1 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: This is One Bills Live, presented by Callida Health. 2 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: Thank God it's Friday. Welcome on into One Bills Live. 3 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 2: I'm Carl Jones, a sports reporter from w IVB TV 4 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 2: here in Buffalo. No Steve Tasker and Chris Brown today, 5 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: so they called me up from the minor leagues and 6 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna man this for by myself. I'm joined 7 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: alongside Chris Chapazo, a player and draft analyst. 8 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: Chris, we are a little over twenty four hours. 9 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: Away from the Bills preseason finale down in Tampa, but 10 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 2: we are also a little over twenty four hours away 11 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 2: from the end of preseason football in general for the Bills. 12 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 2: So excited that we can finally in about a day 13 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: or so, turn our attention to the real things in 14 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: the football that counts. 15 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 3: How you doing. 16 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm doing really good, Carl, Thanks for hosting today. This 17 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: is going to be a really fun show because of 18 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: everything that you just laid out. And I think based 19 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: on the showing that the Bills had in the last 20 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 1: preseason game, the first preseason game wasn't great on defense, 21 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: they're probably ready to turn the page two to the 22 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: regular season where we're not getting the second and third 23 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: and four string unit out there, that those ones that 24 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: have been on the sideline for so much of this 25 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: preseason are going to be ready to go for that 26 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: huge game in Week one against the Ravens. 27 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: Now, the big news of the day is the status 28 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: of Bill's cornerback Tradavius White. At Thursday's practice at the stadium, 29 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,639 Speaker 2: he went down during the eleven to eleven team portion 30 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: of practice. According to a lot of my colleagues and 31 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: reporters who were at that practice, he needed help off 32 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: the field. He hobbled off the field with assistance of 33 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 2: a teammate. He then walked with a trainer up the tunnel, 34 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 2: came back onto the field after that, but then was 35 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 2: carted out of the stadium. Obviously a lot of history 36 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: here in Buffalo Tredevius White and his injuries. Just your 37 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: initial reaction when you saw that report, it's pretty devastating. 38 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: I mean, we don't know the severity, but even if 39 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: he's out a couple of weeks, the Bills are obviously 40 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 1: already dealing with Maxwell Harston on the shelf, and who 41 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: knows that if he's going to be ready with that 42 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: injured PCL for that huge Week one game that I 43 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: already alluded to against the Ravens Z eight flowers, Rashad Bateman 44 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: a pretty good pass catching unit there with Lamar Jackson 45 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: throwing them passes. This is where then the Bill's depth 46 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: at cornerback Dorian Strong, the sixth rounder Dan Jackson who 47 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: they brought back, is kind of that second Reunion Tour 48 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: cornerback on this team. They might have to lean on 49 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: those players early on, and from all reports, Tredevius White 50 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: had a very good camp and it's not super surprised 51 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: given his familiarity with Sean McDermott's defense, how productive he 52 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: was in it, and what I think Sean McDermott and 53 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: Brandon Bean both spoke to early on coming off the 54 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: torn achilles two years ago in LA with the Rams 55 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: did not look good, but as he got more healthy 56 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: late in the season last year in Baltimore and then 57 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: even in that playoff game the Divisional Round against the 58 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: Bills he had a pass breakup, he was really trending 59 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: in the right direction. So there's no real substantiated reports 60 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: at this point that indicate this is a significant injury. 61 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: I think if it was something major, we would have 62 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: gotten that news already, but even if he's down or 63 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: not at one hundred percent, the Bills will be tested 64 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: at that cornerback spot opposite Christian Benford early in the season. 65 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't emphasize it enough. We don't know the 66 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: severity or the status on the injury. It is a 67 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: lower body injury. But I will say when I think 68 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: about Trey White, the person and everything that he's gone 69 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: through over the past four years in terms of the aco, 70 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: the first time down in New Orleans and then Sarah 71 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: his achilles right across the street in the stadium, I 72 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: just think about the person and like, in that moment, 73 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: no matter if it's a road ankle or whatever the 74 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: case may be, just a psyche as a player where 75 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: you're like, not again, this can't happen again. So I 76 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: think about Trey White and the person, let alone what 77 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 2: he means to this Bill's roster and what he can 78 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 2: do on the field. I just hope that whatever it is, 79 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: it's not that bad obviously, and that he's able to 80 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: bounce back from this mentally upstairs, because as you know, 81 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: this game is there's a lot of mental that goes 82 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: into playing this sport, especially a defensive back. Where you're 83 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,160 Speaker 2: doing a lot of reactionary stuff. 84 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wanted to ask you, as a former defensive 85 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: back yourself, how much would you say, like you could 86 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: put a percentage on it, or you can just say, 87 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,799 Speaker 1: like your experience, how much of it is the mental 88 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: part of going back onto the field after a lower 89 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: body injury, when you're planting and driving on that first 90 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: dig route or opening it up on a vertical to 91 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: stay with a wide receiver down the field. How much 92 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: of that we don't really maybe think about, even in 93 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: the media or as fans. How important is that for 94 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 1: someone even like Trey White that's been through a lot 95 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: of injuries in his NFL career. 96 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 2: I personally have never had a lower body injury that 97 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: was significant that require surgery. But I was in the 98 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: room with several defensive backs who had Achilles acls, MCLs, 99 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 2: and pcos. And it's one thing when the doctor clears 100 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 2: you and says, hey, you can't harm yourself anymore. You 101 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 2: can go out there around that let's say nine months 102 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: a year mark. But I have eyes. I'm in the 103 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: rooms with my brothers, and I can see that there's 104 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 2: a little hesitancy right where they're still thinking or like, 105 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: for example, after a one on one rep where they 106 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 2: just shake their leg a little bit and it's like, 107 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 2: you weren't doing that before. And I think that over time, 108 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: the further you get away from that injury, you become 109 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 2: more confident in your new normal. Because I sat next 110 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 2: to Steve Tasker, who actually broke this down a month ago, 111 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 2: where he said, you're never going to be the same. 112 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,239 Speaker 3: You have to get adjusted to your new normal. 113 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: And that's one thing that I learned in college watching 114 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 2: those guys come back from the rehab. They had their 115 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: days where it was tough. They had their days where 116 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 2: they didn't feel like themselves. So it had to really 117 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 2: overcome it upstairs because downstairs their legs technically they were healed. 118 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: Right. 119 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: You obviously have the scar tissue that you have to 120 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: deal with, But I will say the mental part of 121 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: it took a lot of time. Some players. It took 122 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: far longer than the year some of those guys took. 123 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: They were fine. There were different Those are the cats 124 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 2: who were both different, as the kids like to say. 125 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: But I think that is a huge portion of it. 126 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: I don't want to put a percentage on it because 127 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 2: it varies person by person, but a huge part of 128 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 2: the defensive back that is so reactionary. 129 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 3: It is how you handle things upstairs. 130 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, I wonder though, like you alluded 131 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: to the fact that Tradevius Wright has really been through 132 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: it with achilles and acls in the NFL, if he's 133 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: more adapt to bounce back quicker and understand, all Right, 134 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: I gotta go through whatever the rehab is, listen to 135 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: the trainers, and then once I'm back out there, once 136 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: the doctors tell me I'm ready to go, then I 137 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: got to be ready to play. The only silver lining 138 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: I would say, and I know going to talk about 139 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: this preseason game because that's what's coming ahead. But like 140 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: you kind of mentioned in the in the intro, that 141 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: the Bills are probably really looking forward to just starting 142 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,119 Speaker 1: the actual regular season with all these injuries that they've 143 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: had to go through in training camp in the preseason. 144 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: The silver lining I think could be that for a 145 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: team that has repeatedly preached and fans I think understand, 146 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: media understands too, to playing their best football in December 147 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: and January. This might thrust someone like Dorian Strong onto 148 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: the field and suddenly you're facing a two time MVP 149 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: in Lamar Jackson. You're playing high level wide receivers right away, 150 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: and maybe they'll be bumps and bruises, and there probably 151 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: will be some hiccups early on. But then suddenly when 152 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: you're in November and December and even in the playoffs, 153 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: you have gotten more reps and you're a little bit 154 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: more battle tested because we know how much of an 155 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: influx of young talent the Bills have on this defense, 156 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: and even though it might be shaky early on getting 157 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: those players reps, those first year pros reps might actually 158 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: pay some diviidt later in the season and into the postseason. 159 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 2: You just alluded to it about the Bills trying their 160 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: best to pivot towards the regular season once they get there. 161 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 2: Josh Allen is not playing in the preseason finale, the 162 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: first time in his entire career that he will not 163 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: take a single snap in the preseason. I understand one 164 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: of your quarterback to get preseason reps Cincinnati. 165 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 3: I understand why they're doing it. 166 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: They've been slow in every single September basically in Joe 167 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: Burrow's career, so they just want to try something different. 168 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: A lot of the other veteran quarterbacks around the league 169 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: haven't taken a snap this year. I believe even Patrick 170 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: Mahomes hasn't taken as many as he usually does. You know, 171 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: you know the Chiefs love to play their starters in 172 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 2: the preseason. I understand it from an extent where like, hey, 173 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: you have a new offensive line in front of me, 174 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 2: a new center group. Okay, let's get some reps in 175 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: live action and see how that works. 176 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 3: Well. 177 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: The Bills have all five of their offensive lineman returning, 178 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 2: so that doesn't really hold weight to me. And then 179 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: also they get so many reps in seven on seven, 180 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: one on one team period where Josh is getting a 181 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 2: lot of live reps. In that regard, also the joint 182 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: practice with the Bears, I'm sure what was helped as well. 183 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: Where do you stand on Josh Allen not playing in 184 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 2: the preseason. 185 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,239 Speaker 1: Man, I have always been the biggest advocate your key starters, 186 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: and most namely Josh Allen, the ragning MVP, does not 187 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 1: need to play in the preseason. I don't think it's 188 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: worth the injury risk you mentioned Joe Burrow, and I 189 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: understand it from a Bengals perspective that you pointed out 190 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: they've started off zero to two the last three seasons, 191 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: and it's either led to them not making the playoffs 192 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: or been a catalyst why they've been a lower seed 193 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. But man, watching that Monday night football 194 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: game against the Commanders, if I was a Bengals fan, 195 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: I would have been holding my brat that entire game. 196 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: He took some shots. There were a couple times where 197 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: it looked like he kind of got tackled awkwardly. You 198 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: don't want to see that for Josh Allen or for 199 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: any of the offensive linemen. I mean, the Bills were 200 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: so healthy upfront along their front five last year. That 201 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: was a key component to I think why the offense 202 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: was so efficient both through the air and on the ground. 