded football 492 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 5: against an offensive lineman. 493 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 3: But my J. 494 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 5: Sanders and a lot of those drills looked really dynamic, 495 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 5: and I'm curious, just sort of like, Okay, they moved 496 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 5: Zave and Kalm, so hopefully maximize his skill set. What 497 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 5: are they going to do with the my J. Sanders, 498 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 5: who has a lot of length and a lot of explosion. 499 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 4: Two other players to pass along when you talk about 500 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 4: breakout players specifically on defense, and two players that are 501 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 4: in contract years Lucky fot two and Rashard Lawrence. They've 502 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 4: been available, Lucky fotwo has, Rashard Lawrence has not draft picks, 503 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 4: both fourth round selections. This team is waiting for those 504 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 4: two players, Paul to step up and say, yeah, we 505 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 4: want to be here. 506 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 5: It's completely on those two players. Honestly, it's so wide 507 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 5: open in the defensive line room. There's no excuse for 508 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 5: those guys going into a contract year with their football 509 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 5: future hanging in the balance to not be huge difference makers. 510 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 5: I mean, Lucky fotwo in the size and they need 511 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 5: his run stuffing obviously, and Rashard Lawrence and Kyle and 512 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:48,959 Speaker 5: the guys who have played in that defensive front when 513 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 5: they watch his get off as an ability to penetrate 514 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 5: right on the snap of the ball. Those two guys 515 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 5: should be dynamic parts of this defense. 516 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 4: But we'll see it is the Cardinals red zea report 517 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 4: presented by Seek. It's the Great Seats. This is the 518 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 4: Arizona Cardinals radio network. 519 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 9: Hurry and the gun, waiting for the snap, snap to Murray, 520 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 9: drops back to pass, pasttime, fires left side, a touchdown. 521 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 9: Zach Ertz the Cardinals with an excellent drive that started 522 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 9: deeping their own end. 523 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 3: Breathe in and breathe olts Baby Wow. 524 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 4: Zach Ertz last season forty seven catches, four hundred and 525 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 4: six yards and a team best four touchdowns. As you 526 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 4: heard Dave past Ron woofully describe one, a two yard 527 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 4: touchdown catch at Carolina. Question is when will we see 528 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 4: zach Ertz on the field here in twenty twenty three. 529 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 4: It is the second half of the Cardinals Red Seat 530 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 4: Report presented by seat Geek Your Ticket to Great Seats, 531 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 4: Greg Realu, Paul Calvic and Kyle Van and Bosch and 532 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 4: looking at the tight end position one, we just don't 533 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 4: know about Ertz's availability. He says his goal is week one. 534 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 4: He had that surgery to repair a torn ACL in November, 535 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 4: so September would be ten months. Is it possibility? I 536 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 4: think it is, But again, every player recovers on their 537 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 4: own timeline. Although I say this, Kyle, we did see 538 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,360 Speaker 4: Ertz during OTA's and mini camp on the side working 539 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 4: doing some light running more like a jog. So he 540 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 4: is progressing just how quickly to be available training camp 541 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 4: for week one because we do think that this tight 542 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 4: end position is going to be a major focal point 543 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:39,719 Speaker 4: of the Drew Petsing offense. 544 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, so you two are smarter than me throughout stats, 545 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 6: and so I got some stats for you. So Drew 546 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,880 Speaker 6: Petsing came from the Browns. Well, they were number they 547 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 6: were top five in twelve personnel last year and over 548 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 6: the last three years they were number one and thirteen personnel, 549 00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 6: which is three tight ends on the field, and it 550 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 6: wasn't just go line like most teams will do. It's 551 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 6: not just a jumbo package. It's they used it out 552 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 6: in the field in just about anywhere. So and on 553 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 6: top of that, you know, we know Drew Petsing is 554 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 6: being the quarterbacks coach with Cleveland the two years prior 555 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 6: he was a tight ends coach, so he was coaching 556 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 6: that group and obviously he understands the importance of the 557 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 6: tight end in the offense. And one more little nugget 558 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 6: is the Eagles were number one in the NFL in 559 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 6: twelve personnel last year, so they used the tight ends 560 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 6: more than anybody else also in the NFL. So you 561 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 6: can expect this position group to be used a lot, 562 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 6: to be featured, and not just in the passing game, 563 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 6: but a huge part of the run game. And you know, 564 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 6: we again get this feeling and Paul doing interviews with players, 565 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 6: this team is