203 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: So with Khalil Shakir injured, kind of Josh Allen go 204 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: to guy underneath that he has that established rapport with 205 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: better than anyone else on the roster. With him down 206 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: as well, I don't think it was necessarily worth the 207 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: risk for a quarterback that is well established in the system, 208 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: the raining MVP and has four of his first five 209 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: games at home. I think it's the right decision to 210 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: not play Josh Allen in the preseason. 211 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 2: And I know some people. When you watch that Joe 212 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 2: Burrow clip of him getting tossed around like a rag 213 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 2: doll in that preseason game, they'll say, well, Joe Burrow 214 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 2: put themselves in harm's way. It's hard to turn that 215 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 2: office as competitor. Like, it's still football and at the 216 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: end of the day, they're going to want to go 217 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: out there and compete. Imagine telling Josh Allen not to 218 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: go out there and compete. And I know that we've 219 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: seen him in the preseason in the past protect himself, 220 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 2: but imagine up the middle is third and six. You 221 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 2: really think he's gonna like baseball slide in and the 222 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: heat of the moment if there's like a guy who's 223 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: going low. I'm just saying it's kind of hard for 224 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: those guys to turn that competitive nature off. So I'm 225 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: all for Josh Allen set it out. Also, I don't 226 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 2: know if Sean McDermott went into this preset season with 227 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 2: this game plan. I think this was more so a 228 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: lot of guys are getting banged up. They really enjoyed 229 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: what they saw out in Chicago, and he said, you 230 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 2: know what, the risk does not outweigh the reward at all, 231 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:11,479 Speaker 2: Like you mentioned. 232 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think it's very astute to bring up 233 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: that joint practice because so like some of the reports 234 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: there were that it started off a little bit slowly 235 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: for the Bills offense, but like the second half of 236 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: that practice, Josh Allen really started to cook. Found Keon 237 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: Coleman down the field a couple times, Elijah Moore had 238 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: his best practice. So even though we didn't get to 239 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: see it and it wasn't graded by Pro Football Focus 240 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: anything like that, the coaches have all of that film. 241 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: I think if that practice went really poorly and Josh 242 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: Allen didn't look in sync with Keon Coleman or some 243 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: of the new weapons Josh Palmerray threw a touchdown to 244 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: as well, then maybe we would have seen him last 245 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 1: week in that game against the Bears ultimately, or maybe 246 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: even for a series on Saturday against the Buccaneers. But 247 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: it to me, it's just shows that during training camp, 248 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: the joint practice, Sean McDermott, Joe Brady, the entire coaching 249 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: staff and probably the front office feel comfortable with what 250 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: they have in Josh Allen, the reigning MVP. 251 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 2: Now, I haven't always been this way in terms of 252 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: starters not playing in the preseason, I've kind of felt like, Hey, 253 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: you need to callast your body up and get ready 254 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: for the riggers of football. Having said that, I'll say 255 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 2: the older that I've gotten, I'm saying the older I've gotten. 256 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: I'm only twenty seven, but the more experience I have 257 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: in this space, I just don't think that the injuries 258 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: that you can occur in this game that has one 259 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: hundred percent injury rate, I just don't think it's worth it. 260 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 2: And I came from the college ranks where I didn't 261 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: play a single preseason game, and I thought that we 262 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 2: came off fine Week one. I mean, and I never 263 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 2: felt like that was a slow to turn to how 264 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 2: we started the season, even as Syracuse where you know 265 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 2: we may not have the best years, but I promise 266 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 2: you it wasn't because we didn't play in the preseason 267 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 2: and we didn't tackle every single day. 268 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 3: Right, So yeah, I'm all for that. 269 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 2: I will say there are some starters that I would 270 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: like to see get some snaps, maybe a driver to 271 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: maybe even a third one if if the game turns 272 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 2: out the way one is obviously cold Bishop, I think 273 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: I would like to see him just get some more 274 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 2: time on task, not just based off of the play 275 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: he had last week, but he just hasn't had. 276 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 3: A lot of reps. 277 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 2: Sean McDermot has preached that to the choir over the 278 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: past two weeks along with Bishop. 279 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 3: Are there any other players as you would like to 280 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 3: see on Saturday? 281 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: Well, I guess I'll kind of segue that by saying 282 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: I think Sean McDermott has handled this preseason perfectly and 283 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: that TJ. Sanders and Dian Walker rookies are probably gonna 284 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: play a significant amount of snaps in their first seasons 285 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL, and we've seen them a lot in 286 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: the preseason. I think your point about Cole Bishop, he 287 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 1: was a second round pick a year ago, didn't get 288 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: that much time on the field due to injury last year, 289 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: and he's not keeping him on the sideline to just 290 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: make sure he gets to the regular season healthy. He's saying, hey, 291 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: when you're healthy, get out there. I think seeing more 292 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: of Taylor Rapp, who was injured at the beginning of 293 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: training camp and is really the only secure player in 294 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: that safety room, which we'll get to you later in 295 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: the show, just to get him connected with Cole Bishop, 296 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: I think, maybe more so than any other defense in 297 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 1: the NFL, this Bobby Babbage and Sean McDermott defense, Those 298 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: safeties have to be communicating know where the other one is. 299 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: I think that was a key component to why Micah 300 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: Hyde and Jordan Poyer were so good and we're all 301 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: pro players because they were like the same guy out there. 302 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: They were on the same wavelength, whether they were at 303 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: in the deep middle, whether they were playing in the box. 304 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: So to see more Taylor Raff, I think would make sense. 305 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: And I wouldn't mind seeing more another rookie of Landon 306 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: Jackson because with Michael Hoyt out those first six games, 307 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: he might be that rotational defensive end number four or 308 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: number five that does see some more reps on the 309 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: field in those key games in September and October. 310 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: Chris, we got to get off these defensive backs, you know, 311 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: you getting the hairs. They're standing up with my arms. 312 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 3: You know. 313 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: I love talking about my dbs, but I will say 314 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: I would love to see all three rookies out there. 315 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: I don't believe that Jordan Hancock will suit up tomorrow. 316 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: He's been out of practice all week with this shoulder injury, 317 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: which is tough to see. Consider it, and I thought 318 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: he had a really strong second preseason game in Chicago. 319 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: There are some receivers, not necessarily a Keon Coleman or 320 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 2: even a Josh Palmer, but some of the guys on 321 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: the other side of the ball I would like to 322 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: see suit up out there. 323 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 3: Tyrol Shavers. 324 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 2: We'll touch on him a little bit later on in 325 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: the show when we go through the entire roster, but 326 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 2: even you're Elijah Moore's of the world. I like Christian Wilkerson. 327 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: He's had a really really strong month as well. Those 328 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: are some guys on that side of the ball that 329 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 2: I'm really really intrigued to see how they finished the 330 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: preseason out strong tomorrow in the sun Side State. 331 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, how about Tyrol Shavers. Like to key in on him, 332 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: And yes, we will get to all the receivers later, 333 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: But there was so much momentum for him after training camp, 334 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: after having multiple training camps the last couple of years 335 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: where he was always a standout. He catches the screen 336 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: pass and the season finale last year goes for a 337 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: touchdown and the Bills have just really liked him. They 338 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: developed him on the bottom of the roster. He kind 339 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: of reminds me a lot of Alec Anderson, who's become 340 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: a key in those jumbo packages as the sixth offensive 341 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: lineman that he was always waiting in the wings and 342 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: you would always hear that the coaching staff loves him, 343 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: but he really wasn't on the field much. Suddenly last 344 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: season he became the new David Edwards and was a 345 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: really important piece. I wouldn't be shocked if Tyrell Shavers 346 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: becomes that wide receiver four or five who actually earns 347 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: a legitimate role on this offense. He didn't really get 348 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: that many targets against Chicago. The offense was kind of 349 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: an abomination, and a lot of that was due to 350 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: the pressure that Mike White and Mitch Trubisky saw. We 351 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: saw the one back shoulder early in the game. That 352 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: was really it. I want to see him get four 353 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: or five or six targets to say, hey, look, there 354 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: may be a game this season where we need to 355 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: lean on you, and if you can give us three 356 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: catches for forty five yards, that's going to be a 357 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: huge boost to this offense. So good call on Shavers. 358 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: Christian Wilkerson as well, who's kind of that other big 359 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: bodied receiver that can play on the outside. 360 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: I really want to see Tyrol Shavers on punt as well, 361 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 2: because that's also going to be a big reason why 362 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 2: he does or does not make the fifty three man roster. 363 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: Going around the NFL for a bit here, there's some 364 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: fascinating news on this Friday, but we can't go any 365 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 2: further without addressing what's going on in Dallas. 366 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 3: Texas right now. 367 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones is going on like a media tour of 368 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: things that are going on in this negotiation with his 369 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 2: star pass rusher Micah High. I mean Michael Parsons. Excuse me, 370 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 2: long story short, Michael Parsons is entering the final year 371 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 2: of his rookie contract, and let's just say that the negotiations. 372 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 3: Are a little contentious is a word I would use. 373 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: Even if you thought the drama, Yeah, if you thought 374 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: the drama couldn't get any worse, well, he poured gasoline 375 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 2: on all of that over the past forty eight hours. 376 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 2: He went on Michael Irvins podcast yesterday, the Hall of 377 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 2: Fame Wide Receiver, and a lot of quotes that were juicy, 378 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,479 Speaker 2: but one that sticks out, obviously, he said when Jerry 379 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 2: said he sent the details of the contract to David 380 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 2: Mullagetta Michael Parson's agent. Jerry said, quote, the agent told 381 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 2: us to stick it up here, you know what, Jerry. 382 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: Unbelievable, Jerry being Jerry. 383 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 2: These negotiations, Chris, have just been I think even surpassed 384 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 2: some of the even more high profile negotiations that come 385 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 2: out of Dallas in recent times. 386 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: I agree. I mean, there was the Zeke Elliott, there 387 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: was obviously Deak Prescott, there was even before that Amari 388 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: Cooper Ceedee Lamb. This one is above and beyond in 389 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: terms of sheer insanity from Jerry Jones that he, like 390 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 1: you're saying, he's going on like a media tour as 391 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: the owner, and we know no owner likes being in 392 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: the limelight and like desires being in the limelight more 393 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: than Jerry Jones, like after a win, after a loss, 394 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: he wants to be the first guy in that media 395 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: scrum that everyone's talking to. What I don't understand about this, 396 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: and it just seems like Jerry's kind of like telling 397 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: on himself. His repeated narrative or anecdote with this Parsons 398 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: contract talk is that he basically was trying to just 399 00:18:55,640 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: negotiate with Parsons himself without the agent there and is 400 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: like mad that Micah Parsons didn't just sign the contract 401 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 1: without actually conversing with his agent, which is why he's 402 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: his agent, Like he he's the one that's going to 403 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: advocate and knows all the financial details and all the 404 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: legal jargon that a twenty six year old edge rusher 405 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: does not necessarily need to know. So it's weird that 406 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is kind of like, hey, we tried to 407 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: get this deal done without the agent, and I can't 408 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: believe the agent turned it down. Like that's exactly why 409 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 1: that agent, and he is one of the biggest agents 410 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL, is there with Michaeh Parson. So it's 411 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: a crazy situation he's holding in right now in Dallas. 412 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: And I think at his age, seeing that he's entering 413 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: his prime and how productive he's been in his first 414 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: four seasons. He's a top five defensive player in the NFL, 415 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if I'll ultimately get traded this late 416 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: in the game, this close to the season, and that 417 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna want, you know, maybe forty million per year, 418 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: like around the Miles Garrett deal, and then you have 419 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: to offer multiple first round picks to Dallas to get him. 420 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: But this is just not a good precedent that has 421 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: not only just been set right now, but is kind 422 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: of the norm in Dallas under Jerry Jones. 423 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 2: Jerry is trying to violate the CBA by not negotiating 424 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: yeah with the agent. 425 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 3: I think that's the part that's fascinating to me. 426 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 2: He is publicly telling the world I am violating the CBA. 427 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 2: I refuse to talk with the agent. This is beyond 428 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 2: Jerry being Jerry. He also said on Michael Irvans's podcast, 429 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 2: basically Derek Parsons to sit out and say, hey, we 430 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: got three years to figure this out, which implies you 431 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: can set out this year if you want where which 432 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 2: is your final year of your rookie deal, then we 433 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 2: can franchise tag you two more years after that. So 434 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 2: obviously I don't think it will go to that extent, 435 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: although I will say Dak Prescott went to the wire 436 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 2: and franchise and pulled that off and eventually he became 437 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 2: the highest paid quarterback in football because of it. But 438 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 2: I just don't understand then the lengths that Jerry is 439 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 2: going to make all of this make the s fiasco happen. 440 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 2: I understand the he wants the Cowboys to be in 441 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 2: the limelight. I get it from that perspective. One on 442 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 2: eighteen that has a lot of high profile guys, and 443 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 2: I'm sure they want to compete for the division this year. 444 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 2: Having your best player on the sideline watching and Jim 445 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 2: Schwartz in a hoodie is not good precedent, and that's 446 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 2: not good and not healthy for your football team. 447 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 3: I don't get that. 448 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: It should be in my opinion, Micah, you can get 449 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: a one percent markup on what TJ watches got in 450 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 2: terms of the annual annual average salary and it shouldn't 451 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 2: be that complicated after that. But Jerry's like, nah, we 452 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 2: need to draw this out for the theatrics and ratings. 453 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 2: At this point, I don't get it at all. 454 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,719 Speaker 1: There are so many layers to this, and I'll just 455 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: quickly say that you're right from a football angle. I 456 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: think Jerry presents himself as like this ultimate owner that 457 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: just wants to win more than anyone else. But clearly 458 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: that's not the case, because you're right. If he's on 459 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 1: the sidelines. Name another defensive on the Dallas Cowboys, DeMarcus 460 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 1: Lawrence is in Seattle. They have a lot of young 461 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: players on that defensive line outside of him, so that 462 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: will be a significant hindrance to that pass rush if 463 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons is not on the field. And secondly, it 464 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 1: is not difficult to understand, and Brandon Bean has like 465 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: written the book on this. If you feel good about 466 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: a player and you know culture wise, development wise, he's 467 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: fits sign him, Sign your Greg Russo, sign your Terrell Bernard, 468 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: Khalil Shakir Early Michaeh Parsons is one of the easiest 469 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: open and shut cases that you have in the NFL. 470 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,719 Speaker 1: Why they didn't get this done, this deal done before 471 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett and before TJ. Watt, I really think is 472 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: like front office managerial mal practice from Jerry Jones and 473 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: Company in Dallas. 474 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: And Mike has said a few weeks back that he 475 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 2: wanted to sign last year and his agent said no, no, no, like, 476 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: let's wait and wait this out a little bit so 477 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 2: you can get more money. But mikel was like, no, 478 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 2: I want to get this out of the way and 479 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 2: be a team guy so I don't have to worry 480 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: about this any longer. And then apparently Jerry was like, cool, 481 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 2: you just got to put it down on a napkin. 482 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,239 Speaker 2: And that's good enough for me, even though he's like, hey, 483 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 2: I bought the Dallas Cowboys that way, why can't you 484 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 2: sign your contract this way? It doesn't make a whole 485 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 2: lot of sense to me. I'll say that, but I 486 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 2: do want to mention about the contract portion. I believe 487 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 2: the Nick Bosa had the highest annual average for a 488 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 2: defensive end of a few months back or whatever. Maybe 489 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 2: it was Max Crosby around thirty five million per year. Well, 490 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 2: by waiting, that's six million dollars that Jerry Jones per 491 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 2: year is just basically wasted on just ratings and getting 492 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 2: of an attention for the Dallas Cowboys. I don't get 493 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 2: it from a monetary perspective. I don't get it from 494 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 2: a football perspective. I guess business wise, he's going on 495 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 2: this media tour first take Michael Irvins podcast. He might 496 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 2: be on Good Morning in America tomorrow for all I know. 497 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 2: But it just doesn't make a whole lot of sense. 498 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 2: And this is beyond Like I said, I can't reiterate 499 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 2: it enough. Jerry being Jerry, and. 500 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 1: I don't get it too, because like, how much more 501 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: does Jerry think the Cowboys need to be in the spotlight. 502 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: It's not like there's some small market team and he's 503 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: young owner and they're trying to get on primetime like 504 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: they're the cowboys, like they're already there, and Jerry's like 505 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: into his eighties now. Like it's just absolutely baffling. And 506 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons I think has all the right to be 507 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: holding in right now, because again it is a very obvious, 508 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: like he is that franchise cornerstone that you don't let 509 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: walk and you give in to his demands because he 510 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: is that much of a difference maker. He doesn't take 511 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: plays off, he's great against the run. He's an elite 512 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: level pass rusher even when he gets double, Like it 513 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: should be so easy. And I think the thirty other 514 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 1: actual owners in the NFL would have gotten this deal 515 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: done months and months ago, maybe even like you mentioned 516 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,360 Speaker 1: a year ago, when Parsons wanted to get it done. 517 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 2: I'm sure Bills fans were like, come here, please please. 518 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: If you don't want them, we'll take care of him. 519 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: Brandon being will make him a very very very handsome man. 520 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 2: If you guys don't, you guys don't appreciate him down 521 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 2: there in Dallas, it's just we can go hours on 522 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: just how the fiasco is down there in Dallas. I 523 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: will say the documentary about them right now is pretty 524 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 2: pretty cool. 525 00:24:58,400 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 3: I enjoy it because I'm good. 526 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 2: I think I didn't live through it in the nineties, 527 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 2: so I'm really enjoying the first iteration of the Jerry 528 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 2: Cowboys in the nineties. We want to bring you all 529 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 2: at home into this show with our One Bills Live 530 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 2: Friday fan mailbag.

Make sure you guys keep sending them in. 532 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 2: We'll touch on them and a whole whole lot more. 533 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: We got to say of the Bill's roster, who we 534 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: think will make the team any surprise cut Some guys 535 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 2: who maybe on the bubble here there and Saturday will 536 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 2: go a long way and to side in their roster spot. 537 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 2: We'll touch that and a whole lot more. Coming up 538 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 2: next after the break on One Bill's Live. 539 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 3: Welcome back to One Bill's Live. 540 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 2: I'm Carl Jones hosting and man the Ship day alongside 541 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 2: Christian pass So No, Chris Brown and Steve Tasker. They're 542 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 2: down and on their way to the Sunshine State along 543 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 2: with Maddy glaff Make sure you guys keep hitting us 544 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 2: up in the Friday mail bag. Already looking at some 545 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: of these questions I can't wait to get to later 546 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 2: on in the show. 547 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 3: Make sure you guys keep hitting those in. 548 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 2: I wanna start with our state of the roster heading 549 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 2: into next Tuesday's cut day, a day that I'm sure 550 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 2: a lot of the players themselves are dreading, but also 551 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 2: also on the outside is very interesting to see what 552 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 2: turns into what and who shakes out where. I'm wanna 553 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 2: start with the quarterbacks. Josh Allen's making the team surprise. 554 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 2: Get that out of the way, everybody but behind him. 555 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: I think it's a position battle that, quite frankly, hasn't 556 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: been as contested over the past few years. I would 557 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 2: say it hasn't been as cutting. It's been more cut 558 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 2: and dry. I think this year there's been some back 559 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 2: and forth. I was there at Saint John Fisher, and 560 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 2: I thought Mike White looked really excellent in terms of 561 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 2: how the ball jumped out of his hand. And I 562 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: believe that Joe Brady or Sean McDermott, forgure which one 563 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 2: maybe Brandon being on hard knocks, alluded to how the 564 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 2: ball just jumps out of his hand and looks different 565 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: coming out, but then he gets to start in the 566 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: second preseason game and for a litany of reasons, it 567 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 2: was some mispasses, protection upfront wasn't great, receivers weren't getting opened, 568 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: some drop passes, just things then look very cohesive when 569 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 2: he got to start in the second preseason game. What 570 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 2: has been your evaluation of that backup quarterback position this offseason. 571 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there are two different quarterbacks Mike White 572 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: and Mitch Trubisky and Steve and I mentioned this a 573 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: few weeks ago, that assessment of Mike White in his 574 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: arm is I think noticeably better than Mitch Trubisky's that 575 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: from inside the pocket, he can really let it rip 576 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: down the field. He can really crank up the RPMs 577 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: at the intermediate level. The movement skills are not the 578 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: same as Trubisky and Trubisky. While I can't say he 579 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: has this amazing grasp of the offense, he has been 580 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 1: here in Buffalo on two separate occasions. Now it feels 581 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: like because of his starting experience relative to Mike White, 582 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,120 Speaker 1: which is way way different, way more games that he's 583 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: been on the field, I think it's Trubisky's job to 584 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 1: lose at this point, and I would be surprised unless 585 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: we see something, you know, drastically different from what we 586 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 1: saw in Chicago that I think Trubisky will probably be 587 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: the backup and probably deserves to be the backup. He 588 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: can spread the football around a little bit quicker, make 589 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: those better decisions, not take as many hits, and then 590 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: if protection is it perfect, he has a little bit 591 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: of that mobility to create off structure, or like we 592 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: saw in that long throw in the preseason Week one 593 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: against the Giants, he can bounce around in the pocket, navigate, 594 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 1: slide to his lap right, or move up in the 595 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: pocket to still make throws down the field. 596 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 2: I will say this in terms of his athletic ability 597 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 2: and his ability to make plays out of structure a 598 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 2: little bit. That helps him a lot in the preseason 599 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 2: when you're playing behind the second and third string offensive line, 600 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 2: where someone like Mike White, as we saw in that 601 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: first half, he's not as mobile, so when things aren't 602 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 2: dressed up to a t, he's not as able to 603 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: quite frankly, just make a playout of nothing. 604 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 3: And mister Bisky has that ability. 