going to run the ball. It's going 566 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 6: to be a run first offense to set up the 567 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 6: play action pass and and so you know, a huge 568 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 6: part of your run game and a huge part of 569 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 6: play action passing game is the usage of your tight ends. Okay, now, 570 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 6: circling back to Zach Ertz. Well, I mean, to me, 571 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 6: there is maybe he's in a handful of tight ends 572 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 6: in the NFL as top receiving tight ends. I mean, 573 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 6: tremendous hands, tremendous route runner. You know, he was, and 574 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 6: he showed with Kyler Murray. They have a great relationship 575 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 6: on the football field. Kyler trusts zach Ertz and he 576 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 6: was a bit of his you know, not just a 577 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 6: checkdown guy, but when he was in trouble, he would 578 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 6: find zach Ertz, and zach Ertz would always find a 579 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 6: void in his zone. He would find a way to 580 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 6: get separation versus man coverage. So I think getting him back, 581 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 6: getting him back healthy will be huge for this team, 582 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 6: and I think he will have once he does return 583 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 6: to the football field, he will have a lot of 584 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 6: production in this offense. 585 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 3: You know. 586 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 6: To me, the big bigger question is is you know, 587 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 6: again this the second year, the sophomore year. Will Trey 588 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 6: McBride take that hugely because he also, like the rookies, 589 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 6: the outside linebackers we talked about, really ramped it up 590 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 6: toward the end of the season, made some great catches, 591 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 6: ran some good routes, showed some tough running after the catch, 592 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 6: I mean, he really looked like he had arrived late 593 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 6: in the season last year. So I'm excited to see 594 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 6: what he has to this offense. And then you know 595 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 6: who else will be on the football field, because again, 596 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 6: it's not even when zach Ertz is healthy, it's not 597 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 6: just going to be using two tight ends throughout the 598 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 6: course of a ballgame. I get the feeling they're gonna 599 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 6: use three, sometimes use a fourth who was also a 600 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 6: special teams player. 601 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 3: Well. 602 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 4: Zach Ertz when he met with the media this offseason, 603 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 4: did bring up a little bit of a detail, maybe 604 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 4: open the door a little bit to what we can 605 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 4: expect from the offense here is tight end. Zach Ertz 606 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 4: on what he says will be a dramatically drastically different offense. 607 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 11: I mean, it could be more different, Cliff. Obviously we 608 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 11: were in the gun every play. We're gonna be a 609 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,719 Speaker 11: lot more under center, I would assume. And so for me, 610 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 11: I've never been in an offense like this, so I'm 611 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 11: learning a lot. The opportunity to i've explosive plays is 612 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 11: gonna go up for me in particular, and the tight 613 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 11: ends as a whole. I'm really excited about just coming 614 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 11: back and being healthy because I think I can be 615 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 11: a difference maker for this team, especially staying the way 616 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 11: they're installid players. 617 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: Ertz will be thirty three on November tenth. He's entering 618 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 4: his eleventh season, but almost you would think, Paul, he's 619 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 4: I want to say, a chip on his shoulder, but 620 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 4: something to prove, maybe to himself than anyone else, as 621 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 4: far as yeah, I can still play this game even 622 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 4: though I am entering my eleventh season. 623 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, if he's healthy, he's gonna be plug and play. 624 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 5: I don't care how much a camp he really gets 625 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 5: coming off the knee injury. He has a decade in 626 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 5: the league. He'll know that the scheme, he'll be reliable 627 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 5: from the mental side. Can they rely on the knee? 628 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 5: Is he gonna have his confidence to be a playmaker again, 629 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 5: that's not really my question. Trey McBride. Can he go 630 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 5: from year one year two and making that proverbial jump. 631 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 5: Zach Ertz also had to say about Trey McBride, he's 632 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 5: not nearly as anxious as trying to do as well 633 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 5: as he did his rookie year. Maybe he's a little 634 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 5: too hard on himself his rookie year. We'll see, But 635 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 5: there's wanting to run a lot of tight ends out there, 636 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 5: and then there's the ability to feel that sort offense. 