605 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 2: Now if they're both behind the starting offensive line, and 606 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: as we all know the Bills old line is if 607 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 2: it's not elite, it's a tick below that. I don't 608 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: know if necessarily that'd be as big of an issue 609 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 2: in terms of Mike White's mobility. I will say though, 610 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 2: when I watched Mike White, I would have liked to 611 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 2: see a little bit more accuracy in that second game 612 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 2: in Chicago. I think that was the one thing where 613 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 2: I think he missed a throw early on to a 614 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 2: lot to believe in the right flat or whatever. Those 615 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 2: are some of the throws right down the right sideline 616 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: to a Tyrol Shaver. I want to see those throws 617 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 2: be a little bit more pitch and catch. I guess 618 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 2: you can say, although we are looking at the first 619 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: preseason game here where he hit a nice, beautiful backshoulder 620 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 2: ball to the Leviso which I believe was a two 621 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 2: point conversion. But I still think there's some some more 622 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 2: I want to see out of Mike White in his 623 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 2: last preseason game to see if he can maybe close 624 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 2: that gap and become QB two. 625 00:29:58,520 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 3: Yeah. 626 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 1: I think that's a really good point to bring that up, 627 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: and I'm assuming that's how Mike White would be selling 628 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: himself if he was sitting in this meeting room, which 629 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: it's kind of fun that we're doing this because this 630 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: is what the Bill's coaching staff is probably doing right now, 631 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: even before this preseason game, going through the roster, giving 632 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: their opinions on these players. You're right that behind a 633 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: quality offensive line, Mike White can be a more impressive passer. 634 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: We remember a couple of years ago with the Jets, 635 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: he had that three hundred plus yard game. Then he 636 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: actually played the Bills and they kind of came crashing 637 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: down to Earth, but he showed that he can really 638 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: distribute the football and he's stuck in this league despite 639 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: being a Western Kentucky guy because he does have an 640 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: above average NFL arm. Your point too, about his accuracy. 641 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,479 Speaker 1: That has to be where he sells himself. Where if 642 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: he's going to just be an inside the pocket thrower, 643 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: he can't be missing throws in the flat or you know, 644 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: those high percentage throws cannot be low or behind the 645 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: receiver so he gets tackled or it's incomplete. So I 646 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,479 Speaker 1: think Mike White could close the gap a little bit 647 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: if he showcases better ball placement behind the hopefully what 648 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: will be a better unit protecting him against the Buccaneers. 649 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: I want to make this abundant league clear. 650 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: If seventeen has to miss a substantial amount of time, 651 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 2: the offense just will not be able to function at 652 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 2: the elite level it was last year. That's just for 653 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 2: any quarterback, any offense around the league. The drop office 654 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: is too great. There isn't a backup in football that 655 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: could hold down the ford for two, three months, or 656 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: even the entire season if the starter goes down. 657 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 3: But I do think where the backup is valuable. Let's 658 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 3: say a. 659 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 2: Quarterback has to go get a concussion check, or he 660 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: has to go out of the game for a little bit. 661 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 3: Maybe it's a half, maybe it is a week or two. 662 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 2: Do you have a competent backup that can hold down 663 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 2: the ford and make sure things don't fall apart. I 664 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 2: think about a few years back in the Kansas City 665 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: Chiefs where Patrick Mahomes left the game against the Cleveland Browns, 666 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 2: and I believe their backup quarterback was Chad Henny. They 667 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 2: didn't ask him to be superman because you just hold 668 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 2: down the ford and. 669 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 3: Obviously and that was the stakes were a lot greater. 670 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 2: But can you hold down the ford and get us 671 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 2: to the next week I think that's where the value 672 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 2: in having a reliable, trustworthy quarterback, whether that is mis 673 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 2: Trubisky or Mike White. Is there a quarterback that, when 674 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 2: you lay it out like that, that you feel more 675 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 2: comfortable with if you tell them, like, hey, whether it's 676 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 2: a half a week two at most, they can hold 677 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: down the fort and make sure things don't fall apart. 678 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's really good to paint it that way, 679 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: that Trubisky if he had to play, if Mike White 680 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: had to play a long time there, you know, the 681 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: offense would have to drastically change. The game plan would 682 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: be different. I can't say that I go into games, 683 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 1: even the preseason, where I think Trubisky is just gonna 684 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: light it up. But I think in this everybody eats 685 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: mentality that that being the core philosophy of this team, 686 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,959 Speaker 1: just distributing the football and maybe on rollouts being you know, 687 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: getting him away from some pressure by design. I think 688 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: he can operate the offense just a little bit better 689 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: than Mike White, but it wouldn't like I don't think 690 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: there's a drastic difference between the two. And I think 691 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: the fact that Trubisky, he is the incumbent and needed 692 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: to be outplayed in training camp in the preseason. That's 693 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: the reason, more so than just how good he's been 694 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: that I think he's ultimately going to be the backup, 695 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: and I feel a little bit better about Trubisky being 696 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: able to play a half or one or two games 697 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: and keep the Bills, you know, still in it relatively speaking. 698 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a good point as well in 699 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 2: terms of the playbook where you won't have to change 700 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 2: as much in terms of boots and rollouts and sprint 701 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 2: out action because mister Trubisky, he's not Josh Allen, but 702 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: he's a good athlete in his own right. I want 703 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 2: to move on to the running backs now, where I 704 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 2: think the top three names your James Cook, Ray Davis 705 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 2: as well as Ty Johnson. 706 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 3: Those guys are solidified. They will make the fifty three 707 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 3: man roster. 708 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 2: But then after that, I think that's where things can 709 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 2: get a little interesting. Maybe someone else can sneak their 710 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 2: way onto the roster. Frank Goreon Junior is a name 711 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 2: that comes to mind. He's played a lot in this 712 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: preseason with the Bills risking the top three guys and 713 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 2: then Darrnton Evans. 714 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 3: Injured at the moment he showed some flat well. 715 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 2: I think he's even looked better than last year, where 716 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: he had a pretty darn good preseason in his own right. 717 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 2: Last week he did have the fumble, but as the 718 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 2: running the rock as well as out of the backfield, 719 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 2: he's looked really impressive. 720 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: Absolutely. I mean, he's been one of my favorite players 721 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: to watch the last two preseasons in Buffalo. What's really interesting, 722 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:18,359 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna I always go back to my draft 723 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: roots when I'm on the show. He did not test 724 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: very well coming out of Southern Miss, and I think 725 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: that was the core reason why Frank Gore Junior was 726 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: not selected two years ago. Everything he did on the 727 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,919 Speaker 1: field at Southern Mess, his yards after the catch, yards 728 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: after contact, yards per carry, misstackle force rate all very high. 729 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: It's just that he didn't test very well. What's interesting 730 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: is that on the field he looks sudden. He looks 731 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: like he can change directions in a hurry, and he 732 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: is not someone that linebackers or safeties want to see 733 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: catching a ball in the flat, because he can make 734 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: defenders miss just with his quick feet alone, and we've 735 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: seen it between the tackles. He certainly was that runner 736 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: in college. Even though he's smaller, he certainly has that 737 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: ability to find lanes with good vision. He's someone that 738 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,760 Speaker 1: I'm kind of rooting for to maybe make this roster 739 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: or be the first guy off the practice squad. And 740 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: I think. I mean, we were just talking about can 741 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: a quarterback hole down the fort? You don't really feel 742 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: great about that if you're any team, especially when you 743 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: have the reigning MVP at quarterback. But I think running back. 744 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: I think if there was ever a game and we 745 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 1: saw it last year James Cook was injured, Ray Davis 746 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: goes over one hundred total yards from scrimmage in that 747 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: Monday night win over the Jets, if Frank Core had 748 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: to play behind this Bills like you said, and I 749 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 1: agree with you, elite level blocking unit, I think Frank 750 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 1: Gore could give the Bills the production that they ultimately need. 751 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: I think he's learned the system, understands where he needs 752 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: to run. There's no you know, hey, he doesn't know 753 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: the playbook yet, he doesn't know which gap to run 754 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 1: through and looks just like an NFL running back at 755 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 1: this point. So I've been really impressed with him minus 756 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: the fumble, especially with what he can do out of 757 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: the backfield that we've heard Joe Brady and company say, Look, 758 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: the backs have to be able to catch the football 759 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 1: in this offense. He's on that. 760 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:00,720 Speaker 3: Well. 761 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 2: His ability to just put his foot in the ground 762 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 2: and get upfield, I think it's what's impressed me the most. 763 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 2: And you see a lot of young backs when they 764 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 2: coming to the NFL. I mean it's from every level, 765 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 2: whether it's a running back fromddle school to high school, 766 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 2: then the jump from high school to the collegiate level. 767 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 3: A lot of dancing obviously, you see it a lot. 768 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 2: When you look at draft prospects coming out. It's kind 769 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: of hard to project them into the National Football League 770 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 2: because you can't really dance in the league. I mean 771 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 2: unless you're Sae Kwon Barkley, but Frank gorg Junior, it's 772 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 2: not say Kwon Barkley. There's not a whole lot of 773 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 2: dancing that you can do in the National Football League. 774 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 2: And his ability you see it in the preseason where like, hey, 775 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 2: he's hitting that b gap right foot down, boom, I'm 776 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 2: getting up field, whether it's for three or four yards. 777 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 2: I'm not dancing around this. I'm not second guessing it. 778 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 2: And I think that's where I've really enjoyed seeing Frank 779 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 2: Gore Junior develop this entire training camp because obviously he 780 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 2: got a lot of reps back at Saint John Fisher 781 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: with the James Cook contract situation. The other thing I 782 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 2: will mention about Frank Gore Junior and we're going to 783 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 2: talk about this with a lot of these backup the 784 00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 2: roster guys, is the special teams component of it tomorrow 785 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 2: down there in the Sunshine State. I want to see 786 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: what teams is he on. 787 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 3: Now. 788 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 2: I don't know how many teams he's going to play 789 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 2: because he's probably gonna get twenty carries, so I don't 790 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 2: know how much work there and want to give him 791 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: in terms of punt or koar or kickoff. But I 792 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 2: am intrigued if he's going to be a guy who 793 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 2: makes this roster, he's not gonna get a lot of 794 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 2: carries on Sunday. How else are you going to make 795 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 2: an impact and get a jersey on those days? So 796 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 2: I want I'm gonna be locked in to see twenty 797 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 2: and a lot of these other guys. Where are they 798 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: lining up on special teams reps? Can you make a 799 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 2: big play or do they trust you? To be a 800 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 2: pump protector in a certain unit. And I don't want 801 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 2: to say what hurts him, but you have someone in 802 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 2: his room sort of with Reggie Gilliam that kind of 803 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: does some of those similar things on special teams. But 804 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 2: that's one thing that I am going to be intrigued 805 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 2: with Frank gorg Junior tomorrow. 806 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm really glad that you brought that up. And 807 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,560 Speaker 1: I can understand it's the preseason, all right, the Bills 808 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: are getting ready to punt. You're going to go refill 809 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 1: your drink or go to the bathroom. I would just 810 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 1: pay attention not to necessarily what happens on the punt 811 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 1: or on the kickoff, but see who's out there because 812 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: those players, especially if you're like who's number twenty, who's 813 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: number thirty five, seeing who's on the field that definitely 814 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: boosts their chances to ultimately make the team. And I 815 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: wonder with Frank Gore everything that you mentioned about just 816 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,319 Speaker 1: getting up field, getting north south, not dancing. I think 817 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: he has a pretty good teacher in his dad, who 818 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: was the consonment just get up field, get north south, 819 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:31,919 Speaker 1: don't dance around, and just was a career overachiever. After 820 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,880 Speaker 1: all those injuries at Miami and is one of the 821 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: all time leading rushers in NFL history. You almost see 822 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: not only do I think they look exactly alike, it's 823 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: kind of crazy. They run very similarly. Frank Gore Junior 824 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: is just a little bit smaller and not qut as 825 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: explosive as his dad, but is a very no nonsense 826 00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: style of running. I think bodes well for today's NFL. 827 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 2: Actually sat down with Frank Gorge Junior last week. We 828 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 2: just talked about some questions for our segment we do 829 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 2: over at Channel four, and I acts out his pops 830 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 2: and I was like, Hey, how is it like with 831 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 2: your dad being a NFL player and all that, and 832 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 2: what is your fondest memory of him when you're growing up? 833 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 2: He goes, boy, he used to be so nervous watching 834 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 2: me play. And I'm like you me and your father 835 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 2: is one of the best running backs over the past 836 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 2: twenty five years, and he's nervous. 837 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: He goes, yeah, because he's scared of what's going to 838 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 3: happen to me. I'm like, Lord, have mercy. 839 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,240 Speaker 2: I really really enjoy their friendship from Afar relationship, excuse 840 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 2: me from AFAR. I really like getting that tipbit on 841 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 2: how they kind of interact a little bit. But yes, 842 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 2: twenty is someone that I'm locked in on. I want 843 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 2: to see how he plays tomorrow out of the back, 844 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 2: but I do I want you to elaborate that on 845 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 2: just really quickly though. Running the rock is one thing, 846 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 2: but if he's going to be someone who actually makes 847 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: a difference, he's going to have to make his many 848 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 2: impacts as possible run the rock, special teams and then 849 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 2: catching the ball as well. 850 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 3: Yeah. 851 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: Absolutely, And I think not only just being that security blanket, 852 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: and we haven't really seen him targeted down the field, 853 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: but doing something with it. Not just catching balls in 854 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: the flat and then running out of bounds and making 855 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: it a three yard gain. We've seen him instantly turn 856 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,760 Speaker 1: into running back mode and make guys miss, and weirdly, 857 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: because he isn't as big as his dad and clearly 858 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: as powerful defenders seem to just slip off him. He 859 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 1: has a lot of power in his lower half. That 860 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 1: was the case at Southern Miss, and through two preseason 861 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: games he is over three yards after contact per rush, 862 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: and that I mean, of course small sample size. It's 863 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:31,279 Speaker 1: the preseason against backups, but that is a really high 864 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 1: number that if you're at that three yards after contact 865 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: per rush total in the regular season, you're an elite 866 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 1: level back. So Frank Gore Junior, even though you don't 867 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: think of him as a Ray Davis as a Derek 868 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 1: Henry type, obviously, that has a lot of power. He 869 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 1: has fantastic contact balance, So I think being able to 870 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: catch the football and it's just a throw into the 871 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: flat where the quarterback doesn't want to take ahead and 872 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 1: wants to get a positive gain. That's maybe a two 873 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,479 Speaker 1: yard throw and he can turn it into a six 874 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: or seven yard game. That's usually the difference in ultimately 875 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: punting or moving the chain. So I think he brings 876 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: that value that he is very much that lightning bug 877 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: that has the contact balance to pick up extra yardage 878 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:13,399 Speaker 1: when it' seemingly not there. 879 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 3: You touched on it earlier. I played defensive back at Syracuse. 880 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 2: I vividly remember the times where a running back was 881 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 2: in the flat and I didn't want to tackle him. 882 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 2: Frank Gore Joyr. Was the type of running back that 883 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 2: I was gonna o lay and let them get that 884 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:23,760 Speaker 2: first down. 885 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 1: Exactly. 886 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. 887 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 2: All right, make sure you guys continue to send your 888 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 2: questions in on our Friday fan mail bag, and look 889 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 2: at this tweet sheet. 890 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 3: They're coming in. Please keep sending them. 891 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 2: We're gonna touch on the receivers as well as the 892 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:37,720 Speaker 2: rest of the defense in terms of the Bill's state 893 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 2: of the roster. Don't go anywhere. We'll be right back 894 00:41:41,040 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 2: on One Bill's Live. Welcome all back to One Bill's Live. 895 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 2: Carl Jones joined alongside Christoph Passo, No, Chris Brown, and 896 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 2: Steve Tasker today, so we're calling up from the minor 897 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 2: leagues to hopefully hold down the four today and make 898 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,879 Speaker 2: it as smooth sailing as possible. Time to dive into 899 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 2: our tweet sheet on this beautiful Friday. Question from Harold 900 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 2: do you think both Shavers and Wilkerson? Tyrol Shavers and 901 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 2: Christian Wilkerson can both make the fifty three man roster. 902 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 2: Thank you for sending that in today, Harold. I want 903 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 2: to quickly say I'm very impressed with both of them, 904 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 2: but I don't think it's any pathway for both to 905 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 2: make the fifty three man roster. Tyrol Shavers I think 906 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 2: has the best path unless something drastic happens Saturday. And 907 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 2: I'm knocking on wood for those who can't see me 908 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,879 Speaker 2: right now, and I don't want anyone to get hurt. 909 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 2: But unless something drastic happens tomorrow, I don't see a 910 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 2: pathway for Christian Wilkerson to make this team. 911 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 1: I don't think so either. I know there was a 912 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: lot of bars from training camp. Hasn't done a ton 913 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: in the preseason, and you mentioned it earlier. I think 914 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: Shaver's outside of just the fact that he's been this 915 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: homegrown guy that was an undrafted pre agent a few 916 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: years ago that has made some plays. His ability on 917 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: special teams as that Gunner, I think ultimately helps him 918 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,799 Speaker 1: a little. I know Christian. I think Christian Wilkerson plays 919 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: a little bit on special teams, but he's not returning kicks. 920 00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's made any you know, standout 921 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 1: plays on fourth downs yet. So I think because of 922 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: you have Josh Palmer, Khalil Shakir, Kean Coleman, Elijah Moore, 923 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel, we can talk about them at the top 924 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: of the hour about like there's some mystery about who's 925 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: going to be that wide receiver four. But I think 926 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: it would be a long shot to see both of 927 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 1: those players on the fifty three men roster entering Week one. 928 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm right with you. I just don't see a pathway. 929 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 3: I don't want to. 930 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 2: Ever say anything is not possible at all, but I 931 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 2: think it's highly unlikely that both of them are going 932 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,280 Speaker 2: to be on the fifty three menters roster come Tuesday. 933 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: Question from Connor, who are the biggest roster bubble players 934 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 2: either to make the roster or get cut from the roster? 935 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,439 Speaker 2: His two are Tyrol Shaver as well as Jimmy Charlo 936 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 2: hard knocks Darling from this past week really really good episode. 937 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 2: With Bailen Specter gone, he seems to be adding a 938 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,120 Speaker 2: big impact on special team. Special teams is always of 939 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 2: the most importance in the National Football League. 940 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 3: I think Tyrol Shavers. 941 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 2: Is one that we're all gonna be watching over the 942 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 2: next twenty four hours or so even beyond to see 943 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,720 Speaker 2: where he ends up and how he plays Saturday. Jimmy Charlo, 944 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: I think it's interesting. I don't know how much. I mean, listen, 945 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 2: crazier things have happened. He hasn't been here a long time, 946 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,240 Speaker 2: but like, hey, if he makes a huge impact tomorrow 947 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,800 Speaker 2: on special teams, I don't think it's out of the question. 948 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 2: But then now the numbers at linebacker get a little 949 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 2: funny in terms of the roster bubble players that I'm 950 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,959 Speaker 2: looking for. In terms of Saturday, it's the cornerback room now. 951 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,399 Speaker 2: The Trey White injury and we don't know how long 952 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,239 Speaker 2: it is. I don't want to We don't know the 953 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 2: status of an injury at this moment. But before he 954 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 2: got hurt, it was very crowded because once again we 955 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 2: don't know the status of Max Harris sin is he 956 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 2: going to begin the season on the pup list. But 957 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 2: then there's Dain Jackson, There's Dwyane Strong, There's DeMarcus Ingram, 958 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 2: all of those guys back there. You can throw Daikon 959 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 2: Hardy in there as well. I wanted to see how 960 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 2: that shakes out. So for me, it's not really one player, 961 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 2: it's the entire cornerback room at large. 962 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 1: I'll stick at wide receiver that I alluded to this earlier. 963 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 1: I want to see Curtis Samuel and or Elijah Moore 964 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 1: on the field making some plays because I was really 965 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:30,439 Speaker 1: excited about that right after the draft signing of Elijah Moore. 966 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: He's been productive on two really bad teams, the Jets 967 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 1: and the Browns. That did not have good quarterback play. 968 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: The last couple of seasons, there wasn't a lot of 969 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 1: buzz from camp on Elijah Moore. The joint practice apparently 970 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,760 Speaker 1: was like the one where kind of the light bulb 971 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 1: came on and the reporters on hand there in Chicago 972 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: were like, Oh, that's why this guy was an early 973 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 1: second round pick. I haven't really seen it though in 974 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 1: the preseason games to this point, and we haven't really 975 00:45:56,680 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 1: just seen Curtis Samuel on the field last season and 976 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 1: he was kind of the big ticket signing for this 977 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 1: team at wide receiver, and all we heard is say, hey, 978 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: you know his foot, he was never fully healthy. Then 979 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: late in this season and in that playoff game against Denver, 980 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel was apparently pretty healthy, made some plays, and 981 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,720 Speaker 1: Brandon Bean spoke to you know, hey, look if he's healthy, 982 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: he's still young, he's still explosive. He's kind of this 983 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 1: gadget guy that can stretch the field. I want to 984 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: see one or two of those receivers make some plays 985 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,320 Speaker 1: because I think at this point that wide receiver four, 986 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,839 Speaker 1: which on most teams is like, hey, wide receiver four, 987 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 1: how many targets is he getting? I think it matters 988 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: on this Bill's team because of the everybody eats mentality, 989 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: and they're kind of, maybe alongside Josh Palmer, trying to 990 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:44,959 Speaker 1: replace the Amari Cooper Max Collins production from a season ago. 991 00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: So I want to see I think Corner's a great 992 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 1: position to also pay attention to, but I want to 993 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,240 Speaker 1: see Curtis Samuel and or Elijah Moore make some plays 994 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: on Saturday. 995 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 2: Thank you Connor for sending that one in. Yeah, Elijah Moore, 996 00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 2: He's been with a lot of run with the ones, 997 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 2: but he's to run with the twos, So you never 998 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 2: know how that really goes in terms of how the 999 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 2: coaches are leaning in that direction. I imagine a lot 1000 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 2: of the twos reps is because of the fact that 1001 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 2: he's going to play in the preseason with Mitch tr 1002 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 2: Whisky and Slash or Mike White. We're gonna touch on 1003 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 2: those receivers at the top of the hour and the 1004 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 2: state of the Bills roster. Thank you guys for that tweet. 1005 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 2: She can't send it them in, Please keep doing it. 1006 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 2: I love these questions that we're getting. Even a couple 1007 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 2: of just came in. Thank you for that. Don't go anywhere. 1008 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 2: On One Bill's Live, we got a whole whole lot 1009 00:47:28,320 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 2: more for you. Stay white with us. 1010 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:19,919 Speaker 4: These One Bills Live presented by Kalida Health. 1011 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: Welcome on back to One Bill's Live. I'm hosting today. 1012 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 2: Carl Jonds joined alongside Christian pass So, No Brownie, and 1013 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 2: Steve Tasker. They are down at Tampa, Florida for the 1014 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 2: Bills preseason finale. 