637 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 5: You know, Kyle knocked it out of the park here. 638 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 5: I mean, we thought he was mailing in this summer show. 639 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 5: But he's doing his research and he's talking about all 640 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 5: the tendencies of Drew Petsing in the affinity for the 641 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 5: tight end. That's great, But once you get past zach 642 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 5: Ertz and he's already a question mark. And then Trey McBride, 643 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 5: I mean, you got guys like Chris Pierce and Bernhard 644 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 5: Psychowitz and then the veteran Noah Tangi I I mean, 645 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 5: hello to a couple of undrafted rookie tight ends. And 646 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 5: Joel Huntingford and Blake Whiteheart both well. Hunting ferg in 647 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 5: particular former offensive Lemon he had won college catch his 648 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 5: entire career at Michigan, so he's a blocking tight end. 649 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 5: You want to go with twelve and thirteen personnel, can you? 650 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 5: That's my question? 651 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 4: You need one a healthy zach Ertz and Trey McBride 652 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 4: to take that leap. In year two, Cole McCoy, they'll 653 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 4: offer this up about the young tight end. 654 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 12: Trady's doing great. I mean, Trady's a guy that you know, 655 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 12: he's fast for a tight end, so you can line 656 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 12: him up outside, he can pull him back in the backfield. 657 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 12: I think he's a guy you can do a lot 658 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 12: with like he can he can handle a bunch. You know, 659 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 12: he's getting a lot of different looks right because Zach 660 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 12: is rehaving his knee and Trayson has had a good offseason. 661 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 5: Pull him into the backfield. Now that's interesting. Okay, what 662 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 5: does that mean? 663 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 4: Not a fullback but a tight end who blocks a 664 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 4: little bit or just gives the defense a different look. 665 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 5: But what if a tight ends in the I formation 666 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 5: behind the quarterback and in front of the running back. 667 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 5: Is he now playing fullback even though he's not listed 668 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 5: as a fullback. I'm just curious what this might look 669 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 5: like if you are putting the quarterback under center, especially 670 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 5: if Colt McCoy is your starting quarterback out of the gates, 671 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 5: then what does the run game look like? And how 672 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 5: traditional is it going to be? Back to Zach ertz comment, 673 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 5: it couldn't be any more different the one Cliff Kingsbury ran. 674 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 4: And we saw a lot last season. Kala the tight 675 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 4: end lined up as a wide receiver, whether in the 676 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 4: slot or deep on the left side or right side. 677 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 4: But this offense, I think you're going to see that 678 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 4: tight end more on the line of scrimmage next to 679 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 4: a tackle, and then the question is, Okay, do they 680 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 4: run out for a route or are they stay in 681 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 4: and block. Ertz and McBride right now, they're not blocking 682 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 4: tight ends. They're past catching tight ends. 683 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was gonna say, I think that's again we 684 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 6: talk about what does the back end of the tight 685 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 6: end room looks like. I think if there's one thing 686 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 6: that both of these tight ends still need to work 687 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 6: on in their game is blocking at the point of attack. 688 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 6: I think Trey McBride had a phenomenal rookie season, particularly 689 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 6: again at the end of the season, but at times 690 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 6: he was a liability at the point of attack. Zach 691 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 6: Ertz has never really been known as a point of 692 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 6: attack blocking tight end. He's more of a backside, cutoff 693 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 6: tight tight end and split out. So you know, I'm 694 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 6: sure it's something they're working on. But again, don't rule 695 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 6: out a tight end that's only had one career catching 696 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 6: college and is a converted offensive tackle, because that's what 697 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 6: again Cleveland did sometimes they'd bring in an extra offensive 698 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 6: tackle and use him as a tight end. So that 699 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 6: could happen on this roster too. We look at a 700 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 6: Josh Jones, who may or may not crack this starting lineup. 701 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 6: He could be a huge tight end and open up 702 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 6: big holes. I mean, that's a part of the reason 703 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 6: that Chubb had, you know, so much success on the 704 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 6: ground game was their offensive line was huge. They would 705 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 6: use an extra tackle at tight end. And that is tough, 706 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 6: particularly when we're talking about how small some of the 707 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 6: outside linebackers and defensive ends have gotten. Now all of a sudden, 708 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 6: you're lined head up on a three hundred and twenty 709 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 6: pounder or you're trying to play a nine techniquo a 710 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 6: three hundred and twenty pounder. That's a whole new ball game. 711 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 6: It's not the same as you look. You know, are 712 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 6: my defensive line coach at Tennessee always said, you cannot 713 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 6: get blocked by a tight end. He's a receiver, he's 714 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 6: not a blocker. And that's how a lot of defensive 715 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 6: linemen view tight ends. Look, if they're gonna try to 716 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 6: block me, they got no chance. But if you bring 717 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 6: in I remember playing against the San Francisco forty nine ers, 718 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 6: and then he was Leonard Davis as a big tight end. 719 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 6: And I mean a lot of times I was just 720 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 6: curled up in the fetal position waiting for him to 721 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 6: jump on me because it was nearly impossible to stand 722 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 6: up Leonard. 723 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 4: No matter how many tight ends this team keeps, you 724 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 4: know that Ertz and McBride are going to be there. 725 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 4: But if there are three, four and five tight ends 726 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 4: and you just don't recognize them or they don't have 727 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 4: much of stats, Paul, I don't care because they're in 728 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 4: there for one reason, and that's to block either for 729 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 4: James Connor or someone else. But they have one job. 730 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 4: And then just make sure that it's the outside linebacker 731 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 4: or the inside lineback. Not get into the backfield. 732 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 5: And if there's one position room that you might keep 733 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 5: your eye on after final cuts for another team's waiver claim, 734 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 5: might be tight end. Honestly, Cardinals have the number three 735 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 5: selection when it comes to waiver claims. But to Kyle's 736 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 5: point as well, if you keep three tight ends and 737 00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 5: you stick with eleven or even twelve offensive lineman, there's 738 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 5: Josh Jones or even a John Gaines who's really Athletic 739 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 5: oh Wire. Six offensive linemen in the game because you're 740 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 5: running thirteen personnel. 741 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 4: Cardinals single game tickets on sale now.

With the interception, he takes 749 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 2: a knee an the Cardinals get a takeaway. 750 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, Antonio Hamilton, what a great break on the fall 751 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 9: underneath and he Dollon read his eyes and was there 752 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 9: for the pack. 753 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 4: The first career pick for one Antonio Hamilton, who was 754 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 4: re signed this offseason by the Cardinals and now one 755 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 4: of those twelve cornerbacks on the roster. As we say, 756 00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 4: welcome back here to the Cardinals red seat were board 757 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 4: presented by seat Geek. Your ticket to great seats. You 758 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 4: got Antonio Hamilton back, Marco Wilson back, and then a 759 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 4: lot of question marks in that room because it is 760 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 4: a lot of numbers, just not so much as far 761 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 4: as depth of talent right. 762 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 5: Now, Craig, there are two types of players on this 763 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 5: Cardinals defense. You're either older than the Cardinals defensive coordinator 764 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 5: or you're younger than soon to be thirty year old 765 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,720 Speaker 5: Nick Rolis. Okay, Antonio Hamilton happens to be older. In fact, 766 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 5: by my calculation, he happens to be the oldest guy 767 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 5: on the defense right now. Which was a sobering moment 768 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 5: when Antonio Hamilton showed up for mandatory mini camp and 769 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 5: he looked around and not only a lot of new 770 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 5: names and faces, but he realized he's the older statesman 771 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 5: in that room. So let's see if he can pick 772 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 5: up where he left off with that pick, which that 773 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 5: was the one where we all saw in Hard Knocks. 774 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 5: We came to the sideline and he came to the 775 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 5: rail and he was waiting for his wife because he 776 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 5: had the tragic cooking accident where he nearly lost his career, 777 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 5: and she really helped him get through that month at 778 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 5: least of rehab where he had come back from serious 779 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 5: burns on his feet. And let's not forget at the 780 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 5: end of camp last year and right before the accident, 781 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 5: he was the starting corner. He was ahead of Marco 782 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 5: Wilson when they broke camp last season, Cardinals signed four 783 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 5: free agent corners. They drafted too. 784 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 4: Don't know about the availability of Garrett Williams, who's still 785 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 4: recovering from an ACL injury. But Key Trell Clark in 786 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 4: the sixth round certainly has made a lot of noise 787 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 4: this offseason. But if you're not getting to the quarterback Kyle, 788 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 4: you need someone or several players on the back end 789 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 4: to cover those past catchers. And right now, the Cardinals 790 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 4: I think have a question mark as far as who 791 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 4: your top two, top three are. 792 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, the Cardinals have the questions. I have the questions. 793 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 6: It'll be interesting to see how it shakes out. I 794 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 6: mean again, yeah, there's we've flooded the position group with numbers. 