1015 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,399 Speaker 3: Chris, the weekend is here. Weather's good. 1016 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 2: I'm just so excited for I don't want to look 1017 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 2: past the preseason game, but I'm just so excited for 1018 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:43,319 Speaker 2: football to be back. 1019 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, after that preseason game is done and 1020 00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: the clockheads zero, it's like a flip has switched and 1021 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: it's like we're ready to go. You're obviously not getting 1022 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 1: a game until you know, a full week later, but 1023 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: then it's into that chaos of game day off, then 1024 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: midweek practice, check the injury report, Who are you playing 1025 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 1: next week? I'm very much not wishing away the final 1026 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 1: days of summer, but I am very much like you 1027 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 1: and probably like everyone watching and listening, really excited for 1028 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 1: just football season to be back. College football on Saturdays too, 1029 00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: but also this Bill season. I've said many times is 1030 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,120 Speaker 1: this offseason. There are some young pieces that are going 1031 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:31,879 Speaker 1: to have to earn the right to play and earn 1032 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 1: themselves a spot on this roster. But I think this 1033 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:38,799 Speaker 1: is the best and most complete Bills roster that they've 1034 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 1: had since twenty twenty. 1035 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 3: I'm so happy you mentioned that right there. 1036 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,760 Speaker 2: I told Matt Bovy, sports director over at Channel seven 1037 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,480 Speaker 2: earlier this offseason, he's been here, he's lived in Western 1038 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 2: New York his entire life, and I've been around the 1039 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 2: team since twenty twenty one, and I said, man, I 1040 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,319 Speaker 2: think there's something different about this teams in terms of 1041 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,719 Speaker 2: the names on paper. Obviously, the games on Sundays is 1042 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 2: a much different story. I really like what I see 1043 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 2: in terms of how the roster is constructed. 1044 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 3: Player one through fifty three. 1045 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 2: You mentioned college football, though that's back to back tomorrow, Ireland. 1046 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:13,439 Speaker 3: I would stay in Kansas State. I can't wait. 1047 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 2: I know it's not maybe the big dogs that we're 1048 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 2: gonna get in Week one the following Saturday, but I'll 1049 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 2: take any football. I was watching high school football last week, 1050 00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 2: some Georgia football, Like I got the itch right now. 1051 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 2: I got the itch right now, Chris. I can't wait 1052 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 2: to see the guys. Fine, you wasn't watching high school 1053 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 2: fooball as week worre you Please tell me no, No, 1054 00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 2: I was not. 1055 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 1: I was not. 1056 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 2: See you're more saying than me. Thank you for saying that. 1057 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,360 Speaker 2: We're gonna continue to touch on and we get Stanford 1058 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,800 Speaker 2: Hawaii too. We get Stanford Hawaii this weekend. I think 1059 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 2: we do. 1060 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 3: You know. I love me to Hawaii football. 1061 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 2: I love that, you know, nice eleven pm start, you know, night, 1062 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 2: winding down, watching it with one eye open. That's definitely 1063 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,240 Speaker 2: gonna be me tomorrow, for sure. I want to continue 1064 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 2: to touch on the state of the Bills roster. We 1065 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 2: already touched quarterback as well as running back, the position 1066 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:55,720 Speaker 2: that everyone loves. 1067 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 3: The receivers and boy oh boys. 1068 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 2: Another training camp season where the receivers have been the 1069 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,720 Speaker 2: have taken up a lot of oxygen, and for good reason. 1070 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 2: There's been some players who have impressed, some of who 1071 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 2: have maybe not stepped up to the level that we 1072 00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:14,400 Speaker 2: have expected back in April or May. I want to 1073 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 2: touch with the players who are locks to make this roster. 1074 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,839 Speaker 2: Khalil Shakir, who will not play tomorrow. He is still 1075 00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 2: dealing with a high ankle. Spring Sean McDermot said he 1076 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 2: is still trending in the right direction, so that is 1077 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 2: always good news. Before we go any further, I do 1078 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,840 Speaker 2: want to touch on a player who's had a really, 1079 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 2: really really strong training camp as well as not so 1080 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 2: much preseason, but just a really strong training camp. Second 1081 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,840 Speaker 2: year wide out Keon Coleman. You're someone who has watched 1082 00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 2: them from his collegiate days and now he's here in 1083 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 2: Western New York. Just what have you made of his 1084 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 2: ascension this upcoming this offseason. 1085 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,439 Speaker 3: I guess you could say, yeah, I have been. 1086 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to say a naysayer, but I was 1087 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 1: not particularly high on Keon Coleman because he's different. He 1088 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 1: is not the modern day, super quick, savvy route running separator. 1089 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:05,839 Speaker 1: He's kind of a throwback. He's six three two ten 1090 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: two fifteen, maybe bulked up a little bit, adding more 1091 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 1: weight to his frame this offseason, and he just seems 1092 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 1: more concentrated and more dedicated to his craft of maybe 1093 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 1: just becoming a little bit better getting open. I don't 1094 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,880 Speaker 1: think he's ever gonna be Malik Neighbors or Land McConkey, 1095 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 1: but if he can get open at a higher rate 1096 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 1: than he did last season, and then also starts to dominate. 1097 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:32,239 Speaker 1: I'll say, above the rim on those rebounding throws, the 1098 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 1: back shoulder catches from Josh Allen, then I think he 1099 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 1: can be a very integral part of this everybody eats offense. 1100 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 1: He's kind of the ultimate X factor. If we see 1101 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: much of what we saw from Coleman last year, we 1102 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: know the offense can score thirty points a game and 1103 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: be one of the most efficient units in the league. 1104 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:54,360 Speaker 1: But if Coleman really becomes that dominant presence that offense 1105 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:58,759 Speaker 1: or that defenses excuse me, have to start game game 1106 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 1: planning for, and then you have of Khalil Shakir underneath, 1107 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: you have Josh Palmer potentially down the field, then I 1108 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 1: think this offense can go to whole new heights that 1109 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: we've never seen in terms of efficiency, production and just 1110 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 1: putting points on the board. 1111 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 3: I'm right with you. 1112 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 2: I wouldn't necessarily say I was a complete naysayer or 1113 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 2: an a sceptic, but I did have my concerns in terms. 1114 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 3: Of that archetype. 1115 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 2: You beautifully laid it out in terms of how that 1116 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 2: archetype of receiver isn't really seen in twenty twenty five, 1117 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 2: or at least doesn't excel in this era of football. 1118 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 3: When you think of a bigger. 1119 00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 2: Body guy who doesn't really rely on with separation all 1120 00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 2: too much. Usually those guys, as you know, they get 1121 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 2: kicked into the slot where you're like, okay, well some 1122 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 2: of your your big presidence will be used in that regard. 1123 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 2: But here in Buffalo, well, they have a lot of 1124 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,319 Speaker 2: guys who are best used on the slot, whether that's 1125 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 2: the Khalil Shakira, a Dalton Kincaid, you're Curtis Samuels of 1126 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,879 Speaker 2: the world. So I'm still I still want to see 1127 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 2: it on Sundays. But I will say the highlights and 1128 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 2: the plays that he has made and training him to 1129 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,680 Speaker 2: this point has me encouraged into how he can maybe 1130 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 2: continue to ascend as a player into year two. Once 1131 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,600 Speaker 2: to Josh Palmer, I will say he's been nicked up 1132 00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 2: at training camp, dealing with some injuries, but when he's 1133 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 2: out there, he just smooth, smooth operator. I guess you 1134 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 2: can say he's not going to be an all pro 1135 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: by any means, but his attention to detail and I 1136 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,120 Speaker 2: love watching the guys prepare before practice is one of 1137 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 2: my most fun things to do, just watch how pros 1138 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 2: prepare and how he prepares for practice. It makes all 1139 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 2: the sense in the world and why he's an excellent 1140 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 2: route runner. 1141 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's one that I have really no concerns with, 1142 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 1: and I think it is good to set those correct 1143 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 1: expectations for him, and you did so. I think perfectly 1144 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 1: that I don't think Josh Palmer is going to turn 1145 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 1: into Stepon Diggs with Josh Allen throwing him the football, 1146 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:49,080 Speaker 1: but to then point out his preparation and why he 1147 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,560 Speaker 1: was a productive player as a mid round pick in 1148 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 1: Los Angeles with Justin Herbert the last couple of seasons 1149 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,280 Speaker 1: and he had Mike Williams in front of him, Keenan 1150 00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 1: Allen in front of him, and when he got opportunities, 1151 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: he became that number one target and could win at 1152 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:05,040 Speaker 1: all three levels. I don't have any concerns with Josh Palmer. 1153 00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a steady force at 1154 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: all three levels of the field. And maybe if he 1155 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 1: can bring that downfield element that is like the one 1156 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:16,600 Speaker 1: little nitpicking area that I think it was missing last 1157 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: season in Josh Allen's MVP year, then again that can 1158 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 1: be another catalyst to this offense moving to a new 1159 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 1: level of efficiency, production and just putting points on the board. 1160 00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 3: We know who the top three guys. 1161 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 2: Guys are Khalil Shakir, Kean Coleman as well as Josh Palmer. 1162 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 2: Even Sean McDermott alluded to that at his presser on Tuesday. 1163 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 2: That's not the issue. They have to figure out four 1164 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 2: through seven, four through eight. They have to figure out 1165 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 2: that order. And I guess you can start with Curtis Samuel, 1166 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,719 Speaker 2: someone who they brought in last offseason. Dealt with some 1167 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 2: injuries last year, so flashes, but as we all know, 1168 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:54,760 Speaker 2: your best ability is availability, and he has still struggled 1169 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 2: with that this offseason. 1170 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 3: He is back at practice this week. 1171 00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 2: He wasn't teams drills on Thursday, so that was a 1172 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 2: good sign going forward. Remains to be seen on if 1173 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 2: he plays Saturday against the Buccaneers, but his health has 1174 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 2: been the story, is his entire story here in Western 1175 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 2: New York. I guess, in terms of Curtis Samuel, do 1176 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 2: you think he's a lock to make the roster. Do 1177 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,360 Speaker 2: you think that his skill set is something that's a 1178 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,120 Speaker 2: necessity as to where they can't get rid of him? 1179 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,800 Speaker 2: How do you assess the entire Curtis Samuel experience. 1180 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,320 Speaker 1: It's very enigmatic, and I think anyone would be lying 1181 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: if they told you they knew exactly what the Bill's 1182 00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 1: plans were. I mean, we might not see him tomorrow. 1183 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,359 Speaker 1: Does that mean that the Bills are like we saw 1184 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 1: with Brian Robinson and the Commanders that they're like, hey, 1185 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: we're keeping you on the shelf because we don't want 1186 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,719 Speaker 1: you to get injured because we're gonna trade you, or 1187 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,799 Speaker 1: like you alluded to, does that mean hey, we don't 1188 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 1: want you to get hurt, because absolutely you are the 1189 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:51,360 Speaker 1: new Isaiah McKenzie that maybe brings more running ability to 1190 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,919 Speaker 1: this offense. It's really hard to tell, because, like you said, 1191 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 1: we just haven't seen that much Curtis Samuel through now 1192 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 1: two seasons or at least two off seasons in Buffalo. 1193 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: So I think absolutely, when he's healthy he is a 1194 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 1: wide receiver three or four in this league. We've seen 1195 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,160 Speaker 1: him do that. We've seen him catch you know, screens 1196 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: and around jet sweeps, hit an occasional big play down 1197 00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: the field. He can be that guy. It's just very 1198 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,440 Speaker 1: hard to say, and I bet in the Bill's decision 1199 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 1: making room right now, you probably have a split where 1200 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,919 Speaker 1: some coaches or some decision makers are like, hey, look, 1201 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 1: I think we should trade him. He's not been healthy. 1202 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 1: We don't know what we really have with this player 1203 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,160 Speaker 1: two years in. And there's probably others that are like, no, look, 1204 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 1: he's just trending in the right direction, and we do 1205 00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: need that kind of horizontal element underneath beyond Khalil Shakir, 1206 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 1: and that certainly can be Curtis Samuel just super fascinated 1207 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: with Curtis Samuel. 1208 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 2: He's someone that watched from his days back in Ohio State. 1209 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 2: I will say I'm super glad that he put the 1210 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 2: put the stamp on being Michigan that one year. 1211 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 3: I'm an Ohio guy. 1212 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 2: For everyone who doesn't know so that had me had 1213 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 2: a young CJ through the roof, I thought he was 1214 00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 2: gonna be in a superstar All Pro after seeing that, 1215 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 2: I will make that clear staying in that room. Elijah 1216 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,919 Speaker 2: Moore is someone who there were a lot of question marks. 