795 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 6: There's players that come from a lot of different places, 796 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 6: players with different ranges of experience. But you know, the 797 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 6: exciting thing is, you know Paulie keeps talking about, is 798 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 6: nobody is getting a preference because they were here last year. 799 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 6: Nobody's getting a preference because they made an interception in 800 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 6: game six two years ago. And the coaching staff remembers 801 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 6: that everybody's on the same footing right now, everybody's been 802 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 6: being given an opportunity to compete and to be on 803 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 6: the football field. And you know, without actually getting to 804 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,959 Speaker 6: see much of the practice, we don't really know where 805 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 6: everybody stacks up on the depth chart. But you know, 806 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 6: there's certain players like Antonio Hamilton that you just love 807 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,439 Speaker 6: the way he's wired. You love the fact that he's 808 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 6: gone through so much adversity. I mean, obviously, as a player, 809 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 6: you don't love adversity, but you grow from it, you 810 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 6: come out stronger on the back end of it, and 811 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 6: he really did. I mean, again, having it documented on 812 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 6: in season hard knocks the things he went through just 813 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 6: to get back out on the football field, and the 814 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 6: highs and lows of the NFL season. I mean, you know, 815 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 6: you talked about how he was like the starting quarterback 816 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 6: come out of training camp. He was the story. I mean, 817 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 6: he was playing really well and at a really high 818 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 6: level coming out of training camp prior to his unfortunate injuries. 819 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 6: So you know, you hope that that chip just kept growing, 820 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 6: and you know he's the kind of player that, look, 821 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 6: I don't think anybody has super high expectations from this 822 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 6: position group at this moment. He loves that type of 823 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 6: thing as a player that's been cutting this league and 824 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 6: a player that's been on different teams and a player 825 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 6: that struggled with injury and adversity. You know what, put 826 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 6: it on my plate. Doubt me, please doubt me. And 827 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 6: that's the way he's wired. And same with Marco Wilson. Look, 828 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 6: Marco Wilson came in as a rookie and played really 829 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 6: well from the beginning, but then kind of fell out 830 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 6: of favor with the coaches and had to earn that 831 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 6: trust back and he did, and you hope that he 832 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 6: can take that leap as well. And you know, I'm 833 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 6: I'm excited to see what comes out of this room. 834 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 6: It's it's a room of not very many household names 835 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 6: or any household names. You know, people sitting at home 836 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 6: don't know who these players are. So you know, let's 837 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 6: let them battle it out. Let's let them get this 838 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 6: coaching that Jonathan Gannon's staff is giving these players and 839 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 6: see who can help this team, because, like you said, 840 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 6: we don't know. You know, one of the big questions 841 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 6: is where is this pass rush going to come from. 842 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 6: Who's going to be the guy or the guys that 843 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 6: provide consistent pressure, and if it's not there, we're gonna 844 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 6: need a lot of help at the cornerback position. 845 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,280 Speaker 4: And it is a position that the head coach, Jonathan 846 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 4: Gannon has special fondness for. He played the position in 847 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 4: college at Louisville, and he was asked earlier this offseason 848 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 4: what he wants to see out of his cornerbacks in 849 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 4: this defense. 850 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 7: So they got to be smart, know what's going on, 851 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 7: and know why calls are being called, where's the stress 852 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,479 Speaker 7: and the strength of each call, and then be able 853 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,280 Speaker 7: to line up and tonight the ball on the highway, 854 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 7: which that's a long world out there. 855 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 4: So a lot on the plate of these cornerbacks. And 856 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 4: again you look at who is returning and Marco Hamilton, 857 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 4: excuse Marco Wilson and Antonio Hamilton. And with Hamilton, yeah, 858 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 4: there is that urgency for him. He always plays as 859 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 4: if he's the last guy on the roster, the last 860 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 4: cornerback in the room. But he took a liking to 861 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 4: the coaching that they were getting this offseason. 862 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 13: It's a little different, but they have such a great 863 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 13: understanding of it and I think that they can tell 864 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 13: you what it is the reason why we're doing it 865 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 13: is just to give you that full fledged understanding of 866 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 13: just not running cover three like you understand the principles 867 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 13: of why we're running and doing it like this. 868 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 4: You can get coached up at any position, Paul. Yet 869 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 4: at the same time, you also need the knowledge and 870 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 4: the talents to go out there on the football field. 