1217 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 2: There were some excitement with him coming aboard quarterback issues 1218 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 2: in both in New York as well as Cleveland. 1219 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 3: How is that going to turn out? 1220 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,800 Speaker 2: Hey, Josh Allen is much better than anyone he's ever had, 1221 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 2: So you can say, oh, it's just going to work 1222 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 2: here because he has seventeenth thrown him in the pill. 1223 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:20,919 Speaker 3: Now. 1224 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 2: He also dealt with some injuries early on in camp, 1225 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 2: but he hasn't really shown those flashes we saw on 1226 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 2: tape in both Cleveland as well with the Jets. 1227 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 1: I think with more what we're ultimately gonna realize is 1228 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 1: that it's in today's instant gratification society. And I feel 1229 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,560 Speaker 1: like I'm like aging myself by saying that. But with Twitter, 1230 00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,440 Speaker 1: with every single rep we see from practice, the reporters 1231 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 1: do such a good job. It's easy to get bogged 1232 00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 1: down with like over analyzing a training camp practice or 1233 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: a preseason I think similar to Josh Palmer, and maybe 1234 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 1: there's not quite as much of an established nature to 1235 00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: Elijah Moore's game. With this aring offensive line, with Josh 1236 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 1: Allen throwing him in the football, I think Elijah Moore 1237 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 1: can be a productive slot receiver who can also play 1238 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 1: a little bit on the outside. He did it at 1239 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 1: Old Mess, he did it with the Jets and the 1240 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 1: Browns in this offense. So I think at this point 1241 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,960 Speaker 1: and it is correct to say that Elijah Moore has 1242 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 1: not had this you know, Oh my god, this amazing 1243 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 1: summer at Saint John Fisher in Pittsford or in the preseason. 1244 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 1: He has been running routes with backup offensive lineman protecting 1245 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 1: backup quarterback. So I think Elijah Moore, the fact that 1246 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 1: the Bill signed him right after the draft, I think 1247 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: he was kind of their backup plan if they didn't 1248 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: get a receiver that they liked falling to them in 1249 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 1: whether it was round one, two, or three, that he 1250 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:46,280 Speaker 1: was ultimately the guy. I think October we're going to 1251 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:48,919 Speaker 1: completely forget that Elijah Moore did not have a good 1252 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,959 Speaker 1: summer necessarily in terms of creating a lot of buzz 1253 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: for himself, because this is a low four to three 1254 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,919 Speaker 1: guy that runs good routes, that's pretty sneaky good after 1255 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 1: the catch, and is capable of being productive in the 1256 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 1: NFL running with the number ones in the regular season. 1257 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 2: One thing to note about both Curtis Samuel as well 1258 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 2: as Elijah Moore, neither are really big contributors on special teams, 1259 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,720 Speaker 2: which is always important for the depth of your wide 1260 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,760 Speaker 2: receiver room. You're basically saying, these two guys who are 1261 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 2: going to take a jersey on game day are only 1262 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 2: going to play. Let's say twenty twenty five snaps a 1263 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,400 Speaker 2: game at best in a best case scenario and no 1264 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,640 Speaker 2: other way possible. They're not going to help on punt 1265 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,920 Speaker 2: coverage or kickoff, whatever the case may be. So if 1266 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 2: they're making this roster, that means that the Bills have 1267 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 2: supreme confidence in them as receivers receivers first, because they're 1268 01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:39,919 Speaker 2: not going to be a Mac Collins where they're running 1269 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 2: down on punt or kickoff or kickoff return, which I 1270 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 2: do want to make that distinction because this isn't high 1271 01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 2: school or college where you have eighty ninety guys on 1272 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 2: a roster where you can the back half of your 1273 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 2: roster can be special teamers. There's only forty six guys 1274 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 2: who are active, so someone has to run down on kickoff, 1275 01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 2: so it won't be those two. 1276 01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:58,880 Speaker 3: I'll tell you that. Now. 1277 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:02,200 Speaker 2: Elijah More does have some experience at a believe punt return, 1278 01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 2: not a lot. 1279 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,320 Speaker 3: I think that probably dates back to his time at 1280 01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:05,880 Speaker 3: Old Miss. You've got to go back that far. 1281 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 2: But that will be the if they make the team, 1282 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,960 Speaker 2: it is solely based off of their ability to be 1283 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 2: as receivers. And speaking of special teams, Tyroll Shavers who 1284 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 2: has really shined this preseason, even dating back to last 1285 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 2: preseason and at Saint John Fisher, where he's really been 1286 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 2: a player that a lot of fans, myself included, you've 1287 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 2: talked about him as well, where you really impressed what 1288 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 2: he does with the ball in his hands. But Sean 1289 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 2: McDermott made it clear after the first preseason game they 1290 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:36,840 Speaker 2: aren't concerned with his ability to run routes, go down 1291 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,840 Speaker 2: the field, stretch the field in that regard. Can you 1292 01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 2: get a jersey because you can run down on kickoff 1293 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 2: and go tackle somebody in that way. I am so 1294 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,959 Speaker 2: so excited to watch this game tomorrow and see where 1295 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 2: he lines up on those four core units because that 1296 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:52,640 Speaker 2: will tell me a whole lot on how they envisioned 1297 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 2: Tyrol Shavers heading into Tuesdays cutdown Day. 1298 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he is the front runner right now 1299 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 1: to be the wide receiver five or six, to be 1300 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 1: that probably last wide receiver to actually make the fifty 1301 01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 1: three man roster heading into week one because he's been 1302 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:12,000 Speaker 1: developed in the program, he's I think gotten a little bigger. 1303 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,920 Speaker 1: That was always my one, like very specific concern that 1304 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 1: the last couple of years he's like six' four and 1305 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 1: he was like barely two hundred. Pounds he looks like 1306 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,080 Speaker 1: he's added some upper body strength to deal with press 1307 01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: coverage and just the physicality that you're going to get 1308 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 1: throughout the route that refs are not going to call 1309 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 1: in THE, nfl and like you, mentioned having that ability to, say, yeah, 1310 01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely i'm going to be playing on fourth down as. 1311 01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 1: Well SO i think at this Point, SHAVERS i don't 1312 01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:36,560 Speaker 1: want to call him a, lot BUT i think he 1313 01:02:36,640 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: has the leg up to be one of the last 1314 01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:41,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers on the roster because of all those. Reasons 1315 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: he can really bring a lot to the field on, first, second, 1316 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:46,000 Speaker 1: third and fourth down for The. 1317 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,440 Speaker 2: Bills, YEAH i don't think The bills want to subject 1318 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:50,160 Speaker 2: him to waivers this, year BUT i do want.

Chanald he is someone that 1366 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 1: is like six foot six' one two twenty five almost. 1367 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 1: Two thirty he's really built like a, running back, and 1368 01:04:57,360 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 1: weirdly he has like almost the Same Measurements saquon Barkley 1369 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 1: and i'm. NOT gonna, i mean like that's kind of 1370 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:08,440 Speaker 1: where the. Comparison Ends but chanalt is a rugged yards 1371 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,280 Speaker 1: after the. CATCH monster i want to see him get 1372 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:13,479 Speaker 1: a ball on a, tunnel screen give him a ball 1373 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:15,320 Speaker 1: on a, jet sweep get the ball out of the 1374 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:19,520 Speaker 1: quarterback's hands in, a hurry and just watch defenders pinball off. 1375 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,640 Speaker 1: Of him in his second Season, in jacksonville he forced, 1376 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:27,520 Speaker 1: twenty misstackles and, you're wondering is twenty miss tackles? A lot? 1377 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:32,000 Speaker 1: Last Season Combine khalil shakir forced eighteen. Miss tackles so 1378 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,440 Speaker 1: that gives you a sense of the type of yards 1379 01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 1: after the catch ability that. He has and then the 1380 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: next PLAYER that i think does give something different is 1381 01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 1: kind of been featured a lot On, hard Knocks. kJ 1382 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 1: hammler he is that smaller Just. Downfield berner he can 1383 01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 1: take the lid off a defense and even if he 1384 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: is just running, clearing routes and you can speak to 1385 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,400 Speaker 1: the impact as a former defensive back to those clearing 1386 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,920 Speaker 1: routes have on. A defense i think he brings that 1387 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,680 Speaker 1: more than anyone else On this. Bill's roster we didn't 1388 01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 1: get to see him work out before. The draft when 1389 01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 1: he was coming Out Of penn state in, twenty twenty 1390 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,320 Speaker 1: but he looks exceptionally fast on. The field we saw 1391 01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 1: the long Touchdown For mike white in that first. Preseason game. 1392 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:12,439 Speaker 1: THOSE two i think if players could walk into these 1393 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:16,640 Speaker 1: roster cut rooms and say. Sell yourself chanel COULD say 1394 01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 1: i am the rugged yards after the catch type that 1395 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,600 Speaker 1: this team kind of leaned into yards after the catch. 1396 01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 1: Last Season kJ hamler CAN say i can just run 1397 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:29,360 Speaker 1: clearing routes and lift those safeties and deep sinking corners 1398 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 1: down the field to create more room at the. 1399 01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 2: Intermediate, level yeah you touched it, on SPEED and i 1400 01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 2: can speak on that as a. Defensive back my hamstring 1401 01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:40,040 Speaker 2: still hurt thinking about freshman year having A guard Louisville 1402 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 2: and clemson and the LSU's of the World. In, miami's 1403 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 2: yeah my hamstring. Still HURTS so i don't envy those. 1404 01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 2: Days whatsoever calves. Hurting too i'll tell you that in 1405 01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:51,240 Speaker 2: terms of the, pass catchers you can't talk About the 1406 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 2: bills weapons without speaking on their twenty twenty three first 1407 01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 2: Round Pick. Dalton kincaid where you're one, set records your 1408 01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 2: two bit of a step back for a litany. Of 1409 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:05,760 Speaker 2: reasons you can say it, was, usage injuries himself not reaching. That, 1410 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 2: standard obviously some crucial drops and. KEY moments, i guess 1411 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 2: how do you Envision the kincaid trajectory going in, year 1412 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,479 Speaker 2: Three because i'm of the Belief the bills have a lot. 1413 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 3: Of plans for him this. Upcoming, season. 1414 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 1: Yeah he is kind of a like we know that 1415 01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:27,320 Speaker 1: he's going, to play but he's kind of like reminds 1416 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,120 Speaker 1: Me Of curtis samuel that we don't. REALLY know, i 1417 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 1: mean you think that that he's going to be a 1418 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,400 Speaker 1: big part of. THE offense i think based on what 1419 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 1: happened in twenty twenty three and then early in twenty 1420 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 1: twenty four before, his injury they threw him the football. 1421 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: A Lot, josh allen he was the first or the 1422 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,720 Speaker 1: second read in the progression quite often because he does 1423 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 1: have that ability to separate against linebackers. And safeties he's 1424 01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 1: kind of that mismatch tight end where he's not going 1425 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 1: to give you much as. A BLOCKER and i Know That, 1426 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:57,840 Speaker 1: brandon bean, you know kind Of nudged kinkaid in the 1427 01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 1: direction of getting stronger so you can be more durable 1428 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: and you can move people in the. Run game but 1429 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 1: they drafted him to get open underneath and at the 1430 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:09,080 Speaker 1: intermediate Level For. Josh ALLEN so I THINK i'll i 1431 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: don't KNOW if i totally agree with YOU that i 1432 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 1: think they have a huge plans, For him but everything 1433 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:16,040 Speaker 1: that we've seen when he's been on the field and, 1434 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,040 Speaker 1: BEEN healthy i think you're probably right that over, the 1435 01:08:19,080 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 1: middle as that you know it's third, and six he's 1436 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: gonna run an eight. Yard comeback they're gonna have him 1437 01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 1: as one of the top target getters in this offense 1438 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:28,559 Speaker 1: when he's healthy. 1439 01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:31,560 Speaker 3: This, season yeah we can actually address this a. 1440 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 2: Little bit so THIS offseason i kind of ranked the 1441 01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 2: most important pass catchers For the Bills at kin k 1442 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:39,799 Speaker 2: THIRD and i had in terms of like the importance 1443 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 2: on the, High end i'm not talking about a regular 1444 01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:43,559 Speaker 2: season Game.

The, field well 1612 01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 2: there was a lot right there and a lot of. 1613 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:14,880 Speaker 2: Good stuff question did you want to go? 1614 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:14,960 Speaker 3: With? 1615 01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:18,080 Speaker 1: That, CHRIS yeah i think butch. ALWAYS has i mean 1616 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 1: he brings the energy every. SINGLE call I mean i've 1617 01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 1: been on the show as a bunch now and he's 1618 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:25,280 Speaker 1: usually a caller makes. GOOD points i think the paying his. 1619 01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:27,280 Speaker 1: Due's point for as much as that can, seem like 1620 01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: oh that's, old school you don't need to, DO that 1621 01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 1: i Think the Bills and sean McDermott really. Value that 1622 01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 1: where you, stay dedicated you trust. The process We've heard, 1623 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 1: sean McDermott that's been his. Core philosophy and one last 1624 01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:42,160 Speaker 1: POINT that i want to bring, up too is That 1625 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,800 Speaker 1: tyrrel Shaver's Undrafted San. Diego state, You're, thinking okay he's just. 1626 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 1: AN overachiever i went back. TO look I think i 1627 01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 1: did this. Last year he was the number twelve overall 1628 01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:57,000 Speaker 1: high school recruit, at receiver in the same Class As 1629 01:16:57,080 --> 01:17:00,680 Speaker 1: devonte Smith And cdee lamb And. T hagen so this 1630 01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 1: is not someone he started his Career, at alabama things 1631 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 1: didn't work, out there Transferred To San diego state and 1632 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,120 Speaker 1: was really productive for as much as he would be 1633 01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:11,479 Speaker 1: an OVERACHIEVER by, nfl standards Because Of San diego state 1634 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,439 Speaker 1: and because he, was undrafted this is someone that at eighteen, 1635 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 1: years old the entire country thought he was going to 1636 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:18,920 Speaker 1: eventually be a first or a second. Round PICK so 1637 01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 1: i think paying, his, dues yes he's, done that and 1638 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:24,560 Speaker 1: there is pretty good nuance to his game as a. 1639 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 1: Route runner at six. Foot four he really is kind of, 1640 01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:31,200 Speaker 1: that consummate trust the process type of developmental PLAYER that 1641 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,760 Speaker 1: i think, you know everyone would agree has earned the 1642 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: right to ultimately see some targets in the regular season at. 1643 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 2: WIDE receiver i know, in sports the word deserve gets 1644 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:43,160 Speaker 2: thrown around, a lot and there's nothing that you truly deserve. 1645 01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:45,559 Speaker 2: In sports is kind of, just TAKEN but i will 1646 01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:49,000 Speaker 2: say it is awesome for the morale of or locker 1647 01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:50,959 Speaker 2: room when you see a guy like that get rewarded 1648 01:17:51,000 --> 01:17:52,840 Speaker 2: for the grind that he has. PUT in i mean 1649 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,040 Speaker 2: that's Something that bush touched on and you just mentioned. 1650 01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:58,600 Speaker 2: AS well i think that's. What matters, of course deserved 1651 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:00,880 Speaker 2: and earned is, tough BECAUSE like, i mean in this, 1652 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 2: in sports none of that stuff, is guaranteed like. Nothing 1653 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:05,840 Speaker 2: IS but i think that would be great for a. 1654 01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 2: Locker room and then on the other side of the 1655 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 2: bar where he touched on the defensive backs and wanted 1656 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:13,519 Speaker 2: to see what. They got i'm truly locked In To. 1657 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 2: DORIAN strong i was high on him coming out of 1658 01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 2: the draft Out Of. VIRGINIA tech i thought that his 1659 01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:21,120 Speaker 2: athletic profile and what he put on tape was something 1660 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:22,920 Speaker 2: That the bills will want and lo and behold they. 1661 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,280 Speaker 2: Drafted him this, training camp he's been up and down. 1662 01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:29,720 Speaker 2: Per SE so i want to see a how does 1663 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 2: he look AND be i don't think he's a. 1664 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 3: GUARANTEE lock i know this more than likely they keep 1665 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:35,360 Speaker 3: him on. 1666 01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:38,360 Speaker 2: The fifty three man roster because he's a rookie and 1667 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 2: you don't want to give up on a guy. THAT 1668 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:41,599 Speaker 2: quickly i Think Of alex also in a few, years 1669 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:44,559 Speaker 2: back who got scooped up By. The Patriots but i'm 1670 01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:47,719 Speaker 2: really intrigued with what he has going on because there's 1671 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,360 Speaker 2: been DAYS where, i, THOUGHT yes i see him sticking 1672 01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:51,960 Speaker 2: around in, this league and there's some days where he's 1673 01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:54,080 Speaker 2: a little bit rougher around the edges out there. 1674 01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:57,800 Speaker 1: At, Cornerback yeah i'm gonna Borrow for butcher's point, AGAIN 1675 01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 1: too i wouldn't Hate If bobby babbage did throw some 1676 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,679 Speaker 1: game plans at these. Young players you know that you're 1677 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:07,599 Speaker 1: not having the starting defensive unit, out there then probably 1678 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 1: none of them will play. At all maybe some of 1679 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,719 Speaker 1: the rookies, up front like the rotational pieces this, upcoming 1680 01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 1: season MOST. Likely, Tj Sanders, Dean walker but in terms 1681 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: of the, d backs put some more on. Their plate 1682 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 1: show them, and, say look we're, you know if it's third, 1683 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,120 Speaker 1: and long we're gonna run this disguise coverage and see 1684 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:25,000 Speaker 1: if they can be in the. Right spots don't, just, 1685 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 1: say hey you're gonna go out there and just. Play 1686 01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:30,360 Speaker 1: football give them a little bit of a test run 1687 01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:32,600 Speaker 1: or an audition to what it would be like if 1688 01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:35,880 Speaker 1: they ultimately have to play Because Maybe dorian strong will 1689 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:38,639 Speaker 1: have to actually play in the Month of september given 1690 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:41,040 Speaker 1: the injuries. At CORNER so i like that Point. From 1691 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:43,680 Speaker 1: butch Whether It's, dorian STRONG who i, ALSO liked I 1692 01:19:43,720 --> 01:19:46,320 Speaker 1: Loved jordan hancock. His versatility we don't know if he's 1693 01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 1: going to play yet with. That Shoulder Even, derek forest 1694 01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: who they signed in free agency and has made plays 1695 01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:54,200 Speaker 1: IN the nfl and has been a productive player, at 1696 01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:58,160 Speaker 1: safety give them, an actual real run through in this 1697 01:19:58,320 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 1: Game on saturday as to what it would look like 1698 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 1: if they play in the. 1699 01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,680 Speaker 2: Regular season bush from The, east side. MY dog i 1700 01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,840 Speaker 2: really appreciated, that question. That comment whatever you want to 1701 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,000 Speaker 2: describe that as all that. Was good it was so 1702 01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:11,519 Speaker 2: much energy. With that staying with the state Of the, 1703 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:14,280 Speaker 2: bills roster might as well segue that right into the defensive. 1704 01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:20,519 Speaker 2: Back Room, christian benford he's, next UP and i know 1705 01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:22,800 Speaker 2: that next up Here In Western. New york you're gonna 1706 01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 2: say what he's, been like he's been. This good well, 1707 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:27,439 Speaker 2: FOR one i think this past month he's looked like a, 1708 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,679 Speaker 2: Different player like not just on, the field. BUT verbally 1709 01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 2: i can hear him now like for those who, Don't 1710 01:20:33,880 --> 01:20:36,320 Speaker 2: Know Like christian benfort isn't. A talker he doesn't really talk. 1711 01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:37,800 Speaker 2: A lot like one on one you can get him 1712 01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:40,040 Speaker 2: to speak a. Little bit he's Not Quite matt, malono 1713 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:42,679 Speaker 2: quiet but like he does not not really. THAT vocal 1714 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 2: i hear him now on, the SIDELINES which i think 1715 01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:47,760 Speaker 2: is very intriguing for the next step in. HIS development 1716 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:51,439 Speaker 2: i guess when you watch forty seven, this year what 1717 01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:54,479 Speaker 2: is what are you expecting from him and how high 1718 01:20:54,560 --> 01:20:55,320 Speaker 2: do you think he can take. 1719 01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 1: HIS game i think he could become him a top 1720 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:00,720 Speaker 1: five to seven cornerback in the league and be one 1721 01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,719 Speaker 1: of the more. Unique cases not just because he Played, 1722 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 1: at villanova not just because he was a sixth. Round 1723 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 1: pick we've seen some later round guys become all, pro 1724 01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:11,879 Speaker 1: types but the fact that we've seen him make plays 1725 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:14,680 Speaker 1: and be instinctive and zone to plant and drive on. 1726 01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:18,680 Speaker 1: The football we've seen him run, with bigger faster or 1727 01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:23,879 Speaker 1: smaller and quicker, wide receivers and he's a, tremendous TACKLER 1728 01:21:24,000 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 1: and i think that's what ultimately got him onto the 1729 01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 1: field early on and got him those reps With the 1730 01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 1: ones during his rookie season in twenty twenty two and 1731 01:21:32,920 --> 01:21:36,799 Speaker 1: ultimately led to him starting as a sixth round Corner 1732 01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:40,400 Speaker 1: in week one As Opposite. Trey white so he's SOMEONE 1733 01:21:40,439 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 1: that i think can Give the bills everything that they want. 1734 01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 1: To do if they want to play more. Man coverage 1735 01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:48,920 Speaker 1: with his new assistant coach on the, Defensive Side, ryan 1736 01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 1: nielsen that has a extensive man, COVERAGE background I Think 1737 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:54,800 Speaker 1: christian benford can. Do that he can make plays on. 1738 01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:57,519 Speaker 1: The football and for as much as teams want to 1739 01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 1: stress the outside of the field to get players in space, 1740 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:05,559 Speaker 1: outside pitches wide receiver screens because they want to target 1741 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,519 Speaker 1: those corners that don't want, to tackle That's Not. Christian 1742 01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 1: benford he is, a great very sure tackler. As well 1743 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:14,440 Speaker 1: and it wouldn't surprise me if he stays healthy. 1744 01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:15,320 Speaker 3: By the end of. 1745 01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:18,880 Speaker 1: The season after this new contract that, he signs he 1746 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 1: starts to finally get that dude NATIONALLY that i think 1747 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:23,720 Speaker 1: he's deserved for a while as a top five to 1748 01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:24,559 Speaker 1: seven cornerback IN. 1749 01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:26,880 Speaker 2: THE nfl i just want to see him travel a, 1750 01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:28,439 Speaker 2: little BIT and i Know the bills play a lot 1751 01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:29,800 Speaker 2: of his own and They don't they want to do 1752 01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:32,080 Speaker 2: a lot of disguising with. THEIR cornerbacks i just think 1753 01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:34,200 Speaker 2: back To The Los angeles, rams game fourth, and, five 1754 01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 2: fourth maybe third, and five the pukakuaz screen Touchdown JaMarcus 1755 01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:41,439 Speaker 2: ing regarded him Instead Of. CHRISTIAN benford i just want 1756 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:43,679 Speaker 2: to see more example and he. Has travel i've watched 1757 01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:45,960 Speaker 2: the film back. This offseason he does follow wide receiver 1758 01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:48,120 Speaker 2: ones a. LITTLE bit i just want to see him 1759 01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,600 Speaker 2: do a little bit more this. Upcoming year now, BEYOND 1760 01:22:50,680 --> 01:22:52,120 Speaker 2: him i think there are a lot of. Question marks 1761 01:22:52,120 --> 01:22:53,760 Speaker 2: obviously we talked about at the top of. The show 1762 01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:55,880 Speaker 2: we don't know the Status Of trey white at. The 1763 01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:57,840 Speaker 2: moment we don't know the severity of his injury or 1764 01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:00,840 Speaker 2: exactly what the injury is at, This MOMENT so i 1765 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 2: want to push him to the side for a. Second 1766 01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:06,599 Speaker 2: Here The max harrison conversation is very intriguing because we 1767 01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:09,280 Speaker 2: also don't know the severity or where he's going to 1768 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:09,960 Speaker 2: come back from his. 1769 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:12,000 Speaker 3: Knee sprain. 1770 01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:15,439 Speaker 2: In, your eyes do you think this is a player 1771 01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:17,360 Speaker 2: and you evaluated him coming Out of kentucky for the 1772 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:21,240 Speaker 2: past few years, Or so in an, ideal scenario what 1773 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,719 Speaker 2: does he bring To this bill's defense that will present 1774 01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:27,479 Speaker 2: something different that they haven't had in the past elite. 1775 01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:31,360 Speaker 1: LEVEL athleticism i think that was the biggest key that 1776 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:35,040 Speaker 1: for so many other roles on. This team entering, the 1777 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,639 Speaker 1: draft it, Was, like hey they just need to raise 1778 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:42,080 Speaker 1: the floor at, wide receiver, at linebacker, you know along the, 1779 01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:45,679 Speaker 1: offensive line, defensive front. AT corner i Thought the bills 1780 01:23:45,720 --> 01:23:48,679 Speaker 1: needed to aim to raise the Ceiling And max harriston 1781 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:53,120 Speaker 1: with the four two, eight speed with the extreme twitchiness 1782 01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 1: to plant and drive on the football or just run 1783 01:23:55,240 --> 01:23:57,960 Speaker 1: man coverage and just stick With someone that was obviously 1784 01:23:58,040 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 1: a problem As the bills dealt with injuries in the 1785 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 1: cornerback room, last season and really even before, the injuries 1786 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:05,160 Speaker 1: they were not the best team that had to face 1787 01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:09,240 Speaker 1: quality separators when they had when they couldn't. Play ZONE 1788 01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 1: so i think That's what harrison ultimately brings and. VERY 1789 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:15,559 Speaker 1: quickly i think we've talked so Much About. TYRREL shavers 1790 01:24:16,280 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 1: I Think JaMarcus ingram is Like The tyrrell shavers of the. 1791 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 1: Cornerback room he, was undrafted he made, his mark and 1792 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,640 Speaker 1: he's actually made more plays in the regular Season. Than 1793 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:29,720 Speaker 1: shavers obviously he's gotten. More opportunities he seems like that 1794 01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 1: other player that's paid his dues doesn't look. The part 1795 01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,680 Speaker 1: wasn't a high draft pick, at all doesn't have a, 1796 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,679 Speaker 1: you know a four to four or a forty inch 1797 01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:41,400 Speaker 1: vertical on. His resume but it's kind of that trust 1798 01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 1: the processed PLAYER where i Think the bills could maybe 1799 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:47,639 Speaker 1: lean on him early on and get quality results from 1800 01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:50,360 Speaker 1: him as someone that's been on this roster and really 1801 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:51,800 Speaker 1: knows this defense like the back of. 1802 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,240 Speaker 2: His hand he's also a player who has played a 1803 01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:55,720 Speaker 2: lot of, special TEAMS which i think will go a 1804 01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:57,599 Speaker 2: long way in his case for making the fifty three.