871 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 4: And yeah, even though you've got twelve corners on the roster, 872 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 4: maybe there is an addition before training camp. And to 873 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 4: your point about having the third waiver claim when roster 874 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 4: cuts are made at the end of August, yeah, a 875 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,319 Speaker 4: cornerback may be added or two. 876 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 5: What about a Christian Matthew seventh round pick has really 877 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 5: good length and size. He got a lot of playing 878 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 5: time in the latter stages of last season. What sort 879 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 5: of leap is he made year one to year two? 880 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 5: We failed to name him. Nate Harriston, Rashad Fenton, these 881 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,160 Speaker 5: are veteran free agents. I mean, if you're looking for 882 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 5: a roster to crack as a guy who's a fringe 883 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 5: fifty three player, then you know what this Cardinals cornerback 884 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,879 Speaker 5: room appears to be it. I'll say this much. Key 885 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 5: Trell Clark is really he is really shy. Now it's 886 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 5: against Michael Wilson a lot, and those two in making 887 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 5: each other better. But I think Kee Trell Clark's gonna 888 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 5: get every opportunity to get playing time. And then an 889 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 5: undrafted rookie free agent, a smaller guy that has skills 890 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 5: Quavy and White keep an eye on him during training 891 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 5: camp as well. I think all these guys, and once again, 892 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 5: no allegiances, right, Bill Belichick, no days off, Jonathan Gannon 893 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 5: and Mantia Sippord, no allegiances. If you can play and 894 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 5: you're a young guy and you're part of the future, 895 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 5: I think you're gonna be more apt to stick and 896 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 5: stay than some veteran free agent off the street. 897 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 4: I believe White is one of the what or ten 898 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 4: different undrafted guys that you have brought up, as far 899 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,280 Speaker 4: as I pay attention to, its. 900 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 5: Five I've identified at may or may not be half 901 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 5: of the undrafted rookie free agent class. But it just 902 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:13,440 Speaker 5: it speaks to just how wide open this competition is. 903 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 6: Gentlemen. 904 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 4: It speaks to how you like. 905 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,720 Speaker 6: To hedge and not ever go out on a limb 906 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,920 Speaker 6: because you've been wrong so many times in the past. 907 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,719 Speaker 4: But to that allegiance point, Kyle, it doesn't matter how 908 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 4: you got here, you're here and we're gonna take the 909 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 4: best fifty three, no matter your stature in the league, 910 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 4: how much you're making, or what your draft status is. 911 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 4: I love it. I love it. 912 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 6: Look woefully always talks about how football is a true meritocracy. 913 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,879 Speaker 6: It's not always like that. I mean, that's that's kind 914 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 6: of pieing the guy thinking like there's sometimes better players 915 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 6: are on the bench and don't get an opportunity, or 916 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 6: young players don't get an opportunity because veterans are more trusted. 917 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 6: You get that feel. And again just from mantiasap Ford 918 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 6: to Jonathan Gannon talk about we want competition at every position. 919 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 6: And if you say that, then if you're playing better 920 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 6: at practice, if you're showing more in preseason games, if 921 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 6: you're playing better in regular season games, then you should 922 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 6: be a starter. Then you should get an opportunity and 923 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 6: you have earned that position. And I just want to 924 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 6: go back one more time to the Hamilton's quote there, 925 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 6: because we've heard this several times this season. They don't 926 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 6: just tell the players what to do, they tell them 927 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 6: why they're doing it, and to understand the strengths and 928 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 6: the weaknesses of each coverage and where a team is 929 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 6: trying to attack a certain coverage that is huge. That 930 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 6: is for a coaching staff to invest in players and 931 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 6: give them the power to understand why we're calling certain 932 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,720 Speaker 6: things in certain situations. That pays huge dividends for this defense. 933 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 4: A great show as always, And because of that, I'm 934 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 4: going to reward the two of you with next week 935 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 4: off July fourth.

You're not the boss of us. 937 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 4: I'll just say you want one more number. How about 938 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 4: the fact that the Chiefs Dolphins game in Frankfurt, Germany 939 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 4: sold out in fifteen minutes today and there were a 940 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:03,240 Speaker 4: million fans in Q online when the game sold out.
